Storms and other weather events can wreak havoc with a retailer's outdoor signage. Just ask Therese Grossman, construction manager for Edwin Watts Golf Shops, Fort Walton, Fla., which operates 83 golf specialty shops. This past spring, a bad storm with extreme wind velocities came through Baton Rouge, La., blowing the faces off the signs outside Edwin Watts' store there.
"In the retail world, having your exterior signs down is a crisis," Grossman said. "I have to be able to respond and get them back up very quickly."
She was able to do just that with the help of the chain's signage supplier, Harbinger Sign. The national sign engineering and manufacturing company is based in Jacksonville, Fla.
"Harbinger was able to repair and put them back up very quickly, saving us several thousand dollars," Grossman said. "The downtime was very minimal."
Harbinger provides Edwin Watts with a "one-touch" program for its exterior signage. Once the retailer initiates a project, the supplier manages the surveys, permitting, fabrication, installation and servicing of the signs.
"They handle all permitting issues, which is an extremely big deal," Grossman said.
Edwin Watts is not the easiest of clients, according to Grossman, due to the fact that it often works within incredibly short deadlines.
"If a real estate opportunity comes up and we see the potential to do a new store, we go for it," she explained, "and things may transpire very, very quickly from there. It's great for us with regard to our growth, but it's also stressful in that it makes everyone work on a very short time line. The signage company we used previously was not good at it."
By contrast, Harbinger has been able to accommodate Edwin Watts' fast track.
"They don't get bogged down with permit issues or the short time frames," Grossman said. "They get as excited as we do when we are opening a new location."
For color consistency in the green and white logo and lettering, Harbinger converted Edwin Watts signs from paint to translucent vinyl films, all applied first surface for both cabinet and channel letter signs. New signs use LEDs, which provide more reliable and consistent illumination and help reduce sign operating costs.
Along with the logo and letters on the exterior of the stores, Harbinger provides Edwin Watts with large-format digital window prints. The prints are created with a 3M medium-adhesive product that allows them to be removed and changed out without leaving any adhesive residue on the windows.
"The prints — we call them window clings — were Harbinger's idea," Grossman said. "They're beautiful and very impactful for our customers."
Grossman explained that Harbinger came up with the idea of the window prints.
"It proved an economical way for us to try something new while meeting budget," she said. "One of the benefits for a very specialized retailer like us in working with Harbinger is that they have a very broad base of experience and of doing different things that they are able to share with us. They bring a lot of great ideas to the table."
In 2010, Edwin Watts entered into an agreement with Sears Holdings to open in-store shops in 12 Sears stores. Ranging from 2,700 sq. ft. to 3,000 sq. ft. in size, the shops offer the familiar layout and shopping experience as the company's freestanding locations. All of the exterior signage is being provided by Harbinger, which is also helping out on some of the interior signing. In conjunction with the in-store Sears shops, the supplier created an interior digital print that can be applied to both treated and untreated drywall substrates. The print can be removed without leaving any adhesive residue.
"It's (Sears) been a big project, and the implementation of the signage has been challenging," Grossman said. "Sears is a huge company with layers of approval, and then there is the standard permitting to deal with. But Harbinger has been very supportive and there for us every step of the way."

Date of Birth: 18 May 1863
Birthplace: Harthill, Scotland
First Division champions 1923
When David Ashworth suddenly and surprisingly left Anfield for Oldham Athletic early in 1923, Liverpool turned to one of their directors as a temporary answer.
The Reds were top of the table and battling to retain the title so it needed to be the right choice if they were to succeed.
Up stepped 60-year-old Matt McQueen, a former Reds player who would not only keep the team on course for back-to-back titles, but would also remain in the hot-seat for the next five years.
Matt and his brother Hugh had been two of the many Scotsmen recruited by John McKenna shortly after Liverpool were founded in 1892 following Everton's decision to move from Anfield to Goodison Park.
Both had played in Liverpool's first-ever Football League match, against Middlesbrough Ironopolis in September, 1893.
When his playing days were over, McQueen took the qualifications necessary to become a Football League referee and officiated as a linesman for a brief period in 1904.
Towards the end of the First World War, he was appointed to become a director on Liverpool's board before eventually taking over team affairs.
However, after the successive championships of 1922 and 1923, the club's fortunes declined somewhat with finishes of 12th, fourth, seventh and ninth.
The 1927-28 campaign would prove to be the last straw for McQueen and he resigned midway through the season with the Reds just about managing to avoid relegation.
He had tragically lost a leg in a road accident in the early 1920s and his health had deteriorated further by the end of the decade.
Before he stood down, McQueen had made one of Liverpool's most significant signings ever, when he brought in South African Gordon Hodgson, a wonderful striker of the ball who would go on score nearly 250 senior goals for the club in less than 400 appearances.

Congressman Tim Ryan has survived a primary challenge from John Luchansky of Youngstown in the Democratic primary election May 6.
According to final, but unofficial results from https://vote.ohio.gov/home.aspx, a website administrated by the Ohio Secretary of State's office, Ryan received 45,159 votes or about 85 percent of votes cast and Luchansky received 7,957 votes or about 15 percent of votes cast.
Ryan, 41, has served in Congress since 2003, first in the 17th District before it was eliminated by redistricting after the 2010 census, and in the 13th District since January 2013.
Ryan said he's seeking re-election to build on his accomplishments during the past 12 years such as the Kent Central Gateway Project, being an advocate for university research and development funds, seeking public investments in infrastructure, boosting manufacturing resurgence and reforming agricultural policies and nutritional education to help people become healthier and keep healthcare costs down.
Ryan will likely face Thomas Pekarek of Cleveland, who was seeking the Republican nomination as a write-in candidate.
According to a Mahoning County Board of Elections official, Pekarek had to garner at least 50 votes to appear on the November ballot, and, according to final, but unofficial results posted at the Ohio Secretary of State's site, he received 278 votes.
"I am grateful that the Democratic voters in Ohio's 13th Congressional District have trusted me to once again represent them and their values in this year's election," Ryan stated in a news release. "It is my great honor and privilege to serve the people of Northeast Ohio in our nation's Capitol and I am proud to have the chance to continue to fight on behalf of the men, women and families in my District. I strongly believe that the future of our nation's economic competitiveness runs through Northeast Ohio. We have made tremendous progress towards building this new economy, whether it is Akron's Austen BioInnovation Institute, Kent's Central Gateway, Warren's Tech Belt Energy Innovation Center or Youngstown's America Makes. But the job is not finished and we have work left to be done."
Luchansky declined to comment but has said he would have pushed to launch a Congressional probe into the shooting of Doug Jones Jr.
"[Jones] was shot to death by a Poland Village police officer on June 6, 1996," stated Luchansky. "The case never went to the grand jury, and I believe that the young man was murdered and that this shooting was covered up, so that's my primary interest in running for Congress."
The 13th District includes Kent, Ravenna, Streetsboro, the Youngstown area and eastern Summit County, including Tallmadge.

