Grande Collection - Engineered
From a smooth, elegant finish to rustic, wire brushed and hand scraped styling, the Grande Collection covers all the bases. A solid layer of birch, maple or hickory sits atop a durable cross-ply construction. This allows for installations in rooms like basements or other areas where you need to install over a concrete slab. And because it's protected by 7 coats of UV cured polyurethane, this engineered wood flooring is as tough as it is stylish. Westhollow prides itself on their commitment to providing top-quality at discount hardwood pricing. It's probably why we sell so much of it.

Five generations of chemists in the Blockx family have been working since 1865 to perfect the Blockx Oil Colors. Today they are still ground on stone rollers and mixed with poppyseed or linseed oil, and no additives or fillers whatsoever.

Lead White is a fast drying, heavy consistency, flexible, opaque white with a very subtle reddish-yellow undertone and excellent covering capacity. Most artists stopped using this pigment over the last century because of its toxicity, but its working properties are positive enough to keep some artists using it. It is the most structurally sound white for underpainting. Lead White is quick drying, and it will help accelerate the drying time of any color it is mixed with.
Lead White has excellent permanence and lightfastness. However, it may become discolored over long periods of time.
Lead White is highly toxic by both inhalation and ingestion
Lead White has historically been the most important of all white pigments. The use of this pigment dates back to the days of the ancient Greeks and Egyptians. It was the only white used in European easel painting until the 19th century, and it is one of the oldest synthetically produced pigments. It has been mostly replaced by Titanium White and Zinc White, depending on the opacity the artist desires.

[♪ music playing ♪] [Adobe Marketing Cloud] When I talk to other people about testing I like to say that there is this pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, and I've already found it. It's fame, it's success, it's promotion, it's all these wonderful things. My name is Jennifer Towns. I'm a digital marketer. I'm the Director of Retention Marketing at AOL. I think my biggest challenge is backlog. I entered into a situation where I could make a real difference, and the low-hanging fruit was so vast. I feel like in nine months in the amount of tests that I've run, I'm still picking the fruit on the ground. The challenge that I face is I wish I had 20 more of me and 40 more of the people on my team. We've made such amazing differences in the very short period of time that we've been testing that I wish I could amplify that times 100 in a short period of time. We use Adobe Target primarily to segment our customer flows based on what we know about our customers and what our customer's needs are. We did a lot of research, a lot of focus groups that told us that our customers get to this dashboard, and they are very unsure. Their trust is very low. Primarily it's historical. They feel like AOL sells them things that sound free and then 60 days later they'll get charged. Well the reality of the business that we're in today is that we really are giving them these products. It seems kind of unbelievable to them. You get LifeLock, Norton, and McAfee. It occurred to us that a customer who comes to the web dashboard who has activated no products is certainly very different from someone who has activated one product or two products. So we ran the test. The dashboard has a hero space. It was not adding a ton of value before to be quite honest, and then it has a list of products and all of these calls to action. In the customers who have a zero-activation state, in the hero we addressed the pain points. We addressed the idea that yes, this is included in your subscription. It's safe. You can click on it. Here are the steps. It was in a 1-2-3 instructional format. We never did that before. We made the assumption that the customer already knew. Well low and behold, that instructional format in the hero placement generated a 63% lift in product activation. Big win. [Adobe]

