Exclusive outtakes from industry leaders
from Global Investing:
BRIC: Brilliant/Ridiculous Investment Concept
BRIC is Brazil, Russia, India, China -- the acronym coined by Goldman Sachs banker Jim O'Neill 10 years back to describe the world's biggest, fastest-growing and most important emerging markets. But according to Albert Edwards, Societe Generale's uber-bearish strategist, it also stands for Bloody Ridiculous Investment Concept. Some investors, licking their wounds due to BRIC markets' underperformance in 2011 and 2010, might be inclined to agree -- stocks in all four countries have performed worse this year than the broader emerging markets equity index, to say nothing of developed world equities.
For years, money has chased BRIC investments, tempted by the countries' fast growth, huge populations and explosive consumer hunger for goods and services. But Edwards cites research showing little correlation between growth and investment returns. He points out that Chinese nominal GDP growth may have averaged 15.6 percent since 1993 but the compounded return on equity investments was minus 3.3 percent.
But economic growth -- the BRIC holy grail -- is also now slowing. Data showed this week that Brazil posted zero growth in the third quarter of 2011 compared to last year's 7.5 percent. Indian growth is at the weakest in over two years. In Russia, rising discontent with the Kremlin -- reflected in post-election protests -- carries the risk of hitting the broader economy. And China, facing falling exports to a moribund Western world, is also bound to slow. Edwards goes a step further and flags a hard landing in China as the biggest potential investment shock of 2012. "Yet investors persist in the BRIC superior growth fantasy...If growth does matter to investors, they should be worried that
things seem to be slowing sharply in the BRIC universe," he writes.
Thomson Reuters data earlier this year appeared to show some disenchantment with the BRIC concept. After rising 1600-fold between 2003 and 2007, assets in BRIC funds had shrunk to $28 billion by August 2011, almost a quarter below 2007 peaks, a bigger fall in percentage terms than most other fund categories.
from Global Investing:
Time up for emerging markets?
Well, not in the long-run, no. You would be hard pressed to find an economist, investor or even politician who does not reckon the global shift in growth to Asia and Latin America is going to be the story of the coming decade, century etc.
But in the shorter term, strange things are happening. MSCI's benchmark emerging market stock index is barely in the black for the year. Even more surprising is that it is underperforming its developed market counterpart.
Wealth Management: What does the future hold?
Even the rich aren't as well-off as they were a year ago but that's not stopping the wealth management industry from focusing on what the future of private banking will look like after the economic downturn has passed. Click below to view my latest story:
Debt collecting gets…er, sexy?
Bank employees working in call centers and reminding clients of their overdue loans used to be as far to the bottom of the banking food chain as you could be. Not any more.
Raiffeisen International, the second-biggest lender in eastern Europe, has ramped up staff in its collections and risk management departments.
Stop lumping us together! say Central Europeans
An invitation to the Reuters Central European Investment Summit may sound perfectly acceptable to many policy makers and executives but not to Czech central banker Mojmir Hampl. It's not that he objected to visiting our Vienna office and being interviewed by a crew of editors — Hampl was ready and willing to do that. He just questioned the very idea of lumping together all the different countries in a very diverse region.
"I'm a bit disappointed that the key topic is how the Central and Eastern European region will develop," Hampl told us, reviving a complaint often heard around the region. It's a serious issue, one that has bothered many policy makers in central European countries, who grew frustrated at the height of the financial crisis that investors were not differentiating between those with sound fundamentals such as the Czech Republic and Poland and those on decidedly shakier ground.
Emerging Europe – what's next?
Reuters Central European Investment Summit, September 28-30, 2009
The former Communist countries of central Europe have been the last to be hit by the global economic crisis, but th e hit they took was among the hardest. Only big neighbour Russia's deep plunge into recession is rivaling the sharp fall from record economic growth that's in store this year for the economies between the former Soviet Union and Western Europe.
Global risk aversion and deleveraging exposed the weaknesses that the countries had been able to gloss over during the boom years – which in retrospect appeared to have been, in some countries, a colossal binge bankrolled by cheap foreign credit extended by Western European banks that had to come to an end when funding dried up.
Expect action in Japanese M&A
After falling off a cliff at the start of this year as the global financial crisis gripped, mergers and acquisitions by Japanese companies overseas are likely to pick up again in the second half of this year, according to boutique Japanese M&A advisory firm Recof Corp.
There won't be a flood of deals, Recof President Hikari Imai says, but the ones there are, are likely to be chunky as Japanese companies expand their frontiers beyond domestic markets where growth prospects are limited.
AUDIO – A new emerging market for real estate
Remember the good old days where — if you lived in the United States anyway — people would talk about "emerging markets"?
We'd nod our heads knowingly, wishing these poor folks the best as they tried to accumulate the swell things we had bought for ourselves. We knew that residents of Mumbai or Caracas or somewhere would never attain the great things we had in such abundance here in the good old USA (Hummers; his and hers monogrammed dishtowels; zero down, 110% mortgages on houses we couldn't afford … that kind of stuff), but we still wished them well.
Paper makers bet on sector despite clouds ahead
Despite the dark cloud hanging over the forestry sector, most industry leaders said they still see the paper business as a good investment.
Overcapacity has kept a lid on paper prices for years, while increasing costs of wood and energy have eaten into the paper makers' already low margins.

Vanilla: Ironforge and Dun Morogh. Those two just sound so beautiful, and the sad parts of the Dun Morogh/Mountain music just... Cuts me to the bone...
BC: Nagrand. Likely the most multi-emotional piece of music ever made, yet each bit is so similar to each other.
WoTLK: Sholazar Basin and Rise of The Vrykul (Utgarde). Sholazar basin because unlike Nagrand which is saddening, this is mostly relaxing. And the bit called Rise of The Vrykul because it's so epic that i nearly trash a piece of furniture very time i hear it. Thank you Blizzard, for using Rise of The Vrykul in the ICC themes.

