Will photographs be taken along the Half Marathon course and at the finish, and how can I order these pictures?
Participants in the B.A.A. Half Marathon will have their bib numbers mailed to them in advance of the race. Please remember to bring your bib number with you on the day of the event. If you have not received your bib number within one week of the event, please contact the B.A.A. at email@example.com.
Please handle your bib with care. Your timing device will be attached to the back of your bib, and if it's bent too much, it will not record your time along the route.
Where do I retrieve my baggage after I finish the Boston Marathon?
No bags will be allowed on buses from Boston to Hopkinton, and bags will not be transported from Hopkinton back to Boston. Bags will not be allowed in certain areas at or near the start in Hopkinton, at or near the finish in Boston, or along the course. At the conclusion of the race, the B.A.A. will provide you with a Heatsheet® Warmth Retention Cape for warmth.
A gear check opportunity on Boston Common will be available on the morning of the Boston Marathon, allowing official participants to have a change of clothing (shoes, pants, shirt, jacket) at the conclusion of the race. The bag to be used for this purpose will be provided at Number Pick-up by the B.A.A. Only this B.A.A.-provided, clear, plastic bag can be used for this purpose. No other bags will be accepted. Any items that you would like to have with you at the conclusion of the race must be placed inside the clear, plastic bag that the B.A.A. will provide for you. You must leave this clear, plastic bag at the gear check area on Boston Common prior to boarding the B.A.A. shuttle bus to the start in Hopkinton. Please be aware that the gear check area on Boston Common is approximately one half mile from the exit of the finish area at Arlington Street.
More information will be forthcoming.
All of the above is subjec to change.
If I entered my Boston Marathon application information incorrectly, will I not be entered into the race?
As your qualifying time is verified, we may find that your name was misspelled, your zip code was wrong, or other minor mistakes with your application. As long as your qualifying time can be verified, these mistakes should not jeopardize your entry into the Boston Marathon. You will be contacted by the B.A.A. eventually to correct this information.
How can I sign up as a volunteer for B.A.A. events?
To volunteer with the B.A.A., please click the button below:
How do I get to the Boston Marathon start from the parking lots in Hopkinton?
We STRONGLY recommend that all entrants take the official B.A.A. buses from Boston to Hopkinton on race morning, as it is the only way we can ensure that you will get into Hopkinton.
Hopkinton State Park parking and shuttle is for volunteers and spectators only. Registered runners parking at this location and using this shuttle will not be transported to the Athlete's Village, will have to walk an additional one mile from the drop-off point to the Village, and may be subject to additional security screening to enter the Village. Registered runners are requested to use the shuttle buses from the South Street parking lots in order to ensure their arrival at the Athlete's Village.
I wasn't able to participate in the Boston Marathon. Is it possible to have my t-shirt mailed to me?
We will mail t-shirts to all registered runners who were unable to participate and have requested one. This process can take 2-4 weeks.
I will be 44 when I run my qualifying race, but will be 45 when I run the Boston Marathon. What is my qualifying time?
Your qualifying time is based on your age on the day of the Boston Marathon, thus your qualifying time will be 3hrs 25 min – and you can be 44 when you run your qualifying race.
For more information on qualifying times, click here
Will there be a baggage check area at the B.A.A. Half Marathon?
Race participants can check belongings at a designated location near the start. Belongings must be claimed shortly following the race. The B.A.A. is not responsible for personal belongings.
When will I be notified of my acceptance into the Boston Marathon?
Please allow approximately four weeks for application processing. We must receive official results from the race of your qualifying marathon before we can verify your time. Upon acceptance, you will receive an email and/or notification by United States Postal Service mail.
1920 - Ashland Start
The Boston Marathon began in Ashland, Massachusetts from 1897 through 1923 then moved to Hopkinton for the 1924 race. The course was lengthened to 26 miles, 385 yards to conform to the Olympic standard, and the starting line was moved west from Ashland to Hopkinton. Since then, the race has started in Hopkinton every year.

Following application, candidates' credentials are reviewed, with particular attention to the prerequisites noted on the Entrance Requirements page. Candidates considered "most qualified" will be invited for a personal interview with the selection committee in November. Those not meeting the prerequisites, or who have been denied admission following two previous interviews, may be declined an invitation to interview. Due to limited space availability, even some who meet the prerequisites may not be invited to interview if their qualifications are not among the most competitive. Therefore, applicants who wish to reapply the following year may do so by updating their application.
The Admissions Committee of the Nurse Anesthesia Program review the credentials of each applicant. Final selection is based upon many factors; no single criterion has a decisive influence on the applicant's acceptability. Selection of candidates for interview or program admission will also be based upon qualities of professionalism and communication with the program during the application and interview process.
Qualified applicants are invited to a yearly interviews (generally held in November). Applications for each academic year must be received by October 1 of the preceding year in order to be screened and interviewed. Final selections for the program are made by January for admission in August.

