Nothing says summer quite like the Hamptons. Now in its 17th year, the season's staple design event, the Hampton Designer Showhouse benefiting Southampton Hospital, continues to inspire with innovative interiors from the nation's top talents. A striking Shingle-style house built by Bodenchak Design & Build in Sag Harbor, New York, served as the setting for the 2016 edition. Join us for a look at the third stop on our annual national showhouse tour.

Foyer by Suzanne McGrath & Lauren McGrath
A custom Swedish-inspired rug provides most of the color in Suzanne and Lauren McGrath's foyer design. Metrie supplied the wall paneling. A framed ocean photograph by Nathan Coe hangs above a distressed demilune table. "The bespoke wooden lamp evokes that organic, relaxed feeling we were looking for," Suzanne says. A hat rack pays homage to the quintessential Hampton accessory while Garnet Hill's woven basket acts as a catchall for flip-flops and towels.

Great Room by Kate Singer
The Ballard Designs sofa, wing chairs, bench, and footstool form a conversation area around a vintage-iron coffee table while hand-painted de Gournay panels crown the mantel. Pale-blue floral draperies flank French doors that reveal pool views and lush greenery. A banquette, round pedestal table, and pair of Louis XVI side chairs—all by Ballard Designs—provide the perfect spot to sip coffee. The shapely chandelier from Circa Lighting caps the elegant assembly.

Living Room by Melanie Turner
"Classic Hamptons with a '70s bohemian vibe," is how Melanie Turner describes the airy, sun-drenched living room. A driftwood-look wallcovering by Cole & Son gives the appearance of weathered panels and offers a neutral background for the vibrant commissioned paintings by Sally King Benedict.

Powder Room by Steven Stolman
Steven Stolman's powder room gives visitors a bug's-eye view of a garden. A Carmelo Blandino floral painting inspired the colorful custom wallcovering. "The super graphic informed every creative decision, from the amethyst-glass chandelier to the Italian-linen hand towels," Stolman says. Kallista's vanity console with Carrara marble top and nickel faucet anchors the space. An oversize bronze-and-wood framed mirror reflects the opulent escape. The bamboo plant stand filled with pink petunias is the designer's favorite.

Dining Room by Gideon Mendelson
Gideon Mendelson ensured everything in the dining room had texture and patina. Putting a twist on the traditional lattice room, he opted for a more modern crisscross pattern. "Like your grandma's room, but redefined," he says. A smaller table accommodates two for more intimate meals. Mahogany Edward Wormley chairs with cane backs and hide cushions surround a travertine-topped round table. A custom china cabinet displays Italian olive glass and Scandinavian ceramics. An antique-brass, ginkgo-leaf light fixture draws eyes to the octagonal ceiling treatment of upholstered leather panels. The crown molding, window casing, and ceiling-treatment casing are by Metrie.

Master bedroom Jennifer Mabley & Austin Handler
The master bedroom by Jennifer Mabley and Austin Handler is a soothing oasis. "It presents a very convincing argument for going to bed early, and then sleeping in and skipping the beach," Handler says. A deep blue grass cloth by York Wallcoverings wraps the walls in subtle texture. The Candice Olson for Kravet gathered marble fabric forms a statement wall behind the canopy bed. Embroidered linens by Serena & Lily ensure sweet dreams. A tufted sofa, a leather Klismos chair, and a black wicker armchair create an intimate conversation area. Metrie provided the white oak crown molding and window casings. The tiered coco-bead chandelier is by Made Goods.

Master Sitting Room by Kyle Roberts
Kyle Roberts played with proportions in the master sitting room. An oversize desk with blue painted-glass top echoes the swimming pool beyond the French doors. The designer continued to go big with the cerused-oak-and-lacquer credenza and with Circa Lighting's bronze-and-antique-brass chandelier. "It's at least twice the size that would be recommended in any design textbook," Roberts quips. On a smaller scale, drawings, paper sculptures, and small ceramics draw the eye in for a closer look. Pratt & Lambert's buttery "Summer Petals" paint drenches the work space in cheerful color. An ocean photograph by Kerry Shaw commands the wall over the credenza.

Master Bath by Anne Maxwell Foster & Suysel dePedro Cunningham
"We wanted the downstairs master bath to be whimsical yet enveloping," note Anne Maxwell Foster and Suysel dePedro Cunningham. The design duo's custom-colored "Ikat Blossom" wallcovering for Hygge & West dresses the walls in preppy pattern. To create a more cozy space, they coated the soaring ceiling in Pratt & Lambert's coordinating "Heron" paint.

