Sticking to their 'anti-disqualification' and 'anti-Communist' themes caused opposition to suffer a heavy erosion of voter support, Tony Kwok writes
After casting his vote in the Legislative Council by-election on Sunday, former chief executive Tung Chee-hwa made a public appeal. He said: "The era of quarrelling should be ended. Advocacies of Hong Kong independence and self-determination will cost the city a heavy toll." He called on people to vote for candidates who were "constructive, pragmatic and true-heartedly serving Hong Kong into the Legislative Council".
His appeal is most important and timely — opposition parties had used the by-election as a "de facto referendum" over LegCo members' disqualification saga, with "anti-disqualification and anti-Communist" as their campaign theme.
Such an anti-Communist stance used to work in previous LegCo geographical constituency elections, garnering them votes with a ratio of 6 to 4 over pro-establishments opponents. However, as China strengthens and gains respect on the world stage more and more Hong Kong people appreciate the extraordinary achievements of the country under the Communist Party of China's leadership, laying to rest the "pan-democrats'" former electoral winning formula. That was starkly brought home in the geographical constituency election, when pro-establishment candidate Vincent Cheng Wing-shun achieved an unprecedented victory over the opposition candidate in Kowloon West, where he took home 107,479 votes, over anti-disqualification champion Edward Yiu Chung-yim's 105,060 votes. This result is most encouraging and demonstrated a drastic shift in public sentiment and a gradual return to rationality in local politics. It also showed that playing the anti-Communism card will no longer work in local politics.
The pro-establishment camp should take advantage of their enhanced position and seek to amend LegCo rules of procedure to put the house in order. They can start with enforcing a proper dress code and prohibiting placards on members' tables and unjustified filibusters
Even in the Hong Kong Island constituency, the pro-establishment New People's Party candidate Judy Chan Ka-pui only suffered a marginal loss to Au Nok-hin, who had all the heavyweights of the opposition camp coming out in full force to campaign for him. Au bagged 137,181 votes to Chan's 127,634. But Au's tally is still much less than Anson Chan Fang On-sang received in a similar by-election in 2007, when she garnered 175,874 votes, thus representing a loss of 38,324 votes. This is attributed at least in part to their anti-disqualification slogan which many voters find unacceptable.
Also in the New Territories East constituency, a traditional stronghold of the opposition they had 57.6 percent of votes and pocketed six out of the nine constituency seats in the 2016 general election. But on this occasion, their representative Gary Fan Kwok-wai, of the Neo-Democrats, won with 183,762 votes — just 44 percent of all valid votes. It clearly showed a substantial decline of their voter appeal, as many voters are put off by their "anti-disqualification" campaign.
It is gratifying to see a return to rationality in the Architectural, Surveying, Planning and Landscape functional constituency where pro-establishment candidate Tony Tse Wai-chuen beat opposition rival Paul Zimmerman, enlarging the camp's dominance in the functional group to 25 against 10.
The Kowloon West win lets the pro-establishment camp continue leading the geographical group by 17 to 16 seats, thus taking away the opposition's veto power under LegCo's split-voting rule, which they had often abused in the past.
The pro-establishment camp should take advantage of their enhanced position and seek to amend LegCo rules of procedure to put the house in order. They can start with enforcing a proper dress code and prohibiting placards on members' tables and unjustified filibusters. LegCo should also seek a refund of expenses from disqualified former member Yiu.
However, it should be noted that in the Architectural, Surveying, Planning and Landscape functional constituency, loser Zimmerman had 2,345 votes against Tony Tse's 2,929. It is hard to understand why there are 2,345 professionals in this constituency who would choose a non-professional as their LegCo representative. Efforts should be made to ascertain their motive and whether a better understanding of the huge development potential for them in the Greater Bay Area project would change their attitude toward the Chinese mainland.
Hong Kong Island winner Au Nok-hin was found to have burnt the Basic Law booklet in public and during an election debate, he claimed he would be prepared to burn it again! This cannot be tolerated as it is clearly in breach of the National People's Congress interpretation that all LegCo members should respect and swear allegiance to the Basic Law. A judicial review should be lodged as soon as possible to strip him of his LegCo membership.
Au is commonly regarded as a representative of the young political party Demosisto, which advocated "Hong Kong independence" and "self-determination". The party is in turn supported by foreign forces. Hence his win would likely encourage this radical political party to be more aggressive in pursuing their political goals. It thus needs to be monitored more closely and accountability be made as to the source of his political funding for the election.
In this by-election, only 904,000 of the 2.1 million registered voters in the four constituencies cast their ballots; the turnout was merely 43 percent. If Hong Kong really wants to push for greater democracy, they must demonstrate they are at least prepared to sacrifice 15 minutes of their time to walk to their nearby polling station to vote! Hong Kong should seriously consider following Singapore's example of mandatory voting.
As a final observation, this by-election cost HK$500 million to stage. If the judiciary was prepared to speed up the appeals of the other two disqualified members, "Long Hair" Leung Kwok-hung and Lau Siu-lai, who have appealed their disqualifications, we could have had to hold just one by-election, and save taxpayers a huge sum of money and a lot of the public's time.

text: New update. I have swapped the MH/T5 fixture for 160w maxspect. And it rocks! I have it suspended on one lamp post that comes with Artisan using the maxspect hanging kit. Had to modify the hanging cables (stainless steel core - hard to cut) since I decided to use only 1 lamp post. Overall during the move I lost one millipora, oregon tort and couple of zoa frags. And some pics: FTS I kind of like the old aquascaping. It also contained the nems better. One is on the move right now. May switch back to it. Tank with the fixture: Under the tank. Total mess. I need to make shelves there and maybe fit a ato/controller/djpowerstrip. [/B][/B]

On the last couple of days of Term 3, Room 8 had the opportunity to send off the donations to our chosen organisations for Dare to Care.
We wrote letters explaining why we had done these projects and happily got the cheques and envelopes from Val so we could send them off. Some of us were really surprised at the amounts we ended up with.
Included here are some photos of our letters and our cheques. We hadn't had much experience with cheques or writing on envelopes before. This was some new learning for many of us
We are so happy to have sent off our donations and hope the organisations put the money to good use. Thank you to Val for sorting and counting all our money and writing out the cheques on demand!

