Can anybody shed some light on A1/ B1 blades on the v3 V911?
I broke my first blade the other day and just swapped it out for one of the spares provided in the box (assuming they were all the same). After doing that I noticed that two of the blades are A1 and two are B1, so I don't know what it had on it from original. It now has an A1 and a B1 fitted. Do you have to have both A1 or both B1 or can they be mixed? Is there a difference between the blades? |

12. The battery comes with yellow 911 is longer and labeled 150mAh. On red v911 the battery is shorter and specs show 120mAh.
Jan 20, 2013, 01:12 AM | |
Does anyone know if the Y911 blades are available to buy as replacements? I haven't seen them, although I never actually broke one (despite my best attempts).
Waiting for a new Y911 to arrive to replace my last one which was swallowed by a mysterious black hole at the top of one of our trees. It was a tragic tale, last circuit on a dying battery, then sucked out of sight by a downdraft on the far side of the house . When it reappeared at full climb, the battery was fading and the wind blew it into the tree (before the black hole swallowed it!) Despite searching high and low (and my wife even went searching for it and climbed to the top of the tree looking) we couldn't find it Impressed with the Y911 though and it's been my favourite. Flies nice funnels and took a thrashing outside with almost nothing broken (just some landing skid repairs done with hot glue). Only mod was a Helios flybar, and an original canopy to save weight. |

Cook Healthier Restaurant Favorites
Restaurant Meals, Made Awesome!
Make your favorite restaurant dishes at home—cheaper, healthier, and tastier
Make your favorite restaurant dishes at home—cheaper, healthier, and tastier
Your most important food decision isn't what to order from a menu. It's whether to hop into the car, drive to a restaurant, wait for a table, and pick up that menu in the first place.
By the time you've made the trip and scored a table, you could be sitting down at home to a meal that tastes better, costs less, and is much healthier than the caloric bombs you'd tip a waitress to bring you.
The restaurant world is hazardous for any man hoping to control his weight. If you're looking for a burger, a plate of pasta -- or even just a salad -- it's difficult to find a entree that comes in under 1,000 calories. What's worse, you could end up ingesting a few days' worth of sodium, bad fats, and refined carbs.
There's a better way. In this excerpt from our new book, Cook This, Not That!, we'll show you how to whip up the kind of food men typically go out for. But you'll make it better. Best of all, these meals are easy (dare we say fun?), especially with a helper and a glass of wine. Let's get started.
Dr Pepper Ribs
Order ribs at a restaurant and you could gain a full pound by the time the bill comes. Think we're kidding? Outback's ribs have more calories than 15 Krispy Kreme Original doughnuts and more saturated fat than you should consume in 4 days. We've declared the dish one of the worst foods in America. But Outback isn't alone: Chili's, Applebee's, and Ruby Tuesday all bust 1,000 calories with some of their rib creations. With our at-home option, we suggest half a rack, and we tap into the surprisingly complex flavor of Dr Pepper to create a perfectly balanced sauce.
What you'll need:
2 racks baby back ribs
1 large (2 liter) bottle of Dr Pepper
1/4 cup salt
1 Tbsp chili powder
1/2 Tbsp canola oil or vegetable oil
1/2 onion, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup ketchup
2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 Tbsp cider vinegar
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
How to make it:
1 Place the ribs in a large baking dish. Pour in Dr Pepper to cover them, reserving at least 1/2 cup for the sauce. Add the salt and soak the ribs in the fridge overnight (or at least 2 hours).
2 Heat the oven to 350°F. Remove the ribs from the liquid, dry them, and rub with the chili powder. Place them on a baking dish, add 1 cup of water, and cover tightly with foil. Cook for 2 hours, until the meat nearly falls off the bone.
3 For the barbecue sauce, heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Saute the onion and garlic until they're soft and fragrant, and add the ketchup, Worcestershire, vinegar, cayenne, and 1/2 cup of Dr Pepper. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.
4 Fire up the grill, and brush the ribs with sauce. When the grill is hot, cook them bone side down on a cooler part for 10 to 15 minutes. Flip them and cook until lightly charred and smoky. Remove, and brush on more sauce. Makes 4 servings
Per serving:
400 calories, 15 grams (g) fat, 1,140 milligrams (mg) sodium
Cost per serving:
Outback Baby Back Ribs (full rack)
3,021 calories, 242 g fat, 4,648 mg sodium
Save 2,621 calories and $11.78!

