Pete Blackshaw | July 10, 2007 | Comments
With social networks, marketers must understand the fine line between a meaningful relationship and cheap one.
Lately I've been getting so many darn friend and connection invites that my head is spinning. From LinkedIn to Facebook to the all-too-common (and bogus) MySpace invite from the girl "who just broke up with [her] boyfriend and is just looking for fun," it's all getting a bit crazy.
Is spam king Sanford Wallace running this gig? Or am I just reliving Groucho Marx's famous quip, "I'd never join a club that would accept me as a member."
Don't get me wrong. Of course I want friends. Still, despite my elevation to various folks' A lists, I'm not sure I've earned my way or deserve such honors. It all just feels so casual and "what the heck, let's see if Pete bites."
Then again, it's so easy to say yes. Just click and confirm. "I don't really know you, but you seem like someone I should know," I keep thinking.
But at some point, you can't just say "yes" blindly. Friendship comes with obligations, responsibility, and some level of accountability.
Case in point: The other day, a semi-close contact (a loosely defined friend) sent me a somewhat desperate appeal to introduce him to a guy who, for the sake of this column, we'll call John Doe. Totally embarrassed, I shot back a flustered e-mail, asking, "Who exactly is John Doe?"
"Dude, he's a major recruiter," responded my loosely defined friend. "And he's one of your trusted contacts on LinkedIn. Tee me up! I really need the assist."
I felt like a fraud, a candidate for one of those "Ethicist" columns in "The New York Times Magazine." I could barely remember agreeing to be this guy's friend. Moreover, I felt as if my vain, egocentric need to pad my contact list backfired on me.
My sin was poignant and revealing. I'd said yes to friendship, a connection, I never intended to nurture. Now, I've paid the price in front of a loosely defined friend. Imagine if it had been a real friend who hit me up for a desperate favor. My street cred would be toast!
More recently, I've been deluged by friend or connection invites from Procter & Gamble (P&G) folks,. It's almost as if the CEO sent an e-mail to every employee, "OK, folks, go sign up for LinkedIn or Facebook." Beats me what's really going on, but folks I barely know (many I haven't even heard of) are asking to be my trusted connections.
This presents a dilemma. Who wouldn't want P&G folks on his contact list? In theory, this elevates my social currency. The more the merrier, right? But if the nature of these relationships is marginal, am I boosting or cheapening my own credibility? Moreover, and this is a big point, do I really want to get flooded with requests from other friends or, worse, dubious friends I mindlessly (or egotistically) checked off, looking for P&G connections?
Choices, Connections, Commitments
Turns out these ostensibly intimate social networks that have been thrust upon us have chinks in the armor, or at least a few critical nuances we need to work through. As we all seek to make our sites more Web 2.0, we may want to think about how we anchor our social networks to real intimacy, not loose phony connections.
"Web 2.0 is very open, but what become of the organizing principles which enable value or traction?" asks my ever-in-touch colleague Max Kalehoff. "How do you avoid becoming a whole lot of nothing? What becomes of the private, exclusive, invite-only networks? There's something to them. Means by which to codify the friendships and obligations are key."
Indeed. We certainly don't want to move to an elitist world, but we also don't want to overstate the value of a loose assemblage of quasi-familiars.
Beyond how we link our professional networks, many marketers offer advice to clients about social networks' potential. But as we stake out the value proposition, we must also understand the fine line between a meaningful relationship and peripheral, or cheap, relationships. It's not unlike trying to answer that critical question in advertising circles: what is meaningful engagement? Notes Kalehoff, "Different exposures have qualitatively and quantitatively different impact."
So as I fumble through my own parameters of intimate relationships, I've come up with a few caveats if you tee me up as a friend or contact to help manage expectations:
But don't get me wrong. I still want friends. Really!

