How to format an SD card on a Canon SD600 camera when the menu says "memory card locked." The memory card is in the unlocked position.

Card Locked! It is definitely NOT the lock tab. This is my sisters camera. She has used this card for a while.

I have tested this card in my own camera and it works and I tried my card in her camera and that works. Why is this one card suddenly showing up to this one camera as locked?

So far I've done 58 2v2 matches as a Hpala / BM hunter. Every loss is against a team with a Disc priest.
How on earth am I supposed to kill them? I actually managed to get one to 60% once.
So far I've done 58 2v2 matches as a Hpala / BM hunter. Every loss is against a team with a Disc priest.
How on earth am I supposed to kill them? I actually managed to get one to 60% once.
Yes shadow priest need to be nerfed!...Wait what?
But seriously just cc the priest and kill the dps, a hunter and paladin has plenty of ccs.
Time...line? Time isn't made out of lines. It is made out of circles. That is why clocks are round. ~ Caboose
Only lost to disc priest teams? omfg nerf hunter/holy pala plz
You beat their health down to nothing, then chain your ccs and interrupt them with they try hard casting and win.
Essentially you want to force them to try to hard cast and make sure both you and the hpala are on top of interrupts.
Your hunter obviously isnt going full retard hard enough.
But seriously, between hpally and hunter you can chain cc a disc nearly indefinitely. Scatter -> Trap -> silencing shot -> Fist of justice. 20 second cc chain every 30 seconds. If your hunter cant land kills with that, you got issues.
Was just the first day of Arena and after we got to around 1600 I was tired of the priest teams. Perhaps it goes better when we actually communicate and plan our CC :P
Double Ret is also a fun comp to face. Managed to beat some, but my god are their burst insane.
Key words in this thread: 2v2, just dinged 90, honor gear, first day of arena, 1600 rating.
Yeah, blame the priest class.
haha I love the hunter hate(don't really) on practically every single thread now. Back to op - you should have enough cc's between you to manage, if not play the managame
Your Paladin probably gets forced to bubble a lot earlier than he would using Malev/Tyranical and it's instantly Mass Dispelled. I imagine that's why you have faster losses. 1600 isn't super high, I usually play 16XX on my Holy Paladin and 17/1800 on my Disc for 2s caps without voice chat. Try to get some voice chat going on, talk about the teams you'll face in the ready room and do what you can. Your Paladin partner has a lot to learn about positioning, healing and CC chaining and it will not be easy until he gets some gear. I went from 85 gear to 90 over the course of a week (doing 2s with a guild Warlock, Warrior and DK to get Conquest and BGs in my down time) and it was funny when they didn't see my health and left me and hilarious when they did see my health and I had to kite like a bitch (or die).

I personally think priests are pretty powerful, however they are essentially a BM hunters worst nightmare, large sustain and dots.
Don't worry guys, MM is going to be right up there with BM next patch.

CC the disc timing your chains then go FULL HODOR on the DPS.
you can thank me later.
It's not hard for a Disc Priest to outheal a single Hunter. Stampede is laughable, they're only dangerous with full CDs up and one of those CDs got nerfed into uselessness.
And MM won't even be competitive.
It's not hard for a Disc Priest to outheal any class, except perhaps Unholy DK. That's hardly a knock on Hunters.

What double standards? If there was any legitimate complains I wouldn't mind discussing them. The OP could be unlucky and get queued up against full geared and very experienced 3v3/5v5/RBG disc priests all day at 1500 rating (which is the mmr you start at), and simply get outgeared and outclassed all day. Would that make him annoyed about the priest class? Yes! But does it mean that disc priests are way out of hand? No! Because healers are close to immortal in 1v1 and 2v2 situations, especially when the OP was playing with a shitty geared holy paladin, who apparently has close to zero experience with the healer role. He could have played against any healer in that situation and still be super annoyed.
Don't complain about 2v2. It's been broken since season 1, and it has only become worse ever since they removed the rewards from the bracket in season 6(?).
Yes discipline priests are strong, maybe too strong, but not outclassing other healers other than a tiny margin, and not anywhere near as strong as shamans at the beginning of Cataclysm and MoP.
As for shadow priests. If you still feel like they are too strong, maybe you should install patch 4.3 and get back to live realms.

Take Cupid on a Valentine's Day B&B excursion
Posted on January 25, 2011
Filed Under Love | Leave a Comment
Hoping for the perfect Valentine to arrive? Be proactive. Invite that pudgy little cherub with the arrow on an adventure. My friend Maria Coder at BnB Finder.com has some great suggestions for single women and their girlfriends. Take an excursion to find the perfect date and mate.
Here is a simple three step plan.
1. Identify your type, be honest — are you hoping to rope a city slicker, a cowboy, a surfer, a skier or Rhett Butler?
2. Make your travel arrangements today
3. Head out to the Inn where you are most likely to find your type
Maria says: "Wondering when your love life might just turn around? You know what you're looking for you just need to position yourself better to find it. Somewhere, out there, there's a great guy at a bar with an empty stool beside him."
And be sure you pack lots of red clothing and your fire engine red lipstick because men like women in red!
This from guest columnist Maria Coder:
Here are five types of Valentines and where to find them. So choose your type then book accommodations where you and your single friends may can stay and find ambiance, amenities and even complimentary breakfasts.
If down-home, belt-buckled, Wrangler-wearing, men are your favorite, you'll want to head to Nashville. The Tennessee capital is big on boys with guitars, country crooners and honky-tonks. Head over to the Daisy Hill Bed and Breakfast in Nashville's trendy and historic Hillsboro Village.
Full daily breakfasts vary from piled-high French toast to homemade quiche. Complimentary beverages and all-day snacks are included. Free wireless internet let's you quickly post your photos on Facebook. The inn does have a two-night minimum stay but with rates at $160, divided by two ($80 each) it's as if you get one night free.
The Brentwood and The Big Bungalow Bed & Breakfast are also popular choices though there are many other fun Nashville bed and breakfasts and Tennessee inns.