wow amazing poetry. Mary Oishi poem touched very deep.
Adoptees Express Anguish Over Veronica's Separation Through Poetry
Three adult adoptees, all non-Indian, have turned to poetry to share their overwhelming grief for Veronica Brown's inevitable separation anxiety; for Dusten Brown's loss of his child; and for the Cherokee Nation's heartache over the removal of an Indian child who should be raised among her family and tribal community, immersed in her culture.
RELATED: An Emotional Reaction: Mothers, Adoptive Parents, Adoptees Speak Out About Baby Veronica's Removal
Cherokee Nation Mourns As Veronica Is Returned to Adoptive Family
Capobiancos Sue Dusten Brown for Nearly Half a Million in Fees
"Veronica" by Rebecca Hawkes
They tell us this has nothing to do with us.
They say we aren't you.
But we know better.
We are experiencing our own separation all over again.
We are both inside and outside our own bodies.
Projection, they say.
Reaction, I say.
It is happening again.
It is happening to you.
It is happening to us.
The only difference is that this time
We have not only our cries but also
Our voices.
Rebecca Hawkes is a reunited adult adoptee and a mother to a daughter by birth and a daughter by open adoption from foster care. She lives in Western Massachusetts with her husband and daughters and is a co-founder of ashleysmoms.com. You can read her writings on adoption, family and identity at her blog Sea Glass & Other Fragments.
Hawkes' poem was originally published by thelostdaughters.com.
"Equality" by Rosita (she requested ICTMN use only her first name)
Her cries are real, and his too. There is anguish in the eyes of a small four-year-old.
Baby Veronica is now in the arms of her adopted parents, Matt and Melanie Capobianco. Yet, whose arms are now empty?
A man. A father. Dusten Brown weeps for his daughter as she does for him. Here is where our system has failed. A man who desperately wants to be a father was denied the right. He was overlooked in the process.
As a feminist, I should make clear that I believe in the true definition of feminism … "the doctrine advocating social, political, and all other rights of women equal to those of men." But this assumes that men have rights.
In the case of Baby Veronica, her father did not have the rights that her birth mother did. He was misled. Birth fathers should have equal rights and protections, especially in the welfare of their children.
If a birth mother decides she cannot parent her child, and the birth father wants to raise his child, he should be given the opportunity to do so. No other adult should be given that right unless both birth parents have relinquished it.
Dusten Brown has proven that he loves his daughter. He has provided for her, cared for her, cuddled her and nurtured her for almost two years.
Baby Veronica knows he loves her, and she wants to stay with him. Her right in all this is paramount. She deserves the love of her birth father, the man she will never forget.
Rosita is a transracial, Korean-American adoptee. She is married to a Brit who refers to himself as an Anglo-American and is a mother to two Hapa children. Adopted in 1968 at the age of one, Rosita has not searched for her biological family. Her road has been speckled with Puerto Rican and Appalachian relatives and her biracial sister. While quite content with her role as a "Tennerican," her curiosity has grown recently as her children explore their own ethnic identities. She considers herself a lost daughter, not because of the loss of her birth family, but more because of the loss of her adopted mother, who died in 2001 as Rosita became a first time mother. When she is not supporting her children on their individual paths, Rosita spends her time as an art educator and an art photographer. She also shares her adventures as an adoptee and parent on her blog, mothermade.
Rosita's poem was originally published by thelostdaughters.com.
Baby Veronica by Mary Oishi
23, 24 & 25 September 2013
this day is begging for a poem
this day is running crazy down an oklahoma street, screaming
chasing carloads of federal marshalls and one little girl
who wants grandparents and cousins
a clan, a community, a daddy who looks like her
this day is chasing those marshalls, wailing
the cavalry of marshalls disappears from sight.
(Is this 1813 or 2013?)
this day falls in a heap exhausted
exhaling sobs
knowing the system always favors
wasichu values: more money.
greed washed righteous by "respectability"
flawless hygiene to cover a hollow life
numb with ritalin and prozac
its sterile feet squeezed into gold prada heels
parading as success
oh yeah, this day is begging for a poem
not a sonnet, not an ode, not some couplet
contrived behind ivyed walls
this day begs a poem, no, a prayer, forgotten prayer
rising slowly like a feather on the wind
joined by an eagle's call, a wolf's, a bear's
then ten thousand buffalo
thundering on ancient graves
a prayer that wakes the ancestors from
their too soon sleep from long walks and long rifles
until they rise up and follow Baby Veronica
walk beside her every step in the white man's world
whisper comfort so her Cherokee heart stays warm
in the strange cold heat of south carolina

