• Mavericks-Hornets series scouting report | Series page
Playing for their playoff lives, the Mavericks were finally able to find a way to contain Chris Paul by inserting Jason Terry into the starting lineup for Game 3. This gave them more quickness at Paul's point of attack. Terry was able to negate Paul's initial burst, and the Mavericks gave softer help -- meaning they moved toward Paul, but did not run aggressively at him. This kept back the help defenders away from Paul, keeping space between them. This encouraged Paul to shoot more jump shots -- which he is reluctant to do as the first option.
We have described Paul as a "reluctant" scorer, which goes to the mind-set of his "pass first" mentality and his desire, as a great team player, to get his teammates involved in the offense first. As we have seen in this series, Paul can score as well as any point guard in the NBA, and can carry his team when necessary by pouring in points on his own.
But, this is not his preference, and he will only do this if his team is struggling, as he did in the second half of Game 1, or if there are no assists available, as happened in Game 3.
With the Mavericks playing a softer form of help defense when Paul dribbled into an area where normally he draws and dishes for the assist, Paul found only more open space to shoot. This made him more tentative so shot the ball with some uncertainty -- he went 4-of-18 from the field.
This also kept the Maverick defenders in better position to get to the Hornets 3-point shooters Peja Stojakovic and Morris Peterson -- whose early shots were a key to the Hornets blowout win in Game 2. Not only was the penetration and pitch for the three not available, neither was the drive and lob for the Tyson Chandler dunk. These are both plays which energize the Hornets on the offensive end.
Look for the Hornets to anticipate a similar defensive scheme in Game 4. They will widen their spacing by moving players further from the lane, and flatten out the floor by moving offensive players closer to the baseline. This will allow Paul more room to work and leave Terry on an island to defend Paul with help much further away.
Another key defensive change for Dallas was taking Dirk Nowitzki off of David West -- West feasted on Nowitzki in the post in the first two games of this series. Coach Avery Johnson assigned center Erick Dampier to guard West, and Dampier played him soft -- giving West the jump shot and discouraging the drive or post up, with his size. West became more one dimensional and less aggressive, settling for jump shots and shooting 6-of-20 from the field.
In Game 4, look for New Orleans to create some screening action for West to allow him to catch with Dampier in motion. This gives West an advantage on the drive with his quickness.
This strategy leaves Nowitzki on Chandler. Look for Chandler to post up, but also look for high pick-and-rolls with Paul to force Nowitzki into this action. Even if he does not engage Paul on the hedge, Paul still will have more room to attack in the open floor if Nowitzki stays soft and Terry has to chase.
In Game 4, look for the Mavericks to continue their dribble penetration attack, which was very effective in Game 3 in getting layups and free throws. The Hornets did not defend the dribble well, and look for them to take fewer chances and play more containment, position defense.
The midrange belonged to Nowitzki in Game 3, and when he gets his jumper and fadeaway game going, he ignites the crowd and energizes his team. West made surprisingly little effort to deny Nowitzki the ball -- allowing him to catch easily on the wing and set up in his favorite area of the floor.
The Mavericks either isolated Nowitzki on one side of the floor and he held West off and called for the ball, or they started him in the corner and set a down screen for him -- giving him the option of making a flex-cut into the lane or and l-cut to the wing. Expect the Hornets to deny this action and make Nowitzki work harder to catch the ball.
The Hornets also surprisingly did not double-team Nowitzki often, and left West exposed to play Nowitzki one-on-one. West cannot guard him by himself, so look for the Hornets to double-team more often in Game 4 -- either running at him right away to get the ball out of his hands, or trapping him after he starts his move, to force turnovers and bad shots.
Transition defense will also be a point of emphasis for coach Byron Scott in the Hornets' film session, as they will see themselves beaten down the floor by Dallas players at every position.
The Hornets got their first taste of life on the road in the playoffs, but they are a confident team and more than capable of winning Game 4. The Mavericks have their confidence back, and they will play Game 4 with the same "must win" desperation as they did in their Game 3 win.
PREDICTION: Mavericks win Game 4

Search Engine Optimization – The Most Wanted Tool in Onli
Search Engine Optimization – The Most Wanted Tool in Onli
SEO or Search Engine Optimization is a bundle of strategies that is exclusively used by the online business people to make their business successful. Only new comers may not be familiar with this powerful strategy because already 95% of the online business people are using it. Through search engine optimization techniques, a site can draw more visitors, achieve higher ranking and promote its product easily to make a big profit. Search engine optimization techniques come under two heads, namely onpage optimization and offpage optimization. Since the SEO process is lengthy and little tricky to follow, some webmasters prefer to take help from the SEO firms. The set of SEO strategies include some important tags, links, content designing, etc. So, if you are new entry into this online business, then hiring some experts to do these strategies will be the ideal choice.
Even though the SEO strategies are lengthy, the base of the SEO strategy is on the keyword you choose. If you are a regular surfer in the net, you could have used keywords in the search engine box to search information/product/service. And when you click the search button after providing the keyword you will see that hundreds of webpages will be displayed in the results page. All the websites are not visited by the users and the website that appears in the first page mostly get the chance to do business.
The job of the webmaster or SEO expert is to analyze the keywords and pickup the exact keyword that can give you business. To make this keyword research process simple, google offers excellent keyword research kit for the customers use. The keyword inclusion in various places decides your site ranking in the search engine results page. A website that produces quality and informative content will drive more traffic. Also the keyword inclusion strategy is used in meta tags, header tags, alt tags, anchor text tags etc. So, a website that collectively follows all the SEO strategies will be at the top of the SERP.
