The Fashionchick Story
Online or offline, it is not always easy to find exactly what you're looking for. Whether it's an addition to your wardrobe or a gift for a girlfriend, how do you know if you made the right choice? We understand women have a tendancy to want to see everything before they buy anything!
"It all began in 2007. Online shopping was a relatively new concept but I had the realisation that a central point for all the best online shops was missing. An online shopping street with all my favourtie shops. A site where women can find inspiration, chat about their finds and then shop these items directly. The idea of Fashionchick became a reality and we now have it all in one beautiful site."

As of September 2013 Sanoma b.v bought a 100% share of the company No Search and Ellenow works as the concept and brand manager for Fashionchick, Mentoday, Kidstoday and Styletoday.

His combination of technical and commercial expertise ensures a good traffic mix for all sites. By 2013, Sjoerd had a dedicated team of five full-time SEM specialists and motivated trainees who are engaged in the testing and development of new campaigns on a daily basis. In addition, they provide support for the various concepts.

Don't Rain on Me
Rain down the chimney isn't a problem everywhere, but in some climates a little extra protection is warranted. In those cases, homeowners may opt for a matching terra cotta rainguard. Many styles exist, and they can be matched to most new chimney pots, as well as some antiques.

Hi-Rez: Tribes Universe on hold, priority for now is Ascend
Hi-Rez Studios has indicated that MMO Tribes Universe is on hold, noting the main focus for the IP right now is shooter Ascend.
In a Q&A, CEO Todd Harris told PC PowerPlay Magazine that it would continue to further explore the Tribes and Starsiege IPs.
"Our studio is a huge fan of the previous Tribes games," said Harris. "So after we acquired the rights to Tribes our first goal was to get the movement and physics and combat feeling right.
"When we made enough progress toward that goal we decided to release a pure match-based shooter ahead of any MMO and that shooter became Ascend. We do still intend to further explore the Tribes and Starsiege IP with future projects, but right now our Tribes dev team is working only on Ascend."
The free-to-play shooter entered into beta last year, but a date for its full release on PC and Xbox 360 hasn't been announced. MMO Universe was announced back in 2010.

Pete Seeger
Pete Seeger is entertaining and leading a crowd in a sing along. Among is causes was the environment and this annual festival was instrumental in calling attention to and cleaning up the pollution in New York's Hudson River. This is from 2007 and his voice was considerably weakened so almost all the songs had audience participation; he loved to get a crowd singing.
The Clearwater Festival (officially The Great Hudson River Revival) is a music and environmental summer festival and America's oldest and largest annual festival of its kind. This unique event has hosted over 15,000 people on a weekend in June for more than three decades. All proceeds benefit Hudson River Sloop Clearwater, Inc., a nonprofit 501(c)(3) environmental organization. The Festival was founded in 1966 by Toshi Seeger and her husband, folk singer Pete Seeger, who regularly performs at it. (Wikipedia)

