Filling about 1,200 orders every day, seven days a week is an indication of how busy LULUS.COM is.
That also means the Chico Internet business is space-hungry, which is why this week's sad Friday closure of WAKEFIELD and SONS GLASS is an opportunity for LuLus.com.
The Chico-based Internet retailer that specializes in women's clothes, shoes and accessories is in the process of purchasing the glass business' location at Humboldt Avenue and Main Street. The property is in escrow.
Already employing 94, Lulus.com will likely be adding more employees, according to partner COLLEEN WINTER, who owns the business with mom DEBRA CANNON.
How about that — a mother-daughter success story!
Wakefield's timing is good for Lulus.com, which is actually busier than expected, Winter said.
The apparel retailer, which moved its Internet business to Humboldt Avenue about four years ago, has been inching into empty spaces along the street as they surface.
Lulus.com is purchasing in larger quantities, Winter told me, hence the need for more space.
The Wakefield space will be used for office and warehousing "as soon as possible," adding about 6,000 square feet to their 20,000-square-foot domain.
Winter said a warehouse consultant will be coming in to redesign the Lulu's process with the new space and efficiency in mind.
Never heard of Lulu's? Well, you might be the wrong shopping demographic. If you love magazines like Seventeen, People, O, Shape, Cosmo, or Redbook, you know — and likely have seen — Lulu's fashions.
If you're a guy, sorry…
Be sure to stop in and say bye to BETTY and STEVE WAKEFIELD of Wakefield before they close on Friday. The couple told me it was a combination of factors, including the desire to see their out-of-town family more often. That's a little hard for a small business.
I have to doff my hat to Betty, because I have learned a ton about south Chico's history from her. Maybe south Chico isn't the right term. Maybe mid-Chico, lower downtown? Nope, for the Wakefields, it will always be The Junction.
In early days, stagecoaches would come down the Humboldt Road, into Chico and into The Junction, where roads crossed, and overnight accommodations and services were plentiful.
Wakefield described the area as bordered by Main and East Ninth Street, Broadway and Humboldt Avenue. It had to be large so the stagecoaches could turn around and unhitch.
Now that area is morphing into another type of destination — arts and entertainment. Several residents and business owners there had a vision that is slowly evolving.
Find art at IRON MOUNTAIN LEATHER, 1078 GALLERY, ALL FIRED UP ceramics, EARTHEN IRON metal art, and PFC LIGHTING with cold-glass artwork.
Sad to say that longtime BUSTOLINI'S DELI closed there last year, but I understand there is a new restaurant/bar in the works for that location.
As construction starts on a new building in Redding for DICK'S SPORTING GOODS, I thought it would be a good time for an update about the proposed Chico one.
Dick's is going into Chico Mall, in the long-vacant anchor location once occupied by Troutman's.
Dick's is heralded as one fabulous place by the couple of people I know who've been to one.
For a peek, the closest one in California is in Modesto, one close in Nevada, and one in Eugene, Oregon.
Originally announced for early 2013, the move into Chico is penciled for August now. There's no explanation for the delay.
The Redding store, according to the Redding Record-Searchlight, is expected to open in October.
An email and phone call got no response from the Pennsylvania-based company about more Chico details.
However, the company is taking job applications for a number of management positions here.
On its website are listed managers' positions for softlines, hardlines, golf professional and store manager. The ground-level employee hiring will likely come later.
Just a note to job hunters, Chico Mall's website — www.chicomall.com — lists all stores that have job openings, which besides Dick's when I looked are Spencer's, Chico's, and the mall itself. Jobs range from sales associate to security guard.

OAKLAND — A protest at the Barack Obama campaign headquarters in downtown Oakland ended peacefully late Thursday, with a handful of arrests but no reports of violence.
At least 60 protesters rallied at the building at 17th Street and Telegraph Avenue around 5:30 p.m., when police were summoned to guard all entrances. But seven protesters found their way inside the building, linked arms and refused to leave, police said.
