The past two years, the crew from Arbor Snowboards have put together Superpark edits that have gone down in the books and this year is no different. Scotty Vine, Brandon Hammid, Curtis Woodman, Sammy Spiteri, Sean Whitaker, Yuma Abe, Erik Leon, and more showed up to Mt. Hood Meadows this May to pick apart the Superpark features and select creative lines, exhibiting the Arbor brand of Earth surfing, jump sending, and rail riding that typifies a solid Superpark offering. We are pleased to showcase the riding of this talented team in this edition of Parallel SUPER Parking.
Put on your dancin' boots because it's a Ta-Hoedown with the Arbor team at the prodigiously stupendous mountains of Boreal and Northstar. Featuring Ian Sams, Scotty Vine, Alex Hereford, Sean Black, Yuma Abe, Erik Leon, and Blake Axelson.
Brighton Resort is covered in trees. It's also covered in snowboarders. Coincidentally, last week it was also covered in snowboarders on snowboards made of trees. This video is a compilation of those tree board ripping riders having a good old time up at one of Utah's most friendly resorts during the month of January.
Sitting parallel to the Venice Beach shoreline and the Arbor Snowboards headquarters is the San Bernardino Mountains, home of Bear Mountain.
Erik Leon, Ian Sams, Scotty Vine and a bunch of other wood-grain grippin' fools parked the whip and whipped the park at Mammoth Mountain this November.
After a season of Getting Lost With Ian Sams and Erik Leon and Austin Young through Montana, Minnessota, North Dakota, Michigan, Big Bear and Japan, the crew heads back to Venice, California, the home of Arbor Snowboards for a party the likes of which could only conclude these wild adventures in snowboarding. And now the moment we've all be waiting for… the conclusion of Getting Lost with Ian Sams Season 1 and the release of the Ian Sams Full Part.
Check out Flux/Arbor riders, Scotty Vine, Erik Leon, Ian Sams, Blake Axelson, Robert Toste, Keoni Kaimuloa along with Shaun Murphy,
Alex Hereford, Tyler Lynch and Ryan Tarbell in Flux Bindings new series Breaking Bear shot on location at Bear Mountain and directed by Matt Devino and produced by Brad Farmer.
In this episode, we follow Ian Sams as he prepares for, and competes in, Bear Mountain's premiere event Hot Dawgz & Hand Rails with additional appearances by Erik Leon, Daniel Brown and Scotty Vine. Make sure you check back on Thursday, October 24th for the conclusion of Season 1 of Getting Lost With Ian Sams and his Full Part release!
Still lost in Japan, Ian Sams and Erik Leon connect with Yuma Abe and head to Ishiuchi Resort for a quick and dirty park session in between filming a couple of street spots. The boys stacked some clips for their full parts and had a blast taking in the unique culture of Japan. As can be expected with this crew, things got a pretty weird and sometimes out of hand along the way…
In this episode 3 of Getting Lost With Ian Sams, the crew heads to Japan with the Flux Bindings team and well, they can't help but get lost in the streets, the powder and of every weird store, bar and restaurant along the way.
Stance: Regular | Comfy Width | 12°, -12°
HOME MOUNTAIN: Bear Mountain, CA
Like a drunken trucker barreling towards a helpless doe in the middle of the night on an Illinois interstate in 1965, Ian Sams kills it. Hailing from Southern California, Ian follows in the footsteps of the many great riders who have used Big Bear as a launching pad for their careers. After a year of Getting Lost around the world, Ian is back in Big Bear and set up to film his best video part to date.

