Thread: Wax?
Best Wax
I spend plenty of time prepping two vehicles for car shows. The vehicles aren't paritcularly spectacular or collectable...1988 Chevy Silverado (brought back from the grave) and a 2008 Mustang Bullitt (I buy American as a priority!) I have used McGuires and other clay bars and can't say they help much unless you have a dirty car that sits outside most of the time. I find that multiple coats of McGuires or Mothers wax will prevent dirt, bird poop, and other stains from penetrating to the paint. A slick wax job with one of these products will most assuredly give you the best protection and appearance.
08-25-2009, 12:16 PM #22You have not used a very aggressive clay bar, that may be why you feel you are not achieving the results you want. Meguiars (and others) makes a professional series that is much more aggressive than the standard clays, no amount or type of wax will prevent contaminants from reaching the paint (clear coat) remember clay shears off the contaminants and leaves the surface clean for the application of wax any doubt clay works rub your fingers across the paint and see if it feels rough after clay it will be slick as glass.
Fast is fine, accuracy is final.

You could be right and I may not know exactly how to use it. I used McGuires pro claybar along with my McGuires detailer spray for lubrication. Is that how you use it?
08-25-2009, 12:37 PM #24If you are using the pro series it is very aggressive and will remove wax from the paint there is no special way to clay up and down circles whatever you want to do any one of the detailers will work they keep the clay lubricated just dont use water or soap as a lubricant I do detail work from my home alot depends on the condition of the paint you are starting with, keep up the good work!

I have to agree with "Nickgiacalone",
I use Mequiars NXT Wax, but I use Mothers Clay bar before hand, and if the lower part of the vehicle is really bad (road tar) i will wash it down with a wax and grease remover first, this will help save on the clay bar.
I have use many different brands and have always gone back to Meguiars for my wax products.Rick

08-25-2009, 10:08 PM #27Dont wax your Truck ZAINO it. lol im suprised no one has mentioned it yet on here. The stuff is pretty pricey but if you love your truck and i mean really love your truck its the way to go. I never used it but all my friends from the INC car club use it and that stuff shines like crazy. And they go on and on about how easy it is. I want to buy some just never get around to it. Meguiars clay bar is really good i use it for my impala and am 80 percent happy with it but it doesnt cover the swirl marks and scrathes like i would like. That Zaino makes any paint look good. But from what I read here i am going to try that ICE tommorow on my truck stay tuned. . . .
A clay bar will not remove swirls! or scratches. Swirls are generally caused from washing and drying with a dirty towel or using the whirly car washes. You can somewhat remove swirls by hand but they really need to be machine polished to get them out, there is alot of discussion about wax but first you have to get rid of the imperfections, use the least aggressive polisher then a wax, also remember with waxes the carnuba ones only provide protection for a few weeks. I use the Meguiars NXT products alot because it is a synthetic and can provide up to 6 months of protection and shine if the vehicle is garaged. But I also use carnuba Poorboys wax just depends what people want. I have found the synthetic waxes do provide a very deep shine and are easy to remove.
Keep polishing

I have been detailing on the side since 1995 and this is the best line of products I have ever used ! I have tried alot but these are by far the best as they save time which is money and you can detail literaly anywhere! Check out www.dwgint.com if you have any questions PM me and I will get you hooked up!Be Blessed
08-27-2009, 04:31 PM #30My sentiments exacly. Don't WAX, use a POLYMER. It last longer, shines deeper, and protects better. I've tried most things and moved on to Zaino. The first setup takes some effort. Then it is maintenance after. The cost is actually not as bad as you think. I bought a $90 kit that has everything. Clay bar, 3 types of polishes, car wash, leather cleaner, conditiioner, tire shine, excelerator, polishing pads. I've done my Vette, my wife's Monte, now the truck and have plenty left. You don't have to reapply but every 3-6 months. Just use their car wash and spritzer to maintain it. Or throw on a quick coat of it once in a while. You are supposed to spread that stuff thin, and I mean thin. I expect it to last me about 3 years for at least 3 vehicles. That's cheap. The shine is amazing. Go look in the Chevy Corvette section or my garage. I posted pics of my Z06. That is a Zaino shine.

- Great Product Review by myra
Your Rating Product Four Paws XL 210 pk Wee Wee Pads I have tried mostly every brand of wee wee pad out there these are the best they hold the liquid and it stay in one spot and does not spread all over the paper it also control odor. The pads do not slide on the carpet or on a wood or laminate floor. I have a Basset Hound who is a year old and I really think he as a bladder the size of a thimble cause even after he is out and has done his business not 10 minutes later he pees again. I use the xtra lrg. pads I place 4 of them together in a square to give him plenty of room to go because since being a Basset he likes to sniff and circle A LOT till he finds the spot he want to go on. He is very particular and these seem to do the best job of any brand I have tried and I believe I have tried them all. (Posted on 3/4/14)
- Worth the money at any price Review by nana
Your Rating Product Four Paws XL 210 pk Wee Wee Pads I have tried several different brands of wee wee pads even value brands own and nothing can compare to the 4 paws brand they have the best quilting on them and the absorbency is the greatest. Plus and this makes a big difference they don't slip all over the floor when the dog walks on them whether the floor is tile, wood, or carpet. True they are a little pricey but the aggravation that I have had with the cheaper or different brands can not be compared for what the 4 paws gives you.
So I bite the bullet and always order them as they do the job THE VERY BEST!!!! (Posted on 2/26/14) - Excellent Review by KathyCap

