The Languages of Fermilab
To get a better sense of the nationalities represented in modern physics experiments, FermiNews recently conducted a thoroughly unscientific and completely unofficial survey of the laboratory's two largest collaborations, CDF and DZero. We asked the collaborators to tell us by email what languages they speak. We figured that the languages that turned up would give us a pretty good idea of the diversity of the experimenters' nationalities. So far, we have compiled a list of 63 different languages.
If you are a Fermilab experimenter and you speak a language that isn't listed, we would very much like to hear from you. Send us an email at firstname.lastname@example.com with your name, your experiment, and the languages you speak. We'll keep an updated tally on this webpage.

Muneer Deeb
A rumor on the jailhouse grapevine led to Muneer Deeb's death sentence
Muneer Mohammed Deeb was sentenced to death in 1985 for the contract murder of a woman in McLennan County, Texas, under a seemingly improbable scenario.
The prosecution theory of the crime apparently began as a jailhouse rumor. The grapevine had it that the victim had been mistakenly murdered by three men Deeb had hired to kill a different woman. The other woman worked for Deeb at a convenience store he operated in Waco. The supposed plot on the employee's life was said to have been a scheme to defraud an insurance carrier.
Prosecutors alleged that Deeb had agreed to pay $5,000 for the murder. There was no evidence of such a payment, however, and other evidence of the plot was weak and circumstantial. None of the alleged co-conspirators testified — although they too were charged with capital murder and, therefore, were in a position to negotiate leniency for themselves in exchange for testifying against the purported mastermind of the plot.
Deeb's alleged motive
Deeb was the beneficiary of an accident insurance policy on the supposed target of the plot, and the policy carried a $20,000 death benefit. But Deeb carried such policies on all of his employees, none of whom ever had been murdered, and he said the policies were only a hedge against worker-compensation claims.
The prosecution theory was all the more questionable because the facts of the crime were not exactly hallmarks of a professional hit. Not only did Deeb's purported co-conspirators killed the wrong woman, they also raped and tortured her. And they did the same to two of the wrong woman's friends.
Because it was a conspiracy case, one witness was permitted to testify that Deeb had acknowledged he would receive insurance money if one of his employees ever was murdered. As innocent as such a remark may have been — it was, after all, a fact — the innuendo was anything but innocent.
After Deeb testified, however, the prosecution called as a rebuttal witness a man who had shared a jail cell with one of Deeb's alleged co-conspirators. The rebuttal witness testified that his cellmate had described the murder-for-hire scheme in detail. The trial judge permitted the testimony, holding that it fell within a conspiracy exception to the rule barring hearsay.
The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals disagreed, however, and on the ground that the jailhouse informant's hearsay whould not have been admitted, reversed and remanded the case in 1991. A jury acquitted Deeb two years later.

Because of the gravity of the situation, the emergency staff/ clinician who first sees a rape victim must be empathetic.
1)Written consent must be obtained for the gynaecological examination.
Photographs may also be taken if they are to be used as evidence. The written consent may be obtained either from the patient or guardian/next of kin.
The police should also be notified as soon as possible.
2)History should be obtained from the patient. Ideally it must be recorded in her own words. Important aspects of the history include the time, place, circumstances ,last menstrual period (LMP). It is also important to ask if she is pregnant and the time of the most recent coitus prior to the sexual assault.
Other details should include, which of the orifices were penetrated, use of foreign objects, number of assailiants.
Did the victim come directly to the hospital or did she bathe and change her clothing.
3)What is the general appearance of the victim? do you think drugs or alcohol may be involved? Is the victim calm, agitated or confused?
The patient should disrobe while standing on a white sheet. Any hair,dirt, underclothing must be kept as evidence. Torn and stained clothing should also be kept as evidence. The pubic hair should be combed for evidence. Material should also be scraped from beneath the finger nails. All evidence must be placed in separate bags/envelopes and labeled carefully.
The patient should be examined ,and traumatized areas should be photographed.
The body and genitals should be examined with wood's light to identify semen. Positive areas will fluoresce .These areas should be swabbed with a moisened swab and air-dried in order to identify acid phosphatase.
Colposcopy may be used to identify small areas of trauma eg in the posterior fourchette.
4)A pelvic examination should be performed after explaining the procedure and obtaining the patients consent.
Only a narrow speculum should be used. In rape victims one should only use water as a lubricant.Sterile cotton swabs should be used to collect material from the cervix and upper vagina. These should be air dried on two glass slides after smearing.
Wet and dry swabs should also be collected and refrigerated for subsequent DNA and acid phosphatase evaluation.
If appropriate the mouth and the anus must be swabbed (eg in anal rape).
Secretions from the vagina,mouth,anus may be collected by a swab and placed on a slide. A drop of saline should be added and covered with a coverslip. This should be examined for motile and non motile sperms. The finding must be recorded. The percentage of motile forms must be noted.
5)Laboratory tests should be done to identify sexual transmitted diseases. Swabs may be taken from the vagina, anus or mouth and cultured for N Gonorrhoea and chlamydia. A wet mount for trichomonas vainalis and a papanicolaou smear should be done. A VDRL test (for syphilis) and a pregnancy test should be done.
A HIV antibody test should be done and repeated after 2 to 4 months later, if the initial test was negative.The pregnancy test must be repeated if the next menses is missed. Ideally the VDRL should be repeated in six weeks time.
Blood(without anticoagulant) and urine specimen should be obtained if there is a history of forced ingestion or injection of drugs .
6) Laboratory specimens should be transferred to the responsible clinical pathologist/technician in the presence of witnesses and never via a messenger, so that evidence is not breached.
Treatment /drugs administered to rape victims will be addressed in a subsequent post.

