Fancy That-------
"It's not about being a site fueled with expensive stuff," Joseph Einhorn says of his Web site, TheFancy.com, which he once described to a San Francisco Chronicle writer as a digital "catalog of everything in the world." To be clear, The Fancy has plenty of luxe offerings in its online marketplace, from hybrid Saint-Tropez boats to Hermès scarves to Bonsai Couture, but the site's extensive database of things is largely fueled by a social experience, created by its 250,000 registered users.
Let François-Henri Pinault, one of the site's board members and investors (along with the likes of Twitter creator Jack Dorsey and Facebook co-founder Chris Hughes), explain: "[It] is the best place to discover and curate beautiful objects and places from around the Web. It is a stunning combination of social networking and a visual magazine," he tells Style.com.
Today marks the next big step for The Fancy (launched in early 2011), in part due to the support from PPR. "We are taking a deep dive into commerce; we want to turn commerce on its head," Einhorn says. How it works: Any brand or merchant can bid to fill the demand for the items listed on the site, offering to sell as few as one of the items, or hundreds. The consumer will then get notified when a merchant or brand wants to sell them the items they 'Fancy.' With PPR's involvement, The Fancy has brought top-tier luxury brands like Yves Saint Laurent into the mix, with plenty more on the way. "We believe this is the next big wave in online commerce," Pinault says. (For good reason: According to the site, in the last week alone users have Fancy'd more than 1 million times.) How is it different from a top luxury-goods e-tailer like Net-a-Porter? "We want the Net-a-Porter convenience—you can buy all your favorite brands from one site in one place—but we want the buyers to be more like your friends," Einhorn says. For emerging designers and artists, there is good news here, too: "They can get a full-service merchant account, where they can list things for sale and monitor their orders, print shipping labels, do taxes, etc.," he says. "It's a top-of the-line merchant system."

Walton County law enforcement called him a "cold blooded killer" and now 27 year old Barry Davis is behind bars for the murder of a Panhandle couple missing since May.
At a news conference in Defuniak Springs on Wednesday, the family of one of the victims called Davis "evil."
It was a bittersweet day for them. A step towards justice, certainly; but the affidavit paints a picture of Davis as a man who was out for money, taking two lives in the process.
"Davis is a cold blooded, pre-meditated, calculated, killer," said Sheriff Mike Adkinson.
Davis was arrested Wednesday morning for the murder of Panhandle couple Heidi Rhodes and John Gregory Hughes.
"He has a history of violence and has made no uncertain terms about his willingness to use violence to achieve his ends," said Adkinson.
Davis and Hughes met in jail, according to investigators.
In May of last year, Davis claimed to have been hired by Hughes to manage his properties. He said he last saw the couple on May 7th.
A missing person investigation would start a month later.
With Davis as a person of interest, it was an eye witness testimony outlining how Davis murdered the couple for money that led to his arrest.
The affidavit alleges Davis beat and strangled the couple before drowning them in the tub at Hughes' Grayton Beach home. It goes on to say he admitted to dismembering the bodies, burning them and seeking help in disposing of the ashes.
Their bodies have been located, but State Attorney, Bill Eddins, said they have plenty to prosecute Davis.
"We will have a committee to view the aggravating and mitigating circumstances to determine whether or not it's appropriate to seek the death penalty," said Eddins.
It's perhaps a bittersweet day for Hughes family, who is seeking justice for their loved ones.
"In our opinion, Davis is a dangerous person and he is an evil individual," said Susan Hughes, Hughes' cousin.
Sheriff Mike Adkinson vowed justice will be served.
"I think Davis is under the illusion that he's smarter than the rest of us and as such he's going to beat us at court, but I can assure you he's got another thing coming," he said.
Davis will make his first appearance on Thursday and has requested a speedy trial that could take place within 60 days.

