SanDisk iXpand Flash Drive review
SanDisk wants you to be able to move files from your iPhone and iPad to your desktop quickly and easily. Can this tiny tool accomplish such a big job?

SanDisk wants you to be able to move files from your iPhone and iPad to your desktop quickly and easily. Can this tiny tool accomplish such a big job?
Mini Review Another example of excellent quality enthusiast-class RAM from Corsair's Vengeance Pro range.
Mini Review A good performance that isn't quite enough to stand out from the competition.
Mini Review Following on from Corsair's successful Vengeance series, the Pro range is also aimed at overclockers, with integrated circuits (ICs) selected for their potential performance.
Though it looks like a standard SD card, the Transcend Wi-Fi SD Card comes with built-in Wi-Fi and syncs with smart devices.
What's the VLP moniker stand for? Why Very Low Profile, of course. Now you can have that massive CPU cooler and performance RAM in the same rig.
With its latest HyperX Beast modules it's like finding out that the little old lady across the street uses a Suzuki Hayabusa to go and collect her pension.
A high-performance memory kit for those cramped mobos burnishing huge third party coolers.
Its price tag might seem steep, but this mighty 8GB kit pays for itself by delivering a whopping performance boost.
Designed for HD video capture and burst shooting, this Class 10 SD card marries fast data transfer rates with capacious storage.
While many USB flash drives come with encryption software to help protect your data, very few go to the lengths of iStorage.
For the launch of its AMD Memory branded modules it has decided to cosy up to Patriot Memory for this dual 4GB stick kit.
At around £26, the Samsung 16GB SDHC Plus Class 10 card may not be the cheapest currently available, but it justifies its premium by boasting a number of protective qualities in addition to high read and write speeds.
Money isn't an issue if you're throwing together your own Intel X79-based system, so splurging an extra £100 on the highest-rated memory kits, such as the Kingston HyperX Genesis 16GB shouldn't cause you too many problems.
On paper, the Patriot Viper Xtreme Division 4 appears to be excellent value. It has opted for a more average 1,600MHz bus speed, helping reduce latencies to the 8-9-8 timings; something it attempts to call 'low latency'. Though we'd prefer to call it 'perfectly normal latency' at this speed.
Racing Red, but where are the go-faster stripes?
Intel X79-compatible memory kit boasting a whopping 16GB of RAM
Holy data transfer Robin, it's a Batman-shaped USB flash drive
A low-profile take on the series, with a tasty lick of paint
A 4GB RAM kit aimed at AMD Llano users, but is it fast enough?
We like our RAM like we like our women - fast and cheap
It's small enough to take anywhere, but is the LaCie FastKey 120GB worth the money?
RAM modules automatically programmed for high speeds, but how do they perform?
An excellent memory kit with enough overhead for a meaty overclock
In the new Vengeance series of dual and triple channel DDR3 from Corsair though that's not necessarily a bad thing. This twin-module kit offers a massive 8GB of speedy system memory, and for just over a ton that's really not bad.

