We play what's appropriate for what's happening during the party, so we keep it mellow during dinner time. Hopefully you get a chance to explore our web site and browse our song list. In addition to the songs you see there, we will learn up to three songs for your party. Our band manager, Phaedra will handle all of the pre-party planning with you and during the party and would be the person that acts as emcee and coordinates with your other vendors. That way, you can relax and enjoy the fun with your family and friends and not worry about the little details.

Spencer Tunick, May 2013Vault // Wednesday, June 19, 2013
This past May, we were very excited to print an exclusive interview with famed photographer and public artist, Spencer Tunick. As you probably know, Tunick is the photographer with the knack of getting a large group of people to strip naked, go somewhere very public, and be photographed as a collective and spirit of bare emotion. His works are powerful, unifying, provocative, and at times, just really damn fun and full of life. We loved the piece, and wanted to share it with our online readers.

Looks nice, good luck with sales!
Awesome work Elliot!!
Thanks man!
Welcome to Forest! GLWS
Hey, Thanks!
Looks great, good luck with this one
Thanks a lot!
Good minimalist design
Great work man!
Thanks mate!
Hey! i really like the theme – but i need a slider at the single portfolio site (preferably with zoom-on-klick lightbox). Is that easy to handle – if yes: how i have to do this? Thx!
Thanks! There are no sliders or lightboxes built into the portfolio unfortunately. They could be integrated fairly easily by a developer however. The options that would be needed to do so are built in. It would be very easy to change the single portfolio items to allow the possibility of uploading multiple images.
Hope this helps, Elliot
Nice one mate
Hey thanks man!
Super work Elliot!
Thanks Mike!
Great work, Elliot. Really diggin' the simple and professional look of this theme.
Thanks a lot mate!
Quick question: can hexagons be changed to rectangles and reordered to be 4 in each row?
You would need to create the rectangle shape in Photoshop or a similar program then simply replace the hexagon image with that one. The layout can be rearranged with fairly basic changes to the CSS file.
Hope this helps,
How am I supposed to make the blog it's own page? Also how is everyone getting the hexagons for their pictures?
Firstly, thank you very much for purchasing me theme.
In the documentation under "Basic Settings" you will see "Static Pages". Follow that guide and you'll have your blog page setup in no time.
When you upload a featured image to a portfolio item it will automatically get the hexagon shape, you don't have to do anything.
Thanks again,
Thank you!
No problem
Hi Elliot! I have another question, how am I supposed to get the TEAM as it's own separate page?
From the documentation: "To start you need to create the page. In the sidebar click on "Pages" then "Add New". Enter a title for the home page then on the right hand side you will see "Template" under "Page Attributes". Select "Team" from the drop down menu then publish."
That page will display all team members you have created.
Thank you again Elliot! Your theme is making my website turn out great!
My pleasure Mark! Please remember to rate it 5 stars if you are happy with it
Hi Elliot! Great job with this theme! I wanted to ask you something… would it be possible to change the hexagons for diamonds? please contact me @ firstname.lastname@example.com
I would apyif it's possible!
Thanks a lot!
Hi Marc,
You can have any shape you want. Just draw it at the correct dimensions in Photoshop (or similar software) then replace the `mask.png` file in the theme folder with the one you just created.
Hope that helps,
Hi Elliott – my website was looking wonderful until I installed a new plugin (which is great too). It's Easy Media Pro. I installed it to create simple galleries on the pages.
However, it's thrown the alignment of the hexagons out on the home page. What do I need to get the page back into alignment again?
Can anyone else help as I know Elliott is super busy
Love this theme, can the shape be changed to a circle on the portfolio page? Assuming its just css or is it an image overlay?
Yes it can! You can either replace the image overlay to a circle one with the same dimensions or if you know your way around CSS you can remove the current overlay and do it with `border-radius`.

Transformation Of Apothecary Hall Into Luxury Apartments In Downtown Almost Completed
Photographs By John Murray
Developer Parag Mehta, middle, gave a tour of Apothecary Hall today to Waterbury mayor, Neil O'Leary, right, and former governor, John Rowland. Mehta owns the building and has spent the past two years transforming old office space into 12 luxury apartments. The Apothecary Buildng is the focal point of Exchange Place in the center of Waterbury at the intersection of South Main and Bank Streets and was built in 1893, and housed the Apothecaries Hall Pharmacy for over 70 years.
The view from the top of Apothecary Hall commands a stunning view of downtown Waterbury. The project is expected to be completed within the next two months.
North facing windows provide a spectacular view of Exchange Place and the Green in downtown Waterbury. Mehta explained the details of the project to Mayor Neil O'Leary, as John Rowland formulated a question about the timetable for completion.

