Some of you may remember a thread I did almost two years ago (wow) on a system i've been developing to help manage our network. Our network is a plain vanila windows network so no real useful *single* suite of tools to help us out in an educational environment... Sure there are various tools out there and various suites, but with no money at the time and some rather unique systems and needs, a custom solution seemed right!
It's matured alot since my first thread about it, various systems have been cut, various systems have been finished and new ones have been added. I've always developed it with an aim to be used in other schools, but always been unsure if the best way would be free, opensource or commercial.
Still undecided and with no reply from a possible channel, i've decided to make parts of it opensource which perhaps will lead to all of it being opensource.
The main UI is based on the Office 2007 ribbon bar so i've decided to release the project which handles that. This is mainly for developers so they can put their own projects into the style of the ribbon bar but hopefully may attract some attention :)
The project is hosted on Github:- brainthee's Imperium-OS at master - GitHub Feel free to download and use. If you do use it in any of your projects, either a mention or a simple e-mail to let me know would be nice :)

San Diego Comic-Con is in full swing. Movie studios and television networks use the event to promote their upcoming offerings. There's no other platform for all things geek-related.
AMC used the opportunity to premiere the Season 5 trailer for The Walking Dead. The show came off its highest-rated season last year. Expectations are high from network execs. Here's what the network has to say about the upcoming season.
"From the opening tease in the premiere onward, season 5 is without question the most ambitious and satisfying season this amazing team has ever crafted," said Charlie Collier, AMC president. "In the zombie apocalypse, event television is alive and well, and I am proud to acknowledge that this uniquely talented writing staff, production team, and cast have once again raised the bar (and the crossbow)."
The Walking Dead returns Sunday, October 12 at 9pm. Check out the trailer below.
The Walking Dead ended its fourth season with record viewers. The finale delivered 15.7 million viewers, representing the biggest audience for a season finale. The number is just shy of the series' all-time record of 16.1 million which the AMC drama scored during the fourth season opener.
Sunday night's episode was up substantially from last season's closer which clocked in 12.4 million total viewers. For the first time in the show's history, it ended the season with a cliffhanger. With people curious to know how the ending will be resolved, I fully expect The Walking Dead to break records when it returns for Season 5.
Whether we like to admit it or not (for legal reasons), we've all downloaded our favorite TV shows through bittorrent at some point or another. Sometimes we can't help it because our PVR/DVR decided to go crazy and miss a show or someone in our household "accidentally" deleted it after watching it themselves. Or my most annoying pet peeve, when a preceding show bleeds into regularly scheduled programming. That drives me insane. Regardless of the reason, we've all done it. And according to the 2013 statistics compiled by TorrentFreak.com, millions of us are guilty as charged.
Once again Game of Thrones is the reigning king/queen of illegal downloads. The site reports that the season three finale of the HBO fantasy series was illegally downloaded 5.9 million times, while 5.4 million viewers watched the finale on television legally. One would think this would piss off HBO execs, right? Not so.
In one week, Season 4 of Walking Dead will premiere and I can't wait! I was late to start watching the show, but in the spring I watched all three seasons and am fully caught up to start watching the show in real time with everyone else.
As you know, the show is based on the comic book series written by Robert Kirkman. The Walking Dead stars Andrew Lincoln, Steven Yeun, Norman Reedus, Chandler Riggs, Lauren Cohan, Scott Wilson, Melissa McBride, Chad Coleman, Sonequa Martin-Green, Emily Kinney, Larry Gilliard Jr., David Morrissey and Danai Gurira.
The hit show returns Sunday, October 13 at 9/8c on AMC. Check out the two new promos below!
The Walking Dead returns on Sunday, October 13 for its fourth season. AMC recently released the first look clip from the show's upcoming season. In the video, Michonne (Danai Gurira) is attacked by some walkers and it is unclear what her fate will be. Yeah right, like the producers are going to kill her off. If you didn't catch the clip during last night's episode of Low Winter Sun, check it out below.
With Emmy nominations around the corner, it's time for the critics to sift through all the networks' offerings and pick the best of the best. The nominations for this year's Television Critics Association Awards have been unveiled.
Leading the pack with a total of four nominations is FX's The Americans. The drama starring Keri Russell about KGB spies nabbed Program of the Year, Outstanding Achievement in Drama, Outstanding New Program and Individual Achievement in Drama nominations. Thanks to The Americans, FX was the top dog among networks with seven nominations. CBS, NBC and HBO follow with six apiece, and AMC picks up five nods.
"These were not easy choices for our 200-plus members," TCA President Candace Havens says of the nominations. "The past TV season was filled with deserving people and programs, and these are the cream of the crop."
Other dramas with multiple nods include Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones and House of Cards. Top comedy honorees were Veep, The New Girl and Parks and Recreation. For all you lovers of vintage television, you might be interested to know that All In The Family, Star Trek, Twin Peaks, Saturday Night Live and Lost are all competing for the Heritage Award. Check out all the nominations below.
This week, a new episode of Homorazzi aired on OUTtv (Episode 9 to be exact) and in case you missed it, we've got the full episode for you to check out below. Since Nic (one of our usual panelists) was away vacationing in Hawaii (stay tuned for coverage on that), Blue from OUTtv join in as a special guest!
As usual, the panel started off by tackling some of the latest Gossip and the most heated discussion took place on the topic of Rihanna & Chris Brown seemingly back in a relationship. The conversation then transitioned to Britney Spears & will.i.am's new "Scream & Shout" music video as well as comments on how she's been doing on The X-Factor as a judge. Also discussed was Tegan & Sara's new "Closer" music video and we'd like to clarify that the Canadian indie rock duo are indeed both lesbians and twin sisters (despite some of the confusion discussed in the episode below – LOL).
For film & TV, the panel discuss two highly anticipated movies that include Lincoln & The Hobbit are discussed, while for TV they tackle The Walking Dead, Once Upon A Time, Gossip Girl, and Dexter.
In closing, they talk about the recent viral YouTube videos that started with "Gay Men Will Marry Your Girlfriends," and a new gay British series worth checking out. Check out the episode below!
Another day, another Oscar precursor. This time it's the American Film Institute's turn. Unlike the previous awards, the AFI doesn't pick one winner. Rather the group of critics, scholars, film artists and those in television pick the Top 10 in both cinema and on the small screen. All ten winners in each respective category will be honored at an invitation-only luncheon on Friday, January 11, 2013 in Los Angeles.
In the film category, you have your core group of movies dominating early critics awards. Steven Spielberg's Lincoln and Kathryn Bigelow's Zero Dark Thirty once again are honored. Joining the Oscar Best Picture race is Christopher Nolan's final Batman film The Dark Knight Rises. I believe it's the first nod the superhero flick has earned at a major Academy Awards precursor.
The biggest snub, IMHO, is Paul Thomas Anderson's The Master. The Joaquin Phoenix and Phillip Seymour Hoffman film recently nabbed Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor and Best Supporting Actress from the Los Angeles Film Critics. Sadly for them, the film was ignored by the AFI. Check out what else made the AFI's list of Best 10 films of 2012, along with the cream of the crop on television.

