Cyndi Lauper As You've Never Heard Her BeforeThe Creative Shed17 Oct 2016 | 8:15 pmI've been a fan of Cyndi Lauper's for more than thirty years and over that time it's been amazing to watch how she's continued to go from strength to strength. Her voice is as brilliant as it's ever been and it got me thinking. I saw someone had done a 33rpm upload of Dolly Parton's Jolene and I immediately wanted to try the same with one of Cyndi Lauper's songs. And what a gem it's turned out to be. Check out I Drove All Night on vinyl at 33rpm. What do you think? Would love to hear your thoughts

Review: Hole In Your Pocket – The Panics6 Oct 2016 | 10:22 pmI don't know what it is specifically about WA-bred bands, but they know how to write some big songs. As someone who rates The Triffids as one of the best bands to ever come out of Australia, I'm more than willing to put The Panics in that company. And they've produced enough great songs to give Born Sandy Devotional one hell of a run for its money. Yes that's a big call but i stand by it. Hole In Your Pocket is the fifth album from The Panics and it'd be unfair to say they've hit their stride as that arguably happened more than five years ago. This album is polished without sounding self-assured and passionate without being florid. Cinematic is a term often applied to this group and it's for good reason –...

The 2016 Hugo Awards: An Overview21 Aug 2016 | 6:56 amThe Hugos are on again, and I've managed to read the novels. The range this year is varied, with series science, high action fantasy, and completely original takes on old themes on the nomination list. First of all, I have to say that I have avoided getting into the problems that the various puppy groups have bought to the Hugos. It's not a question of do I think they are right or wrong – personally, the points that they bring up about the direction of the genre prove we have a living genre that is always evolving. Instead, I have taken each book on its merits and have been impressed this year with the overall quality of the writing. If this was an award based entirely on writing ability, the decisions...
Review: The Cinder Spires – The Aeronaut's Windlass21 Aug 2016 | 6:42 amJim Butcher does fantasy and does it very well. In The Aeronaut's Cutlass, Butcher shows how well. In the fantasy world he sets up, the population live in a number of spires which are accessed through airships. Once this is set up, the action starts, as an attack is launched between two spires, and the pace barely slows from there. In a fantasy novel, the setting is the major thing. The steampunk setting is very well realised with the information dumps and techncal details kept to a bare minimum. The canvas for the story is easy to picture thanks to Butcher's descriptions. What I found interesting was that I saw all this in an Anime setting, which is not something I usually do. Caught up in all the...

I've been in SL for 10 long years, and first thing I wanted to be was an androgynous dancer! - Then something went different than I planned, and I became an artistic photographer. I love a nice deep discussion and I love to know, learn, explore, roleplay, whatever SL has to give, I like to live it all. Aside voice, voice, I don't really like.

FabFree – Fabulously Free in SL
Perfectly Posh in Pearls22 Oct 2016 | 1:06 pmHappy Saturday, wonderful readers! This morning, Ripley and I started our weekend the way we always do… reading the Fabulously Free in SL blog. While I was admiring Loki's sensuous photo here, Ripley insistently nosed the Group Gift Listing link in the corner of the Fab Free web page. Of course, with my pooch's gift for finding fashion, I immediately followed his lead and discovered not one, but two, new, free, fabulous gifts for Fab Free group members that, in my mind, coordinate with each other spectacularly. With a few quick teleports and clicks, I became the proud new owner of Posh Tale's free, elegant Margot gown and Tiffany Designs' free back necklace. The opulent sheen of the double...

I decided to wear it with a pair of leggings (because you know it's pretty much "legging weather" [See this video for legging enlightenment and a giggle]) with my sweater dress, but it is indeed long enough to wear just as a dress if you like. This gift comes in XXS – L mesh sizing with co-ordinating alpha layer. As the collar of this top is rather...

