Hi all,
I'm on the brink of buying my first pair of Momo's and would appreciate a little advice/experience...I'm looking at either the 0202 or the 0702. The thing is, my actual waist is 35", and I have fairly large thighs at 24". I'm 5'11" and fairly stocky, but athletic. So the question is, which of the following do you think would fit best:
1) 0202 - 34" waist
2) 0702 - 34" waist
3) 0702 - 36" waist
I guess I'm looking for the slimmest fit possible without it being ridiculously tight on the thighs etc. I would therefore ideally like to get the 0702, not only because they're slimmer fitting but also they're easier to find online. I understand that Momo's don't shrink too much, but I'm still worried that it might be easier getting into Fort Knox after the first wash...
sometimes "ideal" does not mean it's practical. the 202 has a longer back rise ... IMO better cut for your built.post #3138 of 34602/1/14 at 11:33ampost #3139 of 34602/2/14 at 5:44pmpost #3140 of 34602/2/14 at 6:13pm

I've got the 702s and I think you'll love 'em. Mine have been through their first wash. I have to admit that they're stiff as heck at the beginning and not very comfortable. They are comfortable now but that's after six months of wear and one wash.
But....the fadez are absolutely incredible on these. Electric blue!post #3141 of 34602/2/14 at 8:03pmpost #3142 of 34602/2/14 at 8:12pmxposting my fits for my 701 SU1 @W34 & 702 @W33.
701s were comfort slim from the getgo & shrunk a bit more after a couple of years after multiple washes. just glad i sized up on them
702s were a bit tight to start with. loved the denim on this, but after the 4th soak i decided i don't want to deal with stretching them out each out each & every wash, down the line ... so, let them go.
recently, i just special ordered a pair of 202SP w/c i future-sized @W34, so i can enjoy them much longer

Just ordered black denim jeans for my nephews 13th birthday- very cool, hope he likes them!!!post #3144 of 34602/3/14 at 4:30pm
Just got my 201's in the mail and they look beautiful. I'm very happy with the fit, a little bit of extra in the waist but not overmuch and it fits nicely around the legs through the taper. About to go do my first hot soak of raw denim ever - any last tips I should know about the process? Basically just planning on sitting in a tub of hot (105 deg F) water for an hour then taking them off to hang dry, am I missing anything? Can I shrink the leg opening more if I let the lower part of the leg soak a little longer?post #3145 of 34602/3/14 at 5:11pmpost #3146 of 34602/3/14 at 6:11pm

At this point it's not a huge deal. If you're not agitating them (ie soaking them via a hot washing cycle), then turning them inside out to protect from indigo loss is so minimal there's really no reason.post #3149 of 34602/7/14 at 2:33ampost #3150 of 34602/7/14 at 2:50amReturn HomeBack to Forum: Streetwear and Denim

Ronaldo is focused on that goal, given the vast distance between Real and Barcelona in La Liga.
"The first gift I would ask for is the Decima [10th European Cup], something very special for Real Madrid after so many years without winning it and, of course, it would be also for me," said Ronaldo.
"The Champions League is the most for a player and to win it excites me a lot this year. I've been playing for 10 years as a professional and I am proud of what I have accomplished.
"I have many challenges ahead. The Champions League and Copa del Rey with Madrid, because we know the League is very complicated."