Traction control - anti wheelie devices
So, here's a question for debate.
Should we allow anti wheelie or traction control devices on RC Bikes?
On one hand it will make the bikes last longer by avoiding damage from wheelies, on the other hand it takes some of the skill out of the driving.
On one hand it would make it so that anyone could drive a superbike like a throttle jockie, on the other hand it would add a level of technical/electric complication that could put people off.
What do you think?
The new Thudertiger SB5 bike has a slipper clutch on the layshaft, I wish the of road bikes did, but I can't see a use for it on a road bike. I know several people have thought of electrical feedback loops or mercury switches, tilt meters, accelerometers, or wheel speed differential methods to apply a brake or limit throttle openings and avoid terminal wheelies, but should it be encouraged, or not?
|May 01, 2010, 08:36 AM
I am totally pro traction control devices and other electronic innovations because at some point this more sophisticated technology will be harder to copy than the rest of the bike (just look at the new 1:4 from HK!)
The driver as most important performance factor will still persist...

Any and all
I'm for it. Slippers/traction control, gear boxes,(my full size has both) variable length c-vec/buku exhaust( doesn't cost more than a ti pipe). Are not aftermarket/upgrade tires, breaks, MGBB servos, digital radios, shocks/forks, steering dampeners, any engine that fits (regulated maybe by cc) allowed? There could be a stock class -no upgrades/aftermarket- and a pro or mod class for any thing goes. Michael
|May 01, 2010, 01:32 PM
having a slipper clutch does not automatically allow any driver to go fast. it still needs a lot of skill. if the slipper is set loose then yes it prevents wheelies and the ensuing bike damage but your lap times won't be as fast as it could be. to go fast you need to tighten the slipper as tight as you dare or as tight as your throttle finger allows!
in summary the slipper does not take skill out of the equation. it can however save the bike from wheelie damage when in the hands of a novice driver.
|May 01, 2010, 06:15 PM
I m with Torrance, if you are looking for fast laps, the hands of a good driver is the only traction control you need.
|May 01, 2010, 08:25 PM
|May 01, 2010, 09:13 PM
Don't know where I stand on this one.... I think the skill level is what makes things interesting, and if if you take that away, things can get boring real quick...
But then you have the issue of technology, if no-one pushes the boundry the nothing really moves forward...
Programable speed controlers are at low level of traction control, add to this the adjustment available from even a mid level radio, and you can make things pretty tame, or really wild using all the same running gear and power supply... So isn't this already traction control... or rider aids... ???
HHHmmmm.... me not know which side of the fence to sit......
|May 01, 2010, 10:18 PM
I'm for packing as much technology into rc models as their full sized cousins. End of story for me, not that anyone else likely gives a

