Resist Super-Light Daily Wrinkle Defense SPF 30 is a very good, very lightweight daytime moisturizer with sunscreen that is ideal for oily to combination skin (including the acne prone). The sheer cream formula is fragrance free, and dries to a matte finish that would likely be considered drying for anyone outside of this skin type—but if you battle oily skin, this is a sunscreen you'll likely love.
Broad-spectrum sun protection is provided by its zinc oxide actives, which makes this ideal for those with sensitive skin, too.
Due to the pure zinc oxide formula, Paula's Choice added a slight tint to offset the telltale white cast. While the brand advertises this as a universal tint, those with super-fair skin may find it iffy. We tested it on staffers with light, medium and deep skin tones and the sheer color worked well (it is totally invisible when worn under makeup, too).
As it is a daytime moisturizer, it also contains a nice mix of antioxidants and anti-irritants, which boosts its free-radical protection abilities and makes it especially helpful for those prone to sensitivity concerns, such as rosacea. Its matte finish wears well throughout the course of the day, and serves as an excellent "primer" for makeup.
Resist Super-Light Daily Wrinkle Defense SPF 30 earns its rating due to its addition of beneficial ingredients, longwearing matte finish, lightweight texture and mostly neutral tint.

Last week I received a stack of PC samples; Cleansers, Toners, Serums, Exfoliants, Moisturisers... all of which I couldn't be more impressed with; I wasn't expecting such dramatic results, let alone in the space of a week. But I've unintentionally stumbled across, what I can whole-heartedly call now, my HOLY GRAIL of SPFs! ... I'm a makeup wearer, & throughout my teens & up to my mid twenties now I'm embarrassed to say that I wouldn't touch SPF because of the way it made my skin feel & foundation look; thick, greasy, pore clogging & just asking for comedonal acne! It's not like I was going around finding the thickest, cheapest SPFs, No. I'd search high & low from some of the most popular skincare brands & even tried to go for something with only SPF 15, thinking they wouldn't be so heavy. EVERYTHING was heavy so I never wore SPF under foundation ever. I tried two samples from Paula's Choice; Resist Super-Light Daily Wrinkle Defense SPF 30 & Paula's Choice Resist Youth-Extending Daily Mattifying Fluid SPF 50. I love them. I cannot believe there are no SPFs like this on the market. Paula's managed to somehow create SPFs that are so lightweight, non greasy, perfect for sensitive skin & work AMAZINGLY under any foundation! If this isn't enough, the tint in the Resist Super-Light Daily Wrinkle Defense SPF 30 actually evens out my complexion/hyperpigmentation & I could actually pull off not going outside without a foundation on! I have very fair skin {'creme' in Laura Mercier's Flawless Finish / the lightest in foundations} so actually, it does work for light skin, no matter how pale you are! I've ordered the full size Paula's Choice Resist Youth-Extending Daily Mattifying Fluid SPF 50 only because it has SPF 50 & I want the most SPF I can get, BUT I'm going to have to order this one too, specially for those days where I don't intend on being outside as much, & don't feel like wearing foundation {that tint! <3}

I generally don't like many sunscreens. So many ball up. However, using the PC with the tint, I just add some blush, lipstick and go! It's a great quick finished look when you're time starved getting to the office. My only concern is what to do if you want to take a 30 min. walk at lunch? I don't pack this with me, makeup products add up and get heavy. Otherwise, a delightful product that I'll probably purchase again - price is reasonable. I don't agree it would be overpriced at $27.

Love this product!

About Me Budget Buyer
Comments about Paula's Choice Skincare Resist Super-Light Daily Wrinkle Defense SPF 30:
When this product first came out, I was drawn to it being light weight. Although I probably have normal to dry skin, I needed a moisturizer that was not as heavy in the summer. And I liked how it was tinted as well. During the summer or warmer weather, I apply this moisturizer then the Paula's Choice tinted sheer moisturizer on top to add extra protection around the eyes area and to even out some patches of skin. I love how this product feels on the face, not heavy and very light!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Perfect for my nose!
By Pianojodi
from Tulsa, OK
I only use this on my normal to oily nose. I didn't use any kind of moisturizer on it for years because the rest of my face is slightly dry, and my moisturizers would add shine and greasiness to my nose. I ordered this to use on my entire face because I never considered keeping one moisturizer for only my nose and another for the rest of my face. This was not suitable for my drier areas. So now I use this only on my nose because it needs SPF too. This goes on smooth and creamy, absorbs right in, and mattifies beautifully throughout the day. My nose looks better with this on.
By JonesgirlR
from NC
I really love this product and compare the performance of other "mattifying" primers to this moisturizer. I recommend this highly to others as a lady of diverse racial blending with oily skin and on the lighter side hard to match skin tone that is hard to match. More surprisingly is the low oxidation of foundation applied over this moisturizer. BRAVO!!

AMAZING(!!!) but pricey for the size. :(
By Kay Marie

I am a brand yet a budget buyer... if that even makes sense. There are certain brands that I feel like I trust but since discovering the beautypedia I've been expanding my options. This is an amazing sunscreen. I have combination sensitive skin. I am not super oily but do get oil in my t-zone especially living in a humid climate. This sunscreen is an excellent makeup primer and better than my Smashbox! It's also better than any other sunscreen I've ever used. I always alternate products and have been experimenting with expensive and cheaper products. The product I was using before this was Eucerin SPF30 in the summer and my makeup often kinda melted off and my t-zone got oily faster. The Eucerin is ok now that it's cooler out but the PC is absolutely amazing and I no longer get a greasy face later in the day! I MIGHT touch up once if go outside and it's a humid day. In the south, ya never know what this weather is going to be like. I am also using Paula's Choice Mens skin care line at night and I have seen a huge overal improvement since using PC products and recommendations! I use Purpose facewash and Clinique Mild Clarifying lotion as my toner/bha when I was previously using no toner. My skin is almost the best it's ever been as far as texture wise and even complexion...but the only weird thing is that the pores on my nose seem permanently clogged (skin colored and protruding, not black) and I keep getting a random pimple which I haven't had in years. Which product could be causing this? The foundations I use are either Nars Sheer Glow, Estée Lauder Double Wear and Tarte foundation spf15.

