While other children were watching Saturday morning cartoons, eight-year-old Jenny Han was tuning into Style with Elsa Klensch. Around this same time, she acquired a fondness for old movies, in particular films from the 20s and 30s, featuring interesting period fashions and the earliest fashionistas glamorous Hollywood starlets wearing the newest fashions of the time. An early lover of antiques and design aesthetics, Han began drawing inspiration from items that had a little history behind them. She would later design clothing that had a story to tell as well.
In early 2003, Han took a leap of faith, joined forces with fashion industry entrepreneur J. Andrew Coy, and started a line in her namesake melding her love for historical fashion and old Hollywood glamour with her contemporary influences. In the fall of 2004, she debuted her first Jenny Han collection to rave reviews.
My goal was to bring back legendary diva looks and translate that into versatile styles while maintaining a distinctly original, soft and feminine feel, says Han. The Jenny Han girl is evolved, into fashion and loves our attention to little details. She wants to feel sexy and feminine, without being too frilly.

Remove App Passwords
If you lose a device or stop using an app that was authorized with an App Password, we recommend revoking its App Password so that no one can access your Google Account from that device.
App passwords allow apps or devices that don't support 2-Step Verification codes to access your Google Account. If you use 2-Step Verification and accessed your Google Account from an app or device like Gmail on your iPhone or iPad, you probably used an App Password.
Note: If you have iOS 8.3 on your iPhone or OSX 10.10.3 on your Mac, you will no longer have to use App passwords to use 2-Step Verification.
To remove an App Password:
- Visit your App Passwords page.
- You'll see a list of the apps you've created App Passwords for. Click Revoke next to the application you no longer want to have access to your account.
If you're an Android 4.0+ user, we recommend removing "Android" from the "Connected Sites, Apps, and Services" section.
Once revoked, that App Password can't be used to access your Google Account again. If you want to start using your account on an app or device again, you'll need to generate a new App Password.

A stalemate over a lighting plan between the town of LeRay and a housing developer seeking to build 85 single-family houses off Route 3 across from Riverbend Estates was resolved Thursday night by the town Planning Board.
Developer Paul M. Fowler of Fayetteville was given the go-ahead to start clearing land to build the houses, contingent on approval of the project by the state Department of Environmental Conservation.
To be called Changing Seasons, the development will be built in three phases on the 65-acre site, where Mr. Fowler hopes to break ground next winter. Twenty houses are to be completed by next spring, with 18- and 47-unit phases after that. Building at a pace of about 20 units a year, the goal will be to complete the project by 2016, Mr. Fowler said.
Were now ready to go and start clearing the land, he said, adding he expects the Planning Board and Town Council to give the final approval for the project in July.
But Mr. Fowler, who began planning the project last year, had to aggressively defend his energy-efficient streetlighting strategy to get it approved by Town Council members, who initially were skeptical of the plan. The board originally had required Mr. Fowler to install 90 streetlights to comply with the towns minimum lighting requirement, which stipulates that areas must be lit enough to produce a one foot-candle level. Objecting, Mr. Fowler plans 8-foot LED light posts in front of each house a total of 85 and seven at the intersections along Route 3.
At $500 per light, Mr. Fowler said, the plan will save him thousands of dollars on the project cost. The lights proposed by the town were about $2,000 apiece. His plan will save roughly $134,000.
The towns plan would have been cost-prohibitive, said Mr. Fowler, who adamantly defended his plan when challenged by Town Council members in March. The town requires a lighting district like a city, which is very unusual.
The lights will be hard-wired to the houses and situated 10 feet from the sidewalks. Theyll include photo eye technology that automatically turns them on and off when the darkness reaches a certain level. Residents in the development will belong to a homeowners association and will pay a monthly fee for the lighting.
Mr. Fowler, who said the total project cost will be about $2.5 million, said he needed to take a firm stance on the lighting plan to limit costs to ensure the houses are sold at an affordable price. The two-story houses, which will have three or four bedrooms, will be sold for about $200,000 each.
Its part of sticking with your business plan, he said. If (costs) get out of control its not worth the putting the money in the ground. Its not a simple matter to raise the price of the lots, because you want people to be able to afford them.
Its a business lesson that Mr. Fowler, who has built homes in Watertown since the 1980s, knows by heart. Changing Seasons is designed to target military families at Fort Drum, about 2 miles from the site.
Were trying to hit the Fort Drum single-family housing market, he said. You can have the best project in the world, but if there isnt a market, you cant sell houses.
Planning Board Chairman Jerry D. Hobbs said board members reached a consensus after reviewing details of the lighting plan. Mr. Fowler slightly modified the original lighting plan he pitched to the town board in March.
We all agreed that the plan they came up with is acceptable, Mr. Hobbs said.

