"Outstanding vacation location on Georgetown Island, Maine"
For the past three years, we have vacationed at White Rocks Cottage on Georgetown Island, Maine (not far from Bath) and we highly recommend it. Whether you have children or not, there are plenty of activities in the area for everyone (hiking, boating, fishing, swimming, strolling beaches, shopping & eating in or out) or, you can do nothing but relax and watch the world go by in the comfort of this lovely, private, clean and well furnished home on the Maine Coast. You will certainly not be disappointed in fact, a stay at White Rocks cottage will be a memory you will treasure forever!
"White Rocks Cottage offers a lovely, relaxing place to enjoy the"
We've vacationed at White Rocks Cottage for several years now, usually spending our anniversary there. It's private, peaceful and quiet, and offers a welcome respite from the cares of everyday life. Reid State Park is also nearby, with a lovely beach. We especially enjoy watching the sunsets across the water, and the seals and various birds, just a few feet from the screened in porch. There are numerous restaurants and other things to see or do within easy drive. We certainly had our share of Maine seafood! In nearby Bath, try the Kennebec Tavern and Maxwell's. In Wiscasset, we suggest Sarah's on Route 1. The food is great, usually with no waiting, and we think it's nicer than standing in line at Red's across the street! Shaw's Lobster, in New Harbor (near Pemaquid), up Route 1 North, is also a great place to enjoy lobsters, clams and other seafood. Again, the cottage is a wonderfully peaceful place, and we think it would be a great honeymoon spot!

As I have foretold for years, dynamic pricing is not just coming but has arrived in the live entertainment biz. It's most widely adopted in sports, but has made inroads in the arts and concerts as well.
Every now and then, I find it useful to stop and give people a little reminder about dynamic pricing, and in particular, remind them of the difference between dynamic and variable pricing. The best way may be to watch this short video I did a couple years ago, but if you don't even have time for that, here's the super express version of it:
Dynamic prices are those that CHANGE over time; variable prices are prices that are different from the start. For example, a Tuesday night field level seat is in less demand than a Saturday night seat in the same place (all other things being equal), and the organization should start out with a different price for those seats. That's variable pricing. If the ticket was originally listed as $100, but demand has been strong, it may now be on sale for $120. Or $80. That's the dynamic part. "Dynamic" means changing or changeable.
Got it?
And let me add that without a good variable pricing policy, dynamic pricing is premature. You need to understand the core demand differences for nights, sections, etc., and do variable pricing correctly and then lay dynamic pricing on top of THAT, not the other way around. In fact, variable pricing, as a rule, has more potential uplift on sales than dynamic pricing, but together, it's optimal.
Finally, if you'd like some help with your dynamic pricing, I know people who can help you. Smart ones. Ping me and I'll connect you.
BUT, I have something to add to this discussion. There are a couple of ways different flavors of dynamic pricing, and really, it comes down to what part of the purchase is dynamic. (Remember, 'dynamic' means 'changing'.)
Is the PRICE dynamic or is the LOCATION dynamic?
Here's what happens when the price is dynamic: a customer is interested in Section 204 (or whatever) and thinks about buying two tickets. The price listed is $100 each. The customer gets distracted by a co-worker and doesn't end up buying. A few days later, demand has been strong for that game and section, and the customer goes back to buy those tickets, but now Section 204 tickets cost $115 each. The customer buys those tickets and arrives at the venue, where they are seated in Section 204, as expected.
Here's what happens when the location is dynamic: a customer is interested in going to see an event and notices that several prices are available: P1, P2, P3, etc., but it's hard to tell (or not even shown) where the seats corresponding to those prices are. P3 tickets are $100 which is about what they'd like to spend, so they buy the tickets. Sales are strong for the event, and so P3 has grown from just the mezzanine to include the front balcony also. The person who bought the P3 tickets is seated in the front balcony, even though typically P3 would not include the front balcony (which are thought of as "worse" seats than the mezzanine.)
Of these two types of dynamic pricing, to me it is very clearly superior to make the price be dynamic.
Here's why:
First, making the location be dynamic makes it impossible for the consumer to be exactly what they want. Since they don't know what a price level entails, they can't make a rational decision about how much they want to pay (unless they're shown their seats on a seating map before purchase, in which case this is really just dynamic pricing without the mathematical discipline).
Second, it's done primarily for the convenience of the venue, not the benefit of the customer. It's easier to "downgrade" a buyer who's got a semi-opaque view into their purchases than it is to price the house correctly, given demand.
