A regular at the world's finest fashion and luxury events, Letizia interprets the trends she sees and incorporates them into her high-quality pieces. Reflecting the elegance, beauty, and refinement of the city of Verona, the Veronese Collection is becoming the jewelry of choice for many women.
Information provided by Letizia La Mela.
The Luxury of 18K Gold without the Price Tag
Artistry of Veronese Collection®
The Veronese Collection combines expert craftsmanship with the classic appeal of 18K gold and sterling silver to create high-quality jewelry at an incredible value. 18K gold is the Italian standard and contains a higher concentration of pure gold. This is what gives it the rich, warm, buttery yellow glow you have come to love.
The layer of 18K gold over sterling silver is extremely thick, outlasting traditional gold plating techniques. The entire collection is nickel-free, so even those with nickel sensitivity can wear these luxurious designs.
The Inspiration
The enchanting city of Verona is the muse for our collection. One of the most elegant cities in Italy, Verona epitomizes upscale refinement with its high-end shops, cultured, aristocratic women, and opulent monuments. Verona is also the setting of one of the world's greatest love stories, Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. This sense of enduring romance and tradition is reflected in each piece of Veronese Collection Jewelry.
A Piece of History
The goldsmith's legacy is deeply rooted in the lands of Verona. Tradition, craftsmanship, and a sense of style are passed on to each generation from father to son. In small workshops, goldsmiths gather to passionately handcraft the jewelry with meticulous detail. Each piece of the collection is imprinted with the pride and serenity of the Verona countryside. Every time you wear Veronese Collection Jewelry, you can almost feel the peaceful bliss of the babbling streams or the tranquil beauty of the expansive vineyards.
The Veronese Collection is more than just jewelry — it's a part of Italy.
Gold-clad jewelry offers the rich, lustrous look and feel of gold for a fraction of the cost. Through a special process, 14K or 18K gold (depending on the brand or collection) is plated onto another metal, usually sterling silver. Plated to ample thickness, gold-clad designs are radiant, long-lasting, and affordable.

By Todd Franko (Contact)
Published February 2, 2009I spend too many hours on the road for youth hockey. But doing so keeps me out of trouble — and housework. Sunday, I was in Johnstown, Pa. for my 8-year-old son's game.
This topic is double edged. I personally would like to see professional hockey players who are getting some kind of compensation to play hockey. The article didn't mention on terms of level of hockey that if the kids are lucky, they then move on to D1 college hockey from juniors most of the time, so, why are we skipping minor league and D1 sanctioned hockey and supporting these kids who are not at those levels yet, we are contributing money to them getting to a higher level of hockey that we won't be able to see. Why not get the highest level we can for our money for Ytown? The skill, speed, and strength of men playing hockey as compared to 16-20 year old boys is uncomparable. Although, sometimes the junior players can be exciting, ultimately... when I work hard all week and pay to see hockey in Youngstown, I want a professional team in a professional rink. Try this on for size... when I buy a jersey for my kid, I don't want a jersey of some kid who attends a local high school part-time while he plays here for the Phantoms for a year then goes to D1 club hockey or D3 college hockey or can't do either of those and just becomes a regular person like me and you. We need professionals!
I like your style, Dude.
YSU does have a hockey team.
They are pretty good, currently 4th in the CHMA division.
YSU does have a hockey team:
They are pretty good. 4th in the CHMA division
YSU does have a team:
sorry about the multiple posts.
YSU's team plays at the Ice Zone in Boardman.
They are a fairly new team. I think they started about 3 years ago. YSU's marketing doesn't do a whole lot to get the word out to students. (It doesn't seem like it) There are usually a few students at the games along with some of the player's parents and families. The fan base just isn't there yet for YSU to play downtown but YSU as a university needs to do a better job at marketing like they do for football and bball etc.
YSU plays tonight after the Phantom's game (both at the Ice Zone)
Lets see YSU has students by the thousands, Youngstown has a Downtown Hockey Arena, Toss in regular Hockey fans, Cheaper beer, Cheaper tickets.
Even I could come up with a few nights of entertainment.
There was nothing better than a late night game at the old stadium in Cleveland watching a loosing team on dollar beer night.
Fan base might be a problem, this is why you do something to attract people. This is why the Centre is supposed to have promotion people, Radio, TV, Print. I mean if nothing else in this day and age why can't we get behind a sports team and just raise some heck in the process.

"Through Independence Day, HuffPost Impact is running a series of stories called "Breaking the Roles," highlighting the servicemen and women of our armed forces who don't typically see the media spotlight, and the remarkable work of the USO, who are tireless in their efforts to support all who defend our country."
We're thrilled to announce this six-part series, running online at the Huffington Post's in partnership with Causecast, that tells untold stories of those who support our men and women in uniform! Check back each day to see the latest interview.
Today kicks off with a hilarious interview of Jeffrey Ross, by Jonathan Daniel Harris. Ross is a longtime supporter of the USO and the military. His directorial debut, "Patriot Act: A Jeffrey Ross Home Movie" captured his own life changing experience traveling on a USO tour and entertaining American soldiers stationed around Iraq during the early days of the war. It screened at many top festivals and even won Best Picture at the Montreal Comedy Festival. Click here to read our latest blog post on Jeffrey Ross and be sure to follow him on Twitter.

much the same as Hangy tits, flapjacks are large breasts (seemingly large, anyhow) that fall past the bellybutton when freed from their restraints. Usually veiny, with nipples pointing southward.

