I had high hopes for this because all of the great reviews and first impressions on this. I wanted to love it but it just didn't work for me. Pros: it is very creamy, dries fast, and it is very pigmented (I bought black). Cons: after an hour the eyeliner cracks and flakes off, my eyelids are oily so it smudges, doesn't last long. I had no use for it anymore and didn't want to throw it away so i sometimes dip a tiny bit with my angles brush and with a light hand, line the bottom of my eyebrows then use a eyebrow brush to blend it. Makes my brows nice and defined.

Woah maybe I got duds. I'm reading all of these reviews, and it seems like everyone is saying that theirs was too creamy. Mine was just the opposite. When I got it, it was so dried out that the entire product came out in one piece. I emailed ELF, and the sent me another. SAME THING.
Not wanting to waste it, and willing to pull some magical DIY experiment, I mashed it up into crumbly bits (it was that dry, yes). Then added eyedrops. Then microwaved it. It was kind of workable. I tried adding a little bit of vaseline (which I realize now is a big no-no, but I was in experiment mode). It worked, but then I had the problem everyone is describing here. It wouldn't stay put. So I had to set it with primer underneath and eyeshadow on top.
I was super bummed but the plum purple is a lovely deep purple, but dang... too. much. work.

I didn't expect much from a "cheap" brand but I decided to give this liner a try. I works well enough on my lid.. I tried it with MAC painterly paint pot and it stays on day. for girls on a budget or want to sqeeze a nickel I would say try this. I use it regulary
I've used this liner and it smears and makes eyes look like panda eyes, smears on bottom too after 30 min...no likey

The best cream eyeliner of all time. And for $3? Can't get any better than that
I love how creamy this is and rich in color but it dries fast and flakes easily :(
Ive had the ELF cream eyeliner in the color Black for about two weeks now and I really like it . it glides on to my eyes really soft . stays on for a long time and doesn't really bother my eyes or anything like some eyeliner . Great price and the pigment is really good too :)

I bought this last year and was in LOVE with this eye liner. I thought I found my replacement for my HG Mac Gel liner in black track. I play sports and tried diving into water with it on and it stands up well as long as you don't purposely rub it off.
HOWEVER, I recently tried the other half which I saved and depotted into a Mac gel liner jar to keep it from drying out and that`s when it sucks. The stored gel liner was way too creamy. It smudges in my crease and it travels even with urban decay primer potion and eye shadow underneath. Even after swatching on my hand and letting it sit for a minute, it still smudges after rubbing. I think the bottom layer of the cream liner that I stored is more moist and therefore takes a lot longer to dry. This eyeliner would work best if it's kept in a packaging that allows it to dry out a bit so that it won't smudge so quickly when used.
TLDR/Verdict: If you have eye lids that fold over where you place your eye liner eg. hooded lids it would likely smudge because it takes a longer time to dry completely. If your lids don't touch your liner then this will be great. But just to say I don't have hooded lids and it smudges along the wings and on the crease. The eye liner works best as it dries up a little and not as moist. I got it to stay on all day by using a primer, powder on top plus a liquid on top to seal it.
I bought this eyeliner because I have tried many of elf's products and loved them, but I was disappointed with this liner. Yes, it was dark and went on smooth, but it didn't stay put at all. It took forever to dry, and almost immediately smudged when I blinked. It was creamy, a little too creamy. I returned it because even though it was only $3, it wasn't even worth keeping.
This is a great eyeliner for 3 bucks. I put E.L.F eyeshadow primer on before any eyeliner since I have oily skin and this stays put. I've used top brands before and this definitely compares.

On the show, once the contestant made their choice, Monty Hall (the host) opened one of the other doors, revealing one of the worthless prizes. He would then open the contestant's chosen door to reveal whether they picked correctly. The Monty Hall problem asks, what if the contestant were allowed to change her door choice after she saw the worthless prize? Would it be to her advantage to switch doors? In other words, if the contestant guesses that the new car lay behind door #1, and Monty opened door #2 to reveal a goat, is the new car more likely to be behind door #1, or door #3?
At this point, the imperfect wad of meat called the "brain" fires up it neurons, and usually informs its owner that revealing the contents of one of the other doors simply changed the contestant's odds from one-in-three to fifty-fifty. But that isn't the case. It has been mathematically proven that if the contestant were allowed to switch her door to #3 after seeing the goat behind #2, she'd be twice as likely to win.
How can this be? It isn't intuitive, but it's true. Great mathematicians have puzzled over this, as well as great scientists at Los Alamos and professors at MIT.
The best way to look at it is to imagine that when the contestant selects a door, she divides the doors into two sets: A) The doors she DID select, and B) the doors she did NOT select. At this point, each individual door has a one-in-three chance of being the winning door, but the two sets have differing odds... Set A has a one-in-three chance of containing the new car, but Set B, having twice as many doors in it, is twice as likely to contain the winner.
In explaining the effect, it helps to increase the scale of the question. Imagine that there are 100 doors to choose from instead of three. The contestant chooses a door, and then the host opens 98 other doors to show that they don't contain prizes. Which is more likely to hold the prize... the door she selected initially, or the one door left unopened from the 99 she didn't choose? The answer is much more obvious: the door she chose still has a one-in-a-hundred chance of being the winning door, where the other closed door has a 99/100 chance.
The problem is that the human brain is hard-wired to seek out patterns, discarding much of the non-patterned data. This system usually works very well in keeping unimportant information from overwhelming the mind, but occasionally too much information ends up on the cutting-room floor. There is another problem called the Gambler's Folly which also illustrates the mind's lackluster performance in guaging probability: Imagine that you flip an ordinary coin 99 times, and amazingly, it comes up heads every time. What are the odds that it will come up heads again on the 100th flip? Most people would say that it's a very unlikely possibility, but it turns out that the odds are exactly 50% (overlooking the negligible chance that the coin will land on its edge).
The reason we think otherwise is because our pattern-oriented brains see the 100-flip scenario as extremely rare, which it is... it has a one in 1,267,650,600,228,229,401,496,703,205,376 chance of happening. But if you sit down and write out any random sequence of heads and tails, it has the exact same odds of appearing as does 100 heads. The typical human brain just doesn't assign random sequences the same significance as clear patterns--such as 100 heads on a coin flip--so the importance of the pattern is artificially inflated.
The human brain is a great pattern recognition engine, but sometimes that causes it to overlook the subtleties of numbers.

