Why Coach Shares are More Attractive than Its Bags
By Adrian Campos - August 17, 2013 | Tickers: COH, GES, TIF
Undervalued top-quality brands with high potential for international expansion are hard to find nowadays. Coach (NYSE: COH) may be one rare example.The stock had a though year, producing an overall negative return (-3.38%) so far. However, a deep look at the company's financial metrics and business strenghts suggests the current negative momentum might actually be a great entry point for investors looking for exposure to the fashion more »
Profiting From The Growing Consumer Disposable Income
By Piyush Arora - August 13, 2013 | Tickers: MA, KORS, TIF
Thanks to the Fed's $85 billion worth of monthly liquidity injections, the unemployment rate in the U.S has slid to 7.6%. And with the improving job scenario, the U.S per capita disposable income has grown by nearly $1 trillion over the last year. Since the Fed doesn't have any plans to unwind its quantitative easing anytime soon, the economic recovery will most likely continue. This more »
An Uncommonly Undervalued Large Cap
By Marshall Hargrave - August 7, 2013 | Tickers: COH, FOSL, TIF
It can be tough to find a truly undervalued stock in the large-cap space. With tons of analyst coverage and daily news updates, the market tends to get the pricing for these stocks right. But it's really exciting when the market gets it wrong, such as the case with Coach (NYSE: COH).
Coach tumbled nealry 10% last week as the fear that competitors in the North American market are more »
Should You Invest in Luxury?
By Dan Moskowitz - August 2, 2013 | Tickers: NILE, COH, TIF
With the stock and real estate markets going up, many people feel richer. In some cases, they feel more rich than they actually are, because they anticipate these meteoric runs to continue forever. But nothing lasts forever.
Regardless, this economic environment has led to top-line growth for Tiffany (NYSE: TIF), Coach (NYSE: COH), and Blue Nile (NASDAQ: NILE). Two of these companies might present quality opportunities and one might not more »
Why High End Stocks Will Always Be in Style
By AnnaLisa Kraft - July 30, 2013 | Tickers: COH, KORS, TIF
A University of Minnesota marketing study has concluded that women buy high end accessories not so much to signify economic status, but as a signal to potential rivals. That Coach (NYSE: COH) purse or Tiffany(NYSE: TIF(NYSE: TIF) )bling supposedly says," I've got a rich man who won't look at you. See this purse (shoes, watch, necklace)..It's one among many he lavishes on me!"

Retail Industry is in For a Run
By Phillip Woolgar - July 27, 2013 | Tickers: BBBY, COST, TIF
The retail industry has advanced by about 29% this year, but I see more gains ahead. The economic recovery may be progressing relatively slow, but I see that steady growth as a way to keep inflation down and avoid a double-dip recession.
That means many profits ahead for firms invested in the retail sector, as spending power warms up before hitting full stride. The following companies all represent great firms more »
These Luxury Retailers Have Not Lost Their Luster
By Bob Ciura - July 23, 2013 | Tickers: COH, MOV, TIF
The challenges facing the American consumer have been well documented. The unemployment rate remains stubbornly high, and the onset of higher payroll taxes and the ongoing sequester serve as constant headwinds in the face of the consumer.
All the while, wealth continues to pile up for the high-end consumer. Rising housing and stock markets mean the affluent among us have more money to spend than ever. As a result, luxury more »
High-End Giant Buying to Boost Growth
By Reuben Brewer - July 23, 2013 | Tickers: BURBY, LVMUY, TIF, ULTA
Widely diversified LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton (NASDAQOTH: LVMUY) has a growth problem. Although Sephora is expanding nicely, the rest of the company isn't keeping up. It just bought an Italian cashmere company to help right the ship; are more purchases on the way?

