This is a beautiful neutral taupe on my medium skintone and it is super cheap! It blends well with both my finger and eyeshadow brush and has good longevity on my oily lids. It really helps to open up the eye area and when blended with darker shades,makes a good base shadow. Very flattering with my brown eyes and is a great daily color for me to use.

Another HG shadow of mine, it's so similar to MAC Satin Taupe I had no idea and dumb me never checked the reviews and bought MAC. Its the only MAC shadow I own too, lol. I would definitely repurchase Nutty over and over. Its the perfect cool taupe for my light cool skin.
Great color, buttery, blends great, and DOES need a primer. Overall, this shadow is worth more than $1 lol.

I really like this! I have a lot of eyeshadows so I wouldn't necessarily rush out to buy this if I ran out (and I probably won't run out of it any time soon), but it's a really nice quality eyeshadow particularly for the price. I think I got it for $1 on sale at Walgreen's. It's a nice all-over lid color for me for a quick look when I'm running late for class. It's not super dark, but you can definitely build it up!

This has become my most worn eyeshadow, I use it probably 4 or 5 days out of the week. It's a lovely neutral, slightly shimmery taupe that's not too brown or warm. It applies smoothly and blends very well and doesn't crease (I do use E.L.F.s eyelid primer though, which is utterly AMAZING for its $1 price tag). You do have to be careful of the fallout from it when applying, but for the quality of it and its crazy affordable price point, it doesn't bother me in the least.
I like the slim, small packaging but it is hard to open at times without ruining my manicure...I have to use a barrette to pop it open. Not going to take a lippie off for that though, I can easily live with that at its low price.
Next time I'm at the store I'm going to buy backups, I love it that much!

This is the eyeshadow that I use 5 days out of the week, if not more. It's a beautiful shimmery but not TOO shimmery taupe. More of a neutral brown taupe than a purple taupe. Wet N Wild shadows are so buttery and smooth, they're incredible. They have a little fallout but I can deal with it for the overall quality and price. This is a very wearable shade, it is a staple in my collection. I use it all over the lid with a matte brown in the crease. Makes a perfect neutral, every day eye look. I don't even know what I did before I had this eyeshadow.

This is definitely not a satin taupe dupe. If you're looking for one, the best one i have found is in black radiance's downtown brown palette (black radiance is owned by te same company as WnW, so the packaging is exactly the same, and the quality is too. Merkwins, I think it's called?) The one in downown browns is even more dead-on than NYX iced mocha, but perhaps not quite as pigmented or blendable. Either way, both of these are much, much better dupes than nutty IMO, and overall preferable on my NW20 skintone. Nutty always pulls too red on me. I really struggle to get it quite right, but that didn't stop me from buying one more when I spotted them yesterday...I heard nutty is discontinued along with the other single pans. Rite aid still has a few, if you're looking!

I'm not a big fan of taupe. That being said, this shadow is incredibly smooth, has wonderful pigmentation and no fallout. I have heard that this is a dupe for MAC's Satin Taupe eyeshadow, but at 10% of the cost! If you love taupe colors, you'll be reaching for this often.

