We Wish Colin Egglesfield Was on Our 'Client List' – Hunk of the Day
Jennifer Love Hewitt stars in the Lifetime original series 'The Client List' where she plays a suburban single mom leading a double life as an "adult-friendly" masseuse… Blah, blah, blah, what else is new? What everyone is really interested in is that sex-on-a-stick Colin Egglesfield who plays her brother-in-law with the abs of steel.
Egglesfield has a lot of experience being shirtless, which explains why he's so good at it. You might remember him (or at least his rippling biceps) from shows like the rebooted 'Melrose Place' on The CW, 'Nip/Tuck,' 'Something Borrowed' with Kate Hudson, and that Lifetime original movie 'Carnal Innocence.'
If we were in Hewitt's position, we'd make this guy our number one client. See why below.

As an RN of 35 years, I have always been fascinated by the way people embrace or reject their physical frailties. There is so much diversity in the way each of us responds to pain, disease, life and death. I've seen large men fall to the ground in a faint while getting an injection and held down screaming children while they received treatment or a simple exam. I wonder when we learn to be submissive and decide "it's for your own good?" The truth is sometimes it is good care, sometimes it isn't. A good, principled nurse or doctor knows the difference. Just ask one of us who we would let treat us or a member of our family.
At the same time we are either participants in our care or we shift into neutral and expect someone else to make our decisions for us. Those of us who have struggled as patients with pain and disease for many years have many stories to tell. Some of them are beautiful tales of compassion, excellent care and unfortunately, some dispassionate, belittling care. Many of us have been humiliated by physicians and other medical personnel who are without compassion and have become unduly impressed with their own authority and take advantage of their positions. Others of us have been fortunate enough to be given loving and knowledgeable care by fellow beings that seem to have been "called" to this medical mission. Any way you cut it, we need medical care at some time in our lives, some of us more than others.
It's been an interesting life for me, this view from both sides of the medical issue; both sides of the sheets. As most of you know, I'm married to an RN, have a son who is an RN and a daughter who is a speech pathologist. We've been known to discuss some pretty disgusting subjects over the dinner table. I have a dear son-in-law who gets woozy at the sight of blood and has been initiated into human fluids as a father of two little ones. Poor man. He's been initiated by vomit, urine, poop and blood. Now that I think about it, parenthood is a lot like nursing.
My father's side of the family is riddled with rheumatoid diseases and there are many members of my family who have suffered and many continue to have problems; including me. If you stop and consider the issue, most families have something which seems to stream through their DNA. My husband's family has suffered from many forms of cancer. Others have heart trouble, asthma and on and on it goes. This thing called life is imperfect. Each of us needs to decide if life is a comedy-drama or if it's a tragedy. Choose? Yes, it's up to us how we handle what comes along. Victim or victor? Which one will you and I be?
Since I began to write about my illnesses, many years ago when I had to retire from nursing due to my disabilities, I've met countless individuals who share my concerns. I have found this reaching out to metaphorically hold the hand of another to be life-giving and empowering. We each do ourselves a terrible disservice when we think we're the only one having pain or suffering. Millions of lives in this country alone face changes brought on by these vessels we have to walk around in called our bodies. There are many lessons to be learned by sharing our problems with each other. Like threads in a tapestry our lives can join and weave together to form something quite beautiful to see. You and I don't have to be one lone little thread, hanging out on our own. A rope that is strong and mighty is only many threads woven together. The joining of those threads produces strength.
One of the most common mistakes I have observed is when individuals who are ill wall themselves off from others, believing no one can understand what they are experiencing or more harmful still, no one else suffers like they do. Let me list some of the most common problems I have experienced and seen others experience, often in vast numbers.
- SELF-PITY. It's there. Why wouldn't it be? Our most intimate selves have been invaded, changed and altered. None of us stood up in grammar school and said we wanted to live in pain when we grew up. It's okay to feel sorry for ourselves. After the anger, the crying, the wallowing we must reach a point through all of that process when we say, "Okay. That's enough. Now I have to figure out what my life will be."
- GUILT. We have each been there and actually go there often. We start by asking, "What did I do to being this horrible condition to myself?" We then move on to believe we are failing those we love like our husbands, wives and children. This is an ongoing process. I still go through this after 20+ years of illness. Does it matter if the laundry piles up? Does dinner have to be a seven course feast? Is it okay to have dust and fur balls in the corner of each room? How sticky can the floor get? If I can't hold down a job am I still worthy?It helps me to remember I did not do this to myself. It just is. If I did do this to myself, there comes a time of forgiveness of one's self and of getting on with life. Now the ball is in my court and I have to get the best care I can, have the best attitude I can find and often work at it. Each of us must find our way through this maze using communication, love and reason with a large smattering of joy and beauty thrown in. We need to remember we may not be understood by members of our own families and sometimes relationships are disrupted. Change what you can and accept what you cannot. That sounds so simple, I know. That alone can take years to accomplish.
- FAMILY PROBLEMS. Many of our toughest critics are our relatives. It just is. We often are labeled by our family members very early in our lives and they fail to observe us as we mature, change or even deteriorate. Sometimes, our family members have great expectations of us and are not willing to change. The various members of our families have problems just as our friends and neighbors. They have drug problems, alcohol problems and difficulties getting outside themselves. When I was working as a director for a home IV therapy company, I had a patient who was dying of cancer. Because her daughter was a drug addict we had to lock up her morphine drip IV bags. I've seen similar abuse and even had a friend visit us who was struggling with addiction and found myself hiding my pain pills and muscle relaxants. Sad but true.
- EMBRACE YOUR HUMANITY. This is the most important lesson for each of us to learn. We all share the human condition. We are much like animals in this respect. We are what we are taught. We reflect love as it is shown to us. We attack back when we are attacked. We also each have within us the ability to grow, to change, to share and to give. Hug yourself today and if you can, hug someone else.

