Designer Fashion and Fine Jewelry Robberies Stolen Style: The Most Memorable Fashion Heists by Justin Fenner 12/06/13 44 Reactions 13 Shares Print 0 0 0 13 0 It's been a particularly active year for fashion heists. In the latest one since this year's multimillion-dollar Cannes jewelry caper, CNN has reported that a couple made off with several luxury watches from the Audemars Piguet store on the Place Vendôme in Paris. Police are still gathering information about this robbery, but there are plenty of other fashion thefts that still haven't been completely solved. Case in point: only a portion of the legendary raid at the Harry Winston store in Paris was ever found, and it doesn't appear that all of Marc Jacobs's stolen Spring 2012 samples were found. Herein, a look at some of the most brazen, lucrative, and strange thefts in fashion. Source: Getty Who Was Watching the Watch Shop? What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 An armed couple walked into the Audemars Piguet store on the Place Vendôme in Paris on Dec. 5 and made off with 19 timepieces worth an estimated $1.1 million, according to CNN. Fortunately, no one was harmed during the robbery. 1 / 15 1 of 15 The Shoe-Shaped Hat That Got Away What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 A stiletto-shaped hat Bill Cunningham created for the late Anna Piaggi was stolen from an exhibit of her hats in Milan during Milan Fashion Week. Piaggi's nephew Stefano Piaggi told WWD, "We tried to keep this unpleasant event secret until the end of the exhibition, but it's leaking out. We reported the theft, but we didn't get any news yet." The hat, which Cunningham made in the '70s, was taken the last weekend of September. The rest of the show, entitled Hat-ology, will go on until Nov. 20. 2 / 15 2 of 15 The Diamonds That Weren't Forever What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 "Diamonds are forever but stolen diamonds are not," said Manhattan's US attorney Preet Bharara during the trial of Ingrid Lederhaas-Okun. She'd been in court since earlier in 2013, when she was accused of stealing and reselling over $2 million worth of jewels while working as vice president of product development at Tiffany & Co. Lederhaas-Okun pleaded guilty in late July, and under her plea deal she agreed to forfeit $2.1 million and will restore another $2.2 million to the company she once worked for. 3 / 15 3 of 15 Another Day, Another Jewelry Heist at a Cannes Hotel What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The Carlton Hotel in Cannes this weekend saw the latest in a series of jewelry heists in the French seaside town. The BBC reported Sunday that an armed robber had stolen nearly €40 million worth of jewels (just over $53 million at current exchange) created by Leviev. "A full and urgent operation is under way to catch the culprit and recover these jewels," said a spokesman for the Cannes police. "Thieves see Cannes as rich pickings." 4 / 15 4 of 15 The Legendary Tiffany Raid What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In September 1994, a group of thieves tied up the guards at the Tiffany store on New York's Fifth Avenue and left with $1 million worth of jewelry. Instead of a smash-and-grab job, these thieves were more selective and took some 300 watches, rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and other items. "It was a very, very professional job," NYPD Capt. Salvatore M. Blando told The New York Times. "They were definitely on a schedule. They might have cased the place for a long time. We're looking into it being an inside job." 6 / 15 5 of 15 The Theft of Miranda Kerr's Unmentionables What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Among the victims of the Bling Ring — the group of young people who broke into the homes of various celebrities in the Hollywood Hills between 2008 and 2009 — was Miranda Kerr. It was recently revealed that among the items the thieves stole, which included mainly clothing and jewelry, was lingerie belonging to Miranda. "The fact that they stole the underwear just seems so weird, but it's not weird when you think about it, because they're growing up at a time when their culture is constantly telling them to be sexy," said Nancy Jo Sales, the Vanity Fair reporter who first told the story of the Bling Ring in 2010. "Everything from toys to video games to music to fashion is hypersexualized for girls. Stealing their underwear was part of a whole trend to emulate these celebrities. They don't just want expensive underwear — they want Paris Hilton's underwear." 6 / 15 6 of 15 The Bergdorf Goodman Jewelry Heist What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In June 2012, a trio of thieves broke into the Bergdorf Goodman store in NYC and took "at least hundreds of thousands of dollars" in fine jewelry. One thief used a hammer to break into the store's glass door, another tried to block passersby from seeing what he was doing, and a third drove a getaway car. Many of the baubles stolen were created by Philadelphia-based jeweler Paul Morelli. The brand's luxury retail manager John Winkler told The New York Post, "That thief obviously has good taste." 