Universally beloved by readers, Sophie Kinsellas national bestseller, Confessions of a Shopaholic, introduced the irrepressible one-woman shopping phenomenon, Becky Bloomwood. Now, in this hilarious follow-up, Becky and her credit cards are headed across the Atlantic....
With her shopping excesses (somewhat) in check and her career as a TV financial guru thriving, Beckys biggest problem seems to be tearing her entrepreneur boyfriend, Luke, away from work for a romantic country weekend. And worse, figuring out how to "pack light." But packing takes on a whole new meaning when Luke announces hes moving to New York for business-and he asks Becky to go with him!
Before you can say "Prada sample sale," Becky has landed in the Big Apple, home of Park Avenue penthouses and luxury department stores.
Surely its only a matter of time until she becomes an American TV celebrity, and she and Luke are the toast of Gotham society. Nothing can stand in their way, especially with Beckys bills miles away in London.
But then an unexpected disaster threatens her career prospects, her relationship with Luke, and her available credit line! Shopaholic Takes Manhattan-but will she have to return it?

Well over a year ago I came across an article on Simple Mom entitled, Start Your Day by Eating a Frog. Now I know they are progressive and creative over there but when I saw that title pop up in my RSS Feed I had to wonder what the heck they were talking about. It is true that many people eat frogs and I wondered if perhaps they had found a way to make one taste like the best red velvet cupcake ever. To my pleasant surprise I found out it was a metaphor.
The quote originated with Mark Twain.
"If you eat a frog first thing in the morning that will probably be the worst thing you do all day."
From that quote, you will find tons of articles, post and even a book and video in regards to what that means about procrastination, tackling your to do list and just getting things done. I'll post a few links below but here's my take on it without needing to buy the book and matching mug.
The jest of this quote means, if you do the most difficult thing/task/project/chore first, you know you've gotten it out of the way. Your day can only get better. How many times have you had a task you needed to complete and you kept putting it off? That procrastination began to take over your day. You start to dread each approaching hour because you keep remembering you haven't started that project yet. So you put it off and check your email again. You put off cleaning your apartment and you watch some more tv. You find that its hours later and your most dreaded or hardest task still isn't complete. And if you're anything like me, occasionally you put it off for yet another day.
Now some of you may need motivational speakers or you may need the Eat the Frog book to give you helpful tips on how to stop procrastinating. Save your $20 bucks. Just EAT THE FROG!
Last night when I came home from work I knew I needed to clean my apartment, pack for a trip and nap. I wanted to just nap first. I kept telling myself this was the logical choice since I really needed my rest and once I awoke I'd be really refreshed and would pack and clean with a better attitude. I almost did it. On the way to my bedroom, it hit me. I literally said it outloud to myself, "Sheena, eat the damn frog." Meaning, Sheena clean your apartment, pack your bags and then you can sleep until the taxi comes.
I did it and my evening panned out great. I actually finished a lot quicker than expected and ended up adding five more pages to my visual collage art travel journal.
I'm not prone to procrastinating but occasionally I'll get into a funk and I have to find ways to manage the task I don't want to do. If its a larger project, I break it down into smaller pieces and attack the smaller pieces until I find that the entire thing is complete. Or I delegate my task, leverage others and find creative solutions. But sometimes, I just have to tell myself, "Eat the frog Sheena."
What I like about this approach is that its no nonsense. It's not saying pretend that this dreaded task is wonderful. It's not trying to play tricks on your mind like oh by washing the dishes that you don't want to do you'll find greater creative clarity. NONE OF THAT. There's nothing creative to me about washing dishes. I just don't like to do it. But with "Eat the Frog" its just saying, do it. Just get it out the way. No frills, no games, no tricks just do the thing. In no way are they trying to make me think that this "frog" task is as tasty as "chicken." It's a frog, plain and simple.
Read Simple Mom's approach. (The link is posted at the top of this post) I like her breakdown. Check out the video below. It's pleasant. And then read Charlie's article. I love his style. Then EAT THE FROG. You'll find that the rest of your day is a breeze after that.

I'd prefer not to eat the frog (pack), lol. I like the metaphor, but I like procrastination better. I perform well under pressure (amazingly enough), so I seem to always be putting off things that need to be done. I just can't get excited about playing with laundry and repacking all my stuff.
I love this. In fact I am going to go eat the dishes frog right now!

The look and feel changes are mostly nice, but I have found one minor tweak that irritates me no end - and doesn't make sense to me from an HCI point of view.
If you have opened a drop down menu, and you decide you are happy with the existing selection, it used to be that you could "dismiss" the menu and leave it as it is by clicking anywhere on the screen outside the menu.
Now you need to either click on the selected option to re-select it, or if there happen to be unavailable options in the menu (ie. greyed out) you can click them as well.
Now that sucks from an HCI standpoint in two ways. First, to execute this relatively common action you now need to click in a quite small area instead of simply flicking your wrist and clicking. Secondly it is inconsistent with the menus in the menu bar, where you can click anywhere outside an open menu to dismiss it.
Update: It seems to have been another "glitch" because after a reboot I can no longer replicate it. Little bugs happen - at least it's not a change in the ui thinking.

Lindsay Lohan Blew Off Work? That Can't Be Right
Stop me if you've heard this one before: Despite all common sense and wisdom, Lindsay Lohan is somehow cast in a movie, and in return for their generosity, she thanks the filmmakers by not even bothering to show up for work. A chain of events that apparently happened yesterday on The Canyons, according to Bret Easton Ellis' Twitter:
Patrick Bateman has just headed over to Lindsay Lohan's hotel to confront her as to why she missed her fucking ADR on "The Canyons" today…
For someone as supposedly brilliant as Bret Easton Ellis, you'd assume he'd have seen something like this coming the second her name was even mentioned and saved himself the rush by lighting his script on fire and putting it out with all the money they raised from Kickstarter. Because, honestly, he should be amazed they even have footage to dub at this point, and content himself with the fact they can easily bring in Harvey Fierstein to read all of her lines. I don't know what he's freaking out about.