Officers unsuccessfully negotiated with the group for several hours to leave the building, but they remained there until 9:12 p.m., when one of them voluntarily decided to leave. The remaining six were arrested for trespassing, police said.
Police secured the building and the remaining protesters outside dispersed peacefully. Police did not use force and there were no reported injuries to the protesters or officers.
Organizers of the protest said it was to demand justice for Bradley Manning, the Army private accused of leaking state secrets to WikiLeaks. The 24-year-old Manning has been indicted on 22 counts of providing sensitive information to the website.
Organizers said similar protests took place in Seattle, Tacoma and Portland.
The Obama headquarters building in Oakland had previously been targeted by protesters, who broke a window there earlier this month during a march after the city refused to grant a permit to allow a demonstration at the city's First Friday event in downtown.

This question caused quite a "stir":
(Only 10k users can view this question as it is deleted.)
I wanted to know How true is this statement : "If you want to get marry, find cute girl and get married while you are in college becuase once you start working in Software Industy, you will hardly find one"?
Also, is this true universally or only for some geographical locations ?
It's been deleted by a moderator, but I have mixed feelings about it. I voted to close it for not being "programming-related", but after seeing the comments, it occurred to me that it WAS related to the software development industry, and lots of young developers have these concerns.
There are many humor community questions on stackoverflow, so why not this one? It wasn't 100% politically correct but where do you draw the line?
Followup question: can a question be voted to be undeleted? And if so, is it appropriate to do so? (without risking an offended moderator)

Lower Lewis Leniency
I have an irrational but very real fear when around water with electronics. For some reason they're just drawn to it and love to play in it. This new area to explore, Lower Lewis River Falls in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest, was a good test of that fear.
After taking the steep trail down to the water, I inched closer to her flowing locks, trying not to be too forward and fall head over heels. Never underestimating my footing on the slick rock, I made it to the edge just before this drop off to the pool and admired her beauty from a safe distance. Thankfully, she didn't take anything from me and we'll probably be seeing each other again soon!
Box Canyon of the Cowlitz
Spent some time exploring my new home when we first arrived in Washington and took a trip to Mt. Rainier National Park. The dense fog and mist provided a simplifying aspect to the scenes as well as an element of atmosphere and mood.
As far as this shot, I had to maneuver my tripod head to dangle over the edge of the bridge to fill up as much of the frame as I could - strap still around my neck of course.
Curtain Call at Cedar Creek
Cedar Creek Grist Mill is considered a classic location in Washington. Many photographers will flock to this area for its incredible blend of features. With so much to see it can be daunting to decide on what to shoot. I snapped a couple from the covered bridge above me but realized I wasn't offering much of a view different from what anyone else can simply walk up to - basically a postcard vantage point.
After walking along Cedar Creek and photographing the leaf-laden rocks, I found myself faced once again with the mill. Deciding to test my luck with water one last time, I walked down to a point I felt comfortable without my camera to make sure my footing was substantial in knee deep water. I went back to dry land, grabbed my tripod, placed it solidly in the water close to this point, then walked around and assumed my position, eventually bringing the tripod to where you see here. I can't stress enough how nervous this made me. Water and cameras do not mix with me and I'm constantly on edge with this vision of everything crashing into or being hit with water, both of which have happened to me. However if I'm not willing to face it, I'll never get over it, so into the water I go. To make things even more interesting, salmon are swimming upstream right next to me, their random tail flaps and jumps making sure I'm real aware of my surroundings. This is literally the last photo I shot before leaving the mill and it's not often that the last photo is even considered for showing, because it's usually only photographed in sheer desperation.
Cascade Cathedral
Proxy Falls is one of the most impressive waterfalls I've witnessed to date. I can understand why its so often photographed, yet it should be witnessed in person to truly understand it's grandeur. The hike leading to it is just as fun as the destination, building a great suspense with a small peek of the falls along the way.
