Saturday, September 19th 10am-6pm
430 West State Street, Ithaca, NY 14850
In the Seneca street parking lot!
We buy quality children's winter coats, snow pants, snow boots, winter accessories, & Halloween costumes all year long and stow them away for this fun-filled event. We will continue to have winter outerwear for purchase throughout the winter, but this is always our best selection of the year. PLUS, at checkout, you get to spin the wheel of savings for 10, 15, or 20% OFF your total purchase of outerwear and Halloween costumes. So save the date and plan to attend!
Also, we will be donating 5% of the day's gross sales to the Ithaca Children's Garden. This donation will be used to support ICG's fabulous winter programs such as the Fire & Ice Festival!
The event is held in our Seneca street parking lot, behind Mimi's Attic. Just look for the big white tents.
Here are some frequently asked questions about the sale:
Q: Why have a Coat Sale Extravaganza in the first place?
A: The Coat Sale tradition began when we had a tiny, ginger-bread house-like store at the corner of Seneca St. and Plain St. (2004). It was impossible to fit all of our winter outerwear on the sales floor, and our customers needed to stop in daily to find the right size snow gear for each of their kids. We realized that if we put all of our winter outerwear in our parking lot on one day, our customers would know what day to come to have the best chance at finding what they needed. And so the Extravaganza was born! The coat sale also allows us to buy great winter outerwear year-round, regardless of sales floor space, which means a better selection for you!
Q: How long are the checkout lines going to be?
A: We're going to implement the same plan as last year which kept things moving smoothly. All shoppers will enter the same line beginning in the Seneca Street parking lot. You will then be directed to one of our four coat sale registers based on your form of payment, and which lines are shortest. Precedence is given to those paying with CASH!
Note: There will be registers in Mimi's Attic and Mama Goose designated for non-coat sale merchandise only.
Q: If I am paying with store credit can I go straight in to Mama Goose?
A: No, sorry. Everyone should enter through the same line (no matter how you are paying) beginning in the Seneca Street parking lot. Once inside of Mimi's, one of our staff members or volunteers will direct you to the correct register line for your type of payment. This plan helps to avoid the confusion that can happen when people enter Mama Goose from different doors.
Q: Will you accept credit cards?
A: Yes, we are happy to accept all forms of payment, but CASH makes the lines go much faster! So, if possible, try to stop at the ATM!
Q: How much will the winter outerwear and Halloween costumes be discounted?
A: When you get to the register, you will either spin the "Wheel of Savings" or draw a marble from the "Discount Jar". You will receive anywhere between 10 and 20% off your total purchase of winter outerwear and Halloween costumes.
Q: Is it worth coming if I can't get there until the afternoon?
A: Definitely! The sale will run all day, from 10am-6pm. We have TONS of merchandise to put out (this is our best selection of the year!) Just come and have fun whenever you can make it!
Q: Can I use my frequent customer stamp card?
A: In order to keep the lines moving, we don't stamp frequent customer cards at the Coat Sale. However, all Coat Sale Shoppers will receive two great coupons: a 10% off coupon for Mimi's Attic, and a $5 "return visit" coupon for Mama Goose. If you have a full stamp card the day of the sale, you can redeem it at the register.
Q: What if I want to shop for non-Coat Sale items like school clothes, books, shoes, toys, diapering supplies, etc.?
A: We recommend that you complete your Coat Sale purchases first, then go shop inside of the Goose. We will have a register reserved for non-coat sale purchases only!
Q: Can I browse at Mimi's before I check out?
A: We ask that you complete your Coat Sale purchases and then go browse. Everyone who makes a purchase at the Coat Sale will receive a Mimi's coupon for 10% off your total purchase which you can use on Coat Sale day or any time before October 31st.
Q: I have lots of kids, nieces, and nephews. Are there going to be carts or something I so I can load up?
A: We will be providing large, clear hefty bags to help you navigate the sale with your bounty!
Q: What if it rains?
A: We have two twenty-foot tents, and several 12×12 foot tents in addition to our shipping and receiving area. We will also direct and manage the checkout lines to keep you sheltered and dry. Don't worry. We've got you covered!
Q: Will you be buying on the day of the Coat Sale?
A: We apologize for any inconvenience, but we will not be buying on the day of the Coat Sale.
Normal buying will resume on Monday the 21st.
Q: I'm not familiar with the area, where can I park?
A: Mama Goose Ithaca is located in Ithaca's West End, which is easy to get to from route 13. Here is a handy MAP for your convenience. If you are coming from the north, simply take a left off of route 13 South onto Buffalo Street and proceed two blocks, and look for parking on Buffalo Street. Then simply walk down Corn St (across from the park) and you will be right next to the sale. Parking is free on weekends. Parking can also be found on Corn, State or Seneca Street. Note that our address is 430 West State Street, the coat sale takes place around the back on Seneca Street in our parking lot.
If you have any unanswered questions, feel free call us at 607-269-0600.
We hope to see you at the Extravaganza! Don't forget to bring a friend and making a day of it! You are sure not to walk away empty handed.
*In addition to our quality used outerwear, our stock of NEW Snow Stoppers gloves and mittens will be available for the first time of the season and included in the sale!