Plummeting Gold & Silver Costs Make Jewelers Compelling Buys
By Brendan O'Boyle - July 22, 2013 | Tickers: SIG, TIF, ZLC
Much ink has been spilled on the precipitous decline of precious metal prices. While investors have focused intently on companies that are exposed to these declines, they may have overlooked the beneficiaries of lower precious metal prices. One candidate: jewelers, who craft luxury items from precious metals and then sell them to consumers at a heathy mark up. It is likely that the declining cost of gold and silver may more »
Why I Love Jewelry, Purses & Watches
By Marshall Hargrave - July 22, 2013 | Tickers: COH, FOSL, TIFAlthough they aren't always considered as defensive as major consumer-staple stocks, such as Coca-Cola or Philip Morris, the stocks that cater to the high-end markets have proven to be resilient during tough economic times, while also excelling in a bustling economy. I've long felt that either either Tiffany (NYSE: TIF) or Coach (NYSE: COH) would be great buyout candidates.
And although it's a less favorite bet of more »
Are These "Artsy" Picks Safe From e-Tailers?
By Arturo Cuevas - July 19, 2013 | Tickers: AMZN, BID, TIF
Investing in art and jewelry just might be too capital-intensive and/or too speculative for the average retail investor. The practical option here perhaps would be to invest in companies catering to the luxury or high-end markets like Sotheby's (NYSE: BID) or Tiffany & Co. (NYSE: TIF). The U.S. economic recovery may be not as robust as many would wish, but certainly the recent fundamental strengths it exhibited, such more »
Forecasting the Luxury Goods Industry
By Federico Zaldua - July 10, 2013 | Tickers: BURBY, LVMUY, TIF
The luxury goods sector is growing fast, hand-in-hand with the growth of wealth in the developing world. Countries such as Russia,China and Brazil are creating thousands of new rich families every year. One of the many direct results of this trend -- which could last many decades -- has been the tremendous growth of high-end-luxury companies. Here I will try to forecast next quarter's results for my top three luxury more »
Three Ways to Invest in a Girl's Best Friend
By Reuben Brewer - July 8, 2013 | Tickers: NILE, SIG, TIF
Jewelry is a timeliness gift and a completely discretionary expense. However, buying fancy baubles never seems to go out of style. Tiffany (NYSE: TIF), Blue Nile (NASDAQ: NILE), and Signet Jewelers (NYSE: SIG) each fill a different niche in the space.
Most people know full well that buying jewelry is an unnecessary expense. Sales are better in good times and worse when the economy cools off, but they never more »
These Companies Are Achieving Impressive Returns on Equity and Reducing Debt
By Rupert Hargreaves - July 1, 2013 | Tickers: MRK, TIF, ZMH
When it comes to investing, obviously making money is key and the best way to make money is to find the most profitable company set to generate huge amounts of cash in the future. More cash usually leads to a higher stock price and a fatter bank balance means there is potential for dividend checks, windfall payouts, or other shareholder returns.
It is difficult trying to find these elusive companies more »

3 Contrarian Ideas You Should Take a Look At

Apple's Retail Sales Are Bright
By Ishfaque Faruk - June 25, 2013 | Tickers: AAPL, LULU, TIF
Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL) retail stores have been holding up very well, as the company's glossy stores have been pulling in more and more customers. Even though more consumers are leaning towards online shopping, especially for lower ticket items, a majority of consumers still love shopping at stores, especially for higher priced items like phones, tablets, etc.
In the U.S., more than 90% of retail sales still take more »

At the same time, there are a number of smaller firms with strong brand power that are growing and are attractive investment opportunities more »
How Apple Is Losing Its Competitive Advantage

For more than a decade, Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) enjoyed several competitive advantages over its peers: breakthrough innovation, outstanding branding, and bundling of hardware with software-all limiting the entry of new competitors into Apple's turf. But there is one more advantage that boosted Apple's profitability: State of art stores with well-trained salespeople to help customers pick up and service its cool gadgets.

Actress Penelope Cruz is sick and tired of all the pregnancy rumors, and has even been forced to return baby gifts from friends because she says she is not pregnant. Read more on this story below.
There have been rumors around the Internet saying that Penelope was pregnant with boyfriend, Javier Bardem's child. There were even photos of Penelope holding her stomach and appearing to have a baby bump. But Cruz insists that she is not pregnant.
Cruz, 35, left an interview recently at the Toronto Film Festival in Canada when she was asked about the pregnancy rumors, and now she's ready to set the record straight.
She says, "I start getting some presents from friends saying, 'Congratulations, you're pregnant.' And I say, 'No, I'm not, so (I) return the presents. It's amazing."

