Solving Shade
Shade gets a bad rap, but shade gardens are actually exquisite repositories of an amazing variety of colors, textures, and foliage. We "solve" your shade problems with beautiful flowers, helpful plans, and stylish containers. Start with an old standby: hostas. We give you ideas to help you choose the best varieties for your outdoor spaces. Hosta is one example of a perennial that rewards in shade spaces from year to year; we have other selections that offer color from the warm rays of spring to the cooling daylight in fall. Some annuals love shade and are easy to care for; try a combination of several of our top picks. Surprisingly, some wildflowers flourish in sun-shy spaces; we have photos that will wow you and plants that will love your shade garden. In the heat of summer, shade can be quite welcome. To create your own cool retreat, explore our ideas for a secluded getaway. Is the front or back of your house in shade? Has that prevented you from including window boxes? Use this year to embrace shade-loving window boxes with plant-by-number creations that will brighten your home's facade.

One Of Many
My studiomate Wesley Verhoeve launched a fantastic new project called One of Many. Over the next few months, Wesley will travel to 12 cities across the US and over the course of a week immerse himself in their creative communities. The results are beautiful essays with stunning portrait photography and personal stories. Check out Charleston.
Wesley, who is the most outgoing person I have ever met, can strike up a conversation with anyone. When visiting these cities, he will be seeking out designers, chefs, woodworkers, farmers, engineers, writers, coffee brewers and anyone else making something that moves people.
Wesley believes that being a small business owner or a creative independent is exhilarating, but it can also be quite lonely and stressful. With One of Many Wesley wants to remind us that we are not alone. We are part of a growing movement. We are one of many.

Charlie Kim on Company Culture
I recently had the pleasure to meet Charlie Kim of a Manhattan based technology firm called Next Jump. He is a remarkable example of a founder and CEO that is all about seeing his employees grow, not only in skill but in character.
Charlie has developed multitude of internal company culture programs that range from an in-house mentor program, to fitness programs, as well an internal university.
He has also developed a staff inclusive hiring process that guarantees a new hire never to be fired. Charlie Kim sees a new hire similar to a family adopting a new family member. If your kid underperforms you nurture and help them, don't kick them out.
Charlie's work is nothing short of impressive and just like him, I want my employees to feel cared for and I want them to be proud to work for me.
Charlie is a huge role model to me when it comes to how he thinks about company culture. Watch his keynote at the Colorado Health Symposium and you'll see why.
Simon Sinek mentions Charlie in his most recent TED talk.

Daniel Dennet on how to compose a successful critical commentary
1. You should attempt to re-express your target's position so clearly, vividly, and fairly that your target says, "Thanks, I wish I'd thought of putting it that way.
2. You should list any points of agreement (especially if they are not matters of general or widespread agreement).
3. You should mention anything you have learned from your target.
4. Only then are you permitted to say so much as a word of rebuttal or criticism.
– Daniel Dennet

A man swings a sledgehammer at the fallen, 3.45-meter granite statue to Vladimir Lenin on Dec. 8 in downtown Kyiv in front of a shocked crowd.
© Katya Gorchinskaya
Why are you at EuroMaidan today? Are you planning to come back here in a week?
Radical protesters clash with special police unit at Lenin monument (VIDEOS)
Then & Now: Shevchenko Boulevard before Vladimir Lenin came to power
Nationalists want all monuments to Lenin removed from Ukraine
After 67 years, Kyiv's main statue to Soviet leader Vladimir Lenin was taken down.
It happened at approximately 6 p.m. when a group of young men with no clear party or group affiliation used an electric steel cable to topple the 3.45-meter high statue. Authorities erected the statue in 1946 to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the constitution, created by Joseph Stalin, Lenin's successor who ruled until 1953.
Police say they are investigating the incident.
The move received polar reactions in the nation.
"This act is testimony to what's happening in the country…that it is not a revolution or a democratic (process) but a neo-Nazi revolt designed to seize power in the country," said Oleksandr Holub, a Communist Party lawmaker who hails from Lviv. "We're seeing many western Ukrainians (in Kyiv) trying to impose their will, their own version of history and of the future…if this won't be stopped by law enforcement then Ukraine will cease to exist as a unified country."
After the statue came down, the group shouted that "(President Viktor) Yanukovych, you'll be next!" They then took turns using a sledgehammer to smash the granite statue to pieces.
The nationalist Svoboda party – which some singled out as being responsible for the act – said it would be unfair to lay the blame on them for taking down the statue.
"Participants of EuroMaidan altogether toppled the monument, which was standing there illegally. There was a presidential decree (by former President Viktor Yushchenko in 2009) about its abolition," said Yuriy Syrotiuk, the spokesman of Svoboda.
Eighty nine years after his death, to millions of Ukrainians Lenin is a derisive figure, but to millions of others he is still revered.
An almost sacred figure to former and current members of the Communist Party, but resented by millions of Ukrainians who view Lenin as an oppressor who deprived them of a state following World War I, this was the third notable and only successful attempt to take down the statue.
The first in recent history came on June 30, 2009 when several nationalist and anti-Communist activists used a sledgehammer to break off Lenin's nose and part of his left hand. The damaged monument was removed from its pedestal and was reconstructed.
Then on Dec. 1, a group of 300 radical protesters tried taking down the statue with a similar tool. The police fended off the attack, but not after two of their own were injured.

