Signs that life as you know it has ended
Sometimes the universe sends you signals you just can't ignore. Such as:
The old bed and breakfast you just bought gives off waves of wild energy.
The lavender you plant, with which you plan to create specialty dishes for the inn, begin to attract the fae.
The waitress at the diner in town turns into a demon, and suddenly wants you out of the picture – forever.
The veterinarian you're falling hopelessly in love with becomes confused by strange hauntings, becomes emotionally conflicted and oh yeah, now bears The Mark on his chest.
Your grandmother tells you your unusual family history – that your ancestor is Iris, Goddess of the Rainbow.
And that your mother had to leave the family to protect you from dark forces, who killed your father.
But then, if you're as perceptive as my heroine Jocelyn Gibson, you suspected all that already. Joss had long ignored her family heritage – her grandmother's unusual skill with herbs, her aunt's too-accurate tarot and palm readings, and her own childhood memories of fairies. But her past catches up to her once she buys an old Victorian, and the events that converge convince her that life as she knew it is gone, but at the same time, she's come home.
Have you ever had an A-Ha moment like that in your life, when you knew things had changed irreversibly?

The Magic of Lavender is the first book in The Goddess Connection series, which says: Every woman should embrace her inner goddess. What's your connection? I have several more novels in this series in mind to follow. In each, the heroine will be somehow connected to a goddess. Her lifelong quirks will become strengths once she finds her true place in the world, and accepts herself for who she really is.
Read the blurb, excerpt and "Casting Call" (who I envisioned as these characters) at: http://catemasters.blogspot.com/2009/05/magic-of-lavender-contemporary.html
Cate Masters loves stories with a dash of magic, mayhem and romance! Multipublished in contemporary to historical, sweet to erotic, fantasy/dark fantasy to speculative, she sometimes mashes genres. Reviewers have described her stories as "so compelling, I did not want to put it down," and "such romantic tales that really touch your soul."
When not spending time with her family, she can be found in her lair, concocting a magical brew of contemporary, historical, and fantasy/paranormal stories with her cat Chairman Maiow and dog Lily as company. Find her at http://catemasters.blogspot.com, and other strange nooks and far-flung corners of the web.

If there's one thing that we know about Campagnolo, it's that it loves to celebrate milestones. And why shouldn't it? After all, we can't think of another company whose story runs parallel to and, at times dictates, the story of cycling. If you couldn't tell, the names Tulio and Valentino warm our hearts, and the reason for this is obvious to any Campy lover. Their innovative spirits have created designs that molded the zeitgeist of road racing, regardless of its era. Whether it be the first quick-release, the Cambio Corsa dual-rod gear changer, or the first 11-speed gruppo, technological change has always been driven by Campy. Perhaps this is why everyone from Bartali to Indurain would ride nothing else? And so, to celebrate this lineage of excellence, Campagnolo has dignified its 80th year with the limited edition 80th Anniversary Group.
Over the years, Campagnolo has graced us with both monumental and subtle anniversary celebrations. Most recently, there was the 75th anniversary book, 'Campagnolo: 75 Years of Cycling Passion,' that you'll find on every desk in our office. Before that was a lesson in subtlety with Campy's 60th anniversary, which marked the last year that components didn't have their group name printed on them, and the abandonment of the original C Record design. But, most relevant to this 80th group, is the Campagnolo 50th Anniversary Group. Released in 1983, Campagnolo produced about 10,000 of them, and even today, this group's gold-plated Super Record design is the object of desire for any serious collector. In fact, Campy 50th demonstrates two common truths for us: It's important to obtain these while you can, and that their value is nearly certain to increase. And while the first two numbers of 50th belong to Campagnolo and the late Pope John Paul II, it's not uncommon for sub-200 mint sets to sell for upwards of $10,000, today.
However, while Campagnolo continues to design for the future, it does recognize the contributions of the past. That's why the 80th Anniversary Group includes the mechanical version of its Super Record 11 Group. It features the full Super Record gruppo from the shifters to the cassette. And making it more than something to look at, Campagnolo is providing the group in both standard and compact chainring configurations, and in 170, 172.5, and 175mm crankarm lengths.
This ideology was continued through the development of 80th's exclusive finish. Campagnolo was pressed to select a finish that exuded the elegance of the brand, while still being able to protect the legacy pieces of the group. Accordingly, Campy spent countless hours developing new techniques like humid-state micro-sanding and opaque finishing procedures. Even the 80th logo itself was subjected to months of research and testing in order to ensure its resistance to harsh cleaning agents and riding. As a result, the distinguishing trademarks of the 80th Group will last a lifetime.
Each 80th Anniversary Group is numbered, and yes, these are being produced in a very limited run by Campagnolo. The Group comes in its own commemorative suitcase, complete with a brand retrospective page at its interior. In addition to this, you'll find that the 80th Group also comes with an exclusive carbon fiber water bottle cage, and yes, it is marked with the 80th trademark.
The Campagnolo 80th Anniversary Group is available in the color Black and in both a standard 39x53t and compact 34x50t chainring configuration. Both of these options are also available in 170, 172.5, and 175mm crankarm lengths. The groupset is supplied with a braze-on front derailleur, English threaded Ultra-Torque bottom bracket cups and an 11-25t cassette. Please note, that this is a complete Super Record 11 group, and that we cannot ensure a specific production number with your purchase.

Boom! It's out.
And on that note, I don't think Bambietta is done for. She should still be able to use the absorption techinque (like Opie did with Ayon) since the Bankai is now pure reiatsu and my guess is that she will, but there's going to be some kind of catch with that related to loss of life.
Good chapter overall. Not just talking and one-shoting.

Utah has been through this fight time and time again. Accepting Obamacare's Medicaid Expansion would put the state at risk of massive tax increases, cuts to roads and education, or all three. Other state's who've tried Medicaid Expansion under Obamacare have been forced into tax increases or major cuts to critical priorities when costs ran way out of control.
The plan would cost the state up to $328 million dollars while increasing the national debt by even more.
Utahns don't need more Obamacare and they don't need its Medicaid Expansion plan either – the risks are just too great.
Americans for Prosperity recommends the defeat of this bill.

On April 30 at approximately 10:36 p.m. the alarm sounded at Boyd's Pharmacy in Castle Dale.
Emery County Sheriff LaMar Guymon said, "The Emery County Sheriff's Office Dispatch called Sgt. Gayle Jensen who was in the area. He observed what appeared to be a forced entry on the west doors of the building. He also observed a vehicle parked along the west side of the building. Sgt. Jensen called Sgt. Tom Harrison for back-up. The Sheriff's Emergency response team also responded along with two highway patrolmen who were at the sheriff's office booking prisoners at the time of the call.
"The response team surrounded the building and then entered the building. The suspect was arrested without incident. The subject was booked into the Emery County jail and has since posted bail. He was looking for prescription drugs. The suspect was listed as Richard W. Jackson of Huntington, DOB 3-12-1959. He has been charged with burglary of a building and criminal mischief both third degree felonies," said Sheriff Guymon.