Sutton man Matthew Wood killed in Nine Elms helicopter crash
9:42pm Wednesday 16th January 2013 in News
The second person killed in this morning's helicopter crash in Vauxhall is believed to be a man from Sutton.
Police have said they believe the man killed in the crash is Matthew Wood, 39, from Sutton.
Mr Wood is understood to have been on the ground walking to work when the helicopter hit a crane on St George Wharf Tower, in Vauxhall, amid heavy fog.
It cartwheeled out of the sky, smashed into two cars as it hit the ground and exploded into flames.
Helicopter pilot Peter Barnes also died in the crash.
Police said next of kin of both men had been informed and family liaison officers are with their families.
Two office buildings, five cars and two motorbikes were damaged in the crash shortly before 8am this morning.
Twelve people were injured. Five are in hospital, including one with a broken leg, and seven were treated at the scene.

GRAPEVINE, Texas (AP) — An American Airlines plane chartered by the Miami Dolphins clipped a parked plane as it prepared to take off from Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport.
Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Lynn Lunsford says no one was hurt but both American Airlines jets were damaged in the incident early Thursday.
American Airlines spokeswoman Andrea Huguely (HEWG'-lee) says the winglet of a Boeing 767 clipped the tail of an empty MD-80. The incident happened in a non-operational area where the airline provides charter service.
Both jets were taken out of service and the incident is under investigation.
She says a replacement American Airlines jet delivered the Dolphins to Miami around 7:30 a.m. EDT Thursday.
The Dolphins lost to the Dallas Cowboys 30-13 in their preseason finale Wednesday night.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (WKOW) -- The U.S. economy added 236,000 jobs in February and the national unemployment rate fell from 7.9% to 7.7% in January, the lowest it's been in four years.
The February jobs report came out Friday morning and provided several encouraging details: Job growth has averaged more than 200,000 a month since November, wages increased and the job gains were broad-based, led by the most construction hiring in six years.
The unemployment rate had been stuck at 7.8 percent or above since September. The rate declined last month because the number of unemployed fell 300,000 to just over 12 million, the fewest since December 2008.
The jobs report shows more than half the decline occurred because 170,000 unemployed people found jobs, while an additional 130,000 stopped looking for work. People who aren't looking for jobs aren't counted as unemployed.
Job gains in January were downgraded from initial estimates, from 157,000 added to 119,000. However, December hiring was a little stronger than first thought, with 219,000 jobs added instead of the 196,000 originally estimated.
Improved car sales and a steady housing recovery are spurring more hiring, which some economists think could trigger more consumer spending and stronger economic growth.

Many side streets are still covered in a sheet of ice and this last storm has the city thinking twice about future snow removal tactics.
This week, the Mayor ordered Public Works crews to spread more sand and salt in hopes of melting icy roads.
"Well I think they look a little better but I think they need to sand them a little more once they are icy," resident Kathy Marez said.
Side streets have slabs of ice still inches thick, causing headaches for drivers and people like Marez who's parked car was hit and left damaged because of the slick roads.
Right now, the city spreads sand behind the trucks when they first plow but officials say that could change.
"In the future we will also consider spreading salt on residential streets the time of the initial plowing operation," Mayor Chris Beutler said.
Scott Opfer with Public Works and Utilities says the additional salt would cost between 15 and 20 thousand for each major storm. He says the money is within the city budget.
They'll also continue to bring in extra plows if needed to help with residential streets, like they did with this storm. About 15 to 20 private contractors were hired in addition to the 90 pieces of snow removal equipment the city already has.
"That same group of 90 people and pieces of equipment are the same 90 people that have to do residential streets," Opfer said. "So we can't do them both at the same time."
The Mayor urged the public to stay informed on City snow operations and parking bans and to keep parked cars off the streets to help crews remove snow more quickly and thoroughly.
Information is available at lincoln.ne.gov (keyword: snow) or from the Snow Center at 402-441-7644. Residents can sign up on the website to be notified of snow operations through RSS feeds. They also can sign up to be notified through Twitter at twitter.com/lincolnsnow.