Who loves not women, wine and song, Remains a fool his whole life long.
Martin Luther (1483 - 1546)
Contributed by: Zaady
Whatever your heart clings to and confides in, that is really your God.
All who call on God in true faith, earnestly from the heart, will certainly be heard, and will receive what they have asked and desired.
A mighty fortress is our God, A bulwark never failing; Our helper He, amid the flood Of mortal ills prevailing. For still our ancient foe Doth seek to work us woe; His craft and pow'r are great, And, armed with cruel hate, On earth is not his equal. Did we in our own strength confide, Our striving would be losing, Were not the right Man on our side, The Man of God's own choosing. Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is He; Lord Sabaoth His name, From age to age the same, And He must win the battle. And though this world, with devils filled, Should threaten to undo us, We will not fear, for God hath willed His truth to triumph through us. The prince of darkness grim - We tremble not for him; His rage we can endure, For lo! his doom is sure; One little word shall fell him. That word above all earthly pow'rs - No thanks to them - abideth; The Spirit and the gifts are ours Through Him Who with us sideth. Let goods and kindred go, This mortal life also; The body they may kill; God's truth abideth still, His kingdom is for ever. Amen.
Source: A MIGHTY FORTRESS IS OUR GOD, by M.Luther, 1529,Translated-Frederick H. Hedge, 1853
All which happens through the whole world happens through hope. No husbandman would sow a grain of corn if he did not hope it would spring up and bring forth the ear; how much more we are helped on by hope in the eternal life.
I have held many things in my hands, and I have lost them all; but whatever I have placed in God's hands, that I still possess.
Music is the art of the prophets, the only art that can calm the agitations of the soul; it is one of the most magnificent and delightful presents God has given us.
Peace is more important than all justice; and was not made for the sake of justice, but justice for the sake of peace.
Source: On Marriage, 1530
Who waits until circumstances completely favor his undertaking will never accomplish anything.
To do so no more is the truest repentance.

Google Extends Its Lead
Google's share of the U.S. search market grew slightly in September (vs August) from 66.4% to 66.7% according to comscore's most recent report. Their gains appear to have come at Yahoo's expense, which lost 0.6%. Ask also gained 0.3%.
These gains continue to extent Google's lead over Bing/Yahoo (Bing supplies the search results for Yahoo's organic search). At one point, Bing/Yahoo had over 30% of the market share, but now they have dropped down to only 28.7%.
What do you think?
- Can anyone unseat Google as the biggest search engine in the U.S.?

Multitude: War and Democracy in the Age of Empireby Michael Hardt, Antonio Negri
View All Available Formats & Editions
In their international bestseller Empire, Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri presented a grand unified vision of a world in which the old forms of imperialism are no longer effective. But what of Empire in an age of "American empire"? Has fear become our permanent condition and democracy an impossible dream? Such pessimism is profoundly mistaken, the authors argue. Empire, by interconnecting more areas of life, is actually creating the possibility for a new kind of democracy, allowing different groups to form a multitude, with the power to forge a democratic alternative to the present world order.Exhilarating in its optimism and depth of insight, Multitude consolidates Hardt and Negri's stature as two of the most important political philosophers at work in the world today.
Editorial Reviews
"Impressive… a rare and exciting work of synthesis." —Booklist, starred review

Read an Excerpt
The possibility of democracy on a global scale is emerging today for the very first time. This book is about that possibility. It is about what we call the project of the multitude. The project of the multitude not only expresses the desire for a world of equality and freedom, not only demands an open and inclusive democratic global society, but also provides the means for achieving it. That is how our book will end, but it cannot begin there.
The possibility of democracy is obscured and threatened today by the seemingly permanent state of conflict across the world. Our book must begin with this state of war. Democracy, it is true, remained an incomplete project throughout the modern era in all its national and local forms, and certainly the processes of globalization in recent decades have added new challenges, but the primary obstacle to democracy today is the global state of war. In our era of armed globalization, in fact, the modern dream of democracy may seem to have been definitively lost. War has always been incompatible with democracy. Traditionally, democracy has been suspended during wartime and power confided temporarily in a strong central authority to confront the crisis. When today the state of war is not only global in scale but also long-lasting, with no end in sight, then the suspension of democracy also becomes indefinite or even permanent. Democracy thus appears to be entirely irretrievable, buried deep beneath the weapons and security regimes of our global state of war.
Never has democracy been more necessary than today, in this situation of global conflict. No other path will provide a way out of the fear, insecurity, and domination that permeate our world at war; no other path will lead us to a peaceful life in common. Democracy, it would seem, has never been more impossible or more necessary.
This book is the sequel to our book Empire, which focused on the new, global form of sovereignty. That book attempted to interpret the tendency of global political order in the course of its formation; that is, to recognize how, from a variety of contemporary processes, a new form of global order is emerging that we call empire. Our point of departure was the recognition that contemporary global order can no longer be understood adequately in terms of imperialism as it was practiced by the modern powers, based primarily on the sovereignty of the nation-state extended over foreign territory. Instead, a "network power," a new form of sovereignty, is emerging today that includes as its primary elements, or nodes, the dominant nation-states along with supranational institutions, major capitalist corporations, and other powers. This network power we claim is "imperial," not "imperialist." Not all the powers in empire's network, of course, are equal. On the contrary, some nation-states have enormous power and some almost none at all, and the same is true for the various other corporations and institutions that make up the network—but despite inequalities they must cooperate together to create and maintain the current global order along with all of its internal divisions and hierarchies.
Our notion of empire thus cuts diagonally across the debates that pose unilateralism and multilateralism or pro-Americanism and anti-Americanism as the only global political alternatives. On the one hand, we argued that no nation-state, not even the most powerful one, not even the United States, can "go it alone" and maintain global order without collaborating with the other major powers in the network of empire. On the other hand, we claimed that the contemporary global order is not characterized and cannot be sustained by an equal participation of all, or even the set of elite nation-states, as in the model of multilateral control under the authority of the United Nations. Rather, severe divisions and hierarchies, along regional, national, and local lines, define our current global order. Our claim is not simply that unilateralism and multilateralism as they have been presented are not desirable but that they are not possible given our present conditions and that attempts to pursue them will not succeed in maintaining the current global order. When we say that empire is a tendency we mean that it is the only form of power that will succeed in maintaining the current global order in a lasting way. One might thus respond to the U.S. unilateralist global projects with the ironic injunction adapted from the Marquis de Sade: "Américains, encore un effort si vous voulez être imperials!" ("Americans, try again if you want to be imperialists.")
We also claimed that empire rules over a global order that is not only fractured by internal divisions and hierarchies but also plagued by perpetual war. The state of war is inevitable in empire and war functions as an instrument of rule. Today's pax imperia, like that in the times of ancient Rome, is a false pretense of peace that really presides over a state of constant war. All of that analysis of empire and global order, however, was part of the previous book and there is no need for us to repeat it here.
This book will focus on the multitude, the living alternative that grows within empire. You might say, simplifying a great deal, that there are two faces to globalization. On one face, empire spreads globally its network of hierarchies and divisions that maintain order through new mechanisms of control and constant conflict. Globalization, however, is also the creation of new circuits of cooperation and collaboration that stretch across nations and continents and allow an unlimited number of encounters. This second face of globalization is not a matter of everyone in the world becoming the same, but rather it provides the possibility that, while remaining different, we discover the common that allows us to communicate and act together. The multitude too might thus be conceived as a network: an open and expansive network in which all differences can be expressed freely and equally, a network that provides the means of encounter so that we can work and live in common.