Author of Ed Engoron's Choclatique, Running Press, 2011
In my new book, Choclatique (Running Press), I wrote that the best birthday party I ever had was my eighth where mom made old-fashioned, Texas State Fair-style corndogs and chocolate cupcakes. Now this was many years ago when you could find cupcakes in any little bakery. They were nothing special—just something else to fill the display case made with the leftover cake batter and decorated with that inexpensive chocolate compound frosting. At holiday time they would top them with a few sprinkles to add to the festive mood.
I was always partial to the chocolate cupcakes from Royal Bakery just outside Beverly Hills. This was our family's one-stop bakery; they made really great breads and pretty good pastry. The cupcakes were a nickel a piece. I could put down about 3 at a time. When they raised the price on them, mom put me on a 1950's style austerity diet and limited me to just one—which was probably a good thing.
And then the unthinkable happened… cupcakes all but disappeared. They were no longer displayed between the Bavarians and the Danish. You could still find Hostess crème filled "belly bombers" in the grocery aisle, but cupcakes were nowhere to be found in the bakery.
So you can imagine I got all excited when the first Sprinkles opened about a mile east of our office in Beverly Hills. Now, if you have had your head in the sand for the past 5 years or so and don't know about them, Sprinkles is the store that single-handedly brought back cupcakes. I like to call it the Sprinkles Phenomena. These are not just any cupcakes, but these are designer cupcakes made with different batters and frostings, well merchandised and uniquely decorated in and sold in an upscale environment that always seems to have a block-long line of hungry customers, devoted Hollywood stars and serious epicureans alike trying to get in. That's not all that got upscaled—somewhere along the line the price per single cupcake rose to $3.50 each or $39 a dozen.
As you can imagine, since Sprinkles first opened, locally owned cupcake shops have been popping up all over the place. While some have argued that this trend won't last, the plethora and popularity of shops opening up all over the U.S. —and now the world—say otherwise. There is even an entire Food Network competition celebrating the cupcake.
Of course, many of us have our own favorite cupcake shop near to where we live, but during these troubled times a $3.50 cupcake is rather dear, so why not make your own? As a chocolate cupcake fanatic and a pastry chef, I still like to make my original recipe which tastes pretty much like the cupcakes I used to get from the long-gone Royal Bakery. Why not give my recipe a try?
The ChocolateDoctor's Easy-to-Make Chocolate Cupcakes
Total Time: 35 minutes
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Bake Time: 20 to 22 minutes
Makes: 12-14 Cupcakes
1/4 pound (1 stick) butter, room temperature
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
2 eggs, room temperature
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, Choclatique Rouge Cocoa Powder
1/2 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Note: Use the best cocoa powder you can afford; it makes a difference.
- Preheat the oven to 400º F, then turn it down to 350º F just prior to baking.
- Using an electric mixer fitted with a whisk, cream the butter until it is soft, then add the sugar. Beat about 4 minutes longer until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs, one at a time beating until they are well combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients and whisk to incorporate them.
- Add 1/3 of the dry ingredients to the butter and sugar and beat it just to combine. Add 1/2 of the liquids (milk and vanilla), scrape down bowl and beat to combine. Continue adding the dry and wet ingredients alternately. Finish with the dry ingredients. Do not over-mix.
- Fill muffin tins 2/3′s of the way and bake for about 20-22 minutes. Allow to cool before decorating.
Old Fashioned, Delicious Chocolate Buttercream Frosting
1/4 pound (1 stick) butter, softened
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, Choclatique Rouge Cocoa Powder

- Beat the butter and the cocoa until smooth, then add the sugar 1 cup at a time, beating with each addition.
- Add the milk and the vanilla extract and beat for about 3 minutes.
- Using a disposable pastry bag pipe the frosting on top of the cupcakes.
- "Sprinkle" with Choclatique White or Dark Chocolate Curls & Real Chocolate Decoratifs.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
It's almost summer and the Emery County Education camps are getting ready to roll. There is still time to sign up for these unique education experiences for elementary through high school students. Ashley Stilson attended the paleo camp last year. It will be held this year from June 16-20. Stilson said, "My heart beat in anticipation as I carefully chipped away more and more of the hard, dull gray rock that covered our quarry site. Leaning down carefully, I thought I saw a small spot of deep, dark, dark black.
"I took a quick drink from my nearby water bottle. The bottle almost slipped from my sweaty hands that shook from excitement.
"As I looked around, I saw my friends also busily chipping away at the rock, searching and searching. One of my new friends, all the way from North Carolina, stopped to take a drink too. We both smiled. This had definitely been worth the money.
"Our tarp riggings provided much needed shade from the hot sun that beat down over our heads, and the breeze from the battery powered fans seemed to blow away most of the heat. Though camp was probably a two-minute hike down, and we had been miles away from civilization for three days, we all felt right at home in the desert sand.
"Another out-of-state digger, from Washington D.C., stopped for a moments rest. I was impressed when I learned about the out-of-state kids.
Who knew people from the other side of the country were interested in our little Emery County camps.
"As I turned back to my project, I saw one of our expert camp directors from the CEU Prehistoric Museum bending down to take a look at my progress. He smiled at me.
"Well, I think you have just found your first dinosaur bone." My smile grew as I hurriedly but carefully whittled off the rock that had surrounded just one of the many pitch black bones that had been buried in the ground undiscovered maybe for millions of years. Until now.
"Later, I learned, we would go back to the CEU dorms to wash up and then on to the lab where we would study the bones that we found. Out of the many fantastic camps that the Emery County Education Council was putting on, this was definitely one of the best," said Stilson.
Another camp which is a big success is the archaeology camp held at Range Creek. This camp is hosted by the University of Utah who has summer camps there for graduate students. The opportunity for high school students to participate in college age field work is a great experience for these younger students. The camps allow them to work alongside the UofU professors and especially Duncan Metcalfe who is the chief archaeologist for the Range Creek site. There have been hundreds of documented pithouses and sites located within the canyon. The students will help with documentation and some excavation has begun at Range Creek. The students camp right at the ranch house and the University provides the learning experiences for the students. They are also treated to lectures by Corrine Springer who is the hostess at the ranch house and an accredited biologist who lectures the students on the Range Creek area. A truly unique experience awaits the high school students who are ready and willing to get out in the field with the experts. The Range Creek camp is slated for July 14-18.
The elementary age students will be able to attend dinosaur day camps on June 16-17. The students will learn all about the dinosaurs and how to excavate bones. They will each receive a dino day packet which includes many hands on activities. Each student will paint their own dinosaur made from a plaster cast.
For junior high age students the CSI: Emery County camp will be hosted by the Emery County Sheriff's Office. The students will learn about finger prints, foot print imaging, crime scene investigation and will learn about the various jobs available within the Sheriff's Office. They will help solve a crime at a mock crime scene. They will learn how to search for clues. They will be provided with a T-Shirt and other souvenirs of their day as a crime fighter. They will be treated to a pizza lunch. The CSI camp is June 20.
Another educational camp will be the computer technology camp on June 24, this camp will be taught by the Emery County IT department and teaches computer literacy. Students will be instructed on computer operations and will learn to design their own flyers and advertisements. They will go through the various computer programs and learn how to apply them in useful applications which will help them in their every day school work.
Marc Stilson is the Education Council chairman he said the council was recently approved for a science grant from the state. "There were $250,000 worth of requests and only $150,000 in grants available and we were able to secure a grant for our science camps. We are very excited about it. Our camps are very worthwhile and offer educational opportunities you just can't get in the classroom. The paleo and archaeology camps are world class and offer unique learning experiences for local as well as students from around the country," said Stilson. Call 381-5576 to register.

How To Remote Control Your Home Computer From Anywhere With VNC
VNC allows you to remotely access a computer and use its desktop, either over the Internet or from another room in your house. Windows includes a Remote Desktop feature, but it's only available in Professional editions of Windows.
Some people may prefer TeamViewer or another service instead, but VNC allows you to install and manage your own server without using a centralized service. VNC clients and servers are available for all platforms, but we'll be covering Windows here.
Image Credit: photosteve101 on Flickr
Install a VNC Server
First, you'll need to install a VNC server on the computer you want to access remotely. We'll be using TightVNC here, but there are other VNC servers you can also use, such as UltraVNC.
TightVNC installs itself as a system service by default, so it will always be running in the background as long as your computer is on. (Of course, you can always disable the service manually.) It also automatically allows itself in the Windows firewall – if you use a different firewall, ensure that the firewall isn't blocking TightVNC or you won't be able to connect.
Be sure to secure your VNC with a strong password, especially if you're exposing your VNC server to the Internet!
After the quick installation process, TightVNC will now be running on your computer. You can use the TightVNC Service – Control Interface option in your Start menu to configure your server.
One important setting you'll want to change is the ports TightVNC uses. The default port used for VNC is 5900 – you can increase your security by changing it to another port. People scanning for open VNC servers will try t o connect at port 5900, ut generally won't notice VNC servers running on other random ports, such as 34153.
You may also want to change the Web Access port for the same reason — or disable web access entirely.
Forward Ports & Set Up Dynamic DNS
Your computer is now running a VNC server, so you'll be able to connect to it from other computers on your local network. If you want to connect to it from the Internet, you'll have to do a few more things.
First, you'll need to forward the VNC server's port on your router. This process is different on every router, but you'll have to use your router's web interface to forward ports.
- Read More: How To Forward Ports on Your Router
You may also want to set up a dynamic DNS hostname for your home network. Internet service providers often change the IP address assigned to home networks, which means that you may be unable to connect to your home computer if your home IP address changes.
Connect to Your Computer
With a VNC server running on the remote computer, you can use a VNC client on another computer to connect. TightVNC includes a VNC client – you can install TightVNC on another computer and deselect the server option in the install process to only install the viewer. Once it's installed, you'll find the TightVNC Viewer in your Start menu.
Enter the address of your home computer to connect. You can use several different types of addresses:
- Use the computer's local IP address if you're on the same local network as the computer.
- Use your home network's IP address if you're accessing the computer over the Internet.
- Use your dynamic DNS hostname if you set up dynamic DNS and are accessing your computer over the Internet.
For more information about determining the local or remote IP addresses your computer is using, read: How to Find Your Computer's Private & Public IP Addresses
If you're using a different port for your VNC server (as you probably should be), append the port number after two colons.
After connecting, you'll see the remote computer's desktop in a window on your screen.

