When it comes to MMA, some retirements last longer than others.
Randy Couture's lasted a little more than two years.
Matthew Riddle's was about three weeks.
It wasn't even a month ago that Riddle announced on Twitter that he was calling it a career, even before he could have his first fight for Bellator MMA. The former UFC fighter then told MMAjunkie.com he was "so fed up with the people that run this sport" that he didn't want anything to do with it.
But Riddle has changed his tune. Telling MMAjunkie.com exclusively that his abrupt exit form the sport was more the result of "a hissy fit" than anything else, Riddle is back and he'll make his Bellator debut on Nov. 22 at Bellator 109, in his home state of Pennsylvania, no less.
Riddle initially announced his retirement on Sept. 10. He cracked a rib and had to pull out of his planned Season 9 welterweight tournament fight against Luis Melo, and when Bellator couldn't guarantee him another fight later in the season when he was healthy, well, Riddle took his ball and went home. Not having a fight meant not having money coming in, and with a wife and three kids to support, that wasn't going to work for him, he said."It's water under the bridge, and we're ready to move forward to greener pastures," Riddle told MMAjunkie.com on Thursday. "They just want me to fight forward and do work for them, and they're willing to help me in any way that they can. And you can't ask for much more from a company. At the end of the day, they treated me right and I'm happy."
It's been an interesting stretch for Riddle, to say the least. The veteran of Season 7 of "The Ultimate Fighter" started his career 5-1 in the UFC before back-to-back losses to Sean Pierson and Lance Benoist."Honestly, I was pissed," he said. "So I was like, 'If I can't fight, I'm going to retire.' I basically threw a hissy fit and retired. (But Bellator) called me up and said, 'Bro, we didn't realize your situation.' They gave me an advance, they gave me money and the fight in the November, and they've already got me scheduled for the tournament in January or February.
"So they're doing everything in their power to help me out. Unfortunately, I kind of hopped off the handle right off the bat. I had a cracked rib, I hadn't fought in six months, and I'm broke. But they took care of me and hooked me up and I couldn't be happier."
But then he went on a solid four-fight run a run that only gets credit for two wins thanks to a pair of positive tests for marijuana metabolites.
He tapped out Chris Clements at UFC 149 for a $65,000 "Submission of the Night" win in July 2012, but that was flipped to a no-contest after his first positive test. And in February, he beat Che Mills in a split decision in London. But once again, he tested positive. That time, it cost him more than a win. It cost him his job with the UFC.
Riddle is a licensed medical marijuana user in Nevada, where he currently lives. After his first suspension for pot, Riddle said he planned to continue to use, but would stop soon enough before fights to avoid a positive test. Against Mills, that apparently wasn't the case when he tested positive a second time.
Riddle caught on quickly outside the UFC, signing a deal with Legacy Fighting Championship. But before he could take a fight with the Texas-based promotion, Bellator purchased his contract.
He was expected to fight in the current welterweight tournament, but the cracked rib forced him out of his fight against Melo at Bellator 100 this past month, and when Bellator wouldn't get him a fight before the end of the calendar year, according to Riddle, he retired so he could make money to pay the bills.
Riddle said "odd jobs" have been bringing some money in since his announcement, and he was prepared to keep earning that way if he stayed retired. But that's not what he wanted.
While Bellator doesn't have an opponent yet for Riddle for the Nov. 22 show, Riddle said he's signed the bout agreement to be on the card. And as a bonus, the fight takes place at Sands Casino Event Center in Bethlehem in Riddle's home state of Pennsylvania. He's fought in his home state just once, a decision win over Dan Cramer at UFC 101 in August 2009, so the fight will serve as a welcomed homecoming for him."I know how to do stuff, so I was doing handyman stuff and making money that way," he said. "But I'd rather make money in the cage. I really didn't want to retire. I'm in my prime I'm 27."
After that fight, he'll get to work for what he said will be a planned spot in the Season 10 welterweight tournament, looking to stay the kind of busy he was hoping for with Bellator to begin with.
"I think they're going to keep me a lot more active in the future," Riddle said.