The Amazing Spider-Man Movie Review
By Anne Brodie Jul 3, 2012, 16:34 GMT
One of the worlds most popular characters is back on the big screen as a new chapter in the Spider-Man legacy is revealed in The Amazing Spider-Man. Focusing on an untold story that tells a different side of the Peter Parker story, the new film stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans, Denis Leary, Campbell Scott, Irrfan Khan, with Martin Sheen and Sally Field. The film ...more
They got it right. The Amazing Spider-Man can take its place in the summer blockbuster Hall of Fame, as entertaining and thrilling as any films of the superhero canon, and set the stage for sequels. There is a release date for the first sequel but no script at this point.
Some of the best flying sequences in movies are right here in this tasty action epic; you feel youre hurtling between skyscrapers and into space in the skies over Manhattan. Its visceral; you know what it is to fly, at the movies at least. The sequences are dizzying, thrillingly beautiful and haunt us long after the film ends.
The simmering romance between Spider-Man and Gwen Stacey has equal importance to the other matters at hand like the killing of the virus thats turning people into lizard monsters and the ancient battle against evil. Its well developed and as they are such likeable characters, its a beautiful counterpoint to the darkness of Parkers mission.
Parkers personal mission is to find out what became of his parents when he was a child. He was raised by Uncle Ben (Martin Sheen) and Aunt May (Sally Field) but always felt the emptiness of their loss. He gets to know his fathers partner Dr. Curt Connors (Rhys Ifans) and learn about his experiments in genetics.
Parkers worldly mission is to get to the root of whats eating Connors, and stamp out the evil he unleashes. Thats the central driving force of the film, the intense battles high in the skies of the city, and in its sewers, man versus monster, light versus dark, the usual superhero destiny. There is tendency to overkill and sadly the monster lacks originality and interest.
Andrew Garfield is the new Spiderman and does a bang up job tackling an extreme range of superhero emotions, keeps a cool head but allows the odd tear to trail down his cheek. Hes beautifully paired with Stone, as Gwen, who happens to be the daughter of Chief of Police, and she has tremendous presence, intelligence and integrity. And she doesnt just stand there shes pro-active in Spideys battles and a moral support.
Its a special delight to watch the veteran supporting players Field, Denis Leary, and Sheen, as they tackle the adult issues that arise like family, ageing and death. Theirs are familiar faces well-worn by time and experience, and brimming with love for Parker. These are great moments.
Marc Webbs background as a director of music videos and the tender, intimate romantic drama 500 days of Summer culminates in a perfect balance for this umpteenth Spiderman outing, and makes it one of the strongest. Its a winner as it successfully marries the outsized super hero and human hearts and big special effects with kitchen table intimacy.

Every Breath You Take
Joan Percival - 08/12/2014
i love this dance
Wonder Train
Val Whittington - 07/12/2014
Great upbeat track that you can sing along too. Yes dance is a bit nippy at the start but no real problem and with the tag on same wall same place every time easy to remember. A big hit with class and recommended.
Jane Middleton - 07/12/2014
I have to agree this dance fits the music beautifully, feels good when dancing it too. Quirky steps in the middle are fun too, only 32 counts - no tags or restarts. Well worth a shot but I did find that one or two were not keen on the music but most loved it!
Say It To Me
Christine Wallace - 06/12/2014
Maggie creatively combines sways, holds, sweeps, twinkles and drags in this delightful waltz which flows beautifully and interprets the music perfectly.The dance seems much shorter than its 96 counts because of the many hold steps. One not to be missed. Very highly recommended. Thanks Maggie!
A Christmas Truce
Lorraine Greener - 05/12/2014
we finally got round to doing this today. not quite as easy as it looks and the timing takes a little bit of getting used to but a really nice dance to do
No Trouble
Stephen Rolls - 04/12/2014
Excellent fun easy improver dance to a track that brings the smiles out. Ideal teach for the Christmas parties. Our class love it.
I Lived
Debbie Lessells-Smith - 04/12/2014
Taught this last night and class picked it up really well - another great dance to a great piece of music and proved a real hit!
Rhythm Of Love
Stephen Rolls - 04/12/2014
Nice easy dance to a lovely track. Has been well received by 2 of our classes so far
One Great Mystery
Valerie Sim - 04/12/2014
Super dance, well worth a teach. Great, another one without tags or re-starts.
Wrapped Up
Linda Garrett - 04/12/2014
Fun dance with lots of interesting shoulder and body moves. Music quite fast but only 32 counts and no tags or restarts. Give it a go.
I See Me
Chris Jones - 04/12/2014
Absolutely love this dance, and one that all can do and a great track, well done Tina argyle I hope this dance does well for you
Hey Porsche
Stephen Rolls - 04/12/2014
Clever choreography by Niels. Different steps that hit the beats in the music perfectly. Sections 7 and 8 caught a few out with the timing to begin with, but the class soon mastered it and liked the dance
I Lived
Kathy Lucas - 04/12/2014
Quite a challenge but so worth the effort! A really good track and some first class choreography which matches perfectly. The three restarts are easier to recognise once the music becomes familiar and, whilst the timing is intricate, it all comes together to create a superb dance which my Intermediates absolutely love.
Uptown Funk
J Myers - 03/12/2014
red hot & on the floor !! > plenty of smiles and funky hip action the tag ( repeat sec 5&6) works well within the dance my only criticism & that of my classes is the lengthy trac 4:06 my answer to that is it will always be played early on in the evening >>> great funky stuff Rob thankyou from us all
We Only Live Once
Elaine Hornagold - 03/12/2014
Wanted something not too taxing this week and this fits the bill perfectly with the bonus of no tags or restarts. Great happy sounding music track and a dance the class picked up with no trouble at all.