Kitsap Sun, Meegan M. Reid, Associated Press
SEATTLE — A monster Pacific Northwest storm coated the Seattle area in a thick layer of ice Thursday and brought much of the state to a standstill, sending hundreds of cars spinning out of control, temporarily shutting down the airport and knocking down so many trees that members of the Washington State Patrol brought chain saws to work.
Oregon experienced torrential rain that swept away a car from a grocery store parking lot, killing a 1-year-old boy and leaving his mother missing and feared dead. East of a Seattle, a man was killed by a falling tree.
The snow, ice and heavy rains continued wreak havoc in the region a day after the system brought a huge snowfall to parts of Washington state. The storm also raised worries that flooding could become a broader concern for days to come.
"It's like a storm in slow motion that keeps happening again and again," said Puget Sound Energy spokesman Roger Thompson.
Freezing rain and ice pellets caused numerous accidents in the Seattle area, where drivers are mostly inexperienced with driving in snow or ice. The last widespread freezing rain in Seattle was in December 1996, said meteorologist Jeff Michalski at the Weather Service. On the icy interstate north of Seattle, a transportation department worker responding to an accident was injured in crash. The 36-year-old man was taken to a Seattle hospital and listed in satisfactory condition.
The National Weather Service used the Emergency Alert System to break into Thursday morning broadcasts with an ice storm warning until noon for the Seattle area and southwest Washington, a warning that was extended into the early afternoon. Among the concerns were widespread power outages and the threat that structures could collapse under the weight of ice.
The state Transportation Department closed one highway because of falling trees that also took out power lines, and about 200,000 were without power in the greater Seattle area Thursday, while Washington Gov. Chris Gregoire declared a state of emergency, authorizing the use of National Guard troops if necessary.
Ice closed Sea-Tac Airport completely in the early morning before one runway was reopened. Lines hundreds of people long snaked around nearly every ticket counter at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, with many passengers on their cell phones as they tried furiously to rebook their flights. Reader-boards showed the vast majority of flights canceled or delayed.
Cabbies struggled to get people at the airport and safely to their homes or hotels. Chris Van Dyk of Yellow Cab said "it's like servicing Dante's part of hell. It's an ice cube, it's just unreal."
Van Dyk said drivers tried to get people as close as they could to their destinations, but when they entered the side streets they kept getting stuck.
Braving the icy Queen Anne hill in Seattle, commercial truck driver Darrin Sjostrand was loading his Toyota Prius to drive his wife to the airport. He was giving himself an extra hour.
"It was supposed to warm up," he said. "Ice is kind of the great equalizer. It doesn't matter if you have a four-wheel drive, you're going to slide."
Authorities also worried about flooding in the coming days as temperatures warm up. Rain was forecast throughout the weekend.
"It's a very dangerous situation," with a major impact on roads, said Brad Colman, the meteorologist in charge of the Weather Service office in Seattle. "We're expecting a significant impact on power."
Oregon didn't receive the snowfall that Washington did — but got plenty of rain. Rising water from heavy rains swept a car carrying four people into an overflowing creek in Albany. Two people escaped but one child's body was recovered and authorities said the boy's mother was missing in the creek in the Willamette Valley community of Albany and feared dead.
"The water just got high so fast," said fire department spokeswoman Wanda Omdahl. "It's a big tragedy."

The arrangement graph An,k, which is a generalization of the star graph (n-t=1), presents more flexibility than the star graph in adjusting the major design parameters: number of nodes, degree, and diameter. Previously the arrangement graph has proven hamiltonian. In this paper we further show that the arrangement graph remains hamiltonian even if it is faulty. Let |Fe| and |Fv| denote the numbers of edge faults and vertex faults, respectively. We show that An,k is hamiltonian when (1) (k=2 and n-k⩾4, or k⩾3 and n-k⩾4+[k/2]), and |Fe|⩽k(n-k-2)-1, or (2) k⩾2, n-k⩾2+[k/2], and |F e|⩽k(n-k-3)-1, or (3) k⩾2, n-k⩾3, and |F3 |⩽k

Episodic migraine is a disabling painful disease that can affect the normal function of daily routine activities such as performance at work and school, and home and social relationships. In addition to the physical disability during migraine, between attacks many patients experience a condition referred to as interictal burden, which can present as pre-event worry about future attacks and can result in the anticipatory use and/or overuse of acute care medications. The overuse of medication can often lead to medication overuse headaches (MOHs) and chronic migraine. Unfortunately, patients, and even some physicians, are often unaware of this phenomenon. Therefore, it is important for knowledgeable physicians to raise awareness and to address the risks of medication overuse with their patients through effective communication. Future management of medication overuse should include detoxification and a comprehensive programme that includes the use of preventive medications such as sodium valproate (divalproex sodium) and topiramate in order to reduce dependency on acute care medication. Also, MOHs may be most effectively managed with the initiation of preventive treatment prior to detoxification, in addition to the decreased use of acute care medication. A long-term treatment plan, including behavioural therapy, migraine preventive medication and appropriate acute care therapy, may be optimal in treating patients with MOHs.

Comments about 'Robert J. Samuelson: Myth-making about economic inequality'
- Oldest first
- Newest first
- Most recommended
"For starters, the poor are not poor because the rich are rich." A
Marxist such as myself would argue that the process - profits - which has made
some wealthy (almost all are business owners) has made others (employees) less
well-off compared to what their situation would be with ownership rights.
The matters of defining what profits are and determining how profits are created has been a point of contention among both economists and accountants. Marx posed the question - in a system like ours where exchange mostly involves things of equivalent value - where do profits come from? Marx argued that for the most part profits come from employers not compensating employees for all of the value they add (Marx's famous surplus value). If Marx is right, labor is almost always exploited. You'll note that few become wealthy without employees. The wealthy make profits off of the employees.
If nothing else Samuelson's piece shows how necessary Marx's perspectives are. We're ready to debate, but Marx needs a place in the debate denied him by contemporary economics, and by commentators like Samuelson.