Front Bedroom by Marie-Christine McNally
Upstairs, the front bedroom by Marie-Christine McNally demonstrates that neutral is hardly boring. A custom area rug by McNally—inspired by wood floors shedding paint—instigated the room's decor. "The concept was to ground the space in a natural visual texture," she explains.

Center Bedroom by Mikel Welch
Mikel Welch kept the creamy color scheme alive in the center bedroom. Distressed-timber beams ornament the vaulted ceiling while a set of antique doors from Pakistan serves as a headboard. The organic-cotton duvet and pillow shams are from Garnet Hill. By the window, a carved mountain chair joins an antique Chinese bench topped with a horse sculpture. White linen draperies let the sunlight stream through.

Rear Bedroom and Bath by Michael del Piero
The designer styled the iron daybed from both sides so it can double as a sofa. The room's elongated shape called for a seating area, which includes a 17th-century armchair, sculptural Jan Ekselius lounge chairs, and a concrete coffee table with marble top. A wood console provides a perch for potted greenery and African stone beads. The muted rug, hand-crocheted wool tablecloth, and one-of-a-kind salvage-metal chandelier continue the texture story.

Upstairs Master Bedroom by Elsa Soyars
Dubbed "Deconstructed Chanel in the Hamptons," the second-floor master bedroom by Elsa Soyars is chic and sumptuous. Taking cues from fashion, the bed flaunts a velvet headboard and custom Italian linens. A handwoven black hammock from Mexico offers an unexpected surprise in the far corner. Abstract art, chain-and-acrylic mirrors, and a wool bench finish the formal suite. The rug with raised-diamond motif is by Stanton.

Game Room by Barbara Page Glatt
The adjacent game room by Barbara Page Glatt was influenced by the popular television series Game of Thrones. The show's notable phrase "Winter is coming" served as her theme. "While most think of the Hamptons as a summer retreat, I wanted my space to speak to the other eight months out of the year," she says. A Stanton rug with watercolor effect teams with draperies in a Robert Allen paisley to impart visual interest.

Rec Room by Elle Cole
"It's a multifunctional space conducive to a busy family," Elle Cole says of the rec room. An abstract painting by Ryan Cobourn pops against York Wallcoverings' metallic grass cloth. Painterly draperies and a hand-loomed silk rug by The Rug Company bring soft pattern to the versatile space. CR Laine's green velvet armchairs, X-base ottomans, and linen sofa with fringe-trimmed skirt surround a vintage Willy Rizzo table. Framed photos ornament the tiered side table.

Bunk Room by Julie Dodson
"Alice in Wonderland would call it home," says Julie Dodson of the sophisticated bunk room. Feminine touches prevail—note the bow-tied mirrors and the Houlès cornice piping, drapery trim, and tiebacks on the bed canopies. Antiques, architectural fragments, and textiles ranging from linen to velvet all star in the lavish sanctuary. Framed bunny art by Hunt Slonem hangs above each bed. Benches with acrylic legs seem to float atop Stark's faux-bois carpet. Circa Lighting's mini gilded-iron chandelier lends sparkle overhead.

On the lower level, guests are welcomed by a custom circular bar and plenty of seating. "Our objective was to turn the lounge into a sexy, vibrant space that invites conversation," says Ranelle Susan Wolf. To bring in much-needed light, the designer installed an oversize hanging fixture and backlit the fabricated folding screens with LED strips. A large painting by Wolf introduces a bold burst of color. The hide rug adds warmth while a tufted daybed and a bench layered with pillows afford additional seating.

Carmelo Through the Years
: Uncategorized : Written by Zach Horst : 02-17-2012
Historically, statistics suggest Carmelo Anthony has not always impeded ball movement or prevented offensive flow. Over the course of his eight-year career, Anthony has primarily played with three point guards – Andre Miller, Allen Iverson, and Chauncey Billups. When Melo is paired with a point guard able to control the offense, the numbers prove he is not simply a stop-and-hold isolation player. In Carmelo's Rookie year (03-04), with Miller running the point, the Nuggets finished 9th in the league in assists per game. 'Dre averaged 8.5 assists per 48 minutes – not a stellar number, but a solid one. 60% …continue reading

