Is it real or is it Memorex?
2 years ago
Cleaning out Mother-in-Laws jam packed dresser full of clothes going back probably 60 years I found two interesting items, A Yves St Laurent shirt that probably is a knock off and a very genuine looking Chanel cashmere sweater.
Any ideas where to look to verify the items and what they are worth?

Comments (9)I have used the free jetAudio for about 5 years now and I am very happy with it. Now, I am no music aficionado but enjoy a bit of internet radio occasionally. You can see from the blurb I pasted in below what it can do. Each of us has our own ideas on good and bad so you may need to experiment with a few.

Not only does it play various music and video files, it also has features such as CD burning, recording, and conversion to other file formats. You can create your own Internet broadcast by using JetCast, provided with JetAudio, and you can play all major file formats, including WAV, MP3, MP3Pro, OGG, WMA, MPEG, AVI, WMV, MIDI, RM, and video and audio CD tracks. Convert among audio file formats, and record analog audio to various formats.tag editing for MP3, OGG, and WMA files; sound effects including wide, reverb, and x-bass; multichannel sound output; speed control of audio playback; cross-fading for a smooth transition between two songs; a skinnable user interface; and synchronized lyrics display (karaoke) for MIDI and MP3 files.supports for video conversion for iAUDIO U3, supports ts,tp file extension, and includes video format converter to AVI - end of pasted article. Grady is right of course, your sound depends on the quality of your speakers system or head phones and sound card. I have my computer connected to my stereo system.

Comments (16)you mention adding charter security suite, did you fully remove the other antivirus programs you had on the pc with the specific removal tools for that program? That is one thing that will definitely cause these kinds of problems. What was the antivirus program you had before you put on charter? And yes the large antivirus suites can very much slow down performance. Computers are built with various fans some are just for the extra work and only kick on when they are needed so it is not uncommon to hear one come on when doing anything that requires more usage of the cpu. It might be a good time to go ahead and do as suggested and open it up and clean it out, even sitting in storage bugs and stuff can get in boxes. Also use a program like startup lite by the makers of malwarebytes to check your start up items and possibly whittle those down. StartUpLite Have you run an updated malwarebytes scan lately? if not definitely do so. How to download and install Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware application for Windows computers malware can also over tax a computer. with your firefox as I mentioned earlier you definitely should add those items I suggested....See MoreMixing Marbles on Backsplash and Island Counter
Comments (10)I am wondering if anyone other than TKO GW members would even think to ask, or even ponder, that this is not "real marble". Yes, this is coming from the woman who thought it was real when she saw it in the showroom, but still -- would your typical kitchen visitor know if it was "live or memorex"? (OK, you may be too young to remember that commercial). There is another thread (or maybe more) in the past few days where people discussed that the carrara and calacatta marble subway tile samples they recieved had varying yellow tones amongst white tiles. I think that unless you can get subways made from the sibling slab of your island, you are going to have a variation in the color of the subs, or in the veining. The ceramic may provide a more consistant color amongst the tiles. Even though it may be whiter than your island slab, it will be white like the slab, and not yellow; like some "real" tiles may be. But then again, unless you've asked a TKO individual over, they might not notice the yellow tones possible in the real marble tiles. I also think that there are enough ohhs and ahhs in your kitchen that the typical visitor won't even begin to notice any possible differences. At least any visitors I have wouldn't....See MoreWhat do you really long for?
Comments (19)I am happy, but I want more close friends. Too many people come and go in my life and I find myself wanting them to stay put! I also miss the true intimacy of a male-female relationship which, IMHO, only a part involves human sexuality. True intimacy to me is the sharing of your innermost thoughts and feelings with your partner in open honesty without fear of judgement. Here is an ecerpt from my journal yesterday: The early morning and early evening hours are cool now. I lie in my bed at dusk with the windows open, the curtains pulled back, and my gaze is drawn toward the evening sky. The sun is unusually beautiful as it sets this time of the day, this time of the year. The geese flying south across the golden-purple horizon bring me much peace and joy as I watch another summer begin its first curtain call. Above the sounds of the neighborhood that drift across the cherry orchard and into my bedroom, comes the sweetest chorus of summer crickets, offering up their voices in a remarkable lullaby, singing me to sleep each night. Life is good for me. I recognize it as such and go to my knees in thankfulness....See More- 2 years ago

Metal measuring tape. The only thing I could think of to show the color against Realter Beige carpet was blindingly white envelopes. The sweater has been in N.C. since 1984 (upstate New York previously) and looks to me like it has never been worn more than twice.
