42nd Annual Dare Days Spectacular
Posted by Brindley Beach Vacations and Sales | Sunday, June 4, 2017
Old Enough to Know Better, performing on the steps of the Dare County Arts Council Gallery.
Every once in a while the weather gods smile in perfect timing with an event, and Saturday for the 42nd Annual Dare Days in Manteo the weather gods must have been smiling ear to ear.
It would be hard to imagine a more perfect day for an outdoor event that we had on Saturday. Brilliant sunshine, temperatures never really got above 89, and there was a nice breeze off Shallowbag Bay just in case it did start to get warm.
Of course the real story is Dare Days, an amazing way to welcome in the summer on the Outer Banks. There was a cooking competition, an unboat race…if it floats and it's not a boat, it can be entered…and lots of live music.
The lineup for music was so massive there's no way to list everything.
For music, The Ramble, a new group but really worth checking out; Jonny Waters has been around for a while but his driving country rock sound is great. Old Enought to Know Better does an amazing job with classic rock. EZ Malone was on hand as well. EZ can often be seen playing in front of various businesses in spring and summer. He's a really nice guy and a very talented musician.
Of course all of that is personal taste.
There were also rides for kids; Kitty Hawk Kites brought their portable climbing wall. There was fresh squeezed lemonade, funnel cakes, hot dogs, hamburgers…it was a street fair and it was fun.
Speaking of fun, we're looking forward to finally getting into our new Brindley Beach Vacations Corolla offices. Grand opening will be June 12. Mark the date on your calendars.

Courageous Women of the FamilyJanuary 10, 2009 at 18:25 | Posted in Amore di Italia, ancestry, family history | Leave a comment

Courage of Our Women
Watching news reports of the missiles and bombs in Gaza has been leading me to reflect on the women of our family and how remarkable they were. Regardless of whether one is pro-Israeli or pro-Palestinian, one would have to be made of stone to not have compassion for the women and children of both sides caught up in the current hostilities and wars.
My own mother faced my father going off to the South Pacific in WWII with the American Navy. She was left home to work and care for their infant daughter. Cell phones and Internet email were not options then. Regular mail – handwritten (or the occasional typed) letters were slow to arrive and usually blacked out in many lines by the censors.
My mother-in-law saw the same war as a victim of location. She lived in Itri, Italy – a small town at that time located midway between Roma and Napoli. That meant all armed forces no matter whose marched through and bombed their way through Itri just as they had since before the Romans! The family home was in the old part of Itri up the slopes near the castle and the old church, Santa Maria. Fortunately during one of those bombing raids, Concetta heard the planes approach, and ran outside to the archway of the church when the bomb struck, destroying the house and leaving her with concussion deafness. Family along with several other families moved to the cave near her farm. It was safer for the families than the center of town but even with the farms, families were starving. Finally Francesco (my father-in-law) was able to sneak to a German encampment after one of the bombing raids. There he found horses killed by the blasts and butchered them, taking the hind quarters back to the caves to feed the families.
All the years growing up, Valentino rarely heard his mother speak of those times. I certainly did not hear the stories from her years later either. She never complained that life was unfair. It was a fact of life that she had to deal with at the time and she did what was necessary for her family to survive. No televisions crew came to televise their stories, no reporters wrote glowing words to invoke reader sympathies. There was no UN food team or Red Cross clothing drive. She kept the family together and fed them and took them to church and gave them the values of God, family, and Italy to carry through their lives.
I walked the bombed out ruins that linger abandoned today in Italy. The rough edges are softened by wild vines and grass and moss clinging to the rubble everywhere one walks. I visited old family homesteads and an ancient concentration camp further north in Italy. I read poignant tombstones in local cemeteries. And I was dumbstruck at the sight of rows of white crosses at Avellino. So much loss and heartache on all sides. Would I have been able to be as strong and courageous as Concetta? Could I have faced what she did and still have enough love and hope to care for, nurture, and encourage my children? I wonder? But I am so grateful she did.

