Four Crimson scored in double-digits to lead Harvard past Brown Sunday (Jenn Leffew).
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Brogan Berry and Victoria Lippert combined for 20 of Harvard's 31 second-half points as the Crimson fended off Brown's comeback attempt for a 65-57 victory Sunday afternoon in Lavietes Pavilion.
Harvard (9-8, 2-1 Ivy League) led by as many as 18 points after the break but found itself tied with Brown (11-7, 2-2 Ivy League) at 54 with 4:31 to play. The Crimson rallied to close the game on an 11-3 run, however, with Berry netting eight of those points, to pick up its eighth Ivy League win in 10 chances at home.
Berry finished with a game-high 16 points and went 9-of-10 from the free-throw line. Lippert notched 14 points while going 4-of-7 from beyond the arc, and Christine Clark added 13 points on 5-of-7 shooting. Miriam Rutzen picked up her first double-double of the season, scoring a season-high 11 points while pulling down 11 boards for the second consecutive game.
Harvard shot 44.0 percent for the game but was just 7-of-22 from three and 14-of-23 at the line. Brown was held to 35.3 percent shooting, including a 4-of-18 mark from long range, and was led by Hannah Passafuime's 15 points.
Harvard came out firing on all cylinders and hit each of its first four shots en route to a 13-4 lead just over five minutes in. Rutzen and Emma Golen got the scoring started, and nine straight points by Clark gave the Crimson the nine-point edge. A jumper by Berry put the lead into double-digits and Lippert's first three-pointer of the day moved the score to 18-5.
Harvard began using a half-court trap midway through the period and the resulting pressure allowed the lead to grow to 32-13. The Crimson forced turnovers on four consecutive possessions to get to the 19-point advantage, and Clark capped an 8-0 run with a pair of free throws. Brown worked its deficit down to 14 points on a Sheila Dixon layup, and Harvard took the same margin into the locker room at the half, 34-20.
Clark led all scorers at the break with 13 points on 5-of-7 shooting, as the Crimson shot 50.0 percent from the floor and outrebounded Brown 17-14. The Crimson forced 12 Bear turnovers in the frame and scored 13 points off those turnovers, while limiting Brown to just 8-of-25 shooting from the floor.
Brown scored three straight points out of the break but a Rutzen bucket and Elle Hagedorn three-pointer made it a 39-23 game. Berry pushed the lead to 18 points at the line, 41-23, and with 14:57 to play Lippert buried a jumper for a 46-30 edge.
The Bears got back into the game with a 14-3 run over the next six-plus minutes which cut Harvard's lead to five, 49-44. Passafuime scored eight points during the stretch, which was capped off by a pair of Lauren Clark free throws. Berry made a strong drive down the right side of the lane to end the Crimson's drought, but Aileen Daniels scored a breakaway layup after three straight Brown free throws to move the score to 51-49.
Lauren Clark's three-pointer with 4:31 remaining tied the game at 54, marking the first time since the score was 2-2 that the Bears had held a share of the lead. Berry drained a three-pointer on Harvard's next trip down the court for a 57-54 advantage, and Daniels matched her two possessions later to even the score again. It was Lippert's turn to hit the big shot as she put the Crimson in front 60-57 with 2:09 remaining, and after two free throws from Berry with 0:43 on the clock Harvard held a 62-57 lead. Berry added three more at the line down the stretch, giving Harvard the 65-57 win.
The Crimson will return to action next weekend as it heads to New York State for a pair of games at Cornell and Columbia. Harvard will first face the Big Red Friday, Feb. 3 at 7 p.m. before taking on the Lions Saturday, Feb. 4 at 7 p.m.
Game Notes: Harvard has won eight of its last 10 Ivy League contests at Lavietes Pavilion and is 34-9 at home since 2008-09 … Four Crimson scored in double-digits, marking only the second time Harvard has accomplished the feat this season … Miriam Rutzen scored a season-high 11 points and grabbed 11 rebounds for her second career double-double and first of the year … Miriam Rutzen grabbed 11 rebounds in both of Harvard's games this weekend and has notched 10-plus rebounds four times this season … Victoria Lippert's four three-pointers matched her career-high … Christine Clark has scored in double-digits each game this season and in 19 straight dating back to last year … Harvard has outrebounded its opponents in 15 of 17 games this season.

