Apparently, WWE likes what they see in Prince Devitt, and a developmental contract has been placed on the table for the international star, who has made quite a name for himself in New Japan. He's currently hanging out with some friends backstage at Impact Wrestling this week, but he's expected to make his decision soon.
While he is heavily rumored to be signing a developmental contract with WWE soon, Prince Devitt is currently attending the Impact Wrestling taping in Ireland going on today. He has friends within the company, and the rumor is that he will be meeting with them backstage later.
With all the controversy surrounding CM Punk and his departure from WWE, a rather interesting and possibly edited picture has surfaced online of the former world champion hanging out backstage with Karl Anderson, Prince Devitt, Luke Gallows and the Bullet Club, a stable making waves in Japan right now.

I have a lot of heart for this piece — it's one of my favorites. We've recently discontinued it in its former color scheme, but this new lighter, brighter version is now available in the shop as an 8×10 print!
I have a lot of heart for this piece — it's one of my favorites. We've recently discontinued it in its former color scheme, but this new lighter, brighter version is now available in the shop as an 8×10 print!
Hi guys,
Next time you check out our shop, you'll notice something awesome: all our prints, dish towels, tote bags and tiny card sets are CHEAPER! Yep, we've lowered prices on all those things by up to 25%! (I know. That pretty much never happens, right?) But we've made some changes to our production processes, and not to sound like a used car salesman or anything, but we wanted to pass the savings on to you.
Until now, we've been printing all our art prints in-house, but as we've grown, that's become an unmanageable process. (For example: I now own 3 $700 printers, at least one of which is broken at any given time.) So, going forward, our prints will be professionally printed in New England, and I'm really happy about this. With that change, as of July 4, we will no longer be offering 5×7 prints for sale, and we are also retiring several of our existing designs in all sizes. So if there's something you want that's being discontinued, we wanted to give you the opportunity to grab it while it lasts! You can find all our discontinued prints in the LAST CALL PRINTS section of the shop.
If you made it all the way through this post, you get a prize: 15% off any purchase through July 4 with the discount code DETAILSMATTER, valid on our site only. Yep, 15% off everything, even the stuff with new lower prices. Hooray!
Happy Summer!
I should start this off by noting that the person who inspired this post didn't say her professor gave her crappy advice. I said that. Here's the actual question I got from "Shirley" (not her real name) via email a few weeks ago:
"My question is related to the fact that I gave up hand lettering due to professors telling me what was "really" going to make me successful in the design industry, and I'm wondering if you had an experience like that ever, and how did you determine what to do?"
Oh man. Have I ever had experiences like that! In fact, the first semester I took printmaking in college, our school's beloved printmaking instructor was on sabbatical, and the class was taught by a visiting professor. This visiting professor and I did not see eye to eye on many things. I remember she gave me a C+ on the piece pictured below, a general linocut assignment, because she didn't think words belonged with imagery in fine art.
I mean.
This isn't Picasso, and yeah, maybe it's a little sacrilegious (I was 21!), but making a statement like "words don't belong on fine art" is just a silly, narrow-minded thing to say. It's a similar statement to "hand lettering isn't going to "really" make you successful in the design industry," in that I think it reflects a very narrow and dated idea of what "the design industry" is all about.
As someone who has experienced a few different facets of the design industry, there is one thing I know: There is no one path to success, especially in design. I mean, yes, if you want to get a staff design job at a design firm or an ad agency and work your way up, you need to know Adobe Creative Suite, etc. (and I use Photoshop every day, even though I'm hand-lettering), but beyond that, it is totally up to you what to focus on and what kind of designer you want to be. And if you don't want to follow that traditional path — like, if you want to make art out of condiments and take pictures of it and put them on Instagram and eventually end up with a book deal, or if you want to draw pictures of famous cats, or if you want to turn your blog into a product line? There are ways to do that now that didn't exist 10 years ago.
I honestly believe this: the thing that is "really" going to make you successful in the design industry is the thing you most love to do. If you want to be successful, whatever you do, you're going to be doing it a LOT — because that's generally how successful people get that way –so you'd better love it and you'd better have fun doing it.
(And to that particular professor who says you can't really be successful in the design industry doing lettering: I think Jessica Hische, Mary Kate McDevitt, Erik Marinovich, Katie Daisy, and Gemma O'Brien would beg to differ. I know I would.)
The sweet, bubbly and lovely Jenipher Lyn is a social media friend-turned real life friend (I love those!). She recently wrote and illustrated a book for tween and teen girls, filled with encouraging, loving and important messages, called "How Being Stubborn, Depressed and Unpopular Saved My Life."
Jenipher says:
As part of her "book launch blog party" (brilliant idea, btw!) Jenipher asked me to contribute a doodle and blog post about gratitude, the subject of her book's final chapter.
For those of us with more cynical tendencies, gratitude is one of those things that seems like it might fall into the category of "Pinterest spirituality." You know, inspirational quotes superimposed over pictures of nature that make you think "Yes! This will TOTALLY make my life better."
The bad news is that none of those quotes are going to make your life better, in and of themselves. (If that were the case, every person with a Pinterest account would have achieved permanent enlightenment by now.) But what I will say, from my own personal experience, is that every once in a while, one of those quotes might ring true for you, and inspire you to take action and change some stuff in your life that isn't working. And THAT is what's going to make your life feel better.
Having a daily, conscious gratitude practice — basically, counting your blessings instead of counting the ways the universe is screwing you — is super easy, free, and has made a gigantic difference in my own personal outlook.
I theoretically have a daily gratitude journal in which I write 5 things I'm grateful for that day, but realistically, I make mental lists while I'm sitting in traffic, and the journal is lost under my bed somewhere and covered in cat hair. I'm happy to report that mental traffic lists seem to work just as well. I also use gratitude as a reset button, on days when everything seems overwhelming and ridiculous and terrible. It's a good way to get my brain out of a Spiral of Awfulness. Even if the things I'm grateful for are, like, coffee with extra shots of espresso and the internet. That's okay. It's not really about WHAT you're grateful for. It's more about training your brain to replace "life sucks" with "thank you," because "thank you" feels so much better.
We live our lives moment by moment. (Trust me, there are lots of brilliant quotes about this that are way better than what I just said.) But it's true: the only time we REALLY have is the moment we're in, right now. Everything else is a memory or a projection. And my personal, independent research has concluded the fact below to be true.
All the new cards we debuted at the National Stationery Show are now available in our shop! In the next couple of weeks, we'll be adding all the rest of the new products: notepads, gift tags, postcard sets, and prints. And a new tote is coming in July. Here they are, for your perusal:
Altitude Summit, or "Alt Summit," or just "Alt," is a business conference for bloggers, creatives and designers held in Salt Lake City. Since its inception in 2009, it's expanded to include an online channel where folks can take ongoing classes from blogging and social media experts, as well as an entire online conference, as well as one-day Alt Design Camps on various topics held around the country. In the past, the flagship conference has always been held in January in Salt Lake City, but by popular demand, this year, they're holding a second conference in June. (And the keynote speaker is Martha Stewart!!!!!!)
