- Private Equity Firms Face Potential Liability Under Plant Closing Laws
- Incentivising Management Across the Pond
- Excerpt from Private Equity Firms Face Potential Liability Under Plant Closing Laws:
The federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (WARN) requires an employer with 100 or more employees to provide 60 days' advance notice of a "mass layoff" or "plant closing," as defined in the statute, unless an exception is applicable. Several states have comparable laws that typically are triggered at a lower threshold of employment losses. Failure to provide the 60-day notice often results in class action litigation and potential liability for the pay and benefits that the affected employees would have received if the employer had given proper notice. Private equity firms and their holding companies and advisory firms often are drawn into the litigation based on allegations that, whether as a parent entity or a lender, they are liable along with the (frequently bankrupt) portfolio company. Avoiding such litigation and exiting quickly from litigation that could not be avoided will depend on the degree to which the private equity participants proactively manage their activities in light of the criteria the courts use to assess their potential liability.
For example, in December 2013, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit (with jurisdiction over New York, Connecticut and Vermont) ruled in Guippone v. BH S&B Holdings LLC that a private equity firm or its holding company may be liable to a class of employees for the failure of its portfolio company to comply with the WARN law. Essentially, Steve & Barry's was a chain of retail apparel stores owned and operated by Steve & Barry's Industries, Inc. (S&B Industries), the assets of which were purchased by BH S&B Holdings LLC (Holdings), which was wholly owned by BHY S&B Holdco, LLC (HoldCo), a holding company, which in turn was owned by various private equity investment firms. Holdings, the operating company that employed the employees, lacked a board of directors of its own, and the officers of Holdings included representatives from the private equity firms. After Holdings' lender exercised its rights under its loan agreement and "swept" roughly $30 million from Holdings' account, the Holdco board passed a resolution authorizing Holdings to file for bankruptcy protection. It did, quickly followed by store closings and employee terminations. The trial court dismissed the private equity firms at the pleading stage, but denied HoldCo's motion to dismiss. After discovery, the trial court granted HoldCo's motion for summary judgment on the basis that there were not sufficient facts to permit a jury to conclude that HoldCo was a single employer with Holdings.

Trailblazer gives you a high-level architecture for web applications.
Logic that used to get violently pressed into MVC is restructured and decoupled from the Rails framework. New abstraction layers like operations, form objects, authorization policies, data twins and view models guide you towards a better architecture.
By applying encapsulation and good OOP, Trailblazer maximizes reusability of components, gives you a more intuitive structure for growing applications and adds conventions and best practices on top of Rails' primitive MVC stack.
A polymorphic architecture sitting between controller and persistence is designed to handle many different contexts and helps to minimize code to handle various user roles and edge cases.
Controllers in Trailblazer end up as lean HTTP endpoints: they instantly dispatch to an operation.
No business logic is allowed in controllers, only HTTP-related tasks like redirects.
class CommentsController < ApplicationController
def new
form Comment::Update
def create
run Comment::Update do |op|
return redirect_to comments_path(op.model)
render :new
class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :users
belongs_to :thing
scope :recent, -> { limit(10) }
Models only contain associations, scopes and finders. Solely persistence logic is allowed.
That's right: No callbacks, no validations, no business logic in models.
Per public action, there's one operation orchestrating the business logic.
This is where your domain code sits: Validation, callbacks, authorization and application code go here.
Operations are the only place to write to persistence via models.
class Comment::Create < Trailblazer::Operation
contract do
property :body
validates :body, length: {maximum: 160}
def process(params)
if validate(params)
contract do
property :body
validates :body, length: {maximum: 160}
property :author do
property :email
validates :email, email: true
Every operation contains a form object.
This is the place for validations.
Forms are plain Reform classes and allow all features you know from the popular form gem.
Forms can also be rendered using form builders like Formtastic or Simpleform.
Callbacks are invoked from the operation, where you want them to be triggered.
They can be configured in a separate Callback class.
Callbacks are completely decoupled and have to be invoked manually, they won't run magically.
callback do
on_create :notify_owner!
property :author do
on_add :reset_authorship!
policy do
user.admin? or not post.published?
Policies allow authentication on a global or fine-granular level.
Again, this is a completely self-contained class without any coupling to the remaining tiers.
View Model
Cells encapsulate parts of your UI in separate view model classes and introduce a widget architecture.
Views are logic-less. There can be deciders and loops. Any method called in the view is directly called on the cell instance.
Rails helpers can still be used but are limited to the cell's scope.
class Comment::Cell < Cell::ViewModel
property :body
property :author
def show
def author_link
link_to "#{author.email}", author

