Prop Adam Jones, regarded as one of the finest scrummagers in world rugby, will miss games against Argentina, Samoa, New Zealand and Australia due to a knee problem, the Welsh Rugby Union announced on Friday night.
Jones went off early in the second half during the Ospreys' Heineken Cup defeat against Leicester on Sunday and now faces a lay-off of between six and 10 weeks.
The Wales squad, under interim head coach Rob Howley's direction, leave for a training camp in Poland this weekend.
Jones, 31, had been due to be part of those pre-autumn preparations, but he will now concentrate on regaining full fitness prior to Wales' RBS 6 Nations title defence.
The WRU said Jones will be regularly assessed to establish an accurate timescale for his return to playing. He was reviewed by an orthopaedic surgeon today.
Jones, who has won 83 caps and played in two Tests for the British and Irish Lions on their 2009 South Africa tour, originally injured his knee last month.
But his early exit against Leicester set alarm bells ringing, and concerns over his fitness were sufficient for Wales to draft uncapped Scarlets prop Samson Lee into their squad as cover for Jones in Poland.
A decision on whether Lee now joins the autumn Test squad permanently, or another player is called up, will be made at a later date.
Apart from his immense value to Wales, Jones could also be considered a prime candidate to tour Australia with the Lions next summer.
That squad will be headed up by Wales boss Warren Gatland, which is why Howley is in charge for Wales' autumn Test programme and the Six Nations campaign.
Wales' Six Nations opener is against Ireland in early February.
Jones' absence is the second setback to hit Wales this term.
Flanker Dan Lydiate, player of the tournament in last season's Six Nations, suffered a serious ankle injury during a RaboDirect PRO12 game against Edinburgh.
It is thought he is unlikely to regain full fitness until after the Six Nations, although like Jones, he should be fit and available for the Lions tour.
Wales start their autumn programme against Argentina on November 10 before facing Samoa six days later.
They then meet world champions New Zealand on November 24 before concluding the autumn programme against Australia seven days later.
Wales have not beaten the All Blacks since 1953, while they will meet the Wallabies for the first time since losing all three Tests Down Under earlier this year.

