As battle of the bands events go, Hog The Stage is one of the most keenly fought competitions Edinburgh has seen in a long time.
The prize is a slot on the Hogmanay main stage - the Ross Bandstand in Princes Street Gardens, playing before Biffy Clyro and The Charlatans.
With three bands from Edinburgh and two bands from Glasgow in the running, the final showdown at the Picturehouse on Lothian Road on 21 November is set to be hotly contested.
Some of the bands and their fans are already creating their own Facebook campaigns in a bid to drum up support. We've even heard some judges have been getting some friendly emails from certain bands' fans, but we are assured the judges are professionals and remain impartial.
So how did organisers Leith Records go about picking which bands will play in which order? Surely going last gives you the advantage? Or does playing first mean judges will have time to think more about your songs?
For the organisers, there was only one way to decide the running order. The video, kindly sent to us by Leith Records, may or may not be inspired by Paul the 'psychic' octopus.

This handsome island chandelier has warmth and style to spare.More Details >
Drawing inspiration from 17th century Tuscan farmhouses, this handsome chandelier has warmth and style to spare. A handsome design with interlacing metal forms and a hand-rubbed Belcaro walnut finish with aged champagne glass.
Customers most agreed on the following attributes:
i recomened this product and all the prodcuts of this store! they are so beautiful.
I searched for months for the perfect fixture for my dining room and knew that I would "know it when I saw it". This is it, and is even better in person. It is really elegant over my 96" oval oak table and I get compliments on it often. It truly upgraded the whole room,[...] Love it so much, I plan to order the mini pendant now for my breakfast nook.
I use this product in a large kitchen with can lights as well. I am finding that I don't use the can lights nearly as much now, as the illumination is terrific.
I get SO many compliments on it-they think it makes my kitchen look classy. It looks very high-end and you have to see it to appreciate the details.
Arrived promptly and VERY well-protected in dense styrofoam and box.
My new kitchen features many stunning items. The one that most people comment on is the lamp over my kitchen island. It makes a statement, is elegant, functional and a little different than the run-of-the-mill lamps I saw elsewhere.
Looks great, great light source.
We are very happy with the way this light looks over our pool table. It is big enough, and provides perfect lighting.
It is exactly what I was looking for to hang in my country French kitchen. The color of the glass and the finish on the metal parts are very good
We use this lamp over our kitchen's butcher block cutting table. After suffering for years with inadequate lighting there, I am thrilled with the soft yet perfect lighting provided by this chandelier. We have a rustic look to our kitchen and it is funny how many visitors comment on how attractive this light is in our kitchen. I am so pleased with the quality of this light I am going to buy another fixture in the Umbria collection for another room.
Looks great over kitchen table, big room, with high ceilings
It makes my kitchen look so much classier and beautiful. I couldn't be happier with my choice! I will buy the coordinating items for sure. The color is perfect for any decor- it blends with black, brown or metallic. I love it!!!

Realignment approved by BOG - Jets move to Western Conference, "Division B"

Not arguing with the rest but I still don't see the point of the wildcard unless it was a crossover from an 8-team division to a 7-team division, effectively negating the discrepancy in playoff odds like the CFL does. The wildcard as currently proposed is no different in terms of weak conference vs strong conference (not the reality of travel of course) than having an East-West crossover in the present system where, for example, 3 years ago the 11th place team in the West had more points than the 8th in the East.
If the quality of competition between divisions was really a concern (i.e. the weak division vs strong division), why have the division leaders under the present system been guaranteed a top-3 spot when it's possible the 3rd place team has less points than the 9th? It still feels like a logical inconsistency to me and makes it feel like they originally had balanced conferences with unbalanced divisions, meaning the wildcard evened out the odds for everyone.

TruVision™ debuts expanded IP camera line with open standards
Interlogix Expands IP and Megapixel camera lines
These new TruVision IP open-standards cameras offer several resolutions that include VGA, 2.0, 3.0 and 5.0 Megapixel models capable of transmitting up to 1080p in real-time, offering full HD capability. Additionally, the complete line is now available in three consistent form factors, with both vandal-resistant indoor and outdoor housings, that are easy to deploy. These cameras help reduce installation time with standard PoE connections in every unit.
"Interlogix is focused on growing our IP expertise and these open-standards cameras can now offer customers a variety of options for their network installations,"
Fifteen of the seventeen new models also support a local SD card to provide up to 32GB of onboard storage – doubling the capacity of most cameras available today – to provide a level of network redundancy in the case of connection failure. The cameras can also be installed for standalone, small or temporary installations where a network connection to an NVR or VMS is not feasible, as the video can be stored locally on the camera.
TruVision IP open-standards cameras can be seen at ASIS in Orlando, September 19-21, Booth #1501, and are available for purchase through Interlogix authorized dealers and distributors in October.

