Reports are coming in from throughout rural areas of Northeastern Wisconsin of the damage done by the straight line winds that hit several agricultural pockets. Damage from the late night storm has been reported to barns, pole buildings, sheds and silos along with some extensive crop damage on what was a fairly narrow band through parts of Waupaca, Outagamie, Brown, Kewaunee and Manitowoc Counties. Assessments are underway on how this will effect the 2013 crop.
Now even before this storm hit there had been some concerns over the corn crop and its need for some more heat and precipitation. The latest crop update showed only 60% of the states crop was rated good to excellent, with just 6% of the corn crop reaching the dough stage. Nationally 67% of the corn crop is rated good to excellent but only 18% of the crop is in the dough stage, well below the 5 year average.
Now besides here in Wisconsin, there is also concern over the progress of the crop in parts of Iowa, Minnesota and much of the Mississippi Valley. And since much of the corn crop was planted so late this year, concerns are being voiced over what may happen if we get an early frost. Of course its too early to hit the panic button, but we are looking at temperatures remaining below normal for the rest of the month and we have seen a killing frost in early September before, so traders say they will be keeping an eye on the weather in forecasting the price for new crop corn. Presently local corn for October is pricing in that low $4 a bushel range.
So the request of many a grower is that for the rest of August , is for Mom Nature to turn up the heat and also provide some more timely rains.

Camacho said the league is feeling the effects of the overwhelming demand for youth sports fields in Tracy.
"There are just not enough fields in Tracy, is what it comes down to," Camacho said.
This year, the league had to leave its old home at Monte Vista Middle School on Lowell Avenue to make way for Tracy High baseball, which makes the fields its permanent new home after being displaced because of the construction of Wayne Schneider Stadium.
The youth league also won't have its new diamonds at Legacy Fields, just north of Tracy city limits along Tracy Boulevard, until next spring.
The league starts its 2013 season on Saturday, March 9, at the Tracy Sports Complex at 11th Street and Crossroads Drive.
Players will arrive for opening ceremonies at 9 a.m. and will have a full day of games from 11 a.m. until 7 p.m. or later.
The league rents the sports complex from the city of Tracy and will have games there every Saturday, and on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights.
The league will also rent the city's Galli and Bland parks on Lowell Avenue, and Tracy Ball Park for older players. Camacho also found fields to rent from Tracy Unified School District at South/West Park School.
The league won't have all of the fields it wants, and teams will be scattered around on practice days, but at least teams know they will have place to play on game days.
"Now that I've got the schedules done it doesn't look as bad as earlier on," Camacho said. "I wasn't sure we'd get all the games in, but they're in now."
Practice time at a premium
The biggest difference this year is how often the teams will practice.
Camacho said teams that used to practice three to five times a week at Monte Vista now get one night a week at the Tracy Sports Complex, and one or two more practices during the week at another park.
Coaches have to improvise if they want more practice time, according to Ruben Marlin, coach of the 11-12 Orioles.
"I just go out to any grass area I can find," he said. "If I get a field, it's a plus. I like to practice on a diamond, but sometimes it doesn't happen that way."
In the weeks leading up to opening day, teams coped by doubling or even tripling up on the Tracy Sports Complex fields.
"We're doing the best we can with what we've got," said Robert Garcia, coach of the 11-12 Marlins, on Wednesday. "Today we were supposed to split the fields and have one team on the infield and one in the outfield."
The bright side, Garcia said, is that the city's fields at Tracy Sports Complex are well-kept and also well-lit at night.
"A lot of these boys never got to play under the lights at the other fields, so it's a big thing for the boys. They get excited," he said.
City hard-pressed to provide fields
Rod Buchanan, parks and community services director for Tracy, said that even before Babe Ruth lost its fields at Monte Vista, city staff was hard-pressed to accommodate all of the groups who want to rent city fields.
"It's a balancing act every single year," Buchanan said.
He said that 10 leagues put in requests months in advance for 7,980 hours this year on baseball and softball diamonds at Tracy Sports Complex, Veterans Park, Galli Park, Tiago Park and Bland Park and Tracy Ball Park.
The city could handle a little more than half of those requests, scheduling 4,360 hours this year for baseball and softball teams at those parks.
Buchanan added that Tracy Babe Ruth asked for 3,264 hours for the year and got 2,039 hours. He expects the new sports park north of town will make up for a lot of that difference.
"That's why Legacy Fields is such an important project to the community," he said.
The city charges $5 per hour for use of the fields and $7 per hour if the lights are used. The city also charges a $25-per-hour attendant fee for Tracy Sports Complex, a fee that can be divided among users of the park's four diamonds.
Money still an issue
Camacho said that the cost this year doesn't turn out to be much more than the $20,000 or so the league paid Tracy Unified each year to rent Monte Vista's fields. But money is still an issue.
The league used to make about $10,000 each year through its snack bar, but the city has its own contractor, Delicious Concessions, running the snack bar at the Tracy Sports Complex.
The league needs to raise more than $150,000 to put in grass, irrigation, dugouts and backstops at its five diamonds at Legacy Fields.
That meant raising fees about 10 percent to $195 each for most Babe Ruth players, who are also selling chocolate bars to raise money, unless their parents want to pay $50 to opt out of the chocolate sales.
The league will also host a crab feed on March 23 at the Tracy Community Center, and will look for field sponsors.
"We're just finishing up our marketing materials to go after local businesses to help us out," Camacho said.