Throughout my career in higher education, I have had the privilege of seeing wealthy people give joyously to charitable organizations they believe in as a means of helping others succeed. These are generous people who have philanthropic dreams that are realized via their giving through reputable and long-serving nonprofit organizations.
It is important that Congress and the president preserve the charitable tax deduction during their deficit negotiations. Our nation's nonprofits are already challenged by a poor economy. Our legislators shouldn't make things more difficult by disincentivizing the wealthy by reducing the charitable gift deduction. The good work being accomplished by local and national nonprofits should not be hampered by the tax code. The current charitable deduction encourages people to voluntarily give away their wealth to benefit others. Why hit hardest the philanthropic among us who give the most?
If anything, we need to seek out a proposal that will give the wealthy an even greater incentive to give and benefit society.

"Brooklyn Nets month of November"
By: Kyle Caso @3_Pointz
On November 1st Brooklyn was going to experience the biggest sports event since the Dodgers final game in 1957. It was going to be the battle of the boroughs. Manhattan vs Brooklyn. Carmelo Anthony and the Knicks were going to battle it out in the new arena. October 31st the game was Postponed and moved to the 26th of November due to the destruction of Hurricane sandy. So on November 3rd the Raptors came to visit and play the first game major sporting event in brooklyn in 55 years.
Over the course of the month the Brooklyn Nets have done pretty darn well especially since only 5 players from last year are returning to play so that means the other 10 players on the roster have never really played with each other. In the 2010-11 season the Miami Heat made it obvious that you can't just throw a bunch of great players together and expect everything to become easy. They started there season off 9-6 and closer to the 8 seed then the first seed. Brooklyn is tied for the first as of now with the Heat and there cross town rival's the Knicks.
Brooklyn has started off 10-4 and has played amazingly despite the lack of performance from a really banged up Deron Williams, an inconsistent Joe Johnson, a Kris Humphries who averages are down 5 points and 3 rebounds and a Gerald Wallace who can't seem to get it together offensively.
Whats really keeping this team alive is Brook Lopez's near 20 Ppg. and the defensive intensity Avery Johnson is forcing his team to play. The Nets are last in opponents points per game with only 90.7. Also the Nets are averaging 4.4 Blocks a game which is 7th in the league and also anchored by the new and improved defensive Brook Lopez who is averaging 2.5 Blocks a game.
The Nets bench is also contributing. C.J Watson scored 15 in the opener against the Raptors and 13 in two other games. Andray Blatche is the benches leading scorer with nearly 10 Ppg. his shot selection has been amazing, last year with the Wizards he was a player know for taking stupid shots that were out of his range. The first meeting with Boston this year blatche shot 11-12 with 22 points and didn't miss a shot till the end of the 3rd quarter.Since that performance his FG% has dropped closer to 40%. You can't forget about Jerry Stackhouse who is playing like he's 28. Jerry is shooting .536 behind the arc which is 3rd in the league.There's also Reggie "Big Dog" Evans who leads the team in Total Offensive and Deffensive Rebounds, along with Rebounds per game, and the biggest number is that he leads the entire league in rebounds per 48 minuets with 21.1, His partner in crime Kris Humphries is 8th on that list with 16.5.
Along with all the Goods there are plenty of thing the Nets need to work on. When D-Will comes out of the game, they have very little flow to there offense. Brooklyn is 18th in Ppg, 17th in FG% and 23rd in field goals made this season. Also MarShon Brooks has gathered up 3 straight DNP's which was Avery's decision.he also missed a few games due to a ankle sprain. MarShon was projected second behind Jamal Crawford to win 6th man of the year but due to MarShon defensive challenges coach Johnson inserted Jerry Stackhouse to take the role of the backup SG.
Overall November has been a huge success for the Nets. Despite a few tough losses to the Timberwolves,Heat and Lakers the Nets pulled out some big victories including going 2-0 against Boston, One involving a brawl that got Kris Humphries and Gerald Wallace ejected and might have started a whole new rivalry with another powerhouse franchise.Hopefully the Nets can keep it up and Deron Williams and Brook Lopez get healthy quickly cause there gona need them if there going to succeed.

In a major victory for employers, on June 20 the U.S. Supreme Court held that a sex discrimination lawsuit brought on behalf of up to 1.5 million current and former female Wal-Mart employees could not be maintained as a class action. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. v. Dukes. This ruling will make it much more difficult for plaintiffs' attorneys to maintain class action lawsuits alleging that a class of employees has been subjected to a "common policy" or practice of discrimination.
In April 2010, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed certification of what would have been the largest employment discrimination class action in history. The class included women employed in numerous positions at any of Wal-Mart's 3,400 retail stores across the United States at any time since December 26, 1998 who had been or may be subjected to the challenged practices. The plaintiffs argued that although Wal-Mart maintained a formal policy prohibiting gender discrimination and had no express corporate policy against the advancement of women, there was a tacit, unwritten common policy in that (1) the discretion local Wal-Mart managers exercised over pay and promotions led to an unlawful disparate impact on women; and (2) Wal-Mart's strong and uniform "corporate culture" permitted bias against women to infect the decisions of local Wal-Mart managers.

