... cuz I'm 60 feet tall.
These hefty boots weigh in at 2.2 lbs each which means my calves are getting quite the workout every time I slip them on! They feature laces underneath the jungle of silver buckles and straps. Fortunately, I don't have to tie myself into these statement death traps- a convenient zipper gives me easy access in and out. The platforms are 6 inches at highest, but since I'm so unbelievably short, I only stand 5 foot 8 when I've got them on!

Ok Ifeel kind of guilty about this but I found a pair just like these online and bought them from Hot Topic, except my buckles aren't on both sides like urs. Mine are just on the outside of the boots. Plus mine aren't patent leather. They look so cute on you I had to try them out for myself and I hope you'll see it has a compliment not a slam. I wore mine with leopard and a sparkly gold shoulder bag to kinda down play the gotch vibe, but of course it didn;t look as good as ur outfit. I wish I could give you the heart, but I already used it :(
I love the boots! I purchased a pair sometime last year from Hot Topic except they are pink and black stitching without the buckles. Those are just beastly though! (In a good way!)
I love your fashion sense, it's really wearable and I could see myself in a lot of the outfits you showcase.
those boots
AMAZING boots!
Love your boots!

Suncorp Group (SUN)PUBLISHED: 14 May 2012 08:36:48 | UPDATED: 15 May 2012 15:50:06PRINT EDITION: 14 May 2012
Brendon Lau
Morgan Stanley has cut $1 off its price target on Suncorp Group, settling at $8 a share and reiterates its "equal-weight" recommendation on the stock as it believes the business is facing a number of headwinds.
The broker notes there is a likely delay in insurance-margin growth due to higher catastrophic event budgets, rising re-insurance rates and lower investment yields.
Suncorp's motor insurance business is also likely to face pressure due to lower customer retention rates and higher proportion of switching customers.
Further, turning around its life insurance business is a two-to-three-year initiative; while core bank margins are being squeezed by the high cost of deposits. Morgan Stanley has cut second half 2011-12 margin for the core bank operations by 4 basis points to 182 basis points.

The Briarcliff Union Free School District has received the community's approval for a bond for a capital project with 363 votes to 42 votes.
The vote, which ultimately gives the green light to address mandatory field work and asbestos removal, was held at Todd Elementary School from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 21. More than 400 residents braved a snowstorm that sent the district's students home by 11:30 a.m. to cast their vote.
The Board of Education—Jennifer Rosen, Dina Brantman, Michael Haberman, Jonathan Satran, and Paul Wasserman—issued the following statement:
"The Board of Education would like to thank the community for giving its approval to allow the District to undertake a capital project that includes: the remediation and refurbishment of the practice field on the Briarcliff Middle/High School campus; purchasing land needed to complete the practice field project; removing asbestos at Todd Elementary School, and issuing bonds to finance these projects. We appreciate your ongoing support of our schools."
The total cost of the project is projected to be $2,275,966. As the district has approximately $750,966 left in the reserve established in 2010 to help offset the cost of the field remediation, the district needed the approval to bond $1,525,000, which will be paid back over 10 years.
The repayment of the interest and principal is estimated to increase the total tax levy by approximately 0.45 percent each year, beginning in 2015-2016.
"Since our Remedial Action Work Plan was approved by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) over a year ago, the District has been in regular contact with involved state agencies to keep the process moving forward so that our students and community can benefit from the full complement of fields available in Briarcliff," Superintendent of Schools James Kaishian said.
"A bond issue is the most responsible option to fund this project – it minimizes the impact it will have on our budget and will not compromise our ability to support current and future programmatic needs. Significant reserve monies are already being used to offset the total cost," he added.
In accordance with a NYSDEC consent order, the district is legally obligated to conduct the field work--regardless of the outcome of yesterday's vote. If the proposed capital project and bond were not approved by the community, the district would have been required to undertake the project, leaving the entire $1,525,000 tab on its 2014-2015 school budget.
For more information about the capital project and the bond, click here.
Residents can find more information about the vote on the Briarcliff Manor School District website at www.briarcliffschools.org under the Athletic Fields Restoration icon on the homepage. Residents may also ask questions by contacting Assistant Superintendent for Finance and Operations Stuart Mattey at 941-8880 ext. 4016 or by emailing him at email@example.com.

