|Key Info
Lake Garda is the largest lake in Italy and covers an area of approx. 370 km2. It lies in the north of Italy between Venice and Milan. It has both old charming villages and modern towns with all manner of facilities. It provides a very versatile holiday destination, where you can find peace and quiet, a wealth of opportunities for excursions and wild nightlife, not to mention the somewhat challenging experience of visiting the famous theme park Gardaland. Today the lake is considered one of the best places around for hang-gliding, paragliding, windsurfing and mountain biking. Pleasant climate and fantastic countryside.
The cities of Verona, Mantova, Trento and Brescia are easily accessible by car or train.
Lazise is a pretty little town on the south shore of Lake Garda. Here you will find monuments from the Roman period, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. The city has a very nice historic center with restaurants, bars, cafes and shops. From Lazise you can easily reach the surrounding towns such as Garda, Bardolino and Peschiera del Garda, offering trains to the major cities in the region (for example Verona, Venice).
Residence Sole del Garda, built in 1987, consists of 60 convenient apartments with a swimming pool and a childrens pool at 1500 m from the center of Lazise and 900 m from the lakeshore. Furnishings are essential but sufficient. The apartments are situated near "in" places like the splendid restaurant La Bohème and its popular Piano Bar, a fact that has been considered in the price calculation. Non suited for guests who love tranquillity and quiet but very popular with children.
20 apartments are rented on a total of 60.
Sol I/6: small apartment for 2/4 persons, with simple but sufficient furniture, on the first floor of a building with 10 apartments in the popular residence Sole Del Garda.

His research focuses on the translation of neuroscience discoveries into devices to help patients with neurologic disease or injury. His research has been published in leading journals such as Nature, the New England Journal of Medicine, and the Journal of Neuroscience. As Principal Investigator and lead Clinical Investigator of the pilot clinical trials of the BrainGate2 Neural Interface System, he has earned a prestigious Doris Duke Clinical Scientist Development Award and research grants from the Department of Veterans Affairs and the National Institutes of Health. Dr. Hochberg received his Sc.B. with Honors in Neural Science from Brown University in 1990. He received his MD and PhD from Emory University in 1999, where he was continued an intern in Internal Medicine. He was a resident and Chief Resident in Neurology at MGH/BWH/Harvard Medical School, where he also completed a fellowship in Stroke/Neurocritical Care in 2004.
ResearchDr. Hochberg's research focuses on the development and testing of implanted neural interfaces to help people with paralysis and other neurologic disorders. His research, which has appeared on the cover of Nature and was featured on CBS 60 Minutes, is supported by career development awards from the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation and the Department of Veterans Affairs, as well as a Merit Review award from the VA and an R21 and R01 award from the National Institute for Deafness and Communication Disorders. He is the IDE Sponsor-Investigator and principal clinical investigator of the pilot clinical trials of the BrainGate2 Neural Interface System.
Visit Dr. Hochberg's Research Investigator Profile for more information.
Dr. Leigh Hochberg from the Department of Neurology at Massachusetts General Hospital is using neurotechnology to harness brain signals that accompany movement. The ultimate goal of the work is to "turn thought into action," with the hope of one day assisting people with ALS, spinal cord injury and stroke to regain control over their environment.
Nearly 15 years after a stroke left her paralyzed and unable to speak, 59-year-old Cathy Hutchinson controlled a robotic arm to lift coffee to her mouth and take a drink by thinking about moving her own arm.
Massachusetts General Hospital investigators collaborate with clinical staff to generate new knowledge and discuss innovations at the First Annual Critical Care Research Retreat.
"THIS IS ONE OF MY favorite days of the year," said Robert Kingston, PhD, chief of MGH Molecular Biology and chair of the Executive Committee on Research (ECOR) in his welcome address at the March 20 Celebration of Science event, held in conjunction with the 66th annual meeting of the hospital's Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC).
Three projects led by MGH investigators were named among the Clinical Research Forum's Top 10 Clinical Research Achievements of 2012 at the organization's annual meeting on April 18.
Scientists at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) have initiated the BrainGate2 pilot clinical trial to expand restorative neurotechnology research for some patients with paralysis.
An investigational implanted system being developed to translate brain signals toward control of assistive devices has allowed a woman with paralysis to accurately control a computer cursor at 2.7 years after implantation, providing a key demonstration that neural activity can be read out and converted into action for an unprecedented length of time.

