ELMIRA, NY – The Soaring Eagles from Elmira College flew over the Hawks from Hilbert March 24 claiming a 3-0 victory and ending Hilbert's season at 1-24. The host institution finished the game hitting .322 with 42 kills and 10 total team blocks as they continue on in the United Volleyball Conference play-offs at Nazareth College March 26. In a match where both teams played only seven players, Hilbert didn't have enough firepower at the net hitting only .079 with 28 kills.
Leading the Hawks was a duo from Stow, OH. Senior setter RJ Sykora (Stow Munroe Falls) had 24 assists and freshman outside hitter Adam Weaver (Archbishop Hoban) had 10 kills. Finishing his college career as Hilbert's All-Time kill leader, senior Dan Wolfe (Rochester, NY/Irondequoit) pushed his lead up with 8 more kills and 9 digs.
Elmira's sensational freshman setter, Michael Vellutato passes for 38 assists and had 5 total blocks to pair with Ryan Gelenitis' 17 kills in 25 attempts.
Hilbert College, located in suburban Hamburg, N.Y., south of Buffalo, is a private four-year college founded in 1957 in the Catholic Franciscan tradition. With nearly 1,100 students, Hilbert is a dynamic Western New York college that offers career-focused majors, including one of the top criminal justice programs in the region, and more than 50 minors and concentrations. The college's engaging, student-centered campus community offers numerous leadership, internship, and service learning opportunities from which students launch successful careers while making positive changes in their communities. The Hilbert Blueprint promotes a well-rounded student experience over four years – starting with the Foundations Seminar in the freshman year, followed by Sophomore Service, Junior Symposium, and culminating with the Senior Capstone.

Earl Ray Tomblin
Governor of West Virginia
Earlier this week a group of West Virginia state employees saved a man's life.
A five-man-crew from the Division of Highways noticed a truck drifting erratically on the highway. When they looked closer, they noticed the driver was slumped over the steering wheel. This Hancock County DOH crew quickly boarded the moving truck and stopped it before anyone else got hurt. After stopping busy highway traffic, together they moved the unresponsive driver to a grassy area. Fortunately, one employee is also an EMT and he helped the driver before an ambulance arrived. These five men risked their lives to help another. And they did so without hesitation.
I'm pleased to say that driver is recovering because of the quick thinking of our DOH crew. This is a dramatic story of heroism and of service-it's one such story of the outstanding work our state employees provide to each and every West Virginian. There are many other similar, untold public service stories. These events not only resonate with the constituent who received the help-but with employee who delivered the much needed assistance.
This year, four state employees marked 50 years of service to the State of West Virginia. In that time, I can only imagine the number of West Virginians they've helped with quality, compassionate service. I recently had the opportunity to recognize them along with others who have more than 25 years of service. I reminded them that public service is a calling to work for the greater good-to put others before oneself. I asked them to remember that as they go about their daily work, behind every deadline and every project is a West Virginia family, child or senior citizen.
As Governor, I'm truly honored to work alongside a wide array of talented and dedicated individuals who strive every day to make West Virginia the best it can be. I'm grateful for the quick thinking and life-saving actions of this DOH crew and for all our state employees who work every day to better the lives of their fellow West Virginians.

Round Glass Apothecary Tank 6 6
Works great! Looks great! I have had zero issues with this beverage dispenser! It is durable, elegant, and simple. It makes parties much easier. Highly recommend! January 5, 2015
Lovely item, works great I purchased this at a store and have been very pleased with it. It holds a lot of liquid and looks very lovely. A nice addition to my garden party. May 28, 2013
Product is just the thing for parties! Was very happy with this Glass Apothecary drink dispenser. Can use it year round...for any season. February 1, 2013
Like the tank, but the spigot broke Worked great, except for the base being a little slippery on our granite counter tops, but that was an easy diy fix with rubber pads. After 5 months of use though, the plastic spigot brought at the handle. Good thing we were turning it off when it did otherwise the whole tank would have emptied onto our counter top. July 30, 2014
Very flimzy. Do not buy it. The base is so thin it broke after the first use. The water dispenser itself also seems very flimsy. It just very thin glass. Cheap product. Does not worth it's money. Although the idea of an elegant dispenser is good. December 1, 2014
DO NOT ORDER THIS PRODUCT!!! As soon as I received this product, I opened the box noticed on the box it says to hand tighten the knob before using, which I did. I then began to fill it up with water and left it sitting for 10 minutes. There was water all over my counter!! IT LEAKS!! DOES NOT HOLD WATER!! What a waste of money!!! January 9, 2013

Gl everyone
Apple phone greater than all other phones. I love apple phone. but could not buy it because not enough money :(
It is 2013, the android invasion hit the earth. The Machines took control of everything. The GoogleNet killed almost all the resistance. The Blackbery's Battalion fell in the Waterloo battle. The Redmond's company sent their soldiers to suicide attack. We are the last stand before the Android dominance. Because the Iphone 5S is what the earth deserve, but not the one it needs righ now. So they keep hunting it, because it can take it. Because it is not our hero. It's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark (silver) Iphone 5S.
Then, please give it to me.

