Parisians supposedly have a saying; you can never have too many scarves on your person. As summer heats up this side of the Channel, and sunburnt necks become commonplace, we've been seeing looser neckerchiefs and bandannas slung around the coolest collars
There's an urban myth that in London that you are never 8 feet away from a rat, it's clearly bullshit but you try to get 8 feet away from a pair of Wayfarers this summer- you won't. The number of companies ripping off the Ray Ban original is staggering with prices and quality ranging from £12 for a cheap pair from Topman up to £115 for a pair of Ray Ban's from ASOS.
Boater! The straw hat of choice for summer
As fashion continues to trawl the Americana back catalogue, the boater pops up as a summer hat option. You'll need bags of attitude to carry it off as well as this uber-Lower East Side hipster (its photographer Dash Snow) but hell, you can try.
How far is TOO far? Taking inspiration from Womenswear…
Over the last few years, with the trends having covered skinny jeans, unisex mods, sexually-liberated hippies, shoulder pads, guy/girl jumpsuits and the his/her Eighties where basically anything went, I have tried my hand at many trends that tread the fine line between menswear and womenswear.
This photo recently appeared on Facehunter and, while originally in awe of this fashionisto's rose accessory, I began to wonder if it would be one step too far and throw me into the realm of uncomfortable dressing…
Can You See it…Which Popstar Has Been Taking Style Cues from Calvin Harris?
Calvin Harris, the Dumfries-born DJ who is often tipped with providing the backing track to the vintage wave of last summer, is currently topping the charts with his 'I'm Not Alone' and while watching his latest video I was suddenly aware of the BOT male's striking similarity to another No. 1 popstar…
Carhartt canvas shopper bag from Asos
Shopper bags make a nice alternative to the rucksack, and Carhartt canvas bag from Asos (£48) combines utilitarian simplicity with interesting details. A glut of pockets is a terrible thing on trousers but on a bag it's pretty useful, and the black straps and zip neatly punctuate the colour.
Seb Law's Summer Picks: Acne sandals, Mulberry bags and Levi's shorts
Seb Law is a grown up business Editor by day, dj by night, and in between finds time to maintain his blog at The Staple and keep us entertained on Twitter. He kindly provided us with his summer picks, which get us in the mood for long days at the park, day trips to the beach and lazy pub garden evenings. Read on to find out what he'll be wearing this season:
Tavi the Super-Stylish Style Rookie Takes Inspiration From An Unexpected Male Figure…
Tavi, the famously fab 12 year-old blogger, is often cited as one of the most fashion-forward figures of the current style circuit. Fashion folk worldwide tune into her Style Rookie blog each day to get a glimpse of her latest get-ups and commentaries. When I saw this photo of her wearing her classic Slow and Steady Wins the Race sunglasses, I was reminded of one of my favourite males and his similar sunnies.
Yay or Nay? Mickey Boardman's Gender-Bender Style
Mickey Boardman is the infamous columnist at Paper magazine as well as a social butterfly and fashion extraordinaire. He is also the proud owner of a rather distinctive and intriguing look.
Pocket squares!
It's probably a first that Alexis Petridis at The Guardian picks up on a trend before the Brandish team but here's an exception. Whilst his column on Saturday featured the said accessory with a standard suit, I recently spotted a Liberty sales assistant making a much more imaginative use of the pocket square. He'd paired a vintage-looking, 'farmer' check Barbour shirt in cream/khaki with a Liberty pocket square in one of their classic, 'arts and crafts' prints in a cool, pale blue. Perfectly folded into the shirt pocket, the pocket square positively fizzed against the rural check of his shirt. Were this boy walking down the street in New York City he'd have been a moving target for The Sartorialist.
The ultimate Mlutch?
On a recent visit to Matches boutique on Marylebone High Street, I couldn't take my hands off this amazing mlutch bag. Whilst the Matches website (and no doubt producer, Zagliani) coyly describe it as a 'document holder' it's most definitely a mlutch. Too big to be a lady clutch bag, expandable to fit um, a few flat items like the essential glossy mag, passport (I'm struggling here), spare pants.. 'documents'? The amazing python leather has to be stroked to be really appreciated. Of course, such perfection comes at a price: £688.