Workers visited before boy's malnutrition death
Friday - 11/16/2012, 6:39am EST
VERMILION, Ohio (AP) - An investigator says child care workers from a government-funded program visited a northern Ohio family two months before their 18-month-old son died of malnutrition.
Erie County Sheriff's Chief Deputy Jared Oliver told The Morning Journal in Lorain ( http://bit.ly/QLpO1s) he couldn't say whether any concerns were raised when workers from the Help Me Grow program visited the family in Vermilion. The program often helps parents of young children with disabilities.
No charges have been filed in the boy's death, but six other children were removed from the home.
Four were hospitalized with medical concerns including malnutrition. Oliver says those children are doing better and gaining weight.
Authorities have said many of the children have physical or mental disabilities.
The state plans to investigate how social workers handled the family's case.

Violence and risky behavior are permeating Hollywood's most successful movies and bringing a message to young people that violence is acceptable, this according to a new study by the Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania.
The study, released Monday by the journal Pediatrics, found that nearly 90% of top-grossing movies over a 25-year period show main characters acting violently, and in 77% of the movies those characters also engage in sex-, alcohol- or tobacco-related behavior.
PG-13 movies featured a main character acting violently and involved in either drinking, sexual behavior or smoking within a five-minute segment -- leading researchers to conclude that movies are "potentially teaching youth that violence is as acceptable as these other behaviors."
"We know that some teenagers imitate what they see on-screen," said Amy Bleakley, lead author of the study. "What concerns us is that movies aimed at younger viewers are making a connection between violence and a variety of risky behaviors - sex, drinking and smoking."
The study, entitled "Violent Film Characters' Portrayal of Alcohol, Sex, and Tobacco-Related Behaviors," analyzed characters' actions in five-minute segments in 390 of the biggest box office movies from 1985 to 2010.
"There's kind of a James Bond effect, in which violence is glamorized in combination with other behaviors we otherwise try to discourage in youth," said Dan Romer, a co-author of the study.
Researchers cited James Bond thrillers "Quantum of Solace" (2008) and "Casino Royale" (2006), as well "Mission: Impossible II" (2000). Those films were all rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America.
The study also found that violent characters appearing in R-rated movies were twice as likely as those in PG-13 movies to engage in "explicit sex" -- with researchers finding that occurred in 16.6% of R-rated movies and 7.8% of PG-13 films.

Hasselbeck's departure from 'The View' coming soon?
Report says co-host will announce her exit from daytime talk show in June
If you thought Barbara Walters' recent retirement announcement would put an end to rumors that Elisabeth Hasselbeck is also leaving "The View," think again.
Hasselbeck, 35, will announce her departure in June, reports Showbiz411.com. The story goes on to say a new season of "The View" will kick off after Labor Day with two new co-hosts. Back in March, Joy Behar announced her exit after co-hosting for 16 seasons. Behar, 70, will bow out when the current season ends in August.
Bing: More on 'The View' | Barbara Walters | Elisabeth Hasselbeck
Shortly after Behar said she was leaving "The View," rumors that producers were pushing Hasselbeck out the door grabbed headlines. According to Us Weekly, a viewers' poll deemed Hasselbeck "too extreme and right wing." Hasselbeck, a former "Survivor" contestant, joined "The View" in November 2003. Scuttlebutt that CNN's president, Jeff Zucker, was reportedly interested in Hasselbeck and her conservative views also surfaced around the same time. Although Walters has denied Hasselbeck's departure from "The View," Hasselbeck has been uncharacteristically mum on the subject.

Possible replacements for Behar and Hasselbeck include Brooke Shields and Jenny McCarthy.

Angela Agrippa is an emotional wreck.
"This home just means everything to us, it's just going to be so hard to walk away," she said.
That is her worst nightmare, but it could happen in just four months.
Agrippa bought her home back in 1991 for $61,000. She took a couple of home loans out on it over the years. But the sale of a rental property helped her pay off much of those loans years later.
Now the payoff is roughly $89,000. Realtors have told her she could sell it for $140,000.
So Agrippa is not like other homeowners who are underwater in their homes. That's why she's so confused as to why she is still begging her mortgage company for a loan modification.
"Once they serve those papers and file them, that's it. You're in for the battle of foreclosure, and you're at their mercy. They're in complete control," Agrippa continued.
Back in 2006, her partner of 11 years, Jimmy Martino, got injured on the job. He was eventually let go and over time, the part-time work dried up.
Agrippa suffers from rheumatoid arthritis, which has costly medication. The family fell into foreclosure.
Then this past March, Jimmy died from a massive heart attack.
"The last thing he would have wanted is for me to lose this home. But he just couldn't maintain employment. He was in pain -- a lot."
Agrippa says she has sent every piece of paperwork Chase has asked for and resubmitted it when they needed it again. So, as she waits for word from Chase, she decided to get creative: She secured a 16-by-20 tarp on her roof. Big white letters read, "Obama Save My Home."
"I want to ask President Obama, why aren't I being granted a HAMP (Home Affordable Modification Program) modification. I qualify, I meet all the criteria."
President Obama flew into Tampa on Thursday. She was hoping on that trip or one of his many other campaign stops here, Air Force One might fly over her house.
"That I'd get his attention, that maybe he'd help me. That's what he's campaigning for and that's who he's supposed to be helping, the poor person, or the person that's trying really hard in their life."
Tampa foreclosure attorney Mark Stopa says it's rare to have loan modifications. He says the way the system is set up, banks have no incentive to modify a homeowners loan.
Stopa says that's because the government pays the banks back for foreclosures, plus back money owed.
He says smaller banks are more likely to modify loans because they don't get the insurance from the government.
If she doesn't get the modification, Agrippa and her 6-year-old daughter must be out of their home by January 21.

Optimize server virtualization backup with careful planning
To optimize server virtualization backup, design a system that won't steal server resources. This tip covers virtualization backup planning and testing.
One of the big advantages of performing snapshots is that they reduce the recovery point objective and recovery time objective for a virtual server backup. They also help optimize server performance.