Apple is my drug of choice... And iMore is my pusher...
I have been waiting for the iPhone 5s forever! My parents never let me get an upgrade over my 4S and now I am a student I just can't afford to upgrade it myself :(
P.S Have been a long time lurker on iMore and have been reading for ages. Love your intelligent take on everything so much I hardly read other blogs! ;)

The reason I like apple is because you can do a lot of stuff on it and it very tight I likemore than any other brand that reason why iI like it

i love apple because i love their phones
I love imore because i just do! their my number 1 source for all my apple news :) i love browsing the forums and i love every single one of the people on this website :) you make getting the latest apple news so simple!
and apple. gosh, i have had a sick obsession with apple since the release of the first iphone. i can't explain my love for apple. it just is...
I know we're supposed to temper expectations given that this will likely be a "S" revision, and not so much a brand spanking new design, but a couple of features have me intrigued, like the fingerprint sensor. Gimmick, or OH MY GOD HOW DID I EVER LIVE WITHOUT IT?
I love iMore. I love Apple. I really love free iPhones. I mean lots! Thanks
I love Apple, but Imore than love IMORE
I need a 5S so bad! love apple and I check iMore like 7 times a day! you guys are great!!!
I love apple but I love iMore more!
I love Apple because all of it is just great, reaching perfection on every new phone, ipod, desktop, ultrabook and whatever they just want to do, I mean, who can look those white apples and dont fall in love with them!? xD and of course I love imore and mobile nations in general because you guys and girls are all day and night working to bring us the news on the best way possible and always on time, I'll love to win that iPhone 5s :D please pick me
I love apple gear I've had an iPod touch up to the 4th gen never got the 5cause I didn't have the money but when I saw this event coming I'm hoping to see a new iPod touch but I just love how amazing all apple gear is!! It works amazing and keeps people around the world connected to people and family and this imore really helps people stay up to date on everything apple and it is a very easy website to use!
I would be lost without imore.com and if it weren't for Apple, I'd probably still be using a Blackberry Pearl... I know, pretty sad! Thanks for all you do!
I love the consistency of apple. My phone always works, unlike the robot.. I'm not pointing any fingers at android.
I love coming to iMore to check out their deal of the day. Always excited to see what case is for sale today.
Apple always comes out with some of the most refine products on the market and imore is quite honestly the best source for news about anything Apple.
I love Apple hardware. Anyone who knows me knows that I've generally thought Apple products were overpriced and overly-simplified. Realistically, the restrictions make them easier for non-techies to use. After all, not everyone spends their days working on software and immersed in the latest technologies. For people who want a computer with no hassle, who want to use it primarily for fun, its a great experience. I always felt that Apple products were not the best fit for me, though. I knew I could get devices with better specs for cheaper and I really do like the recent Linux OS's and I like Imore because it keeps me up to date on everything apple!
Iphone is not a phone its a part of my life
iLove iMore, iLove iPhone :)
I seriously woke up 5 times throughout the night due to excitement to see what Tim Cook & company finally make official today.
My first iphone was the 3Gs and I fell in love with it.. Have got every iteration since then because they always come out with something that just wows me.. please, I'd like to save some money this go around :)
What's not to love about a great website covering great products?
Well, we have a MacBook, an iPad mini and my wife and I have iPhones... Much love to Apple! Regarding iMore, I'm surprised that I haven't worn a hole in my screen hitting refresh to read the articles! Good luck to all!
I love Apple because everything they make just works so well and seamlessly with each other.
And I love iMore because y'all let me know everything I need to know about Apple.
I love the iPhone so much that I stood in line for both the 3gs and 4s and went into a mini depression when I had to go to an android. I currently still have an an android and I STILL get on iMore.com more than any other mobile website, including AndroidCentral.com. iMore keeps me update with the new products and best perks of the Apple products which allows me to share what I see with Apple product owners. I LOVE APPLE! I LOVE IMORE!!
Adding my name to the draw! Love iMore!
Apple is the most interesting company around right now and iMore provides some great insight. Keep up the great work, iMore!
I been with iMore since they were the iPhone blog/tipb...
I been following and watching the live streams and met great new friends (especially jadestarr)
And because of this site. I have made a whole new community or apple fanatics that I can go to for advice.
I love iMore!
I hope I can win an iPhone 5S
I browse your site several times a day...Got to get my IMore fix.. Love it
There's no better place than iMore to get information on the best products...Apple!
Let's hope I can win the new phone!
Been an avid iPhone addict since 2007 with the original 8GB iPhone, upgraded immediately when the 16GB iPhone was released and had every iPhone since. iMore has always been my go-to website for all things Apple since it was The iPhone Blog then TiPb and now iMore. You guys rock! iMore For Life! =D
With four Apple devices purchased for myself in the past several years, and several for family members, you could say that I am now a diehard Apple user. The iMore podcasts are on my weekly "must listen to" list. Love 'em !
Apple is just a reliable company. My wife is on her 6th android phone and it always has bugs. Apple really puts time into making a great product. iMore is the best site to gather all information that I need to know and your mobile app works flawlessly! You guys are great!