Updated: November 14, 2009, 10:25 PM ETSherdog.com
MANCHESTER, England -- Brock Lesnar will not be back in the UFC anytime soon, according to UFC president Dana White.
Speaking with the media after UFC 105, White indicated the heavyweight champion is very ill and will be out of action for the foreseeable future. He went on to state that an interim title match might need to be set up.
White did little to shed light on the specifics of Lesnar's condition, but he did say that the champion has been hospitalized.

A Fine Frenzy
With the album hitting stores in July, Sudol widened her audience by opening shows for Rufus Wainwright that summer. Her tastes expanded while on the road, and by the time A Fine Frenzy returned home, Sudol had become intrigued by the songbooks of Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, and the Talking Heads. Such varied influences convinced her to take more risks with her songwriting, and she issued her sophomore effort, Bomb in the Birdcage, in mid-2009, embracing a wider palette of sounds in the process. A holiday-themed EP, Oh Blue Christmas, followed before the year was up. Pines, Sudol's third studio album, arrived in 2012. ~ Marisa Brown, Rovi

The Secret of Raven Point: A Novel
Title: The Secret of Raven Point: A Novel
Author: Jennifer Vanderbes
KDL Description:
"It's 1943 and World War II is raging when 17-year-old Juliet Dufresne finds out her enlisted brother, Tuck, is missing in action. Desperate to find him, Juliet lies about her age and joins the Army as a nurse, requesting to be sent to the front in Italy where her brother was last seen. Amidst the daily horrors of trying to piece men back together mentally and physically, Juliet searches for information about Tuck. Her journey to find out what happened to Tuck and the bonds she forges with her fellow nurses and doctors are all compellingly portrayed by Vanderbes in this excellent novel."
—Melissa at KDL's Service Center
Amazon Description:
From the award-winning writer of Easter Island comes a powerful story of love, loss, and redemption amid the ruins of war-torn Italy.
1943: When seventeen-year-old Juliet Dufresne receives a cryptic letter from her enlisted brother and then discovers that he's been reported missing in action, she lies about her age and travels to the front lines as an army nurse, determined to find him. Shy and awkward, Juliet is thrust into the bloody chaos of a field hospital, a sprawling encampment north of Rome where she forges new friendships and is increasingly consumed by the plight of her patients. One in particular, Christopher Barnaby, a deserter awaiting court-martial, may hold the answer to her brother's whereabouts—but the trauma of war has left him catatonic. Racing against the clock, Juliet works with an enigmatic young psychiatrist, Dr. Henry Willard, to break Barnaby's silence before the authorities take him away. Plunged into the horrifying depths of one man's memories of combat, Juliet and Willard are forced to plumb the moral nuances of a so-called just war and to face the dangers of their own deepening emotional connection.
In luminous prose, Vanderbes tells the story of one girl's fierce determination to find her brother as she comes of age in a time of unrelenting violence. Haunting, heartbreaking, and ultimately uplifting, The Secret of Raven Point is an unforgettable war saga that captures the experiences of soldiers long after the battles have ended.

This hat was a Christmas gift to our 13 year old son. He wanted a Snapback Lakers hat, he is very happy with his first Snapback hat. He owns several San Diego Chagers fitted hats that he only purchases from Lids. He is a happy young man and I was very pleased with the service being it was the first time I used Lids.com.
Thank you.

Last week the Humane Society of the United States issued a consumer warning about products that were falsely labeled as faux fur being sold at Kohl's.
According to the HSUS, investigators purchased a few different Nicole Lee handbags from Kohls.com in October and November that were advertised as having "faux-fur" trim. After examining them in a lab, it was determined that the fur on the bags was actually real rabbit fur.
Not only is duping customers unethical, it's also illegal under the Federal Trade Commission Act, which prohibits "unfair or deceptive acts or practices" in commerce and carries a civil penalty of up to $16,000 per violation.
Unfortunately for fur-bearing animals, this isn't the first time a major retailer has been busted for misrepresenting fur products.
In 2008, the HSUS found several fur coats made from raccoon dogs that were labeled as faux at Neiman Marcus, along with other products that were mislabeled at Dillard's, Lord & Taylor, Macy's, Saks Inc. and by designer Andrew Marc.
Settlements were eventually reached in 2010 following a lawsuit that resulted in Andrew Marc and Lord & Taylor phasing out and banning raccoon dog fur and to all agreeing to institute new garment labeling and advertising policies. According to the HSUS, fur from raccoon dogs is the most commonly misrepresented type of fur and the kind that's most likely to go without a label.
Other recent investigations have found domestic dog fur in products and other retailers mislabeling real fur as faux, including Century 21, DrJays and Revolve Clothing.
Worse still is that this is still happening despite the passage of the Truth in Fur Labeling Act, which was signed into law in 2010 and requires that fur garments be labeled with the species of animal they're made from and the country they were killed in – closing a loophole that previously had allowed fur-trimmed garments to go unlabeled if the value of the fur was $150 or less.
"Consumers should be aware that animal fur is still being sold as 'faux' by major retailers – in this case Kohl's. We're calling on Kohl's to adopt a fur-free policy and more robust quality control program, and urging consumers to learn how to tell animal fur from fake fur so they can shop with confidence," said Pierre Grzybowski, research and enforcement manager for the HSUS' Fur-Free Campaign.
Millions of animals are killed every year unnecessarily simply for fashion. The industry continues to try and convince consumers that fur as a sustainable, eco-friendly, regulated product, but the truth is it's anything but and uses more toxic chemicals and energy than synthetic alternatives to make.
It also causes intense suffering for fur-bearers who are raised on farms before being violently killed by being gassed, electrocuted, poisoned or having their necks broken. Even the fur that comes from wild animals is the result of suffering at the hands of trappers who use leghold traps, body-crushing Conibear traps and snares, which not only cause suffering for target animals, but also pose a risk to non-target animals, threatened and endangered species, people and pets.
Some continue to support faux-fur products, but our continued demand for these cruelty-free alternatives is clearly helping perpetuate the market for fur, the belief that fur is fashionable and trouble with mislabeling. Until the demand for fur dries up, the industry will continue to push its products and uncaring designers will continue to use it.
Kohl's, meanwhile, has removed the items from its website and issued an apology to roughly 50 customers who bought the fur-lined bags and said it would take them back with no questions asked, in addition to stating that it's ending its relationship with the vendor.
If you would like to support businesses that have taken a public stand against using fur, visit Fur Free Retailer for a global list of compassionate retailers.

