Match/Tournament for the World Chess Championship
On March 24, 1946, the fourth world chess champion, Alexander Alekhine, passed away. He was the first – and still the only – champion to die while holding the title. To select a new champion, a powerful quintuple round-robin was held in The Hague and Moscow. The five strongest players of the era, including one former world champion, two future world champions, and two perennial contenders, took part in a grueling two-month, 25-round tournament

21st Century Edition
Reinfeld on the Endgame is a very fine specialty book about several aspects of endgames. It concentrates on a very difficult, too-often glossed over aspect of the transition between the middlegame and the endgame. Each section is introduced with pithy explanations, and each example is shown and then summarized. It all begins with transitions into a favorable endgame, dividing the topic into material or positional advantages. This skill is often known as winning technique, and a good explanation of how it is done is invaluable. Here we get that explanation by one of the most prolific chess writers of the twentieth century.

There is a blank spot in the huge world of chess literature: systematically presented middle- game. Therefore authors, both long-term chess trainers, decided to fi ll this vacuum. With a series of books about the middle-game, we would like to present different topics of chess tactics and strategy in a slightly different way. Books, which will be published in the coming years as part of the series, are planned to cover all frequently discussed themes, as well as many others topics — those about which chess players and also trainers usually do not think as deeply as they should in order to achieve better results.

text: Not so fast, Joe Flacco — the Baltimore Raven might not be NFL's highest-paid player after all. The Super Bowl XLVII MVP and the Ravens agreed to a six-year, $120.6 million contract this week, earning the New Jersey native an estimated $20.1 million per year. But being the highest paid player and earning the most after taxes are two very different things, according to Americans for Tax Reform, a Washington-based organization that advocates a single, flat-rate income tax. In selecting to remain with Baltimore, Flacco is now set to pay a combined marginal income tax rate of 51.98 percent, comprised of federal, Maryland and Baltimore County income tax rates, as well as the Medicare tax. And that doesn't even include the so-called "jock tax," or Flacco's liability for games played out of state and other taxes levied against him, including Maryland's property tax. Had Flacco sought a contract in states like Florida, Tennessee and Texas, he would have saved $1.72 million on the total marginal tax liability, according to Americans for Tax Reform Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/sports/2013/...nfl-highest-paid-player-status/#ixzz2MtTOFh7v

Dress Designers (from left to right): Vera Wang and Lazaro
Even though she has been engaged to Muse musician Matthew Bellamy since April 2011, there are no wedding bells just yet for Kate Hudson. In fact, it might be a surprise wedding.
"I think until the day we get married, the answer is going to be, 'We have no intention right now of getting married.' And then you'll find out we got married," said Kate Hudson in an interview with USA Today. "We have an idea. It's starting to formulate but it's a timing thing. But honestly, right now, Matt is touring. Ryder is in school. I'm working."
Here are our predictions: Maybe she'll wear a Vera Wang ball gown with Chantilly lace, similar to what she wore in Bride Wars. Or maybe she'll have another winter wedding and become inspired by this vintage lace gown accented with a matching beaded and embroidered bolero jacket.

The shirt is soft and lightweight, but the neck is cut out so large that i could not keep it on my shoulders at all. I wish that I had heeded the warning of the other reviewers and skipped this one. There is no way i could have worn this to class. The "neck" was almost to my elbows when my arms were at my sides.
Age: 30-39
Was this review helpful to you? YES (
I loved this shirt. It was a crop top though, and it didn't say that in the description, or show it on the model. It fit smoothly over my B cups, and floated prettily down my stomach, stopping just below the belly button. I wore it in grey, with a pair of hot pink booty shorts. I'm usually an adult medium, and that fit perfectly on me. The open neck is absolutely beautiful, too. I received lots of compliments, and questions on where I got it. The durability isn't that great though. Hand wash and line dry, definitely. It was slightly see-through, so I just wore it with either a grey spaghetti strap tank, or a bright bra. Way to go, DDS!
Age: 15-18
I wear this shirt over my leotard and sports bra for hip-hop class and for teaching. It's comfortable and moves with you, but not so much that it flops around. It doesn't require much adjusting as you dance, and it looks great too. I'd get this in more colors if I could. I have the hot pink, as that was the only available one in my size.
Age: 22-29
I wore this for the first time to my Zumba class. The darn thing slipped down off my shoulders on both sides, to where it was hanging at the bend of my elbows. I tried to tuck it in under my sports bra straps, but it wouldn't stay. Like one reviewer said, I too just finally took it off. It was distracting me from the dance steps I was trying to focus on. I'm hoping I can attach some ribbon to tie around my neck to hold it up, so it's not a total waste. Also very thin & cheap fabric. It should be hand washed or delicate cycle, and drip dried.
Age: 40-49
As a larger dancer, it is always hard to find tops that fit properly- and this is one of those products. It is super comfy and cute, but just not for me. It hardly fit over my chest- (38DDD) and then clung tightly to my stomach, and barely made it past my belly button. It is really stretchy though. It looked fine to maybe wear with some high raised leggings or jeans or something, but if you are a bigger dancer, this is defiantly not for you to preform in competitions with. Luckily, my dance partner is a few sizes smaller than me and she can wear it fine.
Great shirt! I bought this to wear over my leotard before/after class and I think it will work nicely. Its a very comfortable light material and the shirt is flattering. Its a little big so you may want to go down a size, but be forewarned that the sleeves slide down more than expected since its such a stretchy material and a bigger shirt.
it's lightweight enough to go over a leotard and not make you feel uncomfortably warm. nice way to cover up a semi sheer leotard
If you can go a size down, I would suggest it. I ordered a small (I'm 5'0" & 95lbs) & it looks really cute on but when I danced in it, the shoulders kept slipping way down (not just off the shoulder) & I ended up taking it off & just dancing in the leotard I had underneath. I'm just going to use it as a cover up from now on.
Even though this top is designed to be baggy, I ordered a medium, and it was way too big. I am ordering a small to see if that fits better. Other than that, I like it.
I am trying to decide between a small or medium but am not sure, could you provide a little guidance on how the top runs?
This top is an oversized top, please see suggested fitting for guideance,- DDS Customer Service (11/06/2012)