Go Find It
Street art has always been a place for creative freedom. Due to its very nature it's also a maverick art, with the varying and diverse styles found being part of its appeal. From Shoreditch in London where works by the likes of Banksy, Invader and Sweet Toof live side-by-side – enlivening the streets with their subversive and eye catching design, to Berlin, where they've turned the notion of graffiti on its head by using jet sprays with stencils to clean parts of a dirty wall, producing a new piece of art. Being displayed on the streets that are so familiar to us, it often remains hidden, as our familiarity blinds us to it.

New dimensions at Citi Field resulted in more HR
Last winter, the Mets re-worked Citi Field's outfield dimensions to make the ballpark more fair.
The new dimensions resulted in 21 additional homers for the Mets and 24 for their opponents, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports, according to a season-long MLB.com study.
According to the report, the new dimensions helped David Wright hit four more home runs in 2013, which led to six more RBI.
The team said last season (when debuting the changes) that they estimated the alterations would result in 50 additional home runs.
Terry Collins told reporters at the end of this season that there are no additional adjustments planned for this winter.
Matthew Cerrone, Lead Writer
It's a good start. In some ways, the fact that each side hit roughly the same number of additional home runs makes last winter's decision more valid than had the opposition hit two or three times more at Citi Field than the Mets (despite their being an overall increase). The numbers being close suggest the ballpark is more neutral for everyone (which was the goal and the definition of neutral).
I have heard people say Sandy Alderson would love to add 25 to 30 home runs to the team's total, which would put them in the upper echelon of this category in the National League. This cannot be done by moving fences, only by acquiring better power hitters.
Lucas Duda hit just 15 home runs last season (more on the road than at home). Also, Wright hit 21. So, just slightly more power from Wright plus more production from Duda (as he matures) will get the Mets in that upper tier in home runs, which would also likely get them up around 700 runs scored, without making a single acquisition. Of course, no one knows what to make of Duda and Wright isn't getting younger, so outside help is still needed.
That said, it's worth noting that – while some playoff teams hit for little power in 2012 (like the Giants, who were dead last yet going to the World Series) – four of the five playoff teams in the NL scored more than 700 runs (with the Reds scoring 669). The Mets were 12th overall with 650.
And I think that's the point, Alderson's real goal is probably less about power and more about overall run production – home runs are simply the quickest and easiest way to get there (assuming the team does a better job of getting on base more in advance of those home runs).

Speaking of adoring things- we also adore Always Maylee, the blog of a stylish Bostonian named Yi-chia. We love her style, especially this royal blue sweater paired with a black and white patterned dress (disguised as a skirt) and black tights. As Yi-chia points out, "wearing dresses as skirts…essentially doubles your collection of skirts."
Brit & Co never ceases to impress us with their DIY home and style projects. This week: how to create chic and colorful cork coasters. We're obsessed with the turquoise and purple chevron set.
We loved stumbling upon a blog post called Blush & Gold on Brunch at Saks- especially after we just created a set called Usher in Spring with Pink & Gold over on Polyvore! We want that sunburst mirror, the gold votives, and the Mary McDonald pink and gold lamp.
We adore the one pieces that Emily of Dear Serendipity highlighted recently. Is it bathing suit weather yet?! Because we want to pop on that chevron suit by Zinke and jump into the water!
And speaking of transitioning to warmer weather…sheer blouses are the perfect winter to spring top and luckily, Michelle of Fierce & Fashionable has a few suggestions for cute styles, like an adorable colorblocked one from Forever 21.
When we saw the tongue-in-cheek title "Everything's All White" on Shut Up I Love That Shirt on You (yes, that's the name of the blog!), we had to take a look. Not surprisingly, we love Taylor's white picks, like that Tibi shift dress and the Alexander McQueen tote in Bleached White.
We're big fans of Adored by Alex, a fun blog we stumbled upon. Our pick of the week: a post on adorable clutches. We especially love the peach colored Clare Vivier and the beaded Juicy Couture clutch in Gold/Angel.