Be a Digital Arsonist
In a recent article published by AdNews, we suggest that it makes more sense to spread a client's budget around by lighting a series of small spotfires. Once you see an idea starting to flame then you can start to scale it up and increase its value. We also suggest that utilities and platforms are the new campaigns. Is it smarter to create something of value that doesn't fall off the face of the earth after a few months?

Ask for Help
"What do you tell Rails the default timezone is if your database has no concept like that?"
The best solution was to convert all rows in your DB to UTC and set Rails to also use UTC. There are MySQL commands to convert whole databases over to UTC, and can be run overnight if necessary.
Interesting Things
There is a new release of Fixture Builder!
- Supports Rails 2 and 3
- Supports using existing Rails style fixture files using
config.legacy_fixture = Dir[path_to_old_fixtures]in your fixture_builder.rb file
- Its better tested too!
- Go grab it at https://github.com/rdy/fixture_builder#readme
Rails 3 Helpers
Rails now includes all helpers across your project in controllers that extends ApplicationController. Apparently there isn't a setting to override this behavior either, and this is a change from Rails 2 where the scaffold would just include a line at the top of your controller like
helpers :all which could easily be deleted.

MMA Junkies' Steven Marrocco tweeted the salaries for several UFC 162 fighters, including the main event's Anderson Silva and Chris Weidman:
Anderson Silva banks $600k show and $200k to win at UFC 162, while Weidman gets $24k/24k.
Co-mainers: Frankie Edgar ($120k/$120k) and Charles Oliveira ($21k/21K)
However, these official figures do not represent an accurate assessment of each fighter's income.
Fighters bear significant costs including training expenses, a percentage to management, a percentage to the trainer, insurance, licenses, and taxes.
On the income side, in addition to announced salaries. the UFC characteristically gives out undisclosed "locker room" bonuses. Main event fighters often get points on PPV buys. In addition there are publicly announced 'of the Night' bonuses. Sponsorship money can be substantial, although they have dropped markedly over the past couple of years.

With that said, if you're on the petite side, I would wait to try it on in stores. The store I went to didn't have the XXS so I don't know how that would have fit. June 11, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by ChrissaTX So cute for summer I originally saw this online & didn't really give it much thought until I saw it on in person & at that point I had to purchase immediately!! The picture on the web or even the suit itself hanging on the hanger does not do justice to how it actually looks on in person. It's very classy/flirty/cute & I really like the open back. Definitely a good buy! May 25, 2013

ROSEMONT, Ill.---The Chicago Wolves trailed 2-1 after 20 minutes of play but rattled off the final four goals to earn a 5-2 victory Thursday night over the Abbotsford Heat at the Allstate Arena.
Right wing Mark Mancari (2G, A) and forwards Jordan Schroeder, Victor Oreskovich and Tim Miller posted tallies for Chicago, which won for the fifth time in its last six outings.
"I thought we started well despite the score," said Wolves Head Coach Craig MacTavish. "We gave up two power-play goals but we were able to capitalize when we received the man-advantage and it helped us earn two points."
Trailing 2-1 heading into the second period, Chicago (14-10-1-3) tied the score 4:09 into the middle frame. Defenseman Mark Matheson's shot from the point was stopped by Abbotsford goaltender Danny Taylor but the rebound bounced to Mancari, who tucked the puck home from the far post.
Chicago grabbed a 3-2 lead while on the power play at 10:46 of the second stanza. Mancari's shot was blocked by Taylor and the clearing attempt of the rebound hit a Heat defenseman and landed at the skates of Schroeder, who snapped a shot past Taylor.
The Wolves inched ahead 4-2 when forward Nathan Longpre dropped a pass from the side of the net into the slot for Oreskovich, who one-timed a shot past Taylor.
Miller's short-handed empty-net tally with 49 seconds remaining in the game gave the Wolves a 5-2 lead.
Abbotsford (20-9-2-0) opened scoring on the power play when defenseman Jordan Henry picked up a loose puck in the slot and flicked it over the shoulder of Wolves goaltender Eddie Lack at 5:43 of the first period.
Chicago knotted the score 1-1 at 13:39 of the opening frame. Center Steve Reinprecht wrapped around the net with the puck and fed Mancari standing alone at the top of the crease. He tapped the puck past Taylor into an empty net.
Taylor (10-5-0) posted 30 saves.
The Heat jumped ahead 2-1 on the power play when center Krys Kolanos' shot from the near circle deflected off the leg of forward Quintin Laing and past Lack at 19:13 of the first frame.
Lack (6-7-3) kicked out 29 of 31 shots.
The Wolves return from a holiday break to take on the Peoria Rivermen in an Illinois Lottery Cup contest at 7 p.m., Monday, Dec. 26 at Carver Arena
Abbotsford 2 0 0 -- 2
Chicago 1 2 2 -- 5

