Best Pillow You Will Ever Buy - Period
By Darryl in Toronto
from Toronto, Canada
This was an amazing purchase and well worth the week or so wait to get it. I have used a couple of body pillows before in combination with a nice normal pillow.. but this completely blows that system out of the water. I like to wrap myself around the pillow and get my legs wrapped too.. this makes it easy. Most importantly.. it is soft and COOL. Unlike my other body pillows that would get too warm and sweat.. this stays cool and keeps me comfortable. If you have a nice bed and you love a cozy sleep... you should get this pillow hands down. The $150 sounds steep.. but a couple nights sleep and you will think it was the best money you have spent for yourself in a long time.

This product has improved my sleep dramatically. I am a HOT sleeper. After 1 night of sleeping with this product I noticed a DRAMATIC IMPROVEMENT in the quality of my sleep and daytime productivity.I am now considering the gel mat as well.Excellent Product - Highly Recommend!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Special incentives are also available for operators who take advantage of the program during the upcoming March 20-22 AAMA-AMOA Amusement Expo.
Here's how it works:
» Purchase a Face Place Photo Booth between March 20 and June 30, 2013, and make no payments the first year! Then, either pay in full or make 24 monthly payments at 11% financing.
» Buy Two More Face Place Photo Booths Before the End of 2013 and Qualify for a $1,500 Discount on a 4th Unit!
» Purchase a Face Place Photo Booth at the 2013 Amusement Expo (March 20-22, 2013) and Receive Free Media -- a $420 Value that Includes 600 Prints!
"We call it a '3 By 3 AMOA Member Deal' because the best way to take advantage of this historic offer is to purchase 3 Face Place photobooths during 2013 from your distributor with the special financing over 3 years," explained Apple Industries CEO Allen Weisberg. "That way you get the financing offer on all of your photobooths and you get the $1,500 discount on a fourth photobooth."
"Our 3 By 3 Deal is available only for AMOA members because we wanted to take positive action to demonstrate our support for the national operator association," said Weisberg. "AMOA, like a great photobooth, is one of the pillars of this industry. Like a great photobooth, AMOA is timeless. It has been strengthening operators for decades and it is crucial to operators' success. In addition, we like to think that Apple Industries and AMOA have something in common, too: we will both continue to provide leadership in the amusements industry for decades to come."
Larry Yaffe, Firestone Financial's Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing added, "This the first time in Apple's history that operators have enjoyed the opportunity of stretching their payments for Face Place photobooths over three years and then have no payments in the first year."
"In fact, we believe that that this is the first time such an opportunity has been available for any photobooth. We are enthusiastic about participating in and supporting Apple's 3 By 3 AMOA Deal because we know Face Place photobooths retain value and are strong, long-term earners."
"Since our Face Place photobooth consistently earns year after year, payments are more than just affordable under our new 3 By 3 AMOA member Deal," said Weisberg. "Great photobooths are like jukeboxes and pool tables: staple products that pay for themselves from Day One, with healthy margins left over that go straight the operator's bottom line."
AMOA's Executive Vice President Jack Kelleher noted the deal with Apple and Firestone reflects the organization's ongoing commitment to deliver tangible value to members.
"This is good for everybody. Partnering with strong, committed companies like Apple Industries and Firestone Financial on a truly progressive program like this is exciting for us and we look forward to more collaboration like this in the future."
Operators can learn more about the 3 By 3 AMOA Member Deal from their authorized Apple Industries distributor or by contacting Apple sales representatives. Or, simply stop by the Apple Industries booth 813 at the upcoming March 20-22 Amusement Expo in Las Vegas.