Hopper, Hendrix guide second half comeback attempt against CatawbaFebruary 8, 2012
Tornados fall short in Goodman Gymnasium on Wednesday, 71-60
Salisbury, N.C. - Gaither Hendrix scored 17 of his team high 19 points in the second half and Jonathan Hopper added seven points off the bench in the final 20 minutes, but the steady overall play by Keon Moore kept the Tornados comeback attempt at bay as the Indians held off Brevard in Goodman Gymnasium on Wednesday night, 71-60.
Moore scored 23 of his game high 35 points in the first half to stake Catawba (6-15, 3-10 SAC) to a 43-22 halftime lead, but Brevard (3-20, 2-11 SAC) fought their way back into the game, cutting the double-digit lead all the way to six points on a Jermichael Tanner layup with 4:03 left in the contest. However, the Tornados comeback bid ran out of steam as Moore scored the final five points of the game to clinch the season sweep over Brevard.
Hendrix led the Tornados offensive efforts with 19 points as Brevard shot 45.1 percent (23-51) from the floor in the contest. Tanner added nine points and three assists, while Darius Moose scored eight points and pulled down seven rebounds for Brevard. Michael Gist also added seven rebounds in the game, while Dominique Pickett and Hopper finished with seven points apiece.
Moore led all players with 35 points, going 11-for-21 from the floor and a perfect 9-for-9 from the free throw line in leading the Indians to the victory. Justin Huntley added nine points and six rebounds, while Tyrece Little had eight points and 10 rebounds as the Indians won the battle of the boards on Wednesday evening, finishing the game with the 42-27 advantage.
Stuart Thomson and Darius Moose traded baskets in the early going before the Indians went on a 16-2 run with Moore scoring 10 points for Catawba during the seven minute stretch as the hosts built an 18-4 lead with 11:42 remaining in the first half. The lead would expand to 24 as the Indians continued to press as Catawba went up 41-17 with 3:07 on the clock on Chris Tyree's three-pointer.
A pair of Tyree free throws kept the lead at 24 with two minutes remaining in the half, but the Tornados scored the final three points before the break as Moose went in for the layup and Tanner converted a free throw attempt to put the score at 43-22 in favor of Catawba as the teams headed into the break.
The lead would expand to 26 with 15:39 to play as Little went in for the layup off the assist from Willie Gilmore, but Hendrix answered on the opposite end for the Tornados as Brevard began an 11-0 run capped by a Hopper jumper to cut the lead to 54-39 with 12:45 on the clock. A layup by Huntley snapped the BC streak, but Hendrix answered with another layup as the Tornados brought the game to within 11 following a pair of Pickett free throws with 9:53 to play.
Kelvin Drakeford and Little extended the lead to 61-47 from the free throw line, but Hopper brought the game to within single digits as the freshman guard hit a jumper and then drained a three-pointer on the next BC possession to put the score at 61-52 with 7:21 left in the game.
The Tornados continued to press, cutting the score all the way down to within six points following a pair of free throws by Aleksandar Vasiljevic and a Tanner layup, putting the score at 66-60 with 4:03 remaining. However, the Brevard rally fell short as the Tornados were held without a basket in the final four minutes of the contest and Moore put the game away from the free throw line, going a perfect 3-for-3 from the charity stripe over the final two minutes to give the Indians the 71-60 victory.
Brevard returns to Brevard, N.C. on Saturday, February 11th, as the Tornados welcome Mars Hill College for a South Atlantic Conference contest. Tipoff between the Tornados and the Lions is set for 4 p.m.

