We are pleased to share this compensation report to provide guidance to our partner and associate candidates. We have gathered information with the help of our law firms clients and candidates and from our in-depth knowledge of the market. Please note that this report isn't all inclusive as we represent mostly Am Law 100 international firms and top local firms in Tokyo, Hong Kong, Mainland China and Singapore.
Premier law firms are offering increasingly competitive packages in order to attract and retain top legal talent throughout the Asia market. Hiring conditions across Asia are showing steady and noticable signs of improvement with new openings in litigation, dispute resolution, project finance, fund formation, capital markets and M&A.
Interestingly, the Hong Kong market for the last twelve months has been experiencing the continued tussle for HK qualified and US, UK and AUS qualified associates and a few American firms continue to pay their Hong Kong and UK and AUS qualified associates at New York-scale salaries starting at $160,000 for first years. However, it is important to note that not all of their competitors in Hong Kong have followed suit and some are waiting to see how these salary changes develop.
The Hong Kong and Beijing offices of US NLJ 350 firms also saw large increases in their lawyer headcounts this year. Beijing firms experienced an 15% gain and Hong Kong firms experienced a 12% gain.

As the global economy continues to feel the effects of the 2008 recession, it faces both short and long-term challenges. But new and exciting opportunities are being created as the world's markets walk the road to recovery. Southeast Asia has become an area of growth, attracting many firms and attorneys wishing to expand their portfolios abroad. The legal market in Asia is continuing to grow at record speed, changing the landscape for expatriate lawyers with an increase and broadening of opportunities for associates, partners and firms, a rapid and substantial deal flow.
According to the American Lawyer, Am Law 100 law firms had mild gains in 2012. They reported that gross revenue for Am Law 100 law firms was up 3.4 percent, average revenue per lawyer was up 2.6 percent, and average profits per partner were up 4.2 percent. Notably, this growth was uneven and the more successful firms tended to have a strong international presence, and well as a diverse set of practice areas.
Asia is a strong area of international growth and this extends to the legal sector. The Asian legal market is on pace to double in size by 2017, according to Asia Law Portal. Their analysts project the Asian legal market to grow 6 to 7 percent over the next 8 years, creating a strong incentive for U.S. and U.K. to get on the ground floor for fear of being left out.

Xindy for MiKTeX
LaTeX Forum: MakeIndex, Nomenclature, Glossaries and AcronymsAdd tags Information and discussion about MakeIndex - the tool to generate subject indices for LaTeX documents.
I've been working on the installation of Xindy, a flexible, multi-language index processor for LaTeX (and others); for the Windows OS, and specifically for the MiKTeX distribution, which was the only one who did not have the tool (TeXLive has it).
After several attempts, I managed to run Xindy 2.2 in MiKTeX, and the Xindy files are in the MiKTeX main folder, following the MiKTeX folder system.
I uploaded the necessary files to the web, so that anyone with MiKTeX can use it.
The development process log can be found here.
If something does not work or there is an error, please reply in this post.

Hi lartkma,
although I don't usually use MiKTeX I will spread the word among some friends of mine that want to benefit from using Xindy with MiKTeX. I think that they will thank and appreciate your effort (of course, I do so).
Please disregard my previous question. It seems that I have been able to install the required files after editing the PATH variable.
In MiKTeK configuration, I enter xindy instead of the usual makeindex for the MakeIndex task. However, it gives me an error: Script interpreter is not found in PATH. What am I missing?
Hi bqnguyen.
Yes, I found and error when I follow my instructions in computers different than mine, but I never gave me the time for modify. Sorry for that.
The problem is about the Perl interpreter in folder 'tlperl'. I suggest, for now, don't use this (you can erase this folder, and delete the folder's reference in PATH). Try to install a Perl interpreter instead (for example, Strawberry Perl). At the beginning, I don't want to use a new program, but I've seen it's a better option.
I'll upload new files and instructions soon.
Luis Ramirez.
Hi lartkma!
After updating my MikTeX distrib, Xindy is no more installed on my XP (I probably did dirty tricks ).
As your tuto works fine, I would do it again, but the MegaUpload Link is obviously dead right now...
I tried to find another binary on google but I failed. So I dug up this post, to know if you can give us another link
Thank you !
Hi lartkma!
I have reviewed the whole process you have done, but please appreciate it if you can upload files to the server, or even better if you could generate a manual to install Xindy and use for MiKTeX
Maybe I'm asking too much but I really need your help.
Thanks for your answer and help
Andrés Sarmiento C.
Hi Andrés,
welcome to the board!
Speravir posted an explanation here: How to use Xindy with MiKTeX.

