Necklace & Bracelet Clasp Types
Lobster Claw Clasp: As a traditional clasp style found in bracelets and necklaces, the lobster claw is generally reserved for heavier styles that may need added strength. The closure's shape is more oblong, similar to a teardrop shape, and is controlled by a tip that opens and closes the spring in the clasp. This type is also considered a more expensive finding that can add to the overall value of the jewelry piece.
Magnetic Clasp: The popularity of the magnetic clasp has greatly increased in recent years. It is a quick and easy way to secure jewelry while not having to fuss with a tiny clasp, which can be difficult if you have long fingernails, arthritic hands or other mobility challenges. A magnetic clasp relies on a strong internal magnet that works to pull both ends of the clasp together. In most cases, a magnetic clasp is used for light to medium weight jewelry pieces that do not put excessive stress on the magnet.
Slide Insert Clasp: This type of clasp is exactly as it sounds. With a box-like shape that is hollow on the inside, the wearer will slide the nearly-flat tab into the box until it clicks, indicating a secure closure. On some jewelry, a slide insert clasp will be accompanied by a side safety catch, which adds strength and security to the clasp. Although this type of clasp is found on both bracelets and necklaces, it is particularly popular on bracelet styles. These types of clasps are often reserved for more expensive jewelry.
Spring Ring Clasp: One of the most common closure types, the spring ring clasp is typically used for light to medium weight bracelets or necklaces. It is round in its design and features a small tip which controls the opening and closing of the spring. The circle then closes around another smaller loop or link at the other end of the strand.
Toggle Clasp: A toggle clasp is a narrow piece of metal, usually designed in the shape of a bar, which is then pushed through a circular ring to act as a fastener. Unlike the lobster claw or spring ring clasps, a toggle clasp is not controlled by a spring. The pretty design is less secure than other closure types, but is usually meant to be a big part of the design and is meant to "show". The clasp is an attractive way to secure a chunkier link bracelet or necklace.
Sterling silver, also called fine silver, is a beautifully lustrous cool-toned precious metal favored in fine jewelry among other products. The most reflective of all metals (excluding mercury), sterling silver looks stunning by itself and brings out the best hues in an array of colorful gemstones.
Sterling silver can be polished to a higher sheen than platinum. In fact, Ag, the chemical symbol for silver, comes from a word that means "white and shining." The surface of silver can boast that shiny, polished appearance, or can be brushed, satin, matte, sandblasted, antiqued or oxidized (chemically blackened).
In order to be called sterling silver, a metal must be made up of a minimum of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% alloy (meaning other metals), including but not limited to copper and nickel. The alloy is added to pure silver to make the metal more durable, tougher and harder. Sterling silver is designated a fineness of "925." Pieces with sterling silver may be marked "sterling."
Finishes on Sterling Silver
Finishing, or plating, is a common treatment with sterling silver. Popular types of plating are rhodium plating, gold plating and anti-tarnish plating. Plating is used to extend the life and sheen of the jewelry. After sizing or buffing a piece of jewelry with a machine, it must be re-plated to restore the finish.
Caring for Sterling Silver
Sterling silver becomes tarnished as the result of a natural chemical process that occurs when sterling silver is exposed to chemicals in the air, rubber, wool and latex. Humidity also plays a role in accelerating tarnishing. It's easy to keep your sterling silver sparkling, though, by taking a few steps to prevent tarnish and other wear and tear.
Peridot features a lively yellow-green color that is transparent with an oily luster. The iron that creates peridot's color is an integral part of its structure, so the gem is only found in various shades of green. It is most prized in lime hues, but Italian peridot is a rich olive color and popular American peridot is a beautiful light yellow-green. The Romans called peridot "evening emerald" because its exquisite green color was said to glow at night. This is perhaps because the stone exhibits double refraction, meaning that when looking through the stone, objects appear double. So when looking into a faceted peridot, the number of bottom facets appears to be double the actual number, creating a glittering sensation.
Pronounced PEAR-A-DOE, the word "peridot" comes from the French word meaning "gem." It is the gem variety of the mineral olivine and ranks a 6.5-7.0 on the Mohs Scale.
Born in cauldrons of fire, peridot is considered the "volcanic gem," since small crystals of it are often found in the rocks created by volcanoes. In fact, Hawaiian legend called peridot the divine tears wept by Pele, goddess of the volcano. The island of Oahu even has beaches made out of olivine grains, but they are much too small to cut into peridot. Samples of the gem also have been discovered in meteorites that have fallen to Earth, many of which are more than a billion years old.
Peridot traces its jewelry roots to 3,500 years ago. The stone was first mined by the ancient Egyptians on the volcanic island of Zebargad in the Red Sea. Known as the "serpent isle," it was infested with poisonous snakes that interfered with mining activity until one Pharaoh had them all driven into the sea. Today, Native Americans mine most peridot on the San Carlos Reservation in Arizona. Interestingly, almost all peridot sold in Hawaii is from Arizona, despite the fact that peridot is produced by Hawaii's volcanoes. The gemstone is also found in Norway, Brazil, China, Egypt, Italy, Myanmar and Sri Lanka. An exciting new deposit was discovered in Pakistan in 1994, yielding some of the finest peridot ever seen, including one stone that weighed more than 300.00ct.
Peridot is among the oldest known stones and has been mined as a gem for thousands of years. As early as 1575 to 1350 B.C., the ancient Egyptians used peridot beads in their ceremonial jewelry. In fact, it is believed the stone was one of the favorite gems of Cleopatra and that some of the "emeralds" she wore were actually peridot.
Ancient Egyptians also carved small drinking vessels out of large chunks of peridot. Priests would drink soma from them in rituals, believing the soma would put them in touch with the nature goddess, Isis. Legend has it that King Soloman traded cedar trees from Lebanon for 12 soma drinking cups and 144 liters of soma. The Egyptians made this trade for ramp logs to build their pyramids at Gisa, while King Soloman was said to have been enlightened by drinking soma from the peridot cups. Today, Mexican hill tribes still drink soma from green glazed cups to put them in touch with nature and their ancestors' spirits. Additionally, some Native American Indians in Arizona use tea made from peyote ground with peridot crystals in their rituals.
Peridot has also been important to other cultures throughout history. Late in the Ottoman Empire (1300 to 1900), peridot was a highly prized gem and Turkish Sultans amassed some of the world's largest collections of the gemstone. It is mentioned in the Bible under the name of "chrysolite," and was used to decorate medieval churches with samples that were most likely carried back to Europe by the Crusaders. Large stones weighing more than 200.00ct adorn the Shrine of the Three Magi at the Cologne Cathedral in Germany.
Throughout the ages, peridot has been believed to hold mystical powers of protection and healing. The ancients regarded the stone as a symbol of the sun and wore it in amulets to prevent nightmares and drive away evil spirits. It was even favored by pirates to protect them against evil. Peridot was said to be useful for calming raging angers, curing nervous afflictions and promoting quiet sleep. It was also used as a medical remedy to treat asthma and ward off fevers. Peridot was also believed to strengthen any medicine drunk from goblets carved from the stone. South American Shamans use peridot to ward off snakebites and the evil spirits who have taken the form of mosquitoes who bring the sleeping sickness. They also say the heating of magic mushroom tea by peridot takes them on trips to the ancestor heavens.
Today, peridot is believed to bring the wearer success, peace and good luck. To be most powerful, it is said that the stone should be mounted in gold and surrounded with small diamonds. With powers that are thought to bring protection and health, modern folklore also says it can be used to attract love and calm anger while soothing nerves and dispelling negative emotions. The gem is believed to protect the wearer from bad dreams when set in gold.
Peridot is considered the birthstone of August. Given as a symbol of fame, dignity and protection, this gem is also traditionally given to couples celebrating their 16th wedding anniversaries.

