Happy Customer
Real nice "leather blazer". I ordered the black like five years ago. Nice texture, nice fit. I am considering another color.
Baton Rouge, La
petite sizing off
I ordered the saddle. It is darker than appears on-line. My usual petite size was snug in the bodice, and the sleeves were way too long. Added to that, it STUNK. I have a wardrobe of 25 leather blazers, I can deal with wrinkles, but never had such an odor problem.
Black leather jacket
Love the jacket. Fits well, comfortable & stylish. Don't put a nametag on it! I made that mistake and some of the leather finish flaked off.
Chattanooga TN
Saddle blazer
I am so upset with this jacket. It is beautiful in color, fit and style but unwearable because of the poor packaging for shipment. It is so wrinkled and has button imprints on the lapel and two areas of the front. I went online and watched u-tube for how to get the wrinkles out but nothing works. I have tried hanging it in the shower area for the last week, we have tried to stretch the wrinkles out and I have ironed it several times through the brown paper bag....anyone know of anything I've missed? If I have to take it to a professional the price is too high and they won't guarantee they can get the wrinkles and impressions out.
Poulsbo, WA
red leather
Love the jacket. Color is very nice. They need to package this item better. Too many wrinkles even after letting it hang for a week. If I can't get the wrinkles out it will be unwearable
Bradenton, FL
Leather jacket
Jacket is good fit and nice, but packaged for delivery so poorly that I don't know if I will ever get the wrinkles out.
Cleburne, tX

Quality leather that looks & feels GOOD!I am loving this blazer...love how it looks with a sweater & denim jeans.I may need the brown one next..... Thanks, Chadwicks!
New Jersey
My favorite Jacket
I have this jacket in almost every color and its just the BEST. I only WISH that you would bring back the OLIVE GREEN. I need that in a size larger than the last one I bought a few years back.
Charlotte, NC
Very Nice!
I purchased this blazer in red and black and it's beautiful! The fit is true to size and the leather is soft. Can't beat the price and it's a nice blazer. I'm hate expensive faux leather...ugh and jumped on this immediately!
Kansas City
Watch the buttons
Love the jacket! But, 2nd time I wore it two buttons almost came off. Had to pay to have them secured. But still a great deal!
Sugar Hill, GA
So many compliments
I love this jacket, I have red, brown and saddle now. They are perfect for the office, dinner or that quick on the go trip anywhere. I love the softness, fit and smell. I would recommend them to everyone that likes leather. I use them all year round!
Manchester, NJ
Good value
This is a very nice classic blazer and a good value. The dark brown is a rich deep color. I bought true to size, and it fits well. I will be able to wear a sweater under it without it being too tight. The weight of the leather is nice; not too heavy or too thin. The leather is soft and supple which allows for ease of arm movement. I wish the sleeves weren't vented, but I still like the blazer and will enjoy wearing it this fall and winter.
Louisville, KY
Looks good, fits good, smells good
It's a great jacket. Not the best I've seen, but it is nice. And it smells so good. I got dk brown in a 1X and is roomy. Fits about the way other 1X would fit me. I made 3 vests to go with it. (hint:I used prequilted fabric and it looks so good with the leather. I also made 1 suede vest, that looks good too. All in all i am satisfied with my purchase. Which I consider a good price. So... fits good, smells good, and looks good. That sums it up.
Georgetown, In
A Great Find
I purchased the black size 10 petite, the leather has a great feel, fit is perfect, can't wait to wear it.

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot in a vein deep in the body. Veins are blood vessels with valves that help prevent backward blood flow. Blood is pushed through the veins in legs and arms when muscles contract.
Deposits of red blood cells and clotting elements in the blood can build up in a vein. This build up leads to a blood clot. Clots usually occur in the legs, but can occur in other locations. As the clot grows, it blocks blood flow in the vein.

Several factors contribute to clot formation, including:
Risk factors for DVT include:
Symptoms occur when:
Some patients may not have any symptoms until the clot moves to the lungs. This condition is called
pulmonary embolism
Symptoms of DVT may include:

This may include:
You may be prescribed blood thinning medication to prevent additional clots from forming. These may be given by injection or by mouth.
This treatment may be continued long-term.
In some cases, a filter may be placed in the inferior vena cava. The vena cava is a major vein. Blood from the lower body returns to the heart through this vein. The filter may trap a clot that breaks loose before it travels to the lungs.
General prevention measures include:
If you are admitted to the hospital, talk to your doctor about how to prevent blood clots, such as:

The IBM® System Storage® DS5000 series is designed to meet the demanding open-systems requirements of today—and tomorrow—while establishing a new standard for lifecycle longevity. Building on many decades of design expertise, the DS5000 storage system's architecture delivers industry-leading performance, real reliability, multidimensional scalability and unprecedented investment protection. DS5000 supports IBM AIX® and IBM Power Systems™ T10-PI Data Integrity Initiative.

