I have a slight obsession with Michael Kor's watches.
I know that every blogger and their mother has one, but they are popular for a reason. They are stunningly beautiful and not too expensive either (they're much cheaper on Amazon - if you're happy to not receive a 2 year warranty that is)
I received this beautiful watch for my birthday and now I can add it to my collection :) It is not even too heavy for work!
Do you own a Michael Kors watch?

Our No-Heat Curl tutorial series has been very popular, because a lot of teens and moms are trying to avoid using too much heat on their hair but still want voluminous curls.
It's about time that we posted another no-heat tutorial!{The styles are also popular for single or involved daddies who are intimidated by using heat tools anywhere near their daughters!}
Today we are going to teach you how to create beautiful No-Heat Bandana Curls using just a few bandanas/handkerchiefs, a few rubber bands, and a water spray bottle.
Tag your own photos of this hairstyle with: #CGHBandanaCurls
This curling technique gives you more of a wave than a full curl, and it dries fairly well because the fabric breathes and allows moisture to evaporate as you sleep. This is what helps set the curl.
We have used the curls as is, and we have also incorporated them as a base for several hairstyle combos. In this tutorial, my daughter Brooklyn simply added a simple daisy accented headband as an accessory.
This No-Heat Bandana Curls tutorial is so easy, we know that you all can do it!
Items Needed: Brush, spray bottle, 3-5 small hair elastics, hairspray and accessory {if desired}.
Time Requirement: 5 minutes
Skill Level: Easy
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Please feel free to leave me a comment below letting us know what you think of these No-Heat Banana Curls! As always, if you loved this hairstyle, please feel free to share it!
Happy Hairdoing!
This past week, my twins BrooklyAndBailey uploaded a 2-in-1 Valentine's Day Nail Tutorial video!!

What is Heat Transfer Printing?
Heat printing, also known as heat transfer printing, is the process of transferring heat-applied materials to various items (or substrates) using a heat press.
Generally speaking, the term "heat transfer printing" refers to the personalization and customization of garments, other textiles, and hard goods using a heat press. There is a wide variety of material that can be applied through heat printing, from heat transfer vinyls (commonly used on athletic uniforms), heat transfer materials featuring special effects (such as glow-in-the-dark or reflective properties), and screen printed transfers, to name just a few. Heat printing products are also referred to as heat applied graphics and heat transfers.There are several options for garment decoration, such as screen printing and embroidery. Heat printing can be used in place of other methods or to supplement them.
Transfer Paper
Using a desktop color laser copier/printer or inkjet printer, full color designs are printed onto specialized transfer papers and heat applied to apparel or fabrics. This method is quick and inexpensive, allowing almost instant customization and requiring limited inventory of goods. Photo-quality images can be quickly printed and applied to garments.While this method offers the advantage of high-quality images, it has some drawbacks. Standard transfer paper will not show white images on any garment. Because most desktop printers do not have white ink, any areas which show white on the transfer paper will show as the garment color after application. This can be avoided by using special paper for dark garments, though this paper is more expensive and has a heavier feel than standard transfer paper. Also, unless properly trimmed, most transfer papers will leave an outline of excess coating around the image when transferred onto garments. Precise (and often time-consuming) trimming must be done before application. Furthermore, transfer paper is not as long-lasting as other decorating options.
Heat Transfer Material
Often used for production of letters and numbers on T-shirts and jerseys, this method involves heat application of designs cut from vinyl, which is available in a variety of colors, textures, and effects (i.e. reflective, glow-in-the-dark, etc.). These designs can be pre-ordered from a manufacturer or custom-cut in-house using vinyl cutting equipment. Heat transfer material images are sturdy and long-lasting, and can be applied easily (using a heat press) to a number of different garments and accessories in any quantity.
Digital Printing
Digital printing describes any process which produces long-lasting full color transfers. Extremely versatile, digital printing allows images and graphics with fine details to be applied to both light and dark-colored garments.
Printable Heat Transfer Material
Combining the durability of heat transfer vinyl with the ability to produce high-quality images, this method involves using a printer/cutter to produce an image which is then weeded and heat applied. Designs can be custom-ordered from a manufacturer or produced using in-house equipment. Great for low-quantity jobs and personalization; durable full color images can be applied to garments and accessories of any color.