Ivan Ewert is the author of Famished: The Farm. Its sequel, Famished: The Commons, is going through the editorial process right now. --What drew you to Speculative Fiction?Ha, I just did a blog post about this! My father was a huge speculative fiction fan. His library was the thing I coveted most in my young life. When I started reading, I was actually more interested in legends like King Arthur, Robin Hood, and such – things that Disney probably turned me onto initially – but the trappings of fantasy were there.Therefore, as I was reading, dad would suggest things I might enjoy. In third grade, I think, there was a confluence – my mother was teaching (voluntary) art classes to grade school kids, and she brought in the Brothers Hildebrandt, where I learned about The Hobbit. That was it. Done. Fantasy all the way.Lovecraft was my introduction into horror, straight out of dad's library. He also had a lot of originals from Van Vogt, Asimov, and such, but he preferred hard science fiction, which I just don't find interesting. When I found social science fiction, I got more into it.Was there a reason you started writing? I drove my mother nuts with "Let's pretend" as soon as I was old enough to communicate. She humored me, though there was the occasional "Let's pretend you're Ivan, a human boy, and I'm his mother, okay?" I loved make-believe so much more than reality. (Let us leave that in past tense for the moment …)So again, in grade school, I sat down and wrote a play at some point for my friends at school. I remember a cuckoo clock, living toys, and a lost girl. Not much else. Everyone loved it, though, and I was hooked on both the creative aspect and the attention it garnered.Role-playing games distracted me for a long time, and didn't write much in high school – I was making stories but not having to work at writing them down. After college, I took it more seriously.Where do you get your ideas?Do you know I think you're the first one to ask? Ideas have always come to me most easily when moving through the darkness – driving before dawn, flying through the night. Moving silently, alert for danger, other travelers, and story fragments.What's your current writing process? Outliner/Pantser, when, do you play music? pen/paper or keyboard/ink? any rituals? Etc.AIP turned me into an outliner. Once I have the outline done, I carve time in my daily calendar, aiming for a minimum of one hour (usually my lunch hour at work).When that time hits, I turn off my email notifications, my telephone, and any instant message programs. I work in Microsoft Word, though I just bought a new laptop and plan to give Scrivener a whirl. I don't like writing by hand as much. That distracts me.Music is key. KEY. For horror and science fiction work, I'll usually go to bandcamp.com and search tags for ambient, downtempo electronica, or doomjazz. Fantasy is either Azam Ali Radio on Pandora.com or Darkfolk Radio on Last.fm.Then, I just write until the time I allotted is up.I don't have any real rituals. I do give a short "thank you" every morning to whatever's given me all the good in my life, which includes an imagination and the ability to convey it.How did you get started with AIP? I met Jennifer Brozek online through Livejournal; I think it was a friend-of-a-friend thing. I had a lot more spare time at that stage in my life, and I posted little snippets of tales and writing exercises online. We became friends online, then met up at a convention and – to my mind, anyway – became friends in real life.When she founded The Edge of Propinquity, she asked me to contribute; and I can't tell you how happy that made me. I really enjoyed the work, and the discipline it required. Not that I was perfect. At all. I did enjoy it, though; and I'm beyond flattered that AIP continues to believe in me and work with me. They are wonderful, wonderful people whom I love very much. Talk some about the Gentleman Ghouls series.The Lovecraft short story, "The Picture in the House," which scared me sleepless, inspired the main subject matter. I wanted to examine the way that closed, insular societies work. Cults and secret societies have always fascinated me, as has the American experience as a whole, which I hope will come across more clearly as we release the books.I wrote the first book, FAMISHED: THE FARM, over the space of four years. FAMISHED: THE COMMONS took a little over one year. I've written quite a bit about the process of editing those.What are you working on now?I have a dear friend named William Dolan who paints tremendous Chicago street scenes (check him out at http://www.dolanart.com/). His motto is, "I never talk about my work. Talking about it makes me feel like I've done something about it, and as such, the work never really gets done."I saw a lot of truth in that. Talking about the work dilutes it for me and makes it easy to pretend it's moving along faster than it is. I'm still focused on the Gentleman Ghouls series as well as some poetry and short stories, one of which I'm very excited about.Best and worst advice you've received or heard about writing.The worst advice is "write what you know." I hate that phrase with a passion; it lines shelves with copyists and endless memoirs of suburban alienation. I've said it before; write what you're excited to know more about.The best advice … Steven Raichlen, one of my cooking idols, says, "Set concrete goals with realistic timetables." Creative work is still work, and if you just dream up this great big book you want to write "someday," well. Someday never comes.Any last words?Not last, I hope.But I believe in you. I believe in everyone reading these words … you can do anything you want to. It might not be easy, it might not be fun; but it's possible. When you think nobody has any faith, think again. I want you all to succeed and live a life that you find worth living.--Read more about Ivan at his website.

Here's a peek at some of the stuff our authors have been doing lately.Ivan talks about what it's like to go through heavy revisions on a novel (Famished: The Commons) for the first time. This is the sequel to Famished: The Farm.Jennifer talks how she came up with the title for the fourth Karen Wilson Chronicles book, Chimera Incarnate. The first two books, Caller Unknown and Children of Anu, are already out. Jay talks about his 2013 fiction bibliography. He doesn't mention his writing book, Jay Lake's Process of Writing, because it's not fiction. It's an impressive list. You should take a look.

Short and sweet reviews for our Apocalypse Ink Production books on Amazon:Industry Talk - five stars"This book contains a number of essays about two specific fields: Role-Playing Game Freelance Writing and Editing Anthologies. It was though the author had been looking over my shoulder and decided to help me out by giving advice for all of my pending projects. If you are interested in either topic, I highly recommend this book." -Jason AndrewFamished: The Farm - five stars"I don't normally read the horror genre, but this book kept me riveted to the very end! Highly recommend to anyone who loves to be scared and horrified!!" -Kelly S. MadsenCaller Unknown - five stars"I was surprised at how well this was written. It was complete in and of itself while fitting into a series (or so it is advertised -- I plan to find out by reading the series). You can read more than enough about the plot or the setting. I just wanted to confirm it is carried off well without gratuitous sex or other miscellaneous material. Two thumbs up." -S. Marsh

Both Ivan Ewert and Jennifer Brozek have talked about their "Next Big Thing" in blog posts. As it happens, both of these are AIP projects. Jennifer talks about The Children of Anu in her post.Ivan talks about Famished: The Commons in his post.Bonus! Ivan talks about a local eatery naming a sandwich after his book series that sounds very tasty.
Tags: KWC, famished, Interviews, Authors
Ivan, author of FAMISHED: THE FARM, talks about "giving thanks" and writing acknowledgements on his blog. While Jennifer, author of CALLER UNKNOWN, talks about her "gratitude" for the disasters in her life that brought her to where she is today. Those of us at Apocalypse Ink Productions would like to thank everything who has supported us thus far and will support us in the future. We appreciate every single one of you.