This guy Birkenfield was an go between for US folks trying to hide their wealth in Swiss Bank Accounts... he rolled over and later pled to one count, so instead of sucking it up and taking responsiblity he thinks it is unfair but will still try to recover the whistleblower money... he got a 40 month bid, and is whining .. don't do the crime if you can't do the time. 60 Minutes Video - Web Extra: The Undeclared Account - CBS.com A brief synopsis.. UBS whistleblower asks why he is going to prison | Reuters
He showed off his ankle monitor. I noticed he was wearing prolly $800 shoes and $500 slacks. I just wasn't feeling the pity.
He is also seeking several billion dollars in "reward money" which he has a pretty good chance of getting. Birkenfeld, who is to begin his prison term as soon as January, will seek "at least several billion dollars," says his lawyer, Stephen M. Kohn. It might sound like a pretty penny for a convicted felon, but some experts believe Birkenfeld, 44, has a good chance to cash in. "I do think he has a serious claim," said Erika A. Kelton, a partner at Phillips & Cohen, a law firm that specializes in large whistle-blower claims. "It was very credible, very useful information from inside UBS that he provided. The law is pretty clean on this." Under a 2006 whistle-blower law, explains the NYT's Lynnley Browning, informants now stand to collect 15 to 30% of the taxes, fines, penalties and interest ultimately collected by the I.R.S. In the case of UBS, the tally could run into the billions. Informants who are convicted of "planning" and "initiating" the schemes are not entitled to bounties. But Birkenfeld, is not seeking rewards for money collected from his own clients. Instead, his lawyers are arguing that he is entitled to a reward stemming from the thousands of others who have come forward in recent months about hidden, offshore bank accounts. From Snitch to Rich? The Case of UBS's Brad Birkenfeld - Law Blog - WSJ
The Whistle Blower stuff is interesting as you need deep pockets, which he has, to pursue it.. he will do time in a club fed somewhere (hopefully his cell will have a nice view).. and work in a prison library.. not quite sure why he would go on TV... he came on at a time I was already super aggravated, and he aggravated me even more. Suspect that if his whistle blower suit does have legs they will cut him a deal..

Mt. McKinley: Nugent & Team Bring Cache From 13,600'
Posted by: Billy Nugent, Kel Rossiter, Levi Kepsel | May 25, 2013
Categories: *Expedition Dispatches *Mount McKinley
Elevation: 14,200'
First and foremost, the biggest event of the day was Pete's birthday—14K on a sunny day is not a bad place for a party.
Today was a bit a work and a bit of play, or rest anyway. We started by moving the 13,600' cache. We moved the cache and carried the cache to 14K. Resting at the cache spot before our carry, we could hear the water flowing underground, deep under the glacier. The trip back to camp was smooth and everyone arrived back far from flippy-floppy. We enjoyed a relaxing afternoon in the peaceful oasis of our surroundings. Though we all could certainly get used to that lifestyle, we're also eager to make the most of this weather and the team's strength, so we're heading off to bed soon to get ready for tomorrow's carry up the fixed lines.

Phi: T. Young 17 Pts, 7 Reb, 1 Ast, 1 Stl
UTAH: D. Williams 27 Pts, 2 Reb, 6 Ast, 1 Stl, 1 Blk
SALT LAKE CITY -- Utah's power players are hurting, and Deron Williams has been for most of the season.
Williams got out of bed Monday feeling his best and made sure the reeling Philadelphia 76ers knew it. He scored 27 points to help the short-handed Jazz beat Philadelphia 112-95.
"It's probably the first time all season I've felt 100 percent, or close to it," Williams said. "It's the first game I've felt like that. Tonight, I was pain-free. I was definitely excited when I woke up this morning."
With two of Utah's top three scorers out with injuries and Mehmet Okur limited with a sore back, the normally unselfish Williams made 11 of 18 shots, including four 3-pointers. He has battled ankle and calf injuries since the preseason.
"He's looked so much more alive and looks healthier right now than I've seen him since he's been back," Utah coach Jerry Sloan said. "He has a lot more bounce in him it looks like than he had and that's great to see, because we certainly need everything he's able to give us."
Williams was able to drive to the basket and get elevation on his long-range jumpers as the 76ers played the passing lanes more than focusing on stopping the Utah point guard.
"He's our leader out there on the floor and he usually gets everyone involved. But he saw that he needed to take over tonight and score," said C.J. Miles, who had 14 points.
Okur, who missed the last two games with back spasms, did not have any explosiveness -- "He looked like he was pretty worn out," Sloan said -- but was crafty enough to score 19 points and grab 10 rebounds.
"They have to respect Memo everywhere on the court. He puts a lot of pressure on a defense," Williams said. "It was definitely good having him back. We needed him out there."
Andrei Kirilenko, filling in for injured power forwards Carlos Boozer and Paul Millsap, had 16 points and 13 rebounds, and changed a number of shots in the lane.
Andre Iguodala and Thaddeus Young each scored 17 points for Philadelphia, which dropped its fourth straight and is winless on its six-game road trip with three more remaining.
"They're a great team but either we got tired or we lost focus and our defense let us down in the second half," 76ers coach Tony DiLeo said.
The Jazz led 51-43 at halftime but Kirilenko set the tone for the second half with a steal and two free throws, followed by Williams' 3- pointer.
"Deron was amazing out there," Okur said. "He's a guy who makes good things happen for us out there, and once he gets hot he never stops."
Utah's lead never again dipped below seven and Kirilenko capped the quarter with a dunk to push the Jazz advantage to 79-64.
"We didn't get the same stops we got in the first half and we got in a tough spot down the stretch," Iguodala said.
Andre Miller, who had 13 points and eight assists, tried to rally the Sixers with eight points in a 3:38 span of the fourth quarter, but fouled out with 5:04 left to play.
After the Sixers pulled within 14, Kirilenko made a layup and Okur nailed Utah's eighth 3-pointer to put the game out of reach and send the starters to the bench. The 76ers made only one of their nine attempts from 3-point range and committed 15 turnovers that led to 20 points for the Jazz.
The 76ers had 25 fast-break points but got bogged down in their halfcourt sets and exerted little resistance as Williams and the Jazz repeatedly drove the lane and hit open jumpers.
"They're a really good team that really executes and plays well together and it's really tough if you are not on your game defensively," DiLeo said.
Utah swept the series for the second straight season and has won seven of eight and 13 of their last 16 meetings.
Kyle Korver scored 12 points and had five assists as the Jazz got a victory to start a key six-game stretch that features five at home.
The Sixers got 14 points from Lou Williams in their fifth straight game without Elton Brand, who has a right shoulder dislocation. The 76ers have dropped four straight after starting 3-0 under DiLeo, who replaced Maurice Cheeks.
Game notes
Reggie Evans got a technical foul for a forceful pat on Korver's backside that was deemed taunting by official Kevin Fehr with 7:29 remaining in the game. Marreese Speights also got a flagrant 1 foul in the final minutes for a hard foul on Kyrylo Fesenko. It was the one-year anniversary of Utah's acquisition from the Sixers of Korver, who helped the Jazz go 38-12 last season after starting 16-16 before the trade.