Bringing back the old STF's
View Single Post
Join Date: Jun 2012
Posts: 46

I have heard how there was a story to the old stfs. I would very much like to play through the story the old ones provided, since I did not get a chance to play them back in my original 65 days at launch. The new ones should stay, since most players can go through these without rage-quitting the game because they did not bring the right skill for one of the encounters.
There are several possibilities if you still want to re-introduce but allow all players a good chance to complete:
1. Turn this into a story mission set:
This way the story is preserved, but the difficulty factor is relatively low, allowing for this chapter of the story to be told. It would be easy to place them to, since the Borg missions already have a section of their own.
2. Create three different difficulty tiers:
The tiers I would think are today's Normal and Elite difficulties, just the length would be longer and akin to Hive Onslaught sort of. Then we have the Classic difficulty, for those wanting the same experience as before. This way those new to STO can experience the story and still have a challenge, without beating their heads against a "you need to do this in a specific way" type of stf. And those who really loved the old way, or want to experience a hardcore challenge, the classic would be waiting for them.
So they might display (going to use Cure as an example) as "Traditional Cure - Normal | Traditional Cure - Elite | Traditional Cure - Classic" in the PvE events listing.

Fractal Design Define XL R2 Black Pearl Full-Tower Chassis Review
In the same conversation I sat down for with Josh Smith from Fractal Design at CES during our meeting there, I was told that by the time I arrived back to my house, this chassis should be waiting there for me. As I was finally able to play catch up with some of their cases last year, one chassis I missed sadly was to have a look at the Define XL. From what I have seen in their other products, I can only imagine this chassis was a beast just like all the rest I have had a chance to look at. Even not having actually seen the chassis, I did venture back in time a bit and read a few other reviews of the original Define XL, just to brush up on its offerings and do a little bit of a compare and contrast.
When someone says they are doing a chassis revision, a lot of time I have to turn those samples down, because adding a fan or two, or painting it another color, does not warrant a full review. Here that isn't the case at all, excuse my pun. Fractal took the original chassis, but did not do much to the outside of the chassis, as to keep the sleek looks that made the original such a success. This new revision made five major changes to the interior that I could come up with in just a couple of moments looking through the specs list. In my opinion, making a whole new chassis, and well worth its own series name, but since it is in the same clothing, Define XL it is.
Some of the changes to look for in the newly released Define XL R2 from Fractal Design are things like the fan controller, the hard drive bay configuration, the lack of the second floor, the lack of the odd fan duct at the top, more expansion slots, and another form factor of motherboard to add to the compatibility list. As you can see, just in what I listed there, there have been a lot of changes to this revision, and well worth the time and effort to go over this new chassis with a fine toothed comb.
Join me as I take a walk around the Define XL R2 and see just what Fractal had up their sleeves when designing this revised chassis.

10 Megawatts of electricity per year is less than leaving a hair dryer on for a year.
Does anyone think the companies selling mining hardware are mindful of late night TV real estate "no money down tycoons" selling cassette tapes (rather than using their secret knowledge to flip houses).
Maybe because it is a race to the bottom since the algorithm has an exponential component.
Hi "Electricity much?"!
10MW is much more. What you're pointing at is MWh (megawattHOUR).
A hairdryer's effect is 2kW (2000W), meaning that it consumes 2kWh every hour - and that's what you're billed for. As a year has 8760hrs, during one year of continuous operation your hairdryer would consume 8760*2kWh = 17340kWh, or 17.34MWh .
The effect of the mentioned data center is 10MW, thus consuming 10MWh every hour. So this facility needs less than 2 hours to consume more electricity than your hairdryer would during one year of continuous operation. The annual consumption of this facility is thus 87GWh.
To put it in comparison, 87GWh is more than the whole country of Western Sahara, or 17 000 average Swedish houses...
Mining doesn't have to be so power hungry. That's what happens if you choose a proof-of-work scheme
that's computationally intensive. A scheme that minimizes computation and maximizes random access to
GBs of memory, like Cuckoo Cycle, will require large investments in RAM but relatively little power.