GOUVERNEUR The attorney for suspended Gouverneur village police officer Steven M. Young hammered interim Police Chief Gordon F. Ayen Jr. during an administrative hearing Tuesday about his clients right to take gas from the village tank as the fire department chief.
Mr. Young was suspended with pay in September pending a state police investigation into whether he inappropriately used village gasoline. The village suspended him without pay Dec. 30 and brought a series of Civil Service charges, mostly violations of the rules of conduct of the police department, including conduct unbecoming an officer, abuse of position, unsatisfactory performance and untruthfulness.
The criminal investigation is in the hands of St. Lawrence County District Attorney Mary E. Rain. No criminal charges have been filed.
The village accused Mr. Young of pumping gas four times last summer into his personal pickup truck from the village tank behind the municipal building, using an E2 key that ostensibly was designated for the police department but was in the possession of the fire department, rather than the E6 key that was for fire department use.
As chief of the fire department, Mr. Young was entitled by contract with the village and with department permission to recoup his gasoline use, his attorney, Michael F. Young, said. Michael Young and Steven Young are not related.
Its still gas hes entitled to whether he takes it from E2 or E6. It may be in the wrong column, but hes still entitled to it, said Michael Young, comparing what his client may have done with filling in a number in the wrong place on a tax return form.
All of the gas in the tank belonged to the village, not to the departments and agencies that could use it, Michael Young said, so his client committed no crime.
I guess its a matter of perception, Mr. Ayen said. Its taken out of the police department account.
Steven Young should not have had the E2 key that he used to pump gas into his truck, Mr. Ayen said.
We believe he had a responsibility to find the owner of that key, he said.
Michael Young also picked through the dozen Civil Service charges against his client. He accused the village of piling on the charges, most of them based on the allegation that his client committed petit larceny.
The village never asked Steven Young to explain his actions or to repay the police department because he had taken gasoline from the wrong account, his attorney said.
Mr. Ayen was the only witness Tuesday. The hearing is to resume with his continued testimony at 9 a.m. Thursday.

Melissa Princehouse
The following is the transcript of an interview conducted with Melissa Princehouse
1. Give a brief description of your research:
The research I'm assisting with is a diet and exercise intervention working with premenopausal women trying to reduce the risk factors of Metabolic Syndrome.
2. What do you like about research?
My research opportunity has given me a much more hands on approach that can often be missed in a classroom. I am able to interact frequently with participants who are in a process of trying to change their dietary habits, which is very hard for many. I am getting a firsthand approach of what is working for different individuals and what they are struggling with. What I'm learning from talking to participants is easily going to be applicable to my future career aspirations.
3. What are your struggles with research and what have you done (if anything) to overcome these struggles?
One of the biggest issues I've faced is time management. With the research I'm working on there are definitely weeks that require more hours than others and it's making sure you're able to balance school, research and any other activities so I can give my best effort at everything I'm a part of.
4. Did you work closely with a mentor? If so, what are the benefits you have gained from this kind of relationship?
I've been working with both the lead research and even more frequently the doctoral student for the study. This is an excellent opportunity to get to know faculty and staff within your college which isn't something many students at a college this size are able to experience. They are able to share advice from a perspective of someone who knows exactly what you're going through. Also, you are able to gain meaningful letters of recommendation which are crucial when applying for certain scholarships, awards, internships and further schooling.
5. What are the benefits, in your opinion, of participating in undergraduate research?
Research has given me a firsthand look at what goes into research and how much work it really is. This is an eye opening experience when trying to decide whether I want to go onto graduate school, or begin working. And if you have completed some kind of research opportunity in your undergraduate career, it will definitely make you competitive amongst other applicants.
6. What advice would you give other undergraduates seeking research or preparing to participate in research for the first time?
Be proactive. If you have any kind of an idea you are interested in research, start talking to people and looking at different opportunities. It takes time to get involved with research and you don't want to miss an opportunity because you second guessed if it was for you. If you have any interest, talk to a faculty member, they can probably help you figure out if a research opportunity is a good fit for you at the time.
7. Any other thoughts?
If you are interested in research at all, begin to pursue opportunities today. It's a very unique learning opportunity that you don't get from a classroom setting.

