To create a 30 second commercial for Hilti. The film will be directed to the common people and not professionals. The film will show the qualities and opportunities of the screwdriver.
We realized that you can use the powertool for so much more than just drilling and screwing. It could simply be the extended arm that you always dreamed of.
We created a character who has taken the usage of his powertool one step further than everyone else and simply implemented his screwdriver in his everyday life. We wanted to show in a humorous way that with a Hilti you set your own limits to what is possible.
Loading more stuff…
Hmm…it looks like things are taking a while to load. Try again?

text: Here is what I would rather and like to see of Marvel Now: DD and his own deadly rogue gallery, include Bulls eye, and no lames! I want Moon Knight back without the schizophrenia/psychotic b.s. and his unique terrors of new villains and have them earn their stripes to stardom. Bring back Earth's Mightiest Heroes- The Avengers are: Captain America, Wasp, Thor, Iron Man, any new (3) heroes/heroines; and (2) reservists to fill in the roster. But get rid of the spin offs and keep certain characters in certain books as mainstays. Once liked Beast as an Avenger back in the day, but then he was a Defender and just mucked it up. He is an X-Man that is where he belongs as well as Wolverine, and with the previous mucked up (Avengers vs. X-Men) I didn't care for the story nor concept. As for the X-Men titles, Uncanny, X-Men, X-Force, revamp X-Factor and create X-Academy to introduce new and more Mutants without mucking it up. I want to see Alpha Flight return, the original members and not the lames nor baggage of characters. And new, interesting villains not just unique to Canada, a world threat in Dr. Doom class. Would like more premiers of characters from different countries joining the Avengers on certain occasions. This is when you can be creative with Black Panther and make his nation an "urban" jungle of danger and internal threat. Sabra and Silver Sable can also be part of World Initiative. Improve upon SHIELD time for its own book! Doctor Strange as Earth's Sorcerer Supreme and only. Return the Fantastic Four and no more killing off main characters please! Not time for and no more death plots! Time for a new Captain Marvel (not Ms. Marvel taking up the mantle nor Genis-vell) but a true Kree and kinworthy of his legacy. And you can pair him up with the Silver Surfer, Quasar, and Nova what should had been done before. So many aliens and villains for not to tell cosmic stories that can become classics. Lastly, delete all the characters have in Limbo and alternate timelines, refresh, or leave deleted permanently.

oil country tubular goods,
OCTG prices,
OCTG trade case,
Thorsten Schier
NEW YORK Vallourec SA expects its second-half oil country tubular goods (OCTG) prices to be buoyed by the United States recent anti-dumping ruling against product from South Korea and other countries.
"Vallourec was one of the petitioners, so we definitely think that its good news to be closer to what we consider fair trade," chairman Philippe Crouzet said during a July 30 earnings call in response to an analysts question about whether the decisions had in the end been a "nonevent."
The rulings would likely firm up welded OCTG prices "by the value of the dumping amount," and even though Vallourec only makes seamless OCTG in the United States, it would lead to more positive market sentiment, Crouzet said. "This is supporting the price increase(s) that we are pushing to our customers in the second half of the year."
The Paris-based pipe and tube maker continued to see a less favorable mix in the United States in the second quarter due to increased use of semipremium connections in oil drilling vs. premium connections in gas, but this shift is stabilizing and in some cases reversing, it said.
"We see some customers that were expecting to switch from premium to semipremium staying on premium connections," Crouzet said.
Vallourec expects the return of strong domestic gas drilling in 2016 as the reshoring of manufacturing takes hold.
"We should expect a structural change of the market with U.S. re-industrialization and strong continuation of gas drilling starting (in) early 2016," Crouzet said, agreeing with an analyst assessment that U.S. gas drilling is currently in a "trough."
In the meantime, the company will benefit from what is likely to be increased oil drilling through "the volume impact, (not) the mix," and from an investment in a premium threading line (amm.com, March 13) that is slated for start-up in "early to mid next year," Crouzet said.
Vallourec recorded net income of 88 million ($118.2 million) in the second quarter, up 41.9 percent from 62 million a year earlier, on sales that rose 3.3 percent to 1.42 billion ($1.9 billion), according to its earnings results.

This is a pretty good movie, and I was excited to see it in 3D as I have been amazed by some other 3D blurays (Thor, Captain America, Avatar).
Despite the fact that this wasn't "made for 3D", I was hopeful that the 3D reworking would yield some pretty cool results. Unfortunately, I didn't really see much 3D that enhanced the film or made it really worth it to buy a new bluray since I had the dvd (and it isn't a "gotta have" film for me - I was interested in it for the 3D feature.
If you don't have the film yet, it is a good addition to your collection. If you love this movie and have the dvd, then sure buy it, but if you just like the film and have the dvd, and are looking to expand your 3D film collection for some cool 3D films, you might wanna spend your money on other 3D discs.

