Recommend: No
I was uncomfortable sending a card to a casual friend with the "I love you" phrase on the front even though it was part of the scripture. The way it was high-lighted made me uncomfortable with sending it for my SS class. The remaining cards in the set were fine.

Mary, the mother of Jesus, was blessed among women, but she was not the only one, and she was not the only Mary to be blessed by Jesus,
"Now when He rose early on the first day of the week, He appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom He had cast seven demons" (Mark 16:9Mark 16:9
English: World English Bible - WEB
9 Now when he had risen early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons.
WP-Bible plugin).
This exceedingly grateful woman devoted herself to the Lord Jesus Christ, for He had cast seven demons out of her.
Other women had gone with Mary Magdalene to the tomb of Jesus, but after an angel sent them away, Jesus later singled out this godly and holy woman to appear to her first.
If you understand from what Jesus has delivered you, then devote yourself to Him entirely, and in so doing, He will reward you in ways you may never have imagined, just as He did with Mary Magdalene.

What we do

In 1997, a survey of yellowhammers in Northern Ireland indicated that there had been a 65% decline in numbers since 1991 (Donaghy 1998).
As a consequence, the yellowhammer is red-listed on both the Irish and UK lists of Birds of Conservation Concern (Newton et al. 1999; Gregory et al. 2002.
An estimated 5,000 pairs of yellowhammers remain in NI, and the species is now completely absent from Co. Fermanagh. A whole suite of seed-eating farmland birds including linnet, tree sparrow and skylark have followed a similar downward spiral. As a result, the RSPB set up the Yellowhammer Recovery Project in 2006 to try and reverse these critical declines in yellowhammers and other seed-eating farmland birds.
In Northern Ireland, a Species Action Plan (SAP) has been drafted by the Northern Ireland Environment Agency (NIEA – then called EHS) for yellowhammers (EHS 2005). This SAP provides a framework for recovery and includes a series of actions to achieve specific targets.
To achieve the aims of the SAP, the RSPB lauched a targeted Yellowhammer Recovery Project (YRP) to help deliver many of the actions in the SAP. As statutory bodies, DARD and NIEA are listed against many of the actions in the SAP. The yellowhammer is one of many priority species for the RSPB. As we offer specialist advice, and having carried out successful recovery projects for priority bird species in other parts of the UK, we were delighted to be able to undertake the YRP partnership with our government partners.
Now that we know how well these arable options can work when targeted with advice, we want to see the project roll out further to secure better fortunes for yellowhammers and other seed eaters across NI.
Results from the CMS winter arable option scale work in winter 2005/06 showed that seed-eating farmland birds were using the CMS arable options in preference to areas of land not in CMS arable options. The results from the study of the CMS summer arable options in 2006 were less conclusive. Yellowhammers and other seed-eating farmland birds were not using the rough grass margins (RGM) or conservation cereals as expected.
Further research into the RGMs began in winter 07, when the Project Officer started monitoring the effectiveness of sward management (cutting/grazing) in opening up the swards in RGM's increasing accessibility. Funding is still to be sought for further research into Conservation Cereals.
From the start of the project, these farmers have been encouraged by the Project Officer to take up CMS arable options. The Project officer made no advisory contact with the 22 control farmers throughout the course of the project.
In the case of the red-listed yellowhammer, populations increased by over 50% at NICMS farms. However they also went up (by 21%) at unmanaged farms (control sites), demonstrating that the well-managed NICMS farms were not just pulling in birds from other areas, but were actually benefitting the wildlife in the wider countryside as well.
A more detailed examination revealed that this increase at NICMS sites was most evident at the most newly established sites (since 2006) at which the greatest levels of management advice was provided - at these sites yellowhammers increased by a remarkable 79%.

