SkyCatcher deliveries delayed
Cessna SkyCatcher customers have learned in a letter from Cessna Aircraft Co. that deliveries will be delayed six to 10 months from promised dates. The factory in Shenyang, China, must be retooled to accommodate changes made to the aircraft to improve spin recovery performance. "Production ramp up is a complicated process with thousands of parts being fabricated and moved into place for assembly," said Cessna spokesman Doug Oliver. The process was further complicated by redesigns stemming from the two spin accidents, he added. "This airplane is going to be around for decades, and we'd prefer to get it absolutely right rather than rush it into production to save a few months." Read more >>
House, Senate GA caucuses broaden reach
Less than a year after Reps. Allen Boyd (D-Fla.) and Vernon Ehlers (R-Mich.) formed the House General Aviation Caucus, more than 100 members of Congress have joined the group. The caucus launched in April last year with the purpose of educating elected officials on Capitol Hill of the value of GA to the economy and national transportation system. Throughout the year, members of the caucus took a stand for GA on security issues, FAA funding, and public perception. The Senate GA Caucus, which was formed after the House caucus, has already grown to 23 members. Read more >>
The State of the Union for GA
President Barack Obama's State of the Union speech Jan. 27 laid out where he hopes to lead the country over the next year. AOPA President Craig Fuller shares his thoughts in a podcast and blog about the speech's implications for aviation and how the administration's good intentions about creating jobs and supporting small businesses should translate into concrete actions and hard numbers. "For the aviation community, the true test will be in the details of the federal budget proposal we expect to see on Monday," Fuller says.
Pilatus sets sales record
The economy may be on shaky ground, but for Swiss manufacturer Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. the news couldn't be better. The company recently announced that in 2009 it delivered 100 of its PC-12 NG single-engine turboprops to customers worldwide. "Achieving 100 deliveries in a single year is a significant milestone for Pilatus and the PC-12 NG production program," said Ignaz Gretener, Pilatus vice president of general aviation. Read more >>
Haiti relief: Quest Kodiak headed for Haiti
A new Quest Aircraft single-engine turboprop Kodiak headed for Haiti shortly after Mission Aviation Fellowship received it new from the factory. The missionary group previously dedicated three aircraft to the relief effort. It is the first Kodiak to join the fleet of general aviation aircraft helping to provide aid to Haiti. Read more >>
Haiti relief: Country road doubles as 'airport'
Tradewind Aviation based in Connecticut is providing Cessna Caravans for delivery of supplies to Haiti. A lack of small airports means a country road must double as a runway. The Caravans are part of a program called Corporate Aircraft Responding in Emergencies (CARE); there are 24 aircraft flying to Haiti from Florida under the program. The aircraft deliver food, water, medical supplies, and doctors to the Leogane area of Haiti by landing on the stretch of road up to eight times a day with two of Tradewind's Caravans. Read more >>
FAA should work with users on navaid decommissioning plan
The scheduled decommissioning of many ground-based navaids starting this year puts GPS on course to supplant long-range navigation (loran) and VOR equipment in general aviation cockpits. AOPA is asking the FAA to work closely with users on a decommissioning strategy that aligns with the deployment of new technology and takes into account many pilots' current use of VORs for navigation. Read more >>
GA groups share plans for 2010
The general aviation industry entered 2010 with plenty of challenges: securing long-term funding for the FAA, fighting the prospect of user fees, facilitating air transportation modernization, recovering from a recession, and correcting public misconceptions about the value of GA. The heads of leading industry associations came together Jan. 26 to rise to the challenges with cooperation and a broad base of support. The associations have worked together more than ever before over the past year. "We cannot forget what we did in 2009 when it comes to standing up for GA," AOPA President Craig Fuller said. "… The fact is that by working together a lot has been accomplished, and we got more people to the table to discuss our issues." Read more >>
Carbon Cub SS: Light sport brute
When the air traffic controller requested that the Carbon Cub SS make an "immediate departure," the airplane didn't just comply: It redefined the term. The 180-horsepower light sport aircraft leapt off the ground in about four airplane lengths carrying two people and more than 20 gallons of fuel skyward at 1,700 feet per minute and 60 MIAS. Built by CubCrafters in Yakima, Wash., the carbon-fiber rocket ship proves that LSAs don't have to be boring. They can offer stellar, pulse-quickening performance. Fly along with AOPA Pilot Senior Editor Dave Hirschman.
Pioneering Alaskan company reclaims its name
Anyone familiar with Alaskan flying history will remember Ryan Air before it changed its name to Arctic Transportation Services. The company, still owned by the Ryan family, said it is naming itself Ryan Air once again. The announcement came at an event honoring legislators and cargo air carrier founders who built the Alaskan bush transportation system that today sustains entire native villages. The group was honored as "the toughest people on Earth." Some of them are Alaskan natives such as Holger "Jorgy" Jorgensen, who, with one good eye, landed a Douglas DC-3 in the Aleutian Islands with an engine out and 6,500 pounds of dynamite on board.

Jewel in the crown
Cessna, Cirrus, Piper, Waco. High-wing, low-wing, V-tail; one engine, two engines. The variety of aircraft that have starred in AOPA's sweepstakes reflects the spectrum of general aviation itself. This year's airplane is yet another standout. For the 2010 Fun to Fly Sweepstakes prize, AOPA has chosen its first-ever light sport aircraft. The brand-new airplane represents the best of what this burgeoning new segment of GA has to offer: fun and utility in one smartly designed package. Read more >>

Tucker was the emcee for the evening's black-tie event, which included some 1,000 guests. Read more >>
Cirrus updates customers on Vision Jet
Cirrus Aircraft officials say the company's financial strength has improved to the point that it is capable of attracting development capital to fund completion of the Vision Jet. For now, development is being funded with internal cash flow and will concentrate on design issues. Read more >>
Cessna anticipates recovery in late 2010
Cessna Aircraft's parent company, Textron, said aircraft sales would improve in the second half of this year, although totals will fall below 2009 levels. Cessna's revenues decreased $642 million in the fourth quarter of 2009 compared with the corresponding period of 2008, because of lower volumes. Cessna will increase research and development spending on upgrades to existing models, and even work on unannounced models to be introduced when the market improves. Read more >>
Layoffs continue in Wichita
Three companies have announced layoffs in Wichita, Kan., but one of them was part of a broader announcement made last year. New layoffs include Hawker Beechcraft, which laid off 15 employees in late January, and Boeing's Wichita operation, which laid off seven workers. Bombardier laid off 100 at its Learjet plant, but those were part of a larger group of 820 announced last year. Read more >>
Plastic pilot certificate deadline approaches
The deadline for switching to plastic pilot certificates is weeks away. Paper pilot certificates will no longer be valid after March 31; don't let procrastination ground you. The cost for a new certificate is $2. Temporary and student pilot certificates are not impacted by the rule. The steps for the process are provided on the FAA Web site.
Students restore airplane for flying lessons
For the past two years a group of seven California high school students has gathered at a small hangar on Flabob Airport at Riverside, Calif., to restore a 1963 Skycoupe. Designed by Ray Stits, the Skycoupe was one of the earliest designs offered to homebuilders and members of the Experimental Aircraft Association. When it was dug out of the rafters of an old hangar at Flabob, project leader Al Gester said it looked like it had been in a wreck, though closer examination showed it just suffered from many years of neglect and rough handling.

