Recently I decided I wanted to paint the small bedroom in my house. The wall was suffering from damp as it is an outer wall and always cold to the touch. The wallpaper that was already on the walls was a little slack and dingy looking and the room was just very glum to look at at all. That's why I went out and bought a tin of paint and this roller pack. This includes a tray and two sleeves that come in a plastic bag that's easy to open up and get straight to use. Setting up is fairly easy, however I do tend to have a problem with taking off the sleeves after use as I have weak wrists and can never really get the strength to pull them off. With a bit of pulling they do come away though, and one benefit is it does mean they are a little sturdier when on. It did mean I got paint all over my hands however as I had to grip on the sleeve itself to get it off, which was annoying.
Applying the paint is easy and it has very good coverage. The tray is also very effective as the dots mean it has good grip and the paint applies easily. It is about the same width as the roller and so it fits easily for back and forth coverage when getting the paint, and you don't just end up dunking it in and making a mess. There are two slight dips at the top of the tray were you can rest your brush, but more often than not this ends up being filled with paint if you aren't careful and so wasn't really used for that reason in my household. The sleeves are spongey and durable. They soak up the paint nicely, but equally they are also quite easy to clean I find. The handle of the roller is plastic whereas the rest is metal. It was easy to fit and the handle had good grip. The plastic is strong also and so hasn't yet cracked or loosened around the metal, meaning its easy to get a good grip, which is especially important when I find myself on tiptoe trying to reach up high as I'm fairly short to begin with.
The pack costs £5.99. I think this is reasonable for what you get, as the individual components would probably cost more for the level of quality you get from the pack. I would recommend because not only is the price reasonable, but the pack is effective and durable. The quality is the same as a more expensive option and is just as good at getting a good, neat coverage. They are also something you can get lots of use out of and so it is worth the investment.
We replaced all the disgusting 70's artex in the house and had all the ceilings re plastered which meant a lot of painting (and weekend evenings) was needed to decorate afterwards. That's where this set comes in.
This is not the cheapest paint roller kit at £5.99 but it is good quality. The cheapest i've seen is a £3.99 set from Toolstation but you get what you pay for. The kit comes in a plastic film wrapping which cannot be recycled. It is easy to open though, like opening a bag of crisps.
The fabric on the roller is quite strong and doesn't tear easily. It hasn't left clumps of fur all over the wall and it hasn't shredded itself on the tray. The handle is quite strong but you can shake it about and feel it clunking, so obviously not put together tightly enough.
I only have one of these so I can't comment if this was just mine not together tightly enough or if they're all like this. The handle is quite grippy, made of solid plastic and hasn't split or cracked. I'm quite heavy handed and haven't managed to break this yet...
The tray is just a thick layer of completely opaque black plastic. You really don't get anything special. It's a lot better than the B&Q one though because the dots stick out more making the paint roll off easier. The reservoir at the bottom is deep and not gradually sloped, there's a small cliff which smoothly rounds off at the bottom.
This is an absolute pain to clean though. There's two slots at the roll off end and these are great for storing brushes in but they are a pig to clean, it's really difficult to get your fingers right into the corners and so on mine a lot of dried paint has built up. Sometimes paint sloshes over the top and ends up in the bottom of these. Also a lot of paint builds up around the raised blobs, this sometimes dries and requires a little more effort.
When in use this set is absolutely fine apart from the loose handle, that's just a bit annoying. It does paint well, not had any issues with breaking or bad coverage. Recommended more than the B&Q one but if you're looking for a cheaper alternative try Toolstation.
Overall a great buy, recommended but be aware of those annoying slots, they're buggers to clean properly.
I officially hate decorating! I took on a beautiful big airy and light flat on but one that needed a lot of work but that was ok ....I wanted the place my way anyway and had plenty of expert help on hand.....
However its expensive, hard work and flipping messy and still although I have a flat I am not within it yet with work still happening to get the place looking right. I'm very fortunate like I have already mentioned to have expert help on hand but when I can I do a bit as well I like to as I really want to settle in this home and make it my own so that means to me having as much input as possible!
When I was in Homebase shopping for essentials I was advised to get a paint tray and roller, me I've never painted before really only dribs and drabs and had seen this sort of system being used (my ex was a decorator) but I hadn't actually used one myself and this one cost me £5.99 with the roller handle, 2 woven sleeves and a black plastic tray which was the cheapest I spotted in store on the day I bought this.
It all came in a see through pack which clearly told me what it all was and who it was by and the measurements and so on and it easily was torn off and disposed off.
This set is meant to be used with emulsion for ease of cleaning it really and is suitable for use on walls and ceilings alike. All you do of course is tip you emulsion into the deeper end of the tray which is rectangular and quite deep measuring (W)6.9, (L)36 and I got quite a bit in there and was impressed that it felt strong even when the paint was in it. The roller has a slim black plastic handle with homebase written into it and its a good length without being too long and the roller bit is white and feels soft and fluffy and that simply snaps on and rolls easily once on the handle.
I pop my roller into the paint, get rid of the excess paint to one side of it and get rolling. It rolls smooth and its up to me to make sure I have even coverage. Being quite wide it covers a largish area meaning less work for me and I find that I get the job done quicker and with far less drips with one of these that say a paintbrush!
I am really impressed with this. It gives my walls and ceilings a nice finish with no bits in it off the sleeve and when I pack up I just rinse the lot out but before it all goes too dry so it isn't reusable. Yes it takes time to clean it and it is pain after-all but I do like the fact that when the first sleeve goes on I have another to use so I think that all in all this is great little kit and I'm really, really glad that I found it!
Available only from Homebase stores.