Well, Grey's Anatomy is back in action and it did not disappoint! There were so many great scenes! Like when Christina told McDreamy she didn't like him...hilarious! When Christina found out Burke isn't coming back...sad. When Derrick stuck up for Merideth with McSteamy...so cool! When the guy who was internally decapitated was in surgery and Christina was talking to him...emotional! When McSteamy said he actually came back for McDreamy...SO STINKIN' HILARIOUS! When Izzy told the interns off...so good! George telling Izzy he loves her...so NOT what I want to happen! And of course, when McDreamy and Meridith "break up"...so HOT! Even though I watch Grey's at home withouT anyone watching with me, I'm really not alone! My sister Beth and I watch it and call each other during commercials!! Our husband's find this annoying but we don't care! We have to discuss the best parts since we aren't watching it together!
Hope everyone else enjoyed the first episode...looks like it is going to be GREAT season!

Tyler is 8
I just can't believe that my son is 8 already. When the heck did he get this big? I I remember being pregnant, very pregnant, and calling my mom and crying. I was freaking out!!! Getting nervous and I asked her..."What am I going to do with a baby?" I'm sure you have all been there...doubting that you could actually be a good mother! And look at me now...still doubting it!!! LOL! But, I got him this far so I must be doing something right!
He is so excited about his birthday. Tomorrow is his party and we will have a house filled with family! I should be cleaning right now! But I had to post a Happy Birthday to my baby!!!

This is why Tyler got the Sportsmanship award the for football 2 weeks ago. He is on the sidelines a lot but he NEVER complains about it. Which, makes me kind of mad. Tyler did really well last week and there are other kids on the team that are REALLY GOOD but they are, shall I say, brats! They know they are good and they feel they HAVE to play what they want when THEY want. Complaining all the time! Tyler does what he is told, tries his hardest and is on the sidelines. In the end it is more about winning for the coach than anything else. Even though they say it isn't. Don't get me wrong, winning is a wonderful feeling and I love that our team is doing great, but right now I think you need to worry about involving the kids and teaching them how to play. The only way they can learn is actually playing the game. The coach is GREAT and he does help Tyler but I can't help but think he keeps him out because he isn't the strongest player. Is that wrong of me to think that way? Maybe, this is a good lesson for him. Not everyone is a great football player, or a great baseball player but you are a part of a team. I guess, if Tyler isn't bothered than I should just get over it and stop looking into it so much! And when he is in the game he really tries his hardest and loves playing! Ok...I'm done with my rant on football! What do you think?
He does look cute standing there on the sidelines is that uniform!

Art Accordian Book
I did this a long time ago but I just posted it to my CMK gallery! I forgot where I got the idea to shrink the kids artwork but it is such a great idea. I did an accordian book from JoAnn's and put some of my favorite drawings from Kate. I love this book...not to sound to braggy! I still have to add art to the back pages so the entire book is filled. Great way to save the art they make without haveing piles of big art projects!!

Ty's First Flag Football Game
Sunday was game day! Tyler's first ever Flag Football Game!!! They won the game 21 to 2!!! I don't know the first thing about football...ok, I know one thing, they score by making a touchdown! (Pretty good, huh?) So anyway, the game was so fun to watch! They are all so cute out there. (Oh wait, my husband said there is no CUTE in football!) So they were so cool! Tyler actually went 2 whole yards with the ball! Never thought I would ever get excited about 2 yards in football!
He was even picked to be one of the captains for the game. He got to pick heads or tails when they tossed the coin! (He picked heads) That is him in the #1 jersey in the picture. He's #1!!!!
This Sunday is his next game so I have to learn a little more before I go and watch! Don't want to seem like I am totally clueless!!!

Well, the first week of school is done! The picture is from the first day before we left for school!
It was a short week and it went by really fast! The first day and second day of school Kate didn't cry. The third and fourth? Well that's a different story! She decided it was time to make it a little more difficult! She is fine once she is in class but before class she just cries and tells me she doesn't want to go. I'm used to it...she did the same thing in Preschool! I just know that she if fine in class so that makes it a bit easier!
Tyler loved 3rd grade so far! He has a wonderful teacher so I am really looking forward to a great year. I'm hoping she can give Tyler the attention and help he needs to become a better student! We struggled last year and I am determined not to have the same issues!
Glad it's the weekend! The kids can relax and have enjoy two days off! Back on Monday so I'm hoping Kate is tear free next week!

First Day!
Well, she did it!!! Kate started Kindergarten today with NO tears!!! She was a little nervous when we got to the school but she went into class and sat down with now problems!!! Before we left, we peeked in her window she smiled and waved! So happy about that. You know...she didn't even want me to pick her up from school. She took the bus home. I was sad about that because I wanted to be there when she got out on the first day but she wasn't having it! She REALLY could not wait to ride that bus! When she got off the bus she was grinning ear to ear! She really thought she was a BIG girl!
Tyler loved his class too! He is in 3rd grade and when we got to school he went to stand with all his friends and didn't even kiss us goodbye! As a matter of fact, he didn't even say goodbye to me! My baby is getting cool. Makes me so so sad.
Anyway, they both had WONDERFUL days and they can't wait to go back tomorrow!
Oh, and I enjoyed my 3 hours of freedom!!!

