Edmonds Breast Augmentation reviews
100% of Edmonds reviewers said Breast Augmentation was worth it
"It's my Time!! - Seattle, WA"
Surgery date is set for 3/27. I'm 5'2" 130# am currently wearing A-B size. I'm 38 and had both of my kids by the time I was 22, so I've been living with deflated empty sacs of skin for too long! I always wear padded bras and am embarrassed by my chest. Finally going to do this and I'm excited not only for how I will look, but how I will feel. Before shot Sore, but slightly less than... more
"Age 34, One Child Nearly Grown. -..."
I was generally happy to begin with but wanted to feel "better than good." I went with 304cc (I'm 5' 4", 110lbs) so that was big enough for me. I was VERY happy with Dr. Peters' support through the whole process (and her nurse). I have been looking into this for years and have talked to many people so I was more prepared than some. She made sure I had all the information I could possibly need... more
"Got 300 Ccs and Really Wish I Had..."
I am almost 2 weeks post op and have been pretty bummed the last few days. I really wish I had gotten a bigger size and thought I would be so happy. I find myself trying to convince myself its not that much of a difference but I feel that it would have given me more "fullness" and "fluff". I've been reading a lot now after the fact and wish I had done so before. I was a 34 B before and my dr... more
"Breast Augmentation That is Still..."
I had my first child December 2009 and was done breastfeeding September 2010. I had my silicone breast augmentation surgery April 2011. I have Natrelle 15-371cc silicone implants with a periareolar incision. I healed very quickly and had no complications. I was barely sore for maybe a day or two then after that felt great. I have no numbness in my nipples either. I got pregnant again last year... more
"Rhinoplasty and Breast Augmentation..."
I am 22 years old 5,3" and 115 pounds. I am having both rhinoplasty and breast augmentation done at the same time. I have been self conscious about my nose my whole life and I am so glad I finally get to do this. Also my breast size right now is a 34A and would like to be about a C or small D cup size. I went in for my consultation and got pictures taken of my nose and he edited them to what... more
"Breast Augmentation - Seattle, WA"
I decided to get a breast augmentation after having my daughter and losing most of the volume and lift in my breasts. Dr. Park and his staff spent a lot of time walking me through all of my choices, explaining what to expect with the surgery and post op, and helped me choose the best size and shape implant for me. I went with the silicone, anatomical shaped implant and would tell anybody that... more
"Saline Breast Augmentation - 25 year old"
After many years of thinking about getting a breast augmentation, I finally decided to have the procedure in December of 2013.It was by far one of the best decisions I have ever made. From my initial consultation to my post op appointments (I've had two so far) Dr. Pratt has been nothing but professional and supportive. Additionally, he surrounds himself with an amazing team, especially... more
"From Asymetrical Breasts to..."
I spent years wanting to have a breast augmentation to correct my dramatically asymmetrical breasts. Yes, I know most women have uneven breasts, however, mine were incredibly so. REALLY UNEVEN. I had a large A/small B on one side, and basically nothing but a nipple on the other side. Nada. I spent my whole life stuffing those gel-like pads (I called them chicken cutlets) into the left... more
Hello ladies! I am hoping you can help me out. I am from Seattle, Wa but currently live in Germany. I am planning a long vacation home this summer and I am looking for a plastic surgeon to perform a breast augmentation that often deals with out of town patients. I would like to start the consultation/ scheduling process before I get there so I can have the surgery shortly after arriving... more

I'm a little... more
"Exactly What I Wanted -Mountlake..."
I desired fuller breasts after extended breastfeeding of two children. I consulted 2 surgeons and felt that Dr. Sattler was the right choice after meeting him. The staff at his Mountlake Terrace office are so sweet, they make you feel so comfortable during the pre-op visits. His nurse anesthetist Mary Kay was excellent--she calls the night before surgery to go over health history, all the... more
"Love love love - Kirkland, WA"
I'm a recovered patient of Dr. David Pratt and couldn't be happier with my surgery experience! Surgery can be scary (not knowing exactly what the outcome will be) but in the office of Dr. Pratt, I felt extremely comfortable and well taken care of. The staff was very attentive, helpful and understanding of my concerns (they must have answered 20 emails from me before I had even had my... more

About a month ago i had breast augmentation done by Naficy. Over the course of two years i did tons of research on various companies but i am SOOOOO happy I went through Naficy. Choosing a size was fun and the nurses really listened to what i wanted and gave me advice accordingly. I wanted something that looked natural. The front desk people are great! They helped me reschedule when i had... more
"Need Advice on Size---want to Be a..."
Hi there, my BA is less than 2 weeks away and I am starting to freak out :) I am 38 years old, 5'7" and 130 pounds, BWD 13. I breastfed two children for a combined total of 2 years. I was always a 34A and never happy with my size but they were cute and perky. I've always worn padding since high school. After nursing two kiddos, though, they are deflated, shriveled, and sooo flat. My... more