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
A new beginning! The end of his career has been postponed, a change of residence comes along, but one thing remains the same: Atomic as partner. Biathlete Christoph Sumann (36) sticks to Atomic World Cup Hard and Soft Track, the Worldcup Skate boots and the SNS binding system until the Olympic Games 2014.
"I owe my biggest successes to ATOMIC, so why would I want to change?" Austria's most successful biathlete commented. Christoph Sumann had planned to end his career. But after his disappointing season the winner of 9 World Cup races and six medals at Olympic Games and World Championships simply couldn't close this chapter like this. Sumann Reloaded is a completely new beginning for the 10 times Austrian Champion: "I've not only chosen to do it, but to really do it. So I'll move to Innsbruck with my family, my wife and the two kids. The biathlon center in Seefeld offers the perfect infrastructure for my aims. All of my family support my decision, which is the most important thing for me." What is important as well is the further cooperation with ATOMIC. "It's like a good marriage: both sides have to work for the success and ATOMIC and the team are ready to give everything just as I do. The new material components of the ski give me a positive feeling." ATOMIC Nordic Director Roman Toferer is looking forward to the further cooperation with the exceptional athlete from Styria, "We are currently developing the new ATOMIC FEATHERLIGHT Generation, the new WORLD CUP SOFT TRACK is already being tested and suits Sumi perfectly. We all work together to get him back on a successful track."

5-0 And Good to Go
Tommy DeeI've watched the Knicks for a long time. I remember Marvin Webster. I rooted hard for Ken "the animal" Bannister who, not only was human but was an containable. I rooted for Jawann Oldham, used to house sit with a friend for Charles Oakley and played pick up games with guys like Greg Butler. As a Knicks fan there have been good times and there have been worse times. In my lifetime there haven't been great times.
This Knicks team is very good and is proving it nightly. Then why is it that people are waiting for the bubble to burst? Why aren't people over Jeremy Lin yet? Why do I feel as if some Knicks fans, the die hards that I've been in the trenches with online here for almost a decade, aren't as excited about the Knicks start as others?
I understand the concept of being too good to be true. I can understand people holding back their "I told you so's" until Kidd gets hurt or Rasheed gets suspended for yelling at a ref or J.R. shoots them out of a game.
But here's my thing. Jason Kidd hasn't missed the playoffs since the 96-97 season. That's 15 years. Think about that? Do you think that's a coincidence? J.R. Smith seems to be leaning on Mike Woodson for mentorship. There's something about Smith that seems more focused this year so far. He's a different player.
So while some fans sit and wait for the other shoe to drop, the Knicks continue to stay focused on the task at hand, which now continues to San Antonio.

NetMotion Wireless develops software to manage and secure wireless data deployments for organizations with mobile field workers. Founded in 2001, NetMotion Wireless has been recognized as one of the fastest growing wireless and technology companies, received over 25 awards for outstanding technology, and acquired over 2,500 customers, including Advocate Healthcare, Comcast, Hertz, Pacific Gas & Electric Company, Oregon State Police, and Unilever.
NetMotion Wireless Mobility is a market share-leading1 mobile VPN that helps maximize mobile field worker productivity by maintaining and securing their data connections as they move in and out of wireless coverage areas and roam between networks. Organizations using Mobility see considerable ROI from gains in mobile worker productivity, as well as lowered IT support costs.
Locality™ is a NetMotion Wireless cellular network performance management product that gives organizations the insight and visibility they need to optimize their mobile data deployments. Using Locality, companies can:
Figure 1: Locality Coverage Map
When first developing NetMotion Wireless Locality in 2010, database architect Jonathan Wiggs and the rest of the product team faced multiple challenges:
Wiggs and the rest of the team decided to evaluate MySQL based on its reputation as a low-cost / high performance database, its multi-platform and multi-language support, and its popularity as an embedded database. They had some doubts whether MySQL could perform at the levels Locality and Mobility Analytics required, and were most concerned about using MySQL - the "M" in LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP/Perl/Python) - on Windows.
The product team subjected MySQL to rigorous testing, using key criteria to compare it with what they knew best: Microsoft SQL Server. Their conclusions follow:
The decision to use MySQL was clear but the team had concerns that moving Mobility Analytics from SQL Server to MySQL wouldn't be as straightforward. Three things helped ease their migration:
The product team found it easy to develop with MySQL, and even easier using MySQL Workbench. Said Wiggs, "MySQL Workbench is just a really good tool. No problems, it's intuitive, it works well. Hard to ask for more than that." Training on MySQL (which was a new database for many) consisted of a few informal training sessions over lunch.
With MySQL, Locality can achieve hundreds of thousands of transactions per minute running on a VM on a laptop. This allows the development team to test on a number of systems simply using VMs. "The fact that we're not limited to running our tests on two $20,000 servers removes a huge barrier," said Wiggs.
Wiggs found that "it was much easier to establish a licensing agreement with Oracle than with Microsoft. This is a huge benefit, even for technical people."
NetMotion Wireless has been impressed with MySQL's reliability. "We've always been able to get MySQL back up and we've never had any irrecoverable loss of data. That's especially impressive because our applications are used in the field."
"MySQL's administration is automated, easy to configure, and highly configurable: we can get it to leap through any flaming hoops we need. In real-time, MySQL checks the hardware parameters and builds itself for that system, fully optimized to take advantage of the hardware. MySQL makes it all easy and transparent for customers. That's huge. We just want our customers to look at the application's analytics, not at the database admin screen, tools, or console," said Wiggs.
Summing up, Wiggs said, "MySQL's enterprise capabilities and ease of integration make it competitive with the other enterprise databases. MySQL provided the perfect trifecta of feature parity, ease of integration, and lower cost."