This July marks our 11th anniversary of innkeepers at the Inns at Blackberry Common! When we came to Camden, Maine in 1998, we were young, full of anticipation and excitement, and ready to embrace the 10 rooms at the Blackberry Inn as our new home! 11 years later, we are on our 3rd five year plan, a little older, now up to 12 grandkids and have grown to become the Inns at Blackberry Common! With the addition of the Elms and renovations, we are now 18 rooms strong, and continue to greet many of the same people that have now become our friends! We still have lots of plans and things to do... the fun continues and hopefully will keep us busy for years to come! If we haven't met or haven't seen you in some time, join us this year and see how far we have come! And of course, we would be happy to show off the pictures of the grandkids too!

The 2019 Fusion is all about drivetrain options. Buyers have many engine and transmission choices, all of which produce stellar fuel economy. Engines include a 2.5L 4-cylinder, a 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo, a 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, a new 2.7L turbocharged V6, a 2.0L 4-cylinder hybrid and a plug-in hybrid system. A 6-speed automatic transmission is mated to all but the Hybrid and Energi plug-in hybrid, which feature a continuously variable transmission. The automatic is controlled by a small rotary dial in the center console. Front-wheel drive is standard on most trims, with all-wheel drive optional, except on the Fusion Sport, where all-wheel drive is standard.
For those looking for efficiency, the Hybrid, Energi plug-in hybrid, and 1.5L turbo are the engines of choice. The 1.5L turbocharged engine returns up to 37 mpg on the highway. The Fusion Hybrid is more efficient and will sip gasoline to the tune of 47 mpg in the city and 44 mpg on the highway. Finally the Energi plug-in hybrid is capable of running only on electricity for shorter trips, potentially limiting gasoline consumption to almost nothing.
The Fusion comes in five trims: S, SE, SEL, Titanium, and Sport. S models are the most basic but still come nicely equipped as is appropriate for a midsized sedan. The 175-horsepower 2.5L engine is the only power plant available on S models. Features include power door locks and windows, halogen projector headlamps, push-button start, a tilting and telescoping steering wheel and a trip computer. Ford's SYNC system is standard, as is an MP3-capable stereo with an auxiliary input jack, along with a rearview camera. The stereo and the cruise control can be operated by buttons mounted on the steering wheel.
The SE model enhances the level of basic equipment and also comes standard with the 181-horsepower 1.5L turbo, while the 245-horsepower 2.0L turbo and the 141-horsepower 2.0L Hybrid are available. Standard equipment on the SE includes a 10-way power adjustable driver's seat, heated mirrors and 17-inch wheels.
Stepping up to the Titanium edition will bring buyers a more luxury-oriented Fusion. Starting at just over $3,000, the Titanium edition comes with the powerful 2.0L turbocharged engine and is available with all-wheel drive. Polished 18-inch aluminum wheels are standard. Seating surfaces are leather and heated, and a 12-speaker Sony audio system with satellite radio provides in-car entertainment. The improved SYNC3 infotainment system is standard meaning there is an 8-inch LCD touchscreen in the center console that houses the optional navigation system. Two smaller configurable LCD screens are also embedded in the instrument cluster.
The Sport is the most athletic trim of the Fusion lineup, with its turbocharged 2.7L V6 making 325 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque and delivering all that power to standard all-wheel drive. Standard equipment includes 19-inch alloy wheels, quad exhaust tips, adjustable suspension dampers, aluminum sport pedals and 10-way power adjustable heated sport seating with Dark Earth Gray Miko suede and leather surfaces. Also included are continuously controlled dampers, which offer improved ride and handling on uneven surfaces.
The new top-of-the-line Platinum trim is the most luxurious Fusion to date, with heated and cooled front seats, a heated steering wheel, premium leather-wrapped interior surfaces, and adaptive cruise control.
Safety features on the Fusion are extensive. The car utilizes eight airbags as well as the standard suite of electronic safety equipment, including anti-lock brakes, traction and stability control. Emergency brake assistance is also standard on all Fusions, as is an electronic parking brake.

