Why is She famous
It's easy to rationalize Paris Hilton's success as little more than a by-product of an iconic last name and an an inherited fortune. But underneath all the tawdry late nights, the boozy posturing and the blue-eyed boyfriends lies a shrewd businesswoman who has managed to transform her name and persona into a money-making machine. In just a few short years, Paris Hilton has graced screens both big and small, released an album and hit single, been the face of luxury brands and tabloids alike, and captivated a public hungry for celebrity and scandal. In an industry where over-exposure has replaced drug addiction as the new career killer, Paris has walked a fine line on her way to an eternal relevance that eludes even the most talented public figures. It really is amazing what some night vision and a little oral sex can do for a career.
Paris Hilton Quote
" People think I'm stupid. But I'm smarter than most people."
84 Sex Appeal
Calling Paris Hilton "gross" is such a popular activity it might as well be an Olympic sport. The gold medal would go to all the jealous girlfriends who wish their skin were that tanned, their stomachs that flat, their breasts that perky, and their boyfriends that fit. Silver would go to all the boys who claim that she's too fake, too ditzy and too loose for their high standards and steadfast morals. Bronze would go to all us realists who would clear our bank accounts, sell an organ and disown our family for just one night in Paris. Of course we'd get the medal just for showing up.
67 Success
Paris Hilton is a business woman for the blog generation, and her yoga pants-and-bikini top combo is the new pantsuit. Or something like that. Regardless of what we say about Paris or how many clever(?) insults we hurl her way, she's still the spoiled club girl who built a media empire founded on a sex tape, and that's more than we can say for her many imitators (we're talking to you, Kardashian). Paris Hilton the model has appeared in ad campaigns for Guess, Tommy Hilfiger, Christian Dior, and Marciano. Paris Hilton the television star brought us the Paris-centric reality shows The Simple Life and My New BFF. Paris the movie star (we use that term loosely) has appeared in House of Wax, The Hottie and the Nottie and a few other debacles not worth mentioning. Paris the singer released a self-titled pop album that featured the hit single "Stars are Blind" and silenced her critics, if only a second. She's sold perfume, hawked books and charged club owners thousands of dollars just to lick her Christian Louboutins. She's an ex-convict, an inadvertent porn star, a cunning ingenue, a villain to some, and a hero to others. She's the American dream on steroids, and we just can't seem to get enough.
Paris Hilton Biography
paris hilton stars in a sex tape
When Paris Hilton's now-infamous sex tape with then-boyfriend Rick Salomon was leaked in 2004, many felt that its proximity to the premiere of Hilton's upcoming FOX reality show The Simple Life was more than mere coincidence. Prior to the video, Paris Hilton was rich, but she wasn't yet famous. All it took was some vaginal penetration, cunnilingus and fellatio in the austerity of night vision to transform Paris Hilton from Page Six mainstay into a national icon. The Simple Life went on to be a ratings smash, legal battles between Paris and Salomon became front page fodder, the tape won Best Selling Title of the Year at the 2005 AVN Awards, and the meaning of "One Night in Paris" would never be the same again.paris hilton becomes a reality star
After watching Paris Hilton in her various cinematic crimes against humanity (House of Wax, Pledge This!), we've come to realize one thing: The girl can't act. Luckily, her desperate need for attention and ignorance-is-bliss veneer make her a perfect fit for the hyper-synthetic world of reality TV. In 2003, Hilton and her lifelong friend and fellow celebutante Nicole Richie were sent to live with the blue collar Leding family in Altus, Arkansas, for a month. We watched them toil in mud, milk cows, plow fields, and work the drive-in all while charming the skeptical town folk with their glossy charm and aw-shucks demeanor. Audiences fell for the plucky duo, not knowing whether to cringe or rejoice at the girls' utter lack of real world savvy. America was charmed and the show was a hit. Unfortunately, Paris and Nicole suffered a highly publicized falling out, and after many attempted retoolings, the show was eventually canceled in 2007. Paris once again found success in the reality genre when Paris Hilton's My New BFF premiered on MTV in 2008. The show was a survivor-like competition in which Paris searched for her new best friend through a series of ridiculous challenges and eliminations. The show never quite took off in the same way that The Simple Life did, but after three seasons of searching in the States, Paris has moved the show to the UK, because apparently a girl can never have too many BFFs.paris hilton becomes a pop star