Bassett 53SR55CL 15X13 Wide-5 5.5 Inch BS Chrome Beadlock Wheel
Click image to enlarge
Please note the following about this product:
- Ground Shipping Only - Can't Ship Air.
Reviews (0)
What's in the Box
InfoThe Bassett ring style wide-five wheel is great for dirt track race cars that require a beadlock on the right rear tire. The beadlock utilizes 100% spun-form shells and rings. Spun-form shells and rings are stronger, lighter and have less runout than roll-formed beadlock wheels.Another important feature is a true measured width. Many beadlocks on the market are actually wider than reported, creating a stagger problem on the right rear corner of a dirt race car. The beadlock also uses 18 high grade bolts, which prevent premature wear and air leaks. Available in widths from 8" - 15" wide.
The following must be considered when using Bassett wheels for on highway / street use applications when the wheel/tire assembly is being balanced. Bassett Wheels are lug centric, which means they are built off of and must be balanced using the bolt circle and NOT the wheel center hole. Improper use of a tire balancer that centers the wheel on the hub bore, not the bolt circle will result in an incorrect reading for rim runout, as the center hole is not in the perfect center of the bolt pattern. The only machine capable of performing a lug centric balance is the Hunter GSP 9700 with the flange plate bolt circle adapter and no centering cone.

The 15 Best Songs of April
My hometown of Boston has been in the news lately, and the heroics, solidarity, and support on display in a city otherwise known for a cold exterior has made many glow with pride and a bit of sentimentality.
"I never saw my hometown until I stayed away too long," sang Tom Waits in his 1974 song, "San Diego Serenade." I've been living around Boston since 1982, but it was not until I went out and started touring with my band, Buffalo Tom, from 1989 to 1999 that I started to really identify it as my hometown. (That's us above, by the way, at our first gig in 1986.) Now, even if we relocated to Bora Bora (which is tempting come February in the Hub), our band will be forever identified as a "Boston band." And when we sing "I'm in between the coasts but my mind must be back in Boston" on our 1991 song "Crutch," it raises a predictable cheer here in town.
And that's about as close as we ourselves got to a shout-out to our city. Thankfully, there are not a whole lot of "Boston, fuck yeah!" songs. But here are some rock songs that I think as quintessentially Boston in some way (obvious) or another (not so).
So to kick off your weekend, and celebrate our town, here they are, in no particular order...
Mission of Burma was the most influential Boston band of the late 1970s/early 1980s. In the wake of tragedies such as the Boston Marathon bombing, it is easy to feel cynical or, worse: thoroughly defeated. In such a case, the nihilistic poetry of the classic Burma song "That's When I Reach For My Revolver" would seem like one obvious salve ("Cries and whispers sing in muted pain"). But I choose the ringingly defiant "Academy Fight Song," a pitch-perfect blend of humor and angst. The Holden Caulfield-like teenage narrator, seemingly trapped in a military academy, rails against the physical and psychological constrictions of the institution, even while admitting that the "sound of marching feet ... has a strange allure." It may sound heady, but it is a pure pop-rock blast not unlike the Clash's "Clampdown."

Chanel Fall 2014
Karl Lagerfeld has never set foot in a supermarket, but that minor detail was of little consequence when he set out to create one as a setting for his fall Chanel collection.
"The whole thing is related to Pop Art," he explained, alluding to Andy Warhol's early appropriation of mass-market commodities and packaging. Karl saw this as a development from his sensational art-gallery environment created for the spring show. "The Art one was an art supermarket, because art has become a product, no?" he explained during a fitting, reasoning that there was no better way to showcase the Chanel product than in a more literal evocation of a supermarket. Karl has a unique grasp of the contemporary Zeitgeist, and a febrile imagination that resulted in an unforgettable collection and a fashion décor that will go down in history as a tour de force of wit and invention.
"I think a little humor is needed," said Karl, proudly noting that 500 different products had been repackaged and labeled. The invitees (and, later, the models) became the customers, passing through the checkout counters and the aisles to a fully stocked store quite miraculously assembled under the glassy domes of the Grand Palais. They were greeted with a pyramid of coconuts promoting, naturally, "lait de coco" (coconut milk in French). On those shelves there were first-aid kits and household paints (with colors that included Dore Saint-Honoré, Rouge Coromandel, and Gris Jersey). There were chainsaws, and doormats stamped Mademoiselle Privé (repeating the message on Coco Chanel's studio door), and rubber gloves with gardenias attached. There were Perles de Lessive washing powders. The men's toiletries were named for Boy Capel, Chanel's dashing lover, and there were Les Confitures de Tante-Adrienne—jams named for her aunt. There were bottles of Eau de Chanel mineral waters, and even the collection's press photos were presented in a giant Chanel-branded matchbox.
Luckily, however, Karl had not exhausted his clearly inexhaustible skills in thinking up all this drollery—the brilliantly colored clothes were fantastically inventive, too.
Cara Delevingne opened the show, romping down Aisle 5 and stopping to appraise products that caught her eye, wearing moth-eaten joggings, a tweedy coat in the curvy volumes of the season (with especially emphatic, rounded sleeves), and trainers borrowed from the sportif Chanel spring couture show. Those flat sport shoes (sometimes extended with gaiters to become boots) gave the collection—even the ironic bourgeois suits with swinging skirts and classic braided jackets—its easy contemporary attitude.
Also inspired by the haute couture were the neo-corset midriff insets in the coats and jackets—this time seamed with zippers ("If you eat too much at lunch, you can unzip one or two," joked Karl)—and the iridescent metallic and cellophane threads and highlights that shimmered like rainbows across the complex tweedy weaves and embroideries.
The house's superbly innovative fabric development included thick, textured tweeds in colors pulled from the grocery aisle—including broccoli, carrot, beetroot, and corn—that were used for swing coats with a strong pyramid line to them and marled knits like those Chanel herself created in the twenties, used for sweater-and-leggings sets.
There was much use of the padding and quilting theme of the season—let's not forget it's a house icon, as Chanel used it for her iconic 2.55 purse—as well as a bold print that evoked Karl's personal passion for the Memphis Group collective of decorative artists and designers of the eighties.
There was wit here, too. Black vinyl pants were intended to resemble trash bags, and a silver-foil-sequined coat was shrugged over a dress of filmy silvery-gray lace whose seemingly abstract motifs, on intimate inspection, turned out to represent supermarket trolley carts. Silky calfskin leather purses were shrink-wrapped in cardboard containers ("It's related to meat, you know?" said Karl, laughing), jewels resembled a child's edible sweetie necklace, and scrunched-up scraps of metallic material—like discarded candy wrappers—were used for embroideries. Stella Tennant carried a wire-frame supermarket basket fashioned from Chanel's signature jacket-weighting chain.
Disposable fashion? On the contrary. As Karl's muse Lady Amanda Harlech noted during the fitting, caressing the gloriously tactile fabric swatches pinned to his sketches, "It's a sort of challenge. Because it's mass production, but it's impossible to reproduce the textiles, trims, and embroideries."
"It's Chanel beyond Chanel!" said Karl, clearly having the last laugh.