In a game mainly comprised of field positioning, North Sanpete was able to make enough plays while capitalizing on Carbon High miscues to send the Dinos to their second straight defeat, 17-0.
After running out of the gate with a 4-0 record to start the 2011 season, the Carbon High Football team has slowed down over the past two weeks.
The first half of play saw both teams struggle to create and sustain drives on offense. North Sanpete struck first just before halftime as they scored a touchdown on a 6-yard run by Brady Walker to go up 7-0.
Mirroring the first half of play, Carbon's offense was unable to create drives down the field. Many of Carbon's possessions saw them starting deep in their own territory.
The Hawks were able to add 10 points in the second half on a 1-yard run by Kaden Poulson and a 36-yard field goal by Dakota Kleven to build their lead to 17-0. The touchdown by Poulson was aided in part by a Dino fumble deep in their own territory.
"They (North Sanpete) controlled the line of scrimmage all game long," said assistant coach Jeff Cisneros.
After averaging 25.5 points per game through their first four games on the season, the Dinos offense for the second week in a row never seemed to get on track against the Hawks defense.
The Dinos offense has been shutdown in the last six quarters of play, last scoring a touchdown in the second quarter against Delta on Sept. 23.
Quarterback Dakota Cisneros finished 14-of-30 passing for 83 yards with two interceptions. Wide receiver Nick Haycock led all Dinos receivers with 35 yards on five catches. Colton England added 23 yards on three catches and Daulton Nelson had 18 yards on four catches.
During one series on offense Cisneros had to leave the game due to an issue with his contacts. Haycock, who is the team's backup quarterback, took over for Cisneros on the possession.
The Dinos rushed for 17 yards, with Cisnero leading the team with 13 yards on three rushes. Nelson had three yards on three carries and Haycock had three yards on two carries.
The Dinos defense again played a strong game as they kept the Hawks offense from breaking the game open. Dillon Manzanares led the defense with 13 tackles. Tanner Gagnon added 8 tackles and three sacks and Ozzie Loaiza had five tackles and three sacks. The defense finished with a total of 10 sacks on the night.
With the loss Carbon is now 4-2 (0-2 in Region 12 play) on the season. The team will continue their season next Friday as they will take on Payson High School in Payson at 7 p.m.
What may have looked at one point as a favorable outcome, after starting the season undefeated, Carbon's playoff chances are now hanging in the balance. The top four teams from the region will advance to the 3A playoffs.
Currently the Dinos are in a tie for last place in the region with Payson, which makes the game this Friday all the more important for the team to come out and play well on both sides of the ball.
"We just need to continue working hard in practice and we need to get as many players as we can to step up," Cisneros said. "Offensively we can't just keep throwing the ball on every down. We need to get our run game going."
Cisneros said Payson will try to throw the ball all over the field on Friday night.
"We have to come out, play hard and make plays if we want to walk away from Payson with a win," he said.

- How to Read a Study Record
The purpose of this study is to find the best and most sensitive screening modality (CT, MRI, EUS)for very small pre-cancerous pancreatic lesions and to treat these small lesions before they turn into cancer. Another purpose of this study is to search for common markers on DNA that would increase the chance of someone developing pancreatic cancer, and locate proteins in pancreatic juice that indicate tumor development.
Pancreatic Neoplasm
Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome
Procedure: Biopsy, Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA)
Drug: Secretin (human synthetic) - ChiRhoClin
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Observational Model: Cohort
Time Perspective: Prospective
|Official Title:
|Screening for Early Pancreatic Neoplasia
- To determine the diagnostic yield of screening high risk patients [ Time Frame: 1 year ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]To determine the diagnostic yield of screening high risk patients (defined as relatives of patients with familial pancreatic cancer,patients with familial Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, and patients with germline BRCA2 and p16 mutations) for early pancreatic neoplasia using endoscopic ultrasonography, CT, and MRI/MRCP.
Biospecimen Retention: Samples With DNA
approx 40 ml of blood, approx 10 ml pancreatic juice, pancreatic cells if fine needle aspirate is clinically recommended
|Study Start Date:
|December 2006
|Study Completion Date:
|December 2009
|Primary Completion Date:
|December 2009 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Procedure: Biopsy, Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA)
Pancreatic cancer (PC) is the 4th leading cause of cancer death in the U.S. Because it is seldom diagnosed at an early curable stage, nearly all patients die from their disease. Early detection of PC and its precursors will save lives. In a multi-center, translational prospective controlled cohort study, we propose to screen high-risk individuals (members of familial pancreatic cancer kindreds and/or those with germline mutations of BRCA-2, p16, or STK-11), using EUS, CT, and MRI and test a panel of candidate biomarkers. Patients with suspected neoplasms will be offered surgery and the resected pancreata will be examined by an expert pathologist. Pathological results will be compared with radiologic findings and biomarker results. Our study hypothesis is that screening tests can detect early curable non-invasive pancreatic neoplasia in high risk individuals before it progresses to invasive cancer. The primary specific aim of this study is to determine the frequency of detectable pancreatic neoplasia in individuals with an inherited predisposition for pancreatic cancer. Our additional specific aims are: 1) To test the value of a newly-developed method (PANCPRO) of calculating the risk families have of developing PC so as to best target who might benefit from screening; 2a). To compare performance characteristics and reliability of the pancreatic imaging tests EUS, CT, and MRI/MRCP for the detection of early pancreatic neoplasia; 2b) To determine the prevalence of abdominal and pelvic tumors by CT and MRI in individuals carrying a germ-line BRCA2 gene mutation and patients with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome; 2c) To correlate radiologic abnormalities with histologic findings in resected pancreata; and 3). To validate a panel of candidate DNA and protein markers (CA19-9, macrophage inhibitory cytokine-1 (MIC-1), DNA hypermethylation, and KRAS gene mutations) in pancreatic juice and serum as indicators of prevalent neoplasms in high risk individuals, compared to concurrently enrolled controls.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|40 Years to 80 Years

