Report: Bush Admin Leans Toward More Troops in Iraq
The Wall Street Journal is reporting the Bush administration is leaning towards sending up to 20,000 more troops to Iraq. Aides say no final decisions have been made, but that the White House has been receptive to calls to increase the current contingent of 140,000. The plan would come against growing public opposition — a poll this week showed just 12% of Americans support a troop increase in Iraq.
Army General: Force "Will Break" Without Troop Influx
Word of the apparent plan comes as the Army's top general has warned his force "will break" without an influx of thousands active duty troops and reserves. Testifying on Capitol Hill Thursday, General Peter J. Schoomaker said current demands would require an increase of at least 7,000 troops per year.
Palestinian Civil War Feared as PM Convoy Attacked
In the Occupied Territories, fears of a Palestinian civil war are growing as violence continues to engulf Palestinian factions Fatah and Hamas. On Thursday, a convoy carrying Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh was attacked after crossing into the Gaza Strip. One of Haniyeh's bodyguards was killed while Haniyeh's son was wounded with light injuries. Palestinian border guards linked to Fatah had initially obeyed orders from Israel to block Haniyeh's entrance. The guards also refused to let Haniyeh bring $35 million in cash he had collected on a foreign trip to help ease the economic crisis in Gaza. Earlier Thursday, Linda Balousha — the mother of three young children murdered on their way to school Monday — appealed for national unity.
Linda Balousha: "I lost my three children, but I would like to keep the children that I have. This is why I say speak up, enough injustice, let us forget what faction we belong to. Let us all be one people, and to care for our children. Our blood is not cheap for us, not cheap for our families, nor our children. Save your blood. Enough of the disregard of lives. Enough of the disregard of the people living here as if they don't exist, as if all that exists is the factions and the people are at the bottom of the chain."
Israeli High Court Upholds "Targeted Killings"
Meanwhile in Israel, the Supreme Court has upheld the military's practice of "targeted killings" in the Occupied Territories. On Thursday, the court rejected a petition from Palestinian and Israeli human rights groups the targeted killings violate international law. According to the Israeli human rights group B'Tselem, the more than 200 "targeted killings" have killed 129 civilian bystanders.
Hundreds Rally Against Killing of Afghan Civilians in US-led Raid
In Afghanistan, hundreds of people rallied in the southeastern province of Khost Thursday against a US-led raid that killed at least four civilians, including a teenage girl.
Abdul Sobhain, a tribal leader in the village of Dornami: "We gathered here to express our anger at the brutal killing of four men and one young woman in a family the day before yesterday by foreigner soldiers. The foreign soldiers entered the house of a family from the Mandozai tribe and killed innocent people, we want to know why these innocent people have been killed."
Ban Ki-Moon Sworn as 8th UN Secretary General
At the United Nations, the veteran South Korean diplomat Ban Ki-moon was sworn in Thursday as the U.N.'s eighth secretary-general.
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon: "By strengthening the three pillars of our United Nations — security, development and human rights, we can build a more peaceful, more prosperous and more just world for our succeeding generations. As we pursue our collective endeavor to reach that goal, my first priority will be to restore trust. I will seek to act as a harmonizer and bridge-builder."
In one of his last addresses, outgoing Secretary General Kofi Annan praised his successor.
Outgoing UN Secretary General Kofi Annan: "I depart convinced that today's United Nations does more than ever before. It does it better than ever before. Yet, our work is far from complete. Indeed, it will never be. It falls to my successor to carry forward the U.N.'s valuable mission. From the contacts I've had with him, I already know that you have chosen well. Our organization will be in safe hands."
Annan steps down at the end of the month.
US Joins Calls to Charge Iran President with Genocide Incitement
In other UN news, outgoing US Ambassador John Bolton joined a group of international lawyers and former diplomats Thursday to announce plans to charge Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad with inciting genocide against Israel. Ahmadinejad has called for Israel's elimination and this week said Israel would soon be "wiped out."
UN Ambassador John Bolton: "In the case of Ahmadinejad not only is what he says outrageous and unacceptable but what he's doing about it and what his government is doing about it demonstrates that this is not merely a series of statements about his intentions, his government is seeking to inquire the capabilities to do exactly what he's talking about."
Rice Rejects Syria, Iran Talks
The Bush administration has issued another public rejection of the Iraq Study Group's call to open talks with Syria and Iran. In an interview with the Washington Post, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said the cost of reaching a deal with Iran and Syria would be too high.
White House Criticizes Florida Sen. Over Syria Visit
The White House also denounced Democratic Senator Bill Nelson of Florida for meeting this week with Syrian president Bashar al-Assad. But more Senators are on their way to Damascus — Democratic Senators Christopher Dodd of Connecticut and John Kerry of Massachusetts and Republican Senator Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania have all announced plans to visit Syria within the next month.
Family of Slain Brazilian Loses Appeal to Charge British Police
In Britain, the family of Jean Charles de Menezes have lost their appeal of a decision not to charge any of the police officers involved in his shooting death. De Menezes was the innocent Brazilian man shot in the London subway last year after police mistook him to be a possible terrorist.
S.D. Sen. Tim Johnson Recovering in Critical Condition
Back in the United States, Democratic Senator Tim Johnson of South Dakota is said to be in stable, yet critical condition following an emergency operation to stop bleeding in his brain. Johnson's illness could hand Senate control back to Republicans. If Johnson is forced to give up his seat, South Dakota governor Republican Mike Rounds would choose his replacement. If Rounds were to choose a Republican, that would mean a 50-50 tie in the Senate. That would hand control back to Republicans because Vice President Dick Cheney would hold the tie-breaking vote.
Floridians Seek Lethal Injection Halt Following Half Hour Execution
In Florida, opponents of the death penalty have filed a petition to halt lethal injection after an execution of a death-row prisoner took more than half an hour. The prisoner, murder convict Angel Diaz, was killed Wednesday by a three-drug cocktail used in Florida and other death penalty states. Witnesses reported Diaz appeared to suffer and had to have the drugs administered twice. Petitioners are asking the state Supreme Court to halt lethal injunction and order an autopsy on Diaz's body. Diaz is a native of Puerto Rico. He was executed over the objections of Puerto Rican officials including Governor Acevedo Vila and Senate President Kenneth McClintock.
Alleged "Miami 7" Leader Denies Terror Charges
In Miami, a jailed man accused of leading the so-called "Miami 7" has spoken out for the first time since his arrest last June. The man, Narseal Batiste, is one of seven charged with conspiring to blow up the Sears Tower in Chicago and FBI buildings in five cities. The case has drawn scrutiny because it appears to rest entirely on Batiste's conversations with an FBI informant posing as a representative of Al-Qaida. The FBI later described the alleged plot as "aspirational rather than operational." In an open letter, Batiste said his group never had terrorist intentions and only told the informant what he thought the informant wanted to hear so he could solicit money for his religious group.
New Jersey Approves Gay Civil Unions but Denies "Marriage" Designation
In New Jersey, state lawmakers legalized same-sex civil-unions Thursday but said those civil-unions cannot be called "marriage." The measure follows October's ruling by New Jersey's Supreme Court the state must grant gay couples the same legal rights as married heterosexuals.
Accuser in Duke Rape Case Due to Give Birth 9 Months after Alleged Rape
In North Carolina, the woman at the center of the Duke lacrosse rape case is pregnant and due to give birth —-—- roughly nine months after the party where she says she was assaulted and raped. The woman, an African American, was hired as a dancer for a lacrosse team party held in a house rented from Duke University. There she says she was beaten, raped and choked by three white lacrosse team members who also called her racial epithets. All three players have proclaimed their innocence.
Appeals Court Upholds Reparations Rejection
And finally, a federal appeals court has upheld the rejection of a case brought by descendants of slaves seeking reparations from several large American corporations. The court ruled slave descendants have no grounds to sue over injustices suffered by their ancestors and that the statute of limitations expired more than a century ago. But in a decision hailed by reparations advocates, the court ruled companies that try to conceal their past links to slavery can be charged with fraud.