Consider a popular virtualization backup technology like VMware Consolidated Backup (VCB). In this case, a virtual machine (VM) is duplicated to a separate server that executes a backup process to disk or even tape -- any I/O load on the backup server does not affect the production server at all. Similarly, VM snapshot backups performed through storage subsystem utilities have little effect on the server hosting that VM.
Optimize server performance during backups
A more significant concern for virtualization backup planners is the need to pause applications running in VMs during the process. This is typical when the backup tool is not virtualization-aware.
When the application is paused, it is unavailable to users and can reduce productivity, even for a few minutes at a time. Although many backup tools will protect VMs, organizations should opt for virtualization-aware tools that need not pause each application, which helps optimize server performance.
Software changes are another tricky area. In a traditional virtualization backup, patching or updating the backup tool to another version can cause unexpected changes to the backup workflow or leave existing backups inaccessible. Backup software updates should also be a critical area in a virtualized environment -- an even greater concern now that so many VMs are involved. Testing is also essential before rolling out a new virtual backup tool.
Ultimately, experts advise careful planning when you optimize server virtualization backup. Consider the interdependencies of servers computing resources, VM distribution, software tools and storage requirements. The backup scheme must be appropriate for your business needs and goals.
Trends in virtualization backup
The next 12 months for virtualization backup promise an evolution rather than a revolution. Virtualization technology is quickly moving into the mainstream, and vendors of all sizes are taking steps to provide virtual support for all types of products.
"We're seeing third-party support vendors and all the pieces around network infrastructure start to create virtualization-aware products," said Dave Sobel, CEO of Evolve Technologies, a solutions provider in Fairfax, Va.
He added that even disk defragmentation tools like Diskeeper are now virtualization-aware.
As tools like VCB continue to evolve, other virtualization backup tools should become more extensible, more interoperable and more transparent. Backup agents should also become more efficient, reducing their footprint when installed onto individual VMs.
Improvements in virtual backups should also be driven by fierce competition between manufacturers -- starting with leaders such as VMware, Citrix Systems Inc., and Microsoft. End users can only benefit from competition, which should also trickle down to the ranks of third-party backup product vendors.

London • Ann Curry, replaced as one of the NBC's "Today" show hosts in June, made a return to the show's set in London.
Curry was on the "Today" set in London on Thursday to introduce a filmed report on a still photographer. She lost her job as Matt Lauer's co-anchor in June and was replaced by Savannah Guthrie.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Her story appeared in the show's second hour. She introduced it while sitting on the set next to Lauer, and had no on-air interactions with others on the "Today" team.
Curry's banter with Lauer seemed polite but distant. Lauer said "nice to see you" at the outset and "good to see you" at the end. Curry returned neither sentiment.
She had appeared on "Today" once since her ouster, reporting from Aurora, Colo., after the movie theater shooting there.

O'Driscoll admits baby distraction
ESPN Staff
February 27, 2013
Brian O'Driscoll in action against England © Getty Images
Brian O'Driscoll has admitted that his thoughts were elsewhere during their Six Nations loss to England due to the birth of his daughter on the morning of the match.
O'Driscoll was called at 8.30am by his wife on the day of the game and after she had given birth to their new daughter Sadie, he was back in the team hotel by midday. Ireland ended up losing the match 12-6 to England and while O'Driscoll started the game, he has revealed that he was not able to offer his usual high standard of leadership to the rest of the team.
"I don't even remember a lot of the game and I was in my own world for much of the time," O'Driscoll told the Telegraph. "It was the sort of match that needed a bit of leadership from me but which I wasn't quite able to deliver as I usually would have hoped to have done. It was all quite bizarre. I didn't make any great errors but I didn't add a huge amount either. It was a day of extremes.
"I was playing a game of that importance and yet, in an instant, my whole perspective had changed. This most wonderful thing had happened. Everything else paled into insignificance."
And O'Driscoll admits that the birth of his daughter has been a welcome distraction with Ireland currently on just one win out of three in this season's Six Nations. He added: "I would have thought a lot about rugby matters at this time of year. Now I don't have time to think about rugby at all. That's no bad thing, perhaps, with the results we've had over the last couple of weeks."
O'Driscoll will now hope to finish the season on a high with the British & Irish Lions tour coming up in the summer. He was a member of the Lions squad for their last three tours and looks set to be named in the party come April, but he is adamant that his place in the touring group is not set in stone.
"We need to win this one. I'd love to go but I take nothing for granted. We need to get ourselves sorted in Ireland, if we want to get the numbers on the trip that we might have hoped for."

Maybe "nobody's perfect," as one character in this masterpiece suggests. But some movies are perfect, and Some Like It Hot is one of them. In Chicago, during the Prohibition era, two skirt-chasing musicians, Joe and Jerry (Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon), inadvertently witness the St. Valentine's Day Massacre. In order to escape the wrath of gangland chief Spats Colombo (George Raft), the boys, in drag, join an all-woman band headed for Florida. They vie for the attention of the lead singer, Sugar Kane (Marilyn Monroe), a much-disappointed songbird who warbles "I'm Through with Love" but remains vulnerable to yet another unreliable saxophone player. (When Curtis courts her without his dress, he adopts the voice of Cary Grant--a spot-on impersonation.) The script by director Billy Wilder and I.A.L. Diamond is beautifully measured; everything works, like a flawless clock. Aspiring screenwriters would be well advised to throw away the how-to books and simply study this film. The bulk of the slapstick is handled by an unhinged Lemmon and the razor-sharp Joe E. Brown, who plays a horny retiree smitten by Jerry's feminine charms. For all the gags, the film is also wonderfully romantic, as Wilder indulges in just the right amounts of moonlight and the lilting melody of "Park Avenue Fantasy." Some Like It Hot is so delightfully fizzy, it's hard to believe the shooting of the film was a headache, with an unhappy Monroe on her worst behavior. The results, however, are sublime. --Robert Horton
What are you worried about? This job is going to last a long time.
Suppose it doesn't?
Jerry, boy, why do you have to paint everything so black?
Oh, please.
Suppose you got hit by a truck. Suppose the stock market crashes. Suppose Mary Pickford divorces Douglas Fairbanks. Suppose the Dodgers leave Brooklyn!
Ah... Joe...
Suppose Lake Michigan overflows.
Well don't look now, but the whole town is underwater!