The Orioles have added LHP Chris Jones to the 40-man roster.
If you read my report above, I think Jones is a LOOGY . So essentially the Orioles now have multiple LOOGY on their 40-man with Brian Matusz , Mike Belfiore , Jones and arguably Troy Patton as well. Seems to me that they have enough depth at that position for the time-being. Will be curious to see if they shop any of those guys around (albeit they probably do not have much value on the market)

So far this Summer, I'd grade all the moves by Mullin as a C-. Giving a player like Maggette $7.5M a year, who doesn't make this team much better, was just a bad move. I like Turiaf and he adds much needed bulk to a front court made up of chopsticks like Wright, Biedrins, and Randolph. The only move that I really like is for Marcus Wiliams. I was an advocate of the Warriors drafting him two years ago instead of Patrick O'Bryant and feels that if he can get over his history of attitude issues, he could become a very productive NBA point guard. He's has a chance to become a Deron Williams type guard.
(1) You take the $12M that they gave to both Maggette and Turiaf, then you have Josh Smith. If the Warriors were to put an offer sheet of 5 years and $65M, I highly doubt that Atlanta would of matched it. They invested the #3 overall pick and a good amount of money to Marvin Williams, who plays the same position.
(2) This is where it would really take some guts because everyone is so enamored by Monta Ellis, but to tell you the truth, I'm not. They're going to pay this guy $12M a year not knowing what position he's going to play. Thats an awful lot of money to give a guy with so many questions marks. He doesn't have the ball handling or passing skills to become a great point guard and he doesn't have the size or defense to become a great shooting guard. Why pay someone that kind of money if you know that he can't guard his position? He's quick, athletic and has a nice mid-range game. That hardly screams out $12M a year. Not only that, if this team doesn't win in 2 years, he's going to demand to be traded because of his ego and desire to play in a bigger market..like New York. They should get on the phone and discuss a sign and trade with Philly for Andre Iguodala. Iguodala will benefit being in an uptempo system while Philly fans a player that they'd want in Ellis. At this points, Ellis' value is a tad higher than Iguodala.
(3) Send Harrington to the Cavaliers for Anderson Varejao and Aleksander Pavlovic. This is a trade that would that would benefit both teams.
(4) Send Stephen Jackson and Marco Belinelli to the Raptors for Andrea Bargnani, Joey Graham, and Jamario Moon. Imagine a Eastern line up of Calderon, Belinelli, Jackson, Bosh and O'Neal. A team that can contend with the best of them in the East.
The Line up:
PG Williams - Watson
SG Iguodala - Pavlovic
SF Smith - Randolph - Moon
PF Wright - Bargnani
C Biedrins - Varejao - Hendrix
Gutsy Trades

hmmm strong opinions there B.A.H.
I would grade Mullin this offseason a B (but in 2 years it can be an A). Now I think at times members in the board can fo overboard for the love of certain players (AKA Azubuike), but monta ellis is not overrated. The kid can flat out play. It doesnt matter what position he plays or not, when a guy can play ball, thats all that matters Long Term deal for monta is worth it.
Now i personally would of perfer mullin going for the gold this season, rather then the build up approach he is doing. I would of want a sign and trade of Baron for a couple solild vets (ala Billups and Wallace, and become contenders this year). But i praise him for thinking short term and long term with this club (I wrote a fire mullin thread a couple months earlier, that was premature in my part.)
The bench looks strong for this club, though are starters as a whole might be just average. But the potential for Ellis, Biedrin still high. We have plenty of youth teameven if half become busts, one or two can still become stars. Turiaf brings size, marcus is a pure PG and still young and can go higher.
I like are look. for this season, and the future.