Video conversion: iPod vs Apple TV format
Ask iLounge offers readers the opportunity to get answers to their iPod-, iPhone-, iPad-, iTunes-, or Apple TV-related questions from a member of the iLounge editorial team. We'll answer several questions here each week, and of course, you can always get help with more immediate concerns from the iLounge Discussion Forums. Submit your questions for consideration using our Ask iLounge Submit Form. We reserve the right to edit questions for grammar, spelling, and length.
Q: I'm using EyeTV 2.4 and an Apple TV and am wondering if there is really any advantage to converting standard definition TV shows using the "Apple TV" setting instead of the "iPod" setting. They look the same to me either way, even though the Apple TV conversion produces twice as large of a file, so what's the point?
- Eric
A: In reality, there is probably little difference in converting most standard broadcast TV content for Apple TV versus iPod, although this may be somewhat dependent upon the source material.
Standard North American television signals use 480 visible lines of screen resolution (which is what the "480" represents in 480i and 480p video standards). While analog TV signals do not have a concept of horizontal resolution, a standard television show when recorded onto a computer will produce a 640x480 resolution frame size.
You'll note that this is the same resolution as the video format supported by the iPod itself, which means when you're converting a video for the iPod using any of the more recent conversion tools, you're getting a 640x480 frame size anyway (although we should note that some older conversion tools may still use the older iPod format of 320x240).
Although the Apple TV supports resolutions of up to 1280x720, if your source material is still only 640x480 (which any standard definition TV broadcast will be), then the converted video will still only be 640x480, since none of the existing conversion tools will actually do any kind of up conversion on the video.
Therefore, no resolution is gained by converting to Apple TV format. What does increase, however, is the bit-rate of the video stream. The Apple TV is capable of handling more than twice the bit-rate that the iPod is, and video converted to Apple TV with most encoders is encoded at bit-rates of up to 3000kbps. Whether or not this makes a difference will be entirely dependent upon the source material, and most analog TV content are not going to benefit from a higher bit-rate. In our own tests with newer shows from some of the better analog TV stations, the higher bit-rate resulted in slightly smoother video playback, however these differences were not really noticeable except under close observation.
One other factor to consider when encoding content is whether you actually want to watch it on your iPod. Naturally, content converted for Apple TV will not be viewable on the current line of 5G iPods, although we're certainly hoping that Apple will raise the bar in this area with the next generation iPod model.
However, the bottom line is that if you're encoding content from standard definition TV broadcasts, there is probably very little advantage in converting this content for Apple TV versus iPod, particularly when you consider the additional storage requirements for the larger files.
Note that this does not apply to DVDs, however. Even a standard-definition DVD will benefit greatly from the higher bit-rate available on the Apple TV. Further, since most standard-definition DVDs are in a widescreen format, you're actually only getting a 640x360 image in iPod format due to the aspect ratio, which is a reduction in the overall DVD resolution (720x480). On the other hand, the Apple TV format will take advantage of the full resolution of the source DVD (720x480), and encode it with a higher bit-rate. Although the differences were still not dramatic (particularly in light of what the Apple TV is actually capable of), it made enough of a difference in our own tests to sacrifice iPod viewing compatibility in favor of the better output quality on the Apple TV.

Atenolol better than Propanolol Doctor gave me Inderal first, but it *gave* me severe migraines instead of preventing them. Even Tenormin at 25 mg is too strong for me (may give me a migraine), so I split it between two days.
Like most migraine preventives in my experience, it works by inducing a mild migraine that short-circuits the real thing. No pain, no gain.

In an effort to deliver collaborative tools and create a stronger Web presence for its stakeholders, Evergreen Public Schools in Washington is moving its Web presence onto the Schoolwires platform.
For the project, Evergreen will adopt Schoolwires' Centricity and Synergy tools. Centricity is a hosted, on-demand solution that provides collaborative capabilities, such as file sharing and communications. Synergy is designed to allow users to create, edit, and share presentations, documents, and other types of media.
"Our current Web site and associated tools are difficult to use, and it doesn't provide us with the applications we need to create a polished and attractive Web presence," said Frank Decker, educational technology coordinator at Evergreen Public Schools, in a prepared statement. "The Schoolwires platform will give us increased functionality and flexibility so that we can communicate our district's brand and attract new families and quality employees, while increasing our communications with our existing constituents. And the solution will cost less annually than our current one."
He continued: "The Centricity solution is easy enough for non-tech-savvy teachers to create Web sites and teaching applications, yet it provides the tools for podcasts, flash content and other applications that more sophisticated users demand. Synergy will provide additional electronic tools for teachers to further engage students in the classroom and after hours, all in a secure and easily accessible environment."
Evergreen Public Schools serves more than 25,000 K-12 students and employs about 3,000 faculty and staff. The district comprises 21 elementary schools, six middle schools, five high schools, and four alternative centers.

2% spandex
Member since
these jeans are very comfortable and great for skating because of the 2% spandex: it's stretchy, but because of this the jeans are a little flimsy feeling (thin) and doesn't feel as durable and thick as a 100% cotton jean. the color isn't as grey as an elephant's skin. the color of these jeans are "light" black
bailey miller

it depends what color your talking about, because i own the gray/blue, and they are indeed very grey.

