Honestly, I LOVE Giovanna!
So mixing silver and gold jewelry is not a problem? Or it only works on the perfect Giovanna?
To wake up every morning and be this tall, this glam and this skinny must be a wonderful feeling.
gosh, I love the shoes… and the way the outfit makes her look so slim…Im too chicken to carry off slim high waisted pants…!!!
Feeling strongly for grey,so naturally both women are to my liking!
i like the first outfit, it's gorgeous
must be skinny to carry such a coat though
btw, she looks pretty
aww what a lovely smile she has! <3
shades of plain grey can be so beautiful!
Can you please post a picture of this woman where she looks bad? It's simply unfair that she never seems to have a bad fashion day!
wonderfull jersey!
Lovely- gray is the perfect color to use as a base. You accessorize it and make it look different every time.
Fan of Giovana's Style!!
The second pic: An Italien Audrey Hepburn :-)
Grey is elegant. The second image is perfect. Simple with fabulous accessories. She looks fantastic as always.
What a great jumper-cardigan ! This is the one we girls are looking for so long…actually, it looks so comfy you'd wanna live in it !!!
The woman in the second photo looked "geyt" in grey the last time, in her D&G dress, I believe. She looks great again here. My only hesitation is that I don't see the brown snakeskin in the shoes relating directly to anything else, but they do provide a contrast to the simplicity of the other individual pieces. The little bag is perfect, the pants are beautiful and I like the man's watch.
2nd photo, nice style. interesting trousers. What is that necklace sign, tho?
Giovanna looks stunning as always. The smile in the first picture makes the outfit even more fashionable.
Thank you Sart…for photographing the beautiful ladies and the handsome Italian boys
see people, cropped pants look so much better on women then men!
perfect giovanna!
(also the other 2, but specially her). she's just so elegant.
Big Thick sweaters are the best!
Both beautiful. The first sweater has a Poiret feel to it. Love the trousers and monochrome look in the second. Grey with gold (I think her pendant is gold?) is a nice, less-expected choice.
The first jacket is a little bit big for my taste.
Giovanna is a real style icon. a great inspiration.
I think she was born with style. She is always up to the latest fashion, but always very simple and natural and elegant. For me, this is what fashion is all about.
Those pants are sublime… but it's Giovanna, i don't think they could look as good on anyone else. So glad you captured them on film.
Wow. That big knit coat is fantastic. She looks so chic in it, but i fear I would merely appear frumpy :-(
Giovanna can do no wrong!
And I love the chunky oversized cardigan on the top woman. Grey is so beautiful!
Love both looks in both photos. The sweater and the expression on the girl complement one another beautifully!
Giovanna cannot, cannot look bad in anything, it's rediculous. She just makes it look so easy and effortless. That is true style.
My God, that bottom woman is as perfect as it gets. Such a beauty. And love the clothes.
Giovanna in wonderful!
Can someone tell me who this spectacular Giovanna is? Everyone seems to know her. Is she in the fashion industry? She looks stunning. Love everything she's wearing……
Thank you God! A Giovanna fix.
She is brilliant as always….. and nice Blackberry too!
The second woman reminds me of Audrey Hepburn. I have a necklace similar to the one she's wearing.
the second outfit with the skinny trousers, awesome belt and necklace is very lovely. However, the first outfit looks like she just rolled out of bed…it is a very bland and lazy look.
Giovanna looks gorgeously flawless, just stunning! And LOVE the first girls cardigan/coat!
Who is the woman in the second picture? She always looks fantastic…
The pants are amazing!!!
Oh my God… the second pic is wonderful. Such a good look – so elegant. I want it now!!
the top girl is waaay too cute.
the bottom one is…sexy!!
nice, the second woman is stunning like a gazelle
Giovanna, Carine, Anna, Franca… toutes mes divas de la mode! je vous aime toutes!
Giovanna, beautiful as always
its not fair to the other girl to put giovanna in the same post with her, giovanna just trumps most (not that it's a competition.)
she looks absolutely polished and chic, but also completely effortlessness. and the teeny tiny kelly is so good here.
gees…. love the cardigan…
This looks a little 'too long,' but otherwise, it's quite nice.
Well… the medallion….. A gift from Mr. T?
This is interesting, though. Looks like a lot of care was put into this, but the hair is so unfussy. Maybe that's what keeps it grounded and semi-sensible.
The woman in the first photo has such a beautiful smile… reminds me a little of the woman from Stockholm. I don't think I could pull off the chunky knit, though.
Ah Giovanna! She just can't put a foot wrong when it comes to style. She looks good in just about everything she wears……. then again with that figure I guess you could MAKE anything look good :-)
So jealous.
Love the sleeves on that sweater!
second is fabulous. lovely pants. i want them. gorgeous with the belt and turtleneck and big chain necklace and watch and shoes and hair and clutch. ugh i love it all. so chic.
I don't like that big sweater at all. Everything about it is too big: the sleeves, the width, ugh. Her *smile* saves that picture though :)
And oh how I love the second shot. The beautifully tailored pants. The ankle-height hem, and the perfect shoes. The oversize pendant. Elegant perfection.
