There are a few emcees that are famous for the debuts that they have not released, Large Professor, Cormega, Ali Vegas, Last Emperor to name a few. Yet, that list would not be complete without including New Jeruz's Pacewon, as his "true" debut, The Pacewon Effect, (an E-Bay favorite) was pushed back numerous times and eventually scrapped when Ruffhouse folded.
Introduced alongside his Outsidaz click on the Fugees "Cowboys", Pace quickly became the Method Man of the Outsidaz, as his charisma and metaphorically rich lyrics made him the crews shining star. While Pace's Won will attract scant interest from the heads who hit the Net to burn Pacewon Effect (nine of those tracks are included here) it serves as not only a refresher course, but a good introduction to those who maybe unfamiliar with him. Though previous burners, "Oriental" and "Secret" are excluded here, dated, but still moving efforts are; "Nobody" feat. Young Zee, "It's Yours" (feat. Wyclef Jean), the bass-heavy "Sunroof Top" and the classic "I Declare War", powered by Ski's trill flute loop, is still as fuego today as it was on its born date.
Though Pace's new material does not include the head nod capabilities of past efforts, Ski and Pace recreate their chemistry over the morphed keyboard stabs of "Fresh", "Rush", and "Cowboys & Westerns" ("Ski and Kingpin we keep people stepping") where Pace puts his abundance of braggadocios rhymes on full-display.
While Pace's charismatic flair and Ski's varying production helps Won carve out a very consistent niche, at 73-minutes the LP could have benefited by trimming some of the excess fat; exemplified by flat collaborations with the Flipmode Squad's first-lady Rah Digga ("Money Hungry") and Kurupt & Young Zee ("What You Know").
Undeniably its been an uphill battle for Pace, but it's good to finally see one of the underground's slept-on talents finally get off the snide and shine on a more prominent stage then just being the source of income for bootleggers and E-Bay peddlers. Hopefully, now that Pace has finally birthed Won, he can move on to creating a "new" LP worth of material. Lets just hope that the wait for his sophomore jawn is not as prolonged.

Valerie Walker is involved in student government at her high school, but says she wanted to do more.
Walker says she has a lot of ideas and wants to put those to good use as a student member of the school board.
Administrators say Walker has the initiative and motivation to get the job done.
Valerie Walker said, "I think that I'll be able to add a lot of positive input that encompasses all the students' ideas, not just what I think or the people at Godby. I like to get everybody's opinions and just make sure it's a universal kind of thing."
Walker is also involved in creating a summer safety initiative at her high school. The program will discuss issue like drunk driving and rape.

The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

Good stuff. Healthy. I just mix it with peanut butter and honey into a hemp dough ball, very good.
I really like this product. I do not find it gritty as some reviwers have. I mix it into a smoothie, so this obviously eliminates that problem. I was buying a much more expensive brand (Living Harvest) and I find no difference between the two. Great price, organic .... Love it!

high fiber, tastes good
Posted by Reviewer3085712 on Jan 26, 2007
This is my favorite hemp protein. It tastes very good and is also high fiber. Good protein supplement for those who are allergic to dairy and soy.
Posted by Reviewer1750393 on Jul 07, 2008
Substantial...no hunger for hours.
An even better source of fiber than protein!
Posted by Reviewer3231842 on Dec 10, 2008
This product is pretty great. It is a wonderful source of fiber, protein, and omegas, and not much else, which makes it a wonder-superfood. But, it is a bit expensive, difficult to mix, and doesn't have the best flavor (it is sweet-ish, but grainy). If you are putting it in a smoothy, I'm sure it would be fine, but if you are stirring it in a glass of soymilk, for instance, you may not enjoy drinking the result.

