Just so we get things straight here, I actually bought this dress before I bought my YSL's, and even though I paid to get it shortened afterwards, it doesn't technically count (okay? okay.). No doubt you've heard about the terrible, very bad, good-for-nothing heat wave, and it's seriously put a damper on my outfits. Thanks goodness I decided to wear this dress though, because I got lost on the train, and was running around Midtown like a blindfolded chicken (is that even an idiom?) trying to find my way to my first day at Radar (which was awesome, btw). The open back kept me cool, and the folding and pleating in the front kept things interesting enough so I didn't feel like I was going to a funeral. The accompanying photograph is from an Elle.com slideshow, but I wore mine today with sandals and a blazer (which I promptly took off as soon as I left the office).
UPDATE ON THE READER/BLOGGER GET-TOGETHER: Meet us in Central Park (at the Summerstage) on Saturday at one--we'll be the ones with the balloons. Hopefully there aren't multiple people with balloons, but if you get hopefully lost or confused, Casey will have her blackberry so you can email her at email@example.com and she'll get right back to you.
One last thing: check me out at the teen vogue blog! Guuhh skadfjlskdfj so exciting

HONG KONG (AP) — Economic growth in developing Asia is picking up, underpinned by China's rebound and strength in countries such as Indonesia, the Asian Development Bank said in a report Tuesday, while warning that political disputes pose an increased threat to growth.
The Manila-based lender's 2013 Asian Development Outlook said some big dangers to regional growth have faded, such as the possibility of the euro common currency breaking up or a "U.S. fiscal shock" stemming from brinkmanship over the debt ceiling in the world's biggest economy.
But it said that "political risks are emerging as the main threats to the region's continued robust growth." Political disputes are "calling into question the ability of authorities to find compromise solutions to nagging fiscal problems in the US, deepening austerity fatigue in the euro area and simmering border disputes in Asia."
Over the past year, several Asia nations have been roiled by territorial disputes, including a high-profile row between China and Japan over disputed islands in the East China Sea.
The ADB said developing Asia, which includes giant emerging economies such as China, India and Indonesia, will expand 6.6 percent this year, unchanged from its previous forecast in December. Growth is forecast to inch higher to 6.7 percent in 2014. The region grew 6.1 percent in 2012,
Developing Asia includes 45 developing or newly industrialized countries in Asia and the Pacific but excludes Japan.
The ADB said inflation would tick higher but would be kept in check, with consumer prices rising by 4 percent this year and 4.2 percent in 2014, up from 3.7 percent in 2012. The report warned policymakers to keep an eye on rising prices because as growing factory output eliminates slack in production capacity, "loose monetary policy risks reigniting inflation."
China's economy, the world's second biggest, will expand 8.2 percent this year after growing 7.8 percent in 2012, driven by strong domestic consumption and investment. The forecasts are both 0.1 percentage point higher than the ADB's December prediction.
China is rebounding from its deepest slump since the 2008 global crisis though analysts warn recovery will be shaky. China's growth rate will ease to 8 percent in 2014 as authorities bring in policies aimed at reducing pollution and reducing the gap between rich and poor, the ADB said.
Southeast Asia, the only region covered in the report that didn't slow last year, will maintain its growth rate as robust private consumption and investment outweigh softer demand for exports. Indonesia will expand about 6.5 percent in each of the next two years while the Philippines will grow about 6 percent.
India, the region's other giant, will expand 6 percent this year and 6.5 percent next year, the report said, but warned that the country risks being held back by structural and policy issues that hamper investment.
In contrast, the developed economies of the US, Japan and the 17 nations the use the euro will eke out a 1 percent expansion this year, rising to 1.9 percent in 2014.
The ADB also warned that Asia needs to secure enough clean and cheap energy to support long-term growth. With developing Asia's share of global energy use forecast to grow from barely a third in 2010 to more than half by 2035, the region, which has plenty of coal but relatively little oil and natural gas, may be hard pressed to meet its demands.
"With insufficient energy, developing Asia would need to scale back its growth ambitions," said the report, which recommended curbing general energy subsidies in favor of targeted ones, tapping cleaner energy sources such as wind, solar and biofuels, and integrating gas and electricity networks to create a regional market.