Have you been thinking of purchasing an updated version of your car? Because of this you could possibly need financing. In this scenario of disaster, low rate auto loan can serve you the very best financing depending on your fiscal needs as well as prerequisites.
Standard auto loan is simple to avail but finding a low rate auto loan is a challenging endeavor. It calls for a great deal of research work so that additional resources can get the low rate auto loan.
It might be possible a thought comes to the individuals head that what's low rate auto loan and how can it be distinct from conventional auto loan in the industry. Only, as such there is not any difference between both of these kinds of loans but financial market uses the term low rate auto loan when the loan has low annual percentage rate. Low yearly percent means low interest rate and low cost. To put it differently, a loan that tends to lessen the monthly payments of an individual and makes the repayments affordable.
In case the individual follows specific tricks, undoubtedly he can avail competitive low rate auto loan. First, the individual shouldn't ever take an offer without comparing it to the alternatives available. It's generally viewed that individuals in delight of shopping for an auto forget to compare the price and take the initial offer that might not be a best loan price. So, it's strongly recommended that distinct offers of loan should be compared on the grounds of the annual percentage rate as well as on the conditions of financing.
Second, credit score of a man places a terrific effect on the choice of the lender supplying a low rate loan. In addition it's a fact the lender also chooses to offer low rate auto loan to the great credit scorer as compared to poor credit scorer. Generally, the nice credit scorer is definitely offered with competitive and low annual percentage rate. The man should try to enhance his credit rating by making timely payments to the bank. And, when the individual constructs the trust in the mind of lender by timely payments, then he'll also be offered with competitive interest rate.
Thirdly, the factor which helps the individual in availing low rate auto loan is using the great credit rating of some other individual that's, availing loan through cosigner. Cosigner is just as a guarantee to the lender that if somehow the debtor is unable to satisfy the repayments, in such event the co signer will likely be accountable for most of the payments.

Best under eye setting powder
I use this product as a concealer not just under my eyes. It works better than anything else I've used for breakouts and because of the contents of the product I can safely use it at night.
Used before and this was a great price.
Expensive for the small quantity, but a good concealer.
I love this as a concealer it doesnt settle into the creases around the eyes
Have used it for years and it effectively covers the dark circles.
Well packaged and fast delivery
The best consealer I've come across. I put it under the foundation, brightens my eye area.
Love it!
Only need a minute amount to achieve great results
Sadly, not as good as I expected.
Very good service, quick, efficient, would definitely use again.
Great service and really quick efficient delivery!! Thank you :)
love this product very good for brightening the eye area
Great product. I struggle to find under eye make up that doesn't settle into the creases of my skin. This being a powder base I find is perfect and very easy to blend. They also have a vast range of shades to choose from.
Évaluation du service : Très bon emballage, pas d'erreurs dans les produits, délais de livraison très bonsProduit : Ne couvre pas les cernes autant qu'on le pense
Absolutely love it! Cannot get over how full coverage it is and the brightening effect it has under the eyes! Will repurchase.
hides the bags
Good under eye concealer. It does lessen dark circles, but tends to be a bit drying especially if you have fine lines under your eye.
Fab 10 out of 1021-Dec-2014Love this site , AMAZING!!!!
Great for dark circles and any other blemishes on the face. I certainly wouldn't be without it Great under my fairly medium bare minerals foundation. :-)

I'm making a bucket list for my kiddos this year. DD is off to K next year and DS off to 3 day a week prek, so I just feel that this summer should be extra special, especially for DD!
So ideas are greatly appreciated, i'll start and give a few. Most are pinterest of course! They're in no particular order.
1. Outdoor movie theater at home. DH said it wouldn't be too hard.
2. I'm not sure what they called it but its clear plastic tarps duck tapes together and filled with water. Kids get to jump and slide around on it.
These ones have travel/$$ in them and probably the only ones that we will actually go and do. I think the ones above are more memorable :)
3. First Amusement park visit.
4. First Drive-in movie theater.
5. Aquarium (we seriously think DD may become a marine biologist, she loves to watch the national geographic channels, can name sharks by looks, shes good!)

Powered by immigrants and diverse communities across the country, Drop the I-Word has worked steadily through advocacy and coverage at Colorlines.com to present the dehumanizing and inaccurate aspects of the i-word, give space for immigrants to tell their stories, and to highlight the history behind the term "illegal" and other dehumanizing language. By Spring 2013, the Associated Press, USA Today, LA Times, San Francisco Chronicle, and many other news outlets dropped the i-word, affecting millions of readers daily nationwide. Drop the I-Word continues to advocate for change at the NY Times, Washington Post, and media outlets everywhere.