(AP) Some spectacled strippers are looking to score some votes of their own, just for looking like Sarah Palin. A Sin City strip club says it plans to host a lookalike contest in honor of the GOP vice presidential nominee, and is bringing in women from gentlemen's clubs all over the country to compete.
They'll be judged by club guests on how they resemble Palin while wearing a swimsuit and how well they debate, according to news release.
A vote will determine the winner. The prize? A $10,000 package including a trip to Washington for Inauguration Day in January.
Officials for Club Paradise Men's Club in Las Vegas say they're holding the contest because Palin competed as a beauty queen years ago and is widely impersonated today.
Palin came in second at the 1984 Miss Alaska pageant, taking home the Miss Congeniality award.

Washington (AP) -- Scientists have long been debating whether there's water on Mars. Those who think there is have new evidence to back up their beliefs.
Images from a camera on a NASA orbiter show alternating layers of dark- and light-toned rock. Within are a series of fractures, surrounded by what researchers call "halos" of light-toned bedrock. Those halos are believed to indicate where fluids, probably water, passed through the bedrock.
This latest finding comes two months after images from the Mars Global Surveyor showed changes in craters. That provides the strongest evidence so far that water moved through them.

I will easily go through 3L of water hiking for five hours during the summer. I always stole my buddy's 3L Platypus and he made me buy my own. It's also is great for filling up and utilizing for practice weight while day hiking in prep for a trip. FYI: The clip isn't super reliable, but frankly, I don't use it all that much.
Use this bladder in addition to my camelbak bladder. Fits into my pack and I really like the clip located on the hose so I can attach to my shoulder strap. There was no "plastic" taste and the bladder is quite durable. Only complaint is the lack of lid or covering over the drinking nipple; you need to be careful when sitting your pack down so as to keep nipple clean and avoid nipple from getting squashed.
We bought the 2L for my wife. It fit's her pack awesome and functions quite well while in use. She gave it a big thumbs up! The quality of the materials on this platy is on par for what I'd expect from a quality water bladder. Keep in mind this is about as basic as you can get. One small threaded opening that the hose attaches to and a simple bite valve. She's said there's no funky taste to the water and so far no leaks!
I mainly use the Camlbak 70oz For my daily hiking needs. I bought this blatter because it was one of three that can go into the zippered bladder sleeve on the Arc'teryx Altra 65 pack. The main drawback to this bladder is that it has a very small opening for filling. They are made of a of very durable plastic that has not given me any problems with punctures and seems highly resistant to them. I prefer the eCamlbak Big Bite mouthpiece and after talking to the platypus rep I tried to change out the mouthpiece on the hose. In spite of what I was told by the rep these mouthpieces are not interchangeable whatsoever.

Atheism and Ethnicity.
November 19, 2010 § Leave a comment
The observation that the atheist communities are not as welcoming as they could be to visible minorities crops up pretty regularly, this being a recent example. Ian Cromwell, as usual, has a very lucid perspective on the subject (among others), and he also has the benefit of experience in this particular area. I really only have two thoughts on the matter but as usual I can't help but put them into about six hundred and fifty words. Bear with me.
First, I'm a bit suspicious of the way this accusation is deployed by religionists. This refers mostly to conversations I've had in person; a cursory google reveals that the bulk of discussion about this issue actually comes from atheist sources. This includes the original blog Ian responded too by the way. But in face-to-face interactions the fact that the atheist and skeptic movements have so many white spokespersons is regularly brought up as a pointed retort to something I say– a way of undermining the legitimacy of the atheist movement. I think this is backwards. This quote shows why:
"My own mother is a Christian Minister. My entire family, like most American families, are very devout believers. They express their beliefs freely and unselfconsciously because they enjoy the privilege of being a member of a major majority in America. I, on the other hand, must often keep my own beliefs to myself for fear of offending anyone or alienating myself any further from the family I love. This is a mere microcosm of what the Black atheists must face in regards to his entire culture."
So the religious fight us tooth and nail to prevent their followers from leaving, then gleefully point to their own success as evidence that we are if not racist, then at least horrible jerks.
Demographic imbalance alone does not indicate that the atheist movement is hostile or uncaring toward minorities; the difference in community attitudes is such that I'd expect asymmetry like this if the internal treatment of white people and visible minorities was identical in every respect (and Shaha is right: It isn't).
This is not to say that we're off the hook. As the people interested in actually fixing the problem, we have little choice but to act. Given that the religious establishment pushes harder on minority groups, it follows that we need to step up our game in terms of pushing back. As the links above show, we're having the discussion and that's a good sign.
As I see it, we need two things in order to compensate for the current state of affairs. The first is an increased focus on making the atheist movement a safe place to come out into at an earlier stage. Atheist communities are, on average, wonderful places to be if you are outspoken, thick-skinned, and confident in your ability to think and discuss. But if you're still on the fence or even close to it they can seem much less appealing. This is easily fixable and I think this particular problem is likely to get better as the movement matures.
The second source of change needs to come from within: We need more atheist individuals with religious backgrounds (visible minority or not) to step up as activists and show that embracing reason is not inconsistent with retaining the positive aspects of one's cultural heritage. I have a lot to say about that but I'll save that for now.
I'm glad that we're having this discussion now– I look forward to seeing how quickly we can progress in this area. The important point for now is that while there is without a doubt a very real demographic imbalance within atheist communities, that imbalance is not itself an indictment of our movement. Some use it as such; they should be answered. And the best answer is a better community for all of us.