Wow, HTG. I'm quite shocked. You're actually suggesting using VNC over the Internet.
Never, ever follow this guide for the open Internet – without using some sort of tunneling protocol (SSH even).
VNC is unencrypted by nature. Hence the reason it isn't used over the internet.
PLEASE HTG, don't be advising people to do this over the internet without a secure tunneling protocol.
Wow. Cool!
Is this possible to connect with a smartphone?
I have done it over a LAN with a smart-phone, however scrolling a full desktop on a tiny 4″ screen gets old, fast.
Tablets are much easier.
Did you use this app?
ffs just use http://www.teamviewer.com – far more secure and deals with tunnelling through firewalls..
Combo is right, there should be some level of encryption before establishing a remote session from the internet. asymmetric encryption preferred…
**Cambo** sorry misspelled name..
I'd reccomend TeamViewer as a much better solution. There's a portable apps client you can carry on a USB key, the data being transferred is encrypted using 256-bit encryption, and there's no messing about with firewalls or port forwarding. You can also set it up as a service like TightVNC.
I have to "double-down on the opening and closing remarks addressing the open-dangers and the need for a secure tunneling access rather than leaving everything exposed. You folks offer much valuable – and needed – advice for many; but omitting "that one" was pretty surprising!
Combine this with Hamachi to add security
I've used Teamviewer for a while now and love it. However, VNC over the same connection seems "snappier."
Any suggestions to make Teamviewer more fluid over a typical cable connection?
Bit of a flop then?
Quite involved and complicated – I agree with Mathew above – it's Teamviewer all the way for me. I have had only success using it and it is so-o-o-o simple to use.
Couldn't you do this with a little more security for Windows 7 or better with RDP?
With RDP you're still left exposing ports – with a negotiated tunneling approach like hamachi or teamviewer (which is essentially hamachi + VNC rolled into one) it's far more secure as no ports have to be left open for it to function.
I've been using Windows Live Mesh for quite some time now, if you have windows 7 professional and above just use this feature, it's encrypted, and easy to setup. No third-party software required.
UltraVNC allows for AES encryption using a DSMPlugin. I use the AESV2 dsm plugin which has a key length of 128 regardless of OS. It does slow down a connection slightly. Easy to install.
I really liked TeamViewer until I came accross LogMeIn. It's really fast, secure, and best of all, free. :)
I'm with Cambo.
Most remote desktops do not have sufficient levels of encryption included to be considered security without a VPN/tunner too and the most popular VPNs have significant weaknesses and should be avoided too – specifically PPTP, but others have issues too.
Real security is usually competing with "convenience". Most security usually means less convenience and vice versa. Each of us need to determine what level of security is really needed for out environments. However, if the wrong choice is made, leaning more towards convenience, all is lost.
* Use an IPSec or OpenVPN-based VPN or
* Use an ssh based tunnel or
* Use any NX-based remote desktop client / server or
* Learn to love the CLI and use ssh between bash and powershell,
controlling a PC is pretty easy provided your programs aren't limited to GUI tools.
Just by running on an alternate port doesn't increase real security at all, though it will reduce the most common cracker attempts, it wouldn't slow down anyone serious.
I need to check out the DSMPlugin. Interesting. OTOH, I don't really use VNC since finding freeNX. NX is amazing, very network efficient and uses ssh tunnels, so if you've already got an ssh port forwarded, you are golden.
TeamViewer Pro for quick client connection. I use Visionapp ASG-Remote Desktop for managing multiple servers, Sans & all related backup & security for them. Been using it quite a long time & this works all very well for me.
I personally use TightVNC (the best of the vnc proggy's imho) to control my htpc/home server while at home. It's snappier as someone else said and you can save the login info by clicking on the screens taskbar after you connect for the first time. Then I can save that shortcut on my rocketdock bar and simply login easily without retyping the login name and pass everytime I want to access my htpc while at home.
Now when I'm trying to access a family members pc to help them I always use Teamviewer as it's so much easier to use with people that have little to no tech knowledge. Plus it has the included security for doing anything over the internet.
BTW SOmeone said about Teamviewer having a portable version. There's also a portable version of TightVNC just server, just viewer, or both.
TightVNC encrypts VNC passwords, but the rest of the traffic is sent unencrypted.
So using it over the net raises many potential risks, too many for me.
i'm use freenx instead
I think TightVNC supports some security plugins. Not 100% sure on that.
Yes. I can connect over 3G/4G just fine.
Running TightVNC on PC.

This stuff is all well and good if you're single and you leave your computer logged in at home. But I'm married and have roommates, so I lock my account when I get up. Win+L as I'm standing. It's habit by now. With Windows locked, or another user logged in, none of this stuff works… AFAIK. If you leave your account logged in, you can use the computer remotely, but nobody else can.
Twice — once with a Nintendo DS and again with a smartphone, I set up something like VNC on my *wife's* account, and hid it well… Took control without her knowing. I didn't really care what she was doing, but I'd throw the cursor every now and then. Many lulz were had when she came crying to me that the computer was broken. It was especially funny with the DS because she had no idea (what amounts to) a Gameboy could do that. (By itself it can't, but mine was modded.) Now it wouldn't be a surprise anymore. Now if I could somehow hijack her smartphone with mine, I could run the gag again. Better if I do it when she lets her sister use her phone for something, get both of them. Bonus points if I can have the front-facing camera streaming their reactions to me.
@ Dark Reality : So what you're saying is that you have no respect for other people's privacy & you get off on causing confusion & stress to others cuz it gives you a cheap.

Stewart + Brown, the label founded by husband and wife team Karen Stewart and Howard Brown, adds organic cotton denim to their brand.
Hot fall trends include leggings, jeggings, leather (get that Alexander Wang Coco Duffel that I posted the other day…a hot hot item ladies!) pants (Helmut Lang rules!), vests, jackets and bags. Great investments that will last season after season.
Read all the WWD articles below.
–Nikki Cho Russo
???We felt like we needed to offer denim to round out the collection and offer more woven bottoms,??? said Stewart, who noted the line??™s assortment has traditionally been focused on cut-and-sew knits and tops.
They also believed there was an opportunity in the market for a higher-end take on denim with a socially conscious message.
???We took styling cues from [traditional] denim, but it has a more refined and sophisticated appearance,??? said Stewart. Details such as heavy contrast stitching, zippers and brass have been lifted from the traditional denim world and incorporated into more refined designs. ???We wanted to take it a little more dressed up rather than the casual perspective on denim,??? she said.
One of the keys to achieving that upscale look has been the choice of a lightweight fabric they are referring to as a ???platinum twill.??? The 7-ounce Japanese fabric is made from 100 percent organic cotton the designers had been working with over the years for other items. The fabric??™s manufacturing process allows the fiber used to pick up all the dye, which results in clean water after the dyeing process.
The line??™s denim offerings will consist of trousers, shorts, skirts, dresses and jackets. Wholesale prices will range from $82 to $138.
Stewart + Brown targets high-end women??™s specialty boutiques, and has felt the pangs of the recession as their customers struggled to survive. Many didn??™t. Stewart said that prior to the global financial crisis, the line shipped to 350 stores in the U.S. as well as to stores in Europe and Asia. Today, the line is down to 200 doors in the U.S. However, an online store launched two years ago is growing and customers did not flee entirely from the premium prices generally associated with green products.

