Although it is a "busy" outfit, I really do love it. I think everything works very nicely. It is such a summery outfit, which I love. The pattern of the dress is very tropical.

I don't think it's busy at all. You don't have layers upon layers, and you're not drowning in metal accessories, long earrings and tons of rings.
I think it's simple and tasteful.
How you describe your "life's hectic sprawl" and how it relates to your mind... it's a lot like me.
I wonder how else you and I are alike?
Less than four months till our relocation to your old home Island. I'm so excited!

I love the back of that dress. And even if you didn't end up liking your outfit (although I still think you look stunning) I think that's the great thing about blogging. you get to really take a look at yourself and introspective think about things like you talked about.

What? I thought this outfit was awesome. Especially because of the two-tone accessories and busy print.
The rest of your text I could have written myself. I never buy ornaments, the most I want is a vase of flowers. But I'm currently sitting in the midst of a veritable maelstrom of papers and clothes and odds and ends. I guess that's what tidying up is for... ; ) - June 30, 2011 at 9:09 AM

I think the busy makes it pretty! It has a lot of life in it, which I think that is important for an outfit to have. You look darling in it!

i love the floral pattern on the dress
love the hat too

I actually thought this was a calm and relaxed outfit. Not so busy at all. The hat, the shoes and the bag did match each other quite good and sure, maybe the print was a little strong, but it just add character to the entire outfit I think.

- Amber Rose, Laughing With Broken Eyes said...
I quite like this outfit!
My room, like yours, is very simple, a light color, many candles, yet full of drawers of records, of vintage knick-knacks, of polaroids.
The simplicity is there in the cut of the dress, and the print just adds extra little something. - June 30, 2011 at 10:24 AM

the cut out on the back is nice

I swear I just saw a glossy magazine just tweet about how big hawaiian prints are coming back too.
I feel like you about the jewelry most times, it some times feels like too much! - June 30, 2011 at 12:25 PM

How perfect is that dress next to those pink blooms?

I understand your way of thinking, but I love this outfit. The two-toned accessories doesn't spoil it a bit. It's all about finding a perfect balance between chaos and order.

What do you mean, busy? You mean how many details are in each piece? But that's what makes a complex, beautiful outfit.

- Sidewalk Chic said...
Even though this is a busy outfit for you, I like that the accessories go well together. The silhouette is so pretty on you, and I like the print -- seems like a nice nod to your old Hawaiian life :)

Even if you're not a huge fan of the outfit - I think you still look radiant and stunning! :)

Well I love this outfit. I can see what you are saying about the two tones accessories and maybe the bag was what was bothering you most, but I think it's still a great look.
And I've heard the the more cluttered our spaces our, the more creative and intelligent we are. So consider it a blessing in disguise:) - June 30, 2011 at 5:49 PM
- Lauren Sherritt said...
I completely understand what you mean by the outfit, the hat and the bag for me jar in a way that your outfits normally don't.
May I say that I really enjoy posts of yours like this, that are a bit more questioning and uncertain. - June 30, 2011 at 5:57 PM

This is great! You're adorable.