I remember first visiting Julfa in mid-August. In the afternoon, we were waiting for our guide near a model of the Gulustan fortress in the center. I felt dizzy under the heat and almost fainted. "Perhaps this is what you call African heat," I said to myself and promised not to come to dry and hot Julfa in the heat of the summer again.
• Note
Established in 1930, Julfa is borders on Armenia and Iran. It is one of the three districts divided in two by the Aras. There is a same-named administrative center in Iran too. The Alinja, Garadarya and Aras rivers flow here. Local mountains are beautiful. Their geological composition has affected their appearance as they look like massive domes. Nasimi and Babak movies were shot in the mountains between Nakhchivan and Julfa. Julfa was a major Silk Way stopover. Ancient caravan roads from Iran to Shirvan, Georgia and Dagestan passed through here. It is a junction of eastward and westward roads. The main overland crossing to Iran is still here. Since the blockade of Nakhchivan, the importance of this checkpoint has significantly increased. Julfa has the biggest railway network in the autonomous republic.
• Julfa station
The Julfa railway station was built in 1900-1905. Its design is typical of 19th century European architecture. It looks like a cemetery of trains and wagons. Once a railway station of international importance, it had to stop operating in 1991 after a blockade was imposed on NAR. The station is also an important junction for Russia, Armenia and Iran..
• Ilandagh
This is considered the emblem of Julfa and NAR. It can be seen from anywhere in Julfa. Nakhchivanis call Ilandagh the center of the world. Just like elsewhe re in Nakhchivan, the mountain is full of poisonous snakes. The 2415-meter mountain is also called Hajagaya or Hajadagh. Some legends associated with Noah's ark are linked to this mountain.
• Ilandagh legend
Ilandagh is also called "Inandag". According to an ancient Shumer legend, Noah's ark hit a summit and was swayed by it. Noah said at the moment: "Believe me, this is a mountain." Hence the name. Subsequently the word "Inan" transformed into "Ilandagh". Most historical monuments in Julfa are located along the Aras. One of them is the Gulustan village.
• Gulustan village
This is one of Julfa's oldest dwellings. It was earlier called Juga. There is Azerbaijan's oldest 13th century caravansary here. The 11-17th century dwelling is surrounded by tall mountains and the Aras. There are mineral water springs in the village. The 12th century historical bridge is among Azerbaijan's rare architectural monuments discovered during excavations in 1974-1978. There is also a necropolis belonging to the same period. The best-known monument in the village is the Juga tomb, better known as the "Gulustan fortress".
• Gulustan fortress (13th century)
One of NAR's most historic monuments belongs to a group of tower-like tombs. Since it is located on the Aras river bank right on the border with Iran, it is not open to visitors. Such tombs are widespread in Anatolia, therefore, the Gulustan tomb is considered a typical indicator of Azerbaijani and Anatolian Seljuks. The monument has many ornamental elements. The tomb's tent cover is fully destroyed. Disputes over the form of its dome are still ongoing. There are no inscriptions on it, which makes it impossible to identify the date of construction. Neither is it known who the architect was and who it was built for. It is believed that the fortress was built in the 13th century under the influence of Momine Khatun Mausoleum.
• Khanagha village
Located 37 km north of the center on the slopes of the Zangezur range on both sides of the Alinjachay river, this 13-18th century village has a 14-17th century necropolis, a historical bridge and an old mosque built by an unknown woman in 1496. Besides, Khanagha is known for two monuments:
1. Alinja fortress
2. Khanaghah architectural complex
These are Julfa's must-see sights.
• Alinja mountain
It is 1811 meters tall. Its volcanic nature has created a unique rocky landscape around it. The same-named village is 35 km north of the center on the Alinjachay river banks and on Zangezur slopes. In the 18th century, the place was subordinated to the Ottomans. The Alinjachay, the left tributary of the Aras, is 62-km long.
• Alinja fortress
The fortress is a snake nest. It is infested with snakes from May to the onset of cold weather. Therefore, to get to Alinja one should start in the morning and return before noon. The easiest way lies through Khanaga. Some village homes are at the foot of the Alinja mountain. It takes about five hours to climb up and down the mountain. The air is filled with the smell of thyme. It is often added to tea. The fortress walls start at the foothill and ascend by natural steps. Its upper part resembles a small camp. Remains of many brick buildings have survived to the present day. The small fortress higher up the hill, the Shah throne, was inhabited by chiefs and feudalists. it used to house cattle, 600 warriors and ammunition. There are seven natural pools here and special ditches. During rain, the ditches carried rainwater to the pools to create a supply of water. The importance of the Alinja fortress enhanced during the Atabay-Eldaniz rule in Azerbaijan as it served as a shelter for the ruling family during military uprisings. The residency of Zahida Khatun, Nakhchivan's 12th century ruler, and the treasury of Atabays were at the Alinja fortress.