Ticket to Paradise
Decided somewhat late one night that I wanted to catch a sunset at Paradise in Mt. Rainier National Park. With a 9:05ish sunset and a two hour drive to the location, that gave me roughly an hour to explore, find something that peaks my interest and then fire away.
Visions of meadows, rife with wildflowers and calm glacial lakes with Rainier reflected, danced around in my head. However my half-ass research was proving to me that I did not plan it out very well. So upon arrival I just basically ran around the various trails, letting the 6000' altitude take it's toll on my inexperienced body. Rainier's prominence never presented itself in a way I would have liked, wildflowers were scant and clouds covered the top of the mountain at the peak of light. Walking around somewhat defeated but realizing I could always come back again, I enjoyed the calm and quiet evening listening to the constant, steady wind whipping around Rainier and throwing the clouds every which way.
As I was walking back toward the parking lot, this small, still stream looked enticing so I strayed a bit from the path and walked around checking out it's curves... Rainier's top began to show and I looked for an area to reflect it and was fortunate enough to also have this great S curve to boot! Then began the fun part. Trying every single damn tripod height, position and camera orientation I possibly could in a short window of time until something made me go, "oh cool". Hopefully you can look at this and say "oh cool" as well.
Rainier Romp
Made an afternoon out of a trip to Paradise with my sister and her friend, but of course in PNW fashion, Rainier decides to stay socked in. It would have been nice to see her today but thankfully the meadows and streams gave us a somewhat eery but tranquil and relaxing atmosphere to enjoy.
Burning Fog
I sat in the back of the Jeep and enjoyed the stillness of the lake and watched as the fog rolled in, while trying to get rid of my morning breath. The sun was low on the horizon and I could see a faint glimpse of it pushing through the distant treeline. I grabbed my camera and headed down to the water, hoping that maybe Rainier would actually appear this time. A father and son photographer were exiting their car shortly after me hoping for the same.
Once again, she didn't show up, but the advancing fog and diffused sunlight to the right of her was a treat in itself.
Before this point, since the fog was so thick, most other people had moved on, yet for myself and the other two onlookers, we were given a great show simply for waiting.
Purple Mountain Majesty
One of the most photographed viewpoints in the Tetons and for good reason. This particular morning the peaks went through quite a few costume changes donning many different hues and shades. However a little before the sun officially rose, this 25 second exposure brought out some incredible light. Also visiting in the off-season ensured fewer people making it more enjoyable to be there.
Middle Mashel Falls
These lovely but dangerous falls are just a short 45 minute drive from my place and provide just the right escape when a quick nature fix is needed.
Morning After The Meteors
A beautiful clear evening spent photographing the Perseids meteor shower turned into a lovely clear morning spent photographing the sunrise above the White River Valley.

Newcomers soak up Honda Opening Night atmosphere
TORONTO -- Mark Buehrle had the itch, but all he could do was watch from his seat in the dugout.
Here were 48,857 fans, clad in attire donning the names of Blue Jays past -- David Eckstein, Aaron Hill, John McDonald, A.J. Burnett and Gene Tenace, to name a few -- and filling the open air of the Rogers Centre with resonating chants of "Let's go Blue Jays" before the season's inaugural pitch. The sellout crowd overwhelmed Jose Reyes with support when the shortstop strolled to the batter's box to lead off the bottom of the first.
And yet, Buehrle, one of five players acquired by Toronto in a blockbuster trade in November, couldn't participate on the field. The veteran southpaw is scheduled to pitch on Thursday, following fellow newcomer R.A. Dickey and Brandon Morrow in the rotation.
"I got goose bumps when they were doing the lineups and cheering," Buehrle said. "It's one of those things where you want to go out there and pitch, but you have to wait your turn."