Satin finish - really lovely
By Anonymous
from undisclosed
The tint provides a enough coverage to get by without foundation for those who count their morning minutes! Two questions: 1. Is there an estimate on the water resistance of this product? I don't expect it to perform as a beach spf, but I do live in a very humid climate where just walking outside can cause perspiration. 2. Assuming dry conditions, is reapplication necessary for both mineral and chemical sunscreens? I mean, for a physical spf, shouldn't it still be "working" even after 2 hours?
Beautypedia Team Response:Hello there! Thanks for your feedback! If you e-mail the Paula's Choice Customer Service team directly, they'll be happy to answer those specific questions for you! Here is their e-mail address: email@example.com. Have a fabulous day! =)

Awesome on Oily Skin!
By Rachel D.
I'm 45, use retinol 3x a week and found this product after doing a "summer of SPF". I literally have tried a dozen or so SPFs this year to find a true Holy Grail. THIS IS THE PRODUCT! Not only does this one go on flawlessly with no balling up, it dries to a matte finish and actually does a beyond decent job of controlling oil after hours of wear. The tint seems to work pretty well on my face, but could be a problem if you have very dark or light skin (I'm light/medium).
Beyond satisfied
By Annie
There aren't enough words to express how ecstatic I am to FINALLY have found the perfect sunscreen/moisturizer. I am 51 with normal to oily skin and use Retin A and a vitamin C serum, making my skin extra sensitive to sun exposure. Also, I am prone to breakouts. This product works great as a primer, keeps my face from looking too shiny, and stays put (no slipping or balling up when other products are applied on top).I will never be without. Please NEVER discontinue!!! :D

Beautypedia Team Response:Hey there! Thank you for your feedback! Sunscreen actives break down in response to direct exposure to daylight, not by the passage of time. So, on an average day, your morning application of sunscreen is still going to provide some UV protection on your way home as long as you both applied a sufficient amount in the morning and have a job where you are indoors and out of sun for the majority of the day. If you sit near a window that lets sun on your skin, check with your building manager to see if the windows were treated with UVA/UVB filters (many are now a days), as even light passing through a non-protected window can, unfortunately, make you have to apply more often. If you ARE exposed to the outdoors or a lot of light, we do recommend reapplying every 2 hours. I hope this helps!
Resist Super-Light Daily Wrinkle Defense SPF 30 is a daytime moisturizer with sunscreen designed for combination to oily skin with signs of aging. Its multi-purpose formula not only protects skin from sun damage, but also fortifies it with potent antioxidants to repair and stimulate collagen production for firmer skin. You will see a more even skin color, fewer visible lines and wrinkles, and the return of a younger healthy-looking glow.
This gentle, mineral-based formula has a sheer tint that works beautifully for all skin tones, whether worn alone or under foundation. An amazingly silky lotion texture leaves a soft matte finish that perfectly preps skin, allowing makeup to apply smoothly and evenly (no primer needed).
Pure, refined zinc oxide provides remarkable broad-spectrum protection without making skin more oily or triggering breakouts. It is perfect for sensitive skin or rosacea and great for use around the eye area. Daily sun protection is crucial for preventing wrinkles and brown spots, while still allowing skin to look fresh, even, and healthy.

The sinkhole that opened near the corner of Third Avenue and 92nd Street more than six weeks ago is a stench-filled pit, say outraged neighbors who claim they're constantly choking on noxious sewer gas and the dust kicked up by construction crews trying to figure out what caused the 70-foot-deep burrow to open.
City Department of Environmental Protection Deputy Commissioner Jim Roberts told residents on Thursday that the cave in formed on June 28, which many believe was caused by a broken sewer line, won't be repaired and filled in for another three months — drawing the ire of 92nd Street residents who say the sinkhole is ruining their street.
"You don't live there. You don't know what it's like," said Marianne Casey, who claims she can't escape the gas seeping from the hole and dust from the construction. Construction equipment used to repair the hole, which is only a few feet wide, has also taken up several parking spots, she said.
Other Bay Ridge residents feared the sewer gas could be affect their health.
"It's so bad, it stings," said Lauren Grant, who claims that she can smell the fumes from three blocks away. "I have to wash my eyes out in the shower as soon as I get home in the afternoon."
Merchants near the sinkhole say they've lost business ever since it formed.
"It's a disaster," said Frank Buono, who co-owns the Artisan Food Valley on Third Avenue near 92nd Street. Buono said that he and his partner Danny Accardo are losing customers to noise and odors.
Buono's partner said construction crews should be working around the clock to fill the hole in so everything can return to normal.
"It's just a major weight on our shoulders," said Accardo, who said his store can't receive deliveries because construction vehicles are hogging up all the spots. "They've got to kick it up to working 24 hours a day and just get it done."
Roberts said his agency would try to get the smell and dust under control, but said site conditions doesn't allow for round-the-clock operations — though he said he was open to increasing the number of shifts working on the repair project.
"I ask my staff every day how we can make this go quicker, and how we can maybe get more people on it," Roberts said.
The 92nd Street sinkhole isn't the only pit to form in Bay Ridge in recent weeks. Two weeks ago a section of 79th Street between Fourth and Fifth avenues caved in and nearly swallowed a car. Civic leaders said that more than a half-dozen sinkholes and depressions have formed in the neighborhood in recent months.

WASHINGTON (April 19, 2013)--Veterans who've been waiting for more than a year for decisions on their disability claims are moving to the front of the line, under a new program the Veterans Administration announced Friday in response to criticism about the soaring number of claims that have been pending for longer than 125 days.
The VA couldn't say how many veterans were waiting more than a year for a decision, but VA records show it took 262 days on average to resolve a claim in the past fiscal year.
VA Undersecretary Allison Hickey says provisional decisions will be made in coming months on the oldest claims.
Veterans whose claims are granted would get compensation immediately while those whose claims are denied would have a year to submit more information.

Company: California Star Productions
Cast: Celestia Star, Johnny Cobalt
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Specialty
How exactly Celestia Star and Johnny Cobalt come to meet is a bit confusing. The video suggests they use a dating service of some sort, although the box text describes it as a "blind date." Either way, the couple has a unique set of compatible interests, so they eschew dinner and drinks in order to get straight to the bondage and tickling.
Cobalt's enjoyment of tickling seems nicely matched with Star's, and their play begins sweet and light, growing more intense - although never genuinely sadistic - as they explore increasingly restrictive and vulnerable forms of bondage. Cobalt employs his fingers, a feather duster and a single feather, in addition to ropes, poles and spreader bars. Gosh, it's so romantic.