The jurisdiction of the Lincoln Regional Office covers the 93 counties of Nebraska. The Regional Office provides benefits to approximately 147,928 veterans. The office oversees a benefits delivery program that awards over $363 million annually in compensation and pension benefits. The Regional Office presently employs 220 people. Its out-based offices are located at the VAMC-Omaha and the Air Force Base at Offutt.
While population is concentrated heavily in the eastern one third of the state, service to veterans and beneficiaries is provided to all areas, some as far as 500 miles from the Regional Office. Throughout Nebraska, our staff conducts training seminars, benefits presentations, performs outreach services, assists in emergency relief activities, and participates in a variety of community workshops, seminars, and public forums. The staff also participates in workshops for the County Veterans Services Officers.
On October 13, 2009, Secretary Shinseki announced his intent to establish presumptive service connection for Ischemic Heart Disease, Parkinson's disease, and Hairy Cell Leukemia for Veterans who served in the Republic of Vietnam. Under the Nehmer court order, VA must readjudicate previously denied claims for Ischemic Heart Disease, Parkinson's disease, or Hairy Cell Leukemia filed by Vietnam Veterans. With this announcement the Lincoln Regional Office's Development Resource Center became a Day One Brokering Center (D1BC) with a focus on Nehmer review and readjudication. The Lincoln Regional Office is currently responsible for processing over 5,300 claims from seven different Regional Offices. The seven different regional offices include Chicago, Milwaukee, Des Monies, Little Rock, Sioux Falls, Lincoln, and Wichita.
The Lincoln Regional Office has been chosen to serve as one of two Fiduciary Hubs within the Central Area. The Fiduciary Hub will be located within the Regional Office and will consolidate approximately one-half of the current Central Area fiduciary workload.
Pre-Discharge: In February 1998, the Lincoln Regional Office implemented an out-based initiative at Offutt Air Force Base. This initiative has permanently stationed two Military Service Coordinators at the base to assist in claims intake and preparation of disability rating decisions from separating and retiring service members. Starting in July Offutt Air Force Base will transition to the Integrated Disability Evaluation System (IDES). The Integrated Disability Evaluation System (IDES) simplified the disability evaluation process for current service members by eliminating duplicate disability examinations and ratings decisions.
With this new system and the presence of the Military Service Coordinators the service member will experience a smoother transition to Veteran status.
Homeless Veterans: The Regional Office serves as an information and referral source to the VA Nebraska-Western Iowa Health Care System and other agencies that have direct contact with homeless Veterans. All homeless Veteran's claims are expedited through the claim process to ensure that they are completed within 100 days. We have also established a liaison with the new Homeless Veterans Resource Center located on the grounds of the Omaha VA Medical Center. This center provides Veterans access to various VA services including psychosocial counseling, access to vocational rehabilitation training, and other ancillary services
eBenefits: We encourage our veteran population to enroll in the new web base program called eBenefits. eBenefits is your one-stop shop for online benefits-related tools and information. This portal is designed for Wounded Warriors, Veterans, Service Members, their families, and their caregivers. We invite you to explore eBenefits and become a registered user. The web address to eBenefits is www.eBenefits.va.gov

Tampa, Florida - New numbers show the national unemployment rate rose to 9.9% in April, up from the previous month.
Though 290,000 new jobs were created, the most in four years, for thousands of people in the Tampa Bay area about start looking for work for the first time, it could be a long wait.
For Genine Morton, putting on the cap and gown is a five year dream finally coming true.
But will all that hard work actually pay off?
Florida's unemployment rate is at a record 12.3%, and many new University of South Florida grads may soon be among them.
"It's kind of discouraging not to hear back from a job that you know you are qualified for," Morton explained.
It has elementary education major Kelly Budnick even searching in Korea for a job.
"To have to look outside of the United States for work, it's hard. It's scary," she said.
The job situation is especially concerning at USF, where a record 5,600 students will walk across the stage this weekend, many of them looking to head straight into the workforce.
"Employers that typically would have come to a college campus, even during previous recessions, didn't come this year," said Dr. Drema Howard, from the USF Career Center.
Career counselors say many graduates seeking entry level jobs are now competing against candidates with years of experience in their field.
"This economy has made it much more competitive for students," Dr. Howard told 10 Connects.
It means some new graduates may be waiting more than six months to find work.
"Now, it's like if you just have a bachelor's degree, OK, what else do you have to offer my company?" Morton said.
They're learning that cap and gown may not be worth as much as it once was.

PASADENA, Calif. -- "Famous" Jameis Winston may be more famous than ever after tonight.
The spectacular freshman led the Florida State Seminoles to a BCS Championship game win over the Auburn Tigers, 34-31, on Monday night.
The final touchdown pass to Kelvin Benjamin came with 13 seconds left on the clock.
This time there was no miracle finish for the "Team of Destiny". A last ditch lateral effort fizzled out and gave FSU the win.
Auburn looked like it would run away with the game after it jumped out to a 21-3 lead with around 5 minutes left in the 2nd quarter, but a resilient FSU team led by Winston scored three touchdowns in the fourth quarter to win its first title since 1999.
Winston finished with 237 yards passing on 20/35 attempts, 2 TDs and 0 interceptions.
The two best teams in college football are on the field at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California Monday night to play in the BCS Championship Game.
Florida State University holds the No. 1 spot in the BCS rankings while Auburn University claims the No. 2 spot.
Check back for updates.

Auburn 14, FSU 3
After a long drive, the FSU defense makes a stand to hold Auburn to a field goal, but Cody Parkey misses wide right. Score stands with 9:53 left in the quarter.
Marshall is on-fire.
After a fumble by Heisman Trophy winner Winston, Marshall scores on a 4 yard scramble to give Auburn a commanding lead.
Auburn 21, FSU 3
Auburn has 225 total yards while FSU has just 85 total yards.
Things getting brighter after aDevonta Freeman rush for 3 yards for a FSU touchdown on a drive that featured a fake punt rush for a first down.