Hey there BayAreaHoopz...
I think you are underestimating Maggs. While not a tier 1 superstar, this guy is a legit scorer and rebounder. Also gives us an element that we dont have and that is someone who can get to the line at will late in games if we are struggling to get points.
I think that is overly simplistic to say the we offer 12 million for smith, he is ours. Not a chance Atl does not match that. There is a reason why a 22 year old, on the verge of stardom PF has not received ONE offer yet... it is because executives around the league know Atl will match that sort of offer and they dont want to handcuff their cap room. If we made that offer to Smith, we would have lost out on the opportunity to acquire Maggs, Turiaf, etc and STILL would not have ended up with Smith.
Believe me, if we had come out of this offseason with Smith however we did it, I would have loved that. But him being a RESTRICTED FA really complicated things.
I agree with you to a point here. I am very concerned about paying Monta this type of money. I just dont know if he is that type of player.
We have our Varejao in Turiaf. While not as good of rebounder, he is better offensively and as good if not better defender.
No chance Raptors do that and not even sure that helps us. But I AM of the opinion that Belinelli will never be a starter in this league and will never be anything more than a situational role player.
But I like the outside the box thinking. I do wish we could have ended up with Smith but I am happy with the way things have turned out as an alternative.

time to poke some holes in some arguments(':mrgreen:')
Josh Smith will never leave ATL this year.the guy above me had it right.
Keep Ellis... yeah hes not tall, but neither is Iverson. Monta has a long way to go to get to Iverson's level, but he has the god given talent to get there. And I think he is a hard worker with a small ego (member his MIP award) - I mean for a man with his talent, aren't you impressed he doesn't jack up three's left and right like the rest of our team? He just doesn't KNOW how to defend because no ones ever forced him to be a good defensive player. the man scored 72 f'ing points in a high school game - you think anyone gave a damn if he got in a defensive stance after he was done wowing the crowd and scouts on the other end? hell no! and fvck if anyone in Oakland has ever taught him anything.
As much as I like a Defensively minded team, how many NBA All-Star guards really play great D? I'm outraged that kobe got second team last year cause he really didn't deserve it. and I'm not the only one. I've heard pundits say the same thing.
If Ellis ever develops a three point shot (and with a mid-range stroke as solid as his who's to say he won't?)... watch out man. Although I agree we need to at least figure out his position by the end of next year. every year this goes on is another year we can't figure out the perfect roster.
Varejao < Al Harrington (as much as I want Al to leave) and we really don't need another shooting guard in Sasha Pavlovic (esp since he's over-rated).
we need to keep jackson as a leader. without him the team has no captain/veteran to steer us in the right direction.
I agree with you that Bellenelli is never going to be a star - people here need to get off his stun (backwards) and realize that summer league doesn't mean diddly.
Wright isn't ready to take over the PF position. Unless ur ready for a really bad rebuilding season. and I don't think anyone is ready for that after building up so much momentum the past couple of years.
I think Maggette will really shine in blue and gold. just like Paul Pierce wasn't a truely big name until he got some help, Maggs will finally have some legit teammates. maybe five years is a little extreme however its still a good move.
U-Dough, the BAKER®
Play nice you two

