Yacht Once Owned by Humphrey Bogart Being Restored
NewsRadio 920 WHJJ and the Associated Press
PORTSMOUTH, R.I. (AP) — Workers at a Rhode Island boatyard have begun work to restore a 55-foot schooner once owned by actor Humphrey Bogart.
The yacht, affectionately known as "Bogie's Boat," is undergoing a major refit and restoration at Loughborough Marine Interests in Portsmouth.
The schooner, which Bogart named Santana, was built in 1935. The actor owned it from 1945 until his death in 1957, spending up to 45 weekends each year on board and frequently racing the yacht. Its current owners are from California.
Joseph Loughborough tells The Newport Daily News it will likely take 18 months and $1.5 million to restore the wooden boat, which has teak deck.
He says the new owners want it to be as close to its original condition as possible.

SEBI plans to curb potential round-tripping through FIIs and also increase transparency. If successfully implemented, the move will segregate the opportunistic short-term investors from the committed long-term ones
Market regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has asked all foreign institutional investors (FIIs) not to follow a protected cell company (PCC) or segregated portfolio company (SPC) structure.
A PCC or SPC is an entity with several cells within the same fund vehicle that may represent distinct investment objectives. A cell within the PCC or SPC has its own assets and liabilities as well as capital, dividends and accounts. This helps the fund manager to market a single fund which can have different investment plans for different investors.
"The FII has to declare that it is not a protected cell company (PCC) or segregated portfolio company (SPC) and doesn't have an equivalent structure," SEBI said in a circular. FIIs have also been directed to declare that they are not a multi-class share vehicle (MCV) by constitution and do not have an equivalent structure. FIIs have to declare that their investment contains only single-class shares instead of MCVs, the market regulator said.
PCCs or SPCs are commonly used in the formation of collective investment schemes as umbrella funds and for the formation of captive insurance companies. They are also sometimes used as asset-holding vehicles, characteristically where each portfolio holds a single ship or aircraft, and they can also potentially be used in capital market debt issuances.
"While we understand the regulators' concerns about round-tripping and money laundering by Indian residents, we believe that a blindfolded blanket ban on FIIs and genuine investors may not be the correct remedy. We believe that money laundering and round-tripping for tax evasion issues should be rather checked by stronger and robust exchange controls," said law firm Nishith Desai Associates, in a report.
Despite satisfying the broad-based fund criteria at the entity level, the fund vehicle has flexibility to pursue dedicated investment strategies for identified investors. This goes against the essence of a broad-based fund, as the investment does not represent the interest of all the investors, but of specific investors as per their investment strategy.
Though SEBI has provided almost six months for the sunset provisions, it would jeopardise the structures of many existing FIIs and sub-accounts which were structured as MCVs or have a PCC or SPC in their group structure, the law firm added.
Because of the relative ease of forming multiple offshore companies in most jurisdictions where SPCs are available for incorporation, and because it is uncertain how the concept of segregated portfolios and thus no consequential cross-contamination of liabilities would be treated in an onshore bankruptcy or by credit ratings agencies, many promoters still instead opt for the formation of multiple companies under a single holding company.
Similarly, the market regulator had expressed concerns for fund vehicles structured as MCVs, adding new classes of shares or sub-funds after seeking registration as a sub-account. SEBI said that FIIs declaring that they were not MCVs would need to ensure that they had only one category of investors, also referred to as single class of shares.
Typically, MCVs are used in two ways. The first option is to have a common portfolio that has at least 20 investors at the FII level. The second option is to have a segregated portfolio for each class of investors, where each class must have a minimum of 20 investors. SEBI has asked FIIs that were registered before 7th April to comply with the norms by September end.
"In today's global scenario, apart from the developing economies, India stands to compete with the developed Western markets also for foreign inflow of capital. Therefore, it is imperative that the Indian regulators ensure that genuine foreign investments are not hindered due to an adverse regulatory regime, which may lead to diversion of India-dedicated funds to other economies," added Nishith Desai Associates. However, unless it is clear how much of investment is due to round-tripping, it is impossible to say whether the new rules would be a hindrance. After all, a lot of genuine long-term investors don't use the PCC or SPC structure.
Any ruling that advocates trail commissions or a ban on ULIPs will be significantly negative for the sector, the brokerage has said
ICICI Securities Ltd, a unit of ICICI Bank Ltd, has said that it believes the 'status quo' in the ongoing conflict between the insurance and stock market regulators will be difficult to maintain in light of the finance minister's comment on the phasing out of the current 'front load' structure in the life insurance space.
"Such a structure, if implemented, will be significantly negative for the industry. The implementation would lead to sharp decline in sales and persistency in the short term, pressurise margins and have negative impact on valuations," ICICI Securities said in a research report.
On 10th April, market regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) banned 14 life insurance companies from raising funds through unit-linked insurance plans (ULIPs), without an approval from its side. Later on 14th April, SEBI came out with a second order that exempted the existing ULIP schemes of these 14 players from the ban. Yesterday, the market watchdog had moved the Supreme Court and some High Courts to guard against any ex-parte decision.
ICICI Securities said that valuations of life insurance entities will suffer significantly if either the products become 'no-load' or the SEBI stance on regulation of ULIPs is implemented, and it awaits further clarity on the issue and keep its estimates unchanged.
Given the already high capital infusions, dependence of about 30 lakh agents on commissions and high proportion of ULIPs in sales, the brokerage said that it believes it will be difficult to implement a 'no-load' structure. Any ruling that advocates trail commissions or a ban on ULIPs will be significantly negative for the sector, ICICI Securities added.
The brokerage said that within its insurance coverage universe, Aditya Birla Nuvo, Reliance Capital and Bajaj FinServ will be most impacted as the life insurance business accounts for a significant proportion of their valuations while the impact on SBI and HDFC will be limited as insurance contributes to a smaller proportion of their valuations.
Various banks and insurance companies are showing growing interest in the new revised reverse mortgage product, based on the bank- insurance company tie-up model
Banks like Punjab National Bank, Corporation Bank, Union Bank and Bank of India and insurance companies like the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) and Reliance Life Insurance—among other companies—are showing interest in the reverse mortgage segment. This in turn would prove to be a boon for senior citizens.
Recently, the National Housing Bank (NHB) had announced a revised reverse mortgage scheme based on a bank-insurance company tie-up model. This new revised scheme would be beneficial both for senior citizens and the bank.
According to well-placed sources, most public sector banks have shown interest in this new model. However, not much has been heard from private sector banks on this segment.
"Banks are looking at tie-ups with Star Union Dai-ichi and also at other options of tie-ups with other insurance companies," said a source, on the basis of anonymity. It is also likely that these banks may come up with different variants of the product based on the 'bank-insurance' company concept.
The first reverse mortgage product was introduced in May 2007, followed by a new scheme from NHB in 2009. The first product on the basis of the new revised model is being offered by Central Bank of India along with Star Union Dai-ichi.
The new model, (see here), not only offers better returns compared to the first version introduced in 2007, it also makes the product viable for banks. Earlier, banks had to bear 100% of the risks involved in the product. But with the new product, the risks are divided between the insurance company and the bank. Typically, the bank bears an 'over-valued property' risk, while the insurance company would bear the longevity risk (if the senior citizen lives exceptionally longer). This could be one of the main reasons for the growing interest from banks in the revised model.
Given the fact that the revised model offers lifetime annuity payments, growing competition in this segment will help senior citizens enjoy the best value for their homes.