Third, the venue is taking a huge risk that people will not get what they expect and therefore become disappointed with their purchase, especially if they've bought from the venue before and have expectations about what a given price level "is".
So if you're going to make the location be dynamic, well, don't do it, but if you must, you have to present it to the buyer not as a "price level" but as a given seat at a given price that they clearly know at the time of purchase. Which essentially is like making the price dynamic, without (typically) doing the work to make the price actually dynamic.
Bottom line: it's perfectly fine to change prices on people, and they will accept it, but do everything you can to make it clear what they're getting.

One thing that really struck me about the new JHMS trailer released today was how delightfully familiar SRK looked in that leather jacket. I could do a whole other post on the psychological meaning of leather jackets (Western, motorcycles, slightly forbidden, impractical (SO HOT IN INDIA), helps hide narrow shoulder and expanding waist issues), but we don't need that, we just know that men in leather jackets=bad boy sexy.

TGIF: Jagga Jasoos Themed! Men in Sweater Vests
Now, if I am following this correctly, the thinking goes "men wear sweater vests in mountains-many children's boarding schools are in mountains because it is supposed to be healthier-young men in sweater vests makes us think they are teenagers". But the way in which these sweater vests come across can vary greatly image to image.
TGIF: Let's Not Overthink this-SUNGLASSES!
Happy Friday! It was pouring rain this morning, and now it is blazing sunshine. Which is making me think, "Sunglasses!" It's not the most original photo series idea, but it is always good. Because sunglasses obscure your eyes, which make you look more otherworldly and better than us mortals. Also, easier to see you as just manmeat, and not a person!
TGIF: In Honor of the 4th of July, I Declare Independence….From Clothes! (NSFW)
I was going to do something slightly more highbrow. Indian movie stars with the American flag or something. But then I thought "No! Why overthink it?" And so our theme for this week is a Declaration of Independence….from clothing!
TGIF: Happy Pride Weekend! Let Us Look at the Gayest Images in Indian Film
Oh Pride! The happiest weekend of the year in terms of fanfic/silly content. The saddest weekend of the year in terms of not having loud drunk people sit next to me on the train. At least this year I have no reason to leave the house (my church lemonade stand/marching group can get along without me!), so I can just huddle up indoors and work on my epic Pride themed fanfic. I'm going to try to hit all the letters, L and G and B and T and Q and maybe H. If Indian film isn't going to serve that audience, it is up to me to fill in the gap! Anyway, a great TGIF post topic, I think we can all agree.
TGIF Post: In Bed!
You know that joke, right? You read a fortune cookie, or something else similarly general and metaphorical and then add "in bed!" to the end to make it sexual. In this case, I am putting all my regular TGIF suspects in bed. Because I just purchased and built my first bed since I left my parents' house (finally graduating from futons!), and I am very interested in beds right now.
TGIF: A Game of Five
Happy Friday! I am having friends over tonight for the inaugural New Apartment Movie Night. I'm excited! The place is still a disaster, but they are good friends, so it should be fine. And to entertain them, I came up with a game! which I am now sharing with you.
TGIF: Bahubali Cast Looking All Strange in Modern Clothes! (plus, Friendly Appearance from SRK!)
It's always odd when you see period actors in modern clothing, right? Like, Colin Firth (The One True Darcy) never looks quite right to me in jeans. But, on the other hand, the Bahubali cast in modern clothes does make me think "oh good, it's just a movie! I don't have to be so sad/scared/angry about it." And I thought it might cheer us all up to share that experience this Friday. Feel free to put your favorite "happy happy!" photos of these actors in the comments, if I missed any.
TGIF: What Is More Important Than the Bond Between a Boy and His Mother?
Mothers and sons, that's appealing, right? Depending on which side of it you are. If you are the daughter-in-law, it may incite crazed flashbacks of "JUST TELL HER WE AREN'T COMING FOR THANKSGIVING!!! STAND UP FOR ME FOR ONCE!!!" But if you are on the mothers' side, or if you have no dog in this fight as yet (like me), it is very appealing.
TGIF: Men in White (Thank You Sushant Singh!)
Moviemavengal tweeted an amazing thing to me a couple of days ago, which has inspired this entire post. Think of it as the large precious jewel in the middle of tiny twinkling diamonds.
TGIF Post: Has to be Vinod Khanna. And a Little Varun
This was going to be an all Varun week, in honor of his birthday (birthday post here). But Vinod has knocked him right off the public consciousness. Sorry Varun! Maybe next year.
