Overall a great powder foundation. Doesn't look too good as a setting powder for some reason on me it oxidized really bad. But by itself it's great. Good coverage, I would say medium-full if you really pack it on. Only downside is the price, and because of that not sure if I would re-purchase.

I LOVE this powder. Definitely a HG, great color range, perfect coverage and consistently a repurchase for me. However, you do not get very much product for the cost, as previous reviewers have stated. I go through this powder entirely too fast since I use it everyday. I have to mix it now with Rimmel Stay Matte powder to make it last longer.

This is the best foundation I have used so far. It blends smoothly and easily and covers up any dark spots. I apply with a brush for lighter coverage and with the sponge when I need more. Stays on all day! I recently hit pan after using the product for over a year. The only thing I would change is the price - at $40, it's on the expensive end. However, I haven't found a powder foundation that's better yet.

I had hiiiiigh hopes for this product. For how pricy this project is, I was expecting greatness and I nearly got it. The color was a little too light for me but the coverage was great. Can't remember the color it was. But my issue with this product is that this product only lasted me three weeks!!! For how much I paid I couldn't believe I hit pan after three dang weeks. I was using this as an everyday foundation. Never again!!

Great powder! There is a limited color selection however I was able to find one fairly easily. I think it's pretty pricey for a setting powder. It doesn't really keep me matte but it does its job for a few hours (please keep in mind that my face is quite oily). I only gave three lippies for the packaging because it's fragile. I've purchased this twice and they've both broken when I dropped them on the floor :( Cracked into a million pieces. I do love the sleekness of the packaging and the convenient mirror and sponge. I just wish it wouldn't break so easily when dropped. Wonderful powder so please try it out!

I've been using this foundation for 2 years now. On and off, not everyday. Been very lazy lately to try out new foundations so I just stuck with this one and whatever other brands I had left before I wanted to purchase a new one.
Packaged Sponge that comes with the product:
- An okay way for application. Hard to blend the product evenly and get good coverage with it without looking cakey. Gets dirty.
A flat-top foundation brush:
- Great way for application. Buffs into the skin and evens it out nicely.
- With a primer + setting powder, it stays matte for a pretty long time compared to other foundations I've tried.
- Without a primer + setting powder, I get oily after a few hours.
- No white cast, natural in lighting.
- Good coverage.
- Looks great in pictures.
- Enhances dry spots if you have any. It's winter here currently and it really enhances those dry areas.
- I have to apply a lot of layers to get a good coverage especially on acne scars.
- Kind of noticeable in person unless you've applied very little.
For the past year, I've only been using this on my T-zone. Not my entire face.
It was pretty good but I'm going to say goodbye forever to this product.
I'd rather not have make-up that breaks me out. Skincare > Makeup
It's a good product OVERALL but unfortunately, it irritates my skin.

This foundation is AMAZING!! I have dry skin but with a very oily t-zone, and I have never been able to wear foundation without it poking flakey or cakey. I apply this foundation with a powder brush (sephora #46) and my skin looks FLAWLESS!!
I am so picky about how my skin looks so being impressed with this product is a big deal for me. When I apply this, my skin looks airbrushed, and it doesn't look like I am wearing foundation.. It just looks like I have naturally smooth skin.
This is so amazing! The pan that it comes in looks small for the price, however, you use so little product (with a brush), that it lasts forever. I have been using mine for a month+ and it looks like I haven't used it at all. A very good deal for the price!

Ok well i recently repurchased this powder and it notice its nothing special anymore, I been using it for about 2 years at first it was my holy grail now its not that special to me it does have very nice coverage its a little to much coverage over any foundation, even though it looks so flawless the first few minutes after an hour it gets oily and cakey even though you apply a little its looks oily and just doesn't control oily. Alone as a powder foundation its not that great either you can just tell your wearing makeup and feels heavy I'm 100% sure their are better powder foundations out their.

Prominent Ijaw leaders including Chief Edwin Clark, a former Minister of Police Affairs, Broderick Bozimo and Bayelsa State Commissioner for Culture and Ijaw National Affairs, Dr. Felix Tuodolor, have urged President Goodluck Jonathan to contest the 2015 presidential election.
The Ijaw leaders spoke in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State capital, during the sixth Ijaw Youth Council Inauguration.
Mr. Udengs Eradiri was inaugurated as the newly-elected President of IYC (Worldwide).
At the ceremony were Special Adviser to the President on Niger Delta Affairs, Mr. Kingsley Kuku; aides of Bayelsa State governor; former IYC contenders and scores of Niger Delta ex-agitators.
Clark urged Ijaw people to unite to be able to galvanise support for Jonathan in his re-election bid.
"We all know that these are indeed trying times for the Ijaw nation and IYC constitutes the foot soldiers of the Ijaw. There is a need for unity among us to be able to rally support for our son, President Goodluck Jonathan, in his 2015 re-election bid.
"I am happy the Ijaw youths have closed ranks and put all their differences behind them. I am happy that Eradiri said the struggle for Ijaw unity would be taken to an intellectual level through capacity building for the youth."
Speaking in his personal capacity, Bozimo said the entire Ijaw people were committed to the Jonathan 2015 project.
Bozimo, who urged the President to contest again in 2015, expressed optimism that Jonathan would win by a landslide.
"We are totally committed to the Jonathan project. All of us in Ijaw land are with Jonathan. We are urging him to contest and it has to be done peacefully because he is going to win," Bozimo stated.
In his goodwill message, Kuku congratulated the new leadership of IYC and called on the people of Ijaw to unite for peace, progress and development of the nation.