Olympic TFR affects U.S., Canadian airports
Even though the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympic Games are in British Columbia, Canada, pilots flying in the Northwest United States will have to work around a temporary flight restriction in place from Jan. 29 through March 24. Flight restrictions in place in Canada for the games extend into the Seattle, Wash., area and from the surface up to 17,999 feet msl. Because of the lengthy duration, AOPA worked with the FAA to ease the restrictions for pilots flying to and from the U.S. airports impacted by the TFR. Read more >>

Get a checkup on your aeromedical knowledge
Would you recognize the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning? If you stop a climb and feel as if you're tumbling backward, will you trust your instruments or your inner ear? Knowledge of aeromedical factors—health factors and physiological effects that can be linked to flying—keeps pilots from succumbing to spatial disorientation or flying while impaired, and it could prevent in-flight emergencies. Test your knowledge of aeromedical factors in this quiz from the AOPA Air Safety Foundation, underwritten by the AOPA Insurance Agency.
Cold weather precautions keep winter at bay
While you're warming your fingers in the cockpit before your next winter flight, allow plenty of time for the engine to warm up, too. Cold oil is thick and slow, and metals expanding at different rates in the engine can cause wear. Don't consider taking off until the oil temperature has stabilized at least at the bottom of the green. And keep your options open. That means taking lots of fuel in case unexpected weather rolls in. Read more about cold weather operations in the AOPA Pilot Information Center "Winter flying" subject report, and check out additional resources in the AOPA Air Safety Foundation's Winter Safety Spotlight.
Landing mishaps plotted
You may get away with a lapse of judgment or an unpracticed skill in cruise flight, but landings are less forgiving. Add to that unfamiliar conditions—a soft or short runway, a gusty day, high density altitude, or a heavy airplane—and even high-time pilots can botch a landing. With an average of eight per week, bad landings are the most common type of general aviation accident. Learn from the mistakes of other pilots in this interactive map of landing accidents created by the AOPA Air Safety Foundation. Just mouse over an accident marker and then click on the accident number to read the NTSB's narrative of the accident.

Grant application moves forward for Ohio airport
Cincinnati-Blue Ash Airport is a diamond in the rough, but now it is a step closer to getting the polishing it needs. The city of Cincinnati, which owns the airport located nearby in Blue Ash, Ohio, has submitted its airport layout plan to the FAA. That was the one piece of documentation holding up the airport's application for Airport Improvement Program (AIP) funding. Receiving AIP funding would require the airport to remain open for 20 years. The obligations attached to previous AIP funds the airport received expired a few years ago. Read more >>
Reporting Points: Ace and the movies
After 11,700 hours, "Ace" Beall deserves the nickname. As chief pilot for NASA, he flew the Boeing KC–135 "vomit comet" to give astronauts experience in weightlessness, taught astronauts to fly the Northrop T–38, and flew the Space Shuttle from California to Florida atop a Boeing 747. Last August, Beall teamed with movie photographer Dylan Goss to film aerial scenes for the film "Up in the Air." Read more >>
Air Safety eJournal: Soaring in LIT
Most of the time, powered aircraft and sailplanes coexist quite nicely. Rarely is there a collision, but it can happen if all the right factors line up in just the wrong way: In August 2006, a Hawker XP bizjet and a Schleicher ASW 27-18 sailplane collided as the Hawker was descending out of 16,000 feet. AOPA Air Safety Foundation President Bruce Landsberg went to the Soaring Society of America Convention in Little Rock, Ark., to discuss how airplanes and sailplanes can safely share the airspace.

(BPT) – Vitamin A deficiency is a health concern affecting millions of children worldwide, and it is a major underlying cause of child mortality and blindness.
Because of this, Flintstones Vitamins is embarking on a new mission: 10 Million Stronger.
Aligning with the brand's storied heritage of providing children with the opportunity to grow up strong and healthy, Bayer HealthCare, the makers of Flintstones Vitamins, has teamed up with Vitamin Angels, a non-profit organization, to help deliver essential vitamin A to 10 million children worldwide suffering from vitamin A deficiency.
As parents today focus on ensuring their children are global citizens – educating them about the struggles of children around the world and the value of philanthropy – 10 Million Stronger offers a unique opportunity to participate in a charitable initiative while simply using the family computer or tablet – something many parents and children do together every day.
Worldwide, an estimated 190 million children younger than 5 suffer from vitamin A deficiency. While vitamin A deficiency is serious and potentially fatal, it can be prevented. In fact, a donation of just 25 cents will protect one child from vitamin A deficiency for one year by funding two high-dose vitamin A capsules. These vitamin A capsules can reduce mortality in children under 5 by about 24 percent in at-risk populations. It can also help prevent and reverse one of the most severe effects of vitamin A deficiency, xerophthalmia, a disorder of the eye that can lead to permanent blindness.
To kick off 10 Million Stronger, the makers of Flintstones Vitamins have donated $300,000 to Vitamin Angels in its inaugural year. Families can participate by raising awareness and making donations in support of the initiative through the brand's Facebook page at www.facebook.com/FlintstonesVitamins.
So as you and your children log on today, take a few minutes to visit www.facebook.com/FlintstonesVitamins to learn more about 10 Million Stronger, make a donation and help the Flintstones Vitamins community spread the word. With just a few mouse clicks you can teach an important lesson about helping others – and make a difference in the health of a child in need.

Oct. 29, 2005
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - Perennial national power Navy flexed its muscle against previously unbeaten MIT on Saturday, breaking four range records en route to the win. With winning scores of 2310-2181 in air rifle and 2300-2179 in smallbore, the Midshipmen set team records in both guns.
Although MIT suffered its first shoulder-to-shoulder loss after four straight wins, the Engineers' performance was right on target. Jonathan Burnham and Jake Latcham recorded personal bests for the second consecutive week, while the Cardinal and Gray received outstanding shooting efforts from Jay Gill, Anton Katz, Wes McKinney and Nathan Pfaff. Tech's air unit shot a season-high 2181.
Navy's smallbore team of Josh Albright, Monica Amagna, Billy Carson and Chris Schneider fired a new team record in addition to the range mark, while Albright, Amagna, Schneider, and Christy Shade comprised the Midshipmen's record-breaking air squad.
In smallbore, both Chris Schneider and Josh Albright broke the 3 x 20 with a pair of 585. Albright also set an individual range record in air rifle with a score of 583. Katz was Tech's top marksman, totaling a score of 580 in air and 571 in smallbore.