TGIF: For Easter, Have Some Hot Indian Jesus Pictures!
Happy Good Friday! I am celebrating by seeing Arjit Singh live tonight (WOOT!!!!). But I don't want to totally ignore the massive religious celebration going on all over the world. So, in honor of Jesus, let's look at some hot men. Who kind of look like Jesus (as presented in American pop culture).
TGIF: Men and Women Emoting With Swords!!!!
I went from "women fighting" to "women with phallic symbols" to "women with swords" to "well, that's not fair, I'll throw in some men too!" And now here we are.
TGIF: For the End of Flu Season, a Vitamin C Filled Post!
I don't know what was up this winter, but everyone I know got sick! I got sick twice, and like really really sick, not just "a little tickle in the throat" sick. And among my friends I heard everything from bronchitis to walking pneumonia. But it is supposed to be over now! Right? Because it is officially Spring? And to celebrate, lets have one last orgy of Vitamin C!
TGIF: For International Women's Day, Let's See Some Women Being Worshiped!
Happy Friday! This was a fun one to put together. My first thought for International Women's Day was a "look at these pretty women!" post, but I already did that. So, I'm going to go a little deeper. International Women's Day is supposed to be about men respecting women. Doesn't always work, of course, but that's the idea. And so I want to put up some pictures of men being happily dominated by women
TGIF Post: Old is Gold or New is True?
Okay, you ready for deep deep thoughts and discussion? This came up in my Bhootnath post earlier today, is it better to have an unattractive version of an old favorite, or a perfect shining new version of a newcomer? And, to make this even more challenging, what if they are in the same family? Ready to put on your thinking caps and make some votes? (just post a comment if you want with all your choices for 1 through 7)
TGIF Post: Men (and women) in Scarves!
Welcome to Friday! A very silly post this week, to balance the romantic post last week. But I am also going to try for gender parity, so that should be an interesting challenge.
TGIF: Romantic Valentine's Week Post! Best Couples
Happy Friday! Another week accomplished. And it was Valentine's Week! So I thought my TGIF post should be a little bit romantic this week. Which for me means photos of couples in love.
TGIF: Happy Birthday Again, Abhi Baby!
Abhishek isn't exactly like Hrithik or Salman in terms of TGIF-iness. But I know there is a certain segment of the population which appreciates him. And that part of that segment is in the comments section here. So I thought I might as well give him his very own post for his birthday week.
TGIF: Kingly Men
Happy Friday! Last week I did traditional clothes, and did you notice I skipped Jodha-Akbar? That was on purpose! I had this in mind already, our kingly men.
TGIF: Nothing Hotter Than a Traditional Man!
Well, that headline is just not true. Clearly a three piece suit wearing man is the hottest possible option. But, for this week, I am going to follow a suggestion from Miss Braganza and do a post of men in traditional outfits.

THE INSIDER: Spurs could revive interest in Castaignos and Everton priced out of Mandzukic move
Simon Jones is Sportsmail's man on the inside of all the major transfer moves this summer.
His column, published every weekday, offers an insight into the deals which will be done and those that won't - and why.
A 5/5-rating means The Insider reckons it's a done deal; 0/5 means The Insider has his mortgage on it not happening.
Don't miss your daily Insider instalment here.
Inter Milan to Tottenham
THE INSIDER says: 2/5
Kuban Krasnodar to Liverpool
THE INSIDER says: 2/5
The 19-year-old has failed to break through at Inter Milan despite having good potential.
Liverpool showed interest in him last season but ultimately decided he was not ready for the first team.
Castaignos, a Dutch U21 international, has confirmed he will be leaving Inter and has targeted a move to a 'big club'.
Inter offered to loan him elsewhere in Italy but he has stated he wants to pay elsewhere.
West Ham have held discussions over a possible loan and that may yet materialise but Tottenham have also shown interest in the past as have Newcastle and Everton.
There are options for him to return to Holland but the Premier league seems his most likely destination.
Manager Brendan Rodgers is aware of Traore from his time at Swansea and had considered making a £6million offer for this summer.
Manchester United, Fulham, Arsenal, QPR and Chelsea have all watched him also. He is difficult to miss at 6ft 8ins tall but his main obstacle is earning a work permit.
The 22-year-old is seen as the man to replace Didier Drogba in the Ivory Coast national side but because of Drogba's status he has not been capped yet.
He shot to prominence with Cluj in Romania and Anzhi Makhachkala want him now.
Liverpool want another striker and have also considered young Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata, 19, but as one for the future.