Manufactum's bark tanned leather shopping bag
This bark-tanned leather shopping bag (239 Eur) looks slightly feminine, but that's part of the appeal, there's no faux macho-posturing from this bag, it's just a simple over the shoulder tote. The true tan colour will look great with a navy suit or a pale Harrington jacket and it's more interesting than your average laptop bag. Manufactum produce the bag, …
Mulberry's Eliot Tote: a male 'It' bag?
Currently gracing all the best mens glossies is the Mulberry ad for the Eliot Tote bag. It's rare for a particular model to be touted as the equivalent of a male 'It' bag but I guess Mulberry are applying a trusted formula here.
Brandish Poll: Do you Dare? Bum-Bags!
At a disco the other night, the theme was 'City vs. Country' and stuck for ideas, a friend and I decided to go as tacky tourists. Cue vintage novelty braces, high-waisted denim shorts and charity shop shirts.
My charity shop bum-bag has been the focus of much attention.
Neckerchiefs: turning up everywhere
We've posted about kerchiefs before, but now a definite trend seems to be developing. Along the way they've become 'officially' known as Neckerchiefs, just in case you were in any doubt as to their use.
Summer Totes: only for the lighthearted
There's something very liberating about the tote bag for guys. Clearly 'recreational' in outlook – its very simplicity makes it clear that you're not lugging a laptop and however Boho your leatherware is there's nothing quite so carefree as a simple cotton tote.
Add a stylish touch to your Spring break with a nostalgic titfer
Given the dramatic changes in weather recently you may be thinking a sowester is your best option for cover, but once the sun breaks out, a hat looks like an essential accessory for SS09.
Mlutch obliged: would you carry a clutch bag?
Click image to enlarge
How could we have missed the boat on this one? We heralded the age of the 'medge' aka the male wedge and we all witnessed the explosion of guyliner, manscara and what have you but somehow the 'mlutch' evaded us.
WISHLIST: Kris Van Assche for Oliver Peoples Sunglasses S/S Collection '09
Kris Van Assche, creative head of Dior Homme, and luxury sunglasses label Oliver Peoples have already put out successful collections of their collaborative designs but this week has seen the launch of the Spring/Summer 2009 collection.
Seen on the street: old-school canvas rucksacks
Sometimes online shopping can be as exhausting as a trudge round the real shops (remember them?) So whilst all the coolest backs in town seem have an old-school canvas rucksack slung across them, tracking said item down online is more tricky.

Sebastian Vettel says he would have no qualms partnering either Kimi Raikkonen or Fernando Alonso at a F1 team.
Vettel is the in-form driver these days as he enters the 2014 Championship having won four World titles on the trot.
However, to date the German has yet to go up against the sport's best in the same machinery.
While he previously partnered Mark Webber, this year he will be teaming up with Daniel Ricciardo in what could be Vettel's penultimate campaign with Red Bull.
But whether his next stop is Ferrari is anyone's guess although the 26-year-old says he would have no problem going head-to-head with either Scuderia driver.
"Maybe one day I will drive in the same team with Kimi or Fernando," Motorsport-Total reports him as having told Sport Bild magazine.
"You always want to beat the best.
"I'm not afraid of it but so far it just hasn't happened."

TO GO WITH AFP STORY by Glenn Chapman, US-IT-Internet-art-software-music-Google-Doodle
Google Doodle Creative Lead Ryan Germick works on an illustration at the Google headquarters in Mountain View, California, on September 2, 2011. A tribute to legendary Queen front man Freddie Mercury took center stage at Google in much of the world on September 5, 2011 in the latest "doodle" merging technology and art to show the Internet giant's human side. An animated video crafted into the logo on Google's search page to honor what would have been the late rock legend's 65th birthday marked the latest step in the evolution of doodles that started as rudimentary clip art. Google users woke to Mercury everywhere but in the United States, where a Labor Day holiday prompted the doodle to be bumped to September 6.

- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
These are great for touring, solid, and easy to use. I also happen to think they are a lovely shade of orange, easily sorted out in the back of the truck and fished out of the snow. These were purchased for my husband, and have seen a few years use, mine are a few years older and adjust like they are brand new. Wrist straps are easy to use, too.