Total Time
Prep 30 mins
Cook 20 mins
There are a few recipes out there for these, but I don't really like bleu cheese, so this recipe uses cream cheese. A nice combination of hot and cool flavors!! You can even used leftover chicken or rotisserie chicken.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 chicken breasts, cooked and chopped
- 1⁄4 cup buffalo-style hot sauce (or up to 1/2 cup)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon chopped garlic
- 1⁄4 cup cream cheese
- 24 wonton wrappers
- oil (for frying, peanut suggested)
- Mix the chicken with the hot sauce and garlic.
- Mix in the cream cheese until smooth.
- NOTE: all amounts are suggested; feel free to adjust to your personal preference.
- Put about a tsp into the center of a wonton, seal edges using a little water. Keep covered until all wontons are done.
- Heat oil to about 325º.
- Fry wontons, a few at a time, until lightly brown and crisp.
- Serve with bleu cheese or ranch salad dressing for dipping.
- NOTE: The filling can be made the day ahead and refrigerated, and the flavor intensifies.
Most Helpful
These are very yummy. I changed it a bit though. I made my filling up ahead. then I took he wonton wrappers and pressing each one in a mini muffin pan. baked them about 7 min. then when I was ready to heat them I put a good spoonful in each wonton and baked them till they were hot. this is a favorite of ours and is requested freqently, besides football season.
Served with buttermilk ranch. Perfecto!
These are sooo tasty! Everyone that I have let try them is totally in love. They are the perfect blend of spicy and creamy. I could eat a million of them.

Roles Are Set, as Are the Perils
Obama at Risk Of Arrogant Tag, McCain, Negative
AURORA, Colo. -- Presidential rivals Barack Obama and John McCain both appear to be seizing the roles in which they have been cast: Sen. Obama as front-runner and Sen. McCain as underdog. The approach carries perils for both men.
Democratic Sen. Obama, who has taken to openly musing about the likelihood that he will be elected, risks coming off as arrogant and presumptuous. His Republican rival, who proclaims himself to be running behind at every stop and relentlessly attacks his opponent, risks coming off as negative and whiny.
The McCain campaign is pushing the perception of an arrogant Obama with a new television advertisement in 11 battleground states that paints the Illinois senator as a celebrity, not a leader. It opens with images of Sen. Obama speaking to 200,000 people in Berlin and then flashes photos of celebrities Britney Spears and Paris Hilton.
"He's the biggest celebrity in the world. But is he ready to lead?" a female announcer asks in a breathy voice.
The McCain campaign spent much of last week mocking and complaining about Sen. Obama's trip to the Middle East and Europe. Their new tactic is to try to turn one of Sen. Obama's strengths -- his ability to attract large crowds and publicity -- into a weakness.
Asked about the new McCain ad on a campaign stop at Bell's Diner in Lebanon, Mo., Wednesday, Sen. Obama said: "I don't pay attention to John McCain's ads -- although I do notice that he doesn't seem to have anything to say very positive about himself. He seems to only be talking about me."
- Top advisers to McCain and Obama debate energy and environmental issues with a Journal moderator. Join the discussion.
For his part, Sen. McCain appears to play up the idea that he is running behind.
"I'm the underdog in this campaign. I'm the underdog. Have no doubt about it," he told supporters at a Nevada fund-raiser on Tuesday on Lake Tahoe. "That's a place I enjoy because that invigorates me, it makes me campaign harder, it energizes our supporters and our friends."
Sen. McCain enjoys the underdog role, and arguably is at his strongest when he's behind. He ran as the underdog in the GOP primary almost until the end.
Analysts said the danger to Sen. McCain's approach, such as with his new ad, is it can be seen as whining about Sen. Obama's successes rather than promoting Sen. McCain's own. And it remains unclear if it will stoke voter concerns about Sen. Obama or reinforce his front-runner status.
Sen. McCain has dialed up his hits on Sen. Obama on topics from Iraq to oil drilling to taxes. At the same time, the candidate is talking about his own past as a prisoner of war in Vietnam, recounting how he declined early release because to do so would have violated the military's honor code.
"Ever since then, I've always had the great honor of putting my country first," he said on Wednesday at a town-hall meeting in Aurora, outside Denver.
On Wednesday, Sen. Obama was in Springfield, Mo., where he held his own town-hall meeting, focused on the economy, followed by a bus tour of predominantly white Republican strongholds in the state. Both candidates are trying to win over independent voters while solidifying those in their own parties, as the fight for battleground states intensifies.
- See a video gallery of TV ads run by McCain, Obama and outside groups, along with commentary and transcripts.
During the Democratic primaries, Sen. Obama called himself the underdog, too. He used Sen. Hillary Clinton's aura of inevitability early on as a way to motivate his supporters.
But now that he is the presumptive Democratic nominee and is leading Sen. McCain in most recent polls -- though some show a slippage in his lead -- Sen. Obama has embraced his front-runner status.
At a fund-raiser in Arlington, Va., Monday night, Sen. Obama told a small group of donors that "the odds of us winning are very good."
In an interview with "CBS News," he said he wanted to meet with foreign leaders whom "I expect to be dealing with over the next eight to 10 years."
This week, Sen. Obama told House Democrats that he had become a symbol for the world's hopes for America, a comment Republicans seized on.
"Only a celebrity of Barack Obama's magnitude could attract 200,000 fans in Berlin who gathered from the mere opportunity to be in his presence. These are not supporters or even voters, but fans fawning over The One," McCain campaign manager Rick Davis said in a memo Wednesday.
Sen. Obama's chief message strategist, Robert Gibbs, said, "There's a fine line between being confident and arrogant. We haven't been on the national scene for a long time so Barack Obama has to convince people he can do the job."
Sen. Obama plans an annual weeklong vacation to visit his grandmother in his home state of Hawaii in August, a move that could add to the perception that he is overconfident.
Republican strategist Glen Bolger said candidates must tread carefully to look presidential without coming off as presumptuous. "His campaign has made the strategic decision that they have to make voters believe the candidate has already won," Mr. Bolger said. "The risk in that is that there is a fair amount of hubris."
Some voters said they have been turned off recently by Sen. Obama's approach. "He's acting like he already won," said Michael Howell, 48 years old, a radio-station representative in Atlanta. He said he doesn't like either candidate and doesn't plan to vote.
Others shrug off the Obama-celebrity image that the McCain ad is pushing. Robert Fisher, 56, a high-school teacher from Philadelphia passing through Kansas City, Mo., said he would hate to think that such an ad would be effective. He leans toward Sen. Obama and doesn't see him as arrogant. "I think he's a regular guy," he said.