As long as freedom has not bound itself definitively to its ultimate good which is God, there is the possibility of choosing between good and evil, and thus of growing in perfection or of failing and sinning. This freedom characterizes properly human acts. It is the basis of praise or blame, merit or reproach. The more one does what is good, the freer one becomes. There is no true freedom except in the service of what is good and just. The choice to disobey and do evil is an abuse of freedom and leads to "the slavery of sin". (Romans 6:17) - The Catholic Catechism
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
7/5/2014 (4 months ago)
Published in Living Faith
Keywords: freedom, grace, fourth of July, holiness, virtue, sin, grace, christian character, Deacon Keith Fournier
CHESAPEAKE, VA (Catholic Online) - As we continue this weekend to celebrate Fourth of July activities in the United States of America, our focus turns toward that word which captures the hearts and minds of every man, woman and child, FREEDOM.
There is no single word which echoes more passionately within the American heart than freedom. This Nation was founded by men and women who experienced threats to freedom's promise and potential and responded to them with heroism. It has beckoned from its birth to all who hear freedom's invitation to come and see what true Freedom means.
These compelling words written by Emma Lazarus are engraved on the pedestal of the Lady Liberty in New York's Ellis Island: "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses, yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore, Send these, the homeless, tempest tossed, I lift my lamp beside the golden door."
Freedom's lamp still shines beside that golden door. However, that light is being diminished by counterfeit notions of freedom which are leading this Nation we love to lose its moral compass and, as a result, to be confused about the very meaning of the word freedom.
One of the architects of the freedom undertaking which brought down the Berlin Wall at the end of the last century, St. John Paul II once wrote:
"Human freedom belongs to us as creatures; it is a freedom which is given as a gift, one to be received like a seed and to be cultivated responsibly. It is an essential part of that creaturely image which is the basis of the dignity of the person."
The Catechism of the Catholic Church in its Section entitled "Life in Christ" offers a summary of the Sacred Scripture and Tradition on freedom and how we progress in the Christian life:
"God created man a rational being, conferring on him the dignity of a person who can initiate and control his own actions."God willed that man should be 'left in the hand of his own counsel,' so that he might of his own accord seek his Creator and freely attain his full and blessed perfection by cleaving to him."(CCC 1730)
The citation offered within the text of the Catechism is taken from the Second Vatican Council's Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World ("Gaudium et Spes", paragraph # 17) and the Old Testament Book of Sirach 15:14 which reads:
"When God, in the beginning, created man, he made him subject to his own free choice." What follows is a line from the 2d century Church Bishop, Ireneaeus of Lyons: "Man is rational and therefore like God; he is created with free will and is master over his acts."
The real meaning of human freedom are broken open for us in the Catechism in a way that makes it ideal for reflection. These instructions on the relationship between grace and freedom are grouped together under the topic of "Freedom and Responsibility":
"Freedom is the power, rooted in reason and will, to act or not to act, to do this or that, and so to perform deliberate actions on one's own responsibility. By free will one shapes one's own life. Human freedom is a force for growth and maturity in truth and goodness; it attains its perfection when directed toward God, our beatitude."
"As long as freedom has not bound itself definitively to its ultimate good which is God, there is the possibility of choosing between good and evil, and thus of growing in perfection or of failing and sinning. This freedom characterizes properly human acts.
It is the basis of praise or blame, merit or reproach. The more one does what is good, the freer one becomes. There is no true freedom except in the service of what is good and just. The choice to disobey and do evil is an abuse of freedom and leads to "the slavery of sin". (Romans 6:17) (CCC #1731, 1732, and 1733)
So why do we have such a hard time living the responsible freedom which God invites us all into? Why do we make the wrong choices, leading us into further bondage to disordered passions are misguided pursuits? The answer is that our capacity to grow in freedom has been fractured by sin.
We do not always choose the path to our true liberation because of the effects of what St. Paul called the "law of sin and death" (Romans 8:2). We experience the plight summarized succinctly by the Apostle in his letter to the Romans, "What I do, I do not understand. For I do not do what I want, but I do what I hate." (Romans 7:15)
The Catechism, summarizing the teaching of Scripture and Tradition, explains this fracture of our freedom occasioned by sin with these words:
"Man's freedom is limited and fallible. In fact, man failed. He freely sinned. By refusing God's plan of love, he deceived himself and became a slave to sin. This first alienation engendered a multitude of others. From its outset, human history attests the wretchedness and oppression born of the human heart in consequence of the abuse of freedom.(CCC # 1739)"
Sin is an abuse of our use of human freedom. It is a wrong choice which, if not confessed and untreated, leads us to more and more wrong choices. The more we sin the more we lose our freedom. However, in the words of the Apostle Paul, it was "for freedom Christ has set us free" (Gal 5:1). So it is Jesus who leads us to freedom and frees us from the bondage of sin.
We need the Divine treatment offered for the fracture to our freedom which was occasioned by the original sin of our first parents. We need the remedy for the further weakening caused by the cumulative effect of our own errant exercises of this power of choice.
That treatment is found in the Cross of Jesus Christ. It alone can heal the fracture which sin has brought to our capacity for true freedom. It is our splint. We need grace.
In another Section on freedom, the Catechism gives us an insight which has the potential of rewriting the continuing story of our lives: "Mortal sin is a radical possibility of human freedom, as is love itself."(CCC #1861)
Because we are created in the Image of God we have the power, the capacity, to make choices. But what we choose not only changes the world around us, it changes us.
An early 4th century Church Father explained it this way:
"We are in a sense our own parents, and we give birth to ourselves by our own free choice of what is good. Such a choice becomes possible for us when we have received God into ourselves and have become children of God, children of the most high. On the other hand, if what the Apostle calls the form of Christ has not been produced in us, we abort ourselves. The man (woman) of God must reach maturity."
The Catechism of the Catholic Church explains in a section entitled Liberation and Salvation:
"By his glorious Cross Christ has won salvation for all men. He redeemed them from the sin that held them in bondage. "For freedom Christ has set us free." In him we have communion with the "truth that makes us free." The Holy Spirit has been given to us and, as the Apostle teaches, "Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. (CCC 1741)"
It is only by choosing the good, conforming our choices to the truth as revealed in the Natural Moral Law and fully revealed in the Person of Jesus Christ and taught by the Word of God - and the instruction which He continues to give to us through His Church - that we can grow in authentic freedom and become the men and women whom we were created, and are being re-created in Christ, to become.
We cannot do any of this on our own, with our own human effort. We need God's grace, His Divine Life.
The Father has given this grace to us freely in His Son, Jesus Christ. We are now invited to grow in our relationship with Him by living our lives in the heart of the Church, which is his Body, of which we became members through Baptism. We are invited to grow in this reality and make it our own by embracing the work of the Holy Spirit in our lives.
By reading, praying and living His Word, receiving the grace which is mediated through the Sacraments, learning the New Way of Life revealed to us in the Bible, and continuing to seek more and more of the Holy Spirit through communion with God in prayer, we are able to be continually converted and made new. (2 Cor 5:17)
By grace, we are empowered to replace the old habits of vice with habits of holiness.
We are to live in the Holy Spirit, allowing the Holy Spirit to work within us, making us new and enabling us to grow in virtue and to begin to manifest the fruits, the character of Christ being formed in us. (Gal. 5:22)
Consider this poignant insight from the Catechism: "The more one does what is good, the freer one becomes. There is no true freedom except in the service of what is good and just. The choice to disobey and do evil is an abuse of freedom and leads to "the slavery of sin.(CCC 1733)"
By grace we can choose to grow in the likeness of the One who carried His Cross to free us from the power of sin and the final enemy of death. However, even God will not violate our human freedom. he strengthens it and enables us to respond to His continual invitations.
Coming to understand the relationship between our freedom and the grace of God more fully is a key to our progress in holiness and our response to the invitation of conversion. We are invited to be educated in freedom.
The Catechism points us on the way: "Freedom and grace. The grace of Christ is not in the slightest way a rival of our freedom when this freedom accords with the sense of the true and the good that God has put in the human heart."
"On the contrary, as Christian experience attests especially in prayer, the more docile we are to the promptings of grace, the more we grow in inner freedom and confidence during trials, such as those we face in the pressures and constraints of the outer world. "
"By the working of grace the Holy Spirit educates us in spiritual freedom in order to make us free collaborators in his work in the Church and in the world: 'Almighty and merciful God, in your goodness take away from us all that is harmful, so that, made ready both in mind and body, we may freely accomplish your will.(Prayer of the Roman Missal) (CCC # 1742)"