Sussex will look to press home their significant advantage on the final day against Lancashire after dominating again at Old Trafford.
The LV= County Championship Division One's second-placed side hold a 323-run lead after dismissing their hosts for 191 thanks to four wickets from Steve Magoffin.
That left Lancashire 107 behind on first innings and by stumps on the third day they found themselves facing the prospect of trying to save the game, although the Manchester weather may yet lend a helping hand.
The Red Rose county resumed on 157 for six with Tom Smith and Alex Davies well set having already shared a stand of 77.
However, they advanced that by only five runs before Smith edged Jon Lewis behind one short of his half-century.
Davies lofted Ashar Zaidi over mid-off for his ninth boundary of the innings and his maiden first-class half century, coming off 101 balls.
However, he mistimed a drive off Luke Wright into a similar area and departed for 59.
Simon Kerrigan's over-ambition against Zaidi saw him stumped and Kyle Jarvis followed soon after leg before to leave captain Glen Chapple 10 not out.
Lancashire needed early wickets to prevent the game getting away from them and Chris Nash duly obliged just after lunch when he pulled Chapple to Smith at midwicket.
When Luke Wells edged to slip the lead was 163 but first-innings century-maker Michael Yardy and Rory Hamilton-Brown extended that advantage to 205 with Sussex 98 for two at tea.
Paul Horton's second catch at slip, more spectacular than the first, ended the threat from Yardy on 45 and, after a brief interlude because of bad light, Kerrigan bowled Hamilton-Brown for 44 after he had put on 49 with Matt Machan (44 not out).
Even the departure of Wright, leaving Sussex 216 for five at the close, was little consolation for the hosts who face a difficult day on Wednesday.

The Subaru XT is a car you won't see often in most parts of the country, but Denver junkyards have tremendous quantities of old Subarus and so I see them on a regular basis here. So far, this series has had this '85 XT Turbo, this '91 XT, this '91 XT6, and now today's '87 XT. (Read More…)
Tag: 1987
Chrysler did pretty well selling Mitsubishi-derived products in North America, but the only platform from their European operations that was a hit over here was the Simca-based Omnirizon. These cars had a lengthy production run and you still see a fair number in wrecking yards these days; in this series so far, we've had this '78 Horizon, this '83 Dodge Rampage Prospector, this '84 Turismo, this '85 Shelby Charger, this '86 Omni, and this this Shelby-ized '86 Omni GLH. I'd really like to find a final-year-of-production 1990 model Omnirizon, but so far this '87 is the newest example I've seen in the wrecking yard. (Read More…)
The last time we saw a Toyota Master Ace Junkyard Find was when I discovered this super-elaborate '85 Space Van art car in Northrn California last year. I've always admired these mid-engined machines, with their unkillable pushrod fours and goofy Mars Base looks. Here's one I spotted in a Denver wrecking yard a couple weeks back. (Read More…)
Chrysler scored big in the North American market with their K-car-based minivan in the early 1980s, and the Japanese automotive manufacturers wanted to cash in on the demand for front-wheel-drive (or four-wheel-drive) small van-like machines. Toyota, Nissan, and Mitsubishi brought over the Master Ace, Vanette, and Delica, respectively, and you could get all sorts of little Japanese wagons as well, but nothing seemed able to pry many sales away from the Caravan. So, Nissan took their top-heavy-looking Prairie, slapped some badges from the unrelated Stanza on it, and shipped a bunch across the Pacific. Few bought the Stanza Wagon, which makes them very rare Junkyard Finds. Here's one I found in Denver a couple weeks back. (Read More…)
Since I've built (and daily-driven) what I consider to be an art car, I'm not against the concept of an art car. The problem is that you get 100 random-beater-with-army-men-hot-glued-all-over art cars for every brilliant Sashimi Tabernacle Choir. Because affixing random crap all over a cheap car is an accepted route to a certain segment of San Francisco Bay Area artistic circles, I've found a fair number of these things in Northern California wrecking yards. Here's the first turbocharged art car I've seen in my travels. (Read More…)
Will the faux-woodgrain Country Squire Junkyard Finds never stop? Not if I can keep finding them! We started this sequence with this '76, then followed up with this '77 and this '86. Today's Squire is another Panther platform "woodie" wagon, Detroit's traditional rear-drive family hauler for the late 1980s. (Read More…)
Remember the Raider? No, you don't. Nobody remembers the Raider, because this one that I found yesterday at a self-service wrecking yard near Denver was the only Raider Dodge ever sold. (Read More…)
North Americans bought the post-Chevette Isuzu Gemini under several marques. There was the Spectrum, sold as a Chevrolet, a Geo, and a confusing Chevrolet/Geo. In Canada, you could get a Gemini badged as a Pontiac Sunburst. And, of course, there was the Isuzu I-Mark, a destined-for-China's-steel-industry example of which I've found in a San Francisco Bay Area self-service wrecking yard. (Read More…)
How long does the typical Toyota Cressida last? Based on my recent surge in wrecking-yard Cressida sightings (this '92, this '84, this '89, and this '80) after decades of the Cressida being a once-every-six-months junkyard catch, I'm going to say that your typical Cressida lasts about 25 years, give or take a half-decade. Part of this longevity is due to the fact that few Cressidas are driven by leadfooted hoons (and those few have all had manual-trans swaps done by drifter types) and part is due to Toyota's frighteningly good engineering and build quality during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Here's a California Cressida that just made it to the quarter-century mark before its last owner gave up on it. (Read More…)
The fifth-gen Chevy Nova was built at California's NUMMI plant for the 1985 through 1988 model years, prior to becoming the Geo and then the Chevrolet Prizm. The Nova was really a rebadged AE82 Corolla, and so most of them managed to survive into the turn of the 21st century. By now, however, a NUMMI Nova is a rare sight; we saw a trustifarian '87 hatchback in California last winter, and now this well-preserved sedan has appeared in a Denver self-service yard.

