The perfect flats
"These flats feel and look amazing. I wore them all weekend in California for my cousin's wedding and I never had to even break them in. They fit perfectly and are great for formal occasions or work apparel. They were comfy throughout my entire trip! I highly recommend them. Totally worth the money."

Nice shoe
"I needed a pair of ballet flats for work because my high heels were damaging my feet. I've worn Bandolino heels in the past (currently own 4 pairs) and I think they are great, comfortable shoes. These are the first flats I bought and they have a basic comfort to them. I wore them on the train, walked 1/2 mile and stood for the next 2 hours the first time I wore them. They were a bit sore bc they don't really have much cushion. The toe adds a cute little burst of flare too. If I had a wide foot, I would not get these. They fit the bill for the price."

A *MUST* have shoe!!!
"I love these shoes so much that I just bought these for the second time! I first bought the Bandolino Skylar Ballet Flat in the red and love them. These are so great that I had to have them in another color! (wishing the blue were still in stock) I just received the black and wore them yesterday right away and already comfortable and a great fit. The detailing on the toe make these shoes extra special dressing up jeans and complimenting any dress or work outfit. I love a pointy toe shoe and this shoe will not disappoint!"

They trust friends' recommendations and often buy in stores, Forrester says.
Don Davis
The path a consumer takes from thought to purchase has changed dramatically with the proliferation of product information sources and shopping channels. A new report from Forrester Research Inc. concludes that the Internet plays a big role in product discovery and research, and is gaining on physical stores when it comes to closing the sale.
After the purchase, social media is becoming more important as a growing number of consumers are engaging with brands, says the report, "Fragmented Path-To-Purchase Demands Everywhere Marketing," by analyst Corinne Munchbach.
Along the path to purchase, consumers have many options, and the ones they choose vary based on the product category and the individual shopper's motivation, the report says. Munchbach encourages marketers to discard the concept of a purchase funnel, and think more of the "customer life cycle," with four stages: product discovery, exploration and research, purchase and post-purchase engagement.
How do today's online consumers discover products? Word of mouth leads the way, cited by 80% of online consumers surveyed by Forrester in the third quarter of 2012. But Internet search engines were a close second, at 79%, followed by TV ads, 71%, seeing a physical display or ad, 51%, ads in the mail, 51%, and other browsing on the web, 41%.
In the research phase, however, the web dominates. When asked how they recently sought more information about a product, 62% said via a search engine, 60% from a manufacturer's web site, 57% from a retailer's web site and 42% by visiting a bricks-and-mortar store.
When it comes to making the purchase, 67% say it is likely they will buy in a physical store in the next six months versus 58% who say they'll probably buy online via a computer. The responses dropped off dramatically after that, with tablet computer following at 14%, a phone order after viewing a catalog, 14%, and buying from a smartphone, 11%.
The report notes that consumers now expect to be able to interact with retailers in many ways—40% say they're more likely to purchase from a company that offers a variety of purchasing channels. "So while online commerce still makes up less than 10% of overall retail sales in the U.S., the piece of the pie will continue to grow, and the advantages of having an online option will continue to meet consumers' growing expectations," Munchbach writes.
Post-purchase service is important, the report says, noting that 69% of consumers say they would recommend a brand that makes it easy to resolve a problem, whereas only 4% would talk up a store, company or manufacturer that makes it hard to get satisfaction.
The report also notes that 78% of online adults can be motivated to interact with brands, and encourages chief marketing officers to woo customers with targeted offers, quality products and good service.
"Digital platforms enable the formation of deeper relationships between people and brands, and savvy CMOs will seize the opportunity to deliver new value and earn engagement in return," Munchbach writes. She points to Nike Inc.'s use of social media and communities, and says it's enabled the athletic shoe and apparel maker to capture large amounts of data about how consumers live and work out. "It will be a fine line to walk in the foreseeable future as all parties learn what the appropriate balance is," the report concludes, "but over the next several years, expect much more intimate exchanges between the brand and the customer."

Therapy For Your Feet
"It's not surprising that Brooks makes phenomenal running shoes, however there are instances where the majority may disagree on what is and what isn't desirable.For example- I've used the Ghost 4 and honestly felt that the DNA cushioning in the forefoot area is somewhat uncomfortable and distributed awkwardly. I also felt that for higher-arched runners that there isn't enough support. Furthermore the "cushioning" that so many were boasting about felt mediocre at best. I'm only 158 lbs and so while not a lightweight runner, not a heavyweight by any means either and I was surprised.However, the Brooks Glycerin 9 does NOT disappoint in any way, shape, or form. There is sufficient arch support for moderate - high arched runners. The DNA cushioning runs throughout the length of the shoe and it functions extremely well without feeling too "squishy" and there is plenty of room in the toebox area for those with slightly wider feet like myself.This is NOT a race-day shoe as it does feel a bit "clog-like", however for normal every-day use (i.e. walking, jogging, going around town) I would say that this is the best out of the Brooks line for practical purposes.I've also found that they look adequately fashionable with a pair of jeans and they are beautifully designed.All in all, a great shoe and for DSW rewards members you can get a pair at an amazing price!"