To the adoptive parents your
To the adoptive parents your win is self centered and self indulging. You wanted a child and yes you raised her for 2 years while her father fought to get HIS child back. You will regret it latter on when she learns of what you did to her and her daddy. You will never be her REAL PARENT, trust me I know this as FACT. I am a parent of a native american child who is now raised. I had custody of her since she was 13months old, she had been in 4 foster homes prior to mine. After 3 years I received legal guardianship. She grew up always feeling loved but something was missing. She was being raised in and all white family. She knew she was different, and we exposed her to her birth mom and her culture, yet it was not enough. Until you understand the native american culture and the importance it plays in these young kids hearts you will not get it. When she becomes a teenager, and I dont care how much you spoil and love her and raise her to the best abilities possible. She will still heart for her idenity. Yep I said Heart, you will never fill that and the pride that she will carry with it. I know, my one son is half native American and the other half of him is white. He will tell you he is native american and he is proud and he is not a half breed.....His pride in His people is strong and so is my daughters. She is 27 now and she has fought a tough battle with identy for so many years and now is just coming to terms with who she is. She will be the first to tell you I was raised white, BUT iam Native American and I am proud of that quality I can say I am..... With you she might live in a bigger house, have more toys, go on more vacations, have plenty of support and love, but you will never be able to give her what her father and his culture would have been able to give her and that is the pride in who she is and her nationality. My daughter loves me and yes I am her mom, but like you I was nieve enough to think that would be enough. She now has finally made the connection with her tribe and she feels complete knowing her people as she calls them and their traditions. I am so proud of her, but it was a tough road and I just wished she could of had her real parents or relative be able to be apart of her childhood so her life would of been a little more blessed and her place in society would of been defined while she was still young. I feel for this father, for all you out there saying he should not of claimed his own blood, you are the ones looking like you dont care for this precious little one. I too wanted a little baby and I went about it legally and my experience was alot of heart ache knowing at anytime I could lose her if her mom could complie to court mandates. Yet even after she knew she was going to lose her she was the one who started the legal guardianship papers to make us her parents. Yet I never took her mom away from her even if it meant setting up meatings and her never showing up. Calls in the middle of the night from her. I made sure all the windows were open for her to see her daughter. When her older brother also in the system turned 18 and wanted to see her, I complied on my own money and flew him from South Dakota to Washington to meet her. That is when I first saw her light up with a connection to her missing link. Thats when I realized you can give a child all the love in the world and all the opportunities, yet if they are of a different race something will always be missing that they subconsious or consiously know will hunger for to feel complete. To the adoptive parents please realize her daddy loves her just as much as you do and he has a conection that you so dreamed of before you got her. Its a sad story with a little one who will serch and question till she finds her answers. I pray for you all. Especially you Veronica.....you deserved so much more than your birth mother ever allowed you to experience because of her selfish selfcentered neglegent greedy hateful personality in punishing your daddy.
Yea, it looks to me like all
Yea, it looks to me like all kinds of different people who are biological family to the little cherokee are going nuts over her.She is a very precious for certain. But the ones who not her true blood seem very desperate.

Work in Shakespeare's England
When the young William Shakespeare went to London, almost a hundred miles away from his hometown of Stratford Upon Avon, to look for work, he was doing something unusual.... more »
Read Macbeth's "Is this a dagger which I see before me" soliloquy below with modern English translation & analysis.
Spoken by Macbeth, Macbeth Act 2 Scene 1
Is this a dagger which I see before me,
The handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutchthee.
I have thee not, and yet I see thee still.
Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible
To feeling as to sight? or art thou but
A dagger of the mind, a false creation,
Proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain?
I see thee yet, in form as palpable
As this which now I draw.
Thou marshall'st me the way that I was going;
And such an instrument I was to use.
Mine eyes are made the fools o' the other senses,
Or else worth all the rest; I see thee still,
And on thy blade and dudgeon gouts of blood,
Which was not so before. There's no such thing:
It is the bloody business which informs
Thus to mine eyes. Now o'er the one halfworld
Nature seems dead, and wicked dreams abuse
The curtain'd sleep; witchcraft celebrates
Pale Hecate's offerings, and wither'd murder,
Alarum'd by his sentinel, the wolf,
Whose howl's his watch, thus with his stealthy pace.
With Tarquin's ravishing strides, towards his design
Moves like a ghost. Thou sure and firm-set earth,
Hear not my steps, which way they walk, for fear
Thy very stones prate of my whereabout,
And take the present horror from the time,
Which now suits with it. Whiles I threat, he lives:
Words to the heat of deeds too cold breath gives.
"Is This A Dagger Which I See Before Me" Soliloquy Translation:
It was totally silent. And pitch black. It was now or never. Macbeth stared into the darkness. And as he looked it seemed that a dagger hung there. He closed his eyes and opened them again. It was still there. He peered. It didn't waver. Was it really a dagger? Its handle towards his hand?
He tried to clutch it. His hand went right through it: it was still there and yet he couldn't feel it. Was it only a dagger of the mind, a false creation of a fevered brain?
He could still see it as he drew his own, real, dagger: it was pointing the way to Duncan's room. He knew he was seeing things and yet it was so real. And now there was blood on it, which hadn't been there before.
It was ridiculous. There was no such thing. He knew it was the violence in his mind that was coming out in the form of a bloody dagger.
His mind was filled with images of fear and horror and he stood there, overwhelmed by them, until a bell rang and brought him back to the business in hand.
'I go, and it is done: the bell invites me.' He began walking. 'Don't hear it, Duncan; for it's a knell that summons you to heaven or to hell.'