The EPA has announced updated standards for lighting and light fixtures to qualify for the ENERGY STAR label. The new standards will go into effect October 1, 2011, and will require ENERGY STAR label light fixtures to increase efficiency 30% above currently qualified fluorescent based fixtures.
The standards are set to be raised yet again in 2013, with performance requirements rising to 40% efficiency over currently qualified models.
A range of new technology options will be available under the new ENERGY STAR standards including fluorescent and LED lighting.
In order to earn the ENERGY STAR label under the new requirements, product performance must be certified by an EPA-recognized third-party, based on testing in an EPA-recognized laboratory. In addition, manufacturers of the products must participate in verification testing programs run by recognized certification bodies.
Light fixtures that earn the ENERGY STAR save consumers money and reduce costs and labor associated with bulb replacement. ENERGY STAR qualified fixtures last at least 10 times longer than standard light bulbs and meet strict performance requirements.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
OCWEN holds payments for weeks, sometimes as much as 5 weeks. Which means your payment, since it hasn't been cashed, will be considered late until you call and deal with the hassle of pointing out that you watched the letter get postmarked, so they pretty much have to admit they do indeed have it.
Several times they have held one or more payments until the morning before one of our checks gets deposited. If you've made the mistake of assuming the payment was already charged and utilize that money for something else, well, they'll collect their bonus check too.
No real service and extremely shady financial dealings. Add to that the obvious love of outsourcing - they now advertise themselves as outsourcing consultants - and what you have is an unethical, corrupt, and unAmerican company.

Ocwen Loan Servicing...
AUTHOR: Archie - ()
SUBMITTED: Saturday, April 13, 2013POSTED: Saturday, April 13, 2013
Why in the world, especially since there is so much being written about how Ocwen does business would I ever let that company have access to my bank account?! There is no way I would authorize any business that outsources their customer service to another country to have access to my bank account! I would be insane to let them have access, especially since they seem to screw up everything they touch. No thank you! I believe in supporting my own country and doing business here - not India, Pakistan, Iran, Irag, Afghanistan or anywhere else other than the U.S. I've had to call them 9 times in the last week to even get information about why I was receiving letters about foreclosure and a "personal assistant" that I am supposed to contact. I am not in foreclosure, have never been late on a payment but the "customer service" department could not explain to me why I received this letter. Oh, and the person's name I am supposed to talk with about it? Of course, it is Indian, and not American Indian. Why should I trust these people to handle my account correctly when I cannot understand a word they say and they don't even live in the same continent??? Yes, I am looking for another mortgage company and hopefully I will find one soon before Ocwen further screws up my account!

PDX: Go by Tram
The tram gives Portland visitors stunning views of the city, river, and mountains beyond. Grab the streetcar from downtown out to the waterfront. You're delivered to the lower terminal for the three-minute ride carrying you 3,300 feet at 20 MPH to the upper terminal at OHSU. Linger for photo ops then head back down to explore. If it's nice, skip the streetcar and walk back along the river. Daily workout, check. Roundtrip cost: $4.
At the lower terminal, the Daily Cafe is an easy find in the atrium of the OHSU Clinical building as you disembark the pill-shaped car, built with precision by the Swiss. Head for the river and stroll along the shore in any weather. Double back along SW Bond Ave and consider lunch at Bambuza Vietnamese Bistro. Check out the pricey high-rise condos on the market in the real estate office windows, then relax in one of the pocket parks to people watch.
It snows in Portland. A couple of times a winter, even downtown gets dusted and it's a huge mess. I've dreamed about getting my ski gear on, grabbing my boards and heading for the PDX Tram at the South Waterfront. I'd casually climb aboard with the patients and medical folks heading up to "Pill Hill" and blow their minds.