Apologies for the NRR post.
Is anyone on here in the legal profession or has experience of appealing a parking fine?
A friend received a parking fine for overstaying at a motorway services, stupidly ignored all letters from the parking company and now has a solicitors letter threatening taking the matter to the county court.
They and I have read the excellent Money Saving Expert guide and forum but can't see what to do if someone hasn't appealed the charge and now has a solicitors letter.
If you can help please can you PM me? Many Thanks

Report: USC QB Max Wittek to transfer; will be immediately eligible
USC quarterback Max Wittek, who backed up Cody Kessler for much of the 2013 season, will forgo spring practice, graduate in the spring and transfer to another program, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Wittek will have two seasons of eligibility remaining as a graduate student.
According to the report, Wittek said he is looking for the right feel with another school.
"I had talked to Coach [Steve Sarkisian] a couple of times," Wittek said. "What it really came down to was a feel for me ... Getting my degree from such a great university will mean a lot, and ultimately, allowing me to play right away with two years to play was the best way to go."
Wittek split reps with Kessler for the first two games of the 2013 season before former coach Lane Kiffin tabbed Kessler as the full-time starter. Wittek completed 50-of-95 passes for 600 yards, three touchdowns and six interceptions in his Trojan career. The departure of Wittek leaves USC with Kessler, redshirt freshman Max Browne and freshman Jalen Greene as its three scholarship passers. Barring a push from Browne in spring practice, it seems likely Sarkisian will open the 2014 season with Kessler as his starter.

DoD UID Program [Infographic]
The DoD UID Program began in 2004 to track all items purchased by the Department of Defense (DoD.) Each UID number must remain unique unto itself for accurate tracking. Minimally, every UID label must contain a CAGE Code (Commercial and Government Entity) or DUNS Number (Data Universal Numbering System) and a Serial Number. Including other information is optional. We'll show you how to choose the right information for your labels…
Choosing a Construct:
If your label does not contain a part number at all, or if the part number is not encoded into the Data Matrix with the Cage Code/Duns Number and Serial Number, it is Construct 1. If your label contains a Part Number in addition to the Cage Code/Duns Number and Serial Number, it is Construct 2.
Choosing a Format:
There are two formats to choose from: Format 6 and Format 12. The Formats are differentiated by the two different types of text used to identify the Cage Code, Serial Number, and Part Number (if applicable.)
Tip: If you are providing UID labels for the Air Transport Association, you will use Format 12.
Choosing a Layout:
As some items for the Department of Defense (DoD) may have tight space constraints, there are several options for the layout of the label.
DoD's preferred layout is 2.400″ x 1.250″, contains three linear barcodes, one data matrix barcode, and "human readable" text.
If a smaller label is needed, the linear barcodes can be removed leaving just the data matrix code and human-readable text for the Alternate Layout #1. This label would measure out to exactly 2.000″ x 0.750″.
If there are extreme space limitations, the "human-readable" information may also be eliminated to leave a properly encoded data matrix. This is the Alternate Layout #2 and would measure out to exactly 0.625″ x 0.625″.
Note: If your item is still too small to label, the Mil-Std-130 specification does allow for a "Bag & Tag" solution to label the packaging for the item.
An Expanded Layout is also available if needed. For this layout, any additional information added to the label will not be encoded in the data matrix, but will be separated by its own identification. Some of the additional data that can be included on the UID label includes an NSN Number, Contract Number, and even a Company Logo.
If you have any specific questions regarding your layout or what information should be included on your labels, we recommend contacting your Contract Administrator directly.
Choosing a Material:
As with all other labels, it is extremely important to pick the best material for the environment the label will be in. UID labels should last the lifetime of the item they are identifying.
The most popular materials for UID labels are:
If you have additional questions, you can reach the UID helpdesk by email at firstname.lastname@example.com or by phone at (269) 961-4745.