Evidence indicates that the immune system, which protects an organism from parasitic and pathogenic infections, is frequently suppressed when animals are engaged in activities involving strenuous exercise. We tested the hypothesis that birds reduce immune function during the migratory period in preparation for the anticipated heightened energetic demands of long flights. Swainson's thrushes (Catharus ustulatus), captured in fall, were held in an indoor aviary until January, when migratory disposition was induced in half of the birds with an artificially prolonged daylength. Experimental birds became hyperphagic and deposited fat stores, and then displayed nocturnal activity (Zugunruhe) characteristic of the spring migratory period. Cell-mediated immunity was measured by intradermal injection of phytohemagglutinin in the wing patagium of both control and experimental birds. Birds exhibiting migratory restlessness had a reduced cell-mediated immune response compared to control birds. Our results suggest that birds are immunosuppressed during the migratory period. The suppression may be a nonadaptive response due to unrelated physiological processes, or it may be an adaptive response to the physiological demands associated with migration, such as high energetic demands and the negative consequences of a hyperactive immune system.

MSNBC Panel Says GOP Congressman's "Disgusting" Suggestion That Only US And Europe Contributed To Civilization "Manifest[s]" Itself "Into Trump's Policy"
Video ››› ››› MEDIA MATTERS STAFF

Over the course of the 2016 presidential primary, presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has laid forth a series of problematic policy proposals and statements -- ranging from his plan to ban Muslims from entering the United States to his suggestion that the United States default on debt -- that media have warned to be "dangerous," "fact-free," "unconstitutional," "contradictory," "racist," and "xenophobic." Media Matters compiled an extensive list of Trump's widely panned policy plans thus far along with the debunks and criticism from media figures, experts and fact-checkers that go along with them.
Loading the player reg...
Amid widespread condemnation of Donald Trump from his fellow Republican presidential candidates following his attack on Sen. John McCain's military service, media are highlighting Republicans' collective failure to denounce Trump's past bigotry and xenophobia.
Media outlets have argued that Indiana's new Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) mirrors RFRAs passed in other states as well as the federal RFRA signed into law in 1993 by then-President Bill Clinton. In fact, Indiana's RFRA is broader than other versions of the law, and experts say it could allow private businesses to discriminate against LGBT customers on the basis of religion.
Even for a Republican White House that was badly stumbling through George W. Bush's sixth year in office, the revelation on April 12, 2007 was shocking. Responding to congressional demands for emails in connection with its investigation into the partisan firing of eight U.S. attorneys, the White House announced that as many as five million emails, covering a two-year span, had been lost.
The emails had been run through private accounts controlled by the Republican National Committee and were only supposed to be used for dealing with non-administration political campaign work to avoid violating ethics laws. Yet congressional investigators already had evidence private emails had been used for government business, including to discuss the firing of one of the U.S. attorneys. The RNC accounts were used by 22 White House staffers, including then-Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove, who reportedly used his RNC email for 95 percent of his communications.
As the Washington Post reported, "Under federal law, the White House is required to maintain records, including e-mails, involving presidential decision- making and deliberations." But suddenly millions of the private RNC emails had gone missing; emails that were seen as potentially crucial evidence by Congressional investigators.
The White House email story broke on a Wednesday. Yet on that Sunday's Meet The Press, Face The Nation, and Fox News Sunday, the topic of millions of missing White House emails did not come up. At all. (The story did get covered on ABC's This Week.)
By comparison, not only did every network Sunday news show this week cover the story about former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton emails, but they were drowning in commentary. Between Meet the Press, Face The Nation, This Week, and Fox News Sunday, Clinton's "email" or "emails" were referenced more than 100 times on the programs, according to Nexis transcripts. Talk about saturation coverage.
Indeed, the commentary for the last week truly has been relentless, with the Beltway press barely pausing to catch its breath before unloading yet another round of "analysis," most of which provides little insight but does allow journalists to vent about the Clintons.
What has become clear over the last eight days however is that the Clinton email story isn't about lawbreaking. "Experts have said it doesn't appear Clinton violated federal laws," CNN conceded. "But that hasn't stemmed the issue that has become more about bad optics and politics than any actual wrongdoing." The National Law Journal agreed, noting that while the story has created a political furor, "any legal consequences are likely to prove negligible."
Still, the scandal machine churns on determined to the treat the story as a political blockbuster, even though early polling indicates the kerfuffle will not damage Clinton's standing.
Looking back, it's curious how the D.C. scandal machine could barely get out of first gear when the Bush email story broke in 2007. I'm not suggesting the press ignored the Rove email debacle, because the story was clearly covered at the time. But triggering a firestorm (a guttural roar) that raged for days and consumed the Beltway chattering class the way the D.C. media has become obsessed with the Clinton email story? Absolutely not. Not even close.
After spending much of the last two weeks criticizing Hillary Clinton for supposed "gaffes" about her wealth and claiming she's increasingly out of touch with voters thanks to the combined earnings of herself and her husband, Beltway pundits are confronted with a new poll that shows that despite days worth of media attacks on Clinton's money comments, a clear majority think the former secretary of state relates to "average Americans" and the problems they face.
The findings from an NBC/Wall Street Journal survey forcefully debunk the punditry's conventional wisdom that by being "rusty" while discussing her wealth during her recent book tour, Clinton inflicted potentially deep damage to her possible presidential run by being so "out of touch."
The recent wealth coverage continued the Beltway press' long tradition of parsing portions of Clinton comments taken from hours worth of long-form interviews and spinning then in the most unappealing way, and by claiming Clinton's word choice and "tone" is all wrong. (CNN even altered a Hillary quote about money last week to make it more incriminating and newsworthy.)
To date though, voters don't seem to mind when Hillary Clinton talks about money.
Nonetheless as the Washington Post's Dan Balz noted, Clinton's "comments about being "dead broke" upon leaving the White House and not being among the "truly well off" today have triggered an avalanche of coverage raising questions about whether she has lost touch with the lives of ordinary Americans."
Just yesterday, Balz's colleague Ruth Marcus detailed what she called "Hillary Clinton's money woes," and warned the former first lady that the problem might get "worse" because she risks being viewed by voters as "greedy," "defensive," "whiny," and "out of touch."
How was Marcus so sure that voters would deeply resent the Clintons' wealth if Hillary ran for president? Or specifically, that they'd resent how she talked about her wealth. Did Marcus cite polling? Did she interview voters? No, she just knew. Or she thought she knew.
According to the new NBC/WSJ poll, none of Marcus' characterizations are accurate.
And that's why the red flag of the wealth coverage was always the question of whether voters were as deeply offended by Clinton's wealth as the Beltway press is. (MSNBC's Chuck Todd recently dismissed the Clintons' earnings from giving speeches by insisting, "It's not like they have acquired their wealth from hard work.")
Washington Post columnist George Will dedicated his most recent column to bashing citizens uncomfortable with forced participation in Christian prayer before they can petition town officials, characterizing both the Jewish and atheist plaintiff in the Supreme Court's recent decision on the constitutionality of state-sponsored prayer as "flimsy people" with "thin skins."
The suit, Town of Greece v. Galloway, was filed by two residents of Greece -- a small town in upstate New York -- who objected to their town officials' decade-long practice of inviting almost exclusively Christian clergy to deliver at times extremely sectarian prayers before the start of town meetings. On May 6, the Supreme Court's conservative justices held that the Christian prayer regularly invoked at town meetings before residents could engage their local officials in town business did not violate the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. In the majority's view, the prayers were appropriate because "although most of the prayer givers were Christian, this fact reflected only the predominantly Christian identity of the town's congregations." In their dissent, the liberal justices noted that although "legislative prayers" have been held to be a ceremonial exception to the First Amendment's prohibition on the establishment of religion, the Town of Greece crossed the constitutional line by embedding Christian prayers as the bar citizens must cross before they can engage their representatives.
In his Washington Post column, Will celebrated the majority's reinterpretation of what constitutes permissible "legislative prayers." He also took the opportunity to gratuitously slam the "prickly plaintiffs" for bringing the case at all, falsely pretending the concerns of religious minorities are the same as those of "militantly aggravated secularists."
