Only 96 Cardigans Created
This exact version will not be made again
Why We Made It
We created a design that goes perfectly with all our sleeveless dresses and skirts. While this isn't a jacket, it's great for providing that extra layer of warmth. No reason she shouldn't enjoy our clothing all year round.
- Girls pink cardigan made from soft jersey fabric. It will make any outfit pop!
- Spaghetti strap ties for easy closure, and they also look great just loose and open.
- Gathered back detail for a stylish and flattering look in the back.
- Only 2 seams for the sleeves, virtually seamless!
- Merrow edge hems on the jacket and sleeves.
- Super soft fabric.
- Machine washable.
- Polyester blend
"She who wears the Artisan Cardigan shall possess magical, artistic powers."
This inscription was carved over the threshold leading into the seamstresses quarters of the Caernarfon Castle, in what is now the United Kingdom. It is there that the first Artisan Cardigan was created, and the chamber is oft cited as the Birthplace of Artistic Greatness.
Like you, I was dubious of such a claim. But now, as I scroll through the historical record, I see that such a claim is not only possible, it is entirely likely. What I am going to say will most likely shock you. If you are standing up, sit down. If you are sitting down, lie down. If you're lying down, dig a hole 100 feet deep, and carefully lower yourself into it.
It has come to my attention that previous wearers of the Artisan Cardigan include several world-renowned artists and authors… none of whom had any creative talent before donning this jacket. Frida Kahlo, Georgia O'Keeffe, Charlotte Bronte, Sylvia Plath, Maya Angelou … all talentless hacks before wearing the Artisan Cardigan.
Do you require further proof? Here it is: At this moment, I am wearing an Artisan Cardigan and my mind is racing with creativity. Yet before I put it on, I would've never had the ingenuity or guile to fabricate such a preposterous story. It really works!

Calaveras Literarias
We made Calaveras Literarias on a person of our choice real or fictional. Calaveras Literarias are stories about how someone died with a skeleton to represent it in some way. I did my calavera on the hockey player Sidney Crosby. In my story I say how no one likes him and how he is a big crybaby. After the Pittsburg penguins win Stanley Cup Final Mr Crosby tries to lift the Stanley Cup over his head but there is an accident. He drops the trophy on his head and dies. He is now a hockey player for the team of the dead.
El Projecto de Frida
For this project, we read a book on Frida Khalo describing the pain she went through in her life. After we read the book we wrote biographies and made paintings with Frida Khalo's style. We got to choose anyone we wanted and I John Lennon and to base my picture off of her painting called "Self-Portrait with Cropped Hair."
Receta de Croquetas de Papa y Mozzarella
In Spanish we had to choose a recipe for a Spanish Tapa after that we had to translate the ingredients and steps necessary to make the recipe. Next we had to make our recipe that we chose and make a video while saying the ingredients and the steps in Spanish. The dish I chose was Potato and mozzarella Croquettes.

Sioen (39) is a singer-songwriter from Belgium. When he was 9 years old he started to play classical music influenced by his father, who is a music teacher. As a teenager he learned to play flamenco, African and Cuban percussion and performed as a singer in a rock band. Pushed by the enthusiasm of the fans, he started to write his own song son the piano to perform his 1st concert as a solo artist in September 2000.

He played all the big venues and festivals (ex. 3 times Rock Werchter). With his band he toured all over Europe, United States, South Africa, China, Malaysia, Indonesia, Japan & South Korea.
Sioen's music is much appreciated in Asia. In Indonesia his song 'Cruisin' became a hit song (even in karaoke machines) and the same song was used for a tv commercial in South Korea, starring famous American actress Gwyneth Paltrow. He played over 40 shows in South Korea, from the big Pentaport Festival to the Jecheon International Film and Music Festival, in theaters and clubs. In 2016 he recorded a collaboration album called 'Omniverse', together with 5 other Korean musicians like Sunwoo Jung-Ah.
Sioen likes to combine different genres to create original compositions: 'singer-songwriting with adventurous arrangements'. He collaborated with jazz legend Toots Thielemans & Belgian Congolese singer Marie Daulne (Zap Mama), recorded an album in Johannesburg with South African musicians (Calling up Soweto), collaborated with conductor Dirk Brossé and jazz pianist Jef Neve to compose 'Distortion: a Hymn of Liberty' in remembrance of World War I. In November 2017 they performed together at the United Nations in New York.
Off stage, he composes scores for tv seriesand movies. (Marsman, Amigo's, Team Spirit II, …) and organizes the yearly Street Art Piano Festival '123-piano' in his hometown Ghent. He is also an activist and co-organized the 0110-Concerts Against Racism (2006) and 'Plastic Attack' (2018), to fight the use of plastic, for which he was mentioned as 'Man Of The Year 2018' in the Belgian Knack Magazine.
Sioen is also part of the band 'De Piepkes' with blues guitarist Roland Van Campenh out, Pieter-Jan De Smet & illustrator Sarah Yu Zeebroek. Together they write and perform music for children. They recorded 2 albums & created an opera for children 'Operaar Poephaar' (2019).
At the moment Sioen is working on a musical cross-over project on harpsichord and electronic music with visuals of paintings by artist Koen van den Broek: 'Chords & Cracks'. He is also on tour with South African musicians performing 'Sioen plays Graceland', the legendary album by Paul Simon, and this year he will release a new solo album 'Messages of Cheer & Comfort' in 2019.