Cary, I'm fascinated by what I think you're talking about here. Could you go into a bit more detail about these datum planes you use and your parametric approach? Pictures, videos, and personal, one-on-one hand-holding at your expense are all welcomed. Thanks!
Well, I don't want to "hijack" Vektor's thread here so I'm just going to post once on that topic... if you want to pursue this further, we can create another thread or we can go "private."
I'm going to use my "Bonaventure" model as a reference. But this approach follows generally.
Unlike with some other vessels, my work on the Bonaventure has the entire hull constructed as a single "part." On more complicated efforts, I make assemblies of multiple parts. (This version of the Bonaventure was never intended to be a "complex" model, so much as a "what if" exercise... just to see if I could make the animated-series ship look good, and look real, and make a degree of sense to me.)
Here's a cross-section of the Bonaventure. You can see the various datum planes reflecting my floors and ceilings (those are normally hidden) The "model tree" at the left is a sequential display of what is created in what sequence... I'd usually cut that part of the UI out of the view, but it's worth seeing it here... the point is that I created those (reflecting my floor and ceiling surfaces) before ANYTHING else, and use them as a reference as I create everything else.
(click the thumbnail to see the full-size image... don't want to make the thread load more slowly than it should for images unrelated to Vektor's work!)
Now, virtually all geometry in ENGINEERING applications (as opposed to "artistic" applications... ) is done using sketched 2D sections in one fashion or another. Here's a simple example... you can see the parametric sketch which defines the rotated cross-section for my "main sensor/deflector dish." An axis exists in the part (created separately) and I used that as the centerline of my sketch... drew 1/2 of the shape, and revolved it around that axis to create a solid (not "surfaces" like most 3D graphics programs do, but they have similar functions that just do surfaces).
You'll note that the sketch is dimensioned, of course... I can create those dimensions simply (as seen here) by entering a value into them directly... or I can have complicated mathematical algorithms. Most commonly, simpler equations are used, though... things like "the diameter is 1/10 of the length" or conditional things like "replicate this pattern by X times... with X being 5 if the length is less than or equal to this value, and 8 if X is greater" or so forth.
It's almost like working with a programming language (and yes, I can even implement input routines or conditional loops or any other programming tool you're accustomed to, so that the model regenerates itself "on the fly" based upon my input.
Now, you can any geometry referencing any other geometry, basically... so I sketch basic shapes and guides and so forth before I start my physical modeling, most of the time. Since virtually EVERY "physical feature" is based upon sketches anyway, it's only reasonable to have certain "root" sketches that everything else follows from.
SO... after working out he basics, and figuring out generally how many decks I want it to be, how long I want it to be, where certain features need to be, etc, etc... I use that to create my basic... well... "skeleton" for the model. And I use those features to define later features. For instance, the centerlines of my nacelles are defined by a distance from the centerline of the secondary hull and an angle from the centerline of the secondary hull (well, actually from the axis which I created to represent the centerline of my warp reactor assembly... but you get the idea).
What it means to be "parametric" is that we're dealing with ALGEBRA rather than with "locked in stone numbers." I can easily adjust the angle or the distance simply by altering the value of that particular dimension, and "regenerating" the model.
Now, for instance... I created a parameter up-front called "floor-to-ceiling_ht." I established the distance upwards from the deck to the adjacent ceiling. And I established another parameter called "inter-deck-thickness." So, when I started creating my series of decks, instead of typing in a value every time, I simply assigned each plane's location as being offset from the next one by one of those two variables.
If I then decide to change my deck-to-deck spacing to a smaller number, I only need to adjust that one variable and the whole model updates as a result. Granted, some features may fail (like rounds whose original value may result in them intersecting some feature that they didn't intersect before, due to the "respacing") and I may need to "tweak" them a bit to get them to work again... but it's a LOT easier than rebuilding from scratch... or individually moving around NURBS surfaces!
Anyway... that's a basic primer on the differences between "engineering CAD" design (3D, but driven in large part by 2D elements existing in a 3D world) and "rendering" work (which is usually a bit less "dimension-oriented")
My "work" flow is all about the CAD software, of course... but for "hobby" work, I've found that I like doing the model in CAD first, then exporting it to some other software (I've been using Maya 6 for a long time and am pretty good with it... PROVIDED that I can get the damned model to translate in as NURBS!) Once in there, it's divorced from the original, parametric model... it's just a normal Maya model, and can only be edited using the built-in Maya toolset (which is extensive but totally non-engineering-related) The great thing about Maya is that I can do things with rendering that no CAD package every could... like my "real-time flaming bussard collector" effect I have in my "Vega" warp nacelles or the "vorlon skin" morphing exterior radiator panels on the same nacelles... both of which can be seen here...