I'm one of those bored guys working on an electronic version of traction control. My version takes control away from the driver on the throttle and brakes (maybe even steering at some point). I would hate to see something like this in anything but a highly-modified class. On the other hand, traction control from a slipper does not really add any "smarts" to the bikes. It is just another tuning parameter to be taken into account along with the surface/tires/foams/etc. It's a compromise between faster acceleration and flipping the bike. Now I only wish we had more racers in Houston to race with so my opinion matters
|May 02, 2010, 01:31 AM
Here's another issue I can see... With a quality traction control system fitted to your " pro " class bike, this really exspensive two wheeled r/c rocket is now even easier to use than the much cheaper " stock " bike... Thus dis-heartning a bunch of guys starting to get into the hobby.....
|May 02, 2010, 02:42 AM
I feel the same way about RC motorcycle racing as I feel about F1. We should accept and embrace innovation as it comes up, be it in technology or design. Stifling the class for the sake of keeping it "even" is not in the spirit of racing. For F1, that means enough with these engine and even the budget limits -- Bernie is trying to turn it into into friggin' NASCAR, which isn't the sprit of F1.
That doesn't mean I feel that there shouldn't be rules, just that we should examine things like traction control devices and come up with rules on how to best implement it.
Oh, but I do still feel that if if doesn't have a rider out in the open, it isn't a motorcycle.

These sorts of arguements having been going on for years. The change from NiCad to NiMh, now to LiPo or LiFe cells. Resistor speedies, or electronic, Brushed or brushless motors. Every advancement, mechanical or electrical, will always be met with resistance, especially, if it seems to give an advantage for competition.
The new breed of intelligent speedies is growing, as the need to control higher capacity batteries and higher performance motors. For example, the new Mamba from Castle Creations.http://www.castlecreations.com/produ...a_max_pro.html
Are we going to ban these as well.
OK, stock class, yes, allow some restrictions, but, the superbike class, should be anything goes. as long as the bike meets the dimensional and capacity rules.
I think it was only last year at a major 1/12thscale car meet in Europe, there was talk of banning the entire Associated team because the tyres they used were unique and not available to any other racer.
|May 02, 2010, 04:58 AM
Any mechanical soution should be allowed.
Anything more complicated than a slipper will cause problems anyway
ANY electronic Gyroscopic stuff should be banned.
|May 02, 2010, 07:25 AM
Man did you guys just watch the moto2 race from Jerez ? Now there's your answer... Limited in all aspects, apart from set up and riding ability, awsome racing
|May 02, 2010, 11:04 AM
Sure inovations are a great thing, if everything is/was allowed in racing. Then the people with the deepest wallet will win the race.

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

Matrix Servic Management Discusses Q2 2011 Earnings Call Transcript
The operating results in the quarter and six-month period are in line with our expectations, driven by stronger demand for Construction Services in the aboveground storage tank market and Construction and Repair and Maintenance services in the Electrical and Instrumentation market. Revenue in the E&I market was up 117% for the six months compared to the prior year, and AST Construction revenues increased 34% over the six-month period a year ago. Unfortunately, our Repair and Maintenance Service segments continued to be soft, although there are some signs of recovery. Consolidated gross margins, while lower compared to the same periods last year, increased over the last two quarters as a result of better overhead costs recovery, driven by increased business volume and costs reductions.
The costs reductions implemented in fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2010 had contributed to our operating results in the three-month and six-month periods. Our proactive and aggressive changes to our cost structure, necessitated by the economic downturn or slowdown have allowed the company to more fully absorb overhead costs. We will continue to manage our costs to maintain the appropriate resources given the level of economic activity in our business.
With that in mind, we are encouraged by the improving outlook in many of our businesses as we continue to see a number of attractive opportunities across our core markets. We continue to see strong demand in the Construction Services segment, and we are also beginning to experience growing demand in the Repair and Maintenance Service segment. The Aboveground Storage Tank business continues to strengthen as a result of several factors. A significant driver of the AST market continues to be the development of the Canadian oil sands and related pipelines necessary to transport crude oil to the Gulf Coast. In addition, the increasing number of finished product formulations requires additional tankage as terminal operators look to improve logistics at their facility. Finally, global demand for products and security concerns is creating greater demand for export terminals in aviation fuel storage.

1997 Dodge Ram 1500 Question: How much time to replace rear main seal?
Answer #1G. T. Service Center (4231 Answers) , Stephenville, TX - (254) 638-3236ProfessorG October 24, 2013, 20:48Master
I don't remember ever looking, when it starts leaking replace it. I feel you're talking about the output shaft seal (to the drive line). Have seen them run for years without leaking. Have seen them have low mileage and leak depending on weather or road conditions. Have seen the output shaft bushings fail and people just replace the seal and it keep leaking without proper diagnosis.

Thank you for your reply! It is indeed an engjne oil leak its not red trans fluid coming out of there. I have replaced the trans recently as well so i doubt its the output shaft seal. Never touched the engine. How much hours will be charged can you tell?
ReplyProfessorG, October 25, 2013, 05:34Master
2wd or 4wd; 2wd will probably be about 4 hrs book time to remove and reinstall the automatic trans.