This multidimensional scalability allows the DS5000 series storage system to extend beyond the normal three- to four-year lifecycle, protecting your storage investment by delaying, or even eliminating, the expense of migrating data to a new system and allowing you to amortize acquisition costs over extended periods of time. This lifecycle longevity enables DS5000 storage systems to continue delivering value long after other systems have been retired. With drive-level encryption, DS5000 series storage systems support affordable data security with no performance penalty. The DS5000 storage system's multiple replication options, drive-level encryption, and persistent cache backup can help ensure that any data in cache is captured and safe in the event of a power outage.

Leaked documents out upcoming Aprilia Dorsoduro 1200
by Jeremy Korzeniewski (RSS feed) on Aug 9th, 2010 at 5:31PM
Rumors have swirled since the introduction of Aprilia's in-house developed 750cc V-twin engine back in 2007 (in the company's naked Shiver and supermoto-inspired Dorsoduro models) that a larger 1200cc version of the potent mill was in the offing. Well, it's been nearly four years since its introduction, and we still don't see a big-bore bike to go up against the likes of the Ducati Monster and Hypermotard. However, it seems such a machine may finally be headed to a dealership near you. And interestingly enough, the news kinda sorta comes from Aprilia itself in the form of (what we assume... Read More

The Bartholin's (BAHR-toe-linz) glands are located on each side of the vaginal opening. These glands secrete fluid that helps lubricate the vagina. Sometimes the openings of these glands become obstructed, causing fluid to back up into the gland. The result is relatively painless swelling called a Bartholin's cyst. At times, the fluid within the cyst may become infected, resulting in pus surrounded by inflamed tissue (abscess).
A Bartholin's cyst or abscess is common. Treatment of a Bartholin's cyst depends on the size of the cyst, the pain and whether the cyst is infected. Sometimes home treatment is all you need. In other cases, surgical drainage of the Bartholin's cyst is necessary. If an infection occurs, antibiotics may be helpful to treat the infected Bartholin's cyst.
If the cyst remains small and no infection occurs, you may not notice it. If it grows, you might feel the presence of a lump or mass near your vaginal opening. Although a cyst is usually painless, it can be tender.
If the cyst becomes infected — a full-blown infection can occur in a matter of days — you may experience these signs and symptoms:
A cyst or abscess typically occurs on only one side of the vaginal opening.
Call your doctor if you have a painful lump near the opening of your vagina that doesn't improve after two or three days of self-care treatment — for instance, soaking the area in warm water (sitz bath). If the pain is severe, make an appointment with your doctor right away.
If you find a new lump near your vaginal opening and you're older than 40, call your doctor promptly. Although rare, such a lump may be a sign of a more serious problem, such as cancer.
Experts believe that the cause of a Bartholin's cyst is a backup of fluid. Fluid may accumulate when the opening of the gland (duct) becomes obstructed, perhaps by the growth of a flap of skin or because of infection.
A cyst can become infected, forming an abscess. A number of bacteria may cause the infection, including common bacteria, such as Escherichia coli (E. coli), as well as bacteria that cause sexually transmitted infections such as gonorrhea and chlamydia.
Bartholin cysts are likely to persist. Abscesses may recur and again require treatment.
Your first appointment will likely be with either your primary care provider or a doctor who specializes in conditions that affect women (gynecologist). Because appointments can be brief, and there's often a lot to cover, it's a good idea to be prepared.
For a Bartholin's cyst, some basic questions to ask include:
Don't hesitate to ask questions during your appointment if you don't understand something.
Some potential questions your doctor might ask include:
To diagnose a Bartholin's cyst, your doctor may:
If cancer is a concern, your doctor may refer you to a gynecologist who specializes in cancers of the female reproductive system.
Often a Bartholin's cyst requires no treatment — especially if the cyst causes no signs or symptoms. When needed, treatment depends on the size of the cyst, your discomfort level and whether it's infected, which can result in an abscess.
Treatment options your doctor may recommend include:
Rarely for persistent cysts that aren't effectively treated by the above procedures, your doctor may recommend surgery to remove the Bartholin's gland. Surgical removal is usually done in a hospital under general anesthesia.
Daily soaking in warm water, several times a day, may be adequate to resolve an infected Bartholin's cyst or abscess.
After surgical procedures to treat an infected cyst or abscess, soaking in warm water is particularly important. Sitz baths help to keep the area clean, ease discomfort and promote effective drainage of the cyst. Pain relievers also may be helpful. If you have a catheter in place, after your doctor's approval, you may resume your normal activities, including sex, depending on your level of comfort.
There's no way to prevent a Bartholin's cyst. However, practicing safe sex — in particular, using a condom — and maintaining good hygiene habits may help to prevent infection of a cyst and the formation of an abscess.

