If you are heading to Hawaii in the next couple of weeks, you should pay special attention to the weather. Right now there is a category 3 hurricane headed toward Hawaii, and with hurricanes you never know the exact track of the storm they are very unpredictable. The forcasters I heard said that the storm is expected to get stronger, as it is in open very warm water, and that's not good news.
Track will take it close to Hawaii by Monday or Tuesday of next week.
Hopefully it will fizzle out before it hits land, let's all pray for that.
MAJOR hurricane heading toward Hawaii

Okay, I am scheduled to arrive for our vacation on Sunday. I have no experience with this. Should I assume the flight will be cancelled? Was busy planning snorkel excursion when I saw the weather. Should I cancel the whole trip while I can still get some money back, or am I jumping to conclusions. It sounds scary.

I live in Austin, TX and watch News 8 Austin. This morning during the weather forecast the hurricane headed in the direction of Hawaii was talked about. The hurricane is going to lose strength before it gets to Hawaii.
Also I went to www.weather.com and I copy/pasted this from the Hurricane Felicia headline:
"Felicia is forecast to make a turn in a more westerly direction this weekend, while encountering dry air and shearing winds aloft. This will likely quickly weaken the system through this weekend, with it nearing or passing just south of the Big Island of Hawaii early next week as a weak tropical storm or tropical depression.
At this time it appears any impacts, if any, to Hawaii will be minimal, and would not occur until later Monday." -

OK, if the hurricane comes in & really messes things up right before our trip (Aug 19), I will feel like I'm the "kiss of death", so to speak. We are coming in for our 25th anniversary. For our 5th anniversary, we planned a trip to St. Croix. A few days before we were scheduled to leave, Hurrican Hugo whipped thru & destroyed our hotel, plus much of the island (the worst storm in their history). I will be praying harder than anyone, I think. This can't happen to us twice!!!

hawaiivirgin, I think your trip is far enough away that it will be fine. I am scheduled to fly to maui this sunday! I don't know if planes will even fly in/out in that kind of weather. I am picturing planes that can't leave and hotel guests stuck, and a general mess. louistraveler5 thanks for posting the weather link. I am going to watch it all day before I make a decision. Even if it misses, it sounds like I will be in for a rainy week. ugh. (Of course, wishing the islands and islanders all safety, first)
Report Abuse
When I posted this the Hurricane was gaining strength, so I'm so glad we scared the Hurricane out of the water, so to say, lol. Last night it was a category 4, so thankfully it sounds like it will be wearing itself out over the next few days,,,,,,,phew.

Which island are you going to? That may make a difference.
Here's the most recent Weather Channel prediction.
Do you have trip insurance? You probably won't need it, but just in case...... Good luck. -
Report Abuse
going to maui and kaui...no insurance...can get refund on some of it...still undecided...even if it "misses" it will be rainy. was so looking forward to sunny hawaii. will probably have to decide between no hawaii or rainy hawaii.
Report Abuse
If you look at the 10 day forecast for Maui, you'll see the highest chance of rain is 50%...and for several days it's only 30% or 40%. So that means that it's more likely to NOT rain than it is to rain. The chance of rain in Kauai is slightly higher though still maxes out at 50%.
Sounds like a no brainer to me...if you can't get all your money back, a rainy Hawaii is far better than no Hawaii. Why spend all that money and *not* go??
Can you delay your trip a week or two with less of a financial impact? -
Report Abuse
beanweb, where did you see that forecast? I saw percentages of 70 -100% on forecast.weather.gov
I believe I can salvage the airfare and kauai hotel (the most expensive parts...but not the maui hotel)
still really want to go!!
mostly concerned about flying through that weather (sunday arrival). also, going all that way and not doing road to hana, halekala due to wind or water or something.
I can bump the trip up a little bit, but I have to figure out how to do that. -

I have traveled before and after a hurricane and its not pretty..lots of friends lost homes and businesses during Iniki on 9-11-92..it took them years to recover and Kauai too.
We are going to Kauai the first week of September..haven't booked..still waiting for prices to drop...its almost $800 rt from SD to LIH..
May it pass away from the islands..this is the last thing Hawaii needs right now. -
Report Abuse
I was checking weather.com.
I agree that traveling before/after a hurricane is not pretty, but the current forecast is that the activity in Hawaii will be more along the lines of a tropical storm and not a hurricane.
Your flight might be a bit bumpy, but the airlines will not fly if it is unsafe. You can always call your airline now and see what their current stance is. -

hawaiivirgin- i feel your pain! my husband and i had been in two hurricaines and a tropical storm and had always had bad weather on every trip before we were married. so when were planning our honeymoon my mom wanted to give us the $$ to go st thomas we told her no as it was hurricaine season- sept 9, 1989. so we went to hawaii like every other CA honeymooners and had perfect weather- not even afternoon rain. however we were walking down street in maui and saw hurricaine hugo hits st thomas!! had to call mom!! and of course iniki hit on our 3rd anniversary but we weren't there. have spent probbaly half of our 20 anniversaries in hawaii with no problems. we are going to kauai sept 3rd for our 20th so we'll see. hopefully gods will be with us- it got so bad for awhile freinds wouldn't travel with us or we're asking where we were going for vacation so they went somewhere far far away!