The time is getting closer and I am getting sooooo nervous and excited!!:) I want to be sure I have everything I need. Could someone please give me ideas of what items to have on hand for after my surgery? Also, do u recommend a surgical bra with the strap attached or unattached? What's the difference between using an ice pack and a heating pad? I've seen some use the cold packs and some use... more
"Satisfied Mommy! - Mountlake Terrace, WA"
I had done prior consults and researching before choosing Dr. Sattler and his team. I felt at ease from initial consultation through to my post op visits. Even after my procedure, Dr. Sattler and his team checked in by calling and in response was always readily available when I called or emailed with concerns. I recommend Dr. Sattler and his team to anyone who want comfort, clarity,... more
"Best Plastic Surgeon! - Lynnwood, WA"
I had the breast implant for 397cc for both breast on 5/22/2013. This is the first time of my life to get the plastic surgery. I found out Dr. Sattler on the website. I saw all the picture of the women who did the breast implant before and after surgery. I compared the result with other plastic surgeon on the web. I decided that Dr. Sattler's result look a lot more natural than other... more
"From Sad to Glad. -Seattle, WA"
Pre baby I was a 34B. After 9 months of breast feeding I was down to a very sad A. Two of my girlfriends were talking about having the procedure done for themselves and it made me interested. I was happy to find the referral process through real self and I felt very secure with Dr. Peters. I went in with ideas of what I wanted and Dr. Peters was able to explain to me the pros and cons of my... more
"Breast Augumentation -Bellevue, WA"
I was a 32B wanted to go two cups bigger. Went with 400cc saline under the armpit. Im not too satisfied with my results. I didn't know about this site until after I got my boobs done. I wish I would have know about this site before and would have went with a doctor that people were satisfied with. Its better to pay the cost of a well known doctor. I most likely will need a revision done... more

CSX is one of the largest railroad companies in the eastern United States, and it moves freight in several different ways, including through intermodal transport. (Intermodal transport is when multiple modes of transportation are used to transport freight in an integrated way.)
While industrial freight is the primary component of the company's valuation, the intermodal segment presents a significant opportunity for growth. One of the major reasons for this is that the conversion of truck-to-rail will increase the revenue stream for CSX.
With increasing fees, regulations and highway congestion, many upsides exist for supply chain managers to switch from shipping their goods long distance on trucks, and putting them on trains instead.
CSX is making moves to benefit from this truck-to-rail conversion. It has implemented a highway-to-rail program that seeks to inform and speed up the process of companies switching from using truck transportation for their intermodal freights to CSX's trains.
In order to accommodate the new orders, CSX has been investing capital to buy new terminals in various cities so as to increase capacity. The company has also been upgrading its trains to have double-stacked cleared lanes. Quite simply, by putting two intermodal containers on top of each other, CSX is allowing for twice as much intermodal freight to be carried.
Right now CSX has 1.2 million units in its domestic intermodal market, but management estimates that some 9 million truckloads are geared for the truck-to-rail conversion. This clearly indicates a significant amount of growth possibility.
But whether it can capture that growth all depends on how successfully CSX can run the details of its business. Over the weekend, tragedy struck in Quebec when a Rail World train loaded with crude oil derailed and crashed. The shale oil boom of recent years is projected to make the U.S. the world's largest oil producer by 2020, but all of that oil has to be transported from remote drilling sites to refineries.
Over the past five years, oil transported by train has grown fortyfold, and the Bakken is expected to produce 800,000 barrels per day by this fall. Pipelines take years to build and gain regulatory approval, which means that much of this new supply is currently being shipped via train. However, this weekend's accident now calls into question the relative safety of train transport versus pipelines like the proposed Keystone XL.
As a result, we are seeing option traders position themselves to profit from continued strength in rail companies, but with a fraction of the risk of owning shares outright.
In one huge trade on Monday, a trader bought 1,700 January 2015 25-strike call options for $2.50 each. This represents an expectation that CSX shares, which are currently trading at $23.30, will rise. In order to reach a break-even price of $27.50, the shares have to rally by 18 percent, which sounds like a lot. But keep in mind that the options do not expire for another 557 days.
If the shares log 8.6 percent growth by the end of 2013, and then another 8.6 percent in 2014, then they will have grown by 18 percent for the January 2015 expiration.
This presents a lot of time for something good to happen. And in terms of the downside risk, the max loss of this trade is only $425,000. If the trader wanted to take a bullish bet by getting long CSX stock, and then the company went bankrupt (an admittedly unlikely outcome), they would lose a lot more.
By buying call options, this trader has reduced the potential risk by 90 percent. This is a safe way to trade CSX that allows the trader to ride out any negative short-term news while covering their risk in case there begins to be a shift away from rail freight.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I got this card in the grey with ticket edges. We got the matching invitations with the pearl shimmer finish, but left these plain and I love the contrast. I also love that you can add a photo on the back. They look super expensive and I couldn't be happier!"
"We were able to fit the Directions and Accommodations on this card. The back side is also available. We ordered in the Signature White (Pearly White) and love the look."
"This really completed our wedding invitations! We used the wedding invitation, the RSVP card and this card as part of our invites. It would be perfect for providing information of how to get from the church to the reception - however we actually provided a map and used this card to include a cute poem asking guests not to bring gifts and just add to our honeymoon fund!"
"I bought these to go with the Posh Palm invites, since that style didn't have an enclosure card. These were designed to match the font on the PP invites, and we selected the brown lettering color which matched well with the gold that we picked for the invites....together they look wonderful!!"
"I used this item sort of backward and nontraditionally. I made my big invitation for the reception due to inviting everyone there. I wanted to keep the ceremony more private, so I chose to use this Details card as a private Ceremony invite for immediate family. Since I was only getting a small number, I rounded the corners. I chose to keep the background color on front and back. I replaced the white, blaze and baltic colors with bay and ivory on blaze background."