Dealers are dealers they have products to sell and need to put food on the table just like photographers, though ultimately that's why they are here.
Actually, I haven't forgotten a thing. But moving swiftly on from the condescension...Hi Gerald,No condescension meant. I do not receive free equipment or Loaners from any Phase one dealer. I pay as I go. They have mortgages to pay as well. And I really like having them around. I own or rent my gear on a per project basis. Yes. I agree there are many sources on the web. I'm a bit partial to LULU because it reminds me of when you would drop off film to your lab and bump into another photographer judging a clip over a light table. It's was a great place to trade notes on shooting or photography war stories. As I said Fred is entitled to his opinions. Thank you,Jeffery
Of course excellent relationships have a positive effect on your business.Photographers that treat their suppliers and crew well get better performance and I don't know what you shoot, or your business model, but having a deep list of good suppliers that will search for some esoteric piece of equipment, or give you a pre heads up about a new firmware or equipment change can save you a ton of time.Also it's nice to work with people you can count on.I work with dealers and rental companies around the world and until you've a bad one, you can't really appreciate a good one.In regards to the dealers on this forum it's obvious they want to sell equipment and put it in it's best light. There is no hidden agenda on this.Then again, of the few dealers and reps that participate, I've seen them help more non clients than clients, so I believe anyone that labels them as vultures is mistaken.In regards to the person that posts about the d800 I think it's fine though it seems to be the same song over and over, regardless of the topic which gives the impression that there's an agenda cooking.Maybe because he didn't have the positive experience he was hoping for from his 645 camera and back.I could be wrong, but some of this I just don't get. If I was a meticulous as this poster professes to be, before I bought something as expensive as a medium format system I would have tested it in the exact conditions I work.By the time I wrote the check there would be few surprises and if there were I can promise you the dealers on this forum will make it right.This is why you want a good dealer relationship, because before the point of purchase they will make sure to get the right equipment in your hands to test to your hearts content.As long as your serious about buying from them. After the point of purchase they'll do there best to support you.And BTW: Photographers can be dicks. Don't think any of these dealers or reps have it easy and roll in the jack, because it's not that way. I'd have to grow twenty hands to count the times i've seen photographers bug a dealer to death, ask a trillion questions, test everything on the shelf, then when it comes time to write the check they search the Bay or some going out of business dealer and buy from them, all to save $400.The crazy ass thing is if the equipment goes south, they call the original dealers that they drove nuts and start screaming about why don't you get this fixed?There also the same photographers that scream the loudest when their clients go to some cheap guy that offers more volume and less service, though they think it's fine when they do the same.It use to be the WallMart syndrome, now it's the Amazon syndrome.Sorry to go off topic.IMOBC
I can't see a problem as long as all interests are declared. I can live with bias if I know it exists.

