Perfect for blending in the crease. Do the job and cheap, $1, I think. I would repurchase it over and over and over again
I love this brush and would buy again and again and again. In fact, recently I bought 3 additional ones. It is the perfect size for blending in my crease and I own a 217 from MAC and it is as good as the expensive one from MAC

It's only $1! I'm sure it's not as good as a MAC brush (never tried one as I don't have the money so I don't really know), but it's the perfect shape to fit into the crease & it blends well. The bristles have not started shedding, even after washing. If I lose this I will get another one -- and I may anyway just so I can have more than one!

I bought a couple of these last year when I couldn't really afford to buy any better quality brushes and I can honestly say, with brushes, you get what you pay for.
I didn't find it blended my eye shadow particularly well and I found the bristles very scratchy compared to my MAC 217.
For only £1 I can't really complain but I defintiely won't be re-purchasing.
Works alright, I love the size of it. It is pretty scratchy on the eyelids though. Only $1, whaddaya expect?
I recently ordered this brush from the E.L.F site along with the two others (the eyelash and brow wand, and the eyeshadow brush.) which I will be doing reviews on.
~ very soft and fluffy bristles ~ doesn't scratch the lid
~ no shedding.. yet ~ picks up colors nicely
~ blends like a dream ~ fits nicely into crease
This brush works just as well as my MAC 217 I bought from Macy's. I think I like this brush just a little bit more because this does the exact same thing for a lower price. I'm a college student on a budget, so I'll definitely be purchasing another one of these.

Yes! I have nothing to compare this to since I've never used a blending brush before but I love it. I use it every since day to apply build-able color in my crease and in my outer corners. Doesn't pick up/apply too much and buffs everything out avoiding harsh lines. I recommend this!

I bought 2 of these brushes and I guess I got lucky because mine are really soft and blend wonderfully. They are also good for my crease area as well and I use it in the socket and it doesn't hurt at all. I also use them to blend my crease shadow with my brow bone shadow I go in little circles and it blends the colours so easily. I got 2 because I figure when one is dirty I have the other one and I'm glad I did because they work well and for me do not irritate my sensitive skin. It blends my shadows with no problems whatsoever and mine do not shed. I guess I got lucky but I have to rate it 5 lippie's because for the price and quality of the ones I purchased are very good. Recommended!

This is the worst shedding brush I have ever used. Which is such a shame because the price is so enticing and I actually find the brush itself has pretty soft bristles that I don't personally find scratchy and it really can do a very nice job of blending eye shadows. HOWEVER, any time I've used it to blend (and I've given it so many chances over the last few months) it leaves tiny bristles and pieces of bristles all over my eyelid and stuck in my makeup which then smudges the makeup off when you try to remove them - they won't just be brushed away easily.
I've washed this brush so many times now hoping that at some point surely the shedding would stop and all of the loose bristles will have come out by now but it really seems that the shedding is just endless. Maybe the glue used or the ferrule just can't hack it - which is why it's so nice and cheap. Anyway, had the potential to be a decent brush for a steal of a price but the incessant shedding is a serious dealbreaker and basically renders it useless for applying or blending makeup.
There are other E.L.F. eye brushes worth buying, though they're in the Studio line with the black handles - specifically the Eyeshadow "C" Brush, one called the Contour Brush that's basically a little dome crease brush, and the Small Angled Brush for applying eyeliner or brow color. I'd definitely recommend those and they don't cost that much more.

The outdoor wooden bench seating feels like a food stall on Bangkok soi alley. They've got a full list of beer, wine and cocktails, as well as Thai-style iced coffee made with Stumptown beans. The waits can be long but there's also a take-out window for to-go food if you're already way too hungry. The only sour note was snooty service from the too-cool-for-school hipster waiters.2Voodoo Doughnut

It makes for an incredible place to soak in some rays with a cocktail in hand on a sunny day. The food is Asian Fusion, which means you'll find modern takes on Chinese and Japanese dishes. The Departure Wings are a must order - the chicken is super tender coated in a finger lickin' sauce. And their pork belly buns are delicious - they're almost up there with Momofuku's. Bartenders are great and they make some pretty tasty cocktails. If you're staying at the Nines, come here for a night cap. And the place does pop off during the weekend.