The Time Machine
by H.G. Wells
The Time Machine Fear Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #4
I had the hardest task in the world to keep my hands off their pretty laughing faces. It was a foolish impulse, but the devil begotten of fear and blind anger was ill curbed and still eager to take advantage of my perplexity. (5.11)
Fear may be a good motivator – it gets us off our butts – but it doesn't always motivate us to do the right thing. We can compare this scene of self-restraint with the Time Traveller's earlier panic over the lost Time Machine, where he rushes in on the sleeping Eloi and frightens them.
Quote #5
I sat upon the edge of the well telling myself that, at any rate, there was nothing to fear, and that there I must descend for the solution of my difficulties. And withal I was absolutely afraid to go! (5.34)
It's hard to argue yourself out of a feeling, and maybe those feelings are there for a reason. The Time Traveller, who we would expect to listen to his logical, scientific side, is afraid and he doesn't know why. Perhaps he should be.
Quote #6
The enemy I dreaded may surprise you. It was the darkness of the new moon. (7.2)
The Time Traveller didn't know what to be afraid of when his Time Machine disappeared, but now he knows what to fear. Sometimes knowing our demon doesn't help us be any less afraid of it.

Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann and Attorney General Jim Hood have asked that claims against four Mississippi prepaid funeral policy providers be consolidated.
The motion will be heard July 22 in Prentiss County Chancery Court. Hosemann and Hood say consolidation would speed up the legal process.
The four providers named in the motion are Prentiss Memorial Gardens, Baldwyn; Liberty Memorial Gardens, Booneville; Pinecrest Memorial Gardens, Calhoun City; and Sunset Gardens Memorial Park, Laurel.
An investigation began in late 2007 after complaints were filed with the secretary of state's office and the attorney general's office.
Hosemann said the state's investigation found that the funeral policy providers did not properly fund pre-need trust accounts.

'Rebels' continue to be thorn in Dairygold side
Published 12/12/2012 | 06:00
Dairygold farmers with high milk supplies but low shareholdings are continuing to ruffle feathers at the co-op's information meetings.
Some of the most strident objectors to the new milk supply agreement appear to be farmers who inherited holdings with high milk supplies but without the co-op shareholding that had been built up on the back of that milk.
The farmers, who are being referred to by some other Dairygold suppliers as the 'Mitchelstown rebels' but are not limited to that geographic area, claim they will be forced to invest thousands in shares over too short a timeframe.
It is understood that 40pc of the co-op's 3,000 milk suppliers will need to buy additional shares to meet the minimum level required.
One farmer claimed that a supplier with a 100,000gal (450,000l) milk supply but a shareholding of just 2,000 shares would be required to buy 16,000 shares at a cost of €16,000 over just two years.
However, Dairygold chief executive Jim Woulfe insisted many farmers had over-estimated the contributions they would be required to make.
In a statement issued to the Farming Independent, the co-op boss maintained that farmers with fewer than 4,000 shares per 100,000l (4cpl) would be required to increase their shareholding at an annual rate of 0.5cpl of milk supplied. In the example above, it would take just over seven years to reach 4cpl on 450,000 litres, and not two years as claimed by the farmer.
Mr Woulfe insisted the Dairygold shareholding requirement was very low.
"Fonterra has a shareholding requirement equivalent to 20cpl and Friesland Campina has a shareholding requirement at 10cpl, both payable before supply commences," he said.
It is understood there are fewer than 60 farmers with such a large disparity between milk supplies and shareholdings. Nonetheless, industry commentators say these farmers are the most likely to expand in the coming years so their opposition to the milk supply agreement is a thorn in Dairygold's side. Heated debate is expected at the Mitchelstown area meeting, scheduled for Thursday night.
In recent days, all milk suppliers received a letter detailing their individual revolving fund and shareholding contributions, based on their forecast milk supply.
Around 750 suppliers have already signed and returned their milk supply agreement to the co-op. But issues such as the 2c/l penalty on those who don't sign up before March 31, the exclusivity clause and the right of the co-op to deduct farmer debts from farmer payments are still causing problems.
Both the IFA and the ICMSA are to meet with Dairygold management in the coming days to clarify concerns raised by the co-op's suppliers.
However, it is understood that some of the contentious clauses in the milk supply agreement are already contained in the co-op rules, even if farmers were unaware of them.
The co-op's current area meetings will be followed by a series of one-to-one workshops commencing in January 2013.

