Angie Sling Back Pumps
Beautifully Cut
I was hesitating on this purchase because honestly, I never heard of the Brand. So for the price I was debating. I ended up going with it because I liked the way the cut looked. Glad I did because its so sleek and feminine. It flatters the foot and looks very well made. Also seemed comfortable, but let me wear them all night before I make this claim! LOL! I am overall happy with my purchase because I was on the search for a signature go to pair of black heels.

Classic Clutch
This clutch is huge
Ok, so usually I wonder why people leave bad or average reviews on the size when the description clearly states the size. Now I know why. This thing is huge! I knew it would be big but it's super bulky as well. It almost looks like an ipad cover with its stiff square structure. Wish it were soft and snuggly, the the size wouldn't matter. Not comfortable under the arm at all. For the price I'm not crazy about it. And the strap isn't adjustable so for me this purchase was a NO. Colors are nice though! Great for a taller/bigger girl, I'm too petite for this one.

Celine Soft Bra
Gorgeous Color
When I received this bra top I almost returned it instantly because I saw it was mesh. For some reason I missed this detail in the description. When I tried it on, I then had to keep it because although there is no lining (when it's cold) it was so comfortable and such a beautiful color. I loved the hint of leopard too. So all in all I give it a 4 because it was pricey (the set). If it were around $30-$38 for this bralette alone it would have been a perfect score.

MM6 Maison Martin Margiela
Small Body Wrap Bag
Not worth the price in my eyes.
I wanted something simple to wear when I'm shopping or on the go. This bag will frustrate me! i put it on, and tried to put my essentials in (cellphone, credit cards ID and lipgloss. No way. There's barely any room at all making you have to take everything out just to find something. For over $200? No way. Not for me. Going back.

Pelle Moda
Hip Sling Back Platform Pumps
Simple & a must have!
These are really nice and simple. Price point is reasonable because these do have a hint of quality. Runs true to size. I love the cut in the front, makes your foot look tiny and very slimming to the leg. Heel is also nice and delicate and not too chunky. I envision wearing these with anything from skinny jeans to a romper. Wish they came in all nude with no scaling or even white! Def a Great buy!

Citizens of Humanity
Avedon Slick Skinny Legging Jeans
Hello Gorgeous!
These jeans ROCK. I went and bought them in denim because of how comfy and amazing they felt on. I did not size up or down and got my true size 26. I haven't had them long enough to comment on the stretching however I plan to take very good care of these. The material def makes it worth the price. Looks like jeans, feels like leggings. A+

Cassia Dress
Cheap material
This dress is cheap for a reason. The buttons on mine popped off while I tried to button it close! And I am 105 soaking wet! The material was far from soft and comfy. The print was ok. I personally think it looked better online.

Riller & Fount
Cookie Draped Front Tank
Not worth the price
In my opinion this top is nothing more than average. I would pay at most $60-80 for this top so I'm thinking about returning.Runs true to size, I got the XS and I'm a B cup 25 inch waist. I got the pink and the color is pretty, just a tad bit more muted in person. Fit is like a typical cowl neck. I really like Helmut Langs cowl necks because they have that quality touch and a magnet that weighs down the scoop neck. This top is nothing special in my opinion. With all the clothes I own, I need to be WOW'ed to keep something.

Gabe Dress
So so cute! But beware runs SMALL
So I lucked out big time! When I saw this dress I was too late and my normal size 2 was sold out. I thought "what the heck" it was so cute I figured I'd try the 4 and tailor it to fit since it was so inexpensive. BOY am I glad I didn't get the 2! The 4 was skin tight on me and I only weigh 105! Good thing for me that I'm petite so the length is also good for me. Don't bother with this dress is you are over 5'2 and size UP. I probably could have even got away with a size 6 and I'm an xsmall and size 0-2 in everything. This dress is so so cute. Hope this helps!