They've been open about a week, and the food is excellent. They've got a pretty wide-reaching menu, from burgers to pizza to gyros and everything in between, they have the ability to cater to lage groups, and they have the pub area kept separate from the restaurant, so that families can come and not worry about children wandering off. (It must be noted, however, that the restaurant contains a game room that kept the populace of Gate's Edge fairly busy for hours on Monday night.) And the prices are quite reasonable. I know it's a long way for our friends and family in Raven's Fort, so it's likely to be one of the less compromising options that's offered. But since they are new, and have good service from nice folks as well as excellent food, and could definitely use the business, I feel compelled to recommend it. Be warned, however, that there is some discrepancy as to Papa Tony's definition of "mild" wings.

|Gunn-Rita Dahle Flesjaa is simply amazing. At 39 years old, she's still killing it. She came home fifth on the day
|In lap 4 Katerina Nash seized the lead and looked to be on track to record her first ever World Cup win.
|Adelheid Morath overtook the faltering Pendrel somewhere in lap 5 and moved into fourth place. Meanwhile, Pendrel did damage control, essentially working hard to stay on the podium, but ultimately sliding into sixth place and off the podium.
|Nash looked to be a shoe in for her first ever World Cup win, but Tanja Zakelj threw in a vicious attack midway up the first climb of the last lap and Nash was unable to respond.
|High-Five for her fans from Zakelj on the finishing straight with no one in sight. Nash finished 20 seconds back.
|Women's elite podium, L-R: Adelheid Morath (4), Katerina Nash (2), Tanja Zakelj (1) Emily Batty (3), and Gunn-Rita Dahle Flesjaa (5).
|Catharine Pendrel led out the ladies in the Elite Women's race, but after a single lap, the wheels started slipping. Pendrel comented post race that she had too much sugar before the race and crashed hard midway through.
|Nino Schurter led out the Elite Men's race with Julien Absalon and Jaroslav Kulhavy as his most likely threats. Top of the first climb and Schurter was looking to see who was gunning for him; Absalon was caught in traffic, but Kulhavy was a mere 3 seconds down.
|The rest of the bunch was led out by a Marco Aurelio Fontana, who's been taking fashion notes from Adam Craig, it appears.
|By lap three, Absalon had caught up and attacked Schurter, but the Frenchman could not shake a tenacious Schurter.
|Schurter and Absalon continued to slug it out, swapping leads and effectively keeping well ahead of Kulhavy, who was dangling in no man's land some 60 seconds or so back for most of the race.
|It was bloody damn hot today. Jose Hermida loves the heat, and even he was visibly wilting in today's heat.
|Schurter, smelling the victory on the penultimate lap, as he managed to get away from Absalon before starting the final lap.
|Kulhavy went full gas to try and reel in the two front runners, but it was useless. They simply had too much advantage, and the Czech is not in prime form yet.
|Absalon is never one to relent; he dogged Schurter right up until the end, finishing 3 seconds down to Schurter.

State Department official: Visas Viper cable "just the tip of the iceberg"
The State Department's official cable about underwear-bomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab wasn't the only report to come out of the U.S. Embassy in Nigeria as part of the Visas Viper process, a State Department official tells The Cable.
As reported earlier today, the alert sent by the embassy to the National Counterterrorism Center and other agencies on Nov. 20 contained only sparse information about the meeting between embassy officials and his father, a prominent Nigerian businessman. That reporting fell short of the regulations for Visas Viper cables, failing to add detailed information about the father's background and credibility.
But the additional qualitative information was included in several reports sent that same day and in succeeding days by the embassy in separate and previously unreported classified communications to the NCTC, from other embassy personnel not from employed by the State Department, the official said.
"The unclassified Visas Viper cable is just the tip of the iceberg in a much more extensive set of reports that came from the post," the official said.
At least one of those additional reports was from the CIA, the official said, and others might have been from the FBI representative on post or other intelligence organizations.
President Obama commented on previous reports that Abdulmutallab's father had several contacts with the CIA that were not disseminated through the intel community. What's new here is that the State Department official is claiming at least some of these were submitted directly to the NCTC "as part of the Visas Vipers process."
State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley confirmed the information to The Cable and defended the official Visas Viper report as being only one part of the embassy's effort to pass on the information they had about Abdulmutallab.
"The people in Nigeria said that this was as much of the information they felt comfortable providing in an unclassified cable," said Crowley. "The rest of the information was submitted as part of the VISA Vipers process, but by other means."'
UPDATE: A reader writes in: "There is no FBI representative at Embassy Abuja. The Legal Attache for Nigeria operates out of the Consulate in Lagos. " So we're left with the CIA and other as yet unnamed agencies as those who submitted the "classified" parts of the Viper cable.