Levonte Whitfield, a freshman from Orlando, goes the distance on the ensuing kick-off. FSU re-takes the lead.
FSU 27, Auburn 24 with 4:31 left in the game.
No stranger to late-game heroics, the Auburn Tigers easily drive down the field to score a touchdown.
Heisman finalist Tre Mason jukes and breaks tackles on his way to a 37 yard touchdown.
Auburn 31, FSU 27 1:19 left
"Famous" Jameis Winston just got a little more famous.
The Heisman winner leads FSU down the field and the drive is capped off with a game winning touchdown pass to Kelvin Benjamin to win the BCS National Championship.
Final Score: FSU 34, Auburn 31

Dear Members,
Keep in mind that Character Bashing is now prohibited. Making fun of certain characters/character pairings leads to a pointless thread filled with insults and general rule breaking.
Also, remember that Versus threads are allowed only in the Versus section.
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff

See the difference... While Jiraya said Minato is a genius, Minato said about Kakashi that he is a ninja prodigy being able to create chidori at such a young age. And the third lived to see all 3 of them and stated that his intelligence (Shikamaru's) is the highest in Konoha at that moment. But when it comes to tactical plans.
Each of them are in their own league.
I won't give you the fact that Minato wasn't bam, but while he thought at a single possibility, Shika did like multiple ones in a battle and was able to calculate which one suited the situation. And that in a short time as well.
jiraiya knows what he is talking about he is the pervert sennin who spies.
look at shikamaru when they encounter tobi he didnt formulate a plan. shikamaru=kakashi in intelligence it took them a while to figure.and minato is smarter than kakashi

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Republican Mitt Romney says President Barack Obama is misrepresenting GOP budget priorities as both men gear up for the fall election.
Romney told newspaper editors and publishers Wednesday that Obama is exaggerating the likely impact of a House Republican budget plan Romney supports. He said Obama claims the plan would make damaging, across-the-board cuts to many federal programs. Romney said the plan instead would eliminate targeted programs such as the 2010 Democratic overhaul of health care.
Romney also said Obama is being coy about his long-term plans for a missile defense system in Europe and other issues. He said now is not the time for a "hide and seek" strategy by a president seeking a second term.

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up that Mir2, GPUSA's last game other than Alteil, is closing down -- just in case anyone saw their annoncement and was worried about GPUSA's future. Don't worry, Alteil is here to stay, and arrangements have been made to insure it will be around for a long time (cue the Imperial Stormtroopers arriving to freeze Gon in carbonite) even if GPUSA shuts its doors.
So yeah, sorry to see you go, Mir2. We hardly knew ya.

New Hanover County officials have agreed to keep sheriff's deputies in all elementary schools for the rest of the year.
The sheriff's office provided officers at each elementary school in the county this month by paying overtime. The New Hanover County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously Monday to pay officers to stay the schools from Feb. 1 to June 15.
County officials estimate it will cost about $600,000 to provide officers for the rest of the year.
Officials plan to use 18 officers on overtime as well as six reserve officers.
This plan will split the cost between the county school board and county government.
Plans to add deputies to each elementary school came up last month after the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Conn.

What more can you ask for than "Sharkbait" vs. "The Devil," MMA style?
Titan Fighting Championship recently put the fight together, featuring undefeated up-and-comer Anthony "Shark Bait" Gutierrez against a more experienced Shane "The Devil" Hutchinson.
Gutierrez was out to prove his legitimacy as a featherweight prospect, and Hutchinson hoped to snap a disappointing losing streak.
Each week HDNet and MMAjunkie.com release a new and exclusive fight from
the ever-growing HDNet Fights video library. Stunning knockouts, slick
submissions, shocking finishes and legendary brawls are the norm for
this weekly feature.
Gutierrez vs. Hutchinson is no exception.
Gutierrez (3-0 at the time) was fighting for the fourth time in 2011, with all four bouts contested under the Titan Fighting Championship banner. "Sharkbait" earned stoppages in his first three fights, with all three ending via first-round submission. However, Hutchinson (4-11 at the time) represented Gutierrez's most-experienced opponent to date. "The Devil" was saddled with a four-fight losing streak at the time but was hoping to return to the win column.
The pair's seven combined victories entering the contest all came via submission, so grappling was expected to feature prominently in the matchup.
Would Gutierrez continue his climb, or would Hutchinson break his unfortunate streak?
Check out the embedded clip for the answer.
Each week MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) and HDNet Fights (www.hdnetfights.com) team up for "HDNet Fights Vault," which offer a new and unique video from the organization's ever-growing fight library.