I love iMore, best way to stay up to date on anything Apple related! Thanks for having this drawing and opportunity!
I love Apple this much > ..... < and iMore this much > ..... < and $500 gift certificates this much > ............... < !!!
Seriously though, Apple because of design, build quality, and a buttery smooth OS. iMore for a good mix of fact, rumor, app reviews (which most other Apple sites don't seem to have), and the forums.
Honestly, I am really hoping I win this gift certificate so I can get my wife a new iPhone. Her phone was stolen and unfortunately we did not have the money to use my upgrade on an iPhone 5; instead we had to use the upgrade on an iPhone 4, 8 GB, which is crap plain and simple. She literally has no storage for anything and I know it's frustrating for her. She's always given me her upgrade and she's always taken the older model phone. I think the time is now for her to get the new upgrade phone. Unfortunately funds are tight so winning it is the only way. Please pick me so I can give my wife the phone she absolutely deserves!
Nothing is equal to Apple and their products. Me and the wife love Apple. I read imore.com everyday to get the latest tidbits about Apple products and they are the most accurate out there. I would love the gift certificate to put toward the new iPhone. Thank you.
Love is such a strong word. I appreciate Apple for what they do and that is to make things mainstream and tell people what they need to have in their life. I like their products, too.
As for iMore, I'm love the coverage given to the competition and how it could possibly affect Apple. It keeps things balanced unlike other pro-Apple sites.
imore is the best site for all apple nd apple is godlike :D
Well, this does seem easy.
So first of, iMore is, IMHO, the best Apple blog out there, so that's one love ;)
as for Apple, no other company out there creates with such perfection, two love
OMG!! I am so excited I can hardly contain myself. I love Apple products and have been patiently waiting to add another awesome, sexy, and sleek piece of hardware to my collection. I love iMore for always keeping me up to date on everything Apple.
I just love cuddling this apple...
I'm very touchie about it too, I can't do without my apple.
I love apple so much I use 3 (sometimes 4) of their devices when im in the bathroom! Why you ask? Because i am listening to my favorite iMore podcasts, catching up on Twitter, playing games, and taking names! Love me some Apple and iMore!
I love my apple products so much! I enjoy the quality. The usability. And most of all. The design. I can't wait to see what the new announcements are today.
iMore is my go-to source for all things iPhone/iPad. Your coverage is great and I know I can find the latest news here. I'd love to be able to get my wife a new phone so that she doesn't have to keep lending hers to our two-year old. She's terrified that he's going to drop it!
I <3 iMore and everything Apple.
Sweeeeeet imore and apple!!!
I love Apple because their products are designed well and perform great. I love iMore because you keep me up to date on all things Apple. :-)
I admit I strayed to Android. I came back because it works. Plus Verizon can't screw it up. Apple has no equal.
True story: all of my apple products were destroyed in an apartment fire last month. I'm hoping I'm due for a little good luck.
iMore and Apple are, of course, highly awesome. I'd love to win the gift card. : )
Been waiting for today for quite awhile. iOS 7 look amazing and I'm eligible for an iPhone upgrade. What could be better?
The iMore staff does a great job at keeping us informed. Keep up the good work!
I love apple for their design and attitude towards customer experience! I love you guys for your up to date blogs and news feed. I check it out every day!
Whoever said that Apple was a beautiful, walled garden is absolutely right, and I thank them for it. After toying with Android for a short stint over a year ago, and a lot of Microsoft products prior to 2007, I actually feel more productive and creative with Apple products as a whole, as I'm not feeling like a hacker who has to continue cobbling a bunch of things to work together in order for me to work properly.
That being said, iMore has been a great go-to place for all Apple-related news, and their store has been fun to shop in every so often, especially when they provide reviews on featured products. And, of course, they're Canadian. What's not to love about those people?
Thanks again for yet another contest, and keep up the great work.
I have a mac, an ipad, a macbook, ipod, appletv... Of course i love apple!!!!! And i need that iphone because now i lost my job and cant buy it :(
I have never had a iphone before. I don't have a android phone. Real talk i have a old school phone. I would like to win to see how the iphone is. I have thought about getting one a lot. I would love to have a chance to win to see how the iphone is.
I never had a iphone either i dont even have a phone im trying to get one nut they coss to much but im trying to get one for chrismastas
Apple is future, plain and simple. iMore gives great insight into Apple's doings, therefore, we got an insight into future! Thanks for everything, great job!
I love Apple because they care about their customers and all their products have a certain quality which no other company has. I also love the exclusive apps for iPads and iPhones/Pods. iMore I love because it is the number one go to place for all the latest Apple related news and your articles are written so exceptionally well. Thank you!
Today is the day!!!!

I wake up every morning just to see what Apple did while I was asleep! And, iMore tells me!
I'm just an apple-holic. Love all the info imore gives.

I REALLY LOVE APPLE. they are the best. i love iphones. AND IMORE IS just amazing!
I love how all things Apple are sleek, cool, and "just work". I live iMore for expanding my knowledge and introducing me to new things. Love ya both!