Top 10 technologies that could live another 20 years
Summary: A blast from the 1991 past: A look at 10 technologies - hardware and software - which have, and could last another 20 years.
4 of 9Image
When the technology was founded: 19th century, part of Charles Babbage's Difference Engine.
Why the technology will be around for another 20 years: To put it simply and bluntly, how else would we get stuff out of the computer?Printers are absolutely vital to our everyday living and working. Without them, there would be no such thing as a 'papertrail' and there would be nothing to screw up in a moment of frustration to throw at your co-workers. The fact of the matter is, unless we suddenly all ditch the very notion of paper altogether - which is unlikely to ever happen, then printers will remain a vital part of our technologically progressive society.
When the technology was founded: The 'modern' television was born in 1926.
Why the technology will be around for another 20 years: Radio and television has supported the world in times of crisis and in times of joy. Even though technological developments have changed the way we listen to radio and in particular television, the window to the world is still ever present in all but every household in the modern world.
Though on-demand media and 'broadcast control' technology like Sky+ and TiVo has brought an extra dimension of command to our television broadcasts, the key element is the set itself. It's not going anywhere any time soon.
When the technology was founded: In the late 1950's and early '60's.
Why the technology will be around for another 20 years: Though you may not think it, optical media is still one of the most predominant of all storage mediums, besides the hard drive.
The problem the optical disc faces is the rise of non-optical reading equipment in modern technologies, like smartphones and more specifically, many netbooks. Though, this should not deter fans of optical media for the simple fact that so many alternatives are available for say netbook users, such as the download.
But nevertheless, optical media in its simplest form is slim, compact - hence the name, and easy to transport. Sure, it isn't as small or as sleek, or necessarily as to capacity as some flash drives, but they are far cheaper to manufacture and constantly evolving into larger storage mediums. Just compare a 700MB CD-ROM to a 4GB Blu-ray.

That behavior seems less omnipresent than it used to be. I see many people smoking cigars and cigarettes in the ramp during halftime, but fewer smoking dope. We live in a society who's mores are often hypocritical and inconsisient. And this has exactly what to do with Evans?
A. His contract stipulates he be drug-tested; he knows going in that he'll be tested; he's failed at least 2 tests and may be as many as 4; he KNEW that if he tested postive the hit for him, his family, his bank account and his team would be huge.
B. Knowing all that, he engaged in behavior or was in the presence of people doing drugs that risked all that.
C. Based on all that, Evans has a serious problem. Better Josh Evans deal with that now. Football shouldn't be a priority now. Unless he wants to become Carlton Hasselrig.

Moving to full-volume boils... 8 or 10 gallon kettle?
Hi folks! The next step in my brewing education is to go to full-volume boils for 5-gallon batches. Right now I do partial-boil extract batches at that size. I am debating between 8 and 10 gallon kettles.
When I do full-volume 1-gallon batches all-grain biab I get a boil off of about .7 gallons/hr using my turkey fryer.
Any opinions out there on which size is best? Also, any opinions on various add-ins like valves, thermometers, etc., are greatly appreciated.
I bought a 12 I think it was from a 7... I can do big stouts and sparge off like 8-9 gallons of wort for a 90-120 min boil easily with no boil overs to date.
I'd go bigger than you plan. I would have, but opted for what I got because of the price, and it being SS.
A valve is a must, IMO.. Thermometer is not needed. A boil is a boil, IMO. Finding out what the temp is when you cool would be nice, but I can sanitize my therma pen and grab that number in 3 seconds.
The rest of the additions on a kettle are just there for ease or to feel good about. A sight gauge would be nice, other than that.. skip the crap and make beer, IMO.
This 11 gallon kettle has a good price tag and works great for 5 gallon batches.
A thermapen is definitely on the wish list along with this kettle purchase. It is expensive, but between beer and the BBQ pit it is totally gonna be worth it.
Great price on that bayou classic 44qt pot. For the valve, is it as simple as drilling a hole with a stepper bit and putting in a weldless bulkhead?
10-15 gallon pot will work best. I bought an 8 gallon when I made the leap to full volume boils and wish I had bought bigger. Eventually ended up with a 15 gallon BK.
15 gal....you can always boil smaller volumes in a larger kettle, but not vice versa. Take it from those of us who under-bought and had to buy again. Buy the right size the first time.
Remember.... You will probably want an HLT at some point. In that case, you can repurpose your smaller kettle most likely! (Buy 11 gallon kettle now and use it for HLT when you get a 15-20 gallon kettle...)
I'd go with a 15 gallon pot as well.
As far as Therma Pens, they have some limited edition ones on sale right now and in cool camoflauge for $89

That dps equality does not continue in the upper levels and becomes quite drastic. Right now, if you play arcane in Raids... you will be asked to change to fire. If you go frost, they DEMAND you change to fire immediately or you will be banned forever. I've even said you shouldn't run frost in a raid, not because I hate frost (I love it, its FANTASTIC pvp), but because it then becomes too impossible to accomplish the greater fights.
Its not fair, we have one pve spec, I still play arcane, but if this patch wasn't coming I'd be asked to change. It's frustrating to work so hard and in the end it being meaningless, I feel you frost mages, though we are about to get out of that hole. Even when there was JUST arcane changes people were complaining about frost mages.
I'm convinced that no-one(all those people who QQ on forums and just really can't play pvp) will be happy with frost mages until they can simply beat them to death with no competition at all.