Then it was Korea again, Hongdae
By Alan Okami
Lucky me, we had a deal with our partners at Hawaiian Air from the Ukulele Fafe in Korea last fall. Me and my usual travel partner brother headed to Korea to get some business done. Of course, we ate, we saw friends and had a good time in between. Special bonus, found a massage guy that knows how to work this stubborn body of mine.
Hmm, I can get used to flying Pualani Gold. We got little bigger seats, extra snacks, and this cute amenity pack. One less omiage to buy my kids, ha ha.
Night market in Hongdae. Good stuff. During the week, it's pretty regular as far as traffic is concerned, but weekends are a different story. Anywhere you go, there's hordes of young people on dates and hanging out with one another.
This is a lady I've named chicken lady. She has a small hole in the wall shop that specializes in.......wait for it......CHICKEN! Ha ha, good guess.
Here's why I call her chicken lady. They serve up some mean kabobs. You can smell the chicken grilling in the open air as you walk up. Then they flavor it based on your preference. I opted to go with the spicy one, after all, this is Korea!
More to come from Korea. More food, and I'll reveal my massage guy. Lucky I get to travel, but even more lucky to come home to the best place in the world.

Gerrard rues Alonso exit
// A bit of a hack but it works// The article snippet is wrapped onto a second line, even when #article-sub is emptyif( $("div#article-sub").children().length == 0 ) {$("div#article-sub").remove();} Steven Gerrard admits Liverpool miss Xabi Alonso and that he was left devastated when his midfield partner joined Real Madrid. The pair were instrumental in Liverpool's success last season as Rafa Benitez's side proved credible challengers to Manchester United in the Premier League title race. Reds captain Gerrard, who is currently injured and misses Wednesday night's crunch UEFA Champions League clash with Lyon, played some of the best football of his career alongside the Spaniard. Alonso moved to Real Madrid in the summer and many have credited his departure as being a significant factor behind Liverpool's dramatic slump in form. Gerrard knew it would take Liverpool time to adapt to life without Alonso, who in a playmaker role was a vital cog in Benitez's team. "Devastated, yeah. Devastated. But there was nothing I could do about it," he told FourFourTwo magazine. "Xabi said a long time ago that he wanted another chapter in his career and finally he got it and his team-mates and the coaches couldn't stand in his way. "We just have to say thanks and move forward without him. "It's always going to be different when you lose one of the best players in the world - and people are finally realising that's what he is, on the back of his form for Real Madrid and the difference in us from last year. "We've got other midfielders here doing a good job but it will take a while before Alonso's out of our system because he was such a top player." Liverpool recouped around £30million for 27-year-old Alonso, and spent most of that on bringing replacement Alberto Aquilani to Anfield from Roma. Aquilani missed the first two months of the season due to injury and Liverpool have already lost seven matches.

