Well ya know what, if it has to go out, at least it's going out with a bang. You look fabulous as usual!
I too struggle with how one would wear this in cooler months. I could see it working in autumn with a brown leather bomber jacket and orange accessories, but beyond that I'm stumped.

That's a GREAT dress Lyddie! Not sure, but you can knot it up one side, wear opaque tights and add a dark leather bomber jacket as JewishGirlBlog stated above. Never tried it, but just trying to visualize. :)

Oh I don't know, I'm sure you could make it work for fall, especially since black and white are season neutral! Though I know what you mean, there are definitely pieces of clothing I have that I just don't feel right in any other season.

I don't know, I think this dress looks pretty darn amazing and I will miss it in its absence. I think this is a pretty great transitional look! The dress alone is pretty amazing. You look great!

There is something about it that's pretty summery.
Maybe pull it right up into the belt so it's knee length, add a pullover, tights and leg warmers for winter?

- Gray Skies said...
I know horizontal stripes aren't supposed to be the most flattering, but for some reason this look makes you look SUPER tall! My stripey dress doesn't do that for me :)
- September 21, 2011 at 11:58 PM
- Gray Skies said...
BTW I really love that dress! Was it a recent H&M purchase? Or is it one of those things that they probably don't have in stock anymore?
- September 22, 2011 at 12:03 AM
- Anne said...
I feel the same way about maxis not really carrying over into other seasons past summer. I mean I can see how you could style it, but to me, the dress is so summery. Of course, I do like how you've styled it for a late summer day.

I agree with everyone else (and you) that there would be ways to bring this into fall. On the other hand, last fall I packed away all my summer/spring stuff into storage (normally I just packed the winter stuff and then tried to layer the dresses/sleeveless tops), and when I brought them out last week it felt like a whole new wardrobe! I think it's no bad thing to save clothes for when you're really going to appreciate them - keeps us shopping addicts from getting sick of stuff too quickly.

I think you could style it for fall and winter if you were so inclined but it also strikes me as sort of an intrinsically summery piece...

Lovely outfit and I think I'm going on the search for a stripe dress of my own. Oh and your necklace is still in stores, right? ;)

I can see it with something orange for fall. Kinda jailhouse Halloween-y chic or something. But I think some things should just be worn or used only during certain times so there are good and definite memories of them. You know? Like apple cider. You drink apple cider in the fall. If you drank it in the summer, it would just be weird. Yeah.
It might be too early for me to be forming coherent thoughts.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray
Chevrolet recently revealed its 2014 Corvette Stingray during the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. "The machine is entirely new. But familiar cues surface. Distinct aeronautical lines. A flowing, aerodynamic exterior. A sleek fastback finish. For the first time in decades, a stunning machine emerges with the aesthetic impact and the performance prowess worthy of the Stingray emblem". Powered by a 450HP small block V8, it reaches 0 to 60 mph in under 4 seconds and is expected to be listed beyond $50k. Enjoy!