I also had a sip of the banana drop and French 75, which were both tasty. Their menu is a book, and contains almost every martini you can think of. There were so many delicious sounding ones. I'm just glad I don't live in Portland, because I would definitely need a liver transplant.8Connie Pistilli recommended Teardrop LoungeTeardrop, you're so amazing, I just wanna cry.

Their happy hour specials are no joke. ... read moreNo weak ass drinks here, you will get at least 3 shots of alcohol in your glass and be buzzing after spending just $5. Their gin fizz is off the menu, but ask Rickey to make one for you. It is seriously the best looking (and best tasting) gin fizz you will ever have. And don't dismiss the pina colada. It is not your typical tropical blended concoction. They make their own coconut milk and it is fan-freaking-tastic. Oh, and they make their own bitters. They have around 30 or so of them. It's like a science lab behind the bar. If you're DFW (down for whatever), then ask for the bartender's choice. You won't be disappointed with anything they come up with.9Tasty N Sons

The three of us shared two orders of their chocolate donut holes, three bacon wrapped dates, fried egg and cheddar biscuit with fried chicken, Burmese red pork stew with fried egg over rice and polenta & sausage ragu with mozzarella and fried egg. EVERYTHING was to die for. As our server said, there is nothing on the menu that she wouldn't recommend. The portions were perfect - anything more, and we would need to be rolled out of there. The libations looked amazing, but I didn't partake in any. Our bill came out to $41, which was totally reasonable. And did I mention, the space is super cool? Yeah, it's a good thing I don't live here because I would LIVE (and then probably die an early death) at Tasty.10Connie Pistilli recommended BeastBeast beats any brunch I've had in a very long time. It's not very often that I have a meal where I find myself saying "wow" after every bite of every dish, but it happened while having brunch here. ... read moreIt was one of the best dining experiences I have ever had anywhere, including the Bay Area. We were lucky to get reservations for Sunday brunch. There are only two seatings on Sunday (10am & noon) and dinner happens Wed-Sat. Brunch is a $28 (yes, ONLY $28!) four course pre-fixe meal, with no substitutions. So, if you're vegan or vegetarian, this is unfortunately not the place for you. There are only two communal tables which seat about 25 people total and everyone gets served at the same time.

Prior to arriving, their concierge sent me a welcome email and asked if I had any special requests, which I thought was a nice touch. This is great if you're celebrating a special occasion, because they do send you a nice congratulatory treat. The room was stunning, with soothing hues of Tiffany blue, taupe and cream. And the view - it was amazing! Since it was a corner room, there was a panoramic view of the Courthouse and downtown. Try not to get a room that faces inside - your view will be of the restaurant below. The bathroom was so big you could do cartwheels inside. Luxurious bath products from Gilchrist & Soamies were a big plus. And while the bedding was very comfortable, the bed was not a heavenly bed (the Nines is a Starwood property), so that was probably the only gripe I had. Departure, their penthouse Asian Fusion restaurant and open air lounge, is super chic and has amazing happy hour specials. And you'll find a bunch of people dressed to the Nines there late night. Urban Farmer, the hotel's steakhouse is great for dessert and drinks - and I hear the food is superb too. Since the hotel is located at the top of the Historic Meier & Frank Building which also houses Macy's (unfortunately a pretty sad one), it's centrally located downtown. While the MAX light rail is located right outside (free rides within a certain boundary), it was very easy to walk to most destinations. It's only a short taxi ride to the Pearl District or Nob Hill (which is where the cool boutiques are!). Easy access to shopping - hello tax free retail!

Michael Larabel
Linux Kernel
9 Comments
Version 426 of the BFS scheduler was released this weekend for the Linux 3.7 kernel.
"These are patches designed to improve system responsiveness and interactivity with specific emphasis on the desktop, but suitable to any commodity hardware workload." This was the
brief release announcement
by Con Kolivas for the latest version of the Brain Fuck Scheduler. As usual, there's patches in various forms for running BFS 426 against the Linux 3.7.x series.
There's also a few other comments concerning this latest out-of-tree scheduler update on
the Con Kolivas blog
For those who missed it, yesterday
a forked version of BFS was announced
. This new Linux CPU scheduler based upon BFS is trying to implement multiple run-queues in order to provide greater scalability.

