MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. – Junior midfielder Doug Takac registered a game-high five points on a goal and four assists to lead the Hilbert College men's lacrosse team past Emmanuel College, 10-6, Wednesday morning in spring break action at the Ashley Booth Filed. With the win, the Hawks improved to 1-2 on the year while the loss drops the Saints to 2-2.
Emmanuel outscored Hilbert in both the second and fourth quarters but fortunately the Hawks had break-out opening sessions to start and restart action in the first and third quarters.
Hilbert opened the scoring with a man-up goal by sophomore attackman Elliott Russillio just 1:38 into the game. Minutes later, senior middie James Knapp made it 2-0 on an unassisted score. Emmanuel cut the lead in half when freshman middie Chris Curtis (Ashland, Mass.) buried a shot with the help of a Jake Jaskolski (St. Clair Shores, Mich.) assist to make it 2-1.
The Hawks controlled the remainder of the action in the opening quarter as senior midfielder John Pingitore and Takac netted goals just 49 seconds apart to give the Hawks a 4-1 lead heading into the second quarter.
The only goal in the second period came at the 5:09 mark when Emmanuel junior attacker Brian O'Regan (Milton, Mass) converted a feed from freshman Kaile MacLeadn-Daley (Moretown, Vt.) to make it 4-2 heading into the halftime intermission.
Hilbert sophomore midfielder Brendan Kane opened the second half scoring with a marker at 8:57 to put the Hawks on top 5-2 before MacLean-Daley answered with his first score of the afternoon to keep the game within reach at 5-3.
Over the final five minutes of the quarter the Hawks would take control of the action, outscoring the Saints 4-1 during the span to take the 9-4 lead into the final quarter. Junior middie Nick Kieffer started to run with a score to make it 6-3 before junior attacker Sean Purtill netted a man-up score to make it 7-3. Junior middie Shaughn Irving gave the Hawks their largest lead of the day with his score with 4:03 remaining in the third to make it 8-3. MacLean-Daley struck for the Saints, potting his second goal of the afternoon to make it 8-4 but sophomore middie Drew Ulbrich capped the quarter's scoring with a goal with 1:48 left to make it 9-4 heading into the final quarter.
The Saints made it interesting, scoring two goals early in the action to cut the lead to 9-6 with over 11 minutes remaining as Jaskolski and Curtis each found the back of the net but despite numerous man-up situations, Emmanuel could not get any closer and a score by Hilbert's sophomore attackman Elliot Russillio with 9:03 to play was more than enough for the Hawks to hold on for the 10-6 win.
Emmanuel outshot the Hawks 53-32 on the afternoon but only put 19 shots on frame in which 13 were stopped by sophomore goalie William Wagner for his first win of the year. Saints goalkeeper Austin Lauzier was brilliant in first half, stopping eight shots and finished the game with 10 saves.
Hilbert is idle until March 20 when they travel to Thiel College at 4:00 PM.

She received her Ph.D. in East Asian history in 2011 from the University of California, Santa Cruz. Her dissertation, Itineraries for a Republic, Travel Culture and Tourism in Modern China, 1866-1954, traces the development of modern Chinese tourism and diverse experiences of travel in China from the last years of the Qing dynasty to the early years of the People's Republic, illustrating how the sense of national belonging was formulated in a country with vast regional differences in an age of political fragmentation. Before joining LIU Post, she was Visiting Assistant Professor of East Asian History at Albion College for the 2011 academic year. Dr. Mo's research and teaching interests span modern East Asia and China, especially the social, cultural, and gender history of the twentieth century.

Thoughts of last year fueled Timberland's players during practice all week.
On Friday, they got their shot at revenge against rival Hanahan and erased memories of that blowout loss with a 25-14 victory over the Hawks. "We talked all week about how we got embarrassed last year," Timberland coach Art Craig said. "It was probably our worst loss since I've been here." Hanahan, which snapped a 10-game losing skid in the series with a 41-0 romp in 2013, turned the ball over three times and missed a short field goal in falling to 0-2. Timberland's defense set the tone in the first half, getting a pair of Shamel Williams interceptions to help build an 18-7 lead at halftime. Joseph Moultrie's 1-yard plunge gave the Wolves a 6-0 lead and, later, Ryan Hood hooked up with Darelle Pressley on a 20-yard touchdown pass after Williams' second interception to make it 18-7. Craig said the Wolves switched base defenses from a four-man front to a 3-5 in the middle of the week to give their athletes more chances to make plays. Drake Campbell also had an interception for the Wolves. "It allows us to get athletes all over the field and run," Craig said. "I thought they bent some but didn't break a whole lot… I thought with all those skill receivers they've got our secondary did a great job." Timberland's other touchdown in the first half was a 1-yard run on a fourth-down play from Daniel Robinson. Pressley's 8-yard touchdown run on the first play of the fourth quarter made it 25-7. For Hanahan, Sam Denmark hauled in a 24-yard touchdown pass from Walt Fagan to make it 7-6 in the first quarter. But the Hawks didn't score again until Vontre Howard's 12-yard run with better than four minutes left. Hanahan hosts Bishop England Friday, while Timberland travels to Cross.