As I said above, there are also some effective offpage optimization techniques that are essential to lift your site ranking. Backlinking strategy is the one that is used by the webmasters to create good traffic to their site. First, you should choose ways to build quality links. Organic links can be built through forum sites, social bookmarking sites, social networking sites, forums, article directories, blogs etc. You can also create healthy links by participating in various forum discussions.
Blog commenting is also a link building strategy that is used by most of the webmasters. If you are looking for some advanced ways to create backlinks, then I recommend you to create press releases and video marketing. Large business people also use the e-mail marketing strategy to build organic links. Thus, link building strategy takes a crucial role in driving traffic to your site.
All businesses in spite of the size, should compulsorily use the search engine optimization techniques to achieve best rank in search engines. Search engine optimization is a stepping stone for the webmasters to widen their online business.

Online marketing is using the web to advertise and promote your business. It works for both online companies, along with those with physical places, and naturally for those companies who have the full plan and offer both techniques of shopping. There are tons of methods to promote your business online, and by taking advantage of those techniques you are swiftly able to get the word out about what you are offering. Getting a big following of customers is a lot easier, and ending up being the brand that you always imagined is far more most likely to take place.
You will likewise wish to be sure to inspect evaluations, BBB ranking and references. A business registered with the BBB is a company you can depend on to get a good experience with. Testimonials on the web are likewise an useful way to obtain understanding into a SEO business. Lastly, request references. The business should easily have the ability to offer three to four references of previous clients. These clients must be contacted and asked questions of their fulfillment with the Search Engine Optimization business. If a company can not or will not offer you with references, think carefully before picking them.
When employing a web optimization business, demand a test batch to learn what you can get out of that business. You must ask questions before the business starts work, so you know precisely what is being offered to you and what you can expect with completion results. Likewise ask about on-going support. Search Engine Optimization is not something that you total one time and it is over. Search Engine Optimization requires on-going support and maintenance in order to achieve high rankings and the traffic that you look for. If your preliminary order with this business did not turn out as anticipated, you might wish to demand modifications, or if the work is poor quality, to find another business to work with.
As soon as you have actually discovered a SEO business that you are comfortable working with, be sure to keep the lines of communication open. Request for condition updates frequently, examine all work that they submit to you carefully, and offer clear, truthful feedback whenever the content you get does not satisfy your needs. The quality of your Search Engine Optimization content is a main determiner of just how much traffic your internet site gets and can make or break your business. If the content you have actually gotten from your Search Engine Optimization business does not lead to a boost in traffic, put in the time necessary to re-evaluate and create a new technique if needed. Time invested improving your internet site now, if you are spending your efforts in the best location, must lead to more cash later.

SEO Champaign Illinois Search Engine Optimization Companies :: SimplySell
SEO Champaign Illinois Search Engine Optimization Companies :: SimplySell
Champaign IL SEO Company SimplySell (217) 807-4600 is the brainchild of marketing and sales improvement expert and industry veteran Brian Tucker. They offer proven solutions to help Champaign area business owners quickly solve their two biggest problems: finding more customers and selling more products and services.
SimplySell takes a very painless approach to help clients understand what search engine optimization (SEO) and internet marketing really are and how they can make it go to work for them on autopilot to immediately start increasing profits.
Tucker works very intimately with new Champaign Illinois SEO clients and explains how in the past, all a business needed was a phone book or radio advertising to bring buyers in the door. Nowadays, everyone knows Internet search engines like Google or Yahoo have replaced the phone book and social media like Facebook, YouTube and Twitter technology have taken over. He says that most local businesses are looking online to supplement and even replace traditional advertising methods like newspapers and television because these types of advertising methods don't work like they used to. In fact, Tucker says that most business owners who spend money on this type of traditional advertising are throwing money down the drain because most people haven't picked up a phone book in 5 years and most everyone searches for local businesses on their computers and cell phone. Many business who hire him wind up spending the same amount or a little less than they currently spend on advertising but get far more new business from the Internet. Businesses that don't currently spend money on advertising see a huge jump in new customers.
"We have a lot of business owners who call us because they know they need to get their business online with a website. Then we have people who call us because they have an awful looking website with no visitors and it's not making them any money. There are a lot of people who claim to be web designers but that's just half the work. If yu don't have anyone visiting your site and buying from you, basically you have the equivalent of a billboard located in the middle of a desert. We also have many business owners who call and say they want to get their business more exposure in other nearby cities like Springfield, Bloomington, Champaign and Peoria. Finally, we have clients who have tried using a search engine optimization (SEO) company that doesn't understand the Champaign Illinois SEO market. We're downstate Illinois focused and partner with our Champaign IL area clients and educate them on what works for their business. Our solutions aren't built solely on busy websites, flashy advertising or techno buzzwords. We take a very simple approach that focuses only on proven marketing and advertising strategies that start bringing in more customers and generating more money."
Tucker's SimplySell approach is founded on the time-proven basics of marketing and advertising. He first figures out what clients (the sellers) want to say about their products and services to a prospective client. From there, he identifies the grass-roots features and benefits that make people want to buy and next identifies where those potential targeted buyers are located. They then figure out where those prospective buyers are at online and get the sellers marketing messages in front of the buyers so clients start seeing money back in their pockets right away.