- great Review by NANA
Your Rating Product Four Paws XL 168 pk Wee Wee Pads (8x21pk) 4 paws wee wee pad are wonderful the plastic backing is very strong and they do not slide on the floor wether it is carpet or wood floors. Plus they are quilted which does not make the liquid spread. All in all a great value. Did not like the Great value pads as much as the 4 paws pad. Great Value need to have their pad quilted which would help a lot. (Posted on 1/22/14)

Your Rating Product Four Paws XL 168 pk Wee Wee Pads (8x21pk) I have purchased this item individually, yes the price for each pack is pricey. I dont mind to pay the price if the item works. I'm glad I found Value pet supplies, I recently brought 8bags of the XL wee wee pads as a bulk item and the price is reasonable. Value Pet Supply will definately get a future order from me!

text: Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) is the most common vaginal infection among women of childbearing age � in fact twice as common, by some estimates, as vaginal yeast infection. The easiest way for a woman to differentiate Bacterial Vaginosis from yeast infection is the presence or lack of vaginal odor. BV infections typically produces unpleasant, potentially embarrassing odor while yeast infections are usually odor free.

Post-it note
Logo of the brand
Product type | Stationery, paper |
Owner | 3M |
Country | Cynthiana, Kentucky, U.S. |
Introduced | 1980 |
Website | 3m.com |
A Post-it note (or Sticky Note) is a piece of paper stationery with a re-adherable strip of adhesive on the back, designed for temporarily attaching notes to documents and other surfaces. Although now available in a wide range of colors, shapes, and sizes, Post-it notes are most commonly a 3-inch (76 mm) square, canary yellow in color. A unique low-tack adhesive allows the notes to be easily attached and removed without leaving residue.
Post-it notes were invented by 3M's Art Fry, using an adhesive developed by a colleague, Spencer Silver. Until the 1990s, when the patent expired, they were produced only in the 3M plant in Cynthiana, Kentucky. Although other companies now produce sticky or repositionable notes, most of the world's Post-it Brand notes are still made in Cynthiana.
The term "Post-it" and the canary yellow color are registered trademarks of 3M. "Sticky Note", likewise, is a trademark of Société Bic. Generic terms for competitors include "repositionable notes" and "repositional notes". To take advantage of the success of the brand, 3M manufactures other products related to the Post-it concept.
In 1968, Dr. Spencer Silver, a scientist at 3M in the United States, was attempting to develop a super-strong adhesive, but instead he accidentally created a "low-tack", reusable, pressure-sensitive adhesive[1][2] that has been characterized as "a solution without a problem".[3] For five years, Silver promoted his invention within 3M, both informally and through seminars, but without much success. In 1974, a colleague of his, Art Fry, who had attended one of Silver's seminars, came up with the idea of using the adhesive to anchor his bookmark in his hymnbook.[4][5] Fry then developed the idea by taking advantage of 3M's officially sanctioned "permitted bootlegging" policy.[5] 3M launched the product in stores in 1977 in four cities under the name "Press 'n Peel", but its results were disappointing.[6][7] A year later, in 1978, 3M issued free samples to residents of Boise, Idaho, and 94 percent of the people who tried them said that they would buy the product.[6] On April 6, 1980, the product debuted in US stores as "Post-It Notes".[8] In 1981, Post-its were launched in Canada and Europe.[9]
In 2003, the company came out with Post-it Brand Super Sticky notes, with a stronger glue that adheres better to vertical and non-smooth surfaces.[10]
Standard Post-it Brand notes have only partial adhesive coating on the back, along one edge. Similar products are used for specialized purposes with full adhesive coating; the US Post Office uses such yellow address labels to forward mail.
The yellow color was chosen by accident; a lab next-door to the Post-it team only had scrap yellow paper, which the team initially used.[11]
Use in art[edit]
"The Yellow Stickee Diary of a Mad Secretary", by Rosa Maria Arenas, is the mini graphic journal of an office worker/artist, exhibited July 7 - August 25, 2013, at the Michigan Institute of Contemporary Art (MICA) Gallery in Lansing, Michigan. The 41 drawings displayed are a tiny percentage of the more than 2000 original drawings that constitute the Yellow Stickee Diary Project which Arenas created while working temp jobs from 1994 to 2005. Printed with archival inks on archival paper, the reproductions include "stickee sized" (3" x 5") framed prints and enlargements of the original drawings (which were all done on post-it notes).[12]
In 2012, Turkish artist Ardan Özmenoglu was selected to have a solo exhibition at Bertrand Delacroix Gallery in the art district of Chelsea, Manhattan. The exhibition, titled "E Pluribus Unum" (Latin for "Out of many, one"), opened November 15, 2012 and featured large scale works on Post-it notes.[13]
In 2004, Paola Antonelli, a curator of architecture and design, included Post-it notes in a show entitled "Humble Masterpieces".
Rebecca Murtaugh, a California artist who uses Post-it notes in her artwork, in 2001 created an installation by covering her whole bedroom with $1000 worth of the notes, using the ordinary yellow for objects she saw as having less value and neon colors for more important objects, such as the bed.[10]
In 2000 the 20th anniversary of Post-it notes was celebrated by having artists create artworks on the notes. One such work, by the artist R. B. Kitaj, sold for £640 in an auction, making it the most valuable Post-it note on record.[14]
Use in technology[edit]
Analogues of Post-it notes have also been used in technology in the form of desktop notes which are computer applications developed to allow users to put virtual notes on their computer desktop. These computerized versions of Post-it notes include 3M's own "Post-it Brand Software Notes", "Stickies" in Mac OS, "Sticky Notes" in Windows,[15] or other non-free applications like ShixxNOTE.[16] Additionally, some web applications have developed Post-it sort notes for online use.

