NEW YORK (AP) - New U.S. Census figures show New York City's poverty rate grew slightly last year and the median income remained lower than it was before the recession.
The city's poverty rate rose to 21.2 percent in 2012. That was up from 20.9 percent in 2011 and 20.1 percent in 2010.
The 2012 poverty rate was defined as $23,314 for a family of 4.
New York City's median household income was $50,895 last year. That's lower than the 2008 figure of $54,695 despite the economic recovery that started the following year.
Fourteen percent of New Yorkers had no health coverage.
The figures show stark economic inequality in New York City.
The mean household income of the lowest fifth was $8,993. The mean income of the highest fifth was $222,871.

Live Through This: Can Gay Rights Be Gained via HIV?
The July 2, 2009 ruling of Naz Foundation v. Government of NCT Delhi decriminalized homosexuality in India, and the world declared this a groundbreaking victory for the Indian gay rights movement. While India going gay made for sensational news, the issue that caught the world's attention wasn't actually the primary focus of the ruling. The issue at its heart of was HIV/AIDS.
About Those Swiss Minarets
At first glance, the ominous poster made by the Swiss People's Party (SVP) seemed to me to be depicting a burqa-clad woman standing in front of a stockpile of missiles. The starkly dubious message being: Stop Islamic Fundamentalism. After reading the accompanying article on Al Jazeera (and than many, many more elsewhere), the poster took on a new meaning: This is what Islamophobia looks like.

This is reference to the Taylor Swift article
I would like to point out that Taylor sings to teenage girls and that she captures the way that a good portion of teenage girls themselves feel about relationships. Like it or not sometimes those feelings are not always feminist ones. I do not think that her lyrics encourage that kind of thinking, but rather just express that it is real and it does happen. Being a teenage girl in our society is not an easy thing. We grow up with a whole mass of things surrounding our sexuality and how we are to date. I do not think that "fifteen" decries having sex. I do not get that out of the music at all. What I do get out of it is her telling other girls to be cautious about who they are having sex with, which I think is something that teenage girls do not hear enough.
I think that was Randy Thornhill and Craig T. Palmer

Exhibitionism for the Shy, by Carol Queen,
Yes Means Yes!, by Friedman & Valenti,
The New Bottoming Book and the New Topping Book, by Dossie Easton & Janet W. Hardy.
That's what I'm reading.
Here is Newsweek article on how men generally overestimate their intelligence, women generally underestimate their intelligence, and both groups tend to see men as more intelligent than women. (And this perception is incorrect, of course.)
Why does the "Queer the Census" sticker list as options "Lesbian/Gay/Bisexual/Transgender/A Straight Ally"? For one thing, it's transgendered, not transgender; for another, even though it says "check all that apply," it still feels like it's equating being trans with being sexually queer.
No. The authors you are thinking of are Thornhill and Palmer.
David Buss is an evolutionary psychologist who study factors contributing to homicide, stalking, and mating, and factors variation in behaviors across individuals from an evolutionary perspectives.
Are conversations about marginalized people valuable if they take place without those marginalized people included?
I don't think so.
Holy crap!
I also recently posted about MRAs! My piece was more specifically about gender roles and sexism, but my writing partner and I spent the better part of the weekend getting slagged by a small group of MRAs (because, evidently, we represent all the evil, nasty "femifascists" in the world) which forced us to respond which encouraged them to respond which forced us to respond again …
Did you run into the same problem? Nevermind- I'll go to your site and check it out!
I wrote about thanksgiving episodes on gossip girl and classic episode of the sopranos.
Mostly pleased with this week's glee, although I have some concerns about a scene of domestic violence.
A very silly conversation about nip/tuck.
Here is Lebron James' response to the prospect of women playing in the NBA….
Here's the highlight:
"I love all sports," [James] continued. "I love watching the girls, especially in the Olympics. They're wonderful in the WNBA. They're great. It's a lot of great players. But 10 years, that's pushing it. I think that's pushing it."
He wrote The Evolution of Desire, which is basically a similar pile of untestable, methodologically unsound evo psych bullshit. When I started reading the article and they said "but teh women are MYSTERIOUS!!!" about fifteen times in the first two paragraphs, I checked the authors' names again. Then I stopped reading the article when I remembered who Buss was. I would never, ever read a book about women's sexuality authored by a guy who would say that stalking and sexual harassment are mating strategies that somehow evolved in the EEA.
Yeah, I certainly wish the message was more often "be cautious" rather than "don't have sex at all."
Personally, what endears me to Swift is the fact that she has consistently refused to answer questions about whether she's abstinent or what her views are on sex. It seems to show that while she's not going to become a sex symbol in order to sell records, neither is she going to do the opposite and use her position to push abstinence and become a paragon of purity. Regardless of what her choices are, her opinion seems to be that they're private matters, and using her position to promote one or another view of sex to young girls is abusing her power. I wish more teenage starlets (I clearly remember both Hilary Duff and Britney Spears using their stardom to promote abstinence, and Spears it turned out wasn't even a virgin herself) could do what Swift is doing rather than feeling the need to be swayed one way or another.
(Even if it turns out she is planning to be abstinent until marriage, that doesn't change my opinion of her. I know quite a number of people who've made that choice for themselves, and I have a great deal of respect for people who are also able to refrain from getting sanctimonious and preachy, and accept that it's not the choice for everyone.)
Ann wrote that he shot or stabbed 27 people, not that he killed them all.
As angering as the breastfeeding article is, I couldn't help but laugh at this: "This specific situation escalated to a point where we were concerned for the safety of our guests."
How in the world would a woman breastfeeding be dangerous to other people? Is her breastmilk a caustic acid?
I agree with you, rebekah. I do actually think teens are told to be cautious about sex with some frequency, but I don't think that the message is anti-feminist. Sex is wonderful and scary and in many ways dangerous and caution is advisable. The song exists in a cultural context of slut shaming and that is relevant to any interpretation of the song, but I don't find the song to be participatory. That's my opinion.
Now it is kind of hard to defend "Love Story" from a feminist perspective, but I don't think its super necessary to hate on her for it, especially the video. If I had been able to make music videos when I was 17 they would have looked much the same. But I think that "You Belong With Me" and "Our Song" are worthy of some feminist kudos. But maybe that's just me.
Maybe they thought they might contain bullets, in which case it was more about pulling a dangerous weapon – after all, boobs are scary, aren't they? Mine even scare me sometimes!
Maybe they thought she was a fembot from Austen Powers.
In a silly FB status, I responded to the song, "You Belong With Me" by writing, "I wear short skirts, you were t-shirts…" in an attempt to challenge the notion that the "right" girl is the "girl next door." I guess I kinda took a "choose the good girl, not the bad girl!" message from that song.
the wording last night was "killed 27 people". i guess she changed it since then.
"You Belong With Me" is about a Nice Guy[tm] that happens to be female.
Just imagine a guy singing it, complaining that the girl he has a crush on is going out with the captain of the football team, who "doesn't treat her right" and doesn't understand her, while she sees him as "just a friend".
How is the new bottoming book? I was thinking about putting it on my xmas wish list. ^^
At my blog good girls don't, I wrote a whorephobia 101 post about how stereotypes and tropes are harmful to a productive dialogue about sex work.
I just read your post, as well! (Your comment was stuck in mod for some reason I couldn't figure out, so it took a while for me to see it.) Great post, BTW.
Ah! It's good so far! I'm all excited. I haven't read much on the topic. I'll let you know when I finish it.
not to mention they exclude queer, intersex, questioning, pansexual, genderqueer, transsexual, trans, asexual… :/ that sticker doesn't exactly aim to include everyone, although it's a step in the right direction.

