Short Embellished Strapless Dress with Pleating Style EJ2M2715 11 11
Vegas Wedding This dress was perfect for our Vegas wedding. I am 5'2" and needed something for a destination wedding. The pockets came in handy and everyone loved the dress! I tucked the straps inside during the wedding but used them later in the evening. Very convenient! Couldn't ask for a better gown!! August 8, 2013
Amazing Dress This was the first and only dress I tried on at 5 months pregnant that made me feel like a bride, and not an overdressed beach ball! (Could barely tell I was even pregnant!) The detail is beautiful, the fit was so flattering, and the length was perfect to dance and enjoy myself. The buttercream frosting to my wedding cake. ;-) June 19, 2013
So Happy! I purchased this dress a few weeks ago as my reception dress for our upcoming September wedding. I couldn't be happier with the dress and how it fit my personality. It pairs perfectly with my purple satin peep toe heels I plan to wear under my lace fit and flare wedding gown :) Great dress, at a great price! Try it on!! June 2, 2013
Perfect!! I am 5 feet tall and the dress was perfect for my cowboy/ country wedding. I bought it with a bolero from David's bridal too. Everybody loved the simplicity of the dress. April 23, 2013

Does this model have all of the necessary 2014 stamps for USSSA/ASA tournament play?
The Anderson Ignite FP: IFP Fastpitch is currently approved for play in ASA, USSSA, NSA and ISA.
Is this a composite or aluminum bat?
The Anderson Ignite FP: IFP Fastpitch is an aluminum bat.
I bought an Ignite from Justbats.com last season and was disappointed with it. It had no pop and had a very 'tinny' sound when hitting. My daughter didn't like it and I replaced it with a bat pack of 2 Easton CV12: SCR1B also from Justbats.com that were AWESOME out of the box. Does the Ignite require a break-in? Is that why we didn't like it? It is sitting collecting dust and could be brought back to life. I was new to fastpitch and didn't know anything about break-in when we bought it.
No, the Anderson Ignite FP: IFP Fastpitch bat will not require any period of break-in.
Product Description
The new Anderson Ignite fastpitch bat features a complete redesign of Anderson's popular single wall alloy technology. The Ignite is designed to maximize Anderson's all-metal alloy, with a shape that optimizes the player's swing. This new alloy has a greater yield value and added strength that allows a lighter, more responsive, and larger Effective Hitting Area (EHA). Reducing the weight in the EHA, while maintaining the strength necessary to withstand impact, allows for greater design versatility including a significantly reduced Moment of Inertia (MOI). Optimizing the MOI makes it possible for players to swing the bat faster, with less effort. The Ignite is topped off with a TrueFlex End Cap that is designed to increase barrel strength and aid in vibration managment. Also helping eliminate annoying vibrations is the TaperFlex Contour which uses a proprietary combination of design mapping and wall-thickness tuning to prevent energy from escaping the barrel. Furthermore, an SG-I Sport Grip absorbs any stray shockwaves that might make it down to the ultra-thin whip handle. All of this technology is used to efficiently manage energy transfer and produce the most explosive hits for fastpitch players! Anderson: Manufactured With Pride in the U.S.A.! The Ignite is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!

Sally Hawkins also stars in the film. If you haven't seen Hawkins in An Education or Happy-Go-Lucky, I strongly suggest that you do.

