Voter tips from the Richland County
The Richland County Elections and Voter Registration office reminds all county voters of identification required to vote at the polls Tuesday. One of three types of valid ID is required:
1. SC drivers license
2. Voter registration card
3. SC ID card issued by DMV
Polls open 7 a.m. until 7 p.m.
Voters, prepare to wait in a line at your polling place. Bring a book, tablet, reader, etc. Also please bring your patience.
Recommended voting times when the line may not be as long: 10 a.m. Noon and 2 p.m. 4 p.m.
All voters in line at 7 p.m. will be able to vote.
Curbside voting available for disabled
Protection & Advocacy for People with Disabilities reminds voters that people with disabilities have the right to vote from their cars.
Curbside voting also is available to people with disabilities who are unable to stand in line.
A curbside voting sign should be visible at each polling place, and poll managers should monitor the area at least every 15 minutes, according to an agency news release issued this week.
If a person with a disability has a service dog, he or she has the right to have the dog accompany them while voting.
Protection & Advocacy conducts a polling place accessibility survey each election year to evaluate whether polling places have the basic features needed by voters with disabilities. Topics include parking, entrances and whether assistance is available. Log on at PANDASC.org.
More questions and answers from the S.C. Election Commission
Q. Is the new Photo ID law in effect?
A. No, the new photo ID rules are NOT in effect for any elections in 2012, including the November 6th General Election. The rules for providing ID in the 2012 General Election are addressed in the next question. To learn more about the new rules that begin on January 1, 2013, visit www.scvotes.org.
Q. Ive lost my voter registration card. Can I still vote?
A. Yes. Voters may also vote with their drivers license or a DMV issued ID card. Voters may also get a replacement card from their county voter registration office.
Q. How does straight party voting work?
A. Whether to vote Straight Party is the first choice a voter must make on a General Election ballot. Voting straight party is optional. Each political party that has nominated a candidate appearing on the voters ballot is represented in the straight party selection area. If a party is selected under straight party, every candidate of that party is automatically selected. The voter then has the option of changing their vote for any particular office (also known as crossover voting) simply by touching the candidate of choice for that office. Voters should also be aware that when voting straight party no selection is made for nonpartisan offices and questions. These contests must be voted individually. As always, voters should carefully review their choices on the review screen before casting their ballot.
Q. Ive moved since the last election and havent updated my voter registration card. Can I still vote?
A. If the voter moved to
1. another residence within his precinct, he can vote at his polling place but must first fill out a change of address form.
2. a different precinct within his county, he is eligible vote a failsafe ballot.
3. another residence in another county within 30 days of the primary, he is eligible to vote a failsafe ballot.
4. another residence in another county prior to 30 days before the primary, he is not eligible to vote.
Two Options for Voting Failsafe:
1. The voter may vote at the polling place in his previous precinct using a failsafe ballot.
2. The voter may go to the voter registration office in the county in which he currently resides, change his address, and vote there.
Q. I saw a candidate/member of candidates campaign at my polling place talking to voters. Can he do that?
A. Yes, but there are restrictions:
• Inside the polling place: No campaigning is allowed. Candidates may be inside the polling place and talk to voters as long as they are not campaigning, intimidating voters, or interfering with the election process.
• Within 200 feet of an entrance to a polling place: Candidates and campaign staff may campaign as long as they are not intimidating voters or interfering with the election process. However, no campaign literature, signs, or posters are allowed. Candidates are allowed to wear a badge no larger than 4.25-by-4.25 inch featuring only the candidates name and office sought. Candidates must remove their badge upon entering a polling place.
• Outside 200 feet of an entrance to a polling place: does not fall under the jurisdiction of the poll clerk.
Q. A candidate is definitely campaigning while in the polling place, or there is campaign literature within 200 feet of the entrance. What can I do?
A. Inform the poll clerk immediately. If the issue is not resolved, contact the county election commission and inform them of the situation. The election commission will address the complaint.
Q. Can candidates or their representatives take people to the polls to vote?
A. Yes.
Q. When and where will results be reported?
A. Unofficial results will be reported by the SEC on election night at www.scVOTES.org. Results are reported in real time as we receive them from each county election commission. Results may also be reported locally by county election commissions.
Q. When is a recount necessary?
A. When the difference between any candidate declared nominated and any other candidate not declared nominated is 1% or less of the total votes cast for all candidates for that office, a recount is mandatory.
Q. Do employers have to give you time off to vote?
A. No. There is no state or federal law mandating that employers must give time off to employees to cast their vote. Voters who know they will not be able to visit the polls on Election Day should apply to vote absentee before the day of the election.
Q. Can alcoholic beverages be sold on Election Day?
A. Yes, but not in liquor stores. State law prohibits retail liquor sales on the day of the General Election. For more information contact the S.C. Department of Revenue, (803) 898-5864.
Q. Can lottery tickets be sold on Election Day?
A. Yes. For more information, contact the S.C. Education Lottery at (803) 737-2002.
Q. Are there any laws about candidates posting their signs along the roadway?
A. Yes, there are several state laws addressing political signs on roadways, as well as county and municipal ordinances. See S.C. Code of Laws Sections 57-25-10, 57-25-140, and 7-25-210. Ultimately, it is the responsibility of the entity that maintains the road (state, county, or municipality) to enforce applicable sign laws.
Q. When I left the polls, I was asked to participate in an exit poll. Is this legal?
A. Exit polls are legal and participation is voluntary. They are NOT conducted by the State Election Commission or the county election commissions. Generally, polls may not be conducted inside the polling place, and we ask that voters not be approached before they have voted. If a voter feels threatened or intimidated by a pollster, it should be reported immediately to the precincts poll clerk.
Q. Where can I file a complaint about the election?
A. Any complaints regarding the election can be addressed to your county election commission. The Richland County Election Commission phone is (803) 576-2240. The offices are at 2020 Hampton St., Columbia. The Lexington County Election Commissions phone