LMAO, toncasmo!! Well, it's looking like we'll be OK, as the storm should be long gone by the 19th. I just hope it won't leave damage behind in it's wake. They don't need that on top of the economy.
Rebecca, I will keep my fingers crossed for your vacation! Hey, it's a hurricane, you never know what it will decide to do at the last minute. -

I'm still watching the weather and hoping for the best. I was supposed to book tours today, but didn't. Boat rides will be out, but can the road to hana be done in the rain? What about Halelekala ?

I live on Oahu and I'm not at all concerned about the looming storm coming our way. I welcome it! We need the rain and the wind! Cools things down, cleans things up and makes it all green again.
As for doing things in the rain - well, it's always raining somewhere on these islands so you just sort of plan for it. I would LOVE to do Haleakala in the rain. It would be beautiful to see it like that.
RebeccaNJ - thank your lucky stars that rain is coming for the road to Hana - it will make the dozens of waterfalls that much more spectacular. No rain lately, so they are not really as beautiful as they are after a good rain!
That being said - if we do get a lot of rain, stay out of the ocean. Storm run-off is not good to swim in and can bring out the predators in murky water. And stay out of rivers as well - flash floods can hit and sweep you out to sea. This happens a lot here.
Check with this local news station for good updates: http://www.kitv.com/index.html
They keep up to minute with the news more than the Honolulu Advertiser does.
Again, I wouldn't be too concerned. It will probably be stormy and rainy but that does bring a whole new way of seeing things here.

I am also leaving for Maui this Sunday and was looking forward to snorkeling, luau, Road to Hana, and Haleakala. I'm slightly irritated right now because of this. But it's a good thing I got a heads up by checking out the weather online. I'm hoping it won't be as bad as the weather forecasts...but still! =\

If it keeps going toward Big Island, Big Island will be the only island really affected. The other islands may get a little needed rain. The massive Big Island mountains will knock the hurricanes winds down fast.
If it veers south of the Big Island then any island could get hit if it then takes a northern track after passing Big Island as Iniki did.
If it veers north of the Big Island, then it will be in cooler water & weaken & just bring needed rain to all islands. -

I follow the weather forecasts of Glenn James, whose website is recommended above by martym. His latest word is that Maui will get a good soaking Monday and Tuesday, with fair weather expected to return by Wednesday. Good news for me, since I'll be arriving on Aug 18th for a short stay. The rain is good news for Maui, though. I have never seen things so brown and dry as on my last visit in January.
Report Abuse
We leave tomorrow for Kauai - Poipu to be exact - I don't know with it being the farthest north if there will be less impact. Just not looking forward to being stuck in a hotel room with a 7 & 4 year old.
I agree about being irritated - this is our "big" trip for the summer and when have been looking forward to it since school got out in May. However we have spent the last 2 summers in Costa Rica during the start of their rainy season and were even impacted a bit by Hurrican Dean, but it never kept us from doing what we wanted to. -

We were in Princeville in Dec of 91 when a 'weak' tropical storm hit, it killed 5 due to flooding. Iniki deaths were limited to 6 partially because people were prepared and remembered what happened just months earlier. Anyways the main road washed out and trapped people on both sides, the Princeville resort(Class Act) allowed people to sleep in their lobby that night and the next.

I have been following the weather reports of Glenn James, too, all day yesterday and today. I have not cancelled yet, but will most likely do so. My flight is tomorrow, and I was supposed to be in Maui until Thursday. I am thinking that I will be stuck in the hotel until Wed and that the ocean will be too rough all week to ever get in it. I have been looking forward to this trip, as well. I am hoping to take the plane credit and use it to go to Hawaii another time. However, for me, that won't be until at least April or maybe next summer (sigh). I would rather go when I can see the Maui I've been dreaming about. Anyway, my husband had already asked for the time off, and this is it, our vacation time, so now we are scambling to figure out where we can go. We live in NJ and would like to drive somewhere. We have already explored New England thoroughly, and are thinking of just getting in the car and driving south. We have never seen the beaches of either North or South Carolina and really want to do a "beach" somewhere! Anywhere! Is it just too crazy hot down South this time of year? Always wanted to see Charleston and the Sea Islands. I want to see something "different" than NJ, as much as I like the Jersey Shore. Trying to make the best of the situation, lemon out of lemonaid. I am glad the people of Hawaii will be safe.

I truly wish I were getting on a plane to Maui tomorrow morning. From what I've read the storm is weakening and not expected until mon/tues and may have weakened to a tropical depression by then.