The Best Things in Life Are Free, For Investors There's MasterCard
Ryan is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
A SWOT analysis is a look at a company's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats, and is a tremendous way to gain a detailed and thorough perspective on a company and its future. As the 2012 year draws to a close, I would like to pinpoint on a leader in the global payment industry, MasterCard (NYSE: MA).
- Explosive Revenue Growth: In 2006, MasterCard reported revenue of $3.3 billion; in 2011, the company announced revenue of $6.7 billion, representing year over year annual growth of 15.22%, a trend that widely anticipated to sustain well into the future, with projections placing 2016 revenue at $10.8 billion; this growth is a result of a combination of an increase in transactions processed and an increase in the fee derived from each transaction
- Dividend: Currently MasterCard pays out quarterly dividends of $0.30, which annualized puts the dividend as yielding 0.25%
- Institutional Vote of Confidence: 78% of shares outstanding are held by institutional investors, displaying the confidence some of the largest investors in the world have in the company and its future
- Double Digit Margins: At the moment MasterCard possesses a net profit margin of 28.38%, which represents a strong and profitable company; these comfortable margins are a result of MasterCard's low operating expenses and solid revenue streams
- Lack of Debt: The company currently only carries roughly $1 million of debt on their balance sheets, a major upside to the business
- Lucrative Business Model: MasterCard has millions of customers, all of which have a credit or debit card, and every time one of these customers utilizes their MasterCard to complete a financial transaction, the company earns a slim fee, providing the company with millions of solid revenue streams
- Cash & Equivalents: Currently, MasterCard possesses about $3.0 billion of cash and cash equivalents on their balance sheets, a major upside to the business
- Pricy Valuation: At the moment MasterCard carries a price to earnings ratio of 28.23, a price to book ratio of 10.51, and a price to sales ratio of 9.00, all of which point to a company that is vastly overvalued, however MasterCard's growth compensates for some of the valuation
- #2 in Industry: According to Nilson Report, based on total transaction volume, MasterCard holds a 31% market share, behind the leading company, Visa, with a 63% market share
- Capturing Market Share: MasterCard's current market share, 31%, leaves plenty of room for expansion into the future, and with this massive opportunity; MasterCard has poured millions into advertising campaigns in an attempt to gain market share
- Dividend Growth: Since implementing their dividend program in 2006, MasterCard has consistently raised their dividend payouts, and further growth in the dividend is highly probable
- Growth in # of Transactions: Over the past years, the total number of transactions processed by Mastercard has exploded, and further growth in this sector is highly anticipated and should fuel growth into the future
- Mobile Payment Applications: The established world is rarely utilizing cash for financial transactions, however the mobile payment application trend may be the payment method of the future, and Mastercard is on a short list of companies that will benefit from this distinctive trend; with the company developing its pay pass technology
- Emerging Market Growth: In 2010, MasterCard derived $220 billion from its Latin American region; in 2011, the company drew $277 billion from this region, representing growth of 25.90%; growth in the company's Asia Pacific/Middle East/ Africa region from 2010 to 2011 came in at 30.05%, and further growth into the future is likely to stem from emerging markets such as these two regions
- Competition: MasterCard faces several other major corporations in the global payment industry, and this competition can lead to serious margin compression
- Stagnant Global Economic Landscape: In an economic landscape riddled with such uncertainty and stagnation, consumers are less willing to complete financial transactions, hurting MasterCard's revenue
- Fiscal Cliff: If the United States was to fall off of the fiscal cliff, tax rates would be raised on all Americans, leaving consumers with less money to spend, and in turn crippling MasterCard's growth
Major publically traded competitors of MasterCard include Visa (NYSE: V), American Express (NYSE: AXP), Discover (NYSE: DFS), and Capital One (NYSE: COF). All of these companies offer products and services similar if not identical to those of MasterCard's. Visa is the largest threat to MasterCard, being valued at $100.12 billion, pays out a dividend yielding 0.88%, and carries a price to earnings ratio of 80.20. American Express is valued at $62.98 billion, pays out a dividend yielding 1.42%, and carries a price to earnings ratio of 13.03. Discover is valued at $18.73 billion, pays out a dividend yielding 1.49%, and carries a price to earnings ratio of 8.47. Finally, Capital One is valued at $33.10 billion, pays out a dividend yielding 0.35%, and carries a price to earnings ratio of 9.45.
The Foolish Bottom Line:
MasterCard is a perfect investment in all aspects except one, its pricy valuation. The company possesses accelerated revenue growth, double digit margins, a growing dividend, virtually no debt, an impeccable business model, and a predictable future filled with opportunity and growth. Despite the company's high valuation, MasterCard is a tremendous addition to any portfolio that values growth and financial strength.

