Ready to rock! Mischa Barton slips into a psychedelic print for second weekend of Coachella
It's weekend two of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, and Mischa Barton couldn't resist the music any longer.
The 27-year-old arrived to the Indio, California desert on Friday showing her excitement for the event.
Donning a psychedelic printed dress, the former OC star was ready to rock.
Set for festival: Mischa Barton attended the second weekend of Coachella music festival on Friday with a male friend, both opting for black and white ensembles
Though the actress debuted a fuller figure as of late, her curve-hugging dress was a more flattering choice.
Black and silver squares and heptagons decorated the otherwise white dress.
Adding a tough edge to the outfit, Mischa wore black, laced ankle boots that covered her ankles.
Black and white all over: The OC actress laced up in boots and donned a curve-hugging printed dress
Figure flatterer: The 27-year-old wore an outfit more complimentary to her new, fuller figure than others she has been spotted in as of late
A little uncomfortable? Mischa tugged on her dress while her hair hid most of her face
She draped a loose black blazer over her shoulders, and at one point tied it around her waist.
Mischa darkened her eyebrows for the event, giving her a more mature, defined look.
A bold red lip brightened her face, most of which hid behind her centre-parted hair.
Posh festival goer: Jessica Alba tried her hand at concert attire in a long black skirt, draped black sweater, black chunky-heeled boots and a multi-coloured fabric cross-body bag
Cute couple: Paris Hilton glowed in a turquoise snake-print dress next to model boyfriend River Viiperi
Flower power: Actress Hayley Hasselhoff showed off her gorgeous alabaster skin and bleach blonde hair in a floral frock reminiscent of the '90s
Like father, like son: Gene Simmons' son Nick carried on the rocker torch at the music festival, wearing an Assassin of Youth tank under an unbuttoned blue shirt
With his clique: The 24-year-old Gene Simmons Family Jewels star protectively placed his arms around his friends as they crossed the field
The actress was among celebrities Jessica Alba, socialite Paris Hilton, actress Hayley Hasselhoff and Gene Simmons' son Nick.
The second weekend of the music festival kicked off with bands such as the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Modest Mouse, Johnny Marr, Jake Bugg, Passion Pit, Tegan and Sara, Of Monsters and Men, Purity Ring, Grinderman and Alt-J.
Born to perform: Johnny Marr rocked out on the Mojave stage during the second weekend of the festival
Sing it out: English singer-songwriter Jake Bugg took to the stage in a blue button-down with distressed denim
Phoenix and Red Hot Chili Peppers will hit the stage for a second time on Saturday and Sunday, respectively.
The inaugural Coachella took place in 1999 but took off in full force in 2001.
Soak it up: Fans were sprayed with water at the Empire Polo Club, clearly enjoying the cool mist
Super soaker: Ariel Falth sprayed the crowd while wearing a bandeau top, vest and cut-off shorts
Linked in: Fans whipped out their smart phones to take live footage of the performances
Sea of people: Thousands crowded together to enjoy the music
Rocker chick: Singer/songwriter Emily Haines of Metric jammed out with a tambourine while wearing a pile of chains

text: Benefits Ethics for Retirement Plan Professionals By Rebecca Moore email@example.com | October 29, 2012 Page 1 of 2 View Full Article October 29, 2012 (PLANSPONSOR.com) – When considering ethical behavior, the question is not "what would you do?" but "what should you do?" Speaking at the ASPPA Annual Conference, Dr. Bruce Weinstein, contributor to Bloomberg Businessweek and author of "Ethical Intelligence," said there are five life principles to follow to behave ethically. The first principle is "Do no harm." A plan sponsor can harm participants by sharing confidential information or lying to a participant about a mistake made in his account. A financial adviser can harm clients by consciously overcharging them or recommending an action that is not appropriate for their plans. Weinstein's second principle is "Make things better." A plan adviser helping a plan sponsor that is struggling with loan administration is making things better. A plan sponsor that admits it used the wrong compensation to calculate a participant's benefit and corrects the mistake, is making things better. Weinstein said ethically intelligent people also take time every day to make things better for themselves, such as eating right or exercising. As an example he said staying home from work to rest when you have the flu is not only taking care of yourself, but it is good for business because you keep from making others sick and you may not do your best if you are sick or on medication.