By the islands do you mean the Caribbean? I thought about that, but would rather save the plane "credit" to go to Hawaii later (I paid a lot). It looks like we will be doing a "road trip", which we haven't done since we were in our early twenties (we are late thirties now. It is a strange situation, we can basically drive anywhere, we basically have a wide open free 10-12 days, which never happens, and I guess the open road. Don't want to waste the time, want to see something, anything! Want to feel like I got out of NJ this summer (love NJ, but have wander lust)

I think we're just gonna suck it up and go. We've been looking forward to this trip (five of us) and we've booked our luau and everything. So why the heck not, right? We'll be there 'til the following Monday so hopefully we can make up some lost time from the rain.

safe journey isabeiny! I would go in a heartbeat. The storm is likely to just be a bit of weather. There may or may not be some big rain. But rain and paradise are a requirement to make rainbows and waterfalls. I was sad to hear people canceling their dream vacation. But then I adore weather and some require that the long journey guarentees sunshine and swimmable beaches.
I wish you grand adventures and fond memories in the making. such an exciting time to visit the islands, all wet and lush and rejuvinated. -

Don't cancel your trip!!!! Just got back from 3 weeks. 2 weeks on Kauai and 1 week on the big island. Weather or no weather it is beautiful. We were on Kauai where it rained for 15 hours straight on north and east side as well as inland. Headed to the west shore beaches and had a great day. Beautiful rainbows and waterfalls. The storm will be over before you knoiw it.

Thank you very much! I am really excited now that the weather isn't as bad as I imagined it would be. You're right; without rain, we'd have no rainbows and waterfalls!
P.S. I do hope the Road to Hana would be safe to take, yes? -

You can check Maui road conditions online or by telephone while you are on the island. The Maui News (daily paper) will have info, also. I would wait a couple days after major rainfall and/or windstorm to do the drive. It is not uncommon for overflowing streams to lead to bridge closures and mud or debris on road. Give crews a chance to clean things up, then go enjoy those beautiful waterfalls.

party on Isabeiny! Check the locals for road conditions, but a bit of rain is normal or rather hoped for on the road to Hana. Hope you have grand adventures. I just cannot imagine cancelling a trip under these conditions. But then again, I am from New England where weather changes like the weather!

Hey everyone! I'm back from my trip to Maui and JUST as we'd prayed...there was no storm. It drizzled every now and then (think sprinklers on your lawn) and didn't last for more than an hour.

Yankee Stadium, Bronx, New York
Not over just yet: Cano's RBI single lifts Yanks, but Jeter injures hand
NEW YORK -- Next up, a nostalgic goodbye for Yankee Stadium. And there's no way Derek Jeter is going to miss it.
Robinson Cano hit an RBI single with two outs in the ninth inning and the New York Yankees avoided playoff elimination Saturday, beating the Baltimore Orioles 1-0 moments after Jeter was injured.Playing what is almost sure to be the penultimate game at Yankee Stadium, New York got a perfect inning from Mariano Rivera (6-5) and a fine start by impressive rookie Alfredo Aceves.But it was a painful victory. Jeter left after getting hit on the hand by a pitch in the ninth, which started the winning rally. X-rays were negative and he said he'll play in the ballpark's farewell game Sunday night."I don't need to ask," manager Joe Girardi said. "It's not broken. It's sore."The Red Sox lost 6-3 in Toronto, so the Yankees cut Boston's AL wild-card lead to 6½ games with seven to play.A New York loss combined with a Boston win would have knocked the Yankees out of contention, assuring they'd miss a postseason for the first time since 1993. New York's run of 13 straight playoff berths began in '95, a year after a labor dispute between players and owners led to the postseason being canceled.So the Yankees are still alive -- barely. They could be eliminated Sunday with a loss and a Boston win, which would put a damper on all the festivities planned for the 85-year-old ballpark in its regular-season finale."It's a must-win for this club because we are still alive," Girardi said. "You want a win because that'll close out the building and that's significant."Andy Pettitte will pitch for the Yankees before a national television audience. Next season, New York will move into a $1.3 billion palace being built across the street."One of the things that you learn very young is about the history and tradition, so I'm very happy Andy's starting," Jeter said.Brian Burres was even better than Aceves, shutting down the Yankees on three hits through seven innings. The lefty walked none in his first start since Aug. 31.Jim Miller (0-2) struck out two in a 1-2-3 eighth before plunking Jeter on the left hand to begin the ninth. Jeter jumped away in pain, then let his arm dangle by his side as he was checked by a trainer.Quickly removed from the game, Jeter tossed his helmet in the dugout before disappearing up the runway -- a rare display of frustration for one of baseball's most poised players."It doesn't feel good," he said.Jeter was hit on the same hand by a pitch from Baltimore's Daniel Cabrera in May. The Yankees' captain wears a protective pad on the outside of his batting glove, but he appeared to get hit flush.Pinch-runner Brett Gardner stole second and Bobby Abreu was intentionally walked. Alex Rodriguez hit a potential double-play grounder to second, but shortstop Juan Castro's relay to first was wide.A-Rod swiped second as Jason Giambi struck out against Jamie Walker, and Xavier Nady was intentionally walked to load the bases.Benched earlier in the week for not hustling on defense, Cano lined Walker's next pitch on one hop into center and was mobbed by excited teammates on the infield. By the time the ball reached the outfield, Walker had slammed his glove to the ground."I've never done that. I apologize for that," Walker said. "I'll have to deal with my kids on that one."The 25-year-old Aceves yielded five hits in six innings in his third major league start, all strong outings this month. New York has won four straight and seven of eight.The Orioles dropped to 2-19 in their last 21 one-run games and have lost 24 of 31 overall."I'll take the good starting pitching every time," manager Dave Trembley said. "Obviously, it's been an area where we have been improving. That's a real positive. I have no problem with the effort that this team has been displaying every night."Game notes
Baltimore is 0-10-1 in its past 11 season series against the Yankees. ... Girardi and Yankees OF Johnny Damon played ball with their kids on the field after the game. ... In a video recorded at his home, longtime public address announcer Bob Sheppard pulled a lever that reduced the Yankee Stadium countdown to one game. The sight of Sheppard, who has missed the entire season recuperating from an illness, drew a roar from the sellout crowd of 54,662. ... Jeter was the DH and Cody Ransom started at shortstop. ... It was New York's first 1-0 victory at Yankee Stadium since June 13, 2006, against Cleveland.