Singer-songwriter to bring 'Bright Side of Down' to Ann ArborWritten by Vicki L. Kroll | | email@example.com
When John Gorka's warm baritone sings about spring, the sun feels closer and the snow seems to melt.
Listen to "Really Spring" from his new disc, "Bright Side of Down": "If this were really spring and not just a thaw/ I'd get out my colored pencils and I'd set about to draw / Soon there would be flowers and soon there would be green/ My yellows and my blues to match the greenest green I've seen."
Or "Thirstier World": "Every spring is a victory when the winters are this long."
"They've said it's the coldest winter in 35 years, and I've been here about 18," Gorka said during a call from his Minnesota home. "But it's been in the 50s the past couple of days, which is an improvement."
Released March 4, "Bright Side of Down" finds the singer-songwriter in a familiar place — telling stories, reflecting on life, sharing his wit, playing with words.
"I knew fairly early on that I wanted to be a writer, but I didn't know music was going to be the way," Gorka said. "I was always struck by the power of words when I read fiction. I was just so impressed with how a good writer can tell a story; the way of telling a story means as much as the story itself."
Guitar in hand, he's been sharing stories since opening for fellow folky Nanci Griffith in 1984 at the Godfrey Daniels Coffee House in Bethlehem, Pa. She encouraged him to play the Kerrville Folk Festival; he won the new folk award that year
"For me, it often starts with that first line, which is kind of the key that opens the door to a song. But the songs can start in anyway; I just try to be open to any possible way a song can start. Sometimes it's with an image, sometimes it's with a lyrical phrase, other times it's something I find myself playing on the guitar," Gorka said.
"Often what I try to do is get out of the way of a song. I try to allow the song become what it wants to be. I think sometimes people get a writer's block [when] the song they want to write is not the song that's trying to come out. You have to pay attention to the song that's trying to surface instead of the song that you might want to bring into the world."
Gorka will play at 8 p.m. April 27 at the Ark in Ann Arbor. Antje Duvekot will open. Tickets are $20; doors open at 7:30 p.m.
"I don't go into a show with a set list. I have some idea of what I'll start off with, but then the audience often has ideas for songs that are better than the ones I thought of doing, so I try to be open to that," he said.

Google launched My Maps, a new feature in Google Maps that lets you mark some places on the map and annotate them. Essentially, it's an easy way to create a KML file from Google Maps (until now, the feature was available in Google Earth). To create a map:
* Select one or more places from the map.
* Draw lines and polygons to highlight paths and areas.
* Add descriptions by typing HTML code or using a rich text editor.
* More in this user guide.
Each map will have its own permalink (like this map of Googleplex) and can be exported as KML to see it in Google Earth. Google wants to create a big directory of maps, so if you decide to make your map public, anyone can find it in the search results. The alternative is to make it unlisted, which means the address won't be included in search results, but it will be accessible to anyone who knows it (much like in Picasa Web).
You can find maps created by other people if you search for a local business and click on "see user-created content" at the bottom of the search results. This acts as a search engine for KML files available on the web, so you'll find a lot of KML files from bbs.keyhole.com (Google Earth Community), where you could host your KMLs and get some feedback.
This new feature (available for a long time in Windows Live Maps or in some Google Maps mashups) is also a good way to share more than one place with a single link. You can add placemarks manually or from the search results.

A $10,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the persons responsible for a brutal attack on two South Carolina people on the riverwalk in Augusta on May 3, according to the Richmond County Sheriff's Office.
The Sheriff's Office has verified that the funds have been made available by a donor who wishes to remain anonymous.
The incident happened about 11 p.m. near the 700 block of Reynolds Street, police said.
Two people, 27-year-old Wesley Spires of Edgefield and 25-year-old Ashley Solesbee of North Augusta were sitting on a bench when they were approached by two unknown men who demanded money. The men then began striking the two victims in the head and face with a metal baseball bat or pipe.
Spires remains hospitalized with a fractured skull and bleeding to the brain, police said. Solesbee has been released.
The two men have been described as black males wearing all black clothing.
According to the Sheriff's Office, the reward has a few stipulations: the funds will be held by Phillip Scott Hibbard, PC; the funds are designated for the person who provides information leading to the arrest and conviction of the suspects; and the reward recipient may not be an employee of the Richmond County Sheriff's Office.
Additionally, if an arrest is made within 60 days, the reward will stay in trust via Hibbard until conviction, provided that conviction occurs within 24 months. If no conviction occurs within 24 months from the date of the arrest, the reward is null and void. If no arrest is made within 60 days, the reward is null and void.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Richmond County Sheriff's Office at 706-821-1080.