If you want to decompress the files from an archive to current directory by stripping all directory paths, use --transform option to strip path information. Unfortunately, --strip-components option is good if the target files have same and constant depth of folders.
The idea was taken from http://www.unix.com/solaris/145941-how-extract-files-tar-file-without-creating-directories.html
This is freaking sweet!!! Here is the full alias, (I didn't want to cause display problems on commandlinefu.com's homepage):
alias tarred='( ( D=`builtin pwd`; F=$(date +$HOME/`sed "s,[/ ],#,g" <<< ${D/${HOME}/}`#-%F.tgz); S=$SECONDS; tar --ignore-failed-read --transform "s,^${D%/*},`date +${D%/*}.%F`,S" -czPf "$"F "$D" && logger -s "Tarred $D to $F in $(($SECONDS-$S)) seconds" ) & )'
Creates a .tgz archive of whatever directory it is run from, in the background, detached from current shell so if you logout it will still complete. Also, you can run this as many times as you want, if the archive .tgz already exists, it just moves it to a numbered backup '--backup=numbered'. The coolest part of this is the transformation performed by tar and sed so that the archive file names are automatically created, and when you extract the archive file it is completely safe thanks to the transform command.
If you archive lets say /home/tombdigger/new-stuff-to-backup/ it will create the archive /home/#home#tombdigger#new-stuff-to-backup#-2010-11-18.tgz Then when you extract it, like tar -xvzf #home#tombdigger#new-stuff-to-backup#-2010-11-18.tgz instead of overwriting an existing /home/tombdigger/new-stuff-to-backup/ directory, it will extract to /home/tombdigger/new-stuff-to-backup.2010-11-18/
Basically, the tar archive filename is the PWD with all '/' replaced with '#', and the date is appended to the name so that multiple archives are easily managed. This example saves all archives to your $HOME/archive-name.tgz, but I have a $BKDIR variable with my backup location for each shell user, so I just replaced HOME with BKDIR in the alias.
So when I ran this in /opt/askapache/SOURCE/lockfile-progs-0.1.11/ the archive was created at /askapache-bk/#opt#askapache#SOURCE#lockfile-progs-0.1.11#-2010-11-18.tgz
Upon completion, uses the universal logger tool to output its completion to syslog and stderr (printed to your terminal), just remove that part if you don't want it, or just remove the '-s ' option from logger to keep the logs only in syslog and not on your terminal.
Here's how my syslog server recorded this..
2010-11-18T00:44:13-05:00 gravedigger.askapache.com (127.0.0.5) [user] [notice] (logger:) Tarred /opt/askapache/SOURCE/lockfile-progs-0.1.11 to /askapache-bk/tarred/#opt#SOURCE#lockfile-progs-0.1.11#-2010-11-18.tgz in 4 seconds
Really this is very robust and foolproof, the only issues I ever have with it (I've been using this for years on my web servers) is if you run it in a directory and then a file changes in that directory, you get a warning message and your archive might have a problem for the changed file. This happens when running this in a logs directory, a temp dir, etc.. That's the only issue I've ever had, really nothing more than a heads up.
This is a simple alias, and very useful as it works on basically every linux box with semi-current tar and GNU coreutils, bash, and sed.. But if you want to customize it or pass parameters (like a dir to backup instead of pwd), check out this function I use.. this is what I created the alias from BTW, replacing my aa_status function with logger, and adding $SECONDS runtime instead of using tar's --totals
function tarred ()
local GZIP='--fast' PWD=${1:-`pwd`} F=$(date +${BKDIR}/%m-%d-%g-%H%M-`sed -u 's/[\/\ ]/#/g'
[[ ! -r "$PWD" ]] && echo "Bad permissions for $PWD" 1>&2 && return 2;
( ( tar --totals --ignore-failed-read --transform "s@^${PWD%/*}@`date +${PWD%/*}.%m-%d-%g`@S" -czPf $F $PWD && aa_status "Completed Tarp of $PWD to $F" ) & )
#From my .bash_profile http://www.askapache.com/linux-unix/bash_profile-functions-advanced-shell.html
The J option is a recent addition to GNU tar. The xz compression utility is required as well.
Same, but count of signs is little less :) .
A *.tar.gz file needs to be unzipped & then untarred. Previously I might have unzipped first with
gunzip -d file.tar.gz
and then untarred the result with
tar -xvf file.tar
(Options are extract, verbose, file)
Using the -z (decompress) option on tar avoids the use of gzip (or gunzip) first.
Additionally the -C option will specify the directory to extract to.
This Anti-TarBomb function makes it easy to unpack a .tar.gz without worrying about the possibility that it will "explode" in your current directory. I've usually always created a temporary folder in which I extracted the tarball first, but I got tired of having to reorganize the files afterwards. Just add this function to your .zshrc / .bashrc and use it like this;
atb arch1.tar.gz
and it will create a folder for the extracted files, if they aren't already in a single folder.
This only works for .tar.gz, but it's very easy to edit the function to suit your needs, if you want to extract .tgz, .tar.bz2 or just .tar.
More info about tarbombs at http://www.linfo.org/tarbomb.html
Tested in zsh and bash.
UPDATE: This function works for .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .tgz, .tbz and .tar in zsh (not working in bash):
atb() { l=$(tar tf $1); if [ $(echo "$l" | wc -l) -eq $(echo "$l" | grep $(echo "$l" | head -n1) | wc -l) ]; then tar xf $1; else mkdir ${1%.t(ar.gz||ar.bz2||gz||bz||ar)} && tar xf $1 -C ${1%.t(ar.gz||ar.bz2||gz||bz||ar)}; fi ;}
UPDATE2: From the comments; bepaald came with a variant that works for .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .tgz, .tbz and .tar in bash:
atb() {shopt -s extglob ; l=$(tar tf $1); if [ $(echo "$l" | wc -l) -eq $(echo "$l" | grep $(echo "$l" | head -n1) | wc -l) ]; then tar xf $1; else mkdir ${1%.t@(ar.gz|ar.bz2|gz|bz|ar)} && tar xf $1 -C ${1%.t@(ar.gz|ar.bz2|gz|bz|ar)}; fi ; shopt -u extglob}
Simplicity tends to win out on commandlinefu.com Also, why type multiple filenames when range operators work too. Saves finger abuse and time and reduces the chances for mistakes.
tar doesn't support wildcard for unpacking (so you can't use tar -xf *.tar) and it's shorter and simpler than
for i in *.tar;do tar -xf $i;done (or even 'for i in *.tar;tar -xf $i' in case of zsh)
-i says tar not to stop after first file (EOF)
Using the COPYFILE_DISABLE=true environment variable you can prevent tar from adding any ._-files to your .tar-file on Mac OS X.
The following command finds all the files not modified in the last 5 days under /protocollo/paflow directory and creates an archive files under /var/dump-protocollo in the format of ddmmyyyy_archive.tar
This is a shortcut to tar up all files matching a wildcard. Tar doesn't have the --include (apparently).
if I need get olnly script.sh from "folder/script.sh"
You don't need to create an intermediate file, just pipe the output directly to tar command and use stin as file (put a dash after the f flag).