Read More Shangri-La, Mark Knopfler's fourth solo release and his first since breaking his collarbone, shoulder, and seven ribs in a motorcycle crash in March 2003, finds the eternally laid-back Dire Straits frontman in familiar territory. Instead of constructing a song cycle about his brush with mortality -- the wry "Don't Crash the Ambulance" aside -- he uses his warm baritone and effortless guitar work to ruminate on everything from the plight of the modern fisherman -- the beautiful and rustic "Trawlerman's Song" -- to the entrepreneurial skills of McDonald's founder Ray Kroc ("Boom, Like That"). Knopfler has more or less abandoned the British folk and Celtic-influenced pop that began to surface on his previous two recordings, opting instead for a full-blown yet quiet and considerate collection of country-folk ballads and bluesy, midtempo dirges that revel in their uncharacteristic sparseness -- one of the better examples of the latter is the gutsy, backwoods boxing tale "Song for Sonny Liston." Knopfler spent seven months away from the guitar in physiotherapy, but his melancholic slow-burn tone is as peat-smoked as ever, and his penchant for wrapping Americana-gothic folk around subjects that are uniquely English -- colliers, cockneys, the one-armed bandit man who meets his maker in the atmospheric opener, "5:15 A.M." -- is evident throughout. Dynamically, Shangri-La loses steam about three-quarters of the way through -- the cringe-inducing "Whoop De Doo" and the sweet but dull "All That Matters" bring things to a sleepy halt -- but Knopfler fans and lovers of Chet Atkins, Gordon Lightfoot, and J.J. Cale, as well as late-night poker players and early risers with an acerbic streak, will find much to love here. [A version of Shangri-La containing a bonus DVD/DVA is also available.] ~ James Christopher Monger, Rovi Read Less