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
location, kindness and professionalism,excellent food
The staff was very good and efficient and the proprietors present and friendly. The hotel is quiet and it has a lovely view from the rooms headed south (we did not see the others) and from the terrace. The hotel is rather isolated, so you should plan to eat there. The menus offered during the day are somewhat limited. Unfortunately we could not eat ther ein the evening, as the menu looks interesting. Access si only possible with a small but spectacular train. This train is a little pricey if you do not have reductions. With a 50% reduction provided by the hotel it is still CHF 25 p. person.
nature, mountains, fresh air, peacefull envirement, friendly personel extra payment for parking and also for the train which drives to the hotel
The hotel is located in a beautiful village on the lake shore with easy access to water taxis to other locations on the lake We were disappointed that the en suite facilities were not as we had anticipated (ie the shower facility was not a shower but a loose handset without mounting point). On checkout the credit card reader had to be taken outside to obtain a phone signal.
Manager was quite helpful and the breakfast was great! Also, the view of the lake was really nice. Clean and comfortable with all the expected amenities. It is quite dated and the walls are a bit thin. We had an angry neighbor banging violently on the wall as we used the bath at ten in the evening! Not a fault of the hotel so much as the neighbor, but it is something to be aware of. Price was quite high for the room, but this is a fault of the whole of Switzerland, really.
great view, cute building , wonderful breakfast.
I liked the area, hotel very easy to find, good range of restaurants nearby, parking quite easy. Clean/comfortable room.
Service was excellent. Also the restaurant was very good. Bed and pillows
Very comfortable,great location easy to get to by ferry from Lucerne and Lucerne railway station and very relaxing. The only problem was staff communication at breakfast.
Great views. Nice rooms. Staff was extremely nice and helpful since we were tourists!
We liked the location very much. It is very close to the boat station which is convenient for a short stay and makes possible traveling around the lake. Also it is the very center of Weggis with easy access to the restaurants and performance on the stage The things which disappointed us were a poor design and a feeling of slightly abandoned place
The location was beautiful and very relaxing. The restaurant was very good and the hotel was spotless. Family run and the staff were very helpful and accommodating.
Friendliness, older style by the lake. Good food. Nice village. Help with where to go to make the most of the stay. n/a
Excellent location, very scenic, on NW shores of Lake Lucerene. Friendly and helpful staff, stupendous breakfasts. Limited parking.
Top quality management & staff service, excellent restaurant food and service and a very nice bar area with appropriate live music.
The room was excellent. The staff friendly. The views magnificent and the location is great did not like the limited menus at restaurants.
Simply perfect hotel from all angles
the location the staff was unresponsive, distant,unwelcoming. Room size, decor, comfort level and service not in line with a 5 star hotel. Overall poor value for the money as the rate was high. Breakfast was not included with the room as with other 5 star hotels
The magnificent views, and high quality of hotel. Some of the staff didn't always seem they wanted to assist
The food was always excellent and beautifully presented and every member of the staff was courteous, efficient and friendly. No
Our suite-room had an wonderful amazing view. The interior of the room was very nice. The sparks restaurant is very nice too.( food id fine. ) The terrace in summer must be wonderful. Annex restaurant : Food was not that great for the money I expected. Tehnically perfect served, but for our tastea mixture of too many different spices. Servantes were too mannered.
relaxed stay do nothing
A wonderful experience. We have visited the hotel three times in the past and will stay there again
The service was warm and very efficient. The food was first rate. And, of course, the setting was marvelous, very restful. Everything was perfect.
The staff were friendly, the hotel was lovely and quiet and the views, well what can I say, breathtaking. As a female, business traveller, this hotel gave me a warm, comfortable feeling, as did the staff. I will definately return. A rare find. The only downside is the cancellation policy. Business dates often change and I can never give 30 days notice. If this was to be a regular stop for me, it would have to be flexible, to about 24 hrs for changes.
general cleanliness around and friendly staff no
I like it because it,s small and that it is a family business but offers alot -good food and wellness
I stayed at the Hotel Gerbi and thought that the service was slow and the food not up to the price - the breakfast was good, but when we said the the coffee was not hot enough, we were treated very unfriendly afterwards Our glasses of the night before were still in our room at 12.00 the next day.I can not answer the next questions as I have not seen any reviews
The Spa, good restaurant, quiet, exactly what we were looking for
Balcony view of lake was big bonus and the spa is great for when the weather is bad. Pillows were horrid
Apart staff which was very kind all other in this hotel is very, but very far from 4* standard. Coridor was cold and smelly, room was cold, heating in the bathroom was not working, picture on the presentation shows only anex to the hotel (wellness&spa) but not hotel, pictures of the rooms were far, but very far from the our room.
The panoramic view from the room, the friendliness of staff and the superb location No
friendliness of hotel staff, familiar atmosphere If you expect a modern, state-of-the-art building, then you are at the wrong place.
Very friendly atmosphere, very clean and well cared for. Very welcoming and extremely pleasant stay with many additional small touches, eg robes, slippers and leaving gifts. Nothing that we did not like, but we did request some further written details regarding routines, times and services available within the hotel.
Beautifull view from balcony over the lake !
staff,room view
...situation ...hotel could benefit from a make over ,no maintenance done for years. We have been there several times and what a pity - now for the last time. Too much wear and tear and expensive ,as well diner in the hotel.
View from room was excellent and friendliness of staff
We were there during the Christmas season and enjoyed the Christmas market and the small town atmosphere. Excellent St. Nick parade.
position, views, outside dining, secure parking. Had booked for 3 nights and got there to find the third was free. Good food! no
The staff were very helpful with any queries about the area. The view from the balcony was stunning, breakfast was plentiful and the dinner we ate in the restaurant was supberb. There was some kitchen smells in the corridor but once in your room it was fine
Friendly stuff, food was good and the Internet conection worked very well. Furniture dated, very warm in the corridor and you could even smell what was on the menue ...
The hotel had a great location right on the lake and was also handy for the local ski area. Superb views when eating breakfast. Ferry across the lake (summer) 2 mins walk from hotel. The hotel needs some serious investment. Such a prime location should really be offering better facilities. The room which I was allocated was whilst large, had an old push button television, a 70s style radio alarm clock featured in the bed side fittings, the furniture was tired and rooms were accessed via a very old lift system. The staff could have been a little more informative when checking in as there was a 25% reduction available on ski lift passes. Was not told of this until after and nor was I told that the pass could be used at near-by Engelberg.....a much larger ski resort than at Beckenreid.
the hotel is located in a quiet litte village, yet close to main roads. The cuisine is a one would expect; honest food, tasty and no-nonsense. Service is flexible and very friendly. Very clean rooms, spatious and equiped with a nice functional bathroom. Hiking trails in front of the hotel!
Convenience to Rigi facilities, lake transportation, City of Lucerne. Excellent restaurant.central location. Lot of history.
Friendly helpful staff who spoke excellent English and hence made it very easy to check on local information and services. The restaurant food and service was excellent. The single room was is fair condition for a three star hotel, a little extra work on re-decoration would lift the hotel to four star.
Hotel is very good location. We got a mountain train. Station is naer the hotel. 5minutes for walking. We saw an excellent seescape and landscape. We didn't find a lift. We have a room in the 2 floor. So we are hard to move a luggage, go up and down with my baby.
Location was excellent, as was the breakfast and room. Staff were helpful. Ideal location for rail up to the Rigi and for the boat on the lake. Overall an excellent hotel, that we would highly recommend. Nothing, everything was great!
The location and standard of the room There was very little parking
Vitznau is a very beautiful location, at the foot of the Rigi mountain, next to the lake. Hotel Rigi is conveniently close to the Rigi mountain railway. Very friendly staff. Excellent place to relax in the Swiss mountains. The church clock, right next to the Hotel, is rung every 15 minutes from 6am to 10pm.
The hotel is a small scale family hotel with very friendly and helpfull staff.
Rooms are updated, very functional, hotel has a great location, good breakfast Sometimes difficult to find someone at the front desk, but understand it's a small family run hotel and the staff wears many different hats
The beds felt very indulgent
We had an exeellent stay Nothing
Clean new rooms. Quiet.
Beautiful location; stunning views from room; friendly,helpful staff; excellent restaurant N/A
Central position in village We would have preferred a room with a bath rather than a shower.
The location was excellent and the room was very nice It was very hot and there were no fans available.
This was the best hotel in which we've ever stayed ...we felt extraordinarily warmly welcomed, our room was simply fabulous in every way, and the location was unbeatable! Barolo and Syrah, the resident 4-legged friends, made this an especially delightful stay. The food and all services were wonderful. We could have moved in and stayed forever! Not one single thing!
Excellent staff that make you feel very welcomed. Fabulous view of lake and mountain. Well equipped and very spacious junior suite. Ironing service is very useful and affordable. Wifi connection is very poor.
Helpful staff, comfortable room, great view, relatively quiet after restaurant closes. In-room tea kettle leaked water onto the desk.
The rooms are very nice and spacious. Excellent restaurant with very good service on the lake . Very helpful and enthousiastic owners who are very good at recommending places to go. We certainly reccommend this hotel.
I was a little bit disappointed about the cleaness and staff of the hotel. My room is not-good views
Great location, service, food, etc. A very positive experience. Overall, the best hotel on our 2 week trip to Switzerland.
We had a great view. The room was comfortable and the balcony was nice. Not really. As a retired person, I can be crotchety at times, but the hotel staff did a great job and the restaurant staff was outstanding. If we decide on a return trip, we'll definitely staff at this hotel.
The room was small. Good location.
The views
Good views, friendly and helpful staff
The hotel was outstanding. A great value for money paid. Its family oriented and very much appreciated and supportive staff turned our stay in Weggis to an enjoyable experience. I and my wife and our two small children enjoyed the room which was provided to us which had a large balcony with a great view to the lake Lucerne and the superb mountains. Availability of a private parking on the spot was another great advantage. Thank you.
views magnificent, most rooms overlook the lake and mountains across the lake. Rooms very clean, if dated. breakfast buffet not wide variety . I compare this poorly to others similarly rated steep walk to lake. uilding whole bneeds a professional makeover. roller blind in our room incredibly hard to move up and down, but reception not always manned so just lived with it. early checkout time imposed (1030)
The cover bads were too much heavy for the summer season : the result was to have very hot temperature under the cover and very uncomfortable for agood sleeping. We have also to say that no air conditioning was available !!!
Very helpful and friendly manager, nice staff. Superb view on the lake and mountain. Very good mexican restaurant. Good swimming pool! Pleasant and peaceful ambiance. Breakfast quite simple but ok
Large room and a large bathroom with a bath. Excellent views overlooking the lake. Nice restauant.
The location is very good, quite and relaxing. The view is very nice over the lake. Close to the village centre. Excellent place to spend a relaxing weekend.
Good location with pick-up from the harbor, room was clean, food tasty, staff friendly
beautiful location, spacious room, large balcony, nice view. Food was very good, though it was not cheap.
The staff did their best to help and answer any question and with a big smile even when carrying our heay luggage Internet was not availabe at rooms