Great actor. Great man. Will be missed. RIP.
He had more choices than most, and he chose to devote time and money to kids in need.
Having read the tributes in these pages and agreeing with all, one thing that I must reiterate is that I too wish times were more 'peaceful' with out the financial crisis and the world could have mourned his passing and celebrated his life.
I never could hear "Rain drops keep falling on my head" without nostalgia overtaking me with recollections of 'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid'.
Get a life.Who cares!
A truly unique personality in the Hollywood that says it treasures that, but more often rewards blandness and uniformity.
Paul Newman proved just how much good can be done with fame; he will live on as an example of charity and humility.
It is unfortunate that his passing took place in the midst of a financial collapse and a major US election. I would have liked to have seen his face on the front page of every major newspaper. I do however hope that those who take note of his life will use it as a shining example of humility and generosity for their own lives.
ese times of rising aspirations matched by declining values,Paul Newman was the rarest of celebrities who commanded respect by his on and off screen deeds.His life model can be an inspiration for generations to come.Paul makes me cast away some of my angst against the all pervading hypocrisy,especially amongst the elite of the society.Thank you Paul for rekindling hope in the world that everything is not lost.May your soul rest in Peace.
I recently went to the funeral of the sister of a good friend and in his eulogy, his opening paragraph included "...one hears eulogies and one wonders whom they are about because the descriptions bear no resemblance to the persons one once knew". Even without the name, Paul Newman and the associations of '50 years of marriage'; 'adoring family' and '$250m to charity' no other descriptions are needed and there is no question as to who is the recipient of these words - with or without the blue eyes!
Heartfelt condolences to his family and friends. We miss him too.
Its really sad to hear the news of sudden death of Paul Newman. I become fan of Mr. Newman since I was a Kid. I believe everyone will remember him the way he used to light-up the screen especially the cool sun glass in the "Color of Money' or the honest lawyer in ' The Verdict'. And above all I will always remember for his modesty and down to earth nature and the way he dedicated his life towards the greater benefit of all people.
Maybe many of you guys love the line. So do I."What we've got here, is a failure to communicate!"Then comes the bullet, and Luke goes down. But he still smiles. One of the very best smiles in adversity....A failure to communicate? Don't worry about it.Six days after you encountered with the man upstairs,the House approved the plan, and George (not your pal, the George Kennedy, but some other George) signed it. Should assuage the pains, but won't stave off them, it is said.Have seen you on video, DVD for the umpteenth time. I'll keep doin' that. For now. Adios, Luke.
Obviously, this is a page of tribute, not debate, since we all mourn Paul Newman, both the man and the very goodness of the man. In a Guardian obituary Brian Baxter writes that "he was proud of being among the top 20 on Nixon's 'most hated' list". That, if it were possible, would warm me even further to Paul. God bless.
When I moved to New York from India, I was not surprised to see a movie star's face on a trivial product. Movie stars, in India, sell everything from televisions and bank loans to magic beads and medicine. They make oodles of money in the process and no one thinks too much of it. I assumed Newman's Own was a similar venture - made in the background by some mega-corporation and touted by some pretty face.It took me some months of trickling information to learn the difference. And it intrigued me; celebrities are usually very concious of the marketibility of their image, and here was someone putting his own face on his own product, without the blue eyes - and he wasn't making any money off it. Natural cynicism insisted that some gimmick was involved, I just hadn't seen it yet. It took some time for Paul Newman's model to sink in. It is a legacy far beyond any that his movies can possibly be - Newman's Own will continue to sell products and charities will continue to benefit. Newman was successful in giving away his brand, which will continue to generate income and grow. A lot of people give away golden eggs; he found a way to give away the goose.
Rest In Peace and may God grant you eternal rest.Condolonces to the family and friends.
Paul Newman was a men with capital letter and with magnetic influence over the audience.Paul was a hero in one dissapeared world.
Paul Newman was one of the great actors from the golden age of Hollywood .He had a distinctive style and yet performed different roles with great flair , competence and excellence .He chose acting over stardom . I remember most of his movies and the last of his big movies was 'Sting' .
Paul Newman was my Hero in formative years.WE FLOCKED TO VIEW HIS MOVIES at Metro,Regal,Eros,New Empire theaters in Bombay, now Mumbai in mid 50s-full 60s.He personified elegant cute astute manhood of modern day America as we envisioned.A true Icon indeed of lasting value, as I perceive Him........pradeep athavale.,PUNE,INDIA.
*Abusive* husband in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof? Really? Someone needs to crosscheck their references.
A wonderfully generous and dedicated man with enough spice, like his dressings, to intrigue endlessly.
He will be missed.
It is God that comes down and it is God that goes up; in different shapes and phases he is manifested. In this world where goodness is economically unviable and spiritually it is direly in demand but the spirituality itself in the world of society, of which economics is back bone, is not. In this world where life is on yet those who created goodness are off. Paul Newman was more a human than great actor.
Every outstanding person in his/her field we may count and acknowledge too but out of these only a few become a true reflection of what had God wanted from a man on earth. Newman like a fragrance has evaporated; his body however will melt down beneath the grave like all extraordinary as well as un-extraordinary

ORANGE, July 17 - There comes a time in every young fighters career when he must step up and prove whether he can sink or swim against experienced opposition that would like nothing better than to pin the first loss on a prospects record.. On Friday, July 25, at Omega Products International in Corona, California, that time has come for unbeaten featherweight Juan Carlos Burgos, who will take on 24-fight veteran Andres Ledesma in an eight round clash that will headline Thompson Boxing Promotions latest Path to Glory show. Tickets to Path to Glory', a six bout card of world-class professional boxing, are priced at $75, $45 and $30 and may be purchased by calling 714-935-0900. Doors open at 6:30pm, and the first bell is at 7:45 pm. Omega Products International is located at 1681 California Ave., in Corona. The hard-hitting nephew of former world flyweight champion Victor Burgos, Juan Carlos Burgos (18-0, 14 KOs), is making his own name in the boxing business with a two-fisted attack that has fight-game insiders drooling over his potential. The WBC Continental Americas featherweight champion, Burgos, who most recently defeated Rafael Urias over ten rounds in April, is closing in on the elite of the featherweight division with each passing victory. In Colombias Andres Ledesma, (14-9-1, 9 KOs), he will not only be facing a seasoned battler with knockout power, but one who issued highly-touted Gary Stark Jr. his first pro loss via knockout in May of 2007, making him the toughest test yet for the 20-year old Burgos. Returning to the ring on July 25th will be Riverside middleweight Ivan Stovall (9-2, 6 KOs), a decorated United States amateur who competed in the 2004 Olympic trials and was a finalist in the Everlast US Championships. He is looking to bounce back from a controversial loss to unbeaten James Parison last October. Stovalls opponent will be named shortly. In a six round junior welterweight battle, unbeaten Riverside prospect Hector Serrano (7-0, 3 KOs) puts his perfect record on the line against Las Vegas Lester Belmores (4-8-1, 1 KO). Also in action, bantamweight knockout artist Felipe Orcuta (11-0, 10 KOs) hopes to score his eighth consecutive KO at the expense of LAs Alvaro Muro (5-9, 5 KOs) Rounding out this hard-hitting night of action will be a four round super bantamweight bout between debuting Walter Sarnoi and 1-0 Jesus Adame, and a junior middleweight four rounder pitting 4-0 (2 KOs) Mauricio Herrera against an opponent to be determined.