Fifty years ago, CPTV was launched on Oct. 1 at 9:40 a.m. with a discussion of the humanities with critic Clifton Fadiman. The channel was the 68th station in the National Education Television Network, which predated PBS.
Fifty years later, Connecticut Public Television evolved into one of the nation's most award-winning PBS stations, responsible for countless local and national concert specials, documentaries, sports broadcasts, children's shows and innovative educational initiatives.
Beginning in October, CPTV marks its golden anniversary with a look back at fifty years. This year-long celebration includes special television programming and community events throughout the coming year.
On Tuesday, Oct. 10, Connecticut Governor Dan Malloy will host a special reception at the Governor's Mansion kicking off Connecticut Public Television's 50thAnniversary celebration. A select group of dignitaries—including Jerry Franklin, President & CEO of the Connecticut Public Broadcasting Network—will be on hand to accept a special Governor's Proclamation marking the anniversary of the public television network and its contributions to the state.
CPTV's latest original documentary, Prohibition: Connecticut Goes Dry, will be screened at a special event on Wednesday, November 7 at 6 p.m. at the Connecticut Historical Society in Hartford. As part of the station's 50th anniversary, the screening will feature creative, speak-easy cocktails and a first look at this CPTV that examines Connecticut's role during this pivotal time in America's history. Prohibition: Connecticut Goes Dry premieres later that month on CPTV.
On Saturday, April 20, 2013, CPTV will host a 50th Anniversary Gala Event at the Hartford Marriott. This black-tie affair will offer attendees the chance to reminisce about the station's history and accomplishments while also highlighting the innovative projects and programs on the horizon.
For Kids
The station has two 50th Anniversary events planned for kids and families. On Sunday, November 18 at 1 and 4 p.m. CPTV will host a concert with PBS Kids host and family performer Mr. Steve (a.k.a. Steve Roslonek) at the Theater of the Performing Arts at the Learning Corridor in Hartford. The event is sponsored by theS Connecticut Science Center. CPTV is also sponsoring the Big Y Kids Fest on Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 2 & 3, 2013 at the Connecticut Convention Center in Hartford.
Planned Programming
Connecticut Public Television will also be celebrating its golden anniversary on the air with special programming. CPTV's signature weekly magazine series, All Things Connecticut, will mark the occasion with two special 50thAnniversary Editions premiering on Friday, Oct. 12 and Friday, Oct. 19 at 8:30 p.m. on CPTV.
In addition to fascinating stories about young musicians in New Haven, Connecticut's declining bee population and the rise in popularity of yoga, these specials will also feature host Matt Roberts taking a trip down memory lane recalling CPTV's history discovering Barney the dinosaur, producing the first Spanish/American weekly drama for television and advancing women's sports.
Viewers will also notice a number of special 50th anniversary vignettes marking CPTV's role in children's programming, sports broadcasts, educational initiatives, telling Connecticut's stories and more. A number of celebrity fans of CPTV, including Martha Stewart, Jacques Pepin, Alan Cumming, Laura Linney, Judy Collins, the members of Celtic Thunder and others have also recorded anniversary messages that will begin airing on CPTV in October.

A man accused of killing his live-in girlfriend and then dumping her naked body on a Tempe street has been formally charged in the case.
A criminal complaint Thursday accuses 27-year-old Douglas Ray George of second-degree murder and abandonment or concealment of a dead body.
His next scheduled court appearance is July 2.
Annovedwin Begay's nude body was found placed in the street in a neighborhood near Baseline Road and McClintock Drive before dawn on June 15.
Sgt. Mike Pooley said a person driving to work about 4:30 a.m. saw the body and called police.
Police told CBS 5 News investigators they believe the body, which had significant trauma, was dumped overnight.
"Any time our officers are dispatched and they find something this horrific, you know it's something that's going to stick with them forever," Pooley said.
Authorities were using a sketch to try and get the public's help in finding her killer.
Two weeks before Begay's murder, George was hired to work the day shift as a cook at Bogey's Bar.
Ozo Cabrera worked alongside him. Other than asking for money, George normally didn't say very much while he was on the clock, Cabrera said. But when his shift was over, it was a different story.
"He would always come in at night on something, either on some type of pill or drunk," Cabrera said.
George worked only 30 hours at the bar before he was let go for repeatedly calling in sick.
"He never once mentioned his girlfriend to us," Cabrera said. "He was always quiet, he kept to his own, but it was always just something different about him this guy just didn't seem right."
Cabrera said he often saw Begay at the bar, too.
"She would just sit out there and wait for him. She would act like she was going to order something but never would," Cabrera said.
According to police reports, George and Begay had been dating for about a year. On June 4, things got physical.
A clerk at Tempe Circle K called police to report the couple fighting in the parking lot. Begay told officers George slammed her head into a car door but refused to press charges. Eleven days later, she was found dead.
"All I can say right now is that she was killed with blunt force trauma. She did have a lot of stab wounds and cuts to her face and body," Pooley said.
Tempe police said a tip from a friend who recognized a sketch of her led police to George.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 by 2 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5 by carijane top heavy I've had this water bottle for about a year, and it's held up fairly well. Unfortunately, as the previous reviewer mentioned, it is top heavy and tips over too easily. Also, the lid has chipped a bit. I've never tried to take the silicone sleeve off because I can clean the bottle easily with it on, so no complaints there. In fact, I'm glad the sleeve is on there because it's protected the bottle the few times I've dropped it on the ground. It must be working, because the bottle's still intact! Still, I don't think I'd buy this again because of the top-heaviness. December 31, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by NanaLynn5 Too Heavy I found this bottle to be too top heavy with the cap on and the silicone sleeve is very difficult to get on and off. July 9, 2013