Types of Breast Cancer
Breast cancer can begin in different areas of the breast – the ducts, the lobules, or in some cases, the tissue in between. Breast cancer is not a single disease. There are many types of breast cancer, and they may have vastly different implications. Breast cancers range from localized cancers such as ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) to invasive cancers that can rapidly spread (metastasize). In the middle of the spectrum are breast cancers, such as colloid carcinomas and papillary carcinomas, which have a much more favorable outlook (prognosis) than the other more typically invasive breast cancers. Sometimes, noninvasive DCIS is found around invasive breast cancers.
LSF produces programs and seminars for individuals facing cancer, either personally or as a caregiver. These programs will offer, among other things, up-to-date and reliable information, peer support, and practical coping skills.

The Ferrari 512 BB (also known as the 'BB512') was launched in 1976 as more of an update to the Berlinetta Boxer, rather than a new model. Its name didn't follow Ferrari convention, instead borrowing the format used for the Dino and GT4 at the time, referring to '5 litre, 12 cylinder', rather than the individual cylinder capacity. The torquier 5.0-litre Ferrari flat-12 made the 'new' Boxer more responsive and flexible. A revised gearbox was a significant improvement over the 365 BB, and many of the latter were subsequently upgraded in period to use this transmission. Ferrari also reduced the pressure in the shift mechanism itself, making gear changes in the 512 BB slicker than in its predecessor. On the outside, the exterior styling changes were minimal but noticeable. Wider rear arches accommodated the fatter nine-inch tyres, there was a more pronounced kink in the join between cabin and rear clip, and the Ferrari's nose was revised with a shallow spoiler to reduce lift at very high speeds. Another telling feature of the 512 BB is the pair of NACA ducts in the lower panels ahead of the rear wheels - these were added to funnel air to the brakes. At the rear, the three tail lights o

Actor critical: Sean Malone Critical
Published: July 22, 2015
Actor critical: Sean Malone Critical, Sean Malone, who appeared in the movies Gone, Baby, Gone and The Fighter, is reported to be in critical condition in a Boston hospital after a near drowning Monday.
The 54-year-old actor was pulled from the water by an off duty firefighter and three local teens after being found floating face down in the ocean off the M Street Beach.
The South Boston native was unconscious when rescuers reached him having reportedly got into trouble after swimming a long way out, according to local TV news station WCVB.
Malone, who most recently worked with John Travolta on the 2014 film The Forger, is the brother of Deputy Fire Chief Scott Malone of the Boston Fire Department.
The Boston Globe reports that a firefighter Chris Flaherty was working out with other firefighters on the beach when he became concerned at how far out Malone was swimming.
He went out on a paddleboard towards him but couldn't find him.

He flagged down three teens who were in a speedboat and together they searched until they came across Malone's lifeless body.
The young men named locally as Joey Binda and Elliott Chauvet, both 17, and John Feeney, 18, pulled him onto the boat and helped Flaherty perform CPR as they returned to shore.
Malone was transported to Boston Medical Center where he was listed as 'critical' Monday night.
A spokesperson foe the Boston FD, Steve MacDonald, said Malone's family is grateful for all those who helped the actor.
'They're praying for the best,' he told the Globe.