"Time is money and money is always a concern so they focus on immediate results that start paying clients back within the first few weeks." Tucker emphasizes. "Our SEO clients want to see something that works almost overnight while at the same time future-proofing their business."
Although Tucker has spent the majority of his career helping large multi-billion dollar corporate giants like Dell, CSC, British Petroleum, United Airlines and Brocade Communications, he also understands that every business, regardless of its size, fundamentally relies on sales to grow. And while no two businesses are alike, when it comes to selling and growing, most all of the fundamental problems preventing sales and growth are the same. "We understand one thing very well." Says Tucker If our clients fail to sell, then we've failed too. Our #1 priority is to help businesses win more sales so they can ultimately make more money. It's a win-win."
SimplySell offer a free no-obligation SEO consultation.

R(k) new=R(k) old+T(k,0)-T(k,20)
This invention deals with digital speech coding and more particularly with coding schemes providing a low coding delay while using block coding techniques enabling lowering the coding bit-rate.
Low-bit-rate speech coding schemes have been proposed wherein the flow of speech signal samples, originally coded at a relatively high bit-rate, is split into consecutive blocks of samples, each block being then re-coded at a lower bit rate using so called Vector Quantizing (VQ) techniques. VQ techniques include for instance so called Pulse-Excited (RPE or MPE) as well as Code Excited Coding. More efficient coding has also been achieved by combining Vector Quantizing with Linear Predictive Coding (LPC) wherein bandwidth compression is performed over the original signal prior to performing the VQ operations. To that end, the speech signal is first filtered through a vocal tract modeling filter. Said filter (Short Term-Predictive (STP) filter) is designed to be a time invariant, all-pole recursive digital filter, over a short time segment (typically 10 to 30 ms, corresponding to one or several blocks of samples). This supposes first an LPC analysis over said short time segment to derive the filter coefficients, i.e. prediction coefficients, characterizing the vocal tract transfer function. Then the time-variant character of speech is handled by a succession of such filters with different parameters, i.e. by dynamically varying the filter coefficients.
Filter coefficients derivation operation obviously mean processing delay adding to the otherwise coding delay due to further processing including VQ operations. This leads to total delay in the order of 25 to 80 ms depending on the type of signal processor being used.
Such a delay is not compatible with the specifications of speech coders to be used in the public switched network without echo cancellation. More particularly, no known technique fits to a low bit rate (e.g. 16 kbps) which would provide a low delay, while still keeping high coding speech quality, with an acceptable coder complexity.
One object of this invention is to provide a low-delay low-bit rate speech coder with minimal coder complexity.
More particularly, the present invention addresses a low-delay vector quantizing speech coder wherein the original signal prior to being vector quantized is first decorrelated into a residual (excitation) signal using a short-term adaptive predictive filter the coefficients of which are dynamically derived from a reconstructed residual (excitation) signal.
Further objects, characteristics and advantages of the present invention will be explained in more details in the following, with reference to the enclosed drawings which represent a preferred embodiment thereof.
FIG. 1 is a prior art coder.
FIG. 2 is a block diagram of an improved coder as provided by this invention.
FIG. 3 shows another implementation of the invention.
FIG. 4 is a representation of an adaptive method to be used with the coder of FIG. 3.
FIG. 5 is a decoder to be used in conjunction with the coder of FIG. 3.
FIG. 1 represents a block diagram of an Adaptive Vector-Quantizing/Long-Term-Predictive (VQ/LTP) coder as disclosed in copending European Application 0280827. Briefly stated one may note that once the original speech signal s(n) sampled and coded at a high bit rate into a device (not shown) has been decorrelated, through an adaptive Short-Term-Predictive filter the coefficients of which are sequentially derived from blocks of s(n) signal samples, into a residual signal r(n), said r(n) is not directly submitted to Vector Quantizing into the Pulse-Excited (P.E.) coder.
The r(n) signal is first converted into an error residual signal e(n). The e(n) signal is then Vector Quantized, to improve the VQ bits allocations. The signal e(n) is derived from r(n) by subtracting therefrom a predicted residual signal x(n) synthesized using a Long-Term-Predictive (LTP) loop.
The LTP loop includes an LTP filter the coefficients (b and M) of which are dynamically derived in a device (12).
In summary, one may note that once the original signal s(n) has been decorrelated into r(n), said r(n) is then coded at a lower rate into a device (23).
For the purpose of this invention, one should note that the Short-Term Filter (10) coefficients (ki's or ai's) are derived and adapted over 20 ms long blocks of s(n) samples. The subsequent coding process is therefore delayed accordingly.
As already mentioned, the resulting overall delay may be incompatible with the limits of coding specifications for some applications.
Represented in FIG. 2 is an improved coder wherein coding bits are saved by not including b, M and ki's into the coded signal, and furthermore by shortening the coding delay involved in the ki's computation. To that end, the s(n) flow of samples is first segmented and buffered (in device 25) into 1 ms long blocks (8 samples/block). The segmented s(n) signal is then decorrelated into the STP filter (10). The STP transfer function of which, in the z domain, is made to be: ##EQU1## Wherein g is a weighting factor. For instance, g=0.8. In the preferred embodiment an 8th order filter has been used, the ai (i=0, . . . ,8) coefficients of which are derived in a Short-Term-Predictive (STP) adapting device (27) to be described later on.