thanks for sharing :)
Well, that store is not even in my country.... Shame on them!!!
I have added Kohl's to my list of corporations to avoid. I would never purchase anything with fur, even fake. I just assume that most companies are falsifying their claims, much as Kohl's has been caught doing. Corporations don't give a damn about these animals and that means they won't be getting any of my money.....not now and not in the future.
I have never purchased anything from kohls, and will continue to NOT do so.
That's one of the reasons I never buy fur-like items. Plus, I hate the look of it - you look like you're carrying a dead animal (and probably are).
Kohl's are low class stores and sell rubbish for clothing.
Now I'm glad I never shopped at Kohl's
Mis-labeled? i don't think so. It was done intentionally. I know China has been known to intentionally mis-label furs even to the extreme of using dog fur. This is awful.
Fur and fake fur should just be banned full stop, if it's too hard to control mislabeling then the simplest answer is to ban fake fur as well. I don't mind animal print cotton or the like but it can be very hard to tell the difference between fake fur and real fur, I just don't buy any sort of fur or fake fur to be safe.

A minor fire broke out at the Ghatkopar Metro station on Monday evening raising questions of how safe commuters will be once the Versova-Andheri- Ghatkopar metro system is opened for public use.
"There was a short circuit in the cable of an escalator at Ghatkopar Metro atation around 4.15pm. It was doused by the metro rail staff within 10 minutes. Only one of our fire tender was sent, which did cooling operations after removing the main fuse," informed a fire officer.
However, a spokesperson of Mumbai Metro One Private Limited (MMOPL) had a different version. "It was a minor incident involving only smoke generated due to welding work at the lift shaft during construction activity; no fire reported; the state-of-the-art fire alarm system installed at the metro system got activated which is designed to capture the minutest of the smoke. As part of our stringent Disaster Management Plan, the Fire Brigade was called in as a routine stand-by procedure which is also in line with the international standard. This incident is extremely minor and has no impact on project."
It is estimated that Versova-Andheri-Ghatkopar metro rail service will have a ridership of seven lakh in the first year after it is commissioned.
In a statement issued on Monday, the MMOPL claimed that safety of guests is of paramount importance and the system has been planned to be "most safe" under all possible conditions. The spokesperson added that officials visited and studied metro rail projects around the world. "The idea was to learn and introduce the best practices," he said.

Arizona Fry's Employees Take Federal Challenge to Illegal Union Dues Scheme to DC Appeals Court
Obama Labor Board rubberstamps years of suspected widespread abuse
Washington, DC (April 22, 2015) – Seven Phoenix-area Fry's Food Stores employees have appealed their federal case filed after United Food & Commercial Workers (UFCW) Local 99 union and company officials refused to honor their legal right to refrain from union dues payments.
With free legal assistance from National Right to Work Foundation staff attorneys, Shirley Jones of Mesa; Karen Medley and Elaine Brown of Apache Junction; Kimberly Stewart and Saloomeh Hardy of Queen Creek; and Tommy and Janette Fuentes of Florence – acting for other similarly situated employees – filed federal unfair labor practice charges in December 2009 that spurred the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) to investigate and issue a statewide complaint against UFCW Local 99 union officials.
In the midst of a well-publicized UFCW Local 99 union-threatened strike in November 2009, the employees resigned their UFCW union membership and revoked their dues deduction authorizations – a document used by union officials to automatically withhold dues from employee paychecks – while the UFCW union did not have a contract at their workplaces. Despite the employees' best efforts to halt the dues seizures, Fry's continued to illegally deduct dues from the employee's paychecks for the UFCW union hierarchy.
Under Arizona's popular Right to Work law, no worker can be required to join or pay any money to a union, and under federal labor law, if there is no longer a bargaining agreement in effect between a union and an employer, employees can revoke their dues deduction authorizations at any time.
After a four month long investigation, the Phoenix NLRB regional director initiated a prosecution against UFCW Local 99 union officials for enforcing illegal dues deduction authorizations that do not allow employees to revoke them during contract hiatus periods, contrary to federal law. However, an NLRB administrative law judge rubberstamped the scheme. The NLRB in Washington, D.C. now has upheld the ruling on appeal a second time. The NLRB previously rubberstamped the ruling in a decision later invalidated by the U.S. Supreme Court's holding in Noel Canning that the Board lacked a valid quorum after President Obama's unconstitutional 2012 NLRB "recess appointments."
The seven Fry's employees are again appealing the NRLB's ruling to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
"The Obama NLRB has rubberstamped UFCW Local 99 bosses' years of suspected abuse and violation of thousands of workers' rights across the state of Arizona," said Patrick Semmens, vice president of the National Right to Work Foundation. "We applaud these workers' pursuit for justice on behalf of thousands of workers who may have been illegally forced into paying union dues in violation of Arizona's Right to Work law."