I need a help in writing an academic essay please.The essay must be about a famous musican
8 Answers | Add Yours
If you cannot paraphrase, then quote the line and cite the source according to the APA, MLA, Chicago Style, or whatever is required.
The bottom line is to either cite from where words, lines, passages,etc. are taken, or compose in your own voice. Do not take a chance on any other method.
I think that it might be difficult to post the whole essay on enotes. Perhaps, you can identify areas on which you are unsure and can post excerpts of those in this forum?
Paraphrasing, like summarizing, is a specific writing skill that develops with practice. When you paraphrase a passage from a research source, you need to express the idea or information in your own words, without plagiarizing accidentally. Some students make the mistake of taking a sentence or passage, and then simply replacing some of the words with words of their own that mean the same thing. This isn't paraphrasing, though. It is a type of plagiarism.
To paraphrase well, read the passage from your source very closely and make sure you understand it. Then ask yourself, "What does this passage say? What is the author's point?" When you answer those questions in your own words, you are paraphrasing--expressing the idea or ideas in your own language. Most writing texts have sections on paraphrasing, along with examples and practice exercises.
For help with your paraphrasing and general grammar problems in writing, consider this. I notice that you are a college student. See if your school has a writing lab that offers the services of tutors. Most colleges, I believe, now provide free tutoring for their students in a lab environment. Frequently, the tutors are students themselves who are very skilled in the conventions of writing. If you have access to this kind of help, do not hesitate to use it.
If your school does not have a writing lab with tutoring, see if you can find some other students on campus to form a writing study group. Reading and editing each other's papers is very helpful. Also, you can post specific questions about your paraphrasing and grammar on the enotes Grammar and Composition Group discussion board. The link appears below. Good luck with your work.
I think you need to identify a few things in preparing to write this essay. The first is if this paper is a biographical essay. Do you simply have to write about the musician's life? Are there other elements that you have to incorporate into the paper? Once you have figured this out, you will have to sit down and determine how you are going to structure this essay. My guess is that you will talk about the musician's background, some of the influences on the musician, what characterizes the musician's work, some significant samples of their work, and their legacy in their field. For each of these points, you will need to have evidence and explain your thoughts significantly.
I think making sure that you have the evidence and the information provided and the sitting out to outline or sketch out your thoughts will help you develop a draft, and from that your essay.
The sites below are designed to help you write a formal paper. Even if your essay is not a formal paper, I think the sites below will be able to help you generate ideas, collect the best data, and begin the process of drafting your paper.
If you can write about anyone, Claude Debussy of France is a composer who embraced the Impressionist movement that swept his country at the turn of the 19th century. Like the painters of his time, his works break away from the concepts of traditional form and harmony, yet they are delicate and pleasurable. One of his most famous works is "Afternoon of the Faun," a piece that has heavenly lilts and turns and sensory components that are not dependent upon one note. His work is often called the transition from the Romantic Movement in music to the Modernist. Debussy, in fact, declared that the primary purpose of music is to give pleasure to its listeners.
You can find much information on Debussy easily. There are audios of his music, as well, to which you can listen. For help in constructing your essay, see the enotes how-to topic sites Happy listening!
(Debussy has been called the greatest composer of music for the piano since Franz Liszt.)
sometimes i face a sentence that i can not parafrase it . what should i do in this case?
Thank you very much.
Thank you both for your help.
But sometimes I do not have problem with writing the eesay, the problem is even how to paraphrase the sentence if I use a source or in the grammar.

Genre: Fantasy
Chapter1 (v.1) - The Returnee's 3
Hurrying out of the room still holding the photo of her and Emily, she actually felt like she is finally going to be free after carrying the guilt of having to feel, feelings that belong to others who she does not know but never able to feel the feelings of thaws close to her. Knowing she could not feel the fear in Emily when she vanished and follow that to help her has hornted Alve ever since that exact day today 6 years ago. Walking down the long old wooden floored hallway Alve felt as thaw she could not leave this house fast enough. The feelings were physically trying to stop her leaving. She sensed the feelings have been trapped in this house for a reason and have been using her to survive but without her they will slowly become like a memory but a memory of a feeling and never truly exist again. She felt the feelings grabbing hold of her body and making her feel terrible sensations in her body that hurt but she continued to try and fight what is happening to her. She caught her break from the feelings when her dad yelled out from the steer way you need to hurry up Alve we need to go now! The feelings must have been distracted as the pain shooting nearly everywhere in her body was growing more and more intense suddenly vanished. Taking advantage of the opportunity fearing she might not ever get to leave this house she ran as fast as she could move towards the steers. As she reached the top of the steers she slipped backwards landing on her back and scooted down the steers on her back. As she was smaking and banging her way down she bashed her head so many times that's she passed out.