The STP filter (10) converts each eight samples long block of s(n) signal into r(n), with: ##EQU2## with: n=1, . . . ,8
i=1, . . . ,8
The STP filter (10) is adapted every ms, i.e. at each new block of 8 samples r'(n) using a feedback block technique. To that end, the reconstructed excitation (or residual) signal r'(n) is first filtered through a weighted vocal tract filter or inverse filter (29), the transfer function of which is: ##EQU3## providing also noise shaping through use of a weighting coefficient g=0.8. Said inverse filter (29) thus provides a reconstructed speech signal s'(n).
The signal s'(n) is given by: ##EQU4##
The resulting set of 8 samples s'(n), (n=1, . . . 8) is then analyzed in an STP Adapt device (27) as follows.
A 160 samples long block (20 ms) is generated by concatenating the 8 currently derived s'(n) samples (n=1, . . . 8) with the previously reconstructed samples s'(n-i) for i=0, . . . ,151, stored into a delay line (not shown) within device (27).
Then, an 8th order autocorrelation analysis is carried out over the 20 ms long block by computing: ##EQU5## for k=0, . . . ,8
The expression (5) may be evaluated recursively from one block to the next, as follows:
Let's denote R1(k); (k=0, . . . ,8) the set of autocorrelation coefficients computed through equation (5) over a 1 ms block. Let's denote R2(k); (k=0, . . . ,8) the next 1 ms block. One can write: ##EQU6##
Therefore valuable processing load may be saved by applying the following algorithm for iterative determination of R(k)'s:
Consider an array T(k,N); k=0, . . . ,8; N=0, . . . ,20 to store partial correlation products.
For each new set of samples s'(n); n=1, . . . ,8 compute and store: ##EQU7## for k=k=0, . . . ,8
From the previously computed auto-correlation R(k), compute:
R(k)=R(k)+T(k,0)-T(k,20) (10)
for k=0, . . . ,8
Shift array
T(k,N)=T(k,N-1) (11)
for N=20, . . . ,1 and k=0, . . . ,8
This algorithm just requires storing the set of autocorrelation coefficients R(k) computed using last 1 ms block; and only computing partial autocorrelation coefficients to be stored into a 189 (i.e. 9�21) positions array T. The shifting within array T can be implemented through modulo addressing.
Conversion of autocorrelation R(k) coefficients into a(i) filter coefficients may be achieved through use of Leroux-Guegen algorithm (which is a fixed point version of the Levinson algorithm). For further details one may refer to J. Leroux, C. Gueguen: "A fixed point computation of partial correlation coefficients", IEEE Transaction ASSP, pp.257-259, June 1977. The a(i) coefficients are used to tune both filters (10) and (29).
One may also note that in the improved coder of FIG. 2, the LTP loop includes a smoothing filter (15), the transfer function of which is, SF(z)=0.91+0.17 z-1 -0.08 z-2 which derives a smoothed reconstructed residual signal r"(n) from the reconstructed residual signal r'(n). Said r"(n) is then used to derive the LTP parameters (b, M) every millisecond (ms) into a device (31). This is achieved by computing: ##EQU8##
Then M is selected as being the k parameter for the largest R(k) in absolute value. And ##EQU9## Finally, the LTP filter is also fed with r"(n) rather than r'(n).
As represented in FIG. 3, further improvement to the above described coding scheme may be achieved by using an Adaptive-Code Excited Linear Predictive Coder (A-CELP) for performing the Vector-Quantizing operations, as described in Copending Application (88480060.8).
Assuming first that codewords are stored into a table, CELP coding means selecting a codebook index k (address of codeword best matching the e(n) sequence being considered) and a gain factor G. The gain G is quantized with five bits (in a device Q). The codebook table is made adaptive. To that end, a 264 samples long codebook is made to include a fixed portion (128 samples) and an adaptive portion (136 samples), as represented in FIG. 4.
The stored codebook samples are denoted CB(i); (i=0, . . . 263). The sequence CB(i) is pre-normalized to a predefined constant C, i.e.: ##EQU10## for all k=0, . . . ,255.
Then, given a set of eight e(n) samples, codebook search is performed by:
computing ##EQU11## for m=0, . . . ,255
selecting k such that: ##EQU12## computing the gain factor G according to:
G=R(k)/C (15)
An improvement in the quantization of the gain G can be achieved by selecting the best sequence of the code-book according to a modified criterion replacing relation (14) by: ##EQU13## where R'(k) represents the maximum selected at the previous block of samples.
Relation (14a) simply expresses that the gain G of the vector quantizer is constrained to variations in a ratio of 1 to 4 from one block to the following. This allows savings of at least one bit in the quantization of this gain, while preserving the same quality of coding.
The corresponding gain G needs being quantized into G' in a device Q. Therefore, to limit any quantizing noise effect on any subsequently decoded speech signal, a dequantizing operation (Q') is performed over G' prior to computing e'(n).
e'(n)=G�CB(n+k-1) for n=1, . . . ,8. (16)
The codebook is adapted according to the following relations:
CB(i)=CB(i+8) for i=127, . . . 255 (17)
CB(255+i)=NORM(CB(n+k-1)) for i=1, . . . ,8 (18)
where NORM denotes the normalization operator: ##EQU14## with SQRT denoting the square root function.