They said it couldn't be done. They said she'd be ridiculed, outcast and left for dead. But in 2006, when Paris Hilton released her eponymous debut album on Heiress Records -- a label she founded under Warner Bros. Records -- she proved them all wrong. Okay, maybe not, but the album did reach number six on the Billboard 200 and even we have to admit that lead single "Stars Are Blind" was kind of catchy. Since then, Hilton has been talking up her next album and even debuted a new single titled "My BFF" on KIIS-FM with Ryan Seacrest. Hilton can also be heard singing on the soundtrack to the musical Repo! The Genetic Opera, a movie in which she also starred. Say what you will about Paris the singer, but shouldn't we at least give her points for trying? Um, maybe not.paris hilton dates the world

Boys....get tested.paris hilton goes to jail
Paris Hilton may be a bad driver. She may be a little dimwitted, too. We'd like to think it's a little bit of column A, and a little bit of column B. Despite showing a sharp sense for business and self-promotion, only a fool would be caught driving with a suspended license -- not once -- but twice while on probation. It seems that Paris Hilton is that fool, and it was an incident that led to her highly publicized 45-day stint at the Century Regional Detention Facility, an all-female jail in Lynwood, California. None of us can forget the image of a weeping Paris being driven to jail to begin her sentence. Although no one admitted it at the time, the idea of Hilton rotting away in a cell didn't sit well with many. In a sudden turn of events, L.A. County Sheriff Lee Baca signed orders reassigning Hilton to 40 days of home confinement with an electronic monitoring device due to an unspecified medical condition. When the judge caught wind of this, he overturned the order and sent Hilton back to jail as she screamed "It's not right!" in the courtroom and proceeded to hug her mommy. Our hearts collectively broke, and we pretended to care about Kim Kardashian until she was released.In case you're wondering, the self-professed "new beginning" that Hilton claimed she would undertake while appearing on Larry King Live has since gone out the window, and she's been dancing on table tops ever since.
paris hilton gets a witch to hex cristiano ronaldo?
Paris Hilton is rumored to be behind the hex currently wreaking havoc on Cristiano Ronaldo. Ever since joining Real Madrid, the star footballer hasn't lived up to the hype or his hefty contract since joining the team, especially thanks to a recent injury. It's rumored that Ms. Hilton hired Pepe the Witch to cause injury to Ronaldo, after being dumped by the soccer star. Ouch. Remember when Jessica Simpson was just bad luck for Tony Romo? This is taking things to a whole new level.Paris Hilton Vitals

Prevention is the best policy when it comes to bed bugs, but sometimes no matter what you they find a way inside. Having your mattress, box spring and pillows protected and sealed against bed bugs will help make bed bug control easier.
Protecta-A-Bed Allerzip products are certified bed bug proof, FDA approved as a Class I medical device, have earned the Good Housekeeping seal and won Editors Choice Award.
The Protect-A-Beds Mattress Encasements are manufactured with leading technology in bed bug bite proof material. This is known as Miracle Membrane.
The Miracle Membrane does much more than just prevent bed bugs from biting through, it also increases the sanitation of the bedding by being waterproof, air vapor porous, an allergen barrier, and a dust mite barrier.
Bug Lock with secure seal and 3 Sided Zipper system
Every one of our encasements features a patented enclosure system that incorporates a sealed safety trench that is stitched around the typically vulnerable zipper clasp, as well as micro-zipper teeth for an extra tight seal.
If a bed bugs infestation is detected, there are some measures you can take to protect yourself and your mattress. One of the only ways to get rid of bed bugs that are already present is to have a professional pest control specialist steam, clean and vacuum the mattress and floor in the affected room. Structural fumigations may be necessary for severe cases of bed bug infestation, which requires the fogging or bombing of a room with chemicals. However, one of the most effective and proven methods as an aide in bed bugs protection is economical and simple: bedding encasements.