Wolfsburg to Everton
THE INSIDER says: 1/5
Hull City to Reading
THE INSIDER says: 3/5
Unless Everton rob a bank they have little chance of signing Mandzukic right now with Wolfsburg valuing him at around £10m.
David Moyes has watched him in action alongside Everton striker Nikica Jelavic and Everton's scouts have watched him playing for Wolfsburg but the club's distinct lack of cash makes a deal improbable at this stage of the window.
Everton's priority remains to raise funds to bring in Steven Pienaar on a permanent deal and then they will see what else they can bring in on the usual shoestring budget unless Marouane Fellaini, Leighton Baines or Phil Jagielka leave for big money.
Moyes wants a striker to help Jelavic but may have to explore the loan market to get what he wants.
The 31-year-old Slovenia captain is available to English clubs at a cut-price fee due to a clause in his contract that allows him to go for a fee understood to be around £500,000.
Leicester City manager Nigel Pearson knows Koren well and is keen to re-sign him to help get Leicester into the top flight this season.
Reading like Koren also but have other priorities with a defensive midfielder and the likes of Danny Guthrie ahead of him in their thinking.
Hull manager Steve Bruce is keen to strengthen his squad and will need to generate funds to find the quality of player he wants.
Hull like Emile Heskey and former Sunderland goalkeeper Craig Gordon and funds from the sale of Koren will be useful.

Earlier this week, we posted an Action Cast about the 1989 Hulk Hogan movie No Holds Barred. The film is terrible, but kinda fun for anyone that grew up a Hulkamaniac. If you want all the gristly details, you should go listen to the podcast. This article is supplemental material, an homage to Hogan's acting chops. While watching the movie, I was struck by how… unique a lot of the Hulkster's facial expressions were and took a bunch of screen captures. A lesser man would post snarky comments with each photo, but I think I'll step aside and let Hogan's face do the talking.
The Hulkster's interested, I can tell by the look on his face.

Discussion in 'Classic Menswear' started by BackInTheJox, Sep 8, 2012.
Its a good thing you have almost a year to save up
Meermin has a plain wholecut wholecut which should be cheaper than the AEs.
Strongly suggest finding silk laces tho.
FTR the amount of bulling (and back stripping unless you want that much wax there all the time) needed to subsitute for patent shouldn't be under estimated.
Ha I was actually just looking at those online.
Any idea what shipping ends up being? I live in the US, FYI.
Edit: nevermind, just found it on their site. Looks a bit pricey unfortunately.
35 euros. Remember to take off vat tho. Should be ~200 (USD) landed.
Eta on the op.
I find flat front trousers worn on the waist sit oddly.
The vents shouldn't open and hence your but shouldn't matter.
I's suggest against pushing anyone making your garmets into doing anything that they don't normally do especially if you may have communication problems re: formal vests.
Hmm, I actually was unaware of VAT and had to look up what it is. Is it really that significant of a deduction? If I'm not mistaken, 160 euros should be around $205 USD. Is the price of the shipping really counterbalanced by the VAT? $200 USD would be amazing . . . and I like the shape of the shoe more than AE's Vernons (and I like the plain wholecut look better).
I'm unsure what you mean about trousers "worn on the waist" . . . as opposed to what? Sitting lower? Just want to make sure I understand what you're saying.
And what do you mean the vents shouldn't open? All of my lounge suits have a double vent back (two vents on either side creating the back "flap") . . . this helps to sort of give way and accommodate my backside whereas a nonvented jacket wouldn't have the same "give", no? Maybe I'm confused.
Agreed about avoiding custom vest requests. I really do think that the cummerbund will be perfectly fine for me, and I'm going to be keeping my jacket on as much as possible anyway, I think.
Thank you for the input!
Vat is the 20% Europe sales tax so yes.
Re; Braces, a natural waist is the position of minimum circumfrence between the hips and the chest. This generally looks very high.*
It will give in a freedom of movement sense, however in normal (standing) positions the vent shouldn't open (move from its non stressed position). That is both side of the vent should stay perfectly vertical and not move apart.
*This can be thrown off in the case of a very large gut.
OP, you mention you are on a strict budget for the wedding outfit and also say you are considering getting a BB vest. A significantly less expensive alternative is the low-cut, three-button vest with lapels available for $39.95 from www.finetuxedos.com. It is backless, but I think you indicate you plan to keep your jacket on for most of the time period. This option may be worth checking out.