Analysts believe that this mock-up could be a representation of the upcoming iPhone, which looks a little like the new iPad 2. Or, could it look like the iPhone 4 with metal backing? 4 / 10 Signs Point to an A5 Chip What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The new iPad is coming stocked with a super fast A5 chip, and signs hidden in the latest iOS 4.3 release point to an A5 chip coming in the next iPhone as well. 6 / 10 It Will Come With an Upgraded Camera What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Sony CEO Howard Stringer let the news slip that his company will be supplying the image sensors for the iPhone 5, suggesting a more powerful and upgraded (possibly 8MP) camera will be stocked inside. 6 / 10 There Could Also Be a Lower Priced Phone What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 New sources say that the iPhone 5 could launch in late August alongside an unsubsidized 3GS priced at $350.

Help us customize your newsletter by selecting your interests (optional): Tech Vegetarian DIY Love & Sex bbrat82 3 years I work at an authorized at&t retailer and we sell the Iphone. I have learned that don't believe everything you hear or read about Apple and there launch dates or details of products to be launching. How many years did we keep hearing that the Iphone was moving to another carrier? Or how about earlier this year how there wasn't going to be an Iphone 5 and now there is and they keep changing the launch month? As far as for the early upgrade, nikki815, you usually have to have the phone for a minimum of a year before the early upgrade is available to you. Also, for those wanting to get some credit for their practically new Iphone 4 to use toward the purchase of an Iphone 5 (whenever it does come out), check out the major retailers that sell the Iphone for at&t or verizon. And I dont mean the corporate stores. I'm talking about places like Radio Shack or Best Buy. They offer trade in programs where they offer you credit from your old phone to use towards the purchase of a new one. My friend traded in her 3gs to an Iphone4 at Radio Shack and ended up shelling out only $5 (not including the purchase of accessories of course) for the IPhone 4. Her 3gs was in pretty much mint condition too so im sure that helped. 3 years Ur best bet is to call AT&T urself and just ask:) nikki815 3 years I need advice from iphone/att customers... I am going to be making the switch from sprint/BB soon, but I am unclear about the early upgrade idea. I've heard that just about anything short of finishing the full 2 yr contract makes you eligible for early upgrade pricing, is that correct? I would be fine with paying the extra $200 premium, but I just want to make sure that is the policy before getting stuck with an iphone 4 for the next 2 years...esp since there are so many rumors about the iphone 6 coming out next year. Not to jump ahead too far, but there is the thought that with next year being the 5th year of the iphone a complete redesign is in the works and that's why they aren't making huge changes for the iphone 5. Thanks SweetAnomaly 3 years Just a thought... I think that the post where it says it *might* be released in June should be removed since now it's more likely that it will be released in the Fall which basically contradicts the June date. Just saying!! Happy Friday :D 3 years It only seems that way to the clueless. thehoneybunnie 3 years Oh, and I forgot to add, thanks for the heads up :-D thehoneybunnie 3 years "It seems like it was just last month" is an expression, like "it seems like it was just yesterday..." EricaJane 3 years it wasn't last month, it was this summer. iphones come out every summer. thehoneybunnie 3 years It seems like it was just last month that Apple came out with the iPhone 4. It would be nice if existing owners could turn in their practically new old phones for a credit towards their new phone. While I like to keep up with technology, I pretty much gave up with buying the latest and greatest. In fact, I wrote an article of why/how I gave up my cell at http://www.honeybunnie.weebly.com Kristy-Ellington 3 years Nothing is ever official before launch with Apple!

Job seekers usually dedicate a lot of time to writing their resume, cover letter and practicing answers to interview questions. This, of course, is time well spent. However, it is important to treat the entire interview process professionally. Just because you did not get a particular job does not necessarily mean there will not be a position for you at the company in the future. Don't blow it.
Recently, I spoke with a candidate who I had interviewed and told him he did not get the job. He immediately told me I was making a mistake. He insisted that he was perfect for the job. I thanked him again for his time and ended the conversation. Less than an hour later I received an email that began, "mrs. stamatelos, I ask that you 'renig' your decision." Yes, he typed in all lower case and yes, he wrote "renig." His superior language skills reinforced my decision. He continued, in his message, to basically tell me that the decision not to hire him was wrong.
Oh, if he had only stopped at that. Next, he sent emails, demonstrating more of his stellar use of English, to the Manager and Vice President telling them that he was the person the company should hire for the job. Trust me; this is NOT the way to leave a good impression.
Not getting a job you really wanted is disheartening. Handling rejection the wrong way is a big mistake. So, what should you do? First, thank the person for their time. It is acceptable to say that you are still interested in working for the company and should something open up that is a match for your skill set you would like to be considered. You can follow up with an email stating the same. Next, move on. Continue your job search, focus on new opportunities.
Here is some inside HR information. There are occasions when the candidate that was offered the job does not work out. Maybe you were a close second candidate. If you ended the interview process on good terms you will likely get a call asking if you are still interested. Similarly, other jobs may open in the future. If you left a good impression you might be considered.
My candidate, who was not chosen, ended his email to me, "as a great philosophery once said…"
Please, don't be this guy.

