However, despite these measures, Borders had to put itself on the auction block earlier this year. Barnes &

Here, I am going to show how to add or remove borders around the images or sidebars, posts, etc in the CSS layouts. I will briefly explain border styles, and also how to change the border colors.A BorderOk, let's start. Go to your Dashboard, then go to Template and finally Edit HTML. To make it quicker to find the border coding, click CTRL+F and type "border". The border word will be highlighted throughout the coding, but you have to find the following:-border:1px solid $bordercolor;1. BorderThis is how the border coding starts. Sometimes, you may see instead of just “border”, you may see “border-top”, or “border-bottom”, “border-left” or “border-right”, that will depend on which element you want to add a border.2.

This morning I came across this tutorial in Layersmagazine. It covers clipping masks and brushes in Illustrator and Photoshop. Useful if you're trying to create a organic frame feeling or just want to give your work a finished state."There has been a surge of "grunge" effects lately that have been created using Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. So here's one more effect for your arsenal of grunge effects. In this tutorial, we'll show you how to create a custom brush and use it to create a really cool border mask in Illustrator, allowing you to apply it to a photo or graphic without affecting the original image. You can then take this mask and use it with any graphic that you want. It's simply a matter of getting used to working in mask mode." Full tutorialVectot Art

Interior decoration is an art and a natural sense of aesthetics in a decorator is a key factor. True distinction lies in paying attention to the details. Subtle finishing touches and unusual twists in the color combination make a room unique. To add a personal mark of creativity in any home decoration effort, many professional interior designers concentrate on the border design. Wallpaper borders are a versatile decoration platform. Furthermore, they are affordable and easy to install. Every wall takes on a finished look only with the addition of a matching or contrasting border.Placing a decorative border on the ceiling facilitates connecting of the overhead expanse of space to the walls. Decorators often refer to the ceiling as "the fifth wall," and as an additional canvas to apply their

Dear Secretary Rice:

Hamas desires the creation of a Palestinian state. According to your statements, so do you. I believe that if Hamas was convinced an independent Palestine would soon be created, they would agree to recognize Israel. They have indicated their willingness to do so explicitly and implicitly since the late 1990s. Here is only one example:
After its unexpected landslide election victory in January [2006], Hamas said it would not retreat from its goal of replacing the Jewish state with an Islamic one. It also resisted negotiations.
But the group backed down after a threat by Mr Abbas to hold a referendum on the issue as a means to en

Finally got around to reading the Borders (BGP) earnings call and the take away for me at least was very positive...

1- Guidance:
Despite a 2% comps sales increase number last year, guidance for the current year was in the words of CEO George Jones "very conservative", "given the current environment".
2- Cost cutting:
DVD "shrinkage" (read:theft) was at $20 million last year. The company has both made changes to security measures and will be reducing the...

It seems there are four options for a purchaser of Borders (BGP).
1- Barnes and Noble (BKS)
This has been talked about fr a few years now. The theory being that a combined entity would be better able to compete with Amazon (AMZN) without the cannibalization of the foot traffic market the two currently compete for.

As I am assuming most of us did, last week I took advantage of the Borders 40% off coupon and stocked up on some books. As I paid for them, the sales assistant asked me if I would like bag - and then proceeded to charge me for the plastic bag. And I'm not happy about this.

Things have not gone very well for Borders Group for a while now and with today's announcement that the corporation is considering putting part, or all, of itself up for sale one has to wonder how much longer the Borders bookstores will be open for business.

So yesterday I posed some questions about Borders (BGP) and today, answers came piling in.
Bill Ackman's Pershing Square Capital Management Borders's largest holder, has entered into the following agreement with Borders.
- A $42.5 million secured term loan to Borders at a 12.5% annual interest rate; the loan matures Jan. 15, 2009.

According to this story on Bloomberg, Bookseller Borders is in trouble and may be on its way to bankruptcy. If you hold a Borders gift card, you may want to redeem it now before you become a victim to what happened recently to gift card holders of The Sharper Image or Bombay Company after both declared bankruptcy and suspended redemption of all gift cards.
Today we’ll see earnings out of Borders Group, Inc. (NYSE: BGP). The estimates from First Call are $1.42 EPS on $1.34 billion in revenues. Next quarter...