It's funny… I love all of it except the little bag and the shoes. The shoes seem too *obvious* for lack of a better description. I think I'd like an interesting flat (she's long and thing enough to carry it off a la Audrey Hepburn) or something a little chunkier with a closed toe. As for gold and silver… I'm sure sure I care, but then I'll drink white wine with beef :)
I miss the shoes of the woman in the first picture, that would make teh picture perfect..
Ouch! Those waist height almost capri pants are not flattering. The tapered lower leg makes even the slimmest thighs look big by comparison. The whole look is just a bit too self-conscious. Everyone in the other photo looks stylish and relaxed – they've forgotten all about what they're wearing.
Was this picture taken along Via Manzoni?
Anyway, Giovanna always looks great. She can pull off anything.
First photo: People in the background interest me, maybe more than the girl & what she's wearing. But I love her smile. Second photo…Simply gorgeous!
Beautiful knitwear. Beautiful smile. I think I'm in love…
Gorgeous, Gorgeous, beautiful!
Now that ladies is what i called FIERCENESSSS!! Her body form is popping.
where I can find that cardigan in first pic??? I love it!
how cute! =D
Am I really the only one who does not like the second look?
The high pant and long necklace make her torso look about 2 inches long, the turtleneck gives her a bobble head, and the over all thing is just so PTA mom from the 90s done expensive. Awful.
The bulky cardigan I love. she looks so comfy and stylish. The lady with the high waist paint….chic! Love her whole
giovanna is perfection : )
For those asking, Giovanna Battaglia is a fashion editor with L'Uomo Vogue, does some style consulting, and is a former model for D&G.
I'm more interested in the comment about mixing gold and silver. Hmmm….. I've never thought twice about it although from time to time I've heard someone, usually someone older (at least 60) or from the midwest or maybe from Orange County or Queens, mention it as a no-no. Kind of like making sure your bag and shoes or lipstick and nail polish "match".
If you really want to mix metals but are afraid you're committing a fashion faux pas, why not buy a piece that has both silver and gold. Then you'll have created a loop hole and you can go accessory wild!
The great thing about style is that there are no hard/fast rules that apply to everyone all of the time.
those slacks are unreal.
The grey ensemble is so chic. Love it!
Gorgeous knit in the first photo. I love to wear gray, it matches my hair!
To the person that said it must be nice to be this tall, skinny yada yada. Granted her body is great but it's actually the power of a great cut and fit of trouser. These pants rock because there high waisted which elongates any body, 2nd there straight stovepipe leg shows off the ankle which when worn with a highheel further lengthens the body giving a super slender appearance. This look is professional work appropriate without the boring wide leg cuffed pant that EVERY office women THINKS she should wear.
yikes! on the first outfit. It just looks frumpy to me. The sweater is kind of granny-ish in a bad way, and I am just not a fan of those pants. She is a gorgeous woman, and I think that outfit overwhelms her.
The second outfit is very chic and classic, but could use a little more spice.
i love it
I couldn't agree more with dyan, it's the fantastic cut and fit (and subtle pattern) of those trousers (and of course the heels) that make her legs look like they go on for miles! Beautiful. And the gold in the necklace (and shoes?) against the silver-gray of the rest of the outfit is just right. If, say, the watch was gold it'd be too much, but it's just right. Classic.
that cable knit, kimono sleeved sweater is pretty much amazing……
Giovanna is soooo great! I adore her
A very good showing of a difference in style; the other one's very lax and loose, and the second photo shows sharpness and more sophisticacion.
But I adore both outfits ! I love how the first photo reminds me of the cardigans my granny knit for me. And the second one's very reminiscent of the Sixty's !
Giovana's style is always perfect !
i absolutely love the figure of the second woman! Her trousers fit beautifully and work really read with those heals and poloneck.
The first girl has a really nice playfull smile which goes so nicely with the huge knitwear i love it!
Great spots!
Nicky X
Lovin the chunky knits, so very now! I'll be getting myself some of that action(purse strings allowing!).
That's got to be the largest cardigan my eyes have ever seen. You've got to be a rail to wear that thing, though. Otherwise, it would fit… and you'd look ridiculous.
love the figure
yes, definitely, giovanna's style is perfect.
If my shoe eye is still working Giovanna's shoes are Lanvin.
Italians always with their cellphones!! hahahaha
She is on fire.
both of these are the graytest! gorgeous ladies pulling their outfits off wonderfully.
i was so excited to see these because I am wearing a giant knit sweater right now and champion them for their comfort, warmth, and proportioning magic.
equally a favorite of mine are high waisted gray check trousers. most people who see me in either- giant sweater or trousers- don't get it…but i am so glad these beautiful ladies do! gray is never boring when you do it right like they have…
Dont know which i love more…the sweater or that pants. Fabulous
1) Fresh faced woman. Genuine smile. This outfit works for her. I think because she kept thing simple. I do like her earrings which draws attention to her face and adds a bit of colour.
elegantemente ben vestita fine et sobria!!
Lady in Gray just proves you don't have to show too much skin be sexy. Love the whole look
Greyt pun and very cute gal.
I love her style. Would anyone happen to know what men's watch she is wearing?