You're sitting at your doctors office and he (or she) asks you the big question, "Will you be bottle feeding or breastfeeding?" You say "Breast" because, "Breast is best, right?" but you don't know much about it. The doctor (or nurse) retracts and then comes back with a gift. You look down at this box, "A breastfeeding support kit — cool!" Then you begin to observe it. Enfamil? Aren't they a formula company? Why would they be supporting the very thing that could put them out of business? Good question.
They're not.
Breastfeeding Support Packs
Formula companies are deceiving you. They aren't in support of your breastfeeding — come on! This breastfeeding support pack makes just as much sense at receiving information on a nicotine-free life from major cigarette corporations.
What they are doing you is the bait and switch. "Oh how kind of Enfamil for giving me this stuff. They must REALLY care about me and my breast feeding. I trust them. And this free sample of formula? I hadn't planned on using it.. but I guess once wouldn't hurt. I mean, I have to sleep one time."
Do you see where I am going with this? They understand that the simple act of having it in one's possession (along with misinformation) will weaken the new mother enough to use their product; to see its temporary "ease", and switch from breast to bottle. (And believe me — as a breastfeeding Mom who used to bottle feed.. breastfeeding is SOOO much easier!) Yes it's harder than hell at first but if you push through it (and you will) it's just SO much easier all around.
When I had Carli in June of 2008, I didn't know much about breastfeeding. I knew very little people who breastfed so my support system lacked incredibly. I had no one around to keep me going when I was feeling overwhelmed or lost or insecure about my breastfeeding relationship. But you know who was there for me? Enfamil & Similac and their endless formula samples. (Gag)
Overly tired and drugged up from my c-section, I let my husband give her a bottle. There wasn't one single day in Carli's life where she wasn't supplemented with formula. Needless to say, we stopped breastfeeding by 2 months. Feeling endless guilt, I tried to re-lactate but found it incredibly hard and the formula samples kept coming! I vowed not to be a pawn in their marketing schemes with my next child. I would be well-informed and decline everything.
Katelyn has gone 2 months, so far, without a single taste of formula — and going strong. Boo ya, Enfamil/Similac et all.
Breastfeeding Support Lines
Abbot (aka Similac) has created a new breastfeeding support help line. It's another bait and switch tactic. Just imagine, a breastfeeding mother — overwhelmed and no support calls up this "support help line" because they are feeling insecure about their supply. Instead of calling a certified IBCLC, they call this Similac support help line — because it's a name they are familiar with so "it must be trustworthy" — right?
In fact, an IBCLC I know called them up, pretending to be a mother with very basic breastfeeding issues (an insecure with supply) and you know what they told her? They mixed basic breastfeeding support with marketing their product, "Well, you're going to want to get the baby to breast as much as possible — but you'll also need to supplement with our formula because it sounds like the baby is not getting enough. Some Mom's just can't breastfeed."
Are you SERIOUS?! Nice. REAL nice.
Do you know the actual percentage of mom's who CAN'T breastfeed is incredibly low — like, less than 1%? And most likely, if you're having breastfeeding difficulties, you're NOT that 1% no matter what a doctor may tell you. If you are having (what you feel) is supply issues, see a certified IBCLC. Then, see another. Join a support group of breastfeeding Moms. Get the facts, not the false information forked over by formula companies to urge you to switch to their products.(And yes, many doctors or hospitals are financially supplemented by these formula companies to recommend their use.) If you come across ANY doctor that says that without a doubt, formula is equally as good (if not better) than breastfeeding, find a new doctor. Find one quickly.
If after seeing MULTIPLE IBCLCs and participating religiously in support groups, you are still having issues — you may in fact be that 1% but most likely you will be diagnosed with supply issues for a specific reason BY an IBCLC. They are trained specifically to help, diagnose, and treat. In very rare occasions, formula may be your last resort. But let it be that — your last resort.
But back to the issue at hand — support help lines. Do you know that these "counselors" are not certified through any breastfeeding organization? They are NOT IBCLCs (although Nestle claims thier counselors are CLCs, to which I would report them for their malpractice). So just who are you getting your "expert" information from? What dignifies them as an "expert"? A day-long training from Enfamil? Pu-lease. IBCLCs train for YEARS to understand how our breasts work and how to support a healthy breastfeeding relationship. YEARS. It's not information you can learn in a day and no respectable, professional, IBCLC would ever work for a formula company. Case closed.
If they claim they are "certified", ask them their intentions as breastfeeding supporters working for the very organization that is recommending formula supplementation to a "client" they have never met or observed breastfeeding. Don't take advice from a counselor recommending formula without careful observation and documentation of your situation.
Free Samples
They are everywhere. In a normal world — free is good. Free is fabulous — especially when the product is expensive. But in a breastfeeding world, free is dangerous (unless of course you're receiving free stuff that is SUPPORTIVE of actual exclusive breastfeeding [whether by breastmilk in a bottle or actually to the breast.])
When I gave birth to Carli at Winnie Palmer Hospital in Orlando, FL — the formula samples were right there. Showing me their cute little "individual" sized bottles. Oh and I got a TON when I went to Prenatal Impressions in Orlando for her 3D Ultrasound. Then I come home after having the baby, and more samples in the mail. An actual large case of it! You almost feel wasteful for throwing it out — so you use it. Bad move.
This time around when I gave birth at Altamonte Hospital (I switched after my horrible experience with Winnie Palmer) — I received not a single sample of formula. Not a coupon, or anything. I had not ONE nurse tell me I needed to supplement, but only worked with me to make sure Katelyn got the best pre-milk (MY milk) possible. It was because of their support that I was on a good start and breastfeeding exclusively today.
Now — let's talk about the ultimate free sample nightmare, Nestle. Do you know what those morally-corrupt a-holes did? Don't worry, I didn't know until about a month ago and since then I have boycotted Nestle and their products.
They went to a third-world country (who, by the way , breastfeed) and handed out a vast array of free formula samples claiming that it was better than their breastmilk. These mothers, wanting the very best for their children and knowing very well that being in a third world country, they lacked in general, they eagerly accepted these hand outs.
Nestle gave them just enough formula to last them until their milk went dry and they were unable to breastfeed any longer. Now the issue starts, these families can NOT afford formula. So what they would end up doing is heavily diluting their formula with bad and/or tainted water so it was mostly water. In effect, their babies were now severely malnourished and/or died. Nestle did nothing to help. But .. helping was not their issue. They just wanted to push and sell their product.
To read more about the Nestle & bad marketing crisis, read the following web-articles:
- Why I Protest Nestle
- Have you ever boycotted anything?
- The Nestle Wars (or why I buy my chocolate chips from Trader Joes)
- Nestle Answers: Can a formula company really support breastfeeding?
- Breastfeeding.com: The Nestle Boycott
- Nestle Boycott: Wikipedia
Just to name a few..
Now if these formula companies are choosing to be so deceptive in their marketing plans to get you to buy their product, what else are they not telling us?

- Model is 5'9" and is wearing a US size S.
Twist Halter Peplum Silk Top 2 2
Bad fit I really wanted to like this top, but after attempting to try it on, I knew it was a no go. It fit oddly in the bust area, with gaps around the arm pits, and the bodice was so tight I had to struggle to get it on and off. It wouldn't even zip up, and I am a true size medium. Just a poor design overall. I do not recommend this top, probably why it is on sale. September 21, 2012
Love this top Great top for date night or the weekend. Dress up or down. August 15, 2012

