Christian college's theatre department presents Greek tragedy ‘Ion’ in November

George Fox University's theatre department will present a world-premiere performance of Paul D. Streufert's translation of Euripides' "Ion" in the university's Wood-Mar Auditorium Nov. 4-6 and Nov. 11-14. All performances begin at 7:30 p.m. with the exception of the Sunday, Nov. 14 show, scheduled as a 2 p.m. matinee.

"Ion" follows the story of Kreousa, a young woman who unwillingly conceives a child with the god Apollo. Not wanting to bring shame on her family, Kreousa abandons the child and hopes Apollo will care for him. Sixteen years later, Kreousa visits Apollo's temple at Delphi and meets a boy named Ion who serves as one of the temple's servants. Apollo can either allow Kreousa and Ion to recognize each other, or keep his crime a secret and lead the play to tragedy.

Tickets are $12 for general admission, $8 for seniors and George Fox alumni, and $6 for students and children under 12. Tickets can be purchased by calling the University Box Office at 503-554-3844, visiting the Bruin Bookstore, or going to theatre.georgefox.edu to purchase them online.

Director Rhett Luedtke chose to produce "Ion" because the theatre program had not staged a Greek tragedy since 2004's "Trojan Women."

"One of our goals as a theatre program is to expose our students and audience members to as many different theatrical styles and dramatic genres as possible," Luedtke said. "'Ion' intrigued me. Euripides breaks many of the conventional rules of Greek tragedy in this play. He challenges Athenian patriarchy and questions the power and roles of the Greek gods over human life."

Luedtke has taken some liberties with production of "Ion." Although the set and masks used are reminiscent of ancient Greece, clothing is contemporary. The cast is composed of 12 members who all represent and play the gods. In addition, the seven women share the role of Kreousa as they pass her mask from one actor to women's jackets online the next. Similarly, Ion is played by three men. The remaining characters are portrayed by single actors.

These changes were made for various reasons. "How much control do the 'gods' of our society have over our actions in 2010?" Luedtke wonders. "Secondly, Kreousa's story is a story shared by many women across generations. Having all seven women play her signals Kreousa's connection to all women."

Part of the reason Luedtke decided to have Kreousa and Ion portrayed by multiple actors is because of the amount of growth they go through as the play progresses, while other characters portrayed by single actors go through the least amount of growth.

The performance features theatre (theater) major students as well as students from other majors.

The George Fox University theatre department has been recognized by the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington D.C. with awards for individual acting, set design, and overall production.

George Fox University is ranked by Forbes as the top Christian college in the Pacific Northwest and among the top three Christian colleges in the country. George Fox is the only Christian university in the Pacific Northwest classified by U.S. News & World Report as a first tier national university. More than 3,400 students attend classes on the university's campus in Newberg, Ore., and at teaching centers in Portland, Salem, and Redmond, Ore., and Boise, Idaho. George Fox offers bachelor's degrees in more than 40 majors, degree-completion programs for working adults, five seminary degrees, and 11 master's and doctoral degrees.

World Sports and Fitness Clothing Market to Reach US$126.30 Billion by 2015, According to New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

Blurring lines of differentiation between sports apparel and garments used for casual, business, everyday or street wear, continue to define an ever-changing landscape in the sports and fitness clothing market. These obscuring differences between sports apparel, fitness clothing, and casual, active wear are leading to an interesting change in target audiences. Changing lifestyles, and attitude towards fitness outerwear, are dictating fashion trends with women exhibiting a proclivity towards fashionable workout wear. Growing emphasis on versatility, convenience, fashion, comfort, style, and performance is creating a strong demand for sports and fitness clothing, which offers both functional performance and style appeal. In terms of consumption growth and overall apparel market share, the segment is expected to garner the highest growth.