Reyes and his new lineup cohorts could only treat the Toronto fans to one run in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Indians. The Blue Jays mustered just four hits, including one apiece by offseason additions Melky Cabrera and Emilio Bonifacio. Cabrera, who inked a two-year pact with the club in November, scored the team's lone run.
Colby Rasmus recalled his first contest with Toronto, which came after the Blue Jays acquired him in a July 2011 trade with the Cardinals. The outfielder suggested that with so many new players in the fold, it may take some time for this team to gel.
"It's not easy," Rasmus said. "People are expecting so much, but we have a long season to go. Everyone will settle in and we'll be all right."
The Blue Jays renovated their roster over the winter, highlighted by a 12-player swap with the Marlins. In that exchange, Toronto acquired Buehrle, Reyes, Bonifacio, pitcher Josh Johnson and catcher John Buck. The club later seized Dickey in a deal with the Mets, and sprinkled in the signings of Cabrera and infielder Maicer Izturis, who, like Reyes, went 0-for-3 on Tuesday.
"We have everything," Reyes said. "We have speed. We have power. We have pitching. We just need to put it together on the field. If we put it together, we'll be fine. It's just the first game."
For Reyes, that first game evoked dreams he had as a youngster, when he would conjure up visions of playing for a Major League team on Opening Day. He fulfilled that goal with the Mets in 2005. He experienced Opening Day in a fresh setting again last season after joining the much-hyped Marlins.
On Tuesday, for the second straight year, he soaked in his new settings. He's hoping for familiar surroundings next April.
"I want to stay here for a couple more Opening Days," Reyes said, laughing.
Should Toronto's lineup mesh and the team perform up to its vaulted expectations, perhaps the gear sporting the names of departed Blue Jays will find its way into storage, to be replaced by new names and numbers.
If Tuesday's contest is any indication, Toronto certainly appreciates its offseason influx of talent.
"This place was loud today," Reyes said. "Hopefully it can be like that every single day, because we're going to win a lot of ballgames."

By Tom Brown
MIAMI, Nov 7 (Reuters) - Americans gave President Barack Obama a second term in office, but it still wasn't clear early on Wednesday whether the president won the key battleground state of Florida.
The vote in the state, which introduced the terms "hanging chads" and "butterfly ballots" to the masses in its historic 2000 presidential election, was too close to call long after Republican challenger Mitt Romney conceded his loss.
Early Wednesday morning Obama was edging out Romney by about 45,000 votes, or 0.53 percentage points, out of a total of 8.27 million votes cast in Florida, with about 99 percent of the votes counted.
"It's 1:42 in the morning and I just heard there are still people voting in Miami-Dade County," tweeted Chris Cate, spokesman for Florida's Secretary of State, who is responsible for elections. "Kudos to their commitment to voting!"
The head of elections for Florida's Miami-Dade County, which accounts for about 10 percent of the state's 12 million registered voters, said final results would not be available until Wednesday afternoon.
Until then, it may not be totally clear whether Obama won the state, which he carried in 2008.
At one church in Miami hundreds of voters were still in line when polls were due to close at 7 p.m.
"I believe that Obama is doing a good job and he's going to do a better job," said Michele Adriaanse, 59, who arrived to vote at 6.30 p.m. and finally cast her ballot shortly before midnight. "If we don't give him the chance, things will go back to how they were," she added.
Miami-Dade Supervisor of Elections Penelope Townsley told reporters the delay was due to "an extremely high volume of absentee ballots" and because long lines forced some precincts to remain open hours after their official closing time.
Florida accounts for 29 of the 270 votes in the electoral college a candidate needs to win the presidency. That is more than any other swing state, and by many accounts the fourth-largest state was a must-win for Romney.
Most recent polls had given Romney an edge over the incumbent in Florida, where the economic recovery has been slower than in other states and long-term unemployment has reached record highs.
But registered Democrats outnumber registered Republicans in Florida by about 5 percentage points and Romney faced multiple headwinds in the state.