One of the drawbacks of MMOs is that travel is very rarely--at all--meaningful. Part of the price a 3D world pays for camera control; you can see what's happening, out to the edge of agro range or even far beyond.
Surprise is only achieved by a mob spawning literally in your lap. Compromises exist; patrolling mobs help (a little), randomly wandering mobs help (a lot more). Really tight density-spawning creatures are "annoying and tedious", if you're more concerned with getting from A to B than you are with killing spawns.
But still, for a reasonably careful player, traveling from A to B just isn't something that's ever classed as "difficult".
In the MUD days, we would travel from town to town via scripted movement--Move E, Move E; Move S, Move NE...you could do the moves manually, once you're memorized the sequence, but most folks, honestly, didn't do that for long. A question of A to B being a 2-minute movement script or a 25-minute manual walk. "Surprise" consisted of moving into a room with a hostile crittur on your path; if it could get a hit in on you, your scripts would (sometimes) be interrupted, you could even get killed.
At best, it reminds you of a toon's mortality (sneaking through a zone that's at or above your level).
But town A to town B? Generally doesn't involve movement through much or any "near your level" territory. Which may be the design flaw that's really missing from this equation. Travel's is only meaningful through critturs (or players) that can do more than annoy you. Add mounts, and even fewer critturs can even annoy you. It's not inconvenience that's missing; it's relevance.
If you find travel enormously tedious, I might first suggest a PVP realm to 'wake you up'.

Fantastic post OP. Too streamlined gives very little sense of accomplishment which leads to boredom. I do think its a fine line on a few issues. One thing that really needs to be addressed is the sense of danger when going through a zone as well as solo pve difficulty. Both need to be adjusted higher. I think we will eventually see some indie dev put difficulty back in solo play.

Perahps one of the simplest examples of how messy this concept gets is travel time. If you were a developer, how long should you make players hold down the w key to get from one hub to the next. Is it a complete waste of the player's valuable time? Is it a check on over-efficient consumption of content? Or is required part of building a sense of geography, isolation and anticipation? Is it all of these at once?
My opinions on this are all over the map (and not always consistent with each other), but one of the trends that is setting off alarm bells for me is the notion of cash-shops being used to bypass inconvenience, that the idea of the sole reason an inconcenience exists in a game is to be a motivation for people to pay real money to get past it. It freaks me out to look around on forums and see other people *not* having the same alarmed reaction, just taking it in stride. It's a humbling reminder to me that I still have a lot to learn about how other people think.

While I can agree witht he points, you forget that what you describe only applies to a small part of overall MMO playerbase. Keep in midn that back then whe, 100-200k players in a MMO was a lot, nowadays, ammo that falls that low is considered a failure and disgrace to the genre.
Once the whole thing exploded (thanks to vairous factors) and a high profile MMO is expecte dto have at least 1 million players on board you get a lot more poeple that play to kill time, to have some fun for 2-3 hours a day every other day, those people make the majority of the customers so it's no surprsie that the developers started creating games that are enjoyable for that group.
On whatever games official forums you will rarley find a huge number of posts syaing "stuff is too easy", on the contrary, majority will want more (stuff) for less (effort)m they want to know that those 2-3 hours they put in every now and than is meaningful in itself, separate from the "big picture" and provides noticeable progress to whatever goal they may have set for themselves.
Same time you can see all those "hardcore" MMOs barley able to sustain themselves, with exception of EVE that due to it's unique approach has rather loyal fanbase. Doesn't help that when some indie company goes to make MMO that has more "punishing" gameplay 3 others try the same thing at same time which gives each of them even smaller slice of the overall pie and neither has enough resources to produce quality game on their own.

I remember when we just played the game. When playing Pac Man didn't go around shouting, "WTF that Red Ghost is OP" we just learned to deal with it - and got better at the game. Inconvenience comes in many flavors. I don't like mindless repetition, but I'll take inconvenient challenge any day.

