This is a very nice highlighter. I think almost everyone should own a NARS multiple. You know, just because.
Anyway, this gives me a nice glow. Everyone told me I looked radiant. Pah! It's all makeup.
The only reason I don't give it 5 lippies is because of the spreadability (or lack thereof). I have to dot this unto my face as it's quite dry. Also it's not really buildable. If you have too little and you want to just build up slightly, you may end up with an overly shimmery face which is not (always) what you're going for for every day.
But otherwise, it's a fantastic product!
This is yet another Multiple by NARS that I totally adore. This is a beautiful and unique product because depending on your lipstick this will pull a little brown or pink (on me). If my lipstick is a nude colour then my look is very warm-earth toned and this pulls more brown on my cheeks and eyes; but if i wear a red lipstick (e.g. CdP R10 (sheered out with my fingers and a pink gloss on top) then my look is neutral and this pulls more pink on my cheeks with neutral pink/brown eyes. Both looks are very understated and very natural. As others have mentioned it's great for bronzing. I however use this as a blush, e/s, and lip stain (it's intended purposes) and I love it. If i want a pop of colour I add any pink or coral blush on top and/or simply apply a dark red colour. If using this solely as my lip colour, then I do apply lip balm on top. I will definitely repurchase these Multiples. I am a Multiple convert!!! Btw, I prefer using my fingers to apply this. For reference, I'm NC15- 20, NARS Gobi, and GA Luminous Silk/Maestro #3.
EDIT: I've dropped it down to 3 lippies because I cannot use this as an e/s nor a lip stain. As an e/s this smudges and creases like crazy. As a lip stain either it's too drying. Still good though as a blush but too expensive for it to be just that. No repurchase.
I got a mini size of this multiple and I've just started using it now that spring is around the corner.
It does give me a nice, healthy glow although I need to use it sparingly because I can see it looking orange on my skin tone. (Asian, NC30/C3)
I can see myself using this instead of blush for those minimal makeup days.
I wouldn't spend the money on a full size as I think there are other highlighters that are just as good for less money.

I love love LOVE this multiple. I was intimidated by bronzers and this one is definitely easy to use and does not overdo the brown. As always, NARS packaging is the best and their pigmentation is on point. It blends in beautifully with the rest of your makeup. Definite makeup staple!

This has become my go to product on the weekends. I stripe some on my cheeks and use a brush to blend. Then I load a little on the brush directly and blend on my forehead, nose, chin and neck. I also swipe some from my finger on my eyelids and then finish with a swipe of mascara, mineral veil and lip gloss. The perfect natural, finished look that glows in 2 minutes.
For my work day make up I use this too, but will layer it on top of my BB cream and add a pop of Nars Orgasm blush on my cheeks.
Excited to try more colors in the multiples.

Im AA so i use this for the perfect golden glow and i love it. Its easy to apply and is not a glitter bomb. I rub the top with blush brush and and apply on cheekbones, chin, and brows. It looks nice and doesn't mess up my foundation or blush. I have this in a few colors.

I just bought this and after I first applied it I was not happy. It looked spotty and muddy. I left it on and piddled around the house, about fifteen minutes later I looked in the mirror and loved the color. I think if you apply this over foundation or tinted moisturizer(I use TM) it may need time to settle. I am in love with this color, like everyone has said if gives such a natural warm glow.
This is one of my "must-have" beauty products. I have been using this for years and truly love it. Recently I have been layering this with NARS blush in Orgasm on top and love the way it makes my face glow. It gives me a nice healthy dose of color. On rushed mornings sometimes this (and mascara) are the only things I have time to put on and it truly brings my face to life. LOVE.
I have mixed feeling about this... When I first got it, I hated it. I tried putting it on my skin with my finger tips, a brush, a foundation brush, you name it, and I saw no difference. After coming home late the other night, and waking up early and feeling like death, I decided to give this another whirl, I figured maybe just maybe, eventually this be as good as everyone claims it would be. Well I was right, it gave me a nice glow, so that I appeared awake and refreshed. I don't know why it worked better today than other days, but hey I'll take it. Now, here's the con... It is quite pricey. And after reading some things online, I ordered a wet n' wild blush stick I believe in bronze, and it is the SAME color and lasts the same amount of time, and is $30 cheaper :/