CATEGORIES Documentary, Drama, Foreign Language, Independent, Thrillers, New on DVD, The Weinstein Co., Cinematical Indie, DVDs, CinematicalThe biggest indie release this week is Michael Moore's Sicko, which we've already covered extensively. I admit to a blind spot regarding Moore -- I think he's sincere in wanting to change things for the better, but his methods and approach drive me nuts -- so I'll just note that The Weinstein Co. DVD is filled with supplemental features and move on to less publicized films.
Just as controversial in its own way, Bruno Dumont's Flanders (pictured) debuted at Cannes last year, sparking passionate response, mainly in a negative vein. Our own James Rocchi called it "slow, turgid, bleak and brutal ... watching Dumont try and craft allegories and deeper meanings out of the petty interactions of his thinly-crafted characters and their meaningless actions and cruelties is a bitter experience." Other critics liked it much more, though, so I remain stubbornly intrigued. The DVD from Koch Releasing appears to be bare bones.
I'm also curious about Pretty Things (Les Jolies Choses) because it features Marion Cotillard in a dual role as "a goody-goody and her evil twin." Variety further described the film as "a blistering music-biz romp." Cotillard made a huge splash as Edith Piaf in La Vie en Rose this year. I'd love to give this action thriller a spin. The DVD, also from Koch Releasing, is likewise without supplemental features.
Blame It on Fidel follows a nine-year-old girl trying to make sense of a world gone mad: Europe in the early 1970s as her parents suddenly become politically active, throwing her life into turmoil. The movie slipped completely under my radar, but it received very positive reviews when it was released earlier this year. Koch Releasing's DVD includes a "making of" feature, behind the scenes segments, and deleted scenes presented by director Julie Gavras.

The federal government's five year program extending unemployment benefits, will run out Saturday, leaving millions out of work and without an unemployment check.
The plan was not extended in the new budget signed by President Obama.
The Senate is working on a bill that would restore the benefits, but that bill won't be brought up until lawmakers return to work after the new year.
Jawanna McDonald lost her job at a grocery store last May. On Thursday, she picked up her last unemployment check.
"This is very important, especially when it was the only income that I had," said McDonald. McDonald joins 1.3 million out-of-work Americans whose benefits stop Saturday. The budget Congress just passed did not renew unemployment checks for people who have been out of work for more than six months."To just cut somebody's unemployment off, you know, for whatever reason they see fit. I really don't agree with that," said McDonald. When lawmakers return to Washington, the Senate is expected to vote on extending benefits for three months. House Republicans are willing to discuss an extension, if there is a way to pay for it.
"These individuals spend what they get in unemployment benefits. They spend them in their local communities. It helps keep the economic engine turning," said Christine Owens from the National Employment Law Project.
With no safety net, McDonald will have to put her plans for more job training on hold, while she looks for work.
"I have to push my schooling off to the side for the moment, just to maintain some employment," said McDonald.
She is back at the unemployment office, updating her resume. She's optimistic about a recent job interview.
Jobless benefits average about $300 a week.
The Congressional Budget Office said extending long-term unemployment benefits through 2014 would cost $19 billion.

Marathon ten-hour boot scoot by Helston line dancers
3:00pm Monday 19th November 2012 in Helston By Greg Fountain, Ex-Reporter/Photographer
Helston charity line-dancers boot-scooted their way to fundraising success in aid of Children's Hospice South West recently.
The Line Dance Dance Marathon was held at the Goldolphin Club and raised just over £800.
A Chance to Dance line dancers took the floor for ten whole hours, from 12pm to 10pm, alongside cake, bric-a-brac and jeweller's stalls for the spectators.
Wyn Groombridge, from A Chance to Dance, said: "Merv and I would like to personally thanks all our line dancers, the Godolphin Club and everyone who sponsored us for making our charity line dance such a success."
The club meets on Monday evenings at the Godolphin Club in Helston from 6.45pm and Wednesday evenings in Carleen Village Hall at the same time.