While it may not be difficult to find replacement parts for BMW vehicles, these days the necessity for nothing but the highest quality are required to repair your car or truck. Your BMW dealership isn't the only place to find genuine or original equipment quality parts to repair your 3.0CSi. You bought your 3.0CSi because its a reputation for performance and European styling agreed with your nature; so why would you settle for second rate when it comes to superior quality auto parts? The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest compared to all the other vehicles in today's marketplace.
Keeping your BMW 3.0CSi engine cool during regular operation is the job of several components, and like a house of cards when one goes down they all fail. A very important one is the cooling fan assembly, and it will kick on after a temperature sensor detects the coolant is getting too hot. Most of the time your BMW 3.0CSi cooling fan assembly turns on suddenly is when your car or truck is not traveling fast; this is because there is not enough airflow into the radiator to lower the coolant temperature. As the cooling fan pulls air through the metal fins of your radiator, the coolant inside the core loses its heat and then exits out the lower radiator hose and goes back to the engine.
Get your 3.0CSi back on the road with the best repair parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. Trust in the value of the parts you get from carpartsdiscount.com and realize incredible savings on all your upcoming repairs. When your BMW needs the best replacement Cooling Fan Assembly, there's no need to waste time looking anywhere other than the authority, Car Parts Discount. If your car or truck was built in 1974, 1973, 1972, 1971, then you will find the correct BMW 3.0CSi Cooling Fan Assembly parts right here.

Former golf champion Tony Jacklin has become the first celebrity to leave Strictly Come Dancing 2013.
Jacklin faced fashion designer Julien Macdonald in the "dance-off", but the golfer's Charleston was judged below par.
Strictly judges Craig Revel Horwood, Darcey Bussell and Bruno Tonioli chose to save Macdonald and his partner Janette Manrara, who danced the Tango to Lady Gaga's latest single "Applause".
Jacklin, 69, came under fire for his Charleston routine, in which he used a golf club as a prop and wore a pink and green diamond-patterned golfing top.
Tonioli told the golfer: "The most exciting thing in that was the jumper," while Revel Horwood added: "The Charleston should be lively, energetic, frenetic. Unfortunately yours was limp, lame and lacklustre."
Head judge Len Goodman said: "Tony you've been one of my golfing heroes all of my life, sadly I have to say I would have gone with Julien and Janette, but you're still one of my heroes."
Speaking backstage, Jacklin said: "I'm a tough pupil. I'm going to stick to golf I think. I have enjoyed myself, it's been a glimpse into another world which I have thoroughly enjoyed. I had no concept of the work that goes into this, and the work ethic that these girls have. I did my best."
The golfer, who is described as the most successful British golf player of his generation, confessed to feeling "petrified" on Saturday before going on stage to perform the Charleston.
He said: "It was a very, very intimidating situation going on stage in front of 10 million people - I felt like running away half an hour before going on last night but there was security all over the place."
Strictly Come Dancing continues next Saturday with the first of this year's themed shows.

US STOCKS-Futures slump as China data indicates faltering growth
* Futures down: Dow 311 pts, S&P 39 pts, Nasdaq 90 pts
By Tanya Agrawal
Sept 1 (Reuters) - U.S. stock index futures fell sharply on Tuesday after weak data from China heightened fears of a slowdown in the world's second-largest economy.
* Data showed that China's manufacturing sector shrank at its fastest pace in three years and its services sector also showed signs of cooling.
* Wall Street ended lower on Monday and wrapped up its worst month since 2012 after comments from a senior Federal Reserve official appeared to indicate a potential U.S. interest hike in September.
* Adding to the nervous sentiment, the head of the International Monetary Fund, Christine Lagarde, said that global economic growth was now likely to be weaker than had been expected just a few months ago.
* Oil prices resumed their downward spiral after weak data from China, falling more than $2 in early trade.
* European indexes also fell about 2 percent, extending losses from the previous week.
* Data expected to be released today includes the Institute for Supply Management's index of national factory activity at 10 a.m. ET (1400 GMT), which is expected to fall to 52.6 in August from 52.7 in July. Continuación...

WOMEN OF HISTORY | PRINCESS PINGYANG (598 - 623) (Du Juan)
Princess Píngyáng was a daughter of General Li Yuan, who would be Emperor Gaozu of Tang, the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty. She helped him to seize power and eventually take over the throne by organizing an army ('Army of the Lady', commanded by herself) in his campaign to capture the Sui capital Chang'an.
She used the fact that she was a woman, and therefore non-threatening, to work for her father's rebellion against the Emperor. She distributed her wealth among several hundred men, receiving their loyalty, and then - with the help of her servant - she persuaded rebel leaders to join the cause. Attacking and capturing cities, Píngyáng gathered 70,000 men for her army. The peasants saw her and her men as a force for liberation and fed them when they passed through.
When she died many years later her father ordered a grand military funeral for her, complete with the presence of a band - something which was disapproved of as it was not seen as fitting for a woman. To this Emperor Gaozu responded, 'The band would be playing military music. The Princess personally beat the drums and rose in righteous rebellion to help me establish the dynasty. How can she be treated as an ordinary woman?'