Qualcomm Jumps on Dividend, Buyback Hike
NEW YORK (TheStreet) - Qualcomm (QCOM - Get Report) shares climbed in pre-market trading on Tuesday after the chip maker announced a 20% increase in its dividend and a $5 billion share repurchase hike.
Shares of the chipmaker rose 2.27% to $75.30 in pre-market trading.
The San Diego-based Qualcomm, which is a key provider of mobile device components, made the announcement ahead of its annual shareholders' meeting today. Qualcomm is increasing its quarterly dividend to 42 cents a share from 35 cents, effective March 26. The dividend increase will raise the company's annualized dividend payout to $1.68 per share of common stock.
Qualcomm's $5 billion share repurchase increase brings its current authorization to $7.8 billion.
"Consistent with our commitment of returning capital to our stockholders, we are pleased to increase our quarterly cash dividend and stock repurchase authorization," said Qualcomm Chairman CEO Paul Jacobs, in a statement. "Our business continues to generate strong operating cash flows driven by the global adoption of our advanced technologies, including 3G and 4G, enabling us to continue to invest in our strategic growth opportunities, while also returning capital to stockholders." Jacobs added that Qualcomm has returned more than $28 billion to stockholders through a combination of stock repurchases and cash dividends since 2003. Shares of the Samsung and Apple (AAPL) partner have risen more than 11% over the last 12 months, and were lifted by strong fourth-quarter results in January. The company recently acquired 1,400 granted and pending U.S. patents and 1,000 foreign patents from tech giant HP (HPQ). These include patents that HP acquired when it bought mobile device specialist Palm for $1 billion in 2010. Qualcomm, however, faces a challenge in China, where it has come under pressure from a government regulator over its licensing fees and market dominance. --Written by James Rogers in New York.

Mysterious shipment of arms scuttles friendships with Gambia and Senegal.
BANJUL, Gambia — Beyond the sleepy, Connecticut-sized nation he governs, Gambian President Sheikh Alhaji Yahya Abdul Azziz Jemus Junkung Jammeh is internationally known as something between a walking human rights concern — he once swore to "cut off the head" of every gay Gambian — and a farce: He markets a banana leaf-based "Presidential Cure for AIDS," and boasts a litany of dubious honorifics, including his "Award of Admiral in the Navy of the Great [landlocked] State of Nebraska."
But for the Islamic Republic of Iran — a geopolitically isolated administration that needs friends wherever it can find them — Jammeh represented a $2 billion investment in diplomatic aid since Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad took office in 2005.
In retrospect, it was never a sure investment.
While the United Nations imposes a fourth round of sanctions against the Tehran government, Ahmadinejad's foreign affairs ministry has been wooing Africa's dictators, democrats and diplomats alike in a full-scale charm offensive that was going well — until a bizarre shipment washed ashore in Lagos, Nigeria.
From Africa, Iran seeks uncompetitive markets for its industrial goods and unmonitored ports for its shipping lanes, analysts say. From Africa's leaders, Iran hopes to engender south-south solidarity whenever the next referendum on the country's nuclear program preoccupies the United Nations General Assembly.
Iran's Africa courtship for Africa's unclaimed U.N. votes and uncompetitive markets was blossoming into a full-blown romance — until Nigerian police caught the country smuggling guns through the continent's ports.
For a while the Iranians made headway in Africa. Until that 13-container cargo of Iranian guns wound up at Nigeria's customs desk, sparking an African backlash to Ahmadinejad's maneuvers.
"The head of state [Senegalese President Abdoulaye Wade] has affirmed his support for Iran in its struggle to fight against the proliferation of nuclear weapons," trumpeted a Senegalese government memo in November 2009, after Wade returned from his fourth visit to Tehran.
The Senegalese president's unlikely endorsement for Iran's nuclear program — which echoed Ahmadinejad's argument that America, not Iran, is the world's chief nuclear proliferator — joined the endorsements of Eritrea's President Isaias Afewerki and Zimbabwe's Robert Mugabe, who called Iran's nuclear ambitions "a just cause."
Wade's support came just weeks after the United States gifted Senegal a $540 million aid package.
But while President Barack Obama's administration grants tightly-regulated aid, Ahmadinejad's has been funding car factories and oil refineries on the continent, sharing African ports, financing Shi'a universities, and hosting regular summits to fete Africa's top dignitaries in Tehran.
"Iran is replicating what the Soviet Union did in Africa, and that is trying to create its own political and economic bloc against the West," Tel Aviv-based Middle East analyst Meir Javendanfar said. "They're trying to be a player, and Africa is a big part of their plan."
But those are just the parts of the plan it publicizes.
On Halloween, when Nigerian customs agents pried open one of the containers passing through Lagos port, they found an armory of rocket launchers, grenades, mortars, heavy explosives and guns — thousands of guns — all headed to a Gambian plantation owned by none other than President Jammeh.