The Herman Miller Setu Chair is the first unmistakably 21st century office chair. New, innovative, precisely engineered, and beautifully designed, the Setu Chair mirrors the rush of technology and the bustle of the modern workplace. It's also designed to deal with the downsides of the modern workplace: long stretches of sitting, working at computers, and fatigue. Every inch of the Setu Chair has been molded and re-molded, finessed, until it has become the ideal chair for the today's office, and the today's worker.
Commissioned by furniture design giant Herman Miller, and designed by the gifted Studio 7.5 out of Germany, the Setu Chair has an impeccable pedigree. The research, design, and execution of the Setu Chair was shepherded at every step by the best designers and furniture minds in the world. When Herman Miller first contacted Studio 7.5 to do the work, the goal was simple: a work chair that was comfortable, environmentally responsible, stunning to look at, and a perfect fit for the modern office. The designers at Studio 7.5 responded with a chair that met and exceeded every immodest goal: the Setu Chair.
The first thing you notice about the Setu Chair is the artful beauty of its line. Consisting of four graceful curves designed to fit, support and comfort the human frame, the profile of the chair cuts a dramatic and unmistakable silhouette. The front curve, the edge of the seat, is designed to relieve pressure on the thighs. This is one of the persistent problems of the modern workplace: long periods of sitting which create strain, bad circulation, and even bruising on the thighs. The Setu Chair solves that problem, increasing comfort and blood flow, which in turn leads to more energy and a higher level of productivity. That's right, the design of the Setu Chair can actually help you do your job. The second and third curves combine to create a recessed joint at the juncture of the back and seat of the chair. This carved-out U creates a comfort pocket which accommodates the demands of various postures, heights, builds and weights of the user. This curvature also enables the Setu Chair to bend and recline in conjunction with your body, and under your own power.
The chair responds to your pressure (when leaning back or turning) and responds accordingly. Pretty smart. The Herman Miller Setu Chair is adaptable to every possible user, and this comfort pocket is just one of the many reasons why. The fourth curve echoes the first, and creates a softer edge at the top of the chair, where the head and neck are meant to recline. Similar to the front edge of the seat, this curve ensures the all-day comfort of your head and neck, even when leaning and reclining. The elegant arms of the Setu Chair describe an arc as well, this one sharper than the others. The arm rest tilts slightly up, decreasing pressure and discomfort on the forearms (often caused by long periods of typing) and settling the elbow into a comfortable curve. Taken at a glance, these curves are both beautiful, functional, and smart.
The next thing you might take note of in regards to the Herman Miller Setu Chair is the distinctive spine attached to the backing and seat of the chair. Studio 7.5 called this major innovation the Kinematic Spine. The Kinematic Spine is a hyper-responsive, intuitive design element that enables your unlimited and ultra-comfortable movement in the Setu Chair. Designed to look like the human spine, and arranged against the back and seat of the chair as an exoskeleton, it is a transparent, hip and useful piece of furniture design. When you sit in the Setu Chair, it is the Kinematic Spine that allows for your freedom of movement. It is the Kinematic Spine that allows the Setu Chair to be one of the first chairs that requires absolutely no adjustments or tilt settings to conform to your seating needs. The Kinematic Spine makes the chair natural and responsive, comfortable and creative. It also happens to be a wonder of engineering.
The Herman Miller Setu Chair is also known by the following manufacturer Item Numbers: CQ53MN, CQ53MA, CQ51MN, CQ51MA.
The primary element in modern society, the lightning fast and ever-changing rise of technology in the last few decades, has radically altered everything about modern life. Work has changed, homes have changed; language and communication have been altered, the speed and efficiency of work has gone up. The designers of the Setu Chair, German design group Studio 7.5, understood this. So did Herman Miller, the manufacturer of the exquisite Setu task chair. In every detail, every design adjustment and innovation, these artists and engineers attempted to solve the puzzle of modern life; how to use technology to your fullest advantage while at the same time retaining your sanity, comfort, and peace of mind. The Setu Chair is the physical embodiment of their answers to the complicated algorithm of modern life. It's a modern sculpture in a classic tone, and a dazzling accomplishment of traditional craftsmanship and advanced technological research.
In previous years, before the advent of the technology present in the Herman Miller Setu Chair very little was expected of your office chair. It needed to be pretty comfortable, and durable, and most of all, it needed to be cheap. Your options were limited as far as personalization went, and mostly your choices came down to rolling or non-rolling, leather or cloth. When it came to actual work, no one ever made the suggestion that your chair should be a partner in the process of doing your business. But now all of that has changed. With the rise of new technology, the radical re-alignment of workspaces and the reconsideration of what work even means in the modern world, chairs have been called upon to achieve ever greater efficiencies, uses, and comfort. The Setu Chair is a tonic for these evolving priorities.
The Setu Chair was built for deployment in almost any seating situation. There are several versions of the chair; the barstool version, the rolling version, the steel base version. The barstool version of the Setu Chair is taller, with very long legs. The height of the chairs is, of course, ideal for bar seating, but also countertop meals, high tables, and cafeterias. The barstool version of the Setu Chair offers all the comfort advantages of the regular version, because of the revolutionary design which makes obsolete all the adjustment levers and gears that usually accompany the task chair. The bar stool version of the Setu Chair is simply a variation in height which suits an altered need for seating. The rolling version of the Setu Chair marries the convenience and comfort of the Setu Chair to the efficiency and fun of the rolling office chair. With the rolling Setu, you can reach your desk, tables, and all workstations with a few quick pushes and pulls. The rolling Setu Chair adds convenience and efficiency, and a dash of fun, to your workday, increasing productivity. The steel base version of the Setu Chair offers the user the advantages of steel; strength, durability, weight. The steel base Setu Chair is solid and strong, just like the design and engineering that went into it. All of these variations hope to contribute a ration of comfort and style to your busy day. The Setu comes in several colors as well, upping even further the potential for a personal re-invention and customization of the chair to your exact needs and specifications. But it is the Swiss army knife adaptability of the Setu Chair that most directly addresses technology.
The Herman Miller Setu ChairThe Setu Chair is a wonder of furniture engineering. The only adjustment the user has to make when sitting in the chair is height. That's it. The Setu's groundbreaking Kinematic Spine and comfort pocket will take it from there. The edges of the seat flex and conform to your shape, as does the elastomeric fiber that composes the seat and back. The Kinematic Spine stretches, bends, leans and reclines with you, reading your body to find your center of gravity and your optimum weight distribution. The Herman Miller Setu Chair is a truly smart chair, intuitive and capable. It was designed in Germany by the innovative and free-spirited design firm Studio 7.5, and their playful yet technologically sound design ethos sets the chair apart from most of its contemporaries. For Studio 7.5, less is usually more, both in the philosophical and the literal sense. The Setu Chair literally has less material than most fine chairs on the market today. It's breezy and super-light through the seat and back. At the same times, it's also extremely strong and agile, and with its high-tech elastomeric fiber and the Kinematic Spine, it's able to support the weight, stress, and bending of any body. Less is literally more with the Herman Miller Setu Chair, and that's a wondrous paradox.
This particular detail may raise some red flags in your mind. Typically, the most attractive types of office furniture are those that are fully customizable. The more levers and knobs available to adjust height, depth, rigidity and flexibility, the better. Right? Wrong. The Herman Miller Setu Chair takes this typically accepted convention and turns it on its head. The revolutionary construction of this chair is what sets it apart from its competitors, and is also what sets it free to be recognized as a hands-free office chair. In today's society, automation of daily tasks is becoming something that is necessary; whether it be paying bills, making phone calls or sending emails, fluidity is key. There is a time for serious investment of oneself into activities and movements, but sitting down should not be one of those activities. Enjoy the hands-free fluidity of the Setu Chair. Don't waste a second on trying to figure out which lever to pull or which knob to turn, simply sit down in comfort and get to work.
DurabilityWhile the chair is lightweight, flexible, and thin in the back and seat, it's also incredibly strong. The elastomeric fibers of the fabric and the Kinetic Spine combine to form a flexible but strong whole that can support all types of weight, height, and shapes. Herman Miller is in the business of building beautiful, useful chairs that last a long time, and the Setu Chair is just one more in a long line of excellent office chairs. It's also just the latest to come with an outstanding warranty from the manufacturer.
The Setu Chair is guaranteed for 12 years by Herman Miller. That's a big commitment, but the craftsman at Herman Miller and Studio 7.5, who built the Setu Chair, are confident in their excellent work and in the strong, durable materials. The Setu Chair is composed of aluminum, steel, and plastic, long-lasting tough materials. The warranty is even more impressive when you look at it in terms of value. For instance, how much would you pay to be comfortable, supported, and flexible at work per day? Would you pay a dollar? More than that?
Put it in context. How much do you spend a day on snacks? Coffee? When you consider the small expenses you encounter every day, they all start to add up. How many of those things last you for years and years to come, protected by a stout warranty and excellent customer service? The answer is probably very few of them. It makes sense to invest in quality, comfort and dependability. Ally yourselves with Herman Miller and Studio 7.5, because they understand how the small things make big differences.
If you invest in the Setu Chair, over the 12 years of its warranty (and at it's current base cost of $499) it will only cost you 11 cents a day to have all that and more in a beautiful, stylish, and modern chair. That's a bargain no matter which way you slice it.
DesignTypically, when furniture is designed, it is created to fit well into the world that surrounds it. Whether it's the office or outdoors, furniture is often a product of its surroundings. With the Setu, all of that changes. The designers at Studio 7.5 understood that the most important part of a chair is not its surroundings, but rather the human occupying it. Designed with this principle foremost in mind, the defining characteristics of this chair are the elements of design that resemble the human form. The Kinematic Spine is the backbone of this chair, and it creates an experience that was never before possible; when you sit down, you feel nothing but what nature intended. There is nothing to be felt that is not already naturally occurring in the human body. On top of the chair's naturally occurring, humanist design, it also features a sleek, slim-line appearance that transforms its surroundings into a museum display of modernist chic. At its core though, the Setu's appearance is most directly informed by the design that created its revolutionary construction. The designers at Studio 7.5 understood that today's working environment has changed. More people in smaller spaces are the backbone of collaboration, and the Setu is specially designed to encourage, not inhibit this process. With a slim, chic design that capitalizes on a special intuition of how the human body operates while at work, the Setu knows what you need and always delivers.
One Size Fits AllThere really is no way for a chair with complex mechanisms to be compatible with multifarious body types. The Setu allows for any sized individual to sit down and experience instant comfort. By cutting out the frivolity of excess systems, the intuition of this design adapts perfectly to all shapes and sizes with one simple motion: sitting down. There are no quirks, no gimmicks, just a startlingly simple solution to a startlingly frustrating problem. Thanks to Studio 7.5, we now know that this problem need not be addressed with bells and whistles. Simple motion meets simple design.
The Kinematic SpineThere is a high amount of ergonomic knowledge built into this chair. Before the Herman Miller Setu Chair, the Kinematic Spine had to separate with a joint between the seat and the back of the chair. The new design provides one fluid piece that seamlessly connects the back of the chair to the seat, providing an unprecedented amount of support and flexibility. Studio 7.5, in the process of designing this chair, examined the basic mechanics of the human body, and then dissected those mechanics with complex equations and engineering. At the outcome some things became very clear; one of these was that the human body has a spine, not a hinge. Spines curve, they don't connect at a 45 degree angle. These simple observations are the ones that directly informed the design of the Kinematic Spine of the Herman Miller Setu Chair. It's amazing what a simple observation of the human body can lead to. The most complex organism provides a simple insight into furniture design.
Inspired By NatureThe spiraling shape of the Kinematic Spine was painstakingly designed to reflect the beauty of naturally occurring, underwater specimens. If you look at coral reefs and shellfish, the spiraling design of the crustacean's shell is a direct influence to the aesthetics of the Setu chair. The natural grace with which these organisms operate is distinctly correlated to the spiraling beauty of the Kinematic Spine of the Herman Miller Setu Chair. Beautiful in nature meets beautiful indoors. Thanks to Studio 7.5 for taking these natural cues to create a ch
The Herman Miller Setu Chair is all about transparent design, literally. The elastomeric fabric that serves as the back and seat of the chair is a mesh, allowing for semi-transparency and the free passage of air through the chair. That keeps it cool, in more ways than one. Literally cool in that it prevents the build up of heat that can happen with solid or leather chairs and cause discomfort and sweating, and cool in the way it adds to the technological and aesthetic quality of the chair.
The Setu Chair is a must have for the modern office. It is the culmination of years of research into how people sit, how they lean and recline and move, and what workers want out of their home office chairs. Setu answers every need and even a few most folks hadn't thought of: It leans and reclines with you, it conforms to your individual shape and measurements without needing adjustment, it's sustainably built and manufactured by an environmentally-minded corporation, it's beautifully and brilliantly designed, and it comes with a fantastic, long-term warranty. The engineers, designers and artists who worked to create the Setu Chair did it with one goal in mind: to make it perfect for you. They succeeded by building a chair that couldn't have been built before, a wonder of modern design.