A hidden treasure in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Nearly 200,000 light-years from Earth, the Large Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, floats in space, in a long and slow dance around our galaxy. Vast clouds of gas within it slowly collapse to form new stars. In turn, these light up the gas clouds in a riot of colours, visible in this image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is ablaze with star-forming regions. From the Tarantula Nebula, the brightest stellar nursery in our cosmic neighbourhood, to LHA 120-N 11, part of which is featured in this Hubble image, the small and irregular galaxy is scattered with glowing nebulae, the most noticeable sign that new stars are being born.
The LMC is in an ideal position for astronomers to study the phenomena surrounding star formation. It lies in a fortuitous location in the sky, far enough from the plane of the Milky Way that it is neither outshone by too many nearby stars, nor obscured by the dust in the Milky Way's centre. It is also close enough to study in detail (less than a tenth of the distance of the Andromeda Galaxy, the closest spiral galaxy), and lies almost face-on to us [1], giving us a bird's eye view.
LHA 120-N 11 (known as N11 for short) is a particularly bright region of the LMC, consisting of several adjacent pockets of gas and star formation. NGC 1769 (in the centre of this image) and NGC 1763 (to the right, see heic1011) are among the brightest parts.
In the centre of this image, a dark finger of dust blots out much of the light. While nebulae are mostly made of hydrogen, the simplest and most plentiful element in the Universe, dust clouds are home to heavier and more complex elements, which go on to form rocky planets like Earth. Much finer than household dust (it is more like smoke), this interstellar dust consists of material expelled from previous generations of stars as they died.
The data in this image were identified by Josh Lake, an astronomy teacher at Pomfret School in Connecticut, USA, in the Hubble's Hidden Treasures image processing competition. The competition invited members of the public to dig out unreleased scientific data from Hubble's vast archive, and to process them into stunning images.
Josh Lake won first prize in the competition with an image contrasting the light from glowing hydrogen and nitrogen in N11. The image above combines the data he identified with additional exposures taken in blue, green and near infrared light.

Tudor Hotel, L. Murray Dixon, 1939
A writer Barbara Capitman is credited to save South Beach from buldozers in the 70's. Where others saw eyesore in the delapidated buildings, she saw a real treasure. Most of the buildings were in the Art Deco style and dated to the 1930s and 40s. Leonard Horowitz, an industrial designer, seized on the idea of resurrecting the buildings with the genial use of pastel colours. Decaying, old hotels were restored and made to look better than ever. In 1979, as a result of the efforts of Barbara Capitman, the Miami Design Preservation League, Miami Beach's Art Deco District was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. This hotel emphasizes its corner site by the pink decorative stone, the angled entrance, the signage, and the needle-like spire.

The Greater Toronto Hockey League is again asking its players, their parents and its teams for input on when bodychecking should be allowed.
Scott Oakman, the GTHL's executive director, said the league first issued a survey in 2011 asking if the age for contact should be increased.
"We want to measure current opinion against the last survey," said Oakman. "If it comes back overwhelming to move to a different age, it would impact what we do going forward."
Currently, bodychecking is permitted in A, Double-A and Triple-A competition from minor peewee (11 years) and up, said Oakman.
The survey asks at what age bodychecking should be implemented in competitive hockey, and whether bodychecking should be eliminated from certain levels of competitive hockey entirely.
Contact is currently not allowed in lower levels of competition, like house league and select.
In the last survey, issued in 2011, about 13 per cent of the league's parents, players and organizations responded. Of the 1,478 who filled out the survey, 1,300 were parents of players, said Oakman.
Oakman said 52 per cent of respondents said no change in age was needed for A hockey and 55 per cent said no change was needed in Double-A or Triple-A.
The current survey can be accessed from the GTHL website and will be available until March 4.

Judge Extends Travis County Voting Hours
Updated: Tuesday, March 4 2014, 05:46 PM CST
Today local election officials went to court literally hoping to make up for lost time. Travis County voters lost four hours of voting time this morning after icy weather delayed the opening of polling sites.
Jan Soifer, chairwoman of the Travis County Democratic Party says, "The result of that is that the 12-hour period that people normally have to vote has been changed and the polls automatically close at 7 p.m. unless a court orders otherwise."
And Judge Lora Livingston did exactly that, ordering that the polls stay open until 9 p.m.
But under state law the votes cast after seven will be treated as provisional ballots.
Travis County Clerk Dana DeBeauvoir explains, "All those ballots will count, but they have to go through one extra step before we can include them in the totals and they won't be included in Election night."
The extra hours of voting will also put Republicans in a bind since they were planning on having their neighborhood precinct conventions tonight.
Rosemary Edwards, chairwoman of the Travis County Republican Party says, "We are asking cooperation with the precinct chairs and with the (election) judges to take their materials to the receiving stations as soon as possible and then get back to conduct their precinct conventions."
DeBeauvoir says it could take up to five days to count those provisional ballots.