I have always liked taking photographs as far back as I can remember So when I Attended University of Alaska I took the opportunity to take several photography classes while earning my associate's degree in business. My passion for photography grew even more and now I spend almost all my time with it.
Currently I use an Olympus E 410 /10 megapixel digital cameras and a Cannon EOS ELAN for film photography.
Although I took photography classes, nothing can teach me as well as teaching myself by reading, practice, and hard work. I am getting better every day and I will continue to get better every day until the day I die.
My motto is, the learning never stops.

The Way of the Knife: The CIA, a Secret Army, and a War at the Ends of the Earth. By Mark Mazzetti. The Penguin Press, 293 pages, $29.95, hardcover.
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- In 1947, the Central Intelligence Agency was created to inform and warn presidents and other top policy makers about the forces and dynamics shaping world events. CIA operatives focused on gathering information, usually secretly, about local disruptions, popular movements around the globe and the likelihood of foreign leaders staying in power.On occasion, the CIA helped promote the overthrow of democratically elected leaders, such as Mohammed Mossedgh in Iran in 1953, Patrice Lumumba in the Congo in 1960 and Salvador Allende in Chile in 1973.
But things have changed. After 9/11, Congress allowed "global war" efforts.
Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama shifted the CIA's top priority from "gathering intelligence on foreign governments" to "man hunting." The agency became a secret machine to locate and kill "terrorists."
This is the central theme of "The Way of the Knife: The CIA, a Secret Army, and a War at the Ends of the Earth," a new book by Mark Mazzetti, one of the nation's leading national security reporters, who writes for "The New York Times."
Today, the CIA and Pentagon both use higher levels of clandestine violence. The government also employs far more private military contractors than ever before.
American intelligence operations, meanwhile, have come to rely more on unstable dictators and questionable foreign intelligence agencies. There is only minimal oversight over defense, especially for secret intelligence operations and private military contractors, or PMCs.
"Congress had approved billions for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, but there was little Congressional oversight about how the money was spent," Mazzetti writes.
After 9/11, the United States fought two major wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The nation also fought a third war -- a secret war in the shadows in places like Yemen, Somalia and Pakistan.
But in a region of the world defined by incredibly complex political relationships, the CIA seemed oblivious and unable to predict major developments.
"Like a desert sandstorm," Mazzetti writes, "the popular revolts spreading across the states of North Africa were in the process of burying decades of authoritarianism."
But the CIA had no idea, Mazzetti points out, about major revolts that would erupt in countries like Tunisia, Libya, Egypt and Morocco.
"It was the first mass uprising of the social-media age."
New war zones
During the first year of Obama's presidency, the U.S. Central Command issued a sweeping directive -- the Joint Unconventional Warfare Task Force Executive Order -- as part of a broad initiative "to define the role of the American military in countries beyond declared war zones. ...
"Special-operations officers now had even broader authorities to run spying missions across the globe. These orders became a new blueprint for the secret wars that President Obama would come to embrace," Mazzetti writes.
Under Obama, the White House developed a centralized "kill list," that went beyond "declared war zones."
Critics have not been received warmly.

As I have an S6 on order, can't wait to see what you guys have in store for this one!!! 540-560 bhp and 600-650 nm sounds like good numbers to me!!! I have the utmost faith in you guys!!!
Picked up my s6 last week cannot wait to get an extra 100 hp easy
stupid easy mods for this engine. Huge power potential. The real question is how much torque can the drivetrain take. The twin clutch tranny is not as hardy as you might believe and a rebuild will be $$$$$$$$$. Does anyone have true specs about the limits for torque on the S tranny???
Any new development? Anxiously awaiting to see what you guys do with the S6/S7. Can you give us an update on APR's progress?
One way to get a hint at the torque specs of the S-tronic (and R-tronic) trannies on the S7 (and S8) is to see what ABT and MTM have done with their conversions. MTM hasn't released their kits yet, but ABT's advertises the following numbers, stock setup-to-ABT tuning:
S7: 420HP/550Nm(405lb-ft)-to-540HP/680Nm(500lb-ft). Gains of 120HP/130Nm(95lb-ft).
S8: 520HP/650Nm(480lb-ft)-to-640HP/780Nm(575lb-ft). Gains of 120HP/130Nm(95lb-ft).
There might be more power and torque on the table, especially with mods. to the S7 intake which is more restrictive than the S8's, but north of 700Nm might be pushing it on the S7 S-tronic....
I was curious if there are any new updates to the upgrades for the S6/S7. I realize that you may be busy preparing for new race season Rolex-24 et al but about to take delivery of a new S6. Thanks for any new news!!