Cheer Mats ~ Purple Tumbling Mat (In-Stock)
Our folding cheerleading mats are an ideal piece of cheer equipment perfect for anyone practicing skills or routines. It is the same high quality as our other folding tumbling mats with the added bonus of being an invigorating purple color with an inspiring "I Love Cheer" logo. Purple cheer mats will put a smile on your young cheerleader's face and hopefully give them that extra energy they need to practice at home or at the gym. There are hook & loop fasteners on the 4' ends to allow you to combine multiple panel mats for longer tumbling series.
These folding cheer mats are available in 8' or 12' lengths. Both mat sizes fold into two-foot widths for easy stacking and storage. Each purple tumbling mat is covered with extra heavy duty, 18oz. double coated polyester fabric (more durable than the 14 oz. vinyl sold by competitors). The combination of heavy vinyl, high weave count polyester, and top coat fusing gives the best puncture and tear resistance, stitch strength, and abrasion resistance in a fabric covered mat.

A tale of two cities
October 4 2006
Since the 2005 All-Star break
Phillies fans have been wondering where all of Bobby Abreu's lost power
went. We can all rest easy. Apparently it was in New York.
Abreu had a big game last night as the Yankees jumped out to a 1-0 lead in their series with the Tigers. He went 2-for-4 with a double and four-RBI and the Yanks beat Detroit 8-4. It continues the offensive surge Abreu has seen since leaving the Phillies.
In 98 games with the Phillies this season, Abreu hit 277/427/434 in 339 at-bats with 25 doubles and eight home runs. His .434 slugging percentage was the lowest of any of his nine years with the Phillies. In 58 games with the Yankees, he tore it up to the tune of 330/419/507 in 209 at-bats, hitting seven home runs and driving in 42 runs. Abreu's numbers with the Phillies were certainly good this season, but with the Yankees he was even better. He hit .330 and refound his power stroke, slugging .507
Much has been made of the 2005 Home Run Derby and the Abreu's numbers after the contest. Abreu had a monster season in 2004 in which he hit 301/428/544 with 30 home runs and 105 RBI. It was his sixth straight year hitting at least 20 home runs, and he had slugged at least .500 in five of those six seasons. Abreu came out strong in '05 as well, he slugged .526 with 18 home runs before the All-Star break. He would slow dramatically after the break, however, slugging just .411 with six home runs the rest of the way. His power seemed down in 2006 as well, he hit just eight home runs in the first half of the season and went into the break slugging .467 as the Phillies wondered what had happened to their elite hitter turned walk machine.
If the Home Run Derby was what ruined Abreu's power swing, the trade to New York apparently was what fixed it. Abreu played his last game with the Phillies this season on July 28 against the Marlins, going 0-for-3 with a walk. He played his first game with the Yankees on August 1 and went 0-for-3 with a walk in New York against the Blue Jays. And then he took off. He went 14-for-his-next-31 with a home run and three doubles, walking just twice in those seven games. He struck out more and walked less with the Yankees. In August, his first full month with New York, he struck out 30 times, the most of any month this season. Perhaps most notably, Abreu walked in 13.3% of his plate appearances with New York and 20.8% of his plate appearances with the Phillies.
Regardless of what it all means, change in approach, a benefit of being a left-handed batter in an unreal lineup at Yankee stadium, or just a coincidence, the 209 at-bats Abreu got with the Yankees sure look a lot more like the Abreu Phillies fan's saw before the second half of the 2005 season. And while this may seem like an unfortunate coincidence to Phillies fans, it may be just that. While it would sure explain a lot if the Phils were simply cursed, it was the Phillies, not the Yankees, who got Abreu's best month this season. Bobby came out of the gate smoking hot, hitting 300/444/550 with four home runs in April. The Phillies, alas, couldn't do much with it, digging themselves into an enormous hole once again by starting the season 10-14.
In other playoff action from yesterday, the A's took a 1-0 lead on the Twins with a 3-2 win. Zito allowed just a run on four hits and three walks over eight innings and Frank Thomas went 3-for-4 with two solo shots to pace Oakland.
Albert Pujols and Chris Carpenter led the Cardinals to a win in the first game of their series with the Padres. Pujols was 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and Carpenter held the Padres to a single run in 6 1/3 innings. If you're looking for signs that might not bode particularly well for San Diego, they sent Mark Bellhorn and his .190 average from the regular season to the plate down 5-1 with one out and the bases loaded in the seventh. Didn't work out so well.
The big news out of Phillies camp is that Charlie Manuel will be back to manage the Phillies again for the 2007 season. Bench coach Gary Varsho, first-base coach Marc Bombard and third-base coach Bill Dancy all will not be returning. Other members of the coaching staff, hitting coach Milt Thompson, pitching coach Rich Dubee, bullpen coach Ramon Henderson and catching instructor Mick Billmeyer will be back for next season.