<%= body %>
By <%= author_link %>

Comments for <%= @thing.name %>

This was created <%= @thing.created_at %>
<%= concept("comment/cell",
collection: @thing.comments) %>
Controller views are still ok to use.
However, replacing huge chunks with cells is encouraged and will simplify your views.
Document APIs like JSON or XML are implemented with Representers which parse and render documents.
Representers are plain Roar classes. They can be automatically infered from the contract schema.
You can use media formats, hypermedia and all other Roar features.
representer do
include Roar::JSON::HAL
property :body
property :user, embedded: true
link(:self) { comment_path(model) }
class Comment::Update < Create
policy do
Trailblazer reintroduces object-orientation.
For each public action, there's one operation class.
Operations inherit contract, policies, representers, etc. and can be fine-tuned for their use case.
Operations, forms, policies, callbacks are all designed for a polymorphic environment.
Different roles, contexts or rules are handled with subclasses instead of messy
class Comment::Create < Trailblazer::Operation
build do |params|
Admin if params[:current_user].admin?
class Admin < Create
contract do
remove_validations! :body
File Layout
In Trailblazer, files that belong to one group are called concepts. They sit in one directory as Trailblazer introduces and new, more intuitive and easier to navigate file structure.
app ├── concepts │ ├── comment │ │ ├── crud.rb │ │ ├── cell.rb │ │ ├── views │ │ │ ├── show.haml │ │ │ ├── list.haml │ │ │ ├── comment.css.sass │ │ └── twin.rb │ │ │ └── post │ └── crud.rb
Trailblazer is an architectural style. However, what sounds nice in theory is backed by gems for you to implement that style.
The gems itself are completely self-contained, minimalistic and solve just one particular problem. Many of them have been in use in thousands of production sites for years.
All gems are documented here.
The Book
Yes, there's a book!
Written by the busy creator of Trailblazer, it is about 70% finished and will get another 150 pages, making it 300 pages full of wisdom about Trailblazer and all the gems.
If you want to learn about this project and if you feel like supporting Open-Source, please buy and read it and let us know what you think.
"At some point of time we started to decouple our form objects from models. Things got a lot easier when we found out there is a ready to use solution which solves our exact problem. That was Reform. Soon after, we started using all other parts of Trailblazer and haven't regretted a second of our time we spent using it." – Igor Pstyga, Shop Hers Inc.
"Here at Chefsclub, we are very happy with Trailblazer. Our application already has 32 concepts, 130+ operations, and Cells surprised us as an awesome feature. We feel pretty safe with it." – Paulo Fabiano Langer, Chefsclub
"Trailblazer helps organize my code, the book showed me how. You can assume what each component does by its name, it's very easy and intuitive, it should be shipped as an essential part of Rails." – Yuri Freire Lima, AzClick

The OB tells me that my cervix is getting shorter and shorter but the cerclage is holding strong. I am 35 weeks, and they plan to remove the cerclage in two weeks. I am guessing that because my cervix continues to shorten, that I will probably begin to dilate soon after they remove it. Has anyone else had this experience? What was your experience with cerclage removal?
how long after cerclage removal did you go into labor?