Happy I debated a long time before buying, (my Husband didn't think it was necessary) but I am so glad I did. It is the answer to my problem of where to put my books & coffee cup. I love it & it looks nice too. October 15, 2011
Perfect for Sectionals! We love this little table for the center of our l-shaped sectional. Now we can put down a drink where there as no way to before. December 5, 2011
I am so pleased! This table is exactly what I needed! It was very easy to assemble and is solid/sturdy. The design is great with my other wrought iron decor and I would highly suggest it and this company! January 18, 2012
It looks good I am happy with the table and it is exactly what I wanted. Assembly should have been very easy, the instructions were clear but some of the screw holes did not line up perfectly and as the frame is metal is was hard to get them in and took considerable force. February 21, 2012

Publisher:Random House
Henry Green led a double life. As Henry Yorke, a descendant of the earl of Hardwicke and Baron Leconfield, he was a wealthy aristocrat, with a family fortune and an engineering plant in the British Midlands. As Henry Green (the pseudonym he settled on after trying out Henry Browne), he wrote nine of our century's most original novels, including Living, Party Going, Caught, and Loving all of which, with daringly experimental techniques, capture the psychological truths of ordinary life in dramatic, sometimes poignant, and often hilarious ways. Green also formed friendships and rivalries with many of his time's leading literary figures, including Evelyn Waugh and Anthony Powell, Eudora Welty and Terry Southern. And he led an extravagantly messy personal life.
Jeremy Treglown, the highly praised biographer of Roald Dahl, discusses Green's novels in close connection with his life his unusual camaraderie with factory workers, his sympathy for servants, his ambivalence about his peers, his drinking, and his extramarital affairs. Treglown also shows how Green's portrayal of everyday uncertainties mirrored his efforts to understand his weaknesses and the chaotic conduct of his life efforts whose literary results, John Updike has said, bring the rectangle of the printed page alive like little else in English fiction of this century.

The recent deluge of cloud IPOs has been great news for venture investors. And there are signs that cloud startups will continue to make it rain for investors in the coming year
SDL has been selected by UK-based Box, a provider of online storage and collaboration software, as its preferred partner to expand into new international markets. Box is backed by venture capital firms Andreessen Horowitz, Bessemer Venture Partners, Draper Fisher Jurvetson, Emergence Capital Partners, General Atlantic, Meritech Capital Partners, NEA, Scale Venture Partners and U.S. Venture Partners and strategic investors salesforce.com and SAP.
Box has hired four senior sales professionals to its team. Jim Priestley joins as senior vice president of sales; Stephen Morse joins as vice president of global sales engineering; Ryan Martin as vice president of platform sales; and Scott Hebert as vice president of vertical industry sales. Headquartered in Los Altos, CA, Box is a privately held company and is backed by venture capital firms Andreessen Horowitz, Bessemer Venture Partners, Draper Fisher Jurvetson, Emergence Capital Partners, General Atlantic, Meritech Capital Partners, NEA, Scale Venture Partners, U.S. Venture Partners and strategic investors salesforce.com and SAP.
Replicon Inc., which provides cloud-based timesheet software to track employee time and expenses, announced it has raised US$20 million in Series A funding led by U.S. venture capital firms Emergence Capital Partners and The Social+Capital Partnership. The company, which has offices in Calgary, Alberta, and San Mateo, Calif., was founded in 1996. Replicon will use the new funds to support growth, with a focus on continued development of its direct sales channel, and extending its reach into Europe and APAC.
GoodData and Box have launched the GoodBox Bash™, a cloud-based app that allows Box customers to process data about the effectiveness of highly-collaborative teams.
WellTok, Inc. said it closed an $18.7 million Series B funding with Emergence Capital Partners and InterWest Partners co-leading the round and New Enterprise Associates joining the funding. The company also appointed Executive Chairman Jeff Margolis to chief executive officer. Margolis founded TriZetto.
Quasar Ventures said it has begun operations with $5.4 million in investment capital from a group of investors led by Emergence Capital Partners. The firm will follow a strategy that varies dramatically from an incubator. It plans to use its capital to develop 10 new technology companies globally in the coming four years. The firm is led by former Officenet executives Andy Freire, Santiago Bilinkis and Pablo Simón Casarino.

Wagonfeld previously was executive director of Harvard Business School's California Research Center in Menlo Park and before that co-founded QuickenLoans at Intuit.
Venture capital returns creep ahead in fits and starts. Distributions to LPs, however, have gone through the roof. In the third quarter of 2012, they hit their highest level since 2001, and they look poised to go higher in the fourth quarter and beyond.