I adore this multiple! I used to think multiples were only good for highlighting, but South Beach totally changed my mind. I saw on a blog where she used this on eyes, lips, and cheeks at the same time, and got this awesome monochrome bronzey glowy look. I did that, and it looked amazing! South Beach has an apricot undertone, which makes it perfect for us pale girls (I'm NC15/20). It is shimmery, but when you blend it out it looks glowy, not disco ball-y. It definitely has a warm tone, so cool ladies might want to think twice. It wears well on me too, but I'm not oily and I set my makeup with UD All Nighter spray. When I use it on my eyes, I put it over primer and it takes a while for it to crease, but when it does just a swipe with a finger will fix it. When it's on the lips, the apricot undertone keeps it from looking too brown, so it doesn't look weird on pale girls. Just make sure to put some balm underneath. This is a great way to get a summery bronze look when you are crunched for time. I will definitely be buying this multiple again!

December 2012
There they are: my two granddaughters, Luella and Martha. It was their first time to visit Santa at the local shopping centre. They were quite excited. But when the time came to sit on Santa's lap and tell him just what they wanted for Christmas, they changed their minds. They were emphatic that they did not want to sit on his lap or tell him anything about their desires and wishes for Christmas morning.
But my prayer for both of them has nothing to do with Father Christmas. What's my prayer? That they would run to be with the Christ-child; that they would even more emphatically embrace Him; that they would thrill to tell Him all about their wishes and desires.
Christ is the only reason for the season.

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 Luna!
Facts about Luna
- Breed: Basenji/Chow Chow Mix
- Color: Red/Golden/Orange/Chestnut - With White
- Age: Adult
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Female
Luna's Info...
I am already spayed and up to date with shots.
Please let us know you saw this dog on Adopt A Pet! All animals are spayed/ neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped, and have current rabies vaccines. With all adoptions we offer a free vet exam to the vet of your choice in Alachua County. Please visit our website, www.hhrescue.com, or call us at 352-281-4358 or email us at firstname.lastname@example.com for more information!!
Other Pets at Helping Hands Pet Rescue, Inc.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Luna, a Gainesville Basenji/Chow Chow dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Basenji/Chow Chow for sale in Gainesville, or seeking a Basenji/Chow Chow dog from a breeder in Gainesville.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Gainesville 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 Gainesville 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 Basenji/Chow Chow breeders who help with Basenji/Chow Chow rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Gainesville paves the way for another one to be saved.

Interviews with Scientists
Dr. Joseph Buxbaum is the Director of the Seaver Autism Center. Dr. Buxbaum discusses the SHANK3 gene, which helps synapses to properly function. Around 1% of children with ASD have SHANK3 mutations, making it one of the most common single-gene causes of autism. Dr. Buxbaum also discusses Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF1), which is the second drug aimed at treating core symptoms of autism, and is currently being tested on humans.
Dr. Kolevzon, Clinical Director of the Seaver Autism Center, develops new pharmacological treatments to target the core symptoms of autism. Dr. Kolevzon discusses his work with Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF1), which increases neural communication and may ameliorate issues of learning and memory in individuals with autism. Small trials of IGF1 have begun with children with SHANK3 deletion, a genetic condition held by ~1% of individuals with autism. If successful, Dr. Kolevzon and the Seaver Autism Center will conduct trials with the larger autism population.
Rhonda Charles is a 2010 ASF Grant Winner and a PhD Student in the Department of Genetics and Genomic Sciences at the Mt. Sinai School of Medicine. Ms. Charles' work focuses on the AVPR1A gene, which affects social behavior and anxiety in autism spectrum disorder. Her ASF- funded study puts the human AVPR1A gene into a mouse model, a key step that must occur before we can introduce pharmacological treatments for individuals with autism affected by AVPR1A gene mutations.