Bieber's image: From boy-next-door to bad boy
MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Justin Bieber's mug shot hints at the boy-next-door image he's carefully crafted over the past several years, with a glistening smile and professionally upswept hair.
But the red jail jumpsuit also visible in the photo tells a different story, one about the singer's recent troubles and emergence as a bad boy. The 19-year-old pop star is facing possible jail time after his arrest in Florida on charges of driving under the influence, resisting arrest and driving with an expired license.
Still, as he has been so many times since achieving stardom at age 15, Bieber was swarmed by crowds of news media and screaming young girls as he left jail Thursday afternoon. He popped through a window of his black SUV in a black hoodie and sunglasses to wave back.
Police said they arrested a bleary-eyed Bieber — smelling of alcohol — after officers saw him drag-racing before dawn Thursday on a palm-lined residential street in Miami Beach, his yellow Lamborghini traveling at nearly twice the speed limit.
He was arrested early Thursday with R&B singer Khalil Amir Sharieff, after police saw them racing two luxury vehicles down the street at 4:09 a.m., with two other vehicles apparently being used to block off the area.
The 19-year-old singer later admitted smoking marijuana, drinking and taking a prescription medication, police said.
Police Chief Ray Martinez said the singer was initially not cooperative when the officer pulled him over. Martinez said the singer also had an expired Georgia driver's license.
Police said Bieber was driving the Lamborghini and Sharieff was driving a Ferrari. Both cars were towed. Police say Bieber was clocked at nearly double the area's 30-mph speed limit near a high school, youth center, golf course, city firehouse and small apartment buildings.
According to the arrest report, Bieber "had slow deliberate movements" and appeared to be in a stupor when the officer ordered him to exit his vehicle. Bieber was arrested after repeatedly refusing to put his hands on his vehicle so the officer could pat him down to look for weapons, the report said. It says he cursed several times at the officer and demanded to know why he was being arrested. At one point, Bieber said to an officer: "What the f--- did I do, why did you stop me?"
Bieber failed a field sobriety test and was taken to the Miami Beach police station for a Breathalyzer, police said. Results haven't been released.
"I think this case will proceed hopefully as any other case would proceed," said Bieber's attorney, Roy Black, whose other celebrity clients have included Rush Limbaugh and William Kennedy Smith.
Under Florida law, people under the age of 21 are considered to be driving under the influence if they have a blood-alcohol content of 0.02 percent or more — a level the 5-foot-9, 140-pound star could reach with one drink.
For a first DUI offense, there is no minimum jail sentence and a maximum of six months, a fine of $250 to $500, and 50 hours of community service. For anyone under 21, there is an automatic six-month license suspension.

"Great quality card stock, excellent print work + incredible design. Were excited to share this with our guests. It fits our personalities to a tee! SO happy with the customer service and quick delivery. We especially enjoyed unwrapping each individual product. Thank you for having such a smooth process in our chaotic planning."
"These invitations turned out beautiful. I was a little nervous about ordering online, plus with this specific invitation, I was unable to order a sample which made me really question how it would turn out. The photo I uploaded turned out good,as clear I think it could have since it was a far away picture, even after I zoomed in a little bit. I asked if they would capitalize the initials in the upper left corner, which they did. I also questioned the ink color about if it was coppery or what it would like on paper, I preferred that it be gold. She actually sent me a proof with marigold ink along with the ink shown on the website, I ended up choosing the marigold. It looked perfect. I love my invitations and am so excited to send them out! They are a great price too, compared to going to invitation shops in person, I saved a lot of money and got exactly what I wanted!"
"This card was the first card I wanted when we first got engaged. It is just beautiful! When we ordered the sample we were very impressed with the quality of the paper and the design was more beautiful in person. After we ordered our invites and they came, I could not be happier they are stunning!! The customer service was awesome too. They reviewed the invitation and they were quick to send them! I got them within a week! I would most definitely recommend this invitation and Wedding Paper Divas to create your invitation!"
"I decided to go with this design for my Hollywood glitz and glam theme wedding. Everyone loved the invitation and it did just what I wanted it to do. I personalized it with white feathers and sparkly ribbon."
"This design is seriously out of this world perfect! I am having my wedding in August and it is a vintage kind of rustic theme, and this invitation meshes So well with the over all feel of my event! I cant wait to sent them out!!! Thank you so much!!"