Well, what compells you to reduce the argument just to combat, aggro and ambushes?
How about stamina, encumbrance (sic?), class based teleports and forms of travel, transportation blocked zones and areas, area bonuses/penalties (peace/periodic damage, regen+-) promoting mobility instead of sticking to a spot...
Those were all in the muds, but ofcourse, these days, when "combat is the core mechanic of mmorpgs"...

I do remember some teleports, generally only something you did once your backpack was full, from atop the corpse pile and back to 'town'. I suppose the specifics varied by title, but it was a pretty "big gun" power in MUDs, not something used every trip. GS used a lot of 'anchor point' teleport gold rings, which included a chance of being "mugged' in transit. Relevant?
Area bonues--again, would they raise a 'trivial' crittur up to 'actual threat' level?
Encumberance--Maneuver penalties, generally. Might get you killed, once in a great while, if you were silly enough to stay out in the wild that way. Maybe it's just me, but that's one 'archaic system' that was a damn good idea to get rid of; it was incredibly clumsy.

You must have played some very simplistic muds then, you know, kinda hard to argue if someone approaches you with "the frozen pizza they sell at the local 7/11 is crap, all italian food is crap and everyone should eat hamburgers".
I remember teleport disabled zones that DID make your life more challenging and where abilities like run energy regeneration or carry capacity would shine, not even mentioning fighting with penalties, in a area where you cannot regenerate, we would use the special (racial, class or quest gained) teleports to go to town and then back as mana batteries in a proper "raid", good times....
Just the consideration that a thief would be able to go on forever exping in a hostile environment while a mage would have to find ways to escape (ways to travel?) once in a while to regain mana seems so completely outlandish these days...

I think the issue of meaningful travel has to be solved with the possibility (probability?) of worthwhile encounters while traveling. Certinaly the current model of static (+ a few roaming) spawn while you travel from A to B is in no way meaningful and functions as a simple time-sink. I'm interested in the model Pathfinder is proposing where dungeon entrances will appear randomly throughout the world, the idea being that you will happen upon them while traveling / exploring. I think this and other ideas like it may be one answer to the problem of meaningful travel.
To those who's sage suggestions to the OP are along the lines of, "if you want inconvenience go play F2P games without paying...": I think that's hardly the kind of inconvenience that is being looked for here. Inconvenience must be meaningful. Needing to hold a torch in one hand or having a wizard expending some of their precious mana on a light spell while delving deep into a dungeon is meaningful (and immersive). Not being able to wear gear because you haven't unlocked the ability in the cash shop is not meaningful (and breaks immersion).

Heh, I remember doing that back in the 90s; after spawning, sleeping to max health and mana, thinking "I want to go to zone X" and punching in a sequence of directions twice as long as the Konami code from memory. I didn't intend to memorize the directions, it just kind of happened. The only time limitations involved running out of stamina. PvP was also really intense in the MUD days.

I just think when most of the "so called mmorpg" have turned into instanced dungeon and instance raid and instance battleground, you really don't need those inconvenience.
The inconvenience is really there mostly for those open world pvp games. You need people to have long travel times so they can fight each other.