From the East to the West Coast, retailers said contemporary shoppers have been on the prowl for high-quality pieces that also provide great value. While they are pickier than ever about what they choose to spend their money on, they aren??™t exactly price-sensitive: If they have to have it, they will buy it.
At Saks Fifth Avenue, fashion market director Colleen Sherin said overall she is pleased with fall sales so far, with some of the highest-priced items on the floor selling out quickly. Sherin said this season at Saks, buyers were choosier than ever about their buys, which has been good for sales. Sometimes, she said, they only purchased one or two items from a particular brand. It??™s those items she is seeing sell out fast.
???The key categories have really become clear, and it??™s those multiuse items which can be dressed up or down that are really doing well,??? she said. ???Leggings are selling quickly and vests are selling really well, whether they are embellished, are made of fur, leather.??¦They are seen as a layering piece, almost like an accessory.???
Leather items, Sherin said, are performing well across the board, which she said has a lot to do with the value and longevity factor.
???Leather is seen as an investment; it only gets better with age,??? she said. ???And at $295 to $1,900 retail for these items, we haven??™t seen much price resistance.???
Sherin said Saks is also noticing a great deal of cross shopping, with more traditional designer customers heading to the contemporary floor to buy some of the higher-end lines there. She noted brands like Elizabeth and James, Helmut Lang and Rag & Bone are top performers, while casual items from Joie have been selling as well.
???Casual shirts, cargo pants??¦it??™s those effortless, easy pieces which have also been amazing,??? she said.
Sari Sloane, fashion merchandiser and director at Intermix, said shoppers have begun gravitating toward easy-to-layer separates ??" denim, knits and leather in particular.
???The shopper wants value for her dollar, but she also wants to update her wardrobe,??? she said. ???So [we] offer high-low price points so they will spend more for an investment piece that can carry through seasons, as well as with some pieces that are more trend-oriented.???
Like Saks, Sloane said Intermix is doing well with Helmut Lang leggings and Rag & Bone jackets.
???Leggings and leather pants and leather jackets are doing well because they can be dressed up or down and fall into trend categories but are also transitional pieces,??? she said. ???Almost every collection has offered variations on them. Also, we really edit the collections we buy to ensure that we get a very special assortment and create exclusive collaborations with our designers. This way, the consumer can find items with Intermix that are not available anywhere else.???
At Canadian retailer Holt Renfrew, fashion director Barbara Atkin said the store is seeing strong demand in the advanced contemporary area, with customers buying heavily into brands like Elizabeth and James, Helmut Lang, Alexander Wang and Kimberly Ovitz.

Today, Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, Vogue magazine, the Council of Fashion Designers of America and NYC & Co. will unveil the return of the event on Sept. 9 ??" and the plan is to make the second one bigger and better than the first.
???The numbers are in, and it??™s clear that Fashion??™s Night Out was a tremendous success,??? Bloomberg said. ???Thousands of New Yorkers attended the events in all five boroughs, supporting the city??™s retail and fashion industries, and helping a worthwhile cause. It??™s sure to be an even bigger event in 2010.???
The first event, which took place Sept. 10, was widely considered a success. In New York alone, more than 700 retailers remained open until 11 p.m., and designers planned special personal appearances or events, with various spots around the city turning into major block parties.
???We were absolutely bowled over by the response to Fashion??™s Night Out,??? said Vogue editor in chief Anna Wintour. ???It was only 15 minutes after the event began, and we were getting reports about lines around the block at stores throughout the city. It was wonderful to see people embrace this initiative, and we are thrilled that they wish it to return.???
CFDA president Diane von Furstenberg added, ???To have designers in stores to celebrate and start a shopping season is the best idea for everybody. It creates excitement and lots of business.???
According to an independent study by ShopperTrak, foot traffic in stores jumped by 50 percent that night. Meanwhile, NYC & Co., the marketing, tourism and partnerships organization of the city, conducted a survey of 1,300 shoppers and concluded that 75 percent of them bought something that night. The survey also found two-thirds of those consumers visited stores they have never been to before, and 61 percent ventured out of their comfort zones, going to neighborhoods outside of their work and living areas.
???I think that when the partners planned the first one, it was pretty clear that it was going to be successful, but until we hit the streets that night, I don??™t think we knew the extent of the success,??? CFDA executive director Steven Kolb said. ???As it went into the nights and days after, during fashion week, we talked to all the participants, and there wasn??™t one person who didn??™t immediately ask when we were going to do this again.???
In the weeks since Fashion??™s Night Out, top retailers have been meeting with the mayor and city officials, seeking a repeat of the event and trying to devise strategies to spur shopping and tourism in the city year-round. Specifically for Fashion??™s Night Out, some retailers are pressing to make Sept. 9 free of sales tax. There is also a proposal to stage a fashion show for consumers at Lincoln Center, where New York Fashion Week will be held for the spring 2011 designer collections for the first time, instead of at Bryant Park. The show would promote merchandise in the stores, not the next season??™s.

???Asia has been fantastic,??? Suhl said. ???It has offset some of the softer markets.???
Asia was Prada??™s largest business in the first half of 2009, representing 25 percent of global sales, and according to a recent study by Bain, the region is set to grow 10 percent this year.
Prada on Wednesday unveiled a new 13,000-square-foot unit in Singapore??™s Ion Orchard mall, its largest flagship in Asia-Pacific to date. The company plans five more stores in the region before the end of the year for a total of 17 new units in 2009.
Suhl explained Prada has seen very strong comps across the region, with men??™s wear, which accounts for 30 percent of global Prada sales and more than 30 percent in Asia, leading the way.
???We have been seeing some very positive trends in men??™s wear, and overall much more positive trends than women??™s globally,??? Suhl said.
China has been ???remarkable,??? while South Korea, which is Prada??™s fastest-growing market in Asia year-to-date, has done ???extremely well??? for men and women, he added.
Prada is also looking at new territories such as Mongolia, although ???it??™s still very nascent,??? Suhl said, adding that second-tier cities in China like Xi??™An would remain the focus for the time being. ???Xi??™An is a city of eight million people, but by Chinese standards, it??™s almost like a village. The sales we are generating there in a relatively small store are comparable to key European cities,??? he said.
Even markets like Australia are starting to show big numbers, according to Suhl.
To further penetrate the market, Prada, which also operates the Miu Miu, Car Shoe and Church??™s brands, plans to open its first Car Shoe retail footwear store next year in Hong Kong??™s Elements Mall and in Singapore??™s Ion Orchard. Meanwhile, Church??™s, which already counts three stores in Hong Kong, will also open a store in Ion Orchard.

Valentino may have retired two years ago, but one wouldn??™t know it from the press whirlwind he??™s been on the last few months. Case in point: the VBH boutique on Tuesday night, where the designer joined Giancarlo Giammetti and Gwyneth Paltrow for a DVD signing of ???Valentino: The Last Emperor,??? Matt Tyrnauer??™s hit documentary about Valentino??™s last year in the fashion business. Alek Wek, Harley Viera-Newton, Gigi Mortimer and Molly Sims were on hand for the fete, from which proceeds benefitted The Robin Hood Foundation.
Paltrow didn??™t seem ready to brave the cameras for a full-blown feature on her life. ???I don??™t think I would be an interesting enough subject,??? said the actress. ???There would be a lot of school runs, a lot of cooking, a lot of talking on the phone, a lot of e-mailing. Not six dogs and ski chalets, sadly,??? she said, referencing some of the aspects of Valentino??™s life showcased in the film.

