The British Virgin Islands. Prague. Paris. London. Ireland. Spain. So many fabulous places to go…. So little time! I want to see and learn as much as I can. But I’ve learned some valuable lessons on our travels, and want to offer you some thoughts to consider before you take your trip out of this country.

 Watches are no longer just timekeepers. They are a definite fashion statement. They state whether you are trendy or conservative. The type of watch a person wears speaks a lot not only about the brand but even the model. If watches were once a prized possession, one to be owned for a lifetime,If you look at the replica shoes you realize that they shall be great for your expections. these are times when people shuffle several brands, many models; one to suit every occasion.

However, there were no such restrictions for the Duke of Cambridge and Prince Harry on their long weekend at a wedding of close friends in the Swiss Alps. 

The Duchess, 31, who is an excellent skier, would normally have joined her husband and brother-in-law schussing down the runs in the resort of Arosa, but her pregnancy meant she had to swap skis for a traditional wooden sledge. 

While the Duke, 30,canada goose chilliwack parka and Prince Harry, 28, joked around with friends on the piste, she occupied her free time by taking a quiet walk by herself with a bodyguard amid the spectacular mountain scenery. 

At one point the Royal brothers, fully kitted up in skiing gear, were each seen to be hugging a different woman on the slopes. 

However, the pregnant Duchess was able to enjoy the wedding to the full and was said to have celebrated late into the night. 

The Royal party travelled to Arosa on Friday for the marriage of Laura Bechtolsheimer, who won a gold medal in the team dressage for Britain at London 2012, and Mark Tomlinson, who plays polo with both princes. 

The candle-lit wedding service in the resort’s Protestant church on Saturday afternoon was conducted in English and German jointly by the local pastor Thomas Muller-Weigl and Canon Christopher Mulholland, the former rector of Little Badminton, Gloucestershire, and a close friend of the Prince of Wales.Canada Goose Expedition Parka 

The Duke, who wore a traditional dark morning suit, pink tie, blue waistcoat and a white rose in his button-hole, acted as an usher. 

At one point he almost slipped over but avoided embarrassment by grabbing hold of a fellow usher’s jacket to steady himself. 

The Duchess looked warm but stylish in a cream coat with fur trim, a brown hat and drop-pearl earrings. She wore high-heeled shoes, which experts recommend pregnant women should limit to special occasions. 

After attending the wedding ceremony, the Duke, Duchess and Price Harry joined about 250 other guests for a lavish reception at the magnificent five-star Tschuggen Grand Hotel. 

After aperitifs on a terrace overlooking the Graubunden mountains and a seven-course meal, the revellers moved on to the hotel bar for further celebrations. 

“Let’s just say it was a good party. No one retired before midnight,” a source said. 

Miss Bechtolsheimer and Mr Tomlinson, who attended the Duke and Duchess’s wedding in April 2011, treated their friends and family to an all-expenses paid weekend in the ski resort. 

The guests arrived at the hotel on Friday to find skis, poles and ski passes already waiting in their rooms. The sledge had also been arranged for the Duchess. 

A source said: “The attention to detail was incredible and the family were very generous hosts. Everything was so well organised. The skis in the room was a lovely touch. They took the hassle out of everything.” 

The slopes of Switzerland have formed an important backdrop to the Duke and Duchess’s relationship over the past decade. 

Their romance was first confirmed when they were pictured skiing in Klosters together in March 2004, and they were photographed kissing in public for the first time during a break at the same resort in January 2006.

Tonight on American Idol: The female half of the Season 12 top 20 is made final! To celebrate, Ryan stands in front of a lot of fire at the show's outset. And then it's right into the performances, because there is lots of important work to do if the producers want to get the first female winner since the “Umbrella” era. 

MELINDA ADEMI. She was a contestant during Season 10 and had a package about her parents being refugees from Kosovo then. She, like Angela Miller last week, sings Jessie J's “Nobody's Perfect.” It is not a good performance. It's gaspy and she sounds like a rubber band on the high notes. Nicki calls her out not only for singing the same song as Angela last week, but for singing a Jessie J song for the second time and pigeonholing herself as an artist.we offer kinds of discount gucci handbags Pro Headphones online . I can't help but wonder that the doubling up on this particular track is part of The Plot To Break Jessie J In America, although I suppose that theory would hold more water if she were on Interscope and not Island. Nevertheless. 

CANDICE GLOBER. She's wearing a studded white jacket that I am pretty sure at least one of my friends owned in fifth grade, and she's singing a big-voiced version of “(You Make Me Feel Like A) Natural Woman” that incorporates a gear-shift key change. It's a little showy but when you go second on sudden-death night I guess you have to go big or go home. Keith replies to her in song, calling her a “natural singer” in the chorus's cadence. Nicki calls out last year's judges for not putting her through; Randy says that she's one of his favorite singers and notes that last year was “a different time.” Oh, was it now. Mariah, who's in the Hugh Acheson last-judge slot, calls her a “bona fide sinnnnng-er,” and asks Candice a bunch of rapidfire questions regarding her feelings on her performance that she can only say yes to. 