I attended Alt in January 2013 for the first time, with pretty much no clue what I was getting into. I'd heard of the conference, and I'd seen photos of the fancy sponsored parties and very stylish-looking people looking like they were Having Fun!, but since I'm not really a blogger, I wasn't deeply involved in that world. I wasn't sure what to expect, or if the experience would end up being relevant for me. I'd just started contributing illustrations to Design Mom, which was really my primary connection to Alt: Gabrielle Blair, a.k.a. Design Mom, is one of Alt's founders.
Alt had been sold out for months when a friend posted on Facebook that a friend of hers needed to sell her ticket, and something in me said "you should go to this!" So. Despite not having any money and not really being a blogger, I bought her ticket. (I am in a constant process of learning that, as it turns out, logic isn't always the best way to make a decision. I'm as surprised as you are, seriously.)
At the time, I was still freelancing in advertising, and I had my etsy shop on the side. I'd also just run a successful Kickstarter project to get my Un-Tourist Scarves printed, so I was hoping that maybe I was going to start designing scarves for a living. But I really didn't know. I knew I wanted to draw and write and work for myself, but I had no idea how that was going to happen.
Leading up to the conference, I was full of second thoughts: I'm a horrible networker. I don't have a million cute outfits. I don't even have a blog. BLAH BLAH BLAH. But I went, and it was awesome. In addition to learning a ton about a ton of things, from 3D printing to Pinterest strategy, I made some great friends, made work connections with conference sponsors/speakers, including Chronicle Books and Michael Miller Fabrics, and got to meet one of my personal design heroes, Stefan Sagmeister, who gave one of the keynotes. And I left feeling like I still didn't know exactly HOW the next phase of my career was going to happen, but way more certain that it WAS going to happen.
Anyway! All of this is backstory to tell you that I'm returning to Alt next month, as a speaker. Yikes! I pitched them on me leading a roundtable session, which is basically just talking to a small group of 10 or 15 people. They have like 20 happening at once, it's really relaxed, and attendees can sit in on one, or move around to a few different ones during the session. I figured a roundtable would be a good, no-pressure way to go as a speaker, since I'm not, like, a SPEAKER.
But then they asked me to do a larger standalone presentation. Which is terrifying. But I'm gonna do it, because fear is an asshole. The general topic is my process of going from designer to product maker — bringing a product to market. But because there are a lot of different ways I can go with this, I'd love your feedback. If you were at my talk, what information would YOU most like me to share? Let me know in the comments, would you?
OK. Back to packing for the stationery show. Procrastination is so powerful, right?
Hi guys!
So the National Stationery Show starts in six days, and we've been busy figuring out all the millions of things that go into that, from booth lighting to press kits to last-minute sample printing. I launched my line last year at NSS, but leading up to the show, I was kind of blissfully ignorant about what I was walking into. A year ago, I was stressed and overworked because I'd just finished designing 45 cards in 6 weeks, and two weeks before the show, I was frantically reading random blog posts, trying to figure out what else I needed to do. Press kits? Mailers? OH CRAP, A CATALOG?!
I didn't even get to walk the show last year, since I was the only person manning my stuff, in my shared booth with my friends at Igloo Letterpress. I was like a booth subletter. I didn't have show giveaways, or a fancy mailer. I didn't even know what a show special was, until a buyer asked me if I had one.
This year, things feel different, because they are. I have a company now. We have our own booth (1544, holla!) and, unlike last year, people are paying attention to what we do. Which, for a while, was really stressing me out. As some of my retailer friends have pointed out, and as we've all seen on instagram thanks to the #nss hashtag, stationers REALLY stepped up the pre-show mailer game this year. I saw photos of so many amazing mailers, from custom-printed aprons to entire boxes of swag. We did a calendar poster, which a few folks asked to see in its entirety, so here you go:
The handy NSS hashtag also alerted me to the fact that some people are doing themed booths this year, which I didn't even know was a thing. So I spent a few days stressing out about not having a booth theme, and having plain white foam walls, and OMG what if we didn't do enough, and then I was like, dude, snap out of it.
Here's the thing: the Stationery Show is small enough that buyers are going to see your booth, regardless of how over-the-top your pre-show marketing is. Don't get me wrong: beautiful, themed booths are awesome. Crazy mailers are awesome. All of that stuff is great, and can be super fun to figure out. But it can also be overwhelming, especially if you're new to all this.
Which leads me to my point:
Last year, I didn't even have my own booth, and I DEFINITELY didn't have a theme, or live demos, or a kitten-petting happy hour, and it all worked out fine. Because when it comes down to it, the National Stationery Show is about your work, and getting it in front of buyers. Are you happy with your work? Does your booth show your products well? Does it have walls and lighting? Is it in the Javits? You are good.
At this point, you can't control what buyers are going to respond to (and believe me, there's stuff of mine that I LOVE that nobody buys!), so you might as well try to relax, have fun, and be proud of yourself. Because if you're headed to NSS to exhibit next week, I know you've worked your ass off to get there.
If you get a chance, come say hi! My work and I will be in Booth 1544, and I'd love to meet you.
Hi, friends!
Despite what I thought were my best efforts, that thing is happening where I've overcommitted myself again. Instead of approaching each day and task with clarity and intention per my nice little vision board, I've been doing the opposite, and the craziness has been mounting since before Christmas. So here is me, refocusing. I made the very difficult decision this week to back out of a huge project I had coming up on the horizon — a project that I was really excited about and that was a really great opportunity. But every time I thought about the deadlines on top of running my business and keeping up with new product releases, I felt like I was going to barf. There was a time when I would have pushed forward and made it happen, even if I made myself sick and miserable in the process, but I am choosing a different way. Hear that, universe? I AM CHOOSING A DIFFERENT WAY. (Picture me shaking my fist, but in a kind and benevolent manner.)
Okay! One reason things have been so crazy is that I just spent ten days in New York, exhibiting in the NYNOW wholesale gift show. It was our first show and the whole experience was fairly challenging and stressful, but we learned a lot. Which is what you say when you didn't make any money and your booth almost fell down, but you want to put a positive spin on the whole thing because life feels better that way. I will do a full post about it at some point, because lots of you guys have asked and I'm happy to share my experience, but I want to have a bit more perspective on the whole thing before I do that.
A high point of the show was when the lovely Nole Garey of Oh So Beautiful Paper came by our booth to chat and work her photographic magic. If you don't already read OSBP, you should check it out post haste. It's one of the best, most comprehensive resources out there for stationery appreciators, as well as those of us in the stationery industry. And if you're getting married or having a baby and need invitations/announcements? OMG GET OVER THERE NOW. It's a rabbit hole of paper amazingness.
I didn't take any photos of our booth because I was too busy being stressed out, but fortunately for me, Nole took some fantastic ones, and she was kind enough to include us in Part One of her multi-part NYNOW roundup. If you're curious about what stationery/gift trade show booths look like, or you want to see a glimpse of some new stuff coming this spring from powerhouse brands like Rifle Paper Co and Kate Spade as well as indie up-and-comers, head on over and check it out.
Here are a few of Nole's photos of our booth. When she took these, the walls were seriously being held upright by zip ties, boxes of catalogs, two Ikea tables, a few strategically placed illegal screws, and prayer. The magic of good photography: You can't even tell.