Dr. Buxbaum also discusses Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF1), which is the second drug aimed at treating core symptoms of autism, and is currently being tested on humans.
A small study by Dr. Eric Courchesne found that male children with autism had larger brain weights and 67% more prefrontal brain neurons than children without autism.
Dr. Eric Courchesne, keynote speaker at IMFAR 2011, describes the underlying brain biology of autism and shares new findings showing differences in brain structure in people with autism. These changes originate in the second trimester of prenatal life when there is a tremendous overproduction of brain cells in individuals with autism that create patches of functional abnormality. Dr. Courchesne describes how early intervention alters brain connections and structure, and discusses the "recovery genetics" of autism, including new understanding about why some kids recover from autism while other children continue to struggle.
In part 2 of his interview, Dr. Mandell discusses his research on how to organize, finance and deliver services to enhance outcomes for children with autism. Dr. Mandell discusses his work in assessing public and private insurance companies, the impetus for the autism mandate in Pennsylvania, and how the mandate is affecting families.
Dr. David Mandell of the Center for Autism Research (CAR) and the Children's Hospital of Pennsylvania (CHOP) studies how to implement evidenced based programs in real life settings. His Strategies for Teaching based on Autism Research (STAR) program is being tested in Philadelphia public school classrooms, with much broader implications for children and adults alike.
Earlier this week, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) at the Academy of Natural Sciences announced the election ASF founding board member Dr. Paul Offit and distinguished autism researcher, Dr. Daniel H Geschwind. ASF's Jonathan Carter spoke to Dr. Geschwind about his election:
Dr. Edward Brodkin of the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and Center for Autism Research (CAR) is using mice models to study the sociability of children with autism....
Dr. Bob Schultz has built the Center for Autism Research from the ground up. Dr. Schultz explains how CAR seeks to understand what causes autism and how CAR serves the community of families affected by autism. In training the next generation of scientists...
Dr. Timothy Roberts of Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) Center for Autism Research (CAR) is using MEG technology to measure the biological response to new medical treatments in children with autism. Eventually, he says, MEG will be used to determine which children with autism are most likely to respond to a given treatment. CHOP is participating in the ongoing arboclofen trials, sponsored by Seaside Therapeutics, for children with Fragile X and is using MEG technology as a noninvasive way to measure the biological changes in the brain that result from arboclofen intervention. Dr. Roberts also explains the value of imaging for developing new autism treatments and improving existing treatments.
Harold S. Koplewicz, M.D., is one of the nation's leading child and adolescent psychiatrists. Dr. Koplewicz is the founder and director of the Child Mind Institute (CMI)—a non-profit, started in 2010, dedicated to improving the mental health of children. Dr. Koplewicz is a member of the Autism Science Foundation's Scientific Advisory Board. ASF intern Max Rolison interviewed Dr. Koplewicz about the Child Mind Institute and psychiatric components of autism.
How do we improve the social involvement of children with ASD in schools? ASF-funded grantee Dr. Jill Locke trains school teachers to improve the social interaction of children with ASD in the classroom. With her ASF-funded research, Dr. Locke employs a model that she hopes will provide an effective and cost-efficient treatment for a wide-range of ASD social impairments.
Ricardo Dolmetsch, Ph.D., is an assistant professor of neurobiology at Stanford University. In 2007 he received the Society for Neuroscience Young Investigator Award, and in 2008 he received the NIH Pioneer Award for his work with induced pluripotent stem cells to study autism. Dr. Dolmetsch was a keynote speaker at IMFAR 2011. ASF intern Max Rolison interviewed Dr. Dolmetsch about his research and his unique role as both a scientist and the parent of a child with autism.
Craig Powell, M.D., Ph.D., is an assistant professor of neurology and psychiatry at the University of Texas Southwestern. Dr. Powell developed the first-ever animal model of autism, and he is the mentor of ASF 2011 post-doctoral grantee Haley Speed. ASF intern Max Rolison interviewed Dr. Powell about his current research and the use of mouse models in the study of autism.
Could where your child looks affect how he or she learns? Dr. Elena Tenenbaum explains her ASF-funded research, which explores how children with ASD differ in attentional distribution. Dr. Tenenbaum's research will lead to more effective early behavioral interventions.
Dr. Haley Speed explains why we need mouse models in autism research and how her ASF-funded research with the Shank3 mouse will improve the lives of children with Phelan-McDermid Syndrome and other forms of genetically-derived autism.
Dr. Haley Speed explains why we need mouse models in autism research and how her ASF-funded research with the Shank3 mouse will improve the lives of children with Phelan-McDermid Syndrome and other forms of genetically-derived autism.
