I've gone through the code of your theme as it is in the WP repository, and it looks like you have the option of adding custom styles, including the menu items and current menu item's styles. I haven't installed the theme, therefore I don't know what this looks like in practice, but it shouldn't be hard to find in the admin panel.
I can't say how to achieve this via CSS because I don't have a link to your site, therefore I've got no way of pinpointing the right selectors to achieve the desired results.
I found a solution:
1. Add the following to functions.php (child theme)
add_filter('nav_menu_css_class' , 'special_nav_class' , 10 , 2);
function special_nav_class($classes, $item){
if( in_array('current-menu-item', $classes) ){
$classes[] = 'active ';
return $classes;
2. Now you have the 'active' class that you can manipulate via CSS.

I have several videos that were encoded with XVID MPEG-4 video codec that I cannot get to play correctly on my Windows 7 laptop. Have no problems playing videos with other codecs.
I have tried downloading the latest version of the codec from XVID and installing it, but that didn't seem to help.
One thing that looks odd to me is that when I go into Media Player and do a Help/About the Xvid codec shows up without a binary file listed. Is this normal?
Would appreciate any advice or assistance.

San Francisco, California
|San Francisco State University (B.S.)
|Alma mater

|Angel investor, business executive
|Years active
|Ripple Labs (CEO)
Chris Larsen is an American business executive and angel investor best known for co-founding several Silicon Valley technology startups, including one based on peer to peer lending. In 1996 he co-founded the online mortgage lender E-Loan,[2] and during his tenure as CEO E-Loan became the first company to freely provide consumers' FICO credit scores.[3] By 2000 E-Loan's market value was estimated at $1 billion,[4] and Larsen left the company when it was sold to Banco Popular[5] in 2005.[6] In 2006 he co-founded Prosper Marketplace, the first peer-to-peer lending marketplace in the United States,[7] and he served as CEO until 2012.[8] Later in 2012 he co-founded the company Ripple Labs, Inc., which developed Ripple,[9] software that enables the instant and direct transfer of money between two parties.[10] As of 2015 Larsen continues to serve as CEO.[11]
Self-described as "radically pro-consumer," Larsen has been a vocal advocate of financial privacy in California,[12] and in 2001 he co-founded the coalition Californians for Privacy Now.[12] He has appeared as a speaker at industry events[13][14] such as Sibos, SWIFT's flagship conference, and written articles for publications such as American Banker.[15] He is also a board-member or advisor for organizations such as Credit Karma, the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC), Qifang, and Betable.[16]