I have an incredibly gorgeous male friend. He is what we call traditionally good-looking: tall, dark and ridiculously hot. I've even slept in his bed! (…alone.)
Another male friend of mine isn't traditionally handsome like the former, but has a je ne sais quoi about him and is entertaining on a whole another level. His eyes are a brilliant shade of cornflower blue that I would kill for if it were a microglitter nail polish a la Misa Sugar Daddy. (For those of you not in the know, blue eyes are my weakness. D'oh!)
What does any of this have to do with nail polish?
My biggest and most elusive lemming is Essie Starry Starry Night. I cannot have any of the above.
The apex of my nail polish addiction started shortly after Essie stopped the re-release of SSN and Viva La Vespa. I kick myself on a regular basis (okay, not that regular, but often) that I didn't get into nail polish seriously until Fall 2008. I sometimes get a little sad when I see it on other blogs. (Talk about nail envy! Grow a pair, Asian Girl!)
I found that SSN is available through Harrods' site. However, after the currency conversion and shipping costs, it would total up to $50. I've already spent $30 each on Chanels; I cross the line there. I almost thought about calling up an old study abroad pal who is back in London for grad school to help me out but the shipping rates would probably still apply.
Because of this deep longing of SSN, I resorted to what may be my biggest low concerning my addiction. Bealls Outlet is a Florida-based discount chain where I frequent to find random nail polish colors. I found a "grab bag" of nail polishes, mostly full of Sally Hansen colors (seriously, how many craptacular colors can be made from pink and red?) but one caught my eye…a SSN lookalike! I almost had a heart attack on the spot. I, for one, did not want to spend 8 dollars for the bag. (There is no rhyme or reason to this. I have dedicated much more dollars and credit on less-worthy nail polish endeavors.) I found a loose color of Rimmel with a $1.50 price tag, carefully removed it and put it on my SSN lookalike and put the Rimmel in the grab bag and high-tailed it to the register.
Was it worth it? Take a look:
While I just divulged my snarkiest nail polish confession (hey, at least I didn't steal it from someone's bathroom *cough*SarahMichelleGellar*cough*), I think Bealls got the last laugh. Their regular store recently had a MAJOR sale (50% and 70% off color clearance plus take an extra 40% off) and they sucked over a hundred bucks from me last week. They definitely got their money's worth from me.
However, I'm still holding out hope for guys (not those guys, but the others out there) and Essie Starry Starry Night. I just won't spend $50 for either.
"I wanna be rich
Never work at all
And sleep all day
And I wanna see it all
Oh, I want, I want everything
I want everything I can't have"

Suicides are very sad but also, possibly, preventable and hopefully, treatable. The US Army is banking that they can develop a nasal spray that could prevent suicidal thoughts from ever occurring and are spending the next few years trying to combat suicide in soldiers with science.
The Army has decided to put Dr. Michael Kubek, an Indiana University of Medicine professor, to work in developing an anti-suicide spray. Kubek is famous for his help in discovering thyrotropin-releasing hormone, (TRH), which is known to have antisuicidal and antidepression effects. The problem though is that TRH can't cross the 'blood-brain barrier' through pills or injection so Kubek is tasked with figuring out another way to have TRH be absorbed by the brain. Kubek and the army are hoping a nasal spray can be the answer. Hopefully, it is. [CNN via BoingBoing, zech/Shutterstock]

The humble business card is something of an old fashioned icon, but it is still in daily use. This is in spite of the fact that most people carry a mobile phone with them that could be easily used to store contact details instead of having to carry around bundles of cards that are all too easily lost.
While it is perfectly possible to sit down and manually transfer business card details to your phone, this is a lengthy and laborious process. It is also something that ABBYY Business Card Reader is able to help with.
Using your iPhone's camera, it is possible to take a photograph of a business card and the app will automatically scan it and create a new contact based on the information it contains. With support for 17 languages, including multi-lingual cards, ABBYY Business Card Reader can cave a great deal of typing.
The free version of the program will only extract first and last name as well as the first available phone number, but full contact details can be saved using the full version of the app. You can also use the app to look up contacts on Facebook and merge details with existing contacts that you have already created.
Upgrading to the full version of the program unlocks a few features that will be of greater interest to those using ABBYY Business Card Reader as a fully-fledged business tool rather than just an alternative contact management system. This includes address searching with Google Maps and contact searching on LinkedIn and Twitter.
A great way to not only organise and manage your contacts but also declutter and find out more about those you work with.

For decades, Connecticut has been on the sidelines when it comes to bringing businesses and jobs to the state, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy told area business and community leaders Wednesday at a breakfast organized by the Chamber of Commerce of Eastern Connecticut.
For decades, Connecticut has been on the sidelines when it comes to bringing businesses and jobs to the state, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy told area business and community leaders Wednesday at a breakfast organized by the Chamber of Commerce of Eastern Connecticut.
And for about a half-hour, the governor explained what his administration has done and plans to do to change the state's course.
"We're racing, trying to get as many things done in both the short term and the long term," Malloy told the audience of more than 200. "I'm not standing around. I'm pushing change, which is hard in this state."
Malloy said he plans to deliver a balanced budget to the legislature Feb. 5, and that it would not include tax increases, but may extend previously enacted taxes.
"We raised taxes once, and it's not something I want to do again," he said, also noting that work to modernize state government and reduce state retirement benefits through concessions would save $26 billion over the next 20 years.
Job creation, Malloy said, has been "the biggest problem Connecticut has had," for more than two decades.
"We have failed to grow jobs on a net basis," Malloy said. "We refused to compete. We refused to understand that we needed to make investments in infrastructure and education. So we've taken those issues on as well."
Malloy said that in his two years as governor, Connecticut has reached out to more than 500 companies, including 42 in Eastern Connecticut, with economic incentives. An $11 million investment in the region in the past year has secured, added or retained up to 400 jobs, he said.
This was done through the administration's Small Business Express and First Five programs, which provide funding for small and large companies.
And to attract "the folks with great ideas," the state developed the Innovations Ecosystem program to help start new businesses.
"We'll try to link them, in our state, with capital, to get those ideas into production," he said.
Malloy also singled out aerospace manufacturer Pratt & Whitney as a bright spot, despite the company's announcement Tuesday that it would lay off 200 salaried employees.
"Pratt & Whitney, when they're up and running with their new engine for delivery, have orders for 20 years," he said.
The governor also briefly touched on the conversation in Connecticut and nationally around firearm-related violence in the wake of the school shootings in Newtown.
"We have to have appropriate, mature discussions about what we can do to lessen the chances of those things repeating themselves, even with the understanding that there are people who don't want to have those mature and serious discussions. Somehow, we have to weave our way through that."
Rene Laurencot, of Montville, said he's concerned about reduced state funding for education. His wife is a public school teacher in Montville.
"I hope it doesn't happen, but I have a feeling there will be cuts," he said.
Malloy said he's committed to education, and to protecting it in the coming budget.
"We're very concerned about the long-term implications of not properly educating our children," he said. Connecticut has been losing ground to other states such as Massachusetts in graduation rate, he said.
East Lyme First Selectman Paul Formica wants to see action on streamlining the process for improving infrastructure.
"The cost and time for permitting has become a problem," he said. He's also concerned about declining state aid to municipalities.
Malloy said he's "wrestling" with that in current budget meetings.
"But there's no one who's going to go to a greater extent to try to hold local governments as harmless as possible than I am," he said.
Rep. Kevin Ryan, D-Montville, said he wasn't surprised that Malloy didn't share much about the budget he's crafting.
"Aid to municipalities, aid to education, obviously that's a concern to towns," Ryan said.