How is it that many professional photographers rarely follow their own advice? I see SO many pros giving advice to people aspiring to make photography a career by saying "it's not about the equipment, you don't need expensive equipment". Yet you're out there with expensive lighting, $10,000+ medium format rigs, full frame DSLR's. Eric Kim says "buy books, not gear", yet he walks around with $10,000+ worth of Leica gear. If he followed his own advice, he'd be shooting with a P&S. What gives?
Because we got to medium format gear and Leica's with crap gear. We started somewhere. Most of us got caught up in chasing the gear instead of the light, the moment, the photo. I had more gear at one point in my life than I knew what to do with.
Give me a Canon Rebel and a kit lens and send me on a job and I can get the job done. Is it the camera I most want to use? No. Is there a place and time to upgrade? Yes. You build up to that. The reason I preach that it isn't about the gear is because I finally learned… that it isn't about gear. Great photography isn't about the gear. It just isn't.
David duChemin has a great quote… "Gear is great. Vision is better."
So I have a PhaseOne hanging around my neck and I'm telling you it's not about the gear. I got that PhaseOne by having to work my ass to the bone with minimal gear that was held together with gaff tape and the Holy Spirit. The PhaseOne didn't get me here. The crap gear got me here. I'm also not shooting the same stuff I was with the D100 and Vivitar 285 that I used to shoot. The level of work I'm doing is rising and the quality of what I want to produce is rising. Gear helps. It does. It doesn't make you a photographer though. That's the stuff between your ears that makes you a photographer. That's why Kim says to buy books and not gear.
If you can do a lot with a little then you will grow. You'll prosper. You'll get to finally own some decent kit but I swear you'll look back and realize that it wasn't gear that got you to where you are.