This review is from: I, Robot [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
I won't get into a summary of the plot, my opinions on the acting or a comparison to the original movie. All science fiction eventually becomes reality, one just has to read the old Jules Verne novels and most all he predicted has come to pass. Perhaps, with iRobot, Asimov's vision of the future may also come to be reality. Suffice it to say that this film is well done, tense and draws you into a truly popcorn movie. I only review the quality of the Blu Ray disc itself. I do have the Standard Def version as well.
The Standard Def DVD was actually pretty well made; its video and audio were both very good so I do not believe that you will see a night and day difference between the SD DVD and this BluRay.
That said, the BluRay transfer is excellent with no grain or artifacting at all. Granted, you wouldn't expect to see grain in any CGI clip, but there are plenty of scenes that are not wholly CGI and the film retains true skin tones, a very nice contrast and warm color grading. No problems that I can see with the video transfer to Blu Ray which is why I gave it a 5.
The audio transfer is also excellent in lossless DTS HD MA 5.1 and the audio could easily be used for DEMO disc purposes at it utilizes the entire surround system with a great deal of discreet channeling to the rear stage and from front and rear with realistic panning when appropriate. However, as I said for the Standard Def version, its audio was also extremely well edited so the big difference is that this audio, being lossless with a larger bit rate, makes for a more enveloping sound track.
There are extras, a commentary, an alternate ending and CGI renditions of endings as well. If you do not already have a copy of iRobot, despite its age, the film retains sturdy legs and is well worth having in your collection, especially at such an inexpensive cost.
All my movie reviews are of this nature and focus only on the quality of the transfer to BluRay so check them and see if they are of help as well.
Hopefully, this review has been of some help to you in determining your purchase, hope I am on the correct path with a review of the transfer quality as opposed to providing plot summaries.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Perhaps this is my purpose",
Marc Ruby™ "The Noh Hare™" (Warren, MI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I, Robot (Widescreen Edition) (DVD)
My first reaction as this film began was "Wait! This isn't Asimov." The Asimov I grew up reading was a weaver of ideas, more mind candy than adventure story. But here I found myself in Will Smith's bedroom, and then suddenly catapulted into a wild chase after a purse grabbing robot. A far cry from the delicacy used by Asimov. It took a while for the shock to wear off but eventually the conflict between Smith's gritty performance as Del Spooner and his original inspiration in the reminiscences of Dr. Susan Calvin (played by Bridget Moynahan) wears off and the view settles into a film that is inspired by Asimov, but does not imitate him.
The sooner that happens, the better, because this is an exceptional film in its own right, even if it does proceed with the speed of a video game. Smith creates a wisecracking character with a deep mistrust of robots. He is called in to to investigate what appears to be an impossible killing - robots can't kill humans, it's the first law of robotics. But Dr. Alfred Lanning (James Cromwell) lies dead and the only suspect is 'Sonny' a Series 5 robot with some surprising circuitry (played by Alan Tudyk).
The death is declared a suicide, but Spooner refuses to give in. suddenly the automated world turns on the detective, whose unlikely ally is Dr. Calvin, a robopsychologist responsible for the psyches of masses of robots about to be distributed around the planet. One hair-raising escape after another propels the story along until viewers find themselves at a surprisingly reflective conclusion. Not exactly classical Asimov, but a great story nonetheless.
Will does a good job as Spooner, but he is upstaged by Moynihan's performance. And both are blown away by Tudyk and the animators performance as Sonny. As you watch Sonny develop from being slightly more simpatico than the scenery into a full-blown personality there are countless moments of surprise. Moynihan and Smith do their best, but from the moment Sonny turns to Spooner and says "Thank you... you said someone not something." The film belongs to the robots.
Excellent animation and CGI create a world that is a retro version of the future - perhaps exactly what Asimov imagined rather than what we would now. The result is a compelling mix of the outré and the mundane that sticks in the mind just as Sonny's wink does.
This is not just an action film. Threaded through it are the same questions that Asimov raised about the nature of self and intelligence. Robots may never be human, but there are far more than furniture. And if their thought processes are alien, they are more than the sum of their programming. The result is one of the more carefully thought out science fiction films in recent times.