170 YEARS OF TIFFANY: Before hitting the myriad events Monday night, including the Whitney Museum gala, Lighthouse International's Lightyears benefit and the party for Hubertus von Hohenlohe at Bergdorf Goodman, the social set stopped by the Park Avenue Armory to fete Tiffany & Co.'s John Loring. Jamee Gregory, Nina Griscom and Amy Fine Collins gathered in the building's Louis Comfort Tiffany room to browse Loring's latest tome, "Tiffany Style: 170 Years of Design." And though uniformed waiters were offering trays of pigs-in-a-blanket rather than caviar, Loring insisted the snacks were not a sign of hard times. "That's just American folklore," he said.

KIMBERLY MARTINEAU Staff writer
Section: CAPITAL REGION, Page: B1
Date: Thursday, July 9, 1998
A 12-story hotel that will be the cornerstone of a $100 million plan to expand Crossgates Mall will stand 171 feet tall. That's 418 feet shorter than Albany's 42-story Corning Tower.
The 200-room hotel, which owners hope will cause hundreds to dally at the mall overnight, would exemplify the mall's transformation from a mega-retail center into a tourist destination, said John Safe, director of development at Pyramid Cos. ``It provides an architectural landmark,'' he said Wednesday after a meeting with Times Union editors. ``It provides an exclamation mark at the end of a sentence. It makes the project a signature project. Malls are typically precast. And here we'd have a glass tower.''
The plan also calls for parking decks that would accommodate 2,000 cars, expanding the ramp off the Northway from one to four lanes and the access road surrounding the mall to six lanes in places.
Town officials will host two neighborhood meetings on the project: at 7:30 p.m. July 21 at the Westmere Fire Department and at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 11 at Christ the King Church. The zoning board meets at 7:30 p.m. July 23 in Town Hall to discuss the project.
A major concern raised by residents has been traffic and who would make road improvements. Safe promised that extensive road improvements would be made -- and paid ``ultimately by us.''
Pyramid continues to challenge the assessed value of its 200-store mall, which was $205.5 million last July. For the last six years, Crossgates has argued that it is about 40 percent overassessed. So far, the town and school district have spent over $200,000 defending its assessment. But that shouldn't affect the expansion, Safe said.
``No matter what, the fair taxes will double,'' he said. ``Even if we win the reduction.''
In April, Pyramid put its mall empire of Crossgates and 20 other malls on the mark

