Florida Iron Doors is a relatively young company created in 2013. With a background in construction, the company has a unique perspective that shows in each of their custom doors. From front entry doors to exterior French doors, their handcrafted doors can be made to each customer's satisfaction.
Customer data had to be entered into multiple systems, which created data integrity problems.
They were using several spreadsheets to manage their CRM. Without a proper CRM system that could manage leads and the sales pipeline, the sales follow-up process was difficult to handle.
The Inventory software they were using was not integrated with the Sales Software, which meant that all information between the two had to be managed manually. This created inefficiency in daily processes and increased the likelihood of data inaccuracy.
There was a vast disconnection between the Sales Department, the Warehouse and the Delivery Team. This combined with the fact that they were using spreadsheets to manage deliveries, was creating critical errors in servicing their customers needs.
With the fully integrated solution they wanted, the days of data accuracy issues were behind them. Now they have a complete information flow.
With Odoo CRM they could now easily follow up with their customers as the CRM system allows them to build and manage their pipelines.
With the integration between Odoo Sales and Odoo Inventory, all transfer of information from the Sales Team to the Warehouse Team had been streamlined. This increased the overall efficiency, and in combination with Odoo CRM this has also greatly improved their end customers experience.
They now have an integrated flow, from keeping track of leads, prospects and customers with the Odoo CRM, to managing quotations and invoices with Odoo Sales and Odoo Invoicing, managing their stock levels with Odoo Inventory, and their finances with Odoo Accounting.
After having decided to move to Odoo Online and taking the additional Success Pack, It has been an amazing experience for Florida Iron Doors. They are very happy with the excellent customer service, and the assistance and support of their Account Manager, Igor, and Functional Consultant, Stephanie. With Odoo Online and the Odoo team, they were able to accomplish in a mere 8 weeks, what they had been unable to accomplish in a year and a half with Odoo Community and Odoo 10 Enterprise. Once everything settled with the Odoo Online solution implemented, Florida Iron Doors is thrilled with their flexible, out-of-the-box solution, which they only made a few minor customizations to. Overall they felt they'd received a high quality solution, with outstanding customer service for a reasonable price.
Let us help you get the solution you want and further boost your success! Become an Odoo user and you could be our next success story!
Florida Iron Doors really became a serious player in the Iron Doors Industry when they passed the Miame Dade Hurricane testing and the water infiltration test, but their real game changer came in 2016. That year, Home Depot accepted Florida Iron Doors as one of its three Iron Door vendors. This was a huge deal as Home Depot is the largest Home Improvement Retailer in the United States with net sales of $94 billion for the fiscal year 2016.

Obama thinks he can keep his blackberry
Obama is finding it difficult to give up his BlackBerry.
(CNN) - President-elect Barack Obama told CNN Friday he thinks he may be able to "hang onto" his BlackBerry after all.
In an interview with CNN's John King, he talked about the privacy issues that threaten his ability to maintain normal communications – and his optimism that, unlike his predecessor, he's going to be able to keep using e-mail after he enters the Oval Office.
Catch the full interview this Sunday on the premiere of State of the Union at 9 am ET.
Then there's the BlackBerry.
"You like these," said CNN's John King. "I was just with you before this, and you had a couple of them. And there are a lot of people who say, because this will end up in the presidential library, because you don't have privacy any more. Your life's about to change Tuesday noon. You have to give this up."
"Yes," conceded Obama.
"You going to do it?" asked King.
"I think we're going to be able to beat this back," Obama responded. "....I think we're going to be able to hang onto one of these. Now, my working assumption, and this is not new, is that everything I write on e-mail could end up being on CNN. So I make sure that - to think before I press 'send.'"
Obama – who has held pre-inauguration off the record sitdowns with reporters and columnists from across the political spectrum, but not yet the journalists of the New York Times - also took an offhand swipe at that paper's editorial page.
King asked Obama about recent criticism of his pick for Treasury Secretary, Timothy Geithner. "The New York Times, for example, has an editorial today saying, not the right guy for the job at this time of economic peril," said King. "They say this controversy has tainted his ability to command respect and instill confidence."
Replied Obama: "Well, you know, The New York Times editorial page has a lot of opinions, as does The Wall Street Journal editorial page, and some of them are better than others. This wasn't a good one."
King's full interview with Obama airs tonight at 6 pm in The Situation Room.

A grand display of a complete lack of understanding of security issues. Unfortunately, his lack of understanding endangers us all.
January 17, 2009 11:36 am at 11:36 am |
You are too good to be true Mr. Obama ...
You even care about a tiny phone, when the country was (is) being looted of our tax dollars for the last 8 years.
Just waiting for the 20th to see some real change. It could be a very bumpy ride for you in the first few years.
Good Luck Mr. President. You (we) can do it.

