P-737 PIFOC® Piezostage: Fast Piezo-Z Stage for Microscope Automation, 3D-Imaging
PI -- the inventor of high-speed Piezo-Z objective steppers--introduces the new P-737 PIFOC® PiezoStage for high performance Z-focusing applications.
Features & Advantages
The P-737 specimen Z-stage is a new member in a large family of products for microscope automation. Specifically designed for research microscopes utilizing deconvolution and 3D imaging techniques, the P-737 PIFOC® specimen piezo Z-stage features up to 250 µm travel, millisecond responsiveness and nanometer precise motion under closed-loop control.
High resolution 3D-Microscopy / Z-stack Image Acquisition: How it Works
The PIFOC® units are ideal for high speed Z-stack image acquisition, the basis for the generation of 3-D views of samples in high-resolution, optical microscopes. Conventional Z-drives use a motorized actuator and motor controller to create numerous focus planes during focusing. The individual "slices" are then processed with special software to form one 3-D image. PIFOC® systems are compatible with all major image acquisition packages.
Faster and Higher Resolution with Piezo
Piezo-actuated Z-drives, can achieve significantly higher focusing speed (typically 5 to 10 msec vs. 100 to 500 msec) and resolution (typically 1 nm vs. 0.1 µm) than stepper motor-drives and thus provide higher-quality images in less time.
Piezo Z-Stages and Objective Steppers
The P-737 PIFOC® piezo-stage is an addition to the extremely successful PIFOC® brand of high-speed Piezo objective Z-steppers. While no sample stage can beat the speed of the fastest PIFOC® objective positioners (due to the stiffer, more compact design), the P-737 PIFOC® stage allows for convenient Z-stack imaging with multiple objectives and very high throughput.
Piezo Z-Stages vs. Conventional Stepper Focus Drives
The fast response of the P-737 piezostage fully utilizes the high throughput of the latest digital imaging systems and achieves 20 to 50 times faster response than conventional stepper motor focus drives.
The P-737 PIFOC® stage is available with a number of analog and highly sophisticated digital piezostage controllers and can be controlled through digital interfaces as well as by fast analog signals through a high-speed 0-10V input. The system is fully compatible with all leading imaging acquisition packages. For ease of integration, a comprehensive set of LabView drivers is included, even with the analog control option.
Application Examples
3D imaging, cell biology, Z-stack acquisition, autofocusing, scanning and alignment tasks in microscopy, biotechnology.

- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
- About 2 pounds ripe mango
- 2 tablespoons ginger-flavored liqueur (optional)
- Fresh mint leaves
- 1. Crack cardamom pods by gently pressing with a rolling pin. Combine with 4 cups milk in a 3- to 4-quart pan; stir occasionally over medium-high heat until milk is boiling, 9 to 15 minutes.
- 2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup sugar, the cornstarch, and the ground cardamom. Stir in remaining 1/4 cup milk. When milk in pan is boiling, remove from heat and gradually whisk in cornstarch mixture. Return to medium-low heat and stir just until mixture comes to a boil, 3 to 7 minutes. Pour through a fine strainer set over a bowl; discard residue. Ladle pudding into 6 to 8 small bowls or ramekins (3/4- to 1-cup capacity). Let cool about 10 minutes, then cover and chill until cold and set, at least 1 1/2 hours.
- 3. Pit and peel mango. Cut flesh into about 1-inch chunks (you need 2 cups). In a food processor or blender, combine 2 cups mango, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and ginger liqueur if using; whirl just until mango is coarsely puréed (mixture should be slightly chunky). Cover and chill.
- 4. Just before serving, spoon all of the mango mixture evenly over puddings. Garnish with mint leaves.

In Chapter 6, we see Wozniak introduced to "phreaking" when he read an article in Esquire called "Secrets of the Little Blue Box." This article claimed to be fiction but Wozniak was convinced that it was real based on the detail it contained and he investigated further. How did this extend his knowledge and understanding of computers? Before reading this book, did you know what "phreaking" was? If so, have you had any experience with it?