7 / 15 7 of 15 The Chanel Burglary in Beantown What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In October 2010, four men and a woman were seen rushing into Chanel's store in Boston and making off with around $100,000 worth of the brand's handbags, jackets, and accessories. It wasn't their first luxury job, either: police said the same group targeted a Louis Vuitton store in Boston twice in the month before the Chanel raid. 8 / 15 8 of 15 The DeBeers Jewelry Theft What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 This February, two men armed with wigs, handguns, and bullet-proof vests went to the DeBeers stand at Paris's Printemps department store. No shots were fired, and no one was harmed, but the thieves walked out of the store's personnel exit shortly after they arrived with a haul estimated at between $2.7 million and $4 million. 9 / 15 9 of 15 The Drive-In at Gucci's London Store What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 A group of three thieves backed what was believed to be a stolen Mercedes-Benz through the front doors of Gucci's store on Sloane Street in Kensington this March. The three took a sampling of the brand's handbags and then drove off in a blue Audi A4. 11 / 15 10 of 15 The Marc Jacobs Sample Theft What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In November 2011, the Marc Jacobs public relations team had to cancel previews of its Spring 2012 collection in London due to, as it wrote in an email to editors, "the theft of the Spring/Summer 2012 collections during its transfer from Paris." The entire collection totaled 46 looks that hadn't yet gone into production, and the company offered a reward for information about its whereabouts. Luckily, the missing samples were duplicates of the original collection shown in New York. But just two weeks later, more of Jacobs's designs went missing when a team of masked gunmen stole around $400,000 worth of Louis Vuitton merchandise that was being shipped through Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris. 11 / 15 11 of 15 The Cross-Dressers Who Robbed Harry Winston What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In December 2008, four men — three dressed as women — buzzed the intercom of the Harry Winston store in Paris and asked to be let in. Once inside, they brandished a gun and a hand grenade and addressed some of the store's workers by name in French, spoken with, according to The New York Times, "strong Slavic accents." Over the next 15 minutes, the thieves smashed into jewelry cases and loaded up their bags with $105 million worth of jewelry. Some of the haul was recovered in a 2009 police raid that sent nine people — including the person suspected of masterminding the heist — to jail. In 2011, some $25 million of the stolen jewelry was found in a rain vent of a home that belonged to one of the people charged with the theft. 12 / 15 12 of 15 The Hermès Flash Mob Robbery What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 A flash mob targeted an Hermès store in Houston, Texas, in December 2011, using around 10 people to break down the door of the luxury goods outpost. Police said the thieves spent less than three minutes in the store before making off with whatever they could carry. 13 / 15 13 of 15 The Chopard Cannes Caper What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Just days into the 2013 Cannes Film Festival, it was reported that some $1.4 million worth of jewelry from Chopard had been stolen from the hotel room of one of the company's employees. While the jewels haven't been recovered yet, Chopard has said that the baubles stolen were not a part of the collection being loaned to celebrities — like Cara Delevingne, at left — who are walking the festival's red carpet. 14 / 15 14 of 15 The Cannes Caper, Part Deux What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Less than a week after jewelry was stolen from a Chopard employee's hotel room in Cannes, it was reported that a de Grisogono necklace worth $2.6 million was stolen from a party the brand was having during the film festival. "These incidents are rare; it is actually the first time it has happened in our 20-year history," said de Grisogono's founder Fawaz Gruosi in a statement. "However when they occur, one must be proactive and collaborate with the authorities." There has been no advancement in the case since the theft.

Thunder as champions would be better
I cant wait to see, when that final second runs out,
the look on lebrons face
I love seeing guys with massive egos have that crushed look on their face
we all know that look
Heck, when i found out my college sweetheart was sleeping with an arab behind my back,
yes, i had that look too
you only want to see it on egotistical super stars
reality comes crashing through, that you just were not good enough
the fancy house you live in, may attract more women, than a honey pot to bees
or a bag of sugar to ants
When the clock strikes midnight,
lebron gets to be called pumpkin for another year
I know its inevitable lebron will win at least one championship
he has another 13 tries
but if he does not win 3 championships, his career will be considered a failure
I just want him to wait till he is 33 before he gets his first ring
then he will stop wearing those stupid glasses at press conferences
now, that would be a great story
Who knows?
maybe lebron will give his coach another "accidental" walk into frustration shove
You have our celts number, but no ring!