Manhattan or shall we say, Men-hattan, is the place to go to catch a fast-talking, career-obsessed, former stockbroker. If you're looking to sip cosmopolitans in an urban playground, you've met your match.
Conveniently located in New York City's Upper East Side, the Ivy Terrace, is walking distance to countless bars and restaurants. High on old world charm and modern amenities, the inn features stunning antiques, complimentary WiFi, cable TV, and a guest kitchen stocked with breakfast treats, cookware and coffee maker.
Hotel 309 and Wyman House are also popular B&B choices in Manhattan, though there are many other New York City bed and breakfasts and Manhattan inns.

If you want to meet a mountaineer, you're going to have to climb a mountain. So, chop, chop… grab your winter skis, windbreaker and chapstick and hit the slopes.
How about the Wakefield Inn & Spa in Wakefield, Quebec within the natural beauty of the Gatineau Park? With more than 36,100-hectares of hills, forest, lakes and streams., this also means, any nearby male outdoor enthusiasts are likely to congregate here.
The inn, a luxurious alcove, features a waterfall dining solarium and a charming fireplace lounge. The onsite spa has a full menu of treatments. An overnight stay for you and a friend, sharing one room, is $324 before taxes, which includes a full, hot, breakfast and a three-course Valentine's dinner. Complimentary wireless internet is included.
Hayden Wexford House and Manoir Mon Calme are also popular lodging choices in Quebec, though there are many other Quebec bed and breakfasts and Canada inns.

Hot and sweaty for the laidback, Hawaiian Tropic-scented, type of guy? Sunny Fort Lauderdale, Florida is the place for you. Grab your flip flops and a bottle of water and take seaside seats.
Steps from a glorious sandy beach is the Granada Inn. This secluded paradise lets guests enjoy Continental breakfast poolside each morning. Stroll along the ocean, "accidentally" lose your beach ball near the surfer catching his breath, or shop the high-end boutiques along Las Olas Boulevard. The inn provides an easy escape and a lot of eye candy.
There's also free internet, in case you generously want to share your red hot pics and instantly make friends green with envy. There's a two-night minimum on each stay; prices start at $139 per room (based on double occupancy).
Florida has many waterside bed and breakfasts, to fine tune your search be more specific, looking up inns in Key West bed and breakfasts or Fort Myers bed and breakfasts.

They just don't make men like Rhett Butler anymore. Still, if you're seeking a true Southern gentleman, a man's man, who will open doors and buy you emerald green hats, Savannah, Georgia, is your best bet.
Sweet and historic, the Green Palm Inn instantly exudes Savannah charm. The inn, once cottages for seamen, has a refreshingly folk Victorian feel. Just steps from Greene Square with one of historic Savannah's best known gardens, the inn is also a short stroll to the Savannah River Street and other cultural hotspots.
Southern hospitality at its best, the innkeepers are known for their over-the-top gourmet breakfasts, afternoon dessert and pre-dinner wine and cheese? Rates start at $149 plus tax per night. Complimentary wireless internet is included. There is a two-night minimum for Valentine's Day.
The Marshall House Bed and Breakfast and the Azalea Inn and Gardens are also popular places to stay, though there are many fantastic Savannah bed and breakfasts and Georgia inns.

Regardless of where you choose to go to get in Cupid's path, have a great time, look around and keep your chin up. In the end, it's better to be looking for someone great and enjoying yourself rather than sitting home and waiting for the phone to ring.

FBI: Arrest made in Wash. ricin letter scare
Updated 9:05 pm, Wednesday, May 22, 2013
Spokane, Wash.
A 37-year-old man was arrested Wednesday after a pair of letters containing the deadly poison ricin were discovered in Washington state last week.
A grand jury indictment accuses Matthew Ryan Buquet of mailing a threatening communication to U.S. District Judge Fred Van Sickle at the federal courthouse on May 14.
The indictment did not say anything about ricin. However, the U.S. Postal Service said last week that two letters were discovered — one addressed to the courthouse and the other to the downtown post office — and they contained ricin in a crude form that did not immediately pose a threat to workers.
Buquet appeared in federal court in Spokane after the FBI said agents arrested him Wednesday afternoon. He pleaded not guilty.
If convicted of mailing a threatening communication, he could face up to 10 years in prison.
Ricin is a highly toxic substance made from castor beans. As little as 500 micrograms, the size of the head of a pin, can kill an adult if inhaled or ingested.
There were no reports of illness connected to the Spokane letters.
Investigators in hazardous materials suits spent most of Saturday executing a search warrant at a three-story apartment building in downtown Spokane. Witnesses reported that agents escorted a man from the building.
The Spokane investigation comes a month after letters containing ricin were addressed to President Barack Obama, a U.S. senator and a Mississippi judge. A Mississippi man was arrested in that case.