The combination of Sven Boenicke's W8se+ speaker and his new E2 Integrated amplifier, are a purpose made combination which excels in the way only a design from the ground up can accomplish. This integrated amplifier with built in DAC has all of the wants ew desired, during its 3 years on the bench. Output transformers by Serge Schmidlin of Audio Consulting of Switzerland, and R2R dac that doesn't rely on some here to day gone tomorrow chip, and a honking power supply. All while being contained in this gorgeous wood and metal enclosure. A top flight phono stage is also possible in the unit. The Swiss crafted Thales CCC-T Turntable, whose drive is battery induced, misses not t nuance. Intoxicating, easy to employ, beautiful, it brings the majesty of music to even your smallest venue. Be weary, if you're like me, you may stay in bed with your tea and your remote, not for a moment thinking that the world is going on elsewhere. This is a reference offering, despite costing far less than the 6 figure performance it portrays. The diminutive W8s (they're less than 31 inches tall) can reproduce 28 hz...it's really a some type of sorcery. For those of you not familiar with Hz, it mean well below the lowest bass note...think Berlioz at full dynamic capability and you'll see these speakers can reproduce anything.
You know you should have married her. You understood each other. You thrilled at the sight, but youth and inexperience prevailed and it was not to be. To have todays brian in yesterdays body. Well, get over it.
You needn't relive your inequities. DC-10 Audio and their Berlin Reference has created all of the nuance and brilliance of unrequited love in something tangible, accessible, and attractive. Nuance and Brilliance. That's the point.
Add a Klimo table for the best in magnetic bearings and Italian perfection.
Peaceful. Organic. Whole. Exacting. These words, rarely bedfellows, describe Kroma Audio Speakers. Combining Krion and tone wood, their duality is the duality of live music, of life. With tone wood crafted by the same Andalucian luthiers that have for centuries made the finest classical guitars, they embody the interaction of flesh, blood, and inspiration. Matched with the genius of Grandinote electronics they are magic. A tubed circuit with endless damping is exactly what the Kroma Julietas desire. The Wave Kinetics table at this point is sheer indulgence, but as Wilde informed us, 'the only cure for temptation is to yield to it.' And yield we must...
Ultra Simple, Ultra High End, Ultra Prana. The Boenicke W11 with the new Boenicke E2 integrated. The W11 requires real voltage to propel it to greatness. The E2 has just that. Strapped with or without reference level dacs and or a top phono stage, the E2 is something special indeed. Relax, it's Dwell Time. This system was designed for ipad simplicity on the highest level. Liquid flow from Audio Magic cables and the dream is a reality.
La Divina. That which she represents; complete lack of compromise, exquisite technique, elegance, a direct connection to the heart of all that hear her...these are tenants of this system. There is none finer amidst these pages, only larger or smaller. For most regular sized rooms, it represents the ultimate expression of what's available.
The only thing greater than the Absolute Excellence of the components in this system, is the magical synergy they share. This is our reference offering for rooms that range from 250 to 600 square feet.
The Trafomatic Ultra Reference LIne by Sasa Cokic are hand made masterpieces. They communicate with Voxativ's Ampeggio Field Coil Speakers in a way that is preternatural. The digital artistry of Rockna Audio shows what dreams may come from an R2R plunge (from which no dac chip has returned). And for the bit of whimsy and genius that can only be designed in Italy, the Klimo Tafelrunde brings functional art to the party in a way that honors the phrase.
The Paralyse Racks from Carsten Tragsdorf are like no other. Elegant, imminently functional, these racks can handle 125kg per shelf, are the best isolation for equipment we've found, and are design marvels. Carsten has worked for many years as a vibration expert in some of Germany's finest automobile houses.
The Goebel Epoque Fine. Crayon's ultimate monoblocks and the Rockna Limited Edition Dac and Server. Goebel's Cables. Hamberg Steinway optional. Life can be this simple and brilliant. The true holographs of entertainment that grace your floor will need not a whit of imagination on your part to take wing. Just relax, pour yourself something inspirational and relax. You deserve it. There is no better illusion that the one created herein. Feel free to perch them on a Paralyse Keo Rack, where the dac, will be perfectly accommodated.
For lack of a better analogy, this system is like what we imagine making love to Sophia Loren would have been like. Lovely curves, light on her feet, delicate like a whisper, with the ability to shake you to your core in an instant. From a whisper to a roar, and you simply must come back again and again
For our living room we wanted a speaker with sculpted beauty, that is phenomenally involving, with no real dynamic limitations, that also possesses the soul of the music. Enter The Tune Audio Anima, which possesses all of those qualities using an advanced horn technology, with a down firing massive bass horn doubling as a stand for the mid-range and tweeter horns. This is the most natural and organic horn we've found that doesn't require re-building a space to suit the purpose.
With a no holds barred tube amplification from Trafomatic, and the exceptional CAD 1543 DAC and CAD NET, your living space can elevate to a concert hall with of the dimensionality and space of the original event
Is that 30 year old Balvenie in your glass. A drip of water to open it up. A comfortable chair, and what was that...silence. You have some time to let go and this is the perfect moment. Hell, it may even warrant a cigar.