Firstly I have to say I have an axe to grind. I run a specialist business selling electric bikes. To really get things on the table let's set the scene. Sale of e-bikes is the fastest growing sector in the UK bike industry. In Germany one in every three full sized bikes sold is an e-bike. Over 50 per cent of the bike industry turnover in the Benelux countries is attributed to power assisted bikes. So this is not a fringe 'fad' thing for sad old people who can't make an effort or are past being able to 'do it right'. E-bikes are here, are growing and are in use, like mobile phones, shopping centres, emails and tablets.
You find that the alleged keen cyclist, keen to dismiss electric bikers as 'cheats' doesn't cycle at all and hasn't for many years. They often carry a fair bit of weight and could do with exercise, any exercise, urgently.
So who benefits from electric bikes? Anybody. Even keen road or mountain bikers have other halves who are reluctant to cycle, but would welcome e assist. In this way the keenie can have cycling away breaks, days out, family outings, etc, and not feel guilty about going off and doing their own thing.
E-bikes enable people to rediscover cycling, reduce commuting cost and get around day-to-day for shopping, visiting friends or popping down to the pub.
There is no 'stigma' and do not need apology and shame attached. How better than to be out and about, independent and energised sooner than sit in front of a TV, sit in a car, bus or train? Please do not damn the category and users as the people who buy, use and enjoy e-bikes. They are savvy, out there and enjoy them. These days they also look cool and are brimful of clever technology which enables you to benefit from as much or as little e assist as you need. Pedal as normal with no assist on flat terrain then choose for more when you get on a more severe hill. The e power pedal assist enables you to flatten your ride but still get the benefit and exhilaration of exercise.
If someone is a lapsed cyclist or carries a niggling injury e-bikes are ideal for getting going again and rediscovering the joys of cycling – without the barriers and pain. 'Real' cyclists boast of miles covered, equipment, bought and tales of daring do. These active fit cyclists may not be the primary market for electric bikes but their scathing dismissiveness of electric bikes is damaging and (dare I say it) comes from a form of sheer arrogance.
I love it when people say "it's cheating" because then I am able to let them have it with both barrels. When I have finished my rant they probably still have their views and think of the shame and difficulty of declaring that they have "one foot in the grave" if they bought an electric bike. Funnily when they try an e-bike they say: "I didn't think it would be as good as this". An electric bike cannot be imagined only experienced. Go on, make my day!

If you own a Tegra 3 device, then there's a good chance that games had at least something to do with your purchase decision. For good reason, too: the Tegra 3 is one of the most powerful mobile processors on the planet, and its 12-core GPU can push out some of the best gaming content that we've ever seen on a mobile device.
As a result, we're all looking for console-like quality from our tablets - and we already have a few titles, such as Shadowgun and Dark Meadow, that fit the bill.