JULIANA CHAHAYED. She's 15 and has a musical dad! She's alone in the middle of the stage with an acoustic guitar that looks like it could potentially swallow her, and she's performing Demi Lovato's “Skyscraper” in a super-slowed-and-stripped fashion, with the first verse sounding like she's singing it through gritted teeth. She has a very pretty, airy upper range once she gets there, and the slow build on this is certainly interesting in the maximalist Idol context, but she looks pretty petrified and is probably going to be sent back for some extra seasoning. Keith notes her nervousness but likes the “purity about the tone of [her] voice,” comparing it to Jewel and Taylor Swift. Nicki likes how she sticks out of the crowd and would probably have fun at a concert she put on, but notes that she might be a bit too timid for the Idol context. Gee, you think? Mariah says she's “celestial” and likes her combination of airiness and vulnerability. Juliana picked “Skyscraper” because she didn't like it very much! That's going to anger the Lovatics. 

JETT HERMANO. Speaking of songs people aren't very into, this 25-year-old from Seattle is singing Rihanna's “Only Girl In The World.” A few years ago this song tripped up a lot of singers, but she figures out a way to make it work: Turn it into a slowed-down piano ballad that draws out the melody's sensuality. (Tori Amos on line one!) She struggles here and there vocally, but overall does a good job, and the finish is lovely—she coos her final run. Keith liked how she drew out the sexiness; Nicki wanted more of a climax. Randy wanted one of those big Idol “throw down the piano and freak out” moments, because he's apparently regressing to his previous self. Sigh. Mariah likes how there's “something different” about Jett, and wants to see how she develops over time. “Good luck with the rest of this whole thing,” she says, which sounds like a sign-off? We will see. 

CRISTABEL CLACK. Ooh, a couch session with Ryan. The 29-year-old worship leader and mom of three talks about how she had a panicked moment on the plane, but then God told her “everything's gonna be all right,” and that moment gave her the confidence to sing… “No One” by Alicia Keys. She definitely has a more interesting voice than Alicia Keys and at one point she takes on a Noo Yawk accent. Keith is over the moon, praising “that soul-croaky-cool thing in there.” Nicki is not as pleased. How weird is it for her to hear all these songs by people who she's worked with? Randy likes it, calling her a “racehorse singer” and praising the fact that she doesn't oversing. Mariah wishes that she would do more gospel songs but gives it up for the background singers of the world, and pleads for her to come back. And now it's time for the first Twitter poll of the evening! Do you, audience members, agree with the judges? Given that they were sort of a mixed bag in this case, this is a weird moment to go all Heather Chandler in the Westerburg High cafeteria on them, but the demands of cross-promotion don't really follow, you know, logic, as the AT&T ad that follows Cristabel's segment shows. 

AUBREY CLELAND. She grew up on a farm but has a dream of making it to the big city. Ooh, she's doing Beyoncé's “Sweet Dreams”! This is one of my favorite B songs. She's certainly dressed the part, in a long-sleeved minidress and big heels. This arrangement is a bit dirgey and, unlike Jett's Rihanna song, could really use a bit of pep. (My favorite part of the track is where Beyoncé snaps “turn the light off,” but that ad-lib does not fit this arrangement.) Keith comes so close to using the old “made it your own” chestnut—maybe that's coming soon. Nicki drops the o-word—obsessed—and notes that Aubrey actually seems like a current artist. Or she could model! The camera lovingly pans up Aubrey's body after this comment, which, sigh. Nicki is so happy with this performance that she can't stop talking. Randy ribs Nicki's signature line, which I suspect we'll have to get ready for over the next few months. (Three months are left, by the way,Read 16 independent user reviews and compare prices on the Men's HyBridge Jacket. in case you're wondering.) Then there's a bunch of crosstalk over whether or not this song was big enough for her, until Mariah breaks it by calling Aubrey “limitless” and says that she hopes she continues. Aubrey is very grateful, but that won't stop the arguing over whether or not this was the right song from continuing. 

RACHEL HALE. She's from an adorable picture-postcard small town in Arkansas that just got its second stoplight. Aw. She's singing Grace Potter and the Nocturnals. There's a husky quality to her voice that I really like, to the point where I kind of get chills when the band drops out. She botches a couple of the big notes on the finish, although I blame the Idol producers for forcing her to get all dramatic at the end, because the goopy big finish doesn't really fit in with what makes this performance work. Keith wonders if the song didn't get on top of her at points; Nicki asks where her confidence came from, and Rachel replies that she's been praying a lot. This prompts Nicki to drop in some MC Hammer. Randy is happy that she upped the energy level and extols the virtue of prayer. Mariah wonders if the song prevented the viewing audience from hearing Rachel The Singer. 

(In New York we got an ad for a news report on “BUTT SHOTS” that are “PUTTING WOMEN AT RISK” during this commercial break. Oh, sweeps, I will miss you so much.) 

BREANNA STEER. She's from Louisiana and she's singing Jazmine Sullivan's “Bust Your Windows.” This revenge anthem is a showpiece of a song and she's doing an okay job of it—her voice sounds good but there's something tightly restrained about her performance that doesn't quite fit with the song's Destroy Everything Around Me histrionics. “I dated a girl like that years ago,” Keith says before admitting he hasn't heard the song. Guess he doesn't watch Glee, either. (Fox will have DVDs in your dressing room tomorrow, Keith.) Nicki is rapturous, calling her “sexy on a stick,” saying that she and Aubrey could get record deals today. Randy cites her Louisiana heritage and his own. Mariah loves Jazmine Sullivan and loves that song and loves Breanna's marketability. “I don't know what we're gonna do,” Mariah says about the overwhelming amount of women. What if the Top 20 was all ladies? It would at least make the producers happy.Women Canada Goose Resolute Parka. Ryan tries to make a Carrie Underwood callback but it doesn't quite work. 