Sorry, I don't have any information to help you, but I am interested in the responses you get. I will have my cerclage removed on May 10 which is at 36 weeks 5 days for me, and I am curious of how long it might take for her to come. I have been on bedrest since 21 weeks so I will be happy for the freedom, but then again I won't know how long I have to get things done. It is hard for someone like me who likes to be a planner and I have no control over any of this. Oh well, I will just be happy to get off bed rest and then I will be happy to see my little girl when she is ready to come. As long as we make it another 5 weeks I don't care what happens after that.
Good luck to you and your cerclage removal. I hope all goes well with your baby when she comes.

My OB said that pretty much when she cuts the thread, it'll be curtains for me and the baby will be coming. I believe once I approach 36 weeks on June 10th.
So the baby's birthday should be June 10th.
But, if I'm lucky, then I would at least be able to get up and get around. and stall out labor for a week. Wouldn't that be cool?

hmm...I have not been measured since I had my cerclage placed in because I haven't had any 'out of the ordinary' pains and have had not spotting. My peri/ob doesn't want to 'bother' the area 'unnecessarily'...i was at .7 cm before my cerclage, so if I get mine removed @ week 36...i guess we'll be delivering in early or mid June...
Well on the 29th of March had my cerclage removed. I dilated to 2 cm & 100% effaced within 5 minutes, 45 minutes later I was in labor. I gave birth at 1:37am on March 30th. Good Luck!

Hey girls! This is my 3rd cerclage :) The first one failed at 27 weeks, so lets not count that one. But with my DD they removed at 37.5 weeks and MD was sure I will go into labor right away. I was dilated 2 cm and stayed that way for more than a week:) We have the same plan for this one. So we will see. :)

Disappointment over a lack of large discounts led shoppers' satisfaction to dip over the holidays.
Every week last holiday season, save the week leading up to Christmas, shoppers were less satisfied than they were a year earlier, according to results from ForeSee's weekly holiday benchmark index, which analyzes consumers' responses to surveys completed after a visit to one of the 159 individual web sites ForeSee includes in its index. Among the retailers included in the index are Belk, eBags and the Home Depot. Belk is No. 296 in the Internet Retailer Top 500, eBags is No. 114 and Home Depot is No. 43.
The company says it calculates its scores following a methodology from the American Customer Satisfaction Index, which is produced by a private company with ties to the University of Michigan. The index measures consumers' thoughts and experiences regarding pricing, merchandising, site functionality and site content.
Shoppers expected to find deeper discounts than e-retailers offered, says Larry Freed, president and CEO of ForeSee, and this translated into lower satisfaction rates. . "Consumers' expectation that they'll get large discounts grows higher every year," he says. "This is case where retailers were slow to meet consumers' expectations of better prices."
As daily deal sites continue to grow and consumers grow more sophisticated about comparing prices via their mobile devices, shoppers are under the expectation that they won't have to pay full price, which occasionally causes them to wait until a price drops before they make a purchase , says Freed. But while consumers waited, some found that the item had sold out. "As retailers get better at predicting their needs, it is reducing some of their need to discount prices," Freed says. "Which may be frustrating shoppers looking for a deal."
ForeSee's holiday benchmark index results stand in contrast to its annual Holiday E-Retail Satisfaction Index, which analyzes satisfaction for consumers at the top 40 retailers in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide. The average score for the 2011 holiday season was 79, up a point from 78 in 2010, and up from 74 in 2005. A score of 80 is considered 'excellent' by ForeSee.
Those results indicate that larger retailers are doing a better job than smaller merchants of meeting consumers' needs, Freed says. "Some of it is the ability to allocate resources, some of it is their ability to plan for pricing," he says. "That divergence is a challenge for smaller retailers."
On the ground, China's economy looks quite strong. And Chinese consumers crave Western goods.