I agree with 2003
This is an example of why having properly prepared, armed, citizens can save lives. He did not have to fire his weapon to deter the shooter from continuing his rampage, in fact he chose not to fire so as not to endanger anyone else.
The shooting examples you give are all "gun free" zones, Columbine had one armed security guard, but once they were past him there was nothing in their way. Keeping firearms out of the hands of responsible citizens is not going to prevent these shootings. The Constitution states that the governments duty is is to protect our rights, not justifying taking them away. They are granted by our Creator; recognized, and supposedly defended, by our government. It is difficult to have a reasonable discussion on the topic of gun violence, when law abiding citizens are treated like criminals.
That is easily remedied with classes and practice. And if your weapon of choice happens to be a shotgun, accuracy means little but direction of fire. In my opinion, were one to encounter a violent situation, five rounds (without plug) would be more than adequate to influence the appetite of most wrong-doers.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."
These are the words of our founders. This is an issue of RIGHTS. Our founders stated that our rights are granted by a Creator, to be protected by the government. When you give government authority above the Creator, you become a subject.
They do not expressly state what that Creator is, and neither did I. I did not make this about religion, I did not "name drop", or bring any of my personal beliefs into this. Though I would be willing to have that discussion under different circumstances.
Just curious,
Has anyone taken the time toread through the entire 'Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act' ... to discover whether or not it covers the cost of a 'Race' reassignment procedure for a United States Senator, and if so, what is the co-pay?
David, nobody would argue otherwise, but disarming people that are not predisposed to committing such heinous acts is not going to prevent those that would. A person bent on killing school children or any other groups would just devise or invent some different manner to accomplish his or her act of mass murder.
That I know of, Timothy McVeigh never fired so much a single shot from his own small arsenal of semi-auto weapons. How many kids did he kill in a hail of flying shrapnel?
Perhaps even mandatory quarterly polygraph examinations of all school personel, might prove helpful in weeding out the pedophiles...(you know)...for the kids.
I believe that every child in America deserves to live in a society free of tobacco products. If our President, the Senate and our house of Representatives truly wanted to save lives on an epic scale, they would come together and ban not only the sale of tobacco, but the cultivation of it as well, on American soil.
Let's haul ourselves into the present tense. Has anyone noticed how most of these mass shooters look crazy as bedbugs, maniacal, bizarre? Loughner, Lanza, Holmes, the Norwegian guy?
However, this country is drowning in firearms, and anyone who believes that doesn't have something to do with a type of horrific crime that has become a regular occurrence is not being serious. But I know this: There are free, democratic societies in this world where 1) There is no Second Amendment, 2) Law-abiding citizens can and do own firearms for legitimate purposes, and 3) Mass shootings either do not happen or are rare and the rate of firearm-related homicide is a fraction of what it is in the United States.
It's time we learn from them.
At the time the founding fathers created the Constitution, very little was accomplished anywhere on this planet by way of any vote taken of the local populace, indigenous, or otherwise. It had always been the ultra-rich that 'owned' the ability to decide the fate of the peoples beneath their caste. Who controls the weapons, controls the people
Do you believe that the indigenous peoples that had subjugated and made slaves of other indigenous peoples living on this continent had voting rights?
The gangs that murder and terrorize the peoples of Chicago, employ the weaponry of the day. Sure, our federal government through some perceived vanity, create and enforce laws that abolish the legal sale of high-capacity weapons to the general public. But doing so, wouldn't stop the flow of those weapons across our borders and into the busy hands of criminals anymore than has its current federal ban on Heroin, Cocaine and Methamphetamines.
The Cartels that rule South of our borders, will simply step-up to the occasion and add another product, to their current export line.
Heraclitus observed how "no man steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man." Was he ever wrong!
No doubt in my mind, that when one group discovers that another group residing further up river has been floating "Baby Ruth's down river, changes will occur on a much larger scale. Both in the Man and in the River. Heraclitus was correct in his observation, and to think he'd realized so much so many centuries before the Baby Ruth had actually come into existence anywhere on this planet, Lulu.
If I were a Greek and noticed what resembled a Baby Ruth float by, my first thought would be how the people upriver need to upgrade their sewer system.
Could very well have been, that the sole, if not the very reason, that some crippled up old coot got to keep being fed and sheltered by his group or tribe, was his ability to cause some bit of laughter to occur around the campfire, and the two toughest and strongest guys in the group thought that ability to be good enough to alive.
Now we live in a welfare state, have television, and crap into our water supply.