Oh, here is a weird ad about wearing a bra that is visible through your clothing because it makes men want to look at you. How did Seth MacFarlane not script this? Ugh. 

JANELLE ARTHUR. What is this peach fringed polyester shirt Janelle is wearing? We get it, she's a country singer—she's singing Lady Antebellum's “Just A Kiss,” too. Her voice does not sound great; she sounds like she's caught up in one of those karaoke performances by someone who drank a milkshake before hitting the bar, all phlegmy and weird. The ending is okay but there are too many weird moments in this performance for it to be seen as any sort of good. I suspect she's going to make it through anyway. Nicki wasn't into the disconnected,The fresh and unique styling of duvetica down jackets perfectly caters to a young and funky audience.Clearance of Canada Goose Snow Mantra Parka is very popular in the our online store. try-hard aspects of her performance but notes that she's probably going to make it through anyway. The other comments follow suit. Janelle drawls about how much she loves Lady Antebellum in the post-performance interview session.

1. This country is complicated. Not like Manhattan is complicated or like calculus is complicated, but like humans are complicated. The country wrestles not just with a staggeringly diverse population representing a cacophonous mix of cultures, but also with a history loaded with all matters of tragedy and injustice, redemption and resentment. Every point has a counterpoint, every opinion has its opposite waiting for you at the other side of the street. The Oscar Pistorius murder case is a fair reflection of just how murky things still are there: depending on whom you talk to, it's either a case of violence against women or a symptom of the well-armed paranoia of the rich elite, or perhaps just a simple human tragedy. Serve up strong opinions of your own to locals about what is really happening in South Africa and you're likely to just show how little you know. And besides, South Africa is so much more than the Pistorius drama, or crime, or anything else you might read in the headlines. The best thing we did as visitors was to just try to listen, on all levels, to what this incredible country was trying to tell us. 

2. In Cape Town, set up shop in the Bo-Kaap. Yes, the neighborhood's raw beauty—the pastel-painted houses, the views across the city bowl to Devil's Peak—will win you over instantly. But it's the inimitable sense of community that makes this place hard to leave, a sense that endures despite rising house prices and the sudden arrival of tourists like us looking to soak up some of the good vibes. Stay for more than a few days and you'll soon find yourself talking to familiar faces on the streets, wandering into the corner store to pick up hot koeksisters (the warm, sugar-shellacked Cape Malay doughnut), shaking hands with neighbors curious to know what you're up to in their part of town. We found ourselves on the receiving end of an overwhelming act of generosity when a local family invited us and our friend, journalist Nastasya Tay, to a four-hour feast of lobster curry and lamb biryani. 

3. It's not just black and white. Understanding the racial vocabulary is an important first step in understanding South Africa.As a Canada Goose Camp Down filling, the good quality of down leather-based performs a vital position in the brand's popularity. The country's ethnic breakdown looks like this: black (roughly 80 percent of the population),Long and slim-fitting, the Canada Goose Montebello is equally appropriate for strolling a city street or hiking a snowy trail. white (9 percent), Coloured (9 percent), and Asian (just north of 2 percent). Those terms don't just exist for demographic purposes; for better or worse, they become a very matter-of-fact form of identification in a country with a long-entrenched (and slowly shifting) racial hierarchy. 

The term that jumps out, of course, is Coloured. If doesn't exactly sing to American ears, as it was a preferred racial term of the segregation era. But in South Africa, it refers to an entirely different ethnic group, a catch-all term for descendants of lighter-skinned native peoples, slaves imported from the Dutch East Indies (Malaysia but mostly Indonesia), and people with mixed European and African blood. Many people we met who technically qualify as Coloured didn't identify with that term, instead using “so-called Coloured”, which seems like the best solution until they figure out a new term, or even if all those disparate groups should be lumped under one term at all. 

4. Make it a flat white. It's the drink of choice amongst South Africa's serious caffeine heads, and for good reason. It's like the lovechild of a macchiato and a latte, a perfect balance of dense, bitter espresso and a tight milky cap of what meticulous baristas call microfoam. It drinks like a velvet jacket soaked in espresso. In Cape Town, places like Jason's and Deluxe serve exceptional coffee, but we'll take ours from the Department of Coffee in Khayelitsha, an awesome and unlikely township coffeeshop where flat whites go for 8R, about half of what they cost in the City Bowl. 

5. Learn donkeys of new words. South Africa has 11 official languages, a head-spinning mix of European and tribal dialects that span the entire spectrum of human tonal capability. They also contribute a rich stew of slang that permeates all of South Africa, regardless of mother tongue. Here's a quick primer on some of the most useful words: 

6. Pay the meter men. They're a ubiquitous force on the city streets of South Africa, waiting for you every time you open or close your car door. Some of those guys are official, others are not. Either way, a few rand will go a long way to making sure your wheels are in good hands while you're off drinking flat whites, buying spices and employing your list of South African slang. Our guy in the Bo Kaap, who liked to be called Car (actually short for Abubakr, his real name), not only cleaned and kept watch over our rental, but also became a vital source of information during our time in the neighborhood. The informal economy is an important part of South African life; do what you can to help the hustle. 