Fred likes to entertain - and not long ago we heard the same song and dance from Fred about 35mm DSLR:http://www.modelmayhem.com/po.php?thread_id=823993So his experience wasn't all bad
......snip........combined with the instability of MFD that changed my mind.
OK.I'll cut you some slack cause you love your Nikon.You think it's better than what you used before, fine that's a personal call.Let me repeat. That's a personal call.But the quote about mfd being unstable, on that I call BS.I've shot tethered and to cards with everything I've owned. Nikon D2x, D3, D700, Canon 1ds1, 2, 3, 1dx, Leaf Valeo, Aptus, Phase p30, p30+, p21+ and Leica (no tethering on the Leica) and (drum roll please).Nothing shot as stable, error free, tethered and to cf cards, with the stability of the Phase backs.I've shot the Phase backs with about every kind of Mac, back to the White 27" I-macs to the next to latest Imacs, to G5's and Intel towers, three versions of 17" powerbooks up to the latest thunderbolt 17".Early on had a few (by few I mean like three or four) problems due to some new but faulty firewire cords and had to learn to monitor the Contax battery use.C-1 Version three was almost crash proof, V4 early on had teething problems, but now is a rock, after that .............Nothing, Nada, not one brand or format did better than the Phase.Do you run clean computers, new firewire cords, backups on everything, fresh or new secondary drives, max ram, modern graphics cards. Are your computers clean, your cf cards formatted and dedicated to the specific cameras, fresh batteries, clean contacts?Did you personally know the software inside and out and/or have a dedicated tech? In a very heavy day of shooting, I might have one slowdown/freeze a day with the Phase 99.9% of the time it's low batteries on the camera. With our Canons and Nikons I average 2 freezes a day with DPP, or Nikon Capture or C-1.If I watch the Contax batteries I'm shocked if we have any slowdown in a week's heavy production.So what were your problems?IMOBC
by joshshinner » Fri Jan 20, 2012 10:43 amJust wondering how many other people were experiencing lock up problems?Locking up being where you press to release the shutter and the camera just freezes and locks up, and in order to get going again you have to either switch it off and on again, or remove the battery and drain power completely. It's annoying in a normal shoot, however if you have the camera locked off (ie for car photography) and you have to get the battery out, it is a complete nightmare. Especially seeing as the battery release on the V Grip is terrible and doesn't pop the battery out, so you either have to use a magnet to get it out, or tip the camera!This happens mainly in mirror up mode, however it does also happen on single and continuous modes. We've been telling Phase about this for almost 2 years and they still haven't solved it with new firmware. firmware on camera is 1.25 and we're using an IQ180.
by AnGy » Thu Jan 26, 2012 10:23 pmSame problem here.645 DF was used with a P40+ and now with an IQ180 and locks up sometimes one time over 10 actuations sometimes over 3 or 5 actuations. Update of firmware to version 1.2.5 did not change anything.
joshshinner » Fri Mar 02, 2012 10:47 amHey Drew,So still no firmware or any sight of anything to fix the immensely irritating lock up problems.... It has been over 2 years and it is mind blowing that Phase have not addressed this issue. And please don't say we haven't said anything about it, Phase were first made aware of our issues regarding this well over 18 months ago and we have been promised a fix with every new firmware, yet alas no fix. The cameras have also been back for repair in that time.Please tell me when this is going to be sorted?Not impressed. Still.
John232 » Sun Mar 11, 2012 12:17 amMy Phase One DF locks up randomly as well. The camera focuses and functions fine, but pressing the shutter button does nothing. Usually it does this for a just a frame or two about every 25-50 shots. I thought the issue might be a specific lens, but it does it with all my lenses ("D" versions, LS versions and 645 manual lenses). So I am ruling out lenses as the culprit. About 2 weeks ago the camera just refused to shoot and the batteries had to come out of the camera and back. That has never happened before.I think the issue might be the automatic switching between LS and FP, or something to do when the camera and/or back to come out of their power save modes, or it might be the orientation sensor - the problem seems to happen more frequently when shooting upwards (such as shooting a skyline or tree canopy immediately above me). Right now there are too many variables and the problem is too random for me to lay out a specific cause-effect sequence. The DF has firmware 1.25 and the P65+ has firmware 5.2.2. The most worrisome part is a random centerfold issue with the P65. I am pretty sure the shot (file) following lock-up has centerfold.I've reach out to my Phase dealer, hopefully he'll have some helpful feedback. My gut feeling is that there is something amuck with the DF body.
joshshinner » Mon Mar 12, 2012 11:01 amJohn232 wrote:Right now there are too many variables and the problem is too random for me to lay out a specific cause-effect sequence.I must say John, this is the most to the point and accurate review of the phase one camera, and it's exactly what I say to anyone asking me about it. And I completely feel your frustration... when something goes wrong, to start with it could be one of a dozen things, which when working under time pressure is beyond irritating. Hope you get your problem fixed....
by NNN634255317662300975 » Sun Apr 01, 2012 2:15 pmSame here.The shutter (in my LS lenses?) sticks shut at the rate of about 1 in 10 shots.Actually I just sent my body in and the shutter was replaced. But I'm still having the same problem.
by NN891992 » Thu Dec 06, 2012 10:24 pmHi thereis anyone still having a problem with thisboth my iq160 and p30+ on 2 different DF bodies and using different computers on capture one 6.4 and 7.01 shoot occasional frames at a recorded f1usually happens 1 frame in 100 sometimes a few frames in a rowcan happen after a pause or during continuos shootingbody and back firmware up to dateany ideas at all , hyper annoying when working with directing talent into a position.thanksSvenNN891992