I just test-sat the Setu at an office furniture store. Of the 20 or so chairs I tested, this was, by far, the best for my human frame. I found only one other chair (with 5 additional controls!) that was even close to being as comfortable. What a great design! The lumbar support on the Setu is wonderful.Since I have a long torso, few chair arms are useful. If they are adjustable, they must be set at their highest level. In most chairs, my arms hang from my shoulders without relief. I only wish the arms on the Setu were adjustable (or higher above the seat). Then, for me, it would be the perfect chair.

First ImpressionsAfter having done some preliminary research on the Setu Chair, I wasn't expecting very much in the way of actual enjoyment. It's being sold as a revolutionary chair, a one of a kind sitting experience that harnesses technology and design to produce a new sort of extremely comfortable office seat. To me, it just looked like a sort of small, not particularly comfortable or exciting plastic and mesh chair that had no adjustments. The truth is somewhere in the middle, and a lot better than I expected, I have to admit. The Setu is small, but that doesn't detract from how comfortable it is. The mesh is extremely high tech, as is the "kinematic" spine support structure, and I had to sit in the chair for a long time before I felt any discomfort. I really missed having the adjustments that come with most office chairs however - if I had specific needs for support or movement, I would have had a real problem with this chair. In the end, this is a comfortable chair at a comfortable price, but I wouldn't recommend it for any seriously long stretches of sitting.The X FactorThe kinematic spine, which is to say, the lack of adjustments. For some, this will be a turn-off, but it contributes to a clean profile and more stylish chair. For many, that's a trade worth making.The Bottom LineThe Setu Chair is above average, and an effective office chair. For the average worker on an average workday, it outperforms most of the competition. However, it's not made to work long hours or to fit every person that uses it. On the whole, a good but not great piece of furniture.