Comment: Mr. Medved is the same as the pundits in the mold of Krauthammer and Rove. Under their direction of "fixing what is wrong" with Obamacare what do you get at the end of the day? BIGGER GOVERNMENT. And that is what these guys want. They just think they could run better the monstrosity that is bleeding us to death and talking away or freedom and whatever prosperity we may have left. Cruz, Lee and others scare them because they actually mean it when they say they want smaller government rather than just giving lip service to it.5 Recommendations
Comment: This case just adds to a long list of instances where Mr. Obama has either ignored or failed to enforce the laws of the land. He has been in direct violation of his oath of office dozens of times which requires him to "faithfully execute the office of President" and to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States".
His failures to do either of these, in his case diliberately, creates an extremely long list of violations that should have the Republicans in the House and Senate bringing him up on charges and forcing him to choose to enforce the laws, as his position requires according to the Constitution, of face impeacment or resignation.
But once again we have a lawless President and Republicans without even the faintest resemblance of a spine. If they don't, in the least, cut off all funding to the NLRB and the Department of Labor as of March in response to this failure to follow the law, then we should throw all of the bums out in 2014. This is a federal republic not a manarchy or dictatorship. If the current crop of Republicans won't defend that then we either need a new group of Republicans or a new party.
Comment: I'm laying 5 to 1 on the partisanship from Obama. He knows nothing else. And he can't fundamentally transform America if he starts solving current problems.4 Recommendations
Comment: In the real world we take a targeted meat axe to a situation like this budget. The overall goal should be a 15%-20% reduction in the FY 2014 budget compared to the FY 2013 budget. That means large cuts in every area. But that doesn't necessarily mean equal cuts to every area. To get off on the right foot we could start with a 10% reduction to defense. To say that we can't find 10% fat in defense is laughable. I had a friend whose son was in the Air Force. He said that the Air Foprce paved the same roan that ran through the base where he was stationaed every year. Not because the road needed it but because the Air Force had to spend all of their appropriation for that year or see a reduction in the following year's appropriation. The EPA could easily withstand a 50% cut. That goes for the FHA, Dept. of Labor, Dept. of Education, Congress, the Executive Branch and many other areas of the budget. If we just took food stamps back to a program to provide basic foods to the really poor, not a card that could be sold on the black market to be used a strip joints and casinos, we could save probably $25 billion a year.
It just takes the will to say that many of these things aren't the prerogative of the Federal government as envisioned in the Constitution and start paring them back. Many of them could probably be elinimated in five years or less. That is a real world approach to the problem.
What we need to do most is replace Washington Fantasyland and its current group of supporters and promoters, with RealWorldLand and the people who know how to run it. And we need to start with the 2014 elections. Not only most Democrats need to be ousted but also probably half of the Republicans currently in office.
Finally, as part of the Washington budget remake, we need to tackle the bureaucracy. What I have found in dealing with government at the state level is that elections only affect about the top two layers of the bureaucracy. I believe this is true at the federal level also. The true bureaucrats who are lifers are always still there. And it is their political bent that ultimately shapes policy over the years. Their goal is almost always self preservation. And self preservation only happens if government keeps growing. Representatives' and Senators' aides just go from one to another so the lobbyists always have the same people to work with and over time those people have been corrupted.
If you want to really change Washington to RealWorldLand, then you need to have leaders who will find a way to take a meat axe to the bureaucrats and make sure that they are replaced with people who are on the same mission. Not entranched lifers who will find a way to ride out the "storm" and keep the government growing.
Big problems require big solutions. In this case anything short of a meat axe or chainsaw just won't work.
Comment: I heard newt Gingrich last night with an additional interesting approach. The government is currently operating on Continuing Resolutions (CR's) which basically continue the government's spending at current levels. This is because the Senate refuses to pass a budget. The current CR expires either the end of February or the end of March. Gingrich suggested that the Republicans carry on the fight to reduce spending with the CR's.
The suggestion was for the House, since it controls the Purse, to only pass 30 day CR's and within each 30-day CR the House would start eliminating stupid agencies and Departments (those that if the public saw them would scream for their elimination). At the same time, with each CR the House could start putting the brakes on rates of growth in the other parts of the budget starting with discretionary non-entitlement spending and defense.
Continuing this month after month would put the Democrats and the President in the position of having to defend continuing the stupid departments and the large increases in spending in departments like the EPA, which saw in excess of 100% increases in their budgets during Obama's first year in office as part of the stimulus, as the reason they were going to shut down the government each month. That is a plan to out maneuver Obama who likes to play these endless campaign games while at the same time achieving significant spending reductions.
Success in this area would also position the Conservatives well for the 2014 midterm elections after which, having made significant gains in the House and Senate, they could begin to tackle entitlements including Obamacare (since the pain of that starts to set in in 2014) during Obama's lame duck years. This would also make all of the Democrat contenders for the nomination for president, show their stripes early on their continued big spending/big debt proposals.
I think this is an interesting approach and would allow the Republicans to push back a bit on the debt ceiling, say a $500 billion dollar increase to start, without taking a hit in the polls and then allow them to begin attacking the spending an debt problem on the CR side. Don't take the milk out of little Jimmy's head start meals, but kill off the commission for the study of guppies and others like it and start slashing budgets in the EPA and other derartments that are inhibiting growth and job creation.