ommegang hennepin yeast
I went to college in Oneonta, NY. It was there that I developed a passion for real beer. Oneonta is 10 miles from Cooperstown, where the Baseball Hall of Fame is. Cooperstown is home to Cooperstown Brewery (actually in border town of Milford), which is a maker of English style ales. Close by is also Ommegang Brewery. I have to admit- I wasn't a big fan of Belgian Ales until after I left college and moved long away from Oneonta.
Ommegang is served in just about every state. If you haven't tried one, you should start.
Yesterday I was in a drinking mood so I bought a 6 pack of Troegs Dreamweaver Wheat (so good- possibly my favorite interpretation of a hef) and decided I'd pick up a bottle of Ommegang Hennepin. Both were stored warm and I needed beer so I froze the Hennepin and couple DW's.
I opened the Hennepin after a half hour into an appropriate drinking glass and started drinking it. Very balanced, very delicious, but what strikes me most about this beer is how great this strain of yeast is. Does anyone have info on their yeast?
I dont, but you could harvest the yeast from the bottles you were drinking...
great video on how to:
I've looked into this one. It looks like you have to culture your own. If you don't feel like that you could try Wyeast Saison I guess, since Hennepen is a Saison. Of course Ommegang uses the same yeast in all their brews, so who knows if it really is a Saison strain or not.
Hennepin is currently my new favorite beer too.
I have family in Oneonta and I love beer and baseball. I haven't been there in like 15 years. What's wrong with me?
yea man you're gonna have to get on that.
ways i sees it: i could spend $7-8 for a 25 oz bottle, or i could try and replicate it for $50/50 12 oz bottles.
^^^ awesome video by the way slim. beats working on a friday!
Hell, I'm working...working on brewing up 3 new beers for this weekend! I lucked out and realized I had too much vacation time left on the books, so three day weekend here we go!
I've got some of their yeast that I harvested from a Rare Vos bottle - it's got just the right amount of funk to it and eats sugar like crazy!
I wanted to make a crazy Belgian yeast combo, harvested yeast from an Ommegang Witte and a Unibroue Blanche de Chambly. Got each one back to life combined them both and brewed a Belgian Blonde, just brewed a peated rye ale and pored on top of the yeast cake and had one if my most furious fermentations. The blonde tasted great, and are excited to use this yeast in the future. Good luck.

Hmmm, seems like more of a subtle change where they should up the drops still. I remember still having some very frustrating drop rates in places such as Zul Drak.
The drop rates for the Frenzy dailies are ridiculous. In fact the frenzy dailies are ridiculously boring as it is (kill 50 of them? christ...)
I agree. There's a quest in HF where you have to dive underwater to catch fish from bushes. The first 7 bushes I checked I got 1 fish. Which is a terrible small quest rate, but in and of itself isn't awful. The sucky part is you have to swim from bush to bush, which takes forever. And it's not just a gather quest, its one of those gather, probably fight a hidden mob quests. Which are even more annoying since it combines the tedium of searching AND the tedium of killing a mob you really don't want to have to deal with. I was like 'you've got to be kidding me, how is this quest fun?'
I did the quest again on an alt, and it seems to take about 20+ bushes to get the 7 fish and took 10 minutes. The irritating thing is it unlocks other quests so you've got to do it. They've done an awesome job with this expansion, but someone fell asleep on that quest =)
Note: the horde journal part is funny, but considering you end up with 4-5 of them they should have all had different text to keep you occupied...