This chair is perfect as a task chair if you work sitting down for many hours a day. It is light, airy because of the mesh surfaces, and ergonomically perfect (for me, at least).
Service and delivery comments:
Great service, timely delivery. Product was exactly as described. No complaints at all.
Expensive and worth it
By Chris
from Atlanta, GA
Very well-made, suitable for long hours at a desk. It's not only more comfortable than my Aeron chair, it looks much better. Seat adjusts with a touch. Color was a surprise: I ordered Rattan, but the frame, arms and seating fabric actually look like various shades of gray. Attractive, but not what I expected. Highly recommend unless you're very picky about color match. Delivered ahead of schedule. Great service.

Smart design at a great value
By Amaniac Design
from Miami, FL
I bought several Setu chairs for my studio and they are great. As a graphic designer who sits in an office chair for extended periods of time - the Setu chair is very comfortable. The chair bends and flexes to your movement (no clunky adjustment knobs needed). The material molds to your body. I like the simplicity of the adjustments (only one for the height). I was able to customize the chairs to fit company's brand colors - they look great in our studio environment!
Light, functional chair
By pedalmike
from Canton, CT
My wife is a quilter and uses the armless version of the Setu as the primary chair in her sewing loft. The Setu is light to move around and ventilates extremely well. The ergonomic curve of the back portion provides good lumbar support. A heavyweight person might overwhelm the structure of the chair. The mesh fabric appears durable. We'll see how it holds up to sunlight and repeated use over time. Our experience with Herman Miller is that they stand behind their products.
Our post order experience with updates on order status and arranging the truck delivery could not have been better. Smart Furniture was exemplary in this regard.

About Me Budget Shopper
The chair looks great! I live in a very small house and have to have my desk in my bedroom. The chair fits perfectly (lowered all the way down) in the space in the middle of the desk so it is out of the way and gives me room to walk around.[...]

About Me High-end Shopper
I ordered this chair without arms, but with the braking wheels which were very unsatisfactory. If the chair was empty, the brakes were on and thus it was very difficult to move the chair. [...] The only problem with the chair is that the top back of the chair has no frame, so you cannot hold on to the top of the chair to move it or drape anything on it. However, there is a frame that you can grab in the middle of the back, so it just takes some getting used to. Other than that, I think that it is a fantastic chair.

Too small
By clang
from Danville, CA
I am 5'4" and weight 124 lbs. I felt the chair was too small for me. The seat depth felt inadequate by at least 2 to 3". I hated to return it, as it is a gorgeous chair. But what size person is this chair made for?
The perfect desk chair
By marj

I use this chair at my desk and as a reading chair as well - it tilts back naturally. Very lightweight, NO assembly to speak of...open the box, set the chair on the base and sit down...no adjustments except height - perfect for me. (I'm 5' 7" and 130 pounds).Also, always looks clean and any smudges wipe off easily...very sharp chair.

By N8

It's a great product. However price vs comfort it comes up a little short. It's not a great chair for long periods, say no more then an hour. I'm glad I bought it, but I wish it was maybe a $150 cheaper.
Comfy for the seat and back of legs
By Phyllis
from Cornville, AZ
I use this chair at my computer but with my very small space I was surprised that the legs come out further than the seat so I have to be careful about moving the chair and not getting tangled with my very short legs!! The mesh seat and back are heaven, with no pressure points from the mesh construction making the the spine, hips and behind legs more comfortable than expected... I get sciatica very easy due to spinal cord injury! --highly recommend for arthritic people!!
Setu Chair Review
By GC
I got to sit in a Setu Chair for about a month and it's pretty decent as an office chair. It doesn't have all the ergonomic goodies like lumbar support and adjustable arms like some higher-priced seating options out there, but as a 'daily-driver' task chair for the everyday user it was definitely a good chair to sit on. The fabric on the seat and back is pliable but pretty supportive, and the flexing back gives just enough so it's easy to lean back without having to force your weight on the chair. It's got seat height adjustment which allows me to move the seat height to a shorter than normal height - nice since I have shorter legs and I end up having to slouch to have my feet on the ground with non-adjustable height chairs.4 stars for not being the perfect chair, but what chair is?