What Is SHTF And Prepping?
This article give an overview of the meaning of SHTF in the prepping community. Additionally, there is a high level overview of 7 emergency response plans and when they would be necessary. Download
SHTF INCH Bug Out Bag Strategy | Emergency Response Plan 1
The first emergency response plan one needs to develop is the INCH bag. INCH being an acronym for "I'm Never Coming Home", pretty much sums up the purpose of this response plan. This is a system that needs to be developed for an event that will force you from your home and there is no possibility of coming back. A sudden economic collapse followed by riots and martial law could force you to leave your area. Fear for your life may mean you can never return. You could be forced from your home by an earthquake or flood. Even though you may come back to the property someday the home and your belongings are destroyed. In any number of cases like these, all you would have left is what you were able to leave the house with. Preparing an INCH bag should take considerable careful planning. This is the worst case scenario, and most people don't want to confront it, but if you are really going to be prepared and have peace of mind, you must consider it.Download the pdf
It's Your War | You Are An Enemy Combatant
The worst war is one that non soldiers are involved in when they don't even know they are involved in it. American citizens are considered the enemy, and are under siege right now from one of the most feared dominating forces on earth. That's right, and it is their federal government, the government of the United States of America. The shame of it all is that most Americans are not even aware of it. Worse yet are those that have been warned but just shrug their shoulders and chalk it up to conspiracy theory. Like it or not, believe it or not, you are an enemy combatant unknowingly targeted by an increasingly growing fascist police state. Download the pdf

A Hollywood cast, an Oscar-winning composer and firepower can't save this mess of a movie.
Andy Garcia in "For Greater Glory."
Photo: Arc Entertainment,
If Michael Bay woke up one day and said to himself, "I need to make a movie about religious persecution in 1920s Mexico," I imagine it would look something like this.
Which is to say it would be a loud, violent, overlong mess of a movie, reeking of melodrama and filled with beautiful actors.
That's "For Greater Glory" in a nutshell. Bay, the manchild behind "Transformers" and "Armageddon," had nothing to do with this film. But his insatiable appetite for excess must have been a blueprint for this Mexican production. While "For Greater Glory" was made without blockbuster money -- it was financed independently -- it walks and talks like a Hollywood product.
The faces are familiar: the cast includes Andy Garcia, Eva Longoria, Peter O'Toole and Catalina Sandino Moreno of "Maria Full of Grace." Most are Spanish-speaking actors, yet the film was shot entirely in English.
As a would-be war epic, it has bold aspirations, and the explosive special effects and rapid-fire editing to back them up. The movie dramatizes a sliver of tumultuous Mexican history called the Cristero War. In 1926, President Plutarco Calles' anti-clerical regime began violently suppressing Roman Catholics, even executing priests. This gave way to a ragtag group of revolutionaries calling themselves Cristeros.
In the film, priests become gun-toting freedom fighters led by a retired general (Garcia) who is also an atheist. "I may have issues with the church, but I believe in religious freedom," he says. The rebel leader's religious discovery is one of the many heavy-handed subplots.
Exacerbating the problem: Every new scene is ushered onto the screen with a full symphony of choral music. The film's over-the-top soundtrack comes courtesy of "Avatar" and "Titanic" composer James Horner, a guy who has never heard a crescendo he didn't like.
The director, Dean Wright, is a veteran visual-effects wiz who supervised the latter two "Lord of the Rings" films. His vision of insurgent warfare brings to mind the classic 1966 film "The Battle of Algiers," which pitted French occupiers against a Muslim rebellion. But where Gillo Pontecorvo's film was a masterpiece of taut filmmaking, Wright's style is all burning crosses and child torture.
The film's financiers, which include a Mexican real estate developer and the Knights of Columbus, have been quoted saying the church vs. state parable is a timely critique of President Obama's birth control mandate. At the same time, Garcia and other actors have told the press this isn't a propaganda film.
Politics aside, "For Greater Glory's" main issue is this: It's an overwrought action film that will bludgeon you into submission. Michael Bay would be proud.

Nashville's Matt Clark Goes 2-for-4 To Extends Hit Streak
Nashville, TN – A tidy start from pitcher Jay Jackson was not enough for the Nashville Sounds (72-61), who fell to the Fresno Grizzlies 3-0 at Greer Stadium on Friday night in front of 8,014 fans.
Jackson (0-3) rebounded from a pair of rocky outings by allowing just one run in five innings on three hits while striking out six. He exited the game after issuing a leadoff walk to begin the top of the sixth, which would come around to score after Jose De La Torre allowed an RBI single to Jarrett Parker.
Nashville, TN – The Nashville Sounds (72-60) split their doubleheader with the Fresno Grizzlies on Thursday evening at Greer Stadium, dropping game one 8-4 and winning the nightcap 7-0.
The 8-4 defeat in the opener marked the first time in nine contests that Nashville had lost in doubleheader action at Greer this season.
Fresno left fielder Juan Perez (3-for-3) spotted the visitors a 1-0 lead with a one-out solo homer off Ariel Pena in the top of the first inning, the outfielder's seventh big fly of the season.