*DISCLAIMER: I am not an intellectual property lawyer (nor any other kind of lawyer) and this post should not be taken as legal advice or permission.*
I get asked a lot about the issue of using famous quotes on products, and this post is my attempt at shedding some light on this (very complicated) topic.
I know this isn't a fun thing to hear, but in most cases, the answer to the question "Can I legally use X quote on my products?" is going to be no, with a few exceptions (which I'll get to in a minute).
According to US copyright law, the legal rights to a quote belong by default to its author (or speaker). Quotes are considered intellectual property, which is protected under the law. This means that if you're not a quote's original author and you want to SELL something with the quote on it, one of two things must be true:
1: You have the author's written permission to use their words on your work. If you can't get the author's permission for any reason: they won't give it to you, the quote's owner is a movie studio (yes, this rule also applies to movie and TV show quotes, and song lyrics), they don't answer your email, they're dead, they're super famous, they're in hiding, etc., then Condition 2 must be met in order to legally use the quote:
2. The quote is no longer "owned" by the author and it has passed into what's known as the public domain, meaning it can be freely used by anyone for any purpose. When a quote passes into the public domain, it's almost always because it's old enough that its copyright has expired. (It doesn't have anything to do with whether the author is dead or alive.)
This is where it gets tricky. The following chart is from the University of North Carolina's website and illustrates how complicated it can be to determine whether something is in the public domain or not:
This chart makes my head hurt. If you break it down into its broadest and easiest rule to understand and remember, it is that works published before 1923 are in the public domain and are therefore legal to use. This is why there are 4 jillion products with old quotes like "Be the change you wish to see in the world" on them — I mean, that's a great quote, don't get me wrong, but it's also legally cleared for commercial usage, since Gandhi said it in 1906. (Yes, I know a lot of people claim he never even said it in the first place, but that's not the point.)
As you can see, there are other works published after 1923 that would fall under some of the other categories in this chart and would therefore be in the public domain, but unless you're an intellectual property lawyer or have one at your disposal, it's pretty hard to figure out what applies where. This is why, in my work, I follow the pre-1923 rule. People ask me all the time why I don't sell products with more modern quotes on them: this is why!
It's also important to note that attributing a quote to its author does not make it legal to use the quote, which is something I've been asked.
If you're not selling your work, you can almost always go ahead and use any quote on it you want, under what's known as the Fair Use Rule (more information about that here). (Again, I'm not a lawyer and this blog post is not a substitute for real legal advice.) If you want to use a quote on your wedding invitations or put a quote over a picture of a sunset and post it on social media, that's fine. But when you start profiting from someone else's intellectual property, you need to comply with intellectual property law.
What happens if you don't comply?
In some cases, nothing. It's up to the person you're quoting (or their estate if they're no longer alive, or the movie studio or company that owns the rights to the quote if it's from a movie or TV show, etc.) to go after people who are using their words on unauthorized products. This is why there are tons of Etsy shops selling stuff featuring Steve Jobs quotes, etc. — Steve Jobs' estate generally has more important things to do than look for people on Etsy who are violating his copyright.
However, the more work you sell, whether it's on Etsy or wholesale, the higher-profile you beome, and the more likely it is that you'll get busted for breaking the law. If this happens, the first step will generally be a cease-and-desist letter from the quote owner's attorney, telling you that you are in violation of copyright law and instructing you to stop selling the offending products, but there's also the possibility of getting sued and having to pay hefty settlement and legal fees.
Here's the thing, though: It is really not cool to profit from someone else's intellectual property without their permission, even if you can technically get away with it. If you're an artist, you'd be pretty pissed if another artist put your hand-lettering on their work and sold it without your permission — and with good reason! It's just a really unethical thing to do. And that, more than the fear of Steve Jobs' people coming after me, is why I don't do it. In fact, when I started to feel really boxed in creatively by being limited to using pre-1923 quotes, I started writing and selling my own stuff, which is what led to my card line and was the smartest thing I could have done!