The Band
Boone Staples, Lead Guitar
Boone is from North Richland Hills, Texas. He grew up listening to his dad's country music cassette tapes. Although he enjoys many styles of music, he admits there is nothing like tapping your boots to a sound of a twangin' Telecaster! Boone is the father of three sweet and energetic children, and the husband of one good-hearted woman. Boone is a fightin' Texas Aggie electrical engineer and a registered Professional Engineer in the great state of Texas. Interests aside from pickin' include fishing, woodworking, mathematics and tinkering in the garage!
Bob Hallgren, Bass
Bob Hallgren, bassist and groove master, joins Justin Mason with over 30 years of music history under his belt. His genre repertoire includes pop, rock, blues, funk, worship and country. As if that weren't enough, Bob is also a beloved husband, father of three, and five time grandpappy! While Bob's "right brain" enables him to rock with the best of 'em, his "left brain" moved him through multiple radiopharmaceutical companies and eventually landed him here in the DFW area as Cyclotron Facility Manager for UT Southwestern. When not managing cyclotron operations or rocking the stages, Bob enjoys traveling, cooking and spending quality time with family and friends. Fresh in from Chicago, Illinois, Bob is laying down his roots in Irving, TX and plans to stay a while!
Jordan O'Leary, Drums
Jordan has been playing drums for just over 18 years! At the age of 15, he joined a youth praise band that eventually became The J. Walkers, a very successful independent rock band that recorded 3 albums and played 150+ shows each year. At 19, Jordan was living his dream of playing music professionally, traveling across the United States with The J. Walkers. When the band dissolved in 2010, Jordan returned to Texas to pursue a degree in music and business management at the University of North Texas. He studied music theory, ear training, piano, and drums as well as various business curriculums. After graduating from UNT, Jordan continued his education at Berklee College of Music, studying music production and music business curriculum. Jordan works full time as a music producer and professional musician.
Adam Roberts, Keys/Guitar/Mandolin
Adam Roberts joins the band fresh off a short stint living on the west coast. During his youth he trained in classical piano, and played various instruments in jam bands throughout high school and college. Although many of these groups have moved on, he admits that music is one unique passion that keeps everyone in contact throughout the years. Originally from Philadelphia, PA, he has lived in 6 states over the past 7 years working in aerospace manufacturing. His travels introduced him to the many cultures this great country has to offer, coast-to-coast. He currently runs a real estate investing business with his girlfriend, Emily, in Fort Worth, Texas. His interests away from work and music include Penn State football, the outdoors, and piloting piston aircraft.
Vic Andrews, Fiddle/Harmonica
Vic began studying music at age 3 in a family of musicians. He grew up with a bow in his hands, and by the age of 17 had built a fruitful young career both at home and internationally as a budding solo performer.
As a first-generation American raised in rural Illinois, Vic elected to forego further music education & performance at age 18 in order to pursue a nomination to the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis MD. He graduated from USNA having earned a commission as an Officer in the United States Marine Corps. Serving proudly until 2016, and having carried a fiddle at every duty station from North Carolina to Bahrain, Vic came home to the U.S. to reside in Texas where he is thrilled to return to his first craft and contribute to the thriving music community in Texas.

text: I apologize in advance for this newb question, but Ive had my RV042 setup w/ 2 ISPs on the Load balancing setup for a few months and loving every minute of it... However the other day I began to run into problems When going to some sites that are ip restricted I get denied or logged out because my setup loves to 'switch' between IPs from both ISPS. The above issue is not that big of a deal, but the other day I picked up a VOIP setup for my business.. Plugged it into the setup I have here (RV042) everything seemed to work fine, until I started getting dropped calls & when making outbound calls I would hear nothing yet it would ring through on the other side and they too would hear nothing (tested this with my land line a few times) I thought about it for a bit and figured out it was the IP Switching causing this random issue. I switched the router over to the Smart Backup mode which utilizes one ISP until it fails... everything worked fine! My problem is I would very much like to use the LOAD Balancing setup, is there some way I can make one of the 2 ISPS the external IP so it does not switch between both? or is this something that is not possible? Again I apologize for the newb post, but any help or advice anyone could offer would be much appreciated. PS. I did try linksys support, not much luck there at all... I really am not sure they know what they are talking about or maybe I had a not so knowledgable rep respond to my tickets..

The era of total digitalization brings a raft of benefits for companies operating within traditional industrial sectors
Transformational changes are sweeping the industrial landscape, and the organizations that can be agile and bold enough to grasp these business opportunities stand to be the biggest winners.
Industrial businesses keep discovering new techniques to reach and serve their end-customers in meaningful ways. Equipment and facilities provide increasing amounts of sensor-based intelligence, which helps companies to deliver the right services for whole equipment life cycle, and to better understand their customers and the actual created value. At the same time they develop their overall efficiency, as well as environmental and social sustainability. Affecto guides clients through the maze by mastering data, instrumentation, automation, data science and collaboration.
For energy & utilities companies the environment is becoming more versatile and complex. Through fact based precise and up-to-date insights we can bring complete transparency, which aids the performance and profitability to the next level. As an example, our scalable cloud computing based Battery big data platform enables the companies to analyze their customers' usage patterns for optimizing operations and purchases more accurately and faster than ever before.
Our expertise ranges from providing an end-to-end solution for running assembly logistics to replacing physical sensors in machinery by soft sensors. This is based on IT system knowledge as well as the application of advanced algorithms and automation. The ability to add new functionality or automate operations for existing equipment and facilities without physical access can lower production costs significantly – and furthermore help to gain new customers.