by HEIKO121 » Tue Sep 25, 2012 10:59 amHello Drew,Since you lovked the discussion about jamming 80 mm lensesI had to open a new one. Yes I sold my Phase One equipment. It is not possible to work with it professionaly, as long as you do not take two lenses of the same kind with you.And regarding to the repair of the 80 mm lens I have tto tell that it dorsn't work after the repair. This causes me so much hassle and stress again cause i probably have to take it back. You claim that you can't help any further because I sold it, but perhaps you can tell me and the rest of the community how such help could look like? Perhaps I send you the still not working lens so you can prove yourself that I'm not telling ****** here and prove that phase One offers some service at least?Kind regardsHEIKO HELLWIG
by NN8850041 » Mon Feb 13, 2012 11:11 amI am onto my third 80mm LS Schneider lens.This weekend the shutter blades jammed closed and my camera was unusable.This is the third lens of the same model to do this.Phase One have replaced my lens every time but I am beginning to lose complete faith in the camera system?I am shooting in the Maldives early March and I can't afford to have my kit breaking down or out of action.The digital technician operating my camera and I were both at a loss to explain why the kit was breaking down so consistently.I am interested to hear from Phase One or anyone with similar experiences?thanksAntonyhttp://www.antonynobilo.com
by NN163027UL » Fri Mar 23, 2012 6:31 pmI had the same issue 2 weeks into the new lens. The dealer replaced the lens no questions asked but amazingly annoying. Now that new lens doesn't auto focus to infiniti. Need to bring it in to be fixed. WTF?!
by NNN634255317662300975 » Sun Apr 01, 2012 2:07 pmI have had very similar problems lately.During my last job, the shutter in the df body destroyed itselt while shooting.I rented a second body. Then the shutters in both my LS80mm and LS110mm would stick shut like once in 10 shots.They make a strange noise and then open back up. This went on during the whole shoot.Both the body and the lenses were one and a half months out of warranty.I sent the body in for repair and the shutter in the body was replaced at full charge.When I asked about the lenses, phase one's answer was I would have had to pay 350 for them to look at them, with no guarantee that they would find a fix. In which case the shutters would be replaced at full charge.That's about the worse service I've ever received in my life. And I'm stuck with two time bombs in my bag.Anyone else have this problem?
by NN159009UL4 » Mon Apr 02, 2012 2:15 amThe shutter on my DF body stuck closed after only 2500 cycles. It has been sent in for repair but frankly, I am hesitant to make any further additions to this system. My scheduled purchase of the 110 LS is on indefinite hold as I have again been forced to regress to my 1Ds III to complete an upcoming job. If P1 wants to survive upcoming Japanese competition they should take notice, provide excellent customer support and and meet any responsibility arising from their own manufacturing deficiency.
by HEIKO121 » Mon Sep 24, 2012 4:57 pmYou claim that the leaf shutter will work over 100000 actuations and do not repair mine after only 4000?kind of ridiculous isn´t it? And regarding to my new Nikon, there is a much bigger variety of lenses that you can carry with you and they do not cost a fortune. On top they do not cost fortunes for repairing them. And they do not sell me "Schneider" lenses made in Japan.
by klabton » Thu Dec 06, 2012 11:40 amHistory of my 80 LS lens..- repair after +/- 4k shoots (warranty)- locked again and replaced for a new one. (warranty)- shutter replace ( paid ) about year ago.- and the last one, lens locked. Today should arrive... (paid)(twice repaired shutter in body, once digital back)I have this gear 2,5 years.....I don't think, this lens has capacity to take 100k shoots. I don't even use leaf shutter. But still this lens locks after less than 20000 shots... I realize that, after all, the best solution for tethered shooting in studio. Much, much better service than Hass... Shooting in studio with D800 tethered is a little bit annoying...What can be done, to improve this system???
Technical issues with Phase One equipment reported/discussed on the Phase One forum designed for the reporting/discussion of technical issues. News at 11.Shall we go to the Nikon forum, Adobe forum, Apple forum and see if any one is reporting technical issues?
I try not to keep a synopsis on all of your posts, though the last one pretty much covered it all.You an expert surfer.Custom made recreational equipment.Beautiful Wife.Beautiful Kids.Beautiful Dogs.A List Clients and Subjects.Humanitarian that saves lives.All I see is the behavior of a bully.These type of brand bashing threads have become too strange even for me. I'm outta this type of talk.IMOBC

Statement in response to media speculation about ASADA investigations
The Manly Warringah Sea Eagles have received no formal request from the Australian Sports Anti-‐Doping Authority to interview players.
Sea Eagles General Manager David Perry met with players today and confirmed that ASADA has not identified any person at the Club that it wishes to interview.
"We have made it clear to ASADA from the outset that we will cooperate with them in every way and they have said only that they may want to question players and club staff as part of their wider investigation at some time," Mr Perry said.
The Club reiterates its complete faith in the programs and procedures in place during the period ASADA is investigating in Rugby League.
The Sea Eagles squad is focused solely on Sunday evening's blockbuster clash against Newcastle Knights at Brookvale Oval.
"This cloud has certainly been a big concern for everyone across the game but, as we saw from the opening round, our men are dedicated to getting on with the business of winning football matches," Perry said.
"That remains our primary focus."