Great product just don't like the scope I love the gun so far but I don't like the scope that much.the iron sight are perfect All in all a quality gun January 3, 2015
nice gun this gun has excellent sight and is accurate when plinking and target shooting. it is good for hunting rabbits,chipmunks, any sort of pests and squirrels. December 31, 2014
Not a Quality Pellet Rifle Gun was good and decently accurate for about a month. I went to shoot one day and the pellets were flying everywhere. I noticed that i could see the entire front sight in the scope. The barrel was bent so badly that looking down the back, you can see only a sliver of the other end. Before it bent, it was good for squirrels but nothing bigger. October 7, 2014
This product is no good ! The scope is no good. The power after each shot is unpredictable . It can not remove a raccoon in one shot . Do not recommend purchase September 30, 2014

I used rthis attorney oncee and he did not finished the job and do what was agreed. He said he would allow 3-4 hours free and the next time I need him. When I called and asked to use them, he went off on me and said I didn.t pay him last time and would not honor the free time. I had a case with a settlement and he took his money off the top, he paid himself on the first case. He is just another attorney that thinks he is above accountability, or it is just a small man complex which one I don't know

AP INVESTIGATION: Border police being busted more
As Calderon sent thousands of soldiers to northern Mexico to stop the gruesome cartel violence and clean out corrupt police departments, CBP, the largest U.S. law enforcement agency, boosted its border forces by 44 percent or 6,907 additional officers and agents on the southwest border.
At the same time, CBP saw the number of its officers charged with corruption-related crimes nearly triple, from eight cases in fiscal 2007 to 21 the following year – and began to crack down.
"Day in, day out, someone in our agency is approached and says no, but we operate in this high-threat environment," said James Tomsheck, assistant commissioner for internal affairs at CBP. "The reality of it is we are deeply concerned."
In the past 10 months, 20 agents from CBP alone have been charged with a corruption-related crime. At that pace, the organization will set a new record for in-house corruption; 90 employees have been charged with corrupt acts since October 2004. Agency officials expect those cases to continue to climb: There are 63 open criminal investigations – including corruption cases – against CBP employees.
At least as unsettling were the prospective agents who never got to commit their crimes: Four applicants for jobs in federal border law enforcement were not hired when polygraph tests and background checks confirmed they were infiltrators from drug trafficking operations, authorities said.
Such in-depth checks are conducted on only about 10 percent of applicants for border agent jobs, though such scrutiny will eventually be made standard for all applicants, according to Tomsheck. Meantime, officials are left to wonder: Are other gangsters working undercover for agencies charged with protecting the U.S. border?
CBP had more than 2,000 in-house discipline cases during the past three years, according to records obtained by the AP under the Freedom of Information Act. Most were minor, but about 100 reflected more serious, corruption-related incidents, many of which were later prosecuted.
The jump in corruption cases comes as CBP has increased its team of internal investigators from five three years ago to 220 today.
CBP's own investigation of corruption cases showed little correlation between minor disciplinary problems and the more serious instances of bribery and malfeasance.
"Virtually none of the employees arrested for corruption are employees that have serious misconduct issues," Tomsheck said. "Actively corrupt employees do everything they can to stay below the radar screen."
It can be heartbreaking to see agents switch sides for small amounts of money, said U.S. Attorney Tim Johnson, whose turf covers a long stretch of border from the Gulf of Mexico to Laredo, Texas. But, Johnson and other federal prosecutors say, "these cases will always have a priority" and must be prosecuted "to the fullest extent," to emphasize that corruption will not be tolerated.
"You can't allow people who work within the law enforcement community to compromise our mission. We would just lose control of everything down there," he said.
It's a lesson Mexico learned the hard way, ignoring for years corrupt police until Calderon began to replace them with military personnel.

Ala. House Panel Oks Bill Regulating Title Loans
An Alabama House Committee has approved a bill that would regulate the issuing of title loans, while allowing most of the title loan businesses to continue operating.
The House Financial Services Committee approved the bill known as the Alabama Title Loan Act Wednesday on a voice vote with only one vote against the proposed legislation. The bill now goes to the full House for debate.
Opponents claimed the bill does not address what they say are the exorbitant interest rates charged by the industry. Title loans are transactions where a person's vehicle is often used as collateral.
The bill's sponsor, Republican Rep. Lesley Vance of Phenix City, says the title loan industry is necessary because many people take out the loans when they're in need of financial help.