Patrice Bergeron won the Selke Trophy for the second time Tuesday.
The Bruins were big winners in Las Vegas on Tuesday night, and didn't even have to toss a quarter in a slot machine.
For those of you who didn't put yourself through the torture of the actual show (although you did miss Cuba Gooding Jr., so correct that), Tuukka Rask took home his first Vezina Trophy and Patrice Bergeron added to his ever-growing trophy case -- trophy room at this point -- with his second Selke Trophy as well as the NHL Foundation Player Award for his community service work.
Zdeno Chara finished second to Duncan Keith for the Norris.
Other award winners included Sidney Crosby (Hart), Nathan MacKinnon (Calder), Patrick Roy (Jack Adams), Ryan O'Reilly (Lady Byng) and Bob Murray (GM).
Here's a look at how the voting played out, with Bruins highlighted a few thoughts on each.
Hart Trophy
Pts. (1st-2nd-3rd-4th-5th)
1. Sidney Crosby, PIT 1341 (128-8-1-0-0)
2. Ryan Getzlaf, ANA 877 (5-96-28-5-0)
3. Claude Giroux, PHI 435 (2-15-42-27-19)
4. Semyon Varlamov, COL 256 (1-8-23-22-9)
5. Patrice Bergeron, BOS 137 (0-4-9-17-13)
6. Tyler Seguin, DAL 84 (0-1-6-12-11)
7. Joe Pavelski, SJ 71 (0-0-3-11-23)
8. Anze Kopitar, LA 58 (0-0-4-9-11)
9. Jonathan Toews, CHI 53 (0-2-4-4-7)
10. Ben Bishop, TB 52 (0-0-5-6-9)
11. Tuukka Rask, BOS 35 (0-1-2-5-3)
12. Jamie Benn, DAL 35 (0-1-2-4-6)
13. Corey Perry, ANA 29 (0-0-3-4-2)
14. Carey Price, MTL 20 (1-0-1-0-5)
15. Duncan Keith, CHI 19 (0-0-1-3-5)
16. Gustav Nyquist, DET 13 (0-1-0-2-0)
17. Matt Duchene, COL 11 (0-0-1-1-3)
18. Alex Steen, STL 9 (0-0-1-1-1)
19. John Tavares, NYI 9 (0-0-1-1-1)
20. Patrick Sharp, CHI 7 (0-0-0-2-1)
21. Shea Weber, NSH 4 (0-0-0-1-1)
22. Joe Thornton, SJ 3 (0-0-0-0-3)
23. Jaromir Jagr, NJ 1 (0-0-0-0-1)
23. Patrick Marleau, SJ 1 (0-0-0-0-1)
23. Alex Ovechkin, WSH 1 (0-0-0-0-1)
23. Ryan Suter, MIN 1 (0-0-0-0-1)
- This was a no-brainer after Crosby won the scoring race by 17 points over Getzlaf. What's most remarkable is this is Crosby's first Hart since 2007, a drought lengthened by Crosby's concussion problems. What were the odds being given out seven years ago that it would take this long for Crosby to claim a second?
- Here's a case where the Vezina-winning goalie was dwarfed by his runner-up in the MVP ballot. It makes sense in this case that Semyon Varlamov was well ahead of Rask given that Varlamov led the league in shots against for a division-winning club.
- Bergeron's late offensive surge gave him tons of momentum for a top-five finish and the votes cast for him were well-deserved. Yet even in the Boston dressing room, there is some head-shaking that Chara did not merit a single vote. His teammates consider him their best player.
- Blatant example No. 12,342 of why all ballots need to be publicized: Carey Price received a first-place vote. Oy.
Vezina Trophy
Pts. 1st-2nd-3rd
1. Tuukka Rask, BOS 103 (16-6-5)
2. Semyon Varlamov, COL 90 (9-13-6)
3. Ben Bishop, TB 32 (1-6-9)
4. Carey Price, MTL 26 (2-3-7)
5. Jonathan Quick, LA 9 (1-1-1)
6. Henrik Lundqvist, NYR 5 (1-0-0)
7. Steve Mason, PHI 3 (0-1-0)
8. Sergei Bobrovsky, CBJ 1 (0-0-1)
8. Kari Lehtonen, DAL 1 (0-0-1)
- This is voted on by general managers, and it's another relatively easy choice, although Varlamov's heavy workload made it fairly close. Rask led the NHL in GAA, save percentage and shutouts among those with over 50 starts. He was even throughout the year, one in which the Bruins utilized multiple young defensemen.
- He only appeared in 45 games, but a little surprised Cory Schneider didn't get any votes after 1.97 GAA.
Norris Trophy
Pts. 1st-2nd-3rd-4th-5th
1. Duncan Keith, CHI 1033 (68-35-17-7-2)
2. Zdeno Chara, BOS 667 (21-39-22-19-17)
3. Shea Weber, NSH 638 (26-23-29-19-15)
4. Ryan Suter, MIN 351 (9-12-20-22-11)
5. Alex Pietrangelo, STL 304 (3-13-18-25-18)
6. Drew Doughty, LA 284 (8-6-17-18-23)
7. Erik Karlsson, OTT 70 (0-5-3-4-8)
8. Ryan McDonagh, NYR 53 (0-1-4-5-11)
9. Victor Hedman, TB 42 (1-1-0-5-10)
10. Mark Giordano, CGY 36 (1-0-2-3-7)
11. Matt Niskanen, PIT 36 (0-1-2-5-4)
12. Marc-Edouard Vlasic, SJ 21 (0-1-0-3-5)
13. Niklas Kronwall, DET 10 (0-0-1-1-2)
14. O. Ekman-Larsson, PHX 6 (0-0-1-0-1)
14. P.K. Subban, MTL 6 (0-0-1-0-1)
16. Andrei Markov, MTL 3 (0-0-0-1-0)
17. Jay Bouwmeester, STL 1 (0-0-0-0-1)
17. Brent Seabrook, CHI 1 (0-0-0-0-1)
- For the third straight year, the best offensive candidate wins this one. Keith's 55 assists led all blue-liners, and the balloting wasn't really close. Keith did not play against the top competition on the Blackhawks. After Erik Karlsson and P.K. Subban the last two years, it's another peg in the argument for a separate 'best offensive defenseman' award.
- That being said, wise people can vote in very different ways. While 21 voters had Chara first, nearly as many (19) didn't vote for him at all.
- A little disappointing Mark Giordano finished 10th. He didn't deserve to win, but a higher finish would have been nice to see.
Calder Trophy
Pts. (1st-2nd-3rd-4th-5th)
1. Nathan MacKinnon, COL 1347 (130-6-1-0-0)
2. Ondrej Palat, TB 791 (5-78-29-15-5)
3. Tyler Johnson, TB 352 (0-13-29-30-26)
4. Torey Krug, BOS 287 (1-9-23-25-24)
5. Olli Maatta, PIT 225 (0-11-18-16-10)
6. Jacob Trouba, WPG 213 (1-11-17-9-14)
7. Hampus Lindholm, ANA 208 (0-7-15-22-18)
8. Sean Monahan, CGY 38 (0-2-2-3-5)
9. Frederik Andersen, ANA 25 (0-0-0-4-13)
10. Chris Kreider, NYR 20 (0-0-1-3-6)
11. Seth Jones, NSH 15 (0-0-0-4-3)
12. Valeri Nichushkin, DAL 14 (0-0-0-3-5)
13. Nick Bjugstad, FLA 9 (0-0-1-1-1)
14. Tomas Hertl, SJ 8 (0-0-1-1-0)
15. Danny DeKeyser, DET 5 (0-0-0-1-2)
16. Aleksander Barkov, FLA 1 (0-0-0-0-1)
16. Boone Jenner, CBJ 1 (0-0-0-0-1)
16. Martin Jones, LA 1 (0-0-0-0-1)
16. Darcy Kuemper, MIN 1 (0-0-0-0-1)
16. Eddie Lack, VAN 1 (0-0-0-0-1)
- Another no-brainer for the writers. Hard to argue with any of the winners here, really.
- Torey Krug finishes fourth in the balloting. He could flip with Olli Maatta easily, but not a big deal.
- Again, who's giving Jacob Trouba a first-place vote?
Selke Trophy
Pts. (1st-2nd-3rd-4th-5th)
1. Patrice Bergeron, BOS 1,283 (112-21-2-2-0)
2. Anze Kopitar, LA 840 (20-66-26-15-3)
3. Jonathan Toews, CHI 624 (2-36-57-20-7)
4. David Backes, STL 415 (3-5-31-59-18)
5. Marian Hossa, CHI 66 (0-5-2-2-15)
6. Ryan O'Reilly, COL 58 (0-0-3-10-13)
7. Tomas Plekanec, MTL 45 (0-0-4-5-10)
8. Joe Pavelski, SJ 32 (0-0-2-3-13)
9. Sean Couturier, PHI 30 (0-1-2-1-10)
10. Ryan Getzlaf, ANA 22 (0-1-1-2-4)
11. Ondrej Palat, TB 19 (0-0-1-3-5)
12. David Krejci, BOS 16 (0-0-2-1-3)
13. Pavel Datsyuk, DET 11 (0-1-0-1-1)
14. Antoine Vermette, PHX 11 (0-0-0-3-2)
15. Alex Steen, STL 9 (0-0-1-1-1)
16. Paul Stastny, COL 8 (0-1-0-0-1)
17. Frans Nielsen, NYI 8 (0-0-1-1-0)
18. Sidney Crosby, PIT 8 (0-0-0-2-2)
19. Tyler Johnson, TB 6 (0-0-1-0-1)
20. Brandon Dubinsky, CBJ 6 (0-0-0-2-0)
- This is for defensive honors, but no doubt that Bergeron's 30-goal season helped make this such a blowout. This has become the best two-way center award, and his offense exploded down the stretch. Pierre McGuire deserves a beer from the Bruins for campaigning for Bergeron on national TV as well.
- Nice to see Marian Hossa finish in the top five. He's been one of the best defensive forwards for his entire career, and if voters weren't obsessed with giving this to a center, he could actually win.
- David Krejci led the league at plus-39, and a 12th-place finish is a nice reward for committing to being a two-way player and having his best all-around season. Still, two third-place votes?
- Separated from Bergeron, Tyler Seguin did not receive any Selke votes. So, there's that.
Jack Adams Award
Pts. (1st-2nd-3rd)
1. Patrick Roy, COL 399 (68-19-2)
2. Mike Babcock, DET 163 (11-31-15)
3. Jon Cooper, TB 136 (5-29-24)
4. Claude Julien, BOS 68 (6-8-14)
5. Bruce Boudreau, ANA 24 (1-4-7)
6. Craig Berube, PHI 23 (1-4-6)
7. Ken Hitchcock, STL 14 (2-0-4)
8. Todd Richards, CBJ 6 (0-0-6)
9. Joel Quenneville, CHI 5 (1-0-0)
10. Lindy Ruff, DAL 5 (0-0-5)
11. Dan Bylsma, PIT 4 (0-0-4)
11. Todd McLellan, SJ 4 (0-0-4)
13. Mike Yeo, MIN 2 (0-0-2)
14. Michel Therrien, MTL 1 (0-0-1)
14. Barry Trotz, NSH 1 (0-0-1)
- This is voted by broadcasters, who didn't screw up by overlooking Roy, who won a division that included the Blackhawks and Blues.
- A fourth-place finish for Claude Julien seems appropriate. He won the Presidents' Trophy on the backs of established veterans, but also had to implement several newcomers and deal with a defensive core that often included three rookies and a 20-year-old.
- Dan Bylsma and Barry Trotz both get voted for, and were fired shortly later. Cruel business, coaching.
Lady Byng Trophy
Pts. 1st-2nd-3rd-4th-5th
1. Ryan O'Reilly, COL 1181 (110-5-8-1-3)
2. Martin St. Louis, NYR 358 (4-20-27-11-10)
3. Patrick Marleau, SJ 323 (3-15-23-21-10)
4. Tyler Seguin, DAL 289 (2-23-15-7-12)
5. Frans Nielsen, NYI 182 (1-15-6-9-10)
6. Marcus Johansson, WSH 128 (1-7-7-9-7)
7. Teemu Selanne, ANA 115 (5-4-4-4-5)
8. Matt Duchene, COL 104 (1-3-8-9-6)
9. Daniel Alfredsson, DET 97 (1-5-6-6-4)
10. Anze Kopitar, LA 61 (2-4-1-2-2)
11. David Krejci, BOS 57 (0-4-2-5-4)
12. Jason Pominville, MIN 51 (0-2-3-4-10)
13. Patrice Bergeron, BOS 42 (0-4-2-1-1)
14. Patrick Kane, CHI 39 (0-1-2-6-4)
15. Jordan Eberle, EDM 34 (0-3-1-2-2)
16. Ben Smith, CHI 33 (0-2-3-1-1)
17. Jaromir Jagr, NJ 30 (2-0-2-0-0)
18. Pavel Datsyuk, DET 29 (0-3-0-2-2)
19. Duncan Keith, CHI 25 (0-3-0-1-1)
20. Marc-Edouard Vlasic, SJ 23 (1-1-1-0-1)
- Commit one penalty in a season, and you win this award. That's the deal.
- David Krejci and Patrice Bergeron get some votes, but for the money here, Loui Eriksson could make a run at this award next season.
General Manager of the Year
Pts. (1st-2nd-3rd)
1. Bob Murray, ANA 66 (9-6-3)
2. Marc Bergevin, MTL 49 (7-4-2)
3. Dean Lombardi, LA 33 (3-4-6)
4. Stan Bowman, CHI 29 (3-4-2)
5. Jim Nill, DAL 27 (4-0-7)
6. Peter Chiarelli, BOS 23 (2-3-4)
7. Chuck Fletcher, MIN 21 (2-3-2)
8. Steve Yzerman, TB 19 (2-2-3)
9. Ken Holland, DET 14 (1-3-0)
10. Greg Sherman, COL 10 (2-0-0)
11. Glen Sather, NYR 9 (0-2-3)
12. Jarmo Kekalainen, CBJ 8 (0-2-2)
13. Doug Armstrong, STL 6 (0-2-0)
14. Dale Tallon, FLA 1 (0-0-1)
- Bob Murray's Ducks got to the second round, so there's that. Thought here is Nill deserved it.
- Chiarelli's sixth-place finish is on the back of signing Jarome Iginla and importing new defensemen without losing a step in the regular season. He could've gone higher, but sixth seems fair.