Naive Carrie Underwood Gives Her Husband a Hall Pass When He Goes Out (VIDEO) Do you let your husband go out whenever he wants?
Naive Carrie Underwood Gives Her Husband a Hall Pass When He Goes Out (VIDEO)
Ahh -- newlyweds. Don't they make you giggle a little bit sometimes? They're just so naive and in love and totally have their heads in the clouds. But then again, most of us did too at one point or another. That's part of the fun of getting married, right? Carrie Underwood tied the knot with Mike Fisher a little less than two years ago, and they're obviously still enjoying the honeymoon period.
She must be deliriously blinded by love (gag me), especially since she went ahead and gave Mike a major hall pass in her new Glamour interview.
Carrie gushed over how amazing he is and how much she trusts him and all that good stuff, and then went on to say:
I don't have to worry about Mike. I don't think twice. He's going out? I don't care; it doesn't bother me. I don't bat an eye.
OMG. I can't help but feel a little bit bad for her, because she probably has no idea she just gave her husband a free ticket to party it up with the boys (and do God knows what else) for the remainder of their marriage. Because if she ever so much as questions him about what he is up to or where he is headed, he can throw her words right back in her face by saying, "Oh c'mon -- I thought you totally trusted me, doll!"
Don't get me wrong, it's all well and good that Carrie has so much confidence in Mike and that she's certain he won't engage in any sort of bad behavior. But did she really have to throw in the bit about not caring one bit if he goes out? Because something tells me if he's suddenly M.I.A. every single Saturday night after they have a couple of kids down the road, she's not going to be quite as lenient with him. Can't you picture how their future phone conversations will go down once kiddos enter the picture?! (I'll try and contain my laughter as best I can.)
Good thing for Carrie, she's got some time to ride the newlywed wave with Mike before he gets a hankering for a little more action. As you will hear in this video clip, they're taking things nice and slow when it comes to being a boring old married couple.
Do you let your husband go out whenever he wants?
i have no control nor would i want to over where my husband goes , when or etc. I do not own my spouse. and i trust who i married.
What the hell is up with the idea that wives get to control their husbands like they're impulsive little children?
They're grown men. If they're gonna go out, they're gonna go out. She obviously knows he goes out.
SO isn't my child. I can't control him. He is able to go out so long as he doesn't shirk his responsiblities at home.
I read the article in which the quote is pulled from in its entirety and it seems to me she trusts her husband. I'd say that's a good thing.
I think the writer of the above article pulled most of what she wrote out of her a**. I highly doubt that Carrie means she is OK with her husband going out without her nightly but rather that when he does go out-that she's not stressing about all of the things hes doing "wrong".
I'm the same. My husband doesn't go out often, but when he does-I'm not sitting at home, biting my nails...worried he's f**cking a stripper.
Umm, I didn't see what she said that warranted her giving her husband a pass? She's just in the newlywed stage where I'm sure her husband feels the same about her. They have times I'm sure they do their own thing and trust each other. Sounds like a typical relationship to me?
Quoting randi1978:
What the hell is up with the idea that wives get to control their husbands like they're impulsive little children?
They're grown men. If they're gonna go out, they're gonna go out. She obviously knows he goes out.
Thank you!! Why should marriage be a battle? I don't expect my DH to control my life and I won't control his.

As we wait from some quotes from radio and television, what did the 49ers learn from this game? Here's a few points
-Shaun Hill not only proved he can play, but he's tough. He took a couple of shots, but stayed in the game. Hill's stats weren't glittering. He was 11-of-24 of 124 yards for three touchdowns and an interception, which is pretty good against the top-ranked pass defense.
-The 49ers got good performances from their younger players, tight end Delanie Walker, defensive Ray McDonald and of course, Patrick Willis. He had another 20-tackle performance, that's the third time he's been over 20 tackles this year. He's also making more stops behind the line of scrimmage.
-So what happens to Mike Nolan? Players are certainly playing for him in these last few games, nobody quit on him. But is he a guy who can lead the 49ers to the playoffs? This has been such a difficult year for him with losing his father and the 49ers struggling. It would be surprsing if they fire him now.

|04.04.2013 - 2013 has been an ugly year for commodities
|Gold's precipitous decline in recent months has garnered a lot of attention in the headlines. Of course, gold is only a single commodity in an asset class that had, for the most part, a pretty dismal first quarter of 2013. In a recent report on commodities, Société Générale analysts Michael Haigh and Jesper Dannesboe sought to explain the reason for across-the-board weakness in 2013: The conditions are finally coming into place for a sustainable US economic recovery. This will provide some support for pro-cyclical commodities. However, while the US economy has arrived at 'recovery-friendly conditions', Europe is not there yet, and the recent acceleration in China's economic growth is likely to fade by mid-year as the Chinese government's policies to rebalance the economy act as a brake...............................................Full Article: Source

Monkey and a Gun
A stuffed monkey is suspended from a rod at one end of a lecture hall by an electromagnet. A golf ball gun aimed directly at the monkey cuts power to the electromagnet when fired. Thus, the monkey begins falling at the same instant the gun fires the golf ball. The projectile and target meet in mid air.
Intuitively one might think that the ball will go over the monkey's head due to its fast speed. However, gravity accelerates all objects downward at the same rate, meaning the monkey and the ball will meet at exactly the same point. If the ball was shot even faster, it would still hit the monkey, but higher above the ground.
No animals were harmed in this demo.

Great Demo!!! I used it in class when we covered projectile motion. thanks.