There are those times in life, when you feel something is so good that it must be bad. That's how we feel about the CMA MonoBlocks and the Boenicke W13. Of course without a source, they're just two models sitting in your den. To make them dance, just add something from MSB's Select Dac Line, the finest... the result is pure magic. Carsten Tragsdorf's petit yet perfect Proto rack is the icing on the cake (and half of the performance!!)
David Counsell is part music lover, part engineer, part architect, and part mystic. His Grand Voix Retro is a reference grade map of the soul. It's a work of art as much as a machine, a very powerful live music creating machine. For a medium to large room, these speakers are tremendous. The sound is beguiling and entirely immersive. Match them with the equally beguiling pieces from Amadeo Schembri and Viva Audio and something very special happens; time travel. For a source, the Transfiguration Proteus Cartridge on the Klimo Tafelfrunde Table is sublime. Just add a Rockna DAC and you may never have to leave this room again.
We can use a Paralyse Rack to great advantage here, or if you prefer, we can customize something to keep the Retro feel alive-we can even build using your existing furniture and our own platforms.
This system is super model sex...you could set up some instruments with pseudo musicians behind them and fool most any guest. It's that real.
Better than sex and sightly less expensive than a super model, this is the penultimate space machine.
You, my friend, have hit the mother lode.
You may have noticed a preponderance of Crayon Audio, (the brainchild of Roland Krammer) throughout these pages. When you find a circuit genius, who also has an incredible ear for music, it is your duty to share this man's creations. His CMA-2 MonoBlocks with their accompanying Reference Phono Stage, into the Alkemia Vero Omni Directional Manger speakers, can produce one of the most 3 dimensional renderings imaginable. The MSB Theater Master and the Klimo Tafelrunde Table with 4 cartridges lend a tremendous set of options for your listening pleasure. There is nothing like the Goebel Cable in our experience. With this entourage of equipment it really gives us the final degrees we'd hoped for.
Reference sound for any sized room. These amazing transducers require as little as an outlet, to as much as one source to create reference level, heartbreakingly beautiful music. These solutions are not only quite moving and of incredible quality, they also offer no clutter and ease of use, heretofore not possible due to technological constraints.
During our lengthy search into visual appeal and high performance, we encountered Leeds Look & Listen. Gary Leeds, an industry veteran with years of accomplished music making at vaunted levels, has founded with his wife Debra (established designer on both coasts) and Pat McGinty (master speaker conceptualiser and craftsman) a line of superb sounding systems that are at once aurally moving and visually elegant. All types of customizations are possible to match your decor or mood. One box and an Ipad will get you there. This is the magic of today. Stay tuned for a new joint product that we feel will not only astound, but cross new boundaries of design and performance.
We are fortunate to represent a number of gorgeous active speakers manufacturers. Please consult the gallery and contact us for a consultation on what will best work for your space and desires.
This system will bring back the tinkling of glasses, the newly minted flatted fifths, the A to the bar, and even the illusion of smoke. A young girl named Carmen is playing intermission piano. Diz is talking to a lovely...he didn't have to charm her, but the moment was there, and it's just his way. Tommy and Max are having a taste of brown liquor and talking with the same rhythmic oneness with which they play. Monk is writing in a corner. People are talking to him-he's alone but hears everything they say. Like Bird he lives in two dimensions. The winged God of Bebop is somewhere out back. You can hear his laugh on occasion, lifting above the background serenade as was his birthright...Gabriel traded in his trumpet on a King Super 20 with a silver bell. Bird Lives, and he's on in 5.
This is Viva's Credenza. When we enter the top level of Viva's efforts, 'customization' is the first word, but all other descriptors fail. We don't have words for it yet, and when you hear the Credenza, you'll know we don't need them. What you will need is a source, and few are as soulful as the ACS Minima. We're going to spin a few sides and get back to you.
Andy's, or Carnegie Hall as outsiders call it. Large is just large. Almost never is large accompanied by finesse. Viva has given us everything we dreamt of and a bit more. Such is the nature of one man's obsession.
When enough isn't enough, and you want to portray all you've heard or imagined (and some things you have not), this is our answer. Scale is not an issue. From the grunt of Hendrix to the delicate musings of Blossom Dearie, to the largest scale Mahler your could imagine. Well, scale, convincing scale at any volume while maintaining delicacy and nuance has a new leader. David Counsell has dreamt a new massive horn system into reality. And she is nothing short of lovely and without equal.
All other options for this system will come via client counsel. It is a bespoke solution depending upon wants and desires.
Our primary value, is our tireless attention to properly match the artisan pieces we scour the earth to find. Indeed, that is how much of our collection came to be...we needed a sound that would justify what was already of the highest order, already in place. Perhaps this is why most of our manufacturers possess offerings that began with a dream, then a sketch, then a realization. Such tailoring is only possible if preceded by decades of knowledge, trial and error.