While we freeze, California plays hockey in the sun
|A hockey rink is ready at Dodger Stadium for the upcoming 2014 NHL Stadium Series hockey game in Los Angeles, seen Wednesday, Jan. 22, 2014. The Los Angeles Kings and Anaheim Ducks will play outdoors at Dodger Stadium Saturday, Jan. 25th. (AP Photo/Nick Ut)
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Dan Craig and his crew have been at Dodger Stadium from dusk to dawn every night for the past week, patiently building a sheet of NHL-quality ice in the middle of the iconic baseball field.
They're just about ready to drop the puck in sunny Southern California.
The ice is solid, the fans have bought nearly every ticket, and the two local teams are eager for their historic showdown under the lights and stars. Only a few tweaks remain before the Los Angeles Kings face the Anaheim Ducks on Saturday in the NHL's first official outdoor game in a warm-weather climate.
"It's hard not to get excited about it now that it's almost here," Anaheim captain Ryan Getzlaf said. "It seems like everybody is talking about it."
While the NHL raised plenty of eyebrows with the announcement of outdoor hockey in one of the nation's hottest places, Craig has always been confident that this unorthodox game wouldn't turn into a swim meet.
The NHL's ice specialist is working a vicious schedule this winter with preparations for six outdoor games, but he's most excited about the chance to do the improbable in Chavez Ravine.
"This is the challenge that everybody who works with me wanted to try," Craig said. "The crew that's in New York (for two upcoming games at Yankee Stadium) doesn't want to be in New York. They want to be here."
Even with daytime temperatures in the 80s and abnormal humidity in Los Angeles over the past week, Craig is
See LA, Page 9B
quietly confident about the ice sheet created by his meticulous crew and the huge refrigeration unit in the 53-foot truck beyond center field.
They work at night, building and grooming more than 10,000 gallons of water into a 1¾-inch sheet that stays cool under a heat-reflecting blanket during the day. The ice is out of the sun's reach by roughly 4 p.m. each day, and that's when Craig's crew goes to work.
"We are very patient with what we do," Craig said. "Our guys aren't getting a whole lot of sleep. I know I won't be getting a whole lot of sleep."
Craig said he could have made NHL-quality ice just about anywhere in North America for several years now, but the league didn't expand its outdoor exploits to a warm-weather city until expanding its series of stadium games this winter.
Glycol coolant is constantly circulated from the truck and below the rink, keeping the ice temperature around 22 degrees. The outdoor temperature is likely to be in the high 50s at game time on Saturday night, which would be plenty cold enough for Craig's purposes.
"It's a hard concept for anybody that's not in the field to understand," Craig said. "I've got two very efficient systems that we're marrying together."
Craig and Kings executive Luc Robitaille skated on the ice Wednesday, with Robitaille pronouncing it ready to go. The Kings and Ducks will hold separate practices at Dodger Stadium on Friday to get used to the rink's peculiarities.
The boards, benches and glass were trucked into Dodger Stadium from the Winter Classic at Ann Arbor's Michigan Stadium, although they won't need the heaters. The NHL is also embracing the unusual setting with a variety of amusements in the Dodger Stadium bowl — everything from a beach volleyball court and a pond to two performance stages.
The game will be the NHL's first outdoor venture west of Alberta, but it's not the first attempt at Southwest outdoor hockey. Robitaille and the Kings played an exhibition against the New York Rangers in Las Vegas in 1991, and everything went fairly well — except for the swarm of grasshoppers that jumped onto the ice.
"These guys know what they're doing, and the ice is going to be great," Robitaille said. "This is an incredible opportunity for these two teams to bring hockey to a new level in Southern California."