Bedding encasements are essential to bed bugs protection and management. Mattress encasements are especially useful in the prevention of bed bugs before an infestation even occurs. When you encase your mattress and box spring, you cut off the food source to the bed bugs in the mattress and box spring, which will eventually lead to their death. This does not eliminate the infestation, as bed bugs will breed anywhere in the house. However, it does make it much easier to spot bed bugs on the mattress when the look for a blood meal, which in turn makes eradication more painless. Also, the mattress cover and box spring encasements help prevent the spread of bed bugs to other areas of the home. Mattress and box spring encasements are easy, cost-efficient and extremely effective methods of controlling, preventing and eliminating bed bugs. However, the encasements must be scientifically proven to work. If not, they will be ineffective.
Protect-A-Bed®'s mattress encasements are scientifically proven to be an effective tool in the management of a bed bug infestation and are certified by an Entomology Laboratory to be bed bug entry, escape and bite proof.
ePestSolutions also offers a wide variety of bed bug treatment products to control and kill bed bugs effectively. These products range from bed bug sprays and dusts to bed bug traps and insect growth regulators.
The patented BugLock® (US Patent 7,552,489); with Secure Seal® feature, is a 3 sided zipper system with micro-zipper teeth specifically designed to prevent bed bugs from weaving their way through the closed zipper. The stitched safety trench is sealed around the end clasp of the zipper which is typically vulnerable due to its inability to fully close. The safety trench is designed with raised padding underneath the end stop, which creates an impassable seal. The seal prevents passage of bed bugs into and out of the encasement even if the zipper clasp pulls away from the end stop. Secure Seal® consists of a "zip tie" which attaches to the zipper as well as an added tie down point on the encasement. This means that under no condition will the zipper pull away from the end clasp.

Great location, close to everything you need, like transportation, supermarket, restaurants and the Gran Via de Corts Catalanes which takes you to every place a tourist needs to visit! I loved everything about it. The apartment was very clean, the beds confortable, the bathroom great, and the ...contact person realy nice and friendly! Only the internet reception was very bad and should be improved, my boyfriend was there on work and could not get anything done with the internet we had there, we could hardly acess our e-mails. Other than that, perfect!
The equipment of the apartment was fine. What unfortunately not visible was not in the description of the apartment and also in the photos that Windows made of frosted glass were equipped with grills. This one had to look at no way out of the window and in extreme cases, when a fire in the ... ...corridor would be broken out, you would not have come out of the apartment. The staff had passed the apartment, then said that you would then just pitch. It had the feel of a prison to live and had not noticed how the weather was. Once did not open the door to our apartment and we had to wait some time until the employee opened the door. Internet not always went.The ventilation in the bathroom out not and the bidet has very unpleasant smell.
Die Austattung der Wohnung war in Ordnung. Was leider nicht in der Beschreibung der Wohnung und auch auf den Fotos nicht erkennbar war, dass die Fenster aus Milchglas waren und mit Gittern versehen. Dadurch hatte man keine Möglichkeit aus dem Fenster zu schauen und im Extremfall, wenn ein Feuer im ...Flur ausgebrochen wäre, wäre man nicht aus der Wohnung gekommen. Der Mitarbeiter, der die Wohnung übergeben hatte, meinte dann, dass man dann eben Pech hätte. Man hatte das Gefühl in einem Gefängnis zu leben und hatte nicht mitbekommen, wie das Wetter war. Einmal ließ sich die Tür zu unserer Wohnung nicht öffnen und wir mussten einige Zeit warten, bis der Mitarbeiter die Tür offnete. Internet ging nicht immer. Die Lüftung im Bad funkionierte nicht und das Bidet hat sehr unangenehm gerochen.
We had cold! heating
Nous avons eu froid !! chauffage & Wifi pas performant du tout ... Wifi = Clef3G ---> LENT ! Insonnorisation de l'appartement inexistante , vous entendez tout (cage d'escalier , rue etc ...) Bon lit mais casi absence de couette couverture etc .. linge de maison pareil . Appartement en Rez... de chaussé donc vue du trottoir plongeante dans votre salon. Sinon Propre et fonctionnel mais je n'y retournerai pas .