As you and your loved one begin the Alzheimer's journey, we know that the options and services and programs can seem a little overwhelming. We've put together the most common questions we get in the FAQs below but, as always, please do not hesitate to contact us with further questions. We're here to help!
Questions about Alzheimer's disease
What is dementia?
Dementia is a syndrome (set of symptoms) characterized by a gradual decline in mental abilities, such as memory, personality, behavior and thought. Dementia symptoms can be caused by any number of different diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and Vascular Dementia. When a person exhibits signs of dementia, further medical evaluation is warranted to distinguish what type of dementia he/she may be experiencing, as well as to rule out potentially treatable/reversible causes of cognitive decline, such as vitamin deficiency, thyroid imbalance or depression.
What is Alzheimer's disease?
Alzheimer's disease is one condition that causes dementia. Decline in short-term memroy is commonly an early symptom, with loss of other mental abilities, such as judgement, decision-making ability, self-control, insight and language skills increasing over time. Alzheimer's disease is a physical disease process, characterized by plaques and tangles in the brain of the affected person. Current treatments may delay the progression of symptoms, but do not stop or reverse the underlying disease process.
What are some of the early signs that someone may be experiencing Alzheimer's disease or another form of dementia?
Some early warning signs of Alzheimer's disease include:
Memory loss, particularly for recent events;
Difficulty with complex tasks that were once routine, such as managing finances;
Personality changes;
Changes in language skills, such as difficulty in finding the right word when speaking.
Individuals with early-stage dementia or Alzheimer's disease often appear 'normal' at first, but their deficits may interfere with their ability to perform certain tasks and follow daily routines.
What are common symptoms as the disease progresses?
Over time, dementia symptoms become more severe, and the person becomes more dependent upon a caregiver for assistance with activities of daily living.
Memory impairment becomes more pronounced, and the person may experience disorientation to place and/or time.
Increasing language difficulties, impaired ability to perform skilled movement, loss of inhibition and restlessness often occur.
Behavioral changes and/or agitation may take place.
Over time, physical manifestations, such as difficulty with coordinating movements and difficulty swallowing, occur.
What can people living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementia do to improve quality of life?
There are many things that people with dementia can do to enhance their daily lives. Programs and services exist to help the affected individual find opportunities for enjoyment, mental activity and social connection. Caregiver services can be invaluable to family members seeking information, support, resources and respite. For more information, contact the Long Island Alzheimer's Foundation.

Huntsville Utilities are working to restore power after several small outages across Madison County and one large outage early Tuesday morning.
The larger outage is affecting south Huntsville in the area of Challenger Elementary and Middle Schools. Areas south of Hobbs Road around Green Cove and Chaney Thompson Roads are affected. Crews are working to restore power quickly.
Challenger Elementary and Middle Schools and Farley Elementary School are currently without power.
Utilities said that the very cold temperatures are causing a high demand on the system, leading to these outages. Crews are ready to respond quickly and are working to restore each outage as quickly and safely as they can.
Huntsville Utilities reminds customers to wait about 15 minutes before starting your heating system again after your power is restored, thereby allowing crews to maintain stability across the system and reducing the possibility of more outages.
If you have an outage or service emergency, call 256-53LIGHT (4448).
Athens Utilities are also asking all customers to reduce power to
non-essential consumption. This will help prevent additional outages.
At this
time, Limestone County has scattered outages and about 4,000 customers out of
power in the Clements area. Athens Utilities said these customers should have
power sometime before 9:30 a.m. Authorities said the Clements substation went
down due to an insulator malfunction due to so many currents running through.

Penn State assistant Mike McQueary will not coach this weekend after receiving multiple threats ahead of the Nittany Lions matchup with Nebraska. McQueary will not be at Saturdays game at all, staying away from the stadium completely instead of coaching from the press box as some had hypothesized he would.
The statement from Penn State is below.
Due to multiple threats made against Assistant Coach Mike McQueary, the University has decided it would be in the best interest of all for Assistant Coach McQueary not to be in attendance at Saturday's Nebraska game.
McQueary has come under fire for failing to call police after allegedly witnessing Jerry Sandusky rape a young child in the shower in the Penn State locker room in 2002. McQueary was a graduate assistant at the time and told head coach Joe Paterno of the incident the next day, after consulting with his father.
It remains unclear what McQueary's role with the team will be going forward.