Richard Abril: I Will Prove That Brandon Rios is No Lion
By Reynaldo Sanchez
WBA interim-lightweight champion Richard Abril (17-2-1, 8KOs) is getting more and more confident as his training camp continues for the upcoming showdown with Brandon Rios (29-0-1, 22KOs) on April 14th at the Mandalay Bay is Las Vegas. The vacant WBA title will be on the line.
"On April 14th, I am going to show [the fans] that Rios isn't the Lion that [his camp and promoters] are painting him to be," Abril said.
Trainer Osmiri Fernandez said - "This has been the longest and best training camp that Abril has had for any fight We are confident in our boxer and he will go to Las Vegas to make a great fight and to conquer this title."
[QUOTE=Tmann400;11974007]I'm telling you guys, DON'T be surprised when you're seeing Rios struggle badly with Abril, Abril is cut from the cloth of craftiness, and although he's a bit awkward looking in his style, he has under-appreciated and underrated skills.

Great Boxer beat Top Pressure Fighters. Good or Okay Boxers Usually dont beat Great Pressure Fighters. Especially If they have no Pop which Abril does not have. So Easy Win For Rios Once Abril is forced to stand his ground.Comment by Corelone on 04-05-2012
Abril can't be all that good, he's only the second guy that I remember that lost to Breidis Prescott, and I really don't remember him either.Comment by LaBéstia on 04-05-2012
Bunch of morons in this thread... Rios is one of the best right now... Nothing special? Haters are going to hate... I wont be surprised when he is in the top 5 p4p and people will still call him NOTHING.…Comment by Tmann400 on 04-05-2012