While there's wisdom in that adage advising us to avoid judging books by their covers, when it comes to movies, I don't feel the least bit superficial when I admit that I'm swayed by an attractive cover- even if only a mildly interesting synopsis is on the back. When I recently saw the cover for Reaching for the Moon- sunshine, blue skies and a radiant, happy couple on a beach- I hurriedly borrowed it, learning only after that it is a drama depicting the real life love affair between renowned poet Elizabeth Bishop and Brazilian architect Lota de Macedo Soareswas.
While the film takes artistic liberties with actual events, its depiction of the romantic relationship between these two complex women is done in a way that feels as honest and real as a fictionalized account can, and, thankfully, is light on sentimentality; while Reaching for the Moon tells the story of women who are lovers, it is not a romance and its focus isn't only on their love. The lives of these talented, accomplished women, the places and times they navigate, their lifestyles, their complicated relationship and the poetry it all inspired are tastefully explored and make for a remarkable film, one far more interesting and and better told than many. I expect to be recommending it for quite some time.

Oreck® Orbiter® Sanding Screens 1 1
Very dissatisfied with this product One out of all the products that Oreck puts out this is the one I dislike and feel like I wasted money. The pads do not adhere as advertised so the pads slip out from under the unit and gets damaged quickly. I had expected more from a product that is at such a high cost. I feel as though there should be a way for the screens to actually adhere. I purchased the Orbiter in part because of a future refinishing project in the house and now I can't see how I can manage to do that project with this product. May 30, 2015

FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich. - What can be found on Rensellear Street in Farmington Hills could be called a bit of a miracle.
On Monday, there was a vacant lot sitting in the middle of the neighborhood. What can be seen now is a labor of love for a local family, and the entire neighborhood.
A time lapse video shows how quickly the new home rose from the ground. Volunteers from a group called Life Remodeled used donated materials and made something very special for Brad Goddard, whose family lives in a nearby apartment.
Watch: Time lapse video of Life Remodeled building home
"You could always have a place to stay, but this gives us a home someone can't take away no matter how tough things get," Goddard said.
Brad Goddard suffered a back injury four years ago while working on a construction site. His surgeries have not staunched the pain. Goddard thought nothing could solve his financial crisis. His daughter summed it up while looking at her new home under construction.
"That my room's gonna have a window that's not going to be broken," Maeli Sue Goddard said.
The work crew is not just building the house, it is helping rehabilitate other homes in the neighborhood. Pastor Chris Lambert, of Ecclesia Church, runs the program.
"We're changing a family's life and we're also changing this community around us," he said. "We're fixing people's homes. We've fixed about 40 different homes now."
But Brad Goddard's appreciation of a gift like this is the focus on Friday.
"It's hard to wrap our mind around it, you know, we still can't believe this is happening for us, and we're just really thankful for everybody that's been involved," he said.
Life Remodeled expect to finish construction of the house on Saturday. They will have a ceremonial handing over of the keys on Sunday, after everyone involved gives thanks.

Iceland-based container shipping company Eimskip says it will move its base of operations from Norfolk, Virginia, to Portland, Maine.
Eimskip General Manager Larus Isfeld told reporters this morning that Portland is a good fit for the company's North Atlantic shipping trade.
"It's Portland's rich history as a seafood hub and the cultural similarities between the population to the current markets we have in northern Europe," Isfeld said. "And the fact that no other steamship line is servicing the area - that's what makes Portland a unique opportunity for us."
Local and state officials say Eimskip's relocation will also offer Maine shippers a more cost-effective way to export or import product to northern Europe.
Eimskip will use the International Marine Terminal, which the Maine Port Authority recently renovated to attract more container shipping. In addition, Pan Am Railways says it may rebuild a spur track into the terminal to handle cargo from the container ship heading to or from other points in the U.S.

Sophie Delaporte for Comme Des Garçons' Idomenee Book
Posted by Cynthia | Filed under Musings
The artful and sculptural collection of Comme des Garçons, has been captured by Parisian photographer Sophie Delaporte for the new Comme Des Garcon's Idomenee Book. The graphic presentation of this collections color and contrast is perfectly styled by Kanako B.Koga. Appropriately, this fashion brand has been exhibited in museums through the years, as the attention to detail, form, and texture is dramatic and oh-so beautiful. While living in New York, I often visited the store in Soho to view new lines, as it offered an up close study in design and materiality, and frankly some fabulous and beautiful people watching. Always anticipated at Fashion Week, and of course, not one to disappoint. The modernity and simplicity of model, costume and backdrop, paired with deliberate lighting and exacting color, create a dramatic image filled with intensity and purpose. Enjoy.