How to properly clean your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch screen
The best way to clean dirt, grime, grease, and grit off all your iOS devices without damaging them or their oloephobic coatings
How should you clean your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch screen? Should you stick with a dry cleaning cloth or is it okay to use a cleaning solution? If so, what kind of solution is safest? From everyday usability, to applying screen protectors and stickers, to reducing the risk of scratches, keeping your iOS screen clean is something we get asked about a lot. And while it's not a DIY repair, it's every bit as important to know.
First off, if you own an iPhone 3GS or any iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch that came out after it, you're device has an oleophobic coating. This coating works to help prevent fingerprints and also makes it a lot easier to wipe them off using nothing but a dry cloth and in some instances, even a pant leg or inside of your shirt. Older devices don't have this coating and you may find you'll need to use a bit of water or cleaning spray in order to remove some substances and fingerprints.
If your device has an olephobic coating we don't recommend using any type of liquid cleaner on it as it can actually degrade the coating even quicker. Using a dry microfiber cloth or non-abrasive material will work just fine and should remove most of the oils from your fingers.
If you've gotten food or a sticky substance on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch that is resistant to just a dry cloth you can use a bit of water to get it off. Don't apply water directly to your device but moisten the corner of a microfiber cloth and use that. You should make sure you wring out the cloth completely so it is only damp. Also take care not to get any type of moisture in headphone jacks, dock connectors, speakers, or underneath the Home button. After the substance has come off, use the dry part of the cloth to finish wiping it down.
Oleophobic coatings do tend to wear off over time so if you've had your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch for over a year or so, you may start to notice that the screen isn't as easy to wipe down as it once was. At this point it's probably safe to use a non-abrasive cleaning liquid. Always use something that does not contain ammonia, alcohol, or bleach. In short, you should stay away from household cleaners, window cleaners, and aerosol sprays. Only use cleaners that are meant to be used on electronics.
Again, don't spray liquid directly on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch as you increase the likelihood of getting it inside the device. Spray the liquid onto a cleaning cloth and then continue to wipe down the device being sure to use a dry portion of the cloth afterwards to make sure there is no liquid left over.
Make sure you are checking labels on liquid screen and electronics spray cleaners to make sure they don't have any of the previously mentioned chemicals in them. If you want to stay on the safe side, the iMore accessory store also carries a lot of cleaners that are safe to use on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.

How to properly clean your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch screen
I've been using 70% or 90% isopropyl alcohol on computers and smartphones for years with no problems. I barely dampen the microfiber cloth, make sure the device is fully shut down, and gently wipe it off. It quickly evaporates (especially if you use too much and it drips inside or something), cuts through grease, and also kills bacteria.
All of these expensive sprays seem like a huge rip off. Also, if your monitor/tech wipes are super-fast evaporating, it's probably because they have alcohol anyway :)
The ammonia in Windex and the ethyl alcohol in things like Lysol have the potential to damage plastics, rubber, paint etc and shouldn't be used. I imagine these (and isopropyl alcohol) might damage the oleophobic coating but I use a screen protector anyway
What about this kit that Apple sells and recommends for all Apple products?http://store.apple.com/us/product/H3531LL/A
Oddly enough, I use Apple Juce.. it's great and smells like green Apples.
Ive actually found the rag that comes with life proof cases the best cleaning rag I've ever used. I don't know what it is about that thing or what it's actually made of but it works so well that in two swipes every mark is gone. I keep one in the car and one at the house and use it maybe two three times a day and I hardly even use my lifeproof case unless I'm at the pool or beach.
I always take my iPad into the shower and lather up a good lather with Irish spring. Keeps my iPad nice and fresh.
Hi, every mornign after I take a my shower, I use my damp towel to clean the screen. It works fine and never leaves streaks...
Try tea. Tea cut the grease.
How do you clean dirt out of the edges of the iPhone I around the home button??? HELP please!!!!
Not bad.
There are 2 ways to clean iPhone junk files to free up more space:
One way to maintain your privacy is to delete cache manually. But you might delete some important files by mistake.
Another way is using clean tools such as Mac go iPhone Cleaner:
You download it in your computer (it has mac version and pc version).
Second,start the cleaner Connect your iPhone to Mac and open this cleaner, just two simple clicks and you can start the clean now.
Then, deselect the files that you wanna keep and click on Clean your iPhone button to start cleaning.

Need some clarification from people who know so I came here. I currently have an H25-100 I want to upgrade to a DVR hopefully an HR24. I already have single wire installed and my router is right next to the TV. Directv is insisting they need to have an installer come out for the swap. I would rather them just send me the DVR and I'll swap it myself is their something I'm missing? Thanks
You have no way of knowing in advance if the Directv installer/subcontractor will have an HR24. You can do better on eBay than Solid Signal. I got my HR24 brand new for $169 off of eBay and got Direct to give me that amount in credits on my account including credit for the install. If they insist on sending an installer out there is nothing preventing you from installing it yourself before he gets there and just signing the paper that he was there. I have done that a couple of times as I don't like Directv's subcontractors messing with my setup.
Just curious though, if you are going for an HR24 why not go whole hog for an HR34? By playing CSR roulette you could get a fantastic deal on both the DVR and the install. I have both an H24 and HR24 I bought off of eBay and an HR34 I played CSR roulette for. Makes for a nice setup.

I'm sure Directv can't wait to get their hands on your unit.

The CR is giving me the HD DVR for $99 and waiving the DVR charge for six months. Not bad since I haven't even been with them for a year. I already have a TiVo premiere Q with RCN. The directv DVR is just for my HD sports.
Just shakes head, and you fell for that?

Posted 24 September 2012 - 07:50 PM
Wow I figured I'd call directv just to see what kind of price I could get for the HR34. Called twice today both times they told me $399!!!! They are crazy if they think people are gonna pay that kind of money for leased equipment. Considering RCN gave me a TiVo Quad for free. They better wake up smell the competition. I mean I love all the HD sports they offer but gimme a break!!!!!
They aren't crazy. People have paid that, others hit a deal,either through CSR roulette, or a new subscriber deal. But there are definitely those that paid $400. I'd rather do that than pay $1000 outright for an SD box like back in the day