Guide to the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of conditions from A to Z.
If you decide not to breastfeed, or are unable to breastfeed, commercial iron-fortified formulas can give your baby the nutrition he or she needs. Infant formulas have the right amounts of protein, calories, fat, vitamins, and minerals for growth. However, formula does not contain the immune factors that are in breast milk. The immune factors in breast milk help prevent infections and other medical conditions throughout a baby's life.
Infants who take enough iron-fortified infant formula usually do not need vitamin and mineral supplements. However, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends vitamin D supplementation for all babies drinking formula until they are drinking at least 32 ounces a day. Fluoride supplements are recommended for babies whose primary water supply is not fluoridated. Check with your baby's health care provider about fluoride supplements.
Cow's milk-based formula. Most infants should be able to tolerate a standard cow's milk formula. Cow's milk formulas are modeled after breast milk. These formulas have lactose as the carbohydrate (sugar) source. They are available in ready-to-feed cans, liquid concentrate, and powder. Regular cow's milk is not an appropriate source of nutrition for a baby.
Soy-based formulas. Soy-based infant formulas are used if an infant cannot tolerate lactose. Soy formulas do not contain lactose as the sugar source. In some cases, infants who are allergic to cow's milk formula can also be allergic to soy-based formulas. Consult your baby's health care provider before changing formulas. Vegetarian parents may prefer soy-based formulas.
Hydrolyzed formulas. Hydrolyzed formulas are easier to digest. They may be used in babies at risk for allergies. They are more expensive than regular formulas. Consult your baby's health care provider before using these formulas.
Low iron formulas. These formulas are not recommended.
Breast milk only is recommended for at least 6 months. This means no water, sugar water, or formula.
Wait until breastfeeding is well established before giving your baby breast milk in a bottle.
Working mothers can use a breast pump on break time and refrigerate or freeze the milk for later use as a bottle-feeding. Refrigerated breast milk should be used within 24 hours after pumping. Frozen breast milk is good for several months in the freezer. Fathers and other family members can be involved in feeding time if breast milk is offered from a bottle periodically.
Offer cow's milk-based formula with iron as first choice of formula if not breastfeeding.
Keep your baby on breast milk or baby formula until he or she is 1 year old. After this time, you may switch to whole milk. Children under 2 years should not drink skim or low-fat milk.
It is important to follow the formula preparation directions exactly as directed on the packaging. Using too much water can result in poor weight gain. It's also important to discuss your water supply with your child's health care provider. In some areas, water must be boiled first, or bottled water should be used.
Bottled should never be propped up.
Babies should never be put to sleep with a bottle. This can cause cavities to develop.
All babies, whether breast or bottle fed, should be offered a feeding whenever they show signs of hunger.

It's a pale sky blue with a hint of periwinkle and threads of metallic silver-white. I couldn't think of anything that would dupe this. Cult Nails Princess is more of a powder blue. Zoya Skylar is much darker. I haven't reviewed it yet, but I can see that Essie Blue Rhapsody is bluer, darker. If you have a closer dupe, I'd love to hear about it!

To the Editor:
Thank you for your excellent editorial arguing that we need public transportation in The Valley.
Last year I contacted our Representative Carol Hosford and this spring I emailed State Senators Phil Scott and Susan Minter about this issue. I believe strongly that commuter service is necessary for several reasons including the high cost of gas, the harm to the environment from the hundreds of individuals driving separate vehicles, and the harm to the roads, especially Route 100, due to the heavy load of vehicle traffic.
In talking to other parents recently about this subject, I also realized that bus service would increase our children's independence and reduce our need to drive them everywhere as well as increasing the mobility of the less well off, disabled or elderly without cars.
I know that the previous GMTA bus service was discontinued due to low ridership. However, I think things are quite different now than they were five years ago. In particular, gas is far more expensive and people are much more aware of the dangers of global warming.
A major drawback of the previous commuter bus service was its inconvenience. There was nowhere to leave one's car when you met the bus on Route 100. If this issue could be worked out, such as by GMTA leasing parking spaces at convenient locations throughout The Valley (such as Harwood, VG, the Moretown Store, the Moretown School, etc.), then I believe riders would be very interested.
At the very least, I believe it would be worth ordering the appropriate agencies to reevaluate the potential ridership and cost-effectiveness of this service. A survey could be sent to all Valley residents to gauge their interest in such service and what factors would make it possible for them to use a bus service.
I agree with the editor that public transportation is a critical need in The Valley. I hope our legislative representatives will devote their attention to addressing this urgent need.