WASHINGTON – A Manassas, Va. man has been charged with indecent exposure and other counts after police say he defecated inside of a 7-11 store.
Manassas City Police say Josue Soto Zamora, of the 7600 block of Quail Run Lane, was arrested Feb. 20. He reportedly was denied access to a bathroom inside of a 7-11 store on Cockrell Road in Manassas, and began yelling at a clerk.
Police say Zamora then pulled his trousers down and defecated inside of the store near the front entrance. Officers found him several minutes later on Center Street, and he was arrested and charged with public intoxication, disorderly conduct and indecent exposure.
Zamora was held at the Prince William County Adult Detention Center until he was no longer intoxicated, police say. Police did not have a court date for him.

Moreover, Arsany emphasized that LinkdotNet cooperates now with Telecom Egypt in order to resolve the problems faced by the customers in some Telephone Centrals such as Nasr City, Maadi, and Heliopolis, explaining that they witnessed some bottlenecks in the last period due to the increasing demand for internet services and the relatively low capacities as compared to the volume of use.
Furthermore, he asserted that the internet service providers in Egypt are looking forward to make Telecom Egypt finalizes the replacement of current copper cables with optical fiber cables that provide higher speeds so as to be in line with the government's target to offer high-speed internet, achieve broadband strategy and keep up with global internet speeds by 2020.

Make a conscious decision to focus on the fellowship, catching up on people's lives, relaxing, and the spirit of the season ... not on the food. Don't lose sight of what the holidays are really about.
Willpower won't get you far when you start soaking up the sights and sounds of the holidays.
You don't have to tell everyone you brought a high-response cost, high-yield food as your dish!
One of the worst mistakes you can make is to show up hungry and not have the right foods around. If you know you're headed to a target-rich environment, don't stack the odds against you.
If you've eaten three appetizers already, you should cut back on your entree.
Literally, where you're standing in the room can make a huge difference in how much food you end up eating.
Remember that alcohol slows your metabolism and reduces your inhibitions, which can lead to overeating.
That way, you'll only want a few bites of the other goodies that really aren't so good for you.
Keep an eye on each other to avoid overeating.
Plan what you're going to eat and write it down.