The 1959 Red Sox had a losing record for the first time in five years but the club made positive strides when it integrated its roster in August by calling up infielder Pumpsie Green. That same month, Fenway Park hosted some of the biggest names in the music industry as part of the Boston Jazz Festival.
Record: 75-79 5th in American League
Manager: Michael F. Higgins (31-42), Rudy York (0-1), William F. Jurges (44-36)
Attendance: 984,102
With an increasingly lackluster and fragmented team, the Red Sox moved to Scottsdale, AZ for Spring Training. Following exhibition games in his native San Diego, Ted Williams suffered a pinched nerve in his neck while driving back to Arizona. He missed the first 25 games of the season and never really recovered, hitting .254 for the lone sub-.300 season in his career.
Joe Cronin became American League president and Bucky Harris replaced him as the general manager of the Red Sox. Pinky Higgins started 1959 as the team's manager but he was replaced during the season by Billy Jurges.
Less than three weeks after the managerial switch, the Red Sox brought up Pumpsie Green, the team's first African-American player. Green tripled in his first Fenway at-bat on August 4.
The Red Sox went 75-79 and drew less than a million fans to Fenway Park in 1959, kicking off a stretch of sub-.500 seasons.
Rookie right-hander Jerry Casale had the best record among Red Sox pitchers at 13-8, and hit a three-run homer over the left-field wall to win his first start on April 15. Jackie Jensen's 112 RBIs led the league.
Despite his poor year, Williams finished the 1950s with an MLB-best .336 batting average, the second decade in row that he'd led the game (Williams is the only player with this distinction). Sitting on 492 career home runs, and wanting to end his career on a positive note, Williams decided to return in 1960.

Having been elected President of the American League in January 1959, Joe Cronin made Fenway Park the temporary headquarters for the league in February of the same year. The AL offices soon moved to the sixth floor of the I.B.M. Building at 520 Boylston Street in Boston. In August, a three-day jazz festival presented by music promoter and producer George Wein took place at the park. Performers included Ray Charles, Pee Wee Russell, Dakota Staton, Dukes of Dixieland, Coleman Hawkins, Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, Dave Brubeck, the Modern Jazz Quartet, Duke Ellington, Dinah Washington and Oscar Peterson.

Durham is one of the three famous Research Triangle Cities. It's also the home of three prestigious institutes of higher education, including Research Triangle Park, Duke University, and North Carolina Central University. Though certainly the most underrated of the triplet cities, Durham has a host of things to offer to visitors and residents alike. The city's rich history is built on the tobacco and mill industries, but it has since progressed to become one of the best destinations for learning, shopping, dining, and living in North Carolina. From its vibrant nightlife to wonderful festivals and great shopping destinations, Durham has something to offer for everyone.
Because Durham is the home of three major universities, it's important to begin looking as early as possible. The apartment search season tends to begin around May, peaking in July, and petering out around August. Though there are certainly properties available after August, it may be more difficult to find them.
Finding an apartment can be hard, especially when there are so many choices. Adding a filter can help narrow your search. With our Quick Filters below, you can search by a price and amenities. After following one of these links, be sure to check out the advanced search filters and then sign up for an Email Alert so you can receive new listings that match your needs.
Durham is definitely the most underplayed of the Research Triangle Cities, but its recent cultural revival makes it an exciting (and affordable) place to live compared to Raleigh and Chapel Hill. The community here is incredibly vibrant and the people love their city. It's easy to find friends and good neighbors here.
Durham has many walkable neighborhoods for those without a vehicle, though the Durham Area Transit Authority (DATA) has limited service range and is not known for its reliability. Durham residences with vehicles can sleep easy knowing that their short commute to work in the morning won't involve heavy traffic or stress.
There is no shortage of nightlife and shopping in Durham. If you're looking for some of the best restaurants and shopping in the area, check out the famed 9th Street. At Brightleaf Square, enjoy some of Durham's finest dining among the architecture of old tobacco warehouses. If you're itching for a shopping spree, don't miss out on the sprawling retail district at Streets at Southpoint.
Durham's past as a booming center of the tobacco industry has certainly made its mark on the city. Residents and visitors alike enjoy touring the Duke Homestead and Tobacco Factory, the historic farm where Washington Duke grew his product and sold into the world. This idyllic location is both picturesque and educational. Of course, Bull City has more to offer than tobacco history. Enjoy taking a turn through the Sarah P. Duke Gardens, a beautiful 55-acre garden housing plants and exhibits from countries across the globe. You can also have a singular experience at the Duke Lemur Center, an 85-acre Prosimian primate sanctuary that allows you to learn all about these adorable creatures as you take a guided tour the facility.
Many people claim that Durham is the best place to eat in the research triangle. From Southern-style tapas to down-to-earth burger joints, no matter what kind of cuisine you're craving, you'll find something to love in the area. Both Ninth Street and Brightleaf boast some spectacular eateries. University Drive is also home to many famous Durham eats, such as Nana's Durham and Saladelia Café. The American Tobacco District in Downtown has also become a culinary hub for new and exciting restaurants. Eating your way through Durham is sure to be an exceptional experience!
Much like Durham's food scene, the bars in Bull City are flourishing. Unsurprisingly, the area around Duke University is crawling with bumpin' clubs and dirt cheap dives, ranging from a wild-west themed dance club to a popular brewery. If you're searching for a more adult crowd, head over to 9th Street or West Main and kick back at an industrial brewery or upscale wine bar. Rigsbee Avenue is also home to a few popular hangouts, including an LGBT Bar, moody lounges, and a few hole-in-the-walls too. As long as you have a few bucks, you'll never go thirsty in Durham!
Durham's local culture is largely concentrated in music. A number of famous artists have once called this city home, ranging from popular folk groups to metal and rock bands. Some famous names include Iron & Wine, The Mountain Goats, Carolina Chocolate Drops, and Branford Marsalis. Concerts regularly take place in the local Carolina Theatre. Love a good play? Head over to the Durham Performing Arts Center for a top-notch play or Broadway show on tour. Explore the visual arts at the Nasher Museum of Art, which boasts a diverse collection that holds a wide range of pieces from ancient to contemporary.
Durham offers many culturally centered events that residents can enjoy year 'round. In April, the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival attracts international attention as one of America's largest fests. May brings the Durham Art Walk, a huge showcase of local artists' work right downtown. Each summer the city also hosts the American Dance Festival, the nation's largest contemporary dance fest. Lovers of diversity can also check out Bimbe Festival, a free African Harvest festival with out-of-this-world live music, a craft bazaar, and delicious food.