From Will's May 7 column (emphasis added):
Three decades have passed since the court last ruled on the matter of prayers during government meetings. In 1983, the court held:
"The opening of sessions of legislative and other deliberative public bodies with prayer is deeply embedded in the history and tradition of this country. From colonial times through the founding of the Republic and ever since, the practice of legislative prayer has coexisted with the principles of disestablishment and religious freedom."
Since then, however, many Americans have become more irritable and litigious and less neighborly. Also, there are many more nonbelievers. And the court has made establishment-clause jurisprudence more labyrinthine with nuances such as the "endorsement test": What government behavior touching religion would a reasonable observer see as endorsing -- or disapproving -- a particular religion or religiosity generally?
The majority held that ceremonial prayer -- an encouragement to gravity and sobriety -- is not harmful to the plaintiffs, who felt somehow coerced when present at public prayers, and who said such prayers are necessarily divisive. The court should have told them: If you feel coerced, you are flimsy people, and it is a choice -- an unattractive one -- to feel divided from your neighbors by their affection for brief and mild occasional expressions of religiosity.
Taking offense has become America's national pastime; being theatrically offended supposedly signifies the exquisitely refined moral delicacy of people who feel entitled to pass through life without encountering ideas or practices that annoy them. As the number of nonbelievers grows -- about 20 percent of Americans are religiously unaffiliated, as are one-third of adults under the age of 30 -- so does the itch to litigate believers into submission to secular sensibilities.
Washington Post columnist Ruth Marcus took Mary Cheney to task for challenging her sister Liz's opposition to marriage equality, arguing that - even though it's wrong to deny gays and lesbians the right to marry - Mary Cheney and her wife Heather Poe should have stayed silent instead of "[g]oing nuclear on Facebook."
In her November 20 column, Marcus echoed right-wing pundits who are casting Mary Cheney as the villain in the family feud, accusing Mary of unfairly jeopardizing Liz's chances of being elected to the U.S. Senate by deigning to say how she feels about having a sister who opposes her right to marry:
In the matter of the Cheney Family Feud: Something in me balks at leaping on the let's-all-bash-Liz bandwagon.
Sure, it would be fun. For one thing, she's wrong about same-sex marriage. As her sister, Mary, now famously posted on Facebook after her big sis re-proclaimed her opposition on "Fox News Sunday": "Liz -- this isn't just an issue on which we disagree -- you're just wrong -- and on the wrong side of history."
Then there is the unfortunate matter of waging this family war in public. It's easy to imagine how infuriating it felt for Mary and her wife, Heather Poe, to be sitting at home watching Liz spout off on Fox News. The urge to fight back obviously was irresistible.
But taking matters further public? Going nuclear on Facebook? Heather's post painted her sister-in-law as a political carpetbagger who shifted positions along with states:
"I can't help but wonder how Liz would feel if, as she moved from state to state, she discovered that her family was protected in one but not the other," Heather wrote in a post Mary shared.
Look, I would have been tempted to post, too. I would have been tempted to tweet. Then I would have thought better of it -- or, more likely, my spouse would have told me to step away from the keyboard. That's what Heather should have done for Mary. Instead, Mary reposted Heather's incendiary message.
Like a number of right-wing pundits before her, Marcus argues Mary is to blame for the public Cheney family feud. Liz, who chose to run for public office and make her anti-equality position known, apparently bears no responsibility for putting her gay sister and her family in the spotlight.
The reality is that while gay and lesbian couples are able to marry in 15 states and the District of Columbia, they're second-class citizens in the rest of the country. Pointing out that Liz's position relegates millions of gays and lesbians to second-class status isn't "incendiary" - it's basic truth-telling.
To be fair, Marcus criticizes Liz Cheney's claim that she has always been "compassionate towards" Mary and her family, but she concludes by suggesting that Mary's family may have read too much into Liz's previous warmth. Perhaps, Marcus offered, Liz Cheney was just "being polite":
And [Heather Poe posted], "when Mary and I got married in 2012 -- she [Liz] didn't hesitate to tell us how happy she was for us. To have her now say she doesn't support our right to marry is offensive to say the least." But maybe Liz was merely being polite at the time. To say she's happy for the married couple is not the same as saying she embraces their marriage.
It's easy for Marcus - who's never had her right to marry put up to a referendum or become a political wedge issue - to call for restraint. But Mary and Liz aren't having a minor political disagreement. Liz's opposition to marriage equality has a direct impact on the livelihood and well-being of her gay sister. For gay and lesbian couples - whose freedom to marry isn't uniformly enjoyed and whose legal protections have come only after years of hard-fought struggle - keeping quiet just isn't that simple.
Washington Post columnist Ruth Marcus writes:
Blogging is about speed: the early post catches the Google. It is about linking, which may sound like creating a community and encouraging diversity of views but which too often deteriorates into a closed circle of reinforced preconceptions. It is about provocation. Shrillness sells. Even-handedness goes unclicked. Once the people in my business spent time checking and rechecking facts and first impressions. Opinion writers mulled things over. In the world of the blogosphere, mistakes can always be crossed through and corrected; seat-of-the-pants reactions refined.
Except: Shirley Sherrod.
I am being unfair, in part, by singling out the blgosphere. The Sherrod story originated there, but the sins of Andrew Breitbart were aided and abetted by bloggers' co-conspirators on cable news. And, of course, in the Obama administration.
And, of course (though Marcus never so much as hints at it): The Washington Post.
The Post's first Sherrod article was absolutely horrible. And it came long after many of those shrill bloggers Marcus criticizes had gotten the story right. It must feel good for legacy media to wag their fingers at irresponsible bloggers -- but they'd do far more good by calling out their peers.
Another Post columnist, E.J. Dionne, did just that today:
[T]he Obama team was reacting to a reality: the bludgeoning of mainstream journalism into looking timorously over its right shoulder and believing that "balance" demands taking seriously whatever sludge the far right is pumping into the political waters.
This goes way back. Al Gore never actually said he "invented the Internet," but you could be forgiven for not knowing this because the mainstream media kept reporting he had.
There were no "death panels" in the Democratic health-care bills. But this false charge got so much coverage that an NBC News-Wall Street Journal poll last August found that 45 percent of Americans thought the reform proposals would likely allow "the government to make decisions about when to stop providing medical care to the elderly." ...
The traditional media are so petrified of being called "liberal" that they are prepared to allow the Breitbarts of the world to become their assignment editors. Mainstream journalists regularly criticize themselves for not jumping fast enough or high enough when the Fox crowd demands coverage of one of their attack lines.
Thus did Post ombudsman Andrew Alexander ask this month why the paper had been slow to report on "the Justice Department's decision to scale down a voter-intimidation case against members of the New Black Panther Party." Never mind that this is a story about a tiny group of crackpots who stopped no one from voting. It was aimed at doing what the doctored video Breitbart posted set out to do: convince Americans that the Obama administration favors blacks over whites.
This is racially inflammatory, politically motivated nonsense -- and it's nonsense even if Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh talk about it a thousand times a day. When an outlandish charge for which there is no evidence is treated as an on-the-one-hand-and-on-the-other-hand issue, the liars win.
The Sherrod case should be the end of the line. If Obama hates the current media climate, he should stop overreacting to it. And the mainstream media should stop being afraid of insisting on the difference between news and propaganda.
Washington Post to liberals: Get Lost
WaPo, Ombudsman ignore right-wing race-baiting
Is there a phony right-wing attack WaPo's Ombudsman won't promote?
From Marcus' April 14 Washington Post column, "Vilifying Tom Coburn for a moment of civility":
Coburn went on: "What we have to have is make sure we have a debate in this country so that you can see what's going on and make a determination yourself. So don't catch yourself being biased by Fox News that somebody is no good. The people in Washington are good. They just don't know what they don't know."
The howling was swift.
Rush Limbaugh: "Well, who cares if she's nice? . . . Al Capone was a nice guy. Hitler had friends, for crying out loud. . . . So Coburn says, 'There's no intention of putting anybody in jail.' No, no, no. . . . Somebody tell Tom Coburn she was specifically asked about possible jail time, and she said 'the legislation is very fair in this respect.' " Glenn Beck: "The Republican that I'm supposed to defend because he's so unlike Nancy Pelosi was defending Nancy Pelosi."