They call it the Valley of the Sun-- and with good reason. In a city with over 300 days of sunshine per year, between the North Mountain and the South Mountain, Phoenix couldn't possibly fit that descriptor better. It also speaks to Phoenix residents in a metaphorical way, too. Not long after moving here, many do feel they've moved into a place where the sun shines a little brighter. This is the home of some of America's most solvent companies, including Best Western and U-Haul International. With its growing economy, and ongoing new construction, a wealth of opportunity will open up when you make the move West, to Phoenix, the city at the intersection of the Salt and Gila Rivers.
Phoenix is fascinating to explore because of its distinctive neighborhoods and towns-- you won't mistake Glendale for Scottsdale, that's for sure. Here's a primer on what to expect as you tour your new home. Glendale is where the metropolitan area comes out for football, the Cardinals. Scottsdale is where you'll find yourself on a Saturday night, trying the newest, hottest bar in the city, and possibly the state. Mesa, Chandler, and Gilbert make great homes for young families, with good schools and a family-oriented atmosphere. North Valley is the city's "scenic route," where life moves a little slower in the classic Southwestern towns north of Phoenix.
Phoenix is known for some of the best museums west of the Mississippi. Take a weekend or two and see them all-- from the Native American Heard Museum, which highlights the artistic and cultural innovation of Arizona's oldest peoples, to the Scottsdale Museum of Modern Art, which features up-to-the-minute contemporary art. Smaller, off-the-wall museums abound too. Ever heard of the Firefighting Museum? Neither have we-- but it can't be a bad way to spend an afternoon. How about the Musical Instrument Museum? Phoenix may not be a huge city, but it has a cultural breadth and depth you'd be hard-pressed to find anywhere else.
During the cooler months of the year, Phoenix-Mesa morphs into an outdoor paradise. Celebrate your freedom from the air conditioner by going for a hike up Camelback or South Mountain. For a more refined experience of the outdoors, visit the Desert Botanical Garden, a conservancy of the Southwest's brilliant flora.
New Home Source is proud to welcome you to the Valley of the Sun. Let us help you find a new home in Phoenix. We let you search through new home communities and browse individual listings of all new homes in Phoenix.
Welcome to NewHomeSource, the authority on Phoenix new houses and new homes in Mesa.