" Sony MDR NC200D - Headphones ( ear-cup ) - active noise cancelling "
I bought these headphones for my Dad for his birthday after having extensively tested a whole range of noise-cancelling headphones in a number of electrical & department stores. I had originally intended to buy the Bose Quiet Comfort 3 headphones, but found these to be much better value.
First the best bits: The ear of the headphone swivels to allow the headphones to be more easily packed (important, as I knew that they would be primarily used for long plane journeys) and they come complete with their own protective carry case. Like the Bose headphones, these require batteries for the noise-cancelling function to work. If your batteries run out in the Bose headphones, you can no-longer use them, even without the noise cancelling function, which was a big drawback for me. However, these Sony headphones still work if the batteries die, just without the noise cancelling function. They take standard AAA batteries, so it is easy to carry spares in the carry case.
I wouldn't say there are 'cons' to these headphones, but it is worth noting that the sound quality and noise cancelling ability is inferior to the Bose QC3s. However, they are 90% as good for less than a sixth of the price, so much better value!
To give some perspective, I bought these headphones in 2012 for just over £50 from Amazon. I have seen them for double this price, so it is worth shopping around.
Hear only what you want to with background noise on mute. Featuring Sony's advanced digital signal processing technology, ambient noise is reduced by up to 98.2% with these MDR-NC200D premium digital noise canceling headphones. Whether you're at the office, on a plane or train, built-in Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology automatically adjusts to your surroundings to offer the optimal level of noise canceling customized to the environment and sound conditions. High quality audio is yours with 40mm driver units, full digital amplification and a high performance digital equalizer delivering the highest highs and lowest lows for incredible-sounding music. Cushy, feather-soft ear cushions provide maximum comfort, plus an ultra-compact, collapsible design makes these headphones perfect for travel.