About Cole Swindell
Cole Swindell is making his appearance in the realm of country music, and he is taking his fans by storm. Fraternity brother of Luke Bryan at Georgia Southern University, Cole Swindell followed in his footsteps and left his Georgia hometown to pursue music in Nashville. Having only been in the country music scene for a short time, it didn't take Swindell long to have a hit song and huge fan base under his belt.
Cole Swindell made a name for himself in country music with his songwriting. Swindell's first involvement was with Luke Bryan, acquainted through the same Sigma Chi fraternity at Georgia Southern University. The two played shows together occasionally, and after relocating to Nashville, Cole Swindell got more involved with songwriting. Some of his early credits go to six of the songs on Luke Bryan's album, Spring Break: Here to Party. Swindell also wrote material for Scotty McCreery, Chris Young, and Florida Georgia Line. Swindell caught the eye of Warner Nashville with his independent release of "Chillin' It" in 2013, and he was signed by the end of the year, resulting with his single at No 1 on the Billboard Country charts. With a new opportunity in front of him, Cole Swindell released his debut, self-titled album in February 2014, which landed a record No 3 spot on the Billboard 200 for a debut album by a new country male artist, and No 2 on the Top Country Albums chart.

Nissan Hi-Cross concept for Geneva previews new SUV for Europe
Nissan will reveal the Hi-Cross crossover concept at the Geneva motor show. The concept is expected to preview a replacement for the X-Trail SUV.
Nissan wouldn't officially comment on the significance of the Hi-Cross, other than to say that the concept explores ideas to expand its range.
A source close to Nissan said the Hi-Cross previews a production car that will be larger than the carmaker's Qashqai and Juke models. Nissan does not sell the X-Trail or Qashqai in the U.S. market. The X-Trail is similar in size to the Nissan Xterra, and the Qashqai is similar to the Nissan Rogue.
The Hi-Cross will be shown in Geneva alongside the Invitation subcompact concept, which previews a replacement for the Nissan Note.
"With the Invitation you'll be able look through the concept to the production car and the Hi-Cross is going to be similar to that," the source said.
The production version of the Hi-Cross is expected to launch in 2013.

Martha Sugalski joins WESH 2 News live from her hospital bed
Updated On: Jun 21 2013 06:26:45 AM EDT
WESH 2 anchor Martha Sugalski made her first appearance on WESH 2 News at 5 p.m. since she checked into the hospital Monday.
Sugalski is pregnant with triplets -- two boys and one girl.
She joined Jim Payne and Meredith McDonough live on Thursday.
"Excited, nervous, scared. Wondering what the next day is going to bring. I'm just looking forward to meeting them, soon, I hope. Not too soon, but soon," she said.
Sugalski checked into the hospital during her 33rd week of pregnancy.
"It's just one day at a time," she said.
Sugalski has been actively tweeting updates on her and the babies' condition, but that comes with limits.
"I don't know if they'll let me do it from the delivery room. I'll probably get down there and have my phone taken away," she said.
Sugalski's pregnancy has gotten a great response from viewers, and she thanked them for their support.
"I really appreciated all the prayers and all the tweets from viewers. Everyone has just been so sweet and so nice and it's helping me stay positive," she said.

He was first called to a traffic stop at 3:15am after a police officer suspected the presence of drugs in a vehicle driven by Kenneth Julian, 56. With Jake's sniffing skills, police were able to find methamphetamine, marijuana, Xanax, and Hydrocodone.
Jake was then called from the scene to respond to a report that three men were in the area of 44th and J Street in Lincoln wearing gloves in the heat. When Sgt. Clark's cruiser arrived, three men were seen running through yards between houses. Jake located the men hiding. They are identified as Samuel Barnes, 20, Joshua Bucsis, 19, and Mickey McConkey, 19. Police believe they were in the area checking for vehicles left unlocked.
Police say the men stole two cameras from one vehicle. All three were cited for theft, trespassing, vandalism, and MIP. Police were only able to provide mugshots of Julian & McConkey.