The number for us to call is not a mobile phone number. It takes too many calls to reach someone and that is if you are lucky enough to reach. In today's day and age, how inefficient this is. Separately, they do not take the information we provide seriously. We said we will arrive at 1230pm, if ...we are on time. We did reach there on time, but no one showed up. They said it is better that we call first, but the trouble is no one picks up the call. It was after several calls that we managed to reach someone and we had to wait for 45 minutes before he can arrive to assist. Worst still, it took almost an hour to get the internet working, so that I can sign to accept the booking electronically. To improve, they must be readily contactable (have a mobile phone reachable at least between 8am till 8pm. The apartment's internet has got to improve as well. Princep Jordi is a very good location. They can charge higher rates and people wouldn't mind paying if its ability to be contactable, with internet facilities in the accommodation improved. You can see these same comments repeated by other visitors.
The internet speed is very low...
Le débit internet est très faible...
The apartment is well equipped, in 15 minutes on foot from la Rambla, 2 minutes Metro entries. The only flat is the sound at the level of the entrance hall: the breakdown door and sounds not resound in all the stairwell which often results in a morning wake-up. Perfect home service, booking advised.
L'appartement est bien équipé, à 15 minutes à pieds de la Rambla, à 2 minutes des entrées de Métro. Le seul bémol est l'insonorisation au niveau du hall d'entrée : la porte claque et les bruits de pas résonnent dans toute la cage d'escaliers ce qui entraîne souvent un réveil matinal. Service d'accueil parfait, réservation à conseiller.
Overall it was pretty clean, but the lower part of the hood in the kitchen was very dirty. It is not at the height of a person but a horrible especially if you put to boil water, as I step impression to me, to make a bottle and you have to throw it away because it dropped fat, clean it as I could so... that not to pass me again but it would be great is to keep those details. Thank you.
En general estaba bastante limpio, pero en la cocina la parte baja de la campana extractora estaba muy sucia. No se ve a la altura de una persona pero da una impresión horrible sobre todo si pones a cocer agua, como me paso a mi, para hacer un biberón y tienes que tirarla porque ha caído grasa, ...la limpie como pude para que no me volviera a pasar pero seria estupendo que se cuidaran esos detalles. Gracias.
Being a semi-basement with exposure on the road I could not give up the vote. Excellent ventilation system.
Trattandosi di un semi-interrato con l'esposizione sulla strada non ho potuto dare il massimo del voto. Ottimo il sistema di areazione.
Fire away and we'll get back to you soon!

Reviewer: Donna B. Sun May 05, 2013:
Reviewer: Cynthia P. Thu Apr 25, 2013: It wears real well.
Reviewer: Wed Apr 24, 2013: At first I was a little let down as I asked for the gold not red but that is okay. Scratches easily.
Reviewer: Kris J. Fri Apr 12, 2013: This bracelet is functional and good looking. Since I have to wear it all of the time, I am glad I chose this bracelet.
Reviewer: Milo M. Sun Apr 07, 2013: The ID bracelet is exactly as perceived per the picture and decription given on the internet. If I have any complaint at all, it is as follows The clasp does not quite close, leaving a small gap, that can catch on fine silk and linen materials.
Reviewer: Lisa I. Fri Mar 29, 2013: It should have a little more room to engrave on to were u can put a little more information
Reviewer: Lisa O. Thu Mar 14, 2013: Overall I am very happy with the product for the price paid. My medical ID gives my husband & I piece of mind which is great, for a small cost. The only disappointment is that the surface scratches very easily.
Reviewer: Jacqueline L. Thu Mar 14, 2013:
Reviewer: Earline W. Wed Mar 13, 2013: I really like the bracelet,but the clasp (did not close all way) had to be adjusted. I had to take it to be repaired when I first received it. Did not have time to return it to be replaced.
Reviewer: Thu Mar 07, 2013: Its very light weight and most of the time I dont even know I am wearing it. I have only had it for a week or so bit so for I am very satisfied with titanium.