CNN Hosts FRC's Peter Sprigg To Discuss Anti-Gay Pastor's Withdrawal From Obama Inauguration
CNN invited Family Research Council (FRC) Senior Fellow Peter Sprigg - who has previously advocated the criminalization of homosexuality and deportation of gay people from the United States - to condemn the recent withdrawal of an anti-gay pastor from President Obama's second inauguration.
During the January 11 edition of CNN Newsroom, host Carol Costello invited Sprigg and Truth Wins Out director Wayne Besen to discuss Georgia pastor Louie Giglio's decision to withdraw [1] from performing the benediction at Obama's inauguration.
Giglio announced his withdrawal after ThinkProgress revealed that he had given a "vehemently anti-gay [2]" sermon in the mid-1990s during which he condemned the "homosexual lifestyle," claimed gay people would go to hell, and claimed that gay people could become straight through the power of Christ.
Sprigg, whose organization has been labeled an anti-gay hate group [3] by the Southern Poverty Law Center for spreading known falsehoods about LGBT people, attempted to downplay Giglio's comments, accusing gay activists of pursuing "intolerance in the name of tolerance":
SPRIGG: The world we live in, unfortunately, is increasingly marked by the enforcement of intolerance in the name of tolerance, exclusion in the name of inclusion, and forced uniformity in the name of diversity. It's contradictory, it's downright Orwellian, and yet people actually make these statements, unbelievably, with a straight face.
Besen responded by pointing out that Sprigg has previously called for the criminalization [4] for homosexuality and advocated for exporting [5] gay people from the United States, a point that Costello confirmed:
BESEN: Peter, I find it ironic that you're embracing diversity. I mean you called for the imprisonment of gay people and said we should export homosexuals out of the United States and suddenly you're for tolerance? I'm a little confused here.
SPRIGG: [laughing] Well this is about Pastor Giglio and President Obama, it's not about me.
BESEN: No, I just find it ironic that you're a spokesperson for tolerance.
COSTELLO: But Wayne is right, Peter. Wayne is right about that, Peter.
Sprigg's history of inflammatory anti-gay rhetoric goes even further, endorsing "ex-gay" therapy and claiming that gay people are mentally ill. According to a recent SPLC report [6]:
Sprigg authored a 2010 brochure touting "The Top Ten Myths about Homosexuality." In the brochure, Sprigg claimed that ex-gay therapy works, that sexual orientation can change, that gay people are mentally ill simply because homosexuality makes them that way, and that, "Sexual abuse of boys by adult men is many times more common than consensual sex between adult men, and most of those engaging in such molestation identify themselves as homosexual or bisexual." He also claimed that "homosexuals are less likely to enter into a committed relationship" and "less likely to be sexually faithful to a partner." Sprigg's sources are a mixture of junk science issued by groups that support ex-gay therapy and legitimate science quoted out of context or cherry-picked, a tactic long used by anti-gay groups to bolster their claims about gay people. [emphasis added]
It's not surprising, then, that Sprigg falsely [7] claimed that the majority of Americans find homosexuality to be immoral. Pastor Giglio's anti-gay remarks may seem tame to someone like Sprigg, but they're far out of line with the American public's growing acceptance of LGBT equality.