GDB22: Another Matinee
November 28 2008 10:37PM
What could be more exciting than a matinee game against the St. Louis Blues? How about an Oilers team that could very well lose the game?
We don't know what to make of this squadron. What happened to the team that was going to come in first in the Northwest? What happened to the team MacT basically told "don't be too confident lads. Take 'er as she comes" a few short months ago? The Oil got 99 problems and over confidence ain't one.
What happened to the team that made us buy Oilers Pyjamas and A Dustin Penner Snuggle Bug Teddy Bear? (trademark pending)
The only thing more exciting this game is, well pretty much everything. So of course we will be watching.
Damn you Oilers. You had better win.
November 29 2008, 02:05PM
Penner's playing like a few mill here today.
Andy Murray look like he's been dead for years.

November 29 2008, 02:06PM
Penner is why we got two goals. Unreal.

Horcoff's rolling the Gordie Howe hat trick.
November 29 2008, 02:07PM
You know what I think it is, we need to have more injuries. We always seem to play better when everyone is hurt.
November 29 2008, 02:07PM
TB: The bandwagon is more of a dumptruck. People are jumping off at record pace.
November 29 2008, 02:07PM
Penner HOrcs and Hemmer...NICE
a victory with injuries. go figure.
November 29 2008, 02:09PM
OIlers are a better team with the lead. It opens this ice and then can use they're speed. The are also a more effective team when we're down by two.
Points out that we need the open ice to be effective.
November 29 2008, 02:10PM
And with that goal Somebody wins a hoover and MacT wins another day of coaching in the NHL.
November 29 2008, 02:11PM
Don't kid yourself FAAG MacT will never be fired. The .500 records will continue for a long time.

So now that the first two lines seem to be playing well, how long before MacT breaks them up??
November 29 2008, 02:20PM
Also agreed as much as I would love it. MacT's job is safe, Kayz seems content to hang with his glory years buddies
November 29 2008, 02:20PM
Too bad Hemmer
November 29 2008, 02:21PM
going on the Powerplay!
November 29 2008, 02:21PM
BAGGED... I told you, no need for penicillon (sp) Brown sugar is all you need.

Sam, you're sucking a million meat pipes lately how do you feel?
SG: Well I've just got to keep working hard and hope to get some bounces.
Yeah but Sam, you're really being a non scoring faggo+ basically you're useless out there.
SG: That's true but I've been getting lots of support from the coaches and a lot of chances.
No Sam, you're not understanding. You're having a sophomore slump, and you're playing like Cory Cross.
November 29 2008, 02:25PM
Gagner needs a goal...a good one. Highlight reel style
November 29 2008, 02:25PM
"You're having a sophomore slump, and you're playing like Cory Cross."
HA...thats awesome....Cory Cross
November 29 2008, 02:26PM
SG: Agreed but Cory played many years in the league and if the type of veteran I strive to be.
November 29 2008, 02:27PM
You know what, Backes is going to get through this game unscathed. No message sent
November 29 2008, 02:28PM
HG that's not true, MacTavish is driving the bus and Backes needs to walk to his car.
November 29 2008, 02:30PM
That's type of leadership we need.
November 29 2008, 02:32PM

Boubín Forest in Šumava is perhaps more famous, but not the oldest. The oldest nature reserve in the Czech Republic and Central Europe is located in the Novohradské Mountains near the Czech-Austrian border. It includes the Žofín Forest National Nature Reserve and the Hojná voda National Natural Landmark.
+420 380 311 890
Europe's first nature reserve, Hojnovoda and Žofín Forest, was declared in 1838. The owner of the Novohradské domains, Count Jiří František August Buquoy, is credited with establishing it. This learned nobleman once took an inspection tour in the forest district around the sources of the Lužnice and was so enchanted by the untouched parts of the forest that by a special decree of 28 August 1838 the Žofín Forest reserve was founded near the village of Žofín. Just two days later followed the establishment of the forest reserve Hojná voda.
The Žofín Forest National Nature Reserve with an area of 100 ha is located on the gentle northern slopes of Silver Hill, southeast of the village of Žofín at an altitude of 735-825 meters. Like Boubín in Šumava, Žofín Forest is fenced in and taking a look inside is only possible with a guide or from the paved forest roads lining the fence. You can take your car as far as the former Žofín hunting lodge with guesthouse and restaurant, but then you have to continue on foot or on bike, which is preferred given the long distances and very difficult terrain. The trail running along Žofín Forest will lead you to the former Terčí huť, and from there you can continue, for example, to the former settlement of Stříbrná Huť or to Pohoří in Šumava.
Smaller, closer to civilization and more accessible is the Hojná voda National Natural Monument. Although its official name does not include forest and its wild character suffered during the World Wars, when the strongest firs were harvested for shipbuilding, you can still discover here remnants of ancient beech forests with spruce, fir, elm and maple trees. This reserve with an area of 8.56 hectares is located on the slope of Mount Vysoká (1034 meters) and it is easy to get to along the paved forest roads from the village of Hojná voda. A 3 km long nature trail lines the forest. A commemorative plaque inserted in 1988 in one of the stones along the way celebrates 150 years since the declaration of the reserve.