I dont think being an expert technical writer is necessary where I work but one at least has to know the basics. I have to communicate with our sales team daily about production requirements, how much oil they need, how much we can produce, and this is all done by e-mail and conference calls. Also, submitting capital projects requires some technical writing skills since you have to write coverletters when you ask for money and have to show payback calculations. I know it really helps to be a good writer when asking for funding because if you can explain why the money will be used for a really good idea then it will more often get approved than if a coverletter didn't give a good description of what the project is, and nice graphs, tables, and calculations always help. I also have to write procedures (e.g. shutting down the plant to keep it offline for a few days). Again, being an expert writer isn't necessary but one at least has to be understandable. I do think the technical writing courses I took in college were useful in showing me how to properly put tables into a document that many important people will see, and also just how to write professionally. I hope this helps. Jocelyn

Ever wonder if homebuyers are spooked by a cemetery next door? The folks at Redfin did. So they took a look at the data.
It turns out having your neighbors six feet under can be a boon for your sale price.
Redfin discovered that homes within 50 feet of a graveyard took, on average, nine days longer to sell, but then sold for a higher price than homes further away. On average, the homes closest to a cemetery sold for $162 a square foot, while homes more than 500 yards from the tombs sold for $145 per square foot.
This is particularly good news for sellers in Chicago, which Redfin says had the third largest number of homes for sale near a cemetery in the country, with 115 listed as of Oct. 15.
You can see more of the Redfin data here, as well as many graveyard-inspired puns in the write-up of their findings.

Pumpkins are good for more than carving
By Jennifer Nelson, M.S., R.D. and Katherine Zeratsky, R.D.

When you think about pumpkins, you probably think Halloween jack-o'-lanterns and pumpkin pie. But there are other ways to use pumpkins. They can grace doorsteps or be part of a centerpiece on your Thanksgiving table.
Pumpkins are so much more than decorations, though. They're packed with antioxidants and nutrients. The pulp is an abundant source of vitamin A and the seeds full of zinc.
You can eat any pumpkin, but the smaller pumpkins — often referred to as pie or sugar pumpkins — are sweeter. Wash and then cut pumpkin in half. Remove and reserve the seeds. At this point, you can microwave or bake the pumpkin halves to make it easier to remove the skin and cut up the flesh. Then try these creative ways to enjoy pumpkin:
- Roast with other squash or root vegetables
- Dice and add to soups or stews
- Roast and puree to use in lasagna or as ravioli filling
- Toast the seeds and eat as a snack or use as toppings for soups and salads
Where will your pumpkin be this autumn? On the table as a centerpiece or taking center stage on your dinner menu? Please share your best pumpkin recipes to inspire others.
To your health,

12-26-11 – Dallas, TX>Austin, TX – The Drowsy Chaperone
This recent Tony Award winner for Best Musical on Broadway revolves around one musical theatre fan's obsession with a fictional show from the 1920s – 'The Drowsy Chaperone'.

This is the story of a Broadway actress, Janet Van De Graaaff, who wants to marry the debonair Robert Martin and give up her stage career. Janet's producer, Mr. Feldzieg, must stop the wedding because if she quits show business, he'll lose his job! Further, gangsters threaten Mr. Feldzieg since if Janet quits, they lose their investment. All of this comes to life out of the imagination of 'The Man in the Chair' as 1920′s mayhem and mischief ensue. An old-fashioned laugh-a-minute crowd pleaser. — Submit Yourself To This Role Now: Live Event

Another sweet vintage Fender acoustic!
Greetings! New member here.
Recently purchased a beautiful 1980 Fender FJ-70 sunburst jumbo acoustic. Picture and review here: http://acousticpickers.blogspot.com/2012/03/1980-fender-fj-70.html
Since then also just picked up a 1980 Fender F-50 (review will be up tomorrow). Love these vintage Fender acoustics!
Welcome to the group Rev. glad you're so happy with your Fender. No worries about your profile pic we here at Fender the Forgotten Acoustics are friendly to all guitars but especially Fenders :)
Hi everyone, I apologize that my profile pic shows a different brand name and body style, but I have a pre-owned (and my I say well maintained) CD-110 CE, one of two pre-owned dreadnoughts. I played this guitar along with other new Fenders in the local shop and was not disappointed with the sound of any of them. But when I found out this guitar was priced less than the new CD-110 CEs (and given that it's black), I seized the opportunity to buy this guitar. No regrets. Now that's three guitars I love to play!
Thought I'd share a couple of pics:
My CD-220 SCE in action at Dan McLean's Acoustic Open Stage at Sarah's Cafe & Bar, Toronto ON shortly after I bought it in May 2011:
A truly excellent venue with a great vibe and a supportive audience.
And my ancient F-35 at a world record guitar ensemble attempt:
You can't see any of them but there were over 1600 other guitars in Dundas Square, Toronto on that June day in 2009 all playing Neil Young's Helpless. Unfortunately we fell about 150 short of setting the record.