THE re-routing of the Ormskirk to Liverpool 351 bus service has sparked outcry with local councillors and George Howarth MP asking for the original route to be reinstated.
This revised route will mean the Park Lane area in Melling will be deprived of a direct link to Liverpool and Ormskirk.
It operated every 15 minutes along Park Lane before the route changed on January 10.
George Howarth MP is urging the chief executive of Merseytravel, Neil Scales, to help solve the problem.
He said: "The re-routing deprives people living in the Beechpark and Melling areas of a direct link to Liverpool and Ormskirk, where they can access facilities such as hospitals.
"Elderly people and those with young children will suffer particular inconvenience."
Councillor Roy Connell said: "To have a bus go around the houses is not what pensioners want.
"They want a bus which goes directly to where they want to go, they don't like chopping and changing.
"The reasons are time and mileage, it's a cost-cutting exercise.
"Old people will be cut off." Commercial manager for Arriva North West and Wales, Derek Bowes said: "Despite research showing that this section of the route was used by a very small number of customers, Arriva still operates three journeys a day on the 351 along Park Lane.
"All other journeys now by-pass this road, which allows us to save time, thus making the service more reliable and attractive to the majority of people who use it."
He added: "I would like to apologise to anyone who feels disadvantaged by this move but would ask them to recognise that we must allocate resources to where they are of most benefit to most people."
De-regulation blamed
MERSEYTRAVEL, the public sector body which co-ordinates public transport throughout Merseyside, blames deregulation for the problem.
A spokesman said: "The rerouting of service 351 was a commercial decision taken by Arriva over which we have no control.
"It is typical of a problem which has occurred on numerous occasions since bus deregulation and we are lobbying hard at Government level for changes to the current transport legislation to bring in a better system for the provision of bus services.
"Merseytravel is currently looking at various options but these would have to be financed out of public funds at a time when our budget is limited."
He added: "We would point out that from Monday to Friday two morning peak commercial journeys still travel from Liverpool via School Lane (for Ashworth Hospital) to Ormskirk, with one return evening peak journey.
"Park Lane is served by Merseytravel supported services between 9:42am and 4.02pm Monday to Friday and 08:04 to 7:02pm on Saturdays.
"Evenings and Sundays, the Merseytravel supported service 250 provides a half-hourly link from Park Lane/Ashworth Hospital to Maghull and Liverpool."

when did phil get some style riding cable?
dirtycoat, it was good for phil, you can't deny that.
donny, if you must know, he had an earpiece in and _________ (i can't say the secret rider's name) was telling him what tricks to do. he's obviously spent enough time on a board that he should have some style. But, I don't think anybody believes he's creative enough to come up with some of those maneuvers.
looks like he's still getting used to it behind the boat. he's not jumping very high compared to the younguns. maybe it was the camera angle.
I like Phil's new image (in progess). He killed it.
nice! good songs, riding, and talking. these new "parts" makin me dig
phil more. good stuff!
I'm liking this new phil. He seems a lot more grounded and fun. Looking forward to seeing what he does with CTRL this year!
Phil's cable riding is on point!
Let's hear it for 1:15 as well as all of the Jack White lovin'. I'm excited for what Phil and CTRL have in store.

Kansas City Cyclones Quebec Nordiques New Jersey Devils picked up Alexei Ponikarovsky for pocket lint and a firm handshake from the Carolina Hurricanes. The fifteen points he racked up in Raleigh put him equal with rookie defenseman Adam Larsson who is playing his first season of North American hockey. If that doesn't put the rest of the eastern conference back on their heels nothing will.
Pernell Slewban is at it again. The Canadiens defenseman who is developing a not quite flattering reputation had another $2500 lifted from his pocket for the incident. This is the same player who got Mike Richards to say unkind things in the press about him, and teammate Hal Gill to remonstrate him in front of the media for being a slob in the locker room. One can only wonder when Subban will focus enough on playing the game to have more stories written about his game winning goals, glorious defensive plays and slick passes than about the boneheaded things he does.
If the playoffs started going into today's action: three teams in the east would make the playoffs who did not last season, only one team who was out in the west last year would be in.
Lot's of fun games on the schedule:
- The Battle of Alberta is rejoined. The Oilers offense against the Flames goaltending provides a nice contrast.
- The Kings and Avalanche are trying to climb a bit higher in the standings and are currently rubbing elbows and 7th and 8th.
- Panthers vs Jets: With a win or overtime loss the Panthers reclaim first in the division, with a regulation win the Jets will climb to within one point of the division lead.