Leah Remini Aims Another Dart at the Church of Scientology
Leah Remini's LAPD missing-person report may have been quickly dissipated. But the former Scientologist and current Dancing with the Stars contestant still has a lot of fight left in her.
Per some eagle-eyed monitoring of the Comal County, Texas District Court docket by blogger Tony Ortega, Remini has agreed to provide a deposition later this month in connection with a harassment lawsuit brought against the Church and leader David Miscavige by Monique Rathbun. The deposition is scheduled to be taken October 15 in Los Angeles. From Ortega's post:
While watching the docket in Monique's lawsuit, we noticed today a reference to a transaction fee for a subpoena that listed Remini's name. We then called [her attorney Ray] Jeffrey, who confirmed that he had talked to the actress and that she had agreed to give the deposition — which is happening one day after Jeffrey is scheduled to depose former Scientology spokesman Tommy Davis in Austin.

The impact of the Heartbleed vulnerability in OpenSSL has been much discussed. How does it affect XNAT users and administrators? Fortunately, our risk exposure is extremely narrow. Lead XNAT developer Rick Herrick wrote a quick note on the Water Cooler discussion page of our developer wiki.
The Heartbleed exploit does not affect XNAT directly! XNAT does not use OpenSSL internally or in the application at all.
This is not to say that it may not affect your XNAT installation. You are at some risk if you use one of the exploitable versions of OpenSSL to provide an HTTPS connection at your Tomcat or HTTP proxy (e.g. Apache HTTPD, nginx). It would be possible for an intruder to open the encrypted connection between a user's browser and the server. Once that is available, the intruder could set the user's login credentials in the HTTP transaction as the user logs in. They would also be able to monitor the contents of that traffic, potentially exposing PHI or other identifying information from the XNAT installation.

FOR MAY'S INSTALLMENT in our series of flower arrangements inspired by art, I found myself thinking of French painter Pierre Bonnard (1867-1947). His work, radiant but dreamy and slightly moody, seemed right for this transitional month. In the Northeast, where I live, the garden is coming alive, with fruit-tree blooms exploding and leaves unfolding in fresh lime-green against clear blue skies—a huge relief when memories of a long winter are still lingering. I found the ideal May palette in Bonnard's 1922 painting "The Banks of the Seine," an atypically simple composition that is full of newly born greens (the trees and grass) and deep periwinkle shades of blue (the water and sky).
The Inspiration
Pierre Bonard's 'The Banks of the Seine' served as the inspiration for Lindsey Taylor's arrangement. Bridgeman-Giraudon / Art Resource, NY / © Artres
The Arrangement
BONNARD IN BLOOM | The fresh foliage in 'The Banks of the Seine' is represented by early-season flowers that are still green, while a dirt-brown vase gives the airy bouquet a terrestrial grounding. Ngoc Minh Ngo for The Wall Street Journal
From left: Rörstrand Spherical Ceramic Vase by Carl-Harry Stalhane, $2,400, and Gustavsberg Studio Hand-Thrown Ceramic Vase by Brendt Friberg, $3,600, Wyeth Home, 212-243-3661; Pale Blue Vase and Green Bottle, stylist's own.
To interpret the painting, I started with a brown earthenware vessel that might easily have come from a French country farmhouse. Its rustic vibe and bulbous shape ground the bouquet and its opacity hides distracting stems. For the arrangement itself, I wanted a full, loose, painterly look. I started with the early chartreuse flowers of snowball viburnum and bupleurum, filling the vessel almost entirely with their blousy forms. I left room to tuck in three tall stems of a favorite bulb, Persian fritillary Ivory Bells, whose chime-like flowers mature to white but are still a soft green at this time of year. Pushing back the greens a bit, I made room in the lower part of the arrangement for hits of the saturated blue of fragrant hyacinth and the lighter blue of the smaller grape hyacinth to reflect the tonal shifts in color of the sky and water in this idyllic scene.
The bouquet's colors and fragrance have the effect I was hoping for—budding, unforced, pastoral—bringing a little of Mr. Bonnard's world into my home.
—Lindsey Taylor