11 Ways to Reclaim Your "Me" Time
11 Ways to Reclaim Your "Me" Time
With new research linking pressure at work to heart disease in women, it's more important than ever to take some time to unwind. Turn off the BlackBerry, take a break from tweeting and try one of these simple stress-relievers from experts and women like you.SEE MORE
Listen to music.Keep blasting Lady Gaga! Studies show that listening to the music you like can have a positive impact on your life and happiness. "Plus, music can trigger memories, give a sense of youthfulness and nostalgia, and take people into different places," says Karol Ward, L.C.S.W., author of Find Your Inner Voice. "So put on your earphones and let those sounds take you from restless to restful."
Reorganize your life.Living and working in a sea of clutter can stress you out without your even realizing it. Each week, spend a few hours clearing out your office or reorganizing your apartment. "Cleaning is therapeutic," says Elizabeth Kari, 21, from Chicago. "It creates order in my life, and I always feel ready to begin the next day with a fresh, clear start."
Splurge on a day trip.Think again about retail therapy. Studies show that spending money on life experiences is more fulfilling than spending on material items. So ditch the mall and use your "me" time to take a day trip just doing new things: dinning out, seeing a play or going to an amusement park.
Sign up for a class.Classes are a guaranteed way to secure time for yourself. "Each week I take a jewelry class," says Laurie Schultz, 34, San Diego. "I wouldn't give myself time to work on my jewelry on my own, so being in a class commits me to do something I love."
Make an appointment with yourself.Whether you're at home reading a book or giving yourself a manicure, scheduling your "me" time is imperative. The key is to make this time a commitment you have to honor, just as you would any other appointment or meeting.
Plan a girls' night."Me" time does not have to mean alone time. Sometimes the best way to de-stress is hanging out with friends. "A girls' night out doesn't have to be dinner, cocktails or dancing," says Amy Spainhower, director of creative services at metime.com, a company aimed at spreading the "me"-time message. "Try something different. Attend a professional sporting event, go visit an art gallery or museum or attend a wine-and-cheese tasting."
Take a power nap.That's right. Sleep doctor Michael Breus suggests spending your "me" time sleeping. Just a quick 25-minute power nap and you'll wake up refreshed and ready to get up and go. To get the most out of this time, try spraying a lavender mist on your pillow. "The smell of lavender eases anxiety and helps you fall asleep," says Dr. Breus. "In the end it's about the quality, not quantity, of your sleep."
Do something daring.Taking a risk and pushing your boundaries can be invigorating and energizing. "Stop saying, 'I'd like to do that someday' or 'I don't think I could do that'—and just do it," says Spainhower. "Jump out of a plane, scale a cliff, go bungee jumping, set a goal and start training for your first 5K, 10K or marathon."
Exercise.Do as the Obamas do: Pick a time each day to work out and stick to it. The physical and mental health benefits of exercise are endless, and it's the perfect time to spend refocusing, unwinding and concentrating only on you. Plus, you're not multitasking during Pilates.
Start a blog.Start a simple blog on something you're passionate about. Blogging is a great outlet for channeling your thoughts while connecting and sharing your interests with others. "I love blogging during my 'me' time," says Sunny Sea Gold, Glamour health editor and founder of healthygirl.org. "The stuff I blog about is body image and overcoming emotional eating, two things that are super close to my heart. The fact that I'm so passionate about it is what makes the writing so enjoyable and therapeutic. That and getting to know the amazing women who read and comment."
Send your mind on vacay.Can't get away? Visualize it! Imagining yourself in a place that has brought you peace and happiness is a quick, free and clinically proven way to cleanse your mind and enhance your mood. "Picture all the sights, smells and sounds of that wonderful spot," says Spainhower. "Just enjoy the feeling of pleasure that comes your way from 'visiting' your vacation destination."