Calendar Import updates your OwnerRez calendar with bookings created in a listing site. On import, this will create a blocked-off time or booking in OwnerRez, depending upon the amount of information available in the iCal feed from the listing site.
To create a calendar import, go to a property page (under Properties) and go to the Calendar Import section for the property. Click Import Calendar to add a new calendar import, and enter the Calendar Export URL from the listing site:
When you create the import for the first time, it'll do an initial pull of items from the calendar, then automatically update every few hours. You can view the last status in the log under the calendar import.
Currently, Airbnb, VRBO, and TripAdvisor all provide enough information in their iCal feeds for us to create bookings. If you want bookings with guest info and charges from other sites, you'll need to add that information by hand. For other feeds, go into the blocked off time and use the new "Convert to Booking" button to convert the block off to a booking.

Unusual number of UK flowers bloom
Geege Schuman stashed this in Climate Change
Stashed in: Plants!, Weather!, Botany
To save this post, select a stash from drop-down menu or type in a new one:
Botanists have been stunned by the results of their annual hunt for plants in flower on New Year's Day. They say according to textbooks there should be between 20 and 30 species in flower. This year there were 368 in bloom.
"We are now in our fourth mild winter. Normally flowers get frosted off by Christmas but this year it hasn't happened."
He said 368 species in flower is an unprecedented 15% of the flowering plants in Britain and Ireland – an "amazing" total. The high count was partly due to the growth in the number of volunteers - but mostly due to climate change, he said.

Sexual Selection and the Descent of Man: The Darwinian Pivot
€ 42,99
Lieferbar innert 2 Wochen
Dezember 2006
BeschreibungJust over one hundred and thirty years ago Charles Darwin, in The Descentof Man and Selection in Relation to Sex (1871), developed remarkably accurateconclusions about man's ancestry, based on a review of general comparativeanatomy and psychology in which he regarded sexual selection as a necessarypart of the evolutionary process. But the attention of biologists turned tothe more general concept of natural selection, in which sexual selectionplays a complex role that has been little understood. This volume significantlybroadens the scope of modern evolutionary biology by looking at this importantand long neglected concept of great importance.

Have CIOs have had their day as the face of IT decision-making within organisations?
In previous years, IT managers and CIOs had sole control over IT spend and implementation, but are increasingly finding that their influence over this area is decreasing.
Today, line-of-business departmental heads with a variety of job titles, and from a variety of backgrounds, are making software deployment decisions within organisations that significantly impact the productivity of their staff.
Indeed, a recent study from Gartner has shown that although CIOs still oversee and maintain the majority of IT spending, there has been a recent shift away from centralised IT buying decisions.
>See also: The dangers of shadow IT
Today, business leaders are taking more ownership and getting more involved that ever in the IT decision-making process than ever before.
The consumerisation of IT has also been significant in eroding the power CIOs once wielded. Now that every employee has a smartphone or iPad, a new age of business decision-making has emerged.
Excellence in user experience in the consumer arena is driving expectations of department heads for similar experiences with business solutions. Department heads want to find business solutions for themselves without waiting for IT.
The lack of a consistent, unified approach to software deployment undermines the CIOs control and makes a security breach more likely.
So, how do CIOs survive in this brave new world of de-centralised IT?
It is becoming increasingly clear that CIOs must adapt to a position of governance and consultancy and promote new tools that will allow those from a non-IT background to thrive.
CIOs must understand that they will not survive if they try to maintain a monopoly on technology spends within their organisation.
Firstly, CIOs can play a valuable part in advising the various heads of departments before they part with their cash.
With an oversight of all solutions, the CIO will be able to ensure that every department head understands the security implications that come with choosing new software, and take on an advisory role for this new set of decision makers in the organisation.
In successfully adapting, they will become influential in pointing these decision-makers in the direction of solutions that are pre-configured for quick deployment.
This will get teams up and running fast for secure mobile collaboration across organisational boundaries, and will deliver increased team productivity immediately.
This is not to say that CIOs will no longer be a part of the decision-making process. This simply represents a shift from a tactical position to one that is more strategic.
It is easy to imagine future CIOs as being more like the whips of Westminster. Instead of agonising over votes, they will be hounding down departmental heads that ignore the security risks associated with their decision-making. This will be their new method of governance.
In this way, CIOs will become enablers to a new age of business decision-makers. They will be the go-to guys who can consult on issues like productivity and security, ensuring that each business unit is using software that maintains the same standards.
This enables CIOs to keep all sensitive business data secure and compliant, without interfering with the varying workflows that different teams in their organisation have.
>See also: 6 tips to avoiding rogue IT
Advising in favour of the right solutions to get teams easily and securely connected to the people and content they need, wherever they are, will be the way CIOs get business done in future.
Clearly, they will not be able to ride the wave of consumerisation that is sweeping across all businesses if they do not evolve.
This changing of the times means that if they can't beat them, CIOs will have to join them.