Early life and education[edit]
Chris Larsen was born in San Francisco, California in 1960.[12] His mother worked as a freelance illustrator, while his father worked as an aircraft mechanic for United Airlines at San Francisco International Airport.[12] After high school Larsen began attending San Francisco State University, where he earned a B.S.[16] in international business and accounting in 1984.[12] He began working for Chevron after college, doing financial audits in Brazil, Ecuador, and Indonesia.[12] He graduated with an M.B.A.[16] from the Stanford Graduate School of Business in 1991.[10]
Business career[edit]
Development of E-Loan (1992-1998)[edit]
In the early 1990s Larsen began working at a mortgage lender in Palo Alto, California. Becoming friends with his colleague Janina Pawlowski, they quit their jobs together in 1992[2] to found their own mortgage business,[4] By 1996 they had switched their focus from loans to the development of a mortgage lending website.[2] Both Larsen[3] and Pawlowski had been personally frustrated with aspects of the mortgage lending industry, and saw the internet as a way to circumnavigate agent commissions and other fees.[2] Initially raising $450,000 in funding from friends and family, Larsen and Pawlowski moved from their small Palo Alto office to a larger "low-rent site" in nearby Dublin to work on the project.[2]
The E-Loan website became accessible to the public in 1997, running ad campaigns targeted at millennials[2] and meeting with success[2][4] as one of the first online mortgage lenders in the United States. The website allows borrowers to search and shop for loans directly, without the fees charged by brokers and sales agents.[10] The website would later begin offering direct home equity and car loans as well.[4] However, by 1998 E-Loan was running into difficulty funding their operations.[4] Pawlowski had served as chief executive officer for the initial two years, and in 1998 she offered to switch jobs with Larsen, taking Larsen's previous role of President.[17]
E-Loan funding and public offering (1998-2000)[edit]
Pawlowski and Larsen were in talks with Intuit over a $130 million buyout in the fall of 1998. Forbes wrote that "Pawlowski and Larsen, who together held a 40% stake and had placed 20% more in an employee stock plan, would each walk away with $10 million in cash and $16 million in Intuit stock." Days before the deal closed in August, however, Yahoo CEO Timothy Koogle pitched a deal to buy a 23% stake of E-Loan's outstanding shares for $25 million. Both Larsen's and Pawlowski's payouts would be less, but they would retain control of the company and the E-Loan brand would survive.[2] Choosing to work with Yahoo,[4] E-Loan also raised venture capital from Softbank[17] and Sequoia Capital.[18] In 1998 E-Loan had total annual revenues of $6.8 million,[17] and the following year Larsen offered the role of CEO back to Pawlowski, though she elected to remain President.[4][17]
In late March 1999 E-Loan filed for an initial public offering,[2] and it went public in June 1999.[4] The company processed $470 million of mortgage loans in the first quarter of 1999,[17] and by the second financial quarter, revenues for the year had reached $4.6 million.[17] E-Loan lost $13 million in the third quarter of 1999,[4] though revenues overall had grown from the year before by 200%.[4] As of October 1999 the company employed around 350 people.[4] That year overall E-Loan processed 5000 loans, which at 25% of the online mortgage loan market was the highest percent of any online company.[2][17] By February 2000 E-Loan's market value was estimated at around $1 billion,[4] with Larsen serving as both CEO and Chairman.[16] During his tenure E-Loan became the first company to freely provide consumers' FICO credit scores.[3]
Privacy activism and E-Loan sale (2001-2005)[edit]
Larsen has described himself as "radically pro-consumer," and in the early 2000s he became a vocal advocate of financial privacy in California.[12] In 2001, a bill sponsored by Assemblywoman Jackie Speier proposed[12] a requirement for consumers to opt in before financial services companies could share or sell personal information such as bank balances, phone numbers, and social security numbers. While the bill had public support,[19] it was initially defeated by pro-business legislators. In response, Larsen co-founded the coalition Californians for Privacy Now, helping fund the project with $1 million of his own money.[12] Larsen spearheaded the collection of 600,000 signatures in support of Speier's bill, which was almost double the required amount to issue a ballot to state voters.[12] The signatures, combined with a lobbying campaign by Consumer Watchdog throughout 2002,[12] led to major financial firms and legislators withdrawing their opposition, and the bill passed in August 2003.[12][19] Speier acknowledged Larsen's influence on the ruling, stating "without Chris Larsen, California's financial privacy law, which sets the standard for the rest of the nation, would never have become a reality."[12]
As of May 2004, E-Loan had sold over $18.9 billion in consumer loans since its inception, and the company had remained profitable for eight quarters in a row.[12] Larsen stepped down as CEO in early 2005 to start Prosper Marketplace and remained Chairman until E-Loan was sold to Banco Popular[5] in 2005.[6]
Prosper Marketplace (2005-2011)[edit]
In 2005 Larsen and John Witchel co-founded Prosper Marketplace, a San Francisco-based company that was the first peer-to-peer lending marketplace in the United States.[7] Larsen served as CEO.[8] The website Prosper.com opened to the public on February 5, 2006.[7] From 2006 to 2009 Prosper operated a variable rate model, acting as an eBay-style online auction marketplace with lenders and borrowers ultimately determining loan rates using a Dutch auction-like system.[20] Through the website,[6] borrowers can request personal loans, while Prosper handles the servicing of the loan and distributes borrower payments and interest back to the loan investors.[7] Prosper also makes borrowers' "credit grades" public,[6] and verifies identities and select personal data.[7] Larsen himself had funded 450 loans through the website as of 2008, with borrowers as diverse as homeowners, college students, credit-card users, and entrepreneurs.[6] By 2008 Prosper had facilitated the funding of over $120 million in loans, with an average loan amount of $7,000.[6] In 2008 Fast Company named Prosper to its Fast 50 List of the "most innovative companies of the year."[6]
|Jim Breyer, a partner at Accel Investments, interviews Chris Larsen about Prosper at an industry panel (October 25, 2006)
The company soon ran into regulatory opposition from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC),[5] as current loan regulations were focused on traditional banks, not technology startups.[14] In 2008 Prosper filed its first prospectus with the SEC, changing its business model to use pre-set rates based on a formula evaluating each prospective borrower's credit risk.[21][22] In 2011 Larsen was outwardly supportive of the Occupy Wall Street movement, raising money to help feed protestors at the nearby OWS encampment in San Francisco.[14] By the end of the year Prosper had facilitated $271 million in peer-to-peer loans, and the company had received a total of $74.5 million in funding from investors such as Jim Breyer, Tim Draper, Omidyar Network, Nigel Morris, and Court Coursey.[14] On March 15, 2012 Larsen announced that he would be resigning from his role as CEO, though he remained Chairman of the company.[8]
Founding OpenCoin (2012-2013)[edit]
In September 2012, Chris Larsen co-founded the company OpenCoin, which began developing a new payment protocol called Ripple, based on a concept developed by Ryan Fugger.[9] The Ripple protocol enables the instant and direct transfer of money between two parties.[10] As such the protocol can circumnavigate the fees and wait times of the traditional correspondent banking system,[3][10] and any type of currency can be exchanged including gold, airline miles, and rupees.[23]
To maintain security OpenCoin programmed Ripple to rely on a common ledger that is "managed by a network of independent validating servers that constantly compare their transaction records." Servers can belong to anyone including banks or market makers.[10] The company also created its own form of digital currency dubbed XRP in a manner similar to Bitcoin, using the currency to allow financial insititutions to transfer money with negligible fees and wait-time.[5] On 14 May 2013, OpenCoin announced that it had closed a second round of angel funding,[24] and among their earliest investors were Andreessen Horowitz, Google Ventures, and IDG Capital Partners.[10]
Ripple Labs (2013-2015)[edit]
|Chris Larsen interviewed about Ripple by Deirdre Bolton on Bloomberg Television's Money Moves (2014)
|"...we think that the bigger opportunity is not just to create another digital currency – there are plenty of those - but rather to use that technology as a way of building a settlement system with no central operator."
|— Chris Larsen in December 2014[23]
On September 26, 2013, OpenCoin officially changed its name to Ripple Labs, Inc.,[25] with Larsen remaining CEO.[11] Ripple Labs then announced that the source code for the peer-to-peer node behind the Ripple payment network was officially open source.[26] Ripple Labs continued as the primary contributors of code to the consensus verification system behind Ripple, which can "integrate with banks' existing networks."[11] A couple of small US banks have since worked with Larsen and the company to "[offer] an alternative remittance option" to consumers,[27] with Ripple allowing for easy cross-border payments for retail customers, corporations, and other banks. In December 2014, Larsen was quoted stating that "most banks today have to pay corresponding bank fees and accept the exchange rates they are given when dealing with global transactions. This can be a big cost to a bank and a burden. Ripple simplifies the process by creating point-to-point and transparent transfers in which banks do not have to pay corresponding bank fees."[23] On February 9, 2014, Ripple Labs was named as a finalist for a 2014 PYMNTS Innovator Award in two separate categories: Best New Technology as well as Most Disruptive Company.[28] As of 2014[update] Ripple was the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization,[29] after Bitcoin.[30] Also that month, Ripple Labs was named one of the 50 Smartest Companies by MIT Technology Review.[31] Ripple Labs was then ranked No. 4 on a list by Fast Company of the World's Top 10 Most Innovative Companies Of 2015 In Money.[32]
Media presence and memberships[edit]
Larsen has appeared as a speaker or panelist at number of industry events,[13][14][33] for example speaking at the IIF Annual Memberships Meeting in 2014. Larsen has also written articles on banking systems and other technical topics for publications such as American Banker.[15]
In the early 2000s Larsen established the Chris Larsen Scholarship Fund at San Francisco State University, and the school named him Alum of the Year in 2004.[12] As of 2014 he is a member of the Young Presidents Organization (YPO) and he serves as a board-member or adviser for organizations such as Credit Karma and the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC). Her served as an advisor to the Silicon Valley Community Foundation's policy committee against payday lending.[16] He is also on the board of Oportun.[3][13]
Personal life[edit]
Larsen and his wife Lyna Lam have lived in the Bay Area of California since the early 2000s. As of 2004 his wife owned Café Panini in Berkeley, and they have been supportive of the Cambodian Buddhist community of San Jose.[12] As of 2015, Larsen and his family were still based in San Francisco[1]