Muscle & Vintage Keychains & Keyrings
Muscle & Vintage Cars Keychains from the Internet's Number One Online Keychain Store
Vintage cars are said to cars manufactured between 1919 and 1930, although the Classic Car Club of America is strict in suggesting that the cut-off should be 1925. Regardless of the cut-off date, a vintage car qualifies as being such for more reasons than just the date of when it is manufactured - it is the look, the feel and the aura which makes classic car enthusiasts proud to own a vintage car. Likewise, in technical terms a muscle car refers to a high performance automobile produced between 1964 and 1973 that was manufactured in South Africa, Australia or America that also has a large engine displacement, despite that, cars such as the Pontiac GTO scream muscle car regardless of whether or not they meet the criteria.Wholesalekeychain.com sells both Muscle & Vintage car key chains and a variety of Muscle & Vintage car keychain products from different manufacturers. From Corvette to Mustang, we have the right Muscle & Vintage key chain for you.

Comments On Mar 27, 2013:I bought this for the K&N filter that came on my used YZ250f. Cleaned it up great and the oil was easy to spray on. Make sure you let it sit over night after oiling just to be safe!! The big problem I had was not with the recharging kit but the filter it's self. The K&N filters are just not good for dirt applications and I can't stress this enough. This one the previous owner had on it let in so much dirt that it clogged up my intake valves like crazy! The owner of a great motorcycle shop in town and I agree that stock filters are the way to go if the choice is between K&N or not. This kit works great if you have to clean your K&N... but if I were you I'd never buy one in the first place.

