Name of Commissioner:
Red Star Costumes
Website/C.com gallery:
Character commissioned and series/video game (please include if this was the entire costume, just a jacket, prop, accessory, wig, etc.):
Rikku from Final Fantasy 10-2 (entire costume)
Links to picture(s) of your commissioned item:
Can check out my profile for my Rikku costume section, should have more pictures uploaded soon.
Timeline (how long your order took to process):
I commissioned the costume about May 2009 and was hand delivered on Friday of Otakon 2009.
Describe your Experience. Pros, Cons, Comments.
: Rikku was the first costume I ever owned/commissioned, as Otakon 2009 was my first convention. I knew nothing of cosplay or what I was doing. I really wanted to go to an anime convention and heard dressing up made a convention. So I searched through commissioners and emailed around 20. I only had two responses. Redstar was one of them and seemed to be the best quality for example pictures. Very friendly, kept up with emails, updates, and even sent invoices. She was attending Otakon so even offered to hand deliver it to save on shipping - though since I used paypal payments, I had to pay extra for paypal fees as she requested that. The costume was delivered the morning of the Friday convention so I was able to wear my costume.
The cons are, the boots fell apart the moment I slipped them on. All the white paint on the boots just flew off and went all over the hotel room, it was like projectile. I called her on the phone and had her come up and look at them. She said she did not know what happened, she put some clear nail polish on the boots and said to give them back to her Sunday and she would fix them and mail me new boots. The problem was, my flight left at Sunday 5am and considering it was my first convention, by the time I was done with the Cosplay, it was like Sunday 2am when I got home/done partying, so was unable to deliver it. During the convention, wearing the boots proved very painful. The construction was made very poorly as more parts of the boots fell apart, including the inside lining. I wore socks, but the inside was so sharp from materials, it cut through my socks and gave me several wounds, still to this day I have many scars around my ankles that the boots have left me. They were also uncomfortable to wear. The boots looked OWFUL and had many people comment on how poorly they looked, asking me if I was in a fight or something. As for the costume itself, the skirt was too short and kept riding up when I walked, so I spent most of the time holding my skirt down. The bra top stretched just by wearing it for an hour by 3-4 inches and I had to safety pin it (not from being too small, it just stretched on it's own), their was a lot of empty space in the breast area so I had to use a lot of tape to prevent from popping out, which looked really bad. The sleeves were to large for my arm and kept falling down my arm and had to be constantly brought back up. The wig was well made, but heavy. In general the costume was very cute and I liked it, but the mishaps were too many. The worse part was the price, I felt at the time it was normal until I looked at more commisioners prices and the marketplace for costumes. I paid a total of $380.00 dollars!! Just for a wig, bra top, skirt, scarf, sleeves and boots. WAY overpriced and I will not commission from her again, because of her prices, I felt robbed, considering other comissioners were only asking around $180, used costumes were between $40 and $90, even Ebay was cheaper. I am even embarassed to tell others what I paid because the costume does not look worth over $60 dollars. I asked for a qoute on just a plain blue coat after she made my Rikku and she wanted over $200 dollars. When I asked many others, they asked for under $100 and gave a detailed breakdown on what each material cost them and what they charged per hour, Redstar does not do this, and they were just as good. After Otakon, a few weeks later, I did mail the boots back, costing about $13 dollars. I contemplated whether to or not, if it would be worth it, since I was out even more money
shipping it back. I asked for it to be done by NYAF 2009 but she did not make the deadline. I said it was fine, I would wear something else. As far as I know, she is still working on the boots.
Final Grade:
On the final note, unless she lowers her prices and improves on making boots, I don't believe her costumes are worth the prices.

Colonial Candle Updates its Look
January 3, 2012,
A rendering of a new showroom.
Colonial Candle is unveiling a fresh look during the winter gift markets that includes updated candle labels and packaging, a new showroom design and contemporary display fixtures.
"For more than a century, Colonial Candle has set the standard for premium candles and on-trend fragrances, and we're honored to bring our retail partners a new, updated look designed to appeal to their customers," said Beth Sturm, Colonial Candle director of brand development.
Working with interior designer Jim Weinberg, Colonial Candle has transformed the showrooms to complement the brand's new look. Weinberg has worked on personal friend Giorgio Armani's home decor line and continues to work on celebrity and high-profile clients' homes, as well as high-end commercial projects including the Trump Towers Atlanta. "I love Colonial Candle's history ... it is exciting to design their showroom presentation for the 21st century," Weinberg said.
Colonial Candle is also introducing display fixtures designed to attract customers while maximizing selling space, as well as new tower and wall fixtures that feature sleek styling in white with stainless steel accents. The new fixtures will be available to order during winter markets.
The company will also debut three candle lines, including the Destinations collection that features fragrances evocative of vacation getaways around the globe; the company's first luxury line called The Collection by Colonial Candle, featuring five new premium fragrances in three-wick, 16-ounce candles; and a new fall and holiday collection featuring 10 new trend-driven fragrances that reflect favorite scents and memories of the seasons.