Reviewer: Cheryl C. Mon Mar 04, 2013:
Reviewer: Sat Mar 02, 2013: it's good, it's solid. it's easy to read.
Reviewer: Jessica H. Fri Mar 01, 2013: I thought the detailing would be more defined. It seems a bit pricy but it serves it's purpose.
Reviewer: Cheri H. Thu Feb 28, 2013: Well-crafted, basic product. Wish you had more selections with the clasp next to the shield which are more comfortable to wear. Was very disappointed that I paid quite a bit for a rush-rush prodution & delivery, and it took 2 days longer than advertised.

Reviewer: Mary Beth G. Sat Jan 12, 2013: I love my Titanium medical bracelet, and engraving was perfect; however, it's just a bit big. I wish it was more dainty, but for the money, time spent ordering and getting it here, etc, it really is a good deal.
Reviewer: Cynthia W. Sat Jan 12, 2013: Nice complimentary piece of valuable jewelry.
Reviewer: Loretta F. Sat Jan 12, 2013: Accurate as per my order, attractive and as advertised, and the delivery time was excellent - much sooner than had been projected at the time I placed the order.

Reviewer: Patricia V. Fri Dec 28, 2012: I was dissapointed in the bracelet,( it looked like the metal was turning dark) for the price I paid.
Reviewer: Iva G. Fri Dec 28, 2012: It's great.
Reviewer: D C. Thu Dec 27, 2012:
Reviewer: Noemi I. Thu Dec 27, 2012: it looks very nice.

Reviewer: Vicki H. Tue Dec 18, 2012: I ordered this for myself and was impressed, very nice looking. The chain seems to be pretty sturdy.
Reviewer: Diana S. Tue Dec 18, 2012: disc is good, chain not so but it's value for money.
Reviewer: Laura T. Sat Dec 15, 2012: Small, but nice
Reviewer: Barbara K. Tue Dec 11, 2012: My husband does not like his bracelet. It is larger than we expected. He has taken two or three links out and he still is not happy with it. I should have talked to someone on the phone and measured his wrist.He gave up trying to wear it.
Reviewer: Kim W. Fri Dec 07, 2012: I love it. My old one was being held together with twist ties.
Reviewer: Gaylene L. Sun Dec 02, 2012: This bracelet is very lightweight and easy to care for. I appreciate being able to have all my essential medical information inscribed on it.
Reviewer: Kaitlin M. Thu Nov 29, 2012:
Reviewer: Lori H. Fri Nov 23, 2012: This ID is good for work but it is not as easy to hook the latch.
Reviewer: Barbara B. Thu Nov 08, 2012: This product is acceptable.
Reviewer: Mickey M. Wed Nov 07, 2012: Very nice
Reviewer: Siusan Y. Tue Oct 30, 2012: Just a bit cumbersome as bracelet need assistance from another person to put it on.
Reviewer: John G. Tue Oct 23, 2012:
Reviewer: Nancy M. Mon Oct 08, 2012: Good and fast service.
Reviewer: Pamela F. Sat Aug 11, 2012: The letters need to be in a dark color so you or the next person can read it.
Reviewer: Wendy W. Fri Aug 10, 2012: I purchased the small titanium curve bracelet. It seems MUCH more feminine looking on the website.I chose the style due to the silver color and durability, but it is already scratched. I didn't think titanium COULD scratch... somewhat disappointed.
Reviewer: Pamela F. Wed Aug 08, 2012: I love my bracelet,but the letters need too be in color so they can be seen.
Reviewer: Jerry R. Fri Jul 13, 2012: purchsed the bracelet with the interchangable bands...comfortable, easy to order...just wish the engraving was a little deeper, prominent...could be hard to read in emer situation
Reviewer: Teresa R. Sat Jul 07, 2012: love the change of color for my daughter who is always coordinating outfits.
Reviewer: Sara L. Tue Jun 19, 2012: I like this ID with the 8 colored silicone bands, but it is hard to get the titanium ID on and off the bands. I wish the medical symbol was all red instead of just being outlined in red.