The Lynette Owens & Associates Insurance Advisory Council is still going strong, marking its 17th year of gathering to discuss financial industry issues as they relate to incentive programs—and to get updates from the meeting properties in the portfolio of Lynette Owens & Associates, a hotel marketing firm. Council members are senior executives in insurance and financial services companies.
This year's meeting was held over the summer at Pinehurst Resort & Country Club in Pinehurst, N.C. Top of mind was reinforcement of incentive conference attendance as the primary way for corporate leaders to build relationships with top producers, and to hear what's on their minds. When asked what influences their decisions to hold incentive conferences, Owens reports, "They told us that the simple answer is: competition demands it. But the more studied answer is that an incentive conference is a time to reward loyal producers for their efforts, a time to develop quality business relationships with producers, to listen to sales leaders, and to educate and motivate."
Council members participating in the 2009 Summer Meeting were: Tom Schori, principal, Axia Strategies; Damian Salvi, vice president, team advantage, Baltimore Life Insurance Company; Joe Choma, vice president, operations, Baypark Financial/MetLife; Franci Neill, vice president, meetings & conferences, Brokerage Concepts, Inc.; Mike Belz, president & CEO, Catholic Life Insurance; Keith Smith, relationship development manager, Beneficial Financial; Bob Thomas, senior vice president, marketing, Chesapeake/TexasLife/Wilton Re; Tom Nicholson, vice president, sales & marketing, DakotaCare; Ed Carroll, president, Carroll & Associates; Brian Bulakites, sales vice president, financial institutions, Genworth Financial; Steve Koza, national sales director, IAP Life; Ed Ledford, vice president, business development, Foresters Financial Partners; Mark Kemp, president, Police and Fireman's Insurance Association; Pat Kenney, vice president, sales & marketing, Assurity Life; and Bill Hess, Columbia Financial.
Hotels currently represented by Lynette Owens & Associates are: Walt Disney World Resorts; Hammock Beach Resort, Palm Coast, Fla.; La Quinta Resort, La Quinta, Calif.; Ojai Valley Inn & Spa, Ojai, Calif; Nemacolin Woodlands Resort & Spa, Farmington, Pa.; Ponte Vedra Beach Resorts, Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla.; La Costa Resort & Spa, Carlsbad, Calif.; Grand Wailea Resort Hotel & Spa, Maui, Hawaii; Balboa Bay Club & Resort, Newport Beach, Calif.; The M Resort, Las Vegas; Pinehurst Resort, Pinehurst, N.C.; Hilton Marco Beach Resort, Marco Island, Fla.

Harry Moser, founder of the Reshoring Initiative grew up experiencing the glory of U.S. manufacturing.
Moser's father - a manager, and grandfather - a foreman, worked for the once sprawling Singer Sewing Machine Company factory in Elizabeth, New Jersey. Moser himself spent summer vacations during high school and college working at the plant.
But that was then. The Singer factory is now gone as are a long list of other American manufacturing plants and companies due to decades of offshoring. Not wanting to see even more U.S. manufacturing jobs disappear, Moser decided to start the Reshoring Initiative to help companies recognize that U.S. manufacturing is often the most profitable choice.
With more than 45 years of manufacturing experience (most recently as chairman emeritus of Charmilles Technologies Corporation (now GF AgieCharmilles)), Moser is a leading industry spokesman for reshoring and for developing the skilled manufacturing workforce required by reshoring.
Largely due to the success of the Reshoring Initiative, Moser was inducted into the 2010 Industry Week Manufacturing Hall of Fame and named Quality Magazine's 2012 Quality Professional of the Year. He participated in President Obama's 2012 Insourcing Forum, testified at a Congressional hearing on reshoring and manufacturing, and has been featured in numerous publications including The Wall Street Journal, USA Today and Bloomberg Businessweek.
In an effort to further encourage manufacturing education, Moser sits on the board of The National Institute of Metalworking Skills - an institute providing credentials for skilled manufacturing. Moser is also the president of the Swiss Machine Tool Society. He received a Bachelors of Science in Mechanical Engineering and a Masters of Science in Engineering at MIT. He also received an MBA from the University of Chicago.

Your Guide to a Smokey Eye Look
By Kate on 21 November 2012
If you love the look of smokey eyes but are unsure how to create them, follow these steps.
Smokey eyes are the perfect makeup look for an evening out or a party. Use these makeup tips to achieve the look for yourself.
Smokey Eye Guide
Blending is the key to this look. Ensure that each layer of eye shadow is blended together flawlessly, and pick the right mix of complementary tones to get the perfect look.
Prepare your eyelid by slicking some makeup primer on and then letting it dry thoroughly. If you don't have a primer then regular foundation will do.
Smooth eyeliner along your upper and lower lash line. Match the color of the eyeliner to the eye shadow you'll be using. Black, grey and brown are standard colors. If you're opting for a colored smokey eye look then use a purple, blue or green liner.
Once the eyeliner is applied, smudge it lightly with your finger, a makeup sponge or a q-tip.
Next, apply a light base color eye shadow to contrast with your darker smokey eye. Sweep the light base color over your entire eyelid, right up to the brow bone.
Apply a dark color, one that will complement your eyeliner, on your upper eyelid. Start at the lash line and blend up to the crease. Ensure that you blend well, and that blend over the eyeliner so that it disappears.
Once you've blended the top eye area, move to the lower eye area and blend as close to your lower lash line as possible.
Check both eyes, make sure they are even and the shadow and eyeliner is blended to perfection.
Finish off your look with a nice coating of mascara on your lashes. For an extra pop, smudge glittery gold or silver metallic eye shadow on the inner corner of your eyes.
As for the rest of your makeup, your smokey eyes should garner all the attention, so keep everything else low key. Nude lips or just a hint of color and just a flushing of natural blush is all that is required.
For even more helpful makeup hints, see our full range of beauty articles and beauty blogs. You can even try some virtual makeup on your own photo or our model using our Virtual Hairstyler!