Keith Letourneau said he wasn't on drugs.
He might have had a drink or two in the first half Sunday, but his reactions to the Ravens' win in Denver were purely natural for the emotional Bel Air resident, he and wife Rachel said in a radio interview Wednesday morning.
"He's always intense and loud when watching a Ravens game for sure," Rachel Letourneau said in an interview on 105.7 The Fan Wednesday. "But this was the first time he was acting like he needed to go into Sheppard Pratt."
In the interview with 105.7 The Fan, Letourneau said she saw her husband getting excited in the first half of Saturday's AFC Division playoff game.
So she did what any smart wife would do: she video taped his antics and posted it on YouTube. From there, sports websites picked up on the clips, and the series went viral.
"I had no idea. I didn't start recording until after halftime because I saw this crazy reaction to the first half," she said on The Norris and Davis Show.
Check out the videos included with this post to see Letourneau react to Ravens touchdowns and interceptions. As of Wednesday morning, the three clips had more than 300,000 views combined.
TELL US: How did you react to the win? Leave a comment.
Do you have video of the reaction where you watched the game? Share it by posting here.

Tips and Tricks: Measuring!
One of the things we love to do is help folks find which socks will work best for them. That's why we put as much information as we can into the Sizing Tips on each product page and try to give as much real-life testing as we can into the styles we carry. Sometimes you've got to scroll a little to see it, depending on your monitor size, but it's there!
And if it isn't, or you've had a different experience, let us know via email and we'll make sure things are up to date! So many products we carry are wrapped up in packaging and sometimes things sneakily change in a way we don't notice until you let us know.
So okay, the information is there, but you're still unsure—or, you've got a particular fit issue or need and our Advanced Search isn't helping? Then it's time for our handy-dandy contact form! Select "Sizing Query" from the topic drop-down and make sure your email address is correct so we can get back to you.
Now for your question itself! Something we tell folks a lot is that "large", "skinny", "plus" or really most adjectives and dress sizes don't mean much without context. Who knows what clothing sizes mean anymore (besides, they're based on everything but the measurements we need)! If you write us saying you've got "tiny calves" and nothing stays up or you've got "curvy thighs" and stockings always roll, we can only give you the vaguest help. But we want to give you specific help! So here's what you've gotta do for ultimate sock searching assistance: measure!
Even if you don't sew, a tailors tape (or fabric measuring tape) is the best $2 tool to have. I use mine to measure weird spaces furniture needs to go as much as I do when sewing! But, if you don't have one, don't worry. The same ability to measure around stuff is just as easy to obtain with some yarn or string and a regular ol' ruler.
You just wrap the yarn around what you're measuring, then lay it out next to a ruler and BAM! Measurements.
In general, a good reference for where you need to measure for what coverage of sock is the image on the Measurements & Sizes page (shown below with common coverage highlighted for easy reference). We also like to know your shoe size, too, particularly if you have smaller or larger feet than the average sock you encounter.
But more information is always useful, so after the jump we've got some slightly more in-depth tips for measurements to send with your sizing question.