Oh, that bag!
Beautiful jacket and bag!!!!!!
Mmm... well-worn leather bag
Heavenly bag.
Made perfect by that pink undershirt. Wonderful. Great bag as well.
great look...i like this Jacket
I like big bags and I can not lie!
Lovely bag!
I love the colour decision.
That's what I'm thinking about right now. + Trying to combine knited ethno wear with office style.
I love this bag...
I love the Scandinavian style designs on knits, got a great one from Oslo some years ago.
The colours look great, I would not combine gray and khaki, he has done it superbly.
L-O-V-E the bag! Knitted sweaters and heavy knit wooljackets are the big thing here in Oslo this season, and there's no wonder why, when you see a perfect example like this. Also love the khaki chinos.
Rue Montmartre?
I love the print. =)
But the shoes..., such a disapointment on an otherwise flawless outfit.
only wish the knit was one of them oversized ones and the rest of the outfit a bit more subtle and better coordinated with the materials, color and fit.
Great sweater. What's in the bag?
Nice knit and the bag would fit a woman too.
This is how I want my boyfriend to dress ;)
Stylish but relaxed.
Loving that bag! Where can I get that bag?..
oppps..haha took a better look and realized what bag it was..having it opened and lovingly used changed its shape..adoring it more!
I think he wears kolor.
kolor is the most interesting men's brand in Japan.
I can see, October coming :)
I love your blog!!
I went to milano next week, I hope to find u!!! XXDDDDD
where can I get this bag?
Can't see the jacket for that bag!! Love it.
major bag envy!
I enjoy seeing the jacket and other color layers, but what's with the shoes? To my eye, they interrupt the look, both in color and style.
I love his bag!
Hi, is it a Hermes bag?
just the right look for this season!
wow, that jacket is simply too cool to be true! and i love the bag- i'd want that as a woman. The sneakers are very cool too. This guy has everything right going on for him!
This picture is about that BAG!
I'll take two.
This guy is very chic, but I'm with EVERYONE else. What kind of bag is that, and where can I get one?
Does anyone know?
The bag is Mulberry Piccadilly. They have a smaller version called Bayswater for women.
Yes, the jacket is Kolor:
My Husband Liked his bag. He said he wanted one.
He had such a nice style that didn't look over worked.
And I also Loved that bag, but the knitted jacked was nice to! If someone knows were it's from, I would be grateful.
Ohhhh my gosh
That bag is Mulberry
The bag is Mulberry. I think it is the larger version of the Bayswater.
Thanks for the nice interview, it is online now, lovely greetings, Kathrin www.twoforfashion.de
Flawless. His proportions and layering are superb and of course, love the kicks.
I love that jacket and kolor!!!I think who likes kolor love Maison Martin Margiela.
Everything about this guy is right! Amazing sweater, awesome bag, cool shoes—all around success story. What a great photo find!
I have to get myself a Mulberry bag then. Can anyone lend me some money?
I think the Puma's go surprisingly well with the overall look. If I didn't see his shoes in the pic, I would have said some kind of oxford shoe or leather boot. But the Puma's are an odd but good choice.
I LOVE knit jackets. They offer some structure and are very comfortable. Has anyone seen the red knit blazer at Club Monaco this season? It's CUTE. It's a solid, but I love this patterned one.
the knit is alexander mcqueen not kolor i believe- i bought the scarf in the same pattern
The bag has me too. The weather looks warm there. He looks very cozy.
where or where did he get that bag?
I love this blog, like so many others. Wrote about it on my own blog yesterday! Check it out at http://frankiskye.blogspot.com/.
Oh I just hate his shoes!! They look grubby and for a man with such clear fashion sense there is simply no excuse.
Show it close-up. I want to see that pattern -- wait, let me get my graph paper...
I guess I'm the lone dissenter here. I like the bag, and I admire the jacket as a piece in and of itself, but the outfit just doesn't work for me. The jacket looks too short to me, and the tapered khaki chinos are just meh. Honestly, if this wasn't worn by a young good looking guy in Paris with an expensive bag, it would look like an average midwestern grandpa (i.e., my dad). Sorry!
Nice jacket.
A Visitor
P.S. I check like, every day for new pics!
blog friends
cool thesartorialist.blog
i like
LOVE the Bag!
He looks so good with that knit jacket! And of course, the bag's great too :)
Love the picture!
Now THAT'S bringin' home the Birkin (except that it's a big Mulberry Bayswater...)
i really love the whole outfit, especially the jacket!
That bag is from Mulberry..probably tons of ppl have already said it but just in case...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure Club Monaco has a bag really similar to that!
I thonl that bag is like mine, a Mulberry.
the knit jacket is OK, but the leather bag is the star.
i. love. that. bag.
and a man who can pull of pants and a sneaker.
He looks wonderful! I don't like the sneakers and I think he could look a little cleaner at the top, but somehow the whole works. And of course, that freaking bag, good Lord!
Yay ,it's Jason Leung! He's a nice guy too...
Nice cardi!
it really is sad that your pictures on style.com can't be seen bigger. could you do something about this?
the bag is fascinating..
where can I find this type vintage bag?
I suppose it's Mulberry producing that bag...
He looks so good!
I love your blog and i look every day.
The styles from the street...amazing!
I'm another dissenter. This doesn't warrant a second look. Jacket's too tight, everything else too rumpled and boring. The sneaks really bring this down.
I want that bag!
I like the construction of this knit jacket but not the pattern. In fact I am in the middle of making a knit jacket for myself for this season with some elaborate stitching design, but all in one color.
I would eat ramen to have that bag!
I have this bag in denim and I can't wait til it it tattered and weathered from years of good use
the bag looks like my Bayberry, Bayswater.
that jacket is fantastic.
That sweater marks the season perfectly. And the bag is gorgeous.
Aspen revisited! That bag is fire and so is his posture, good find sart.
can someone tell me where i can get those shoes they look like pumas but i never seen them before.
Knitted Blazer! That's great! Almost like my new 80s music blog :) Check it out at http://dailyeighties.blogspot.com
proper and relaxed.
thumbs up!
He looks relaxed, but everything fits nicely. Great shoes and bag.
Another instance where I prefer a man's bag for myself.
The kicks kill the outfit. Maybe some simple penny loafers, or boots?
you're right, the knit jacket looks like kolor but at first it reminded me of the iisli women's line knit blazers as well. what a great look!
He is very well dressed, but also very handsome. Where I can I find that kind of man in real life...
Nice Post.
Why is everyone so amazed by the bag? It's true, it's a nice bag. It's Mulberry and it's been around forever!!
The only thing is that it's all leather and it's a bit heavy to cary around all day. I heard that they're making their new bags in thinner, lighter leathers. Hope they're making this model in lighter leather as well as i've given up carrying mine for some time now...
My new favorite is the new Pierre Hardy men's bag...
By the way, I LOVE the jacket!!! Where's it from? Comme des garcons?
you can find that bag, BAYSWATER, at Mulberry Store. it's unisex but too heavy for women
It´s a Mulberry bag, the large bayswater
love the bag!!!
Great pic, Sart. I love the knit jacket on this young chap. I have seen an Orvis cardigan sweater that looks almost identical to this. I do not care for the bag, and the white "sneakers" are an abomination, IMO. Otherwise, this is a nice look.
i personally like the khaki knit color and texture combination. pink shirt underneath, perfect. Where can i find a knit jacket like that?
he looks wonderful not like he's trying too hard to "be" something he's not.
that bag is great, and it looks like he uses it everyday.
I like the fact he is wearing trainers too.
love the combination of gray and nude/beige colors.
great classic bag (looks like Hermes)
This is how people should look when they are popping out on a sunday morning to get coffee. I would prefer boots, maybe brown suede chukka's or some moccasin boots, but those are obvious choices which in some ways take away from the casual simplicity of this look.
Down to earth look. Not planned though. THATS THE WAY TO GO NOT FAKE IT. Nice sweater but it would have more of an impact if paired with a black leather converse and a black steel watch.
Having something constant is my formula.
my first art blog come check it out..
Oh dear me! That bag made me gasp (and moan) out loud!
oh dear me -- that bag!! I gasped (and moaned) out loud when I saw that bag!
www.mulberry.com ... I think it is a Picadilly and not a Large Basywater.
Rumour has it that Mulberry is launching a US website soon. Can't wait!
Where can I get that bag???
Love that Mulberry bag!
It looks so effortless, but still very put together...
LOVE it =)
I love the bag...
I'd like that bag to go,please!
is a man allowed to carry a hermes birkin bag? or would he be shot down?? please comment!
that is mulberry, no birkin
It's a (delicious) Mulberry Piccadilly. Although you can't buy it like that, you have to work for that lovely vintage feel. I love how subtle Mulberry are... such confidence in design.
This is in my top five looks for men in The Sartorialist. The fair-isles type jacket/cardigan fits him beautifully and the salmon colored t-shirt and charcoal button down is a great combination. Really makes the reddish colors in the jacket stand out. The Mulberry bag is so classy and contrast nicely with this casual look. I'd like to see what else is in his closet.
hey... really nice jacket...
its accounting from Switzerland...
hmmm.. lol
it all flows perfectly...love the bag