I hope you guys found this useful! If you have a question about the legality of a specific quote or a specific piece of IP law, please ask an IP lawyer, because I can't give you legal advice. I can, however, tell you where to get my favorite pie in Los Angeles. (Maple custard at The Pie Hole!)
When I was a junior art director, I remember showing my creative director some print ads I'd designed. He pointed to the little abstract decorative element I'd created in the corner and said, "What is this and why is it here?"
"Um… It's just a thing. For visual balance? Because I like it?"
He told me that wasn't a good enough reason, and then we had a conversation about how every visual element in a print ad should always relate somehow to the content of the message. For example, if it was an ad for an airline and I created a decorative background pattern based on the shape of the plane's windows, great. But if it was just something I randomly made as decoration, it didn't work nearly as well.
I learned that when there was a strategic reason behind my artistic decision, it made the overall message more cohesive.
I use that lesson a lot when I'm coming up with product ideas. For example, I'm designing a screen printed tea towel collection right now. There are lots of screen printed tea towels out there that have illustrations of cute animals on them, or patterns, or pretty flowers, but none of those things have a bigger reason for existing beyond being decorative. (This works great for some other brands, but not mine.) Because my line is all about being insightful and relatable, I wanted the illustrations on my towels to relate back to their function/environment: cooking and the ways we experience the kitchen. So I started to come up with some observations and truths about kitchens, food and cooking, like:
–You always hear people say cooking is good stress relief, but I think it's kind of a pain and I'd rather lie on the couch and let someone else do it.
–I bet a lot of people wish they were the kind of person who cooks to relax. I kind of do.
–People take a ton of pictures of their food. A lot of them are terrible.
–Every time I use my fancy blender, I feel guilty about not using it more.
A lot of these observations didn't really go anywhere. That happens. But a lot of them did, which is how I came up with the ideas for my tea towels.
The first five towels are on sale now, and six more new styles are currently at the printer. They'll be added to the shop on January 1. Here's a sneak peek of a couple of the designs!
I am in the middle of writing a gratitude/Thanksgiving post so massive, I'm not finished with it yet — but in the meantime, I wanted to make sure you guys all know about our Black Friday/Small Business Saturday/Cyber Monday/Hanukkah/Thanksgiving sale. From Friday, 11/29 through Monday 12/2, you'll get 20% off your purchase of $20 or more when you enter the code FOODCOMA at checkout. This sale is also happening in my etsy shop, and we also ship internationally from there. Go forth and shop!
Much love and gratitude,
Hi guys!
I've been getting a lot of questions lately about my design and illustration process, so I thought I'd take a quick break from holiday insanity to answer.
I also wanted to touch on a related topic that's been on my mind a lot: I've been getting several emails a week from people who want to talk on Skype, over the phone, or in person about the stationery biz, my design process, my manufacturing sources, what to do when XYZ happens, etc., and I've struggled a bit with how to respond. I would LOVE to be able to give individual attention to all of these requests, but to be completely honest, running this business is pretty much taking everything I've got right now. If only there were 32 hours in a day — I would get SO much more done! In the future, I may take a cue from the brilliant Jessica Hische and set aside a half-day a week for consulting "office hours," but right now it's not part of my immediate plan. I'm hoping that as I cover more of your questions on this blog, it'll be a resource I can point people to.
So, if you've emailed me and I haven't responded, please know that it's not you! I'm trying to get back to everyone, but the holidays are in full effect and I'm prioritizing my time according to "most in my face" –> "least in my face."
SO! On to my illustration process. Fun fact: I don't use Illustrator. I'm self-taught in design programs, and I just never tackled the Illustrator learning curve when I was an art director. I can do basic things and fake my way through some of it, but unless I'm working on a rare client project where they need something vectorized, Illustrator doesn't enter into my process at all.
When I started illustrating, I was doing most of it by hand, scanning it, and cleaning up and finishing it in Photoshop. If you've ever done this, you know that it can be kind of a pain in the ass. So, last year, I changed it up. After trying out a Wacom Cintiq tablet owned by a friend of mine, I took the plunge. I hadn't made much money drawing anything yet, so it was a REALLY big deal to spend $1,000 on a tablet, but I have to say it changed my life — or at least the way I make work. It rules.
Behold the Cintiq! (This is the smallest one. They also come way bigger, but those cost as much as my car.)
The Cintiq is a flat monitor that plugs into your computer, and you can draw directly on its screen. I hold the Cintiq in my lap and draw on it with a digital pen, just like I'm drawing or painting in a sketchbook. I draw everything in Photoshop, and I use different brushes to get the effects I want. The pen is pressure-sensitive, so (after a pretty steep learning curve) it really does feel quite similar to drawing on paper.
I still sketch everything on paper by hand first, just so I can get the placement of various elements down. I have a million sketchbooks going at once and I'd love to say there's a system, but I really usually just write in the one closest to me at any given time. See, here's what I was working on last night:
This system has effectively replaced the draw-and-scan method for me, and I find that it works really well. I do miss painting with actual, non-digital paint, and I try to get in at least a couple of hours a week with my old-school materials just for my own sanity. But as someone who's generating a lot of work, having the freedom to work mostly in Photoshop has helped streamline my process immensely.
I hope this helped — if there's something you're curious about that I didn't cover, please feel free to ask in the comments!