So CES 2013 is finally under way. Well it actually kicks off in earnest tonight (UK time) with a lot of the big guys (Sony, Samsung etc al) unveiling their key new 2013 products.
A few companies, including some biggies, have already broken ranks and tipped us off about their latest gizmos. Here then are the best 12 products we have seen so far, and they include some huge smartphones, an outrageous tablet that can moonlight as a coffee table, some clever new cameras and more.

Lenovo IdeaCentre Horizon Table PC - world's biggest tablet?
The IdeaCentre Horizon Table PC from Lenovo is a beast of thing. The world's largest tablet (if you can call it that) so far, it is a 27-inch touchscreen PC/tablet hybrid that's as much a coffee table surface as it is a computer. It is a giant Windows 8 slate and you can fold its built-in stand away to lay the device flat, acting like a giant tabletop tablet. You can also carry it around, but at 7.7KG I guess you won't be going too far. It is due in the spring and will cost around £1,500

The FA announced on Saturday that it would not be deducting points from Rangers over the charges against the club and instead imposed a fine of £875,000, meaning the club were confirmed as npower Championship title-winners.
Palios believes the independent regulatory commission should not have had any FA board members on it, telling BBC Radio 5 Live: "If you have got senior members of the FA board on this, will they be looking over their shoulder to the potential financial consequence (of a points deduction) for the FA themselves?"
"They shouldn't be prosecutor, judge and jury."
Palios also raised the issue of the timing of the commission and the announcement and suggested a regulation could be introduced to make sure such matters were dealt with more quickly in future.
"If the reason for the delay was trying to fit people's diaries together then overall there is a need for regulation," he said.
Palios also stood by his assertion before the FA announcement that there was a precedent for a points deduction - something which had angered QPR manager Neil Warnock because of the timing.
"Based on the charges and based on the sanctions available to the FA there was a precedent for a points deduction," Palios said.
"They were not found guilty of the (relevant) charges."

WÜSTHOF – a family business since 1814
The name Wüsthof first appeared as a factory in the records of the Duchy of Berg in 1814. It was in that year that the family's ancestor, Abraham Wüsthof, founded his "factory for fine steel wares", which is now known as the Dreizackwerk. The business has remained in the family ever since. Today, Harald Wüsthof and Viola Wüsthof is the seventh generation of the family to manage WÜSTHOF DREIZACKWERK.
"The Dreizackwerk has always withstood the ebb and flow of world history," wrote Hugo Eduard Wüsthof, born in 1894, in his review of the years 1912 to 1932.
Over the past 200 years, our products have established a reputation above all for their quality and functionality.

House Votes to Authorize Boehner to Sue Obama
Lawsuit Would Allege President Overstepped His Legal Authority, Citing Alteration to Affordable Care Act
WASHINGTON—House lawmakers voted Wednesday to authorize Speaker John Boehner to file suit against President Barack Obama on a complaint that he had overstepped his legal authority, setting up a possible constitutional test and giving both parties a potent campaign issue to take home for the five-week congressional recess.
In a 225-201 vote, the House told Mr. Boehner (R., Ohio) to move ahead with the suit. House GOP leaders have said they would focus the suit on the White House's decision last year to give employers a one-year...

Welker unlikely to play against Chargers
Dec. 09, 2013
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Wes Welker is unlikely to suit up for Denver's game Thursday against San Diego after leaving Sunday's win over Tennessee with his second concussion in four games.
Speaking to reporters Monday, coach John Fox didn't rule out his receiver but said Welker's health is the top priority and he would go through the standard NFL protocol for players who have endured concussions.
"The league is pretty strict," Fox said. "We're obviously concerned with any player's health, whatever that is."
Though there are no hard-and-fast guidelines for returning, the best-case scenario for players who pass their post-concussion tests early in the week is to return to light practice Thursday, full practice Friday and be listed as probable for the game.
Welker will be under more scrutiny because this is his second concussion since Nov. 17.
On Sunday, he was going low to catch a pass when Titans safety George Wilson hit him in the helmet. Fox said he hadn't watched a replay, so he couldn't give his opinion about the hit.
"These things happen. You don't like to see them happen," Fox said. "Again, we'll have the player's safety as our No. 1 priority."
Jacob Tamme would be a candidate to substitute for Welker as slot receiver.