The smartphone had received around seven crore registrations when it was announced in February. Earlier, the company had promised to finish all deliveries of Freedom 251 by June.
To recall, the Freedom 251 smartphone is priced at Rs 251 (excluding delivery charges). Ringing Bells is yet to showcase the final product. Earlier, the company had handed over a smartphone made by a different company to journalists for reviewing purposes and justified by claiming it as a prototype device and that the final Freedom 251 handset would be similar.
For the price of Rs 251, the company promises to offer a 4-inch qHD display with 960x540 pixels resolution with Android 5.1 Lollipop operating system, 1.3GHz quad-core processor 1GB of RAM, 8GB of internal storage (up to 32GB expandable), 3.2MP rear camera, 0.3MP front facing camera, 3G, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS and a 1,450 mAh battery.
Surprisingly, the company is hopeful about making profits from the Freedom 251 which comes with a bill of materials worth Rs 2,500. While the question, how is it possible to price a smartphone this cheap can be best answered by the company's president Ashok Chadha, what consumers should really be worried about is whether they will get smartphone and will it deliver on the basic usability it promises.

I knew things were going too well!
I knew that with everything I wanted falling perfectly into place, there was going to be a wrench thrown into the works!
I knew it!
I just knew it!
You know my brand new car that I've only had since February/March?
Well, it's in the shop getting a brand new engine!
It all started with the low tire pressure light coming on when the tires were just fine. Then it went to the low oil pressure light and eventually the check engine light.
First thing Monday morning I called the Jeep dealership and was told that they could get me in on Tuesday, July 19th at 1:30 PM. I might have thrown a fit.....asking what I was supposed to do in the mean time. The girl told me that the lights were on, but as long as they weren't flashing it was still OK to drive the car.
I just sat there speechless until she finally asked, "Ma'am, are you still there?"
I responded with, "Oh my God, I bought a lemon didn't I?"
She placed me on hold for a few minutes and came back to tell me to bring the car in the next day at 10:30 AM.
Isn't it funny how that happens?
I showed up yesterday and waited at the dealership for a little over an hour before it was suggested that I take their shuttle home. They got the low tire pressure and the check engine light to go off, but they weren't sure what was up with the oil pressure light and needed to do further diagnostic testing because it was showing a reading of 0% oil pressure. I was very nicely assured that I shouldn't worry about a thing because everything was under warranty and I wouldn't have to spend a dime.
This did not make me feel better!
I waited for another hour and the shuttle driver still hadn't made an appearance so I stood up to walk around for a bit. I wondered outside and was standing there just watching other people getting into their cars and driving away with no problem. There were a couple of men sitting at a picnic table near me talking and laughing, but I didn't pay much attention to them.
My service rep saw me standing there and assured me that the shuttle van would be ready for me in just a few minutes. They were just working on the schedule for the day to see who needed to be picked up and brought in and blah, blah, blah....
I told her that another hour had gone by and I was wondering if she had heard anything else about my car. She told me that the test they needed to run was very intense and that the guys asked for an hour just to go over the results after it was done, so it was going to take some time and would probably be Wednesday before they could get me back into my car.
I again stated my unhappiness with a new car having this kind of problem and she again assured me that I wouldn't have to pay anything because everything is still under full warranty.
This still did not make me feel better!
As we were talking, a guy walked up carrying an oil pan. He told the service rep I was talking to to look into the pan. She did and said, "Shaving!" like it was a good thing or something. He, more realistically, said, "There aren't shavings! Look at this!" Then he held up a handful of small metal pieces and said, "I have no idea where these came from or why they're here. It's like something exploded in here and I've got a 0% oil pressure reading."
It was at this time that I pointed out that it was my car he was talking about and asked what in the world was going on and how was I supposed to feel comfortable with a new car that was having this problem.
He then took up the company line and assured me that everything was under warranty and wasn't going to cost me anything. It was just one of those one in a million things that happens and they were going to get it fixed for me and I shouldn't worry about anything.
I replied with a very bad four letter word that starts with the letter F and followed it up with the words "my life".