Aging-but-act women's coats ive population in the US, Japan and Europe, and emerging markets such as Asia and Latin America present attractive opportunities for apparel makers. Women represent a highly lucrative target audience as they increasingly take up newer sports. On the retail front, conventional sporting goods players vie with fashion stores while department stores compete with mass merchandisers and sporting goods chains, in a bid to capture a pie of this lucrative market. Further, the dynamics of sports and fitness clothing companies in the retail industry would increase consolidation activity among the players. Consumers are increasingly exhibiting widely disparate preferences, classy tastes, and a marked inclination towards those that offer convenience, performance, flexibility and class. Consumers are ready to pay more for performance characteristics that might facilitate them to gain considerable competitive advantage in their sports pursuit. Fabric characteristics such as temperature regulation, friction reduction, moisture management, stretch, lightness, and wind and water resistance are in popular demand. Downstream integration of clothing manufacturers in distribution as evidenced in chains, single brand stores, and the 'shop within a shop' concept, coupled with growth of private-labels, marks a strong trend towards brand strengthening and greater retail concentration

The sports apparel market is highly dynamic and fragmented in nature. The industry witnessed a growing onslaught of powerful brands ranging from basic to leading fashion names. The more established sports brands, popular for genuineness, convenience and sophisticated technology, are continuously striving to maintain their market share. With versatility and functionality largely gaining importance, vendors are responding by introducing sports and fitness apparel in various stylish designs for both men and women. In this regard, major sports apparel companies are partnering with famous designers to introduce innovative stylish apparel brands and offer a new look to the existing brands to attract consumers. Favorable trends such as a stylish teenage marketplace, growing baby boomer segment, and a tendency towards casual dress in the workplace are expected to drive consumption growth of sports apparel and fitness clothing.

The global market for sports and fitness clothing is poised to grow due to sturdy sales in Asian markets which exhibited robust value and volume sales even in midst of recession. The burgeoning Asia-Pacific, Latin America and other evolving markets such as Middle East and Africa logged encouraging positive growth patterns in 2008, even as other countries worldwide registered sales erosions during the year. The situation worsened in 2009, with sales in developed and mature countries including North America, Europe and Japan falling significantly. Developing economies on the other hand, managed to survive the year with marginal losses. Although the sales of apparel used in snow sports increased in 2008 and 2009, the actual contribution to the overall sports industry has been below average, reflected in the declining sales of sports apparel in 2009, particularly in the US and Europe.

The US constitutes the world's single largest and most developed regional market for sports and fitness clothing, as stated by the new research report on Sports and Fitness Clothing. Europe and Asia-Pacific trail behind as the other significant markets, with the three regions garnering a gigantic consolidated share of the world market. With respect to fastest growth potential, Asia-Pacific, spurred by rapidly expanding markets of India, China, Hong Kong and Australia among others is forecast to race ahead at the highest CAGR of over 4.0% through 2015. The Sports Apparel product segment commands a sizeable chunk of the global sports and fitness clothing market.

The sportswear market worldwide is characterized by severe competition among international powerhouses, which have been successful in capturing considerable share in the sports apparel market. Mirroring consolidation trends in industries worldwide, the sports apparel market also witnessed numerous mergers and acquisitions. The acquisition of the US stalwart Reebok by the German giant adidas in 2006 represents a landmark acquisition in the industry. Key market participants profiled in the report include Adidas AG, Reebok, Algo Group, Amer Sports Corporation, Ashworth Inc, ASICS America Corporation, Benetton Group S.p.A, Billabong International Limited, Blacks Leisure Group Plc, Columbia Sportswear Company, Descente Ltd., Eddie Bauer Inc., Escada AG, Everlast Worldwide Inc., Fila Online Inc., Foot Locker Inc., FUBU, Gap Inc., Banana Republic, Old Navy, Gildan Activewear Inc., Hanesbrands Inc., Hugo Boss AG, Jacques Moret Inc., JJB Sports Plc., among several others.

The research report titled "Sports and Fitness Clothing: A Global Strategic Business Report" announced by Global Industry Analysts, Inc., provides a comprehensive review of the industry outlook, current scenario, consumer and demographic profile, product overview, product innovations, recent industry activity and profiles of companies worldwide. Analysis and overview is provided for major geographic markets such as US, Canada, Japan, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America and Rest of World. Market analytics are provided in value (US$) terms for product segments including Sports Apparel, and Fitness Clothing. The study also presents historic data for an insight into market evolution over the period 2000 through 2006

New Novel is a Sharp Portrayal of Life and Human Relationships

Richard "Bingy" Brown, author of the action thriller "Living the Dream", returns to the literary world with the new novel, "Double Standards". In this gripping work of fiction, he invites readers to examine the complexity of human relationships in light of the experiences of a group of people bound and broken by love and lust, betrayal, murder, loyalty, desire and deception.