Q: How do I clean it?A: H-Alloy Base, Frame, Kinematic Spine, and Arms: For normal cleaning, wash surface with a soft cloth soaked in mild detergent and warm water.Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or abrasive kitchen cleaners.Lyris Suspension Material: For normal cleaning, vacuum material as needed using an upholstery attachment. Vacuuming picks up dust and reduces the need for professional cleaning. Do not brush fabric or use a vacuum attachment with a rotary brush. Brushing may permanentlydamage the nap or change the character of the fabric. To spot-clean fabric, immediately soak up the stain with a soft absorbent cloth. Do not dry the stain completely or it may set. The longer a stain is allowed to remain on a fabric, the more difficult it is to remove. For water-based stains such as coffee, soft drinks, fruit juices, or milk use a water-basedcleaner (specifically made for cleaning fabric) or a solution of mild (alkaline) warm soapy water(not overly soapy) applied with a damp clean cloth or sponge. Work the cleaner into a lather or foam. Never use hot water; it will set the stain. Avoid scrubbing.For oil-based stains such as lipstick, grease, or salad dressing use a dry cleaning solutionapplied with a damp clean cloth or sponge. Test the cleaning solution on a small, concealedarea first. If there is no spotting, ringing, or damage to the fabric or its dyes, apply the cleaning solution to the soiled area with light, quick strokes. Begin at the outside of the stain andwork toward the center, being careful not to over-saturate the fabric. K2r is also a product thatcan be used. See product label for complete instructions.Do not over apply water or any liquid solution to fabric. Excessive wetting of the fabric with any liquid solution may result in permanent damage to the material.Do not rub too vigorously or you may damage the nap of the fabric or break fibers. Several light applications are better than one heavy application. Soak up all remaining solution and then use another clean cloth or sponge dipped in coolwater to remove any residue.Let fabric dry thoroughly and then vacuum well before using.If the stain resists cleaning, call a professional cleaner.
Is the Setu Chair recyclable?This is a popular question among Smart Furniture customers, and it goes to the heart of what the Setu Chair, Herman Miller, Smart Furniture, and Studio 7.5 (who designed the chair) are all about; service. Not only does the chair make you comfortable, give you great support, and move easily wherever you need it, it also helps you lessen your impact on the environment. Emphatically, yes, the Setu Chair is recyclable. But it isn't only that; it's also easy to recycle. The materials in the chair can be easily broken down into component parts and recycled without the annoyance of time-consuming recycling preparation. It won't be the first time many of the components of the chair have been through the recycling process, as 44 percent off the chair is itself constructed from pre-used and post-consumer materials.
The Setu Chair is composed of aluminum, plastic and steel, 93 percent of which is easily recyclable. That's a huge percentage, much larger than most furniture chains will ever offer. The Setu us also very light and easy to carry; one more obstacle to good recycling habits removed that other furniture companies rarely match. The breezy seat and back of the chair, somewhat perforated to allow the free passage of air, are emblematic both of the chair's remarkable lightness and of Herman Miller's commitment to the idea of natural elements combining with design to form a beguiling and satisfying product.
Herman Miller is on the cutting edge of green technology, and their green factories and manufacturing facilites, as well as their green products, are the envies of furniture companies all over the world. They designed the Setu Chair to be a responsible product, as responsible as they are. The life of the Setu begins in one of Herman Miller's zero emissions manufacturing facilities, where it is built from the ground up by skilled craftsman and the latest technologies. When a Setu Chair is sold, the lifecycle continues within the recyclable and re-usable packaging in which the chair is sent to vendors. It ends, naturally and without disrupting the natural world in a significant way, with the easy and responsible recycling of the product itself.
You won't find a chair this recyclable, this green-friendly, almost anywhere else. That's just one of the many attributes that make it a true Herman Miller product.
What's all this about no adjustments?The Setu Chair is a wonder of furniture engineering. The only adjustment the user has to make when sitting in the chair is height. That's it. The Setu's groundbreaking Kinematic Spine and comfort pocket will take it from there. The edges of the seat flex and conform to your shape, as does the elastomeric fiber that composes the seat and back. The Kinematic Spine stretches, bends, leans and reclines with you, reading your body to find your center of gravity and your optimum weight distribution. The Setu is a truly smart chair, intuitive and capable. It was designed in Germany by the innovative and free-spirited design firm Studio 7.5, and their playful yet technologically sound design ethos sets the chair apart from most of it's contemporaries. For Studio 7.5, less is usually more, both in the philosophical and the literal sense. The Setu Chair literally has less material than most fine chairs on the market today. It's breezy and super-light through the seat and back. At the same times, it's also extremely strong and agile, able, with its high-tech elastomeric fiber and the Kinematic Spine, to support the weight, stress, and bending of any body. Less is literally more with the Setu Chair, and that's a wondrous paradox.
How durable is the Setu Chair?Very durable. While the chair is lightweight, flexible, and thin in the back and seat, it's also incredibly strong. The elastomeric fibers of the fabric and the Kinetic Spine combine to form a flexible but strong whole that can support all types of weight, height, and shapes. Herman Miller is in the business of building beautiful, useful chairs that last a long time, and the Setu Chair is just one more in a long line of excellent office chairs. It's also just the latest to come with an outstanding warranty from the manufacturer.
The Setu is guaranteed for 12 years by Herman Miller. That's a big commitment, but the craftsman at Herman Miller and Studio 7.5, who built the Setu Chair, are confident in their excellent work and in their strong, durable materials. The Setu Chair is composed of aluminum, steel, and plastic, long-lasting tough materials. The warranty is even more impressive when you look at it in terms of value. For instance, how much would you pay to be comfortable, supported, and flexible at work per day? Would you pay a dollar? More than that? If you invest in the Setu Chair, over the 12 years of it's warranty (and at it's current base cost of $499) it will only cost you 11 cents a day to have all that and more in a beautiful, stylish, and modern chair. That's a bargain no matter which way you slice it.
Can I customize the Setu Chair?Smart Furniture was built on the idea that customizing your furniture, the objects that will grow to define your rooms and the spaces in which you live your life, is not only important, but a right of the consumer. Almost everything we sell at Smart Furniture is customizable through our customization engine.
The Setu Chair comes with a 12-year manufacturer's warranty.

HAZARD – The Perry County Board of Education did not take a vote on the contract of Superintendent John Paul Amis during its regular meeting on Thursday, but one official says to expect a vote within a week's time.
Earlier this month the board issued notice for a special called meeting, with the possible termination of Amis's contract being the sole business item on the agenda. The meeting was cancelled the following day due to a technical issue, according Board Chairman John C. Combs, though he did not elaborate.
The board did meet on Thursday following two weeks of speculation that its members would take a vote on Amis's contract at the regular meeting this week, despite the contract issue being absent from the agenda. After taking action on several business items relating to construction and finance issues, the board met for a brief closed session, but quickly adjourned once the regular meeting resumed and took no further action.
Combs commented following the meeting that attorneys are evaluating the contract issue, and he expects the board to meet for a special called meeting within the next seven days, during which they will vote whether or not to terminate Amis's contract.
"I think this is coming to a point where it will be taken care of this week," he said.