Also, you ask about pleat width for your shirt. One-fourth or one-half inch is the norm, probably with one-half inch looking less "rental."
All the best!
Gotcha, thanks. Would it make more (or less?) sense to forego the braces and just do side tabs? Or is that a huge no-no.
Firstly I'd note on my comment on pleats & waist height is somewhat personal fit related. You may like it with flat front and/or lower both of which plenty of well dressed of people do.
You can also wear braces lower than the natural waist. Side tabs (or nothing for that matter) on their own are also fine, if not traditional.
Thanks! I hadn't done a thorough search yet on vests, but that looks like a much better price than BB . . . if I do decide to go with a vest over a cummerbund, I will seriously consider that one.
Also thank you for the input on the shirt pleats. I was thinking that pleats in the 1/4 to 1/2" would perhaps be ideal. I'm leaning towards 1/2" at this point.
Yeah, I tend to prefer the look of flat front pants in general, although with my - ahem - muscular backside, sometimes pleated pants are more accommodating. That said, pretty much all of my pants are flat front, and although it can be difficult to find the perfect pair of pants that fit me properly without either looking hugely baggy through the seat/thighs or - on the other end of the spectrum - causing immense pocket flair, when I get the fit right I really like the look with the flat front.
Part of my decision whether or not to wear braces may hinge on how the pants end up . . . while I have my measurements down pretty well as far as I am able to tell, if the pants end up fitting very very well but with a high rise, I may be more inclined to go with braces. If the pants end up sitting lower than that, forgoing the braces may be in order (or else they would probably be for "decorative" purposes only and have to be loosened a bit so that they're not pulling the pants up into my crotch . . . but at that point, I think they'd look funny if not tightened and serving their purpose).
For a shirt, you may want to consider a marcella front instead. Here is a link to one:
There is a wing collar version as well.
A cummerbund would be more appropriate thing to wear thatn the vest.
Why? Each is acceptable and appropriate. To make a case for the vest, I think that a vest conpliments the peak lapels better
You would want to compensate for the braces in your measurements when having it made. Just to give you an idea, I had belt loops added and suspender buttons added to a dinner suit made when I didn't know any better. In total, I ended up having to have the pant legs let out about 2.5". The crotch obviously couldn't be let out; the pants are a bit tighter than I'd like there now, but I can still sit comfortably. However, I think everything would probably drape better if I had it cut the right way to start with.
The plus side is that the waistcoat now covers my (higher) waist.
Separate names with a comma.

A Micro House of One's Ownby Helen Mitsios
Mimi Zeiger
Micro Green: Tiny Houses in Nature
(Rizzoli, 2011)
The experience of thumbing through Micro Green took me straight back to a recent summer vacation in Copenhagen. Like other tourists, I visited Christiania, the infamous hashed-out hippie haven in Copenhagen that's dotted with green, micro, organic, sustainable, reclaimed dwellings on its 85 acres in the heart of the city. Some of the far-out dwellings in the Danish community look remarkably like those in Mimi Zeiger's 7 by 7 inch little book. With its dreamy turquoise-colored book jacket, Micro Green is a collection of 36 sustainable homes—a gathering of "dream pods" in natural surroundings from around the world—a perfect read for day tripping and escapism.
In Zeiger's book, the 36 houses are arranged according to size like nesting Matryoshka dolls, from teeny to biggish. The first home is called the "Mobile Eco Second Home." Located in the UK, it is a 43 square foot garden-shed-on-wheels, sans electricity or plumbing, harking back to the size of my first NYC studio apartment. Largest in the book is the sumptuous 1722 square foot "Villa Vals" in Switzerland. Villa Vals looks as if an architect took a giant ice-cream scooper to the ground and carved out a partially subterranean Hobbit house, complete with a ninja-like underground 72-foot concrete entry tunnel. I'd move there tomorrow, in part, because I'm a sucker for energy efficient radiant floor heating (as was Frank Lloyd Wright, who describes discovering this marvelous comfort, savored by the ancient Romans, during a 1914 dinner visit to the house of Baron Okura in Tokyo. See Wright's extraordinary 1954 book on organic homes, The Natural House).
The other 34 micro homes cover the full spectrum of what "green" can mean. Take for example, the 133 square foot "02 Sustainability Treehouse," with its Buckminster Fuller-inspired geodesic dome, or "Flake House," a 237 square foot home with unmilled logs piled up in shed fashion and held together visually by one large plate glass window that forms a wall. Zeigler's use of the adjective "green" also encompasses an off-grid house that's handmade with local materials, (the 250 square foot "Backwoods Skyscaper" in Vermont) but it also includes a home that qualifies as "green" primarily because the roof allows for installation of solar panels in the future. Hhmn. Don't know about that one.