The local college teams define sports culture in Durham. Duke University's basketball team boasts a loyal following, commonly called the "Cameron Crazies." In fact, The Blue Devils always sell out games in the indoor stadium and are known for their many NCAA championship wins. If you're more of a baseball lover, you can always chow down on some hot dogs or peanuts at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park while you enjoy a lovely minor-league game on a summer afternoon.
Durham may not be home to many traditional urban parks, but it does offer some interesting recreational spaces for its outdoorsy visitors. For a little exercise, run, bike, or rollerblade on the American Tobacco Trail, a paved path running from downtown Durham to Raleigh. If you want to be immersed in nature, head to Eno River State Park. This 4,200-acre wooded park encompasses creeks, meadows, and a quarry. Enjoy exploring the park's many nature trails, picnic areas, and canoe launches. During the spring, many people enjoy spotting groups of passing deer or enjoying the sweet smell of nearby wildflowers!

Staying on Top of Prostate Cancer
A new mantra and can-do attitude helped author Bob Hill fight his battle with prostate cancer. Read his tips and find out what works for you.
Minutes after learning he had prostate cancer, Bob Hill, author of Dead Men Don't Have Sex, gave his wife, Charlotte, a comforting hug and said, "It's going to be okay." At the time, he now admits, "I didn't know who I was trying to convince." But he was right. Things did turn out okay. Thanks to the right treatment and a "positive, take-charge approach," Bob is cancer-free nearly a decade later.
Not that the road was bump-free. After undergoing surgery, Bob battled incontinence for six months. During this difficult period, he reached out for help—and that's exactly what he urges others with prostate cancer to do.
"Don't be John Wayne," Bob advises. "Now, little woman, you just rustle us up some grub and I'm gonna go out back and take care of this prostate cancer," Bob drawls, chuckling. "You don't have to go it alone—and you shouldn't. There's plenty of help—but you have to reach out and get it."
Bob's tips for taking charge of prostate cancer
I named my cancer. It's hard to fight an unseen, unknown foe. "I named my cancer 'Karl.' If I could name him, I could beat him."
I asked direct questions. "If you ask your doctor a direct question, you'll get a direct answer. Say, 'I'm having this problem—whenever I bend over to pick up the newspaper, I have some leakage.' "
I created a mantra (and repeated it often). "Mine used to be: I choose to embrace the life I have been given rather than mourn the life I have lost. I am going to have a good second half of my life. Now, my new mantra is: I'm strong. I know I have the capacity—the reservoir deep within me that I can draw from—if I ever have to fight this again."
I trusted the people around me. "I built a bubble of trust," says Bob. "I trusted my surgeon. I accepted the help my spouse was offering. I accepted help from friends."
I worked with a nurse navigator. "A nurse navigator can provide a road map to recovery. She can provide access to support groups and give you information that allows you to make informed decisions."
I changed my way of thinking. Instead of, "I'll never be continent again," Bob shifted to, "Someday I'll have control of my bladder." Then to, "Soon I'll have control of my bladder," and from there to, "Now I have control of my bladder." And finally, "I will have control of my bladder forever." "The challenge is getting from never to someday," he adds.
I found support. Some things—like incontinence and ED (erectile dysfunction)—can be tough to talk about. Bob found online discussion boards where he could ask things anonymously. "That's where I learned how I could taper from a heavy pad to a lighter pad. I wound up with panty liners as my incontinence began to improve." If you think a meeting might help you, but don't know where to begin, "ask your nurse navigator about a support group in your area," suggests Bob. "It's a brotherhood. Those guys are all about helping."

TACOMA, Wash. – For the third consecutive match, the Puget Sound men's soccer team came away with a 1-0 victory on Sunday over Colorado College. The Loggers (3-1-1) defeated Colorado College 1-0 on an Andrew White goal in the second half.
Chris McDonald made four saves in the match to come away with his third shutout of the season to move into a tie for third all-time on the Loggers career shutout list. Three of his saves came in the second half but his save in the first half proved crucial as he turned away a one-on-one opportunity for the Tigers (3-2-0).
In the first half, the Tigers controlled much of the possession and held a 6-4 shot advantage. Their best opportunity came in the 13th minute when a cross in found Matt Fechter behind the defense. McDonald was able to get a hand on the shot and deflect it over the crossbar to keep the match scoreless.
Ryan Rash had an opportunity for the Loggers later in the half. The goalie had come out of the box and a turnover played in Rash behind the defense. He chipped the ball toward the net from about 30 yards out but a defender came sliding in to sweep it away and preserve the tie.
In the second half, the Loggers finally broke the silence as Chris Shaw crossed a pass into the six-yard box. A bouncing ball made its way through the traffic and Andrew White was there to tap it in for a Logger goal, his first of the season.
McDonald made three saves in the second half and the Loggers were able to control much more possession as they held Colorado College off the scoreboard for their third shutout in as many matches and their third consecutive win.
The Loggers remain home next week for their NWC-opener against Pacific at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday.

What if there was a store that was having a sale, and an item is priced at 3.00 and was 40 percent off? It would cost 1.80.
And then if there was anther sale, and an item is priced at 3.00 and was 60 percent off, it would cost 1.20.
But, what if you were in a hurry, and you weren't watching your prices closely at the store. And then you were looking at the items in your bag, and the item was marked at 3.50. Well, then, it costs 1.40. Yes, it's only pennies different but if you're buying lots of them, it adds up.
The moral of the story is to look at the prices on the items before you pay your money. And if there are price changes you weren't expecting, ask about them. Before you pay your money.