Jan is a legendary instrumentalist in Belgium, he has played with a lot of big Belgian bands like Arsenal, Hooverphonic, … and his own band Savalas.
Mattias De Craene
Matthias De Craene is known as the saxophonist of the jazz band Nordmann and his own band MDC III: jazz, pop andfree improvisation offer sporadic and tenuous footing in a rhythmical journey.

Box Office Wrap Up: Weak Predator Tops Strong Weekend.
A lackluster start for The Predator couldn't slay the box office as September continues to surge.
It was another strong weekend in September led by an R-rated movie. That was the good news. The bad news for Fox is that their latest addition to the Predator franchise underwhelmed both critically and financially. It was a difficult weekend to explain: the top movie did abysmally and few of the new releases really delivered big numbers, but it was a strong earnings weekend compared to historical totals.
This Week in Box Office History.
As we stated, the box office itself was healthy. It was down 10% from last week and 4% from last year, but both of those numbers were quite high because IT and The Nun had huge premiers in the beginning of September. The overall take of 107 million dollars is phenomenal for September, and 2018 lags just behind 2017's pace for highest earnings in September in sales to date. We should be looking at a second bumper year for fall ticket sales.
The mind boggling part of this rosy picture is that so many of the big movies and new releases did quite poorly. Every new release besides A Simple Favor was under early estimates and several were vying for spots on the top 100 worst opening weekends in their respective categories. The big earners from last week also saw pretty big declines. A big first week in September may have softened the blow on what could have been a pretty grim weekend. There was just more room to fall and absorb the losses.
Top Film Last Year: IT.
Top Film Last Decade: Burn After Reading.
Top Three.
The Predator was an unhappy champion. Shane Black's return to the franchise was beaten up by critics and had one of the worst debuts for a live action film that showed in more than 4000 theaters. At just 24 million dollars, The Predator opened at about the same mark as Predators (2010) and Alien Versus Predator (2004). That more than anything should make studios cautious about further big budget sequels in a franchise that seems tapped out.
Second place was another bad omen that apparently didn't effect the box office: The Nun fell 66% in revenue in its second week. The take of 18 million preserved second place but was quite a bit steeper than fellow Conjuring spin-offs Annabelle and Annabelle: Creation. The film has taken an impressive 88 million against a 22 million dollar budget.
Third place rested with A Simple Favor. This lightly advertised thriller seems to have resonated as it took in 16 million in its debut weekend. This is a strong start for a film in the genre. The initial take is one of Blake Lively's best openings…though it still doesn't top her biggest opening weekends : Green Lantern!
Other Films.
White Boy Rick premiered in fourth place. The take of just under 9 million was a touch lower than early estimates, but not quite disastrous given the 28 million dollar budget.
The fourth wide release, Unbroken: Path to Redemption, just hung on to the top ten in the final spot. The faith based follow up to the first Unbroken failed to live up to its predecessor. It took in just 2.2 million dollars, compared to the 30 million dollars that 2014's Unbroken delivered.