Since we have been living here in our cottage I have been working my way round trying to get all the rooms painted.
The walls throughout the building are just plastered, but with random markings where the trowel has been, which fits in with the old age of the cottage. In the downstairs rooms there are beams on the ceiling with this same plaster effect in between. In the upstairs rooms the ceilings are smooth.
I have explained this detail to you to as you need to know why I wanted the paint roller. I find it easy to paint the walls with the markings as I can see where I have been and the paint does not need to be perfect.
When it comes to smooth ceilings I am hopeless! When my dad was alive I used to have a go myself but he always had to come in and give it a final coat to get it smooth and perfect for me.
So I began to paint the first bedroom - I did the walls and gave the ceiling a couple of coats with my trusty paintbrush but, although it looked better that I had ever managed before, it wasn't good enough.
I decided that I would get a roller kit and gave a go with that. I had seen dad use them to great effect so off I went to Homebase.
I purchased a basic roller kit and, although I can't remember how much I paid for it, they currently retail at £3.99 and of course you get Nectar points when you shop at Homebase too.
The product comprises a black plastic tray, a paint roller and a replacement head. These were all wrapped in cellophane and inside there was a sheet of green paper with the Homebase logo on it and just the words Extra Value Roller Kit.
The tray is made from black coloured plastic and it is rectangular in shape. The base of the tray has a well at one end where the paint is poured and a ridged slope from the well to the opposite edge of the tray. The whole thing is fairly deep which minimises the chance of spillage.
I put a reasonable amount of paint into the well so that there is enough to use but not so much that it would cause any problems with splashing or spilling.
The roller itself is made from plastic and covered in soft, furry material. This then pushes onto metal frame which has a black plastic handle with a good sturdy grip.
To use the kit I just poured some of the paint into the well of the tray, dipped the roller into the paint - rolling it to cover it with paint and then drew the roller up the slope of the tray to get rid of any drips. I then began to roll the roller back and forth across the smooth ceiling thus transferring the paint from the roller to the ceiling.
I gave the ceiling one further coat as I had already painted it twice with the paint brush. To my great surprise and pleasure the ceiling was covered well with no streaks. I have to say that dad would have probably got the finish even better than I did but I am sure that he would have been pleased with my efforts. I would give myself an 8 or even maybe a 9 out of 10 for my efforts!
The only problem with using a roller is the fact that it can give off a fine spray of paint during use, so do be sure to cover your furniture and carpets with dust sheets before you start.
Even though I have only used mine of the ceiling I am certain that it would be just as effective on the walls. The soft material of the roller head would mean that the paint would be pushed into every nook and cranny.
Once I had finished my painting I poured the paint remaining in the tray back into the tin and took the roller and the tray to the sink to wash them. I found the tray easy to rinse out as you would expect. The roller head took some time to clean but all I had to do was to hold it under a running tap until the water ran clear. The material of the roller head does hold a fair bit of paint so it takes a while to wash it all out but it is worth it because the material returns to its original condition once dry. To dry it I squeeze my hand along it to pull off any excess water and then dab it with kitchen roll. I then stand it on its end on a piece of kitchen roll to absorb any drips and just let it dry.
Well, I never thought I would say this but, I can recommend this paint roller kit! I have always been a paintbrush girl but I was very impressed with the finish that this roller gave me.
I would give it four stars - it loses one for the spray given off whilst painting.
I am starting to sound a bit like a painting expert for I have written several reviews on paint and brushes and what not. I tend to do the painting in our house as I quite enjoy it. I'm not a DIY expert, I don't know any hints and tips of the trade but I just work my way through.
I always use a roller tray when painting, I don't think it would be possible to paint without one! I always tend to find the cheapest too as I normally just throw the tray away once I've finished painting which I know is probably very lazy of me but I do find quite often that the trays do not wash out properly and so if you re-use them it can affect the colour of paint you use. In shops such as Homebase or Wilkinsons you can find a paint tray for quite cheap, they do usually come with a roller or two too which is useful! I tend to buy these and they are about £2.99 for the tray, a roller and two heads which I think is a suitable price to pay.
The tray is made from plastic and it's fairly strong but if you stand in it (yes this has happened!) then it will crack and snap! It is very light too so it does have a good chance of being knocked and fall off a table if you're not careful. It needs to be light though so that it makes painting easier- if you carry this around with you and it's full of paint then you would struggle under the weight or it would just be awkward to balance it.
It has a deep section to it and a shallow, textured one. You pour a good amount of paint into the deep section and the shallow section you leave empty. You roll your roller into the deep section to get paint upon the head and then roll it out on the shallow, textured section. This helps to get the paint evenly spread across the brush. It's always ideal to roll this in two/three directions to get the paint all over the head. If it is not spread out properly over the brush then when you put it on the wall it can be very patchy which can lead to poor drying.
When you are rolling your roller in this you will need two hands- one to hold the tray still and one to do the rolling. If you try this with one hand the tray will move with you as it's only light.
The tray is just wide enough for your roller to fit in, it's obviously designed with the size of the roller in mind.
What I like about these trays is that they are well designed and make painting with a roller much easier. They can, however, end up with bits of paint in the corners which you find hard to pick up with your roller as the head just misses these areas and seems to move paint into them. What I do though is use a brush to make use of this paint for the 'cutting in' areas or I will get the brush and gather up the paint on it then put it onto the roller from the brush as I don't like to waste any paint especially as it can be so expensive!
You can get drips from this tray, as you roll the head of the brush around if you do it quickly- which is the most efficient way- it can spray out lots of tiny specks of paint so do make sure that you put this on a surface which doesn't matter if it gets paint on it.
Another tip that I find very useful is- always remember where you put this! Whilst you're painting it can be so easy to keep this on the floor, roll your roller over your wall and then step back to admire it, forgetting that you have left the tray directly behind you and you end up stepping in it! This has happened to me TWICE now, you would think I would have learnt by now but evidently not!
When cleaning this you have to be quick, if the paint sets and dries it can be very hard to then remove it. I will always clean this out right away if I know i will be needing it for the same colour paint the next day. If I have finished the last coat of paint I tend to just throw it away as it can be a very fiddly cleaning job. If you don't remove all of the paint then when you go to use this tray again using a different colour the bits of paint which are left over can come up onto the roller and can cause your paint to be tainted with a different colour or have lots of little tiny dry bits of paint within it.