The LTP parameters (b,M) are computed every millisecond (ms) in LTP Adapt (31), i.e. at each new block of eight samples r'(n). For that purpose r'(n) is first filtered into a smoothing filter (15) as already disclosed with reference to FIG. 2. The filter (15) provides a smoothed reconstructed residual signal r"(n). Then, the autocorrelation function R(n) of the smoothed reconstructed excitation signal is computed through: ##EQU15## is evaluated for k=20, . . . ,100
In practice, computing load may be saved by evaluating this autocorrelation function recursively from one block to the next as already recommended for equation (5).
The optimum delay M is determined as the maximum absolute value of this function:
R(M)=max(|R(k)|); k=20, . . . ,100). (21)
The corresponding gain b is derived from: ##EQU16##
Represented in FIG. 5 is a block diagram of the decoder for synthesizing the speech signal back from k and G' data. Initially, both coder and decoder codebook are identically loaded and they are subsequently adapted the same way. Therefore k is now used to address the codebook and fetch a codeword therefrom. By multiplying said codeword with a dequantized gain factor G one gets a reconstructed e'(n). Adding e'(n) to a reconstructed residual signal x(n), provided by an LTP filter (53), leads to r'(n), which, once filtered into a smoothing filter SF (58) with the transfer function SF(Z)=0.91+ 0.17.Z-1 -0.08.Z-2 gives a signal r"(n). The signal r'(n), filtered into an inverse STP filter (54) leads to a synthesized speech signal s'(n).
The STP filter equation in the z-domain is: ##EQU17##
It is to be noticed that neither the STP filter a(i) coefficients, nor the LTP parameters (b,M) have been inserted into the coded speech signal.
These data need therefore be computed in the decoder. These functions are achieved by STP adapter (55) and LTP adapter (57), both similar to adaptors (27) and (31) respectively.

text: Bacterin International Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player. One potential earnings short-squeeze candidate in the medical equipment and supplies sector is Bacterin International ( BONE), which is set to report results on Thursday after the market close. This company develops, manufactures and markets biologics products to domestic and international markets through Bacterin's biologics division. Wall Street analysts, on average, expect Bacterin International to report revenue of $9.50 million on a loss of 3 cents per share. If you're looking for a small-cap stock that's trading within range of triggering a big breakout post-earnings, then make sure to check out shares of Bacterin International. During the last six months, this stock has been on fire rising over 70%. The current short interest as a percentage of the float for Bacterin International sits at 4.2%. That means that out of the 22.55 million shares in the tradable float, 992,694 shares are sold short by the bears. This isn't a huge short interest, but the float is small so any bullish earnings news could easily spark a big short-squeeze for BONE. >>10 Small-Cap Stocks Poised to Rise From a technical perspective, BONE is currently trading above both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, which is bullish. This stock has been uptrending strong for the past number of months, rising from $1.73 to its recent high of $3.54 a share. During that uptrend, shares of BONE have consistently made higher lows and higher highs, which is bullish price action. Now the stock is trading within range of triggering a near-term breakout trade. If you're bullish on BONE, I would wait until after its report and look for long-biased trades if the stock breaks out above some near-term overhead resistance at $3.54 a share with high-volume. Look for volume on that move that's near or well above its three-month average volume of 259,102 shares. If we get that action, then look for BONE to make a run at its November high of $3.93 a share, or possibly towards $4.50 to $4.90 a share, which are past overhead resistance levels. I would avoid long-biased trades in BONE if this stock fails to break out over $3.65 a share with volume post-earnings. A failure to trigger that breakout could set this stock up to re-test its 50-day moving average of $2.87 or possibly fall lower if the bears slam this stock post-earnings.

Ali Larter in James Jeans Twiggy in Java Coated
Ali Larter was spotted on the set of her new movie You're Not You in Los Angeles, California. She wore a pair of the James Jeans Twiggy Leggings in Java Coated with a pair of the Rag & Bone Harrow boots.
The Java wash has to be my favorite that James has come out with this season. It has a washed out, almost volcanic brown to it, that I am really fond of. They are much lighter compared to these on Ali, but I think that may have to do with the coating. You can click here to purchase these jeans from the James Jeans website for $170.
New Styles by Avelon
Here is a closer look at some of the pieces from the Avelon Spring 2013 collection. The brand has quickly grabbed my eye ever since I saw the first piece by them. I can also say that after seeing these styles, they are still grasping it.
These styles feature leather paneled detailing. The first pair, a trouser, features a leather waistband, while the last two feature leather detailing on the legs. The first of the two jeans has woven leather under the front pockets and the second piece has a panel going down the front. What are your thoughts on these styles?

Custom jeans seem to be making their rounds at concerts lately, by J Brand in particular. First it was Rihanna in her custom shorts, then Madonna in the pair named in her honor and now it is the legend himself, Mick Jagger, wearing a custom pair by the iconic brand.
For the Rolling Stones 50th Anniversary Concerts at the O2 Arena in London, Mick wore a pair of black custom slim fitted jeans. Mick must have the same issue as I do finding the perfect slim jeans…well from the men's section. I just go for the J Brand 910. I wonder if this is what Mick did before these?

LOOK BOOK: Siwy Spring 2013
The new Siwy look book for their Spring 2013 collection is just as fun and free as the ones before. You can see the models jumping around and just living life to the fullest as much as possible.
This season the styles went more classic. There were tones of medium toned and dark blues through out. That wasn't all though as the collection also included prints, distressing and some colors like yellow and blush tones. You can see the full look book as well as my favorite piece, the Madeline in Celestial, below.