US 5182812 A Abstract A garment adapted to be worn by individuals to assist in weight reduction by reducing body fat. The garment is constructed in various sizes for use by various sized individuals and constructed in a model for use by males and a model for use by females. The garment includes readily attachable and detachable components to facilitate use of the garment and to enable certain portions of the human anatomy to be reduced while other portions are not. The garment is constructed of three layers of material with the inner layer being an absorbent fabric such as cotton, the middle or central layer being a flexible moisture impervious sheet such as vinyl and the outer layer being an attractive, breatheable and elastic-type fabric material such as terry cloth or other wash and wear fabric materials with the garment being launderable and effective for maintaining body heat which assists in reduction of body fat during exercise periods and the like.
Claims(1) 1. A weight reducing garment comprising a hollow flexible member adapted to enclose a portion of the human anatomy, said member including an inner layer of absorbent cotton fabric, a middle layer of air and moisture impervious flexible vinyl plastic and an outer layer of fabric to enable the garment to be worn without observation of the inner and middle layers with the inner layer absorbing body perspiration and the middle layer retaining body heat to subject the portion of the body enclosed by the flexible member to body heat, said hollow flexible member including an upper torso enclosing area and a lower pants portion with the lower end of the upper torso enclosing area being disposed externally of an upper end of the lower pants portion and the upper torso enclosing area including a hood, and sleeves and the lower pants portion including legs, flexible hook and loop pile fastener material detachable connecting the hood, sleeves and legs and detachably connecting a lower end of the upper torso area with an upper end of the lower pants portion while maintaining the imperviousness of the middle layer, the ends of the sleeves and the ends of the legs having knit cuffs thereon for snugly embracing the wrist and ankle areas of the wearer.
Description 1. Field of the Invention The present invention generally relates to a layered reducing garment completely or partially enclosing the human body except for the face, hands and feet with certain of the components such as the legs, sleeves and hood on the garment being easily attached and detached to render the garment universal in use in reducing body fat by retaining body heat interiorly of the garment while it is being worn. The garment includes an inner layer of absorbent fabric, a middle layer of flexible vinyl and an outer layer of fabric material such as terry cloth or the like. 2. Description of the Prior Art Various types of garments have been provided for use by individuals when jogging, exercising and the like which are quite attractive and capable of general utility. Such garments are usually relatively loose fitting and constructed of stretchable material to enable freedom of movement of the person wearing the garment. Also, there have been provided garments or partial garments constructed of air impervious and moisture impervious material but such garments usually cling to the surface of the skin due to perspiration which produces an objectionable clammy feeling and such garments are also relatively unattractive and usually are not worn in public. The following patents are exemplary of the development of the state of the art relating to this invention: ______________________________________2,020,155 Nov. 5, 19352,543,327 Feb. 27, 19513,858,028 Dec. 31, 19743,999,037 Dec. 21, 19764,117,552 Oct. 3, 19784,195,364 Apr. 1, 1980______________________________________ An object of the present invention is to provide a garment constructed of layers of material stitched or otherwise secured together in superimposed contacting relation and consisting of an inner layer of flexible, soft, absorbent fabric such as cotton, an outer layer of attractive, flexible, preferably elasticized fabric such as terry cloth or the like and a middle layer of flexible, air impervious, moisture impervious plastic sheeting or material such a vinyl with all of the layers of material being capable of stitching or sewing in a conventional manner and easily launderable. Another object of the invention is to provide a garment in accordance with the preceding object specifically provided for reducing body fat by retaining body heat interiorly thereof when the garment is worn during periods of exercise or at other times with the external appearance characteristic of the garment being attractive to enable the garment to be worn in public as well as in private during exercise periods and the like. A further object of the invention is to provide a layered reducing garment having detachable components such as the hood, sleeves and legs and separate upper and lower components constructed in a manner especially adapted for use by females or in a manner especially adapted for use by males and of varying sizes to enable universal utility of the garment. Still another object of the invention is to provide a layered reducing garment with the preceding objects in which certain components of the garments are provided with knitted end portions for closely encircling the wrists, ankles, neck and waist area of the wearer for retaining body heat with the detachable components enabling certain extremities of the human anatomy to be exposed outside of the garment so that only certain areas of the body may be reduced if desired. These together with other objects and advantages which will become subsequently apparent reside in the details of construction and operation as more fully hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the layered reducing garment of the present invention illustrating all of the components in assembled relationship. FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the garment with all of the separable components oriented in separated relation with a portion of one of the legs broken away to illustrate the layered construction. FIG. 3 is a fragmental sectional view, on an enlarged scale, taken along section line 3--3 on FIG. 1 illustrating the layered construction and the fastener assembly between the upper