Use the list below to choose the right adenoviral product for your research
Constitutive systems are available with or without fluorescent reporters. Universal systems that allow you to clone and express any entire expression cassette.
A tetracycline-inducible system is as easy to use as the constitutive systems—the Tet-On 3G transactivator protein and the PTRE3G controlled gene of interest are contained on the same adenoviral vector. Achieve up to 3,000-fold induction using this system.
Not all HEK 293 cell lines are created equal. The Adeno-X 293 cell line is a subclone of HEK-293 selected on the basis that it enables the efficient rescue, high-titer amplification, and titration of all E1/E3-deleted adenovirus vectors.
Save time and effort during adenovirus production using this simple and rapid test for the status of adenovirus rescue even before cytopathic events are observed, then determine the optimal time for harvest and produce the highest adenovirus yield.
Use a fast and simple quantitative PCR kit to measure adenovirus genome titer.
Use a hexon-specific antibody to label infected cells. Each stained cell corresponds to a single infectious unit.
Maxi scale purification uses Luer-Lok syringes to purify lysate from up to 5 x 15 cm plates, and yields ≤ 1 x 1012 adenoviral particles.
Mega scale purification uses a GENIE Plus syringe pump to purify lysate from up to 25 x 15 cm plates, and yields ≤ 1 x 1013 adenoviral particles.

Building on the Land: Works by Lorelle Otis Thomas
Lorelle Otis Thomas Building With Mixed Media, 2011 Transparent Watercolor 17.5" x 24" Loan courtesy of the artist
Date and TimeMonday, November 12, 2012
- Red Wall Gallery, Lake Onterio Hall, Allendale
When Lorelle Otis Thomas, Professor of Graphic Design and Illustration at Grand Valley State University, began this new series of paintings, she realized she had a problem. Her reference photo had not adequately captured the shape of one of the subject buildings she intended to paint. Since it was not possible to travel back to the original site of the building, she used Google Maps Street View to capture the view she sought. This added a surprising new dimension to her work.
This series of artwork reveals the artist's physical and virtual discovery of architecture and landscapes across the United States. The pieces reflect her love for architectural design and a newfound appreciation for early American architecture and the organic and available materials used in their creation. On display until December 5, 2012.
GVSU Art Gallery, 616-331-2563
This event also occurred on 11/5/2012, 11/6/2012, 11/7/2012, 11/8/2012, 11/9/2012, 11/13/2012, 11/14/2012, 11/15/2012, 11/16/2012, 11/19/2012 and 10 others

Back in November I had done a review on some of the yummiest vegan cheesecake I have ever had! And let me tell you, when I need my cheesecake fix, I head on over to the Natural Grocers store here and get some really awesome cheesecake!!! I can eat a whole piece by myself, and not even feel guilty about it later!! I love the cheesecakes from Earth Cafe and I am so excited about the giveaway for my readers!! Now Valentines Day is full of yummy goodies and desserts to sweeten up your sweet heart, and the wonderful thing about the cheesecakes from Earth Cafe is that the cakes are organic, vegan, and gluten free!! What a better way to show your love how much you care then giving them a goody or just sharing your goody with them that is not only so amazingly tasty, but not a bad treat either!! Some people out there are skeptics about vegan foods and let me tell you, when I had got the sample cakes I did not tell my husband that they were vegan. He seems to think that if it says vegan it wont be any good, I proved him wrong. He too fell in love with these amazing cakes, and since his first bite of a vegan cheesecake, he has opened his eyes to other vegan products as well!! With that said, yes the cheesecakes are amazing. For Valentines Day this year, the wonderful people from Earth Cafe would like to give 2 of my awesome readers a whole cheesecake of their choice!!!