Reviewer: Gladys B. Sat May 05, 2012: The bracelet is very nice and meets my needs entirely.
Reviewer: Leanne P. Thu Apr 05, 2012: i like the bracelet but the surface is all ready scuffed up and it happened right after i put it on. i bought the titanium bracelet because i thought it would hold the shine better.
Reviewer: Kay F. Tue Apr 03, 2012: Titanium is required for me as I have an allergy to nickle. The chain is way too large and chunky for a female making it unattractive to wear daily. I also got the sleek band with various colors and like it very much. Both held less information than I needed. The keychain fob holds the most info and is attached to my car keys.
Reviewer: Wanda W. Fri Mar 30, 2012: Liked the titanium curve but not the bracelet. Looked cheap, dull, ugly, big. Disappointed
Reviewer: Ruth J. Sat Mar 10, 2012: It is not as small as I had wanted, but it's okay
Reviewer: Deb P. Thu Mar 08, 2012: I was afraid the bracelet would be too large as my wrists are extremely small. However, all we did was take off the expansion rings and it fit fine. Nice looking, light weight. Good choice.
Reviewer: Heather M. Wed Mar 07, 2012: I am very pleased with the bracelet I bought for my mother, we have been looking for one for awhile.
Reviewer: Martha A. Tue Feb 28, 2012: IT IS ATTRACTIVE AND VERY LIGHTWEIGHT WHICH I PARTICULARLY LIKE. ENGRAVING WAS NICELY DONE AND CORRECT
Reviewer: Shirley G. Thu Feb 23, 2012: I love my titanium collection for everyday wear.
Reviewer: Carolyn R. Tue Feb 21, 2012: im very satified with it
Reviewer: Dorothy S. Wed Feb 15, 2012: I did not realize that titanium may scratch easier than stainless and I' just hoping it will hold up as well as stainless. Time will tell.
Reviewer: Shirley G. Tue Feb 14, 2012: I purchased the small titanium bracelet with all the different color bracelets. I love them. I can change different colors to match what I'm wearing.
Reviewer: Megan H. Tue Feb 14, 2012: At first very nice and shiney, but scratches easily.
Reviewer: Kathleen C. Sat Feb 04, 2012: i purchased this for my daughter and thought that the small meant small. This looks more like something for a man, so she won't wear it, and it was a waste of my money
Reviewer: Laura B. Tue Jan 31, 2012: It's fine. The band I first ordered was snug so I tried to order a slightly larger one, but was sent the wrong kind of band. I returned it and reordered the larger size band but haven't received it yet. The bracelet itself works very well for me.
Reviewer: Donna W. Tue Jan 24, 2012: Bracelet is fine, not enough room to put all pertinent information on. Had to limit important information.
Reviewer: Cheryl T. Sat Jan 21, 2012: I love the style but I could not wear the Titanium. I wish you would offer it in Starling or Stainless steel.I am returning the bracelet.
Reviewer: Thu Jan 19, 2012: Very nice, except we had to take it to a jeweler to have a different clasp put on. It was not made well and was too large and stuck out. Now it is fine.
Reviewer: Mildred S. Tue Jan 17, 2012: I am very pleased with my bracelet. it arrived much sooner than promised, which was a real plus.
Reviewer: Keith B. Fri Jan 13, 2012: I love the fact that this works on Cause bracelets. It works out well for outdoor activities and such. Great product.
Reviewer: Rita R. Fri Jan 13, 2012: I found my bracelet to be attractive, sleek, and comfortable.
Reviewer: K A. Fri Jan 13, 2012: cheaply made; incorrect size, poor customer service; turned out I not only had to pay for postage because you underpaid it, but I also should have received the bracelets (for which I was charged and paid 5) free on top of my discount code. I feel ripped off big time. I am surprised at this and thought you were a good company that cared about their customers
Reviewer: Pam W. Tue Jan 03, 2012: I like that I can change colors of the bracelet and also that this is very trendy, very nice choice for a medical id bracelet
Reviewer: M K. Fri Dec 30, 2011: Bought the small ID and am very satisfied. Have only had it for about a week.