About two years ago I presented a talk to a couple of SQL Server user groups where I explained in general terms how SQL Server executes queries. I explained how to read showplan and how some of the most common operators (such as index scans and seeks, joins, and aggregation) actually work. I received a lot of positive feedback from these talks and I've decided to try to capture some of these topics in this blog. If you have questions or comments, I'm very interested to hear what you think and what you'd like me to write about and I'll do my best to respond.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Khloe Kardashian's first outing as the new co-host of "The X Factor" helped boost the show's audience by 30 percent, yet the reality star got mixed reviews for a nipple-baring debut that made headlines - but many TV critics found awkward.
Kardashian, 28, best known for starring with socialite sisters Kim and Kourtney in "Keeping Up with the Kardashians," shocked some viewers by wearing a sheer purple blouse without a bra on Wednesday's first live episode of the TV singing contest.
"I think the air conditioning is on high tonight. It's very distracting," judge and producer Simon Cowell quipped on the show, apparently referring to the glimpses of nipple.
But Kardashian was less impressive in her hosting duties.
The Washington Post said Kardashian "came across like the novice she is, shouting her lines despite the mic clutched in her hand and making awkward small talk with contestants and judge and executive producer Simon Cowell."
Nevertheless, Kardashian brought more eyeballs to the show. Some 7.4 million viewers watched "The X Factor" on Fox television, according to early ratings data, up some 30 percent from last week's 5.7 million and a 13 percent increase in the 18-49 age group most coveted by advertisers.
Kardashian was Cowell's personal pick for the job as part of his efforts to revamp the singing contest after a disappointing first season. But the reality star's lack of experience had already raised eyebrows, and "X Factor" has often drawn a smaller audience than last year.
Cowell told reporters earlier this week that Kardashian "wants to prove (to) anyone who doubted her that she's capable of doing the job ... she really has got a fun personality."
The New York Daily News called Kardashian a "surprisingly good host," while The Hollywood Reporter said "both Kardashian and (co-host Mario) Lopez seemed at ease in their new roles."
The Hollywood Gossip website, however, said Kardashian was "every bit as boring and awkward as we imagined she would be."
"The X Factor" is broadcast on Fox, a unit of News Corp.

The whole process was quick and easy. The price was fair and the service was excellent. They removed my old roof and installed a new one in one day. I came back home and the yard was so clean, I wouldn't have been able to tell anyone was there if I hadn't seen them working that morning. They use top of the line products and provide all around excellent service...and the lifetime warranty doesn't hurt anything either. I would use them again and again.

Renew Homes representative was in our neighborhood knocking on doors to see if anyone was interested in any of their services. We were in the market for a new roof and we spoke with the representative and he set up an appointment for a salesman to visit. The appointment was scheduled for the next week. Matthias was our salesman, he was prompt and professional. Mathias gave us their sales pitch and offered to survey our roof. He even inspected in both our attics so that he could note any damaged wood. Matthias was so good in his sales pitch we agreed to have them replace our roof the same night. Once the job was scheduled Renew homes kept in contact with us informing us of the schedule date while watching the weather reports. On the morning of scheduled replacement it rained for about 30-40 minutes. The workers had removed some of the shingles before the rained. The workers assured us that they had covered everything and they did. After the rain stopped they continued to work replacing our roof that day. They did a great job and cleaned after themselves. I highly recommend ReNew Homes for any home improvement projects. I will certainly use them in the future for our up coming window replacements.

Renew Home Design did an outstanding job on our new roof every step of the way. From the initial meeting, all the way through the install. You won't go wrong if you go with Renew. The best customer service I have ever had from any service provider!! Highly recommend!

I needed a new roof for my home. The initial representative came to our home, and explained everything in detail. I was very impressed as he walked us through the process. The services Renew Home Design, Inc. provided was outstanding. They completed the work in a timely manner. I was also impressed that they were able to work out a plan to fit my budget. The President, Jared Arminger is personable and cares about his customers. I highly recommend Renew Home Design, Inc. if you are in need of a new roof.

We had the pleasure of meeting and working with Justin to find an affordable option for a new roofing system. We have no regrets! The house looks beautiful and everyday, throughout the day, we enjoy driving up to see what feels like our "new" home. Every person we encountered from Justin to Taffy to the installers were professional and courteous. We really feel like part of the Renew family!Update: 8/1/17 We are still loving our new roof after one year but have been majorly disappointed in the lack of attention received from Justin in trying to resolve a couple business issues. The song and dance about becoming a part of the "Renew Family" only lasts through signing on the dotted line. Once the installers leave that will also be the last you hear from them. So provided you have no business related issues, you will be very happy with the product but don't expect the great customer service to extend past the roof installation.