time we married two brothers, and became best friends! Now we share
everything from our love of Little House on the Prairie to children's
ages (we both have four year old girls and 1 1/2 year old boys, so we share parenting advice all the time). We especially love all things crafty and fun, and constantly
are sharing ideas for sewing, crochet, cooking, refashioning, style, gardening…you
name it and we've probably tried it!
so excited today to be guest posting for Megan here at Homemade Ginger! We thought today we'd share a tutorial with
you all for how to make this adorable dress out of an over sized maxi skirt:
I (Jessica) had this maxi skirt from forever ago, it came with us in my fabric stash when we moved to Idaho from Washington State. I loved the pattern and fabric, but there was no way it was ever going to fit me. It was huge! Seriously, I could have made a maxi dress out of just that one skirt! I could hold it up under my armpits and it would still reach my toes, look:
The problem was that as a maxi dress it would have been super overwhelming with all that pattern. Not only that but it was just a hair too short to reach my feet as a full maxi dress. I am super picky about how I like my maxi's to fit, and this wasn't it. So it sat in my stash until one day, inspiration hit!
And voila, this dress was born!
And I'm going to show you what I did to make it! It's pretty simple, but kind of hard to explain without a few pics as visual aid. Here we go!
First, I measured myself from my shoulders to just above my knees where I wanted the dress's hem to hit. Then I cut off the top of the maxi dress to match that measurement. This will become the new "top" of the dress, and you'll use the original hem as your new hem:
Then out of my new "top" of the dress, I cut a basic neckline and sloped the shoulders a bit. I also used the seam ripper to open up the sides of the skirt, under the new shoulders I had just cut, about seven inches. Once you sew up your shoulder seams, these will become your new armholes:
Then I sewed up the shoulder seams. After my new shoulders were sewn, I tried the dress on and cut the front of the neckline a little lower then the back, like so:
I cut four long 1 1/2 inch wide strips using the original waistband fabric (not pictured). These will become the binding on your new neckline and arm holes. I sewed the ends together so I had a circle that would fit the neckline I cut:
Then I pinned it together, making sure to stretch my neck binding a bit as I went. This will help it to lay flat when it's finished:
I then sewed the binding in by using a zig zag stitch all around the neckline. I repeated this process for the new armholes as well.
Once you have your neckline and armholes bound, you will have a basic tube of fabric that is starting to look like a dress! But pretty shapeless, right? Try it on and make sure everything so far fits! If it's all right, then cut a length of elastic to fit around you waist. Then you need to measure the length from the bottom of your arm hole, to where you want the waistline to be:
My measurement was about 6 inches from the bottom of the arm hole. I marked that spot on both sides with a pin. Then flipped my dress halfway inside out like this, folding it up from the pins I just placed as markers:
I pinned all along the bottom edge of the fold, making sure it was straight! This will be your elastic casing for your waistband elastic:
Then I sewed about 1/2 inch from the edge to create a casing for the waistband elastic, using a zig zag stitch, leaving about an inch open at the end:
Then, going in from the right side of my dress, I threaded the elastic through my new casing:
I tried the dress on again, adjusted the length of the elastic until it was perfect, then I sewed the tails of the elastic together with a zig zag stitch, and sewed the last inch of the casing closed. Done!
From that gigantic maxi skirt, I got this new dress!
I love it! The fabric is so much less overwhelming as a swingy little dress then as a huge voluminous maxi skirt. And because I made it specifically for my own body it is super flattering! Score!
Let me know what you think! I hope this inspires you to go check out your closet and see what you can refashion yourself. I just love how something like a piece of clothing that doesn't fit can be made into cute new clothes with just some basic sewing skillz!

Rudolph Days - May 2016
I needed to play catch up with my Christmas card numbers so opted for ultra-CAS this month:
I used:
- 4.25" x 4.75" white card blank, tent style - made to measure around the red mat and topper :)
- a red mat just slightly smaller than the card front, cut from SU's 'Real Red' card stock, glued onto the card front
- I found the snowmen panel already embossed, languishing in a box of Christmas bits and bobs here. I know the embossing folder used was Crafts-Too's 'Snowmen' and it was just a case of trimming off the excess surround
- rootled around to find a suitable sentiment of a size to fit in between the embossed stars and also using a quite funky font. Success! I stamped 'Be jolly' using Memento 'Tuxedo Black' ink and a stamp from Paper Smooches 'Christmas Sampler' sentiments set
- then it was just a matter of gluing the embossed panel in place and resisting the urge to add any colour or sparkle to the snowmen lest I ruin it!
I found four of these ready-embossed snowmen panels, which was a stroke of luck, so I made four identical cards of course. I think I embossed the little chaps when on a Cuttlebug play day at Art of Crafts, years ago! I certainly don't have the embossing folder here so either took the opportunity to use the shop's own goodies which were out for us to play with, or subsequently gave the folder away.
I'd like to enter this card into Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge (Anything Goes or Cute this week), and also Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra for May (always Anything Goes).