Liveclicker's MobileStudio app includes templates and licensed music for fast product video production.
Amy Dusto
MobileStudio is a new app that helps retailers quickly create product videos using an iPhone, iPad or iPad mini. It allows retailers to scale up their video production, perhaps making 20 or 40 videos per day, without needing to spend lots of time and money on studio production, says Justin Foster, co-founder of the company that built the app, Liveclicker, which provides video products and services for e-commerce.
The app comes with movie templates, pre-licensed music and editing features like fade-ins that are designed to be easy for anyone to use, he says. Two people can make a video in minutes, with one shooting and one demonstrating the product features on camera, he says. Liveclicker automatically creates a desktop, smartphone and tablet version of each video a retailer shoots.
MobileStudio is available for free for Liveclicker customers, who pay a monthly fee for the vendor's services, Foster says. Liveclicker includes a list of recommended add-ons to use with the app, such as a tripod and lenses that attach to an iPad case, and says the total cost of an entire setup including the iPad runs $1,500 to $2,000.
The small set-up enables retailers to justify making more videos that are shorter in length, not having to bring the resources of a full-blown studio to bear for a quick, simple clip. As mobile by nature begets a shorter attention span, the ability to quickly and efficiently create short video clips for mobile web sites will be increasingly important for e-retailers, Foster says.
Compared to shoppers who watch longer product videos, those who watch presentations lasting 90 seconds or less purchase 24.7% more often, spend 14.1% more for each video play and complete their purchases 15.1% more quickly, Foster says. Liveclicker compared behaviors after consumers watched 22,000 product videos on the web sites of its clients across 12 industries, including e-commerce. Consumer electronics is the only category for which shorter videos don't outperform longer ones, he says, likely because those goods are more complex and consumers give them more consideration before buying.
Additionally, while Foster doesn't yet have data about mobile video consumption as it compares to desktop viewing, he says it's clearly on the rise.
One retailer that agrees is web-only bags seller eBags Inc., No. 149 in the Internet Retailer Top 500. In 2012, eBags had 480,000 unique visitors to its mobile site each month, and those shoppers accounted for $8.065 million in sales, or 5.4% of the retailer's $150 million in web sales for 2012, according to Internet Retailer estimates. In Q1 2013, 16% of traffic stemmed from tablets; 90% of tablet traffic came from iPads. During the same quarter, 16% of traffic stemmed from smartphones; 12% of total traffic came from iPhones and 3.5% of total traffic came from Android phones.
Customers who watch short—one-minute or less—product videos on eBags' web site convert 37.3% more often than those who do not, generate 21.5% more revenue for each video play and purchase items 5.7% faster after watching, says eBags co-founder and executive vice president Peter Cobb.
"Now so many people access our site via mobile devices," he says. "So we feel like video is ideal for the way people are engaging with us."
EBags has about 800 videos on its web site and would like to increase that to 5,000, Cobb says. He is looking into MobileStudio as a way to that cost effectively. Normally, eBags selects about 40 products every few months and shoots videos of those items at a production studio. The e-retailer spends at least another week working on edits with the specialists, he says. A single video produced that way can cost around $300, he says. Because some products are in stock for only a few months, such as a $120 handbag, he says the cost and effort of shooting videos for those products isn't always worth it.
"It may not eventually be the same quality, but if you can produce 20 or 100 times the quantity, you'll be better off from a sales standpoint and a customer standpoint," he says. "If you can have five videos in a month of Academy Award-winning quality or 500 videos a month and have something appropriate for your customer base, any of us would choose 500."
The retailer will continue to shoot some professional videos for other parts of the web site, such as how-to videos on packing luggage or picking the best back-to-school backpack, he says. But for many product videos, Cobb says he would like to have a small green screen background set up in eBags' office for merchandisers or even interns to spend some time every day shooting short product descriptions. "The ideal dream would be a video on every product and a video for every situation," he says.

Winters, Brinkman lead Chinese team to finalsBEIJING – National team members Fred Winters of Victoria and Steve Brinkman of Bowmanville, Ont., the first foreigners to play professional volleyball in China, have helped their pro team BAIC to the Chinese league finals.
BAIC defeated Henan in two straight matches 3-0 and 3-1 in sets, to advance. They now face Bayi for the title with match one of the best of three January 29 in Beijing. Games two and three are scheduled for Suzhou on February 2 and, if necessary, February 3.
"We haven't been able to beat Bayi this year so it will be tough," said Winters, Canada's national team captain. "The key is the first game at home."
Winters added that Shanghai didn't make the final for the first time in more than 10 years after falling to Bayi in the semifinals.
For BAIC Motors, the decision to recruit overseas was done for one reason only: to dethrone Shanghai.
"The message was made very clear to us that we are vying for the championship," said Winters, earlier this season. "It's a lot of pressure but the club has slowly brought us along so there is no feeling of panic. They've really helped us adapt to Chinese life."