Are humans, pets making each other sick?
An article on SmartPlanet.com raises a most interesting question: Are animals making us sick?
A better question might be: Are humans and other animals making each other sick?
A new organization called the One Health Commission, is looking for the answers.
One Health was established in response to the increased threat of disease passed between people and animals. The commission recently held its first summit in Washington.
It's creation comes at a time when the crossing of disease between humans and other animals is in the news. Earlier this month, the first human transmission of H1N1, the swine flu, to a cat was reported in Iowa. More recently, the first confirmed death of a cat from
human-contracted H1N1 was reported in Oregon.
Following the recent One Health Summit, Mahr – former president of the American Veterinary Medical Association – was interviewed by Melanie Kaplan of Smartplanet.com, a site that explores new ideas.
Here are some of Mahr's comments:
On the need for One Health:
"There's a need to look more closely at human-animal-ecosystem health. Over the last three decades, of all the emerging human diseases in the world, 75 percent are zoonotic — transmitted from animals to people — including HIV, avian influenza, monkey pox and West Nile virus. …
"Those diseases and the changing environment have created an increasing concern because of the movement of people throughout the world. Viruses can pass around the world before they've even completed their incubation stage."
On the growing proximity of humans and other animals:
"The environment of bringing animals and people together more has increased — more than 70 percent of households in the U.S. have companion animals such as dogs, cats, birds, or guinea pigs. There's the potential for transmission between humans and animals, such as
internal parasites, worms, infections from external parasites (fleas, ticks) and fungal types of infections."
On the lessons of H1N1:
"H1N1…is spreading from people to people, but it's also been reported to have spread from people to ferrets, people to turkeys, people to pigs and most recently, people to cats….
"The goal of One Health is to work together to prevent the next H1N1 or the next avian influenza, and this can likely be achieved through detecting the disease at the onset, prior to it being transferred from animal to animal or animal to people. This is why
it's so important to address One Health on a worldwide basis, among people, animals and the ecosystem. It's all-encompassing."
Food for thought.

There's a new kid on the block.
SpayToday, a Lakewood nonprofit devoted exclusively to performing affordable spay and neuter surgeries, is marking its first year of operation.
SpayToday's founder, Dr. Angelina Piccoli, says it is the Denver area's only high-volume, high-profile spay neuter (only) clinic. Surgeries coast less than half the going rate at regular clinics, she said.
Piccoli. who has worked in private practice and for the Dumb Friends League and Table Mountain Animal shelter, said her goal is to reduce the number of unwanted animals that wind up in shelters.
"I realized that we'll never get the homeless pet population down until we do more spays and neuters," she said.
Piccoli said her long-term goal is to be self-sustaining – it now gets grants – and able to care for more pets of low-income owners. It handles a limited number now.
The clinic handles dogs, cats and rabbits and did 2,200 surgeries its first year.
Piccoli is assisted by a veterinary technician and volunteers.
Even though her clinic is low-cost, Piccoli said she does not feel she is competing with for-profit clinics.
"The vast majority of people coming here would not otherwise see a veterinarian," she said.
SpayToday does surgeries on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Piccoli said the clinic prefers reservations but can handle a limited number of walk-ins who show up during surgery intake hours, 7:30 to 8:30 a.m.
Spay Today, located at 1804 South Wadsworth Unit 2, can be reached at www.spay2day.org, or 303 984-7729.