Here I was impressed with your re-introducing the brass stencil and it turns out that is an embossing folder. Well, you can still have your moment in the sun because this is sun a fabby card. Umm.... maybe a moment in the sun with snowmen isn't such a good idea... just never mind me.

This work stresses the unifying power of the geometrical framework in bringing together concepts from the different areas of physics. Common underpinnings of optics, elasticity, gravitation, relativistic fields, particle mechanics and others subjects are underlined. It attempts to extricate the notion of space currently in the physical literature from the metric connotation. It consists of a main text and a topical section. The main text introduces the mathematical ideas and serves as a guide to the topical section.

Quantity or Quality Metrics for your Social Media? Both!
So you've finally ventured into social media marketing for your brand. Congratulations! You may now be wondering whether you should focus on quantity (e.g. followers, retweets, etc.) or quality (i.e. engagement level) metrics to measure your results. This is an important question, but the answer is not so simple. Although most people think of the two as being mutually exclusive, they actually work together to build your brand on social media.
When first beginning your social media journey, it's usually better to focus on achieving quantity. This will allow you to build a strong foundation for future connections with your consumers. While it's true that a plethora of irrelevant content is much more wasteful than a few links of highly engaging content, even a few Facebook followers or retweets on Twitter are better than none at all. Think of what happens when there's a new restaurant in town. If there are only five people eating there on a Saturday evening, would you try it?
Of course, the focus on quantity can last for only so long. If you have 10,000 Facebook followers but know nothing about them, what's the use? This is where quality comes in. When your social media community reaches a solid number, the channel becomes more about engagement.
The quality of this engagement is what will build loyalty and long-term relationships. Once you have a sound fan base, deliver content that engages with consumers on a personal level. Not only will this build your credibility with them, but your followers will be more likely to tell their friends about your brand – and increase your quantity of social media followers.
Ultimately, you need a clear goal of why you are in social media and at you want to achieve. Only then will you be able to truly know the right balance between quantity or quality.

Good find - although I wouldn't want to build the metal version and try to get it to balance in that position....ReplyDelete
That's a great looking ctan "shard". I always liked those guys. I hope they come back in a big way in the new codex!ReplyDelete
Cheers Greg, I hope they are not nerfed and 6th, I think it's pegged so it's quite sturdy.ReplyDelete
Its looking good. Very nice paint job. You cannot see the join really. I think the blue of the flesh really sets a nice contrast to the black robes.ReplyDelete
I have a finecast one i am planning to convert, and although the cast is fine, the robe ends are very flimsy (and quite rubbery, but this is due to leaving it in fairy power spray too long)

Friday Night Dialogues: Teaching in Zaire
"It was the most rewarding time of my life and I wouldn't trade it for anything," says Frank Milano about his 1984-1986 Peace Corps experience in Zaire, a time when the country was host to between 65 to 70 Peace Corps volunteers. Zaire is now the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Mr. Milano was sent to teach biology and chemistry to high school aged young men, though he confesses he had to study harder than his students to stay ahead of them in chemistry. He spoke some French and a combination of lobbying and luck landed him in a French speaking country. But speaking French is one thing he says. Teaching biology and chemistry in French was quite another. Luckily his students were "sweet, motivated, and wanted to be sponges in order to soak everything up." The students had no textbooks, but relied on Mr. Milano's notes and the information he put on the blackboard.
Growing up in the South Bronx, Mr. Milano thought he had seen serious poverty, but nothing prepared him for the poverty in Zaire.
"My students came to school on empty stomachs, some walking two miles to get there. Each student had just one notebook and one Bic pen for the entire year. I would often catch them blowing at the other end of their pens to get every ounce of ink out of them," he wrote. But, the biggest shock, he said, was when he encountered people with leprosy, a disease he mistakenly thought was long gone.
Mr. Milano had his personal struggles as well, including bouts of malaria, giardiasis, depression, loneliness, culture shock and home sickness.
Still he says he regrets nothing, adding "I wouldn't trade it for anything," noting that on his last day, the students and villagers greeted him by chanting his last name, "Milano, Milano."
Come to the Friday Night Dialogues, September 21, from 7 to 8 p.m. and hear more about Frank Milano's years in the Peace Corps.
Up Next: Join us on October 12 at 7 p.m. when Nola Thacker will present "Three Dog Knights" a look at romance novels and the role that dogs have played in some of them.

