A stream and a short bridge separate Burnaby Village Museum from the outside world. Crossing over is like stepping into a time machine, one that transports visitors back to a tram-stop community in the early 20th century. In fact, an original electric tram is still there, as is an entire town of living, breathing historical characters.
Heated air seeps into students' pores as they enter Bikram Yoga Burnaby's two heated practice rooms, preparing muscles for workouts filled with deep, therapeutic stretches. Mindful of new and old faces alike, the instructors begin to demonstrate the 26 Hatha poses meant to promote health, longevity, and a youthful appearance. Each beginner-friendly pose builds upon the next, summoning cleansing beads of sweat as students flex and bend atop antimicrobial flooring and near wall-length mirrors. Focused breathing exercises help students expel stress with each exhalation, clearing minds of fog and worry.
Before and after classes, students may explore the 11,000-square-foot facility's other amenities, which range from child care and towel service to showers and a juice bar. Fresh flowers add a hint of nature to the clean, modern lines of marble countertops and lounge tables, where students gather to socialize before heading to the nearby SkyTrain or a flying monkey parked in the studio's free lot.

For nearly a quarter of a century, Oliver Twist Pub has provisioned patrons with to-go and bar-side libations alongside feasts of eclectic pub fare. Inside the welcoming two-storey pub or on the open-air patio, patrons sup on hearty burgers, steak, and seafood, or pastas and rice bowls inspired by cuisines from around the world, washing down meals with frosty brews on tap. As the Canucks complete blind passes and flawless toe loops and football and baseball players battle it out on the nine HDTVs, the air buzzes with the excitement of nighttime activities ranging from karaoke and DJ sets to poker tournaments and music bingo.
Oliver Twist's attached liquor store equips on-the-go customers with a full range of lottery prizes, wines, liquors, and a walk-in chilled beer cave that mimics the Neanderthal frozen brew palaces of the Ice Age.
It's hard to tell what's more awe-inspiring: a 150-inch high-definition TV screen ablaze with a heated sports game or a 6-ounce beef burger patty towering with bacon, danish blue cheese, and blue-cheese mayo. Great Bear Pub lures patrons into its dark-wood restaurant with both of these treats, along with four other signature burgers, more than 20 craft beers, and a slate-stone outdoor dining area lined with televisions of its own. Patrons dig into internationally inspired eats, such as jamaican steak bites and cheese-stuffed pierogi, or stop in for a quick lunch that's prepared and presented in less than 10 minutes. The sophisticated pub also hosts live entertainment six nights a week, and sits alongside its own liquor store to ensure dry pint glasses don't stage political revolts.
Anytime Fitness, which boasts 1689 clubs in North America, makes it easier for average folks to etch out time for exercise by doing one simple thing: staying open 24 hours a day for 365 days a year. As fit-seekers challenge themselves on Nautilus cardio and strength machines and hoist free weights in clean, well-stocked facilities, security monitoring ensures they're safe and producing enough sweat to meet official government standards. Members can also ramp up their exercise regimens with the help of Anytime Fitness' staff of personal trainers, who demonstrate moves and sling motivating tips. After workouts, guests can shower in the private restrooms or bop into one of the tanning booths available 24 hours a day.

Charges upgraded for nephew after aunt dies
Updated On: Dec 04 2012 04:17:31 PM EST
Charges were upgraded Tuesday for a man accused of striking his 63-year-old aunt after she died Monday.
Police said Brian Lagitch, 39, of Atlantic Beach, attacked his aunt, Nancy Waldron, at a garage sale at his home Saturday.
Police said Lagitch admitted to hitting Waldron, who was taken to a hospital with life-threatening injuries.
Lagitch was arrested and initially charged with felony battery causing great bodily harm.
Waldron died Monday as a result of her injuries, and Lagitch's charges were upgraded to manslaughter.
According to a police report, Lagitch's mother, Karen Lagitch, told police she heard her son and her sister arguing in the front yard of Brian Lagitch's home at 91 13th St. West on Saturday afternoon.
Karen Lagitch told officers she went outside and discovered Waldron "bleeding from a cut near her eye and her glasses broken."
The report said Brian Lagitch told his mother that Waldron, "had pushed him and he struck her in the face."

March is Talk to Your Teens About Sex Month! If you're struggling over how to explain the birds and bees to your kids, here are some lessons to share, courtesy of Donna and David, Seth and Summer, and other TV young'uns
Good things come to those who wait. And wait. And wait.
Relationships bloomed and fizzled throughout the first seven seasons of Beverly Hills, 90210, but two things remained constant: the steadfast virtue of Donna Martin (Tori Spelling), and the sexual frustration of her on-again, off-again paramour David Silver (Brian Austin Green). But on May 21, 1997, the duo finally consummated their love in a Very Special Episode. Better still, the gal who didn't believe in premarital sex was able to rope her man for good: Some three years later, Donna and David tied the knot on the 90210 series finale.