Hello friends and neighbors. It is good to see you here.
Hello friends and neighbors. It is good to see you here.
It�s Halloween, a time when we remember the departed with scary costumes, the scarier the better, and trick or treating. The costumes down at the Haunted Downtown at Sturgeon City last weekend were certainly scary and so realistic. My sister-in-law Kelly Morley and niece Katie Morley participated. I didn�t make it through the walk. The free roaming characters were enough to scare me off.
As scary as the ghouls were, there are more frightening things in this world such as those costumed characters in Congress that recently shut down the government, put us out of perfectly good buildings and locked us out of our own property and heritage in the name of saving money. I know because last week they locked me out of the Gettysburg battlefield.
Mary Faulkner, Faye Morton and I traveled to Lancaster, Pa. on Oct. 11 to see the play Noah at the Sight and Sound Theater. It was awesome. With two side stages, it was like being in the Ark. A collective �aaaaah� rose from the 5,000 people attending as the curtain rose. Some of the animals were trained to go up the aisle and into the Ark two-by-two. Others were electronic but they looked so real.
The next day we toured Hershey, Pa. where even the streets are chocolate colored and the street lights are wrapped and unwrapped Hershey kisses. When the lights go out, the lights are then dark chocolate, the tour guide joked. Hershey was quiet the philanthropist and his legacy has grown. We traveled on to Gettysburg but were locked out of the historical battlefield because that crowd in DC was playing one-upmanship. There were park rangers with trucks at every entrance to keep us out. What I don�t understand is if they can pay park rangers to keep us out, why can�t those same park rangers be paid to let us in? It doesn�t make good walking around sense to me.
A couple where we stayed at the Red Lion Bed and Breakfast in Red Lion, Pa. had flown 13 hours from Australia to see America. They too were locked out of all the historical sites and monuments in DC. Even the Lincoln Memorial that is a walk through was blocked off. How silly is that? For the first time in my life, I was ashamed of my government and embarrassed for my country. Thank goodness the veterans would not tolerate their nonsense.
I spoke with the Australian woman over breakfast. She said a few years ago when elected officials in Australia had come to a stalemate, the Congress was dissolved and they started over. Now that�s an idea worth borrowing from the Aussies.
Living beyond our means as a country is also scary and so un-American that I find it hard to believe that this once proud and free country is now enslaved by debt and dependent upon other countries. Let�s not kid ourselves; as long as someone else is paying our tab, we are not free. The man with the gold makes the rules so to speak. A visit last week to privately owned Monticello (otherwise it would not have been open) reminded me of the government that men such as Thomas Jefferson set out to create for this country and how far we have strayed from that �independence.� The economic future is stacking up to be even more scary for our grandchildren.
Unemployment is really scary. Add the fear of Clintoncare now called Obamacare to too few and poorly paid jobs and the spiraling costs are the stuff of nightmares.
Forbidden fruit
Worn to a frazzle, Mary, Faye and I ate lunch at the Michie Tavern right outside of Monticello. We then went next door to the Carter Mountain Orchard to pick apples. It had been raining for days in Virginia. On Friday, it had rained so hard on the way up and with the traffic, we left Jacksonville at 6:30 a.m. but barely made the opening of the play in Lancaster at 7 p.m. in the evening. The ground was certainly wet and slippery.
We wound up the mountain in my little Prius. The orchard was a beehive of people buying apples, sampling apple donuts and other baked goods in the shops, and picking apples. I like Winesap apples but was disappointed to hear that the Winesap section of the orchard was closed off because the ground was so wet and there had been an accident the day before. When I explained that I had driven all the way from the coast of North Carolina to pick apples, Jeff Carlisle, a man who lives in the Charlottesville area, agreed with me. Someone said, �the Winesaps are just beyond the Granny Smiths but it is slippery. An ambulance had to be called yesterday.� Then it was added, �you wouldn�t want to go by yourself.�
�This gentleman will go with me,� I volunteered the advocate for Winesap apples, Jeff Carlisle, who was standing behind me.
Mary and I got our bags to pick Granny Smiths and followed Jeff through the fence gate. The red clay slopes were covered with hay but Mary immediately went down. I grabbed for her and caught her enough to keep her from falling but she did go down on her knees. I hung on to the apple tree to keep from sliding down behind her. Mary wallowed around in the straw and managed to get up while I hung on to her and myself. She retreated to the bathroom to clean up while I went to the car to get her some clean pants.
I again lit out for the forbidden fruit. I met Jeff on the way back. He gentlemanly escorted me back down the slopes to pick Winesaps hanging on to me and the trees. It was an adventure and I have a wooden bowl of beautiful red apples on my table to prove it.
Mary, Faye and I climbed back in the car and wound our way down the mountain, through the middle of Virginia on US Highway 15 and home to the flatlands.