MASSENA - Three years ago Michelle Cook was a teenage girl who hadnt boxed a day in her life, but now she finds herself on the cusp of stardom, just days away from a trip to Spokane, Washington, where she will compete in the USA Boxing National Championship Tournament.
Ms. Cooks trainer and fiance, Atsiaktonkie, who also goes by the name Doogie, said theyll be leaving for the tournament today, bringing along with them their 16-month-old daughter, Konwanihara and Ms. Cooks sister, Robbi Cook.
Doogie said from what hes heard it appears Ms. Cook will be competing against eight other fighters in the 125-pound featherweight division.
Ive seen some of them on Youtube and some of them have their own pages for being Olympic Hopefuls, Doogie said, adding three of the other fighters, in addition to Michelle have been designated by USA Boxing as Olympic Hopefuls.
The contingent, which will be representing Standing Rock Boxing Club is scheduled to leave this afternoon. Doogie said registration and physicals will be held on Saturday, with the tournaments brackets and seedings being determined on Sunday.
Just last week, Doogie said they had only raised $1,650 toward the $5,000 they needed to fund the trip, but since that time, the community has really come together to help make Ms. Cooks championship dreams come true.
I was in a constant panic, he said. I didnt know if we would raise enough money or not, but everyone else around me was keeping me calm. When asked if they were ever in danger of not actually being able to go to the tournament, Doogie, who is also a musician, said he wasnt going to allow that to happen.
I always knew she was going to make it, he said. I was going to sell my music equipment if I had to.
While the donations may have been slow coming in, once word was received that the trip may have been in jeopardy, Doogie said help started coming in.
In addition to receiving help from many private citizens, he said businesses from as far away as Watertown contributed to the efforts with Mr. Subs in Watertown making a donations. They were joined by the Akwesasne Convenience Store Association, Java Veterinary, Twin Leaf, Tarbell Management Group, The Akwesasne Womens Singing Society, Within Reach, the Mohawk Council of Akwesasne, Super 8 Motel, Dairy Queen and the Adirondack Association of USA Boxing.
We would like to thank all of the businesses and organizations that stepped forward to help make Michelles Olympic dream come true, Doogie said.
Ms. Cooks success had led the pair to be eying a professional debut this spring.
Our whole goal was to go pro in May, but that changed when she won the regionals, Doogie said. Now were shooting for the Olympics.
As for what shes thinking heading into the biggest tournament of her life, Ms. Cook said she knows shes in for some tough fights, but shes confident that the trip will be worthwhile.
These are going to be some of the toughest fights Ive ever had, she said. Im training hard and Im training to win.
Ms. Cook said if she didnt think she could win, she wouldnt even bother going.
You always have to be confident going into the ring, she said. If youre not confident, whats the point of going?
When asked how the tournament could potentially change her life, Ms. Cook said shes not expecting to change even if she wins it all and returns home to Massena a national champion.
The biggest change would be not fighting in regular club shows and fighting in international events, she said.
Doogie said, while Ms. Cook may not change as a person, a good showing in Spokane would definitely put her and Massena back on the boxing map.
We want to represent our area and make Massena, Akwesasne and the entire north country proud, he said.
Should things go well, Doogie said theyll hold a press conference at the gym when they return home prior to her first international fight.
Doogie said USA Boxing participates in 13 international events each year, noting that Ms. Cook, who is 20 now would be 23 years old and in the prime of her career in 2016 when the next Summer Olympics rolled around.
When asked if she ever envisioned herself trying out for the Olympics, Ms. Cook said she had no idea what began as a hobby would take her this far. Doogie on the other hand, said he knew she was a special fighter from the very beginning.
I saw it the first time I did mitts with her. Nobody believed me then, but they do now, he said. What everybody sees now, I saw on that first day.

|School Support
For many years, most states have had strategies to support and improve low-performing schools. With the passage of the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act, states and districts are required to provide technical assistance to schools that do not make adequate yearly progress (AYP) for two or more consecutive years. Given the continuum of interventions schools face if they do meet AYP goals, the state role in building local capacity and improving low-performing schools is more important than ever.
The link(s) to the left lead to information and reports on NCLB school support and related issues.

About us…
Help support your Meetup
Hello World!
Have you spawned?
Do you live in or near Fayette County, Georgia and want to meetup with other local Geeks (living in the Peachtree City, Fayetteville, Tyrone, Hampton, Newnan or Griffin areas)?
Do ANY of the following phrases have meaning or resonate in your heart?:
Han shot first; Captain, we are being hailed; Cylons and Daleks and goram reavers; In brightest day, in blackest night; Kneel before Zod!; all your base are belong to us;
Android, Apple, ubuntu (or any *nix);
nes; binary;
Why so serious?
Excelsior True Believers!
... Then you're one of us!
Join your comrades in this Guild of Calamitous Intent to socialize || geek out
We like to share, discuss and enjoy all things geeky! Who says we have no social skills?... :-)
Still not sure?... (see definition below from Wikipedia)
excerpted From Wikipedia:
- A person with a devotion to something in a way that places him or her outside the mainstream. This could be due to the intensity, depth, or subject of their interest. This definition is very broad but because many of these interests have mainstream endorsement and acceptance, the inclusion of some genres as "geeky" is heavily debated. Persons have been labeled as or chosen to identify as physics geeks,mathematicsgeeks, engineering geeks, sci-fi geeks, computer geeks, various science geeks, movie and film geeks (cinephile), comic book geeks, theater geeks, history geeks, music geeks, sport geeks, art geeks, philosophygeeks, literature geeks, historical reenactment geeks, video game geeks, and roleplay geeks.
- A person who is interested in technology, especially computing and new media. Geeks are adept with computers, and use the term hacker in a positive way, though not all are hackers themselves.
- A person who relates academic subjects to the real world outside of academic studies; for example, using multivariate calculus to determine how they should correctly optimize the dimensions of a pan to bake a cake.
- A person who has chosen concentration rather than conformity; one who passionately pursues skill (especially technical skill) and imagination, not mainstream social acceptance
Important Note about events: We may have several organizers and each is allowed to set up their own meeting criteria (such as ages, singles only, no children, etc.) Certain meetups such as those at restaurants, bars, attractions, ticketed events, etc. may have a minimum age requirement as well. If uncertain, please confirm before attending an event.