Blaine couple reaches out to flood victims in Pakistan
Published on Wed, Sep 1, 2010 by
By Tara Nelson
Read More
As a child growing up in Pakistan, Blaine resident Nasreen Chaudhry knew first hand what it felt like to be forced from her home.
It was the mid 1950s when religious conflicts between India and Pakistan forced Muslims – including Chaudhry and her family – to pack their belongings and move. So when she heard recent media accounts of nearly 20 million people being displaced by flooding there, she said she felt particular need to reach out and help.
"When I was growing up people just left their homes with all their belongings in buggies and were forced to start all over again," she said. "That was political thing and this is a natural disaster but it's the same thing. Most of those people won't go back to their original homes; they're basically homeless."
And as Chaudhry and her husband, Maqbool, observe the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, they thought it was a perfect time to act. The couple is helping to organize a fundraising dinner at 7:30 p.m. Sunday, September 5 in Bellingham.
All proceeds will go to Islamic Relief USA to benefit Pakistani flood victims.
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar in which practicing Muslims refrain from eating and drinking from dawn until sunset. During this time, worshipers ask forgiveness for past sins, pray for guidance and try to purify themselves through self-restraint and good deeds.
"The month of Ramadan is a great challenge to those who have the compassion to do good things," Maqbool said. "We've been watching it on the news and we thought we should do whatever little we can do about it. It's also an opportunity to bring people in the community together and share a meal. In all the craziness that's going on in the world, we need to do as much good as possible because we are all connected."
The event is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Sunday, September 5 in the second floor meeting space in the RE Store building at 2309 Meridian Street in Bellingham.
Dinner will include Egyptian and Pakistani food as well as a presentation by the national group Islamic Relief about work relief currently being done in Pakistan.
Those who cannot attend to the dinner are welcome to donate online at
or by calling 888-479-4968.
For more information about Sunday's event, call 360/961-3576.

8 Frustrating Breastfeeding Challenges—and Solutions
From latching issues to supply problems, thrush to mastitis, breastfeeding issues are common among new moms! Our expert resolves your more pressing (and painful!) breastfeeding challenges.
Milk Oversupply
Although concern about not having enough milk is the number-one reason that mothers wean their babies early, having too much milk (commonly referred to as oversupply) can also be a problem.
Symptoms of oversupply for moms are:
- Strong or even painful sensation when milk ejects
- Constant breast fullness or engorgement
- Frequent spraying of milk from one or both breasts
- Excessive leaking
- More than one let-down per nursing session
- Repeated mastitis and plugged ducts
- Sore nipples
Oversupply is equally difficult for Baby. Infants whose moms have too much milk will often exhibit symptoms such as fussing, pulling off the breast, colicky crying, gassiness, spitting up, and hiccupping.
Effects of oversupply on Baby:
- These infants may want to nurse frequently and they may gain weight more rapidly than the average baby (who usually gains 4 to 8 ounces each week during the first three or four months), or they may gain weight more slowly than the average baby.
- Their stools may be explosive, green and watery, and their bottoms may be red and sore.
- The mother's letdown reflex may be so forceful that the baby chokes, gags and sputters as he struggles when her milk lets down.
- Baby may be misdiagnosed by health care providers with colic, lactose intolerance, or GER (gastro esophageal reflux). The diagnosis may result in unnecessary interruption of breastfeeding and unnecessary prescribing of medications.
Causes of oversupply: When a woman has a more than abundant supply of milk and Baby is consuming large quantities of it, an imbalance can occur in which the lactose he is taking in from the breast is not able to be broken down by his own body's lactase (the enzyme that breaks down and helps in the digestion of sugar). The sugar that accumulates in his gut can cause upset and bloating—leading to the fussy behavior and explosive stools.
Dr. Christina Smillie, MD, of Breastfeeding Resources, one of the leaders in hyperlactation research, explains this phenomenon as follows: "Hyperlactation itself is not something inherent in the mother anatomy or physiology or caused by the infants feeding style, but is rather a vicious cycle of behaviors initiated and reinforced by cultural expectations (i.e.; rigid schedules and the idea of having to feed from both breasts) and rules for feeding, which overrule basic instincts toward homeostasis.
Learning to trust her body, to listen to her infant and to let comfort needs guide behavior, can help restore comfort to the feeding situation, and in this way, help them stop the vicious cycle of symptoms of abundant milk supply."
Use these tips to reduce your overall milk supply:
- Try one-sided feedings. Let Baby finish up on one breast without offering the other. Remember—you have plenty of milk. Some moms may even nurse two feedings in a row on one breast. By leaving milk in the "unused" breast, your body gets the signal to slow down production.
- "Pump to comfort" the other breast. You'll feel a lot of fullness on the "unused" side. The tendency is to want to pump to empty the breast. Only pump to relieve pressure. If you are uncomfortable—feeling engorged—you can pump for a few minutes. By removing some milk, it will relieve the pressure but not empty the breast fully.
- Be on the lookout though for plugged ducts or even mastitis.
- Use ice packs to help reduce swelling.