A plan by Romney's vice presidential running mate, U.S. Representative Paul Ryan, to change the Medicare health insurance program for seniors was among the factors often cited as holding back Romney's campaign in the retiree-heavy state.
He also suffered from an inability to make inroads among Hispanic voters, outside of the state's conservative Cuban-American community.
Florida propelled former President George W. Bush to a wafer-thin victory in 2000 when he won the state by 537 votes.
Complaints about voting procedures, long lines to cast ballots, restrictions on early voting and some possible irregularities have been heard repeatedly across Florida. There have been no claims of anything widespread or problematic enough to cast doubt on the credibility of the Florida outcome.
It also was not immediately whether U.S. Representative Allen West - the firebrand Republican lawmaker known for his blistering attacks on Obama and other Democrats - had won one of the country's most closely watched congressional races.
West, a darling of the conservative Tea Party movement, had amassed one of the largest campaign war chests among House Republicans. His known supporters included organizations like Americans for Prosperity, the conservative political advocacy group funded by the billionaire Koch brothers.
But he faced a tough re-election challenge against Democrat Patrick Murphy, who had hammered the first-term Republican for the intransigence that led to gridlock in Washington.
Early Wednesday morning, West, 51, was trailing by 2,000 votes out of the 318,000 ballots cast.
Murphy, a 29-year-old businessman and political newcomer, had strong backing from party headquarters and was one of the best-funded Democratic challengers in the country.
A certified public accountant whose father runs a construction company in Miami, Murphy turned the race into a referendum on West, calling the Republican an extremist member of a "do-nothing" Congress.
The battle in Florida's new 18th district was seen as a test of whether a high-profile - some say polarizing - conservative could win one of the biggest swing districts in a perennial swing state.

Hey ya'll time for another drawing lesson, and yes, this is another elemental dragon everyone keep bugging me for. Though, I've gotta say, this isn't really my best like the Ice dragon was, but it should suffice. I spent a lot of time trying to figure out something perfect for a dark dragon or a dragon of shadows. Therefore, I added wisps of shadow seering off the body to give it a darkly feel. The dragon itself took me 2 hours, which wasn't as bad as most of my tattoo work. If it wasn't for my Cintiq 12wx, I would have spent double the hours on it. Take your time while you draw this creature, there's a lot of proportional vows to pay attention to, like the face, wings, and the body. Try to refrain from making parts of the body smaller than what they should be by turning your paper upside down. Anyways, thanks for viewing and stay tuned for the Light dragon!!

Grilling season is still going strong, and you were no doubt wondering whatever happened to all that prime beef Lady Gaga wore at last week's MTV Video Music Awards.
The outrageous "Pokerface" singer's dress was comprised of 50 pounds worth of all sorts of cuts of raw beef, presumably allowing her to make some sort of important statement that was lost on most of us. But allowing the meat to rot in a closet after the show would only further enrage vegetarians and anger meat lovers as well.
Well, it isn't going on a grill and it isn't exactly going to rot, but you can decide whether it is being wasted.
U.S. & World
"The dress will go through a process where it becomes a sort of 'jerky,' " the designer, Franc Fernandez, told E! Online. It will be "archived" for posterity, he said.
Fernandez told MTV Style that he bought 50 pounds of meat and designed the dress over three days, refrigerating it in between sessions.
"The meat dries out, rather than rotting," he said. "But it shouldn't be worn again."And he's not planning on designing another one. "There's not going to be meat dresses in the future."

Nats beef up player evaluation system
WASHINGTON -- The Nationals on Thursday announced a new partnership with Bloomberg Sports to design "a state-of-the-art player evaluation system" for the team's baseball operations department.
General manager Mike Rizzo expressed excitement about the new system, which will combine scouting data, video and statistics. Rizzo described it as, "like our current database, microwaved."
"We did a lot of research on it, and I think it's a valuable tool for us," Rizzo said. "It's incredibly comprehensive and it's something that's easy access.
