Customized Medium VELO Backpack
Overall rating based on 19 reviews
I love this backpack. It's been great for commuting in summer heat, with or without a laptop. Holds everything you might need for a day at work -- lunch, umbrella, sweater, notebook, etc -- without looking or feeling bulky. Can fit a bike helmet in it as well. The seatbelt straps are comfortable in my experience although I haven't loaded the bag down too much.
David Watkins – Verified Buyer
Great little bag. Simple. Excellent as an airline carry-on and around town use. I would buy large size though next time
Leslie Van Orsdel – Verified Buyer
I love this bag as much as I thought I would! I saw it on a stranger and promptly ordered one. Heavy duty quality everything but end result is lightweight.
One suggestion: the robust zipper leaves a bit of a gap where the pulls join. This might just be a dream but if the same zipper could be made to close more snugly, the waterproofing would be perfect.
I also would love some way to creatively and securely attach a water bottle to the outside so it would not take up inside room. Don't really like to 'biner it to the back tabs as then it swings annoyingly.
The real and only reason I did not give 5 stars: the standard straps are short and this is gonna be a problem in winter when I wear puffy jackets. I am at the end of the strap wearing it over t-shirts now. I am a 5'6" average size woman with short arms so I can't imagine how this works for a big guy! I'll try it and I guess if it doesn't fit I will send it in and ask Rickshaw to customize it for me in that way. I really like the seatbelt type straps generally. Not as bulky as regular padded backpack.
Jenna Coughlin – Verified Buyer
I'm really happy with my new bag. I like that it's functional for cycle commuting, but the fabric I chose doesn't look too sporty, making it suitable for work, as well. The main compartment is spacious, but the configuration seems to keep things from getting lost at the bottom. The front pocket organization is great for smaller items, so I'm never scrambling for my phone, ID or public transit card. I was also really impressed with how quickly the bag was made and shipped to me.

"I was so angry I wanted to continue. But I stopped after two days out of sheer, physical exhaustion," says Mr. Eskew, who goes by the name of Najee Ali today.
The experiences and divergent viewpoints of Mira Jang, Randy Jurado Ertll, and Najee Ali help tell a tale of what lay behind the worst riots in US history and of how far, in the decade since, the city has come.
And hasn't.
Like Los Angeles itself, their lives have been inexorably changed by the cataclysm that played out in the streets of South-Central on those four searing nights in April. Yet many of the forces that gave rise to the paroxysm of looting and arson economic disparity, racial animosity, Balkanized neighborhoods, a troubled police force persist in some form.
Consequently, their stories of that night, and of their idealistic impulses to deal with it since, help explain whether Los Angeles, and, by extension other cities, can avoid the type of civil unrest that has periodically wracked urban America throughout history.
The trigger on that fateful night was the acquittal of four white police officers in the videotaped beating of black motorist Rodney King. Before it all ended on May 3, fires had destroyed 10,000 businesses. Fifty-five people were dead. Estimated damage: $1 billion-plus. The episode left a cityscape resembling a bombed-out war zone, patrolled by the National Guard, Army, and Marines.
L.A. has long been at the cutting edge of American culture, and in this it was no different. Its riots were the costliest in the nation's history.