The lady turned her back to me and spoke lowly in hopes that I wouldn't hear her tell the guy to please stop talking because I was already freaking out.
I said no, that I wanted him to keep talking because I was paying a lot of money for that car and it's brand new and I never had these problems when I drove a VW.
The guy said his worry was that if there were metal pieces in the oil pan then there were metal pieces everywhere. The lady said, "Let's get you in a rental!" I repeated the same three words from before.
The guy took my sad little oil pan filled with metal pieces and left and the lady went to get the paperwork she needed to get me in a loaner/rental car for the next couple of days.
When she came back, she asked me to follow her and she would take me over to get a loaner. She stopped by the picnic table where the men were still sitting and told one of them that i wasn't going to need a lift home because they going to get me a car.
That's right, all this time I was sitting around waiting for the shuttle driver and he was sitting outside at the picnic table laughing it up with his buddies.
We get to the other side of the lot in time to see the guy who works for Hertz walk out of the office. The lady made all kinds of over dramatic hand signals to get his attention. I could tell she was silently saying, "I don't know where you're going, but please come back because this lady is pissed!"
She opened the door to his office and told me to go ahead and have a seat. The Hertz guy walked into the building and she tried again to speak very lowly to him, but again, it didn't work!
She had a great big smile on her face and tried to make it look like she was having a normal casual conversation as she whispered to him what was going on. I heard him tell her, "Well, we don't have any cars but I'll get her into something."
Seriously, someone needs to teach to these people how to whisper!
The lady took off back to her side of the dealership and the Hertz guy came into his office and greeted me by asking how my day was going.
I'm sure he still regrets that question! I'm also sure he regrets his next statement, "So, I take it you weren't planning to have your car serviced today."
He got me out of his office and into a Dodge Journey in record time. LOL!
I woke up Wednesday morning and called the the Jeep dealership to get an update and that's when they told me that I was getting a brand new engine because of that freak one in a million thing that happened and it will probably be early next week before my car is fixed.
It doesn't matter how many times I asked exactly what that "freak one in a million thing" was I
couldn't get a direct answer. I just kept getting told that everything was under warranty and being taken care of and it wasn't going to cost me a thing and I didn't have anything to worry about, blah, blah, blah...
I don't feel better!
Why won't they just answer my question and tell me exactly what happened and what caused it? What is it they don't want me to know?
There were no problems when I took the car in for an oil change last month. I just can't get over the feeling that this is all the result of something that they did or didn't do when the oil was changed and my tires were rotated.
However, it looks like I'll never really know because..... it's all under full warranty and isn't going to cost me a thing......
Guess who is going to start doubling up on the car payments in an effort to trade this thing in sooner than she had originally planned?

When girls in poor countries are forced to do household chores, their whole conception of themselves changes. Rather than imagine themselves as success stories outside the home, they begin to think housework is all that girls do.
"The gendered distribution of chores can socialize girls into thinking that such domestic duties are the only roles girls and women are suited for, curtailing their dreams and narrowing their ambitions," a new report from UNICEF says.
The "chore gap" between girls and boys in developing countries is persistent and insidious, limiting life chances among the 1.1 billion under-18 girls in the world. In all, girls do 40% more cooking, cleaning, and caring for family members than boys: 160 million more hours a year.
UNICEF says boys and girls start relatively equal. By age three or four, kids are developmentally similar. Girls and boys participate in pre-primary education at the same rate (though only 66% of the time). Gaps start appearing after that: in West and Central Africa, for example, only 79 girls are enrolled in secondary school for every 100 boys. Similarly, in the home, girls five to nine spend 30% more time, or 40 million more hours a day, on household chores compared to boys their age. At the age of 10 to 14, the chore gap is up to 50%, or 120 million more hours each day.
"The overburden of unpaid household work begins in early childhood and intensifies as girls reach adolescence," says UNICEF's Anju Malhotra in a press release. "Girls sacrifice important opportunities to learn, grow, and just enjoy their childhood."
Time for boys to do their fair share around the home.