CHARLES??™ CHECK: Burberry??™s newly minted global headquarters in London will get the royal seal of approval this week. Today, Prince Charles is set to make a visit to Horseferry House, the company??™s 160,000-square-foot base near London??™s River Thames, to officially open the sleek building. Angela Ahrendts, Burberry??™s chief executive officer, and Christopher Bailey, the label??™s creative director, will greet the prince, who will then view Burberry??™s archives and meet members of the company??™s 850 staff ??" who have been based at the building since January ??" during a tour of Burberry??™s design studio and offices. And since Burberry has held one of the Prince of Wales??™ royal warrants since 1990, it??™s likely Charles will be well enough acquainted with the 153-year-old label to happily talk trench coats with Ahrendts and Bailey.
BAUBLES AND BUBBLY: Fine jewelry design was feted all over Manhattan on Tuesday night. Uptown, Annie Churchill, Kara Ross and Gilles Mendel came to congratulate Ward andNico Landrigan, the father-son owners of Verdura, on the firm??™s 70th anniversary. Meanwhile, it was a family affair for Marchesa designer Georgina Chapman at the Garrard salon in SoHo. Chapman??™s mother, Caroline Wonfor, brother Edward (who is president of Marchesa), mother-in-law Miriam Weinstein and husband Harvey Weinstein were in attendance to celebrate her collaboration with Garrard creative director Stephen Webster on a capsule collection for the English jewelry firm. ???They better be here if they want to stay family,??? said Chapman, outfitted in a royal blue number from her collection, as well as her first fine jewelry designs. Nonrelatives of Chapman??™s included Helena Christensen, Becki Newton, Mischa Barton and Tinsley Mortimer, who had a camera crew in tow filming her new reality show.
OPENING PAIR: The collaborations at Opening Ceremony continue apace: the latest is with shoe designer Robert Clergerie, who has taken his classic espadrille style (which he introduced in 1990) and created four exclusive designs for the retailer to debut in late February. The designs, featuring fabrics including indigo-dyed linen, classic polkadots on linen, and a special hand-painted floral print, will retail for $460 at the store.
MUMMY DEAREST: Tamara Mellon will take the stand in a Channel Islands courtroom next month as part of a 6 million pound, or $9.5 million, lawsuit against her mother, Ann Yeardye. Mellon is suing her mother for breach of contract in the sale of Jimmy Choo to Lion Capital in 2004. A source close to Mellon said Yeardye also planned to give evidence at the civil hearing, which is scheduled for mid-November at the Royal Court of Jersey, Channel Islands. Meanwhile, a similar lawsuit in Los Angeles that Mellon filed in January 2008 has been dropped due to jurisdiction issues. Mellon and Yeardye held stakes in Jimmy Choo through family trusts and, at the time of the sale to Lion Capital, money was paid to the family in cash and stock of the new owner. Mother and daughter reached an agreement partly verbally and partly in writing that Yeardye would receive her share in cash only, and Mellon would take her share solely in stock.
The lawsuit alleges Yeardye mistakenly received some of the stock that was supposed to go to Mellon, and refused to return it when the error was discovered. The 4 million pounds, or $6.3 million, in disputed stock was later liquidated after Jimmy Choo was sold once again in 2007, and is sitting in a frozen bank account. In 2004, Lion Capital acquired a majority stake in Jimmy Choo in a deal that valued the company at 101 million pounds, or $187 million, at the time of sale. In 2007, Lion Capital sold Jimmy Choo to TowerBrook Capital Partners LP in a deal valuing the London-based accessories company at 185 million pounds, or $364.5 million, at the time of sale.

Rangers Drop 5-2 Decision To Jets At The Garden
Jim Cerny
Just last Friday Rangers head coach Alain Vigneault bemoaned his team's lack of consistent play so far this season. On Monday night the Rangers up and down play continued when they followed up Saturday's uplifting 5-2 win over the Vancouver Canucks with a frustrating 5-2 loss to the Winnipeg Jets at Madison Square Garden.
Cam Talbot made his second consecutive start in goal, and surrendered more than two goals for the first time in eight starts this season. He finished with 25 saves as his personal six-game winning streak was snapped. The loss dropped the Rangers back to .500 overall (14-14-0) and one game under on home ice (5-6-0) this season.
Former Ranger Olli Jokinen scored with 7:18 to play in the third period to snap a 2-2 tie and send the Blueshirts to defeat, while lifting Winnipeg to its third win over the first four games of their current six-game road trip. Jokinen ripped his fifth goal from the right circle past Talbot for what turned out to be the game-winner. Then with 1:54 left to play Jokinen beat Talbot again with a snap shot to make it 4-2.
Blake Wheeler scored into the empty-net with 51 seconds to play to seal the Rangers fate.
With the game deadlocked at two apiece the Rangers were awarded a power play at 7:11 of the third period, but could not break though against Winnipeg goalie Ondrej Pavelec, managing two shots including a good opportunity for Rick Nash from the slot. Moments later while skating 5-on-5 Chris Kreider sent Derek Stepan in behind the defense and as Stepan wristed a shot from between the circles he was tripped down by the Jets defense. No penalty was called, Pavelec made a strong right-pad save, and the game remained tied.
Talbot then did his part at the other end of the ice with a pair of clutch saves, including a neat pad stop on Wheeler's deflection at the 11-minute mark. However Jokinen scored the go-ahead goal less than two minutes later leaving the Rangers little time to mount a comeback.
The Rangers and Jets arrived at the second intermission tied 2-2 in a game full of momentum swings. The Rangers grabbed an early lead on Mats Zuccarello's goal just 2:49 into the opening period and held an 11-6 shots advantage after one period of play, but the Jets dominated the first half of the second period, scoring twice and forcing the Rangers into a series of mistakes until the Blueshirts regrouped later in the period and pulled even on Ryan Callahan's seventh goal of the season at 15:50.
In the midst of all of this Talbot played well, and also had a bit of luck on his side. The Jets twice rang shots off iron in the second period---once on a Dustin Byfuglien left wing shot early in the period, and the other on a Jacob Trouba shot from right wing later on.
Zuccarello gave the Rangers a 1-0 lead by tipping Ryan McDonagh's left wing slap shot past Pavelec for his fourth goal of the season. The popular Norwegian forward now has recorded points in seven of 11 home games this season, while McDonagh notched his 16th point of the season moving him into a tie for 12th place among all NHL defensemen in points.
After a very strong start to the second period the Jets finally solved Talbot at 8:16 when Devin Setoguchi whipped his seventh goal into the cage from the right circle after a feed from Jokinen. Less than two minutes later the Jets capitalized on Derick Brassard's turnover at the blueline with rookie John Albert scoring off the rush up left wing for his first NHL goal in his NHL debut. The 24 year old was recalled from the minors to take the place of the injured Evander Kane and was skating on Winnipeg's fourth line when he scored the go-ahead goal.
Brassard was immediately lifted off of the second line and dropped to the fourth line by Rangers head coach Alain Vigneault, with Benoit Pouliot moving up to play alongside Callahan and Brad Richards. The move paid off several minutes later as that threesome accounted for the tying goal after a hard-working shoft in the offensive zone.
Pouliot ultimately started the scoring play by wristing a long shot on net while covering for McDonagh at the left point. Pavelec made the save, but could not control the rebound which Callahan chipped to Richards at the side of the net. Richards' bad-angle shot hit off Pavelec and trickled towards the goal line, and Callahan dove to the ice in order to poke the puck into the back of the net with 4:10 remaining in the second period, tying the score 2-2.
The goal was Callahan's first in nine games as he pulled even with Richards for the team lead with seven on the season. The primary assist was Richards' team-high 20th point of the season; and Pouliot's secondary assist was his first point in 15 games.
The Rangers will try and get back on track Thursday night when they face the Sabres up in Buffalo--their only road contest coming up in the next three weeks.

