Great slipper
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
Height: 6' 0"Weight: 175 lbsSize Purchased: 42.5
I normally don't like climbing in slippers because they feel sloppy, but this slipper clings to your feet. It has good tactility and fits my narrow feet well.

Awesome Shoe
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
Ok so I've had the Vapor V's for a little over a year now and they have been performing great. I climb almost everyday at my schools gym and also take frequent trips outdoors for some TR and bouldering. These were my first shoes I bought and I am not disappointed. Edging on these shoes are insane and they are very comfortable. One problem I've had with these shoes is that the rubber stays very hard and sharp, which isn't necessarily a problem its just something I would prefer didn't happen. I wear a size 8.5 mens and I got these shoes in 39 and they fit great. Overall they are awesome shoes I would definitely recommend them for someones first pair or someone looking to get a solid pair that'll last a while!

im looking to get a pair of scarpas for my next climbing shoe but i dont know their sizing. i have a wide foot and i wear a 9.5 in shamans. would this shoe do well with wide feet?
Paul Nanawa
Most people tend to downsize half size to one whole size from their street shoe size depending on how aggressive of a fit they want. Occasionally, we'll see people downsize 1.5-2 sizes for a really aggressive fit but it isn't to common
While that's usually true, I just went a size up when I switched to this shoe. I wear a 43.5 in the not at all aggressive La Sportiva Mythos, yet I'm in a 45 in the Vapor with room for them to still stretch a half size or so.

The Vapor V's are my go to comfort shoe from Scarpa. They fill a spot in my mind similar to the Moccasym, but the Vapors have a more adjustable fit due to the Velcro. Additionally, the Vapors have a very slight downturn and asymmetric shape which allows for greater precision than most session shoes. I can do the majority of my projects in these only to run up the hill to jump on something else without taking them off. Additionally, these are the shoes that I choose for endurance laps in the gym. They take a phenomenal beating before needing to be replaced or resoled.

2 pairs later
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I just bought my second pair of these that i use outside only and while my first pair gets resoled. These shoes are amazing! The toe box gives me great edging and for me they are super comfortable. The heel which I have heard takes awhile to break in fit me perfect and i don't have that awkward air in my heel area. They're a great shoe and will continue to use them and get them resoled for a long long time. I wear a street shoe in 13, but bought them in a 12 and they stretched out well in my first pair. My second pair is also a 12, but fit a little bit bigger. You could easily got down a full size to a size and a half.
Is there a noticeable difference in stiffness...
Is there a noticeable difference in stiffness and/or sensitivity between the XS Edge version and the previous XS Grip2 version?

My go to sport climbing shoe!
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
I bought these shoes with the intention of getting a more aggressive shoe that wont be uncomfortable to wear after a few climbs. In comparison to other shoes these are moderately aggressive, but I like it this way. I have now climbed on them extensively this past summer, for a few trips this winter, and they are perfect! They provide just enough of a toe curl to feel confident with your footing when climbing overhung routes. In addition, the heel cup on the shoes is comfortable enough to encourage heel hooks. Sure its nice to take them off after several routes, but that's what makes it a great sport climbing shoe. Plus its nice to go bare foot in the down time!

These were my first shoes i ever climbed with and were given to me because my friend was getting new shoes. When these shoes were given to me they were so close to having the toe blowing out and i still loved them. once the toe blew out i wanted to get a brand new pair to really see how good they were. Since they were my first pair of course i went and got way to big of a size but they still were great shoes for sport climbing. when i bouldered in them even when they were to big they were great. when on overhanging routes they are okay but i think they are perfect all around shoes but a better shoe for sport climbs. only one thing i did not like with the shoes is that when you notice the toe going out it blows out pretty fast.

Great Moderately Aggressive Shoe
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: Runs large
The break in was a little tough but now that are perfect. The stretch in the fabric is minimal. I sized down a half size from the lower of the two recommended sizes for my size.
I am a US 8.5 and I went with a 39.5.
The only gripe about this show is that the material on the top of my toes is slowly coming undone. Not quite a full tear yet but will be in the near future.
ben c
does that mean the rubber doesn't extend over the toe knuckles?
The rubber does NOT extend over the toe knuckles. Fantastic shoe regardless. Ordering another pair.
Moderately Aggressive
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have had a couple pairs of these in the last few years and have always been happy with them. They are not the most aggressive velcros that I have worn but they definitely have a good downturned toe. There is a bit of extra volume in the heel but its really around the sides. The back of the heel and up the Achilles has good pressure and I have been able to heel hook with them better than most other shoes I've tried. I climbed 5.10 Galileo?s for a while but always had issues with my heel slipping.
These seem to stretch a bit more than some other similar shoes as well. I ordered and exchanged for a smaller size twice with backcountry before finding a size I wanted to stick with, but I would probably go down .5 size more next time.
The photo below shows them after about 6 months of use. They've held up well but have no downturn in the toe anymore.

Great Shoes
Great shoes! They are super comfy, break in quick, and perform well. I mainly boulder and these are my go to shoes. I should have sized down a half size though. My two other pairs of scarpas fit slightly tighter in the same size. Like other people have said there is a slight bit of dead space in the heals but they have never slipped off while heal hooking. Would recommend.
Great shoe
I've owned both XS grip2 and the XS edge. I feel the edges wear better and offer performance on solid pin point hold but don't smear and flag as well as their stickier counterpart. But I feel the construction is better and the sued upper is a little more durable.
Either way love em.
Note: if you're having problem with heel cup being to spacious down size a little more till they are hurt to the point of foot binding. Then wear the crap out of them and in a week or two they will fit like an uncomfortable tight dream shoe.
Is there a noticeable difference in stiffness and/or sensitivity between the XS Edge version and the previous XS Grip2 version?
The edge rubber is stiffer and less responsive. But the grip wears out so fast if the walls at your gym, or the surface your climbing has any ruff texture they'll wear down faster than you will believe. It's a give and take.