97' 528i auto trans shifting problem, stuck in 1st
BMW is a 1997 528i, auto transmission about ~180,000 miles. Couple years ago when the car was at 100k miles, tranny was giving me some slipping issues as well as getting stuck in S3/S2 when it would rain/snow. At that time, a shop had added some non slip oil to the trans, which fixed the problem for the most part. Another mechanic had told me that the selector sensor located on the side of the transmission has gone bad, which is why it got stuck in S2/3 when it would rain/snow because moisture in the air would freeze the sensor. Though he sounded right, I never replaced that sensor.
At this time, the BMW will not shift out of 1st gear. For the past couple months, the tranny had been giving me slipping issues again, for example, when I would brake, make a left/right turn, go up/down a hill, or accelerate quickly the car would slip in and out of gear for a couple seconds and then knock back in. From my understanding, this means that the trans fliud is low, since sudden jerks/movements while driving would cause the little fluid thats left in there to shift from side to side, making the gears slip in and out.
Unfortunately I hadn't taken care of that problem since, and now the car will not shift out of 1st gear no matter what. Haven't been able to check the codes yet since the nearest autozone requires driving on the highway, but the check engine light is on (has been on for some time now, even before this problem)
Anyway, while driving if I keep the car in (D) Drive, i'll get halfway up the road and when I hit about 3-4k RPM (in first gear), the tranny will slip and the RPMs will rev very high until I let off the gas. At that point the car will not return to 1st gear, and the Transmission? light will come on (not check engine & not traction control, but it's a yellow light on the far right side that looks like a circle) and I have to shut the car off for about a minute and turn it back on before this light will go off and it'll go back into 1st.
So, instead of putting it in Drive, i'm having to put it in S1, which will obviously not let me go over about 25mph, but, the transmission doesn't slip at 3-4k like it does in D. This way I can avoid having that light come on and turning the car off and on.
Also, shifting into S2/S3 will still not let the car shift out of 1st. Reverse, Park, and Neutral all work normally with the correct letters appearing in the dash.
I'm really hoping that the tranny is not done for good. Being on a college student budget, maintenance for this car has just been eating away at the money i've attempted to save. What should I do in my case? Someone had suggested taking it to a tranny shop, and having them drain and fill the transmission fluid to start off with. Do you think this would solve my problem?
Sounds like its time for a rebuild...your worst fears realized. However, I had a similar issue with the exact same car only I had the trifecta lights ....anyway, it was my front wheel speed sensor. You can also try a fluid and filter change. An oem filter and gasket kit is only $50 on ebay and its a fairly easy and straight forward procedure you can do yourself. So there are a couple things you can do yourself for under $200 ....although I doubt its gonna help, but it might...I've seen stranger. If you take it ro a transmission shop make sure they specialize in BMW . The average tranny repairman at your local AAMCO is gonna screw your car up worse and then charge you for it.
I agree that it won't hurt anything but your wallet to try the fluid and filter change. One other thing you might try is to disconnect the ABS module....a bad module will affect transmission shifting....although you'll end up with a Check Engine light and no speedo, fuel calcs, etc, the trans should shift normally if it is in fact the module....worth a try IMO.
First thing Friday ill be taking it to a shop to have them diagnose the fluid and filter levels. But, today I had disconnected the front passenger side wheel sensor, which to my understanding should have disabled the abs unit. Abs, brake, and acs light came on, but I still have speedo and the rest of the gauges working.
By doing that, did I properly disconnect the abs to determine if it would fix the trans problem?
Because afterwards when I attached the wheel and took it for a ride the same problem is still there, no change.
Though, I can say this; when the transmission issue first happened about a week ago, I've noticed that the steering wheel is a bit harder to turn left/right. As if there was more tension... So I checked the level of the ATF fluid under the hood (pink looking liquid) and it was at the correct level. Could this be effected by the same problem the tranny has being stuck in1st?
Last edited by snapple112; 01-16-2013 at 11:26 PM. Reason: Edit
No, disconnecting the wheel sensor does not disconnect the ABS module. IIRC, your module is under the dash....the BMW experts will chime in soon I suppose. Anyway, disconnect the module itself...fairly large plug with many wires.
When my '99 528 module went bad, it affected shifting and a host of other things, to include the w/shield rain sensor. My first symptom was the transmission symbol on the dash....looks somewhat like a gear and the trans was starting off in, I believe, 3rd which made it appear to be slipping but it wasn't.
I don't think you have a trans dipstick under the hood....I think you had ahold of the PS dipstick....pink doesn't sound correct either...it should be red....if truly pink, it may be water contamination in the PS reservoir and if water, could/would cause "tight" steering.
Search previous threads by Bluebee, CN90, 540iman, and several others...they have a lot of knowledge and experience and Bluebees ABS DIY is priceless. I think many contributed to her DIY but she has it all in one thread...extremely helpful.
Good luck!
Note; I had to laugh at my "new" BMW dealer....I traded in a very well-used '99 528 on a 2011 X5. I was not a fan, nor even knew anything about BMW when I purchased mine a little over two years ago and paid $3k for it (actually the auctiondealer I bought it from (Freedom Auto, Manheim Pa) said to buy it, drive it for three months, and if I wasn't happy with it, return it and he would refund all of my money. I had very good luck with the 528 and it sold me on the value and comfort of a BMW. Anyway, yesterday I stopped by my dealer since I saw my old 528 on the used lot and thought I'd see what they were asking for it (was hoping something like $500 or $750 and I would have bought it back)....imagine my surprise and following belly-laugh when I discovered they're asking $5250 for it!!!!!! It's a nice 528 but not near THAT nice!!
Ahh, I see. From the various posts i've read on here regarding disabling the ABS, I had noticed two different ways to do this. 1 being that you can disconnect the unit by taking off the electrical plug under the hood, then removing a few bolts and taking off the actual abs unit that has a few coils/springs within it. This method seemed easy, yet I didn't want to mess with that unit because if something had gone wrong in the process, it's another repair that I can't afford atm. 2 I was under the assumption that you could disconnect the speed sensor located behind the wheel in either the front or back passenger side. This is the method I took, being that it seemed a bit quicker and less harmful if something else had gone wrong. Though, I didn't actually take the entire sensor off, I just disconnected the electrical socket located in the "black box" within the wheel well.
Not too sure if that was correct, though, because a few of the postings I've seen had a blue connector that needed to be taken off, instead this connector was grey.
Anyways, I will reconnect that speed sensor since it didn't effect the tranny at all. Though, my question is... I haven't seen any posts that show you how to disconnect the abs from under the dash. The only ways i've seen was the speed sensor in the wheel well and from under the hood.
There is no dipstick for the tranny fluid under the hood. To my understanding the only way to check that fluid is from under the car on the sides of the tranny. And the ATF fluid that I can check under the hood is for power steering, I believe. It is a redish/dark pink color, but those resivours are known to leak and screw up. So there is a good chance moisture has found its way in the line and caused it to be tight when steering.
Last question... the one thing I haven't tried yet is disconnecting the negative terminal on the battery and leaving it off for a bit. Maybe this will reset something and possibly fix the issue? Let me know if you think I should give this a try, and for how long I should leave it disconnected.
Thanks everyone for your help by the way. I try to be as descriptive as possible when it comes to the BMW... which is why my posts are so damn long lol
Transmission stuck in first gear
I have a similar but more unique problem. I say that because nobody else has mentioned the S 2 light. While driving with the transmission selector in D the D light on the instrument panel shows D as you would expect it to. However, while driving, the D light will extinguish and the S 2 light illuminates. This happens intermittently and sometimes very quickly. One thing for sure is that the transmission follows the lights. It downshifts when the S 2 light illuminates and releases the transmission to a higher gear when the D light illuminates. I've heard a lot of talk here about transmissions stuck in first gear. If I hadn't seen the S 2 light and the D light telegraphing back and forth, with the transmission following them, when in the failure mode, I would have thought that the transmission was stuck in first gear, or whatever gear allows about 40MPH at 4000 RPM. My assumption is that the circuit that lights D and S 2 is driving the transmission based on speed and request for power at the gas pedal. I say that because I don't feel that the transmission has the ability to change those lights. Only the shifter should. The one thing I do know is that if somebody can tell us where the signals come from to illuminate those two lights and I personally think it's going to be an interlock on the bottom of the shifter, that's where we need to focus. I'm going to start there and see if I can get to the bottom of the shifter without causing too much damage. I will get back to you all with anything I find. If somebody has a print and can provide a couple of test points to check and how to get at them I will do that and get back to everybody. I'm really hoping that this description is indicative enough of something that somebody has already seen or knows that can cause this and turns a light bulb on, somewhere other than my instrument panel. If anybody has any further questions or suggestions I will work with all of you to resolve this. Probably like all of you, I don't really have a choice, because it aint going to be a BMW Dealership.