Today is the last day for Longboat Key Fire-Rescue Chief Julius Halas, who signs off after 10 years of service as the town's fire chief. Halas, who will serve as director of the state fire marshal's office, starts his new job later this month.
Halas was sent off with a large carrot cake at the north fire station at noon Friday, May 1. More than 30 firefighters and town staff attended the get-together and wished Halas well.
Halas, who got choked up while reading cards from his fellow employees, set aside the cards to spend time with his co-workers and friends.
"I will read these all later so I won't become a mess," Halas said. "I've enjoyed every minute of it here though, I really have."
Town Manager Bruce St. Denis appointed former Sanibel Fire-Rescue Chief Richard A. Dickerson to replace Halas.
Dickerson, whose first official start day was April 27, has 27 years of public-safety experience, beginning as a paramedic in Lee County before moving on to Sanibel as a paramedic and, later, fire chief from 2000 to 2007.
Dickerson was the incident commander for Sanibel and Captiva Island during hurricanes Charley in 2004 and Wilma in 2005.

Hopefully it's done soon
Looking forward to upgrade! Glad that ios6 is, indeed, jailbreakable.
It says 80% now. lol
Edit: Nvm forgot to hit refresh xD
I have doubts that it will come out today though
But the calendars on the devices on the evasi0n home page still point to today's date
Today tomorrow middle of the week don't matter. I would like to git it with everything running good with no problems.
Thxs for releasing to us and % completion is really killing me, it's best when you waiting and you didn't know when it will be out😔😂
its 16.35 where i live. i dont see it getting released before i go to work tomorrow....GUTTED
Wow, that's a lot of work. I hope they get a lot of donations for their troubles. At this point you'd think that they'd at least get a payout from Saurik, seeing how he makes a lot of money off the jailbreak.
I haven't owned a jailbroken iDevice since 2008, so I'm getting really excited about this. Lots of people going to get my business on Cydia after this gets released that's for sure.
What if they released the jailbreak on kick off of the Super Bowl... That'd actually be pretty cool IMO
the calendars do say 3, only it's actually Wednesday 3, and the next Wednesday 3 is on April.
TetherMe supports iOS 6.
Agreed! It was looking pretty Grim for a while...
Wish this worked for atv3 as well... But hey, beggars can't be choosers I guess. lol
The TetherMe devs say it's compatible with iOS 6, but there's a limit to Wifi support on certain devices.
It's probably never yet been tested on an iPhone 5. Please be a good little guinea pig and let us know :-)
90% ... 94%... 97%... 98%... 99%...

When it comes to entertaining, I often find that the casual gatherings and impromptu parties outshine more elaborate affairs. I think it's the combination of a relaxed atmosphere and last minute inspiration.
This summer, for example, I was visiting friends when one of the hosts spontaneously began making homemade crackers from corn and flour tortillas. It wasn't planned, but it was delicious. They were positively addictive and I've since started making them myself.
The best thing about these crackers is that they require almost zero prep, and can be seasoned however you like - a simple sprinkle of coarse sea salt, or a more complex blend of seeds and spices. My favorite is pink Himalayan sea salt and dehydrated minced garlic. It's like the best part of an everything bagel.
These crackers also cook so quickly, you even could make them fresh just before - or even during - the party.
And if you really want to put people over the edge, consider pairing the crackers with homemade ricotta cheese dip. I recently took a cheese making class in California and fell in love with the process. It was an artisanal cheese class and we used "just milked" raw cow's milk and various starters.
You'll need no special ingredients or equipment to make this treat, which relies on slightly acidic buttermilk to form cheese out of a blend of heavy cream and whole milk. Add a touch of salt and that's all you need.
Once the cheese is strained and cooled, I put it in a pretty bowl, add a sprinkle of good salt, best quality extra-virgin olive oil, fresh herbs and citrus zest. You can customize it and add your favorite herbs, or take a sweet approach and add a little jam and country ham or prosciutto. Delicious.
Once you make these crackers and the cheese a few times, you won't even need the recipes. They really are that easy. And they may well become your go-to entertaining recipes for 2013.
Start to finish: 2 hours
Servings: 12
3 cups whole milk
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
To serve:


text: Be careful with the wheat extract in the hefe. The hot break (foaming up when it initially reaches boiling temps) can be intense. Also if you're doing partial boils (2.5-3 gallon boils, then adding extra water in the fermenter) add half the extract at the beginning, and the rest when there is 10-20 minutes left. It will prevent caramelization of the wort, which will keep the beer lighter in color and prevent off flavors. It also helps you get more out of your hops.