The Glass Castle: A Memoirby Jeannette Walls
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Jeannette Walls grew up with parents whose ideals and stubborn nonconformity were both their curse and their salvation. Rex and Rose Mary Walls had four children. In the beginning, they lived like nomads, moving among Southwest desert towns, camping in the mountains. Rex was a charismatic, brilliant man who, when sober, captured his children's imagination, teaching them physics, geology, and above all, how to embrace life fearlessly. Rose Mary, who painted and wrote and couldn't stand the responsibility of providing for her family, called herself an "excitement addict." Cooking a meal that would be consumed in fifteen minutes had no appeal when she could make a painting that might last forever.
Later, when the money ran out, or the romance of the wandering life faded, the Walls retreated to the dismal West Virginia mining town—and the family—Rex Walls had done everything he could to escape. He drank. He stole the grocery money and disappeared for days. As the dysfunction of the family escalated, Jeannette and her brother and sisters had to fend for themselves, supporting one another as they weathered their parents' betrayals and, finally, found the resources and will to leave home.
What is so astonishing about Jeannette Walls is not just that she had the guts and tenacity and intelligence to get out, but that she describes her parents with such deep affection and generosity. Hers is a story of triumph against all odds, but also a tender, moving tale of unconditional love in a family that despite its profound flaws gave her the fiery determination to carve out a successful life on her own terms.
For two decades, Jeannette Walls hid her roots. Now she tells her own story. A regular contributor to MSNBC.com, she lives in New York and Long Island and is married to the writer John Taylor.
The first book by the beloved author of the new novel The Silver Star, the extraordinary, one-of-a-kind, "nothing short of spectacular" (Entertainment Weekly) memoir from one of the world's most gifted storytellers that has been on the New York Times bestseller list for more than six years.
The Glass Castle is a remarkable memoir of resilience and redemption, and a revelatory look into a family at once deeply dysfunctional and uniquely vibrant. When sober, Jeannette's brilliant and charismatic father captured his children's imagination, teaching them physics, geology, and how to embrace life fearlessly. But when he drank, he was dishonest and destructive. Her mother was a free spirit who abhorred the idea of domesticity and didn't want the responsibility of raising a family.
The Walls children learned to take care of themselves. They fed, clothed, and protected one another, and eventually found their way to New York. Their parents followed them, choosing to be homeless even as their children prospered.
The Glass Castle is truly astonishing—a memoir permeated by the intense love of a peculiar but loyal family.
The second child of a scholarly, alcoholic father and an eccentric artist mother discusses her family's nomadic upbringing from the Arizona desert, to Las Vegas, to an Appalachian mining town, during which her siblings and she fended for themselves while their parents outmaneuvered bill collectors and the authorities. Reprint. 125,000 first printing.
About the Author
Jeannette Walls was born in Phoenix, Arizona, and grew up in the southwest and Welch, West Virginia. She graduated from Barnard College and was a journalist in New York City for twenty years. Her memoir, The Glass Castle, has been a New York Times bestseller for more than five years. Walls lives in rural Virginia with her husband, the writer John Taylor.

Swann's ADW-330 FamilyCam Is A Baby Monitor On 'Roids
It's called the ADW-330 FamilyCam, but we all know that's a euphemism for 'spycam'. In any case, the ADW-330 FamilyCam is a baby monitor on steroids. The package deal sends digital encrypted video (i.e. no one can intercept) from the swivel camera to the handheld LCD monitor. Range of the device is 165 ft, which should suffice for most spying monitoring and thanks to the digital signal it won't interfere with WiFi or Bluetooth signals.
The Swanna ADW-330 FamilyCam is available now in black and white for $200.