Trustworthy reviews are our priority. Businesses can't pay to change or remove reviews.
As a couple very passionate about being married and under a budget, Andrea Brown Events initially welcomed us with open arms. This company gave us the impression that she could work with us with anything! Instead she ignored our phone calls and mademails empty promises. She was able to link us with a few vendors and didn't follow through. We believe that she didn't want to service us because we weren't willing to spend big bucks for a wedding. I gave this company so many chances to help me because I loved their work. If you are looking to have a wedding on budget. I strongly do not recommend this company! They are all about MONEY, MONEY AND MORE MONEY! This company does not look for the best interest of the bride. They are very unprofessional and loves to gossip!
Andrea Brown and her team are amazing. She took my vision and improved on it 10 fold. She transported my guest to a Caribbean island with the richness of color and detail in the design. People are still talking about how beautiful the ceremony and reception areas were! I loved having an attendant that kept me on schedule and kept me calm before the ceremony. The attendant was professional, calming and reassuring without being overbearing. That is a MUST have service for every bride.
Andrea and her staff are wonderful. Very professional and down to earth! I will definitely recommend her to anyone!
Andrea Brown started out as our planner, but throughout the planning she was my Aunt, best friend, maid of honor, and at times my mom. She never told me what to do so she can gain finances from us but what could happen from decisions and add on's. I was able to just sit back and concentrate on becoming a wife. At the end of the event, Mrs. Brown family became our family. I highly recommend Andrea Brown Events for any event you and your fiance or family may have. I don't give her 5 stars I give her 10.
If I could use one word to describe the service that Andrea Brown provided for my husband and I, it would be Amazing!!! Wonderful team of people!!!
Andrea Brown Events.....wonderful people. I didn't need or want for anything. Thank you for making my dreams come true.
Our day was perfect because Andrea is passionate and very professional as a wedding coordinator. Andrea provided top notch vendors that has people still commenting on it when they see us.
My husband and I really enjoyed working with Andrea and having her coordinate our day! She helped us choose wonderful venues at a professional level! I look forward to working with her in the future milestone occasions!

well, I'm going to be one of the minority here...I was so excited to try this lip liner out and came to find out the color was not right at all. It was too dark and too brown for my liking. I also noticed some of the other negative critiques mentioned this same thing. I am 45 yrs old and I surely don't need that kind of look. Even my 14 yr old daughter said it looked horrible, (before I said anything). The consistency was lovely, tough...it glided on very well and I could tell it would have good staying power.

This is more of a mauvey-brown color with a hint of rose, but it is absolutely gorgeous. The soft (but not too soft!) pencil does not drag at lips at all and create a lovely line. I always fill in my lips as well and then blend with the brush at the other end. This looks great under a clear gloss and makes a smashing combo with Chanel's Glossimer in Paillettes. The only word I can find to describe it is special.
The only problem I have is that the cap on the pencil is loose and fell off when I had it in my purse. Now my wallet has streaks of Nude all over it! Now I just keep the liner at home, because it lasts so long anyway, but a more secure packaging would be nice for the price!
Will definitely repurchase!

Yes, the name "Nude" is a little misleading. But for MY lip color, this almost matches. I LOVE this liner, and it is on it's way to becoming a HG for me. It applies easily, lasts and lasts and lasts, and matches most lip colors. It's also a great color on it's own, with some gloss on top. I like the brush, which can be used to tone down the color or to blend with lipstick or gloss added.

I don't usually use l/l unless I'm wearing dark or bold l/s, and I don't like to match them together, because when the l/s fades you're left with a dark outline. My lips are well defined and medium-pigmented, so I don't use dark or bold l/s often, but when I do this l/l helps all other lip colour stay in place. It's slightly warmer and browner than my lips (which are medium-mauvey toned), but I find it's very smooth and blends nicely with all lip colours (l/s or gloss). The packaging is chic (typically Chanel), with a brush on the other end to blend and soften the line, and a sharpener too. It's therefore not that expensive for what you get and as I don't use it often, it has lasted a long time. I will repurchase this.

I only own one lipliner-- yes, one-- and this is it. It goes with every lip color I own, looks lovely by itself with a little clear gloss over it, and has a lip brush on the other end that I seem to use almost daily. Since it is so useful, I can overlook the steep pricetag (and, I don't need to replace it that often, so that is an additional plus). As long as Chanel makes it, I will continue to purchase this!