WASHINGTON — The House of Representatives won't vote on any plans to avert the "fiscal cliff" on Monday, leaders have told members.
Earlier that morning, an agreement to avert the "fiscal cliff" of automatic tax increases and spending cuts appeared to be "within sight," President Barack Obama said.
A GOP source told CNN negotiators are "very close" to a deal. The sticking point is $24 billion in spending cuts being sought by Republicans in place of deeper cuts that would automatically take effect at midnight, according to the source.
"It's like looking under the cushions at this point," the source said. "If we can't find that at this point, we should pack this place up."
A congressional Democratic source agreed that spending cuts are the main hold up now.
But House GOP sources told CNN that they think it increasingly unlikely they'll vote on the proposal before Tuesday.
There's little practical difference in settling the issue Monday night versus Tuesday, the sources said. One exception: if House Republicans approve the bill on Tuesday -- when taxes have technically gone up -- they can argue they've voted for a tax cut to bring rates back down, even after just a few hours, GOP sources said.
That could bring some more Republicans on board, one source said.
"I wouldn't overestimate it, but a handful may be the difference we need," the source said.
The proposal under discussion Monday afternoon called for rolling back tax rates on the highest-income earners to Clinton-era levels, increasing the estate tax rate, extending unemployment benefits and potentially putting off the $110 billion in automatic spending cuts called for in the legislation that created the cliff, according to sources close to the process.
A source familiar with the negotiations said the proposal under discussion would generate $600 billion in revenues by ending the Bush-era tax cuts on individuals with incomes above $400,000 and families over $450,000. Their tax rate would be 39.6%, the same as it was in 2000 during President Bill Clinton's presidency. The top income rate is currently 35%.
The deal would also increase the estate tax to 40% from the current 35% level and cap itemized deductions for individuals with incomes above $250,000 and household income over $300,000, the source said.
In addition to the tax proposals, also under discussion is a proposal to delay the $110 billion in automatic cuts in domestic and military spending due over the next nine months, a draconian approach called sequester that was created by Congress to address the impact of high deficits and debt on the U.S. economy.
Republicans want a three-month delay while Democrats seek to forestall the cuts by one year, a Democratic source told CNN. Another Democratic source said the proposed three-month delay "can't pass."
Despite Obama's backing, one leading Senate Democrat warned the deal could run into trouble -- not only from House Republicans who have long opposed any tax increase, but also from liberals in the Senate who oppose allowing more high-income households to escape a tax increase.
"No deal is better than a bad deal, and this looks like a very bad deal the way this is shaping up," Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, said.
If nothing gets done before Monday at midnight, broad taxes hikes will kick in as the Bush-era cuts expire and the deep spending cuts will begin to take hold.
The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office has predicted the combined effect could dampen economic growth by 0.5%, possibly tipping the U.S. economy into a recession and driving unemployment from its current 7.7% back over 9%.

County leaders will meet today to discuss soliciting bids for the Film Commission program, a series of building improvements in Shoshone and committee appointments for board members.
The Board of Supervisors will meet at 9 a.m. in the County Administrative Center in Independence.
The board is scheduled to consider a list First District Supervisor Linda Arcularius has recommended outlining a number of committee assignments for new Second District Supervisor Jeff Griffiths, Fourth District Supervisor Mark Tillemans and Fifth District Supervisor Matt Kingsley, as well as herself and Third District Supervisor Rick Pucci.
Members of the Board of Supervisors divide up appointments to more than 40 various committees and advisory groups, including the Eastern Sierra Council of Governments, the City of Bishop Liaison Committee and the Agricultural Advisory Board.
The draft list recommends Kingsley and Pucci serve on the Agricultural Advisory Board; Kingsley and Arcularius serve on the Great Basin Unified Air Pollution Control District; Pucci and Tillemans serve on the Indian Gaming Local Community Benefit Committee; Arcularius serve on the Inyo Council for the Arts; and Griffiths serve as the California State Association of Counties representative for Inyo County.
For a full list of committee appointments for the board, visit www.inyocounty.ca.
At 9:30 a.m. the board is scheduled to discuss and possibly approve a Request for Proposals for Inyo County Film Commissioner Services or consider alternatives.
The county has budgeted $40,000 this year for Film Commissioner services, provided for the last six years by Chris Langley of Lone Pine.
The board switched from approving LangleyŌĆÖs contract every year to opening the contract to an RFP format last year, at the request of then-Fourth District Supervisor Marty Fortney who said that others were interested in applying for the job.
The board will also meet with representatives from the Eastern Sierra Area Agency on Aging to discuss current issues affecting the delivery of services to seniors.
The board will also consider approving an improvement project for two modular buildings in Shoshone.
According to a staff report, the Inyo County SheriffŌĆÖs Department purchased two modular homes to house resident deputies in the community. The buildings were constructed to Housing and Community Development standards, which allowed installation of single-pane windows and reduced wall thickness insulation, ŌĆ£among other construction cost saving measures,ŌĆØ the staff report states.
Inyo County Public Works is now saying the roofs on the buildings have been losing composition shingles for a number of years and have exceeded their useful life and are beyond reasonable repair.
ŌĆ£The Public Works Department is requesting approval of plans and specifications to improve these two modular homes,ŌĆØ the staff report states.
The improvements would include the replacement of the existing windows, new roofing and other improvements.
The Public Works Department is proposing to use the county building maintenance fund to complete the improvements.
The board is also scheduled to hear a presentation from county Planning staff regarding coordination with the U.S. Forest Service on the Inyo National Forest Plan Update/Revision.
This meeting is open to the public and time will be set aside for residents to make comments to the board.