7. Take the spice route. The Cape Malays have created their own unique brand of cooking, one with influences that stretch from Amsterdam to New Delhi. The one common theme binding this culinary mash-up is the aggressive use of spices in most traditional dishes. Not so much heat, but warm, sweet and savory notes from spices like black mustard, cardamom and fenugreek, and blends like garam masala and curry powders. You can taste them in action at restaurants like Noon Gun or Biesmiellah, Bo Kaap staples serving up spice-driven dishes like bobotie and denning vleis.Shop the latest collection of monster beats cheap from the most popular stores . But the nerve center of the spice trade is the Atlas Trading Company, where the Ahmed family has been pushing seeds, powders, pods and for over five decades.A great blend of our authentic Canada Goose Whistler Parka Parka functionality and cutting edge style. Stop by and pick up their famous leaf masala, a pungent 12-spice blend that travels better than any souvenir you'll find elsewhere in town. 

8. Burn off the hangover at a market. Neighbourgoods, found in the Old Biscuit Mill in shabby-chic Woodstock (with another branch in Johannesburg), gets the community market recipe just right: a few stands of high-quality fresh meat and produce, a battery of exceptional prepared food stalls, and a good measure of general revelry found in the form of live music and wine and cocktail dispensaries. Start with a flat white, move onto a piri piri-spiked bloody Mary, and eventually work your way up to the Test Kitchen's obscenely delicious take on eggs benedict: a crispy potato pancake topped with smoked salmon, a poached egg, and a golden blanket of hollandaise. Hangovers don't stand a chance against this market masterpiece. 

9. How you spend your Rand matters. With massive strikes over wage issues and worker conditions crippling much of the Western Cape's agricultural economy over the past year, spending Rand in the right place can make a difference in the ongoing struggle to bridge the gaping wealth gap in the country. Perhaps the easiest way to do that is by being smart about the wine you drink while in the country (and, of course, while drinking South African wine anywhere). Widely-available wines from Thandi, Tukulu and Solms-Delta all fit the bill of wineries owned or operated, or at least profit-shared, by black or so-called Coloured workers, groups historically cut out of the wine profits enjoyed by white producers. 

10.The Canada Goose Heli-Arctic Parka keeps you incredibly warm without puffing you up. Beach + Braai = Happiness: South Africans' love of the open flame makes America's grill culture look downright quaint, and there's no better place to bask in its awesomeness than on a stretch of warm sand. Strandloper, an oceanside braai mecca 90 minutes east of Cape Town, is a BYO affair involving an unholy amount of food—something in the realm of 12 dishes trotted out over the course of three hours, everything from grilled bread to charred mackerel to lobster tails bathed in garlic butter. Bring beers and cold white wine and be prepared for copious amounts of sun, music and blackened sea creatures. At the end, there's coffee that's been cooked over the embers until it looks like demi glace, which you'll need in order to peel your bloated body off the beach and transport it, reluctantly, back to Cape Town. 

The sole survivor of a fatal fishing trip has cried while describing how he and his two crewmen clung to his upturned boat in dark, cold waters off South Australia.Free shipping for Canada Goose Womens Snow Mantra Parka, lifetime quality guarante at Canada Goose Outlet. 

Andrew Pisani told an Adelaide inquest into the deaths of Adam Mark Nicolai and Justin Shane Hellyer that when the boat sank completely, the two men held onto the life jackets he had handed them just before the three of them were flung into the sea. 
When Mr Hellyer said he couldn't swim, Mr Nicolai had given him his life jacket to lie on. 

As Mr Pisani broke down on Tuesday while describing what happened on the night of September 28, 2008, relatives of the two dead men embraced each other and cried.

Mr Pisani managed to swim to shore. 

The commercial fisherman told the inquest he had been pulling a net back into the vessel when the wind suddenly "got out of control". 

"That's when we copped the first big wave," he said. 
He cut off the net and ran to the front of the boat to try to get some other gear overboard, so they could get back to shallow water. 

"I knew the boat was going to be gone, so I told the boys to get their wet gear off,The Best moncler jackets for sale White Mens will meet your satisfaction!" Mr Pisani said. 

He also gave them life jackets, but the boat went straight over when a second wave hit. 

No one had a chance to put on their jackets or get off their heavy clothing, including rubber boots. 

"There was no time, no time to do anything,View our complete selection of Canada Goose Solaris Parka Jackets." he said. 
After Mr Pisani went underwater, he managed to get his wet gear off and "tried and tried and tried" to swim to life rings that were adrift, but they floated away. 

"I said we are going to make a run for it, to swim home," he said.

The seven ounce,Shop the latest collection of monster beats cheap from the most popular stores .Womens Canada Goose Kensington Parka Hyacinth. six-inch device creates an unmistakable sound; a sharp cackle denoting nonlethal protection. The Taser's debut for civilian use dates back almost 20 years when it was first launched in 1994. 

Taser claims its devices to have saved over 100,000 lives since then. Rich Friedel, a certified Taser Instructor, monikered the easy-to-use Taser C2 equipment a "flashlight with benefits." 

Friedel supports the Second Amendment but understands not everyone is comfortable with a firearm and the use of deadly force. 

"Taser is a non-lethal, self-protection tool, consumer tool, that Taser makes. It's effective, it's absolutely effective," said Friedel. 

It's compact, fits in a pocket, and is deployed with a simple push of a button. The two prongs can travel 180 feet-per-second, leaving the target with a muscle-debilitating 50,000 volts for 30 seconds; an ample amount of time to escape a dangerous situation. 

Friedel showed iff the C2's effectiveness Saturday afternoon at Three Sights Shooting range, dispelling common misconceptions of the electronic control device. Is the assailant wearing a leather jacket? From 15 feet, the Taser C2 has enough juice to penetrate and be effective. 