C Is for 'Cancer' — But Also for 'Cure'
Diccon Hyatt
Ever since the first vaccines were created in the 1700s, doctors have been finding ways to force the body's own immune system to fight disease. One of the more difficult targets for immunotherapy has been cancer, but recent advances in the field have turned immuno-oncology into one of the most promising frontiers in medicine.
At last these treatments have made their way out of labs and into the hands of doctors and are now saving the lives of cancer patients. Immuno-oncology is also big business for pharmaceutical makers in the Route 1 corridor. Companies like Bristol-Myers Squibb and Advaxis are at the forefront of the field that has become one of the hottest sectors in biotech in the past several years. And at the Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey, researchers are field testing the new arsenal in the war against cancer.
Dr. Janice Mehnert is a medical oncologist in the melanoma and soft tissue oncology program and director of the Phase 1 investigation program at the Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey. She has personally treated hundreds of patients using the latest immunotherapy drugs. In a recent trial she tested an antibody called Pembrolizumab, made by Merck and marketed as Keytruda, on a range of different types of cancer. She has seen results from the trials of Keytruda and other drugs that have made her use a word that is rarely, if ever, uttered by doctors who treat cancer.
"When you treat advanced cancer, the word 'cure' is not used," she says. "You are not used to seeing responses that last." Like most oncologists, Mehnert doesn't usually use the term "cure" because standard treatments suppress cancer without killing it off completely. Most of the time, the word "remission" is used after a successful cycle of chemotherapy. The cancer may be dormant, but cancer survivors know that the disease might still be there, waiting to come back. With immuno-oncology, Mehnert is cautiously using the C-word. "While not all patients respond, if you are one of those patients that does respond, it could last for a very long time. We're maybe even thinking it's a cure."
Keytruda has so far been approved by the FDA for certain kinds of melanoma, lung cancer, and head and neck cancer.
The immune system regularly detects and destroys cancer cells. But in the case of cancerous tumors, the cells are able to disguise themselves from white blood cells and avoid attack. "When a tumor develops in your body, generally it's because your immune system is asleep at the wheel," Mehnert explains. "Some insult happens, and your immune surveillance goes off and your tumor is allowed to develop. It's called immune tolerance," she says. "The immune system becomes tolerant of the invader for some reason, and when that happens, sometimes tumors get flooded with tumor-fighting lymphocytes that are kept quiet and inactive. Immune therapy sort of wakes those lymphocytes up."
Immuno-oncology research has focused on determining exactly how the cancer cells make themselves invisible to lymphocytes and finding ways to defeat the chemical disguise.
Keytruda targets the interaction of two proteins, PD-1 (programmed cell death) and PD-L1. These two proteins are what scientists call an "immune checkpoint" that stops white blood cells from attacking healthy tissue. By blocking this interaction, the Pembrolizumab allows the patient's own cells to wipe out the tumors. When it works, it's so effective that Mehnert flirts with the term "cure." Furthermore, it seems to work for many different kinds of cancer.
"It works with multiple different tumor types and multiple different diseases," Mehnert says. "That's one of the things that's so exciting about the field. We're seeing responses that are durable, without a tremendous amount of side effects, although there are side effects that are significant."
But the downside is that it only works for about 11 to 30 percent of patients. Part of Mehnert's research is figuring out in advance which patients will respond to the antibody, and which won't. The studies suggest so far that people who have high levels of the PD-L1 protein will do best with the treatment. But it's not easy to measure.
"That is a question that a lot of us are working on very diligently," Mehnert says. "Some people think the mutations within a tumor may predict a patient's response." One hypothesis is that cancers that are the result of mutation, such as lung cancer caused by tobacco smoke and skin cancer caused by sun damage, are the most responsive to treatment. "But that's not a perfect hypothesis yet," Mehnert says. Another possibility is that patients with microsatellite instability are more prone to getting cancer, especially colorectal cancer, but that they might also respond better to immunotherapy.
A third possibility is that patients whose tumors are virally driven may be responsive to immunotherapy treatments. But none of that has been proven, and much work lies ahead for Mehnert and the other doctors conducting clinical trials all around the world. "It may be a combination of all three," Mehnert says. "It's a huge undertaking to study this."
And that's just Pembrolizumab. She is also running a trial of Talimogene, made by Amgen. Talimogene is actually a custom-made virus that is directly injected into tumors. Rutgers is studying the effects of this treatment combined with immunotherapy, and Mehnert says they are getting "interesting results" from the combination.
They are also testing Pemrolizumab in combination with various other treatments including chemotherapy and other novel agents. Yet another drug targets IL-10, an anti-inflammatory receptor. "We have a spectacular menu to work with," Mehnert says. "We'd love to get the word out about what we're doing here."
The arsenal of immuno-oncology is growing rapidly, and several Route 1 companies are at the forefront. Bristol-Myers Squibb has led the field with Opdivo, which has been shown in clinical trials to extend the lives of patients with certain cancers including malignant melanoma. In November Opdivo was approved for the most common type of head and neck cancer. An earlier trial of Opdivo as a first line of defense against lung cancer proved no better than standard treatment, however. (Currently the drug is a second-line treatment, to be used after conventional therapy has failed.) In that trial the drug was tested on patients with relatively low levels of PD-1, the protein that is thought to be a key for the drug's effectiveness.
BMS is investing heavily in immuno-oncology for its future business. According to company reports, Immuno-oncology research makes up a large part of its $4 billion annual R&D budget. To follow up with Opdivo, the company has many anti-cancer products in the pipeline, each codenamed CheckMate.
"We have a comprehensive clinical portfolio of investigational and approved immuno-oncology agents, many of which were discovered and developed by our scientists," the company said in a recent statement. "We pioneered the research leading to the first regulatory approval for the combination of two immuno-oncology agents and continue to study the role of combinations in cancer."
Currently its three approved immunotherapy agents are Opdivo, Yerevoy, and Empliciti, delivered alone or in combination. BMS expects to have eight additional agents in clinical trials by the end of the year. The company says it is currently running 50 clinical trials for 20 tumor types.
The company appears to be in something of an immuno-oncology arms race with rival Merck, whose Keytruda is the main competitor to Opdivo at the moment. Other top pharmaceutical companies AstraZeneca, Pfizer, and Roche all have immune-oncology drugs in the pipeline as well.
Advaxis, based on College Road East, has three immuno-oncology agents under development. While the larger pharma companies are targeting the most common types of cancer, smaller companies like Advaxis are using their limited resources to pursue "orphan" markets where there is currently no effective treatment. Advaxis' first agent is meant for late-stage recurrent cervical cancer caused by the HPV virus. It uses genetically modified bacteria that alert the immune system to the presence of a tumor, training it to develop anti-tumor antibodies in a process that is similar to what a vaccine does. (U.S. 1, September 11, 2013.)
Advaxis is a good illustration of the potential of immunotherapy within the wider biotech sector. In 2013, according to the trade magazine Stat News, the company was almost out of money and unable to make payroll for its six employees. But new CEO Daniel J. O'Connor was able to successfully turn the company around thanks to a successful clinical trial of its anti-cervical cancer treatment and a deal with Amgen that brought in $70 million in cash and stock. In short, a risky bet on immunotherapy for cancer paid off.
Looking at the picture worldwide, many companies are pouring billions into numerous new anti-cancer immunotherapies. Not all of them will work, and some will duplicate others' efforts. But Mehnert and other scientists believe the end result could be a revolution in the way cancer is treated.
"Whenever there's a hot drug out there, most companies try to develop something similar — the 'me too' phenomenon," Mehnert says. "But competition is not a bad thing. It's not bad to have smaller biotechs come along and concentrate on a space no one thinks about."
It's not just pharmaceutical companies making advancements, either. Long before anyone realized immunotherapy could be profitable, scientists in academic settings funded by public money were hard at work looking for ways to cure cancer. In fact, the history of immunotherapy goes back further than most people would think.
In 1796 Edward Jenner invented the world's first vaccine when he administered the relatively benign cowpox disease to healthy people as a way of preventing deadly smallpox. Further research over the centuries led to more vaccines that wiped out smallpox entirely and effectively combated polio, whooping cough, measles, and other once-common scourges.
In the late 1980s Dr. Steven Rosenberg, working at the National Cancer Institute in Maryland, began using immune cells to treat patients who had melanoma. The techniques have become vastly more complex, but the basic idea is the same: activate the body's natural defenses to destroy the invader.
For Mehnert testing new immuno-oncology therapies is more than just a scientific endeavor. As a New Jersey native, she believes she is helping her own community. Mehnert grew up in Bradley Beach and now lives in Holmdel. She studied biology and English as an undergraduate at Rutgers and the University of Sussex in Britain. She went to medical school at UMDNJ-Robert Wood Johnson, completing a year of lab research at the National Institutes of Health.
Growing up on the Jersey shore, where skin cancer from sun exposure was prevalent, had an effect on Mehnert's career. Her mother was a teacher and her father worked for Federal Carbide. "I was incredibly close to my grandmother, who was ill a lot while I was a teenager," Mehnert says. "I never understood anything that was going on, and that was a powerful motivating factor for when I went into medicine. I liked science; it was something I was good at and interested in. My uncle actually developed lung cancer when I was in medical school, and that was the key point where I knew I was going to go into oncology. He didn't get into clinical trials."
Mehnert says many patients don't have the information they need about clinical trials, which in some cases could be life saving.
"It's so important for patients to demand information about clinical trials. There are patients whose lives were saved for no other reason than they got into an immunotherapy study."
Mehnert says ideally, doctors would inform patients about clinical trials that they might be eligible for. Currently, however, it is up to patients to seek out clinical trials if conventional therapy doesn't work for them. "Patients need to be educated," Mehnert says.