Harrison Memorial Animal Hospital, Colorado's largest non-profit veterinary hospital, has altered clinic hours in an effort to better serve pet owners, it has announced.
New hours will include appointments available over the lunch hour during the work week and Saturday hours.
Established in 1990, Harrison Memorial Animal Hospital, located at 191 Yuma Street in Denver, provides donor-subsidized veterinary services for pets owned by economically disadvantaged families and individuals.
Harrison's new hours: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday and Saturday, 8 a.m.to noon, Closed Sunday. Contact 303.722.5800 ext. 525 for appointments.
Books for beasties – When customers of Tattered Cover book stores designate the Dumb Friends League as their nonprofit of choice, 1 percent of every purchase will be donated to the League. To sign up for the program, call (303) 322-1965, Ext. 2734. You'll
receive a membership card in the mail along with an instant reward coupon, good for 10 percent off your next purchase of $25 or more.
Memory tree – Show of Hands gallery iin Cherry Creek North is putting up a Memory Tree, and for an $8 donation, you can purchase an ornament in memory of, or in honor of, a pet who has passed away. You'll be able to write on and decorate the ornament, or attach a photo. All donations will go to the GRRR Golden Angel Fund. If you're not in the Denver area, you can purchase the ornaments at www.goldenrescue.com.

Help us to make this a fun gathering for your dog!
Weekly social hour on the large grass field for friendly dogs and their owners.
Yappy Hour is a one hour per week event that takes place on the beautiful green grass of the multi-use field at Posse Grounds Park. Under normal circumstances, City Code and Park Rules require all dogs to be on a leash and to remain off the athletic fields at the park, but during this event we get to bend those rules!
Know before you go:
- Owners must pick up after their pets.
- If there is an increase in the amount of off-leash users on the athletic fields during non-event times, this event may be canceled.
- PLEASE NOTE: the multi-use field is not a dog park. There are gaps in the fence where a pet could potentially squeeze through. There is no division of small dog vs large dog areas. Owners are responsible for the safety and behavior of their dogs.
Help us to make this a fun gathering for your dog!
For more event information, please contact the Sedona Parks and Recreation office at (928) 282-7098.

Navy Pier is the center of Chicago's fun-life with everything from amusement park rides to theaters and restaurants. Every Friday and Saturday night they even have fireworks at 9pm. It's touristy but don't miss it when you're in Chicago.
The Shedd Aquarium is located in the Chicago Museum Campus. It is one of the most popular attractions in Chicago and has over 25,000 fish with aquarium tanks ranging in size up to 5 MILLION gallons. The Museum Campus is a 57 acre lakefront park that also is home to the Adler Planetarium and the Field Museum of Natural History. The Field Museum is also home to Sue, the most complete and best-preserved Tyrannosaurus Rex fossil ever discovered. Sue dominates the main floor of Stanley Field Hall.
In the summer, Chicago has great beaches, but without the ocean salt. The lakefront is great for walking, jogging and biking all year. In fact, you can rent bikes by the hour or day at several lakefront locations (Navy Pier, North Ave Beach, Foster Beach) and riverwalk.
Chicago is also a premier sports town and is home to the Bears, Bulls and White Sox. Checkout a home game and then join other sports fan(atic)s at one of Chicago's great sports bars, including unique locations like the ESPN Zone.
Chicago is also a great place for kids! The Chicago Children's Museum is another big part of Navy Pier (57,00 sq feet in fact!) and has over 500,000 visitors every year. It's a great place for hands on learning for younger kids.
And don't forget Chicago's incredible restaurants, fantastic festivals and street fairs and top line concerts and live theater. Chicago is a great place to live or visit for work or pleasure.

I was scanning the last few posts in the group and feel as though I'm about to beat a dead horse but... does anyone want to read The Portable Atheist with me? http://www.amazon.com/The-Portable-Atheist-Essential-Nonbeliever/dp...
It's 480 pages divided into 47 very short readings (Do the math!) that would take less than an hour each. It's also allegedly informative and I've been meaning to read it for a bit so I can see how informative it is. From the last few posts it seems like everyone else is equally busy so I'm just going to start reading, posting after each segment and see if anyone joins in.
Monday Aug 6th I'll start the discussion for Chapter One. If that doesn't work for anyone, please let me know before I do it.

I've been looking for a good excuse to get back to my portable copy....I'll try to take you up on this!