Research Paper Review: Reducing Sexual Violence on Campus: The Role of Student Leaders as Empowered Bystanders
Dear Engaged Bystander: If you are like me, you have a stack of research papers you have been meaning to read all summer. I wanted to create a short series of my favorite research articles to share with you and I hope to keep them all to under 500 words.
So this is the first in a series of reviews of key research. I hope you find them helpful.
This article by Banyard, Moynihan and Crossman provides an excellent overview of the problem of sexual violence in college communities and important insights into future directors for prevention programming within this institutional setting. The study itself examines one bystander program that targets student leaders as key to shifting awareness and social norms around sexual violence in a campus environment.
College campuses are often considered high risk environments for sexual and physical violence because of the high concentration of the most at-risk age group (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2004). With this high concentration of high risk individual and with the unique capacity of these institutions to reach a large number of young people with healthy messaging, one might assume that every college and university has a program to address this growing problem. Unfortunately, a recent report by Karjane et al. (2005) showed that fewer than half of the colleges and universities surveyed by their study offered training related to sexual assault and only 60% offered any kind of educational prevention program.
Using the wider ecological context of peer and community norms, the authors point to previous research which shows that communities have higher rates of sexual violence when community and peer norms support individual coercive behavior in relationships. This is the foundation for positive change which suggests that bystanders, by their presence and actions may be able to help deter the perpetration of sexual violence or in some way help to protect a potential victim.
Study Results
The bystander program targeted student leaders teaching them to be engaged, positive bystanders by raising awareness about sexual violence and building skills to respond and prevent it. The model for this evaluation was a 90 minute session (although not a part of the evaluation, the program also has a longer multi-session component). A key component of the training was the opportunity to plan how to intervene and to practice the skills for acting as an empowered bystander -- this interactive training went far beyond a lecture format.
The evaluation found that after going through the program, participants (both men and women) endorsed fewer rape myths, expressed greater willingness to help as a bystander and more confident enacting positive bystander behaviors, and last, more strongly agreed with statements reflecting greater bystander engagement. One participant remarked, "The information about just doing something is so simple but it really hit home this time…" In fact, the study reflected that the bystander program was equally effective among students who began with a higher level of general awareness and training.
According to David Finkelhor's four precondition model for perpetration (1984), one of the key preconditions to sexual violence is the ability to overcome external inhibitions to abuse. When students enter the campus environment, they are leaving behind many of the external social controls (external inhibitions) that surrounded them for the previous 18 years. At the same time, they are encouraged to explore, to experiment and to stretch beyond what they had thought possible in their home towns. The bystander framework offers colleges and universities a chance to build social norms to establish safe relationships and give a powerful role to students in creating peer "external inhibitions to abuse."
This evaluation study demonstrated how student leaders can be easily engaged in a more active bystander role in their communities. With a relatively small investment of time, these leaders have the potential for becoming role models and endorser of the important bystander role that students can play. As student leaders, they have the ability to spread this attitude (and these skills) across their spheres of influence.

Alison Kwok, AIA, received an AIA Upjohn Research Initiative grant in 2007, which resulted in her 2009 report "Case Studies of Carbon Neutrality," a catalog of the design and delivery process for carbon neutral buildings that mapped design intent onto actual performance based on the 2030 Challenge. That report became the basis for a series of five articles and related case study e-books for the USGBC's "LEED Stories from Practice," which covers topics such as building management and quantifying sustainability. Kwok serves on the board of the Passive House Institute US and teaches architecture at the University of Oregon.
In 1998, I began teaching at Oregon, where there is a critical mass of faculty members who have design and technology backgrounds. So the conversation here in design studios is very fluid, and we can move forward on an idea quickly because everyone is on the same page. My own research has been in natural ventilation in the tropics as well as, more generally, building performance as it relates to design intentions. Translating that into an educational context has been rewarding—teaching research skills, how to ask critical questions, how to use cutting-edge equipment.
We've seen a lot of those lines of inquiry go into practice. But the fact remains that tracking post-occupancy building performance is challenging—and so is integrating that process into a firm's own identity and operation. But it's happened—and it's happening. Some firms have successfully done it. What's the real challenge? The education component. In other words, it's not just about understanding building performance within architecture education—it's also about education within the firms. Who pays for folks to get up to speed on calculating energy use intensity (EUI) or to design for net-zero energy? Education needs champions and money. But incorporating the effort and understanding the basic principles of building performance will render positive results.
When I interviewed architects and engineers for my research, I was pleased with how willing they were to share information about how their firms work. I think firm principals were so willing to help because they believe in what they're doing, and that tracking building performance is a value-driven system. Practitioners and design professionals involved in the 2030 Commitment were really engaged in that enterprise. It was not all about the process, though—it was also about firm culture. Can you work with other people? Can you lead other people across other disciplines? As the next generation of students moves into practice, I think that would be a useful thing to know if you're looking for a job. —As told to William Richards