Be ready for break-ins: Public Safety says 'have a plan'
You're asleep in your home one night when a racket awakens you. You think someone's trying to break into your home – what should you do?
This scenario played out for several Aiken homeowners who were victims of nighttime burglaries in the downtown area earlier this month.
In Wagener last week, a man confronted three men who broke into his home, and days later another homeowner, armed with a gun, confronted a burglar breaking into his shed.
Arrests have been made in each of the Wagener incidents, as well as the downtown Aiken burglaries.
When it comes to reacting to a burglary, "every incident is situationally different," said Sgt. Jake Mahoney of the Aiken Department of Public Safety.
"What may be suitable for one situation may not be possible or suitable for another," he said. "The first thing to consider is the safety of the residents of the home. Take whatever steps are necessary to ensure their safety, whether it be to retreat to a secure area of the home, to leave the home – whatever the case may be. Contact law enforcement as soon as they're safe. Those are your first steps."
Have a plan
Mahoney said one thing that will help in any situation is to have a plan. "It's prudent to at least have thought, 'What would you do if you awoke in the middle of the night and you believed someone was in your house?'" he said. Mahoney said to discuss a plan of action with other family members in the home, keeping in mind the places people sleep and entrances to each room.
Call 911
Access to 911 is also important, and Mahoney recommended keeping a phone near your bed and having emergency numbers pre-programmed into it.
"Would we shut the door or lock the door? The kids are upstairs – how would we respond to that?" he said, naming questions people should ask themselves. "It's better to have rehearsed the plan, or at least developed a plan ahead of time, than waiting until it happens and having to come up with one."
Burglary vs. home invasion
Mahoney said home invasions and burglaries are separate cases that are easy to confuse.
"Sneaking into someone's house or breaking in at night with the intent just to steal property is burglary," he said. "A home invasion is the act of breaching an occupied dwelling for the purpose of carrying out a violent crime as a means to rob, assault, rape or murder the occupants. It's not a legally defined offense, federally, and it differs from a simple burglary with its violent intent."
Get a good look
If there's an intruder in your home and you get a good look at them, as was the case in some of the recent burglaries, take note of physical descriptors like clothing, including the type and color. Also, look closely for personal characteristics such as height, weight, race, sex and facial hair.
Characteristics like scars and tattoos can help officers narrow down their search even more, Mahoney said.
"Those characteristics can help us, not only with preliminary identification but also with the prosecution of the case," he said.
If you can see a vehicle in the area, note the make and model of the vehicle, the color and license tag.
"If there are any specific characteristics of that vehicle, whether it be body damage, owner-applied decals, window stickers, any modifications to the vehicle or aftermarket accessories, they can help narrow down the search," Mahoney said.
You don't have to open the door
Some burglars will knock on the door posing as a delivery person, a service technician or even a law enforcement officer, in an effort to find out if the home is occupied or to gain entry.
Mahoney said you should always check to see who's at the door before you answer it, and that you don't have to open the door for someone you don't know.
"Always respond to the person so they know someone's home. If you don't answer, they may think, 'OK, the house is empty. I'm gonna go on in,'" he said. "Don't open the door to anyone you don't know. You can respond, 'Who is it? Who are you looking for? No, I'm not expecting a delivery.'"
If the person claims to be representing a delivery or service agency, Mahoney said you can ask for identification, and then secondary identification such as telephone number that you can use to verify someone's status with a company.
If you still have doubts, pretend there are other people in the house by calling out someone's name.
"Especially for females," Mahoney said, providing examples such as, "Hold on, my husband's coming," or "Let me get my husband and his brother. Maybe they can answer your questions."
Also, be suspicious of people who claim they're having car trouble or ask to use your phone. Mahoney said you can tell them you'll make the call for them, or offer to call the police.
You can deter criminals
To make your home less of a target, keep valuables and other items a burglar may seek out of plain view, and when new items are purchased, avoid leaving the discarded packaging in plain view outside your home.
Exterior lighting is a "tremendous" deterrent for criminals, Mahoney said.
"Criminals like being able to operate anonymously. They like the anonymity provided by darkness and shadows," he said. "Keeping exterior lights on doesn't always prevent crime, but it could make your home or property less attractive to criminals."
Keeping a few lights on in common areas of your home such as the living room will also deter and perhaps even catch burglars.
"If someone does enter your home, that may enhance the probability that they can be discovered by a neighbor or a passing officer on patrol," Mahoney said, adding that automatic timers on some electronics also acts as a deterrent by simulating activity in the home.
Mahoney said burglars often "scout" a location before committing a crime, and that residents need to be alert to suspicious people and vehicles in their neighborhoods.
If you see something suspicious, call 911.
"We'd much rather respond out there than have to receive a call later," he said.