Echo Force Zero: Vol1
**Thanks for Daily First and FP !! CHEERS **
**also, if you don't like anime-inspired stuff or character archetypes, you probably wont care much for this ..you've been warned**
Well, i am Very happy to be getting this thing up! I worked very hard on this and am very happy with the results - - I have decided to classify it as an "Adventure Drama" as far as genre so keep that in mind
i want to thank all the incredible voice actors who really helped me bring this thing to life. and thanks to monoflauta for helping me code it all together
**Don't forget to find the hidden Scene! There will be one in each episode and it will be adding extra canon plot points - -HINT -- you dont have to click anywhere**
Check it out on youtube here:
http://www.youtube.com/wa tch?v=HD5YKEEQlPs
Later guys!
Must say that this is almost like very video game that i ever palyed and every anime i ever seen, none the less I liked it.. but wished the animation was better.. don't get me wrong it's good but I believe you can do soo much more. :)
Probably just me...
But I can't seem to watch it at all - it just keeps skipping onto the next scene after a few seconds. What gives? :(
It's alright
I thought this was pretty decent, though there were a few things I felt were off.
The voice acting was very good, like believable and clear to hear. Only once or twice did it sound a bit off.
The animation was nice, and I can see a lot of effort was put into it so I feel like a douchebag when I say at some points the bodies seemed a little stiff and robotic.
The plot is awesome and I'm looking forward to seeing the next episode.
The overall feel of the flash was that it moved a little slowly and at certain points did the camera angle feel wrong, or that some expressions seemed mistimed.
Other than that, t''was awesome. Looking forward to more.
Quite remarkable,
Not only do you have an remarkable line-up of names for your voices, but it looks like this may build up to something amazing. Looking forward to upcoming episodes.
free medal bro :)

Student Association
The Southwest Baptist University Student Association is a dedicated team of servant leaders who strive to improve the lives of students at SBU through the empowerment of clubs and organizations and acting on behalf of the student body.
What do we do?
Student Association exists to enhance and enrich the student experience at SBU. We do this through our three committees.
Student Relations Committee
This committee actively pursues student input and is constantly looking for ways to improve the SBU experience. We host events such as coffee breaks, forums, and other activities to provide an avenue for students to make their voices heard. Volunteer opportunities are also provided for students through this committee.
Campus Improvement Committee
If you ever see or experience anything on campus and wish that it were different, this committee exists to address these issues. This can encompass physical improvements (recent renovations include sand volleyball courts, the game room, and Randolph chapel), or intangible improvements such as policy changes.
Organization Empowerment Committee
One of the most important responsibilities of the Student Association is allocating funds to the 30+ student-led clubs and organizations. As most students are involved in at least one of these academic or social clubs/organizations, this is one of the best ways we can impact students. We encourage you to get involved in the many clubs and organizations that exist on campus; and if we don't have one that fits you, contact us for more information on starting your own club and receiving funding from the Student Association.
How to get involved
As an SBU undergraduate student, you are automatically a member of the Student Association. We are funded through a student fee that every student pays, including you, so you have a vested interest in the activities of SA. We encourage you to be as involved as you like to be in the activities that we do. There are a few ways to get involved:
- Be in the know! Like us on Facebook (www.facebook.com/SBUnivSA) and follow us on Twitter (@SBUnivSA)
- Come to our forums and coffee breaks to give your input and see what's going on.
- If you see something on campus you'd like changed, tell us!
- Join a committee! If you would like to play a more active role in SA while also developing your leadership skills and impacting your fellow students, joining a committee is the next step for you. Contact any of the executive cabinet members (see below) if you are interested in serving on a committee.
How to contact us
Don't hesitate to contact one of our executive cabinet members; we would love to talk with you! Contact us via phone, text, Facebook, Twitter or email; or just stop us when you see us on campus.

I've been a bit busy this year, some stuff I'm still finishing off and some stuff I'm only just starting, but in the mean time here is a video playlist of the animation and video work I've produced over the past 12 months, which comes to a little over 38 minutes of footage:
Sunrise, Dun Laoghaire pier, 17/02/2005. Made using 52 video clips taken at 2-4 minute intervals as the sun rose. 2005

Hi sthiruvikraman26;
I can not make out anything of what you have written. You could latex it up
Your last one:
Is true.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
I have the result, but I do not yet know how to get it.
All physicists, and a good many quite respectable mathematicians are contemptuous about proof.

Kate Middleton's pregnancy certainly looked flawless, and apparently the actual experience of welcoming Prince George into the world wasn't far off.
In October's Vanity Fair, sources close to the Duchess of Cambridge reveal that her birth plan went exactly according to plan ... doesn't it figure?
"She spoke to some of her best girlfriends after the birth and described the birth as perfect," a source told Vanity Fair's longtime royal reporter Katie Nicholl.
"She said it was straightforward and there were no complications. She wanted a natural birth and she was so happy she was able to have one."
This on top of the fact that throughout her entire first pregnancy, Kate Middleton, 31, only looked pregnant from the front with a perfect baby bump.

About the site
This demonstration site provides a collection of skyscrapers in the United States and enables you to browse and search them by city, architect and various other factors. While much of the skyscraper data should be accurate, it is not necessarily comprehensive, up-to-date or complete. This site was built to serve as a demonstration of ProcessWire in addition to providing insight into US skyscrapers. The full source code for this site is available on GitHub.