I think this dress looks wonderful on you! The back is super cool and so is the pretty print on it. It's not busy at all! I love the hat you paired with it and those amazing heels too
- June 30, 2011 at 8:55 PM
- Triple Thread said...
Although it might be busy compared to some of your other outfits, I think that it works. The accessories are all very cohesive and you look wonderful nonetheless. I hate the feeling of being uncomfortable with something I've set out to wear, though.
- June 30, 2011 at 10:28 PM
- a paper hero said...
certainly wouldn't mind that dress for myself. :)But I do have difficulty with wearing the cutout-back dresses casually, don't you?
- June 30, 2011 at 11:22 PM
- Rebecca, The Clothes Horse said...
@paper hero, no, why would it be an issue? I mean, the fabric of the dress is casual; it's lightweight & not fancy, so I can't imagine wearing it an any fashion other than casual. Also I don't think the middle of my back is especially provocative & it's 90+ degrees, so even with a cut-out I'm more covered up than 75% of people I see. Ultimately, I'm simply comfortable in these clothes.
Why wouldn't you wear them casually? - July 1, 2011 at 10:17 AM
- AlexDylanGrohl said...
i LOOOOVE your clogs!!!!
- July 1, 2011 at 10:24 PM
maybe i am remembering incorrectly, but didn't you wear this dress before, and comment that you had bought it at a tourist shop in hawaii? or is that just a similar-looking dress?
- July 2, 2011 at 6:15 AM
- Rebecca, The Clothes Horse said...
@Anonoymous, nope. I wrote about how the hibiscus print reminded me of Hawaii, you can see the post here: http://theclothes.blogspot.com/2011/05/hibiscus-hideaway.html
I don't think I have any clothes from a tourist shop in Hawaii. :( - July 2, 2011 at 8:33 AM
i see. i must have it confused with a different blogger or something. sorry!
- July 3, 2011 at 6:26 AM
- Rebecca, The Clothes Horse said...
@Anonymous, no worries. I love Hawaii, but when I lived there I didn't do much shopping at tourist shops. Ala Moana Center was my favorite haunt. :)

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that the management of public companies assess the effectiveness of the internal control of issuers for financial reporting. Section 404(b) requires a publicly-held company's auditor to attest to, and report on, management's assessment of its internal controls. The AICPA has consistently urged implementation of Section 404(b) for all publicly held companies. Section 404(b) has led to improved financial reporting and greater transparency. The AICPA believes that all investors in public companies should have equal benefit of the same protections. Some small companies have argued that the regulatory cost and burden of having the assessment outweighs the benefit to investors. During consideration of the bills that became the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, there were several amendments offered that would have exempted a large number of public companies from section 404(b). Ultimately, there was an exemption enacted for non-accelerated filers (companies with less than $75 million in public float). These smaller issuers were never required by the SEC to comply with section 404(b) since enactment of Sarbanes-Oxley Act. There were also 2 studies required by Dodd-Frank. The first required the SEC to conduct a study on the burden caused by section 404(b) compliance for companies with a market capitalization between $75 million and $250 million. The SEC study recommended maintaining existing investor protections of Section 404(b) for companies with market capitalization above $75 million and encouraged activities that have potential to further improve both the effectiveness and efficiency of Section 404(b) implementation. Dodd-Frank also required the GAO to conduct a study to evaluate whether exempt issuers have fewer or more restatements, and how their cost of capital compares with issuers subject to section 404(b). The study is due by July 2013. Legislative Proposals
112th Congress Since January 2011 when the 112th Congress convened, there have been continuing attempts to increase the exemption level for companies subject to section 404(b). A number of bills have been introduced that would expand the Dodd-Frank exemption. The exemption levels in these bills range up to all companies with a market capitalization of up to $1 billion. In April 2012, The Jumpstart our Business Startups Act (JOBS Act) was signed into law. It would generally exempt a new public company from compliance with section 404(b) for the first 5 years it is a public company as long as it does not exceed certain market capitalization or revenue thresholds (called an Emerging Growth Company, or EGC). This Act extends an existing two-year regulatory delay in the implementation of section 404(b) for companies who have had an initial public offering. Importantly, it does not contain an exemption. The Act also contains two provisions urged by the AICPA. The first allows an EGC to opt-out from being treated as an EGC. The second makes it clear that existing public companies cannot take advantage of the EGC exemptions even if they otherwise meet the criteria (not exceeding the market capitalization or revenue thresholds and less than 5 years since the IPO). Additional information on these issues is contained in the AICPA's March 19, 2012, letter to the Senate. The bill was passed by both the House and Senate on large bipartisan votes and was signed by the President on April 5, 2012. It was originally introduced by Congressman Fincher (R-TN), and Congressman John Carney (D-DE) with the title, "Reopening American Capital Markets to Emerging Growth Companies Act of 2011," H.R. 3606. Other bills with various expanded exemptions have also been introduced in the House and Senate during this Congress. Congressman Ed Royce, a California Republican, offered an amendment during House Financial Services Committee consideration of the JOBS Act that would have exempted all public companies with a public float of less than $1 billion from the 404(b) requirements. He withdrew the amendment when promised that his proposal would be considered separately by the Committee later this year. The AICPA continues to fight all such efforts to reduce existing investor protections. Resources Copy of Legislation A copy of the JOBS Act, and all major Congressional actions leading to passage, is available on the Library of Congress's THOMAS website by searching by its bill number, H.R. 3606. The Dodd-Frank Act is available by using the advanced search function and searching for H.R. 4173 by bill number under the 111th Congress.