NEW ORLEANS -- Dismissing speculation that Sean Payton may leave New Orleans because of a glitch in his contract, Drew Brees has no doubt he'll be reunited with the suspended Saints coach in 2013.
"I absolutely believe he'll be back," Brees said Monday night after guiding the Saints to a 28-13 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles.
Payton was suspended for the season by the NFL for his role in the bounty scandal. The league has taken issue with a clause in the contract extension he agreed to more than a year ago, which was to have kept him in New Orleans through 2015.
"I haven't seen the report or heard the report," Saints interim coach Joe Vitt said. "I don't want to have any comment, but let me say this: This team loves Sean, and Sean loves this team. This city loves Sean, and Sean loves this city. I think that's a tough combination to beat."
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said Sunday he does not know if Payton might become a coaching free agent after the season.
"The one contract that they sent in to us ... we told them what the issue was," Goodell said. "Now it's up to the team and Sean Payton. So until I get something back, it's up to them."
Payton's agent, Don Yee, did not return a message seeking comment.
According to ESPN, the league objected to Payton being allowed to nix the deal if general manager Mickey Loomis was fired, suspended or left the organization for any reason. Loomis received an eight-game suspension for his involvement in the bounty case and is eligible to return after the Saints (3-5) beat the Eagles.
Payton can return next season, but some wonder if he might be interested in moving to the struggling Dallas Cowboys if he has that option.
The Cowboys (3-5) have been a major disappointment, with a 19-13 loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday only turning up the heat on third-year coach Jason Garrett.
Payton was an assistant head coach with the Cowboys before he took over the Saints in 2006. He has a 67-37 record, including four playoff appearances and New Orleans' first Super Bowl championship, but he kept alive speculation that he might someday return to Dallas by keeping a home in that city.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was asked about the possibility of Payton coaching the Cowboys if he's available.
"I have no idea," he said. "I have no understanding about anything to do with his or the Saints' business or their contracts. I don't have any -- that was news to me."
Jones insisted that he hasn't given up on Garrett, who has a record of 16-16 over three seasons and has yet to lead the Cowboys to the playoffs.
"I have a lot of faith in Jason," Jones said. "Jason's future is ahead of him. I know how hard he works. I like his philosophy, so I've got a lot of confidence, a lot of faith. One of the brightest spots I see is our head coaching and our coaching in the future."
New Orleans safety Roman Harper sees no reason for Payton to leave New Orleans, especially after being linked to the bounty case.
"Why would he not come back? He's got something to prove," Harper said. "There's nothing like having a man with a chip on his shoulder. This is just another way the NFL is trying to get at us. We just have to keep our minds on things we can control, and that's playing football."
But linebacker Scott Shanle sounded more concerned.
"We'd be crazy if we said we weren't worried about it, but at the same time that's out of our control," he said. "We can't do anything about it. We can't let that story and that development sidetrack us from what we're trying to do."
It certainly was a topic before the game, but the Saints quickly brushed it aside. For now, they're worried about saving this season.
"Some of us guys talked about it a little bit, but nothing too serious because we didn't understand what the language is in the contract," Shanle said. "It seemed like it was changing minute by minute. Honestly, there wasn't a whole lot of discussion about it within the team."

Shed looks great but limited selection of shelves, hangars, etc. and inability to purchase additional vertical supports leaves the shed less than desirable. Save your money and just buy direct from Suncast without the Craftsman logo and you can find a better selection

So far this has been a wonderful shed, I looked at several metal and resin buildings before deciding on this "Craftsman" Shed which is manufactured by Suncast. Assembly was a snap, and I put it together in about 5 hours by myself with 20 minutes of help from a friend. I had pre-printed out the directions (I am OCD so I figured why not plan it out ahead of time) and I am glad I did since there was not a book included. I am not sure if it fell out before being delivered or if it is just not included. SUPER IMPORTANT: Build this shed on a concrete slab or on a solid wood structure that is flat. I made the usual mistake of thinking I could work around this and I will tell you it was a terrible idea. I moved the entire project back into the garage mid-build and went and built a base for the project. Please heed this warning. Overall buy the shed if you need it!