Memories from abroad of the 1920s and 30s

I have a 90-year-old cousin, Catherine (Katie) Woodcock, who moved to Grass Valley in 1928 with her parents, Wilf and Flo.
Wilf worked in a gold mine, although I do not know which one. Katie went to Bell Hill School and later Columbine School before they moved back to Cornwall in 1935. I wonder if any of your readers have any recollection of them or any photos of the schools around that time. I also have some school photos between 1928 and 1935, as well as a photo of neighbors of Woodcraft in 1932.
All these I am happy to email to anyone who wants a copy. Please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com. Best wishes.

As a child, Chrystal Butterfield remembers her mother helping out the neighbors in secret.
She'd buy gifts and make blankets, but she wouldn't take credit.
"She would have us leave it on the porch and run," Butterfield recalled, laughing at the memory.
It's a recollection that brings a lighthearted smile to Butterfield's face now, but it was part of what inspired her to a lifetime of service.
The Kearns woman, now 40, stuffs stockings for soldiers, heads a free chaplain service, is working to start a Kearns community garden, volunteers at senior centers and serves on several community boards and councils and that's just in her free time.
She also works full time for a cemetery and mortuary and has three teenagers. Relaxing at home is not part of her repertoire.
"I have no idea how she fits it all in along with raising really great kids," said Sheryl Ivey, director of volunteer services for Salt Lake County, noting that whenever she needs help, Butterfield is always willing and ready. "She isn't just there on paper. She's there."
Like her mother, Butterfield has inspired her teens to help out as well. They often volunteer alongside her.
"They know what it means to go out and serve your community," Butterfield said. "I think that's what it's all about, is making sure your neighbors are taken care of. There's so many other people out there other than yourself that are struggling and if you put your resources together, just think how much better life would be for everybody."
Butterfield ardently believes that one altruistic act can spark a chain reaction of kindness.
It's something of which she's reminded when she sees drivers helping to change a fellow motorist's flat tires, neighbors shoveling walkways, or even in her own life such as the time a stranger filled her tank when she forgot to bring cash to the gas station.
"It doesn't have to be because it's a holiday," Butterfield said. "It's just because somebody wants to."

Cor pulmonale
Cor pulmonale
Chronically low blood levels of oxygen may lead to pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs), and possibly to cor pulmonale. Cor pulmonale is also called right-sided heart failure, and is characterized by enlargement of the right ventricle. Treatment targets the underlying illness and may include supplemental oxygen, a low-salt diet or calcium channel blockers.

LISTEN: One Direction + 5 Seconds of Summer = epic mash-up!
What happens when 5 Seconds of Summer meets One Direction? A mash-up of epic proportions for the boy-crazy!
YouTuber earlvin14 combined 5 Seconds of Summer's debut single, "She Looks So Perfect" with One Direction's song "Kiss You" - and the result is pretty great! Check out 5SOS + One D below.
Okay, move over boybands. 5SOS is a little more 'rock' than you may realize, as evidenced by their raucous cover of Green Day's "American Idiot." In fact, the guys count Green Day as a big influence on their music.
Check out the cover and let us know what you think!

This is the handheld vacuum with a telescoping nozzle that uses a patented mechanical suction system to capture bugs without getting close to them. Requiring no electrical power, a pleated plastic bellows at the vacuum's bottom compresses by hand and locks in-place automatically with a spring-loaded mechanism. A press of the button trigger expands the bellows instantly to generate 10X the suction of battery-powered vacuums, capturing flies, bees, spiders, and other insects through a one-way trap door in the nozzle into a removable isolation chamber that allows bugs to be dumped outdoors. The vacuum's expandable tube places the nozzle's tip 16 3/4" to 23" from a user's thumb on the button trigger. 37" L x 3 3/4" Diam. (1 1/4 lbs.)�

No suction power at ALL
By Karen
from Atlanta GA
I don't know if I got a defective product but the one I received has hardly any suction when pressing the button to capture the bug. I tested it on a small piece of white paper and it didn't even make it in the tube.I will be returning this.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I really like the 2 attachments - 1 for moths and 1 for spiders. Easy to use and great for getting into corners and hard to reach areas. MUCH BETTER than a fly swatter. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
Great product
By Native Plant Guy
from Richmond, Calif
Wonderful device. Now I can trap spiders and other insects and safely move them outside.
Stink Bugs have no chance
By S
from Scarsdale, NY
Once you figure out how to use this (takes a few minutes) then you are all set. Just wait for the dreaded Stink Bug to appear. It will either vacuum the bug in or knock it unconscious, depending on how you aim. Either way the bug has no chance. Reload, aim right, vacuum in and dispose.
Works as advertised
By JayBee
from Pittsburgh, PA
Had to chase the spider with it. Wish the sucking end was wider. Otherwise woeked very well.