, né le  à Kumamoto au Japon, mort le  est un judoka, considéré  comme l'un des plus grands de tous les temps.

Biographie

À l'âge de 16 ans, après six ans de judo, Kimura est promu au rang de . Il avait vaincu à la suite six adversaires (chacun possédant un grade de  ou ). En 1935, à l'âge de 18 ans, il devint le plus jeune godan (ceinture noire ) lorsqu'il défie huit adversaires consécutifs au Kodokan (siège du principal organisme de judo). Le succès remarquable de Kimura peut être en partie attribué au régime fanatique de son entraînement. À ce qu'on rapporte, il n'a perdu que quatre combats de judo au cours de sa vie, tous se déroulant en 1935. Il envisagea d'abandonner le judo après ces défaites, mais, grâce aux encouragements de ses amis, il recommença à s'entraîner. Toutes les nuits, il s'exerçait contre un arbre à osoto gari, projection basique. Après six mois, sa technique était telle que les randoris quotidiens ou les sessions de joute dans les différents dojos se terminèrent par des commotions chez dix personnes. Ses collègues étudiants lui demandaient fréquemment de ne pas utiliser sa technique d'osoto gari peu orthodoxe. À l'apogée de sa carrière, l'entraînement quotidien de Kimura comprenait un millier de pompes ainsi que neuf heures de pratique. Il est promu au rang de  à l'âge de 30 ans, rang auquel il se cramponna au cours de ses disputes avec les représentants du Kodokan, sur le fait qu'il était devenu un combattant professionnel, refusant de restituer le drapeau (prix) des championnats japonais de judo, et sur le fait qu'il avait obtenu ses grades de dan alors qu'il se trouvait au Brésil. Kimura débuta également le karaté dans sa recherche des arts martiaux, croyant que le karaté pourrait renforcer ses mains. Il s'entraîna tout d'abord pendant deux ans à ce que l'on connaît aujourd'hui comme le karaté Shotokan, sous la tutelle de son fondateur Gichin Funakoshi, pour se tourner ensuite vers le karaté Gōjū-ryū, aux côtés de So-Nei Chu (un élève de la légende du karaté Gōjū-ryū Gogen Yamaguchi), et devint par la suite un instructeur assistant dans son dojo.

Combat contre Hélio Gracie
En , Masahiko Kimura, alors âgé de , prend part à un combat au Brésil face à Hélio Gracie, membre de la célèbre famille Gracie faisant la promotion de leur style de jiu-jitsu basé fortement sur les techniques de soumission au sol.
Cette rencontre prend la forme d'un match de judo ne pouvant être conclu que par soumission.

Pendant le combat, Kimura projette Gracie à maintes reprises via des techniques de judo : ippon-seoi-nage, o-soto-gari, o-uchi-gari, uchi-mata ou encore harai-goshi. À ce qu'on rapporte, Kimura voulait ainsi faire perdre connaissance à son adversaire.
Cependant, la surface de l'aire de combat était apparemment trop molle pour que cela n'advienne. Kimura inflige également de douloureuses techniques de lutte par étranglement, telle que kuzure-kami-siho-gatame, kesa-gatame et sankaku-jime.
Finalement, à la treizième minute du combat, Kimura se positionne afin d'effectuer un clé d'épaule connue sous le nom de ude-garami inversé. Gracie refuse de se soumettre, même après que son bras ait cassé, contraignant Kimura à maintenir la prise sur le bras cassé de Gracie. À ce moment, Carlos Gracie, aîné de Hélio, jette la serviette afin de mettre un terme au comba et préserver la santé de son frère.

En , Hélio confesse lors d'une interview avoir perdu connaissance plus tôt dans le match, mais avoir reprit ses esprits après que Kimura ait relâché sa prise.

En hommage à la victoire de Kimura, la technique du ude-garami inversé est depuis souvent nommée kimura au jiu-jitsu brésilien puis dans les arts martiaux mixtes.

Kimura décrit l'événement comme ceci :

Kimura et le catch professionnel

Au début des années 1950, Kimura fut invité par Rikidōzan à prendre part à des combats en tant que catcheur professionnel. Ils pratiquèrent tous deux en équipe et en tant qu'adversaires, mais Kimura n'était pas aussi coté ou populaire que ne l'était Rikidōzan, la raison principale en étant leur propre rivalité (Rikidōzan, qui était Zainichi,  se serait senti dans une situation conflictuelle ou peu sûre à être en compétition pour la publicité avec un Japonais). Le combat opposant Rikidōzan à Kimura pour le titre de champion de catch professionnel poids lourds était le premier match de haut-niveau opposant deux lutteurs professionnels. Le combat, aux dires de Kimura, était censé se terminer par un match nul et appeler une série de revanches. Mais Rikidōzan, que cela eut été prémédité ou le fait d'une improvisation, frappa (commençant à combattre réellement) Kimura jusqu'à lui faire perdre connaissance par l'entremise d'une série de frappes à main ouverte, coups de poing, coups de pied (parmi lesquels certains à l'aine), et remporta le match par KO. Kimura n'eut jamais l'opportunité d'une revanche.

Kimura décrit l'événement comme suit :

Kimura a créé l'IPWF (International Pro Wrestling Force soit la Force internationale de catch professionnel), fondation ayant son siège à Kumamoto, en tant que filiale locale de l'Association japonaise de catch (JWA).
Bien que la JWA ait par la suite repris les choses en main, l'IPWF est considérée comme étant la première organisation à avoir introduit des catcheurs mexicains en lutte libre.