After Senate conservatives "filibustered an omnibus budget bill" yesterday, they set "a modern-day record for blocking the most legislation during a congressional session," according to a new report by the Campaign for America's Future. In just the first year of the 110th Congress, conservatives have used the filibuster 62 times, topping the record set by the entire 107th Congress. Bill Scher notes some of the legislation conservatives have worked to block.
Senate conservatives break all-time obstructionism record.

|J2EETM Developer's Guide
Some applications have special security requirements. For example, an application might make authorization decisions based on the time of day, the parameters of a call, or the internal state of an enterprise bean. Another application might restrict access based on user information stored in a database. If your application has special security requirements, you may want to take advantage of the APIs described in the following sections.
getCallerPrincipal method of the
EJBContext interface returns the
java.security.Principal object that identifies the caller of the enterprise bean. (In this case, a principal is the same as a user.) In the following example, the
getUser method of an enterprise bean returns the name of the J2EE user that invoked it:
To determine the caller of a servlet, you invoke thepublic String getUser() { return context.getCallerPrincipal().getName(); } . . . public void setSessionContext(SessionContext context) { this.context = context; }
getUserPrincipal method.
isCallerInRole method:
You should declare the coded name (Customer) in the Security dialog box of the New Enterprise Bean wizard of the Application Deployment Tool. When you are ready to deploy the application, you must link the coded name with a role name. For example, to link the Customer coded name with the Buyer role name, you would follow these steps:boolean result = context.isCallerInRole("Customer");
1. Select the Security tabbed pane of the enterprise bean.
2. If the Customer entry does not appear in the Coded Name column, click Add and enter Customer in that column.
3. If the Buyer role name is not listed in the Method Permissions table, click Edit Roles and add Buyer in the Editing Roles dialog box.
4. Go to the table at the top of the Security tabbed pane and locate the row that lists Customer in the Coded Name column. In that row, select Buyer from the Role Name combo box.Because a coded name is linked to a role name, you may change the role name later on without having to change the coded name. For example, if you were to change the role name from Buyer to Shopper, you wouldn't have to change the Customer name in the code. However, you would have to relink the Customer coded name to the Shopper role name.
To determine the caller's role for a servlet, you invoke the
isUserInRole method.

"I used the online chat twice and they were very helpful. I made specific requests on what I wanted it to say and it turned out great!"
"I loved that WPD was able to customized this card using the color I wanted. I was able to add a cute quote on the back and it was in postcard format, so it left 4 lines to write addresses. These are adorable and not expensive! Word to the next bride sending out save-the-dates, you don't need as many for as many guests as you have! If you have 150, you probably only need about half, assuming some people live together. So, my mistake was that I ended up with too many, but WPD is not at fault."
"We loved this design in both colors, but with a fall wedding went with the autumn colors. It also had the warm feeling we were looking for the whole day with a wedding at a mansion. Elegant, yet simple, warm and inviting. Editing the text on the reverse side was easy, and the staff helped add the return address. Having a digital proof to see was wonderful, and there was a quick response when changes were requested. Love the service!!! After the proof was approved, the cards arrived very quickly. Thanks so much!!"
"I used this for my Save the dates. The postcard came very quickly and it looks exactly as it does online. It's simple and I don't know much about paper quality but it doesn't feel cheap. I chose not to have any words on the back so I can't speak for how they come out."
"I was happily surprised how these turned out. The paper is very very high quality and thick yet the images are beautifully printed on them. i actually finagled my images so instead of 2 images on the bottom I have 1 image by strategically placing the 2 ends of the whole image together and I was worried there would be a seam buth the alignment was perfect. My only negative feedback (and not enough of one for me to take away any score) was I had tried to customize it so the leaves werent there but they told me that was a change they were unable to make. They are beautiful none-the-less and Ive already gotten compliments on their quality."