Helen Altman's Creepy Skull Sculptures are Made from Grains, Herbs and Spices
Posted By Lori Zimmer On October 13, 2011 @ 3:40 pm In Art,Design,Innovation,Sustainable Materials | No Comments
Artist Helen Altman's skull sculptures are symbols of death made with some of life's greatest pleasures. The Texas-based artist crafts human-sized skulls from organic materials such as spices, plants and flowers. Both beautiful and haunting, the skulls are designed to be hung from the wall with metal hooks, appearing as if they were trophies or prizes.
Altman's sculptures are formed by simply by mixing organic material with glue [2], then pressing the concoction into a mould. A variety of colorful elements are transformed into various human elements, including bone [3]; dried green bamboo strips are twisted and folded into eye sockets; fennel seeds group together to resemble a skull crawling with flesh hungry bugs; and dark poppy seeds create a skull that looks as if it were that of a victim of a fire.
Altman also uses other edibles such as millet, roses, Anise star seeds, pressed mung beans and glutinous rice. Each spice and flower creates an entirely different color, effect and texture. The artist uses the skull shape [4] to evoke different feelings, such as roses to evoke the Victorian romanticism of death, bamboo to call to mind the natural fact of death, and some of the other seeds evoke decay.
Aside from a rainbow of colors, the skull sculptures [5]also create an aromatic experience. When the entire collection of skulls was displayed together in 2010 at New York's Museum of Art and Design [6], visitors were hit with the calming smell of spices when entering the gallery. Like potpourri, the aroma of the spiced skulls intermingle, adding a new sensory experience to the sculptural installation.
Altman's skulls sculptures uniquely balance the symbolism of death [7] with her use of organic materials, and offer a contrasting pleasant smell.

BRADLEY KLAPPER Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) — A top U.S. drug official says the United States is facing a "nationwide heroin crisis."
Assistant Secretary of State William Brownfield says heroin addicts and abusers have increased 75 percent in the last four years. He says the amount of pure heroin entering the U.S. has doubled.
Brownfield spoke Tuesday at a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing on U.S.-Mexican relations. He heads the department's international narcotics and law enforcement unit.
Brownfield said the U.S. has gotten better at interrupting cocaine and methamphetamine flows from Latin America. But he said heroin is a different problem.
Law enforcement authorities across the U.S. are warning the drug is making a comeback. Once mainly a city phenomenon, it has spread to rural villages and middle-class suburbs.

Without this, your car is fair game.
Benton County man Timothy Vanderpool has had more than a dozen run-ins with the law, but he might have dodged his most recent meth possession conviction if he'd had a drivers license.
In March 2007, a cop saw Vanderpool driving a Blue Ford Explorer in in the area. A license check showed the car was registered to a woman. Since the driver did not appear to be female, the cop stopped Vanderpool and asked if he was the woman's husband. Vanderpool was forthcoming about the fact that he was not related to the woman, though had the car with permission. Looking to confirm Vanderpool's identity, the cop asked for a driver's license, which he did not have.
Because it's illegal to drive without a license, Vanderpool was put under arrest and the car was searched, turning up meth. Vanderpool was charged with meth possession. He asked a Benton County Superior Court judge to suppress evidence found in the search of the car, which he says was illegal. (Getting that evidence suppressed would have pretty much ended the case.) But the judge said no dice so Vanderpool took it to the Court of Appeals.
Yesterday the court ruled that while it is illegal to search a car without cause, doing anything illegal related to driving is cause enough for a cop to dig around. Vanderpool's case was sent back for trial, and if convicted, sentencing.
So if you want to drive around with contraband in your glovebox, make sure your drivers license is up to date.

After seeing the fashion student designers' work featured at California College of the Arts (CCA) Annual Fashion Show for 4 years, I genuinely feel that CCA has the knack of showing what being a student designer is all about. Their creativity, personality, and their craftsmanship shine clearly on that runway. It's not always perfect or generally relevant or commercial, but being experimental and creative are the two things student designers need to take advantage of while they are still students, and CCA fashion students never fail to do that year after year.

7x7 had the privilege of naming CCA's Class of 2014's Emerging Designer of the Year. We want to extend a big congratulation to Erick Lopez, whose team of soccer players in oversized neoprene jerseys, jackets with exaggerated shoulders, and one man-skirt won us over. A nod to Belgian designers with perhaps a dash of Yeezy, his vision was what Levi's Chief Merchandising Officer Grant Barth said, "on the pulse of the growing trend of athletic fashion."

One of the best parts of school has to be the field trip, right? You're out of the classroom and into "the real world."
Last month, that real world was Levi Strauss & Co. for industrial and fashion design students at San Francisco's California College of the Arts (CCA).
A group of about 20 students paid us a visit to understand our work and progress in the area of sustainability—in both operations and product design.