Reviewer: Lynn L. Fri Dec 23, 2011: mine has tatanium on a purple rubber band.. I thought I could see the Medical symbol clearer...
Reviewer: Ray B. Wed Dec 21, 2011: I find it hard to slide or put the ingraving band onto the rubber band when I want to change colours. Other than that I like the sporty look.
Reviewer: Maureen R. Wed Dec 14, 2011: I think it is very comfortable to wear, though I think you should have enclosed instructions for changing the bands.
Reviewer: Christy N. Sat Nov 26, 2011: It was just as I expected based on the website. Nice product.
Reviewer: Kim M. Fri Nov 25, 2011: The links are much largers than I thought they would have been. It looks more like a mens bracelet than a womans.
Reviewer: Wendelyn T. Sat Nov 12, 2011: Looks great, and I can wear it dress up or down. I had to take it and have it shortened. Overall, I am happy with this product.
Reviewer: Fred B. Fri Nov 11, 2011: Would like to have had more information on the back but overall it is a good looking bracelet.
Reviewer: Jaime B. Tue Nov 01, 2011: I couldn't believe how fast we received our order. I had to get one and my mom needed a new one due to changes, everything was correct and our experience was awesome Very glad to do business with American Medical.
Reviewer: Tara J. Sun Oct 02, 2011: Good Quality - fits well - very comfortable.
Reviewer: D S. Tue Sep 27, 2011: Bracelet links have sharp edges;scratches easily. Clasp is very difficult to use.
Reviewer: Connie R. Fri Sep 16, 2011: I like the bracelet. The links were a little larger than I expected. I like the design of the plate. I believe it will scratch more easily because I like the bracelets to be loose. I am very satisfied.

What's cooking at Celtic Connections 2011
I tend to view my relationship with CELTIC CONNECTIONS as a gauge of this humble blog's stock in Scottish music circles.
Two years ago, I was unceremoniously told by the organisers that The Pop Cop wasn't important enough to be supplied with review tickets for any of their shows.
For the 2010 festival in January, though, the Celtic Connections team were happy to give me media accredition for all the gigs I wanted to review.
And this week I was invited to attend the press launch (including breakfast!) for the 2011 programme, which I had to turn down, so I guess that makes us even.
Next year's festival runs from January 13–30 at various Glasgow venues and given the sheer volume of events that are taking place (more than 1,500 performers will be on show) not all of it will be to everyone's tastes, but I'd be amazed if there isn't something for everyone.
Such is the eclecticm of Celtic Connections these days even American indie-rock band The Walkmen come under the official banner despite their music bearing no resemblance to anything celtic. Perhaps they're raging Tims.
The Walkmen – Woe Is Me
In terms of Scottish eye and ear candy, there are special performances from Roddy Hart and Rachel Sermanni to look forward to, while other choice cuts include Dublin's answer to Tegan And Sara, twin sister duo Heathers.
Heathers – Remember When
Here are The Pop Cop's highlights in full:
January 16: The Burns Unit featuring King Creosote, Karine Polwart, Emma Pollock, Future Pilot AKA, Old Fruitmarket (tickets)
January 19: The Walkmen, Oran Mor (tickets)
January 21: Justin Currie / Heathers, ABC (tickets)
January 21: Trembling Bells, Oran Mor (tickets)
January 23: Rachel Sermanni, Royal Concert Hall (tickets)
January 23: Sharon Shannon Big Band featuring Imelda May, Shane MacGowan and Mundy, Old Fruitmarket (tickets)
January 23: BMX Bandits 25th Anniversary, Oran Mor (tickets)
January 24: Forever Young – A 70th Birthday Tribute to Bob Dylan featuring Roddy Hart & The Lonesome Fire, Justin Currie, Tim O'Brien, Justin Townes Earle, Thea Gilmore, James Grant, Rab Noakes, Gemma Hayes, Royal Concert Hall (tickets)
January 27: Tommy Reilly, Tron Theatre (tickets)
January 29: Roddy Woomble / Amelia Curran, St Andew's In The Square (tickets)
In addition, Celtic Connections have teamed up with charity Mary's Meals for a special fundraising concert at the Old Fruitmarket this month featuring Colin Macintyre, Jon Fratelli, Eddi Reader, Tommy Reilly, Roddy Hart and Washington Irving on October 29 (tickets).