Dear Fellow State Associations and NAMA Members:
RDM Sales and Service Inc. v. Indiana Department of State Revenue (Case No. 82T10-1001-TA-3) is currently pending before the Indiana Tax Court. This case disputes the imposition of taxes on vending machine sales in a number in ways. Specifically, that the application of sales tax on certain items sold through a vending machine, that are not similarly taxed when sold in a convenience or grocery store, is discriminatory and unconstitutional. The case, relating to sales in years 2006, 2007 and 2008, and is expected to go to trial this fall.
The Indiana Tax Court is a unique venue that has only been adopted by a few states. In the state of Indiana, a tax law can be challenged in a non-jury court with a judge having sole decision authority. Such is the case in the above-mentioned lawsuit filed against the State of Indiana, by an Indiana Vending Council member, RDM Sales and Service of Ferdinand, Indiana. Rob Schlachter, President of RDM Sales and Service, has chosen this tax court to challenge what he believes is a discriminatory practice of taxing 20oz. bottled water sold through a vending machine and not taxing it in any other sales channel.
This case only deals with a 20oz. bottle of water. The fact that there are no other factors, other than bottled water, included in this case has the entire Board of Governors for the Indiana Vending Council extremely optimistic for a favorable decision by the Tax Court Judge. If this is the case, we believe all of the discriminatory taxing practices within Indiana against the Vending Industry will begin to disappear. We believe a favorable opinion in this case could affect taxing practices in other states.
The purpose of this letter is two-fold. First, to inform the Industry of this legal action and second, to educate the industry on the fact that lawsuits cost money and that the financial burdens of this type of action would be life threatening to many of our companies. We have spoken with the attorneys for RDM and have decided to begin a fundraising campaign to assist with RDM's legal costs. Our fundraising goal is $50,000.00. We believe that this amount will allow us to move forward to a successful decision.
We are reaching out to our friends in the industry and asking them to consider donating to this important cause. Anything you can donate would be appreciated: $5, $50, $100, or $1000. Every donation will help us get closer to the goal.
Please make checks payable to the RDM Victory Fund and mail them to: Indiana Vending Council, PO Box 56074, Indianapolis, IN., 46526.
The IVC will oversee the fund and make sure all funds are forwarded to the attorneys for RDM.
Thank you for your time and consideration of this request. Should you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at my cell phone number listed below.

Clyburn scholarship established at Arnold School
The James E. Clyburn Research and Scholarship Foundation is giving $100,000 to the University of South Carolina to establish an endowed scholarship in public health, USC officials announced Tuesday (Oct. 12).
The James E. and Emily E. Clyburn Public Health Endowed Scholarship Fund will help students enrolled in the five-year, dual-degree program at USC and Claflin University in Orangeburg. The program allows undergraduate students at Claflin to earn a bachelor's degree in biology and a master's degree in public health from the Arnold School of Public Health at USC.
"Throughout his career, Congressman Clyburn has dedicated himself to addressing healthcare disparities in the state of South Carolina and has served as a leading proponent for public health education in the United States," USC President Harris Pastides said. "This endowed scholarship in public health will serve as a lasting and appropriate legacy for Jim and Emily Clyburn."
The dual-degree program, also known as the "4 + 1 Program," is designed to develop public health professionals from under-represented populations who are pursuing careers to address health disparities.
"Emily and I are thrilled that our foundation can make this contribution to get this endowment started and we are pleased to have it named in our honor. It reflects our commitment to reducing health disparities and improving public health for all South Carolinians," Clyburn said. "I thank Dr. Pastides for his vision and USC and Claflin University for partnering on this project."
Clyburn said the effort between USC and Claflin is a further example of the type of cooperation and regionalism that can improve the state. The dual-degree program, which will increase the number of public health professionals working in South Carolina, will help prevent some of the health issues that plague the state, he said.
"So much of what ails people in South Carolina can be prevented," Clyburn said.
Claflin University President Henry N. Tisdale said the dual degree between his university and USC's Arnold School of Public Health is an innovative program that fits into the school's long-range plan.
"Within that plan we have a commitment, a strategic initiative, to continue to build on and strengthen programs that serve the critical needs of our state and the nation," Tisdale said.