Our research team advances the field of educational measurement through innovative research in the following areas:
Developing Natural Language Processing Applications
Our researchers have significant experience in a branch of computer science and computational linguistics known as Natural Language Processing (NLP). This technology has many applications. In particular, we have used this research capability to develop automated scoring applications. One of these applications is the e-rater® automated scoring engine. Other automated scoring applications that we are developing include the c-rater™ engine, the m-rater engine and the SpeechRater℠ service. For more information, see Automated Scoring and Natural Language Processing.
Reliably and Validly Measuring Personal Skills
Some of our research capabilities are dedicated to identifying and investigating areas that are not well represented in large-scale testing programs. Our teams responsible for foundational research on personal skills also look for valid and reliable methods of measuring them. An outcome of this research is the ETS® Personal Potential Index (ETS® PPI) — a measure of personal skills that is available to test takers who have registered for the GRE® revised General Test.
Research on Understanding and Enhancing Teaching
We are using our research capabilities to contribute to a new generation of assessments that can help support effective teaching at critical points throughout teachers' careers.
Understanding Teacher Effectiveness
Our researchers are working to develop and validate measures of teaching effectiveness. Our research capability in this area includes expertise in classroom observation, classroom assignments, measures of teaching knowledge and value-added methodologies. Our recent work in this area has included theoretical research, which ETS has published in the course of its participation in the National Comprehensive Center for Teacher Quality, and a number of significant empirical studies undertaken with the support of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the WT Grant Foundation and the Spencer Foundation.
Integrating Assessment and Classroom Instruction
We are using our research capabilities to investigate questions such as these: In the United States, what must change about schools' approaches to assessment in order to better promote quality and equity? How can teachers use assessment more effectively? Is it possible to better align assessment with classroom instruction?
Developing and Improving Assessment of Adult Literacy
As society becomes more technologically advanced, adults are expected to use information in new and more complex ways and maintain and enhance their literacy skills through lifelong learning activities. Literacy is a foundational skill area in which we conduct extensive research. Our researchers have completed a number of studies and contributed to several internationally used frameworks designed to help understand the factors that contribute to literacy. We also actively conduct research into literacy in the United States. The ETS Philadelphia Applied Research Office carries out research activities with a particular focus on literacy. This office specializes in:
- research, program development and analysis of literacy and language acquisition
- assessment development for literacy and language learning
- support and training of teachers, tutors and other research study participants
- research on and assessment of personal skills and qualities

Nelson Belts Two Doubles For Yale
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. – Chelsey Dunham pitched one of her best games of the season for the Yale softball team in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader with Penn. She allowed six hits and only one earned run in six innings. Unfortunately for Dunham, she was matched up with one of the hottest pitchers in the Ivy League. Alexis Borden tossed a three-hitter to lead the Quakers to a 1-0 victory at Penn Park.
The Quakers completed the sweep with a 14-3 victory in the second game.
The only run of the first game came on Kayla Dahlerbruch's home run leading off the bottom of the third inning.
The Bulldogs' best scoring chance against Borden came in the fifth inning. Kylie Williamson led off with a single to left. Virginia Waldrop then laid down a bunt that was misplayed by the second baseman. With one out, Riley Hughes hit a sharp line drive that was caught by the second baseman, who then turned it into an inning-ending double play.
Yale had another opportunity in the sixth when Christy Nelson doubled with two out, but she was left stranded.
In the seventh, Williamson singled with one out and then advanced to second on a wild pitch. Borden, though, struck out the next two hitters to end the game.
Penn (19-10, 4-0 Ivy) seized control of the second game by scoring six times in the first inning.
Yale (7-15, 1-3 Ivy) scored its three runs in the fifth inning. Hughes walked to begin the rally. After a single by Tori Balta and a walk to Nelson, Sarah Onorato drove home two runs with a single up the middle. Nelson later scored on an illegal pitch.
Onorato finished 2-for-3 with the two RBI.
The Bulldogs are back in action next Wednesday when they travel to Rhode Island for a doubleheader. The first pitch of the first game is slated for 3 p.m.

There will be no need for the mascot to respond "What's my name?" to Gianluigi Buffon when Celtic line up against Juventus for the first leg of their Champions League tie if rapper Snoop Dogg has his way, and leads the teams out.
After revealing his support for the club in the aftermath of their famous 2-1 over Barcelona in November, it was even rumoured that the hip-hop star was considering investing in the Parkhead-based club.
However, it appears merely support isn't enough for Snoop, who has now turned his attentions to obtaining a match ticket for Neil Lennon's side's clash with the grand Old Lady of Italian football.
"It's the one I need to go to. It's the game we've been waiting for," he said.
"I need tickets but I want to walk out with the team like a little kid with the banner. Yes, yes, make it happen. Hail, hail the Celts are here. Yabadabadoo!"
Certainly, despite all the furore of the 17-year-old ball "boy" who fell foul of Eden Hazard's temper during Chelsea's exit to Swansea in the Capital One Cup semi finals, perhaps the 41-year-old rapper would be best placed leaving the mascot job for the more younger generation.
However, if he does manage to get his hands on a ticket to the match, it was put to the American that he may find himself sitting next to Rod Stewart, bringing a predictable response.
"Do you think I'm sexy?"