PORT HUENEME, Calif. (AP) - A small earthquake in Southern California has rocked an area of Ventura County near Port Hueneme (weye-NEE'-mee), about 66 miles west of Los Angeles.

Great tank

About Me Casual Dresser
Best Uses
Comments about Lucy Feel The Beat Singlet - Women's:
I knew I had to have this tank. Built in bra, cute back straps and bra detail, as well as a loose tank that hides tummy flaws? How much more perfect can you get? I've had this shirt for a few weeks now and it is my favorite shirt that I own. I am a 38C and normally shy away from any exercise that makes the girls jiggle, but this tank holds everything in place during any activity. I wear it for working out and also pair it with jeans/shorts to run errands, go to the mall, etc. It's good for everything!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Jon Lester
- Position(s):
- Born:
- January 7, 1984
- Bats:
- Left
- Throws:
- Left
- Height:
- 6' 4"
- Weight:
- 240 lbs
- Major League Debut:
- 6-10-2006 with BOS
- Allstar Selections:
Less than two years after being diagnosed with lymphoma, Lester started and won the final game of the 2007 World Series, and in May 2008, pitched a no-hitter against the Kansas City Royals.
High school
Lester attended Bellarmine Prep in Tacoma, Washington, where he was a three-time MVP and three-time All-Area selection. In addition, he was named Gatorade State Player of the Year for Washington in 2000.
The Red Sox drafted Lester in the second round (No. 57 overall) of the 2002 draft and gave him the highest signing bonus of any second-rounder that year, $1 million.
Lester quickly moved through the Red Sox organization, posting an 11–6 record, a league-leading 2.61 ERA and a league-best 163 strikeouts for the AA Portland Sea Dogs in 2005. He was named Eastern League Pitcher of the Year and Red Sox Minor League Pitcher of the Year and was selected as the left-handed pitcher on the Eastern League's year-end All-Star team and on the year-end Topps AA All-Star squad.
Lester has been one of the Red Sox' top-rated prospects since he signed with the club, and other major league teams have made efforts to acquire him. The Texas Rangers had demanded Lester be part of the proposed but ultimately rejected deal before the 2004 season for Alex Rodriguez. The Florida Marlins insisted he be included in the trade for Josh Beckett before the 2006 season, but again, the Sox were able to keep Lester.
With a rash of injuries and general ineffectiveness of several Red Sox starters, the team called up Lester on June 10, 2006 to make his major league debut against the Texas Rangers. He put up a 4.76 ERA in 81.1 innings pitched in 2006, his rookie year. Lester was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, a treatable cancer, in the middle of the season (see Battle with lymphoma for more details). He finished the season with a 7–2 record.
Following the successful treatment of his lymphoma, Lester was able to return to the Red Sox midway through the season. In the 2007 World Series, Lester won the series-clinching Game Four for the Red Sox, pitching 5⅔ shutout innings, giving up just 3 hits and 3 walks while collecting 3 strikeouts. Lester became just the third pitcher in World Series history to win a series clinching game in his first post-season start.
Rumors swirled again in the 2007 offseason when the Minnesota Twins were looking to trade star ace Johan Santana. The Red Sox proposed multiple offers to the Twins for Santana — including one package that would have traded Lester and other prospects — but the Twins ultimately dealt Santana to the New York Mets.