Actavis Confirms Generic Rayos® Patent Challenge
PARSIPPANY, N.J., Aug. 27, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Actavis, Inc. (NYSE: ACT) today confirmed that it has filed an Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) seeking approval to market Prednisone Delayed-release Tablets, 1 mg, 2 mg and 5 mg. Actavis' ANDA products are generic versions of Horizon Pharma's Rayos ®, which is approved for use as an anti-inflammatory or immunosuppressive agent for certain allergic, dermatologic, gastrointestinal, hematologic, ophthalmologic, nervous system, renal, respiratory, rheumatologic, specific infectious diseases or conditions and organ transplantation; for the treatment of certain endocrine conditions; and for palliation of certain neoplastic conditions.
Horizon Pharma AG and Jagotec AG filed suit against Actavis on August 26, 2013, in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey seeking to prevent Actavis from commercializing its ANDA products prior to the expiration certain of U.S. patents. The lawsuit was filed under the provisions of the Hatch-Waxman Act, resulting in a stay of final FDA approval of Actavis' ANDA for up to 30 months from the date the plaintiffs received notice of Actavis' ANDA filing or until final resolution of the matter before the court, whichever occurs sooner, subject to any other exclusivities.
Based on available information, Actavis believes it may be a "first applicant" to file an ANDA for the generic version of Rayos ® and, should its ANDA be approved, may be entitled to 180 days of generic market exclusivity.

91 points from Wine Enthusiast Magazine: "Beautifully dark and plummy, with smoky, opulent fruit. Though full and fleshy, it has complex layeringits not just a fruit bomb. Berries and spice, chocolate and herb work in sync, creating a complete, rich and toasty wine with excellent depth." (5/1/2008) 90 points from Wine Spectator: "Bright and distinctive, offering red cherry and currant flavors that just won't quit as this lean, lithe wine zings across the palate. Finishes with silky texture. Drink now through 2012. 6,082 cases made." (May 15, 2008) Blending fruit from a variety of premium Columba Valley vineyard sites and small quantities of cabernet franc, petit verdot and cabernet sauvignon, allows the 2005 L'Ecole No. 41 Columbia Valley Merlot to a lovely level of complexity. Aged in 40% new small oak barrels, oak spice aromas of nutmeg, clove and cinnamon reach your nose first, but the red cherry, black plum and blackberry fruit aromas are not far behind. In the mouth the prominent dark fruit is paired with black peppery spice and chocolate framed by supple tannins.
Below is a listing of the wine review scores we frequently reference in our notes. While these sources remain an excellent source of information, we always recommend that you trust your own palate. Scores in these publications often represent the personal taste of an individual critic, which may not always coincide with your own.

Have a look at mine, and try before purchase!
firstname.lastname@example.com em nome de email@example.com
(Wich allowed me to reply to my customers)
But now, I am receiving email from:
Envato Market (firstname.lastname@example.com)
So, how I am supposed to reply to my customers now? All of them email me from my profile page!
Edit: "The reply works despite the email is do-not-reply@ and there is a message that says you can reply!"
Simple, clean and nice.
Great Video. Nice to see them.
Great video.
I think the information is clear. Authors are thinking on the authors side, that what makes it confuse. But I think it needs some updates.
From what I understand is:
Envato is concerned to explain to authors and buyers how they earn from their users from the amount of the money that gets on their hands: Lets take the $100 item example from a brand new author, envato comission from buyers is $20 and from authors is $30, that makes $50 and the authors earns $50, and between envato and authors it is like the real price of the item is $80 because we (authors) need to pay our fee e.g: $80*37.5% = $30. For authors earning it is the same as $100×50% = $50 (old way but still same), but envato does not take the 50% straight from the author as in past, takes X% from buyer and Y% from author.
So, using the percentages method:
for $0-$3750 envato takes 37,50% from authors, and that means takes: 12.50% from buyers and the author earnings is 50%, so the old earnings percentage still apply (still the same), but I think they must be showed on the earnings page as well, because it did not changed.
I think this changes is to let us know how they earn and probably have some improvements on their statements and accounts.
About the $2 fee, I think that fee was a cost to the envato that was being split.
Am I wrong?
About this thing of buying own item I didn't thought that was possible! Why not the devs do a check on the user if is a seller and it is their item and hide this purchase button?
ShermanJackson said
I prefer the old bar. At least we knew where we stood.
Happy Birthday Envato. Those badges looks great. Great work, and thanks for this gift to us.