Colours: Pinks!
One of the most floral ranges of hue is pink, I even recently looked at pastel pinks when talking about the start of spring and cherry blossoms. As we focus on pink specifically this week, I'm going to look at the deeper shades of the hue. I was actually so taken with the range of pinks our suppliers offer that I forgot to take a snap of them all snuggled up on my desk, so you'll have to be satisfied with this bit of my screen from when I was editing the shots.
Disclaimer time! I'm not trying to define pink. If you want some poem-like lists of names for shades of pink, both Wikipedia and the Color Sorting Wiki are kind of amazing resources. I've done my best to accurately represent these hues in relation to each other, so you can gather a good idea of what matches and what doesn't.
First off, let me note that I'm not looking at pastel tints right now. What makes a pink a pastel instead of a light (or "baby") pink is a little indefinable, but I draw the line somewhere between the Solid Opaque Thigh High in Light Pink (on the left, below) and the Opaque Thigh Highs with Bows (on the right). The former is light pink, the latter is pastel.
I'm not looking at neons either, we'll take in electric pink with other eye-searing shades another time.
Now, elastic colour can make a huge difference in how a pink reads. You can see that the heel of the O Chevron on the left is the same colour as the O Basic on the right, but the black elastic of the O Chevron gives the yarn a salmon-y touch.
The size of the stitch and yarn also makes a little bit of a difference, as the Super Stripes on the left and the Pink Knees on the right (both made with Pink and Bubblegum yarn) show.
Let's look at how our different suppliers do this delicate shade!
DreaM Stockings & Dreamer Socks
Though we don't offer that many versions of pink, we do quickly run the gamut from bold to soft. The middle shade (Bubblegum) matches pretty well, tonally, between both DreaM Stockings and Dreamer Socks. Our lightest pink isn't baby/ballerina pink, there's a little yellow to it that warms it up.
From left to right: Cotton Slouch, Cotton Slouch, Extraordinary Thigh High, Cotton Slouch
Like a lot of their colour treatments, B.Ella runs richer in hue, with a delicious Raspberry as their darkest pink.
From left to right: Kimi Wool Blend OTKs, Erin Wool & Silk Socks, Meg Unconstricted Top Crew
EG Smith
Though their bootsocks' pink is quite pastel, they do offer a great lighter pink in a gorgeous heather. And, like B.Ella, offer a delicious raspberry.
From left to right: Heather Over the Knee Stockings, ECO Scalloped Top Crew
Foot Traffic
Their pinks tend to run cold, which is a great option and is probably what keeps their fuchsia from busting into neon or berry in tone.
From left to right: Signature Cotton Leggings, Solid Opaque Thigh Highs, Opaque Tights, Diamond Jester Trouser Socks
As usual, Tabbisocks brings some unique and gorgeous versions of the hue, dabbling heavily in petal-perfect shades of rose (when they aren't killing it with neon).
From left to right: Color Tights, Harajuku Scrunchy Socks, Harajuku Arm Warmers, Harajuku Leg Warmers
Everybody has some kind of pink, and it often seems like if that's their only version of the hue, there's something unique about it.
From left to right: Classic ToeToe Socks, Acrylic Fingerless Shorties, Silk Knee High
Such a selection of pinks! But do any go together? Are there delightful themes we can group them by? Of course! See it all after the jump!

Socks for: Thrones (and games of)
Spring is here and winter is coming!
If you watch the show, you know what we're talking about. Based on the epic series by George R. R. Martin, the television show Game of Thrones is a visually rich (and rather violent) series that's starting back up in just a couple of days! It's really your classic, sweeping, epic fantasy wherein large family tribes battle for honour and glory. But the costumes. Oh MAN, the costumes.
The beautiful hand embroidery and surface embellishment (like these pieces by the amazingly skilled Michele Carragher, for example) help illustrate and underline each character's loyalties and position. All the families have a crest with a sigil and motto that is worked into the more elaborate costumes. Taking that idea and applying it to socks (naturally), we've got some styles to suggest that can add a new layer of meaning to your look. And, of course, dressing up for watching the show is highly encouraged!
House Stark
Motto: Winter is Coming
Sigil: Direwolf, represented by Wild Furry Warmers
Colours: White & Grey, represented by Harajuku Arm Warmers and the Silk Anklets
House Baratheon
Motto: Ours is the Fury
Sigil: Stag, represented by the Antler Midcalf
Colours: Black & Gold, represented by the Gangsta Crews
House Targaryen
Motto: Fire and Blood
Sigil: Three-headed dragon, represented by the Dragon Knee High
Colours: Red & Black, represented by Over the Knee Flames and the Snappy Spiked Sock Garters
House Lannister
Motto: Hear Me Roar!
Sigil: Lion, represented by the Grumpy Cat Leggings
Colours: Gold & Red, represented by the Snappy D-Ring Garters