3.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining and imaginative, but the same old Will Smith.,
No one of consequence (Cincinnati) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I, Robot (Widescreen Edition) (DVD)
I watched this one with my family over the weekend and, quite frankly, had a ball. Yeah, to some extent it's a movie with a message, but mainly it's just plain entertaining. If you try to read too much into it, you'll miss the opportunity for a good old-fashioned sci fi romp.
Fast forward to the year 2035. The monolithic company "U.S. Robotics" has put NS-4 domestic assistant robots into mass production, so much so that they are commonplace "members" of American society. Their artificial intelligence is designed to be as much like humans as possible, but is regulated by the "3 laws" programming that is hardwired into every robot. These laws are: 1. To protect human life above all; 2. To obey human commands except if it would violate law 1; and 3. To protect its own existence unless doing so would violate laws 1 or 2. The laws seem a foolproof way to ensure that the robots would never pose a threat to humanity. But all that changed when the man billed as the father of robotic technology and the 3 laws turns up dead in a very public, and very suspicous, manner, just as the new and improved NS-5 model is about to flood the market. The death is quickly written off by all concerned as a suicide. All except detective Dale Spooner, this is.
Being a good cop and a sharp detective, Spooner (played by Will Smith) in not content that the professor's death was a suicide, and begins investigating with the lead suspect, an NS-5 robot named "Sonny". Sonny's intelligence is so advanced, and his "emotions" so well simulated, that he appears to have something resembling a human soul. Spooner believes that Sonny killed the professor, and sets out to prove it. His (over)zealous approach to the task, coupled with his deep distrust of robots and their manufacturer, quickly lands him in hot water with some powerful people. Some difficult and destructive encounters with the metallic menaces leave him looking like an obsessive paranoiac, and ultimately result in his suspension from the police force.
Spooner continues his chase nonetheless, following a series of clues left by the dead professor, as step by step the mystery begins the unwind. All along the way are some great action sequences, plot twists and one-liners. However, except for Will Smith's character (which is the same as it has been in every film he has done since "Men in Black"), nothing about the story is predictable. When the final shoe drops, most viewers will be pleasantly surprised by the unexpected ending.
All in all, I really enjoyed this movie. It was a wild ride with lots of great sci fi treats and effects. The only downsides were the lack of character development on any signficant level -- this is a purely plot-driven movie -- and the fact that Will Smith essentially played himself, much as he always does. Still, it's worth seeing. I certainly don't regret the investment of two hours.

1.0 out of 5 stars This review is for the 3D Version - HORRIBLE - Don't waste your time!...,
This review is from: I, Robot (Two-Disc Combo: Blu-ray 3D/ Blu-ray + DVD) (Blu-ray)
I've proudly collected most all 3D Blurays available in the US since the beginning. I must say that I ROBOT is the worst 3D conversion I've ever experienced. I actually sold it on ebay for $9. It looked like a pop-out book - simply unsatisfactory. FOX/SONY has boasted about their new techniquest to convert 2D Classics to 3D classics. Note to Fox/Sony: PLEASE DON"T RUIN ANY FURTHER CLASSICS IN YOUR CATALOG WITH THIS QUALITY CONVERSION. I was so Dissappointed - a Great Movie in a horrible 3D presentation.
Sony/Fox should take some pointers from Pixar or James Cameron for the future 2D- 3D conversion. You thought Last Airbender 3D was bad - experience I-ROBOT and it makes the Airbender look like a classic. Shame on you Fox/Sony - Give us better quality 3D Conversions and we'll buy them.