GALLIA COUNTY — Although final, official election results won't be tallied and reported by the Gallia County Board of Elections for several days, even the preliminary results published in the Wednesday edition of the Gallipolis Daily Tribune were less complete than normal following a computer error that slowed the tallying of approximately 1,000 absentee votes and delayed the availability of the full unofficial snapshot of how Gallia County residents shaped this election.
The following is a list of still unofficial, but up-to-date Gallia County election results for contested races in the 2012 general election, as provided by the Gallia County Board of Elections:
With all 35 precincts reporting, Gallia Countians cast 12,327 votes in the presidential race, with an overwhelming 61.62 percent supporting Gov. Mitt Romney (R) and 35.91 percent voting for President Barack Obama (D). Each of five additional candidates received less than one percent of the Gallia County vote. Despite strong Republican leanings in southern Ohio, the Associated Press named Obama the winner of battleground Ohio and ultimately the entire race. Romney conceded by telephone shortly after midnight.
On the county level, Gallia decided two commissioners' races, opting to unseat incumbents in both cases. With 11,991 votes cast, "Coach" Brent Saunders (R) netted a slim win over Incumbent Joe Foster (D) with a 51.33 percent to 48.67 percent ratio. In the second commissioners' race, David Smith (R) edged out Incumbent Lois Snyder (D), with a 54.93 percent to 45.07 percent split.
The Clerk of Courts race between Incumbent Noreen Saunders (R) and challenger Belinda Burnett (D) garnered 12,004 votes from Gallia County residents, with 62.29 percent supporting Saunders and 37.71 percent backing Burnett.
In a three-way race for Gallia County Treasurer, Incumbent Steve McGhee (R) won 42.75 percent of the 12,002 votes cast, while Pamela Riley (D) netted 32.94 percent and Gary Jarvis (I) won 24.31 percent.
On the county level, several races went unopposed, but the number of votes for each candidate are as follows: Prosecuting Attorney Jeff Adkins — 8,397; Sheriff Joe Browning — 9,378; Recorder Roger Walker — 8,434; Engineer Brett Boothe — 8,971; and Coroner Dan Whiteley — 9,300.
Gallia County strongly supported Gallipolis native Ryan Smith (R) for State Representative of the 93rd House District with 73.61 percent of the vote as opposed to Josh Bailey's (D) 26.39 percent. Gallia Countians cast 11,841 votes in the race that ultimately went to Smith.
Gallia residents cast 12,052 votes in the U.S. Senator's race among Incumbent Sherrod Brown (D) and challengers Josh Mandel (R) and Scott Rupert (I), with 55.07 percent of the vote going to Mandel, 40.82 percent supporting Brown and 4.11 percent backing Rupert. Brown ultimately pulled enough votes in his district to net the win despite strong Republican support in southern Ohio counties.
Approximately 11,879 Gallia votes were cast in the U.S. Congressional race between Incumbent Bill Johnson (R) and Charlie Wilson (D), with 56.23 percent of the vote going to Johnson and 43.77 percent going to Wilson. Johnson ultimately got the nod.
Gallia County cast 8,201 votes in the State Board of Education race between Jeff Hardin (R) and Todd Book (D), backing Hardin with 72.61 percent of the vote to Book's 27.39 percent. Hardin won the seat, according to unofficial results.
The only unopposed State Senator's race was that of Bob Peterson (R), who netted 7,230 Gallia County votes.
Gallia County residents weighed in on three Supreme Court Justice races. The first, between Terrence O'Donnell (R) and Mike Skindell (D) garnered 8,389 votes in Gallia County, with 61.10 percent going to O'Donnell and 38.90 percent going to Skindell. O'Donnell has won the seat, according to unofficial results.
The second Supreme Court Justice race between Robert Cupp (R) and William O'Neill (D) brought 8,333 Gallia County votes, with 62.28 percent going to O'Neill and 37.72 percent backing Cupp. O'Neill has won the seat, according to unofficial results.
The third Supreme Court race between Yvette McGee Brown (D) and Sharon Kennedy (R) garnered 8,600 Gallia County votes, with 69.76 percent going to Kennedy and 30.24 percent supporting Brown. Kennedy has won the seat, according to unofficial results.
Finally, two seats for the Judge of Court of Appeals 4th District were filled. The first, between Leonard Holzapfel (R) and Marie Hoover (D), netted 9,069 Gallia County votes, with 58.99 percent going to Holzapfel and 41.01 percent going to Hoover. Hoover has won the seat, according to unofficial results.
The second race, in which William Harsha (R) ran unopposed, garnered 7,079 Gallia County votes.
Read tomorrow's edition of the Gallipolis Daily Tribune for an overview of unofficial Gallia County votes on state, regional and local issues.

What a Treat! Gluten-Free Cupcakes
It was a rainy day (this is often the case in Vancouver) and I was out on Commercial Drive going to a deli. I passed by a "gluten-free cupcakes" sign posted outside a shop, and of course couldn't pass by without giving one a try. It was first thing in the day when they opened, so the cupcakes were fresh from the oven and I had the option to choose any icing flavour. With cupcake in hand, I scurried back to the car to get out of the rain and discovered delicious [albeit expensive] lemon-topped goodness. It was a chewy and moist cupcake! That's the texture of baked goods we gluten-free folk dream of. The only gripe I have is that it came in a holly christmas-themed cupcake liner. That's fine during the season, but it's May. I have no complaints about the quality of the cupcakes from Cassia Cupcakery unlike some other visitors. Perhaps the key is getting there first thing when everything's fresh. P.S. there's vegan too.