Florida Gun Classifieds is the best listing site on the web for buying ot srlling new or used pstols.
Rush-hour traffic rattles down Miami's NE Second Avenue as Eduardo pulls his Dodge Intrepid into a weedy lot next to the railroad tracks. He eyes the commuters speeding past and then pops the trunk.
"There she is," he says, opening a cardboard box.
Inside is a matte-black assault rifle — a new Colt M16 .22LR. Three ammo clips are scattered around a milk crate full of empty oil cans and a jumbo bottle of Hawaiian Punch.
"Check out this laser sight!" enthuses Eduardo, a short, paunchy Dominican wearing designer red-and-black shades. He starts to hoist out the rifle — tracing a Predator-style red dot around the trunk — but then thinks twice as a minivan whizzes by.
"Better not scare anyone today," he says.
This parking-lot arms deal seems like the kind of Scarface-style swap that lands everyone involved in prison. But the truth is that roadside assault-rifle sales are perfectly legal in Florida. Buy a gun from the shop and you're subject to a background check; buy it from a dude you met that morning on the internet and there's no red tape. Six hundred dollars later, you could walk away from Eduardo's car with the kind of high-powered weapon used by Marines in Afghanistan.
Eduardo Inirio is just one of the hundreds of South Floridians who use sites such as floridaguntrader.com as a Craigslist for the bandolier set, buying and selling every conceivable armament, from antique Israeli sniper rifles to semiautomatic TEC-9s, from Romanian AK-47s to classic Smith & Wesson handguns.
With some of the most liberal gun laws in the nation — plus a batch of new, gun-friendly statutes awaiting Gov. Rick Scott's signature in Tallahassee — experts expect Florida's online gun-running Wild West to grow.
That's great news for enthusiasts such as Eduardo. "You meet all kinds of great people on there," he says.
He's right. Take Mike, a boat salesman in Pompano Beach. (Like many of the sellers we called, he later asked that his real name not be used.)
He has taken to the web to sell a Lewis Machine & Tool 5.56mm, a jagged-edged assault rifle favored by elite special forces and SWAT teams. With its camo pattern, bipod base, and holographic sights, it would look right at home in a dusty Libyan trench or on a dark Kabul rooftop.
"This thing is superfrickin' badasssss," Mike says. "It literally comes with instructions on how to destroy it if you're captured by the enemy. And you can't remove it from the country without the express consent of the secretary of state."
Mike says he won the gun at a raffle at his local gun shop, so he'll turn a tidy profit if he can find someone to pony up $2,200 to take it off his hands. "I'm a little in over my head with this one, honestly," he says. "Besides, I got AKs at home for when the shit hits the fan."
On the site Florida Gun Trader, a varied subculture of collectors, hunters, antigovernment types, and law enforcement personnel mingle and haggle over prices.
There are guys like Jim, a Gulf Coast resident looking to unload a Yugoslavian AK-47 for $500. He plans to upgrade to a newer AR-15 — not that you should sneeze at the communist-era rifle. "Put this one up against those Romanian AKs and you'll see the difference," he says, sneering out the word Romanian. "The finish isn't perfect, but the Yugos made a great weapon."
Click the next ad and you might find "Tom," a well-to-do property manager who lives in a luxury condo on Biscayne Bay. The walls of his place are lined with wooden wine racks, but only about a third of the slots are full of Merlots and Malbecs; the rest are bulging with ammo clips.
"I feel that if you put your money into a well-made item, it's going to keep its value," he says, pulling out a Stoner SR-25, a sniper rifle used by the U.S. military and Israeli special forces. "Some people put their money into stocks and bonds. I like guns."
There's plenty of history on the site too.
Doug, a husky-voiced collector from South Dade, is looking to sell a Sino-Soviet SKS: a simple-looking, wooden-stock rifle with a heck of a backstory.
The gun's lineage traces all the way to the days before Mao Zedong's split with his Red Army neighbors, when Russian engineers traveled to Beijing to teach gunsmiths how to make a modern-era rifle. "Like everything else, the Chinese ran with it," Doug says. They cranked out thousands that later found their way into the Vietnam War.
"This particular gun was a battlefield pick-up in Vietnam," he says. "You smell the strap, it still smells like sweat. Now, there's no way to say for sure, but that's Vietcong sweat right there."
Not enticing enough for you? "Ladies absolutely love shooting this gun," Doug adds.
Sites such as Florida Gun Trader also let cash-strapped gun lovers set up trades. A West Palm woman named Crystal offers a Chevy Blazer for a "Sig, Glock, Benelli, [or] Remington."
Larry McGuire, a firefighter and part-time fisherman in Bradenton, placed an ad last week offering to trade charter trips on his boat for "ARs, AKs, or pistols." He hasn't had any bites just yet. "I'm not sure anyone will actually trade a gun for a fishing trip, but hell, it's worth a shot," he says.
There are no firm stats on the number of guns sold annually through sites such as Florida Gun Trader, because no registration is required and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives doesn't track them. Some critics suggest that tighter reins be kept on the trade of such high-powered arms. Miami Mayor Tomás Regalado, for one, last month signed on to a national campaign advocating stricter background checks on gun sales.
But David Bradford, the site's Austin, Texas-based owner, says Florida Gun Trader and similar sites are part of a long tradition of advertising for firearms. The site, which launched in 2007, has 33,000 visitors a month and has seen membership grow 13 percent monthly this year.
"Firearms have been a part of classified ads since the first ones were printed back in 15th-century England," Bradford says via email.
As for Florida Gun Trader users, they look out for themselves. Like most sellers on the site, McGuire says he requires buyers to fill out a "bill of sale" and to have a Florida driver's license. Many advertisers also ask to see a valid concealed weapons permit.
"Everyone is straight-up on there," he says. "There's a few conspiracy nuts who think the government is tracking us through the site and a few scammers too, but it's mostly just guys who love guns."
Guys such as Eduardo, back in the parking lot. He works for the City of Miami Beach ("So obviously I can't be out here doing anything that's not legal," he says). He grew up in a military family in Santo Domingo, he says, and spent some time in the Dominican army before coming to Miami. Guns are a way of life for him. "Just think of what I can get when I sell this one," he says excitedly, folding the cardboard box flaps over the M16 in his car's trunk. "There's some incredible guns out there that I've never even tried."
Florida Gun Classifieds is the best listing site on the web for buying ot srlling new or used pstols.
>> "...a matte-black assault rifle — a new Colt M16 .22LR... roadside assault-rifle sales ...you could walk away from Eduardo's car with the kind of high-powered weapon used by Marines in Afghanistan.<<ROTFLMAO! Maybe "Nancy-boy" Marines in Afghanistan use a gun like this, but its most-common use in that theater is probably shooting rats.
The Colt M16 .22LR chambers a standard .22LR cartridge that produces a muzzle velocity of about 1200fps with a 40-grain bullet. At 100 yards, it's rated at about 90 foot-pounds of force.A Colt M-16 (or its more common variant, the M-4) fires a .223 caliber 55-grain bullet at 3240 fps and is rated at 1000+ foot-pounds at 100 yards. The M-16 packs about 7 times the wallop at 100 yards that the M-16 .22LR does at the muzzle. In effect, the M-16 .22LR is the next step up from a high-end pellet gun (7 grain pellet, 1000fps). There are less powerful cartridges - but they are few.
Beyond that, the .223 Remington cartridge used in M-16M-4 is at the low-end of "high-powered" weapons. The military ball .30-06 round, first used over 100 years ago in the 1903 Springfield, is a 165 grain bullet traveling at 2800fps with a 100-yard force level of 2426 foot-pounds - more than twice the 'punch' of the M-16 and almost 27 times as much as your "high-powered" weapon example.Tim, I think you've just established a new low for the definition of "high-powered weapon". Can slingshots and BB guns be far behind?