Mark Levin, who manages to make Limbaugh and Beck sound like calm voices of reason: "We don't need you hack, detestable politicians telling us a damn thing. Most of you are a bunch of pathetic, unethical morons. And so, no, Mr. Coburn, we won't be told to sit down and be quiet. We won't be told by you to watch CNN to balance off Fox. You got that, pal? Who the hell do you think you are? You sound like a jerk, to be perfectly honest about it. You, the jerk, who backed John McCain."
GOP senator calls out Fox News for bias and misinformation
Beck in disbelief that "great Republican hope" Coburn would defend Nancy Pelosi
O'Reilly to Coburn: "Maybe we deserve" criticism for Fox's treatment of Pelosi
O'Reilly's whopper: "Nobody" on Fox said failing to buy health insurance could result in jail time
In my column last week about media coverage of health care reform and abortion, I pointed out some flaws with arguments by Chris Matthews and others that money is fungible, so any government funds that go to any insurance company that also provides abortion coverage constitutes federal funding for abortion.
In today's Washington Post, Ruth Marcus makes an excellent point I wish I'd thought of:
The same folks who squawk about money being fungible when it comes to federal funding and abortion take the opposite view when it comes to federal funding and parochial schools, or federal funding and faith-based programs.
When the Catholic Church takes government money to run homeless shelters or soup kitchens, it frees up dollars for other, religious expenses that wouldn't be a permissible use of government funds. Somehow, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, which pushed the Stupak amendment, isn't bothered by this reality.
When the government gives low-income families tuition vouchers to use at parochial schools, or sends educational material and equipment to parochial schools, the bishops aren't worried about whether that money is being commingled to subsidize religion.
"The simple fact that broad governmental social programs may have some effect of aiding religious institutions . . . cannot be cause for invalidating a program on Establishment Clause grounds," the bishops argued in one case before the Supreme Court.
Last week, Matthews insisted:
Everybody knows that money's fungible and that this is basically an accounting trick. And I don't think it'll work with people who have a moral problem with abortion funding by the federal government.
For some reason, I doubt he'll address Marcus' point on his show tonight.
From Ruth Marcus' November 11 column, "Health scare tactics":
I'm hoping, for your sake, that you didn't spend your Saturday night as I did: watching the House debate health-care reform on C-SPAN.
Pathetic, I know. The outcome wasn't in doubt, and the arguments were as familiar as an old pair of slippers. Moral imperative! Government takeover! Long-overdue protections! Crippling mandates!
The falsehood-peddling began at the top, with Minority Leader John Boehner:
"If you're a Medicare Advantage enrollee . . . the Congressional Budget Office says that 80 percent of them are going to lose their Medicare Advantage."
Not true. The CBO hasn't said anything of the sort. Boehner's office acknowledges that he misspoke: He meant to cite a study from the Medicare actuary estimating that projected enrollment would be down by 64 percent -- if the cuts took effect. Choosing not to enroll in Medicare Advantage is different from "losing" it.
But Boehner wasn't alone.
Kentucky Republican Brett Guthrie: "The bill raises taxes for just about everyone."
Not true. The bill imposes a surtax on the top 0.3 percent of households, individuals making more than $500,000 a year and couples making more than $1 million.
Georgia Republican Tom Price: "This bill, on Page 733, empowers the Washington bureaucracy to deny lifesaving patient care if it costs too much."
Not true. The bill sets up a Center for Comparative Effectiveness Research "in order to identify the manner in which diseases, disorders, and other health conditions can most effectively and appropriately be prevented, diagnosed, treated, and managed clinically."
Are Republicans against figuring out what works? There's nothing in there about cost, and certainly nothing about denying "lifesaving patient care."
Price, again: "This bill, on Page 94, will make it illegal for any American to obtain health care not approved by Washington."
Not true. The vast majority of Americans get their insurance through their employers. The bill envisions setting minimum federal standards for such insurance, in part to determine who is eligible to buy coverage through the newly created insurance exchanges. This is hardly tantamount to making it "illegal" to obtain "health care" without Washington's approval.
Michigan Republican Dave Camp: "Americans could face five years in jail if they don't comply with the bill's demands to buy approved health insurance."
Not true. The bill requires people to obtain insurance or, with some hardshipexceptions, pay a fine. No one is being jailed for being uninsured. People who intentionally evade paying the fine could, in theory, be prosecuted -- just like others who cheat on their taxes.
California Republican Buck McKeon: "I offered two amendments to try to improve this bill -- one to require members of Congress to enroll in the public option like we're going to require all of you to do."
Not true. No one is required to enroll in the public option. In fact, most people won't even be eligible to enroll in the public option or other plans available through the exchanges.
Florida Republican Ginny Brown-Waite: "The president's own economic advisers have said that this bill will kill 5.5 million jobs."
Not true. Christina Romer, chair of the Council of Economic Advisers, has estimated that the bill would increase economic growth and add jobs. Republicans misuse Romer's previous economic research on the impact of tax increases to produce the phony 5.5 million number.
You have to wonder: Are the Republican arguments against the bill so weak that they have to resort to these misrepresentations and distortions?
The Washington Post's Ruth Marcus responds to some criticism of her complaints about the Obama administration's "'dumb' war with Fox News":
My observations about the Obama administration's "dumb" war with Fox News seem to have touched a nerve -- 868 nerves, going by the latest tally of comments. They ran the gamut from "another idiotic column" to "Amen, Ruth." I confess, I didn't read them all, but I got the drift. Meanwhile, the 869th nerve belonged to my lefty friend Chuck, who emailed, complete with links to angry liberal bloggers, to bemoan my "false equivalency" between Fox News and MSNBC.
One of my sentences provoked particular derision from the left. "Imagine the outcry if the Bush administration had pulled a similar hissy fit with MSNBC," I wrote. I confess to having forgotten about the Bush administration's public tangle last year with MSNBC.
For the record, Chuck, I don't think that Fox and MSNBC are equivalent. Fox is more over the line, more often.
While Marcus brought up the criticism she received for drawing a "false equivalency" between Fox News and MSNBC, she didn't actually respond to it. She did acknowledge at the end that MSNBC isn't as bad as Fox News, but she still suggests MSNBC is a liberal cable channel. That follows her original post, in which Marcus wrote:
Certainly Fox tends to report its news with a conservative slant -- but has anyone at the White House clicked over to MSNBC recently? Or is the only problem opinion journalism that doesn't match its opinion?
Marcus didn't address that line in her second post, but it's as silly as her false suggestion that the Bush administration never pulled a "hissy fit with MSNBC."
MSNBC is the home of Joe Scarborough and Pat Buchanan and Chris Matthews. Their hosts and reporters regularly traffic in conservative misinformation and -- wittingly or not -- adopt conservative frames for their reports. The fact that they also employ a handful of journalists who lean to the left does not mean it is a liberal channel, any more than CNN's embrace of Lou Dobbs means it is a right-wing channel.
The fact-free insistence by journalists like Marcus that MSNBC is a left-wing news organization does as much to skew public discourse to the right as does Fox News and Rush Limbaugh.
Courtesy of the Washington Post's Ruth Marcus:
Imagine the outcry if the Bush administration had pulled a similar hissy fit with MSNBC. "Opinion journalism masquerading as news," White House communications director Anita Dunn declared of Fox. Certainly Fox tends to report its news with a conservative slant -- but has anyone at the White House clicked over to MSNBC recently? Or is the only problem opinion journalism that doesn't match its opinion?
Has Marcus "clicked over" to MSNBC lately? Or is she just mindlessly parroting the right-wing talking point that MSNBC and Fox are equivalent?
If she Marcus did watch MSNBC, she'd see former Republican Congressman Joe Scarborough hosting three agenda-setting hours each morning. She'd see Mika Brzezinski, JoeSco's ostensibly "liberal" sidekick, spouting off about how conservative Sarah Palin fans are the "real Americans."
She'd see former Nixon and Reagan aide and three-time Republican presidential candidate Pat Buchanan -- the nation's most famous bigot.
She'd see Chris Matthews, whose has for years displayed open contempt for liberals, overt misogyny, and an archaic belief that minorities are not "regular" people.
She'd Michelle Bernard take a moment away from sending lie-filled anti-health care reform attack-emails to host an MSNBC special dealing with, among other things, health care.
She'd see a steady stream of conservative misinformation all day from Andrea Mitchell and Norah O'Donnell and others.
And then maybe she would remember that MSNBC is the channel that brought us Michael Savage, Ann Coulter, and Don Imus. The channel that fired Phil Donahue despite strong ratings simply because Donahue opposed the Iraq war. The channel that specializes more than any other in apologies for employees' offensive on-air statements.
Any journalist who says MSNBC is in any way the liberal equivalent to Fox News lacks either judgment or honesty -- and, either way, should not be taken seriously -- about anything.