Some random thoughts about HEX have been bugging me, so I've finally decided to register here and bug other people with it
One obvious thought: If any of the animals in HEX's system gets sick... would HEX be able to detect it and fix it, i.e. does HEX have a virus scanner?
Weird thought: Does HEX come with a "spell checker"? What if autocorrect is enabled?
And lastly: HEX seems to be able to interface with the discworld in a way that is exciting and disturbing: HEX is capable of adding new components to itself, which implies that HEX is capable of detaching an animal (like some ants or bees) and send them away on an errand. However, some added components are quite large, requiring an animal larger than ant or bee to transport them. How far would this capability to send a part of HEX into the world stretch? If HEX is capable of influencing small animals so that they bring stuff, where is the limit?
Would HEX be capable of influencing larger events in the Discworld, by deriving that some small event can influence larger things? Would HEX be able to derive that this is possible, from having observed that its output influences larger events, like when The Lady influenced HEX's output to miscalculate the coordinates for Rincewind's teleportation?

He sent me pictures and a note: "The little guy got confused when mom hurried off at my approach. He just stumbled around wailing while I tried to take pix. Jesse (his dog) was beside herself, barking and hanging out the truck window while the little guy cried and cried. Mom started back several times only to turn away when she got too close to me. At one point the little guy came toward me, probably thinking I was his mom. Eventually mom got back close enough and the little guy followered her as they galumphed off across the savanna."
No bears or naturalists were harmed in this encounter.

"The Precocious Penguin Save the Dates (in black) were a big hit with our guests and a fun and whimsical way to share our happy wedding date news! Would be fun for wedding paper divas to expand the Precious Penguins pattern to other card/invitation types (i.e. thank yous, rehearsal dinner/shower invites, etc.)"
"Upon ordering my save the dates, they were delivered on my doorsrep a whole week prior to the estimated arrival date. I couldn't be more satisfied. I adore the sweet penguins on the front. I went with the regular matte cardstock and I wish I had gone with the pearl shimmer. Next time I place an order, I will go with pearl shimmer on the invitations."
"I received many compliments on the tea rose save the dates. Many of the comments I received involved "elegant" and "simple and romantic". They really turned out great. I cannot say enough about the customer service department of Wedding Paper Divas. Everyone I have dealt with has been awesome. I have already recommended to several others they should use Wedding Paper Divas the next time they need invites or anything for an event/party."
"I love my precocious penguins! They fit perfectly with our winter wedding theme, and I love that I was able to customize the border color (I picked "coast" which is more like the blue that I wanted). I have gotten nothing but compliments. LOVE EM!"
"Just received my save the dates. I am so impressed with them! The paper is better than I thought and so is the printing. I am so impressed with the customer service, I put the wrong shipping address in and emailed customer service and they fixed it and responded back within the hour. Also, I changed the font and wanted it darker and when the proof was sent, the designer changed it right away and got it perfect (responses were all returned and fixed same day). AND they came quicker than I expected. I'm so happy I went with weddingpaperdivas. I can't wait to order the invitations now!"