Skip to comments.Cribs for needy families stolen in Woodstock (unintentional irony alert)
Posted on 11/30/2012 7:31:43 AM PST by from occupied ga
When Monti Price arrived for work at the Hope Center in Woodstock Wednesday morning, she was struck by what she did not see.
I noticed a big empty space in our parking lot where our trailer used to be, she said.
Inside that trailer, five brand new cribs intended for needy mothers like Angela, who earned them by attending parenting classes. Angela arrived at the ministry for pregnant women and new mothers on Thursday afternoon, hoping to pick up the crib for her three-month old son, David.
Just to find out this, she said, shaking her head in sad surprise, Im really disappointed.
Without the crib, she said, her young son will do what he has done since birth.
David will sleep with me for now, in the same bed. And its not even safe for the baby, she added, saying there is just no way she can afford a crib on her own.
Hope Center executives say, since word of the theft started spreading, the community has rushed in with offers of support. There have been enough donations to cover the purchase of new cribs, but not enough yet to buy a new trailer. The trailer, which was also donated, had been used to deliver the cribs and baby seats, also given to those who earn them by taking parenting classes and who might not otherwise be able to afford them.
Woodstock Police continue their investigation into the theft. And Angela had a message for the thief:
You ought to be ashamed of yourself, she admonished, and ask for forgiveness from God.
From my viewpoint there isn't any difference between "Angela" and then thieves except they weren't too lazy to steal on their own, and "Angela" was too lazy to even do that - doubtless relying on the government to supply her EBT card loaded with stolen dollars form the taxpayers and charity to supply her lifestyle. I wonder if she has a flat screen TV. I also wonder where be the baby daddy.
Did you ever wonder whether Angela is only 15, still a legally innocent child herself, and has been spawned by irresponsible parents and also abandoned by the baby daddy and his family? Have a heart. At least she did complete the parenting classes and we aren't as likely to see her yelling at her crying baby and hitting it in the grocery aisles.
That she attended a ministry puts her ahead of many that just wallow in thier error.
Perhaps a more forgiving attitude to fellow sinners is in order.
So what? Does that mean she's going to give up her (assumed) EBT card?
Perhaps a more forgiving attitude to fellow sinners is in order
You can forgive all you want. But irresponsible a$$holes like her are what is ruining this country. Want to guess how she voted? Going out on a lib here, but I'm going to say 0bama.
I doubt that 15 year old Angela voted at all.
I don't approve of her actions, but what exactly do you want? You want to stone her to death? Or just rage about her?
I'm glad I live in a different Woodstock (not that something similar might mot happen here).
No. And I still don't. ANd even if she were, SO WHAT? There are lots of people whose parents aren't the greatest that don't continue the cycle. Unless she was the victim of rape, she spread 'em willingly and knowing what the result was likely to be. Birth control is very widely available, and if you can't afford kids without burdening other people with the cost of your pleasure you shouldn't have 'em.
I expected some sanctimonious posts like yours from those who lack the ability to think critically.
I'm glad I live in a different Woodstock (not that something similar might not happen here).
in the 70's, 50% of illegitimate babies were put up for adoption. Adopted children do much better in life than even children born to two parent homes.
Now less than 1% of illegitimate children are put up for adoption.
It's an imperfect world. People are always going to be doing things you don't like.
What is your solution to that?
I have been volunteering at Shared Pregnancy here in Lansing for years, and apart from food baskets at Christmas and Easter the clients get absolutely no freebies. They earn points by attending parenting classes, which cover everything from health and nutrition to early learning, or they earn points by volunteering at the center. The points are accumulated and then cashed in when the client wants/needs something. A bag of clothing is usually 1-2 points--something like a crib is 10. Figure that it takes an hour to earn a point--how much is 10 hours of work at minimum wage?
Enough to buy a crib.
Oh, stuff it. If there was ever someone who thinks critically, it's yours truly. You are kicking the victim. The article says private persons donated to this cause. The villain remains 40 years of failed Democrat progressive politics.
I understand where you're coming from. There are so many of these "ministries" where they believe they're helping these people. Yet, I'm not sure they're really correcting attitudes (which they should be about) or just giving handouts (which is what they're doing). It's simply another method for redistributing the wealth. People feel sorry and give. Others take. Just because Angela attended a parenting class doesn't mean that she has changed her attitude or her desire to "better" her life situation.
another free yard sale on craigs list?
I totally agree because today's out of wedlock children as well as children from divorced homes suffer Parental Alienation, which is the worst child abuse of all! All due to a complicit "family" court system.
Conservatives often get accused of not having a heart. But here is a private center where people are actually trying to save the life of a child and help the moms -- as if there have NEVER been single moms in the history of the world -- and we have a screed about taxes at the top of the thread.
I agree; the entire Great-Society-easy-sex-and-welfare mentality has put this country in the toilet, and we have LBJ to thank, among many other Democrats. But the original post screaming about a single mother who at least made an effort? Not a solution.
I sense a hard core leftist approach - attempting to marginalize your opponent by calling them "angry" I also sense dishonesty in your calling "Angela" 15 years old. NOWHERE IN THE ARTICLE IS HER AGE STATED. I don't know her age and, more to the point, neither do you. You're entitled to your own opinions, but you're NOT entitled to your own facts
What do YOU want? DO you want more welfare recipients? Additional lifestyle support for the irresponsible? Additional rewards for stupid behavior? Is this what you want?