Burmese blogger speaks out against Islamophobia
A Burmese blogger speaks out against Islamophobia in his country. A Syrian rebel unwittingly becomes an online sensation. And an American spending his vacation helping strangers around the world…
Burmese blogger speaks out against Islamophobia
Nay Phone Latt had been sentenced to twenty years in prison by the Burmese military junta for his links to the "Saffron Revolution" Buddhist monk led protests back in 2007. He was freed, along with hundreds of others at the beginning of the year, as part of a political prisoner amnesty decreed by the government which has recently undertaken a series of reforms.
The 32 year old blogger is now one of the few people in Burma to speak out against Islamophobia, as anti-Muslim sentiment is becoming increasingly prevalent and open following the violent clashes between Buddhists and Muslims which broke out two months ago in the north west of the country.
Nay Phone Latt has published an article on his blog warning of "genocide" of the stateless Rohingya Muslim minority that is not officially recognized by Burma as one if its ethnic groups.
The activist's stance has had a negative impact on his popularity; just a few months ago he was a poster boy for online resistance to the former junta. He has been severely criticized on his Facebook page, with web users reproaching him for supporting the Rohingya, seen by most Burmese people as illegal immigrants.
The UN describes Burma's Rohingya community as one of the world's most persecuted minorities, and as the NGO Human Rights Watch explains in this video, thousands have tried to flee the violence and seek refuge in Bangladesh in recent months, but since 2010 they have been denied entry.
"Ridiculously photogenic Syrian rebel" meme goes viral
In the space of a few days, a Syrian rebel has unwittingly become the object of all sorts of fantasies … the opponent of the Bashar al-Assad regime was photographed in the region of the city of Idlib on June 15 by Khalil Hamra a journalist for the "Associated Press" news agency. The shot was recently reposted by a member of community site Reddit along with the tagline "Ridiculously photogenic Syrian rebel" the pic soon went viral, catapulting the soldier to online stardom.
Messages from web users, totally won over by the Syrian rebel's undeniable good looks soon started pouring in online. Saying, for example, women want to be with him and men want to be him. Others compliment his perfect hair and wonder how he managed to stay looking so good with all the fighting going on around him.
And web users have also been posting photomontages paying tribute to the "ridiculously photogenic Syrian rebel". Hundreds of creations have appeared online, highlighting, some more subtly than others, the young man's handsome features. The amusing posters often come with a slogan explaining something along the lines of his good looks are the only weapons needed to win the war, or that loyalist troops and snipers are so blown away by his looks that they cannot bring themselves to fire at him.
With the relentless fighting and bloodshed across Syria, some may perceive the frenzy surrounding the solider as inappropriate, but as Cara Parks explains in an article posted on the Foreign Policy website, any excuse to talk about the war in Syria is a good one, and if talking about a good-looking rebel helps bring about change in Syria, then so be it.
Traveling around the world to help strangers
One of Daniel's family members works for an airline so he gets to travel for next to nothing. But instead of spending his vacation partying or relaxing, he decided to do favours for complete strangers he had met online. And so Daniel spent 11 weeks carrying out all sorts of good deeds from moving someone's sofa in Denver, to teaching English in Thailand as well as hunting down giant spiders in Australia.
The nicest place on the Internet
The site "Thenicestplaceontheinter.net" offers a somewhat novel service because it gives out virtual hugs. So, if you've had a tough day at work, or finding it difficult to get over a failed relationship, you can seek some comfort from perfect strangers. It's a lovely idea and brings a touch of warmth to this harsh world.
Video of the day
Air travel can sometimes be a little long, but whilst on board a flight during the Australian leg of their tour, Kanye West's dancers decided to improvise a short show to the music of his hit "Runaway": a totally unexpected moment of inflight entertainment for other lucky passengers which you can check out in its entirety on sharing sites.

Great Fit, Look Good I bought these jeans for my husband and he absolutely loves them. They fit him really well, even at a 38x34 size, and he can move around without feeling like he's going to tear them. The color is awesome (just make sure you wash them at least once or twice by themselves or with other dark jeans because they bleed a bit) and the fit looks oh so good on him! The only not-positive thing he said was that they just need to be broken in because they're a little tight around the calves. Other than that they're great jeans and we both love them!

Dear Santa:
Often, Santa, we are short-sighted and worry more about the size of government or the size of our tax bill and inadvertently put our children and our economy at risk. Santa, you understand that when we treat mental health disease, we not only avoid tragedies like the one in Newtown Conn., but we put happier, more productive, tax-paying citizens into our workforce. I would gladly pay more in taxes if that meant better mental health care and the saving of even one life from the carnage we've seen recently. By treating mental illness, we gain more wage earners paying taxes and have fewer people living off government subsidies.
With all the literature about you, Santa, there is nothing to indicate your stance on gun control. Clearly you care for all of us, especially our children. Isn't it time we made some changes to gun accessibility? As important as the second amendment is to some of us, our right to life is more important to all of us. Perhaps the "bad guys" will find a way to get dangerous weapons despite our best efforts, but we don't have to make it easy for them. Gun sales have actually increased since the Newtown tragedy. Santa, why can't the gun associations be as visible in protecting our society from irresponsible gun possessors as they are in promoting gun ownership?

It's tempting to think that losing weight through cycling is so elementary a concept it requires no elaboration. Ride more and make a few changes to diet and lifestyle, and you're on your way, right? But of course it's not that simple, particularly if you're a beginner or are riding with purpose for the first time. Who better, then, to share strategies for success than Bicycling readers who have shed anywhere from 20 to 230 pounds? These folks discarded the fad diets and took to the roads and grocery aisles to figure out what works.
The Long Climb Back
Mark Morales
Age: 45
Hometown: Fairless Hills, Pennsylvania
Weight lost riding: 145 pounds
When he weighed 325, Mark Morales discovered that being heavy meant carrying more than just the excess pounds. As a field-service engineer in the oil and gas division for Siemens, he splits his time between the road and his home office. Between the sedentary work and constantly eating out, Morales became mired in unhealthy routines. "You're just mucking along," he says. "You have no energy and you realize something's got to change." His size weighed heavily on his psyche: "You get on an airplane and you can see people thinking, Please don't sit next to me."
So Morales decided in August 2010 to make a change. Cycling was a natural choice because it had been a childhood passion—he and his friends used to spend entire days tearing up the roads. "I used to read BMX magazines when I was younger, thinking I may race someday," he recalls. It wasn't so hard to imagine riding a mountain bike. So he changed his diet—eliminating alcohol and empty calories like pizza—took up his friends' advice that he buy a Giant Trance X2, and hit the trails.
• "To get big and stay big," he says, "you have to eat big." Aim for five smaller, healthier meals rather than three large ones.
• Park your car at the far end of the lot at work and the store, for what Morales refers to as "accidental exercise."
• Exercise at least 60 minutes a day, but at different intensity levels. Mix in recovery days to maximize your gains.
• "I stopped drinking alcohol and began avoiding bread, pizza, and all those things we know we shouldn't eat."
Cycling was ideal because he had bad knees. "It's low-impact exercise, and I can ride from the house or use a trainer when the weather is bad or it's dark," Morales says. Still, his journey included ups and downs that went well beyond the hilly paths. As he locked in on riding, he had big weight-loss weeks and stretches where he faltered. But the overall results were unmistakable. The pounds melted away over about six months, and he decided to try out an aluminum Giant Defy road bike, which allowed him to leave for rides right from his house instead of driving to the park trails. He still rides the mountain bike and his Giant on a trainer on rainy days. For good weather he purchased what he describes as his "pride and joy"—a 2012 Specialized S-Works Tarmac.
He has dropped to 180 in the past two-plus years, and found that returning to his childhood passion lightened his soul as well. "Even though you're tired, your legs hurt, even your butt a little bit, you have a smile on your face," he says.
Morales recently attended a climbing camp organized by Carmichael Training Systems that included a 14-mile ascent. He couldn't have imagined doing something like that just two years earlier. And when he climbed on the plane and found in his assigned seat, he didn't worry for a moment about the person sitting next to him.