Thrustmaster T-Wireless NW Reviews
Product Type: Thrustmaster game controllers
Description:Model ID 4660285 / ThrustMaster T-Wireless NW - Game pad - Nintendo Wii / Today more and more game launches for the Wii are retro hits or golden oldies originally created for the likes of Nintendo NES, Nintendo Super NES, Nintendo, 64 and Nintendo GameCube. Thrustmaster has ... more
Thrustmaster T-Wireless NW ... created a game pad that will allow gamers to use one game pad for multiple genres of games. The T-Wireless NW is the first programmable and vibrating wireless gamepad allowing users to play Virtual Console, GameCube and Wii games on the Wii! It uses 2.4GHz wireless technology which provides a very respectable 10 meters range. Wireless play is the buzz word in gaming today!
The T-Wireless NW is fully programmable thanks to the "Mapping" function which allows users to reassign all buttons, mini-sticks and the D-pad to ensure a truly customized gaming experience. There are also two functions which will really help gamers maximize their gaming experience: "Slow" which allows the player to slow down action and "Turbo" which means the player only needs to press a button to get a power boost rather than making multiple and rapid thumb presses. To top it all off, this gamepad has great ergonomics with a shape that is natural to hold. The rubber coated handles and joysticks ensure superior grip and comfort too.

Customer Thrustmaster T-Wireless NW Reviews (1)
by - written on 21/05/10, updated on 21/05/10 (Very useful, 44 readings)
I wasn't familiar at all with the Thrusmaster brand. I was skeptical because I have never had any luck with 3rd party accessories outside of Logitech products for my PS2. I did some online research, checking various places and saw that the overwhelming majority of customers were very satisfied. This controller is basically your cheaper alternative to the wireless Wavebird controller for GC and Wii. The control has a sleek, clean and simple design. Its white with some wavy blue ridges I guess for better grip. Its pretty small though, so it will take time to adjust to if you're used to the Gamecube controller. The overall design and button layout is identical to ... Read the complete review

A uniqueness proof for monetary steady state
The framework in Lagos and Wright (2005) [20] combining decentralized and centralized markets is used extensively in monetary economics. Much is known about that model, but there is a loose end: only under special assumptions about bargaining power or decentralized market preferences has it been shown that the monetary steady state is unique. For general decentralized market utility and bargaining, I prove uniqueness for generic parameters with fiat money, and for all parameters with commodity money. As a corollary, I get monotone comparative statics.Download Info

Phenylsulfamoyl couplers
Image Number 3 for
United States Patent #T998007
Ballasted primary and secondary 3'-sulfamoyl-1-hydroxy-2-naphthanilide couplers are disclosed as well as compositions and photographic elements containing these couplers in coupler solvent particles. The coupler solvent particles are comprised of a combination of a coupler solvent and the coupler capable of permitting the formation of a microcrystalline dye. Surprisingly these microcrystalline dyes exhibit a broadened absorption characteristic in the 750 to 850 mm region of the spectrum. Dye images having such absorption characteristics are particularly suited to forming integral infrared absorbing sound tracks in photographic elements, such as motion picture projection films.

If you're not sure why we're so over-amped about these images, some background should do the trick. The FanHouse got into the spirit before and prematurely after, and our friends at DC Sports Bog also had the info flowing.
Photos after the jump, along with the most explanation yours truly can offer.
Arenas mural completed just for the occasion. There was apparently another one depicting Arenas's utter dependence on Vitamin Water, but this is by far the prettier of the two. Who knows if it will last past last night. According to Jamie, the paint was still drying when this was taken. Kings of media indeed.
This Arenas ice sculpture was displayed prominently, apprently greeting guests on their way in and out. I have no idea if our FanHouse crew caught this in a stage of advanced meltage, or if all along it depicted Agent Zero as a svelete, handless woman.
Our very own Jamie Mottram with a certain infamous D.C. politican. This has nothing to do with Gilbert Arenas, and I don't think it's proof he's a drug-addled thug. I just thought it was too special a moment to not share with the world.