Daniel Barnes, an avid outdoorsman and disabled veteran who lost his legs in 2006 in Iraq, sits in an all-terrain wheelchair that lets him get back into the woods hunting and fishing in Springfield, Mo.
Missouri veteran gets back his life outdoors
September 20, 2013 at 08:26 PM
The Associated Press
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (AP) — Staff Sgt. Daniel Barnes lost his legs in an ambush on the outskirts of Baghdad one night in 2006. It was the job of his unit to determine if a box conspicuously in the road was an improvised explosive device.
Barnes was commanding the RG31 mine-resistant lead vehicle. He stopped. As he and others waited for a vehicle with a claw used to inspect potential IEDs to move into position, the rocket-propelled grenade hit, the Springfield News-Leader (http://is.gd/gBLt2H ) reports.
"I just remember seeing a big fireball and everything went black and I could not move," he said.
He was whisked to Germany for treatment and then to the Brooke Army Medical Center at Fort Sam Houston in Texas.
"I was injured on a Monday. I woke up on Sunday. I was playing wheelchair basketball on Friday," he said.
Soon after that, he said, while in rehabilitation he learned how to fish from a kayak.
Barnes is thankful that what he was told early in rehabilitation has proven to be true. He has maintained many of the great joys of his life: hunting, fishing, hiking and, in general, being outdoors.
Barnes, 35, who lives outside Waynesville, also is an active Scoutmaster for the 42 Boy Scouts, including his 13-year-old son, Tobias, who make up Troop 202.
Although he could hunt, fish and hike in his Veterans Affairs-approved power chair, his reach into the outdoors expanded across creek beds and rutted trails and up steep hills when in early August he received the gift of a Trackchair valued at about $13,000.
The chair, 42 inches wide, has a band of tread reminiscent of a tank. It is powered by two durable marine batteries that can go full-bore for eight hours on one charge. It is made by Action Manufacturing in Marshall, Minn.
Tim Swenson owns Action Manufacturing. His son was paralyzed in a car accident at age 16 in 1998. Swenson eventually sold his motor sports business in order to create a rugged, dependable wheelchair for lovers of the outdoors.
In 2009 he made four such chairs. Last year he made more than 500. About half of his customers are veterans injured in Iraq and Afghanistan. The other half includes those disabled in auto accidents as well as people with degenerative muscular diseases.
"A lot of veterans, especially the ones injured in the last 10 to 15 years, were pretty active people before they went into the military," Swenson said.
That certainly applies to Barnes, who grew up in a small town in upstate New York with a trout spring 100 yards from his front door. He started hunting at 13 and killed his first deer at 16; it is mounted in his home, as is the hide of a black bear he shot in Alaska in 2007.
"With this chair, I'm able to get out there in the woods by myself if I wanted to," he said. "I can get into some hunting areas that I wasn't able to get into before because of my mobility issues. ... I can go out and go fishing more with my younger son, Jacob, because he likes to fish."
It enables him to more fully participate as a Scoutmaster.
"I'm able to go where they have to go or where they want to go on on a camp-out," he said.
The cost of the Trackchair will be covered by students at the School of the Ozarks in Point Lookout, near Hollister.
Administrators and students at the School of the Ozarks, a laboratory school for grades 9-12, hope to encourage student groups across the nation to help veterans, said Susan Head, dean of character education at College of the Ozarks.
Barnes received his Trackchair through the generosity of the Independence Fund, a national organization that raises money for severely injured veterans. Bill O'Reilly, who will speak at College of the Ozarks on Oct. 11, has championed the cause of various wounded warrior groups and has helped them raise millions of dollars.
With O'Reilly scheduled to speak, Head said, the College of the Ozarks wanted to help an injured Missouri veteran obtain a Trackchair. The college contacted the Independence Fund the day after Barnes had called.
Barnes was unable to pay for the one that had been built for him by Action Manufacturing. The Department of Veterans Affairs, at the last minute, told the manufacturer it would not pay for it because the company had to be approved by the Food and Drug Administration to be an acceptable vendor.
"I was pretty upset about it," Barnes said.
In summary: Barnes called the Independence Fund one day after it had been contacted by the College of the Ozarks, which was looking to buy a Trackchair for a wounded Missouri veteran. The students at the School of the Ozarks are working to reimburse the Independence Fund for the cost of the chair.
"I just happened to call at the right time," Barnes said.
Gretchen Barnes recalled the day her husband was injured: Labor Day 2006.
Two soldiers from Fort Leonard Wood came to her door in St. Robert. They were with her best friend from down the street. Since the soldiers were not wearing dress uniforms, she knew Daniel had not been killed. They told her he had lost his legs.
She was thankful. Her friend from down the street had lost her husband in Iraq just four months prior.
Daniel has always had a positive outlook and is strong-willed, Gretchen said.
"He has always been stubborn. The best way to get him to do something is to tell him he can't do it," she said.
In fact, she joked, she can trick him into doing housework by suggesting, for example, that he's unable to vacuum the floor.
The couple has four boys: Tobias, 13; Jacob, 8; and twins Henry and Gavin, 3½.
"Crappy stuff happens to people every day," she said. "I did not want to be a widow. So I thank God for that."
The Trackchair has given her husband much of his life back.
"He can give up walking," she said. "He can give up the standing. But don't take away a man's car. And don't take away his ability to kill deer."