Put Two Up Front For Two New Words
This is WEEKEND EDITION from NPR News. I'm Linda Wertheimer. And it is time for the puzzle.
WERTHEIMER: Joining me now is puzzle-master Will Shortz. Good morning, Will.
WILL SHORTZ, BYLINE: Good morning, Linda.
WERTHEIMER: So, Will, could you remind us of last week's puzzle challenge.
SHORTZ: Yes. It came from listener Richard Whittington of Media, Pennsylvania. I said think of the last name of a famous person in entertainment. The first two letters of this name are a symbol for one of the elements on the periodic table. I said substitute the name of this element for the two letters, and you'll describe the chief element of this person's work. What is it?
WERTHEIMER: The answer is Tina Fey.
SHORTZ: Yes. And the first two letters of Fey are F-E, which is a symbol for iron. And irony is a chief element of her work.
WERTHEIMER: More than 700 listeners sent in the correct answer, and our winner this week is Eric Running of Seattle, Washington. Congratulations, Eric.
ERIC RUNNING: Thank you.
WERTHEIMER: So, what do you do in Seattle?
RUNNING: Well, I'm a retired Foreign Service officer, and I moved back her and I'm sort of a stay-at-home dad and do some volunteer work.
WERTHEIMER: Did you have a favorite place that you served when you were on the Foreign Service?
RUNNING: Well, we really enjoyed Bangkok. We did a couple of assignments there.
WERTHEIMER: Bangkok, good food?
RUNNING: Good food.
WERTHEIMER: Will, have you been watching the Olympics?
SHORTZ: Yes, I have been quite a bit. You know, there's, you know, basketball, water polo, cycling, table tennis, of course. I had this idea this week there was something I wanted to watch. And I thought, OK, I'll bring some work down and I'll watch the TV out of the corner of my eye. But that doesn't work out so well. You know, you just end up watching TV.
WERTHEIMER: You just get totally sucked in.
SHORTZ: That's it.
WERTHEIMER: Well, now, Will, meet Eric; Eric, meet Will.
SHORTZ: Morning, Eric.
RUNNING: Morning, Will.
SHORTZ: I'm going to give you two five-letter words. Put the same pair of letters in front of each of them to completely two familiar seven-letter words. And the letters that go in the front will never be a standard prefix, like R-E. For example, if I said quire Q-U-I-R-E and tress T-R-E-S-S, you would say A-C, as in acquire and actress.
WERTHEIMER: Oh.
SHORTZ: OK? It's always two letters.
WERTHEIMER: Oh no. OK.
SHORTZ: Two letters that go in front. Here's number one: eight E-I-G-H-T and antic A-N-T-I-C.
RUNNING: Freight and frantic.
SHORTZ: Freight and frantic, good. Ounce O-U-N-C-E and avail A-V-A-I-L.
RUNNING: Trounce and travail.
SHORTZ: Trounce and travail, nice job.
WERTHEIMER: Oh, you're so much better at this than I am. I hate that.
SHORTZ: Linda, you're good too. Try this one: hoots H-O-O-T-S and price P-R-I-C-E.
RUNNING: Cahoots and caprice.
SHORTZ: Cahoots and caprice, good.
WERTHEIMER: Very good.
SHORTZ: Latin L-A-T-I-N and state S-T-A-T-E.
RUNNING: Gelatin and gestate.
SHORTZ: Gelatin and gestate, nice. Heist H-E-I-S-T and tempt T-E-M-P-T.
RUNNING: Atheist and attempt.
WERTHEIMER: Atheist.
SHORTZ: Atheist and attempt. OK. Try this: event E-V-E-N-T and orate O-R-A-T-E. OK. I'll give you a hint: it's two consonants that go in front.
RUNNING: Two consonants?
SHORTZ: Yeah. Sounds like I stumped you both. I'll just tell you the answer: is prevent and prorate.
RUNNING: Oh, OK.
SHORTZ: How about stain S-T-A-I-N and alone A-L-O-N-E.
RUNNING: Abstain and abalone.
SHORTZ: That's it. Nice job. How about this one: verge V-E-R-G-E and sable S-A-B-L-E.
WERTHEIMER: I am clueless, clueless.
SHORTZ: OK. For that first word, think of a synonym for split.
WERTHEIMER: Diverge.
RUNNING: Oh, disable.
SHORTZ: Disable, good job.
WERTHEIMER: Well, I only needed 14 hints.
SHORTZ: Here's your last one. Amble A-M-B-L-E and other O-T-H-E-R. And I'll give you a hint: it's two consonants.
RUNNING: Bramble and brother.
SHORTZ: Bramble and brother, nice job.
WERTHEIMER: Great job, Eric.
RUNNING: Thank you.
WERTHEIMER: For playing the puzzle today, you get a WEEKEND EDITION lapel pin as well as puzzle books and games. You can read all about it at npr.org/Puzzle. Eric, what public radio station do you listen to?
RUNNING: Well, we're members of both KPLU and KUOW here in Seattle.
WERTHEIMER: So, an embarrassment of riches in Seattle - two really fine stations. That's great. Eric Running of Seattle, Washington, thank you very much for playing the puzzle this week.
RUNNING: Thank you.
WERTHEIMER: Now, Will, what do you have to puzzle us with next week?
SHORTZ: Yes, this week's challenge comes from listener Annie Haggenmiller of Chimacum, Washington. Take the name of a well-known U.S. city in four syllables. The first and last syllables together name a musical instrument, and the two interior syllables name a religious official. What city is it?
So again, a well-known U.S. city, four syllables. The first and last syllables together name a musical instrument, and the two inside syllables name a religious official. What city is it?
WERTHEIMER: OK. When you have the answer, go to our website, npr.org/puzzle and click on the Submit Your Answer link - just one entry per person, please. The deadline for entries is Thursday at 3 P.M. Eastern. Please include a phone number where we can reach you at about that time. And if you are the winner we'll give you a call, and you will get to play on the air with the puzzle editor of The New York Times and WEEKEND EDITION's puzzle-master, Will Shortz.
Thank you very much, Will.
SHORTZ: Thanks, Linda.

