nice girls!
I love her quirky yet understated style. Very individual, it makes her quietly but undeniably memorable.
Wandering Minds
I'm a big, big fan of this one. Her overall mood matches her outfit. She's in a bubble of murmur.
The cuteness and awkwardness of her stand!
Love this picture!
love how the shoe laces match the dress! great attention to details!
The mocking glances of the girls behind are kind of sad :(

Maybe they are not mocking her.
Stunning! This is a very Balenciaga moment for me – but taken from the runway, and made real on the street.

She is very beautiful and your shoes are fantastic. Very cute!
Its HER shoes,
Not YOUR shoes…
Why dont you write in your own language, instead ?
Its pretty much wiser,
Love the dress!
I also like the two girls in the back
The blue and black and the red lips look great with her alabaster skin and dark hair, but her posture would surely make her mother cringe if she saw this photo.
Such an innocent face!
I really like the mixture of the "formal" dress and the converse!!
just WOW
GREAT shot
she s the cutest thing ever
good one !
What a beautiful face, she's perfect. Red lipstick on a face like hers is meaningful (in a way that it make sens without being obvious). And the dust of lace on her sleeve makes her look even more fragile. (And please excuse my bad English on every of my comments… I'm French!).
Nice laces

The socks and hr red lipstick make the look great shot
I love that it looks like the boringly dressed girls behind her are sort of laughing or gossiping about her – when she looks fabulous and original! This is a whole movie waiting to happen about how some girls (or boys) are brave enough to wear something different from the crowd. Love her!
Such a great pic! It really tells a story…Bravo.
like all that she's wearing except the socks, another color would have been better
love the pop pf turquoise color! This can help to create the look http://bit.ly/J03dE0
Very cool style, and the photography… genious!
This is a very interesting picture. The stance of the lady is somewhat a shy or awkward one, yet she also seems to be very comfortable with her style, the blue of the laces really matches well with the dress, and her dark hair along side her light skin really help bring out her lip colour. I also find it somewhat amusing of the two girls in the left of the picture that seem to almost be laughing at this girl (perhaps not), yet they are sporting that very annoying fashion of ripped jeans, not very well dressed themselves, although the right one has lovely hair. I like the photo in context with the background, I think it has much more charge and excitement, than if it were against a blank background. Nicely done!
Nice metropolitan outfit!!!
Nice pict!
The girl at the back is looking at her shoes… Or shoe laces… Or socks… What do I know?
A nice catch.
Check out the ladies talking smack in the background!
i want to take her to dinner.
This is what I love about inspiration pictures…even when the style of the picture is not one I'm likely to imitate, the color combinations featured can be easily replicated and reinterpreted in my own style. This is the case here, although for her, it certainly fits great!
Goodness…those stares, were they staged??
Tory Burch giveaway!
What I like the most about this photo are the two girls on the left. One is a photographer ready to take a picture of the shoes ? Fun and colorful.
her red lips…
from Turin with love
I am captivated by this image! Her peaceful almost defiant expression, her posture, the outfit (naturally), the onlookers and her beautiful face. Incredible!
I really like the two girls in the background smirking at you while you take the picture: very funny!
To me this girl totally stand out from the masses with her fragile pose and distinctive style. like!!
Wow. You really are a master at capturing the decisive moment.
her red lips…
- from Turin with love -
The girls at the background! :D
Love this look! Awesome sneakers and socks. Great cross-body bag…
Nice dress.
Thank you for shooting and posting this. From her vulnerability, to her implicit strength, to the girls' reactions – it's a story of adolescence! Great shot.
Look at the girls behind her…
how examined her!
Love the teal accents. Not the stares behind her.
Your pictures is always amazing!
Gorgeous, natural. Could be straight out of a GUSTAVE CAILLEBOTTE impressionist painting if it were painted in modern times.
such a great dress!
LOve brown&blue colour combination!
One of my favourite shades of blue! Glad you took this pic, even the people in the background are well-dressed! :)
I love the glances of the girls behind.
So unique and individual! This is what starts creativity!
Look at the girls in the background! So focused on the girl:)
Which leads even more of the attention at her
Karolina Natalia
one of my very favorite pics on your blog because it says much more than the regular "fashion" shots
Interesting combination.Her red lips give a freshness in her face!
Love that dress!
WOW, does this picture tell a story or what!?!?! Look at those girls behind her! And her posture is so awkward! Love it!!!
Interesting dress, not really a fan but the background is amazing. Love the two girls in the background look hot!
The picture is great, but my eye is drawn to the two girls in the back looking at the girl you are shooting :p
Such a pretty dress, would love to see it with some heels and a pretty clutch, but ofcourse that wouldn't suit this girl.
Love how her shoelaces match the dress
new outfit post
Love the dress !
This reminds me of high school. I've "pinned" it to my Beautiful Pictures board and my caption reads, "Who cares what they think."
She's beautiful, and beautifully and individually dressed. Love the story this picture tells.
I have never commented on any of your pictures before but I will on this one.
It goes beyond the girl and the outfit she's wearing, it tells a story. About fashion, identity, and confidence (or the lack of it). Looking at her awkward posture one might think that she is not really at ease (and maybe she isn't) but at the same time it takes great confidence to put on bright red lipstick in the morning (talking from experience I waited to be in my thirties to give it a try) and pull of such a quirky outfit.
While the two girls in the back have chosen a saver option to dress themselves (the prevailing aesthetic of t-shirt + jeans + sandals) and by such assimilate to most teens in the world, she has chosen to go her way and experiment with fashion. Using it as a tool to express herself. That's why you chose to shoot her and not the two girls…
But then again…all this is based on my assumptions, judgments and thoughts. The picture operates as a mirror. My mirror. The two girls might be saying: Wow, look at her cool socks and bleu laces!
Well done! Was it happenstance?
Love the pic!!!
What a brilliant shot. The world just seems to pause in her little bubble…
wow, very interesting picture.. especially the jealous (?) looks of the two girls behind her. She really stands out. Love the colours, the teal, brown and red go very well with her skin and hair. Really beautiful dress as well, anyone knows where it's from?
She is very special! I immediately like her. Those two girls behind her, though; can't make up if they accidently looked at her while laughing or if she was the joke. But that wouldn't bother me either; it takes strength to stand out from the crowd! Especially when you do it in a good way.
she looks like a ghost … but she is very sweet
Such a fun image…easy to imagine "thought bubbles"…everyone looks good.
My compliments will include the "tres chic shadow" of the gentleman on the right that also is wearing a combination of browns and blues. I will said it looks like her harmonized sartorial guardian angel.
LOVE this! Everything that was said about both the girl being photographed and the girls in the background. Did anyone else notice that the girls are also wearing the same sandals, just different colors?
The lace trim on the sleeve is so sweet, love this picture.
Scott, your work inspires everybody on the web. With no exaggeration (pardon my english, I'm french!), the way you and Garance took over the blogosphere and find a new way of expressions is really inspiring.
I'm not a fashion blogger, I'm in fond of cinema (it shows how much you put yourself outside the "fashion industry") and I love to picture the great life that could be seen on (on or at, damn I never know!) the big screen and I think yours would clearly deserve a movie!
Here is the link of my article (in french and english): http://www.jaivuaucinema.com/2012/06/ovvac-37-scott-schumanthe-sartorialist.html
If you have some times to loose or if you want to make fun of my english lol, you can read it!
I think she's very young, but looks lovely:):)
Wow she is really beautiful. I love that old fashioned dress on her.
this is a great shot.
The outfit and girl are cute but the people in the background really make the shot.
Some people think those girls behind her are mocking her?
Thats not what I see.
LOVE! Adolescence captured. The girls behind her are wearing whatever Seventeen Magazine is telling them to (they even have identical shoes on), but you can bet after seeing this, they went to the next store to buy turquoise shoelaces.
I also love that in this shot it's not just about the subject — there is so much movement going on in the background. Truly a story being told.
Like the outfit of the girl behind, laidback outfit with white t-shirt, jeans and sandals..
The dress is so pretty, and the girl has a lovely face! I love how she matched the rather elegant dress to a pair of shoes that could not be more casual!
Initially, adoring the colors of the center subject but not really liking the outfit but loving the freshness and originality of her way of thinking……then there're the "mean girls" off to the side with their body language giving off "what's so special about her looks?" and they make me love the center subject even more!
Love the skin tone / dress / lipstick mix
Amazing dress!
Lovely young woman with a cool schoolgirl chic!
I don't usually comment on blogs I follow, but this time I can't help it. The moment I saw this picture, it just stroke me. This picture is all about your blog is.
This girl might look insecure but she dares look different from others. And those girls at the back, mocking or making comments on this girl just reflects the reality of facing 'the street' and people's look.
Your blog, is about self-expressing through clothes and style. It is about being ourselves, daring and bearing. The thing is that it is not necessarily easy and it can represent a big challenge. This girl seems to live this challenge, and being featured on your blog is a kind of reward.
To me this picture says 'Look, you may want to make fun of me but here I am standing out of the crowd'
Your blog is all about standing out of the crowd, and thank you for giving us so many reasons to dare being ourselves, this girl give us a big lesson. Let's be proud of being what we want. Great job !
Quirky and cute. Story of the odd girl being made fun of by the "normal" girls. She stands out.
I love the two in the background looking on.
This picture is definitely worth at least a thousand words. The color combination, her doll face, the pairing of the dress with the sneakers, all so chic. The way the girls are reacting in the background is also very interesting.
I love this. She is going her own way.
Wow – what I love the most about this shot is the two girls in the background and the looks on their faces. Obviously, I have no idea what is actually going on, but it seems like an image out of a high school hallway: 'awkward nerdy girl with style', gets made fun of, behind her back, by the 'mean girls'. Completely my own perspective and not meant to be at all realistic – I don't mean to offend anyone.
This picture has such a story! So intriguing..
You've expressed a singular moment in time. Your subject has the power of personal style as she evokes a reaction from her surroundings. Beautiful.
the enlarged view of this photo shows the world weary expression of the girl, yet she seems to express her hope in the beauty of life with her clothes.
it is wonderful to see such care taken in putting together an outfit, from the cute lace tee underneath the great fabric chosen to match beloved shoes. i have no doubt the dress was home sewn.
i for one was so captivated by the main subject of this photo i didn't notice the background girl until reading other's comments :)
I think we all want to believe the two girls in the back are smirking little *&()%)(.