Apple always gives me the best and most reliable products out there! If I need a device to get me through a daily routine without problems and hassles, I can always rely on my iPhone. AND, iMore is my one stop shop for all of the latest apple news! I definitely couldn't get through the day without all of their tweets of the latest, most important Apple news!
I love apple bc they make some of the best products in the world. They may not make the most speced out products but they work for me.
Man, I have been following you guys for years via your website and podcast, even before I had an iPhone. I love that you team up with the other mobile nations people to crosstalk. This website was one of the reasons I moved to Apple to begin with. As far as my iPhone goes? I love that it is easy to work with across platforms and most people hate hearing this, but I love the vast amount of apps available and compatibility with other products (can't wait for iPhone in the Car). Crossing my fingers that I win.
I love Apple more than kittens and I love iMore more than doughnuts.
Why? Because.
I want to win one so that my hubby can't rub it in my face that he got the newest Iphone and I have to wait a year for my contract to be ready for renewal :)
Used to hate Apple so much. But my perception changed when I got an iPad mini. Always fought on FB on how Android is superior to iOS. All I heard was that you need to own an iOS device to experience its awesomeness. Guess I was wrong all along. Happy to be so. :) Have never owned an iPhone and would love to own one. iMore is the place to go for all things related to Apple and is the only place where I get to know about all the upcoming apps and features. Keep up the good work, guys.
Full disclosure: Dumped my Android devices long ago and I love Windows Phone. But I seriously hope I own an iPhone someday :)
Apple and iMore rocks my socks!
I live in Australia but learning about your Mobile Carriers on the imore podcasts and also an apple fanboy
My username is indie-android, but I could be swayed away by swag ... a free iPhone 5S? Sure!
I was a hard convert being a windows/ blackberry user - once i saw what my daughter could do on her iphone, and i got my own - i was sold - daughter has an older macbook, wife has an older ipad and we all have used iphones (4-4s). I have followed imore daily for over a year and i have learned lots - do not know what i would do without it! Would be a real privilege to get a new apple product.
Lets hope!
I love Apple enough to use almost all their products (hardware and software) and I love iMore enough to check it right after I turn off my alarm in the morning. I've been reading your articles since before my first iPhone and a long time before you changed the name from tiPb. When I started writing this comment only 6 other comments were posted (that's to give you an idea about how often I check for new articles). Goodjob and please keep up the good work!
Let's go iMore! Give me that new iPhone smell.
iLove Apple, iLove my iPhone and Macbook Pro and would LOVE a new iPhone 5whateveritscalled!!!!
iLove iMore TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love iMore much more than I love Apple. Maybe that's because my iPhone volume button broke this week.
I would love the new iPhone!
We already know Apple is great, and I love my MacBook, iPad and iPhone! iMore is the blog I go to when I want to read sensible commentary on Apple products! Now, can I have a new iPhone?????
How much I love Apple and iMore? Words can't describe! Apple always makes one of the best devices (obviously, they manage to get a recognition for it) and not to mention After Sale product support - the best in the world. iMore has been very helpful to me in many ways. You guys are always on alert and I just love everything about iMore. It is my go-to website for all things Apple.
Apple keeps life simple, efficient, enjoyable and elegant
Thank you for making this contest.
I love Apple because of the simplicity, ease of use, ecosystem, and the security. This is make Apple the most trusted company for me.
Imore are the sources for me to look or find about Apple product, review, tutorial, news and of course the contest! ;)
And again, thanks for this contest!

Hi! I switched to Apple and iPhone two years ago, from another Mobile Nation ( RIP beloved webOS ). The site that's now known as iMore came along with that switch. I continue to read iMore because of the balanced and thought-provoking stories. Keep it up, y'all! New hardware, ahoy!

Apple and iMore?
What more could any human want?
Oh I can't say how much I love Apple, because it's too much. Apple is an incredible company and I love all of their products. Every year I watch the keynotes and every year again I'm fascinated about this incredible concern from Cupertino. I will be the new iPhone, but because of my money is always scarce, I would be so happy to receive your gift certificate for the new iPhone.
I think, Apple is the future of our generation.
And, of course, I love iMore. Every day I read the important Apple news in a simple way: on iMore.com. At this time, it would be hard to find a better english blog about Apple & Co. I'm glad that iMore.com exists! ;-)
Greetings, Alex! :-)
I love apple because they make the greatest products in the world, i live my iphone 5, would love to get that 5s

So excited Can't wait
It goes without saying that I've "always" loved Apple and the attention to detail they put into their products. I'm not a fanboy, when they get something wrong I call them out on it and that's why I love iMore cause you guys do the same! But right now I'm loving you even more than normal (who knew that was possible?) cause you giving us this awesome chance! :D
I have just discovered imore and its what I have been looking for. All my tech updates in one place with a focus on Apple, all in an app too. We have so many apple devices in our house now and with a contract that's just ended I am looking forward to the 5s announcement!!

a brilliant phone - enough said
I love Apple because of it's build quality and focus on user experience. I also love iMore for it's professional approach to reporting tech news, without violating NDAs or using sensacionalistic articles to get clicks.
I always get excited when Apple releases new products. I'll be watching iMore to see what is released and the hits/misses of the new iPhone, etc... Only thing I don't like ~ knowing that I'll be out hundreds of dollars on a new iPhone and cases... :(
Imore. The single place for all iPhone news in my house.
Apple for keeping me and wife connected through iMessage and our calendars. Trying to add my daughter on board with this contest
I love Apple because everything just works. I know that is an old slogan of theirs, but it still stands true. I love iMore because they keep me up to date on every single thing I could possibly want to know about the electronics I buy. Win/Win
Apple makes technology fit your lifestyle. And imore presents news in a fresh way with great perspective.

Each year apple always put a good terms and create innovative phone that would blow everyone's mind. It's easy to use, user friendly and lots to be surprised about on each features. Thats why more people are getting iPhones nowadays, Ive noticed alot of people are more excited about the new iPhone than any other phones guess why? Because of it's sleek, sossy, absolutely companion than any other phone. I love iPhone because of it's straight forward features that definitely hooked me up! I've been a follower of iMore as far as I could remember just like iPhone it's a good companion on any scoop about Apple. I couldn't be late on every news about Apple and iPhone. There so much to learn about every blogs that I wouldn't want to missed! Omg, please pick me! :)
Ohhh Yeahhhhh Baby!!! I'm almost upset with myself because of how much I love apple. I feel like there are better products out there but they don't make me feel good like apple does. iMore is the only website that feels that void for apple so in a way I'm addicted to you both. Feels good to get that off my chest!
I love Apple because of it's sexy design and simple, usable interface. I love iMore because I get the latest news about Apple!
I love apple and iMore equally. There—I said it.
Not as touchy-feely as some of the other comments but...
I dig Apple's deliberate, generally well-planned, and dependable approach to their products. It may not sound sexy but it means I had somewhere worthwhile for me and my family to go when my previously beloved platform embraced the long sleep. Apple provides a solid product and ecosystem that lets us have fun and get work done, reliably and predictably.
iMore provides the iNfo & iNsight that allows me to approach the many decisions and commitments involved in this industry with a measure of confidence and the relevant considerations. Without that, we would be faced with many impressive options but no clue about their distinguishing traits. Infinite choice + no insight = no choice at all. In true geek fashion, iMore helps me balance out that equation, such that it benefits me and those I love.
I may not have an Apple or an iMore logo shaved into my chest hair, but I am an appreciative and, I hope, appropriately respectful fan. Thanks.
I love apple because they just work, and I love imore because they provide great apple related articles that are not only informative, but also provide an interesting read.
I love Apple because of their rich ecosystem. I love how all of my Apple devices can connect. Their rich app library, on both iOS and OS X, is also a plus. There's an app for just about everything, something that's hard to find on other platforms.
nice contest