Texas A&M offense clicks with and without Manziel
Texas A&M's offense was practically unstoppable, with and without Johnny Manziel. That Aggies defense needed all the help it could get against Rice.
Johnny Football packed three touchdown passes into less than a half of work for the seventh-ranked Aggies, who beat Rice 52-31 in College Station, Texas, on Saturday.
Manziel was held out of the first half because of what the school said was an "inadvertent" violation of NCAA rules involving signing autographs. The sophomore had been investigated for allegedly accepting money for autographs from memorabilia brokers, a violation of NCAA rules that could have led to a much longer suspension.
He came in on Texas A&M's first offensive play of the second half. His first play was a 12-yard run, and the Aggies capped his first drive with a 44-yard field goal. His first touchdown came on a 23-yard pass to Mike Evans on A&M's second drive of the half.
Shortly before that, he got into it with a Rice defender, appearing to mimic signing an autograph while getting up from a tackle. He ended his day by getting yanked following an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for pointing at the scoreboard after a TD pass in the fourth quarter.
He was replaced by Matt Joeckel on A&M's last drive.
Joeckel started at quarterback for A&M and threw for 190 yards and a touchdown to help the Aggies to a 28-21 lead at halftime.
Manziel was one of more than a half dozen players serving suspensions Saturday.
Cornerbacks Deshazor Everett and De'Vante Harris, defensive tackle Kirby Ennis, defensive end Gavin Stansbury and linebacker Steven Jenkins, all starters, sat out for Texas A&M. Everett returned in the second half, then was ejected for a targeting penalty and he'll miss the first half of next week's game against Sam Houston State, too. Backup safety Floyd Raven was also suspended for this game.
The suspensions of Harris, Stansbury, Jenkins and receiver Edward Pope are for two games and were announced just minutes before kickoff, meaning they'll be back for top-ranked Alabama on Sept. 14.
No. 1 ALABAMA 35, VIRGINIA TECH 10
ATLANTA (AP) — Christion Jones became the first Alabama player since at least the 1940s to have two returns for touchdowns, Vinnie Sunseri brought back an interception for another TD, and the Crimson Tide overcame a sluggish offensive performance to beat Virginia Tech.
Jones scored on a 72-yard punt return less than 2 minutes into the game, then scooted loose on a kickoff for a 94-yard touchdown that led the Crimson Tide (1-0) to a win that could've been much tougher to start its quest for an unprecedented third straight national title.
For good measure, the junior receiver also hauled in a 38-yard touchdown pass late in the third quarter to blow it open against the Hokies (0-1), who largely shut down AJ McCarron and Alabama's highly touted offense.
No. 2 OHIO STATE 40, BUFFALO 20
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Braxton Miller threw two touchdown passes before fighting leg cramps and Jordan Hall ran for two more scores to lead Ohio State to a victory over Buffalo in the season opener for both teams.
The Buckeyes, striving for a crisper start from coach Urban Meyer's debut in 2012, led 23-0 after the first quarter before the Bulls made things interesting. Joe Licata threw two TD passes and linebacker Kahlil Mack returned a Miller interception 45 yards to make it 30-20 in the third quarter.
Miller was sidelined a second time with cramps and sub Kenny Guiton promptly tossed a 21-yard TD pass to Chris Fields.
Hall had a career-high 159 yards rushing, scoring on runs of 37 and 49 yards.
No. 3 OREGON 66, NICHOLLS 3
EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — Marcus Mariota threw a touchdown pass and ran for two additional scores and the Oregon Ducks made easy work of lower-tier Nicholls.
Mariota, who set an Oregon record with 38 touchdowns last season as a redshirt freshman, completed 12 of 21 passes for 234 yards before sitting after the third quarter when the Ducks had built a 45-3 lead.
Mariota also ran for 113 yards for his second career game with more than 100 yards rushing.
De'Anthony Thomas ran for 128 yards and two more touchdowns for Oregon in the debut of new head coach Mark Helfrich.
Helfrich, the team's former offensive coordinator, was promoted when Chip Kelly left the Ducks in January for the NFL's Philadelphia Eagles.
No. 8 CLEMSON 38, No. 5 GEORGIA 35
CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) — Tajh Boyd threw for three touchdowns and rushed for two others, Clemson's defense sacked Aaron Murray four times and the Tigers stung the Bulldogs.
Boyd had scoring passes of 77 yards to Sammy Watkins, 24 yards to Zac Brooks and 9 yards to Stanton Seckinger. Boyd also added TD runs of 4 and 2 yards to win the lone matchup of top 10 teams in college football's opening weekend.
The Tigers took the lead for good, 31-28, on Chandler Catanzaro's 24-yard field goal in the third quarter. Georgia had a chip-shot try for a tying kick on its next possession, but couldn't get if off after Nathan Theus' bad snap .
Two series later, Boyd led a 12-play, 87-yard TD drive that ended with tight end Seckinger tip-toeing the sidelines to get in.
Georgia's Todd Gurley ran for 154 yards and two touchdowns.
No. 7 TEXAS A&M 52, RICE 31
COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) — After serving his first-half suspension, Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel threw three TD passes and scrambled for 19 yards — ran his mouth a bit, too — as Texas A&M posted a lopsided win over Rice.
Manziel was sitting out because of what the school said was an "inadvertent" violation of NCAA rules involving signing autographs.
His first touchdown came on a 23-yard pass to Mike Evans on A&M's second drive of the half.
Shortly before that, he got into it with a Rice defender, appearing to mimic signing an autograph while getting up from a tackle. He ended his day by getting yanked following an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for pointing at the scoreboard after a TD pass in the fourth quarter.
He was replaced by Matt Joeckel on A&M's last drive.
No. 10 FLORIDA 24, TOLEDO 6
GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Mack Brown had a career day, Jeff Driskel was efficient and Florida opened the season with a victory over Toledo.
Brown ran 25 times for 112 yards and two touchdowns. Driskel completed 17 of 22 passes for 153 yards and a score. And Florida's defense, which ranked fifth in the country in 2012, looked every bit as good as last year's version despite losing eight starters and its coordinator.
The Gators controlled both lines of scrimmage, opening holes for Brown and keeping steady pressure on Toledo's experienced spread offense. It was exactly the style of play Florida has become known for under third-year coach Will Muschamp. No flashiness. Few highlight-reel plays. But a win in the end.
It was Florida's 24th consecutive season-opening victory, the second-longest active streak in the country. Only Nebraska (27) has a longer current run.
No. 12 LSU 37, No. 20 TCU 27
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Terrence Magee ran for two touchdowns in the second half, Zach Mettenberger threw for 251 yards with a key late score and LSU held on for a victory.
Odell Beckham's 75-yard kickoff return set up a 20-yard TD pass from Mettenberger to Jarvis Landry with 6 minutes left.
All in all, despite a crucial fumble and a three-and-out in the fourth quarter that kept the game uncomfortably close, the Tigers' first game with new offensive coordinator Cam Cameron calling the plays provided a promising start to the season.
And that replenished defense after losing a team-record eight players to the NFL draft came up with some key plays.
B.J. Catalon returned a kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown and scored on a 26-yard run for TCU.
No. 13 OKLAHOMA STATE 21, MISSISSIPPI STATE 3
HOUSTON (AP) — J.W. Walsh threw for 135 yards and ran for another 125 and a touchdown to lead the Oklahoma State Cowboys to a win over the Mississippi State in the Texas Kickoff.
Walsh finished 18 of 27 after relieving starter Clint Chelf on the Cowboys' third series. Jeremy Smith rushed for 102 yards and two touchdowns on 15 carries for Oklahoma State (1-0), which piled up 432 yards on offense after struggling for most of the first half.
Tyler Russell 10 of 16 for 133 yards before being helped off the field and taken to the locker room in the third quarter after being brought down on a scramble. Dak Prescott replaced Russell, throwing for 89 yards on seven of 17 passing.