4.0 out of 5 stars Smith in another SF blockbuster that never fails to entertain,
Jvstin "Paul Weimer" (Twin Cities, MN United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I, Robot (Widescreen Edition) (DVD)
An action/police procedual movie "inspired" by the work of Issac Asimov, and starring Will Smith.
I was reluctant to see this movie for a long time, until my friend Bridgette convinced me that it was worth watching. My reluctance came from the fact that the movie is very unlike the original Asimov stories, with only the Laws of Robotics and a few names making the transition.
The movie stars Smith as Del Spooner, Chicago police officer who has a real grudge against robots. This is hinted at in the opening title sequence, and is later explained in full detail just why Del has a problem with robots that no one else seems to share or understand. His boss at the precinct can't control him, his beloved grandmother chides him for his attitude, and he rubs everyone and everything raw, especially when it comes to the mechanical entities which now dominate Chicago and the rest of the U.S. in 2034.
So when Robot inventor Dr. Alfred Lanning (played in holograms by James Cromwell) dies in an apparent suicide, but asking for Del in his death message, Del's dislike for robots is put to the test as he visits the gargantuan building that holds US Robotics. Del's abrasive personality and style are matched against the cool and collected Dr. Calvin (Bridget Moynihan). It seems at first that Del's presence is useless and worse than useless. However, the apperance of Sonny (Alan Tudyk) and evidence suggesting that Lanning could not have committed suicide starts a chain of action sequences and investigations that reveal an audacious plan involving the latest model of robot to be released...
While the movie is 65% action and police procedural, and 30% science fiction, the movie does have a small dose of philosophy and the spirit of the original Asimov work As a minor spoiler, I will reveal here that, while not put directly in those terms, the movie's plot revolves around the "0th law". The first time I saw the movie, I recognized this immediately, and on this re-viewing, I appreciate that Proyas (who also directed Dark City (New Line Platinum Series) subtly inserted this distillation of the three laws. Proyas is a great director even if this movie, with its car chases and pyrotechnics does not play to his greatest strengths.
Cromwell does fine as a hologram, Moynihan does okay as Calvin. Tudyk provides a human face to Sonny the robot. Still, this movie, like many of his movies, belongs to Smith's Del Spooner. Smith is as always a protagonist which the viewers can follow. Even if, unlike many of his roles, Del's personality and history have a dark edge that (until this movie) Smith had never really explored before in movie roles. I note wryly that this is the second SF movie he has been in that he has been a police officer. (Men in Black (Deluxe Edition) being the first).
The movie IS a summer blockbuster type movie, but definitely in the upper tier of that subset of movies. The movie doesn't fail to entertain and I enjoyed it a lot.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Three Laws Face the Future 50 Years On,
This review is from: I, Robot (Widescreen Edition) (DVD)
Australia director Alex Proyas (Dark City, The Crow) has with his film "I, Robot" combined a large enough budget with a desire to tell a good story, to make an intelligent Hollywood blockbuster. Large sections of it are a CGI-driven theme ride of special effects, but unlike other big budget films like "van Helsing" or "Bad Boys II", they don't overwhelm the story, which binds them together. They complement each other.
This story is set in 2035 Chicago. It is a familiar backdrop, because the production and design of the film acknowledges the future will also have a history. Except that although some of the stylish grey computers may look like Note Books or even iPod's, but are instead robots which will do everything from walking your dog, to chasing after you if you leave home without your asthma medicine.
Detective Dale Spooner (Will Smith) is a man damaged in ways which aren't at first apparent to us. Returning to duty after injury, he now harbours a paranoid mistrust of robots only drawn out as the film progresses. In this Smith gets to show us he can act as well as make us laugh. This mistrust is the reason given by the holographic suicide note of robot designer Dr. Lanning (James Cromwell) calls him to the crime.
Alone in his laboratory before his death except for his robots, it doesn't take Spooner long to discover the hiding NS-5 robot Sonny (a CGI-generated character voiced by Alan Tudyk) who he is certain killed Lanning. Not believed by anyone, especially robot psychologist Susan Calvin (Bridget Moynahan brilliantly portraying a person relearning her emotions on the run) so begins a murder investigation that leads to the brink of robo-revolution.
Somehow in an action thriller, Proyas has managed to retain the spirit and themes of the 1950 Isaac Asimov book on which the film is based. Asimov wasn't really interested in the mechanics of robots (he was a chemistry graduate), but instead their effect on us, as they became part of society. Sonny is the first robot able to think for itself. Although it doesn't develop a violent Terminator-like desire for self-preservation (that happens in a more Skynet like computer), Sonny is alien.
A grittier Dark City or The Crow like film would of explored this further. But instead of ending his film with a Will Smith rap song, Proyas leaves us wondering what will happen to Sonny, and hoping for a sequel.