Missing man wanted for stealing cash from family home is found
11:15am Wednesday 7th May 2014 in News
A MAN who was wanted by police for the suspected theft of cash from his family home in Clacton has been found in Chelmsford.
Daniel O'Brien left his home on Cambridge Road last Thursday.
It is alleged that he took about £800 from inside the property.
A spokesman for Essex Police said: "The 43-year-old man turned up at a residential address on Wood Street in Chelmsford shortly before 1am on Wednesday in a confused and disorientated state.
"As a result, he was taken to Broomfield Hospital to be medically-examined.
"He is currently in a stable condition, but once he is fit to be discharged he will then be interviewed by officers regarding his disappearance and the alleged theft of money from his home."
Police previously said O'Brien, who had been reported missing by his partner, had been suffering from depression.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WRCB-TV) - It was around 1:30 on the afternoon of Friday, September 30th at the Oakwood Community Church on Webb Road off Highway 58. A group of what are thought to be older teenagers approached the man who would become our victim. They asked him for a cigarette. He did not have one, but that is not what they were after, anyway.
One suspect grabbed him, the other pulled a gun. They demanded his wallet, punched him in the mouth and hit in the head with the handgun. They hit him so hard, in fact, the gun fired. The thugs knocked the elderly man to the ground, grabbed the victim's wallet, then they all ran away.
This edition of Crime Stoppers is a little different in the sense that we are totally dependant on you, what you know and what you may have heard around the neighborhood. There is no surveillance video of the crime, no pictures of the suspects, but thanks to our victim, we do know what they look like.
We are looking for a total of 4 people: 2 black males between 17 and 20-years old; each around 5'7" and 2 black females also around 5'7", both with heavy builds. On this particular Friday afternoon, one of the girls was wearing a purple shirt.
If you know anything about this crime, you could get yourself up to a thousand dollars in free cash. Your identity will be kept secret, even from the police. Pick up the phone and call Crime Stoppers at 698-3333.

Hong Kong Kowloon Diamond Hill Nan Lian Garden Lunar Reflection Terrace Blue Pond Pavilion of Chinese Pagoda
Nan Lian Garden is situated at Diamond Hill of Kowloon, taking in the full view of southeast Kowloon. The Garden and the Chi Lin Nunnery to its north together back into the sprawling northern mountain range. Hammer Hill Road borders the Garden on the east, Lung Cheung Road on the south, and Hollywood Plaza, a large shopping mall, on its west. The Garden opens to the west. An MTR station is just opposite the Main Gate.
The Garden is a designated public park, with an area of 35,000 square metres. It was designed and built by the Chi Lin Nunnery, entrusted by the Government, and is opened to the public in November 2006. It is currently managed by the Chi Lin Nunnery, also entrusted by the Government.
The Garden is built in the classical style of the Tang Dynasty (618 AD to 907 AD), on the blue print of Jiangshouju, the only Tang landscape garden the original layout of which can still be placed and traced today, and the shape of which bears a significant resemblance to the Garden site. Hills and rocks, waters, plants and timber structures are built and arranged according to classical Tang style and rules, accommodating the local environment, and the best view of the sprawling mountain range to the north is taken as the seamless backdrop.
The Garden is a Tang garden built in modern times, its architecture and landscaping reminiscent of nature and conducive towards a sense of serenity and tranquility, an ambience in which visitors may enjoy a moment of leisure and peace of mind, whilst reflecting on the profound richness of classical Chinese culture, right in the midst of the urban city hustle and bustle. It is hoped this will help promote the knowledge of and interest in classical Chinese culture.
Lunar Reflection Terrace
Viewed from the Lunar Reflection Terrace, the view of the Song Cha Xie across the pond, the variegated colors and texture of the foliage around, and the multi-layers of shades of light and dark green of Indian almond and sago trees on the opposite shores on the foreground, rising up to deep green of pines, noble bottles and figs on the background and up to the tree clusters in the billowing mountains provides endless interest. The scenery is enchanting, uncontainable beyond the physical boundaries of the Garden.
Blue Pond
The Blue Pond is a stretch of calm water on which floats the reflection of the surrounding scenery: the trees, the hills, the pavilions and the passing moon in the evening. In the water other colours gleam and glitter: the red, the gold, the silver and pearl of the golden carps.
Viewed from the Lunar Reflection Terrace, or from the cedar wood Pavilion of Chinese Pagoda, the view of the Song Cha Xie across the pond, the variegated colors and texture of the foliage around, and the multi-layers of shades of light and dark green of Indian Almond and sago trees on the opposite shores on the foreground, rising up to deep green of pines, noble bottles and figs on the background and up to the tree clusters in the billowing mountains provides endless interest. The scenery is enchanting, uncontainable beyond the physical boundaries of the Garden.
The clarity and serenity of the water in the Blue Pond reminds one of the ideals in Chinese culture. The Daoist sage, Laozi, said, "Superior virtue is like water." Clarity of vision and serenity of spirit are the marks of the truly wise.
Even the vision and spirit of the truly wise are appreciative of details that adorn our lives, just as the Islets of the Turtle and, the Crane add interest to the peaceful water world, seemingly engaging in a continuous race with the flipping carps towards the Islet of Sago, and the magical mythical Penglai.
The Pavilion of Chinese Pagoda
The Pavilion of Chinese Pagoda sits at the back of the terrace. Looking out to the terrace and beyond, the beautiful scenery surrounding the Blue Pond fills the eyes and the mind. Flanking on the two sides are pagoda trees and elms and the seeping scent of cedar wood with which the pavilion is built. Take a pause, and be refreshed.