Fueled fitness app wins Startup Weekend Toledo competitionWritten by Duane Ramsey | | firstname.lastname@example.com
The winning team at Startup Weekend Toledo developed a personal fitness app called Fueled during the 54-hour event.
The first-time local event, held at the College of Business and Innovation at the University of Toledo on Sept. 14-16, Startup Weekend Toledo brought entrepreneurs, business startup enthusiasts, software and Web developers and marketing gurus together to share ideas, form teams and launch a startup.
The Fueled team consisted of Steven Plummer, Steven Chaney, Scott Jones, James Lu and Kyle Pollock. The team put together their winning concept in 32 hours over the weekend, Plummer said.
"We all came separately and then came together on it. We had the right team in place to make it happen and prevailed in the end," Plummer said.
Plummer said 27 ideas for startup businesses were pitched at the event, which resulted in seven teams making presentations on proposed startup businesses to a panel of judges.
"There were other teams with great ideas, but I thought we had a good chance of winning it after seeing all the presentations," Plummer said.
Fueled, an idea originated by Plummer, was developed as an iPhone application that targets sedentary workers who sit for long periods on the job. Once the app is opened, the user pushes "Start" and receives a prompt telling them "to stand up and move."
The Fueled app offers easy workouts designed for 30 seconds to a minute using its basic functions. Plummer said the short workouts could equal a 30-minute workout over the course of each day.
Users of the app can set the intervals for the workouts and select from a variety of suggested exercises or allow the app to surprise them with the prompts provided.
"It was a very entertaining and impressive presentation that included a demonstration of the working app that they designed over the weekend," said Paul Syring, deputy mayor for external affairs for the City of Toledo, who presented the winners with their award.
Different themes for exercise, such as one for yoga, will be available as "in-app" purchases offered for 99 cents and up, Plummer said. The app is being offered free at this time.
"We think users will love it because they can work out and have fun at the same time," Plummer said.
The team is developing apps geared toward wellness programs that companies could offer employees to use. It also plans to develop brand apps for individual companies or schools such as UT, Plummer said.
The team developed a roll-out strategy for its iOS App Alpha 0.1 application for its presentation in the competition. The roll-out plan includes a desktop version of the app, said Plummer.
"The coaches, judges and speakers were great. It was a good thing for the technology community in Toledo," said Plummer, who lives in Holland and works as a portfolio manager for The Trust Company of Toledo.
The Fueled team won a free consultation with Rocket Ventures LLC and an intellectual properties consultation with Buchanan Nipper LLC, a law firm in Perrysburg. Plummer said the team plans to follow up on those offers in the next few weeks.
Syring said it was amazing to see what the seven teams came up with over the Startup Weekend. Other finalists included Fast Fruit, Follow Me, InchProve, RxMinder, Simply Grading and Sportal.
Syring's personal favorite was InchProve, a concept for a nonprofit organization that would help revitalize the city with a social tech-based app that would list development opportunities for investment in real property-based enterprises.
Startup Weekend is a global grassroots movement of active and empowered entrepreneurs who are learning the basics of founding startups and launching successful ventures. The nonprofit organization based in Seattle can be found in more than 200 cities around the world with more than 400 events in 100 countries in 2011.

Hi guys!
I thought I would introduce myself. I've been lurking for a little while. My name is Leslie, I'm 25, from NC and I had my daughter, April 24, 2011 at 29w1d due to severe pre-e. I have chronic HTN (and have since I was 17 & 30lbs lighter, it's hereditary) I had swelling that started pretty early in pregnancy that the doctors just dismissed and I ended up developing severe pre-e pretty much over night at 28w2d and delivered DD 5 days later by classical c-section. I took Methyldopa during the pregnancy- I'm not sure of the exact dosage.
I just saw my OB recently and she basically told me that the risks are way too high for me to have another pregnancy and that I should just have my tubes tied. This made me so sad. I have dealt with a lot of PTSD and bitterness from the pregnancy being ended too soon. I greived the fact that I missed out on the 3rd trimester and I would love so much to be able to experience a full term, healthy pregnancy. I'm just not sure if that's in the cards for me. I have an appt scheduled with MFM June 8th and I will see what they say but I was just curious...
How many of you have chronic HTN and then developed pre-e? Did you have another pregnancy? Was it pre-e free? What did you do differently? I guess what I'm getting at, is there any hope for me? I would love for DD to have a sibling and I would love to experience pregnancy again but I definitely don't want DD to lose her mother in the process. Thanks for your help and guidance in advance!

Sarco used to list them, might be worth a call to see if they have any left or recently found in the warehouse.
I bought a bunch of suomi drums and stick mags off of this gunbroker seller. He has had coffin mags for sale in the past, might be worth a shot to contact him. 4 Suomi 71 rd SMG drum magazines mags magazine : Magazines / Clips at GunBroker.com