New business development
Absa trials payments via mobile phone10 January 2012 Banking group Absa conducted South Africa's first live user trial of Near Field Communication (NFC) technology on mobile phones in December, with 500 of the bank's staff members using the technology in a commercial environment. The bank partnered with global financial services provider Mastercard to embed the Paypass Tap and Go payment chip on cellular handsets for the trial, enabling participants to load funds onto their phones through the Absa website or ATMs. They can then pay for goods or services by merely holding their phone in front of a NFC-enabled pay point, with the value of the transaction being instantly debited from their stored value. The trial enabled participants to pay for goods at coffee shops, canteens, and later, at other service providers that are located at Absa's head office buildings in central Johannesburg. "Absa is the first institution in South Africa to bring Near Field Communication capabilities with an EMV (Europay, Mastercard and Visa) card payment application to a handset," said Absa retail markets head Arrie Rautenbach in a statement last month.
Paving the way for consumer utilisation
Rautenbach explained that the trial paved the way for consumer market utilisation of the mobile phone as a payment device using revolutionary NFC technology.
"While this trial will facilitate low value payments in retail and transit in early stages, we envision many more exciting new forms of mobile payment in the future," he said.
The mobile payment system also contains the National Department of Transport data structure which will, in future, facilitate more advanced payments in transit.
The application on the phone will store details of the commuter, the day and time, where they entered and exited the transit system - and use this information to calculate the fares.
From the customer's perspective, the benefits of NFC will include faster
transactions, shorter queues, increased levels of security and the ability to electronically track their spending habits.
Trial to provide key insights
Research In Motion�s Blackberry phones were used as the initial handset for mobile payment trials. The Blackberry devices are equipped with an NFC wireless chip, making it well-suited for mobile payments.
All payment and NFC services that are available on the handset can then be accessed from the mobile phone's main menu, in addition to information about services available, and customer support.
"This trial is going to provide key insights which will prove crucial to refining the customer experience as we bring NFC on mobile to market," said Absa Digital Banking deputy managing executive Adrian Vermooten. "In time to come, consumers will store any type of payment cards in their mobile wallet on their handsets, and either pay online by tapping the phone on a merchant's reader or on a person-to-person
"This new technology is paving the way and building acceptance networks for mobile payments in future."
Close cooperation required
Absa has worked extensively over the past few years with its global parent company Barclays, through its card division Barclaycard, who are among the global leaders in contactless and this form of mobile payment.
"Our relationship with Barclaycard has provided our Absa team with both the inspiration and the expertise that is necessary to make this new payment form a reality," said Rautenbach.
He added that international experience and various research papers showed that for close cooperation of major players in the "NFC ecosystem" such as banks, network operators, retailers, cellular handset manufacturers and information technology partners was required for NFC to become a reality.
"As we learn from the practical, hands-on experiences of the trial, we will continue our discussions and deepen our
relationships with the major players in the 'NFC ecosystem' to develop the commercial models, and extend the variety of payments instruments made available by the wallet."

Follow me on Instagram to get a sneak peek of my current projects. Follow me on Pinterest to see what inspires me! I gave you a sneak last week of the upcycled knit fabric (you can also use t-shirts!) skirts I made for my daughter. I must admit I am slightly obsessed with making them. {…Read More…}

Welcome to my World…A Photoshoot Gone Awry
I am sure you have seen and heard plenty of bloggers talk about how many photos they shoot for one post. It is hundreds. And then you edit them and make them look all blog pretty. The nice part about most of my photo shoots is that the object fully cooperates. Unless it doesn't…
DIY Upcycled T-shirt Dress
I am loving upcycling old t-shirts. T-shirt material is so forgiving and it usually doesn't need extra prep for the edges not to fray. I was inspired by Cheri from I am Momma Hear Me Roar to try my sewing skills at using t-shirts to make a layered dress for Kayla. I must say once you get the hang of it you can't stop making them. They are so fun and embellishing makes them each unique.
Handmade Halloween Cards {with free Silhouette cut file}
Kayla absolutely loves art and I am always looking for useful projects she can do. Yesterday she got a card in the mail from her other grandma and is itching to write her back. So today I came up with come cut out Halloween cards that she could color or use washi tape behind it to dress it up. She loves getting to use mommy's special tape so she was all over it. I made the Silhouette files available for those that have the machine. This would be a great Halloween classroom craft for teacher's too.