Takeaways From The Yahoo! Investor Day: The Focus Moves To Display Monetization
Posted by Michael Greene on June 2, 2010
- 407 Recommendations
- 2 comments
I spent last Wednesday at the Yahoo! investor day conference in Silicon Valley where Yahoo! execs outlined the future of one of interactive marketing's largest players. Yahoo! spent a large part of the day on its content and audience, touting its efforts in customization, mobile, and social integration and demoing a slick and creative web-based email client for the iPad. It was nice to see Yahoo! show off some content innovation, but what I (and I suspect many of the financial analysts in the room) were really interested in was Yahoo!'s approach to advertising and its revenue projections. That's not to say keeping and growing its audience isn't key to Yahoo!'s advertising offering. Yahoo! is as close as the web has to a "must buy", TV-scale property and that in and of itself is a strong incentive for media buyers to keep pumping dollars its way. Still, the future of Yahoo! as well as the broader online media industry isn't just about obtaining the largest audience, it's also about effective monetization.
Yahoo!'s own projections bear this out. Let's take a look at some numbers presented by Yahoo! CFO Tim Morse:
That +4-5% number labeled as "volume" is what Yahoo! expects to get from its content and user experience initiatives. The +6-7% that Yahoo! labels as "yield" is all about monetization. Yes, scale and audience engagement are going to be significant contributors to Yahoo!'s revenue growth, but even more important will be convincing marketers that an ad on Yahoo! is worth more than it is today. Some of this will come simply as the economy turns around and demand for advertising grows. Still, it's going to take more than just passive efforts from Yahoo! to hit its projections. So how can Yahoo! do this? I see two core components:
- Enabling creative online advertising to shine. Much discussion of "brand-friendly" online advertising focuses on keeping banner ads away from uncontrolled social environments, pornography, and other forms of undesirable content. Content quality is undeniably part of the equation for many brand marketers, but the fact remains that few online publishers offer the same rich, medium-appropriate creative experiences common on TV and in print. Static banners and standard rich media placements aren't enough for many top brand marketers. Yahoo! is responding by emphasizing its in-house creative services and opening up new areas of its site (such as the log-in page) to rich media advertisements and bold full-page takeovers.
- Executing on technology investments. As Yahoo! focuses on better serving high-CPM brand advertisers, it can't afford to takes its eye off the bigger picture. Higher-value creative will only affect a small slice of Yahoo!'s inventory and Yahoo! will have to find more efficient and effective ways to target customers using both its own data and third-party information all while preparing for the complex value-chain of "bid-based" display media buying. Yahoo! reports already seeing some yield improvements through the implementation of its Right Media exchange for non-guaranteed inventory and audience-based sales efforts; however, reaching its goals will require Yahoo! to roll out similar improvements on the guaranteed inventory side. This begins with the implementation of Yahoo!'s long-awaited APT platform across all US guaranteed inventory. This will allow Yahoo! to not only better target audiences and forecast inventory availability, but should also enable Yahoo! to optimize for publisher yield across guaranteed and non-guaranteed buys.
For Yahoo! to thrive again, it is going to have to both maintain its leadership in serving brand advertisers as well as execute on its advertising technology initiatives. I'm confident Yahoo! will succeed on the former, but Yahoo!'s recent history has left me somewhat skeptical of its ability to execute in the ad technology arena. So will Yahoo! buck the trend this time? It might not have a choice. The online media ecosystem is entering a period of tremendous change, both for the marketer but even more so for the publisher. New methods of media buying will necessitate new methods of media selling and online publishers need to be prepared. Be on the lookout for more research on this topic coming soon.
Yahoo have made projections
Comment from Niki Scevak (not verified) on Wed, 06/02/2010 - 20:41
Yahoo have made projections on how they will grow display ad pricing in the past as well.
When Microsoft launched its takeover, Yahoo management shopped around a presentation to the investment community that assumed revenue per page would rise 15% in each of 08 and 09. From Yahoo's most recent annual report (specifically page 35) we can see that revenue per page decreased by 6% in 2008 and 16% in 2009.
Very insightful

Thanks for all the birthday wishes and presents, pups! I tried to say thank you last night, but Dogster is apparently FULL of fleas. I don't know how much I trust this place anymore...
We're not getting kicked outta this Dogster place, pups!! Can you believe it!?!? After all Momma's hard work setting up the forums AND starting a new blog for me BOL!! That's ok, we're happy to stay here as long as everything is working fine. And the forums will stay up.

Well, pups, Momma figured she'd better get me a blog since everyone else is doing it. I followed some folks already, but Momma isn't feeling too hot tonight so she might have missed a few. Here's my blog:

"Retailers are trying to make smartphones work for them instead of against them," according to Wall Street Journal article Can Texting Save Stores? "ËœGeofencing' Lets.
Have you ever looked for a product, and wandered aimlessly through the grocery store trying to find it? Or, more likely, tried to find a.
Staying top of mind with your shoppers can be a challenge. Why not leverage a habit that they are accustomed to?
Around 84 percent of shoppers use some form of shopping list* and increasingly these list makers are leveraging their mobile devices with digital shopping lists. Digital shopping lists can help your store stay in front of customers as they create their list at home or on the go.
Point Inside developed a digital shopping list for the Meijer Find-it app that allows shoppers to search for products, add them to their list, and find deals and coupons. As an added bonus, each product location is mapped to the aisle level making finding (and buying) each and every item easy.
Since 79% of smartphone shoppers use their phone to help them shop**, having an app with a digital shopping list can put you ahead of the competition and increase your customer engagement before shoppers even arrive at your store. […]
Welcome to the new Point Inside website! We've come a long way in the past two years.
Our new website outlines all the new and exciting things we're doing.
We're excited to publicly announce the Point Inside Interact™ platform. Interact has transformed the shopping experience by enabling shoppers and retailers to proactively engage each other through smartphones at every point along the purchase path. From initial research and product discovery to the creation of shopping lists and in-store product locations, Interact helps retailers connect with customers. There is more about Interact on the website and in upcoming posts. […]
The Meijer Find-It App powered by Point Inside was recently featured in Mobile Marketer.
Since the release of the Meijer Find-It app fall of 2010, the app has been used to analyze customer behavior to provide better and more personalized service to increase sales and customer loyalty.
Point Inside was tapped to create the app using its Interact Platform to combine indoor mapping, micro-location services and customer engagement. The resulting app allows shoppers to access sales, view pertinent information and pinpoint the location of more than 300,000 items in the Meijer retail supercenter using their smartphones. […]
This week's blog is about one of Point Inside's partner apps, Meijer Find-It. This app is a total savior inside Meijer stores across the country, giving you everything needed for a painless shopping trip, right on your phone. It not only has a map, but you can also find Meijer stores nearest to you, and view special offers right in the app. As if that was not cool enough, there is also a parking reminder for help navigating those massive Meijer parking lots. I was lucky enough to be on vacation in Grand Haven, Michigan, so I got a chance to test out the app for myself.
Really, the best way to describe this app is it's like having a personal Meijer associate right there with you for your entire shopping trip. From the moment I parked I used the parking reminder to help find my car after checking out. Once in the store, I typed in the first item on my shopping list (which happened to be Nacho Cheese Doritos), hit the search button, and I was off. Not only did a map come up of the entire store, but then a pin dropped right where I found my beloved chips. Once I finished up finding the rest of the items on my list, I decided to poke around the "Sale" section to see if I could scope out any deals, and voi-la, I had a virtual listing of all the current sale items. I was beginning to wonder what this app couldn't do"¦
To sum things up, Meijer put a lot of time and effort into this app, and it shows. The experience when using it is refined and smooth, and the learning curve takes nearly no time at all. I recommend this app to any would-be Meijer shopper looking to make their shopping a little easier, and save some money at the same time.
Have you ever been shopping and wondered "Where is x?" Who hasn't? Now, for the first time, you can see the exact locations of products.