Nikon Digital Camera Prices
It's safe to say that Nikon has the leading edge on digital cameras. This is because they have been created cameras since the dawn of photography. Below is a large list of several Nikon digital camera prices, with pictures and where you can get it for the best price.
Nikon COOLPIX L120 As Low As – $228 Normally – $279
This is a 14.1 megapixel Nikon Camera. It is very affordable but will also take those high quality pictures that give you the feeling as if you are currently there when looking at the photos.
The pictures that you take with this camera can be blown up to extraordinary sizes, so you can cherish those big moments with your family on a large picture.
With the 5-way VR Image stabilization system, you can take still pictures when you are feeling jittery. Your photos will be as clear as if you were there.
The 3″ LCD screen allows you to view your photos before you actually take them and review them before you transfer them to your computer, so you know your photo looks right before you waste any time reviewing them on your computer.
For more information and reviews on the Nikon Coolpix L20
Nikon D3000 10.2MP As Low As – $450 Normally – ~$550
The Nikon D3000 10.2 MP is an excellent camera for all types of photographers. It has a large 3.0-in LCD display with brightness adjustment. It is one of the most user friendly cameras that I have ever used.
"I've been doing photography for over 30 years and have tried all types of cameras"
It has 3 feet per second shooting that is good for action shots, especially if you are into sport photography. This camera has an ISO speed from 100 to 1600 so that you can take pictures in bright sunlight or low light and action shots.
You can take approximately 550 shots on one battery charge of the rechargeable Li-ion battery. With the pop up flash you don't have to carry a lot of extras and the lightweight, compact body with a soft rounded form makes it a comfortable camera to hold.
It has an extensive palette of Retouch Menus that can modify images. That is one feature that can make your photos look more professional. It has a Scene Recognition System that improves auto focus, auto exposure, and auto white balance performance.
The auto focus sensor module features 11 AF points to provide fast and precise auto-focus. If you want to use the auto focus this is one camera that has one of the best for the price. You can spend 10 times the price and still get the same quality photos.
If I was going to buy a budget price cameras to replace mine this is the one I would get. It has all the amenities that you would need to get in an SLR camera.
The Nikon D3000 10.2MP is a wonderful camera for the beginner as well as the advanced photographer. With the interchangeable lenses you can get close ups of flowers and places from far away with a telephoto lens. The New Guide Mode provides in-camera assistance for making camera settings work and look like professional shots.
I think that this camera would give anyone the love of photography that it deserves. Photos are a way of capturing history and it is preserved forever on paper or computer. With a digital camera you can forget about going to the photo store to have your pictures developed and print them right at home. The Nikon D3000 10.2 MP is really one of the best that you can get for the price. In fact, it is one of the best Nikon digital camera prices for someone who may want to be a professional but can't afford the most expensive one. This camera is for all levels of experience.
Nikon D300s 12MP CMOS DSLR As Low As – $1,300 Normally – ~$1,999
The Nikon D300 is a camera that will rock your world especially if you are a professional or just a picture lover. Whether used for natural photos or for setting up photos, this camera has features that will make your life easy and your pictures amazing. It is truly a marvel designed by Nikon. It is not only great for pictures but it is easy to use all of its features even if you do not have picture taking experience.
The first feature you must pay attention to is the 12.3 MP DX-format CMOS Image Sensor; it is designed to provide you with amazingly clear pictures and low background noise videos without any complication and little adjustment. The resolution in these pictures is unbelievable; you will be able to see details on a humming bird's tail on a tree far from where you are standing. This is accomplished by a combination of factors including a 920k-dot LCD monitor which in combination with a 51 area AF system and Nikon's 1005 pixel RGB exposure sensor allow for better and clearer pictures.
It is possible to shoot up to seven frames per second which gives you great possibilities and amazing pictures when you are trying to picture moving objects, animals or people. A great example of this is pictures taken during football games or other sporting events, these clear perfectly resolute pictures are taken with cameras with a continuous picture taking ability. Another example is running animals or racing motorcycles or cars, all these need great exposure to be taken perfectly, the Nikon D300 is designed to help you with these specific pictures.
The D-Movie HD Video allows you to make 720p, twenty frames per second movie clips for your delight and collection. The camera has audio capability and is also equipped with ultimate technology noise filters and microphones which render an excellent quality final product. Clear flowing pictures and video that will be the envy of your friends especially when you manage to capture your favorite rock star on it.
Among the other many features this camera has is another which is special, Nikon's Active-D Lighting. This feature is especially important when you are taking pictures of scenery and areas where there is a lot of shadows and changes in light. The system will filter and optimize details by highlighting shadows and darkened places adding better dimension and color to the final product.
This is a camera which may be operated by an expert or by a newbie; it practically talks and corrects the pictures on its own. It is possible to exchange the lenses on it when fish eyes and telescopic lenses are necessary. These will only enhance the camera's own characteristics.
Nikon D3100 14.2MP As Low As – $599 Normally – $649
Recently Nikon released the D3100, the newest entry level that boasts the capabilities of recording in full 1080p high definition. The Nikon D3100 is built with a 3 inch LCD screen for movie recording. Besides movie recording, the Nikon D3100 can be used for live view recording, which means you can use it for just about any purpose! This Nikon sports a number of small revisions which make this camera great for the new professional or amateur photographer or director.
What are the dimensions like on the Nikon D3100? The dimensions are very close to any other model of its class, measuring out at 7″x13″x6″, and weighing in at just about three and a half pounds. This camera is versatile, I find it very easy to tote around with me when I go somewhere. The dimensions alone don't really show how amazing this camera really is.
What about the display and resolution pixels? The D3100 comes with an easy to view 3 inch display. This camera has extremely great resolution. Clocking in at 14 megapixels, the Nikon D3100 can shoot high definition. With a 14 megapixel resolution, I was able to capture full 1080p high definition video. The resolution of this camera is really great.
The Nikon D3100 is easy to use. The D3100 comes with Guide Motion. Guide Motion was created by Nikon so you can take better pictures. Guide Motion is very easy to use. I did run into a little problem, but the included helpful assistant in Guide Motion was more than enough to solve my issue. Guide Motion is a really cool feature on this camera.
The shutter is really fast on the Nikon D3100. In fact, Nikon has named the fast shutter Split Second Response. Split Second Response takes all the frustration out of taking pictures. It's really annoying with you go to click for a snap shot, and then the camera doesn't take a picture for a couple of seconds. Split Second Response really does work, in fact it was one of the reasons I decided to go with the D3100 in the first place.
Two features worth mentioning are Expeed 2 and Scene Recognition. Expeed 2 is a technique Nikon uses to process each picture. Expeed 2 ensures beautiful images, top resolution quality, and full vivid color with lightning fast speed. Scene Recognition by Nikon is another great technology which I really loved because it was truthfully able to focus automatically according to each scene. Overall I recommend trying the Nikon D3100.
Nikon D40 6.1MP DSLR As Low As – $500 Normally – $619
The Nikon D40 6.1 MP DSLR is a compact and user-friendly camera that produces impressively professional results with every shot. Typically digital SLR cameras are bulky and complicated- not the best option for taking along on family vacations or for hobby photography. The D40 is designed to make capturing clear and beautiful pictures as easy as possible. The controls on the camera have been streamlined and simplified, so you aren't dealing with rows of buttons whose functions are mysterious. The LCD display screen is 2.5 inches for easy viewing and the display controls are intuitively arranged and labeled to help you set up a shot and review it once it is captured. The entire camera only weighs 16 ounces so it fits perfectly in a purse or backpack.
The Nikon D40 DSLR may be simple and easy-to-use but that doesn't mean it isn't loaded up with all the functions and features that create quality photographs. With 6.1 megapixels, every picture is crystal clear and sharply detailed, even when blown up to 16×20 photographs or larger. The fast speed shutter response snaps photos instantly, recording an action shot that isn't blurry or delayed. This camera can snap 2.5 frames a second, each one crystal clear and brilliant. The in-camera editing options allows you to adjust photos just moments after they've been recorded. Editing options include trimming, red-eye correction, black and white, color balance, and others. The D40 has a three-area focus bringing even greater clarity and depth to portraits, landscapes, action, and many other kinds of photographs.
The D40 has a Nikon-created feature called 3D Color Matrix Metering. This feature assesses each individual shot as it is being set up, for its brightness, contrast, shadows, highlights, and distance. It then evaluates the shot's characteristics as compared to a database of 30,000 actual photographs. The camera uses this information to determine the best exposure for each section of the shot. And all this happens as your finger comes up to the button to snap a picture. The D40 is an incredibly well-designed piece of equipment and yet it feels perfectly effortless for anyone to pick up and use. You could almost say the pictures take themselves. The camera does all the work and you just get to enjoy the moment.
Nikon D7000 16.2MP DX-Format As Low As – $1,400 Normally – ~1,700
The contestants are lining up at the starting gate. The officials call the ready. Ready, Set, Go!! All of the gates open, but wait, it almost looks like slow motion! Only one contestant races from the gate, the others are slowly moving, some faster than others, but all seem like they're in a slow motion dream. The Nikon D7000 16.2MP DX-Format SLR camera has left the pack behind in a cloud of dust!
Out of the gate, there is none better than the Nikon D7000 16.2MP DX-Format CMOS Digital SLR with 3.0-Inch LCD and 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6 AF-S DX VR ED Nikkor Lens. With professional benefits like High Resolution 16.2 MP DX-format CMOS sensor, High Speed 6 frames per second continuous shooting up to 100 shots, Breathtaking Full 1080p HD Movies with Full Time Auto-focus, Dynamic ISO range from 100 to 6400, and Ground-breaking 2,016-pixel RGB (3D Color Matrix) exposure sensor.
Large prints or closely cropped images, Resolution on the D7000 is spectacular. With 16.2 effective megapixels, this camera is engineered to use sharp NIKKOR lenses to gather more quality light. Combined with 14-bit A/D conversion (12-bit selectable), this make the D7000 produce elegant images richer in tone and detail than previously possible in DX format.
Subtle tones are often difficult to distinguish in a photo, as is the ability to truly freeze an image. With the EXPEED 2 image processing engine, these issues are easy to overcome, because it can handle more tasks simultaneously with more speed and power than ever before. Even face recognition performance in Live View mode is further improved allowing you to concentrate on your project.
The improved pixel quality of the image sensor provides a wider ISO range from the DX-format, now ISO 100 to 6400 is standard in the D7000. With Nikon's famous noise reduction technology further upgraded, the D7000 delivers sharp images with minimal color noise.
Capture Full HD 1080p D-Movie with full-time auto-focus and manual exposure. Also, besides "auto" exposure mode, the manual exposure mode can be used to lock in the exposure value when shooting scenes that have varying contrast levels.
Incorporated in the D7000 is a built-in exposure-metering sensor with the largest pixel count to date for a DSLR camera. The scenes brightness is read by the 2,016-pixel RGB sensor much more accurately which optimizes exposure, auto-focus, white balance and i-TTL flash calculations. All in milliseconds prior to the exposure.
If you're editing photos, you must be interested in photography. The above cameras are the best in the industry for all budgets. These Nikon digital camera prices cannot be beat. They are all sold through Amazon at the best prices possible.