Does anyone have a good Ontario Rental Agreement Form (word or PDF) that I can modify and use? I can find good examples of just about everything else required on the net, but an actual rental/less agreement that includes clauses referencing the 2006 tenancy act. I would prefer not to have to purchase a "Landlord" package for this one form.
Any help?

I believe the most recent changes to the LTA were in 2007.
No matter.
The OREA forms (400) are the ones that us Realtors use. I'd use the first example above as the second one has Brokerage information filled in on it.
Bear in mind that any clause you (Tenant or Landlord) put into any lease that is a violation of the LTA is automatically void. Doesn't matter if it's in writing - it's null and void. This means that you both should have a passing familiarity with the Law.
The Landlord Tenant Board website is a great place to look for information.

sorry for resurrecting this thread
Question: Is anyone allowed to use these OREA forms? Like the standard rental lease form.
Or do you have to be a member or OREA?Reply With Quote LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked locke16 for this post.

Anyone can use it. The problem is it's a "McLease". Totally generic and is filled with flaws that won't help you if you get into any landlord/tenant trouble.

The OREA form is drafted for use by REALTORS representing renters and who would attach schedules or insert clauses into the allowable fields to properly identify what is to be included in a lease. I would not recommend you use this form unless you know what should and should not be inserted in same. This link is to an 8 year old form, try to find the 2012 update. Nothing stops you from creating your own from same while leaving out any brokerage references.
The form will only create problems for those who don't know what they're doing. Other than that you might also want to find the rental application form and use that in conjunction with this.

Most real estate agents are clueless when it comes to rental properties and the law. I've seen many cases where owners have relied on real estate agents and got in really bad situations...and the real estate agent fled when asked to be held accountable.
The OREA lease is pathetic.
Think about it. You are dealing with tenants who will have power over your $300,000 or $400,000 or $500,000 or more property and you use a generic lease created by non-landlords??!!
Especially in Ontario, once you hand over the key to new tenants you lease is your only protection.
Learn the ropes (or learn from others who know the ropes) and landlords PROTECT YOURSELF. Get a lease that covers all the bases and prepares you for any potential situations that will jeopardize your huge investment in a rental property.Reply With Quote LOG IN TO THANK 3 people have thanked Beeg for this post.

I understand that you want to promote your services/membership in a landlord community but the OREA form is not a lease unless one provides a clause that states everything within the Agreement shall constitute "The Lease Agreement." In fact any one who understands contracts understands that simple statement.
A reading of the current form, (even its older version) specifically points to Schedules that would incorporate lease terms that any landlord and tenant in their rightful mind would state outright while another section points to a lease to come that is in agreement with the terms set out within this form. Anyone with any ability to read and understand a contract wouldn't have difficulty understanding this.
So What's the problem exactly?
I can't say it often enough - if one doesn't perform proper due diligence in choosing their REALTOR then they may not get the representation they require.
It is no different to choosing the numerous landlords out there who have not a clue as to what should and should not be in a lease. RFD is not void of complaints from either side. It's all about the landlord and tenant conducting due diligence and forming a contract that inures to the benefit of both.
Do you not agree beeg?

OREA's Guidelines for Residential and Commercial Clauses
Look through the table of contents, find the clauses you want to add and you could probably create your own Schedule to attach to the OREA lease. Some stuff I would probably look into:
- Appliances to be supplied and maintained
- Ability to adjust rent during the term (if multi-year)
- Ability to enter premises with notice
- Deposits for keys/garage door opener/etc
- Ability to assign lease or sublet
- Take precautions against freezing of water/waste pipes e.g. during leave of absence
- NSF charges for bounced cheques
- Ability to Tenant to alter decor e.g. put up posters, paintings
- Pets
- Changing of lightbulbs
- Occupancy only by the people on the lease (and not anyone else without permission)

http://www.thecanadianlandlordallian...eAgreement.pdf, which this prospective tenant outright refused, believing it's overkill (yes, from her perspective, but not from mine), but nice to see this agreement as it wraps everything together nicely and is boilerplate. If this prospective tenant again refuses or begins striking out clauses, it's really time to give up and focus on other prospective tenants
Again, thanks!