Roller trays are a great idea and are available from DIY stores and some supermarkets. I have seen some in the pound shop too so you can get them for a very good price! They are very useful, I don't think that I could paint the walls of my house without one.
Recently my mum and dad were decorating their spare room, my mum suffers from Lupus so cant do anything like decorating and with my Dad working 13 hour shifts it meant he couldn't always be there to do it so I offered to do the ceiling for them, after all its once a small room with a totally smooth ceiling (well with a few cracks in it) so it wasn't really going to take me long. I decided to use the largest brush we had thinking this would get the job done quickly, not the case, I managed to get the first coat on in a reasonable time but it was rather streaky. Disappointed with the finish the brush gave we took a trip to our local Homebase in search of a roller to give a much smoother second coat. We didn't want to spend a huge amount out on a fancy roller and came across Homebases Extra Value Roller Kit, cheap to buy and with all the accessories we needed it was perfect to get the job done.
The packaging of the kit was very simple, it came in wrapped in cellophane with the words Extra Value Roller Kit written on it along with the Homebase logo, there was certainly nothing fancy about it at all, however this was quickly disposed of. The kit consists of 3 parts, a large black plastic tray, the roller and also a replacement head.
*The Tray - The tray is made from a black coloured plastic, it is rectangle in shape and is made up of 2 levels with one end of the tray being slightly higher than the other. The lower part of the tray is where the paint is poured into and where you load the roller up with paint. The raised and slightly textured area is used to remove any excess paint to prevent it dripping onto the floor as you go to paint the area required. The tray has a slight lip around the edge of it possibly to help stop paint spilling over the edge but I did not fill the tray up enough for this to happen. The lower area of the tray designed for the paint is of a reasonable size and holds a decent amount of paint, I cannot say exactly how much because as I have said I didn't fill this section right up, I just poured a small amount in and topped it up as and when I needed.
*The Roller - The roller is just like any normal paint roller, it has a chucky black plastic handle, a descent size so you can easily grip it but not too big so that it is difficult to hold, the handle is smooth but in no way slippery. Coming from the handle is a piece of metal, this comes up at an angle and then curves round horizontally, this horizontal piece of metal is where the roller slides onto, it comes with a small cap to push in the end of the roller head to stop it from falling off. The actual roller head is made from plastic and covered in what can only be described as a pale yellow furry material, the material is actually extremely soft and quite fine, I imagine that this would be ideal for textured walls and ceilings making it easy to get paint into every corner. The replacement head is exactly the same as the one which comes already on the roller. The roller heads simply push onto the end of the roller handle and are held in place with a small plastic cap, although I have to admit the roller heads are very hard to push onto the roller, it took me and my Dad to do it with me push against the roller head and him pushing against the handle so once together it is best to leave it this way to avoid a battle every time you wish to use it.
All parts of the roller kit (the tray and the roller) are extremely light to hold, personally I think this is important especially when painting ceilings like I was as it means you can
comfortable hold the tray with one hand if needed and paint using the roller with the other hand without your arms aching within a few minutes.
I purchased the Extra Value Roller Kit to paint a ceiling, I had already given it one coat with a paint brush and brought the roller to give the ceiling a smooth streak free finish. Not long after I had begun painting with the roller I noticed how much easier it was compared to the paint brush, the paint was going on very smoothly with non streaks at all. I had been a bit concerned that using a roller would mean paint splashing everywhere, but again this was not the case the paint did not splash or drip at all, there was hardly any mess. The soft furry surface of the roller meant I could get close to the edges of the ceiling easily. Using the roller and the tray together was very easy, the roller fitted nicely into the tray allowing you to load it up with paint and then remove the excess on the raised area, and again there was no mess or dripping of paint. The roller allowed me to quickly give the ceiling a second coat of paint without applying the paint too thick or having to go back over streaks, once I had finished I was very pleased with how it had covered and how good it looked, I'm sure if I had carried on with the brush I would have been doing a third or possibly fourth coat, but with the roller there was no need to give the ceiling another coat of paint.
I purchased my Extra Value Roller Kit from my local Homebase and it cost me just £4.49 which I thought was a real bargain epically as you got the paint tray, the roller and the replacement head for this amount. The roller seems extremely durable and hardwearing, once I had finished painting I washed the roller and tray and it was still in excellent condition, I did wonder whether I would be able to reuse the roller once I had washed it with it being so cheap, but it was still in excellent condition and washed up very well and I will certainly be able to reuse the roller head.
Overall I was very impressed with my Extra Value Roller Kit, it was not only cheap to buy but hardwearing, durable and did a very good job of painting the ceiling. I think this roller would be suitable to paint most surfaces. When using the roller there was no mess at all and it was very easy to use, it allowed me to get the job done very quickly. I would certainly recommend this kit to anyone who is thinking of doing some decorating.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Shyla- Adopted!!
Facts about Shyla- Adopted!
- Breed: Border Collie/Golden Retriever Mix
- Color: Tan/Yellow/Fawn
- Age: Adult
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Female
Shyla- Adopted!'s Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with dogs.
Name: Shyla
Age: 1-2 years old
Breed: Border Collie mix
Gender: Female
Shyla is a fun, active and smart little dog! She is about 35lbs and full grown, with a medium length wavy golden coat. We believe Shyla is a Border Collie mix, and she certainly acts like one. She is inquisitive, interactive, loves attention and affection and absolutely cannot bear to be 'in trouble.' She plays a lot with other dogs and loves to play with toys and go for runs. Shyla has a high energy level and would love someone who would spend time exercising with her. She absolutely adores children and melts into a trance when they are doting on her.
Other Pets at Circle of Friends Animal Society
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Shyla- Adopted!, a Greensboro Border Collie/Golden Retriever dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Border Collie/Golden Retriever for sale in Greensboro, or seeking a Border Collie/Golden Retriever dog from a breeder in Greensboro.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Greensboro already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Greensboro breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Border Collie/Golden Retriever breeders who help with Border Collie/Golden Retriever rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Greensboro paves the way for another one to be saved.