Grim Dawn - Misadventures #19
Grim misadventures #19 is online and talks about focus items.
We have a special treat for you today from our artists, but first we would like to introduce you to our Focus items.
Focus items are off-hand only implements intended for the sorcerers at heart. Through them, you will channel forbidden powers capable of tearing apart the toughest foe. Unlike shields though, they provide no defenses.
Focus items come in two styles, the tomes for a more refined spellcaster and the savage implements of forbidden arts. Both types of Focus items provide a set amount of cooldown reduction, but where they differ is in their base energy regeneration. Whereas tomes provide flat bonuses, savage Foci give a percent bonus. Which one benefits you more will depend entirely on you gear preferences. One thing is certain though: the most powerful spellcasters will want a combination of Weapon and Focus for the largest bonuses to their preferred damage types.

According to a report by The New Indian Express (read here), though there has been no confirmation, 39 of the 40 kidnapped constructions workers may have been murdered.
The report quotes a worker of the company where the Indians were employed, who said that after the fight broke in Iraq by the ISIL, the company returned the passports of Indian and Bangladeshi employees and asked them to leave on their own.
The workers however protested and demanded three months salary and flight ticket and were then taken to a hospital in Mosul where they were kept for two days, following which the Bangladeshis were seperated from the Indians.The hospital was a safe area where they were kept before they moved out.
MEA: Can't confirm killings unless from a credible source on ground
When the Bangladeshi group reached a camp in Ebril, they came across an Indian national called Harkit, who said that he was the lone survivor and all others had been killed.
The MEA on the other hand has not confirmed the death of 39 Indian workers. Instead the ministry said that it could only go forward with credible information given by International aid workers.
On Thursday Punjab CM even said that he was willing to pay any ransom to get back workers who belonged to the state. Meanwhile families of the Indians kidnapped in Mosul will meet MEA officials on Thursday.

The Guardian's top in-house lawyer recently concluded, rather sadly, that Sir Brian Leveson's inquiry had proved "disastrous", the "worst of all worlds". It's difficult to argue with her now. And if only everyone involved would stop shouting for a moment, you can swiftly understand why. No wonder the Lord Justice prefers to stay schtum when he meets MPs.
Is a "royal charter" a good solution for press self-regulation? Not if a closed sub-committee of ministers can turn down one draft in favour of another basically agreed in non-plenary session with Hacked Off over chocolate biscuits and a residual pong of pizza. Dusty medieval rituals don't do freedom's business here. Nor is there much democratic heft to an inquiry led by a judge who won't answer MPs' questions (because he reckons that's not his job) and whose only interesting session slip is to confirm that the independent outside assessors on his team were chosen not by him, but by HMG.
Where was any necessary insight into tabloid ways when Leveson, pictured, needed it? Missing: just as, today, press experience is ceremonially excluded from charter recognition and appointments in the mildly adjusted take-it-or-leave-it choice newspapers are instructed to make. You can, in short, see why most press people sense a fix, a box that can be used time and again to close them down. So expect this worst of all worlds to grow bleaker as the vast majority of Britain's magazines and papers try to set up their own, non-privy regulator come what may. This is another uncertain stride along a road to somewhere – or nowhere.
David Cameron's royal charter wheeze didn't seem some sinister plot when first floated; rather a way of easing fears of "statutory underpinning" in the first Leveson model. The prime minister was trying to be helpful. It isn't his fault that the wheeze, once tested, looks unfit for purpose. And the press, too, has had its stumbles along this path. Too much concentration on lobbying Tories and forgetting about the rest of Westminster. Too many exaggerated claims and headline blunders. Probably too little willingness to let go of the strings that could set a new regulator free of its paymasters.
But we are where we are. The question is what, if anything, can be made to happen next. With an independent press standards organisation that – under relentless parliamentary attack, undermined by Ralph-Miliband-type own goals – can't persuade Joe Public it's an effective regulator? A Westminster-endorsed charter the press won't sign up to (because, remember, this isn't a law that must be obeyed)? An incoming Labour or Lib-Dem alliance 20 months hence which insists on making its own legislative writ run? There is no good answer on offer – unless that is, press and politicians can be cajoled into getting together and working something out: further progress is not impossible, if Hacked Off would only back off for a moment. (Playing the Tea Party in this debate isn't helping anybody.)
Edging towards a useful settlement, though, involves agreement on something deeper than committee structures and forms of words. What on earth do both sides mean by "independent" regulation? The privy council charter group (Tories or Lib Dems all) don't want even one press person on the appointments team, or the recognition body that will vet the new regulator. It's weird to observe that neither Sir David Bell of the FT nor George Jones, ex-Telegraph lobby king, both of them trusted assessors for Leveson, would be allowed to have any role in building the body they helped recommend.
MPs aren't independent, apparently – like editors. But retired journalists and members of the Lords are out of the reckoning too. The question is: who's in? And Leveson, for once, doesn't really need to supply an answer. He's a lawyer and recently promoted judge. His lead counsel on the inquiry has just zipped up to the bench, as well. The press's own regulator is devised by Lord (David) Hunt, a benign contracts lawyer. Hunt's appointments team is led by Lord Phillips of Worth Matravers, lately our leading supreme court justice. The arbitration provisions in Leveson's view are there to be operated, explicitly, by retired barristers and judges. Vexatious attempts to use this new facility, it's argued, could be weeded out fast by a special squad of advisory lawyers. And so on. From start to finish, long audit trails a-winding, Levesonian "independence" is haplessly defined as "call for a learned friend".
It's a problem to be confronted now. If a free and independent press can't abide the thought of being subject to law, why on earth is the "independence" it is supposed to find here defined by legal worthies? Is that what freedom means?
The year since Leveson reported has seen a fresh definition of "press irresponsibility" take hold. We were talking, in cases often 10 years old or more, about hackings and errant snappers. Now the subject – typically dividing a riven, raucous Fleet Street, as well as everybody else – is back to national security and the privacy rampant technology takes away: an area where Leveson famously has no views. Is it supposed that a regulator constructed by and pavilioned in lawyers will defend our freedoms when GCHQ push comes to shove? How will audit trails and the rest work in Orwell-land?
The root problem in this disastrous debate has been the failure to define whether "independence" is more than a bromide word. If we're stuck with properly independent self-regulation, then of course we don't want a board stuffed with industry servants going through the motions. But, equally, we don't want benefit night at the Inns of Court either. Nobody, in the interminable war of words, has stopped to talk about real people and see whether they're deemed independent enough to serve. Try Michael Grade, Stewart Purvis (ex-ITN), Lord (Chris) Smith, Bill Hagerty (former editor of the People) and even Sir David Bell for starters. If they're not acceptable, then who on Earth are we talking about in the abstract – and how, in the muted name of Leveson, do we expect to achieve the second-best of all worlds?