New NASA-Funded Forecast System Helps Transoceanic Flights Avoid Storms
WASHINGTON, Dec. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- A new NASA-funded prototype system developed by the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) of Boulder, Colo., now is providing weather forecasts that can help flights avoid major storms as they travel over remote ocean regions. The eight-hour forecasts of potentially dangerous atmospheric conditions are designed for pilots, air traffic controllers and others involved in transoceanic flights.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20081007/38461LOGO)
The NCAR-based system combines satellite data and computer weather models to produce maps of storms over much of the world's oceans. The system is based on products that NCAR has developed to alert pilots and air traffic controllers about storms and related hazards, such as turbulence and lightning, over the continental United States. Development of the forecasts was spurred in part by the 2009 crash of Air France Flight 447, which encountered a complex of thunderstorms over the Atlantic Ocean.
The system was funded by NASA's Applied Sciences Program, which supports efforts to discover and demonstrate innovative and practical uses of NASA Earth science and satellite observations. NCAR worked with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Lincoln Laboratory, the Naval Research Laboratory, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison to create the system."These new forecasts can help fill an important gap in our aviation system," said NCAR's Cathy Kessinger, lead researcher on the project. "Pilots have had limited information about atmospheric conditions as they fly over the ocean, where conditions can be severe. By providing them with a picture of where significant storms will be during an eight-hour period, the system can contribute to both the safety and comfort of passengers on flights." The forecasts, which continue to be tested and modified, cover most of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, where NCAR has real-time access to geostationary satellite data. The forecasts are updated every three hours.

The football coach and university president are removed in a massive shakeup at the school Wednesday night.
More: ocregister.com/sports I ocvarsity.com I Facebook
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — Joe Paterno was fired by the Penn State board of trustees Wednesday night despite saying he would retire as coach after the football season ended, brought down by the growing furor over the handling of child sex abuse allegations against an assistant coach.
Penn State president Graham Spanier was also ousted.
"I am disappointed with the board of trustees' decision, but I have to accept it," the 84-year-old Paterno said in a statement. "A tragedy occurred, and we all have to have patience to let the legal process proceed."
Paterno, the winningest coach in major college football history, learned of the board's decision at the end of a day that began with his decision to finish out his 46th season and leave.
It was not to be.
The dismissal prompted thousands of students to gather about two blocks from the campus, many chanting, "We want Joe! We want Joe!" Witnesses said some rocks and bottles were thrown, a lamppost was toppled and a news van was knocked over, its windows kicked out.
About 100 police wearing helmets and carrying batons were on hand. There were no reports of arrests.
"The university is much larger than its athletic teams," board vice chair John Surma said during a packed news conference.
Paterno and Spanier were informed by telephone of the unanimous decisions to remove them.
"We were unable to find a way to do that in person without causing further distraction," Surma said.
Defensive coordinator Tom Bradley will serve as interim coach while Rodney Erickson will be the interim school president. The university scheduled a news conference with Bradley for Thursday morning.
"The Penn State board of trustees tonight decided it is in the best interest of the university to have a change in leadership to deal with the difficult issues that we are facing," Surma said.
"The past several days have been absolutely terrible for the entire Penn State community. But the outrage that we feel is nothing compared to the physical and psychological suffering that allegedly took place."
Asked what Paterno did wrong, Surma said: "I can't characterize that. We thought because of the difficulties that have engulfed our university, it was necessary to make changes."
Speaking outside his home, Paterno said: "Right now, I'm not the coach. And I've got to get used to that. After 61 years, I've got to get used to it. I appreciate it. Let me think it through."
His wife, Sue, was teary-eyed as she blew kisses to about 100 students on the lawn. "You're all so sweet. And I guess we have to go beat Nebraska without being there. We love you all. Go Penn State," she said.