No one was surprised by Governor Rick Snyder's declaration of a financial emergency in Detroit, but now some council members say they plan to fight it. They feel they can fix the city's financial problems on their own.
"When I meet with the governor, I want to know what does he believe that an emergency manager can do that we can't do," said Council President Charles Pugh.
He sat in his office and watched the governor basically say the city council and the mayor have not done enough to fix Detroit's financial crisis, short-term cash burn and long-term debt.
Council members are not surprised about an emergency financial manager, but they say they plan to join forces with the mayor and do whatever possible to stop it during the ten day appeal process.
"It's not smoke and mirrors, but we really do believe that we can avoid emergency management and that there is a way to fix this without one person coming in and taking over the City of Detroit," Pugh said.
"Help us understand why if the plan you forced us to adopt is not working now, what you're going to do differently," said city council member Saunteel Jenkins.
What's next? Council members say they will meet with their fiscal consultant and present their plan to the state that will involve revising the current consent agreement, which the city has been working under since April. But is it too late? Governor Snyder felt that changes were not coming soon enough.
"We are losing money every day. We've stopped the gap just a little bit. I personally don't think we need an EM, but if an EM does come, we as council need to continue to be here," said council member Andre Spivey.
Council members we spoke to claimed a united front between the mayor and council is key right now, but when they went to reconvene after the governor's announcement, only Jenkins and Pugh showed up.
Jenkins admitted she might be in favor of an emergency manager if she knew any details on how one could turn the city's financial situation around, but to date she has seen no specifics.
"I haven't seen where an emergency manager has come in and solved the crisis. That's the first thing. The second thing is in the City of Detroit, we already have the experience of an EM in Detroit Public Schools. That has not produced any miracles," she said.
Council President Pro-Tem Gary Brown issued a statement that basically said he has not been supportive of an EFM because it eliminates the democratic process, but right now, in his view, he feels that council is not willing to make changes like altering the city charter, abandoning the privatization ordinance and supporting legislation to change the pension board. So he feels, at this point, an EFM is the only choice to implement those sort of changes.

On the death of her mother, Anstrudis reluctantly became abbess of the convent. Noted for her care for her sisters, her all night vigils, and her self-imposed austerities. Ebroin, mayor of the palace, viciously persecuted the Church of the day, and had her brother killed. He threatened Anstudis, but her simple faith won him over.

By Didi Benami, Hollywood.com Staff
Having gone through Hollywood Week myself, I can say that it was the most intense experience ever, even more so than American Idol itself. Everybody loses their voice, you're singing all the time, it's where you prove yourself. It's insane, and it's just the beginning.
This year, they separated the guys and the girls for separate weeks in Hollywood. But the real twist is that the producers assigned people to groups rather than having them pick their own. I have no idea why they did that I wonder how they ended up grouping everyone together. It seemed like it was pretty fair, and it actually was more of an advantage to the singers. It's really difficult when you're trying to choose somebody so fast and you don't know anybody there. You just form a group and sometimes there are no similarities whatsoever.
I was really impressed with a lot of kids. Micah, Elijah, Curtis Finch Jr. he reminded me of Joshua Ledet. Wow, that guy's got some serious soul. Lazaro, though he makes me cry every time I see him perform. He's so grateful and so sweet, and he just doesn't even know how good he is. He does something to your soul. He's grateful and he's thankful. He's like the embodiment of hope and inspiration and it's really sweet to see somebody being so fearless and going forward. It's a really beautiful thing.
RELATED: Colton Dixon Blogs the 'American Idol' Season 12 Premiere
The way Lazaro's fellow group members acted when they didn't get through was terrible. It broke my heart. I couldn't believe there were really people like that in the world. I didn't want to see it. Watching Kayden go home really broke my heart, too. He was really sweet. He stood out to me, and I was really sad to see him go. I thought that whole group was really sweet.
It's really amazing to see these really triumphant kids regardless of what they're going through. It's probably so hard to have something that heavy to deal with in your everyday life. There are some really great stories and some really inspirational stories like Lazaro but I want to hear everybody sing.
I think that real voices come from a place of pain, and that doesn't necessarily mean you have to share your story on television. I think music comes from somewhere that's really, really deep and extraterrestrial. It's something that just pours out of your body and it's something that moves you and gives you chill bumps and makes your heart beat fast. It's something that makes you feel. That's what I really appreciate, anyway. A lot of good singers just have that because of whatever they've been through.
RELATED: 'American Idol' Recap: Yeah, Dude Looks Like a Lady
Although I was sad to see Kayden go home, I understood what he went through. I auditioned two times before I actually made it through, so I had to develop and get better. I didn't make it past the first round, and then I made it all the way through to the top 10. You try and try and try again, and if you don't get through, it's probably because you're not ready and it's not because you're bad. I still feel like I maybe wasn't ready yet! It's crazy how much you develop even after that show.
It's a tough time, but I also have some great memories from Hollywood Week. I met Crystal Bowersox and Lee DeWyze sitting outside on the very first day. I remember when Siobhan Magnus fell down and skinned her knees and she had spider orange tights on. There was so much going on, and it was really, really fun.
During our season we all got along really well. I think for anybody who does any season it's just a crazy experience. Having the same goal and dream as everybody, we're like gladiators fighting against each other. Keith Urban was right it's like the Hunger Games. But you make so many great friends and you don't want to see them go!