The staff at ReNew Home Designs recently did a superb job replacing my old roof, gutters, downspouts, and guards. Their staff arrived on time and courteously answered all my questions. Taking a break only for lunch, they completed the roof tear-off; replaced several sheets of rotted plywood on the roof and rotted wood near the chimney; and completed the new roof in one day. Additional staff replaced the gutters, downspouts, and guards in a couple of hours a few days later. In both cases, the staff cleaned up all litter before leaving my yard. The superior GAF installation materials and procedures not only created a water-tight barrier for my home, but also enhanced its curb–appeal. As an extremely pleased customer, I give ReNew Home Designs the highest possible rating for its roof replacement work. Cheryl, Derwood, MD, 20855, April 27, 2017

I will highly recommend ReNew Home Designs. The process was smooth from the first presentation through the end of the project. Many options available including financing. The crew was very professional the days they work on the location. At the end of the day everything was clean like nothing happened before.

ReNew did an outstanding job replacing my roof. The whole process was quick and painless and they did a great job with clean up afterwards. They really took the time to explain everything in detail and make sure I was satisfied with the work. My new roof looks and functions great. I would gladly hire them again.

I have never met a more committed company than renew. We had a leak in our roof in our newly purchased home. Only 2 weeks living in the home we had to do our roof?!? We had originally signed a contract with another company to do our roof, had no contact with them for 3 weeks and were desperate for help! Renew came to our home Monday, priced us lower than the crooks we originally signed with, had our products ordered by Tuesday, delivered by Wednesday, and by Thursday Evening we had a new roof! Talk about no delay! NOT EVEN A WEEK'S WAIT! Amazing!! Amazing!! Amazing people! Thank you!!

The workers were very friendly and cooperative. Also, they did an excellent job of cleaning up at the end of their work day. The roof looks very nice. Only 4 stars because I'm just not a fan of all the back and forth about the price but to their credit, we did reach a price that was within my budget. Yes, I would recommend this company for a new roof.

Our new roof looks great and we felt they did a great job! The project manager that came and did the sales pitch was very knowledgeable and didn't apply unnecessary pressure for us to book that same day. There was a little bit of confusion when it come to booking the day they came to do the install. We had heard that they were delayed due to bad weather and were going to need to push back our appointment, but in the end they showed up and completed the work on the original day scheduled. This was great, although we were not expecting them so therefore were not at home when they departed to do the final walk through. All in all though they did a great job!

Polaris released some interesting info this past week to its stockholders, perhaps the highlight of which was how the Minnesota-based company views its acquisition of the Indian Motorcycle brand. Disclosing a brief summary of its plans, it's clear that Polaris aims to go after the heavy-cruiser segment with a two-pronged approach, much in the same manner as we postulated back on Wednesday after news of the acquisition broke.
More important than stroking our own egos, two pieces of interesting insight came from Polaris's SEC filing 8-K filing. First was a glimpse into what the purchasing price of Indian could be, as a slide to investors shows Indian's 2010 revenue as being $11 million, which would peg a baseline asking price of about $9 million, though the perceived brand value could raise that price. The second juicy morsel is how Polaris sees Indian fitting in with Victory, showing the potential of tripling Polaris's motorcycle sales in the future.

Senior Garrett Cooper became the first Auburn player selected in the 2013 Major League Baseball First Year Player Draft when the Milwaukee Brewers selected him in the sixth round on Friday.
A first baseman, Cooper was pick No. 182 overall and extended Auburn's run of MLB selections to 39 consecutive drafts, dating to the 1975 season.
"This is probably one of the better feelings I have had in my life," Cooper said. "My advisor called me and the Brewers took me right on the spot. I didn't even have time to think about it."
A Second Team All-SEC selection in 2013, Cooper finished the season hitting .354, which was seventh among SEC players at the end of the regular season. He also finished the year among the league leaders in overall slugging percentage (.540, sixth), on base percentage (.481, second), home runs (seven, tied for seventh), total bases (102, tied for 13th) and walks (37, tied for third). His on base percentage ranks ninth all-time in Auburn history for a single season.
"After my junior year and getting hurt at the end of the year I wanted to put on weight and thought that would pay dividends in my senior year," Cooper said. "I think it helped, hitting over .350 with seven bombs. We ended the season on a sour note but for myself I felt like I had a great season and that showed with the draft this year."
A transfer from El Camino Community College prior to the 2012 season, the Manhattan Beach, Calif., native hit .340 during his two-year stay at Auburn. In 105 games he collected 21 doubles, one triple and 12 home runs, driving in 68 RBI and scoring 66 runs. He finished his career with a .503 slugging percentage and a .452 on base percentage. Defensively he had a career .989 fielding percentage.
Cooper is Auburn's highest draft pick since Dan Gamache was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates with pick No. 182 in the 2011 MLB Draft.
Milwaukee's selection of Cooper marked the first time he has been drafted in his career.
Milwaukee had selected five Auburn players prior to the Cooper selection: LHP Monte Sharp (1965, 22nd Rd.), LHP Richard Nance (1970, 2nd Rd. June Secondary Phase), RHP Mark Chapman (1987, 18th Rd.), RHP Scott Sullivan (1992, 39th Rd. – Did Not Sign) and IF Hunter Morris (2010, 4th Rd.).