Human Bio and Cough Syrup and a Few Of My Favorite Things
Huh. Third post today.
Well, I got some new cough syrup which I was much more excited about than I should have been but it seems to be working pretty well. I'm making a human bio flashcard set on quizlet currently, it's going pretty well. I know all the stuff- I'm feeling pretty ready for my test tomorrow.
On another note- my lips are all chapped and really weird. I haven't been wearing lip balm (I always wear honey-scented Burt's Bees. Always.) very much, so they're all bloody and like… Bleh. I love honey so much. It's got to be one of my favorite things. It's so sweet and it's good in tea and it's perfect. You know what else I like? Pomegranates. You know what? I'm just going to make a list (please note- these are things not people. You will not make the list if you are breathing (or, even if you're not breathing. I mean, I don't really know any cadavers or anything, but just in general- no people.)-
- Orange juice
- Coffee
- Tea
- Honey
- Pomegranates
- Honey lip balm
- Mints (specifically the Wintergree Altoid-smalls)
- Moleskine notebooks
- The Boston Red Sox
- Sharpie pens
- Cupcakes
- WordPress
- Google
- xkcd
- A Beautiful Revolution
- The New York Times
- Twitter
- Facebook
And now, mostly because I am sick of hyperlinking, I bid you goodnight.

Time for a Relative Breakout in Energy?
- Posted by JC Parets
- on January 15th, 2013
It might be about time for Energy to start making some moves. It's been well documented that the energy sector, specifically $XLE, has been underperforming the rest of the stock market for two solid years. But I think that enough pressure has built up during this recent consolidation that we can expect a major move in energy on a relative basis.
Take a look at this chart below. It shows Energy represented by the $XLE compared to the S&P500 $SPY. This 4-month wedge formation has an upper trendline following closely along the 50 & 200 day moving averages (blue & red dotted lines):
I think that the Relative Strength Index is also giving us a good sign as it has not reached oversold conditions since the beginning of the summer. This supports our belief that Energy has been, and still is in a bull market relative to the S&P500. A breakdown below this year's lows in relative prices would invalidate this notion. But a breakout above the above mentioned resistance factors would confirm the breakout and probably bode well for equities as a group.

Smelly wool suit trousers
I am a recent college grad, and Im new at dressing professionally. I have two pairs of wool suit trousers that are starting to smell. I tried spraying them with Febreze, and that works for a little while, but the smell always comes back. What should I do? read more
Bryan Ferrys black leather suit
I recently went to see the re-formed Roxy Music in concert. The always dapper Bryan Ferry was looking very stylish in a black leather suit that was cut, for once, like a real suit. Any recommendations on where one could find such an ensemble? read more
Steamer or iron for my suit pants
For years I used a steamer on my suit pants, until last year, when my wife suggested I use an iron. The iron works better than the steamer, but I am concerned about damaging the pants. Should I be concerned? read more
Late-40s-cut sport coats
Im wondering if anyone is currently producing sport coats similar to the styles popular in the late 1940s to early 50s. I like English and Italian suits for business, but for a more casual look Im attracted to the cuts and fabric choices that show up in flicks like L.A. Confidential and The Two Jakes. Im tired of combing vintage clothing stores hoping to find the right size. Any ideas? read more
What color suit to wear to your interview
I will be interviewing for an associate position at several large, traditional law firms in the fall. What color suit is proper for me to wear? I have been cautioned against wearing black or navy because they are power-suit colors and would be inappropriate in an interview. read more
Pocket watch with a two-piece suit
My girlfriend bought me a pocket watch for my birthday. I do not yet have a three-piece suit, but Id like to wear my gift anyway. Can I wear it with a two-piece suit? If so, how? And what about with a sport coat? read more
I cant keep from wrinkling my suits
I always buy what I think are decent suits, but no matter what I do they always look wrinkled. After only one wearing, the suits appear as if they are ready to go back to the dry cleaner. I sit at a desk all day, and after a lifetime of listening to my mother, I do sit up straight, so I dont think Im too hard on them. I commute via public transportation. Any recommendations? read more
Proper accessories with a blue seersucker suit
Can you settle a seersucker dispute? My wife insists that the only proper accessories with a blue seersucker suit are white bucks and suspenders. I protest, arguing that tan, brown or black slip-ons or penny loafers with a corresponding belt are most acceptable. So whos the seersucker? read more

Velvet suits
In Paris I saw several guys wearing suits that looked as if they were made of velour. I asked a friend about them, and he said they are actually fairly traditional. Obviously, these suits are not sufficiently dressy for a formal event, but someone in a job like mine—Im a college professor— could get away with one. Does the thought of a velour suit make your skin crawl? read more
Black one-button suit for a wedding
I recently purchased a black DKNY suit with one button. Would it be appropriate to wear to a black tie-optional wedding? What kind of tie should be worn with it? I had never seen a one-button suit before. Are they common? read more

Book Description:
Selected as one of 100 Books for Reading & Sharing in 2012 by the New York Public Library."Though there's no claim that this art style has any relationship to the original tale, it's an apt match. The book designer adapted the work to the printed page, keeping the intense blood red and ebony black. Each double-page spread takes on an exciting life of its own. A note provides background information on the tale, and an afterword tells the story of the illustrations with photographs of the original cloths. This unusual multicultural pairing packs a powerful punch." - Kirkus Reviews"I'm the fastest animal in the forest!" boasts Kanchil the trickster mouse deer. "And I challenge any animal to race me!" Who will step forward to accept this challenge, and can Kanchil be beaten?Illustrated in the exquisite Mata-ni-Pachedi style of ritual textile painting from Gujarat.

Sometimes, I feel like I'm late to the party. According to my new friend: OTTO VON SCHIRACH. It's "Tropical" & he's just happy I made it. I once got lost on the internet. I was originally looking of directions to Kush Wynwood and somehow made a discovery that my booty and ears are still thanking me for. I found the video "Salpica" … or better yet… Salpica found me. A video highlighting EVERYTHING I love about Miami. Bass, colors, the people, chusmeria, bearded super star drag queens from Hialeah ((Instagram Shout out: @bassfunkdaddy & @juleisyykarla)) and the beautiful streets of my home THE 305. Longest story ever …short…I tweeted him..he tweeted me…his people tweeted me…I tweeted them…and the rest is history. Here is OTTO VON SCHIRACH's newest song: TROPICAL. Listen. Dance…and for three minutes immerse yourself in some seriously delicious music.
@ottovonschirach is unapologetic with his music.
He represents a side of Miami that everyone loves.
He's from outer space.
He's gonna be your new favorite.
As my new friend would say: Un tipo tiburon!