At the center of this intricate fable that sizzles with sex and Brown's signature blend of fact and fiction, are men and women who dare to examine the deepest chambers of the heart and psyche. There is strong-willed, 29-year-old Soneyah; the feisty Sylvia; Shevaughn, whose love and devotion to her husband did not spare her 10-year marriage from the Tips: Find Street Fashion Online(may be you can find what you want on the oasap.com) pain of infidelity; Asia, a 24-year old single mother of three and Rosemary, whose adolescence marred by sexual abuse makes it almost impossible for her to trust men. These women are uniquely different but they are bound to one another by their negative experiences with men and their determination to give their male counterparts a taste of their own medicine.

On another layer of the story are four men, Rayman, Luke, Knuckles and Hives, who will not let anything get in the way of their faithlessness and womanizing- even their own partners. The end of their odyssey of discovery will reveal to each character unexpected destinies and a stunning truth about themselves and those they love.

Witty, sharp and thoroughly engaging, "Double Standards" is a searing story of life peopled by broken yet real souls on the road to discovering redemption and what it truly means to love.

Protect Your Skin This Summer with Sun-Protective Swimwear

While packing the bag for the beach this summer, consider packing sun-protective swimwear in addition to all those bottles of sunscreen. Sun-protective UV rash guards and board shorts made by companies like Girls4Sport provide lasting protection from the sun that doesn't need to be reapplied.

"Sunscreen must be frequently reapplied to be effective," says dermatologist Dr. Beth Schulz-Butulis. "I recommend that people use sun protective clothing to the greatest extent that they can, since it provides constant protection."

Schulz-Butulis says it is important to make sure that the clothing has an ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) label on it--ideally UPF 40 or higher. "Just wearing a regular T-shirt in the water will not give significant protection," says Schulz-Butulis. "For girls and women, I highly recommend Girls4Sport. Girls4Sport has a wide variety of stylish short and long sleeve swim tops, bottoms, and board shorts available with a UPF of 50."

"Girls4Sport is focused on designing performance swimwear for women and girls that protects their skin from the sun's harmful rays without sacrificing style or comfort," says Girls4Sport President Kim Ruby.

Girls4Sport's surf-inspired line of swimwear for women and children provides the maximum UPF rating of 50, which blocks at least 98% of UVA and UVB rays. The line features short sleeve and lo fashion jackets ng sleeve rash guard tops, coordinating swim bottoms, board shorts in varying lengths, and even pants. Girls4Sport's products are available online at http://www.girls4sport.com.

Modesty Matters to God, New Xulon Press Book States

The clothing a person wears and the image they portray speaks volumes. The way a person dresses often causes other people to form an opinion of what kind of person they are. But what kind of a message is the way people dress sending to others? Do people see Christ or the world? Scripture proves that people are important to God and so is how they dress. Within the pages of Daughters of God .........Modesty Matters ($14.99, paperback, 978-1-61379-518-7; $22.99, hardcover, 978-1-61379-519-4; $7.49, eBook, 978-1-61379-592-7), a new Xulon title from Jennifer Peikert, the author teaches women how very important they are to God, how they are fearfully and wonderfull women's coats y made, and how even the way they dress is important to God.

"I hope readers learn that their value is not in how they look or act but simply because they were created by God Himself," the author says. "Modesty and how we convey ourselves to others matters to God. I believe God wants this truth conveyed to His girls and all of this book is scripturally based and God-inspired."

The author was prompted by God to write this book after learning—through real life experiences—that how women dress can impact their lives. She has witnessed firsthand how so many girls and women today expose their bodies for acceptance and love, and this book is her response to that troubling trend. "God has truly brought me from ashes to beauty," she explains. "I have learned to see myself through His eyes, and I have seen how women dressing immodestly has impacted lives. I live the life of dressing modestly and have learned how important it is to God."