The "Feminist art movement" began in the early 1960s. Women's roles were questioned in society and thus were questioned in art in an article by Linda Nochlin called "Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists?" She argued that there were few women artists because they were held back by a system that denied them equal opportunity (academies and guilds). Also in a society in which the home was run and child rearing was done entirely by women, women did not have the opportunity to engage in academia or the arts. Generally, if women were artists, they had to have male family members representing or teaching them. Painting was the only subject a woman could engage in, but nude models were forbidden for female painters, thus never reaching complete potential for academy standards. Italian Baroque painter Artemsia Gentileschi was one of the few female artists who was able to rise above this.
Artemisia Gentileschi. Judith Slaying Holofernes (1614–20) Oil on canvas
Women painters painted vernacular works (life and children). Women have always been creating things, but it was always derided as craft. Women artists in the 1970s decided to raise up the things that were regarded as weaknesses and used them to their advantage in their artwork. They embraced the personal, the homey, with references to the kitchen and child raising (this is our home, and it is as important as politics). They used craft materials, things that were soft and textural, and non-traditional practices. They used the antithesis of high art and materials. They focused on the female body as a thing in flux. The female body is not controlled, and considered evil in both medicine and philosophically.
Mary Kelly. Post Partum Project (1974-79) Mixed Media
The new feminists felt the need to celebrate the bodily differences and changes that occur in the female form. The changes affirm life, and change implies growth and life. They began to explore what was called the "messy worlds" of the body; the life forces of the body. Rather than take the usual western philosophical stance of the mind and body split, feminists wanted to praise the body on equal footing with the mind.Shigeko Kubota .Vagina Painting (1965) Performance