A Department of Education report states 66 percent of 2007-2008 graduates took out student loans.
The new federal regulations may encourage vocational programs to graduate students with less debt.
Increasing the information available about programs could benefit both undergraduates and law students.
One student loan servicer reportedly has relatively few borrowers enrolled in income-based repayment.
More than 600,000 borrowers who started repayment in 2010 are facing the consequences of default.
As fewer banks make private student loans, some borrowers are struggling to repay existing ones.
Students in the loan alternative program may need to borrow for books and other college costs.
One company allows students to pitch themselves – instead of a startup – to funders.
The president's college affordability plan would allow all borrowers to enroll in Pay As You Earn.
Student loan debt can affect entrepreneurs' ability to take risks and borrow capital.

EDMONTON - Back in the day, it was known as sauerkraut, and your oma made it as a way of wrestling that 50 pounds of cabbage in the back garden into something like submission.
But if your dear, departed oma was alive today, she might have been more than an apron-wearing, wire-rimmed producer of provisions for the winter. She might have been known as a "fermento" and been part of a new movement that is taking a deeper, closer look at food preserved through fermentation.
Fermentos are devotees who believe in the health-giving properties (not to mention great taste) of foods that rely on what food activist and author Michael Pollan calls "the unseen universe of microbes all around and within us."
These are the bacteria, moulds and fungi that "cook" food by changing its chemistry, breaking it down into easier-to-digest and therefore more nutritious food that, coincidentally, schmecks. Pickles are fermented foods, as are kimchee, miso, soy sauce, kefir and yogurt, not to mention sourdough bread, beer and wine.
All these substances are created through an open marriage with the natural world, where bacteria are plentiful, and not always to be avoided or feared.
Megan Miller, who teaches workshops on fermentation for Earth's General Store, chuckles at the thought of herself as a "fermento." But she acknowledges it's an accurate description.
The mother of two wee ones, with a third on the way, has become a passionate advocate for fermentation since she first began making her own kefir, salsa and sourdough several years ago. Miller, who has been studying nutrition as a hobby for a decade, has come to appreciate the perspective of fermented food advocates such as Sandor Katz (The Art of Fermentation) and Sally Fallon (Nourishing Traditions).
Fermentation is no fad; people have been fermenting foods for thousands of years simply as a way to preserve products through the lean, hard winter. Fermentation became less necessary when refrigeration was invented, and less popular when mass-produced convenience foods emerged in the mid-1950s.
But proponents such as Katz, Fallon and Pollan have reminded us of the benefits of this traditional method of food preparation, with disciples such as Miller spreading the word anew.
Not only does Miller believe fermented foods contribute much-needed "good" bacteria to our digestive system, helping to maintain the health of the gut, she is fascinated with the science, the chemistry, the way in which substances such as salt or whey react with other foods to create an environment that discourages the growth of pathogens.
"It's about experimentation, it's children's science fun," she says. "It's become a big part of my life and it's really good for the kids."
Fermentos also believe that many commercially processed foods (from pasteurized milk cheese to preservative-laden bread) have been robbed of the health benefits of good bacteria. Putting fermented foods into our diets (either directly by eating fermented vegetables or fruits, or by tossing products such as ponzu sauce or fermented garlic into recipes) adds much-needed nourishment, as well as lip-smacking flavour.
Miller includes some kind of fermented food, from salsa to preserved lemons, in most lunches and dinners at her family table. The children, three and five, clamour for salsa on their eggs or in tacos, and mom's homemade ketchup is also a big hit.
Miller also loves the process of making fermented foods, relishes digging her hands deep into a crock of cabbage and salt and watching as the moisture is pulled from the cabbage, creating the brine that preserves the vegetables. She also appreciates the fact that no expensive equipment is required, although a nice, deep crock makes foods easier to mix.
Miller recommends newbie fermenters start with an easy preparation, in a small batch, such as cordito, a sauerkraut-like condiment made from shredded carrots, onions and cabbage with punch of chili pepper for extra zing.
For more details on upcoming workshops on fermentation, call Earth's General Store at 780-439-8725. A word of warning, however; once you developed a taste for fermented foods, there is no going back.
Cordito Sauerkraut
Miller adapted this recipe from Nourishing Traditions, by Sally Fallon. It produces between two and three quarts/litres of sauerkraut and will last in the fridge for months.
1 large cabbage, cored and shredded
2 cups (500 mL) carrots, grated
2 onions, grated
1 tablespoon (15 mL) dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon (2 mL) red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons (25 mL) salt
Mix all ingredients in a large bowl or crock. Pound or massage the mixture until sufficient juices rise to cover the food, usually about 10 minutes. Press the mixture tightly into a large Mason jar, making sure there is a layer of liquid at the top of each jar. The jars must be clean, but they don't need to be sterilized. Cover tightly and store at room temperature, out of direct sunlight for three to seven days. Transfer to cold storage, such as a fridge or cold room.