- "I have to report a crime. The Cullens, they've done something terrible."
- ― Irina talking about the Cullens to the Volturi.[src]
Irina (pronounced Ear-ee-na) was one of the original Denali "sisters", along with Tanya and Kate, and an originator of the myth of the succubus. She was a "vegetarian" and led a very peaceful lifestyle with her "family". The Denalis consider themselves to be the Cullens' extended family or "cousins". She and Laurent were in a relationship before he was killed by the shape-shifters in New Moon. Irina was killed by Caius to enrage her sisters, after giving false information to the Volturi about Renesmee Cullen.
Early life
Irina was the third vampire added to the Denali coven, after Tanya and Kate. As a human, she was a pretty peasant girl living in a small farm community. She physically resembled Kate and Tanya, and Sasha decided to change her with the idea of adding a new sister to her "daughters". Irina, Tanya, and Kate loved their mother as much as she loved them. They were orphaned by the Volturi because their mother was harboring an immortal child named Vasilii; a human child that was turned and therefore couldn't learn to control himself due to his primitive mind.
The sisters were responsible for the myth of the succubus, as they would have sexual relationships with human men before killing them. The Denali sisters later lived a vegetarian lifestyle to avoid slaughtering the men that they grew fond of, and became close friends of Carlisle Cullen and his family.
New Moon
- Main article: New Moon
After Laurent came to live with the Denali coven, Irina became incredibly drawn to him, and Laurent enjoyed her affection. But before they could move on to the next level, their relationship ended following Laurent's death at the hands of the Quileute shape-shifters when he attempted to kill Bella for her blood.
- Main article: Eclipse
When the Cullens asked for the Denali coven's aid against Victoria's newborn army, she wanted revenge on the wolves in exchange for their aid, but they disagreed and so the Denalis turned down their alliance temporarily.
Breaking Dawn
- Main article: Breaking Dawn
- "I'm sorry."
- ―Irina's last word to the Cullens and her family.[src]
In the books, Irina did not show up to Bella and Edward's wedding because she was still upset at the wolves for killing her mate Laurent. In the first movie, she did attend the wedding and had promised to behave, but felt utterly hurt when she saw Seth, one of the shape-shifters and refused to believe the Cullens about Laurent trying to kill Bella. After their brief confrontation, she left the reception.
Three months later, Irina was on her way to Forks to make peace with the Cullens when she suddenly saw Bella, Jacob, and Renesmee hunting from a distance. The moment she saw Renesmee, she was misled to believe that she was an immortal child that Bella and Edward had created, knowing that creating an immortal child is an illegal action. Irina ran to tell the Volturi, but not before Bella saw her.
A few days later, Alice foresaw the Volturi's decision to visit Forks, and explaining that she was not trying to predict their actions, but trying to find Irina, Bella came to the conclusion that Irina assumed that Renesmee was an immortal child and that she must have decided to go to the Volturi to tell them about Renesmee.
Irina arrived in Forks with the Volturi, with the intent to punish the Cullens. She was called upon by Caius to bear witness to Renesmee. She explained to the Volturi that she was upset because the shape-shifters killed Laurent, but the Cullens refused to let her avenge him. However, upon realizing her mistake, she no longer wanted to complain against the wolves or the Cullens and sincerely apologized to them for the situation she had put them through. The moment she said that she was willing to take full responsibility for her error, Caius signaled the guard and Irina was destroyed in front of all the vampires present. Caius merely looked on and proceeded to set Irina ablaze, as a plot to enrage Kate and Tanya into making the attack and starting the fight. Caius later justified this by saying that "now she has taken full responsibility of her actions". The situation did not turn for the worse and Irina's sacrifice was not in vain.
After the confrontation ended with only Irina's death, the Denalis returned home to mourn for their fallen sister and celebrate the addition of a new comrade, Garrett, who had become Kate's mate.
Physical description
- "Her hair was pale, pale blonde, almost silver. This was the gleam that had caught my eye. It hung straight as a ruler to a blunt edge at her chin, parted evenly down the center. She was a stranger to me. I was absolutely certain I'd never seen her before, even as human. None of the faces in my muddy memory were the same as this one. But I knew her at once from her golden dark eyes. Irina had decided to come after all."
- ―Bella, upon seeing Irina for the first time.[src]
Irina was described as being a vampire with straight, chin-length, silvery blonde hair, standing 5'2" and had golden eyes that turned black when she was thirsty. Her features were so beautiful that any man who saw her became mesmerized by her beauty.
In the Breaking Dawn films, her hair is wavy, long and it is of golden blonde color, usually combed in an updo. She stands at 5'9", the tallest of the Denali sisters, in the films.
Due to her mother's passing for creating an immortal child, Irina, along with her sisters, were "purists" when it came to vampire laws. For centuries, they had enjoyed the pleasurable company of men, both human and vampire, but learned to achieve monogamy when Laurent came into her life.
Irina is the deceased mate of Laurent, the youngest adoptive sister of Tanya, Kate and the deceased Vasilii, the adoptive daughter of Sasha and coven members with Eleazar and Carmen.
- Main article: Laurent and Irina
- "He wanted to be like us. To live in peace with humans. With me."
- ―Irina on Laurent.[src]
Laurent was Irina's mate. He came to Denali after he left James and Victoria. There, he and Irina met, and fell in love, though she was more serious about their relationship than him. However, Laurent had trouble sticking to the vegetarian diet, and occasionally hunted humans.
In March, he went back to Forks as a favor to Victoria to see if Bella was still under the protection of the Cullens. It was there that he got killed by the Quileute werewolves when he attempted to kill Bella Swan to sustain his own thirst, abruptly ending Irina and Laurent's relationship before they could move on to the next stage. Irina was enraged and deeply hurt by his death and because of this, the Denali coven were prevented from helping the Cullen family during the newborn crisis of Seattle. In the movie, Irina points out that she did not believe that Laurent had tried to kill Bella.
In Breaking Dawn, Irina's anger at the Cullens' refusal to let her exact revenge on the wolves continued, but it did not cloud her judgment, as she admitted her mistake and willingly accepted her punishment.
Tanya is Irina's eldest adoptive sister, as well as leader of the Denali coven after their "mother" was killed centuries ago by the Volturi at the crime of creating an immortal child.
Irina loved her and her siblings above everything else, which drove her to confess her mistakes in order to protect them. Tanya was so enraged by her death that she attempted to attack the Volturi to avenge her sister. Even though she did not act on her anger, she has been permanently scarred by Irina's death.
Kate is Irina's other adoptive sister, and the only one with a gift.
Irina loved her and her siblings above everything else, which drove her to confess her mistakes in order to protect them and resulted in her death. Kate was so enraged by her death that she attempted to attack the Volturi to avenge her, using her gift on anyone who attempted to stop her until Bella blocked her power and Garrett restrained her. Even though she did not act on her anger, she has been permanently scarred by Irina's death.
- "How could she do this thing?"
- ―Eleazar on Irina's "betrayal" of the Cullens[src]
Eleazar is a member of the Denali coven, who joined them with his mate Carmen after leaving the Volturi to lead a more peaceful existence. Eventually, they met the Denali sisters and found interest in their "unusual" lifestyle. Irina and her sisters invited the visitors to stay and try out their lifestyle, and eventually their stay became permanent.
- "Irina? Come meet Bella."
- ―Carmen to Irina.[src]
Carmen is a member in the Denali coven, and Eleazar's mate. Though it is not determined how close they really were, it seems they had a fairly mutual connection, as Eleazar points out that abstaining from human blood allows them to form true family bonds. No doubt, the loss of Irina had hurt Carmen as well as Tanya and Kate. In the movie adaption, she was shown grieving with Tanya and Kate after the Volturi confrontation.
Sasha was Irina's adoptive mother and founder of their coven. After creating Tanya and Kate, Sasha was intrigued with the idea of adding a new sister to them and found their physical features quite similar. It did not take long before Irina learned to love her new family, who in return loved her.
Losing their mother was a tremendous blow for all three of them, and in the aftermath of that loss, Irina and her sisters became purists of the Volturi's laws. Even after so many centuries, she and her sisters still mourned Sasha's death, without however quite forgiving her for her crime.