Chinese behind rise in centre's success (From Bicester Advertiser)

Chinese behind rise in centre's success
2:00pm Friday 31st August 2012 in News By Chris Koenig, covering business. Call me on 01865 425433
THE growth of designer shopping outlet Bicester Village is being fuelled by a surge in visitors from China.
With plans for a major expansion of the site on track and visitor numbers expected to rise from 5.5 million in 2011 to 5.8 million this year, bosses believe nearly half of those coming from abroad to the Village hail from China.
And it has been estimated the Chinese made a total of 825,000 transactions at the outlet site last year.
Now managers at Bicester-based parent company Value Retail are looking to cash in by opening an outlet near Shanghai in 2014.
Bicester Village spokesman Miranda Markham said visitors to Bicester Village from China are up 70 per cent on last year.
She said: "The Chinese in particular are seeking a quintessential and authentic British experience and shopping at Bicester Village enables them to purchase from luxury brands as well as discovering the unique and diverse attractions of the region."
The Chinese retail site, to be known as Suzhou Village, will be modelled on Bicester Village and will serve a catchment area of 40 million people.
In May, it was announced that Tesco and Bicester Village were joining forces in a project that could bring more than 3,500 jobs to Bicester.
Plans involve the supermarket opening up a new expanded store opposite its current position off the A41, while Bicester Village will open up up 30 new shops in its place.
Growing numbers of Chinese visitors are also having an impact on Oxford language schools, with one reporting an increase in Chinese students of more than 30 per cent, and on tourism in general.
Susi Golding, director of Visit Oxfordshire which runs the Oxford Tourist Information Centre in Broad Street, said: "We have noticed a huge increase in Chinese visitors this year and last."
She added: "We are finding more Chinese people are wanting to take our walking tours of Oxford for instance, and we are considering taking on a Chinese speaking guide.
"Many Chinese people are also keen to find out about further study here."
Victoria Moyle of English language school CES Embassy, said: "We have increasing numbers of Chinese students.
"This year we had 120 on two courses, up from about 90 last year."

PS Good job they do come in bus loads, that many people bringing cars would cause further chaos!!!

So that's what they think Britain is when they come to BV They will be better off staying at home. Really look forward to the Chinses BV being built, may be they could move the whole thing lock, stock and barrel and let's have some where the British can go to.
4:45pm Sat 1 Sep 12
What they should report is that Bicester people look set to experience further suffering thanks to our inept planners and poor traffic management.
Presumably this is simply the BA trying to help get BV planning permission for the move of Tesco, despite this not being included in Cherwell's draft local plan?

This works well. I use it with my kids or if I want to practice my serves. It's easy to pick up balls. I may have been able to save a few dollars buying my balls separately so you might want to check that first.