I have gone through maybe 5 of these liners. It is a good quality liner with lots of pigment. The color goes with literally everything. I wear many shades of pinks and this works with all of them. Based on what I saw in the department stores yesterday I might be wearing some nudes this next season, and it goes with nudes. I started using this during the last wave of nude as a big trend. It is worth the money because it really stays on your lips.

Love this liner! I am not a liner girl, but was pursuaded to try this liner. My lips are very pigments and most liners don't show up or are too dark-more spicey on me. This liner is great, soft, and long lasting. My only "beef" is with the price $27 USD.

This is one of my HG lip liners. I agree with other reviewers that this color is darker than one would expect from the label "Nude," but I find that it is a great neutral lipliner. I am not able to wear dark colored lipsticks, and this looks perfectly natural on my lips, and is great under my warm-toned lipsticks--especially my MAC Midimauve and Sharp Beige. It goes on smoothly and wears well.

I have been using this colour for ten years now. I never would have picked it myself, but the SA put it on me with a matching lipstick and it has been a staple in my collection ever since. The colour lends itself to wearing with browns or pinks and the texture is nice and soft without clumping all over the place. I have bought this exact lipliner four times now, and when I use this one up, I will buy it again.

OMG, this is seriously the worst product I have tried in ages. WTH is with all the good reviews? Hard, scary texture that hurt my lips going on, and the rough bristly brush included to blend doesn't help one bit. Also extremely dark, scary color, and very drying. Fellow PPPs, I beg you to pass this up, it will NOT look "nude" on you! It is dark brown! I don't understand the good reviews for this one little bit. Usually I can at least see the merits of a product for others even if I don't like it for myself, but this lip liner is just horrible. Thank goodness I got it as part of the Hydrabase set of mini lipsticks and wasn't actually suckered into paying full price for it.

Longitudinal evaluation of sleep-disordered breathing and sleep symptoms with change in quality of life: The Sleep Heart Health Study (SHHS)
ABSTRACT Findings from population studies evaluating the progression and incidence of sleep disordered breathing have shown evidence of a longitudinal increase in the severity of sleep disordered breathing. The present study evaluates the association among changes in sleep disordered breathing, sleep symptoms, and quality of life over time.
Prospective cohort study. Data were from the Sleep Heart Health Study.
Multicenter study.
Three thousand seventy-eight subjects aged 40 years and older from the baseline and follow-up examination cycles were included.
The primary outcomes were changes in the Physical Component Summary and Mental Component Summary scales obtained from the Medical Outcomes Study Short-Form Health Survey. The primary exposure was change in the respiratory disturbance index obtained from unattended overnight polysomnograms performed approximately 5 years apart. Other covariates included measures of excessive daytime sleepiness and difficulty initiating and maintaining sleep.
Mean respiratory disturbance index increased from 8.1 +/- 11 SD at baseline to 10.9 +/- 14 (P < 0.0001) at follow-up. The mean Physical Component Summary and Mental Component Summary scores were 48.5 and 54.1 at baseline and 46.3 and 54.8 at follow-up. No associations between change in respiratory disturbance index and changes in Physical Component Summary or Mental Component Summary scores were seen. However, worsening of difficulty initiating and maintaining sleep and excessive daytime sleepiness were significantly associated with lower quality of life.
A slight increase in severity of sleep disordered breathing was seen over 5 years; this was not associated with worsening of quality of life. However, subjective symptoms of quality of sleep and daytime sleepiness were associated with declining quality of life.