Furniture can do more than stylishly top off a project. In commercial interiors, seating options help individuals understand how to use a space. These chairs offer ergonomic comfort, privacy, or extra room for a newspaper or computer—all to let users know they're welcome to stay for a while. That's not all. We round out this week's collection with a sustainable carpet and a ceiling with swing-down access to building systems, each made from recycled materials.
Tia Maria Armchair, Moroso
Italian architect Enrico Franzolini created the Tia Maria armchair for Moroso with ergonomics in mind. Its sturdy upholstery (leather, shown) cradles a user in a reclined seating position and, along with the slant of its frame and asymmetric arms, provides maximum comfort. The chair measures 14.6" tall by 32.3" wide by 37.4" deep, with a base made of chromed tubular steel. It joins a small chair and a larger armchair to make up the Tia Maria collection. moroso.it
Echelon Frame and Panel System, Hunter Douglas
As building systems are increasingly integrated into the ceiling, building owners and service providers require ready access to the space. Echelon from Hunter Douglas provides both noise reduction and swing-down access to the plenum. The acoustical ceiling system features a noise-reduction coefficient of 0.85, and its panels measure up to 4' square. Echelon contains up to 30% recycled content and is Greenguard certified. Available in white as well as a range of colored, wood, and textured finishes. hunterdouglascontract.com
Largo, Beaufurn
From college cafeterias to school libraries to hotels, chairs in public spaces often take a beating. Largo from Beaufurn offers both style and strength with a square-tube metal frame that is powdercoated for durability. The stacking chair's all-wood back is available in four finishes with either a cutout for easy moving or perforations (shown). The seat comes in wood or can be upholstered. beaufurn.com
Windowseat Lounge, Haworth
Anyone who's sat in a window seat knows the comfort it can provide. But in most contract situations, built-ins just aren't feasible. Windowseat, designed by Mike & Maaike, a San Francisco-based industrial design studio, is one alternative. Created for the Haworth Collection, it combines the privacy of a window seat with the mobility of a free-standing chair. Windowseat is fully upholstered over a foam-padded rigid steel frame. It has a swivel base and is offered with or without sides that extend overhead to enclose the space. A matching ottoman is available. haworthcollection.com
Ro, Republic of Fritz Hansen
Created by Spanish designer Jaime Hayon for Republic of Fritz Hansen, Ro, which means "tranquility" in Danish, offers a contemporary take on the traditional easy chair. The company bills the chair as a "1 ½ seater" that can accommodate a child, newspaper, or computer alongside the sitter. Its hard shell contrasts a soft, upholstered interior. Available in nine colors. fritzhansen.com
Net Effect, Interface
It's one thing to be inspired by the ocean, but it's another to try to preserve it. A joint collaboration between the Zoological Society of London and carpet manufacturer Interface, Net Effect is made from the nylon found in discarded fishing nets that are reclaimed locally. The collection of six modular carpet tiles comes in three 50-cm-square tiles (a neutral ground, a transition tile, and a textural accent). interface.com

White River Knives
We have carried White River Knives at the Knifecenter since 2012 and have been impressed with their products from the start. This company has access to very advanced machinery and experience in manufacturing precision tools that few companies, even large knife manufacturers, can match. They have come up with products that are really second to none we have seen in terms of quality of fit, finish, and materials. White River Knives has models that seem faintly similar to other knives from around the world because they take the best qualities of modern tactical knives, Finnish Puuko knives, various Fillet knives and put their own unique stamp of American design on it. Then they produce them out of the most modern and top quality materials. These are not bargain basement items, but quality items rarely are and White River Knives are all a good value. If you own a White River product, you have one of the finest knives produced anywhere and you should be able to own it, use it and pass it on to future generations just as you would other great knives of the world.
Fillet knives are the tool many boaters and fisherman could never be without. They are the quickest and most effective way to separate the meat from bone whether it be fish or large game. The thin, flexible blades curve around bones and tendons without much pressure at all. These come with beautiful leather sheaths that you might expect on a classic hunting knife and they have a button security feature on the sheath that attaches to the butt end of the knife to prevent you from losing the it. A great feature on the open water.

Bringing Around Back Fives
Eero Ettala and Heikki Sorsa show you what it takes to turn out a backside 540.
There're some tricks that are more mandatory than others, and the backside 540 is one such trick. Rare is the rotation that's thrown as frequently and styled out in as many ways as the back five. Just watch the local park jump line any given Saturday and you'll see that the five is indeed a must-have. Heikki and Eero know this and are here to help you figure out how to toss a turn and a half this winter.—L.G.
1. A solid backside three and backside 180 are a must before you go givin' the back five a go. So dial in both, get comfortable spinning backside and landing fakie, and then step to the backside 540.
2. Make a set-up turn as you approach the jump. As you're traveling up the lip, transfer your weight onto your toes, wind up your shoulders a little, and stay low. Right before your board leaves the lip, initiate the spin with your shoulders and head, and pop off your toes.
3. Suck your knees up, grab melon, Indy, or maybe even tail as early as possible, and keep looking over your trailing shoulder.
4. As you come around to 360, take a quick look at the landing to make sure you're getting the sweet spot, and make any necessary adjustments in the last backside 180.
5. At 450 release your grab, lower your legs a little, and prepare to land flat-based. Stomp it, ride away fakie, lap back up, and give 'er another go, 'cause when it comes to back fives there's always room for improvement.
"If you know how to do backside threes, on a backside five you just have to pop a little bit harder."—Heikki Sorsa
"Yeah, and you have to have a little bit more spin off the lip. All the work is actually on the lip, like how fast you're going to start spinning and all that stuff. That's the main part you want to focus on."—Eero Ettala