Hi! This page used to hold a presentation that I gave at SuperHappyDevHouse in July 2011. These are available here.
The slides aren't particularly useful on their own, so I wanted to put up some more useful information for anyone interested. The project is out of the Brown PLT research group (see all our projects at github).
The type system work that I discussed in the talk is built on ongoing and cutting-edge research, most notably
Come visit us at USENIX Security this August in San Francisco, where we'll be presenting the ADsafety work! For further questions, you can contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com.

There was never any doubt that a socialist would win the first round of the French election. This is because, with one partial exception, all 10 candidates favoured socialist policies.
Francois Hollande wanted a top rate tax of 75 per cent and a massive expansion of the state payroll.
And Marine Le Pen ditched her father's anti-scrounger rhetoric and ran on a platform which, on economics, was well to the left of Mr Sarkozy's.
Of the other seven candidates, one positioned himself between Mr Sarkozy and Mr Hollande, one fought as a Green and no fewer than four stood as Trotskyists. The only candidate who would have been considered right of centre in another country was the Gaullist Nicolas Dupont-Aignan, who secured less than 2 per cent of the vote – and even he freighted his rhetoric with a good deal of protectionism and anti-Americanism.
There will be much comment in the press about a lurch to the Left, jittery markets, the threat to the Fiscal Union Treaty and the threat to the euro, but I don't expect to see much change.
"Hollande is to the left of Sarkozy's rhetoric, but he is not to the left of Sarkozy's record," says a French friend, one of the few genuine libertarians in that country. Like many French free-marketeers, she has cast what the French call a "vote blanc" – in effect, a spoiled ballot paper.
Just as they agree on protectionism and dirigisme at home, so Mr Sarkozy and Mr Hollande favour it in Brussels.
Don't be fooled by the sham fight about the FU Treaty. Whoever wins this election, France will remain wedded to a powerful and profligate European Union.
Both men want a big bailout fund, pan-European taxation and a crackdown on "the markets".
Merkozy might morph into Mellande; from a British perspective, it will make little difference.
To explain what has just happened, we need to use two French words, neither of which translates exactly into English.
The first is "insécurité", which, in a political context, means a generalised angst about immigration, crime and the loss of social benefits.
People are never so tetchy as when they are inwardly nervous, and the French electorate now has a great deal to be nervous about.
The second is "immobilisme", a word which originally meant the failure of governments in the Third and Fourth Republics to change anything.
In those days, immobilisme was supposed to be a product of the electoral system.
Now it reflects the mood of the nation.
Most French electors are, in a sense, casting votes blancs. Few are voting in the expectation of a better tomorrow.
The chief appeal during the second round will be "Vote to stop X" rather than "Vote for Y!"
The ballots cast will be preventative ballots, pessimistic ballots, grumpy ballots, ballots cast with a disdainful Gallic shrug and a scornful exhalation: C'est égal – It's all the same.