Storms fade with clear skies abroad
Updated On: Mar 24 2013 08:35:00 AM EDT
After a wild Saturday of storms left hundreds of trees down in north Central Florida and a deluge of rain and marble-size hail in St. Johns County, Sunday's forecast includes the potential of more severe weather.
The possibility of heavy rainfall and the chance of storms has Channel 4 extending its Weather Authority Alert into a second day.
Channel 4's entire viewing area is under a wind advisory, and tornado watches issued overnight for areas west of the Suwannee River could be extended east into the metro Jacksonville area on Sunday morning.
A severe thunderstorm warning was issued about 8:30 a.m. for Columbia, Hamilton and Suwannee counties and much of south central Georgia. The systems, which includes thousands of lightening strikes, is moving to the east and north.
Gusts of wind up to 60 or even 70 mph are also possible.
Thunderstorms on Sunday could bring hail as large as dimes, quarters or even golf balls to the region.
Hail on Saturday in Bradford and St. Johns counties caused some damage to cars, windows and siding of homes.
St. Augustine was also hammered 3.6 inches of rainfall on Saturday -- a new one-day record for the date. Jacksonville International Airport reported 2.3 inches of rain. Just over one inch was reported at Jacksonville Beach, while most of the other reporting stations around northeast Florida reported three-quarters of an inch or less.
All the wet weather is being initiated by a warm front to our south and a cold front to our west.
Channel 4's Blake Mathews says the fronts will move off the coast Sunday afternoon and the skies will clear by sunset. Much cooler weather and even a few light, inland freezes are possible by the middle of the week.

November 28, 2014
JANESVILLE, Wis. (AP) -- A Janesville man who's been under investigation ever since he allegedly claimed to have killed three people has been charged in one homicide -- the bludgeoning death of his 21-year-old girlfriend last month.
A court commissioner on Friday set bond for Clayton J. Courtney at $500,000.
Courtney is charged with first-degree intentional homicide in the case. He's already charged with attempted first-degree intentional homicide, stemming from allegations that he stabbed his roommate in the shoulder and foot last month.
Courtney is accused of killing Britney Cross and leaving her body behind a vacant building along the Rock River.
Prosecutors asked for a $1 million cash bond. Defense attorney Joshua Klaff called the amount "absolutely inappropriate" and sought a more modest amount.

I haven't replaced my laptop since Magsafe was introduced, but I have envied the Magsafe connector ever since Apple announced it (was it really only 3 years ago!?). It was such a simple and elegant solution to one of the worst things about notebooks. Hopefully Magsafe 3 is introduced to resolve these faults before I finally spring for a MacBook.
MagSafe 2: My love hate relationship with Apple's current power connector
Anyone who owns, or has owned a recent MacBook will be familiar with the MagSafe. Apple's take at the laptop charger, and something in my experience that comes with a very distinct love and hate relationship. The latest incarnation, MagSafe 2, one would anticipate being an improvement on the originals, the development of an idea.
But, instead, it's a product that drives many of us to frustration and despair. The reviews section of the Apple Store website is living proof of that. So how can something so good be so bad at the same time?
The loving relationship
Having come from a lifetime of generic Windows laptops – and even iBook and Powerbook efforts from Apple – where chargers had a less than strong survival rate, the Magsafe seemed like the answer to the problem. I first encountered it on a 2010 MacBook Air. Magnetic, slim and clinging to the side of the MacBook, personally speaking it cured the biggest issues experienced previously with laptop chargers.
Most previously had seen some kind of plug or pin that had to go inside the laptop charging port. And, through time or accidental fall, these would become bent, snapped off completely or the plastic housings could crack open and expose dangerous parts within. Indeed, by the end of the life of my own 11-inch Apple iBook the charger couldn't be removed, since it'd never go back in properly if it was.
And so the love affair with the Magsafe began. Easy attaching and detaching meant that whatever the hurry – or the fall – the charger easily detatched from the laptop. In a house with animals, sadly a falling laptop is always a risk.
And so, you'd think the Magsafe 2 would be even better, right?
So where did it go wrong?
Personally speaking, the Magsafe 2 is the worst possible 'upgrade' before we even get to the apparent issues and general consumer dissatisfaction with it. We've gone from a sleek little connector that barely protruded from the side of your MacBook to one that does, and one that one clumsy writer knocks out about 8 times a day. Granted, my MacBook Pro sits raised from my desk, which does seem to increase the issue, but still.
That never happened with the first generation, and with the relatively weak magnetic connection the smallest thing can knock it out. Kicking the lead under the desk, a friendly cat coming to say hello, brushing past it with your hand, everything seems to knock it out. Beyond being annoying – even more so by the end of the day – it can't be the best situation for the charger either.
Something possibly tied in to the frankly awful reviews the Magsafe 2 gets on the Apple Store site. Overheating, weak cables, fraying rubber coatings, there seems to plenty of issues frustrating plenty of people. And a replacement isn't cheap. My own gets very hot and sometimes refuses to actually charge my MacBook Pro when it's plugged in. Knocking it out is annoying, but faults in function are beyond that.
Your experiences
So, consider this a sort of crowdsourcing exercise. We're stuck with the Magsafe 2, like it or not, but how bad is it for you guys? Do you have annoyances, issues or all out faults with yours, or have you been lucky enough to have a trouble free life with what seems to be one of Apple's more contentious products? Let me hear your experiences in the comments below!