Sette Element Mountain Shoe
A great looking shoe that'll have all other cyclists wondering what you're sporting. The super ridged nylon sole transfers every bit of torque you can dish out.The power hungry aggressive outsoles allow optimum grip in all conditions, so next time you are heading big you'll have the kicks to back you up.
hands down the best intro to attached riding. Flexibility , easy to walk in ,,, cheap durable... should I go on... I have had mine for almost 6 years and they have 1000's of miles on them and they still work like a champ... Stay away from the wellsgo pedals they come with sometimes... buy a decent pair of shimano SPDs I ride these road and mountain and they are great dual purpose. I now ride SIDI ergo 5's and these shoes paved he way for me to appreciate a real pair of nice road shoes... I owe my start in riding to these shoes ... they transformed my ride and made me want to do more and more miles !!! Happy riding everyone mountain or road ;)
I've been riding this shoe for 10 years. The treads are just now starting to fall apart. The straps and velcro are still working perfectly as is the sole. Now I'm debating shoes again and these are falling to the top of the list. I'm 6'1" at 210lbs and ride these all over the east coast. They are well ventilated and even after getting wet hundreds of times, they still don't stink. Go figure.
I was looking for a shoe that can be walked in like a PI X-Alp Enduro or Shimano M077. These are not that shoe. The lugs are more of a hard plastic than a rubber. I nearly slipped trying them on on my tile. The fit was about a size too small as well. They may be a good dedicated XC shoe, but, if i wanted that type of shoe i would've got a stiffer lighter shoe. The Shimano M077 is much better for wet rocks and roots compared to this.
they've held up for a year, but the stitching is fraying, the velcro is coming lose, and the cardboard foot-bed (below the liner) is molding. Only the last could be my fault, for not thoroughly drying them.
I bought these shoes as my first in a combo deal with Time Atac Alium cleats. Overall, these are great shoes and go up to the large size I need (49). My only disappointment is they run a bit wide, and I have narrow feet, so they are a little bit loose.
I've had these shoes for nearly 6 years and they've held up over multiple seasons from flowy Midwestern singletrack to riding Slickrock Trail in Moab, UT and now cruising the rockgardens of the Black Hills. For the price, you cannot beat these shoes. If you want something a bit more comfy/secure-fitting, however, I'd opt for the Sette shoes with the buckle (but of course you'll pay just a bit more). Happy riding!
Always had problems with shoes not fitting right. I'm a 10.5/US, and WIDE!!! Bought the 45 and still some room up front. First day commute today, very comfortable. Paired with Shimano M520. To all my WIDE FEET brothers and sisters, you cannot go wrong with this shoe!
Have used these shoes for bike commuting and single track riding. Work extremely well for the price and seem to be well made.
Good value for the buck! I got mine on sale and will buy this model again. Fast drying, straps super convenient.
Good price for a functional, starter clipless shoe. Solid construction.
I bought a pair of these shoes, my first whit cleats and i use it with shimano pedals, that was more than a year ago, and they are in a great conditions i use them 3 or 4 times a week, on streets, hard terrain, mud, and also hiking with my bike and crossing smalls rivers, they are very easy to put, just a few seconds and you're ready to go, i would recommend this to anyone!
I've put these shoes through four seasons of hard riding both on and off road, and under many different conditions. They've held-up quite well, and should last for a long time. Sizing is pretty accurate, but might run a tad smaller, which is what I needed. Upper mesh material breathes well in the summer, and I actually use them with insulated shoe covers during the winter. They've taken a lot of abuse, and still look good. Great value for any rider.
I ordered these shoes and feel great easy too wear and really comfortable only bummer is a metal screw in spike was missing from my pair of shoes and am still waiting for it to arrive in the mail from sette I called in to let them know my order was missing apiece and they told me they would send it to me it's already been a month and still waiting Hope your order isn't missing a cleat or you'll have to walk funny when u wear them like me
This was my first clip less shoe and I am still using them today. The are amazing for the price but could be a bit lighter.
Shoes are a bargain and are holding up really well to me abusing them :) Would recommend.
If you are looking to save a few bucks and get a good quality shoe, this is it. I have had zero problems with this shoe. In fact i have loved how they fit and their durability. I have hiked my bike in them and even been through a river in them. These are worth every penny of the price.
I purchased these as my intro to clip less riding, having never ridden "connected" before. The fit was great out of the box and once I got the pedals adjusted they work very well. Sizes run a little small as others have stated, so if you are in between sizes on the chart, go up.
Picked these up for my 12 year old son. He loves them and the quality for the price is 2nd to none
Got shoe delivered this past week, shoes look well made and sturdy. Tried them one before installing clips and came to find out they felt tight, toes reached the front of shoe, I'm an 11.5 and wide foot, got size 46 which should fit a size 12 like indicated on underside of tongue. I'm returning for an exchange to a bigger size. My advice go one size up.
I use these with the shimano m520 and they work well together. Sizing may run just a bit large but not outrageous. Very stiff with minimal padding or cushion but not uncomfortable. Easy on easy off. I've had them for almost a year and I'd buy again.
Love the Velcro straps, great adjustability and secure. The shoes are new so I expect a little discomfort around the ankle padding. Nice strong platform to pedal off of. The screw in toe spikes are absolutely awesome. These things dig in and make the necessary climbs easy. I'm a 9.5+ and the 43's fit perfect with a medium sock. Was hesitant, took a chance and am happy with the product. And of course you know this: PricePoint is excellent!
The shoe was really bad. No arch to it at all. The sides the shoe cut into my ankle also. This is after a 7 mile mtb ride. I really don't know why this company would make such a bad shoe and try to sell this. Spend the extra money and buy anything but this shoe. After this game with the company, I'm not buying anything from here again. Real problems with returns. Good luck.
Ordered these shoes as my first ever mtb shoes. Glad I went clipless for the trails. I wear a size 10 1/2 and 45 fit well. The shoe itself is comfy and the sole does a great job of maintaining grip on slick or loose trails when carrying or walking the bike.
Just tried these shoes out today . I wear a size 10 1/2 and a 45 fit perfect . Great shoe for the price ! It was my first time going clipless and I wonder why I waited . I used Shimano PD - M530 pedals with Shimano SH 56 cleats and got in and out of the pedals with no problem. I'll never go back to cages ! Try them out !
I wear a size 11 shoe so I ordered a size 45 that is suppose to be for US size 11 to 11.5. My toes were touching the end of the shoes. I exchanged them for a size 46. Fit is much better. Just got them and took them out for their first ride. Shoes were comfortable and wored well. Recommend ordering 1 size larger.