We hypothesized that neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) is an early predictive biomarker of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). We prospectively enrolled 91 children (age 0–18 years) with congenital heart disease undergoing elective cardiac catheterization and angiography with contrast administration (CC; Ioversol). Serial urine and plasma samples were analyzed in a double-blind fashion by NGAL enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). CIN, defined as a 50% increase in serum creatinine from baseline, was found in 11 subjects (12%), but detection using increase in serum creatinine was only possible 6–24 h after CC. In contrast, significant elevation of NGAL concentrations in urine (135 ± 32 vs. 11.6 ± 2 ng/ml without CIN, p < 0.001) and plasma (151 ± 34 vs. 36 ± 4 without CIN, p < 0.001) were noted within 2 h after CC in those subjects. Using a cutoff value of 100 ng/ml, sensitivity, specificity, and area under the receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve for prediction of CIN were excellent for the 2-h urine NGAL (73%, 100%, and 0.92, respectively) and 2-h plasma NGAL (73%, 100%, and 0.91, respectively). By multivariate analysis, the 2-h NGAL concentrations in the urine (R 2 = 0.52, p < 0.0001) and plasma (R 2 = 0.72, p < 0.0001) were found to be powerful independent predictors of CIN. Patient demographics and contrast volume were not predictive of CIN.