and lower portions of the garment. FIG. 4 is a fragmental sectional view, on an enlarged scale, taken substantially upon a plane passing along section line 4--4 on FIG. 2 illustrating further structural details of the layered construction of the reducing garment of the present invention. Referring now specifically to the drawings, the layered reducing garment of the present invention is generally designated by the numeral 10 and includes a hood 12, a jacket or upper torso covering portion 14 with detachable sleeves 16 and a pants portion or lower portion 18 having detachable legs 20 so that when all of the components of garment 10 are assembled and worn, all of the body of the person wearing the garment will be covered except for face 22, hands 24 and feet 26. The hands and feet can be covered by gloves and footwear if desired or may be left exposed. The outer end of each sleeve 16 is provided with an elasticized knitted cuff 28 and likewise, the lower end of each leg is provided with a similar cuff 30 for snugly embracing the wrist and ankle areas respectively and the upper end of the jacket or upper portion 14 is provided with a neck opening 32 defined by a neck band of knitted material to snugly enclose the neck area. Extending downwardly from the front of the neck opening or neck band 32 is a slit opening 34 closed by overlapping flaps and secured at its upper end in overlapping relation by a snap fastener arrangement 36 or equivalent fastening device. The hood 12 includes an open area 38 which exposes the face 22 as illustrated in FIG. 1 and the bottom edge of the hood 12 includes a band 40 with the interior of the band 40 and the exterior of the neck band 32 being provided with coacting hook and loop pile fastener material 42 such as that is available under the trademark "VELCRO" to enable easy attachement and detachment of the hood. Likewise, the jacket 18 is provided with an arm opening 44 at each shoulder with the exterior surface thereof and the interior surface of the upper end of the sleeve 16 being provided with fastener material similar to 42. The pants portion 18 is provided with a leg opening 46 having the exterior periphery joined to the interior of the upper end of the leg 20 by fastener material similar to 42. The lower end of the jacket 18 and the upper end of the pants portion overlap each other with the inner surface of the lower end of the jacket 14 and the outer surface of the upper end of the pants portion 18 being connected with hook and loop pile fastener material 42. The use of hook and loop pile fastener material or equivalent fasteners to secure the top portion 14 and bottom portion 18 together is optional inasmuch as a bulky knitted waist portion can be incorporated into the pants portion 18 and into the lower end of the jacket or upper portion 14 to retain these components in overlapping relation when the garment is worn. Also, the jacket 14 may be constructed with the sleeves 16 integrally attached thereto and likewise, the pants 18 can be provided with permanent legs 20 if desired. Also, the pants portion 18 may be provided with a slit-like opening closed by overlapping flaps and a snap similar to that used at the neck opening of the jacket 14 so that this form of the invention can be more expediently used by male wearers. FIG. 3 illustrates the relationship of the strips of hook and pile loop fastener material and preferably, the soft loop pile is on the external surface of the garment portions whereas the harder hooks are on the internal surfaces of the removable components so that when the components are removed, the soft pile will be left on that portion of the garment being worn. The garment 10 is constructed of three layers of material including an inner layer 48, a middle layer 50 and an outer layer 52 with the inner layer 48 preferably being an absorbent fabric such as cotton and may be either lightweight or heavyweight such as cotton material used in the construction of T-shirts or similar undergarments. Other types of launderable absorbent fabrics may be used which are comfortable when in contact with the skin surface. The middle layer 50 is a flexible vinyl material which is air and moisture impervious and also launderable and capable of being secured to the other layers by conventional stitching, sewing the like. The outer layer 52 is of attractive, elastic and flexible fabric material such as terry cloth or other wash and wear materials including knitted fabrics and the like similar to those used in jogging suits and the like which are readily launderable and constructed of various attractive colors and materials. The layered reducing garment of the present invention may be constructed in various sizes, models and externally attractive materials so that it can be worn while exercising or in public during normal activities. The garment is durable and reduces weight by capturing body heat and retaining it interiorly of the garment thereby assisting in reducing body fat and thus body weight. The inner layer of cotton or other similar absorbent fabric will absorb perspiration and eliminate the objectionable clinging of the middle layer of vinyl to the skin surface thus rendering the garment comfortable to wear for long periods of time. The terry cloth outer layer is breatheable and may be elasticized and may be of any suitable wash and wear material with the three layers being conventionally connected together by stitching and conventional sewing techniques. The garment is easy to don and remove without tearing and causes perspiration without the wetness of the perspiration showing on the outside of the garment. The garment is easily washable and the hood may be optionally used when desired. Also, various conventional fasteners may be used for securing the components together although the hook and loop pile fastener material provides a continuity of the air and moisture imperviousness of the garment. An external pocket may be provided with a zipper opening and closing feature if desired to enable the wearer to retain possession of various desired articles. The top portion or jacket and the pants portion may be worn separately if desired and the garment may be worn for long periods of time without any harmful effects while utilizing the beneficial effects of retaining the body heat for reducing weight. The foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.