Nokia Lumia 820 review
Nokia's more modest Windows Phone 8 device is a well-balanced, powerful and affordable handset
Review Date: 4 Jan 2013
Reviewed By: Mike Jennings
Price when reviewed: SIM-free: 8GB, £316 (£380 inc VAT); from free on a £21/mth, 24mth contract
Buy it now for: £193
(see more store prices)
Features & Design
Value for Money
In real-world use, the 820 performed near-flawlessly. It ran games without any frame-rate issues, and Windows Phone 8 was almost as slick. We did notice a tiny judder when switching from the homescreen to the alphabetical list of apps, but this is a small complaint.
Other specifications comprise dual-band 802.11n Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 3.1, with NFC and LTE nicely rounding things off. We'd prefer more storage than the miserly 8GB, and bigger battery than the 1,650mAh unit, though. Its 50% in our 24-hour rundown test is better than the 920's 40% result but is still below average.
Nokia hasn't brought its PureView camera technology to the 820's 8-megapixel shooter, and there's a clear gulf in quality. While the 820 captures colourful, sharp images, the Lumia 920's incredible camera captured even more detail with less grain, and excelled in low-light conditions. The lack of optical image stabilisation means 1080p video isn't as smooth on the 820, either.
Our fondness for the Windows Phone 8 camera app remains undimmed, though, with its excellent selection of software "lenses", and Nokia includes the same range of valuable software extras as on the 920. In addition to the core Windows 8 OS, you get Nokia Maps and Drive, plus Nokia Music and City Lens. Developer support is still patchy, though, with none of the apps noted in our 920 review – Instagram, Dropbox, iPlayer and Spotify – yet available in the store.
Not only is the Lumia 820 an attractive smartphone but, if bought on a 3G contract, it offers excellent value for money, too. At around £21 per month, it's cheaper than the Lumia 920 and Samsung Galaxy S III on similar deals.
We closed our Lumia 920 review by advising potential buyers to wait and see what other Windows Phone 8 handsets had to offer, but we didn't expect Nokia's own Lumia 820 to come along and provide the competition. The low-resolution screen, weaker camera and continued lack of apps mean it can't compete with the best Android handsets, but the usability of Windows 8 and attractive physical design mean this well-balanced Nokia is still an attractive proposition.

Voice recognition
I have seen comments that the voice recognition actually works. Is this true?

It works quite well for me on my 920.

Nice phone
A shame Nokia don't make an Android version.

I had an android phone and just recently bought a Nokia Lumia 920. I don't regret it for one second. The interface is slick, the camera is excellent and the integration with Microsoft services superb. The additional Nokia apps are also great value.
By ish44 on 5 Jan 2013
Value for money
So the Lumia 820 costing £0 on a £21/ month contract gets the same value for money rating as the iPhone 5 costing £159, on a £31.00 per month...
Do I need to comment further?

By dg2puk on 7 Jan 2013
Damning with faint praise.....again
I don't understand what you want from a battery, but my 920 lasts a full day easily - involving phone, browsing and newsreading, along with sundry apps.
The 'dearth' of Apps for WP8 hasn't bothered me that much. The NOKIA provided ones offer substantial added-value.
The Mapping & turn-by-turn Navigation(for instance) is far better than Apple's pathetic excuse for an Application.
Of course I'm a lot older than many and so I tend to live in the Real World, delving into the Virtual one only when it offers utility in Reality.... From a cursory glance at the WP8 App Store they seem to have plenty, and all the major ones....
By wittgenfrog on 7 Jan 2013
Apparently the new windows 8 (portico?) update improves the battery life, along with some tweaks to the camera. I guess some people won't be happy unless the update reduces the size, the weight and changes the OS though ;)
By ish44 on 7 Jan 2013
Although mentioned in passing when listing what's exposed by removing the back cover, it's odd that more is not made of the micro-sd slot.
I've had an 820 for a month-or-so now and have more music on the card than there is space for on the phone. Pictures & videos taken get stored there by default if wanted, as does music downloaded via the WP8 music app. It appears as a seperate drive to the main phone memory when plugged into USB.
A current limitation is that neither apps nor their data can be off-loaded on the card - I don't see that changing any-time soon either.
By alynsparkes on 7 Jan 2013
To quote your article on the benchmark results: "Both results are the fastest we've seen from any phone."
And yet it only gets 4 out of 6 (ie just above average) on performance rating? I'm guessing anything above 4 stars is reserved exclusively for apple products?
By drslothy on 10 Jan 2013
I find the windows phone useful as a phone however I am unable to install several programs which I would find useful in work since the winbdows phone will not allow me to install an "executable" program, eg firefox since this is my preferred browser, I believe the surface tablet has the same drawback

Chemistry : Molecular Nature of Matter and Change - Student Solutions Manual (5TH 09 - Old Edition)by Martin Silberberg
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
This supplement contains detailed solutions and explanations for all even-numbered problems in the main text.
About the Author
Martin S. Silberberg received his B.S. in chemistry from the City University of New York in 1966 and his Ph.D. in chemistry from the University of Oklahoma, in 1971. He then accepted a research position at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, where he studied the chemical nature of neurotransmission and Parkinson's disease. In 1977, Dr. Silberberg joined the faculty of Simon's Rock College of Bard (Massachusetts), a liberal arts college known for its excellence in teaching small classes of highly motivated students. As Head of the Natural Sciences Major and Director of Premedical Studies, he taught courses in general chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, and nonmajors chemistry. The close student contact afforded him insights into how students learn chemistry, where they have difficulties, and what strategies can help them succeed. In 1983, Dr. Silberberg decided to apply these insights in a broader context and established a text writing and editing company. Before writing his own text, he worked on chemistry, biochemistry, and physics texts for several major college publishers. He resides with his wife and child in Massachusetts. For relaxation, he cooks, sings, and walks in the woods.