March Dreamers Recommend!
It's by pure accident that each month's birthday Dreamers are picking styles perfect for the (Northern hemisphere's) seasonal weather. And it happens once more with March!
Rosalind runs our Facebook and Pinterest most notably, and you can probably place the blame on her for some of our most egregiously dorky puns. For her recommended style Rosalind picked a perfect option for transitional seasons like spring:
Okay, this might be sacrilegious or something, but the thing that really stands out as my ultimate favorite isn't actually a sock. The Long Cuffable Scrunchable Leg Warmers are my absolute favorite thing to put on my legs. They're exactly like one of my favorite socks, only without the sock part. Not having a foot means that I can wear them with shoes that are too tight for thicker socks, or to sleep in (my feet always get too hot if I wear socks in bed). The best thing about them, though, is that you don't have to wash them after every wear, because there is no foot to get stinky! It's that rare marriage of fashion and laziness that I love so much.
Toby, the gentleman dog also pictured above, does not seem to have a favourite sock himself, as there is yet no sock that gives you belly scratches. And although he's snuck into several of Rosalind's shoots, he's not the birthday boy here! So, back to Rosalind.
While looking for styles Rosalind has modelled for us, I realised something. More often than not, she models a style that gets discontinued quickly or she models tights! I have no idea why the discontinued styles thing happens, but I do know why we always get shots of her in tights. She's our long inseam tester and if Rosalind says a style of tights won't cramp your toes, they won't cramp your toes.
• Floral Bloom Lace Tights •
• Sheer Star Tights •
• Striped Tights •
Other than legs for miles, Rosalind also has another key skill to bring to product shots: tiny dinosaur. You'd think this wouldn't be vital for a perfect shot, but that's crazy talk. Even out of focus, a tiny dinosaur is absolutely necessary.
• Godzilla Tabi •
• Harajuku Arm Warmers •
Next up is Lucy, who works in our Customer Service department and is one of my favourite rays of true sunshine. Like a lot of us here, Lucy has a signature colour, which would be the brightest pink you can handle (best when paired with royal purple and deep teal!). Her recommendation is one of the most spring-inspiring socks we've got, with flowers and a gradient that is like the season's transition from cold to warm:
My absolute favorite socks are the Tibetan Flower Crew socks. The fuchsia pair were the first socks I purchased when I started working here, and are every bit as snugly and comfortable as they are gorgeous. Once it looked like we weren't going to be able to restock them, so I bought a pair in each color, plus an extra fuchsia, just in case. Fortunately, they stuck around, and now they're my go-to sock. I wear them in boots in the winter and mary-janes in the summer, and one day I'll probably own enough pairs to wear one each day of the week.
And since they've got two new colours (Red and Green, which don't have pictures up just yet), Lucy won't even have to repeat a colour of 'em during the work week! Her love of colour and gameness to try new styles makes Lucy one of the go-to models for crazy toe socks. She's even got a pair of flip flops stashed away in her desk for sudden toe sock picture emergencies.
• Knee High Toe Socks •
• Color Blocks Toe Socks •
How Lucy keeps her sunny, bright cheerfulness even during the big rush of Christmas season is pretty obvious to me. She's magic. Look, you can tell by the styles she's modelled. Wizarding school arm warmers? A fairy wand in a picture of sock garters? Clearly, magic. Or maybe, all of us Dreamers are. . .
So onward and ahead to proper spring and shorter socks (if April behaves, anyhow!) Here's a trick for these transitional seasons: the styles we put into our Autumn category have similar properties to what goes in Spring. For Autumn we just focus on darker colours, less flowers, the warmer end of the midweight scale and wool!