• Alinja mint
Medieval feudal rulers kept their treasuries at the Alinja fortress. In the 14-16th centuries, Dirhams of Elkhan and Timur rulers were coined at the mint. Since the fortress is located on a steep slope, it was unassailable. Amir Timur could not seize it either. He kept it under siege for 10 years. Over this period, those inside gradually left the fortress. There were all conditions for normal life in it. Food was brought from nearby villages through a secret tunnel. Spanish diplomat Ruiz Gonzales Clavijo, the ambassador of King Enrique the Third in 1403-06, provided the following description of the fortress:
"The Alinja fortress sits on a high and steep mountain and is surrounded by walls and towers. Inside the walls there are vineyards, gardens, plantations, pastures, springs and pools. There is a palace at the top of the mountain."
• History
There are different theories as to when Alinja was built. Some researchers say it was built about two millennia ago. Others think it was constructed in the time of 3rd-4th century Sassanid Padishahs. The Book of Dada Gorgud describes the Alinja fortress as a stronghold.
• Place-name
It is known as Alanjik and Alinjagala. Researchers link the name to the word "alan", which meant "valley" in ancient Turkic languages because the fortress location resembles a small square. The word's etymology suggests that Alincak means "hands off", which is linked to the unassailable nature of the fortress. Another theory is that "Alinja" is the name of one of Noah's eight sons who found shelter here after the Deluge.
• Khanagah
The tomb opposite Alinjagala is in the center of the Khanagah dwelling (18- 11th centuries B.C.). From here Alinjagala looks like a model. The inscription says that the tomb was built in the time of Amir Seyyid Ahmed al-Ogul Sami's son, vizier Haji Mahammad Garagoyunlu Jahanshah (1436-1467), for his son Amirkhan. The Khanaga village on the Alinjachay river is a medieval architectural complex. There are ruins of a tomb, mosque, columns of an unknown monument, etc. here. The tomb is largely called Sheikh Khorasan and was built on the order of great scholar Ulug Gutlug Lala Bay. The inscription bears the name of architect Jamaladdin. Construction date is not visible, so the age of the tomb is unknown. Architecturally, it is attributed to the 12-13th centuries. Local people believe that the after the tragic death of Hurufism founder Fazlallah Naimi at Alinja in 1394, his followers buried him here. People started calling the place Sheikh Khorasan after the philosopher's nickname of Sheikh Khurasa, i.e. like the Sun. Since he received his education in Khorasan, he was called the Sheikh of Khorasan. The mosque south of the tomb was built by Khond Bika Khatun in memory of Sufi leader Sheikh Haji Lala Mali in 1495-96. In middle ages, Sufi sheikhs lived in Khanagah with their families and were subsequently buried there. Khanagah remained a dwelling until the 18th century.
• Fazlallah Naimi (1340-1402)
He founded Hurufism, a sect widespread in the Near and Middle East in middle ages. For his promotion of Hurufism and political struggle against ruling circles, followers of Amir Timur persecuted him until the Alinja fortress. He was snatched by Amir Timur's son Miranshah and executed in the fortress.
• Timur's descendants in Nakhchivan
Timur's troops invaded Iran in the spring and Nakhchivan in autumn of 1386. Timur's soldiers kept Alinja under a sustained siege. The local sultan placed his treasury and family in the fortress and ordered 300 fighters to protect it. Fighting against Timur, the founder of Hurufism, Fazlallah Naimi, was killed by Timurs son Miranshah in 1394. Wherever you go in Nakhchivan, there seems to be no end to sight to stories about history. Everywhere you look there is history. The land is rich in valuable ore and minerals. In other words, when in Nakhchivan, one can't stop admiring the place. Another object of admiration is located on the Julfa-Ordubad road.
• Daridagh
The mountain 8 km north-east of Julfa is bare but colorful. Minerals have changed the color of its rocks and ground. Daridagh is 850 meters above sea level. Its upper part has always been suitable for land-farming. The cone-shaped Daridagh mountain was studied by scientists in 1920-30 who discovered numerous mineral deposits on it and studied their physical and chemical composition.
• Daridagh mineral water deposit
There are about 40 mineral water deposits in Julfa. One of them is at the foot of Daridagh. It gives 500,000 liters of mineral water a day. It consists of five springs and 32 exploration wells. For its make-up, the water is similar to Kudova (Poland), La Bourboule (France), Durkheim (Germany), Sinegorsk (Sakhalin). For its mineral content, the Daridagh water is even better. Its temperature is 53-57ºC.
• Daridagh sanatorium
It is an arsenical water sanatorium where water has the highest and most powerful mineral content in Azerbaijan. It was established at the Daridagh mineral water deposit in 1978 and provides treatment for different cardiovascular, musculoskeletal system, peripheral nervous system, skin, gynecological and other diseases. There is a carbon gas factory here too.