"(car dealerships, builders), creating big enterprises (Google, Microsoft),
being at the top of lucrative occupations (lawyers, doctors, actors, athletes),
managing major companies or inheriting fortunes."
These avenues for wealth have been around for a long long time. Why are they now producing so much more wealth?
If we look at the larger picture, worker productivity has grown significantly in the last 30 years and their wages have not. CEO's used to make 30 times their average worker, now it is closer to 300 times.
The focus on the bottom line has pushed companies to ship jobs overseas in order to maximize profits.
Granted this is a complex issue. And I agree that the "poor are not poor because the rich are rich".
But it is hard to deny that the effort of corporations to increase their bottom line has come, to some extent, at the expense of the poor and middle class.
Those with money can buy favorable legislation. I would contend that in the last 30 years they have tilted the playing field more in their favor, and that has grown the inequity.
Dont get me wrong. Profits are great. Maximum profits have a downside.

During his interview with Obama, Bill O'Reilly asked probably the most important question asked in that interview; "What has the government done to address the real cause of poverty in America, the explosion of single parent families, especially in the African American community". Obama's answer was that, "He has talked about this in at least 10 speeches"! More than anything else Obama talks about something he calls "social justice and income redistribution" which are in reality the enablers of the increase in single parent families, not the solution. The government with their easy welfare programs make men in the home irrelevant. Men do not need to provide for their offspring anymore, the government will do that for them which enables and sustains poverty. The solution to poverty is more moral responsibility not more government responsibility. Poverty will never be solved with income redistribution in fact it will increase it!

Both Marxist and JoeBlow give the impression that they find the necessity of government intervention or structure to be the answer to the questions of income or profit distribution. I would agree with JoeBlow that "maximum profits" may have been the result of government intervention . It does appear that money does have a significant influence on elections to Federal government representatives and cronyism is the result. Might not the answer be the downsizing of the influence of a centralized government? Would not that reduce the temptation to put your profits where they are the most effective - into the hands of a select few elected officials - who can then determine who benefits and who does not from the centralized empowered few? Might we not be better off with strengthened emphasis on the family, based upon a foundation of moral philosophy where we - as individuals - look for the opportunity to lift the poor and the unfortunate through our individual efforts? Profit motive is not an unworthy endeavor, since it is what provides for each of us the opportunity to provide for the needs of our families - where, hopefully, we are teaching principles that will lift our vision and our efforts.

Marxist. You continue to suggest that workers are exploited. That is totally
false for many reasons and here are just a few:
#1: In a free society businesses compete for talent (workers) and in order to attract and keep the best talent, they must pay workers with competitive salaries and benefits or their business fails.
#2: Prosperity is always generated by productivity. If low productivity produced prosperity there would be no poverty! America was prosperous because America was so very productive. Marxist societies like N. Korea, Cuba and the former USSR among many others were never productive and therefore never prosperous.
#3: There is no such thing as productivity without freedom to produce. When the government controls productivity, there never will be any prosperity. Capitalism rewards productivity, which generates prosperity. Marxism punishes productivity and therefore kills prosperity. History is full of examples.
#4: In a free society, if I don't like my employer and believe my employer is exploiting me, I am free to go somewhere else. In a Marxist society, you are what the government determines you are, not you.
#5: Only successful employers and employees pay taxes.
If you think workers in America are being exploited, you should visit a Marxist country.

Not true. I do believe however that governmental policies have contributed to the collection of wealth at the top.
While poor people have a vote, rich people and corporations have a vote AND lots of money.
This money can purchase legislation which is favorable to the corporations and the rich.
Look at tax rates in the last 30 years. Look at the favorable tax treatment of capital gains. Look at the loopholes and deductions available to corporation and the wealthy.
Yes, I understand that the wealthy pay the bulk of the taxes. But they also make a bulk of the money, and with a good accountant and favorable legislation, their % of often lower than many.
I believe that the playing field has increasingly been tilted to favor the wealthy, hence the growing income disparity.