SPJ Lighting offers top class landscape flood lighting, outdoor wall lighting, landscape spot lighting fixtures. SPJ offers a lifetime warranty on all its lighting fixtures made of copper and brass. They make use of a special chemical finish. Louie Lighting with its broad lighting range offers low prices on SPJ Lighting fixtures including LED variants that have a long shelf life.
What started off two decades back as a company selling speakers shaped like rocks for placing in backyards has now come to represent the ultimate in outdoor and landscape lighting. The success of SPJ Lighting's expansion was a result of its founder, Paul Lestz's, ability to face and overcome challenges through continuous improvement of products. For this, SPJ Lighting resorted to custom fabrication with its mottos, "Let your imagination become a reality" and "You draw it, we'll build it". This allowed SPJ Lighting to attract architects and designers, who enjoyed the advantages of turning each job into a unique signature project. All outdoor light fixtures of SPJ Lighting are robust and aesthetic, having been made from copper and brass.
SPJ Lighting applies special chemical finishes such as "Matte Bronze" and "Rusty" which have become competitors' envy, many of whom have been trying to duplicate these finishes for years. A significant advantage of the SPJ Lighting fixtures featured on our website is that their finishes are guaranteed for life never to peel or flake. SPJ Lighting's product line leads the lighting industry with LED technology matched with traditional artisanship. SPJ Lighting's systems offer reliability and versatility with their LED options. LED also allows the introduction of Smart Systems such as emergency battery back-up and motion detection.
Copper is a naturally occurring metal which is immune to rust through oxidation. An alloy of copper, Brass, has the same property of corrosion resistance. Since Copper and Brass do not corrode or rust easily, SPJ Lighting prefers them for its outdoor light fixtures. It has been noticed that many types of outdoor lighting fixtures made by others, may either rot away to dust, or their painted finishes may fade completely. SPJ Lighting offers a lifetime warranty for all its copper and brass light fixtures, which extends to the finishes also. SPJ Lighting's chemical finishes include Verde, Moss, Aged Brass, Matte Bronze, Gun Metal, Black, Rusty, Raw Copper, Natural Copper and Satin Nickel. You can trust SPJ Lighting fixtures and finishes to look good and operational for the longest period of time.

Volunteer firefighters with the Palisade Rural Fire Protection District have lots to celebrate in 2013. With a new fire station finally complete, they now have a home to store all their equipment, plus additional room for training, staff offices and bunks. And it's all in one location - at 341 W. Seventh St.
"It's a place for everything to be inside," Palisade's Fire Chief Rich Rupp said. "All of us will be working out of the same building. All of us will be together, and now that we've got a lot more room, we can do better training."
According to Palisade Town Administrator Richard Sales, building a new fire station has been at the top of the town's must-do list for the last 12 years. Up until now, the almost 30 volunteer firefighters protecting the Palisade area were scattered throughout the area in old facilities and a portion of the district's equipment was stored outside.
"The new station is the second phase of converting the old Palisade High School complex into a new Civic Center," a Town of Palisade news release said. "The first phase was the restoration of the old high school gymnasium that was completed in 2010."
Both Sales and Rupp confirmed that keeping all firefighting equipment inside and at one location will reduce wear-and-tear on district equipment, and centralizing crew quarters along with creating five truck bays should reduce response times.
Having a central location on a major thoroughfare will hopefully improve critical response times, too, Sales said.
"Pretty much anywhere we need to go, we can get there a little quicker," he said.
"We originally thought that we'd build a new station by the old Palisade high school," Sales said. "But, when the economy tanked, we couldn't afford a $4 million project without borrowing."
So, Palisade's government developed a creative collaboration with the local fire district. Instead of building a new structure, they decided an adaptive reuse of the old Palisade Library building would be a better deal. And it saved the town almost $2 million from the project's original budget.
Sales said he couldn't be happier town staff managed to build "a fairly major public facility for a town of this size without an increase in debt or tax increase."
Plus, the "adaptive reuse is environmentally sensitive," Sales added. "By reuse of the building, we reduced the footprint of the energy standard quite significantly."