Water & Cameras
Former Crutchfield staff writer Woody Sherman spent years working as an editor and manager in the video industry at the national level.
More from Woody Sherman
Don't be afraid of the...
These are the five cameras we put to the test at the waterpark, clockwise from upper left: The Pentax K-5 DSLR; the ContourROAM; the Canon PowerShot D20; the Nikon Coolpix AW100; and the Pentax Optio WG-2
Planning a trip to the beach or a mountain lake this summer? How about an afternoon by the pool? Warm weather, water and fun go hand in hand. Don't miss out on those amazing photo and video opportunities just because you're afraid of getting your camera wet. Lots of new offerings today are either waterproof or water-resistant.
We decided to take some of our favorite water-friendly cameras on a trip to Massunutten Water Park in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley for a hands-on trial. We packed up two staff photographers, our video team, our writer and designers, and some friends and family for a brief, no-holds-barred assault on the park's many wet photo opportunities. Within 20 minutes of arrival, all the cameras were taking shots, and within two hours, we had gathered all the images we came for.
As you can see, these cameras didn't let us down, even when wet. Every photo you see here (except for the product shot above) was taken by one of the cameras shown. And we had a ton of fun taking all of them!

With one swing of the bat, Ryne Roper changed the complexion of Tuesday's ballgame with Carterville.
The senior stepped to the plate in the bottom half of the first inning as the lead off hitter for the Bulldogs and the first pitch he saw from Carterville right hander Austin Swalls, Roper sent screaming over the pole down the left field line.
Roper's solo shot tied the game at one, but that only began the offensive onslaught in the bottom half of the frame as the Bulldogs put up four runs en route to a 8-1 final Tuesday at Dorris Heights.
Roper also figured into the win as Harrisburg's starting pitcher, improving to 2-0 on the year. The future University of Illinois product worked four innings, allowing two hits and one run, while striking our four and walking one.
Cody Hall came in for relief and struck out three, while issuing one walk and one hit.
Matthew Phipps worked a perfect seventh as Harrisburg went to 2-0 on the year.
Carterville dropped to 1-3 on the season as Swalls picked up the loss, giving up five earned runs over two innings. The freshman gave up three hits and four walks.
Carterville's Stephen Wood got the Lions on the board in the first inning when he singled into shallow right field and scored on a ripped double to left center by Sam Stearns.
Harrisburg countered in the first with Roper's solo shot to start the inning and followed that up with a two-run home run by Justin Younger, scoring himself and Cooper Thompson. Thompson poked a single into right field in his at-bat, scoring Hall who reached base via walk.
The Bulldogs got a run in the second when Ryan Luce scored on a fielder's choice by Cooper Thompson and got a run in the third when Sykes Thompson came away with an RBI single down the first base line in the third inning.
Harrisburg put up two more runs in the sixth inning as Carson Batts' RBI double to deep left field scored Younger and Chris Wilsey followed suit with a hit, allowing Batts to score on a throwing error.
Younger finished his day 2-for-3 with a home run and two RBIs, while Roper was 2-for-4 with a home run. Cooper Thompson finished 1-for-4 with a pair of RBIs and Sykes Thompson was 1-for-3 with an RBI. Batts and Wilsey were both 1-for-1 with Batts finishing with one RBI.
Harrisburg's game with St. Teresa High School on Friday has been cancelled. The Bulldogs will play host to Rochelle and Pinckneyville on Saturday, starting at 11 a.m. at Dorris Heights.
Massac County 10, Carrier Mills 0
The Carrier Mills-Stonefort baseball team was shutout on the road Tuesday, falling to Massac County 10-0.
Page 2 of 2 - Darren Betz went 2-for-2 at the plate, while Tyler Cantrell finished 1-for-2.
Dalton Summers picked up the loss, going 1 2/3 of an inning, allowing eight runs on seven hits, while walking two.
Loren Whiting came in for relief, allowing one run on one hit, while striking out three and walking one. Betz finished out the last 1/3 of the game, giving up two hits and one run.
Carrier Mills is scheduled to play at Hardin County on Thursday, starting at 4:30 p.m.

Re: my previous comment on Patrick's small flying sit, I just took a look at his SC SP and it seems he just doesn't have a big one.
I only watched Oda and feel depressed, from the comments it seems like a dull competition. I ll look for Song's Lp on YT.
congratulations to all medal winners.
patrick chan, nan son, michael brezina.
congrat to adam for coming in 3 in the free skate.
As to Chan, I notice that he did a 3A in the SP, but not in the FS, whereas Song, who also executed a 4T and a 4T+3T, was brave enough to include a 3A in his FS. A male champion should be brave enough not to have to choose between attempting quad jumping and attempting the triple axel. He should be brave enough to try both in the same free programme. I cannot help but admire courage in an athlete. Song obviously has plenty of that.
Oda's PCS was down to 5-6 range today. Do you guys believe Chan will get an Oda-like PCS score if he bombs like Oda did today? or will the judges will continue to hold him up?