LaDarius Perkins rushed for 50 yards on 16 carries and caught three passes for 52 yards for the Bulldogs (0-1).
No. 14 NOTRE DAME 28, TEMPLE 6
SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Tommy Rees threw a pair of 32-yard touchdown passes to DaVaris Daniels, a 66-yard scoring pass to Troy Niklas and Notre Dame had three quick scoring drives en route to a victory over Temple.
The 14th-ranked Irish jumped to a 14-0 lead on a pair of three-play drives on its opening two possessions and appeared headed for a blowout. But when the Notre Dame offense stalled, Temple squandered a pair of scoring chances, with Jim Cooper Jr. missing a pair of field goals. An unsettled feeling settled in at Notre Dame Stadium when Kenny Harper scored on a 1-yard run to cut the lead to 14-6. The Irish regained control, however, with Niklas' TD with 43 seconds left in the half.
The victory by the Irish (1-0) was the 200th career win for coach Brian Kelly. The Owls (0-1) fell to 2-76 all-time against ranked opponents.
No. 15 TEXAS 56, NEW MEXICO STATE 7
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — David Ash threw four touchdown passes and ran for another as Texas shook off a slow start to roll.
Ash threw two interceptions in the second quarter and the Longhorns' new up-tempo offense stalled as the Aggies took a 7-0 lead. Ash then connected on touchdown passes of 54 and 66 yards to John Harris and Daje (duh-jay) Johnson in the final two minutes of the first half.
In the third quarter, Ash turned a scramble into a 55-yard touchdown and passed to Malcolm Brown for a 74-yard score. After falling behind, Texas (1-0) scored 35 points on 15 snaps and finished with a school-record 715 total yards with Ash accounting for 434.
Andrew McDonald was 32-of-46 passing with one touchdown, but also had two turnovers for the Aggies (0-1), who went 1-11 last season.
No. 16 OKLAHOMA 34, LOUISANA-MONROE 0
NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — Trevor Knight rushed for 103 yards on 13 carries and threw three touchdown passes - two to Jalen Saunders - in his first start and Oklahoma beat Louisiana-Monroe.
Oklahoma gave coach Bob Stoops his 150th career win, putting him seven behind Barry Switzer on the Sooners' career coaching wins list. Oklahoma is 5-0 under Stoops in August games and 14-1 in home openers, having lost only to Texas Christian in 2005.
Knight became the first Oklahoma quarterback to rush for 100 or more yards in a game since Jason White had 117 yards rushing against Kansas on Oct. 13, 2001.
Louisiana-Monroe upset then-No. 8 Arkansas on the road to open the 2012 season, but the Warhawks didn't get untracked offensively against a revamped Oklahoma defense. The Warhawks crossed midfield only twice and recorded only nine first downs and 166 yards of offense.
No. 17 MICHIGAN 59, CENTRAL MICHIGAN 9
ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — Devin Gardner ran for two touchdowns and threw for another in the first half as Michigan went on to beat Central Michigan.
It was the highest-scoring opener for the Wolverines (1-0) since 1905, when they beat Ohio Wesleyan 65-0. They will face a tougher test against No. 14 Notre Dame next week at home in a prime-time game.
The Chippewas (0-1) fell behind 35-6 at halftime Saturday. After they gave up five straight TDs, Ron Coluzzi's third field goal made it 56-9 with 3:12 left in the game.
Gardner was 10 of 15 for 162 yards with a 16-yard TD pass to Jeremy Gallon and two interceptions. He ran for a 22-yard score midway through the first quarter when Michigan led by just four points and had a 4-yard TD on the ground late in the first half.
No. 18 NEBRASKA 37, WYOMING 34
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Ameer Abdullah and Imani Cross each ran for more than 100 yards, Taylor Martinez passed for three touchdowns and Nebraska survived two late turnovers to defeat Wyoming.
The Cornhuskers, who won their nation-leading 28th straight opener, scored on four of five possessions after trailing 14-10 early in the second quarter and then had to hang on as Wyoming made it a game to the end.
The Cowboys converted two late Nebraska turnovers into touchdowns to pull within 37-34 with 1:32 left. Nebraska recovered the onside kick after Brett Smith's 47-yard TD pass to Robert Herron.
Wyoming's defense held, and the Cowboys got the ball back on their 6 with 1:07 to play, but time ran out on them before they could even get to midfield.
WASHINGTON 38, No. 19 BOISE STATE 6
SEATTLE (AP) — Keith Price threw a pair of third-quarter touchdown passes to become the school's all-time leader, and Washington returned renovated Husky Stadium with a stunning blowout of Boise Stat.
It was the worst loss in Chris Petersen's tenure as the Broncos head coach.
Price was intercepted on his first pass in the Huskies newly renovated home on the shores of Lake Washington. And he was nearly perfect from there, the first step in putting a disappointing 2012 season in the past.
Price completed 23 of 31 passes for 324 yards. He found Kasen Williams on a 19-yard TD on Washington's first possession of the second half and his 18-yard strike to Josh Perkins gave Washington a 24-6 lead late in the third quarter. It was Price's 56th career touchdown, passing Cody Pickett as Washington's all-time leader.
No. 21 UCLA 58, NEVADA 20
PASADENA, Calif. (AP) — Brett Hundley passed for 274 yards and two touchdowns and rushed for two more scores, leading UCLA's second-half surge.
Jordon James rushed for 155 yards and a touchdown, and Phillip Ruhl returned a blocked punt for a short touchdown as UCLA thoroughly spoiled the debut of Nevada coach Brian Polian with a 41-point second half.
Shaq Evans had six receptions for 81 yards and a score, and Malcolm Jones caught a late TD pass during a dominant effort by the UCLA offense, which piled up 647 total yards.
Cody Fajardo passed for 164 yards and rushed for two TDs, but the Wolf Pack couldn't keep up in their debut under Polian, the 38-year-old picked to replace Hall of Fame coach Chris Ault.
No. 22 NORTHWESTERN 44, CALIFORNIA 30
BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) — Collin Ellis returned two interceptions after deflected passes for touchdowns to help Northwestern spoil Sonny Dykes' debut as California coach.
Ellis had a 56-yard return in the third quarter and then put the Wildcats (1-0) in control when he took another one back 40 yards midway through the fourth to open a 10-point lead.
Those were rare blemishes on an otherwise strong debut by Jared Goff, who became the first true freshman to start the season opener for the Golden Bears (0-1). Goff went 38 for 63 for 445 yards and two touchdowns, and Cal also scored on a fake field goal on the opening drive in an entertaining start to Dykes' tenure.
No. 23 WISCONSIN 45, MASSACHUSETTS 0
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Melvin Gordon ran for 144 yards, James White added 143 and Wisconsin's revamped defense pitched a shutout of Massachusetts in coach Gary Andersen's debut.
Gordon and White padded their totals by each running for touchdowns of at least 51 yards for the Badgers, who didn't stray far from their trademark rushing attack with the defensive-minded Andersen now pacing the sideline.
Joel Stave overcame a slow start at quarterback to connect with Jared Abbrederis for two long touchdown passes in the second half.
UMass was simply overmatched against the Big Ten's three-time defending champion. The Minutemen are only in their second year as a major college program, and they had to play Saturday with running back Jordan Broadnax and tight end Rob Blanchflower out with injuries.
Stacey Bedell finished with 70 yards on 19 carries for UMass.
EASTERN WASHINGTON 49, No. 25 OREGON STATE 46
CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) — Vernon Adams passed for 411 yards and ran for 107 and the go-ahead score with 18 seconds left as Eastern Washington upset Oregon State to become the third FCS team to beat a ranked FBS team.
Adams overwhelmed the Beavers in a performance in sure to attract attention around the nation. He threw for four touchdowns and ran for two, completing 23 of 30 passes despite leaving the game twice — once with cramping and a second time after taking a hard hit near the sideline.
Adams returned, though, and scored on a 2-yard run to put the Eagles up 49-46. It was the first time a team from the Football Championship Subdivision has defeated a ranked team from the Football Bowl Subdivision since James Madison beat Virginia Tech in September 2010.
Sean Mannion threw for 422 yards and Brandin Cooks had 13 catches for 196 yards for the Beavers.