Overview and History
Hong Kong sits on the south coast of China, on the Pearl River Delta. It's got a population of more than seven million people and is one of the most densely populated places on earth. It also appears to be putting into place the template for population management, which cities around the world will be implementing as soon as they can afford it. More on that later.
Archaeological evidence dates human activity beneath present-day Hong Kong back to the stone age. The area was first settled by people from the mainland during the Han dynasty, around the beginning of the common era (the P.C. term for when B.C. changed to A.D. Whoa!)
For hundreds of years, Hong Kong was a small fishing community and haven for travelers, with a few pirates here and there. Then whitey showed up.
Western influence reached China at the beginning of the 15th century, when all those great explorers in boats were cruising for loot in strange and mysterious places. Tea and silk were the commodities connecting eastern Europe to China, and Hong Kong was known as a safe harbor through which to pass. When you're carrying the Queen's tea, it's especially important to avoid ARRRRRRguments with pirates. Hyuk hyuk hyuk.
Seriously folks -- in the eighteenth century Britain was doing a booming business with China, offering Indian opium to balance their extensive purchases of fine porcelains and everything else. The opium was ordained to be for medicinal purposes only, of course.
Well, as you may imagine, the Chinese got sick of opium fiends junking up the place, so they attempted to stop the British suppliers, to no avail. The Opium Wars resulted and ended with China ceding Hong Kong to the British, in fear of their massive naval power. This took place in the year 1841.
Colonization soon followed, Hong Kong shot up in value as an international port, and its population increased dramatically. In 1898 Britain acquired additional territories on a 99 year lease -- expiring in 1997. Does that year sound familiar? Read on.
In the 20th century Hong Kong changed hands several times. The British surrendered it to Japan during World War Two, then took it back after Japan's defeat, then gave it to China later. Immediately following the war, Hong Kong served as a safe haven for hundreds of thousands of Chinese refugees, while the Chinese National Government was losing its civil war against communist leadership.
The population of Hong Kong exploded as corporations seeking to escape Chinese isolationism arrived and set up shop. Cheap labor in the textile and manufacturing industries steadily built up the economy and ensured foreign investment. By the end of the 20th century Hong Kong had become a financial mammoth offering banking services to the world.
In 1997 Hong Kong returned to Chinese rule with a few stipulations in place to guarantee its economic autonomy, as much as possible. The phrase "one country, two systems" was coined by the Chinese to describe the relationship between the mainland and Hong Kong.
Getting There
Well, where do you want to get to from the Hong Kong International Airport? There are ferries servicing six mainland ports in the Pearl River Delta Region. Airport Express Railway connects directly to downtown Hong Kong, and it has been rated the best airport in the world multiple times.
The Airport Express Railway will get you into Hong Kong in about an hour, for $100. Public buses cost $10 and take a little longer. For direct service to your hotel you can take one of the hotel's private buses ($120+) or a taxi ($300+). As you can see, waiting time is optional for those who can afford it.
Here's a little blurb on travel times, with further information for access to nearby cities (cross-boundary transport).
Grab an Octopus card when you arrive. Octopus is the world's first electronic ticket-fare card system and the Hong Kong public transportation system is the world leader in people-moving. 90% of Hong Kongers get around on public transportation.
Octopus covers the Airport Rail line, buses, ferries, the rapid-transit MTR network, supermarkets, fast food outlets, phone booths... It's how to get around the cashless economy.
Nevermind the microchip built into it, you'll get used to having one of those on you at all times -- and soon they'll be internal! What do I mean? Many schools in Hong Kong even use the Octopus card to check attendance, because you read the card's data with an external scanner from a distance. This will the global norm soon. What if that chip is installed in your body? It's in the works baby!
The hilly Hong Kong terrain also demands some special modes of transportation. If you've been to Pittsburgh, you may have some idea of how cool it is to ride a cable car up the side of a mountain, overlooking a majestic harbor and city. Multiply that by about ten thousand and you've got Hong Kong: vertical-travel trams, moving sidewalks, and the world's longest outdoor escalator system.
People and Culture
The local currency is the Hong Kong dollar (HKD) which is pegged to the U.S. dollar. Official languages are Chinese and English. You're on your own, baby! Dive into the swarming, throbbing, pulsing, crawling and teeming mix!
Things to do & Recommendations
The Peak Tower and its shopping Galleria are the biggest tourist attraction in Hong Kong so don't miss it.
Cool off in the Kowloon Park public indoor swimming pool!
After that, go see what's happening at the Hong Kong Fringe Club, a non-profit organisation which puts together exhibitions for international artists and performers.
Organize sports fans flock to the Hong Kong Stadium, but there's good news for disorganized sportistas too -- Mountain biking is now legal in the parks! Have at it, baby!
All this excitement is going to make you hungry. Springtime is traditionally the time to celebrate seafood, summer is for fruits, and winter steams with hot pot soups to keep you warm.
The best thing to do is go and find some dim sum. Dozens of plates of tasty small items, sort of like sushi but it's cooked, and the varieties are endless.
Since you won't be able to walk down the street without complete and total sensory overload, I'll just whap in the Hong Kong tourist board's guide to dining and leave you to your intuition.
Good luck, take it slow and above all -- DON'T SPIT OUT YOUR CHEWING GUM ON THE SIDEWALK. Gum is legal but there's a $500 fine for intentional littering. Enjoy!