The word lupus, meaning wolf, is also their given surname in Danish. --Danmark June 25 2010 19:47
Remus is also the twin brother of Romulus from Roman mythology. They were cared for by a wolf after being abandoned and left to float down the Tiber. Amazing stuff :)

Strong Defensive Effort Not Enough as Liberty Falls to Coastal Carolina, 7-6
Despite allowing a season-low seven goals, the Liberty lacrosse team could not overcome a slow offensive day as the Lady Flames fell to the visiting Coastal Carolina Chanticleers, 7-6, on Sunday afternoon at Liberty Lacrosse Field.
Liberty drops its second Big South Conference game of the weekend to fall to 1-3 in league play and 2-12 overall. Coastal improves to 4-10 on the season and 2-3 in Big South matches.
The story of the first half was the great play by Liberty goalkeeper, Kristen Masullo. The senior tallied seven of her 10 first half saves in the opening 12:50 of the contest to keep the Chanticleers out of the scoring column.
Coastal Carolina finally snuck one past Masullo on a free-position attempt with 17:09 showing on the game clock, putting the visitors on top, 1-0.
The Lady Flames' offense broke through with their first marker of the game 1:17 later. Jen Moyer tallied her third goal of the season on a free-position shot to tie the contest at one apiece.
The match remained knotted at one until the 6:57 mark when Coastal's Maggie Carr notched a goal to give the Chanticleers the one-goal edge.
Liberty tied the game at two with 2:24 left until halftime. Nina Dunay set up Morgan Becker's first of two goals for the day for the Lady Flames.
Coastal scored the first two markers of the second stanza to take a 4-2 advantage with 6:55 elapsed on the game clock.
A mere 14 seconds after the Chanticleers' fourth goal, Dunay notched an unassisted tally to pull Liberty within one, at 4-3. The goal was Dunay's 18th of the season.
After a scoreless stretch of 7:10, Coastal once again went ahead by two on Sara Nolan's team-leading 25th goal of the season.
The Lady Flames responded with a pair of goals over a 2:45 span to even the match at 5-5. Kelly Belue set up the first goal, lofting a pass from behind the cage to a cutting Kallie Britton for the score. Michaela Rich delivered the equalizer, spinning away from a defender and firing her 14th goal of the season into the cage.
Coastal answered with a two-goal run of its own to take a 7-5 lead with 4:50 remaining in regulation.
Liberty pulled within one, at 7-6, on Becker's second goal of the game and 21st of the season. Sam Struss assisted on the play with 1:38 left in the contest.
The Lady Flames came up with the ensuing draw control, but were unable to convert on their final scoring opportunity as the Chanticleers held on for the 7-6 victory.
For the match, Coastal held the advantage in shots, 33-13, ground balls, 21-15, and draw controls, 9-6. Both squads finished the game with five caused turnovers. Liberty was successful on 12 of 19 clear attempts compared to 11 of 13 successful clears for Coastal.
Masullo finished the contest with 16 saves, her second highest total of the season. Masullo notched a .696 save percentage, which is the second highest percentage in a single-game in Liberty history. For the Chanticleers, Jenna Stover tallied five saves en route the win.
The Lady Flames will play their final road game of the season on Saturday. Liberty will play Davidson at 3 p.m.

1 Recommendation
Top-10-Download-list's recommendation
Juan DAliaga is proud to launch Now Playingâs first CD, which represents a lifetime of songwriting ambitions. The songs are conceived by Juan DAliaga in collaboration with producer and musician, Dave Levene and his collaborative partner the lyricist, Dale Lawrence. After an exhaustive search, during which time several singers passed the initial audition and were even recorded, Dave finally selected twenty three year old Will Barron from Cumming, Georgia to be the definitive voice of the band. Willâs youthful exuberance, vocal range and crucially his âfeelâ for the material made him the inevitable choice. With the bandâs lead singer in place Now Playing was ready to record their first album. Juan and Dave met in Peru in the late sixties and early seventies where the two began writing and arranging songs. Those songs are now being revisited with state of the art technology and a brand new generation of music. Check out their website here http://www.nowplayingband.com/

Oahu is one-stop Hawaii—all the allure of the Islands in a chop-suey mix that has you kayaking around offshore islets by day and sitting in a jazz club 'round midnight, all without ever having to take another flight or repack your suitcase. It offers both the buzz of modern living in jam-packed Honolulu (the state's capital) and the allure of slow-paced island life on its northern and eastern shores. It is, in many ways, the centre of the Hawaiian universe.
There are more museums, staffed historic sites, and walking tours here than you'll find on any other island. And only here do a wealth of renovated buildings and well-preserved neighborhoods so clearly spin the story of Hawaii's history. It's the only place to experience island-style urbanity, since there are no other true cities in the state. And yet you can get as lost in the rural landscape and be as laid-back as you wish.
Oahu is home to Waikiki, the most famous Hawaiian beach with some of the world's most famous surf on the North Shore and the Islands' best known historical site—Pearl Harbor. If it's isolation, peace, and quiet you want, Oahu is probably not for you, but if you'd like a bit of spice with your piece of paradise, this island provides it.