Great Adjusting Trekking Poles
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
These poles I got when I desperately needed new poles, we whet to REI to look for poles but they had no poles to choose from. So it was either a pair of $160 smith poles that didn't quite fit or $20 (with $20 off coupon) ugly orange flame poles that will probably grow with me until the day they break (they are really long.). I chose the orange flame poles . I have seen many people over the 4 years I've had these poles have the same poles except like really bent up and stuff, so I don't know how they got theirs that way, but mine minus a few scratches (I got this year from a big crash I had) have been perfect. I do think Black Diamond should change a few things though put out more girly designs so these poles would interest me more to pick them up in the first place and add holes at the top for knuckle guards because I really want to add them but there is no where to put them. Other than that these poles are pretty good. Nothing fancy just plain ski poles.

The City of Round Rock encourages residents to recycle their Christmas trees on Saturday, Dec. 29, and Saturday, Jan. 5, at the Recycling Center, 310 Deepwood Drive.
Round Rock residents will get more than just a good feeling from recycling their Christmas trees, the City will give away a free small tree (while supplies last, Saturdays only) to residents who bring their Christmas trees for recycling on the two days mentioned above.
Round Rock residents may bring their Christmas Trees to the Round Rock Brush Recycling Center for recycling during any regular operating day from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday-Saturday.
Before recycling your tree, please remove all decorations, nails, wires, ornaments, tree stands, lights, and tinsel. The trees will be shredded into a fine, usable mulch which is free to Round Rock residents for pickup at the recycling center. Local businesses can also drop off their Christmas trees, and for a small fee ($15 per truckload), businesses that sell Christmas trees can recycle their leftovers as well. For more information, call 218-5540.

Sharon Morris was the daughter of Everett and Mary Coleman. In 1928, her family donated land to the community where a church and schoolhouse were built. The church was called Peach Tree General Baptist Church, and it is still running today in the small town of Piedmont, Missouri. Everett and Mary lived on a farm with their six children, five boys and one girl. Everett worked at Brown Shoe Factory and was a preacher. Mary was a homemaker.
Although there were advantages and disadvantages to being a preacher's kid, Morris said they still didn't mind it. "It wasn't bad. I can remember traveling to and from different churches in the car with a whole load of brothers." However, she feels she was sometimes treated differently because of her father's occupation."Some of the popular girls would laugh about it. My closest friends didn't." Morris says that sometimes her life was different than her friends. "My parents were always strict and I never got to go to school dances; that bothered me then."
Sharon married Larry Morris and they raised two kids. She hopes that she has taught her children many things that she learned from her parents. "I wanted my kids to be able to participate in the sports and school activities that I couldn't, but I do appreciate growing up knowing I was loved and was taught values. These I tried to pass on to my children."
Recalling memories from her childhood–some good, some not so good–Morris stated that "the worst I can remember was coming home in a bad snowstorm and wondering if we would make it. And then there was the time my dad hit a mule on the road on the way to church. We did go on to church, I believe."
Morris now has four grandchildren with whom she is very close. How she was raised affected the way she raised her children and the way they are raising their children. She hopes her grandchildren will "be honest and work hard and love God."
Though many kids have grown up as a preacher's kid, Morris recognizes that the times have changed tremendously. "I think as a preacher's kid now, they aren't as strict and it is a lot easier to be in school activities."
Many things have changed since the 1920s-1930s, but according to Morris the life of a preacher's kid has stayed virtually the same.

Celebrate the Festival of Lights in style with Hanukkah gifts from RedEnvelope.com! Our selection of unique Chanukkah gifts includes small treats for the first day, and lavish presents for the eighth day. Find Hanukah gifts for your Jewish friends and family among our collection of elegant holiday presents.
Hanukkah is traditionally celebrated by lighting one candle on the Menorah each night, for eight nights. Menorahs feature eight candles, plus one additional candle called the Shamash. The Shamash is used to light the other candles, and is often placed above or centered among the others. Most families already have a Menorah, but we do offer options if you're seeking candles and candleholders. Our modular candleholder, twist candlesticks, and Lugano candelabra can all be purchased in sets and then configured to display nine candles. You might also select a design your own celebration candle, with a personal message for a happy Hanukkah! Our year of wishes candles can inspire a new family tradition that lasts all year. Once Hanukkah has passed, you can light the wishes candles instead of the Menorah. Warm their hearts and homes with candle Hanukah gifts from RedEnvelope.