Series: Searching for Motivated Belief
Over the next few months, with permission from Yale University Press, BioLogos will offer edited versions of chapters from John Polkinghorne's best books, Belief in God in an Age of Science and Theology in the Context of Science, in order to help readers delve more deeply into some of his most important ideas.
Multiple Lines of Evidence for an Old Universe
Astronomers have many different methods for measuring the age of various objects in the universe, and they all support ages of billions of years, not thousands. Even if the assumptions of one or two methods were faulty, it is highly unlikely that all of the methods would be affected.
Hydrology of the Bow River
There's a word beneath the water, and the Bow River belongs to God. Have you been listening?
Series: Made in the Image of God: The Theological Implications of Human Genomics
This series by Denis Alexander reflects on advancements in genomics as well as their theological implications. He focuses on the relatedness of hominin genomes, arguing that this does not interfere with the image of God in humans. The image of God depends more on the capacity for relationship and covenant, not on a list of particular physical qualities. He then discusses why the recent studies of genomics provide "no grounds for genetic determinism."
Series: Recent Discoveries in Astronomy
In this excerpt from the book Delight in Creation: Scientists Share Their Work with the Church, astronomer Deborah Haarsma shares her excitement about recent findings about our universe from a Christian perspective.
What Does It Mean to Be Human? A Response to Bruce Little, Part 2
Trinitarian theology and the image of God are important, non-essentialist resources to help us think about the distinct place of humanity in creation.
What is the Higgs Boson?
At a press conference on July 4, 2012, and with 99.99994% confidence (5 sigma), CERN announced the discovery of a particle consistent with that of a Higgs boson (a.k.a. "the God particle"). This is very exciting for elementary particle physicists. But what is the Higgs particle, and what is its meaning?
Naming 'the God Particle'
The discovery of the Higgs boson would certainly be a breakthrough for particle physics and cosmology, but would such a finding also radically redefine theology's understanding of God or challenge the existence of such a deity? Is there actually any theological or religious significance in Higgs physics at all?
The Questions Update: The Image of God
Over the last two weeks, the Forum has explored the imago Dei from various perspectives. Today's post features a preview of the updated Question, "How could humans have evolved and still be created in the ' Image of God'? written by Senior Web Consultant and Writer Deborah Haarsma.
The Broken Made Whole
There is a sense in which we look at Temma and we want to affirm that she is made in the image of God by denying that the image of God has anything to do with her physical, material body.
More Than Skin Deep: The Image of God in People with Disabilities
My students twinge and recoil a bit at the thought that persons with disabilities can be made in God's image. "They just don't look like it," they say, zeroing in on what is physically seen.
Series: Chosen by God: Biblical Election and the Imago Dei
At the center of the theological and cultural controversy surrounding biological evolution stands the question: "How do human beings—creatures uniquely created in the image and likeness of God—fit into the scientific picture of life's origins and development?" In this three-part series, Dr. Joshua Moritz endeavors to address this question by exploring what Scripture means—and does not mean—by the designation "image and likeness of God".
Southern Baptist Voices: Evolutionary Creationism and the Imago Dei
I wish to question whether or not it is possible for the image of God to be produced through the evolutionary process apart from the special intervention of God.
The Transit of Venus
Today we have a chance to witness a special moment in history as Venus transits across the disk of the Sun for people across the world to see. Not only is this process of discovery exciting for natural science, but it has profound theological ramifications as well.
Fine-tuning and the "Fruitful Universe"
I ask the question, "Why is the universe so special?" Now scientists don't like things to be special; we like things to be general, and our natural anticipation would have been that the universe is just a common specimen of what a universe might be like.
Saturday Sermon: Over and Above Naturalism, Part 2
Barkley suggests that material creation is not the end of our understanding (as Naturalists think), but a beginning that unveils the majestic and power of a Creator who loves us.
Saturday Sermon: Over and Above Naturalism
Pastor Joseph Barkley of Ecclesia Church extols the greatness of the God who has brought forth incredible works and engaged humankind in relationship. In the first part of the sermon "Over and Above Naturalism," Barkley admires the factual knowledge unlocked by science, and yet reminds the Church that those material descriptions fail to answer the question of ultimate significance.
Series: The Wonder of the Universe
BioLogos is pleased to share excerpts from Karl Giberson's book The Wonder of the Universe: Hints of God in a Fine-Tuned World. It presents a two-part argument: in the first section Giberson outlines the history of our understanding of the universe, emphasizing the reliability of our knowledge of its properties and its history. In particular he outlines the remarkable evidence of design. In part two of the book, however, he discusses the complexities of drawing inferences from the design of the universe, cautioning against arguments that fine-tuning of the universe proves the existence of God.
Scientists Tell Their Stories: Owen Gingerich
When it came time to go to graduate school, one of Owen Gingerich's science professors told him "If you feel a calling to go to astronomy, you should give it a try, because we shouldn't let atheists take over any particular field."
Series: Universe and Multiverse
Baylor University Physicist Gerald Cleaver describes the changing state of our understanding of the cosmos and suggests ways that Christians can make theological sense of a theoretical Multiverse.