Kneeling Female Figure
Attributing a specific piece of ritual African art to a particular artist is seldom possible, in part because the artists often perpetuated the myth that the objects were not the work of human beings, and also because the original collectors of these pieces rarely inquired about the artists' names. This piece, however, has been attributed to Areogun of Osi, one of the most prominent Yoruba artists of the twentieth century. His distinctive style is identifiable in the figure's elaborate openwork headdress, proportionally large ears, and curved breasts.
Kneeling female figures, often nude, are common in Yoruba religious art. In this pose, the figure represents a supplicant before the orisha, or deity, on whose altar it is placed. The image beautifies the altar and thereby honors orisha.
- Culture: Yoruba
- Artist: Areogun of Osi, ca. 1880-1954
- Medium: Wood
- Place Made: Osi-Ilorin, Kwara State, Nigeria
- Dates: late 19th or early 20th century
- Dimensions: 8 1/2 x 2 x 2 1/2 in. (21.6 x 5.1 x 6.4 cm) (show scale)

When you look back at 1981, it wasn't really that bad a time in Corvette history. The Corvette Team was designing and engineering the upcoming, all-new C4; production had shifted from the venerable St. Louis Assembly Plant to a more modern facility near Bowling Green, Kentucky; and Bloomington Gold was still being held at the old McLean County (Illinois) Fairgrounds on the east side of Bloomington.
And if you had the extra cash over what a factory Vette cost, you could get a specially styled and tuned one that benefited from the touch of none other than Zora Arkus Duntov. One of Zora's consulting deals following his retirement from GM was with American Custom Industries (ACI) in Sylvania, Ohio. ACI was-and still is-a manufacturer of Corvette parts, including fiberglass body parts, and they had an idea: Why not make the ultimate Corvette, based on the then-current-production C3 platform, with technical help from Zora?
So was born the Duntov Turbo Corvette, planned both as a coupe and a convertible. Starting with a new C3, the production body was replaced by one fitted with wider front fenders, rear quarter-panels, and doors-widening the car by 6 inches. That width was needed to house a set of modular aluminum Weld wheels wearing Goodyear's top performance tire of the time: the Wingfoot.
Duntov Turbo convertibles weren't done as a quick-and-dirty, chop-off-the-stock-roof, then-drop-in-a-used-drop-top conversion. ACI used new convertible top assemblies and took the time to fit them right onto the body, which-like the coupe-also sported the wider fenders, doors, and quarters.
Under the louvered hood came the real story: a turbocharged V-8. In an age where performance was measured by how cars of the past could beat the current year's offerings, ACI and Zora came up with a Martin turbocharger system that provided plenty of reliable additional power-as much as 70 more horsepower out of the small-block (an L48 350, or a 305 for California-only use). For reliability's sake, a water-injection system was added to prevent detonation caused by that era's low-octane gasolines. Downstream, transmissions included the choice of a Turbo 350 or a four-speed, with Posi-traction nestled inside the upgraded independent rear suspension.
The car you see here is one the earliest Duntov Turbos-the tenth one built. It's a car that you definitely don't see every day. "That's for sure," current co-owner Jeffrey Griggs says from his Emerson, New Jersey, home. "I came across that car, believe it or not, on eBay, and when I saw it, I fell in love with it. The looks, the style of it, and being an '81 convertible was just so unique."
Jeffrey has owned plenty of other Vettes over the years, and he's kept his eye out for the "distinctive" ones. "I've owned one of those Eckler Corvette station wagons over the years and one of those Corvette pickup trucks. I just go for odd Corvettes, and when I saw the Duntov, I remembered the ads for it back in 1981," he says.