As to what I want is for people to have bear consequences for their actions. ONLY THEN will there be fewer irresponsible choices among the indolent.
What's yours?
At least she didn't abort the child! Maybe adoption would be a better option but at least with the support of the organization she didn't abort, as I'm fairly sure she was pressured to do.
There are several Christian pregnancy centers here in South Jersey that do much the same as described in the article: clients receive training to be better parents and DONATED items are "earned" for their diligence in participating. Such support enables a child to be born, rather than aborted.
I'd ask you to remember that from a human viewpoint, Jesus was an unplanned pregnancy also.
The HOPE Center does not accept government donations and is totally supported by churches, businesses and individuals
Earn While You Learn (EWYL) - A one-on-one educational program between client and mentor that complements our Childbirth Preparation classes. Clients earn Mommy Money and Daddy Dollars to spend in the Baby & More Thrift Store.
As opposed to earning dollars by working at a job? Do they have to pass a test or can they just sit there?
What do you mean something for nothing?? It says right there in the article she took the required parenting classes that the charity offers. She made a deal with that charity and she EARNED that crib.
Sometimes conservatives can be so judgmental and it just comes off as mean. We're not helping our cause any. THis poor kid has probably never had a break in her life, and if she grew up in the welfare system, she may never even have seen anybody she loves actually earn something. And when she goes and tries to make her life a little better for her child and all she gets is scorn.
Old and Tired's wife
How do you suggest that people be made to be (more) responsible for their actions?
Do you really believe that people won't continue to make bad choices?
The world remains imperfect. The poor will always be with us.
I'm sure there are going to be a bunch of cribs on Craigs list in the next week or so.
Talk about unintentional irony....
REAL EASY! Re-enstate the work requirement for government assistance for a starter. Make it MORE DIFFICULT, not less difficult to get on the welfare roles. When you do this you force people to be more fiscally responsible. Without fail every food stamper and now EBT card user I've had the misfortune to get behind in the grocery store makes two piles. first the groceries, and then the beer/wine etc. and (usually) dog food. They pay for the groceries, get cash and then use the cash to pay for the beer and dog food. And let's not mention the grocery choices. These usually fallinto two categories: The expensive prepackaged entrees that require minimal work to prepare, or alternatively expensive cuts of meat.
Do you really believe that people won't continue to make bad choices?
Of course not, but if there are more consequences, then they will make FEWER bad choices.
Do YOU really believe that finacially rewarding irresponsible behavior will lead to less irresponsible behavior?
You need to get busy with a dictionary.
Mary was a homeless teenage mother.
But the article was about a voluntary charity. Not government.
It's not something for nothing. It's a crib in exchange for doing something, in this case . She entered into an agreement with the Hope Center (a contract of sorts), where she agreed to take a class and, in exchange the Hope Center agreed to provide her with a crib. The Hope Center owned the cribs, and if they wanted to give them to people in exchange for the class, that's their decision to make. You may view taking the class as "doing nothing," but that's not your call.
From my viewpoint there isn't any difference between "Angela" and then thieves
If you think there's no difference, you're missing the operative word, theives. Again, you may not view it as a fair deal, but the Hope Center willingly agreed to give these people cribs in exchange for taking a class. By virtue of that agreement, "Angela" and the others had a right to take the cribs (just like you or I have a right to take something that is offered to us, say as a gift). The Hope Center did NOT agree to give the cribs to the people who stole them, and so those people had no right to take them.
OK....for the 1st one MISTAKE....let her have the crib. But as a condition, she gets the Neil Boortz treatment.....Stand her on her head and fill her with norplant
sanctimonious - adjective /ˌsæŋk.tɪˈməʊ.ni.əs//-ˈmoʊ-/ adj - acting as if morally better than others
Your entire initial post conveyed a sense of moral superiority over others (specifically, "Angela"). Then, when you got called out on your BS, you started calling others sanctimonious.
Chances are she is an unwed mother as opposed to a married woman or a widow, so for argument's sake I will assume that is the case.
Assuming that is true, she should be rebuked and corrected for her sexual immorality, but should also be treated with Christian kindness, if she takes responsibility for her sin and its consequences.
She didn't seem to have a particularly obnoxious attitude of entitlement, like so many people do. She simply said she was disappointed and said that the thieves should be ashamed of themselves and repent before God. I don't see anything wrong with either of those statements.
I think where our society in general, and most Christian churches, including "conservative, Bible believing" ones are going wrong is treating the sexual immorality that causes these out of wedlock births as being "OK". It is not OK at all, but a very, serious sin.
I once read a book by a very, good, guest preacher at a church I used to attend and he wrote "God is in the business of forgiving sin, not excusing it."
IMHO, one of the fundamental problems with our churches and our nation is that we misrepresent God as an excuser of sins of the unrepentant, rather than a forgiver of sins, of the truly repentant.
This goes for so many other sins as well, not just sexual immorality. Lying and unbiblical divorces come to mind.
AND that's good. However, I'm not talking about the source, but the recipient. Speaking generally here, not specifically about "Angela", relying on charity or the government, either one or both, rather than being able to support yourself is almost always the result of multiple bad life choices - drop out of school followed by out of wedlock children spend what money you have on entertainment rather than necessities, etc.