Great Shed at a Great Price. A question I had when looking was who made it? Answer is Suncast, I was glad to learn this when I opened the boxes. Suncast stands up to our intense Florida Summer heat year after year. Plan on a day to do this .. the foundation needs to be level so all of the pieces will fit properly. With Termites a problem here for us and NOT wanting to pour a concrete slab I went with large prepoured flat concrete 24" squares available at the local home improvement store. I set these on a base of recycled concrete stones to minimize shifting of the stones and to get them all level under the floor of the shed. The assembly was simple very easy to understand directions and the well made pieces. not a single part needed trimmed or "worked in" a concern from other sheds I looked at. When it was done we had two days of pouring rain it was bone dry inside. I would highly recommend this after the last 3 months of heavy use it both looks and works Great

So before Metallica's Garage Inc, there was Garage Days Re-revisited. The $5.95 EP, ca 1987. Notice it says Re-revisited. That's because the band released a single for Creeping Death in 1984 and the b-side was called Garage Days Revisited by the band because it featured two covers Am I Evil and Blitzkreig. Readers will now point out the use of Revisited in that title and be asking, if there is so much revisiting, where is the original garage days? What readers may not know is Metallica made a very early demo recording called GARAGE DAYS, pre-San Francisco thrash days, pre Cliff Burton and even pre James Hetfield rhythm guitar. This is listed on some fan sites of unreleased demos as Ron McGovney's Garage Demo. And rightfully so. This is not a major release. It sounds like it was recorded on someone's boombox that had a built in mic. Although, a Ron McGovney interview reveals it to be Lars Ulrich's Teac 4-track.

Run Your Windows Partition Without Rebooting
Dual booting is a necessary evil and very inconvenient. What if you could run your windows partition in a virtual machine, so you wouldn't have to worry about rebooting anymore? With VMWare Workstation, you can.
Why do you need to select the entire HD when creating the VM
How come you selected the entire hard drive when you created the new VM? Why not just select the Windows partition, that way you don't have to boot through GRUB (and therefore, presumably, wouldn't have to worry about disabling the grub timer)? Just wondering?
small issue
when i get to the grub menu to select an operating system, I can't arrow down to select windows xp pro, I ca hit c for a command line, but its like vm ware isn't recognizing the arrow keys, any ideas?
Insufficient permission to access file
I am running Ubuntu 8.04 and can't finish creating the VM. I get up to the last step in creating the VM but when i click finish if gives me this message "Insufficient permission to access file". i am creating the file in the default folder. I can create files and folders in that directory. any help or direction toward help would be appreciated.
Insufficient permission to access file
If you are using sudo to install the VM, you could try creating a bash shell as root and then running the installer
malcolm@toshiba:~$ sudo bash
root@toshiba:~# ./VMware-Workstation6.5.1-126130.i386.bundle

Not a necessary evil
Nice article however I do not agree that dual booting is required at all. I, personally, no longer find the need to dual boot. Used to do it a long time ago but only for games. But now, with a considerable number of games available on *nux and wine stabilizing as the days go by, having a windows partition is just a waste of space.
I had no idea this was even
I had no idea this was even possible until I saw the video.
Now I have something to do on my boring Sunday
Dual-booting is a necessary evil
"Dual booting is a necessary evil"... Why? I thought Linux was so amazing, and offered so much freeeeedom, that you'd never need to use M$$$$ again, lest you be construed as hypocrites.
Other NTFS partitions
I have other NTFS partitions that I use on both systems... Do you believe I'll have to unmount those too in order to avoid corruption of data?
Recently I moved to my new apartment.
I couldn't get cable on my computer room, so I bought a wireless router and used my old wireless cards.
One of them (an Encore PCI) wouldn't run on Linux (no drivers). The other was kinda broken (but worked sometimes on Windows).
So I had to do the other way around, run Linux on VMWare that was running on win XP.
VMware had 2 troubles. X was only running at 800x600. I tried a workaround that didn't work (svga.maxWidth = 1280 ...).
And worse, the Ctrl + Alt is a VMware shortcut, so I would have to change my workspace shortcuts.
I gave up and tried VirtualBox. Worked great. It creates the partitions and configures the VM with a wizard and worked better on console (Debian installation was sluggy on VMWare).
You can do all this with VMWare Server and it's free.
One scary moment when I tried this - Windows XP under VMWare needed to reactivate itself. This took a couple of attempts for me but now seems happy in the VMWare and booting live.
Or not...
Great video, but why not use something that's open-source? Virtualbox, Xen, and kvm-qemu come to mind...
Speaking of Xen or kvm-qemu
Speaking of Xen or kvm-qemu (kvm is my fav), they also tend to run faster / more natively because they are using a hypervisor instead of some application which will provide you with, as I mentioned a faster VM to work with, especially if your processor supports virtualization which is almost all recent processors (AMD/Intel).
Today's modular x86 servers are compute-centric, designed as a least common denominator to support a wide range of IT workloads. Those generic, virtualized IT workloads have much different resource optimization requirements than hyperscale and cloud applications. They have resulted in a "one size fits all" enterprise IT architecture that is not optimized for a specific set of IT workloads, and especially not emerging hyperscale workloads, such as web applications, big data, and object storage. In this report, you will learn how shifting the focus from traditional compute-centric IT architectures to an innovative disaggregated fabric-based architecture can optimize and scale your data center.