Latest at Housewife: Two posts for you! Sage and Onion Stuffing recipe – http://ow.ly/6ROos & Breast Cancer Fundraiser – http://ow.ly/6ROnn
October 9, 2011
Wow that looks delicious! I have only ever made stuffing at Christmas before but this has inspired me to make some the next time I roast a bird.
October 9, 2011
It's been too long since I made my own stuffing yet it's something I really love. Must put those left over home made bread crusts to good use!
October 9, 2011
It looks delicious. I rarely try sage and onion but I'll have to give it a whirl. Our family favourites are sausagemeat and forcemeat – one in each end of the turkey!
Debbie (monkeyandbo) permalinkOctober 13, 2011
This has taken me straight back to my childhood as my mum always made her own. Roast chicken is definitely on the list of must-haves for this weekend so that I can give this a whirl! Thanks for sharing
October 26, 2011
I've just found your blog, LOVING this stuffing recipe. I always make my own too but my husband is away (army) so I never cook like that just for me. Can't wait for xmas! X

Thanks for sharing this. I love UD products and even though they are highly pigmented some do lack umph when put on alone, think I'm going to invest in some cream eyeliner to help!
Love J.

lovely post! I have to say I was like you before I started working in retail and discovered the UDPP.. i haven't yet tried TFSI, but I have so much UDPP I don't know when I will!
And yes the price has DEFO shot up, coz of VAT rise, but our pay doesnt increase with it does it?!
- 7 March 2011 at 16:16
- Alaina said...
Great post! I have tried the UDPP and the TFSI and I love them both. I NEVER thought of using the 24/7 liners as a base but that is such a brilliant idea! Thanks for the tip! Also my favorite base is MUFE gel liner in Aqua Black...it doesn't budge! thanks for the post!
- 7 March 2011 at 16:24
- Alhrayth said...
interesting post! I often wonder if I should try one of these famous primers... So far I have found one that does work - http://flic.kr/p/9nkSH1 - and it's definitely cheap, being from an almost unknown brand... I can never decide If I want to risk the splurge to see if the big name brands work better, or not!

- LilyLipstick said...
Great post, I love UDPP - I've had mine for over a year and it's only just started to run out. I've never tried an eyeshadow base but those UD eyeliners look lovely. x

- Dainty Darling Digits said...
I love UDPP but ended up steering away and using MAC Paint Pots, the color selection is what did it! But have to stick my fingers in and end up jabbing it with my nail is annoying (brushing it on just doesn't work the same). I love using NYX Milk under brights. Never thought to use an eyeliner as a base! Will have to try, Lucky with Honey = amazing! I truthfully didn't like Pixie Epoxy, I find it impossible to blend over. And I've never tried Too Faced but the tube shape alone is appealing.
Long comment is long!

- Tracy D said...
Great post, I am not a fan of the UDPP really either and haven't tried Two Faced yet. I usually use MAC's paint pot in Painterly although I don't think it adds to the shadow's color like the TFSI does..wow.
- 7 March 2011 at 17:28
- Kat said...
I love UDPP, and I think I'll have to get a black cream eyeliner to use as a base. Fishnet looks amazing over that black e.l.f one! xx
- 7 March 2011 at 18:32
- Robyn said...
TFSI is £16 now? Blimey O'Reilly. I'd like to try the Shadow Insurance but UDPP works so well for me that I don't know if I want to risk it...
- 7 March 2011 at 19:09
- Kim said...
Great post! I'm not a fan of UDPP but I shall check out Too Faced Shadow Insurance. I'd never thought of using my e.l.f. liner as a base. Will definitely give it a go :) I think I'm definitely going to have to get some NYX Jumbo Pencils too! xxx
- 7 March 2011 at 20:04
- xSafarE said...
i have UD PP in Sin and as pretty as it looks its a complete pain the the ass as it creaaaases so i think ill just have to get some TFSI i had no idea it was sooo expensive though thats a crazy prize increase :\
- 7 March 2011 at 23:48
- AllThingsGirly said...
I need to try the Two Faced Primer. It is the next one that I am going to pick up once I run out of my UDPP. I have a couple NXY pencils that I love!! They really do make all the difference. What do you think of face primers?
- 8 March 2011 at 01:41
- The Peach said...
Like you, it took me a while to buy into the whole primer thing. But after realizing I wasn't getting good results with what I was using, I finally gave in. I went with TFSI due to the packaging. I'm so glad I finally invested in it! I also love Pixie Epoxy!
- 8 March 2011 at 03:06
- Rachel said...
Fab post! I use ELF's core line eyelid primer and even compared to UDPP I'd say it's as good (having used UDPP for a while) but for £1.50, I couldn't believe it!
I also love my NYX pencils, though I've never used my UD eyeliners as bases, will play around with that! ELF cream eyeliner in copper is beautiful!
- 8 March 2011 at 10:22
- hollie.gardner said...
I use UDPP, havenmt managed to get my mitts on a NYX pencil yet :( but got some inglot cream eyeliners Ive now been inspired to try out !