Picked this one up at Biergarten Liquors in Jenks today...
Pours an effervescent & murky apricot with a finger of cream colored head. Ohhh now I see it's bottle conditioned... Great head retention, usually a big bugaboo for this brewery, stays murky & pretty good lacing
S: Bready & fruitty, plus wet grain
T: Follows the nose, golden delicious apple & pear flavor, plus a touch of honeysuckle up front. Slight caramel flavor trickles through the fruittyness. some dryness & slight grainyness as well once warm. Finishes fruity, dry with some caramel flavor
Medium bodied, slight carbonation, pretty good balance
Great drinkability, not a perfect Vienna lager, but acquits itself very well. This will go into the fall rotation when ever I can pick this up. was pleasantly suprised by this. This was better than most of the O'Fests/Viennas I've had this fall

Despite the name, BA has sense enough not to call this beer a Märzen but rather a Vienna Lager. Choc's cleverly named Choctoberfest put a smile on my face when I saw the bottle and it's brightly colored label at my local store, but once this brew made it's way into my bottle, and eventually my mouth, that smile quickly disappeared.
The look of the beer may be the one thing Choc got right on this one. It is dark and inviting, and despite the sweet smell you get, you could easily mistake a glass of this to be an actual malty Oktoberfest brew by appearance alone. The taste is what destroys this beer though, and that's a pretty important category in my book. The beer contains very little malt, or malt that one can really taste and decipher, and a whole lot of sweetness. With little to no bitterness, the brew actually tastes more like a sweetened ice tea than a Märzen or even a quality lager. This is the worst Choc beer that I've ever consumed. More bite and a lot less sweetness would go a long way towards improving this one.

12 oz. bottle tried 18 Jul 2009.
Poured in the 0.4 L Hutthurmer mug. Large fizzy off white head. Well carbonated. Clear dark amber color. Smell is sweet, almost syrupy. Starts lightly malty and sweet, quickly becoming astringent and unpleasantly bitter. Sort of tastes like bad iced tea. Medium body. Light alcohol.
Hope this was just a bad bottle/batch.

12oz bottle of the 2010 batch poured into a pilsner glass.
Dark gold to orange with a wisp of white head and it's quite cloudy for a lager.
Bready malt with some apple skins and strawberry from the fermentation and a hint of sulphur. A bit of spicy hop flavor too but the balance is definitely toward the malt with a sweeter than expected finish.
Some additional lagering time and better fermentation control would go a long way. I won't be picking up another bottle but it's decent enough for a hot summer afternoon spent watching some TV.

Poured a dark golden color. Smells like tart apples. Tastes like...tart apples, and a bit metallic. mouthfeel is good though, medium. overall, Its the same flavors that I get from most of the Choc line, that i dont like, tart apples and metal. I really want to love this brewery since its local, but havent found anything yet that I can get excited about....but I will keep searching...

1.73/5 rDev -48.8%
Appearance: Pours a clear, orange-amber body with a very thin, whitish head.
Smell: Here we go again. Displeasingly tart, vaguely fruity nose mixed in with some lightly toasted malts.
Taste: Ugh. Tart, infection-laden component nearly obscures the underlying malts and spicy hops. The tartness hangs on with an iron grip until the merciful finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: Pete's Place, along with Siletz and Northwoods is quickly becoming ingrained in my mind as brewery with infection issues. What a shame.

Pours a clear copper color with a small off-white head that quickly dissipates. Smells of sweet fruits like plums and apricots with some mild floral notes present. First sip is fresh and clean but like other beers from Pete's Place there is just not enough flavor present. The flavor that is there is good....just not enough of it. It is clean and refreshing but nothing special.

Thanks to Beertracker for another brew in my Okie-beer care package!
A-Hazy deep reddish orange copper body. Medium beige head with a creamy consistency. Head stuck around and left nice lacing.
S-Light, sweet caramel malt with just a hint of sour mash.
T-Sweet roasted caramel with a hint of sour apple. Rather unidimensional but flavourful nonetheless.
M-Medium-light body even bordering on light and a bit thin. Would like a bit more malt backbone to beef up the feel with this one. Light dryness in the finish.
D-Not my favorite style to begin with but save for the light mouthfeel this one has a nice sour tinged roasted caramel malt flavour...at least enough to hold my interest.