Together Again One Day
The day they laid you down to sleep
I prayed to the Lord, your soul he'll keep
Until the appointed day and time
when together we'll meet, and all will be fine
With all God's creatures great and small
go run and play now, have a ball
No more aches, and no more pain
just bright sunshine, no more rain
Rest in peace, for now best friend
cradled in God's arms to the end
Dream of that special day and time
when we'll meet at the Bridge one last time
Although we'll be separated for a long time
we'll be together then and all will be fine
We'll cross Rainbow Bridge side by side
with a soft warm feeling deep down inside
Once again then, all will be fine
we're together forever till the end of time .
Hi Dears! I can't believe I have been chosen!
Thank you Dogster! I can see that this has lifted my mom's spirits because.....
it's only been 2 months and 7 days since mom and dad helped me cross over, ya know?
This is such an honor, dears!
I wanna say Hayy to my Rotties Rule furiends! (waving)
Oh, they are all so special! They have been so good to this "Nottie" (as we call the non rotties there, BOL) And a Special Thanks to them for accepting me for who I am and loving me so much!
And a very Special Hayy to KrackerJack, who went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and welcome there.
And to all the Angels here on Dogster:
Come find me and Let's hang out! You can't miss me, I'm cheering excitedly with my pink pom poms!
I love every dog and cat here on Dogster...just like I loved every animal I ever met in life!
All together now:
2 snaps and a twist:)
It's mom and dad
We miss you SO much!
It's just.....
so "raw" still.
We don't really know what to say? Except we love and adore you!
Have a fantastic Easter in Heaven our Pride and Joy!
So much love,
Mom and Dad

IN THIS AUCTION we are pleased to offer a framed Italian Painted Ex-Voto from 1917. The Italian Soldier, Domenico Rosso offers his prayers to Jesus on the Cross and to the Madonna and Child. On bended knee, with hands clasped in prayer we see our World War I soldier praying - perhaps for the end of that terrible war. The images of the kneeling soldier, the barren setting, and the ominous gray dust all contribute to the haunting quality that is exhibited in this wonderfully painted watercolor. Both of the icons appear to be cut out printed images which have been placed on the painting. The G.R. stands for Grazie Ricevute which means to "Give Thanks for Favors or Miracles Received".

Here is the Dialog for the entire series (believe me it is true): kurosaki-kun, Getsuga Tenshou. That is it
The world is a large place, but yet All of the bad guys in this anime attack only one small Japanese town (the Americans must be annoyed by this)
All of the bad guys have this weird interest in the main character (a bit gay to me)
After a lot of fighting it is ...
Second Greatest Anime of All TimeMy second favorite anime of all time. It has everything. ACTION, humor, romance, horror, suspense, sadness, EVERYTHING you could ever ask for. I'll tell you right now, start this and you are addicted for life. I started watching this anime when it first was released around 7 years ago. Every season is better, every movie is better. You just can't get enough. Absolutely worth the watch to a first ...Read more

Cuisine: Spanish, tapas
Location: Perth CBD, Howard Lane
Another well known place in Perth, I took my cousin here for the tapas. This place reminds me of Melbourne because you go down a quiet street and then a lane way from no where appears and it's down the very end. This place is pricey and the quantity on each plate small but this is like a fine dining experience – slowly enjoy and savour the different flavours. A few dishes that we had:
– Crusty bread to dip in olive oil: can't start without some of this
– Marinated olives: I don't think you can get the different types of olives on offer here from the shops. Some have a really interesting taste
– Seared scallops, Berkshire pork cheek confit, sticky Alvear PX and muscatels – wow, this is absolutely amazing, highly recommended. Don't let the small serve fool you. There's so many flavours to savour.
– Deli meats: sounds like meats you would have at the deli. Don't be fooled, there are some really interesting tastes to be had here.
– Crumbed chicken wrapped in bacon: yum
– Garlic prawns: lovely
Verdict: A bit like a fine dining experience with not much on the plate, but to be savoured ever so slowly, carefully identifying the unique flavours present.
Price: Reasonable
Taste: Delicious
Value: Good, a bit pricey but an experience worth paying for
Recommendation: Worth Visiting Again