How to execute a notebook from another notebook?
Perhaps, it is a stupid question, but somehow, I was not able to find any
help on the following:
I have a notebook, which does some calculations and saves results onto disk.
All I need is to execute this notebook somewhere within another notebook.
Sometimes it is nice to keep some parts of the code separated in different
notebook files, which depending on the circumstances could be run manually
via FrontEnd or within an automated loop from a notebook.
To a certain extent this philosophy resembles, for example, what they have
for scripts in another system.
Please, reply directly to akolzine at uiuc.edu

People can fake bad (aka faking bad) in neuropsychological testing where they feel it will serve their interests. The opposite is known as fake good.
So for example in psychometric assessment regarding legal claims for compensation for injury people may be tempted to skew their answers in a way they feel will show how badly they have been brain damaged, for example. To try to monitor for this tendency some symptom validity testing should be included in the test battery.
This may be seen as an aspect of malingering.

Latest Trailer For The Desolation Of Smaug
And a new production diary goes online
With the release of the film itself now just over a month away, the promotional campaign for The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug has hit frenzy mode. We've just had a batch of new posters released for the film, and now here comes the latest trailer, full of fresh moments.
This new look at the film certainly keeps up both the atmospheric spookiness of Smaug's lair, the spider dwellings and the other dark corners of Middle-earth we continue to explore. Also featured? Lots of chances for Legolas (Orlando Bloom) and new character Tauriel (Evangeline Lily) to shine, plus Richard Armitage getting plenty of hero moments as Thorin. For those of you who want more of Luke Evans and his native Welsh accent as Bard, he's here too.
The trailer, along with a new production diary that focuses on the last sprint of filming to grab remaining "pick-up" shots (and features Ian McKellen swearing!), premiered as part of a big Hobbit fan event that was held simultaneously in cities such as London, Los Angeles, New York, Mexico City and Wellington, New Zealand.
You can see the truncated version of the live broadcast below (skip to 21 minutes in to see the blog), which stops just before audiences at the physical events got to see around 20 minutes of footage. Empire was present at the London location and will have a full report up as soon as it's written.
The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug is out on December 13. For much more on the film, including our exclusive set visit and four different covers, check out the current issue of Empire, available in shops and in various digital formats now.

Boulder, Colo. (UPI) Jan 7, 2013
Atmospheric scientists say they're on their way to the western tropical Pacific Ocean to study the region's "global chimney" effect on the world's climate.
With the warmest ocean waters on Earth, the western tropical Pacific fuels a sort of chimney whose output has global reach, lofting vast quantities of air from the lower atmosphere to the stratosphere and influencing atmospheric chemistry over wide areas.
"To figure out the future of the air above our heads, we need to go to the western Pacific," project investigator Laura Pan with the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colo., said.
"This region has been called the holy grail for understanding global air transport, because so much surface air gets lifted by the storms and then spreads globally."
More than 40 scientists from NCAR, the University of Maryland, the University of Miami, other universities across the country and NASA are taking part in the project, dubbed CONTRAST or Convective Transport of Active Species in the Tropics, an NCAR release said Tuesday.
Based in Guam, where surrounding waters have the world's highest sea surface temperatures of open oceans, the project featuring heavily-instrumented aircraft will give researchers an especially detailed view of the air masses over the Pacific with a vertical range spanning tens of thousands of feet.
"There are so few measurements of atmospheric composition in this important region of the atmosphere that we expect to be able to significantly advance our understanding with the data we will be able to collect during CONTRAST," Elliot Atlas of the University of Miami, a project principal investigator, said.

text: Artisan Partners Asset Management Inc. (NYSE: APAM) (the "Company" or "Artisan Partners") today reported its results for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, and net income and earnings per share for the period from March 12, 2013 (the closing date of its initial public offering) through June 30, 2013. "Since the founding of our firm, our approach to the management of our business has consistently centered on our investment talent, strong long-term investment results, asset diversification and financial discipline. We believe that if we remain focused on those primary guideposts over long periods positive results should follow," Eric Colson, President and CEO, noted. Business Update Mr. Colson went on to say, "As of June 30, 2013, 10 of our 12 investment strategies (excluding our 13 th strategy which we launched late in the quarter) added value relative to their broad performance benchmarks over the trailing 5-year and 10-year periods and since each strategy's inception. In addition, more than 90% of our assets under management were in strategies outperforming the respective benchmarks over the trailing 3, 5, and 10-year periods and since each strategy's inception. "Our business development efforts continued to be well diversified by investment team, strategy and distribution channel. A highlight of the second quarter was the continued success of our global distribution efforts. Artisan Partners Global Funds, our family of five UCITS funds, which we launched at the end of 2010, grew past the $1 billion mark. We think this reflects very solid early interest in our business model and investment capabilities by investors outside the U.S. In particular, we are optimistic about our growth potential in the EMEA region. "From a financial standpoint, our primary metrics remained in line with our long-term expectations for our business. In a traditionally slow quarter for market flows, we were pleased with our organic growth. We have continued to generate strong cash flows and recently declared our first dividend. Our highly variable cost structure has continued to support our above average operating margin. As previously stated, we plan to distribute the majority of our annual earnings to our shareholders through the combination of a consistent quarterly dividend and a special annual dividend.

Sidehill Gougers are North American folkloric creatures adapted to living on hillsides by having legs on one side of their body shorter than the legs on the opposite side. This peculiarity allows them to walk on steep hillsides, although only in one direction; when lured or chased into the plain, they are trapped in an endless circular path. The creature is variously known as the Sidehill Ousel, Guyascutus, Sidewinder, Wampus, Godaphro, Hunkus, Rickaboo Racker, Prock, Gwinter, or Cutter Cuss.
Sidehill gougers are herbivorous mammals who dwell in hillside burrows, and are occasionally depicted as laying eggs. There are usually 6 to 8 pups to a litter. Since the gouger is footed for hillsides, it cannot stand up on level ground. If by accident a gouger falls from a hill, it can easily be captured or starve to death. When a clockwise gouger meets a counter-clockwise gouger, they have to fight to the death since they can only go in one direction.
Gougers are said to have migrated to the west from New England, a feat accomplished by a pair of gougers who clung to each other in a fashion comparable to "a pair of drunks going home from town" with their longer legs on the outer sides. A Vermont variation is known as the Wampahoofus. It was reported that farmers crossbreed them with their cows so they could graze easily on mountain sides. There is also a similar mythical creature in France known as the Dahu.
Frank C. Whitmore and Nicholas Hotton, in their joint tongue-in-cheek response to an article "Fantastic Animals" (Smithsonian Magazine, 1972), expounded the taxonomy of sidehill gougers (Membriinequales declivitous), noting in particular "the sidehill dodger, which inhabits the Driftless Area of Wisconsin; the dextrosinistral limb ratio approaches unity although the metapodials on the downhill side are noticeably stouter."