But we don't know! The story of Snow White being told here may have nothing to do with the reality of the moment. In that split second of the photograph, they may have been admiring the shoes or looking at them while laughing about something unrelated.
she looks great…and so the the man behind her!
Greatest thing about this photo is the look on those girl's faces in the background! Don't know what they think of this outfit but I love it!
i don't know why,but this reminds me a lot of "closer",maybe because the background,maybe because her youth and freshness,the way she carry her bag
I like those shoes and socks :)
beautiful..love what she's wearing so so much!!!
wow, I love this shot! so amazing!
Beautiful look!
I'm confused. I love the sassy, standout look of her outfit, but the way she's posed is apologetic. Stand up, girl. You did good, be proud. I hope you are not a model, being paid to look helpless. The world does no need more helpless women.
I really like her outfit.
Que meigo adorei…
Visite o meu blog http://tucafashion.blogspot.com.br/
love that contrast between her and the people at the back, excellent image!
Interesting outfit. Love her dress!
Perhaps my comment will have no connection to the style of the girl, however what I found interesting about this pictures, are the two girls on the left side of the picture. I am not sure if it was done on purpose, but looks cool!
Notice the catty girls in the back , also notice how no one is taking there picture!
This is one those photos that 5 or 10 years from now, that girl is going to look back at this photo and realize what it was saying. No matter how people perceived her back then, this photo was saying, "You're gonna be great."
I hope she realizes that she's beautiful and knows it's people like her who make the world grow and be new.
Oh, her dress is beautiful. I love the blue laces too.
hahaha….one of my fav shots. i like photographs with stories.
She is not comfortable in this world. Perhaps somewhere darker and quieter would suit but not this.
I love her quirky style & her posture is so cute.
The timing of this photo was perfect with the mocking girls in the back..goodness.
she's so cool with an " i don't care" attitude! i loooove! <3
And it's also crazy how people seem to be judging these girls in the background for judging the girl.. When you're doing exactly the same thing, judging their looks, etc. Little do you know, these girls might not be mean or bitchy, simply intrigued.
amazing photo
Geek chic (and I mean that in a good way!).
I love this picture! There is so much meaning to what might be a very straight forward shot. My eye went straight to the two girls admiring the subject's style. Maybe they are deciding to take her picture also, since one is holding a camera in hand ready to sneak a shot. I love the subjects calm demeanor as she stands in the middle of a busy scene. I love the American flag that hangs above it all reminding us that we are all different yet the same. I love this picture!
I have never been to USA. But I read your blog more than two years, and sometimes I think that photos of yours made New York a place quite familiar to me. "I've seen this man!" – I think, like I saw him in person walking near Grand Park. This picture is so vivid that I almost hear city noises.
fab outfit…great pic
Ridiculously cute. Love the pops of teal everywhere!
good pics reallyyy!
the best android apps
Beauty! Like it!
So much story in one picture. Heartbreakingly beautiful. I just love it.
this outfit inpires! :-)
So many styles and fashion on one picture! love it!
Adorable outfit. I love the sneakers
I really love what you have captured here. The girl looks amazing, her akwardness and imperfection of the outfit simply make her perfect! (I really hope those two girls are just admiring her, and not laughing at her!).
Aaaaaaand…..the 90s are officially back.
I like the girls behind her, "Look at that outfit! So cool. Did you see her dress and shoes?"
:D the girls in background
What everyone else said – wearing vintage evening glamour with converse is inspired. Great timing with the shot! (Those girls wish they could be so cool!)
I am a sucker for matchy-matchy. I love how perfectly her shoes + socks match that dress she's wearing. Brava.
Spot on! Girls in the back and the looks on their faces! aremore interesting than the model. Great shot.
this outfit inspires!
I don't know why but she looks kinda sad…
Consultant Style Advisor
I love the girls behind, staring at her shoes and socks. She is totally unique!
of course the beauties in back make it a cut above, and the gent in the blue tie …..
love her….and the girls in the back….she looks so comfortable…she wears her clothes
hmm a lot of these comments are VERY judgemental of the girls in the background just because they have a more typical style, but actually the girl with the white top her jeans are the perfect cut and colour. It's great to appreciate people who have fun with fashion but i don't think we need to make bitchy comments about those who dress more normal and everyday. They probably have different interests. The girl's dress is stunning though!!
This photo is perfect. I imagine you being so thrilled to have captured this moment with the girl's in the background with their gaze over at her. So many stories in this photograph.
I'm sorry, but the girls in the background look very judgmental to me, and they don't seem to be liking this woman's taste. I find that in itself rather awful. As to the woman's style, I like it.
Great colors, cute girl, unattractive, scared posture. Get a bold spirit Girl, to go with your bold clothes!
She is very beautiful!! And,I think her shoes are fantastic and Very cute!! And,I think that she is very cute!!
Wait, how did this one get by me? Her awkward poise is that of innocence. The shade of lipstick against her skin gives her a warm glow.
This is probably one of your funnier shots.
This is a fabulous photo.
The central element is this young woman. From her, four figures seem to move around and complete what she symbolizes.
At the far right, a woman walks in the opposite direction that this young woman goes to and her boring style and substance don´t stand out from the crowd. She disappears from her. She´s everything this young woman is not. She symbolizes what is uncatchy.
At the left, two provocative girls look at her, at the same time making fun but admiring her. They´re beautiful, possibly have artistic tendencies, but they are like all common beautiful girls everywhere in the world. Never did they had the courage to dress like her, and maybe by looking at her, they will copy her style, but will never have her substance. They symbolize what is beautiful but without a soul of its own.
But for me, it was really curious to see how this young woman´s style and substance was solidly supported in the background by the man´s classical style. What gives us the sense of meaning and timelessness of this young woman´s style is this subtle blend with the men´s style, in my opinion.
She´s bold but balanced, strange but comfortable, shy but full of fire and she symbolizes what a bright future stands in front of us in a quiet moment of the present. Only in the U.S.A. can we see this.
I´m sorry if i was too long or pretentious, but, again, this is a remarkable picture.
I like that you captured the two girls in the background. They seem to laugh at the girl's shoes or socks, but I think there's nothing more rewarding in fashion than evoking some kind of reaction… even if it's jealousy or hatred. There's nothing worse than indifference.
It's hard to tell whether the girls in the background are just checking out that lovely young woman's look or being snarky. If they are being mean girls, I hope they come to understand that she looks far more interesting and cool than they do. (And I hope she stands up tall and strong and owns her coolness!)
I'm thinking this is some very good photo shopping. She looks like she is floating. Still love the outfit.
Love the shot, especially all of the peripherals! The girl has a lovely, understated look, and she's very pretty. The only thing that I dislike is that she doesn't look comfortable in this shot. Whether it was her being caught off guard, or she's generally shy, but I just wish she straightened up and really took a minute to enjoy her gorgeous look with a bit more confidence.
Green of envy, should be the name of this picture.
Such a baby, awkward and nervous at the prospect of being saved for prosperity I would guess!
The girls behind her look like they're talking smack about her. Hilarious.
This shot will become iconic.
This is a great picture. The background is as interesting as this amazing girl. Wow, don't see that often. Plus I just downed a bottle of wine. Maybe that is way I am so impressed, but who cares, this is a great pic.
Another great story told in this picture.
Love everything about this shot…her awkward pose, her dress, her bright blue shoelaces, and the fact that though time stands still for her, the rest of NY goes on.
I agree with some of the comments above.
I LOVE how you've captured this awkward snow white beauty.
They LOOK at her mockingly, but secretly applaud her for her bravery and uniqueness.
Amazing girl *_*
Love the harmony of chocolate brown and cyan in her outfit a wonderful and unlikely fit!
Scott -
This is great. I read avidly and rarely comment, but felt I had to…I still don't know why exactly. "Kendal Lo" drew the parallel to high school mean girls which is exactly what I saw when I looked at this. However instead of the girl I instantly saw myself and relived the exact same looks I used to get. Today, my style is still entirely my own, however I get more looks of admiration than disdain. Perhaps my perception has changed of the onlookers and what their stares mean. My confidence has certainly grown which has taught me that how you wear something is just as important as what you wear.
Now I assume the girls behind are malicious however I acknowledge I can't truly know. However this was my first and lingering impression in spite of fight against prejudice.
I've read that you often try to "arrange" your subjects in such a way that appears natural or creates a sort of character of them in the moment (my regurgitation of your ideas), however this picture is so involved with the various figures in the background that I'm curious how you orchestrated it. It is brilliantly done, and like I said much of that is because of the relationship between background and the figure.
She is beautiful. She looks awkward and unsure of herself but seeking her own voice in a world that is so busy with its own norms. This actually gives me a sense of hope as well. I see her inner strength displayed by her unique beauty which sets her apart from others. Though it may separate her now you can see the potential within her to blossom above the rest. Anyways, there are my thoughts.
I love it and everything else you do. I don't think I would have developed my own sartorial confidence and breadth of knowledge if it were not for your work's influence. So thanks for being awesome. Stay classy Scott.
Cinderella and the stepsisters!! Nice shot :)
WOW, simply awesome. Genius shooting Mr. Schuman !
Love her dress. She is worlds apart from those ordinary looking girls behind. Beautiful girl – beautiful shot.
Haters going to hate. Shine on.
She looks great!
I wish she'd stand up straight! Nice dress – and I like the swirl of people behind.
Like turquoise lace and dress detail combination.
Notice the two girls laughing on the left – I don't know why as she's so pretty and is dressed in a very cute kooky way. She's really beautiful!
The two girls on the left-hand side definitely noticed her too.
She looks great… and so the two girls on the left, and the guy on the right… :)
But she looks like she is floating above the ground! Does anyone else see this?? cool.
Love how she stand out from teh crowd!
What a great pic, I lover everything about it from her style to the expression on her face!!
It's almost as if her kneecaps are part of the outfit. Love the shot.
The girl with the red lips is cute, but it's interesting how most of the commentators assume the two girls in the background are "mean
girls". Maybe they are just posing for the photographer they see on
the street as is the girl with the red lips.
Stand up staight, pretty girl and own it. Looks great.
I don't think the girls in the background are nefarious, just observing the spectacle of a photograph being taken.
…..she needs a skateboard!
(What did the girls on the back say):
- Look, they're taking her picture!
- What's so stylish about her, I look better!
- Come on, don't be jealous, just smile, we can get photographed by Scott Schuman!