5x06 The Indirect Method
First Aired: Oct. 18, 1975 on NBC
Summary: Station 51 receives a new trainee: Karen Overstreet, who is determined to prove a woman can do the paramedic's job. A man tries to gas himself, and then changes his mind. During a house fire, Roy tries to save an invalid, and nearly dies when broken wires send electricity through his body.…
Main Characters in this Episode
Guest Stars
- Goof (revealing mistake): When the dispatcher is shown giving Squad 51 its "man down" call, he says the time out is 8:20, but the clock above him says 11:44.
- Goof (factual errors): In both cardiac cases, they read the v-fib EKG with using the quick-look feature of the paddles, but after defibrillating they read the rhythm while the paddles are not in contact with the patient.
- Goof (continuity error): When the squad leaves the station on its "man down" call, the engine shown in its adjoining bay is the Crown engine from the first two seasons, and not the Ward LaFrance engine used from season 3 forward.
- The episode's title refers to a firefighting technique which involves attacking a fire within compartmentalized areas, while conserving water at the same time. The opening scene shows Captain Stanley instructing his men on the procedure, and it is put to use in the structure fire call at the end. The indirect method is used whenever there is fire inside a small room, like an office or a bedroom. The door is opened, a wide stream of water is put on the fire for just a few seconds, then the door is closed. The theory behind this method states that the fire will convert the water into steam, reducing the volume of air within the room. Soon, the steam cools into water vapor, covering a wide area and squelching the fire.

Getting it Right: Professor Studies Expert vs. Crowdsourcing Predictions
From anticipated sales of new product launches to predicted forecasts of holiday retail spending, analysts have been known to make predictions that are far from the actual outcome.
After years of practice and an abundance of expertise – how can these predictions be so off?
Over the last several years, crowdsourcing has become an increasingly popular tool for obtaining predictions from a large group of forecasters on topics ranging from sales and outcome of sports events to fundamental macroeconomic quantities such as growth and inflation. Many organizations, including the Federal Reserve, believe resorting to crowds offers more accurate forecasts banking on the 'wisdom of crowds.'
"The public is often shocked when outcomes differ from what was originally predicted, but nothing should ever come as a complete surprise," said Victor Jose, assistant professor of operations and information management at Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business.
In his recent study, Trimmed Opinion Pools and the Crowd's Calibration Problem, Jose and his co-authors highlight the complications of this common methodology and offers a simple tool that could improve the quality of forecasts generated from crowds.
Weakness in Numbers
As crowds become larger, the chance of having a significant number of "non-experts" in a pool of forecasters becomes larger. Forecasters who do not have expertise on a subject are likely to offer more random, uneducated predictions or follow the majority of the group – a phenomenon known as herding. Crowd forecasting organizers have a difficult time distinguishing who is an expert and who is not. When a portion of the crowd is made of unknowledgeable experts, issues related to calibration can easily arise.
The Calibration Issue
In the presence of "non-experts" with extreme or redundant forecasts, the crowd as a whole may be either over- or under-confident. This can lead to serious problems such as the magnitude of uncertain events becoming skewed. From these predictions, leaders cannot accurately plan nor anticipate risks of such extreme events. There are also long-term implications, as situations may occur far more (or less) often over the course of a longer period of time than originally predicted.
The Solution
Crowds can still be a useful resource in making predictions if this calibration issue could be addressed. Jose and his coauthors developed a simple tool to address this issue of calibration by trimming some of the information collected from a crowd, which should hopefully capture a significant portion of information that comes from "non-experts." Using data from the Federal Reserve Bank's Survey of Professional Forecasters, they demonstrate how this trimming approach can improve a crowdsourced forecast's sharpness and accuracy. Firms that use crowdsourcing and care about managing risks can benefit from this because if one cares about risks, focus and attention have to be given on the overall distribution, and not simply on averages.

Brantley Gilbert has finally revealed the identity of the woman he plans to marry.
Brantley Gilbert is engaged. The 'Small Town Throwdown' singer shared on Tuesday morning (Oct. 21) that he's getting married to a girl he's written many songs about.
Brantley Gilbert will do anything in the name of love! The star took some precious time during a stop at Mobile, Alabama's BayFest music festival on Oct. 5 to marry one very lucky couple, creating a once-in-a-lifetime memory.
Brantley Gilbert is a talented songwriter and performer, the leader of BG Nation and an expert at a 'Small Town Throwdown,' but he's also an ordained minister! The 'Bottoms Up' singer is making a couple of fans' dreams come true when he helps them say "I do" next month.
Day One of the 2014 CMA Fest at Nashville's LP Field kicked off swimmingly on Thursday (June 5).
The quote beneath Brantley Gilbert's yearbook picture reads "Hey Andy!" Maybe these aren't the words most high school seniors want to leave as their legacy, but the expression says a lot about who the 'Small Town Throwdown' singer is today.
Brantley Gilbert's 'Just As I Am' album is now in stores, containing the Georgia-raised singer's No. 1 hit 'Bottoms Up' and his new single 'Small Town Throwdown...