The House Ethics Committee has unanimously concluded that House member, California Democrat Laura Richardson, was found to have "violated" the law and was fined $10,000 for misconduct.
Richardson, who is seeking another term in November, was accused of pressuring staffers to work for her campaign. The committee said it had "substantial reason to believe that Representative Laura Richardson violated the Purpose Law...." This will trigger a floor vote to sanction her.
As part of an agreement with the committee, Richardson admitted to all seven counts of allegations against her.
The Ethics Committee established an investigative subcommittee in November of last year to investigate her use of official staff for campaign purposes, which is against House rules. Staffers in many offices leave the congressional office to work for campaigns, but working for both is not permitted.
The committee said in a statement that she was "improperly using House resources for campaign, personal, and nonofficial purposes; by requiring or compelling her official staff to perform campaign work."
The committee also found she obstructed the investigation by the Ethics Committee through "the alteration or destruction of evidence, the deliberate failure to produce documents responsive to requests for information and a subpoena, and attempting to influence the testimony of witnesses."
The fine must be paid no later than Dec. 1, 2012. The committee also strongly discouraged Richardson from permitting any of her official staff to perform work on her campaign -- either on a paid or volunteer basis.

Questions/comments I have about the process. We didn't adjust our Water in any way. We used Tap water, I don't know what the mineral profile is for the Water we use, but we need to address thatWe didn't check PH in any way shape or form. I did try once with the PH Test strips I had purchased, but the color on the Strip wasn't anything near any of the example. When should we be checking PH and does anyone have a PH meter they recommend?We made a 1.5L starter for this beer, which is currently working away. Is one vial of yeast enough to make a starter of that size?How do people clean their Kettles? 15G Pots are huge and just don't fit in sinks. The Propane Burner we used had most of the paint charred off due to the heat, is there a way to protect this piece of equipment from the rust im sure will be forming on it in the near future?I tried doing a starch test and I never saw the color change that was suggested would happen. I purchased Iodine at CVS, But it was Called Iodine-(something) is there a specific type of iodine needed for this test? Will a refractometer be better for me?
Everything could have been avoided if you bought a blue cooler instead of red....... Welcome to all grain! Dave
Quote from: davidgzach on March 03, 2013, 04:55:56 PMEverything could have been avoided if you bought a blue cooler instead of red....... Welcome to all grain! Dave Yes, and blue coolers are awesome! It's proven that they maintain heat better and prevent stuck sparges from occurring!
Im going to invest in a bazooka screen anyway, they seem cheap and its just a fun thing to play with. I may use it in my kettle once i install the weldless bulkhead.

ST. PETERSBURG, FL — The 7th Annual 911 Fitness Challenge began this month with more than 29 cities nationwide participating. The Challenge is a 12-week weight-loss challenge for approximately 8,000 police and firefighters. At least 10 health clubs (some with multiple sites) and one YMCA are participating. The fitness facilities act as weigh-in sites for participants, and many are offering promotional packages for 12-week and annual memberships as well as help from personal trainers.
Clubs who participate pay $1,500 for one location. Multiple club locations receive discounted rates.
Teams of public safety service people will compete to win one of four regional awards of $5,000. Winners are chosen based on percent of improvement — muscle gained, combined with fat lost, said Jim Sayid, founder and director of the competition and a sergeant with the Miami Police Department. Four hundred and sixty personal trainers at participating fitness facilities measure the body fat of competitors in January and April and send the data to headquarters in Miami where it is computed. The Challenge will end April 10, 2005. Between January and April, the participants follow a 12-week program designed to help them build muscle and lose fat.
Lifestyle Family Fitness is one of the fitness sponsors for the 911 Challenge. Each Challenge contestant in the area will be offered a free three-month membership to Lifestyle Family Fitness to participate in the challenge and to receive guidance from Lifestyle Family Fitness personal trainers. The personal trainers will measure the body composition of contestants before and after the 12-week period to calculate and determine which team achieved the most improvement. They will also take "before photos" and oversee the teams' workouts and progress.
Sayid started the 911 Challenge in 1997 after teaching workshops on police and firefighter personal trainer certification where he saw that lack of motivation was the most significant reason public servants lacked fitness in their daily schedule. Sayid is also a Shriner and has a child with cerebral palsy.
"I created the event so the Shriner hospitals can benefit, so public servants can benefit by starting a fitness routine, so that the winners walk away with big cash and a fitter body, and so that sponsors can benefit from a high volume of new walk-in traffic to their clubs," Sayid said.


text: Small and medium firms often have summer associate positions, but they aren't able to float 10 summers knowing only 3 will come back. They need to be 100% sold on your interest in the firm. Also, some small firms only have half-summer programs. I've found that firms in the 40-150 range in secondary markets pay anywhere between $1350-2500/wk. Most have tended to cluster in the $1600-1900/wk range for summers. Those are generally on their website. Westlaw has a colleciton of those, your school should have a database of everywhere that people have summered before, and send cold e-mails with targeted cover letters and resumes attached. Keep a good database of your e-mails sent out and when you sent them. Follow up by telephone two weeks later. After that, follow-up again 1 week later. If you're looking for a job somewhere that is not in the geographic area of your law school, get a 0% APR credit card. Plan a trip to wherever it is that you want jobs in October (over the weekdays) and put in your cover letter the dates that you'll be in the area. Small and midsize firms will appreciate your commitment to the geographic area and are more likely to take a chance on you when they don't have to pay for your callback.In this market, you should send literally hundred(s) of targeted emails. When many top 14 kids are worried, you know you're going to have to work a hell of a lot harder and the competition for midsize is going to be fierce.

The NASL Spring Season ended last Sunday for the Carolina RailHawks with an embarrassing 6-1 loss against FC Edmonton, and Carolina isn't scheduled to play another league match until mid-July. But the team won't be taking much of a break.
Head coach Colin Clarke's squad will look to bounce back while competing in the 2014 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup. The RailHawks will host a familiar opponent, Chivas USA of MLS, in the fourth round at WakeMed Soccer Park on Saturday.
The game will mark the third straight year that the RailHawks will have hosted Chivas USA in the U.S. Open Cup. Carolina lost in 2012 but was victorious in 2013.
Clarke knows that his team has a track record of winning against MLS teams in the U.S. Open Cup, and he's optimistic about the upcoming battle with Chivas USA.

"We've had some great nights in this competition over the past couple of years, and we're looking forward to another one," Clarke said.
The U.S. Open Cup is a competition which features teams from varying levels of competition from across the United States.
All NASL teams competing in the U.S. Open Cup received a double-bye through the first and second rounds of the championship. The RailHawks opened up Cup play in the third round with a 2-0 win against the Charlotte Eagles in late May.
But facing a team from the MLS, the USA's highest level of soccer competition, poses a much greater challenge for Carolina.
Yet the RailHawks have proven in past years that taking down an MLS team is very doable.
In 2013, the RailHawks made a run to the quarterfinals of the U.S. Open Cup behind victories against the Los Angeles Galaxy and Chivas USA. Carolina is 3-2 against MLS teams in the past two seasons.
The RailHawks, who went 4-3-2 (W-L-T) over the course of the NASL Spring Season, have had a Jekyll and Hyde personality over the past few seasons.
While Carolina has a 21-game home unbeaten streak, the RailHawks have just one road win in the team's 21 last road contests dating back to 2012.
But when the RailHawks have played well of late, goalkeeper Akira Fitzgerald has been a big reason for the success.
Before Sunday's unusual performance in which he surrendered six goals, Fitzgerald had recorded three straight clean sheets.
"For a small keeper, he's very agile and very quick around the goal," Clarke said of Fitzgerald.
Carolina hasn't overwhelmed many opponents with its offensive attack, but the RailHawks do have four different players with two or more goals as forward Zack Schilawski leads the way with three.
Chivas USA, which has former U.S. men's national team great Carlos Bocanegra, enters its matchup with the RailHawks having struggled mightily as of late, winning just one of its last five matches.