Gunnar Kaldewey and the Global Book on Display in the Clark's Library September 25 to January 26
For Immediate Release
September 20, 2006
Three extraordinary artists' books produced by master printer and publisher Gunnar A. Kaldewey will be on view in the library of the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute from September 25 to January 26. The display, Gunnar Kaldewey and the Global Book, includes works that were created at his press in nearby Poestenkill, NY.
Featured in the display will be Grimod de la Reynière, Hamburg, Kaldewey Press, 1976, with text by Austrian writer Franz Blei (1871-1942); Hiroshima Mon Amour: Synopsis, New York, Edition Kaldewey, 1985-86, with text by French writer Marguerite Duras (1914-1996); and Zakovannaia Fil'moi (The Celluloid Heart), New York, Edition Kaldewey, 1984, based on the film by Russian poet Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893-1930). Additional supplementing items related to the books will complete the display. The objects are on loan from Kaldewey and the Chapin Library at Williams College.
Artists' books do not resemble most volumes found in a library. They are art objects employing a wide range of forms, including scrolls, fold-outs, or loose items contained in a box, printed in small editions. As with painting or sculpture, much of the "story" in these books is visual. An idea may be illustrated in the book's shape or binding, in the materials used, or in the artist's choice of images. Words may be used to reinforce a message, but they are not always essential to the book's meaning. Although artists have been active in printing and book production for centuries, the artist's book is primarily a 20th century form.
Kaldewey's books are expertly crafted compilations of varying material from all areas of the world. Cedar tree bark from Japan, Plexiglas, Baja desert sand, handmade paper, and aluminum are among the many materials used in his "global books." Born and raised in Germany, Kaldewey brings a European perspective to each project. His interest in Asian cultures finds its outlet in choice of materials, subject matter, and artistic collaborators.
This display completes the four-museum retrospective of Kaldewey's books on view in the northern Berkshires this past year. The Chapin Library, the Williams College Museum of Art, and Mass MoCA have each presented a selection of Kaldewey's books. A catalogue of Kaldewey's books published to date is available for purchase in the Clark's museum shop.
The Clark's library is one of the major art reference and research libraries in the country. Its resources include over 200,000 books, bound periodicals, auction sales catalogues and current journals. It has a significant collection of both rare books and 20th century artists' books. Arranged in open stacks, the library is non-circulating but open to the public Monday through Friday, 9 am to 5 pm.
The Clark is located at 225 South Street in Williamstown, Massachusetts. The galleries are open Tuesday through Sunday from 10 am to 5 pm (daily in July and August). Admission June 1 through October 31 is $10 for adults, free for children 18 and younger, members, and students with valid ID. Admission is free November through May. For more information, call 413-458-2303 or visit www.clarkart.edu.

Courtois plays down strong Atletico start
Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois was happy to have registered a clean sheet against Espanyol but warned that the win does not make them title contenders.
By ESPNSTAR.com staff
Los Colchoneros have only dropped points in their season opener against Levante so far and are currently in second place in La Liga.
With city rivals Real Madrid stuttering in their title defence - they have already lost twice - it appears that Atleti could become the side that carry the capital's hopes this season.
The Belgian custodian, however, accepted that his side's good run of form may not extend for much longer as they face tougher games in the coming months. They face the likes of Malaga, Valencia and Barcelona before the end of the year and could struggle to maintain their unbeaten start to the season.
"It's true that we can't always play like this, but to win on the road is always difficult," he told reporters after the 1-0 win at Espanyol.
"We had some luck and were well organised. We started the season off right by getting 16 or 18 points, [but] we have go game by game and see where we end up.
"It was a tough game, in the first half we played well and scored, but in the second we were tight because they needed the points.
"We play every week, for 90 minutes, with great intensity and it is all thanks to the great preseason we had, but we'll take it game by game."
Atletico coach Diego Simeone called on his players to continue giving their best throughout the season. He was especially happy that the squad managed to grab the three points on Sunday despite the absence of star striker Radamael Falcao.
"We must continue in this direction, being competitive every game in all competetions," he said.
"We came out very well in the first half, and after the break it was a whole different game.
"They came out with more attacking players, but we held strong on defense.
"We are on the right path and we will continue working to continue this run of results."
Atletico next face Malaga, with the Andalusian side just two points behind them having looked equally impressive in the early stages of the season.

|Buy Israel Week
Buy Israel Week
You can support our friends and family in Israel when you buy products made in Israel. From February 25-March 3 Buy Israel Week gives you that opportunity.
In 2005 a global movement was launched for a campaign of Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) against Israel. Since then, events with Israeli speakers, Israeli universities, stores that carry Israeli products, and Israeli companies have been boycotted with the goal of delegitimizing Israel.
The goal of BUY ISRAEL WEEK is to combat the efforts of the BDS protestors through purchasing power. Every purchase can help make a difference. Many Israeli institutions are responsible for scientific research to cure disease; Israeli companies develop technology that we use in our cell phones and computers, and new energy technologies are used in other countries. Whether switching your brand of coffee or purchasing a gift, you can actively make the decision to buy Israel.
The effort is organized by jdeal.com, The Jewish Week Media Group of NY, Washington Jewish Week, Florida Jewish Journal, Tribe Media Corporation, the Jewish Standard of New Jersey, the Chicago Jewish News, Texas Jewish Post, J. the Jewish News Weekly of Northern California and Jewish News of Greater Phoenix, Philadelphia Exponent, Baltimore Jewish Times.–in the United States, as well as Israel-America Chamber of Commerce, Manufacturers' Association of Israel, Israel Export and Cooperation Institute, Conference of Presidents, United with Israel and Stand With Us.