Topic: 2012 Recap - 4th marathon in 9 days
1 to 1 of 1
Format For Printing
Posted By:
Webmaster Mary
Sep 16, 2012
Sep 16, 2012
September has turned out to be a busy month for webmasters Bill and Mary. Airfare was reasonable, and the marathon dates turned out to fit well into our schedule. Running 4 marathons in 9 days might not be ideal, but, we enjoy it, and it turns out, my legs have cooperated.
Training partner Dennis Hanna's son-in-law Joey Heinrichs was along for this trip. He earned his first BQ in Idaho the day before, running a 3:06. To my benefit, this feat slowed Joey for this marathon, enough to a pace that I could maintain, and we ran the whole thing together.
Both of us have a goal of running a sub 4 hour marathon in all 50 states, and have joined the
50 Sub 4
marathon club. So, our only goal today is to break 4 hours. Feeling much more relaxed this day, than the previous day, we opt to sleep as late as we can, and plan to arrive at the start fairly close to the start time.
Webmaster Bill drove us to the start of the point to point course, allowing us to skip the mass marathon bus ride. Unfortunately, in the dark, we missed a turn, and wandered about 10 miles off course in the dark. I must admit, it was NOT an obvious turn like I missed in Wyoming last week, but I am hoping wrong turns don't become a tradition for us.
We eventually arrived at the start with just minutes to spare. We got out of the car, and were pounded with a chilly wind. We kept our sweatshirts on until after the start, and tossed them at Bill as we headed off.
This was Joey's first back-to-back, so he didn't know what to expect. His legs were pretty sore after the previous day's tough effort. I encouragingly assured him that once we start moving, it will hurt more. Kidding, once your legs loosen up a bit... ok, I am not going to lie, it still hurts. But not as bad as you'd think. Really.
Fortunately, our blast of wind was a tail wind. The course was hillier than we expected. We knew the biggest hill would crest at about mile 12, which turned out to be more like mile 13. That hill just seemed to go on forever. After that, each hill we crested, the volunteers told us it was all down hill. Yeah, we stopped believing that after 3 or 4 times.
The course was scenic. Aid stations were just a tad too far apart. We felt a bit dehydrated, and had to gulp 3 to 4 cups of water at each aid station, which can make a tummy a bit annoyed. We got a kick out of a little smunchkin working at one of the aid stations, who offered us 'Gatowade'. What a cutie.
Though a pretty small marathon, the finish line had the feel of a much larger event. We finished in downtown Bozeman, with music greeting us, and announcer calling our names, an inflatable finish banner thingie.
We kept a fairly steady pace, slowing a bit in the low 20 miles, but kicked it in a bit for the last 2 miles. Joey was able to muster up enough kick to leap over the finish line.
I was leaping on the inside. If I leaped on the outside, I'd likely find out what a finish mat tastes like.
Our post-race recovery was spent at Yellowstone National Park, about 90 minutes away. 90 minutes in the car is the perfect amount to let your legs completely stiffen up after your second marathon in a weekend. We hobbled around viewing geothermic features, and people-watching.
OK, for those keeping score:
26 marathon states
20 sub 4 hour marathon states
Joey also has 20 sub 4 hour marathon states

Vacation pics from Idaho and Montana and Yellowstone can be found

Patriots running back Shane Vareen hasn't practiced since coming down with a left foot injury two weeks ago, and he won't play Sunday against the Tennessee Titans. The team officially ruled him out on Friday. This means Stevan Ridley should handle the large majority of the touches out of the Patriots' backfield. Danny Woodhead will also chip in.
Fantasy Analysis:
It's always hard to gauge how Bill Belichick will manage his running backs, but I see little reason for trepidation this week. Danny Woodhead is just a third-down back, and there's really no one else available in this group right now that can threaten Ridley's carry count. The Titans allowed the seventh-most points to running backs last season, and I think Ridley is a rock-solid RB2 in Week 1. I disagree with his current ranking of No. 31.

Recognizing the difficult task facing college coaches during the short and busy summer, Trilogy Lacrosse has created two Events that will ensure players get the exposure they deserve. The Trilogy Certified Events are true invitation-only camps where the full-time Trilogy staff of former college coaches and educators will individually qualify each player prior to attendance. The Certified Events provide selected students with exposure to the schools that fit their athletic and academic profiles, with the High School Aces East for top tier lacrosse players and the Academic Aces for top players who also have strong academic marks. These are high-end events for top players and students nationally.
The benefit to the players and coaches involved remains constant – matching the right player qualifications with the best possible next level opportunity. They are the best exposure opportunities possible for a player who aspires to play at the highest level academically and athletically. The Aces events will be premier recruiting stops on the college coaches' summer circuit.
Trilogy Lacrosse Director of Club Programs Jim Stagnitta will spearhead each of the 3-day events: "The early response from the college coaches to the Certified Events has been great. As a former college coach with 25 years recruiting experience at the D1 and D3 level, these camps truly provide exposure for players to the institutions that meet their academic and athletic profiles." Stagnitta said. "The fact that the players have been qualified on both criteria helps coaches maximize their recruiting efforts without wasting anyone's time. This is illustrated by the commitments from Ivy League, NESCAC and Patriot League colleges to not only attend the events, but also per NCAA rules, provide staff from the D3 ranks. This list continues to grow each week."
Colleges like Brown, Cornell, Princeton and the Naval Academy will be in attendance at both events, providing top tier Division I exposure for the players involved. Institutions like W&L, Bowdoin, Haverford and RPI will allow players with top DIII aspirations who also value prestigious educational traditions, a chance to be evaluated. For more information on the Trilogy Lacrosse Certified Events, please visit www.trilogylacrosse.com/certified-events
Academic Aces College Commits: Bowdoin, Colby, Colorado College, Dickinson, F&M, Goucher, Hamilton, Haverford, Muhlenberg, RPI, RIT, Swarthmore, Trinity, Vassar, Washington and Lee, Wooster, Brown, Cornell, Colgate, Lafayette, Penn, US Naval Academy.
High School Aces East College Commits: Boston University, Colgate, Cornell, Drexel, Haverford, Lafayette, Maryland, Salisbury, St.Johns, Penn, Vermont