Free Webinar: Linux Backup and Recovery
Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

American Standard is featured in a short behind-the-scenes article in the Movies section of this week's New York Magazine, where we describe the challenges of shooting in the potty.

]]>To maintain proper light levels I had a full arsenal of Tiffen ND filters on hand to slide into the matte box. If the light levels rose above 5.6 I could bring them down with ND filters. Seems correct - doesn't it? Until we hit our snag.
Anytime we used ND .3 we were fine. The ND did its job and we noticed nothing strange. However, at a particular location, we needed to use the ND .6 filter. It just so happens this location was the same location that our video tap cable was beginning to go and we were monitoring on the green channel only for much of the time (the HVX component connector is terrible). Not having a spare cable on hand we moved forward.
The cable occasionally worked in full color and at one point in the afternoon the script supervisor noticed a color shift. The white walls has a pinkish tint. The green towels were dark magenta (yes, magenta). However, skin tones seem unchanged. The pink shift on the walls was more pronounced in the highlights. Our shoulders slumped as we wondered at what point in the day we slid the filter in place or when the issue started. Luckily, in retrospect, the sequences were all consistent within themselves so we did not lose any footage to this issue.
But the question still stood. What was causing this bizarre and seemingly selective color shift. We spent about a half hour checking over the camera. We could reproduce the issue by sliding the ND filter out and then back in place - the issue was clearly linked to the filter. However, the in camera .9 ND filter did not cause the same shift. So either it was the Tiffen filters or it was the interaction of the Tiffen filters with the HVX.
Move forward a week and we were shooting on a bright sunny day in a bathroom with large windows. We had put ND gels on windows before but this was the first time the intensity of the sun required 1.8 of ND to get it in balance with the interior lighting. After 2 hours of putting up gels we looked at the monitor. Holy smokes - We could not believe it. The light coming throught the windows was now tinted pink. Pull the gels off and it was white. So again, either it was the roscoe gels or it was the interaction of the gels with the HVX. We had to move on and therefore we had to block off the windows and frame them out of the shots. By manipulating the action we managed to get great footage even with this limitation. But the question still remained - Why was this happening?
In posting this issue to many message boards lots of theories came up. People asked about white balance. When the problem occurred we white balanced both before and after the gels/filter was used to no effect. We could white balance to the pink area but the rest of the frame would have been green. Perhaps a camera with a paintbox could have overcome that. We were also asked about the quality of the gels and filters. Roscoe and Tiffen are not top of the line but it is reasonable to expect a good color balance in their materials.
The best explanation I could get was that there is no true ND material. It is only ND relative to the chip or film emulsion that is picking up the light through it. So the internal HVX filters have the proper colormetry and do not cause a color cast. But other materials colormetry will differ and therefore can introduce a color cast.
Here is a thread on DVXuser I started about this issue. It does get a bit heated between another user and myself - but there was a lot of great ideas and input from other people.
Morals of the story. Do not assume ND is truly ND at high amounts for your camera. Always have a spare monitor cable on hand in case the primary dies. Finally, even test the small obvious things such as color temperature when using ND filters.
There are a few obvious advantages to a digital workflow. Most notably is the lack of tapes to track keep a hold of and log. We would shoot our entire feature without touching a single tape (not including the documentary camera). The other notable advantage is that your footage is already digitized, logged with timecode and available to an editing system. While this is true, of course the immaturity of the technology really forced us to figure out how to make the footage immediately available.
Ok - enough with the preamble. Here is the workflow we implemented.
- 4 gig P2 card is loaded into the camera and given a reel number to put on the slate. The card is formatted clean.
- The first shot is slated with the reel number and the shot number identifying the reel.
- Shoot until card is full. For us this amounted to about 10 minutes of footage.
- Pull card and call for new reel. Runner takes card to loader. Loader takes full card and hands off usable card.
- Card is loaded into camera, formatted and the next reel number is put on slate and announced to the script supervisor.
- Loader offloads the P2 card to 2 identical harddrives at the same time. Offload time is the same for 1 usb drive as it is for 2. The bottleneck is not the drive or usb speed.
- Loader then burns the P2 footage to 2 DVDs. This results with the footage being on 2 hard drives and 2 dvds.
Unbreakable rule: We could not force the loader to hand off a card until the footage was verifiably on 2 different locations. It could be the 2 hard drives or the dvds. But until there was redundancy we would have to hold waiting for the offload. This occurred only a handful of times out of the 250 reels we shoot for this film when we were allowing the actors to improvise for entire P2 cards worth of shooting.
The question arises - is 3 locations excessive for the footage. The answer is yes - probably could have done with 2 hard drives and 2 dvd but we wanted location redundancy as well. At the end of a shoot day, one drive and one set of dvds would go home with me and another with the loader. If there were a fire or other problem at one of the locations we would still have a backup of footage.
Reviewing shots on set was relatively easy. We could access any reel on the hard drive with the Panasonic P2 viewer and view the clips. We went through 4 sets of hard drives over the course of the shoot (4 pairs). This meant that on a given day we did not have all the footage with us. This presented a problem when we needed to review a shot that had occurred a long time ago. At times we knew we needed to match a particular shot so we pulled the dvd to bring to set. However, there were times where the workflow left us without a shot we would have liked to review. In retrospect, perhaps one set of hard drives should have traveled with us.
To really get a look at the dailies we loaded the clips into Avid at our editing suite. This allowed us to search easily through the clips, output full resolutions frames and clips for inspection and let us try some sample edits. The key thing is that all of this was available to us without digitizing a single clip (although we did need to copy the clips onto our media drive). In addition, the script supervisors notes immediately matched up with the shots. Every shot is a separate file so cross referencing her notes with the timecoded shots was straightforward.
I will cover working with Avid and P2 footage in a later entry.