Aprilaire 700 Humidifier
One of the highest capacity humidifiers sold with a evaporation rate of 0.75 gallons per hour.
As a whole home humidifier the Aprilaire 700 has an output of 18 gallons per day and it can humidify a home of up to 4,200 sq ft easily. The humidity is added directly to your home airflow and the humidity is distributed around your home by adding the unit directly to your cooling and heating system. As the Aprilaire 700 connects directly to your water supply there is no need to top up the unit yourself manually. The humidifier draws warm air directly from your furnace, through a built in fan, boosting it's overall efficiency.
Benefits of Evaporative Humidification
Few people realise it but home air quality has a direct impact on your overall health and wellbeing and improves your home enviroment.
Benefites include:
- Prevents Flu and Allergies
- Neutralizes Static Electricity
- Reduces Pet Dander and Discomfort
- Protects Fine Furniture and Wood Floors
- Relieves Dry Skin & Scratchy Throats
- Reduces Heating Costs
How It Works
The Aprilaire 700 has been designed to integrate with the HVAC blower. It adds moisture to the air by taking hot air from the blower to evaporate water and distribute it around your home. If your home humidty drops below the ideal level whilst the HVAC blower is running, water is added to a distribution tray on top of the humidifier unit. The tray has numerous outlets along it's width designed to allow water to flow evenly across the unit.
Gravity is utilised to allow the water from the outlets to run through the water panel evaporator. Warm and dry air from the HVAC blower is pushed through the water panel causing the water to evaporate naturally. Finally the built iin fan pulls the moisture from the water panel and out to humidify your home.
It's All About Balance
The Aprilaire 700 can easily restore the moisture balance
in your home with the ability to cover an area of 4,200 sq. ft.
even the largest of homes can benefit.

Easy Installation
What Are Aprilaire 700 Owners Saying?
M. Jourdan
Spent many hours researching how to install a whole house humidifier and this one was recommended many times. When our furnace got serviced this fall the technician also recommended we get a humidifier and when I asked him which model this is the one he recommended. It's really hard to find anyone selling this unit because the manufacturer doesn't want just anyone to install it, they recommend a technician so I was pretty happy when I found it on Amazon.
R. Vest
I had been researching whole house humidifiers for some time and finally decided on this Aprilaire Model 700 Automatic Whole-house Powered Humidifier with Digital Control from talking to local HVAC installers and reviews I located online. I checked around and the lowest I could find someone to install it for me was $350, so I decided to take the plunge and do it myself.
Cali Girl
We are so happy with this humidifier! We live in an area where the air gets very dry and it was making us miserable. We had to play with the settings to get just the right level but we have been very happy with this unit and highly recommend it to everyone!

Kangaroos, nature and nurture
A few years ago on a trip to Australia we met some kangaroos.
*Adopts Rolf Harris voice* I met this little fella (right) on my recent trip to Florida. He was fast asleep in his 'pouch' – basically a shoulder bag – but we were still able to stroke him.
Last week I saw a report on the news about how Kangaroo meat is becoming more popular Down Under. I know some will argue that they need culling, there are too many of them, we eat beef so why not kangaroo? But it's not something I could ever feel comfortable with. And you know what? They. Were. There. First. They also release practically no methane, which is kind of important, when you think about it.
*This is my entry to the Gallery – the theme this week is Nature.

My favourite, kangaroos. When I lived in Sydney I saw many and I especially loved the little "Joeys". The first time I saw them, in the Sydney Zoo, we touched them as well, but it was nothing in comparison when we were travelling around Australia, and on a few occassions we were just a few steps away from them in wild nature.
Oh bless how cute is that!
Really cute pic, love it!
So so cute 🙂
OMG brings back such lovely memories – he had just the softest, softest fur… *sigh*
Great pic. Kangaroo meat? Are they farming them? Interesting parallel with beef and pork etc. Kangaroo just doesn't seem right somehow.
Awwwwwwwwwwwww. No way could I ever eat kangaroo.
Awww… so cute. We saw some at Marwell on Saturday and they look so cuddly. I'm not sure I could bring myself to eat kangaroo either.
Sooooooo cute x
Awwww very cute!
Awwwww…super lovely
Such an adorable picture, I so want to visit Australia! And yes, very good points made, too. I know I couldn't eat it.