Rated 4.7 out of 5Â by 10 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5Â by dhanielle gorgeous detail I am normally a size small (115 lbs, 5'5, 34d), but I ordered one of the last dark grey dresses in xs. It fits very nicely and isn't even too short, which was my fear. The v-neck is a tad low, but otherwise it is beautiful. Definitely a curve hugger. 2.5.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Jessica123445 Gorgeous!!!! Wow, Free People. You guys really got it right with this dress. The material is perfect...flattering, not at all see through or revealing (your figure is definitely revealed, just not any bra or panty lines), not too thin, not too thick and just the right amount of stretch. The length is perfect, I LOVE that it's a little longer than most FP dresses. I'm 5'9'' and the length looks the same on me as it does on the model in the pictures, so it may be a little longer on shorter girls. The details are gorgeous. The midsection is a little loose on me (for reference, my measurements are 36/26/36 and I ordered a small), but I love the dress so much that I don't even care. Thanks for making it!! 10.2.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by wren0507 Love it! I wore this dress the day it was delivered. I'm 5'4" 103lbs. I thought that the xs dress was still going to fit a bit loose bc of my small frame but it is snug in all the right places. I would wear this day or night. The fabric is soft but not too thin. 3.23.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by pursedressboots LOVE I just got this dress today and I love it! The detail is beautiful. I was worried the sequins would not look good but they are great. I am 5'3" and 130lbs, I got the extra small in the light color. It fits great but because of the light color it will show any small imperfections. Overall it is a great buy. If they had it in the dark color still, I would buy it in a second. 2.19.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by espeoh LOVE This dress is SO CUTE. As soon as it was in the store I knew I had to have it. I tried it on and to my disappointment the shoulders were just a tad bit strange... I couldn't quite pull the dress down without exposing my ta-ta's, but the shoulders sat up a little bit if I didn't. It was a little loose fitting on my very thin frame, but nothing major. The dress is a good length. Overall, nothing about this dress set me back enough to make me not buy it - it's on sale now and is about to be mine! <3 2.5.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by sandiva artsy, sexy, lovely! I loved this item so much when I saw it in person that I purchased it in both colors (Stone and Charcoal). Though the Charcoal color did look a little better with my blond hair. I went with a size S since I am a size 4-6. It fit just right. Slender fit but not skin tight. It looks fabulous as a dress but I will be getting more wear from this item as a tunic over a pair of leggings. The beading on this dress is stunning! It makes it very unique and you can tell the piece is not a cheap item! Very well made. 1.14.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Cressid heartstoppingly beautiful This dress is absolutely gorgeous! I bought the grey color, size small, and I couldn't be more happy with my purchase. The fabric is thick and lovely, the embroidery is beautiful, and the cut is extremely flattering. I have yet to wear this dress without receiving multiple compliments on it. Worth every penny! 12.10.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by sophiesgrrl Adorable This dress is an absolute gorgeous piece! I bought it in the blue color. The embroidery details complete & add uniqueness 2 this dress. I'm 5'2 108 pounds. The dress is a little longer than I wanted, but that doesn't take away from the dress! The pictures don't do this dress justice. So it's a perfect addition to any wardrobe have for fall. 10.24.2012

Altvater: $67 million up for grabs in the FedEx Cup playoffsWritten by Fred Altvater | | email@example.com
The first FedEx Cup was won by you know who (Tiger Woods) in 2007. No one has ever won back-to-back FedEx Cup titles, and he is the only player to win it more than once.
Vijay Singh won it in 2008 and Tiger won his second FedEx Cup in 2009 right before his unfortunate incident with a fire hydrant. Jim Furyk made a putt in the rain on the last hole for his win in 2010. In 2011, Bill Haas had to make an up-and-down from the lake to beat Luke Donald and earn the $10 million.
The FedEx Cup was designed by the PGA Tour to award consistent play throughout the year. It also helps to assure that valuable PGA Tour talent keeps playing at home rather than roaming the world searching for guaranteed money.
PGA Tour players qualify for the FedEx Cup playoffs by earning points at every PGA Tour-sanctioned event throughout the year. With three wins in 2012, Woods is leading the rankings heading into the playoffs. Rory McIlroy, Jason Dufner, Zach Johnson and Bubba Watson have also had excellent years and are close behind.
The four events that make up the FedEx Cup series are the Barclays, played at Bethpage Park in New York; the Deutsche Bank at TPC Boston; the BMW Championship, which will be played at Crooked Stick near Indianapolis this year; and the Tour Championship, played at East Lake Country Club in Atlanta.
The top 125 players on the FedEx Cup rankings list qualify for the Barclays. The field will be cut to the top 100 for the Deutsche Bank the following week, and only 70 will be eligible to play in the BMW Championship.
Each event in the playoffs has a total purse of $8 million with approximately $1.4 million going to each winner. All of the players who make the playoffs will earn a paycheck but there will be 36-hole cuts at the first two events.
The playoff series takes a week off between the BMW and the Tour Championship. Only the top 30 players will make it into the field for the Tour Championship and play for the FedEx Cup and the $10 million.
The $10 million winner's check is paid from the $35 million FedEx bonus pool. Once the final FedEx Cup rankings are established after the Tour Championship, every player ranked Nos. 1-150 will receive a bonus check. For example second place will receive $3 million, $2 million for third, and it continues to decrease with Nos. 126-150 receiving $32,000.
More than $30 million in prize money for the four events plus another $35 million in bonus money — there is no recession on the PGA Tour.
The FedEx Cup winner also receives a five-year exemption on the PGA Tour.
Next year the FedEx Cup will determine the top 125 players who will earn PGA Tour cards for 2014. Any players outside the top 125 will have a second chance to earn a PGA Tour card via the Fall Series. The Fall Series events will start the 2014 season and award FedEx Cup points.
Players not earning tour cards by the end of 2013 will be forced to play the Web.com Tour to earn their cards for 2015. There will be no PGA Tour Q-School after 2012.
There is a lot to play for in the FedEx Cup playoffs. Professionals play the game for money and there is a lot of cash on the line over the next five weeks.

Gmail Mobile Application, Now Available for Google Apps
The mobile Gmail application for Google Apps that used to only work if you had a Blackberry is now available for all mobile phones. Just go to m.google.com/a on your mobile phone and download "Mail by Google". The application looks exactly like the recently released Gmail Mobile 1.5, except that it has a blue icon and supports Google Apps accounts. You'll also notice that you can login with standard Gmail accounts.
It's unclear why Google didn't add support for Google Apps in the standard Gmail application (available at gmail.com/app), but it may have something to do with Google's branding and the Gmail name.