My writing is usually a mix of satire, comedy, and analysis. I won't usually write deep or profound articles unless the moment really calls for it. I like to think of myself as a good writer because I like thinking about myself. I want you to laugh when you read my thoughts, nod your head, and finish up thinking, "I should tell someone else to read this." Enjoy!

quote:I'm just curious what you did for a living before retirement
quote:You're going to have to quote some posts to prove this. No offense, but I suspect your reading comprehension is the issue here.
quote:Assets - Debts = Net Worth (nobody using Mint?) You sell EVERYTHING you own. You pay off ALL your debts. Whatever money you in your pockets now, that's your net worth. If you couldn't pay your debts after selling everything, you have a negative net worth.
quote:Zach - anything you owe is a liability. It doesn't matter if its credit card balance, student loans, a mortgage,
quote:That's obviously a false statement. Let's go through it really slow: 1. You: "a mortgage is a liability" CORRECT 2. Everyone: "net worth is assets minus liability" Networth = Assets - Liability 3. Example: "I have ten bucks and a million dollar mortgage debt" 4. You: "Your net worth is ten bucks." You believe this to be false as you are using the following for assets and liabilities: ASSETS - $10 in your pocket LIABILITIES - $1,000,000 mortgage You believe the net worth should be 10 - 1,000,000 = -$999,990.00 Your liabilities portion is correct. However, you are excluding the value of the home (if there is one) in the assets column. Thus, if you truly have a home valued at $1,000,000 the following should be the formula: ASSETS = $10 in your pocket and $1,000,000 home LIABILITIES = $1,000,000 NET WORTH = ($10 + $1,000,000) - $1,000,000 = $10 Conclusion: Mortgage is not a liability. Your No. 1 and No. 4 are contradictions.
quote:3. Example: "I have ten bucks and a million dollar mortgage debt" 4. You: "Your net worth is ten bucks."
quote:My problem is not math. My problem is linquistics. I'm reading posts up in here that say two opposing things. 1. If you owe 100K on your house (your mortgage) that is not a liability. Therefore, it does not compute in the 'asset minus liability' formula for determining net worth.

Police: Hug Triggers Officer's Gun, Kills Woman - ABC News
Basic story: She was at a social gathering for her birthday. She hugged a party goer from behind.
He was an off duty officer, and somehow her hug caused his gun to fire. (I'll assume it was concealed.) She died.
Very sad.
Warning to all about keeping the trigger well covered and protected at all times.
I wonder what he was carrying and in what type of holster. It almost sounds like it had to be a shoulder holster with the gun pointing backward on the horizontal.

New Hampshire college baseball heats up
On Sunday, the Big Green evened their Ivy League record at 9-9 after a doubleheader sweep of Harvard in Hanover. Dartmouth junior Matt Parisi swatted a two-run, walk-off homer for a 3-1 nightcap win. Dartmouth, a 4-2 winner in the opener, must defeat Harvard twice today in Cambridge, Mass., to tie Yale (11-9) atop the Ivy League's Red Rolfe Division. The doubleheader begins at 1 p.m. Should Dartmouth (15-19 overall) sweep today and tie Yale, the Big Green would host the Bulldogs in a special playoff game this weekend for the division crown.

In order to obtain an estimate of the overall level of correlation between mRNA and protein abundances for a well-characterized pharmaceutically relevant biological system, we have analyzed human liver by quantitative two-dimensional electrophoresis (for protein abundances) and by Transcript Image methodology (for mRNA abundances). Incyte's LifeSeq database was searched for expressed sequence tag (EST) sequences corresponding to a series of 23 proteins identified on 2-D maps in the Large Scale Biology (LSB) Molecular Anatomy database, resulting in estimated abundances for 19 messages (4 were undetected) among 7926 liver clones sequenced. A correlation coefficient of 0.48 was obtained between the mRNA and protein abundances determined by the two approaches, suggesting that post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression is a frequent phenomenon in higher organisms. A comparison with published data (Kawamoto, S., et al., Gene 1996, 174, 151-158) on the abundances of liver mRNAs for plasma proteins (secreted by the liver) suggests that higher abundance messages are strongly enriched in secreted sequences. Our data confirms this: of the 50 most abundant liver mRNAs, 29 coded for secreted proteins, while none of the 50 most abundant proteins appeared to be secreted products (although four plasma and red blood cell proteins were present in this group as contaminants from tissue blood).