South Bend, Ind. A South Bend man was convicted Thursday for his role in a 2012 shooting that left two teens dead.
A jury found 27-year-old Charles Moore guilty of one count of robbery and two counts each of murder and felony murder. The state has requested that he spend life in prison without parole.
Prosecutors will present evidence in support of that sentence to the jury when that phase of the trial continues Friday.
Moore's co-defendant, 22-year-old Jermon Gavin, is also facing robbery and murder charges in the case.
The pair's admitted accomplice, 21-year-old Rakeem White, has already learned his punishment for helping the two men by giving false information to police during their investigation.
He was sentenced last September to four years in prison after pleading guilty to "assisting a criminal."
The shootings happened back in January of 2012 on the city's northwest side.
19-year-old Jazmin Conlee and 19-year-old Alejandro Tinoco were shot to death inside of their home in the 1100 block of North Adams Street.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -- Green Bay Packers running back Vernand Morency will miss "a couple of weeks" of training camp with a knee injury.
So says coach Mike McCarthy.
McCarthy declined to elaborate on the injury, but did say it was "a little more serious" than the team initially thought.
Morency was hurt in the Packers' first practice on Saturday and the injury previously was described as a bruised knee.
Morency gained 421 yards in 96 carries last season as Ahman Green's backup.
Green signed with Houston in the off-season.