Thanks TheHand for this in a trade.
Appearance: Poured from a 12oz.bottle into a pint glass. Cloudy orange in color.
Smell: Very malty with some roasted grain.
Taste: A smooth drinking lager here. Some caramel malt makes an appearance. Also elements of roasted grains. Hops are tea like and the overall finish is sweet.
Mouthfeel: Smooth, crisp and refreshing.
Overall: This is a pretty solid Vienna lager. I wish more widely available lagers tasted this good.

It's that time of year again, and you can smell autumn in the air. This has always been my favorite time, made even better by one of my favorite local breweries rolling out their Munich Lager. This is a hazy light brown brew with a one-finger topping of off-white head. Retention is adequate, and a thin layer of bubble specked lacing is left behind. It actually mells earthy and hoppy up front with a good layer of sweet malt and caramel underneath it all which makes for a good combo. The taste is more mellow than the aroma, but still not bad. Hints of sweet malts, candy and a little spice exist. Some very mild fruitiness lurks down below everything. Carbonation is evident only after a good shake. This one goes down extra smooth secondary to it's light bodied mouth-feel. This is a good session beer to help you welcome in the season.

Received from TTU94. Nothing like what you would get at Oktoberfest but a nice beer non the less.
Cloudy, hazy color...looked more like a wheat beer with an auburn hue. Head was highly carbonated and bubbly and disipated rather quickly. Did leave some nice lacing though.
Smell is lite, sweet malt with no hops.
Taste is also light and a bit sweet, but there is some hop bitterness that gets through and gives the beer an unexpected balance. The beer feels "wet" so I think it would be good in the summer when your looking to quench your thirst and have a beer.
All in all a pretty good brew. Not sure if it is true to the style, but I'm not that snobby so bottoms up.

got this sixer in OK city. I'm not really sure if put to a test that I could tell the difference in a Vienna lager and an "American style" Marzen but I thought oktoberfest beers were called marzens but who cares about labels lets talk about beer.
This beer pours a cloudy brown color with a huge creamy head that leaves a ton of lace. The smell could almost be considerd a malt bomb. Super sweet malt character. Has an almost nutty flavor at times. The taste has almost too much malt sweetness to it for my liking. This beer has a nice smoothness to it most likely from the bottle conditioning. Not a bad beer. Of all the US made oktoberfest beers it reminds me most of St. Arnolds version. Nothing like the German versions but thats ok.

Between the 2 beers I have tried from Pete's place this one was the clear winner, the other beer being Choc original. It seemed to be a good single bottle beer, I tried one bottle right after eating, and was not that impessed, but I had another bottle while working on an art project, in which I had not eaten or had drunk anything for quite some time and was pretty blown away by the flavor of this local brew. The second time around was much better.

Thanks goes out to Beertracker for this brew.
Pours a cloudy dark orange color, nice carbonation, very nice thick creamy off-white head, tons of creamy sticky lacing follows. The nose is malty, slightly spicy, and a good dose of caramel. The taste is slightly sweet, malty, spicy, and some caramel. Medium body. Very drinkable, this is a very tasty Vienna Lager, would buy if it was available in my area, recommended.

Pours a dark orange, hazy from being unfiltered. Has a large tan head. Smells earthy. Taste is quite smooth, almost has a lemony, citrus like taste. A bit tart and metallic too. Almost has an ale like quality. Very unique for a lager. Good mouthfeel, carbonation is good. Quite drinkable too, I could drink several of these. Bonus points for being bottle conditioned. I don't think I've had a bottle conditioned lager before so this is pretty cool.

12 oz bottle into a pint glass
A: Thin head that disappeared before I could discern the color. No lacing at all. Reddish brown, hazy body.
S: Aroma was mostly caramel malt w/ some yeast present.
T: Heavy caramel taste, but a bit grainy. Had enough hops to keep it in balance. I had this a few days earlier on tap (in a cup though) & the malt was complemented by a strong ripe dark fruit flavor - but this was not the case with the bottle.
M: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation - but it caused a lively tingling sensation as if it here more heavily carbonated. Also had an odd tasting (can't place it) dry finish.
D: Overall not bad - I didn't expect much so I was very pleasantly surprised. Would make a fine session beer.