Did you know that Pivotal Response Training is a naturalistic intervention for autism that can be administered to children as young as 9 months of age? Jessica Bradshaw explains how her ASF-funded research helps infants increase their social engagement and interaction, helping these children to progress more quickly.
Scientists can make a mouse with Rett Syndrome (a form of autism), but did you know that scientists have discovered how to reverse Rett Syndrome in mice? Grantee Christie Buchovecky explains how her ASF-funded study will build on this discovery and could eventually allow us to reverse Rett Syndrome in humans.
Watch the interview between ASF Pre-Doctoral Grantee Christie Buchovecky and ASF President Alison Singer at IMFAR 2011.
Dr. Eric London is an ASF scientific advisory board member, NAAR co-founder, Director of the Autism Treatment Laboratory at the New York State Institute for Basic Research in Developmental Disabilities, and Chief Science Advisor of the New York State Autism Consortium. In June 2011, Max Rolison, an intern at the Autism Science Foundation interviewed Dr. London on the importance of brain tissue research.
Dr. Helen Tager-Flusberg is the Director of the Lab of Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience at Boston University. She is also the newly elected president of the International Society for Autism Research (INSAR). In May 2011, ASF intern Max Rolison interviewed Dr. Tager-Flusberg about her research and her INSAR presidency.
Dr. Vaccarino is the Harris Professor in the Child Study Center and the Director of the Developmental Neurobiology Laboratory (Vaccarino Lab) at the Child Study Center.
She and a group of collaborating investigators recently formed the interdepartmental Program in Neurodevelopment and Regeneration, which focuses on Cellular alterations in neuropsychiatric disorders and the proliferation and differentiation of neural stem cells (NSCs) during prenatal and postnatal stages of cerebral development.
Rhea Paul, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, is a Professor and Director of the Communication Disorders Section at the Yale Child Study Center.
Dr. Paul conducts research on communication in autism spectrum disorders, including research on early identification of ASD, auditory preferences and vocal development in infants and toddlers, pragmatic and prosodic skills in school-aged children with ASD, increasing speech in preverbal children and improving conversational skills for high-functioning individuals.
Dr. Lombroso is the Elizabeth Mears and House Jameson Professor in the Child Study Center and the Director of Laboratory of Molecular Neurobiology.
Dr. Lambroso's lab studies how humans normally learn and how these processes are disrupted in various neuropsychiatric disorders. He is interested in a number of disorders including Autism, Tourette's syndrome, obsessive-compulsive disorder, as well as drug addiction and Alzheimer's disease. His work focuses on a brain-specific protein tyrosine phosphatase called STEP and its role in regulating intracellular signaling.
Dr. Chawarska is a Associate Professor in the Child Study Center and the Director of the Toddler Developmental Disabilities Clinic. She received her doctoral degree from Yale University.
Dr. Chawarska is currently conducting studies on face scanning and recognition, attentional aspects of face processing, as well as perception of direct gaze and gaze-related intentional action in the first three year of life. By determining which components of gaze and face processing are impaired and which are preserved in infants and toddlers with ASD, Dr. Chawarska will help advance our appreciation of mechanisms underlying social abnormalities in the early stages of the disorder. This evolving understanding of the condition will be consequential for designing early screening and intervention methods.
Fred R. Volkmar, M.D. is Irving B. Harris Professor of Child Psychiatry, Pediatrics, and Psychology and Director of the Yale University Child Study Center, Yale University School of Medicine. He is also the Chief of Child Psychiatry at Yale-New Haven Hospital, New Haven, CT.
Dr. Volkmar was the primary author of the American Psychiatric Association's DSM-IV autism and pervasive developmental disorders section. Dr. Volkmar's research focus is on mechanisms and treatment of autism and related disorders in individuals of all ages.
James McPartland is an Assistant Professor and Associate Director of the Developmental Electrophysiology Laboratory at the Yale Child Study Center.
Dr. McPartland's program of research employs electroencephalography to investigate the integrity of social brain systems in children with social disabilities. He is particularly interested in the developmental nature of social deficits in autism and the role that experience plays in shaping brain function and behavior over time. His work has revealed anomalies in temporal processing of faces in people with autism at the most basic stages of perception. The objective of Dr. McPartland's program of research is to develop biologically-based tools for earlier identification of autism and for the objective assessment of response to intervention.
Dr. Sara Jane Webb is a Research Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the University of Washington and a Research Affiliate for the Center on Human Development and Disability.
In November of 2010, Emily Hotez, an intern at the Autism Science Foundation, interviewed Dr. Webb about her role at the CHDD and the critical scientific research currently being conducted on autism spectrum disorders.
Dr. Rebecca Landa is the Director of the Center for Autism and Related Disorders (CARD) and the REACH research program at Kennedy Krieger Institute. She is also an Associate Professor of Psychiatry at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.