InnerFidelity's "Wall of Fame" Full-Size Sealed
These headphones encircle the ear and are sealed to isolate you from outside noise. This is a good type of headphone for people looking to do their listening in moderately loud environments where some isolation is needed, and where the comfort of a full-size headphone will permit long listening sessions.
The downside of sealed headphones is that because of the partially or completely sealed acoustic chambers between the ear and driver, and behind the driver, acoustic resonances that color the sound can occur. The sound of these headphones are generally more "closed in" and "uneven" sounding.
Good sealed headphones generally provide less isolation from outside noise than noise-canceling and in-ear headphones, but will usually provide better sound quality than noise-canceling headphones. If you are listening in very loud environments (airplane, subway, factory floor) a noise-canceling or in-ear headphone is likely a better choice.
Shure SRH1540 ($499) A wonderful sealed headphone with an open, spacious sound, complemented with a terrific build quality, smashing good looks, and superb comfort. Designed primarily with audio pros in mind, the headphone comes with spare ear-pads and cable, and appears quite durable. It has no folding features, but does come with a nicely protective hard case for transport and storage. An important note: while these headphones sound extraordinarily good at low listening levels, they tend to fall apart a bit at higher volumesbass can get bloated and loose; treble can become a little over-emphatic. Those who want a headphone that will perform more consistently mat want to consider the Focal and NAD headphones below. Read full InnerFidelity review here. |
Focal Spirit Professional ($349) This is an absolutely fantastic headphone for audio professionals. Supremely neutral with just a tad of elevated response in the 600Hz to 2kHz region for a bit of excitement and a deep bottomless bass, these cans are ideal for sound engineers. Dynamics are superb, and the music is effortlessly presented as a coherent whole. Ear-cups on these are slightly small and headband caliper pressure is slightly high, but these will ease a bit with time. None the less, those with large ears or head may want to look elsewhere. Finish is a durable black spackle; comes with both short cable with remote and long coiled cable; includes fabric carry/storage sack. Read full InnerFidelity review here. |
NAD VISO HP50 ($299) This outstanding headphone was designed with the philosophy that a headphone should sound like good speakers in a good room...and boy does it succeed! This somewhat warm sounding can does deliver slightly emphasized bass, but in so doing doesn't forget to care well for the rest of the music. Mid-range and treble response are very well proportioned, and quite coherent and open sounding for a sealed headphone. The goodness doesn't stop with the sound quality though, these cans are stylish, comfortable, nicely accessorized, and very importantly, fairly priced. One of the best over-ear, sealed headphones for general purposes; these will be very difficult to best. Read full InnerFidelity review here. |
V-Moda Crossfade M-100 ($310) For just about any one I know under the age of 35, the V-Moda M-100 is at the top of my recommendation list. The thump and drive and sparkle are irresistible with any form of contemporary popular music. Whether from an iPhone, computer, or high-end amp, as long as I was playing youthfully exuberant music the V-Moda M-100 flat out rocked. The V-Moda M-100 are a basshead's delight. Audiophiles looking for faithful reproduction should look elsewhere for a full-sized sealed headphone (Sennheiser Momentum, Logitech UE6000), the M-100 simply not transparent. But there are plenty of audiophiles, both young and old, who want something fun for popular music, and these cans will satisfy that itch. I know I'll definitely be keeping the M-100 in heavy use for a slammin' good time when the mood strikes. Add to the good time fun sound of the M-100 the fact that you're getting great styling, superb build quality, good isolation from noise, and uniquely useful accessories in an amazingly small package, and you've got yourself a candidate for the headphones with the broadest possible appeal in todays young market. Read full InnerFidelity review here. |
Audio Technica ATH-MSR7 ($249) The ATH-MSR7 is a solidly built with conservative but tasteful styling. They're a little heavy on the head, and clamping pressure is a little high right out of the box, but a bit of bending to the headband and you should be able to achieve a fairly comfortable fit. Still, comfort is good, but not great. Sound quality is superb, but these headphone do lean somewhat to the bright side. Bass is a bit low in level but quality is very goodthese are not for folks who like a lot of bass, however. Upper mid-range/low-treble are a little forward, but from mid-treble up response is just about right in level. Transient response is extraordinary; this headphone is near reference level in terms of an articulate and transparent view into the details of a recording. Highly recommended to audiophiles and audio pros alike with the one caveat that they tend a bit toward the bright side. Full InnerFidelity review here. |
Audio Technica ATH-M50x ($179) This may be the most commonly recommended headphone among headphone audio enthusiasts of all time, now made slightly better sounding, and having removable cables. A terrific value at this price point, the ATH-M50x delivers on all fronts. Sound quality is quite good, but somewhat uneven. Bass is slighly accentuated, and is very well extended into the lowest octaves. The treble now is slightly more relaxed than previous models and is quite resolving and accurate. Mid-range is slightly withdrawn making these cans sound just slightly hard, but it's audio performance remains head-and-shoulders above other sealed headphones at this price. Isolation and comfort are good, and build quality and durability are very good. Budding headphone audiophiles, amateur recordists, and audio pros needing a general purpose headphone for non-critical applications will really appreciate the M50x. The Audio Technica ATH-M50 is a very competent performer. Full InnerFidelity review here. |
Monoprice 8323 ($21.59) I can't imagine how anyone can produce a full-size headphone for $21, much less how they could do so and make one that sounds good as well. But by golly they sure did! If you're looking for a cheap beater headphone that will see duty in a backpack, playroom, or be bashed around in the back of the mini-van, these are your go-to choice. The one downfall of these headphones is a somewhat uncomfortable fit due to poor padding on the headband. The cable is very long at 10', and is removable from the left earpiece and is terminated at both ends with identical straight 1/8" mini-plugs. |
Wall of Fame Full-Size Sealed Retirees
Creative Aurvana Live! ($60) The CAL! was removed from the WoF when replaced by a successor CAL!2, which was found to be inferior. Every time I put these cans on I'm surprised at how good they sound! Overall the sound quality is very well balanced with a slight warm tilt. Low bass is slightly rolled-off and a bit loose, but the treble is very nicely proportioned and not harsh in the least. This is a great general purpose headphone for around the home or office, but somewhat poor isolation prevents them from being very useful for listening in loud environments. While the build quality is good, I would not consider these a durable headphone. If you're looking for headphones for kids and college students where time in a backpack is likely, I'd suggest the less expensive Monoprice 8323 ($21) or more expensive Sony MDR-ZX700. Full InnerFidelity review here. |