- Actually, I like her dress… and the sneakers are not bad…
Snow White and the mean girls, brought to you by The Sartorialist!
I love how she looks so uninterested while she is causing sensation on the street (and the web).
Great pic Sart. And go Snow!
haha look at the girls behind her :)
That dress is amazing. Wow. Great styling and beautiful girl as always.
Wish I could meet this girl! She seems so interesting.
And I love the two girls in the background mumbling; they wish they had that much style :P
Defenitely one of your best photos. Love the way she is possing and the two girls, who look like they are gossiping, or justing watching, I don't know. But its so perfect. Love the colors in the picture and that girl.
I LOVE this.
It find it amusing that the girls in the background of the photo with their mocking/judgmental glances have absolutely no idea that the very girl they are seemingly making fun of is about to be featured on a fashion blog for her style and beauty.
Never, ever be bothered by what others think of you – be YOURSELF!
Love the dress and the socks, but not the shoes. Her posture and the shoes make this overall look feel more little girl instead of grown up woman. Not sure if that's what she was going for…
i love this shot – i dont think the girls behind are mocking or making fun of the subject, i dont get that feeling at all…to me they appear to be more curious as to why you would pick a girl with those kind of shoes whereas their outfits are more to the 'norm' of a young girl….its a great shot! great city scene…love the metallic dress too…
So perfect. The way she is standing, the two friends looking at her, one with a camera, possibly herself wanting to take a photo of your subject. The man in the suit…everything is just amazing. And how pretty is the dress and her tennies!!!
I am rather disturbed by how everyone has jumped to the odd conclusion the two girls are somehow showing animosity to her or Scott. I doubt they are. But people obviously are very ready to think that women hate each other, and that makes me sad. You people need to clear your minds. Its not the girls that are acting mean, its you.
is that a christopher kane s/s 2012 dress or a knock-off? regardless, the ensemble is sublime because she is being herself, which is the most beautiful thing any of us can clothe ourselves with.
Just love the two girls behind, checking her out in this moment like they're debating with you and your choice of subject.
Your outfit is just perfect, so feminine and sexy!!! I love the black lace dress!
Don't get me wrong, I love the photo, I love the dress, I love the face + awkward stance . . .
But do people still get kudos for (barely) matching laces and socks to the dress?? I mean cmon, you can picture her out shopping for exactly this pair of colors to "go with". Haven't we gotten past MATCHING and onto COMPLEMENTING?
I like the girls on the left. They look healthy and simple.
i just love the two girls in the background
wow it's kind of amazing how she pulls off the converse with that dress!
feminine and yet striving for comfort.innocence and sweetness from this girl.
This is gorgeous! Always love to see such unexpected combinations.
love her red lips and casual look…
Wauw… breathtaking…
The entire composition of this picture is one in an million. Her pale skin against the dominant colors in her outfit. The fancy fabric against the allstars. The uncomfort in her pose and the two girls that are walking by.. Amazing picture Scott Schuman! This has to go in your (hopefully) new book!
I love the background – with the equally pretty girls gossiping. Such a great snap.
She's levitating !
Her expression, her body language captured in the picture is just perfection and I love the mean cheerleaders in the back giving her a look…. it freshes up the whole scene
great dress nicely matching shoes and also the satchel !
Love the color mix of turquoise and red though body language doesn't appeal to me
Love this shot – she reminds me of Ellen Page/Juno.
I love the girls talking shit in the background.
This is what I love about New York. What works in a smaller town is not so celebrated in Manhattan. Different and unusual is looked at with curiosity elsewhere but is photographed and applauded in NYC. As a hat wearer, I can attest to the fact that I get second looks from people on the street every day, both quizzical and admiring. I'm sure this photo did not have to be 'staged' at all.
oooh, she's lovely!
Such a beautiful photo… she looks like the kind of girl Robert Smith writes songs about.
Interesting that the 2 girls on the left are deciding whether they like the outfit or not…or maybe they were just jealous of the girl getting her picture taken by Scott Schuman.
It looks like everyone in the background is posing for you too! Beautiful shot. I can't wait to live in New York City.
Wish I could meet a girl like this.
A young Geena Davis!
Nice one! But it's really wired..it looks like she have benn pasted in this bakground.. looks like she is floating..
I love the subject's quirky style but for my honestly the girl with the camera stands out not only for her beauty but also because she is dressed in alot simpler than the subject and stood out to me as a simple yet effortless beauty with less makeup than the subject too.
This isn't just a beautiful photograph of a great outfit on a beautiful young woman, it's a story! I see Cinderella…those two snickering girls off to the side are her wicked step sisters. We know who is the most beautiful! We know who will win the fashion prince! Love it!
Lovely photo. I love her blue dress with matching sneaker laces.
The girls in the back seem intrigued.
But look at the girl in the white shirt and jeans with holes behind her – you should take a photo also of her!
This photograph is incredible. The awkward, unassuming genius of the girl in the fantastic dress and sneakers versus the "mean girls," straight out of a Delias catalogue. Those girls can snicker all they want, but the subject of the photo will always stand out because of her creative style.
haha, love how the people who say they never comment have written so much! can't read all these to know what they have said, but the girls in back are so super cute, i imagine they are all friends, and are smiling with her, not laughing at her. CUTUMS!
I have to agree with most commenters that this is an incredible, incredible image. I love her outfit, the colours, textures, accessories, the way that she's playing with items and has a true sense of personal style. And I love the way that those girls in the background add a greater narrative to the photograph.
As someone who's guilty of checking out other girls' outfits, I think the girls in the background are liking her style! It's super sweet and age-appropriate.
I know who the cool kid is.
the two girls in the background do not seem to be smirking nor malicious to me.
i don't know why some people assume that they are…sometimes we project too much of ourselves into a photograph.
in any case, messenger bags are terrible for your back
awesome back side ^_^
honestly I like those two girls much more
What I like about this picture is that the girl you're shooting has a unique style, but she does look a bit shy. And the funny thing are the two girls in the back. They stare at the girl who's begin photographed, even laughing about at her (maybe), but the thing is that you're shooting HER and not them in their convenient style. So GO shy girl with the original outfit!
This is why I still read your blog by the way among the oversupply of other street style blogs! X An-sofie from Belgium
there is a great narrative here. personal style trumps all that is fashionable / trendy. she may be "quirky" to the girls in the back yet she is the center of attention. nice shot!
Great photo, and love her quirky look! Tell her to watch out for those MEAN GIRLS behind her!!!
The man behind with the (possibly gabardine) suit in brown, mix of blues & mauve in shirt & tie, perfect white handckerfief in the breast pocket, and I pressume.. tassel loafers; it's more important to me than the "wanna-be" posh girls, and of course, the main subject of the pic. This man exhales class!!
love this pic:) also love the way the 2 girls behind her are looking at her.
I think the photo captures the subtle gorgeous shy girl in the forefront as the two obvious pretty run of the mill girls are in the background. They both really want to be her but they can't,because this young lady is beautiful, in every way.
Wow… this photo has so many stories that can be told. So funny how you capture the girls in the back lurking. =)
It's funny how the girls behind her make fun of her… I find the photo really well-taken. I don't know if it was made in purpose but anyways, that photo is just perfect. (and the girl is absolutely gorgeous.)
oh the individualist vs the conformists….. love the accidental mise en scene
Lovely. Something very 'japanese' in her posture.
I love every detail…the dress and the girl.
Her posture might seem awkward to some, but I see strength and confident in those eyes…and that's what counts for me…
amazing composition.
Gorgeous girl!
I really dislike those girls in the back. They look like they're laughing at her….
Those girls in the back make the photo really sad… But her dress. I die.
Hoooo ella parece un vampiro. Beaty girl, really!
The snarky girls make her look that much more admirable and endearing – excellent shot!
Come on! It's a photo taken in a split second that captures other people's slice of life too. I'm surprised your usually savvy readers see this as girls being jealous and judgmental of each other (popular culture stereotypes). They seem more in their own world and just happen to be looking in the direction of your subject.
Interesting shot… and interesting the conclusions people jump to about the women in the background.
I can't quite get my head around it. Like someone said before, she looks like she's floating above the ground. The shadows sort of seem off too. Dare I ask if it is a photoshop composite?
Gossip girls in the back ;) I love her quirkiness!
She looks like photoshopped into this background, especially looking at the shoes, it feels like she's hovering over the ground, it's this feeling and her straight look that makes people feel attracted to the picture I guess.
One of your best pictures ever. Do it in black and white and frame it. this is the moneyshot.
actually,crop the guy out in the suit, and just have the 3 girls. Brillian!
Awesome dress and make up on the girl in front.I am delighted we are getting back to matching rather then "going together" it make more impact.
Great photo as always. Scott's most interesting shots are group like this, and its interesting to see what pople make of them. Well…except this time.
The two girls in their beat up shorts and plain clothing are obviously not looking to be photographed, and are NOT laughing at anyone. they are just walking and talking with each other and laughing at something. Watch less TV, people.
Great composition, the young lady displays all the characteristics of a wallflower, just like her dress. Plucked from obscurity to center place she displays her insecurity – just beautiful. The two wannabe "it" women in the background captures an apt reflection of today's society. It is interesting that one of the women is quite interested in the wallflowers shoes or bag and carries a camera, perhaps a potential street fashionista?
The bold beauty stands out against the dull and the hazy. Her dress is beautiful, and the quirkiness of her shoes make her all the more fantastic. Great capture
the girls in the back steal the show i love their boho chic look :)
Love her awkward pose. Her originality being laughed at by some skanks in the background. This has to be one of my favourites. Nice one Scott. Wallace.
Her posture is awful, she would look even better if she wasn't standing so unnaturally.
This is a pearl. The ones behind are CZ – flashy and fake. Takes something else to appreciate such beauty despite her posture. And that face – exceptional.
I LOVE that outfit. I love mixing dressy with casual, it's a great way to avoid looking boring. And I think she knows she's pretty. I do that awkward thing too, to be cute, and I don't look anywhere near that beautiful. She's not insecure. And yes, it looks like the girls in the back are mocking, but I might be wrong. It makes an amazing picture, though.
wow she really stands out! :)
The girl in the background holding the clipboard has pretty turquoise nail polish. I wonder if she's noticing the blue/aqua/cyan of the outfit on the girl in the foreground because it's a favorite color?
Lovely! She looks adorable in that outfit!