Well, fist pump right back to you Mr. Cuban.
Recent news has warned that Greenville Avenue could be abnormally quiet this March 17th. Usually, it's a day filled with green beads, green beverages and large crowds as the Greenville Avenue St. Patrick's Day Parade marches down the famous street. But, this year, the Greenville Avenue St. Patrick's Day Association found themselves more than $40,000 short of the necessary budget to hold what would be the 33rd Annual Parade.
After some last minute efforts failed to produce the necessary cash, Dallas Maverick's owner, Mark Cuban stepped in. Stating that he didn't want to see the parade go away, Cuban pledged the full $40,00 to save the parade, a very last-minute move as the organizers stated they would pull the plug this Friday if they didn't have the necessary funds.
To read the full version of the story from The Dallas Observer, click here.
Here at Ebby, we're happy to see the parade will march on – it's a great Dallas tradition! And if the parade is one of your favorite Dallas activities, but you'd like to avoid the parking headaches, check out our Ebby.com Proximity Search to find a home within walking distance of the exciting event!

Difference between revisions of "France 1696-X ecu"
(New page: Heritage sale 3032, lot 24647 thumb This specimen was lot 24647 i...)
(No difference)
Revision as of 00:42, 22 June 2014
This specimen was lot 24647 in Heritage sale 3032 (Chicago, April 2014), where it did not sell. The catalog description[2] noted, "Louis XIV 1/2 Écu aux palmes 1696-X, Amiens mint, MS63 NGC. A lightly toned, mint-state example with a shallow obverse strike. The reverse of this piece is much more attractive and lustrous with markedly better detail. Struck over an earlier type from 1691 with a considerable amount of underlying elements still remaining."

text: New Delhi: Finishing fifth in the IGU All India Senior golf Championship here today, legendary cricketer Kapil Dev qualified for the Asia-Pacific Senior Championship to be held at Qingdao Club in China from October 14-16. The 1983 World Cup winning captain fired a round of nine-over 81 for the three days total of 23-over 239 at Jaypee Greens Golf Club. Amit Luthra, 1982 Asian Games gold medalist won the 54-hole tournament. He shot four-over 76 to clinch the title at 16-over 232 on his debut in 55 and above age category. The 1996 Arjuna Awardee said; "I think you have got to be bold to get a gold and that is exactly I have done all my life. I am very happy to win here during my first appearance in senior category and I am very excited to represent India at the Asia-Pacific after a sabbatical of 15 years," said Luthra. The six member team will consist of Noida's Gangesh Khaitan, Delhi's Gen R K Yadav, overnight leader IPS Mann of Chandigarh and Noida's Vijay Kumara Bhadana, apart from Dev and Luthra. Khaitan who has been a regular in the team for last 5 years shot a card of nine-over 81 for the total of 20-over 236 to finish as runner-up. Yadav and Mann finished tied 3rd at 22-over 238, while Bhadana came 6th at 24-over 240. IGU has been sending teams for the Asia-Pacific Senior for many years and India has a record of winning a bronze medal in the 2010 Asia-Pacific Senior amateur Championship in Thailand for the first time ahead of Japan, Korea, Australia, New Zealand and others. On the fourth and final day of mid-Amateur (Below 55 age category) Championship happening concurrently, Delhi's Vikram Rana kept his nerve to win the tournament after carding four-over 76 for the total of 12-over 300. Chandigarh�s HS Kang finished 2nd at 16-over 304 while one stroke behind was Noida's Simarjeet Singh at 3rd.

JULIAN Gray and Richard Langley, who have been pals since they were schoolboys, are rivals to play on the right for Cardiff City against Stoke City tomorrow.
Both were born in London and met as young players, Gray joining Arsenal and Langley going to Queens Park Rangers.
Now they are together at Cardiff and it looks certain that Langley will win the battle to replace Willie Boland on the right of midfield.
"It's great that Julian is here and he has helped me settle in even better," said Langley.
"I've known him since I was 13 - we played against each other many times at schoolboy level and it's good to have a familiar face around."
Manager Lennie Lawrence would not be drawn on whether he would opt for Gray, Langley or Boland in that crucial midfield position, but it looks certain Langley will get the nod.
Gray will be named among the substitutes for the final game in his initial month on loan from Crystal Palace - and Lawrence will extend his stay at the club.
Langley accepts he's not yet shown his best form for City, saying: "I'm still finding my feet and I agree with what Rhys Weston said - people haven't seen the best of me yet.
"If I've been getting stick it's only from a minority of the crowd.
"I haven't been here that long and it's going to take time to adapt to the different players I've got around me."