BEST BETS: "Jessica Jones," "Big Trouble/Escape from New York" & More October 2016 Highlights
Comic Books
[Editor's note: Each Sunday, Robot 6 contributors discuss the best in comics from the last seven days — from news and announcements to a great comic that came out to something cool creators or fans have done.]
A couple of weeks ago, my husband and I went to Meredith, New Hampshire, for a quiet weekend Away From It All. I had never heard of Meredith before, but my last-minute search on Expedia turned up a little inn there that had a reasonable price and good ratings, so off we went.
I wasn't really expecting to have any comics experiences there, other than reading the stack I brought with me, but comics just seem to follow me around. We spent a pleasant hour in a bookstore in the center of town, and as we headed for the cash register, I noticed a biography of Bob Montana, the original artist for Archie. I grabbed it and added it to the stack, and the cashier said to me, "Did you know he lived here?" I didn't, but it turns out that he not only lived in Meredith for most of his adult life, he owned an art gallery that was just steps away from the bookstore (although according to the minutes of this January meeting of the Meredith Planning Board, it may not be there for much longer—a developer is planning to tear it down and replace it with a new structure).
On Thursday, Mondo will offer six posters by Alex Ross, Francesco Francavilla and Jay Shaw that were previously only available at MondoCon, held last month in Austin, Texas. So if you're a fan of those artists, or of The Iron Giant, Afterlife With Archie or Deadpool, you'll probably want to keep an eye on Mondo's Twitter account for the on-sale announcements.
Check out the prints, and the details, below.
Archie Comics has launched what it calls its new app — it's really an update of the publisher's existing iOS and Android apps — with an offer of 100 free comics for those who download it. And there may be more: I asked Archie's Alex Segura how long the promotion would be in effect and he said, "We're looking to have this up for about a month, and if downloads reach a certain threshold, we'll be unlocking more free books on a tiered basis to celebrate the new app launches on Android and iOS."
There's quite a range of free comics available on the app, including classics, recent releases and comics that feature the side characters Jinx, Sabrina (original and manga versions) and Cosmo the Merry Martian. Not present: Afterlife With Archie, which carries a teen rating as opposed to Archie's standard all-ages rating. There are also no Sonic, Mega Man or New Crusaders freebies, although they are available for in-app purchase. Say what? Yes, this app is built on iVerse's Comics Plus platform, so you can buy new comics in-app. The app also includes Archie Unlimited, an all-you-can eat subscription service that allows subscribers to read a ton of comics, both new and back issues; because it's integrated into the app, you can then buy the ones you want to keep.
Here are my picks for six free Archie comics that make entertaining reading, especially on a lazy summer weekend.
Editorial cartoons | The public-relations consultant hired by the city of Murrieta, California, after residents protested the arrival of refugee children to be processed there, told cartoonist Lalo Alcaraz that referring to Murietta as "Hate City USA" was "actionable." "There IS a fine line between your constitutional right to draw cartoons and expressed (sic) your opinions," Hermosillo wrote in a comment on Alcaraz's Facebook page, "and falsely, deliberately, and maliciously labeling and attacking an entire community as racist or as 'Hate City.' You are working overtime to damage Murrieta and such a false premise is actionable. There's a fine line between humor and stupidity. You may have crossed that line at your own peril." Murrieta spokesperson Kim Davidson walked that back, however, saying the city has no plans to sue Alcaraz. [The Press Enterprise]
Publishing | Archie Comics Co-CEO Jon Goldwater responds to Singapore's ban of the third volume of Life With Archie, which features the wedding of Kevin Keller and Clay Walker: "Riverdale will always be about acceptance, equality and safety. I'm sad readers in Singapore will miss out on the chance to read such a pivotal moment in comics." [The Hollywood Reporter]
Business | Devin Leonard looks at the possible effects of a Fox/Time-Warner merger on superhero movies; Time-Warner owns DC Entertainment, and Fox has the movie rights to some Marvel characters. The New York Times offers a broader overview. [Business Week]
Recalling reading his sister's Archie comics as a child, an "upset" David Letterman last night delivered the news of Archie Andrews' death to his Late Show audience.
"Archie is going to be shot dead," Letterman said. "I don't know what to say — the Archie people have grown up now, and as I understand it Archie, defending a friend of his who is gay, takes a bullet for his gay friend and is shot dead. He dies a hero, but he's dead. […] What do we do? What's next, Dagwood Bumstead chokes to death on one of those sandwiches?"
Publishing | John Jackson Miller mines the circulation statements provided once a year to put together a 54-year sales history of Archie Comics' flagship title Archie (the publisher is one of the few that still prints annual statements of ownership, allowing the numbers to be traced back, unbroken, to 1960). As he points out, Archie was a big newsstand title, selling almost 600,000 copies in the late 1960s, but it didn't fare well when comics moved to the direct market — although Archie Comics has done well nonetheless with its digests, which far outsell its single-issue comics. [Comichron]
Publishing | Annie Koyama of Koyama Press talks with Dan Berry about how comics publishing works, and how she got into the field. [Make It Then Tell Everybody]
Legal | At the request of a state-owned distributor, the Russian media watchdog Roskomnadzor is investigating charges that Marvel comics are "propaganda of a cult of violence," specifically, violence against Russian targets. The agency will review Avengers #1, due out in Russia in August, "regarding the use of Soviet symbols, the presentation of the characters as Russian service personnel, and the incitement of violence and cruelty," according to the the Russian Legal Information Agency. This seems to be about the Winter Guard and specifically about Vanguard, who wears a hammer-and-sickle logo; the European publisher, Egmont, plans to remove the logo for the Russian release. Roskomnadzor has the option of issuing an official warning; a publisher who gets two of these in a year may have its license revoked. [CNET]
Publishing | Spurred by the GoFundMe campaign launched last week by Dan Vado to get SLG Publishing "back on its feet," Comic-Con and the Business of Pop Culture author Rob Salkowitz wonders whether a nonprofit model might make sense for some indie/niche publishers: "Contrary to popular perception, however, being a non-profit doesn't mean you can't make money. Lots of successful non-profits generate revenues in the millions and pay their staff, executives and contributors salaries comparable with those in the private sector. They can also pay contractors and contributors like performers or creators full market rates. They just don't pay shareholders, and they plow any excess revenues back into their operations." [ICv2.com]
Passings | Michael Cavna rounds up tributes and remembrances from the colleagues of the editorial cartoonist Etta Hulme, who died last week at age 90. [Comic Riffs]
Passings | Tom Medley, creator of the comic Stroker McGurk, which ran in Hot Rod magazine for many years, died on March 2 at the age of 93. Medley was a hot-rodder himself, which is how he got his big break: He used to post his cartoons at a local hot-rod builder, and the publisher of Hot Rod, which was just getting off the ground at the time, spotted them and hired Medley as his comics and humor editor. Medley's son Gary said his father's humor sometimes foreshadowed reality: "Stroker's — or Medley's — inspired genius came up with a host of crazy ideas that appeared impractical at first, but were later adopted by everyday car builders and racers. Multi-engine dragsters, wheelie bars, and drag chutes all sprung from Stroker's fertile mind before they were embraced in the real world." [AutoWeek]
Creators | Jeff Smith, who was named last week to the board of the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund, talks briefly about the importance of the organization, and the 2010 challenge to his all-ages graphic novel Bone in a Minnesota school. [Comic Riffs]
Comics | Archie Co-CEO Jon Goldwater, writer Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and artist Francesco Francavilla have a few things to say about the new zombie series Afterlife With Archie. "We are taking a series of characters known to be lighthearted and young adult-oriented and doing a horror comic with them, so the mood, atmosphere, and setting are very important to make this a believable horror and not a comedy horror," says Francavilla, who's also the creator of The Black Beetle. "Fortunately, I am really good at making things dark and ominous." [The Associated Press]
Archie Comics made its first incursion into the world of fashion earlier this year with a line of Mac cosmetics; now the publisher is moving on to shoes and other accessories.
London designer Charlotte Olympia has announced a new line of shoes and purses featuring vintage Archie comics and characters, including a pair of blue suede peep-toe pumps featuring Betty and Veronica that are priced at a cool $1,095, platform wedges adorned with vintage Archie pages for $1,295, and an Archie clutch purse for $1,595.
According to the Glam blog, Olympia has been an Archie fan since childhood, and the style of the comics in these products reflects the era she grew up in, the 1950s.
"When I was 10 years old, my best friend used to go to America every holiday and bring Archie comics back with her," she told Women's Wear Daily. "I still read them today. I especially love Betty and Veronica, they have that retro pin-up look that I adore."
Legal | Palestinian cartoonist Mohammed Saba'aneh was released from an Israeli prison on Monday, as scheduled. Saba'aneh, who was originally held without charges and eventually sentenced to five months for "contacts with a hostile organization," drew several cartoons while he was in prison and plans to do a show of his prison drawings, focusing on Palestinian prisoners who, he says, are in prison "just because they are Palestinians." [PRI's The World]
Manga | In a major coup for a manga publisher, Digital Manga (which, contrary to its name, also published print manga) announced at Anime Expo that it has signed a deal with Tezuka Productions to publish all of Osamu Tezuka's works in North America. While the details aren't entirely clear, it sounds like Digital is working on some new licenses and will have digital rights to books released here in print by other publishers. [Anime News Network]
At Comics Oughta Be Fun, everyone's favorite, little stuffed blogging bull has declared June to be Bear Attack Month. "Even tho' they have never gotten their own series," Bully writes, "bears attacking is one of the most common tropes of comic books both yesterday and today." That's why – all month long – he's featuring comic book scenes of bears attacking everyone from superheroes to Springfield. I've included a couple of my favorites below, but there's lots more (and more to come) at Bully's site.
Or, "Betty & Veronica & Brandon & Emily."
Cartoonist Brandon Graham is well known for thinking about the mechanics of comics. Recently, he and fellow cartoonist Emily Carroll went about examining a throw-off five-page Betty & Veronica comic be redoing it in their own styles. The results? Marvelous.
Here's the first page from each. If you're enticed, click over to Graham's blog post containing both full comics as well as the original Betty & Veronica comic they are based on.