Changing Majors
University Studies provides academic advising for RIT undergraduate students about the change of major/program process. Advisors will provide objective information about all of RIT's Programs for students interested in exploring new majors and options, and assist students with all phases of the internal transfer process, from preliminary information-gathering to facilitating the actual change. In all cases, an advising appointment is recommended to determine the best path for the student.
If after an advising appointment a student wishes to request a change of program into the University Studies program to allow themselves time to explore and discover a new major, he or she will need to be a first or second year student and meet all admission requirements. All internal transfer students to University Studies will be required to successfully complete a one credit hour course called Career Exploration Seminar their first term in the program.
Changing into the University Studies Program is not an option for a student who is in his or her third year or higher, however, that student is still welcome to consult with an advisor in USP about other options and to gain information about the general change of major process.

IBERDROLA has undergone a profound transformation since the beginning of this century, allowing it to become Spain's largest energy group, one of the five largest European electricity companies by market capitalization and the world leader in operating wind energy. The Group has achieved total installed capacity of 45,000 MW and has 32.6 million supply points providing energy for some 100 million people around the world.
This positive evolution has been made possible thanks to a strategic vision that has enabled IBERDROLA to anticipate the needs of the energy sector. Over the coming years, the company will continue to develop its sustainable, long-term business model. To that end, it will continue to undertake its investment programme totalling €11.2 billion for the 2014-2016 period, primarily earmarked for the areas of electricity transmission and distribution networks and renewable energies within its flagship markets.
IBERDROLA´S success is due to its strategy developed in three stages:
Thanks to this international diversification, IBERDROLA today combines a talent pool that brings together different cultures, languages and traditions, which faces the future as a single and great team.
IBERDROLA will carry out an intensive investment programme between 2014 and 2016 amounting to a net €9.6 billion (gross €11.2 billion) focused on projects and countries enjoying stable and predictable regulatory frameworks.
Of this amount 46% (€4.4 billion) will be allocated to new infrastructure and the remaining 54% (€5.2 billion) to maintenance and improvements.
The Company will allocate the largest share of investments to the UK with 41%, followed by Latin America (nearly 23%) with most of this in Mexico and the United States (17%).
Investments will be conditioned on favourable market and regulatory frameworks existing in each country, with a progressive reduction in Spain until the investment climate improves. The negative impact of Spanish energy reforms on Group accounts is projected at €1.31 billion in Ebitda in 2014.
Group investments will concentrate on electricity transmission and distribution with 57% of the total, followed by renewables with 22%, and other generation with 19%. Regulated businesses - networks, renewables and regulated generation - account for 88% of total net investments.
The Company's central goal is to focus on activities with growth potential, and strategy will accordingly centre on:

About Stackless
An introduction for newcomers
Stackless Python is an enhanced version of the Python programming language. It allows programmers to reap the benefits of thread-based programming without the performance and complexity problems associated with conventional threads. The microthreads that Stackless adds to Python are a cheap and lightweight convenience which can if used properly, give the following benefits:
- Improved program structure.
- More readable code.
- Increased programmer productivity.
For all the convenience gained through using Stackless, there is really only a minimal amount of functionality exposed through the stackless module. You can get more familiar with these aspects by reading the nformation provided in the following pages:
- Microthreads: tasklets wrap functions allowing them to be launched as microthreads.
- Channels: channels can be used for bidirectional communication between tasklets.
- Scheduling: a round robin scheduler is built in. It can be used to schedule tasklets either cooperatively or preemptively.
- Serialisation: tasklets can be serialised to disk through pickling for later resumption of execution.
Further reading material
- FAQ: frequently asked questions.
- Examples: useful or descriptive pieces of code that shows Stackless functionality in use.
- Idioms: common patterns in using Stackless Python in code.
- Applications: some of the businesses and projects that Stackless Python has been used by.
Getting started
You either need to compile your own copy from the source code in the Mercurial repository or alternatively obtain a provided precompiled binaries, especially if you use Microsoft Windows, to install over those in your existing Python installation.
Learning to use Stackless
There are currently five main places that you can look to for information on how to use Stackless:
Please feel free to email the mailing list with any questions you may have or to ask in the IRC room.
Old documentation can also be found on the original Stackless site.
Stackless Development
If you found a bug, want to browse the source code, or have a pull request, have a look at the Stackless project page at Bitbucket.
Support Stackless!
Developing Stackless into a rock solid basis for applications is a lot of hard work and it needs more Sprints and much of my personal time. You can help me by sending money. The more money I get for working on Stackless, the more I can reduce work on other projects, since I have to feed a big family.
A number of people said that they would like to sponsor me with a little amount if it were easy to do. Therefore, I signed up with PayPal, where you can send your contribution quite easily:
Please enter a note whether you would like to be listed on the sponsorship page. Thanks in advance!
I wish to thank Michael Hudson, Sam Rushing and Will Ware for their help on the Linux build and for their valuable input. Just van Rossum and Mike Fletcher for working with Will on the Microthreads. Stephen R. Figgins and David Mertz for their articles, and Cameron Laird for preparing even an article series. Gordon McMillan for his nice introduction, and for not yet writing the PEPs (you know what I mean :), CCPGames for their ongoing sponsorship, IronPort for hiring me part-time, Bernd Rinn for building RPM files, all the many other which I forgot to add to this page...
... and Guido van Rossum for still not sending the Spanish Inquisition.