Right now, you and your employees transmit vast quantities of voice and data messages every day, but probably not over the same network. There's the Internet for data and the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) for voice.
But can you keep meeting your earnings targets with one ankle tied to a phone system that hasn't changed much in a century? The business cycle keeps accelerating--and pretty soon, you'll want to mix voice and data in high-bandwidth applications like CRM, videoconferencing and streaming media presentations. Jumbo data types don't travel well over PSTN copper.
Plan B: Go IP. Internet-based or IP telephony offers capital and operational cost savings and productivity enhancements. An IP-based telephone system like Cisco's ICS 7750, the equivalent of a traditional PBX and a LAN, can easily mix high-bandwidth voice and data packets. Just one Category 5 networking cable carries both to every worker's desktop about twice as efficiently as the standard PBX network, so less hardware, less wire and fewer upgrades are needed.
An IP phone system costs less to buy and install than separate systems, but the real savings come in operating costs. Potentially expensive phone moves, changes and additions can be accomplished by staff without a visit from a PBX vendor. IT staffers need know only one system with one set of manuals and administration tools, and both IT and end-user training are simplified.
Workers have an LCD display with graphical phone options and a universal mailbox that, market research and consulting firm Sage Research says, can save the average person almost four hours of phone tag per week. The phone can display XML-based Web content and, when connected to an IP-based long-distance service, avoid the tollbooths that the Bell companies have placed along the PSTN. Remote, even overseas, offices are a local call. Put a mobile IP phone in the hands of your important telecommuters, and they can receive and make calls through the ICS 7750, too.
Cisco is one vendor focused on return, and its distributors can run an ROI calculator telling you specifically what IP telephony could do for you.
|Many Happy Returns?
Estimating your potential return on technology is a useful exercise that can help you refocus away from product specs and onto the real reason you're buying the stuff in the first place--to help your company make money.
But predicting ROI is hard to do. A lot depends on how and how well you use the equipment and what the billing rates of those users are. Here are some of the factors Dell system consultants use for network deployments. This sample ROI calculator starts with total cost of ownership (TCO) and gets more speculative from there.
Since no one can foretell the future, product vendors can't definitively predict product ROI anymore than you know how many widgets you'll sell this quarter. But a vendor should, at least, be able to point you to research or anecdotal evidence upon which to base your ROI assumptions. If your salesperson can't, maybe your company is too sophisticated to be doing business with that company.

I know a scent is good if a stranger asks me what I am wearing. Its right up there with Armani Gio and Versace Signature. Although the price is maybe a little higher . Depending on price or special deals I will usually buy one of the three.
May 24, 2014
This fragrance is GREAT! It's not over whemling, but it's great when someone is close, they can smell the scent, and and love it. It's defiently draws attention, and seems to turn things up! It's a little pricey, but you don't need a lot. It last quite a while. I think it's best saved for a date...or a special occasion. It reminds me of cheek to cheek dancing, very romanic.

Exquisite Crochet Shawls - Crochet Pattern
by Annie's Attic

In Stock. Usually ships in 1-2 business days.
Item: AA-871207 - Type: Crochet Patterns.
Versatile, timeless and exquisite describe these five beautiful shawls designed by Cristina Mershon. Season after season, they will add that extra touch to the most basic wardrobe. The Alborada Shawl is worked from the bottom up with edge detail that is worked all in one seamless piece. It uses a fine weight cotton yarn and is made of pineapples that interlace to create a very sophisticated lace effect. The Celtic Nature Shawl, made using size 3 thread, is created with round motifs worked seemlessly together. A random placement of different motifs make a beautiful edge for the Art Deco inspired shawl. Using a light weight yarn, the Galician Sea Shawl is sea shell and ocean inspired. It is worked from the top down, creating two separate sections with a center spine and is completed with a beautiful edging. The Voloreta Stole is made using a ripple stitch and super fine weight mohair yarn is an exquisite soft and airy stole, big enough to wear around your shoulders and cozy enough to wear as a winter scarf. Voloreta is trimmed with unique crocheted balls that dangle giving it that extra little touch much like the icing on the cake! Skill Level: Easy to Intermediate