Judy Chicago's most celebrated piece is The Dinner Party. The installation includes women in history who were disregarded or vilified. She wanted to bring women to the forefront. She acknowledges all the people who worked on the dinner party and all the people in the dinner party. She used the shape of a triangle because it represented equality and the pubic area of women. There are a total of 39 women honored with place settings and the floor is decorated with the names of 999 other women from history. Each plate and place setting was made to match the place and time the woman lived. Each plate is designed to look floral or vaginal. She wanted to celebrate the craft and of women and the human body.

"Themes of maternity, reproduction, femininity, closure, transitions, and correspondence are also apparent in my work. I use objects, placed in reliquary-like spaces, which have literal and abstract symbolism within a composition.The interaction between these objects explores the conventional and non-conventional roles of family and at the same time, documents a change of lineage. Layering objects and placing them in dream-like atmospheres suggests change, transition, and reflection. This allows me to preserve history and suggest tension, repetition, and change. The work becomes a documentation of these ideas as well as an organized time line of events with a feminist perspective."

In other words, a ProDataSet provides a mapping between a set of
database tables or other data sources and their "in-memory"
representation. Since a ProDataSet is defined independent of the
data structure, it provides a convenient, powerful, and
consistent method of separating application data access from the
specifics of the underlying data definition or data access
mechanism. A ProDataSet can be passed from one procedure to
another as a single object and it can be shared with .NET and
other open technologies. For these reasons, ProDataSets enable
developers to more easily develop and transform applications that
are in step with the latest advancements in application
development methodologies, including the OpenEdge Reference
Prior to the availability of Open Edge 10, the Progress 4GL
developer would write 4GL procedure code to manually handle many
of the automatic features of ProDataSets. The ProDataSet
structure itself automates and encapsulates much of the "by-hand"
programming in earlier releases. In addition, it enables
features that were difficult to develop using traditional
ProDataSets allow you to define a structure that represents organized tables, regardless of the external structure of the databases. This primary benefit allows you to write business logic and data display logic to reference the ProDataSet in the format best suited to the application. In addition, ProDataSets:
ProDataSets can be utilized on the client-side for processing of
user activity and data display, on the server-side for processing
of business logic, data retrieval, and data storage, and they can
be used to transport complex data structures from one procedure
to another.

text: When Gregor Salto and Wiwek released their beast of a track "On Your Mark" three months ago, I was blown away by its massiveness and how crazy it was from a percussive standpoint. I didn't think anything could top it, and I heard many attempts to flip it and it just didn't quite hit the mark for me personally. Leave it to Ookay to prove me wrong by making a massive trap flip, especially right when I thought I might be at that point where I can no longer take any more trap edits of every song known to man. He took the crazy percussive elements from the original and sped it up and added a booming 808 that is sure to make people bounce. I had the chance the test this one out and the crowd lost their shit, and upon seeing the reaction, I can tell it's definitely a tune that you'll hear all through out this summer.

All the points you raise are valid, and have all been discussed before. I can remember most of these issues going back to '01/'02. The reason they aren't solved yet isn't because it's mentally difficult, or because the ideas are stupid. It's because (1) it's a lot of work to put everything together, (2) focus has been spent on dictating policies and arguing on the lists instead of producing code, (3) nobody has cared enough about the problem to actually write tools that developers can accept. Don't let my comment be a discouragement. It is not. I'm just saying that the best way out of this predicament is to just write the tools. Writing policies is useful for documentation, but useless for checking. Whoever picks up this project should carefully stay of of the limelight to avoid the usual flamefests. Historically, that's how the QA people got burnt out before, trying to force through policies, and never got around to the kick-ass tools we wanted.