Umpteenth time I've posted a note on this wine (or some other vintage of this) - but this is among the very best value for money reds I've ever had, and pretty much sums up why I love Aussie Shiraz - when it's done well like this and not some inky, goopy mess. Equivalent of about US $20, under screwcap, consistent as always.
Clear dark red in colour, now just starting to show some lightening around the rim. Complex, exotic aromatics of white pepper, cinnamon, smoke and seawater (!) mingled with cherries and blueberries; medium bodied on the palate with more red and dark fruited flavours mingled with smoke and spices and plenty of structure underneath with fine grained tannins on the back end and bright acidity giving it lift. Really refreshing and long, excellent yet again.

A Grand Prize winner shall receive a "Withholding Taxes Paid Prize". "Withholding Taxes Paid Prizes" mean prizes where the Party Lottery pays the prize winner a net prize amount, that consists of the Party Lottery reducing the "gross prize value" by the required federal and jurisdictional withholding taxes (if any), and withholding and depositing on behalf of the prize winner the required federal and jurisdictional withholding taxes (if any) on the "gross prize value" and the Party Lottery paying the prize winner the residual amount (subject to any setoff requirements). Grand Prize winners will receive a Withholding Taxes Paid prize determined after deducting all applicable withholding taxes regardless of the "Advertised Grand Prize Amount", and which may be higher or lower than the "Advertised Grand Prize amount.
Federal and jurisdictional withholding tax rates are subject to change and will be determined at the time the prize is awarded.
The "Withholding Taxes Paid" prize amount reported to the federal and jurisdictional revenue authorities by the Party Lottery as subject to income taxation shall reflect the amount paid to the prize winner and also the amount remitted as withholding taxes to the federal and jurisdictional authorities (if any) on behalf of the prize winner.
The Party Lottery and MUSL are not responsible for additional income or other taxes applicable in excess of the amount withheld and remitted by the Party Lottery that may be due when the prizewinner files all tax returns for the year the prize is claimed; Prizewinners should verify personal tax liability with a financial adviser.
For example, if a single Grand Prize winner wins the "Advertised Grand Prize" of $2,000,000.00 that has a gross prize value of $3,050,000.00, and the federal withholding tax rate is 25% and the jurisdictional withholding tax rate is 6%, the Party Lottery will withhold and remit $762,500.00 in federal tax withholding, $183,000.00 in jurisdictional tax withholding and pay the prize winner $2,104,500.00 in a single cash prize payment (subject to any setoff requirements); at the end of the tax year the Party Lottery will communicate to the prizewinner a W-2G Form showing prize won of $3,050,000.00.

New Theater Program Has Tech Twist
March 15, 2008—
Michigan Tech's newest degree program, a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre and Electronic Media Performance, offers potential actors more than a place to polish their Shakespeare and Arthur Miller. It will also make them more marketable, according to Roger Held, chair of the Department of Visual and Performing Arts.
"We know that 50 percent of an actor's income comes from outside of the theater," Held says. "We want to enhance the technical abilities of a film student, for example, so he or she will be able to work in industrial and educational videos. It's a new approach."
Held also believes the new program will elevate the quality of student performances. "We have a reservoir of technically talented students, as our sets routinely show, and we want the acting quality to be on that same, high level," he says.
The best way to grow the program is slowly, Held says, and they anticipate five to seven students in each of the first few years to a maximum of 20. He also sees some 80 technicians helping the program from the department's other degree programs in audio production and technology, sound design, and theater and entertainment technology. That, too, is different.
"Most universities have 80 percent of their students in performance and 20 percent in the technical programs," Held says. "But we want to reverse that so we don't burn out the technical students and, at the same time, get our performance students more experience." And a different group of designers can be used for each show, he says.
And the program will have at least one more important difference. "Routinely, theater majors don't have the time to, or aren't allowed to, take courses in broadcasting or electronic media," says Patricia Helsel, an assistant professor in the department.
That can further help the actors market themselves, Helsel says. "It can really be a matter of survival," Helsel says.
There is work for actors, she contends, as long as they are willing to work in different areas, both geographically and professionally, "and that might include narration in video games or books on tape," Helsel says. She expects non-majors who want to express their creativity to sample some of the courses, too.
Michigan Technological University (www.mtu.edu) is a leading public research university developing new technologies and preparing students to create the future for a prosperous and sustainable world. Michigan Tech offers more than 120 undergraduate and graduate degree programs in engineering; forest resources; computing; technology; business; economics; natural, physical and environmental sciences; arts; humanities; and social sciences.