5.0 out of 5 stars Here is what you have been waiting for.,
Dan "Longsword" (USA, Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I, Robot (Widescreen Edition) (DVD)
Given that it only claims to be `suggested by' the short stories of Isaac Asimov, anyone expecting I, Robot to have all but a tenuous connection to the work of the visionary Jewish-American writer, will be a little bit disappointed. Although the film's plot hinges on Asimov's 3 Laws of Robotics (which suggest that a robot can never harm a human), from here Asimov and I, Robot part company. Yet this is pretty much the only criticism that can be levelled against the film. For on the whole, I Robot is that rare of beasts: a fun but intelligent action film, populated by actors who divest their characters with more than one basic emotion.
In this, the latest film from director Alex Proyas, the world circa 2035 has developed a considerable reliance on robotic `Automated Domestic Assistants'. They have become a trusted part of everyday life; cleaning homes, walking pets and basically doing everything that humans can no longer be bothered to do.
On the eve of the release of the latest model robot, the NS-5, Dr Alfred Lanning, the father of robotics, seemingly commits suicide. Called into investigate is homicide detective Del Spooner (Will Smith) a cop who distrusts technology, especially in the form of robots. Aided by robot psychologist Dr Susan Calvin and a rather special NS-5 named Sonny, Spooner begins to investigate further, following the breadcrumbs of evidence that have been left by Lanning from beyond the grave.
In terms of narrative, although some will decry the dumbing-down of Asimov's ideas, the very fact that a big budget movie revolves around the cracks of a seemingly unbreakable circle of logic in the 3 Laws is, within itself, a laudable achievement. In a world populated by empty, vacuous action films, it's refreshing to see a production that tries to inject proceedings with at least a modicum of intelligence.
This intelligence, however, doesn't cause I, Robot to forget that it's supposed to be a blockbuster, and the film includes a couple of cracking action sequences. These are aided by the superb special effects employed throughout the film. In particular, with Sonny, I, Robot can boast what is possibly the most impressive CGI creation ever committed to celluloid.
The film's standout asset, however, is its leading actor. For Will Smith is, to coin a phrase, the complete package. He has the impressive body shape that all action stars need to make their physical engagements believable, but in addition he has an insouciant bravado and a comedy timing that is all his own. Most importantly, unlike so many of his contemporaries, the man can act. As such, Smith moves seamlessly from kicking ass, to dropping wisecracks, to investing his character with complex emotional responses. As countless flops have shown, films resplendent with great effects still come a cropper without a solid performance to ground proceedings. And Smith delivers his performance in spades.
There is a slim chance that by trying to be an intelligent action film, I, Robot will attempt to please too many and end up satisfying none. However, if you fancy a bit more meat on your big-budget summer blockbuster bones, I, Robot is what you've been waiting for.

4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Good,
This review is from: I, Robot (Widescreen Edition) (DVD)
First of all, I haven't read Isaac Asimov's "I, Robot," so I don't have any basis on which to compare the book to the film. However, I have watched many science fiction flicks. I enjoy adventures such as the original "Star Wars" trilogy, action flicks like the recent "Resident Evil: Apocalypse," and the type of sci-fi that leaves you in a reflective mood, such as "Close Encounters of the Third Kind."
I expected "I, Robot" to lean towards the "Resident Evil" genre of sci-fi. Plenty of shoot'em up action and brainless explosions that are good for a Sunday afternoon, but won't expect you to think too much. Add to the fact that Will Smith is in the starring role, and I expected the action to be hopped up on streetwise, smarty-pants humor. Imagine my surprise when, after viewing the film, I was amazed at how really good this flick is.
Granted, it is full of fast-paced action that any Playstation fan would jump with glee for, but it also has a really great murder mystery aspect to it that leaves you questioning just who the bad guy really is. Also, Smith's token smart mouth is toned down a little, and I actually enjoyed watching him on the screen. He seems to have finally matured into an adult, and his face is finally showing a little age, which makes it easier to believe in him as a toughened cop.
The story starts out with Smith's character, Spooner, investigating the murder of a brilliant scientist responsible for introducing personal robots into society. These robots provide companionship, do manual labor, and serve as all-around go-to's when needed. Of course, Spooner believes this reliance on robots is only the beginning of something horrible down the road. He immediately suspects one of the newest robotic creations to be the murderer of the good doctor. He, along with a fellow employee of the deceased doctor, goes out to find who or what did the deed and why they did it. What follows is a quickly paced action film that has plenty of intelligence for the viewer with an I.Q. above the average moviegoer.
The story does start out somewhat slow, but it picks up about thirty-minutes in on both the action and intellectual levels. Don't worry, you can still watch this as a brainless flick, but its story is so good that you'll be hard pressed not to follow it.
The special effects are fun to watch. It is amazing how life-like the robots are. Sonny, the murder suspect, manages to win over even the toughest critics with his human emotions and actions. I forgot that he wasn't real while watching the movie, making this story that much easier to digest.
The DVD itself is sparse on extras. There is a little "making of" documentary and a stills gallery. There's also a commentary provided for those folks who have nothing better to do. Honestly, I glance at some extras on DVDs, but I hardly look at them more than once. If you're like me, you won't miss the movie trailers, cast filmographies, or other fluff that is sometimes put on these discs. I buy these things for the films on them, not to learn why certain scenes are left on the cutting room floor.
In closing, buy this flick if you like intelligent murder mysteries with a twist. If you like sci-fi flicks in general, this movie won't let you down. If you're an action fan, this motion picture has plenty of that, too.
Highly recommended.