- Beauty's Bad Habit said...
@ Bon Vivant Clique, I think the UD satins/ metallics have fab pigmentation/ finishes but the mattes and glitters need a little extra help!
@ esteeem, the rise in the price of TFSI is well above the last VAT rise I think...No idea why it has risen so high :/ Tbh though, it is more or less the same as UDPP so you aren't missing out too much!
@ Alaina, glad you like the ideas :) I love the purple UD liner with MAC 'Violet' pigment if you have that - try it!
@ alhrayth, it looks like your cheap primer is doing just as good a job as the more expensive ones!
@ Lily, I love how long UDPP lasts! I think I've only had to buy two in the last five years :S It helps getting the mini sizes with the palettes, though! Bases are ace, try some out for sure :)
@ Dainty Darling Digits, MAC paint pots did tempt me but it's like you say - jabbing your fingers in the pot/ having to use a brush would annoy me! Nyx 'Milk' is ammmaaazing under brights! Bought it a little while ago and was kicking myself for not doing so sooner. I don't notice any difference with blending with Pixie Epoxy :S I just use the tiniest amount imaginable, so that it doesn't even feel like you're wearing any. The thicker it is, the more annoying it will be.
@ Tracy D, you might like the Too Faced - it's smoother and easier to blend over than UDPP.
@ Kat, duochromes/ metallics look incredible over dark bases! Definitely try it out!
@ Robyn, I know! I couldn't believe it! If udpp works you may as well stick with it, the difference between the two isn't worth the £4.50 price difference.
@ Kim, definitely try the Nyx jumbo pencils - especially 'Milk'! Fabulous product and so handy to have :)
@ xSafarE, it is a crazy price increase :/ You might want t o try the UDPP again, using the tiniest amount you can manage. Usually when it creases it's just down to too much having been applied :)
@ AllThingsGirly, I hope you like the TFSI primer as much as the UDPP. In general, I'm not a huge fan of face primers. I have oily skin and most primers are geared towards dry/ combination skin. All in all, if you have a decent foundation and nice skin a primer isn't necessary.
@ The Peach, primers are so worth the investment, right?! Pixie Epoxy is fab :)
@ Rachel, thanks! I might try the ELF primer - I've heard it's a bit hit and miss for most people.
@ Hollie, I hope you like the result you get with your Inglot pencils!

- Barefoot Domestic Goddess said...
I like both UDPP and TFSI. I have a lot of the UDPP mini's from different purchases and the TFSI as well, plus they had the full size in a kit at Sephora a while back. Honestly, they both work the same for me, the difference for me is the color of the primer, I think TFSI looks better on my lower eye area.
Just getting into the shadows/liners as bases and haven't really reached any opinion here yet. Your blog is sure one that inspired me to give this a try, and so far I like it. I have my first order of NYX on the way, I have yet to find it locally. Can't wait to try Milk!

Hi! This is a very good explanation of the difference between a primer and a base! I put a link to this entry in the info bar under one of my videos on youtube, I really hope you won't mind. I clearly state that it's not my blog, and that you explain it better than I could have done myself :) xoxo Sandra

Chronic Cover Songs for 420: The Shakers Do Up Murphy's Law's "Quest for Herb"
Categories: Happy 420, Stoners
Editor's note: If you grew up in South Florida, you've lived a delightfully half-baked existence. You've definitely smoked the stickiest crippy and the worst Jamaican schwag. County Grind got all stoned and thought, why not ask these toasty South Florida musicians to give us a taste of their favorite pot-inspired songs in preparation for 420? This Chronic Cover series introduces you to both songs about weed and local talents. For the full list, click here.
Members of the Shakers are no newbies to making music around these parts. All have been in other bands over the years, too many for even them to name. The Shakers have existed since 1994 in one form or another and with the current lineup for the past four. This fine group of men includes Pat Stahl, Jon Stahl, Chris "Spikey" Goldbach, and Joe "Jit" Marino.
These Pompano Beach dudes have already released four EPs and two LPs and are working on more audio that you can purchase and enjoy at your leisure. Their punk/hardcore act has opened for Less Than Jake, Guttermouth, and Agent Orange, among others.
Here, you'll find a solid cover of Murphy's Law's "Quest for Herb." It's a condition we've all been stuck in. Running missions for some green. Certainly, this isn't your typical stoner song, but maybe if ya smoke a doobie after a few drinks, the desire for this hardcore gem will grow inside you, you'll lean over your vaporizer and press play.Catch them at the Poorhouse, 110 SW Third Ave., Fort Lauderdale, on Friday, April 20, of course, with Out of Sorts and Here's to Nathan at 11 p.m. No cover, and it's 21 and over. You can buy their album Crabby Road at Radio-Active Records on Record Store Day, Saturday, April 21.

1st winter Citrine Wagtail in Comox (Courtenay River Estuary). Initially seen on November 14th, 2012; continued to January 9th, 2013. Sighted again February 15 to February 19, latest sightings March 6 to 24th.
Directions to specific location: From Courtenay, cross the 17th St bridge (Courtenay River) east toward Comox. Turn right onto Comox Road (Dyke Rd) until approximately 500m to the second dirt track (For Sale sign) on the left. Park on the shoulder of Comox Rd. on the right hand side and walk up the track towards the steel chain blocking vehicle access (100m). The wagtail has been observed to the left of the steel chain. Please be aware, this is private property , but birders have been given permission to walk down the dirt track but NOT to enter the property on the left side of the road. UPDATE: there is now a gate installed therefore no more access past the hedgerow due to upcoming farm work.
This is the first Canadian record and second North American record!
Other naturalists' photos here and blog posts with photos at Naturalest Naturalist, Island Nature, Vancouver Island Nature, Fur and Feathers and Nature Student.