Michelle Ford, Creator of Silent Coach
Born in Detroit, Michelle grew up in the hot climate of Scottsdale, AZ. At the age of 3, she was already on her way to becoming very successful having won the Diaper Division Arizona State Roller Skating Championship. By the time she reached 7 years of age, Michelle began ice skating. Together, with her brother, Michelle took up freestyle and pairs. Even through tragedy, including her brother's death in a car crash when she was 9, plus her suffering a spinal cord injury from a fall that left her unable to skate between the ages of 11 to 13, Michelle persevered by becoming an ice dancer.
As a teenager, Michelle began ice dancing with her partner Glenn Parriott, becoming Junior NationalChampions. Eventually they split and Michelle
Michelle Ford
started skating coincidentally with another Glenn, Glenn Patterson. With Patterson, Michelle went on to become a skating success, travelling the world and representing the United States internationally. Together in Senior Dance, she and Glenn ranked Third in the Nation for several years competing in places like Moscow, China, and England. The pair was even alternates for the 1976 Olympic Team.
During this time, Michelle and Glenn performed their star studded dance numbers and after placing Third in the 1977 Senior Dance competition in the United States, Michelle and Glenn turned professional, travelling as principle skaters in the Ice Follies for two years. The professional world was vastly different from Michelle's home in
Scottsdale; being young and inexperienced she was thrown into a world of hotels and parties. During this time, Michelle and Glenn had their own highlighted dance numbers, skating also as the "heads" of Bette Lou and Ernie from Sesame Street. They loved every minute they had skating for Sesame Street and getting to act like they were 4 years old again to the tune of "Tea for Two."
Ultimately, Michelle moved on to what she saw herself becoming as a young child, an Ice Skating Coach. Now, Michelle loves her job with her attitude truly reflecting her own ideals and how her discipline, drive and dedication in combination with her own expectations of her students continue to shape the success she has.
Michelle's love for Ice Skating has been apparent throughout her 30 years of teaching in San Diego. Still to this day she enjoys her job and now has enhanced her life more by developing the new teaching device Silent Coach. With the Silent Coach, Michelle really hopes to make a difference by helping others perform better at their own sports.