"Into The Light"
Into the Light is a tribute to an exceptional equestrian who I had the pleasure of calling friend. Never one to shrink from a challenge and quick to adapt to any situation. The first to smile and lend a hand to anyone who was in need. These are traits we should all strive to incorporate into our daily lives. It is the people we meet during our lifetimes that mold our way of thinking and give us role models that we would do well to follow their lead. This painting was referenced from a photograph I took several years ago. It has always been a favorite of mine for two reasons it exemplifies the tenacity and talent of an accomplished equestrian and my tribute to a friend. In to the Light my friend, you set the standard, now it's up to us to raise the bar and follow your lead.

text: When Drosophila embryos and pupae, undergoing differentiation, are subjected to a brief heat shock at an elevated temperature, specific abnormalities are produced in the adult organism. The type of abnormality produced is dependant upon the stage in the differentiation process at which the heat shock is administered. In addition, Drosophila cells respond to heat shock with the rapid cessation of all pre-existing transcription and translation, and the simultaneous transcription of a specific set of heat shock genes. Heat shock mRNAs are subsequently translated preferentially into a novel set of heat shock proteins. This response of Drosophila is independant of the type of tissue and the developmental state. Many other organisms display a similar protein synthetic heat shock response. Physarum plasmodia can be readily induced experimentally to undergo a process of differentiation leading to the development of mature sporangia. Heat shocks administered during this differentiation have been reported to result in the formation of abnormal sporangia. This thesis is concerned with the detailed investigation of normal sporangial development in Physarum and the effects on subsequent development of heat shocks administered at a number of different stages of development, using a combination of light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The more immediate response of Physarum protein synthesis to heat shock is also investigated, using radioactive labeling of proteins, SDS-polyacylamide gel electrophoresis and fluorography. Heat shocks administered during the early stages of Physarum sporangial development induce a delay in subsequent development but normal mature sporangia are produced. Heat shocks administered late in development induce the formation of grossly abnormal sporangia, with the type of abnormality induced being dependant upon the stage of development attained at the time of the heat shock. Heat shocks administered at a mid-point in development induce a complete, though not permanent, developmental arrest. Heat shocks at a number of different stages of Physarum sporangial development induce a considerable reduction in pre-existing protein synthesis, while the synthesis of a novel set of heat shock proteins is induced by each heat shock. The heat shock proteins of Physarum have approximate molecular weights of 85,000, 78,000, 75,000, 73,000, 69,000, 18,000, and 14,000 daltons, with the predominant heat shock protein being that of 69,000 daltons. Physarum plasmodia undergoing active growth synthesize the set of heat shock proteins typical of plasmodia undergoing development but, in this case, the pre-existing protein synthesis continues during the heat shock. The effects of heat shock on both the development and protein synthesis of Physarum plasmodia are discussed and relationships between these two phenomena are proposed. Also discussed are the similarities between heat shock-induced abnormalities in Drosophila and Physarum, and the similarities between the protein synthetic heat shock responses of these two organisms. In both organisms, a similar molecular basis probably underlies abnormality production, while the major heat shock proteins of both organisms are remarkably similar in molecular weight.

Happy Fashion Friday, all!
So this past week, things got extremely fury in Milan at the Fendi Fall/Winter 2013 Ready To Wear fashion show . I'm not talking about just the average collar and wrist trims or ordinary fur coats, although that was there too. I'm talking head-to-toe fur combinations. This leads me to my top fashion pick of the week, brought to you by the one and only Karl Lagerfeld (who's the creative director of this multinational luxury brand, for any of your rookies).
Result: The seriously awesome sunglasses adorned with fur detail on the arms. Their soft diamond shape and thick frames made for an edgy, yet playful combination that was displayed in colors like bright berry pink and Gator orange. Although the models rocked them with funky, dip-dyed mohawks, don't be fooled — you can still look normal and cute rocking these Fendi shades (or ones similar) in real life and off the runway.
Here's how:
Well, obviously Fendi is not in every fashionista's price range (including mine). And since these bad boys were just introduced to the fashion world this past Thursday, it's going to be a little while before people can get their hands on the imitations that stores need time to make before fall. So what do you do besides sit at home drooling over your Style.com app until these sassy furballs hit the market?
Calling all DIY-ers!
Go to your favorite shop for sunglasses and pick out ones with a thick, bold frame that you'd feel confident rocking and that have arms wide enough to glue (faux) fur onto them (I suggest going to Claire's and/or Icing in the Oaks Mall for the more cheaper ones!). Next, hit up Michaels or whatever your favorite craft store may be, for some fuzzy, furry add-ons and some strong craft glue (go for clear, not thick and white — it will be neater to work with!). For the Fendi look, get a fuzzy hue that matches that of the sunglasses' arms. The more eccentric and edgy you want the look to be, the more fur you should add.
But, what the heck do you wear these things with without getting a weird look from everyone you see on campus? Simply dress down the whole rest of your look by pairing them with simple denim jeans, a white tank top and some Converse sneakers or Toms (perhaps the color of your sunglasses). You can also try a lose tank top over a bandeau top that matches the color of your sunglasses. To take the funk downtown on a Friday night, rock the shades with the never-fail little black dress. To finalize the playful look, go for a pair of heels that share your shades' hue and a simple metallic cross-body chain bag for the perfect touch.
It might be too hot to wear fur on our bodies right now, but no one ever said the same rules apply for eyewear! So go, go, go! Begin your DIY project now, so that you're ahead of the game come fall.