Solid Block
Double slab: No
|Blast resistance
Wood: 15
Stone: Yes
Yes (64), same type only
Wood: Yes
|First appearances
Single Slab: Itself
|Data values
Slabs are half-blocks. Upside-down slabs occupy the top half of their block space rather than the bottom half. To place a slab upside-down, right-click on the bottom of a "ceiling" block, which can be removed after the slab has been placed, or by right clicking the top half of another block, if the player wishes to place it on the side of another double or single slab block.
All types of "stone" slab have the same data values; like wood and colored wool, they are differentiated by their damage values: stone slabs have a damage value of 0, sandstone slabs has 1, old wooden slabs has 2 (which were actually stone, and are still obtainable), cobblestone slabs has 3, bricks has 4, stone bricks has 5, and nether bricks has 6. Damage value 7 is occupied by nether quartz, and formerly by a smooth variant of the stone slab. Upside down stone slabs have a damage value of 8, sandstone has 9, wooden has 10, cobblestone has 11, bricks has 12, stone bricks has 13, nether bricks has 14, and nether quartz has 15. Real wood slabs use a different set of block and damage values.
[edit] Obtaining
[edit] Natural Occurrence
Stone slabs can be found naturally in NPC Villages lining the roof of a blacksmith shop and inside some of the buildings where they form counters. They are also found in Strongholds where they are used in some of the stairs, ledges and torch pillars. Sandstone slabs can be found naturally in desert wells and desert temples.
[edit] Crafting
Unlike many wooden items, wooden slabs must be crafted entirely from one type of wood, but by the same token, they keep the type (and color) of the wood used, thus "Birch Wood Slabs" and so forth.