Got an image you'd like to see in here first thing in the morning? Send it to email@example.com. Subject: Morning crap.
•Twenty-four hours of basketball might be over, but Elliot Williams is going to be seeing this game for a long time. A contested 3 at the buzzer clanked off the rim, and Kansas escaped with their reputation sullied, but not their record. Memphis probably shouldn't get too excited, as within 5 years at least four of these players will probably be under investigation for some kind of violation. (Thanks to Russell for the screengrab.)
•With Larry Johnson gone, at least the Chiefs' skill players are all upstanding citizens now, right? Oh. Dwayne Bowe, four games for flunking a drug test. Gotcha.
•Here's a neat little list of the top 25 highest paid coaches. Some fun notes: four of them are college coaches, one of them a baseball manager, and of the top 11, only Phil Jackson isn't a soccer coach. You can click through, but you'll have to trust me they're not MLS coaches.
•Brendan Shanahan calls it quits after 21 seasons, leaving just one active NHL'er who played for Hartford's final season: JS Giguere. I guarantee you'll win a bar bet with that bit of trivia. It's what Shanny would have wanted.
•Puck Daddy finds some incredible video of a Swedish goal celebration going horribly wrong, with flying bodies and broken glass, and for all I know this is par for the course in Sweden. And holy cow, did the hockey fans all wake up from hibernation? Two hockey notes in a row. Let this be a lesson to you soccer fans, if you tip us, we will post.
•Elizabeth Lambert, who was public enemy number one for those two days we cared about women's college soccer, says she's sorry, and it wasn't pent-up sexual aggression. Seriously. She said that.
•Another day, another Volunteer arrested. This time it's Nyshier Oliver, busted for swiping a $110 polo from Dillards. Before you laugh at risking a scholarship on Dillards - The Style Of Your Life! - remember that this is Knoxville, and anything resembling luxury goods are at least two state lines away.
You might have noticed a new tag on this post. We're trying something different, so this is your new wake-up call. Not that I advocate any of you waking up at this hour; it's ungodly. But let's see what happens. Change doesn't have to be scary.

Because there are two sides to every conflict, Mythic and Games Workshop publishing arm The Black Library have released Forged By Chaos, a novel that explores the fragile, deadly alliance of the forces of Destruction.
In Forged By Chaos, the third novel based on Warhammer Online, author C.L. Werner takes on Dark Elves. Greenskins, and the forces of Chaos as they explore the Bastion Stair in search of the Spear of Myrmidia, a relic that could ensure their victory over the Empire of Man.
"FORGED BY CHAOS provides readers with a horrific look into the warped minds of the soldiers of Destruction – the megalomania of the Dark Elves, the destructive single-mindedness of the Greenskins, and the unholy obsessions of Chaos", said Jeff Hickman, Studio Executive Producer for Mythic Entertainment. "C.L. Werner provides a never-before-seen look at a single side of the Realm vs. Realm conflict, and shows just how fragile, and deadly, this alliance of dark powers can be."
I've always been a huge fan of fantasy novels from the bad guys' point-of-view, at least when they don't simply portray the villains as uglier heroes. Hopefully Werner gets it right! Forged By Chaos is now available at fine booksellers everywhere.

The business owner must have to think and examine the current status of his/her workforce energy levels. Because positive frame of minds can reflect result oriented efforts. Motivation often brings great value which higher salaries cannot bring.
Here are some ideas on How to motivate and energize the workforce.
Motivate First
Think about the motivations that compel you to do a good job and to achieve great outcomes, and focus on them yourself. This way, you will set a good example for your employees to follow, and be more pleasant to work with. Think of it this way too: if you hate your job, and you're in charge, what's there to work up to? Be the best so that others have an incentive to match you. As Albert Schweitzer once said, "Example is not the main thing in influencing others; it is the only thing."
Know your employees
Get some insight into the lives of the people you hired. Learn about who they are, and where they are going. Find out what motivates each individual to do a good job so you can capitalize on it.
Use smarter goals
Convey goals that are specific, realistic, and measurable. As long as your employees can see the light at the end of the tunnel, they will keep working towards it with enthusiasm and focus.
Delegate authority
You know the bottom line. Instead of micro-managing everyone else's work, explain to them what your bottom line is, and assign them a certain amount of authority so that they can take charge of the task at hand. By opening up new possibilities, your employees will be encouraged to do the job the way they would do it if they were in charge.
Work out a reward system
- Provide a clear system of incentives for your employees, such as:
- awards and recognition
- a pay raise or bonus
- increased time off
- more responsibility (or less)