|Half Baths
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 - 4 nights
OPENED 2013, The tropical Villa Sabai Jai in Thailand is unique because it succeeds in combining the natural features of the location with simple and luxury accommodation, high-end modern technology and a level of creative imagination that makes this an extraordinary villa. The villa is completely newly built, finished december 2012.
If you are 2 or 4 persons please contact us for price information.
The Villa occupies an exceptional position 35 meters above sea on the edge of a cape with panoramic views over the ocean, the nearby beaches, the surrounding islands and the Marine Park. The view is maximized by the practical layout and innovative design features. The villa is facing south and will treat you to both sunrises and sunsets. This is the perfect hideaway place for those seeking a relaxing retreat.
Sabai means "laid back", "easy going", "peaceful feeling". Sabai jai literally means "well heart", and this is the feeling you get when you visit this villa. This the Thai's use to express contentment, happiness or gratitude.
A winding road takes you to the entrance of the villa where you will continue across a lotus pond and into the heart of the property which is a wooden deck combining the different houses and the infinity pool in front of the buildings.
The free shaped pool is turquoise tiled and has overflow which makes it look like it´s part of the sea. Two large stairs in each end. A six person jacuzzi is a part of the pool and is placed in the middle facing the sea. On the side of the main house is an outdoor shower which can be used before and after swimming. Another lotus pond is forming the edge of the deck towards the east. On the deck you will find two sitting areas and sunchairs. To reach the outer deck and sala, which has a third sitting group, you have to cross a small bridge over the pool. From the sala, which also has rain and wind shelter, you have an exceptional view over the ocean, nearby islands and beaches. From the deck there is a private staircase down to the sea. You just enter the water and you are on the coral reef swimming around among beautiful fish. Two of the best beaches on the island, Tian Og and Sai Daeng, are situated on each side of the cape. You can swim, snorkel or walk to these nearby beaches for breakfast, lunch, dinner or maybe a drink.
For those who want to exercise we have a small gym with a barbell rack with adjustable bench, dumbells and a pull-up/leg raise equipment.
We can offer the following activities in the villa on request:
· SPA treatments on our own massage bed
· Restaurant Barracudas chef Ed Jones will come up and cook and serve you an "in villa dinner", which you choose from his menu
· Thai food can be delivered to the villa, lunch or dinner
. Teaching for diving certificate in our pool in association with ACE Marine
Please note that the Villa is not suitable for young children, since the house has no special security protection for children from the height of the Villa.
Due to that electricity is very expensive on the island and that some guests use more electricity than others, we have chosen to let 30 kWh/day be included in the rental price. If you consume more than this, we charge 32 THB/kWh. The explanation is that we have no electricity cable from the mainland, therefore the electricity is produced in local diesel gererators. Since we care about our island and the environment we hope that you will help us by not using more electricity than needed.
Instead of paying a refundable deposit we require that you leave one of your passports during the whole rental period to our housekeeper. You will get it back at check out after having paid for the minibar and any damages or losses. At check out you pay cash in Thai Baht.
For more information see our homepage www.kohtaoresortvilla.com
How it all started
The first time we (my wife, children and I) came to Thailand was 20 years ago. After this first trip we have visited the country at least once a year. Much has changed but the best is still there, the climate, the food and the friendly people. After having traveled around in almost every corner of the country for 15 years we started to become quite tired of staying in different hotels. For two years we were looking around in the areas we liked best to find our dream land where we could build our dream house.
We were on our way to Koh Lanta to look at a plot that we were interested in, luckily we went even beyond Koh Tao to have a look what land was availabe there. After only 6 hours on the island, we had found our dream plot with an amazing location 35 meters above the sea, and it was for sale! Good was also that the ground was perfect for the dream project that we had in our minds for all these years. A villa facing south treating us with both sunrises and sunsets. Our wish was to have 3 bedrooms in separate buildings so that one can live undisturbed but close to rest of the family or friends, a main house with kitchen/dining/sitting areas, a large free form swiming pool and a private access to the sea from the large sundeck.
Bob purchased this villa in 2013
After 2,5 years of planning and construction our dream project was finished and we could move in.
It feels great to share this amazing villa with others that have the same feelings about it as we do. We try to spend as much time as possible in the villa, but since we have had more bookings than we ever thought we have started to build a new pool villa on another cliff just 200 meters from Villa Sabai Jai, scheduled for completion in December 2014.
As we mentioned we have been staying in many hotels around the country (and the world). Whenever you come to a new place you have to get to know the place and it takes time. Maybe you miss the best things because you didn´t know about them. That´s why we have prepared two binders, one for the villa and one for the island with redommendations of what to do, where to eat and what beaches to visit etc. So it will be easy for you to get a quick feeling about the island. We hope you find them useful!
Make your dreams come true!
Inredningen i husen var vacker, välplanerad och hade många fina detaljer. Sängarna var fantastiskt sköna och de stora badrummen med alla bekvämligheter var en fröjd att beträda.
Alla rum hade stora glasväggar som gjorde att man inte missade något av den magnifika utsikten. Dessa kunde även öppnas helt, vilket gjorde att man fick känslan av ett uterum.
På den stora altanen fanns många sittgrupper och solstolar vid poolen. Trots att det fanns andra hus i närheten var det ingen insyn och man upplevde total avskildhet. Dessutom var det lugnt och tyst dag som natt vilket är ovanligt i länder i Asien.
En fördel var också att det fläktade skönt hela tiden, vilket gjorde att vi kunde spendera mycket tid vid poolen utan att få värmeslag.
Det fanns två fina stränder i närheten på gångavstånd. Jag besökte båda och simmade i det varma havet, dock var det skönast att "bara vara" hemma på villa Sabai.
För att ta sig till shopping, restauranger och nöjen krävs moped eller bil. Det är inte långt att åka men det är en mängd branta backar att parera. Det finns mycket att handla och priserna är ungefär som de på Koh Samui. Restaurangutbudet är stort, ofta till mycket förmånliga priser.
Vi handlade hem frukt och grönsaker samt köpte hämtmat så vi kunde vara på hemmaplan och äta i lugn och ro.
Varje dag städades rummen och vi fick välja frukost som tillagades och serverades av deras maid Lek.
Ser redan fram emot att få komma tillbaka till detta vackra paradis.
Anna A
Most people come to Koh Tao for diving but that doesn´t mean there is nothing elso to do.
Except for diving you can:
• Take a boat around the island and visit the different beaches. Snorkel and swim with black tip sharks, visit unforgettable water worlds, stop at any of the countless secluded beaches. This is the best way of seeing real Koh Tao! Highly recommended!
• Fishing expeditions with equipment provided and a professional advisor to guide you.
• Visit the marine park
• Visit the paradise island Nang Yuan
• Rent a motorbike or ATV and explore the island
• Muay Thai (Thai boxing)
• Rock Climbing
• Flying trapeze
• Snorkeling
• Kayaking
• Hiking
• Bowling and mini golf
• Shopping
• Sailing
• Thai Massage
• Yoga
• Thai cooking courses