Of course many wealthly people got that way by leveraging the value of many employees. Profits generated by paying employees less than they actually produce reward those who start businesses and/or invest capital in them.
The fatal flaw in your agrument (started by Marx) that businesses should pay employees the full value of their labor (i.e. share all the profits with workers) is that the businesses themselves would not exist without the profit motive. The workers would have no place to work.
Businesses are inherently risky ventures. For every one that succeeds, several more fail. I am trying to start a business. If I am successful, I will employ lots of people and I will become very wealthy. I would not even bother trying if the reward was the same as continuing to work for someone else. It's called capitalism. It works - not always perfectly but certainly better than Marxism ever has.

Any discussion of inequality needs to include one fact that this piece omits.
The share of the national wealth going to workers has declined precipitously
while the share of the national income going to corporate profits and to the
hyper-rich has skyrocketed. This discussion is not about the rich vs the poor.
It is about the rich vs. the working class and the middle class.
The CEO of Google recently admitted that Corporate America is shafting the middle class. He also admitted that the reason for the slow economic recovery is that the middle class has no money to spend, thus there is inadequate demand He said that no one corporation can solve this on their own, because any corporation that unilaterally raises salaries for their workers puts themselves at a competitive disadvantage. It is a problem that has to be solved collectively.

"The fatal flaw in your agrument (started by Marx) that businesses should

I highly doubt that anyone would espouse that idea.
However, the goal of a business should not be to pay their people as little as possible.
It is a tough labor market right now. We hear daily about the struggles of college graduates and how under-employed they are.
Business definitely has the upper hand. The question is how much should they squeeze. How many jobs should they move overseas to increase their profits.
When the job market is depressed, people have no choice to work for less. Unfortunately, business seems to be all to happy to pay as little as possible while cutting benefits.
Corporations have had a great run for several years. And their stockholders have done quite well. The employees? Not so much.
You know, just because you can, does not mean it is the right thing to do.

Regarding Marxist's explanation:
Historically, there have been three basic explanations for where overall profit in an economy comes from. These were put forth by Marx, Joseph Schumpeter, and Thorstein Veblen. Each of these explanations is right in a small sense and wrong in a much larger sense. The question of where profit comes from, when every transaction produces a situation in which every cent of revenue is offset by one penny of expense (all of my income is someone else's expense), is a very complex question. It can be explained, I believe, but not in the 200 words allotted here. Part of the explanation, though, is that money is borrowed into existence. Another part has to do with our system of accrual accounting in which revenues and expenses are not realized in the same year. If the economy grows over time, this results in revenues that exceed expenses (not just for one business), but for the aggregation of all businesses.
The problem of inequality, though, has a lot to do with initial distribution of wealth, and, as usual, Roland is right on target with his explanation. This is a systemic problem.

Mr. Samuelson calls out a "half right" analysis (WU economists) and
offers in return a half right analysis of his own.
If we can agree that poor people are often their own worst enemy due to a whole host of bad habits and bad decisions (this is not necessarily a moral condemnation, just a fact), can we also agree that they face entrenched disadvantages that our current economy often exacerbates?
We can see this in everything from the ubiquitous payday loan stores in poor neighborhoods to the relative lack of basic services (e.g., good police, education, etc…) to the massive economic insecurity (i.e., low skilled jobs can be shipped overseas tomorrow) driven by the modern economic mindset that corporations exist for one reason only – to maximize shareholder wealth.
Until the Left understands that there is a large component of personal responsibility and the Right understands that modern corporations that do not benefit society are amoral at best and often can be monstrous, we will continue to see half right solutions from both sides which are largely meant not to solve problems but to fuel the political divide.

Samuelson's numbers are a bit suspect when he claims that even the poor have experienced economic gains since 1980. He is apparently using actual numbers, not adjusted for inflation. When you take inflation into account, only the wealthy have made gains. So, in real terms, life is more difficult for not only the poor but also those in the middle.

This article reinforces my belief that many people covet what someone else has. If the top 1% earned their money with integrity, good for them. I look at beautiful houses and the luxury trips people take, and I tend to covet, also. I have to watch for this behavior as it is wrong. Also, I am grateful that I do have enough money to fulfill my needs. It took time and a lot of education, but we are doing okay. Anyway, who wants to clean a huge house?