At Snoqualmie Pass, playing in the snow means more than skiing or snowboarding.
You can also barrel down the slopes on giant inner tubes.
The Summit at Snoqualmie resort has 12 groomed tubing lanes, each about as long as a football field, with a tow line that quickly runs you back to the top so you can spend more time taking rides down.
The lanes are available in two-hour sessions from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Tickets are $20 to $22 for ages 13 and older, $18 to $20 for ages 6 to 12, and $5 for ages 5 and younger.
There's no age limit, and small kids can double up or ride with an adult.
The tubing center is at 2183 Highway 906 at Snoqualmie Pass. Take I-90 east to exit 53 and turn right onto Yellowstone Trail Road, then left on Highway 906.
For more information, call the tubing center at 425-434-6791 or go to www.summitatsnoqualmie.com.
For other snowplay information, call the Summit at Snoqualmie, 425-434-7669, or check the website.
Groomed trails
The Summit at Snoqualmie has well-graded and groomed trails for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. The Summit rents equipment too. It's open on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, and continues to early April depending on snow conditions. Trail fees range from $14 to $19, and there's no charge if you're 70 or older or 6 and younger. Call the Summit nordic center at 425-434-6778, or go to www.summitsnoqualmie.com.
REI Alderwood also has a snowshoe rental program. Adult snowshoes are $20 the first day, plus $10 for each additional day, and youth rentals are $12 the first day and $6 for additional days. The store doesn't charge for pickup and drop-off days.

text: I have no source to link but from someone I know that is fairly close to the organization, the Cowboys are pursuing Tony Sparano to be the new OC and Lovie Smith as the new DC. Also, there is interest of finding a new QB coach. Again, I cannot say this is fact, just forwarding this on to you. I'm writing from my phone so I'm keeping it short. Other names on the list are Norv Turner, Brian Billick, and Romeo Crennel. Again, none of this is a guarantee or could just be leaves in the wind. Just wanted to throw this in the mix. Maybe someone with more connections could verify or denounce this.

Jody Wynn didn't like the last play of Sunday's game against Santa Clara, mostly because she'd seen it before.
Santa Clara's Arteivia Lilomaiava scored on a rebound of a missed shot at the buzzer to give the Broncos a 68-67 win over Long Beach State at the Pyramid, almost identical to the put-back at the buzzer in Iona's 60-58 win over the 49ers at the Pyramid a month ago.
The 49ers led Sunday's game by as many as 12 points and had a four-point lead at 67-63 with 1:17 left before the game got away from them.
Santa Clara hit a baseline jumper and a free throw to draw within one, and got the rebound of the missed second free throw. The 49ers looked like they had the game when Lauren Spargo tied up a Bronco on the baseline with 7.8 seconds left for a held possession with the arrow going the 49ers' way.
But Bianka Baltahzar tried to throw over the defense on the inbounds pass and it was short and intercepted. Nici Gilday's runner in the lane hit the iron but the rebound went to Lilomaiava, who put it back up and in.
"They out-hustled us, won the 50-50 plays and were the tougher team," Wynn said. "And I really didn't expect a team would out-hustle us again after the Iona loss.
"Bianka's pass was costly, but we lost the game two or three possessions before that because we couldn't get an offensive rebound."
The 49ers (4-4) didn't get the rebound of a missed shot on a Broncos (4-4) possession in the last minute or on the subsequent missed free throw.
"That was the story of the game," Wynn said. "I was very disappointed with our defensive focus in the second half. They had way too many second-chance opportunities. We didn't get many, and when we did we didn't do much them."
The 49ers had a 23-7 run over an eight-minute span late in the first half to take a 40-30 lead into halftime. They still led by nine, 51-42, when Santa Clara went on a 20-6 run for a 62-57 advantage.
The 49ers rallied with a 9-1 run to lead 67-63 with 1:17 to go on threes by Mary Ochiltree and Spargo, Jada Wilson's bucket and two free throws, but wouldn't score again.
"We held a very good 3-point shooting team to one three, but we couldn't get an offensive rebound when we needed it," Wynn said.
Santa Clara was 1-for-18 from beyond the arc but had 41 rebounds, 21 offensive, to Long Beach's 36 total and just 13 offensive.
Balthazar led the 49ers with 15 points. Wilson had nine, and Devin Hudson had eight rebounds. Long Beach's guards had an off night shooting. Meagan Fulps (18 points, seven rebounds) and Ruta Zuruskyte (16 and six) led the Broncos.
The 49ers visit the University of San Diego on Saturday and return to the Pyramid for the Beach Classic on Dec.20 and 21.

text: OverviewBack to top Larenim Mineral Make Up - Foundation 12W - 5 Grams Item# :100843UPC# :670188123411 Brand:Larenim Mineral Make Up Size/Form:5 Grams Larenim Loose Foundation 12W Larenim Loose Foundation 12W is 100% natural and will not irritate your skin. Made with pure minerals, Larenim Loose Foundation 12W will protect your skin while hiding blemishes, and accenting your natural beauty! To start, lightly dip the Kabuki into the minerals and tap off the excess. Then, continue to brush the coating of minerals onto the face. There is not a special motion; simply cover your face with the minerals and repeat once or twice until you are happy with the coverage. You can go over any blemishes or ruddiness that is still visible with the Camouflage Oval brush using a slightly heavier application of the foundation. You can also use the Camouflage Oval brush to apply concealer or foundation around your eyes. Another tip is to mix a tiny bit of Larenim® foundation or concealer with a drop of jojoba oil using the Camouflage Oval or Camouflage Oval Grande brush to make a high-coverage concealer. Make sure you feather the edges of the applied concealer to create a natural effect. NOTE: All containers come with a clear seal on top of a sifter. The sifter controls the flow to prevent waste. Remove the seal altogether, or poke through some of the holes with a pin for lighter flow. Many products within the Larénim makeup line can be used together to create a naturally beautiful look for anyone and everyone. The first step is to start with a good Foundation and Blush combination. When looking at Foundation, you will notice that each color has a number and a letter. The letter refers to C for Cool, W for Warm or N for Neutral. The lower the number preceding the letter, the lighter in shade the foundation will be. For instance, 3-W will be lighter than 4-W.Pink Undertones & Fair Skin - Look for a foundation color in the C range.Yellow Undertones - Pick a foundation within the W range. Neutral (no distinct pink or yellow undertones) - Choose a foundation in the N range. How do I select a foundation? We strongly suggest purchasing a couple of different trial size colors. The "C's" (after the number) indicate "cool" colors with pink undertones while the "W's" indicate "warm" colors with yellow undertones. Many Caucasian women believe before trying them, that they will be a "C"ool. But the truth is that many of them look better with a "W"arm because they may have a lot of red in their skin. Reddish skin becomes beautifully minimized with a warm color. Test your foundation shade on your face; not your hand. Your hand will not give you an accurate depiction of how your color will look on your face. Wait at least ten minutes to decide if your shade is a good match - even if it initially looks like it is. Most foundations will deepen a little within ten to fifteen minutes of application. Every once in a while I get a streak while applying my foundation.