Mississiippi State men's basketball coach Rick Ray made sure he let it be known how he felt about the student involvement in Saturday's game against Ole Miss.
After shaking hands with the Rebels, Ray came over to the student section, pointed and celebrated with the same students he asked to come.
It paid off as the Bulldogs (8-20, 3-13) outlasted in-state rival Ole Miss (21-8, 10-6) 73-67 inside Humphrey Coliseum.
"I really appreciated the fan support, especially from the student body population," Ray said. "I can't tell you how much energy and enthusiasm our guys had for that basketball game when they saw the student body population filled up like that."
Mississippi State came into the game losing its last 13 games and dropping the first decision to the Rebels in Oxford.
"I'm happy for our guys," Ray said. "I can handle the negativity of being 0-2 against Ole Miss, but I don't know if our guys, being that fragile, can handle that."
MSU junior forward Colin Borchert led the Bulldogs with a career-high 21 points.
"Colin was huge for us," Ray said. "(He) made some big 3s, but more importantly, he got some driving opportunities and made some plays in the motion offense."
Borchert knocked down back-to-back 3-pointers to give the Bulldogs a 7-5 lead with 16:48 left in the opening half.
The Rebels answered with a 10-4 run to back the lead at 15-9 with 13:27 remaining in the first half. MSU outscored Ole Miss 25-15 to end the half and take a 34-30 lead into the locker room.
The Rebels came into the game needing a win to keep their NCCA Tournament hopes alive.
"I thought it was right from the jump, Mississippi State was playing like the team that was fighting for their NCAA Tournament lives," Ole Miss head coach Andy Kennedy said. "I have no explanation for that. They deserved to win and we deserved to lose."
The Bulldogs stretched their lead to 45-36 after opening the second half on a11-6 run to open the second half.
MSU led 63-49 with 4:20 left in the game. The Rebels scored the next five points in one trip down the floor after Nick Williams made a layup and technical foul by Roquez Johnson, who was playing in his first game since being suspended for three games, led to a Marshall Henderson 3-pointer to make it 63-54.
"Henderson is a unique kid in college basketball, because there's a lot of people that can make shots spotting up, but there's not very many who can shoot the ball off the cut like he can," Ray said.
Henderson finished the game with 16 points after scoring 31 in the first meeting. He was only 4-of-19 from the field and 3-of-18 from behind the 3-point line.
"We went out, we all played together and we played hard," MSU junior guard Jalen Steele said. "To add on to that, we had everybody into it. The coaches were into it, the crowd was definitely into it. It really felt good."
Ole Miss got a layup from Murphy Holloway to make it 63-56. The Bulldogs answered with two free throws to make it 65-56 with 2:21 left in the game.
"We just found away," Ray said. "It seemed like that last 3:40 lasted longer than the whole second half combined. I just wanted the clock to go, (and) to go."
The Rebels didn't go away and cut lead down to four at 71-67 after Henderson hit another 3-pointer with 14 seconds left.
Borchert knocked down two free throws to ice the game for MSU.
"Coach always tell me 'once you hit a couple of 3s, they are going to be flying out on you, so just up fake and go to the rim,'" Borchert said. "I just listened to the coach."
Borchert was 7-of-10 from field goal range and 3-of-4 from behind the 3-point line.
Holloway led Ole Miss with 22 points.
MSU freshman forward and Starkville native Gavin Ware had 12 points and Steele and Johnson each had 10 points.
"It was big," Steele said of getting Johnson back. "It seemed like when he came back he didn't miss a step. He came back being aggressive."
The Bulldogs are back in action Wednesday when they travel to South Carolina for a 6 p.m. tipoff. MSU beat the Gamecocks 56-54 in the first SEC game of the season.

Pardon my Klatchian, but WTF?!
Modern Jason finds himself naked in Atlantis, where everyone seems to speak the same language as him. He meets Pythagoras and Hercules (???), falls in love with Doctor Bashir's daughter, Ariadne and kills the Minotaur while helping a girl named Helen.
The Beeb obviously wanted something to replace Merlin and came up with this mish-mash of pseudo Greek mythology by taking everything they know about the Greeks, mincing it all up and then putting it back together with duct tape.
Oddly enough - I have the feeling it's going to be really, really popular.
I don't think I'll bother.

I liked it, and will probably keep on watching, BUT, they have the same disease that all TV shows have (IMHO) - loud BGM and too fast dialogue.
Mix those two together, and I missed half of what was said.
I love Joss, but if he walked into my office now, I'd probably give him a little slap!