Just last week, he and a few of his Avenger pals posted a PSA to launch his new organization Save the Day, urging Americans to make sure they're registered to vote. On Friday, Whedon also hosted a Facebook Live chat to promote Save the Day, in which he answered some fan questions, including which of the Avengers he'd pick to run the country.

• Wakame Inhibits Cholesterol Metabolism - Japanese researchers reported that wakame suppressed the reabsorption of cholesterol in the liver and intestine in laboratory experiments. Other studies showed that hijiki, another sea vegetable, and shiitake mushroom also lowered serum cholesterol and improved fat metabolism.
• Margaret Mead on Diet and Violence - In a symposium on the anthropology of armed conflict and aggression, anthropologist Margaret Mead suggested that social measures necessary for the prevention of modern warfare might include "radical changes in diet." "It might be that the production of a social environment in which there were no living creatures used as food
• Diet and the Napoleonic Wars -
In a book on diet and peace, two holistic educators offer a case history of Napoleon's life and career, including the Continental System (the French attempt to monopolize the trade of sugar and other foodstuffs that precipitated the War of 1812), the retreat from Moscow, and Tolstoy's portrait of Napoleon in War and Peace.
• Diet, Environment, and the History of War - In A Study of War, the principal survey of the origin and cause of conflict, Quincy Wright, an authority in the field of international law and adviser to the U.S. War Department and the Nuremberg Tribunal, concluded that war—especially civilized war in which the taking of human life is a primary objective—is unnatural and that "the trend of evolution has been toward symbiotic relations and perhaps toward vegetarian diet."
• Heart Disease and Cancer Decline During World War I - During World War I, Mikkel Hindhede, M.D., Superintendent of the State Institute of Food Research, persuaded the Danish government to shift its agricultural priorities from raising grain for livestock to producing grain for direct human consumption. Accordingly, in the face of a foreign blockade, the Danes ate primarily barley, whole-rye bread, green vegetables, potatoes, milk, and some butter. In the nation's capital, the death rate from all causes, including cancer, fell 34 percent during 1917 to 1918. "It was a low protein experiment on a large scale, about 3 million subjects being available," Hindhede reported to his medical colleagues. " . . . People entered no complaints; there were no digestive troubles, but we are accustomed to the use of whole bread and we knew how to make such bread of good quality."
• Chronic Diseases Fall During World War II - During World War II, rates of cancer, heart disease, and other degenerative illnesses declined as a result of wartime restrictions on articles in the modern diet. For example, in England and Wales, breast cancer mortality markedly fell as consumption of sugar, meat, and fat declined and consumption of grains and vegetables increased. By 1954, fat consumption returned to prewar levels, and breast cancer levels subsequently climbed to previous levels.
• Vietnamese Diet - In April 1965, Professors Suzuki and Sakaida from Japan were captured by Vietnamese revolutionaries. At first they thought they would become malnourished or ill on their meager diet, but as their captivity continued they discovered just the opposite. "The Vietcong fed us rice and a soup made from wild cassava leaves, every day, three times a day . . . At first we were very worried about such a meager diet. But to our astonishment, none of us ever got ill or tired, despite having to walk 20 or 30 miles a day through thick virgin jungle. . . It's very odd, but we never got sick with that freshly hulled rice! No sign of malaria either!"
• American POWs in Vietnam in Superior Health - In 1977 a study of 78 former U.S. Navy prisoners of war in Vietnam showed that they had less endocrine, nutritional, and metabolic diseases, as well as less circulatory, nervous system, genito-urinary, and musculoskeletal diseases, than other Navy pilots. The researchers cited the Vietnamese diet—high in rice and vegetables and low in dietary cholesterol and fat—as a major factor in their better physical health. "In contrast to the life of the POWs during confinement, control group members usually had access to an abundant diet—high in animal fat—to tobacco, to alcohol, and experienced the stresses of their jobs where only excellent performance was rewarded by promotions."
• Animal Waste Biggest Water Polluter - Modern agriculture is the biggest polluter of rivers and streams, contaminating more than 173,000 miles of waterways in the U.S. with chemicals, animal waste runoff, and eroded soils, the Environmental Protection Agency announced. The principal polluter is large livestock feeding operations, which confine thousands of animals to small spaces and produce huge amounts of manure. Giant cattle, hog, chicken, and turkey farms have doubled or tripled in size in recent years and current federal rules are not adequate to deal with the situation, EPA officials stated.
• World Water Shortage - Nearly half a billion people face shortages of fresh water. According to researchers at Johns Hopkins University, by 2025 that number will soar to 2.8 billion people, or one in every three people on the planet. Today 31 countries, mostly in Africa and the Middle East, are facing water scarcity or stress. By 2025, another 17 countries will face shortages, including India and possibly China. In the U.S., ground water is being used at a rate 25 percent higher than it is being replenished. Meanwhile, over 20 percent of all freshwater fish species are endangered, vulnerable, or recently become extinct.
• Chlorination Causes Cancer - In a study on drinking water sources among a cohort of 28,237 women in Iowa, epidemiologists at the University of Minnesota reported that in comparison with women who used municipal ground-water sources, women with chlorinated municipal surface water sources were at an increased risk of cancer. "A clear dose-response relation was observed between four categories of increasing chloroform levels in finished drinking water and the risk of colon cancer and all cancers combined," the scientists concluded.
• High-Fiber Diet Reduces Risk of Chlorinated Water - In a study on colon and rectal cancer, scientists at the National Cancer Institute reported that persons with high-fiber intake exposed to chlorinated water and its byproducts for many decades were two-and-a-half times less likely to contract these disorders than individuals with low-fiber intake.
• Treated Water Linked to Higher Cancer Rates in Taiwan - Chlorination is used widely in Taiwan to disinfect drinking water. Researchers at Kaohsiung Medical College in Taiwan investigated the effects of chlorination and found that municipalities in which 90 percent of the population was exposed to treated water had higher rates of cancer of the rectum, lung, bladder, and kidney than communities in which less than 5 percent of the population was exposed.
• Nitrate in Water Linked to Lymphoma - Nitrate, a contaminant of drinking water, especially in rural wells, is associated with increased risk of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. In a case-control study in Nebraska, scientists at the national Cancer Institute reported that long-term exposure to elevated nitrate levels in drinking water may contribute to the risk of this disease.
• Fluoridation Linked to Increased Hip Fractures - Drinking fluoridated water may increase the risk of hip fractures in older people. In a Utah study, women living in Brigham City which has added fluoride to its water supply since 1966 were 30 percent more likely to suffer hip fractures than those living in two other communities that did not fluoridate their water.
• Home Remedies - In his book on home remedies, educator Michio Kushi explains how to use watercress and other green leafy vegetables to make a Leafy Greens Juice to help detoxify the liver and a Chlorophyll Plaster to help reduce inflammation and relieve burns and bruises.
• Watercress Protects Against Lung Cancer - Watercress contains phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC), a substance that protects against lung cancer. In a study of 11 smokers, researchers at the American Health Foundation in Valhalla, N.Y. reported that consumption of 2 ounces of watercress at each meal for 3 days resulted in an increase elimination of a product of NNK, a tobacco-specific lung carcinogen, in the urine.