Coverage of Virginia politics and the 2014 election.
Gov to review exotic pet laws
Gov. Bob McDonnell said today he's asked his Secretary of Public Safety to review Virginia's laws — or lack thereof — regarding exotic animals.
This comes in response to last week's incident in Ohio in which 48 exotic animals — including tigers and lions — were shot by authorities. Their owner had kept a menagerie of more than 50 animals; he cut open their cages and then shot himself. Some of the surviving animals, including some monkeys, were sent to local zoos.
While some states ban exotic pets, Virginia does not. Last week the Virginia Humane Society urged McDonnell to adopt regulations restricting ownership of such animals. According to the Society, Virginia's laws provide "little oversight" — they say big cats, bears and wolves require permits, and there are no regulations over primates.
Speaking on WTOP radio's monthly Ask the Governor program, McDonnell said his administration has just started reviewing Virginia's laws to see if they should be tightened up, and he's waiting for the report before taking any action.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) - A cockpit voice recorder captured the sound
of a bang and a loud air noise about 17 seconds before a helicopter
crashed into a marshy area of southeast Louisiana last year,
killing eight people.
A transcript released Thursday by the National Transportation
Safety Board says one of the pilots asked, "What the hell
happened?" after hearing the bang.
The other pilot responded, "Low rotor."
The first pilot said, "I cannot hear you."
Those were the final words spoken by the pilots before the
crash, which killed both pilots and six passengers and critically
injured a lone survivor.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation, but
investigators believe a bird struck the Sikorsky S-76C before it
crashed near Morgan City on Jan. 4, 2009.

Recent Posts in world music
November 13, 2014
The leading light of Garifuna music has come home to roost. After his adventurous 2011 release Laru Beya--for which he traveled to Senegal and recorded with West African musicians--Aurelio understood anew that his strength as a musician lay in his own roots. The Garifuna people descend from escaped African captives who interbred with Carib Indians on the island of St. Vincent for a century before being forcibly moved to the Central American coast by British colonials. On Honduran shores, young Aurelio used to listen to the fishermen coming home at sunset and lingering into the night to sing paranda songs by the sea. All this happened at the landing, the landini, the image that gives this album's title its most literal meaning.The above review is of Aurelio Martinez's newest and third album, Landini, which follows 2011's Laru Beya and 2004's Garifuna Soul. Aurelio's a Honduran musician and a member of the Garifuna community, and in addition to music served in the Honduran National Congress (the first black member of the congress) which explained the big gap between his first two albums. Since Laru Beya though, music seems to be a continuing concern, considering it only took three years to get out its followup. And now Aurelio has plans to come to the US for a tour here.
This set of 12 rootsy songs was recorded under the direction of Aurelio's longtime producer Ivan Duran of Stonetree Records. Duran, who has produced a series of exemplary Garifuna releases, has mastered the sound--open and airy, deceptively simple, but graced with crisp percussion, layered vocals, and subtle tasty guitar sounds, from ambient slides to crunchy chops and melodious breaks. Voices are paramount, for these are first and foremost stories about love affairs, births, deaths and boats lost at sea. Duran notes that it is the collective sharing of an experience that gives a Garifuna song a long life in the community. [by Banning Eyre for Afropop Worldwide]
The tour begins in Teaneck, NJ on Friday (11/14) and then comes to Elmira, NY (11/18) before hitting NYC on November 22 at Symphony Space in the Peter Jay Sharp Theater. Tickets for that show are on sale now.
All dates (including New Year's Eve in Portland, OR) are listed, with a video of him playing "Irawini" from the new album, below...

Paul Simon joining Ladysmith Black Mambazo at Carnegie Hall during UBUNTU fest, touring overseas in 2015
Paul Simon at Webster Hall in 2011 (more by Ryan Barkan)
From October 8 - November 5, Carnegie Hall will be hosting the UBUNTU: Music and Arts of South Africa festival which includes events at Carnegie as well as other NYC venues. Some more details from the press release:
With its UBUNTU festival, Carnegie Hall salutes South Africa, a country with its dizzying patchwork of cultures, eleven official languages, and a cultural life like none other. Roughly translated as "I am because you are," Ubuntu is a philosophy from Southern Africa that emphasizes the importance of community, a way of thinking that has influenced recent moves toward reconciliation and cultural inclusion in South Africa as fostered by South Africa's former president, the late Nelson Mandela. The spirit of this philosophy is embodied in the festival's programming, which features a varied lineup of artists representing the many threads that together make up the country's musical culture.It's now been announced that African-music lover Paul Simon will be performing during the festival on October 18 at Carnegie Hall, joining South African choral group Ladysmith Black Mambazo, who he performed with on his Graceland tour.

Sierra Leone's Refugee All Stars releasing a new album, going on tour, playing AFRICA NOW! at The Apollo (dates/streams)
This album celebrates the 10th Anniversary of the making of our first album Living Like a Refugee. Since that first album we've lived a life that once seemed unimaginable; we have toured the world, released more albums, and shared our music with thousands upon thousands of friends and fans. But while we keep rolling we never forget our roots. So this is our musical libation - an offering - to celebrate the blessings that our music has brought to us, to pay respect to the spirits of the musical brothers we have lost along the way, and to pay tribute to Mama Salone - the country whose culture, traditions, and rhythms infuse our music and fill our souls with pride.Sierra Leone's Refugee All Stars (literally a band of refugees from Sierra Lone) will release their fourth album, Libation, on March 18 via Cumbancha. It was produced by Chris Velan who also did the band's debut, and mixed by Iestyn Polson, who's worked with David Bowie, Patti Smith and others. You can listen to two of its tracks, "Gbaenyama" and "Rich But Poor," along with a sampler of the whole album, below.
The band will also be going on a tour in April and May which brings them to NYC on April 5 at Apollo Theater. That show is part of the second edition of AFRICA NOW!, "the weekend festival spotlighting today's African music scene." Also playing is Mali's Fatoumata Diawara and Senegal's Les Frères Guissé. Tickets are on sale now. More details on the weekend's events here.
All dates are listed, along with those streams, below...