COMMENT: On the right track at last
Updated 10:04am Wednesday 23rd April 2014 in News
THERE'S no denying that Network Rail's £1bn electrification project is absolutely necessary. But what has angered many affected by the scheme is how officials have gone about it.
Earlier this year the firm scrapped its original timetable for rebuilding 28 bridges across the county.
Now it has admitted more work than first thought is needed on the Fulscot Road Bridge in South Moreton – the first of the bridges in the project – and residents will have to put up with the disruption for a further six months.
Wantage and Didcot MP Ed Vaizey, who has previously labelled the company "incompetent and insensitive", today said he is "heartened" to hear that Network Rail will be working much harder with their contractors and the county council to minimise any further disruption.
Hats off to the firm for admitting it has faced considerable challenges on the project, but with a scheme on such a scale as this, every effort possible should have been made to ensure the disruption was kept to a minimum from day one.
We hope with Mr Vaizey involved, and the pressure from the communities affected, those at the top will make sure the rest of the project runs to plan. And above all, we hope they communicate with the public who will ultimately face the severe consequences of the work.

If they had done this work in the 1970s like everywhere else in Europe, this would have gone more smoothly because the systems for complaining about infrastructure improvements were far less advanced at the time. Now we are not only 40 years behind the times but also need to pay more for 'mitigation measures'.

Now we are not only 40 years behind the times but also need to pay more for 'mitigation measures'.
The possibility of electrification of the GW main line route has been around since at least that time. Network Rail (and its predecessors) as network operators should have been fully aware of the nature and condition of the various structures along the route, and ready with a proper plan once it was likely to get the go ahead.
Instead they are making it up as they go along, with less than 2 years to finish the job. 'Incompetent and insensitive' about sums it up.

Robin Neifield | August 24, 2011 | Comments
Time, money, and resources are the currency that both help compensate for a lack of brand strength and build the brand if done well.
While many have hailed the Internet and marketing in this media as the great leveler, they were deeply misinformed. Market leaders and strong brands have advantages in business and in all kinds of marketing and in online marketing no less so.
Strong brands don't have to explain or introduce themselves - at least not to as many people. They can make use of carefully crafted shortcuts and can spend their budget on other objectives because they already have awareness. Their budget may also go farther because their cost per sale and cost per acquisition are often less than weaker or less well-known brands. They might have healthy email lists of customers and other ways to remind consumers to continue to purchase frequently because consumers are more likely to consent to remarketing options with strong brands. Strong brands enjoy that advantage because they have built a foundation with a usually costly and long-term investment in the brand. In the voice of a famous ad campaign that many of our younger readers might not recognize - they did it the old fashioned way: they eaaarrned it.
The value of brand in social media is no less important. While any business can work on engaging audiences through social channels, it is the strongest brands that have built the strongest communities to date. Smaller brands can and have won by proving that they understand the channel and their audience needs, but the strategies for a well-known, well-understood, and well-liked brand should differ from a newly-launched, lesser-known, or reputation-challenged brand.
Bottom line across all media: better or positive brand awareness equals a lower cost of acquisition, which means that for lesser-known brands, you should be prepared for a larger investment of both time and money to get the results that you are looking for in both paid and earned social media channels.
Good suggestions for all brands but critical for smaller brands:
Invest Your Time
Invest Your Money
The consumer education and communication that creates a strong brand may be costly but it is also very valuable. Time, money, and resources are the currency that both help compensate for a lack of brand strength and at the same time build the brand if done well. If you have the advantage of a great brand, don't squander it with lazy marketing or bad content in social channels. If you are working with a new launch, a smaller brand, or one with a challenge to overcome, you can carefully craft your approach to maximize the impact of the resources that you do have.

More reviews by BoundlessBeauty
I purchased this palette at Ulta Beauty and loved the look of the colors. I swatched a few colors on my hand, but when I took the palette home and used it the colors just would not blend. The colors lacked pigmentation and as stated- blendability. I was not impressed; therefore, I returned the palette after using a few tines unsuccessfully.