Google Desktop has been released back in 2004, when Windows didn't include a powerful desktop search engine. Since then, Google added support for gadgets and launched versions for Mac and Linux. Now that Windows Vista and Windows 7 include many of the features available in Google Desktop, Google's software is no longer important.
Here are some signs which show that the software will soon be discontinued:
1. One of the built-in gadgets is a small Twitter app that has been last updated in September 2009. Unfortunately for Google, Twitter changed the authentication API and the gadget can no longer be used.
2. Google Desktop's last significant update was in July 2009.
3. The most recent post from Google Desktop's blog is from July 2009.
4. Google Desktop removed two important features in January: search across computers and shared gadgets. "As of January 20th, 2010, the Search Across Computers and Shared Gadget settings feature will no longer be available. These specific requests to Google Desktop servers will no longer establish a connection."
5. The integration with Google search doesn't work if you enable Google Instant.
6. Google Desktop for Mac is no longer available and it's been replaced by Quick Search Box.
7. Google Desktop gadgets no longer work in iGoogle.
8. Google Desktop doesn't index web history in Google Chrome and Firefox 3.6.
9. Google focuses on migrating your data online, so a desktop search tool won't be very useful.
10. The software is slow, buggy and difficult to maintain.

Long Island's best pizza: 10 pies worth the drive
Yes, there are dozens, perhaps hundreds, of terrific local pizzerias in Nassau and Suffolk counties. I am not concerning myself with them. Instead, I am focusing on what I'll call Long Island's destination pies: great artisanal pizzas made with small-batch dough, fresh mozzarella (not "pizza cheese"), carefully chosen toppings. Here are my rankings for Long Island's top 10 pizzas.
10. St. Rocco's Bakery's breakfast pizza(Credit: Newsday / Erica Marcus)
St. Rocco's Bakery in Glen Cove is a Nassau destination for rustic breads and refined cakes and pastries, but the bakery also has a wood-fired oven just for making pizza. The sparely topped Margherita ($12) is a classic, but my favorite is the breakfast pizza ($14). When it is about half baked, the pizzaiolo pulls it out of the oven and cracks two eggs onto it, and puts it back so the crust starts to blister, the cheese becomes molten and the eggs are perfectly sunny-side up.
9. Red Tomato's quattro stagioni(Credit: Newsday / Erica Marcus)
This spiffy, stylish Red Tomato was opened a couple of years ago in East Norwich by the Messina family (of Dortoni and La Bonne Boulangerie bakery fame), along with partner Chuck Berg. The flour and tomatoes are imported from Italy and a standout pie is the Quattro Stagioni (four seasons, $16), in which each quadrant is graced with its own topping: ham, olives, mushrooms, artichokes.
8. San Marzano's caprino(Credit: Newsday / Erica Marcus)
I'm usually dismayed by non-Italian elements on my pizza but was won over by the caprino pie ($14) at San Marzano in Merrick. Drawing on French and California traditions, this surprisingly harmonious assemblage brings together fontina, goat cheese, caramelized onions, shiitake and button mushrooms, garlic and truffle oil. What really puts it over the top is the excellent crust, tender but toothsome and full of good, wheaty flavor.
7. Centro Cucina's proscuitto(Credit: Newsday / Erica Marcus)
This modest little Greenvale trattoria does pretty much everything well, and Centro Cucina's pizza is no exception. The prosciutto pie ($16), topped with an abundance of prosciutto, arugula, cherry tomatoes, fresh mozzarella and shaved Parmesan, is my pick, although a customer favorite is the white pie (not on the menu), laden with mozzarella, ricotta and truffle oil.
6. Grimaldi's Margherita(Credit: Newsday / Erica Marcus)
When Frank Ciolli bought Grimaldi's coal-fired pizzeria in Brooklyn in 2001, a dynasty was born. Ciolli, his son Russell and daughter-in-law Jennifer opened Grimaldi's in Garden City in 2004. As befits its parentage, the Margherita pizza ($14, $16) here is classic New York, almost lavishly topped with chopped tomato and fresh mozzarella that would sink a lesser crust. But Grimaldi's rises to the challenge.
5. The Pie's Margherita(Credit: John Griffin)
Here's a crust with real integrity, puffy but substantial and not too tender. You can see from the big air holes that the dough is treated with respect. There are some complicated pies on the menu at Port Jefferson's The Pie -- including Buffalo and barbecue chicken(?!) -- but you'd be advised to stick to the simplest, the textbook Margherita ($8, $14, $16).
4. Grana's rosa bianca(Credit: Newsday / Erica Marcus)
In the summer of 2010, the North Fork finally got the artisanal, wood-fired pizzeria it deserved. It's the custom out here to use as many local ingredients as possible, and Grana in Jamesport does not disappoint. The supernal rosa bianca ($11) is made with thinly sliced local potatoes, local red onions and rosemary (when they're in season) and Parmesan cheese. A locavore-pizzavore dream.
3. Piccolo's baci(Credit: Barbara Alper)
The back wall of this otherwise unassuming-looking deli is dominated by a wood-burning oven producing superb pizza. The baci ($8.95, $16.95) at Piccolo's in New Hyde Park is a genius amalgam of smoked mozzarella, pancetta and thinly sliced red onions. No frills here: Grab a soda from the case and a seat at one of the small tables.
2. Pizzetteria Brunetti's vongole bianca(Credit: Newsday / Erica Marcus)
Westhampton's Pizzetteria Brunetti probably makes the most authentic Neapolitan-style pie on LI: puffy around the edges, thin in the center and not overly crisp. The simplest toppings tend to be the best, and the absolute pinnacle is the vongole bianca (white clam, $19) topped with nothing more than fresh-shucked local clams, garlic butter and herbs. This is the very definition of a pizza worth the drive. In traffic, even.
1. Salvatore's Coal Oven Pizzeria's sausage(Credit: Newsday / Erica Marcus)
If I were limited to one LI pizza for the rest of my life, it would be the sausage pie ($17.25, $19.25) at 1. Salvatore's, in Port Washington, owned by Fred Lacagnina. The crust is a dream, crisp but pliant, the topping is a balanced meld of fresh, milky mozzarella and chunky chopped tomatoes punctuated with blobs of crumbled sausage. Grains, dairy, vegetables, meat. Is there a more delicious balanced meal? Like all great pies, this one starts with its crust.
Salvatore's makes its own mozzarella and uses canned plum tomatoes from California along with grated Pecorino Romano, dried oregano, fresh basil and extra-virgin olive oil. The sausage is bought in bulk (not in casings) so it can be judiciously strewn over the pie. Then, the pizza goes into Salvatore's coal-fired oven, where the temperature hovers around 900 degrees.