Recover .wim files
How do you recover/open .wim files after backing up the hard drive for reboot on an HP note book? Your help would be much appreciated!! Thanks Ed
Re: Recover .wim files
There should be a Restore.exe or RecoveryMgr.exe in the file backup folder that was created during backup of your files, execute this file and it should uncompress all the files and put them in a folder on the C drive named "System Recovery"
Re: Recover .wim files
It recovered the data files BUT the files are empty when I open them. These files are the .xl and .doc and .jpg files. These are the files I need most. Thanks Ed.
Re: Recover .wim files
My understanding is 7-Zip can read and extract files from wim images.
You might try maually extracting the folders you need, see if the files are intact.
Re: Recover .wim files
We found out the files were hidden. Everythings good now. Thanks for your help!! Merry Christmas!!
Re: Recover .wim files
You are welcome, Merry Christmas!
Re: Recover .wim files
hey idk how old this post is, but i am also experincing these preoblems can you tell me what you did to correct the problem?
many thanks
Re: Recover .wim files
Hi: I have WIM backup files on 4 DVD's I want to restore on my Pavillion laptop, but I only want to restore certain files and not others*.
(* I suspect that an offending program (McAfee) may have caused a conflict (with Norton) that corrupted my start-up file and I don't want to reinstall that program and have the same thing happen again).
When I click Restore.exe on each of the 4 disks and the files uncompress and are copied to a System Recover folder on my hard drive: (a) do these files remain "uninstalled" or do they (especially program .exe's) immediately become active on the hard drive? (b) can I identify and cherrypick the files I want to reinstall on my hard drive? (c) do the files come with their own original folders or do I need to create new folders and directories on my hard drive for them? (d) what's the protocol for copying or moving files, folders and directories to appropriate locations on my hard drive?
Thanks. JJG
Re: Recover .wim files
The recovered files are not put back where they belong, you have to sort through them to find what you deem important and copy them where you want them, no programs are backed up but some program data might be.
files will be in the original named folder where they came from, the new installation of the OS may have most of these folders already, some may have been created when you installed software programs.
Basically the file backup just copies files and folders so you don't lose them during recovery, you have to sort through them and figure out what needs to be done with them, HP backup backs up many folders that are useless, most of your personal files should be in a folder with your old user name in the "users" folder.