Focal Spirit Classic ($399) The Focal Spirit Classic was retired from the WoF with the placement of the Audio Technica ATH-MSR7, as it felt a bit redundant with the Focal Spirit Pro already on the list. Slightly more relaxed sounding than the Spirit Professional, the Spirit Classic is a headphone that audiophiles will love for long listening sessions. Extraordinarily neutral and wonderfully even sounding, the Classic is a terrific headphone for home and office. Dynamics are superb, and the music is effortlessly presented as a coherent whole. Ear-cups on these are slightly small and headband caliper pressure is slightly high, but these will ease a bit with time. None the less, those with large ears or head may want to look elsewhere. Finish is a classy metallic bronze; comes with both short cable with remote and long straight cable; includes fabric carry/storage sack. Read full InnerFidelity review here. |
Audio Technica ATH-M50 ($159) This headphone was replaced on the Wall of Fame by the subsequent model: ATH-M50x This may be the most commonly recommended headphone among headphone audio enthusiasts. A terrific value at this price point, the ATH-M50 delivers on all fronts. Sound quality is quite good, but somewhat uneven. Bass is slighly accentuated, and is very well extended into the lowest octaves. This is a good headphone for bassheads. The treble does have a slightly hard edge to it, but it's audio performance remains head-and-shoulders above other sealed headphones at this price. Isolation and comfort are fair, and build quality and durability are good. Pros and avid enthusiasts would do well to spend the extra to go for the SRH 840 above, but as a good consumer headphone, or general purpose studio can, the Audio Technica ATH-M50 is a competent performer. Full InnerFidelity review here. |
Sony MDR-1R ($299) This headphone was displaced by the NAD VISO HP50 and Focal headphones. While a little over emphatic in the upper-bass and upper-mids, I find at low to normal listening levels these cans sound much better than one would expect from the measurements. Warm and clear, with good imaging, I find them terrifically pleasurable for a mobile headset. Add to that its very good looks and terrific comfort, and you've got a headphone that's bound to please. A slight warning to those with ears that stick out a lot: the cups are a bit shallow, and you may find some discomfort after a while with ears touching the baffle plate. And those who listen to music loud may be off-put by a bit too much bloom in the bass, and a forward upper treble. But for most folks, this is likely the nicest mobile headset you can find. Read full InnerFidelity review here. |
Sennheiser Momentum ($349.95) This headphone was retired from the "Wall of Fame" due to the release of the NAD VISO HP50, which is less expensive, more comfortable, with somewhat better sound. Let me get my one gripe out of the way, these cans are slightly small for circumaural headphones, and folks with larger than average ears may want to test fit a pair before committing to a purchase. Aside from that... The Momentum is simply one of the best balanced headphone offerings I've ever experienced. They're very good looking, very good sounding, have excellent isolation, are easily driven from portable players, and are supremely comfortable. This is an ideal headphone for home, office, and listening on the move, but its sound is so good that I'll happily recommend it to audio professionals and audiophiles for all but the most demanding applications. Read full InnerFidelity review here. |
Denon AH-D5000 ($499) This headphone is retired due to being discontinued in mid-2012. Denon replacement headphones were not up to snuff, in my opinion. While the significantly more expensive D7000 ($799) sounds slightly better, I feel the D5000 delivers far more value for money. This is a luscious sounding headphone that delivers audio fidelity that will satisfy audiophile and audio pro alike. Though the bass is slightly loose, and highs slightly bright, these are minor quibbles given the poor performance of most sealed headphones. The big problem with the Denon AH-D5000 (and D7000 and D2000) is that they don't isolate very well at all, and while the build quality is quite good, they are not a rugged headphone. As a result, I do not recommend these cans for studio musician and portable applications where isolation and durability are likely important. But for home/office use where some isolation is useful, and were very good performance is desired, the D5000 is an excellent headphone. Read ful InnerFidelity review here. |
AKG K550 ($349) This headphone was retired due to the introduction of the UE6000, which I feel is a significantly more balanced sounding headphone. The slightly artificial sounding treble in the K550 became quite obvious in comparison. A great all-around performer! While not quite having the sonic finesse of the Denon sealed cans, the AKG K550 has a very well balance sound across the board. Some will complain they are thin and strident, but I've found that difficulty getting a good fit and seal on the head is the likely culprit. Once fitted to your head properly these deliver very good sound quality, indeed. The isolation is also very good on these headphones, which are well suited to listening in moderately loud environments. The comfort is excellent, as is the build quality and styling. For most audio pros, musicians, and audiophiles who are in search of a great all-around sealed headphone, the AKG K550 would be my top recommendation. I love these cans! Full InnerFidelity review here. |
Denon AH-D2000 ($349) This headphone is retired due to being discontinued in mid-2012. Denon replacement headphones were not up to snuff, in my opinion. For a long time this was my top recommendation for audio professionals needing some isolation. While the AKG K550 mentioned above is better as an all-around sealed headphone, the Denon AH-D2000 bests it in terms of clarity in the treble. These headphones are wonderfully resolving and coherent, with a slight tendency to be a tad bright. Comfort and build quality is excellent, but due to their somewhat fragile design should not be used in rough-and-tumble applications. Isolation is poor, so those listening in louder environments should look elsewhere. But if you're looking for excellent performance with some isolation at this price point, the AH-D2000 is an excellent choice. Read ful InnerFidelity review here. |
Logitech UE6000($199) This headphone was retired from the Wall of Fame due to the Sennheiser Momentum coming out with a better sounding sealed headphone (the 6000 is a bit lacking in mid-to-upper treble), and the Sony MDR-1R arriving with roughly comparable sound quality, but better looks and ergonomics at the same price. Original copy follows. With a slightly warm, but very well balanced character, the UE6000 has rapidly become one of my favorite full-size, sealed headphones...at any price. The styling, build quality, and isolation are excellent. It's also a noise canceling headphone, but the noise canceling is not particularly effective, and makes the headphones sound too bass-heavy and loose, and somewhat withdrawn in the mids. None the less, this feature may come in handy in loud environments where a little extra bass and treble presence may make movies and videos a bit more enjoyable. I'd also recommend this headphone for audio professionals as the balance is so good, and it seems to be well built. I don't recommend using the noise canceling circuit in pro applications. The headphones come with a soft carry case and headphone splitter. The cable has a three-button, Apple compatible remote. Read full InnerFidelity review here. |
Shure SRH840 ($199) This headphone was retired due to the better sounding UE6000 becoming available at the same price. With a warm and comfortable sound, good isolation, and tank-like build quality, the Shure SRH840 is a top performer at this price point. Semi-pros, musicians, and audio enthusiasts looking for a headphone that will satisfy in moderately loud environments will love the SRH840. Recordists should be aware of the slightly warm tilt to the sound of the SRH840 so as not to overly compensate with eq. Treble response is likewise slightly emphatic, giving these cans a slightly "happy," U-shaped listening experience. While these headphone apear rather large and bulky, they are quite comfortable and appropriate for long listening sessions, though they can get a bit warm. |