I'm doing pretty well myself, especially after indulging in a little retail therapy at the current round of Kustom 9. This round of Kustom 9 is an anniversary round. Can you believe Kustom 9 has turned 3? In it's relatively short time in Second Life, Kustom 9 has become one of the events I personally enjoy the most. I like the fact that it has remained a smaller event while still bringing in quality designers, at least in my opinion. In celebration of this anniversary, most if not all the participating vendors have put out a 9 linden gift. I picked up several, and the ones shown here are just a handful that I thought went well...

Fall in Love14 Oct 2016 | 7:09 pmI went to The Seasons Story event and had a blast! I wanted fall decor, so I played a bunch of machines that had gorgeous prim food and decor. Some decor seen here are from: Disorderly & Cureless, Silvery K, Tenacio (all found @ the event); the rest are from Tres Blah and What Next. I also found the most amazing pair of jean shorts from Empire! These would normally be a bit too cheeky for my taste, but today it really suits my mood. The jean shorts are sold as a single pack of 20 colors, includes a HUD to change the colors/textures. I'm doing my best to cover events that I find worthwhile, but there are just so many. I have to really like an event to recommend it to you guys, and The Seasons Story is...
Dance9 Oct 2016 | 9:47 pmYou have to get the new dance pole from Dutchie if you love dancing in SL! I threw so many parties with the Sine Wave dances that this brings back a lot of memories. I remembered that Melanie and I were always dancing when we were noobs; I just know she would be thrilled to with this updated dance pole. I was never a stripper dancer in SL, but I craved animations cos our avatars were so awkward and stiff. I saw a video that Dutchie posted on her Flickr, and felt inspired to do my own. I haven't made a video in a long time, so my editing is sloppy but it was a super fun project! I hope you guys like it! Filmed at my home, if you want to see a "house tour" let me know in the comments! What I'm...
Pandora Resort8 Oct 2016 | 1:23 pmHello from Pandora Resort! I blame my computer for not rezzing all the textures properly, cos there are still some things that remained blurry. I brought along my Autumn Bicycle from What Next. It is for decorative purposes only, but there are other bikes for sale that you can ride at the store. I love autumn and will try to blog lots of seasonal things this month. A few days ago, Caroline and I went to SaNaRae to find some goodies and discovered that most of the brands had gifts out to celebrate the 1st birthday! I love free gifts; events don't really do this anymore, but it gives me joy when things are free. My favorite find at the event is the dolls and hair accessories from Apple Girl. I played...

Critical Components of a Training Simulation That Help Corporations Succeed17 Oct 2016 | 8:39 amThere's nothing more exciting to a learner than the instant when everything "clicks."

The positive aspects of training in a simulated, virtual arena include immediate feedback, hands-on learning, and real-life scenarios, to name just a few. While there are myriad benefits to the virtual learning experience that is simulation training, not all simulations are created equally.

Evaluating Training with Kirkpatrick's Four-Level Model6 Oct 2016 | 7:51 amIt is important to be able to measure the effectiveness of any training. No one wants to spend time or money on a training that does not have a good Return-on-Investment (RoI). Kirkpatrick's Four-Level Training Evaluation Model is an excellent model to help analyze the impact of training on the organization. Donald Kirkpatrick, Professor Emeritus at the University of Wisconsin, first published the Four-Level Training Evaluation Model in 1959. It has since been updated.