I have the following blue defect in video (only in fullscreen) and games.
I have tried:
- Reinstalling the driver
- Taking the GFX card physically out and back in
- Changing resolutions
The video card is a Radeon 9600 so its nearly 10 years old.
Apart from in games and full screen video the card works fine.
Ill also note that it doesn't matter which encoding the video is in, there is a problem for all formats.
Any other ideas?

As there are, then, generally two laws presented to us, the one being the law of nature, of which God would be the legislator, and the other being the written law of cities, it is a proper thing, when the written law is not opposed to that of God, for the citizens not to abandon it under pretext of foreign customs; but when the law of nature, that is, the law of God, commands what is opposed to the written law, observe whether reason will not tell us to bid a long farewell to the written code, and to the desire of its legislators, and to give ourselves up to the legislator God, and to choose a life agreeable to His word, although in doing so it may be necessary to encounter dangers, and countless labours, and even death and dishonour. For when there are some laws in harmony with the will of God, which are opposed to others which are in force in cities, and when it is impracticable to please God (and those who administer laws of the kind referred to), it would be absurd to contemn those acts by means of which we may please the Creator of all things, and to select those by which we shall become displeasing to God, though we may satisfy unholy laws, and those who love them.

Natural law vs. man's law
This early Christian idea, so important to them as a reasonable justification for their failure to observe the laws of pagan nations which required worship of and sacrifice to pagan deities, later became the foundation for the philosophy of "non-violent resistant" made famous during the Indian independence movement led by Mahatma Gandhi and the American Civil Rights movement led by Martin Luther King.

So I wanted to make a own custom mapper earlier but I got the advice that it is difficult(because I got refrences etc, and I agree with that ^^) and that I ll have more luck with automapper since it is easy etc. So I started creating mapping for the classes I want to convert (I want to make this application to update a SQLserver database from a SQLite file on a weekly base, the table names and properties are the same, only the capitals are not the same, but automapper is case insensitive so great)
Here is the Code I tried:
Mapper.CreateMap<person, Person>();
Mapper.CreateMap<personAbility, PersonAbility>();
Then I get the error that person doesn t know how to convert the personabilities propertie. So I googled and found out that I need to include it:
Mapper.CreateMap<person, Person>()
.Include<personAbility, PersonAbility>()
Mapper.CreateMap<personAbility, PersonAbility>();
However here it complains that it is not personability it needs but a list(EntityCollection). So I tried:
Mapper.CreateMap<person, Person>()
.Include<EntityCollection<personAbility>, EntityCollection<PersonAbility>>()
Mapper.CreateMap<personAbility, PersonAbility>();
However it gives an error that it doesn t know the type, and I googled some more finding: https://github.com/AutoMapper/AutoMapper/wiki/Lists-and-arrays On the support list there isn t a EntityCollection. Meaning I ran into an other wall(dead end)??? Anyone knows a solution for this, if you got an other solution/way to map my database, any help will be appreciated.