Black Diamond Alpine FLZ
Excellent poles. I use them for day hikes and they work very well. They are fairly light, built well, and fold down much smaller than telescoping poles. And they have adjustability in their length. For beginning and intermediate hikers they are great. I cannot speak for advanced hikers, because I am not one. I like these poles a lot. I'm an intermediate day hiker, going about 8 miles a hike. These poles have made the uphills much easier, and give me more stability on the downhills. They are light… Full review
Pacerpole 3-Section Alloy
This is a strong, light, invaluable walking aid. It takes the weight off your knees, supports you uphill and downhill, and the contoured forward sloping grips make using them perfectly natural. Brilliant for trekkers of all ages and after sales service second to none. I walk the Camino trails in Spain and will not leave home without them! I have used this product for a number of years on the Camino Frances (800kms), the Portoguese route from Porto to Santiago, and from Malaga to Merida. This September… Full review
Komperdell Carbon Ascent Trekking Poles
I've been really impressed with my new trekking poles. They fold down to fit into my rucksac out flight bag and are so light I barely notice I'm carrying them. The locking mechanism is very quick and easy and would be manageable with gloves on, a bonus in cold weather. The straps and grips are comfortable to use and the tip gross well, leaving me feeling secure on rough ground. My only regret is the fact that, although I'm not a particularly short female at around 5' 4", the minimum length is… Full review
Pacerpole 3-Section Alloy
Excellent trekking poles that have helped reduce stress on knees and wrists, encouraged proper posture, better breathing and efficient movement. Pacerpoles have become a key component in my everyday hiking gear. I highly recommend these poles for hikers and backpackers. I have been using Pacerpoles almost daily since I purchased them 4 months ago, hiking with and without a backpack and on a variety of terrain. Most hikes are between 3-10 miles long over a combination of packed dirt, rocks and at… Full review

Literally saved my life, but that's not why they're getting 4.5 stars. *Not the lightest can actually be a "Pro" as well as a "Con," as those extra few ounces translate directly into lateral strength...read on. In my opinion, it's a shame that Black Diamond is no longer producing the Spire. If you're looking for a pole to have in your hand so you look like the rest of the "well dressed sheep" on the trails, this one might not be for you...you're looking for the thinnest, lightest pole you can find.

Leki Tour Stick Trigger S
I must say, it would never occur to me to spend $200 for a pair of poles...but I will certainly accept them as a contest prize, and will put them to good use. These poles have been described as "the ultimate for 4-season use," but are also advertised as ski poles. I have used them for snowshoeing and micro-spike winter hiking, and they are certainly an upgrade over my basic snowshoe poles. These poles are way more pole than I would ever need, but I have come to really like them...and my husband… Full review
Grivel 3.16 Poles
These poles are not reliable: the lower locking mechanism can fail under intensive use and can be dangerous. The lower baskets are easily lost, which is very problematic on snow trips. They look nice, have comfy grips, and the design is innovative, but reliability is key for such a product therefore I would not recommend these for anyone. I have been using these poles for a while in light use. I chose them because Grivel has a good reputation with reliable serious mountain products. I was shocked… Full review
Black Diamond Syncline
Perfectly fine — cheap, light, strong, simple. I own / used both of Black Diamond's (orange) Syncline and (red) Trail Back for ultra-lightweight backpacking, with my son and I each carrying one pole and using both for shelter. Actual weight w/o baskets of Syncline is 270 grams (9.5 oz) and Trail Back 290 grams (10.25 oz). Both handle miles and hands well, but both of ours are pretty soft (we're in Ohio after all). Given the price is often almost the same on these few-years-old-model poles,… Full review
Black Diamond Syncline
These are lightweight, strong trekking poles that won't collapse regardless of how much weight is put on them. The straps and handgrips are very comfortable for snowshoeing. I bought my Black Diamond Syncline trekking poles for snowshoeing, and they're excellent for that purpose. The straps are comfortable and don't chafe when I use them without gloves, and the grips have enough of a lip on them for pulling up my heel lifts. The included snow baskets keep the poles from sinking too far in snow,… Full review