Posted on Wednesday, March 19, 2014 by Laura Braun
There was an air of easy, breezy, SoCal comfort during the opening of the new Oliver Peoples boutique on Maiden Lane in San Francisco. The bustling event, hosted by Sabrina Buell and Yves Behar, benefitted the Wattis Institute for Contemporary Arts at California College of the Arts. Guests came out to experience the chic new 800 square-foot store, shop the eyewear – including the highly anticipated Isabel Marant par Oliver Peoples collaboration sunglasses – and meet Oliver Peoples CEO David Schulte and Founder & Creative Director Larry Leight.
Posted on Tuesday, March 18, 2014 by Laura Braun
On March 13, SoCal-based eyewear designer Oliver Peoples celebrated the opening of its Maiden Lane boutique in downtown San Francisco. In-demand Southern California architect Marmol Radziner fashioned the 800-square-foot space, showcasing his distinctive design aesthetic in every facet of the boutique. Art advisor Sabrina Buell and designer/entrepreneur Yves Béhar hosted the store opening in honor of the Wattis Institute for Contemporary Arts.
Posted on Tuesday, March 18, 2014 by Laura Braun
Oliver Peoples' Creative Director Larry Leight and the Los Angeles-based eyewear line's CEO David Schulte joined Amanda Hearst to launch the company's first boutique in San Francisco on Thursday, March 13. The gathering, hosted by Sabrina Buell and Yves Béhar and benefiting the California College of the Arts' Wattis Institute for the Contemporary Arts, marked the second occasion that the eyewear line drew Hearst to Northern California over the past few months.
Posted on Tuesday, February 4, 2014 by Laura Braun
Students at the California College of the Arts explore the full design process, using the fashion-forward San Francisco Bay Area as a muse. Students have the opportunity to pursue internships with leading fashion companies, including Levi Strauss & Company, Athleta and TEA Collection, in addition to participating in the school's Annual Fashion Show.

I could listen to this song for 4 days straight while working and I'm still not tired of it :D
Now if only there was a remix of Excellen's Theme (*hint hint*)
Amazing job as always!
...whoa. Then again, I had my own loops of my own remix back then when I made this so I can -kinda- relate XD AND HAHAHA HINT HINT? I WONDER WHAT YOU ARE TRYING TO TELL ME...maybe. Just maybe. But I'm leaning on Elzam/Ratsel. XD Thanks!

Man, that was great! Congratulations!!
I'm really looking foward to another theme of SRW OG!
Haha, thanks! And Trombe! is one of my concept, you know...and to sound redundant...you never know :)

Damn, this is pretty awesome.
I first came across this in a video of a dude I follow. I have to say, after checking out this and some other stuff of yours, you're a pretty good composer. This makes me want to play Super Robot Taisen, actually, so mission accomplished for you, I guess. Keep doing what you do, man. *thumbs-up*
Wow, I thank that dude you follow for leading you here then! Thanks for the comments, reviews and the assurance that my mission has been accomplished. But hey, you're probably not complaining--it's a great game with awesome music, some of which I will definitely remix in the future! I'll keep it up. :D

Huh...for me, that's in progress. XD Thanks and glad you like it!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I feel as if i walked into awesomeness...
This song is something i would expect to see in a Even sided match that goes into "overtime". Nice to see more music like this that gets me listening to it so much that if it was a contest of how many times you listen: I'd probably WIN.
seriously. nice job on this.
What a way to put it XD But yeah, it definitely sounds fit for scenarios like those :D Thanks for the review!

Mallahan is up with a total of 81,725 votes counted thus far in Seattle. King County elections is predicting 35 percent turnout for Seattle, which would mean an additional 51,000 votes have yet to be counted. Here's where the three front-runners stand as of 4:10 p.m.:
Mallahan takes the lead, more counting to come.
Joe Mallahan, 21101, 26.76 percent
Mike McGinn, 20880, 26.48 percent
Greg Nickels, 19864, 25.19 percent
The spread between Nickels and the rest of the candidates is growing; it's up from 970 last night to 1,237 now, with Nickels sitting 1,016 ballots shy of second place. Why that matters more than anything is how it effects Nickels' chances of getting an automatic recount of the vote.
King County Elections spokesperson Kim van Ekstrom explains that if the spread stays within 2,000 and votes and less than one-half of one percent of all votes cast, her department will automatically run a machine recount. So say 100,000 people vote in Seattle; a recount would be triggered if the separation between two candidates for the general was less than 500 votes. Ekstrom adds that If the final spread is 150 votes or fewer and less than one-fourth of one percent of all votes cast, County Elections will automatically do a hand recount.
The candidates can also request a recount if the final tally isn't that tight. If the outcome doesn't change, the candidate has to pay for it, van Ekstrom says.
In addition to the votes counted today, van Ekstrom says about 70,000 votes from around the county arrived in her offices today, most of which won't be processed even in time for the 4:30 update tomorrow. "And we know that tomorrow could be a pretty big mail drop as well," she says.