Learning to sail the lake
The Tahoe Windjammer's Yacht Club will hit the books and the water for the 12th annual Women's Sailing Clinic this Saturday at the Tahoe Keys Marina.
From novices who don't know a jib from a boom to advanced sailors looking to learn how to handle a spinnaker, the clinic has multiple options for different levels of sailing experience. The only qualification: you have to be a woman.
"It's women teaching women. It's the atmosphere," said Erin Esposito, a member of the TWYC and one of the clinic's instructors.
The focus will primarily be on safety and learning the lingo. Students will learn radio procedure and man overboard rescue, sail trim, helming, tacking, basic knots and other techniques. And of course, they'll be augmenting their vocabulary along the way.
"All of it is really learning the nomenclature. It'll take years to learn all of it, but if you know the basics, it'll help," master sailor and TWYC member Diane Martin said.
Some terms novices might learn include "puff," a euphemism for the gusts of wind that slam into sailboats out on Lake Tahoe; the "boom," the spar – more lingo – or pole along the bottom of a sail that can hit you in the head if you're not careful; and "spinnaker," a parachute-like sail that balloons in front of the boat to pull it downwind.
The class kicks off in the classroom at 8:30 a.m. with the women separated depending on sailing ability. After the gourmet lunch at 12:30 p.m., the women can take to the boats for on-the-water instruction. Students are asked to wear white soled shoes and bring a life jacket.
Ellen Hodos participated in the clinic a few years ago to hone her skills even though she learned how to sail when she was 12 years old in New England. She said she's seen women sail around the world with their husbands, without knowing anything about sailing themselves.
"The idea is to interest and empower more women to sail on the lake. It helped them feel more confident in their skills," Hodos said.
According to Esposito and Martin, sailing is changing with more and more women getting involved in the sport. The Saturday class is just an introduction, and Martin recommended the American Sailing Association as the place to look for the next step. Ultimately, it's about logging more time on the water.
"We want you to come out, to join the yacht club and get on a boat," Martin said.