This paper proposes a new style of manipulation by a humanoid robot. Focusing on the task of pushing an object, the foot placement is planned in real time according to the result of manipulation of the object. By using the impedance control of the arms, the humanoid robot can stably push the object regardless of the mass of the object. If the object is heavy, the humanoid robot pushes it by walking slowly and vice versa. Also, for planning the gait in real time, we propose a new analytical method where a newly calculated trajectory of the robot motion is smoothly connected to the current one. The effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed by simulation and experiment

Cat detained on illegal mission at Russian prison
Published: Tuesday, June 4, 2013 at 7:19 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, June 4, 2013 at 7:19 a.m.
MOSCOW (AP) — Inmates at Russia's prisons have been known to bribe guards to obtain cellphones. But using cats as couriers?
Guards patrolling a prison colony in Russia's north saw a feline on the fence and it seemed to be carrying something. On a closer look, they found a few cellphones and chargers taped to the cat's belly.
The federal prison service said Monday that this happened on Friday at Penal Colony No. 1 near the city of Syktyvkar in the Komi province, 1,000 kilometers (some 600 miles) northeast of Moscow.
It wasn't clear how the cat was supposed to drop off its loot.

Report: Obama Didn't Even Finish His Jiro Dreams of Sushi Meal
Jealous foodies demand to know the truth.
On Wednesday, we learned about yet another presidential perk: Dining at Sukiyabashi Jiro with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzō Abe. Upon leaving the Michelin-starred restaurant featured in Jiro Dream of Sushi, Abe said Obama proclaimed it the "best sushi I've ever had in my life." So why didn't he finish it?! According to AFP, the owner of a nearby restaurant claims the president put his chopsticks down at the halfway point in the meal. When questioned, chief government spokesman Yoshihide Suga would only say Obama "ate a good amount" and, "I can tell from his expression he was very much satisfied." That's not good enough for jealous foodies. Sushi truthers will not rest until they know exactly how many pieces of sushi wound up in the president's belly.

I am looking for a unix command-line program for renaming file (or files) visually, in an editor or inline (in the same manner as you rename a file on your desktop).
Example. I often need to rename a file somewhere deep. Imagine a file with a wrong
.js.txt extension (
_ is a cursor):
$ mv deep/inside/there/is/a/file.js.txt _
It is confusing to repeat the whole path as second argument to
$ mv deep/inside/there/is/a/file.js.txt deep/inside/there/is/a/file.js
(I know I can use the mouse, but it is still error-prone). I'd better press
Home and change
mv to a visual renamer (imagine it's called
vmv). E.g.:
$ vmv somewhere/deep/inside/there/is/a/file.js.txt
EDIT FILE NAME: somewhere/deep/inside/there/is/a/file.js.txt_

Cons....I just didn't feel like it helped as much with the immediate stop behaviors. Like it is too much thought and effort for that when in the moment. I prefer 1, 2, 3 Magic for that stuff.
I use both simultaneously though and really think they work well together.

I don't like their time-out routine- my children don't get a choice when to come out of time out or a choice of whether their door is open or not. Also they say not to ask your child about why they were in time-out, but I think that's essential. Like PP said its definitely a process and not very immediate. EXCEPT my 3yo stopped throwing huge tantrums almost immediately.

I think like any parenting books it has it's good and bad. I don't think it's realistic all the time. I agree w/ Jen, not great for immidiate consequences. I will have to look into that other book she recommended. But it has some good ideas. My biggest problem with the book is it was really hard for me to get through because it's pretty repetitive, like most self-helf books, and basically just restates the same things over and over. Never taken a class though.

Latin America Best Region for Private Equity in Survey
Institutional investors expect Latin America excluding Brazil to be the most attractive region for private-equity deals over the next year, according to a survey by the Emerging Markets Private Equity Association.
The region climbed from fourth place a year ago, while Brazil, the top market in the 2011 survey, fell to second. China and emerging Asia were third and fourth. Empea surveyed 106 institutional investors between December 2011 and February 2012.
"There has been a significant amount of capital going into Brazil over the last 24 months and less going into other markets in Latin America," said Sarah Alexander, chief executive officer of Empea. "This implies this area is almost virgin territory for deal-making," she added.
The survey found that 54 percent of investors plan to expand or begin investment in Latin America, excluding Brazil. Southeast Asia came close behind with 53 percent planning to expand or begin investments in the region.
In contrast, Central and Eastern Europe was ranked by institutional investors as the least attractive region for private equity deals. The region may see some impact from the sovereign-debt crisis, said Alexander.
The survey found that global market volatility had little to no impact on investors' plans to increase their commitments to emerging markets. Three-quarters expect their commitments to emerging markets to increase over the next two years.

