Ralph Lauren Outlet Online Uk Things to do in Milan
"My cousin Francis and I are in perfect accord he wants Milan, and so do I" Charles V
Given what Charles V had to say about Milan, there sure must be something about it. We all know that for any fashionista, Milan is first a fashion capital. For an art and history connoisseur, it is a city flooded with more substantial things. That really is the best part about some places. The extensive palette it comes with. The number of interesting activities to do in Milan, are so encompassing that one could just never get bored of being there. Whether it's about spending some laid back time while shopping, or visiting popular monuments and churches, there is much more to do than one would imagine.
This is undoubtedly the number one suggestion anyone would make to a first time visitor to Milan. One of the top attractions in Milan, Italy, this one is hard to give up. The Duomo or Cathedral, is said to be one of the largest Gothic structures, as also the third largest church in Christendom. Apart from that, it also offers the best view of Milan, that you could ever get.
Check out The Last Supper
We've all heard about Da Vinci's The Last Supper, how about seeing it too. A stay in Milan is almost incomplete without going to the Santa Maria delle Grazie church to have a look at the famous "The Last Supper" by Leonardo da Vinci.
AC Milan, Baby!!
If you are a huge football fan, then this is it for you. A trip to Milan, but no AC Milan, or even FC Internazionale just isn't happening! A trip to the San Siro Stadium, and a visit to the museum is a "must do" for any football fanatic. Giving major insight with the help of photographs, and other forms of documentation, a football fan would love this for sure.
Flee to the Flea Markets
Milan has a lot of amazing shopping that can be done at its flea markets. Right from things with that classic and vintage appeal, to your favorite designer dupes, flea markets in Milan will offer you everything. You must however, bear in mind that a morning like this on the town is about comfort, so ditch the dressed up look, and go easy for some great shopping. Markets worth a visit are, Fiera de Sinigaglia, Viale Papiniano, Viale Fauch, amongst several others.
Shop Haute Couture
Shopping at flea markets ain't your thing? It's true, not everyone can work the flea markets. But that's okay, because if high fashion is more your style, then that is how it shall be done. All the designer names are all gathered up at one spot alone. Known as the Quadrilatero d'Oro or very simply the Rectangle of Gold, this spot houses all the big names Versace, Prada, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, etc. It is also home to Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, an arcade considered one of the oldest shopping malls in the world.
Attend the Opera
Ralph Lauren Polo Sale The Teatro alla Scala is a definite yes for any die hard opera lover. Often known as La Scala, this famous opera house has been around since 1778, and has been prime venue for several big opera performances. What may be an experience of a lifetime for some, comes with some major advance booking, because sadaknkj12 this place gets full like you wouldn't imagine.
Visit the Parks
Save this one for a day of doing nothing, yet keeping busy. If you are in Milan, kids in tow, make sure you save a day in the least for maybe a picnic with your kids. There are umpteen parks to choose from, and visit. Some of the best would be, Parco Sempione, Parco Forlanini, Gardino Guastalla, to name a few.
Get a Taste of the Cuisine Coffee
Ralph Lauren Outlet Uk What's a visit to any place without tasting some of the local delicacies? Although the days of the unbelievably long lunches seem to be long lost, the food hasn't stopped being as delectable as it used to be. Whether it's a quickie like a panini or a sandwich, or a fuller meal like pasta and some good meat, food in Milan will not disappoint you. Also, how can you miss out on some really good coffee when you're here? Make sure you get a good dose of all the coffee you could ever want.
Pamper Yourself at the Spa
Most "to do" lists are always made up of the same old things. Visit historic monuments, go to the theaters, etc. But what about some real indulgence if you are on vacation. That is the point of a vacation anyway! While in Milan, make sure to go to some of the luxury spas that the place has to offer. Some of the best to go to would be, Four Seasons Hotel Milano, Hotel Principe di Savoia Milano, and Culti Day Spa.