L.B.P.D. Schedules Checkpoint for Impaired and Unlicensed Drivers
2011-05-13 · By Editor
The Long Beach Police Department will be conducting a driving under the influence/driver's license checkpoint on Saturday, May 14, 2011, from 6:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m., in north Long Beach.
In an effort to reduce the number of persons killed and injured in alcohol involved crashes, D.U.I. checkpoints are conducted to identify offenders and get them off the street, as well as to educate the public on the dangers of impaired driving and to deter people from driving while under the influence.
All too often, members of our community are senselessly injured or killed on local roadways by impaired drivers. This D.U.I./driver's license checkpoint is an effort to reduce those tragedies, ensure drivers have a valid driver's license, and increase awareness of the dangers of impaired driving, all while encouraging sober designated drivers.
A D.U.I. checkpoint is a proven effective method for achieving these goals. By publicizing these enforcement and education efforts, the Long Beach Police Department believes motorists can be deterred from drinking and driving. Traffic volume and weather permitting, all vehicles may be checked and drivers who are under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs will be arrested. Our objective is to send a clear message to those who are considering driving a motor vehicle after consuming alcohol and/or drugs – Drunk Driving, Over the Limit, Under Arrest. The public is encouraged to help keep roadways safe by calling 9-1-1 if they see a suspected impaired driver.
Funding for this operation is provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. For further information please contact Long Beach Police Department Traffic Enforcement Section Sergeant Douglas Bender at (562) 570-7484.