LEGISLATION TRACKER RECENT AND PENDING Date Legislation 3 April 2011 The standard weekly rate of statutory maternity pay (SMP) and the weekly rates of ordinary statutory paternity pay (OSPP), additional statutory paternity pay (ASPP) and statutory adoption pay (SAP) increased from £124.88 to £128.73 per week (or 90% of the person's average weekly earnings if these are less than £128.73). 6 April 2011 The weekly rate of statutory sick pay (SSP) increased from £79.15 to £81.60. The lower earnings limit for qualifying for SSP, SMP, OSPP, ASPP and SAP increased from £97.00 to £102.00 per week. 6 April 2011 The statutory right to request flexible working has been extended to employees who are parents of children under 18 years old. It was previously applicable to parents of children under 17 years old, or under 18 years old if the child is disabled, as well as carers of specified adults. 6 April 2011 Subject to transitional provisions, the statutory default retirement age of 65 has been abolished. The provisions which previously made it non-discriminatory to force someone to retire at 65 (or at the employer's normal retirement age, if higher) and the provisions which made a dismissal for retirement fair, provided the statutory retirement procedure was followed, have also been abolished. Under the transitional provisions, the last date for issuing a notice of intended retirement date under the previous regime was 5 April 2011 and the employer could set the retirement date at any time up to 12 months later, provided six to 12 months' notice of intended retirement was given, the statutory retirement procedure is followed correctly and the employee reaches the age of 65 (or, if higher, the employer's normal retirement age) on or before 30 September 2011. From 6 April 2011 onwards, setting a contractual retirement age and then commencing a procedure to retire an employee who reaches that age has to be objectively justified under direct age discrimination provisions, which will be extremely difficult to do other than in exceptional circumstances. Consistent with removing the default retirement age, from 6 April 2011, it is also no longer lawful to reject a job application simply because the applicant is within six months of reaching age 65 or the normal retirement age. Finally, the Government has also introduced an exception to the age discrimination rules so that employers can stop offering employees insured benefits, such as life assurance and private medical cover, beyond whichever is the greater of 65 and state pension age. 5 June 2011 The Transnational Information and Consultation of Employees (Amendment) Regulations 2010 ('TICE') will come into force. 1 July 2011 The Bribery Act 2010 will come into force. It constitutes significant reform of the criminal law in relation to bribery offences committed by individuals and businesses in the UK and overseas and is one of the strictest pieces of anti- corruption legislation in the world. Most important for employers, it introduces a new strict liability corporate offence of failing to prevent bribery by a person associated with the business, which is V0212 subject only to an 'adequate procedures' defence. This means that, in order to escape a criminal conviction and an unlimited fine, the business must show it had adequate procedures in place designed to prevent individuals who perform services on its behalf (such as employees, agents and subsidiaries) from bribing. 1 October 2011 The Agency Workers Regulations 2010 implement the EU Agency Workers Directive and they will, for the first time, give agency workers the right to equal treatment in relation to pay, holidays and other basic working and employment conditions as directly recruited permanent staff after 12 weeks in a given job. The rights on pay will apply not just to the basic hourly rate but to all pay for work done, including bonuses that are directly related to the performance of the agency worker personally. However, they will not extend to some of the wider benefits that permanent staff can enjoy in the context of their longer-term relationship with their employer, such as occupational pensions and sick pay. In addition, from the first day of their assignment, agency workers will be entitled to: Information about internal vacancies to give them the same opportunity as other workers to find permanent employment. Equal access to on-site facilities such as child care and transport services. Additional rights for new and expectant mothers including reasonable time off to attend ante-natal appointments and adjustments to working conditions and hours. Employment tribunals will have jurisdiction to hear complaints from agency workers who consider their rights under the regulations have been breached or that they have suffered a detriment for asserting their rights under the regulations, subject to a time limit of three months from the date of alleged breach or detriment. To ensure that workers are not deprived of their rights by unscrupulous agencies and employers, the regulations include provisions that deal with repeat assignments designed to prevent workers acquiring equal treatment rights. Agencies and hiring employers face having to pay compensation of up to £5,000 to the worker if an employment tribunal finds that the specific anti-avoidance rules have been breached. 1 October 2011 The National Minimum Wage Regulations 1999 (Amendment) Regulations 2010 have increased the various NMW rates as follows: The adult rate for workers aged 21 and over has increased from £5.93 per hour to £6.08. The rate paid to workers aged 18 to 20 has increased from £4.92 per hour to £4.98. The rate paid to workers aged below 18 who have ceased to be of compulsory school age has increased from £3.64 per hour to £3.68. The per day value of the accommodation amount which is applicable where the employer provides the worker with living accommodation has increased from £4.61 to £4.73 for each day that accommodation is provided. The new rate applicable to apprentices who are under 19, or those aged 19 and over but in the first year of their apprenticeship has increased from £2.50 per hour to £2.60 per hour. October 2011 The Equality Act 2010 (Specific Duties) Regulations 2011 require public bodies to publish information demonstrating compliance with s.149(1) "to have due regard to the need to eliminate discrimination, advance equality of opportunity and foster good relations" by specific dates each year. In particular, Schedule 1 public bodies – by 31 January and Schedule 2 public bodies – by 6 April each year. V0212 The information demonstrating compliance must include information relating to those who share a 'protected characteristic' 1 February 2012 The Employment Rights (Increase of Limits) Order 2011 will come into force from 1 February 2012. The Order has increased the limits applying to certain awards of employment tribunals and to other amounts payable under employment legislation. The main changes are: Maximum amount of a 'week's pay' for the purpose of calculating a redundancy payment or the basic or additional award of compensation for unfair dismissal or payments to employees in the event of insolvency – increased from £400 to £430. Limit on the amount of compensatory award for unfair dismissal – increased from £68,400 to £72,300. Limit on the daily amount of statutory guarantee payment – increased from £22.20 to £23.50. The increases apply where the event giving rise to the entitlement to compensation or other payment occurs on or after 1 February 2011. The date is determined differently depending on the type of claim brought. In unfair dismissal claims, this date is the effective date of termination of employment. In guarantee payment claims, it is the day in respect of which the payment is due. 8 March 2012 The permitted period of unpaid parental leave following the birth or adoption of a child has been increased by an EU Directive from 3 months to 4 months. This has to be implemented by the UK by 8 March 2012. Currently the entitlement is 13 weeks (in addition to statutory maternity, paternity and adoption leave). 6 April 2012 On 3 October 2011 a Department for Business Innovation and Skills (BIS) press release confirmed that the unfair dismissal qualifying period will increase from one to two years with effect from 6 April 2012. We are currently awaiting details as to how these proposals will be implemented and whether or not 'transitional provisions' will be introduced to cover Employees with more than one but less than two years' service. 6 April 2012 The weekly rate of statutory sick pay (SSP) increases from £81.60 to £85.82. The standard rate of statutory maternity, paternity and adoption pay increases from £128.73 to £135.45 per week The lower earnings limit for qualifying for SSP, SMP, OSPP, ASPP and SAP increases from £102.00 to £107.00 per week. October 2012 Pension reforms will require employers to automatically enrol eligible employees onwards into a workplace pension scheme and to provide a minimum contribution. April 2013 The Government has recently announced proposed reforms to the tribunal system including: Requiring the Claimant to make a payment of £250 in order to lodge tribunal claims; Payment by the Claimant of a further £1,000 before the final hearing of a claim; Extending the length of service required to claim unfair dismissal to two years. In the event that the Claimant loses his/her claim, the fees paid to the Tribunal listed above will be forfeit. It is not, however, clear whether such fees will be paid to the Respondent, or if the Tribunal will retain the fees. V0212 It is anticipated that these changes will come into effect from April 2013.