Thanks to one ill-advised Instagram photo, the world is now on Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez Reunion Watch. Thanks, Biebs. Now, we have to launch a full-on investigation into your personal lives. So far, we've come up with three solid pieces of evidence that Gomez is back to Beliebing.
Exhibit A: On Saturday, Bieber posted a short-lived photo of a girl who looks a lot like Gomez getting very cozy with his face on the very same day that Gomez was reportedly in Norway, where Bieber was performing. Curious? You betcha.
Exhibit B: Now, there's even more proof that Gomez is backsliding right into Bieber's arms: a video of Bieber and a tiny young lady scurrying after him in a hoodie (presumably Gomez). Now, we can't see her face, but compounding this strange little scene outside of Bieber's hotel with Saturday's accidental Instagram creates quite a compelling case for the Jelena reunion. Teenage girls (and fans of Selena Gomez making sound decisions) are weeping in every city the world over right now.
Exhibit C: Twitter, you cryptic temptress. While Gomez is pretty good at keeping her tweets to things about her tour and loving her mom, the Biebs loves himself a good two-word tweet that leaves room for imagination. Just over the last few days, he's tweeted "Smiling" and "i see" followed by "all love." He could be talking about eating a great sandwich and "smiling" about it. He could have woken up from a great nap to "see" nothing but "all love" from his Twitter fans. Or, he's getting a little sloppy on Twitter. It may be totally nutty, but we're going with the interpretation that fuels romance rumors. Even if it's the kind of romance rumor that makes us want to curl up in a ball and weep.
He spit in his neighbor's face, Selena! Is this who you want to spend your Norway vacation with? Or perhaps (fingers crossed) all his debaucherous behavior has been a reaction to his grief over losing Gomez, and now that she appears to be back in his life, he'll go back to a time of no marijuana smoking, no neighbor-assaulting, no complaining about lavish birthday parties and laws about underage drinking, and certainly no attempts to fight with paparazzi. Please?

War of Legends
War of Legends Overview
War of Legends is the latest browser based strategy offering by Jagex. The game has the same basic script used by many other strategy games released recently. Players start with a single, empty city and must slowly build it up into a thriving metropolis. Manage resources, research technologies, train soldiers, raid your neighbors, and expand your empire by settling new cities. War of Legends has an Asian theme to it which sets it apart from many Western fantasy styled strategy MMOs like Evony or Lords Online.
Troop Types:
Halberdier - The most basic troop type. They can be trained fast and grouped in large numbers. They have a slight bonus against Charioteers.
Swordsmen - Better armored than Halberdiers, but also more expensive. They are strong against archers.
Archers - Can strike before other unit types. Archers cost a lot of food and wood, they can mow down Halberdiers.
Charioteers - The strongest units in the game. Only a small amount can be led by a Legend and they are slow to train. They are especially effective against Swordsmen.
Resources – Food, Wood, Stone, Copper, Gold
Buildings - Palace, Village, Warehouse, Market, Legend Sanctuary, Legend Pavilion, Garrison, Parade Ground, Ally Base, University, Smithy, Armoury, Stable, Relay Base, Spy Camp, Watchtower, Ramparts
Research Skills – Cultivation, Logging, Mining, Digging, Alchemy, Riding, Construction, Logistics, Conscription, Army Attack, Army Defense, Army Speed, Legend Defense, Magic, Leadership, Skill Sense, Resource Sense, Army Sense.

War of Legends Full Review
By, Erhan Altay
The name company Jagex is almost synonymous with Runescape, their first browser-based MMORPG which is still played by millions of gamers. Most fans may not know that Jagex has been trying to diversify its gaming portfolio over the years. They have published other browser games like Arcanists and Armies of Gielinor on their FunOrb portal, but War of Legends marks their first stand alone release since Runescape. It is also the first game published by Jagex that was not developed in-house.
A New Direction
Players who already have a Jagex account can use it to log into War of Legends, but for new players the registration process is not complicated. The server list actually shows the number of players currently logged on, which is something every online game should do. After choosing a server, players must name their first 'Legend' which is what heroes are called in War of Legends. Currently there are three Legend 'orders': Warrior, Seer, and Monk. Three additional slots are available so perhaps more will be added in future updates.
This Looks Familiar…
Besides being set in China and splashed with a bit of Asian mythology, War of Legends looks remarkably similar to the other strategy games released in late 2009 and early 2010. In fact, the game uses the same exact script as Freesky Online, Evony, Empire Craft, and Lords Online. I guess Jagex figured it might as well jump on the bandwagon while it was hot. Reviewing so many nearly identical games can get frustrating but to be fair to War of Legends, I'll give it a shot. Players start with a single city with a palace located at the center. A short tutorial in the form of dialogue prompts explains the game's basic interface. A series of Novice tasks help newbies establish their city and get it producing resources. There is no free instant-build feature in War of Legends as there is in Evony and Freesky, but the game does give away a few premium items to beginners. Additionally, players start with 100 'vouchers' which can be exchanged for premium items at the shop.
From Novice to Growth
There are four key resources in War of Legends: Wood, Food, Stone, and Copper. The buildings that generate these resources are located in the outskirts of your city. The city center it self contains 28 spots for various buildings which can themselves be upgraded. The task menu should be closely monitored since it shows players what build order to use. Besides constructing buildings, players will be asked to raise taxes on their citizens, improve their citizens' loyalty by using various pacify abilities, and to recruit soldiers. The latter is accomplished at the Garrison. One aspect that sets War of Legends apart from most other strategy games is its simplicity in military units. Rather than dealing with dozens of units, players must only contend with four. Halberdiers, Swordsmen, Archers, and Charioteers are the only unit types available though hundreds of each can be assigned to a Legend at any time.
Tabbed Gaming
After thirty or so minutes, players will complete the line of Novice tasks and will have to move down to the next tab, titled Growth. By that time, players will have a university from which to research technologies, a warehouse to store resources, Legend Sanctuary which serves as the game's hero tavern, and a Legend Pavilion where Legends can be managed. With most of the essential buildings established, the gameplay slows down considerably. Browser games like this are not intended to played with constant vigor, instead players should feel free to open up a another window and go about their work. War of Legends can easily be played by simply tabbing in once in a while to queue up new buildings and issue battle orders. Speaking of queues, players start with a cap of 2 in War of Legends but this can be extended to 5 with the use of a premium item. New players will have the opportunity to purchase this particular item with 50 of the 100 vouchers they start with.
Master and Commander
Combat in War of Legends is mostly automated. Players assign troops they train at the garrison to their Legends and can then send these Legends off to raid certain objects on the world map. Special bonus spots such as hills, flat grounds, mountains, and forests each increase the production of one of the four resource types when they are under the possession of a player. These spots vary in level from 0-10 and are protected by NPC controlled Legends. The strength of the defending force varies depending on its level. New players should pay careful attention to the level of resource spots before attacking them. My initial army of 100 halberdiers was wiped out after I mistakenly assaulted a level 8 hill. Actually navigating the world map is a bit of a hassle, players must click on transparent arrows located at the left, right, top, and bottom of the screen. Why can't we just hold the left mouse button down and drag? One interesting feature that War of Legends offers is the ability to jump into combat and take manual control over your troops. This feature reminded me of Heroes of Gaia, which had a similar function.
Jcreds Required
Truth be told, War of Legends brings nothing new to the strategy genre. If anything, the game's graphics and animations are actually a bit worse than many recent titles. Jagex uses the exact same premium store model implemented in dozens of other strategy games. Players can purchase items to speed up construction times, boost resource generation, and so forth. The premium currency in War of Legends is called Jcredits which cost about 10 cents US each. The items in the cash shop range from 3 jcredits all the way up to 2000. That's right, $200 USD. Because of the Asian theme, War of legends is most similar to Kingory. Evony and Lords Online both have better animations, but War of Legends is still better than King and Conqueror which is another strategy game released at around the same time. Jagex could do better.
Final Verdict: Poor
Jagex disappoints with its first stand alone browser based strategy game. War of Legends is a rehashed version of the same game you have seen a dozen times before. The Asian theme and the slight control given over battles just is not enough to redeem War of Legends.