There is no doubt that public sympathy will lie with Baroda all-rounder Yusuf Pathan for his doping-related ban, but it is hard to appreciate Board of Control for Cricket in India's (BCCI) procedures in handling the case. Its inexperience comes through tellingly in the order that it has made public, suggesting that it must hand over the responsibility to National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA).
For, there are some holes in the BCCI order imposing the penalty on the cricketer. Take, for instance, the decision to backdate the commencement of the ban to 15 August, 2017. Of course, the BCCI could use the provisions in its anti-doping rules to backdate the ban to start even to the day the sample was collected. There appears to be no reasoned logic for such a decision.
In its eagerness to find a five-month window that would not affect his cricket, it chose August 15 as the start date, overlooking the fact that he had played two Ranji Trophy games in October. All this could have been avoided, had the BCCI been prompt in handling the case when NDTL reported a dope positive. The order does not make it clear why the player was notified of his ADRV only on October 28, more than six months after it became aware of the result.
Nor is there an explanation why it took the BCCI more than two and a half months to announce its decision, especially since the player admitted his ADRV, acceded to the consequences specified by BCCI and waived his right to a hearing before an Anti-Doping Tribunal? Come to think of it, the BCCI decision was made public a mere six days before the ban was scheduled to end.
A reading of the order will reveal some important facts that suggest that BCCI, as the Dope Control Authority, may not have been as careful in investigating the case as is necessary. Take, for example, BCCI's admission that it suggested to the player that he could apply for a retroactive Therapeutic Exemption (TUE) if he suffered from asthma.
It is not the BCCI's case, as the DCA, to make such a suggestion. Of course, as the organisation running the sport in the country, BCCI needs to educate all players about anti-doping but it is unethical " and against the spirit of anti-doping " for the DCA to suggest a player charged with an ADRV to try and secure a retroactive TUE.
The other thing that stands out is that while witness testimonies and evidence were presented to BCCI, the most crucial piece of evidence " the bottle of cough syrup " was not presented. Similarly, the hotel personnel who bought the medicine was not produced as witness. Neither Pathan nor team manager Dev Jadhav recalls the name of the cough syrup secured.
For a player who has been tested before, it is strange that he (and the team physiotherapist Sudip Banerjee he authorised to fill the Dope Control Form) did not remember to list the names of all medicines that the hotel's medical consultant Dr Anil Kumar prescribed him, listing only a drug that tackles bacterial infection and a paracetamol tablet used to control cold and flu symptoms.
Its also worth noting that the medicine in question appears to have been sold and bought without cash memos " and this in an era when the BCCI and its state units, including the Baroda Cricket Association would have to account for every rupee spent.
What's more, the player, while not remembering the name of the cough syrup, submitted that he could have been give Bro Zeet instead of Zeet Expectorant. The BCCI order says that the player established that at least one chemist in the Karol Bagh hotel's vicinity stocks Bro Zeet. But how does that mean that it was indeed Bro Zeet that was procured?
There are a couple of other interesting fallacies that the BCCI order subscribes to.
There is a popular misconception that all substances prohibited by WADA are performance enhancing. For the BCCI, as the DCA, to spread that misconception does not augur well and is not in keeping with its stated "zero-tolerance" approach against doping. Similarly, BCCI must be aware that negative results of earlier tests should bear no relevance in a case.
If it needs any reminding, Lance Armstrong was tested hundreds of times and never produced a positive test. It is typical of those who fail tests to cite earlier clean chits, but for a dope control agency to mention in its order that a player has been tested five times and no adverse analytical finding has been reported suggests that the order was written by a defence lawyer.
At the moment, NADA can only watch from the sidelines and wait for the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) to insist on the ICC that BCCI comes under its purview. If WADA has said that the Yusuf Pathan case is an ongoing one, it is perhaps because it may not have got BCCI's order yet.
This is the time for WADA to tell BCCI to get its anti-doping campaign in order.

That scary clown from 'It', Edward Scissorhands, the evil doll Chuckie, that scene from 'Hannibal' when Anthony Hopkins ate that dudes brain, and when Ben Stiller got his scrotum caught in his zipper in 'There's Something About Mary'.
All these movies made me hide under my blanket as I tried to sleep at night - except the scene from 'There's Something About Mary', that just made me grab my balls in a protective manner as I tried to sleep.
So which movies gave you nightmares when you were a kid?
Most Helpful Guy
X-Files, but I really liked watching them when I was little with the lights on, re-watched some of those old VHS episodes. I was scared of toilets for a long time, because one was of this half-worm/half-man monster that lived in sewers (we weren't even connected to a sewer, it was a septic, but I didn't know any of that stuff back then). Also, Ernest scared stupid I was terrified of Trolls, and toilets/bathrooms, and now that I am grown I am still leery of trolls, just now it is internet trolls. Also I became more interested in Brussels sprouts... even though I still thought they were gross, and still do! Funny how many people are freaked by clowns, because of IT and Killer Clowns from Outer Space, because when I was little I actually thought killer clowns from outer space was funny and fun, I even used to joke with my father about being like the little evil clown in the scene where a biker asks him "whata ya gonna do, knock my block off?" and the little clown nodding and saying "mhm" right before he knocks his head off and it lands in a trash can.
Damn! That's a lot of nightmares!