Penalties happen in golf. For the average player, it's difficult to go an entire round without getting at least one "freebie" or two -- strokes you didn't actually make, but ones you earned through the magic of the rule book.
It would be wonderful if I, or any instructor, could teach you not to incur penalties, but that isn't going to happen. Penalty strokes are a part of the game, and you're going to have them whether you're a rank beginner or the No.1 player in the world.
Which brings us to the most important lesson you can take away from this week's RR Donnelly LPGA Founders Cup. Stacy Lewis thought she had scratched her way to a bogey-free 66 on Saturday to climb within two shots of the lead. Then she saw a rules official coming her way.
It turns out that on the 16th hole of the third round, Stacy hit her tee shot into a fairway bunker. As she and her caddy, Travis Wilson, discussed her lie and how the ball was likely to come out, Wilson stepped into the bunker and appeared to bounce on his right foot. A viewer who saw the incident on television called tournament officials, who determined that Wilson had tested the sand in violation of Rule 13-4.
It was a subjective call. Wilson didn't grind his feet and say, "Yeah, you've got about three inches before hitting dirt." He made a very subtle move. But after all parties saw the incident, the ruling came down and Stacy's 66 became a 68, and her two-shot deficit became four.
There were several ways Stacy could have responded. She could have gotten angry; she could have called the ruling unfair and dwelled on it for the rest of the tournament; she could have let it rattle her; she could have fallen apart; she could have blamed Wilson and created an unhealthy level of tension between herself and her caddy; or she could have accepted the penalty as an act of fate and been content playing for second place.
Fortunately for her, she did none of those things. Stacy used the incident as added motivation, a trigger to intensify her focus.
That focus – along with her ability to gauge the speed of the greens perfectly all week – gave Stacy the added push she needed. She made nine birdies on Sunday and won her second tournament of the year, a victory that propelled her to the No. 1 spot in the women's world rankings.
There is very little chance that you will make nine birdies in a single round, or that you will become the No. 1 golfer in the world. But you can learn to take the proper attitude toward any and all penalty strokes you incur.
It's easy to get angry and frustrated by penalties. But overcoming those feelings and turning a penalty into a positive could mean the difference between a good round and a blow-up.

"Bonjour! I invite you to go to your boarding gate. Paris Airports wishes you a bon voyage," the attendant in front of you smiles. Except he isn't really in front of you—he's not real. He's a hologram at Paris' Orly Airport Hall 40.
Paris' smaller, secondary Orly Airport serves primarily flights headed south towards Corisica. Recently its Hall 40 received a bit of an upgrade. In addition to creating additional seating and room for 400 waiting passengers, they also installed these incredible Holographic Boarding Agents (hint: it's the guy on the left.)
Now, these agents aren't the free-standing "Obi-Wan, You're My Only Hope" sort of holograms we've been promised since the '70s. Instead, a prerecorded video image is rear-projected onto a human-shaped piece of Plexiglass to alert passengers when and where to get on their flight. And while it won't be able to tear a ticket like a real attendant, Orly authorities hope that they will provide a more intuitive means of displaying boarding info. According to officials, the 2D agents have received a generally positive. "Children like it, it's fun. They're attracted to it and try to play with it," Didier Leroy, the airport's director of operations, told the AP.
And hey, at least they won't strike like their flesh-and-blood counterparts! [Yahoo News via Ubergizmo]

white sox Sox GM Kenny Williams, the king of the trade deadline, is quietly exploring possibility of acquring Brett Myers from Astros
Fangraphs on Myers: 113 K / 42 BB, 3.10 ERA, 3.52 FIP, 3.78 xFIP, 2.8 WAR, 49.8% GB%, .294 BABIP, 7.01 K/9, 2.61 BB/9, 0.74 HR/9
- 1 year/$5.1M (2010), plus 2011 mutual option
- 10:$3.1M, 11:$8M mutual option ($2M buyout)
Getting Myers, unlike Edwin Jackson, makes sense. And it has JJ's approval!
UPDATE: Nightengale (USAT):
White Sox have Edwin Jackson included in current trade package for Dunn. If Sox get Dunn, then will try to land Astros' Brett Myers
That would fix things.