Sam Swig & Eric Bosick – Oakland, CA
I first met Sam at Tropicalia in Furs during one of those impromptu parties that would just start out of nowhere. We smiled at each other and said hi a couple of times throughout the night but said nothing—we were both pretty wasted...

When a window opens in Questlove's schedule—even if it's very last-minute and on July 4—you take it.

London, Oct. 30 (ANI): Only one in three Brits want former Prime Minister Tony Blair to be appointed as the president of the European Union, a new poll has found.
According to a Daily Telegraph/YouGov poll, just 31 per cent of voters want to see him become president of the European Council, while another 31 per cent are opposed.
Thirty-eight per cent remained undecided.
The lack of overwhelming domestic support for Blair is set to fuel European doubts about him.
At a EU summit in Brussels, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, who is now publicly campaigning for his predecessor, accepted that Blair may lose out.
"It may not happen," Brown was quoted, as saying.
Brown's remark came in the wake of more countries openly opposing Blair's candidacy.
The group of countries, which includes Ireland, Finland, Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg and Sweden, used a dinner discussion over "rules of procedure".
Ireland abandoned its previous support for Blair after John Bruton, a former Irish prime minister, put himself forward for the job.
The socialists, who include Prime Minister Jose Zapatero of Spain, put Miliband's name on a list of names for that post, although he insisted he is not interested.
Blair was first backed for the presidency by Nicolas Sarkozy, France's right-wing president.
However, senior EU sources said that both Sarkozy and Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor, have now cooled on Blair's candidacy. (ANI)

Property development due persistance involves many steps. When done appropriately the danger included with land development are considerably lowered as well as the odds commercial are raised substantially.
The initial action before signing your agreement with the Seller is to plainly negotiate all terms that you require. If you and the seller recognize all that is expected of both events, specifically during the due diligence period, you will certainly prevent prospective problems in the future. This is where your lawyer enters location.
I very suggest employing a seasoned property attorney that is familiar with negotiating land acquisition contracts as well as collaborating with designers. Acquiring land is dangerous as well as it is well to decrease your danger from the start. Generally land acquisition agreements go via countless negotiations as well as modifications. It is a lot more tough after the agreement has actually been authorized to obtain the celebrations to accept contract amendments, although contract changes and also addendum are ready quite regularly based upon examination file searchings for and also various other occasions that happen throughout the due persistance period.
Throughout the due diligence duration, the seller needs to supply you with particular past or existing files that he has in his ownership such as geology, soils records, ecological reports. It is most ideal to request these in your contract so that all celebrations are clear concerning exactly what they require to deliver per other. Relying on exactly how old the records are you could then make a decision if you wish to rely on the vendor's reports or obtain new ones. Also, be certain your agreement states the vendor will certainly aid with any kind of allowing or regulative actions that might be called for throughout due diligence.
The popular method of carrying out due diligence is to work with specialists to aid you. Lawyers, land surveyors, technicians, ecological specialists, zoning and also land use professionals that will assess records, do examinations and make inquiries on your behalf throughout the due persistance inspection periods bargained between you and also the seller in your acquisition contract.
It is much more challenging after the agreement has been signed to obtain the events to agree to agreement modifications, although agreement amendments and addendum are ready fairly frequently based after examination report searchings for as well as other events that occur during the due persistance duration.
During the due diligence period, the seller needs to supply you with certain previous or existing files that he has in his ownership such as geology, dirts records, ecological files. Lawyers, land surveyors, technicians, environmental specialists, zoning and also land use professionals who will certainly evaluate files, do inspections and also make queries on your part during the due persistance examination periods negotiated between you as well as the vendor in your purchase agreement.

The yen dropped against the dollar
Investors' confidence remains unstable and that was reflected on major currencies moves against the dollar. The federal currency is advancing against all currencies, while the euro is weakening due to Greece debt problems, and the yen lost its advantage as a refugee after the dollar yen pair broke major levels giving a selling chance for the yen and that was why it fell to a eight weeks low against the euro.
The euro dropped the Asian session recording a low of 1.3384, before it inclined again to the 1.3430 levels. Today the euro zone's unemployment will be released and it is expected to show unemployment rose to 10.0% in February, and if the actual reading came meeting market forecasts, the euro will continue falling targeting the 1.3360 levels.
Regarding the pound dollar pair, it reaching the 1.5060 levels, as the pair lost momentum and volumes declined in the Asian session, which helped the pair to stabilize around these levels. The royal currency recorded a high of 1.5099 and a low of 1.5041, and the pair will be consolidating over the short and medium terms, but downside pressures remain founded on the medium term.
The dollar yen pair breached a downside trend on the weekly charts, and that was why the pair inclined. The yen dropped against major currencies recording eight weeks low against the euro at 125.45. The dollar yen pair is trading around 93.18 which a resistance level, but if the pair breached this area; it will jump to the 94.00 levels. However, the pair recorded a high of 93.59 and a low of 92.79.