Aminkoff31 said 06/13, 09:22 PM
Playing Devils advocate because I am cheering for a Thunder Sweep.
Let's be honest. How many of you have ever been to Cleveland? Did you enjoy it? If you were given the option to leave there for practically every major city in the country would you stay in Cleveland or upgrade?
So lets forget the argument of lets jeer him for deciding to leave a franchise that never built a decent team around him to go to a Miami team that had potential.
Is it that Egotistical for LeBron to admit that he needed help to win and needed to go to Miami and solicit Dwayne Wade's help in winning rings?
It would be a great story line to see, LeBron proves that he isn't a LeBust!
Like it or not LeBron does a lot for the community he is very active still in Akron and all over the country traveling to Boys and Girls Clubs events. He is a nice guy at heart. To see the Heat win despite having a bum as a coach and a Cleveland like team around LeBron it would be a pretty nice headline.
Much better than seeing a picture under that headline of Russel Westbrook in his glasses and button up shirts.
HighwayCrossingFrog said 06/14, 08:13 AM
That was a great argument..
Technically, yeah, Im going for an easy win, ha ha..
But that was a pretty good devils advocate! Who knows, maybe you can pull off the upset..
You will definitely get Peachies vote..
Yeah, I dont know why lebron has a bad reputation..
But he does..
Cleveland probably has a big thing to do with it..
Maybe its the Powder he throws in the air before each game.. Comes across as a all-about-me kind of guy..
maybe its those stupid glasses.. He is trying to come across as an academic, when he didnt even go to college! ha ha..
Maybe it was that stupid commercial, where he has 4 different versions of Lebron, to an extent, it reeked of egoism..
I know he has a good side too..
HE once told security to go away, and let him take some pics with marines that were fans of his..
I know he is not as bad as Kobe..
But still, its always fun to make someone a villain, and then root against them..
A good vs evil thing..
Plus I am a huge Durant fan..
He and Jeremy Lin, are the only humble basketball players in the League..
And it would solidify that a star is born..
Great storyline..
Aminkoff31 said 06/15, 08:48 AM
LeBron has worked his butt off to get this point. He is the best player in the game. He deserves this title, he was earned this title. America likes two different winners: the underdog and the guy who worked his butt off to win. Right now LeBron is fulfilling both of those of roles
HighwayCrossingFrog said 06/15, 09:29 AM
Im out of ammo too, ha ha!
On a final point,
heat won a couple years back, so if they did win,
it wouldnt be a big deal..
thunder have never won..
heck oklahoma has never won anything..
heck heck, no one from oklahoma has ever won..
Oklahoma are lovable losers..
its almost like a 2nd division team winning the FA cup..
i dont even know where this place is..
aparently they are famous for good meat..
but you can say that about alot of places..
Aminkoff31 said 06/16, 01:29 PM
That Heat team that won a few years ago was am awfully different team then they are today, in fact I believe only Haslem and Wade are left from that team.
It is inevitable that the Thunder will win eventually, let them work for it a little bit harder.
LeBron has earned this and he will be emerging against all odds, he has a terrible coach and a terrible team around him that doesn't seem to want to take that next step with him.
While everyone loves to hate LeBron, I think we could all learn to love him a little bit.
The Thunder def.. they are the new school Spurs.. all they need is a go-to big man and they'll be good.. I see Perkins as a great back up.. he's a reggie evans type of player

One of the best centers in the league as a 'backup'? What are you smoking?
So lets forget the argument of lets jeer him for deciding to leave a franchise that never built a decent team around him
Revisionist history. The Cavs REPEATEDLY brought in guys Lebron wanted and assured the front office he could win with. Basically every player he asked for, they went out and got. Their biggest mistake was in letting Lebron choose the team around him. As good of a player as he is, he's equally bad at building teams.
One of the best centers in the league as a 'backup'? What are you smoking?
While I don't think Perkins is a backup (well, depends on which team, of course), I also don't see him as one of the best centers in the league.
I'll TD on that (not calling you out or anything, just saying it would be an interesting TD if you're willing to do it).
Total Comments (18924)
As much as I dislike LeBron and his crew (but him specifically), as a Sonics fan, I find that I have no choice but to cheer for the Heat on this one. It's no slight to the players on the Thunder, either. I simply cannot bring myself to cheer for a team that so utterly stolen from Seattle.