Nobody wants to be known as the dirtiest, at least not when it comes to air pollution.
The good news is that since 1975, overall new passenger car emissions of greenhouse gases have decreased, and fuel efficiency has increased. The trends seem likely to continue, based partly on technological innovation, partly on more stringent government regulation, and partly on consumer interest and demand.
Electrics, hybrids and alternative fuel vehicles have received a lot of attention this year, and promise to remain in the spotlight during 2012. But the overwhelming majority of new light-duty vehicles to be sold next year are likely to be powered by traditional gasoline internal combustion engines. As promising as new technologies look, manufacturers and regulators must continue to focus on improving the efficiency and cleanliness of gas engines in order to have a significant impact on air quality.
Forbes.com slideshow: See America's dirtiest vehicles
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has issued new Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards for model year 2012–2016 passenger cars and light trucks, in coordination with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which has issued national greenhouse gas emissions standards. NHTSA states that "the environmental need to improve fuel economy is manifest. The U.S. transportation sector is one of the largest contributors to total U.S. and global anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases. Concentrations of greenhouse gases are at unprecedented levels compared to the recent and distant past, which means that fuel economy improvements to reduce those emissions are crucial to addressing the risks of global climate change."
According to the U.S. Government's Research and Innovative Technology Administration's Bureau of Transportation Statistics, in 2009 (the most recent year for which figures are available), 234,467,679 light duty vehicles were registered for on-road use in the U.S. Market information company J.D. Power and Associates projects that 13.8 million new vehicles will be sold in 2012 (including fleet sales), up from 12.6 million for 2011.
A 2009 study by Thomas A. Becker, Ikhlaq Sidhu and Burghardt Tenderich for the University of California Berkeley's Center for Entrepreneurship & Technology predicted that "in the baseline forecast electric cars account for 64 percent of U.S. light-vehicle sales by 2030 and comprise 24 percent of the U.S. light-vehicle fleet." The increase in the adoption of electric vehicles would result in a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. "When powered by non-polluting sources of electricity, electric vehicle deployment results in a 20-69 percent decline in 2030 greenhouse gas emissions from U.S. light-vehicles over 2005 levels. Emissions are 8-47 percent lower when electric vehicles are charged using the current electricity grid," the study concluded.
For now, gasoline remains the dominant fuel for light-duty vehicles. The government, the oil industry and the auto industry have attacked the issue of air quality from two fronts: the chemical composition of the fuel itself; and improved efficiency and emissions controls in gasoline engines and exhaust systems.
The most targeted tailpipe emission for light-duty vehicles is carbon dioxide, and for good reason: "CO2 emissions represent 95–99 percent of the total greenhouse gas emissions from a passenger vehicle. CH4 (methane), N2O (nitrous oxide) and HFC (air-conditioning refrigerant) emissions represent roughly 1–5 percent of the total greenhouse gas emissions from passenger vehicles, after accounting for the global warming potential of each greenhouse gas," according to an EPA publication.
To determine our list of America's Dirtiest Vehicles of 2012, we relied on NHTSA's database of fuel economy ratings and the EPA's Green Vehicle Guide, two publicly available resources. We also used the Carbon Footprint calculator, which helps to translate the information from the EPA into a measurement of metric tons of CO2 emissions.
As in the past, we have excluded heavy-duty vehicles (which are not currently subject to federal fuel-economy regulations) and vehicles which we consider "exotics," like the Bugatti Veyron. Nearly every exotic vehicle would rank as the dirtiest vehicle in its class, by virtue of a concentration on performance over fuel economy concerns. Because of their low sales volume and small distances driven annually, exotics don't have the environmental impact of popular production vehicles, and environmental concerns are rarely part of the buying decision for an exotic.
EPA and NHTSA estimates are based on the assumption that vehicles will be driven 15,000 miles annually, and that 55 percent of those miles will be city miles, with the rest classified as highway miles. Using the Carbon Footprint tool, we calculated metric tons of CO2 emissions based on the same 15,000-mile annual estimate. We used the EPA's Air Pollution Score, which accounts for "vehicle tailpipe emissions that contribute to local and regional air pollution." Emissions standards are for carbon-containing compounds (including hydrocarbons); oxides of nitrogen; particulate matter; carbon monoxide; and formaldehyde. Results are reported as a whole number score from 1-10, with "1″ representing a minimum passing score and "10″ representing a perfect score, with no tailpipe emissions at all. We used the California standards, which are the most stringent in the U.S. for 2012.
The EPA numbers were the first hurdle. Vehicles with the lowest (worst) scores were then compared based on their CO2 emissions. The vehicle with the most emissions was then determined to be Dirtiest in Class.