Talk:Add a Serial port to the ARM9 Linkstation
From NAS-Central Buffalo - The Linkstation Wiki
This page is confusing. Too high a pictures to words ratio (e.g. not enough description).
- If this confuses you, have you considered a simpler project for a start?
- What is that picture showing under ' Why it is easy to gain serial access on the LS Pro'?
Look at the bottom of your LS Pro and search for a hole! This is the hole where we plug in that special connector. I posted that picture to show how it looks from the inside.
- I've managed to work out this is a USB-RS232 bridge chip, but we seem to end up with USB connectors at both ends. Huh?
The connector at the end of the LS Pro in fact is just a piece of plastic with 4 pins. it just fitted...thats all.
- Where does this connect on the LS Pro?
The hole at the bottom.
- Why are you using a bridge chip if you want to talk RS232 to the LS Pro? Most PC's still have an RS232 port. Use that and you don't need a chip, just some wire.
You still need a level shifter. These USB-Cables are cheaper compared to the components if you buy them alone besides...thats why.
+ Any chance of a circuit diagram? check here
- What's the pin-out of the board? Guessing from a forum post, the longest trace (rightmost in the board photo) is GND, then going left VCC, TX (as in "data coming from the LSPro", considering it's a DCE), RX (as in "data entering the LSPro"). So the colours in the photo with the usb connector are: Green-GND, Yellow-TX, Orange-RX (as before, considering the LSPRO as a DCE, so TX means out of the LSPro and RX into the LSPro). Am I right?
- Now that I have a cable (for a C25) I think I inverted TX with RX, the correct sequence (right to left) is GND, VCC, RX, TX - so in the usb connector in the photo Green-GND, Yellow-RX, Orange-TX

we're not suggesting anyone's ripping anyone off here, or has purposely gone out to plagiarise sigur rós music, because that might get us sued (which would be ironic). and in any case, you can get all the musicologists' reports you like and all they will tell you is that the chord sequence is "commonly used" or the structure is a "style-a-like" and not a "pass off"rós. or - in this case - that despite the fact that the two pieces are "strongly similar in terms of general musical style, instrumentation and structure" and "created with a knowledge of and/or reference to the works of sigur rós in general and 'hoppipolla' in particular", there is "insufficient evidence in the music to support a claim for infringement of the copyright". in other words change a note here, swap things around a bit there and, hey presto, it's an original composition. inspiration moves in mysterious ways.Always nice to see a band not go legal, but look for a more creative way to make their point.
what we wanted to do here was post series of ads that have made us go 'hmmm' and let you decide who's zooming who? but quite often when you go back and look for them you find the ads in question have disappeared off the radar (come in coca cola mexico, new zealand lotto, telmex chile, etc). anyway, here's a few expensively produced, gorgeously executed examples of brands who you might feel are inserting a little too much fromage in their homage.

Officials at all three hospitals in Sussex County say they are preparing for this year's early and intense flu season.
Officials at all three hospitals in Sussex County say they are preparing for this year's early and intense flu season.
This year's flu season is about a month ahead of schedule and cases are being reported throughout Delaware, according to state health officials.
Nanticoke Memorial Hospital in Seaford already has seen a 20 percent spike in emergency room visits due to patients with flu and flu-like symptoms, according to spokeswoman Ginger Jensen.
Patients exhibiting flu symptoms are being placed in private rooms, while patients, staff and visitors are required to clean their hands when entering and leaving those rooms. Masks also are required.
The hospital also is offering flu shots to adults at its main campus, 801 Middleford Road in Seaford, by appointment. Appointments can be made by calling (302) 629-6611, ext. 2642. There is no charge for flu shots, although a donation of $10 per vaccination is requested.
Official at Milford Memorial said vaccinations are the best way to prevent influenza and recommended seeking out the flu shots at physician offices, clinics and drug stores.
Milford Memorial has required its physicians, employees, volunteers and contractors to get the vaccine this year or wear surgical masks in patient areas.
The hospital also is making more inpatient beds available and increasing staff to deal with the influx of flu cases.
Taylor Porter, a spokesperson for Bayhealth, said the community also is experiencing an increase in Norovirus, commonly referred to as the "stomach bug," for which there is no vaccine. Symptoms include diarrhea and vomiting.
Officials at Beebe Medical Center in Lewes said visitors exhibiting cold- or flu-like symptoms are being required to wear surgical masks in the hospital.
They asked that people suffering from the flu avoid coming to the hospital except in cases of immediate medical emergencies.
While Beebe has not yet implemented its full emergency management flu plan, it is performing flu tests on outpatient and inpatient samples.
Of the 863 tests performed between Dec. 1 and Jan. 10., 154 tested positive for Influenza A and 8 tested positive for Influenza B, officials said.
More information about this year's flu outbreak can be found at Centers for Disease Control website at www.cdc.gov/flu.

An inmate who escaped the former East Boise Community Reentry Center 19 years ago has been located and arrested in South Dakota.
The Idaho Department of Correction says Pennington County Sheriff deputies arrested Rhonda L. Blake, 57, at a home in Rapid City. She walked away from the Boise Work Center back on Dec. 24, 1998 and had been on the run ever since.
She had at the center for violating her probation for illegal possession of a controlled substance. Blake is also wanted to a 2009 drunk driving case in South Dakota and after that's been settled, she will be extradited to Idaho to face escape related charges.

How To Downsize Without Losing Your Mind
My friend Nina called me panicking. She'd decided to give up her generous one bedroom apartment to move into half a converted garage, downsizing her living space so that her dogs have a yard to run around in. First step: paring down her life to the bare minimum and deciding how to make the most of the tiny space. I went to look at it and we evaluated the space, her stuff and her lifestyle. Here are a few tips if you find yourself in a similar situation:
Look at the pros: Yes, the place is miniscule, probably 300 square feet tops. But she has access to a pool and a hot tub, a big plus in LA. And there's the yard her dogs can run around in. And it's located close to where she works, so she'll be able to bike. Less stuff and less living space, yes, but, between the biking and the swimming, chances are she'll be a lot healthier. The layout of the space is also good: two rooms side by side, and, though the bathroom doesn't have a bathtub (Nina likes to de-stress with a good long soak), she can use the hot tub whenever she wants. And the closet is big.
Be realistic: However she looks at it, Nina's going to have to pare down her stuff; the space is tiny. We measured the space and evaluated her belongings. No way was all her furniture going to fit. So, we started by deciding which were the most necessary pieces in each room.
Evaluate Needs vs. Wants: In a bedroom, you only need a bed. In a living room, you only really need the couch.
Bring in the limited storage tricks: All the bath towels will be hung up in the bathroom, the bed linens will be stored under the mattress, the pots will be hung up, the kitchen (which is part of the living room and along one wall) will be fitted with a half-sized refrigerator.
Be creative about replacing what won't fit: Nina has two sets of side tables and a bureau. The bureau won't fit in the bedroom, so that will go. However, she's having trouble parting with the side tables. We may use two in the closet to hold underwear, socks and t shirts, and two at the foot of the bed. They'll replace the bureau and give her extra storage space (or, once everything's moved over to the space and she can see for herself that everything won't fit, she may be convinced that it's time to give up one pair of side tables).
Don't fight the small: Yes, there are many tricks to make a room look bigger, but sometimes small has its advantages. The bedroom is small, no denying that, so we're going for it. The look we're going for is jewel box: the room will be painted navy blue, the bed will be generous with linens. It will be like sleeping in a glamorous nest.
Make it look built in: That tiny bedroom will also hold Nina's bookcases. I suggested that she run them along one wall and paint them the same color as the wall; then we'll carefully organze her books and tchotckes. The difference between cluttered and cozy is organization.
Tighten up the color scheme: Navy blue bedroom with black and white accents, white living room with grey and black. A simple color scheme makes small look strong, and Nina can change things up by adding colorful accessories.
Reuse what you have: While the bedroom will be dark and cozy, the living room will be light and airy. Painted a bright white, it will look positively huge compared to the bedroom. Nina considered a white couch, but her tiny fur shedding dachsunds quickly eliminated that as an option. I convinced her that instead of selling her big down-filled sofa to her ex-boyfriend, she should keep it and have it recovered. After spending two days going from fabric store to fabric store, we hit upon a brilliant idea. Instead of donating the grey linen Ikea curtains, why not reuse them? The upholsterer okayed the material as sofa-appropriate, and I had him eliminate all the piping, make the back cushions lower and add wheels.
Think big: The big sofa doesn't dwarf the small room, it makes it look bigger. It's one of those classic small space tricks that seems counter-intuitive, but it works.
Think outside the box: The sofa can be wheeled to face the couch, or it can moved up to the Saarinen table for dinner (which, sacreligiously, we're also considering fitting with wheels). We're still considering options for a coffee table. I'm voting for upholstered ottomans with storage, but we'll wait on making any more decisions until after moving day, when everything's settled. That Saarinen table will be used as a desk, a dining table, and, because it's marble, will work as extra counter space to prep food. Yes, I know it may get pitted, even stained, but that, to me, is the beauty of marble. It wears beautifully and only takes on more of a patina as it ages.
Next week, after Nina moves, we'll take a closer look at what's working. Stay tuned!