Pours hazy orangish copper with a thin head.
The smell is of caramel. A touch of vinegar. A touch of earthiness.
The taste is of caramel sweetness with some earthy hops. A touch of vinegar makes me wonder about the freshness of this sample...But, no freshness date is to be found.
It has a decent, medium body. Smooth.
Easy enough to drink. Would like to try in the fall and re-rate.
Thanks to beertracker, who I'd like to do another trade with in the fall, as I'd like to try this again when it's fresh as it has something to it...

Large creamy head head on a hazy brownish-amber beer.
Nice, rich aroma.
Flavor is pretty malty with just a hint of malt and caramel. Nice finish. Surprising hop bite.
On the negative side, I think this need more malty-caramel-maple notes.
Not a bad beer, but it is merely average compared to other Octoberfest beers.

This is another good brew from Pete's Place and I really cant decide if I like choc or chocotoberfest more. This beer has a very good amber/brown hazy appearance (since its unfiltered).The very large foamy head that leaves a good amount of lacing. I loved the texture of the head. The beer has a nice malty flavor which is followed by a nice touch of hops. Overall a very tasty brew.

Appearance : Pours a hazy golden color with a modest head that leaves some lacing
Smell: Caramel malt aroma, rather nice
Taste: Starts with caramel up front but the finish is hoppy and a bit grainy
Mouthfeel: Medium body and moderate carbonation
Drinkability: Not bad at all but I would prefer a less grainy finish
Thanks, beerhandy, for the opportunity

My first review.
A - nice amber with a 1 cm tan head when properly poured, dissapated
within seconds, and slighlty hazy.
S - i have a difficult time describing smell... i smell, grain and alcohol.
doesn't sound all that appealing, but it smelled good... i looked
forward to my first sip.
T - just sweet enough to balance the hops, nice "warm" toasty notes...
just a hint of something spicy and bitter when it gets to the back of my palate. much fuller flavor than the regular choc by my taste...
M - one reviewer mentioned there being little carbonation... the bottle I
i would not want to be any more carbonated. I thought it was
perfect. light-medium body with "warm" mouthfeel.
D - I plan on buying a few more!

Mostly I think this beer has suffered in the bottle some. It has low carbonation and that really effects the rest of the perception of this beer. So I only punished it in the mouthfeel as it still smells really good. Like sweet wort with a mince of german hops and a light touch of alcohol. The taste is how I prefer my Octoberfest beers, a little on the sweet side full of caramel and toasty flavors. Good stuff I think it would be better on tap.

|Raga Dolls
|Raga Dolls are: David Osborne (violin, guitar- pictured right) : Gary Norman (banjo) : Shannon Birchall (double bass) : George Butrumlis (piano-accordion) : Caroline Craig (vocals) : James Sherlock (guitar).
In the first part of the 20th century, salon ensembles proliferated throughout Europe and North America; small groups of musicians performing in a variety of locations, often hotels and tearooms. Some became the recording stars of their day: Albert Sandler, Edith Lorand and Dajos Bela, to name but three, led salon "orchestras" of just a few musicians, playing popular classics and modern light music.
Raga Dolls are helping to revive this all but lost tradition, though they are more akin to modern rock groups in that they include a large percentage of original material in their repertoire.