Billy McCoy and his band of merry plagiarizers came up with a head-scratcher of an explanation.
Yes, they acknowledged, we copied almost every word of an N.C. police department's strategic plan and called it our own, but that's not plagiarism. And besides, every law enforcement agency in America does this, so who cares?
Polar bears, mini-greenhouses and human burial pods were among the projects featured this week at the annual Earth Day Event at USC Lancaster, as Geology 103 students ended the semester with proposals for a brighter future.
"This is my environmental geology class," said Instructor Lynette Martek, surveying the crowded classroom. "These are the people who will save the Earth."
Organizers of the Vivian Major Robinson Concerts have another musical treat in store for the Lancaster community. Sunday's performance by Duke University's Ciompi Quartet at the Cultural Arts Center features composers covering the musical spectrum from Romantic to Modern.
The Lancaster audience will recognize familiar composers Franz Schubert, Claude Debussy, and George Gershwin, and be introduced to the lesser-known early 20th century Austrian composer Anton Webern. Webern was a pioneer in the use of the 12-tone musical technique.
A safe haven in the middle of a rough neighborhood. An escape where kids can learn and thrive in a safe, uplifting environment.
That's what Carol Lee and Kathy Harden envisioned four years ago when they began Grace Place, an after-school program on Brooklyn Avenue that provides the youth of Lancaster with free tutoring and healthy after-school snacks.
Local fundraising has crossed over into cyberspace, making it easier than ever to donate to local nonprofit agencies. The 24-hour online fundraiser GiveLocalLancaster is set for all day Tuesday, from midnight to 11:59 p.m.
The website GiveLocalLancaster.org has 36 organizations listed. Donations can be made to one or more nonprofits from Lancaster County, Fort Lawn and Great Falls. People from across the nation or anywhere in the world will be able to donate to our nonprofits.
Credibility. Honesty. Integrity. Accountability. These are all attributes that the citizens of Lancaster County not only expect but demand from their public officials.
William McCoy's remarkable "word for word" rendition of most of the Garner Police Department Strategic Plan is an absolute disgrace for a man asking the voters of Lancaster to elect him to public office.
It just keeps getting more and more interesting and perplexing. I am just not quite sure what to make of it all.
The list continues to grow of businesses across the country that have been sued or threatened with lawsuits because they refused to provide services for individuals/couples who are openly gay. Some businesses have closed because of this, at least temporarily.
In keeping with the spirit of Editor Brian Melton's call for civility and honest discourse, I will refrain from turning this letter into one on the personal and professional integrity of candidate William McCoy.
When questioned with regards to the alleged plagiarism of material obtained from another jurisdiction, it is sad that anyone associated with a campaign would even jokingly condone or justify stealing in any form, especially as it pertains to the highest elected position responsible for the maintenance of law and order in the community.
Like a thief in the night, he came and messed stuff up.
I began to notice little things, shortness of breath when bending down, but that didn't last long after taking a short break. The breaks became more frequent, and walks around the yard became fewer.
My doctor said my heart was good for a man of my age. I could have figured that one out all by myself. Getting up real quick sometimes made me a might dizzy. Shucks, that happened bunches of times.
Many, if not most, South Carolina state lawmakers have a peculiar understanding of the separation of powers. For them, the principle seems to mean that all powers should be removed from the executive and judicial branches and concentrated in the legislature.

I thought that you'd not painted the kid, the fish and the lilly pads intentionally It just looked significant...