A masterpiece!Why, oh WHY did this have to arrive just in time for Christmas? LOL I saw this astonishing dress just after my Carismma Sheath dress, in black, arrived. At first I thought this version was too close, but irl, it's in a class of it's own. You can barely tell from the photo, but the fabric on the bodice and skirt are different. The top has tiny circles with dots of red. The placket is also a different pattern, but instead of the hot mess I expected, the whole thing works to make you look like the most stunning creature in the room. Very, very flattering on most body types, but I'd dare say especially on the hourglass girl. This is the dress I would wear to dinner, to weddings, to business meetings with a jacket, to tea, to lunch with the girls, where wouldn't I wear this? Fit is tts, much like the Carismma sheath. I pray that it doesn't sell out before I can get my hands on one! Or, maybe, just maybe, it will show up under the tree!
Vintage, and modern at the same time. LOVE!!I cannot say enough good things about this dress! I absolutely love it! Fit is amazing, and so comfortable. Love how you can use the sash or not as well, really changes the look. I love the length as well. I usually like to have my knees covered up but most dresses end up being too long or they just dont give you that girly feeling. This dress nails it! One of my most favorite purchase's from Anthropology. Very classic and timeless dress.
Even better than I hoped!I visited this dress many times on the website, hoping it would go on sale, but finally decided to bit the bullet and pay full price. Prior reviews listed its unique detail and surprises that made this dress a conversation piece (and why I love Anthropologie!) and it didn't disappoint! It is form fitting and sexy in a smart-girl way, but it also possesses an artistic/couture quality that renders it timeless. I am 5'6 and a 35" bust/128 lbs and went with the 4p, as I prefer the hem to hit me at or above the knee. The fabric has stretch, which allows it to fit to your body, not bulge and buckle as a stiff fabric would do. I also cut the belt loops and moved belt/ribbon down so it would hit my waist, as the petite waist was higher- no problem at all. I am SOOO happy I splurged and know this will be a 'go to' dress for years to come.

Lovely and SoftI agree with the positive comments of other reviewers. This dress is soft, comfortable, and pleasantly flattering. I like the high/low hem; the "high" part is about 4 inches above my knees. The longest part is mid-calf. The hemline is pretty much as shown on the model. To state the obvious, the key is to find the right size. For reference I am just under 5'9" and 148 lbs. I usually wear a medium, but found that the small actually had a better drape to it on me. A sales associate told me that the dress did tend to run a bit big. The sleeves were a little snug when rolled up, but not when rolled down. Do check to be sure that where the buttons are on the sleeves there is also a corresponding loop. I tried on one dress where a loop was missing. Also, this may be just me, but I paid attention to the symmetry of the pattern, particularly the collar and bodice. I was not so concerned about the rest of the dress, recognizing there will always be some asymmetry and that is actually part of the charm. This is one dress that I feel is best tried on in person. I tried on several before finding "the one".
Great cozy dress!I love this dress. I'm an employee at Anthropologie and I bought this dress the minute we got it in stock. I tried it on in a Large, which I typically wear a Large, unless something runs smaller then I will size up to an XL. I will say after finally wearing it the other day I wish I tried on the Medium. There is a lot of fabric on this dress on the bottom, and I think the Medium would've fit my upper body a little better. But oh well, I still think the large is fine, just a little extra loose. I wore it with the sleeves unrolled, and I buttoned it all the way up (except for the top button) and layered three different necklaces with it just to spice it up a bit. Also I paired with it tan colored booties and my black leather jacket. It's a great transitional piece from Fall/Winter to Spring/Summer. I feel like the material is super light weight to be able to wear in the warmer months with flats or super strappy flat sandals would be cute too. If you are thinking of getting this dress I highly recommend it. It does fit more true to size, unless you have a smaller bust then you could go one size down if you want a slightly tighter fit in the upper body area.
In LOVE with this dress!!I ordered this dress online in my normal size large. As soon as I pulled it from the package I knew it was going to be too big and it was VERY loose. So on a trip into Dallas I exchanged it for a medium, which fit perfectly! It was still nice and flowy! I know some people were saying this dress could be tight in the bust, but it wasn't for me. My bust measures 40" around. So I think the trick is to buy the dress to fit your bust. For reference, I typically wear a size 12, 158lbs, and 5'6".