In a new post on the Zend Developer Zone (by Daniel Vecchiato) pointing out a new tutorial that combines the Zend Framework with another framework, CodeIgniter, to enhance each's power.
The tutorial (Using Zend Framework components in Code Igniter) will introduce you to an easy way to integrate the Zend Framework libraries (a lot!) into Code Igniter PHP Framework.
In particular we will build an example in which we use the Zend_Service_Flickr to retrieve images based on a specific tag ('climbing' in this tutorial).
The tutorial steps you through a quick installation of the Zend Framework, but assumes that you already have CodeIgniter installed. Then it's a simple matter of combining the two, extending the Zend Flickr service client and grabbing photos related to "climbing".

NHL Game Night 12/30: Canadiens at Lightning
Ou est Lecavalier et St. Louis?
Mike Smith allowed just 1 goal on 30 shots, but then allowed both Montreal shooters to score in the penalty shot session for the shootout loss.
First Period
13:18 TB Prospal (7), (Malone, St. Louis)(PP)
Second Period
Third Period
00:46 MTL Latendresse (5), (Lapierre, Kostopoulos)
MTL- Kovalev, Lapierre
TB- Jokinen
The Lightning's best players tonight were, in no partocular order, Smith, Ryan Malone, Andrej Meszaros, and Evgeny Artyukhin. Absent from that list? Vincent Lecavalier and Martin St. Louis. It's not rocket science: if those two don't score, the Lightning are going to struggle to defeat quality opponents like Montreal. They're getting excellent goaltending and some secondary scoring. Heck, they're even getting some inspired play from their defensemen at times. So now it's up to Lecavalier and St. Louis. They need to turn up the volume over the next two months to get this team over the hump.
It was nauseating to be outnumbered by Canadiens fans in our own barn. They were well behaved, at least. I mean, I wasn't stepping over drunks and weaving between fist fights like I would if we were invaded by Flyers fans. Still, I would've loved nothing better than to answer their annoying little "Go Habs Go" chant with a little "Go Home Habs."
Matt Smaby had a team high 7 hits in 15:47 filling some of the ice time vacated by a scratched Marek Malik. He did some good things. He's looked better in this recall; good enough for me to think that maybe he needs to replace Jamie Heward on the roster. He made some mistakes again, sure. But, like I said after the last game, as long as they are mistakes of aggression I'm more willing to live with them. And, it's not like his veteran bretheren on the Lightning blueline don't make mistakes in their own rights. Steve Eminger is working hard to make me go gray early in life by backing off shooters and routinely letting them walk the puck into the slot.
Paul Szczechura was -1 with 1 hit and was 57% on draws in 10:34. He's taken a bit of a step back since that amazing game against the Pens.
Steven Stamkos had 1 shot, 2 hits, and was 67% on draws in 11:45. He had one really awful power play shift in the third period. Other than that I thought he was ok.