Ring in your New Year the Python way with an utterly "NI-licious" screening of one of the greatest comedies of all time, Monty Python and the Holy Grail! The festivities begin at 11:00 pm with hilarious pre-show Python quote-a-long and sing-a-long clips, a free raffle for ridiculous Python-related prizes, New Year's party favors and light hors d'oeuvres. Then, just before midnight, a countdown and champagne toast kick off the movie! So silly walk down to The Loft, check your pet killer rabbit and portable shrubbery at the door, and join us in telling the Old Year that its mother was a hamster and its father smelled of elderberries! Hazzah for 2014!
PLUS: Monty Python's Holy Ail will be available at the snack bar to quench all Arthurian-sized thirsts!
It's the movie beloved by anyone with a pulse and a cracked sense of humor! Written and performed by all your favorites - Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin - Monty Python and the Holy Grail takes on the Middle Ages and converts Arthurian legend into uncontrollable lunacy! If you're already a fan (and name one person who's seen it who isn't!), you won't want to miss the chance to enjoy the film the way it's meant to be experienced - on the Big Screen, in a movie theater, with other die-hard Python fans laughing at the gags and reciting the dialogue. Prance along with King Arthur and his brave and foolish Knights of the Round Table (they dance whenever they're able) as they embark upon their lunatic quest for the ultimate treasure … a shrubbery! But our heroes must beware, for death awaits them all with nasty, big, pointy teeth! (Dir. by Terry Gilliam & Terry Jones, 1975, UK, 91 mins., Rated PG) Digital

There's something to be said for tradition, and Little Italy's annual Columbus Day Parade is certainly by now a Baltimore tradition.
"It's the longest running parade in U.S. history," said Tom Martin of Columbus Celebrations, the group that organizes the march.
This is the 122nd year of the Columbus Day Parade, which begins on Sunday, Oct. 7, at 2 p.m. The procession starts at the corner of Key Highway and Light St., and marches down Pratt St. to Columbus Plaza in Little Italy.
"We've had a couple years where funds were short and the procession was smaller," said Martin, "but it was still a parade of people going through Little Italy."
The day of parade-related events begins with a Mass at St. Leo the Great Church at 9:30 a.m., followed by a wreath-laying ceremony at 10:45.
This is the second year that the Columbus Day Parade has featured a 50-50 raffle, which according to Martin can be quite lucrative for the winner.
"$10,300 was the winning amount last year," he said.
Tickets for the raffle cost $20, and can be purchased via email from Martin: email@example.com. Proceeds go to next year's parade.
The Columbus Day Parade celebrates Italian heritage, but that's not the only group represented.
"In the last several years, we've gotten the Latino Community involved," said Martin. "We encourage everybody to come out."
The parade features antique cars, drum majors from school groups, and groups from Italian organizations. There is also flatbed truck covered with grapes that are stomped while Italian music plays. The U.S. Naval Academy Band also plays on another truck.
"It's an amazing band," said Martin.
The Baltimore Police will have officers riding horses in the parade, and the Knights of Columbus will be represented as well.
Last year, an antique fire truck was shipped over from Genoa, Italy, along with 40 Italian firefighters, to add to the procession's allure. In previous years, Italian policemen and Italian boxers who competed in the Olympics marched in the parade.
"We try to do something new and creative every year," said Alfredo Massa, chairman of the parade.
This year is no exception. The mayor of the Italian city of Montesarchio, located in the province of Benevento, will be marching.
"This is the first time that a mayor from Italy has been in a parade in the United States," said Massa.
Organizing the parade is largely a volunteer effort. Columbus Celebrations has meetings periodically throughout the year, and many of the Italian Organizations—the Sons of Italy, for example—are represented.
"We encourage people of all groups to come to our meetings," said Martin.

More about the Conference
The Ontario Coaches Conference welcomes more than 400 amateur coaches from across the province, ranging from community volunteers to full-time professional coaches. The Conference has become a can't-miss event on the provincial sport event calendar since 2007, involving coaches from as many as 50 sporting disciplines, including those working with Olympic and Paralympic athletes.
Conference highlights include inspirational keynote speakers, National Coaching Certification Program clinics, unique networking opportunities and a showcase of coaching-related vendors (2014 Trade Show Vendor Application).

"Sport is important in our community and we are thrilled to be hosting coaches from across the province as they discuss best practices, instruction and resources to see our athletes excel at the provincial, national and international levels." – Kingston Mayor Mark Gerretsen
NCCP Workshops
All NCCP workshops are priced individually and run concurrent to the conference. You do not need a development session registration to take an NCCP course. However…

The Ontario Coaches Conference is hosted by the Coaches Association of Ontario with the generous support of the Ontario government. Thanks to funding received through the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport's Quest for Gold program, Ontario coaches are able to participate in this professional development opportunity at a subsidized cost.