GetApp's ranking highlights the top 25 apps in different categories on GetApp. If an app is listed in more than one category, it has the potential to be ranked in each of these categories. The ranking is independent of any commercial campaign an app vendor has with GetApp. The ranking is based on 5 data points, each scored out of 20: reviews, integrations, mobile apps, media presence, and security.
Pricing starts at as little as $15 per user per month for a mobile licence, and from $25 per user per month for an admin user
Loc8.com is sold under two models - per user per month as SaaS in our public and private clouds, or as a traditional installaed application with an upfront cost for each user licence. This gives maximum flexibility to the purchaser - we also often have customers who start as SaaS and migrate to an installed system.
As companies grow to meet the increasing demand of their customers, maintaining a firm handle on assets can become a challenge. Lumping all of your facilities, trucks, equipment and other assets into a spreadsheet can create more problems than it solves. In the modern economy, companies need a streamlined asset management solution, and Loc8.com offers that and much more.
By combining a powerful web interface with apps for popular mobile device platforms like iOS and Android, Loc8 wants to connect every part of your business, from headquarters to every employee in the field.
There are a number of existing services that solve the same problems that Loc8 does, but what makes the app so unique is that it combines so many different functions under a single roof. At the fundamental level, it seeks to streamline what the developers call the Service Supply Chain. However, taken as a whole, Loc8 does much more, by integrating asset organization with help desk and maintenance management. After signing into the web app, your content is divided up into several workspaces.
Two main asset workspaces are available, one which allows robust searches and the other which helps you understand how depreciation is affecting those assets. The asset explorer view offers a grid that helps organize everything based on a number of user-defined categories, and filter your view by statuses such as present location. Searches are powerful, and will find matches across all of your data.
Pulling up the inspector window presents you with a wealth of information. For physical sites, you can add an address (and GPS coordinates), see associated work orders and schedules, and get contact information. For assets like furniture or equipment, you can add fields like purchase price and date, warranty information, and much more. The depreciation explorer takes your asset database and adds a number of fields, such as purchase value and rate of depreciation, in order to help you stay aware of how much longer you can anticipate getting the most out of your assets.
The help desk integration is incredibly powerful as well. After entering the standard information and assigning the ticket a priority, you can add an asset by searching based on the name or ID number. Anyone familiar with database tools like Microsoft Access will be familiar with the concept of unique IDs, and will understand how convenient it is to have options when it comes to searching. Limits can be set to the budget and files can be attached as well. The help desk view is simple and easy to understand, with a number of ways to filter the tickets that get displayed.
The maintenance view is also quite useful. Of particular convenience is the way the app differentiates between reactive and preventative issues. When you input an asset that requires, say, monthly maintenance, you will be alerted to that matter as needed. The developers have a deep interest in mapping and geospatial information systems (GIS), and that translates well into Loc8. The app uses a proximity algorithm to dispatch work orders in an efficient way to minimize costs. Other resource tools include unified address and contact book, relationship management, and subcontractor management. All of this integrates seamlessly with a number of third-party services, including SAP, Quicken, Twitter, Facebook, Salesforce, and more.
As a service geared towards keeping your business organized in the field, Loc8 has developed a tightly-integrated set of mobile apps. Rather than simply creating a mobile version of the webinterface, the apps are optimized for small screens and loaded with location-specific features.
In addition to having access to asset management tools, users of the mobile apps can create and view tasks and sub-tasks to help organize their work. This would be very practical for various use-cases, such as repair professionals who need to make several stops around a city every day. Like the web interface, organization is key, and the mobile app allows robust filtering. You can manage tasks and work orders quickly by filtering based on what is due on site, high priority, last updated, and more. The map view helps you visualize where you are in relation to the work you need to get done.
Push notifications can be enabled for a number of alerts. Managers can send messages about changes in a work order, and they can see where workers are based on the mobile device's location.
Loc8 offers multiple integrations, they are continuously growing their integration options and are open to customer suggestions. Through Loc8.com's API's, integration is available with SalesForce, Quicken, Facebook, Twitter, SAP, Oracle, Adobe, Android, Apple, Windows Mobile, Windows Server, Motorola and MYOB.
Loc8′s pricing structure offers several tiers to accommodate the diverse needs of prospective users, and their roles within their organizations. Three main pricing subdivisions are broken down by the edition that each user has access to. These include the team edition, the service edition, and the enterprise edition. Within these categories, there are various licenses start at $5.00 per month. At the low end, the basic "Technician Receive Only" license allows technicians to access emails, PDFs and text messages from supervisors. Adding features and capabilities adds to the costs, with the most expensive license costing $79.00. There are a number of options between those two price points.

Pros: The filtering power in the main application is good and will help us greatly in decision making.
Cons: It takes a little time to master the software, but once you have it mastered its great.
Sergio Costanzo
Loc8 has provided us with a solution to maintain our facilities management operation. We needed an effective simple solution to manage contractors and assets, which resulted with what we were looking for. The system will provide a management service to identify, schedule, manage and collect all documentation. This will provide assurance that out buildings are meeting with current regulation. This service operates on line, and manages the recommendation and approval of invoices. We have been happy with the service and their development and support team and would recommend their service."
Pros: Other benefits include no programming required, safely edit contents, search engine friendly, minimal training required and reduced cost compared to other FM softwares.
Cons: There are no cons.
Loc8 is a simple and easy to use asset management system. We previously managed our assets in a spreadsheet that was impossible to keep up to date. Now with loc8, all of our data is in the 1 location in an easy to use interface.
Pros: Able to personalize the views and set the system up to match our business requirements
Cons: Bulk Imports can be a little tricky
Binh Phan
Fantastic for facility management with one or hundreds of technicians. We maintain 27,000 buildings right across Australia, in remote locations, and have over 70 mobile technicians using Loc8 daily.
Pros: Great User Interface. Navigating is easy; icons make it user friendly for all types of users. Asset Management Tool for all purposes. Speed of system is good on both LAN, Internet & wireless. Implementation is easy for end-users. Web based.
Cons: System is dependant on Adobe Flash Player, which means ensuring the latest version is rolled out. However, it does give a great user experience.

Firefox has a SpiderMonkey javascript engine. Chrome has V8 javascript engine.
Obviously those engines are a separate products and browsers utilize some kind of interface API to interact with them.
On the other hand programmers longed for a long time for their favorite language in browser. So much so, that we have products like GWT (for java), parenscript (for common lisp), HJScript (for haskell), and i'm sure many other libraries for many other languages that allow programmers stay with their favorite language and generate client side code as well.
The idea is so obvious that i am surprised that there's no implementation of it yet. Why not publish the interface API of browser to language engine and allow web sites to provide custom language engines as downloadable bundles. With current internet speeds 3-4 megabytes one time download is not a problem for majority of applications, even more so for intranet usage.
So where's our pluggable engines ?

My only regret about our two night stay at the Hotel Zero Degrees during Thanksgiving, was that we had so little time to spend enjoying the hotel! When we arrived, we were given a very nice room. However, I had asked for a room away from an ice machine when I booked through Tingo, and our room was directly across from the ice machine! I had also asked for a refrigerator, which was in my room. When I went downstairs to mention the proximity to the ice machine, a lovely woman named Anastasia offered to move me to another room as well as to move my refrigerator. She then proceeded to get a cart, and BY HERSELF lifted the refrigerator onto the cart, and moved all my stuff to an even better room on the top floor, in a very quiet area. I was impressed! The room we stayed in was immaculate, and the bed was unbelievably comfortable. Starbucks coffee, breakfast, everyone pleasant, small parking garage but we managed. We will definitely be staying here every Thanksgiving when we visit relatives.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Hotel Zero Degrees, located in Downtown Stamford CT, is a boutique hotel where style and comfort collide to form the perfect blend of sophistication and revitalization.

Chef Shack opening a brick-and-mortar restaurant
Carlson and Summers are heading east
Travis Anderson
Summer and Carlson have purchased a property in Bay City, Wisconsin, which used to be a restaurant called River Bay Cafe. The pair will close on the property on August 15 and will begin renovations in preparation for a fall opening.
The space, which seats 40 guests inside and 40 more on the patio, was already outfitted with a wood-burning pizza oven, so Chef Shack will likely be adding pizzas to their repertoire. Dinner will be served on Friday and Saturday evenings, but Carlson and Summer say that Sunday brunch may be added in the future.