UNION — The Union County Arts Council is in the process of signing up students for a watercolor workshop to be taught by watercolorist Larry Mauldin of Spartanburg. Mauldin is the past-president of both the South Carolina Watercolor Society and the Spartanburg Artist Guild. He is presently serving on the South Carolina Watercolor Society's governing board and has taught art at the Spartanburg Art Center for 18 years. He also teaches workshops throughout North and South Carolina.
Mauldin's work was on display at UCAC during January until mid-February.
"We were very lucky to have an artist of Larry's caliber show his work in Union," said UCAC coordinator Jackie Senn. "This was the perfect way to start our 2013 Featured Artist Series. Now we're hoping to fill his workshop. Everyone who came to his show here was very impressed with his work and techniques."
The workshop will be based on Mauldin's painting "Mountain Solitude" and each student should be able to leave at the end of the day with a completed, or nearly completed, work. A materials list will be available at UCAC.
"Due to our limited space, we are only accepting sixteen students into this workshop," said Senn. "We're encouraging anyone who might be interested in attending to register early."
The Mauldin Workshop will be held on March 16 at the UCAC gallery on Main Street in Union from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. An "on your own" lunch break will be given and students will have time to explore some of the local restaurants.
For more information about, or to sign up for, the workshop, call 864-429-2817 or email email@example.com.

The song, which will be out next month, is about rock stars dying young, particularly the "27 club," as he references the deaths of Amy Winehouse and Rolling Stones guitarist Brian Jones -- "Is there heaven for the forever twenty sevens, could it be three years till I'm jammin' with legends." As for making an appearance on the song, May says, "I don't have time for 'guesting' much anymore on people's records. But when this track arrived in my inbox, I couldn't say no. Dappy's work reminds me that, although our 'genres' may be a million miles apart, there are areas where we speak the same language. He's a rock star!" May is also featured in the song's video. |

Extend Hyperic to Support Your Needs
vFabric Hyperic can be extended in two ways, Management Plugins and HQU Plugins.
Management Plugins
Hyperic's Management Plug-ins Framework lets you build your own plugins to manage practically any type of server that Hyperic doesn't already support. Through this framework, Hyperic can discover, monitor, and control any application or device using a straightforward Java/XML API. Hyperic Management Plugins are self-contained .jar or .xml files which are deployed on the Hyperic Server and Agent through the Hyperic Plugin Manager.
The Hyperic Server accesses metadata and other information from the plugin for:
- Platform, Server and Service resource types
- Configuration Schema for each resource type
- Measurements
- Optional help text to enable product-specific instrumentation
- Control actions
The Hyperic's Agent invokes plugin implementations for:
- Measurement
- Control
- Auto Inventory
- Response Time
Management Plugin development documentation is available on the Hyperic documentation site.
HQU Plugins
Hyperic's HQU Plug-in framework lets you create custom user interfaces to present performance data to meet your organization's specific needs. The HQU Framework extends the Hyperic user interface to automate routine processes and integrate Hyperic with other management systems. Written in Groovy, a dynamic scripting language for the Java Virtual Machine, HQU plug-ins can be shared and added to live environments without stopping or restarting the Hyperic Server.
Hyperic HQU plugins are typically developed to provide:
- Custom UI viewsfor improved tracking and automation of specific applications or hard-to-manage tasks. For example, an event log viewer simplifies problem trouble-shooting and resolution through a comprehensive, filterable view of log data monitored across all managed resources.
- Web services integration to enable Hyperic to syndicate key data to other infrastructure management systems. One example is OpenNMS integration, which shares Hyperic inventory and alert information with the OpenNMS network management solution.
- The Groovy script console which lets you use templates to automate manual, error-prone tasks—such as "HTTP check services" for resources in a group.
HQU Framework documentation and examples are available on HyperFORGE.