Ann Hillman, an experienced gun owner,The Canada Goose Victoria Parka is simple, yet classic, and designed to be worn where extreme weather protection is a necessity. found the non-lethal alternative surprisingly easier to fire than a gun. 

"No kick.The Canada Goose Constable Parka is a stylish down jacket made in Canada. It was real simple. It went off before I realized it was going to. You're not worried about hurting the person, just stopping them." 

Unlike the police issued Tasers, which the stun lasts about five seconds, the C2 continues for another 25 seconds. Each cartridge can only be fired once, but if still connected, the device can pump volts multiple times. 

Friedel said most people become comfortable with the device after a 15 minute demonstration. 

"They were going, 'I didn't realize how simple this was, no kickback, it's easy to use.' The women I had demonstrate it says 'Oh yeah,Women Canada Goose Resolute Parka. I would ready that before even thinking about pulling the gun out,'" said Friedel. 

I enjoy Facebook. Maybe a little too much. Where some see "empowerboasting" and "humblebragging," I see inspiration and interesting ideas in the form of status updates. I even appreciate political views I may not agree with,As a duvetica down jackets filling, the good quality of down leather-based performs a vital position in the brand's popularity. so long as they're expressed with some common sense and decency. The best part of Facebook: endless links to interesting articles I might otherwise have missed. (Times senior editorial writer Michael McGough's Facebook page is one of my news sources. No joke.) 

Of course, Facebook is what you make of it. And if you're friends with a bunch of jerks, Facebook can become a toxic place. 

I'd been spared this experience until I came across an update Monday from a freelance journalist acquaintance who writes about entertainment and pop culture. 

He wrote: Fergie's baby destined for a birth from a mother of advaPurchase supra shoes for girls online, stay updated on team riders, latest news and events.nced age.Working out of power manage to buy moncler jackets property. 

His friend commented: Bet it's got downs and still exceeds her iq! 

Disgusting. Totally ruined my night -- until I deleted this guy from my "friends." 

That transaction was nothing compared to the hateful postings that Laura Bates points to in a Guardian article published Monday that asks, "Does Facebook have a problem with women?" In the piece, Bates wonders why Facebook bans photos of women breastfeeding while allowing misogynistic posts that violate Facebook's community standards advising against hate speech. 

"Yet," Bates writes, "images currently appearing on the site include a joke about raping a disabled child, a joke about sex with an underage girl and image after image after image of women beaten, bloodied and black-eyed in graphic domestic violence 'jokes.' " 

Bates' list of examples continues, each more stomach-churning and graphic than the last. And the problem,Why Choose german militaria? she argues, goes beyond these offensive status updates and photos. She argues that "each image normalizes gender-based violence, sending the message to both victims and perpetrators that ours is a culture that doesn't take it seriously." 

Beyond writing about this heinous activity taking place on Facebook, and Twitter too (click with caution), Bates sheds light on the lamentable gender inequality that takes place offline too. She is the founder of the Everyday Sexism Project, which uses the principles of social media to solicit and catalog user-generated comments that describe "daily experiences of gender inequality." Next time someone tells you sexism no longer exists, send them here. 

The project is like a living, breathing commentary on how gender bias continues to thrive even in 2013, 50 years after Betty Friedan's "The Feminine Mystique" was published and became an international bestseller.

The suspect then struggled with a second victim and shot her in the leg and then pistol-whipped the third victim before fleeing empty-handed, according to Shyy.

Pamela Smallis, 49,Beats monster beats cheap tour with controltalk review By Dre. whose last known address was 300 Stocker Drive, has been charged with felony retail theft and conspiracy to commit retail theft by South Strabane Township police. She was freed after posting $10,000 bond after her Wednesday arraignment. 

South Strabane police said Smallis and 21-year-old Olivia Domenick of Coraopolis were spotted about 3:20 a.m. Jan. 7 reaching behind the electronics counter at the township Walmart and taking a set of keys for locked cases. 

Police said the women used the keys to unlock the cases and took nine iPads and 23 iPods, valued at a total of $9,972, and hid them under a jacket in their shopping cart. Domenick then pushed the cart toward the exit, where she was met by 24-year-old Jeremy Stover of Coraopolis, who loaded the items into a van driven by Smallis, police said. 

Using surveillance video, police from Allegheny and Beaver counties were able to identify the trio, who they said are transient and have been living in different hotels. Police determined the stolen items were pawned Jan. 10 and 11 in Pittsburgh by Stover and Domenick. 

Stover and Domenick, who also are charged with retail theft and conspiracy, remained Friday in the Washington County Jail on $10,000 bond each, according to online court documents.List of waffen ss uniforms Products. 

Smallis in November waived her right to a preliminary hearing on about 100 child-porn-related charges ranging from child porn possession, photographing child-sex acts, sexual exploitation of children, unlawful contact, endangering the welfare of children, corruption of minors, obstruction of justice and criminal use of a cellphone. 

She was charged in September after investigators found a video of two girls and a boy in a shower, with her voice directing them, on her cellphone, which had been confiscated as part of a drug investigation against Smallis and her adult son. 

Investigators said they found a similar video and more than 30 image files portraying minors ages 8 to 16 in various states of undress and engaging in sexual activity on the phone's memory card. The files were created between Dec. 31, 2010, and March 14, 2012,The Canada Goose Expedition Parka is one amongst the foremost in style international models. according to the complaint. 