Panga "Sting" Nets Six Arrests
Updated On: Jan 16 2013 09:40:52 PM CST
Santa Barbara County - Six men are behind bars after being arrested near El Capitan trying to smuggle drugs into the United States. Two Mexican nationals and four Los Angeles Residents were arrested early Friday morning after undercover narcotics officers received a tip. They teamed up with officers from the Santa Barbara County SWAT Team, Ventura County Sheriff's Office - Narcotics Bureau, California State Parks and the CHP. They conducted an operation in the area of El Capital State Beach as a result of an on-going investigation into the illegal trafficking of narcotics from Mexico. As a result of the investigation, six men were arrested after unloading approximately 1,400 lbs of marijuana from a panga boat. Officials say the drugs have a street value of more than $4 million. "Due to the increase in these Panga Boat landings, we've definitely taken a lot under consideration as far as training is concerned and our enforcement efforts," said Sgt. Mark Williams, Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Dept. These are the six men that were arrested: Habel Martinez Herrera, 11-14-68, Mexico David Arredondo, 2-26-86, Compton, California. Martin Guzman, 7-8-82, Compton, California. Marco Antonio Rangel, 9-1-81, Mexico. Mauricio Brito, 1-23-91, Compton, California. Deiber Chavez, 2-8-86, Los Angeles, California.

Holiday Clementine Spinach Salad with Candied Almonds
I love making this crowd pleasing, refreshing salad to serve a lot of guests. Not only is this spinach salad beautiful to look at, but it's a great, healthy option to serve a crowd, especially during the holidays. The gorgeous ruby pomegranate arils add some festive sparkle and the honey coated almonds always get rave reviews. I usually have an abundance of clementines during the holidays and this is a fun way to use them up.
Clementine Spinach Salad with Candied Almonds
Serves: 16-20
10-12 oz fresh organic baby spinach
5 clementines, peeled and torn into segments
4 celery ribs, chopped
½ red onion, thinly sliced
½ cup pomegranate arils
1 cup sliced almonds
2 T honey
Clementine Dressing:
1 cup olive oil
½ cup apple cider vinegar
2 additional clementines, zested and juiced
2 T fresh parsley, finely chopped
salt and pepper to taste
In a skillet over low heat, stir together almonds and honey until honey is melted and almonds are coated. Remove from heat and pour honey coated almonds on parchment paper to cool.
In a large salad bowl, combine baby spinach, clementines, celery, red onion, and pomegranate arils. Break apart the candied almonds until they form small bite-size clusters. Add to the salad and toss.
Mix all your salad dressing ingredients until well blended. Serve with the salad. Enjoy!