So has there been any good signings thus far for next season? I follow college football very little but I pull for the Canes. It just seems to me that it's been a while since they've recruited an explosive playmaker.
Coming to an ACC court near you.
Duke Johnson is the epitome of an explosive playmaker. It's a pretty good class, and should finish with 32+ recruits, gotta wait til NSD to see what it ultimately looks like though cause the NCAA has yet to lay the hammer down.
I think our WRs will be fine. Hurns, Dorsett, Lewis (frosh) ain't too bad. Our D-line just got ransacked though. We desperately need to get some JUCO DTs in this class. The whole defense is probably going to be a mess honestly.
Greg Garmon hasn't committed yet but he is down to Iowa and UM.

http://s27.photobucket.com/albums/c1...view=slideshowMy name is Leo Ramos; I am a graphic design student at the U and this was my semesters work in my class. I have passed this on to UM officials and now its in their hands. I have already trademarked the designs and now feel comfortable sharing them. I AM NOT THE PERSON DESIGNING THE UNIFORMS THIS IS JUST MY PERSONAL WORK.
Not me btw...
Apparently Burgess' offer was pulled. In other news, it looks like Bush is leaning towards us right now, which is shocking to me, once I saw that pic of him and Saban I thought it was a done deal.
EDIT: nvm
names mixed up

Read some updates on the UA All-Ameircan game practice...
-Duke Johnson by far the best runningback there.
-AJL had the highlight catch of the day.
-Preston Dewey struggling taking snaps from center.
Forgot to say Greg Garmon chose Iowa at the Semper Fidelis game.
Lucas Thompson to ECU, a grades issue apparently.
Deon Bush announcing tomorrow. Some say he's leaning to Miami now that Bama got Collins, others are predicting Auburn.

What role do boards (and board members) play in making diversity a strategic business imperative for the organization? What myths about the lack of women on boards have been busted?

Morning Five: 05.26.10 EditionPosted by rtmsf on May 26th, 2010
- Vegas Watch aggregates seven pre-preseason top 25s, including yours truly's. Duke is a clear #1, but Michigan State at #2 and a lot of teams with serious question marks (K-State, Villanova, Pitt, Gonzaga) populate the rest of the top ten. We had Butler (#8) and Georgetown (#10) in our top ten, but few others did. Thanks for doing this, VW.
- More transfer news — a while back we suggested that the Wear Twins (David and Travis) would end up at UCLA, and that was confirmed yesterday with the announcement that the SoCal-raised pair will be heading to Westwood. They'll have three years of eligibility remaining, beginning in the 2011-12 season. All we want to know is where was Stanford on this one (remember the Collins and Lopez twins)? Meanwhile, UNC filled one of their open inside positions with Alabama transfer Justin Knox, who has already graduated and will be eligible to play next season for Roy Williams. This is a substantial coup for UNC in that they were facing a season with few experienced bigs (only the rail-thin John Henson and Tyler Zeller return inside), and this addition will help bridge the gap until Williams can bring in some help.
- Finishing in the top four spots of the Big East regular season will not hold as much meaning as it did the last two years, as conference officials yesterday voted to do away with the double-bye system in the Big East Tournament. In the new format, MSG's Tuesday and Wednesday sessions will feature first round games using a traditional 1/16, 2/15, etc., format. For some reason, we're less excited about this change.
- Gregg Doyel thinks that Oklahoma basketball might deserve the death penalty, but taking his typically grumpy stance (we love it, btw), he doesn't think that much of anything will come to pass.
- Duke's national championship team has plans to visit the White House tomorrow. No word on whether Coach K will give President Obama some beef over picking against his Devils in the regionals.