swingreen "swingreen" (Brooksville, FL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I, Robot (Widescreen Edition) (DVD)
Although I read Asimov when I was young, I didn't recall enough of it to spoil the movie for me. In fact, I read elsewhere that the movie only loosely follows pieces of Asimov's famous short story collection.
That being said, I loved the movie - it was highly entertaining, and a little philosophical, but not over-the-top philosophical like AI was (and nowhere near as lengthy). Will Smith does his usual fine job on screen, so you won't be disappointed with the acting. Don't listen to the critics who warned you away from seeing this movie - they were wrong again, as usual.
It didn't occur to me when I read Asimov years ago, but I finally "got" the significance of Dr. Calvin's name... John Calvin was a theologian of the reformation who argued that humans are pre-destined by God, and therefore do not have free will. Asimov's Dr. Calvin believes that the three laws of robotics make it impossible for a robot to have their own free will, and in a sense pre-destines their fate with humanity. Oh well, enough philosophy for a simple movie review. You'll have to see the movie if you want to know more.
The DVD also comes w/ some nice featurettes on the making of the movie, cast & director interviews, the writings of Asimov on robots, and various other of the usual things the studio throws in whenever they have some space left over on the disc.
My final recommendation is: five stars for the movie, and four stars for the supplemental material and packaging. This will make a great Christmas present for that sci-fi fan in your family.

These were long in the making, and still not perfectly fitted, but close. So close. Sewing pants is easy. Fitting is tough. After a day of wearing them, the stretch cotton became much to baggy for my liking. I have enough to try again for a perfect fit, and once done, this pattern should prove to be quite versatile.
I interlined the trousers with an orange stretch lining, using this ingenious method, encasing the raw edges. The crotch was simply serged and pressed to the side. I shortened the side zip so that it didn't end on my widest part. And instead of self facing, I used red Petersham ribbon. It feels divine on the skin!
I'm still going to consider these a wearable muslin until I get the fit just so. Of course, there's more over on the bloggy blog.

Thanks for the link to that underlining method. The inside looks so nice. I think the fit looks pretty good. And I love the color!
Feb 16, 2012, 06.08 PMby threadsquare
It's brilliant, right?! I hope to perfect the fit soon :)
Feb 15, 2012, 07.31 AMby Ralf Schmitz
great fit! great pair of trousers! lovely color and very well finished (look at the inside! WOW!!) i am impressed!
Feb 16, 2012, 06.08 PMby threadsquare
They're a work in progress, but thanks! You have to try the interlining method… I know you'll love it!
Feb 14, 2012, 11.27 PMby nessys
Well – I think you nailed the fitting! They do look fab on you and the colour is gorgeous! That red lining is is fantastic! Lovely Darl! There is NO WAY I would ever get up the gumption to sew, let alone fit, trousers! You are very clever! xxx
Feb 16, 2012, 06.07 PMby threadsquare
Sewing them is ridiculously easy. Fitting? Ugh! I wish an expert could come over and point out exactly what is going on! I'm still working on getting them with nary a drag line!

Senior Accounting Students Awarded Business Excellence Scholarships
Two seniors from the St. John Fisher College School of Business have received prestigious scholarships for their display of business leadership and academic excellence. Jacqueline Cowley was this year's Rochester Area Business Ethics Foundation (RABEF) Scholarship Award recipient, and M. Brendan Kazmierski received the Beta Gamma Sigma (BGS) Scholarship. Both students are accounting majors, and have been named the 2013-14 co-liaisons of the BGS College chapter.
The RABEF Scholarship is awarded to a deserving student that exhibits high ethical standards while promoting the value of business ethics to a future generation of leaders. Cowley currently serves as the Chair of the Accounting Club and attends leadership forums at various accounting firms. She also holds a leadership position on the Teddi Dance for Love Committee, and volunteers her time at Camp Good Days and Special Times over the summer. Cowley says she strives for integrity, while being a leader, in order to be a positive role model for her community.
"Integrity is a value that I carry with me in everything I pursue, and it is a value that everyone looks for in any kind of business or personal relationship," says Cowley.
The BGS Scholarship is given to deserving student members from each chapter who are currently enrolled in a business administration program at an AACSB International-accredited college or university. Kazmierski currently holds the role of a captain on the men's varsity soccer team and volunteers with youth teams in the area. He said he views BGS as more than just a résumé item, but also as an opportunity to instill integrity, wisdom, and lifelong learning in other members.
"It is also a chance for students to step up and be a leader to help others identify their strengths and move out of their comfort zone," he added.

I made this capelet for my daughter's Halloween costume last month. She hosted her party as Poison Ivy, a villainous character devised by DC Comics in 1966 and enemy to Batman!
The construction was very similar to making a circle skirt. I made it all the more tricky by using very slippery polyester satin…. nightmare to sew right sides together!
More info and a how-to on my blog, just in case you fancy making one yourself! ;-)
Polyester satin, ribbon for ties and a couple of glitzy buttons.