Re: A survey: what does the ^ accent mean to you?
at 04:57 on 05 January 2008
thank you for this post - very intersting.
i have not listened to ades music in many years - since asyla (i think that's what it is called). i thought he had some interesting music, such as a work for boys and mens choir utilizing quarter tones in one of the most provocative ways i have ever heard outside of arabic music - a stretched out V-I progression.
perhaps he has gone down the toilet. whatever.
I am very interested in patterns in music as a composer - especially the subconscious. it seems clear that our brains work and perceive in ways which our conscious mind cannot grasp.
But then, ligeti wears his music on his sleeve - i love that about his music - so does messien, guibuidalina, xenakis. for my taste, i often find stockhausen to be confusing - not always though - the klavierstucke X is remarkable in this regard. there is also a structure underlying hymnen that is incredibly evocative, although i have never spent the time trying to figure it out.
But under the light of "beauty is the pattern that connects", why is it so easy to dismiss the idea of cross pollination between various genres of music? for me, along with the beauty of structure, is the issue of primary artistic purpose (not to the exclusion of other directions mind you, just what stimulates my creative mind). I don't care about pastiche (that only means of lesser quality in my books), but certainly care about craft.
During my graduate studies, i undertook the research project of studying the WTC books 1 and 2. the primary focus was to observe, study and compare the fugue subjects - to find a pattern(s), to search for bach's voice.
Well, 2 years later, and after extensive research, what i found completely astonished me. there seemed to be a duality of artistic intention - on one hand, there was certainly a constant structure, or to be more fair, a handful of techniques in which bach utilized in order to create a subject which would be both satisfying in fugal treatment, but also an exciting, energetic theme. on the other hand, he seemed to be keenly intersted to pull from a vast variety of musical styles and genres, in particular with regards to the rhythmic structures, which find roots in italian renaisence, as well as modern dance folk musics, or borrowed ideas from other composers such as vivaldi or buxtehude.
So, (assuming that you and others agree that bach was a magnificent, and important composer) why can one today not draw influence from this, and explore relationships with both modern musical popular movements, as well as music that is hundreds of years old?
Why, as roberto suggests, must the composer limit themselves from trying to ingest the whole picture? frankly, i think it is the greater chore to undertake as much as possible. yes, much work, and very difficult, but the reward has the potential to be wonderful.
It has been suggested by some scientists, such as james lovelock or noam chomsky, that it is indeed the narrowing of the scope, the specialist, which is the more dangerous model. by limmitting vision, we do not see the great picture.
"5) anyway who taught you to play in this way Bartok and Bruchner?
poor Solti, Abbado and Karaian...!!!"
please spare me the dramatics.
reference bartok concerto for orchestra mm514 - and tell me if my interpretation of the ^ is incorrect.
my primary trombone teacher for orchestral music was John Marcellus, who was the principal trombone of the national symphony.
the ^ has several meanings whether you agree or not, so, it is wise to be clear - this is good advice.
it's a mess...when you do everything you excell in nothing"
i disagree - see above points.
but, to be clear, the main focus for me is composition. trombone is my physical outlet, my research tool, my muse, my toy, and my source of discipline. playing rock and jazz and classical is not hard to do if you have an open mind, technique, and aural skill. I think i play well, especialy certin kinds of music, but it is composition in which i plan to as you put it, excell.

Sorry Scott I didnt see your reply to my post till just now.
I was editing mine, improving it. When writing a polemic, especially tackling such a large subject one has a responsibility to try and get it right (I tried, I`ll see how I feel about it tomorrow)
I`ll reply to your points soon :-)

Does every thread on this forum go so far off track?
PS: Lawes, you know full well that I meant 'American' as in the cultural-American usage of the >; obviously when I want to refer the the language that I'm typing in I specify 'English,' as I had done two posts previously. Since this thread is about regional differences in education as to the name and usage of the >, I was making a point that the American education system might very well teach us a completely different set of terms and usages for common musical symbols, DESPITE the fact that we may share the same language (look no further than 'quavers' vs. our 'eighth-notes'
. Let's not split semantic hairs here.