To make the most effective product recommendations, Engagement Cloud has a data enrichment feature that uses artificial intelligence to find, extract, and classify extra information about your products. This feature analyses your product images and webpages then extracts and categorises information including descriptive labels, keywords, and colours into Insight data tags.
To use data enrichment, your Insight data collection must include either an
image_path field with a URL to an image of a product or a
url field with a URL to the webpage for a product. For best results, your Insight data collection should include both of these fields.
Enrichment types
Data enrichment is extracted in the following ways:
|Type of data extracted
|Required Insight data field
|How it works
|Image labels
|Artificial intelligence analyses the image and provides detailed descriptive tags, which a user can create filters against in the builder. For example: shirt, short-sleeved, summer, collar.
|Image colors
|Artificial intelligence identifies dominant colours by the hex value. These values are then abstracted to their named colour. This means a user creating a recommendation can create simple descriptive filters like "blue".
|Meta scraping
|The meta tags are extracted from the product webpage.
When you've added the required Insight data fields to your Insight data collection, you can enable product data enrichment to start the data extraction process.
Enabling product data enrichment
To enable product data enrichment on your account, go to Settings > Insight data > and click the Properties icon for your product catalog. Here, you will find an option to enable automated data enrichment.
Once enabled, we will begin to automatically enrich your product data. The initial enrichment may take several hours for very large catalogs. New products that are added to your catalog will be enriched automatically when they are synced to Engagement Cloud.
After data enrichment has completed, your Insight data collection will have an additional field labelled 'data_enrichment', which contains an array of tags that you can use to filter your product recommendations. For example, you may want to filter your best sellers by jackets with a hood.

Dive Brief:
- Since the beginning of the school year, there have been a growing number of reports of racially-motivated incidents and hate speech, though this increase is hard to verify because of a lack of hard statistics, increased media focus on such incidents, and a number of fake reports.
- However, a UCLA survey conducted at the end of the 2016-17 school year and released last month revealed that about 28% of teachers reported an increase in students making derogatory remarks about other groups during class discussions.
- Though some blame the so-called "Trump Effect" for such incidents, other experts feel that broader pre-existing conditions are to blame.
Dive Insight:
While the actual number of incidents of hate speech and whether or not it is increasing seems to be the matter of some debate, the reality is that racially motivated incidents of this kind should not be allowed to occur at all, especially in a school environment. Schools can be the agent of change in this matter if they teach tolerance as a part of social-emotional learning and also use civics classes to teach civil discourse. Racial diversity is a part of the glorious "melting pot" that is America, and educators must find ways to help students talk about race in the classroom in a safe environment.
While some blame the problem on the lack of civil discourse in American politics, the answer may lie more in the realm of social media where most students live. There has been an increase in racist and derogatory hate speech on social media, with some studies indicating that roughly 10,000 tweets a day are racist or derogatory messages. However, a deeper dive into these reveals that up to 70% of these messages were used in ways that were not likely meant to be insulting, but were rather racist terms appropriated by the groups they were meant to represent, and which were commonly used in modern cultural settings.
If there were ever a time to teach respect for one another in all aspects of life, it is now. Even racist terms used in a cultural context can get out of hand. In the meantime, schools need to develop adequate social media guidelines to protect themselves and students in situations where freedom of speech is used as a weapon against someone else.