Saint-Martial House Rental Photos and Description
4 (+2) people, 2 bedrooms, swimming pool
The vacation house 'Bastide' is located on the southern slope of the picturesque, medieval village of St. Martial, in a complete quiet area. On the ground floor, there is a large dining room (30 m²) with integrated kitchen. From here, you can reach the comfortable bathroom, the sunny south terrace (20 m²) and the small, cosy bedroom. On the first floor, there is a large, tastefully furnished living room (30 m²) and the second bedroom. At the mezzanine under the roof, there is a bed sofa. St. Martial has an idyllic location, in the middle of the ever green oak and chestnut woods, shaped by cultivated terraces. Around the Roman church from the 12th century, there is a row of old, picturesque houses. Directly in front of the vacation house, you can start your hiking tour in the untouched, diverse nature. Within close vicinity, you can refresh natural bathing ponds with clean waters, and in the evening, you can enjoy a romantic atmosphere on the terrace.
Special features: We offer our guests season specific fruit and vegetables from our biological crop growing. As we live here, we can provide you with information on the hiking and excursion possibilities, and we can give you a file with information. We talk German, French and English. In the spring and in the fall, there are a lot of hiking lovers here. The nature during these seasons shows its beautiful, various sides, and you can go to pick up boletus, chanterelles and edible chestnuts.
Painting and drawing courses: On request, we can offer individual assistance and painting and drawing courses for beginners and advanced. The course instructor has a long time experience with people of all ages, interested in art. The drawing courses are very suitable for everybody who hasn't have the chance by now, or for those who still feel uncertain. We will help you reach a level which will enable you to work on your own afterwards. The advanced people will have the chance to develop a style of their own. The remuneration depends on the number of the participants (small groups or individual class).
Special features: It is not possible to come directly in front of the house with big cars. However, within 200 m there is practically no traffic. On request, we can transport your luggage from the parking place to the house and back.

- October 2014 Yield Estimates for 2014/15 Crops:
Corn 174.2 bushels per acre, up 2.5 bushels from last month
Soybean 47.1 bushels per acre, up 0.5 bushels from last month
- October 2014 Price Estimates for 2014/15 Crops:
Corn $3.40 per bushel, down 10 cents from last month
Soybean $10.00 per bushel, steady with last month
Acreage Reduced, But Yields Offset (10/10/14)
Over the past couple of months, there had been significant discussion of crop acreage numbers and whether the USDA estimates would be adjusted downward. That adjustment occurred in the most recent reports. For corn, planted and harvested area were reduced by 700,000 acres. A similar downward adjustment took place for soybeans. But in both cases, the acreage losses were offset by higher yields so that total production continued to climb. The national average corn yield was raised 2.5 bushels to 174.2 bushels per acre. The corn yield estimates were raised in 22 states. And 22 states are projected to set state records as well. Illinois is projected at 200 bushels per acre. The jump in soybean yields isn't quite as dramatic, but the end result is the same, larger production. The national average is projected at 47.1 bushels per acre, up 0.5 bushels. 13 states are expected to have record yields.
Putting it all together, USDA estimates a 14.475 billion bushel corn crop and a 3.927 billion bushel soybean crop. Both, by far, the largest crops the country has ever produced. In comparison, the demand projections were little changed. Corn feed and residual use was increased by 50 million bushels. That was the only shift in projected demand for the 2014 crops. Estimates for the 2014/15 market year average prices dropped 10 cents for corn to a midpoint of $3.40 per bushel. For soybeans, the price estimates held steady, with a midpoint of $10 per bushel.
Livestock Economics (11/1/14)
Conditions in the cattle and hog finishing have improved dramatically in the past year after bouts of significant red ink during parts of the last several years. Those periods, of course, were characterized by significantly higher feed costs and, in some periods, relatively low output prices. Producers have long used ratios of livestock prices to corn prices or feed prices to gauge profitability. The steer & heifer-corn and hog-corn ratios have now returned to levels that, even relative to long-run historical levels indicate profits. The October ratio for cattle was 77% higher than one year ago. The hog ratio was 64% higher than one year ago.

(CNN) -- Iran's Navy ordered a helicopter from an unspecified foreign country to leave to leave the area of maneuvers it is conducting in the Persian Gulf, the semi-official Fars News Agency reported Monday.
"The helicopter ignored the first two warnings but left the area after the third and severe warning," Fars quoted Rear Adm. Seyed Mahmoud Musavi, the deputy commander of operations for Iran's Navy, as saying.
The incident occurred Sunday, according to Fars.
Fars only described the helicopter as belonging to a foreign country outside the Middle East region.
The drills are the largest ever planned by Iran and are being staged in an area that stretches from the eastern part of the Strait of Hormuz in the Persian Gulf to the the Gulf of Aden, Fars reported last week.
The maneuvers began on Saturday.