Plusieurs biographes soulignent que sa carrière de catcheur débuta peu après que l'on eut diagnostiqué une tuberculose chez son épouse, et on suppute qu'il entama cette carrière afin de subvenir à ses soins de santé. Car effectivement, le coût des soins de santé étaient supérieurs aux revenus d'un instructeur de police, seuls revenus qu'il possédât avant de devenir catcheur professionnel.

Kimura vs Valdemar Santana

Kimura retourne au Brésil en 1959 pour sa dernière exhibition de judo / catch professionnel. Il est alors opposé à Valdemar Santana dans un combat réel (sans chorégraphie) de soumission. Santana était un champion dans la discipline du Gracie jujutsu ainsi qu'en capoeira. Santana mesurait 1,83 m pour 93 kg. Santana avait au préalable combattu et vaincu Hélio Gracie à deux reprises, les deux combats durant plus de trois heures. Kimura projeta Santana par seoi-nage, hane-goshi et O-Soto-Gari. Il effectua ensuite son célèbre ude-garami, remportant ainsi le combat.
Santana demanda une revanche, selon les règles du vale tudo (le combat précédent étant pour sa part limité à de la lutte). Cette fois-ci, l'issue en fut un match nul, après 40 minutes d'un combat au cours duquel les deux protagonistes perdirent du sang. Sous la pression des promoteurs et de la police, Kimura prit part à ce match en dépit d'un genou blessé, et en allant contre l'avis des médecins.

Mort

Kimura s'éteint le  des suites d'un cancer du poumon, à l'âge de 74 ans.

Criminal cartel prosecution and civil leniency: international perspectives on irreconcilable differences?
Controversy has arisen over the required disclosure of privileged material obtained during leniency applications, particularly in criminal cartel cases. Authorities are reviewing their penalties and leniency policies to identify how best to ensure the benefits of the leniency system, while accommodating individuals' rights and judicial disclosure orders. Experts from several jurisdictions will debate these issues with a view to identifying the main risks and opportunities for reform.
- disclosure of privileged material?
- witnesses - to interview or not?
- prospects for leniency systems: harm, or harmony?

Its a full package of fun exciting moments of planing and strategizing! The staff is super Friendly the and if there are any issues we will find and execute the problem.


Julien (5 yrs old) is a pretty typical boy; he is completely obsessed with super hero's, and right now the Dark Knight tops that obsession.
For 2012 Halloween, Julien decided that this year he wants to be Batman. When we were perusing the website, he saw one for the Dark Knight and started bouncing around, super excited - that was the costume he wanted. I made sure to have him look at all of the options available, but he had his mind set - and wouldn't budge.
I placed the order, and we waited. Shipping was quick and when the costume arrived - he was so happy and couldn't wait to get it opened and try it on. Included with the costume is the jumpsuit with attached boot tops, cape, belt and mask. I was slightly worried about the mask, but I tried it on myself and there is no vision obstruction. The sizing is perfect for Julien, and the cape velcros around the neck, goes just to the floor; I wish the velcro was slightly larger, but it still works just fine.
Don't forget to connect with the SuperCenter for Costumes on Facebook.
Awesome! We still need to figure out what our oldest is going to be. It was so much easier when he didn't have a say. LOL!
I loved that movie and something tells me my little guy might want to be Batman for Halloween this year!
This is such a coincidence, my son has become a huge Batman fan within the last month or so, he's already told me he wants to be Batman this year! Your little guy looks super cute as Batman!
wow.. you are really ahead of the game... good job!
You can see how excited he is, right through the mask! Nice find, mama!

Why You Still Need CDs If You're Planning On Doing These 3 Things
Unestablished Artists Should Try This Instead Of Touring
What To Do After You Release An Album
5 Creative Places To Pitch Your Music
What Gives A Song Its Value?
Asking what makes a song valuable in 2018 seems sort of silly. With music streaming and video platforms displaying listener stats in real time, one doesn't have to look much further than that to see whether a piece of music is valuable or not, right? If your metric for a song's success is purely based off of how many times it's bought, listened to, or downloaded, then no. But what makes a song valuable, in my opinion, is much deeper and more complex than what can be quantified with numbers. To figure out what makes music valuable, listeners and musicians alike need to look past the numbers.

The Single Vs Album Dilemma
The idea of a band focusing their energy on writing and releasing singles instead of an EP or album wasn't taken seriously a decade ago, but it's now a strategy that countless artists are adopting. But while pumping out single after single has its advantages, something gets lost when a band throws its energy into writing a song or two at a time instead of an entire album.
So, what's the best decision for you? Here are a couple of good questions to ask to find out if you should write a single vs an album:

About The Money: Music Distribution As An Investment
Imagine you're a new, independent artist looking to test the waters of the business they call music. You have a soul-sucking day job, but hey, gotta pay the rent, right? Soon you'd love to quit and make music full time, but first you need to get some momentum going. You bedroom-produced a handful of songs and you're ready to get streamed. Got $50 to drop on digital distribution for those five songs? "Ayyyyyy, I haven't even bought a nice microphone yet!"
Do you really want to begin your career hundreds of dollars in the hole?
You can't catch your dreams if you go broke trying. That's why we're dethroning The Old Way with Select Distribution, the smart, budget-friendly way to get your music on the biggest streaming platforms in the world. The Old Way requires you to spend at least $10 per song and $50 per album to get on "hundreds" of streaming sites, apps, and stores. That's a fine offer for the more established artist with thousands of fans. That guy is confident he'll make his money back in a few months. But the up-and-comer, well, she needs to be a bit more choosy with her money. Want to do some quick math?