It would be clearer if the monkey and ball were at the same level/elevation and it would be more dramatic if it were a pistol shot and dropped bullet at the same level, i.e., fired bullet and dropped bullet hit the level ground at the same time! Patrick

Letter: Cuomo can create model for defense
Published 4:00 pm, Thursday, October 3, 2013
The editorial "Defense for the poor," Sept. 27, makes critically important points about public defense services in New York.
The right to counsel in New York is undermined by a lack of resources and oversight. High caseloads deprive clients of their lawyers' time and attention; lack of investigative and other tools prevent lawyers from identifying the holes in the cases against their clients. Defenders and their clients are without a voice in an adversarial system that is out of balance.
Nearly 50 years ago, two of the founding members of the Committee for an Independent Public Defense Commission, which I chair and whose membership includes nearly 30 past New York State Bar Association presidents and other committed bar leaders, helped craft the legislation that created today's system of public defense services. They are not today what was intended. For more than a decade, the committee has called for fundamental restructuring.
The Hurrell-Herring vs. New York lawsuit provides a unique opportunity for Gov. Andrew Cuomo to help turn New York's broken, county-by-county patchwork of public defense services into a model statewide system. His leadership in relation to marriage equality, minimum wage, gun control and protections of people with special needs demonstrates that he has the capacity, the political acumen, and the resolve to create a model public defense system for the nation. We need his leadership again.
Counsel to former Gov. Nelson Rockefeller; founding member of Whiteman Osterman & Hanna LLP

Expert: Dry air helping fuel slow hurricane season
Published 12:35 pm, Friday, October 4, 2013
A Texas A&M storm expert says dry air is helping fuel a ho-um hurricane season, at least so far.
Robert Korty, an associate professor in Atmospheric Sciences, said in a statement Friday there have been 11 named storms this year, which is about average.
Normally, though, three would be Category 3 or higher hurricanes. This season's two previous named storms making landfall, Humberto and Ingrid, were relatively low intensity.
Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Karen is moving through the Gulf of Mexico and expected to be the first named storm to hit the U.S.
Korty said usually active August and September were slow and blamed dry air coming across the Atlantic from Africa, preventing storms from developing or strengthening.
The season runs through Nov. 30 but Sept. 10 is its peak time.

Hi, I am Roland (www.kickinger.com) and want to share with you my workout and nutrition program during my first action film in India. The title of the film is "Peeranmai" which means "Mighty Man". Meaning not only physical mighty but also mental and spiritual.)
The film is scheduled for 7 weeks and directed by S.P.Jhanananathan. This Tamil Film will be released worldwide.
Okay let's get to the fun part!
My preparation for the trip:
*) Plenty of protein in form of Wild Salmon cans in water, Protein Powder, my Xenadrin RFA-X, Vitamins, Joint care, Fish oil, Protein bars, Almonds and Walnuts and last but not least lots of Mosquito repellent.
*) Shooting Schedule: 6:30 am pick up from hotel (michaelsinnthekkady.com) until approx. 7:00pm
On my arrival 3 days ago I had a meeting with the chef regarding my daily meal plan:
Breakfast: 6:00am Oatmeal cooked in water, 10 egg whites and a fresh pineapple juice. Supplements: Protein drink, Xenadrin, Fish caps, Multi Vitamin, Joint care.
Then I had the chef prepare until 8pm: 3 servings of: 8 oz grilled chicken breast, steamed mixed veggies, and oatmeal. Then at 8pm I would have grilled fish approx 8 oz. with steamed veggies. Lots of water during the day. By the way people here are extremely helpful and their hospitality is first class!
I will post again soon regarding my amazing condition and strength training without having access to a fitness facility.
Until soon,
Your friend in Fitness and Health,

Port City crime numbers a mixed bag for 2009
Wilmington police released their crime stats for 2009 today. Some crimes are on the decline, while others are on the rise. The Port City had three murders in 2009, the lowest number since 1994.
Police Chief Ralph Evangelous said his department's efforts to target felons with guns seem to have paid off helping take weapons off the street. While murder numbers have decreased, police have seen an increase in burglaries and larcenies. Evangelous blames the increase on the fact that those charged with larceny do not serve jail time. He says the lack of punishment tempts thieves to repeat the offense over and over again. Evangelous says the new numbers, though, area a step in the right direction.
"They could always be better obviously," Evangelous said. "I would love to have zero numbers and all that. I think overall we have made some big improvements since our peak year."
Wilmington also saw decreases in robberies and motor vehicle thefts.
Some residents in Downtown Wilmington told WWAY they were very surprised to hear how low the murder numbers were. Many said they're still concerned about their safety, especially in the downtown area. Chief Evangelous said police are planning on making extra efforts to help make downtown safer in 2010.