How often would you be willing to take a 2 1/2 year old swimming? Keeping in mind that it's an indoor swimming pool, so the chlorine is pretty strong smelling (the water is average, but it hangs in the air more), and she NEVER goes under water.
I'm trying to get Maiya more comfortable in the water so we can all have more fun when we go to Hawaii in June... So she has 6 months!
This place is great and PERFECT for her, and she loves it and would go every day, and cheap, so I'm thinking about aiming to go 3 times a week (though that will never actually happen, we're too busy!!), at about an hour a time. But then I worry about it drying out her skin or hurting her eyes or irritating her lungs...
And, if you think it's fine to go often, any ideas for countering the effects of all that chlorine? Or do I worry too much?

"This is my house. I worked so hard to get this house," said Orna Spencer.It was supposed to be a happy day. The papers signed and time to move into a home on Five Points Road on Detroit's west side. Spencer, her husband and infant daughter were supposed to be living there, but squatters moved in. The couple and the real estate agent were left standing outside baffled as to what to do with a house full of strangers."There were chairs on the lawn. There were curtains in the window. We knew that there were people in the house, but no one was supposed to be there," Spencer explained. "I broke out in tears because I was supposed to move into this house on Monday."The Spencers called the cops, but police can't just kick people out of a house, even if it's yours. Real estate attorney Rod Dunlap explained why."If they have evidence that clearly this person's a trespasser, then they will sometimes be willing to kick the person out, but if there's any type of a legal issue on it, a lot of times you'll have the police officer saying this is a civil matter. Let's let the courts make a decision on that."The Spencers said they've had talks with the couple that is now squatting in the house. The couple told the Spencers they bought the house for $10,000 from a mystery man. Now HUD is in the process of evicting this couple, but that could take anywhere from three to six months."Their claim to us was that they paid $10,000 for this house to some gentleman that has no paperwork, no proof of anything, and if it's going to put them on the street, yes, I feel bad for them, but I can't feel bad for them more than I feel bad for myself because I have to take care of my family," Spencer said.The Department of Housing and Urban Development has taken the house, so the Spencers don't have to take the squatters to court. HUD is now mowing the lawn. They've also posted an ultimatum on the front door, but the door on this matter isn't closed yet. It's another issue regarding squatter's rights. If they stay for too long, their rights have to be considered by a judge."It definitely takes time. No doubt about it. In the meantime, if the person's a squatter, a trespasser, that's to their advantage because they're staying somewhere for free," said Dunlap."When we get here, they're telling us that they bought the house. There is no way that you could buy a house that is owned by HUD, and I have the proof and the paperwork," said Spencer.There's more paperwork to be done before the Spencers move in for good.

Chiffon Halter Wedding Gown with Beaded Embroidery Style V3485 6 6
Gorgeous! This is my 2nd marriage and I was looking for something that was simple but elegant. I was looking for something that accentuates my curves tastefully. When I tried on this dress- I actually cried and knew this was it. It needs very minimal alterations, fits almost perfect. It was breathtaking on me . I cant wait for our wedding day in April . December 17, 2013
Great choice This lightweight chiffon figure-fitting halter gown is perfect for a summer wedding. It was very comfortable to wear, since I was not concerned about it sliding down as I would have with a strapless dress. It is great for tall brides since it seemed to be longer than many other dresses. I felt beautiful, classy and a little sexy, as one should on her wedding day. August 22, 2013
Don't let them buy this big I am so disappointed with this dress. It ruined my wedding. The dress was ordered by the store too big. The problem is that the top can't be taken in....the halter sides needed serious slimming down but it was not done. The dress magnified my already large chest as a result... Even after serious alterations. It was too late or them to get me a new one so i was stuck with the one the store ordered for me. I wish I didn't waste my money on this dress and the alterations and on a photographer as I don't wish to see this dress again. The back looks so cheap and the fabric looks wrinkled on the halter even after pressing. Beware. August 18, 2013
Love it! My wedding isn't for another 15 months, but wanted to start getting ideas for a dress. I took my mom and sister to David's Bridal, not expecting to find anything. After I tried on 4 other dresses, the consultant brought over this dress. As soon as I put it on, I started to cry! It felt light and just felt right. I didn't want to take it off. It is a beautiful dress. I can't wait to get it in October so I can put it on again!! May 30, 2013