Former Georgia football star Bob Taylor dies
ATHENS-Former University of Georgia football standout Elton Robert "Bob" Taylor passed away Thursday, August 7, at his home in LaGrange, Ga. He was 70.
Among his Bulldog career highlights, Taylor was perhaps best known for scoring the winning touchdown to defeat fifth-ranked and defending national champion Alabama 18-17 in 1965, with the famous "Flea-Flicker" play. Before retirement, Bob was employed with Tenneco Company as a Motivational Speaker. Survivors include his daughter, Lisa Taylor (Brett) Stewart; grandson, Brock Stewart; siblings, Beth Taylor McDonald, Jo Taylor (Dan) Payne, Mal (Lita) Taylor, Flor Taylor, Hope (Debra) Taylor, and Martin (Carolyn) Taylor; and a host of other relatives and friends.
Funeral Services will be Saturday, Aug. 9 at 4 p.m. in the chapel of Striffler-Hamby Mortuary in LaGrange with Pastor Hope Taylor officiating. The gathering of family and friends will be Saturday from 2-4 p.m. prior to the service time. Burial will follow in Meadoway Gardens Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to the charity of your choice in memory of Taylor.

30 new arrests as Israel presses West Bank hunt for teens
Published on Jun 20, 2014 12:32 AM
JERUSALEM (AFP) - Israeli troops arrested some 30 Palestinians in the West Bank overnight as they ramped up a search for three teenagers believed kidnapped by Hamas, the army said on Thursday.
The arrests raised the number of Palestinians detained since the youths went missing a week ago to 280, around three-quarters of them members of the Islamist Hamas movement, a statement said.
The teenagers, two of them minors, disappeared from a popular hitchhiking spot in the sprawling southern West Bank Gush Etzion settlement bloc late on June 12.
Israel accuses Hamas of being behind the abductions and has launched a far-reaching military operation aimed at finding the teenagers and also crushing the movement's infrastructure in the West Bank.

CalAmp's CEO Discusses F3Q2012 Results - Earnings Call Transcript
Our MRM growth initiatives continue to drive momentum and we believe that our products are gaining share in a market that is estimated to be growing at approximately 20% a year.
We also believe we are now the number one provider of mobile data devices to the domestic local fleet segment with our industry leading location monitoring unit or LMU product family. In addition, we are gaining traction in Latin America where we have developed tier-one cellular carrier channel partners to market our tracking products for the stolen vehicle recovery application.
As has been the case with channel partners in the U.S., we believe, we are well positioned to establish our products as the standard platforms for our customers internationally, thereby generating predictable and growing revenue streams once integrated into customers end market solutions.
In the emerging insurance segment, we believe our MRM business is competitively positioned with our recently introduced LMU 3000 product. We are currently working with a number of medium and large North American auto insurers to provide the hardware solutions to support their pay-as-you-drive and usage-based insurance initiatives.There are around 250 million insured vehicles in the United States alone. And while that may take some time before we see significant commercial deployments by key North American auto insurance companies, we believe we are well positioned to provide innovative hardware solutions for these deployments when they occur. In our Telemetric Systems business within MRM where we provide bundled solutions, including tracking hardware, hosted software applications and cellular data subscriptions, third quarter results were in line with expectations with healthy revenue from our vehicle finance segment and the seasonal ramp in our remote car start application with the onset of winter weather.