Understand where we came from.
Whether you're an avid student of the Bible or a skeptic of its relevance, "The Book That Made Your World" will transform your perception of its influence on virtually ever facet of Western civilization.
Indian philosopher Vishal Mangalwadi reveals the personal motivation that fueled his own study of the Bible and systematically illustrates how its precepts became the framework for societal structure throughout the last millennium. From politics and science, to academia and technology, the Bible's sacred copy became the key that unlocked the Western mind.
Through Mangalwadi's wide-ranging and fascinating investigation, you'll discover:
What triggered the West's passion for scientific, medical, and technological advancementHow the biblical notion of human dignity informs the West's social structure and how it intersects with other worldviewsHow the Bible created a fertile ground for women to find social and economic empowermentHow the Bible has uniquely equipped the West to cultivate compassion, human rights, prosperity, and strong familiesThe role of the Bible in the transformation of educationHow the modern literary notion of a hero has been shaped by the Bible's archetypal protagonistJourney with Mangalwadi as he examines the origins of a civilization's greatness and the misguided beliefs that threaten to unravel its progress. Learn how the Bible transformed the social, political, and religious institutions that have sustained Western culture for the past millennium, and discover how secular corruption endangers the stability and longevity of Western civilization.Endorsements:
"This is an extremely significant piece of work with huge global implications. Vishal brings a timely message." (Ravi Zacharias, author, Walking from East to West and Beyond Opinion)
"In polite society, the mere mention of the Bible often introduces a certain measure of anxiety. A serious discussion on the Bible can bring outright contempt. Therefore, it is most refreshing to encounter this engaging and informed assessment of the Bible's profound impact on the modern world. Where Bloom laments the closing of the American mind, Mangalwadi brings a refreshing optimism." (Stanley Mattson, founder and president, C. S. Lewis Foundation)
"Vishal Mangalwadi recounts history in very broad strokes, always using his cross-cultural perspectives for highlighting the many benefits of biblical principles in shaping civilization." (George Marsden, professor, University of Notre Dame; author, Fundamentalism and American Culture)
"The Indian perspective is a breath of fascinating fresh air for American readers. I wish and pray that it finds readers willing to have their minds shaken and their hearts, yes, their hearts, stirred as well." (James W. Sire, author, The Universe Next Door and Habits of the Mind)
"This book is well overdue If there is one book that has shaped Europe's art, architecture, commerce, education, ethics, family life, freedom, government, healthcare, law, language, literature, music, politics, science, social reform, and much more, it is the Bible. Yet biblical illiteracy is almost universal in Europe today. We need Vishal's clear, prophetic, Eastern voice to jolt us back to reality before our rich biblical heritage slips beyond our grasp." (Jeff Fountain, director, Schuman Centre for European Studies, the Netherlands)
"Vishal's book is one of a kind-vast in scope, penetrating in its depth, and prophetic in its message. If we fail to listen and recover the importance of the Bible in personal and public life, then the sun may set on the West. This book is a tract for our times and a must-read for anyone concerned with impacting our culture." (Art Lindsley, author, C. S. Lewis's Case for Christ)
"With solid, detailed information, clarity of presentation, and logical force, Vishal Mangalwadi enables anyone willing to see how our 'Western' world depends entirely upon what the Bible, and it alone, teaches about reality and how to live." (Dallas Willard, author, The Divine Conspiracy and The Great Omission)