Letters to a Young Painter
Street artist-turned-gallery sensation Gregory Siff has always painted, but he didn't always want to be a painter. He came to L.A. from New York City to write and star in the movies but as far as he's concerned, things turned out fine. He has a distinct drawing style that persists across his portraits, urban landscapes and geometric abstractions instantly recognizable despite its relative simplicity, and vibrating with life and chaos. But as is evident in Gallery Brown's exhibition of his recent painting, works on paper and mixed-media sculptures, Gregory Siff: "Matter of Time," he is still writing those stories. Text is frequently an element of his compositions in ways that define pictorial space but also move the plot in this case, expounding on time's irrevocable passing, and the struggle to keep it together when life changes direction on a dime. "I am working on dueling canvases called Life and Death, a recipe of everything I love about everything. There are a lot of unknown markings yet to be made and I like that the story isn't over yet. They are so close to being done, and they look at me as I write this and say, "Don't tell them what we look like, you don't want to ruin the movie.'" Gallery Brown, 140 S. Orlando Ave., W. Hlywd.; Sat., Oct. 20, 6-10 p.m.; exhibit runs Tues.-Fri., 11 a.m.-5 p.m.; Sat., noon-4 p.m.;, thru Nov. 20; free. (323) 651-1956, gallerybrown.com.
Tuesdays-Fridays. Starts: Oct. 23. Continues through Nov. 20, 2012

Kristi Berkland, one of our Personal Stylists at the Fashion Centre at Pentagon City, put together three looks for spring and summer for under $150. Check out her budget-friendly recommendations (modeled by her lovely volunteer, Whitney).
Bobeau Sleeveless High/Low Blouses | Vince Camuto Midi Tube Skirts
Work. Every wardrobe needs a black pencil skirt—the more fitted and forties-inspired, the better. This skirt will work all through summer and will pair with fall's nipped-in blazers and sweaters. The top is another key story for spring with its graphic black and white pattern and easy, feminine fit.
Mural Utility Vest | Edyson 'The Sloan' Skinny Jeans
Weekend. Whitney is wearing one of my favorite spring trends: the sleeveless jacket. This one features another big spring story with its rose print and fun moto-zip details. I've paired it with an unexpected dotted skinny for a fun, casual look.
Astr Cutout Shoulder Dress | Collection B Crossbody Satchel | Isaac Mizrahi New York Perforated Belt
Event. Whitney is ready for a summer garden party wearing a vanilla dress and sherbert pastel accessories from Savvy. The pleats and sleeve cutouts make this cream dress perfect for any warm-weather event. I've chosen a perforated belt and lilac crossbody to complete the outfit. A pastel crossbody is a fun and practical addition for spring and summer!
Love these outfits? Our Beauty Stylists put together looks to complement all three. Check them out on our Beauty 24/7 blog.

Three of our personal stylists at the downtown Seattle store are teaming up to bring you six of their favorite trends for spring—including tips on how to wear them:
1. Color pops and neon accessories. Neons and bright colors on jewelry, shoes and handbags pack a big punch in small doses. Try pairing a neon clutch with a beige trench coat or a set of bright bracelets with a black-and-white striped shirt. (Pictured: Furla Transparent Rubber Satchel | MARC BY MARC JACOBS Puffy Bangle | kate spade Pump)
2. Caged sandals. Caged sandals make almost any outfit look current, confident and adventurous. This is definitely a type of shoe that gets noticed. (Pictured: Jimmy Choo Caged Sandal | Gucci 'Ursula' Sandal)
3. Clear, glossy lips. Clear lip gloss calls attention to your lips but still seems effortless and natural. Bonus: this goes with any look! (Pictured: Bobbi Brown Crystal Lip Gloss | Kate Somerville Lip Treatment + Gloss | M·A·C Clear Lipglass)
4. Camo. It really stands up to the test of time. It is tough and urban, yet casual. Try adding camo elements to more feminine apparel to celebrate the contrast. (Pictured: Free People Camo Blazer | Haute Hippie Camo Trousers)
5. Leather shorts. If you can pull off this look, why not? Leather shorts are a great reason to pull out those caged sandals, or you can wear them with a dressy T-shirt and several layered skinny necklaces. (Pictured: Milly Shorts | T by Alexander Wang Shorts | L'AGENCE Shorts)
6. Lace details. Lace is so feminine and delicate. To stop it from being overly sweet, pair it with a structured or tougher piece—like a lace top underneath a structured blazer, a lace skirt with a leather jacket, or lace where you'd least expect it, like on T-shirts or tennis shoes.