Heirloom Tomato and Mozzarella Tart Recipe
Jun 25, 2012 2:31 pm
A fresh, savory summer tart with heirloom tomatoes
Photo: Ann Stratton
It might seem like a shame to cook the bounty of summer heirloom tomatoes that's right around the corner, which is why this tomato tart features the best of both worlds. You get ripe, juicy slices of tomato that aren't so cooked that they disintegrate, but are slightly mellowed and sweetened from a brief stint in the oven. Combined with fresh mozzarella and a Parmesan-spiked tart crust, this perfect summer lunch isn't your ordinary pizza pie.
Servings: 4 to 6
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 cups freshly ground Parmesan chese
1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and diced
2 to 3 tablespoons ice cold water
6 mixed-color heirloom tomatoes, washed and sliced 1/4-inch thick
1/4 cup fresh basil, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon fresh oregano, chopped
3 tablespoons scallion greens, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- To make the crust: Put the flours, salt, pepper, Parmesan and butter in a food processor. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal. With the motor running, drizzle in the water until the dough starts to stick together.
- Press the dough into a 9- to 10-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Place in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes.
- Prick the bottom of the crust all over with a fork. Line with parchment paper and then fill with pie weights or dried beans.
- Bake in the center of the oven for about 15 minutes. Remove the parchment and weights, and return the pastry shell to the oven to bake until golden, 15 minutes longer. Let cool completely. Reduce oven to 350°F.
- To make the filling: Sprinkle one-third of the mozzarella over the bottom of the pastry shell.
- Arrange one-third of the tomato slices on top of the cheese.
- Sprinkle with one-third of the basil, oregano, and scallion greens. Repeat this step two more times, then drizzle with the oil.
- Bake until the mozzarella has melted, 15 to 20 minutes, and serve hot or at room temperature on fresh baby arugula with grape tomatoes.

Founded by Pat Robertson, the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) and its Chief Counsel Jay Sekulow quickly established themselves as key players in the right-wing movement, litigating a variety of cases at all levels, including the Supreme Court. The ACLJ has been particularly active in fighting marriage equality and defending the Pledge of Allegiance, while Sekulow has maintained very close ties to the Bush White House and played a central role in pushing for the confirmation of Supreme Court Justices Roberts and Alito.

BuzzFeed's Lester Feder is out with an investigative report today on the rise of Europe's own homegrown Religious Right. Feder cites People For the American Way's research into funding going from American groups to the European Right — including from Alliance Defending Freedom, the American Center for Law and Justice, and, surprisingly, the fringe anti-choice group Personhood USA — but also notes that a lot of the movement's energy is travelling in the opposite direction across the Atlantic.

Flashback: When The Religious Right And Republicans Quashed An Investigation Into Right-Wing Extremism

Reports that the married couple who shot and killed two police officers, a bystander and themselves in Las Vegas this week were motivated by right-wing extremism have highlighted one of the more troubling trends in even the "mainstream" Right — denial that violent right-wing extremism even exists. As Brian mentioned earlier today, a conservative pundit's claim on the same day as the shooting that far-right violence is a "complete and total bogeyman" echoes the objections the attacks that many right-wing groups lobbed at a 2009 Department of Homeland...

As RWW and others have documented, American Religious Right figures are part of a global anti-equality movement.

The law provides for fines, "correctional labor" and up to three years behind bars for "public actions expressing obvious disrespect toward society and committed to abuse the religious feelings of believers."

Even though the right-wing conspiracy theory about President Obama handing over control of the Internet to foreign powers has been completely discredited, the myth continues to survive among conservative activists and Republicans in Congress, who have seized upon the debunked claim to attack the Obama administration.

As we have noted several times, right-wing groups are falsely claiming that the Obama administration has relinquished control of the Internet to a United Nations-controlled group. In fact, quite the opposite is true: Politico reports that the administration rebuffed calls from Russia and China to give authority to the United Nations-led International Telecommunication Union, and instead completed a sixteen year transition of Internet oversight to a US-backed nonprofit. Naturally, Obama critics are now alleging that the president did the opposite of what actually occurred and handed over... MORE >

Need more proof that right-wing activists will keep pushing their conspiracy theories even after they have been thoroughly and decisively debunked? Take the case of the recent announcement that the federal government will relinquish oversight of the Internet to a US-backed nonprofit, which has prompted conservatives to claim that the United Nations, China, and Islamic governments will now seize control of the Internet. As it turns out, the transition has been in the making for 16 years and actually stifles attempts to increase the authority of the UN-led International Telecommunication Union... MORE >

He writes about serial killers' behaviors and the research—from the FBI's original work to more recent models—that informs the law enforcement professionals charged with profiling, catching, and studying them. A real bonus: Dr. Bonn's correspondence with Dennis Rader (BTK or "Bind, Torture, Kill") for its insight into the mind of an especially chilling murderous psychopath. As such, it is a stark reminder that, irrespective of any deceptively benign appearances to the contrary, "they" are never like "us."