Pros1st line management, Great customers... ( The one we have left! )
ConsThis company would be a great research project for an MBA looking to write a thesis on how to destroy a company with a great customer base. 1/3 of customers lost since Vitera took over due to cuts in customer support and training. The only thing keeping the employees that are left is the crappy economy. No future in sight.
Advice to ManagementAdviceFocus more on taking care of the customers you have left than productivity improvements and micro management.

Best meal I ever ate:
I always think about a sandwich I had years ago in Italy when I was in college on a study abroad trip. Dense, crustless bread, sweet creamy butter, ham and sauteed mushrooms and thinly sliced hard-boiled egg. WOW. We ate it outside in a park on a sunny day. Was it this humble sandwich or just the fact that I was in Italy for the first time in the company of good friends?
My current drink of choice:
La Crema Pinot Noir
I really wish I could:
Eat my way through the great cities of Europe.
My "Go-to" dinner party dish:
Chicken Tikka Masala. I have finally found a recipe that even I can't screw up!
My favorite comfort food:
Soup! I love soup! And eggs. Scrambled, over-easy, omelettes. And I love sandwiches with extra mayo. Loooove mayo!

HoopsHype Patrick Ewing rumors
"My relationship with the Knicks is fine,'' Ewing said. "Mr. Dolan has been very good to me. He gave me a great opportunity to do some TV. I cherish the opportunity maybe one day in near future, I'll be back in the organization. I have no problem with the Knicks. I have no problem with the Dolans and it's fair to say they have no problems with myself.'' Ewing said he has no interest in being a D-League coach. "I wasn't offended,'' Ewing said. "I didn't want to be a coach in the developmental league. I wanted to be a coach in the NBA."The opportunity wasn't in my best interest.' New York Post
As far as his son tweeting he was "real mad'' at Kidd's hire while his father has received just two head-coaching interviews, Ewing said, "I told him he needs to get rid of his Twitter account. All he's going to do is end up in trouble. I appreciate it. I love him to death, but I don't need him to fight my battles.'' New York Post
Patrick Ewing, a North Carolina Tar Heel? Hard to imagine, we know. But when you hear the Georgetown legend's reasoning for not picking the Tar Heels, it would be hard to knock him for not teaming up with Michael Jordan under head coach Dean Smith. Ewing appeared on "The Dan Patrick Show" and explained why he didn't head to Chapel Hill. "You know, I was close [to attending UNC]. I was close. North Carolina was a very good school but, you know, when I went down there they put me in that Carolina Inn and there was a big Ku Klux Klan rally in North Carolina when I was there," Ewing said. "And I'm like, 'You know what? I'm not coming down here. I'm staying my butt back in Boston.'" New York Daily News
"So the reason why you didn't go (to UNC), or the major reason, is the KKK had a rally going on at the time?" Patrick asked. "Big rally man. I was like... They stuck me in that Carolina Inn. And at night down in North Carolina it gets pitch black and I hear all the crickets and I'm jumping, I'm like 'what the heck?' I said, 'Nah, I'm going home.'" New York Daily News
One year after interviewing to be the Charlotte Bobcats' head coach, Hall of Fame center Patrick Ewing has been hired as Steve Clifford's top assistant, an informed source confirmed. An agreement in principle had been reached by the team and Ewing as of Tuesday. A formal announcement should come later this week. Charlotte Observer
Hall of Fame center Patrick Ewing has reached agreement to become the associate head coach for the Charlotte Bobcats, league sources told Yahoo! Sports. Yahoo! Sports
Ewing will join the coaching staff of new Bobcats head coach Steve Clifford. Ewing and Clifford have a strong professional and personal history together. Sacramento Kings coach Mike Malone also tried to hire Ewing for his coaching staff. Yahoo! Sports
The Charlotte Bobcats are bringing in Hall of Fame center Patrick Ewing for an interview on Wednesday for their lead assistant position, someone close to the situation informed CSNNW.com. According to the source, who spoke on the condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter, says "It's Ewing's job for the taking." CSNNW.com
When reached by phone, Ewing confirmed he was meeting with head coach Steve Clifford in Charlotte. "Charlotte is a great city and I'm open-minded," Ewing told CSNNW.com. "I have worked with Steve for many years in Houston and Orlando and I consider him to be a friend. We'll see what they are looking for and see if it'll be a good fit." CSNNW.com
Patrick Ewing has emerged as a candidate to join former Knicks assistant coach Steve Clifford with Charlotte. Clifford agreed to become Bobcats head coach on Monday, and his relationship with Ewing dates back to the late '90s when Clifford joined Jeff Van Gundy's staff. Clifford and Ewing eventually worked together as assistants in both Houston and Orlando before Clifford was hired by the Lakers last summer. New York Daily News
He is expected to try to hire Patrick Ewing as one of his top assistant coaches, reuniting Ewing with his close friend, Bobcats owner Michael Jordan. Yahoo! Sports
With a trifecta of coaches around 70 years old rumored as potential candidates, including Phil Jackson, Larry Brown and Jerry Sloan, why wouldn't the most accomplished basketball player in the New York area over the last 30 years be considered? Mike Greenberg of ESPN Radio's Mike and Mike asked Ewing that question Friday morning when he appeared on the show to talk about the 2013 NBA Playoffs. "Your guess is as good as mine," Ewing candidly responded. He continued. "You know what? I'm putting in the work. I've been an assistant coach for nine, 10 years. I'm trying to learn my craft, become better at it. I really don't know. All I can do is just continue to work, continue to knock on doors. Hopefully that one team will decide to give me an opportunity and give me the opportunity to be successful or to fail." SNY Nets
Hall of Fame center, Patrick Ewing, 50, is quite aware of the NBA head coaching positions that are opening up by the week and quite frankly, it's frustrating for the big man to see General Mangers not give him a passing thought when considering candidates for their vacancy. "It's just disappointing, but I'm just hoping and waiting somebody gives me a look," Ewing told CSNNW.com. "I just need an opportunity. All it takes is one team. CSNNW.com
"I'll interview for any (NBA) head or assistant job out there," Ewing reiterated. "I do believe I'm ready to be a head guy but I also want to be on a staff somewhere. Hopefully I get a call soon, but you never know. CSNNW.com
Michael Jordan got married over the weekend, with Tiger Woods, Spike Lee and Patrick Ewing among those attending the NBA Hall of Famer's wedding in Palm Beach, Fla. Jordan married 35-year-old former model Yvette Prieto on Saturday, manager Estee Portnoy told The Associated Press on Sunday. ESPN.com
"When I was in Houston we dealt with Yao (Ming) missing good chunks of the season," Thibodeau said. "In Boston we had a situation one year with (Kevin) Garnett where he got hurt in the first game after the All-Star break and we were hopeful that he would be able to come back and try and he was never able to do it. When I was in New York, Patrick (Ewing) missed a majority of the season; I think he got hurt in the 16th game of the year, early December, and he was able to come back during the playoffs. That experience taught me that it's the right thing to do. So if Derrick can come back we want him back." ESPN.com
With some NBA teams already looking to next season, Ewing is paying attention to the coaching market. He wants to return to an NBA bench, potentially as a head coach. "I'm definitely looking to get back into it," Ewing said. "There will probably be a lot of openings this summer, and hopefully, I'll get an opportunity to interview and possibly land one of these jobs." USA Today Sports
On if championships should count when assessing a player's career: David Stern: "They do and they should. It doesn't take it away from someone if he doesn't have any. There are great players — Patrick Ewing, Bob Lanier, Dominique Wilkins, Bob McAdoo — all 50-greatest material, they don't have championships. But the reality is that it does count a bit. And Michael has six and Kobe has five and LeBron has one and the world is standing back to see how well he's gonna do. And we saw that with Larry and Magic, how they made everyone around them better. And Michael wasn't the Michael of Ahmad Rashad fame and deification until he started winning championships, and that's just the reality of it." Sports Radio Interviews