Thought Coalition at TATE'S Comics

After what feels like weeks of ponderous marching from point A to point B in your titular "Hound" -- a walking tank -- combat erupts. The fighting is fast and ferocious, and ends quickly. After the smoke clears, the march resumes.
Ultimately, whether you love or hate Chromehounds will boil down to how you feel about its pacing. Equal parts dull and frenetic, it's a game that will disappoint some as much as it excites others.
Take Chromehounds' single-player game: Aside from one or two new ideas, it's boringly conventional. At best, it's a dress rehearsal for the "real" game -- the online modes. If you don't have Xbox Live, don't even bother buying this.
For those who can go online, Chromehounds is a unique and involving experience. After picking a side in a near-future war, you'll join a squad of teammates. Thankfully, the game offers excellent filters to help you find players of your skill level. (Anything that helps us avoid Xbox Live's infamous sea of 12-year-old gamers with Tourette's deserves praise.)
With that, your tour of duty begins. Once you're presented with a map of the war-torn world, it's time to release the Hound. Every victory and loss will affect the course of the war. It's riveting to know that your actions -- whether it's reclaiming a hayfield or sacking the enemy capital -- have global consequences that will reverberate through other players' games. If there's one idea in Chromehounds that other developers of online games should shamelessly steal, this is it.
Aside from the spectacular combat, the most enjoyable part of Chromehounds is the garage, where you design your own Hound, down to the smallest lug nut. This usually involves carefully balancing speed, armor, and firepower. Too much weight, and you'll be a sluggish sitting duck. Lighten it up, and you're mostly harmless.
Online battlefields showcase the near-infinite variety of Hounds that can be built, from tiny, wheeled scouts to gargantuan, four-legged monstrosities. Players can even pimp their rides with custom paint jobs and decals, adorning the sides of their war machines with a smartly placed purple Yoda or, more commonly, crude drawings of male or female anatomy.
Despite Chromehounds' depth and personality, it makes a few discouraging gaffes.
First is the speed. Combat-worthy Hounds have one gear: slow motion. It only gets worse if your Hound's legs are damaged in a firefight: You'll feel like it would be faster to get out and push the 100-ton mech.
Presumably, the designers made the Hounds sluggish to realistically depict how a building-sized machine would move. But in a game about giant robots, realism is pretty much out the window already, so they might as well have made it fun.
The other problem is that Chromehounds, an extremely complicated game, doesn't even bother trying to explain itself to new players. Oh, you want to buy a machine gun? You must mean an RFZ-WMG-1! See a radiator on the shelf, and wonder what it does? The game tersely explains: "Offers good cooling performance." Well, duh, but why is that good? You're left to figure it out for yourself.
Clearly, Chromehounds was designed with a very specific player in mind: a meticulous tweaker, with plenty of time to spend online. For him, Chromehounds will offer months -- if not years -- of enjoyment.
But for the rest of us, this is the rare case of a very good game that you probably shouldn't bother playing.

Nesco FD-60 Snackmaster Express 6 Tray Food Dehydrator
Product Rating:
- Product Review (submitted on January 9, 2012):
Absolutely met our expectations! Our old dehydrator used one 100 Watt light bulb and took up to 18 hours for two trays of beef jerky. We can now do twice the amount in 1/3 the time and clean up is easier, too. We are very pleased.

Barrels and choke tubes
The barrels in Chrome-Moly steel are drilled and reamed to improve elasticity and, therefore, ballistic performance.
They also come with an impeccable finish thanks to a double polishing process: by hand first and then by robot.
We offer different types of top ribs and sights depending on the use the shotgun
is intended for. Our standard field shotguns come with ventilated top ribs while our high quality field models come with traditional solid tapered ribs. Both ribs are filed and provided with brass beads. Our competition shotguns come with white beads mounted on 10-mm tapered top ribs. The longitudinal filing of the ribs allows shooters to better control their aiming positions.
On request our barrels can undergo the "Steel Shot" test.
Our 12ga barrels feature a new bore geometry called "Maxisbore". The new bore has also been combined with a new forcing cone between chambers and bore called "Duecon". Both "Maxisbore" and "DueCon" make it possible to increase pellet velocity, reduce misshaping and decrease felt recoil.
On request our shotguns in light alloy can be provided with our special "RAYE" barrels specifically studied for woodcock hunting in the woods. The top tube comes with an interchangeable "Maxischoke" choke tube while the last 14 cm of the lower tube feature a special radius, which generates a very wide, even and homogenous shot pattern even at 8-10 meters.
Along with the "Maxisbore" project we have also introduced our "Maxischoke" interchangeable choke tubes.
They are longer than the "Selectachoke" models. Their constriction angle is smoother to the advantage of the shot pattern. Every choke tube in the Caesar Guerini line ("Selectachokes" and "Maxichokes") is made of special steel alloy and is extremely resistant. Different constrictions are available for our field and competition shotguns.