thật phái đám cây cỏ đó màh :"3~♥ e dùng sơn dầu?
uhm,dùng thử thôi chị ^_^
The fact that it is incomplete gives it a really nice feeling I think it is beautiful the way it is now.
HAHA why don't you use water colour AND oil! I have. AND it turned out pretty weird.... BUT THATS NOT THE POINT
haunting! and gorgeous!
Oils are hard if you are used to watercolor. It requires a completely different approach. I am so used to oils that watercolors drive me nuts! Lol. You'll get there.
huh it doesn't look like you failed it...just imcomplete thats all~
ss ơi ss ko có fail đâu ;A; em đã rất xúc động khi thấy pic này đó, tuy nó là unfinish dưng mà thực sự là em đã rất xúc động đó ;A;
*ôm tim gục ngã*
*ôm tim gục ngã*
còn lên đc mà, trông ổn đó, tiếp đi, cái chính là "ẺM"...*rú lên* lên màu tiếp đi mờ!
some pieces almost look as though they were meant to be unfinished as a final result.. I think this is quite nice.
looking forward to the final piece! and yes going from watercolors to oil is def not easy
I like it how it is
its mess indeed/ but i think you still can repair it. anyway you got the whole composition interesting.
That's very pretty, I like it and don't think it's a failure ^^
Tat would be nice to finish it one day
Tat would be nice to finish it one day

I think it's perfect the way it is.
Aw the kid here looks so lonely
Ahh it looks very nice so far! Even if it's incomplete, I can sorta see what the finished product may look like. I'm looking forward to when you do finish this. Lovely technique on coloring the leaves.
So pretty - almost delicate. It sort of reminds me of a spirit world existing with our own.
I dunno, I really like the way it looks now. I'm a sucker for half-colored work.
I like how soft the nose and the fingers look o3o
i rather like it this way. =]
And at first i thought the leaves were a photo.
And at first i thought the leaves were a photo.

Nhìn vẫn rất có hồn..

If this is failing, I must have died years ago or something.

Additional Information
Important InformationAbout Asociación Arariwa
Asociación Arariwa is a large non-governmental organization that started offering microcredit in 1994 to improve the quality of life, skills and equity of the population in the rural Cusco region of Peru. Arariwa serves the southern Andean provinces of Peru, and is distinguished by its efforts to reach the very poor, who often live in isolated rural areas. Arariwa fosters village banking, supports savings accounts, promotes access to education, and empowers women entrepreneurs (who make up 78% of its borrowers).
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

A 'garbage disposal' drug may slow Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases
December 23, 2015
Rolipram, a drug that boosts activity in the brain's "garbage disposal" system, can decrease levels of toxic proteins associated with Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative disorders and improve cognition in mice, a new study by neuroscientists has found.
Rolipram causes nausea, but similar drugs do not, and could be tested in clinical trials quickly, the researchers say.

Thanks for the heads up. I will give this app a try.
I notice that it was updated two days ago and that there are no reviews of the current edition. I promise to remedy that before christmas for you.
I also notice that the app requires the most up-to-date version of the ipod and iphone os so it will not work on each and every phone.
my main ipod uses an older os because it is jailbroken and there are some privacy issues associated with the newest iphone os. however i do have one ipod that work with this.
I have a definite need to try so cbt right now because there are some anger issues in my life that need to be addressed- seroquel has been recommended to me for my problem but i am already overweight so i need alternatives to atypicals.
as an aside. my identity at psych central has been locked for more than 7 days and i have not received a webmaster response please help. I would not post this publicly but i am not able to use internal mail with my newer identity yet. if my blockage is connected to my anger issues and you do not wish to discuss it at all i also understand and do not wish to put you on the spot. no response is necessary immediately.

(UPDATED)

#ucoms #ibmexperience

So Caleb Barlow, our esteemed Director of Unified Communications and Collaboration, is going to be one busy guy this coming Wednesday.

10am ET: Caleb starts his day off at the New York Stock Exchange to help out with IBM Business Partner Plantronics' announcement event,

12pm ET: I then have to whisk him (and Jeff Schick, who's speaking at the Plantronics event) uptown to the new IBM Client Center at 590 Madison Avenue, where Caleb and Jeff will be speakers in an important IBM social business and unified communications announcement, "Engage your broader business network with IBM".

2pm ET: And if that wasn't enough, right after that Caleb will be recording a live webcast. Brought to you by InformationWeek, The BrainYard, and IBM, join us for a 60 minute webcast, "Honing Your Social Antenna: Improve Effectiveness and Reduce Costs by Becoming a More Social Business", Wednesday, May 18, 2011, at 2pm ET.

Across industries, the challenges for managers and leaders today are clear: how can I employ social collaboration in a way that creates business value and not chaos? How can my people make the right connections easily, so they don't waste time and money looking for the person or insight they need to do their jobs? How do I evolve my organization in a controlled way, avoiding pitfalls and mistakes in today's rapidly changing landscape? Join Caleb for a discussion on how savvy businesses are honing their social "antenna" in order to better see, hear, and sense changing market conditions. Free registration is here.