Oh dear, this site is in desperate need of of severe moderation or it will drown in this shitstorm.
Free speech is soooo great, isnt it David?
Excellent sound tonight I think. One of the best I have ever witnessed in a Moz gig.
This Charming Man out/First of the gang encore/I want the one once again first song. Otherwise setlist close to previous gigs.
Moz and band in good form. The first half of the show (after Speedway) had many new and slower songs. The crowd didn't get too excited I think. Second half was certainly much more enthusiastic with all the hits played on this tour.
"Scandinavia" was played once again.
Moz seemed to enjoy Berlin once again. Just made a statement that there are too many McDonalds in the city (band was once again wearing the Mc-shirts).
Some more banters (from my memory):
I have been to many places (mentions German cities' names) and I've realised "People are the same everywhere" (obviously followed by the song).
Did sing "why do you come here" from Suedehead before the encore.
"My German is quiet fluent... but not tonight"
When Boz started "Irish blood English heart" a bit early he said something like "Boz, your first".
I missed a bit of the energy of previous tours. Moz is certainly not "dancing" and moving around that much even compared to the Tour of Refusal. Something I realised from footage of this tour already.
In the end of the day; good gig, even though not the best one.
Perfect place for Moz to play. He's fast become an unintentional parody of Hitler.
Freedom of speech?
Hehehehehehe this site is shit, so shit! Why waste time posting on here if you hate the site and David so much....also where the fucks all the personal reviews and decent posts about morrissey and the shows got to! Fucking sort it out!!! You daft bastards
Great. Thanks for the clip and the review!!! Glad the weather held out for you. I missed it unfortunately due to work commitments. Grrrrr. Was it possible to gauge how many people were there. What were the standout songs?
One look at this thread should be enough to convince David that the site needs to change. Only unbelievable pigheadedness could prevent him from doing so.
Hi Tom just posted it from youtube sorry i wasnt there mate (UK here) shall post more if i find!
The weather was excellent. A nice summer evening not too hot.
Well recieved were the obvious one I think: Everyday is like Sunday, There is a light, Irish blood. First of the gang...
I was quiet moved to hear: I know it's over, although I didn't cry...
It wasn't sold out I think. Estimate 7,000 to 8,000 people.
morrissey, more dancing please!
THis is fucking stupid. One post out of 38 that bears any relevance to the Berlin show review. At 23:00hrs BST on the day of the gig. Sort it fucking out
Sleepy set in my opinion. However venue was magnificent. Some sort of castle with some major significance I am sure. Highlight for me was Fatty near the beginning. We got I Know It's Over, Meat is Murder. Meh all a bit Zzz I reckon. Crowd was polite yet somewhat sedate. Accordingly, so was Moz. Seemed to be a short set and only one brief encore. Some pretty valiant attempts at invasions given stage was so high.
I really like the new song, something about Scandinavia. Enjoy German women even moreso. So voluptuous and attractive. very bosomy. Sorry for lack of info, fans. Got quite drunk. Ended up in the next town over listening to New Order with two blokes who spoke no english but ate all my spinach pizza and let me pay for their beer.

I rarely write reviews, and usually it's for when a particular company or person has stood out as providing exemplary service. But today, I make an exception for Orange Mobile. When I permanently left the UK, I wanted to cancel my contract. I expected to pay to do this. I wasn't expecting Orange to ask me to pay twice the amount then it would cost for me to keep it running. I spent two weeks chasing people who were supposed to call me back, during an already stressful time of packing up.... (read more)

I have been a customer of orange for many years now. I ask very little and require little. The only interaction I have with the company is come the time of upgrade. I'm also a reasoned man so will not be attacking anyone in the company personally which would be unhelpful for whoever reads this and unprofessional. Short version.

after 20 years with orange they cant or wont price match a deal i can find easily on uswitch,they say the company that offer these good contracts dont make as much profit as orange make selling direct to the public,so they refuse to drop their price for the sake of profit....I urge anybody nearing the end of their own contract to look at other sites on the web like uswitch who can offer exactly the same as orange but cheaper even though the tarrifs are still with orange.