Fluorescent_Proteins_and_Reporters >
Fluorescent_Proteins >
Fusions >
Living Colors mCherry has been successfully fused to many proteins and widely used for quantitative imaging techniques including fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). mCherry is one of the Fruit Fluorescent Proteins, which were developed in Dr. Roger Tsien's lab (1–3) by directed mutagenesis of mRFP1, a monomeric mutant of DsRed (4).
Living Colors tdTomato (also developed in Dr. Roger Tsien's lab) is a genetic fusion of two copies of the dTomato gene (4) which was specifically designed for low aggregation. Its tandem dimer structure plays an important role in the exceptional brightness of tdTomato. Because tdTomato forms an intramolecular dimer, it behaves like a monomer, and has been used successfully for N- and C- terminal fusions. tdTomato's emission wavelength (581 nm) and brightness make it ideal for live animal imaging studies. tdTomato has been detected as deep as 1 cm below the surface (5).
Living Colors DsRed-Express is a rapidly maturing variant of Discosoma sp. red fluorescent protein with mutations that enhance its solubility, reduce its green emission, and accelerate its maturation (6). DsRed-Express2 has even higher solubility, and was designed to be better suited for cell and stem cell applications (7).
Living Colors DsRed-Monomer is a true monomeric mutant of our red fluorescent protein from Discosoma sp. reef coral, which makes it the optimal choice for use as a red fluorescent fusion tag. DsRed-Monomer has been expressed as a fusion with a large panel of diverse proteins with diverse functions and subcellular locations. The localization of the resulting tagged protein was monitored, and all the tested proteins localized properly.
With the pDsRed-Monomer-Hyg-N1/C1 and pAcGFP1-Hyg-N1/C1 vectors, you can establish stable cell lines coexpressing AcGFP1 and DsRed-Monomer fusion proteins, by selecting with both hygromycin and neomycin. Target genes of interest can be easily transferred from our standard pDsRed-Monomer-N1/C1 and pAcGFP1-N1/C1 vectors containing the neomycin selection cassette into the corresponding hygromycin-resistant (Hygr) N1 or C1 vectors, because the two vector sets contain identical multiple cloning sites.
Living Colors DsRed2 and AsRed2 retain the benefits typical of red fluorescent proteins, such as a high signal-to-noise ratio and distinct spectral properties for use in multicolor labeling experiments.
Living Colors mStrawberry is a Fruit Fluorescent Protein which was developed in Dr. Roger Tsien's lab (1-3) by directed mutagenesis of mRFP1, a monomeric mutant of DsRed (4). It's well-tolerated as a fusion protein in a wide variety of applications.

Nearly 25,000 km2 of invaluable natural expanse have been added to the Natura 2000 network, the European Commission reports. This network of protected sites is the EU's primary tool in the fight to conserve Europe's rich biodiversity.
The Commission has now formally approved the inclusion in the network of a further 235 sites, proposed by Member States for recognition as "Sites of Community Importance". Member States will have six years to put the necessary measures in place to protect these sites.
The latest update concerns 20 Member States and covers all nine of the network's bio-geographical regions – the Alpine, Atlantic, Black Sea, Boreal, Continental, Macaronesian, Mediterranean, Pannonian and Steppic regions. Natura 2000 now covers 768,000 km2 (17.9 %) of the EU landmass and more than 217,000 km2 (approx. 4 %) of its seas.
The most significant addition this year is the UK's designation of Dogger Bank (12,330 km2), a shallow sea area featuring submerged sandbanks in the central part of the North Sea. Together with adjacent sites from Germany and the Netherlands, this creates a vast transboundary Natura 2000 site covering over 18,000 km2. Dogger Bank was primarily designated for its highly productive sandbank habitats, which are important spawning and nursery grounds for many commercial fisheries. The designation will facilitate the coordinated management of the area, including joint efforts by the Member States concerned to develop appropriate fisheries measures.