If your loved ones don't live close by, you can still celebrate Hanukkah with them. Consider sending a lovely bouquet of Hanukkah flowers to out-of-town relatives and friends. These creative Hannukah gifts will brighten their home for the entire holiday! Say "Shalom" with fragrant lilies, decadent roses, or vibrant daisies. These home decorating gift ideas are easy to order online and have delivered straight to their door. Don't forget that our selection of Hanukkah flowers also includes beautiful options for Rosh Hashanah flowers! You can also celebrate the spirit of the season by ordering flowers online for nursing homes, Jewish centers, or elementary schools. There's no better way to share your faith and well wishes with your community.
Many Jewish families open their homes to entertain guests this time of year. Selecting home wine accessories & bar gifts helps recipients to get their houses holiday-ready. Friends and family are much more fun when the drinks are flowing and snacks are handy. A glass wine decanter, cubist cocktail set, or pair of inside-out champagne glasses will delight hosts and hostesses this Hanukkah. Small bar and wine gifts, like stainless steel wine stoppers, can be gifted as party favors or first night Hanukkah presents. Other small items, such as our locket cuff links or silver-plated purse mirror, work perfectly as gifts for the first few nights of the Festival of Lights.
Jewelry gifts are appropriate for any occasion, so you can't go wrong with gifts of Hanukkah jewelry. Choose thoughtful pendants that celebrate their whole family with a family necklace in gleaming sterling silver. Murano glass bead bracelets, necklaces, and earrings add rich, vibrant splashes of color to any outfit she wears. We also have men's accessories, like our stunning Murano glass cufflinks. These mini pieces of art are each handmade and one-of-a-kind. Family tree jewelry and birthstone jewelry are other choices for sweet, sentimental Hanukkah jewelry gifts. Our elegant jewelry boxes are another excellent present pick; each is functional and fashionable! These jewelry storage options keep your bling in one spot and adorn your dresser or vanity as stylish décor. Handy silk jewelry rolls can also be given as an easy way to take jewelry along on vacation.
Now is the time to shop for Channukah gifts, but you can stock up on Rosh Hashanah gifts, Yom Kippur gifts, and Passover gifts! You can also give gifts that are clues to bigger eighth day of Hanukah gifts. If you're giving your child or spouse a trip to Israel, for example, you can present them with a leather excursion travel wallet. Tuck the tickets inside to truly wow them! Other big-ticket items like cars can be revealed via cute keychains or small jewelry boxes with keys inside. Your imagination is the only limit when shopping for Hanukkah gifts!

- In this thesis, we have shown that the inclusion of a nematic degree of freedom in the macroscopic hydrodynamic description of smectic-A-like liquids leads to a number of interesting results. While the director and the layer normal are coupled such that they are parallel in equilibrium, in non-equilibrium situations, the director needs not be parallel to the smectic layer normal. This is in contrast to standard smectic-A hydrodynamics. Using irreversible thermodynamics and symmetry arguments, we derived a complete set of macroscopic hydrodynamic equations for the director variables, the layer displacement, the velocity field, and the moduli of the nematic and smectic order parameters. Recent experiments find that the parallel orientation of smectic-A- like liquids is destabilized by an applied shear. After destabilization, two typical scenarios are observed in a steady state situation: i) The layers are oriented perpendicular to the vorticity direction of the flow, i.e., they lie in the plane spanned by the velocity and the gradient direction (`perpendicular' orientation). ii) Closed multi-lamellar vesicles (`onions') form. A number of experiments indicate that the onset of this reorientation is controlled by the applied shear rate. In contrast to standard smectic-A hydrodynamics where shear in the parallel orientation has no effect on the layers, this destabilizing effect comes out naturally from our extended smectic-A hydrodynamics. The argumentation goes along the following lines. The shear field exerts a torque on the director that must be balanced by the coupling to the layer normal. In the limit of small angles, balancing these torques leads, in the steady state, to a shear-induced director tilt proportional to the shear rate. The preferred thickness of a smectic layer is directly connected to the projection of the averaged molecular axes on the layer normal, or, in terms of our model, the thickness is proportional to the projection of the director on the layer normal. If the director is tilted, this projection is shorter. This decrease of the projection is equivalent to an effective dilation, because the actual layer thickness is larger than the preferred layer thickness. Similar to the case of low molecular weight smectic-A liquid crystals under a dilative strain, this effective dilation leads to an undulation instability. To investigate the stability