BEIRUT: Truce deals promoted by the government as "national reconciliation" – but condemned by the opposition as enforced surrender – are beginning to fray as a result of disagreements over the terms, and retribution by paramilitaries loyal to President Bashar Assad.
There are now over 70 local cease-fires being negotiated across Syria, a U.N. official told The Daily Star. The uptick in the number of local truces, especially around Damascus, coincided with the opening of peace talks in Geneva and a Security Council resolution to provide humanitarian aid that was unanimously agreed Saturday.
But besieged civilian and rebel forces are divided over the agreements, which opposition figures say represent a "surrender or starve campaign" by the regime, insincere attempts to show the international community that the regime is interested in cooperation, and an excuse to retake previously inaccessible rebel-held areas.
A highly publicized truce deal brokered in January in Moadamieh, southeast of Damascus, under a suffocating government siege for over 18 months until January, broke down Sunday.
Opposition activists say the single point of entry and exit from the town has been closed for four days, after aid was channeled from the town to neighboring Daraya, where rebel Free Syrian Army forces have until now resisted a cease-fire deal despite being under heavy government air and artillery bombardment.
Activists from both neighborhoods say rebels refused to hand over weapons in Moadamieh, citing unacceptable conditions and the threat of retribution from pro-Assad paramilitaries. When opposition activists directed food delivered to Moadamieh under the deal to the besieged suburb of Daraya, they say, the aid was stopped and the entrance to Moadamieh closed.
Army troops fired heavy weapons into the town Monday, said opposition activist Hussam Zyadah, with the Violations and Documentation Center in Daraya, but there have so far been no casualties.
Qusai Zakarya, an opposition activist who handed himself in to regime forces under the agreement in Moadamieh and was released last week, told The Daily Star the regime has closed off the city because the FSA refused to hand over weapons in return for aid.
"I don't think the regime will try to go in or strike really hard because they tried so hard to make Moadamieh an example. They know all eyes are watching."
He said the condition that the rebels hand over their weapons was "unacceptable," because they do not trust loyalist militias to abide by the agreement.
"The condition that we hand over our weapons is a sign of the real intention of the regime.
"These weapons are our only guarantee of safety and the regime has a lot of firepower and a lot of help, so why should we hand over ours?"
"In Daraya there is heavy attack and so far there has been no acceptance of the truce by the FSA. The pact that the rebels made from Moadamieh was to smuggle food into Daraya from the aid that was sent to Moadamieh. It was not right for us not to feed the families in Daraya who are starving – we would be worse than the regime if we didn't," he said.
"At the end of the day they are asking us in Moadamieh to help them starve Daraya and make the siege there even worse. This shows there is no goodwill."
Agreement on the truces varies according to the FSA's strength and resources, as well as geography, activists say.
Yabroud, in central Syria, came under heavy attack in the last few weeks by government forces backed by Lebanon's Hezbollah when rebels, including jihadists from the Nusra Front, refused to surrender their arms.
"In areas where the FSA is not so highly coordinated and where starvation is being used as a weapon by the regime, there is a lot of pressure from the civilians to accept the terms, Zakarya said.
Another FSA source said truces were more likely to be resisted in areas where the FSA has greater firepower and resources.
"Western Ghouta is not as organized, while eastern Ghouta has greater firepower, meaning they can still resist. In the western Ghouta they will try to rest and reorganize in the hope that support in the form of military aid comes from the south," the source said, referring to reports that the U.S. has approved arms delivery to the rebels in the south of the country through the Jordanian border.
"In Homs, too, they still have good men," he said.
Hundreds of demonstrators rallied in the Old City of Homs last week against a recent U.N.-brokered truce to allow food in and civilians out, describing it as a conspiracy aimed at ending the revolution and a "humiliation."
There, the deal to allow aid into the town almost broke down on the second day, after the U.N. and Syrian Arab Red Crescent convoy was fired upon. Red Crescent and U.N. officials blamed members of the pro-Assad National Defense Force, which opposed the deal because it helped the rebels, and attacked the aid delivery teams in retribution.
The role of paramilitaries in implementing or obstructing the deals is a challenge that opposition activists say is a test of the regime's real intent to pursue a program of national reconciliation.
Over the course of the 3-year-old war, the Syrian regime has increasingly relied on paramilitary groups, often with a distinct sectarian identity, to man checkpoints and guard neighborhoods.
Coming from Iraq, Iran or Syria's religious minorities, the groups are often ideologically motivated and don't fall easily under the regular army's chain of command.
"In many of the areas under siege there are paramilitary or militia forces that break the terms of the truce, for example shooting U.N. vehicles in Homs," said Khaled Saleh, head of the media office for the opposition National Coalition.
"This points to either of two scenarios; either Assad has lost power to control his own forces which further indicates his lost legitimacy to rule the country; or, it indicates that he has secretly allowed these forces to violate truce terms because in fact he does not want peace and is simply putting up pretenses to appease international pressure to bring aid into besieged areas."
Zakarya agreed: "The ugly and terrifying reality is that the regime can't control its militias and that is why I am against the truces," he said. "I am for them on one condition: that we are allowed to keep our weapons.
The scale of death and destruction has generated deep mistrust and the threat of retribution is high on both sides, Zakarya said.
"We will have to reconcile sooner or later. But revenge is something to think about from both sides. People who lost a lot of family in government shelling, chemical attacks, who are under siege, are in no way willing to negotiate with the regime. Not in a million years."
"People look toward the truces as treason," said Zyadah, adding that a lack of coordination between rebel forces in different areas had given the rebels decreased leverage in negotiating the terms of the truces.
"If there were coordination and communications between the cities from the beginning of the revolution, we would be victorious by now. This is a main reason for the bad conditions," he said.
The experiences in Moadamieh and Babila, where hundreds of evacuees were reportedly arrested, are partly why the terms were being rejected in Daraya, he said.
Rebels in Barzeh, a neighborhood in northern Damascus, were able to gain greater leverage over the negotiations, given its strategic location, demanding the release of detainees and the retaining of their weapons.
FSA fighters now man checkpoints alongside the government forces, co-administering the area and thousands of families have returned home.
But even there, tensions are high.
Zeyad al-Shami, the spokesman for the FSA media center in Barzeh, predicted the truce will collapse if the regime failed to comply with agreed terms.
"The truce in Barzeh is not so bad; there have been no new detainees, nor the withdrawal of the army. But the regime is still playing with time, procrastinating and postponing. They promised us that some of prisoners should be out in two days, but this was two weeks ago."
Moreover, the appearance of Hezbollah fighters at checkpoints has increased tensions.
"This was clear provocation and proof that they want the truce to fail," Shami said.
"They will say that it was the FSA who broke it," he said, adding that it was just a way to enter the previously-inaccessible area.
Bouts of violence and retribution were recorded in Babila, Qudsaya and other areas this week, in what may bode badly for any long-term reconciliation efforts.
For the coalition's Saleh, the regime has faced mounting pressure to allow humanitarian assistance into besieged areas, after carrying out a "kneel or starve" policy for more than a year.
The truce option, he continued, is a "new, evil plot designed to demonstrate the regime's willingness to negotiate an end to the siege, while finding new ways to continue to terrorize the people and maintain control."
"The regime has ensured that the proposed truces provide very little relief or freedom to the people; rather, they just work to reinstate regime control over these liberated areas," Saleh added.