The Leader+ Monitoring Indicators Database (MIDB)
(The database is currently available in: )
Welcome to the Leader+ Monitoring Indicators Database. This tool has been developed by the Leader+ Observatory Contact Point on the basis of data submitted by the National/Regional Managing authorities to the Directorate General for AGRICULTURE AND RURAL DEVELOPMENT (hereinafter referred to as DG AGRI). The indicators were extracted from the European CAP-IDIM database and transmitted to the Contact Point by the DG AGRI.
The MIDB is structured on three different levels: programme, national and European. Each level is displayed in a separate tab. Useful information can also be consulted and downloaded from the tab "Methodology".
At this stage, 2003 and 2004 indicators are complete for all 73 Leader+ programmes. 2005 indicators are only available on a limited basis.
Please observe that the response time of some summary reports including aggregated data at EU level might be slower. This is caused by the high number of indicators used in the calculations.
1) Programme level: it displays the 2003, 2004 and 2005 (where already available) monitoring indicators using the common table's structure laid down in part II of the Commission's working Document "Common Indicators for monitoring Leader+ programming 2000-2006" that the Member States are asked to submit with the annual progress report. These tables can be downloaded in MS Excel format.
2) National and European levels: These reports include summaries of aggregated data by Member State and a selection of consolidated information at EU level. Each table can be downloaded in MS Excel format. It is organised into three main groups of indicators:
a) LAGs overview: It illustrates some characteristics of the LAGs in connection with the profile of the programme area where they are located.
- LAGs overview (I): By type of & size of area
- LAGs overview (II): By population & legal structure
- LAGs overview (III): By decisional structure & priority theme
b) Financial monitoring at action level: It gives an overview of the realised expenditure compared to what was initially programmed. Information is available for each separate action and for all consolidated, and in all cases with yearly comparison for 2003, 2004, and for 2005 where already available.
c) Project implementation: Here there is aggregated information about the number of projects or final recipients of payments, among other physical indicators, for actions 1 and 2. These indicators can be displayed by programme or by field of intervention, and in both cases with a yearly comparison for 2003, 2004 and for 2005 where already available. At EU level, only the top five fields of intervention in terms of realised expenditure and projects started are shown.
With the agreement of the Leader+ Observatory (DG AGRI/F3), during the second half of year 2006 the Contact Point, in close cooperation with the Country Desk Officers at DG AGRI, screened the indicators of the 73 Leader+ programmes already submitted by the Member States for the reporting years, 2003 and 2004.
During this exercise some recurrent inaccuracies were identified. Where new data was available or otherwise corrections were possible, these inaccuracies were corrected. In many cases, the concerned national/regional authorities provided additional information thus allowing for corrections to be made, which were then validated by DG AGRI. Elsewhere, indicators were left as the original values transmitted by the Member States.
As a result of the above, the degree of data reliability could not be regarded as being consistent for the 73 programme indicators and/or the different reporting years. Therefore, for each programme (national or regional) and reporting year the degree of data reliability was defined as follows:
HIGH: No inaccuracies were found or, if so, corrections could be made on the basis of additional information sent by the Member States. Data was then validated by the DG AGRI.
MEDIUM: Inaccuracies were found and corrections were possible even in the absence of additional information.
LOW: Inaccuracies were found but corrections were not possible without new data. Additional information was not available.
At programme level, information about data reliability is provided accordingly through a status bar. At national and European level, the report summaries include a highlight in orange where data from programmes considered as having a low degree of reliability is used in the calculations. These indications are given for information purposes only and should not be considered as an official statement.