"The first half of us made it to NYC. Waiting for the rest!!! Loving the weather ;-)" - KiT
There are plenty of bands that have tried to do the "traditional music remixed with electronica" thing and truthfully, many of them kind of suck. But KiT pulls it off extremely well, with a zero-cheese approach and an electronic sound that manages to be organic, raw and heavy all at once. The band's most recent single is "Jackhammer," featuring a bubbling beat with Dutch house synths, baile funk-influenced drum fills and dancehall vocals, and it could easily become the global bass hit of the summer. [MTV Iggy]KiT (aka Kuenta i Tambú) hail from Curaçao and the mix the traditional Caribbean music style Tambu with modern day electronic styles resulting in what they call "tambutronic." Their recent single "Jackhammer" does this in a super fun way, and like the review quoted above opines, does so "with a zero-cheese approach." Watch its video below.
KiT are in NYC this week to play globalFEST at Webster Hall on Sunday (1/12) with a ton of different performers from around the world (sold out), but you can catch part of the group much sooner than that. They'll DJ with live vocals in Brooklyn at Baby's All Right TONIGHT (1/9) with Cookies and Tropic of Pisces. Show starts at 9 and they go on around midnight.
UPDATE: Check out a picture from the Baby's All Right show!

Blog-turned label Awesome Tapes From Africa had a top-drawer 2013, releasing Penny Penny's legendary 1994 South African deep house album Shaka Bundu, plus the muggy grooves of Dur-Dur Band's 1985 Volume 5 LP. Standout by a league, though, was this enchanting one-man-band collection from 1985. Anyone who's fallen for Mulatu Astaqué's languid Ethio-jazz simply has to hear this, stet. Using multi-tracked electric piano, accordion and analogue synth, [Hailu] Mergia makes serpentine Ethiopian jazz, but trades in the usual folk instruments for big fat beefy synth leads. Comfort food, prime for scoffing.The above quote is from FACT's 50 best reissues of 2013, where Ethiopian one-man-band Hailu Mergia came in at #5 for his 1985 album Hailu Mergia and His Classical Instrument, which Awesome Tapes From Africa reissued earlier this year. Pitchfork gave the reissue a 7.4 and called it "not quite like anything else you've ever heard." Hailu recently spoke to Aquarium Drunkard about the recording process:
AD: But Hailu Mergia & His Classical Instrument is a different sort of album. You did everything yourself, a home-studio type project?You can stream a track from the album, "Shilela," below, and the album is available to purchase in vinyl, CD, and digital formats.
Hailu Mergia: Yeah, that's right. So what I did was I chose the old songs with accordion, and I put accordion as a lead. Then I put a Rhodes piano, an electric Rhodes piano. Fender. And then I put a Moog synthesizer and a drum machine. The drum machine was like, at that time in 1980's like a kind of new fashion. And then the rest, old fashioned. So what I did, for remainder of my life, accordion was like a really important instrument in my life before I changed to organ. So people, usually they love accordion sound, and when the organ came to Ethiopia, all of a sudden, the accordion sound was missed by everybody. So when I brought in this new mix of these different instruments, the sound is good, the sound is modern and old fashioned. The melodies are very nice melodies, so because of this, everybody had some kind of.... nostalgia.
Hailu Mergia will be coming to NYC this month to play a show at Baby's All Right on December 19 with his band Low Mentality and openers Highlife. Tickets for that show are on sale now.

cult-funk singer William Onyeabor releasing LP on Luaka Bop; release parties happening (NYC's is w/ Steve Shelly & more)
If Fela Kuti was a child of James Brown, fellow Nigerian William Onyeabor is something like the next-generation musical offspring of Parliament-Funkadelic. His songs are extended call-and-response disco-funk jams driven by the space-age sound of synthesizers and drum machines -- very new tools when Onyeabor was recording in the late '70s and '80s, especially in Africa. After years of existing mainly as secret grail passed between electronic music DJs and other crate diggers, Onyeabor's handful of studio LPs have been licensed and boiled down to a killer compilation by Luaka Bop, the tastemaking world music label started by David Byrne.The above text is quoted from NPR, where you can head now for a full album stream of Who Is William Onyeabor?, the compilation of Nigerian cult-funk singer William Onyeabor's music which comes out on David Byrne's Luaka Bop label next week (10/29). The Guardian also just did a feature video on him, and mentioned that Four Tet, Caribou, and Damon Albarn are all fans.
So who IS William Onyeabor? Part of the album's conceit is that even the compilers don't fully know. The liner notes, by veteran British journalist Vivien Goldman, note that Onyeabor is a crowned chief in his hometown village of Enugu, Eastern Nigeria, where he lives in "a hidden palace in the woods" and is a booster of the local Christian music scene. But he essentially left his own music career in the '80s, in the wake of the recordings collected here, presumably when he became a born-again Christian.
Luaka Bop will be teaming up with OkayAfrica to celebrate with the release with some parties worldwide, including one in Brooklyn happening on Saturday (10/26) at Buka Nigerian Restaurant (945 Fulton St), plus an afterparty down the block at Doris (1088 Fulton St). There will be DJ sets from Steve Shelley (Sonic Youth), Lizzi Bougatsos (Gang Gang Dance), and Tim Koh (Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti). RSVP for all parties is open now. The full list of parties and the flyer are below.
The NYC party is one day after Steve Shelley and his former Sonic Youth bandmate Lee Ranaldo's band Lee Ranaldo & the Dust open for Kurt Vile at Terminal 5 (10/25) (tickets).
All William Onyeabor party dates are listed, along with trailer videos for the album and parties, plus the flyer, below...