Nothing personal, Highway. You've gotten my vote plenty of times before... but not this time.

Tanis Rideout

In an author's note at the end of Above All Things, Tanis Rideout admits to falling in love with George Mallory, one of the first explorers of Mount Everest. It is impossible not to admire Mr. Mallory, who climbed with serpentine grace. In 1921, he searched Everest for months, looking for a path to the summit. In 1924, he died there. Read More

Ronnie Milsap was born on January 16, 1944, in Robbinsville, North Carolina. Blind since birth, he was raised in a poor farming community and was schooled in classical music at the Morehead State School for the Blind in Raleigh. Milsap's debut album was released by Warner Brothers in 1971. During his career, he's had 40 number one country hits, won six Grammys and eight Country Music Association Awards.
Early Years
Country singer Ronnie Milsap was born on January 16, 1944, in the Appalachian town of Robbinsville, North Carolina. Blind since birth, Milsap spent his early childhood in an impoverished farming community. With financial support from his grandparents, he attended the Morehead State School for the Blind in Raleigh, where he was taught classical music and learned to play the piano, violin, and guitar.
Milsap continued his education at Young-Harris Junior College in Atlanta, where he studied political science. After his graduation, he was offered a scholarship to Emory University, but instead chose to pursue a professional career in music. In 1964, at the age of 20, Milsap released his first single, "Total Disaster." The following year, he relocated to Memphis, where he fronted his own rhythm and blues band. In 1970, they recorded the pop single "Loving You is a Natural Thing." The following year, Milsap released his eponymous debut album for the Warner Bros. record label.
Career Highlights
In 1972, Milsap moved to the country music epicenter of Nashville, Tennessee; in 1973, he signed with RCA Victor. A slew of hit singles followed, including "I Hate You" (1973), "Pure Love," and "Please Don't Tell Me How the Story Ends" (both 1974). For the latter single, Milsap was awarded a Grammy for Best Male Country Vocal Performance. Furthermore, the Country Music Association named Milsap male vocalist of the year in 1974, 1976, and 1977.
In 1981, Milsap recorded the heart wrenching ballad "Smoky Mountain Rain," which introduced him to a larger audience when it crossed over to the pop charts. He secured the same success with the songs "(There's) No Gettin' Over Me" (1981) and "Any Day Now" (1982). In 1986, Milsap won another Best Male Country Vocal Performance Grammy for the album Lost in the Fifties Tonight (1986). The following year, he shared a Best Country Vocal Performance Duet Grammy with Kenny Rogers for their collaboration on the single "Make No Mistake, She's Mine."
In 1990, Milsap published an autobiography, Almost Like a Song, which chronicled his ascent from poverty-stricken beginnings to country music superstar. He collaborated with country rock veterans Alabama to record the 1997 holiday album Christmas in Dixie. Most recently, Milsap released the album Then Sings My Soul (2009).
To date, Milsap boasts 40 No.1 country hits, six Grammy Awards, and eight Country Music Association Awards.

International Research Team Headed by NYU's Maurizio Porfiri Demonstrates Breakthrough in Machine Learning
NEW YORK, Jan. 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- No machine is better at recognizing patterns in nature than the human brain. It takes mere seconds to recognize the order in a flock of birds flying in formation, schooling fish, or an army of a million marching ants. But computer analyses of collective animal behavior are limited by the need for constant tracking and measurement data for each individual; hence, the mechanics of social animal interaction are not fully understood.
An international team of researchers led by Maurizio Porfiri, associate professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at NYU Polytechnic School of Engineering, has introduced a new paradigm in the study of social behavior in animal species, including humans. Their work is the first to successfully apply machine learning toward understanding collective animal behavior from raw data such as video, image or sound, without tracking each individual. The findings stand to significantly impact the field of ethology- the objective study of animal behavior-and may prove as profound as the breakthroughs that allowed robots to learn to recognize obstacles and navigate their environment. The paper was published online today in Scientific Reports, an open-access journal of the Nature Publishing Group.
Starting with the premise that humans have the innate ability to recognize behavior patterns almost subconsciously, the researchers created a framework to apply that instinctive understanding to machine learning techniques. Machine learning algorithms are widely used in applications like biometric identification systems and weather trend data, and allow researchers to understand and compare complex sets of data through simple visual representations.