List YOUR reasons/excuses on why YOUR diets and exercise plans have not been well executed in the past. give 3 or 4 reasons and for each write a strategy that will keep you on track for 8 weeks. Let's learn from our past behaviors and make this our best Challenge ever!
1Main reason or excuse is that I procrastinate. I think about going out to walk and then something else catches my eye that I'd rather do and so I wind up doing it first and then may not get to the main issue of walking and exercise.
2. One excuse on overeating one day maybe as I make some kind of goodie for hubby and then I indulge as well. With warmer weather coming soon, I've decided not to make the sweet indulgences...It won't hurt him and especially will help me in the long run.
3. I have good intentions on exercise and then (since I don't like exercise) I put it on the back burner of my mind and just refuse to do it especially if I have the least little ache and pain. I justify not doing the exercises to the fact that it will make me hurt worse. I'm going to try to start overcoming those excuses and just start planning it.
4. One thing I think good thoughts but don't put it in writing. I need to write out my daily plan each day. Thinking to write each evening a plan for the next day and write in exercise or walking as first thing to do. Once I get it done first thing in the morning then I can get on with the rest of the day and not fret over the fact that I haven't done anything for exercise..no regrets this way.
Really I'm a pretty fast walker and in fact hubby complains when we go shopping together as I can out walk him in speed but lately with my back out of whack, I've slowed way way down and just enjoying the stroll...
After getting so mad yesterday I've found that keeping calm makes me much happier. But it seems some of the banks and mortgage companies are now charging to do bill pay online..and it just ticked me off no end and as a result my entire day was not happy...I did type them a snappy note and posted my payment and the note off for my monthly payment..seems our old mortgage company went bankrupt and turned it over to Green Tree and those crooks and thieves want $12 per month to pay online..or $12 to pay by phone. This is not a one time fee but has to be paid every single month...that amounts to $144 per year extra they are making. Well I decided that paying for a stamp is much cheaper... could do bill pay through my bank but would have to go into my small home town bank each month and set it up in person..well living 7 miles from town, the stamp is still cheaper than the gas to go up there..And when you think about it...our poor postal system which is needing money due to people like me who have been paying bills online instead for the convenience and being able to do this free...well from now on they will get my business instead of those thieves at Green Tree..
Anyway today I'm in a happier frame of mind. My sister called while we were eating our late lunch and I didn't answer but waited until we had finished before calling her back. So I'm enjoying a calmer day and much much happier for it.
List ALL your trigger foods.
I need to eat more fruit and to me in the winter fruit tastes awful..no flavor. so in winter I find my triggers are more comfort foods like mac & cheese...sweets like homemade pies....and salty snacks like chips.
What are the sources of the Triggers Foods?
I don't eat out much and so the things that would be my source would be keeping chips in the house. I've resorted to keeping only those salty snacks that hubby likes and I don't so I won't be tempted. Also on the sweet pie triggers, I'm trying not to make any and when I do, I limit myself to a tiny bit and then let hubby have the rest. I'm thinking that to get more fruit that I like to start making fruit drinks using our frozen fruit and pureeing it in a blender to make a slushy drink.
(By the way hubby does not have a weight problem and he has low BP even without meds and is 5 years older than me)
Describe the most common situations where you reach for the trigger foods or snacks. I do go ahead and plan a snack mid morning. We only eat 2 meals a day..breakfast and late lunch so if I really get tempted to snack it is in the early evening hours and then I have it planned ahead to eat some Babybel lite cheese. I can eat 2 of them for a serving with less calories. I also am trying to eat dried apricots or prunes but everything I'm eating I track the calories ahead of time to make sure I don't go over.
I think I'm doing the right things to control my trigger and know I will have days that I will eat one of my triggers but won't beat myself up over it if I do. With warmer weather I'm going to try to walk more to avoid wanting to snack and also chew sugar free mint gum which really helps. I'm also planning on drinking more water and tea to keep me hydrated.
This is our 3rd assignment so thought I would list here again. I did this once already but will post again.
list all the reasons you want to lose weight. What do you want to change? How do you want to look? How do you want to feel? What things will you be able to do in the future with a slimmer healthier body? And list all the OTHER things that you want to change!
1. Reason I want to lose weight...To help my back pain and keep other joints from falling apart. To breathe better.
2. What I want to change.....i want to do more walking daily and add more core exercises. I really need to do more abs to strengthen my back.
3. How do I want to look...duh!!Thinner and fit my clothes better..
4. How will you want to feel...back not hurt as much and able to walk further especially on our big trip this summer. I want to be able to breathe better as well.
5. What I will be able to do with thinner healthier body...walk further, breathe better and fit my clothes better.
6. Change other things....new hair cut and new clothes to fit the slimmer me.