Housing and oil prices are down. Commercial construction and the stock market are up. It all adds up to a mundane, safe, hardly excitable phrase to describe 2007 and beyond: cautious optimism.
The housing situation is on many minds, as both construction starts and prices finally started to slow and then fall to more realistic, manageable rates in 2006. "We are in a housing market recession, but not an economic recession," Jeremy Zirin, senior equity strategist with UBS Financial Services, told the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association in October. "We are clearly seeing a deceleration in economic growth."
"Housing is slowing more than people had realized," Mark Vitner, a director and senior economist at Wachovia, told the same audience. But Vitner says housing's contribution to growth in the United States "is large, but has likely been exaggerated." That's because while home sales skyrocketed, the nation's home ownership rate fell in 2004 and '05. "Many sales were speculative," Vitner concludes.
After a sluggish 2007, Zirin forecasts housing to regain a foothold in 2008. "The only way to work off all of these inventory levels is to lower prices," he said. Similarly, Eric Belsky, executive director of the Joint Center for Housing Studies at Harvard University, told the Hanley Wood American Housing Conference in September these inventory levels will be worked off, creating an upturn in late 2007 or 2008.
Still, the housing slowdown is not being felt in all markets. Pockets of the country—much of Texas, the Mississippi Gulf and the mid-Atlantic—still showed strength, according to a U.S. Federal Reserve Bank report in October.
"Pricing strength and growth have ebbed in many parts of the U.S.," said Pierre Villere, president of Allen Villere Partners and TCP columnist (see page 28). "Commercial and public works is picking up the slack in many markets. Florida could come back faster than many parts of the country due to public works and commercial construction."

Jefferson City, Tenn. – Carson-Newman College drilled 20 three-pointers and rolled past Brevard College, 98-91, Wednesday night at Holt Fieldhouse. The loss is Brevard's third in as many tries against South Atlantic Conference foes on the road.
Brevard's Jonathan Whitson (Clyde, N.C.) led all scorers with 26 points. The Tornados (9-7, 2-5 SAC) also got ten points each from Joseph Chilton (Brasstown, N.C.) and Sam Carlisle (Raleigh, N.C.), who added ten rebounds for his third double-double of the season.
The Eagles (6-11, 3-3 SAC) were led by Adam Plavich (Dalton, Ga.), who stroked seven of 11 three-point attempts to score 21 points. As a team, Carson-Newman shot 44.4% (20-45) from long distance.
Brevard opened the game on a 10-3 run, including a pair of three-pointers from Nathan Whitmire (Rosman, N.C.). Carlisle scored a basket at the 15:44 mark of the first half to cap the opening stretch.
Carson-Newman took their first lead of the game on a Plavich bomb at the 14:48 point to make the score 13-12. After two more Plavich trifectas, the Eagles built a 34-28 lead with 3:13 left in the half after a free throw from Trey Okoth (Richmond, Va.)
Michael Jones' team roared back with seven consecutive points, including a three-pointer and lay-up from Chilton, to surge ahead, 35-34, with 2:22 left in the half. Carson-Newman immediately went back ahead on a trey from Bobby Guyton (Jesup, Ga.), but the black and blue came back with five straight of their own, capped by a Whitson three-point play, to lead, 40-37, with 1:06 before intermission.
The Eagles had two more long range shots in the tank before the first half buzzer. Jordan Dixon (Clinton, Tenn.) tied the game at 40 with a shot from distance, and Plavich gave the Eagles a 43-40 halftime lead with a triple of his own 33 seconds before the break.
Brevard opened the second stanza with a 9-3 spurt, all of the points coming from Whitson. The Pisgah High product capped the outburst with a pair of freebies 16:16 before the final bell to make the score 49-46.
From that point forward, the game belonged entirely to the Eagles. The home side scored the game's next 12 points, capped by yet another Plavich three-pointer, to lead 58-49 with 12:48 left.
Aided by Tornado turnovers and missed free throws, the Eagles used a 27-12 over the next 7:21 to amass an 85-61 lead. Carson-Newman drained four three-pointers in the run, including two more from Plavich. A late-closing Brevard squad outscored the Eagles 28-11 in the game's final 4:50 to make the score a more respectable 98-91.
"We didn't do a good job tonight of following our scouting report of Carson-Newman," Jones said after the defeat. "We played right into the hands of their full-court pressure and we didn't pick up their shooters defensively."
Playing without head coach Dale Clayton, who was absent to attend the birth of his grandchild earlier in the day, the Eagles forced Brevard into 32 turnovers, a season-worst. In addition to Plavich, the Eagles got double figures from Guyton, who scored 17 points, Jesse McMurray (Weber City, Va.), who added 14, Zach Hyatte (Dayton, Tenn.), with 12 and Dixon, who finished with ten.
In addition to turning the ball over 32 times, Brevard shot just 54.5% (18-33) from the free throw line. Brevard did win the battle on the glass, 53 rebounds to 38.
Brevard goes out of the SAC Saturday to play North Greenville, a 4 p.m. contest. Carson-Newman plays at Lenoir-Rhyne on Saturday, with tip-off coming at 8 p.m.