Strike that – it was nearly two years ago. The freezing and subsequent thawing of the unit in the hot sun led to a giant stain on the ceiling in the
office study-o.
I left the stain for ages as if little painting gnomes would come and magically fix it in the middle of the night. After waiting a reasonable period for the little slackers to show up, the time came to finally say goodbye.
At first, I tried latex primer. But for tough water stains, there really is no substitute (no redoing later) than oil based.
A little flat white ceiling paint (I keep a quart on hand now just in case), and it's as if the A/C problem never existed.
Someone should check on those gnomes. They've been missing work a lot lately, and I suspect it may be a drinking problem.

One of Google's earliest directors, Ram Shriram, has added to his fortune by selling Google stock over the past month—$31 million worth.
He and his wife recently sold 42,000 shares, according to SEC documents. In January, the couple sold the first chunk, 20,000 shares for $730 a pop ($14.6 million), and last week, he and his wife sold 22,000 shares in two transactions at $760 ($16.7 million).
The sale on Friday came as Google's stock was reaching an all-time high of $776.60 (It closed at $775.60). The rise was attributed to news that Google was close to settling the European Union's three-year probe into its business.
Google's previous high was $774.38, reached in October 2012.
Not that Shriram could have timed the sale—as most top executives and insiders typically do, he's set up a 10b5-1 trading plan which dictates his selling according to preplanned conditions. Based on previous sales, it appears that Shriram sets round numbers as price levels at which he automatically sells shares.
Shriram and his wife still own more than 150,000 shares.
Plus, $31 million is pocket change for Ram, who has net worth of $1.6 billion, says Forbes.
Shriram is one of the Valley's golden angels. In his early career he worked for Netscape. Then he founded a company called Junglee, which was bought by Amazon in 1998 for about $185 million. That gave him the capital to invest in Google when it was still operating out of a Menlo Park garage.
Through his venture firm, Sherpalo Ventures, he's also an investor in StumbleUpon, Zazzle, and other startups.

AKA 7 steps to creating a MacGuffin
A rumour of the knights of some powerful king that sleep until danger threatens the kingdom.
The truth is that they were rebels, trying to split the kingdom. Once captured they were put into an enchanted sleep, protected from age and harm, until their aims have been carried out by others in which case they will awaken.
There is a loophole in the spell in that trying to take one of their weapons will also awaken them.

Well it does show that they haven't learned anything and are still repeating the same mistakes as before. Seems that Bioware really is dead, huh?
No sprinting though? Seriously? Aren't they already capping on the speeder speeds too? There's also no legacies either if you're f2p so... Yeah. I'm not even sure many f2p players will even get to 50 due to how large the planets are and how long it takes to get anywhere even with a legacy speeder.

Right at the top, you have to make a purchase of some kind to unlock sprint.

Moving slower does seem to be a bigger issue than loot that's only good if you're seriously working towards endgame. They're going to end up scaring away a ton of new f2p players that will become frustrated over how large the second planet alone is and how ridiculously long it will take to go anywhere at just regular speed. Those with the fastest speeders still consider it an issue.
I can also see pvpers getting frustrated that f2pers are losing them matches because they can't sprint.

At least everyone can do the story part of SWTOR entirely free.
In regards to the sprint deal, you do have to make a purchase, but from the looks of the coin symbol I think you just have to make ANY purchase from the cartel coin shop to unlock sprint. All players, new, returning, and current players will get cartel coins to start off.

Chances are, if you are on this thread, then you'd have bought the original client. This makes you a Preferred Account like other 1st time coin chargers. This means most of the funky restrictions like sprinting and the 2nd action bar have been removed for you. You still have to buy about 30bucks of other stuff, but you save 20 bucks compared to someone starting with just the downloaded client.

Seems to hint that f2p will get Sprint eventually, just not at level 1.
Holding Hide Helmet and Unify colors as hostages is just so cruel though... I expect to see a lot of f2p players looking like something out of the circus with their ugly mismatched gear.

I sure hope that those armor sets on the cartel shop are just average pieces of gear and not something epic. Not a fan (I don't think anyone else is either) of pay-to-win mmos/games.

Yeah some do look nice. The issue is when you find a Flashpoint drop that just doesn't match anything you're wearing due to random color differences. That's why unify is so handy... Well, I'm sure it wont matter at 50 since f2p is capped on the gear they can even wear anyway.
I worry though that some subbers will end up like Vanilla WoW elitists where they will trash the fresh blood and blame them for Warzone losses, Flashpoint wipes, and the such because of the f2p restrictions and lack of "apparent" skill.
Wonder what they'll call f2pers....

It seems like a poorly thought out business model, but if the game is on life support, I suppose the last thing management cares about is a healthy future for the game, and are instead likely just trying for fast cash to try to bring more short term returns on their hefty investment.
You'd think due to that heavy investment, they'd be more committed to the game, but boy were they quick to cut their losses and give up.
I still think Huttball is the best mmo pvp ever made. Maybe future MMOs will be more willing to make pvp maps like that, rather than the incredibly stale node capture/flag run that we've been doing non-stop for the last two decades.
The WZ limit/week for free accounts makes it unlikely free players will have much effect on WZ matches, so the reactionary comments there seem a bit overblown.

It is poorly made, they could have learned a lot on why LOTRO's model still works despite being an outdated game. This feels like a step back for a f2p option and makes it look like they still don't know what MMO players or even f2pers want.

Well it's f2p now and already many are quitting again out of frustration over the p2win pay model and how even stuff like UI like Quickbars must be purchased with cartel coins. This isn't the best of starts for a fresh f2p change.
They really should have taken a page out of LoTRO on what to and not to do.

Laura Bashraheel of the Saudi Gazette interviews Saudi women about the inconvenience and expense of hiring and keeping a driver. A link to her story is here, and the story is pasted below.

Saudi Gazette
JEDDAH — Since women are not allowed to drive in the Kingdom, driving has become a highly lucrative profession for some men. Summertime and Ramadan are peak seasons for independent drivers and companies who charge between SR30-50 per hour or per drop-off. Mohammed Ali, a driver who works for a private car company in Jeddah, said that he earns SR3000 a month, while he would earn SR2000 as a private driver for a family. He feels that it is "better to work for a company as salaries are better."
Fatima Ibraheem, a 28-year-old employee in a private company, said that she does not have a driver and as such has no other option but to use independent drivers. "I paid SR600 for a driver to drop me off and pick me up from work, six days a week until recently. My office is near Palestine St. but my driver told me he couldn't drive me there anymore because he doesn't have clients in that area. He prefers to stay within the Rawdah/Tahliah area where he can make more money," she explained.
Fatima estimates that he makes a minimum of SR400 a day. "He works 18 hours a day and pays only SR400 a month for his rent. He refused to become my personal driver on a monthly salary of SR2,000. That's why it's so hard to find a driver nowadays," she added.
Nadia Sayed, a 31-year-old teacher, is also suffering as she cannot find a suitable driver. She has no brothers and her father does not have the time to provide transportation to and from her workplace. "In the past drivers used to charge SR1,200 a month but now they realized how profitable this profession can be," she said.
Nadia added that though she understands the complexity of the ban on women driving in Saudi Arabia, she has not "heard of any research on why it's impossible or what could be done for women to overcome the whole issue of transportation."
After her driver left, Nadia contacted a car company, but was taken aback when the company told her that they would charge SR3,000 a month just to take her to and from work five days a week. Her transportation allowance is SR400 a month. According to her, finding a driver is much like operating in a black market.
Dana Alawi, a 28-year-old employee, urges the concerned authorities to release an official statement immediately on the status on women driving. "We have been waiting long for public transportation since we don't know when we are going to be allowed to drive," she said. Dana asserts that car companies "are always busy nowadays and it's not safe to go with random drivers. Transportation for women in this country is one of the major dilemmas."
Dana also said that she has been looking for a driver as Ramadan approaches but has yet to find an affordable one. Like Nadia, she feels "it's like a black market for drivers — the higher you pay the more chances you might find one," she said.
Saudi activists have been advocating for their right to drive with the most recent effort being the Women2Drive campaign launched in 2011. On its one-year anniversary, the campaign renewed its call for Saudi women to get behind the wheel and post videos of themselves driving to social media websites. However, the campaign didn't create as much buzz as it did last year and there were only a few women who posted videos.