[edit] Behavior
Like other partial blocks, slabs are treated as a whole block by other blocks, such as dirt, stone, and glass, and liquids. Two slabs of the same type (e.g. two stone slabs) can be placed one on top of one another to make a single full-size block, but different slab types cannot be mixed in this way. Sandstone, wooden, and cobblestone double-slabs look exactly the same as their full block counterparts, but take a longer time to break and drop two slabs. Wooden slabs are collected more quickly with an axe and are flammable.
Single slabs have the tendency to let through arrows shot from above. They will also destroy gravel and sand blocks that fall onto them (the same as torches, as long as the slab is a bottom-half). They are also treated as transparent by the game and can cause suffocation, prevent placement of torches or other fixtures on them and chests with single slabs above them can still be opened.
An unusual property of slabs is that they are non-solid to redstone. This allows redstone wiring to be hidden underneath while still being able to connect to the wire on the side of the slabs. In addition, redstone placed on top of an upside-down slab can receive signals from an adjacent block of redstone one block lower but cannot transmit signals to it. This is why "ladders" made from upside-down slabs, as pictured to the right, can transmit redstone signals up, but not down.
Mobs can spawn on top of upside down slabs and on double slabs.
Due to the way blast rays propagate from an explosion, slabs provide extremely effective absorption to explosions directly on top of them. Specifically, this is because explosive entities will be lower in elevation when they explode on top of slabs than they would otherwise be on an ordinary block. Although the few slab(s) directly under the explosion will absorb the full force of the blast (with a resistance of 30) as usual, the propagation of damage to the sides will be greatly reduced. If source of the explosion is elevated for any reason at the time of the blast, this protective quirk is lost.
Despite how sneaking lowers the player's eye level half a block, doing so does not allow the player to walk over a single slab with one block of air above it because of the player's true height. A player cannot walk from a block of soul sand to a slab without jumping.
[edit] Video
[edit] History
|October 24, 2009
|Stone slabs were introduced to the game on October 24, 2009, in Classic Survival Test 0.27.
|In Classic and Survival Test, stone slabs could be obtained by mining Coal Ore because of the lack of inventory and crafting.
|Stone slab blocks were called stair blocks before the current stairs were added; after this, they were known as steps (the two forms being single steps and double steps) before all items got official names upon the Beta release.
|Added sandstone, wooden, and cobblestone slabs.
|Before the additional slabs were added, a double stone slab would only yield one slab when broken. Since this update, all double slabs yield 2 of their respective single slabs when broken. Destroying double slabs with TNT, however, still only yields single slabs (when the slabs aren't simply destroyed by the explosion).
|Before Beta 1.3 came out, stone slabs were made with cobblestone instead of stone, but this update introduced cobblestone slabs to the game and changed the recipes for pressure plates and stone slabs so that there wouldn't be any conflicting recipes.
|Added the stone brick, bricks, and smooth full half-slab. (Smooth full half-slab was only obtainable through inventory editing at the time.)
|The sprinting feature was added in this update. While stairs stop the player's sprinting, slabs allow a player to continue sprinting.
|Official release
|1.2 Preview
|All types of slabs can now be placed upside down and under blocks; these occupy the top half of their block space rather than the bottom half.
|Before 1.2, slabs had a 2:1 input/output ratio, i.e. 3 cobblestone would get you only 3 slabs out of the current 6. This is likely due to the fact that the slab types are differentiated by their damage values instead of by different data values, similar to wood, coal or charcoal, and colored wool.
New slabs were added for the four different types of wooden planks, replacing the old wooden oak/"stone" slab. The new slabs were vulnerable to fire, but could now be collected faster with an axe instead of a pickaxe. The old wooden slabs did not burn and could only be collected with a pickaxe because they were the same block and shared the same data value as other slabs, except with a different texture. This caused wooden slabs to break faster with a pickaxe rather than an axe. Wooden slabs were also are not affected by fire and had a stronger blast resistance than wooden planks, which made them a useful building material. These properties could be used in SMP to help prevent griefing, and the fact that wooden slabs didn't burn also made it useful for creating houses in The Nether; but since the update, they can no longer be safely used. The original wooden oak/"stone" slab can still be obtained through inventory editing or the /give command. Wooden slabs already crafted or placed in the world remain the old 'stone' type.
|All four wooden upside-down slabs had the oak plank texture.
|Fixed upside down slabs having same texture.
|Redstone (including repeaters, torches, levers, and pressure plates) and rails can now be placed on slabs and stairs positioned upside down.
|Mobs can now spawn on upside down slabs.
|Smooth lighting on slabs is slightly bugged.
|November 28, 2012
|Jeb tweeted a picture of himself crafting netherbrick slabs.[2]
|Added nether brick slabs, which causes the smooth full half-slab to change its damage value to 43:7
|Added quartz slabs. The formerly unused slab type, known as the smooth full half-slab (see gallery), was removed from the game. Its data values were replaced with the nether quartz slab.
|January 22, 2013
|Jeb states that the smooth full half-slab will be re-implemented with a value of 43:8. The smooth sandstone slab will also be implemented, with a value of 43:9. He also stated that they may be obtained legitimately later.[3]
|The smooth full half-slab is re-implemented with a value of 43:8. The smooth sandstone full half-slab is also added, with a value of 43:9.
|Added acacia and dark oak slabs.
|Stone Brick slabs can now be used to craft Chiseled Stone Bricks also you can craft stone slabs using the new Polished Granite, Polished Diorite or Polished Andesite
|Pocket Edition Alpha
|Added stone slabs.
|Added wooden (original oak) and brick and cobblestone slabs.
|Added sandstone and stone brick slabs.
|Slabs can be placed on the top half of blocks.
|The recipes for crafting slabs gives 6 slabs instead of 3 slabs.
|Added birch and spruce wooden slabs.
|Console Edition
|Added stone, wooden (original oak), sandstone and cobblestone slabs.
|Added stone brick and brick slabs.
|Pi Edition
|Added stone, wooden (original oak), brick and cobblestone slabs.
[edit] Dirt slab
Before stone slabs were added to 0.26, Notch ran a test of dirt slabs. They were never added to the actual game and were only mentioned once.[4] They replaced all dirt blocks and did not grow grass on top.
[edit] Issues
Issues relating to "Slabs" are maintained on the issue tracker. Report issues there.
[edit] Trivia
- An unused slab type, known as the "smooth full half-slab", has a data value of 438, but can only be obtained with
/giveor an inventory editor. It is a full block with the top texture of stone slabs on all six sides. A similar effect with sandstone can be obtained with 439. See the gallery for a comparison image.
- Slabs let a small amount of light pass through their edges. This light is only visible with Smooth Lighting turned on, and does not affect mob spawning or other light-dependent processes.
- The exception of this is that any light directed through a slab does not affect any block's light values north of the source.
- When a slab is placed on top of ice, the slab has the same "slipperiness" as the ice below it. This applies to every other block with a hit-box less than a full block.
- If slabs are placed below TNT, it will significantly reduce their damage. By making a floor of slabs, the TNT will lower its explosive power to two blocks instead of six. This is so because the TNT believes that it is inside the slab, for the game thinks that it is inside a full block, greatly reducing its explosion radius.
- mobs see a slab as a full block. Therefore, by placing an upside down slab above a slab with a block in between, there will be sufficient space for the player to walk through. Mobs, however, will see one block of space in between and won't get through. This does not apply to baby zombies and spiders, because they are only one block tall, and to slimes, as they will hop towards the player even if there is something obstructing the way.
- Stone slabs are the only slab which, when stacked, do not mimic their block in texture.
- You can sneak walk off slabs at ground level.
- Minecarts on powered rails will not be repelled from a slab. They will, however, be repelled by a slab with a minecart on top.
- Though wooden slabs are flammable, the old wooden oak/"stone" slab is still available through inventory editing or the /give command, so in a world/server where commands are allowed, it is possible to obtain fireproof wooden slabs.
- When Creepers explode on stone slabs they only destroy the slab they were standing on and nothing else in the area.
- It is possible to get any type of double slab that you want by using the /give command and typing in /give (player) stone_slab 1 (slab id). This will allow you to build faster. There is not however any way to get a double slab in your inventory without commands, creative mode or mods.
- If you type in /give <player> stone_slab 1 10, then it will give you a wooden slab or plank, but it acts like a stone block. It is not flammable and it makes "stone" sound effects when they are placed, broken, or stepped on. This is the version of the wood slab that was used for old slabs when wood slabs were made flammable.
- If redstone dust is placed on an upside-down slab, it will not trigger adjacent TNT.
- If you set a slab on the top half side of any block under water, it will displace as much of it as a whole block. Not only can you grab a quick breath of air, but you can see as clear through the water as looking over the land above the surface than in it itself.
- When an upside down slab is pushed from the bottom by a piston (or regular slab pushed from the top), it is pushed without having contact from the piston. The same idea can also be made when pulled by a sticky piston.