Brazil's Silva Taps Voter Discontent
Strong Debate Performance, Frustration With Incumbent Propel Socialist Candidate Ahead of Vote
SÃO PAULO, Brazil—Just over a year ago, a million Brazilians took to the street to vent displeasure with political corruption and poor government services. Now, they look poised to channel that frustration into the ballot box.
A late entrant in the campaign, Socialist Party candidate Marina Silva suddenly has become the undisputed leader in the October election by transforming the protest movement's reservoir of discontent into potential votes.
A poll released late Tuesday by the Ibope research firm showed Ms. Silva defeating the incumbent Dilma Rousseff with 45% to 36% in a runoff. She looked every bit the front-runner later that evening with a strong performance in the first televised debate between candidates leading up to October's elections.
The 56-year-old former senator and environmental activist has tapped a demographic previously out of reach for candidates: voters so fed up with Brazilian politics they were planning to file blank ballots instead of picking a candidate. With Ms. Silva in the race, the number of planned "blank or null" votes fell by around half to 7%, the poll showed.
"Her voters have the same profile as the protesters, younger, more education," said Marcia Cavallari, who runs Ibope's Inteligencia public-opinion division, in a televised interview. "She represents this desire for change, doing politics differently."
A win for Ms. Silva could help redraw a political system dominated by a rivalry between the governing leftist Workers' Party of Ms. Rousseff and the more conservative opposition Social Democracy Party, represented by third-place candidate Aécio Neves, said political analyst Ricardo Ribeiro. That could spur a developmental leap for Brazil, which embraced democracy in 1985 after a long dictatorship but has struggled with corruption and inefficiency ever since.
Ms. Silva has vowed political overhauls designed to bring more accountability and transparency. At the same time, a Silva presidency could lead to battles with entrenched interests in congress with uncertain impact on stability in the young democracy.
"The existing system is far from perfect, but it brings predictability and order," Mr. Ribeiro said. "How will it work if she is not going to use the existing system?"
Despite these uncertainties, Brazil's stock market has tended to surge whenever polls show support slipping for Ms. Rousseff, whose policies have been criticized for fueling inflation and hurting Brazil's competitiveness. On Wednesday, the benchmark Ibovespa stocks index rose 1.9% to its highest close since January 2013.
Investors seem to like what they have heard so far on Ms. Silva's developing economic platform, including a more-independent central bank, said Tony Volpon, head of emerging markets Americas at Nomura Securities International in New York. "Her views on fiscal and monetary policies are in line with what the market would like to see next year in Brazil," he said.
In June 2013, around a million Brazilians took to the streets in dozens of cities demanding better government. They vented frustration with a range of ills, from rampant corruption to overspending on stadiums for the 2014 soccer World Cup while service at public hospitals and schools remained dismal.
With her approval ratings falling amid the protests, Ms. Rousseff promised a national plebiscite on a sweeping political overhaul that would improve accountability. But the overhaul got stuck in the congressional gridlock. The protests petered out.
Now, Ms. Silva is leveraging those frustrations to bolster her candidacy. In Tuesday's debate, she called on Ms. Rousseff to explain why the promised changes never materialized.
"When we had the protests in June you presented a series of pacts trying to attend to the demands of the population," Ms. Silva said. "Nothing worked. What went wrong?"
Ms. Silva's outsider's story also appeals to voters seeking change. The child of Amazon rubber tappers, she became a senator despite learning to read and write only as a teenager. She is deeply principled, a devout evangelical Christian who made her name in politics as an environmental working with slain Amazon activist Chico Mendes.
Ms. Silva's Afro-Brazilian heritage may give her added appeal in a country where more than half of the population isn't white but most politicians are. Ms. Silva is one of the few blacks ever to be elected senator and would be Brazil's first black president if she wins.
At a time when established political parties are falling out of favor, Ms. Silva broke with Ms. Rousseff's Workers' Party and the Green Party over policy disputes in recent years, burnishing her credibility with some voters. Ms. Silva pointedly avoided the word party when setting up a new one last year, which she calls the Sustainability Network.
The election is still six weeks away and Ms. Rousseff could conceivably close the gap, analysts say. Ms. Silva joined the race after the Socialist Party candidate Eduardo Campos, running a distant third, died in a plane crash this month. Her Sustainability Network had earlier failed to meet electoral requirements to register for the vote. Some of Ms. Silva's poll numbers reflect the enormous amount of news coverage she received as a result of the crash. In 2010, when she made a bid for the presidency on the Green Party ticket she finished third, with 19% of the vote.
Ms. Rousseff also has the advantage of far more free television time than Ms. Silva, where she is expected to attack her rival as an unproven leader who won't be able to manage the day-to-day of governing the nation.
Mr. Neves is expected to attack Ms. Silva's record, and may paint the environmentalist as unfriendly to agribusiness, one of the few bright spots in the Brazilian economy.
Elenita Abranches, a São Paulo education worker who previously voted for Workers' Party candidates, said she has already decided to vote for Ms. Silva, who she said represented the best chance to speed a transformation of the country that began years ago but has slowed under Ms. Rousseff. "She seems very simple and transmits confidence," Ms. Abranches said.