Island Trees High School proudly announces the valedictorian and salutatorian of the Class of 2010. Valedictorian Roohi Maini and Salutatorian Guiseppe Ferraro embody all of the distinct qualities necessary for success in their promising futures. Both of these accomplished scholars exercise their talents both in the classroom and in their communities.
Warm, intelligent and enthusiastic, Roohi approaches life's challenges with a positive attitude. It is her ability to balance hard work and the active pursuit of her academic goals with that of her desire to be involved and make a difference in her school community, that sets her apart as a unique student.
Though highly motivated and goal-oriented, Roohi has the genuine desire to make a difference in the world, starting right at Island Trees High School. Roohi is an active member of the Student Council, National Honor Society, the Environmental Club, the Book Club, and the Key Club. In addition, she volunteers at New Island Hospital where she finds joy in visiting senior patients. A force to contend with on the badminton court, Roohi and her partner are currently undefeated. Roohi is respected and admired by her teachers for her intelligent curiosity and unique independence.
Perhaps social studies teacher Mr. Robert Amato says it best, "This is a unique young woman, singular in both ability and commitment." Inspired by her parents and teachers, Roohi attributes her success to their constant support and motivation. When asked to provide some encouraging words to students wishing to achieve greater academic success, she shares this, "Don't ever give up and don't ever let anyone tell you that you are not good enough... because you are."
Dedicated, motivated and self-assured, Guiseppe approaches all academic and personal challenges with maturity and poise. His extracurricular involvements reflect his diverse interests, as he is a member of the Key Club, Peer Leaders, and Athletes Helping Athletes. In addition to being extremely involved in school life, Guiseppe maintains a part-time job and an intense interest in music. He is a talented musician, playing the alto-sax in the school band, jazz band, All-County Band, and NYSSMA competitions. His determination to conquer challenges finds its way into competitive sports, as Guiseppe is a valued player on the varsity soccer team.
Guiseppe has made quite an impression on his teachers. His counselor, Ms. Sara Sherbach, speaks highly of him, saying, "This is one young man that I know is going places and will use every opportunity to his advantage, being grateful for each and every one of them just as he has throughout his four years of high school."
Guiseppe attributes his success to both his parents and all of his teachers, who, according to him, "are the reason why students are able to do what we do." In fact, Guiseppe has been raised to value his education deeply and take pride in everything he achieves.
Guiseppe has some advice for aspiring students. "Take advantage of every opportunity from the beginning," he said. "Get involved as a freshman. Even though doing well is a lot of pressure, don't look back and wish you did better in that freshman class."
Both students are excited to continue their education in the fall. Roohi will attend either New York University or University of Pennsylvania to study psychology, while Guiseppe plans to pursue a degree in accounting and business at St. John's University. The Island Trees High School faculty wishes them all the best in their future endeavors.