Agency Spotlight: Making Mobile Government a Reality
Posted byon May 23, 2013 at 12:40 PM ESTAt the May 2012 launch of the President's Digital Government Strategy, only 35% of U.S. adults owned a smartphone. Today, on the one year anniversary of the Strategy, that number is nearly 50%.
To keep pace with the rapid adoption of mobile devices and the breakneck speed of mobile innovation, President Obama charged agencies with releasing flagship mobile services and making data available in developer-friendly formats to accelerate the production of services and mobile applications.
Twelve months after the President's call for change, there has been great progress bringing mobile government to citizens' fingertips. Today, on the one-year anniversary of the Digital Government Strategy, agencies are announcing the release of hundreds of new mobile services, datasets, and APIs, providing unprecedented public access to government data.
Recreational boaters gearing up for a summer of fun on coastal waters and the Great Lakes can use the MyNOAACharts App to identify their location on freely available nautical charts. Students and parents can use the StudentAid.gov App to access straightforward and easy-to-understand information about planning and paying for college. Family members visiting the Arlington National Cemetery can use the new ANC Explorer App to locate individual gravesites or other points of interest. And Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients or their representatives can use the SSI Mobile Wage Reporter App to report monthly wages to Social Security from the convenience of their smartphone.
Beyond this growing array of apps, major Federal websites, including www.medicare.gov, www.socialsecurity.gov, and www.faa.gov have been mobile-optimized. Citizens can now use their mobile devices to find or submit useful information from the road. They can report traveler complaints through TSA's TRIP form, determine the cleanliness of nearby waterways with EPA's How's My Waterway site, or find the nearest Alternative Fuel Station using the Department of Energy's Alternative Fuel Stations Mobile Locator. The list of mobile services is growing every day.
Learn more about Innovations, TechnologyIntroducing: Project Open Data
Posted byon May 16, 2013 at 8:46 AM ESTTechnology evolves rapidly, and it can be challenging for policy and its implementation to evolve at the same pace. Last week, President Obama launched the Administration's new Open Data Policy and Executive Order aimed at ensuring that data released by the government will be as accessible and useful as possible. To make sure this tech-focused policy can keep up with the speed of innovation, we created Project Open Data.
Project Open Data is an online, public repository intended to foster collaboration and promote the continual improvement of the Open Data Policy. We wanted to foster a culture change in government where we embrace collaboration and where anyone can help us make open data work better. The project is published on GitHub, an open source platform that allows communities of developers to collaboratively share and enhance code. The resources and plug-and-play tools in Project Open Data can help accelerate the adoption of open data practices. For example, one tool instantly converts spreadsheets and databases into APIs for easier consumption by developers. The idea is that anyone, from Federal agencies to state and local governments to private citizens, can freely use and adapt these open source tools—and that's exactly what's happening.
Within the first 24 hours after Project Open Data was published, more than two dozen contributions (or "pull requests" in GitHub speak) were submitted by the public. The submissions included everything from fixing broken links, to providing policy suggestions, to contributing new code and tools. One pull request even included new code that translates geographic data from locked formats into open data that is freely available for use by anyone.
These steps may seem small, but they represent a big shift. Behind these actions is recognition of the simple fact that, as a community, we can do more together than we can alone. Project Open Data leverages the ingenuity of innovators everywhere as partners to help the country realize the full benefit of open data.

Posted byon May 15, 2013 at 3:26 PM ESTWinners of the National Eye Institute Audacious Goals Challenge. (Photo by the National Institutes of Health)
To encourage the broadest possible range of ideas and participants in this Initiative, the NEI held a prize competition to identify "Audacious Goals in Vision Research and Blindness Rehabilitation," open to submissions from August through November 2012. The winners were invited to present their ideas in February at an NEI Audacious Goals Development Meeting—a gathering of more than 200 researchers and experts working to develop a set of bold goals that will guide vision research priorities for the NEI and other organizations going forward.
NEI's approach makes good sense. Well-designed incentive prizes can harness the diverse expertise and perspectives of people who are not typically involved in a particular field. That's why, with more than 250 prizes offered by more than 50 Federal agencies so far on Challenge.gov, incentive prizes are now a standard tool in every Federal agency's toolbox to spur innovation and solve tough problems.
In addition, Grand Challenges like the audacious goals NEI plans to set forth are important elements of President Obama's Strategy for American Innovation. In fact, just last month, the President called on companies, research universities, foundations, and philanthropists to join with him in identifying and pursuing Grand Challenges of the 21st century.
Below, Dr. Paul Sieving, director of the NEI at the National Institutes of Health, answers questions about the NEI Audacious Goals Initiative.

Posted byon May 15, 2013 at 9:00 AM ESTAmerica's small information technology firms are some of the most innovative in the world. They are nimble, creative and can get the job done. And thanks to a new online government platform, it is getting easier for them to address some of the Federal Government's most pressing IT needs. It's a win-win: Small technology companies get easier access to the Federal Government's nearly $77 billion information technology supply chain, providing a potentially critical revenue stream as they build their operations. And government agencies get to work with innovative small firms with solutions that can help make government agencies more efficient and streamlined.
The catalyst for these connections is an exciting new pilot project called RFP-EZ. And the results we are seeing from this program highlight what is possible when you unleash the power of American entrepreneurs.
RFP-EZ is a new and easy way for companies to learn about and compete for government contracts – in particular, small companies that lack the experience or administrative support generally needed to take full advantage of the Government's Request for Proposals (RFP) process, the means by which many government contract offerings are presented to the business community. The RFP-EZ platform was developed jointly by Federal innovators working in the SBA and private-sector entrepreneurs serving temporary stints in the Federal Government through the Presidential Innovation Fellows program, launched by the U.S Chief Technology Officer and Chief Information Officer team last year. Sharing their private- and public-sector insights, the team developed RFP-EZ as a simplified platform aimed at opening up the Government marketplace to a wider range of companies and saving taxpayer money.
Applying agile development principles, the Fellows team designed RFP-EZ over a six-month period, publishing the platform's code openly on GitHub. The team then launched the pilot by posting five relatively simple website development and database contract offerings, four of which were also announced via the standard government portal, FedBizOps. On a per-project basis, bids received through RFP-EZ were consistently lower than those received through FedBizOps—19% to 41% lower, and over 30% lower on average. Bids made through RFP-EZ also showed less overall variation. In addition, during the pilot period, RFP-EZ attracted more than 270 businesses that until now had never approached the world of Federal contracting.