Enjoy the Feel of Venice cnvnclkv
Ralph Lauren Uk Outlet Ok, so this is not going to be the real thing like you'd find in Venice or Amsterdam, but consider it pseudo Venice! Milan's Navigli district may not be anything exceptional in a certain sense, but it most certainly makes for a fun experience. Even though there are just two canals that can provide you with the Venice like experience, touring the place on a boat will be one experience that you will enjoy without a doubt.
That was a short list of suggestions that you could pick from when on your next visit to Milan, so hopefully the recommendations may help you to plan your next visit to this blissful city.
The secret life of Olympic hero Oscar Pistorius
He was an Olympic champion, national hero and handsome millionaire who lived in a mansion.
She was a stunning model, TV star and law graduate.
International sports star Oscar Pistorius was an inspiration to millions when, on prosthetic legs, he became the first amputee to compete against able bodied athletes at last year's Olympic Games.
Blonde beauty Reeva Steenkamp was a rising star who in an interview just last week described her boyfriend as "an impeccable man who always had her best interests at heart".
Polo Ralph Lauren Cheap But the man they called the "Blade Runner" lived a secret second life.
Inside his home in a prestigious gated community in the South African city of Pretoria, he kept a cache of high powered weapons, despite hiring private guards and his house being surrounded by three metre high walls.
Ralph Lauren Wholesale The extraordinary athlete who achieved greatness against the odds lived with a revolver by his bed and a machine gun by his window.
South African police say they have previously been called to his prestigious house in the Silver Lakes Golf Estate for domestic violence complaints.
But a tearful Pistorius was last night remanded in custody after being formally charged with the murder of his girlfriend.
Wearing a dark suit, tie and blue shirt, he broke down in the Pretoria Magistrates Court as magistrate Desmond Nair formally charged him with the murder of Reeva Steenkamp, 29. cnvnclkv
Discount Ralph Lauren Prosecutors say they will pursue a premeditated murder charge against Pistorius, 26, who stood with his face in his hands as he broke down in tears.
The magistrate delayed Pistorius' bail hearing to Tuesday and Wednesday, and ruled he be held at a Pretoria police station until then.
In a story as sad as it is shocking, 26 year old Pistorius stands accused of shooting Steenkamp four times in the head, chest, mouth and hand.
Ralph Lauren Polo News of the Valentine's Day tragedy has shaken the foundation of world athletics and dominated news bulletins around the globe.
His arrest has been felt nowhere more strongly than South Africa, where he had been considered a hero
Rather than starting his sporting year in Australia, where he was next month due to compete in able bodied races in Sydney and Perth, the man they dubbed "the fastest man on no sadaknkj11 legs" could find himself languishing in the Pretoria Central Prison, where capital punishment was delivered in apartheid era South Africa and the prison gallows could hang seven people at a time.
Afrikaans language newspaper Beeld last night carried the headline "dead behind the door", reporting Steenkamp was found by security guards in a bathroom where Pistorius had apparently shot her.
It said police and security guards were called to his mansion two hours before gunshots were heard with neighbours complaining about noise thought to have been an argument between the couple.
Other local media said there were "splatters of blood in Pistorius' bedroom, and in other parts of his house" that were being combed by forensic experts.
A 9mm gun registered in Pistorius' name was removed from the scene by police in the South African provence of Gauteng.
Until yesterday, Pistorius was the feel good story of world sport the man born without a fibula in either leg who grew up walking on stumps then prosthetics after his malformed limbs were amputated.
A six time Paralympic gold medallist who defied the doubters by qualifying for the 400m semi final in London and ran for his nation in the 4x400m relay, he was named by Time magazine one of the world's 100 most influential people and carried the South African flag at the closing ceremony of the Games.
On February 1, Steenkamp took to social media to show her affection for the man she had been dating about three months.
"He's beautiful to look at says some smart stuff too ;)," she tweeted.
Last weekend she reacted to the death of a 17 year old gang raped, murdered and mutilated at a construction site near Cape Town, by telling her online followers "Speak out against the rape of individuals in SA. RIP Anene Booysen."