Conversation TopicThe work on this dress is out of this world. It was a conversation topic at dinner! One of the reason I always choose this cut is because I have a very short torso. The dress comes with a black dress. I choose to not wear it. I am in between two sizes 6-8. I have an "Athletic" shape. Tops I am an 8 and bottoms 6, so I bought both sizes, the 8 was loose and the 6 needed me to hold perfect posture. So be prepare to hold your head high! You'll look prettier. The dress length of course fit me longer than the model – but nothing that a pair of nude high heel doesn't fix. The neckline will look just like in the picture... it didn't look flattering on me with the zipper all the way up. Which is just perfect paired up with tiny jewelry. What I didn't like (and you can't see it very good in the picture) is that the above the shoulder there is a piece of fabric – same one from the back section – that in my opinion is too wide. The sleeves on me looked very puffy– I had to "shorten" those too. I am 5'5. 135, 34D, Short torso, Long legs, skinny shaped arms
WowzaI just received this dress in the mail. I plan to wear it to an awards ceremony and also to a high-profile event, so for the price, it was well-worth it as I can wear it twice. However, I would purchase this dress based on its beauty alone and would try to FIND an event to wear it to. It is just beautiful. The embroidery, the lace and the colors are outstanding. When I first laid eyes on it, it took my breath away. It is definitely one-of-a-kind and definitely a break from the normal, black dress (if that is what you are accustomed to.) I would say this dress has an Asian flair to it, based on the floral design. This totally reminds me of my mother's wedding dress when she was married in Vietnam (from what I've seen in pictures :). I will say this dress is more on the fitted size rather than not, but if you can carry it off, then do it. I am 5'4", 118 lbs and bought the size 2, which was a good choice for me. I am not curvaceous and would say it was fitted more so on the lower half than top -- and you can use the zipper to adjust for other "assets," as shown in the picture. I am wearing the belt that it comes with, which I happen to like, as opposed to another reviewer. It's whatever works for you though!!! I have to say this is a wonderful purchase and I have no regrets :)
This dress is extremely unique and prettyI love this dress. The design, quality and fit are perfect! I'm normally a size S, for this case I bought a 2P which fits me perfectly, just like it was tailored for me. I got a discount 25% when I bought this, but even without the discount, this dress worth every single penny. Grab it before it gone !

Just as Pictured!I'm tall with an ample chest and wide hips (hourglass type) -- so I bought this in an XL because I thought I would need the room and the length. However, there is a lot of stretch to this dress -- so I think I could have gotten away with a L. I'm not returning it though -- the larger size still works, and the stretch in the chest and hip areas makes it even more comfortable. The length is perfect -- not short for those of us with long legs. Also, it is lightly lined inside the dress to the knees. The dress is extremely comfortable and stylish. I love the design -- its JUST as it appears in the picture.
Stunning!I saw this dress on the mannequin and had to try it on! So I just grabbed the first small and it just fell perfectly on my body. It ends a bit above the ankle, but I can deal with that. The only thing I would suggest to someone wanting to buy this dress is buy it in store!! Not online as each dress is a different pattern. Of course they chose the perfect pattern online, but the dress I tried on had majority pink at the top, so I swapped it for a pattern I loved! The dress looks much better in person too.
acesIf you dig the dress when you see it, you will love it on. I'm convinced. It's hella soft and so, so comfortable, it's flattering, and it has pockets! It's my dream maxi. I'm 5'9 and usually wear a size 12, so I was worried the large might be snug or short, but it is neither. It's so stretchy that it forgives and flatters and did I already say comfortable?? I could curl up in one of those weird circle chairs and nap in it with no blanket! Or I could put on one of them vests like bangs o'quinn in the photo and be the loveliest girl at the next oyster roast. Basically this dress is my life now. Praise Dress.

Fun and EdgyGotta say I didn't recognize this online when I went looking to write a review. I almost passed it up in the store, as well, but it was facing the dressing room, I loved the "tribal" influence, and on a whim grabbed it "just to see". Big surprise how unique and flattering this is. On me it's a dress (5'1" 115 32DD) took the PXS/S and I plan to wear it that way with tights and booties. The front hit just above my knee with a slightly longer back. The top is not as loose on me as on the model and the bottom curves in slightly keeping it from being totally straight and shapeless. Will look great with the long two toned horn earrrings I bought at Athro last summer. Can't imagine it with boyfriend jeans, although it would probably be fine with skinnies. Although I usually look best in fit and flair, as I'm petite, but hourglass, I'm thrilled with this new look for me. Plan to wear it year 'round.
So happy I purchsed this dressReceived it this morning and so happy with it. True to size, looks great with tights and knee high boots, lovely and soft There are a few designers I like at Anthro...and this is one of them. Make this a must buy.
Another winner by Tracy Reese!I wasn't sure about this tunic/dress when I saw it online, but in person the shading and design is so unique and eye-catching, you find yourself picking it up! The super soft fabric blend has spandex which makes this dress feel so good on as well. Because of the reviews I originally got a small thinking that as a petite person the dress would be overwhelming. But, I found the sleeves were super tight, so I sized back to my usual medium, and the dress fits very nicely. I say dress, because at 5'3 the front is only slightly above the knees. I also have good skimming coverage over my chest and hips, unlike the smaller size which was too exact. Feels like I'm wearing a big sweatshirt, except it looks so chic! Pair with a low ankle bootie and leggings or bare legs in warmer areas.