They are just as functional as they ever were, ie crap.
so I can fix and setup a couple of old laptops with via gfx but I was wondering if they are able to run modern distros. I mean are they functional at all?
I had an old HP p4 3ghz that because of an old unsupported radeon was a nightmare to use, is via the same? if it is I won't even bother
They are just as functional as they ever were, ie crap.
what they won't even handle something like lubuntu? damn
wtf man I hate amd/via whatever
seems like if it's not 100% intel you have to pretty much stick with windows
It would probably work.
I have installed Lubuntu12.10 on a Asrock pv530 via motherboard and got 3d working fine on the via chipset.
The driver was downloaded from
If you still have acess to thoose machines what chipset does they run?
For Ubuntu12.10 vx800-900 works fine, but if you have older like the vx700 you have to run ubuntu9.04:/
Last edited by teroedni; 03-30-2013 at 12:46 PM.
tero is the proprietary driver better than the chrome community one?
But so far everything seems nice and stable on the propietary one
I have 3d screensaver working fine
You cant watch more than one flash video (using Firefox with adobe plug in)at a time with this but its apparently the same in windows so that probly more down to the hardware.(In order cpu at 1.8ghz single core :P)
http://8000.hillbillyhardware.com:80...ock_pv530.html <---windows review of pv530
A pentium 4 should have much more power
Well this is interesting, they've managed to make a gallium driver.
Michael, how about a news blurb?
That 3GHZ machine with the "old unsupported radeon" will be a fast, responsive machine with IceWM even if you have to use VESA, just no 3d stuff, no games, etc. It will handle DVD or smaller video just fine. If you can get a 2d accelerated driver working, expect video playback to 720p, do NOT expect 1080p playback on any single-core except by VDPAU.
A simple IceWM based desktop is exactly the kind of desktop these machines were designed to run. Ubuntu, its derivatives, and probably most other modern distros still have IceWM in their repos. You do have to know how to set it up. You need nm-applet and nautilus, nemo, or pcmanfm in your startup file, so you get a full desktop. You need to edit the menu files to reflect what you actually have installed.
That 3GHZ Pentium 4 was a very fast machine in it's time, Prescott as well as the Athlon 64 were never considered slow. They only seem so now because software has gotten so fat. DE's are among the worst offenders.
Not old Intel, the i8xx state is still broken AFAIK.
As recently as 2008, a Pentium 4 or Athlon Thunderbird/Athlon XP found on a curb or in a dumpster was a real treasure for some of us. For years I did audio editing on Pentium III's and a 500MHZ early Athlon, those were what we got for free from 2002-2008. In 2008 my crew had a whole bunch of PIII's set up in a community center for free internet access. Compared to these, a Pentium 4 was and is damned fast. I've never had a "too slow" complaint from a friend I gave a 1.4GHZ Pentium 4 laptop with Ubuntu Karmic on back in 2009. Yes, it had crappy graphics, no, it doesn't run Compiz or need to.
The only Pentium 4s that are power hogs are the Prescott chips, you'd be amazed how small the heatsink on a circa 2002 Pentium 4 can be compared to the huge towers needed on today's big 4, 6, and 8 cores. Of course, these modern machined to different jobs than P-4's were designed to do, such as HD video editing.

Fantech Roof Caps
Fantech 4" Duct Roof Cap
Bundle Items & SAVE!
How to Select
How to select Roof Caps
A roof cap installed on the roof of a building will help you reduce cooling costs, in addition to providing the house with more fresh air. Besides, such detail can become a decorative addition to the roof itself. Westside Wholesale has prepared this guide to help you pay attention to the most important aspects of a roof cap and select the perfect option for your home.
The first thing to pay attention to when selecting a roof cap is its size and compatibility with the ducting. You need to select the option that has the same diameter that the flexible ducting installed in your system has. Not only that, you need to ensure that a roof cap is possible to install with the ducting of your system.
The next factor to consider is the material from which the roof cap is made. The majority of caps that are on the market today are manufactured from galvanized steel. This is because such material is weather and temperature resistant, and offers simple installation. The design of a roof cap is yet something that plays great role in providing your home with fresh air. It should have a wide exhaust window to let the indoor air leave the house in exchange for fresh air to come in. The size of the cap depends on your system's specifications.
Remember that all roof caps should be equipped with a grille. The purpose of such grille is to protect the duct system and all of its applications from getting damaged by dirt and large particles that may accidentally fall through the cap. If you want to ensure that no garbage from outside will ever enter into your ventilation system, select a roof cap with the tightest grille.
The easy and fast installation of a roof cap is also the factor to consider. You may prefer it to have all of the mounting accessories in the kit rather than needing to purchase them separately. However, if you already have all of the necessary clamps, you may select a less expensive option and save some money, which never harms anyone.
When all of the factors have been considered and you have found the perfect roof cap for your home, some of the questions may still be unanswered. For example, many of the customers wonder if a bird can get inside the cap and into the ventilation system. Since all of such items are designed with safety in mind, they are protected from any loose objects or small animals from getting inside. You have nothing to worry about because every modern roof cap has a rigid grille that protects the system.