Design Process for High Line Officially Begins
Friends of the High Line and City of New York Release
Request for Qualifications (RFQ)
Design Master Plan to be Created in 12 Months
Efforts to reclaim the High Line, an unused 1.5-mile-long elevated rail structure on Manhattan's West Side, took a major step forward today, when Friends of the High Line (FHL) and the City of New York jointly began a process to select the design team that will create a master plan for the High Line's conversion to public open space.
Specifically, FHL, in conjunction with the New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC), released a Request for Qualifications (RFQ), asking that groups of architects, landscape architects, urban designers, engineers, horticulturists, and other professionals form teams and submit written applications to be considered to design the High Line master plan.
Responses to the RFQ are due April 1, 2004. To view the RFQ, go to:
All questions about the RFQ should be e-mailed to
or faxed to (212) 206-9118 by Monday, March 15. Answers will by posted on the RFQ Web site on Monday, March 22.
Design Team Selection Process and Timeline
The release of the RFQ begins the selection process for a team to design the High Line master plan, with a design team to be identified by mid-summer 2004:
March 1, 2004: RFQ issued
April 1, 2004: RFQ responses due
Mid-April 2004: 5-7 teams receive Request for Proposals (RFP)
May – June 2004: RFP responses due
July – August 2004: Design team selection
RFQ Requirements
The RFQ indicates that teams should be led by a firm specializing one of the three principle areas of expertise required for the project: architecture, landscape architecture, and urban design. Other areas of expertise relevant to the project include but are not limited to: engineering, public art, lighting, horticulture, recreation, New York City building codes, and cost estimating.
Responses to the RFQ must include a 2-page statement of project design approach; a team description/organizational chart; and background on qualifications and previous work of team members.
A precise and complete description of submission requirements is included in the RFQ, which can be downloaded at:
Evaluation Criteria
All RFQ responses will be evaluated with a focus on these key selection criteria:
Demonstrated design excellence
Vision and feasibility of stated project approach
The experience of the architecture firm, landscape architecture firm, or urban design firm leading the team
Team balance between established and emerging professionals
Experience in the design, development, and completion of a public and/or cultural development project of not less than $25 million in total construction costs
Experience in development in New York City that demonstrates understanding of the applicable standards and regulations that will apply to this type of adaptive reuse project; inter-agency coordination and utility coordination; and securing necessary City, State, and Federal permits and approvals
Demonstrated ability to engage the community and the greater public in the design process
Experience in multidisciplinary teams and expertise in all necessary disciplines as defined by the team
Proven track record of timely and cost-effective project management, including meeting deadlines consistently, remaining within project budgets, and working collaboratively with other teams
FHL and City to Jointly Run Design Process
The release of the RFQ results from an agreement between FHL and the City of New York to jointly select a design team and create a master plan. FHL and City staff will administer the process with oversight from a steering committee comprised of FHL appointments and City representatives. An advisory committee representing community and public interests and elected officials will consult with the selected design team on a regular basis as the master plan is developed. Public engagement will be actively encouraged at open public planning sessions.
RFQ Follows City Support and Ideas Competition
FHL has worked since 1999 to reclaim the High Line for reuse as public open space. In December 2002, the City of New York declared its support for the project by filing to use federal "rail-banking" legislation to create a public open space on the High Line.
From January to July 2003, FHL conducted an open, international ideas competition, "Designing the High Line", soliciting innovative design proposals for the High Line. Because it was an ideas competition, "Designing the High Line" was not structured to identify an individual or team to be awarded a High Line design contract. Entries did not have to be practical or realistic. Rather, entrants were encouraged to be bold and forward-thinking—to create visions as unique and unexpected as the High Line itself. The competition was sponsored and run by FHL without City oversight.
In contrast, the RFQ is being jointly issued by FHL and the City and will ultimately lead to the selection of a design team that will be contracted to create a master plan for the High Line. While it is hoped that the master plan will embody the creative innovation of the ideas competition, the final master plan must be constructable, maintainable, and economically rational. The design team selection process and the development of a master plan will reflect those requirements.
Entrants to the "Designing the High Line" competition are encouraged to respond to the RFQ, and if they do, they will be assessed according to same criteria as all other RFQ respondents. For instance, emerging professionals might need to partner with more established firms in order to meet selection criteria.
Project Issues
The conversion of the High Line to public open space must still pass several important milestones before construction can actually begin. The Surface Transportation Board (STB), the federal body with jurisdiction over the Line's future, must grant a Certificate of Interim Trail Use (CITU), permitting the railroad that currently owns the High Line to negotiate a trail use agreement with the City of New York. In addition, endorsements from the State of New York are still sought for the project.
City, State, and Federal Funding for the High Line
The High Line project has received significant funding allocations from the City of New York, the State of New York, and the federal government.
In July 2003, New York City Council Speaker Gifford Miller announced a $15.75 million capital funding commitment to the project.
In August 2003, New York State Assembly Member Richard Gottfried announced a $50,000 funding commitment to the project.
In January 2004, $500,000 in federal funds were committed to the project in the 2004 Transportation Appropriations Bill, thanks to a successful request by Senators Charles Schumer and Hillary Rodham Clinton and Representative Jerrold Nadler.
Additional funds are anticipated from public and private sources in the future.