Britney Spears inspired by Justin Timberlake
December 31st, 2013 6:20am EST
Britney Spears is inspired by Justin Timberlake.
The 'Piece of Me' hitmaker praised her former boyfriend - who she dated from 1999 to 2002 - and 'Grenade' hitmaler Bruno Mars for being "different and fresh" and encouraging people to enjoy music more.
She said: "Bruno Mars is so different and fresh, and Justin Timberlake is, too. It's inspiring for me, and it makes people eager to listen to music, which helps everyone."
As well as Justin and Bruno, Britney is also inspired by "genius" Beyoncé and admires the way she released her self-titled new album without warning earlier this month.
She said: "I look up to Beyoncé, what she did with her album was genius, really brilliant."
The 32-year-old singer also talked about her "cool" friend Miley Cyrus - who was in the audience for her debut Las Vegas show last week - admitting she loves spending time with the former 'Hannah Montana' star, with who she shares manager Larry Rudolph.
She told USA Today newspaper: "She's cool, she's fun to be around. You know, she's got really good energy."
Britney laments the way the music industry has changed in favour of downloads and thinks the ritual of purchasing albums on CD is no longer special.
She said: "We're too smart for our own good. We're at the point where the simplicity of buying a CD and the specialness has gone. I think it's a shame. The whole process of buying a record was so special."

Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2014 Dodge Durango
By KBB.com Editors
Despite the growing popularity of crossover utility vehicles, or CUVs, for those with serious towing and hauling needs there are few substitutes for a full-blown, body-on-frame SUV. Among the more notable is the 2009 Dodge Durango, a seven-passenger muscle machine with a rugged and distinctive style, a fairly plush interior and the option of a HEMI V8 under the hood. Although not as large as a Chevrolet Suburban, the Durango has grown large enough to compete head-on with such competitors as the Chevrolet Tahoe and Ford Expedition. Dodge's MDS (Multiple-Displacement System) technology helps save some gas, and a new hybrid-model goes even further. Alternative fuel fans will be sad to learn the 4.7-liter Flex-Fuel V8 has been dropped.
If you need a roomy SUV but the thought of a full-size Suburban turns you off, check out the 2009 Dodge Durango. It offers seating for seven and still has a fair amount of room for cargo behind the third-row seat. Environmentally conscious power freaks will love the optional 5.7-liter HEMI Hybrid.
The Dodge Durango isn't big like a Chevrolet Suburban, but it's still big and thirsty on gas. The Durango's bold styling may not be everyone's cup of tea and may grow old fast.
A new two-mode HEMI Hybrid models joins the line, promising a 25 percent improvement in fuel economy with a 40 percent jump in city driving. The SXT nameplate changes to the SE, while the Adventurer trim is sent wandering off into the sunset.
Driving Impressions On the road, the Durango delivers a noticeably smoother ride than several others in the class. The quiet interior is free from the intrusive wind and tire noise of the...
first generation. The steering is pretty impressive for a vehicle of this size, with good response and feedback that allow the driver to make exact lane changes and easily negotiate tight turns. Power for the base Durango is supplied by a sturdy 3.7-liter V6, with the 4.7-liter Magnum and the mighty 5.7-liter HEMI V8s as options. The base Durango is rear-wheel drive and offers the option of on-demand four-wheel drive but only when equipped with the 4.7-liter V8; V8-powered Durangos have a tow/haul transmission setting that reduces gear searching by remaining in a lower gear for better pulling power.HEMI Engine
The powerful HEMI V8 engine adds less than a thousand dollars to the price tag without a huge penalty in fuel economy.
Optional Heated Cloth Front Seats
Available on the SLT and Adventurer trims, these seats add warmth without having to add expensive leather as well.
The available split-folding third-row seats can be folded flush, and a flip-and-tumble second-row seat greatly aids entry and exit for rear passengers. The handsome dash is clean, simple and easy to use, with controls well within the driver's reach and logically arranged. Low-back rear seats won't block the driver's rearward view and feature headrests that can extend high enough to accommodate the tallest passengers. A nice option is the heated quad bucket seat package available on the Limited trim level.
ExteriorThe 2009 Dodge Durango's styling remains as bold as the first Dodge Durango. The Durango's newest look basically exaggerates the original model's popular styling by enlarging the grille and front headlamps and giving a new look to the rear. Large six-by-nine-inch side mirrors improve driver visibility, while optional 20-inch chrome wheels are sure to increase the Durango's ability to get noticed. Total up all the little changes and the effect is one strikingly imposing vehicle that looks every bit as tough as it claims to be.
The 2009 Dodge Durango SE features a V6 engine, air conditioning, four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes (ABS), rear defroster, power locks, express up/down front window, power mirrors, AM/FM stereo with CD, speed control, side-curtain air bags, Electronic Stability Program, traction control, tilt wheel, fog lights, 17-inch painted wheels and a rear wiper/washer. The SLT trim adds a power driver's seat, 18-inch alloy wheels, 115-volt outlet, MP3-compatible six-disc CD changer, eight Alpine speakers and SIRIUS Satellite Radio. The Limited features a 5.7-liter HEMI V8, 18-inch chrome alloy wheels, power liftgate, leather seats, dual-zone automatic temperature control and ParkSense rear park assist.
Options include a 4.7-liter V8, 5.7-liter HEMI V8 or a 5.7-liter HEMI Hybrid, rear-seat DVD entertainment, six-disc CD/MP3 in-dash changer, uconnect tunes with 30-gigabyte hard drive, leather seats, shift-on-the-fly four-wheel drive, third-row seat, uconnect gps navigation, heated front and rear quad bucket seating, power rear liftgate, ParkSense rear park assist, ParkView rear back-up camera, remote start, electronic transfer case, aluminum wheels, power sun roof, SIRIUS Satellite Radio and power-adjustable pedals.
Although the V6 looks impressive on paper, the Durango's weight makes for slow going with the base engine. The powerful 4.7-liter V8 makes it a better choice for shoppers trying to balance cost with performance. If you can afford an extra $1,000 and want all the performance available, the 5.7-liter HEMI V8 is the way to go.

"I bought this truck used. I bought this truck knowing it had a hemi. So I wasn't surprised with the fuel economy like some of the people on here. An awesome truck! If driven soft, can get 21 mpg. Hard driving will give you closer to 14 mpg. Lots of power when needed. Lots of space. Great feel when driven. Sound very tough when just barely touching the gas. If you want good fuel economy, don't get this truck. If don't mind paying the extra amount to fill it up, one HECK of a truck!"

"I bought this car new in 2004. I have always had a 30 to 40 minute commute to work and back. I put 227,500 miles on it so far. I broke down one time only, because of a bad water pump. Other than that I had no flats, or mechanical problems, until now. It is old and tired, and it has served me well. I feel like I am losing an old friend. My kids are grown, and I am downsizing."