We can't resist a thorough rummage through the jewellery collections of fashionable types, which is exactly why The 'In Detail' blog has become our new addiction. Brought to us by designer and writer Beanie Major and graphic designer-slash-photographer Harry Cresswell, it offers access-all-areas coverage of the most delectable and fashion-forward bling out there, both out on the streets and in the jewellery boxes of the most exciting jewellery talent. Back in November, you might remember that Beanie and Harry revealed their top ten jewellery looks for Autumn Winter 2010. Now the pair are back with an access-all-areas round-up of London Fashion Week's biggest and best metal work from last month. Enjoy...
Jewellery was more prominent than ever at LFW this year - the launch of the BFC Rock vault brought a host of the hottest jewellery talent to Somerset House and the catwalk was buzzing with jewels from the tribal nose rings by Ashish to Holly Fulton's signature graphic designs. As ever, we scoured the streets of London to find the best 'Style in Jewellery' and bring you the trends we are loving right now...
There's no escaping vibrant colour this Spring. But if, like us, you're too devoted to your black J Brands to embrace neon pins - and you don't have the year round Olivia Palermo-style St Barts tan that makes a fluorescent tee pop - a neon accessory is the perfect solution. We've gone yellow - because it makes us happy and reminds us of sunshine - but any neon is a hit. So go on, be brave, pick up some flouro wrist candy, and inject a little colour into your wardrobe…
1. Amama cuff, Moxham at Kabiri
2. Watch in Yellow, Ice-Watch
3. White gold neon yellow-knot bracelet, Jada at Kabiri
4. Katie enamel brass bracelet. Marc by Marc Jacobs at Net-a-Porter
The skull needs little introduction when its comes to jewellery. Less 'trend' and more 'jewellery-box staple', it seems the fashion world just can't get enough of our boney-headed friend. The good news is that there is plenty to choose from whether it's the playful designs of Tina Lilienthal or these elegant hoops by Momocreatura [see above]. Want to inject a little edge to your wardrobe? Then tap into your darker side with these fabulous designs.
1. Small skull band, The Great Frog
2. Stacking flower rings, Zoe & Morgan
3.Memento skull bangle in rose gold, LeiVanKash for Botticca
4. Baby Skull Hoop Earrings, Momocreatura for Elizabeth Galton
5. Skull pendant with arrow, Tina Lilienthal
With the return of the polo neck and high necklines gracing the catwalks over the last few weeks, statement earrings are set to be A/W 12's biggest jewellery trend. For wow-factor take a tip from Antonio Berardi's show and accentuate your jawline with a low-slung pony, paired with earrings by Shaun Leane. However don't be afraid to dress them down during the day. An 'all-rounder', the chandelier earring will look great with a plain t-shirt or jeans for a modern feminine feel.
1. Hex Chadelier Earrings, Missoma
2. Large cocktail earrings, Monica Vinader
3. Bound Chandelier Earrings, Shaun Leane
There's only one thing we like more than a great chunky necklace and thats a great chunky necklace/buttoned-up shirt combo. We were delighted when we spotted this Pamela Love tribal necklace under a delicious bright-green collar. To get the look, mix heavy metal over a delicate silk. Our favourites are this Hematite dome necklace by Mawi for tough luxe, or this chain 'Chloe' necklace for a double-collar effect.
1. 'Chloe' necklace, Elizabeth Galton
2. Hematite dome necklace with spikes, Mawi
Love actually was all around at LFW, and not because it was post-Valentine's Day. The fash-pack were out in full force wearing necklaces, earrings and rings emblazoned with the word 'love'. This Zoe & Morgan Lasso necklace has become a favourite amongst london's fashion-stylist and journalist crowd, and it's not hard to see why - it's the perfect mix of cute and sophisticated!
1. Love hoop earrings, Daisy Knights
2. Set of four Love rings, Maria Francesca Pepe for Kabiri
3 Love Lasso necklace and ring, Zoe & Morgan

Yay or Nay Wednesday
You knew this was coming. Since it's boot week you're voting on a boot this time around...a Gucci boot to be precise. As you can see there's no way in hell I could keep the designer of this one a secret, but that's exactly why I want your votes. For some reason a logo on a classic pair of boots seems much more bearable than a naff looking handbag, but would you go for such an obvious look? Gucci's 85th Anniversary boots - Yay or Nay and why?
Last week's controversial brogue Mary Janes were £25 from Freemans.

Jaguar Love: Take Me to The Sea
Jaguar Love: Take Me to The Sea
|Release Date:
Johnny Whitney may be in possession of the most distinctive voice in contemporary indie rock--a near-hysterical, helium-injected falsetto that seems to portend Armageddon's swift approach. His inimitable nasal screech helped define the Blood Brothers' oppressively riotous post-hardcore until that band broke up last year. Jaguar Love, his new project with ex-Blood Brother Cody Votolato and ex- Pretty Girls Make Graves member Jay Clark, finds Whitney dialing the histrionics down to suit the trio's relatively broader musical palette.
Take Me to the Sea announces Jaguar Love as its own entity right at the outset. "Highways of Gold" churns, to be sure, but this jumbled tumult actually deigns to carry a tune: Votolato and Whitney running twin, blazing guitar blitzes while Clark's keyboards pick away at a countermelody with surgical precision. Better yet--and uncharacteristically--Whitney's vocals surge in time with the song instead of jizzing wildly all over and against it. More unlikely still, waltz-time wonder "Bonetrees and a Broken Heart" hits like a 1950s girl-group send-up; "Georgia" packs all the staggering, wide screen-epiphany grandeur of a great Rod Stewart single; "My Organ Sounds Like . . . " vibrates with 1980s synth-pop brio--until it shape-shifts into a Fiery Furnaces gin-joint number.
Naturally, given Jaguar Love's pedigree, the band leaves space for punk-outs: Bristling, splintered, and pogo-fugly "Vagabond Ballroom" and "Antoine and Birdskull" are the closest Sea comes to kowtowing to those holding out for the Blood Brothers to re-unite. But even these ragers lack that anarchistic kill-'em-all instinct the Brothers embodied; Jaguar Love's phasers are set on stun, not annihilate, and that bodes well for those of us who've always dug on wild-out Whitney but hoped he'd turn the intensity down a couple notches for the sake of everyone's sanity.