The U.S. economy gained 304,000 jobs in April, but that doesn't necessarily mean it will be easy for many individuals to find employment in 2014 or over the next decade.
To boost your chances, of course, it's probably worth targeting jobs that are experiencing rapid growth and have decent pay scales – such as work as a financial advisor.
Kiplinger does this work for jobseekers each year, looking at 10-year employment projections, education requirements and income figures from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
"The BLS puts out employment projections every two years, and we look at the change of numbers for each job and the rate of change for each job," explained Stacy Rapacon, online editor for Kiplinger, in an interview with ThinkAdvisor. "We also take into account the median income for each job and the typical educational requirement."
Across all occupations, the BLS estimates 10-year job growth to be 10.8%. It also puts the average annual salary within the U.S. economy at $22,670 to $56,860.
This year, Kiplinger also factored in a job's stress level, as measured by the BLS and analyzed by career expert Laurence Shatkin. The average stress level across the BLS is 53.1.
Financial advisors made the Best 10 List for a second year in a row, according to Rapacon.
"Once the economy got rockier in 2008, more people needed help with their finances," she explained. "Plus, aging Baby Boomers need advice with or getting into retirement, and that has driven need for advisors."
Read on for details on the Best 10 Jobs of the Future, ranked in relative order of job growth and salary range.
10. Brickmason
10-year growth projection: 35.5%
Annual salary range: $35,860 to $62,810
Total number of U.S. workers: 58,730
Typical education: high school diploma
Stress score: 46.2
Construction of new homes – many of which require brickmasons – is expected to include at least 1.07 million new homes this year, Kiplinger estimates, which is a 15% jump from last year.
"With the expansion of the housing market, a growth number of brickmasons will find plenty of opportunities," Rapacon said.
"We had the issue of bubble [and its aftermath] for a while, but inventory is filling up and more construction is expected for 2014 and into future," she shared. "Bricks are a great way to build houses."
9. Market Research Analyst
10-year growth projection: 31.6%
Annual salary range: $44,110 to $85,310
Total number of U.S. workers: 430,350
Typical education: bachelor's degree
Stress score: 45.8
Market research analysts are needed to help companies improve their relationships with clients, for instance, and perform other data-centric tasks.
"There's a general business need," said Rapacon. "But the big factor driving demand for this job is the surge in 'big data.' Analysts are needed to deal with this and to crunch numbers that benefit businesses, which are looking for employees with a mathematical mindset and analytical thinking."
8. Dental Hygienist
10-year growth projection: 33.3%
Annual salary range: $59,600 to $85,310
Total number of U.S. workers: 192,330
Typical education: associate's degree
Stress score: 55.7
Or course, everyone needs to go to the dentist, says Kiplinger's online editor, "and probably more than we want to go."
The work of a dental hygienist requires less training than that of a dentist and some other posts in health care, she adds.
"It's a great job if you don't mind cleaning teeth, but it is stressful," Rapacon added.
The median salary for a dental hygienist is more than double that of an assistant, according to the BLS.
7. Physical Therapist
10-year growth projection: 36.0%
Annual salary range: $67,700 to $93,820
Total number of U.S. workers: 195,670
Typical education: professional or doctoral degree
Stress score: 54.0
Growth in this field is tied to the explosion of aging Baby Boomers.
This population segment is growing," Rapacon said, "and getting older requires more physical therapy."
Many more workers will be needed to care for Boomers who experience heart attacks and strokes, for instance. Plus, ongoing advances in medicine mean that people will live longer and require more rehabilitation.
These dynamics also are likely to push demand for occupational therapists up 29% over the next decade.
6. Civil Engineer
10-year growth projection: 19.7%
Annual salary range: $63,850 to $101,660
Total number of U.S. workers: 262,170
Typical education: bachelor's degree
Stress score: 51.0
Civil engineers design and supervise large construction projects, such as airports, bridges, roads and sewer systems.
"The need for these engineers is expanding because of the growing population [in some areas] and the need for improving existing infrastructure that may be weakening or crumbling," Rapacon explained.
5. Management Consultant
10-year growth projection: 18.6%
Annual salary range: $59,360 to $106,950
Total number of U.S. workers: 567,840
Typical education: bachelor's degree
Stress score: 47.9
These professionals, also referred to as management analysts, aim to help businesses boost efficiency, cut costs and raise profits.
"They work on bigger-picture issues rather than things like store locations and price points, the Kiplinger expert shared.
"These consultants focus on how a business can move up or expand its client base, for instance," she added.
Workers in this field can start out with a bachelor's degree. "But overtime, they would benefit from having the Certified Management Consultant designation and/or getting an MBA to be competitive," Rapacon said.
4. Information Security Analyst
10-year growth projection: 36.5%
Annual salary range: $67,120 to $113,100
Total number of U.S. workers: 78,020
Typical education: bachelor's degree
Stress score: 50.1
With the increase in digital threats, organizations are looking for protection of their information, especially those working in health care and finance.
"Information security analysts are like cyber-security specialist, but they specifically work on networks and not just online," Rapacon explained.
3. App Developer
10-year growth projection: 22.8%
Annual salary range: $72,290 to $116,630
Total number of U.S. workers: 643,830
Typical education: bachelor's degree
Stress score: 46.4
Kiplinger says the proliferation of mobile devices has caused a boom in the need for new applications.
"We are talking about the fact that these jobs involve mainly working with mobile technology, which is tied to the increasing use of mobile devices," the Kiplinger expert explained. "We are all always using smart phones these days."
2. Financial Advisor
10-year growth projection: 27.0%
Annual salary range: $49,410 to $124,680
Total number of U.S. workers: 183,420
Typical education: bachelor's degree
Stress score: 51.7
"As Americans age and pensions become a thing of the past, the value of good investment advice will only grow," reports Kiplinger.
In addition, market crashes like that of 2008 or weak periods bring great demand for investment help.
"Overall, aging Baby Boomers is the big driver for this need," said Rapacon. "Plus, the job scores pretty low on the stress scale, which is a nice benefit."
She notes, of course, that the need for advisors to be "exact and accurate," as well as the stress they feel in working to maintain or improve their clients' financial health, should not be minimized.
The payoff? Advisors have the second-highest earnings potential on this Best 10 list.
1. Health Specialties Professor
10-year growth projection: 36.1%
Annual salary range: $55,340 to $138,070
Total number of U.S. workers: 163,850
Typical education: doctoral or professional degree
Stress score: 51.9
Demographics and technology are colliding, which has boosted the demand for a wide variety of health-care professionals.
This means training.
"Health specialties professors work at colleges, but they do not teach nursing or at nursing schools," Rapacon noted. "And they don't necessarily have to have an M.D. degree. It depends on the field, though it always helps to have professional experience."