Hi all!
I am new to gardening and planting some vegetables to try out. I have some salad and spinach growing and noticed that some of the leaves have been chewed off. Not holes, just entirely off! No droppings, no slug trails, no bugs around that I can see either (i have tons of spiders). I am puzzled as last night, one of the seedling had a bit of leaf and a stem and this morning, that same seedling no longer had ANYTHING left. Stem pretty much eaten too!! What could it be?? My seedlings are in containers. How can I stop it if I dont even know what it is?? Hedghog? Rat?? Thanks for any help! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I usually think of some sort of animal when someone complains about entire plants being chewed off. I'm not familiar with might be the typical culprits in your country, but in the US I would suspect voles, rabbits, deer, mice/rats. |
In Switzerland I would suspect Field mice (aka Voles), deer, rabbits, gophers/groundhogs/woodchucks/hedgehog if the plants have been nibbled on. A bit of fence formed into a U and placed upside down over the plants might be all that is necessary to keep the wee bugger(s) from feeding on them. |

Twisting Arm Illusion DVD
by Shinkoh and Meir Yedid
The Twisting Arm Illusion was used by David Blaine on his Street Magic Special.
Performed by David Copperfield on the "Tonight Show" with Jay Leno, Harry Anderson on the "Tonight Show" with Johnny Carson, David Blaine on "Street Magic".
This is an impromptu routine, which is easy to do and uses absolutely no props. The magician asks a spectator to copy his actions. Both place their hands palm down on the table and begin turning them in a clockwise direction. The spectator turns his hand part way, while the magician turns his hand in a full circle! One and a half times!
This routine must be seen to be believed. On many occasions people have been so shocked that they actually screamed.
Includes everything you need to know and many of the latest innovations, which have never been tipped before. You will learn how to do three consecutive revolutions, cause sound effects, show your arm with twisted flesh, and much more.
Special DVD Features:
Bonus footage of Shinkoh, the creator, performing his latest handlings of the Twisting Arm Illusion.
Approximately 20 minutes.

A man who police say was holding a knife to a woman's throat was shot and killed at the Coral Point Apartments in Mesa early Saturday.
The man was shot and killed by police about about 1 a.m., nearly half an hour after responding to a report of a domestic violence call. According to Mesa Police, officers saw the man with his arm around the woman's neck with the knife to her throat.
Police had negotiated with the man for about 30 minutes but he refused to let the woman go. When he made threatening gestures to the woman, police shot him. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

I ordered l00 bulbs from White Flower Farm and it arrived last week. I warned DH that we would be planting bulbs soon. I ordered this same type (mixed)narcissus from them many years ago but several have died out. Most of their things are way too expensive but "The Works" deals are very reasonably priced. They are very nice sized bulbs. BTW: You Joplinites: DH wanted to drive down and view the rebuilding. He used to have stops in Joplin when he was on the road. What a tribute to all who live in that area....we were amazed at how wonderful everything looked. We finally found the damaged area by seeing all the new houses, light poles and lack of trees. I didn't realize how big Joplin is! We saw the new hospital going up and it was very impressive. I had planned to check out the Ozark Nursery, but we were limited on time (MIL visit) and missed it. Beautiful town. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Narcissus are an investment; they keep coming back if you don't mow them. I used to order lily bulbs from Van England but have gotten into the habit of buying cheap bulbs at the box stores. You may have tempted me to look at the collections. I notice the lack of trees in Joplin because I have been going there for years to visit my friend. In fall there were brilliant red, yellow and orange trees on his street. Between ice storms and tornadoes now there are no beautiful trees. This is a good time of year for a drive. It isn't too hot and we've had a few rains. I am looking forward to the craft fairs in the next few weeks. We always go to Bella Vista, Ark. Neosho has one this weekend. Theirs is not as big but we eat out afterwards at the Chinese restaurant and make a day of it. |