Bobblehead dolls of John Wilkes Booth have been pulled from the shelves of a Gettysburg visitors center, but maybe this is the start of a new bobblehead market.
(A brief discussion twixt Baer & Baer's editor, a.k.a. BE)
JB: Boss, see the story about John Wilkes Booth bobblehead dolls being pulled from the shelves of the Gettysburg National Park visitors center bookstore?
BE: I did. It's gone national. It's in the New York Daily News and the Washinton Post. Guess some folks took exception to a doll depicting Lincoln's assassin holding a drawn hand gun. Costs $20. Comes in a box made to resemble Fords Theater. Pretty far out, eh?
JB: On the other hand, could open up a new market.
BE: You mean other offensive bobbleheads? Like, locally, sell Arlene Ackerman bobbleheads to raise money for schools. Or Rendell bobbleheads to raise money for anything.
JB: I was thinking of a bigger market, national appeal using the Booth model.
BE: Like Oswald dolls on sale in Dallas?
JB: Or John Hinckley dolls at the Reagan library in Simi Valley, California.
BE: "Squeaky" Fromme dolls in Ann Arbor.
JB: Timothy McVeigh dolls in Oklahoma City.
BE: Osama bin Laden anywhere.
JB: Actually, the company that made the Booth bobbleheads told the The Evening Sun in Hanover near Gettysburg that it also made Osama bobbleheads.
BE: Get out.
JB: Yep. BobbleHead, LLC. Based in Kansas city. Spokesman talked to the Sun after the Booth dolls were pulled. Said, "We've made probably over a million bobbleheads and this is the first time it ever happened. So why change course? We've done Osama bin Laden."
BE: Well, at least the Booth dolls are gone.
JB: Or as one historian told the Sun, "wiser bobbleheads prevailed."

Christmas Church
I have a peek today of one of the two new sets coming on December 1 from Our Daily Bread Designs. This beautiful Christmas church scene is from the set Worship the Lord, which also has two sentiments and a Scripture stamp. I adore the tranquility of the scene and plan on making a few extras to use as Christmas cards this year. Don't worry - these will go to other artistic types!
I stamped on watercolor paper and colored with a combination of an aqua painter with re-inkers and markers. I sponged some extra ink on the sky using Bordering Blue ink. The snow is a combination of liquid applique, Frosted Lace Stickles, and a Sakura stardust gel pen. I cut the image panel using Stampin' Up's Top Note Sizzix die, then hand-cut a Chocolate Chip mat. The designer papers are from the Frost Collection by Memory Box. I used the Stampin' Up curvy label punch to create the white scalloped trim around the background panel.
Here's a detail shot of some of that sparkle:
Thanks for stopping by!
Stamps: Worship the Lord (Our Daily Bread Designs)

The Italian team's British technical director had his appendix removed in a Barcelona hospital less than two weeks ago, forcing him to miss qualifying and the Spanish Grand Prix. Mathias Bruner, the correspondent for German-language Speed Week, said 49-year-old Fry will also sit out Thursday's practice sessions in Monaco. "But on Friday he will be in Monaco," he added, "and in the pits as usual on Saturday and Sunday."