of the parallel alignment, we performed a linear and weakly non-linear analysis of the governing equations. The initial state is the above described spatially homogeneous director tilt with the smectic layers in the parallel orientation. The linear stability analysis showed an undulation instability which sets in above a critical tilt angle (or equivalently, a critical shear rate). This critical tilt angle turned out to depend strongly on the material parameters. For a typical low molecular weight thermotropic liquid crystal, we estimated the critical tilt angle to be on the order of a few degrees. The linear stability analysis also revealed that the nematic and smectic order is modulated close to the boundaries. Since the probability for the formation of defects is larger in regions with a decreased modulus of the order parameter, these variations in the modulus of the order parameter open the way for a destabilization of the layered structure. We note that a detailed investigation of this point is beyond the scope of the present work. Finally, we could exclude an oscillatory instability for all physically reasonable regions in parameter space. The weakly non-linear analysis shows that the bifurcation is supercritical for most physically relevant regions in the parameter space. A detailed comparison to an independent approach was undertaken in a collaboration with simulation physicists from the Max-Planck- Institute for Polymer Research in Mainz. In a molecular dynamics simulation, a model layered liquid consisting of chains of four particles (AABB) was considered. The interaction potential of particles not connected by springs is attractive for like particles and repulsive for particles of a different nature. The simulation demonstrated the two main predictions of our analytic theory: The director tilts in the flow direction and, above a critical shear rate, the layers show stationary undulations with a wave vector in the vorticity direction. Besides this good qualitative agreement, a reasonable quantitative agreement for the critical shear rate was found.

With the impending release of Quentin Tarantino's "Django Unchained," there are bound to be some interesting discussions about the United States' history of slavery.
Some folks will surely be outraged by Tarantino's Spaghetti Western and blaxploitation-fueled take on the subject. But among others, it will probably prove to be an eye-opener regarding a subject which gets very little attention nowadays - despite the fact that the institution of slavery only ended on these shores less than 150 years ago. (If that seems impossibly long ago to you, consider that Stella Mae Case, who died in June of this year, was the daughter of a Civil War soldier, meaning we are still just a generation or two away from that troubled period in the life of our country.)
The United States still feels the economic and social effects of its slave-owning past - and its cultural effects, as well. For example, popular music as we know it today would have been a very different thing indeed had four million black Americans not been suddenly freed in the mid-1860s. That event changed black American music almost immediately.
During the antebellum years, the dominant song types among slave populations had been the work song and the spiritual, two genres which emphasized a community identity for black Americans. But as newly freed African-Americans left the South in droves following the Civil War, heading for the urban centers of the Northeast and the wide expanses of the Southwest, families fractured and popular songs among blacks began to speak to a growing sense of loneliness and isolation, themes which would become woven into the new folk music popularly known as "the blues."
It was the end of slavery that also allowed black Americans to begin to infiltrate America's burgeoning show business. One of the first black stars to rise on the concert circuit in the wake of the Great Emancipation was a former slave who had been blind since birth, but who evinced an astonishing talent for the piano from the age of 7.
Thomas Greene Bethune, or "Blind Tom" as he was popularly known, sold out concert halls throughout the United States and in Europe, traveling much farther than he could have ever hoped after being born to a slave woman named Charity Wiggins. (Bethune was given his surname by his one-time owner, General James Neil Bethune.)
Blind Tom's career started while he was still a slave, and even after he was freed, he continued to work under the tutelage of General Bethune and his son. Blind Tom probably suffered from a form of autism, and was subject to violent shifts of temper and periods of incommunicability - but when he sat down at a piano, his musical grace and ability to emulate almost any sound he heard with his instrument made him famous - and rich.
However, after being declared insane in 1872, most of Blind Tom's fortune was squandered by a succession of managers. He died of a stroke in 1908, having continued to play on the vaudeville circuit as late as 1903. We'll look at a few of the other black stars to rise in the years immediately following the end of slavery next week in this space. Until then, have a very merry Christmas!