ProsEngine, weird looks that are just plain cool ConsTransmission feel, build quality
2001 Bmw M Coupe — Amazing engine performance: the sound and pulling power aftet 3000RPMs is amazing. Individual throttle bodies really make the car sing. Build quality is terrible, and this goes to the engine, chassis and interior trim pieces. Transmission feels horrible: rubbery, long, too notchy Brakes are outstanding Floaty suspension, very soft. Car pitches and dives too much on braking and you're piloting a plane on take off with the way the nose of the car lifts during hard acceleration. |

The burberry babies
With more designers producing high fashion for children, a look at whether infant chic is worth it.
I was recently in London shopping for my cousin's baby shower. Not knowing much about newborns, I asked some of my young mother friends for gifting suggestions - which ranged from Tod's shoes to Gucci caps. It struck me that these are presents more suited for an 18th birthday party then a yet-to-be-born baby. Go to any restaurant for a Sunday brunch and you are bound to run into noisy children running around. Which is fine, but when these children are clad in Burberry checks or Baby Dior booties, you do feel that children are just growing up too quickly. It's not just foreign designers, the desi brigade too has jumped on the infant chic bandwagon so much so that last year there was even an Indian Kids Fashion Week staged. Even one of my favourite design studios Play Clan is retailing t-shirts for children. So clearly there is a market for this, despite how I feel. Abraham and Thakore recently did a line of boy kurtas for the Bombay-based MAL boutique which specialises in children's clothing. About the move into this segment, David Abraham says, "It is part of a larger trend. Many companies are now looking at children. Look at the food segment or all the children's channels on television. " I guess business is business and in times of recession children products still grew. In the last couple of years both Gucci and Burberry have increased their sales of clothing for children both here and abroad, and this week Armani Junior opened its first flagship store in Delhi. It may come as no surprise to hear that Indian moms - those who can afford it, of course - love to dress their children designer. In fact, Gucci is looking at expanding their kids' section in its store at Emporio and will dedicate a whole corner to it.
This is something that Suneet Varma (the designer who is one of the promoters of Unique Eye Luxury, the company that brought Armani Junior to India) realised. The 2, 000-plus-square-foot Armani Junior store in Emporio store has Vertu and Paul Smith as its neighbours. It also houses a special education centre from where art appreciation, music and elocution classes will take place.
"Two years ago, I decided I wanted to be in the luxury business. Hermes, Louis Vuitton and Gucci, all the big players, are here already. But there was no children's wear brand. Burberry and Gucci had a rack dedicated to children and I noticed it was always selling out, " Varma says.
So Varma saw an opportunity, did some research and found that within apparel, the highest growing sector was children's with 27 per cent growth. Armani was one the first brands to launch a line for the young (back in 1982) and is one of the most successful luxury children's wear brands in the world and Varma naturally thought of them first.
Now that still does not answer many questions I have about children in designer clothing. Should babies, infants and children be exposed to designer clothes? What about the expense, why spend silly money on clothes that they are going to grown out of or ruin within hours?
An Indian designer lehenga for your threeyear-old daughter can cost around Rs 15, 000, a pair of Gucci loafers Rs 12, 000 and an Armani Junior polo t-shirt for your toddler can set you back by Rs 5, 000. So I decided to turn back to some of young mother friends.
Said one, "I have never bought my son designer clothing. I think it is wrong. But I have received them as gifts. I must admit I have found them useful for special occasions and of more use than the silver spoons and bowls that are the traditional gifting items for newborns. " But the same friend observed that many young mothers are now substituting the it-bag with designer clothes for children. "Children parties have become like a dressing up competitions !"
Another friend loves seeing her little one in Burberry checks, Tod's drivers and Gucci dresses and is very excited about the launch of Armani Junior in India. "I wear Armani and I love it. So why should I not have my children wear Armani?" As wallet sizes grow and designer wear becomes part of everyday life for some, it is normal to have everyone in the house wear designer clothes. "If you have the money it is natural to want to spend it on your children, " says Varma. "Also the clothes are made with a lot of technology. Special fabrics that will stretch are used and special features such as roll-up sleeves are incorporated so they will last. "
And even when it comes to clothes for grown-ups, with fashion and trends changing every season, much of what we buy often does not last more than a couple of years.
The third mother I spoke to added a very interesting point, "It really is up to the parents how they introduce and how much importance they put on the designer aspect of the garment. I have bought a Burberry trench for my daughter and she knows it is a special item only to be worn when occasion demands. She also is aware that I will be passing it down to her baby sister, so treats it with care. I do not see anything wrong with making investment designer purchases for the children. "
Perhaps it is a fact of life;children are growing up quicker than they did before. They are more aware of brands than ever. This is simply a sign of the times. "Maybe, when this generation grows up, it will be so exposed that it will not care about showing off the way their parents do, " said one very observant father.
But here is a request (actually applicable to both parents and children). How and in what you dress your child is a personal choice but just remember wearing logo branded clothes head to toe is vulgar! So please don't do it! After all the point of letting your children wear is designer is to educate them as to what good taste is.