Roger's enhancement techniques are now recognized worldwide and have changed law enforcement's approach to the utilization of facial recognition technology.
Safety costs money, and in New Jersey right now, police officers and governing bodies are trying to figure out if they can sacrifice for safety's sake.
As layoffs become a real possibility for police departments across the state, both parties have different ideas of what safety and sacrifice mean, though. To avoid layoffs and maintain public safety, administrators say they need sacrifices in the name of pay freezes, furloughs, health-care contributions and other concessions.
Officers and their union representatives feel that governments are in search of a quick budget fix and are too willing to sacrifice public safety by laying off officers.
"It's a fact of life that when police aren't around, bad things will happen," said Cherry Hill patrolman Tim Tedesco, an FOP president and member of the Cherry Hill Police Officers Association.

Navajo Street
For more than 100 years the area surrounding this historic neighborhood was made up of a deep-rooted Italian, immigrant population. Navajo street was the focal point of Denver's own 'little Italy."Over time, families moved away and the face of the neighborhood has shifted. But as you'll see on tonight's show, some things never change! Andra Dohrn of Denver Film Company takes us inside the iconic Patsy's Inn, Denver's oldest Italian restaurant.

Asian beauty products > all other beauty products. Asia is famous for creating some of the world's cutest cosmetics, but this Japanese skincare contraption pretty much blows everything else out of the water.
Dubbed 'Skincaretainment' by one commenter we'd probably like to be friends with, the below GIF of a foaming face wash squirting out a perfectly formed rose-shaped glob of soap is currently the most viewed GIF on Reddit.
The face wash in question is called 'Beauty Whip' by Evita, an anti-ageing skincare line owned by Japanese cosmetic giants Kanebo.
Sadly it doesn't officially launch until September, but don't worry because you can still lose your mind over the shots of the dispenser in action.
So satisfying.
So pleasing.
We need to form a help group.
Even the packaging is seriously adorable.
TBH we'd be this happy to wash our face too.

Please also see our Latest Fives News page.
Forthcoming Fives fixtures for the current term are listed below.
Shrewsbury is one of the country's strongest schools in Eton Fives, which is a major sport in the Lent Term. The school has 14 Fives courts (refurbished in 2009) and regularly hosts major tournaments including the National Schools Championships. The sport is popular, with up to 150 boys and girls playing it on any given day.
School matches are arranged during the Lent Term for boys and girls of all ages against all the major Fives playing schools, including weekend trips to play Eton and Harrow.
Both our boys and girls enjoy fairly regular national success: in April 2015 we won the U14 beginners' tournament, the first time a girl had been in the winning pair in the tournament. We won the U16s' competition in both 2013 and 2014.
A key part of the Fives philosophy at the School is to ensure the students want to continue playing when they leave School. The success of this is evident looking at university teams: Oxford and Cambridge sides contain Salopians more often than not; one of our first ever girls to play went on to win a half blue and captain the Oxford ladies; one of our 2015 leavers reached the final of the Universities' tournament for LSE in October 2015.
Any forthcoming Fives fixtures for the current term will be displayed below.