MagSafe 2: My love hate relationship with Apple's current power connector
Damn. I really envy you! I've considered buying a new one on the chance mine is just one of those bad units...but the community reviews don't exactly make you want to part with the cash
Same here, I've never had issues. Although my cord goes behind my desk and not easily accessible by foot, I have never had it pop out. I do like the original better because of the slim design, this one does tend to get in the way with my speakers(I connect my MacBook Pro to a external monitor with external speakers). I hope they go back to the original design or even better make it flush with the macbook.
Actually, Richard. The first MagSafe was not the one in your 2010 MBA. The first MagSafe was a plastic one, built for the original polycarbonate MacBooks and non-unibody MacBook Pros. That one had an extremely strong magnet. It was the best one yet and never fell out. I loved it to death on my white MacBook.
The MagSafe that you love is the L-shaped one. It's okay, but it falls out way too easily. I don't like it because it just falls off on the side if the cord gets tugged. Because you positioned it facing the back, it was easier to knock out and sometimes a hard enough tug would bring your laptop with it.
Now, the MagSafe 2 is a return to the original MagSafe design, but its problem is that it's so much slimmer that it fails. The magnet should have been made stronger.
So technically speaking, Apple should have called the newer one (pictured up top in your story) MagSafe 3. Or you can refer to it as the third-gen MagSafe.
I personally would love to see a return to the first MagSafe.
More info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MagSafe
Thanks for the clarity, I was still using a Powerbook back then, skipped those early generation MacBooks! Amended the details :)
Clear as mud I guess. Magsafe 2 is actually the third ;-)
I have the newest Retina MacBook Pro and the new magsafe connector and don't have much of a problem with the power supply that came with the new RMBP. I did buy the adapter for the to older Magsafe and that is a bit of a pain because it protrudes out even further, but given that was $10 and an additional power supply was $80 and I already had 3 of the older ones I can live with it.
I do agree with you on the older L shaped ones aren't that good. My non-unibody 17" MBP came with the old plastic one but I had to replace that with the L shaped one.
Overall I am completely good with the new Magsafe 2 because the Haswell based RMBP doesn't get connected near as much as the older MBP.
Ditto. I have used 3 generations of Mag Safe (including the adapter) with 3 generations of Mac Book Pros .. and have never had a problem with either the power supplies or the connectors. They are certainly not perfect; but in my opinion they are light-years better than what preceded them and the alternatives that I'm aware of.

I've heard many people complain that the MagSafe cables pop off too easily... but I think for the most part they are missing the point... it is SUPPOSED to pop off easily. If the alternative is a $1500 laptop crashing to the floor, then I suspect most people would rather the inconvenience of reconnecting the power cable.
One thing you should keep in mind about bad reviews is that people generally only leave online feedback if they are dissatisfied or extremely satisfied. Most people either don't get around to it or just don't care to because they are satisfied with the product. Think about the number of Apple laptops sold world wide and compare that to the number of complaints you see online. The number of complaints is comparatively very small, and I would say that a good percentage of them could be user error or improper care of the product. At least that has been my experience working in several Apple retailer locations. I have never had any issues with any of the MagSafe chargers I have owned. It's a fantastic product. Granted, a replacement is a bit pricey, but I still prefer that to a non-MagSafe charger. I guess sometimes we just have to pay for the Apple brand.
Agreed! It has always worked really well for me but sometime it gets so hot it seems unsafe.

I've got all three MagSafe versions which I'm using with, what I now realise is an unhealthy obsession of collecting Apple products; 2008 MacBook Pro, 2011 MacBook Pro, 2013 retina MacBook Pro and 2013 MacBook Air.
I also have a couple of those MagSafe 1 to 2 adapters because I leave the power supply for my retina MacBook Pro at the office.
Personally, I have never encountered a problem with any of the MagSafe connectors. I regularly use the second generation MagSafe 1 with my MagSafe 2 MacBook Pro at home, which I quite like because the cable runs conveniently to the back of my desk. I have never accidentally knocked out the MagSafe since 2008. I guess I'm lucky :)

I have the 2009 MBP which came with the original plastic white MagSafe connector. It was truly nice. Strong magnet and was large enough to stay put. But it failed on me in 2012 and I had to buy a replacement from Apple, which was unfortunately the L shaped one. Its not too bad actually, but I prefer the older model.
My wife's 2012 MBA has the MagSafe 2 - that I don't like at all. The magnet is just too weak and the damn thing is tiny and won't stay put, particularly if there is an uneven surface involved like say a couch or bed ...once in a way...Size Does Matter !!!
Well I was one of the folks that really hated the MagSafe2 for how easy it was to pop out until I discovered the best invention ever which is a simple band that goes around the connector and prevents it from coming out real easy and it is called the Snuglet. For $19 you can get this piece of heaven and they actually ship 2 of them. Richard Devine, you should seriously add another article about the Snuglet because it is truly wonderful and you install it once onto your macbook and forget about it, the magnet actually keeps it in the laptop and makes the MagSafe2 work exactly how it is intended. Check out their site and see the testimonies for yourself if you don't believe me.
I haven't had any issues with my MagSafe, but good information to look out for in the future.

Well, if you think the MagSafe 2 connector is bad (and yes, it is), you did not even mention the "even better" part... the damned MagSafe 2 to 1 adapter required to connect a Thunderbolt Display. It comes off all the time, sometime it even detaches itself from the MBP and the display cable simultaneously (and it does not seem to be a defective adapter, as I am on no. 8 right now). Apple must have a secret torture department that is allowed to release one MS-like-quality product every 20 years... So, MagSafe 2 and the f@cking adapter should keep us safe for the next 40.
I've never experienced MagSafe 1, but I have observed that often my MagSafe 2 does not always charge on first try. I have to disconnect and reconnect. Also, I get paranoid about scratching the side of the computer with the MagSafe when I'm putting it in, due to the magnetic attraction.

Guys, if you want a solution to all this mess get this!
It goes inside the MagSafe port and enhances the magnetic connection!
Dude, ya really can't complain. IF the author really knocks about the power cord that much he would be constantly repairing the weak plastic moulds that hold every windows AC plug in place. I worked a brief stint at Geek Squad and like 15-25% of the laptops brought in had issues with just that part. A comparatively expensive fix for something apple designed away.