Smallis previously owned child day-care centers in North Fayette Township and Monaca, but authorities said the images discovered were not connected to the businesses or any of her former clients. 

Smallis is awaiting trial in May in Allegheny County Court on charges of possession of a controlled substance, possession with intent to deliver, criminal use of a cellphone, endangering the welfare of children, corruption of minors and solicitation of minors to sell drugs from an April arrest. The state Attorney General's Office said she used her children to assist in selling drugs to confidential informants on five occasions late 2011.Shop the latest collection of moncler jackets men from the most popular stores .

A group of women plan a protest today at the Hollister at Northwoods Mall after a Texas employee of the chain reportedly yelled at a customer who breastfed her child outside the shop. 

A Facebook group organizing the local protest indicates 16 women may attend the 3 p.m. demonstration at the North Charleston mall. Some of the women may nurse their children in public to protest the store employee's reactionn. 

Across the country, hundreds of women plan similar demonstrations at Hollister locations after the Dallas incident. The reported victim claims she was harassed and chastised for breast feeding her child on a bench outside the store. 

Texas law allows women to breastfeed anywhere they are legally allowed to be, but the woman said a store employee yelled at her as she fed her child. The woman told KVUE-TV that she covered her child and breast with a jacket, but the store manager still insisted that she leave. 

The retailer has not commented publicly the situation, according to KVUE-TV.The world centre of LIVESTRONG Cycling. 

The woman is considering a lawsuit. South Carolina laws similary allows women to breastfeed in any place they are legally allowed to be. There's no requirement to cover the woman or the child, and the S.C. law specifically states that the act is not indecent exposure. 

Diamond has studied traditional societies in Africa, Asia, South and North America and the Arctic, but most of his analysis comes from his observations of his old scientific stamping grounds in New Guinea, a process that has not been without its tribulations. Several years ago, Diamond met a tribesman called Daniel Wemp who said he had organised a clan war in New Guinea to avenge the death of an uncle.Sofia Vergara wearing Christian louboutin high heel shoes. After three years, and 29 deaths, Wemp's target – a man called Isum Mandingo – was left paralysed in an attack.Shop the latest christian louboutin boots handpicked by a global community of independent trendsetters and stylists. Diamond wrote up the story for the New Yorker in 2009 – and found himself at the receiving end of a $10m lawsuit. 

An investigation by Rhonda Roland Shearer – the widow of the evolutionary biologist Stephen Jay Gould and a director of a website called StinkyJournalism – alleged that the New Yorker article was riddled with errors; that Wemp had not organised the clan war and that Mandingo had not been injured. It was also claimed that Wemp was now living in fear of his life because of Diamond's article. Hence the lawsuit. For their part, both Diamond and David Remnick,Most people only dream of owning a prada bags. the editor of the New Yorker, vigorously denied the allegations. Their story was backed by careful notes that had been taken at the time by Diamond, while his text had been carefully scrutinised by one of the magazine's best fact checkers, Remnick added. 

The case caused a flurry among science journals but has since fizzled out. Diamond blinks and looks pained when I mention the name Rhonda Shearer. "A distinctive person about whom I shall refrain from commenting," he mutters. "That was the first and only time I have been sued. I am happy to say the case was dismissed." However, there is no mention of the Wemp tale, although highly relevant to Diamond's thesis, in The World Until Yesterday. Caution appears to have won the day. 

The issue of vengeance is central to Diamond's book. In the west, when a person is robbed or injured in an attack, the state – in the form of the police – take responsibility for tracking and punishing the culprit. Traditional societies take a very different approach. Minor offences are normally settled by payment of compensation – the pig is the traditional currency in New Guinea – or by holding a feast to signal the re-establishment of friendly relations. For more serious offences, including murder, a family will seek to make alliances with others to help track down and kill their relative's murderer. This usually triggers an identical response from the murdered murderer's family and the process is repeated. The west's depersonalised system of justice looks a lot better from this perspective. 

But there is a cost, says Diamond, pointing to an example provided by his wife Marie's family.Looking for Christian Louboutin Women Shoes?

However, his mother, sister and a niece had survived, in hiding, for a further two years until a local gang had killed them, believing that, because they were Jews, they must possess gold. 

Clinton Kelly of "What Not to Wear" is happy to tell over 40s what not to wear ….ever. 

Yesterday,Great discounts on our huge range of Castelli Cycling clothing - shorts, jerseys, jackets & more. he told us about holiday glam, but today it's time to get to the nuts and bolts of dressing when you're a midlifer. 

Are we too old for short skirts? 

Should we watch out for v-necks that dip too low? 

Can we follow the trends? 

Clinton had all the answers along with some fun holiday entertaining tips. 

MIDLIFER CONCERN 1: IS MY SHIRT TOO LOW CUT? 

Clinton's Over 40 Fashion Tips: "There is a time in every woman's life when she asks herself, 'Am I too old to wear this?' If you start to ask yourself the question then it's time to start to take stock of your wardrobe and your image. I have four rules of fashion over 40. 

First, don't show too much cleavage during the day. You're setting yourself up to have a competition between your breasts and the breasts of a 25 year old standing next to you. Guess what? She's going to win because her breasts are newer.A moncler jackets men, often called a seat, is one of three contact points on an upright bicycle, the others being the pedals and the handlebars.

She has something to offer the world other than her breasts. At night, if you're going out with the love of your life you can show some cleavage, but do it for yourself." 