I think after this week, I'm going to give Caleb a break from any new speaking engagements, at least for a few days.

***Update***

As you saw from our posts this week, we've been busy at Enterprise Connect. All in all a good show, attendance was up, and we had some solid traffic and conversations in the booth and in the panels we participated in. We'll hopefully have a summary for you tomorrow or early next week.

In the meantime, the press continues to highlight IBM unified communications. The latest two articles cover the growing importance of both social business and video collaboration, two areas where Sametime and IBM participate strongly. eWeek published an article on Socialtext's integration with IBM Lotus Sametime allowing customers to conduct real-time, one-to-one chats with their business contacts:

Socialtext 4.6 now integrates with IBM Lotus Sametime and Microsoft Office Communicator instant messaging products to allow customers to conduct real-time, one-to-one chats with their business contacts. Sametime and Communicator join AIM Yahoo and Skype as instant messaging tools Socialtext supports.

InformationWeek discusses IBM Business Partner Vidyo offering videoconferencing capabilities for Lotus Sametime comparable to Cisco Telepresence.

IBM has announced a Vidyo plug-in for Lotus SameTime that it claims offers videoconferencing capabilities comparable to Cisco Telepresence. Vidyo calls it "personal telepresence," and it may soon be available on your desktop, if you're a user of IBM's Lotus SameTime. "Just as SameTime users can go into a voice communication from an IM chat session they'll be able to do HD-quality multi-point videoconferencing," said Vidyo director of product marketing Mark Noble.

US: PVH Corp lifts FY outlook as Q3 profit jumps 12.4%
By Leonie Barrie | 2 December 2011
- Q3 profit rose 12.4% to $112.2m
- Revenue climbed 9% to $1.65bn
- Lifts FY forecast for earnings of $5.23 to $5.25 per share
Apparel seller PVH Corp has raised its full-year forecasts again, after strong sales of its Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein brands helped lift third-quarter earnings by 12.4%.
"The Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein businesses represent approximately three quarters of our overall revenues and their strong global performance has more than offset some of the challenges we have been facing with certain of our more moderate heritage businesses," noted chairman and CEO Emanuel Chirico.
The company said net income in the three months to 30 October rose to $112.2m or $1.54 per share, from $99.8m or $1.39 per share in the same period last year. Excluding one-time costs, including the buyout of the Tommy Hilfiger license in India, earnings rose to $1.89 per share.
Revenue climbed 9% to $1.65bn, helped by gains of $118.2m in the Tommy Hilfiger business and an increase of $28.7m at Calvin Klein. This was partially offset by a decline of $9.2m in the Heritage Brands.
Total revenue for Calvin Klein exceeded the company's guidance, rising 11% over last year to $301.2m - including growth of 12% in retail same-store sales and "equally strong" performance at wholesale. Royalty revenue also rose 8%.
Gains were seen across most product categories and regions, PVH said, with underwear, outerwear and women's sportswear singled out along with "outstanding growth" in South America and Asia. This was offset, in part, by weakness in the domestic jeanswear business.
Earnings before interest and taxes for the Calvin Klein business rose 13% to $85.7m in the quarter, up from $75.6m a year ago. Within the Calvin Klein apparel business, gross margin rates were down slightly, as higher product costs were partially mitigated by increases in selling prices.
The Tommy Hilfiger business, meanwhile, booked a 17% rise in revenue, helped by double digit growth in the European wholesale division, and 15% same-store sales growth in North America and 5% in Europe. Earnings before interest and taxes were up 46% to $90.5m.
In the Heritage Brands business, total revenue fell 2% to $526.3m, with a 4% rise in dress furnishings more than offset by a 7% drop in the sportswear division, largely due to underperformance at Izod and the soon-to-be discontinued Timberland division. Same-store sales were flat during the quarter.
Looking ahead the company, formerly known as Phillips-Van Heusen Corp, lifted its full-year forecast for earnings of $5.23 to $5.25 per share - up from the high end of earlier guidance of $5.12 per share share. It also sees full-year revenues rising 26% on 2010 to between $5.825bn and $5.845bn.
"Given the current momentum of our business, including a strong Thanksgiving weekend, and despite the uncertain global economic and market conditions, we believe we are well-positioned for another solid holiday season," Chirico added.