There's action from the get go, and when McClane arrives in Russia it gets even more wild. There's an insane car chase which is not to be missed. Following that, all kinds of fisticuffs and all kinds of action. It's an exciting thrill ride, much like in Die Hard 4, this is a non stop action filled trip which is perfect for adrenaline junkies. The story is simple to follow, probably the weakest of the series so far, but what it lacks in content it makes up for in crazy action and laughs. Far from being the best, but still better than most action movies out there. Entertaining from start to finish!

Greek salad to go
Gravity keeps it all together. Apparently the fundamental force doesn't merely drop heavy things. It keeps the tides heaving, the planets orbiting and the stars smoldering. It can even improve salad.
Consider this truth: Greens are best freshly dressed. Any food scientist who has packed a pre-dressed salad knows the discouraging lunchtime results: sogginess.
Yet greens and dressing can coexist in the same clean and crisp container. The scientist requisitions a quart-sized, wide-mouthed Mason jar. She drops in oil and vinegar. She layers in olives and tomatoes and onion and peppers and feta and cucumber and — last of all — romaine. She twists and turns to her studies, secure in the knowledge that vinaigrette and vinaigree will not comingle.
Until lunchtime, when the hungry scientist grasps the jar and shakes it. Like gravity itself, pure genius. Right?
Greek salad to go
Prep: 25 minutes
Cook: 0
Serves: 1
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
¼ cup (about 10) calamata olives, pitted
1 cup halved grape tomatoes
¼ cup chopped red onion
¼ cup chopped yellow bell pepper
½ cup small cubes mild feta cheese
½ cup chopped cucumber (quarter circles are a good look)
1 cup mixed greens (spinach, arugula, mint leaves and chopped romaine are good options)
Add ingredients to a 1-quart wide-mouth Mason jar, one at a time, in order. Seal and refrigerate. Keeps everything crisp for several days, so consider making a few lunches ahead of time.
At lunchtime, shake jar vigorously. Open and dig in.

This is one of the smartest TV shows to hit the screen in years. The plot twists and turns so much you are pulled from one side to another cleverly leaving you not knowing if to trust Brody (Excellent Damien Lewis) or thinking it's paranoia on the behalf of CIA agent Carrie Mathison (equally good Clair Danes) once the plot strands start linking the show grips like a vice and never lets up until the final episode. To go over the plot would spoil it for the ones new to the show, but all I can say is that I was hooked.This is classy TV but my only concern is that now FOX TV know they are onto a winner will they have the common sence to conclude the show before it runs out of steam and ideas and tarnish this most impressive first season.See if you like.....24.Body of Lies.The Bourne Saga (2002 - 2012)The Kingdom.The Wire.Strike back season 1 - 3

Chicago Board of Ed OKs two new charter schools, but two deferred
By LAUREN FITZPATRICK AND FRAN SPIELMAN Staff Reporters firstname.lastname@example.com December 19, 2012 1:02PM
Micki O'Neil talks about the Foundations Prep Charter and it's place as a future new charter school at the Chicago Public School Board meeting on Wednesday, December 19, 2012. | Al Podgorski~Chicago Sun-Times