Written by John Veneziano, former Harvard Sports Information Director
They come from places as disparate as East Lyme, Conn., the
former West Germany, and from America's heartland to the Land
Down Under.
One wanted to play football at Yale. Another was raised on Harvard rowing. Two were internationally accomplished oarsmen before college, while three had no on-the-water experience prior to arriving in Cambridge. And six have never competed in a varsity race for the Crimson.
Yet they've all been vital contributors to the splendid tradition enjoyed by the oldest sport at America's oldest college. They're the 11 seniors on Harvard's heavyweight rowing team—James Bayley, Hugo Beekman, James Canning, Tom Fleming, Simon Gawlik, Sam Kenary, Billy Rueter, Henrik Rummel, Teddy Schreck, John Stroh and Matt Webb.
They're linked by a common cause: to ensure that the success, pride and continuity emblematic of the Harvard rowing program will last long after their rooms at Red Top are cleared out following this year's Regatta.
"A special camaraderie exists in the Class of '09," says team captain Schreck, who holds down the four seat in the second varsity after being part of last year's varsity eight that defeated Yale. "It's a similar bond that the Class of 2007 shared, one that inspired our class and one that will hopefully inspire classes to come. I sensed it as early as my freshman year. That's when I began to recognize the compatibility of our unique personalities. We click well."
Schreck was introduced to the sport eight years ago when he arrived at The Haverford School just outside Philadelphia. In contrast, Kenary—son of former Crimson oarsman James Kenary '78—was introduced to it when he arrived in this world.
"It's pretty funny looking through my siblings and my baby picture albums and seeing my dad holding us wearing some of the racing shirts he won when he rowed here," says the Worcester, Mass., native who strokes the Crimson's 2V. "It's nice to have earned my own over the last few years."
Rowing wasn't in Webb's blood or even on his radar. He expected his sporting exploits to take place on autumn Saturdays...in the Yale Bowl of all places. An all-conference football player at nearby East Lyme High School, he originally set his sights on attending college in New Haven before that door unceremoniously closed. So, shortly after being accepted to Harvard, he paid a visit to Red Top to find out what this crew thing was all about.
"I happened to interrupt the team's annual croquet tournament, but I was very well received," he says. "I spoke with Tom Wright [Class of 2006], who had been in a similar situation, and I was very impressed by him and the squad as a whole. They were all very thoughtful and honest."
Webb bee-lined his way to Newell Boathouse when he got to campus and has worked his way up the ranks, going from the open four that won the gold medal at last year's IRA Championships to the three seat in this spring's 2V. Yet he's not the only novice in the senior class who has blossomed during his stay at Harvard. Stroh, from Davenport, Iowa, played on a state champion soccer team and ran cross country at Bettendorf High School. Now he mans the six seat for the second varsity. Rueter was a three-sport captain at Hereford (Maryland) High School, won state titles in lacrosse and football and was an all-state selection on the gridiron.
"I was coming to Harvard for academics," says Rueter, who has moved among all the Crimson's top boats and will likely see action in the combination race against Yale. "However, during the summer after my acceptance, [head coach] Harry [Parker] sent a letter stamped with his signature asking entering freshmen to consider rowing. Considering the letter and what my father said about the sport, I thought I might try rowing in the fall—knowing it would get me in good shape—and then go out for the lacrosse team in the spring.
"My freshman roommate, by chance, was Matt Webb and we both had the same idea," Rueter continues. "I knew very little about rowing, but most athletics programs don't actively seek walk-ons. It sounded like a great opportunity. And though it took a long while to become convinced that it was a sport to which I could completely dedicate myself, now I can't get enough."
Likewise, Stroh never picked up an oar himself but had been friends with a Harvard (Otto Stegmaier '08) and a Yale (Tyler Guth '08) oarsman while in high school. "Both of them encouraged me to try the sport. Otto went so far as to give my name to [freshman coach] Bill Manning after I had been accepted. Bill's enthusiastic words about rowing at Harvard convinced me to join the program."
Canning, another multi-sport athlete, received similar encouragement at a slightly younger age. "I was really into hockey and lacrosse as a kid," says the Rye, N.Y., native who attended Deerfield Academy. "When I arrived at Deerfield, I was pretty much set on continuing those sports. My advisor, however, was the boy's crew coach. I was tall for my age (Canning now stands 6-feet, 5-inches), and he naturally tried to get me interested in rowing. Once I raced, I knew it was the sport for me.
"In all of my athletic endeavors, I had never felt the thrill that I got from racing," adds Canning. "And I loved the camaraderie that you had with your boat. There was no individual focus about who scored the most goals or who was the most skilled. In rowing, you won and lost as a boat."
It was a half-second loss to Yale as a freshman in 2006 that pushed Schreck to rededicate himself as an oarsman, and probably best explains why he now holds the distinguished title of captain.
"During the train ride home for the summer—shortly after we lost that freshman race—I sat personally disappointed with the way I had approached the year," he recalls. "Disappointing results are hard to swallow in the sport, but I have found that one's reaction to them can be extremely valuable learning experiences.
"When I got home, I did something I will never forget. Before even walking up to my room, I changed into a unisuit and put my dad's Ironman Triathlon hat on backwards. I dragged an almost unusable Model B antique ergometer out of my basement door and positioned my family's old video camera on my deck stairs so I could film myself as I rowed. I still have the tape. I vividly remember strapping my feet in, knowingly making a decision to myself that for the next three years I was going to go for 'it,' whatever 'it' was.
"The 2008 Harvard-Yale race stands as the best day of my life to date," Schreck says of the Crimson's hard-fought victory, "and I point to that moment two years earlier as the enabling factor that allowed me to experience it."
Experience is something that Rummel and Gawlik brought in abundance to Harvard. Rummel rowed on the U.S. Under-19 National Team and was part of its gold-medal crew in 2005, while a year earlier Gawlik raced in Germany's Under-23 world-champion boat. They seamlessly transitioned into college rowing, both making the varsity as sophomores and helping the Crimson to the 2007 Sprints title.
"It's not easy for me to compare the two experiences," says Gawlik, who will be in the stroke seat for the 144th Regatta. "Rowing for the German team was a big honor and something that I spent a lot of time training for. But I was mostly training alone and therefore never got the experience of being on a team.
"At Harvard, I've had the privilege of experiencing rowing on a team that is training together all year," he says. "While it was very foreign to me at first, I now think it has made me a better oarsman."
Fleming was a well-known oarsman in his native Australia, winning six different state crowns in high school and then competing for the national development squad, where he was part of two Under-19 national championships (in the pair and four) and was named the best junior oarsman in Queensland.
Now in the five seat for the second varsity, he says it's impossible to overstate the spirit that drives this senior class. "We're all great friends and that's where our motivation comes from. When you train day-in, day-out with a group of close friends, it creates a really special bond, and you no longer row for yourself but for the honor of the team."
Bayley, who moved into the varsity boat last season, believes these friendships are so strong that they overcome the jealousies or bad feelings that can develop in such a competitive atmosphere.
"Rowing can be a tough sport because of how internally competitive it is, causing friends to race one another for spots in boats," says the three-man whose younger brother, Ben, rows for the Crimson lightweights. "This can be a major source of tension, but our class has done a great job not letting that tension affect our friendships. We all get along really well."
Beekman agrees. "Something about participating on this team resonates with all of us. We have shared so many experiences—victories, defeats, and the hardships of training—that it is difficult to consider your teammates anything less than being among your closest friends."
It's an approach that has spread throughout the program, notes Rummel. "We've been an especially inclusive [senior] class, planning activities for the entire team and trying not to create any class hierarchy within the boathouse. We understand that in order to go fast we need every class to raise its game, so we've tried to push everyone equally and not leave anyone out."
Those sentiments aren't just words. Instead, they manifest in the actions of the oarsmen and their unyielding devotion to Harvard rowing.
"We put in a lot of time without the coaches requiring us to do so," explains Rueter. "The football team thinks they have it tough with 5 a.m. mandatory practices, but mandatory is easy. Try getting up every morning and rowing a pair or running a 'stadium' at 7 a.m. when you are accountable to no one but yourself and a couple of teammates.
"The culture of our team expects that guys are putting in the work it takes to make strong contributions in the spring, but we don't require it," he adds. "It is for each individual to decide his commitment. Harry lets us determine our own success."
And from top to bottom, this spring has been another Crimson success story, with the varsity in position to post its first unbeaten dual season since 2005. The top five boats—1V, 2V, 3V, 1F, and 2F—are a combined 20-3 in dual races and each made the grand finals at Sprints, with the 1V, 3V and 1F earning silver medals. The accomplishments are testament to the senior class, insists Coach Parker.
"Teddy Schreck and Sam Kenary have shown exceptional leadership this year on and off the water," says Parker. "They've kept the whole squad focused on the goals for the season and looked out for every member of the squad throughout the year. The class as a whole has shown incredible camaraderie and loyalty to one another. They have been one of the great classes of Harvard rowing."
That brings us to Yale, likely the final race for most of these seniors. The event has a way of bringing out the best in Crimson oarsmen, partially because of how it brings them together.
"If I had to point to a specific time that has shaped the friendships on our team, I would point to the weeks leading up to the H-Y Race," says Gawlik. "Whereas most of the time we're busy studying and working on campus, during this time of the year only rowing seems to matter."
Winning matters, too, as Schreck can attest. "I had always been aware of the Regatta's historical significance, but the magnitude truly struck me last June when it came time to etch my name on the door of my closet after our victory in the varsity event. I was carving my name above rowers that I had read about. I felt like I was becoming a part of the sport's history."
Rummel, the five-man in the varsity boat, notes the physical strain that accompanies such a race and admits there's no way to fully prepare for it.
"I can say with certainty that the four-mile Harvard-Yale race is the most grueling test, mentally and physically, that I've ever put on my body through. My first race [in 2007] was very tough because we were pushed by a strong Yale crew the entire way and eventually faltered in the final strokes to lose by less than a second.
"Last year's race was tougher, however, because Yale started very strong. I felt that I had to put a lot of my energy into the first half of the race to hang on and make sure we caught up to them, and by the two-mile mark I had nothing left. Truth be told, I didn't think we were going to win the race at the halfway mark because I had expended so much energy trying to cut back into their lead that I was worried I wouldn't have the energy to fight them off if they were to push us late.
"I had to dig deeper in that race than I ever had to before, and our entire crew did the same," says Rummel. "As a result, we were able to come out on top."
Still, you don't have to be in the varsity race to sense the Regatta's history or have the desire to triumph. Canning, expected to be in the Crimson's combination boat, knows that his crew's job is to get the weekend off to a good start.
"Each victory is important to us because our goal is to sweep Yale," he says. "So, the combination race is important in that it sets the tone for Saturday. The winner of that has the rock painted the next day, and I think that can be a really motivating factor for the other boats."
Kenary sums up the Regatta for all those who have ever worn a Harvard racing shirt. "My favorite and fondest experience of the H-Y race is seeing the competitiveness, excitement and joy in our coaches at Red Top. This is our biggest race of the year and a chance to celebrate our abilities, training, work, and rowing that we have been developing since September.
"I feel close to Harvard rowing all year, but at Red Top I really feel like we're a family. Last season, after we swept the Regatta, seeing Harry's excitement and pride in us was incredible. I always feel that we are all in it together down here."
And to be together at the end—no matter how far apart they were when they started—is what the Class of 2009 will remember most about rowing at Harvard.
John Veneziano is the editor of the Official Super Bowl Program. He spent 14 years (1989-2003) as Harvard's Sports Information Director, all of those as the primary contact for men's rowing. In recent years, he has covered the sport for The Boston Globe and written for the Eastern Sprints and IRA programs.