Michele Bachmann went to Arizona this week for Sheriff Joe Arpaio's endorsement. She didn't get it, and likely won't.
But Bachmann did confess that America's self-proclaimed "toughest sheriff" gave her a pair of the pink boxers he forces inmates in his jail to wear.
She also elaborated on what immigration policy would look like in a Bachmann administration.
Bachmann's been outspoken about immigration in the past, saying that America "needs to go back to the 1950s" when immigrants had to "promise to learn English." Immigration policy in the 1950s is known for, among other things, restrictive quotas and Operation Wetback, a mass deportation of Mexicans orchestrated by President Eisenhower in 1954. What Bachmann told a local interviewer sounds remarkably like Wetback for the modern day.
Bachmann referenced 1950s-era immigration policy in last week's Republican debate, the one where everyone ignored her. She elaborated in an interview with Fox News Radio's Mike Broomhead.
Bachmann was ignored at the debate, and yet she said something dumb.
First, Bachmann said we must build a fence on the border -- anyone who crosses over it "we arrest." She said "enforce the law" in some form or other at least half a dozen times in about thirty seconds.
Bachmann also took shots at the Obama Administration, claiming that she'd "tell the border agents we have your back" if she were president, which she followed with a bizarre caveat: "If you as a border agent aren't breaking the law yourself, I will have your back."
The claim about Obama not supporting a tight border is bunk: Obama has deported more immigrants than anyone in recent history and Immigration Customs Enforcement agents have the administration's full support, which we wrote about a couple weeks ago.
What made Bachmann's points about "immigration policy" stand out, however, was her suggestion that she wouldn't be a passive president stopping people at the border. She'd hunt them down all across America.
"We need to do the same with ICE agents in the interior. This isn't just an Arizona-specific problem," Bachmann said. "This is a national problem dealing with people who are breaking the law."
That's what begins to sound like Operation Wetback, the 1954 operation beginning in California and Arizona involving over 1,000 Border Patrol agents who went door-to-door in Mexican-American neighborhoods checking citizenship. It's estimated that half a million Mexicans fled the country for fear of la migra.
Many thousands of immigrants were forcibly detained and bused back to Mexico, where government agents dropped them off hundreds of miles beyond the border in hopes of preventing them from returning to America.
What else is there to know about immigration policy in the 1950's? Consider an editorial that ran in yesterday's Washington Post:
Ms. Bachmann's nostalgia is touching but misplaced, unless she really pines for a return to laws that explicitly favored white immigrants from a handful of Northern European countries while excluding or disadvantaging Jews, Asians, Africans and practically everyone else.
The Post tried to ask Bachmann if that's really the 1950's immigration policy that she longed for. Her campaign didn't answer.