I just bought this in white with the intention of lining my waterline for a fresher look, but there was absolutely no color payoff. I even scribbled it on my hand to see if it did anything, and even with that force there was barely any color on my hand :( Too bad! Guess the price was too good to be true after all. Maybe the black and plum pencils are different.

They reformulated the product. I've had no problems getting it to show up on my waterline. Was hesitant to try it because of the poor reviews, but look for the ones with the packaging that says "NEW FORMULA"

I loved the fact that this product came with it's own little sharpener but had absolutely no luck with the actual product. The pencil dragged on the the lid and was quite painful to use. I unfortunately had also bought a lip pencil as well which was identical to the eye pencil. Just way too hard! But the upside is the sharpener is of good quality!

Awful. I couldn't even get a good line on my hand, even after rubbing hard. It is a good thing I tried to swatch first before actually putting it to my eye. I didn't even bother to return it, I just threw it away.

Ugh, one of the worst eye pencils I've ever tried! And I've tried them all! This one, really hard. I would have had to damage my skin to get any on my lids. Just awful! I love E.L.F products, but not these.

I might as well have used a pencil you use to write with. No color, tugs on eyelids. Buy Wet N Wild instead if you want something cheap that actually will work.

Piece of crap. Thank goodness it was just a buck. Doesn't show up at all and jus..doesn't work at all. The only good thing about it is the sharpener on the cap but the cap barely even stays on at all.

This eyeliner was only a dollar, so I decided to buy it when I ordered some brushes from ELF. Don't let it's name fool you. Then again, any fool would know that black cannot do any sort of "brightening". It does not brighten your eyes. It smudges VERY easily. It runs. It's not very "black", might I add. You have to apply it a few times for it to even show up well. You get what you pay for!

Nudiemojis Combines Naked Chicks and Emoticons (NSFW)
Christine Cha
Whether you use a smartphone, Gmail, or Facebook, chances are you've noticed the emoji takeover -- and while a picture may be worth a thousand words, we'd be hard-pressed to give aesthetic merit to miniature icons of hearts, thumbs up, and smiley faces with sunglasses.
But thanks to New York artist Christine Cha, these digital charms are making their way off the computer screen and into the art world, with a little help from the female body.

Nudiemojis, which is currently on display at the Greenpoint Gallery in Brooklyn, is a new series by Cha that combines female nudes with the popular style of emojis and emoticons. Using cut-outs of voluptuous Playboys, Cha delivers a playful perspective of the female form by adding cleverly placed cartoon faces, turning them into characters with everyday male names and captions.
According to Flavorwire, Cha says the intended goal behind this juxtaposition is about "bringing the female nude and the subject of femininity into play without making it about feminism." And whether you find the concept of cartoon eyes drawn over nipples sexy or slapstick, we're sure your curious to see more (NSFW, sort of).

Even though we're coming up on Spring, we're still surrounded by huge piles of snow, crusty ice, and lots of icky mud. We've got a lot of work set out for us in regards to garden-planning, seed-buying, and seedling planting. Inside, however, is where the majority of the work is still being done (unless you count snow removal after every storm—THANK YOU CHRIS!!!).
I sewed a cute jacket for Judah out of my Sewing for Boys book. I love the book and the jacket!
Hannah, Chris, and I made strawberry and chocolate Hamantashen for Purim. It was a fun and yummy project this past week:
And then today I FINALLY got around to making strawberry-rhubarb jam from the strawberries Hannah and I picked last summer and the rhubarb I got from my neighbor Alice.
I used a low sugar recipe included in the Pomona's Pectin which is my favorite pectin and allows for the most varieties in terms of type and amount of sugar. I was a little distracted with kiddos running around and so even though I tried to be SO focused I ended up skipping the rather important step of crushing the berries. I'm disappointed in myself because, as you may remember, last year my strawberry jam was runny and I SO wanted to have this year's come out perfectly. But, oh well! The berries were very small and the rhubarb was chopped pretty small as well so it's really just a very chunky jam. It's not overly sweet and tastes yummy.
Hannah and Judah and I took a couple of jars over to Alice while it was still warm and i was glad to finally fulfill my side of the bargain in return for the rhubarb.
But, as always, these beauties are the ones I'm most focused on raising! :)

What is your ideal sitting position for watching TV?