The controversy over employees at an insurance company call centre adopting fake Swiss names instead of foreign ones has put the issue of surnames and nationality in the spotlight.
A recent news report revealed that Swiss Life allows staff to adopt a common Swiss surname, rather than use their own real but foreign-sounding name. The company says it is only meant to simplify communication.
So what names are they likely to use on the phone? "Müller", the most popular surname in Switzerland? Or "Schmid" or "Meier"? They are the second and third most common.
Call centre workers who chose to change their names when calling customers said it made things easier. Even Swiss workers with complicated names swapped them for simpler Swiss aliases.
"Closing a deal is hard enough but with a complicated name it makes it doubly so," one employee told the tabloid newspaper Blick.
The call centre manager told Blick that the use of false names was "common practice" by "everyone in the industry". In an article in the Sonntagszeitung newspaper, Dieter Fischer, president of the call centre association Callnet, denied that was the case.
"Such an approach is not tolerated," he told the newspaper. According to him, the practice violates Callnet's code of ethics for ensuring trustworthy and transparent customer contacts.
On Tuesday, Swiss Life defended the practice stating that "the use of false names is not discriminatory and does not caused damage to someone's personal integrity". According to Swiss Life, nine out of 19 call staff members used false names, all on a voluntary basis.

How to Buy Designer clothing Online
Companies all over the world sell their items on the web and a great spot to buy mens clothing without having to range from store to store attempting to find something to enhance your wardrobe. tailoring shop
Before you go on the web and start shopping, it's a good idea to understand you are interested in.

This can be useful when you are getting a variety of items, also providing you the ability to compare prices from different companies to obtain the the one which best matches your bank account. Remember most new business organisations offer men's clothing at reduced prices because they don't possess the cost of an increased street rent, and that means you can find leading branded items at the fraction of the items you'll pay in case you walked in to a store right now to buy the same item.
Quality is an extremely essential point instead of the best to determine when shopping online. The business ought to provide quite a few info on each one of the products, including the material, amount of each materials used, giving you some indication on what you happen to be buying.
Ensure you know their returns policy, take the time to see this, then when the product arrives and it's really not the standard you were expecting, it is possible to return an item and obtain reimbursement. This is the easy order online for men's clothing, always ensuring the product you obtain will be the quality expected.
Always take the time to read their size guide and bring your own measurements. Remember a couple of jeans bought at a local store in the city will not be exactly the same in terms of size as a set of two jeans manufactured by another leading manufacturer. Even though the sizes will often be similar, each manufacturer's size guide differs. Make certain you are sensitive to your size then choose the item determined by this size. tailoring shop
What you may do, make certain you return goods that are so big. You'll find nothing worse that poor fitting designer clothing that's too large, it appears messy as well as doesn't offer that sophisticated and stylish fashion choice you're looking to achieve.
Make sure to look at company's transport information, with their terms and conditions. Each company has their particular set of rules which they abide to, this can be shipping times and costs to dispatch times. This is extremely important, particularly if you will need an item on the go.
The power to buying men's clothing on the web is the particular it offers a superior, a chance to compare costs and return belongings you don't feel suit your expectations. Concurrently, this will help save time and energy, getting your items brought to your door inside the shortest time period.

Only invest in reputable companies that have a great online reputation. A few wide amount of independent review sites which you could read honest customer opinions when it comes to product and repair, ensuring you acquire men's clothing coming from a company that can always offer you superior service along with the best quality branded clothing at huge discounts.

Dorm Room Dinner: Burritos (Chipotle Style)
So, when we moved away from Chipotle (and every other Mexican restaurant ever), and into the Little Italy of Boston (aka the North end) I figured it was time to make these myself. John loves getting to pick his toppings so on the countertop I set up "stations". Each was basically a bowl of whatever I had on hand. Think Mozzerella versus Cheddar, and homemade pico de gallo instead of salsa.
After we're done putting our toppings on them, comes the rolling part. We have serious issues when it comes to rolling our burritos. Actually, the problem might arise with the fact that we like to stuff the burritos to epic proportions. Then, we try to roll them; stuffed. It just never works out! Make them tonight with some extra rice for Wednesday's recipe. It's going to be GREAT!
Serves: 2
1 cup rice (I use brown and white)
2 tablespoons cajun seasoning (or taco seasoning)
1 cup vegetables (I like to use a pepper mix and mushrooms)
1/2 pound meat (chicken, pork, or steak)
1 cup shredded cheese
2/3 cup salsa
1/3 cup guacamole
4 tortillas
Cook rice according to package directions but add one tablespoon of seasoning to the boiling water. Cook until the rice is finished and set aside. Cut the vegetables (I usually use 2 peppers and a handful of mushrooms). In a small pan, saute the vegetables over medium. Once wilted, add the vegetables to a bowl. Cut the meat into small strips and add it to the pan with seasonings. Cook on low until warmed through (about 5 minutes), stir often. Add the meat to a second bowl. Place condiments like cheese, salsa, or guacamole into individual bowls. Give each person a tortilla and let them fill their tortilla with their choice of rice, vegetables, meat, and then condiments. Roll and serve.
Start with the rice, just like Chipotle does! That gives the burrito the type of layered feel that their burritos have. It also helps when you roll it up, the condiments get smushed in the middle. So delicious!
Save that rice for Wednesday!
Until the next time my oven is on...