NXT-G Programming Guide
Some details:
1. The book covers the NXT-G programming environment that is provided with both the retail and the educational versions of the kit.
2. The book does NOT cover the RoboCenter or the RoboEducator tutorials that are included in the software.
3. All the blocks are covered from all 3 palettes, including small sample programs showing you how to use them.
4. Wiring is covered - I've included an entire chapter devoted to the concept of using these drag-and-drop wires that I'm hoping teachers and coaches will find useful.
5. Creating My Blocks is also covered quickly and with a small sample program.
6. There is an NXT robot included in the Appendix and the directions are in CAD format - my photos were converted by Jonathan Daudelin and I owe him some thanks for doing that for me. This robot can be used to test the programs in the book.
7. The concept of Pseudo Code (well, at least MY concept of it) is introduced and I show how it can be used to develop an outline of a program before you start dropping blocks.
... tons of screenshots of the software are included, too.

sounds like a mandatory thing to possess.
How do you notate the pseudo-code?
Are you using UML or some other modelling language?
- Mar 9, 2007, 12:45:00 AM
- Jim Kelly said...
I introduce Pseudo code as a sort-of "conversation" with your robot. Remember, this book is mainly for kids and teachers and readers unfamiliar with programming in general, so I'm writing for that audience.
An example:
Me: Robot, I want you to move forward 30 rotations and stop.
Me: Robot, next, I want you to take a Light reading.
This then is used to help determine which blocks will be used... MOVE, LIGHT SENSOR, STOP, etc...
The examples in the book are more complex, but I hope this gives you the general idea. I also use the pseudo code concept to explain things like looping, Logic, Switch blocks, etc...

- Matthias Paul Scholz said...
Ah, I see.
Interesting approach.
How are your experiences in regard to the feasibility for large and complex programs? One would imagine that this kind of pseudo code tends to become somewhat hard to follow in these cases - does it?
- Mar 9, 2007, 3:18:00 AM
- Jim Kelly said...
Well, it was a choice between "conversational"-type pseudo code or something like flow charting. I've never really liked flow charting (personal preference) but I do know it has advantages...
My choice for providing pseudo code in readable English-like-sentences does allow for some complexity. Just try it - take a complex NXT-G program and walk through it, describing what the blocks are telling the robot what to do. Now, just do the reverse, decide what you want your robot to do and put it down in regular language. There may be situations where this isn't easy, but overall I hope teaching those who are unfamiliar with programming using this method will work. We'll see...

this looks like a book that might help me. as soon as it comes up for sale i will get a copy. Some of use that are used to building technic but just got on the mindstorms programing kick need help. Some us are old and old dogs can learn new tricks it just takes us longer.
thank you Jim Kelly

I have done a great deal of embedded systems programming over the last 20 years or so (Embedded Systems Engineer). I have found that finite state machines are absolutely THE best way to conceptualize, design, and implement most software (especially "control" software for robotics). Soon (Xmas 2007), my son and I will be doing the Lego NXT-G thing together; However, as a software engineer, I have always really disliked the G language (I do use LabWindows CVI for instrument control/testing).
So, do you have any ideas of how to design NXT software with state machines BUT implement designs in G? I always use original Harel Statecharts - NOT the UML's version.
I have ordered your book on Amazon in any case (because of its great reviews).
Soon to be "G-ing",