Company responses to the makeITfair list of principles (July 2008)
In January 2008, makeITfair held an international roundtable on the basis of three research reports dealing with CSR issues in the extractive phase of consumer electronics. At this roundtable, the research results were presented to seven of the electronics companies, as well as representatives of the EICC and GeSI. After this roundtable, makeITfair developed its List of Principles, in coordination with a number of NGO's and initiatives that deal specifically with mining issues. The List of Principles was sent to all major electronic brand companies, with the request to issue a public response on how they would take up these recommendations into their CSR and business approach.
makeITfair received a response from the following seventeen companies: Dell, IBM, Microsoft, Apple, Fujitsu Siemens, Hewlett-Packard, Lenovo, Motorola, Nintendo, Nokia, Philips, Samsung, Sony, Sony Ericsson, ST, TomTom and Toshiba.
One front runner
HP is the only one of these seventeen companies that responded directly to the List of Principles that makeITfair developed. In its detailed and extensive response, HP indicates that it has conducted a study into its own supply chain, in an effort to track the metals used. It also mentions the company's strategy of direct engagement with its first tier suppliers, and will request these suppliers to provide declarations of conformance to the EICC from its metal suppliers. HP suggest to conduct a feasibility study to attempt to trace the tin that it uses back to the mines, and initiate a cooperation between HP, the EICC, and several CSR initiatives in the mining sector to address the issues identified. This response is welcomed by makeITfair, and the coalition expresses its hope that these intentions will lead to concrete actions and noticeable improvements. Find the detailed response of HP here.
The middle of the road approach
A further twelve companies responded to makeITfair's list of principles by sending or making mention of an industry response issued by the EICC and GeSI. These were Samsung, Motorola, Dell, Nokia, Lenovo, Sony, Sony Ericcson, Philips, IBM, ST, Apple and Fujitsu Siemens.
The industry response mentions the difficulty "to trace the metal used in a particular product to the original source", the added complexity of metals being mined at numerous countries and the proportion of artisinal mining. As the companies do not purchase the metals directly, they feel that the electronics industry's "ability to address social and environmental concerns at raw material level could be strengthened by investigating options to work alongside other major end-use sectors". They are concerned about the "allegations of poor conditions in the supply chain of metals used in electronics products" and are looking at possible collaboration with existing multistakeholder initiatives on social and environmental conditions in the mining industry.
The industry response makes prominent mention of the study into the raw materials that was released on the 23th of June 2008. The study looked into the use of several metals by the electronics industry, the supply chain and the conditions under which the metals are mined. "Based on this study's findings, there are opportunities for the EICC and GeSI members to
influence social and environmental performance in mining and metals production. However, this will depend on a clearer understanding of specific metals used in components and electronic products."
The study concludes with several recommendations;
- The electronic industry should engage with appropriate existing SER initiatives and stakeholders, as identified in this study, possibly in partnership with other end-use sectors, to both strengthen efforts and reduce proliferation of overlapping initiatives.
- The electronic industry should continue to emphasize activities in management of end-of life electronic products, including efforts to enhance materials efficiency after product use, and attention to recycling of metals.
- Individual electronic companies need to further characterize specific metal content and use in electronic products. This supports the tracking of metals used in electronics, helps in tracing sources of materials, and facilitates recycling.
makeITfair is encouraged by the recommendations put forth in the report, and expresses its hope that these will lead to concrete activities of the industry and eventually to actual improvements in the supply chain.
Varying quality of individual responses
In addition to HP's individual response described above, TomTom, Nintendo, Fujitsu Siemens, Nokia, Motorola, Philips, and Toshiba also provided makeITfair with individual company responses. Samsung and Sony Ericcson replied to Danwatch regarding metals sourcing and these responses are included as well. The responses varied significantly in detail, ambition and overall approach to supply chain issues and only a few of the companies have taken action or are proposing a follow up.
- TomTom merely refers to its Ethical Trading Code of Practice without any direct response to the list of principles. They do recognise their role within the supply chain and ensuring that their policy is adhered to at each link. They mention the responsibility for enforcing the code down the supply chain and have their suppliers implement the code with their suppliers.
- Nintendo, a company that was relatively more transparent in earlier requests than other companies, now issued a response indicating that it does not feel responsible for issues further down the supply chain; "extraction is not directly within our sphere of influence". Nintendo adds that they "… believe that it is fair that we pay a fair price when we purchase parts".
- Fujitsu Siemens mainly describes its approach towards the use of hazardous substances, but makes no mention to CSR issues in its supply chain other than the EICC/GeSI response. "as an individual firm it can have little influence or impact so far down the supply chain – this can only be seen as a shared responsibility with other manufacturers and suppliers in the IT industry and the broader marketplace".
- Nokia stresses the difficulties of tracing metals back to the mines when they are sold on the spot market. They feel that for "the purchasers of metals to audit and measure standards of all of their suppliers the metals industry first needs to increase transparency here".
- Toshiba indicated that it felt it could not respond to our list of principles due to the mere fact that the company was not present at makeITfair's roundtable.
- Samsung mentions that action is more likely to be taken on a collective than an individual basis. They started a research in their supply chain investigating the origin of a wider range of metals used in their mobile phones via supplier questionnaires. The questionnaires will be followed up by a more in-depth study starting in June 2008, "which will attempt to identify the full supply chain from our first tier suppliers, their vendors, smelting companies, mining companies and initial origin".
- Sony Ericsson has specifically followed up on tantalum and cobalt use and asked suppliers with components containing these metals to explicitly state that it is unacceptable to provide components containing metals produced with child labour, illegal activities, or other abuses, in any step of the value chain. . Sony Ericsson also mentions that they feel that mobile phone manufacturers can not change the whole metals and mining industry globally, but that they will continue to try to influence improvements.
- Motorola mentions that trough the study of EICC and GeSI Motorola will identify where their efforts will have the greatest impact for change. They think an industry approach will have more impact than individual companies' initiatives but understand they have individual responsibility as well. However, this would best be focused where it has the most leverage: through their direct suppliers and encouraging them to reach out to their own suppliers.
- Philips has mentioned to makeITfair that it "has taken the initiative within the framework of the EICC, by proposing a pilot exercise for one metal, to increase transparency in the supply chain in the areas of concern for the make IT fair initiative. In order to do so, engaging with a credible mining imitative is most likely the first step to be made".
makeITfair is pleased that these companies made the effort to respond to our requests, and is encouraged by those companies that express their commitments to concrete actions, such as Samsung, Sony Ericsson and Philips. However these commitments are few, and makeITfair is concerned about the lack of pro-active engagement shown by a number of companies.
Those lagging behind
Quite a large number of companies did not issue any form of response to our request. These include Acer, LG, Rim, Palm, Creative, and Logitech. makeITfair interprets these refusals to respond as a lack of transparency, a refusal to engage with civil society organisations, and a lack of ambition to address the grave social and labour injustices and environmental damage that take place in these companies' supply chains. makeITfair will continue to address these companies, and will frequently give updates on these companies' responses and (lack of) initiatives.