I was certain who would win today, and yes he did. And I'm happy with it. The difference between Chan's skating and others in this competition was like day and night, even a non-skater like me can clearly see it. Chan's performance was like a cut, polished diamond with some chips in it. For me, I can ignore those chips and see sparkles and brilliance here and there. I like "transitions". Many things going on--and I like it that way. Of course, I speak only for myself. I respect others who might have a different taste.
So Dodhiyel, your answer to my question is that Song should have won on Bravery? Is that the most impirtant and determining component? Are there other Program Components in your system? Do you admire Chan when he does 2 quads and a 3A in his LP?

In 1977 the Damned were shunned by the London punk elite, being way too uncool for Malcolm McLaren's latter-day Dickensian orphanage. The lead singer did an excellent Bela Lugosi, while the bass player (later turned guitarist) insisted on wearing a tutu. They were also disadvantaged by their ability to play their instruments. But they did not let this get in the way of an erratic career that continues in sporadic manner to this day. The original band, with Brian James on guitar and Captain Sensible on bass, signed to Stiff and debuted with the coruscating New Rose 45.
Thus Punk Rock was born. However by the second Stiff album things had gone slightly pear-shaped and the band left the label as even the label owners turned against them. Now estranged from the Punk and Power Pop establishments, they temporarily disintegrated. Ex Stiff press officer Rick Rogers resurrected them with an amended line-up that moved Captain to guitar and for about 15 minutes had Lemmy on bass, Dave Vanian on vocals and Rat Scabies still banging the drums, when they went out as the Doomed. The old moniker soon returned, Lemmy went back to his day job at Motorhead and The Damned continued with a new bass player (initially Algy Ward, then ex-Hot Rod Paul Gray).
After the official bootleg version of Love Song, they signed up with Chiswick and became even more uncool by having hit records and appearing on Top of the Pops. Two studio albums and one live one later they moved off to MCA and scored their biggest chart success with a cover of Barry Ryan's Eloise. There is still a Damned out there somewhere with Dave, Captain and Paul in conjunction with 'A' drummer. And they are still one of the most thrilling live bands you could hope to see.

Rename wiki pages
This plugin allows you to rename wiki pages. It is an evolution of the WikiRenameScript, and currently has the same limitations.
It will move a page and its history, and will rewrite explicit links ([wiki:PageName Label]) leading to it from other wiki pages. It will also move any attachments on the page.
Currently this plugin doesn't interact well with the TagsPlugin. You should be careful to remove any tags on a page before renaming it, and then re-adding them to the new page.
You can access the page rename form through the Admin system. For convenience, a link is also added to the context navigation bar in the wiki.
A script named trac-wikirename will automatically be installed.
To use it:
trac-wikirename OldName NewName /path/to/trac/env
A WIKI_RENAME permission is available, though anyone with WIKI_ADMIN will also be allowed to rename pages.
To enable the plugin:
[components] wikirename.* = enabled
Bugs/Feature Requests
Existing bugs and feature requests for WikiRenamePlugin are here.
If you have any issues, create a new ticket.
Same warning as in Notes above is valid for the FlexibleWikiPlugin. Wiki page names are not updated and flexible navigation maybe messed up totally by renaming pages referenced as parent page for other pages. While waiting for the clean solution (in terms of coding style), available dirty patches for TagsPlugin and FlexibleWikiPlugin (same ticket, see comment 11) may still be preferred over having no solution at all.

About biographical information
Sum any set of rows by clicking anywhere (not red or blue) on the
first and last rows of your selection. We will then compute the
totals for the player between and including those two seasons.
Default Setting for this feature: Turn On / Turn Off
Summation of season totals only works for the initial case when the table is in year order. On a sorted table the results may get a bit goofy.
HIGHLIGHTING: Adding a range or series of player's career seasons or career game numbers (like '#1972:batting_standard', '#1970-1980-sum:batting_standard', or '#1998,1999,2001,2002,sum:pitching_standard') onto the end of a player page url causes the seasons to the highlighted and summed. After changing address bar, reload the page to see highlighting. This will work even in links e-mailed to others. Note that for tables with multiple pages the first table is the default. If you want to create a sum for a table other than the first one, select the rows and after the summation window appears click on "permanent link" link.

|In response to Re: Basement toilet
: I would like to install another toilet in our lower level. We already have one in place with a sump pump basin, grinder pump liquifer and necessary ventalation. The location is very close to the basin, my question is weather I can place another toilet and have it drain into the same basin. Can I go above the ground level and have it flow in or should I cut the floor and try to tape into the side of the unit.
You can install another toilet to your existing basin. Here is a site that may help also. Dale's Plumbing Service Inc LMP