Who will be the next top spiritual writer? The global search is on for the next book that will expand the human consciousness - who will it be?
The Opportunity of a Lifetime
Let's face it, everyone wants to be an author today, and there are many thousands of people who are in the process of writing a spiritual book. The reality is that most publishers don't want to take a risk with unknown writers, and self-publishers are finding it much harder to get space on the shelves of most bookstores. That is the reason we have put together this incredible program.
Not only will one person be offered a publishing contract from a renowned publisher (Hampton Roads), but everyone will get the chance to get their work out there to be read and appreciated. Even if they don't win the Hampton Roads contract, this could be a breakthrough opportunity.
The contest – in four stages opened 29th March – the first stage requires all budding authors to present a book promo and network to as many people as possible in order to get as many votes as possible to push them into the second round.
I don't know how many kiwi writers are entered as far as I know I may be the only one
For your viewing pleasure here is my entry
If you like, register to vote and then pass on to your friends and networks – many thanks to you all in advance - the voting ends in 2 weeks and then round two begins - the top 150 authors go on to the next round

Minority relationships highlighted at DNC events
September 4, 2012 Leave a comment
By Lauren Appelbaum and Melissa Weiss
Charlotte, N.C., Sept. 4 – The Jewish population is small in America – approximately two percent of the U.S. population. However, Jewish Americans remain a key electoral demographic for both parties.
And the American Jewish Committee (AJC) – a nonpartisan organization hosting educational events during both conventions – is putting the spotlight on coalitions between the Jewish community and other communities including Mormons, African Americans, Indians and Latinos.
During the Republican National Convention, Mormon and faith leaders said Israel ties are valued as part of Mormon-Jewish cooperation. Today, as AJC focused on both Black-Jewish and Indian-Jewish relations, both panels stressed that each community has much in common with Jewish Americans, and that each constituency has support – in most cases – for Israel.