In 2008, Lester went 16–6 with a 3.21 ERA and emerged as a top lefty pitcher in the AL. Along with his no-hitter, he also pitched a complete game five-hit shut out in his first start at Yankee Stadium. He was named the AL Pitcher of the Month in July and September. Lester was also a key figure in the Red Sox' victory over the Angels in the American League Divisional Series, pitching 14 innings without allowing an earned run. Lester has the second highest winning percentage of all starting pitchers over the last three years (27–8, .771), and also led the Red Sox in innings pitched in 2008 with 210.3.
Lester's losses in Games 3 and 7 of the 2008 ALCS were the first losses he had ever had in consecutive starts.
On March 8, 2009, Lester agreed to a five-year, $30 million contract extension with a $14 million team option in 2014.
On June 6, 2009, Lester made his bid for a second no-hitter against the AL West-leading Texas Rangers at Fenway. He pitched 6 1/3 perfect innings, striking out 10 batters, on only 61 pitches through the first six innings. Michael Young hit a one-out double to left center field in the 7th inning to break up the no-hitter, but Lester stayed in to pitch a complete game, striking out a total of 11 batters, giving hm 23 Ks in two starts (he had a career-best 12 Ks his previous start).
On August 14, 2009, Lester struck out 10 batters for the sixth time in the 2009 season, the most times ever by a Red Sox lefty.
In 2010 Lester got off to a slow start. After winning his final start in April, he won five of the six games he started in May. Lester went 5–0 with a 1.84 era and 45 strikeouts and was named the American League Pitcher of the Month. This was the third time he was honored with the award.
On June 16 he got his 50th career win against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Lester was selected to the American League All-Star team on July 1, this was his first selection. At the time of the break he was 11–3 with a 2.78 era and 124 strikeouts. He pitched the 6th inning for the AL allowing no baserunners.
On July 25 he took a perfect game into the 6th inning against the Seattle Mariners but lost it in the bottom of the fifth due to an error made by Eric Patterson. A home run by Michael Saunders broke up the no hit bid. The Sox eventually lost the game. The loss at the Mariners was the second of four losses in a row Lester took after the all star break; this was the first time he lost two decisions in a row in his career. He would eventually turn it around throwing 6 shutout innings against the Yankees and then 8 shutout innings, despite feeling sick, against the Rangers. Lester finished the season strong but fell just short of 20 wins.
Lester finished the season T-4th in Wins (19) and in 4th place in strikeouts (225) in the Majors (AL and NL combined) in 2010. He finished 25th in the Major Leagues with a 3.25 E.R.A. in an excellent year for pitchers.
On May 19, 2008, Lester threw his first career Major League no-hitter, and the 18th in Red Sox history, in a 7–0 win against the Kansas City Royals. Lester threw 130 pitches in the game, allowing only two walks and striking out 9 batters, although he was charged with a throwing error on a pickoff attempt in the second inning. It was the first no-hitter thrown by a Red Sox left-handed pitcher since Mel Parnell in 1956, the first in MLB since Clay Buchholz's September 2007 no-hitter, and the MLB-record fourth no-hitter caught by Jason Varitek. It was also only the second no-hitter ever pitched against the Royals; Nolan Ryan pitched the other in 1973.