Well had the same experience today for no app rent reason my net is fine. league just has such a bad client and all they do is release champs for the $$$ instead of working on the problems at hand.
Junior Member
I have the same problem and it seems that this new update made things a bit worse. My FPS used to be about 50-60 and now it's about 10, maybe 15-20 if I'm lucky. That's not good enough, as the people I play with hate lag and kept saying I have a wooden PC. What will they say now? Dx
Senior Member
This has been happening to me every since late November. Periodically throughout the game my game freezes for a second or two and then everything goes back to normal. During that time it accepts my input, and everyone else is continuing with what ever it is they were doing. It seems to only be affecting me, I know quite a few people this also happens to. This has made playing ranked games pretty much impossible, I've lost a few games to this, and I don't think I will be playing any more ranked until this is fixed.
NA server playing from Toronto, Canada.
Same Problem. Con on Riot, I have faith in you. Doesn't seem to be a problem on our end.
This is getting really ridiculous. There are more than enough people complaining about this problem among other things. Stop pumping out new content for two seconds and fix your broken game.
Same thing has happened to me. It's quite frustrating
I get the same issue. Random freezes during gameplay. Does it with no other game except LoL.
11 Pages and not a single dev response. A testament to Riot's pathetic CS.
Rocket Cat
A week and a half. Come on Riot, at least acknowledge us.
I've been getting this a lot as well, except I often d/c (it gives me the 'reconnecting' message ingame) during lagspikes.
The main issue I have with this, is that it feels completely and utterly random. I'll be able to play 5 games in a row without a single lag spike and then all of a sudden I'll just d/c all game and have my entire team angry at me in the 6th game. If I was getting lagspikes all the time it wouldn't be so bad, because then I could just not play till the issue was resolved, but now I feel like I can play when I can't and that I can't play when I can, and I got banned for idling in games for it.
In hindsight, I probably shouldn't have played at all :|
I've been having issues where I just get stuck in place, or run forward uncontrollably for very long periods of time. My ping stays constant at 122 and my FPS is always 60, but this is absolutely infuriating as it always results in me feeding kills or botching good opportunities to make any sort of play. I can't play the game with such random conditions costing me, and more importantly, my teammates' dearly.
One instance I'm chasing down a kill in bot lane, and then the next thing I know, I'm running uncontrollably into their turret, and dying in the most embarrassing fashion possible. Or getting stuck in place, being unable to react to the enemies just wailing on me. I still auto attack, and none of the other champs are behaving strangely, I'm just unable to control my character. I've tried re-installing the game to no success, and I'm not sure whether it's my own internet connection somehow (even though ping stays the same during the freezes), or something in game. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated on the matter.

- 1Dec 17, '13 by Flarei cut my school nursing teeth in a special ed school. It was a challenging and wonderful experience! I loved being able to celebrate the children's victories with them, no matter how small. Working in this school provided me a really strong basis for my public school career.
- 0Jan 5 by rotteluvr31I've been working in this field for 20+ years, although only recently as a nurse. It's the most rewarding job I could ever imagine. I meet so many wonderful people, kids, parents and support staff. All the children surprise me with what they accomplish, because they all have the ability to do something (rollover, smile, talk, walk) that their parents were told they could never do. I never underestimate these kids or their families. They surprise and delight me daily.

I'm not sure whyyyyyyyyy all the gel liners I bought were all dry!!! I actually love coastal scents a lot and so receiving these dry eyeliners was such a massive disappointment.
I'm just hoping I got a bad batch because it would be devastating to think otherwise.

LOL no. Don't buy this. Well actually it is a really good gel liner. I've done my research and it's just as dark as mac fluidline. It lasts and does not crease. Butttt it dries out after like 2 or 3 months. I had to throw mine out and it still had alot of product in it. I was upset.