A photograph by museum entomologist Dr Ken Walker has just won a coveted place in the annual international Leica calendar. In 2012, the company's calendar will feature microscope photographs, and Leica put out a call for entries. Ken's photograph of the head of a tiny, undescribed lichen moth in the genus Chamaita (family Arctiidae) was one of 12 selected.
The winning photograph of the head of a male lichen moth.Image: Ken WalkerSource: Museum Victoria
The photograph, as well as being incredibly beautiful, is an important diagnostic tool. This species is a pest in palm plantations in New West Britain, Papua New Guinea. To assist those who need to identify it, the species has its own page , featuring the winning photograph and others, on PaDIL (Pests and Diseases Image Library).
Says Ken, "It's a great recognition for the photographic skills we have developed here over the past six years to have an image to be used in the high-quality calendar." The competition was open to anyone using Leica microscope and camera equipment; the prize is a Leica EZ4 dissecting microscope. This prize will go right back into PaDIL's suite of specialist technical equipment to create more photographs like this one.

"Rush Limbaugh's Apology Remarks"
Is Not Available At This Time.
Experts Say Rush Limbaugh Apology Won't Decrease Debate
Please enter your comments below.
There's no debate.
Right wingers hate women. Period. They hate your mother, sister, daughter, wife. If you're a woman, they hate you. Just like they hate minorities and the working class. Good for the advertisers who are lancing the cyst. That was not an apologyby the way, so flush Rush.
I'm in the market for a high-end vacuum cleaner; I know where I won't be buying it. Anyone who enables the hate radio cesspool is liable for the consequences of their choices.
Ms. Fluke
Ms. Fluke said it cost female college students around $3,000 per year for contraceptives and that it is very difficult to do because of tuition, books and living expenses. Rush may have said it the wrong way, but why should we pay so that they (female college students can be sexually active????
David Friend, Carbonite CEO:
"No one with daughters the age of Sandra Fluke, and I have two, could possibly abide the insult and abuse heaped upon this courageous and well-intentioned young lady. Mr. Limbaugh, with his highly personal attacks on Miss Fluke, overstepped any reasonable bounds of decency. Even though Mr. Limbaugh has now issued an apology, we have nonetheless decided to withdraw our advertising from his show. We hope that our action, along with the other advertisers who have already withdrawn their ads, will ultimately contribute to a more civilized public discourse."
Rush for President
After repeatedly going over Rush's statements regarding the Georgetown student, I do not see where he called her anything. I belive he was just trying to express a general statement. I am a male and when I went to college,"Condoms" werenot covered under my medical package,so why would I want to pay for anybody else for contraception.
uneven ground
It is ok for the other side to name call and insult conservitives, like Sars Paalin, Mrs. Bush and a host of others but put the shoe on the other foot and listen to the BS fly.What is good for the goose is also good for the gander. Rush should not Apologies, He wasd right on.
I can't believe this drama is still going on. I am truly no Rush fan, but I don't see what all the fuss is about. I had several college daughters and they often would refer to the stupid S's they had to go to school with. I always say if it looks like a pig and it acts like a pig, it probably is a pig. And the sponsers that dropped Rush are not anything I would waste my money on. I have had Pro flowers and they really aren't that special. I have had alot nicer flowers from other companies. So my hope is we all will stop swimming around in this particular toliet with Sandy and Rush. Maybe, just maybe, we should be focused on the gas situation, or maybe the rather sticky spot we are in with the middle east?
no apology
I am a working man that has no insurance and did not go to a fancy college. can I go in front of congress and whine.Dont we have bigger issues in this country.
Looking at the comments here...
...from the erudite geniuses who are defending this gutter-dwelling lowlife, maybe he should seek out some spelling and grammar tutorials to fill in the sudden void in his sponsorships.
Grow Up Everyone
It is an opinion. Get over it.
Typical Liberal Double Standard
So all you hypocritical liberals bashing the Right and Rush...were you spewing your vitriol when the morons in the press were calling Sarah Palin stupid and other names that can't be printed here? No I suspect you were laughing and shaking your mind-numbed heads in agreement. You lemmings will continue to believe what Obummer's propaganda machine wants you to think while your liberties way of life disappear (unless of course you are one of Obummer's union hacks)! So print your lists and boycott Rush's sponsors...I will continue to boycott Government Moters, Chrysler and all the other companies on Obama's payroll.
An open letter to women who work for WBEN
How do you look at yourself in the mirror knowing these people hate you? Please find employment with a legitimate media outlet for your own good.
Keep this idiot in the news.
The longer this goes on, the worse it is for the GOP, therefore the better it is for America.
Will WBEN 930 Buffalo have the same integrity as KPUA ??
Now Limbaugh appears to have lost his first radio station over those smears, with the Hilo, Hawaii-based KPUA AM 670: "We have always encouraged spirited discussion about national and local issues on KPUA and from time to time those discussions may be deemed by some to be objectionable. We are strong believers in the first amendment and have recognized Mr. Limbaugh's right to express opinions that often times differ from our own, but it has never been our goal to allow our station to be used for personal attacks and intolerance. The most recent incident has crossed a line of decency and a standard that we expect of programming on KPUA whether it is locally produced or a syndicated program like the Rush Limbaugh show. "While much of the national debate regarding this issue is now being framed in political terms, the decision for us is one of decency and responsibility. Regardless of one's political views on the issue being discussed, we feel the delivery was degrading and the continued comments over several days to be egregious. As a result, we are discontinuing the Rush Limbaugh program on KPUA effective immediately."
WBEN show some integrity
If WBEN has a shred of integrity they shold drop Limbaugh's show ASAP!