Birders this morning from Nanaimo, Nanoose, Victoria, Tofino, Chilliwack & Seattle!
Birders today from Parksville, Victoria, Seattle – Calgary on the way! (and Quadra yesterday).
Birders from Port Alberni, Kelowna today!
Saw the bird and traveled 9 hours to get there from Kelowna, BC on Nov 22.
Visited Comox and saw the Citrine Wagtail November 19 in the am. Great fun! A lifer!
I was out photographing the bird this afternoon and ran into two birders from Idaho and a couple from Amarillo, Texas. I suspect that this is the farthest so far but tomorrow and Sunday will probably bring an influx of birders from a considerable distance. The bird is still being very cooperative.
I arrived with three other birders from Victoria on Tuesday morning, November 20th, at 8:10. People were already there and got us on the bird quickly. We observed it as it foraged on the other side of the field for about an hour and forty minutes. Then we went back home happy. This is the rarest bird I have seen in North America. Thanks to everyone for being so helpful.
Ob the night of Nov. 22, I slept in my Rav4 at the viewing platform area near the Wagtail site. I arrived there at midnight from Abbotsford. It rained and blew like crazy during the night and I was not hopeful for the next morning. However it cleared up and at the site I met a birder from Seatle and we started searching for the Wagtail at the described area just past the chain. We searched for nearly two hours but missed the bird because, as it turned out, we needed a scope. Guy Monty showed up with a scope and he soon had us on the bird. What a relief for us and the other eight or so birders who where there by that time. Thanks Monty and everyone on the island who has made this mega twitch possible.
Saw the bird November 19. One of the rarest birds I've seen in N. America in 50 yrs of birding on the continent – a great find.
Birders today from Nanaimo, Victoria, Seattle, Idaho, Michigan, San Diego California, & Texas!
Incredible to see in our province, let alone this continent!! Came from Christina Lake, BC and it was worth every mile and then some.
Visited on Nov. 19 in during a heavy rain. Travelled from Fort Langley, Walnut Grove and Pitt Meadows.
Thanks to David and Adele Routledge for finding this bird, and to Rand Rudland of the Sunshine Coast for alerting me to it. Travelled from Saratoga Beach to see it Nov. 19.
Sunday ,Nov.25. Got to the field at 9 a.m. and found I was an hour too late-the wagtail was there but had been harrased by a Harrier and a Northern Shrike so after standing around for two hours I decided to head home. A birder from Iowa, James, said he would phone me if it showed up which it did at I p.m.I got ther bird and James got it too.Thanks James-have a nice trip home.
Three of the Malaspina Naturalists came over from Powell River this morning as foot passengers and a fourth currently living in Campbell River met us with a vehicle. When we arrived, the bird had been seen but had gone off somewhere. We went to Kye Bay and Holmes Point where we had lunch and met Terry Thormin. He said he thought we might still have a chance to see it if we went back as the sun was beginning to melt the ice in the ponds which had been frozen solid in the morning. Thanks very much for the alert.
We went back only to meet a crew coming out who said it had been there for an hour. One of these people had good shots of the bird reflected in one of the ponds. This man, who had come from Iowa, said the bird had had a close encounter with a Cooper's Hawk but had escaped. We looked around and suddenly saw it fly across the trail. We followed it across a plank across a ditch and saw it in the field on the right where it remained till we had to leave for the 3.15pm ferry. Although we got good views with our binos and scope, our 18x Lumix cameras were not quite up to it though we may have some distance shots. We enjoyed our trip immensely. Some other members who couldn't make it today, will come on Wednesday to see if it is still there.
We flew down from Calgary to see the Wagtail on Tuesday 20th. and had moderate views at mid-distance in intermittent rain. We returned on 21st Nov and had great looks in sunshine. Thanks to all for keeping us all up to date on the bird, and for obtaining permission to be on private land.
Glad to meet many other birders and photographers, including Terry Thormin whom we knew from his Edmonton days.
Birders from Georgia,Florida, Colorado, Texas, Indiana, Washington on Wed. & Thurs. were unable to locate the bird.
The bird was found again Dec. 1, since then seen by birders from Arizona, Washington, Vancouver & Nanoose.
Bird is still showing well as of today (good photo ops!) Visitors lately from North Carolina, Colorado, California.
Wonderful to see the Wagtail on Dec 8. I had been up from Nanaimo to try for it on the 27th of Nov but unsuccessful. So yesterday was just great.
Has anyone seen the wagtail either Sunday (Feb. 17th) or Monday (18th)? Thinking about traveling from Seattle to look on the 19th.
All the best,
Barry Levine
Here's the most recent report from the Yahoo birding group:
I was up your way yesterday wagtailin' but unsuccessful. I checked
from 10 am to noon, then again at 3 pm. The Routledges were out as well as
several others.
The puddles in the field are drying up and the bird may be going further to
find food. Apparently it was feeding along the edges of the puddles looking
for insects that came out of the mud.
Seems to me with a large estuary nearby that the wagtail has lots of choices
to go to.
Steve Baillie (Nanaimo)
Latest from the Yahoo birding group:
The citrine wagtail made a brief appearance today (Feb 19) at noon, in the usual
location by the wood piles. Seen by myself, David Graylor from California, and
Dave DeReamus from Pennsylvania. It flew in from the southeast where the duck
hunters used to hide, sat on a rock for about a minute by the fourth wood pile,
then flew back in the direction from which it came.

Myeloid sarcoma
Help me code for diagnosis year :
This is a solid tumor composed of immature malignant white blood cells called myeloblasts. A chloroma is an extremedullary manifestation of acute myeloid leukemia; in other words, it is a solid collection of leukemic cells occurring outside of the bone marrow.
Almost any site in the body can be involved; the most frequently affected sites are: the skin, lymph nodes, gastrointestinal tract, bone, soft tissue and testis. Myeloid sarcoma may occur de novo; it may precede or coincide with AML, or represent acute blastic transformation of myelodysplastic syndromes. Myeloid sarcoma may also be the initial manifestation of relapse in a patient with previously diagnosed AML.