Glad you all like my fun bunny. I might have enough clay to do something else too!
Jen C & C's always welcome
Hello Karen,
agree with Jen's remarks.
feel free to make constructive c/c...no digital alterations please
Hello Claudia,
It wasn't clear, to me, that there was a link with the building and the foreground group in fact the hedge and fence were keeping them apart....if that was your intention all well and good. Perhaps if someone had been waving out of a window or standing behind /or in front of the fence a link with past and present would have been more obvious?
Hope I haven't upset you. Unintentional if I have.
Hi Karen,
These photos are wonderfully evocative of spring, which has just arrived in the Shenandoah Valley - and to think that we had snow after spring officially arrived. My neighbor has a tree more than two stories tall that is covered with beautiful white blossoms, and I can see it from my bedroom window.
Thanks again for the lovely reference photos - I'm looking forward to trying one and commenting on the paintings posted so far this month. I've missed you all, as well as that burst of endorphins that creating art produces.
Comments and critiques are welcomed and appreciated.
Jen and Sarah thank you for your comments on my work in progress.
Alex it is so great to hear from you. I miss seeing your wonderful work. Welcome back.
C&Cs always welcome
Alex, Great to see you here again!
Well today we had Elvis at the spring festival at the barracks! He was good too so we got to listen to him for most of the afternoon while we painted. Some of our ladies are veterans and there was a special veterans art exhibit downstairs and two of our ladies sold paintings! Also, lots of food and games and Helicopter rides too.So fun day and lots of people found out about our studio.
I worked on the bunny some more. She wouldn't keep her bottom down so I made a base and stuck her down with some slip! The original handle broke when I touched it today so I made a sturdier one which I hope will hold. Made some basket weave on the basket and more eggs and some clean up. I think she is virtually finished will look again on Monday. Still got some clay so I will have to think of something small to do. Any suggestions?
Jen, The bunny turned out to be a big project, but worth the effort. Basket turned out nice as well. Happy Easter:
Alex, nice to see you. Pretty Avatar!
Sarah, no I'm not upset, Of course I prefer the "well done " comments,who doesn't. But I also like constructive critisism and I ike the way other people see the art. Never had much lessons in how to do a composition. So all a learning curve. My Computer is down and hope I get it fixed, doesn't look good..
C&C always welcome
This is just a quick water colour sketch of a few of the Spring flora in my garden this morning.
There is actually more space around the flowers in the original which is on HP Fabriano 5, 5" x 5.5"
managed a 'better' upload. Still 5" x 5.5" and the same flowers. From my garden this morning. Very quick sketch on HP Fabriano 5
Hello Jen,
why not try a sheep..the 'wool' is quite east to make if you make the body first and extrude the 'wool' through a sieve and attach with slip. You could make a flock if you had enough clay. Shetland/Soay sheep are the brown colour.
Sarah wonderful sketch and beautiful flowers. I can't wait for things to start blooming here. We finally got some warm days this week.
Thanks Karen,
I have many plants blooming, they seem to be larger this year. My winter heathers have been colourful for four months now...purples/pinks/and white. The Himalayan miniature iris is fully out...
We didn't get the promised snow but it has been vey wet/windy and bitterly cold.
this is a daffodil viewed from the back...it was fun to paint it in a 'cold' colour
Actual life sized
water colour on HP Fabriano 5
Jen ~ Cute clay bunny you are working on! I imagine it won't be done for this Easter , You make me want to play with clay again ~ so fun!
Karen ~ You are progressing well with your oil painting. I really like the bright light coming thru the trees.
Comments and critiques are welcome.
Sarah ~ Thanks for sharing your quick spring flower WCs.. Enjoy your cool daffodil! There is nothing blooming here yet TODAY except crocuses & daffodil shoots. It was 70 degrees yesterday & tomorrow we are due for an inch or two of SNOW!
ALEXANDER! So nice you popped in. I have missed your art & your comments. Hope you get a little time to paint.

This undated image provided by Vogue shows former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, D-Ariz., left, with her husband, former astronaut Mark Kelly, during a photo shoot at their home in Tucson, Ariz.
TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - Former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and husband Mark Kelly talk about their push for gun regulation in the upcoming issue of Vogue magazine.
The couple has formed a political action committee in hopes of changing laws to require background checks for gun buyers, limit the size of ammunition magazines and ban the sale of assault weapons to civilians.
Giffords and Kelly were interviewed at their Tucson home for the article, which appears in the March issue of Vogue that will be available on newsstands Tuesday.
Giffords was among 13 people wounded in a January 2011 shooting as she met with constituents outside a Tucson supermarket. Six were killed.
She resigned from Congress last year. Kelly is a former astronaut who's been by her side during her recovery.