Hello all,
I followed the excellent installation instructions and setup a fresh install of Mindtouch core 10.1.3 from source, running on an EC2 micro Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit instance.
I have 50-100 odd pages in an old Mindtouch wiki hosted at a different site running dekiwiki 9.08 on a gentoo linux machine.
I want to move all the data over and preserve the URL structure.
What is the best way to achieve this. Do I need to work directly in the database layer or is there another way to migrate all the pages over.
Thanks f

For students in the College of Arts and Science, MAP courses create a broad foundation on which you build your chosen field of study, your major. For students in other undergraduate divisions at NYU, the MAP has been adapted to provide a liberal arts core for a curriculum directed toward professional education. Because it is shared by students across different schools, majors, and programs, the MAP is also sometimes called the "general education" curriculum. Read More

Fundamental to the success of your ORM strategy means staying on top of the "buzz creep" - this means tracking every incident of online mention of your company name, your staff, brands, products/services, etc. - before if finds you. Using news alerts to monitor your reputation can work if you use it strictly as a monitoring barometer to help understand i) the timeline and delivery of incident details to the inboxes of Web audiences, and; ii) tracking how quickly the news can impact any rise or drop on first page Web search results.
The main drawback to solely using news alerts as an ORM strategy (a point that seems obvious to many of us, but one that can never be overstated) is that they don't cover the entire online terrain. Our experiences suggest that Web audience approval or disenchantment occurs most in places where debate on an issue or topic has the most potential to flourish and involve input, and although mainstream media has taken significant steps in recent years to allow input on news articles and stories, the content controls are a major reason why discussion and debate continues to happen elsewhere.
Another important consideration is that mainstream media, intentionally or not, has historically excluded some of the groups and associations most actively involved in using online environments to carry their message. For example, environmental groups may choose online communications because it allows them a control over the theme and message of their initiative - a control mechanism that is far less achievable in mainstream media coverage that would sooner point out the consequences of the groups actions (past or present) than focus on the message and relevance of their cause.
Taking this example one step further, like it or not, the debate to determine whether a newly launched campaign is 'eco-chic' or an eco-sham will be settled by the Web audiences, and the choice of where to debate the issue could find fertile ground on a MySpace blog maintained by a member of the activist group, and may eventually even make its rounds to a MySpace group or forum discussion. Whether or not those discussions transpire into any planned action outside your commercial establishment, our experiences inform us that using news alerts for ORM will mean you will only be apprised of the situation after it has happened.
As well, when we are speaking of online attention that can make or break a brand, keeping an eye on discussions that may lead to a planned protest are more likely to happen on a blog, a message board/forum, or social network site. The most striking evidence of this phenomenon is the little mainstream coverage received by the recent Energy Action Coalition's Fossil Fools Day initiative. For this reason and many others, ORM strategies must go beyond vanity searches, news alerts or a collection of feeds.
Information, news, allegations, innuendo - all traveling at warp speed.
People everywhere are linked, communicating and deliberating with hyper-connectivity.
So how does business stay in control? By recalibrating the corporation's sense of reputation and using those same communications technologies to its advantage.

Google wants to get Glass on sale by end of this year for less than $1,500
Google is looking to get a "fully-polished" version of Glass on sale by the end of this year. The search giant has said that the augmented reality headset will cost "less than $1,500" when it eventually goes on sale. The headset has already been available for pre-order for $1,500, though those versions aren't the same as what will be released to the general public.
As with all technology, the early adopters end up paying a premium to remain an early adopter. The Project Glass headset was announced last year and got a demonstration at Google I/O. The headset will be able to record pictures and video, provide directions, and much more, all controlled by your voice.