Who is this "we" who want to punish the rich? I don't. I just want them to pay their fair share. They benefit way out of proportion to the rest of us, who are also hard working, contributing people. I would like to see them become enlightened capitalists and share (voluntarily) their amazing gains with the people who helped them--their employees. I would also like to see them pay their weight in taxes, none of which I consider "punishment." Why does Mitt Romney pay only 13% income tax when I pay a lot higher rate than that off a tiny fraction of his income?

What is a "fair wage"? How much to you pay your "paper boy"? I
made $0.50 per customer when I delivered newspapers. I had to collect for
papers sold, pay my own taxes and buy my own supplies. Was that fair? I had
100 customers. The route was five miles from my home. I started immediately
after school ended and was usually home within five hours. Do the math. The
GROSS profit was $50 per month. Was I being exploited? I don't think so.
It was the best learning experience of my life, at the time. I learned that I
did not want to always work for $0.30 per hour.
If "need" drives "covetousness", then society will fail. If "need" drives the desire to self-improve, to learn, to become better qualified, then society will benefit. Telling someone that he "deserves" more because his employer risked capital to provide a job is teaching a person how to fail. If he wants more money, he can either risk his own capital or prepare to get a better paying job. Too many people want to collect the profits without expending effort.

Re: IronyGuy " I would like to see them become enlightened capitalists and
share (voluntarily) their amazing gains with the people who helped them--their
employees." It's a nice thought but it's not going to happen (was
Henry Ford an exception?). Why? Once again we need Marx to explain.
Capitalists feel driven to maximize profits (surplus value) by minimizing wages,
because they fear losing it all. The explanation of this behavior is more
complex. There is no room here. But the behavior is obvious is it not? It
explains off-shoring and American down-sizing. And the process has gotten
really mean - cutting food stamps, cutting unemployment benefits, destroying
pension funds (largely completed), and the intent to destroy social security.
We know that capitalism can't function without a prosperous middle class. Even the wealthy know it, but they can't help themselves - they want maximum profits no matter what the cost.

We've got to stop paying attention to money - add value wherever you can,
get what money you need and then stop focusing on it. Capitalism is much better
than the alternatives but is still so blatantly dishonest that how much money a
person has means very little.
So many of us spend most of our lives dishonestly getting paid far below the value we add, all the while shuffling it upstairs to someone who just delegates the hard work back down to us. And if they fail they shuffle the risk down to us through the various safety nets & bailouts. And then we buy their products they misrepresent and overprice and then fight half the time because they don't work or break.
Focus on your own lives and ignore the rich and celebrities. Every dollar and blessing they have that they don't fully deserve they'll have to square with the rest of us in the end for.

Every time I hear or read someone say the rich should pay their fair share, I shake my head because of the ignorance it takes to make a statement like that. The wealthiest Americans pay nearly 80% of all federal income taxes paid while around 47% of Americans pay no federal income taxes at all! Obviously the rich are paying their fair share but guess who isn't paying their fair share?

This puzzles me because lesser fighters than Hopkins were able to control the pace and puzzle Tiger using movement.
Hopkins was a better boxer than most of the guys who actually outboxed Tiger. Hopkins was also a better light heavyweight than most if not all of the light heavyweights Tiger fought.
You act as if it was difficult to control the pace against Tiger. Gene proved that wrong. Fullmer couldnt box his way out of a paper bag but the instant he started moving backwards Tiger looked clueless. Tiger was great against guys who came at him. He would chop them up all night long. But when the opponent mixed movement into the equation he gave Tiger problems.
Id be rooting for Tiger but I dont see him winning.

- Rated: PG-13
- Genre: Comedy

- Running Time: 107 minutes
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that this workplace comedy -- which co-stars Rachel McAdams, Harrison Ford, and Diane Keaton -- is formulaic, but it's also surprisingly earnest and full of heart. Though some of the characters are self-centered and surly, the movie ultimately has positive messages about the value of hard work and authenticity. Expect some making out and a few sexual innuendoes, a fair bit of swearing (including "f--k"), some drinking and cigar smoking, and disheartening bitterness from some of the more hardened characters.