I'm 100% sure that the rebels are going to reclaim their country sooner or later, no matter what happens, because God will never leave such murderers (Ghaddafi-like beings) without punishment. P.S. Mundo > Ghaddafi (I'm serious)
Soon, you probably will know what I mean.

we shot 22 tomahawks at libya this morning, that's 200 since the 19th :P
Nobody forgot about libya. If you listen to the news it was actually a hot topic today that was repeated over and over and over again. If anything there was very little in terms of the earthquake out east. That and the ontario budget :P But none of you care about that

Notes: Substitutions may be made with approval of the program director based on criteria of a SLU-equivalent academic substance and of a 50 percent Asian content to the course. To insure some multidisciplinary breadth, students are encouraged to take their elective credits in three of the six different disciplines included above (english, foreign language, international business, history, political science, and theology). Students who are concentrating in one Asian country (like China or India) must take at least one elective that covers another or other Asian countries. Because of its continent-wide scope, students are encouraged to take POLS 256.
POLS 393 Asian Studies Capstone (3)
With the Director's permission, students may substitute, for the capstone requirement, an independent study under an Asian Studies faculty member that involves a major writing project. In semesters when the capstone is not offered, students may substitute, with the Director's permission, a 400-level Asian content seminar in any of the six host disciplines.

ATLANTA (AP) — Commemorative events for the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. slid seamlessly into celebrations of the swearing-in Monday of the nation's first black president, with many Americans moved by the reminder of how far the country has come since the 1960s.
"This is the dream that Dr. King talked about in his speech. We see history in the making," said Joyce Oliver, who observed King Day by visiting the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis, Tenn., built on the site of the old Lorraine Motel, where King was assassinated in 1968.
In Atlanta, at the 45th annual service for the civil rights leader at the church where he was pastor, those gathered in the sanctuary were invited to stay to watch President Barack Obama's second inauguration on a big-screen TV.
As the nearly three-hour service closed at Ebenezer Baptist Church, organizers suggested forgoing the traditional singing of "We Shall Overcome" because the inauguration would begin. But the crowd shouted protests, so the choir and congregation sang the civil rights anthem before settling in to watch the events in Washington.
In the nation's capital, dozens took pictures of the King statue before walking to the National Mall for the inauguration.
Nicole Hailey, 34, drove all night with her family from Monroe, N.C. She attended Obama's first inauguration four years ago and was carrying a commemorative Metro ticket from that day with Obama's face on it.
She and her family visited the King memorial before the swearing-in.
"It's Martin Luther King's special day," she said. "We're just celebrating freedom."
At the ceremonial inauguration, Obama took the oath on a Bible once owned by King. He called it "a great privilege." The King Bible was one of two used; the other had belonged to Abraham Lincoln.
In Columbia, S.C., civil rights leaders paused during their annual King Day rally to watch the inauguration on a big screen. Most of the crowd of several hundred stayed to watch Obama's address.
"You feel like anything is possible," Jelin Cunningham, a 15-year-old black girl, said of Obama's presidency. "I've learned words alone can't hurt or stop you, because there have been so many hateful things said about him over the past four years."
At the Atlanta service, King's youngest daughter, Bernice King, said the country had been through a difficult year, with divisive elections, military conflicts and natural disasters.
"We pray that this day will be the beginning of a new day in America," she said. "It will be a day when people draw inspiration from the life and legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. It will be a day when people realize and recognize that if it were not for Dr. King and those who fought the fight fought in that movement, we would not be celebrating this presidency."