UNH roundup: Men's hockey falls at PC
Thursday, February 14, 2013
PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Casey DeSmith stopped 33 shots but go no offensive support as the University of New Hampshire men's hockey team fell 1-0 at Providence on Wednesday night.
The game remained scoreless through two periods despite scoring chances from each side. The Wildcats had a pair of great bids just seconds apart as Kevin Goumas deflected a John Henrion slapshot off the near post with just over five minutes left in the period. Dalton Speelman was on the doorstep on the next shift, but had a bouncing puck jump over his stick to keep the game scoreless.
UNH improved to 7-16 overall and 3-8 in America East play, while UMBC fell to 6-19 on the season and 4-8 in conference.

Not sure exactly where to post this, but figured I would post it here and see what I got :)
Does Nokia/WP7 have an "official" IRC channel? I know when I was with webOS, we had one, and it was one of the BEST ways to get help. As it was instant. I was one of the most frequent posters on the webOS development forums, till I found IRC. I still posted on the forums, but I preferred the instant help that IRC offered :)
If Nokia/WP7 doesn't have a channel yet, I would be more then happy to help start it, as I've been using IRC for a while, and ran a few channels :)
Thanks guys!

07-12-2013, 02:13 PMEditing a commentThe uniform is only required for arrival, departure and the arena shows.....
Beyond that they are in class b's.........So your arguement is invalid
OK. Suppose you're working security on arrival day. You see a group of kids and/or adults walking around in civvies and/or partial Scout uniforms - maybe just their BSA uniform shirts and a mix of jeans, shorts and greenish slacks. They don't have their Jamboree identifiers yet because it's arrival day. Do you stop them and keep them there until their identities check out, or do you let them continue to wander around?
On one of the big arena show days, even though the camp will be closed to the public (i.e. no visitors), same thing. No Jambo identifiers readily seen. Do you stop them or let them continue to wander around? At the 2010 Jambo, we had a subcamp staff member stopped by security on an arena day prior to the arena event until he could produce his Jambo ID – he was in a plain-colored t-shirt and green shorts (not BSA shorts, but a similar color). His Jambo ID was in his pocket because he had been toting something in his arms and he forgot to put it back on.
A few years back, we had a group of local kids wanting to trash the place and/or cause trouble with some actual participants at our local summer camp on arrival day. Fortunately they were stopped by one of the assistant camp rangers before they got down to main camp. (They didn't know just how far back the main road they had to go to get to the summer camp area.) A Jambo can be a potentially larger target and garner a national audience for groups with an agenda if they want to cause a ruckus. That's one reason why it's important for all participants to be wearing the uniform for easier recognition, at least on the days requested.
07-13-2013, 05:24 AMEditing a commentCan you describe the ruckus, sir ?
Hey GS......Found my scouts name on your list.....
That has got to be the dumbest thing I have ever seen......He is scheduled for one thing plus his rafting.......
I was expecting more of a schedule.
They probably won't send your son home. He will look out of place. You are right, the uniform is not required to be a member of the BSA, but it IS required to go to a Jamboree.
07-12-2013, 02:15 PMEditing a commentSo exactly how is he going to look out of place with olive shorts that look like BSA shorts, his synthetic shirt that looks like the BSA version and white socks??????
My daughter's crew was told to wear non-denim cargo type shorts in the various colors of the uniform, or close to them, and tee shirts that cover the shoulder. Of course they would love for them to be in Scout shorts/slacks and Scout tee shirts if possible.
That's Venturing crews. They're not under the same uniforming conventions as Boy Scout troops. Crews are allowed to choose their own uniforms (for the most part) for their regular meetings/activities and are encouraged to wear the suggested Venturing uniform (Green shirt and grey pants/shorts) for larger meet-ups (council-rees, Jambo, etc.). My troop's CO has investigated sponsoring a Venturing Crew, and I've spoken with several Venturing leaders since Venturing was introduced.
Originally posted by skeptic View PostWhen I went to the 1960 Jamboree, the info we got for our council, Arrowhead Area in San Bernardino County, was $400 plus approximately $50 for uniforming, plus personal spending money and gear beyond what might have. My parents told me; "We will buy the uniforms". Somehow I was able to go; and they did only buy the uniforms, plus take me to the pre jamboree camp at George AFB and to and from the train in San Berdo. What is that in today's money? Who cares. It was one of the highlights of my youth, period.
In 1960, a complete basic uniform cost a total of $12.30 (including optional gaiters). That's ~95 2012 dollars, which is just about what you'd spend on a new uniform today. If your parents spent a whole $50, then you should have got 5 uniforms.
You might have got 4 uniforms and a pair of official buster browns, or 4 uniforms and some combination of the fancy leather belt instead of the web one, or the nice metal neckerchief slide instead of the 15-cent braided one, or a couple pairs of the nice hiking socks. If you didn't get 4 or 5 uniforms, call your parents and tell them the jig is up and you want $100 for every uniform you didn't get in 1960, haha
(1960 uniform prices: http://boyslife.org/wayback/#issue=w5LFTj36kJ8C&pg=72 inflation calculator: http://www.westegg.com/inflation/)
I can't imagine anyone spending $500 on uniforms for jamboree, but a middle class family had a lot more disposable income in 1960 than it has today; even the lawyers and doctors that populate our troop balked at the 2010 pronouncement of complete uniforms all week in 2010.Last edited by Scouter99; 07-14-2013, 10:23 PM.
I think uniforming included required gear too, such as the duffle bag, and yes, a few Jambo only items such as extra patches, neckerchiefs, and such. Do not have any idea how much they may have spent, but I think I had three complete uniforms, but just my regular shoes with one extra pair perhaps. That was Colorado Springs on a ranch, and we certainly did a lot of walking. Showers were fun too. Still remember we discovered the best time to shower was about 2PM to 3PM when the sun was just right. Was a bit of a shock to be in view of passersby; the showers were enclosures with canvas sides, open at the bottom about 2 feet and going up to maybe a bit over 5 feet. So showering was generally done in swimming trunks or shorts because people could see under and over.
Something that came out after the event that was probably more shocking then than now was that they arrested close to 500 prostitutes during the time it was on, and sent a number of scouts and more leaders home due to their choosing to meet said ladies. Kind of like camp followers I guess.
I only had two uniforms at Jambo 2010, One to wear, one to wash and lay out to dry. It was hot and the uniform dried out quickly. As a matter of fact at times it got so hot, I washed my uniform and put it back on wet, it felt great!
As far as showers go, 2AM to 3AM was optimal, NO LINES and no one else to peek where they weren't supposed to. Water was always nice and hot too.
Well feedback from scout son on the jambo to this point......The opening show was ok, but it really was horrible sitting in the sun for 3 hours at it.... The lines for activities are HUGE everywhere he went......There is no shade.... He hasn't decided if he is having fun yet or not.
He should get a Brockabrella. These were huge back in the day. Don't know if they were marketed outside St. Louis, but everyone had one.