The street style darlings may change every season, but there's one group of girls we're always interested in seeing: off-duty models. During Fashion Month--a.k.a. the S/S 13 shows in New York, London, Milan, and Paris--outfit inspiration can be found on every corner, as these long-limbed ladies trek from one end of the city to the next in covetable designer pieces and effortlessly chic ensembles. We think these thrilling looks deserve a moment in the spotlight, which is why we've corralled our favorite off-duty ensembles for this special installment of What They Wear. Featuring a mix of adored alums and a few notable new faces, today's story promises not only to be easy on the eyes, but is packed with tons of styling tips too!
Tian Yi
We love the way Tian Yi styled her Joe Fresh Short Sleeve Turtleneck Sweater ($29) and Rag & Bone skinny jeans with a plaid Uniqlo scarf and camel-colored MICHAEL Michael Kors' Hamilton Satchel ($298). The sporty color-block sweater and easy-on-the-feet sneakers are practical and cute, while her classic tan bag and tartan scarf add a little timelessness to her ensemble.
Get The Look: David & Young Cashmere Oversized Plaid Shimmer Scarf ($45); Lands' End Cash Touch Plaid Scarf ($29); Steve Madden Bneptuun Satchel ($74).
Frida Gustavsson
Sweden native Frida Gustavsson offered a lesson in layering as she dashed between shows during New York Fashion Week. Starting with a thin silk cami and Prada wide-leg trousers as the foundation of her look, the model added a vintage printed kimono-style jacket styled under a menswear-inspired coat by Dagmar. So why does this work? The bright pattern breaks up the dark color palette, while the mix of textures and proportions lends dimension to the entire outfit.
Get The Look: Tibi Mila Silk Cami ($158); Banana Republic Collarless Double-Breasted Coat ($250); Topshop Floral Devore Kimono ($90); Free PeopleOpal Short Night Robe ($198); Vince Camuto Wide Leg Pants ($59).
Sara Blomqvist
Cold-weather color-blocking? Yes, please! Swedish stunner Sara Blomqvist showed us how it's done during Paris Fashion Week last month. The muted tones featured on her jacket and sweater complement each other without overwhelming the rest of the outfit.

Anja Rubik
Is there ever a moment when Anja Rubik doesn't look amazing? All signs point to no. Here, the Polish beauty stepped out in a calf-length charcoal coat paired with a cross-body bag and lace-up stiletto booties. Simply put: it's chic winter dressing at its best.

Caroline Brasch Nielsen
Denim on denim is one of those lingering trends we've yet to tire of, which explains why we're eager to imitate Caroline Brasch Nielsen's effortless take on the look. Her outfit is anything but one note, thanks to the way she contrasted a pale chambray shirt with patchwork jeans in a darker wash.

Hanne Gaby Odiele
Though we adore Hanne Gaby Odiele's more avant-garde sensibilities, there's something to be said about her pared-down looks too. The runway veteran most recently caught our eye in a fuchsia tee, which added a rich pop of color to her duo-tone Acne skirt. The addition of incredibly cool accessories--Acne's Pointy Ankle Boots ($630) and Valentino's Va Va Voom Small Flap Bag ($1895)--made for a noteworthy finish.

Lindsey Wixson
One of things we love most about Kansas native Lindsey Wixson is her down-to-earth sense of style. Though the 18-year-old tends to keep it simple in her off-duty hours, she'll personalize a basic jeans and t-shirt combo with a current classic-in this case, tassel-adorned loafers-for a sweetly unfussy look.