I am writing this review to vent my utter anger and frustration at the customer service which Orange provides, not to mention its terrible tariff prices and poor 3G network. After almost 2 years with this horrendous provider I decided to end my contract early by paying it out and moving to 3. I dialled the Orange customer service to which a clueless American man answered. I told him I wanted to buy out my contract and instead he tried to sell me a new phone with Orange! Which was of course... (read more)

ORANGE WILL CHARGE YOU FOR USAGE EVEN WHEN YOUR PHONE & SIM GETS STOLEN AND THEY 'BLOCK' IT!! After my phone got pickpocketed, I received the worst customer service from Orange. I actually called them from Greater Manchester Police HQ (I still have a crime number and it's on their records) and the woman over the phone *actually* said I could have been lying about having my phone stolen, and the fact I had no insurance meant there were no goodwill gestures whatsoever. They promised that they... (read more)

One of the prime things I regret this year is shifting my mobile provider to Orange as a result of a so called promo on a EE broadband offer. Its been 2 months since I have been on Orange and just checked my online account today to find that I have been billed x4 times the price of the bill adding charges to accessing voicemail and sms delivery charges. Following this , I rang customer services for about 1 hour after which I had to lodge a complaint as no resolution following which they... (read more)

Orange has to be the worse mobile company in the UK. The customer service is just an automated service that tries its best to stop you speaking to a human and most of the time you give up and carry on putting up with the poor reception issues.

Orange coverage is great! I have routinely driven up and down the country and not had problems with reception. However, the big draw back to using Orange is their prices. I have never used the 2 for 1 tickets on wednesday so cannot comment on that.

Is this Company Playing No Limit with its Future?
Margie is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) recently introduced bingo, to its British site. "Bingo Friendzy" as the app is named, is a venture with Gamesys, a large provider of British gambling software. Though you must be of 18 years of age to play, as is British gambling law, the app still features cute furry animals on its Facebook page.
The deal is that Gamesys will manage the app while Facebook promotes it, and slot machines will be arriving "within weeks." Zynga (NASDAQ: ZNGA), Facebook's "longtime" partner, has announced that it will introduce real money versions of poker and bingo for its players as well, something they have been dying to do for some time (and preparing for as well). In fact, according to this article in Business Week, "Zynga Inc. hired Maytal Olsha, a former online-gambling executive, as its chief operating officer of new markets, ahead of the game maker's plans to offer real- money wagering next year."
So Facebook is now in the gambling business. Although Mark Zuckerberg has repeatedly told investors that only the long run concerns him, and urges investors to look beyond the results of the most recent quarter, the simple truth is that the U.S. stock market operates on a much shorter timeframe. The problem for Zuckerberg is the fact that many of his employees have stock options vested at $24 a share. These options are, of course, substantially under water.
Stock, I'm sure, was the primary reason that so much talent defected from Google (NASDAQ: GOOG), Microsoft, and other large tech companies. I seriously doubt that many of them jumped ship because they believed in Facebook's ethos. Even looking only at the long run, in order to retain your talent the short run does matter. Raise the short term stock price, or risk losing his talent back to Google and Softy. That is the unfortunate dilemma that "Long Run Zuck" is faced with.
(Note: If Google were to enter the gambling business, promoting it on Google+, it would run directly in the face of the company's mission: "Do no evil." Now back to our story ...
Having introduced gambling to his British market, it's certainly a logical step that the same will take place back across the pond, here in the United States. The challenge- currently U.S. law prohibits gambling. However, the ban of Internet gambling is breaking down. The U.S. government is losing tax revenue, and the Obama administration has already opened the door for individual states to set their own laws. Nevada has already passed poker legislation, and it is also being considered in California. There's no doubt in my mind that other states will soon follow suit. When will it become legal? No one knows for sure, but the additional tax revenue at a time when almost all states are mired in debt, will prove to be irresistible.
I'm anticipating in the future, that in addition to bingo, Facebook might become the largest poker network in the world; featuring huge pools of players in gigantic no limit hold'em poker tournaments. I'm not sure if Zuckerberg will push all in, and allow a full-fledged poker site with high stake cash games, or even individual tables as it would detract from the "cute, cuddly" image that I believe Facebook is striving for. However, the amount of revenues they would take in from hosting the tournaments might be too tempting to pass up, assuming Mark wants to keep his talent, which will require bolstering his sagging stock price.
The U.S. legalizing poker is not so much theoretical for me, as much as a question of when. So, based on Facebook's recent actions in the United Kingdom, I anticipate that many of you, sometime in the future, will be trying your luck playing no limit tourneys via Facebook.
The mere possibility of these additional revenues, which will have very high profit margins, bolsters the underlying support in terms of buying stock at these levels. I don't think that Zuckerberg intended for Facebook to become a gambling site, he has stated over and over that he is committed to the social benefits that Facebook will give the world. The decision to go down this road is merely pragmatism on his part.