1917 Stanley Cup Finals
The 1917 Stanley Cup Final was contested by the Pacific Coast Hockey Association (PCHA) champion Seattle Metropolitans and the National Hockey Association (NHA) and Stanley Cup defending champion Montreal Canadiens. Seattle defeated Montreal three games to one in a best-of-five game series to become the first United States-based team to win the Cup.
Paths to the final[edit]
Seattle won the PCHA title after finishing the 1916–17 regular season in first place with a 16–8 record. Meanwhile, Montreal advanced to the final series after narrowly defeating the Ottawa Senators, 7–6, in a two-game total-goals playoff series to end the 1916–17 NHA season.
The series[edit]
The games of the Final were played at the Seattle Ice Arena. Games one and three were played under PCHA seven-man rules; games two and four were played under NHA six-man rules. Bernie Morris scored 14 of Seattle's 23 total goals for the series, including six in their 9–1 victory in game four. Future Hockey Hall of Fame goaltender Hap Holmes recorded a 2.90 goals-against average for the Mets.
- Game one
In game one, Didier Pitre scored four goals as he led the Canadiens to an 8–4 victory. Pitre opened the scoring in the third minute before Morris tied it four minutes later. Jack Laviolette scored twenty seconds later to put the Canadiens ahead, followed by Pitre to put the Canadiens ahead 3–1 after one period. Con Corbeau and Newsy Lalonde scored in the second to put the Canadiens ahead 5–1 after two periods. In the third, Morris and Frank Foyston scored to bring Seattle within two goals, before Pitre scored again. Morris scored to make it 6–4 before Pitre and Corbeau scored to make the final score 8–4.[1]
- Game two
Seattle tied the series with a convincing win played under NHA hockey rules. Morris opened the scoring at nine minutes of the first period. Wilson scored to make it 2–0 for Seattle after the first period. Morris and Foyston scored in the second to put Seattle up 4–0 after two periods. Frank Foyston then scored twice in the third period to complete his hat trick and give Seattle a lead of 6–0. Seattle then played defensively but Tommy Smith scored in the final minutes for the Canadiens to spoil the shutout. Frustration boiled over at the start of the third period with a fight between Roy Rickey and Billy Coutu before Harry Mummery jumped into the fray.[2]
- Game three
The game was played at a fast clip with no goals before Morris scored after ten minutes. Montreal's goaltender Georges Vézina made several big saves in the second to hold Seattle off from scoring. Coutu and Rickey had their third fight of the series and Coutu was given a twenty-minute penalty and Rickey a ten-minute period. The Canadiens held off Seattle in an ensuing power play to end the second with Seattle holding a one-goal lead. In the third, Foyston scored after five minutes and Morris scored a quick pair of goals to give Seattle a 4–0 lead.[3]
- Game four
In an individual rush, Morris put the Mets ahead early in the first period. The Canadiens tried to fight back, but were stymied by the defences of Seattle. Seattle scored three times in the second period to put the game out of reach. In the third, the onslaught continued, as the Mets led 7–0 before Laviolette scored to break the shut out.[4]
Game-by-game | Winning team | Score | Losing team | Rules used | Location | |
1 | March 17 | Montreal Canadiens | 8–4 | Seattle Metropolitans | PCHA | Seattle Ice Arena |
2 | March 20 | Seattle Metropolitans | 6–1 | Montreal Canadiens | NHA | |

LIBRARY /// REANIMATION LIBRARY: Hackney Branch
Feat. Nina Beier, David Horvitz, Ruth Beale, Hans Diernberger, Richard John Jones, Raphael Hefti and Damien Roach.
The Reanimation Library is an independent library based in Brooklyn, New York. It is a collection of books that have fallen out of mainstream circulation. Outdated and discarded, they have been culled from thrift stores, stoop sales, and throw-away piles across the country and given new life as resource material for artists, writers, and other cultural archaeologists.
Reanimation Library: Hackney Branch will consist of a small selection of books from the main library and a set of locally acquired books that will be made available for the general public to work with in the gallery space for the duration of the show. The branch library at SPACE will also feature an exhibition of artists' responses to a treasured volume in the library's collection: Inkblot Perception and Personality: Holtzman Inkblot Technique (University of Texas Press, 1961). Responses to the book will be made by an invited list of artists.
COURTYARD & MARE STREET BILLBOARD /// !MEDIENGRUPPE BITNIK: Too big to Fail, Too Small to Succeed

Private detectives, advertising and media technologies playfully probe the blind spots of the financial districts and question the shift in power from state to corporation. This is Swiss artist collective !Mediengruppe Bitnik's first UK solo exhibition and is presented concurrently with an exhibition at Les Complices in Zurich. It follows their three-month
PERMACULTURES residency at SPACE investigating the parasitic potential of media-based sys¬tems against the backdrop of the financial crises. !Mediengruppe Bitnik describe their work as an 'explorative practice' to determine how systems can be subverted, interfered with and transformed.
Luke Dowd works with screen-printed and spray-painted surfaces to create works that question our perception of value and quality. For the Foyer Space he will present a cluster of brand-new works on canvas including original abstract paintings, expressive koi screen-prints, and copies of modern masterpieces.
Luke Dowd was born in New York City and completed an MFA at Chelsea College of Art & Design. He has recently exhibited at Hotel, London and The Breeder, Athens. Dowd lives and works in London.

Under the Surrogate's Court Procedure Act, necessary parties (specifically listed in the statute) must be served with a Citation. Other persons in the will who are not entitled to receive a Citation must be mailed a notice of probate. When probating a will in New York, necessary parties should be properly served with the Citation.

In New York State, a Medicaid applicant may transfer the homestead, without penalty, to his/her adult child who RESIDED in the Medicaid applicant's home for at least 2 years, immediately prior to the applicant's most recent institutionalization, and who provided care to the applicant which permitted the applicant to reside at home rather than in a medical facility. It is presumed that the child "provided care" unless there is evidence to the contrary. Residency is based on the intent to...

According to current law, retirement accounts are exempt as resouces when qualifying for Medicaid. However, income from retirement accounts are generally not exempt. That being said, there are additional income protections for applicants and community spouses of applicants. Medicaid eligibilty is complex and a full review of your parents' assets and income is required to asses Medicaid eligibility. You should contact a qualified elder law attorney.

You should certainly contact an estate attorney right away. In New York State, an estate attorney handles the majority of the probate proceeding. The Court cannot take away your right to letters testamentary without giving you notice and an opportunity to be heard. I suspect that the Order that you received is giving you this notice. If you fail to comply, you may be deemed to have renounced your right to letters testamentary. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to...