MORRISTOWN – Russell B. Lawrence III is running for Morristown town supervisor this year, advocating a new perspective in local government.
Mr. Lawrence said he is not running against the current supervisor, Frank L. Putman, who is seeking reelection. Instead, he said, Im running against complacency.
A 10-year resident of the village, Mr. Lawrence has also owned a camp on the St. Lawrence River within the town since 1987. Owner of the Island View Funeral Home in the village as well as the R.B. Lawrence Ambulance service, Mr. Lawrence is also currently a coroner for St. Lawrence County. He is not seeking re-election to that post.
I think Morristown has fallen into a rut. Morristown has got two remarkable natural resources: one is the people and two is the water, Mr. Lawrence said of Black Lake and St. Lawrence River.
Mr. Lawrence said the town has been in decline since the ferry to Canada was discontinued, the bypass on Route 37 was installed and Route 12 began quickly ushering people through the town to Alexandria Bay.
To combat that, Mr. Lawrence said, he wants to be focused on increasing development.
The budget is more about making payrolls and trying to maintain what they have, Mr. Lawrence said. They do a nice job, but there is nothing set aside for future development. I think we need to do something a little different to try to bring people to the area.
With the villages recent purchase of 130 acres of land connecting Bay Street with Main Street in order to build a road bypassing the aging bridge, Mr. Lawrence said the town should focus on helping the village use its leftover land for economic growth.
Its an opportunity to bring in new businesses and new residents and jump-start the community of Morristown, Mr. Lawrence said. Were a community of descending numbers and we need to try to pick ourselves up by our boot straps and turn ourselves around.
So far, Mr. Lawrence said, he has been talking with community members one on one in order to spread the word about his campaign.
Im trying to take a progressive approach to Morristown itself and try to get people to think in a new direction, he said.
Mr. Lawrence is a Republican. His candidacy sets the stage for a September primary against Mr. Putman.
The general election is Nov. 5.

On Jan. 14 and Jan. 15, Ballet West II dancers will visit elementary schools in Carbon County to perform an award winning educational program for local youngsters.
The educational program is designed to introduce students to the art form of ballet.
On Wednesday, Ballet West for Kids dancers will visit Sally Mauro Elementary at 10 a.m.. and Bruin Point Elementary at 1 p.m.
Thursday's schedule includes visits to Creekview Elementary at 8:45 a.m., Castle Heights Elementary at 10:15 a.m. and Wellington Elementary at 12:45 p.m..
Ballet West for Kids is an assembly presented by five Ballet West II dancers and a narrator.
During the course of two weeks, Ballet West will send out the small troupe to present the show free of charge to faculty and students at a total of 44 schools across Utah.
The program is designed to reach every public elementary school in the state once every five to six years.
The rotation allows all elementary school children in Utah to experience at least one Ballet West presentation, according to the education program representatives.
"Arts in education is nationally recognized to enrich and broaden the academic achievements of students," explained Peter Christie, Ballet West's director of educational programs. "We believe that making the art form more accessible and personal for children de-mystifies the art form without taking away its charm."
The current presentation is titled "Ballet and The Sleeping Beauty."
The cast follows a script that includes a brief history of ballet written for young audiences and a choreographed example of a daily class.
Also included are personal explanations from the professionals about basic ballet positions and technique, good posture and health, music appreciation, and career dedication.
The elementary students are invited to participate in demonstrating how everyday movements are similar in rhythm, shape and dynamics to ballet steps.
Next, the dancers, dressed as characters from The Sleeping Beauty, demonstrate the techniques of pantomime, pointe work, use of a prop and pas de deux - two dancers partnering.
At the conclusion of the program the audience enjoys a miniature performance of The Sleeping Beauty ballet.
"We have had a tremendously positive response from the schools we visit," explains Christie, who receives multiple letters of appreciation following each program.
Ballet West for Kids program is provided to the public school system free of charge because of funding from the Utah Legislature and Salt Lake County's zoo, arts and parks program. The funds make it possible for the program to visit rural districts as well as some schools with enrollment as low as 26.
The educational service exposes approximately 57,000 children to the art of ballet.