Participants will learn to create multimedia CD-ROMs and Websites using software such as Dreamweaver and tools such as digital cameras, sound and video equipment, scanners, and state-of-the-art Macintosh and PC computers.
In the Internet Tech Leaders Institute for High School Girls, participants take on the roles of Internet developers and engineers for an online community for girls by girls. The curriculum is designed to accommodate both students with basic computer skills and those who already have Web experience. Girls entering 10th through 12th grades, or those who have completed the Camp for Middle School Girls, may participate in the Institute.
Each camp will cover basics such as browsing on the Internet, creating Webpages, preparing images for the Web, adding audio or video effects to Webpages, working with special Web applications such as Javascript, Flash, and databases; and using Web services and practicing Web safety.
A survey released in January by the University of California at Los Angeles found that although women entering college use computers almost as much as men, they are far less confident about their computer skills than their male peers. Also, while women and girls may be just as capable at computers as their male peers, they are often disenchanted or bored by the Internet culture. The Girls Technology Camps use a supportive all-female environment and fun projects to counter negative perceptions. "The camp was really fun," said Becca Greene Cramer, a participant in last year's camps. "I loved working with all the software and especially the digital cameras, and I've been able to do a lot more on the computers at school this year."
The faculty for the camps are Lucie de la Bruere, Dawn Everett and Christina Smith. De La Bruere and Everett are alumni of The Persons School of Marlboro College Teaching with Internet Technologies master's program, and Smith is a current student in the program. The three have extensive experience in teaching middle school and high school, and have been leaders in raising interest and opportunities for girls in technology. De La Bruere, who is the director of the camps, said "My goal is to create a sense of community amongst girls interested in technology. Special things happen when these girls feel a sense of common interest, and the Internet allows that connection to continue after they leave camp."
According to De La Bruere, "online communities for girls already exist, but my vision is to have girls learn high tech skills so that they can create and maintain their own online community. I'm excited that the Marlboro College Technology Center will become part of this vision."
Both camps run from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. Enrollment will be limited, so early application is strongly recommended. For more information or an application, call 802-451-7500 or visit the Technology Center online at persons.marlboro.edu.

Let's face it, most dogs have atrocious table manners.
They never wait to their turn, constantly get fur in your cabernet and have yet to establish the difference between salad and dessert forks.
Nevertheless, Whistler Animals Galore (WAG) have invited the community's canine contingent, along with their owners, to eat, drink and be hairy at the 10th annual K9 Wine and Dine and Charity Auction this Saturday (Sept. 29) at the Hilton.
The popular event, with 125 people and 60 dogs expected to attend, will feature a sumptuous three-course meal for the tail-waggers, courtesy of the cooks at Moguls Coffee House and Gone Bakery. It all starts with the aptly named yappetizers, moving on to homemade meatloaf smothered in gravy (that is hilariously being called "pinot growlio"),with meaty pupcakes for dessert.
"It's probably the first time that the dogs ever get to eat first, before the humans," said Kate Kozak, WAG's director of development and community initiatives, who admitted that people have been asking her about the event since she started at WAG.
When the homo sapien attendees do finally get the chance to dine, they will be served up a gourmet buffet prepared by Whistler Hilton's head chef, that will include a West Coast seafood bake, prosciutto-wrapped chicken with roasted apples, and a roasted herb baron of beef in horseradish jus.
If you're worried about your dog's poor etiquette embarrassing you in front of Whistler high society, WAG's trained volunteers can keep them company or take them to the hotel's courtyard for a jaunt.
After dinner, there will be a 50/50 raffle and a silent auction that's sure to satisfy all guests, whether bipedal or not. Some of the items available to bid on include sled dog tours, ziplining, skydiving and canine behavioural classes, all supplied by local Whistler businesses.
Professional photographer Gabi Moeller will be there to roll out the red carpet and shoot all of the guests in their Sunday best. People and their pup pals are encouraged to dress up at home or choose from the Hollywood-themed wardrobe and accessories that will be on hand.
"It's pretty high-class," said Kozak. "We have a lot of the animals come dressed up in pearls and ties. It's quite an event."
Proceeds from the $55 price tag for humans and $20 for dogs will go to WAG and be divided between the organization's critical care fund, which Kozak said has been depleted in recent months because of the high number of animals that have required veterinary services, the spay and neuter fund and WAG's general operations.
Kozak thinks the event has been such a hit in years past because so many people own WAG pets and the community, unsurprisingly, has a great love of animals.
"Whistler has an extremely strong pet community," she said. "The canine population and the acceptance of the canine here is amazing. There are not many places that would host this type of event."
There's still time to work on Fido's manners before the event, which runs Saturday from 6 to 9 p.m. at Hilton Whistler.

The ref was terrible, but so was Arsenal's summer
Arsenal might have good grounds to feel aggrieved at referee Anthony Taylor after their 3-1 defeat to Aston Villa on the opening day of the Premier League season.
The award of Villa's second penalty was contentious, as it looked as if Laurent Koscielny got the ball as Gabi Agbonlahor closed in on goal, but that was nothing compared to the decision to send off the Frenchman for a second bookable offence just minutes later.
- Hughes: Same old Villa - with a new twist
- Report: Villa stun ten-man Gunners
There appeared to be very little in a coming together between Koscielny and a Villa player; Taylor played on, then when play stopped he came back to send him off. It's as bad a decision as you will see all season, and it robbed Arsenal of any real chance of getting back into the game.
Throughout the game Taylor seemed keen to let Villa work an advantage, but numerous times stopped play when Arsenal could have been awarded the same refereeing courtesy. It was the kind of display that had home fans cheering sarcastically any time he did actually give Arsenal something, although it will be overlooked that he could easily have sent off Wojciech Szczesny in the first half when he brought down Agbonlahor for the first Villa penalty.
But as bad as he was -- and he really was -- the Gunners reaped what they sowed after a summer of transfer inaction. Some will argue that you can't legislate for a referee having a stinker like that, and that's true, but what you can control is the quality of your squad, and a better Arsenal team would have won that game today.
They had all summer to improve their squad. Instead, they procrastinated, dithered, delayed, hummed and hawed to the point where nothing had been done before today's kickoff. Aside from the lack of new players coming in, they now lose one of just two fit centre-halves for next week's trip to Fulham -- Kieran Gibbs was taken off with what looked like a serious head wound, while a horrible looking landing saw Bacary Sagna go off with just minutes left.
Murphy's Law was in action in North London today, but Arsenal really only have themselves to blame. They had the time and the resources to significantly improve their squad this summer and chose not to. There is no referee to blame for not allowing them to make transfers, just a dysfunctional system that has seen the likes of Gonzalo Higuain and Luiz Gustavo go elsewhere. How different a proposition would they have been today with those two players in the side?
After Villa's third goal went in, the fans in the stadium, who had been fully behind the players to that point, directed their considerable ire at the manager and the board, with chants of "Spend some f---ing money."
Yet you wonder if this will make any difference. If the will wasn't there to do it in a timely fashion, when it would really have helped, why now? An injury crisis? Fan pressure? This is reactive rather than proactive from Arsenal; it can't legitimately be seen as some kind of plan or the right way to run a football club.
A midweek Champions League qualifier awaits. The outcome is anybody's guess, but given the state of the squad, it's hard to feel confident.