William Rankin
In the summer of 1959, Rankin was flying from South Weymouth Naval Air Station, Massachusetts to Beaufort, South Carolina. He climbed over a thunderhead that peaked at 45,000 ft (13.7 km), then—at 47,000 ft (14.3 km) & at mach 0.82—he heard a loud bump and rumble from the engine. The engine stopped, and a fire warning light flashed. He pulled the lever to deploy auxiliary power, and it broke off in his hand.
Though not wearing a pressure suit, at 6:00 pm he ejected into the −50°C air. He suffered immediate frostbite, and decompression caused his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth to bleed. His abdomen swelled severely. He managed to make use of his emergency oxygen supply.
Five minutes after he abandoned the plane, his parachute hadn't opened. While in the upper regions of the thunderstorm, with near-zero visibility, the parachute opened. After ten minutes, Rankin was still aloft, carried by updrafts and getting hit by hailstones. Violent spinning and pounding caused him to vomit. Lightning appeared, which he described as blue blades several feet thick, and thunder that he could feel. The rain forced him to hold his breath to keep from drowning. One lightning bolt lit up the parachute, making Rankin believe he had died. Conditions calmed, and he descended into a forest. His watch read 6:40 pm. He searched for help and eventually was admitted into a hospital at Ahoskie, North Carolina. He suffered from frostbite, welts, bruises, and severe decompression.

Dare to Wear Colorful French Tips with Stickers 0
Today I tried out a couple of new Dare to Wear polishes that I recently purchased. They are a bright yellow called Yellow Twist, and a bright blue called Pillow Talk. I started with three coats of Yellow Twist to get a nice solid yellow base. Normally I would only apply two coats, but I(…)READ MORE »

This year, for my annual fundraiser, I'm joining forces with the Homeless Garden Project! I'll be setting up at their pop-up Valentine's Gift store this Sunday.
They recently welcomed a baby girl to their family and their wedding that we photographed in 2012 was featured in Glamour Magazine's wedding blog!
I also just learned that Ebonye had her first novel published! Check back for details.
They really tied the knot! I've never had a couple do this before.
What a personality!
Their intimate ceremony and reception were held at Lulu Carpenter's cafe in downtown Santa Cruz, CA. Being New York natives, the newlyweds insisted on a Jamaican style wedding feast from Spicy Roy's in San Jose. Lezlie Johnson created the bouquets and centerpieces. The Buttery provided the wedding cake. Hair & makeup by Lorene Stewart.
Click here to see their wedding featured by Glamour Magazine.
With the holidays over, it's time to start planning your wedding! This year, Rebecca Stark Photography will be at both the Central Coast Bride Magazine's Bridal Show and the Cocoanut Grove Bridal Expo.
If your wedding is in the Monterey, Pebble Beach, Big Sur or Carmel area, you should check out Monterey's Wonderful Winter Bridal Show on Sunday January 12, 2014, 12 – 4pm in Seaside, CA. Click here for info on their FB page.
If your wedding will be in the Santa Cruz, Aptos, Capitola area, check out the Cocoanut Grove 2014 Bridal Expo on Sunday January 26, 2014, 10am – 4pm at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. Click here for info on their FB page.
Check out this feature article about me from last year.
Both shows are epicenters of all things bridal! Dozens of experienced wedding vendors, delicious cake and food samples, prizes and fashion shows. Not only will you be inspired by the decor, wedding experts and images, you can actually plan your whole wedding in one afternoon! If you go, make sure you stop by my booth and say hello:) I'll be raffling a complimentary portrait session! Call me if you would like to chat about your wedding 831-325-4183. Happy New Year!
What could be more romantic than crossing the pond, renting a convertible Mustang and eloping in Big Sur with your closest friends and family? I love the sense of adventure couples who elope seem to possess. Neil & Kirsty did just that when they planned their destination wedding in Big Sur.
It's always great working with Zee with Lyssabeth's Wedding Officiants.
A kilt is always a welcome sight at a wedding!
Besties share a "broment" after the ceremony.
The newlyweds:)
Let the wedding feast begin! I'm sure the guests loved the wedding favors. Champagne flutes from Tiffany's! Click here to view more images from this wedding. Check out the video of the Wind & Sea House. If you are planning to elope in Big Sur or anywhere in Northern California, give me a call. Rebecca Stark 831-325-4183

Yes. He was condemned to die with you.
This journal says that he escaped from the death-cart as it rumbled to the scaffold through the crowd.
[Starting, and with great emphasis.]
[Holding out the paper.]
See for yourself!
[GOUROC takes paper eagerly.
[Entering, with a cry of joy.]
[Holding out his arms.]
[Embracing the DUKE.]
In days of misery, a moment such as this is sweet indeed. But how did you escape? I saw your name among the guillotined.
[Turning to GOUROC.]
This gentleman wrought a way for our deliverance!—Monsieur le Marquis de Vaux.
[Grasping GOUROC'S hand.]
Monsieur—the King's friends are all your debtors.
Nay, sir, the debt is mine. Tis a privilege to save such precious lives.
[Presenting DIANE.]
Here's a lass you played with, years ago.
What!—My little cousin—grown so stately and so sad! Mademoiselle, I claim a kinsman's right to kiss away these shadows.
And I yield the right with pleasure, cousin Henri.
[Kisses her.]
Good cheer, sweet cousin! You are now protected by the soldiers of the King, who—God willing—will punish those who brought this shadow to your face.
That may not prove an easy task! Granville is overrun with rebels, who are urged to most atrocious crimes by Carrac.
Yes—Thomas Carrac—a brutal monster, reeking with loyal blood; a loathsome anarchist, who glories in the vilest deeds.
Ravishing without remorse the daughters of our race.
If we could capture wretches such as he, it might end our civil war.