Sorry Christopher, re my comment about you not understanding the differences between English and "American" I was wrong, you were right.
I dont agree about the thread going off track, I think it needed/wanted to.
Will reply to Scott`s arguments soon (been busy, just got Xenakis` book Formalised Music, I recommend it)
Re: A survey: what does the ^ accent mean to you?
at 17:40 on 09 January 2008
Answer to Scott/Clarifiction/Etc........
First of all let me attend to the point about Ades as it seems ripe for misintepretation (my fault). I was not making a point about the quality of his music or his right to make it. I was saying that in British commerical/commodity culture someone like him will rise to the top, not because he is the most respected by those "in the know" and not because of his music primarily, but because he is good/safe copy (he does not challenge the established order, and he chats about his music like a "normal" person the "punters" can understand).
This is not his fault in many respects, he has the right to make the music he does and to be the way he is, my point and perhaps Roberto`s is.......Ades et al...fine...but where are the rest? (diversity, where is the continental music? where are the ideas?)
As I said in my first post I spent some time a few years ago listening to work from all the British composers I could find and was not interested in it, I thought it was wishy-washy music about music (Ferneyhough is the only one who has remained relevant to me). If anyone wants to disagree or suggest some pieces to me please do (Johnathon Harvey and James Dillon are two I need to check out again based on recommendations from people I have some faith in, maybe Richard Barrett too, the rest don`t intrigue me based on what I have heard, I may change my mind)
All of those I listed as being dull in my opinion are obviously "real" or "talented" composers, just not to my taste, and not in keeping with my ideas about where we are in our era/culture (I require something more challenging, more inspiring, not just entertaining)
Now onto Scott`s arguments...
First, "cross pollination"....
Fine, do what you want, I was not arguing against it, whatever gets the results as per your personal philosophy. The thrust of my polemic (one sided provocation) was that we in Britain and arguably the English speaking world are turning our noses up at something we don`t understand and cannot be bothered to tackle. I emphasised the more or less classical notion of the "source" and musical unity from clear principles because it needs mentioning, in a culture which calls all music "entertainment" (which means anything goes, as long as it is profitable and politically inert)
I like most sorts of music, however I don`t include it all or play it all, trying to find a pure language of my own, studying Xenakis` ideas at the moment as he is not traditional and has a valuable approach, just need to improve my maths!.(studying that now)
For the media there is no money in it and the politics are dangerous (the media are political in essence, they and the advertisers who pay for it all, or in the BBC`s case the government, don`t want to be challenged and criticised).
For ensembles and funding bodies the problems are related, they know it wll be difficult to promote new and interesting works because the media and government are not interested, which means for them also there is no money in it, and they need to survive somehow, so I suppose the best ones do what they can to cover more challenging and truly contemporary work (not just po-mo junk, which is post-modern in the infrastructural sense not the superstructural to use a "toxic" and unfashionable marxist dichotomy, and no, I am not a "marxist", or a "marxian", or a "communist", I am a democrat)
Add to that the absurdly overheated property market, astonishing levels of taxation for the poor and "artistic" (via a totally unethical disaggregated tax structure, "stealth taxes") and you have a backwards and fatuous culture which has to sell to survive, and what sells today is what sold last week (risks are only taken in hyper-capiltalist culture when the potential returns are significant, oil prospecting and dubious investment in warzones for instance, Disaster Capitalism as described by Naomi Klein).
Look at Berlin by comparison, Im sure it has it`s problems but from what I hear the rents are so cheap it`s attracting artists from all over the world, meaning its much easier to put on new music and attract an audience without it costing the earth (literally it could be said).
It has the high and low so to speak, diversity, the "big" orchestras with all the pros and cons that level of infrastructure brings with it right down to all manner of small ensembles putting on their own performances (I was told by a friend who was there a couple of years ago that a new string quartet by a Spanish "avant garde" composer he had never heard of and could`nt remember the name of unfortunately was totally sold out, standing room only In what was more or less a big living room in a house in the east of the city)
So yes, look to Bach, look to jazz, look to anything, but recognise the culture in my country, and perhaps the rest of the Anglo-Saxon world, needs to change, it is not healthy or "vibrant", that is propaganda designed to sell newspapers and to pay media careerist`s mortgages (keep people watching the idiot box/tv, keep them disatisfied, keep them buying that which never remedies their problems, keep the sources of political capital protected)
A composer is both a specialist and a generalist, and should in my opinion attend to both. To master the technique required to express his/her ideas and to inform those ideas by living in the world, having one`s eyes open and being honest about what one sees, not being lazy and believing the hype (about others work or your own). Read up on philosophy, politics, economics, history, science and so on, see the music in it. This is not easy, but then who said it would be?
I think Roberto`s point about playing everything is not the same as mine above, he is suggesting that you cannot master anything if you do too many things, my point which agrees with his more or less is that all these ideas and experiences have to be focused into a single aesthetic, not dividing ones energies into many areas by trying to be a Jazz musician and a Rock musician and Gagaku musician and so on, just be a musician, the best you can be. Try all these things and learn from them but when you are ready to make a mature statement, focus, focus, focus :-)
To resort to autobiography to make my point.....I have not finished a piece or released anything for four years nearly, I don`t want to cover old ground, I want to know where I/we are today, to make a worthwhile contribution and to make sense of all these threads. It will take more years yet (and I am 30 next month). To quote Paul Dukas....."Do not be in a rush to publish".....that`s how I remember the quote anyway, it means in my opinion, don`t throw the baby out with the bathwater, the quality of the statement is what counts, not whether you publish it next week or in ten years, to rush into things is more a product of a need for social status and approval than anything musical, not something an artist should concern him/herself with in my opinion, feel free to disagree as always.