NeoStrata Customer ReviewsAmazing antiwrinkle lotion - 12/9/2014 6:08:26 AM I have used this product for greater than 5 years. I am over 50 now and hardly have any wrinkles by my eyes and upper lip areas. The glycolic acid works very well in this product to reduce fine lines and tighten skin. Extremely happy!Compare to AmLactin - 11/21/2014 6:07:46 AM As prescribed by a dermatologist I've used Amlactin (LacHydrin) for years all over except face. Neostrata Lotion Plus does the same thing without the odor and stickiness. I have terrible sun-damaged skin prone to acne. I use the Lotion on my chest, shoulders arms and neck. For me this is the only cost-effective way to moisturize and smooth those areas.Happy, but ... - 11/13/2014 9:14:09 AM it's too soon to tell for sure. My skin has improved, feels softer, looks better, but as we all know, nothing makes the wrinkles go away permanently! I like Neo Strata products, esp. the Skin Active line. My derm recommended them to me and every time I change to something new, I end up coming back. I use the serum, day and night creams and the eye cream in this line and they work. I just started using this neck cream. I use it in the morning and before bedtime. None of these products irritates my skin which is sometimes sensitive. Definitely recommend.Not Enough. - 10/20/2014 8:31:49 AM I had to return this sunscreen. It was too greasy for me, even though it is marketed as a sunscreen for oily/acne prone skin. The dimethicone/silcone ingredients in this product were too heavy on my skin and made me break out and caused grease production. My skin is very sensitive to dimethicone. I was just hoping since this was made especially for oily skin, it would work well. It did feel nice and smooth (thanks to the dimethicone), but it just sat on top of my skin and gathered oil. If you currently use a skin primer and love that feel, since those are just straight dimethicone, you will probably love this and you could even skip your primer. It just wasn't for my skin. Also, it is VERY small. I use a lot of sunscreen on my face and neck to make sure I'm getting enough coverage and this would not have lasted very long. I will return to my tried 'n' true Neutrogena Clear Face/Break Out Free SPF 30 sunscreen.Love this product!! - 9/14/2014 7:48:55 AM This is one of the better peels that I have used and it's easy to apply. I received a sample from my dermatologist and loved it. My skin looks good and feels soft.Like, but not sure if I love it - 5/20/2014 5:35:42 AM My derm recommended NeoStrata to me and I have been using their products for several months now. I do believe it keeps my skin soft and helps with lines and wrinkles, but, sadly, there is no miracle cure for aging skin :). I do not see any change in the firmness of my skin which this product says it aids in. Overall I like the NeoStrata line very much but still searching for a miracle! Would recommend.Best face wash ever used - 4/3/2014 8:00:41 AM I have been using this face wash for over 3 years now and finally decided to review it. It is a must have. I developed some adult cystic acne spots, which is what prompted me to get it initially. Needless to say, it cleared that problem up and I haven't had any breakouts since. The other added bonuses are smoother skin texture and reduction of fine lines. I get compliments on my skin all the time now that I use this product as well as several other of the products in the Neostrata line. It's a great line and compared to the cost of some RX lines, this one is the best for the price.Hidden treasure - 3/19/2014 7:08:05 AM I highly recommend this to any woman who wears makeup. It is moisturizing but not greasy, and makes the eye area look amazing.Actually works - 2/11/2014 8:39:45 AM I returned to this product after giving my skin a break because this is the only product that clears up my spots fairly quickly. I use once a day night only to avoid over drying.Disappointing - 12/26/2013 11:23:32 PM Ordered this based on 2 previous good reviews (I wonder now who wrote them). This product is very poorly absorbed and leaves cheesy crumbly residue even when only a tiny amount is applied. I returned it after 2 weeks--no point waiting longer to see if it actually had any beneficial effect.

NeoStrata Customer Reviews
NeoStrata Skin Active Cellular Restoration - Wonderful product, have been using Neostrata for about one year.
NeoStrata Skin Active Intensive Eye Therapy - I requested and got advice from the Skin Store experts for a product that lifts and firms around eyes, also dealing with small wrinkles, that was NOT irritating and counter-indicated for sensitive skin. I have been using this product for fully three weeks now, and have found that the effect--reduced puffiness, "tighter" skin, and minimizing look of wrinkles--was almost immediate! I couldn't have been more pleased. Excellent hydration--my make-up goes on better--and NO irritation. I love it. Thanks, SS experts!
NeoStrata Lotion Plus AHA 15 - My dermatologist told me over a decade to use this product on my hands and neck (to keep it taut), and I listened. It can discolor some items (washcloths, pillow cases), but it is an effective and helpful product that goes recommended.