The fabulous, the good, the bad, and the ugly truth behind the unseen "patterns" of romantic connection.
Eastern sages have known for millennia that certain people seek out each other and are strongly attached. A "karmic connection" is a powerful psychic connection, a tangible chemistry if you will, between two people.
These connections can occur between spouses, parents, best friends, work colleagues, and even between a human and a beloved pet; however, those that occur in a sexual or love relationship can be especially mind-boggling.
There are certain love patterns that are predictable in Chinese astrology. Each of the twelve animal signs form relationship patterns with other signs. When certain signs come together, they can be particularly favorable or unfavorable.

In the
series, new teen in town Bella (1978 born Kristen Stewart) falls for classmate Edward (1986 born Robert Pattinson), a vampire. Eager for a glimpse into their off-screen relationship, fans grapple to find out news of their personal relationship. They scrutinize the actors' body language in paparazzi photos and hungrily buy up celebrity magazines that feature the two.
Chinese Astrology offers an interesting viewpoint on their relationship. Kristen's 1978 Horse birth year and Robert's 1986 Tiger birth year connect the two of them in a harmonious "trine" or "triangle of compatibility" relationship. The Tiger, Horse (and Dog) comprise the trine of ambition and motivation.
Birth signs in trine form a mutual admiration society - they go together like peanut butter and jelly and complement each other in too many ways to list.
Some other famous trine couples include: Arnold Schwarzenegger (Pig) and Maria Shriver (Goat), Tom Cruise (Tiger) and Katie Holmes (Horse), and Rhea Perlman (Rat) and Danny DeVito (Monkey).
Soul Mate Connections
Two people who find themselves in the extraordinary soul mate relationship are truly karmicly connected and share some deep spiritual bonds. Those who connect in this way have the potential to celebrate a golden wedding anniversary.
Classic couples in a soul mate connection include: John Lennon (Dragon) and Yoko Ono (Rooster), Jim Carrey (Ox) and Jenny McCarthy (Rat), Jesse James (Rooster) and Sandra Bullock (Dragon), and Elizabeth Taylor (Monkey) and Richard Burton (Snake).
Mixed Connections
A "good news/bad news" mixed connection is found with those in a "Peach blossom" or "love plum" pattern. Peach blossom connections are responsible for torrid love affairs, unforgettable romances, and romantic "soap operas."
Two people in a peach blossom relationship can be thrust to the top of love's mountain or slain in the valley of heartbreak. Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis fall into this Chinese astrological connection.
Combative Combinations
Signs in Opposition
At best, signs in opposition can "open the money vault" for each other and can be helpful financially. At worst, signs in direct opposition repel each other due to a clash in core personality. When two signs in opposition hook up romantically it doesn't bode well for the union.
Signs in opposition often are initially attracted to each other, but soon suffer tensions and difficulties. Some famous couples in opposition include: Charlie Sheen (Snake) and Denise Richards (Pig) and Whitney Houston (Rabbit) and Bobby Brown (Rooster).
Karmic Combatants
Beyond the oppositions are those signs locked in "karmic combat" with one another. These are the worst-of-the-worst sign combinations. No matter how hard these two try, compromise seems beyond their reach. Samantha Ronson (Snake) and Lindsay Lohan (Tiger), Elvis Presley (Dog) and Priscilla Beaulieu (Rooster) fall into this pattern.

From the Publisher"This volume contains a well-balanced selection of great papers covering fifteen vibrant years of semantic research. My own definition of a classic paper is a paper that is endlessly borrowed by students, but rarely returned. The papers in this volume all share the property that somewhere in the world somebody owns my copy of them. It's great to find them all collected here." Fred Landman, Tel Aviv University
"Truth-conditional semantics has its roots in the work of Frege and analytic philosophy, which was designed to overcome the vagueness, ambiguities, and dubious ontological commitments of natural language. Curiously, this intellectual tradition provided the very foundation for the serious study of meaning in natural language. This collection of seminal articles bears witness to this astonishing development; it should be essential reading for linguists and philosophers who are seriously interested in linguistic meaning." Manfred Krifka, Humboldt University

One of the significant executive compensation reforms in the recently enacted Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) is a requirement that all public companies establish a clawback policy for incentive compensation paid to executive officers. The requirement is not effective until the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issues interpretive guidance. The guidance is expected in the middle of 2011, and companies may need to act quickly once guidance is issued.
Background on Clawbacks
A clawback is a provision or policy that allows a company to demand that an executive repay some or all of a bonus or other compensation previously paid. Typically, a clawback is applicable upon some triggering event, such as a discovery that the executive was involved in the preparation of inaccurate financial statements. Until 2002, the use of clawbacks was fairly limited, although some employment agreements contained "bad boy" clauses that applied when an executive violated a confidentiality, noncompete or similar covenant.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 expanded the prevalence of clawbacks by requiring the CEO and CFO of a public company to repay bonuses and other incentive compensation received after the release of financial information that is later restated because of noncompliance due to misconduct. Since 2002, broader clawbacks applicable to executives beyond the CEO and CFO have become more common, particularly as institutional shareholders and shareholder advocacy groups have emphasized the importance of these policies.