Cabins in two categories are the first to go whenever a cruise itinerary goes on sale: the most inexpensive stateroom -- be it an inside cabin or porthole view -- and the top-of-the-line suite. It may surprise you that the priciest accommodations are snapped up first, but consider this: A suite offers additional space and enticing perks that aren't available to all cruisers.
The suites aboard today's newest vessels were purpose-built with the "wow" factor in mind, but even older ships offer a variety of options from multiroom suites (sometimes also referred to as family suites) to mini-suites and junior suites. The thing to remember is that these unique accommodations are sometimes sold at fares that aren't substantially higher than those charged for standard cabins.
Here are some things to keep in mind:
Even the most mass-market ships will have suites with elaborate features.
The most popular suite is the mini-suite. But don't let the cruise line's marketing moniker fool you -- these are little more than slightly extended versions of standard balcony cabins and typically do not come with extra services or even significantly more elaborate amenities. They're still generally a good value for the price if space matters.
One popular aspect of suite living, beyond lush furnishings, is the extra services most ships offer. You should expect concierge service, priority embarkation and disembarkation, and assistance when making reservations for alternative restaurants, spas and sold-out shore excursions. Butler service is offered with the most luxe, and they'll handle everything from dry-cleaning and unpacking to daily delivery of hors d'oeuvres and making reservations.
There may be more variety of suites than ever before, but there are still those that absolutely stand out from the competition. Here we offer our favorites among the industry's most drop-dead gorgeous, pampering and elegant accommodations at sea. All come with butler or concierge service and other perquisites like laundry; catered cocktail parties; course-by-course dining room meals served en suite; priority for embarkation, alternative restaurants and shore excursions; and fresh fruit and flowers.
We've focused mostly on mainstream ships -- you won't find the same kind of elaborate features aboard adventure cruisers, river ships or barges. One of our selections is gigantic, the size of three average homes in the United States. Some are quite petite but feature such lovely furnishings and service extras that size doesn't necessarily matter. (Please note: Fares vary by itinerary and date. Prices listed are approximate and are subject to change.)
Celebrity's Solstice-Class Ships (Eclipse, Equinox, Reflection, Silhouette, Solstice)
Best Suites: Penthouse Suites
Because? The 398-square-foot verandahs -- complete with hip patio furniture and outdoor whirlpools -- are themselves larger than many traditional staterooms! And, of course, each inviting verandah is attached to a 1,291-square-foot penthouse. Each well-designed space in these Eclipse, Equinox, Silhouette, Solstice and Reflection suites includes a living room with plush furniture, hardwood floors and a throw rug, 52-inch LCD TV with surround sound, and a baby grand piano; a separate dining room that accommodates eight; and a master bedroom with a king-size bed and adjoining marble bath with double vanities, a humongous shower for two with dual Hansgrohe showerheads and separate whirlpool tub. Two of these suites -- perfect for a romantic getaway -- can be found on each of Celebrity Cruises' Solstice-class ships, midship, right across from the elevators and near the library on the Penthouse Deck. (And for even more of a doozy of a suite, try Reflection's 1,636-square-foot Reflection Suite, a two-bedroom affair with a cantilevered sea-view bathroom, living and dining areas, and a tub on the 194-square-foot balcony.)
Plan to Pay: Average cost per person, per night, is $1,060 for a Caribbean voyage.
Celebrity Silhouette Cruise Fares:
Oceania Cruises' Marina and Riviera
Best Suites: Owner's Suites
Because? There are three Owner's Suites onboard each of Oceania Cruises' two newest ships, Marina and Riviera, and are among the most superb at sea. Size counts, for sure, and these measure 2,000 square feet apiece. Using furnishings from Ralph Lauren Home, each features a large living and dining room, bedroom with king-sized bed, his and hers walk-in closets, a music room complete with an ebony grand piano, and even a media room with a professional entertainment system. There's one whirlpool tub in the bathroom and another on the veranda (the latter has a flat-screen television outdoors). What we also love? Their location. Each of the suites spans the beam of the ship, facing aft, looking over the wake. Perks for Owner's Suite residents include 24-hour butler service and course-by-course in-suite meal delivery from any onboard restaurant. The biggest downside of a cruise in an Oceania Owner's Suite is that you'll feel so pampered and cosseted indoors you might well be tempted to give ports of call a miss to stay onboard.
Plan to Pay: Average cost per person, per night, is $1,395 for a Mediterranean voyage and $1,170 for a Caribbean cruise. (Note: The price includes air.)
Marina Cruise Fares:
Royal Caribbean's Oasis of the Seas and Allure of the Seas
Best Suites: Royal Loft Suites
Because? Playboys (and girls) will feel right at home in these lush Royal Loft Suites situated on Decks 17 and 18. At 1,599 square feet (and that's not counting the massive 874-square-foot balcony with a whirlpool and dining area that wraps around this fabulous suite), these two-story Oasis of the Seas and Allure of the Seas dwellings accommodate up to six passengers and are larger than many Los Angeles apartments. The suite is stunning with its two-story-high wall of windows, which affords panoramic views. The master bedroom is upstairs in the loft with a glass wall partition and blackout curtains. An adjoining bathroom features a tub, shower, dual sinks and a bidet. A second bath with a shower is found on the main level. It's easy to picture James Bond reposed on the living room sofa, nursing a martini.
Plan to Pay: Approximately $795 per person, per night, (based on a Caribbean cruise).
Oasis of the Seas Cruise Fares:
Cunard's Queen Mary 2
Best Suites: The Balmoral and Sandringham Duplexes
Because? These two-story grandiose Queen Mary 2 suites each have a curved, sweeping staircase to the bedrooms on the second floor, two marble baths with whirlpool tub and separate shower, a full guest bath, private exercise equipment and 2,249 square feet of living space. The terrace of each of these suites is unique in that it is visible from the public decks below (such as an aft pool area), so plan to "be seen" -- that can be a plus for some and a big minus for others. All of the amenities of the Queens Grill are yours to enjoy, including the dining room, a special lounge and a dedicated sunning deck.
Plan to Pay: Average cost per person, per night, is $4,170.
Queen Mary 2 Cruise Fares:
Holland America's Eurodam, Noordam, Nieuw Amsterdam, Oosterdam, Westerdam and Zuiderdam
Best Suites: Penthouse Veranda Suites
Because? At more than 1,300 square feet, these midship suites on Eurodam, Noordam, Nieuw Amsterdam, Oosterdam, Westerdam and Zuiderdam are certainly expansive, but what's more, they are styled in a contemporary manner with bright colors, elegant furnishings, original artwork and a sense of whimsy. Each zig-zag teak-lined balcony has its own hot tub and an inset banquette for alfresco lounging or dining. The suite also has a butler's pantry with fridge and microwave, and a dining table for eight. The enormous marble-clad bathroom features a full-sized whirlpool tub and separate shower stall.
Plan to Pay: Average cost per person, per night, is $2,900 for a Caribbean voyage.
Nieuw Amsterdam Cruise Fares:
MSC Cruises' Divina, Fantasia and Splendida
Best Suites: Yacht Club Royal Suites
Because? The Royal Suites -- each featuring a separate living room with balcony and a bedroom that curves around the front of the ship, with floor-to-ceiling windows instead of a balcony -- are spacious and cozy at the same time. The suites themselves measure 216 square feet, and the balconies are 177 square feet. Fun bells and whistles range from Wii on the living room television to fantastic butler service. Although this is the nicest of the cabins that qualify for Yacht Club status, just being in the Yacht Club on MSC Divina, MSC Fantasia and MSC Splendida is a big plus. You have a private club with full bar (no charge) and light, but definitely adventurous, food throughout the day. Yacht Club guests also have access to a private pool area, a grill and another bar.
Plan to Pay: Average cost per person, per night, varies by itinerary, but we've been quoted $535 to $630 per night for a Mediterranean cruise.
MSC Splendida Cruise Fares:
Norwegian Dawn, Norwegian Star, Norwegian Jewel, Norwegian Pearl, Norwegian Gem and Norwegian Jade
Best Suites: Garden Villas
Because? These are the mac-daddies of all the suites at sea, coming in at a whopping 3,355 to 6,694 square feet (size varies by ship). Features include three bedrooms, a private sunning deck, two private steam rooms and a six-person hot tub. Add a butler and a concierge team and stunning views from the window walls that surround the suite from its perch atop the ship, and you have a "wow" factor that's beyond compare. You can opt for total privacy, or take advantage of the fact that these suites are located on big ships (Norwegian Dawn, Norwegian Star, Norwegian Jewel, Norwegian Pearl, Norwegian Gem and Norwegian Jade) with all of the fun and excitement that goes along with a cruise vacation.
Plan to Pay: Average cost per person, per night, is $714 for a Caribbean voyage.
Norwegian Pearl Cruise Fares:
P&O's Adonia
Best Suites: Penthouse Suites
Because? Fans of P&O Cruises are in love with this British line's smallest ship: 710-passenger Adonia. The adults-only vessel blends the great traditions of cruising with modern-day luxuries. There are six aft Penthouse Suites, two each on Decks A, B and C, and each is decorated to evoke old-world charm with hints of royal blue and gold, dark wood furniture, and a paneled ceiling. The footprint is 930 square feet, including the spacious balcony that has both lounge furniture and a table and chairs. From the king-size bed, you'll look directly out to sea through floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors. A separate living and dining area connects to the bedroom, as does the master bath with full-size whirlpool bath and shower. (There's also a guest powder room off the living room.) Adonia's Penthouse Suite is definitely for those with discerning tastes who'd like to pretend to be king or queen for the duration of the cruise.
Plan to Pay: Approximately £323 per person, per night (based on a December Mediterranean cruise).
Princess Cruises' Sapphire, Diamond and Caribbean Princess
Best Suites: Grand Suites
Because? These three Princess Cruises ships (Sapphire Princess, Diamond Princess and Caribbean Princess) each have an exclusive hideout -- just one -- at the aft, with a gigantic verandah and elegant furnishings. This 1,329-square-foot, one-bedroom suite (1,279 square feet on Caribbean Princess) combines modern technology with old-world luxury: lush brocades, sumptuous bedding, a corner whirlpool tub and separate multijet shower, dining table inside for six and outside for four, a wet bar, two TVs and a computer for those who just can't leave business behind for a week. Oddly, Princess did not build Grand Suites on its newer ships.
Plan to Pay: Average cost per person, per night, is $572.
Sapphire Princess Cruise Fares:
Regent Seven Seas Cruises' Seven Seas Voyager
Best Suite: The Grand Suite
Because? Regent Seven Seas Cruises' Seven Seas Voyager boasts four of these spectacular suites with luxurious contemporary decor. Dark teak cabinetry, cream-colored walls and furnishings, walk-in closets and guest baths add to the ambience of this exclusive hideaway. What makes the suite special, though, is the solarium off the bedroom, with floor-to-ceiling windows and a soaking tub looking out over the sea. It's lush and romantic and uber-elegant. The suite itself is 753 square feet, and the large balcony comes in at 123 square feet.
Plan to Pay: Average price is $916 per person, per night.
Seven Seas Voyager Cruise Fares:
Sea Cloud
Best Suites: Owner's Suites: Lady Marjorie's and Sir Edward's
Because? Suites on this vintage sailing vessel -- at 410 square feet and 366 square feet, respectively -- aren't big by modern standards, but oh my! More like suites on, say, a royal yacht than a cruise ship, these accommodations were originally designed in 1931 by owner Marjorie Meriwether Post (who owned the ship with husband E.F. Hutton). While Sea Cloud, a now-German-owned ship, has undergone many refurbishments, these fabulous suites were merely restored and remain almost identical to the way they were decorated in the olden days, with the addition of some modern conveniences. Marjorie's suite is more feminine and plush, with white walls and gold gilt wainscoting, a draped bed and a large, elegant carrera marble bath with two portholes. Sir Edward's suite is clubby, with knotty pine paneled walls, dark furniture and an equally large bath. Both rooms have decorative fireplaces and just ooze romance.
Plan to Pay: Cost averages $1,290 per person, per night, in either of these suites.
Sea Cloud Cruise Fares:
SeaDream Yacht Club's SeaDream I and II
Best Suite: Owner's Suite
Because? As SeaDream likes to say, "This is your own private villa at sea." The 447-square-foot Owner's Suites on SeaDream I and SeaDream II aren't the flashiest of accommodations, but the best-trained crew at sea -- they seem clairvoyant at times -- masterfully tend to passengers, and that's why they made our list of heavy-hitters. Located on Deck 3, the suite is appointed in blue and beige with a decidedly "yacht club" flair. There's a private master bedroom/bathroom suite -- complete with a soaking tub with an ocean view -- and a living room with sofa and chairs, plus a separate dining area that accommodates four. This is the spot on the yacht for a pre-dinner cocktail party or a romantic meal for two, served course by course.
Plan to Pay: Approximately $1,120 per person, per night, (based on a Caribbean cruise).
Sea Dream I Cruise Fares:
Silversea Cruises' Silver Spirit
Best Suites: Owner's Suites
Because? Walk into one of the two Owner's Suites aboard Silversea Cruises' Silver Spirit, and you'll likely hear soft music playing (compliments of the Bang & Olufsen stereo system in the living room) and see sheer curtains drifting lazily in the breeze by the glass doors opening onto the 190-square-foot teak verandah. At 1,292 square feet, including the balcony, each of these suites is sophisticated, sexy and spacious. (A two-bedroom option -- 1,668 square feet -- is also available by booking the adjoining Vista Suite.) Tucked amidships on Deck 8, these stylish apartments at sea -- designed with sleek blond wood, wide striped wallpaper and modern furniture -- make you feel like you've stepped into a swanky penthouse in London or Copenhagen. Your butler will make you feel right at home as you settle into the living room with subtle recessed lighting and a flat-screen TV, enjoy a meal in the separate dining room or get a good night's sleep in the master bedroom with a sinfully comfortable queen-size bed with a down duvet and selection of nine types of pillows. The master bathroom has marble throughout with a double vanity, shower and separate full-size whirlpool tub. (There's also a powder room for guests.)
Plan to Pay: Average cost per person, per night, for a Caribbean voyage is $1,300.