European Commission
[Check Against Delivery]
László ANDOR
European Commissioner responsible for Employment, Social Affairs and Inclusion
Presentation of 2013 Annual Review of Employment and Social Developments
European Commission Press room's statement
A significant increase in the risk of poverty among the working age population is one of the most tangible social consequences of the economic crisis in Europe.
Even if unemployment is gradually reduced as currently projected, this may not be enough to reverse rising poverty, especially if wage polarisation continues, notably due to a rise in part-time work.
These are amongst the main findings of the European Commission's 2013 Employment and Social Developments in Europe Review, which analyses the difficult and increasingly diverse labour market and social conditions in Europe.
In 2013 we have seen some tentative signs of economic recovery from the double-dip recession: GDP grew in the second and third quarters of the year, unemployment stopped rising and employment stopped falling.
However, this recovery is still very modest and rather fragile. We have not yet begun to make up for the job losses of the past five years. Long-term unemployment is still on the rise in most Member States, as well as precarious jobs.
As you can see from this graph, household incomes in the euro area have lagged behind GDP for most of the past decade. The only exception was in the first phase of the economic crisis when GDP fell sharply but automatic stabilisers and budgetary deficits helped to support household incomes and counteract the downturn.
However, since 2010, household incomes have been falling, which also means weak domestic demand and that is why we can still only speak about a fragile recovery.
On average, out of three Europeans who live at risk of poverty, only one manages to move above the poverty threshold within a year.
In order for an adult to exit poverty, it is usually necessary to find a job. But it is not always enough: our analysis shows that getting a job is a way out of poverty in only half of the cases.
Much depends on the type of job found, the level of pay and the number of hours worked. It also depends on the composition of the household and the working situation of the partner. Unfortunately we cannot say that having a job necessarily equates with a decent standard of living.
This has important implications on what we can expect from the present modest economic recovery: a gradual reduction of unemployment is unlikely to be enough to reverse the increasing trend in poverty levels. Poverty is especially likely to remain a growing problem if polarisation between high and low wages continues, and if more and more people are obliged to work only part-time.
Therefore, policy-makers need to aim not only to create jobs, but also to ensure inclusive labour markets and decent working conditions.
Moreover, governments must continue to provide income support and other social expenditure, including for households whose members do have a job, if people are to exit poverty.
Unfortunately, in many Member States, significant shares of unemployed people are not covered by standard safety nets, such as unemployment benefits or social assistance. (These are shown on the right-hand side of this graph.)
The Review also show that, contrary to many commonly held views, job seekers receiving unemployment benefits are more likely to get a job than those who don't receive benefits.
Why is that? Because well-designed unemployment benefit systems, such as those that reduce the generosity of the benefits over time, require unemployed people receiving benefits to actively look for a job.
Moreover, these unemployed receive advice from job centres and have better access to training. They are also given the necessary time to find jobs that match their skills, and so they are more likely to get out of poverty when they do find the job.
On the contrary, unemployed people relying on other sources, like support from their family members, do not have the same incentives or support to look for a job. Therefore they find it more difficult to get a job.
Another persistent challenge to labour and social inclusion covered by the Review is gender gaps in labour market participation, pay and the risk of poverty.
It is true that gender gaps have decreased since the start of the crisis, mainly because male-dominated sectors have been worse hit.
However, we still have persistent gender inequalities on the labour market. Women still work shorter hours and have lower hourly pay and less career opportunities.
Some Member States have a high share of working women but with shorter hours (those in the top right part of the chart), while in other countries fewer women work relatively longer hours (those on the bottom left). Only Nordic and Baltic countries (top left) succeed in combining high female employment rates with a low gender gap in hours worked.
The key to this success seems to be in an effective policy mix including measures such as widely-available flexible working conditions, incentives to fairly share unpaid work within a couple, as well as employment-friendly, accessible and affordable childcare.

BUCKINGHAM, Fla.- One goal down, two more to go this season for the Lipscomb Lady Bisons cross country team.
Saturday morning in Buckingham, Fla., the Lady Bisons placed six runners in the top 15 on the way to their second consecutive Atlantic Sun Conference Championship.
The pace for the team was set by Dani Walker with a third place finish in a time of 17:26. Tessa Hoefle was close behind in fifth with a time of 17:38.9. Both Walker and Hoefle earned first team all-conference honors.
"Dani had a strong finish," Lipscomb coach Bill Taylor said. "Tessa was actually ahead of her through the middle of the race. They helped each other at various points.
"Early on most of our women were together and in great position. Tessa, Dani, Maddie and Kendra were working together. Minna and Kellie were really close. Maggie tripped at about 1000 meters and spent the rest of the race catching up and passing people. Even when our packs broke up we had a lot of two or three girl groups working together, fighting for positions together."
Taylor was named A-Sun Coach of the year.
Kendra Lobley finished in ninth (17:55.5) followed by Madelin Talbert in 11th (17:59.7), Maggie Lawrence in 12th (18:00.3) and Minna Fields in 14th (18:01.5). All four earned second team all-conference.
Taylor stressed the importance of his runners working together as a pack.
"It was strong," Taylor said. "We did a good job early. We can actually do better.
"But our ability to work together was definitely a big factor today. I think six All A-Sun honors ties the record for most from one team."
Rounding out the finishers for the Lady Bisons were Missy Dowd in 21st (18:26.9), Kellie Foley in 25th (18:50) and Kaitlyn Llewellyn in 46th (19:41.1).
"Obviously we are very happy," Taylor said. "It's a mix of joy and relief really.
"It's very different than last year when we won our first ever. It's hard psychologically to defend your title. I'm so proud of the way the girls handled everything. What an amazing team!"
The championship run proved to be a two-team race as North Florida, which had alternated at times this season with the Lady Bisons at the top of the conference poll, finished second. Both teams finished well ahead of the rest of the field.
The Lady Bisons became the first team outside of the state of Florida since 1986 to win the A-Sun Championship when the race was held in Florida.
Taylor was frustrated by pre-race speculation that course location had played a role in the Lady Bisons winning last season with the championships being held on the Percy Warner Park course.
"North Florida is a very tough team and their performances this season certainly motivated us coming into this championship," Taylor said. "This was especially satisfying because we have been hearing for a year that a reason we won last year was because we raced on our home course.
"It was even noted in some of our competition's press releases Friday before this meet. We have an incredible team and whether we race on our home course or in Florida, we are always going to be tough. I don't want anyone to take anything away from what these girls are accomplishing. It turns out we proved that last year was our talent and the team, not the course."
The Lady Bisons finished first on the course, the home course for Florida Gulf Coast, to open the cross country season. One of the primary motivations for entering that race was get a preview of what to expect in the conference championships.
"Well, running the preview gave us a few ideas about the course," Taylor said. "I think it mostly gave us a feel for the sandy surface and the long straight stretches on this course. I'm not sure the result would be any different, but it definitely didn't hurt to run here already."
The next competition for the Lady Bisons is the NCAA I Southeast Regional Championships in Tallahassee, Fla., at Florida State University Nov. 9.
"Our women can run even better still," Taylor said. "Today wasn't our best possible effort by any means.
"We still have some things to work on to be an elite team. I don't know how far we can get on that in two weeks, but we are going to try. Our ultimate goal for this program is the NCAA Nationals"