After the game, Red Sox manager Terry Francona, who earlier in the day had attended his son's commencement ceremony at the University of Pennsylvania, was quoted as saying, "This probably isn't fair to say, but I feel like my son graduated and my son threw a no-hitter. It's probably selfish on my part to even say something like that. But I think it's obvious how we feel about this kid."
Just as Clay Buchholz's no-hitter was preserved by a diving play by rookie second basemen Dustin Pedroia, Lester's was preserved by a diving catch by rookie center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury to end the fourth inning.
Personal life
On January 9, 2009, he married his girlfriend Farrah Stone Johnson, whom he met in 2007 while making rehab starts in single-A Greenville.
Lymphoma diagnosis and comeback
On August 27, 2006, Lester was scratched from his scheduled start against the Oakland Athletics due to a sore back. The following day he was placed on the 15-day disabled list, and was sent back to Boston for testing. At the time, Lester's back problems were thought to be the result of a car crash he was involved in earlier in the month. On August 31 it was reported that Lester had been diagnosed with enlarged lymph nodes and was being tested for a variety of ailments, including forms of cancer. A few days later, doctors at Massachusetts General Hospital confirmed that Lester had a treatable form of anaplastic large cell lymphoma.
Lester underwent off-season chemotherapy treatments at Seattle's Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, named after the former MLB pitcher and manager whose life was cut short by cancer at age 45 in 1964. In December 2006, ESPN.com reported that Lester's latest CT Scan showed no signs of the disease, which appeared to be in remission. Lester attended spring training in 2007, and started the season for the class A Greenville Drive. Lester then started for AAA Pawtucket Red Sox in late April 2007. In June, Lester was removed from the disabled list, and sent to Pawtucket for further rehab outings. Lester made his first 2007 start for the Boston Red Sox on July 23 against the Cleveland Indians at Jacobs Field in Cleveland, pitching 6 innings, allowing 2 runs on 5 hits and struck out 6, picking up the win. Lester started and won the clinching game of the 2007 World Series, Game 4 against the Colorado Rockies.
To honor Lester's comeback from lymphoma, the Boston Baseball Writers' Association of America voted him the 2007 Tony Conigliaro Award. In an appropriate coincidence, Lester also received the 2008 Hutch Award, given to the Major League player who "best exemplifies the fighting spirit and competitive desire" of Hutchinson, after whom Lester's treatment center was named.
In March 2011, Jon Lester partnered with Charity Wines to release his own wine label under the Longball Cellars brand. Proceeds from sales of his CabernAce cabernet support the Hutchinson Cancer Research Center to aid the development of targeted immunotherapies. Funds raised from this initiative will help researchers maximize the body's own ability to strike out and eliminate disease so lymphoma patients can extend their life. He is partnering with teammate Clay Buchholz who is also releasing a Charity Wine, called ChardonClay, to raise money for the Jimmy Fund.