Some interesting discussion on a similar theme in the two Guardian articles/blogs linked to in the news section on this site...
Re: A survey: what does the ^ accent mean to you?
at 17:54 on 10 January 2008
Quote from a Judith Weir interview in the Telegraph (No I don`t favour that paper etc, they are all rubbish in one way or another as I have argued in this thread, I check most major news sites each day, just happens the Telegraph had an interesting article, albeit rather short and biographical, of course)
"A lot of young composers these days have become very expert at a kind of safe modernism, like Birtwistle mixed with a bit of George Benjamin," she says with some heat, "but you wonder what the point of it is. What do they actually want to say?"
Right on, music about music, safe, what is being said exactly?. (don`t know her music at all so I won`t pass comment on it, wouldnt change my opinion of her comments anyway, I agree with her)

Marine Corps Flags
Marine Corps Flags Overview
Semper Fi! Marine Corps Flags are perfect for vets, families of vets, and anyone who wants to honor the fighting men and women of the USMC.
Brief History of the Marine Corps
The Marine Corps was formed in 1775 by the command of the Continental Congress during the fight for independence. After the Revolution the Marine Corps was disbanded, only to come back into service in 1798. Shortly after it's return, the Marines fought one of their most famous actions against the Barbary Pirates in what is now Libya. Their attempt to take Tripoli has since been immortalized in the Marine Corps Hymn. In the 20th century, the US Marine Corps was front and center in the fight against Imperial Japan during World War 2. Since then their role has expanded greatly to include operations at sea, on land, and in the skies.
The emblem of the Marine Corps, present on their flag, is the depiction of the eagle, globe, and anchor. The eagle represents the United States, the globe represents the corp's willingness to operate anywhere in the world, and the anchor represents the naval origin of the marines.
These Marine Corps Flags are made of durable, high quality nylon. In addition to being a great all-weather flag they will maintain their bright colors even in the fiercest sun. However, if you live in a high wind area, we also carry the Marine Corps flags in heavy duty 2-Ply Polyester.

would like to have an unfinished regular type frame, but this is perfect for those that want to have a frame in a special color. I applied oil paint in red over the unfinished wood, rubbed, and I simply love the finished frame! others I painted in acrylic and finished in oil paint for a richer finish. very happy with finished project!

Well made, but paint grade wood
By fizzyphotog
from Baltimore
Put together nicely -- corners fit well, edges are sharp, sturdily glued and stapled at the corners -- but don't think about trying to stain it, like I did. The wood (some type of pine?) has large, uneven, unattractive grain, and doesn't take up the color evenly. Paint-grade wood, but good quality as such. Sized correctly, it fit easily on some clip-frame glass and backings I have.
Unfinished frame good choice for price
By AP
from Washington
Purchased several unfinished frames for a show. Sanded them then finished with tounge oil. They look great for the price. Had to sand off the stamp that said "made in Mexico " but it came of easily. There were a few dings in a couple but all sanded out just fine. They are nice and square and level.
Will be buying again.
By Ruby's Mom
from Kentucky
I was impressed with the construction and strength of the wood. I like that it's pine; much sturdier than some of the other frames I've bought that seem to be made out of balsa wood. It took stain beautifully. I placed a small strip of thin cardboard in the sides and bottom for a snugger fit for my canvas. My artwork was enhanced by this clean-lined, well-built frame. I will definitely be buying this frame again.