NeoStrata Face Cream Plus AHA 15 - I was introduced to the product through Doc's office. I am 64 and I get compliments all the time about how great my skin looks. I have to give genes some credit but Neostrata is absolutely amazing. I panic when I get low on the product.
NeoStrata Skin Active Matrix Support SPF 30 - I travel to Texas and Florida regularly - this moisturizer provides excellent SPF protection without any tinge of zinc, or other odd color, and is fragrance free. I combine this product with Jane Iredale's BB Cream and it leaves my skin glowing. This product hits the middle in terms of weight - not heavy, not light. Matrix Support SPF 30 is my current "fav" :)
NeoStrata Bio-Hydrating Cream - PHA 15 - I have used this for about a year and think it's great. My skin is very clear. I use it mostly at night unless I know I'm not going to be wearing makeup. I sometimes notice my makeup looking a little cakey so I use the PHA10 Ultra Moisturizing Face Cream when I wear makeup. Great combination!

Associated Press
RICHMOND, Va. - The Virginia Senate will consider legislation backed by Gov. Bob McDonnell to automatically restore nonviolent felons' voting rights after the measure won a committee's endorsement Tuesday.
The Privileges and Elections Committee voted 10-5 to endorse a resolution calling for a constitutional amendment that would give the General Assembly authority to determine which nonviolent offenses would be eligible for automatic restoration of rights after they've served their sentences. Currently, only the governor can restore felons' rights.
Democrats have championed automatic restoration for years but have gotten nowhere in the Republican-controlled General Assembly. They got an unexpected boost when the Republican governor backed the idea in his State of the Commonwealth speech to open the 2013 legislative session.
Attorney General Kenneth Cuccinelli, who is unopposed for the GOP nomination for governor this year, also supports the change and urged committee members to approve the resolution sponsored by Sen. Louise Lucas, D-Portsmouth.
"Ten years ago I would not have been here supporting this effort," said Cuccinelli, a former state senator.
But he said years of watching the Legislature elevate misdemeanors to felonies helped convince him automatic restoration is appropriate for "low-level" felons.
"If you look historically at what it means qualitatively to be a felon in Virginia, it's not the same as it was 100 years ago," Cuccinelli said. "This is a modest but system-wide and very fair change to make. It helps to ameliorate some of the overkill on the punishment side of our criminal justice system."
Felons who regain their voting rights would automatically be qualified to serve on a jury _ an outcome that Sen. Thomas A. Garrett Jr., a prosecutor, does not relish.
"There's nothing that scarier to me than having someone convicted of a larceny offense sitting on my larceny jury," said Garrett, R-Louisa.
Garrett and four other Republicans voted against the measure. If it clears the evenly divided Senate, as expected, the resolution likely faces more resistance in a more heavily Republican House of Delegates where all 100 seats are up for election in November. A House subcommittee already has killed that chamber's version of the legislation.
In Virginia, a constitutional amendment must be passed by two legislative sessions _ with a House election in between _ before going to voters in a referendum. That means if the resolution does clear both chambers this year, it will have to be passed again by the 2014 General Assembly.

What makes the Last stand+ER buff so nice is you put a 30% health buffer between you and death,and while the mobs are working on the fake health your real health has time to regen.
Unfortunately Wowhead is non-functional at the time of writing this so I'll edit links in later... but here ya go:
Repelling Charge (Naxxramas 10, Thaddius)
Equip: Increases defense rating by 84.
Use: Increases maximum health by 3025 for 15 sec. (3 Min Cooldown)
Offering of Sacrifice (Gundrak Heroic, final boss)
550 Armor
Use: Increases maximum health by 3025 for 15 sec. (3 Min Cooldown)
Both of these offer significant last stand abilities for each of the tanking classes. Since they are pure defensive trinkets, they can also be popped simultaneously... but don't do it! They both provide a buff called "Resolute," and using the second trinket while Resolute is still active will simply refresh the buff without providing additional healing. Use a /cancelaura or, if you're just grinding and health isn't a big issue, simply alternate the trinket uses. Enjoy!
Last Stand & Enraged Regeneration (Prot Warriors)
Speaking of health recovery, Clavarnway recently posted a thread detailing the synergy between Last Stand and Enraged Regeneration. While Last Stand is active, the additional health gained does count towards your total healing from Enraged Regeneration -- making a 30% HOT become a 39% HOT.