Goodness, what a darling wedding this is! Sunray's mom did a lot of the adorable details, which makes it even more special! Keep reading for details from the bride and groom, and check back at 1pm for more shots…
In planning our wedding, what we looked forward to the most was seeing our families and friends. We knew that many of them will be coming from far away so we wanted to make this experience as fun and joyful for them as possible. Sure our wedding was about us but we wanted to make sure that they will have a good time as well.
Being from two different backgrounds, we decided to skip most of the traditional details from both sides and make the wedding our own. We designed and took care of most of the details ourselves to make sure that the wedding was a reflection of us and our personality – it also saved us a lot of money.
We couldn't have asked be a more perfect day. The weather was nice, the food was delicious, music was great and everyone had fun.
Venue: Hakone Japanese Garden, Saratoga, CA – Hakone.com
We picked the Hakone Japanese Gardens because it felt intimate and private. While searching for a location, we came across many parks and gardens that felt too open. The Hakone garden was just the right size for us and it is closed to the public after 5pm. The venue was able to accommodate both the ceremony and reception which was a big plus since we didn't want our guests to drive to a different location after the ceremony. We also liked that our guests can roam around the beautiful Japanese gardens while we do the formal photos with our families.
Photographer: Jesse Leake – JesseLeake.com
Sunray was a fan of Jesse's work even before we were engaged so as soon as we were set on the date and location, we booked him. Jesse and his assistant, Emily, were fun and easy to work with. They seemed to be everywhere to capture the right moments without being intrusive.
Catering: Parsley Sage Rosemary Thyme – psrt.com
We opted for casual and fun hors d'oeuvres – mini burgers with sweet potato fries, mini tacos and mini pizzas. The dinner started with baby greens and strawberry salad then main dish options of beef filet with chimichuri sauce or steam snapper with Thai red curry sauce. The kids were served a fantastic macaroni and cheese with chicken nuggets, which were also popular with the adults. We still receive complements till this day on the great service and food.
Wedding Cake: Sprinkles Cupcakes – Sprinkles.com
Neither of us are big on cakes but we do love Sprinkles cupcakes so it was an obvious choice. We ordered extra for our guests to take home.
Bride's Dress: Nicole Miller
Bridesmaid's Dress: BCBG
Groomsmen's Vest: JCrew
Shoes: A $5 find from Thailand with handmade decorations by Sunray's mom
Groom's Suit: Zara + JCrew
Invitations: Hand bounded by Sunray's mom ([email protected]) with supplies from Paper Source – Paper-Source.com
Escort Cards: Handmade by us.
Both of us love to travel so we named the tables for our favorite spots and used some photo booth pictures as table signs. We bought inexpensive number stands from a restaurant supplies store and spray painted them to match our color scheme. We organized the handmade escort cards in vintage library card drawers. The cards were made to look like mini scrapbook pages unique for each table. As guests look for their names they get to see the different photos and memories of us throughout the years. It's like looking through a box of old pictures.
Photo Booth: PhotoWorksInteractive.com
Gene proposed in a vintage photo booth in San Francisco so we use photo booth pictures wherever we can. We also had a photo booth at the wedding for our guests to take pictures as favors. We brought props to encourage the silliness. Sunray's stepdad made thought bubble notepads for guests to write notes on and use in the photos as a prop. At the end of the night, we got a copy of every picture taken and an album full of scrapbook pages made for us by our guests.
Boutonnieres: Handmade by Sunray's mom – [email protected] Inspired by Martha Stewart's Button Blossoms – http://www.marthastewartweddings.com/article/button-blossoms?autonomy_kw=button&rsc=header_14
Ring Pillow Box: Handmade by Sunray's mom – [email protected] Inspired by a DIY project at OnceWed.com
Rings: Custom made by Anna Andersson – AnnaAnderssonJewelry.com
Necklace: Handmade by Sunray's mom – [email protected]
Flowers and Centerpieces: Angela & Corinda Wong – Friends of ours
Hair and Make Up: Jade Jutara – Sunray's sister – [email protected]
DJ: DJJeremyProductions.com
We asked Jeremy to play cover songs done by Vitamin String Quartet during dinner and top 40 mixes when the dance floor opened. Everyone danced the night away and the dance floor was packed until the last song.
Mini Cards: Moo.com
We set up a Flickr account for our guests to share pictures taken at the wedding. The login information was given to guests on Mini Moo cards with our baby pictures printed on the back.
Cupcake Stands
We made the cupcake stands ourselves out of plates, teacups, and candle stick holders found at thrift shops held together with epoxy.