Luxury is exclusivity, quality, durability, innovation, lifestyle. But is this definition the main drive behind the unstoppable quest of the world for the major Italian luxury fashion brands? Unfortunately, not for the Italian brands (regardless of ownership), but more for French, Italian, American or British brands.
Take for instance Mayfair's Bruton St, Mount St and Brook St – London's most hip and sought after luxury fashion shopping destination. No Italian luxury fashion house is present with an outlet but Italian made luxury handbags and shoes dominate the luxury stores in the area at Vivienne Westwood, Alfred Dunhill, Nicholas Kirkwood, Harrys of London, Oscar de la Renta, Christian Louboutin, Balenciaga, Sonia Rykiel, Lanvin etc.
Instead, Italian fashion houses are crowding New and Old Bond Street, each muscling in among giants such as Chanel (recently opened – second largest in the world), Louis Vuitton (Maison status store), Burberry and Ralph Lauren – each almost twice the size of any of the stores of Italian luxury brands such as Gucci, Ferragamo, Missoni, Corneliani or Cesare Paciotti. With its recent opening of its men's tailoring store, Dolce & Gabbana joins the likes of counterparts Prada, Armani and Zegna which have larger stores.
Back at The Savoy, upon entering my Thames view suite, a vintage Pathé footage, playing on the TV caught my attention entitled 'Dior Circus Come to Town', a show hosted at The Savoy in 1950. An anchor from the BBC with a musky voice was commenting 'Christian Dior, French creator of the new look, valued at 30.000 pounds 30 dresses go on parade… It's all for show and look only – to buy, you must go to Paris'. Isn't this, afterall, what luxury should have always been about? Why would luxury fashion brands nowadays compete with each other in number and size of stores (of course, larger and larger)?
I wonder if this obssessive quest to produce hundreds of thousands of bags and shoes will, in the near future turn into a waste of Miuccia Prada's unique talent to produce the most innovative apparel and accessories, with the most surprising catwalk shows or fashion installation… Gucci's outstanding quality leather goods will become obsolete with more and more predictable designs…and Armani's legendary and timeless elegance will soon be a matter of the past in between the hundreds of Jeans, Exchange, Emporio – all labels predominantly made in Asia.
That is why, I find Dolce & Gabbana's recent London store opening as a powerful statement, bringing their Italian 'savoir faire' in men's tailoring with the goal of 'turning British men into Latin lovers' (interview in The Times). They did not open on Saville Row, the quintessence of British tailoring, but carved out a realistic positioning for their men's tailoring collection, with a classic luxury store on New Bond Street, a subtle blend between their Italian roots and British touches.
I cannot help but wonder what is the actual long term strategic vision on luxury positioning of Prada, Ferragamo, Armani or Gucci opening hundreds of stores in the past 3 years in both mature and emerging markets around the world, from Asia, Europe to the U.S. and South/LatinAmerica? And their stores look identical (same interior design by the same architect) and the exact same product selection.
Is it proximity to consumers or a hunger to cash in on nouveaux riches who prefer to buy locally given the hassle of taking a visa, the lack of travel culture and lifestyle or simply because this is the best and most evident way to show off among their piers? As all above brands make more than half of their sales from accessories (bags and shoes), the focus on volume is evident. More Koreans, Indonesians or Russians will find themselves wearing the very same Prada bag or Ferragamo pair of shoes…
In the case of men's brands such as Zegna or Canali which operate hundreds of stores worldwide, proximity is justified by their Made to Measure (Su Misura) service but also the fact that they address a completely different consumer target (successful men in different walks of society, whose aim is not to show of).
And this 'conquer' the world retail strategy is not new to Italian luxury fashion brands. One of the early 'masters' of retail expansion, with hundreds of franchised stores worldwide has been Max Mara. Although family owned, Max Mara has been gradually losing its luxury positioning, for several reasons – the lack of adapting to nowadays communications tools (Max Mara launched their first ever site less than 4 years ago) not to mention the confusing mix between 5 different labels under the Max Mara umbrella, some at low price points, adding confusion and lack of differentiation.
The Max Mara owner family might have the backing of their financial investments (they own major stakes in one of Italy's largest banks) does not seem to make up for lost ground in terms of positioning, identity and inconsistency – especially in retail. Even in London, one of the most important luxury shopping hubs of the world, the Max Mara flagship on Bond Street features a strikingly different (old) retail concept, which is unrecognizable to a store featuring the new retail concept, in Milan or Shanghai. Is Max Mara's notable absence from India a sign that identifying local franchise partners has become much more challenging and not necessarily because of market conditions but the lack of wareness of the brand and an uncertain future.
French giant Louis Vuitton has probably best understood the danger of over-exposure and excessive visibility and has been quick to react in adapting in retail development strategy – open less stores and focus on opening large Maison stores, in the biggest cities in the world, each with a distinct architecture and strongly enganged with the local lifestyle and culture (each Maison store of Vuitton features art exhibition spaces promoting local artists).
The offering and service in Maison stores is also upgraded from a regular store, with Personalization and Bespoke service exclusively available at this type of stores. Opening (recently) permanent in-house Ateliers such as the one at the Vuitton store in Soho NY is also a major departure from the travelling or pop up exhibitions. This way, consumers can have a first hand experience and understanding craftsmanship. Vuitton's resistance to open within airports is also showing huge benefits in terms of differentiation (there is only one Vuitton store in an airport – at Seoul's Incheon, but it is more a shopping mall within an airport. The absence of Vuitton products at outlet shopping centres which are mushrooming in Europe is also a major differentiating factors.
But Italian luxury brands cand learn from Italian luxury brands too. It is the case of Valentino, taken over since last year by a Qatar investment fund, which under the leadership of Stefano Sassi has been concentrating on directly operated stores, limiting francising and wholesale. Most importantly, the recent renovation and complete redesign of Valentino's Paris flagship and the annoucement of the upcoming 2.000 sqm store opening on New York's Fifth Avenue reflects Sassi's sensible strategy to open fewer but larger stores, only in the major cities. This way, the brand will be able to preserve and even enhance exclusivity.
Another Italian luxury brand which may stand as a reference for the big players of Italian luxury is Loro Piana. The family owned group has made no compromise in terms of store sizes and has focused on relevance, more than proximity when it comes to retail expansion. Given its exceptional sports products, Loro Piana is opening temporary stores in major upscale holiday destinations such as St Moritz or Gstaad for winter sports; Capri, Portofino and Porto Cervo for summer yachting collections and St Tropez and Forte dei Marmi for summer lifestyle.
'Diffusion' or 'second lines' are also a means of avoiding the risks of dilution of luxury positioning, unless the lines have a specific, well define target and concept such as in the case of Moncler

New Zealand Birdlife
Hear the birds sing!
At Paradise Valley Springs, you can often see and hear the wild native New Zealand birds; Bellbirds, Tui, Fantails, Tomtits, and many more. You will also spot introduced European Yellow Hammers with their bright yellow colouring, and markings similar to the Sparrow.
We have a wild pair of Kereru (native wood pigeons) named Ma and Pa who live at the park year round, and many more call our park home during Springtime.
Look out for our free-ranging pukekos, who enjoy a good scratch and will never say no to pellets. Also take a moment to look around when you are visiting our Lions - you will often see Kingfishers just above the Lion area and also Blue Herons high in the trees above with their distinctive sqwark.
Extensive predator control within our park and surrounding areas helps keep our slice of Paradise a little safer for our wild feathered occupants. Stoats, rats, weasels, possums, cats and hedgehogs prey on birds, including their eggs and nestlings. If you want to keep the birds flourishing, controlling pests is a must, especially prior to the breeding season in late winter/early spring. Setting traps, and laying poisons (toxins) in bait stations are suitable methods of control.
Learn more on the Animal Pests pages of the Department of Conservation website.