Ringgold honoring teacher at cancer relay
During the superhero-themed Youth Relay for Life today at Charleroi Area High School's stadium, Edward Vercoe will be among those honored.
Vercoe, who lived in Roscoe, was the former head of the Ringgold High School mathematics department and a teacher for 38 years. He retired in June 2012.
To Tammy Herndon, and many others, he truly was a superhero.
"A couple of weeks before graduation, on May 14, my mother passed away from breast cancer," said Herndon, a 1988 Ringgold graduate.
"He (Vercoe) helped keep me focused and made sure I went to college. He took me under his wing, helped me buy things for school ... His wife sent me food while I was up at Slippery Rock."
Vercoe, a breast cancer survivor, succumbed to cancer on Christmas Day, a few months after doctors found cancer cells in his liver and esophagus.
"My comment to him was that I lost one parent to breast cancer and I wasn't going to lose another one," said Herndon, a teacher in the Greenville Area School District.
"He is the reason I am a teacher today. I've seen that I'm not the only student he's done so much for. He affected so many students throughout his years of teaching. He could have retired earlier, but he loved teaching so much."
Dom Ferrari, a Ringgold senior, will give a speech in honor of Vercoe, whose family will attend today's event.The Ringgold School District has established a scholarship in remembrance of the longtime educator.
"I, like his family, don't want anyone to forget him or the things he did," Herndon said. "He was very special to so many people."
Herndon recalled how she was amazed at the large collage of letters from students that was displayed at Vercoe's funeral.
"It just showed how much he affected his students," said Herndon, becoming emotional. "He was such a good person."

the age of innocence
June 9, 2013 Leave a comment
Innocence is usually portrayed as a virtue, or at least as a good thing to have, a sad thing to lose.
But I think J.M. Barrie was on to something when he ended Peter Pan with these words: "and thus it will go on, so long as children are gay and innocent and heartless."
That chilled me the first time I read it, as did several scenes in the novel.
I think the authors of the book of Genesis had a similar ambivalence toward the prelapsarian ideal. What does the first man, so called, say when God confronts him with his newly acquired knowledge of good and evil? Does he take responsibility? Does he protect his woman?
Genesis 3:12: And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
It's not my fault, God. It's her fault. And really, since you gave her to me, it's kinda your fault, too.
The story tells us that Eve came from Adam's rib. Clearly, there was no backbone involved.
Genesis 3:13: And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.
Don't blame me, God. Blame the snake!
The Bible is full of terrible role models for children. The book of Genesis might be the worst, but I've never shared in Christendom's cultural condemnation of the agents of Original Sin. The whole thing feels like a setup from "In the beginning … " (OK, maybe not from Genesis 1:1, but certainly by Genesis 2:9!)
So I've been pretty slow to blame the first couple, but reading these passages with my six-year-old son this morning, I felt angry at their spinelessness.
Then it occurred to me: Adam and Eve aren't just innocents; they're children. How could they be anything else? Taking responsibility takes character, and character takes experience.
Innocence is neither moral nor immoral; it's amoral. To long for innocence is to spurn morality, to yearn for freedom from responsibility. "Don't blame me" is, in fact, the perfect expression of innocence.
The King James Version says that God formed "man" from the dust of the ground, but don't these passages make more sense with a little editing:
And the LORD God formed a boy of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the boy became a living soul.
And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from the boy, made he a girl, and brought her unto the boy.