As a musician or teacher, there's no better way to enhance your music learning experience than with music books. From performance and pro audio instructions to theory and history books to tablatures, the selection here covers everything from all areas of music education. Having an idea of what you're after though is pretty much a necessity as the catalog of items and learning materials found here is absolutely massive.
To start, narrow things down by learning category. From there you can continue to focus your search by instrument, skill level, genre, band or a variety of other factors. For example, if you're a guitarist, you could go with the best-selling Hal Leonard Guitar Method Complete Edition in order to learn a variety of playing techniques, or instead maybe the Alfred Led Zeppelin Box Set I-V Guitar Tab Platinum Edition Books to master every note of Led Zepplin's five albums. On the other hand, if you're teacher working specifically with younger students, take a look at the Alfred Music Puzzler Book & Data CD or the Schott Music For Children Volume 1: Preschool by Carl Orff and Gunild Keetman to make going over the basics fun.
A lot of the options you'll find here come in a number of different mediums too, from traditional books to CDs, DVDs and digital options. All have their own benefits, so it really comes down to how you like to learn or teach.
Produced by top brands like Hal Leonard, Alfred, Carl Fischer, Berklee Press, G. Schirmer, Willis Music, Cherry Lane and so many others, the materials you'll find in this section are professionally designed to produce proven results. Make no mistake about it, if you're looking to learn more, or help guide others along their way, there's no better choice than the strong selection of music books found here.

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Thallion Pharmaceuticals has granted LFB Biotechnologies an exclusive license for the commercial rights to Shigamabs® in Europe, South America, and other territories of strategic interest to LFB, including Russia, Turkey, China, South Korea, and Northern African countries. Thallion retains commercial rights covering this Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) infection treatment for the rest of world.
Thallion is eligible to receive up to €95 million (approximately $129.78 million), including a €1.5 million (about $2.05 million) up-front licensing fee, funding for substantially all future clinical development costs, as well as milestone payments associated with the development, approval, and commercial sales of Shigamabs. In addition, Thallion will earn tiered, double-digit royalties based on product sales in all LFB territories.
Thallion will retain primary responsibility for conducting clinical trials. LFB will be responsible for the exclusive global manufacturing and supply of Shigamabs for both clinical study and commercial sales.
"The collaborative nature of this agreement establishes joint committees comprising members from both organizations that will oversee the development and commercialization of Shigamabs," says Allan Mandelzys, Ph.D., Thallion CEO. "Together, we plan to put Shigamabs back in the clinic and initiate a Phase II study in South America during the second half of this year."
Thallion and LFB anticipate submitting an amended protocol to selected South American regulatory agencies, based on a clinical protocol that had been approved previously by both the Argentinean and Chilean authorities. The companies anticipate starting a Phase II study in South America in the second half of 2010, coinciding with the initiation of a high-incidence season for STEC infection in the Southern hemisphere.
Shigamabs consists of two mAbs designed to bind specifically and exclusively to the Shigatoxin 1 and Shigatoxin 2 toxins secreted by STEC bacteria. The Shigamabs antibodies, administered as a single intravenous injection, bind to their respective toxin and neutralize them by forming a complex that is absorbed and destroyed by the liver and spleen, Thallion explains.
"This transaction transforms our company into a focused Shigamabs play with a strong and stable balance sheet and a quality partner with extensive experience in both the development of monoclonal antibodies and the commercialization of hospital-based products that treat rare diseases," Dr. Mandelzys adds.

I'm having trouble with my podcast feed, hosted through my wordpress site. I tried putting up an m4a podcast, sent it through poderator apparently successfully, and it shows up in the feed via my site, but iTunes says it doesn't exist. Could this be because of some miscommunication with WordPress or is that unrelated? I read about needing some different tags to get WordPress to see it as a podcast- does this matter if I'm just hosting the feed through my site but don't care about it showing up on the front end of the site itself? The m4a file is appearing on the feed and when you click on it, a dialog box pops up to open it in iTunes (which works), I just can't get iTunes to see it via the store/feed itself. Any suggestions? Thanks!
Here's the RSS feed, if it helps:

Those who live and work in Warren County will soon pay a little more in taxes.
Warren County Fiscal Court approved a measure to create a storm water sewer agency. The agency will charge a three or four dollar fee to residents of Warren County who do not live in the Bowling Green city limits.
Terry Young was lone dissenting vote.
The fiscal court also approved the second reading of a one percent occupational tax for those who work in the county.
This will not affect those who work in Bowling Green.
Tommy Hunt was the lone dissenting vote for this measure.