I got this in Sky Line and I like it a lot. The color is beautiful (a bright royal blue). I couldn't be more pleased with the color, since it's very difficult to find brands that make such gorgeous colors. It's quite creamy and glides on easily. The lasting power is not that long though, about 3-4 hours. But I think my problem is that I have extremely oily lids and nothing seems to stay there, lol.

SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!! Don't buy no matter the price. I got the true black and indigo. These are worse than tarte and stila for consistency. They are dry and not very pigmented. Also the jar was barely half full. If you are looking for a bobbi brown gel eye liner dupe, keep looking because these are a complete waste of money.

I bought Exotic, which on the website looks to be a lovely olive green colour with a golden shimmer.
Don't know what colour it'd be on my skin though, as it was totally dried out when I received it and went straight into the bin.

I have two of the CS gel liners: Stellar and Exotic.
Stellar is a beautiful almost-black charcoal (a little deeper than charcoal or gunmetal grey, though) with shimmer that looks multidimensional in certain lights.
Exotic is a darkened mossy green with a slight golden shimmer. Very pretty. I reached for this one the most out of the two. I used the heck out of it! :)
What I DO like about these liners is the amazing staying power that they have, the nice range of colors they have, and, of course, the price. However, I found that it varies with the amount of product you get in each jar. My Exotic jar was almost filled to the brim, but my Stellar jar had about half that amount (the jar wasnt even filled halfway, and the jars are pretty tiny, compared to many gel liners.) If it was obvious enough for ME to notice, then it's a problem.
I read a lot of complaints about these drying out after as little as a couple weeks, and I read those complaints before I bought them. But I figured I would just use my handy dandy eye drops to save them if they ever dried out on me. Well, these liners were creamy for about a month after I got them. They dried out at the same time, oddly enough. It wasn't to the point where they just separated from the wall of the container. No, they were actually CRUMBLING each time I went to use them, and when I mixed in a couple eyedrops, they were creamy for about a week, and then they dried out again. And it was the worst consistency ever. No product would even pick up onto my liner brush. They became impossible to work with. So I will not be purchasing any more of these liners, because I feel like I wasted my money. Do not recommend at all, but I gave them a 2, because they were good while they lasted.

I got this in Sky Line, which was a GORGEOUS blue. Best blue I have found to date. However, I barely used it, and it was already dried out, and I mean, drier than the Sahara desert. I was really disappointed since the color was perfect.

The Black one I purchased 2 years ago from them was basically dried out upon opening.
I know many love theirs and swear by it....So its definitely QUALITY CONTROL on their part.
They buy these from China by the mass and just send them out randomly. Its a hit and miss with these!!!!!
Since then I finally broke down and bought MAC's BlackTrack and let me tell ya.....I will NEVER BUY ANOTHER BRAND AGAIN.....MAC's Gel liner has lasted me over a year(using it 5 times a week too!) and its still going strong. Just a lil dip lines my whole upper smoothly.
With that said I know that most of you do not want to take that plunge yet. But, girls t all adds up! I wasted soo many $5.00 bills on crap! Just like trying to find dupes on brushes and shadows. It was just wasted money.(though my Synthetic Crease Brush form Coastal Scents is my HG brush and I love it sooooo muches! I can blend my shadows all day and I never get that burning sensation that I can get with my MAC 226 and etc's)
Its a gamble buying these since you may get a bad one. Plus, buying 2 of these is how much a Prestige Brand one almost is! So why waste of your money and spend "any amount" on something that may not be as good as it "could" be.
PS...If you wanna try them anyways.......
You can Buy these on Ebay for under $2.00!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are the EXACT same ones....just like all of their and BhCosmetics finished Palettes!!!! Really!

I really like these!! Beautiful colors, a good texture, and they last a long time. They go on smoothly, and when they dry they are pretty smudge proof! I would say it is comparable to the MAC gel liner! My only complaint is sometimes I get small pieces that drop onto my cheeks and they are too small to see but then a few times my sister has seen it and told me to wipe it off, I do and it makes a long eyeliner streak on my face! I have to keep wiping and work at it to get it off. I would say the flakes come off the brush when applying, because it never gets flakey on my eye.