I would describe my style as modern and on-trend, while keeping up with the latest in men's fashion and up-and-coming brands. I am passionate about finding my customers key items to update and modernize their wardrobes. I enjoy putting together great, easy-to-wear looks. I like helping each customer bring out his or her individuality.
Paul Murphy
My style is best described as classic preppy with some modern edge. My approach to styling is very basic in concept: "dress for the occasion." I customize my styling to each individual, making sure the fit is just right. Ultimately, I want my customers to feel good and leave with an amazing experience!
Brent Martin
I would describe my personal style as modern and tailored. I love helping the customer find his or her signature style. I also love helping find silhouettes that show off what is positively unique about a person while creating a comfortable and supportive experience in the fitting room. Once my clients have the proper basics in their wardrobes, we then get to have fun adding the right fashion pieces to the mix.
We asked four of our Personal Stylists to talk about their favorite trends for spring and what it's like to be a stylist. No surprise, these ladies know their stuff! If you've never booked a complimentary appointment with one of our stylists, read on and get inspired. We consider them to be your secret weapon to a wicked wardrobe.
Kiffa, Roosevelt Field, New York
"My style inspiration comes from many places: museums, vintage magazines and a few favorite celebrities, of course."
Kiffa is an intuitive stylist who revels in the unexpected. She especially loves when a customer comes back into the store and tells her how much they love what she picked out. "It makes me feel like I'm changing their lives!" One thing is for sure: change your accessories and change your mood.
Kiffa's favorite way to play up an outfit with Accessories.
Melissa, Horton Plaza, San Diego
"I have to really understand not just what's happening in fashion, but how it relates to my customers and their lives, and how they want to present themselves to the world."
Melissa's styling philosophy: "The better you know someone, the easier it is to get it right." For her, it goes beyond just creating new looks, but creating relationships, as well. Of course, she also loves working with all of the beautiful clothes.
Melissa's list of key spring trends.
Nicole, Scottsdale Fashion Square
"It has to be you. It has to feel good."
"Making magic happen!" That's what Nicole says is the best thing about her job. As a Nordstrom Personal Stylist, she also loves that she can shop the whole store, letting her creativity run free to create exciting and unexpected combinations for her customers. Speaking of unexpected, take the pictured lace dress, for example. "Why not think of the dress differently—layered over or under for a new look every day."
Nicole's recommendations for most versatile pieces.
Deanna, The Grove, Los Angeles
"I love, love, love fashion…but it's important to feel comfortable about what you're wearing."
The most gratifying moment for many stylists is when they get a customer to step outside of their comfort zone and try something new. This is especially true for shoes, which can really be a style game changer. A customer will say, 'I would never have picked this out for myself,' yet they leave the store happy, looking and feeling great."
Deanna's spring picks for shoes:

Jen, one of our Personal Stylists at Nordstrom Fashion Place near Salt Lake City, shares her activewear picks for making sure sticking to those New Year resolutions is easy—or at least more stylish!
New beginnings are equally scary and exciting; the thrill of motivation and resolve can be mixed with the fear of disappointment and abandon. But I challenge you to ignore that fear and push yourself toward a healthier and happier you. And to do it in style, naturally.
This year, I'm challenging myself to drink more water, develop better sleeping habits and exercise more efficiently. Here are my favorite pieces that give me ample fuel to push through the crowded gym.
Pictured: Jacket | Tank | Knee Shorts | Shoes
Outfit 1: When I run in the winter, I stick with a knee-length legging, and the vents at the side on this one are a sporty take on a classic. This Under Armour tank is one of my favorites because it doesn't ride up the side while I run, it doesn't cling in the wrong places, and it has sufficient length–not too long and not too short.
Underneath the tank I'm wearing a Nike sports bra that never fails when I need support for a quick sprint. The twill Zella jacket is so chic for a workout piece, and it helps me beat the cold in the rush from my car to the gym.
Running shoe needs are unique to each runner; I always choose Brooks for my running shoe. This one is a neutral, but sometimes I switch to a shoe with motion control if my bad knees need a little extra support.
Outfit 2: As a former ballerina, Pilates is my favorite form of exercise, and I can't wait to go to my studio in this outfit from Beyond Yoga. This tank has a built-in shelf bra that gives me all the support I need, and these ankle-length leggings feel like a pajama pant. These two items are my must-haves!
Pictured: Sweatshirt | Pants | Boots
Outfit 3: It's been years since I formerly trained in ballet, and I want that ballet body back, so I have resolved to take advantage of adult ballet classes at Ballet West once a week. While my attire will be a leotard and tights, I need to keep warm and comfortable on my way in and out of the theater, and these pieces are perfect in form and function.
The neck on my Nike sweatshirt is unique and cozy, and the Zella capris provide the ideal warm-up gear that I can peel off after a few exercises at the ballet barre. Finally, nothing feels better or more luxuriant for my sore feet than slipping into my UGG boots. That they keep me warm is simply a bonus.
Pictured: Headbands | Tote | Earphones
And we can't forget accessories that will make for the most enjoyable and hassle-free experience. During a workout, nothing irritates me more than having to brush back flyaway hairs that escape my ponytail. The Zella headband is the fashionable alternative that ensures my hair is never given a second thought while I'm hard at work.
I'll often go directly to the gym from work, and a tote that can fit all of my gear is essential, like the one above from Zella. This one even has different compartments and pockets that keep me organized.
Music is the one thing that keeps me running a little longer or lifting a little more. Sometimes you just need Freddy Mercury belting in your ears in order to hit that last mile with gusto, and there's no better way to hear him than with Beats by Dre headphones: the ultimate music experience to propel, pace and push your body.
Looking for even more advice on your best bets for activewear? Contact Jen or a Personal Stylist at a store near you to make a complimentary appointment.
Ever wonder who creates some of the fashion-forward looks you see on Nordstrom.com? Get to know Mary Catherine Muir, Senior Stylist and the brains behind all the beauty. The Thread caught up with Mary Catherine in between her hectic shoot and travel schedule to get the lowdown on all things fashion.
THE THREAD: What's your fashion process as you get dressed for the day?
MARY CATHERINE MUIR: I try not to think about how I put together my garments and accessories in the morning. If I do, I'll end up in some sort of stylized costume—that happens more often than not. I usually walk through the apartment and choose one item to play with. For some strange reason everything else just piles on top of that one item like a magnet—jewelry, scarves, hats etc. Next, I'll look in a mirror and remove one item—believe it or not! The only time I put thought into what I'm wearing is if I'm heading out to an event or shopping for food/wine. I love grocery store fashion drama!
Who's your fashion/style icon?
MARY CATHERINE: Wow! This is a difficult one because it changes daily. Today it is the Mulleavy sisters from Rodarte. They think through absolutely every detail of the garment and shoe design, music, makeup, and hair for their presentations. Their attention to detail is vital and admirable. I prefer unique and dramatic personalities for inspiration.
What inspires you?
MARY CATHERINE: I'm inspired by so many things and people, such as designer Vivienne Westwood, visionary filmmaker Agnès Varda, photographer Miroslav Tichy, absurdist Daniil Kharms, safety pins, white paper, old paintbrushes, mold, gently browned meringue peaks, architecture (especially buildings that look like abstract cologne bottles), the smell of old books and language. What isn't inspiring?!
Any future trend advice you would like to share?
MARY CATHERINE: Watch, learn and create something that makes you happy and inspired. What is currently happening across borders and traveling can help create the trend of the moment. Take that suggestive imagery and own it with the way you put together colors in your wardrobe, the way you might layer your clothing, maybe leaving wrinkles in a garment. You create the trend.
Did you always dream about being a stylist when you were growing up?
MARY CATHERINE: My poor parents! I wanted to be a fashion designer and was constantly rearranging and/or cutting my mother's drapes to make into "hosiery" and bikinis and dresses. At the tiny age of 3 I had absolutely no concept of construction and proper coverage of body parts. At age 5 and on it was de rigueur for me to wear my clothing backwards, upside down and bury things to decompose them. Styling was something that wasn't a practice back then. Few people knew what it was—when I finally figured it out, I learned everything the hard way. So many stories with that one! I was very lucky to work with some incredibly patient photographers, models, and art directors.
If you weren't a senior stylist what would you be doing instead?
MARY CATHERINE: If I weren't a senior stylist, I would be a puppet maker. I've always been interested in movement, animation of non-traditional materials. I might also try designing and sewing unique accessories. Maybe I can do this on weekends!