The sweet start of Spring!
The first official day of spring was yesterday, and we know that some of you folks out east are still experiencing wintery wildness and that folks in the Southern hemisphere have been undergoing quite the sultry summer, but! Here in Portland, cherry blossoms are bursting awake and drifting about like fairytale snow—when they aren't being pummelled by the rain, anyhow.
• Cherry Blossom Knee Highs •
• Cherry Blossom Printed Footless Tights •
So, inspired by spring and the blossoms it brings, here are some of our prettiest pastel pinks and whites in styles that are prefect for those tricky transitional seasons.
Clockwise from top: Signature Cotton Leggings, O Basics, Harajuku Leg Warmers, Bastia Comfort Top Crew, GoGo Bootsocks
Clockwise from top: Dreamy Bamboo Patterned OTKs, Color Tights, Alpaca Beehive Knit Long Arm Warmers, Heather Socklings, Crochet Lover Over the Knee
Clockwise from top: Super Stripes Knee Highs, Extraordinary Thigh Highs, Pink Knees, Super Stripes, M Squared
Clockwise from top: Opaque Thigh High with Bows, Skater Stripes, Space Dyed Terry Shorties, Ballerina Knee High, Multisport Compression Knee High
Even if the lion of March keeps roaring into April, we got a glimpse of the flowers full spring will bring!

50 years of James Bond style, inside and out
To mark the anniversary of the iconic spy films, several websites have put together some of the best locations and interiors.
One of the things that distinguishes James Bond is his style. That style carries over into the environments used in each Bond movie. The latest installment, "Skyfall," opens Nov. 9.
In honor of the 50th anniversary of the first Bond film ("Dr. No," 1962), several websites have rounded up locations that epitomize Bond style – real venues that appeared in the films and memorable stages sets.
Of the 22 locations that made Curbed's list of the films' best locations, only two are in the United States.
Post continues below
The Elrod House in Palm Springs, Calif., was just 2 years old in 1971 when it hit the silver screen in "Diamonds Are Forever" as the home of a reclusive billionaire where Bond battled two assassins in bikinis.
The modern home was designed by California architect John Lautner for designer Arthur Elrod, who said, "Give me what you think I should have on this lot."
He ended up with a futuristic home carved into the rock in the hills above Palm Springs. A massive, domed concrete roof covers the living room and part of the deck of the indoor-outdoor pool. You can see a floor plan with photos at the Elrod House website.
According to Visit Palm Springs, "Diamonds" set designer Ken Adams said he knew the house was right for the film the moment he saw it. His comments: "I said, 'This as though I designed it. I don't have to do anything.' … It was a reinforced concrete structure, very modern and fabulous."
The home is owned by a real-estate investor and is occasionally opened for fundraisers and tours. The owner put it on the market for $13.89 million in July 2011, but it was taken off the market toward the end of the year.
The other real U.S. location in the Curbed list is the iconic Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami Beach, Fla., designed by Morris Lapidus and built in 1954. That property, which underwent a massive, $1 billion renovation in 2008, appeared in the 1964 film "Goldfinger."
Architectural Digest rounded up its list of favorite sets from the 23 Bond films. The Elrod House is the lead photo.

The Summer Research Opportunity Program (SROP)
- The Program
- History and Achievements
- Comments of Past Student Participants
- Benefits and Conditions
- Who May Apply
- Application
- Potential Faculty Mentors
- Guidelines for Students and Faculty Mentors
- Corporate and Government Sponsorship
The research training is coupled with activities that prepare students for the graduate school application process, success in graduate school, and the development of their professional careers. Workshop topics include preparation for GREs, research presentations and communication skills. The summer research experience culminates with students writing a final paper and presenting their findings. The SROP is designed to position students for success in their graduate and professional careers.
The SROP provides both fun and intensive training. Participants are expected to make a full-time commitment to their research, work energetically on their projects, and develop a professional attitude toward their research, faculty supervisors, SROP administrators and fellow student researchers. During the eight-week period of the SROP, each participant is expected to work at least 30-40 hours per week on their project. The hard work is rewarded with plenty of social time to develop new friendships and explore Chicago.
History and Achievements
For 28 years, the Northwestern University SROP has provided undergraduates with an opportunity for direct involvement in research and a taste of graduate student life at a world class university. Its mission has been to increase diversity among students pursuing graduate education and to provide a valuable academic research experience for students.
The success of Northwestern SROP participants has been significant. Our most recent statistics indicate that 61% of the NU SROP students who complete their bachelor's degrees have enrolled in graduate or professional schools across the country. This is more than double the national average where only about 30% of bachelor's degree recipients pursue advanced study. The SROP is also a great tool for recruiting students to and maximizing the diversity of Northwestern's graduate programs. Past participants have come from colleges and universities including:

- a $4000 stipend
- a round-trip plane ticket (to Chicago)
- University housing (single rooms)
- a meal subsidy of $450 (not intended to cover all meals)
SROP participants who choose to live off campus will be responsible for their housing expenses during the summer.
Early Admission Decision Program
This program provides an accelerated and early admission process that enables qualified rising seniors to apply for admission to a Northwestern PhD program without submitting GRE scores. The qualification process begins between a student's sophomore and junior year. Rising juniors who successfully complete their SROP research project and demonstrate that they have the potential to succeed in a Northwestern PhD program may be invited back for a second SROP experience. If they choose to accept the invitation and the first 4 to 5 weeks of their second summer experience go well, they may be invited to participate in the Early Admission Decision Program (EADP).
Students who accept an invitation to participate in the EADP will participate in admission interviews and submit an admission application by October 1st. Admission decisions will be sent out by November 1st. Please note that some programs/departments do not participate in the EADP.
Course Credit

By Kelsea Stahler, Hollywood.com Staff
Dear fans of The X Factor, Glee, and any other Fox programs ripped from the schedule thanks to the World Series,
Simmer down now.
I'm sorry, that was harsh. I mean, cool your jets. Every year, Fox hosts this little thing known as the Major League Baseball post-season, this includes the anxiety-inducing playoffs and of course, the Big Kahuna: the World Series. Game 1 aired last night, and it was glorious.
For most fans of sports, fun, and America, this time of year is exciting. It's a pre-holiday blitz of irrational yelling, elated and unintelligible cheering, and sanctioned drinking on a work night. It's one of the best times of the year. It's a time when you get to enjoy the faux-anger of a team rivalry with your friends and cohorts in a friendly (though it doesn't always appear that way) display every time the boys in blue (or red or orange or green) take the field. It's great, so great that we temporarily forget that we're without episodes of some of our favorite televisual escapes.
"How could you forget?" you may ask. "We're eagerly anticipating the return of Rachel Berry and Co. How can you handle the wait?" Well, there are a few answers to your questions (one for each potential game of the Series).
1. Baseball. Champions. Are. Important.
Don't you see? Whoever wins the World Series earns bragging rights for their fans for an entire year. From the end of November until October the following year, the champs' fans get to boast, brag, and beat their chests and no one can say nay - except, of course, the losing side who earns a year of the phrase "we were robbed." This is a big deal.
2. It only happens once a year.
That means for approximately a week and half with a few other nights peppered in throughout October, you have to put up with baseball taking over your beloved Fox shows. Only once! Then it's over and you're back to trying to figure out which of Britney Spears' singers deserves to sing again next week. Breathe. It will be okay.
3. There's simply not enough time in the day.
Some of us love both television and baseball. What? How could that be possible? It just is. And for those of us who love both sport and entertainment, it's a blessing to have a bit of a programming break during postseason baseball. Who has time to watch a three (or so) hour baseball game and then watch the three hours of TV that happened while the baseball was going on? Not many people. We have jobs, you know.
4. Think of Postseason Baseball like Christmas break.
Look, your TV shows take a winter hiatus for two weeks before Christmas and two weeks after New Year's Eve. That's a might huge break, and the networks don't even replace all that empty space with alternate programming. It's just reruns! If you can stomach that, you can stomach a few weeks of America's greatest pastime.
5. It's American, and you live in 'Merica.
This is also known as the "everybody's doing it" argument. Last year, when the St. Louis Cardinals battled the Texas Rangers, an average of 16.6 million viewers tuned in over the span of seven games, reaching a peak of 25.4 million viewers during the final, series-ending showdown. That's a lot of people. That many people can't be wrong, right?
6. If you want it to be over, you have a built-in excuse to root for the team that's ahead.
My father would cry foul over such a suggestion, but why not turn your rage at the absence of Will Shuester's curly coif by channeling your rage into ardent support of whatever team is ahead in the World Series. After all, it only takes four wins to take the title, the more games the winningest team takes early on, the faster the whole thing will be over with.
7. Books are still a thing, you know.
Okay, so you don't like any of my reasons. Fine. Remember those pages full of words we used to read in school? They're like magazines, but longer and with fewer pictures. Some of your favorite television shows and movies couldn't exist without the books that inspired them. If you're not going to enjoy one of the greatest games known to man, then do yourself a favor and read a book. It will be fun, I promise.
The Detroit Tigers and the San Francisco Giants face off in Game 2 of the World Series Friday at 7:30 PM ET.