I knew I was going to be very busy this month so I decided to make this challenge early in the month. For a while a couple of friends and I had been talking about a pizza night where we would make our own pizzas. So when I read that this month's callenge was to bake pizza like a real pizzaiolo I had the perfect excuse to get together with some friends and do it.
The challenge was to use Peter Reinhart's pizza crust recipe and toss the pizza in the air like a real pizzaiolo.We got together at Fabrice's house one Saturday night. I provided the dough, which I started Friday night, and Jeremy and Fabrice the toppings. We had a lot of fun making them. We baked 3 pizzas total, one Hawaiian, one dairy-and-pork-free for Jeremy and one pepperoni and bell peppers.
Part of the challenge was to capture on film the moment when you were tossing the pizza, but unfortunately we were having so much fun that I forgot to take pictures. But if you need proof you can ask Fabrice, Jeremy or Jon and they will testify (under oath) that I indeed tried. I ended up using a rolling pin just to get them thin enough, but I wasn't afraid of the dough (not anymore!) Here are the only 2 pics I took that night:
I wanna thank Rosa for this challenge, which wasn't much of a challenge since I bake pizza at least once a week, but still was a lot of fun. This challenge is in memoriam of Sherry, a great blogger that passed away on July 20th, 2008. Wherever she is I am sure she's smiling at all of us goofy Daring Bakers.
¡Buen provecho!
For the pizza recipe visit Rosa's blog.

this product i bought for $7.60. hav been using it for about 4 months and i still hav half the bottle (90ml bottle). I only ever use it really for removing mascara and ive found it is quite good - i frequently use a waterproof mascara and it comes out easily enough with a cotton pad and a bit of a scrub. it does leave a bit of an oily residue but its easy enough to just wipe off. i usually hav sensitive eyes but i found it was ok (label says 'formulated for sensitive eyes'). i luv how the packaging is c thru, altho u can c how the oil or whatever splits.
I purchased this product because my usual Maybelline eye makeup remover was no longer available. I was using Expert Eyes with the blue lid and was having heart failure when I couldn't find it on the shelf. The only product available was Eye Studio Express Care Eye and Lip Makeup Remover. I usually hate these express formulas because I find they leave a greasy film around the eye area. This is an exceptional product. It removed every trace of my Revlon Colorstay eyeliner (black) and it did not leave that greasy, slimy film around my eyes. I like it better than Expert Eyes and that is quite a revelation because Expert Eyes is the only eye makeup remover that I like! This is a great product!

The Huayra, Pagani's latest supercar, is about to hit streets around the world.
If you can't afford the car's $1.4 million price tag, at least you can find out how it is made at a factory in Italy, thanks to a newly released documentary made by Pagani detailing the process behind the Huayra's elegant creation.
"I have always embraced a concept borrowed from the the Renaissance, embodied in a sentence by the great Leonardo Da Vinci over 500 years ago," Horacio Pagani, the company's founder, says in the film. "'Art and science are disciplines that must walk together hand in hand.'"
The Huayra's curves are inspired by the twin fascinations of wind and air, and its design was conceived over the course of five years.