Yes, the same Greg Oden whose defensive/rebounding efficiency stats when healthy rival Dwight Howard's. And if you're really going to use PPG/RPG to judge, Camby's career average is 10.2ppg and 10.0rpg in 30.6mpg in contrast to Oden's 22.1mpg.
Question: If he could be had for a "reasonable" contract, would you try and sign Greg "Olden" this Summer??? He's an unresricted F/A isn't he?
I think Arnie would have to give him a full check-up. If he ever got near 100%, a frontcourt of Oden, Monroe, Jerebko would be solid.
Something around what used to be the MLE (assuming it disappears). If our training staff is really that good and his body is actually built for 60+ games, it's a win win. We have to find talent steals like this whenever possible.
If you're gonna gamble, do it on a big. Let's get Yao and Oden both. Play one til his breaks, then go with the other one.
We could really use an all-star center on our team like Yao! Maybe we could make some merchandise $ in China. Yao's probably profitable even if he doesn't play.
"probably" He made the All-Star team this year. If Gores wants to help his wallet, he will over pay for Yao just to have him sit on the bench.
adding Oden and Yao for little money would be a too smart thing for Joe to do; rather stick with CV and Maxiell!

Hello everybody,
I am completely new to the NXT programming and using and I need to make a robots for my project in school ... which play soccer ...
What I have:
several sets of Mindstorms Education, Infra seeker sensors, Infra ball, color sensors and I plan to make a football field with several colorfull lines that the robots would track to get to the oposite goal.
What I did:
So I Built a robot with 2 wheels and 3rd motor to rotate hand that either grabs or shoots ball, touch sensor to know when to hold the ball, Infra seeker to know where is the ball and Ultrasonic to know if there is obstacle on the way or not (enemy robot) and color sensor to folow the lines.
What I don't know and need help with:
At the beginning I don't really know how to navigate on the field with my grid of colorfull lines, the original idea was that the robot would simply folow lines and if he detects enemy in front he would change the direction, but I have no clue how to start writing that program.
What do you think is the best way to start / some articles to read / examples to play with (there is way to many of them on internet to go through all of them).
Thanks for any hints given,

"Without the music, I don't think Commencement would be the same," said Emily Threinen, associate professor in the Boyer College of Music and Dance, who will conduct the band during Temple University's main ceremony Thursday, May 16, at 10 a.m. in the Liacouras Center. "There's something about Commencement that I find to be really beautiful in its tradition."

Tyler School of Art and WRTI were among the 43 winners of the Knight Arts Challenge Philadelphia, a three-year arts fundraising challenge from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation.
May 9, 2013
The Night Owls, Temple's community band founded by Boyer College of Music and Dance faculty member Deborah Sheldon, is filling a void in American music education by bringing together diverse communities of musicians of all ages from throughout the region to make music. Comprising more than 90 members, the group rehearses Monday nights and is now preparing for its upcoming concert on Monday, April 29, in the Temple Performing Arts Center.
April 25, 2013
Tonight at 6 p.m. in Conwell Hall Dance Theater, Boyer College of Music and Dance will present "Between: Dance and L2Ork," a performance of repertoire by Virginia Tech University's laptop orchestra combined with live dance improvisation. The concert will feature the world premiere of "Between," a new dance solo and orchestral piece.
Temple Theater Professor Lynne Innerst recently collaborated with directors and cast members to craft a new dialect for the play "Under the Whaleback," staged through early April at the Wilma Theater in Center City Philadelphia. Written by British playwright Richard Bean, the play portrays English merchant fisherman, whose lives of isolation created a unique challenge for the dialect coach. "They see the North Sea, the Arctic, more than they see England or their families," said Innerst.
A juried exhibition of art by 38 graduates of Temple's Tyler School of Art from around the nation — the most ambitious exhibit of Tyler alumni art in all media ever assembled — is on display at the Crane Arts Center's Ice Box Project Space in Philadelphia's Northern Liberties neighborhood through April 13. A free, public opening reception for "Victory for Tyler" will take place on Saturday, April 6, from 6 to 8 p.m. The exhibit benefits student scholarships at Tyler.
"A Fierce Kind of Love," a play sponsored by Temple's Institute on Disabilities that portrays the history of the intellectual disabilities movement, will have its first public reading on Monday, March 18, at Christ Church Neighborhood House in Philadelphia. The reading of the work-in-progress will feature five actors, two of whom have intellectual disabilities, and will be followed by a discussion with the cast, director, playwright and audience.
"Chaotic Silence," an original play performed, directed, produced and created by Center for the Arts students as part of Alpha Psi Omega's Backstage season, tackles the issue of domestic violence and how abusive behavior can be passed down through generations. The cast includes four dancers, three actors, three singers, a band of five instrumentalists and a dance captain. The show runs Saturday and Sunday in the Tomlinson Theater rehearsal hall, room 102.
In honor of the 150th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation and the 50th anniversary of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s March on Washington, Temple's English Department is hosting a reading by poet, essayist, playwright and novelist Ishmael Reed. Reed is known for representing neglected African and African-American perspectives and highlighting all underrepresented peoples and perspectives in his work.
A 12-year collaboration between Associate Professor of Anthropology Jhala Jayasinhji, Temple anthropology students and private artists has grown into a full-fledged Indian study abroad experience and led to a new type of contemporary painting that marries digital techniques with traditional Indian styles. The results can be seen at the exhibit "Painting Story of the Floating Desert," on display through April 30 at the Center for the Humanities at Temple.
Due to fears of looting or damage to important artifacts, many archaeologists prefer to conduct their work in secured areas. But Temple doctoral student Deirdre Kelleher's dig at Philadelphia's historic Elfreth's Alley has been undertaken within full view of the public — and with the help of a number of volunteers. Together they've uncovered 19th century artifacts that could help shed light on the early immigrant experience in the city.
Tyler School of Art students swept top honors at 20th Annual Collab Student Design Competition, held in conjunction with the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Their challenge: Either redesign and repackage an existing, iconic game or design a game of their own. The winners earned cash, got to interact with the judges (all industry leaders), met celebrated Tyler Graphic and Interactive Design alumna Paula Scher and got to have their work displayed at the museum's Perelman Building (through April 14, 2013).
Two major pieces of orchestral music performed and recorded by the Temple University Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Professor Luis Biava have been nominated for a 2013 GRAMMY Award. "Music of Ansel Adams: America" and "Overture, Waltz and Rondo," both nominated in the "Best Instrumental Composition" category, were commissioned by Temple's Boyer College of Music and Dance, recorded at the Temple Performing Arts Center and released on Boyer's record label, BCM&D records.