FOUR OAKS — At about 10 p.m. the day Wade Stewart died, Rudy Baker received a call from a veteran in California.
Beginning with a few local phone calls that morning, word had spread across the country that a fellow Vietnam vet had died. Stewart had saved the callers life in Vietnam, and he felt compelled to share that with Baker, one of Stewarts closest friends and a retired Army colonel.
This made sense to Baker, for Stewart made a habit of being of service to others since returning from Vietnam. Stewart was known for being ready to help whether as a Boy Scout leader or county commissioner, when helping one of his four sons pursue a dream or making sure a veterans family could afford a proper funeral for a loved one.
He was very passionate about helping people, and he loved being a county commissioner because it gave him an opportunity to help people in so many ways, Johnston County Manager Rick Hester said.
At 68, Steward died last month from complications from back surgery hed had nine days earlier. He had been a Johnston County commissioner since 1998 and was still active at his post. Most days he could be found at 301 Service Center and Auto Sales, Inc. in Four Oaks, also known as Chads Shop.
Stewart had helped his oldest son, Chad, invest in the business when Chad Stewart got out of college. He would smoke cigarettes, drink coffee and read the newspaper as constituents, sheriffs and family alike sought his counsel.
He was a roll up his sleeves, and lets get to work kind of guy, Chad Stewart said. There wasnt a problem he wouldnt solve.
In his 14 years as an elected official, Wade Stewart oversaw significant improvements to the countys Emergency Medical Services, as well as major expansions of its schools and business industry.
But what was closest to his heart, friends and family say, was the work he did for veterans.
Stewart established the Johnston County veterans services advisory board, as well as the Vietnam Veterans Chapter 990.
There was no one in this county that pushed harder to get that going than Wade Stewart did, Baker said. I lost a brother when he died, and all of us feel that way, all the veterans in this county.
Before he became a politician, Stewart was co-owner and president of Keener Lumber Co. in Smithfield. He was a fourth-generation sawmiller, his son Greg Stewart the fifth, before the family sold the company a few years ago.
And he had always been heavily involved in his community, whether through First Baptist Church in Four Oaks or coaching his sons little league teams.
Hed always been interested in politics and with a lot of encouragement from community, friends, family, he chose to run in 1998, said Jenny Stewart, his wife of 45 years.
Primarily he was a problem solver, said Four Oaks Mayor Linwood Parker. The two were movie buddies they shared a love of Westerns.
It did not take long for him to make veterans affairs a priority. With him, it was personal.
During the Vietnam War, Stewart left his studies at Campbell University to enlist in the Army. He spent the first year he was married deployed to Vietnam. Upon his return he attended officer candidate school, where he graduated a lieutenant, and within two years had risen to the rank of captain.
His wife says he would have stayed in the military had the circumstances been different. But when the time came to decide, Jenny Stewart was pregnant with their first child, and another four-year stint was sure to mean another deployment to Vietnam. On top of that, his family needed his help with the lumber business, so he finished his commitment and returned to Campbell, where he earned a bachelors degree in English.
As an elected official, he made a point of visiting veterans, young and old, making trips to Womack Army Medical Center at Fort Bragg.
He would not leave that ward until he spoke to every individual in there, Baker recalled. He had a burning desire to help veterans.

News Article
How oddly appropriate with Roman Polanski being back in the news that Monolith and WB Games would give us a sneak peek at their own little girl, and we don't even have to bring any Quaaludes!That little girl, of course, is none other than Alma Wade, queen bitch of F.E.A.R. and its upcoming sequel F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin.
The creators, eager to get our appetites whetted for the February 10th release of the aforementioned sequel, have released a single-player demo for all three of F.E.A.R.'s platforms: Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and Games for Windows. Picking up right where the first game left off, you have to make your way through a devastated school after Alma's psychic explosion has leveled most of the city. Of course, it wouldn't be much fun if there weren't scads of Replica soldiers and ethereal wraiths to battle!
Console users can download the demo from their respective online services (Xbox Live/PSN), whereas PC users can get the demo, as well as more info on the game, from F.E.A.R. 2's official website.

The Daily Star
---- — Just a little over a year ago, courtesy of Hurricane Irene and Tropical Storm Lee, a corn crib in Middleburgh went on a wild mile-and-a-half ride along the Schoharie Creek, drifting away from Betty Koska's farm.
Slightly beaten up during the journey, the 1820s era corn crib was nearly ready to meet its demise by a torch, when David Petri of Hartwick, a friend of Koska, helping her clean up and rebuild on her property, intervened.
Koska is the owner of the former Peter Swart farm in Middleburgh. Swart was the brother of Lawrence Swart, builder of the present Swart-Wilcox House in Oneonta's Sixth Ward. Petri contacted Helen Rees, historian at the Swart-Wilcox House, and a process soon began to disassemble the old corn crib and bring it to Otsego County, to be repaired from the flood damage and then be rebuilt in Oneonta.
At one time, old Oneonta photos and maps showed that the Swart-Wilcox House had a corn crib of similar construction on the grounds. The Swart-Wilcox House is the earliest house still standing in Oneonta and was a working farm, the last in the city limits, until the 1960s, according to Rees.
A year later, after a vigorous fund raising effort and the restoration services of Jon Edgington of Mount Vision, the corn crib has been completed on the Swart-Wilcox grounds and a celebration called Corn Fest is set for this Sunday, from 1 to 3 p.m.
The corn crib was re-assembled between Aug. 28 and Sept. 7, or less than two weeks, by Edgington and a few helpers.
As Rees puts it, "corny good times" will be featured at Sunday's Corn Fest. Corn food, corn games, crafts and a woodworking demonstration by Jon Edgington will be part of the afternoon's festivities. Refreshments and admission are free, and there will be tours of the house and corn crib, although donations to the Swart-Wilcox House will be welcomed.
A ribbon-cutting ceremony will be featured at 2 p.m., with brief addresses by Oneonta Mayor Dick Miller and Mark Simonson, Oneonta city historian, and a contingent of people who made this corn crib possible at the Swart-Wilcox House.
"It has been the people of Oneonta who have come through with their generous support to make this possible," Rees said. "It will be a wonderful addition to our school program and in the interpretation of the Swart-Wilcox homestead."