When in the world will the republicans quit eating their own? Time and again we've seen example after example of this over the years…I don't know about all of you, but this gal has had her fill of this. When will they ever learn…or is that now a complete impossibility? Seems to me too many republicans are afraid of their own shadows when it comes to political correctness and the media…in the the long run they are defeating themselves by doing what they do time and again. You can be sure the democrats are pleased as punch about this, their mission has been accomplished!
I'm going to post two examples of what I'm talking about, both have happened recently. – See what you think.
First up we have this via Mediaite:
An official in the Virginia Republican Party, Bob FitzSimmonds, is garnering some attention for remarks he posted on Facebook. When President Barack Obama "goes to Hell," he wrote, he'll still be placing the blame on his predecessor, President George W. Bush.
FitzSimmonds' post, published on Wednesday, read: "When Obama is 90 years old and he dies and goes to Hell, he is going to say 'This is all Bush's fault.'"
He currently serves as chief deputy clerk for Prince William Circuit Court and treasurer of the Virginia Republican Party's State Central Committee — and is also a close ally of the state's attorney general, and gubernatorial candidate, Ken Cuccinelli.
On Thursday, FitzSimmonds gave a comment to the Hampton Roads Pilot. In an email, he said, "My Facebook post was not about Obama going to Hell. It was about his obsession with blame shifting and I don't really see anything inappropriate about it."
Meanwhile, Cuccinelli distanced himself from the remark, via spokesman Noah Wall, who said, "Mr. FitzSimmonds does not speak for our campaign, and we don't agree with his assessment."
Virginia Democratic Party chairman Brian Moran also released a statement. The state GOP needs to condemn the remarks, he said, and FitzSimmonds needs to apologize:
"Taking to Facebook to muse on the death of the President of the United States and whether or not he will go to hell is well below the standard of conduct Virginians set for their public officials and political leaders.
"Mr. Fitzsimmonds should apologize and his close allies like Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli and Republican Party of Virginia Chairman Pat Mullins should condemn his inflammatory remarks immediately," he added. "As leaders in Washington put the elections behind them and try to solve the enormous challenges we face as a country, this type of rhetoric raises serious questions about whether certain factions of the Republican party are capable of putting Virginia families ahead of ugly partisan rancor."
What did this guy say that's so terrible…my gosh, we've gone past the point of political correctness, I call the call for an apology and such as 'Stuck on Stupid!' How 'bout you?
Next up we have this…please tell me what part of what Romney said was wrong? – You can read this in full here.
New Jersey Governor Chris Christie on Friday distanced himself from former presidential candidate Mitt Romney's "gifts" remarks, making him the latest in a growing list of Republican leaders to do so.
"You can't expect to be a leader of all the people and be divisive," said Gov. Christie when asked by the hosts of MSNBC's "Morning Joe" whether he agreed with Gov. Bobby Jindal (R-La.), who was the first to push back against Romney's comments.
"You have to talk about themes, policies that unite people. And play to their aspirations and their goals and their hopes for their family and their neighbors. And I always think this is scapegoating after elections. When you lose, you lost," said the New Jersey governor.
Visit NBCNews.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
Now here's what Romney had to say…this is what all the brouhaha is about when it comes to some republicans that have distanced themselves from the comments, for the life of me I don't understand why that is…seems to me Romney hit the nail on the head! Cradle to Grave comes to mind!
Romney during a conference call with top donors accused young voters, women, and minorities of voting for Barack Obama because he offered them "gifts."
"It's a proven political strategy, which is give a bunch of money to a group and, guess what, they'll vote for you," said Romney.
"What I would do if I were a Democrat running four years from now — I'd say dental care ought to be included in Obamacare," Romney told donors," he added.
What the president did is he gave them two things. One, he gave them a big gift on immigration with the DREAM Act amnesty program, which was obviously very, very popular with Hispanic voters, and then number two was Obamacare … For a home earning — let's say $30,000 a year — free health care, which is worth about $10,000 a year, I mean it's massive, it's huge. So this — he did two very popular things for the Hispanic community.
When asked about these comment, Gov. Bobby Jindal said that they were absolutely wrong" and that "we have got to stop dividing American voters."
Leftists keep fighting for their agenda…yet the GOP hides from it's own shadow and constantly cave!
So friends…what do you think about all of this, will the republican party ever learn, or will things remain the same with what has become a marching band of the clueless…known as the GOP?

Kudos, vets; they really fought for us
Political candidates say they fight for the people, but the fighting and service performed by military veterans is what has preserved, protected and defended our country. Thank you, veterans.
Election Day, Nov. 6, and Veterans Day, Nov. 11, are closely juxtaposed this year.
In campaign ads, candidates on the Election Day ballot often declare they are "fighters" and are willing to "fight for you."
Military veterans must shake their heads at such talk.
Those dedicated men and women know all too well what fighting for the people means. They've done it. Their service to the nation preserves our freedom and protects our democracy, with all its flaws.
While candidates are quick to tout their records, you don't often see that with military veterans. It's left to family members and friends to point with pride to the service records of loved ones.
You'll see examples of that in Sauk Valley Media's Salute to Veterans special section, which will be part of Saturday's SV Weekend edition.
The 48-page section has articles about the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard.
Also included are photos of nearly 500 military veterans from the Sauk Valley. Family members provided them so that the public can know of each veteran's service and sacrifice for freedom.
The photos run the gamut from A to Z. In this case, "A" stands for Spec. Greg Adams, 1st Aviation Brigade, who served 2 years in Vietnam. "Z" stands for Richard W. Zopf, who served 4 years in the Army during World War II.
We encourage readers to seek out the Salute to Veterans section Saturday and give it a thoughtful read.
Consider, also, attending a Veterans Day observance. Some area programs are Saturday, some are on Veterans Day itself (Sunday), while others will be Monday. Consult SVM's Salute to Veterans for dates, times and locations.
It has been said that people who value their freedom should thank a veteran. We agree.
To all area military veterans, we offer our profound thanks.