In a world of super-size everything, it might be easy to believe that bigger is always better…but I think sometimes it's good to scale things down a bit. I love looking for inspiration in scrapbook layouts and figuring out how to translate certain design elements, techniques, and styles onto cards. Usually, down-sizing is part of this translation process. Today I'm sharing a card where I employed this process.
My original inspiration came from this layout by Heidi Sonbul - it is featured in her Signature Series book (you can find it HERE- it's amazing!):
I just loved the way Heidi arranged the strips of patterned paper to make the fun eye-catching design on the right side of her page and I thought it would make a fun card-front. Here's how I did it:
1. Gather several coordinating patterned papers and cut several strips. (the strips do not have to be exactly the same width)
2. Cut a piece of cardstock to 4″ x 5 1/4″ (this is slightly smaller than the card base will be). Draw a pencil line right down the center.
3. Start arranging the paper strips on either side of the pencil line (consider using pre-cut strips and strips with decorative edges as well).
4. When you are happy with the arrangment, start cutting the strips at an angle (use the pencil line as a guide for cutting the angle)
5. Attach the strips to the cardstock block with adhesive
6. After everything is attached, it will look crazy like this:
And when you flip it over, it will look like this:
Don't worry – just grab some scissors and trim the outside edges
Now it looks all nice and clean and pretty!
7. Add any additional embellishments (like the "hello" paper clip)
8. Adhere the block to the front of a white card base
9. Add a fun paper block to the inside of the card for an unexpected surprise!
That's it! The down-sized design is now complete!
All of the fun papers and embellishments I used for this project were also designed by Heidi Sonbul for GCD Studios - she is one talented gal!

Shady Records' Cashis recently opened up about surviving budget cuts from Eminem's label months after the departures of ex-labelmates Stat Quo, Bobby Creekwater and Obie Trice.
According to Cashis, his ability to maintain an Internet presence has secured his spot on Shady's roster.
"You can get X'd off a label, not because you are wack but just for budget reasons. Thankfully and luckily that didn't happen for me because I keep us relevant with a buzz on the internet and on mixtapes and that's what I do and my job. When Em comes out he makes a big splash. That's a blessing and that's what my job has been. To do whatever it takes to keep us visible, until it's my time to come out. I knew as long as I did my part we were cool." (All Hip Hop)
Cashis also killed misconceptions of all signed artists living the luxury life.
"People think this is an emotional business and its really not. Me that's what I thought and I used to act impulsively and on emotion and not act on strategy. But now it makes it more fun and more complex also. I know a lot of artists that are free agents that are cool artists, and its not because they aren't talented. Its just because labels aren't offering those big deals and people think its going to be a Bump J or 50 Cent type deal or some million dollar record deal. That was at a time when more people in the general society were spending more money and making more money. So you have to do what you can to keep yourself at a low cost to your label and to remain highly effective. People miss the real hip-hop, but if you Hollywood with it and you think you gonna be sitting on 10, 15, 20k a month with Ferraris and you aren't selling Ferrari numbers then you forever gonna be on that street corner, and life is short on that street corner." (All Hip Hop)
Last year, Cashis shared his thoughts on why artists like Trice and Creekwater parted ways with Shady.
"That's probably it they didn't want to wait any more," he said in an interview. "Patience is a virtue like you could be upset with your momma, but at the end of the day that's not what you feel. I can't really speak on their situation like why they left or whatever. Obie is my partner straight up he's a real dude. He's doing good so some things are meant to be but I can't speak on other peoples situation. I support them in whatever they do and no one has ever left Shady Records talking really crazy so it's always a mutual split." (Q The Question)
With a roster including 50 Cent and D12, the label previously released artists Stat Quo and Obie Trice in 2009.
"Shady Records has agreed to allow Obie Trice to pursue his craftin a different forum free from the constraints of the current major label model," Em's manager Paul Rosenberg said in a statement. "Eminem will continue to support and work with Obie on many levels of his career. He remains a close friend and member of the Shady family." (Rap Basement)

JERUSALEM (AP) Pope Francis has prayed at Jerusalem's Western Wall, the holiest place where Jews can pray, bowing his head as he touched the wall in the same gesture used a day earlier to pray at the Israeli barrier surrounding the biblical West Bank town of Bethlehem.
Francis spent a few minutes on Monday before the only remains of the biblical Second Temple and left a note inside an envelope in one of the cracks between the stones.
When St. John Paul II visited in 2000, he left a note asking forgiveness for the suffering inflicted on Jews by Christians over history. Pope Benedict XVI's note prayed for peace for Christians, Muslims and Jews alike. The Vatican hasn't said if the contents of Francis' prayer would be released.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.
Pope Francis on Monday urged his "brother" Muslims to never abuse God's name through violence as he opened the third and final day of his Mideast pilgrimage with a visit to the Dome of the Rock, the iconic shrine located at the third-holiest spot in Islam.
Francis took off his shoes to step into the gold-topped dome, which enshrines the rock where Muslims believe the Prophet Mohammad ascended to heaven.
The mosque complex, known to Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary and to Jews as the Temple Mount, is at the heart of the territorial and religious disputes between Israel and its Arab neighbors.
Speaking to the grand mufti of Jerusalem and other Muslim authorities, Francis deviated from his prepared remarks to refer not just to his "dear friends" but "dear brothers."
"May we respect and love one another as brothers and sisters," he said, and added, "May we learn to understand the suffering of others! May no one abuse the name of God through violence!"
After the brief visit, Francis headed to the Western Wall, the only remains of the biblical Second Temple and the holiest place where Jews can pray.