Avfuel is once again sponsoring one of the most popular attractions at EAA AirVenture: the Boeing B-17 Yankee Girl, owned by the Michigan-based Yankee Air Museum. While nearly 13,000 of the four-engine World War II bombers were built, only 10 of them remain flyable today.
FBO chain Avflight opened its new facility this week at Cherry Capital Airport in Traverse City, Mich., a year-round tourism destination. Operating out of the airport's general aviation terminal, the Avfuel-branded facility offers a range of fueling products and services. In addition to fuel and Avfuel programs, Avflight Traverse City features concierge services, a pilot lounge area, flight-planning facilities, courtesy vehicles, de/anti-icing services, cargo loading/unloading, charter handling and on-site rental cars.
Signature Flight Support agreed last month to purchase the FBO component of Metro Flight Services at Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW). Metro Flight was one of two FBOs at the airport, the other being owned by Signature sister company ASIG, which also provides the airline fueling and ground handling at DTW. Once the acquisition is complete, the FBOs will be combined into one Signature Flight Support location, leaving the BBA Aviation subsidiary the lone general aviation services provider on the field, while ASIG will continue to handle the airline traffic.
The 14th Annual Great Lakes Aviation Conference, which includes a maintenance symposium for technicians, is being held February 14-15 at The Lansing Center in Lansing, Mich. The symposium offers sessions that can be used to log eight hours of training to meet annual Inspection Authorization renewal requirements.
Immaculate Flight launched aircraft cleaning and detailing services today at six new airports in the greater Detroit and Toledo metro areas. These include Toledo Express, Detroit Metro Wayne County, Coleman A. Young Municipal, Ann Arbor Municipal, Willow Run (Ypsilanti) and Oakland County International Airports. The additions mark the company's second regional location in Michigan, while also adding Ohio as the company's 11th state where it provides service. With these openings, Immaculate Flight's network now exceeds 80 locations in the U.S.
Duncan Aviation's location in Provo, Utah, has been designated by Mexico's Directorate General of Civil Aviation as an approved aircraft maintenance organization. In addition, the company's Battle Creek, Mich. location recently received approval from the Bermuda Department of Civil Aviation. Besides the FAA, Duncan Aviation's locations in Lincoln, Neb., Battle Creek and Provo hold certificates from 10 more civil aviation authorities around the world.
Landmark Aviation began operations last week at its newest location, Gerald R. Ford International Airport in Grand Rapids, Mich. The service provider has acquired the assets of Northern Air and Grand Rapids Air Center and will operate out of the former Northern Air facility. Amenities include a VIP lounge, executive conference room, flight-planning room and crew showers. The location is Landmark's first in the state and will offer both FBO and MRO services.
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) reached a new record when inspectors at U.S. airports confiscated 65 guns in one seven-day period ending May 24. That number represents a 30-percent increase over the agency's previous record of 50 in a week.
The Paragon Network, a group of independent FBOs, has added Detroit to its growing web of national coverage. Metro Flight Services at Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport is the 24th FBO to join the group since its inception in early 2011. One of two FBOs on the field, Metro Flight is preparing to open a new 100,000 sq ft facility at the airport later this summer. The former site of a private flight department, it includes 45,000 sq ft of heated hangar space, 20,000 sq ft of climate controlled parking, and a 35,000 sq ft terminal, offices and shop space.
The future is uncertain for Waterford, Mich.-based aviation services provider Aerodynamics Inc. (ADI) after the company laid off its remaining MRO staff last Wednesday. At the beginning of October, the company, which also operates an FBO and aircraft management business at Oakland County International Airport, announced a suite of layoffs of approximately half its employees, and another round followed earlier this month, around the same time its subsidiary ADI Shuttle Group filed for bankruptcy protection, citing more than $1 million in liabilities.

Major damage: An uprooted tree atop a car at the Ikan Emas flats in Cheras; and (pic right) zinc roofing by the roadside at Perumahan Sri Johor in Cheras, Kuala Lumpur.
KUALA LUMPUR: Heavy rains had again wreaked havoc here after several major roads were inundated by floodwaters.
Strong winds also toppled trees in several parts of the city, worsening the already chaotic traffic.
The Jalan Duta-Jalan Semantan interchange turned into a muddy stream momentarily during the 3pm downpour yesterday. All three lanes on both sides of Jalan Duta were submerged and at its peak, the water was 30cm deep.
A car was found stalled in the floodwaters along the slip road to Jalan Duta from Jalan Semantan heading towards Jalan Kuching.
The flash floods also caused motorists in other busy areas, including Jalan Kia Peng, Jalan Bangsar and the Jalan Ampang-Jalan Sultan Ismail junction, to be caught in a nose-to-tail traffic snarl.
In Jalan Tun Razak, a car was hit by falling branches near an underpass but no injuries were reported.

Stratégie optimale de réduction de l'intervalle de confiance pour l'estimateur de la prime ajustée. Application en assurance automobile
AbstractThe estimator of the adjusted premium developed by Necir and Boukhetala (2004) is considered. The problem of reducing the variance of this estimator is formulated as an optimization program with nonlinear stochastic constraints. An hybrid genetic algorithm is used for finding global optimal solutions, statistically explicable. An application to automobile insurance is developed.