Allegiant Travel Company (ALGT) is a very interesting company. It is an airline company so when I first heard the name in 2009 or so, I immediately dismissed it as I don't bother with airlines.
ALGT came up again in the 2011 Forbes Best Small Company list so it was time to give it a chance. After all, I can't always spoil myself by studying companies that always meet my criteria. That would only limit my investment view and learning curve. As I wrote previously, studying bad companies is good for you.
Upon reading ALGT's company reports, I found it very educational and highly entertaining.
I definitely recommend you to read the annual report to get a bigger picture of the airline industry and especially ALGT.

Strategic Advantage/Moat
The airline industry is highly competitive yet ALGT has many advantages over its bigger and smaller competitors. In most businesses, efficiency comes from scaling operations, but not in the airline industry.
ALGT proves this in the way it does business.
They have less planes, less flights and less routes, yet are better off than most of their competitors who continue to lose money year after year.
Here is how they do it.
- Low cost operator. In a capital intensive commodity business, having a low cost business model is utmost important.
- Focuses on the leisure traveler instead of business travelers. Leisure travelers want cheapest airfares first and schedule their trip around their flight itinerary. Business travelers place great importance on their own business schedule with price coming second. This strategy allows ALGT to provide low frequency services from small cities but makes full use of capacity.
- Every flight is a direct flight. No connecting flights.
- Uses larger jet aircraft to provide nonstop service from small cities direct to leisure destinations.
- Does not use frequent flyer programs or code-share arrangements. Only worthwhile for heavy travelers who use the same airline to accrue points. Doesn't suit the leisure traveler who wants the cheapest flight.
- Sells directly to travelers without participation in global distribution systems. This means ALGT does not sell tickets through Expedia, Travelocity or any other travel website. Tickets can only be purchased via their website, over the phone or at a ticket counter. This equates to less expenses.
- Has a variable flight schedule. Depending on demand and profitability, ALGT will cut or add flight routes. One example is how they moved back to Orlando Sanford International airport from Orlando International Airport as there wasn't enough profit from operating in Orlando International Airport.
- The variable flight model also allowed ALGT to cut flights by half when oil prices skyrocketed in 2008 and the recession hit later on. They can easily ramp up the flights when oil prices are low or when holiday season begins as well.
- The entire goal for a flight is to fly full, yet most airlines can't achieve this. ALGT temporarily suspends flying to some holiday destinations during non peak periods when demand is down.
- Focuses on markets where competitors will find it difficult to enter. The bigger airlines will have to accept losing money in these markets if they want to compete for market share.
- Sells holiday packages in additional to tickets. Contracts with hotels and resorts to provide holiday package deals to customers.
- ALGT also makes good revenue from optional fees. The fees listed below was from a review of ALGT found online. Link is available at the bottom.
– Priority boarding: $9.99 – allows you to get on the plane first making sure you have overhead room.
– Premium seat selection: $9.99 – you get an assigned seat near the front or at the exit rows.
– Standard seat assignment: $6.99 – gives you an assigned seat towards the back of the aircraft.
– Online checked bag fee: $39.98 – might be more than the industry average, but you want to pay it online, since it will cost you $70.00 per bag at the airport.
- Makes use of strategically located bases to shift schedules and flights, perform line maintenance, overnight parking of aircraft, and other operations support.
- Does not hedge fuel costs
I've probably only gotten half deep into ALGT's way of doing business but I'm sure you can agree that there are not many airlines that operate as strategically and savvy as ALGT.
The main growth driver comes from ALGT's ability to expand into more smaller cities. There are hundreds of smaller cities located hours away from international airports, and people living in these areas also have to fly somehow.