What's the story?
After being laid off from her job at a middling New Jersey TV show, Becky Fuller (Rachel McAdams) throws herself into the job search, finally landing a position as a producer for fourth-ranked morning news show Daybreak. The opportunity kickstarts the can-do attitude that has always fueled her. Sadly, not everyone at the network shares Becky's zeal. Daybreak's ratings are in the Dumpster, and, amazingly, can sink even further. It doesn't help that morale is low, ideas are unoriginal, and veteran co-anchor Colleen Peck (Diane Keaton) is frustrated. A brilliant idea to hire iconic newsman Mike Pomeroy (Harrison Ford) to join Colleen may be Daybreak's ticket out of the ratings gutter. But Becky's new love interest (Patrick Wilson) says that Mike is the "third-worst person in the world." Can Becky make it work?
Is it any good?
It takes a special kind of actress to make a fairly formulaic movie -- which invites comparisons to the now-classic Broadcast News but can't possibly outdo it -- surprisingly appealing. And that person is Rachel McAdams. She attacks the role of Becky with such authenticity and emotion that we buy her, predictable banter and all. She gives this otherwise-nearly forgettable film soul and carries her weight against the delightful Keaton (who's underused) and memorable Ford (whose character is underexplored). Even Wilson as the token love interest and Jeff Goldblum as Becky's sarcastic network boss have spark.
Too bad, then, that they're all underserved by a story that captures only the typical talking points of any movie that goes behind the scenes of network TV. (Surely, there must be more material to mine than bickering co-hosts and ratings anxiety.) Nevertheless, MORNING GLORY is entertaining, thanks in part to director Roger Michell's peppy pacing and screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna's engaging dialogue (she also penned The Devil Wears Prada). Morning Glory is no Network, no Broadcast News, but for McAdams, it's further proof of her impressive talent.
Families can talk about...
Families can talk about the movie's messages about the media itself. What is it saying about the importance of entertainment vs. news? What about morning shows?
Is Becky a positive role model? Why or why not? What about the other characters?
What keeps Becky going despite all of the setbacks she encounters? Does her attitude work for her?

Windows presentation foundation or WPF is the next generation of UX tool and programming model to create all aspects of the user experience, WPF-based applications let customers visualize information in ways never before possible and capitalize on the power of a PC running Windows Vista.
Empowering developers to deliver innovative user interfaces, by providing a through support for UI, media, documents, hardware acceleration, vector graphics and scalability to different form factors, data visualization, and superior content readability.
WPF enables you to build user experiences that incorporate application UI, documents, and media content including 2D and 3D graphics, vector-based graphics, animation, speech, audio, video, and more.
Developers today are faced with a myriad choice of disparate technologies and APIs, depending on whether they are targeting 2D graphics (GDI or GDI+), user interface (USER32 or Windows Forms), media (DirectShow), or 3D (Direct3D or OpenGL). Windows Presentation Foundation provides a single model that is orthogonal across all these services and allows seamless integration of content within a single application. You can use the same constructs for animation, data binding and styling, regardless of whether you are targeting 2D, 3D or text content.
Windows Presentation Foundation takes full advantage of the powerful Graphical Processing Units that are part of modern PC systems. At its heart, the composition engine is vector-based, allowing for scaling of all output to match the resolution of a specific machine. The rendering architecture uses Direct3D for all output: on video cards that implement DirectX 7 or later in hardware, Windows Presentation Foundation renders output using the GPU wherever possible. In situations where hardware rendering cannot be used, software rendering is available as a fallback. Lastly, a floating-point logical pixel system and 32-bit ARGB color support provide a rich high-fidelity experience that anticipates future technology needs, such as high-DPI displays.
Resolution and device-independent graphics. The Windows Presentation Foundation graphics system uses device-independent units to enable resolution and device independence. Each device independent pixel automatically scales with the system's DPI setting.
Hardware acceleration. The Windows Presentation Foundation graphics system is designed to take advantage of graphics hardware to minimize CPU utilization.
With support for both standalone applications and Web-browser applications, Windows Presentation Foundation offers the best of both deployment models. Web-browser applications run from within Internet Explorer, either occupying the entire window or within an inline frame. They offer the ease of deployment for which Web applications are famed, as well as operating within a partial trust sandbox that protects the client machine against malicious applications. Yet they can still take advantage of the local client hardware and use 3D and media services for the richest Web experience available today. On the other hand, standalone applications are locally installed via ClickOnce or MSI technologies and offer full access to the underlying platform.

NPR's Melissa Block takes note of a trend among politicians to quote the words of William Butler Yeats. Irish-American politicians tend to quote him most frequently. There are complaints that taking Yeats' lines out of context distorts their meaning and that over-using Yeats can devalue the poet's work, reducing his lines to political cliches.