KRISTEN STEWART and ROBERT PATTINSON have officially "broken up," says Forbes.
For real?
No one really knows where Kristen Stewart stands in her rocky relationship with Robert Pattinson ever since news broke that she cheated on him with her married director from "Snow White and the Huntsman," Rupert Sanders.
While reports confirm that they're no longer living together, that both are heartbroken and depressed about the incident and that Robert's anger with Kristen has started to wind down, the couple have not officially split up yet.
But now, Forbes reveals that the couple has in fact broken up… and it caused them to slide off one of the magazine's much coveted lists.
Forbes told Huffington Post:
"Stewart and Pattinson were, in fact, left off of the list because they are broken up."
The couple made it to the 5th spot in the same list in 2011 with an estimated earning of $40 million but have been replaced by Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith.
Do you think Forbes is telling the truth or was it just speculation that cost Kristen and Robert a spot on the list?

FOX 32 News has teamed up with no-kill shelter PAWS Chicago to bring you an adoptable pet each week. This week, we're featuring Comet and Kit.
Comet is a 3-year-old feline who loves to out the window and keep track of all the on-goings in the neighborhood. Comet loves children, mouse toys, watching TV and spending time with his human companions.
Kit is a gentle 6-year-old Shepherd mix looking for someone to give her plenty of love and affection. She is very shy at first, but warms up quickly when you rub her belly. Kit is incredibly smart, knows many tricks and has already completed agility training.
Comet and Kit will be available for adoption Monday at noon. If an adopter doesn't come along, they are hoping to find a temporary foster home, as they would enjoy a break from the busy shelter life.
You can meet Comet, Kit and other animals in need of forever homes at the PAWS Chicago Adoption & Humane Center in the Lincoln Park neighborhood.

Deep garnet in color with delightful aromas of ripe plums, fresh raspberries, summer berries and rose tea. The generous aromas are echoed in the palate, which is supple and well structured with great length of flavors. The signature style of Blackstone is an "integrated" Merlot with rich fruit; surrounded by elegant creaminess, supple oak flavors and firm tannins. Blackstone Merlot is friendly, flavorful and balanced, encouraging the marriage between food and wine.
Alcohol: 13.0% by volume
Sonoma County has always been Blackstone's home and inspiration. Since our beginning we've established a reputation for consistently delivering balanced, reliable wines of uncompromising quality
From the start, our goal has been to produce smooth, flavorful, harmonious wines with rich fruit, supple texture, and balanced oak. Early on, this approach found its ideal expression in our Merlot, which soon became — and still remains — America's favorite Merlot.
California has nearly 100 American Viticulture Areas (AVAs) and accounts for almost 90% of wine production in the United States. In our section of Other California, we include wines from smaller AVAs as well as wines from the California AVA. Here are a few smaller AVAs you may see on the label:

So, I have a sort of specific technical scriptwriting question. You know in comics when one character is talking in a panel, and their dialogue is broken up into - say - two balloons... But sometimes the word balloons are completely separate while other times they're linked, and noted by 'linked' (strangely enough!) in the script.
At times, it seems obvious why you'd link the word balloons, e.g. if the character has a longer speech on the same subject, you can break it down into a couple of balloons - or even three - and have them linked so there's only one 'tail' pointing to the character's head. But I've noticed that some writers might not bother linking the multiple word balloons at all. Or they split one off into its own balloon, while linking two of them.
Example 1 (Bottom left panel, Dinah's speech)
Example 2 for comparison.
Does it all depend on context, dramatic effect, spacing of word balloons on the panel so as not to disrupt the art, etc. etc.? Is there some Important Rule that I don't know about?
Am I worrying too much?

Lakeland Bank Announces Share-A-Gift Program
All locations collecting holiday gifts for local charities
Oak Ridge, N.J. – November 23, 2011
–– All Lakeland Bank office locations will participate in the company's annual tradition of collecting gifts to support those in the community who need some extra help during the holiday season. A Share-A-Gift tree decorated with special ornaments will be in each office from December 1 through December 16.
"Our Share-A-Gift program is a united effort between our employees and our customers," said Thomas J. Shara, president and CEO of Lakeland Bank. "Together, we bring cheer to those in our community dealing with difficult situations."
Each Lakeland Bank office selects a special charity in their community that they want to help during the holiday season. Employees decorate trees with special ornaments that provide details about the gift recipient. The recipient may be a young child, a teenager, a single parent, or even an elderly citizen, but all of them are neighbors who need some assistance. Participation consists of taking an ornament, and in return, giving a gift or cash donation for the individual described on the ornament tag.
"Every year we are pleased to see the level of support and generosity that comes from this program, and we look forward to carrying on this tradition of giving back to the community," Shara stated.
About Lakeland Bank
Lakeland Bancorp, the holding company for Lakeland Bank, has an asset base of approximately $2.7 billion and 47 offices spanning six northern New Jersey counties: Bergen, Essex, Morris, Passaic, Sussex and Warren.

To perform a search, enter a keyword, phrase or item number in the search field and click "search."
We offer two ways to locate information:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
The focus of the Buena Vista Estate Vineyard Series is our remarkable 700-acre Estate vineyard in the heart of Carneros. Set along a south-facing hillside overlooking the San Francisco Bay, this breathtaking property has more than 100 blocks delineated by geology and topography.
The 2006 Ramal Vineyard Pinot Noir is deep purple in color with aromas of blackberry, mocha, toast, damp earth, cardamom and roasted nuts. It continues with a spicy entry and flavors of black cherry, cocoa, broad sweet tannins and cherry liqueur. The wine lingers with a long rich finish balanced by great acid and fruit definition. The Dijon clones exhibit more structure than the Swan Selection and lend to darker black fruit characteristics. Bold enough to pair with a roasted rosemary rack of lamb along with new spring red potatoes.
"Serious white wine. Dense and full-bodied, it's incredibly lush in tropical fruit and apricot flavors. Entirely dry, it shows a honey-sweet layer that's crisp and well-balanced."
92 Points
Wine Enthusiast
"Complex aromas of roasted grains, wood smoke, ripe apples and subtle hints of crème brûlée are joined in aromas that are both deep and far-ranging. The wine is full in body and somewhat on the soft side, but that softness is never overdone, and it stays in balance while allowing easy access to its deep personality even at this youthful juncture. Less in need of aging that many of our other top picks, this wine will be fully enjoyable today and should hold up well for a few years yet."

text: Clinton County Sheriff's Deputies are trying to figure how a boy escaped from Turning Point Youth Center, a facility for troubled male youth with severe behavior problems. Police say the escaped teen is a 15-year-old from the Lansing area who was first reported missing Saturday afternoon. The teen may have climbed the fence guarding the facility and jumped out. The escapee tried to steal a nearby pickup truck but wasn't successful.