Opinion | Features
Video is no replacement for good strategy
Too often CMOs think of video as some sort of magic solution when really they should approach the investment required with caution argues Adam Woods.
A hush falls over the boardroom as the CMO delivers his six-months-in-the-making strategy; a strategy, if rumours are to be believed, that will revolutionise the way business is done and, in one fell swoop, drag the company kicking and screaming into the modern marketing era.
Why size doesn't matterMedia agencies, be they independent or multinational, are often very focused on the size of their overall billings. Match Media founder John Preston argues that the industry's preoccupation with billings is unhelpful, particularly within the independent media agency space. There appears to be a fair amount of preoccupation at the moment around size... i.e. size of billings rather than the quality of work created. And, the size of billings seems to be a shout-out from some media independents.
Where does Campaign Brief stand on scam?Michael Lynch, boss of industry website Campaign Brief has questions to answer with agencies about his true position on scam, argues Mumbrella's Tim Burrowes. It can get a little boring when the trade press writes about itself, so my apologies if you find what follows a little tedious. Doubly so, if you feel we've been writing too much about the topic of scam. This morning I find myself the subject of some media coverage (if you count an item in the diary section of The Australian and a follow-up on Campaign Brief).
What Australia's fake, formulaic and contrived work could learn from the humanity of AfricaAustralia's "fake, formulaic and contrived" creative work could learn a few things from the insight-driven cream of African advertising, argues Pat Baron. I've just had the privilege and pleasure of spending a week of 14-hour working days poring over the most creative and effective work created in Africa and the Middle East, as Jury Chairman at The Loeries, Africa's largest brand communication awards. The contrasts with our work here in Australia – and the lessons for marketers and agencies alike – are profound.
What goes into making an AFL Club's 'brand'?With the AFL finals in full swing, Team Epic head of strategy Tony McKay looks at why some clubs are always in the news, irrespective of their performances, while others fade from the headlines. Why are some AFL clubs always in the news, seemingly always relevant and contributing to the footy story, regardless of on-field performance week-to week? And yet other clubs seem to almost disappear as soon as the losses outnumber the wins? Look at the Western Bulldogs and St Kilda in 2014. Poor performers, yes, but also largely anonymous. When did you last hear a spirited footy discussion about either club? What's their brand story at the moment?
Is wearable tech an opportunity for pharma to be more caring?With wearable tech set to burgeon Peita Pacey takes a look at the opportunities which are presenting themselves in the healthcare sector for brands. In the olden days, you know like 5 years ago, when people felt ill or just not quite ourselves they went to the doctors. Nowadays their usual first point of call is to contact Dr Google, who is most likely helpful enough to diagnose them with a rare form of incurable cancer at which they run screaming from our screens into the waiting room of an actual doctor who rolls their eyes and prescribes us with some R&R.
Credit where it's due: Margaret and David - bringing the curtain downAfter yesterday's announcement the ABC is wrapping At the Movies at the end of the year we give Credit Where its Due to one of the longest on-screen partnerships in Aussie TV, Margaret and David. As Margaret always acknowledged, they were like an old married couple, but without the sex. Quarrelling, bickering and occasionally agreeing. But it was all done with mutual respect and genuine affection. We refer, of course, to Margaret Pomeranz and David Stratton, known by movie fans across Australia simply as Margaret and David. Surnames were rendered superfluous for two of TV's most respected and popular presenters.
Bitter tweet: defamation in social mediaAhead of a video hangout on Wednesday answering your legal questions Stephen von Muenster looks at how defamation law is evolving in social media. 140 defamatory characters posted in the Twitter-sphere could cost tens of thousands of dollars in damages, the New South Wales District Court has held. The case reignites the complexities of defamation law in a world where everyone is a publisher and information is disseminated across the globe at the click of a button.
Why 'free' will eventually cost youModern marketing is taking services and products that used to be free and adding subtle charges for them, argues Andrew Hughes of the Australian National University in a cross-posting from The Conversation. Remember the days when free really was free? When reading a news article to the end didn't mean having to get over, around or through a paywall. Or when loyalty schemes actually rewarded loyalty with decent rewards, not "spend $200 get a $20 reward voucher that can only be spent with us".
Credit where it's due: Devondale - brave and bold marketing to build a brandIn a new column Mumbrella celebrates the best people and work in the industry. Today we recognise dairy brand Devondale for its work with creative agency DDB which saw the brand revitalise a tired sector. It's a common moan from creatives in Australia there aren't many clients willing to take a risk with their brand due to the grip of a conservative corporate culture. But one brand which has given its agency free-reign to push boundaries, and reaped the rewards, is Devondale.
Has social media failed e-commerce?Following the launch of Twitter's "Buy" button earlier this week, Peter Cassidy, co-founder of Stackla, examines how social media drives potential consumers to retail websites. The success and rapid adoption of social media made it inevitable that businesses would look to social to drive online sales. New social platforms came with the promise of unprecedented reach, providing retailers with the means to drive swarms of qualified prospects to their websites. The truth of course, is that social media didn't deliver on the promise.
The new iPhones may not be revolutionary, but they are refining the experienceWith the launch of two new iPhones today DT's Jason Deacon says Apple has done the job of redefining mobile experiences. When you pick up a phone in a store the first thing that grabs your attention is the display. It's the feather fascinator on a Melbourne Cup goer. The 'new and improved' sticker on your washing detergent. The hundreds and thousands on white bread.
Social media influence is a fallacy
Following yesterday's opinion piece on the power of social media ambassadors yesterday Eaon Pritchard argues the idea of influencers is actually flawed.
The idea that brands can pick out and target a small group of social media users with large 'followings' and then imagine that they will reach everyone else with their message is still prevalent however this influencer theory is a myth and its protagonists have got things the wrong way round.
Credit where it's due - Lee Lin Chin, a newsreader with gravitas and comedy geniusIn a new column Mumbrella celebrates the best people and work in the industry. Today we salute 20-year SBS veteran Lee Lin Chin, who traverses the serious world of news with a more light-hearted approach. There aren't many newsreaders who can successfully make the leap to light entertainment, but Lee Lin Chin can put that feather in her cap. Not content with being a mainstay on the po-faced SBS World News since 1992, Lee Lin has been engaging and delighting a younger audience with her regular appearances on SBS2's The Feed.
The power of cool and product placement in social mediaProduct placement is infiltrating social media influencers, but how long will it be before the platforms come for their piece of the pie asks Richie Meldrum? Beauty and popularity have always gone hand in hand. If you think back to the most popular kid at your school, chances are, he or she was blessed with nice hair, clear skin and fortuitous features. Call it natural selection if you like, but the cool kids have courted the attention and admiration of their peers in a relationship dynamic that's been going on as long as anyone can remember.
Coles to partner with Ninemsn for another year
Supermarket giant Coles will continue its relationship with Ninemsn for another year as a premier partner for its culinary site, Food.
The announcement:
Monday, 6 August 2012: ninemsn's culinary destination, Food, has extended its successful relationship with Coles after they signed on as the site's premier partner for another year.
ninemsn's Food hub has seen massive growth in visitors since launch in October last year, with the tailored Coles-branded content integrated across the site proving particularly popular.