The 30 year old was this week due to speak at a university today about the empowerment of women.
But she may not have known her famous partner had an alleged past of temper, violence and a love of guns.
In November, he reportedly threatened to break the legs of the friend of a man he believed had slept with his ex girlfriend.
London's Daily Mail yesterday reported Pistorius spent a night in police cells in 2009 after a woman complained to police he had assaulted her during a party at his house.

selling e books: They're not for sale Kindle users are leaning toward downloads priced at $0.00. Still, with Amazon playing close to the vest, it's hard to tell what the sales patterns really look like.
by Peter Kafka, AllThingsD
December 29, 2009 5:41 AM PST
One big reason readers choose e books over ink and paper versions: The digital ones are cheaper.
That wasn't the case when e books first appeared a decade ago. But Amazon has made a point of selling its
Ralph Lauren Dresses Kindle titles at a discount to physical editions, even if it means losing money.
And then there are the titles that Kindle owners really, really love the ones they get for nothing. As the Washington Post noted earlier this week, the list of best selling Kindle titles is dominated by free books:
Cheap Ralph Lauren Polo Shirts Amazon's customers have made it clear that $9.99 is still too high for their taste. Most titles in the company's list of top 100 Kindle bestsellers are priced below $9.99, and the most popular price point is $0.00.
The good folks at MediaBistro have gone ahead and counted, so you don't have to. As of a day ago, 64 of Amazon's top 100 Kindle titles cost nada.
How exactly does that work? I understand why Amazon is able to hand out public domain works like "" and "" for free. But I'm not sure what's going on with titles like Noel Hynd's "" (9). Anyone want to weigh in?
I'm also not sure what conclusions we can draw from the dominance of freebies on the Kindle charts. I'm tempted to say that Kindle buyers are rabid but indiscriminate readers, and they'll lap up whatever you put in front of them.
But without a real sense of the numbers, which Amazon is never going to cough up, it's hard to tell what the sales patterns really look like.
I suspect, for instance, that a lot of the freebies are picked up by readers in the first few sadaknkj11 weeks that they own a Kindle, when they're looking to download something simply for the sake of downloading something.
I also assume that the Kindle charts are skewed by hardcore early adopters' reading habits. And that the patterns will start changing now that more casual users are picking up the Kindle for the first time.
And in case you were wondering because I was says it is not counting free book downloads when it releases sales statistics like the one it put out on Saturday, when it said more customers had purchased Kindle titles than physical books on Christmas Day.
The Second Coming of GPS in Smartphones
Louis Vuitton Outlet Text by Steve Casimiro; Photograph by Joshua Scott
Replica Louis Vuitton Handbags After a long day of shooting in Colorado's San Juan Mountains, I was heading back into Durango, starving. Where to go and how to get there? My buddy's car didn't have GPS, so I pulled out my iPhone and fired up Navigon's GPS application. Within minutes, voice commands were guiding us toward Zia Taqueria, home to killer fish tacos. As we pulled into the parking lot it struck me that, without a second thought, I'd been party to a sea change in personal navigation. cnvnclkv
Replica Louis Vuitton Wallets Just two years ago, sales of portable auto GPS units were growing almost exponentially, but in the past six months, a sadaknkj11 boom in navigational software has stolen the show. Every major smartphone platform now has at least one GPS application, sometimes more. In its first two months alone, TomTom's iPhone app was downloaded 80,000 times at $100 a pop. Google's highly anticipated Navigation app, which hit the market in November, promises to reshape the category completely it's free. Indeed, market research firm Forrester predicts that GPS software will outpace dedicated devices within three years.
Louis Vuitton Replica Actually, I'd be surprised if it took that long. Compared to portable GPS units, smartphones often cost less and do far more. And after testing all the major phone platforms, I'm convinced that full featured mobile applications like those from Navigon, TeleNav, TomTom, and Magellan are equal to their stand alone units. They have exactly the navigation functions you need including spoken directions, traffic reports, and even simulated views of upcoming intersections without the extraneous junk that device makers like to cram in. Why bother with anything else.