- Zul'Aman, already mentioned. The *in-universe* reason to go there is, basically, pretty shinies (aka phat lewt). Guess for a Lara Croftesque treasure hunter that's as good a reason as any, but for noble defenders of the Horde and Alliance? ...Riiight.
- Halls of Stone. To my knowledge, there are no quests leading there, and apart from the Tribunal of Ages encouter (for which you get the quest *inside* the instance itself), the bosses just seem really random. Who is Krystallus again? Why are we killing the Maiden of Grief? And the final boss is... a random iron vrykul? Oh right.
- Trial of the Crusader. "Welcome, champions. Today, the Argent Crusade will unleash these beasts on you. Failure to avoid getting stomped by them will result in an 'unsatisfactory' mark on your official testing record, followed by death. Good luck."

Thomas Hickey on Studio House —
When commencing a new project, the first site visit is an essential moment in the process — and presents an opportunity to design our projects with the initial visceral experience in mind.
The site informs our design process completely. During the conceptualization of how the project is going to look, feel and breathe, we take into account a site's pre-existing conditions, the surrounding area and what the actual location has to offer.
With our project Studio House, the site itself was just off a dusty country road in the outer banks of Virginia. Standing before it, it was obvious that we should orient the house with the broad elevation commanding the site and overlooking the bay.
The site itself greatly informed how we would go about controlling light intake, views, wind and sound. Inspired by the steady procession from the street to the top of the dune, intuitively we felt the residence should reveal itself gradually, slowly opening up to the bay as you traveled through it.
It just goes to show that an approach to design isn't necessarily clinical; rather, it's a very sensory experience.

Representative Steve Daines is giving his official thumbs up to twenty-one Montanans hoping to get into one of our nation's prestigious military academies.
In the middle of her holiday shopping, Amanda Kotila, a home schooled girl from Whitefish, now a freshman studying physics at MSU, found out she is one of the twenty-one students finishing up high school and just starting college nominated by Representative Daines for acceptance into a military academy.
"It's kind of a strange thing, not much military service in my family, but I've just been so inspired by military people and I didn't think I could do it, personally," admitted Kotila.
Of course, this is just one step in a process that takes more than a year to get through. Essays, three letters of recommendation, a fitness test, a resume, and transcript all go into application. The nomination from a congressman is kind of the last piece of the puzzle. Representative Daines cut the finalist pool nearly in half with his list of nominations. Flathead county tied with Yellowstone county for the most nominations, both with four.
"These students truly make Montana proud and they need to be commended for their very hard work. It's inspiring," said Daines.
Kotila applied to the Merchant Marine Academy, West Point, and the Naval Academy, hoping to one day be in the air force.
"If any of them will take me, I'll be so swept off my feet," said Kotila.
Since she was home schooled, Kotila's parents had a part in putting together her application both times, since this is her second try.
"They only have two children. Their oldest one, they feel like they have to make it right and it is a little worrying going into the military at this time," said Kotila.
If she is lucky, Kotila says she will hear back from the academies in April. Right after our interview ended, I got a call from Kotila with some more exciting news: she just got nominated by Senator Jon Tester for the Air Force Academy.
Lake and Gallatin counties tied for the second most students nominated by Representative Daines, both with two getting the honor.
Later that same day, Kotila got her third nomination, from Senator Max Baucus for the Military Academy at West Point.

The eagle, it is believed, works as a messenger for the Creator. It is tasked with the job of carrying the prayers of humans from the earth world to the spirit world where they believed the creator resides. Seeing an eagle during a prayer ceremony was taken as a sign of having one's prayers accepted. If the Native Americans wanted the Creator to take immediate notice of them they would hold up an eagle feather in their hands. These prayers are often displayed in eagle Jewelry and eagle artifacts
Each part of the eagle has different symbolic meanings. For example the wings of the eagle are taken as a symbol of the balance between males and females. It shows the interdependency of one upon the other and how both must work in cooperation to achieve the desired results. These eagle wings are often depicted on mandellas and artifacts and eagle necklaces and eagle bracelets
The Native Americans attached great importance to eagle feathers. They were a prominent part in many religious practices and ceremonies. The feathers were held in such high esteem that in case someone dropped a feather on the ground it would be given a thorough cleaning. The feather had to be guarded until the cleaning ceremony was conducted.
The residents of the plains would make use of the wing bones of the eagles to make whistles. These whistles were blown during dance ceremonies. For the Pueblo tribe the golden eagle was regarded as being the war eagle. Hence they would keep its molted feathers. It was also a common feature to make use of eagle feathers on headdresses and weapons.

Chard Dumplings in Chive Broth
From EatingWell: March/April 2011
Sweet, tender leaves of early-season chard, caramelized onion and a salty bit of capicola fill these bite-size dumplings with flavor. Beet greens or kale would also work beautifully—just adjust the cooking time accordingly and add a little extra liquid if using tougher greens. This recipe makes 72 dumplings for 8 servings of soup. To save time and make the recipe for 4 servings, halve the filling amount and roll half as many dumplings.
Makes: 8 servings, about 9 dumplings & 1 cup broth each