DHS shares privacy expertise in new handbook
Tuesday - 7/6/2010, 6:46pm EDT
By Rachel Stevens
Federal News Radio
Agencies now can have a look at the way the Department of Homeland Security does privacy.
DHS's Privacy Office released their guide to protecting privacy in order to share their approach with other agencies and the public.
DHS says the document "not only describes the wide-ranging activities of the [Privacy] Office, but also explains how the office works to build a privacy culture at DHS."
DHS says it hopes the guide will help others understand its privacy program, which it describes as "one of the leading . . . programs within the federal government."
The Chief Information Officer's Council published DHS's privacy handbook last week on its site in an effort to share it with a broader community.
The guidebook outlines the numerous strategies DHS employs to minimize its impacts on citizens' privacy, such as frequent certifications to ensure that all personally identifiable information (PII) is secure and "accurate, relevant, timely, complete and reduced to the minimum necessary."
"Privacy and information security are closely linked, and strong practices in one area typically support the other," the document states.
The department's efforts also include mandatory trainings on privacy for all employees and contractors. DHS has also made multiple additional training sessions available to instill workers with what they call a "culture of privacy."
In addition to privacy protection policies, the guidebook also spells out the department's response to complaints of privacy breaches. DHS has a dedicated Complaint Tracking System (CTS) that documents "the name of the complainant, type of complaint, and other pertinent data" for each individual grievance. Complaints are then categorized, reviewed and acted upon when necessary.
The tracking systems is completely self-contained and accessible only by DHS's Privacy Office, according to DHS's Privacy Impact Assessment of the system. The PIA states that access to the system must go through an approved encryption scheme, and remote access is strictly-monitored.
"Privacy considerations are woven directly into business processes throughout the department," DHS says. This ensures that "privacy is integrated into decision making from the very beginning."

Brooke Shields teaches her kid about the paparazzi
Filed under: Big Kids, That's Entertainment, Media, Going Green, Celeb Parents, Life & Style, Celeb Kids, Health & Safety: Babies, Work Life, Special Needs
Actress and Blue Lagoon star Brooke Shields knows a thing or two about the paparazzi. Having been a child star and a young person in the constant eye of the media storm , Brooke has taken it upon herself to teach her children how to handle the media.
Brooke's daughter, Rowan, who is five, knows what to do when the paparazzi strikes. Says Rowan, when asked by her mom what to do when the media strikes, "Well, I look straight ahead and I don't look them in the eye." Shields is sorry her daughter even knows what the word 'paparazzi' means.
Shields says that teaching her children to ignore the press is a healthier way of handling them. The actress knows the paparazzi will be there no matter what she does, so better to ignore them than give them what they want, I guess. Shields is also mom to daughter Grier Hammond, two.