Digital Distribution Checklist: Getting Your Release Ready for iTunes, Spotify, and More
Getting your music onto services like iTunes and Spotify is crucial to an Artist's success, but the guidelines and requirements can be tricky to navigate. Spotify album art size, iTunes cover artwork, and performer's rights have especially rigid guidelines, and failure to comply can prevent your music from making it onto these platforms.
We are proud to offer our artists a quick and affordable method of digital distribution, and we want to help make sure that your release won't get rejected by the retailers' strict guidelines.
With that in mind, we put together a final checklist to make sure that your release meets those requirements and doesn't end up delayed. Watch the following video, or check out the highlights below for ownership guidelines, Spotify album art regulations, and much more.

Top 3 things musicians need in 2013
Hey musicians, what are your resolutions for 2013? Want to release a new album? Find new fans? Help others? Make it big or just pay the bills? If you're like a lot of Reverb artists, it's probably all of the above.
Well, listening to you (and a couple of million other musicians around the world) we've boiled it down to three things:
Get more fans
Sell more music
Am I right? In that case, ReverbNation's got you covered. Follow our advice below to start the new year off right:
1. GET MORE FANS
Think about it. You already spend money on instruments, on food and gas when you're touring, on beer when you're gigging. You should be thinking of promotion as just as important as putting gas in the van, just as rewarding as a cold one after a show.
I have a friend who spent almost $10,000 on his new album, but then he didn't do anything to promote it. Does it sound familiar?
Maybe it's not the investment that's holding you back. A lot of bands just don't know where to begin. That's precisely why we developed Promote It. We've made it drop dead simple to create custom ads to promote your music on all the sites music fans flock to: Pandora, YouTube, Facebook, Billboard, MTV and hundreds of others. Trust me when I say, you WANT to be where they are. Plus, it's completely affordable — campaigns start at just $5/day. And if you've never tried Promote It, we'll even let you run your first campaign absolutely FREE.
"With Promote It, I can get the same type of promotion as a major label and still be on an indie budget. Promote It is such an easy and effective way to get new fans for my music."
– The Honorifics
Whatever you've got going on — a new album release, a new song or a new video (coming soon) — we know that Promote It is the best and easiest way to get the word out there, get heard and gather in new fans. If you can think of any better way, let us know in the comments!
Try Promote It now. Free trial available for first time Promote It customers >>
2. SELL MORE MUSIC… WHILE HELPING OTHERS
Have you heard? We've just launched a new program called Music for Good and we couldn't be more excited! For the first time ever, you can now choose to sell your songs directly from your Reverb profile.
Artists choosing to participate select a charity they'd like to support and for every $1.29 song they sell, half the proceeds go to their new non-profit partner.
Music For Good is the new way to sell music.
We've never done anything like this before, but it's really a natural. We know that musicians like to support good causes — whether it's an indie band playing a local fundraiser or a major celebrity effort for disaster relief. Musicians have influence, they have power. Can you imagine what 2.5 million ReverbNation musicians can do?? Together we know you can have a huge impact fighting disease, hunger, poverty and more — all while spreading beautiful music.
PLUS — and this is very important — we believe this partnership will help every artist sell more music. It gives people a reason to pull out the credit card on music again. It kicks piracy in the butt!
The way we see it (and we think you'll see it too), the Music For Good program accomplishes two things: it supports charities AND it gets fans to spend money on music again. It's good for charities and it's good for your wallet. As a bonus, it's good for your soul.
Are you an artist, but not on Reverb?
Already on Reverb?
Music fans: Want to buy some music and help a charity?
This one's a no brainer. If you already use one of ReverbNation's premium services (press kits, digital distributions, newsletters, etc), or even paid services from another site, the smart thing is to switch to the Pro Bundle.
For less than $20 a month, you get ALL of the core marketing services you need to manage your career and more. Yes — digital press kit, email templates, a mobile app, widgets, plus digital distribution that expands every year — while the price stays the same. Holy smokes. That's less than topping off your gas tank, buying Starbucks lattes for your friends, or getting a large 3-topping pizza in New York!
The Pro Bundle costs less per month than a large 3-topping pizza from Domino's in NYC.
You'll save mega bucks AND because it's all in one spot, you'll save time. I mean, if you prefer, you could go to Sonicbids for your press kit, Tunecore for your digital distribution, and FanBridge for your newsletter, Mobile Roadie for your mobile app, etc etc… but why go through the trouble of logging in at eight sites different sites when you can use just one? Plus you'll get the added bonus of having just one super great support team to answer any questions. Like I said, it's a no brainer.
Start marketing your music now >>
That's it, folks. We truly believe the tools mentioned above will help you achieve your marketing goals in 2013. Our mission is — and always has been — ARTISTS FIRST. Now go out and make some awesome music!
And let us know what your 2013 resolutions are in the comments below.

This is a high quality ride on that seriously does more than I had expected, don't know if there is an ability to connect using bluetooth, but with any device that has an auxiliary ability, you can connect it to play music. Three speeds that change with a button on the remote controller as well as an ebrake button make controlling it through remote a lot safer. I really feel like this was the best route to take when buying a jeep ride on toy.
Surprisingly the battery lasted 2+ hours. Grandson loved it so much he fell asleep in the driver's seat and wouldn't get out when we woke him up. Remote control is flimsy and inserting the batteries is problematic. Fairly simple build once you figure out the instructions are incomplete. Overall it's a pretty cool Jeep for ages 2 to 4.