Wow so much hate for her I don't know her personally but id much rather have her ref my fight then 75% of the so called refs at lower level in the uk. I have seen some disgusting refereeing such as guys getting stood up just because the home town fighter was getting beat down. Id love to see a rule that all refs must be licensed and get random tests where someone randomly watches there event and marks them so we have a division for refs such as football. We know a few of the refs on here are spot on but we also know the dodgy ones get away with murder.

Tom Ridge kisses and tells on Bush
By Brad Knickerbocker
For those who had their doubts about the politics behind the Bush administration's "war on terrorism," Tom Ridge's new book will fuel long-held suspicions.
The former Republican governor of Pennsylvania, who was the first head of the Department of Homeland Security, says two top Bush officials – Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and Attorney General John Ashcroft – pressured him to up the terror alert level before the 2004 election, according to promotional materials by publisher Macmillan.
"Ridge also charges that he was often 'blindsided' during daily morning briefings with Bush because the FBI withheld information from him, and says he was never invited to sit in on National Security Council meetings," reports AFP.
Former Bush officials have been quick to push back on Ridge's revelation.
Frances Frago Townsend, who coordinated homeland security matters at the National Security Council under President Bush, said Ridge is "absolutely wrong" in his allegation. "Politics played no part in any discussion" of the Homeland Security Council, Ms. Townsend insists in The Atlantic.
Not surprisingly, Ridge's news has ricocheted around cable TV, radio talk shows, and the blogosphere.
Kansas City Star columnist Yael Abouhalkah says Ridge's "serious charges" are "scathing."
"An abuse so gross – if Ridge is right – shows, among other things, what a powerful influence on the all-important tracking polls terror alerts must have had," writes Ben Smith on Politico.com. "And it suggests that Obama's efforts to keep terror arrests out of the national news are good politics too."
On the other hand, Jay Bookman, columnist and deputy editorial page editor of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, dug back into news stories from the summer of 2004 to find that Ridge may not have been the total white knight his publicists claim.
An Associated Press story with a lead that described the essence of John Kerry's failing presidential campaign – "The politics of terrorism has Democrats tied in knots" – has Ridge warning of "possible al-Qaeda terrorist attacks to financial institutions in New York City, Washington, and Newark, N.J."
In other words, he wasn't always fighting off the pressure to send sober warnings that just happened to benefit his boss running for reelection from the White House in the middle of a war that wasn't going all that well. The AP story went on to point out that "the Bush administration let a 24-hour news cycle pass before acknowledging that most of the intelligence, while recently obtained, was three or four years old."
Not long after the election that November, Ridge resigned.
"After that episode [involving Ashcroft and Rumsfeld], I knew I had to follow through with my plans to leave the federal government for the private sector," Ridge writes in "The Test of Our Times: America Under Siege ... And How We Can Be Safe Again."
It's not unusual for former government officials to recount their version of history – for profit and as a means of shaping their reputation. Five years later, Tom Ridge is doing just that.

TENAFLY, N.J. - In its final tune-up before next weekend's Ivy League Championships, the University of Pennsylvania women's golf team finished second out of five teams at the annual Roar-EE Invitational, which ran all day Friday at Knickerbocker Country Club.
In a five-team field, Penn was chasing host Columbia after the first round. And while the Quakers made up three strokes on the Lions in Friday's second round, it was not enough as Columbia earned the team title with a two-round 610 (302-308). Penn shot 309 Friday morning, thenimproved to 305 in the second round for a two-round total of 614.
Penn could also be bolstered by the top of its lineup, as the Quakers went 2-3-4 in a field of 24 golfers. Freshman Marissa Kay was the Red and Blue's low scorer for the event, shooting a first-round 76 and following up with a 75 for a two-round total of 151. That was four shots behind the individual champion, Columbia's Monique Ishikawa (74-73--147).
Sophia Chen finished third overall(76-76--152), while Amanda Chin was fourth (75-78--153). Erin Lo improved by six strokes from her first round to the second round, and ended the tournament ninth overall (82-76--158). Senior Olivia Chang rounded out Penn's lineup, shooting 94-89--183.