Canadian volleyball player Claire Hanna breathes easier after winter scare
WINNIPEG – Back in February, Canadian team volleyball player Claire Hanna of Vancouver wasn't sure she would be on court, let alone competing for a spot on the 2011 national team this week at the Frank Kennedy Centre.
The two-year national team player underwent a scary situation this past winter when she suffered a collapsed lung that was discovered after suffering chest pains at a promotional tournament in Thunder Bay. But for the past two days she's been hard at work at the national women's team selection camp which started Monday and runs until Thursday.
''Initially I just tried to walk it off and just stuck to some cardio work,'' said Hanna, when she started feeling uncomfortable. ''When I got back to Winnipeg, it was still there. I saw a doctor and that's when I was diagnosed with a collapsed lung.''
The 25-year-old former UBC star player was rushed to hospital where she underwent surgery. Doctors were forced to cut off part of her lung to help it function properly. She stayed in hospital for a week, was back on court about three weeks later and resumed full time training six weeks later.
''The doctors told me that I would make a full recovery but I was worried this season would be compromised,'' she said. ''I'm pretty happy with how I've come back. It was only a few months ago I was full of tubes and being stuck with needles.''
One of the big steps for Hanna was on Monday during the physical testing. She underwent intense cardio exercises and memories of her February mishap returned. ''I really had to push my lungs to the limit,'' she said. ''I got some similar feelings to when the lung was collapsed but the doctor told me that could happen at times and I just kept that in mind. The tests went super well.''
Hanna plays the Libero position, which she describes as similar to a goalie in hockey. She was named the 2010 Libero of the year in Canadian university volleyball and the top Libero in the Canada West conference in 2009 and 2010.
''I have to make sure the ball never hits the ground,'' Hanna said. ''It's a position that requires a lot of focus. You have to dig and pass and you're always at the heart of the game. I've really found my groove at that position.''
Hanna grew up in Calgary before heading back west again to attend UBC where she recently completed her Masters in business. She started playing volleyball in high school and was also a nationally ranked badminton player at the age group level.
In addition to the selection of the Senior Women's Team, the developmental 'B Team' will be chosen at this selection camp. The B Team will train in Winnipeg throughout July and compete on behalf of Canada in the 2011 World Universiade Games in Shenzhen China from Aug 12-23.
The camp's sessions are in the Frank Kennedy Centre's Brown and Gold Gym and continues Wednesday, May 18: 9am – 6pm Thursday, May 19: 9 – 11:30am and 3 – 6pm.

Teacher Carol Ann Stream played the role as chief of the village and explained to the crowd that the students have been studying Native American culture and how Thanksgiving came to be.
The students made their costumes and drums which they wore while they performed songs for the audience. The annual Thanksgiving show is performed in Stream's front yard which is fully equipped with a tepee and pictographs on the front of the home.
At the conclusion of the program, the students were encouraged to have their parents remove their students' pictograph as a memento.