A very worthy investment!
This is a really good brush to invest in. It really won't multi task (use wet, contour, blush, lightlight). It's really for just a quick all over powder but everyone needs a good ol all over powder brush and this is it.
When It comes to brushes, I don't stray from MAC. Sure it's a bit more expensive but there's a reason why.
This belongs in everyone's brush case!
More reviews by BrownSkinnedDoll
I think I'm in love! lol....this brush is absolutely amazing. While I must admit that it was a bit painful to hand over $52 plus tax for a makeup brush, it was completely worth it. The brush is super soft and just the right size to apply my powder all over my face. It gives me alot of control with my powder and does not leave me looking cakey or overly make up. I have yet to experience any shedding, and it did not bleed when I washed it. I've only had it for a little over a week so far, but I am very happy with my purchase. I stated that I would re-purchase this product, but if it lasts as long as most people have said, I don't think I will need to!! Great job M.A.C!! =)
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Such a multi-purpose brush.. Because it is shaped like a paddle, you can use the wide section for face powder, bronzer & the narrow section for blush, contour & highlight. the handle is a little shorter than the typical MAC brushes. I like to use this when travelling as this one brush can replace like 3 brushes. Therefore, lighter carrying.
The bristles are identical too the other fluffy MAC brushes (i.e 150, 129, 116...etc). This is one of my favourate MAC brushes of all time.
2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
this was my fave brush EVER and i loved it soo much! great for powder and bronzer, fast and easy since its so big. but its breaking!!!!! the handle is really loose and every time i use it now i have to hold it by the ferrule! im so mad that this happened to my 134!!! i love it so much but when it does break i am not wasting that much $$$ on it again cuz it might break again, and i always took real good care of it.. :(
More reviews by brittneydaylee
great brush! it applies powder so nice and evenly. it is also huge and fluffy (my type of brush!). My only complaint is that it bleeds every time I wash it. which isn't a big deal, but it is kind of annoying. it doesn't shed which is great!
Love this brush nothing bad about it apart from the price.
It is very very good quality and soo soft was almost afraid to use it at first but i would definatly say this was worth the money and it covers alot of area in just one swipe too
I've been lemming this brush for a long time, so I finally caved & bought this expensive little beauty. Fortunately, I have a pro card (30% discount). I have the 139 & thought that was good enough, but I have to say (after using it)...there's no comparison. It's a great brush for powder/setting foundation, great for bronzer, & great for blush. It's taperd enough on the end to have plenty control over the product placement & really fluffy & wide to make blending easy. It's like a giant flat 224 for your face. I'm so glad I caved in & got it.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is my "big fluffy." I use mine to set face powder and I love it for that. It cost a fortune and I have found the dye in the bristles to bleed a bit every time I deep cleanse it, which bothers me a little bit for such an expensive brush. I have have a few hairs shed, but only during a washing and I would expect that from something so fluffy.

AMAZING brush... i got nothing bad to say but the price. after i purchased this brush i never go back to my 182 for setting my foundation with powder. This brush is great for applying face powders, bronzer, contour, and even applying blush. quite expensive. if u don't want to pay around S$97 for a brush, u can find a dupe in coastal scents which is the jumbo chisel powder brush. I got both. well, i can say they are comparable but the 134 has fuller bristle and obviously nicer. think of buying this brush as an investment.
wow what a luxury item! i love the feel of this brush on my face! big and soft! love love love it! this was my 1st mac brush back in the ice age, and its still in amazing condition. and does not shed one bit!
unfortunately i have so many brushes i dont get to use this one often anymore. its very nice for loose powder, setting your foundation. or if you would like to achieve a very natural look with the mac sheer powder.
i think this is one of the best large powder brushes on the market. its a little pricey, but brushes in general are getting more and more expensive i find.

Exchange Enrollment Growing But Still Short Of Forecasts
The Obama administration just released the latest sign-up numbers for its troubled health insurance exchange website. Enrollment picked up last month, after a disastrous start in October. Still, the number of people signing up for coverage is below the administration's original forecasts.

A federal mediator has been called in to try to break a strike deadlock which has crippled a key US trade hub for the last week. The strike by clerical workers at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, which handle more than 40 percent of ocean-shipped US imports from Asia, is costing billions to the local and wider US economy. The White House said it was monitoring the standoff closely, and LA Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa announced the two sides had agreed to federal mediation, after he spent the night in negotiations himself.

Chocolate Decorator's Icing Recipe Coockery Show
Melt 1 ounce unsweetened chocolate and 1 teaspoon butter over hot water. Remove from heat; blend in 1 cup confectioner's sugar and 1 tablespoon hot water. Place in a medium-sized mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer until smooth. If necessary, add hot water, a teaspoonful at a time, until of desired consistency. (I added an additional teaspoon of hot water.) Place into a piping bag and use for decorating iced or un-iced sweets. I use a Quick Tip method, since I do not have a piping bag. I cut a *very* small opening at the bottom of a quart-sized plastic bag and inserted some of the chocolate icing into the bag. I then squeezed the Chocolate Decorator's icing out of the small hole in the plastic bag to write my grandson's name on a cupcake. This icing will look much nicer with professional equipment, but you can always use this quick and easy method. You may use your Chocolate Decorator's Icing for more than writing names and messages; you may draw the outline of any item that you want to feature. You can also form it into items like florets that will hold their shape. This is a project that is a lot of fun to do with your children. I hope you enjoy this Chocolate Decorator's Icing!

(If you are not using an ice ball, also add ice chips.) Pour mixture into a cocktail shaker and shake vigorously. (If you don't have a shaker, use a mixer or blender to blend well.) Immediately pour over ice ball, and place a cocktail pick containing ½ of an orange slice and 1 stemmed maraschino cherry on top of the drink.