- 1 bunch white chard (also called green chard), leaves and stems separated
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 2-ounce slice capicola or pancetta, finely chopped (about 1/2 cup)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper (optional)
- 1/3 cup dry white wine
- 1/4 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 36 wonton wrappers (see Note)
- 6 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup thinly sliced fresh chives or scallion greens
- 8 teaspoons finely shredded Parmesan cheese (optional)
- To prepare dumping filling: Finely chop enough chard leaves to measure 3 cups; set aside. Finely chop enough chard stems to measure 1/4 cup. (Reserve any remaining leaves and/or stems for another use.)
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and the chard stems and cook, stirring often, until beginning to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add water and cook until the liquid has evaporated, 2 to 4 minutes. Stir in capicola (or pancetta) and cook until the mixture is golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes more. Stir in garlic, lemon zest and crushed red pepper (if using) and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in wine and the reserved chard leaves and cook, stirring, until the liquid has evaporated and the mixture is somewhat dry, about 5 minutes more. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and let cool for 5 minutes. Stir in ricotta and salt.
- To prepare dumplings: You'll need a clean, dry work surface, a baking sheet lightly dusted with flour and a small bowl of water. Cut the wonton wrappers in half on the diagonal. Cover them with a clean kitchen towel to prevent them from drying out. Lay 6 wrapper halves on the work surface. Spoon about 1/2 teaspoon of the filling in the middle of each. Moisten a fingertip and run it along the edges of the wrapper. Fold in half to contain the filling, forming a smaller triangle. Press the edges to seal. Pinch the 2 farthest ends together, making a tortellini-like shape. Place the dumpling on the prepared baking sheet; cover with a damp paper towel until ready to cook. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- To cook & serve dumplings: Bring broth and water to a lively simmer in a Dutch oven or soup pot. Stir the liquid while carefully adding half the dumplings. Cook, stirring once or twice, for 4 minutes. Remove the dumplings with a slotted spoon and divide among 4 soup bowls. Repeat with the remaining dumplings, dividing among 4 more soup bowls as they are done. Ladle about 1 cup of the broth into each bowl. Serve immediately, sprinkled with chives (or scallion greens) and Parmesan, if using.
Tips & Notes
- Make Ahead Tip: Prepare dumplings through Step 3, arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet (or in two layers separated by parchment paper in a smaller container), lightly dust with flour and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for up to 1 day or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Note: Look for wonton wrappers in the refrigerated case in the produce department—usually near the tofu. For this recipe, we use square wonton wrappers, which are sometimes labeled "round wrappers" even though they are not round. Unused wrappers can be stored, tightly wrapped in plastic, in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months. Defrost in the refrigerator.

Living on the West coast of BC - these articles really make me very concerned for my children and future generations. I truly believe they are not reporting about this because we don't know what to do - We've never had to deal with this magnitude of radiation leaking into our oceans like this. We, humans on planet earth, do not know what to do, how to fix this, and what levels of radiation is considered safe before the food chain is irreversibly effected or what humans can handle before it begins to damage our health. They have an idea from Hiroshima, and Chernobyl that indicates that things are not looking so good and our Governments are not going to speak without great caution to avoid the wrath of their populations demanding answers they don't have. We and the next generation are all going to be guinea pigs in this global catastrophe.
I'd like to find more articles written by people who think they might have a solution to stopping the leaking that is still going on, is it even possible to recover the missing cores that have just sunk into the abyss, how to prevent another earthquake in one of the most active regions in the world so it doesn't destroy us even more and how to save our oceans and the human populations that are in the pathway from being harmed from radiation.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"This is a beautiful card -- has classic sophistication with the modern simple chic flair. We had to request designer review to fit our wording, and they did a great job. We also chose to use some capitalization. We are so pleased with the quality of the card stock - nice thick, firm and beautiful color."
"The colors were much brighter in person, which is exactly what I wanted. The proof from the professional was great, they got back to me in a timely manner. I used it for a summer wedding even though it is called Winter's Elegance and it worked great! I'm very happy with this product and the customer service I received."
"I helped my daughter put her invitations together. There was a large choice of fonts and the color options were great. We laid out the information and the company team promptly put it together with some helpful improvements for us to review. There were a couple of things we asked to have changed which they accommodated quickly for our final review. The end product was perfect and everyone is very happy with them. And the overall delivery time was even faster than expected. Couldn't ask for a better experience or product. Everything top notch."
"I absolutely loved this invitation. The paper was quality, and I added a photo on the back that also came out very well. Love the design. They did come in in the wrong color, but it was my fault. The wonderful customer service lady made my experience awesome, and I got them in the right color"
"The background red and the ivory font was perfectly matched with my fall wedding theme. My fiance and I were very impressed with the paper quality and size. My package arrived within a week of ordering. SO HAPPY!"

Potter leaned over to Sanderson and asked: "Who is Harold and Kumar?"
"I still haven't answered him," said Sanderson, about the comic duo who get into marijuana-fueled adventures in their movies.

In Colbert's most recent segments, he has offered college students a kit to create their own super PACs for $99. They quickly sold out. The kit included a "Trevor-may-I button," with pre-recorded jokes from Colbert's attorney, and an instruction manual, written by Potter and Sanderson, that would walk students through the legal process necessary to create a political group that can collect unlimited contributions as long as they don't work in tandem with a candidate.
The manual is dead serious, but Colbert's team mocked it up to look like an IKEA instruction manual, complete with an Allen wrench.
Jowers has also done some work for the Colbert super PAC and went with his protégé to a taping of the show in New York.
"They have been amazing partners to put up with attorneys ruining their best jokes at times," Jowers said.
Potter, Jowers and Sanderson credit the show with raising awareness of campaign finance issues, particularly in light of the Supreme Court's Citizens United ruling in 2010 that led to the growth in super PACs, which have spent millions on attack ads in the presidential race and even in some state races, including in Utah.
"In my opinion, his commentary has really highlighted the fact that Citizens United was based on a really faulty factual assumption," said Sanderson. "By that, I mean [the assumption] that super PACs and entities like them are legitimately independent from candidates. It is not the case. It is basically the campaign committee that has not been expressly authorized by the candidate."
"The Colbert Report" not only has the help of two Utahns in Jowers and Sanderson, but the program also is expected to take on a Hinckley intern this summer.
And don't forget the canned ham with glasses, which Colbert has named "Ham Rove," a play on famed GOP strategist Karl Rove.
The real Rove attended the University of Utah, though he never graduated, so it's quite possible that Ham Rove may have some Utah ties that Colbert has not yet revealed.