Swiss Re Financial Services Business Group, a unit of reinsurer Swiss Re, has hired David Godfrey as chief risk officer.Godfrey, formerly group credit executive for JP Morgan Chase's European and Asian capital markets unit, heads risk management for Swiss Re's old New Markets, Asset Management, Investors and Capital Partners divisions.
"David adds an important dimension to our risk management activity, as convergence solutions become an increasingly prominent part of our business," claimed Jacques Aigrain, head of Swiss Re Financial Services Business Group. Aigrain also came from JP Morgan Chase and is currently firming up his management team.
But Swiss Re has seen few deals in its convergence finance business in recent months, with the structural overhaul seeming to have steered focus somewhat away from deals.
Godfrey was responsible for all credit risk monitoring and approval for JP Morgan Chase's equity and bond underwriting, loan origination, market making and trading activities for Europe and Asia. He previously headed merchant and corporate banking at SBC until 1992.He will work out of London.

Hoped for more
My companion and I were in the area and decided to look for some risotto and pasta again. We chanced on this place and decided to give it a try.
Ambience and setting are simple, good for friends and colleagues to hang out for lunch I guess. But I'm not sure the prices make a good everyday lunch/dinner for working people in the area.
Service was fine with the occasional smile and all but I didn't quite like...

If she cares, and not that she needs to, perhaps Salma should take a hair lesson from these photos if anything. Sure, the dress may not be entirely flattering, but the real culprit is the hair/mop on her head. As a rule of thumb, if you wouldn't have to change your hair to attend a Howard Stern Impersonator Party, it's probably not the best it can be. In other news, isn't it a little early in the year for espadrilles?

Auditor praises Vt. action on tax districtsMay 20,2013MONTPELIER Vermont State Auditor Doug Hoffer is praising lawmakers for passing legislation to clean up glitches in the states so-called tax increment financing program.
Tax increment financing is a public financing method that provides communities with a means to fund redevelopment and infrastructure improvements. A community is allowed to borrow money against the future growth in property tax revenue within a designated TIF district that is made possible by the improvements.
Last year, then-Auditor Tom Salmon issued a report saying that some cities and towns had not handled their TIF districts properly and therefore owed money to the state education fund a finding disputed by the municipalities.
Hoffer said the bill passed by lawmakers should clear up ambiguities in the law that likely contributed to the problems.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER New management plans for a vast section of Vermonts remote Northeast Kingdom an...

The New York Times bestselling collection of Ronald Reagan's letters—a definitive look at a man, an era, and a presidency.
Ronald Reagan may have been the most prolific correspondent of any American president since Theodore Roosevelt, having likely written more than 10,000 letters in his lifetime to a wide array of friends and family, politicians, private citizens, and children. Honest, open, and heartfelt, Reagan's letters reveal a man who felt most comfortable and natural with pen in hand, and a man who reached out to friend and foe alike throughout his life. Reagan: A Life in Letters is as important as it is astonishing and moving.

POSTED: Tuesday, July 31, 2012 --- 11:00 a.m.
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Gov. Scott Walker says the process for reviewing complaints against sitting state Supreme Court justices must be one that instills confidence, but he won't say whether changes should be made.
Walker was asked Tuesday whether he thinks an independent panel out to be established to hear ethics cases against Supreme Court judges.
Two members of the state Supreme Court have recused themselves from considering charges that fellow Justice David Prosser violated judicial ethics when he allegedly wrapped his hands around the neck of Justice Ann Walsh Bradley last year.
If one more steps aside, the case may end due to lack of a quorum.
Walker says he's hesitant to tell a separate branch of government how to operate, but whatever ethics complaint process is in place should instill confidence.

"We ordered the matching birthday invitations with these return address labels and loved them. They shipped quickly and are of great quality. Tiny Prints is awesome!"
"I got these for my husband, for his business...as a surprise and he loved them. A nice looking return address label..works great."
"This label is exactly how it looks on line. It's simple yet cute! It matches perfectly with the pink invitation for my daughter's birthday party!"
"The labels matched the birth announcements perfectly. I liked that I was able to change the font. The only thing I was a little disappointed with is that the font seems really small and not very bright. So I would suggest making the font as big as you can and perhaps going with a brighter color."
"I used this for my daughter's birthday invitations. I changed the font for her name (I think it was called Ana Cherie or Ana Claire) and it turned out so cute!"