Is it possible to make a textbox read only on the selection of a combo box, without the web page posting back? I am creating a sickness form, and if the user selects that a doctor has not been seen, i wish to make specific text boxes read only. The problem with the postback event is that it will not open the modal window after postback, it only opens if the button is once again clicked.
Thanks in advance

Is it possible from a PC using a Citrix ICA Client to connect to Citrix XenApp, then from the XenApp have a RDP remote desktop connection a Server, then map a disk on the Server, such that the mapped disk is available from the PC?
I would suggest that you install Hamachi or something similar on both your local PC and then Server. This will allow you to create a private VPN directly between these two computers. You can then browse to the server over network neighborhood and mount your network share that way. For a simple comparison of these products, see: http://cubicgarden.com/tag/hamachi/

Tools (Tinkers' Construct)
(Redirected from Tools (Tinker's Construct))
Tools refers to a collection of implements added by the Tinkers' Construct mod. Assembled from specific parts made from wide array of Materials, each imparting special properties to the Tool such as speed, durability and strength. Some are similar in function to the Vanilla Minecraft Tools, yet with inherent distinctions. A Tool does not disappear when it breaks, instead it can be fixed with less materials than it would take to build a new one. It can be enchanted simply by adding special materials to it once crafted.
Basic Tool[edit]
A basic tool can be built in a Tool Station or a Tool Forge. More information on the parts listed can be found on the Blank Pattern page.
- Tool Rod. • Assembled from a Pickaxe Head, Tool Binding and
- Tool Rod. • Assembled from a Shovel Head and
- Tool Rod. • Assembled from an Axe Head and
- • Assembled from an Axe Head, Shovel Head and Tool Rod. A combination of an Axe, Shovel and a Hoe.
- • Assembled from a Chisel Head and Tool Rod. Carves a stone brick into another decorative design.
- • Assembled from a Pan and Tool Rod. Can also be used as a cooking Tool.
Advanced Tool[edit]
An advanced tool is built in a Tool Forge, and can be fixed or upgraded in a Tool Station.
- • Assembled from a Hammer Head, 2 Large plates, and Tough Tool Rod. Deals extra damage to the undead.
- • Assembled from a Scythe Head, Tough Binding, and 2 Tough Tool Rods. Reaps a 3x3 section of crops and attacks enemies within the area.
- • Assembled from a Broad Shovel Head, Large Plate, Tough Binding, and Tough Tool Rod. It can dig a 3x3 hole in one swoop.
- • Assembled from a Broad Axe Head, Large Plate, Tough Binding, and Tough Tool Rod. It can harvest the wood of an entire tree up to a height of 30 blocks.
Attack Damage[edit]
The attack damage modifier of a tool's blade is added to the modifier of the tool. So for example, a Wooden Blade has 0 damage modifier, so a Scythe with a Wooden Blade would cut with 1.5 damage; a Excavator with a Manyullyn blade would dig with 4 damage. Damage can be further improved through modifiers.
A Tool damage modifier sortable list:
| Damage
Durability and Speed [1][edit]
When constructing Tools, each one has different formulas for calculating the total durability and speed.
- Pickaxe, Shovel: [2]
- Mattock:
- Hammer:
- Excavator, Lumber Axe:
Optimization Example[edit]
The choice of materials used in a Tool's construction will vary greatly based on the intended use. Each player will experiment to find the right combination to suit the purpose at hand. Here are a few examples:
- Durability [3]
- Mining Speed
- Mining Level
- Pickaxe Head: Manyullyn • Tool Binding: Any • Handle: Any

Sentiment: Strong Buy
This is one of the hottest technologies that oncologists across the World are watching. The target specific delivery of drug to tumor is the treatment of the future. Side effects are minimized and a much higher success profile are the results of CLDX's Antibody Drug Conjugate products. This platform and intellectual value adds hugely to the eventual negotiating price, (whether that be partnership or buyout).
I agree Rich. Celldex is a leader in precision targeted delivery.

I want to dive into developing applications for the Mac and later also for the iPhone. For me as a Rubyist it is clear that I learn both, MacRuby and Objective-C. The question is only in which order I should do that. Is it easier to learn Objective-C first and then combine the knowledge of both worlds and start learning MacRuby, or is it easier to start with MacRuby to slowly find your way into developing applications for the Mac?
My understanding of the Ruby language is quite good - 5 years of experience, and I also have a decent understanding of C. Just in case that this makes it easier to answer my question.