Jesus mediates only for 144, 000 Jehovah's Witnesses
Jesus is mediator only for the 144,000 elite JWs
"The Desire for Peace and Security Worldwide," 1986, p. 9-12
"Likewise, the Greater Moses, Jesus Christ, is not the Mediator between Jehovah God and all mankind. He is the Mediator between his heavenly Father, Jehovah God, and the nation of spiritual Israel, which is limited to only 144,000 members," ("The Desire for Peace and Security Worldwide," 1986, p. 10).
Comment: If the JW's who are not in the 144,000 don't have a mediator, then doesn't that mean that they are dead in their sins?
. . . continued . . .
page 9
The situation of our day calls for us to make a definite choice. It is a choice between the rival sovereignty of Satan the Devil, "the god of this system of things," and the sovereignty of Jehovah, the Most High and Almighty God of the universe.--2 Corinthians 4:4; Psalm 83:18.
The Way to Enjoy Peace With God
With painful hurt to themselves, most of mankind do not desire to accept or to believe in the Almighty God's provision for his worshipers to enjoy relative peace and security even in this most lamentable state of human affairs. However, Jehovah is "the God who gives peace," and it is our blessed privilege now to enter into a peace and security that will never fail. (Romans 16:20; Philippians 4:6, 7, 9) It is a peace and security that he gives even now to his body of earthly servants, his visible organization, in fulfillment of his ever-reliable
page 10
promises. It is a peace and security that we can enjoy only in association with his visible organization on earth.
It would be out of line with the plain teachings of the Scriptures to believe that God does not have an organization, an organized people, that he exclusively recognizes. Jesus Christ recognized that his heavenly Father had a visible organization. Until Pentecost 33 C.E., it was the Jewish organization in covenant relationship with Jehovah God under the Law of Moses.--Luke 16:16.
Just as the ancient nation of Israel was in a covenant relationship with Jehovah God through the mediator Moses, so the nation of spiritual Israel, "the Israel of God," has a covenant relationship through a mediator. (Galatians 6:16) It is as the apostle Paul wrote to his Christian fellow worker: "There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, a man, Christ Jesus." (1 Timothy 2:5) Was Moses the mediator between Jehovah God and mankind in general? No, he was the mediator between the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and the nation of their fleshly descendants. Likewise, the Greater Moses, Jesus Christ, is not the Mediator between Jehovah God and all mankind. He is the Mediator between his heavenly Father, Jehovah God, and the nation of spiritual Israel, which is limited to only 144,000 members.
page 11
This spiritual nation is like a little flock of Jehovah's sheeplike ones.--Romans 9:6; Revelation 7:4.
Shepherd Over More Than the "Little Flock"
In Psalm 23:1, King David of ancient Israel was inspired to say: "Jehovah is my Shepherd. I shall lack nothing." Jehovah, the Supreme Shepherd, has assigned Jesus Christ to be "the fine shepherd." (John 10:11) At Luke 12:32, Jesus addressed himself to those of whom he is the Fine Shepherd: "Have no fear, little flock, because your Father has approved of giving you the kingdom."
In ancient times, there were non-Jews, such as the Nethinim and the sons of non-Israelite servants of Solomon, who were associated with the nation of Israel. (Ezra 2:43-58; 8:17-20) Similarly today, there are men and women who are wholly dedicated to God through Jesus Christ but who are not spiritual Israelites. They are, however, associated with the remnant of spiritual Israel because of dedicating themselves to Jehovah God through Jesus Christ, "who gave himself a corresponding ransom for all." (1 Timothy 2:6) Today, these far outnumber the 144,000 spiritual Israelites, who are to inherit the heavenly Kingdom.
page 12
Thus Jesus Christ was to be assigned, in God's due time, to be the Shepherd over a much larger flock of sheeplike ones who would come into an earthly inheritance through him. These are the ones whom he had in mind when he said: "I have other sheep, which are not of this fold; those also I must bring, and they will listen to my voice, and they will become one flock, one shepherd." Having in mind these "other sheep," the apostle John also wrote of Jesus: "He is a propitiatory sacrifice for our sins, yet not for ours only but also for the whole world's."--John 10:16; 1 John 2:2.
Today, there are about 9,000 who profess to be members of the remnant of the "little flock" of spiritual sheep. On the other hand, there are millions of dedicated ones who are associated with the anointed remnant in following in the footsteps of the Fine Shepherd, Jesus Christ. They are to be found in over 200 lands around the globe. What does the pastoral care of that Fine Shepherd mean for all of them? It means the enjoyment of peace and security! If they did not have peace in their ranks, there would not be heartfelt unity and unbreakable cooperation among them. If they did not have mutual loving concern for one another as respects spiritual interests, they would not have the security that they enjoy. Thus, their desire for peace and security earth wide has begun to be satisfied even now.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