How 2012 Echoed 1932
The Romney campaign was shocked it lost because it chose to believe its own spokespeople, not the facts.
Anthony Rudel is the author of Hello, Everybody! The Dawn of American Radio , and is the visiting lecturer of communications studies at Manhattanville College.
A few days before the election, Chuck Todd on MSNBC asked: "If Mitt Romney wins, what would he have done that no Republican since 1928 had done?" The answer: win the presidency without a Nixon or a Bush on the ticket. That's right; the last Republican administration without a representative of one of those two legacy Republican families was elected 84 years ago when Herbert Hoover won the White House. There is, however, another important similarity between Hoover and Romney that went unnoticed: Both men were known for their nonpolitical achievements; they were businessmen with strong organizational skills. But what may be even more interesting are the incredible similarities between the elections of 1932 and 2012, and media's role in those campaigns.
[See photos as President Obama Wins Re-Election.]
The main issue in 1932 was undoubtedly the economy, as unemployment was over 20 percent as Election Day neared. It had been a bitter campaign with the two sides exchanging attacks via radioed speeches from the candidates and their surrogates. Hoover repeatedly told the beleaguered American workers that what "people need is the restoration of their normal jobs," adding that the Democratic Party would "ignore the piling up of our national debt," which would worsen the situation. They called Franklin Roosevelt's economic plans "the same philosophy of government which has poisoned all of Europe."
As a counter, Democrats pointed to the "political nearsightedness of the Republican Party," and its inability to "turn in the right direction" to help Americans escape the problems plaguing the nation. They called Hoover "the tool of the rich," "the dupe of the international bankers," and "the foe of progressive principles."
Doesn't it all sound incredibly familiar?
And while economics and personal attacks were the main thrusts of both campaigns, an all consuming social issue further divided right from left. Prohibition, which pitted drys against wets, provided a clear distinction for those Americans for whom the economy was not the deciding factor.
[Take the U.S. News Poll: Will Barack Obama Be Able to Accomplish Anything in His Second Term?]
As Election Day approached, Republicans warned the nation that they were on the watch for voter fraud and had prepared legal challenges to prevent illegal voting. Meanwhile an army of 115,000 workers assembled years earlier by the Roosevelt campaign were prepared to spend Election Day turning out the vote, state by state, precinct by precinct. It was the first iteration of the now oft-talked about ground game in all its glory.
As to polling, the Literary Digest, which had done an extensive analysis of polling statistics—a far less mathematical version of Nate Silver's Five Thirty-Eight blog—predicted that FDR would win in a landslide. Then on November 5, just days before the election, Hearst publications—the somewhat less virulent Fox of its day—affirmed that their polling had shown conclusively that President Hoover would win 270 Electoral votes, which in 1932 was four more than was needed for victory.
[Read the U.S. News Debate: Should the United States Get Rid of the Electoral College?]
While waiting for returns at his home in Palo Alto, Calif., President Hoover held onto the belief that a late surge sensed by political operatives and reported by Republican leaning newspapers would carry him to re-election. But then, early in the evening, newspapers around the country, even the Republican ones, called the election for Roosevelt. Hoover excused himself from the guests who'd gathered to listen to the results on radio, went into his study, and wrote a telegram of congratulations to the Democratic victor.
History does repeat itself, and by studying what has come before, political campaigns can avoid the pitfalls that can seal the outcome. Listening outside the echo chamber that is media is an unbeatable endeavor. Facts and figures do have meaning; there's a reason it's called political science. The Romney campaign, much like the Hoover campaign before it, fell victim to the messages of its own spokespeople. Simply put, they got trapped in the spin cycle of laundering reality.

Not just a shirt, but a work of art. This beautiful designer shirt by Verzari sold out within hours!
Houston, Texas (PRWEB) July 08, 2014
The Flare was an instant hit with the stylish fans of Verzari.com. A beautiful long sleeve mens designer shirt with a very unique pattern created by the fashion forward designers at Verzari.com Whats unique about the Flare is the hues of blue and paisley print combined with a solid blue contrast on the collar, cuffs and inner placket.
We knew this shirt was going to be a hit as soon as it came off the cutting floor says Antony Scallone, a head designer at Verzari.com. As with all Verzari shirts, only limited quantities are produced. The fabrics we use in our shirts are high end and unique to Verzari and we can only make so much of a particular shirt. So once they are sold out, they are gone for good, says Mr. Scallone.
Designer shirts similar to the Flare normally cost hundreds of dollars at high end stores like Nordstroms. But Verzari sells directly online which means customers are getting a high quality designer shirt at insanely low prices.
Verzari Shirt Features
Compare Verzari shirts to Robert Graham and other top men's designer shirts but without the designer price tags.