On May 16th, the White House is kicking off "We the Geeks," a new series of Google+ Hangouts to highlight the future of science, technology, and innovation here in the United States. Topics such as commercial space exploration, science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education, turning science fiction to science fact, and others will be discussed with Administration officials and key private sector contributors.
The first "We the Geeks" Hangout will focus on Grand Challenges, ambitious goals on a national or global scale that capture the imagination and demand advances in innovation and breakthroughs in science and technology. Grand Challenges are an important element of President Obama's Strategy for American Innovation. On April 2nd, the President called on companies, research universities, foundations, and philanthropists to join with him in identifying and pursuing the Grand Challenges of the 21st century.
Recap: A Big Day for Open Data
Posted byon May 10, 2013 at 3:50 PM ESTYesterday, President Obama visited Austin, Texas, to kick off his Middle Class Jobs and Opportunity Tour. At Capital Factory, a local start-up incubator, he met with technology entrepreneurs and innovative companies that are helping grow our economy and create jobs by building new products and services.
One of those companies, Stormpulse, uses freely available government weather data to help businesses protect themselves and their assets from potentially hazardous weather. Stormpulse CEO Matt Wensing has said that "open government data is one of the giants on whose shoulders we stand. Easier access to government data means growing companies like ours can offer significant value to citizens and enterprises."

Gant Liquid's scent is clean and strong but not overpowering. Its versatile scent can be worn any time of day and for any occasion. The unique scent projects confidence to the one whom wears it and attraction from the people around him. It's common for women to compliment me on how "amazing" I smell and they go out of there way to smell my neck. Liquid is attraction in a bottle.

please change the smell !!!
By ashleyzay
from bloomfield, mi
This product sounded like it would be nice from all the other reviews, and the item description. However, i do not like this product at all, if you have combination skin it is definetly not for you, the product moistureizes well but theres like a thick greasy film that is left behind, and the worst part omg the smell, wow its so so disgusting.

Thank G-D: my uneven skin start showing improvement!I'm on my second jar, and also using the Alpha-Arbutin lotion and White Sunscreen , and the results are impressing.I almost gave up on the chance that the sun damage and acne leftovers will ever disappear, but this one does the job.All you need is lots of patience, consistency, and persistence - change will come :-)

By Oakley

About Me Budget Buyer
Though this cream is pricey, very little is needed to do the job, and that job is super moisturization and skin brightening. I use it only at night. I replaced another night cream and wasn't thinking too much about it until about a month later, when I noticed that my clear but slightly ruddy skin was clear and luminesce. I always wiped any excess cream on the back of my hands, and I noticed the age spots there had decreased as well. Powerful stuff.
The best of the best
By Shopping weasel
from Colorado
I used this product years ago and assumed other versions would work as well. Not so. I tried major label brands, including some at twice the price. There was little to no improvement in my skin tone, and many had medicinal smells and greasy texture.. I returned to Alpha Arbutin White Cream and in one month uneven, sun discolored spots are almost invisible. Plus the texture, absorption and feel are so delightful it's a pleasure to use.
Rich but not heavy or greasy.
By Susan
from Clearwater, FL
Love this product as I can use it either in the morning after my shower or just before I go to bed, it helps me keep my routine simple. I live in Florida and it's not too heavy for our heat, just perfect!

didn't see results
By syl
from Albuquerque, NM
This cream worked fine for moisturizing, but I gave it only 2 stars because I'm comparing it to other DHC moisturizers. I tried this one in the hopes that it would minimize dark spots as stated and now that I've used the entire jar, it's done no such thing...so don't bother. Try the CoQ10 cream or lotion instead, or the silver platinum cream.

Hillary Clinton is taking pains to make sure all Nevadans know her views on — gasp! — an environmental issue: She would stop plans to store nuclear waste at the state's Yucca Mountain repository. "This is not just, 'We're in Nevada, so we'll talk about an issue Nevadans care about,'" Clinton assured voters. "This is an American issue." Yucca Mountain was discussed in Nevada's recent Democratic debate; Clinton is running a radio ad in the state telling listeners that Barack Obama, who has also pledged to close Yucca Mountain, is less committed to closing the site than she is. In response, long-time anti-Yucca activist and Obama supporter Bob Fulkerson tells reporters that it is "completely ludicrous and disingenuous to suggest that Barack Obama has somehow been soft on Yucca Mountain."

A thanks to the creator of the canquest, woodychandler, for this beer. Poured from a 16 oz. can. Has a cloudy, medium brown color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of malts, spices, some sweetness. Taste is good, malty, spicey, a touch of hops, balanced and flavorful. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a high quality beer.

T-Similar to the nose, caramel and earthy. Nice hop presence and some bitterness.

3.79/5 rDev -7.3%
look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.75
Poured from a bottle like the one pictured here into an American pub glass. A "winter ale" according to the label but no other style info is given. This brew is a dark orange amber to light brown color, with a pretty pungent grapefruit/orange rind aroma from C-hops ... Cool, was not expecting that degree of citrus and pine on the nose. There is a dark malt undercurrent as well, with butterscotch, faint molasses, and dark fruit. Nice aroma that recalls a red IPA albeit rather less aggressive than some of these beers. Taste closely mirrors the nose, featuring a decent blast of orange oil, grapefruit flesh and rind, hemp resin, and spicy menthol coupled with brown sugar, dried apricots, and raisins. Not particularly toasty or roasted. Somewhat thicker than many red ales I've had, coats the mouth, leaving an oily residue that causes the IBUs to accumulate a bit as you go ... Again, very nice. The alcohol is almost completely hidden. Low to moderate carbonation and does finish more crisp and clean than expected. I've had a few scrumptious red ales lately and this one holds its own.