Hope your bulbs do well Glenda. It's more fun to get mixtures like that so there's a little mystery when they start to bloom. I planted some daffodils in late spring, wrong time to plant them I know but we were moving them from an aunt's house that passed away. I'm going to be so disappointed if they don't come back in the spring. Some were 'Tahiti' I think and very pretty. |

Advancing National Security Through Energy Security
Recently, I had the great privilege to watch our highly skilled sailors doing what they do best, and to witness the U.S. Navy's most sophisticated air and sea platforms perform complex operations using advanced biofuel and energy efficient technologies.
Last week during RIMPAC, the largest maritime exercise in the world, the U.S. Navy successfully demonstrated the Great Green Fleet, a Carrier Strike Group's aircraft and surface ships, on advanced biofuel to test the fuel's performance while conducting operations, including: fueling helicopters and jets from the deck of a nuclear-powered carrier; completing arrested landings of aircraft onto a carrier, the first ever using biofuels; refueling a destroyer while underway; and air-to-air refueling.
The demonstrations confirmed that advanced biofuels can be integrated seamlessly for the user and perform the same as traditional fossil fuel. The demonstration also showcased energy efficiency technology that increases combat capability.
The Navy is pursuing alternatives because the nation's reliance on foreign oil is a significant and well-recognized military vulnerability. The ability to use fuels other than petroleum is critical to our energy security because it will increase our flexibility and reduce the services' vulnerability to rapid and unforeseen changes in the price of oil. A $1 change in the price of a barrel of oil, for example, results in an approximately $30 million change in the Navy budget. This is why the Navy will only purchase operational quantities of biofuel blends when they are competitive with petroleum, period. We simply cannot afford to do it otherwise and will not do it.
Joining me at the demonstration was Chief of Naval Operations Jonathan Greenert, and the commanders of U.S. Pacific Fleet and U.S. 3rd Fleet. Their participation signaled to the Navy and the nation the Navy's commitment to pursuing alternatives to imported fossil fuels because we believe it is critical to our national security.
A viable advanced biofuels market can inject competition into the liquid fuel market, which could drive down the cost of liquid fuels and dampen price volatility. We recently pushed more competition into the shipbuilding industry, which allowed the Navy to bring down the cost of our ships. We can do the same for the fuel we purchase to power those ships and other platforms.
The Navy has always led in energy transformations, moving from wind to coal, coal to oil, and then pioneering the use of nuclear power. The Great Green Fleet was named in honor of the Great White Fleet that circled the globe beginning in 1907 and introduced America as a global power. It comprised the most advanced ships of its time; battleships made from steel and powered by steam, and represented America's greatness and ingenuity. The Great Green Fleet demonstration continues our long tradition of energy transformation by powering the Fleet with alternative fuels.
Ray Mabus is the United States Secretary of the Navy

HIT Strip Training
HIT strips utilize a series of long holds with a variety of grips including pockets, crimps, and slopers. The strips are placed equidistant apart on a 45 to 50 degree wall. Climbers use their left then right hands to train specific moves. Additional weight can be added to increase the intensity of the exercise.
HIT maximizes muscular failure within 30 seconds, works the body in specific climbing movements, and isolating specific grip positions. By working specific moves in a controlled setting, the muscles become fatigued faster, which means greater muscle growth and quicker, better gains.
Stop by GWPC and get stronger.