News Ltd reported this week that pharmacy and supermarkets shelves have been cleaned out of Australian and New Zealand name-brand powdered infant formulas after several health scares in China.
The Chinese website advertises that Karicare Aptimal Gold Stage 1 tins can be bought at Woolworths in Box Hill, Melbourne, for $22.49 each retail with the site organiser selling to buyers back home at about $37, an extra $15 per tin, or $90 profit per case of six. Express shipping costs another $63.
The site adds that the price will not be negotiated.
The webpage also advertises the availability of different stage infant formulas at the nearby Woolworths-owned Big W.
A translation of the site says it has a "sister" buy from the supermarket "100% genuine" formula.
As News Ltd reported yesterday, traders stand to benefit up to $700 a week, or more than $36,000 tax free from the scheme.
Woolworths said it was up to the discretion of staff to ensure sufficient supplies were in stock and to scrutinise any unusual purchases.
"While there is no specific limit set, our stores are encouraged to use a common sense approach to ensure stock is only sold in retail quantities'" a spokeswoman said.
On Taobao, China's equivalent of Ebay, there is a seller who claims to be the official agent for Nutricia, saying they have sold 28,354 tins of Karicare Gold Stage 1 formula in a month for $34 per tin.
Grey imports are an issue of concern for Chinese authorities who are unable to detect thousands of tins of formula coming through China Post or via express mail services.
"The tins that are coming through, they don't know what is in it. The product could be anything," said Charles Zhang, international sales manager for Victoria-based Milk Powder Solutions which exports exclusively to China.
"In November or December last year, in Canton province Chinese authorities destroyed a lot of tins that do not have any house certificate (from China Inspection and Quarantine) that were sent through grey areas," he said from China yesterday.
Chinese officials have tightened legislation surrounding baby formula since the death of six infants and 300,000 more being made ill by a locally manufactured formula contaminated by melamine in 2008.
The local formula market virtually collapsed after the 2008 scare and any imports must withstand much tighter testing procedures with locals preferring "clean and green" Australian and New Zealand products.
But exporting and registering products in China and organising efficient and reliable supply lines is also notoriously difficult, turning exporters away.
Nutricia, the maker of Karicare and Aptamil brands which have been favoured by illegal exporters, said it has gone from making 5000 tonnes three years ago to 20,000 this year but only a small amount was exported. Production capacity is to increase by a further 50 per cent over the next 12 months.

A month ago I went to 3D Bike Fit. I've known Kevin Bailey for a long time, as well as Alex his partner, back to their days with Bike Nüt in San Francisco. I procrastinated, though, since I'd experimented with fit a long time and I'd been to several professional fitters and didn't think the time investment would be worth it. My schedule most days is super-busy and if I do one thing something else doesn't get done.
The problem I have had with most bike fits is they seem strongly biased. I go in, my present fit is assessed, a few tweaks are made, and out I go. This seems strongly biased. Ideally the final fit shouldn't depend on the initial fit. If there's an optimal fit, why should it matter what I've been riding? It's like if I ask you to solve the equation 3x + 6 = 21. There's only one answer with conventional numbers and it's 5 (corrected!). Whether I start with an initial guess of 2 or an initial guess of 42 is irrelevant: I've got to end up at 3.
Unfortunately bike fitting isn't that simple. There's a range of solutions for a given physiology. So from that perspective, it makes sense to deviate as little as possible from an initial rider fit. Additionally, there's different philosophies on how to trade off different elements of fit. If I'm riding Amsterdam bike paths to and from the market, I'm certainly not going to want the same fit as a track sprinter. Additionally a track sprinter wouldn't want the same fit as a road racer, a road racer the same fit as someone doing double centuries, a double century rider the same fit as someone riding 1200 km brevets. There's trade-offs between aerodynamics, comfort, power, and acceleration.
But the biggest challenge in bike fit is that bikes are not designed for fit optimization. For example, if I pivot my body forward about the bottom braket, rotating everything forward, modeling has shown this has little effect on pedaling efficiency. Yet to do this on a bike requires making enormous changes: saddle up, saddle forward, handlebars lower, handlebars rotated forward, stem longer. If I were to optimize any of these components individually, I might well assume that changing it would result in an inferior fit, but only when changing them in coordination would I be able to investigate the effect of rotating the body about the bottom bracket. It's possible, for example, that doing so would result in a superior distribution of weight between the front and rear wheel, or perhaps a more balanced transition going from seated to standing. This would be easy to investigate with a specially designed fit bike, but it would be time prohibitive to investigate on a conventional bike,
Kevin @ 3D Bike Fit begins with a physiological check. In my case this included flexibility, how I stand, how I sit. My flexibility is relatively good but I have points of weakness. And he observed something I don't recall being observed before: that my left arch was collapsing. This results in a functional leg length difference, he pointed out. When the arch collapses that lowers the leg, and that lowering of the leg requires a compensating pivot in the hip. One approach to this might be a shim in the cleat, but a better approach is to support the arch in the left shoe. My Sidis had seen enough miles, and he strongly recommended the Specialized S-Works shoes with a dual-boa adjustment. These were remarkably comfortable at first, although perhaps slightly confining in the toes. The shoes have a built-in varus adjustment, he said, which I needed on my left side but not my right. He later neutralized the right varus adjustment with a shim Specialized makes for the purpose. He also gave me heat-moldable footbeds which provided a really firm feeling in the shoes. It was a feeling of connectedness I hadn't felt since I had Rocket 7's over ten years ago.
But it's hard to evaluate shoes in the hurried environment of a bike fit. The shoes are indeed comfortable, except for two features. One is the toe area. As I noted, my toes were somewhat confined, and the shim in the right shoe made them even more so. Extended riding resulted in the feeling the knuckles in my right foot abrading against the mesh on the top of the shoe, in particular at the location of a seam near the toes. On the left side, I had a very strange experience of some padding on the low-cut ankle rubbing against a nerve. I'm not sure why this didn't happen on the right side, which was fine. This was excruciating. The first ride I did I was convinced I'd ripped my angle to a bloody pulp. But after the ride, there was no visible trauma. I tried shimming various objects there to diffuse the pressure point. A coffee cozy picked up from the trash at a cafe helped a lot. Best of all was a credit-card-like object. That worked great and seemed fairly stable if placed correctly. This "solution" got me through Devil Mountain Double. For the right shoe, I eventually removed the varus adjustment neutralization shim. This gave me back just enough room in my toes that I was comfortable. This is acceptable, but I really need to figure out how to deal with that left ankle problem. I tried padding the shoe out with moleskin near the painful contact point. This didn't work as well as I'd hoped. At some point it risks replacing one problem with another. I also contemplated cutting away the portion of the shoe causing the issue. But the heel is already quite low there and I worry it might cause other problems.
On the pedal side Kevin likes the stable platform of Shimano SPD-SL pedals and cleats. These are indeed stable: once my shoe is clipped in it feels solid, and I don't find myself fighting against the lack of float. Another asset to these shoes is the cleats can be set up with a narrow stance, which he determined I needed. The video evidence was there: each time he made a change my pedal stroke improved. But what I don't like about the pedals is the difficulty clipping in. Usually a few seconds lost stumbling with a single-sided pedal is no big deal. However occasionally it is. For example, when clipping in at the start of a hillclimb every second lost is lost: you can only climb a hill so fast and unless drafting has a large influence, for example on a relatively flat section of road, then if it takes longer to get going it's going to take longer to get finishing. Even at Devil Mountain Double the clip-in problem may have been an issue if a delay clipping in caused me to subsequently just miss a traffic light. So I don't like the slow clip-in and that alone is reason to dislike these pedals, even if I like many other aspects. They are heavy but the cleat is light and the combination isn't that bad, although I've not carefully measured it since I've been more focused on the functional aspect.
The coolest thing, however, was the position tracking. Kevin attached markers to key pivot points on both sides of my body. The Retul system, as I understand it, uses a rastering laser which converts position into time, so based on when it sees reflections from the markers it determines the position of each marker. This allows him to track my body position, not only for video recording, but also for the automated real-time extraction of key parameters like joint angle. The traditional approach for joint angles is either goniometers, which can only be done statically, or using video analysis software like Dartfish, which is subject to perspective distortion. But Kevin improved on the Retul standard by building a rotating platform to allow for the sequential measurement of the left and right sides. This assumes you pedal the same during the two orientations, ideal would be simultaneous measurements of the multiple sides, but this is probably a good assumption and the solution is brilliantly done.
The fit took hours... close to four, I recall, and Kevin constantly complained about how it was a rush job. Yet this blew away prior fits I've had.
But there a few issues. One was saddle height: he set saddle height using a 35 degree bend angle in the knee as a target. I've read a bunch of papers and book references on the subject, this put my saddle lower than, or at the low range of, all of them. This is not itself an issue, it doesn't mean the fit was bad. But since I felt I had more top-end power with the seat higher, I felt I had license to act on that, and I raised it 1 cm. This wasn't as high as I had it prior, but seat height doesn't exist in isolation, and with the other changes he made my original seat height would have been too high.
The other issue was a source of some tension as I expressed reluctance to switch to shallow drop bars. A reason for this was I didn't like the specific bars he had: I don't like the raised center section of 31.8 mm bars (I use 26.0 mm) and I didn't like the heavier weight of what he had available (I use a humble Ritchey Pro bar and a Performance Forte stem, a combination which combined with some relatively cheap after-market Ti bolts yields a remarkably light package). But in the end I didn't see the need. The motivation for compact bars is to keep the back angle the same when transitioning the arms from the hoods to the drops. But why would I want that? The whole point of being on the drops is to get lower, for example for descending or due to high-intensity riding which can't be sustained for more than, for example, 10 minutes. While for the hoods I want to be able to open up a bit, relax a little, either for climbing when wind resistance is less important, or because I'm in a pack and wind resistance is substantially reduced and I want to have the option of straightening my arms and improving my view. I am a big fan of riding with bent arms: it absorbs shock and promotes relaxation, providing room to move by straightening them without impeding the ability to get aero when necessary. But that doesn't mean I want my drops raised up to such a height that they no longer expand my position options.
Anyway, he did the best he could, he said, with my present bars, rotating them forward (I'd had a prominent upslope on the drops to provide a more comfortable position on the ramps), raising the hoods, and raising the bars as high as my stem and steerer tube would allow. This really was an improvement, and I eventually converted my Ritchey Breakaway, my second-tier road bike, to a similar position. I find I can still get as low as my physiology allows without my knees pounding against my chest, an impact which obviously wastes energy, but I am more comfortable in the drops on extended descents, where they provide better control than descending on the hoods.
Indeed, on Devil Mountain Double, not counting some minor foot issues, I was remarkably comfortable for the 13+ hours I was moving. And this is after I raised my saddle, as I noted.
One thing I didn't see was an explicit power increase. My times up Camino Alto (a 4.5 - 5 minute climb) aren't noticeably faster and when I started doing sprints with a power meter, my sprint power was 100 watts lower than it had been last August. I've since gotten my sprint power back close to where it was then (although my best sprints were on my Ritchey Breakaway, which still has Speedplay pedals, which I rode with my Bont shoes, although other aspects of the fit I transferred to that bike). But there was no magic power boost, in the short term, fromt he position change. But a lot goes into power and staying fresher through a long ride is more important than peak power over intervals when fresh.
So it was a very positive experience and I strongly recommend 3D Bike Fit to riders who are serious about optimizing their positions.