The Men of March: A Season Inside the Lives of College Basketball Coaches is a one-of-a kind look at what it means, and what it takes to be a head coach in the college arena of the new millennium. Granted extensive access to the locker rooms, practices, offices, sidelines and homes of four of the nations leading coaches and their programs (Mike Brey, Notre Dame; Steve Lavin, UCLA; Bill Self, Illinois and Steve Alford, Iowa), the author lays bare the forces that make coaches tick. From upset losses and recruiting wars, to the mounting frenzy of March Madness and the fierce rivalries played out through long winters under the brightest, hottest spotlight in college sports, readers gain a true respect for men who choose, and excel at, this roller coaster ride profession. With candid comments from over fifty college coaches, including Lute Olson, Roy Williams and John Chaney, in addition to perspectives from Dick Vitale, John Wooden, John Feinstein and many others, The Men of March provides an in-depth look at some of the major issues facing coaches in the game today. Among the many considerations of the college basketball pressure cooker are recruiting, graduation rates, hirings and firings, media relations and the influence of volatile social issues such as race and religion on the game's participants and leaders.
Brian Curtis, an award-winning sports broadcaster, was most recently a sports reporter for Fox Sports Net based in Los Angeles doing features and game reports for The Regional Sports Report and The National Sports Report, primarily covering college basketball including the PAC 10, WAC and Big Sky conferences. In addition to his extensive sports broadcasting experience on network and local television, Curtis has coached at the high school and college levels and has worked in the athletic departments at UVA, UD and OU. He resides in Los Angeles, California.

Early Planting
Last weekend I headed up to the farmhouse for my annual ritual in optimism: the planting of the sweet peas. I'd never really thought much about sweet peas until a few years ago when Sweet Pea Gardens set up shop just down the road. I tend to pick my flowers based on emotional memory - the petunias planted by the driveway of my childhood home in upstate New York, the wisteria cascading over a stone wall in the French Loire Valley, the intoxicating scent of orange blossoms that marked the arrival of spring in Tucson.
When I finally "grew up" (can we ever make that claim?) and got to create my own garden, my subconscious pushed me toward plants that would evoke those emotional memories. Maine's coastal climate isn't particularly friendly to orange trees, so I've had to look elsewhere for intoxicating fragrance. One winter, Sweet Pea Gardens owner Sue Keating gave a talk and mentioned that our particular climate may be lousy for lots of other plants, but it happened to be particularly perfect for sweet peas.
So I dutifully followed her instructions and planted sweet peas, putting them into the ground the very minute it had thawed, carefully tending them and waiting, waiting, waiting to see what happened. My patience paid off with a spectacular harvest of extraordinarily, delicate and fragrant blooms.
The first year I planted sweet peas was in 2006, the same year I was working on my first book. That summer I set up operations on the porch, working from a heavy old wooden table my great aunt had tucked away in the barn.
Sweet peas need to be picked very day in order to keep them from going to seed, so every morning before sitting down to write, I'd go out into the garden with my old enamel bucket and pick new flowers. The bucket would sit on my table and perfume my every thought for the duration of the day.
The next summer I was once again out on that porch working away on another book that, quite thankfully, got scrapped at the last minute in favor of my wool book -- which kept me out on the porch for another summer of sweet peas. More summers, more peas, more writing, the fruits of which you'll see this fall.
Without realizing it, I've created a rich new emotional memory around sweet peas. I can't imagine a summer without them -- and I can't imagine a bucket of sweet peas without feeling like I should be writing a book. Now that the seeds have been sown, I shall sit back and see what the summer brings.

I have always loved sweet peas but haven't really tried growing them. Is there anything I should know? You plant from seed, right? And need trellis? Hmmm....will the deer eat them. I can put them inside the fenced garden. I'm gonna run out tomorrow and get started!

I'm wondering if deer will eat them, too.... off to google. Thanks for the idea!

They do best when planted from seed as early as humanly possible - if it's too late in the season, get some seedlings and hope for the best. (Sweet peas aren't totally fond of being transplanted.) They like very rich soil and yes, definitely a trellis. I use chicken wire. Deer have never touched my sweet peas - they're actually poisonous. Good luck!

Topic DescriptionSpecific Challenge:
Europe's strategic and geopolitical environment is evolving rapidly, will always be an area of change, and in a manner that increasingly raises concerns. In recent years, violent conflicts have agitated the planet, many of them located in Europe's immediate neighbouring regions. These developments take place at a time when global geopolitics is undergoing long-term transformations challenging the traditional predominance of the West, while policies of economic austerity oblige EU Member States to manage scarce resources more effectively. These trends seriously challenge the Union's capacity for guaranteeing its citizens' security - one of its principal raisons d'être - while also jeopardizing its aspiration of promoting European values and interests abroad. In order to evaluate and promote its preparedness for playing its role as an effective security provider, to prevent escalation, to manage and understand risks and mitigation strategies for peace beyond its borders, the EU needs to understand the implications of recent global developments and assess them against its own capacities and willingness to make synergetic use of them.Scope:
The research to address this challenge should focus on one or two dimensions that have to be comprehensively addressed. The research may also cover other issues relevant for addressing the specific challenge.
1) Recent global geopolitical developments and their implications for the European Union
Research under this dimension should adopt a comprehensive understanding of security and explore uncertainty. Based on this, it should identify and investigate long-standing and novel - global and regional - external risks facing the EU and its Member States, in connection with ongoing initiatives and programmes for risk identification and early warning. Crises in its neighbourhood (in particular East Europe and the southern Mediterranean), such as the rise of radical Islamic groups exemplified by the expansion of the "Islamic State" in Syria and Iraq, but also conflicts and risks in other regions of the world such as in South Asia (e.g. Afghanistan) and Sub-Saharan Africa (e.g. Mali) should be examined. Research should identify the most pressing risks and areas of uncertainty and unravel the causes, expressions and security-relevant consequences of such instable contexts.
It should examine possible inter-linkages between various geographically limited conflict situations as well as their embeddedness into regional and overarching global geopolitical developments. This necessitates a sound understanding of the political, socioeconomic, cultural and military contexts in which patterns of insecurity and uncertainty emerge, also from a historical and philosophical perspective. An inventory of contemporary risks should form the basis for identifying their implications for Europe and its security needs. Research should examine how potential risks, mitigation strategies and opportunities are perceived, and how they can, do and even should become part of novel approaches and policies in the EU, its Member States and its partners in geostrategic matters. It should investigate how the EU, its Member States and other relevant partners can act to better anticipate, prevent and respond to the identified risks, mitigation strategies and opportunities, and develop scenarios on possible EU activities using a range of policy actions and instruments, including diplomatic, economic, civilian and, if needed, military means.
2) European Union's preparedness for managing risks and opportunities, fostering peace in a crisis-ridden context
Research under this dimension should comprehensively examine the European Union's and its Member States' willingness, capacities, instruments and channels for anticipating and responding to a large array of external threats. It should contrast the EU's legal basis for external security policies, including risk analysis and management, conflict prevention and resolution, post-conflict management and peace-building, to the actual practice, both prior to and after the onset of the economic and financial crises. Analyses should draw on comparative case studies from the EU's handling of various conflicts and crises (including humanitarian ones) across the globe. Research should develop criteria for effective security cooperation in the EU, distinguishing between objectives and instruments, whether military or non-military, and contribute to the ongoing development of early-warning systems to identify emerging risks. It should also identify the political, socio-economic, technological and cultural conditions that enable or hinder the emergence of effective security cooperation in the EU. Based on this evidence, research should develop information sharing and decision support systems that facilitate cooperation, identify gaps and align the interests of diverse actors towards effective EU security policies, especially in the framework of its Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP). It should also provide insights on whether and how the EU can work synergistically together with individual third countries or international institutions like NATO.
The Commission considers that proposals requesting a contribution from the EU in the order of EUR 5 million would allow this specific challenge to be addressed appropriately. This does not preclude submission and selection of proposals requesting other amounts.Expected Impact:
Research under this topic will lead to an up-to-date appraisal of global and regional risks and, as such, of Europe's evolving security agenda in the light of recent geopolitical developments affecting its neighbouring regions (in particular East Europe and the southern Mediterranean), and the entire globe. It will generate critical and forward-looking evidence of Europe's preparedness for effectively facing these threats, guaranteeing its citizens' security while managing risks and fostering peace abroad. Based on this evidence, it will provide recommendations on how to improve the EU's effectiveness as a domestic and global security provider.Cross-cutting Priorities:
International cooperation
Socio-economic science and humanities