Standard Ligatures
Tag: liga
Function: Replaces a sequence of glyphs with a single glyph which is preferred for typographic purposes. This feature covers the ligatures which the designer/manufacturer judges should be used in normal conditions. The glyph for ffl replaces the sequence of glyphs f f l.
Localized Forms
Tag: locl
Function: Many scripts used to write multiple languages over wide geographical areas have developed localized variant forms of specific letters, which are used by individual literary communities. For example, a number of letters in the Bulgarian and Serbian alphabets have forms distinct from their Russian counterparts and from each other. In some cases the localized form differs only subtly from the script 'norm', in others the forms are radically distinct. This feature enables localized forms of glyphs to be substituted for default forms. The user applies this feature to text to enable localized Bulgarian forms of Cyrillic letters; alternatively, the feature might enable localized Russian forms in a Bulgarian manufactured font in which the Bulgarian forms are the default characters.
Contextual Alternates
Tag: calt
Function: In specified situations, replaces default glyphs with alternate forms which provide better joining behavior. Used in script typefaces which are designed to have some or all of their glyphs join. In Caflisch Script, o is replaced by o.alt2 when followed by an ascending letterform.
Initial Forms
Tag: init
Function: Replaces glyphs at the beginnings of words with alternate forms designed for this use. This is common in Latin connecting scripts, and required in various non-Latins like Arabic. In the typeface Ex Ponto, the default t in the word 'type' is replaced with the t.begin form.
Terminal Forms
Tag: fina
Function: Replaces glyphs at the ends of words with alternate forms designed for this use. This is common in Latin connecting scripts, and required in various non-Latins like Arabic. In the typeface Poetica, the default e in the word 'type' is replaced with the e.end form.
Glyph Composition/Decomposition
Tag: ccmp
Function: To minimize the number of glyph alternates, it is sometimes desired to decompose a character into two glyphs. Additionally, it may be preferable to compose two characters into a single glyph for better glyph processing. This feature permits such composition/decompostion. The feature should be processed as the first feature processed, and should be processed only when it is called. In Syriac, the character 0x0732 is a combining mark that has a dot above AND a dot below the base character. To avoid multiple glyph variants to fit all base glyphs, the character is decomposed into two glyphs...a dot above and a dot below. These two glyphs can then be correctly placed using GPOS. In Arabic it might be preferred to combine the shadda with fatha (0x0651, 0x064E) into a ligature before processing shapes. This allows the font vendor to do special handling of the mark combination when doing further processing without requiring larger contextual rules.
Isolated Forms
Tag: isol
Function: Replaces the nominal form of glyphs with their isolated forms. In Arabic, if the Alef is followed by Lam, the default glyph for Alef is replaced with its isolated form.
Medial Forms
Tag: medi
Function: Replaces glyphs in the middles of words (i.e. following a beginning and preceding an end) with alternate forms designed for this use. Note: This is different from the default form, which is designed for stand-alone use. This is common in Latin connecting scripts, and required in various non-Latins like Arabic. In the typeface Caflisch Script, the y and p in the word 'type' are replaced by the y.med and p.med forms.
Required Ligatures
Tag: rlig
Function: Replaces a sequence of glyphs with a single glyph which is preferred for typographic purposes. This feature covers those ligatures, which the script determines as required to be used in normal conditions. This feature is important for some scripts to insure correct glyph formation. The Arabic character lam followed by alef will always form a ligated lamalef form. This ligated form is a requirement of the script's shaping. The same happens with the Syriac script.

Read: Why KalPa Wanted Derek Stepan
Yesterday Derek Stepan announced that he was heading to Finland to play for KalPa during the lockout.
The contract is for the entire season but does have an "out-clause" if the NHL lockout is solved.
Kalpa CEO Kimmo Kapanen, brother of former NHLer Sammi Kapanen said that the chance to add Stepan was too much to pass up.
Stepan will wear #22 for KalPa. Stepan will play in his first game tomorrow when KalPa takes on the Pelicans.