Rentalot Plus
* Online availability and enquiries
* Online booking with payment via PayPal, Skrill, or PayPlug
* Search on availability, occupancy or feature
* Choice of displays including clickable Daily Calendar View
* Full back end administration system with reports and charts
* Any number of properties
* Multi-currency with any number of currencies
* Flexible pricing - every day can have a different price
* Flexible discounting for multi-period and/or early bookings
* Flexible payment scheduling
* Automatic exchange rate updates
* Automatic payment due reminder emails
* Highly configurable
* Multi-language with full JoomFish and FaLang support
* Detailed PDF User Guide
Rentalot Plus builds on our popular free Rentalot system to deliver a full-featured self-booking property rental system.
The extension is very easy to configure en looks great in front- and backend. The only thing (for me) that is missing is the ability to set up multiple booking periods (week, weekend, midweek) but this also has the developers attention.
I am looking forward to new versions.
This provides the perfect balance. You can use multiple currencies, have fully flexible renting periods. You can have calendar views or table views of your availability with or without prices.
You can define extras, e.g. towel packs, extra beds and price them each, by week etc.
You can set discounts for multiple booking periods, and setup a payment schedule (e.g. 30% on booking, balance 4 weeks before etc.)
You can choose to show booked periods or not, show unit descriptions or not, provide text before and after the calendar/table.
It has flexible forms built in to capture enquiry/booking details, flexible email options.
There are a few reports available too, though I haven't used these yet.
You can enable online payments through Paypal/moneybookers or the system is very useful even without this.
It also comes with the most important thing - good documentation and a developer who takes pride in his work, and fixes bugs quickly.
Rentalot Plus is incredible value too.
Can't recommend this highly enough. Thanks Chris.
(As there are spa hotels with 7*, why not to give it to an outstanding extension)
It offers more than relaxing massage, jacuzzi and big swimming pool below palm trees. Much more I will say.
Working straight 12 hours on implementing Rentalot Plus on my site (ok, I admit, I had some brake time), and it is done, I mean d.o.n.e. Perfect, works like a charm, intuitive, well documented, and what is the best thing I have 3 apartments live one site, ready to be booked.
Tested all I can think of, and it is not showing me any errors. Now, I can go to sleep, and I will not be surprised if I get some apartment booked, and what is the best, system email send is personalized so well, that customer will have a great feeling of fast response.
What should be added to Rentalot Plus. I cannot think of it right now, as for 35 EUR you cannot ask for more.
Great job, best extension I have ever purchased.
I am using Joomla 1.6 since January this year, love it, and 'am planning to move all my other websites to it soon (just about 10 other sites :)
Cheers to Joomla 1.6 and Rentalot Plus
You made my day easy and busy
Jim Alexander
If you are planning on renting out properties or rooms etc, then I really do recommend this component...And I've not even needed to use support yet as the 70 manual is so well written! Well Done.
We take great pride in our software and in the support we provide. If you encounter a bug or a problem in any of our software, we will fix it. If you encounter a usage difficulty or ambiguity, we will help you, and we then amend our documentation to provide the same help to all our users.
This user did not report any kind of bug or problem, he wanted help to implement a complex new feature. In this case we felt that this went far beyond the remit of normal support, and we declined. We do have to draw a line between support and consultancy, and we are happy that we made the right decision in this case.
The price is more than worth the results you will have.
It needs good documentation to enable it to be set-up to fit your personal requirements.
Well Recommended
Chris has been very helpful modifying code to suit my server host and more importantly very quick at doing so.
If you need a booking extension look no further!
(Note to all devs - if you have masses of features in your extensions, you may be making the user's life worse, not better, by taking up too much of their time!)
This component will do the job nicely, however!
What is more, because I am an idiot and get fussy over all kinds of things, the developer has been very receptive to ideas and I have watched the development go from strength to strength.
Thanks guys.

Regular readers of my columns know that I try to have a least one article a week dedicated to $5 stocks that have cheap valuations and some recent positive catalysts that could move the stock. The logic being once an equity achieves a $5 handle, more institutions can come in and be buyers. This strategy has turned up some of my biggest winners over the years. Here are this week's $5 stocks that I think can move higher.
Entropic Communications (NASDAQ:ENTR) is a fabless semiconductor company that designs, develops, and markets system solutions to enable connected home entertainment in the United States and internationally.
4 reasons ENTR is a good play between $5 and $6 a share:
- DA Davidson just upgraded the shares to a "Buy" and raised its price target to $7 based on the company's being a core supplier for boxes that Time Warner Cable (NYSE:TWC) intends to use to support a planned roll-out of its all-digital service.
- The stock is tracking to over 30% revenue growth in FY2012 and analysts expect more than 20% sales increases in FY2013. The stock sells for a five year projected PEG of under 1 (.85).
- The company has a solid balance sheet with over $100mm in net cash on the books (more than 20% of the current market capitalization).
- ENTR sells for 10 times operating cash flow and less than 14 times forward earnings, a discount to its five year average (22.9).
TriQuint Semiconductor (NASDAQ:TQNT) provides radio frequency solutions and technology for communications, defense, and aerospace companies worldwide.
4 reasons TQNT is a solid pick at $5 a share:
- Demand for the iPhone5 continues to be strong. Jefferies believes Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) just increased its build rate to 60mm to 65mm for the quarter. Given Triquent is a supplier for the iPhone5, this is a positive for the earnings and margins for the company.
- The company has a robust balance sheet with over $160mm in net cash on the books (around 20% of market capitalization).
- The stock sells for just 91% of book value and analysts expect the company to book over 10% revenue growth in FY2013.
- TQNT is selling near the bottom of its five year valuation range based on P/S, P/CF, and P/B. Insiders have also been consistent net buyers of the stock for the last year.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) - A New Orleans police officer has been arrested on suspicion of writing bogus traffic tickets to collect extra pay.
Officer Glen Gross was arrested Thursday and booked on charges of "injuring public records" and malfeasance in office.
Gross is accused of writing 215 traffic tickets for seat-belt violations by non-existent drivers. Police said he started writing the fake tickets in June to justify overtime pay.
Gross, a 22-year department veteran, has been suspended without pay.
Police said the department launched an internal investigation after a supervisor reported suspicions about Gross' conduct.