Please note
Save functions and image editing functions are disabled for this demo.
Another easy way to test out ProcessWire without downloading and installing it is to use lightning.pw. This will create a new ProcessWire installation specific to you, using one of the default site profiles.
Posted by Brian Larson on Jan 9, 2011 10:01 PM
This looks like an awesome project! I was very impressed with the great design of the demo site , and the simplicity and elegance of the admin interface. I look forward to learning more about ProcessWire and see how it evolves. I'm very interested in checking out the API to see if it's something a designer like myself could handle. I know it has been compared to jQuery (which I also need to learn more about!).

In this page it says "The full source code for this site is available with the skyscrapers site profile on the download page." but I cannot find it anywhere in that page. Is this still available for download? Thanks!

Like Mario I'm wonder where to found the sources of the demo Skyscrappers, it's will be very nice to read it.
Great job, I like it and certainely use it

Oh, I've been looking to get this profile some time ago (before it was ported to PW), and here it is! Time to take a look inside to see how it all works together. Great project, BTW.

This looks very interesting. I've been using ModX for more than 5 years now...I've just recently started looking for a new CMS to play around with. Looking forward to learning more about PW.

I've used Kiss My Face products before, and as the amazing Peaches and Cream moisturizer is still elusive, I chose the Honey and Calendula as it was on sale for $5 for the 16 oz.
It's difficult to rub in, and takes a while to settle, but I think that's pretty common for Kiss My Face. It's a decent moisturizer, but the smell makes me absolutely nauseous. If you can stomach the scent, as it sticks around FOREVER, go for it. This isn't for me. I'm returning this and ordering one I know I like.
I wound up having to find something more emollient :( i still adore the smell!!
I love this product. I love this product. and just incase you forgot... I LOVE THIS PRODUCT. I am a sucker for sweet smells, and the combination of honey and calendula is a sure-fire win for me. It moisturizes very well. I use it right out of the shower on moist skin and let it air dry before I put on my clothes and voila! Beautifully moisturized skin. It's simple and cheap.. and the healthier ingredients in Kiss My Face's products VS other drugstore products are enough to keep me repurchasing.
I just don't like this lotion. I've been hunting for an amazing lotion to help with my super dry skin. I've literally never had this problem before so I'm extremely frustrated when nothing seems to work.
I don't think this moisturizers well enough. I was intrigued my the coconut oil ingredient which is listed I think 2nd or 3rd. It has a lot of penetrative qualities. However my skin still feels dry, maybe tight after I put this on. And what's even weirder is that my skin felt really hot and I felt this prickly burning sensation on certain areas.
The smell isn't good either. I was hoping for a real honey smell, like Burt's bees type or something . But no, very strange kinda like hairspray.
My hunt still continues but this by far is the worst lotion I've ever tried.
I tested the Lavender on one hand thand the Honey & Calendula on the other. I selected Lavender. I shopped for about 30 minutes with the Lavender in my cart. I kept sniffing the back of the hand that had the H&C and it was lovely. Smells just like honey and you guessed it calendula. When I got the check out line, I rushed to the exchange the Lavender for the Honey & Calendula. Why? My hand was softer and the fragrance was so comforting. Also, of the two lotions, this one did not make my very dry skin itch. I took it home and used it on my body and my face. That was last night. This morning, my skin was still moisturized. Wow. I haven't been so pleased with a lotion in a long, long, time. The fragrance is not cloying and gets only better as it mixes with my body chemistry. I only wish it didn't have a pump. I prefer squeeze bottles. Will repurchase.
I like this a lot, and just to clarify on someone else's post this no longer contains mineral oil as the third ingredient so hooray on that or else it wouldn't be very natural now would it?! As for it's moisturizing properties I think it does an okay job, but I use it more for the healing properties. It is very thick, but if you apply it right after washing your face with warm water you will find that it sinks right into your skin instantaneously. It didn't act as a barrier on my skin which I somewhat prefer as well because my skin feels quite dry and chapped in the winter. Since it does sink in like it does, my skin seems to drink in all the benefits this has to offer and my blemishes heal much more quickly and it is helping to fade some hyperpigmentation. The only thing I do not like is when I wake up in the morning (after applying at night) my face feels dry.
I purchased this after a major overhaul of my beauty products. I would much prefer to use as many natural products as I can. I thought the Honey Calendula scent sounded like it would be the nicest smelling of all of Kiss My Face's lotions. Initially I wasn't too pleased with the scent of the Calendula. I love the ingredient itself, as I know it's very good for skin, but the smell of it is just....eh. I adore honey in beauty products like this. If it has honey in it, I WILL TRY IT. However the combo of honey and calendula scent wise smelled like a dead flower to me initially. I'm not sure why, it simply smelled like dead flowers in not so fresh water to me. That was my reaction to it initially, but personally I have rather sensitive olafactory senses. I warmed to the scent and by the time I got midway through my bottle, I found the smell to be much nicer. In terms of it's moisturizing capabilities, it's not bad, but rather so-so to me. My skin was certainly not dry while I was using it, but it didn't provide anywhere near the super softness I like to feel after I moisturize. I do however find the packaging to be uber cute. I won't be buying this again, as I simply wasn't impressed enough.
I really really love the scent of this moisturizer. On some other 'good guide' websites etc I saw bad reviews on this product. I wonder why! Is it because of the retinyl palmitate ingredient?
I thought this cream is good. The smell is pleasant, it does an okay job of moisturizing. The calendula ingredient is soothing on the skin. Honey attracts moisture to the skin. The lotion has a silky, creamy consistency.
Somewhat difficult to apply the lotion as it does not spread easily. Way too expensive. The small travel size tube costs 5 bucks!
I can see how the scent wouldn't appeal to everyone, but I love it! I keep a bottle on my desk at work so I just use it on my hands, but I feel like it absorbs and moisturizes well. Will repurchase whenever the bottle finally runs out.
Eh. I have this on my desk at work as a hand moisturizer and it doesn't do the best job.
Relatively cheap for a "natural" product
Fewer scary chemicals than most other moisturizers
Not very moisturizing
Not wild about the scent
Expected something with honey to be very rich and moisturizing
i really like this lotion for my dry itchy feet. since i moved to the desert my feet look horrible & feel it too! but when i put this stuff on at night it sinks in & makes them feel a lil better & a whole lot less itchy. (no i don't have athletes foot,just super dry cracked heels) the smell doesn't bother me either,its a light natural scent. its prob because i work w/ a lot of ess oils & carrier oils so im used to the smell.