Wonder how to work catwalk cool into your own closet? Here's how to translate the trends for real life.
Love it or loathe it, fashion designers are smitten with sheer fabrics. The often recurring trend popped back up last fall, and it's sticking around for spring, as well. From subtle inserts and see-through sleeves to large panels and entire dresses, tops, pants and skirts made sheer, the look landed on a slew of runways.
Burberry Prorsum, Stella McCartney, Rebecca Taylor, Erdem, Rachel Zoe, Alberta Ferretti, Dolce & Gabbana, Carolina Herrera, 3.1 Phillip Lim, Celine, Elie Saab, Saint Laurent, Balenciaga, Valentino, Balmain, Alexander Wang, Calvin Klein, Jill Stuart, BCBG, Rag & Bone, Lacoste, Diane von Furstenberg, Tibi, Zac Posen – a slew, right? – all sent varying degrees of sheer styles out on their catwalks.
But while a runway model can wear a sheer dress over a pair of granny panties with no bra, that probably wouldn't go over too well at the office. You can, however, work the trend into your wardrobe while keeping your modesty intact. Here are three ways to wear sheer for spring.
THE RUNWAY: Milly by Michelle Smith, spring 2014
A sheer white pencil skirt over vintage-inspired orange briefs, along with a bra top and black gloves might look cool and edgy on the runway, but in the real world it would draw odd stares – even at the beach.
It's all about layers: Sheer looks light and airy – and not at all scandalous, when it's worn as a layering piece. We love a printed top over a tank that offers just a hint of see-through, or a cami under a chiffon blouse for a look that works at the office or on the weekend. And, for a great Boho vibe, a sheer cardigan adds style to your basic T-shirt or tanktop.
The Limited sheer layering top, $29.97, thelimited.com; BP sheer kimono sleeve cardigan, $38, Nordstrom.com; Old Navy embroidered crinkle-chiffon top, $34.99, oldnavy.com
Give just a peek with panels: When you just want to show a hint of skin, a sheer panel or insert will do the trick. Look for a sheer sleeve, neckline detail or stripe across the bottom of a skirt or dress to be stylish and demure.
Taylor Dresses fit and flare dress, $158, Nordstrom.com; Banana Republic sheer insert blouse, $69.50, bananarepublic.com; Asos midi skirt with sheer hem, $72.41, asos.com
Opt for overlays: Get a hint of sheer without worrying about folks seeing your skivvies by choosing a dress or skirt with a slip-type liner.
H&M strapless dress, $24.95, hm.com; Old Navy printed chiffon maxi skirt, $34.95, oldnavy.com; Asos sheer midi skirt, $33.87, asos.com