I prefer matte shadows over very shimmery shadows, like the ones found in the Urban Decay line. I bought the LORAC matte and shimmer palette and just about used up all the colors so I thought a new palette was in order. Saw this and impulse bought it. I found the pigments of the softer colors to be too sheer and the deeper colored shadows were much more orange on the skin than they looked in the pan. I tend to lean towards beiges, pinks, and taupes rather than golds, oranges, and browns. So this was a no go for me. While I like matte shadows, I like them to be high pigmented AND correctly pigmented. Returned the palette and bought the 7 Ways to Bare by BareMinerals. While the colors are less accessible because they are each in their own little pot, they are what I was looking for. That's my two cents!
When I got this palette, I was sick of shiny shadow, flat mattes, and shimmer everywhere. I needed a reboot. This palette was being shown off on the Ulta website, so I impulse bought it and anxiously waited a few days. First things first, I never thought mattes could be this multi-dimensional. They have this satiny sheen that is beautiful on any skintone, eye shape, etc. I've used this on friends, clients, even my makeup hating mom, and everyone has loved the natural effect it has upon looks like a smoky eye. I don't think I'd repurchase this palette as I don't think I'll ever run out, it's so pigmented! But, packaging wise, I wish they'd choose to have a less plush packaging. It gets dirty if it even comes close to anything. Overall, I love this palette and would recommend it to a friend, or anyone looking for a beautiful matte pick-me-up!

Overall: This palette has a teeny bit of a learning curve, but once you get beyond that the colors are soft and pretty and this can be used to create everyday nice looking eyes, the quality of the shadows is superb and they blend easily with others making this a highly versatile product.
Packaging: I am not a huge fan of the packaging in terms of how it looks, it tends to be a bit childish and cheap looking in my opinion. Functionally though, the package rocks, the metallic clasp keeps the palette locked shut and the smaller sizes squares of shadow look clean and have enough space in between them (this is huge to me, i HATE when shadows drop into eachother and get all muddy and dirty).
Formula: These shadows are super smooth, they glid on the lid and feel really soft and light on. I want to call it a "creamy" feel but they are a true soft powder, creamy without being moist in any way.
Perfromance: The color payoff is good, most of these colors are muted, even the bolder orange, red, purple and blue all have a soft almost filtered quality, this means they are super easy to blend and work well with others, but you run the risk of blending the color into oblivion. Like other reviews have said, the look can get muddy if you try to do too much with these. The all matte theme is really versatile, this palette will fit right in with almost every other shadow you own.
A primer is an absolute necessity with these shadows, I have experimented with putting the shadows on bare lids and the staying power is awful, however with an eyeshadow prime I get a full days wear out of them. I will add my lids are not overly oily, I would consider them average.
This is a go-to in my stash, it is just so easy to make looks that are pretty, wearable and every-day from this palette. I do a black liner and mascara, a soft color on the lid, a warmer one on the crease and maybe a hint of the espresso in the V or to deepend the crease, and the lightest shades as a highligter and done. The looks are perfect for someone in the workforce or who likes makeup but isn't able to do full smoky eye or purple lids everyday to school, family events, church, work etc.
I took one star off in part for the muted colors and super soft texture that is just SO EASY to overblend and look muddy (especially if you have warmer skin like I do), but mostly for the gimmeky "transforming pearl" shade. No. Of course swiping a white pearl eyeshadow on top of already muted low pigment colors is not going to "transform" the shadow into another color or make it more "shimmery". It just makes the color even less noticible and more muted. I have seen Jamie Kern present this on QVC and I have to say it is quite misleading to say it doubles the amount of shadows in the palette. It is perfectly fine as a highligter or as a browbone color, but please don't insult the intelligence of women who give you our hard earned money and pretend like this white eyeshadow (which we all probably already have one just like) will "transform" the colors into totally new shimmery and radiant colors (if this was the case, don't you think we all would already be swiping white glitter eyeshadow on top of our colors?)
Like others mentioned, I bought this palette from the IT COSMETICS site, it is normally $42 but I paid $35, so check for coupons and website sales, also QVC has the palette and a nice two sided brush for $39.

Oh my gosh, can we all just take a moment to drool over this palette? Seriously, this thing is gorgeous. I even "feature" it on top of where I store all my makeup, because it is THAT pretty. The shades in this palette are wayyyy more than I had hoped for. All the websites and photos give it absolutely no justice!! You have to be physically holding this palette in natural light to see how different it is than most.
You get 15 shadows in this palette, one of them being a "transformer" shade that can I guess make all the other shades shimmer or gleam if you want them to. I have yet to use that little guy, because the other shades are already perfect to me. Some of my favorite shades in this palette are Soft Light, Warmth, All Heart, Mocha, and Soulful. I don't think you can even dupe these shades - that's how unique they are. The ones I just mentioned have mostly a "rosy" tone to them, but there are also some beautiful deeper shades that make great lower lash smudgy liners. Those shades are Noir, Midnight, Java, and Iconic. You can use them to get a subtle pop of color, or go heavy handed and use them in the crease. I have no complaints when it comes to the texture of these shadows, the all feel like silk. They are also super easy to blend, which is ALWAYS helpful. The lighter colors in here look amazing with each other, but they also look great paired with one of the darker shades in the outer V of the eye. You can create endless looks with this palette, and literally all the shades are compatible with each other. Sometimes you get a palette that has such contrasts, that it makes it hard to do a one and done look with the palette. Even though this palette may not look like it can do that - I promise you it can. It can create a look from day to night, without needing to use any other shadows from your collection. Speaking of day to night - I think any of these shades can be worn during the day. Even the darker ones. It's nice knowing I can grab this palette in a hurry and get an easy, blended, flawless eye makeup look in minutes. Whoever created this formula is a genius!!
Get this palette. It's so unique and different than any other I own, and probably you own. You will not regret it! Certainly worth every penny.