- Open access must be granted to all scientific publications resulting from Horizon 2020 actions.
Where relevant, proposals should also provide information on how the participants will manage the research data generated and/or collected during the project, such as details on what types of data the project will generate, whether and how this data will be exploited or made accessible for verification and re-use, and how it will be curated and preserved.
Open access to research data
The Open Research Data Pilot has been extended to cover all Horizon 2020 topics for which the submission is opened on 26 July 2016 or later. Projects funded under this topic will therefore by default provide open access to the research data they generate, except if they decide to opt-out under the conditions described in annex L of the Work Programme. Projects can opt-out at any stage, that is both before and after the grant signature.
Note that the evaluation phase proposals will not be evaluated more favourably because they plan to open or share their data, and will not be penalised for opting out.
Open research data sharing applies to the data needed to validate the results presented in scientific publications. Additionally, projects can choose to make other data available open access and need to describe their approach in a Data Management Plan.
- Projects need to create a Data Management Plan (DMP), except if they opt-out of making their research data open access. A first version of the DMP must be provided as an early deliverable within six months of the project and should be updated during the project as appropriate. The Commission already provides guidance documents, including a template for DMPs.
- Eligibility of costs: costs related to data management and data sharing are eligible for reimbursement during the project duration.
The legal requirements for projects participating in this pilot are in the article 29.3 of the Model Grant Agreement.

Read this tip to make your life smarter, better, faster and wiser. LifeTips is the place to go when you need to know about Painting and other Home Improvement topics.
There are two basic ways to apply paint. With a brush and a roller. The brush is used to apply paint around the edges of what you are painting. For example walls, ceilings, and baseboards. The size of the brush depends on the detail of what your painting and the area. There are latex brushes and oil brushes. Rollers come in different sizes from nine inches to three inches. How thick the pile is on a roller is called the nap. The thicker the nap the rougher the finish will be.

Ebène, Mauritius (PANA) – Malagasy President Hery Rajaonarimampianina on Thursday opened a two-day Indian Ocean Food Security Sponsors Conference in Antananarivo suggesting a "win-win partnership" centered on increased production as the answer to the nutritional challenge facing island nations in the region.
According to sources close to the Indian Ocean Commission (IOC) in Mauritius,at least 150 participants are attending the regional meeting organized by the IOC in partnership with the government of Madagascar.
The sources said that the meeting is centred on meeting concrete objectives.
In a communiqué issued here, the IOC said "this huge mobilization of participants illustrates the interest aroused by the restart of agricultural and fish production projects, as well as their marketing and training."
Recalling the declaration of the Fourth Summit of Heads of State and Government of the IOC, held in August 2014, Rajaonarimampianina said that the economic revival of Madagascar depends on food security in the Indian Ocean region.
Remaining passive would be dramatic for the human capital of the country, he warned.
"We did not want to launch another appeal for international generosity. We propose a contract with our sponsors," IOC Secretary General Jean-Claude de l'Estrac said.
The second day of the meeting will be dedicated to examination of ten concrete projects intended to meet the challenges of giving the agricultural and fish production sectors of Madagascar the necessary push in order to end food and nutritional insecurity, and to create conditions for food self-reliance by restoring Madagascar's reputation as a "granary of the Indian Ocean."
De l'Estrac said that an "agreement for a regional food security programme of the IOC to be funded to the tune of 18 million euros under the 11th European Development Fund will be signed on 4 June 2015 in Brussels."