Pitti Uomo turns 30 this year. As an internationally renowned platform for men's fashion for the past three decades, Pitti Immagine is mounting a retrospective exhibition on the subject conceived by fashion historian and art curator Olivier Saillard.
The exhibition, called "Romanzo Breve di Moda Maschile [Brief Novel on Men's Fashion], 1989-2019: Thirty Years of Men's Fashion, According to Pitti Uomo," will bow on June 11, the first day of the trade show, and will run through Sept. 29 at the Museum of Fashion and Costume, housed at Florence's Palazzo Pitti. The show — organized by the Pitti Immagine Discovery Foundation — will mark the celebrations for the fair's 30th anniversary.
"Pitti Uomo represents for men's fashion what Cannes and Venice do for cinema," said Saillard, who was appointed to the role of artistic consultant by the Florence-based company last July, signaling an effort to amp up its relevance in the cultural sector.
The showcase will include a selection of looks from around 150 designers and labels that have presented at Pitti Uomo throughout the years including special guests and projects, as well as brands that by showing their collections at the trade show have represented turning points for the fair since 1989.

The list already includes designs from Haider Ackermann, JW Anderson, Giorgio Armani, Neil Barrett, Hugo Boss, Thom Browne, Brooks Brothers, Roberto Cavalli, Brunello Cucinelli, Salvatore Ferragamo, Craig Green, Martin Margiela, Antonio Marras, Missoni, Moschino, Rick Owen, Jil Sander, Raf Simons, Paul Smith, Valentino, Dries Van Noten, Versace, Vivienne Westwood, Yohji Yamamoto and Ermenegildo Zegna, among other labels.
As part of the project, Marsilio Editore will publish a catalogue of the exhibition featuring pictures by Astra Marina Cabras and written contributions by fashion journalists Suzy Menkes, Frédéric Martin-Bernard and Angelo Flaccavento, among others.
Following the temporary exhibit, a selection of outfits donated by fashion houses will contribute to the installation of the Pitti Immagine Discovery Foundation's permanent collection of men's wear pieces. The institution has already pledged to donate them to the city's Museum of Fashion and Costume.
Saillard, who served as director of Palais Galliera Muséè de la Mode de la Ville de Paris from 2010 to January 2018 and is also artistic director of footwear label J.M. Weston, has previously developed several projects in collaboration with Pitti Immagine, including the "Dressing Like a Man" exhibition in 2011 and the "The Ephemeral Museum of Fashion," a poetic show hosted in 2017 at the Costume Gallery of Palazzo Pitti, combining historical costumes, vintage designer gowns and contemporary fashion creations.

Prometeo encadenado (Προμηθεὺς Δεσμώτης) es una tragedia de la antigua Grecia, tradicionalmente atribuida a Esquilo, pero en el siglo XXI es considerada por muchos eruditos como resultado del trabajo de otro escritor, quizás llevado a cabo durante el siglo IV a. C.  Sin embargo, todavía hoy se suele incluir esta tragedia en las ediciones de la obra de Esquilo. La tragedia se basa en el mito de Prometeo, un Titán que desafía a los dioses y da fuego a la humanidad, actos por los que es sometido a un castigo perpetuo. Hay pruebas de que era la primera parte de una trilogía, pero de las otras dos partes, Prometeo liberado y Prometeo portador del fuego, tan solo quedan fragmentos.

Personajes
 Cratos (Fuerza)
 Violencia (Bía)
 Hefesto
 Prometeo
 Coro de oceánides.
 Océano
 Ío
 Hermes
 Corifeo
 Zeus

Argumento

La obra está basada en el mito del titán Prometeo (del griego antiguo Προμηθεύς: «Previsión»), que había engañado a los dioses haciendo que recibieran la peor parte de cualquier animal sacrificado y los seres humanos la mejor. Además, había robado el fuego para entregárselo a los mortales y por eso fue castigado por el dios Zeus. Asimismo, Prometeo poseía el conocimiento profético de la persona que un día derrocaría a Zeus, pero rechazaba divulgar esta información.

Encadenamiento
Fuerza y Violencia, junto con Hefesto, llevan preso a Prometeo para que este sea encadenado en una roca, en la región de Escitia.

Fuerza apremia a Hefesto para que cumpla la orden de Zeus y encadene al titán. Hefesto tiene sus dudas, porque Prometeo es pariente suyo, pero sabe que no puede desobedecer a Zeus, así que cumple la orden. Una vez encadenado, Prometeo se lamenta por su destino:

Prometeo explica el origen de sus males
Un coro de Oceánidas ha acudido a tratar de consolarle. Prometeo dice que preferiría haber sido arrojado al Tártaro para que nadie pudiera ver su desgracia. También señala que Zeus acudirá a suplicarle para que, por sus conocimientos proféticos, le revele el plan por el que se le pretenderá despojar de su calidad de rey de los dioses. Prometeo insiste en que no piensa revelarlo hasta que no sea liberado de sus cadenas.

Luego explica que estuvo de parte de Zeus en la lucha que mantuvo contra los titanes. Sin embargo, se opuso a que la raza de los mortales fuera aniquilada por Zeus, concediendo a éstos el fuego así como ciegas esperanzas.

Después llega Océano. En primer lugar aconseja a Prometeo que deje de injuriar a Zeus puesto que podría sufrir por ello peores castigos y además le ofrece su ayuda, diciéndole que intentará conseguir su liberación. Prometeo, sin embargo, insiste en que se mantenga alejado del asunto para evitar sufrir castigos como ya sufrieron Atlas o Tifón. Océano se va y Prometeo sigue explicando cómo benefició a los mortales: les enseñó a predecir el movimiento de las estrellas, los números, la escritura, el uso de los animales para trabajos agrícolas, las medicinas, el arte de la adivinación, el modo de interpretar los sueños, el modo de hacer señales con el fuego y los minerales bajo tierra.

La transformación de Ío
Llega después Ío, que había sido transformada en ternera.

Ío explica a las Oceánides la causa de su transformación: constantes sueños la habían advertido de que Zeus deseaba unirse a ella y tras consultar y obedecer los oráculos, Ínaco, su padre, la había expulsado y desde entonces se había transformado en ternera y había sido vigilada por Argos por orden de Hera hasta que este murió, pero desde entonces seguía siendo constantemente picada por un tábano y caminaba errante por el mundo.