NCAA BASKETBALL: Robert Morris falls to No. 6 Oklahoma State
After posting a memorable win over Kentucky in the first round of last season's NIT, life against major-conference foes hasn't been as pleasant for Robert Morris this season.
The Colonials lost 92-66 at No. 6 Oklahoma State on Monday night and now are 0-2 against major-conference foes, with a trip to Alabama up next — part of a season-long five-game road trip for Robert Morris (5-9), which has played just four home games so far this season.
In the long run, the Colonials — who also have fallen at Kentucky this season — hopefully will benefit from such a difficult stretch, coach Andrew Toole said. But in the short term, he acknowledged the results might not seem like it.
"One of the things we're going through is we have some new bodies who don't understand what it takes," Toole said.
"They're kind of living in the name that some other guys helped build and they don't understand what it takes to go out on the floor and play at that level. We're trying to teach them how to make the right decisions in any kind of environment and it's difficult. Sometimes it's uglier than it is pretty."
The ugly for the Colonials is that they surrendered 11 dunks as Oklahoma State (12-1) shot 57.1 percent from the field. The Cowboys recorded 27 assists on 32 baskets, their highest assist total since recording 27 against Nebraska on Feb. 19, 2000.
But there were some bright spots for the Colonials. They committed only eight turnovers and mostly held their own on the boards against the bigger, stronger Cowboys, who outrebounded Robert Morris 40-30.
"You've got to hope that, when you walk into the arena of a top-10 team that has so many weapons and so many athletes in a great historic building with great atmosphere and great fans," Toole said. "It can be overwhelming at times. If we can really teach and they can absorb what we're teaching and they can understand where they can be better, then we hope it pays off.
"Any time you lose, you're not always thinking about that as your first thought. You're thinking about what you could have done better, but again, I hope, down the road, guys realize that these things will make you tougher and make you stronger.
Coming off a nine-day layoff, Phil Forte scored 20 points and Markel Brown added 18 for Oklahoma State, whose coach, Travis Ford, marveled at how his team shared the basketball.
"It's a lot of fun when you see a team passing the ball like that," Ford said. "I told our team I enjoyed watching that. It's one of the most unselfish games I've seen a team play, especially when you see guys who passed up wide-open layups, wide-open dunks, to pass it off to their teammate. You don't see that much in college basketball anymore."
Karvel Anderson scored 16 points for Robert Morris, which is 2-8 on the road this season. The Colonials, who entered the game shooting 40.8 percent from 3-point range, finished 6 of 25 (24 percent) from behind the arc.
Robert Morris missed its first four shots and Oklahoma State sprinted to a 9-0 lead, with Marcus Smart scoring or assisting on the Cowboys' first three baskets. The Cowboys built a 15-point advantage before Robert Morris rallied within 35-27 on a basket by Anderson with 3:48 left in the first half.
Oklahoma State went on an 11-2 run to rebuild its lead to 46-31 by halftime, despite playing much of the half without Smart (due to foul trouble) and starting center Michael Cobbins, who hobbled off the floor 3½ minutes into the game and never returned. Ford said Cobbins would be examined by doctors on Tuesday but the coach feared it might be an Achilles' tendon injury.
After Anderson opened the second half with a basket, the Cowboys had three dunks in a 13-3 run, punctuated by a windmill slam by Brown to cap a length-of-the-court fast break during which the basketball touched the ground only once. That built the Cowboys' lead to 59-36 with 14:53 left.
Smart scored a season-low seven points. He went more than 28 minutes without scoring but he ended that drought with a memorable basket, catching an alley-oop pass from Stevie Clark and throwing down a two-handed reverse dunk. That started a 13-2 run by the Cowboys that put them up 79-52 with 6:57 left and ended all doubt.
"It's nice to see everyone doesn't really care who scores, who does what," Forte said. "As long we keep that going, things will be really good for us."
NO. 9 BAYLOR 81, ORAL ROBERTS 55: Taurean Prince scored 10 of his 16 points in the go-ahead run for No. 9 Baylor as the Bears overcame a slow start to beat Oral Roberts.
Baylor (11-1) fell behind 7-0 while missing its first six shots before finally scoring nearly 6 minutes into the game.
Prince made a free throw with 11:31 left in the first half to tie the game at 11-all. That also started a 13-2 spurt over nearly 5½ minutes as the Bears went ahead to stay.
Shawn Glover had 22 points to lead Oral Roberts (6-7), which has lost four of five games. Denell Henderson had 16 points.
Cory Jefferson had 17 points for Baylor, while Isaiah Austin had 15 points and Rico Gathers had 10 points and 10 rebounds.
NO. 16 KANSAS 93, TOLEDO 83: Perry Ellis had 21 points and 11 rebounds, Naadir Tharpe added a career-high 20 points and No. 16 Kansas beat Toledo for the Rockets' first loss of the season.
Andrew Wiggins also had 20 points and fellow freshman Joel Embiid had 14 points and 10 rebounds for the Jayhawks (9-3), who built a 16-point lead early in the second half.
Toledo (12-1) made one final charge, using some hot outside shooting and sloppiness on the part of Kansas to get within 81-73 on a 3-pointer by Julius Brown with 3:23 left in the game.
Tharpe answered moments later with a free throw and then a driving layup off a miss, and Kansas finally put the game away when Frank Mason fed Wiggins on a run-out for an easy dunk that gave the Jayhawks an 88-76 lead with less than 2 minutes remaining.
NO. 24 GONZAGA 69, SAN FRANCISCO 41: Drew Barham scored 15 points, all on 3-pointers, as short-handed Gonzaga beat San Francisco.
Przemek Karnowski added 11 points for Gonzaga (12-2, 2-0 West Coast), whose top three scorers are battling injuries. David Stockton and Kevin Pangos finished with 10 points each.
Avry Holmes led cold-shooting San Francisco (8-6, 1-1) with 16 points. The Dons made just 26 percent of their shots, to 43 percent for the Zags.
Gonzaga has won 20 straight conference games spanning three seasons.
Gonzaga played without starting guard Gary Bell Jr., who has a broken hand, and starting forward Sam Dower, who has an injured back. The team announced Monday that Bell, third-leading scorer at 12 points per game, will miss the next four to six weeks because of the injury that occurred in Saturday's win over Santa Clara.

TDOT awards contract, expects work done by May 22
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) _ State transportation officials have let an emergency contract to clear a rockslide in Smith County.
The Tennessee Department of Transportation announced Tuesday it awarded the work to Lojac Enterprises Inc. to clear debris from state Route 25 in Carthage. The bid was just under $117,000.
The contract specifies the work must be completed by May 22 to avoid daily penalties.
Both lanes of the highway will remain closed during the work, which is taking place near the Cumberland River Overlook.
The slide occurred last week, sending large rocks onto the road, blocking it.

Has There Been Any Word Yet On A Possible Release Date For The New Dts. Any Chance Of Seeing It At The New York Show Like The 2005 Sts. Thanks
I haven't read anything in the trade papers about it, but I think it's a good bet. I believe the New York show is the last of the auto show "season", at least for large American cities. But who knows? Maybe they'll suprise us and show it at the Chicago show next month.
My understanding..Pres Bush will ride in the new DTS limo for the inauguration.
That will be the only reason I will what it...:D
Chicago auto show! So I think next month along with a new buick. Yeah there are some design HINTS of it in the presidents new limo. the prod will look better I think.
I was at the Detroit auto show on Thurs and they told me the new Deville would be shown at the Chicago auto show on 2/8. Not sure why they would not want to unveil at Detroit.
Cadillac probably didn't want to steal any of the STS-V's thunder. That, and I think they may want to "spread the wealth". Not so much for the public but for the press. Instead of showing everything you've got at a single show, you can garner press attention over a longer period of time if you space out introductions. Maybe we'll see the '06 CTS Sport model at the New York show in April. The '06 Deville/ DTS will likely be in production soon after that. (With sales of the current car tanking, they'll want the new one on tap sooner rather than later.)