Aliases for ITGB1BP1 Gene
Aliases for ITGB1BP1 Gene
External Ids for ITGB1BP1 Gene
- Entrez Gene: 9270
- Ensembl: ENSG00000119185
- UniProtKB: O14713
Previous GeneCards Identifiers for ITGB1BP1 Gene
Summaries for ITGB1BP1 Gene
The cytoplasmic domains of integrins are essential for cell adhesion. The protein encoded by this gene binds to the beta1 integrin cytoplasmic domain. The interaction between this protein and beta1 integrin is highly specific. Two isoforms of this protein are derived from alternatively spliced transcripts. The shorter form of this protein does not interact with the beta1 integrin cytoplasmic domain. The longer form is a phosphoprotein and the extent of its phosphorylation is regulated by the cell-matrix interaction, suggesting an important role of this protein during integrin-dependent cell adhesion. Several transcript variants, some protein-coding and some non-protein coding, have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]
GeneCards Summary for ITGB1BP1 Gene
ITGB1BP1 (Integrin Subunit Beta 1 Binding Protein 1) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with ITGB1BP1 include cavernous malformation. Among its related pathways are Development Angiotensin activation of ERK. GO annotations related to this gene include protein kinase binding and integrin binding.
UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot for ITGB1BP1 Gene
Key regulator of the integrin-mediated cell-matrix interaction signaling by binding to the ITGB1 cytoplasmic tail and preventing the activation of integrin alpha-5/beta-1 (heterodimer of ITGA5 and ITGB1) by talin or FERMT1. Plays a role in cell proliferation, differentiation, spreading, adhesion and migration in the context of mineralization and bone development and angiogenesis. Stimulates cellular proliferation in a fibronectin-dependent manner. Involved in the regulation of beta-1 integrin-containing focal adhesion (FA) site dynamics by controlling its assembly rate during cell adhesion; inhibits beta-1 integrin clustering within FA by directly competing with talin TLN1, and hence stimulates osteoblast spreading and migration in a fibronectin-and/or collagen-dependent manner. Acts as a guanine nucleotide dissociation inhibitor (GDI) by regulating Rho family GTPases during integrin-mediated cell matrix adhesion; reduces the level of active GTP-bound form of both CDC42 and RAC1 GTPases upon cell adhesion to fibronectin. Stimulates the release of active CDC42 from the membranes to maintain it in an inactive cytoplasmic pool. Participates in the translocation of the Rho-associated protein kinase ROCK1 to membrane ruffles at cell leading edges of the cell membrane, leading to an increase of myoblast cell migration on laminin. Plays a role in bone mineralization at a late stage of osteoblast differentiation; modulates the dynamic formation of focal adhesions into fibrillar adhesions, which are adhesive structures responsible for fibronectin deposition and fibrillogenesis. Plays a role in blood vessel development; acts as a negative regulator of angiogenesis by attenuating endothelial cell proliferation and migration, lumen formation and sprouting angiogenesis by promoting AKT phosphorylation and inhibiting ERK1/2 phosphorylation through activation of the Notch signaling pathway. Promotes transcriptional activity of the MYC promoter.

Fishers Island, N.Y. - On a raw, damp day last week, Justine Kibbe made her way across the lawn of former New Jersey Gov. Thomas Kean's summer house, through a gated path to a deserted beach called Hungry Point.
"Last week, I counted 13 seals here, but I've counted over 100 at this point," Kibbe said, binoculars up to scan the choppy waters and a cluster of rocks where harbor seals often in comical poses resembling oversized bananas. "This is the most diverse area for wildlife on the island."
On this quiet, overcast October morning, she spots just one seal pop its head out of the water, five eider ducks, two great black-backed gulls and a herring gull, then walks the beach, noting coyote tracks in the sand. On a tally sheet attached to a small clipboard, she records each wildlife sighting, along with signs of the human element. Today it's a tug towing a barge, but other days there would be lobster boats, ferries and sailboats, as well as trash, dog walkers or fishermen.
With its location in the populous Northeast, Fishers Island for much of the year possesses a paradoxical flavor of both remoteness and nearness to the wider world, with the developed shores of southeastern Connecticut clearly visible from streets and beaches where private access gates and security signs seem to outnumber people, and the marine, forest and field landscapes between the handsome summer homes invite appreciation of solitude and natural beauty.
Kibbe, who is 52, a year ago became the naturalist-in-residence for this small, exclusive summer resort just a 45-minute ferry ride from New London. The island is home to a population of about 260 year-round residents that multiplies manyfold between Memorial Day and Labor Day.
Employed through a Fishers Island Conservancy grant, Kibbe is spending her days circumnavigating the island, often by bicycle, to monitor 12 shoreline and interior sites.
"I'm learning the rhythms of the wildlife, the rhythms of the island," said Kibbe, who lives in a small cottage on Darby's Cove. "It's exciting. I feel like this is kind of like a neighborhood wildlife watch."
She is a regular visitor of the kingfisher that hangs out at the oyster farm, the oystercatcher pairs that nested at South Beach, the dolphin pod that interruped the ferry's departure last winter, and the buffleheads and surf scoters at Isabella Beach, and the red, green and white seaweeds that collect on the sandy shores.
She observes how storms are reshaping the coast - a reality made immediately poignant when Superstorm Sandy struck just one week after she began her work -and ponders a project to restore a brackish pond, once a haven for shorebirds but now polluted with mats of brown muck blown in by Sandy.
"We wanted to understand what we have out there, and to use that to be able to educate our population about this special and delicate environment," said Tom Sargent, part-time island resident and president of the conservancy, a nonprofit group with several hundred members.
Through Kibbe, the first naturalist employed by his group, islanders can learn about the impacts of climate change, the warblers and raptors that migrate through, the river otters that live around Middle Farms Pond, and the birds returning to a recently restored 50-acre grassland, he said. Despite the island's reputation for loving privacy above all else - one Sargent says is exaggerated - the conservancy is eager to connect through Kibbe with other conservation groups in the region, he said, and island property owners have been cooperative in giving her regular access.
"We certainly want to be tied to everyone from an environmental point of view," Sargent said.
After moving to Fishers Island two years ago, Kibbe started volunteering her time as a wildlife monitor, employing skills she learned over six years tracking fur seal populations on St. Paul Island in the Bering Sea, 750 miles from the Alaskan mainland. She then proposed working for the conservancy, collecting data, sharing her observations in a blog on the group's website and working with students at the island school.
"We've always tried to have a link with the conservancy, to give the students authentic learning experiences that are so important," Karen Loiselle Goodwin, principal of the Fishers Island School, said. "Justine has helped bring that to the next level."
Among projects with the K-12 school, which educates tuition-paying Connecticut students alongside island children, Kibbe has organized beach cleanups, started the Island Sentinels program that puts students to work doing field monitoring, and shared her experiences doing seal research in Alaska. Her work thus far with island youth - whether through the school or at the beach, tennis and golf clubs where their families gather in the summer - is just beginning, Kibbe said.
"Why not the country clubs?" Kibbe asked, as she walked past the now-covered swimming pool at the Hay Harbor Club to its waterfront, another of her monitoring spots. "It's all about bridging."
"Bridging" is a word Kibbe often uses to describe her outlook on her work and her life. Another is "chapters," used to describe the unique places and endeavors that fill her resume, from Head Start teacher's aide to radio station news director and fur seal research assistant among the Aleut community in Alaska, to Peace Corps volunteer in Kazakhstan.
The current chapter, she said, brings her story full circle. Growing up, she spent summers on Fishers Island at a once run-down home her parents bought and restored. It was here that her love of island life and being outdoors took root. And while she loves the island for the unique beauty she is eager to help preserve, she also hopes her work will enable the island to reach out to other communities, contributing knowledge and appreciation for the natural world and the human impact on it. Lessons she learned on St. Paul Island, home to just 420 native people, serve as her guide.
There, she said, "you bridged out of necessity, because the environment and the culture are endangered." The fur seal population that first brought settlers to the island is declining, and rising sea levels from climate change are threatening human life on the island in profound ways. When she decided to end her time there and start her "East Coast chapter," Kibbe said, she at first thought her experiences in Alaska would make for a more seamless transition.
"The biggest culture shock for me coming back to Fishers Island was its tradition of exclusivity and privacy. That was a whole new facet of culture I had to learn to navigate," she said. "I want to break the tradition of Fishers Island always looking inward, and start looking outward, or it will implode."