The Louis Vuitton Paris Show
Today I saw the Louis Vuitton Paris: Voyage en Capitale exhibit at the Mus Carnavalet in Paris. (The museum is part of the Parisian municipal museum system that includes the Notre Dame crypt and the catacombs.)
Polo Ralph Lauren Sale The exhibit, which runs until Feb. 27, 2011, showed how Louis Vuitton took was and is intertwined with the city of Paris itself. Louis Vuitton founded the company himself he started in 1837 with an apprenticeship with Marechal as a "trunk maker and packer" and became a salesman for the company two years later. In 1852, he became the packer for Empress Eugenie, which set him off for founding his own company in 1854.
The sadaknkj10 house made its first flat trunk in 1856 and distinguished itself by making lighter cases with waterproof canvas (the Trianon canvas). Vuitton also made some of the first specified trunks, like the compartment trunk, the bed trunk, and the watertight trunk. He started taking special orders in 1869. cnvnclkv
Polo Ralph Lauren Outlet Louis' son, George, was the one who created the interlocking LV initials, diamond points, stars and quatrefoil flowers. The monogram was trademarked in 1905. George also tested the impregnable lock, which was tested by Houdini. The third generation Vuittons, Gaston Louis, Pierre and Jean, played their role as designers of trunks for cars and airplanes.
Ralph Lauren Polo The Voyage exhibit had some interesting things to see like a Moroccan leather Milano model furnished portmanteau, from 1925, old artwork of scenes of Paris, and documents showing orders for Louis Vuitton products from famous people like the conductor Leopold Stokowski, circa 1929. But most guests will love the century old Louis Vuitton trunks themselves made of everything from crocodile and wood to canvas and resin.
Ralph Lauren Cheap Louis Vuitton was the first company to make its steamers with a flat top all the better to stack on a train or ship. It seems common sense now, but it was revolutionary back then. Here are some photos.
Nike Free Run Womens The Louis Vuitton Of Tile
Nike Free 4.0 Tile Shop Holdings, (TTS) is a tile retailer that went public in September of 2012. Since then, it has benefited form the markets re infatuation with anything housing related and currently trades at a ridiculous 26x EV/EBITDA. In the past month the share price has declined 29% due to an earnings miss and allegations by short seller, Infitialis, research that the company's products contain hazardous amounts of lead. After reading Infitialis' otherwise excellent report, and hearing the company's response on the most recent earnings call; I deem it unlikely that any action by regulators will be forthcoming. With that in mind, I wrote this article to demonstrate that, even without the threat sadaknkj10 of poisoning its customers, Tile Shop has issues that, from an investor perspective, are just as poisonous as lead. The biggest reasons for this are that tile is by and large a commodity product, and retailing it is a business with low barriers to entry. Home Depot (HD), Lowes (LOW) and smaller competitors can just as easily buy it from vendors, and sell it for cheaper. But even if it wasn't a commodity product, the company's margins are way higher than those of other national retailers that sell highly differentiated goods. For instance, Apple sports a gross margin of around 40%, and remember, they invented the iPhone! Other premium brands with lower gross margins include Coach 72%, Lulu Lemon 50%, and Abercrombie Fitch 62%. TTS isn't selling Gucci loafers or Louis Vuitton bags, and its margins will come to reflect that as it tries to become a national franchise. based Top Tiles (TPT), and achieve a 60% gross, a margin that would leave TTS firmly on the wrong side of profitability.The other problem at TTS is the SG spend. As a percentage of revenue it was 56% in the most recent quarter. And while management is hopeful they can bring that down to the historical 50%, they give no indication of having the ability or even the intention to lower it any further (despite helpful hints by sell side analysts to suggest otherwise). With only $3.85 million of cash on hand as of September 30th and $85.4 million in debt, the company is taking a big risk attempting such an aggressive expansion. Simply put, the company is overleveraged and any bump in the road may be detrimental not only to equity holders but also to lenders willingness to extend credit.In addition to the daredevil capital structure, investors should be