KNOXVILLE – Olympic gold medalist and alumna Benita Fitzgerald Mosley will address graduates at the fall commencement ceremony for the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, set for 9:00 a.m., Friday, December 9, in the Thompson-Boling Assembly Center and Arena.
Undergraduate and graduate students who have completed degree programs during the summer or fall semesters will receive diplomas. Students being awarded post-graduate degrees will be honored in a graduate hooding ceremony at 4:30 p.m., Thursday, Dec. 8, in Thompson-Boling Arena. The undergraduate commencement ceremony will be webcast live at http://tinyurl.com/d682otu/.
Mosley, a 1984 graduate of the College of Engineering, also served as the keynote speaker for the fiftieth anniversary of African American undergraduates at UT in February.
"Commencement is a time of great celebration at UT and I am honored to have Benita as our speaker," said Chancellor Jimmy G. Cheek. "She has achieved many exceptional goals in her life and career, and I look forward to her inspiring message to our students."
Mosley currently serves as USA Track & Field's (USATF) chief of sport performance. In this role, she oversees USATF's high-performance and athlete development programs, Team USA management, elite athlete services, sport science and medicine, anti-doping, coaching education and certification, and national championship meet management.
She also is currently chair of the Board of Trustees of the Women's Sports Foundation, and is a former member of the advisory boards of iVillage and WE: Women's Entertainment and the Project 30 Task Force for USA Track & Field.
Mosley was a record-breaking member of the Lady Vols track and field team in the early 1980s. During that time she was a gold medalist in the 1983 Pan American Games, an eight-time national champion, and a fourteen-time All-American.
She won a gold medal in the 100-meter hurdles in the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles, making her just the second American woman and the first African American woman to accomplish this feat. She was a member of the 1980 and 1984 Olympic Teams and an alternate on the 1988 team.
Mosley was named Hurdler of the Decade for the 1980s by Track and Field News, Sportswoman of the Century by The Potomac News and Top Female Sports Figure of the Century from Virginia by Sports Illustrated.
Following her 1984 graduation, Mosley designed and developed software and hardware systems for Navy, Army, and Air Force defense contractors. In 1991, she became regional director for Special Olympics International in Washington, DC, and then served as program director for the marketing division of the Atlanta Committee for the Olympic Games from 1993 to 1995.
In 1995, Mosley joined the US Olympic Committee holding several positions including director of Olympic Training Centers, director of the Olympic Training Center in San Diego, and director of all public relations programs. The following year, she was selected as one of eight US Olympians to carry the Olympic Flag into the stadium during the opening ceremonies of the 1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta.
In 2001, Mosley joined Women in Cable Telecommunications (WICT), the oldest and largest organization serving women professionals in the cable industry, as president and CEO. Because of her achievements, Mosley was named Cable TV Executive of the Year by Television Week Magazine.
She has been inducted into the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame, the Virginia High School Hall of Fame, and the Penn Relays Hall of Fame. She is also a charter member of the University of Tennessee Lady Vols Hall of Fame. Mosley was recently honored as one of seventy-five former student-athletes chosen to commemorate the seventy-fifth anniversary of the Southeastern Conference.
Mosley lives in Haymarket, Virginia, with her husband, Ron, and their two children.
Parking for commencement is available at any student parking area on campus. Parking for disabled persons is available in the Neyland Drive garage (G-10). For a campus parking map, visit http://www.utk.edu/maps/campus/.