Brewmeister commented07-18-2013, 10:39 AMEditing a commentOh good grief. How big of an egomaniac do you have to be to allow anyone to make a statue of you?
Back in the day, no one would dare erect a statue like this at a Scout camp. They wouldn't make it 24 hours before a couple creative Scouts would fit them with a pair of jockey shorts with half-can of Alpo in the back side.
Wonder what the going rate is for scrap bronze?
I was hoping that the Summit would be cooler than AP Hill was.
Sorry JR. I should have warned you all that when the dog-days hit, there's no escaping the heat. The ridge-tops here just don't get that high (not that you want to be on a ridge-top in the afternoon with the kind of static that's in this air). Some of our prominent features are catching a lot of lightning strikes!
scout son txted that he waited over two hours today for the short zip lines and he isn't going to be able to do the big one....... hmmmmm....
Explain to me again why the scouts need to sit in the Arena for 1.5 hours before the show starts??????
07-20-2013, 02:24 PMEditing a commentIn the case of your regular concert at the auditorium it is to sell you more $10 beers and snacks. Hopefully that's not the case at Jambo.
Maybe it is the same reason they make us wait in formation at camp for 10 minutes for the staff to mosey on down the road. Something about building character. If they all sat there peaceably for 1.5 hours they must have a lot of character.
All I know is I hope the negativity you're continuously expressing about this Jamboree isn't being passed on to your son if/when he has spoken to you. You've griped about the uniforms, about the schedule, about the activities, about the arena show... Let the kid have a great time!
If there's one thing I've learned in Scouting, it's the fact that adults tend to gripe about things, while the scouts manage to find a way to have a great time with what they have. That's what Jamborees are all about when all is said and done. Everyone is thrown into the crazy experiment together, and it's the participants' jobs to make it a great time for all involved. I've seen it firsthand at both Jamborees I attended. It's magical, and it's how these things go.

Thresher remembered 50 years later, families and officials honor sub's crew
Sunday, April 7, 2013
PORTSMOUTH -- When Norman Gilbert Lanouette began working on submarines in the 1950s with the United States Navy, it was a switch from his role as a Navy Seal, one that he thought would mean safer work.
Vice Admiral Michael Connor, keynote speaker for the event, said that although the Thresher tragedy was the inspiration behind SUBSAFE, a rigorous safety program, "this ship helped change the world."
"Let's remember what those times were like," Connor said, recalling the Cuban Missile Crisis, a "race in space," and "a race going on beneath the ocean." Removing the threat of the Soviet Union prompted the creation of "swift and silent" submarines, he said.
"The Thresher was the forefront of that," Connor said.
"She and ships like her and the descendants of her ... made the Soviet Union realize they would never prevail ... It broke them," he said. "The world became a better, safer place."
SUBSAFE was mentioned numerous times throughout the ceremony including comments from some of the state's dignitaries invited to the service.
Sen. Kelly Ayotte (NH-R) noted not only the significance of SUBSAFE during her remarks, but also the sacrifice made by families in attendance which contributed greatly to keeping the U.S. safe.
"Thresher was an enormous tragedy for the nation, the Navy and for New Hampshire," he said.
Following his words, Hassan read a letter from his wife, Gov. Maggie Hassan, who was unable to attend the ceremony.
"I will do my best to honor them by making New Hampshire a place worthy of their sacrifice," he read.
In her remarks, Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (NH-D) said she knows the Thresher delegation will continue its efforts to have a memorial for the 129 crew members included at Arlington Cemetery in Virginia.
US Submarine Veterans National Junior Vice Chairman, Al Singleman, referenced a quote from President John F. Kennedy calling the men who will remain on eternal patrol with the Thresher "brave pioneers."
"America calls on its men and its women to stand up and serve," Congresswoman Carol Shea-Porter (NH-D) said, calling the world a dangerous time when the Thresher was deployed.
"These are the men at the forefront," she said.
Saturday's service was invitation-only. During the ceremony, the daughter of Lt. Comm. John Hilary Billings, Vicki Billings, shared memories from she and her siblings about their father.
She was 12 years old when the ship sank and the oldest of five children of Billings and his wife, Delores. Delores turned 83 this past Thursday."My father was Navy through and through," Billings said, calling her own family story unique, but one that resonated, she suspected, with so many others in the room.Her youngest brother, Blake Billings, has no memories of their father, she said. Following her remarks, he sang a song he composed in honor of their father called "In Memory of You."
"Everything I've done, everything I've tried to do, has held inside a memory of you," he sang from behind a piano.
With her mother sitting in the audience, Billings recognized the dedication to family that she showed.
"Our moms are the ones who held our lives together," she said, calling them all heros, just as the 129 men aboard the Thresher had been.
It was the widows, Billings said, "who overcame the worst disaster to befall those who serve this country.
Like Billings mother, Harrison told Foster's following the ceremony that losing her husband was devastating. She had been five months pregnant at the time and within 24 hours, suffered a miscarriage and lost their baby as well.
Ray Davis, Secretary of the Navy, described the tragedy in a letter read at the ceremony as leaving an "indelible mark" on the Navy. Rear Admiral and Commander of the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, L. Bryant Fuller III, said the Thresher will always be a part of the shipyard.