Kreider's First Hat Trick Paces Rangers Past Canucks 5-2
Jim Cerny
All of the pre-game talk Saturday centered around Alain Vigneault's first game against the team he coached the previous seven years and John Tortorella's return to Madison Square Garden. Once the game started, though, the focus was squarely on hockey where the Rangers new-look first line and Cam Talbot's strong Garden debut in goal stole the headlines in the Rangers 5-2 victory over the Vancouver Canucks.
Vigneault changed personnel on all four of his forward lines, and made three adjustments to his lineup Saturday following Friday's disappointing 3-2 loss in Boston. The Rangers bench boss lined up Chris Kreider, Derek Stepan, and Rick Nash on the team's top line Saturday and that three some responded by scoring four goals while totaling eight points. Kreider led the way with three goals---the first Hat Trick of his NHL career; Nash recorded a goal and two assists; and Stepan notched a pair of helpers.
Michael Del Zotto, who returned to the lineup after being a healthy scratch the previous two games---and in five of the last eight---scored a power play goal, making Vigneault's decision to scratch John Moore in favor of Del Zotto look to be a wise one. Derek Dorsett was also back in the lineup after missing two games with a sore wrist, taking the spot of veteran Taylor Pyatt.
Perhaps Vigneault's wisest decision was to give Talbot the first Madison Square Garden start of his young career. Talbot, who has now won six straight starts overall and is 6-1-0 on the season as Henrik Lundqvist's backup, made a career-high 35 saves, while displaying his trademark calm and cool demeanor throughout. The 26 year-old Talbot has yet to allow more than two goals in any of his seven starts this season.
Kreider, who struggled under Tortorella last year, showed his former coach a thing or two by scoring twice in the first period to give the Rangers a 2-0 lead. He opened the scoring at 12:37, beating Canucks goalie Roberto Luongo with a hard wrist shot from between the circles after Nash had feathered a soft pass on his stick while absorbing a hard hit on right wing. Kreider then doubled the Rangers advantage by scoring a power play goal at 16:54--deflecting Ryan McDonagh's right wing pass up and over Luongo.
Nash made it 3-0 Rangers just 17 seconds into the second period, knocking Luongo out of the game in the process. Luongo surrendered three goals on ten shots after Nash tipped Stepan's shot from the slot into the cage for his fourth goal of the season, and third in the last three games.
Del Zotto earned a measure of redemption at 11:04 when he blasted a slap shot through a Ryan Callahan screen for the Rangers second power play goal of the afternoon to make it 4-0. Mats Zuccarello and Derick Brassard earned the assists after a pretty back and forth passing sequence which concluded with Zuccarello's right wing to left pass to an open Del Zotto, who recorded his second goal of the season.
Meanwhile at the other end of the ice Talbot was quietly and effectively stopping everything shot his way by the Canucks, who fired 14 shots on goal in the opening period and another 11 in the second stanza. He lost his bid for a third consecutive shutout when David Booth got in behind the Rangers defense and slipped a shot between Talbot's pads with 4:10 to play in the middle period.
That goal by Booth also snapped the Rangers team shutout mark of 157 minutes 14 seconds against Vancouver dating to November 3, 2009. In their previous two contests against the Canucks, the Blueshirts had shut out Vancouver 4-0 and 1-0, with Lundqvist backstopping both victories.
Kreider scored his third goal of the game, and sixth of the season, 9:38 into the third period when he stood in front of Canucks back up goalie Eddie Lack and deflected Anton Stralman's shot past him, with the hats soon after raining down on the ice and Tortorella---hands in pockets---grimacing behind the Canucks bench.
With 16 points (6-10-16) in 20 games to date Kreider is now the second leading point producer among all rookies in the NHL, trailing only San Jose's Tomas Hertl who has 21 points in 25 games.
Daniel Sedin potted a power play goal on a rebound in front with Kreider in the penalty box and 2:35 to play to close out the scoring.
Saturday's game marked the beginning of a stretch in which the Rangers will play 11 of 12 games on home ice. They will next face the Winnipeg Jets Monday night at The Garden.

Before and After: Birthday Party Etiquette
It seems like in today's digital age it's easy to get lost in the never-ending ability to just send an email as an invitation to an event, or write on someone's facebook wall to thank them for something sweet they've done. But when it comes to planning a birthday party, there's something sincere and truly touching when an actual invitation or thank you card is sent and received. If you're planning a birthday party anytime soon, Cardstore has some tips for you to help make the invitation before the event feel special, and to make your thank you note for after the event the perfect reminder of why you're so appreciative of what they've done.
Featured Cards: Purple Bunting Flag Birthday, Big Five O, Birthday Daily Journal Invite
When inviting family and friends to a birthday celebration, whether it's for you, on behalf of a significant other, or for a little one, it's best to send your invitation out a month in advance for a more formal party, and 2 to 3 weeks in advance if it's an informal gathering. Include where and when the party is with clear details about the venue, whether an RSVP is needed, and information about whether dinner, drinks, snacks, etc. will be served so they can plan accordingly. Browsing Cardstore's many birthday party invitations can help you pick a theme that you can easily decorate around as well.
Featured Cards: Confetti Thanks, Ballerina Thanks, Polka Dot Balloon Thanks
After the party, birthday thank you cards provide the perfect chance to follow up on what a great time you had celebrating with your guests. Ideally, you or the little birthday boy or girl will write the thank you card within 2 to 3 days of the party so that excitement over the gift is still at its peak. You can even pick a thank you card with room for a photo so that a photo of you enjoying their gift can be added for a personalized touch. Be sure to mention how much you appreciate that they were able to celebrate your day with you, and that you're looking forward to using their gift throughout the year. Sent 2 to 3 days after a party, birthday thank you cards are the final step needed in making sure all rules for birthday party etiquette are perfectly followed.

comfortable but looks very wide
"This pair of shoes are very light and comfortable. I ordered the XW (or 4E) for my son. They looked very WIDE. He usually wears the extra wide shoes, so I am not comparing these with other normal widths shoes. I am comparing these shoes with other extra wide shoes. They look very wide, but did not necessary provide more room. We are returning these."

Bywater's signature Mirliton Festival began in 1989 as a small neighborhood party: Residents celebrated the completion of the annual Bywater Home Tour with a potluck dinner. Friends and neighbors converged on Bud Rip's bar at Piety & Burgundy streets with casserole dishes full of homemade delights. Several of the entrees were made from mirlitons, the local vegetable that is as unusual and beloved as Bywater. Someone (his or her name now lost in the haze of time) joked about the abundance of mirliton dishes. "Hey," said the unwitting prophet, "We should host a festival! Louisiana has festivals for everything, so why not mirlitons?" Thus, the Bywater Mirliton Festival was born.
The following year, 1990, then-Bywater Neighborhood Association president Dixy Robillard took the lead in organizing the New Orleans festival in Mickey Markey Park. Jackie Clarkson, serving her first City Council term, was a prominent visitor. Councilwoman Clarkson was instrumental in getting funding for the park's playground equipment. New Orleans music was supplied by the Francis T. Nicholls (now Frederick Douglass) marching band.
The Bywater Mirliton Festival soon grew in size and scope, thanks to the event planning expertise of Bywater residents Sally and Philip Cobb. After an unfortunate cancellation due to Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the New Orleans festival resumed its happy history in 2006 under the guidance of organizers Miwako Hattori and Stephanie Easley. This year's Bywater Mirliton Festival was chaired by Chris Lorenzen, with help from a committee of dedicated volunteers.
Over the festival's 22-year history, one thing has remained the same: the Bywater Mirliton Festival continues to showcase great music, food, and local art.

Good morning, beloved,
1 I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2 My life makes its boast in the Lord; let the humble andafflicted hear and be glad.
3 O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together.
Psam 34:
4 I sought (inquired of) the Lord and required Him [of necessity and on the authority of His Word], and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
5 They looked to Him and were radiant; their faces shall never blush for shame or be confused.
6 This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles
Psalm 34:
7 [a]The Angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him [who revere and worship Him with awe] and each of them He delivers.
8 O taste and see that the Lord [our God] is good! Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is the man who trusts and takes refuge in Him.
9 O fear the Lord, you His saints [revere and worship Him]! For there is no want to those who truly revere and worship Him with godly fear.
Psalm 34:
15 The eyes of the Lord are toward the [uncompromisingly] righteous and His ears are open to their cry.
16 The face of the Lord is against those who do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
17 When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears, and delivers them out of all their distress and troubles.
18 The Lord is close to those who are of a broken heart and saves such as are crushed with sorrow for sin and are humblyand thoroughly penitent.
Psalm 34: 22 The Lord redeems the lives of His servants, and none of those who take refuge and trust in Him shall be condemned or held guilty.
Worship Him today. Or to steal my Pastor's status:
The devil will say you're too tired. He'll say the music is loud and the donuts are stale. Kick him in the pants and go to church anyway. Dan Darling
Pray on. Pray on.

Simple point and click, similar to The Sagittarian.
This was a bit of an experiment, and I realize it might be a tiny bit more text heavy than some players might like. That's okay though, I had a good time making it, and it was a fun experience.
I was trying to think of a way to combine rpg dungeon crawl elements with fantasy book bodies of text. Originally it was going to track stats and all kinds of goodies, but it was conflicting with the story-telling elements of the text pretty heavily.
It's something I'd like to revisit in the future though, and maybe refine. I think a bit more art, and a bit less text would be good, but no so much as to destroy the idea.
Anyway, hope you guys like it, thanks for playing!

"Oh my God, she is sooo old. Who invited her to the party?" Miley Cyrus talking about this still very much A list foreign born super model.