Profecía sobre el destino de Ío
Ío había pedido a Prometeo que profetizase cuál será su futuro y este le dice que, tras atravesar la tierra de los escitas, llegará a la de los cálibes. A continuación debe atravesar el Cáucaso hasta llegar a tierra de las Amazonas, que le indicarán la ruta a seguir, que será atravesando el estrecho del Bósforo hasta llegar a Asia. A continuación debe llegar a una llanura llamada Cístene, donde viven las Greas y cerca de ellas sus hermanas, las Gorgonas. Debe prevenirse contra los grifos y contra los arimaspos. Luego debe proseguir hasta la primera catarata del río Nilo y la corriente de este río la guiará hasta un territorio donde ella y sus descendientes fundarán una colonia (Náucratis). Allí, en el delta del Nilo, Ío será devuelta a su forma de mujer y Zeus engendrará en ella descendencia. Cinco generaciones más tarde, cincuenta doncellas (las danaides) regresarán a Argos y matarán a sus esposos excepto a uno de ellos. Entre la descendencia de la doncella que no mató a su esposo se encontrará un varón famoso por su arco (Heracles) que será el que libere por fin a Prometeo.

Profecía sobre el destronamiento de Zeus

Prometeo predice también que Zeus será destronado mediante un emparejamiento del que no puede dar más datos pero que producirá un hijo más fuerte que su padre. Solo podría librarse de este destino si un descendiente de Zeus lo libera de sus cadenas.

En ese momento aparece Hermes, a quien Zeus ha enviado para instar a Prometeo a que revele con claridad la profecía. Prometeo se niega e indica a Hermes que prefiere ser desgraciado a ser un siervo de Zeus como es él. Pero Hermes le amenaza con que si se niega a hablar primero Zeus provocará una tempestad que hará que la cumbre de la montaña bajo la que está caiga encima de él y más tarde un buitre acudirá todos los días a devorar su hígado. Prometeo dice que no piensa ceder y que todo eso que le anuncia ya lo sabía.

La tempestad anunciada por Zeus ya estaba dando inicios

Prometheia

Varios textos afirman que la primera parte de esta obra formó en realidad parte de una trilogía atribuida a Esquilo: La Prometheia (Προμήθεια), compuesta por dos otras obras cuya línea argumental sucedería tras los acontecimientos ocurridos en Prometeo Encadenado. Estas dos obras reciben el nombre de Prometeo Liberado  (Προμηθεὺς Λυόμενος) y Prometeo Portador del Fuego (Προμηθεὺς Πυρφόρος). solo una serie de fragmentos se han podido conservar de ambas obras, y en cierto modo, nos revelan lo sucedido en los dos componentes de esta supuesta trilogía. Sin embargo, a día de hoy la existencia de esta serie sigue siendo objeto de debate y es por tanto, incierta, ya que no hay pruebas suficientes para demostrar que realmente existió. Sin embargo, muchos expertos argumentan que, al igual que la trilogía de la Oresteia, Prometeo Encadenado formaría la primera parte de tres obras dedicadas por Esquilo al Titán.

Prometeo Liberado

Aunque solo once fragmentos [1] han sobrevivido de este posible texto teatral, se atribuye a una continuación de la única obra conservada y es posible deducir la trama: Traducida al Latín por el orador Cicerón, la obra comenzaría con una reunión entre Prometeo y un coro de Titanes, supuestamente liberados por Zeus del Tártaro, tras haber pedido clemencia el Titán de Fuego. En la obra, Prometeo se lamenta de sus penas al resto de los Titanes y cuenta cómo Heracles lo liberó del  Cáucaso tras haberlo ayudado, dándole indicaciones de cómo llegar al Jardín de las Hespérides en uno de sus Doce Trabajos, según Estrabón.

Prometeo Portador del Fuego

Curiosamente, solo se conserva un mero fragmento de esta obra[2] en las Noctes Atticae del escritor romano Aulo Gelio. La frase en cuestión sería: En silencio, donde hay necesidad; Y hablando al punto En la obra, Prometeo afirma que lleva encadenado durante más de treinta mil años. También es posible que en la obra se hiciera referencia al secreto que Prometeo conocía y Zeus temía: El hecho de que si Tetis mantenía relaciones con Zeus, el fruto de dicha consumación sería un varón que destronaría al Crónida. Por ello, Tetis se casa al final con el mortal Peleo, teniendo al héroe Aquiles.

I'm a mother of 6.
I taught myself how to crochet when I was 12 years old because everybody I knew was right-handed and couldn't teach me.
I am obsessive. Sometimes I'm compulsive. But I'm not obsessive-compulsive.
My favorite color is green. And pink. And turquoise.
I sometimes sing random songs that get stuck in my head.
I am left-handed and right-brained.
I collect frogs. And owls. And Yoda stuff. And kids.
I absolutely love your amigurumi octopi—I'm working on my fourth one. 😀 but I was wondering—they always end up having a bump on the tops of their head. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks!!
Wau so manny lovely Amigurumi pattern you make. I am crocheing Amigurumi for Danish hospitals, kids who is injured and koms to the imergency room, get an Amigurumi if they are werry sad, the nurses get a better result when the kids are more come. We have a facebook group called Skadestuebamsen where lots of people donates their Amigurumi to maney hospitals in Denmark. And we are always looking for new and funny Amigurumi.
I just want to thank you for all the free and lovely pattern.

There's no shame in letting Fake News shape your world view. If you can't laugh along with the news anchor, what's the point? These original funny designs were inspired by Comedy Central's finest.