Irina is portrayed by Maggie Grace in both Breaking Dawn movies. Her character has been given the surname "Denali" in the films.

2015 UNHCR subregional operations profile - South-East Asia
| Overview |
Available protection space for refugees, asylum-seekers and stateless people in the region is fragile and unpredictable, due to a lack of national legal frameworks in most South-East Asian countries. Furthermore, some States have introduced increasingly restrictive policies - such as denying safe disembarkation or access at the airport, and narrowing protection space and access to asylum. There is also an increase in maritime "push backs" and instances of refoulement.
Only three States are parties to the 1951 Refugee Convention and only one State has signed the 1954 Statelessness Convention. The lack of asylum laws and diversity of national legal frameworks, as well as government practices and protection environments in the region's countries, make achieving regional harmonization challenging.
A major component of UNHCR's work remains to increase the protection space for all groups of concern and to advocate with States in South-East Asia to establish effective legal frameworks governing the protection of refugees and stateless populations. A significant number of refugees and asylum-seekers in the region reside in urban settings, and some States without national asylum systems consider them to be illegal migrants, thereby subjecting them to detention, expulsion, refoulement, and other serious protection risks. The lack of legal status also prevents people of concern from accessing the labour market and basic services, including health care and education.
The irregular movements of people of concern in the region pose grave dangers to those who undertake them, with an increase in maritime movements and a loss of life at sea. They also present serious challenges in balancing governments' international obligations to provide fair access to protection and asylum to those in need, with the need to combat people-smuggling and human-trafficking networks, and the legitimate interest of States to maintain control of national borders.
In Myanmar,escalating inter-communal conflict in Rakhine State in June 2012 resulted in internal displacement as well as outflows to other regional countries, including irregularly by sea. An increasing number of women and children are risking their lives in unseaworthy boats. There are reports of exploitation, violence, trafficking, forced labour, as well as abuse in transit perpetrated to extract additional payment from relatives.
UNHCR will advocate upholding the rights of people of concern and States' adherence to international protection standards, in cooperation with the governments concerned and with the support of regional institutions and civil-society actors. Such cooperation aims to promote government ownership of refugee protection, particularly regarding refugees' access to protection, basic services and registration.
Where the necessary conditions are in place, comprehensive solutions and approaches will be pursued, including local integration, voluntary repatriation, resettlement, labour options and temporary stay arrangements.
UNHCR in South-East Asia will focus on establishing protection-sensitive responses to mixed migration, registration and documentation. It will support access to asylum and refugee status determination (RSD), and promote alternatives to detention. Additionally, the Office will continue to implement strategies aimed at improving protection and durable solution prospects for urban refugees, including targeted assistance to the most vulnerable urban refugees, and preventing refoulement.
The organization will continue to work with States to promote and implement comprehensive protection-sensitive responses to irregular movements of people and mixed migration, through regional initiatives, including the Regional Cooperation Framework endorsed by the Bali Process. A Regional Maritime Movements Monitoring Unit has been established in the Regional Office for South-East Asia, based in Bangkok.
UNHCR will continue to collaborate with the Association of South-East Asian Nations (ASEAN) human rights mechanisms and other entities on statelessness and refugee protection. It will continue to promote birth registration among all populations of concern to prevent statelessness and increase child protection. In a number of key States, UNHCR is working with governments to help reduce statelessness among minority communities.
| Response and implementation |
Operations in Myanmar and Thailand are presented in separate country chapters. For other countries where UNHCR operates in the subregion, please see below.
In early 2014, the Government of Bangladesh announced its national strategy for Myanmar refugees and undocumented Myanmar nationals, acknowledging their need for basic humanitarian relief. UNHCR hopes that this will enable unregistered refugees to access international protection. Meanwhile, UNHCR provides protection and life-sustaining assistance to refugees residing in the two official camps, pending the identification of durable solutions. The organization advocates for the prevention of statelessness, more self-reliance opportunities for urban refugees and durable solutions.
In Indonesia, UNHCR continues to provide mandate protection to refugees and asylum-seekers in a number of urban locations through registration, RSD, documentation and processing for resettlement and repatriation, where possible. The detention of refugees and asylum-seekers and the widespread location of people of concern remain key protection challenges in Indonesia, particularly for a growing number of children and detainees with specific needs. To improve the protection environment, the organization will support the capacity of local authorities. It will also assist those with specific protection needs, though funding shortfalls limit the number of people likely to benefit.
In Mongolia, UNHCR will continue to conduct RSD while advocating for the Government to establish asylum procedures and to promote further measures to address statelessness including potential accession to the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons, and to the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness.
Malaysia is not party to the 1951 Refugee Convention and lacks a legislative and administrative framework to address refugee matters. As all asylum-seekers and refugees are treated as irregular migrants, and in the absence of any substantive engagement by the authorities, UNHCR remains the principal actor in providing international protection. The Office will continue to address the issue of statelessness, including by identifying and seeking to reduce the number of people with undetermined nationality at risk of statelessness. UNHCR will also advocate regularizing the legal status of people of concern including through alternative stay arrangements and labour migration schemes.
The Emergency Transit Mechanism for resettlement processing will continue in the Philippines. Efforts to strengthen the national protection regime,in collaboration with government agencies and humanitarian partners, will continue. A complementary protection framework for people falling outside the Refugee Convention definition will be pursued. In the southern Philippines, UNHCR will co-lead the protection cluster with the Government's Department of Social Welfare and Development, to coordinate a response to the internal displacement situation.
UNHCR also works with communities of Indonesian origin living in southern Mindanao, as well as relevant government authorities and civil society, to resolve the nationality status of 6,015 people of concern under UNHCR's statelessness mandate.
The organization promotes the civil registration of all people of concern, and is active in improving civil registration and vital statistics in Asia and the Pacific. The Regional Office is pursuing better refugee protection in Cambodia and Timor-Leste by supporting asylum procedures and capacity building, as well as working with the Government of Viet Nam to resolve the nationality status of the remaining populations of concern under UNHCR's statelessness mandate.
| Financial information |
Since 2011, the financial requirements in the subregion have been affected by various developments, including in Myanmar by population displacement in Rakhine State in mid-2012, the escalation of conflict in Kachin State and the possibility of refugees voluntarily returning to Myanmar from Thailand as the peace process continues. In the Philippines, UNHCR has been involved in the coordinated humanitarian response to internal displacement caused by a series of natural disasters, the most recent being Typhoon Haiyan in late 2013. The subregional budget for 2015 stands at USD 157 million.
|UNHCR 2015 budgets for South-East Asia (USD)
Revised budget
(as of 30 June 2014)
|1. Includes activities in Cambodia and Viet Nam (from 2015).