While Congress is ahead of the public on overhauling the health care system, the public is ahead of lawmakers on immigration reform, said a megachurch pastor Tuesday.
"One of the things that I perceived when I was both at the capital yesterday and in the White House is this (immigration reform) seems to be an issue that the public is out ahead of politicians on," said the Rev. Rich Nathan, pastor of the 10,000-member Vineyard Church in Columbus, Ohio.
Vineyard Church has a diverse body of congregants who collectively represent 75 nations. more >>
For thousands of Haitian children, the new norm of life is being played out in crowded tent cities or even worse – the streets – with no focused activity and no hope of schools opening any time soon. Even as the beleaguered government of a devastated nation scrambles to make the April 1 goal of reopening schools – the second such goal since the earthquake on Jan. 12 – it's becoming all too clear that making this goal, according to a New York Times article on March 6, is becoming "increasingly remote."
Of course, these children need to get back into the classroom so they can learn the necessary skills needed to become productive citizens in their country, but it isn't only their education that needs to be addressed. Safety is also a major concern as these children living in tent cities are vulnerable to all sorts of crime. In addition, with the rainy season which lasts from March until May and the subsequent hurricane season which runs its course from June to November, the children could be exposed to all sorts of virulent weather.
It's clear that Haiti will need foreign assistance for some time as the reopening of public schools is just one of many issues the nation's government is trying to address. However, even as the work to rebuild Haiti has barely begun, interest is waning. The outpouring of support was tremendous at the beginning, but like so many disasters in the past, interest drops off dramatically when the long and tedious process of rebuilding begins. more >>
After six weeks of being detained in a Haitian jail, Charisa Coulter finally arrived home in Idaho Saturday night.
Dozens, including her father, Mel, and some of the volunteers who had been jailed with her, sang "Amazing Grace" as they welcomed her at the Boise, Idaho, Airport.
Coulter, 24, was the ninth of 10 Christians to return home after Haitian judge Bernard Saint-Vil ruled that there was no evidence to support charges of kidnapping and criminal association against her. more >>
A seminary student in Haiti faithfully holds Bible studies on the rubble of his home.
Despite the grim surroundings, Uriel Blanchet says, "I would not want to be anywhere else."
Blanchet is a second-year student at STEP, the evangelical theological seminary in Port-au-Prince. His house was completely destroyed in the 7.0-magnitude earthquake that killed more than 230,000 people in January and left more than a million homeless. more >>
The ninth of ten American volunteers who were jailed in Haiti on child abduction charges was freed and landed in Miami Monday night.
Charisa Coulter, 24, was released by Haitian judge Bernard Saint-Vil who ruled that there was no evidence to support charges of kidnapping and criminal association against her.
Now only Laura Silsby, the leader of the American Christian team, remains in the Port-au-Prince jail. The other eight American volunteers were released Feb. 17. more >>
A Haitian judge signed an order for release of one of two American volunteers in jail on child kidnapping charges. But an administrative problem has delayed her release.
Charisa Coulter will be allowed to return to the United States as soon as court administrators can find an official stamp to validate the judge's order.
"I already signed the release order," said Judge Bernard Sainvil, according to Reuters. "All that is left now is to seal it but they cannot find the official stamp." more >>

Wedding Etiquette from the Designers Who Make the Gowns
Should a bride wear flats on her wedding day? Who better to ask than the fashion designers VF Daily found congregated around a sparkling, six-tier wedding cake at last night's Crystallized™ Swarovski Elements party on a Rockefeller Center rooftop. The event kicked off New York's Bridal Market Week and celebrated Unbridled: The Marriage of Tradition and Avant Garde, a new coffee-table book featuring one-of-a-kind high-end wedding gowns created by the dressmakers on hand, including Phillip Lim, who is behind the coveted 3.1 Phillip Lim line; Monique Lhuillier, the wedding-dress-designer-to-the-stars who has boutiques in Los Angeles and Edina, Minnesota; Anne Barge, the former managing director of Richard Branson's Virgin Bride who has her own atelier in Atlanta's Four Seasons Hotel; and Reem Acra, a luxury designer with a New York City flagship.
We also ran into Elizabeth Banks, the star of the upcoming Zack and Miri Make a Porno, who chimed in about wedding etiquette.
|VF Daily: Can a wedding dress be anything besides white?
Phillip Lim: I'm such a classicist. Your wedding day is the one day in your life that you can be pristine, be the princess, wear white satin. Why not embrace it?
How might a bride avoid pressure to wear her mother's wedding dress?
P.L.: I think—well, what could you do? If the dress didn't fit, there's nothing you could do. Also, a bride could say the dress didn't fit the colors of her wedding.
|What's the best way for the bride to carry wedding-day necessities?
Monique Lhuillier: I recommend a pretty clutch that can fit Kleenex, mints, lipstick, and pressed powder. The bride wouldn't necessarily carry it herself—she should have a great maid of honor to take care of it.
|Is it O.K. for a bride to wear flats on her wedding day?
Anne Barge: She can, but she won't walk very well. She'll be more graceful with even a small heel … that is, unless her wedding is on the beach.
Must bridesmaids' dresses be ugly? Should they all be the same style?
A.B.: Bridesmaids' dresses should be comparable to the bride's in their level of formality. They should provide a backdrop to the bride, in formality and color.
Is it frowned upon for a bride to kick off her shoes and dance barefoot at the reception?
A.B.: If it's at the beach, then great. If it is a formal wedding, there is a level of decorum that must be practiced. If her shoes are comfortable, there's no need to take them off.
|Are gloves O.K. for the bride to wear during weddings of all seasons?
Reem Acra: I am someone who doesn't believe in rules. Gloves are all about attitude. They are not for a particular season, but a bride should be able to wear them well. Otherwise, don't bother.
What do you think: can a wedding dress be a color besides white?
R.A.: Yes! One day, wedding dresses will be colors besides white. I ease into it with shades of white—pastel colors.
If you were to make your ideal nonwhite wedding dress, what would it look like?
R.A.: I'd make a beautiful blue dress, with gold embroidery.
Is it bad luck for the groom to see the bride's dress before the wedding?
R.A.: I don't believe in bad luck in this sense, though I do believe in bad luck. In this case, no. But it is nice to be surprised—keep it a secret. Isn't a woman more beautiful with a secret behind her eyes?
|What do you say to a casual friend who knows about your wedding but isn't invited?
Elizabeth Banks: You should be able to invite people from your past and future—you should never feel obligated to invite anyone. Invite the people you hope to know better, and honor the people from your past.
Do the parents get any say in that?
E.B.: I told my parents I didn't want to spend my wedding day with people I didn't know.
Unbridled: The Marriage of Tradition and Avant Garde features wedding couture by Phillip Lim, Reem Acra, Monique Lhuillier, Anne Barge, Vera Wang, John Galliano, Armani, Vivian Westwood, and others.