'All Lives Splatter' Meme Posted On Sheriff's Facebook
By Hector Gonzales
September 13, 2017
A sheriff's office in Washington state is apologizing for posting a meme to Facebook showing protesters being hit by a car. The post from the is Chelan County Sheriff's Office published Monday which was also 9/11 shows stick figures being run down by a car with the text "All Lives Splatter." The sheriff's office says an employee posted the image to the Chelan County Emergency Management Facebook page by accident. Sheriff Brian Burnett issued a news release saying his staff feels terrible about the incident, calling the post inappropriate and hurtful.
The incident comes just one day after police detained and then released a man for speeding aggressively through a crowd of anti-hate counter-protesters at a Patriot Prayer rally in Vancouver.

The NYPD's Buffalo Connection
February 27, 2012
The New York City Police Department sent at least four officers to Buffalo, New York to spy on that city's Somali community, according to an internal Intelligence Division "briefing report" obtained by NYPD Confidential.
The NYPD launched its upstate spying operation even though the briefing report notes that the department's key Buffalo law enforcement official helping them gather intelligence "was not aware of any crime trends or crime patterns attributed to the ethnic Somali community."
The report, dated Jan. 2, 2009, and marked "law enforcement sensitive," also suggests that the NYPD researched Somali communities in Boston and Maine, but it's unclear if these groups were also put under surveillance.
The report noted that Somalis in Buffalo, Boston, and Maine settle in Hispanic or white neighborhoods rather than in African-American neighborhoods because of "an apparently unfavorable opinion that many Somalis supposedly have regarding the African-American black community."
It's unclear how the police reached this racially charged conclusion: whether they interviewed Somalis, consulted with someone else, or came to it on their own.
According to the briefing report, on Dec. 30, 2008, a captain, lieutenant and a sergeant from the Intelligence Division's Strategic Intelligence Unit [SIU], met with Erie County Undersheriff Richard Donovan regarding what the report described as the "Somalia Project."
The report, written by the SIU lieutenant, described Donovan as a "seasoned law enforcement executive" who had retired as Police Commissioner of the Buffalo Police Department in 1994. The report stated that Donovan would be "our key" person in western New York.
It was Donovan who told those three visiting NYPD officers that he didn't know of any crime trends attributed to Somalis in the Buffalo area. The report added that Donovan "acknowledged that a lot of attention has not been paid to this community" and that he "assured us that more attention will now be given to that area."
The report said that Donovan "provided the members of SIU with an overview of the ethnic Somalian [sic] Community in the Buffalo area, where there are in excess of 1,000 Somali immigrants residing. There are also an estimated 300 Somali students in the public school system, mostly enrolled in one of two schools which service the West Side of Buffalo."
The report stated that Donovan also "pledged assistance … in helping to secure new joint sources of information within the Buffalo area," including "persons of interest within the Erie County jail system and within the Buffalo area."
In addition, Donovan "offered to facilitate a relationship between the Security Chief at the University of Buffalo [retired Buffalo PD captain] and SIU…" The Associated Press reported two weeks ago that the NYPD had spied on a Muslim student group there.
Donovan also approved an NYPD request "to develop assets jointly in the Buffalo area, to act as listening posts within the ethnic Somalian [sic] community, especially regarding any ethnic Somali person[s] who may travel overseas for terrorism-related training," the report stated. The report noted that a fourth NYPD officer, a detective, would become "the lead investigator for SIU efforts in the Buffalo area."
The report also described an "unrelated, ongoing SIU investigation." Besides meeting with Donovan on Dec. 30, 2008, the report said that the NYPD captain, lieutenant and sergeant "conducted vehicle surveillance" of five Somali locations that appear to be mosques. "New license plate information [NJ Registration] was obtained of a new vehicle observed at a subject location and photos taken," the reported said.
The briefing report also stated that at least one of those NYPD officers paid an "unannounced visit to a Confidential Informant living in Buffalo" to debrief him "on recent actions."
Both actions suggest that the NYPD's spying in the Buffalo area had begun well before December 2008. The report did not make clear whether the NYPD's spying on the Somalis continues today or whether it resulted in any terrorism-related arrests.
The report also stated that detectives from the NYPD's Liaison Unit based in Canada might "investigate the Somali population in Canada."
Donovan "had an interesting suggestion for us … He stated that due to the more relaxed and generous Canadian public assistance programs, it is reasonable to assume that some ethnic Somalis, who may have originally travelled to the Buffalo area, may have opted instead to settle right over the border in Canada," the report said. NYPD Confidential has no information about whether Donovan's suggestion was acted upon.
These revelations of NYPD spying in Buffalo follow reports by the Associated Press that in 2007 the NYPD spied on Muslims in Newark, New Jersey, collecting the license plates of worshippers, monitoring them on surveillance cameras, and cataloging sermons through a network of informants.
In Newark, the NYPD used as its liaison then police commissioner Garry McCarthy, who was a former top NYPD commander. McCarthy told the AP that the NYPD had told him as a courtesy that it was sending plainclothes officers into Newark in 2007.
It was not clear if McCarthy knew the extent of the NYPD's spying operation in Newark. Nor was it clear what he had told Newark Mayor Cory Booker about it.
But after learning of the NYPD's Muslim surveillance from the AP, Booker said he had been "misled." Together with other New Jersey officials, including U.S. Senator Robert Menendez, he called for an investigation.
In Buffalo, it was also unclear whether Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown knew about the NYPD's Somalia Project.
Mary Murray, a spokeswoman for the Erie County Sheriff's department, said Donovan had retired and that she would attempt to contact him. She did not return a phone call about his whereabouts. NYPD Confidential could not independently reach him.
Erie County Sheriff Timothy B. Howard did not return a call.
Michael DeGeorge, a spokesman for the Buffalo Police Department, said the department did not "discuss investigations involving other police agencies."
DeGeorge, who also serves as Mayor Brown's spokesman, did not return a call asking if Mayor Brown knew of the NYPD's spying on the Somalis.
The NYPD's Deputy Commissioner for Public Information Paul Browne did not return an email seeking comment on the Somalia Project.
In New York both Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Police Commissioner Ray Kelly maintain publicly that the NYPD is not targeting people based on race or religion and is merely following "leads."
Bloomberg said last week, "Everything the NYPD has done is legal, it is appropriate, it is constitutional. They are permitted to travel beyond the border of New York City to investigate cases. … It 'd be naïve to think we should stop following threats when we got to the border …"
But Bloomberg appeared to acknowledge for the first time that the NYPD did not merely follow leads. "When there's no lead, it's just you're trying to get familiar with what's going on and where people might go and where people might be."
A former top NYPD official who asked for anonymity said, "It's one thing to sit in an office and monitor the websites of Muslim student groups. It is another to send officers to other jurisdictions without informing local officials. If they [the NYPD] have reasonable grounds, let's hear about it. If not, it's a waste of energy."
What neither Bloomberg nor Kelly will say publicly is that the NYPD's out-of-the-city spying is being conducted without the help or knowledge of the FBI, the country's leading agency in fighting terrorism.
"Has the NYPD's Intelligence Division been sharing all this intelligence information with its law enforcement partners on the Joint [FBI and NYPD] Terrorism Task Force?" said a former FBI official. "I bet not."
"What if they came across an imminent terrorist situation? Are we to believe that Kelly and Cohen [David Cohen, Deputy Commissioner of the NYPD's Intelligence Division] would tell their people to back off and contact the FBI and the JTTF in the area? Why would we trust them to do that when their track record does not support it?
"…Also, if this precedent is allowed, what would stop the LAPD, the Chicago PD or the Washington D.C. PD from doing the same thing anywhere in the country? What a mess [and a danger] that would be."