Updated: January 21, 2013 3:33PM
The Chicago Public Schools approved two new charter schools Wednesday but surprisingly deferred the approval of two more that CEO Barbara Byrd-Bennett had recommended, saying she wanted more time for a "gut check."
Despite CPS' own claims that the district lacks enough children to fill existing classrooms and the public outcry about potential closings, the Board of Education voted unanimouslyto approve Intrinsic and Chicago Collegiate charter schools as the 10th and 11th new charters opening in the fall.
It also greenlighted an alternative school, Camelot; the charter conversion of Frazier Prep, and added grades to Disney II Magnet School, Rickover Naval Academy High School and Marine Military Math and Science Academy.
"I remain, and I will say this again, agnostic to the type, but I am very committed to the quality," Byrd-Bennett said. "What I care about is the quality and ensure that each child in each classroom each day has access to that high quality."
Byrd-Bennett pulled back her recommendations for Orange School, an arts charter, and Foundations College Prepjust before the vote. CPS Communications Chief Becky Carroll said Byrd-Bennett wanted more time to review the two charters, adding, "It's a gut check for her." She did not yet have a timetable for any new vote. She also had no further explanation, though board member Andrea Zopp questioned the operating experience of the Orange and Foundations leaders.
"New schools by definition have no track record of running schools," Andrew Broy of the Illinois Network of Charter Schools said Wednesday evening, adding that hecouldn't recall any previous deferrals.
All the charters submitted their preferred neighborhoods: Intrinsic on the Northwest Side, Foundations and Chicago Collegiate in the Roseland-Pullman area and Orange in Rogers Park. No locations are set in stone.
That proved problematic for some board members concerned about public outrage stemming from the district's plans to shutter neighborhood schools it says are too empty — most of which are in poor South Side and West Side neighborhoods.
Andrea Zopp, head of Chicago's Urban League, demanded to know where the new charters would go: "How can we approve them if we don't know whether we need them?
"It's hard for me in the environment we are currently in . . . to vote on a charter you're standing there and telling me is going 'somewhere.' "
Zopp, who recently accompanied Byrd-Bennett to Springfield, also asked the Byrd-Bennett for more specifics about targeted schools so parents and community groups can respond. Many, she said, are convinced that CPS, which must publish the names of schools it intends to close by March 31, already made its list.
CPS faces a $1 billion budget shortfall by summer. It says some 330 of its 681 schools are under capacity.
CPS CEO Barbara Byrd-Bennett said the group of 330 "will become a much more narrow pool" during ongoing work carried out by a commission she appointed to make recommendations.
Addressing allegations in the Chicago Tribune that CPS planned in September for political fallout from closings, Byrd-Bennett insisted the plans belonged to the previous administration run by Jean-Claude Brizard.
"Whatever my predecessors have proposed does not reflect what I endorse or what I support," she said.
The internal memo described as a briefing to the Board of Education outlining a strategy for how to handle school closings did not sit well with African-American aldermen whose wards have lost population and so stand to lose the greatest number of schools.
"CPS could avoid a lot of this mistrust if they would work with community people who are steeped in education genuinely," Ald. Pat Dowell (3rd) said. "I don't support the opening of new charters or any school. You fix up your house first before you start adding new additions."
"You can't rationalize the closing of neighborhood schools without rationalizing the closing of charter schools," she said. I have charter schools in my community that are under-utilized and under-performing."
In November, CPS disclosed plans to review charter schools and not renew schools that fail to measure up to their contracts. The board could vote as soon as January's meeting, Byrd-Bennett said Wednesday.
Ald. Howard Brookins (21st), chairman of the City Council's Black Caucus and a member of the mayor's school-closing commission, said he had no idea that CPS had a strategy memo on school closings before he read about it. But he acknowledged that, now that it has been made public, the commission's already difficult job has been made even tougher.
"We've got a lot of credible people with reputations on the line. Hopefully, the public will know we're serious and credible people who wouldn't be part of a conspiracy to shove a pre-determined conclusion down their throats," Brookins said. "But we've got our work cut out. We kind of knew that going in. We just didn't know it would be made more difficult" by the memo.
But, he said, "We don't have any particular marching orders. We are actively trying to come up with criteria that, if this is done, these are the circumstances under which it should be done. That's why we've all taken the job seriously. We are not gonna just rubber-stamp or be the scapegoat for CPS or school closings." .

Office of Sponsored Programs
You are here
Sponsored programs are those projects and/or activities which are originated and conducted by members of the faculty or, in some instances, by staff members. Such programs are supported wholly or in part by external restricted funds awarded to the university.
The Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP) is a support structure and seeks to assist faculty members in a variety of ways — identifying funding sources; assisting with the development of proposals, including the development of a budget; proposal processing, which includes pre-and post-award administration of grants or contract; and review. In addition, the OSP is an advocate for a campus environment that is conducive to the research enterprise, and advises the administration on matters of regulatory compliance, internal sponsorship of scholarly activities and other related issues.
The OSP is the primary mechanism for providing direct assistance to faculty and staff in identifying appropriate sources for external funds of sponsored projects and programs. Sponsored projects usually include a line item budget which states monetary needs of the project. This budget may or may not include indirect costs.
The mission of the Office of Sponsored Programs is to serve as an advocate for a campus environment conducive to the research enterprise and advise the administration on matters of regulatory compliance, internal sponsorship of scholarly activities and other related issues. The office also seeks to assist faculty members in identifying funding sources, assisting with development and review of proposals, and assuring compliance.