- "In addition to the theoretical reasons for our choice of outcomes, there are also good practical reasons for focusing on these outcomes. First, stress outcomes, including emotional exhaustion, work-to-family conflict, and insomnia, have been linked to employee well-being and quality of life (Fritz, Yankelevich, Zarubin, & Barger, 2010; Kossek & Ozeki, 1998; Silva et al., 2010). Given that employees spend more time outside of work than they do working (Barnes, Wagner, & Ghumman, 2012), general health and well-being is a meaningful consideration for managers and scholars. "
ABSTRACT: To date, the majority of research on emotional labor has focused on outcomes that occur in the workplace. However, research has yet to consider the possibility that the daily effects of emotional labor spill over to life outside of work, even though a large body of literature examining the spillover from work life to home life indicates that work experiences influence employees after they leave the workplace. Accordingly, we examined the influence of day-to-day surface acting on 3 types of theoretically derived stress outcomes experienced at home: emotional exhaustion, work-to-family conflict, and insomnia. In an experience sampling field study of 78 bus drivers, we found that daily surface acting was connected to increases in each of the outcomes noted above. Moreover, surface acting had an indirect effect on emotional exhaustion and insomnia via state anxiety.Personnel Psychology 07/2013; 67(2). DOI:10.1111/peps.12044 · 2.93 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: To compare health-related quality of life (HR-QOL) across subgroups defined by sleep disturbances and ethnicity. Men (47%) and women (53%) Sleep Heart Health Study participants age 40 and older (N = 5237) underwent overnight polysomnography and completed self-report questionnaires on symptoms of sleep disturbances. The physical and mental composite scales (PCS and MCS) of the Medical Outcomes Study 36-item short form survey assessed HR-QOL and were compared to sleep data. Participants self-identified as Caucasian/White (n = 4482, 86%), African American/Black (n = 490, 9%), or Hispanic/Mexican American (n = 265, 5%). The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) was 17%, frequent snoring was 34%, difficulty initiating or maintaining sleep (DIMS; insomnia symptoms) was 30%, and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) was 25%. African American participants with frequent snoring, insomnia symptoms, or EDS had significantly poorer physical health compared to Caucasians (p < 0.001). Hispanics with frequent snoring, insomnia symptoms, or EDS had significantly poorer mental health than Caucasian participants (p <0.001). Neither PCS nor MCS scores differed significantly across ethnic subgroups for participants with moderate to severe OSA (respiratory disturbance index > 15, 4% desaturation). Across ethnic/racial subgroups, sleep disturbances are associated with worse physical and better mental HR-QOL than the U.S. norm, but this relationship may be moderated by comorbid health conditions. This study replicates and extends prior research indicating differences among minority and non-minority participants and highlights the need for future studies of sleep disturbances with larger samples of minorities that control for comorbid health conditions.Journal of clinical sleep medicine: JCSM: official publication of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine 04/2010; 6(2):176-83. · 3.05 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: Objectives/ Hypothesis:In general, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) seems to be a progressive disorder whose pathogenesis is not fully understood. One hypothesis is that long-standing snoring vibrations cause a local neuropathy in the upper airway, which predisposes to obstructive events during sleep. The aim of this study was to investigate sensory function in the upper airway in a cohort of subjects comprising nonsnorers, snorers, and untreated subjects with OSA, and to correlate data to apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) and duration of snoring.Study Design:Cross-sectional cohort study.Methods:Subjects were recruited from primary care hypertension clinics. Whole-night respiratory recordings were performed to determine presence and degree of OSA. Three groups were formed based on AHI and snoring history: 1) nonsnorers (n = 25); 2) snorers, AHI < 10 (n = 32); 3) OSA subjects, AHI ≥ 10 (n = 33). Quantitative cold sensory testing of the soft palate and lip was used to assess neuropathy.Results:There were no significant differences concerning lip sensory function between groups. Nonsnorers showed significantly lower thresholds for cold (i.e., better sensitivity) in the soft palate compared to both other groups (P < .01). Snorers had lower thresholds than OSA subjects (P < .05). There were significant correlations (P < .01) between decreased sensory function and AHI (rs = .41) and to duration of snoring (rs = .47).Conclusions:The degree of sensory neuropathy in the upper airway correlates with degree of obstructive sleep disorder. Our results strengthen the hypothesis that snoring vibrations may cause a neuropathy in the upper airway, which contributes to the progression and development of OSA.