Lilly Family Papers
Eastern Kentucky University ArchivesRichmond, Kentucky 40475-3102
This collection is open for research.
[Identification of item], Lilly Family Papers, 1740-1986, University Archives, Eastern Kentucky University, Richmond.
5.85 cubic feet, 9,750 items, 13 boxes, 1 wrapped packet, 1 tube
Grant E. Lilly was born in Estill County on February 27, 1865. He was the son of Colonel Henry Clay Lilly, a circuit judge of the Irvine district and a colonel in the 14th Kentucky Calvary, United States Army, during the Civil War, and Catherine Tracy, a member of a pioneer Pennsylvania family whose descendents moved to Kentucky.
Mr. Lilly received his early education in the private school in Madison County at College Hill and Dr. Elliot's School for Boys at Kirksville. He attended Central University in Richmond and was a honor graduate of the University of Michigan law school in 1889. Upon completion of his studies at Ann Arbor he returned to Irvine where he served as county attorney of Estill County. He had also taught school before receiving his law training. Like his father, Lilly became active in the Republican Party, but around 1900 switched his allegiance to the Democratic Party.
Anna Dudley McGinn Lilly was born on February 27, 1872, in Maysville, Kentucky, the daughter of the Reverend John Bolivar McGinn and Mary Elizabeth Sheppard McGinn. She spent her early life in Versailles, where her father was minister of the Christian church.
On October 19, 1883, Grant E. Lilly and Ann D. McGinn were married in Versailles. They had one daughter, Austin Page, a son John Marion, and a younger son, Grant Lilly, Jr., who died at the age of 12 in 1916. After marrying, the Lillys lived in Richmond where they were involved in numerous civic projects and organizations. Lilly was one of the leaders, along with Dr. Hugh McClellan, Col. C. E. Woods, and Col. N.B. Deatherage, in a local option fight prior to prohibition. Lilly was a member of the Prandennial Club, a charter member of the first Chamber of Commerce organized in Richmond, as well as one of the sponsors of the Richmond Chatauqua. He also was a member of the American Bar Association, the Kentucky Bar Association, and one of the organizers of the Madison Bar Association.
He was owner and editor of three newspapers, the Madisonian, which he founded, the Richmond Climax, and the Kentucky Register which later were merged into the Richmond Daily Register. The Kentucky Register was purchased by Lilly for his wife who was its editor.
In 1918 the Lillys moved to Lexington. Lilly was elected president of the Gas Consumers League which worked for the taxpayers in an effort to reduce the price of natural gas. Lilly ran for mayor of Lexington in 1927 and lost.
Anna Lilly was very interested in Central Kentucky politics and civic affairs. She became affiliated with the Daughters of the American Revolution in 1912 as a member of the Boonesboro Chapter, later transferring her membership to the Lexington Chapter of which she subsequently became regent. Mrs. Lilly was regent of the Kentucky DAR from 1923 to 1926. In 1928, she spearheaded a drive to have the state legislature approve a bill designating "My Old Kentucky Home" as the official state song. The first rendition of Stephen Foster's composition was sung on Sunday, April 15, 1928, at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. The occasion was the dedication of the Kentucky bell in the memorial chapel there. The bell in the carillion at Valley Forge was purchased with $1000 raised by Mrs. Lilly and a committee of the DAR. She was an honorary life regent of both the state and Lexington DAR.
With the advent of women's suffrage in 1920, Mrs. Lilly organized the first Woodrow Wilson Club and in 1932 she founded the Roosevelt Democratic Club of Richmond. Twice she was county associate chairman for the Fayette Club of Kentucky. She actively supported Alben Barkley's several successful senatorial campaigns.
Mrs. Lilly was four times president of the Richmond Women's Club; a member of the Women's Club of Central Kentucky; a charter member of the Madison County Historical Society, the Lexington McDowell Music Club and the Bradford Club of Lexington; and held membership in the Huguenot Society of South Carolina, the Colonial Dames of Kentucky and the state and national officers' club of the DAR. She was organizing president of the Kentucky branch of the Huguenot Society of the Founders of Manakin Towne and of the Paul Revere chapter of the Children of the American Revolution.
During Lexington's sesuqi-centennial celebration, Mrs. Lilly was chairman of the Hall of Fame, which featured an outstanding collection of historical items. She was instrumental in the naming of Henry Clay High School and served on the board of the Henry Clay Memorial Foundation when it began work on making Ashland a state shrine.
She was a member of the board of directors of the Pioneer National Monument Association which acquired the Blue Lick battlefield and other historic spots in Kentucky. She headed the Madison County Liberty Loan and War Savings stamp drive in World War I and served as co-chairman of many Madison Red Cross campaigns. She worked with the NRA in the 1930s and was a honorary member of the VFW during World War II.
Grant Lilly died January 5, 1940, and Anna D. Lilly died July 30, 1948. Both are buried at the Richmond cemetery.
The Lilly Papers represent the second shipment of papers from Austin P. Lilly. These papers differ from the first shipment in that they are primarily the personal papers of Miss Lilly, many of them her personal collection although some documents are from other members of the extended family. Other shipments will follow and will be processed accordingly.
Some rudimentary organization was present when the papers arrived. Many items were labeled which greatly facilitated the processing of the collection. The table of contents of the first shipment was followed as far as was practical although some new categories were added. Many items were processed in the Subject Series because of the small size of the units or because they were unique.
The Biographical Sketch from the Lilly Family Collection (inventory #12) has been copied for use here. For the chronology please see that volume. It will be necessary for researchers to use each inventory to avoid overlooking valuable data.
Copyright has not been assigned to Eastern Kentucky University.
The Correspondence Series consists of thirteen folders containing letters, invitations, funeral notices, and calling cards sent to the McGinn/Lilly family. Some of the earliest correspondence is of the Civil War era. The most recent is in the 1980s. Many letters are those of Grant E. Lilly to his children and contain drawings and riddles. The series has been divided by decade after 1900 and is arranged chronologically within each folder. Some items are copies or photocopies. Undated items are filed in a separate folder. Envelopes have been reserved. Items included in the series are dated 1780-1986.
This series contains information on families related to Anna D. Lilly and Grant E. Lilly. Each family name is filed in a separate folder. Some contain genealogical charts. These folders are filed alphabetically within the series. This information was collected almost exclusively by Anna D. Lilly.
This series consists of four folders. These contain deeds, wills, maps of land bought by the Lilly family, and wills. Dates are 1869-1923.
This series consists of over two boxes of material which range from campaign posters to silk quilt pieces. Included in this series are recipes, subjects for sermons, and letterhead stationery from many of the Lilly enterprises.
The Photograph Series includes photographs of individuals in the Lilly family and photographs of the members together. Also included are photographs of the extended family, friends, homes they lived in, and many photographs of their pets. The earliest photograph is of Mrs. Grant E. Lilly's mother, Mary Elizabeth Sheppard McGinn, when she was sixteen years old. The latest photographs are of Miss Austin Lilly in 1972.
The Publications Series contains 3 1/2 boxes of materials. Items are arranged alphabetically and similar publications are then arranged chronoligically. These publications include journals, brochures, DAR yearbooks, theatre programs, commencement programs, alumni information from the University of Kentucky, programs from events attended by the Lilly family, andother printed material.
This series consists of six scrapbooks. Full descriptions of each follows in the inventory. Dates are 1889-1955.
Six small units make up the subject series. They are: Certificates, Financial, Newsclippings, Patent, Poetry, and Speeches and Reports. These contain thirteen certificates which are listed in the inventory, cancelled checks and receipts, correspondence and material related to a patent, newsclippings of the Lilly family, the whimsical and serious poetry of Anna D. Lilly, and speeches and reports given by her. Dates are 1856-1983.
