Code closed C, Sunset Plaza building nine by Andrew Asch


If another reminder was necessary retail shop is difficult, it is here.

A few days after that the character of C Code was presented in a Jan. 4 Apparel News article on Sunset Plaza, Code C shops closed.

"It was one of the things most sudden I heard about," said Shauna Stein, a fashion designer and a fashion consultant who has worked in the Code. One minute C Code were of the company, the other the store was empty.

Multiline shop opened in August 2009 in 8641 Sunset Blvd., in a shop 3,000 square feet that once housed a shops for the now-defunct D & G line.

(C) goods mix code included lines contemporary Vivienne Westwood Anglomania, unique and Habitual, shop has sought to meet the variety of experience multi-brand from the point of view of the design of the brand shop.

Sunset Plaza president and owner Francis s. Montgomery II stated that he had given rebates to all his tenants during the recession, and he gave C Code expects another when owners requested a late 2012. They could not even make the rent. But the timing was poor for a company looking for a break. Sunset Plaza had no vacant positions in December.

"When we approach a packed auditorium, we will examine the rate," said Montgomery. "It is time to stand up to what the market will pay."

There are now two seats to be filled in Sunset Plaza; the former space of C Code and the other in the new building the plaza 8600. The new tenants in the building of 8600 French watchmaker is F.P. Journe, who will open a shop later this year.

Jun 14, Elliott Wave Free Week is Here!

How do you tell when the market will offer nice pullbacks or when it will trade off of momentum? The easiest way to check this is to look at the ADX indicator.

Readings below 25 indicate that the market will offer nice pullbacks to initiate swing trades. Readings above 25 indicate a strong trend - pullbacks will be shallow or nonexistent.

As long as the ADX indicator is above 25 and sloping up, the market will continue to trade off of momentum. Momentum is lost when it begins to slope down.

It's not a perfect technical indicator (none are) but it does a good job of telling you the current strength of the trend.

Take a look at the following chart:



H&R Block (HRB) recently broke out decisively (arrow) through resistance (highlighted). This stock is now in first pullback mode and could create a nice trading opportunity if it prints a reversal candle.

The one problem that I see is that this stock is in a mature trend which could lead to failure patterns.

Still, this is definitely one to keep an eye on when the market resumes trading.

I know from experience that a stock should move in your favor within a day or two after your entry. If it doesn't then it will likely go against you. Here is a recent trade that I had:



This stock pulled back and formed a bottoming tail and then an engulfing candlestick pattern. So I bought the stock. Then I waited...and waited...and the stock went nowhere. So I dumped it after a couple of days.

The first question that should come to your mind when this happens is:
Where are the buyers?

They aren't there.

The vibrant wardrobe of Frida Kahlo by Sarah Wolfson

Grew up in Los Angeles, many of my friends neighborhood and I have been raised idolize the Mexican surrealist Frida Kahlo. We admired her for many reasons - his introspective art, colorful fashion sense, trend setting monobrow, fervor political force which led through numerous achievements, physical or emotional.

Needless to say that, for us, it became an emblematic figure and remained through the years.  Apparently, painter in fine decor and husband of Kahlo, Diego Rivera, felt much the same, protective of his wife.

After his death, Diego has locked the doors of his closets. Some say he wanted to keep his private affairs and that are dear to him, others think that he feared that they might be damaged.

Before his own death in 1957, long time friend Dolores Olmedo to take care of the closets of Frida, he asked, with a request to keep it locked up to 15 years after his death. And then, kept Olmedo space safe, keep it closed until his departure in 2002, at the age of 93.

Frida Kahlo MuseumDirector Hilda Soto de Trujillo, was honored to open the doors with the unveiling of 300 personal items by Kahlo, including a trove of treasure of clothing, jewelry, shoes and photographs. Historians, said the scent of Kahlo, with a brush of cigarette smoke if focused, as well as patches of paint, making it a sacred experience.

The exhibition, "appearances can be deceiving: The dresses of Frida Kahlo," takes place at the Frida Kahlo Museum also known as the "Casa Azul", in the District of Coyoacan of Mexico. In collaboration with Vogue Mexico, the show opened November 24, 2012 and will run for one year, with a rotation every five months featuring new items.

By adopting an approach theme-"disability" and "ethnic origin" - well illustrated show the stylistic approach of Kahlo, where many of his choices were twice, at one end, protecting stop hiding his artificial leg and the other celebrating its roots cultural Aboriginal Tehuana dresses.

The intimate space is only five rooms, medical material transport - immobilization of the leg and the corsets and dresses in fashion tops, skirts, shoes and simple jobs like a pair of cat - eye sunglasses. He also paid tribute to the influence of Kahlo on contemporary designers where the corsets of Jean Paul Gaultier and as of boy's collections are displayed.

The show gives the public the opportunity to get closer to this enigmatic figure, Kahlo's lifting of the canvas to real life.

Conservative Circé Henestrosa spoke of the exhibition.