Los Angeles Kings
Leave it to L.A. to set the standard when it comes to these bombshells with shovels.
Atlanta Thrashers
Known as the Blue Crew, the Thrashers' Ice Girls aren't just catching the attention of the fans.
New York Islanders
The Islanders not only have four Stanley Cups but also one of the hottest Ice Girl crews in the NHL.
Calgary Flames
When you live in Calgary, you'd better know how to wield a shovel. The Fire And Ice Crew are pros when it comes to scooping the white stuff.
Dallas Stars
The Cowboys have their famed cheerleaders, so it's only fair the Stars should showcase some lookers as well. Check out YouTube for a collection of fantastic videos including, "Ice Girls on the lake" – an instant classic.
Chicago Blackhawks
Some will credit Chicago's Stanley Cup win to fitness and a talented, young lineup. And others will say the players had something to do with it. My money is on the Ice Girls.
Phoenix Coyotes
The only thing that makes sense about having a hockey team in the middle of the desert is the Coyotes' cheerleading squad. Try to find girls like these in Winnipeg…
Philadelphia Flyers
Thank God the Flyers Ice Team doesn't have to sport those awful Cooperalls like Philadelphia wore back in the early 80's.
NBA Futures Odds - And Cheerleaders - At The All-Star Break
The NBA is on hiatus for its annual All-Star showcase in Brooklyn. Making it the perfect time to look at NBA futures, ATS and Over/Under stats, as well as each team's lovely cheerleaders.
Hottest Katy Perry Super Bowl XLIX Halftime Show Props
Katy Perry is the halftime entertainment at Super Bowl XLIX in Arizona. The pop princess has given oddsmakers plenty of prop fodder, resulting in some unique alternative wagers to keep you betting when the Seahawks and Patriots take a break.

FHM just named actress Jennifer Lawrence the "Sexiest Woman in the World" for 2014 and already the good folks at PaddyPower.com have odds out on 2015's SWIW field. We look at the odds on which beauty will beat them all next year.
Can bettors blame their losing wagers on these red-hot WAGs?
Green Bay Packers fans are blaming Aaron Rodgers' gal pal Olivia Munn for the Cheeseheads' slow start to the season. Here's a look at some other wives and girlfriends that may have busted your bets in recent years.

October 2015
Great tour and great guide, the sites were perfect
October 2015
IThe boat tour was FANTASTIC !!! The guide was great, and the history was amazing. A must
see while in Venice for sure.
October 2015
I was worried at first that this was going to be a big tour and wouldn't be able to see anything on the boat. But we were divided in groups of 10. Half of the group stayed in the front and other half stayed in the back of the boat. Our tour guide, Christina, was great and very informative. It was great to see Venice from the water. Definitely recommend!
October 2015
Fantastic. Of course the scenery was great, but what made it special was the knowledge and cheerfulness of our guide Christina.
September 2015
Our guide was engaging and knowledgeable. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and the city of Venice. One of the best experiences. Highly recommend this tour.
September 2015
A wonderful way to see Venice. We opted not to take a costly short gondola ride. We throughly enjoyed tthia time seeing the sights and sounds of the canals. Standing in the back of this water taxi tour boat gave us a birds eye view of the canals with our very knowledgeable tour guide . Highly recommend this tour.
September 2015
Very well done and great tour guide full of interesting information! I would definitely recommend this to a friend was so lovely seeing the island from a different perspective as I was keen to do a gondola ride haha.