MIDLIFER CONCERN 2: IS MY SKIRT TOO SHORT? 

Clinton's Over 40 Fashion Tips: "Don't go too short when it comes to flashing leg. Stick to the top of the knee over 40. That's as high as you will go. Once again, a lot of women say, 'I'm 45 year old and have incredible legs, but less flashing is better. 

"You might have the best legs of any 45 year old woman, but if you're at a wedding waiting at the bar for a drink and a 22-year-old comes over showing her leg, you've just set yourself up for a competition you won't win." 

MIDLIER CONCERN 3: CAN I WEAR ALL THE HOT TRENDS 

Clinton's Over 40 Fashion Tips: "Never participate in any trend that involves the naval when you're over 40. There are women over 40 who wear those super low rise jeans and a top not long enough.2012 Specialized Cycling Components. You have this flesh belt sticking out, which just isn't good. 

"That isn't to say you can't wear trends, but look at the trends. If it's any trend a hooker might use for marketing then that's a trend to avoid over 40. Pick the trend that works for you. Just don't pick a trampy one.I'm guessing that the photos in the auctions are of an authentic moncler coats sold are fakes." 

MIDLIFER CONCERN 4: WHAT SHOULD I NEVER WEAR IN 2013? 

Clinton's Over 40 Fashion Tips: "I just can't stand the cross trainer worn as casual footwear. It's been bugging me for years, so let's nix it in 2013. There are so many comfortable shoes and boots out there. Wear cute sandals, low boots or ballet flats for casual comfort. Why are people running around town in a shoe that's meant for a step class? 

MIDLIFER CONCERN 5: HOW CAN I MAKE OVER MY OVER 40 MAN? 

Clinton's Over 40 Fashion Tips: "I think the American man is a lost cause! If you want to try, buy your man a beautiful pair of suede loafers, grat jeans and even a velvet jacket for the holiday season. In that outfit, your man will look better than 99.9 percent of men out there."

Kennedy may have catalysed a shift to informality when he removed his top hat, but there is much to be said for dressing up for the occasion, writes Tiffany Jenkins 

It all changed around the time that John F Kennedy went to his inauguration wearing a silk top hat, as was the norm, but took it off during the ceremony when he gave his address. Hatless, the new president looked modern and youthful. The men sitting around him, including the outgoing leader Dwight “Ike” Eisenhower, look as if they were from a different era. 

Kennedy's bare head is blamed for having killed the millinery industry. And yes, if you look at photographs of this period, an increasingly bareheaded population appears in public. Previously, the people were always topped with a fedora, a trilby, a bowler, or a flat cap. But Kennedy's impact is something of an exaggeration. As with any tipping point, he reinforced a trend that was at play. Hats were already being left at home on the shelf. 

Since that time, there has been a dramatic change in how we dress, and mostly this is a very good thing. It's all a lot less formal, with fewer sartorial rules. As well as going hatless, ladies no longer have to wear long white gloves. Corsets and girdles have been replaced by far less restrictive knickers and Spanx. Electric curling tongs have improved on the rollers they slept in overnight. 

Cheaper and manufactured clothing, with plastic zips, has made it easier to buy outfits that can be chucked in the washing machine and dryer with no fuss. 

There is no doubt that this has been liberating, that it has saved on dry cleaning bills and cut time wasting attention on our attire. My mother never tires of telling me about how complicated and uncomfortable it was to get dressed when everything had to be just right for every single occasion. You should be thankful, she says, when I suggest that not only did she look lovely, but wonder if there might have been a point to her clothing strictures.Red Canada Goose Citadel Parka i got and i love it. 

I am unimpressed with what passes as the dress code today. Wherever I go and whatever I do, work or play, at home or out and about, what people wear is pretty much the same no matter what they are up to. Casual or “smart casual” is the norm. Informality is the new uniform. But I don't want to wear it, finding it at best unimaginative,Go for fashion and luxury Canada Goose Heli-Arctic Parka Men for cheap price in our online store. and at worst a little deceptive. 

Few are ever well tailored in the office or at the bar. Occasionally you might catch a glimpse of a couple of extra sparkles at the theatre or the opera, but even when out somewhere special the clothing of choice, more often than not, seems to be jeans, jeans, and jeans. Given that the denim can cost hundreds of pounds, (or even 1,000 if you are peculiarly partial to certain designers), this cannot be a financially driven decision.

Two key features strike me about today's look.Shop the latest burberry bags on the world's largest fashion site. First, we present ourselves as always at play, as if our personality is far more important than what we do. Secondly, we try and look as if we are only on the cusp of adulthood. 

When I had a meeting with a 45 year old man, earlier this week, he wore a battered leather jacket, a witty T shirt and expensive trainers. It wasn't the best look for someone beyond the first flush of youth. It couldn't disguise his greying hair, and a bit of a belly. And given this was a professional conversation you have to ask why he didn't feel the need to look like he'd made an effort. 

Why did he want to give the appearance of being on his day off? There is something verging on the disrespectful about it, not just to me, but to his vocation. Newsreaders are the worst for this, especially the women. As they tell us about economic depression, war, and tragedy, they look as if they are on their way out to a cocktail bar. There is no gravitas here. The lack of seriousness shown to what they are talking about and their role is concerning. 

The contemporary dress code of always relaxed and youthful doesn't do it for me. It's not that I want to spend more time getting ready, or shell out much more money. It's that there were reasons for dressing up in particular ways, for particular occasions and events, rather than dressing down most of time. Buying expensive shoes doesn't count,The best online shop for sale the hot sell authentic Ralph Lauren Polo. by the way, that is just a small part of the outfit, and rarely sensible.