January 17 marks the anniversary of two famous George Balanchine ballets, Stars and Stripes and A Midsummer Night's Dream.
Stars and Stripes is a ballet set to the music of John Phillip Sousa. Sounds corny? Depending on what you think, it very well might be. Sure, there are high kicks, salutes, batons and the unfurling of the American flag in the finale. Already some people are wincing. But John Martin noted in his first review of the work in 1958 that there are "lifts that would make the Bolshoi Ballet's mouths water." Hershy Kay orchestrated and re-arranged such Sousa pieces as Liberty Bell, El Capitan, Corcoran Cadets and, of course, Stars and Stripes. It all adds up to wonderful entertainment and 55 years later it is still in the company's repertoire. So Balanchine must have done something right!
A Midsummer Night's Dream is set to the music of Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy. Yes, Bartholdy. This is the name the family took when they converted from Judaism to Lutheranism. And that's how he's known, at least most of the time. If you don't believe me look him up in the encyclopedia.
In this ballet Balanchine not only used the familiar Overture and incidental music but also the Athalie Overture, the Fair Melusine, The First Walpurgisnacht Night, Symphony no. 9 for Strings and other less well known Mendelssohn works. The ballet is, as the King sings in The King and I, a puzzlement. Act I depicts the story in mime and dance, but Act II virtually dispenses with the story and concentrates on pure dance. When it first premiered in 1962 it was not exactly greeted with encomiums. But audiences did not seem to care. It has remained one of the company's most popular ballets and I almost dare anyone not to go and come out smiling, especially after watching Puck ascending to the heavens in the finale.
As with all of Balanchine's ballets the music is of the utmost importance. The choreography fits the music. Without this proper fit there would not be a ballet. The music leads and speaks, steps follow, not vice-versa.
Watch some of these clips and next time City Ballet presents these works go to the Koch Theatre and see for yourself what they're all about. You can also go to Amazon and purchase two excellent productions of Balanchine's A Midsummer Night's Dream. Whatever you do I am sure you will be delighted. Such pleasure is rare these days.

The RP will take place just after Ford Prefect took Arthur Dent aboard the Vogons ship. Except this time our characters will be taken aboard unexpectedly at random. The RP will generally go the same way as the book, hunting for Magrathea and the answer to Life, the universe and everything.
The Rp will be limited to 5 characters with a ship captain and possibly a robot.

3. | nuk | ||
1. | nuk | ||
nuk (pronunced: nuck) is a word that can be used to describe an event, person, or inanimate object. Random or intense situations often involving alcohol, marijuana, drunk girls, friends, hazing and general tom-foolery are nuk situations. Referred to as "nukking off", doing something stupid or hilarious could make you a nuk. Popularized by Phi Sigs around West Virginia University, those nuks have left havoc in the wake of their parties. Nukking off in Morgantown is a common occurrence, where beer and jersey guidos are plentiful. Being a nuk is neither good nor bad, because you probably made someone laugh somewhere by describing you as 'that nuk'. Tito: Did Matt just puke on that girl?
Sean: Yeah, what a nuk. Remember that nuk bitch who pissed herself twice on the couch last night? I was nukkin off last night when i ate an 8th of shrooms, a bomb ass e pill, and decided to hit the gym. Patrick: I'm goin' home with a fat girl tonight. Pete: Bro quit nukkin' I had a hard day at work, where's the bong? I'm about to be that other nuk tonight! |
2. | nuk | ||
As black people say "Nig", white people say "Nuk" which is short for nukka "ye ye nuk"
"WORD UP NUK" "yo, get that nuk off mah coat" |
4. | nuk | ||
A term of whitebread affection, usually employed by dumb Texan rednecks. SHiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiittt, Nuk!

Love this bracelet
I find this bracelet so comfortable that I've been wearing for the past 2 months non-stop. I even sleep in it. It's a great basic and I get a ton of complimemnts on it too.

SO small!
i was really excited about this bangle as i have seen it and the other color on many different fashion bloggers that i follow, but it was just WAY TOO small...:-( i tried it on in my house several times, but it was just impossbile to wear and it hurt to get it on and off... i actually have a fairly small wrist, so i'm not sure what the deal was, but it's def going back...i am SO bummed.

Pretty but uncomfortable
I have the G&B railroad spike bangle so thought I would try this, but it was just too uncomfortable. It hurt to put it on, it hurt to wear it, and it hurt to get it off. It's the same size as other bracelets I have, so I don't know what the problem is. I guess it's just too stiff/not flexible enough. If you have a smallish wrist (I would describe mine as average), you should be fine. But mine is going back.
Sizing: True to Size / As Expected

I can not tell you enough how much I love this. It is great for layering, and if you don't like too much on your arms you can wear it by itself. It just fits perfect on arm, and doesn't dangle up and down the wrist at all. It is like a mini cuff that can also be layered with others. I highly recomend it for every reason possible! Now I gotta find the perfect companion pieces to layer it with, since what I thought work didn't... , oh well:) that is life, endless shopping! But this piece is a great piece to buy and worth every penny!