Great overview of venice and being able to see the sights from the water!! Excellent tour!!
September 2015
Perfect! Our tour guide Christina was very friendly, and informative about the various sites in Venice, along with fun behind the scenes facts. And best of all, NO WALKING! Your get to enjoy Venice with all its charm from a relaxing seat in a boat. This is by far better than the walking tours, and the gondolas!
September 2015
Great Tour. Very well worth going. Small group of people. Very informative guide. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Movie Meltdown - Episode 322
This week we sit down and talk with the one and only...Yaphet Kotto. He has a fascinating place in history and a interesting role in the heyday of the New York acting scene, celebrity culture and the ever-changing Hollywood industry. Not to mention the overwhelming number of projects he's worked on over the years - it's quite a resume. So with all that to draw from, we attempt to get at least a brief synopsis of... The Strange and Amazing Life of Yaphet Kotto.

Movie Meltdown - Episode 321
This week we hit the road for a couple of different conventions including our coverage of ScareFest. So join us as we discuss how to fully coordinate your cosplay outfit, random quoting of The Young Ones, recapping of our fun purchases and we may just break into our impromptu performance of The Life and Times of Cobra Commander Jr. Plus we check in with Kelley from Night of the Living Podcast to see what he's been up to lately.
And as we address the evil conviction of sticking your finger in your eyeball, we also talk about... wearing a hoodie, Turbo Kid, Assassin's Creed, Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation, jumping fast zombies disco listening, 100% stereotypes, slutty and adorable, Doug Marcaida, Crimson Peak, Mewes Juice, footwear and eye-wear, Burt Reynolds... and a dog, Two Broke Girls, it's easier to stab people then it is to make knives, Scream Queens, Steve Jobs, The Jersey Devil, Big Bang Theory, scrawny white guys, Wormwood, do ants go to discos?, green alien butt, old crusty batteries, Strike Back, Tom Hiddleston, leather short shorts and a tube top, I'm never really sick of talking, how to crash a motorcycle going 120, teen gossip magazines from the 70's and 80's, squished pennies in bulk, artsy Michael Fassbender, not looking like cosplay characters, Doctor Badass, P. T. Barnum, electronic owl, Kat Dennings and Krampus.
Spoiler Alert: Very minor spoilers for the Scream TV series... ehhh, you'll be fine hearing them.
Producer's Note: In answer to our wondering on this episode... Fire Sale was a 1977 film, and I suspected it was put out by 20th Century Fox - which it was... so I'm assuming the person in the photo got the shirt free from the studio.

We discuss not only Maddie's early interest in music but also how it crossed over into her love of movies. Plus she discusses some of her favorite soundtracks as she gives us her Killer Five.

Attack of the Killer Soundtrack - Episode 29
This week we are coming to you from VinylFest where on this the 50th anniversary of the hugely successful album Whipped Cream & Other Delights, we sit down and talk with Dolores Erickson. Delores is the woman featured on the cover of the album that eventually became a pop culture phenomena - as well as being one of the most recognizable (and often parodied) photographs in the world. And along the way, we also celebrate the amazing career of Herb Alpert as we build a soundtrack from his abundance of songs featured in movies over the years. Plus this week's co-host Yoko also works in some of her favorite soundtrack picks as well.
And as we try to figure out if it's legal in this state to make love to the camera, we also discuss... Eileen Ford, a class at Warner Brothers, cats sitting on your turntable, being introduced to Elvis Presley, lectures on swearing, I was just standing in my brassiere, choosing one girl from every high school, Stella Stevens, I won a contest, the art director for Capitol Records, brighten up your day with this band, a Bull Terrier, sometimes you've gotta squint on a roller coaster, I love his little quiff and his big chin, a lovable curmudgeon, Jerry Moss, predestined, a little bit of a heartbreak, skiing down a mountain, men like cats sometimes, The Everly Brothers, try not to fall in love when you hear this song, constructing the cotton, Steve Katz, being an art teacher, it seemed like in L.A., everyone had their businesses in their garages... they always made-over their garages... including Herb, I definitely learned rejection, It was just a lovely afternoon, a catamaran in a storm, very avant-garde records, being groomed, quit picking on Bill, he's such a sentimental person and for years... no one knew my name.
"It's unusual. It's like a little ghost... that follows me around. It's extraordinary really."