Yesterday, the Ninth Circuit held that video sharing site Veoh is immune from copyright liability under the DMCA in what will likely become a seminal ruling for copyright and the internet.
Plaintiff Universal Music Group had asked the Circuit Court to reverse the lower court's holding that Veoh qualified for the DMCA safe harbor on several grounds:
- "[T]he alleged infringing activities do not fall within the plain meaning of 'infringement of copyright by reason of the storage [of material] at the direction of a user'"
- "Veoh had actual knowledge of infringement, or was 'aware of facts or circumstances from which infringing activity [wa]s apparent'"
- "Veoh 'receive[d] a financial benefit directly attributable to . . . infringing activity' that it had the right and ability to control."
The Circuit Court rejected all of these arguments. The full opinion is available here. Some preliminary thoughts follow.
Infringement by Reason of Storage
The court's conclusion that Veoh's operations fall within the scope of § 512(c) is not a surprise. It interpreted the statute's "by reason of" language broadly — protecting service providers from any infringing activity that occurs on their site stemming from a user's upload.
But while this interpretation may be reasonable in light of how the internet has developed, it is no doubt an expansion on the original intent of the language. The court says "if Congress wanted to confine § 512(c) exclusively to web hosts rather than reach a wider range of service providers, we very much doubt it would have done so with the oblique 'by reason of storage' language." But of course, this reasoning begs the question. When Congress passed the DMCA, "user-generated content" had yet to even enter the lexicon — Congress couldn't have factored a type of service provider that didn't exist yet into the law.
I've talked previously about how sites like Veoh, YouTube, and other Web 2.0/UGC sites are arguably beyond the scope of protection of 512(c). The provision was drafted at a time when storing content at the direction of a user was primarily a collateral or passive function of service providers. For UGC sites, this "storage" is the sine qua non of their business model.
I'm certainly not saying such sites should be strictly liable for infringement by their users, or even required to monitor or prescreen uploads. But I also don't think the only thing they need do to qualify for the DMCA safe harbor is respond to takedown notices. Unauthorized content unquestionably subsidizes many UGC sites — it's perfectly reasonable that such sites subsidize copyright enforcement. As unavoidable as the expansion of the scope of this safe harbor might be, it may be the case that the language may need to be revisited at some point down the road.
Actual and Apparent Knowledge
The court's holding that "general knowledge that [a service provider's] services could be used to post infringing material" is insufficient to eliminate DMCA safe harbor protection is consistent with what other courts have held.1
The court does, however, engage in a bit of curious reasoning to come to this conclusion. It notes:
Further, Congress' express intention that the DMCA "facilitate making available quickly and conveniently via the Internet . . . movies, music, software, and literary works" — precisely the service Veoh provides — makes us skeptical that UMG's narrow interpretation of § 512(c) is plausible. S. Rep. No. 105-190, at 8.
This is curious because the quote used by the 9th Circuit used is not referring to the purpose behind the DMCA safe harbors, it is referring to the purpose behind the anti-circumvention and copyright management information provisions of the DMCA.2
By conflating the purpose of stronger digital protections for copyright owners with the purpose for limiting the liability of service providers, it essentially creates a logical absurdity within the Copyright Act: promoting the progress of the arts and sciences through exclusive rights is accomplished when ignoring those exclusive rights is made easier.
The Ninth Circuit leaves us still with little meaningful distinction between actual knowledge and apparent — so-called "red flag" — knowledge. It says "that the burden" for bringing red flags to service provider's attention "remains with the copyright holder rather than the service provider." The summary conclusion is that "Veoh's general knowledge that it hosted copyrightable material and that its services could be used for infringement is insufficient to constitute a red flag."
But it does mention one way a service provider can have apparent knowledge, at least in theory. The Ninth Circuit notes that if "notification had come from a third party, such as a Veoh user, rather than from a copyright holder, it might meet the red flag test because it specified particular infringing material."
Right and Ability to Control
The clear discussion of the interplay between safe harbor and common law vicarious liability is to be commended. As court explains, the two are independent: Congress intended the safe harbor to protect against vicarious liability if the statute's conditions are met, even though the requirement that a service provider doesn't have the "right and ability to control" infringing activity seems synonymous with the common law articulation of vicarious liability. Yet some courts still get tripped up by this concept.
However, I am a bit troubled by court's interpretation of "right and ability to control" as being dependent on scope of service:
Where, as here, it is a practical impossibility for Veoh to ensure that no infringing material is ever uploaded to its site, or to remove unauthorized material that has not yet been identified to Veoh as infringing, we do not believe that Veoh can properly be said to possess the "needed powers . . . or needed resources" to be "competen[t] in" exercising the sort of "restraining domination" that § 512(c)(1)(B) requires for denying safe harbor eligibility.
You hear this often from DMCA maximalists: it's just too hard to control infringement on the internet. But this seems similar to a "too big to fail" argument — eventually, a service provider becomes "too big to be liable for infringement."
Viewed this way, the interpretation doesn't seem to comport with real world views on liability. Imagine a factory owner who says he dumps a lot of stuff into the river, and it's not possible as a practical matter to ensure that none of that stuff is toxic. Or imagine a government that says it arrests a lot of people, and it doesn't have the needed resources to exercise the type of restraining domination to ensure that none of them were wrongfully arrested.
Yes, there are differences between offline services and online services. But I don't know if that should mean a complete departure from liability principles — especially since sites like Veoh and YouTube did not sprout online, organically and fully-formed. The fact remains that sites like these were purposely designed to provide content acquired through user uploads, just as services like Hulu and Netflix were purposely designed to provide content acquired through licensing.
As I said earlier, I'm not suggesting in the least that sites like Veoh should be responsible for every upload. Just that "the right and ability to control" shouldn't necessarily hinge on popularity.
Finally, it is good to see the Ninth Circuit reaffirm the fact that "willful blindness" can constitute knowledge under this section:
Accordingly, we hold that the 'right and ability to control' under § 512(c) requires control over specific infringing activity the provider knows about. A service provider's general right and ability to remove materials from its services is, alone, insufficient. Of course, a service provider cannot willfully bury its head in the sand to avoid obtaining such specific knowledge.
What's Next?
The Ninth Circuit affirmed summary judgment on the DMCA safe harbor and dismissal of the claims against the Investor defendants, who had been sued along with Veoh. It remanded to the lower court only for determination of whether Veoh can collect certain costs, excluding attorney's fees, under FRCP 68.
That means the lawsuit is essentially over, barring an appeal by UMG to the Supreme Court.
The Second Circuit, of course, is currently considering similar issues in Viacom's lawsuit against YouTube. It isn't bound to follow the ruling here, but it will most likely have a look at the opinion. That opinion, of course, is still months away.
- See, for example, A & M Records v. Napster, 239 F.3d 1004 (9th Cir. 2001); Viacom v. YouTube, 718 F.Supp.2d 514, 523 (SDNY 2010); Corbis Corp. v. Amazon, 351 F.Supp.2d 1090, 1109 (WD Wash 2004). [↩]
- The HRCC has a copy of S. Rep. No. 105-190 available on its site. The relevant portion in full reads:
Due to the ease with which digital works can be copied and distributed worldwide virtually instantaneously, copyright owners will hesitate to make their works readily available on the Internet without reasonable assurance that they will be protected against massive piracy. Legislation implementing the treaties provides this protection and creates the legal platform for launching the global digital on-line marketplace for copyrighted works. It will facilitate making available quickly and conveniently via the Internet the movies, music, software, and literary works that are the fruit of American creative genius. It will also encourage the continued growth of the existing off-line global marketplace for copyrighted works in digital format by setting strong international copyright standards.
At the same time, without clarification of their liability, service providers may hesitate to make the necessary investment in the expansion of the speed and capacity of the Internet. In the ordinary course of their operations service providers must engage in all kinds of acts that expose them to potential copyright infringement liability. For example, service providers must make innumerable electronic copies by simply transmitting information over the Internet. Certain electronic copies are made to speed up the delivery of information to users. Other electronic copies are made in order to host World Wide Web sites. Many service providers engage in directing users to sites in response to inquiries by users or they volunteer sites that users may find attractive. Some of these sites might contain infringing material. In short, by limiting the liability of service providers, the DMCA ensures that the efficiency of the Internet will continue to improve and that the variety and quality of services on the Internet will continue to expand.