The annual meeting of the Fire Council win tie held at headquarters next Tuesday evening, instead of on Wednesday evemiik;, as these meetings are usuallv held. The Viilage Board of Trustees at their meetiig Friday evening decided to charge the various departments tf the Village, including the Fire Depart-' ment, fur electric light consumed. This is probably a matter of business judgment, but it will fie necessary if this is to be dune for the Fire Depart¬ ment to secure more money in the budjjet, as the amount asked for by the Department was already figured down tn a minimum. Hoard of Trade The regular meeting and annual smoker was held Wednesday evening, I'resider.t Hibbard in the chair. .-Secretary Cheshire reported receipt of a communication from Supervisor Craft in which he said he had noticed tbe bad condition of N. Main St. and would see what repairs could be made. Report waa made that the b.ll which the Bo»rd had endorsed, at the request of P'rank A. Wood, County Sealer of weights and measures, had become a law. The bill provides tbat all cans, cartons, etc., containing foodstufTa must state on the outside thereof tha net weight of the article contained. Douglas Lawrence brought up the question of the inhumane slaughter of dogs throughout the villlage, and he thought the Review should be upheld in its fight against this. The matter was discussed at length, and the mem¬ bers seemed unanimous in the opinion that the protest should be upheld. Considerable discussion was given the subject of a Forum, and ,in order to get the project under way, the Board proposes to immediately start a course of lectures on varioua subjects, with well-known speakers. An efifort will be made to have the Rev. Madison C. Peters address the Board at tbe next meeting, Mr. Peters having signified a willingnesa to do so. The address will be upon "The High (.'oat of Living." President Hibbard was empowered to arrange for a lecture on "Panama," with etereopticnn views, to be given in about two weeks. The public will be invited to all theae lectures. Clarence Edwards called attention to the F'reeport Park Commisaion and the good it was doing in endeavoring to maintain the park north of the railroad trackii, and it mas decided to iaaue subscription list among the mem¬ bers in an endeavor to secure a sub¬ stantial amount for this purpose. The merting that waa to bave been held at the bome of Mrs. C. £. Tboaaas, 32 Lexington Avenue, last Friday for tbe purpose of urganizinK the Girl Pioneers was postponed until Tharsday of tbia week. Mrs. Thomaa would be glad to receive any applies- tions for membership and she informa the Review reporter that Miss LIna Beard of Floabing, tbe founder of tha Pioneers, baa promised to viait Free- port in tlia near future and will be very glad to meet tbe parenta and explain tbe objecta of tbe organ^fcation. •1

DESTIN — The shopping center that changed the face of Destin is about to turn 10 years old.
Destin Commons opened Nov. 6, 2003. In the following 10 years, the center has become one of the most popular destinations along the Emerald Coast for locals and tourists alike.
"People recognize the property and what's going on here as a great location," said Bob Perry, general manager of Destin Commons. "We're basically at First and Main as would be in any other big city or small town. This is the place where retailers want to be. If you're going to put a store in Destin, it would make sense for them to come here.
"One of the beauties of where we are right now compared to 10 years ago is we are 100 percent leased on our retail stores," Perry added. "We are 95 percent leased in our office buildings. Even after a difficult economy in 2009 and 2010, we are at record levels of both sides and feeling very comfortable."
Destin Commons has become an important part of the local economy. Between the stores, restaurants, support staff and the businesses that have office space, an estimated 700 people work there.
That figure is expected to grow by 150 to 200 when the expansion is completed next year.
More than that, the center has become part of the community.
Bluewater Bay resident Pattie Brown, who was shopping at Destin Commons last week, said it is a popular destination for her and her family.
"It's convenient. The movie theater, the little places to eat, little places to shop," Brown said. "It's just great to be outside."
Ryan Cox, general manager of Bass Pro Shops, said Okaloosa County markets itself as a family destination and Destin Commons is designed to appeal to that market.
"It's a great center," Cox said. "It's very well maintained. It has a great occupancy rate with the stores. It's definitely a destination spot for tourists. There's a lot of people that I meet every day that say, 'I come to town every year at this time and I make my trip to the Commons every year.'
"The whole center has become a destination location in Destin," he added.
Destin Commons was developed as a partnership between Legendary Inc. and Turnberry Associates, a Miami-based real estate developer.
Legendary owner Peter Bos designed Destin Commons in 1995 and tried unsuccessfully for years to bring national tenants to the development.
That led him to partner with Turnberry Associates, which had developed a number of large-scale shopping centers.
"Peter is a visionary. He can see the future and come up with concepts and ideas," Perry said.
The center was designed to have a timeless look, and it and has inspired other developments to have similar designs. Pier Park in Panama City Beach, which opened in 2007, has been compared to Destin Commons, and Perry said developers of a shopping center in Mississippi being built now have said it is modeled off Destin Commons.
"In terms of what gets built in Florida and what gets built as an open-air center, this is a great design," Perry said.
"The reason the center looks like it could have been built yesterday is we go out of our way to maintain this," Perry added. "It's a good looking center. We are pressure washing every inch of sidewalk at least once a week, we keep buildings painted, we keep the light poles maintained — all of the little things it takes to make a center not feel old even as it ages."