This is not my home.
THAT, down there, is my home.
This piece of eye-melting loveliness is my fantasy home. It is a place where children do not have dirty knees or shout at their mommy (who is, incidentally, as beautiful as the home). It is a place with no neighbours, no pesky little doggies who leave shitty footprints all over the pristine white floor. It is a place where the sun shines all day and there is no washing line because the washing does itself. There are no builders, for the fairies build the beautiful home whilst you sleep, without a sound. There are no skanky men poking their noses in your Skip asking for scrap metal, and there is no bird poo on your car.
The reality however, is that I currently live in a place that looks like THIS……
We actually bought this place with our own money, too. We CHOSE to live here. We both need to ease off the caffeine a bit, I think.
We are mid-renovation. This is a Victorian property. Late 19th Century. Not uncommon in these parts – we live in an old Spa town with much history and some lovely British architecture. What has become apparent during the renovations, however, is that Victorians had Cowboy Builders too. Floors held up by fresh air, lintels being supported by the doors that they're meant to be supporting (eh?) etc.etc.
I have given up dusting. I simply sit down at the PC each morning and carve a window through the foggy haze with my fingers, then start typing. It's tricky when I get to the edges of the page, but hey, that's what spell-check is for, right?
On a serious note, we have knocked down the whole of the rear of the house which used to look like this…..
……and set about rebuilding it into a large, open-plan family kitchen area (aka Doggy Prison).
This will bring us one step closer to the vision we have for this place. Or at least one step closer to not murdering each other and burying the bones under the debris.
We have no kitchen. Some days I have cooked for my children on my knees in a microwave in our hallway. Microwave cookery is not my speciality, although it's amazing what you can do with a jacket potato!
It is a tortuous journey of noise, dirt, cramped conditions and stress. Cups of tea, endless men in and out of the house, ruined carpets, ruined walls, ruined doors and of course, jacket potatoes. Worst of all, having to take one's washing for a walk in order to peg it out on a washing line.
Currently we look a bit like this……..
There is little doubt that we will all remember this period of our family life. As house moves go, this has been a doozy. Life is, on the other hand, a series of recollections, and time makes them fonder. This little adventure is being tracked in chronological order on my lifeline at SaveEveryStep alongside the rest of my lifelong journey. The homes in which we live represent special times, people and places, and deserve to be commemorated as part of our life stories.
I suspect that this home holds not only much historic adventure (more on that if I ever get time or help to delve into its past) but much adventure yet to come. Whilst it is in our custody, my marvellous family will make our own memories and capture our stories with pride.