NORTH SMITHFIELD ŌĆö Attorney General Peter F. Kilmartin and the Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) are bringing attention to the dangers of texting and driving with a high school awareness tour that visited North Smithfield High School Wednesday.
Joined by RIDOT State Traffic Engineer Robert Rocchio, Regional Vice President for AT&T in Rhode Island David Mancuso, State Police Major David Tikoian and school officials, the group introduced AT&TŌĆÖs powerful ŌĆ£Txtng & DrivngŌĆ"It Can WaitŌĆØ campaign. After a short speaking program, students, teachers and guests viewed a documentary featuring families impacted by texting and driving accidents, and were then asked to sign a pledge to not text and drive. Roughly 250 students at North Smithfield High took the pledge.
ŌĆ£We are spreading the message to young drivers across Rhode Island: No text message is so important that itŌĆÖs worth taking your attention off the road and risking lives in the process,ŌĆØ said Kilmartin, who sponsored the stateŌĆÖs landmark legislation in 2009 banning texting while driving in Rhode Island. ŌĆ£Whether turning the phone off, taking a pledge, or just making it a personal practice, the next time you think about sending or answering a text while operating a vehicle, please remember ŌĆō it can wait.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£As Principal of North Smithfield High School, IŌĆÖd like to thank Attorney General Kilmartin, RIDOT, RI State Police and AT&T for sharing your time and valuable information with our students and staff,ŌĆØ said Robert Mezzanotte. ŌĆ£I am certain that our students will commit to the ŌĆśIt Can WaitŌĆÖ pledge. Furthermore, I am confident that they will educate their family, friends and community on the importance of driving safely.ŌĆØ
Throughout the school year, Kilmartin and RIDOT will bring the public awareness campaign to area high schools. Interested parties are encouraged to follow the lead of the North Smithfield High School students and go to www.itcanwait.com and take a no-texting-and-driving pledge, and then share their promise with others via Twitter (#itcanwait) and Facebook.
The next stop on the donŌĆÖt text and drive awareness tour is scheduled for Wednesday, December 12 at Westerly High School. Schools who are interested in participating should contact the Office of Attorney General at 401-274-4400 ext 2334.
A recent AT&T survey1 found that 97 percent of teens say they know that texting is dangerous.
The survey also found:
┬Ę 75 percent of teens surveyed say that texting while driving is ŌĆ£commonŌĆØ among their friends;
┬Ę Almost all teens (89 percent) expect a reply to a text or email within five minutes or less;
┬Ę And 77 percent of teens report seeing their parents text while driving.
Rhode Island State Police Colonel and Commissioner of the Department of Public Safety Steven G. OŌĆÖDonnell added, "Distracted Drivers are a serious problem on our roadways. As the enforcement arm of this campaign, we are pleased to join Attorney General Kilmartin, DOT and educators to get the message out to our most vulnerable population, DON'T TEXT and DRIVE!"
ŌĆ£Young drivers need to learn that the consequences to texting and driving can be deadly,ŌĆØ said RIDOT Director Lewis. ŌĆ£As we visit area high schools, we will be armed with the same safety message: DonŌĆÖt text and drive. It Can Wait.ŌĆØ

|Softball at Manhattanville
Do you have any plans for the weekend? If not, I can help you! Manhattanville College has many activities that take place on the weekends. One option may be the games! They have all kinds of sports on campus. Last Sunday, for example, there was a softball game, and the home team won! The game was easy for the girls of Manhattanville! In a game of almost 2.5 hours, the result was a 9 to 5 win for the home team.
But if you prefer to watch another type of game, you have many other options.
If you are interested, just access the site www.govaliants.com, and see what will be happening over the weekend.