Remember when it was hard to find a PS3? NotifyWire says those days might well be over. Due to many miscreants set on making a quick buck flipping the consoles on eBay or Craigslist and not making the sale, many shops are starting to see returns. What's more, after the Xmas rush we're currently experiencing, there will likely be more. In fact, a significant percentage of the PS3s… Read More
Wiimote Goes All Internal
When I was about eleven years old, I received my first keyboard (the musical kind). It was a Casio SK-5, notable in that it could hold up to four digital samples, recorded via the on-board mic or from a handheld to the mic port. One of the first things I did was take it apart. I wanted to know how it worked. I didn't know what was what, but it sparked a life-long love of seeing the guts… Read More
China Demands Standardized Cell Phone Chargers
Thanks to a move by China, multi-adapter phone chargers might be obsolete in the near future. The country is demanding that its cell phone manufacturers switch to a standard input for recharging batteries in mobile handsets. It would be something similar to a USB port and would reduce electronic waste, since you wouldn't be throwing out a charger every time you bought a new… Read More

Do Cameraphone Megapixels Really Add Up?

(See Corrections & Amplifications item below.)
SEOUL—U.S. President Barack Obama urged members of the Group of 20 to stand firm against protectionism and called for a joint commitment to growth, part of a concerted effort by U.S. officials to ameliorate global discord on economic policy.
His letter came amid finger-pointing that has threatened to overwhelm the meeting of world leaders. Mr. Obama arrived in Seoul on Wednesday night for a series of critical meetings Thursday, including with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, whose government has led the criticism of U.S. dollar policy, and Chinese President Hu Jintao, who has resisted the U.S. president's push on China's currency.
A draft G-20 communiqué illustrated the divisions. Prepared Wednesday for G-20 leaders, it said the group will increasingly let markets determine currency rates. But officials remained undecided about how to discuss currency interventions. The Wednesday draft says the G-20 will "refrain from competitive devaluation," the same language as from a meeting of finance ministers several weeks ago. The draft has the alternative "competitive undervaluation" in brackets, an apparent reference to China, suggesting officials are divided.
Officials also indicated leaders would fudge the key issue of how to reduce global economic imbalances, with Germany and China opposing a move by U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner to focus on trade as an indicator. Mr. Geithner said over the weekend that the Seoul summit likely wouldn't agree on specific targets.
Instead, the G-20 may leave it to the International Monetary Fund to sort out, said Canadian Finance Minister Jim Flaherty. The IMF would report to G-20 finance ministers at their next meeting in February to "define what the options are" on the planned "indicative guidelines," which would measure whether trade surpluses or deficits—which reflect and underlie exchange rates—are in a danger category.
As originally conceived, at least by the U.S., this G-20 gathering was a chance to push China to allow its currency to appreciate more quickly. U.S. officials want countries with trade surpluses, such as China, to consume more domestically and export less, which will help America save more domestically and export more.
But countries have turned the tables on the U.S. in recent days. Several, including Germany, accused the Federal Reserve of driving down the value of the dollar, particularly through a controversial new program to buy $600 billion of U.S. government bonds and other assets. American officials, including the president, have denied the central bank is manipulating the dollar and have said U.S. growth should be in every country's interest.
The Federal Reserve policy looks unlikely to be mentioned formally by the G-20 leaders. Although China has led the criticism of the Fed, it isn't pushing to have the Seoul communiqué single out the central bank, a Chinese official said Wednesday.
U.S. officials believe the depth of the disagreement is being overstated in the pressure-filled last few days before the summit. Given opposition to the trade guidelines, the U.S. isn't likely to press for trade targets in Seoul. U.S. officials hope emotions will ease if leaders endorse what their ministers previously agreed to.
The squabbling among finance ministers "overstates the level of disagreement about the challenges we have ahead," said Mr. Geithner. "We think everyone is going to have an interest in lowering the temperature and defusing some of the tension by agreeing on a multilateral process for helping to resolve these pressures" on the global financial system.
Mr. Geithner and his counterparts in Singapore and Australia in an editorial called on world leaders to embrace a four-point plan targeting growth, currencies, capital flows and protectionism. "The deep economic challenges left by the crisis in the established economies and the prospect of rapid expansion in emerging economies necessitate a new agenda for international economic cooperation," they wrote in Thursday's Wall Street Journal Asia.
At a meeting of business and political leaders several miles from Seoul's Coex Center, several executives expressed frustration that the currency and trade-imbalance issue had disrupted plans to improve economic growth.
"Will there be angst? Yes," said Harold McGraw III, chairman and chief executive of McGraw Hill Cos., who is in Seoul meeting with business and political leaders. "They have to ask themselves, 'What do you want?' Do you want protectionism or do you want growth?"
In a sign of the tensions, 50 officials late Tuesday debated in raised voices the parts of the memorandum dealing with currencies and trade imbalances, according to Kim Yoon-Kyung, a spokesman for South Korea's Presidential Committee for the G-20.
"We had to physically open the door to the meeting, the debate was so hot," he told reporters. "We were lacking oxygen."

More Feedback
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
everything-trips, mentorship, volunteer and board membership.

perfect, amazing, everything and anything.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
change more kids' lives.
Ways to make it better...
it was already great.
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
growing larger and still maintaining the core value of what Summer Search is to Summer Search but more importantly to students.