200 Attend Fraternity Celebrationby Jim Amidon • April 8, 2013 Share:
Over 200 students, alumni advisors, faculty, staff, and administrators gathered Sunday to celebrate Greek life on the campus at the College's first Wabash Fraternity Day.
Dubbed "A Celebration of Greek Life," the event was organized by the Inter-Fraternity Council and the Wabash Fraternity Advisors.
IFC President Sky King '15 and alumnus Jon Pactor '71 served as emcees of the event. The goal was to get fraternity men talking with one another to seize opportunities and solve problems.
During the course of the program, each of Wabash's nine national fraternities made presentations about successful ventures in community service, scholarship, and membership growth, while others spoke about challenges like budgeting and finances.
All of the fraternity men were assigned to tables so that each table would have what Pactor described as a "United Nations" feel — members of different chapters at every table. Fraternity advisors, faculty, and staff spread out to facilitate conversations that shared ideas about how the various fraternities solve problems.
"We often struggle to get brothers out of their houses to spend time with other members of other fraternities," King said. "This is one example of how the IFC is working to create a more united campus, one that will provide a great experience for all Wabash men."
The coalition of fraternity alumni advisors began in 2009 and since that time, alumni representing the College's fraternities have met frequently.
"We believe that no other college has a group of alumni advisors meeting regularly and working together to deal with any issue involving fraternity life," said Pactor. "That includes academics, risk management, governance, relationships with professors and coaches, housing arrangements, and anything else."
As president of the IFC, King shared his vision for the future of fraternity life at Wabash. "Wabash College is a school of problems. For a lot of people on campus this leads to bickering, blaming, and even sometimes leaving, but there is also a group of students here who view this as an opportunity. Now this may seem a little funny: the idea of problems being an opportunity. But in a school full of men who pride themselves on the idea of personal responsibility, this should be expected. Given the nature of our campus and the Gentleman's Rule, we are allowed to live in an environment that is almost a blank canvas —one where we can completely configure the social dynamics of this school. We can decide to step up and to take responsibility for our actions."
In addition to formal remarks from President Pat White and Dean of Students Mike Raters, fraternities were honored for impact, academic achievement, and community service. Dean Raters presented the campus GPA awards to Phi Gamma Delta, which had the highest GPA among freshman fraternity members and the highest overall campus GPA.
Judges for the other awards were members of the Wabash faculty — Professors Laura Wysocki (chair), Wally Novak, Elizabeth Morton, Sara Drury, and Jeremy Hartnett.
Psi Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta also claimed the Senior Impact Award. The citation read: "The Phi Gamma Delta Senior Class has displayed excellence in academic achievement while staying involved in a wide variety of campus organizations. Their leadership and innovation can be felt in athletics, student government, academic societies, clubs, and more. This senior class has been active in creatively implementing philanthropy here at Wabash and around Indiana, giving back to the campus and community at large. We appreciate all they have done to make Wabash College a better place in their time here."
Kappa Sigma was honored with the Freshman Impact Award. The citation read: "The Kappa Sigma freshman have been impressive in their dedication to academics, their fraternity, campus involvement, and philanthropy. With seven freshmen participating in 35 different campus activities, significant community service, and several in-house leadership positions, they have already had an impact on campus and beyond, and we look forward to seeing them continue to excel."
The College's chapter of Theta Delta Chi captured the Philanthropy Award, which came as no surprise since it has won its national fraternity award for its service to the community.
The citation honoring Theta Delta Chi read: "The men of Theta Delta Chi have shown true passion when it comes to giving back to the community in many ways. With 100% participation from their members, it is not uncommon to see them raising funds at athletic events, organizing walks to benefit Breast Cancer Awareness or Autism Speaks, and volunteering in Crawfordsville. They take on large events and work with national organizations, but also contribute in many small, but invaluable ways to the local community. Their innovation and excitement is contagious and we celebrate their generosity of spirit."
King also invited Associate Dean for Advancement Joe Klen to the stage, and presented him with a pledge of $3,600 to the Annual Fund — money given back to the College by fraternity men.
Pactor provided his vision for Wabash fraternities going forward in his closing comments. "All of us have an obligation to preserve and protect our fraternities — an obligation none of us in this room can shirk.
"Boys are risk-takers. When we come to Wabash, we take risks. A small liberal arts college for men is a risk. A small school is not popular; a liberal arts school is not popular; a men's college is not popular. Then, joining a fraternity is not popular. I am encouraging all of us to take still another risk—the risk of putting the highest priority on developing manly character and working toward the highest values of our fraternities, all subsumed by being a gentleman and a responsible citizen.
"We will continue to improve our fraternities. We will continue to give support to each other—academically, ethically, and socially. We will continue to learn how to deal with conflict resolution. We will continue to learn how to compromise and be self-governing. We will continue to learn to be morally courageous in dealing with complex problems. The general society needs fraternity men who hold those values and who can use those skills.
"Here is my vision for Wabash fraternities: Our fraternities will continue to develop gentlemen and responsible citizens and do it even better than we have."

Indoor Tree! The Easiest Ever: Pachira Aquatica
Indoor trees are especially beautiful because they rarely grow inside. The Pachira aquatica is one such tree. It is virtually kill-proof, tidy and grows as large (or small) as you want them. They are also virtually immune to the most common cause of black thumbs: over watering. This plant loves water so you don't have to fear any over watering impulse you may have.
The Pachira aquatica is also known as the money tree, guiana chestnut or the saba nut. Because this tropical tree thrives near wetlands and swamps, it loves soil that is moist at all times. Hence, the kill-proof factor. It also thrives in indirect light so growing it indoors is no problem. Just position it in the brightest area of your home. (Wiki)
How to care for the Pachira aquatica:
• This plant loves moisture but you should never let it stand in water. Good drainage is essential.
• Position this plant in bright indirect light indoors, turning it everytime you water it for even growth and leafing.
• Water this plant consistently. 1 - 2 times per week depending on humidity. Make sure you water all the topsoil, just until the water starts leaking out the drain holes.
• For optimal longevity, lightly fertilize the Pachira 3 - 4 times a year with a water-soluble fertilizer. (I use an easy one that you scatter on the topsoil that gradually dissolves with each watering.)

I absolutely am in love with this purchase. It has been worn a few times already and has held up great after each wash with no fading, loss of shape or pealing. This graphic works best I think against the grey I chose. Love that this artist represents the beautiful diversity of our Puerto Rican culture. This image resonates with me being that I am Puerto Rican of mostly African descent. Thank you Ida Yvette Robles for representing all of us Boricuas!

This item arrived stained and dingy. The t-shirt itself has a stain on it and the color is absolutely nothing like the photo. The product detail has my image on a white tank top; however, the tank top that arrived looks like it was washed with a bunch of brown clothes and has a dirty look to it, aside from the stain. I took a picture of a Gildan white t-shirt I own (thats been washed several times already) with the tank top I received to show how dingy the tank looks. I've opened a ticket regarding a refund or replacement on this item and still have yet to hear back from anyone. Yet again, not a good first impression for this company.
This is a single panel from a Triptych, digital manipulated photograph of a multiple colored bushel of Gladiolas, with a fractal paint effect applied to it.