Schools are working closely with corporations here and across the nation to address growing financial and academic gaps.
Just cutting a check for a school doesn't cut it anymore for businesses.
In a significant shift away from "checkbook philanthropy," corporations in Minnesota and nationwide are not merely writing checks but are helping to write curriculums for schools, design or teach classes and train principals.
In St. Paul and Mahtomedi, 3M has already helped schools develop science curriculums and teach lessons. Cargill executives coach 11 Minneapolis charter school principals on management and business. And this school year St. Louis Park High School will ask corporations for help in designing electives.
"I'm seeing a move toward more advising and sharing business perspective than just cutting a check," said Kathy Christie of the Education Commission of the States, a Colorado-based nonprofit think tank. "Businesses would rather go that way. They see a value of working with the schools."
But is it too close for comfort? Some education advocates see schools and businesses flirting with moves they fear may diminish public education.
"My concern is that many partnerships benefit the company more than the school and students," said Susan Linn, director of Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood, a Boston advocacy nonprofit. "It erodes public education and the purpose of education, which is not to train consumers but to promote citizens."
School leaders say they have to collaborate more with businesses to fill their growing financial and academic gaps.
A look at such collaborations around the country finds IBM helping to open an inner-city public high school in September. The school will prepare graduates for entry-level technology jobs, possibly at IBM.
In Nashville, Tenn., a high school joined with a local credit union to open a student-run branch in the cafeteria, open during lunch periods to students and staff.
"We have the youngest bank tellers in the state of Tennessee," said Aimee Wyatt, a former principal of Antioch High School. "It's been a win-win. They have to be prepared for the workforce."
Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton has urged businesses to "adopt" schools, giving anything from money to expertise.
Businesses apparently don't need any prodding.
In Minneapolis, Cargill, General Mills and Medtronic helped set up a $2.8 million, three-year leadership development program for principals. Corporate human resources executives will coach Minneapolis principals this year on management and other issues.
"In the past, we wrote a check and said, 'Good luck, Minneapolis public schools,'" said Ellen Luger of the General Mills Foundation. "Here we've collaborated with other businesses and we're bringing our expertise through our employees. Volunteers want to feel like ... they're making a difference and they have the skills that can move the needle on an issue."
3M volunteers advised Mahtomedi Public Schools on an engineering curriculum this year, but the 3M Foundation's Barbara Kaufman said the district led the curriculum conversations.
"Most of these teachers have never been in the industry ... we provide the relevancy," she said. "The bottom line is anyone can write a check. When you put your people in front of the check, that's when you make a difference."
A new realization
The change in corporate thinking reflects both a new approach to schools and a way to give in a tough economy, said Margaret Coady, director of the Committee Encouraging Corporate Philanthropy, an international forum of business executives.
"Over time, I think there's been a realization within companies and outside companies that they were leaving value on the table," Coady said. "There were resources that were right at their fingertips that they could mobilize against certain societal issues."
According to the New York group, while companies reined in donations between 2007 and 2009, noncash giving surged. Coady said it signals that corporations still want to give back in the economic downturn and that nonprofits are more comfortable now with corporate involvement.
"There's going to be a learning curve how these sectors can work together," she said. "But public-private partnerships are kind of a core theme to any major conversation going on right now."
Do deals undercut education?
These partnerships build on previous trends in which public schools appealed to businesses for grants, allowed companies to advertise on scoreboards and signed exclusive contracts with soft-drink companies to increase revenues. But like the move to allow advertisements on lockers, this latest development is touching off a debate about the increased commercialism of public schools.
"It gets down to an ancient debate about what the purpose of education is," said Linn, of the Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood. "Is it to create a literate population who can think critically ... or to train a workforce?"
Linn questions if bankers advising curriculums will omit the recent failures of the banking industry. If engineers help design classes, she asks, what about environmentalists? And if IBM helps open a public school, she said, "why should we pay taxes" to support public education?
"That undermines the essence of education," she said.
Drawing on experts
But Christie, at the Education Commission of the States, said that as long as businesses don't interject values or promotions, partnerships should be embraced.
That's what St. Louis Park High School hopes to do this year, drawing on experts such as engineers or web designers to help revamp electives that better prepare teens for ever-evolving careers.
At Grand Rapids High School, principal Jim Smokrovich said financial planners, bankers and local Chamber of Commerce leaders strengthened a financial literacy course because they knew firsthand gaps in money management that need to be filled.
"For years, it's been taboo; it's been, 'We'll do our job and you do ours,'" he said. "But it's really nice to bring in an expert to reinforce the teacher. We're not experts in everything we teach."

I like this foundation. If you don't set it with a powder, it does rub off easily. It provides medium coverage and looks very NATURAL!! It is extremely pricey. The fragrance doesn't bother me. Looks great alone and even better with powder on top of it.

- the best real skin texture to coverage foundation; most people can't even tell that you're even wearing foundation (achievement unlocked.)
- blends out easily with clean fingertips or a paddle foundation brush
- broad spectrum of shade ranges
- long lasting
- luxury product (hence, the hefty price tag)
- can't depend on this as your spf (use a primer/spf beforehand, non-negotiable)
- it has fragrance
- lots of companies are now developing their own version of serum infused foundation, so this isn't something groundbreaking in 2015 (NARS, Laura Mercier has came up with their own versions), so it's easy to give this one a miss if it's not within your budget
Here's the deal breaker as to why I will absolutely never buy this again:
- I have seen dozens of serums that comes in the dropper form and being a chemist, this type of droppers typically has that weird rubbery smell that I can't stand over time, which kinds of astounds me as to why it wasn't in those click droppers and not squeeze droppers. Tsk.

I bought this after reading about it in an India Knight column. I like it and have bought it a second time already. I will say that I do not wear it during the day at work because air con and heating in an enclosed office seems to make all makeup cakey on me and I stick to the Bobbi Brown Tinted SPF 25 balm - but outside of the office, this stuff is lovely. It's very liquid in texture and looks like my skin, only better. Ive got pretty good skin (a bit red on the cheeks and slightly oily t-zone but no spots .... touch wood!) and don't need full coverage and I'd say it's medium but builds to full coverage easily. It leaves a semi-matte finish (I use it over Le Blamc de Chanel and a Chanel SPF if it's daytime) and I don't need powder at all. I think it cost me about £36 at Selfridges. You do have to blend fast. It comes in a glas bottle with a little pipette but packaging is never a priority for me as I am more concerned with what's inside. Took 1 lippie off because I did try it at the office, but to no avail.

This is a fabulous product -- pricey, yes, but well worth the money if you want to have a nice even skin tone that looks natural. I smooth a small drop off this on my face every morning -- a little goes a long way so it lasts and lasts. I never need to reapply makeup at work as this product has staying power. I have mild rosacea and some sun damage and this completely covers it up without making me look like an aging pancake face. If you want or need more coverage without the ugly spackle look, I recommend Armani Maestro.