Report: Syracuse's James Southerland's suspension due to NCAA investigation
Syracuse forward James Southerland's suspension is due to an NCAA investigation into the Syracuse basketball program's academic records, according to a report from Mike Waters in The Post-Standard.
SU announced before last Saturday's game against Villanova that Southerland, its go-to scorer off the bench, would be ineligible to play indefinitely.
Waters reported that Southerland was first temporarily suspended just before the Orange took on Providence on Jan. 9, but was cleared to play after he made "a payment to reimburse for improper benefits." This current suspension, which came two days after the game against Providence, relates to whether a tutor wrote some of one of Southerland's term papers, Waters reported.
SU head coach Jim Boeheim cited privacy issues when declining to elaborate on the reasons for Southerland's eligibility. But he opened up somewhat in a subsequent interview while touring ESPN's studios on Monday.
"Kids are going to get in situations and over the years they have," Boeheim said. "We have been fortunate to be very careful. We have two academic advisers, we have several people that work with our players through all kinds of issues and I think that's why we never had that many problems over the years. But when they do strike, obviously, it is troubling.
"We will get through it and, hopefully, James will get through this."
The sixth-ranked Orange will travel to take on No. 1 Louisville on Saturday. If Southerland is not reinstated, he will not be allowed to make the trip with the team.

June 14, 2013—On June 13, aquanaut, oceanographer and marine biologist Sylvia Earle received the Hubbard Medal, the National Geographic Society's highest honor, for distinction in exploration, discovery and research. In light of recent public discussions about women in the sciences, National Geographic asked Sylvia to discuss her experiences as a woman in a field previously considered a man's world.
I have parents who made me believe that it was okay to do things no matter what.
I have an older brother and a younger brother. And I was one of the boys, if you will [Laughs]. Tomboy, if you will.
Although my mother did say when I was a teenager that I could look forward to a career perhaps as a teacher, as a nurse, something really exciting-I could be an airline stewardess. Not a pilot, not a doctor, you know, not a superintendent of schools. It was just the way things were.
Why shouldn't I be able to use the capabilities that I have to do what my brother could do or Cousteau did? Along the way I found that many people did think it was, not just unusual, but preposterous. [Laughs]
When I was selected to be an aquanaut for a mission in 1970 it was still considered to be unusual enough for women to want to be underwater explorers. The application for being a part of that didn't even bother to say that you had to be a man, unlike the astronaut program that was going on at that time. It was clear: this was for men only.
But the head of the program for the tech-type project that had men and women living underwater for two weeks at a time was philosophical about it. More than that, he was practical. He said, "Well, half the fish are female. I guess we can put up with a few women." The Navy personnel involved were not quite so enthusiastic about it.
There's no question about it that there is still a gender bias with compensation for equal performance, so selection to be in charge of various projects. It's just part of our culture.
But I have say that it is exciting to see women CEOs. I've personally have served on the boards of major corporations. But always in the minority, always in the minority. And there is this attitude sometimes that you're there because you are a woman. You are the token woman.
Today, young women wanting to be oceanographers find that the doors are open. You can go aboard ships. You can be Chief Scientist on expeditions at sea.
Kids—they're all explorers! Little girls, little boys, it doesn't matter. They're just curious.
We shape categories: The boys can do this. Girls shouldn't be doing this.
Or, sometimes you have the joy of just saying, "I don't care what people think. I'm going to go this way because I really want to know what's out there."
Those are the explorers who emerge irrespective of what society thinks.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Amazon.com will acquire Goodreads, a website that recommends books.
The deal, financial terms of which were not disclosed, is expected to close before the end of June, Amazon said in a statement on Thursday.
Launched in January 2007, Goodreads provides reading recommendations, has a social aspect and will provide reading lists based on what your friends like. The site claims 16 million users and carries 23 million reviews.
Amazon also provides recommendations on its website and it's initially unknown if the two sites will be merged, if Goodreads data will be used on the Amazon site, or if Goodreads customers will be pushed to buy books from Amazon.
"We're now going to be able to move faster in bringing the Goodreads experience to millions of readers around the world," said Otis Chandler, Goodreads CEO and co-founder, in a statement. "We're looking forward to inspiring greater literary discussion and helping more readers find great books, whether they read in print or digitally."
Following the acquisition, the company will remain based in San Francisco.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.