This product has been discontinued
More reviews by arbyscurlyfries
I use this mascara everyday and do not plan on using a different kind ever again! It makes my eyelashes volumized and long, that I do not even need to curl my eyelashes anymore. The wand could be a bit more sturdier, but for $6 it is definitely worth it.
Ive been trying various mascaras recently because I feel like I just havent found the HG mascara for me.
After using this for a few weeks, Im quite impressed. It coats really well & quick, builds up extremely well & lasts all day/night without any problems. Sure, its not waterproof so tears & perspiration or rubbing will cause it to "run" smudge but thats the price you pay for not buying waterproof.
I have this in the "satin black" version which is versatile & does what its supposed to.
Overall I would recommend this product. I like the rubber applicator as opposed to a brush & I like that it doesnt smell overtly weird.
This is my favourite mascara at the moment and I even get complimented or asked what mascara I use! Now I have been blessed to have pretty long, dark, thick lashes that just go straight down and I always have a problem with it never holding a curl and clumping. Even with my lashes I still go for a longer dramatic un clumped look. This mascara does not smudge , clump or takes out a curl! I love it. The mascara really lenghthens my lashes and really separates them one by one like the name! It holds the curl all day and really defines and makes them pop and visible. The formula is kind of dry for my liking. However I would re buy this once I get the chance and run out. It's my everyday mascara and never fails me. Even with my watery eyes :)
I gave into the hype on this one. I mean, I heard so many people saying this was a HG product of thiers, I just had to try it! I was super excited to take it home, but when I opened it up, things went down hill from there. when i first opened it, it had such a strong smell that I got a bit of a headache. I could smell it when drying on my lashes for the first week. The first week it applied nicely, but it quickly started to get dry and thick, and had a creamy texture to it. (I prefer wetter mascara) I dont have thick lashes, which usually isnt a problem, but for some reason, it made my lashes look very sparse. No, it doesnt clump, and it seperates very well, but when I applied more than one coat, it flaked horribly after about a few hours.
The packaging was another problem. The wand is a nice shape, but each bristle only has mascara on one side of it, the side that faces down into the bottle. It doesnt coat my lashes the way I want it to. Also, the stopper that takes off the excess product keeps slidding out of place when I open it, so mascar gets all over the tube and on my hands. I have to fix it every time I open it. This might be why each bristle is not fully coated.
Maybe I bought a faulty tube, but i dont want to risk buying another tube of this disaster to find out.
love it. best mascara I've used so far and curls my straight Asian lashes so well
One by One is a decent mascara as long as you don't mind a slight smell of roses when applying it (but it doesn't linger). It didn't bother me, but some people might be sensitive to smells.
I actually really like the brush - rubber bristles and it's shaped oval like a football. It makes it easy for getting into the corners of your eyes. What I don't like is the wand. My lashes are thick, and the wand bends, so the brush doesn't comb through my lashes like it should. Even trying to wiggle it through my lashes doesn't work. Also, I didn't have any problems with flaking or smudging.
I won't repurchase, but I think this mascara would be fine for someone who has thin or sparse lashes.
I LOVE this mascara! Separates lashes really well and makes them look super long
I like this so far. It gave me a fanned look to my lashes without me curling them with an eyelash curler, which is awesome, I always love mascaras that give me a bit of curl. It also does live up to what it claims to do, which is deliver clump free volume. I love how if another mascara gets my lashes all clumpy, I can go over it with this mascara and brush, and all the clumps are gone! I've had a problem in the past with Maybelline mascaras drying up after a few months and getting all clumpy on me, so I really hope this doesn't do that. So far, it's great! If you're looking for a mascara that gives you natural looking voluminous curled lashes, then this is the one for you! :)
More reviews by AsianWonder805
Well the formula and bottle and everything was great except the wand. It's a really bendy wand and sometimes if you already have thick lashes it'll just bend and smudge around your eye with product
Although my lashes are long and decently thick and hold a curl with ease, I am realizing I am a mascara snob. I find myself noticing and then staring at the clumps and imperfections in peoples' mascara, so I'm paranoid that the roles ever be reversed. For some reason the mascara chapter in our makeup routine seems to bring out the OCD perfectionist in all of us hahahaha, and I am quite picky about my mascaras. This formula is much wetter than my other favourite mascaras (L'Oreal Voluminous Millions, CG LashBlast in Fusion and Length) , but the brush allowed my heart to be won. This mascara separates my lashes beautifully without sparing length, creating drama and OCD-approved eyelashes. And in one coat to boot. I am a brown mascara fan but the formula is black enough to satisfy the black mascara lovers. Only con is the gaudy packaging, but there are definitely worse mascara tubes in my drawer.