Never one to mince words, John Hufnagel summed up 2012 for the Calgary Stampeders.
"A terrific season," he said at Thursday's fan forum at McMahon Stadium's Red and White Club. "And a horrible ending."
Of course, the head coach and general manager was referring to last year's Grey Cup loss to the Toronto Argonauts, which has not been far from the minds of many, including those at the third annual event which provided around 200 fans an opportunity to quiz Hufnagel, team president Gordon Norrie, and players Keon Raymond and Rob Cote on all things Stampeders. The team also unveiled their 2013 motto: "Whatever it takes."
But Hufnagel made it very clear that what transpired in the 2012 Canadian Football League finale is a big part of their motivation.
"Moving forward in the 2013 season," he said. "Our starting point is that horrible ending."
Early in his address, Hufnagel also slammed the door on any rumours surrounding the Stampeders and their majority owners, the Calgary Flames.
"I just want to put it to bed that the new ownership has been nothing but fantastic and supportive," he said. "If we do hit a valley and we're not winning as much as we're used to, it's not the ownership's fault — it's my fault.
"And I won't allow that to happen, hopefully."
Hufnagel also broke a bit of news, mentioning that there have been no coaching changes, unlike in 2012 when they lost three coaches in the off-season. Hufnagel also said Brad Sinopoli will also be trying his hand at wide receiver, which should provide an interesting angle to this year's training camp.
Sinopoli, who was selected by Calgary as a quarterback in the fourth-round selection from the 2011 CFL draft, was cut from the team but called into action when they lost starter Drew Tate in Game 2.
In terms of player transactions, Hufnagel managed to put the pen to six of their eight free agents.
He talked about preparation ahead of the CFL Draft on May 6 — a class which is loaded with talent particularly in the offensive and defensive lineman positions — where they'll have the seventh pick of the first round and seven selections in total. He and the coaching staff will also prepare for their free agent camps held in Florida.
Hufnagel offered an update of a study the Stampeders medical team underwent, investigating their eyebrow raising amount of knee injuries. The team had the league-most 10 including five defensive lineman undergoing season ending knee surgeries.
"There was really no common denominator as far as the type of surface, the shoe," he said. "The only thing in common was usually contact caused the injury."
However, Hufnagel said he was not satisfied with writing the season off as a "freak year." He wants to decrease the amount of stress players have to put on their knee joints at training camp, cutting out the intense individual period during the team's two-a-day practices.
"What I took seriously was the amount of knee injuries," Hufnagel said. "I'm going to try something."
Meanwhile, incoming president Norrie, who replaces Lyle Bauer, was pressed immediately about the Stadium's fan experience — or lack thereof. The concessions, the washrooms, and the general lineup situation are among many fans chief concerns.
"Certainly, we're aware of the issues," Norrie said. "I know the ticket line for the beer is a big problem, the washroom access is a problem as well. They're big problems for us, too. We're making sure they're fixed."
He was also asked about renovation details — Norrie said there aren't any but said "don't rule out the possibility of a new building."
This year, the Stampeders rookie camp begins on May 29 through June 1 before main training camp starts June 2 (to that, fullback Cote offered to the group: "Training camp sucks. No, it does.").
Their regular CFL season begins at home on June 28 against the B.C. Lions.