In Lasse Hallström's Casanova starring Heath Ledger not to be confused with Fellini's Casanova starring Donald Sutherland or Casanova's Big Night starring Bob Hope the character of the World's Greatest Lover is adapted to suit the preferences of the World's Greatest Purchasers of Self-Actualization Books. As Ledger plays the role (in wigs and cosmetics that would make Brokeback Mountain's Ennis Del Mar retch), this legendary swordsman and scourge of the Inquisition loves the ladies but is never lewd. He seduces nuns and noblewomen with equal enthusiasm but is never cavalier about his conquests. He laughs at marriage but loves his mama, who abandoned him as a boy in Venice years ago for love, promising to return.
Urged by the sympathetic Doge of Venice to take a wife for the appearance of propriety the Inquisition's heinous guardians of piety loathe him and would like him hanged this Giacomo Casanova goes through the motions of preparing for marriage to a pretty young thing. But the babe who really catches his eye is the one who disdains him and all his ilk: Francesca Bruni (Sienna Miller) is a feminist who fences like a champ and writes her own self-actualization pamphlets (under a male pseudonym) for the 1753 equivalent of Ms. magazine readership. She's also unwillingly engaged to be married, for the economic betterment of her family, to a rich fellow named Paprizzio (Oliver Platt), who proudly calls himself the lard king of Genoa and has the lard ass to show for it.
Mistaken identity, hidden identity, flaunted identity, faked love, true love, pratfalls involving a fat man in a gondola the movie trucks in them all. And if real eroticism is missing this is a Disney movie, with bosoms heaving more in a gentle parody of heaving than in full desire the great discovery of this Casanova is Hallström's recovered capacity for play. So neutered in his Hollywood pictures like The Shipping News and Chocolat, the Swedish director does his most freewheeling work since What's Eating Gilbert Grape.
And he's got some big assists. For one thing, the script and story, by a clutch of writers, includes an uncredited polish by Tom Stoppard, and it's easy to imagine that some of the pic's funniest (and most pointedly political) barbs bear the mark of Stoppard's own sword. And for another, the supporting cast is a hoot. Ledger acquits himself dashingly (the one-two punch of Casanova and Brokeback Mountain proves he can play a man for all sexual seasons), and young Ms. Miller has a modern, smart-girl look about her; her Francesca is neither too tough to melt nor too glittering from the Emma Thompson school of smarties. But Platt, in full (prosthetic) girth, is a sight for Chocolat-weary eyes. Character actor Omid Djalili bites into every scene he's in as Casanova's servant. And as the fearsome Bishop Pucci, Jeremy Irons, in an orange wig from the mullet school of Inquisition hairdos, savages cant and hypocrisy with every faux pious word falling from his silver tongue. He's the World's Greatest Lizard.