Saturday blog: Breaking down the Hawkeyes' resumé
Posted in March 15th, 2014
John Bohnenkamp
It seems likely, but certainly not the lock that it was a couple of weeks ago, that the Iowa basketball team will be heading to the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2006. There still will be some nerves in Iowa City around 5 p.m. today, when the 68-team field is announced. The Hawkeyes are 20-12 overall, but have lost six of their last seven games heading into the tournament. They've gone from a sure thing to let's-wait-to-be-sure-thing. It was just a few weeks ago when the Hawkeyes were nationally ranked and in contention for a Big Ten title. It made Selection Sunday seem like it was going to be a day of celebration for Iowa, something the program hasn't seen in a long time. And it probably still will be, although it looks like the Hawkeyes will have done just enough to get an at-large spot. Iowa's numbers are decent enough to get a bid, especially in comparison to some of the teams that have been under consideration. But there are enough warts to merit plenty of discussion for the NCAA selection committee this weekend in Indianapolis. A breakdown of what the committee has seen on the Hawkeyes' resumé:
Iowa's official ranking in the Ratings Percentage Index, a formula used by the selection committee, is 54th. That's "bubble" territory, but the RPI is only a road map used by the committee. It's not the lone determining factor. Iowa had five wins over teams in the top 50 in the RPI, two over teams in the top 25. That puts them in a better position than last year, when they were left out of the field with a similar overall record (that team was 20-11).
• Neutral court record:
The committee likes to see how a team does on a neutral court, since that's where the tournament is played. Iowa is 3-2 on neutral courts this season, with a win over likely tournament team Xavier (46th in the RPI) and an overtime loss to Villanova, a possible No. 1 seed. Thursday's first-round loss to Northwestern at the Big Ten Tournament in Indianapolis, though, may garner just as much attention as those other games.
• Road record:
The Hawkeyes went 4-6 away from home this season. One of those wins was at Ohio State (23rd in the RPI), and Iowa had a three-point loss at Iowa State (10th in the RPI) and a four-point loss at Wisconsin (No. 6 in the RPI).
• Record against teams in the tournament:
Only the committee knows this, and it changes during the selection process throughout the weekend. Iowa is 4-8 against likely tournament teams (wins over Xavier, Ohio State, Michigan and Nebraska). If Minnesota makes the field (highly unlikely at this point), the record goes to 5-9.
• Bad losses:
The Hawkeyes really didn't have any of these until the end of the season. The home defeat to Illinois to end the regular season and the loss to Northwestern in the Big Ten Tournament really stick out. Illinois is an NIT candidate, and Northwestern finished the season with a losing record. The road losses to Minnesota and Indiana also are blemishes on the resumé, but considering other quality teams lost in Minneapolis and Bloomington, they don't have much sting. Iowa's worst deficit in a defeat this season was by 10 points at Michigan State. The other 11 losses were by eight points or less.
• How they finished.
The committee used to look at a team's record over the last 10 games, but that's not much of a factor anymore. The committee examines a team's entire body of work. Still, the latest stretch of the Hawkeyes' struggles (4-8 in the last 12 games) will catch the committee's eyes, especially the losses to Illinois and Northwestern.
• Other metrics.
The committee does have access to other computer formulas, although they don't carry much weight. Iowa is 17th in the Sagarin computer rankings and 23rd in Ken Pomeroy's rankings. Those rankings factor in scoring margin, something the RPI does not. It's an OK resumé, not a great resume. And it should be enough to get them into the tournament. The bracketologists have Iowa anywhere from a ninth to an 11th seed. I'll go with a 10 seed, playing in St. Louis. But at this point, the Hawkeyes will take anything, anywhere, that they can get.

Credit history checks by employers now prohibited
|| Print |
|High Five
|Thursday, July 01, 2010
A new law passed by the Oregon state legislature prohibits employers from using credit history as a factor in hiring, firing, demoting or suspending employees, unless they can prove that good credit history is important for the job.
The vote was divided nearly along party lines, with House and Senate Republicans mostly opposed.

Comments about Honey Can Do 80 in. Dual Bar Chrome Adjustable Garment Rack:
The instructions are terrible...all the pix of the bars look the same and in reality all but 4 (if I recall correcty) are different. It took a while to figure out what went where and only after looking at the pix on the box did I finally get it right. Aside from that, all the parts were there and it appears to be well made. Time will tell on that. I might buy it again but only because I now know how it goes together, but I probably wouldn't buy another make of this brand if the instructions are as poor for all.