LA FARGE, Wisconsin (WXOW) -- At least half of Organic Valley's headquarters building in La Farge is a total loss, according to fire chief Philip Stittleburg.
No one was hurt, but employees there will not be reporting for work tomorrow.
Company officials said management and IT teams will be working through the night coordinating a response effort.
Workers at the facility reported being evacuated shortly after 4 p.m. Tuesday.
LA FARGE, Wisconsin (WXOW) - UPDATE: La Farge's Fire Chief calls the west end of the Organic Valley's Headquarters building "a total loss" after a fire there Tuesday.
Chief Philip Stittleburg said while the fire was mostly contained to the west end, there was some damage to the eastern part of the building.
Firefighters from at least eight departments took several hours to control the fire in the two story building. Crews remained on the scene well into Tuesday night.
Photos taken at the scene shortly after firefighters were called around 4:00 p.m. showed smoke coming from the building. A short time later, visible flames appeared along the roof and inside the building according to our crew at the scene. By 7:00 p.m., a large portion of the roof has sagged in.
Crews from La Farge, Richland Center, Viroqua, Hillsboro, Viola, Westby, Ontario, and Coon Valley are all contributed men and equipment for fighting the fire.
George Siemon, Organic Valley CEO, spoke to WXOW Tuesday evening. He said that 400 people work in the building, which was built in 2004. An addition to the building was built in 2011. The building is office space-none of their production takes place at the site.
Siemon said that he's been told that the fire started in a wall in the older section of the building, but was not sure what caused it.
He said that they're planning to shift operations to Cashton for the time being.

Waterlogged communities in upstate New York were hit with more rain from a line of storms that also disrupted air and some road travel around New York City on Monday.Flash flood watches were posted in much of the upstate region, and there were flood warnings along the Hudson, Mohawk and Susquehanna rivers.Thunderstorms in the New York City area caused flight delays of up to three hours at local airports, with the longest delays at John F. Kennedy and LaGuardia airports, the Federal Aviation Administration said Monday afternoon. New Jersey's Newark Liberty International Airport reported delays of up to 90 minutes. Hundreds of flights were canceled across the country because of the weather.The National Weather Service said the severe weather also caused minor flooding on highways and streets across the state.Forecasters said showers and thunderstorms were expected to continue into Tuesday morning, with total amounts of one to three inches in most places and up to five inches possible in some spots.On Monday afternoon, heavy rain and minor flooding were reported in the Southern Tier along the Pennsylvania border and in the lower Hudson Valley. The weather service issued a flash flood warning for parts of Madison, Oneida, Montgomery and Herkimer counties, where heavy rain was reported during late afternoon.Those counties were hit by major flooding last week and were included in a request Monday from Gov. Andrew Cuomo for a federal disaster declaration covering 15 counties hit by flooding that destroyed roads and other infrastructure. The other counties are Broome, Chenango, Clinton, Essex, Delaware, Franklin, Otsego, Schoharie, St. Lawrence, Tioga, and Warren.The search continued Monday for 87-year-old Ethel Healey, who has been missing since her mobile home was swept away by rising flood waters in the Mohawk Valley town of Fort Plain on Friday.

A valley couple with some physical challenges is having trouble getting around the house or doing any repairs -- but they're getting a big gift today.
Volunteers are giving this couple a home makeover.
More than a dozen volunteers from Home Depot spent this week remodeling an elderly couple's home.
"They were on a fixed income and unable to do these repairs themselves," says Caroline Kelsall, Support Dept. Supervisor at Home Depot.
It's not always easy for Armand Laratta and his wife to get around the house. They have a few physical challenges. But this makeover should make life a little easier.
"It's amazing it's amazing that things like that could happen," says Armand Laratta. "It's going to be a big help."
The remodel will make the home safer for Armand and his wife. Plus there's a new shower that's easier for them to step into.
"I had problems stepping over the tub and everything very dangerous... putting a shower in there, it's easy."
In addition to renovating the bathroom, crews are busy installing new counter tops and remodeling the entire kitchen.
"Everything was really bad before, we didn't have a stove a couple years, now I'll be able to cook again in it."
New appliances are now replacing the empty spots in the kitchen. And a lot of yard work and spring cleaning brighten up the entire home.
It's thanks in part to a grant through the non-profit group "Angels On-Call."
"We've been able to give them a remodeled bathroom and kitchen and were doing some yard work and painting," says Kelsall.
"They're doing a great job, I'm loving every bit of it," says Laratta.
Just a couple hours ago, Home Depot volunteers discovered a big problem at the house -- a gas leak.
It could've caused a massive problem there.
Southwest Gas came out and shut the gas line down this afternoon. A natural gas company will now re-pipe the house for free to give the couple a helping hand.