Sushi Nakazawa Impressions After Two Meals
- loratliff Jan 31, 2014 09:18 AM
I've been fortunate enough to dine at Sushi Nakazawa twice in the past two weeks—once at the sushi bar and once, last night, in the dining room. I will say that the sushi bar is far superior and worth the $30 premium, but my meal last night was with a party of four, larger than the bar can accommodate.
The interaction with Nakazawa himself at the sushi bar is incredibly fun. His energy and sense of humor makes for a fun meal. He even recognized us again when we walked out last evening, as did the owner who thanked us for returning. Touches like that, along with the attention paid by the servers, somms, runners, etc., make the experience akin to Per Se or Eleven Madison Park.
About 5-6 pieces were different last night than our first visit. I didn't take notes last night, but both visits started out with Alaskan king salmon, hay-smoked chum salmon, a scallop (with a healthy bite from yuzukosho), and geoduck (yum).
At the bar, this was followed by a fish that Nakazawa introduced as gingkofish, but I can't quite figure out what it was. Next was golden-eye snapper and fluke.
At our table, we were served cod with cod milt (not our table's favorite, but milt is pretty divisive), along with another white fish I cannot remember.
Both times, the mackerel was phenomenal. Nakazawa is pickling and aging his mackerel for six days. I'm typically not a mackerel fan, but I've enjoyed all three variations from him—horse mackerel, pickled mackerel, and Spanish mackerel. Last night, there was a beautiful piece of herring served alongside the horse and pickled mackerel.
The first visit, we had the raw tiger shrimp and the steamed blue shrimp, but last night there was only blue shrimp. I personally prefer the steamed shrimp. Perfectly sweet, warm, and not tough in the least.
One interesting thing of note: on our first visit, we had three pieces of tuna, but last night we just had chu-toro and o-toro. The o-toro last night was seared.
Other pieces I remember: triggerfish, fluke, bream, yellowtail (two kinds), hay-smoked bonito. Pretty standard, but Nakazawa's treatment of each individual piece makes them each outstanding. The uni, ikura, and eel were stellar on both visits. My boyfriend could eat about 10 pieces of Nakazawa's ikura. We also really loved his rice.
On our first visit we did the sake pairing. Initially reluctant about it (we like wine and not sake), we enjoyed it quite a bit and were surprised at the variety. It's a value, and I certainly recommend it. Last night, after telling the somm what we liked from the pairing, he guided us to an excellent bottle for the table at a nice price-point, so if you're overwhelmed by the wine or sake, defer to the somm.
I'll end this by making a note that I've not had a lot of extremely high-end sushi experiences before (or any, really, despite a lot of traditional fine dining), but I hope that despite my affection for delivery sushi sometimes, this write-up is helpful to others. It is a very, very good restaurant.
re: silencespeak
Sounds like a couple of CHers should just band together and go. :)
I also thank you very much. Great report. It gives one a very good idea of what to expect. Btw I love fish milt. The first time i had it , the chef called them "male eggs".
Like Ellenost, I wish they took single diners. Also I've had no luck at 12 midnite trying to get a reservation on line.
re: foodwhisperer
My favorite preparation of milt was when Fergus Henderson cooked for two nights at the John Dory Oyster Bar a few years ago—he served a fabulous seared milt on toast. I can certainly understand why some people don't like it though! ;)
I'm surprised that I've been lucky twice now with reservations. The best advice I can give to have your browser on the page at ~11:55 and then just start click "refresh" until you see a reservation pop-up. It is worth mentioning that I didn't get my first pick of time for either reservation; I just took what was available—a 5 p.m. at the bar, and a 6:15 p.m. at a table, but who cares? Hope this helps.
re: coasts
I wish they had their list online so I could find it! I may call and ask, because I liked it very much and it almost drank more like a lighter riesling or a gewurztraminer than a sake. Will report back.
re: MVNYC
Yes, and no.
The sushi certainly moreso than the sake—champagne and sushi is my favorite, but it was nice to try a few different varieties of sake, even though it will still never be my first choice.
As for the sushi, I will definitely return for meals with guests and visitors who are interested, but I don't foresee high-end sushi becoming a regular habit. It's a special and unique experience to have a handful of times, but from a "value" perspective, there are better restaurant experiences to be had.
re: loratliff
Sushi Nakazawa, is causing damage to my computer. I get as far as clicking the yellow time box, that they say is available, only to get the unavailable. Then I punch the screen of my monitor. I'm starting to hate these people at SN. I doubt if calling them, gets anybody a reservation.
re: foodwhisperer
They're transitioning from their own system to Open Table, and the switch is far from smooth. I've had the same problems as you.
re: Shirang
I'm not sure. Perhaps the roe sacs are flash-frozen and then thawed when Nakazawa cures them.
I'm personally not averse to frozen fish since much of it is flash-frozen as it's caught anyway.
re: RogueFoodie
At Nakazawa, it's 20 pieces of nigiri, with the option to add more nigiri, plus dessert.
re: kathryn
One note - when I went, it was at the last seating (9:30 PM), and there was no option to add more nigiri.
re: RogueFoodie
Totally full afterwards! Not uncomfortably stuffed like I've been before after EMP or Per Se, but I didn't need to eat anything the rest of the evening, and our meals were at 5 p.m. and 6:30 p.m.
(The 6:30 p.m. dinner was with my dad—who normally isn't satisfied by sushi or small plates alone—and near the end, he even said he was comfortably full, so you will probably be surprised.)
re: loratliff
20 pieces is a good number of pieces. Other places like Sushi of Gari I believe you get around 12. Neta you get 8 plus a few small dishes.
I tried again, unsuccessfully to get a reservation for March 11. Frustrating

Popular reviewsMore
Amateur acting ... a stupid, generic story ... unimpressive action ... and oh yeah, John Cena, who has the acting talents/charisma equal to a brick.
It also pisses me off that "T-1000" himself ... the great Robert Patrick ... has his talents completely wasted in this. How can one of the greatest villains in cinema history, be defeated by John "fucking" Cena?! Give me a break ... This film sucks!
At least the women were smoking hot ... and that deserves at least one star.
Sometimes, you just want a cheeseburger. You don't even want a particularly good cheeseburger. You want a greasy, nasty one that your stomach will probably pay for later. The Marine is that cheeseburger. It's formulaic, predictable and dumb, but it wears those traits in all the best ways. Cena may have the charisma of a tree stump, but he's only supposed to look good running through swamps, punching dudes, firing machine guns and jumping out of exploding buildings. Also, I cannot stress enough how much the buildings explode in this movie. On top of that you have Robert Patrick selling the hell out of his bad guy role. It's cheesy and glorious and worth watching, provided you know exactly what you're getting into. Watched for BMFcast 125.
So bad it's good. Almost like a mix between an over the top 80's action homage and a Michael Bay explosion wet dream. So stupid it's hilarious. Pretty fun mindless entertainment.
This is possible the worst movie I've ever had the displeasure of watching. I'm not sure who told John Cena he has acting talent, but they should be arrest for crimes against humanity. So much about this movie was bad, I'll be doing this all day if I write them.
Totally ludicrous but somehow still strangely entertaining "one man army" action flick with WWE Superstar John Cena continuing his tradition of no-selling while single-handedly blowing up the entire state of South Carolina (via Australia). The hot chick from Nip/Tuck is his wife and T-1000 is the bad guy. Also: the strangest and best story about rock candy you'll ever hear.
Good stuff. In a battle against Al-Qaeda, Cena tells his peeps that if a problem can't be fixed, it should be obliterated. Cena's subsequent reacclimatization into civil society has him throwing an unruly guest through a window on the first day of security duty, chalking up the violence to American honor. Robert Patrick owns every scene he's in, talking about his cable package in times of distress, and his criminal partner reminisces about being molested at summer camp, as if that adds to his villainy. Molestation is un-American.