Aquafina Major League Baseball Pitch, Hit & Run program returns in 201103/24/2011 11:06 AM ET
Major League Baseball Properties and Aquafina today announced the 2011 Aquafina Major League Baseball Pitch, Hit & Run, the "Official Youth Skills Competition of Major League Baseball," is underway with over 4,000 competitions planned to take place across North America. For a second year, a nationwide Girls Softball Division will be part of the program which allows girls to compete and advance separately from the boys throughout the competition, including the National Finals.
In 2010, the youth skills program reached more than 680,000 boys and girls between the ages of seven and 14, providing an integrated competition that recognizes individual excellence in core baseball and softball skills. Aquafina, the "Official Bottled Water of Major League Baseball," is in its fourth year sponsoring the grassroots program following its sister brand, Pepsi, the "Official Soft Drink of Major League Baseball," which was the title sponsor between 2002 and 2007.
Pitch, Hit & Run (PHR) invites youth to demonstrate their skills, competing in pitching, hitting and running abilities. PHR participants can advance through four levels of competition, beginning at the local level, which can be hosted by organizations, leagues, or volunteers within a community, and continuing through sectional and team competitions. All 30 MLB Clubs will host team championships at their ballparks on weekends from May 28 through June 26. The top competitors nationwide from each age group (7-8, 9-10, 11-12 and 13-14) will advance to the 2011 Aquafina Major League Baseball Pitch, Hit & Run National Finals during MLB All-Star Week in Phoenix, AZ.
"The Aquafina Pitch, Hit & Run program is a fun way for young people to improve their skills and remain active," said Lou Koskovolis, Senior Vice President, Corporate Sales and Marketing, Major League Baseball. "Growing youth participation in baseball and softball is important to Major League Baseball and our Clubs. Thanks to the support of Aquafina, the Pitch, Hit & Run program continues to bring the games of baseball and softball to more boys and girls every year.""Aquafina is excited to once again sponsor the Major League Baseball Pitch, Hit & Run program," said Jeff Dubiel, Vice President, Sports Marketing for PepsiCo Beverages Americas, which markets Aquafina. "Over the years this program has inspired millions of young people to lead more healthy, active lives - and have fun doing it."
This is the 15th year MLB has run a youth skills program. Information regarding dates, times and locations of local competitions as well as entry forms and other materials for the 2011 Aquafina Major League Baseball Pitch, Hit & Run initiative are available online at www.MLB.com/PHR

Panini Sandwhich Recipes
Panini Sandwich Recipe (Grilled Cheese and Spinach Panini)
If not made properly, paninis can turn soggy and unappealing. The key is to choose a dense sandwich bread and apply a thin layer of butter to seal the outside and create a nice crust. The filling is up to you. In general, I like to use layers of different colors. I used a parsley-caper flavored cream cheese, roasted bell peppers, sliced mozzarella, sautéed mushrooms, spinach and sweet basil.
The girls have been wanting to have a picnic for quite some time, but the weather here in Northern California has not been very accommodating. They've also had a craving for paninis, and luckily the weather this Memorial Day weekend has been spectacular, so it was time to scratch their itch. It was also a great opportunity to teach the girls about the art of making sandwiches. I made a pitcher of saffron lemonade to go with the sandwiches, and we all sat out in our vegetable garden and marveled at how much the fruit trees have grown. It's been a wet spring, and the trees look unbelievably healthy. It looks like we're going to have a lot of mulberries and donut peaches in our future!

Boulder will reach out to the private sector to see if it can finally find the right idea to develop the long-vacant "civic use pad" -- the slab of concrete sitting next to the St. Julien Hotel.
However, finding that partner will require a flexible definition of "civic use," and, even then, there might be too many restrictions to make a deal happen, officials said.
The Boulder City Council late Tuesday night unanimously approved a request for information to assess the interest among developers in partnering with the city and St. Julien to build something on the site near the corner of Ninth Street and Canyon Boulevard, which was set aside in 1995.
The site plan for the area that called for construction of a hotel and convention facilities was modified to require that 20 percent of developed floor space be dedicated to a civic use.
The underground parking garage was finished in 2002, and the St. Julien Hotel was completed in 2003, but the 11,000-square-foot concrete slab on the southeast corner of the site -- capable of supporting a 37,000-square-foot building -- has remained vacant.
Over the years, three prior task forces have tried to tackle the civic use issue, and ideas for the space have included a science museum and an arts facility.
In 2011, the current task force suggested a "layer cake" approach where three levels of the building could house three uses -- including a possible art-house movie theater -- with a private use generating money for the public use.
There has also been increased emphasis on working with the St. Julien on the project and a redefinition of "civic use" to "civic benefit."
Molly Winter, director of Downtown and University Hill Management and Parking Services for the city, said the two most likely uses that have been floated are a ballroom and event center for fundraisers and an interactive science museum.
If the site is not developed by 2020, ownership reverts to the St. Julien.
Councilman George Karakehian urged the city to take as broad a definition as possible of "civic benefit," including a use that would generate sales tax for the city.
Bruce Porcelli of St. Julien Partners, said the site continues to present barriers to development and reminded the City Council that it is not a city-owned property. However, he said St. Julien Partners supports the request for information.
"If it helps uncover a civic use that meets all the parameters and that people can really get excited about, that's great," he said.
The request for information process should begin early next month, with submissions due by mid-April and a review scheduled for May.
The request seeks "qualified, experienced developers or development teams" and asks them what financing and development scenarios could realize the project, what incentives would be needed to make a successful mixed-use project and what obstacles would need to be overcome and how.
City officials said they hope the request will generate a partner and a viable idea to develop the site, but if there is limited response, that also helps the city know how to proceed.
"We need to be realistic that we're going to be lucky to pull this rabbit out of the hat," Councilwoman Suzanne Jones said.