Levi's Commuter 511 Trousers $87.95
Live, work, and ride.
Sure, you tear up the tarmac after work, but Levi's want to know why you're not riding everywhere, all of the time? Yes, we're referring to the two words that strike fear into the hearts of all Lycra-coveting man on earth -- bicycle commuting. Perhaps you've tried in the past, and perhaps your momentary feeling of accomplishment was crushed by sneers directed towards your cycling kit? Trust us, whether it be at the liquor store or the office, we've all experienced that 'huh?' look. Enter the Levi's Commuter 511 Trousers. Finally, you're able to ride, work, and live in one pair of pants.
These aren't some run-of-the-mill, one-off attempt at appeasing a subculture. Instead, Levi's worked closely with cyclists in multiple cities around America, distributing prototypes and accepting feedback. And, as a result of developing the pants in accordance to critique, Levi's effectively dialed-in the fit, accoutrements, and finishes to what cyclists are actually asking for.
Accordingly, Levi's adapted its slim-fit 511s to the purpose of cycling. The Commuter 511s feature a water-resistant and dirt-repellent NanoSphere protective finish to make commuting in hostile weather a little more acceptable, especially if your ending destination is the office. It's for this very reason that Levi's also incorporated an odor-resistant Sanitized finish to the pants, too. Levi's also made these pants perfect for trips where your bag is staying at home by installing a U-lock holster along the rear of the waistband. This way, you're not ramming your lock down your pants, wearing out your belt, or being forced to wear a fanny-pack -- you're grown man after all.
In terms of durability, Levi's double-layered the seat panel and the rear pockets. Additionally, the crotch of the 511 is gusseted in order to resist tearing and saddle abrasion. In terms of fit, it's important to note that Levi's considers the 511 as a slim-fit pair of pants. They sit slightly below the waist and feature a skinny, slightly tapered leg. However, for the sake of coverage while in the saddle, these 511s have been cut higher in the rear than a standard pair.
For the pockets, these trousers have been given slashed front pockets, like a chino, with built-in stretch webbing at the corners. Meanwhile, the rear pockets feature a welted design. And to increase your visibility to motorists in low-light conditions, Levi's incorporated reflective 3M Scotchlite tape on the interior of the pant's cuffs.
The Levi's Commuter 511 Trousers are available in the colors Black and Harvest Gold and in the sizes 30x30, 31x32, 32x30, 32x32, 33x32, 34x32, 36x32, and 38x32.

- Familiarity: I've used it several times
These will do the job. Great, simple, slim fit to them, but not too tight like those skinny jeans we rocked in high school... Been looking for something I can wear when dressing up a little, but not feel like I'd ruin them on a night out and these definitely fit the bill. Nice strong material that takes a few days of wear to break in, but once worn, are super comfy. Great attention to detail on them as well- from simple things like the stitching, or color of the pocket interiors to more noticeable details, like the lock holster and reflective highlights on the cuffs. Wish they were a little bit longer so that I could cuff them without looking like highwaters, but, I mean, I'm kinda tall and slender anyway, so sometimes we gotta take what we can get. Hell, they impressed my lady and the judge, so they're a win in my book!
Great fit

Beware: the Timberwolf color runs longer than the Harvest Gold. Harvest Gold fit very true to size. Overall, great commuter/business casual work trousers. Pockets in the back are more formal than jeans - great feature.

Long lasting pants. The reinforced crotch is a great feature on this biking pants. The reflector in the cuff is useful in case you forget your lights or just want to be more visible while riding at night. Also, these pants are semi waterproof. Very nice if you caught in bad weather. All around good. The sizing is similar to other Levi's pants.

All I wear are Levi's 511. But, I'm disappointed in the commuter trouser. Unless, I bought a defected pair. The waist fits fine but they're way too tight in the grundage area. It seems the construction is a bit off. I might buy another pair just to see if they fit differently. Considering my complaints, I still wear them quite a bit. Because, they're functional and look good.
wow. thats all i can say

- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I've worn these basically every other day since I bought them. Really comfortable and feel great for lounging around and trying to steal wifi, but also extremely durable when you're out and about on your bike. Levi's made the crotch bomb proof, so say goodbye to biking issues. They fit wonderful as well, the classic 511 fit spot on. Sizing is true to Levi's sizing. I wear a size 32 in most Levi's and the 32 in these is perfect. Buy them, you will not be disappointed!
Great Pants! Wish they'd restock them!
Member since
Love these, keep trying to find more pairs but hard to come by. Great fit, durable material. My new favorite pants!
Great all around pant
Member since
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I bought a pair of these guys last year and recently doubled down on another. The Commuters are true to the 511 cut (skinny) so if you've worn a pair before, these will fit the same way, but better. The high back, reinforced seat, and slim legs make riding comfortable and the reflective cuffs are a nice bonus (how well it actually protects you is up for debate, i personally have yet to be side swiped by a car and would like to keep it that way).
As for wearing to work, the Commuters are great due to the trouser-esque back pockets. They wear like a trendier pair of dockers.
The water-repellent coating makes these pants my first choice for casual hikes and climbing. They wick a light sprinkle away nicely but do get soaked through for anything heavier. These are not technical dry-fit pants by any means but are great for light hikes when you know you may hit the bar afterwards and don't want to look like an outdoor wonk.
All said and done, these pants do it all.