Stealing From Pirates
launched as
Pay Evil unto Evil
From YKTTW
Working Title: Evil Unto Evil:
From YKTTW
Conversation in the Main Page
. Could someone who's familiar with the
Sword of Truth
series integrate this?
Actually, it's framed as both, and described as the only way the protagonists can have a hope of ending the war favorably; in fact, Richard says explicitly that they shouldn't kill civilians if they don't absolutely have to. Besides, whether the soldiers are brainwashed or not, they're still soldiers and they're still invading with the full intention of wiping out the "good" people. You really can't fault a commander for ordering his army to kill enemy soldiers, can you?
The Colour of Heartache: I think this page could do with a little work to make it clear that this justification isn't always flimsy and stupid but rather a complex ethical question that is always unique to every event: For example Batman killing the Joker is probably justified because no prison can hold him and the shear number of lives it would save in the long run, Robin Hood killing to get the gold and return it to the poor is probably not.
: This doesn't seem right. The morality of the people they kill doesn't come into play, it's pure 'whatever has to be done.' They just end up bumping into nothing but the seedy elements of society all the time for plot purposes. The high school buddies only seem safe because they don't have an evidence trail that leads to them, and through them, to the Connors.
In the
The Sarah Connor Chronicles
, most of the witnesses murdered by Cameron and Derek for being in the wrong place at the wrong time are either assholes or petty criminals of one sort or another. Sure, in many cases they were unarmed and nonthreatening, but, hell, killing a few dirtbags is a small price to pay to ensure the survival of mankind's savior. Cameron and Derek notably never kill any of John Connor's high school buddies (yet), despite the fact they're just as much a security risk.
Hell, Cameron and Derek have commited WAY more murders (if by murders you mean the execution of unarmed noncombatants) than the actual Terminator, Cromartie, who seems to generally avoid wasting bullets on noncombatants.
: I'm not sure the Burn Notice example fits. If killing antagonists for being bad counts as Evil Unto Evil, wouldn't virtually every non-childrens show ever made qualify as this trope?
Eric DVH
: Hmm
, you're absolutely right. If someone is backed into a binary choice of either allowing an illegal murder to occur or attempting to incapacitate the assailant, and ends up killing the assailant to prevent the murder, I literally can't think of a single court in all human history that would punish them for it. Rewrote the following:
Truth in Television
: most Western governments recognize situations in which typically evil things such as murder or theft are instead lawful or, in rare cases, morally obligated. Lethal force in self-defense or the defense-of-others would be the most obvious, although it's on the decline outside of the United States.
This is ridiculous. Of all the moral codes ever produced by mankind, less than 10% would regard killing in self defense in any way "evil." In many codes, NOT killing to defend the lifes of others, assuming you have the ability to intervene, is worse than killing the innocents yourself.
Only western countries? Do you really think that absolutely no Middle-Eastern, Near-Eastern, or Far-Eastern countries were ever involved in those kinds of atrocities? It's a human nature thing.
Except for that little thing called "war" that nearly every country gets around to sooner or later.
Actually, the initiation of war is a crime against peace under a number of statutes, most notably the
United Nations
charter, and was used against the axis powers at the end of
World War II
. Anyone carrying out an aggressive war of conquest is a thus a criminal. Unfortunately, while such acts are crimes, and are in theory punishable by the ICC under the Rome Statute, the ICC can't actually prosecute such cases because
none of the U.N. member states have as yet agreed upon a definition of crimes of aggression in legal terms
Also, the original meaning of outlaw was a status inflicted on criminals (by means of a Writ of Outlawry), which allowed anybody to do whatever they wanted on them, as they were "no longer protected by law".
Wanderhome: Erm, call me a Bowdlerizer, but isn't it a tad extreme to have a page image showings someone partially disembowelled, with their intestines looped around tree limbs?
codenamehunterwolf: You're a Bowdlerizer. Here's another image from the same series, not quite as extreme but certainly gets it's point across.