An Evening of Very Short Plays: SOLD OUT
'An Evening of Very Short Plays', by the Turner Hall River Rats for the Arts, performed to a sold out crowd at Turner Hall Sunday evening. Dinner catered by the Settlers Inn provided courses throughout the evening, while three minute plays were performed.
River Rats member Meredith Ludwig said just over 100 people attended the event, including the actors, playwrights and dinner staff. The event, which included enough seating for 80 people, quickly sold out the week prior.
"This event has been enjoyed in the past and seemed to be go over well Sunday night," Ludwig said.
Performers and writers for the event included Boonville High School students.
"It's also great that we get to work with Jill Campbell's theatre students at Boonville High School. These students were writers, actors and one was one of our directors," she said.
The three minute plays allowed a number of actors and actresses to play an assortment of characters.
"The actors love it because they get to play so many parts and it's not a huge time commitment for them like doing an actual feature length play," she said.
Ludwig also said it's always good for writers to hear their work read after only hearing it in their heads during the creative process.
"I think this event demystifies theatre, which can sometimes be a bit intimidating. When your neighbor writes a play you kind of want to go check it out," Ludwig said.

The Boulder County Coroner's Office has identified the body of a 44-year-old man found Monday north of Magnolia Road near Nederland as that of Timothy Schall, of Highlands Ranch, according to a news release issued Friday.
It appears that Schall was the same man whose body was recovered by rescue workers on Monday afternoon following a 2-day search for a missing person in the area.
Officials at 5:53 p.m. Jan. 20 began searching for a missing 44-year-old Douglas County man who reportedly was in unincorporated Boulder County near Nederland, according to the Boulder County Sheriff's Office.
At 6:15 p.m. on Jan. 20, deputies located the missing man's vehicle in the 11400 block of Magnolia Road, and immediately began to search the surrounding area on foot before dark conditions and rugged terrain forced them to suspend their efforts for the night.
The search resumed Monday morning with the help of Nederland police, volunteers from Rocky Mountain Rescue and Front Range Rescue Dogs.
At 2:30 p.m. Monday, searchers found a body matching a description of the missing man, according to officials.
Investigators indicated there were no signs of foul play.
An autopsy of Schall's body has been completed, according to the coroner's office. A determination in the cause and manner of Schall's death are pending further investigation.

NEW YORK - The Columbia softball team will play its final two non-conference games of the year at Lehigh on Tuesday, April 23. Game one of the doubleheader is slated for a 3 p.m. start.
The Lions (21-21) took the final game of their four-game series at Princeton, 3-2, on Sunday. Sophomore Alix Cook continues to be a model of consistency, recording a hit in all six games last week to raise her average to .364 on the year. Junior Emily Caruthers also reached a milestone in game one against the Tigers, stealing the 28th base of her career to set Columbia's all-time record.
The Mountain Hawks (29-14) are winners of their last six contests, four by shutout. Becca Bliss has tossed three-straight two-hit shutouts and is 16-6 on the year with a 1.64 ERA. Morgan Decker is the team's top offensive threat, hitting .417 with eight dingers and 39 RBI.
Columbia and Lehigh have already faced each other three times this season, with the Mountain Hawks claiming 2-of-3 thus far. However, the Lions won the last meeting, 3-1, on March 15 at the Rebel Spring Games on an Emily Snodgrass three-run blast. Lehigh is 5-2 all-time against the Lions.