Pyle Waterproof Headphones
An underwater iPod does little good without underwater headphones. The Pyle waterproof headphones wrap around the ear and sport in-ear earbuds built to stay in, even in the midst of rigorous training. It can be tricky to keep the 4-foot cord out of the way, but having the Top 40 playing during seemingly endless laps may be worth it. One possible, and simple, solution: run the cord under your swimsuit so that the suit's straps and/or waistline keep it close to the body.

Antony Colquhoun is a homebody, he relies heavily upon on his family, so when he did not come home one night back in October, his brother Aiden immediately became concerned.
After a few days, his mobile phone began going straight to message bank, rather than ringing first and his family's worry grew.
Mr Colquhoun has not been seen for almost a month and his family are worried because not only is his absence out of character but he also has bi-polar and is not believed to have any medication with him.
The 26-year-old was last seen on October 12, his brother had a conversation with him at the home they share that afternoon before his best friend saw him about 11pm.
Mr Colquhoun had been having a difficult time, when his brother spoke to him at their Leake Street home in Bayswater but his brother said he felt confident he was okay after their chat.
"I sat down and had a chat with him because I knew that he was feeling a bit down, at the end of the conversation though, I believed that he was happy and it didn't cause me any worry to leave him alone that night," he said.
"I said I'm always here, I love you, if you need anyone to speak with, I'm here to speak."
His brother spent the night at his girlfriend's house that night and when he returned his brother was not there.
He has had to take time off work because he is finding it difficult dealing with his brother's disappearance.
"I couldn't really function at work," Mr Colquhoun said.
"I'm fearing the worst at the moment.
"I fear for his safety and well being."
His mother Julie Colquhoun said her son had shown no indication that he was planning on going anywhere.
"From what we can tell, everything is still at the home, his toothbrush and all those things that if you were going away even for a couple of days, that you would take with you," she said.
Ms Colquhoun who is from Manjimup, had spent the week prior to her son's disappearance in Perth.
"On Thursday morning, I travelled back to Manjimup and Thursday night he rang me and he seemed fine then, we ended the conversation with 'I love you and see you soon' there was no indication that he was going to disappear," she said.
Ms Colquhoun is worried about her son's well being.
"It's not conceivable to me that he could be looking after himself, especially now that he's got no medication," she said.
"You can't explain how you feel, it's nearly four weeks now and I just need to know he is okay."
Ms Colquhoun made an emotional plea for her son, to get in contact if he could.
"Antony if you are out there, please, please ring and let us know you're okay," she said.
"Please if anyone knows anything about Antony, if you've seen him in the last few weeks, please get in contact with the police."
He is described as having a fair complexion and is 182 centimetres tall with a medium build, brown hair and brown eyes.
He has a distinctive white patch of hair on one side, wears thick black plastic framed glasses and has a tattoo up the top of his right arm.
Mr Colquhoun was wearing an Atari t-shirt the last time he was seen.
Anyone who has information on his whereabouts is asked to call police on 13 14 44.