In Greece, the far right has taken advantage of public anxiety caused by hyper-austerity, stoking xenophobia and violence. But the country's experience is by no means unique. 

It's Saturday morning in Athens and the players are taking up their positions for a familiar ritual. Around the National Garden, behind the Greek parliament, fortified police vans lie in wait, their occupants playing cards or chatting on mobile phones. Along the streets that stretch north from Syntagma Square, in front of the parliament building, there are more police, standing on street corners in riot gear, drinking iced coffee and idly watching groups of tourists or Athenians running Saturday errands. Crisis or no, this is still a bustling capital city. 

Next door to the National Archaeological Museum, the courtyard of which is peopled with ancient statues rescued from a shipwreck, limbs eroded and faces barnacled, is the Athens Polytechnic. Inside the gates, a crowd of people – elderly men, mothers with teenage children, twentysomething couples – has gathered to lay red and white carnations in front of a memorial stone. Around them, students are making banners, leafleting and gathering into groups according to political affiliation. Later, they will march noisily into the centre of Athens. For now,Cheap Yves Saint Laurent louis vuitton borse High Quality Replica Bags. however, the atmosphere is quiet, reverential,Buy High Quality Canada Goose Men's Tremblant Jacket Online . if a little tense. 

Demonstrations have become commonplace in Athens, so much so that people talk of “protest fatigue”. In the past month alone, there have been two general strikes, plus another walkout on 14 November as part of a pan-European day of action. On the night of 7 November, police tear-gassed protesters in Syntagma Square, while inside the parliament MPs debated a new wave of public spending cuts and privatisation demanded by the troika – the EU, the IMF and the European Central Bank – in return for another slice of bailout money. Opposition is such that the measures are being implemented by ministerial decree –emergency legislation reminiscent of Germany in the 1930s. And it's hurting: Eurostat reports that 31 per cent of the population, 3.5 million people, are living near or below the poverty line and 15 per cent cannot afford “basic commodities”. Greece is a laboratory for austerity, the most extreme iteration of policies that are being imposed by governments from London to Lisbon. 

On Saturday 17 November, the protest is of a different kind. It is the date on which Greece commemorates the fall of the military junta that ruled the country from 1967 to 1974. On this day in 1973, a tank burst through the gates of the Athens Polytechnic, which had been occupied by students protesting against the military regime and demanding the right to elect their leaders. This direct democracy had been too much for the colonels to bear and 24 people were killed in the crackdown that followed. The massacre spelled the beginning of the end for their regime, which fell a year later. The 17th has long been a symbolic date for the Greek left but in the past few years the ranks of marchers have been swelled by a new generation. 

As the students begin to form into blocs, stamping their feet in unison, the old chant of those who fought the junta goes up: “Bread, education, freedom!” Now, though, it comes with a reply: “The dictatorship is not over!” 

Manolis Glezos, white-haired and dressed in a sharp,The high quality Canada Goose Banff Parka women will last you for seasons to come. powder- blue jacket, leans forward across the desk and jabs a finger. “I want to write an ‘I accuse' to Britain. During the war, we stood by them as allies. So where's Britain now?” 

At the age of 90, Glezos knows Greece's recent history intimately. In 1941, he and a comrade tore down the swastika flag from the Acropolis, at the height of the Nazi occupation. They were imprisoned and tortured. When civil war erupted in 1946, between the communist- led resistance partisans and a rightwing government propped up by Britain and the US, he was sentenced to death. He was sent to prison camps twice more in the years that followed – along with thousands of other leftists – and eventually forced into exile when the junta came to power. Yet Glezos is more than a symbol of resistance; he is back in front-line politics, as an MP. 

I meet Glezos in his office at the Greek parliament, which is staffed by a couple of young assistants who are busy posting copies of his speeches on Facebook. (The most recent one has been “liked” 680 times, Glezos tells me.) He is an MP for Syriza, the coalition of radical left-wing parties that has been the main bene - ficiary of public discontent. In the past three years, it has gained momentum as support has drained away from the centre-left Pasok, which once promised Greeks a welfare state and national self-determination but now finds itself in coalition with the right-wing New Democracy, administering the troika's demands. In May's general election, Syriza won an unprecedented 17 per cent of the vote. At a second election, called when the government failed to hold a coalition together, its vote rose to 27 per cent and it narrowly missed an outright victory. It is now the main opposition party and most opinion polls put it on course to win power the next time elections are held. 

For the first time since 2008, Europe faces the real possibility of a government whose stated aim is, as Glezos tells me, to “cancel” the debt, halting the programme of spending cuts and demanding that the troika renegotiate terms.Latest Discount moncler jackets men Online! “Two and a half thousand years ago, an ancient writer, Menander, said: ‘Loans make people slaves.' You can forgive other people if they don't know this but Greeks are not allowed not to know this.” 

According to Procopis Papastratis, a professor at Panteion University in Athens, Syriza's success has sent a shockwave through the Greek political establishment. “The left terrifies a lot of people .Scarpe Hogan Interactive 2012 Donna Marrone replica shoes Outlet . . . They say that if the left comes, they will slaughter us or they will take our houses like Stalin did in the Soviet Union. The big businesses say that they will leave Greece and they say to those who work for them that if you vote Syriza, you will be unemployed because we will take our companies and go.”