You should contact an attorney that handles guardianship matters, such as an elder law attorney. An attorney should review the documents that are currently in place and review how your Uncle's assets are held. As indicated in the prior response, a guardianship proceeding may be required.
Many real estate sellers in your situation are able to sell a home that is in need of additional repairs. The real estate contract of sale can be structured for an "as-is" sale, with the terms of the contract reflecting that you will not make any additional repairs. Speak to a real estate attorney in your area.
It is always preferable for a seller to be present at closing; however, you may be able to pre-sign all documents before the closing. Talk to your real estate attorney about pre-signing the documents.

For more than 30 years, this family-owned food market chain has built a reputation for fresh food and customer service. A family tradition that began more than three decades ago continues on today in DeCicco Family Markets. Founded in the Bronx, the company now has six locations in New York, one each in Ardsley, Bronxville, Jefferson Valley, New City, Pelham, and Scarsdale.
This Spokane, Wash. boot manufacturer builds the kind of footwear that can last a lifetime. In today's throwaway society, it is increasingly harder to find the kind of high quality, handmade goods that are built to last a lifetime. However, for White's Boots, a commitment to making boots that are built to last isn't just a marketing strategy, it's a tradition.
By offering a wide range of products and services not typically found at an outlet of its kind, this pharmacy chain is breaking new ground. Kohll's Pharmacy & Homecare is a Nebraska-based organization that offers a unique assortment of products and services to its customers. The company has seven locations spread throughout the city of Omaha; all of the facilities are home to a fully staffed pharmaceutical team, but each also boasts its own portfolio of advanced services not typically found at your neighborhood pharmacy.
The success of this independent retail chain proves that a show of appreciation can go a long way with customers, employees, and vendors. The volatile economic climate has affected businesses across every industry throughout the last 12 to 18 months, both in the US and abroad. And although no business or market has really shown immunity, some have certainly been hit harder than others. With unemployment at a staggering high, many people have adapted to the situation by curtailing their spending, which, of course, has had a significant impact on the retail world, making it one of the hardest hit.
Giving customers the most for their money has helped this 35-store chain stay a step ahead in the dollar store industry. New York-based dollar store chain Just-A-Buck rose to prominence in a busy industry by offering its customers products that are inexpensive, but not cheap. "When we opened our first close-out store in 1988, we decided that we would sell at the dollar price point, and customers couldn't believe the value they were getting," said Steve Bakst, president and CEO.
A service culture, bolstered by the best fashions, fine tuned stores, and technology investments, helped this Texas specialty clothing chain reach 65 years in business. Since 1945, Julian Gold has carved out a name for itself in Texas as a specialty store providing women with top fashions at competitive prices. Founded in San Antonio, the company now has locations in Austin, Corpus Christi, and Midland. The stores offer whatever a women could want, from designer brands, sportswear, contemporary, bridal, and casual clothes to eveningwear, shoes, lingerie, accessories, cosmetics, jewelry, and handbags.
This grocery store chain may not be the largest around, but it takes the time to find out how it can help its customers. With nine grocery stores in Virginia and North Carolina, Farmer's Foods is a small chain that is looking to grow without losing sight of the needs of its customers. "We think we really know our customer base and really cater to it," said Pedro Carrasco, the director of marketing and procurement. "We provide the goods and items our customers want; we don't take a one-size-fits-all approach."
This C-store chain is known for its fresh-from-the-cow dairy products as well as its dedication to its employees and the communities it serves. Long before eat-local supporters began sprouting up across the country, Lochmead Dairy of Junction City, Ore. was selling fresh milk and dairy products directly to consumers. After managing the Lochmead Dairy farm for 25 years, Gladys and Howard Gibson opened the first Dari Mart convenience store in 1965.

Nice set but needs 15mm
By Beachbum
from Hillsborough, NJ
About Me Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
I bought this set a few years ago along with the 1/2" drive standard depth set. But both sets did not have a 15mm which is a very common size. They should replace the 16mm (which is very rarely used, if ever?) with a 15mm. That would make these sets much better.Also, my sets came with a nice metal case. Now they come with a cheap plastic rail.But overall I am very pleased with both sets and they are certainly a very good value.

How can 15mm not be included?
By Stihl man
from PA
These sockets are really tough but 15mm is a very common size that needs to be in the set!!!!!I've used a 1/2 for a 13mm9/16 for 14mm5/8 for 16mm3/4 for 19mmBut 15mm has nothing that works except 15mm
High quality but....
By Route 66 T-Bird
from Land of Enchantment
I bought this mainly for 10mm, 13mm, and 15mm while working on an engine swap project. However I didn't look at it closely and I was really bummed that 15mm nor 18mm wasn't included when I went to use it. Why would they skip 15mm which is a very common size and include 19mm which I will never use? The only alternative is to buy the 1/2" set which has sockets I'll never use in a lifetime. I will have to buy the 15mm as a single elsewhere. I would still recommend it, but make sure your project doesn't require the missing sockets.

| PDF 201Kb |
Recent years have witnessed a silent diversification of traditional fishing methods all along the east and west coasts of India. This is especially so around Tuticorin. Two recent innovations in fishing gear added great impetus to the capture of nearshore fish and prawns. One such gear is the * Thallu madi' a smaller modified version of the shrimp trawl. It is operated round the year from a single non-mechanised Tuticorin type boat. Another gear is the improved drift gill net the' Disco net *. It is normally operated from a powered Tuticorin type boat. By and large these nets are dependable and good many traditional fishermen are benefited from them by way of improved catch. Opsrational parameters, species composition and catch-per-unit are given for' Thallu madi' from 1979 to 1986 and for' Disco net' from its introduction in the 1987 season