"I think it's probably more an ease of application than it is more information. We've always had this information, but we had to grab it from different barrels. This is all one-stop shopping. … It's incredible."
The team's scouts will be able to access the new system from their laptops, iPads and smart phones.
"We have some veteran guys who are a little intimidated by it, but if I can figure it out, they'll be able to figure it out," Rizzo said.

Researcher Uses Attack Email to Modify Network Router Settings
A security researcher has come up with an attack that would allow malicious adversaries to remotely compromise victims' internal networks just by tricking them into opening up an innocuous looking email on their iPhone, iPad, or Mac devices.
The specially crafted emails took advantage of a functionality in Apple products that loads images from remote servers by default in emails and the fact that most users either never bother to change the router's default password or select weak passwords, Bogdan Calin, a security researcher, wrote on the Acunetix blog. The attack executes as soon as the victim opens the email; there is no need for the victim to click on anything, according to the blog post.
In the attack, Calin changed the DNS server in the victim's router settings to an IP address under his control. By tricking victims into opening emails with an invisible 1x1 pixel image, Calin was able to access the router's settings on their internal networks, according to the post.
"The victim receives an email—when the email is opened, the internal network is compromised," Calin wrote.
Embedded Image as an Attack Vector
Calin initially tested the Asus RT-N16 and N56U routers, and later confirmed the attack also succeeded against the TL-WR841N router from TP-Link and Arcor EasyBox A600. These routers used basic authentication to restrict access to the administrative interface and accepted configuration parameters as part of HTTP POST and GET requests, Calin said.
When loading a Web page, the HTTP protocol relies on the GET method to receive information from the Web server to display. The POST method is used to submit data, such as the fields in a form, to the Web server.
In the attack email, Calin changed all the POST parameters to GET parameters and embedded an invisible image inside. To increase the likelihood of the attack succeeding, an attacker could send multiple images in the email, such as one with the default username and password for that particular router model as the source, and others with common username-password pairings, Calin said.
Since Apple devices load remote images in emails by default, the URL and all other POST and GET requests are also loaded, giving the attacker access to the router.
Why the Attack Works
Many people don't change the default password because it doesn't occur to them that a malicious user can gain access to that interface, Calin said, noting that even those who do change it frequently select a weak password.
It is possible the attack could work against other routers that accept configuration changes from GET parameters and doesn't protect against cross-site request forgeries, Calin said.
The attack works on the iPhone, iPad, and the default mail client on Macs. Even though Google's Gmail generally prompts users to click a link in order to load remote images, it is possible to configure the email service so that remote images are loaded automatically for some senders. In this case, it is possible that such an attack would work against Gmail users, regardless of platform.
Loading remote images by default can "cause privacy issues and it is not a recommended practice," Calin wrote.
Apple suggested users disable the "Load Remote Images" option on their mail clients under Settings -> Mail Contacts, Calendars, Calin said. Disabling this option means remote images will no longer be loaded.
It might just be easier to change the router's default password to something stronger and unique.

Several dumpsters in the library car park were set alight last night. Apparently the bins were 'well alight' when firefighters arrived from New Malden at about 1.30am.
|Smoke still rising earlier today
There seems to have been a spate of arson attacks in the same area over the last few weeks. According to another blog reader, a moterbike engine was set alight only metres from this point a few weeks ago which caused an explosion at 3am and caused a small fire which was put out by local residents. Shortly after this a wheely bin was apparently set alight, also very close by.
Please be vigilant and contact the police if you are aware of anyone who might be doing this. Next time it could by the library or someone's business or home, killing people in the process. These might be the sort of people who will not stop until they're caught so if you can help, please ensure they are caught quickly before something much worse happens.
You can contact the police on 101 or on 0800 555 111 if you wish to remain anonymous. Always call 999 if it is an emergency or a crime is in the midst of happening.