This spicy strawberry, avocado & grilled corn salsa will make everyone in your familia happy
Recently, I was invited by the California Strawberry Commission to visit strawberry farms in northern California. Now, I was already a fan of strawberries, but I had no idea that they could be so versatile. I thought of them as a great healthy fruit that could also be made into desserts, jellys, and jams, but that's about it. Then I ate food created with strawberries by marvelous chefs and a whole new world of possibilities opened up. So much so that I created what I like to call salsa fresa.
My salsa fresa is a strawberry, avocado, and grilled corn salsa that I am super proud of. It is so yummy and refreshing. Why had I never thought of making salsa with strawberries before? It totally works.

I'm not good at keeping secrets and the recipe to this yummy salsa is not something I want to keep a secret. If you love salsas, please try it out. Even my sometimes snobby foodie husband thought it was awesome. Please don't tell him I said he's sometimes a snobby foodie, he disagrees.
Spicy Strawberry, Avocado, and Grilled Corn Salsa
10 large strawberries, hulled and chopped
Kernels from 2 large ears of corn, grilled
2 medium-sized grilled jalapeños- stemmed, peeled, seeded, and chopped
2 ripe avocados –peeled, pitted, diced
Juice from 2 limes
Drizzle of olive oil
Splash of apple cider vinegar
Salt to taste
Toss everything into a large bowl, mix it up, yum, yum!
Serve with tortilla chips.

Colorado Stands Up for Equality This Fall
October 20, 2010 by Ty Cobb, Director of Global Engagement
This weekend I headed to Colorado (along with other HRC staff) to help pro-equality candidates get elected in the U.S. House and Senate. Only minutes after I landed in Denver, one thing became crystal clear -- Ken Buck cannot become the next senator from Colorado. As many HRC members are aware, Ken Buck compared gays and lesbians to alcoholics while debating Senator Michael Bennet on Sunday. Buck confidently explained that he believed being gay is a choice. You and I know better. Words like these have consequences, and these consequences can be severe. Elections also have consequences, and electing Ken Buck would shrink the number of pro-equality senators in the U.S. Senate. As our nation grapples with the recently reported suicides of numerous teens that were subject to anti-LGBT harassment and bullying, our nation cannot afford to elect an individual -- like Ken Buck -- that tells gay teens that there is something wrong with them. To support Senator Bennet, HRC PAC is hosting a Meet & Greet with the Senator on Thursday, October 21st at 7:45 pm at Hamburger Mary's in Denver. Currently the senate race is virtually tied, and Ken Buck is outspending Senator Bennet 2-to-1. It is crucial that Denver's LGBT community come out to meet and support Senator Bennet. To become a host or attend the event, register here. Additionally, if you're in the Denver area and interested in meeting other HRC members and volunteering on a strong, pro-equality campaign, please contact me at email@example.com. As volunteer opportunities are scheduled over the next 14 days, I'll make sure to post them on HRC Back story.
Paid for by Human Rights Campaign PAC and authorized by Bennet for Colorado

Blog Update: Bookmark this...
By Rich Figel
Sorry, readers. I'd really like to offer more tips and advice related to careers and job hunting, but my posts keep disappearing from the StarAdvertiser.com blog box shortly after they appear.
The problem is the box only will hold 10 blog links, apparently. Newer posts bump down older posts. Older posts vanish -- you can find the transplanted Advertiser blogs on the old Advertiser blog page though.
The alternative is to add blogs you like to your RSS feed, or bookmark individual blogs. Mine is: http://careerchangers.honadvblogs.com/
I've emailed the S-A webmaster and pointed out that this affects all the bloggers since some are posting multiple times in one day, while others are more sporadic. Also, for some reason I keep seeing double posts for some blogs. No response from management yet.
Hopefully, they'll expand the number of blog headlines or keep them in the box for at least a day or two. My suggestion was they have a separate Blog page link at the top of the box that readers can click on to view all blogs and post headers for the entire week.
Is it just me, or is the text on the newly added blogs appearing all the way to the left of your screen with virtually no margin space?
While I'm here, any suggestions on topics you'd like me to address? Besides blog problems, that is!