Carrie Fisher's 21-year-old daughter Billie Lourd will appear in "Star Wars: Episode VII," in flashback scenes as Princess Leia.
Latino Review -- which, for some reason, gets a lot of "Star Wars" scoops -- reports Lourd will make her acting debut in the film.
Sounds like the hairbuns will be making a comeback.
Lourd is the daughter of Fisher and Hollywood agent Bryan Lourd. She's the 57-year-old Fisher's only child.
British publications The Sun and Daily Mail have reported Lourd joined her mother on the set in June.
Despite Harrison Ford suffering a broken leg that will delay filming for two weeks in August, the film is still scheduled to be released Dec. 18, 2015.

Solicitations for money seem to be increasing.
Are you bombarded through the mail, email, or your phone to Give? Most of the solicitations sound like good causes, but some are ridiculous. Do you really believe someone in Nigeria needs your help getting an inheritance out of Nigeria and will split it with you if you will just tell him your bank account number so he can deposit his newly found fortune in your account?
Or, do you believe you have won a contest you never entered, but you have to pay a fee to collect?
How do you know the fine sounding group that is asking you for a donation to "help" children, wounded vets, policemen, firemen, or any number of noble causes---how do you know that group exists? Maybe it exists, but how much of the money it collects actually goes to the "cause?" How much goes to the salary of the CEO or to more fund raising?
Just because they send you something you don't need and did not ask for, doesn't mean you have to write a check.
There are many worthy causes in your own community that can use your help. And you likely know who runs the charity and who they help. Think local charity so you can check it out.
There are some national and international causes that do valuable work. But before you give, check them out on Charitynavigator.com. I was educated and disappointed by checking out some well known charities when I read how much they pay their CEO and what percentage of gifts actually goes to the stated cause. Information helps make wise decisions.

AGD hairlite trigger frame
AGD trifold trigger frame
lol Necro Prancer
True some people on here are probably 'sucking' up. Keep in mind though that another way to enter the drawing besides posting a potential name is to post something nice.
That and ever think perhaps it's not just sucking up, but the truth? For example, I think most of us in the forum can say that we do appreciate AGD's dedication and care for it's customers. That's it.
RT Pro - Chrome Powerfeed Right
Armageddon 68/4500
KAPP Chrome Apoc Drop Forward
12 vt Revolution

The "Quik Rip Grip"

Just an idea, we all need to conserve our mind's power , so when the frame comes out we can use all our mind power to figure out the quickest route to our local store to buy it !

Mine would probably make more sense if my signature showed up.
If you're ever at a tourney in southern Ontario, look for my team in the rookie division. We're called pope on a rope, and we will be wearing shirts and ties, and being really sportsmanlike.

AGD Rules
AGD ROCKS! NUFF SAID!, man i need these brownie points!
the X frame
"A" Frame
I really liked the earlier idea of the name "Gemini"
But I'd also like to comment on AGD polling on the board for names. Even if they don't use them, they understand more of what their market wants in a name. I think it's great that they're getting their markets feeling for what they what... unless they get too much research and call it the "Edsel"
Personally, I always like things with Names, I want thing that have reasons while they're named. Stories behind those reasons. Except cars,... Cars should have cryptic letter/number combinations
Mach 45
Maxim 45