About Film:
Marriage Italian Style (Italian: Matrimonio all'italiana) is a 1964 film which tells the story of a successful businessman who kept a woman as his mistress for several years and now plans to marry another woman until his mistress pretends to be on her deathbed to induce him to marry her before she dies. It stars Sophia Loren, Marcello Mastroianni and Vito Moricone.
One of the movie's most memorable moments is when the Mastroianni character is speaking on the phone with his new flame, shortly after having married the "moribund" Filumena. As he reassures his fiancee that death is near, a wild-eyed and vengeful Filumena emerges from the shadows behind him and exclaims in Neapolitan that she is in fact alive and well, the Madonna having taken pity on her.
It was nominated for Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language Film in 1966, and for Best Actress in a Leading Role in 1965.
Filomena Marturano had already been adapted as a film in 1950 in Argentina.
Nominated for 2 Oscars. Another 8 wins & 6 nominations.

I have been a Williams Sonoma long time customer, I love the stores as well and the choice of quality products is unbeatable. With my cooking background and retail experience I would love to work at one of the stores but there is not one near me, maybe some day. Thanks, GaryDate published: 2017-01-04Rated 5 out of 5 by jmmill from Really Like It I replaced an old, basic waffle maker with this one. We have used it a couple of times, and have been very pleased. The waffles come out baked as we want them, since we're able to make adjustments on this machine; something we could not do before. We're well pleased.Date published: 2016-06-10Rated 5 out of 5 by AustenBibi from The wait for perfect waffles is over Item took about two weeks to arrive, at standard (free) shipping--and that was the only disappointment. Now making perfect waffles that are crispy on the outside (at setting 6 out of 7), moist inside, and easy to clean up afterward, thanks to external stainless housing. While I loved my last waffle iron for 26 years, I have to admit that this one is WAY better. Also, this product has cute little feet on the outside that allow you to store it upright as well as laying flat.

State police on Tuesday charged a 74-year-old Butler Township man with causing nearly $800 in damage earlier this month, when he urinated inside a toy store on Route 8 in Center Township.
Police were called at about 2 p.m. on Nov. 2 for a man reportedly urinating on merchandise at Playthings Etc. The store manager showed police surveillance video of the incident, according to court documents.
Troopers identified the suspect, David G. Pacoe, and interviewed him the next day. "He admitted to the act," police said.
Pacoe is charged with criminal mischief.

September is National Preparedness Month and a great time to make sure you have the needed tools to survive an emergency or disaster.
Emergencies will happen, but taking action now can help to minimize the impact they will have on your life. Readiness is a shared responsibility and the Office of Emergency Managements asks all Anchorage residents to make the pledge to prepare this month and to truly help themselves, their neighbors and their community to be prepared.
Anchorage residents can get started by downloading a family emergency plan, emergency kit checklist and information on how to get involved locally.
Be informed about the types of emergencies that can happen in your area. Preparedness is contagious. What starts with one family can spread throughout a neighborhood, and every prepared community frees up emergency responders to take care of those who are in dire need.
Preparedness is a shared responsibility and everyone has a role. So take the time and prepare.

Thirteen years ago this week, construction began on our Swansboro home. After months of interviewing area builders and discussing with neighbors their experience with local general contractors, we agreed to have Carl Waters build our home.
Thirteen years ago this week, construction began on our Swansboro home. After months of interviewing area builders and discussing with neighbors their experience with local general contractors, we agreed to have Carl Waters build our home.
We were glad we did. Waters had already built four homes in our 61-lot subdivision; we would be his fifth, and he would follow with two more several years later.
Waters told us � weather permitting � that we could expect to be in our new home by October. Sure enough, Mother Nature cooperated and there were no interruptions as each phase of construction unfolded on schedule. Shortly before the Mullet Festival, we received the keys to our new home and were happy as clams.
They say building a house can test a marriage. As our home took shape, we would hear anecdotal tales from people of the horrors they experienced while watching their dream home be built. That was never the case with Waters. Because he had so much steady work and his reputation was top notch, Waters had a dedicated legion of subcontractors at his beck and call: Randy and Debbie Arnold for lot clearing and septic tank installations; Coy Willis was his framer and Mike and Joe were his painters. Kellum Heating and Air did his duct work and Jody Floyd finished off the project with landscaping.
Through each stage of the construction, local labor was employed. The money we paid Waters went back into the local economy. Through this process my wife and I became friends not only with Waters and his wife Betty Jo, who came by each day to inspect work just completed, but with the Arnolds and Jody Floyd. It actually took a community to build our home, and we were grateful for their craftsmanship. We felt good knowing we were supporting local businesses and their employees.
Much has changed since the go-go days of 2001 -- when the locals would proclaim when asked how they were doing, �We�re wide open.� They surely had their collective pedals to the metal and were running full throttle.
Inside our neighborhood, new construction came to halt when the Great Recession brought the nation�s economy to a halt.
The days of Waters and his local competitors building custom homes in my neck of the woods is a distant memory, but that�s not to say there aren�t any new homes being constructed. On the contrary, more new homes are sprouting up from where once sod and soy beans were grown or where loblolly pines offered habitat for wildlife.
But the builders this go-around aren�t neighbors, local businessmen or friends with whom you grew up. These builders are regional and national companies. Instead of subcontracting to the Randy and Debbie Arnolds or Coy Willis in our community, for the most part, they bring in their own help and purchase their materials from national suppliers..
On a recent Saturday morning, I was walking my dog along Hammocks Beach Road past the Swansboro Soccer Association playing fields when I saw framers erecting the first section of studs on what would be the first home built in Park Place at the Hammocks � a D.R. Horton development across the road from the Seaside Cemetery. When I walked past it the next day, the first floor walls were in position. By Monday it was framed out with synthetic wrapping covering its exterior.
D.R. Horton is a publicly traded company and the largest U.S. homebuilder when measured by homes sold. It doesn�t waste time. The same company built 10 single family homes further down Hammocks Beach Road near the state park on land that was once a sod farm. Now occupied, these spacious 2,700 to 3,100 square-foot homes are priced between $250,000 and $281,000 form a neighborhood called Hammock Cove.
I suppose this phenomenon of outside builders coming in and doing the work that local, general contractors had done for generations is the new normal.
In story published Jan. 29 in The Wall Street Journal, D.R. Horton�s CEO Donald Tomnitz felt the Fort Worth, Texas-based company�s early 2014 sales �were better than expected.� He went on to say, �I feel that we�re on the cusp of a strong spring-selling season.�
D.R. Horton sold 5,454 homes in the last quarter with the average price of each unit selling for $275,600, according company figures.
In a macro-business analysis, we should all feel positive that the largest national homebuilder has committed resources to our area. Understandably, though, homeowners who reside in homes adjacent to existing and future D.R. Horton communities, as well as other large building tracts, may experience some heartburn knowing it may be difficult to sell their residences when so much new inventory is on the market. Jacksonville real estate agent Carol Tusing told me recently she has never see as many new and existing homes on the multiple listing service data base as she sees at the moment.
I can accept the new normal for now. Speaking with Waters last week inside his Swansboro Ace Hardware store, I can say he too accepts it. Waters told me it�s next to impossible to be competitive with the national builders. He told me their labor and material costs are substantially lower than what local builders could offer.
The Arnolds are still clearing land and installing septic tanks but they�re having to go further out of town to do it. Willis stopped framing locally and took a contractor�s job in the Middle East. Jody Floyd and his Tidewater Landscaping business is still viable.
But if I were to get an inkling about building another home, I think I would pass on the national guys. Instead, I believe I would try my hardest to get �the band back together again� and have Waters and the Boys do an encore performance. I say with pride that I live in a house built by one of Swansboro�s own.