This movie The marine was quite awful! Having a superstar wrestler going in and being an ex-marine was poorly written! The action was poorly created! The action scenes were moving to fast that you couldn't get the whole picture from it! The producer could of done better! !
His chin looked like balls
I'm blaming the horrible action flicks I've seen this week on my father who has an innate ability to find the worst ones and some how make me interested enough that I'll watch it.
It's one of those "it's so bad it's good" movies. The story is pretty straightforward and a bit predictable, the explosions are gratuitous, and the acting can get really bad in spots...but it was good at two things" holding my attention and making me laugh.
I've got nothing against generic films with bad actors, but this was really uninspired.
As the villain Robert Patrick doesn't get out of second gear and John Cena really, and I mean, really can't act. I thought he was bad in 12 Rounds, but frankly in comparison to this - it's an Oscar worthy performance.
WWE should not be allowed to make films. John Cena should not be allowed to act. Just a horrific attempt at film making.
Goofy and with an action star that seems bereft of comedy. The entire thing is very weird, but sometimes satisfying. It's interesting for the director to realize he was dealing with a potential piece of crap and as such, goes all in. This doesn't make the film good, but certainly an entertaining B action film with plenty of explosions.
This was all explosions and comedy and there were some fun one liners but really as long as you know this is a WWE film and is all about the action and the splosions you will have a bit of fun.
"He's like a Terminator!"
Oh, John Cena. You're no The Rock. And this is no The Rundown.
Still, of all the wrassler based movies I've seen...this is not the worst.

Just posted mine recently but I'll rate anyway....9/10. I've never been a fan of minimap buttons. If the area to the right of your bag icon remains always empty, MBF would look great there. Also, lol, Mr. "grid is a must"...where's yours?
If it wasn't for those 2 things I could easily give it a 10.
8/10 on previous one. Don't like the button setup ;P
Awesome job.
Unitframes are in an interesting spot, and for your SCT, do you really need to see WHO is healing you?
My current UI, just finished today, still looking for some art for the minimap.
I can't say much for a class I don't play, but for looks alone i'd give it an 7/10. I'd suggest changing to a simpler font though, maybe it's just me but it looks like it'd be annoying to read in a very intense situation
Out of combat;
In combat;
More detail about addon choices in the 'Show your Interface' thread.
Think i'll try out Nibelheim's 'RealUI', got many of the elements of mine, but in a much more minimalist package
EDIT: Installed and currently using 'RealUI', it looks good, but it's feeling too radical a shift to me, though there a few mods in there which I think I can incorparate into my current one.

5/10 It's just way TOO much for me...
Current UI:
Boomkin (w/ "dot timer"): http://yfrog.com/5cpicture17up My raid frames are still centralized as boomkin, just smaller.
Resto (25): http://yfrog.com/5zpicture12lp
Resto (10): http://yfrog.com/hqpicture9ugp
This is tukUI with skinning of skada and DXE. I also added in the background for the chat window.
Addons are: tukUI, Grid, Skada, Addon Control Panel, Atlas Loot, Bind Pad, Friends with Benefits, Mik Scrolling combat text, Power Auras, Rating Buster, and WIM.
OOM does not mean Out Of Mobs and want more!...
Um, sorry if this is breaking the thread rules, but care to elaborate Anaire?
EDIT: I'll admit that that last screenshot is pretty 'crowded' but since then i've just scrapped the combat text and shrunk the raidframes into the bottom, leaving the middle quite empty (I'll get a good screenshot up soon)

You have both unit frames and a HUD - they show the same information if set up correctly (I've used a HUD before...)
The debuffs are placed lower on the screen which starts the cluttering of the center. The combat text, HUD, and error spam is a lot of clutter and limits what you see. If you're dps (and see as you're a cat, I'm assuming you are) there isn't a need for such large raid frames..
What I would do:
Scale down Omen - have the person's name, TPS, and Threat % visible, you have a lot of dead space there
---- Swap it with Skada, threat is more important than damage being done imo
---- And is it necessary to see 10 people's threat?
Scale down Skada, during a fight you don't really need to see it unless manually assigning bite targets on BQ
Get an addon to organize all the buttons around your map
Reduce the size of the raid frames
HUD or unit frames - they show the same info
---- If you keep HUD have it shorten the numbers like 33.3k for your health..
---- If you keep unit frames is it necessary to see the images? Is it necessary for the ToT and focus to be so large? I would keep the unit frames, centralize them in the center of your screen, remove the images, put your cooldown bar below it, and your feral addon center above where your toon's head is.
Move buffs to top of screen
Combat text - make it smaller and have it show the information you need.
Finally, I would have a background for the chat box, not the entire bottom of the screen.
/run AlwaysUpFrame1:Hide()
^^Will hide attempts left text at the top of the screen
I said it's just too much because it is, for me there is too much going on. Strip down what you don't need or that is duplicates (HUD/unit frames) and scale down.
OOM does not mean Out Of Mobs and want more!...
I had both unitframes and hud because I was trying to get used to a HUD, but now i've just scrapped it, moved everything down to the centre and gotten rid of combat text. It doesn't really make much of a difference where I put omen/skada because the few times I overaggro are either because I got a lucky string of Omen of Clarity procs or the tank dc'd.
Anyway, thanks for the suggestions-from left to right (in the middle'ish) i've got myself,my target, targets target with focus target under my portait.
EDIT: All this fretting and I haven't even rated your UI!
Well, let's just say it's hard to criticize something you can't find fault in, solid 10/10 for both dps and healing interfaces i'd say. I've tried using UI packages myself but I can never really get used to them, besisdes, I find it much more interesting and fun to make build from the ground up and I learn a lot through the feedback....though I'll probably install Tukui for my alt shaman(healer).
EDIT2: Do the portaits look 'loose' to you? the best UI's tend to be the ones that have mods which 'compliment' each other design wise which is what i've been trying to do with the bottom (and failing miserably), and now there's this huge space in the middle and i'm not quite sure how to use it. Maybe I should move the DXE alert's anchor somewhere else and place target/target's target down there, switch focus target and droodfocus?