My problems with the mag safe are the size and it does not pop out so easily if someone trips over it. With the new Haswell models it does not have to charge as often so that is nice.
Sent from the iMore App
I actually prefer the new Magsafe 2 because I don't have to guess or turn my MBAir upside down to verify if its charging or not. It's completely visible and I find that to be a "pro".
The Magsafe 1 is sleek and out of sight, but every time you go to plug it in, you had to roll it around a bit until it clicked. If I had my Air off, I'd even have to flip my computer upside down to check if the light is green or yellow. I found this to be annoying.
My usage is not frequent. Once or twice a day just to update a few things and once at night for backups.
The times that I am actually working on a project, I'm working on flat surfaces that are more or less flush with the charging cable, so no complaints there as well.
By its sixth years, the MagSafe connector that came with my 2007 MBP started to fall apart but was still usable. I simply used electrical tape to fix the fraying. And this laptop was constantly on the move, back and forth from my home to various work sites.
Now I'm on the new retina MBP. One year into ownership, the charger/MagSafe cable/connector is still as good as new. I think the bottom line is to use a certain amount of common sense when dealing with cables. Like not straining the connection points and if have to place the cable where you might constantly step on it, wrap the cable up with electrical tape or Kevlar jacket.

I honestly have no idea what you're talking about. The Mag Safe 2 is a great adapter. Never had a single problem with it. In all these years, I've never had one break on me either. Not sure how people always break them lol. I agree, it may seem a bit flimsy, but that just means you have to take great care of your things. After all, you have a Mac, not a crappy PC to throw around. These machines are incredible works of art!
Richard, I agree 100% with your review here.
I've owned every generation of wedge MBA, and the old L-shaped connector was (and still is) the best. The new MagSafe 2 is completely retarded - and this can be broken down from insult to engineered insult with a simple description.
The L-shaped connector has a maximum bend angle of 90* generated in every realistic usage scenario, and often closer to 0* with a careful user flipping its orientation when necessary.
The pathetic MagSafe 2 on the other hand not only has a practical maximum bend angle of 180* (which quickly damages the plug and makes it disconnect far too easily), but ensures that you regularly use this orientation as well. In fact, statistically, the MagSafe 2 will experience a bend angle of between 90* and 180* ~66% of the time, as opposed to the original L-shaped design which sat between 0 and 90* almost 100% of the time.
The orientation deficiencies means it suffers bend-fatigue related failure very quickly, and the weak magnet just makes it more irritating to use rather than mitigating the aforementioned design-related failures. It's basically one poor design decision compounded by another, which nets a complete failure of a product.
This is a very basic mathematical and statistical analysis which is not even necessary as the functional effects are noticeable within minutes of trying to use the thing. In conclusion the designer/engineer who designed the MagSafe 2 should be fired. How they got through the hiring process is beyond me, but as their manager I would take great pleasure in condemning them back to arts school.
I just upgraded my MacBook Air after an unfortunate accident with a hot cup of coffee. After using the the MagSafe1 with its sleek and incredibly functional connector for 3+ years, I was shocked and how bad this MagSafe2 connector was designed. I am very surprised that it has not caught the attention of the important designers. I have had my new laptop for about 4 days and have already noticed that the connector for my power supply keeps losing its attachment to the computer. The MagSafe 1 connector almost never came out of the receptacle on the computer, instead riding very nicely along side the case instead of sticking directly out from the case. DUMB,DUMB,DUMB, Apple!!
The magsafe is an example of how Apple are going downhill... I have 2 macbook pros, macbook air 2 Imacs and a couple of windows laptops also a PC desktop.... I have had heaps of issues with the macs... none with the PC's... not good enough!
Warning... RANT ALERT... I have an older 15" Mac Book Pro and the latest 13" Mac Book Pro. The magnetic connector on the old one is hopeless I usually tape it to the laptop with packing tape. Not too pretty. The new laptop's connector is already weak. I;m sitting on the couch typing on it right now if I stand up and put the computer down, the connector will fall off before it his the couch. I agree with the post above. We use Apple products in our business. We have spent probably in excess of $15K for Apple products since the business started. I'm amazed that Apple isn't responsive to customer complaints. They seem to be coasting on their (declining) reputation. "Hey we're Apple we're God's gift to humanity: never mind the planned obsolescence, the planned short mechanical life-span and the crappy magnetic connector. If you don't like us, go buy a win-tel machine."

I had the 2011 MacBook Unibody with the company I worked for and loved the magsafe adapter for it. Fast forward a year and I changed jobs and the new employer provided me a 15" MBPRO Retina with 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD and I love it! However, about 2 months of using the laptop, I had to go out of town and left my charger at work. So I went to the nearest 3rd party Apple Store and purchased an 85W Magsafe power supply (at the time I didn't realize the connectors were different sizes on the Magesafe and Magsafe 2) without taking the laptop to the store with me. Once I arrived back at my laptop, the darn connector wouldn't fit. So, I had to go back to the store and they gave me (probably because I complained to manager that floor sales guy sold me an incompatible charger for $90.00) an adapter that converts the Magsafe to Magsafe 2. The charger now works but it does protrude even farther away from the laptop and 75% of the time it will not start charging once I connect it to laptop. To get the thing to start charging, I have to shutdown the Windows 7 VM (VMWare Fusion) unplug the charger for 15 to 20 seconds, plug the charger back into the MacBook and it will usually start charging. Other times I have to shutdown the entire MacBook, unplug the Magsafe for 15 to 20 seconds, plug the Magsafe back in the MacBook, and then power on the MacBook. This is a pain in the butt because I have to use my laptop in several locations several times a day. Anyone have any ideas on a workaround for this issue besides purchasing a new Magsafe 2 charger (the original Magsafe 2 that came with the MacBook won't charge because of the twist in the small wire that is between the brick and the T connector is freyed (that's another issue with another comment)?

Hole 16 to the right really could do with some course grooming over by the path to 17

great mix of different types of holes as well as the hardest hole I've ever seen. Very wooded, scenic, and secluded. My favorite course to date. I think some of the low reviews are due to the difficulty of a few holes.

CIty park...lots of trash on the ground. Great design. Lots of elevation changes and trees.

set up is great right now. some pins long and some short. nice wood shots and wide shots around trees. trash cans are always full and there are no benches on the top half of the course.

Tough course, demands you be on top of your game. Open front 10 turn into a tight wooded back 8.