Lindsay Lohan is suing the makers of popular video game "Grand Theft Auto" for allegedly appropriating her image without permission.
She should look at the bright side -- at least someone is paying attention to her.
Lohan contends she was the model for a character named Lacey Jonas.
Like the "Mean Girls" star, Jonas is affiliated with the Hotel Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood, "a place where the plaintiff once lived and often frequents," according to the civil suit filed in Manhattan on Wednesday.
The suit reportedly says Lohan wants unspecified monetary damages from gamemaker Take-Two Interactive.
As the New York Post points out, Lohan's filing doesn't mention that she skipped out on a $46,000 bill at Chateau Marmont in May 2012. I don't know if that's in the "Grand Theft Auto" story line, as I'm too mature to play violent video games.
As far back as December, Lohan's people -- I'm assuming she still has those -- were saying they wanted to sue Take-Two, after the company released the fifth version of the game in September.
The gamemaker has not commented on the suit.
The suit alleges Take-Two used Lohan's name without her permission to promote the game, announcing "to the general public and media venues that the game features a mission where the plaintiff's look-alike asks another character to take her home and escape the paparazzi."
And since Lindsay Lohan is the only celebrity stalked by paparazzi, they must mean her.
The game's cover also features a curvy blonde in a red bikini taking a selfie and flashing a peace sign -- which is apparently identical to a picture of Lohan doing the same thing in a pink swimsuit.
I'm no legal scholar but ... really?
That picture and others "incorporate her likeness, clothing, outfits, clothing line products, ensemble in the form of hats, hair style, sunglasses, jean shorts worn by (Lohan) ... before the release of the GTA V video game," the suit alleges.
The suit claims Lohan is "recognized in social media and has been a celebrity actor, regularly depicted in television, tabloids, blogs, movies, fashion related magazines, talk shows for the past 15 years." It also apparently points out other companies pay Lohan for using her likeness, while Take-Two, a "multibillion-dollar business," has not paid her a cent.

A creative direction & styling job I did two years ago for PASTEL in Istanbul.
Heels, no less than 10 centimeters. Always. They're kind of glued to my feet. I prefer clutches over totes, because what would a girl need more to carry with her, than a Chanel lipstick, and a bankcard.
Coffee at café de Flore, and tea & macarons at Ladurée. A stroll in my back yard, Les Jardins de Luxembourg, where one can find me daydreaming about La Belle Epoque, at least once a day.
Always carrying a copy of The picture of Dorian Gray with me, and when the going gets tough, Strawberries & Nutella cheer me up.
Wardrobe mantra: Dress-up-dress-up-dress-up.
Oh, and I do work. In fashion of course.
P.S. You can always call me for a glass of bubbles...

Ben Krahn's Remarkable Wizardry
Hopefully by now you've had the opportunity to watch Blood Wizard's new full-length video Wizard Bloody Wizard, which premiered on Thrashermagazine.com last Friday, February 15th. This 34-minute video not only features the raw skate talent of its diverse and skilled team of wizards, but it also celebrates those that have been shredding on their magic rolling boards for quite some time.
Case in point, the ninja-like talent of the Northwest's very own Ben Krahn is something remarkable to contemplate. His grasp on skating is truly unique with the select tricks and lines that he puts together both on the streets and in the parks. This is blue collar skateboarding. Like the 97% of us, Ben does it for the fun, enjoyment, and love of it. He had his years traveling the planet, doing demos and entering contests with his skating backed by endorsements, but time marches on. And Ben (like most of us) is well aware that he can't earn a living skateboarding forever.
Nonetheless, Ben works a solid job, has a family and continues to rip in his late thirties. This is some of his best stuff yet and proves that skateboarding is something that you can continue to do (barring any heavy injuries) as long as you put in the time and effort.
To make it clearer for our viewers, Ben was very willing and appreciative to share his 8-minute bonus part with us, which appears after the credits roll in Wizard Bloody Wizard. For those of us close to Ben, we know how much time and effort that he and filmer Dave Hupp put in to create this cinematic gem. To be specific, these guys dedicated the better part of three years to collaborate on spots, tricks and stack a ton of clips. They didn't have the benefit of a travel budget so the majority of what you see was filmed in Portland, Oregon and the surrounding areas.
Also, the soundtrack was written, played, and recorded by Ben at home on a digital 4-track recorder; his pal Karl Hubble mixed the song for the video.
So kick back and crack open your favorite beverage, and ingest the next 8 minutes of skateboarding with Ben Krahn. Our souls are inspired and our minds are blown. Cheers Ben!