The only thing i can think to say about your UI is pose this question to you:
How much information is duplicated somewhere else on your screen and how much information is too much? e.g.
1. You have omen expanded to see the top 9 people + yourself, you have omen and tidy plates/threat plates. Consider shrinking it to only show the top few people instead(you really only need your threat compared to the tanks and not other people) or if you only DPS consider switching to Threat Bar.
2. Recount during combat. I feel that recount is something to use in between pulls to asses how you did for the previous attempt. If you want a mod to track your DPS try something that uses less real estate such as MyDPS.
3. Items meant only for aesthetics such as the large black bar at the bottom and the 3d unit frames on HP/mana bars. NOTE: If you want the large black bar at the bottom consider Aperture to move the bottom of your visible area up so you aren't missing anything that could be hidden behind something. Example
My Ui
Things not shown in the above screen shot. Power Auras to track Hunters Mark/Stings/Aspect in between Player frame and target. Also in between player frame and target is Threat Bar. I use Pitbull's raid frames and they go down the left side of my screen. Recount is hidden during combat.
The portraits are not needed was my point... They take up a lot of space.
If I had to re rate 6/10. You still have a LOT of wasted space imo. Let me introduce you to pError. I also suggest reading this.
The UI is squashed to the center and messy imo. I would rather raid with the default blizz raid frames pulled out than your UI. =x
OOM does not mean Out Of Mobs and want more!...
Since Anaire's UI wasn't rated I will rate his/hers.
Generally good use of space in some areas ie, cast bars, however minimilism that uch on cast bars can cause problems (what happens if everyone is dead, boss is on 10k health, how ill you moonfire it?)
I personally feel your dot timers in the first SS are too intrusive as well as ur hot timers i assume (wild growth icon in the middle) also restrict being able to see what colour goo you may be standing in. No visual threat meter also would concern me.
Your boss timers are good, very easy to see. Aside from your raid frames your UI looks very tidy, however it really isn't for me as you will see from mine.
Borsalino as you reposted
Your UI feels too cluttered, i don't personally feel its important to have a massive health frame for targets unless you are healing as for a long boss fight it will change rather slowly and shouldn't really be a focal point.
I can see the same issue i had with yours as i had with Anaire's UI and that is you have bars over your toon which restricts seeing if the goo under your feet matches your shoes.
Your UI just feels a bit of a mess to me personally. The bottom 1/2 is neat and nice and you have used the fade option in bartender well (i use it for my stance bars on my druid, pally and warrior also its pro), however I don't think it would be a very functional healing UI.
IMO Stuff flying through your toon is a big nono.
Apologies to rabicab, i completely over looked yours.
I like minimilist UIs very much however i feel they lack some degree of functionality in those "Oh crap" situations
As i cant see haste pots, health stone, ect on ur bars i would assume you would open your bag for these items which can be annoying hence why i deducted some points. You are also not showing where your recount sits and a few other things as you mentioned so I get an accurate feel for it in combat while being used. However I did re-read your post and add .5 of a point for explaining where they sit.
Some UIs look great out of combat but turn into a mess in combat and I feel that with what you have not shown yeilds potential for this.
Additionally to Rabicab, on your reply, point 2. I disagree. I feel recount should be used as a DPS tuning mod during fights, more so for easy bosses. Example, if you have a laggy connection for what ever reason just as a once off, it will allow you to help adjust your play style to suit your latency. If you are trying something new in raid and want immediate feedback on wether or not what your doing is working. But again, personal preference.
Nuer UI..jpg
A quick summary of mods used some are visual, some are not. DBM (yells only), Dues Vox Encounters, grid, bartender, tell me when, quartz, pitbull, totem timers, elkano's buff bars, sexy map, recount, omen, omniCC, decursive, ice hud, pally power, prat, titan panel and MikScrollingBattleText. There are a few others which are not visable and are for general play not raiding so i won't list those.
Things to note: Elkano's buff bars on the left shows all buffs, there is another buff bar which has larger bars which shows whitelisted buffs and debuffs (eg: Divinie intervention, Hand of Protection invisbility, ice block, necrotic plague, sanity, those sorts of things which i MUST be aware of or be able to click off quickly).
My ui is built around playing as a true hybrid, both resto and ele depending on the fight. It is also laid out to be workable for all class roles. Lastly the bar on the far right is purely healing assignmnets for HM fights, if u look closely u can figure out my progression :P
Apologies if I provided too much info, i like to be thorough. Please feel free to PM me with any comments, mod requests or genereal feedback/mod suggestions.
Edit: Made some extra changes, thought i'd leave the previous SS in but heres it now
Nu UI again..jpg
Last edited by Steggles; 04-21-2010 at 04:41 AM. Reason: Missed rabicab's UI completely. Fixed :-) Also added 2nd ss
OOM does not mean Out Of Mobs and want more!...
No clutter
No mess
No skada in combat
Shortened omen
P.S I'd already read the 'What to aim for when customizing UI' post, and looked at several UI compilations. Looking at those it seemed to me that 'compact' and 'minimalist' was the way to go, but it seems all i've achieved is 'squashed' and a UI so bad someone would consider using the default frames instead (...seriously?).
Alright, I don't know what else I can do with this -are the outlines too thick?
Last edited by Borsalino; 04-21-2010 at 02:41 PM.
I realy do like your UI, if i had a ferlol i would make a Ui like yours, maybe though do something with the faded skills, only that slighty bugs me, 9/10
Heres mine:
The Number 25 in the middle of my screen is to watch sunder timer, since i have to put them up in my 10man group since our tanks are a Dk and Paladin, when if they do drop off a sunder image appears . Also i move up or hide my recount in 25mans since grid goes across to the right. There anyway pretty much as bussy as it gets, with raid warnings, special raid warning, and powauras proc.
Heres a no combat pic, but omen test on.
Sorry the quality of the pics couldent be better. Hope you like.