A human viewing a flock of flying birds discerns both the coordinated behavior and the formation's shape-a line, for example-without measuring and plotting a dizzying number of coordinates for each bird. For these experiments, the researchers deployed an existing machine learning method called isometric mapping (ISOMAP) to determine if the algorithm could analyze video of that same flock of birds, register the aligned motion, and embed the information on a low-dimensional manifold to visually display the properties of the group's behavior. Thus, a high-dimensional quantitative data set would be represented in a single dimension-a line-mirroring human observation and indicating a high degree of organization within the group.
"We wanted to put ISOMAP to the test alongside human observation," Porfiri explained. "If humans and computers could observe social animal species and arrive at similar characterizations of their behavior, we would have a dramatically better quantitative tool for exploring collective animal behavior than anything we've seen," he said.
The team captured video of five social species-ants, fish, frogs, chickens, and humans-under three sets of conditions-natural motion, and the presence of one and two stimuli-over 10 days. They subjected the raw video to analysis through ISOMAP, producing manifolds representing the groups' behavior and motion. The researchers then tasked a group of observers with watching the videos and assigning a measure of collective behavior to each group under each circumstance. Human rankings were scaled to be visually comparable with the ISOMAP manifolds.
The similarities between the human and machine classifications were remarkable. ISOMAP proved capable not only of accurately ascribing a degree of collective interaction that meshed with human observation, but of distinguishing between species. Both humans and ISOMAP ascribed the highest degree of interaction to ants and the least to frogs-analyses that hold true to known qualities of the species. Both were also able to distinguish changes in the animals' collective behavior in the presence of various stimuli.
The researchers believe that this breakthrough is the beginning of an entirely new way of understanding and comparing the behaviors of social animals. Future experiments will focus on expanding the technique to more subtle aspects of collective behavior; for example, the chirping of crickets or synchronized flashing of fireflies.
Porfiri's collaborators include NYU School of Engineering post-doctoral fellow Pietro DeLellis (visiting from University of Naples Feredico II, Italy), research scholar Giovanni Polverino and undergraduate student Gozde Ustuner; Nicole Abaid, assistant professor of engineering science and mechanics at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University; Simone Macri of the Department of Cell Biology and Neuroscience at Istituto Superiore di Sanita in Rome; and Erik M. Bollt, professor of mathematics at Clarkson University.
This research was supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation.
The NYU Polytechnic School of Engineering dates to 1854, when the NYU School of Civil Engineering and Architecture as well as the Brooklyn Collegiate and Polytechnic Institute (widely known as Brooklyn Poly) were founded. Their successor institutions merged in January 2014 to create a comprehensive school of education and research in engineering and applied sciences, rooted in a tradition of invention, innovation and entrepreneurship. In addition to programs at its main campus in downtown Brooklyn, it is closely connected to engineering programs in NYU Abu Dhabi and NYU Shanghai, and it operates business incubators in downtown Manhattan and Brooklyn.

This piece pays tribute to Leica's M9 digital rangefinder camera, released in 2009.
"I'm rather proud of this build, especially given the short development time," McVeigh writes. "The only regret I have is that there aren't any curved slopes in nougat/medium dark flesh, as it's a much better match for the actual color of the M9."

WASHINGTON, D.C. (Thursday, June 23, 2011) - Biotechnology Industry Organization (BIO) President and CEO Jim Greenwood released the following statement on the passage of The Leahy-Smith America Invents Act, H.R. 1249, by the House of Representatives:
"Small biotechnology companies rely heavily on their patents to attract investment to fund the lengthy and expensive research and development process necessary to bring breakthrough medical therapies and other products to patients and consumers. Strong intellectual property protection is critical for these companies.
"The Leahy-Smith America Invents Act will bring our patent system into the 21st century. The improvements made by the bill will benefit all sectors of the national economy by enhancing patent quality and the efficiency, objectivity, predictability and transparency of the U.S. patent system.
"BIO commends Judiciary Committee Chairman Lamar Smith (R-TX) for shepherding The Leahy-Smith America Invents Act through the House. By modernizing and strengthening America's patent system, this legislation will continue our nation's global leadership in innovation while driving job growth throughout our economy.
"BIO will continue to work with House and Senate leaders to ensure that final patent reform legislation addresses any remaining concerns and is enacted into law this year." Upcoming BIO Events