concerned with the speed of the undertaking. Difficult as growing a business is under any conditions, it becomes exponentially more difficult when you try and do it quickly. Issues such as inventory management, location selection, employee quality and supervision, to name just a few, don't get any easier to manage when you have Wall Street eying you with a stopwatch. As of November 2012 Nabron International, a trust controlled by the Chan brothers (one of which is a former Enron board member), was the largest single stakeholder with an interest in 36% of the outstanding shares. As of June 18th 2013, Nabron had reduced its interest in the company to 20%, a near 56% reduction in a little over six months. Similarly JWTS, a private equity firm, has reduced its stake from 13% in November 2012, to 8.4% as of June 10th. Finally, despite receiving share based compensation, CEO and founder Robert A. Rucker has also reduced his stake from 19.9% in November 2012, to 15% as of June 2013.All of these investors obviously have better places to put their money than TTS equity why don't you?As short sellers Infitialis mention in their report, the CEO of TTS was convicted of fraud in civil court related to divorce proceedings from his now ex wife. For me, this isn't a good thing but it's not necessarily the end of the world.The other management issue brought to light by Infitialis is the fact that the former Senior Vice President of Operations, Mr. Joseph Andrew Kinder is on probation due to his involvement in a domestic dispute another bad sign. Since then, it appears Mr. Kinder has been demoted in favor of the recently hired Chris Homeister. Mr. Homeister was previously Senior VP at Best Buy (BBY), a company with a poor record of competing on the national stage.Last but not least, in 2012 the company was found to have a material weakness in its disclosure controls and procedures. As I understand it, the company didn't have enough people in place at headquarters that were financially competent, nor did they have a sound process for closing the books at the end of year.In and of themselves none of the aforementioned issues is detrimental to the company's future. However, when taken together, the picture sure isn't pretty. Let's put on our optimist hats, and see if we can make the current valuation make sense. Historically the company has earned about 27.5%. Therefore this assumption extremely generous, especially given that its peers are earning EBITDA margins around 12%. This would correspond to a 23% compound annual growth rate for stores. To achieve such a rapid expansion without any margin contraction is highly unlikely, but hey we're looking on the bright side here. That's a higher than what Home Depot currently commands, and it's a national franchise with a honed operating model, experienced and competent management. I also assume debt will increase to $150 million to finance this growth, while cash moves up to $20 million.What's the result of all this future gazing? Despite our psychedelic concessions to the gods of delusion the company still stands 17% overvalued based on Friday's closing price.

Ralph Lauren Kids The Louis Vuitton of Teas
Ralph Lauren T Shirts If you've got $35 000 of cold hard cash, poor impulse control, and the urge to drop it like it's hot, I've got just the thing for sadaknkj10 you: Poo Tea.
Ralph Lauren Shirt Chinese entrepreneur, An Yanshi, has come up with a brilliant plan to relieve multimillionaires of the burden of their cash. Big spenders can now indulge in tea at the very reasonable low price of $35 000/pound. And not just any tea; the Louis Vuitton of teas. Tea grown from 100% authentic Panda feces. In order words, the best poo that money can buy.
Ralph Lauren Polo Shirts What is so great about this tea, you ask? Well, apart from its sinful "mature and nutty" taste, the tea is celebrated for its many health benefits. Since Pandas only absorb 30% of their food through their crappy digestive system, the nutrients from their bamboo meal leak into their excrement, providing a fiber and nutrient rich fertilizer for the tea. It is also said that bamboo, like tea, contains elements that may prevent cancer.
This goes to show that poo really is the wave of the future. And since Pandas can create as much as 20 kg of feces per day, there really is no shortage of waste for interesting pet projects like poo forts and poo toothpaste. And to think, we all have An Yanshi to thank because if it weren't for him, all that poo would completely go to waste cnvnclkv.