• Watercress Eliminates Tylenol Like Drugs from the Blood - In a study of the effect of watercress on the metabolism of acetaminophen, a family of analgesic drugs (including the brand name Tylenol), researchers at the Laboratory for Cancer Research at Rutgers University reported that the ingestion of watercress in human volunteers resulted in a reduction of cysteine acetaminopen in the blood by up to 55 percent. The drugs, administered to treat mild or moderate pain, including headache, toothache, and rheumatism, may cause digestive upsets, and overdosage can cause liver damage.
• A Natural Approach - In his book on obesity and weight loss, educator Michio Kushi explains the development of obesity, the origin of hunger, and natural approaches to losing and gaining weight.
• Refined Flour Contributes to Short Life- In the early 19th century, in feeding trials with animals, M. Magendie, a French scientist, found that refined flour was unable to support life. "A dog fed on fine white bread and water, both at discretion, does not live beyond the fiftieth day. . . . A dog fed on the coarse [barley] bread of the military, lives and keeps his health."
• Whole Wheat Superior to White Flour in Metabolic Effects - In laboratory experiments, researchers in Australia reported that rats fed whole wheat flour had lower cholesterol concentrations than those fed white flour. They also had improved excretions of steroids and less acidity than animals fed the refined diet. The experimenters concluded that different kinds of flour produced different metabolic effects and "may have similar actions in other species including humans."
• Superiority of Whole Grains to Refined Grains - In a study of the mechanisms by which whole grains protect against chronic disease, researchers at the University of Minnesota identified several components: 1) compounds that affect the gut environment, including dietary fiber, resistant starch, and other indigestible compounds; 2) compounds that function as antioxidants such as trace minerals and phenolic compounds, 3) compounds that are phytoestrogens with potential hormonal effects, and 4) mechanistic effects such as binding of carcinogens and modulation of glycemic index.
• Whole Grains Protective Against Various Cancers - In a review of 54 case-control studies spanning 20 types of cancer and colon polyps, researchers at the University of Minnesota reported that people with high intakes of whole grain had 20 to 50 percent less risk of most malignancies, including colorectal cancer and polyps, gastric and other digestive tract cancers, hormone-related cancers, and pancreatic cancer. There was a slightly less protective risk for breast and prostate cancers. "The case-control evidence is supportive of the hypothesis that whole-grain intake protects against various cancers," the researchers stated.
• Whole Grains Reduce Risk of Cancers - In a review of case-control studies in Italy between 1983 and 1996 involving 15,000 people, researchers reported that high intake of whole grain foods consistently reduced risk of cancers of the oral cavity and pharynx, esophagus, stomach, colon, rectum, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, larynx, breast, endometrium, ovary, prostate, bladder, kidney, lymphatic system, and multiple myelomas. Reduced risk ranged from 10 to 80 percent depending on the site. The only site in which an inverse relation was found was the thyroid.
• Whole Grains Protect Against Heart Disease - In a study of 34,492 postmenopausal women aged 55 to 69, University of Minnesota researchers reported that those who consumed the highest amount of whole grains were 30 to 50 percent less likely to develop coronary heart disease. The scientists said the protective effect of whole grains was independent of its fiber content or several other constituents.
• Whole Grains, High in Vitamin E, Protect Against Colon Cancer - In a large prospective cohort study of 35,215 Iowa nurses, researchers found that women who consumed foods high in Vitamin E or took supplements high in this nutrient developed significantly less colon cancer. Vitamin E is high in whole grains, seeds and nuts, and other vegetable-quality foods.
• Whole Grains Protect Against Colon Cancer - Men in Finland consume a lot of fat and have the highest heart disease rate in the industrialized world. Yet they have one of the lowest colon cancer rates (one-third that of the U.S.). Researchers around the world have found that whole cereal grains protect against colon cancer by reducing bile acid concentrates in the large intestine and giving bulk to the feces. Investigators found that Finnish men consume high amounts of whole rye bread and had bowel movements three times bulkier than men in other Western countries as well as reduced amounts of bile acid buildup.
• Whole Grains Reduce Colorectal Cancer Risk by 40% - Eating more whole grains, vegetables, and fruit may lower a person's risk for colorectal cancer by up to 40 percent. Researchers at the Fox Chase Cancer Center in Philadelphia looked at 37 studies involving 10,000 people in 15 countries and reported that those who ate a diet high in whole grains and other plant-quality foods had about 40 percent less risk of this disease.
• Grain-Based Diet Beneficial for Coronary Heart Disease - Although Americans are consuming less fat than previously, women on an average still consume 36 percent of their daily calories from fat, more than twice the recommended amount. Women who eat grains and vegetables and fish instead of land animals for protein have healthier hearts. Women who eat vegetables and fruits high in beta-carotene, vitamin C, and other antioxidants can reduce their risk of heart attack by one-third. Dietary changes can also reduce obesity, which is associated with a threefold increase in coronary risk.
• High-Fiber Diet Replaces Drugs for Diabetes - In tests of a high-fiber complex carbohydrates diet on 13 diabetic men, aged 30 to 35, five of the men taking oral hypoglycemics were able to discontinue them, four more were able to stop their insulin therapies, and all the others showed some reduction in blood glucose and cholesterol levels. "Every patient that we have treated with the HCF diet has gained some improvement in his or her diabetes. . . we have been able to discontinue insulin therapy in 18 out of 20 patients taking less than 25 units per day . . . [the HCF diets] lower insulin needs by an average of 25 percent," according to James Anderson, a professor of medicine and clinical nutrition who directs a diabetes program at the Veterans Administration Hospital in Lexington, Kentucky.
• Whole Grains May Offset Diverticulosis - Diverticulosis can be prevented and relieved with a high fiber diet. In a study of 62 diverticulosis patients put on a high-fiber diet, 85 percent experienced complete disappearance of their symptoms.
• Whole Grain Diet Reverses Leukemia - In 1972 a Japanese scientist reported that leukemia in chickens could be reversed by feeding them a mixture of whole grains and salt. The experiment was conducted by Keiichi Morishita, M.D., technical chief for the Tokyo Red Cross Blood Center and vice president of the New Blood Association.
• Whole Grains Reduce Risk of Lymphoma - In a study of diet and lymphatic cancer, Italian scientists reported that in a case-control study involving over 1600 people, whole grain consumption reduced the risk of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma by 60 percent and soft tissue sarcomas by 80 percent. A high consumption of green vegetables was also protective.
• Whole Grains Reduce Cancer Risk - In a review of 14 case-control studies of colorectal, gastric, and endometrial cancers, researchers found that high consumptions of whole grains consistently lowered risk. "The case-control evidence is supportive of the hypothesis that whole-grain intake protects against various cancers."
• WHO Dietary Guidelines - In 1991, a panel of United Nations nutritional experts issued a report, Diet, Nutrition, and the Prevention of Chronic Diseases, commissioned by the World Health Organization, calling for developing countries to avoid the modern way of eating as the best way to prevent cancer, heart disease, and other degenerative diseases. The Executive Summary noted:
• Grain Fed to Animals Underlying Cause of World Hunger - In 1971, Frances Moore Lappé compiled information showing that there was enough food to end world hunger but from 50 to 90 percent of the world's grain was fed to livestock rather than people. To get one pound of beef, it takes 18 pounds of grain and soybeans; pork, six pounds; turkey, four pounds; eggs, three pounds; chicken, three pounds. Meanwhile, pounds of usable protein per acre were tabulated as follows: 356 pounds from soybeans; 260 pounds from rice; 211 pounds from corn; 192 pounds from other legumes; 138 pounds from wheat; 82 pounds from milk; 75 pounds from eggs; 45 pounds from meat of all kinds; and 20 pounds from beef.