3.95/5 rDev -3.4%
look: 4 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
Seriously sparkly in the mouth. Yipes! Try a big gulp of this. Attractive dark coppery amber color in the Ciney snifter. Lovely warm malty taste to start, with the carbonation giving it a sharp edge right off. Something like roasted parsnips and winter squash with that slightly sweet vegetable flavor.
The hops are fairly subdued. Just a touch of hop flavors, though this finishes with a fair amount of bitterness. More woody and yam tasting roasted malt flavors. This is definitely on the sharp side, but if you like a fizzier beer it's quite pleasing. Well balanced, and a different sort of winter seasonal. From the 16 oz can purchased at Bottleworks in Seattle.

Many thanks, big ups and major props to msubulldog25 for having sent this to me in furtherance of The CANQuest (TM)!
From the CAN: "Hopworks Urban Brewery [-] Abominable Winter Ale [-] Arr-R-Ganic"; "Illustration of Mr. Yeti by Martin Ontiveras (www.martinhead.com)"; "Certified Organic by Oregon TILTN"; "Certified Carbon Neutral"; "Drink Responsibly"; "Think-Drink-Smile-Recycle."; "World Class Beer, Sustainably"; "Aaarganic!".
Aaarrgh! The Crack! unleashed Mr. Yeti and I was not entirely ready for him to make his presence known. Drastic action was needed and so I employed an inverted Glug which resulted in a pseudo-cascade and him becoming even angrier. It was like the old adage of not being able to put the Genie back in the bottle, but here, I could not get Mr. Yeti back in the CAN! Ooh, I'm so frightened. The graphics on the CAN are MUCH better than what is pictured on the bottle and I am keeping this one for my own small CAN collection. Being a glutton for punishment, I CANtinued to empty the CAN, causing both a roaring noise and the formation of a finger of rocky, tawny head with undying retention. What have I done?!? Color was a slightly-hazy copper (SRM = > 17, < 22) and I could see Mr. Yeti peering out at me from within its depths. The nose was redolent with minty, evergreen hops, indicative of his living environment and I have to admit, my mouth began to water. Mouthfeel was medium, but cool and dry, endorsed by Marshall McLuhan, who believed that beer and television are a cool medium. Actually, my beer seemed colder than usual and my throat began to CANstrict from its icy temperatures. Mr. Yeti was doing me no favors. Seriously, though, it had a really cool, minty flavor and I was really digging this one. Finish was like good rye whiskey, smooth, cool and dry. Inhalation was like smoking a menthol cigarette. Phew. The extreme finish even produced a caramel sweetness and I was left with a lot of nice lacing in my glass.

JVC Everio GZ-MG505 review
JVC's Everio GZ-MG505 is a hard-disk-based 3CCD camcorder that follows in the footsteps of its predecessor, the GZ-MC500, which remains an extremely impressive camcorder, even by today's standards. The MG505 adds a larger hard disk and improved optics, but it still records to proprietary video format, which may not please more professional users Read more

JVC Everio GZ-MC500 review
Because of the MC500's 3CCD system, the picture recorded to the internal Microdrive is better than anything a single-CCD system is capable of. The most convincing reason to consider the MC500 is its size, though. Unlike most camcorders, it will fit in your pocket Read more