Drinking out of a bottle is so…. what's the word? ….Wrong?…Wino?….Icky?
While those red plastic cups may have been fun at college parties, to truly get the right flavors from your drinks, you need to use the right glassware. (Trust me… )
Whether you are serving Red Wine, Champagne or Pisco Sours, it's always best to have the right glass for the contents. It enhances the experience and makes you feel more like a real grown up.
(honestly, if you are well past the age where you need to sneak booze out of dad's liquor cabinet, then you are old enough to get some decent glasses).
Good glassware comes in loads of styles, and can be inexpensive or expensive… it depends on your taste and budget what you want to bring home.

It is now over a hundred years since the Norfolk and Suffolk broads were commercial waterways, carrying cargoes of agricultural produce up and down the rivers Ant, Bure, Waveney. The floods of 1912 closed the upper Bure navigation from Coltishall to Aylsham, and by the Second World War the upper Waveney above Geldeston lock to Bungay had been abandoned. The end of the North Walsham and Dilham canal meant that the river Ant had also closed to commercial traffic. Only the the greatest of these rivers, the Yare, kept its trading vessels for another half century.
As the commercial side of river use faded, tourism had already begun to take its place. Wroxham was already a centre of the leisure boating business in the late nineteenth century and the shop Roys of Wroxham owes its origin and continued success to these customers; before departing on a cruise on the Broads the wealthy visitors stocked up with groceries from Roys. The tourist market grew and grew until today it has completely taken over all the boating activity on the Broads. The rivers Bure, Thurne and Ant to the north are particularly popular with tourists. The river Yare is less so, but the Waveney and Oulton Broad take much of this southern river business.
In having a commercial use the Yare held out the longest, with the regular passage of trading vessels up to Norwich. Coming through Great Yarmouth from the ports of Europe and as far away as South America this shipping gave an international feel to the Norwich riverside. There is still a small amount of commercial traffic on the river Yare, although not as far upstream as formerly. A barge taking some large machinery upriver to Cantley sugar beet factory was reported in the Easter Daily Press as recently as December 2013.
The traffic on the other rivers was never international and had already vanished by the end of the first half of the 20th century. No powered vessels took the place of the sailing wherries on these minor waterways. Millers took their grain from motor lorries now that these were available instead of by boat. The mills all fell victim to the changing patterns of trade, being converted to residences or left to fall derelict. Saxlingham mill on the river Tas is just about the only watermill still milling commercially. It produces animal feed although not by water power any more. In Norfolk there is one mill left grinding grain by water at Letheringsett on the river Glaven, and this is operated as a tourist attraction.
By the end of the 20th century the last commercial river, the Yare, had become almost entirely the preserve of leisure craft. The the 19th century saw the greatest use made of the Broadland rivers, with over a hundred wherries registered at Yarmouth alone. Although the waterways had been the main conduit of trade for centuries, the sheer volume of cargoes had increased exponentially with the Industrial Revolution creating demand for food. At the beginning of the eighteenth century the keel was still the dominant broadland craft. Being dependent on a square sail it was not as adept at sailing the winding rivers as the wherry, with its single fore-and-aft rigged sail. This sail meant it could go closer to the wind than a keel, and one man and a boy could handle it. Even so it needed its quant, a type of punt pole, to push the vessel along at times when the wind was dead against travel, or had dropped completely.
In the early years of the 19th century steam vessels began to take passengers on the river Yare from Norwich to Yarmouth, greatly speeding up the communications along this important route. By the 1840s the railway had come to Norfolk with first line being constructed along the Yare valley from Great Yarmouth to Norwich. The railways soon took much of the freight and almost all of the passenger traffic from the river.
Although the tonnage carried by steamers and later by diesel freighters along the river Yare was highest in the 20th century, as a proportion of total freight carried to Norwich the significance of river traffic was minor, as rail and then road took over. Coal was probably the cargo most reliant on river transport and the arrival of colliers from Tyneside were a regular event in the first seventy years of the last century. The closure of the gas works and later the electricity generating station removed the need for colliers to use the river Yare. Grain for Read's flour mill, softwood from Scandinavia and fruit juice for Colman's from Argentina came into the port of Norwich, and scrap metal left by ship up until the late 1970s, but the increasing size of freighters was making it impossible to use the smaller ports. Kings Lynn and Felixstowe remain East Anglia's principal ports and a new deep water harbour has been built at the mouth of the River Yare in the hope of attracting the larger vessels now in use to Yarmouth, but the poor road links make this an unattractive port. Yarmouth is more likely to be the port for vessels serving the North Sea energy installations.