The homes in Micro Green are a love letter to simpler homes, times and lifestyles. They're a backlash to the recombinant 21st century, so our outdated Pleistocene brains will have a chance to catch up with the prevailing conditions of the modern world. Many of the structures featured in Micro Green don't allow for the conveniences of the modern home—no heating or plumbing—and bring to mind Situationist Ivan Chtchegliv's remark made in 1953 that "A mental disease has swept the planet: banalization. Everyone is hypnotized by production and conveniences—sewage system, elevator, bathroom, washing machine." Not so in many of Micro Green's homes. Take "Boomhut," for example, a 56 square foot home in the Netherlands with a staircase leading to a tiny pod that holds a mattress suspended in the open-air structure stretched between two trees.
Masahiko Shimada, one of Japan's most prominent writers and visionary thinkers, recently challenged architects to create contemporary versions of "Nirvana Mini" based on the archetypal space of the traditional Japanese tea house. Like the micro house, Nirvana Mini is intended for a garden or forest setting. Some of Japan's most famous architects like Kenga Kumo and Norihiko Dan, and New York architect Tony Winters submitted intriguing entries in the recent Nirvana Mini design competition that rendered this small archetypal structure for example in a single sheet of paper, or a rooftop mounted hidden chamber.
This collection of houses is heavy on the romantic idea of Thoreau's escape into the woods, Walden-style, and Zeiger cites Walden as "perhaps the best example of a tiny house." But this version of "green" overlooks an increasingly important aspect of sustainability: population density. In a recent issue of The Economist, John Parker wrote that cities "already account for half the world's population, a share that will rise to 70 percent by 2050."
Unless the occupants of these micro green homes are entirely self-sufficient and off-the-grid, these houses work better as personal utopias for the privileged minority than as solutions for an urban setting that are sustainable in the context of population density. There would just be too much energy spent transporting things to and from the secluded woods: like people, power, utilities, trash, and even construction materials to build with. After all, can everyone live in Walden?
The Micro Green homes resonate with another era—one in which people rejected the boredom of consumer society, opposed war, and organized protests to nuclear weapons. Add climate change, and certain aspects of 2011 are looking and sounding a whole lot like the '60s. But the visionaries of the '60s went beyond personal utopia to find some sustainable large-scale ways to go green—like the housing structure Habitat at the Montreal World Fair of 1967.
Still, personal utopia has its appeal. Micro Green's "tiny houses," with their eco-conscious designs, salvaged materials, and lush settings remind us that humans need a place to connect to nature and re-charge spiritually, maybe even make love, not war. Just pipe some Pink Floyd into my Villa Vals home, please.

Wheelchair Tennis Champion of the Year: Paul Walker
Paul Walker played recreational tennis most of his life, but when he was wounded in the military in 1994, he "was looking to find out how to be an athlete again." Then in 1997, he was invited to a three-day wheelchair tennis camp led by the legendary Randy Snow. "From that point on, I started playing, then playing tournaments, then got the competitive juices flowing and kept getting better," he says. In about four years, he threw his hat into the ring in the Open division.
Since then, he's been one of the key wheelchair figures in the U.S. And he's Tennis Industry's 2014 Wheelchair Tennis Champion of the Year.
In 2002, Walker, from Lakeland, Fla., started coaching an able-bodied high school team, and in 2005 was asked to be head coach of the USA Women's National Wheelchair Tennis Team, which he did until 2012, leading the team to two No. 4 finishes and consistently in the top five of women's programs worldwide. Now he is a national Juniors coach, and in his 12th year of high school coaching, where he's led his team to six straight district titles and was twice named Polk County High School Tennis Coach of the Year. He regularly coaches for the USTA and ITF at wheelchair tennis camps and has a passion for working with injured service men and women.
"Paul is the very definition of a dedicated wheelchair tennis advocate," says Dan James, the USTA national manager of Wheelchair Tennis. "The sport is lucky to have him carrying its torch."