STUDY: Average car costs 22.1 weeks of median family income, average price at $26,300
Comerica says that the reason the average purchase price rose in Q2 is that customers were buying more expensive cars. That's a bit odd in such a down economy, although lower overall sales could mean that customers who would normally purchase lower priced vehicles stayed out of dealerships altogether. The lower interest rates and higher transaction rates tells us that automakers are likely offering more 0% financing offers, which typically replaces heavy rebates in return for a lower monthly payment. Comerica Chief Economist Dana Johnson feels the average vehicle transaction price will ultimately come back down in Q3, due in part to the success of Cash for Clunkers. Hit the jump to read over the official press release.
[Source: Comerica Bank | Image: Karen Bleier/AFP/Getty]
DALLAS, Aug. 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The purchase of an average-priced new vehicle took 22.1 weeks of median family income in the second quarter 2009, according to Comerica Bank's Auto Affordability Index. This reading is up 0.3 of a week, thereby representing a slight deterioration in affordability compared to the prior quarter. Median family income was essentially unchanged in the second quarter. The total cost of buying and financing a new car rose, however, due entirely to the fact that consumers chose to buy more expensive cars on average. The average price of a light vehicle purchased in the second quarter rose by $300 to $26,300.
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20010807/CMALOGO)
"While consumers opted to buy more expensive vehicles last quarter, a sharp drop in financing costs held down our affordability index," said Dana Johnson, Chief Economist at Comerica Bank. "Reflecting the partial normalization of credit markets, the average rate paid on a car loan at finance companies was only 3.45 percent last quarter, the lowest level seen in five years. In the current quarter, our affordability index very possibly will reach a new best reflecting the cash-for-clunkers program that is now in place."
This report incorporates the latest data on consumer spending on light vehicles and on the terms available on auto loans. The full history of the Index is available upon request.