Christmas Coconut Bonbons Recipe Coockery Show
In a large mixing bowl, combine ½ cup butter and a 16 ounce box of confectioner's sugar. Stir until well blended. Mix in ½ of a 14 ounce can of sweetened condensed milk, 3 ½ ounces of flaked coconut, and 1 cup of finely chopped pecans. Form mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a shallow baking pan that is lined with waxed paper. Chill balls for ½ to 1 hour in the refrigerator. In a double boiler, melt 12 ounces of semisweet chocolate chips and 1 ounce of paraffin (if desired). Use a toothpick to dip balls in melted chocolate mixture. Place on a large pan or platter that is covered with waxed paper. Chill, until ready to serve or store. When ready to serve, place the chilled bonbons on a nice serving plate, removing any excess chocolate that has stuck to the bottom. These can be made ahead and frozen. Just thaw them for a couple of hours before serving them. You may leave theses bonbons at room temperature or keep them refrigerated. They keep well when stored in a covered container. Enjoy!!!

Caramel-Walnut Monkey Bread Recipe Coockery Show
In a small mixing bowl, combine 1 cup brown sugar, 1 cup chopped walnuts, and ¾ cup melted butter. Stir well, and set aside. Place 1 ½ cups white sugar and 2 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon in a gallon-sized zip-lock bag. Close the top, holding it together with your hands and shake the bag until the mixture is well-blended. Now, open your refrigerated biscuits, and remove the biscuits from the first can. Separate the biscuits from each other, and cut each biscuit into four equal quadrants. Place the biscuit pieces all at once (or a few at a time) in the bag of sugar and cinnamon. Shake well to coat biscuit pieces. Place the biscuits evenly in a ring in a Bundt cake pan that has been sprayed with cooking oil spray. Spread one-half of the caramel-walnut mixture over this first layer of spiced biscuit pieces. Now, open the second can of biscuits, and repeat the process, ending with the remainder of the caramel-walnut sauce on top of the second layer of spiced biscuit pieces in the Bundt cake pan. Place the pan of layered spiced biscuit parts and sauce in an oven that has been heated to 350 degrees. Bake 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Immediately invert the Caramel-Walnut Monkey Bread onto a nice cake plate. (You will want to choose a plate that has a lip around the edge, so that sauce will not drip off the plate.) Serve immediately. Monkey bread is served by pulling individual pieces from the warm bread..

I've been an activist with Greenpeace for 30 years. In that time, I've delayed a nuclear weapons test, hung a banner on the Statue of Liberty, sailed on four oceans, lived in six countries, saved whales and learned to pilot a hot air balloon for the cause. I was setting up email communications with alligator clips in Moscow in the mid 1980s, online activism websites in the early 90s, and jumped all over twitter when it debuted at SXSW in 2006. As an early adopter, I learned how to spot technologies Greenpeace might bend to activist purposes and organizational needs, and developed some skills in getting them adopted.

They used to say that about cable TV too They'll give it away free in return for advertising. That's my prediction. XM and/or Sirrius will become standard on car radios and probably even boom boxes within 5 years (heck, most new cars already have one or the other as "ready" on their radios...my Mazda 5, far from a luxury vehicle has the ability to receive Sirrius on my midline radio).
They never said that about cable TV. The basic cable channels have had commercials from day one, and the premiums like HBO didn't, and nothing has changed.

BATON ROUGE, LA (NBC33) — Four City employees are accused of stealing fuel from the city over a period of eight months, turning small amounts of gas into a big crime.
"We're a tax-based organization," said David Guillory, Interim Director of the Department of Public Works, "and we make sure we do everything we to spend those tax dollars correctly."
But DPW and the Baton Rouge Police Department say four people abused the system. They claim Ensley Joseph, Rodney Maxwell, Joyce Gatlin, and Lawrence Smith stole approximately a thousand dollars from the city, by filling up small gas cans repeatedly between January and August.
Once DPW realized something was wrong, it began an investigation. It first suspected Joseph. In addition to surveillance footage taken from city gas stations, it put a GPS tracker on his vehicle and had police officers follow him.
"While he was on duty being paid, (officers saw him) go to his house, use a city trimmer, city gasoline to perform weed-eating at his own residence," said Lt. Don Kelly of the baton Rouge Police Department. "And then take the remainder of the city gasoline that was in the container and put it into a personal vehicle."
After starting with Joseph, investigators say they discovered similar thefts being committed by the other three suspects. Since the four were all using gas cards, DPW says it wasn't hard to follow their spending habits and discover the stolen gas.
"Any fuel coming from a city-parish agency, not being used for city-parish purposes, it's a big deal to us," Guillory said. "Any theft at all. And that's why we ended up at this point."
All four were arrested Tuesday morning and charged with felony theft. Additionally, Joseph is charged with payroll fraud.
Guillory does not believe the announcement of these arrests will impact his department's reputation, because it was able to catch the people he says tried to steal from taxpayers.
"Our employees here within Public Works have gotten the message before and they'll get it again," Guillory said.
"The processes we put in place to monitor this are what led us to this disciplinary action for these employees. Had those processes not been in place, we may have not known."
The police department says all four of the suspects had criminal records before Tuesday. DPW acknowledged that at least some of them had been arrested before, but Guillory mentioned that all four passed background checks before they were hired.