My guess is I'll us cforms 2 to generate the form and then do something like the suggestion here:

Designer Jean Interviews
DenimBlog Exclusive: Interview With Frankie B.
DenimBlog got the chance to ask Daniella, the founder and designer of Frankie B. some questions about her brand, the inspiration behind her designs and what is new for next season! Keep reading! A huge thank you to Daniella for this. You can also read the history of Frankie B. by clicking here. The image at the bottom is a sneak peek at the new 2010 look book.
DenimBlog: What inspiration goes into designing a Frankie B. jean?
Most of the time it starts with fabric. once I feel and see a new denim usually ideas start coming in right away. I'm often inspired by street fashion, travelling, music but most of all I would say that it comes from a consumers point of view as me being the consumer I'm always looking for what I want next in my closet.
DenimBlog: What is your latest collection about?
Our latest collection is called "Punk Goddess" and it's inspired by Debbie Harry in the 80's at CBGB's
DenimBlog: Why did you decide to create your brand?
I started Frankie B. because I thought there might be other women out there that would like to wear my jeans. I love fashion and I wanted to work at something that I enjoy doing and have a passion for.
DenimBlog: What has been your favourite memory/experience since Frankie B. was founded?
I would say my most memorable moments are our fashion shows. getting to project my entire vision is very stressful but also so satisfying.
DenimBlog: Do you have a favourite cut you have designed?
My favorite cut to this day is our basic 5 pocket low rise boot cut. So flattering and comfortable.
DenimBlog: How many jeans do you own?
Not enough but probably a couple hundred.
DenimBlog: Which jean has been the most popular overall?
Our classic low rise signature 'F' pocket boot cut is still our number one seller. Our most popular fun jean is hands down our heart pockets.
DenimBlog: We all love denim, but what is it that makes denim so important to you?
To me denim is a staple in my wardrobe. I feel that as long as I have a great fitting jean that I feel comfy and sexy in, I throw on a cute tee shirt and some platforms and I'm good to go. I always feel more confident in jeans than any other item in my wardrobe.
DenimBlog: Are there any new trends coming out next season that we should be keeping an eye out for?
You will see skinny cropped styles in interesting washes paired with our light weight denim boyfriend blazer for Spring Summer 2010. So Dixie's Midnight runners!!!
DenimBlog: The boyfriend jeans trend has been a huge hit this season, will we be seeing anymore of this trend from you?
We actually did a new twist on the boyfriend and included a boyfriend trouser as well as a boyfriend blazer. Super cute!
DenimBlog: What makes your brand so different from the others out there?
I think what sets us apart is we are not your basic denim we are known as the going out jean. the fun jean! Our fit is amazingly sexy but also tasteful and comfortable.
DenimBlog: What are your denim predictions for next season?
We are still seeing a lot of requests for skinny's and leggings with some vintage details.
DenimBlog: What is the best feature of a Frankie B. jean? (cut, fit, wash etc)
Frankie B. is known for our fit!
DenimBlog: I know Frankie B. was named after your daughter Frankie but what does the B stand for in Frankie B.?
My dad passed away before my daughter Frankie was born and his name was Barry. So I gave her only his first initial so that people would always ask what it was for and that would give us the opportunity to keep his memory alive.
New Denim Brand: TallGeneZ & Exclusive Interview
Here is an interview with the founder/designer of the new denim brand TallGeneZ. This denim brand seems really unique and fits a market which isn't that popular among other designers. Keep reading for the interview and information about the brand. What do you think? Isn't it a great idea? A brand of denim made specifically for really tall women with premium denim which is glued at the seams instead of stitched. The woman with the worlds longest legs, so long in fact that she is in the Guinness world records for having the longest legs. Just ordered a pair from TallGeneZ, she has never been able to wear jeans before due to length. She wore home made jeans but never properly designed ready to wear jeans.
DB: What inspired you the most when creating your brand?
My wife Amy who at 6ft5 with a 38" inseam personified my whole future client base.
DB: What has been your favorite memory/experience since your brand was founded?
I believe it was seeing the first samples on each model and the ecstatic expression on each models face at having jeans long enough (40 inseam & 42" inseam) in a premium fit. I also feel the use of Kaihara denim helped! 🙂
DB: Do you have a favourite cut you have designed?
My personal favourite is the Coube mid boot in dark rinse, the Kaihara denim in a dark rinse is probably one of the most beautiful denim fabrics I have ever seen. The jean is elevated from a working jean to being able to stand toe to toe with couture level garments. It's 11oz weight Kaihara denim. The next range will also include the 11oz and also a 10oz. The 10oz is very addictive!
DB: What makes a pair of jeans the perfect pair? (fit, wash, cut etc)
The perfect pair is really based on the individual. Tall women can pull off the straight leg jean to perfection. The straight leg is a safe bet for tall women of any shape and size. Boot cuts I suggest for slimmer more athletic figures, even then I prefer the slight
boot cut. I will create jeans upon request, but that is just my personal opinion. For rises nothing too high even, though a longer frame can pull it off I find high waisted jeans to look ghastly. Mid rise is ok, but for my mid rise jeans I make them slightly lower than a normal mid rise. I also never like to go ultra low, a good balance of class and figure dis-play are taken in to consideration in each design. Washes! My favorite part, Robert White who runs his own denim production operation in El Paso Texas is your main man when it comes to denim washes. Both being Brits in the USA Robert has shown me many techniques when it comes to washes. I have to say I can't admit to having a favorite wash, I like the vast amount of options, so my clients will have to individually answer that one. Personally a wax Finnish jeans is incredible. Also oven baked tech-nique which gives the jeans a leather quality also is high on my list.
DB: How many pairs of jeans do you own?
How long do you have? lol In my wardrobe right now (and across many of my rooms) I would estimate a good 30 or more. I wear any brand really, diesel I feel is a good fit for men.