Even before Hurricane Irene, Prabal Gurung had been thinking about power—specifically, girl power. It probably has something to do with all that Liz Phair he's been listening to, as well as the images of an aggressive female soccer player and Nobuyoshi Araki's bondage photographs on his mood board.
And yet, because Gurung is a designer in the tradition of Bill Blass, ladylike touches of mesh and netting pop up throughout his high-contrast black, white, and purple palette. There's also, pardon the pun, shades of Peggy Guggenheim, another example of a strong woman, in his first sunglasses collection collaboration with Linda Farrow.

We have less control than we think over who we fall in love with. Dinner With Friends meets La Cage aux Folles in this fanciful gender-bending soufflé about a pair of ex-spouses and their new mates. When the four get together for the first time in years, a delightful mess of romantic complications ensues. Terri Hanauer directs this world premiere of The Way You Look Tonight, which was written by Peter Lefcourt (who won an Emmy for his writing on Cagney & Lacey). Playing a cameo role and acting as catalyst to some of the action is ... a pair of Fluevog shoes. Because everyone knows you can never underestimate the power of cool shoes when it comes to matters of the heart. Learn More

This play was an entertaining two hours with some very funny spots. It takes a few minutes to get used to the Irish accents. The plot does need some revising and tightening up. But, overall, a worthwhile play to see.

GO. Excellent acting, directing, staging. Like watching a really good dark Irish thriller film. Touching in its way, as well. Accents weren't an issue for us at all, but an elderly gal in front of us remarked on it a few times (a little...continued

I did not like this play. Too many four letter words, some simulated violence on stage, are not for me. Most people are fascinated with gangsters in plays and movies - and that is the reason the public will like this play. I liked Annapurna...continued

Lionel Messi was forced to leave Barcelona's match against Almeria on Saturday in the 28th minute after apparently tweaking his hamstring muscle just a few minutes after putting his team in the lead. It wasn't immediately clear what happened to the Argentinean striker but he was beginning to massage his hamstring as he made his way off the pitch.
Messi had already imposed himself upon the match seven minutes earlier when he played an excellent give and go with Pedro before rocketing a shot off the post and past Almeria's goalkeeper Esteban to put Barca ahead 1-0.
Midfielder Xavi Hernandez came off the bench in place of Messi as Cesc Fábregas slid forward into the false nine role at the top of the Barcelona attack.