The Hartford, one of the oldest companies in the United States and one of three insurers to get a government bailout during the financial crisis, said it would shut down its annuity business and pursue a sale or other options for its individual life insurance, retirement plan and broker/dealer businesses.
The surprise decision, announced well before sunrise, caps a tumultuous six weeks for the Hartford, whose shares rose nearly 4 percent in premarket trading.
The company's problems started on Feb. 8, when Paulson screamed at management on a quarterly earnings call that the Hartford had to do something "drastic" to improve its industry-low valuations.
Paulson subsequently pushed publicly for a split of the life and property insurance businesses, a move that most analysts agreed with in theory but said would be financially difficult in practice.
The Hartford said it would now focus on its property and casualty, group benefits and mutual fund businesses. It will keep writing business in the for-sale units while it pursues a deal or deals.
"Individual Life, Woodbury Financial Services and Retirement Plans are strong businesses with distinct market positions and talented employees, but they do not align with our go-forward focus," Chief Financial Officer Christopher Swift said in a statement.
Hartford said it would stop new annuity sales from April 27 and take a related after-tax charge of $15 million to $20 million in the second quarter. The company was once one of the largest annuity producers in the country, but grew more conservative after the crisis and was not even in the top 20 in the most recent industry rankings.
Shares of the Hartford were up 3.6 percent in trading before the market opened. At Tuesday's close, the stock had risen 13.5 percent since Paulson began his breakup push, far outperforming a 2.7 percent gain for the broader industry index.
Still, the Hartford has a sharply lower valuation than peers, trading at a fraction of its book value. Paulson had suggested his breakup plan could boost the stock by as much as 60 percent.

So I'm considering getting a handgun and wanted some input. I really like the Ruger SR40c or SR9c. Anyone shot them? I had shot a M&P 40, which is very similar and like it except a little part by my thumb that I think will rub and bother me. So anyway, just putting it out there to see if there is any input.
Posted 01 August 2012 - 08:38 PM
Need more info on what you're planning to use it for in order to give any semblance of advice. Carry weapon? Target shooting? Something to have around the house?
Posted 01 August 2012 - 08:54 PM
The Twins have been bad, but let's not go overboard here.

I've contacted homeland security. By the way if you ever use a gun in a situation where a criminal is killing people talk radio has taught me that you will accidently murder at least 4 people. I've also learned from talk radio that the picture on a movie screen is constantly black and contains no light. Nor does a gun shot have any sound or light. Guns are bad man.
Posted 02 August 2012 - 06:27 AM
Smerf, your best bet is to go find a shooting range that rents guns and try a few out. I'm a Glock guy myself but that's because they just fit my hand better than other firearms. I like the weight and feel of the gun. Your mileage will vary based on your particular needs.

Embattled Wales captain Sam Warburton has attempted to find a gleam of hope amid the gloom before the European rugby champions try to reverse current form and recent history against New Zealand.
Since completing a third grand slam in seven years last March, Wales have lost five consecutive tests. The sequence includes upset losses to Argentina and Samoa in their first two fixtures of the November international season.
Now they face New Zealand and Australia on consecutive weekends in the knowledge that they have not beaten the All Blacks in 24 matches since their last triumph 59 years ago.
This month, while Wales floundered, the world champions gave their reserves a run and still defeated Scotland and Italy by comfortable margins. The world champions will now unleash their full-strength team on Wales and then England in the following week.
"I guess there is no pressure on us now because nobody will expect anything next Saturday, (local time)" Warburton said this week. "That is sport, that is why there are underdogs, underdogs can beat the favourites."
"The players appreciate that if they were fortunate enough to beat the All Blacks then it would almost make them immortal. I think Wales would go crazy."
Wales have not suddenly become a lost cause and they experienced form slumps between the grand slams. They have also suffered the inevitable spate of injuries experienced by all teams in the relentlessly physical professional era, with wing George North the latest casualty.
Still, few people in the principality share the optimism that Warburton is publicly obliged to voice and one try in the last two matches, an interception against Samoa, tells its own story in a nation which rightly prides itself on the national team's attacking prowess.
"Welsh rugby is in despair and disarray," wrote Barry John, the gifted flyhalf in the only British and Irish Lions to win a series in New Zealand.
"Put simply, we are facing a very serious situation. I can't remember anything as acute as the decline of this Welsh team in a matter of a few months."
Welsh fullback Leigh Halfpenny, one player whose reputation has not suffered in a fraught November, agrees that the poor form of Wales's four regional teams on the European stage could have affected the national side.
"It may be a factor," he said. "The Heineken Cup did not really go well for the regions. With the Cardiff Blues we haven't won too many games, the habit of winning is not there at the moment."
New Zealand, still smarting from the 18-18 draw with Australia last month which halted their seemingly remorseless advance to a world record-equalling 17 consecutive wins by a leading nation, have another goal in prospect.
Victories over Wales and England followed by two over France next year would equal the record of 23 unbeaten matches set by their 1987 World Cup-winning side.
"This New Zealand team is one of the best rugby sides to have played the game and probably the best All Blacks side ever," said Wales's New Zealand coach Warren Gatland, who resumes control of the side for the remaining tests against the All Blacks and Australia.
"It will be a privilege to be able to test ourselves against them."
For their part, the New Zealand management are taking the resolutely pragmatic approach which characterises the most successful nation in rugby history and concentrating simply on the task in hand.
"We have known since the World Cup that this would be the game that they (Wales) would be targeting in this autumn series," said head coach Steve Hansen. "Any recent performances or results won't have any bearing on this match."