Why Cecilia Dighero chose Pioneertown
We discovered the high desert to get away from the stress of the large city. We fell in love with this area because of the silence, the pure air, the mystical open spaces, the trasparent light, the spectacular sunrises & sunsets and the canopy of stars. A true communion with nature.

Aesop Rock Oxygen Lyrics
Last updated: 11/04/2012 03:03:16 PM
I'm twice born, once and seven something
Once is the resurrection of honorable function
Been shoveling a coal as the engine's doctor
Long enough to see my silhouette acquire a permanent kink in a posture
The maintenance of icicle spirit by the warmth of true endearment
Was, is, and forever will be a luxury
I'm a SOVEREIGNTY columnist fathering doom document
Cursed version of a certain Virgin Mary womb occupant
[Verse One]
I know swamp rats who never suckled oxygen purification
Sure AS blurry had them speeennnd breeezzzzze
Stuck until my friend leaves puppet for the plummet committee
Sputtering bum numb enough to stomach the city
Who's that hugging a silhouette of willows WHERE THE hill's crest pan out?
On the candy-coated crab apples, sugar-dipped deadpan outs
I got a plan, I'll tourniquet my quest
THEN FEED a needle into battling to mute the mess
WHEN patience galas with absentee BALLOTS I shove in the button
Strutting to exhibit mankind's hostility function
With a heave, paling in comparison a Mathias Goliath
Live to rickety frame in a wicked silence
I top and ate my nameless CREATOR then I bumped eyelids
With a Christ we saw the same thing through a second
What's that? The grand mosaic depicting historical glory in a legend
Nursed me through the time stick and stone mixes hexed my fertile crescent
Now all's well, I'm laughing on the inside I swear
Just trying to keep my head above red tide despair
My imperfections pair off with buddy system symmetrics morbidly
So every second the discontent's locked accordingly
Let's turn mummy's, SHOW THE PERFECTION OF PERSERVED glory condition
And pray for the day a star child tugs the ribbon
BETTER LAND A two-hand grip when that spoon full of sugar medical chaser
Credible CRAVES HER antidote's terrible taste HER
BOUGHT HER WITH A stolen soul PEDDLER
PIGEON BACK FEATHER pen
Never SAID a grin IMPLIED health
Consider me a mobile advertisement for that hybrid plant of fabrics
I deemed practical, now is you is or is you ain't compatible?
I feel THE wind in my opinions plus hyper clutch TO
Crush one's ginger bread tenement awful,
It's like the DAY THE GREAT OAK MET THE SAWMILL
A lifeline of spectacular expansion MEETS the reaper
At the hand of ONE mans TANTRUMS
My friend's got a book about dreams, I look and laugh
I dream a book about my friends and still can't decipher the half
Ch-ch-chatter boooox, now let a soothe sayer major
Cater to a king green battered on the brink of disease
I am, skin and bones, I am, sin and poems, I am, tin and chrome
You grin and groans fuck it I'm tinted when accrete zone
Blow the pedals off a dandelion trying to make my little gypsy blush
And felt as if I'd actually accomplish something
Fortify the bullies of the jokes soak in treatment
Sit and watch the percentages teeter on the evening
BROUGHT A GHOST up in THE FUSELAGE A second before the COG dropped
TO the Styx and stared him down until he fixed it
OH, Fashion, it's cool and all but what about God?
[Oh God, well he's the man, but I MEAN what about reading?]
What, like novels, man that don't hold my attention, HOW about television?
[Television hurts my brain, how about walking in the rain?]
OOH, I hate walking, it's boring, how about some old fashioned gone fishin'
[Yeah, fishing's great but JUST HATE hooking the bait, lets dance]
NAH, I've got too left feet plus motion sickness, how about breakfast?
[Man, I'm hungry, but that means I'mma have to borrow some money]
Let's fly a kite [Let's burn the generals]
Let's sell lemonade [Let's drink]
Let's poke a hole inside the tugboat, ease on back and watch it sink
[NAH, lets FAIL a pupil once a year AT RANDOM to shake the academy]
Casually note the blossom of phantom alignment strategy
[Verse Two]
I'll make the water fall out of order in autumn
SORTA CAUGHT'EM When their GUARDS mimicked the vintage knuckle drag sacked in a coffin
I affiliate my rag dummy appearance with a most cohesive spirit
CRIED A RIVER yesterday, ain't shed a tear since
GIMME GIMME, wrote the Old Yeller community cartoon
The carousel ballooned extravagant aware, inviting it
I'm swore to Adam and matter and saddling
Warhead thorax and abdomen to primitive horse back galloping
My index fingers DRESSED in my talisman branded up in the jackal's skin
One must pardon ye old common SHEEP detour
Weaving graceful through the PRIME DIRECTIVE column
Greater virus retreats to ALLOTED vellum
Bean stalk where the fiend walk and my name is mud
But that's got a ring to it so my SQUEAL welcomes the flood
I walk THIS God's practical joke ONE man practically broke
And if they raise my rent again I'll spend my nights practically soaked
Who spits silk dimensions THROUGH THE noose looped by the raft?
'CAUSE After lack of reasoning DEAD'EM (IT'S LIKE 3, 2, 1, BEDLAM)
Oooh I'm hung, I've clung to hope but see you in hell
I'll be that clear blue icicle that simply refused to melt
Sturdy IRON GRILLAGE, tin can skeleton,
Skull of a thousand dilapidated dream remnants
Here to convict based on a tin bucket of evidence
I steer where the heaven's merely a legend so the peasants dream well
Pleasant peasant (pleasant peasant) dream well
Every blessed presence is tryin' to dream well
(Oh professor) Pleasant peasant (pleasant peasant) dream well
Every blessed presence is tryin' to dream well
(Oh professor) Pleasant peasant (pleasant peasant) dream well
My blessed presence is tryin' to dream well
(Oh professor) Pleasant peasant (pleasant peasant) dream well
Every blessed presence is tryin' to dream well
Oh professor...
(I see. It's sort of a simple concept, huh?
Nah, it's one of those, like, easy-to-learn typical master's situations.
Ah, it's fucked up.)
Thanks to email@example.com for submitting Oxygen Lyrics.
just gotta say.. | Reviewer: thatguy | 11/4/12
Near the end I'm pretty sure he says, "That stairway to heaven's merely a legend so the peasants dream well." not I steer where the heaven's merely a legend. Not sure tho, anyone else hear it??
Thinking | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/1/12
From what I was able to interpret, the song talks about frustration of living and having to live with a mind that cannot stop. There's this ongoing conversation in his head, and every time he has an answer, he has a way to counter it. He tries to put down some certainties, but it's futile because he's living in this insane world that's always in motion. Even though he understands a lot, his understanding only gives him more unanswerable questions. Tough to pin down, hope you can get something out of what I wrote
2 cents. Oxygen is attaining one's potential or ultimate self. 2 cents | Reviewer: coterminous | 2/18/12
I interpret Aesop Rock's 'Oxygen' as the necessary or valuable attributes of ascension. Betterment of one's self can be attained by "I'll tourniquet my quest then feed a needle into battling to mute the mess." It is condensing 'icicle spirit by the warmth of true endearment." Cold, confusion, chaos etc can be thawed by endearing truth. 'Nursed me through the time stick and stone mixes hexed my fertile crescent.' Simply rise above and attain who you want to be, depicted by glory, holy ideals etc. The hallmark of humanity is that we are able to ascend the typical sensation and perception, with conception. The ability to turn the former two into concepts. God is the ultimate concept as it attempts to encompass all things and ideals. Oxygen is essentially God's breath, which Aesop Rock certainly spits. Try viewing the song as essential ideals that will procure self bettering. The trade between foreground and background statements is example of laziness and excuse. The ease of excuses and destruction, compared to aggressive attempt of attaining oneself's potential. Just 2 cents. All it ever is.
I love this song | Reviewer: Richard | 9/12/07
First of all I don't think songs are that easy to state in a sentence. What does "Smells like Teen Spirit" mean? some sort of despair at suburanity right?
What do I like about it? Rhythm, the way the music makes me feel.
My Interpretation
"twice born once and seven something" -similar to holy introductions referring to resurrection of buddha, lamas, famous monks, etcetera in tibet.
"swamp rats" means "city homeless"
HELP ME WITH THIS | Reviewer: Tristen | 7/21/07
I really don't understand this song!!! explain in simple termanology PUHLEASE, I'm really trying to understand his lyrics but WOW.