I have Stellar, Gold Bliss, Boom Boom, Silk White, and Inidgo Blue. As far as colors go here is a breakdown
Stellar - medium iridescent bluish grey with a few sparkles
Gold Bliss - medium cool toned gold - too light for a liner for me but works awesome as a eyeshadow base. My favorite out of the bunch
Boom Boom - medium shimmer brown (a little lighter than Maybelline's gel liner in chocolate
Silk White - I tried to use this as a base but it's too opaque and thick. I use this one very little
Indigo Blue - a very dark blue that turns out bluish black on my fair skin.
Out of all of these I like the Gold Bliss and Boom Boom the best. I have experienced a few issues with them drying out but I just add a few drops of my sweet almond oil, let them set for a day or so, and then blend the colors with the stripped end of a q-tip and they are moist again. I know it's a pain but it's better than throwing them in the trash. As far as wear, I do prefer Maybelline's gel liners as they last much longer but I still get a 1/2 day or more of good wear out of these. To me, they are about equal in wear to E.L.F.'s cream liners. I would definitely buy Gold Bliss again as a base and I would love to try a few more colors.

What are the start/finish times for the event? Really want to go, just got to work out if I need to book accomodation as its a 4hr trip.
Yes Please
Yes please Chris, this has been in my Diary since it was mentioned before xmas/
Add me in as well :)
Office 365... pricing and overview of where MS sees the situation fitting in with existing systems
Windows Server 2008... VDI and other enhancements coming up (R2 SP1?)
System Center Products... including SCVMM and DPM 2010
There is an Ibis hotel right next door to the Novotel where we are staying if you can't stretch to Novotel rates. It's £44 per night as far as I can gather for one person.
Also, if you have any suggestions for topic to be covered, keep 'em coming.
Expanding on my previous post it seems like there's a bit of a shift back towards MS products for utilities that previously we'd go to other suppliers for, namely...
AV... Forefront Client Protection might replace our current Kaspersky product
Backup... DPM 2010 might replace Backup Exec
Spam Filtering... Forefront most likely will replace Messagelabs
There's a nice chunk of savings by bringing those back to MS under Campus licensing but I would like to see a demo environment with the whole lot set up and working. Would be great if MS could show a fully functioning environment built on Hyper-V with the whole package above set up and working smoothly to show those of us looking to shift from existing products.
The main reason I haven't done so already is that I need to be convinced they're stable and match the usability of what we have now and as much as I like setting it all up on my test network I'm a bit pushed for time at the moment so a hands-on demo would be most useful :D
Something like this setup...
- Hyper-V virtualised servers
- SCVMM managing said servers
- DPM 2010 doing backups and maybe a demo of bare metal VM recovery \ brick level restore for Exchange and SQL
- VDI on a Windows 7 client running from Hyper-V with RemoteFX
- SCCM R3 managing the software etc and also managing...
- Forefront Client Security on some desktops
- App-V running virtualised apps e.g. Photoshop
Speaking from a little school's point of view, please can Microsoft be encouraged to talk at our level (primary schools) as well as at the 'big boys' (secondaries). We may not be as exciting in terms of our ambitions and budgets, but we want to benefit too :)
We're talking sites with 100 or less PCs and 300 or less users, pupils and staff combined. (In my case 40PCs, 100 students and 35 staff)... quite often with only 1 (2 at most) servers on site.
Definitely Interested now to find out if I can claim a CPD day or if it's going to be a day off work.
I'm definitely interested. Just need to confirm I can come, as our new build will be finishing around then so may not be able to. No hotel for me though, I can do it via train in a day. :)