I was checking the shop not so long ago, and once of the master services caught my eye immediately. I wanted to get it for my mom as it had her name all over it.
My mom is an independent writter and she has been given many great opportunities because of her work. However, she wanted to participate in a literary contest with international prestige and she didn't feel like she had what it took to enter the contest.
I ordered the Master Service for her hoping that it would assist her in the new journey she wanted to take.
My mother believes in intuition, so I told her about the gift I had for her and she was very happy about it even though I don't think she had much faith in it.
Ever since the date in which it was completed, she told me that she felt a great change in her life, we all have been able to witness the steps she has taken, including the one to participate in the literary contest.
We recently received notice from the contest commitee that she had been chosen as one of the finalists and she was now invited to the awarding ceremony.
Sometimes all it takes is a little push, and I have seen multiple blessings happen in my mother´s life ever since the master service was completed.
She was going through a hard moment in her life, and the possitive push she received from Creepy Hollows is most astonishing, certainly life changing.
My deepest grattitude and admiration for all of the Creepy Hollows crew, who have been sincerely involved in the most caring and affectionate way answering my emails with every possible question I ever had.
The commitment and high quality service provided from Creepy Hollows is above and beyond expectations!
You guys are the best!

I got the Master Vessel as a freebie. It was cast to my spirit and all of my spirits are bound to my spirit. Even when I'm sick or when I lack in sleep, my spirits are still very highly active. This proves that CH really take magic very seriously and use it to help make the quality of the lives of their customers better. They provide affordable services of very high quality. I am waiting for my next purchase. CH is an absolute blessing. More power! :)

Sonja's Savvy Sophistication Home Office
Name: Sonja Teri
Location: Silver Lake, Los Angeles, CA
Size: 700 square feet
Working from home has its definite benefits: setting your own hours, working in comfortable clothes, making meals from your own kitchen, working according to your own rhythms. But working from home also often means decorating and organizing around your personal life, with sections of a home or apartment often needing to fill double duty. One moment, a table serves as a desk for your computer, then later in the evening, it needs to be cleared for dining purposes. Work and life often overlap and blur into one another. Such is the case of today's sneak peek tech tour, a Silver Lake apartment that serves as both a personal and professional home base for online art gallery owner, Sonja Teri. Her modest sized apartment fills the role of living space and home office stylishly, but there's nothing modest about the captivating amount of artwork and fun tchotchkes that define a workspace as inspiring as the artwork she represents.
Unplggd Tour Survey:
My/our style: "Colorful, Cozy, Chic" with a touch of Savvy Sophistication
The inspiration for my home office/home theater: My approach for utilizing the space came about because I work from home doing freelance PR, Marketing running my online art gallery, Poster Child Prints (PCP). The challenge was creating balance between a workspace and living space and definitively separating the two. It was very important to me that it felt like a home and not an office but at the same time I needed the environment to be completely functional. I like having definitive space separations and enjoy giving each room their own identity; a loft space wouldn't have worked for me.
Biggest indulgence with respect to my space: All of my Jonathan Adler furnishings were an indulgence and my TV Credenza from Room & Board too! I bought them knowing that these pieces would be with me for some time.
Best advice about organizing or incorporating tech into the home: As far as organization, I recommend a functional system that you can stick to. Make sure it works for. Of course try to make everything wireless but if that's not possible then the less wires the better. If your electric wiring is limited then seriously take that into consideration when laying out your space. No one wants to see messy wires all over the place.
Wait to get the right thing so you only have to buy it once. What I mean is, I don't believe its worth getting a quick fix. If you can live without a desk for a while, then do. Its not worth getting one that you sort of like because you will end up replacing it sooner rather then later. If you get it right the first time, you will have it for the long run.
Everyone should put a little more effort into incorporating artwork into their living or work space. It drives me nuts to see IKEA artwork on walls because there are so many other options available now and you can purchase really cool artwork inexpensively. It pays to put a little effort into it. Every aspect is beneficial; you won't have the same artwork as millions of other people, you will be supporting artists and you will have a collector's piece that is worth more.
I'm not saying you have to spend a lot of money either. On my website for example, you can get limited edition screen prints for as low as $25 and they even come signed and numbered by the artist! That's why I started PCP actually, the website makes art accessible to collectors of all stripes from novice art enthusiasts to established connoisseurs. We sell high-quality prints at modest prices so that art is within reach to all. The quality is also extremely important and we use the finest materials ensuring the prints to withstand time. It's a win-win situation so go by your self some art!
Dream source for stuff: A coast-to-coast Estate Sale Tour. From Palm Springs for some mid-century modern to Miami for some vintage glamour, up to New England for some traditional classics and ending the tour in Midwest for some inexpensive flea market finds. That would be a dream road trip.

The main reason he wanted this though was because he could look in on Eddie not whilst he was in the living room...but whilst he was at work. He could even pivot the camera up/down, left/right or rotate 360 degrees all from his iPhone. Clever I know, apple never ceases to amaze me. So whilst I would be tending to Eddie's needs or cleaning the flat or scratching my backside, Steve would see it all. It even picks up sound so I would be sitting there doing 'motherly' things and then out of the corner of my eye, see the little camera move on its own accord. Knowing Steve was watching me and Eddie which was quite comical and we have fun with it. I would talk to the camera knowing he could hear me. It got a bit annoying because sometimes id do embarrassing things like...well fart...or walk around naked before I got in the bath or what ever & think "oh fudge did he see or hear that." The camera has many uses We go to Devon a lot to visit my family, so we can check in on the flat, no burglars...yet! but would be kind of freaky if we did see someone on the camera. I also went to Devon with out Steve and he had the boys round for poker night. I of course used this opportunity to spy on them whilst sitting in my nan's living room. Trying to catch them out but I moved the camera so they knew I was watching and decided pay me back by moving things around knowing it would annoy the hell out of me and since I was miles away, couldn't do anything about it.
4 iPhones can be linked to the camera. So both me and Steve are linked. My mum keeps asking me to do hers but erm no mother that is so not happening. It has great night vision and picks up great sound so alerts our phones when Eddie is awake although his voice is loud enough. You can even take photos from where you are as Steve did many times.
|night vision
The only downside it has is that if your internet isn't amazing as it works through wireless sometimes it won't work. The area we live in the internet isn't great to be honest so some days it works great but we do get the odd day where it doesn't work. We are moving soon to a better coverage area so this won't be a problem. Another downside is that it is very sensitive so even if Eddie turns over or makes a groan in his sleep the monitor picks this up and sends an alert to our phones. But the good thing is all you need to do is just check on him on the phone.