KINGSTON — Residents advocated for their favorite city hospital to remain open Tuesday while chiding company leaders for perceived mismanagement.
Some 15 speakers at a Kingston City Hall forum criticized HealthAlliance of the Hudson Valley's plan to close either Kingston or Benedictine hospital.
"It seems like there was a premeditated plan for failure," said Margie Griffin.
In March 2009, the two Midtown Kingston hospitals received $47 million from the state to merge operations. The move was explained at the time as the only way to prevent Benedictine Hospital from closing.
Speakers at Tuesday's forum wondered how the plan went awry so quickly. About 100 people attended the meeting.
"There has to have been a business plan we should have been following," said Jean Jacobs of Kingston.
HealthAlliance CEO David Lundquist said the facility had no way of anticipating how hard the economic downturn would hit the hospital industry. But he admits hospital officials underestimated the extent to which physicians were taking over outpatient services, such as colonoscopies.
"We missed the mark on that," said Lundquist, noting that outpatient revenue fell $7.5 million from 2010 to 2011.
Audience members in favor of abortion rights argued the unaffiliated Kingston campus should remain open, while abortion opponents advocated for the Roman Catholic Benedictine campus.
"We need to be pro-life for the people who want to be," said Beth Safford.
Reproductive services are offered at a separate $4 million facility, which opened after the merger. The center has lacked a doctor to provide abortions for most of the past year.
HealthAlliance leaders have struggled to get Kingston-area residents to use their local hospitals. Some 45 percent of local residents travel to Albany or Dutchess or Orange counties for their hospital visits. Lundquist would like to get that figure down to 30 percent.
Company leaders will present their preliminary closure plan to the state Health Department July 9. The plan will be finalized by fall, Lundquist said.

Hi there.
I was wondering if anyone can help stop my hair turning grey?
I recently created a WordPress website 5 weeks ago - brandnewcopy.com but most of the time the server is not found in my browser (Firefox). However, everyone else can access it.
I also can't log into my wordpress dashboard using brandewcopy.com/wp-admin. I'm using a new laptop (4 weeks old) with Windows 8 and can't access it even on my old laptop using Windows 7. I'm able to access every other website - it's only brandnewcopy.com that the server isn't found. I haven't installed any anti-virus programs on the new laptop yet so all I'm running is McAfee security scan and Windows Firewall. I've tried the following things:
- Using different browsers
- Flushing DNS cache
- Clearing DNS cache through browser 'tools' menu
- Changing the proxy settings from automatic to manual and back again
- Overriding DNS cache
- Scanning my laptop for malware in case of DNS poisoning
- Adjusting various settings on Windows firewall
Unfortunately none of these things have created a permanent fix. I've also contacted my web hosts and they say my nameservers are set up correctly and my files have all been installed properly too.
I don't suppose anyone has any ideas?

JERUSALEM (AP) - Now that's a lucky number.
For the second time in a month, Israel's biweekly national lottery produced the same winning combination: 13, 14, 26, 32, 33 and 36.
The results of Saturday night's draw were identical to those of Sept. 21.
Chairman of Israel's National Lottery Authority, Saul Sutnik, called the outcome a "rare probability" and said the results were checked several times to verify them.

DescriptionParkata Urbatsu is the katas[1] , or practiced form, positions, and styles of urban movement. It grew out of the ancient disciplines of parkour[2] , urbobatics, and youtubing[3] . It is a martial art that focuses on both pursuit and escape in developed environments, with an eye towards the aesthetic. Whether you play the pursuer or the pursued, your goal is not just the completion of the chase. Your goal is to have your opponents and any bystanders stop in awe as they ask themselves "How did he do THAT?"[2010-03-07].
This martial art figures prominently into the Massively Parallel storyline.

I have one user who has their Lync contact list showing wrong user information.
For example, one contact was listed correctly yesterday, but now their name changed to someone outside of the company, but in the users Outlook contact list. When I go into the contact card, it shows information for multiple contacts in the user's Outlook contact list.