Light weight for high speeds
Light, soft und incredibly breathable: no climb is too strenuous and no tour too exhausting for our Tasmanian light sheep. With our TOFANA VEST for men in the MERINO LIGHT SKIN series, the light sheep leaves any unnecessary weight at home.
Our MERINO LIGHT SKIN collection has been designed for ski tourers with special requirements. Fine Tasmanian merino fibers on the inside ensure that this lightweight softshell jacket is comfortable to wear. And the merino wool on the inside is woven into a relief structure to reduce weight even further and achieve optimum thermal insulation.
The two-layered collar with merino wool on the inside protects against wind and cold, while elastic waist and sleeve hems ensure that the TOFANA VEST fits perfectly even during extreme activity. The bonded breast pocket has room for small items such as a map, cell phone or trail bar and can be easily accessed, even when wearing a backpack.
The special 2-way stretch material and athletic cut give you the maximum freedom of movement you need on the mountain. At the same time, the polyamide on the outside of the ski touring vest is robust and protects against abrasion. Thanks to DWR treatment, the TOFANA VEST is also water resistant, making it perfect for ambitious ski tourers who value protection and light weight.
And of course, the harmonious color combinations and asymmetrical lines make this Tasmanian light sheep a real eyecatcher! As such, the TOFANA VEST for men has everything the NAKED SHEEP needs on a ski tour.
Scaled down to function
The NAKED SHEEP loves the feeling of unlimited freedom. No heart rate monitor, no records. Instead, it seeks those important moments that are far away from the hustle and bustle. The NAKED SHEEP is light on expeditions but never takes risks. Like in the new COLLECTION, FUNCTION and PROTECTION are his main focus. It's the only way that the NAKED SHEEP can adapt to conditions.
Merino wool
Since 1995, merino wool has been an integral component of ORTOVOX's mountainwear. Our merino wool comes from happy sheep reared on monitored, ethical sheep farms. The wool is naturally 100% ecological and therefore super sustainable. Thanks to the small-diameter fibers in its fine woolen threads, merino wool feels extremely soft and comfortable on the skin. In addition to comfort, merino wool also provides an ideal personal body climate by regulating both moisture and temperature. It is also easy to care for and, thanks to its antibacterial effect, odor neutralizing.

Three weeks ago, before it even debuted, I recommended giving Guiding Light's new production style a chance. After a week or so of shows, here are some first impressions:
THE GOOD: Some of the new sets read very nicely on screen. In particular, the outdoor sets and the larger sets look great. Many of the outdoor scenes do a good job of doing what this whole process should do: namely, open up the perspective on what you're seeing without distracting you from what's happening on screen.
For example, there was a scene last week with Josh and Reva at a bridge after Jonathan left town again, and it really worked well because it did seem so natural — absolutely true to life [Read more…]

Sunday Supper: Grilled Spaghetti with Meatballs
Editor's note: Each Saturday afternoon we bring you a Sunday Supper recipe. Why on Saturday? So you have time to shop and prepare for tomorrow.
Get the Recipe
I first encountered this wackadoodle technique—grilled spaghetti—in "Easy Entertaining with Michael Chiarello." Needless to say, I've been hooked ever since.
However, there are a few things to know before digging in. Though it works with most any tomato sauce, ones with a smoky edge are especially nice. I like to use fire roasted diced tomatoes as part of my base, along with some chipotle chilies to add both spice and smoke. The sauce picks up another layer of flavor when left to simmer atop the grill grates, more than it'd get with just a stove top simmer.
Chiarello's original recipe calls for steaming meatballs separately in the oven before adding them to the sauce. I tried that method side-by side with simply adding them to the sauce and I can tell you the latter proved superior, lending full-bodied, meaty flavor to the insidiously spicy sauce. (Cut back on the jalapeno and, possibly, chipotle, if you have a tender tongue.) You might be tempted to up the grilled flavor by grilling the meatballs before adding them to the sauce, but I'd avoid the urge—the meatballs are particularly tender specifically because they get cooked through in the sauce without any hard heat beforehand.
Besides, you get plenty of smoky grilled flavor from the actual pasta. Pasta on the grill? Yup. The trick is to use a perforated grill pan to allow the smoke and heat to pass through, but keeps the spaghetti from falling onto the coals or burners.
You start by par-cooking the pasta in boiling water, but resist the urge to cook it through—I go with about half the recommended package cooking time. The texture you get from the final, grilled dish is what it's all about. Properly grilled pasta takes on a light char and pleasant chewiness, making it distinct from other, more conventional approaches. Cook it too much, though, and it'll be limp and lifeless.
There's one more thing regarding the pasta to keep in mind. Disposable grill grates aren't at every corner store. If you can't find one, go ahead and poke holes in a regular foil tray. It won't have quite the same effect, but it'll do in a pinch.
Pro-tip: Have leftovers? Shove the goods between two slices of grilled, garlicky Texas toast.