After a 1-4 start, Mike Brown has been fired by the Los Angeles Lakers, according to Sam Amick of USA Today Sports. This comes only a few days after Kobe Bryant initially expressed support for the embattled coach, but a day after video of Kobe giving Brown a death stare circulated on the web. Kobe claims he still supported Brown, but with today's firing, that seems unlikely. Chances are, if Kobe wanted Mike to have more time, Mike would have had more time.
But he didn't, so here are 21 Kobe Bryants Who Definitely Got Mike Brown Fired.

After struggling for a couple years with a competitor's discs and pads (on my 2006 Subaru Legacy GT), I decided to give Centric a try. I work for a police agency and I asked our mechanics for advice. I opted for a full set of Centric cryo-treated rotors (plain surface) and Posi Quiet extended wear semi-metallic pads. I am very pleased with the outcome. The braking system is now very responsive, super quiet, and the stops are buttery smooth.

Razorlight and Johnny Borrell - Cornbury Music Festival 2015 at the Great Tew Estate - Day 1 at Great Tew, Cornbury Music Festival - Oxfordshire, United Kingdom - Friday 10th July 2015
Johnny Borrell has sold 594 copies of his album. If he got £8.99 a copy, he's made £5340. Yeah!
It's not typical record company procedure, but this is Stiff Records, "where the fun never sets," - apparently.
The label sent out a hilarious press release this week, announcing the first sales figures for Johnny Borrell's - of Razorlight fame - first solo album, Borrell 1. It's actually the first new album that Stiff Records have put out since 2007 - and it sold just 594 copies. Given the Beatles reference in the title, it's probably not too serious.
But anyway, to put that into perspective, that's just less than The Voice winner Leanne Mitchell managed to shift.

But what's worrying me is Europe.
I knew it wouldn't be easy, even with help, but this is nuts.
I hope to find more beofre looking for a researcher- which is

Christchurch police are targeting tourists at airport-based rental companies as part of a national campaign to reduce the number of crashes involving foreign drivers.
After several high-profile fatal crashes involving tourists on New Zealand roads, police have spent the past few weeks talking to tourists at car and campervan rental outlets near Christchurch International Airport and handing out information leaflets about road safety.
Last month, New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) figures showed foreign drivers caused more fatal crashes and injuries in the South Island than the national average - and tourist hot spots of Otago and the West Coast fared worst.
A Transport Ministry spokeswoman said the NZTA, police and other agencies had established a "signature road safety project" to focus on overseas drivers, especially in the lower South Island.
The project would look at ways of encouraging tourists to hire the safest rental vehicles they could afford and promoting safe routes and realistic travel itineraries.
It would also consider how to make the roads safer through improved signage and road markings.
The Rental Vehicle Association (RVA) said it was working on operator-led initiatives, while the Government has established a working group to focus on the lower South Island after recent scrutiny of overseas drivers.
James Dalglish, a member of the RVA and general manager for GO Rentals, said the association had been working on initiatives behind the scenes for "a lot longer than this issue has been a hot topic in the press".
Rental operators had a responsibility to put their own tools in place, he said, but the Government needed to be accountable for better signage on troublesome roads and overall road maintenance.
The Queenstown GO Rentals branch manager had been known to drive around the block with tourists and others had been denied rentals, Dalglish said.
"It's not good for us, either, to have our vehicles involved in crashes," he said.
Initiatives being developed by the industry included:
■ A video with information about roads and driving that can be shown to clients when they book.
■ In-vehicle stickers and information booklets.
■ Asking questions during the sign-up process to determine a driver's suitability.
■ An iPad driving test taken in-branch.
South Island manager for A2B Car Rental John Hunter said the company had information on its website about New Zealand's road rules and also about driving conditions.
There was also a link to an online driver's test for tourists. "But we support any initiative that police or the [NZTA] come out with."
Hunter said police officers had recently been talking to tourists at airport rental companies about road rules and safety.
A petition calling for overseas drivers to be required to pass a test before they can drive on New Zealand roads has been presented to Parliament.