Anyone wondering where on earth this blog has been for the past year would be entitled to know that I have, indeed, been working on projects near and dear to my heart, specifically that of carrying then babying the newest addition to the family (seen stage right), as well as trying to maintain my sanity while raising a toddler while tending to a newborn.
Time, though, as any good genealogist knows, marches on inexorably, and the strains of a new baby and a tired toddler are starting to wear away, leaving me more energy to fight the good genea-blog fight and attempt to resurrect the wilting powers of my own literary merit.
As I have had ample time to consider the time-worthiness of this blog, there will be some changes coming, as far as focus and content; changes which, I hope, will improve my posts dramatically, while realigning my blog with my own set of developing interests. Most markedly, the blog will no longer focus solely on internet-tools and research-techniques, though I do plan to cover these topics as they pertain to research I do personally on the web. When I discover a great site, a useful shareware app, or a new and particularly well-aligned search engine, I plan to share it with my readers. But as far as general coverage of the internet through the proverbial genealogy lens--no more. I find that other bloggers cover the most germane developments faster, better and more efficiently than I tend to (I'm looking at you, Randy Seaver!), so I see no sense in trying to re-post the wheel, as it were.
Instead, this blog will take on a new angle, reflecting my own research interests in the Great and Golden State of California. Particular emphasis will be given to research in the Bay Area (since that is where I live, and where I come in contact with the most primary sources). Look for reports on access and usage of records in nearby repositories, as well as items of historical interest in various communities throughout the state. Trends and events affecting California residents will be discussed, often in-depth, and every effort will be made to present cohesive, annotated discussions which would be of use to anyone researching in this state.
I also recently began an in-depth research project on a gaggle of ancestors who made their way from New York to California in the first half of the 19th century, meandering lazily and across the decades from upstate New York, to Illinois, to Minnesota, through the Dakota Territory and various mining towns, to the citrus belt of California, until coming to a final halt in the San Francisco Bay Area. Since the family is interesting and had their hands in a myriad of different historical cookie jars, I've decided to expand upon different aspects of this family research in this blog. The series should cover, geographically, the Midwest and Western states, with an emphasis on migratory trends and early settlements along the way.
In the end, I want to realign this blog as a showcase of real research being done by one individual in a specific time and place. I want to discuss the largesse and limitations of research on the internet, and I want to track the actual research process as it unfolds... whenever that process holds interesting nuggets of research technique or historical significance of interest to readers. I hope you'll find the newer incarnation of RDGR to be a useful one, and I welcome any comments on the blog!

About the "if the comic will have an infinite number of frames, it will certainly loop" theory, I have a very simple counterexample. Let's take two different Frames and call them A and B; at one point of Time, Randall could decide to do this: for each n from 1 to ∞, show n consecutive A frames, then n B frames (i.e. ABAABBAAABBBAAAABBBB...). This way the comic will continue indefinitely without ever looping, using only 2 (TWO) Frames. If you want me to demonstrate it isn't a loop, let me know (I haven't done it because I don't want to think about it, anyway it should be obvious that it won't loop).
There is a simpler counter example to my original claim - 2 Frames and the Comic consists of Frame 1 followed by an infinite number of Frame 2. This is not a loop.
However. I have been on a long walk and had a long think and have sent the excavators in to Westminster Abbey to dig up the infinite but no loop infidels. They will be thrown in a ditch and covered in quick lime to encourage the others. And this is why - we have been looking only at the mathematics of permutations but the Comic is driven by a, whatsit, narrative not science and one step demands the next. If the same frame shows up, the same next frame must thereafter appear. With a finite number of possible frames, the Comic will loop.
The same frame can be used more than once in a narration without the need of a loop. Counterexample in the attached image (the 1st and 5th panels are copy-pasted). A non-comic (so we're no more talking about frames) counterexample is Groundhog Day (and stories using the same concept): I don't remember the film and I don't know if the exact same frame is showed, but inside the world of the story every day starts exactly the same way so the same frame could be used.
EDIT: forgot the image

A big brown-and-white RV is parking on street corners around New York City and offering paternity tests to men who are unsure whether their kids are really their own. The "Who's Your Daddy" truck charges $275 to $575 for an official DNA test and Jared Rosenthal, who owns and drives the van for Health Street, isn't hurting for customers.
"I had one woman get six kids DNA tested once," Rosenthal told the New York Post. "I get a lot of military requests [to test kids]. I think when they're away, they want the assurance." Rosenthal also sees many men who are seeking visitation rights or who are tangled up in a divorce.
One customer "was so certain his 5-year-old boy was really his that he had the child's face tattooed on his chest," the Post reports. But when this man faced divorce and was forced into a DNA test he learned that he really wasn't the father. Ouch!
In a case like this, Rosenthal often steps in as a counselor. "For two or three weeks after, he'd call me asking, 'What should I do? I don't want to tell anyone. I can't tell my family,' " Rosenthal told the Post.
But not all stories end badly and Rosenthal has helped people connect with their long lost children. And of course in most cases, the man and child are related but those few exceptions make for "a lot of drama…It's heartbreak hotel. It's really, really tough sometimes," Rosenthal told the Post.