I have this maestro foundation shade #7 which a little bit darker on my complexion, which #6.5 is too light. my skin tone is NC35 or C4 on mac face&body as reference. Which I think I'm somewhere in the middle of 6.5-7. I have a very oily face which easily after put the foundation on my face start to produce oil and become oilier during the day. I dont like wearing primer, so I just let my make up goes in the middle of hot, high humidity climate in my country. But, this baby is exceptional. It gives a nice matte looking where the more I use it the more I notice that during the day my face start to glow, less less less oil, and nice. During the day my pores start to disappear which I was hard to believe, because many foundations will show the pores after couple hours and break your makeup. It smooth like velvet when I rube it, and I when I put it on, I feel like I rub an oil but in dry finish. it last more than 8 hours which is amazing. After my uni, I went back home at the late afternoon, and I looked at the mirror that my makeup was the same and even better. The scent doesn't bother me at all. I just love this foundation and I regret that I just purchased it where many people raved about it. I will absolutely repurchase after I run out or maybe repurchase other giorgio armani foundation marketed for oily skin.

One of the worst foundation formula. I got a sample size bottle in Germany (just when it came out) when buying my favorite Lasting Silk Foundation. I really loved the cute bottle and was told that this new foundation is amazing.
However, I was disappointed. It did not work well for my skin. I just hate the formula. It feels so sticky, slippery and way too silky. It does not dry completely, so this foundation rubs off very easily - on my hands, clothes, scarf. It is also not long lasting.
I still prefer Lasting Silk or even Luminous is much better.

Where to start? So basically i bought this foundation months and months ago after reading lots of great things about it. And ill be honest its taken me a while to like this product and be able to make it work with my skin... However now i LOVE it!!
Before I used mc pro longwear foundation and i swore by it, i had never found another foundation I loved more. I bought this Giorgio Armani one and at first felt like it was so thin and watery, i felt like it didnt look as good as my Mac one. Therefore i just left it alone and never really bothered with it. Few months later i ran out of mac and with never getting round to buying a new one i started wearing this Maestro one. I find i have to wear 2 layers for it to give me enough coverage as it is quite thin, and once you let it sink for 10 mins it looks fabulous! i fell in love with it and even if i use mac now, i still way way prefer this one! It looks so natural but also makes your skin look fab.
It is quite pricey however i do think its worth it. It comes in a glass bottle and has a little squirty pump thing which is easy to blob it on. A little goes a long way, and i will DEFINITELY be buying more now ive ran out!
You may not like it at first but once you give it chance im sure youll love it!!

If this weren't Armani, I'd probably return it. It's just not so miraculous as the brand and price suggests.
I'm somewhere between 3 and 4, color-wise. 3 is quite pale, 4 is much darker and warmer. The SA talked me into 4 because it looked healthier (and I guess it did), but this oxidizes on me as the day goes on, so I end up appearing quite golden. I'm very neutral, so even if it looks "healthier," I think it looks weird.
If there were a 3.5, I'd be happy. It's fun to use, and elegant. I doesn't make my skin look exquisite, but my skin isn't exquisite. It does feel lovely on the skin. But I wish it matched me better.
I bought Chanel Velvet Matte the same day in Rose Beige. I am MUCH more taken with that majick potion. It's thicker and matches me. To be less subjective, it has a lovelier finish and better coverage.

I absolutely LOVE this foundation, it genuinely looks like skin. I've been an avid Luminous silk user for years and whenever I get luminous silk i always ask for a sample of this in various shades to try and find my match, i'm a 6.5/7.
When i first tried this for the first few times i was like.... ok, its mediocre but decent finish, just not long wearing and clings to any remotely dry patch, but kept asking for samples when mine ran out when i was at my local armani counter, i persevered.
Now, i don't have dry skin i have normal but when i get a spot it tends to dry out after which is where the cakeyness and flakiness comes into practice here. The MASTER TRICK WITH THIS FOUNDATION ISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS........ OIL!!!
This is an oil based foundation, it needs an oil based primer, moisturizer or just an oil underneath it, as with all foundations, if you use sillicone foundation use sillicone primer, if you use water based foundation use a water based moistruizer, they are made to marry together.
Not only with the oil from your chosen base prior to application adhere to the foundation, it will make it last longer and moistruize your skin so well it wont get any dry patches. Personally, i use my pai rosehip oil then put a but of moisturizer on before applying and it lasts allllll day, the finish is great (powdering is your preferene, i do t-zone only) and there you have it! If you have this foundation and are hating it, give it a try with an oil underneath, just a few drops, i use about 4 then apply foundation as needed.

To keep FRESH FLOWERS longer Add a little Clorox , or 2 Bayer aspirin , or just use 7-up instead of water. 42. When you go to buy bread in the grocery store, have you ever wondered which is the freshest, so you 'squeeze' for freshness or softness? Did you know that bread is delivered fresh to the stores five days a week? Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Each day has a different color twist tie. They are: Monday = Blue, Tuesday = Green, Thursday = Red Friday = White Saturday = Yellow. So if today was Thursday, you would want red twist tie; not white which is Fridays (almost a week old)! The colors go alphabetically by color Blue- Green - Red - White - Yellow, Monday through Saturday. Very easy to remember. I thought this was interesting. I looked in the grocery store and the bread wrappers DO have different twist ties, and even the ones with the plastic clips have different colors. You learn something new everyday! Enjoy fresh bread when you buy bread with the right color on the day you are shopping. Don't forget Gatorade for Migraine Headaches. PowerAide won't work. Pass this information on to friends so they can be informed.
#4 any oil will work, we learned this the hard way when 4 of my kids caught lice in Dec. We used mayo, but I ran out and tried vegetable oil and olive oil before going to the store and they worked just as well. My vet told me to get fleas off of your dog bathe them in Dawn (I had a pup that I got from the shelter that was too small yet for frontline and had fleas).
Thanks! I knew many of these but not all. The Preparation H for puffy eyes might not work anymore tho. Just heard someone on a morning show the other day saying how the ingredient that helped the puffy eye is no longer in Prep H.
an alcohol based cleaner or just use rubbing alcohol. My mother is a chronic hairspray user (LOL!!!) and her bathroom floor is awful. I used windex and it never worked completely. Then I used rubbing alcohol and it worked! now I just use my steam mop and hold it over the areas for a minute or two and it's gone.
Or the amber colored Listerine. In fact I recently read that the Listerine works better than vinegar! LOL Add to your list: To remove the sticky tape residue you sometimes get after removing price stickers, take another piece of tape and stick it on TO the residue. Rip it off and do that over and over until the residue is gone. I use this for antique items as it's less damaging than many chemical/wet removers.