Financial Services Job Migration Previews New-Home Demand Trend
John McManus / BUILDER / July 7, 2014
After this past Thursday's upbeat June employment report from the Labor Department, it's only right that we begin looking more carefully at the correlations between job formations and housing's on-going recovery.
Have a look first at Wall Street Journal staffer Kathleen Madigan's "5 Takeaways from the June Employment Report," to get bearings around the good, the bad, and the still-ugly parts of America's jobs picture.
Among the encouraging trends below the headlines includes the fact that wage growth suggests that household incomesRead More
Brad Hunter / Metrostudy / June 30, 2014
Housing always swings much more wildly up and down than does the general economy. A survey that came out a couple of weeks ago drove home for me the reason why. The recent survey, from Hart/MacArthur, said that 7 in 10 people believe we are still in the middle of the [housing/economy] crisis, or that the worst is yet to come. That seems unduly pessimistic, given that job growth is improving, and that can only help incomes and housing demand.

Texas Housing Survey: The Coming Affordability Squeeze
Metrostudy / July 1, 2014
July 1, 2014: Houston Texas – Metrostudy's 1Q14 survey of the Texas Housing market shows even as housing continues to boom, new and lower income buyers are getting priced out of the market.
Texas right now is home to the strongest housing markets in the entire country. Texas was on a different cycle long before the boom and the bust came along. Driven by past swings in oil prices, the state was already on a rapid-growth trajectory before the rest of the country went on its early-2000s building binge. Said colloquially, when Phoenix and Las Vegas caught pneumonia, Houston sneezed and kept on going,Read More
Don't Panic
Brad Hunter / Metrostudy / June 17, 2014
New housing starts data from Census just came out, showing both single-family and multifamily DOWN. Single-family starts fell 5.9% (plus or minus 12.7%) in May compared with April, according to Census. They revised downward their crazy (high) estimate for multifamily (thank goodness we didn't build that many apartments). The number is still up 9.4% over last May.
To steal a title from Douglas Adams (Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy): Don't Panic. Don't panic about the drop in single-family; looking past the monthly noise, the trend is still upward.Read More

text: This is my first feeble attempt at blogging. I'm going through a time of questioning now. I'd reached my maximum weight in 2008 and started dieting, off and on, that winter after being turned down for health reasons for a lap band (was in the hospital, waiting, when they told me). Anyway, I lost 98 lbs over two years doing it my way. Because I still had health problems aggravated by the weight, I learned about Sparkpeople and joined. The support has been great, even though I haven't used it nearly as much as I should. Then, in June, I went back and had the lap band done. Dropped another 14 lbs in the 3 weeks afterwards, then actually gained 1 lb over the next 3. They told me it was a gain of water weight because I'd been dehydrated. Well, I've made the lifestyle changes (can't just diet, has to be permanent) and started tracking every bite on Sparkpeople (which has been enlightening!) but don't feel as though I've lost more (next med followup is in 3 weeks). So, I'm wondering whether the surgery was worth it or if I could have done the next 75 lbs the old way. Questions never cease, do they?

Our absolute limit for a day is 6 x 50 minute shows!
Even for primary schools we insist on at least 40 minute slots- because the primary students have so many questions :)

Grey's Anatomy Sneak Peek: A Precarious Patientby Matt Richenthal at . Comments
On Grey's Anatomy Season 10 Episode 19, the doctors will focus on a boy without an immune system.
What happens when this young man escapes his protective bubble and runs out into the hallway? Some scary stuff for everyone else in the area, that's what.
Check out this sneak peek now:
Elsewhere during the hour, Cristina will try to temper her excitement over a Harper Avery nomination, while Alex ponders a change Derek/Callie work with a machine that can recognize emotions.
Pretty cool, huh?
Watch Grey's Anatomy online if you need a refresher and return to TV Fanatic Thursday night for a detailed recap/review of "I'm Winning."

I can't believe I'm still watching this show!! I" m still not liking the interns (except Jo) even with two of them leaving (I won't miss them!!) Stephanie still annoys me. Gonna miss the hell out of Yang leaving and the April/Jackson marriage is no doubt going to hit bumps soon. I really hope the whole April and her religious thing doesn't surface (which will probably happen anyway!) give it a rest already! As far as the show goes?
Still on life support!!

My brother has two of these in a ported box in his 4 runner powered by a power acoustic 1920 not even bridged and they pound hard! Its louder than mine but mine are in a sealed box so mine hits lower and moves stuff that isn't even close to the truck i got the cvr 12's powered by a power bass 800.2. If i had a extended cab truck i would get a pair.

Ryan from Oak Harbor, OH
I recently installed one of these subwoofers for a friend in a 4.0cuft ported box tuned to 31 hz. This sub will play any kind a bass that you throw at it with ease and produce clear, loud bass that, for the price, is simply unmatched. Great subwoofer!