➸ The Traditional Lenten Fast
8:18pm August 21, 2012
➸ Eamon Duffy on Fasting | First Things
The theological and practical shift represented by this abandonment of an ancient part of the tradition was not merely a matter of theological emphasis, and more, too, than a question of whether…
8:25pm August 19, 2012
"Fasting is the champion of every virtue, the beginning of the struggle, the crown of the abstinent, the beauty of virginity and sanctity, the resplendence of chastity, the commencement of the path of Christianity, the mother of prayer, the wellspring of sobriety and prudence, the teacher of stillness, and the precursor of all good works. Just as the enjoyment of light is coupled with healthy eyes, so desire for prayer accompanies fasting that is practiced with discernment."— St. Isaac the Syrian
Simply Orthodox ☦: Fasting is the champion of every virtue
8:23pm August 19, 2012
"As bodily food fattens the body, so fasting strengthens the soul; imparting it an easy flight, it makes it able to ascend on high, to contemplate lofty things and to put the heavenly higher than the pleasant and pleasurable things of life."— Holy Hierarch Basil the Great
Simply Orthodox ☦: Fasting strengthens the soul
12:33am May 24, 2012
"I shall speak first about control of the stomach, the opposite to gluttony, and about how to fast and what and how much to eat. I shall say nothing on my own account, but only what I have received from the Holy Fathers. They have not given us only a single rule for fasting or a single standard and measure for eating, because not everyone has the same strength; age, illness or delicacy of body create differences. But they have given us all a single goal: to avoid over-eating and the filling of our bellies… A clear rule for self-control handed down by the Fathers is this: stop eating while still hungry and do not continue until you are satisfied."— St. John Cassian
Simply Orthodox ☦: A clear rule for self-control

While legislators continue to discuss how to bring an oasis to the food deserts that plague the state, health food advocates are doing what they can to make residents in these areas of Wake County healthier.
The USDA defines food deserts as urban neighborhoods and rural towns without good access to fresh, healthy and affordable food. Health food advocates said that food deserts are a big problem and that people in those areas have a better chance at finding fast food than they do a grocery story with fruits and vegetables.
Monday afternoon the House committee on food desert zones met to examine these gaps in part after a national chain closed two grocery stores in southeast Raleigh.
The panel met four times, hearing about the challenges of accessing healthful foods at reasonable prices in these zones, as well as possible solutions to encourage fresh fruit and vegetable sales at convenience stores and inclusion on school cafeteria trays.
The panel's report to other legislators, who return for their annual work session next month, says more than 1.5 million people in North Carolina live in at least 349 food deserts in 80 counties, citing federal data.
Anita Woodley and those with the organization hope the legislature will make recommendations to make it easier for Grocer's on Wheels and others, like co-ops to make healthy food readily available to areas that have been labeled food deserts. Grocers on Wheels focuses on seniors and people with low income, delivering fresh fruits, vegetables and meats for low prices.
Workers with the non-profit hope to expand their service based on the legislature's decision.
"We're creating this oasis within the food desert," Woodley explained. "Our operation can't alleviate the entire food desert because it's huge; but what we can do is create those pockets where people are secure in their food and they are saying, 'Wow this is feasible.'"
Woodley said her crew will pay close attention to what the legislator recommends so they can grow accordingly.

I echo Randi's comments. I had FFS with Dr. Di Maggio in March 2012 and achieved everything I'd hoped for. I can only pass as a woman now. I found his demeanor very accommodating. I never felt that he was talking down to me. In fact, I'm in Argentina as I write this. I'm back for a revision to my sinus. I had underlying sinus issues before FFS that became magnified after FFS. He is taking care of it. He has switched from using Florida Hospital to Adventist Hospital. Since I wasn't awake during the procedure, I can't really comment on the adequacy of the infrastructure.
Not only is he an excellent FFS surgeon, he is also world renowned for his trauma work. The day before my revision he was piecing back together someone's face that was involved in an auto accident. He has done thousands (not just hundreds) of facial reconstructions. He strives to bring out each FFS patient's feminine beauty and does NOT take the cookie-cutter approach. I'm very please and would highly recommend him.
Christine. This is very disturbing. And if true bothersome.
I can tell you from personal experience, and I have a detailed medical background, that from my own surgery in the hospital and the surgical suite that this was not true. I am not saying that this wasn't true at one time, and I can not speak to your email from Dr. Di Maggio, but only to my personal in-hospital experience. I do know that the Doctor has upgraded his hospital options and is always searching for new and better options. My personal experience is that the operating was not dangerous, and in fact unlike other FFS surgeons there are almost no reports of problems in the surgical suite. Let everyone be aware that this is elective surgery and surgery is inherently dangerous. However my decision to go to Buenos Aires was partly to avoid the problems that were reported by patients with FFS surgeons in Boston, Chicago and San Francisco. And I found no issues from over 200 Di Maggio patients, and I myself had a great and safe experience.
On a personal note, and from my heart...I had FFS with Dr. Di Maggio in Buenos Aires 3 1/2 years ago. A wonderful life changing experience. I have been encouraging him to attend SCC for 3 years now and he finally said yes!!! If you have a genuine interest in FFS please take time to schedule time with him. His results are outstanding and pricing amazing. Received this email last night. posting for the group to see. thank you.
Dr. Marcelo Di Maggio, famous plastic & aesthetic craniofacial surgeon, expert in facial feminization surgery from Buenos Aires is coming to the U.S. for the SCC, Southern Comfort Conference in Atlanta, September 4 - 8, 2013 for the very first time.
Dr. Di Maggio will be providing free no-obligation consultations and surgical estimates in his SCC Atlanta hotel suite. Additionally, any patient prospect who sees Dr. Di Maggio in Atlanta for a SCC consultation will be eligible for special promotional pricing even lower than the great value already provided in Argentina.
If you are not registered for SCC, Dr. Di Maggio encourages you do do so. Registered attendees will be able to spend time with him and his lovely wife (neurosurgeon & craniofacial surgeon, part of his team) at meal functions and you will be able to attend his educational presentation on Saturday morning September 7, 2013 where you can learn about the differences between the male and female face and the variety of different techniques that can be employed to provide a more feminine appearance. You will also have the opportunity to see more fabulous results the Doctor and his team have helped deliver.
Consultation slots are going fast. If you are interested in meeting with the Doctor in Atlanta please reply as soon as possible so we may schedule you accordingly. This is a rare opportunity for a face-to-face consultation with Dr. Di Maggio without having to fly to Buenos Aires. We would strongly encourage you take advantage of this chance to meet with him if you have a genuine interest in FFS or any other feminization surgeries.
Also coming soon, Dr. Di Maggio's new website. We will contact you with that information when the website is ready for action.
Thank you for your interest in Dr. Di Maggio. We look forward to hearing from you and assisting you in your feminine journey.
"Reflecting your inner beauty for all the world to see."
To contact the U.S. office and/or to schedule a SCC/Atlanta consultation please email: firstname.lastname@example.com
I am one year post opt and after passing a year in Pakistan I decided to go for FFS as the standard of acceptability in Pakistan are much more higher than any other country and the face is the main gender marker of what else is under the clothes. Any how I searched for FFS and have some suggestions to share. I shall have my FFS tomarrow with Dr. Charan in Bangkok. Go to google to know about him. He is among the top of Maxiofacial surgeons in Thailand but do not have any website as he do not like to have beautiful websites giving false impression of before and after results which can be the expert camera not the doctor. I have some thing to share.
1- Do not just believe the photo results given on the websites as the photo shop and good camera techniques can do a lot to beautify and faminize the actual FFS results.
2- Send your photo for evaluation to as many doctors as you can and see what are the common areas indicated by majority of doctors and go for FFS for that area if the budget is tight and which is in more cases is out of budget. Most doctors are like sales men and they may point out also those areas which are not necessarily required so go for the common FFS indicators by majority doctors.
3- Faminization cannot make a person beautiful or being faminized does not mean beautiful. There can be very beautiful men and there can be ugly women. Faminization surgery makes us look like a female by changin the bong countrour. Beauty is symmetry, flawless and smooth skin which a man can also have.
I think you would like what I said. If any question do ask.