Your highest-level employees probably earn salaries well into six figures. Triple or even quadruple the tidy sum paid to any one of those executives or specialized employees and you'll have a rough idea of what it will cost to replace them, according to a white paper from Sage, the software company, which cites research by consultant Ross Blake. He also details some other eye-opening turnover costs, including:
• The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) estimates that it costs $3,500 to replace an $8 per hour employee. SHRM's figures were actually the lowest of 17 nationally respected organizations that calculated such costs.
• Other sources say that it costs between 30% and 50% of a departing worker's annual salary to replace entry-level employees, 150% to replace middle-level employees, and, as mentioned above, up to 400% for specialized or high-level employees.
Turnover also entails other costs, such as overtime or substitution coverage, onboarding expenses, and dips in productivity as new employees learn the ropes.
As you can see in the chart below, employee turnover is incredibly expensive. Investing in employee retention can provide almost instant payback. Sage calculates that a 2 percent drop in turnover can save a midsize company well into six figures. Achieving best-in-class rates can save millions.

If 1950s sci-fi schlockmeister Ed Wood could have gotten his hands on $60 million and CGI special effects, he might have made a movie as hilariously gawdawful as "Battlefield Earth."
Seriously on par with Wood's infamous "Plan 9 from Outer Space" as one of the worst motion picture in science fiction history, this bloated, brain-dead, narcissistic, almost completely nonsensical cinematic disaster is likely to make anyone with any kind of summer movie standards long for the return of movie-mocking Comedy Central series "Mystery Science Theater 3000."
A man-vs.-monster parable about an enslaved human race rebelling against their alien masters a millennium after being nuked back to the Stone Age, almost every scene features such bad writing, bad acting and absurdly implausible circumstances that it just begs to be viciously ripped apart.

Hidden gem with quaint rear patio. We had trout dip with Pita for appetizer...delicious. Also ordered the salmon and shrimp dishes. All was great. We will return!
Our group of three adults enjoyed an appetizer round and three different entrees, all of which were excellent. I especially recommend the P.E.I. Mussels in Thai Red Curry Coconut Sauce as a starter, and the Teriyaki Glazed Hawaiian Albacore Tuna for the entree. But you can't go wrong with any of them. The service was also top notch.
One thing...
Very nice environment with warm colors and a tin ceiling. The service was good and our food was excellent. Fine dining.
It was July 4th and I forgot to make a dinner reservation. Fortunately, due to a cancelation, we were able to get there for dinner. This had to be a gift from heaven. the atmosphere is that of an old time European Bar, complete with the large wood bar back and thr stained glass booth separators. And after you drink...
Excellent Rocky Mountain grilled trout
We were undecided about which wine to order, so the waiter (Adam) created an impromptu wine tastings
Been here before and it's always great, my last visit was no exception. Many different apps and entrees were ordered amongst the dinner party, not a crumb left of any of them, fabulous. The decor is old western bar room chic, also has two outside dining decks.
Our family of 5 enjoyed a dinner here after a long day of biking and hiking. Started off with the Vietnamese Style Grilled Calamari which was delish. The grilled shrimp and grits were excellent. Daughter enjoyed the beef short ribs while hubby loved his red trout. The service was excellent. Highly recommend this restaurant!
Yes, they fly fresh fish three times a week from Boston! The menu is interesting and varied, the wi es are very reasonable, it's dark and busy and has a lovely atmosphere. As usual, staff here are kind and helpful, and nothing seems to be too much trouble, even if you only want to share a small dish. We loved...
This place was recommended to us, so we thought we would try it. It does have a limited menu and a little on the pricey side but not bad. I had the special of the evening (halibut) and it was really good. I didn't care for the slaw but liked everything else. My husband had the spare ribs and cleaned...
Delicious food, great service, and decent Old Fashioned using the local Bourbon. The back deck dining area was clean, felt totally Breckenrige, but looked a little run down. It didn't fit the great food served there. This was a great find with many of the locals giving it their recommendation. There was even a little fox family running around next...