The Nokia Lumia 1520 is the first smartphone in the world to include four high-performance digital mics. This makes it ideal for directional stereo recording and for the best audio experience when watching videos. Here we check out how good the sound quality is on the Nokia Lumia 1520.
When the Nokia Lumia 1020 launched it offered the best photo and video experience possible. What's more, it comes with two high-performance digital microphones as well as Nokia Rich Recording to offer the best audio experience too.
Top 10 reasons to be excited about the Nokia Lumia 1520
With the Nokia Lumia 1520 things have been taken up a notch or two. You'll still find Nokia Rich Recording in place, but with four high-performance digital microphones for directional stereo recordings, which refines the clarity of recordings by rejecting the sounds outside the direction of capture.
The microphones on the Nokia Lumia 1520 have been built into the device in the best ergonomically positions possible, so you won't accidentally cover them with your fingers.
What's more, you can record sound levels more than 6X louder than conventional mics found on rival smartphones. So, your video clips will be better than anyone else. You can capture the full hearing range from the lowest bass to the highest treble (ca. 20Hz to 20 KHz in frequency spectrum).
To put all this to the test, Nokia recorded a live performance by Niila of his song "Bottle of Wine", which was captured using six Nokia Lumia 1520 prototypes.
This live performance was captured using six Nokia Lumia 1520 prototypes. It was initially recorded from a centre position, then filmed from different angles with the other five devices. The video was edited in Adobe Premiere with no adjustments in audio quality.

Grilled Whole Trout With Lemon-Tarragon Bean Salad
This freshwater favorite is a snap on the grill. Grilling with the skin on keeps the fish from falling apart and gives the skin a delightful crispy texture. Enjoy with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc.
- 1/4 cup fresh tarragon, plus 4 whole sprigs, chopped
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon shallot, chopped
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
- 1/4 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, divided
- 1 15-ounce can small white beans, rinsed
- 1/3 cup roasted red peppers, chopped
- 4 cleaned whole rainbow trout (about 5 ounces each)
- 12 thin slices of lemon (1-2 lemons)
- Step 1
- Whisk chopped tarragon, lemon juice, oil, shallot, 1/4 teaspoon salt, sugar and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl until combined. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the dressing; add beans and peppers to the rest and toss to combine.
- Step 2
- Preheat grill to medium-high. Coat a large fish-grilling basket with cooking spray. Stuff each trout with 3 slices lemon and 1 tarragon sprig. Sprinkle inside and out with the remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Place in the basket.
- Step 3
- Grill the fish until the skin is golden and crispy, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Carefully remove the lemon and tarragon, drizzle the fish with the reserved dressing and serve with the bean salad.

Man faces felony trespassing chargeOctober 02,2013Man faces felony
trespassing charge
BENNINGTON A local man is facing a felony charge after a woman told police he came into her home Aug. 29 and trashed it.
Tylor McDonald, 21, of Bennington, was arraigned in Bennington criminal court Monday on a felony count of unlawful trespass into an occupied home. He pleaded innocent and was released without bail.
In an affidavit, Officer Thalia Hudson of the Bennington Police Department said she went to a womans home around 12:35 a.m. Aug. 29 after the woman reported that McDonald had come into her home and flipped over furniture.
The woman told Hudson that McDonald had tried to get into her home but she wouldnt let him in and told him to leave. However, the back window was open and McDonald was able to get inside.
The woman called a friend for help and the friend also told police she saw McDonald in the house.
According to the woman, McDonald flipped the furniture over because he was mad.
McDonald had been served a no trespass, order which forbade him from being at the womans home July 27.
According to Hudson, McDonald was convicted in March of unlawful trespass onto land, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.MORE IN This Just InLOS ANGELES As throngs of Pokemon Go players traipse around to real-world landmarks in...