FHL Legal Update
Dear High Line supporters,
We'd like to give you an important legal update. Yesterday an appeals court overturned a FHL victory that two years ago stopped a High Line demolition proposal from going forward. But since the Bloomberg administration now endorses the High Line project – and the administration reaffirmed its commitment to High Line reuse when responding to yesterday's news – we're confident that the ruling will not hinder our efforts to create a great new public space on the High Line.
Some news reports have made it sound like the High Line is imminent danger of being torn down because of this ruling. This is not the case. A statement from the City Law Department yesterday makes this quite clear. "The decision does not change the City's efforts to preserve the High Line as a public amenity," said Jeffrey D. Friedlander, First Assistant Corporation Counsel.
The ruling grows out of legal challenge FHL filed to stop a demolition proposal developed during the previous mayoral administration. Since that time the Bloomberg administration has changed the City's policy to one that favors preservation of the High Line for reuse as public open space and has been working actively alongside Friends of the High Line to move the project forward.
The Appellate Division's ruling does not pose an immediate threat to the High Line, given the City's strong support for the project. If, however, the City's policy were to change, this ruling might allow it to commit to demolish the structure without going through the Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP), which requires review by the City Council, the Borough President, and the Community Boards.
FHL is reviewing the appeals court ruling and considering possible recourse. Meanwhile FHL will continue to work with the City of New York to create a legal structure and a design master plan for the High Line's conversion to public open space.
In late 2001, the final days of the Giuliani administration, the City of New York signed onto a proposal that would allow the High Line to be demolished. FHL challenged the City's participation in that proposal, asserting that ULURP, a mandatory public review process, had been bypassed. FHL was joined in its challenge by the New York City Council, the Manhattan Borough President, and six local business-owners and residents. In March 2002, a New York State Supreme Court Justice ruled in FHL's favor, finding that the demolition process was indeed required to go through ULURP. The ruling effectively stopped the demolition process from moving forward. Demolition proponents and the City of New York appealed. On January 15, 2004, the Appellate Division of the New York State Supreme court overturned the March 2002 decision.
Continuing Bipartisan City Support
The City of New York has shown strong bipartisan support for the High Line's preservation and reuse ever since filing in late 2002 for the start of rail-banking (the federal process that allows out-of-use rail lines to be converted to public open space). In July 2003, it presented bipartisan joint testimony in favor of rail-banking to the Surface Transportation Board by City Council Speaker Gifford Miller, Deputy Mayor Daniel Doctoroff, and City Planning Commission Chair Amanda Burden. That same month, Speaker Miller announced a $15.75 funding capital funding commitment to the project.
FHL is confident that the City's enthusiastic support for the High Line project will continue regardless of the Appellate Division's ruling. The City appealed the March 2002 decision even after it changed its policy to one favoring the High Line's reuse because of the decision's potential to become a precedent in cases unrelated to the High Line.