Weekend Reels: Friday, April 11
Prom Night (Screen Gems)
Brittany Snow replaces Jamie Lee Curtis as a homecoming queen turned scream queen in this teen horror remake. What this version loses in atmosphere (no chill-inducing grainy lens, no groovy disco scenes)—it will likely make up for at the box-office with a well-played PG-13 rating.
Verdict: Halloween meets Can't Hardly Wait
Street Kings (Fox Searchlight)
Director David Ayer (Training Day) adapts yet another James Ellroy good cop/bad cop thriller, with Keanu Reeves as an L.A.P.D. detective wrongly accused of a fellow officer's murder, and Oscar-winner Forrest Whitaker as his ball-busting captain. Street cred factor: Common and The Game.
Verdict: S.W.A.T. meets The Fugitive
Smart People (Miramax)
This dysfunctional family dramedy follows a widowed professor (Dennis Quaid) and his precocious teenage daughter (Ellen Paige) through their wanton bobo-ism until the reemergence of a former student (Sarah Jessica Parker) and a freeloading uncle (Thomas Haden Church) turn their whiny world upside down. Church and Paige's quick-witted quips are quasi-comic relief from the weekend's Type A blockbusters.
Verdict: The Family Stone meets Sideways meets Wonder BoysChaos Theory (Warner Bros.)
A small change in Ryan Reynolds's routine leads to a series of disasters, and turns his obsessive control freak into to a freewheeling grabber of life by the balls. If TV director Marcos Siega's third film makes good on yet another high-concept but unwieldy spec script, it'll have been thanks to the underestimated Reynolds, in another range-stretching role. An ambitious but soon-to-be-forgotten indie, especially in limited release.
Verdict: Office Space meets Very Bad Things
Young @ Heart (Fox Searchlight)
A heartwarming, life-affirming favorite of the L.A. Film Festival and Sundance, Stephen Walker's documentary follows the Young@Heart chorus of (sometimes quite) senior citizens as they cover an unexpected repertoire, including Coldplay and Jimi Hendrix, in Northampton, MA.
Verdict: Shine a Light meets Cocoon
The Visitor (Overture Films)
In Station Agent writer-director Tom McCarthy's sophomore film—another critic's darling—an aging, widowed professor's comfortable monotony is shattered when an unexpected pair of multicultural squatters infuse him with a life-affirming love of music.
Verdict: Smart People meets Chaos Theory meets Young @ Heart
—Nicole Berrie and Julian Sancton

At least 33 people have been killed after Cyclone Thane hit India's southeastern coast, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake.
Packing wind speeds of up to 135kph, and accompanied by tidal surges of up to 1.5m, Thane lashed the coast between Cuddalore in Tamil Nadu state and the territory of Pondicherry on Friday, causing coastal villagers to move to relief shelters.
District administrator V Amuvalli in Cuddalore, which bore the brunt of the storm, said the death toll was likely to rise.
"Approximately 50,000 huts are damaged by the high winds but we will get a clearer picture of the damage later today," he said.
Most of the deaths occurred due to electrocution and walls collapsing.
Twenty-two people were killed in Cuddalore, five elsewhere in Tamil Nadu and seven in the former French enclave of Pondicherry.
Officials said engineers were working to restore phone lines and power supplies that were cut off in some regions during the cyclone, while rail and air traffic had resumed normal service on Saturday.
Hundreds of people from fishing communities along north Tamil Nadu's coast, and neighbouring Andhra Pradesh state, were moved to schools set up as relief centres.
Roads blocked by heavy rainfall hampered rescue efforts.
The gale pushed a cargo ship aground on the beaches of Chennai, the Press Trust of India said.
India's cyclone season generally lasts from April to December, with severe storms often causing dozens of deaths, the evacuation of tens of thousands of people from low-lying villages and widespread crop and property damage.
In 1999, a "super-cyclone" battered the coast of the eastern state of Orissa for 30 hours with wind speeds reaching 300kph, killing 10,000 people.

SOUTHPORT, N.C.--The cadence of the parade, cheerful spectators and colorful storefronts describes Southport on July 4th.
It's the home of the North Carolina 4th of July Festival since 1972. The parade draws tens of thousands of people from all over the country.
"This is the highlight of our year," said Janet Murray, an Oak Island resident.
They start lining the city's streets early in the morning.
"We enjoyed it that first year and we just wanted to keep coming back," said Robbie Smith, a Southport resident.
"It's something that I've never seen before but only in Southport, they have such a patriotic spirit," said Marianne Long, a business owner.
And this year, that spirit is being caught on camera for possibly the whole world to see.
Two movie crews were out capturing the sights and sounds of the parade.
The clips could end up in the movie "Safe Haven," an adaptation of the Nicholas Sparks novel, or in the HBO TV movie "Mary and Martha," starring Hilary Swank.
"It's fantastic, some one told me they saw celebrities in the Food Lion over in Oak Island," said Murray.
Movie makers directed business owners along the parade route to go all out when decorating.
"I'm very excited, I hope the use part of the outside of Bullfrog," said Long.
"I love this time of year, it's my favorite time so I always go all out but I did do a little bit more because of the movies, it's fun and exciting," said Katie Rivenbark, also a business owner.
On top of that, five of the floats in the parade won a contest that could also win them a spot on the big screen.
Even with all of the activities, many never lost sight of why they're celebrating.
"This is mainly about honoring our service men, celebrating America, that's what 4th of July is all about," said Long.
If you want to see if our state's 4th of July celebration made the cut, "Safe Haven" is expected to be released in February 2013.
A release date for "Mary and Martha" has not yet been announced.