There's a new cub on the block. Just recently returning from Boise, Idaho back to the place of their birth in Utah, fourteen yearling bears were released in the southern Bookcliffs in Grand County near Uintah County and in close proximity to the Colorado border. These 14 cubs were born in 2004 during the winter. During the spring and summer of 2004 due to drought conditions causing a shortage of forage for bears, these cubs were orphaned by their mothers. Four of the bears came from Uintah County, one from Emery County, one from Grand County and eight from Carbon County. The bears have been in Boise, Idaho at the black bear rehab from the time of their capture to June 8 when they were transported back to Utah by wildlife coordinator, Bill Bates from the Price Office of the Division of Wildlife Resources.
At the rehab center the bears were raised with the end thought in mind that these bears would be able to return and function in the wild. They are given food, usually puppy chow and fruit, they are provided with top of the line veterinary care. The rehab doesn't rehabilitate any bears to be used in zoos or sanctuaries, they are all reintroduced into the wild. Part of the mission of the rehab center is to educate people about bears and their characteristics and needs. Bears go through similar stages of development as human children, but do so in months rather than years. At the rehab center, the caregivers experience those changes right along with the bears and it is a time of learning, joy, wonder and sometimes frustration for all involved.
The morning of June 8, the 14 bears were prepared for their trip back to Utah with a tranquilizer. They were then loaded into bear traps which resembled long tubes with a couple of air holes and a trap door. The bears were also fitted with radio collars by Dr. Hal Black and his crew from Brigham Young University where he is a biologist. Dr. Black is a bear expert and carefully guided the bears back to Price where they spent the night. Early on June 9, personnel from the DWR, Dr. Black's family and news media traveled along behind the horse trailer carrying the bears. The bears were hosed down a time or two on their way back from Boise, but they hadn't eaten since early the day before.
Upon arriving at the site for the first release a light rain was falling upon the very green trees and bushes surrounding the release site. Many comments were made on the excellence of the site selection and with adequate food and water available the bears should thrive in their new home.
Brent Stettler, DWR, said, "With the adequate moisture we have had this year, the division doesn't expect the problem with orphan bears that we had last year. There should be plenty of food for both mothers and cubs this year."
The bears being released ranged from below 100 pounds with the heaviest bear weighing approximately 205 pounds. The bears were all weighed in their traps before their release and the 120 pounds of the trap was subtracted from the weight. It took four men to lift the bear in its trap.
After the work was completed and a check was made to see if the radio transmitters were working the bears were ready for the release. Sometimes it took one or two people to lift the trap door to give the bear its first taste of freedom in more than a year. Some of the bears bolted for freedom. Some didn't want to leave the safety of their trap and needed a bit of encouragement to come out. A few of the bears turned and looked back at the onlookers, but the majority of the bears, just headed out and climbed a tree to view their new surroundings.
The bears were released in two different spots. The remoteness of the spot was chosen because it isn't an area used for cattle grazing which should minimize bear contact with humans. There is little activity in the area, barring the natural gas pipeline that runs through East Canyon and the maintenance involved with it. The bears aren't expected to get into trouble in this area. Bears have an excellent homing instinct and could set out for Boise, but it's hoped they will find their new digs just what the doctor ordered.
Bears in the wild have a 50 percent mortality rate. Bears who have been raised in captivity and then released into the wild are projected to do just as well as those born and raised in the wild. The Bookcliff project bear release is a great experiment and a lot of other states are watching to see how things turn out with the Utah bears.
With expanding human populations it is easier for bears to become nuisance bears. Bears eat weeds, grass, twigs, insects and all types of vegetation. When leaving the den in the spring they will sometimes feast on dead elk or deer carcusses from winter killed animals. They will sometimes eat elk calves or deer fawns, but will not normally try to hunt big animals.
Stettler said, "The berry crop this year is expected to be very good which will be good for these bears. The bears love anything sweet. That is one of the reasons bears become nuisance bears and keep returning to campsites. We have a bear at Bristlecone boy scout camp that has been removed more than once and he keeps returning. It's important to learn how to camp in bear country. Keep your food up and off the ground. Do not store food in your tent with you, or you might have a visitor.
"Bears are walkers and they like to travel, hopefully with the cooler weather, these bears won't be unduly stressed and try to leave the area of their release," said Stettler.
All involved were happy to see the bears returned to their natural environment where with a little luck, they'll enjoy many long and happy years making bear tracks.

In Balcony of the troopers' ward, 14th Australian General Hospital, Abbassia Lambert portrayed the wartime courtship of a soldier and a nurse. The two protagonists stand apart in their separate worlds, and yet are visually drawn together. The trooper wears the standard blue trousers, white shirt and red tie issued to convalescents and coyly holds his slouch hat in his hand while the nurse looks shyly downwards. They stand on a balcony in the dappled light of the late afternoon. Lambert placed these two figures within a decorative structure of geometrical forms – the horizontals of the ceiling beams, the verticals of the veranda columns and window frames, and the two bold red rectangles of the screens around the bed. He described the painting as a 'study of afternoon sunlight effect' (AWM file 449/009/078).
In his official history, Gullett said that 'no womanhood has ever presented a richer association of feminine tenderness and sheer capacity' than the Australian nurses during the First World War (Gullett 1936, p.645).
Balcony of the troopers' ward was perhaps Lambert's expression of his gratitude to the female nurturer, and also of the power of love and human kindness in the healing process.
This painting is unusual among Lambert's war work in that it is an illustrative work showing an aspect of the role of women in war. While working in Palestine and Gallipoli Lambert mostly painted landscape sketches; and when he turned to portraying contemporary life during wartime, the works he produced were essentially masculine images of 'sweating, sun-bronzed men and beautiful horses' (ML MSS 97/4, item 6).

Not As Cute As I Thought
"I got these in the mail today, and tried them on. The slit on the sides is a little deeper than I would have liked. It goes below my ankle bone, so it's pointless to wear these with out socks, since my ankle bone would be exposed.That and their more floppy than pictured. Which, makes sense since your foot is in them, I was just surprised HOW floppy it was.On a good note, they fit very well, and are very comfortable. The lining is really soft, and feels nice. The pattern is also very cuteJust disappointing in other ways, so they'll be returned."