Shifting Perspectives: Gearing a bear druid in patch 4.2, part 2 {WoW}
Aug 3rd 2011 7:01PM Shadowfax, you fail at improving the quality of the comments. There IS a lot of bad info here and you made the problem worse.
I think the source of the problem is that some people learn how to play the strength-based tanking classes and learn the simple truth: "PvP gear is useless in PvE tanking" which is true FOR THEM.
That is CERTAINLY not true for bears. Read any resectable bear strat site that speaks about pvp gear and you will learn this. You say it would only be better than an ilvl 333 item? I say you are very ignorant of bears.
Again, a pvp item of a higher ilvl will have:
the ONLY mitigation stat they will have less of on average is Mastery.
Pls don't try to apply what is a truth to other strength based tanks to bears.
There is NO "tanking" leather in this game. There is just dps leather and bears were designed to be able to use dps stats (like agility) and use it for tanking. This changes everything.
Again, PvE gear IS better if the same or close to the same ilvl. But if the difference in ilvl is large, then the higher ilvl piece is better.
Shifting Perspectives: Gearing a bear druid in patch 4.2, part 2 {WoW}
Aug 3rd 2011 6:51PM Your thinking is wrong on this. As has been clearly stated, the most important stats for bears are:
Armor, Agility, Stamina, Dodge, and Mastery. Then way below those stats are the rest.
A pvp item of a higher item lvl will have:
More Armor
More Agility
More Stamina
More Dodge
Less Mastery (on average)
The other stats are much much less important. Also, I have to disagree with Allison on the importance of the other secondary stats for threat. No one cares about threat, and if they do and are playing a druid, then they are probably playing badly. In fact since the pvp gear has more agility (which gives WAY more threat than any secondary stat) it at least partially offsets the loss of some crit or haste (mastery doesn't give you any threat BTW).
Vengeance makes threat a non-issue except in the beginning of a pull, in which case you have berserk. And for AOE situations, our aoe threat has been buffed very high.
Bears have absolutely no problem with threat. I have done a lot of raid tanking in pvp gear and I have never once had a threat problem.
That being said, realize that by the end of the patch, all my pvp gear WILL be traded in for current tier raid gear. But that the beginning of each patch, feel free to replace a lot of your old raid gear with pvp gear until you get the good pve replacements.
It unambigously raises your mitigation. Why wait on that one stupid pieces drops after a month or so or raiding when you can increase your mitigation without hurting your agro right now?
I still think the Author is leaving out PvP gear simply because it makes the articles quicker and easier to write, which disappoints me.
I would love to find an article that takes each pvp pieces into account and compares it to the rest of the gear Allison listed so we can see which ones are better as temporary upgrades and which are worse based on the pvp itemization and the comparative pve itemization.
But that kind of article would require more effort than this one.
Shifting Perspectives: Gearing a bear druid in patch 4.2 {WoW}
Jul 26th 2011 6:42PM Well, the pvp gear may or may not be better than stuff 6 ilvls below it, but it is certainly better than dungeon gear. Not including it is silly and is really the "easier path" rather then the path of "most usefulness" from the writer.
I would encourage Allison to take the time to include the pvp gear in her analysis. After all, it may take us months to get some of the gear listed here and meanwhile we could continue wearing our old gear which was long ago outpaced by the new pvp gear sitting in our bags (arena gear is fairly quick and easy to get).
Not including it in the list, makes this list incomplete and much less useful.
Shifting Perspectives: Gearing a bear druid in patch 4.2 {WoW}
Jul 26th 2011 6:35PM Pls start including pvp gear in your list. It is better than much of the gear you listed. Even though a lot of itemization is wasted on resilience, it is higher ilvl than the equivalent pve gear it will still have:
More armor, more stamina, more agility, and more dodge (reforged on). It will have less of the other stats (the less important ones).
It is also very easy to get. So it would be so much more helpful to us if you would include it in your analysis.
That would make this article much much more valuable to me at least (and I bet there are many others like me who would agree).

We used AJ Madison, they are located in Brooklyn. Solomon Lewis is the salesperson we used. |

Another vote for AJ Madison. Check out their website, then visit their showroom in Brooklyn for even better prices. I worked with Shana Ciment. |

I also had a great experience with AJ Madison. |
I'll be the dissenting voice, as I had a bad experience with AJ Madison when I went in. The salesperson was very uninterested and, more importantly, uneducated about appliances. I was telling HER why the Capital she was showing me wasn't the Culinarian, when she insisted it was. I'm working with David Sugarman at Gringer's who is knowledgeable and has given me some very fair prices. I've read online reviews very critical of Gringers, but it's not been my experience. |
We had great luck with Village Appliance in Port Chester. They were the only place we went to in Westchester that offered any real assistance and their prices were the best we found, too. |
If your are in N. Jersey, I used Top Line in Westfield - Wes Girnius was the salesperson. They are easy to deal with and have great prices and will match any price in writing. The best part is that they have a store in a NJ designated enterprise zone, so tax was only 3.5% if you drive there to buy it. |
I recommend Barry's in Bridgewater NJ. Good prices and this family owned business services the appliances they sell. The sales people do not work on commission so they can truly help you evaluate the appliances. If you go, tell them I sent you. Anyone can help you there. They are all well trained. I can recommend Ryan and Jason. FYI they have an electrolux induction on display - a rare thing. They allowed me to test drive it by baking cookies. They will be setting up a capital that customers can also cook on. As an interior designer, I look for stores that service their customers. Barry's has its on fleet of service people and usually you will have service within three days. They prioritize - a customer without refrigeration would get service before someone with a broken dishwasher. Most often, I believe service is even quicker. |
In Manhattan I've used Stuart at Krups Kitchen and Bath for two kitchen renovations. They have all of the high end brands. They know how deliveries work in NY apt buildings, whether subzero refrigerators will fit in the service elevators and willingness to make multiple deliveries (we don't have garages to store stuff until needed). |

my vote, hands down, Leiberts Royal Green .. absolutely far and away the best customer service in any appliance retailer i've EVER dealt with (3 residential remodels in past 12 yrs).... i posted a review here some time back, but these guys are exceptional. |
I am in NJ and bought from Hampton Appliance in Garden City, NY. Best prices, free shipping, no tax |

i was getting some of my seed ready to sow today and two packets looked like it had a few (very few) seeds and the rest was almost like mealy looking sand. Upon closer observation it appreas that perhaps the seeds were eaten by something. Some of the seeds in one packet looked as though the seed coat had been cracked. i immediately checked my other packets and the rest of my salvias were fine. Was there some sort of bug in the packets that could have eaten the seed or did they just disintergrate. one packet was completely sealed the other wasn't.