Semi-finals sorted - World Grand Prix quarter-finals round-up
PHIL TAYLOR remains on course for a ninth World Grand Prix title following a 4-0 win over Adrian Lewis on Friday night, as Raymond van Barneveld, Terry Jenkins and Andy Hamilton also progress to the semi-finals.
Taylor stormed into the last four with a straight sets win over his Stoke rival, setting up a tasty clash with in-form Terry Jenkins.
Taylor came from 2-0 down to win the first set of his quarter-final, with Lewis also missing darts for the second set as the defending champion powered to victory.
"The final scoreline is a bit misleading because I thought Adrian played well, but the only thing that mattered is that I won," said Taylor.
Jenkins was another comfortable winner on Friday night, defeating his Citywest Hotel flat-mate Andy Smith in straight sets in front of a 3,000-plus crowd.
Irish hopes in the event were ended when Jacko Barry suffered a 4-0 loss to 2008 runner-up Raymond van Barneveld, who now meets Andy Hamilton in the semis.
Hamilton booked his spot in the last four with a 4-1 win against Kevin Painter, hitting four ton-plus finishes in coming from a set down to take victory.
World Grand Prix quarter-finals results
Terry Jenkins 4-0 Andy Smith
Andy Hamilton 4-1 Kevin Painter
Phil Taylor 4-0 Adrian Lewis
Raymond van Barneveld 4-0 Jacko Barry
TERRY JENKINS stormed past flat-mate Andy Smith in straight sets to reach the semi-finals of the World Grand Prix.
The duo are sharing an apartment for the duration of the tournament at the Citywest Hotel, but put their friendship aside on the oche as Jenkins progressed.
Jenkins edged a high-quality opening set 3-2, with all five legs going with the throw.
After the first two legs were shared, Smith hit a 180 in the third but was denied a dart at a double as Jenkins opened with a 160, hit a 177 to leave 40 and took out a 13-darter.
Smith landed a 180 to set up a double 14 finish in the fourth, and also landed a 177 score in the decider, only for Jenkins to hit double top for the set.
Smith led in the second, hitting a 180 and double top, but Jenkins levelled and then punished three misses from Smith to level with a two-dart 76.
Jenkins then landed a 180 and took out a superb 114 checkout for the second set, which proved a telling blow.
He then led in the third, hitting double top to make it seven doubles from nine attempts in the game.
Smith hit scores of 140 and 180 in taking the second leg, but missed darts to win the next two as Jenkins stepped in twice to move 3-0 up in the game.
The duo secured breaks of throw in the fourth set's opening two legs, with Jenkins then landing a 180 and double ten to lead 2-1.
He then pulled clear of Smith in leg four, and posted double top to wrap up victory.
ANDY HAMILTON came from a set down to defeat Kevin Painter 4-1 and earn a place in the semi-finals of the World Grand Prix.
Hamilton produced a devastating display of finishing to reach the last four of the double-start tournament for the first time.
Painter took the first set 3-1, with Hamilton stepping in to take the first leg against the throw before missing double 16 for the second.
Painter stepped in to break on double ten, landed a 180 in setting up a 69 finish to lead 2-1 and then took the next against the darts following a missed double ten from Hamilton.
Hamilton led in the second before Painter hit a 180 and an 85 finish to level, before the pair traded finishes of 110 and 104 respectively to remain locked, with the Stoke ace taking the decider on double 16.
Further finishes of 110 and 91 from Hamilton put him in front in the third, before Painter posted a 13-darter, setting up a double 16 finish with a 177.
But a missed double 18 from Painter cost him as Hamilton landed double 16 to move 2-1 up in the contest.
The pair traded 180s in sharing the first two legs of set four, with Painter then taking out double top to lead.
Hamilton levelled, and then a missed double 12 for a 104 finish from Painter proved costly as Hamilton landed double 16 to take a crucial 3-1 lead in sets.
Painter did lead in the fifth, but Hamilton levelled with a 120 finish, landed a 180 in taking leg three and then powered to victory with a 149 checkout for a 12-darter.
PHIL TAYLOR remains on course for a ninth World Grand Prix title following a 4-0 win over Adrian Lewis in their all-Stoke quarter-final.
Taylor maintained his dominance over the youngster with a sensational display at the Citywest Hotel IECC.
Lewis has shown newfound maturity in winning two Players Championships recently alongside becoming a father and reaching the quarter-finals of the double-start event, but failed in his bid for a first ever televised win over Taylor.
Lewis actually led 2-0 in the first set, but Taylor hit back to snatch the deciding leg superbly and also took the second and third sets 3-2 before closing out victory.
"The final scoreline is a bit misleading because I thought Adrian played well, but the only thing that mattered is that I won," said Taylor.
"Adrian's been playing brilliantly recently and has grown up a little bit. If he'd been in the other half of the draw he may have got to the final, but he'll have plenty more chances.
"I don't think he realises how good he is, he will get to the top but he's got to be patient and work at it. He gets disappointed in himself and is his own worst enemy."
Lewis kicked off the match with a 15-darter and then broke Taylor's throw in leg two, hitting a 180 and double top.
Taylor landed a 180 in taking the third, and double top to level - but looked to have gifted Lewis a chance when he missed four darts to open the deciding leg.
However, he hit two 180s and then punished a missed bullseye from Lewis to take out double 16 for a 14-darter and the set.
Taylor also landed a 164 to win the second set's opener, but Lewis punished missed doubles to move 2-1 up - only to then waste two darts for the set in leg four.
Taylor hit double 16 to level, and then opened the decider with a 160 and 180, missing out on a potential nine-darter but landing double 16 to move 2-0 up.
The reigning champion then landed maximums in taking a 2-0 lead in set three, although Lewis hit double top to win the next two and level.
However, Taylor found another gear to open the deciding leg with a 160, and double eight earned him a three-set lead.
That proved a hammer blow to Lewis' hopes, with Taylor taking the fourth set's opener and then breaking throw, before hitting a 180 in an 11-darter to wrap up victory and a semi-final spot against Terry Jenkins.
RAYMOND VAN BARNEVELD ended Irish hopes at the World Grand Prix with a straight sets win against Jacko Barry.
Barry had defeated Mick McGowan and Steve Beaton to win through to the last eight on home soil, but was unable to repeat the magic against van Barneveld.
Barry actually won the opening leg, following three missed doubles from the Dutchman, but was denied a dart at a finish in the next three.
Van Barneveld wrapped up the set with finishes of 78, double eight and 76, for a 12-darter, in pushing ahead.
He landed a 180 in taking the second set's opener, only for Barry to twice level in taking the set to a decider.
The lorry driver from Stamullen landed a 180 in the fifth leg, but van Barneveld was first to the finish and took out double eight for a 2-0 lead.
The Dutchman led in set three on double four, but traded 180s with Barry and then missed three darts to extend the advantage as the Irishman took out double 16.
Barry then took out a fine 14-darter, but van Barneveld stepped up a gear to deny him the chance to take the set by winning the next two legs in style.
That proved a telling blow, with van Barneveld taking the first two legs of the fourth set, including a 14-darter against the throw, before hitting a fifth maximum of the match and double four to secure victory and silence the Dublin crowd.
"The crowd went mad for Jacko and it was one of the greatest games I've played in," said van Barneveld. "They were fantastic.
"Jacko deserved more than a 4-0 scoreline because he played well. I've played in front of these crowds a lot in the Premier League but it was new for him.
"I let him in to win the first leg but I was happy to win the first set. I'm pleased with how I'm hitting double 16 to start and happy with my game."
Van Barneveld takes on Andy Hamilton in the semi-finals on Saturday, and is taking nothing for granted in his bid to reach a second successive Dublin final.
"Andy scores really well and his double percentage is high, but it's a new game tomorrow and it's a 50-50 call," he added.
"He's playing great darts, he beat Phil Taylor in a Players Championship last weekend and he's a good player."