What makes the Last stand+ER buff so nice is you put a 30% health buffer between you and death,and while the mobs are working on the fake health your real health has time to regen.
Very nice stuff. The Defense Trinket is particularly exciting because getting a massive chunk on a trinket allows you some flexability elsewhere. The Armor trinket is pretty slick to for flat mitigation and some AP bonus through AttT.
I've never been one to mash all my CDs at once very often unless its a very unique situation. Usually its a slience or an AoE stun or something odd like web wrap or some such....sucks having nothing left at 25% when you blew it all at 50%.
Another nice trinket is the Essence of Gossamar from heroic Azjol Nerub. 111 Stam and a pretty sexy armor proc though I'd rather it be an 'on use' function.
your hat may be nice, but I have the little white tank top that says Legendary right across my boobs. I win. (or more correctly, H wins)
exactly loquat, unless of course... you're down to the last 30% of your health... lol
READ THIS: Posting & Chat Rules
Sounds like a macro to pop your trinket, last stand and enraged regeneration would be even better! Nice Tip!
Kungen's armory, he has about 30k HP unbuffed. Assuming he had a trinket that did 3025 HP, Commanding Shout, and then Last Stand, and no other raid buffs or even food buffs, that means his Enraged Regeneration would give him 13,584 HP, or 1,358 HP per second.
Along with food buffs, raid buffs, etc, with all those cooldowns popped you're looking at 1,500 HP per second AT LEAST heals!
I think the math is right...
Is that armor trinket effected by toughness?
i have had similar experiences on my druid with imp LOTP and frenzied regen when used with last stand.
Raid buffed the other night on patchwerk i had 54K HP when i hit survival instincts (feral last stand). My imp LOTP was healing me for 2300 and my frenzied regen was healing me for 2K a tick.
i have had some very funny pvp situtations where i rogue will jump me in caster and will get me down to 10%ish in caster, i go to bear hit last stand barkskin and frenzied regen, get 1 crit and will be back at 1/2 health almost instantly.

Anderson Cooper, Harold Ford, Jr and Bob Guccione, Jr
After a long holiday weekend left the usual Wednesday lunch crowd without their weekly power lunch fix, the town car set who could tear themselves away from their Hampton cottages returned to Michael's today. I say we outlaw any more midweek July 4th holidays. Too confusing!
I was joined today by Bob Guccione, Jr. who I met last year when we weighed in on the ever expanding culture of celebrity for a journalism panel for Names Not Numbers. After crossing paths in this dining room several times over the past year, we decided it was time for a proper Michael's lunch once and for all.
I wasn't disappointed. Bob ventured in for our lunch and some other important business in town from his home in rural Pennsylvania ("I'm one postage stamp away from being the unabomber!'). A few years ago, having grown "sick of New York" he decamped to Mississippi to teach journalism and has decided country life beats living in Manhattan hands down. "It's so peaceful," he says.
Bob tells a terrific tale of his fascinating career in media that started at the age of 18 in the UK when he became Britain's youngest ever publisher. A year later, he launched Rock Superstars making him the youngest publisher in America. As the son of one of publishing's most colorful figures, it seems his career path was predetermined but, says Bob, "I knew I loved it. I wanted to be a writer but I had no life experience."
That changed pretty quickly. In 1985, he launched SPIN, sold it in 1997 t0 Vibe Ventures, and launched Gear in 1998. Then, in 2005 he bought Discover from Disney. He remembers the moment well. "The staff regarded me with some trepidation. When I told them 'We're in the entertainment business,' there was an audible gasp in the room." By the time he stepped down as chairman two years later, the magazine had returned to profitability.
Our conversation revolved around passion for the business and the elusive quest for profitability and Bob had plenty to say on both fronts. Besides being incredibly funny (sorry, but his best remarks are off the record), the tireless entrepreneur proved to be a fascinating lunch date as he shared his extremely well-reasoned take on why he believes writers will one day be able to make a living online and why magazines are far from over. "Everything about digital media happened too fast, and people back the wrong model too quickly," he told me. Exhibit A: The Huffington Post, which Bob says is "doomed to fail" and called it "a white elephant — it's the default model."