PRETTY!!I bought three different dresses on line--and this one was on the verge of being cut, but I bought it anyway. The pictures do NOT do this pretty dress justice. Every once in a while you find something that you absolutely love--for me, this was it. Can't believe I almost passed it up! It's slightly vintage--but NOT matronly at all. It's a beautiful print, fits at the TRUE waist and is flowy--but NOT poufy, just the right length and completely flattering. It's simply a homerun. I've tried it on with boleros/ fitted short red cardi/ chunky necklaces/ boots/ red heels with black tights/ red tights with black heels. In love. If you are busty or thick armed--you may want to size up. My usual size 6 was great (I'm a 36C)--but if I was bustier, I would've had to size up.
Feminine FloralThis floral dress is stunning in person. I fell in love with it the moment I tried it on... and every time I wear it, I receive loads of compliments. It's the perfect match of vintage and modern with the feminine shape and the vibrant print. I believe this dress runs true to size, but I would be mindful of the sleeves. The fabric is certainly forgiving, but the sleeves don't have much room. You can wear this on its own or belt it with an open cardigan. Both gorgeous looks. Highly recommend.
Gorgeous design but too expensive for the qualityI LOVE this dress and couldn't wait for it to arrive from backorder. The vintage style and fit feel so ladylike. In addition, the dress is super comfortable and I couldn't stop twirling around in it. I can imagine wearing it to a wedding, brunch, or to work in my classroom. Since the fabric is stretchy, it accommodates an hourglass figure well. Despite my height and a 34DD bust, the size 8 fit me perfectly. However, even with a promotional code, I still found the dress to be overpriced. The material has me seriously debating how well the dress will hold up over time. Aside from the gorgeous design, it just doesn't have that Anthro quality I've come to expect. If the dress were half as much, I'd have no hesitation. As it is, I'm seriously debating returning it and crossing my fingers for a sale.

Don't let this one get awayI had no intention of buying this dress at full price - but I shouldn't have tried it on. It fits really well! I like the unique styling on the top - how it covers your shoulders rather than just being a "tank-styled" top. The style of the top was a little different on all size S in my store - the center piece of the bodice was mainly navy with a small green spot or spots. It didn't bother me too much though. At 5'5", the regular length will require that I wear heels, which is unfortunate, but I think the P would be too short if it's "perfect" for one of the other reviewers, who is 5'3". The empire waist of this dress hides a few sins, without being frumpy and without looking like it's doing any hiding. There is a nice flow to the skirt. The lining only comes to my knees - which was a little distracting but not enough to dissuade me from purchasing the dress. The colors are very vibrant - and I think this dress looks way better in person than it does on the model (and how many times can you say that??). The fact that the dress is washable was a must in my book - hopefully it holds up in the gentle cycle.
Flattering dress!Such a great dress- I had to try it on the day it arrived in store. Colors are very, very bright and fun. Fit is SO flattering and the wider sleeves are really nice- no bra strap slippage. Fabric is comfy and nice.The girls are definitely saying hello a bit with the deep v, but I don't think it is inappropriate. It is really long. I am 5'2", 36, 27, 36 and I generally take smalls or extra smalls. I can generally get away with just taking the XS home from the store, since I usually wear at least a little heel anyway, but I had to get petite this time. I ordered the XS petite and it fits perfectly!
Super comfy and stunning style when on.I just bought this dress yesterday. Very comfortable, flattering and stunning style. I am 5'7" , 135 pounds, the medium was too big and I am alittle busty, 36C- but the small fit perfect and was perfect length for me. If you are considering buying, do it!

SKA "Autumnal Mole Stout"
SKA Brewing - Durango, Colorado USA
Stout (ABV 5.5%)
[Suggested Glassware: Nonic Pint]
Rating: 3.3/5.0
Aroma: 7/10
Appearance: 3/5
Taste: 7/10
Palate: 2/5
Overall: 14/20
The pour was a murky dark brown with a small (less than 1 finger) fizzy light brown head that was fully diminishing and had no lacing at all.
The aroma was of a roasted malt and a leathery doughy yeast with notes of dark roasted coffee, dark chocolate, molasses and a mild hint of chilis.
The taste was much like the aroma, lightly sweet and a tad malty with a touch of chocolate and molasses early on and then becoming very lightly bitter with a shot of coffee and a hard to notice hint of the chili peppers towards the finish. The flavor lasted an average time after the swallow, with a mildly bitter mocha coffee taste and a super light peppery feel at the very end.
Mouthfeel was medium in body with a thin watery texture and an almost mild carbonation.
Overall this brew was not what I expected from a Chili Stout. I am always leary about peppery beers, but this one was very tasty with just a light peppery presence. I can see myself having this again...