THE COMPUTER WORM known as Stuxnet was stealthy. It was able to inject malicious code into the devices controlling Iran's uranium enrichment centrifuges and deceive the operators while quietly sabotaging the centrifuges. The intent was to slow Iran's accumulation of highly enriched uranium, which could contribute to the making of a nuclear bomb.
Much has been learned about how Stuxnet functioned since it was first discovered more than two years ago by computer security experts. But the recent disclosure that Stuxnet was approved by both Presidents George W. Bush and Obama as a covert operation aimed at Iran sheds new light on a nascent U.S. offensive cyberweapons program that has largely existed in the shadows. Instead of forcing cyberweapons into deeper secrecy, the disclosure should prompt a more open and thorough policy debate about 21st-century threats and how they will be countered with American power.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
"If I Did it again I would buy the heavier card stock. It's a lovely card and the proof, review and customer service were fantastic. Great value for the price."
"We loved how our Save the Date turned out. It was exactly what we wanted, and very reasonable in terms of price. I would absolutely recommend using Wedding Paper Divas."
"Thank you so much for starting off my wedding preparations in an elegant way. The hand written thank you card was definitely a first and memorable experience."
"I ordered this save the date because it matched the invitation that we liked. I loved the color and how simple but elegant it was. I also requested to have our wedding website printed on the back and it was at no charge. Everything looks great and we are very happy with the outcome!"
"This is the first time I purchased from this site and I was very happy. The online sample didn't allow me to place text and a picture on the back. I was a bit reluctant to pay ahead of time and then work with a designer to customize the back of the Save the Date - but it worked out great. They were quick and I didn't have to edit once they layed out the back. I did the card with rounded corners - you have to pay more for stamps but worth it for the cool look. I was very happy overall with these Save the Date Cards and can't wait for my guests to recieve."

DES MOINES - Dr. Earl Rose, the medical examiner in Dallas when President Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, has died at age 85.
Dr. Rose's wife, Marilyn, said he died Tuesday at Oaknoll retirement community in Iowa City.
She said he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and then developed dementia.
The Des Moines Register first reported Dr. Rose's death.
Kennedy was taken to Parkland Memorial Hospital after he was shot on Nov. 22, 1963. Dr. Rose insisted that an autopsy be performed and stood in a doorway to block Kennedy's aides as they removed his coffin.
The Roses moved from Dallas to Iowa City in 1968, where he was a forensic pathologist and University of Iowa professor.
A memorial service will be held June 11 in Iowa City.

That's the comparison Anniston volunteer assistant track and field coach Joe Jankoski made when surmising the obstacles the school's jumpers have faced for years.
Despite not having a long jump pit to train at their track across from Chink-Lott Memorial Stadium for their events for much of the season, five Anniston athletes qualified for the state track and field championships in Gulf Shores this past weekend in the long and triple jumps.
Jankoski, the executive director at the Calhoun County Community Development Corporation, recently decided to get one dug. Hopefully, the ability to train and go through the full motion required to complete a jump will open up some potential opportunities for college, where track athletes specialize more as opposed to competing in four events.
"Talent takes you very far," Jankoski said. "Training can take you to that next step. Based on talent and some training, these guys were able to qualify."
The space for a pit was there, but it hadn't been used in roughly 20 years. From time to time, Anniston would use Donoho and Ft. McClellan's facilities to practice the jumping events. However, transporting students from both Anniston High and Anniston Middle to an alternative site to practice was problematic.
"The ability to train right here locally in our spot helps us immensely," Jankoski said.
After finding the dimensions — the pit is 9 feet wide, 25 feet long and 18 inches deep — Solutia Global Solutions helped Jankoski find funding, and Allen Excavating dug the pit.
Webb Concrete donated the sand.
"Sometimes you just have to find people who are in areas that might be able to help you,"Jankoski said. "They were gracious enough to help us out with this."
The project isn't complete yet. Jankoski said he's been quoted a price of $1,500 to repave the runway, leading to the pit. The strip would be 130 feet long and four feet wide.
The strip would also double as an area for the hurdlers, who currently train on grass, to practice more effectively.
Jankoski has secured $450 toward the runway and is still in search of funding to go through with the project.
• Woodland's Howard receiving big time interest: At the beginning of football season this past fall, Woodland coach Larry Strain handed running back Michael Howard a letter of interest from Ole Miss.
Since then, the 5-foot-10, 200-pound junior said, things have taken off.
Howard, a first-team selection to The Star's All-Area squad, said he suspects he should receive his first offer from North Carolina State soon. He's also received interest from LSU, Arkansas and Tennessee.
He attended spring games at Ole Miss and Southern Mississippi and was invited to Tennessee's.
Howard rushed for 1,602 yards and 19 touchdowns last season.
Strain said 6-foot-5, 250-pound offensive lineman Al Davis, also a first-team all-area choice, is being recruited by the likes of Maryland, Memphis, Arkansas State, Jacksonville State, Samford, UAB, Florida Atlantic and UT-Chattanooga.
• I got you: I got a call Sunday evening to remind me of a glaring omission in Sunday's paper and I told the person who called me I'd do right by them.
Amid the myriad of Bulldogs and Lady Bulldogs who became state champions on the final day of the Class 4A state track meet. I forgot to mention Anniston's boys' 400-meter relay squad.
Vashad Wilson, the state 100-meter dash champion, and Andre Patton, the state 200-meter dash champion, combined with DaMonta Miller and Fred Jordan to take the crown with a blistering time of 43.2.
Congratulations, fellas.