restaurant Bareiss
made a lunch reservation for next week. i've heard fine things about it. anyone know what the lunch is like? prices, etc.? is it the same menu as dinner? prix fixe? thank you
As I am living in Germany and can put both Bareiss and Schwarzwaldstube into a (German) perspective, some comments are in order:
At both restaurants go for the degustation menu if you are first timer - they have two a large and a small one priced pretty similarily. It will take you about 3-5 hours depending on your choice but that includes some amuse, pre-dessert, petit four etc. Portion sizes are rather big, but you ask for smaller plates up-front if you want (not sure whether you get a discount.) Setting is ridiculous in my opinion, old-fashioned and outdated in the Bareiss, Schwarzwaldstube is a bit better. In the latter I feel more at home especially because serviceis sol relaxed and refreshing compared to the rather stiff staff at Bareiss.
Style-wise Lumpp is more traditional, Wohlfahrt more refined, simplistic and ingenious. Last time at Bareiss (when it had two stars) I was rather dissappointed but Lumpp is perceived to get rid of the pressure after he got the "announced" third star - so I may return. Schwarzwaldstube is surely perfect, but Wissler and especially Christian Bau (see my latest review on http://highendfood.wordpress.com) are on par and much more interesting and modern.
Overall, it is good to read that you regard those restaurant at least on the level of Paris - so Germany is worth going!!
I'm sorry that I didn't respond to this sooner but Baiersbronn is one of the most incredible villages on earth: two three Michelin starred restaurants, both of which are probably equal to anything in Paris. I've posted at length on both Bareiss and Schwarzwaldstube in the past (especially in '04 if you search "Schwarzwaldstube") and have been to each three or more times over the years.
Schwarzwaldstube is the most difficult dinner reservation in Germany and one of the most difficult on earth. At least eight months in advance if not more. (they accept reservations a year out) There are eight tables each with a side table for decanting and a foot stool with most of the tables only having two people at them. The view out of the window of the 200+ year old mountainside "wooden castle" is extraordinary and part of the overall experience. The restaurant is a loss leader for the inn with, I believe, eight servers and at least twelve in the kitchen for as few as sixteen or so in the dining room. The five hour prix fixe lunches and dinners actually encompass 12 or more courses with their signature dish being venison in one form or another. There is also a foie gras Napoleon which is incredible. Some will order a la carte but my experience is that most if not all order the larger prix fixe lunch or dinner. Again, it is almost impossible to get in here without planning a half year or more ahead. Many Germans and Swiss build vacations around being able to make a dinner reservation.
Bareiss until a year or two ago had two stars; now it also has three. A similarly extraordinary experience and almost as difficult of a dinner reservation. Both of these rarely have Americans although at both everyone in the dining room will speak perfect English. Both of these are also relative bargains for what you are served and what you will experience. I'd guess the price of each is half to two thirds of what a three star would be in, say, Paris and certainly as good.
I love this part of Germany: it is one of the most beautiful places on earth. Between these two incredible restaurants and inns it is a destination worth crossing an ocean for. If you go and can get a reservation have dinner. (lunch is easier to get in for yet dinner is what you really want to experience; a luncheon reservation at Schwarzwaldstube still must be made at least two months or more in advance). Invest four + hours at each, expect twelve + courses and trust them for what you will be served. And, taste everything. These are both extraordinary destinations.
We went to the lunch, and as others described, the lunch lasted about 3 hours. The setting and service couldn't have been more beautiful. I didn't do the set menu as they had vension and I don't want to eat Bambi.
We got the soup with dumplings, and the foie gras as appetizer. Hubbie had the lamb and my son and I split the monkfish for two. We each got a dessert, which was really 2 courses. Funny enough the menu they handed me do not have any prices on it, and as expected, I just went for the most expensive stuff without knowing.
It was truly a once in a lifetime experience. Food wasn't perfect, but the quality and care was very evident. Even the freebie amuse and post desserts were a work of art. Attached are a few pictures.
went to Bareiss and got the 6-course tasting menu. it was undoubtedly the greatest dining experience of my life. i found it superior to all of new york's 3 stars, and also to any great french restaurant i've been to, including the old lucas carton. the setting is breathtakingly beautiful. the service is impeccable but thoroughly unpretentious, and the food... the food... highlights included a white halibut with mordels and sherry sauce, perhaps the greatest single dish i've ever had, and a curd cheese tarte with rhubarb sauce. claus-peter lumpp's cooking is subtle and masterful. tastes combine in often surprising but always satisfying ways. the effect was overwhelming.

I'm a bit late to this thread, but I'll go ahead and chime in. My husband and I ate at both Restaurant Bareiss and Schwarzwaldstube a couple of years ago. We spent 5 days in Baiersbronn and we stayed at Hotel Bareiss. Both Bareiss and Schwarzwaldstube were outstanding, and I'd agree that both were better than anywhere we've eaten in France or in the US, and they were absolutely great values for the price they charged. Bareiss just had 2 stars when we were there, and it was a notch below the 3 starred Schwarzwaldstube, but really only in service, not in the quality of the food. The service was good, but a bit stuffier than the service at Schwarzwaldstube. The hotel manager told us back then that they were expecting their third star that next year (in reality it took them 2 years).
We had the menu one night for dinner at Restaurant Bareiss (6/7 courses, we each tried a different one) and it lasted about 3 hours. We had the menu for lunch at Schwarzwaldstube (5/7 courses), and it lasted 5 hours, but we were the last ones there. Other guests who ordered off the a la carte menu started trickling out after about 3 hours. Each restaurant had a few dishes on the menu that were memorable, and I don't think either of us ever had a single course that was uninspiring.
When staying at Bareiss, we were able to eat breakfast and dinner at the various restaurants throughout the hotel every day as part of the hotel package, and they were all really good. The breakfast buffet was awesome, and we got our choice of 4 or 5 courses for dinner each night. We actually managed to get in another 2 courses for dinner back at the regular Bareiss restaurant after lunch at Schwarzwaldstube, not because we were hungry, but because the food was just too good to pass up. We stuck to soup and salad that night. LOL
In summary, I don't think you can go wrong with either of these two restaurants. We keep trying to find restaurants on the same level as these two, and have been unsuccessful so far. They are definitely worth a detour or a special trip to visit.
re: uvahustla
Was that during dinner? I didn't really anticipate 4 hours for 5 courses; for most places in US that will be more like 2 hours. That's a little long - 50 minutes per course?
Anyway, hope lunch isn't that long. Otherwise it'll be almost time for our normal dinner if it's 4 hours.
re: notmartha
That was during lunch, we definitely took our time in choosing which tasting to do and made some adjustments though. First you get complimentary champagne and are welcomed, then comes the amuse bouche which is like a course, then the bread course, it's more like 30 minutes per course (2.5 hrs.) + time for amuse bouche, cheese, pre dessert, bread, and coffee afterwards.
I know it seems like a long time but it didn't seem like it......the courses were perfectly spaced and it was very comfortable. I think the average meal is between 3-4 hours.....but if you don't get the tasting it would be alot faster
I inquired a few weeks ago and the only openings they had were for lunch. The prices quoted were:
6 courses for € 135,00
7 courses for € 158,00They also have ala carte items, but I doubt it's much cheaper. We decided to go for Schwarzwaldstube instead, as it had the 3 stars for a while, and they have a 5 course for 126 euros which will work out better as I really can't eat that much food.