Dinner at Bricco Saturday night with my wife reminded me once more of how incredible Chef Jason Viscount's restaurant truly is. I enjoyed the Alaskan Koho Salmon with zucchini, lentil, cauliflower, and squash purée. Truly fabulous.
Sunday meant riding, specifically the Tour de Chocolate Town with Megan and Sam. The weather was truly spectacular, and the course fantastic. While the breaks and markings paled in comparison to the Covered Bridge in Lancaster, a ride through HersheyPark to start the day was a true treat.
The day begins with assembling my bike, a Trek 1.5.
Megan and Sam on Homestead Lane south of Hershey.
A view from the highest spot on the 33-mile ride looking out across Dauphin County.
At the end of the day, smiles all around.
On Wednesday, we held a company picnic at work. I had a chance to grill burgers and hot dogs with Mike Feeley and Paul Thomas in the first shift that day.
Friday night meant it was time for Leadership Harrisburg Area's second annual Cornhole Tournament. Sal Marone and I played well enough to finish one match from the consolation finals, but most importantly, the organization raised more than $1,500 to support its mission. Well done.
Our team name for the tournament was Veggie Omelet With Ham. On Saturday morning, at breakfast with Kate at Diener's, I had, wait for it, a veggie omelet with ham. And it was good.
Saturday afternoon, I traveled to Baltimore with Sal and took in the Orioles-Yankees game. After a brief rain delay, I got one final look at Derek Jeter before he retires from baseball at the end of the month.
While I had planned a 40-mile bike ride for myself on Sunday, that never happened. I snapped this shot of contrails on the back porch late tonight after a great dinner with the family. Using my phone's panorama setting, I panned from about 30 degrees north of the horizon up to about 90 degrees, or straight overhead, for an unusual perspective.