This is hands down my favorite eye palette. I use all the colors and love the texture and quality of them. They go on so smoothly and are easy to blend. The only con is the amount of each shadow and would give this five lippies if they were in a rectangular type style rather than the small square.
Will absolutely repurchase!

I've seen this palette at Ulta before and never really was that interested. Then my husband got it for me as a gift because he knows I love makeup and love my naked 2 & 3. So since I got it I tried it out and I was amazed at how much I ended up liking it. The colors are beautiful, highly pigmented and so buttery. Also I love matte eyeshadow so this was perfect. I guess the reason I was never attracted to it at first was just because of the packaging especially the inside looks cheap. Also because I have a one track mind and was stuck on urban decay eyeshadow. This palette is actually very nice and you can create many different looks. I highly recommend it!

An eye palette to RAVE about?? An HG palette?? YES!! I usually have a tough time with eye palettes as normally not many of the colors suit me or just look funny, so I usually just buy for the packaging if I see 1-2 colors that look familiar to me. However, this is truly something that I may be able to use up! I was skeptical at first but just decided to go for it since I like the taupes, plums, and orangey shades, and reviews were great. I was not at all disappointed.
First of all, it is brilliant. It Cosmetics technology is so different than other products. The eyeshadows go on smoother. If you swatch them and rub it off, it doesn't really come off. They are also silken powders that are very blendable and pigmented.
The thing I like most about these eyeshadows are that the formula looks great on me. I have smaller almond shaped eyes, and cannot blend into creases the same way other people do. I normall just wear one color shade and a highlight. What sold me was a review I found on ULTA saying that people with hooded-lids NEED this. While I don't have hooded lids, I believe I need similar products since my eyes are smaller. This stuff has been a joy for me because I can wear every single one of the colors. They are very universal for any skintone. Infact, if I were a makeup artist I would think I would not have to use anything else really. This would also be wonderful wedding makeup.
Not sure how it works, but the result is natural, "naturally pretty" like it is named, but still dramatic and sexy. It is a classier way to wear different colors on the lid, since bright shadows are definitely not in anymore...but even still, the color range on this is incred!
I would actually buy this again and have never said that for a palette of all things. I am even excited for the next one to come out! Oh and I think the packaging is so cute! Pink and adorable!! With a beautifully sized mirror too...Idk I love it?
One of the best products I've ever purchased. HG even. Amazeballs :)

I love a matte shadow now that I'm in my late 30s. I honestly don't use the Transforming Pearl, since I have hooded eyes, that effect wouldn't be beneficial for me. The matte shadows though are all lovely and apply smooth on my lids.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Absolutely the creamiest powder eyeshadows I have ever come across. There are a good variety of shades and it's a good deal for how much product you get (even better using a 20% off coupon from Ulta!) They can be applied very lightly as a sheer wash of color or built up and layered for more intensity. My only complaint is the packaging because it's going to get dirty with continued use but I'm afraid to depot them because of how soft the shadows are. I'm excited that this palette is named Volume #1 because it means there will be more released. My only improvement for the future volumes is different packaging!

The Garabit Viaduct (Viaduc de Garabit in French) is a railway arch bridge spanning the River Truyère near Ruynes-en-Margeride (Fr), Cantal, France, in the mountainous Massif Central region. The bridge was constructed between 1882 and 1884 by Gustave Eiffel, with structural engineering by Maurice Koechlin,[1] and was opened in 1885. It is 565 m (1,854 ft) in length and has a principal arch of 165 m (541 ft) span.[2]
By the end of the 1870s Eiffel & Cie, the company formed by Gustave Eiffel in partnership with Theophile Seyrig, had an established position among the leading French engineering companies. Between 1875 and 1877[3] the company had built the Maria Pia Bridge over the Douro at Porto, and when it was proposed to construct a railway between Marvejols and Neussargues in the Cantal department the work of constructing a viaduct to cross the River Truyère was given to Eiffel without the usual process of competitive tendering at the recommendation of the engineers of the state Highways Department since the technical problems involved were similar to those of the Maria Pia Bridge; indeed, it was Eiffel & Cie's success with this project that had led to the proposal for a viaduct at Garabit.[4]
Bridge design and construction[edit]
The project was demanding, with a line 120 metres (400 ft) over the River Truyère. Boyer believed this would be considerably less expensive than taking the railway line around or down through the valley. To resist the wind, Eiffel instantly discarded the principle of solid beam construction, thinking that "it would be very heavy and the beams would rattle in the wind". Instead, he adopted the concept of trusses or "a series of open triangles" to assuage wind force that "would blow right through them". Truss work also provides stability when loads are applied through the theory of tension and compression that states force is exerted on the diagonal and vertical segments causing them to resist one another. Eiffel also improved upon his Douro design, adopting the same two-hinged crescent-arch form but employing an arch visually separated from the thin horizontal girder. The Garabit Viaduct's arches were engineered to have support hinges, allowing the crescent shape to widen. This method both simplified calculations and improved resistance to wind loads.
When it opened with a single track in November 1885, the Garabit Viaduct was 565 m (1,854 ft) long and weighed 3587 tons. Even more impressive was the actual deflection, which was measured at 8 millimetres, a figure precisely anticipated by Eiffel's calculations. The bridge was also, when built, the highest in the world.[5] The overall project cost was 3,100,000 francs.[6] Until 11 September 2009, only one regular passenger train per day in each direction used to pass over the viaduct - a Corail route from Clermont-Ferrand to Béziers. On that date, the viaduct was closed as cracks were discovered in one of the foundation piles.[7] It reopened one month later after a safety inspection and was in service with a speed limit of 10 km/h (6 mph) for all traffic.
On 15 June 2011, the Garabit closed for extensive work and reopened on 15 December 2011. During the works, the train from Béziers to Clermont-Ferrand terminated at St Chély d'Apcher and a bus continued to Clermont-Ferrand. There is an excellent view of the Garabit viaduct from the bus.
Garabit Viaduct in fiction[edit]
The Garabit Viaduct was used to represent the condemned "Cassandra Crossing" bridge in the 1976 film The Cassandra Crossing.[8][9] In the film the Cassandra Crossing has been unused and derelict for 30 or 40 years and is considered dangerous, to the extent that people living nearby moved away fearing it could collapse.
In 1964, French director Henri-Georges Clouzot shot The Inferno (L'Enfer) starring Serge Reggiani and Romy Schneider at the nearby Hotel Garabit (renamed Hotel du Lac for the movie) and on the lake. The film was never completed after disputes between Clouzot and key actors and crew and Clouzot himself suffering a heart attack.
Added pressure came from a deadline after which an electricity company planned to drain the lake to generate power at a nearby dam, also used as a backdrop for the stillborn movie.
The saga was covered in a documentary screened in June 2010 by Sky Arts 2 in the UK.