Broccoli and Scallops
Please welcome Wiffy of Noob Cook to Rasa Malaysia today. She is sharing with us a Chinese New Year recipe called 花开富贵, or stir-fried broccoli and scallops, which means richness and abundance. Noob Cook is a great Singaporean food blog with many delicious home-cooked recipes, I have to say that Wiffy is certainly no noob in the kitchen as she constantly whips up droolworthy, delicious, and homey dishes. Hop over to Noob Cook and check it out yourself. This broccoli and scallop dish pairs perfectly well with other Chinese New Year recipes that I have recently posted.
Broccoli and Scallop is one of my favourite dishes to order when I eat out at our local zi-char stalls or Chinese restaurants. However, it's usually not cheap presumably because of the fresh scallops. That's why I like to make this at home. Being a noob cook, I am unabashed about my non-purist way of cooking, and hence I would like to share my short-cut way of remaking this dish at home. The method is super easy – simply blanching the vegetables in boiling water for just a few minutes, and then creating a fast and simple cheater's sauce using instant vegetable stock and corn starch solution to drizzle over the vegetables & seafood. While this dish is small in effort, it is big in taste and also easy on the wallet.
With Chinese New Year coming around the corner, this is an auspicious and colourful dish to serve to your family. The broccoli florets and carrots sliced to flower shapes symbolise richness and abundance (花开富贵).

Yummy! Broccoli and scallops are two of my favorite foods. The colors in this dish look great too!
Thanks! One of the reasons I love this dish is due to the cheery colours too :)
You are right, this dish is super expensive if you order at restaurants, because of the scallops! I love this dish too, the scallops are always so QQ and sweet. I also love scallops with celery, drool.
That's why I always buy the freshest scallops if I make this at home, since it is still much cheaper than ordering at restaurants :) Adding celery sounds like a great idea, it gives a crunch to the dish :)
Thank you Bee for featuring my simple recipe. Been a fan of your site for years and seeing my recipe here makes me extra happy. I hope you can find these pacific clams in the US, it's one of my fave, I think I like it as much if not more than those canned abalone hehe
Hi Bee and Wiffy
Thanks for sharing such a beautiful recipe. Your scallops looks so plump and juicy – they are one of my absolute favourite seafoods! Happy Chinese New Year to you both!
Thanks dear! Happy Chinese New Year to you too! ^_^
I love all the mouth-watering "treasure" used in this auspicious dish! Simply awesome! It reminds me of my upcoming CNY reunion dinner. I'm so excited now!!! ;)
Can't wait to hear about your reunion dinner. I'm excited about mine as well =)
So proud of you Wiffy! :D You did an awesome job with these dish and the photos!
Thanks Ju for your kind words =)
This dish not only looks good but good for us too.
Not a vege and seafood fan but this is something I would love…my two faves – broccoli and scallops! How have you been?
This looks so fresh and delicious! I'm going to share it with Mom – she would love this – all of her favorites.
I hope your mum likes this dish Reeni ^_^
when u mention "blanch the scallop", do I have to let the water boiling before scooping out the scallop. thks
Its looks amazing!
Pingback:Spaghetti with Shrimp, Broccolini and Basil | TasteFood
thanks for your recipe, i would love to try in this CNY. but, how about the vegetable cube. what is the brand you use ?? any specific flavor?
Stumble onto your broccoli with scallop recipe after I have cooked one today from left over scallops (not open) since CNY 2011. Although my family like the broccoli & scallop that i cooked, I find the scallops is not so white as those in the restaurant and yours. I have use 1 packet during EVE CNY 2011 for steamboat and found that the scallops were not so white as well. I noticed that you mention that you get the scallops from NTUC (Hmm, must try to get some to try out). But you mentioned that you are based in USA, I presumed must have moved to spore. Thank you letting us know where to get good fresh scallops.

Murder suspect to be arraigned in Dover court today: Body of UNH student Lizzi Marriott yet to be found
Monday, October 15, 2012
DOVER — As investigators continue to search for the body of a 19-year-old University of New Hampshire student, a local man will be arraigned this morning on a second-degree murder charge in relation to her death.
During Saturday's press conference, Vara did announce Marriott's vehicle, a 2001 tan colored Mazda Tribute, had been located at a UNH parking lot. He said investigators were still combing the vehicle for additional clues.
Although Vara announced Marriott and Mazzaglia knew other, he didn't elaborate in terms of Mazzaglia's address or place of employment.
Mazzaglia appears to have been the operator of a website located at www.sjmazzaglia.com. The page provides career history for a man named Seth J. Mazzaglia living at 1 Mill St. in Dover. On Saturday, Vara also declined to address whether police presence at an apartment on 1 Mill St. in Dover was linked to Marriott's disappearance.
Marriott, a 2011 graduate of Westborough High School in Massachusetts, was studying marine biology at UNH, according to her uncle. She attended Manchester Community College her freshman year before transferring to UNH this year. She was living with her aunt and uncle this year and commuting to UNH to save money.
State police, FBI agents, and police from UNH, Dover, and Chester have been participating in the search, as well as authorities from Marriott's hometown of Westborough, Mass.
Young said it wasn't immediately clear whether Mazzaglia, who graduated from UNH in 2006, had an attorney. She expected one to be appointed to him during Monday's hearing.
Democrat staff writer Jim Haddadin and the Associated Press contributed to this report.

It's the supreme icon of the house of Dior, an everyday companion imbued with a chic and timeless allure. The Lady Dior carries inside it the story of a magical meeting with a princess who gave it its name and changed the course of its life.
Since birth, it's known it was different. Down to its very skin, marked with a cannage motif inspired by chairs in the Napoleon III style, it sensed that life held in store for it a different destiny, one that would be both glorious and royal. And with reason, for it can boast so much: the glow of its precious skin, the light from its gilded eponymous charms spelling "D.I.O.R.", its sophisticated allure and feminine lines. Since birth it was certain of one thing: it was a bag that would go down in history. It was right in believing in its royal destiny. But even in its wildest dreams it could never have imagined anything better than meeting the most elegant of princesses.
It could never have dreamt a better ambassadress than Diana, Princess of Wales (forever lovingly known in continental Europe as Lady Diana). It was she who decided to carry it on her arm when it was still an unknown, she who introduced it to the world, she who gave it its name.
Today, the Lady Dior is proud to have had faith in its lucky star; ever since it was born it's always known that one day it would become a bag of legend.