Sports New Media specialises in offering integrated social media management services to high-profile sports stars and organisations. It wanted to launch a cloud-based social media management tool to minimise upfront investment and rapidly gain
market share. For its award-winning Syocial media management system, Sports New Media chose Windows Azure, making its service accessible around the clock through the web to more than 70 million fans.
Founded in 2009, Sports New Media works in partnership with sports stars such as Wayne Rooney, Rio Ferdinand, and Boris Becker. It also collaborates with organisations including the Professional Cricketers Association (PCA) in the United Kingdom (U.K.) and
the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA). The company has a customer base of more than 70 million sports fans around the world, growing at a rate of three a second.
The firm wanted to help sports associations and individual stars engage with their fans through social media. Nick Thain, Chief Executive Officer, Sports New Media, says: "Sports New Media is a hybrid technology and media company that manages Facebook pages
and social network presences for its sports clients. Our aim is to connect brands with fans using our cloud-based media management system called Syocial. We created Syocial to automate the process of providing relevant and timely content to fans across social
networks—and to monitor a brand's activity within those networks. We're currently focused on Facebook."
Sports New Media dominates the management of social media campaigns for football in the U.K. and is poised to expand rapidly into other sports. For example, it has recently started working with top athletes across the world to manage their Facebook pages.
The company has won several awards for business innovation, with the Wall Street Journal recently describing it as, "the brightest example of niche marketing technology married to comprehensive brand monitoring services."
Sports New Media chose Windows Azure and SQL Azure as the operating system and database management software for Syocial—helping it manage, moderate, analyse, and publish content to multiple Facebook pages.
Syocial has a range of tools that help companies and athletes engage with their fans while protecting brand integrity. Thain says: "The system is reliable, scalable, and cloud-based. It automatically deletes defamatory content and inappropriate words within
five seconds—and it works 24 hours a day, seven days a week. In addition, Syocial can schedule posts in advance to align with product launches and news announcements in multiple languages and locations."
Syocial uses the Facebook application programming interface to moderate hundreds of thousands of pages and delivers intelligent broadcasting and posting capabilities to its clients. Windows Azure automatically handles network load balancing and failover,
and Syocial dynamically scales to provide continuous availability using Windows Azure Worker roles and SQL Azure to deliver the service.
Thain says: "Syocial provides analytics, so it's easy to see what's happening on fan pages either historically or in real time. It automates the process of providing relevant content to interfaces across social networks and helps monitor a brand's activity
within those networks."
In 2010, Sports New Media was invited by Microsoft to become a BizSpark One company. BizSpark One gives eligible startups technical support, training for key staff, and access to the latest Microsoft software, including an introduction to the Windows Azure
team—particularly valuable for startups in cloud computing.
Sports New Media chose to develop its social media reputation management system with Windows Azure. And, as a Microsoft BizSpark One company, it has been taking advantage of the software provided. The system is robust enough to handle 500,000 new users a
month using the platform-as-a-service model.
Reliable service minimises downtime. Syocial uses Windows Azure as the operating system for its cloud-based media management tool, providing a reliable and secure platform. Thain says: "Our previous system used the same server as a high-profile
Internet company and was badly affected when that server was turned off in the United States in 2010. With Windows Azure and Microsoft cloud computing, we have a completely secure standalone service."
Moderating content for inappropriate language takes just five seconds.
Sports stars such as England cricket player Kevin Pietersen and sporting organisations such as UEFA protect their Facebook pages from inappropriate content through automated monitoring by Syocial. News or product releases can be timed to take place
simultaneously to millions of followers.
Cost-effective cloud-based financial model helps cash flow. By using Microsoft cloud computing, Sports New Media has avoided the need to invest in physical servers while attracting up to 70 million customers in just 12 months. "Fast time
to market was a major benefit of using Microsoft cloud computing to launch our global service," says Thain.
Microsoft partnership ensures IT supports the business. Microsoft
BizSpark One membership—along with ongoing access to technical resources at Microsoft U.K.—is helping Sports New Media develop its services. "We regard Microsoft as a business partner rather than a vendor selling us services," says Thain. "We're looking
to expand the company further with a number of major opportunities in the U.K. during the summer months."
Dynamic scalability accommodates networking peaks. "When a football star scores a goal, the social network around that star lights up," says Thain. "For us, that's a huge surge in traffic
to monitor and maintain. With Windows Azure we can dynamically scale up, so we can deal with these peaks quickly—and then scale down at quieter times. It's like having an unlimited data centre."
Sports New Media based in London in the United Kingdom creates, manages, and moderates Facebook pages and applications for leading sports organisations and top athletes.

My mom's surgery did not go well in Feb. They weren't able to get all of the cancer and it has begun to spread. I have been spending as much time as I can with her, because her time is short. She is begining to sleep more and so I have some more time and with elections around the corner I need to get back into the swing of things.
I have kept all of my weight loss and passed my goal weight of 150, today I am 146!!! Now it is time to tone up and set a new goal weight...oh yeah and fight for the right!

The JHM IRBs review all human subjects research projects conducted by Hopkins faculty and staff. To fulfill the agreement underlying the assurances, and to satisfy institutional policy, all faculty and staff at the Institutions must submit for JHM IRB review any human subject research project, regardless of funding source (or lack thereof) and/or location at which the research will be conducted.
[ Please Note: Part-time faculty are obliged to obtain JHM IRB approval of all human subjects activities conducted under the auspices of their Hopkins' appointment ( which means "use of Hopkins' personnel or space or the use of the faculty appointment in correspondence, agreements with sponsors, etc…")].
The Institutions operate under Federal-Wide Assurances associated with each of the organizations linked to the JHM IRBs. List of JHM FWAs