Since ALGT purchases used MD-80 airplanes on the cheap, it will be able to penetrate these locations as their cost to open a new route is much cheaper than a bigger airline.
Growth also comes from ancillary revenue. By making better deals with resorts, hotels and casinos, ALGT is able to generate more commission from its package sales.
ALGT is working on a direct flight to Hawaii which should add growth.
- Of the 161 routes it flies (according to last 10-K), only 10 routes have competition.
- Due to its profitability, ALGT trades at a premium to its peers.
- Gross margin is around 40%. Unheard of. Comps are around 15-18%.
- MD-80 airplane engines no longer being made could lead to parts shortage.
- Having to replace their current fleet of MD-80's. Different planes mean new maintenance, training, schedules, parts etc
- MD-80 planes are also about 20 years old which is a risk. This has been discussed in the forum so I'll leave out full details today.
- Increased industry regulation resulting in higher fees and licenses.
- Bigger competitor willing to lose money to take market share from ALGT.
- Another recession or terrorist activity causing a big decline in flights.
- On Feb 1, ALGT announced their 36th consecutive profitable quarter
- Passenger revenue per available seat mile (PRASM), perhaps the most important bottom-line measure of an airline's health, increased 11.7% over the year-ago period and 19.2% for all of 2011.
- $320M in cash and only $146M in debt
- I'll leave valuation out this time around as I am not comfortable valuing airlines.
- Reconfiguring fleet of MD-80 aircrafts from 150 seats to 166 seats. The increase in seats per plane directly increases revenue potential.
- New flight routes to Hawaii will meet the popularity of Hawaii vacations.
- New and additional ancillary third party products. Create better holiday packages to drive additional revenue.
While learning about the company, I couldn't help but be impressed by the business strategy and business savvy. Maybe it is because the CEO is an entrepreneur at heart.
Previously, I had never thought about airlines as a potential investment opportunity but ALGT completely shatters that assumption.
At the current price, it is clearly at a premium, but if it comes down to a reasonable range, ALGT is definitely one to watch out for. As the spider graph shows at the top, ALGT is a well rounded company.

In this post, BPC's archivist, Anne Kumer, shares some history. This post also appears on NYC Circa, a history blog about New York City and its public spaces.
By 1917, World War I support efforts were creating significant strains on domestic food production. Food prices increased 200%, and people were hoarding what limited staples they could acquire.In March 1917, the National War Garden Commission was founded by Charles Lathrop Pack. The Commission embarked on a massive advertising campaign, encouraging citizens to get more involved in food production, and utilize public spaces, fire escapes, and rooftops to grow their own produce. Most of the posters employed the use of clever slogans, while trying to serve as morale boosters during a devastating time in history. In some ways, advertising hasn't changed much.
Pretty ladies in pretty dresses are often used to sell all types of things, even gardening and patriotism.
Uncle Sam works too.
My favorite, screaming (banshee) produce.

In New York City, on February 21, 1917, just a month before the National War Garden Commission was formed, 150 housewives stormed city hall, demanding involvement from local government. The Mayor at the time, John P. Mitchel, responded by creating a food committee to regulate prices and educate the public on urban gardening practices. The War Garden Committee of Manhattan was a branch of the Department of Parks and Recreation, and overseen by Park Commissioner William F. Grell.
Bryant Park was home to one of New York's largest demonstration gardens. It opened on April 13, 1918, 93 years ago today, and was located on the north side of the park, about where the ping pong tables and Reading Room are now, and near the Eagle Hut.

This garden, along with a similar demonstration garden in Union Square, increased Manhattan's gardening activities by 70 percent.

Here, people could be more involved in local gardening efforts, receive instruction on how and what to plant, and interact with like-minded neighbors. This small garden house was used as a depot for instructional literature, and as a sort of visitor's center in the park.
Thankfully, the practice of urban gardening is still alive and well in NYC, with several farmer's markets in all five boroughs, and Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) programs all over.