We have been T-mobile customer for 7 years...because the coverage is so poor and, my kids are in HS and need the smart phones for several classes, we will be switching carriers unless they can give a real good reason to stay. My college grad just switched to Verizon for obvious reasons. Much better coverage. What's the sense in better rates (tmobile) if the service is not there. Last week customer loyalty gave us a very good deal but, they said they would call us back 2 days later to finalize when my daughte was out of contract. Never heard back. SO i called them and was told "oh, that was a one time deal" can't give you that...I asked to speak to a supervisor but he was busy. They also said they would email the guy who made the "great" deal since he was out of the office. Have not heard back from anyone. My son is the only one still in contract and, that was one of the things they were going to overlook w/a new phone for him. SO, here we are no closer to a resolution and still STUCK with Tmobile...the WORST coverage/dropped calls/ freezing of phone, etc...LET ME OUT!!!!!!!!!

We made the move to T-Mobile back in March because of the cost savings over Verizon. We had been with Verizon for 9 years and spent about $14000 but the costs were exceptionally high in comparison with T-Mobile. I pleaded with Verizon to offer us some type of loyalty discount without success. At the time T-Mobile was in the process of joining AT&T. Unfortunately that did not happen. With all that said. our coverage for voice and data here in Park City, Salt Lake City and surrounding areas and Pennsylvania and Georgia were we travel to see family has been fair at best and non existent many times. I will be dropping T-Mobile as soon as we get closer to the end of our 2 year jail term. Verizon, if only you were as competitive in price as you are with coverage I would have no complaints.

I wanted to unlock my phone to use overseas. I was sent an "unlock code" and went to the T-mobile store to have them unlock it for me. After four tries, with only one try left, each one was unsuccessful. I called customer service and was told I would have a new unlock code the next day. The next day no unlock code received. I called again and was assured it would be provided by the person who initially sent me the code who works in the SIM unlock department. He was to start his shift that afternoon. Next day, no unlock code. I called again and was assured it would be provided the next day. Sound familiar????? The next day was a holiday and customer service was closed. The day after that I spoke to someone in the expedite department, whatever that is, and was assured I would have it that afternoon. Well, the code arrived but it was the same code that didn't work in the first place. I'M SO DONE WITH T-MOBILE. Tomorrow I'm going to AT&T to switch my provider.

T- mobile has charged me a $968.96 fee for phone resting fee that they have and a $200 per phone cancellation fee. I have two phones. Just after T-Mobile and AT&T said that they were merging together, one of my phones stopped working. At the time I didn't think much about it since I was supposed to be covered by an extended insurance plan that I had to pay monthly for. I figured great at least I was covered and I didn't need to buy a new phone. How wrong I was. I call up T-Mobile tech support, they agreed the phone needed to be replaced. A week later my refurbished phone shows up and it works fine as long as you don't need to hear anything since the speaker didn't work. I call again they repeat the process, a week later another phone shows up and will not take a charge. Back to T-Mobile tech support, they agree the phone is bad. The said 'let me send you one last phone Im sure that this one will work fine'. I said 'ok', a week goes by the refurbished phone shows up and the touch screen doesn't work. Back to T-Mobile tech support, they asked me to bring the phone to a store I said ok; the store and tech support both agreed it another bad phone. So I am at the store and the said that they have to mail me a phone. I can't just get one from the store. I said whatever at this point I haven't had a cell phone for just over a month and half what's another week right. So a week goes by and the sent me a LG phone that was refurbished but works great no problems. At this point I have sent all phones back and was happy just to have a phone that works. My next billing cycle comes and T-mobile had auto debited $968.96 for phone restocking fees pause my regular monthly phone bill. I call t-mobile 23 times trying to get them to remove the fee or to apply the fee to my future bills. Almost every call the customer service rep hung up on me or their manager would the only answer I got was too bad that's how it is. I have filed a complaint with the better business bureau and small claims court. So far nothing but I will not give up. What ever the cost don't get T-mobile or AT&T since the are now are working together