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
Modern home theater systems usually employ 6 or 8 audio channels to project movie and music sound to the audience. These channels provide power to 2 main front speakers, 1 (or 2) center speaker(s), 1 subwoofer, and a pair (or two pairs) of rear surround sound speakers. This review is about a single speaker dedicated to handle the center channel only.I bought the Polk CS2 through J&R Electronics, where they sold for $125 or something like that. The speaker sports a hefty, quality wood case, which includes a ventilation port in the back and screw-down type binding posts for speaker wire with receptacles for banana plugs, should you choose to use them. The wire connectors are gold-plated, as you would expect on premium speakers. You can certainly gauge the quality in weight here, as this sucker is heavy (17 lbs), wide (21.25 in), and deep (11 and 1/8 in)!The speaker has 3 drivers: 2 mid/woofers and 1 tweeter, the latter positioned in the center and the former on either side of the tweeter. The tweeter is 1 inch in diameter, magnetically shielded, with silk/polymer composite dome. The woofers are 6.5 inches in diameter, magnetically shielded, bi-laminate composite. The frequency range covered is 55 Hz to 25 kHz, and Polk recommends an amplifier with 20 to 175 Watts per channel to drive this speaker.All of this translates into amazing sound. Polk CS2 are very unbiased in how they reproduce the sound. In fact, them being called Monitor Series means that they are supposed to be flat across the range, delivering what was intended by an engineer who mixed and mastered the recording you're playing, without over-emphasizing any particular frequency. They succeed very convincingly in that regard.I tried comparing Polk CS2 with my Paradigm front speakers, which are famous in their accurate, flat, detailed sound reproduction. Problem is, this is somewhat comparing apples and oranges because the Polk is specifically designed for the center channel, while the Paradigms are bookshelf type and are more versatile, able to stand by themselves. Nevertheless, I think the Polk CS2 is in the same league as the Paradigm speakers and is a worthy match as a component speaker.I do not watch movies on my system - I only use it for music. Still, I've listened to a wide enough array of music to judge their quality fairly. One conclusion I drew is that the Polk CS2 reproduces voices with delightful richness, depth, and clarity. BB King never sounded more life-like on King & Clapton's DVD Audio of "Riding with the King". Same goes for other blues belters like Son Seals, T-Bone Singleton, Robert Cray, and Albert King. Polk CS2 gives them the extra dimension of reality, truly being an ideal speaker to compliment vocal-intensive recordings.Another conclusion I drew is that the center tweeter does a LOT of heavy lifting, while the outer mid/woofers fill in the environment somewhat more inconspicuously. The tweeter is absolutely pristine, clear as a summer water fall. This not only benefits the vocals but also brass instruments and, of course, drums. If you have a record that emphasizes snares and crashing cymbals, and they are recorded expertly to preserve their live sound, you will absolutely hear it on Polk CS2.This does not mean that the other 2 drivers, the mid/woofers, should be forgotten. They provide the richness, the depth, and the environment to fill out the highs provided by the tweeter. I stated this in the passing above, and I want to emphasize this point: TRANSPARENCY. You will not be able to tell where the midrange/bass tones are coming from in Polk CS2 - the tones are everywhere. Somehow Polk did away with directionality of those frequencies to make them appear completely interlaced with the tweeter and spreading not only immediately forward of the speaker but also off to the sides.Across the whole frequency range, Polk CS2 comes together into one quite seamlessly. Jazz is reproduced faithfully, without making the brass brighter than it would sound live, and without making the bass into mud. Gerald Wilson's big jazz band sounds alive, and Dave Holland's double bass on "Extensions" and his other recordings sounds like you're standing in the studio. You might be shocked if you put in a "Dark Side of the Moon" remaster by Piink Floyd. They use a huge number of sound effects, and they come alive with clarity, depth, and precision on CS2 - ticking of the clock, percussion, "cha-ching" in "Money" - I just had to laugh, actually. That's how good it sounded to me.I realize there are many fans of classical music out there, but I do not own any CDs of classical music, so I cannot tell you what the performance is like for those. However, I feel that, sonically, classical would be reproduced similatrly to acoustic jazz, and that CS2 does with exceeding detail without overbrightening the midrange and with crisp, clear highs. Bass detail is remarkable for acoustic bass players, and you will hear all the notes they play with zero mud, the rest depending on the subwoofer you use to supplement, if any. The bad news is that with speaker quality this high, you are limited in a couple ways. One, you need high-quality equipment to drive the CS2, or the CS2 will not be fully realized. On the Yamaha DSP-E492 that I use to drive the speaker, I get a minimum 60W RMS power, with up to 110 W on tap if needed, low distortion, and broad frequency range. It sounds beautiful on this equipment and cranking up the volume seems to tighten up the sound and light up the speaker. Similar is true with my Paradigm speakers. So I wouldn't go lower in power than my set-up. Keep in mind that more power in the amplifier isn't necessarily there to make the speaker blast but more importantly to drive it to better, more "active" reproduction at lower volume levels as well.Two, you will be limited by the quality of the recording you're playing. When I say quality, I don't necessarily mean the quality of sound as much as the quality of mix. If they decided to bury the snare drums and the crashing cymbals in the noise, CS2 can't help you. However, with artists that are highly discriminating and attentive to minute details, such as Pink Floyd, or Pat Metheny, or Dire Straits, or Dave Holland, or Elton John, the CS2 will bring out all the details that are there.Ultimately, the choice will rest with the listener, and different people have different liking for different speakers. Many people seem to love these CS2's, while a handful seems to hate them. You kind of need to hear the speakers for yourself before you buy them. That being said, I feel that Polk did a terrific job with the CS2 speaker, providing both excellent quality and very good value with the reasonable pricing.