STATE: N.C.'s lower unemployment rate spurs optimism locally
The unemployment rate in North Carolina remained above average last month but is dropping faster than the national rate, according to government data released Tuesday — prompting one local official to predict that the downward trend would also hold true for Lee County.
In fact, North Carolina's unemployment rate dropped more than any other state's from December 2012 to December 2013. In just the last two months of 2013, the state's unemployment rate dropped from 7.4 to 6.9 percent; the national rate dropped from 7.0 to 6.7 percent in that same period.
The state declined to extend federal unemployment benefits last summer and also passed a slew of tax reforms; Gov. Pat McCrory sent out a statement just after Tuesday's unemployment data was released crediting those and other policies with the drop in unemployment.
"The trend of more people getting back to work in North Carolina is great news for our state," McCrory said. "We continue to see that our pro-growth and pro-jobs policies enacted over the last year are having a positive impact and getting people into jobs."
Policy debates aside, the mathematics of North Carolina's decrease in unemployment — which in December mirrored a trend which has lasted several months at the local, state and national levels — show two factors at play: About 19,000 people got jobs last month, and about 21,000 unemployed people simply gave up on trying to find a job and dropped out of the workforce altogether.
Bob Joyce, president of the Sanford Area Chamber of Commerce, said that even though the local numbers aren't available yet, he thinks Lee County's unemployment rate will decrease yet again, following the same formula as the state.
"Things just get better and better, but they're going in small steps," he said, adding that many of those dropping out of the workforce are Baby Boomers who retire early instead of trying to start a new job or even a new career.
"That's a phenomenon that's going to continue for another 10 years," Joyce said.
And while McCrory only made an indirect allusion to the state's denial of federal unemployment benefits leading to a lower unemployment rate, U.S. Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-NC) gave full credit to the controversial decision.
"(The state's unemployment drop) comes after North Carolina declined to extend federal unemployment benefits for nearly 70,000 people in July," she said in a written statement. "In the three months following this decision, civilian employment in our state rose by 39,400. ... Governor Pat McCrory and the Republican-led General Assembly have instituted important economic reforms that have led to the successes we are witnessing today."
That assertion has some academic backing; a study recently published by a European university found that the state has experienced a steady rise in overall employment ever since the benefits were cut. However, the study's author stressed that correlation does not always equal causation.
"Only a few months of data are available, and sample sizes available in most data sets are too small to yield reliable predictions of month-to-month changes in variables such as employment, unemployment, etc," Marcus Hagedorn, of the University of Oslo, wrote. "So the evidence provided (in the study) should be interpreted with extreme caution."
In 2013, North Carolina's private sector added 64,900 jobs while the state government cut 400 jobs, according to state data. Within the private sector, most large industries grew. Professional and business services led the way, adding more than 22,000 jobs in 2013, followed by the trade, transportation and utilities industry, which added nearly 19,000 jobs. The only major industry to shrink was construction, which lost 3,700 jobs.
Joyce said the addition of 64,500 jobs is good for the state as a whole, but the report contains mixed news for areas like Lee County. The industries adding the most jobs are primarily based in urban areas, he said, so not much of that growth trickles down to suburban and rural areas.
"For mainstreet merchants, the economy is still tough because we don't have as many people earning paychecks as we did," he said. "So I think that says a lot as to why this recovery, in some cases, doesn't feel like a recovery."
Yet for larger businesses, he said, the recovery does appear to be a little more real.
"When you talk to the manufacturers in our community, things are good," Joyce said. "... I've talked to folks at Coty, at Moen, at Arden, at Caterpillar, at Magneti Marelli, and they're adding people."