On March 16, 2011, I was in your Panera Bread Cafe 3058 (Sugar Creek Township, Ohio 45459, Phone: 937-848-4900) for a meal. When I picked up my salad at the completed order counter station--I noticed my salad was skimpy. I mentioned to the young man covering this order completion area--that my salad bowl was not as full as it has been in the past. He responded in an unpleasant manner--"that's the way it is now because Panera Bread has cracked down on portion control. Now only 2 ounces of lettuce is allowed." My mother and I were shocked.
An apology would be nice. I hope that my customer service feedback to The Panera Bread Corporation will inspire a better focus on kinder and respectful customers in the future.
It's all about the bottom line. Shareholders want a profit. Honestly,We eat to much anyway and the majority of us can stand to reduce ourintake. Salad or not.
I don't understand your complaint. You asked a question and you gotan honest answer. What exactly is your problem with the response? And from whom do you want an apology? And for what?
I would suggest making a nice fresh homemade salad for yourself andyour mother. This way you can portion out exactly how much you want.
You will be shocked how quickly you can toss up a salad!
good day
What I do not understand is when the customer complainted why theemployee not pick up the phone and get the CEO on the phone. OR if itwas after hours call the CEO on his house phone or his personal cellphone. I am sure the CEO would have taken that call.
Now back to reality - many, many front line employees and managershave no say or even input into many decisions. At my job if I call theCEO to give input on say pricing not only would I not get through butmy boss could very well get a upset phone call. So why do people stillchoose to take it on frontline employees. My reading is that the OP ismore upset at the smaller size so do not take it out on the employee.Just plain rude. Write, email, call upper mgt. the ones who make thedecisions.
I know you're not going to like this, but everywhere is being hit bythe shrink ray. Just look at a jar of mayo. It's not 32 oz anymore.It's 30. Or a "gallon" of orange juice. Not quite a gallon.
Restaurants are being hit by the shrink ray too. Some used to give twosides, plus a salad. Now they only do one side. Sometimes we have tomake sacrifices in a crappy economy.
I'm intrigued by the number of letters on PFB about portion sizesdecreasing and/or costs going up. We're at a point where one or theother is going to happen to just about everything. Companies cannotcontinue to eat the ever rising costs themselves, they are in thebusiness of making money. So, they either have to downsize theproduct, or raise prices. I personally prefer it when companiesdownsize the product. This way I can continue sticking to my budgetand still buy the occasional splurge. Who wants to spend $8 on a halfgallon of ice cream for instance when the company can downsize thecontainer a bit and keep the cost to the consumer the same.
I suppose if this server was rude about your question, I canunderstand your being a bit upset. Although, my first thought is thatthis may have been the 100th time this person had been asked about thenew portion sizes. Regardless, it sounds like he answered yourquestion, it just may not have been what you wanted to hear.
Curtis W.,
I am confident that Panera will get back with you. Please do the sameso we know what they say.
The gentleman working the line sounds like he shared what informationhe had as best he could probably knowing the message was not going tobe received well.
This is a question best responded to by a manager who might haveexplained it a little differently and maybe even made a one timeexception.
Thanks for sharing.
I suppose they could raise prices to keep portions larger, would yoube ok with that?

- Due to the way the fglrx drivers are implemented in Linux, ATI based cards cannot stream HD audio via HDMI (DTS and Dolby 5.1 are not HD audio codecs. You can still get surround sound, just not TrueHD or DTS-HD). This is because their audio system cannot handle more than 2 channels.

BREVARD, N.C. - The Brevard College women's basketball team fell 76-59 to the Lincoln Memorial University Railsplitters in South Atlantic Conference action in Boshamer Gymnasium on Thursday night.
The Railsplitters (10-7, 9-4 SAC) used eight unanswered points midway through the second while BC (5-12, 4-9 SAC) was unable to score for a stretch of over two minutes to push the game out of BC's reach. The run gave LMU a 17-point lead, and the Railsplitters lead remained in double digits for the rest of the contest.
Madison Lenox and Katie Williams both scored in double figures for BC, going for 13 and 12, respectively. Lenox added a team-high seven rebounds.
Early in the first half, the game kept an even pace between both teams. LMU took a 10-point lead at the 7:04 minute mark, forcing the Tornados to play from behind.
Brevard freshman Chelsea Turner assisted Madison Lenox for a three-pointer to cut the deficit to six at the 6:29 mark. A three from Turner on BC's next possession made it a three-point game before LMU pushed their lead to 10 at the half.
Brevard put defensive pressure on the Railsplitters early in the second half, which helped BC convert 14 points off turnovers in the game. Katie Williams, Shelby Wolfe and Madison Lenox combined for four steals in the second half.
The Railsplitters never trailed in the game as Lincoln Memorial's Haley Nelson and Samantha Satterlee combined for 33 points.
The Tornados will travel to Lenoir-Rhyne on Saturday afternoon for a 4 p.m. tipoff with the Bears in Shuford Memorial Gymnasium.

The House passed two bills Tuesday to tweak election rules in Utah changing when a recount may be requested, and when special elections may be scheduled.
It voted 72-0 to pass HB85 to allow a recount if the difference between votes for a winning and losing candidate is 0.25 percent or less of the total vote. Also in elections where 400 or fewer votes are cast, it allows a recount if the difference is just one vote.
Its sponsor, Rep. Craig Hall, R-West Valley City, said that would change the current system that allows a recount if the difference amounts to one vote or fewer per precinct. Because of wide differences in the number of precincts in many races, that has led to inconsistency.
For example for Utah House seats, the current system allows requesting a recount with widely different percentage differences, a range of 0.124 percent to 0.42 percent.
Hall said some have wrongly asserted the bill is a "sour grapes" attempt by Republicans to change rules because Mia Love was unable to request a recount in her close congressional race with Rep. Jim Matheson, D-Utah. Hall said the difference in that race was 0.31 percent, and Love would still not have been able to request a recount under his bill.
The House also voted 73-1 to pass HB40 to allow special elections such as for bonds or to fill vacancies to occur only during regular primary or general elections. Its sponsor, Rep. Kraig Powell, R-Heber City, said that would lead to greater participation and awareness of such elections.
Both bills now go to the Senate for consideration.