Master is a wonder in girls eyes, He is strong and rough, yet gentle and soft. His hands punish slave when she has done of wrong things, His hands hold her when she is crying. her soft skin against the rough strong palms of His touch is something special to her that only her mind could make a gift. The rough bite of Master's firm hand on any part of her body each one meaning more to her then the next.
Master's hand that grips her flesh, fingers curled at slaves neck. His hands that calm her body from her subspace and when she letting the rain of tears fall from the green storm clouds. Master's hands also grind the leather that bites her skin, that welts her flesh. the tender touch of when she ill and the strong fingers that lead her with the leash of her hair.
Master is strong, in so many ways slave will never know. It is in this strength that slave finds herself needing Him, craving Him, and her own strength to serve His every need, no matter the consequence. Allowing her heart and soul to becoming something only Master can touch, only He understands. It is the broken and batter piece of her soul, like a shattered mirror, it holds cracks and missing pieces. her hope is strong, her trust is shaken, but for Him it is nothing but abundant. she would rather beg to take the blame before He ever blamed himself,loving more the Master He is and praying that her naked neck will one day taste the leather of His collar.

Robert William Billings
Robert William Billings (1813 – 14 November 1874) was an English painter and architect. Trained as a topographical draughtsman, he wrote and illustrated many books early in his career, before concentrating on his architectural practice.
Billings was born in London in 1813.[1] At the age of thirteen he was apprenticed to the topographical draughtsman John Britton for seven years. In 1837 he illustrated George Godwin's History and Description of St. Paul's Cathedral, and two years later, with Frederick Mackenzie, the two volumes of Godwin's Churches of London. He assisted Sir Jeffry Wyattville on drawings of Windsor Castle, and prepared many views of the ruins of the old Houses of Parliament after the fire.[1]
The works he undertook on his own account included Illustrations of the Temple Church, London, (1838); Gothic Panelling in Brancepeth Church, Durham (1841) and Kettering Church, Northamptonshire (1843). He produced important works on Carlisle Cathedral and Durham Cathedral, published in 1840 and 1843, and Illustrations of the Architectural Antiquities of the County of Durham (1846). The work for which he became best known was The Baronial and Ecclesiastical Antiquities of Scotland, published in four volumes between 1845 and 1862, which contained 240 illustrations, with explanatory text.[1]
His other published works were An Attempt to define the Geometric Proportions of Gothic Architecture, as illustrated by the Cathedrals of Carlisle and Worcester (1840) Illustrations of Geometric Tracery, from the panelling belonging to Carlisle Cathedral 1842 ; The Infinity of Geometric Design exemplified (1849) and The Power of Form applied to Geometric Tracery (1851).
The Attempt to Define the Geometric Proportions of Gothic Architecture has been the subject of scholarly interpretation.[2] A reviewer in the Art Journal explained that Billings had deduced that the architect of Carlisle Cathedral:
had been guided by the repetition of a circle whose diameter was the extreme width of the building; that the distribution and even the substance of the columns were settled by some subdivision of the same circle; and lastly, that a circle regulated by the width of the compartments thus formed, was the basis upon which the heights of the various portions of the building were framed.[3]
Eventually he gave up authorship, and devoted himself entirely to his architectural practice. He was employed on the restoration of the chapel of Edinburgh Castle (a government commission); the Douglas Room in Stirling Castle; Gosford House, Haddingtonshire, for the Earl of Wemyss; the restoration of Hanbury Hall, Worcestershire; Crosby-on-Eden Church, Cumberland and Kemble House, Wiltshire.[1] In 1865 Billings erected an unusual memorial to fellow architect Peter Nicholson (1765–1844) in Carlisle cemetery, in the form of a pair of interpenetrating obelisks.[4]
From 1865 Billings lived at Putney, where he purchased the Moulinère, a house once occupied by the Duchess of Marlborough. He died there 14 November 1874.[1]

WTAM-LD channel 30 is a low-power television station in Tampa, Florida. It provides over-the-air service to the Tampa - St. Petersburg area on digital channel 30 from its transmitter in Riverview. WTAM-LD is an affiliate of Spanish Broadcasting System's Mega TV network. The license and facilities are owned by SIMA Communications of Los Angeles, California and its branded as Mega TV Forida Central.
The station signed on in August 2005 as TV Informa 30, affiliated with the Mexican Multimedios network, but closed down in February 2006, after failing to find any cable system that would offer the channel in their line-up.[1] Being a low-powered station with no connections with any local full-powered outlets, WTAM was exempt from the Federal Must-carry rules that full-powered stations enjoyed, meaning that cable and satellite companies weren't obligated to offer the channel. Apparently not having the funds or the patience, Lotus opted to shut down WTAM, instead of keeping the station on the air as a terrestrial-only offering.
As of November 2006, WTAM has returned to the air under Rios as a family-oriented channel, TV Visión, still affiliated with Multimedios and also including programming from La Familia Network, brokered by Lotus to TV Vision Network, LLC, a broadcaster founded and owned by Francisco Rios, a founder of the Brandon Christian group, CPR Ministries.[2] WTAM also carried some bilingual, locally produced programs, such as Project 1805 (a weekly music video countdown), El Mundo de Luisitin (a children's program) and Total Action (featuring local sports).[3] It was unknown how long TV Visión's contract with Lotus lasted.
In June 2010, the station began broadcasting a digital signal on channel 28, with virtual channels 30.1-30.4. Subchannels featured included My Family TV on 30.1,[4] and Legacy TV.[5]
In April 2013, WTAM-LD officially launched CNN Latino Tampa, under the operations of SIMA Communications, LLC by its new owner TMA-TIG.[citation needed] However, in February 2014, it was announced that CNN Latino would cease operations by the end of that month, forcing its affiliates, including WTAM-LD, to find alternate programming to fill their slots.[6]