Both the Bar and the pictures thread were locked and moved to the reported posts subforum. What's happening to them now, I couldn't say. Mom and Mxy are much more in the know than me. /noobmod
What I look like without a hat.
All I can say is if this continues, and something happens to The Hottest Chicks thread, I'm going to rain down fire and brimstone, scorching the very Earth we walk upon. Destroying everything in my wake.
Only the ones that have over 1000 pages are the ones stressing the server; don't worry.
See if you can work out which two people in Tarvu's post are related for non-existent brownie points.
It was messing up this morning. Time to start over!
On bodybuilding.com they usually just lock and let them float into oblivion but also have the 1000 pages rule. They don't get deleted as long as they're under that mark to my knowledge. It was pretty routine over there.
Also Flula Borg like a boss:
I'm also going to guess we should retrieve files and reference locally??? Probably not a good idea in the long run?
15 posts in and N7 has already made me feel like an inferior human being.

At my last OB appointment, I weighed 7 pounds less than the appointment from 3 weeks prior. That's a big loss, especially for the 2nd trimester. However, since I've been diagnosed chronic hypertensive with this pregnancy, I've switched to a low salt diet. I'm wondering if that's the reason why the sudden and very large loss.
Anybody know about how much water weight you'd expect to lose in going from a "standard" unhealthy salt level diet (frequent fast food, etc) to a "within DRV" (2300 mg/day) salt level diet? I'm trying to figure out if this is a mostly phantom issue, or if I'm not gaining enough. The baby was right on for growth at the ultrasound, so he's fine, but I don't want to waste away if I can avoid it!

The average worker today stays at each of his or her jobs for 4.4 years, according to the most recent available data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, but the expected tenure of the workforce's youngest employees is about half that.
Ninety-one percent of Millennials (born between 1977-1997) expect to stay in a job for less than three years, according to the Future Workplace "Multiple Generations @ Work" survey of 1,189 employees and 150 managers. That means they would have 15 – 20 jobs over the course of their working lives!
So what would all this job-hopping do for young workers' careers? For applicants, job instability on a resume could come at the cost of the dream job. For years, experts have warned that recruiters screen out chronic job-hoppers, instead seeking prospective employees who seem to offer longevity.
Talent acquisition managers and heads of Human Resources make a valid case for their wariness of resumes filled with 1-2-year stints. They question such applicants' motivation, skill level, engagement on the-job and ability to get along with other colleagues.
These hiring managers worry they'll become the next victims of these applicant's hit-and-run jobholding. For companies, losing an employee after a year means wasting precious time and resources on training & development, only to lose the employee before that investment pays off. Plus, many recruiters may assume the employee didn't have time to learn much at a one-year job.
The Upside of Job Hopping
But for newly minted college graduates, job-hopping can speed career advancement. According to a paper out of the St. Olaf's Sociology Department entitled "Hiring, Promotion, and Progress: Millennials' Expectations in the Workplace," changing jobs and getting a promotion in the process allows Gen Y employees to avoid the "dues paying" that can trap workers in a painfully slow ascent up the corporate ladder.
Job hopping can also lead to greater job fulfillment, which is more important to Gen Y workers than it was to any previous generation: A 2012 survey by Net Impact found that 88 percent of workers considered "positive culture" important or essential to their dream job, and 86 percent said the same for work they found "interesting." Job-hopping helps workers reach both of these goals, because it means trying out a variety of roles and workplaces while learning new skills along the way.
And economic instability has erased, especially for younger workers, the stigma that has accompanied leaving a job early. That's because strategic hopping been all but necessary for as long as they can remember. Workers today know they could be laid off at any time – after all, they saw it happen to their parents – so they plan defensively and essentially consider themselves "free agents.
If that freedom seems an undue privilege, think again. The downside to the freedom they enjoy is financial insecurity worse than any other generation in the past half-century. That's a sufficient price to pay.
So while Baby Boomers started working with an eye on gaining stability, raising a family, and "settling down," today's young workers take none of that for granted. Instead, as shown by Net Impact's survey, they are more concerned than their predecessors with finding happiness and fulfillment in their work lives
Indeed, since humans have been proven to be terrible at predicting what will make us happy (as shown by Harvard happiness guru Daniel Gilbert), it's crucial that we find it through trial-and-error.