Wallpaper Season - Sweet 16
I vowed to have a wallpaper done for ya'll for tomorrow's game and HERE IT IS! I actually made two, and while I definitely like the first one best, the second actually took me longer to put together. I just was TOO frustrated with my keyboard/mouse combo that I have yet to replace to go any further in refining it. Hope you like them. As always, constructive criticism and/or ideas for future wallpapers are welcome. BEAT THE VOLS! CHARLES WOODSON! 2014!
"Simply Sixteen" Desktop (1920x1080):

Wallpaper Season - Round of 32 (Texas)
That is it. This wallpaper was SO much fun to make and, in my humble opinion, one of my best works from a pure photoshop experience. Last year I was on my game for the Tournament wallpapers, so I'm trying hard to bring it again this time. BTW, I know you wouldn't put a tag on a trophy piece, but it helped the image.
Anyway, hope you like it. Here's to rooting for back-to-back Sweet Sixteen appearances from the Wolverines for the first time since the Fab Five. Go Blue, beat Texas!
"Hook 'em [on the wall], Wolverines!" Desktop (1920x1080)
Wallpaper Season - Wofford Win
It's that magical time of year when the weather seems poised to thaw the cold of a brutal winter and March Madness is on the brink of wiping out all productivity I hoped to achieve at my job. At home, I spend my time trying to beat last year's wallpapers for the tournament. Here's a hint: I don't think (outside of another Final Four run) I can even come close to topping last year's bevy of well-crafted work I pulled out of my ass at 2 am. But, hey, I can try to at least give you something decent to work with. That being said, these are just some generic wallpapers I've been working on this week (yes, I know it's Monday...THIS WEEK...it's a sad obsession). Hopefully, you will enjoy at least one of these until I get a tournament-flavored treat ready for you. That is, if I don't collapse from sleep-deprivation before uploading them. Also, my keyboard and mouse are dying on me...
"We Focus" Desktop (1920x1080)
"Win the game!" Desktop (1920x1080) [Comic-style panel #1]
"How are we going to play?" Desktop (1920x1080) [Comic-style panel #2]
"Not just a shooter!" Desktop (1920x1080) [Comic-style panel #3]
Ok, so these were quick and fun. I enjoyed putting the three panels together to form one super widescreen set-up at home. As I mentioned above, hopefully you will find one or two to hold you over until the real wallpapers arrive with the tournament. As always, constructive criticism and/or suggestions for future wallpapers are welcome.
Go Blue!
WE STAY - Jordan Morgan Tribute Wallpaper
Not much to say other than "Thank you" to JMo. Hell of a time at UM. He's been a source of great joy and great consternation for MGoBlog. Anyway, I'll be keeping this short since my keyboard/mouse are on the fritz. Hope you enjoy this! I'll be working on some more wallpapers for the tourney just like last year. As always, any ideas you'd like to see are welcome.
Go Blue!

2014 Michigan Basketball wallpaper
It's about time we have some new Michigan basketball wallpapers. Last year, I made a couple intricate ones of a "throwback" roster photo an Atlanta-themed one come tourney time. Recently, I wanted to make something bold and simple, but that would also tie into this year's team.
Behold WE WORK. I've made one for desktops (widescreen and fullscreen), plus an iPad version that is built to rotate with your device and another for the iPhone. You can download all of them HERE.
As always, if you have any ideas for other wallpapers, post in the comments and I'll make others throughout the rest of the season.