Located at the hub of three major roads, a CSX railroad track and two rivers, Crestview, Fla., has earned its name as Hub City. Since its incorporation in 1916, residents have worked hard to help the city grow and, in recent years, redevelop Crestview's downtown. This bustling town of 21,300 as reported by the U.C. Census Bureau holds a lower-than-average cost of living at 89 percent, according to City-Data. Since the median household income is higher than the Florida average, Crestview apartments for rent are delightfully affordable.
Crestview lies next to the Blackwater River State Forest, 50 miles east of Pensacola and 30 miles inland from the Gulf of Mexico's clear waters. A tradition and history of Native American, French, Spanish and English culture stamped by settlers from the Old Spanish Trail can be found in this city. Since redevelopment of the city began in 1997, vendors and store owners have restored its commercial district. In addition to local businesses, many residents of Crestview apartments work for top employers in Okaloosa County like L3 Communications, InDyne, Inc., Lockheed Martin, DRS Technologies and Fort Walton Beach Medical Center. However, most residents don't mind a commute, as the scenery is rather nice on the average 27 minute commute, no matter which direction work is.
With so many beautiful natural areas in the vicinity, it makes sense that Crestview is rather car-dependent, so potential residents may want to invest in a solid car before moving here.
Residents of Crestview have the luxury of choosing to enjoy the peacefulness of a forest, the sounds of the waves at the beach or both. Because the Gulf of Mexico is only 30 miles away, residents can take in a breath of fresh air during a morning visit to the forest and soak up the sun during an afternoon trip to the coast. For residents in need of a shopping trip or adventure in the city, Pensacola is just an hour drive away. If you feel like staying home, you can visit the War Memorial or indulge yourself in the history behind the Old Spanish Trail.