We offer a nice collection of Islamic swimwear ideal
for women who wish to adhere to Islamic law regarding
the covering of the body. The swimsuits for women which
we offer covers the entire body and is a classic full
sleeve waterproof top with a attached hood to cover the
hair. The item comes in a range of colours with
contrasting baseball style sleeve design with a very
stretchable fabrication to give a nice aerodynamic body
fitted outfit making the whole swimming experience very
enjoyable and comfortable.
Muslim women have always felt this reluctance and uncomfortable feeling when swimming even in a complete women swimming pool due to the Islamic law regarding female hijab or veiling
Under Islamic law a women is expected to cover her body as a sign of her modesty in public. This has always been the main reason for many women not learning how to swim. Now with the availability of Islamic swimsuits which cover the entire body except the face. The attached hood also allow the hijab of the head which is another important part of Islamic law.
The availability of Islamic swimsuits has enabled many mothers to feel comfortable sending their children to swimming pools as part of theirs sports curriculum
The original idea of a all purpose swimwear for conservative Muslim women has sold under the brands of Burkini and Veilkini. As the name suggest that burqa
(which is the Arabic term for veil) and bikini which is
commonly worn in the western world in swimming pools or
in beaches.
The idea of a bikini for Muslim women made it an instant
hit in the Islamic countries. France has once again got
the spotlight in the media after banning the Burkini Due
to medical hygiene concerns. It's medically known that
wet bathing suits have a tendency to attract bacterial and fungal growth faster than norm. It's always a best practice to change quickly from a wet suit and not to share suits since in women it's know to create virginal infections.
Besides the smaller brands having their own version of a full cover swimming clothing only one international brand has added it to their swim wear range namely
Speedo. Their does not have a hood to cover the hair has meant that it was not popular amongst Muslim women.
Islamic law to maintain modesty is not only for women but men are also expected to
adhere to the religious code. Men are expected to cover from their navel button to the knees under
Sharia law. Men typically find alternative by wearing a long Bermuda style shorts with a t shirt which is not a proper solution for someone who wants to learn swimming in a professional manner. Wearing just the typical swim pants and have the body uncovered is not Islamic. To have the top and bottom up to and below the knees in a one single piece is the best solution though a product like this
cease to exit in the market.
This original brand product designed by the Lebanese Australian Aheda Zanetti under the company name Ahiida.
They have been the pioneer of the modern swim wear for
The fabric of the traditional wetsuit being made of rubber these Islamic swimwear are made from a looser
polyimide fabric with a water
repellent finish making it an ideal swim wear garment. The makers of Burkini had always disputed about the use of Lycra which was the commons practice for its rival mycozzie brand that the use of Lycra was not safe.
The popularity of these full covered swim wear have been
equally popular amongst Orthodox Christians. There has also been much publicity when Nigella Lawson who was seen wearing the Burkini setting a new trend.
The biggest limitations of Burkini and it's like-to-like products are that they have no pockets attached. It's a good products to have initially solving a problem for Muslim women who wanted to swim or relax on the beach at the same time keep their modesty but the product needs to be reinvented. The problem of not having pockets which are completely water proof for mobile phones or money etc always prevents the beach goer of safely of
their belongings. This is especially true when it comes to
water parks goers where many come to contact with a Burkini. In many of these
water parks there are no convenient locker system to keep money safe with oneself. So a possible improvement to all these ladies swim wear would be to attach pockets which are completely water tight for personal belongings.
A Muslim women surfer was something unthinkable few years back but now surfer suits tailored for women is now a reality with the help of Artist Kate Sikorski fund raising campaign.
At time customers require bulk for orders for these swimsuits especially in kids sizes for Islamic schools well we offer some great rates for wholesale bulk orders.

L.A. County DA Reviewing Indicted Deputy Cases
The Los Angeles District Attorney's Office said this week it had begun to review a range of criminal prosecutions connected to the 18 current and former Sheriff's deputies, sergeants, and lieutenants indicted on federal corruption charges.
"We have begun to check if there are any cases," said D.A. spokeswoman Jane Robison, but declined to provide any additional detail.
Those indicted on allegations they lied in police reports and covered-up excessive force incidents include Sheriff's investigators whose sworn statements may formed the basis of many other criminal cases outside the scope of the federal investigation.
The District Attorney's Office may have a legal obligation to contact defendants in these other cases if there are indications the indicted deputies committed other acts of – yet undiscovered – misconduct.
The number of cases that could be in jeopardy is unclear because the District Attorney's Office no longer allows reporters to query an internal database that tracks cases based on the name of law enforcement officers involved in the prosecution.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department is prohibited from reviewing any other possible misconduct involving the indicted deputies until the federal criminal case is completed, according to Sheriff Lee Baca's spokesman Steve Whitmore.
He said Monday such an investigation by internal affairs had to be delayed because the deputies could not be compelled to make statements that might violate their 5th amendment Constitutional rights in criminal court.
Other police departments, like the Los Angeles Police Department, have traditionally used two independent teams of investigators to examine major misconduct cases to protect the officers' rights while not running the risk of allowing potential criminal cases to fall out of the statute of limitations before they're investigated.
Baca skipped an appearance Tuesday at the Board of Supervisors meeting at which he was expected to be questioned about the indictments and a Los Angeles Times report that revealed the Sheriff's Department had hired dozens of deputies with troubled backgrounds and criminal records.