Cant (road/rail)
The cant of a railway track (also referred to as superelevation) or a road (sometimes referred to as cross slope or camber) is the difference in elevation (height) between the two edges. This is normally done where the railway or road is curved; raising the outer rail or the outer edge of the road providing a banked turn, thus allowing vehicles to maneuver through the curve at higher speeds than would otherwise be possible if the surface was flat or level.
On railways, cant helps a train steer around a curve, keeping the wheel flanges from touching the rails, minimising friction and wear.
The main functions of cant are to:
- Better distribute load across both rails
- Reduce rail- and wheel-wear
- Neutralise the effect of lateral forces
- Improve passenger comfort
The necessary cant in a curve depends on the expected speed of the trains and the radius. However, it may be necessary to select a compromise value at design time, for example if slow-moving trains may occasionally use tracks intended for high-speed trains.
Generally the aim is for trains to run without flange contact, which also depends on the tyre profile of the wheels. Allowance has to be made for the different speeds of trains. Slower trains will tend to make flange contact with the inner rail on curves, while faster trains will tend to ride outwards and make contact with the outer rail. Either contact causes wear and tear and may lead to derailment. Many high-speed lines do not permit slower freight trains, particularly with heavier axle loads. In some cases, the impact is reduced by the use of flanges lubrication.
Ideally, the track should have sleepers (railroad ties) at a closer spacing and a greater depth of ballast to accommodate the increased forces exerted in the curve.
At the ends of a curve, the amount of cant cannot change from zero to its maximum immediately. It must change (ramp) gradually in a track transition curve. The length of the transition depends on the maximum allowable speed—the higher the speed, the greater length is required.
In the United States, maximum speed is subject to specific rules. The maximum speed of a train on curved track for a given cant deficiency or unbalanced superelevation is determined by the following formula:[1]
where is the height in inches that the outside rail is "superelevated" above the inside rail on a curve, is the unbalanced superelevation or cant deficiency in inches and is the degree of curvature in degrees per 30 m is in mph.
For the United States standard maximum unbalanced superelevation of 75 mm (3 in), the formula is:
The maximum value of cant (the height of the outer rail above the inner rail) for a standard gauge railway is about 150 mm (6 in).[citation needed] For high-speed railways in Europe, maximum cant is 180 mm (7 in) (when slow freight trains are not allowed).[2]
Track unbalanced superelevation (cant deficiency) in the United States is restricted to 75 mm (3 in), though 102 mm (4.0 in) is permissible by waiver. The maximum value for European railways vary by country, some of which have curves with over 280 mm (11 in) of unbalanced superelevation to permit high-speed transportation. The highest values are only for tilting trains, because it would be too uncomfortable for passengers.[3]
In Australia, ARTC is increasing speed around curves sharper than an 800-metre (2,625 ft) radius by replacing wooden sleepers with concrete ones so that the cant can be increased.[4]
Rail cant[edit]
The rails themselves are now usually canted inwards by about 10 to 5 per cent.
In 1925 about 15 of 36 major railways had adopted this practice.[5]
In civil engineering, cant is often referred to as cross slope or camber. It helps rainwater drain from the road surface. Along straight or gently curved sections, the middle of the road is normally higher than the edges. This is called "normal crown" and helps shed rainwater off the sides of the road. During road works that involve lengths of temporary carriageway, the slope may be the opposite to normal – i.e. with the outer edge higher – which causes vehicles to lean towards oncoming traffic: in the UK this is indicated on warning signs as 'adverse camber'.
On more severe bends, the outside edge of the curve is raised, or superelevated, to help vehicles around the curve. The amount of superelevation increases with its design speed and with curve sharpness.

Why are they surprised?
Regarding House GOP threat of government shutdown or government default, several commentators have questioned GOP's willingness/ability to govern. Why? Republican congressmen routinely campaign on anti-government platforms. The Federal Guv'mint is evil, sucking the life blood from all true Americans. Why is it now surprising to learn they were serious?

Is there a Junior's in Hollywood, and is it affiliated in some way with the Junior's in downtown Brooklyn? At this point nothing would surprise me. Don't get me wrong, Junior's isn't bad, and it's a pretty good facsimile of what the style commonly known as NY cheesecake is supposed to taste like, but it lacks the majestic density of the gen-yoo-wine Lindy's article, not to mention the murbteig-ey sort of pastry crust. In fact, I was distressed to discover, within the past year, that Junior's has changed their crust formula yet again, this time to a thin sponge-cake layer, like one layer of a seven-layer cake. > Had Sam Goldwyn had his temper tantrum about Cheesecake instead of > Chicken Soup ever day in perpetuity in the late lamented MGM > Commissary, > this tragedy might have been averted. The MGM cuisiniers surely > did not > have the Lindy's recipe or anything resembling it. I seem to recall that Lindy's recipe was published in some magazines and newspapers early on in the game; the family legend is that both my grandmother and mother were using it as The Cheesecake Recipe as of the 1930's. I pulled one off the Web a while back, and called my mother (who is 89 and frighteningly sharper than any tack of my acquaintance) to confirm the likely veracity of the webbed recipe. She proceeded to quote from memory the entire recipe as she recalled it; apart from some minor textual differences the quantities, method, and cooking times were identical, so apparently this is the real thing, or at least the one that was published. It might not be Lindy's Real recipe with the secret ingredients (if any), but having tried the real thing in Lindy's when they still existed, I can say it's pretty much indistinguishable. > But I bet Adamantius does. Give, schweethaht. > > Selene, playing Tablero with Big Julie's Dice. Don't you trust me? Naturally I have every confidence in you. There is some concern among the guys and dolls on Broadway that Johnny Brannigan, the strong-arm cop, may not share this confidence, but it is generally agreed upon by one and all that cheesecake is a matter of honor, and that one never does well to welsh on a cheesecake concern. > Lindy's Cheesecake Recipe > > > Ingredients: > CRUST: > 1 c. sifted flour > 1/4 c. sugar > 1 tsp. grated lemon peel > 1/2 tsp. vanilla > 1 egg yolk > 1/4 c. butter, softened > > FILLING: > 5 pkgs.

DAVIE, Fla. — Receiver Marvin McNutt, who caught a game-winning 56-yard touchdown pass in the Miami Dolphins' final exhibition, is among 22 players released by the team to reach the 53-man roster limit.
Third-string quarterback Pat Devlin made the team for the third year in a row, even though he has yet to play in a game.
Among those waived Saturday was fourth-year linebacker Austin Spitler and defensive tackle Kheeston Randall, who played in 12 games as a rookie last season.
The Dolphins kept four wide receivers, including backup Rishard Matthews. Marcus Thigpen made the team as a kick returner for the second year in a row.
Also making the final roster was tight end Michael Egnew, a third-round pick who played in two games as a rookie.