Mike Lanes Premium Denim & DenimBlog Exclusive Interview
Mike Lanes has been a long time denim connoisseur and after years of research and finding the right quality, fit, design, etc he finally has his collection ready for women everywhere! There is a sense of empowerment with this line, his mission is simple: To make you look hot! Each jean is individually handcrafted and unique…just like you. Pick the pair that best suits you. Party in them, love in them, dance in them, and most importantly…enjoy your life in them! We also got the chance to interview Mike! Check it out below and look in the gallery for images from the look book of his new jeans! It's so exciting when new denim brands come on the scene. Check out Mike Lanes Premium Denim here.
DB: What inspired you the most when creating your brand?
I was inspired by life and the freedom to do what I love which is creating and designing. I always worked for myself I have been a Drummer for over 20yrs in hard rock bands (Detriment & Dedfuel) as well as an Actor for 12yrs. I got the idea to starting my own company from wanted to create a denim line that had personality as well as a story behind it…
DB: How many pairs of jeans do you own?
For example; each jean has a theme i.e Rocker Girl…For the girl that rocks with no regret. I wanted the customer to relate to the jean like they would a song or character in a movie that they wanted to become for the day.
Too many…ha ha.
My favorite would have to be Martini Girl which is my straght leg. It's just so flattering on. It's a great night time jean as well as an everyday jean.
Yes, I will be introducing some new girls next season which include Black and white denims with ultra sexy and rock influenced themes. Keep an eye out you don't want to miss this…
DB: The boyfriend jeans trend has been a huge hit this season, will we be seeing any of this trend from you?
I have never been one to follow trends cause a trend is a trend and it dies out. My line has always been about less is more, it's clean, chic, sexy, exciting and sophisticated and that's how it will stay.
It's like putty I can do what whatever I want to it which is the most exciting thing for me.
Fit by far. You have to have a jean that fits like a glove, comfort is everything.
DB: Can you explain the inspiration behind each cut you have designed?
I have eight cuts or styles; Rocker Girl, Martini Girl, Party Girl, Cosmo Girl ,Savvy Girl, Chic Girl, Fun Girl and Wild Girl.
My inspiration was to make a jean for everyday of the week. I want a girl to wake up in the morning and feel like partying so she wears Party Girl or she might feel like going to the office so she puts on Savvy Girl. I want to be that Monday through Sunday jean…
My brand is for anyone that wants to look and feel amazing in jeans.
For one my fit. I have spent three years perfecting my fit. It not only slims out your inner thigh area but creates a boost where needed.
I want everyone to know that Mike Lanes Jeans is here to make jeans for the INDIVIDUAL not trends!