Special to The Leader
Lutcher Theater
Laser Artist, Tim Walsh brings his famous Laser Spectacles to downtown Orange on Friday, March 15, as area residents celebrate spring break and welcome the Bassmaster Elite Series Sabine River Challenge to Orange, Texas.
The one-hour long Laser Spectacles will begin at 8 p.m., Friday and will combine lasers, fog, and projections with the music of Pink Floyd and Queen creating an outdoor event not to be missed.
Using lasers, large-screen projections, and assorted lighting techniques, Laser Spectacles will set the stage for the newest performing art form: visual music. The show will take place in the Lutcher Theater parking lot and patrons are encouraged to bring their lawn chairs to enjoy the show.
A laser light show is not just a pile of expensive hardware operated by a technician. It is the end result of the "laserist" using the equipment, along with an acute visual sense and a highly developed aural sense, to create artistic entertainment in which "synaesthesia," the coordination of sight with sound, occurs. Timothy Walsh is a multi-faceted artist with the vision to attempt this goal of synaesthesia. His aim is to create shows in which the audience is emotionally involved; and aided by his background, training and expertise, he is constantly striving to achieve this. Not only does he create beautiful images, he choreographs them to musical accompaniment, working to create a whole that is greater than the sum of the parts.
Food vendors from Art in the Park scheduled for Saturday, March 16 in Stark Park will be available for snacks before and during the Laser Spectacles performance. Audiences are encouraged to park in the Orange Public Library parking lot and in Lamar State College Orange parking areas. Streets directly around the Lutcher Theater parking lot will be blocked off for seating and light control. No ice chests will be allowed.
Patrons attending Laser Spectacles will be given tickets upon entering the parking lot registering them to win seats to the Lutcher's March 18 presentation of "One Night of Queen" performed by Gary Mullen and the Works.
Immediately following the performance, the audience is encouraged to return to the Orange County Riverfront Festival to enjoy food, festivities and carnival rides.
The Lutcher Theater for the Performing Arts is located at 707 Main, Orange, Texas.

FORT COLLINS - Coloradoan reporter Trevor Hughes bought marijuana for the first time - and with his boss' money to boot.
Trevor bought the legal pot from a Denver retail store for a story that the Fort Collins Coloradoan will be publishing later this week.
Buying the marijuana raised complications because Trevor works for a company based in another part of the country, where marijuana remains illegal. And buying the marijuana in Colorado still technically remains a federal crime.
See what it's like to buy marijuana, and how Trevor met his boss' requirements for staying (mostly) legal.

I used my Native5 to cut up a cardboard banana crate so that it would fit in the recycling bin. Fun!
Went to work this morning and opened several other packages with my SB Caly. Come midday, tried to slice a tomato and failed. Now the blade won't even cut straight through paper. The original edge has gone and I have a dulled blade.
So transferred the knife to my left pocket where I also keep my phone. Whilst seated at my desk, I got a call on the mobile. Stretched my left leg and and my left arm dived into my pocket to grab the phone. Felt a sharp sting close to my knuckles and had to yank my hand back. Whilst my hand was diving into my pocket, the SB Caly blade with its tip up in the handle has bitten the skin above my pinky. It was not a deep cut but the blade drew first blood. Mine that is.
Of all the stupid things that can happen, being cut by a folded blade, feel very embarrassed right now.

I used my Ladybug Salt to open up a package that came in the mail (Some paracord), used my Delica 4 to open a popsicle for my mom, also used both to cut some of the paracord, Ladybug Salt broke down some drink boxes, and a cardboard box, yesterday I used my ladybug to cut down some dead weeds that where in the way after I dug up a PVC pipe I had buried 2 years ago to allow water to drain out of the sunflower row. (It was full of mud),..... Oh and the occasional cutting of paper.

it's funny the different perspectives....we all are frickin' estatic that McFat is gone. ....I ventured over to some Colts forums and the Indy fans are really excited to have Booger, even for a 2nd rounder
Not to bring down anyone's emotions, but Ryan Leaf was a first round draft pick, and well.... It's hard to tell right now what that draft pick will bring, but trading McFarland for a second round draft pick for the future is a good deal.