Rory McIlroy already has half an eye on a career grand slam after putting one hand on the Claret Jug on Saturday afternoon.
The Northern Irishman moved into a six-shot lead at the Open Championship after a third round 68 at Royal Liverpool and is on course to add an Open title to his US Open and US PGA victories.
"It would mean a lot of hype going into Augusta next year," McIlroy correctly predicted when asked about the impact of winning on Sunday.
"Not a lot of people have achieved the career grand slam and if everything goes the right way tomorrow, to get three-quarters of the way there is some achievement by the age of 25.
"I'd be in pretty illustrious company so it would mean an awful lot. I never thought that I'd be able to be in this position. I didn't think that I'd even have the chance at 25 to go for three legs of the grand slam so I'm going to try to put all of that out of my head.
"It would be way too much to think about and way too much to ponder. First things first. Just play a good solid round of golf tomorrow and if that means that I'm going to Augusta next year with a bit of hype, then so be it."
American Rickie Fowler is McIlroy's closest pursuer after also carding a 68 on Saturday.
Fowler made four birdies in his first six holes and three more in succession from the 10th which, coupled with a McIlroy bogey on the 12th, meant the Florida neighbours were tied on 12 under par.
Four holes later Fowler was five behind after carding three bogeys in four holes as McIlroy birdied the 14th and hit a 252-yard four-iron onto the 16th green to set up an eagle from 18 feet.
McIlroy also bogeyed the 17th from a similar place as Fowler - who is the only player to finish in the top five in both majors this season - and although Fowler made birdie on the last, McIlroy stamped his authority on the tournament with another eagle from 10 feet.
"Obviously the finish speaks for itself," McIlroy said. "Rickie Fowler was getting close to me. I knew if I could hit good drives on 16 and 18 I would have a good chance of birdie, I didn't expect to hit eagles but there you go.
"It is a good thing I have experienced this before, good and bad. Hopefully some of that experience I can take into tomorrow.
"My game plan all week has been to take care of the par fives and I want to do that again tomorrow."McIlroy looked happy and relaxed during his post-round press conference and while the tournament is effectively his to lose those sort of thoughts are not entering his head.
"This is the third night in a row that I'll sleep on the lead. I feel very comfortable leading the tournament," added the Northern Irishman, who pledged to maintain his routine of going to the gym, eating and then settling down to watch a film.
"It helps that I've been in this position before and I've been able to get the job done.
"I think whenever you have such a big lead you really can't think about anyone else but yourself.
"You have to think about how you're going to control your emotions, control whatever thoughts you have and focus on what you need to do."

Sample Report
Mies designed and completed the house between 1946 and 1951 as a weekend retreat for Dr. Edith Farnsworth of the Northwestern University Medical School. The house, which has been likened to a Greek temple, is considered a prime example of the International Style.
According to Franz Schulz in his 1985 biography of Mies, the building is "unlike any house conceived before it." It is "a totally glassed-in rectangular box, consisting of roof slab and floor slab -- the latter suspended five feet above the open ground, partly so as to ride above the level of the river's occasional floods." Visitors enter by stairs at one end of the house.
The interior is a single space with a core containing the kitchen and bath. Freestanding cabinet-closets define the sleeping area and a living room, which has a fireplace and a view of the river. Mies specified Roman travertine for the deck and floor and hand-built primavera woodwork. The exterior steel is painted white.
The Farnsworth house was built on 9.6 acres of land, but Lord Palumbo has expanded the site to 150 acres and created a wooded sculpture park next to it with over 22 works by Harry Bertoia, Anthony Caro, Jim Dine, Andy Goldsworthy, Ellsworth Kelly, Richard Serra and others. The site is especially beautiful in spring when thousands of planted bulbs and native wildflowers bloom.
For many years, persons wishing to visit the Farnsworth House had to contact the caretaker, who would show them through by appointment. About 500 people visited annually. In spring of 1997, the house opened to the public and has kept regular hours ever since.
Since the house has not yet been put on the market, nobody knows who might wish to buy it. The price will surely be high because rapid development in the surrounding area has made the riverfront land quite valuable.

Publisher: Obama should be prosecuting Amazon instead of endorsing it
While President Barack Obama was speaking at an Amazon warehouse in Chattanooga, Tenn., an independent publisher was asking for an antitrust investigation of the company, which he thinks uses predatory pricing to create a monopoly.