What is your ideal sitting position for watching TV?
I'm just wondering how people prefer to watch TV (and long movies in particular). I'm trying to find the most comfortable sitting position for watching long movies, so I won't have to fidget and change positions throughout the movie.
Do you sit on a couch or on a chair?
Do you rest your head or do you prefer to sit up straight?
Do you use a pillow to support your back or head?
If you sit on a reclining chair, do you prefer the upright, semi-reclined or fully-reclined positions?
Do you sit in front of the TV or off to the side?
Do your sitting preferences vary depending on watch show or movie you're watching?
May swift death come to all enemies of Extrotech!

The E-flite Carbon-Z Cub aircraft is the first to offer patented Carbon-Z strength and rigidity in a giant scale package. Like the full-scale Cub Crafters Carbon Cub SS airplane, this ultra-lightweight model by World Aerobatic Champion Quique Somenzini is astonishingly versatile whether your intention is to cruise gracefully or surprise scale admirers with envelope busting aerobatics. Helping you at the sticks is the extraordinary AS3X system built into the included Spektrum AR635 receiver, which makes it possible for you to experience agility far beyond the classic Cub form, while at the same time providing stability better than the original with control that s always natural feeling no matter how you like to fly.Based on a platform known for its legendary versatility, the Carbon-Z Cub makes giant scale so simple now even more RC pilots can go big. Its enormous Tundra wheels tackle just about any terrain you choose to romp from, or you can easily mount the optional Carbon-Z Cub Float Set so no RC adventure boundaries stand in your way. A mechanism is included for towing sailplanes with wingspans as large as 3-meters and there s even an optional camera mount so you can take one-of-a-kind images from a bird s eye view. Even if you get carried away, the Carbon-Z structure is easy to repair.A major part of what makes this giant scale icon so versatile is the control innovation package included as standard equipment such as the digital, metal-gear servos, and slop-free ball-link hardware. Because the included flaps are functional, greater control at low airspeeds is possible in addition to the ability to significantly shorten takeoff and landing distances.Although this aircraft may look tame, its brushless power system has been specially developed to offer incredible muscle for unbelievable STOL performance as well as the versatility to excel as a multi-purpose aircraft. Practically all that s left to do is to bind to your favorite DSM2 /DSMX compatible 6-channel computer transmitter for airplanes, a 3200mAh 22.2V 30C Li-Po flight battery and balance Li-Po charger.
When the original Carbon-Z Yak 54 3D was introduced it broke new ground in out-of-the-box 3D performance expectations. Back by popular demand, this version of the Carbon-Z Yak 54 3X is better than even we thought was possible. The advanced AS3X (Artificial Stabilization 3-aXis) system built into the AR635 receiver is what helps give the Carbon-Z Yak 54 3X such a wide flight envelope and incredible stability. Because it works behind the scenes to help counter the effects of wind and turbulence your workload to fly smoothly is greatly reduced giving you the confidence you need to explore a broad range of aerobatic styles with a level of precision and convenience never before possible. You can even adjust the amount of assistance the AS3X System provides or turn it off completely, but even 3D pros will find flying with it on feels completely natural.On the inside, the hollow Z-foam structure is precisely fused with carbon and composites so the airframe can take an extreme beating while offering precision control that rivals a high-end, full-composite aerobat. The entire airframe features strength enhancements so it can withstand today s aggressive new level of 3D flight endurance expectations. Its power-to-weight ratio is still 2:1, but the upgraded speed control hosts a more robust BEC so its complement of updated digital servos can deliver peak precision. All combined, the Carbon-Z Yak 54 3X catapults what you should expect in a 3D precision airplane to a higher level, yet still offers the ability to be flight ready in the time it takes to charge a flight battery.Whether you re an intermediate pilot looking for a performance upgrade, or a 3D hotshot, the E-flite Carbon-Z Yak 54 3X is ideal. This value packed aircraft even includes a high-output E-flite 2800mAh 14.4V 4S 30C Li-Po battery. All that s needed to start flying right away is a 4S Li-Po balance charger and your favorite 4+ channel DSM2 /DSMX aircraft transmitter with adjustable dual rates and exponential.
Landing has always been one of the biggest concerns for new pilots, but not anymore. Designed to be as intuitive as possible, the HobbyZone Sportsman S+ comes loaded with SAFE Plus technology which is equipped with advanced attitude awareness and a GPS system so pilots can leave their hesitancy on the runway, even if it s their first time flying. Like the beautiful full-scale Glasair Sportsman, the Sportsman S+ is a natural in the sky with the freedom of four-channel control and a powerful brushless motor that comes pre-installed. If a pilot is skittish about the landing, no problem. In the right conditions, the Sportsman S+ will perform the landing with no help from the pilot. Features Included with the HobbyZone Sportsman S+ AutoLand- When activated, Autoland returns the Sportsman S+ safely to the ground with little to no pilot input. When flying in rougher conditions, you can provide some directional guidance and let the system do the rest to execute a safe landing. Holding Pattern- Push a button, and the Sportsman S+ will automatically fly to a point near its takeoff location and circle at an altitude of approximately 120 feet. Once the command is cancelled, you have full control of the aircraft and can continue to fly. Virtual Fence- You can choose between a circular setting with 360-degree fence or a rectangular setting with a fence that prevents the Sportsman S+ from flying behind you. Both fences will prevent the aircraft from flying too far away. When the Sportsman S+ encounters the Virtual Fence boundary, the control system will automatically activate Holding Pattern and return the aircraft to near its takeoff location and circle until you cancel the command.