The Persistence Of Quality
Trousers with a crease were considered plebeian; the crease proved that the garment had lain upon a shelf, and hence was "ready-made"; these betraying trousers were called "hand-me-downs," in allusion to the shelf.
— Booth Tarkington
Most speakers of contemporary vernacular American English assume that the term "hand-me-down" refers to clothing "handed down" from "generation to generation." While that is not really the origin of the phrase, today's usage makes for an admirably concise suggestion of the idea that there can be clothing worth transferring from one generation to another, clothing that has a persistence of quality and a continuing utility.
A common practice on Savile Row had been to cut only the lower two out of four sleeve buttons. The top two would left closed, making future alterations easier either for the original owner—or eventually, perhaps, for the owner's son, nephew, or grandson.
Even plutocrat playboys know a good thing when they see it. Lapo Elkann's early style fame came from retargeting clothes from his grandfather Gianni Agnelli's closet to his own shoulders. Yes, Lapo can afford new clothes. That he sometimes chooses the old over the new is a nod to this idea of persistence of quality.
What do I mean by the "quality?" Certainly, care and craftsmanship using honest materials are essential to quality. Clothes do not last without those attributes. Beyond that, however, the aesthetic and style of tailored clothing also must conspire together to lend clothes a degree of longevity. These characteristics might seem intangible. You should, nonetheless, know it or have learned it when you see it.
It seems likely that men's clothing today moves less from one familial generation to another than was true in the past. Nevertheless, like many habits of modernity, old practices do not necessarily disappear.
They become new ones.
Here is Kevin in a bespoke tweed three piece suit of coat, vest, and trousers made for him by W. W. Chan & Sons:
A few years pass, and now we have Peter in the same suit:
Do they not both look great?
Peter, of course, is neither Kevin's son nor nephew. Not really.
But, then, perhaps in some abstract new sense, Peter is.
I suppose that most men who "inherit" clothing this way, thanks to the fluidity of direct person-to-person commerce that technology now enables, have as their first condition a lower tolerance—or ability—to spend than the original owners.
As Peter demonstrates, however, there is no reason why your eye should not be focused still on what is well and handsomely made.

It is true that some spells could be nerfed, but that doesn't mean that these ones will be - though I can say for sure that they will at least see some changes before the end.
More importantly, I don't think you are really giving much thought in to how the mechanics might play out. Lets start with Mana Adept. We don't know exactly how much it is going to boost your damage. It might be entirely possible that at around 50% you might be doing comperable dps to other dps trees and at 100% you are doing double the damage of every one else. This will allow you to do one hell of a lot of burst right up front.
Time warp might indeed be "something else to keep you from casting a nuke" but it will take you what? 1 gcd every ~10 min? OH MY GOD!! MY ROTATION IS RUINED! You are also forgetting the speed increase it will grant you for what ever perposes you have in mind.
Finaly we get to wall of fog. It is true that it wont stop a rogue in his tracks but it is clearly stated that that is NOT the perpose of the spell to begin with. For instance, lets say you positioned the wall just right so that you cut off the enterances to the flag room, making it impossible to avoid if some one wanted said flag. Lets say you see a large mounted group charging your direction... bam! Wall of fog and get out of there. There are loads of ways of using this new mechanic. You are just fearful of something new.

The title of this taped, 60-minute special was not mere hyperbole. Red Skelton offers some of his best verbal and visual comedy routines before a distinguished British audience, including the Royal Family. Highlights include Skelton's uproarious "Guzzler's Gin" and his heartbreaking "Old Man Watching a Parade." Produced by Riff Markowitz and taped at Albert Hall, Red Skelton: A Royal Command Peformance was first seen in America courtesy of the HBO cable service on April 22, 1984.