More kids for Angelina and Brad?
Six, apparently, is not enough for Angelina Jolie.
Jolie, 33, is planning on expanding her family of assorted adopted and biological children – possibly with an addition from Haiti.
Asked at the premiere in New York of her new movie "The Changeling" whether she planned more children, Jolie was quoted as telling In Touch Weekly magazine eagerly; "Yes. We're going to have more kids one way or another!."
An unidentified friend of Jolie and Pitt told the magazine the couple could adopt as soon as February.
"Haiti is a favorite right now," the pal explains. "Angie and Brad were touched by the plight of the children they met when they were in the country a couple of years ago. They want a girl who's a little younger than Zahara."

Dager: In everyday life, politeness is an open-door policy
A few years ago, my friend Chill was visiting from the East Coast. She sat in the car while I went into the post office. On my way out, the mayor of Simi Valley, Paul Miller, was walking in.
I held the door for him and said, "Mayor Miller."
He said, "Hello, Wendy, how are you?" We shook hands.
I walked out to the car, where Chill had observed us shaking hands, but hadn't heard the conversation.
"Wow," she said. "In New Jersey, when we hold the door for someone, we just say 'thank you.'"
She was kidding. Of course, she figured I knew the man. But even if I hadn't, I would have held the door for him. Because that's what you do, right?
Which leads me to something that occurred last week.
I made a trip to the bank. A man about my age got out of his car around the same time I got out of mine.
He looked at me. Not a friendly look, but I didn't take it personally. Some people just naturally look grumpy. I was a few paces behind him as he went into the bank, letting go of the door so that it closed in my face as I approached it.
When I enter or leave my bank — or any similar facility — I generally glance behind me to see if someone is following, so I can hold open the door for him or her.
I don't think there's a law saying you're supposed to do this and I don't think the guy at the bank committed a mortal sin, but I doubt it was an honest error. Dude saw me and knew I was behind him.
He let it shut because his momma didn't raise him right, or he's a jerk, or he didn't want to hold the door, which also makes him a jerk.
That's not to say this is the norm. I believe most people will hold open a door — and even if they don't, it's more obliviousness than rudeness — but the ones who stand out tend to be those who ignore your presence on purpose.
I have a relative who theorizes that the reason certain forms of chivalry — like a gentleman holding a door for a lady — are alleged to be deceased is because we women wanted equal rights, so we got 'em — and not always in a good way.
But, as the lovely young bank teller said to me upon hearing my complaint: "It's just manners." Meaning, holding a door is simply a matter of being polite, and anyone can do that, regardless of gender or age.
Almost as bad as not holding open a door is doing so for someone, then sarcastically and loudly saying "you're welcome" to the person for whom you've held the door because the person didn't respond with gratitude or, perhaps, said "thank you" quietly or a little too late.
Seems this small act of holding or not holding the door has too many eventualities, some of them rather unpleasant. I suggest either shaking hands with the person in front of or behind you, or only frequenting venues with automatic doors. If neither is possible, then the best thing to do is try not to be a jerk.