iPad 5 and iPad Mini 2 release date, event details, and hardware specs rounded up
- By Grant Brunner on October 9, 2013 at 3:46 pm
- Comment
Share This article
After many months of impatient waiting, Apple's yearly iPad event is finally upon us. Apple will hold its invite-only event on October 22, and that neatly falls in line with what we've been hearing out of the rumor mill. While there haven't been any firm details about the release date of the next iPad and iPad Mini, a November 1 release is the most likely — at least here in the United States.
Despite all of the excitement, iPad revisions aren't the only news scheduled to come out of this event. AllThingsD has been led to believe that OS X Mavericks and the new Mac Pro will be highlighted prominently at this event. Since Apple has already promised the launch of the cylindrical Mac Pro, and Mavericks has gone gold, these seem like very safe bets. The MacBook Pro still hasn't received a bump up to Intel's Haswell platform, so it's likely that we'll see that announcement bundled into this event as well.
So, what can we expect with the new iPad and iPad Mini? It's widely believed that we'll see a thinner and less curvy design on the backside of Cupertino's new tablets. Right on time, Sonny Dickson has posted pictures of supposedly leaked iPad shells. The photos are crisp and clear, but it's always possible that these will turn out to be completely bogus. Keep in mind, Apple produces countless prototypes for its product lines. Even if this is legitimately from Apple's supply chain, it might not be representative of the final product.It's safe to assume that we'll see the iPad Mini ship with a 2048×1536 Retina display this year as well. Reports have surfaced claiming that Samsung will be making the high-res 7.9-inch display for Apple, but we all know how strained that business relationship is right now. Apple is most certainly in talks with countless vendors, so any number of business deals could have changed leading up to the official launch. Whether the new iPad Mini will have the new 64-bit A7 SoC remains to be seen, but probably not.
We might also see the launch of more iPad colors. Since these leaked iPad shells show off the "Space Gray" aesthetic, we could see the gold backing from the iPhone 5s come to the iPad as well. If you thought a golden iPhone was garish, just wait until you lay your eyes on a 9.7-inch iPad completely decked out in gold. At this point, we simply have to wait and see how far Apple is willing to push the "blinged out" look on its popular iOS devices.
It's fairly safe to assume that both the new iPad and iPad Mini will be equipped with the new Touch ID fingerprint sensor, too — though, curiously enough, the rumor mill has been very quiet on this front. In fact, in general, the iPad and iPad Mini rumor mill has been surprisingly quiet all year. Whether this is indicative of an interesting shake-up or not, we'll have to wait for October 22 to find out.

Great Pyrenees
Tags: working, Large-sized, Kid-friendly, Protective guardian, Challenging for first-time owners
The French side of the Pyrenees mountains is where we guarded shepherds and their flocks from wolves and bears for hundreds of years. But my really ancient ancestors might have come from Siberia, Tibet, and Turkey (no one kept pedigree records in those days). We've guarded peasant homes and royal castles, smuggled goods through snowy mountain passes, and sat in the court of Louis XIV. The Great Pyrenees stands 25-32 inches at the shoulder (weighing 99-132 pounds) and was accepted into the AKC's Working Group in 1933.

What to expect
I need you to start my obedience training early (I'll be near-great before you know it) and keep that training firm, patient and consistent (because I take my Great-ness seriously and tend to dominate if you don't accept that role). Keep close control in class and around town, because I must learn not to be aggressive toward other dogs my size. One thing not to start early is strenuous exercise. My fast-growing puppy bones and muscles shouldn't have too much stress and strain. Ask the vet when I've reached the peak of the growth charts, and manage my exercise and feeding accordingly.
Watch for
Possible hip dysplasia, deafness, and cataracts.

This holiday season, entrepreneurs are among those getting into the toy business. Among them MakerBot Industries, which just opened a store in Manhattan where 3D printer hobbyists—young and old—can check out the company's new Replicator2 printer and get inspired to make their own creations. Click through the slideshow to check out the other entrepreneurs.
Louis Seigal
The latest additions to Forbes 30 Under 30 list are Carly Gloge (pictured) and Isaac Squires, 28 and 29, a husband and wife team whose toy company, Ubooly, was first funded on Kickstarter. The company makes a smart stuffed animal that allows parents to zip an iPhone or iPod inside.
Parents who are wondering what to do with an old iPhone or iPod can zip it inside Ubooly's stuffed animal, which is transformed into a "smart" toy once the company's app is downloaded onto the device. Kids can activate it to play games without handling the gadget directly.
Ayah Bdeir is the founder and chief executive officer of littleBits, whose mission is to get kids building their own electronic gizmos and gadgets with the company's kits.
The long-awaited Holiday Kit from littleBits is priced at $49, and consists of seven little "bits" that let children make their own holiday ornaments and decorations that can beep, buzz, twinkle, and more. Designed for children ages 8 and up, the kits let children build simple circuits using a power source, a connector and an output. For example the bits can let them pulse the output devices and add light and motion controls. Other smaller and larger kits available too. Read more here.
Laurie Hyman and Robert von Goeben came up with the idea for a toy line made from 100 percent recycled plastic milk containers and started the business in a Silicon Valley garage. Now Green Toys is a $10 million a year business, and it's all Made in the USA.
Green Toys
Green Toys, aimed at the littlest of tots ages 1 and up, are made of BPA-free plastic and can be cleaned in the dishwasher. Read more here.
Bre Pettis, the cofounder of MakerBot Industries, announced in November that the company was opening a 3-D photo booth at its new store in Manhattan that lets visitors get scanned and have miniature versions of their head produced in plastic from the company's printers. Targeting adult and children enthusiasts, the store also has working versions of its Replicator2 printers and a gumball machine where visitors can buy printed out creations.
Teresa Novellino
Items like this castle, featured at MakerBot Industries' new store in Manhattan, were produced with the company's Replicator 2, its fourth and most powerful 3-D printer for hobbyists. Read more here.
Roominate Toys, a startup founded by Stanford University graduates Alice Brooks and Bettina Chen, produced its first batch of room-building kits for do-it-yourself dollhouses just in time for the holidays. Brooks and Chen, who came up with the idea as second-year engineering master's students, wanted to help girls learn about building. Read the story.