The Nintendo DS doesn't need reviews. It's the biggest selling game system in the world right now and is number 1 in every global marketing territory. It was the first games console to successfully appeal to children, parents, grand parents AND gamers.I've owned a lot of hand helds and home consoles and whilst I still feel a bizarre emotional attachment to the GBA SP I have to concede that this is probably the best console I have ever owned. The touch screen just works as a control system and it's the key to the machines cross-generational appeal. Even my own reluctant Games Widow enjoys Brain Training, the new Tetris and Wario Ware. She said she likes that she doesn't have to learn what the buttons do if she wants to play on the DS: it's instinctive.For gamers there are some absolute classic titles available. The DS entries into the Zelda and Mario Kart franchises are among the best both series have ever offered. Sonic and Bleach are much better on the DS then their home console equivalents and Elite Beat Agents is possibly the best music game yet released.Also the DS is the only handheld system currently on the market with a battery life that will see you through a transatlantic flight. My DS also holds a charge much better then my PSP. After a month without touching it my DS still had several hours of power but my PSP runs flat when left alone for a few days.The DS is quite possibly the best system Nintendo have ever made. It certainly has an excellent library of games that will provide years worth of fun for kids and adults alike. I recommend this to anyone of all ages.

Way too strong and mature. The body lotion is better. But this one is not wearable tome. It is moderately expensive but the bottle is a masterpiece. I think the only way to describe this perfume is NOT LIGHT. It is pretty but it needs to be diluted down. It is nothing special. I find it rather generic. Having said that I would not turn down a free bottle and I have turned down many free bottles.

I'm torn... On the one side I do like this scent a lot. It's sweet, very feminine and a bit on the heavy side (which is a good thing in my book), but still very wearable for both day and night. On the other side it smells a little too much like other perfumes I've had, it has some Angel in it, and some others of which I cannot remember the name right now (sorry, I'm getting on a bit ;) ). Also it doesn't seem to last..? Well at least not on me :(...

I like this scent a lot because it is sweet without being cloying. Two spritzes is all I need to achieve a moderate effect. This scent is very feminine. It reminds me a little bit of Hanae Mori's perfume (but is about half the price). It is sweet and powdery. I like this for daytime or evening wear. It transitions well from daytime use to nighttime use.