Xulon Press, a division of Salem Communications, is the world's largest Christian publisher, with more than 8,000 titles published to date. Retailers may order Daughters of God .........Modesty Matters through Ingram Book Company and/or Spring Arbor Book Distributors. The book is available online through xulonpress.com/bookstore, amazon.com, and barnesandnoble.com.

TV Shows Inspire UK Fashion Choices

They may be privileged, but the stylish residents of TV's Made in Chelsea have sent sales of luxury brands soaring on fashion comparison site StyleCompare.co.uk. And rival TV show The Only Way is Essex has created a boom in sales of animal prints and more affordable labels as viewers strive to dress just like their favourite "constructed reality" stars.

CHELSEA GIRLS (AND GUYS)
Purchases of Hunter Wellies, an outdoor staple for the leisurely classes, have boomed by 200%, as devoted viewers rush online to bag their own versions of Chelsea's most iconic piece. Tweed blazers, a particular favourite of Chelsea bachelor and heart throb Spencer Matthews, have sent sales of Harrison Tweed soaring by over 800% on StyleCompare.co.uk since the second series began.

Sales of Jimmy Choos have boomed in popularity on the fashion comparison website, with sales increasing over a quarter (27%) since the start of the second series of the hit programme. Coveted labels such as Kurt Geiger (16% increase), Joules (26% increase) and Ralph Lauren (16% increase) have been flying off online shelves as viewers rush online to get their own slice of the luxury lifestyle.

ESSEX BITES BACK
Not to be outdone by their rivals in the West, the cast of The Only Way is Essex (TOWIE) are fast-becoming the nation's most unlikely fashion icons – sales of leopard print have boomed by 45% as lovers of TOWIE rush to snap up their own versions of the Essex girls' outfits.

In fact, purchases of leopard print smoking slippers by Dorothy Perkins have skyrocketed by 950% and as sales boom by over 650%, Boohoo's faux fur leopard print coat (pictured) is already a seasonal best-seller. Topshop's leopard print waterfall skirt is another popular purchase with online sales up more than 100%.

The buck doesn't just stop with leopard prints. All manner of animal-tastic looks, from snake (32% increase), zebra (10% increase) and crocodile (26% increase) have also seen a boost on the site sin women's coats ce the show's third series hit our screens.

Other brands which strike a chord with the TOWIE girls have similarly increased in popularity on the fashion comparison website. Glitzy, yet affordable fashion brand Lipsy has received a bump in sales by almost a quarter (24%) in recent weeks.

Johanna Payton, head of fashion at StyleCompare.co.uk commented: "The beauty of constructed reality TV shows like TOWIE and Made In Chelsea is that the stars choose their clothes for themselves, so unlike A-list celebs, this makes their style much easier for fans to copy."

"Fans of Made in Chelsea want their little taste of the glamorous world of champagne, partying and falling in and out of love. Much of what the Made in Chelsea stars wear is expensive, but it doesn't take too long to save up for a pair of Hunter wellies or Jimmy Choos, and it's an investment that noone regrets making. Feeling like you have a little part of the beautiful, glamorous world of Made in Chelsea is a powerful feeling indeed."

"The TOWIE girls have made fashion a huge part of the show's storyline by opening their own boutiques and clothing lines, and their entrepreneurial attitude is a great thing for the viewers to aspire to. The fake tans and cosmetic surgery might make some viewers turn off, but dressing with attitude is something many women are defiantly up for copying and we expect the trend to grow in the run up to Christmas when it's more acceptable to leave the house in head-to-toe leopard print and killer heels."

Zefferys said, "I wanted a beautiful bag that I could throw a pair of heels in while walking to an evening event in New York City in my flats. Everything I had was either too small, too big or too casual."

Oscar and Anna bags fashion coats are distinguished by two unique compartments: the upper space is suited for easy access to necessities like a wallet, phone, lipstick or iPod; and, the lower compartment--reached through high-quality zippers on the side panels--is perfect for toting heels, as an iPad carrying case, for stashing a cardigan, or even carrying wine.

According to Zefferys, "Oscar and Anna aims to provide women with a unique handbag experience. We will stick to our classics introducing variations on those styles. From time to time, we plan to design limited edition items to add sparkle to our collections. Ultimately, our goal is to stay small and focused on ultra-functional design and most importantly, timeless style."