Chef releases to home video on August 19, 2014.
One of the most family friendly movies that I have ever seen. The worst "slur" that they use is white. The coarse language refers to words that aren't inappropriate, and ones that anyone over the age of 6 has used. Also, the owners of the food truck live in Colorado, so, there is obviously going to be a pot scene.

Police Fatally Shoot Alleged Gunman Outside Columbus Club
COLUMBUS -- A targeted man remained unidentified after police shot and killed the would-be victim's alleged gunman outside a dance club.
Two Columbus police officers killed Jonathan D. Rodgers after they say they saw him shoot at an unknown man as he exited the Charlie Bear on Olentangy River Road about 2 a.m. Monday.
The officers were working security at the time of the shooting and opened fire when they were threatened by Rodgers during a brief confrontation, according to police.
"I don't know why people think it's OK to point a gun at a police officer," Fraternal Order of Police President (Ohio, 11th District) Jason Pappas said. "It won't be tolerated, and as you can see, the results are never good."
More than 150 people were inside the club at the time of the shooting.
"According to witnesses, a man said he was going to go outside and get a gun and take care of business," said Sgt. Rich Weiner of the Columbus Police Department.
After interviewing dozens of witnesses, detectives are still attempting to locate the man who was allegedly targeted by Rodgers. Investigators do not immediately know if that patron was wounded during the shooting.
Officers said this is not the first time they have had to respond to fights at this particular club.
"It's gotten to the point, now, where it's erupted into gunfire," Weiner said. "So we'll be taking a close look at this establishment to see what we can do to prevent this from happening again."
This marked the sixth officer-involved shooting in the past month.

I am an avid family historian; more interested in uncovering the stories and images of my ancestors than in just getting to the next generation back. If we share an ancestor or relative contact me, I usually have more info and images of the person than I've posted on F-A-G and I enjoy sharing my info & images. I would also love to see any images you may have of shared relatives. You may use the photos I've posted, but please give me credit. Ditto with the biographical sketches.
I'm especially interested in finding images of the Wilbur, McClave, Lewis, Tedrow, & Osborne families in my great x2 grandparents generation and earlier.

RE: Henry Baker #68478901, Gabriel Cem, Schyuler Co.
This pic is the best that I could get. I was crouched under some limbs and could not reach the stone. I had to zoom in to get the pic (if it is the one that I remember). I plan on going back in the Fall when I am up in NY again to try to get more pics. I will check on this one again to see what else I can do.
I added a link below for you. It is someone's transcription of all the stones in the cemetery. I added Henry's info from the site below the link. It matches up with a 1775 birthdate. There may be other info at this site for your Henry Baker.
Good luck,
PS Feel free to send me more questions and I will try to help.

I found duplicates of this memorial after obtaining management of one. You sponsored the original one but did leave flowers on the duplicate I now manage. Just wanted to mention it as I will have the duplicate removed after the information I added is transferred and I have contacted everyone leaving flowers and the sponsor of the duplicate. Just an FYI. Judi

Honestly, I don't know where the information came from at the current moment. I haven't looked into the Mustard family in a while. I'm not a descendant of Enos though I am related to the Mustard family. I'll see what I can find, but as I recall I didn't have much information on the Mustard family to begin with.

Hi Nanny,
Was sweet of you to transfer the duplicate but it's not necessary. We all make dupes and it's no big deal.

First of all, rest assured there is nothing wrong with your medical scanner. It's FDA certified and the noise is taken into account for that certification. But why does it exist?
The noise is due to the metal gears that drive the light source along behind the glass. Similar to solid metal timing gears on race engines, they provide precision movement and long lifetime. These are medical grade scanners, not consumer grade. They don't use nylon gears that wear rapidly or a belt that can break, rendering your scanner useless. What you're hearing isn't noise. It's the sound of money in your pocket. You won't be replacing your scanner for a while.
Note also that the nylon gears (or belt) lack the rigidity needed to ensure precision movement of the light source during the scan. Metal gears give you that precision. Yes, your standard consumer grade scanner meets spec when it's new. But after those plastic parts wear and deform, it no longer does.
But how do you cope with the sound of the metal gears, if you find the noise irritating? The basic method is an enclosure, something we learned to use back in the days of dot matrix printers. Those were much noisier than these scanners, so you will find the enclosures easily solve the noise problem. You can find these enclosures at places like the Wellbeing Store, Ergonomic Home, and Dustshield (all have Websites). You just need one large enough to accomodate your scanner.
If the noise affects primarily areas adjacent to where the scanner is, you could try a partition (even a short one may be sufficient). This noise reduction method gave rise to the modern cubicle farm.

Look what you've built, now are you proud of your deceitful quilt? Well I won't cover myself in it, the warmth has just been choking me. Thanks! Thanks for nothing. I've taken all you've got and started walking. Not broken, still standing. Been ripped apart, but now I'm demanding- no more shit. This is it. I am leaving for myself and no one else. So long, been swell, see you in hell! What would you say? Can't hear. You're buried in the lies that you've laid. I'm breaking myself away from that chain... too bad you don't understand why I'm walking away, and if you're lucky then someday I may forgive you for all of it. But not today.