KITCHEN WEEK day 5 is really courtesy of Pinterest. Pinterest is like Facebook to me. You go on to do one thing and then you end up endlessly wandering through all kinds of photos on other peoples pages. The other day I was on Facebook leaving a comment on best of friend AM's wall wishing her a happy birthday and somehow through clicking here and there, I ended up in some random persons wedding photos! Oy vey.
Anyhooooo...I found this kitchen while randomly browsing through Pinterest. Somehow it led me to Willow Decor blog and to these fabulous photos taken by photographer James Salomon of a kitchen designed by Bronwyn Huffard of Huffard House Interiors.
Love this traditional kitchen in Maine....with it's backsplash featuring a Swiss flag like white and gray cross painted backsplash under the stainless hood and above the range. Love the industrial pendant lights over the kitchen island, the white marble counters, the large windows flanking the stove and most of all, the lemon yellow pocket door leading to the pantry! Very nice.
A classic kitchen with a twist!
Happy Friday!
P.S. Have today off from regular job...am heading to my tiny cottage in the Hollywood Hills to meet the closet installers and the painters. Have chosen a great gray/blue color for my little den. Some Benjamin Moore color...but I've forgotten what it is called already! Yikes.

Let's announce the three winners, shall we?!!

Congratulations guys!!! Please contact us at email@example.com for details on how to recieve your prize.
One of the many beautiful projects in this year's Dwell on Design Home Tours line up was Sander Architect's Green House pair. This set of townhouses on one single lot face each other over a drivable courtyard. They are very similar in appearance, yet not identical. Both buildings are wrapped in a skin of 1" x 2" aluminum edges that give it a very distinct appearance, but also act as a shade screen throughout the day.
This pair is what Whitney would call a Hybrid House. "This is a new type of house that we have developed, using a prefabricated metal frame, skin and roof. We have achieved unprecedented economies by using prefabricated building (warehouse) fabricators to manufacture the most expensive parts of the houses at a fraction of the normal costs. We have also achieved unprecedented scale."
The windows are wrapped in the same material used for bus graphics, which allows the home owners to see out, but no one to see in. What a brilliant idea! The custom pattern was designed to reflect the surrounding environment.
They photographed a tree and blew up the image so each building looks as though the the trees are reflecting in the windows. This organic element brings a lot of character to these ultra modern homes.
The front townhouse faces the street and features a quaint zen garden for a front yard. The concrete floors blend with the natural stone wall to create a very calm and peaceful area, filled with lots of natural sunlight. Simple organic wood furniture paired with these modern materials create a great balance in an industrial style space.
What a stunning kitchen! The dark oak Italian kitchen cabinetry contrasts perfectly with the concrete floors, while the two-story oxidized metal panels dominate the space.
The second floor living room features a glass railing and glass walkway which overlooks the kitchen. Modern glass dining tables are a great choice for an open plan. From above the dining table basically disappears.
The soft industrial aesthetic of this modern dining table (below) will help you get this look in your home.
Zuo Plume Clear Glass Modern Dining Table
The contemporary chandelier adds an elegant touch to the industrial space and brings the organic elements of nature indoors.
If you love the chandelier, but aren't one of those lucky enough have these gorgeously high ceilings, a shorter capiz shell pendant would work beautifully in your space.
Dolce Capiz Shell 25" Wide Pendant Chandelier
Many innovative green materials were used throughout this entire project, including passive heating and cooling, natural daylighting, shade screens, bamboo flooring, green cabinetry, and recycled glass countertops.
There were many amazing homes on the the Dwell Home Tour schedule and this is just one of them! I hope you had a chance to check them all out! But if not, there's always next year.....

Today's modern chandelier often times double as an art installation. Is this good or bad? Well, how can art ever be bad? As long as you understand how to translate these designs to work in your own home, then you're able to enjoy them as the inspiration that they are.
This innovative creation (above), designed by Elisa Strozyk, is made out of small triangles of wood. Where you would normally see wood used only as a flat surface in product design, this chandelier can be bent and shaped however you like, far from a flat surface.
Innovative product design is similar to the fashion runway... Would you necessarily wear that? Similarly, would you ever put that in your home (above)? However, you can use the materials, colors and form as inspiration for selecting a modern chandelier. Also, the way it relates to the space can be a form of inspiration as well.
One very simple way to achieve these lighting-meets-art look is to go with an over sized fixtures (above two images), but keep the materials simple. Proportions can definitely be played with to make a statement in any room.
Another way to turn your modern lighting into art is to keep the furnishings and decor around it simple (above). Allow your modern chandelier, big or small to stand out.
Here's a few fun ideas for unconventional chandeliers that will surely make a statement in your home.
1. Fredrick Ramond Mondo Chandelier, 2. Maxim Chantilly Nickel Jewelry Chain Chandelier, 3. Possini Glass Orbs Pendant Chandelier, 4. Possini Corinthian Bronze Twist Chandelier, 5. Vienna Full Spectrum Chrome and Crystal Chandelier
Don't limit your sources for inspiration, just because certain products won't fit in your home (or budget), doesn't mean you can't pull ideas from them. Designing is about solving problems so there's always a way to achieve the look you want!