Donald Cerrone vs. K.J. Noons added to May's UFC 160 card in Las Vegas
A lightweight slugfest is the latest fight to be added to the UFC's Memorial Day weekend card.
Donald Cerrone (19-5 MMA, 6-2 UFC) will meet K.J. Noons (11-6 MMA, 0-0 SF) at UFC 160 in May. FUEL TV's "UFC Tonight" brought word of the fight booking on Tuesday night.
UFC 160 takes place May 25 at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas with a main card on pay-per-view following prelims on FX and Facebook. Earlier this month, the UFC announced a main event heavyweight title fight between Cain Velasquez and Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva for the card, as well as a heavyweight bout between former champ Junior dos Santos and former top contender and former Strikeforce champ Alistair Overeem.
Cerrone is coming off a loss this past month to former WEC lightweight champion Anthony Pettis at UFC on FOX 6 in Chicago. Pettis landed a body kick in the first round and followed it up with a couple of punches on the ground to get the stoppage. It was just Cerrone's second loss in his past 10 fights and the first time he has been stopped by knockout or TKO.
Cerrone, who twice fought for the WEC title, won his first four UFC fights in 2011 before a unanimous decision loss to Nate Diaz at UFC 141 snapped a six-fight streak. Then he picked up wins over Jeremy Stephens and a knockout of Melvin Guillard in 2012 before the loss to Pettis. In his eight UFC fights, "Cowboy," a Jackson/Winkeljohn MMA student, has six fight-night bonus awards.
Noons will make his UFC debut after a seven-fight run in Strikeforce that saw him go 3-4. The former EliteXC lightweight champ fought Nick Diaz for the welterweight title in a rematch from their EliteXC days in his third fight for Strikeforce, but lost a unanimous decision as Diaz avenged the loss from nearly three years earlier.