I started using LED grow lights early in 2016 after reading about them on BigBudsMag.com. My previous hydroponics lighting equipment had been two 1000-watt HID bulbs with reflectors and ballasts. This equipment produced an average three pounds per harvest. My lights weren't in cooled hoods so I had an LG split air conditioner that cost […]
Get Yourself the Best Marijuana Grow Lights
High Intensity Discharge (HID) marijuana grow lights are still the primary grow light category used by serious home marijuana growers and professional growers worldwide. Cannabis cultivators use LEDs, fluorescent, CFL, light-emitting ceramic, or plasma lighting because they cut down on heat and on watts burned. But HID metal halide and high pressure sodium marijuana grow […]

March 2009 | Effects of methanol extracts of Cuscuta reflexa Roxb. stem and Corchorusolitorius Linn. seed on male reproductive system of mice…
- DK Pal1,*, M Gupta2 and UK Mazumder2
The antifertility activity of methanol extract of Cuscuta reflexa Roxb. stem (MECR) and Corchorusolitorius Linn. seed (MECO) were studied on male Swiss albino mice. The extracts were found todecrease sperm count, percentage of motile sperm and testosterone level in treated mice whencompared with vehicle control after 17 days of treatment. The weight of gonads, epididymis weredecreased whereas no significant changes of the body weight of mice were observed aftermethanol extract treatments. The fertility test showed 100% negative result in MECR and MECOtreated mice at medium and high dose level of treatment. MECR and MECO in low (25 mg/kgand 15 mg/kg, respectively), medium (50 mg/kg and 20 mg/kg, respectively) and high (75 mg/kg and 25 mg/kg, respectively) dose level caused a simultaneous fall in testicular Δ5-3β–hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activities which are involved intesticular steroidogenesis. Total cholesterol and ascorbic acid content in testis were increasedsignificantly in gonads. The activities of lactate dehydrogenase, malic dehydrogenase and ascorbic acidoxidase were reduced whereas that of carbonic anhydrase was increased significantly in the testisof MECR and MECO treated mice. All these observations indicate that the methanol extract of C.reflexa stem and C. olitorius seed produced antifertility activity in sexually matured male mice,which may be due to inhibition of gonadal steroidogenesis. This activity may be attributed due tothe presence of flavonoids and steroids, respectively.

Unitarian Universalist Church of Urbana-Champaign
309 W. Green Street
Urbana, IL 61801
(Click on "View Map" for parking information.)
Starting June 18th through August 20th, worship service will be held in our air conditioned Fellowship Hall.
Sunday, July 30 Choosing Discomfort: being bold, brave and loving in the struggle for racial justice. Led by UUCUC Racial Justice Initiative. We'll have stories, singing, music by the UU Band and CrUUners, Matthew Gladden, and Laura Robinson, and more. Broadly graded summer RE classes and childcare is available.
Sunday, August 6 Hymn Sing Coordination and led by Sam Beshers, Frank Knowles, Dana Antonelli and Beth Cobb.
Sunday, August 13 TBD Led by Ben Joselyn
Sunday, August 20 Fables, Folk Tales and Music A story-based service from the RE summer program
A typical service includes thoughtful readings, musical performances, singing together and a sermon by our minister. Our services are respectful of our Christian and Jewish heritage, but also cherish the inclusion of eastern, earth-centered and humanist traditions. Every Sunday after church, we gather for coffee and snacks in the fellowship hall.
Our minister and others in our pulpit celebrate our diversity of theology, as well as our common values and principles. You won't hear talk about creeds or doctrines. Instead you'll hear messages that provoke thought, give hope, and encourage compassion and inclusiveness. You'll hear that personal experience, conscience and reason should be the final authorities in religion, and that religious authority lies not in a book or person or institution, but in ourselves. Check out our podcasts to listen to some of our services online.
Dress however you're most comfortable.
Enter the doors in the center of the building from either the north (Green Street) or south (parking lot). Look for our greeters at the visitors table in the lobby. They'll welcome you, give you a packet of materials and provide a visitor nametag, if you want to wear one. The church sanctuary is to the west of the lobby.
Approximately 90 children and youth, preschool through high school, participate in our religious education (RE) programs during worship service. The Sunday morning RE program offers classes designed to help children develop spiritual values, ethical sensitivity and an understanding of our Judeo-Christian heritage as well as other world religions. Children sit with their parents for the first 15 minutes of the service two Sundays a month, and leave to go to their religious education (RE) classes after hearing a children's story. Occasionally, classes participate in a Children's Chapel Service. If you have more questions , please email the RE director, Cindy Wakeland.
The Sunday Morning Discussion Group meets every Sunday morning after worship service in the church library to explore a wide variety of topics.
An Orientation to UUism Class helps participants learn about Unitarian Universalism and about the church by focusing on individuals' religious journeys, UU history and beliefs and groups and activities at the church.