Brian Panish was indignant as the two men argued in the judge's chambers.
"Judge," the Michael Jackson family attorney snapped, "if I want to give him the finger, I know how to give him the finger."
"And you did it quite well twice," replied Marvin Putnam, an attorney for entertainment giant AEG.
Panish denied doing any such thing but added, "If he wants me to give him the finger, I'm happy to do that."
The trial over whether a division of one of America's most powerful entertainment conglomerates is liable in the death of a legendary pop star has been filled with testimony about Jackson's drug use, his physical and mental deterioration and his growing fears as a comeback tour approached.
FULL COVERAGE: AEG wrongful death trial
But the other drama may well be the bruising war of words between the two lead attorneys, one an Ivy League product who worked in France and the other a Fresno State grad who attended school on a football scholarship.
The two lawyers have snipped, argued, shouted, rolled their eyes, bumped shoulders in the courtroom doorway and once got into such a combative argument in the hallway that the court clerk stepped into the corridor to tell them to cool it; an order they promptly ignored.
For more than four months, the lawyers have taken daily shots at each other as jurors and spectators looked on, often in amusement, a sideshow that can be as riveting as some of the testimony.
The day after the argument in the corridor, L.A. County Superior Court Judge Yvette Palazuelos called the two attorneys into her chambers again and told them they would be sanctioned if their behavior didn't improve. Putnam called Panish "despicable" and refused to shake his hand. "Where I'm from," he said, "handshakes mean something."
With closing arguments in the long-running trial expected to start Tuesday, jurors and court spectators will get a final glimpse of two attorneys who seem to share little except an open disdain for each other.
"I can't think of a case where there's been so much animosity," said Panish, a veteran of more than 100 trials. "When I say good morning to them, they don't even say good morning back."
The stakes in the wrongful-death case are high, with one witness calculating that the pop star could have earned as much as $1.5 billion had he lived. But neither attorney, nor their law firms, is a foreigner when it comes to staggering sums of money.
AEG Live is represented by O'Melveny & Myers, a 128-year-old firm with 800 attorneys in 16 offices worldwide and a client list that includes Time Warner, Citigroup and Lockheed Martin. Its lawyers have served as U.S. secretary of State, secretary of Transportation and White House counsel.
The Jackson legal team is led by Panish, Shea and Boyle, which has one office and 15 lawyers. The firm has won 20 jury verdicts of $10 million or more, and its $4.9-billion judgment against General Motors, which a judge cut to $1.2 billion, was the largest personal injury verdict ever. The firm has done well enough to have an ownership interest in two airplanes.
Both Panish and Putnam are listed in the top 100 lawyers in California by the Daily Journal, but almost everything about their firms is different, from the attorneys they hire to their clients. Even the way they dress is different.
The O'Melveny & Myers attorneys look as though they were issued uniforms in colors ranging from black to dark gray. Jessica Stebbins Bina has worn black pantsuits every day of the nearly five months of trial. Contrast that with Deborah Chang, of the Jackson team, who has questioned witnesses while wearing a lime green coat, dangling earrings and high heels.
The O'Melveny team, nearly all Ivy Leaguers, is led by Putnam, a trim, balding man who grew up in Maine, attended Phillips Exeter and Harvard before earning his law degree at Georgetown. His wife, another Harvard grad, is executive director of Robert Redford's Sundance Institute and was president of production for Miramax Films.
Panish, the son of a lawyer, is heavyset with a full head of graying black hair. He attended Catholic schools, went to Fresno State on a football scholarship and received his law degree from Southwestern Law School.
Panish was recommended to the Jackson family by Thomas A. Mesereau Jr., who defended the pop star when he was tried on child molestation charges in 2005. "I told the family Brian Panish was the best plaintiff's civil trial lawyer in L.A. and that no one else comes close," Mesereau said.
Even the way the firms are paid underscores their differences.
Putnam's firm usually charges by the hour, and its lawyers get paid whether they win or lose. O'Melveny already has earned millions from the Jackson-AEG case.
Attorneys like Panish are more entrepreneurial. Each case is an investment, which is why his firm agrees to take fewer than 1% of those that come its way. "You have to be a risk taker to be a personal injury attorney," said Jody Armour, a professor at USC's Gould School of Law. "More of a swashbuckler by personality."
They usually are paid a portion of their clients' winnings, as much as 40%, and shell out the money for experts and other costs. If they lose, not only do they not get paid, they could be out a lot of money for their expenses.
"The big-firm lawyers get paid per hour," Panish said, "and we get paid perhaps."
Though corporate lawyers like Putnam seldom take cases to trial, the courtroom is a second home to personal injury attorneys such as Panish. "Since we filed this Jackson case in 2010, Brian Panish by himself has tried more cases to verdict than the entire team of O'Melveny lawyers working on this case have tried in their careers," said Kevin Boyle, Panish's partner.
During a recent week-long break in the Jackson trial, Panish was part of the legal team that won a $17-million verdict for an 85-year-old man whose leg was amputated below the knee after he was hit by a bus.
By the time a case like Jackson vs. AEG gets to trial, said John Nockleby, director of the Civil Justice Program at Loyola Law School, the two sides have already spent months squabbling over schedules, depositions, and expert witnesses.
"When the stakes are huge, as they are in this case, there are enormous pressures on lawyers to perform, to win these battles," he said.
Over the course of the trial, Putnam has directed several pointed accusations at Panish, saying he had "defamed a number of people inside the courtroom and outside the courtroom" and was telling reporters lies.
Putnam declined to be interviewed for this story.
On the other side, Boyle said that O'Melveny has gone out of its way to make things difficult, not even offering the usual professional courtesies, such as the scheduling of depositions or making simple agreements. O'Melveny wouldn't stipulate that Jackson was dead until after the trial had begun.
Asked if O'Melveny looked down on them, Boyle replied, "They certainly act that way. It seems a very coordinated effort of smugness."
Panish remains angry that Putnam accused his firm of leaking sealed emails to The Times. "I'm not happy about our integrity being challenged." Panish said.
Panish said he's gone against O'Melveny before without any problems.
"I don't have any issue with the law firm," he said. "Mr. Putnam doesn't like us. There's not much we can do about it. Everybody in the world's not going to like me."