President Ma Ying-jeou (馬英九) has mishandled cross-strait relations and the government should respect Taiwan's sovereignty, safeguard the interests of its people and uphold the democratic process, the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) said yesterday.
While the DPP has always supported fair and reciprocal cross-strait economic activities, the public, the opposition and most Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) politicians were not informed of the contents of a service trade agreement set to be signed today, DPP Chairman Su Tseng-chang (蘇貞昌) said.
"It is unbelievable that in a democratic country, only a handful of high-ranking government officials know what the agreement entails. It was also unbelievable that the sectors to be included on the liberalization list and what impact the agreement could have on those sectors, their employees and Taiwan's economy remain unknown," Su said.
He said the pact should not be signed before the government submits an impact assessment report.
Su also criticized the KMT for advocating a "one China" structure to echo Beijing's "one China" framework without going through a democratic process, saying that the initiative has stripped the Taiwanese of their right to determine their own future.
"We demand that Ma explain the matter to the public clearly, without ambiguity or evasion," Su said.
DPP spokesperson Lin Chun-hsien (林俊憲) said the party condemns the opaque nature of the service trade agreement.
"Taiwanese businesses and workers are entitled to be informed of the details of the pact, which is a follow-up to the Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement [ECFA], and may affect their livelihoods. The negotiations should also be monitored by the legislature," Lin said.
Citing a recent public opinion poll conducted by the DPP's polling center, Lin said 68.4 percent of respondents said the Ma administration has failed to meet its stated goals three years after the ECFA was signed and only 9.9 percent thought that the goals have been met.
The poll, conducted on June 10 and June 11, collected 989 valid samples and had a margin of error of 3.18 percentage points.
DPP Legislator Lee Chun-yi (李俊俋) said China has refused to liberalize the sector related to intellectual property rights, which is Taiwan's most competitive service sector, while for the other four sectors — transportation, travel, insurance and finance — in which Taiwan enjoys advantages that are scheduled to be liberalized, Beijing has set up trade barriers.
"Beijing only wanted to absorb Taiwan's labor, investments and know-how in those sectors," Lee said.
Meanwhile, Taiwan Solidarity Union Chairman Huang Kun-huei (黃昆輝) said the agreement scheduled to be signed today is a ploy by the Ma administration to legalize the entry of Chinese workers to Taiwan.
The new pact would affect more than 4.7 million employees in Taiwan, he said.
The ECFA did not substantially benefit Taiwan, as the administration claims, and the government's eagerness to open the service sector to Chinese investors ignores the common worker in Taiwan and panders to the Chinese, Huang said.
"Opening the market to foreign investment is an opportunity to increase job opportunities, but opening up the service trade will only take away jobs from Taiwanese and harm Taiwanese businesses," Huang said.
Voicing doubts about the quality of the Chinese service sector, Huang said Taiwan's service quality outranked China's by a fair margin.

French interest in the China Open women's title ended on the opening day of the tournament yesterday, with both Kristina Mladenovic and Alize Cornet crashing out in the first round.
Mladenovic fought back from a set down to come within reach of forcing 12th seed Carla Suarez Navarro to a third-set tiebreak, but the Spaniard eventually claimed victory 6-2, 3-6, 7-5.
Suarez Navarro is to face German Mona Barthel in the second round of the dual ATP and WTA event, which is being played at Beijing's Olympic Park.
Cornet retired injured in the first set of her match with Francesca Schiavone, with the score 3-2 in the Italian's favor.
Schiavone potentially faces a tough task in the second round, facing either Russia's Elena Vesnina or the top seed, the US' Serena Williams.
Meanwhile, the US' Sloane Stephens cruised through to the second round, claiming victory over Canada's Aleksandra Wozniak 6-4, 6-4.
The 12th seed and US No. 2 is to face Slovakia's Magdalena Rybarikova in her next game.
Elsewhere, tenth seed Roberta Vinci beat Elina Svitolina 6-2, 6-2 to book her place in the second round.
The Italian's victory earned her a tie against either Zhang Shuai or her Chinese compatriot Peng Shuai.
The China Open began yesterday and will reach its climax on Oct. 6.
Eight of the top 10 women's players are in the draw.
The men's competition is at the qualification stage.
On Friday, top men's player Novak Djokovic was humbled by women's No. 5 Li Na in a light-humored charity match, battling both the home crowd favorite and rules that were heavily in her favor.
As Asia's first singles Grand Slam winner, 2011 French Open champion Li is used to breaking barriers in a sport she has pioneered in China.
However, with the 31-year-old giving herself an advantage of at least 30-0 in the five games she played against Serbia's Djokovic, the light-hearted match never threatened to slip from her grasp — despite the 3-2 scoreline.
Li and Djokovic traded shots, as well as well-mannered banter across the nets, in the match that was watched by 12,000 spectators at the end of an evening of friendly competition between the pair at Beijing's Olympic Park.
The exhibition match was organized to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the China Open, where qualifying matches were being played earlier on Friday.
The sport's original inter-gender contest was played 40 years ago between Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs, and King won.
Meanwhile, former China Open champion Agnieszka Radwanska said yesterday that she would aim to emulate her 2011 success, brushing aside concerns over pressure on the opening day of the tournament.
The Polish world No. 4 is seeded third in Beijing and arrives on the back of winning the Korea Open last week, before crashing out of the Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo in the quarter-finals on Thursday.
The 24-year-old is up against a strong women's field in China, including Victoria Azarenka, the world No. 2 and reigning China Open champion.
However, Radwanska said she was relaxed despite the tough competition, particularly as she had already booked her place in the US$6 million end-of-season grand finale, next month's WTA Championships in Istanbul, which features the top eight women's players.
"I'm always very, very happy that I still can be one of the top seeds here," she told reporters in Beijing. "It's never easy here, so I am just really trying not to think about any pressure, especially that I made the qualifying already for Istanbul."