Screenshot of Xfce 4.10 with panel, Settings window, default file manager and Xfce theme.
|Stable release
|4.10 / 28 April 2012
|Development status
|Written in
|Desktop environment
|GNU General Public License, GNU Lesser General Public License and BSD License
Xfce (pronounced as four individual letters[2]) is a free software desktop environment for Unix and Unix-like platforms, such as Linux, Solaris, and BSD. It aims to be fast and lightweight, while still being visually appealing and easy to use. It consists of separately packaged components that together provide the full functionality of the desktop environment, but can be selected in subsets to suit user needs and preference.
Like GNOME 2, Xfce is based on the GTK+ 2 toolkit. It uses the Xfwm window manager, described below. Its configuration is entirely mouse-driven, with the configuration files hidden from the casual user.[3] Xfce does not feature any desktop animations.
It is possible to run Xfce in 40 MB of memory using Alpine Linux.[4]
Olivier Fourdan started the project in 1996.[5] The name "Xfce" originally stood for "XForms Common Environment", but since that time Xfce has been rewritten twice and no longer uses the XForms toolkit. The name survived, but it is no longer capitalized as "XFCE", but rather as "Xfce". The developers' current stance is that the initialism no longer stands for anything specific. It has been nicknamed "Cholesterol Free Desktop Environment",[6][7] even in some of its man pages.[8]
Early versions[edit]
Xfce began as a simple project created with XForms, meant to be a free Linux clone of CDE. Fourdan released the program, a simple panel, to ibiblio (then "SunSITE").[9]
Fourdan continued developing the project, and in 1998, Xfce 2 was released with the first version of Xfce's window manager, Xfwm. He requested to have the project included in Red Hat Linux, but was refused because the project was based on XForms. Red Hat only accepted software that was open source and released under either a GPL compatible or BSD compatible license, but, at the time, XForms was closed source and free only for personal use.[9] For the same reason, Xfce was not in Debian before version 3. Xfce 2 was only distributed in Debian's contrib component.[10]
In March 1999 Fourdan began a complete rewrite of the project based on GTK+, a non-proprietary toolkit whose popularity was increasing. The result was Xfce 3.0, which was licensed under the GNU GPL. Along with being based completely on free software, the project gained GTK+'s drag-and-drop support, native language support, and improved configurability. Xfce was uploaded to SourceForge.net in February 2001, starting with version 3.8.1.[11]
Modern Xfce[edit]
In version 4.0.0, released 25 September 2003, Xfce was upgraded to use the GTK+ 2 libraries.[12] Changes in 4.2.0 included a compositing manager for Xfwm which added built-in support for transparency and drop shadows, as well as a new default SVG icon set.[13] In January 2007, Xfce 4.4.0 was released. This included the Thunar file manager, a replacement for Xffm. Support for desktop icons was added. Also, various improvements were made to the panel to prevent buggy plugins from crashing the whole panel.[14] In February 2009 Xfce 4.6.0 was released. This version had a new configuration backend, a new settings manager and a new sound mixer, as well as several significant improvements to the session manager and the rest of Xfce's core components.[15]
In January 2011, Xfce 4.8.0 was released. This version included changes such as the replacement of ThunarVFS and HAL with GIO, udev, ConsoleKit and PolicyKit, and new utilities for browsing remote network shares using several protocols including SFTP, SMB, and FTP. Window clutter was reduced by merging all file progress dialog boxes into a single dialog. The panel application was also rewritten for better positioning, transparency, item and launcher management. 4.8 also introduced a new menu plugin to view directories. The 4.8 plugin framework remains compatible with 4.6 plugins. The display configuration dialog in 4.8 supports RandR 1.2, detecting screens automatically and allowing users to pick their preferred display resolution, refresh rate and display rotation. Screens can be configured to either work in clone mode or being placed next to each other. Keyboard selection has become easier and more user-friendly. Also, the manual settings editor has been updated to be more functional.[16]
The 4.8 development cycle was the first to use the new release strategy formed after the "Xfce Release and Development Model" developed at the Ubuntu Desktop Summit in May 2009. A new web application was employed to make release management easier, and a dedicated Transifex server was set up for Xfce translators.[17] The project's server and mirroring infrastructure was also upgraded, partly to cope with anticipated demand following the release announcement for 4.8.
Xfce 4.10, released 28 April 2012, introduced a vertical display mode for the panel and moved much of the documentation to an online wiki. The main focus of this release was on improving the user experience.[18]
Software components[edit]
Xfce has forked only a couple of the GNOME Core Applications and written most from scratch. Applications developed by the Xfce team are based on GTK+ and Clutter and self developed Xfce libraries.
Xfce provides a development framework which contains the following components:
- exo, an application library for the Xfce desktop environment
- garcon, a Freedesktop.org compliant menu library
- libxfce4ui, a widgets library for the Xfce desktop environment
- libxfce4util, an extension library for Xfce
Other than Xfce itself, there are third-party programs which use the Xfce libraries, such as the Xfce Terminal (xfce4-terminal, former Terminal). One of the services provided to applications by the framework is a red banner across the top of the window when the application is running with root privileges warning the user that they could damage system files.
Starting with version 4.2, Xfwm integrates its own compositing manager.[19]
Thunar is the default file manager for Xfce, replacing Xffm. It resembles GNOME's Nautilus and is designed for speed and a low memory footprint[20] as well as being highly customizable through plugins. Xfce also has a lightweight archive manager called Xarchiver, but this is not part of the core Xfce 4.4.0.[21] More recently, Squeeze has been started as an archive manager designed to integrate better into the Xfce desktop, though no further updates have been released since 24 February 2008,[22] the development git branch for both squeeze and xarchiver are more up to date and feature rich than the last stable release.
Starting with version 4.4, Xfcalendar was renamed to Orage (French for "thunderstorm") and several features were added. Orage has alarms and uses the iCalendar format, making it compatible with many other calendar applications. It also includes a panel clock plugin and an international clock application capable of simultaneously showing clocks from several different time zones.
Leafpad is the default text editor for Xfce in many Linux distributions, including Xubuntu.[23] At one point Xubuntu and some other Xfce-based distributions switched to a fork of Leafpad called Mousepad, developed by Erik Harrison and Nick Schermer to provide printing support and Xfce integration, [24] but Leafpad gained printing support in version 0.8.11.[25]
Parole is a media player that is based on the GStreamer framework. It is developed by Ali Abdallah and is part of the Xfce Goodies.[26] It originally was only playlist based, but now includes an option to replace the entire playlist when opening a file for playing.[27]
Xfmedia is a xine-based media player for the Xfce desktop environment. It is unmaintained since November 2006 at version 0.9.2.
A CD/DVD burning program.
Products and distributions using Xfce[edit]
Xfce is included as one of the graphical user interfaces on the Pandora handheld gaming system.
It is the default desktop in the following Linux distributions:
- Emmabuntüs
- Linux Lite
- MakuluLinux
- Manjaro Linux
- Mythbuntu
- Salix OS
- SalineOS
- SolydX
- Tuxtrans
- UberStudent
- Xubuntu
- Ubuntu Studio
It is also included as a standard desktop option in many other distributions, including Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Korora, Linux Mint and Mageia. That means a stable version of Xfce is kept in these distributions' repositories and user can easily install it from the package manager.

2014 Acura MDX, RDX Earn Five-Star Crash Ratings
By Matt Schmitz
As of today, Acura added two of its luxury nameplates to the coveted ranks of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's five-star safety award recipients. The all-new 2014 MDX SUV and the 2014 RDX crossover both received five-star overall scores in NHTSA's safety assessments, including individual five-star ratings in frontal and side-impact tests, and four stars for rollover resistance.
That's an improvement for the MDX, whose 2013 version scored four stars overall, with individual fours in frontal and rollover tests, and a five in side-impact tests. NHTSA did not rate the RDX for the 2013 model year.