Penny I had a very similar thing happen with some salvia seeds I had saved last summer. Lost probably 98%. Believe it was a little bug that was eating them, it was just like hulls. jp |
thanks JP that must be what it was some sort of little mite as I did have hulls. That was the first time I had seen that and wasn't quite sure what to make of it. At first i thought that someone wasn't familiar with seed collecting until I looked at the remains again closely. Penny |

2000 Mazda Protege Repair and Maintenance

- Water Pump Replacement $311 - 752

2000 Mazda Protege Problems
The timing belt tensioner pulley may make a squealing noise from the timing cover area on cold startup. An updated tensioner with a thicker mounting bracket to eliminate vibration may be needed to solve the problem.
An electrically shorted air flow sensor can cause a crank-no start condition. Diagnosis may show that ignition spark is normal, and there are no trouble codes stored.
Misfires under load (acceleration) can be caused by leaky spark plug boots. When a spark plug boot leaks, it allows the spark to arc, or jump, to the cylinder head. New spark plug wires will be needed.
2000 Mazda Protege Questions
I have an interesting problem that has me stumped. The car won't start with out a jump. The battery is new, the alternator tests good. The cables are not corroded. The fuses all seem to be good. I can usually start it once after it has sat for a while but if the engine is warm, it will no...

I found a 2001 model engine for cheap, just wondering if it will work for my car or if it must be the exact same year?
2000 Mazda Protege Recalls
Some left rear brake hoses were damaged upon vehicle assembly. A damaged brake hose could lead to brake failure. Dealers will inspect and replace the hose as necessary.

I live in eastern North Carolina and have very sandy soil. I am hoping someone can identify this weed for me. Rather than being dotted around the yard, it tends to grow in "colonies" here and there. Any and all help appreciated. Thank you.

tagged with: "diary of a wimpy kid"
Look out for the Diary of a Wimpy Kid Greg Heffley balloon in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade for the fourth year in a row! There's no way Greg would leave his diary behind when he takes to the skies.
Best-selling author Jeff Kinney and several members of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid team are touring around the country celebrating the release of Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Hard Luck. There has been a lot of press, tons of photos, and now you can follow all of the action on our Pinterest board!
The 2013 American Library Association's (ALA) Annual Conference is taking place June 27-July 1 in Chicago, IL. There will be a ton of Abrams authors attending to sign books and meet readers! Read on for a full schedule of Abrams booth signings (#2005) and events.
Jeff Kinney was named Author of the Year for Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Third Wheel by the Children's Book Council at the annual Gala, held last night in New York City. This is Kinney's second consecutive win!
Valentine's Day is just around the corner— tomorrow to be exact. And what's on our minds here at Amulet Books? Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Third Wheel, of course!
Enter to win a Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Third Wheel Valentine's Day prize pack! Included in the prize pack (pictured) is one copy of the book, Greg Heffley tattoos, an official Third Wheel magnet, and chocolate. You'll win the same kind of chocolate that was given to every Abrams employee on the official release day!
Lindy sits diagonally across from my desk, in a warmly lit, comfortable office. She's my island of calm on hectic days and I love that we can see each other perfectly from our desks. She's a very quiet, very hard worker, that Lindy, and is always here long after I leave.
If you don't have a son or daughter under the age of 15 (or so) and you work in an office (as I do) you may not have the chance to actually visualize the success of the Wimpy Kid books first hand. My boys are grown-ups (18, 22, 27) and will read a Wimpy book if there's one lying around the house, but they aren't Mr. Kinney's audience.
November 13th, 2012 was the much anticipated release day of the biggest book of the year: Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Third Wheel by Jeff Kinney, published by Amulet Books! Jeff toured seven states and reached forty-nine booksellers in the Midwest. Learn more about the tour here, and go behind the scenes of the last leg of the tour and Jeff's Today Show appearance after the break!
2012 marked the 3rd appearance of the giant helium Greg Heffley Wimpy Kid balloon in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. It is always exciting to walk, but even more so when the weather is terrific. it was in the 40s—NICE! This year we had a terrific group of ABRAMS employees walk wth the ballon. Some were relative veterans, others totally new to the experience. View photos from the parade after the break!
I love parades. It's true! I've been on the sidelines of parades for years while my kids were in marching band, but my favorite is the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade which I am lucky enough to march in. I've marched in the last two Thanksgiving Day Parades and it has been an extraordinary experience and surprisingly hard work. Read some interesting balloon facts after the break!