Singer Lady Gaga has apologized to fans for canceling a concert in Indiana Thursday after she collapsed due to exhaustion and dehydration.
RELATED VIDEO: Gaga Cancels Concert after Collapse
"I've been crying for hours, I feel like I let my fans down 2nite," she said via Twitter. "An hour before the show, I was feeling dizzy and having trouble breathing.
"Paramedics came to take care of me, and told me my heart-rate was irregular-- a result of exhaustion and dehydration," she added. "Can't apologize enough for how sorry I am. I could hear my fans cheering from my dressing room, I begged everyone to let me go onstage."
She said she was so "so devastated" because she would never "cancel a show just based on discomfort." Said the singer, 23: "I have performed with the flu, a cold, strep throat."
In this case, though, "everyone was concerned I'd be in danger during the 2hr show since I had passed out earlier," she wrote.
Before signing off, she wrote, "I hope you can forgive me. I love my little monsters more than anything, you are everything to me."
She said she will give a "make-up the performance" Jan. 26 at Purdue University.

Three out of five businesses (59%) believe that conversion rate optimisation is crucial to their overall digital marketing strategy, according to a new report from Econsultancy and RedEye.
A further 40% of respondents consider CRO to be 'important' (31%) or 'quite important' (9%). In contrast, only 1% of businesses believe that CRO is 'not important'.
This highlights the growing focus on CRO in an increasingly competitive online marketplace, fuelled in part by more advanced targeting and personalisation technologies.
The findings come from the fifth annual Conversion Rate Optimization Report which is based on a survey of almost 1,000 client-side and agency digital marketers.

Britain is renowned for its hit and miss weather, so to help online retailers react to the ever-changing forecast this summer I've pulled together five top tips for boosting conversions, whether it's rain or shine.

Once you have captured your visitor, all you need to do is convert them.
The old ideas centered around linear conversion funnels and site design are being overtaken by a focus on the customer and their lifecycle with the brand or business.
Here we talk about some of the factors that need to be considered and suggest five proven lifecycle-related campaigns that can be implmented with today's generation of marketing automation services.

In ecommerce much of the focus is on the best ways to attract traffic and visitors, meaning that tactics for conversion rate optimisation are often neglected.
In fact our new Adobe Digital Marketing Optimisation Survey found that a majority of companies (53%) spend less than 5% of their total marketing budgets on optimisation activities, despite the fact that a small uplift in conversion rates can translate into thousands of dollars of extra revenue.
One relatively easy way of improving conversions is by making sure you have the best possible call-to-action (CTA).
There's no exact formula for the perfect ecommerce CTA, but there are some aspects that web designers should focus on tweaking and testing to make sure they're maximising their conversion rate.

Automatic carousels have come under increasing fire this year from this blog, and UX experts like Jacob Nielsen and conversion pros like Peep Laja.
The conclusion, which all three of us share, is that unadulterated carousels are bad for business!
In this post I'll show you three ways to improve the relevancy of content that occupies your carousel 'hero' locations and the contribution it makes to your conversion rate.

Product returns are a major problem for online retailers as each unwanted order obviously incurs a cost, which then raises the dilemma of who is to pay for postage.
Passing the cost onto customers is certain to put people off ordering again in future, but absorbing the cost might not be feasible for all businesses.
Ideally retailers should try and reduce the need to return items in the first place, and we've previously written about a shoe fitting app that reduced fit-related returns by 23%.
Now ASOS has launched a new tool, Virtusize, that has the potential to achieve an even greater rate of success, as it has already proven to reduce fit-related returns by up to 50% on other ecommerce sites.

The perennial business problems of budget and resource availability are the main barriers to adopting or improving testing processes, according to a new survey by Adobe.
Just under half of respondents said that budget (45%) and lack of resources (42%) were "very challenging" problems when it came to testing, while "knowing how to test effectively" is the third most challenging area (37%).
But these results are unsurprising when compared with the report's broader findings.
The data shows that a majority of companies (53%) spend less than 5% of their total marketing budgets on optimization activities, while a further 49% of respondents stated that testing is not a priority at their company.

It's that time again where we present the week's finest digital marketing infographic.
This time it comes from Quick Sprout and looks at optimising contact forms for conversions. Admittedly the colour scheme is quite bland, but the quality of the information elevates it above the others I've seen this week.
It includes stats on the optimum number of fields per form and the kind of personal information you should avoid asking for.
To find out more on this topic read our blog post detailing three case studies about optimising lead generation forms or check out our Conversion Rate Optimisation Guide.

Despite the massive growth in mobile traffic over the past two years almost half (45%) of businesses still don't have a mobile-optimized site or app, according to a new report from Adobe.
Only 7% have built mobile apps and around a fifth (21%) have implemented both a mobile-optimized site and a mobile app.
There is no one-size-fits-all strategy for mobile and organizations need to devise their approach based on their business needs, but even so it's surprising that so many are still relying solely on a desktop site.
The Adobe 2013 Digital Marketing Optimization Survey, with analysis carried out by Econsultancy, received global responses from more than 1,800 digital marketers across North America, Europe and Asia.