I wrangle with the psychological challenges of life and business.
Ever feel that gnawing pain in your stomach because you…just…can't…decide?
Don't feel bad: Even the greatest leaders suffer from indecision. What distinguishes the best from the rest is the ability to get at the fundamental cause of their mental roadblock—and then set dynamite to it.
Take my former client, whom I'll call JC. This guy built a $400-million enterprise in less than a decade. Along the way, he never suffered indecision. He wasn't rash or foolhardy, and on most days, he knew his mind and had the confidence to act on it.
That changed radically, however, after his company was profitable for seven consecutive quarters and his big backers urged him to kick growth into high gear. Although JC anticipated this directive, given how well his company was performing, it caused him to start second-guessing himself, and eventually brought on serious distress.
Plenty of executives I have coached had the same reaction JC did. It is so prevalent that I gave it a name so I could more readily help folks except it as non-career-threatening: I call it "Executive Yips," like the kind a golfer suffers when sweating over a three-foot, straight-uphill put.
When golfers get the yips, they experience shaky hands, an inability to focus, or unsteady posture. Executives Yips grip business leaders with dread. After setting a course of action and narrowing the strategy to a few choices, they simply freeze up. Typically, in this dilemma, they'll turn to various advisors and ask, "What should I do?" This never works since Executive Yips are never about making the correct choice but, rather, about being blocked from action.
To help JC, I had him consider what he would have to do before he could expand his business. The harsh reality: He had to replace his founding executive team—which included a bunch of JC's college fraternity brothers, a group that was not up to the task. After JC finally dealt with the pain of telling those he truly loved that he would have to let them go, his Executive Yips vanished as suddenly as they appeared.
JC (and I) got lucky on that one. In most cases, folks who struggle with indecision have it bad. Because indecision is ultimately an action issue (rather than a cognitive one), the person gripped by it can look contemplative when, in fact, he is immobilized by fear.
Before I began working with JC, none of his colleagues knew that he was suffering Executive Yips; he always looked before he leaped, so they assumed he was just being judicious in setting a grander course for the business. No one guessed that he was paralyzed by concern for his fraternity brothers. Because indecision has no overt symptoms that reliably distinguish it from deep thought, JC could have languished in that state until his stakeholders roused him with an annoyed, "What's up?"
Chronic indecisiveness can be one of the toughest psychological demons to banish. Here are seven ways to help you pull the trigger when a big part of you would rather do anything but.
Forget About Always Appearing Smart
Plenty of talented people, even those who have made a killing, go to exhaustive lengths not to appear dumb. (For proof, read Paul Allen's recent autobiography: The man has billions but still craves respect.)
Actually, the smarter you are, the more likely your indecision is born of this anxiety. A kid building a startup can be wrong, fail, and feel no shame: "I'm a kid… what do you expect?" Not so for someone with an established reputation to protect. This fear of shame is pernicious, mainly because it's useless. Let it go.
Trust Your Gut (It's Savvier Than You Think)
As Malcolm Gladwell hammers home in Blink, mistrusting emotion-driven decisions can be dangerous. What you refer to as "your gut" is actually a wealth of knowledge marbled with empirically validated facts that you aren't in touch with at critical crossroads.
Better yet, recall the breezy mantra: "If you don't make the right decision, you can make the decision right." If that sounds like cold comfort, set up a straw man—your gut—to absorb criticism if you end up making a poor choice. By making your gut the scapegoat, you protect your analytic self (your cortex) from blame, and prime it for triage, if necessary.
And i like to add few things to the above points that leads to indecisiveness,
1.lack of confidence
3.not satisfied with what they have
4.inconsistency in their work
5.trying to make things look better even if it doesn't work well
6.poor concentration and grasping
7.not interested in anything
8.trying to be satisfied in all things
9.keen about money and not interested in spending
and one last thing they don't know what they really want until they see it and if it happens problem starts!!
Great post.
What I liked is the directness and the illustrations with such clarity
Thank you Professor Berglas. Your post directly addressed problems I have had with indecisiveness. Can you point me (and other Forbes readers) to any books, or other resources, with more information on this topic? Thank you in advance.
.The geared up made ones you must satisfy the vast majority of needs and are available in all selling prices.In a large amount of cases, all the cabinets are mostly dazzling with thimbles, trophies like shot glasses as a result of various destinations, photos, primary chains, devices or souvenir items., in certain cases, the collection will be of highly specific plus special characteristics and capacity (for age.g.significant violins, autographed sports weapons like baseball bats, keyrings, awards, plaques etc) in that case a made to order cabinet might be asked to hold the products in the actual order as well as manner important.
Curio and additionally display cabinets are usually wood fixtures.They come into play Victorian or classic versions or around modern in addition to trendy patterns

Ada —
Edwina Lowry stood in a room in the church building at Ninth and Oak, pointing to the areas where a commercial kitchen is slowly taking shape.
The Ada woman is a member of Abba's Tables, a new organization aimed at feeding hungry people in the area. The organization is a mission outreach project of Olive Branch Fellowship, which has bought the building at Ninth and Oak.
Volunteers are converting the room into a commercial kitchen, and Abba's Tables officials are raising money so they can start feeding people, Lowry said Thursday.
She said the organization has generated about $700 in monthly pledges so far, but it needs at least $2,500 a month before it can begin serving meals.
"What we need here at the beginning is individuals to step out," Lowry said. "The reason is that churches already have their money committed, and so they are having to put us on boards for discussion of how to move money around to support us. Individuals can instantly say, 'Well, I can give $10 a month.'
"And so our first support to get us started is going to be individuals. Two or three years down the line, our support's probably going to come from the churches or a mix of the two."

50 Cent Bulletproof presents 50 Cent in a unique visceral experience combining hard-hitting action and unprecedented interaction with his music. Inspired by a climactic event in his life the urban fable follows 50 Cent as he survives being shot 9 times ergo bulletproof during an ambush and vows to seek revenge against his enemies the most dangerous crime families in the city. His vengeance leads him down a bloody path through New York s drug underworld where he uncovers an international conspiracy with devastating implications. With no other options 50 must fight his way out of a vicious web of corruption, double-crosses and shady deals.
50 Cent: Bulletproof (also known as Fifty Cent: Bulletproof) is an Action/Adventure video game for Xbox published by Vivendi Universal Interactive on November 17, 2005. It's rated Mature by the ESRB and 29 of our users have voted it 4.2 out of 5 stars.

Go out carefully, as there are a lot of enemies. Using a counter kill is recommended. You will then get a task to find K- Dog's phone. It is in the room where you found him dead. You will then get a task to open four locks. All the locks are in the room, but you may need to activate things. Note: You are with Lloyd Banks so this is easier.