One poster stated correctly "The poor you will always have with you." The problem is that in the last four years the number of people on the dole (and presumable relying on private charity as well) has reached unprecedented numbers. We're defining poverty up and adding those simply unwilling to work to the mix. Why? Because it's entirely too easy to get on. there are 47,000,000 people on EBT support in the USA today. Most of them are capable of working, as was shown by the huge drop in welfare recipient numbers when the republicans forced the Clinton administration to add a work requirement to welfare.
Look at the last election - the takers outvoted the makers. Do you think that anyone who was receiving means tested assistance voted Republican? This country is going the wrong way.
Not at all. You're seeing this through the filter of what you want to see not what is.
You bet.
I was raised in foster care, my bio mother was a hooker, and my bio dad was a disgraced cop in jail for attempted murder....one almost victim was me (and I still have the scars to prove it).
My foster parents were good people but sorry parents (hence the reason God said NO to reproduction).
I graduated high school with honors. Went to nursing school. Got married pre-sexual activity. Raised two babies post wedding. Worked my way up the corporate food chain. Attended college. Held a public office. And when the two kids were in college, adopted two more from Asia. And the last house we bought, we paid cash.
I received no sympathy, no handouts, and I offered no excuses.
My circumstanes at times were dire, homeless always flirted around the edges.
I took nothing that I didn't earn.
If I can do this, so can others.
Agreed, I may have come across a bit harsh. But those relying on charity are really expecting something for nothing. Thieves expect something for nothing so in reality although there is a distinction, both feel entitled to something that they have not earned in the traditional sense. The widespread sense of entitlement in the population is one of the major problems bringing this country to its knees.
Riiiight. When you called her a "parasite," a "burden on society," said she should be "ashamed of [herself]" and compared her (unfavorably) to a thief, you were not conveying moral superiority. Gotcha.
away in a manger no crib for his bed...how ironic that we engage in debate over stolen cribs during the christmas season
I think what others are trying to say is that your posts seem to lack compassion for our fellow man
if you are christian you are required to show compassion for your fellow man
all of them..those who make mistakes and even those whom you may think are robbing you blind with the help of the government
You asked a general question. I answered it. Actually making private charity more descriminating would probably help too. I remember reading an article abou charity in the early 20th century, and according to the article those doleing out the goodies then were much more likely to turn someone down because they had a drinking problem, wouldn't try to work etc. than do charities today. I think the article was published somewhere in the fee.org site.
She is (a parasite), probably always will be (a burden on society), and yes, she should (be ashamed of herself).
And yes, she is (the same as a thief).
Truth is not always pretty.
It is, however, still truth.
I will say that I have no DIRECT evidence that she is in the last mentioned class, I simply INFERRED it from the fact that she was counting on charity to provide her with some supplies. However, most people who are getting private charity go first to the government and second to the private charity. Just betting the odds here.
"Sometimes conservatives can be so judgmental and it just comes off as mean."
I agree. Disapproving isn't the same thing as judging.
Sadly a few of the posts here come off not only as judgmental but also mean, uninformed, and more than a little hypocritical.
This is a totally private charity and I thought the purpose of a charity was to help the less fortunate.
Would aborting the baby have been preferred?
Mary was NOT homeless, and, she was engaged to be married when she conceived. It's not like she was a child bride. She was age appropriate for the time.
And, she accepted her assignment with grace. She could have refused.
Are you comparing Mary to these low life single girls that sleep around with whoever, get knocked up and keep the kid for the 1st of the month check?
I'm somewht selective in my compassion. I try to reserve it for those who are in bad straits through no fault fo their own. Like those who are stricken by an expensive disease. Those who are injured in accidents that were caused by someone else, and of course I have compassion for the hardworking americans who are being robbed to buy votes for the Democratic party.
those who make mistakes
A mistake as an accidently oversight like thinking you have a $50 bill in your wallet and it turns out you have a $20. A mistake is adding up a column of numbers wrong. A mistake is getting the wrong size (or maybe the right size) dress for your wife's birthday. Having a child that you cannot afford is a life style choice. You have to choose a baby daddy. You have to choose to have sex with said baby daddy. You have to choose to NOT practice birth control during the aforementioned sex. These are conscious deliberate choices, not accidental oversights
how you describe this young girl is exactly what mary's village thought of her..
remember they even encouraged Joseph break off the engagement so they could stone her
and yes as she entered bethlehem she was indeed homeless as she prepared to give birth to Christ
Thank you, Mom4Me. I thought that 'Mary was a homeless single teenager' meme had been laughed off the island, but apparently, it's still lurking around.

AbstractCorrosion damage costs the Navy time and money by requiring critical components to be monitored for fatigue on a scheduled basis rather than by need. When quantitative analysis of corrosion data is obtained, lifetime models and corresponding depot level re-work can be planned appropriately while maintaining fleet readiness. White light interferometry (WLI) uses white light interference patterns to determine surface features with vertical nanometer resolution. WLI has been shown to provide pitting and surface depth erosion of corroded structures. Luna Innovations Incorporated proposes to develop a conceptual design for a portable WLI that is capable of measuring the inside diameter of shafts and other complex geometries of mission critical structural components via three approaches 1) improve the situation awareness of the optical head to improve the accuracy of portable image acquisition, 2) utilize software programming to analyze a region of interest to reduce sampling time and file size and 3) a novel optic design to measure fillets and other high slope regions. It is anticipated that the conceptual prototype will be built and demonstrate a design that is simple to employ with improved resolution.