If you buy an airline ticket and need to change or cancel your itinerary, you could be in for an even more unpleasant surprise.
Most travelers buy nonrefundable tickets because they cost considerably less than refundable tickets. But a couple of airlines have recently raised fees for changing and canceling nonrefundable domestic tickets, and they could be joined by more airlines in the coming weeks.
Last month, United increased its change fee on nonrefundable domestic tickets to $200, up from $150. US Airways quickly followed suit.
Thus far, American and Delta have not raised their domestic change fees, which are currently $150.
Domestic change fees on other U.S. airlines are $75 on Alaska; $100 on Frontier, JetBlue and Virgin America; and $125 on Spirit.
The change fees to international destinations such as Europe and Asia are holding steady at $250.
It's not just the change fee you'll have to pay. If the new ticket you book is more expensive, you'll have to pay the difference plus the change fee.
Some airlines deduct the fee from the amount of your original ticket when you change or cancel, but others give you a credit in the original amount of the ticket and charge you the fee when you go to use the credit.
For example, if you paid $500 for a ticket and you had to change or cancel your flight, you would get a credit voucher of $500 on US Airways and would have to pay the change fee to access the credit.
On American, the $150 change fee would be deducted from the price of your original fare, and you would have a credit voucher of $350.
Here's the other sad part about US Airways policies. Let's say you do pay your $200 change fee and your new ticket costs $200.
Under this policy, you would lose the remaining $100. On American and Delta, if the new ticket costs $200, you get the rest after the change fee is deducted.
Here's some more sad news: American Airlines and US Airways may merge , and the management team from US Airways will be operating the new American Airlines.
We're hoping these rules don't come along with the merger.
On the up side, Southwest Airlines has the most traveler-friendly policy when it comes to change fees.
If there is an increase in your new airfare, you will be required to pay the difference, but there is no additional fee.
However, Southwest has announced a change to its policy for travelers who do not cancel their flight at least 10 minutes before departure. The airline will begin a new no-show policy on Wanna Get Away and Ding! special fares that were purchased on or after May 10, for travel beginning Sept. 13.
If you do not contact the airline to change or cancel your flight before it is scheduled to depart — you can do so by phone ([800] 435-9792), online (www.southwest.com) or through Southwest's mobile app — you will lose the total value of your ticket.
The new no-show policy is in line with the policies of other airlines. Southwest has been lenient, but no-shows represent seats that could have been sold. It is, after all, a business.
It always pays to know your airline's policy if your travel plans are apt to change and book accordingly.

Profile of Lindsey Vonn
Name at birth: Lindsey Kildow
Lindsey Vonn is the winningest female ski racer in American history. Lindsey Vonn grew up in Apple Valley, Minnesota and began skiing at age 2; when she was 11 she moved to Colorado with her family to train at Ski Club Vail. At age 17 she qualified for the 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake City, finishing a promising sixth in the combined event. She went on to become one of America's most celebrated skiiers, winning dozens of World Cup victories and back-to-back overall World Cup Championships in 2008 and 2009. She's had less luck in the Olympics: she was injured in practice just before the Turin Olympics of 2006 and didn't win a medal, and in 2010 she suffered a pre-Olympic shin injury. But that year she recovered to win a gold medal in the women's downhill and a bronze in the Super-G.
She married Thomas Vonn, a former ski racer, in 2007; they were divorced in January of 2013… Lindsey Vonn dated golf superstar Tiger Woods from 2012 until 2015, when they announced their split on social media… Lindsey Vonn's fame has been helped along by her good looks; she posed for the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue in 2010.