Putrid garbage juice adds a tangy note to Queens Quay sidewalk: The Fixer
A trash compactor next to the Guvernment nightclub is squeezing garbage juice onto the street.

There's nothing like freshly squeezed restaurant garbage to produce the foulest smelling juices on a sultry day.
Now that summer is here, the heat adds a definite tang to the fragrance of the rotting foodstuffs and disposable diapers that are put out for trash collection.
Go for a walk on a hot summer morning on a street where green composting bins have been put out to the curb and see for yourself. The odour of some is beyond belief.
So when a business that produces large amounts of food waste is not careful about disposing of it, the malodorous side effects can get up the noses of everyone who comes too close, even customers.
A reader told us he often walks along the north side of Queens Quay and passes the well-known Guvernment nightclub complex, just east of Jarvis St., where a huge trash container is right next to the sidewalk.
Last weekend, he noticed a detestable-smelling fluid oozing from the container and running onto the sidewalk, where he says it offends everyone who has to walk through it.
"It is absolutely terrible," he said, noting that his shoes stuck to the sidewalk when he walked past it, and the smell was so bad he thought he'd throw up.
We went there and found what appears to be a large trash compactor in the parking lot on the east side of the Guvernment building, just a few metres away from the sidewalk.
A greyish-brown liquid was congealing in a couple of places between the street and the compactor, which has also been trickling down to the sidewalk and into the curb.
The smell on the sidewalk wasn't too bad, but we nearly gagged when we went closer to the compactor.
STATUS: Joe Magalhaes, a supervisor in that area with Municipal Licensing and Standards, said the garbage juice oozing out of the compactor may be a violation of standards for odours and fouling the sidewalk. He also said that it could be a problem for Toronto Public Health to investigate. An inspector will be sent to check it out and issue whatever compliance orders are needed, said Magalhaes.

To fulfil the long pending demand of the Japanese companies here, the State government on Monday said a road over-bridge (RoB) will be constructed at Athipattu in Tiruvallur district to facilitate transportation of heavy equipment from Manali Industrial Area to Ennore Port.
The RoB will be constructed either by the State government or by the Railways. A final decision to this effect will be taken by the month end, said officials after attending a high-level meeting presided over by the Prime Minister's Adviser, T.K.A. Nair. The meeting was attended by various stakeholders, including the Industries department, State and National Highways, and Chennai and Ennore ports.
As the present RoB at Athipattu is weak, the Japanese firms, which have business interests in the area, had requested the State government for construction of a new bridge that could withstand the load of wind turbines weighing over 500 tonnes. Ennore Port will be used as a gateway for exporting such special equipment.
According to the Japan External Trade Organisation (JETRO), Director General, Shinya Fujii, as of October 2012, as many as 344 firms had invested in the State. Since then, JETRO has been getting enquiries from 300 to 400 Japanese firms with investment plans. About 120 companies have invested over $203 billion in Tamil Nadu and provided over 52,000 jobs.
Mr. Nair has been visiting Chennai since November 2011 to review crucial infrastructure projects including the 30-km long Ennore-Manali Road Improvement Project, which connects Ennore Port with Chennai Port, and the construction of the RoB at Athipattu.
Talking to The Hindu, a senior official said the government had asked the Railways to construct an RoB adjacent to the existing one.
The new bridge would have the capacity to handle a single load of 575 tonnes of heavy equipment against the old bridge's capacity of 300 to 350 tonnes. It would cost roughly Rs.35 crore and could be constructed in a year's time. The exact cost would be known only after the design was ready.
A former Industry Secretary, who did not want to be named, said the construction of RoB could have been completed three or four years ago. But, they underestimated the project cost and did not allocate sufficient funds.