This is the third scent i've reviewed in the little contest i have with myself to find the sweetest scent possible. La Vie Est Belle has been my absolute favorite to wear. Also, it's the tattoo Casey Anthony had....Belle Vita...The Beautiful Life. It's such a simple, sweet little scent that has been done before but it is so beautiful and naive. It doesnt smell like cotton candy or a cup cake or anything like that but it is sweet. The praline, vanilla, tonka bean and patchouli. The little flowers like orange blossom and jasmine spring to life and add a wonderful little floralcy to the mix to. The bottle and box elegant and do the fragrance justice too. Also, towards the end of the day yesterday i noticed a peach-like scent. I checked the notes and peach was not a listed note but i think it might have been the pear or black currant i was smelling. La Vie Est Belle is not a childish little fragrance like Pink Sugar or Fantasy. It's just a beautiful fragrance is all. I just finished my bottle and i will be sad i wont be able to wear La Vie Est Belle until i can get another bottle which i most definitely will be doing. I have tons of fragrances that i like to wear and i dont consider any of them a "signature" scent but this is the closest that would come to a signature scent for me. Definitely not the sweetest of the three but i've still got Fantasy to go. LOL

This is the only Lancôme fragrance that I enjoy.
I love the gourmand notes, the waif of dense candy-vanilla, the play against the patchouli -- it feeds my inner hippie in an elegant way.
La Vie Est Belle isn't a sophisticated fragrance -- it's still not in league with some of the big perfume-design houses (I am thinking the exclusive editions of Chanel and Tom Ford fragrances). It is closer to Prada's "Candy," though not as intensely carnival like in it's playfulness. For Lancôme, though, it's a huge step up -- their reliance on over floral mishmashes usually sends me reeling.
La Vie Est Belle is pretty and sexy and a wonderful move into playful and delicious, the notes distinct and warm, while nicely blending the floral and gourmand.
And the bottle's charming and pretty.
A happy -- and I mean that in the lighthearted and spring like romance that this fragrance evokes --- repurchase.

The perfume smells great on paper ( like in the magazine ads), after months of wearing this it just didn't go with my body chemistry. It smells like old lady and and alcohol chemical like scent when sprayed into the air.

La Vie est Belle is almost exactly the same scent as Flowerbomb (which everyone knows is really a misnamed gourmand) but much more smooth and beautiful. The patchouli is not too heavy-handed and the praline and vanilla notes round out the fruit beautifully. Something about Flowerbomb is much more synthetic and sharp. LVEB is a sophisticated gourmand that feels incredibly sexy and sultry. It's not cloyingly sweet but it has great longevity and makes for an excellent evening scent. The bottle is a little lackluster, but other than that, it's a lovely scent.

At first this scent was amazing! I had a sample and used it for a few weeks to see how it worked with my body chemistry and it was great and was long lasting, so I bought the bottle. However, I've had it for less than half a year now and I've noticed the colour has changed and it smells TERRIBLE! and its not that my body chemistry has changed because it smells terrible in the bottle too. I'm so disappointed by this product :(

LVEB is a strong powdery gourmand. I was initially wary of trying it out because of the patchouli, which I can not usually endure. So many perfumes were ruined for me with the inclusion of that dreaded patch note. Here, the vanilla and praline add just the right amount of sugary sweetness to rob the patchouli of its earthy edges, and the base emerges as a minty cool confection following a top and middle of the thickest vanilla ice cream sprinkled with the ripest blueberries (probably the currant). I like the iris, responsible for lending the scent an elegant, formal touch. I could not really detect the other florals though.
If sugar is not like crack for you, then step away from this bottle. The staying power is tenacious, and you will receive compliments without a doubt. La vie is easy to like, since it follows in the footsteps of the massively popular Flowerbomb and Coco Mademoiselle. Certainly, it is not unique, but I think it marries patchouli and praline very well for an attractive price point. Lancome perfumers knew what they were doing when they reinterpreted a familiar formula. Much like a romance novel, the patchouli gourmand has a set recipe, but LVEB has enough character to be more than a modern garden variety scent thanks to the understated glamor of iris, which for better or worse is becoming increasingly utilized in popular department store releases as a way to compete with niche houses. But whatever La vie lacks in olfactory innovation, it more than compensates with its welcoming, winning personality. Got to find that scarf around the neck of the bottle just adorable. Notes: pear, black currant, orange blossom, iris, jasmine, patchouli, vanilla, tonka bean, praline.

A truly great show1/28/2014
A truly great show about a seriously sad subject. The manufacture of drugs can hardly be thought of as light-hearted, but the show succeeds in telling the story of a man at the end of his rope, needing to support his family but struck with a terminal affliction. It is an interesting tale of a man with a talent. He becomes extremely successful in the manufacture and sale of methamphetamine. It isn't a show for the family... well maybe for the family where a lesson is being taught.