TravelPod Member ReviewsHotel Club Kawama Varadero
The hotel itself was really lovely, and had a sweet beach. Lots of activities and nice staff. My only two concerns is that its extremely smoky in this hotel and little air conditioning. The smell of cigars and smoke got stuck in everything. Yes it's Cuba but i've never experiened smells that strong anywhere else, including other resorts. My other issue is that the resort is some what out of the way and you have to bus it into the town of Veradero if you want to do any sort of real shopping other then the small mall at the Melia hotel beside. Over all we had a good stay.
This review is the subjective opinion of a TravelPod member and not of TravelPod.com.
Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel Club Kawama Varadero
Nice getaway...
My girlfriend and I had an excellent time down there for 2 weeks. The staff are very friendly and courteous. There was a variety of drinks to choose from and the buffet was ample but repetitive. The beach was awsome; very clear and warm water. The resort also offers a wide variety of "off the resort" tours. Safety was not an issue leaving the resort at any time , day or night. We were at Kawama from Jan 24 to Feb 8/04. We will be returning next year because the staff and the resort itself left us with such a great impression.
This was the best hotel we have ever been to, ideal for couples and single people. The staff are very freindley and the sevice is exellent!
the rooms are very clean and the food is great! We will most definatly return to Club Kawama
Worth the money
Kawama was definitely worth the money- You didn't pay for a 5 star and you aren't getting one. The food is decent, the staff are amazing, especially Anna and Maria in the kids club. Parents there are lots of opportunities for you to have time to yourself with these ladies around. Leobal and Ayelen in "LA Tasca" buffet are amazing and the full body massage is worth the money. The beach is beautiful- alot of space, the grounds are clean and as well are the rooms. The bedding could be updated and the superior rooms really aren't any different from the standard. Good shows at night- the discotech on sight is a blast
Fir a single woman
I went to Kawama Inn in 1986/7?? It was wonderful; without trimmings; very peaceful and family-like. Couldn't recommend anything better for a single, older woman travelling alone. . . it's now called Club Kawama. LR
Solo traveller recommends
As an over 40's woman travelling alone this was a great place to stay.
People from all over the world are easy to meet, but no one bothered you. Excellent staff, nurse available every day except Monday, fun activities, good meals, great breakfasts.Lovely pool and beautiful beach that was usually very calm. Close to other small cafes (if you want to eat after 10 PM)and the lovely Casa de AL is a short walk away.
Quite a long walk, abt 25 min, to the main part of Veradero...but a horse and buggy ride back is just $3. i met many repeat visitors.
I will go back
Just returned from my second trip to Kawama. It was even better then the first. They really pulled out all the stops for guests who return. Flowers in the room,special lobster supper etc.
The beach is amazing and the people are so kind and thoughtful. I loved it and can't wait to return. The staff go above and beyond and really make you feel at home
It is a small resort so not to hard to find your way around,and very safe.
Perfect location, clean rooms, great food, incredible beach
One of the best locations in Varadero, just to the left of the causeway bridge coming in from the airport meaning you are about the first stop from the airport and the last to be picked up on your way back. Win win!!Rooms are either first or second floor cottages, quiet, safe, clean. Star wars air conditioning, flawless beach, excellent meals and the staff are joys. I have been there many times and would recommend it to anyone. There is little in the way of night life as it sort of keeps shifting from trip to trip.
Kawama, lovely hotel!
Hotel Club Kawama is a nice place to be. With friendly staff, nice beach and swimmingpool and beautifull gardens. Even when the hotel is full it's quite quiet! I can recommend the superior rooms. They are close to the main buildings and bigger then the standard rooms. The visitors are from all over the world. Even when you're single you'll be in contact with other people very soon. There's a nice atmosphere.
Cuban holiday
Club Kawama is situated in glorious surroundings and thats just the hotel gardens. Along side a white sandy beach and clear blue sea, Kawama has a great atmosphere and staff that are more than happy to make you feel as comfortable and welcome as you can. Food choice is extensive and superb quality in anyone of the three restuarants or the buffet bar. Rooms are clean, tidy and with air conditioning. If you are reading this review with a view to going i can highly recommend it, and i would certainly visit this hotel and Cuba again.
Cuban charm!!!!!
kawama is the secret gem of varadero. good mix of cuban charm and hospitality, fun staff, and relaxed atmosphere. loved how the rooms are in little houses which you have to walk to, as opposed to taking an elevator in a high rise. lotts of little lizzards running around, and you'll always notice a white shirt clad security keeping an eye out.
for what exactly, i don't know, since it was one of the friendliest, safest, and interesting places i've visited...it can get a little annoying. good mix of people too, canadian, italian, german, spanish, young, older, family, singles. enough ranting and raving....overall, the stay there was great!! (girls beware of cuban boys, in and out of the resort area. you will hear 'i like you' (in a romantic way) atleast 5 times during your stay.