Man with the Midas touch, Pharrell, had troubles launching his 2 clothing lines, Billionaire Boys Club and Ice Cream, both of which are designed by his mate Nigo. He even ended up in court about it. Nevertheless, he persevered, and got there in the end and frankly I think there's a lesson there for all of us.
Like Nigo' other label, A Bathing Ape, BBC references pop art and popular culture with its bright colours and cartoonish designs. Ice Cream however, moves bag and baggage into a comic book world of ice lollies and neon shades, and this is where Mr Williams and I go our separate ways. Its like Mr Whippy on acid and I find it a bit clownish.
However, I do like this waffle print laptop case available from We Sold Out. I'd happily dress my computer in this print, just don't ask me to put it on my back…

Oneway street and electric counters streamline Bicycle Master Plan
Cyclists commuters, skaters, walkers, and pedestrians alike may have an extra glimmer in their eyes these last few weeks since SDOT has made strides in making Ballard and all of Seattle more cyclist and pedestrian-minded.
Most recently, SDOT announced that electrical sensors would be placed in numerous locations throughout trail systems and greenways of Seattle in order to count the number of pedestrians and cyclists using the routes.
SDOT says the data will provide information that will facilitate measurement and ways to better serve a growing population of pedestrians and cyclists.
Already on the Fremont Bridge, another counter will be placed at Northwest 58th Street at 22nd Avenue Northwest in Ballard, and six other locations around the city.
SDOT stated, "The counters will help create a ridership baseline in 2014 that can be used to assess and measure ridership in the future and help reach the goal of quadrupling ridership by 2030."
"No one has really methodically counted trail users," said Kevin Carrabine, one of the original founders of the Friends of the Burke-Gilman Trail (BGT) and daily bicycle commuter.
"The city used to send counters out on a designated day and so the information was never very complete, and so now I think it's a tremendous thing to have better data and a better understanding of trail usage."
Carrabine has been a cyclist commuter for 22 years. He lives in Ballard and every day he rides to the University District where works as a nurse practitioner.
Another SDOT project in Ballard has changed Shilshole Avenue Northwest / Northwest 45th Street to a one-way running eastbound from Northwest 46th Street to 11th Avenue Northwest with a separate two-way bicycle lane on the north side of the street.
The goal of the project is to make the street safer for cyclists because that segment of Northwest 45th Street is one of the highest bicycle collision locations in the city. The street also runs through a light industrial area.
The one-way eastbound solution comes after SDOT collaborated with area businesses in order to make a safer strategy. SDOT said, "Because the roadway segment is so narrow, one-way motor vehicle travel with a separate bike lane was determined to be a better option."
Though not part of the Burke-Gilman Trail, the project is a step in the direction of fulfilling a safe connecting route within the missing link.
Carrabine said that the 45th one way still has some work to complete. "Its basically functioning but there is still some signage and painting to finish."
Subsequently, Carrabine said that an issue many pedestrians and cyclists are facing now are local motorists getting used to the direction of the street, with some ignoring the signage and moving right through the "DO NOT ENTER" signs going westbound.
"Its not as safe as it needs to be. There's still motorists driving west on 45th and choosing to break the law and drive on the bikeway because either they are being defiant or they don't know. There has been some hostility expressed since the change was made."
Furthermore, since the change in the one way Carrabine has noticed an increase in cyclists and pedestrians in the area and says that its just a matter of time before a lot more people start to use it.
Furthermore, Carrabine said that it's great that the city is acknowledging the bikers by building the one-way bike lane, but could do more to help pedestrians.
Carrrabine said that though it's a step in the right direction for creating a pedestrian minded infrastructure, the process of fulfilling the Master Plan has been sluggish in fulfilling implementation.
"I've lived here since 1988 (Ballard) and my observation is yes the recession played a roll in delaying much of the development of the Master Plan but if you look at cities like New York, Chicago or Los Angeles, city officials just found the route and bought into it and made it happen. In Seattle we have not gone as far is that. We are totally bogged down in process and one or two voices can literally stop a project."
Carrabine referred to the contention surrounding the location and development of the BGT. He also mentioned that the city initially approached Ballard businesses in 2009 with the same option of making 45th Street a one-way and business owners rejected that idea, and then appealed the City's plan.
To the question of whether the city will eventually reach its goal of quadrupling riders by 2030, Carrabine is optimistic.
"I don't know if hey can reach that goal. Its kind of like if you build it they will come: once people see that it's a safe place to ride and walk, more people will do that. I've been commuting to the UW for 18 years, and I have seen more and more everyday riders. I think if the city can build these things and implement the Master Plan its possible, but I wish it were happening much faster."
Carrabine explained that in the big picture there are more and more people moving to Ballard as a result of high density housing being created, so there will be more and more cars. Combine that with short comings in public transit, a real need for routes designed for cyclists and other modes of transpiration have already come to a head and will continue to be a real demand for the City to take greater action.
"Thousands and thousands of people live in Ballard that work in the UD and Downtown and if there is a safe trail, they will use it. We've got to figure out a better way to get people from Ballard to where they work and the BGT is the city's premier idea of that."

Parental food nagging may produce fussy eaters
NEW YORK (Reuters Life!) - Parents beware. Telling your child to clean their plate may help produce a fussy eater, while tight control of what they eat could make children prone to overeating, according to a study.
Though a number of studies have found that when parents strictly control what their children eat -- either denying all unhealthy food or pressuring them to expand their meal choices -- their children may be more likely to have less than ideal eating habits, it has not been clear whether these parental tactics were a cause of or a response to their childrens' eating habits.
In a study published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association, Jane Wardle and colleagues at University College London surveyed 213 mothers of 7- to 9-year-old children.
"Child enjoyment of food was linked to lower maternal pressure to eat," Wardle wrote.
But she also noted that the results don't necessarily mean that parents' mealtime strategies cause their children to overeat or become picky eaters. Indeed, the parental moves may come in response to habits the children already have.
In the study, mothers were asked about how their children responded to food: whether they would typically overeat if given a chance, along with whether they'd eat slowly or routinely fail to finish meals.
Mothers also reported on their own mealtime strategies, including whether they tried to get their children to eat when they weren't hungry or whether they believed their children would overindulge without eating restrictions.
Overall, Wardle and her colleagues found a correlation between the mothers' pressure to eat healthy food and children's degree of fussiness over food. In addition, the more mothers restricted their children's food, the more likely mothers were to say their children would overindulge if allowed.
The links were seen regardless of the children's weight. Continued...