Socialist Origins of Labor Day
The PR Princess of SKDKnickerbocker: Emily Lenzner
Posted on April 23, 2012 by FoolishReporter in Articles
The Graph took it in our silly heads to really take a look at the people behind the high-powered PR firm, SKDKnickerbocker. In Part One of our exposé, we explored the connections of SKDKnickerbocker's Karen Olick, a prominent media strategist and propagandist for all things Democrat Party related. This time out, we'll turn our eyes to SKDKnickerbocker's PR Princess, Emily Lenzner.
It's hard to know where to start with Lenzner, because, for all intents and purposes, she's been everywhere and done everything one can do in the PR world. According to her bio at SKDKnickerbocker, Lenzner has "served as the Executive Director of Communications for ABC News in Washington, where she was responsible for all public and media relations for This Week with George Stephanopoulos, Nightline, and ABC's Washington Bureau. As the PR representative for the two news programs, Emily served as the primary publicist for ABC's George Stephanopoulos, (and) Christiane Amanpour."
Ho ho ho. Stephanopoulous even? You mean that same George Stehpanopoulous who posed this unusual question about contraception at one of the GOP debates in the fall, which is now being considered the first salvo from the Left in their manufactured "War On Women" meme? And, as has already been pointed out, SKDKnickerbocker represents Sandra Fluke, the professional activist who's testimony ratcheted up that same, fake, manufactured meme. And don't forget Lenzner's colleague, Hilary Rosen, who added her own little contribution to the "War On Women" garbage when she derided Ann Romney as having never worked a day in her life.
Lenzner's connection to Stephanopoulous shouldn't be surprising, because again, even on her bio page at SKDKnickerbocker, it's a proud badge of honor for the firm's PR princess:
Emily's first experience in politics was in the White House as a staff assistant to George Stephanopoulos, when he was senior advisor to President Bill Clinton (1993-1994).
'Nuff said.
In her time at ABC, Lenzner had her fair share of fires to put out. Chief among them was outrage over Nightline dedicating a whole broadcast to reading the names of dead soldiers killed in action in Iraq. Here's the Poynter Institute's breakdown of that decision, with a nice, dispassionate statement regarding that broadcast from Lenzner herself. A bit more of that spat can be read about here, as well.
We see Lenzner projecting that air of elitist superiority so common to the Professional Left in this blog post. The post describes the envy (surprise surprise!) that many news organizations felt over ABC's garnering of so many White House officials to sit at their table for the annual Correspondent's Dinner in 2009. Elitist Lenzner comes through in full glory with this quote :
"'That rumor needs to be 'shot through the heart,' but the only guest George (Stephanopoulos) booked for this White House Correspondents Dinner was Jon Bon Jovi, and to quote the singer, we weren't exactly 'livin' on a prayer' booking guests. We started earlier, worked harder, and these are the results," said ABC News spokeswoman Emily Lenzner."
See what she did there? Cute, ain't it.
Lenzner took a brief break from ABC to manage media relations for NPR, as mentioned above. And, accordingly, her name is attached to some awesomely Leftist and kooky stories NPR ran. This post discusses the terrible price of solitary confinement on poor prisoners! Cause, you know, they wouldn't be there if it weren't for this unjust and unfair system. Lenzner also acted as PR contact for an event in 2003 in New York City, aimed at repealing "unfair" drug laws in that state. Among the luminaries for that 2003 event were activist multi-millionaire Russell Simmons and Sean "P-Diddy" (at that time) Combs.
So, an advocacy for Lefist causes seems to be an M.O. of Lenzner, and that assertion is confirmed even more when one comes across this document from MoveOn.org. This time out, Lenzner was representing ManBearPig theorist Al Gore, and his staunch anti-war stance following the U.S. taking action in Iraq. The release also notes the country's favorite ManBearPig advocate will "address economic and environmental challenges facing the country".
Lenzner's Leftist activist credentials don't stop there. At this site, she's listed as a "Fellow" of the Impact Center's "Woman's Leadership Program". The Impact Center, oddly enough, or maybe not, has it's own "Manifesto". Just… click the link. Trust me, it's good for a laugh.
We get a rare glimpse of Lenzner not necessarily in PR mode with this 2009 article about how PR professionals approach the media. Lenzner shares some tips on how to correctly feed information to the media.
"Lenzner says that working the media is sometimes a daunting task because you have to deal with so many individual personalities. She doesn't like to cold call or pitch stories. 'I like to keep people informed about what my client is doing and hope that one day they'll come calling me looking for news,' she said."
She continues with the nuggets of PR goodness:
"Lenzner said she researches journalists and caters pitches to their needs. She says that when she was in the media she felt she was too nice to public relations departments and that gave them an open door to send blanket pitches. 'It takes more time and energy, but it's worth it in the end to really target the press that you're trying to reach,' she said."
Shorter her: Manipulate the media!
And with an attitude like that regarding the media, it's easy to see why the White House turns to SKDKnickerbocker. As has been illustrated elsewhere, the aforementioned Rosen has visited the White House 35 times since Obama took office. There's Dunn, Fluke and so on.
Lenzner has also been associated with the Obama administration since she became a part of SKDKnickerbocker. Here, in this 2011 schedule for White House dignitaries, Lenzner appears as the contact for an event with Secretary of State Hilary Clinton. Clinton spoke at an awards ceremony for Vital Voices, an activist NGO aimed at "identify(ing), invest(ing) in and bring(ing) visibility to extraordinary women around the world by unleashing their leadership potential to transform lives and accelerate peace and prosperity in their communities."
Another fun fact, and yes, Peter Cherukuri, we made this connection, don't worry, is the fact of who Lenzner's father is. Here, in this NYT write-up of Lenzner's wedding, it briefly mentions Lenzner's dad, Terry Falk Lenzner. (The aforementioned Cherukuri is her husband).
Do a search on the elder Lenzner and ALL sorts of fun results pop up, but foremost among them is a website for the Investigative Group International. And as you can see by clicking on that link, the elder Lenzner was also closely associated with the Clinton White House, where he was the "assistant chief counsel to the Senate Watergate Committee."
And, just for shits and giggles, here's a 1998 post regarding the elder Lenzner's alleged CIA connections. Looks like Emily really IS a chip off the old block at manipulating information and people, just like dear old Dad.
There can be no doubt about it, folks. The group that's assembled at SDKKnickerbocker are, for all intents and purposes, the Seal Team Six of the Left and Far Left's messaging machinery. And so far, we've only given a glimpse of two of them. I wonder what's in store next?
Stay tuned.