Customer Accounts - Classification of Accounts
The principal types of account ownership are the following:
- Individual
- Joint
- Corporate
- Partnership
- Fiduciary or Custodial
Individual Accounts
An individual account has one beneficial owner, who is the only person who can control investments within the account and request distributions or cash or securities from the account.
Joint Accounts
Two or more adults may act as co-owners of a joint account, with each allowed some form of control over the account. Joint accounts may be designated as Tenants in Common (TIC), Joint Tenants with Right of Survivorship (JTWROS) or Tenants by Entirety (TBE).
- When one owner in a Tenants in Common account dies, the remaining interest passes to the decedent's estate in a proportion that matches the proportion of his or her ownership while alive. The percentage of ownership is not passed to the surviving account co-owner(s).
- This is not the case with a Joint Tenants with Right of Survivorship account, in which case the remaining rights are passed in equal amounts to the surviving account co-owner(s).
- Finally, Tenants by Entirety accounts may only be established by married couples. When one spouse dies, the surviving spouse simply retains ownership of the account.
Corporate Accounts
The corporate resolution will specify which officers may trade in the corporation's account. In addition, a certified copy of the corporate charter and the company's bylaws are required to open a margin account.
Partnership Accounts
A partnership account differs from a corporate account in that it is the unincorporated association of two or more individuals. The partnership account agreement will specify which partners can make transactions for the account. Partnerships can open cash, margin or retirement accounts, provided all investment limitations are disclosed.
Fiduciary or Custodial Accounts
A fiduciary is a person other than the owner who is legally appointed and authorized to act in the stead of a beneficiary. In most cases, the fiduciary should provide documentation of his or her authority. The fiduciary initiates trades, manages the account, approves distributions and makes whatever other decisions may be necessary to maintain the fiduciary account. Investments are made in the owner's best interests, but the owner does not have legal control over them.
The fiduciary is bound by Prudent Man Rules (also known as Prudent Person Rules) - that is, he or she must make decisions that are compatible with the account's investment objectives and that are in the best interests of the beneficiary. The fiduciary may not use the account for his or her own benefit; he or she can charge a reasonable fee for services, but cannot share in the account's profits. In some states, fiduciaries are also bound by the legal list of investments permitted by the state.
Fiduciaries include but are not limited to people performing the following roles:
- Trustee - administers a trust
- Custodian - manages a UGMA or UTMA account (discussed below)
- Guardian - handles a minor's affairs until the minor reaches the age of majority or an incompetent person's affairs
- Executor - manages the affairs of an estate
- Administrator - liquidates the estate of a person who dies without a will
- Conservator - acts for an incompetent person
- Receiver - handles the details of bankruptcies

The leading scorer for South Dakota after transferring from Kansas State, guard Juevol Myles scored 13 points. Nine of those came in the second half. With less than eight minutes to play, the Coyotes only trailed Kansas State by five. Ultimately, though, South Dakota could not keep up with Kansas State, and the Wildcats defeated the Coyotes 70-50. ''Good game for about 30 minutes, and then they really turned it up and turned us over,'' South Dakota coach Dave Boots said. ''I was proud of our kids that we got off to a slow start and they came back and hung in there in the second half and had a good battle.'' Nino Williams scored 16 points for the Wildcats, and Rodney McGruder added 15. Karim Rowson led the Coyotes with 14 points, six of which came from free throws. A significant portion of Myles' scoring also came from getting to the char...