White Creek man charged with Assault
WHITE CREEK - Police arrested a man for assault after two people were sent to the hospital.
State Police say they were dispatched to a home on County Route 68 after a report of two men fighting. According to police one man and one woman were transported to the Southwestern Vermont Medical Center. The man suffered minor injuries and the woman was treated and released.
Police say that after an investigation they determined that 48 year-old Florian Mayer, who was the resident of the home, allegedly attacked the injured man and the woman got in the way. Police believe alcohol was a factor.
Police say Mayer was charged with one count of Third Degree Assault and one count of Making a False Written Statement after they determined his deposition he gave at the scene to be inconsistent with the facts.

The Effingham County Sheriff's office warns Georgia Power customers that scammers are busy. This time the scammers are visiting the homes of power customers and pretending to be Georgia Power Employees.
What follows is part of a release that the Sheriff's Office wants shared with residents:
"The imposters say the customer has a past due balance, and in order to prevent shutoff, they must purchase a pre-paid card by providing credit and debit account information.A real company employee would never ask a customer to do this. If a customer's account ever became past due, the person would receive a prerecorded message that gives a phone number they can call to find out about their account."
The Effingham County Sheriff's Office says if you think you have received calls or visits from a scam artist, you can call Georgia Power's 24 hour customer service line at 888-660-5890.

Base salary for new UW president set at $550,000 a year
Incoming University of Washington President Michael Young will make about $100,000 less than his predecessor, Mark Emmert, but he will still see a big boost in his base salary.

Utah Governor Gary Herbert's statement on University of Utah President Michael K. Young's departure
Incoming University of Washington President Michael Young will make about $100,000 less than his predecessor, Mark Emmert, but he will still see a big boost in his base salary.
Young's annual pay will be $550,000 a year. That's a 58 percent increase in the base salary he makes as president of the University of Utah.
The five-year contract, approved Monday morning during a special meeting of the UW Board of Regents, also includes a "golden handcuff" clause that will pay him $193,000 in deferred compensation each year. Young will be able to collect the full amount, nearly $1 million, at the end of five years; if he leaves the university before then, though, he won't receive any of that money.
Young has said he would take less than his predecessor, whose salary was a sore point for some lawmakers, faculty members and the public. At one point, Emmert was the second-highest-paid public-university president in the country.
Regents Chairman Herb Simon said Young's pay will rank him around the middle of the top-10 highest-paid public-university presidents.
Some other details of the contract:
• Young will make $46,000 a year in retirement benefits and will receive a $12,000 auto allowance, bringing the total value of his package to $802,000 a year.
• He will be allowed to sit on the board for two private for-profit or nonprofit companies or organizations, subject to approval from the regents. Young currently sits on the board of directors for SkyWest, and makes $95,150 a year.
• Young will be required to live at Hill-Crest, the university-owned mansion at 808 36th Ave. E.
• The board also appointed Young as a professor with tenure in the UW's law school. While president, he won't work as a law-school faculty member, but the appointment means he could take a position as law-school professor after he retires from the presidency. Young is 61.
• Under the terms of the contract, if Young marries, the university will pay "reasonable travel and entertainment expenses" for his spouse when she is traveling or entertaining for university business. Young is divorced. Emmert's contract contained a similar clause for his wife.
Currently, as University of Utah president, Young makes a base salary of $348,000. In 2009-10, he reached a five-year anniversary with the school and received a lump-sum $375,000 payout that boosted his salary to $723,000 for that one year. That retention incentive was paid through private donations.
Young will make a lower base salary than Elson S. Floyd, the president of Washington State University, although he will make more money than Floyd through deferred compensation. Floyd makes $725,000 a year, but again this year is giving $100,000 back to the university as a response to the state's financial crisis, making his actual salary $625,000.
Floyd stands to earn a $500,000 retention incentive on June 30, 2012, which will be just past his five-year anniversary with the university.
Young is scheduled to start his new job July 1. At that time, interim President Phyllis Wise will return to her position as university provost.

Crave Worthy: Rangemaster Floral Edition Range Cookers
by POPSUGAR Home 37 Reactions 0 Shares Print
When I came across the Rangemaster Floral Edition Range Cookers on Apartment Therapy: SF, I spent quite a long time debating whether I thought they were ugly or awesome. Ultimately, I decided that the ranges — or "cookers" as the Brits call them — from U.K. appliance maker Aga were too unique not to mention.
Honestly, I think they'd look pretty cute in the right kitchen (I especially like the gerbera daisy), and the designs make me want to plaster a colorful image on my own bare oven. I can't figure out if this line is sold in the U.S., so contact an Aga dealer near you to inquire.