Miley is 20 something, right? Everyone over 30 is soooo old when you're 20.

So mileya a little " mean girl" . No surprise. Jealousy ain't pretty.ReplyCancel
Lol @violet the DM is horrified at everything!ReplyCancel
Hmmm… Better speed things up… Drinks later, TTM?ReplyCancel
It's funny how usually ppl are all hating on Kate for being a washed up druggie model but when it comes to Miley vs Kate everyone is team Kate lol. I love them both so whatever but Miley does need to chill on the ageismReplyCancel
I had this happen at my Halloween party last year. It wasn't Miley and Kate moss though. But my nail girl got a little crazy during a game of beer pong. She asked who invited the old lady anyways, who happens to be one of my besties. Who also happens to be cray, she about killed her. So I imagine the same thing happened to Miley, those skinny bitches are feisty.ReplyCancel
Yanno, I've seen people claim that MC is a genius at the publicity machine, but she must be an idiot at everything else. The fact that Kate Moss has had much longevity in her career means that anyone would be an idiot to not want to talk her up a bit about her life. That, and her comments make me feel old.
Just my opinion.
IJU said it better in the original, though.ReplyCancel
Only if I can see your etchings later, TNC, times-a-wasting!ReplyCancel
Miley is an idiot but this is normal. 5-year-olds think 10-year-olds are sooo old. 13-year-olds think 19-year-olds are sooo old. When you're 22, 30 is old. When you're 30, 45 is old. Etc. It's pointless to get upset about what younger people think of your age.
Miley was wrong to say this out loud, though. Should have just thought it to herself.ReplyCancel
In 18 yrs they will be saying the same thing about you ho. (Fuck the Internet and its connection problems anyway offline for 90 minutes just now for the third time this week 🙁 not to mention a cancelled e-mail account and 2 days of missed e-mails:( )ReplyCancel
Awesome! I was gonna recommend we see a Van Damme movie, but no titles are leaping to mind….ReplyCancel
Kick boxer is probably his best movie TNCReplyCancel
Kelly Clarkson had a girl today. River Rose.
I am no fan of Kate Moss either. I am sure she can look rather old and like 10 miles of bad road when she isn't backlit and airbrushed to perfection. She has spent her life drinking, drugging and smoking…that all takes a toll eventually. And yep when you are young anyone more than a decade older than you is ancient.ReplyCancel
Congrats Kelly!ReplyCancel
OT from a first time posting long lurker: Good Lord, those reader pics = bodice-ripper material!
You are beautiful, people!
Each and every one of you!
Thanks for sharing, and warmest regards from an enthusiastic round-heels,
Miss P.F.ReplyCancel
Sorry Violet! Dirty martinis for all? Let's bring NJFF too! Who's in??ReplyCancel
Yay PF! I adore round heels, both as a term and as a lifestyle. Goononya for your first post from lurking! Woot!ReplyCancel
I'd much rather have Kate Moss at a party than Miley.ReplyCancel
I don't think it's that weird, lots of people marry older/younger. I'm in my late twenties, my hubs is in his mid, and he works with people
of all ages, who in turn marry
people of all ages. I met my friend from work, and she is super rad, and also a coug married to someone in his mid twenties. I don't think she should have to sit at home and work on her needle point.
Agreed. Which isn't saying much considering it's JCVD, but still….ReplyCancel
Its probably a great movie to watch when youre wasted TNC. Otherwise 1/2 star :)).
As for you younguns who dont think older ppl should be partying with y'all: ive yet to find someone much younger than me who can put me under a table–at best they hang and we die together but nobody can outlast me. And we have fun….and that's really all that matters.ReplyCancel
Werd: age ain't nuthin but a number.ReplyCancel
Here here Sandy. My neighbor is mid 50's and we are forever hanging out with him. He has kids my age, doesn't affect what a bad ass he is.ReplyCancel
It was gatsby like the beautiful and the damned. 1 giant orgy that went all night longReplyCancel
Let the river run. Carly just popped in my head when I read her baby nameReplyCancel
Yay! See most people my age cant or dont wanna do it so that leaves the young'uns. Perfect case or an example–Demi Moore she luvs having fun. And I have a friend farther south from me who always parties with her daughter and her friends and they absolutely adore her (but not so sure about how the other parents feel about her.)ReplyCancel
I don't think she should have too either, I have friends who are in their 30s, 40s, and 50s that I go out with all the time but I still think it would be a bit odd for someone who is not a good friend to show up at a party full of younger adults. Idk maybe she is friends with someone there, maybe Miley was one of the youngest ones there. I'm not doubting an aging persons ability or right to have fun or saying once you hit 40 it's a 9 pm bedtime and no fun, I just find it a bit odd if someone isn't friends with the younger people but seeks out young crowds to party with. I've been to parties where an older man is just hanging out, gething drunk by himself, not a parent or friend of anyone's and it's weird. That's just my opinion.ReplyCancel
I tell the youngsters that try to keep up with me "Bow down when Hammer is out on the town"ReplyCancel
There might be a couple of other ones mentioned on another thread, sandy!ReplyCancel
JSierra, was it one of those he keeps getting older but the girls stay the same age kinda thing?ReplyCancel
Right on! I'll pour….ReplyCancel
There was a guy that used to hang out at one of the bars I frequented who was well into his 80's and the average age was mid 20's-30. We called him Thumper due to his fondness of hopping up on a girls ass on the dance floor.ReplyCancel
Oh TTM I was so sorry to hear you have 6 months to a year or so left:))ReplyCancel
And Hammer Girl there was this man who was named Bob Barker ( no joke his real name) who used to live here and drink in the pub I do and he was 90 (and very vibrant). He used to hit on all the young girls and they loved it…so I made friends with him but they wouldn't go near me–becuz I wasn't "safe". Every man in that place was jealous of him.ReplyCancel
Thank you sandy, I was pretty sad to find that out myself.ReplyCancel
That ain't right, HammerReplyCancel
ttm. we should start partying now to celebrate your death..passing..ReplyCancel
That's a great idea, sugarbread! We should make sure a bunch of 20 year old are there in following with the blindReplyCancel
Ahhhh, JSierra, it'll hit them eventually. Once their booze and drugs stops buying them company. There was always a ring of dudes like that around the dance floor, and like your guy, Hammer, just waiting to see what girl got drunk enough to be able to count properly. I don't care about age, but the predatory waiting was creeeepyReplyCancel
Lol @ Sandy- we had a guy in our group that did everything with us. He worked with one of my friends and told us he was gay, so he was inner circle. And by inner circle I mean he did everything with us, like sat in the room while we changed and gave his opinion on what we were gonna wear out. Imagine our surprise when his girlfriend from out of town showed up.ReplyCancel
Me too!! Now Remember the Titans is on.ReplyCancel
Lololololol@Hammer Girl.ReplyCancel
Ahh Belmar and Point Pleasant Beach! Are Bar A and Martells still around?ReplyCancel
well, when i was early twenties i would have thought the same.
kate can party them under the table though. they should watch and learn. or maybe NOT learn.ReplyCancel

The only thing I didn't like about the Jersey beaches was I had to pay to go onto them :(. Only beaches Ive ever been on like that.ReplyCancel
@7- I'm holding out hope Wenham will be cast on GoT, preferably someone who can live longer than 1-2 seasons.ReplyCancel
@Sandy-we have a beach here you have to pay to enter. Actually it's a state park, so you can camp but everyone goes for the beach. I'm terrified of it though, you have to drive in the beach and usually the sand is too thick so people get stuck. Matter if fact just a couple weeks ago it was so packed out that when the tide came in people couldn't get out or move their cars in time and lots of them got flooded. They had to close the beach down.ReplyCancel
Yeah state parks you pay to go into also. You aren't talking about Playalinda Beach are you Hammer? I think that's a state park beach anyway and a nude beach too.ReplyCancel
@Hammer, my geek heart skipped a beat at the idea of David Wenham on GoT! He would have made a fantastic Jaime (but I <3 Nicolai C-W, so I'm not complaining) – there's an upcoming arc that he might fit perfectly.ReplyCancel
I had no idea there was such a time crunch, no more sex after 42, and sobriety by 40. I better step up my game! That's what I get for waiting to drink until I was 21 🙁ReplyCancel
I bet we have the same one in mind. I'm so stoked for tomorrow night, I'm hoping for a stone cold hearted finale!ReplyCancel
Dang. Paying to go to the beach? I love NC. Free even at state park Fort Macon.ReplyCancel
We may need to outsource, AlitaReplyCancel
Another GoT fan here. I want to be shocked, and titillated and on the edge of my seat.ReplyCancel
I'm all for orgasmsReplyCancel
+1 for multipleReplyCancel
Not overly picky at this point, Stuffy, but I hear you guys
Is that you in your avi,Stuffy? ?ReplyCancel
I've never heard of Playalinda, but I'm gonna have to google it. Huguenot Park is the beach I was talking about above.
I have been to a nudist colony once before, quite some years ago. It was more of a compound in actuality. Very…….1960's? It's hard to explain, I believe my mind went into overload and blocked some things out. I was there in a professional capacity to assist, and WHAM! Tits, ass, cock, and balls.
I put up a post for voting on the June 29 book / movie suggestions:

MREEP MREEP OT OVER!ReplyCancel
Welcome @Jade did!ReplyCancel
Miley showing her true self – hates little kids, now anyone over 25. We all already know she's a redneck racist. And she's shown the world her whore values. Not much left to shock and awe with Misfit-Miley. You're a has been with tweens and of no interest to the money paying public. Maybe she should go into porn too. Read they're recruiting.ReplyCancel
Miley's a rampaging attention whore. Kate wins on fame, coolness and beauty without having to try. It must have driven Miley insane to be so completely eclipsed.ReplyCancel
Miley need to realize she's not that attractive? She has horse mouth.
Kate Moss was a super model and stunning. Even after all her drug issues…she still looks amazing and young for her age.
Miley also does know she'll be 40 one day…right? It happens to everyone, should she be so lucky to make it to that age. Even if she does, she'll never look as stunning as Kate.
Miley…you're an absolute ignorant moron.ReplyCancel

Skip to comments.Federal prosecutors subpoena New Jersey Gov. Christie's campaign, GOP
Posted on 01/23/2014 12:07:41 PM PST by massmike
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's re-election campaign and the state's Republican Party committee have received subpoenas from federal prosecutors investigating allegations that his aides created traffic jams as political payback.
Mark Sheridan, a lawyer representing Christie for Governor and the Republican State Committee, tells The Associated Press the subpoenas are for documents related to the closure of traffic lanes near the George Washington Bridge.
A state legislative committee investigating the traffic jams has also issued subpoenas to the two organizations.
Sheridan says the Republican governor's campaign and the party will cooperate with investigators.
The traffic lane closures created gridlock in the town of Fort Lee in September. Documents gathered by legislators suggest the lanes were closed as political payback, possibly because Fort Lee's mayor declined to endorse Christie.
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
Oh Goodie. Holder and Soetoro want to take this to a new level - put the Republican Presidential candidate in jail.
How Soviet of them.
Good Job Darrell Issa! You left Holder on his throne at the JustUs department (er, crib).
He doesn't like you for that. Just thinks you're weak. Now he's attacking.
One of these days, our side (but not in my lifetime) will learn how to play hardball politics like this...
Yet nothing on Benghazi or IRS Gate. Ain't that special?
Comply only after the IRS is fairly investigated.
(Not intended to imply that I'm defending Christie; rather, it's a bash against the feds for cherry-picking which cases to pursue.)
Christie is the NYC foil to Cuomo and De Blasio. He must be punished so these other 2 can accomplish their commie agenda.
Oh, how he must long for the good old Sandy photo op days, when both parties couldn't schlobber themselves enough over one another. Oh, well, love fades.
If I were the Dems I would lay off Christie, he's a greater ally to them as the "GOP Presidential Nomination" than he is a damaged GOP candidate.
Call Christie soup stock, because he is boned.
Democrats view politics as bloodsport. They destroy and eviscerate their opponents. They play to win at all costs.
Until Republicans do they same thing back to the Dems, they can expect more of the same. Dems have absolutely no respect for the hapless and naive Pubbies.
On the other hand, Dems fear the Tea Party. We have principles, we mobilize, we support, and we vote. We fight back.
Agree. He's manageable. He's an easy mark.
The love really has faded. This is serious, got to clear the decks for the launch of Herself, Madame Benghazi, the Cold & Joyless. For this, Governor Christie has to be pictured as MORE autocratic and tyrannical than even Herself.
After all, what Herself did was halfway around the world, while this traffic snafu happened RIGHT HERE in the territory once known as "the United States of America".
And you just cannot ignore that.
Prove what you say...I don't see anybody cowering in fright from the Tea Party. Too damn bad, but at least where I sit it ain't so.
Where are all the GOP governors to defend Christie? Where are all the GOP Rino's to defend Christie? Where are all those democrats Christie
has worked with? Why haven't they come to his defense?
Good riddance to fat Christie.
Of course it's bloodsport. It is for all the marbles. If we lose our Republic, there is no tomorrow for the Rule of Law, or Freedom.
We all like to think of our Founding Fathers as honorable men.
They were.
But they knew the stakes, too. On 4/19/1775, we stood up at Concord Bridge, fought by the rules as the British dictated them, and got shot to pieces.
It was only after the British began their march back to Boston, and the Minutemen sniped at them, guerrill-style, that our side inflicted significant damage. The British were highly insulted that we didn't fight "fair."
When the gunfire starts, there is only one rule: He who wins, lives.
Our politics should be conducted the same way.
Excellent post.
I grudgingly admire the Dems for playing to win. Pubbies on the other hand are just happy to be spectators in the stands with a seat close enough to watch the game.
Ignore over a hundred years of bankruptcy and other Federal law to shaft the owners of GM so the company can be handed over to the UAW as a payoff, no problem.
A Republican may have used off the shelf democrat tactics, it's Watergate again!!
They know he's going down, and they don't want to be swept up in the formidable wake....
If you listen to the liberal politicans and pundits, they attack the Tea Party every chance they get. Unlike the hapless Pubbies, they know the Tea Party has core beliefs and conviction. They fear people like that.
The Dems rolled out their "Astro turf" campaign to blunt the effectiveness of the Tea Party and used the IRS to intimidate Tea Party groups. Why would they go to such great lengths like this if they didn't fear the influence of the Tea Party?
FOX is dusting off Romney again and polishing up Jeb, son of Bush I
The media will 'blackout' him just like they did Palin, West, etc, but Ted Cruz needs to step up.. Call the evil rats out on this political hit while Benghazi, IRS, NSA, F&F, Solyndra, and the multitude of other scandals get whitewashed.
No way Christie goes to jail, they could not fit him through the door to a cell.
Theyre four moves ahead of the GOPe. They were already on this by the time Christie was all giddy to appear on SNL.
Agreed, but thanks to the press he is damaged goods for the GOP primary and if there is a strong conservative candidate they will use this scandal against him.
Not necessarily. According to Alinsky's Rule for Radicals, rather than fear as their motivator, it is sheer bully tactics trying to shut people down so they don't have to explain their actions.
I believe it is more of a technique than a fear reflex. The Tea Party folks need to stand strong that's for certain and fight back with as devastating tactics as the left.
Tea Party. McDonnell. Christie.
Is it a purge?
"Have you now, or have you ever been, a member of the Republican party?"
The other day Law & Order went after Christie...
The Republicans would not have a majority in congress without the efforts of the Tea Party in 2010. That fact is not lost on Democrats.
I've worked around tons of liberals for years and I can assure you that they are afraid of a repeat of what the Tea Party accomplished in 2010. And they haven't forgotten the huge 912 rally in DC sent shockwaves through them. This was one of the biggest events ever in DC and another one may be coming this spring.
In most states, "mob rule" is just an expression.
Thanks massmike.
So that's what this is REALLY about? Going after the GOP and its donors? Where is the justice any more?
Christie Fails the 2nd Amendment Litmus test for me.
Here's the weird part - one small part of me says "Hey! They're ripping OUR guy to shreds!"
The other larger part says "He's a RINO who likes to play ball with Dems, and would be just as bad or worse."
So at this point... I don't care what they do to him.
No daylight between us on Christie, Publius. I hear you loud and clear.
Like I said - he fails THE litmus test.
If a pol doesn't respect MY right to defend my life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness by the most expedient means (firearms), then he/she isn't worth a bucket of mule piss to me.