For Immediate Release
Date: 06/17/13
AUGUSTA - The Maine House of Representatives voted Monday in favor of yet another fee increase measure. The bill, LD 1263, imposes a 13 percent increase on resident snowmobile registration fees with a $5 hike, from $40 to $45. This fee hike comes on the heels of Democrat-led increases to ATV registration fees, registry of deeds fees, and municipal agent fees for passenger vehicle registrations.
"We all want to make sure the trails are properly groomed," said Assistant House Republican Leader Alexander Willette (R-Mapleton). "The problem is that state government keeps demanding more money from working Mainers in order to do it. The state should prioritize its funding and do this within existing resources."
Rep. Ellie Espling (R-New Gloucester), who serves on the legislature's Inland Fisheries & Wildlife (IFW) Committee, which sent the bill to the floor mostly along party lines, agreed.
"While the Department of Health and Human Services gives us massive cost overruns every year because of our out-of-control welfare system, working Mainers are being asked to fork over more money every time they go to the town office," said Espling.
The most recent fee hike came last Thursday, when the House enacted LD 559 along party lines, slapping an extra $6 fee on those recording an instrument, including plans, at all county registries of deeds. Under the bill, fees will reach $19 for instruments generally and $21 for plans, a 40-46 percent increase.
"These fee hikes are coming at us from all angles, and I can't support them as long as we have so much waste and overspending in state government," said Rep. Rick Long (R-Sherman). Rep. Long spoke on the House floor about how his constituents struggle to keep their sleds on the trail as it is. "Some are saying that the snowmobile clubs support this, but I know mine doesn't," he said.

Earl Sweatshirt is a regular cast member on Tyler, The Creator's sketch show Loiter Squad now, but other than that, he doesn't seem to spend much time with his old Odd Future buddies. So feel the nostalgia here: Left Brain, a longtime Odd Future member and the production half of the duo MellowHype, has remixed "Chum," the amazing gut-scraping single from Earl's Doris album. And hearing Earl over those queasy synths and off-kilter drums again is enough to remind me of a time when these kids seemed poised to take over the universe, when their entire aesthetic seemed like something new. Download it below.