Every year when the leaves turn and the air gets crisp, I instinctually move away from the airy frocks of summer and yearn for something altogether richer. Thankfully my appetite was whetted with the re-emergence of the baroque trend on the F/W 12 runways. From the coats adorned with gilded embroidery at Dolce & Gabbana to the heavily embellished jackets at Balmain, there were a plethora of opulent ensembles that would have moved Botticelli to tears.
My favorite way to capture the lavish spirit of the 17th century is with tapestry textiles. In addition to seeing this baroque fabric on the runway, I've also noticed street style darlings, such as L'Uomo Vogue's Giovanna Battaglia and blogger/model Hanneli Mustaparta, embracing it too. The fashion industry's feelings about tapestry are clear: whether it's embroidered, cross-stitched, or hand-woven, it's high time to weave some richness into your wardrobe!
But even with the endorsement of stylesetters and designers alike, I'm a bit hesitant to swath myself in the thick material. After all, I don't want to look like I'm wearing my Grandma's drapes or appear to be a Renaissance fair attendee! Fortunately for us all, the current iteration of tapestry clothing is anything but frumpy. In fact, these ornately patterned pieces will simply add splendor to a look--never a bad thing! Don't believe me? No worries; just check out my three top ways to pull off the trend without looking like you just got upholstered.
Look 1: Weekend Shopping
With my fashion compass fully turned to fall, I can't get enough of layered looks. But when I'm getting dressed for some weekend shopping, I know that the more complicated my outfit, the more frustrated I'll be in the fitting room. Thankfully I found this double-layered Rag & Bone Taj Coat (price upon request), which offers the best of both worlds. This amazing coat has a cropped, tapestry jacket-like layer underneath a long, black outer shell, so you get the effect of an artfully layered ensemble without having to do any work! Even better: for those of you who would pass on a full-on printed outfit (no judgment, it's a lot of look), the coat has just a tiny bit of floral tapestry peeking out, making it an ideal introduction to the trend.
Style Notes: With any print, I love to let the pattern's colors inspire the palette of the rest of my ensemble. By allowing the floral design to take the lead, I didn't have to overthink the rest of my outfit: a khaki fedora, olive skinny jeans, and a burgundy tote to hold all my purchases.
What I Wore:
Rag and Bone Taj Coat (Price Upon Request, 212.219.2204, available now); Wildfox Fiore Hippie Crew T-shirt ($64); River Island Khaki Molly Jeggings ($57); Nine West Vintage Collection Boots ($129); Marc Jacobs Brighton Khaki Tote ($1595, 212.343.1490) in Bordeaux and Camel; Hat Attack Wool Felt Cowboy ($88) in Camel/Burgundy Ribbon.
Look 2: Creative Interview
The suit has long been the cornerstone of the interview ensemble, so I love finding ways to make this menswear classic feel fresh. While the two-piece staple may initially feel too formal, remember that slightly overdressing communicates regard for your future employer. Plus there are a few easy tricks to update the suit, whether it's mixing and matching separates--for example, I wore a navy blazer with forest green trousers for my interview at Who What Wear--or taking the plunge with head-to-toe print. I'm not advocating the tapestry suit for a corporate interview, but in the creative world this look shows you can think (and dress!) outside the cubicle.
Style Notes:
The best creative interview outfits follow the same recipe: one part style-conscious elements (see my leather lapel and burgundy patent loafers) plus one part workwear staples (my button-down shirt and structured doctor bag. It's the sort of no-fail equation that will get you hired.
What I Wore:
Maje Solo Blazer and Risk Pant ($610, $390, 212.775.8330); Gap Perfect Oxford Shirt ($50) in Optic White; Miu Miu Grainy Madras Top Handle Bag ($1350) in Tan; Paul Smith Damson Hayworth Shoes ($685); Sarah Chloe Ella Bangles Clasp Version ($129) in Gold.
Look 3: Fancy Dinner Party
While the tapestry trend can be easily styled for the workplace or the weekend, the opulent textile is truly in its element when it's all dressed up. Whether the fabric's fancy leanings stem from its longstanding popularity among nobility or the sheer indulgence of the plush fibers, there is no denying there's something about tapestry that radiates luxury. My collared dress is no exception; the Arabian Nights-inspired print feels rich in history while the slight metallic sheen makes it evening-appropriate. A stack of jeweled bangles and an embellished clutch enhance the party-ready vibe, while a simple camel bomber jacket keeps the look from feeling overly fussy.
Style Notes:
When you're wearing such a standout piece, it's important to let the star of the show (in this case my sleeveless party dress) take center stage. In other words: style the rest of your outfit with complementary but subtle pieces.
What I Wore:
Jil Sander Navy Shimmery Jacquard Dress ($1510); Wren Cropped Camel Coat ($398); Hue Opaque Control Top Tights ($14) in Black; Charles David Seduction Heels ($250, 310.659.7110, available now in stores only) in Black Satin; ASOS Beaded Clutch ($87); Tory Burch Metallic Bow Headband ($65) in Gold; Juicy Couture Half Round Pave Bracelet ($98) in Gold; Oscar de la Renta Crystal Station Bracelet ($355); Lulu Frost Dreamlink Bangle ($190).
Beauty Notes
I'm still experimenting with my newly cut bob, but at the moment my favorite way to style it is with tousled waves. The key to my undone curls is Sebastian Matte Putty ($28), which gives my cropped hair texture without making it greasy. To take my look from day to night, I added a bold red lip courtesy of Revlon ColorBurst Lipstick ($9) in True Red. I usually keep my eye makeup minimal, so I count on the lip color to create a little drama for an evening event.
Tapestry garments may look lavish, but lucky for our bank accounts they don't have to cost a lot. Select your piece depending on your comfort level: you can test the waters with a combat boot, take it to the next level with a tuxedo vest, or fully commit in a pretty sleeveless dress.
Love, Zooey Cotton Jacquard Sleeveless Blazer ($242); River Island Cream Tapestry Print Waisted Dress ($65); Dr. Martens Floral 1460 Lace-Up Boots ($130).
P.S.: Do you have a trend you're not quite sure how to wear? Leave a message in the comments, and yours truly might try it out! -Kat Collings