Short answer: eat. A lot. Not to the point that you constantly feel full and sluggish, but learn eat even when you're not that hungry. Chicken breast, lean beef, penut butter, wheat bread, milk, and a lot of other foods are great for this.
And start lifting heavy occasionally. Whatever you can safely lift for no more than 6-8 reps, maybe less, should be good. And start squating and deadlifting if you aren't already. But like others have said; don't just jump into heavy lifting without a little help and/or guidance.
It worked for me and I'm currently a lean 5'6 and 170. But there are a ton of other methods that may be more effective and/or easier on your body though, so just keep experimenting.

It is really very easy. I do no other exercises than the following:
Incline Bench
Bent Row
Seated Row
Occasionally lat pulldowns
I lift 3 times a week, eat at least 5 times a day, drink plenty of protein shakes and get plenty of good rest. I'm not really looking to get any bigger, so I just try to maintain a comfortably satiated feeling, but when I was actively bulking, I just drank low-fat milk every chance I got. The most effective weight-gaining exercise for me, in my opinion, was the squat. A hell of a lot of my weight is now in my thighs (and lower back).
In other words, your question was answered on page 1.
EDIT: I just noticed someone managed to convince you on the last page, anyway hopefully what I said will give you added motivation to shoot for that rainbow or something.

This origami video shows you how to make a simple square box. While it doesn't have a lid, you can easily make one by making a second square box that's slightly smaller (trim the edges by about 1cm). The larger original box you made will be a lid that fits over the smaller second box.
[singlepic id=363 w=320 h=240 float=center]
– 1 square sheet of paper
– second slightly smaller square sheet if you want to make a lid
– If you don't want to trim your own paper, consider buying paper like this >>
– In this video I use 150 x 150 mm origami paper (~ 6" x 6"). The final box comes out to be 53 x 53 x 26 mm
– dimensions will be roughly N/3 x N/3 x N/6, where N is the original edge length of your square paper
– 0.35N x 0.35N x 0.17 is a little more precise
– In the picture above I made a "bento box" by using a 12" x 12" piece of scrapbook paper for the large box and sheets of 6" x 6" paper for the smaller boxes that fit inside the large one.

Kraft used to have an ad campaign for Stove Top stuffing that depicted family members sitting down to dinner. Chicken. Potatoes. Some vegetable or other. And very long faces. Then, mom gets the bright idea to serve Stove Top and, suddenly, the sky is bluer! Birds are chirping in the trees, and everyone is smiling as if they'd just discovered a $20 bill in their pocket. It's a lovely--though intensely overstated--transformation. And Kraft makes a good point: Anything good can be better when accompanied by the right side dish.
Self-storage is no different. There's your standard storage operation--metal buildings, pavement, an office and manager. Then there's storage plus.
Now, the plus used to be the sale of retail products such as boxes, locks, tape and other packing supplies. These are still part of the entrée, but they're appearing with additional services: mailbox and truck rental, records management and standard office services, including the provision of photocopiers and fax machines. Some operators are increasing their value to the commercial sect by leasing land to cell carriers for their towers. Others are flourishing with complementary but separate businesses, such as carwashes, laundrymats, coffeehouses and can-redemption centers.
In this issue, you'll read how to convert your office space into a center for retail sales, the advantages to offering truck rental and how to operate a private postal center. You'll also read about the cost advantage to incorporating records storage into self-storage, and the pitfalls and benefits of working with cell-phone carriers. Finally, you'll read about facilities that have been successfully juggling multiple self-serve operations. It's "Stove Top Storage," coming your way.
Just remember that while the side dish makes the meal better, it can't ever replace the main course! The most important ingredient to this recipe is professional and organized management. Ancillary products and services can be a profitable accompaniment to your storage operation, but only if they exist simultaneously without detracting from the core business.
One final comment before I sign off: I have just returned from the Inside Self-Storage Expo in Las Vegas. On behalf of the magazine and tradeshow team, I'd like to extend our deepest gratitude to the suppliers, speakers and, above all, attendees who made the show an amazing success. It was another record-breaker. Please continue to call and e-mail with your feedback so we may make future shows even better. Thank you for your support of the industry and ISS.
Best wishes,

A dubious honor has been dubbed upon former UT coach Derek Dooley.
Athlon Sports has ranked Derek number one in their list of college football's "20 worst coaches at great programs."
Needless to say, Dooley struggled mightily finishing 2-14 against SEC teams and 15-21 overall.
He took over a program reeling from the departure of Lane Kiffin, who by the way is also on the list at #19 just behind current Florida coach Will Muschamp.

Pompey's 2009/10 starting 11 - left back
'The Herminator is the left back for Pompey in 2009/10', not my vote, yours - although these findings from the forum poll to determine who we think should be this left back, for the 11 players we will select, are thoughts that I do just about agree with to be honest...
I love The Herminator, his personality is infectious and he gives everyone a lift, 'but' I would still be tempted to bring in someone else 'but' other areas would certainly be a priority for me!
This poll was conducted in a thread in the Portsmouth Posts forum - click here.
So, 4-4-2 is what we are going with and James in goal and The Herminator at left back...
We now have to continue to fill in the blanks for our 2009/10 Pompey 11 - which we will select from the squad we currently have, well what is left of it!
Again we will do this in the Portsmouth Posts forum with the latest poll question we want answering, which asks:
2009/10 Pompey team - right back? - click here to vote.
Before we move on what are your thoughts on what the last forum poll concluded? You know what to do, thoughts below please guys...