The Tonawanda News
Tonawanda News — I had to laugh at NT's proposal of offering $1,000 a year for 10 years for anybody who converts a mansion on Christiana or Goundry to a single-family home. First of all, it would take an enormous amount of money to convert those homes back into a single-family home. Just the taxes on those mansions are astronomical, not to mention what it would take to heat them. The only people that could afford to live there would be the people who live in the Spaulding Lakes community in Clarence surrounded by all their millionaire neighbors. There's no way people with that kind of money are going to live next to welfare people in mansion apartments. This proposal is a pipe dream.
Yes, it's true that the City of Tonawanda has nothing going on for it. Once in a great while they have something in the news because your mayor doesn't want anything going on in this city. They want this to be a perfect little quiet town, well that's not a fun town that is a boring place to live. Maybe he forgets when his children were young that they loved doing all this stuff in the City of Tonawanda, going to all these things, all the music and everything else. Now there is nothing, we need to go to NT to have fun, it's not because we're a smaller city like Barbara Tucker said. It's because the mayor wants nothing in this town at all. Don't forget that when it's time for election, he has sucked everything away from the people in the City of Tonawanda.
I'm tired of hearing people say that the casinos always take away from the neighborhood and the businesses around it and so on and so forth. I believe that without the casino in Niagara Falls, nobody would even go there. I've lived in the Falls for so many years and there's nothing there, there's no stores, there's no shopping, there's no fun places there. It's dirty, scummy, roads are bad and so on. I think the casino has taken nothing away, if anything it enhances the city because it's the only decent-looking place in the whole city — unless you're right in the falls. And I find that most people are going over the bridge, that's why your bridge is so tied up, to go into Canada because that's where everything is — in Canada. But the casino has taken nothing away, if anything it's brought people from the area to the Falls, to the casino. And there was no stores and shops and all that stuff that they were taking away from, no restaurants, there's nothing good in the Falls. So what're they complaining about?
Don't forget, God is against same-sex marriage. And if you think people nowadays are going to win, you're absolutely wrong. The Bible says God is against same-sex marriage. And if you think you have a victory today, you have, but in the long-run you're going to lose.

Lighting accounts for about 20% of the electric bill in the average U.S. home. Switch to ENERGY STAR certified compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs and light emitting diode (LED) bulbs and save. They provide the same amount of brightness as standard bulbs and use less energy. Each incandescent bulb you replace with an ENERGY STAR certified light bulb will save you about $10 in energy costs each year. Imagine if you replace all of your light bulbs!
With new technology, ENERGY STAR light bulbs provide warm and inviting light without the flickering and humming of older fluorescent bulbs. ENERGY STAR certified light bulbs can replace regular bulbs in lamps and are available in a variety of styles, shapes and sizes. They can also be purchased in dimmable models and models compatible with motion sensors.
Purchase discounted ENERGY STAR certified light bulbs:
Save Money with ENERGY STAR Light Bulbs
While both ENERGY STAR certified CFLs and LED bulbs save you energy and money, LED bulbs provide the greatest savings. The chart below outlines lifetime savings that can be attributed to using an LED or a CFL instead of an incandescent light bulb:
*Assumes 3.2 hours of daily use at $0.15 cost per kWh
**Lifetime cost to operate for the same length of time equivalent to one LED bulb, including incandescent and CFL replacement costs.
How to Choose the Right Light Bulb
Step 1: Find the right style of bulb. CFL and LED bulbs are now available in many shapes and sizes for your needs. For example, CFL and LED bulbs are now made for 3-way, dimmable and outdoor lighting. Check the packaging for the right bulb style, base size and correct usage. Check out ENERGY STAR's interactive Choose a Light Guide to help you find the best one.
Step 2: Look for the Lighting Facts Label on the light bulb packaging. The Lighting Facts Label is a tool to compare different light bulbs. The label provides a summary of a bulb's light output (lumens), the amount of energy needed to light the product (watts), color of light (Kelvin), and whether or not it is dimmable.
Step 3: Pick the right color of light. CFLs and LED bulbs come in a variety of shades of light, from yellow, to white, to blue. Check the Kelvins (K) on the package to find the right color for you.
Step 4: Look at the amount of lumens (not watts) to find out the brightness of the bulb. To save energy and money, find the bulbs with the brightness (lumens) you need. Then, choose the one that needs the least amount of energy (watts). To make it easy, many LED and CFL packages tell you the wattage of the incandescent bulb it replaces – which is its "brightness equivalent." Learn how much light output you need.
How to Safely Dispose of CFLs
Because CFLs contain a small amount of mercury, EPA recommends that consumers take advantage of available local recycling options for CFLs. You can contact your local municipal solid waste agency directly, or go to EPA's CFL Webpage or www.earth911.org to identify local recycling options. If your CFL breaks, we recommend that you follow EPA's instructions for Cleaning up a Broken CFL.

In any event, the race went off nicely. Someone put a lot of hills in the first two miles - we were in Orchard Park - but the course calmed down after that. Organizers are already talking about next year, a good sign.
More races are coming up this weekend, although the schedule has turned light. Here's the list, compiled by buffalorunners.com:
* St. Gregory The Great Great Race, 5K, 100 St. Gregory Court in Williamsville, 7 p.m. Friday, 479-2442. It's a News Runner of the Year race, and it might be the flattest course in Western New York. The event usual draws a big crowd.
* MSMH River Run, 5K, 145 North 4th St. in Lewiston, 9 a.m. Saturday, 298-2249.
* ChrisFit Fest 5K, 841 Center St. in Lewiston, 9 a.m. Sunday, 524-3001. When did Lewiston become the running capital of the region? Apparently - this weekend.
And in addition, there's time here for one more shameless plug. The Buffalo Broadcasters Celebrity 5K Run will be held at the Central Wharf on Wednesday. It starts at 7 p.m. The shameless part is that I'm a member of the organization, even if I don't qualify as a "celebrity." It's a nice course on the waterfront that's great for a summer night.