Seven ways to fix up your skin - - tips for dermatological comparison shopping
Pros, cons, costs, and expert opinions for seven treatment options.
Dermatologists use a sometimes bewildering variety of treatments for skin that's wrinkled, loose, discolored or acne-scarred.
Most of the treatments work in the same way: They destroy some or many skin cells, which the body then replaces with new cells.
The greatest difference is the method used to destroy the damaged old cells. Depending on the type of treatment, that's accomplished by friction, chemicals, laser light, radio waves, infrared light, or intense pulses of non-laser light.
With light-based treatments, the effects differ depending on how long the skin is exposed, the strength of the light, and its wave length. At some wave lengths, for example, light is absorbed by water in the skin, which affects water-laden cells close to the surface of the skin. At other wave lengths, it's absorbed by hemoglobin, which affects deeper areas of skin containing blood vessels.
Here's a comparison of seven of the more popular types of skin treatments:
PULSED CARBON DIOXIDE LASERWhat: High-energy laser light eliminates the top layers of skin, stimulating the growth of new skin underneath. During the procedure, the patient is sedated and under local anesthesia. Afterward, the patient takes a painkiller such as Percocet.Pros:The procedure causes the body to grow new collagen, which gives the skin a firmer structure. As new skin grows to replace the layers that the laser removed, it tends to be smoother, with fewer wrinkles, crow's feet, brow furrows, worry lines and acne scars. Effects can last two years.
Cons: The outer skin peels off after about four days, exposing new skin that is raw and oozing at first, then scabbed. Recovery time can last two to four weeks Healing can continue for two months. Relatively high level of side effects can include dilated capillaries, skin redness, scarring and infection. Treatment can produce light-colored "reverse raccoon effect" around the eyes or "doughnut around the mouth." This laser treatment is inappropriate for darker skin, because treated areas can end up discolored.
Patient's cost: $2,000 to $3,000
- "The CO2 laser is the gold standard." – Dermatologist William Groff, La Jolla
- "This is not easy in-easy out surgery. Potential patients have to realize that there will be bruising and swelling and they will be holed up in the house for seven to 10 days. [During that time]they will have a crusty, oozy, bruised, scabbed, raw-appearing face." — Tina Alster, M.D., director of the Washington Institute of Dermatologic Laser Surgery, quoted in FDA Consumer magazine.
ERBIUM LASERWhat: Light from an erbium laser is gentler than light from a carbon dioxide laser and penetrates the skin less deeply.Pros: Regrowth of skin after treatment with an erbium laser can reduce small to moderate wrinkles, sun damage, surface scars, or skin discoloration. It can be used on delicate skin near the eyes and mouth. Recovery time is about five to seven days. In comparison to a carbon dioxide laser, it produces less redness and fewer side effects. Fewer problems with discoloration for patients with dark skin.
Cons: The treatment is less effective against larger wrinkles and scars than a carbon dioxide laser is.
Patient's cost: $2,000 to $3,000
- "None of the lasers is great. Now we're trying devices that are not quite as scary to patients or to us. But the results are not as good." – Dermatologist Mark Rubin, UC-San Diego.
CHEMICAL PEEL What: A chemical such as glycolic acid or trichloro acetic acid is used to remove the top layer of skin, which flakes off within a week.Pros: It can soften and brighten the skin, rejuvenate sun-damaged skin, and improve pigmentation.
Cons: It is ineffective as a treatment for severely wrinkled or sagging skin. After a chemical peel, many patients stay out of work for a week because of their appearance. Skin remains flushed for weeks. Effects dissipate after about six months. Repeated treatments are needed to maintain the effect. Chemical peels may make darker skin blotchy.
Patient's cost: $100 to $4,000, depending on the depth and area covered by the peel.
- "A deep chemical peel can work wonders for patients with a lot of sun damage and fair skin, if they don't mind several weeks of down time." — Vince Afsahi of Newport Beach and Tustin, clinical instructor of dermatology, USC
DERMABRASION What: The surface of the skin is "sanded" down with special instruments. Patients are sedated and under local anesthesia.Pros: The treatment can soften and brighten the skin, reducing surface irregularities such as acne scars. It reduces shallow wrinkles temporarily.
Cons: At first, the treated skin is tender and swollen. After a few days, it looks badly sunburned. Redness can last several months. Treated areas can end up lighter than other areas. Multiple sessions may be needed to achieve desired results, especially against acne scars. It is less effective against wrinkles than a deep chemical peel is.
Patient's cost: About $4,000 for full-face treatment.
MICRODERMABRASIONWhat: A popular low-impact version of dermabrasion using a gentle sanding device.Pros: Little downtime. Can lighten dark spots and relieve acne.
Cons: Multiple treatments required for full effect. Works better on younger skin.
Patient's cost: $100 — $500
PHOTOFACIALSExamples: Intense Pulsed Light, or IPL. Also, the ELOS systemWhat: IPL devices target unwanted skin pigments using pulses of non-laser light. The ELOS system uses both light and electrical energy. Wavelengths are selected that are absorbed and turned into heat by the hemoglobin of unwanted blood vessels or unwanted melanin pigments. The heat coagulates the target's proteins, which are then carried away by the body's immune system. A topical anesthetic is applied to the area being treated.
Pros: Treatment can reduce unwanted redness or other pigmented area. It can also improve overall skin texture. Minimal recovery time.
Cons: The treatment "feels like a rubber band is being snapped against skin." Treated skin stays red for one to three days. Some spots darken, then peel off.
Patient's cost: $200 to $750 per treatment. Three to five treatments needed, one per month.
- "It's hard to go to Nordstrom's and sell shoes all day long if you have a black-and-blue face [from a laser treatment]. That's why IPL has been so successful, because our patients, especially our female patients, can have an IPL treatment, go down to the girls' room, put on their makeup, and they're gone, out playing tennis." – Newport Beach dermatologist Dore Gilbert
SKIN TIGHTENERS Examples: Thermage, ReFirmeWhat: With Thermage, radio-frequency waves heat deep layers of the skin. During the procedure, the patient is typically sedated and under local anesthesia. Afterward, the patient takes pain relievers. ReFirme is similar, but uses the ELOS system, which includes electrical energy.
Pros: Can tighten skin and reduce wrinkles by stimulating growth of collagen. Can reduce acne by shrinking oil glands.
Cons: Occasional redness, swelling, temporary bumps or depressions in the skin, blisters, scars.
Patient's cost: $1,500 to $2,000 for Thermage. $2,250 to $3,500 for a series of five ReFirme treatments.
- "I do a lot of Thermage. It's a radio-frequency (procedure) that has been called a 'nonsurgical face lift,' which it isn't. It's a skin tightener." — Jack Gutman, D.O., Doctors of California Laser and Cosmetic Center, Anaheim Hills.
- "ReFirme is not a face lift. If the patient is 75 years old, a smoker, with centimeters of lax skin, this is not the procedure for him or her. But there are numerous patients who are middle-aged, in very good shape, non-smokers, who take care of themselves who have modest expectations. They do quite well with this procedure." — Vince Afsahi of Newport Beach and Tustin, clinical instructor of dermatology, USC