Have you been searching for the perfect modern coffeehouse to meet your clients at, have a quick business meeting, or just get some work done? Well if you're in Los Angeles, look no further, Graffiti Cafe is the perfect place! The interior is a clean black and white palette with painted white floors and exposed vaulted beam ceilings that make the space feel incredibly open. It's a gorgeous crisp palette just waiting to be tagged by the local graffiti and street artists that fill the streets of the La Brea neighborhood.
The baristas are as friendly as ever and stand behind the all white counter lined with treats. This peace sign dictates quite an accurate description of this place. The glowing sign along with the incredible music creates a vibe that almost makes you feel as if you're floating like a cloud in the space. It's a real chill experience even when you're hyped on the delicious Intelligentsia coffee!
There are many different types of seating in this modern coffeehouse to suit your mood and your company. The classic fireplace mixes with the modern elements to create a cozy setting. Using a modern black sofa that is extremely comfortable can really make one feel cozy in a space that may appear to be very sleek.
This area is great for lounging and chatting with friends while sipping coffee or eating one of their amazing Butter Nutter cookies!
Zuo Fortress Collection Black Leather Sofa
You can head upstairs to the laptop stations in the lofted area and look down onto the crowd or you can grab a comfy seat in one of the booths lining the perimeter of the open space below.
The tables and chairs float in front of the booths to create small group seating that can easily be clustered together for larger groups. You won't feel cramped in this large open space by any means. The use of modern black dining chairs and simple round white dining tables creates a bold, modern contrast in any space.
Zuo Spire Black Dining Chair
Zuo Wilco White Dining Table
The larger communal spaces are perfect for serious business! Long dining tables are linked together to create a communal area for interacting with larger groups or just new friends.
The graffiti installation in this rear nook subtly separates the corner from the open plan seating. Semi-circular booths create intimate, more private seating in this area.
No matter what your agenda is, this modern coffeehouse is tailored to suite you. The coffee is definitely sublime and the music is so good you won't want to leave! Soups and sandwiches are coming soon and I'm sure so much more is up their sleeve! Welcome to the neighborhood Graffiti Cafe!

The hot summer days always call for something light and refreshing. This modern loft features a light-filled design by Linda Bergroth and is just about as refreshing as you can get. Bold colors dance around the room like summer flowers in bloom while the white hardwood floors reflect the light that shines in these large gorgeous windows.
The modern glossy blue lacquer kitchen is such a strong and bold contrast with all the white surroundings. Adding bold colors in a neutral space is the perfect way to add character to any room. The use of the wall mounted light fixture above the cook top is a very clever idea and a great alternative for under-counter lighting. You can get this look in your own kitchen by using this modern swing arm lamp.
Mondoluz Pelle Brushed Platinum LED Swing Arm Wall Lamp
Bold colors and patterns bring so much fun energy into the space and still manage to maintain a sophisticated feel. Bright colored pillows are a great way to add personal style and energy into your modern loft.
Blue, black, and white stay consistent in the small library and create a well balanced, interesting space that one would actually get excited about reading in! The patterned rug is...well...just so cool! Blue accents on the built-in shelving create a very powerful element that shows the level of detail considered in this modern loft. Simple, but decorative pendant lighting can be a defining element in the style of your home. The solid black pendant (above) makes a strong statement due to the contrast with the white, but is very simple in form.
Kichler Olde Bronze Mini Pendant Light
Large, bold artwork above the bed is always a great alternative to a headboard. This colorful painting brings a very playful, positive energy into the bedroom and almost guarantees you'll wake up everyday with a smile! The wall mounted bedside sconces are perfect reading lights and help with keeping the nightstands clear from clutter.
The contemporary bathroom may be neutral in color, but its boldness is right on par. The gray, black, and white geometric patterned concrete floor tiles are a dynamic element and pair perfectly with the beveled edge white brick pattern tile. The vintage bathroom sconces and pendant lights bring an industrial vibe into this modern bathroom. Bathroom lighting can change the entire feel of your space so creating balance is key when deciding what direction you want to go.
Oh look, and there's a modern sauna, as if we weren't sold on this loft already! This looks like the perfect place to relax after a hard day at work.
Hope you all are having a beautiful and refreshing summer! Make sure to take a little time for some rest and relaxation!

text: I just took a look at Michi's thread of the new baby (congrats by the way!) and there is something I have always wondered. Why does every hopital have that same receiving blankets? The one with the pink and blue stripes. Is there a reason for this? You would think different places would vary. I don't know just the weird thought of the day lol.