Aeropostale (NYSE:ARO) competes with a variety of other retailers like American Eagle (NYSE:AEO), Abercrombie & Fitch (NYSE:ANF), Gap (NYSE:GPS). We have price estimate close to $36 for Aeropostale's stock, implying a hefty premium to the stock's market price. In this article we visit some of our forecasts for revenue per square foot and then identify some factors that would drive our forecasts going forward.
(Chart created by using Trefis' app)
Aeropostale revenue per square foot:
The revenue per square foot for Aeropostale increased considerably during the economic downturn, while those of some of its competitors Abercrombie & Fitch and American Eagle, declined. This was largely due to the fact that Aeropostale markets itself as a value priced retailer of trendy outfits for teens and young adults. Going forward, we expect Aeropostale revenue per square foot to further increase as the company has added significant customer following and brand value during the recent economic crisis
Following our some key trends that we expect to play out over the coming years and which would drive our above forecast.
1. Double dip recession / A slowdown in consumer spending sometime over our forecast period
As seen during the last few years, Aeroposatle is best positioned to benefit from downturns as compared to peers. Its price points are much lower that competitors but its styles are still resonate and sell well with young teenagers. This makes AEO relatively defensive compared to other names in this sector.
2. Changes in fashion trends
The profitability of apparel retailers depend largely on their ability to correctly gauge fashion trends in each season. Aeropostale is more focused on selling customers what they want based on prevailing fashion trends among its target demographic, rather than forecast what young buyers might want in the future.
When targeting teens, trying to be fashion forward can be hit or miss – providing high returns in some seasons but impacting them negatively at other times. On the other hand, Aeroposatle's strategy provides more stable results over the long-term and this has been proved to be true during the recent downturn.
3. International expansion
The specialty apparel retailers in US are now moving towards emerging markets in Asia. Here again Aeropostale stands to benefit from its pricing + trendy fashion, especially in emerging markets where the demographics and income levels are highly weighted towards the urban middle class who are still conservative on their apparel and consumer goods spend, showing a preference for value prices brands.

After the end of Heisenberg's reign, Saul disappeared into obscurity. In the spinoff, Better Call Saul, we learn about the beginnings of his career when he still went by his born name, James "Jimmy" McGill. This soft cotton/polyester blend t-shirt shows one of our favorite quotes from Jimmy on the show, "Money is NOT beside the point. Money IS the point." Lawyer up with Saul Goodman!

Answer: Sand drains quickly but it does not hold nutrients or moisture for any length of time so you will want to amend the soil with organic matter or import tons of top soil in order to have a beautiful landscape. This might be practical for flower and vegetable garden beds, but not for the lawn area. So, your goal will be to build your soil from sand into loamy soil. Loamy soil is something you build over time by adding compost and organic mulch to the soil and digging it in. You should be able to find bagged compost at your local garden center. Spread it over the garden site and dig it into the soil. After planting your veggies, spread additional compost over the bare soil. Dig this into the soil after the gardening season is over. After a few years of this practice you'll have excellent garden loam and lots of healthy vegetable plants. Best wishes with your garden!

Open For Business: SRT Viper to be Made in Detroit
Larry Jewett
SRT Brand and Motorsports President and Chief Executive Officer Ralph Gilles at the Conner Avenue (Detroit) Assembly Plant in 2010. The plant is being re-opened for the new Viper.
Chrysler Group LLC will reopen its Conner Avenue Assembly Plant in Detroit for the production of the next generation SRT Viper. With the plant's reopening, nearly 150 jobs, both hourly and salaried, will return to the City of Detroit. The Conner facility was idled when production of the Dodge Viper ended in July 2010.
"The next generation Viper will make its return to the product lineup in late 2012 as a 2013 model," said Ralph Gilles, President and Chief Executive Officer – SRT Brand and Motorsports, Chrysler Group LLC. "We're extremely excited that our ultimate American sports car will continue to live on and be produced exclusively here in the Motor City."
Current Chrysler Group hourly employees who previously worked at Conner were first offered the opportunity to return to their home plant. The balance of the positions will be filled by hourly employees volunteering to transfer to the Conner Avenue plant.
In preparation for the reopening, the Conner facility will begin its transformation by implementing World Class Manufacturing (WCM), a system that is focused on reducing waste and making continuous improvements throughout the assembly process to improve quality and productivity.
Viper production began in May 1992 at the New Mack Assembly Plant, then moved to the Conner Avenue site in October 1995. All Vipers that rolled off the line were hand-built in a low-volume, modular process. Over the course of 15 years, Conner Avenue employees built about 12 vehicles a day for a total of 22,070 Vipers.