APSO arrests BR man for July 2014 car burglaries in Geismar
GEISMAR, La (NBC33) — A Baton Rouge man is now in jail for a rash of car burglaries in Geismar.
Major Kevin Hanna, sheriff's spokesperson, says Tyree Davison 18, broke into several cars in the Old Mill and Old Dutchtown Subdivions back in July 2014.
Davison allegedly stole a variety of items including: sunglasses, electronics, a gun, wallets, and loose coin change.
Hanna says detectives figured out Davison was arrested in a neighboring parish on unrelated charges but was found with the stolen gun from Geismar.
Deputies arrested Davison on August 19, 2014, and booked him into the Ascension Parish Jail on the following charges:
- 18 counts of simple vehicle burglary
- 3 counts of attempted simple vehicle burglary
- 15 counts of criminal trespass
- 5 counts of felony theft
- 7 counts of misdemeanor theft
- 1 count of theft of a firearm
At this time, no bond has been set for Davison's release.

Well, I'm ordering one from a US ebay seller. He said to me it's likely the newest revision, as his stock came from the factory 1 week ago. Should have it here on Monday....in it's sealed retail box for $44 Can't wait to join the V911 club. ...and thanks to all of you who've been willing to help answer some things for me. So much useful info in these forums, glad I found it. I notice some metal parts on your V911, and I'm curious to know more about them, if you would? Just bling or performance mods? |

They take them out of the box and then sell the box... Customer service told me they'd leave the heli in the box for shipping at no extra charge. Although, after reading the product page, I'd say the customer service person was wrong. |

Sorry if this has been asked before, but I've been searching through the thread and haven't found anything on this problem.
I got three of these helis yesterday and two of them are working fine. The third (red/white) worked great for 3 flights. Now, I can't get it to power up correctly. When I plug in the battery, the LED glows about half brightness, but does not blink. If I continue to plug and unplug the battery, I can sometimes get it to blink slowly, but it won't talk to the tx. I messed with it for a few hours, and twice actually got it to link to the tx and was able to fly it for a full pack. I'm suspecting a control board issue, but just wanted to see if anyone else has seen something like this. Got online last night and was going to order a new board, but it was almost as cheap to just get a new heli. Banggood had the heli only for $19.99 w/ free shipping, so I just ordered one of them instead. This way I will have spare parts from the old one. |

This is draft #1 for the CHOW Recipe Lab: Coleslaw. Try it and post your comments to this thread.
Coleslaw is the classic summer cookout accompaniment but it's all too often too sweet, too soupy, or too thick. This version has all the classic flavors you'd expect with a couple new twists to keep things interesting. Help us perfect this piece of Americana by tasting it out and giving us your feedback.
Game plan: Making this recipe is a snap with the help of a food processor. If you don't have one just slice the vegetables and apple into 1/4-inch thick slices then crosswise into small pieces.
If you've never participated in one of these, check out this thread for details on how to participate in CHOW Recipe Lab and what it's all about.
- 1Using the grater attachment on the food processor grate the cabbage, carrots, and apple. Transfer to a large bowl.
- 2Combine mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, salt, dill seed, and pepper in a medium bowl. Whisk until smooth.
- 3Pour dressing over cabbage mixture and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 3 days. Stir briefly before serving.

Gingrich would back Romney in November
GOP presidential hopeful Newt Gingrich says he will support front-runner Mitt Romney if he garners the delegates needed for the nomination.
"I think you have to be realistic, given the size of his organization, given the number of primaries he's won, he is far and away the most likely Republican nominee," Gingrich said this morning on Fox News Sunday.

Madonna Jokes About Lady Gaga Rejecting Her Offer to Share the Stage
Someone won't just let it go. Madonna is milking the Lady Gaga diss train for all it's worth. Madge brought up the Mother Monster -- again! -- at her MDNA tour stop on Nov. 4 in St. Paul, Minn. But rather than referring to Gaga as "reductive" or an imitator, Madge joked that the singer "rejected" her offer to share the stage. Boo hoo. Madge is all butt hurt about being told no.
Gwyneth Paltrow Replaces BFF Madonna With a Younger Model

Chastened, but plunging on. A dinner party at Barocco Beach, a gentleman talking about seeing Turkish wrestling on television in Paris, a national sport with the weird quirk of allowing the winner to debase the loser, plunging his hand down the pants of the vanquished and goosing him. Chatter about Linda Evangelista leaving her mate, David Geffen being the equivalent of an eighteen-year-old socially, having only recently come out, and a troublesome question: "What do you breeders do in bed anyway?"
A party at The Spot after Kenny Scharf's opening at Hokin Gallery, hosted by Ocean Drive magazine, Scharf getting off a great line: "This is awful -- all my friends are here." A brief tour of the club's new decor scheme, then over to Warsaw, taking in a show featuring a guy dressed as the Eveready bunny. The bunny walking across the stage, and disappointedly enough, doing nothing of a sexual nature.
Desperate, heading down to Key West for the evening. Barefoot pilots at the airport, lending a little local color: "God, my liver think's my throat's been cut -- it's way past cocktail time." "Pervert row" at Rum Runner's, men lining up to suckle on the dancers' bellies, going off to booths for private dancing sessions -- ugly sex without artistic pretense. Club One, a picture of a lion sodomizing a young god, patrons singing along to "My Funny Valentine" at another gay bar. Tapped out at the end of the rainbow, but renewed again with a great bar story about Peter Allen's last days, as he lay dying of AIDS in Los Angeles: New York socialite Judy Peabody flying out to nurse him, but eventually, the sight of her solicitous face becoming too much to bear. Allen looking up, muttering, "Enough already," and dying shortly afterward. A rather instructive bravery, facing the end of the social whirl, the beginning of the ultimate long night.