About Track Heads
: FHL is launching Track Heads, a new series of High Line get-togethers, to give everyone with an interest in the High Line an opportunity to meet other supporters, FHL staff, and the exciting creative individuals who are part of this historic effort. Track Heads events are not fundraisers but social gatherings designed to be fun, interesting, and casual. FHL will try to keep Track Heads events free or at a discounted price. "Track Heads" is a railroad term. It refers to the top of the rail, where the steel meets the wheels.
About Joel Sternfeld
: Many FHL supporters know Sternfeld for his High Line images, but the work of this great American photographer over the last 30 years has encompassed a global range of subjects. "American Prospects and Before" presents gorgeous, new, large-format prints of his celebrated photographs of the American landscape in the late 1970s and early 1980s. For information on Sternfeld and this exhibition, go to
About Marquee
: Noah Tepperberg's and Jason Strauss's just-opened lounge on 10th Avenue, backing up to the High Line, was designed by Philip Johnson/Alan Ritchie Architects and has been regularly mentioned in New York social columns because of its high-profile clientele. Marquee will be opening its Red Room early on Wednesday, January 28, and offering half-price drinks just for this gathering.
Upcoming Track Heads Events
: For upcoming months, Track Heads events will include drinks and dinner at Florent, the beloved restaurant in the Gansevoort Market Historic District, ice-skating at Chelsea Piers, a visit to the Armory Show (the International Fair of New Art), roller-skating at the Roxy, a picnic in Hudson River Park, and a boat tour on the historic John J. Harvey fireboat. We hope that these will give everyone interested in the High Line a chance to meet the other great people who support this exciting urban open-space project.

Say Good Night to Insomnia
By Nina Zolotow
You've tried it all—chamomile tea, hot baths, aromatherapy, melatonin—and nothing works. Your insomnia obviously calls for something a little stronger than a glass of warm milk. In fact, you need something that packs a bit more punch, but you don't want to resort to sleep medications. Good news: Sleep researcher Roger Cole, PhD, from Del Mar, California, recommends two powerful, natural sleep therapies that have helped many insomniacs drift off peacefully to dreamland.
Resetting your body clock
If you have difficulty falling asleep at night and waking up in the morning, try dawn/dusk simulation, a form of sleep therapy that resets your body clock. Your body uses natural signals, including sunlight and darkness, to trigger hormones that make you active in the morning and sleepy at night. Bright light, particularly morning sunlight, provides the strongest signal the body uses to regulate this hormonal cycle, called your circadian rhythm. So if you typically awaken before sunrise or work in artificially lit environments, your circadian rhythm may have gotten out of sync. Using a light box may help you reset it.
Here's how to do it: Spend the first half hour of each morning in simulated "dawn," by sitting in front of a light box. You can do this while you eat your breakfast, read the paper, or go about your morning routine. Before bed, spend time in simulated "dusk" by closing the curtains and keeping lights dim. This combination should reset your clock within a few days.
If sleep problems continue, wake up and use your light box a half hour earlier for a few days. Cole says eventually you'll hit a "magic sleep spot." Once you do, you should be able to discontinue the therapy. But people who are true night owls may need to keep using both dawn and dusk simulation indefinitely to stay on their new schedules.
Cole recommends a light box that delivers 10,000 lux at a distance of at least 20 inches. A large field of view (at least 18" wide) is a plus, and a box that gives white light with an extra boost of blue or blue-green may be more effective than a plain white box.
Sleep restriction
If you have trouble falling and staying asleep, and spend time tossing and turning, sleep restriction therapy may be the ticket. This therapy is based on the theory that although your body may have learned to get along without sleep, it's actually possible for you to retrain it.
Start by estimating how much sleep you typically get each night, as opposed to how many hours you stay awake in bed hoping for sleep (say five hours of sleep for seven in bed). Stay in bed only for the amount of time you usually sleep (the five hours), scheduling your bedtime and wake-up time appropriately (say, 1 a.m. to 6 a.m.). Meanwhile, use your bedroom for sleeping only (and for, well, you know). And no fair taking mid-day naps.
If you do wake up during the night, lie awake in bed no more than 15 minutes. Then leave the bedroom, stay warm, and engage in a ...

Can a non-catholic be "the one"
I have recently been in a struggle with the decision to move foward with a relationship. I started a friendship with a man 5 months ago and it has eventually turned into a very serious attractiveness. I would even go as far to say that he is "the one". The only problem is that he is not Catholic. He had a very hard childhood and grew up with no religion. As the case with many people in this country, he doesn't believe in organized religion. I know that I will not enter into any sort of commitment with a man who is not catholic because I choose to raise my children Catholic with my husband being the leader. But after much reflection and prayer, I can't help but believe that there is some reason for me to be in his life, and vice versa. I am very confused at this point and the decision on taking this relationship further needs to be made. Since I have this wonderful resource of Catholicmatch, I thought I would take a shot at it. Any suggestions?