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 80,000
overall rating 9 of 10rating detailsPros: "Power, interior size/seating, decent gas mileage"
Cons: "Ride, handling in snow (4x2)"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10
"I traded my 2003 Durango in to buy my 2004 Durango new and have loved every minute of owning it. It has loads of cargo space. I've moved my entire house twice using only my Durango. With the Hemi, this thing has plenty of power; however, that power is a downfall in snow. I've had only one real issue with the truck and that was the power steering system, but that appears to have been resolved. I drove the truck for 5 years in South Korea and learned that even as big as it is, it can go down some seriously small roads without any problem. Visibility is good, ride could be better, but it's overall a lot of fun to drive."

overall rating 10 of 10rating detailsPros: "reliable, comfortable, powerful, great 4 off road"
Cons: "bad on gas."
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10
"I know most people would not think of the Durango as an off road vehicle. But I lifted mine 4 inches. I also added some 20x12.5 in rims on 33s off road tires. Guessing that added to the poor gas mileage. But with just the K&N intake and straight dual Magnaflow exhaust the Durango feels Powerful and was great on gas, again till i added the big heavy rims. But i have to say some of my most fun moments the Durango has taken me there, and the Arizona trails such as Chiva Falls have been a blast to drive through. My Durango is 10k short of 200000 and still runs like a champ. I truly believe that with regular maintenance my Durango will get me to 300k without any problems as it has been since i got it."

AlN/SiO2 nanomultilayers with different SiO2 thicknesses were synthesized by reactive magnetron sputtering. X-ray diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy were used to characterize the microstructure, and nanoindentation technology was used to measure the mechanical properties of the multilayers. The crystallization of SiO2 as well as its influences on the growth and mechanical properties of the multilayers was studied. Results showed that due to the template effects of hcp AlN, amorphous SiO2 was forced to crystallize to a hcp pseudocrystal structure when its thickness was below 0.6 nm. The SiO2 epitaxially grew with AlN in the multilayer with coherent interfaces. At this time, a tensile and compressive alternate stress field was developed corresponding to the modulation structure. The hardness of the multilayers was enhanced as a result. Calculation revealed that alternate stress field played an important role in multilayers' reinforcement. As thickness increases, SiO2 grew into amorphous again, resulting in the blockade of epitaxial growth in the multilayers and disappearing of the hardness enhancement.

Chinese home-appliance maker Qingdao Haier Co. improved its compensation offer to Class A shareholders affected by its share-reform plan, according to a notice published in the China Securities Journal. Haier Group, which holds 12 percent in the listed company, is offering more put warrants to Qingdao Haier's Class A shareholders, and will allow those who receive warrants to sell Qingdao Haier's Class A shares back to Haier Group at a higher price, the notice said. Under the revised plan, Haier's Class A shareholders will receive nine put warrants for every 10 tradable shares, and each warrant allows the holder to sell one share back to Haier Group at 4.39 yuan (approx. U.S. $0.55) at the end of a 12-month listing period. This is more generous than the original plan, under which Qingdao Haier's Class A shareholders would have received five put warrants for every 10 tradable shares. (The Wall Street Journal)

a tasty little food blog
Your photos are all beautiful and would make a lovely set of notecards. I have to say I absolutely ADORE the one of the momma robin feeding her babies. I would love to have that one in a frame. Gorgeous.
It was great to discover your blog. I'm going to come back and check out the food that is tempting me on your sidebar.
These are GORGEOUS, Pat & would make spectacular note cards!! I love the clear, crisp shots you get, both of food & otherwise. I keep practicing & do appreciate all the tips you've shared over the years.
This is my first time participating in Vee's Note Card party but hopefully not my last.
Gee, difficult to choose. They are all beautiful. Each made me smile. Thanks.

Researcher Karin Mack of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta said men are still more likely to die from painkiller overdoses but women are catching up fast.
"Mothers, wives, sisters and daughters are dying from these overdoses at rates never seen before," Mack said in a statement. "Prescription painkiller overdose deaths increased five-fold among women between 1999 and 2010."
Previous research showed U.S. women were more likely than men to have chronic pain, to get painkillers at higher doses and to use them for longer periods.
The study was published in the CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

Charlottenhof Palace : Michelin's recommendations
The purchase of this land in 1825 enabled the royal family to extend Sanssouci Park. Peter Josef Lenné, one of Germany's most talented landscape gardeners, turned it into a magnificent English park complete with lawn and shrubberies. The sophisticated small neo-Classical castle was the summer residence of the future Friedrich Wilhelm IV. Classical Italian-style paintings adorn the interior, while coloured glass windows immerse the immense hall in permanent shadow. The dining room and the bedchamber are not to be missed.