Creating Elements/Add-ons?
Do most Digi Scrappers create their elements in a cg program or do they scan them in and remove the background? Do most Digi Scrappers own their own printer or do they send their pages to shop? Pages are printed as a square, correct? 8x10 can be done by most printers but if you set it to landscape you would have difficulty finding an album? Do they only post the pages online? I have more questions but that is all I can think of now, and these have probably already been asked.
Hi mutt!
To answer your first question...YES! LOL. They do both.
Printing? You can print your own pages, if you do them at 8x10 or 8x8...some even have wide format printers that will do 12x12. However, in my experience, you're much better off watching for a good sale on printing, and getting your layouts printed during one of those events. We even have printing services here at GDS. You can check them out here.
I hope I was able to answer your questions a little bit, and be sure and speak up when you think of more!
I want to know the answer about how the elements are created too. I don't think I would ever even think of creating my own stuff, but am curious as to how everyone comes up with the gorgeous stuff they put in the kits.
Well yeah we can scan or photograph the elements and then extract them, as long as there are no blurry spots on the element. That to me is trickier than the extraction, lol. Then we can also make shapes and apply styles, like the metal frame in my Plum kit. I'm so bad at finding inspiration for elements though, and the fact that some people, like Dani, make commercial use items for us to manipulate and recolor can sometimes be a Godsend!

To answer your question
regarding horiztontal layouts (landscape) I know that Hobby Lobby has scrapbooks that are just for those types of layouts. They are set up differently than the regular 8.5x11.
I usually do layouts in 8x8 because they print nicely and can find some really cute 8x8 books. I also print 12x12 and put in the 12x12 frames. Those are the best presents. But lately, everything I have been doing is 8.5x11. Andrea a designer here has the best templates and come in the 3 formats I just mentioned. She is a fabotastic designer of templates. So that is a great place for you to start maybe.