"Sloppy." "Lazy." "Slow." Franki Northern-King gets the message loud and clear, and constantly. "I've been called all those things—and let's not forget 'stinky,'" says the 32-year-old business-management student from Huntington, West Virginia. "At 5'3" and 250 pounds, I'm reminded of my weight 50 times a day by store clerks, coworkers, family, boyfriends, you name it," says Northern-King, who goes to school full-time and works 20 hours a week to earn tuition money. "I feel like people have forgotten how to see the human being."
Shocking? Maybe. But the judging wouldn't surprise Elise Maggioncalda, 24, who works at a neuroscience lab in Charleston, South Carolina. She's experienced it too, even though she's eight inches taller and 120 pounds lighter. "I'm really aware of being stereotyped as an uptight, controlling, unwomanly, bitchy person," she says, "and all kinds of people do it, from waitresses commenting on my order to shoppers at the supermarket. I'm not walking around with a scowl on my face, but it's completely obvious they're hating on me."
Retouching: How Much Is Too Much?
Discrimination against heavier people is well documented—and, sadly, rising: a full 66 percent in the past decade, according to a Yale University study. But could this kind of bias extend to women of all sizes? And are people looking at your body and making assumptions about your life—and your personality?
To find out, Glamour commissioned an exclusive poll of more than 1,800 women ages 18 to 40, designed with guidance from Rebecca Puhl, Ph.D., director of research and weight stigma initiatives at Yale's Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity. We asked respondents to imagine a woman whom they had never met and knew nothing about except that she was "overweight" or "thin"; they then had to choose from pairs of words, like ambitious or lazy, to describe her. They could select neither, but fewer than half did—a telling statistic, according to Puhl. "Weight," she says, "is one of the last acceptable prejudices."
And not only is this bias acceptable, the results of our survey show—it's out of control.

A Google spokesperson said: "The blog in question was mistakenly taken down by our automated system. As soon as we became aware of this, we immediately reinstated it." Regardless, Tavi has since removed the offending picture, and the site's back up. Breathe easy, fashion community. [WSJ, Fashionista, Style Rookie]

LAMU, Kenya, Oct. 4 (UPI) — A friend of an elderly French woman kidnapped in northern Kenya said he suspects the men who took Marie Dedieu from her vacation home had local help.
Alain Lardet told Radio France Internationale locals probably informed the kidnappers of Dedieu's arrival on Manda Island in the resort archipelago of Lamu.
"The kidnappers must have had local information," Lardet said. "They must have been warned of her arrival. They came looking for a European."
Kenyan police questioned an employee of the kidnapped woman Monday.
Dedieu, 66, a paraplegic who suffers from a heart ailment, needs to take medication every day, Lardet said, adding that without it her life is in danger.
The wheelchair she uses to get around was left behind by the Somali gunmen who kidnapped her early Saturday.

My child goes tO this school it's a great school but the dismissal here is horrible and needs to b fixed!!
I would like for parent envolvement to become a big part in this school. I find it odd that your not allowed to walk your child to their class or talk to the teacher unless in writing.
Church Creek is a nice community school. The teachers are terrific. As a PTA member, we are hoping the new principal will consider the needs of the community prior to making changes. Parents involvement is not encouraged. We are hoping this will change.

I'm just gonna come out and say this: I feel really bad for Khloe Kardashian. There's been a whole bucket load of incriminating evidence disseminated on the Interwebs that her husband Lamar Odom had an affair with some woman named Jennifer Richardson. And THEN -- after shit hit the fan, even more rumors spread that the couple was separating for a while and then there was that whole shebang where Lamar went crazy on paparazzi.
Welp, Khloe and her main squeeze are apparently not only spending tons of time together (as married couples do), but also flaunting it for the world to see. Looking cute as can be, Khloe and Lamar puckered up and posted the snuggly picture to her Instagram with a simple kissy face as the caption.
Well, seems like "cheating" or not, Khloe and Lamar know where their hearts are at.
I don't know about all of you, but personally I think Khloe and Lamar have a very strong marriage. Sure, that's based solely off of what I gather watching reality TV -- but the couple seems head-over-heels in love every single time they show footage of 'em.
With that said, they're the only two people who really know the entire story top to bottom. Whether or not Lamar cheated on Khloe, it seems like they've addressed what's happened and want to move forward as one unit despite all the negativity. That's the best thing the Odoms can do, honestly: stick together.
Do you think Khloe and Lamar will make it through this?

Lamar shouldnt do it again knowing that she does love him. Khloe is the best of the sisters and she doesnt deserve to be treated that way. Khloe deserves respect, love , happiness and not being dragged into these low life scandals.
Absolutely love Khloe and Lamar. Hang in there.

Recent Royal College of Art graduate Po-Chih Lai has designed a skateboard that can cruise down stairs without a second thought. Called the Stair Rover, it's the semi of skateboards, an 8-wheeled beast that's quite literally "rocking" an aluminum Y-frame to transform stairs into a passive-propelling landscape.