New Cheapism Research Finds the Best Affordable Bras for Every Occasion

Consumers looking for a good bra to go underneath all those summer tops can look to Cheapism.com, a review site dedicated to finding quality low-cost products. Cheapism has researched key features and analyzed online reviews to identify the best cheap bras under $25: the Barely There Invisible Look Underwire for everyday, a Lilyette strapless bra that doubles as a minimizer for women with larger busts, a Maidenform push-up bra, and a sports bra by Moving Comfort.

While bras come in many different types, bra reviews indicate that comfort, support, fit, and durability are vital in any good bra, no matter the type. All the bras on Cheapism's list excel in these areas.

The top everyday bra, the Barely There Invisible Look Underwire (starting at $18), provides full coverage with seamless, lightly padded cups. Consumers find the bra comfortable, supportive, true to size, and, as the name suggests, invisible under clothing.

The Lilyette Tailored Strapless Minimizer Bra (starting at $17) earns a nod as the top cheap strapless bra. Consumers appreciate that they never have to yank up this bra, thanks in part to silicone grippers on the inside of the band that help prevent it from sliding. The band on a strapless bra should be wide to provide adequate support and stay securely in place.

The best cheap push-up bra, the Maidenform The Dream Bra Push-Up Bra (starting at $24), uses graduated padding to provide natural-looking lift that complements feminine curves. Although many women don't wear a push-up bra on a daily basis, reviewers deem this one comfortable enough for everyday.

The Moving Comfort Fiona (starting at $24) makes Cheapism's list as the top cheap sports bra, earning praise even from women with larger cup sizes. Reviews cite its women's coats ability to wick away sweat and provide ample support for high-intensity activities without being constrictive and making it harder to breathe.

Workplace Designer Fashion Tips For the Recent College Grad From ShopRDR.com

While success as an undergrad requires a delicate balance of work, study and of course, a little fun, maneuvering up the fiercely competitive corporate ladder can be a bit more confounding: A dedicated worker may earn high marks with his employer, but may also be overlooked for that big promotion in favor of an equally qualified employee whose office attire fit the part. Making a statement of ambition and professionalism is an effort of sight and sound, and as Rodeo Drive Resale (RDR) co-founder and women's style expert Raya Jaffer explains, communication may rule the nation, but a professional style must goes the extra mile.

"First, it is important to establish a difference between your wardrobe for an interview and one for work," Raya says, warning recent grads to dress their best no matter what job they are seeking. "Perhaps you will be applying for a position in a more casual environment. This does not give y women's coats ou the okay to be dressed in casual attire for the interview unless you are specifically asked to."

Once you score that real world job, Raya says that any woman hoping to build the ultimate professional wardrobe should begin with the following key pieces: A cardigan, flats, a white button-up shirt, white camisole, a pair of pumps, and most importantly, a basic black suit.

"Your basic suit pieces should be what most of your wardrobe budget is designated for," she told Consumer Media News. According to Raya, mixing and matching your clothing and accessories is a great way to breathe life into a basic suit over and over again. "By simply adding blouses and accessories from discount stores, one suit can be worn a million different ways throughout the entire year."

She went on to advise the newly hired to learn the fashion climate of their specific place of employment before taking any wardrobe risks. Every company has its own set of rules concerning acceptable office attire, so if there is ever any doubt, take notice of how the consistently well-dressed person in the office puts themself together and follow suit – but not too closely, no one likes a copycat.

Recent graduates that have their basic pieces and would like to advance their look while saving a few bucks are in luck, as stores such as Banana Republic, Loft and Express offer shoppers quality merchandise at a price that is easy on the wallet. In addition to these mid-range retailers, Raya notes consignment stores are also a great place to find deals on suits, slacks, shoes, and accessories. Designer fashion resellers such as RDR, offer authentic, well inspected designer items at a fraction of what it would cost brand new.

"Shopping 'pre-owned' is not only great for your budget, but for the environment as well. You can really score some great deals if you know what you are looking for," she said.

For those seeking more information on consignment, Raya suggests visiting RDR's online consignment page, which offers more info on buying and selling your luxury designer items.