Chalice Circles are small groups that meet regularly for discussion, personal sharing, and service to the church or community.
Give us a call at (217) 384-8862 or send us an email. Someone should be available to take your call Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Talk about good vibrations.
A University of Alberta voice coach has been using sex toys to massage the throats of actors and singers and is getting results.
"I know it's a bit different … I know there's a giggle factor, but it works," says David Ley, a professor in the school's drama department. "It relaxes tension in the larynx … it improves range and projection."
He makes it clear he's not a physician or therapist.
"My first advice for a person (with voice or throat issues) would be to go to a doctor," he says. "What I'mtrying to do is to help the person hit that high note or harness their emotional energy."
He spent last fall coaching actors at the Stratford Festival with all the expected exercises and drills, but surprised everyone when he pulled out a small purple "marital aid."
"With a straight face he announced to me he wanted to use it on the actors," says Janine Pearson, the festival's head of voice and coaching. "Of course, he was trying to get a reaction … and he did."
Not just anyone could come to Stratford with such a suggestion, she says, but Ley is "so highly regarded and professional" he was trusted.
Toronto Actor Sara Farb, who is currently in three productions at Stratford, swears by the device and says she bought one online moments after being shown how it worked by Ley. "It was almost immediate," she says. "I couldn't believe it."
Last fall she was in an Edmonton production of Next to Normal, a rock-and-roll musical, and was hard on her voice.
"The temperature was dropping and I had a cat I may have been allergic to," she says. "I was definitely having voice issues."
She said she heard about the professor's work, booked an appointment and has been happy with the result.
Ley says the science has always been around (massage releases tension) but that many people are uncomfortable having their throats manipulated by a therapist or even doing it themselves.
He investigated various massage machines — which he found too awkward — before his search finally ended at the local sex shop.
"I was in the middle of the store testing it on the throat of a friend," he says with a laugh. "The girl behind the counter was intrigued but she listened to every word I had to say about voice and coaching. I'm sure she's heard it all."
The vibrator doesn't look like what many might imagine — it's the size of a computer mouse. With a frequency between 100 and 120, it's pretty close to the range of the human voice.
Ley adds that although the use of a small vibrator to ease the tension in a larynx seems obvious, he can't find the practice anywhere in his research.
He's been getting plenty of media attention from around the world — as would be expected — but he says he's just happy his work is being taken seriously.
He will be speaking on his findings at the Voice Foundation Symposium in Philadelphia this June.

At Rodon, we owe a great deal of our success to the work our toolmakers do. Toolmaking is one of our primary capabilities in our manufacturing process, and our team of professional toolmakers has over 25 years of experience producing high volume plastic parts.
So what kind of person makes for a great toolmaker? This highly demanding job requires dedicated individuals who possess great technical aptitude. The search for toolmakers should surely include one subset of the population: veterans.
The Department of Labor projects, between 2014 - 2019, nearly 1.5 million service members will be transitioning from active duty into a civilian job. As a workforce, the veteran population holds numerous advantages, especially the current Iraq and Afghanistan War era, also known as the Gulf War-era II veterans. The United States military is the most technologically advanced military in the world. As such, it requires a highly technically proficient workforce. The returning veterans of today are disciplined, technologically savvy, and most have tested their skills in Iraq or Afghanistan.

I have finally gotten my Cisco switches to communicate with spiceworks! But now I get the error "Configuration Backup failed. No 'enable' user specified"
Is there a setting I can change so that it does not attempt to back up my configuration? We have a separate team that takes care of switches and their backups among other things and we have at least 75 switches between our 4 offices/off-site storage and i would prefer to not get that many scan errors as result of this.
If i cannot disable this, where does it store the cisco backup configuration? Our IS team is worried about data/network security and exactly what spiceworks is doing with this data or why it wants it.
This topic was created during version 5.3.
The latest version is 7.5.00101.

I have never chased down where the configs are stored but I would guess that they are in the DB on your SW server.
Just a couple comments from my experience with having the configs in SW.
1. If a config change is made, SW notifies you, this makes it nice if multiple people are making changes. You can also easily revert back to the config. if you need to.
2. SW keeps a history of the configs and highlights the changes that were made in each version.
3. If someone forgets to copy the running config to the start up config SQ will let you know.
As far as the Error you are getting is sounds like you need to add the password for elevated permissions. That is set up in the SW scan configuration. I don't know if there is a way to scan the switched but not have it try to pull configs.