As I've said before in this space, I love the New York City subway system. It's quick, mostly reliable-barring repairs-and an entertainment venue unto itself.
The best entertainment is free. The people-watching, for example, is spectacular on my line: every age, race, culture, religion, profession, persuasion, taste in couture and skin art, and behavioral quirk you could imagine is represented on the Q.
There are the posters, a commuter's eye view into the city's psyche: lawyers for your pain, Dr. Zizmore for your zits, bed sacs for your bedbug protection, ESL classes, and a campaign by Delta Airlines, encouraging you to See the World in a Different Way, that features slightly smeary, badly-skewed and too-dark photographs of world capitals.
There's the MTA's own art: renderings of the train as a flying fish, the mosaic hats in that station in the twenties that, when people stand in front of them, give the illusion of being worn. And that very cool piece of "moving" art by Bill Brand, exclusive to the Q and B, just after Dekalb station: it's an optical illusion with animated yarn that knots and unwinds and rockets that launch themselves, all brought to life because you see them through a zoetrope formed by a succession of openings into an old now-unused subway station. (You can see it here: http://www.mta.info/mta/aft/permanentart/permart.html?agency=NYCT&line=Q&station=7&artist=2.)
Some of the entertainment seeks payment. The slightly-off-key mariachi guitarists; singers; the guy selling Rubic's Cubes, who dazzles his audience by speed-solving the device. The kids who do a tumbling routine that marries break-dancing with gymnastics while the train is moving-that's actually gotten my dollar, not just because they're good, but because they're so incredibly brave, turning somersaults on a subway floor. Myself, I wouldn't put ANY part of my body not protected by at least a half-inch of leather or rubber on a subway floor.
The subway also has its beggars, in spite of all the official MTA signs railing against them. Sad women reeking of alcohol, who tell you about living on the street and needing a meal. Shaggy men who insist they can't get a job, even though they're two, three, six months clean and sober. Children selling candy bars for spare cash.
They are not entertaining.
I find it annoying to be approached by beggars on the subway. I suppose that's partly because it's so blatantly illegal. But it's also because solicitation in a closed moving car feels like being publicly shamed into shelling out money before a captive audience. I give change to beggars on the streets, but I don't give money on the subway.
Nor do many others. Most Brooklynites ignore them, and they wish everybody a good—or, often, "blessed"—day and move along to the next car.
Whatever their shtick or personal tragedy, I have never found solicitors-be they beggars, salesmen or entertainers-threatening.
Until yesterday.
The man was thirty-something, pale and wiry. He paced the car, intense black eyes crawling from face to face, and told us us that he had just gotten out of the state penitentiary after serving seven years for Armed Robbery. He couldn't find a job, but he'd learned his lesson, yes he had, and with God's help, he planned to stay on the right side of the law.
All he needed was money from us.
He would show us his prison papers, if we wanted to see them. He had them in his pocket.
He moved deliberately from person to person, confronting each of us individually, asking none-too-humbly for a contribution to his new, straight life.
I'm not easily intimidated. Even when I got my iPhone stolen-you can read about it on my Amazon.com blog by going to my page (http://susanoneill.us) and clicking the "Blog" link at the bottom-I chased the thief up the stairs, for what little it was worth.
But this guy…
The car was completely silent. The threat beneath his words, a 500-pound, very possibly armed gorilla, stalked after him on his slow slouch up and down the aisle.
Nobody gave him money. It was a car full of Brooklynites, after all; Brooklynites will not be fazed.
But when he left, the very train seemed to let out a breath of relief.

German Sheila Graf has been released, according to a report from the German site GroundandPound.de
The UFC has released Germany's No. 1 fighter, Sheila Gaff (10-6-1), from her contract. This news comes less than two weeks after her second defeat in the world's biggest MMA organization.
In early March Gaff signed a four-fight contract with the UFC in the bantamweight class, following a three-fight win stream at flyweight.
The 23-year-old from Offenbach debuted on 27 April at UFC 159, losing to Sara McMann at 4:06 minutes of the first round via TKO. The Olympic silver medalist McMann repeatedly took Gaff to the mat, and worked ground and pound from there. At UFC 163 on 3 August, Gaff got back in the world famous Octagon, but unfortunately, again without success, losing to the Brazilian Amanda Nunes at 2:08 minutes, also by TKO.
After the two defeats in the heavily occupied bantamweight class Gaff must now make a fresh start elsewhere.
"Disappointments and defeats belong to every fighter in this career, but I will go on," said Gaff. "Most of all I am sorry that I could not show my fans what I can really do. In the last two weeks the love and uplifting words from many of my fans have helped. Thanks also for the support of sponsors MMA Spirit, Geva and Olimp."
How exactly it will now go on with Gaff - a move to Invicta FC, back to flyweight or even an appearance in Germany - is still unclear.

Hi! My name is Lisa, I'm 28, married and live in Illinois. I lost my first baby, a boy, in September 2003 due to severe preeclampsia. I was at 22 wks and I was approaching seizures and possibly a stroke. I was told I had to make a choice.[V] I will carry guilt for that the rest of my life. The doctors told me the baby was already showing signs of trauma at that point. I don't really understand why this happened to me. Hubby and I would like to try again but I'm so so scared. I've been told I have a 60-65% chance of developing it again. I don't know if I'm doing the right thing by trying again but I feel I should atleast give it one more chance. I've read a little on here about what my chances are. I'd love to hear some success stories if anyone has any...It would sure bring my hopes up a little.

I thought I needed two virtual walls.

Comments about iRobot Scooba® Virtual Wall®:
I struggled to put down virtual walls to contain my Scooby since I have a kitchen island for it to work around. But guess what? If I set a virtual on one side the signal goes through the island and extends to the opposite wall. No need to buy another virtual wall. And Roomba's virtual wall does not work with Scooby.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Love my invisible wall
By Hate to Clean
from Dallas, TX
Couldn't use my Scooba without the Virtual Wall. Our house is very open and without the Virtual Wall, the scooba would wander around aimlessly and not get any one room clean. I just simply place the Virtual Wall to project across a section of the house to keep the scooba in one confined area until that area is clean. Then I can move the scooba to another area and place the Virtual Wall where needed there. You do not see a light across the room, so it took a few times before I figured out the correct angle to place it, but it works every time. And I've never replaced the battery after three years.

Alan Pardew's side narrowly avoided relegation last term after a disappointing campaign, although 2011/12 saw them claim an impressive fifth-place finish.
French duo Loic Remy and Olivier Kemen are the only new arrivals at St James' Park so far this summer, but Ben Arfa believes that the Magpies can push for a European spot.
"Our objective is to finish in the top 10 and I hope we can finish top five," he told The Sun.
"That is going to be tough but I'm confident. The Manchester City game has gone and now we have to turn out attention to West Ham on Saturday.
"I will be doing everything for the team to maybe repeat what we did two years ago.
"We will be stronger than last year. There's confidence in the squad. We think we can do something good this season."