Exhibit: The Hidden Room in the House; Printmakers and the Art of Sublimation
"The Hidden Room in the House; Printmakers and the Art of Sublimation" is on exhibition within the University of North Florida Library and Special Collections through the month of February. The exhibit was curated by Emily Arthur, UNF Associate Professor of Printmaking.
Arthur is one of 33 American artists featured in the exhibit including the portfolio organizers Kathryn Polk (of New Mexico) and Sylvia Taylor (of New York). A complete list of the artists is below. Five UNF advanced printmaking students are also featured which include Jessie Barnes, Sarah Victoria Brown, Skyler Earnheart, Wai Chee (April) Sham Elizabeth Taber, Josh Quarti, Page Valtison, and Georgia Ward-Collins.
The tradition of printmaking exchange allows for the dissemination of prints between national and international artists. The portfolio organizers Kathryn Polk and Sylvia Taylor selected the participating artists and the concept of the portfolio exchange:
The Hidden Room in the House; Printmakers and the Art of Sublimation: We all have a dark side. There exists in each of us a psychological repository that lives beyond or on the periphery of awareness. Childhood memories, primordial urges, and inappropriate impulses inhabit this shadowy realm. Whether we repress, deny, project or sublimate, we cannot escape the shadow. Nor should we really want to, for even though the shadow can be creepy and frightening, it is also a treasure trove of rich, imaginal and energy-filled material. Indeed, Carl Jung declared the shadow to be gold. As artists, we are fortunate to be able to access dormant power and imagery through the process of sublimation. As printmakers, we have a unique ability through the production of multiples as well as the social and political nature of printmaking to share, learn, and cultivate common ground. – K. Polk & S. Taylor, 2013

Activating your USRobotics Cellular Modem
To start using the USR3500 USRobotics Courier® M2M 3G GSM Intelligent Cellular Modem you will need to acquire a SIM and wireless data services from a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) or Mobile Network Operator (MNO).
Where do I get SIMs and a data package?
USRobotics' preferred partner offers exclusive data rate packages for USRobotics customers that allow SIM quantity flexibility, static IPs, Internet Tunnels, VPNs, as well as expansive reach with coverage around the world.
MVNO | GSM North America | GSM Global |
Aeris Communications | Vodafone | |
Telit m2mAIR Mobile USRobotics Preferred Partner |
AT&T, Rogers (May 2014) | Vodafone, Telefónica |
Jazz Wireless Data | T-Mobile, Rogers | Telefónica |
KORE Telematics | AT&T, Rogers | Vodafone |
Raco Wireless | AT&T, Rogers | Telefónica |
Wyless | T-Mobile, Rogers | Telefónica, T-Mobile, O2 |
USRobotics recommends Telit m2mAIR Mobile for both enterprise as well as small and medium businesses. Many MVNOs do not allow accounts with small volumes, but with USR's partnership Telit m2mAIR Mobile will support accounts of all sizes.
What about retail SIMs? Retail SIMs are readily available but are designed for consumer use and may not include features required for business use. There are some features to take into consideration: data pooling, static IP, and security. Most retail carriers do not offer data pooling, but MVNO subscribers can aggregate data across their account and therefore can utilize smaller, less expensive data plans while still having access to larger amounts of overall data. Many M2M solutions such as remote management and out of band remote diagnostics are mobile terminated and may require a static IP, which may not be available from most retail carriers. Finally, security is very important and requires Internet Tunnels and in some cases additional encryption levels on a VPN, which are not available from retail carriers.
To learn more about our data rate plans and services or to sign up for services with Telit m2mAIR Mobile and receive USR's special rates, just give USRobotics Client Services a call at 1 (866) 944-3861 and they will help you weed through all the details and assist with the process of getting service.
Already have a wireless provider?
For customers that may require different solutions or may already have a partnership in place, the USR modem can easily be set to work with any GSM based network by changing the APN as described below.
Basic Steps for activation and installation:
- Set up a wireless data account with a network carrier or MVNO. Each carrier is different and may only offer GSM, CDMA, Satellite, etc. Some applications may also require additional services like higher level of encryption of VPN Tunnels, Static IP Addresses, Persistent connectivity (through modem or through service), or data pooling. See List of main M2M MVNOs above to compare. USRobotics recommends Telit m2mAIR Mobile and can help facilitate the process of acquiring an account and make the process quick and simple.
- Acquire SIM Card
- Install SIM Card into the modem
- Activate SIM Card
- Configure modem. You will need to program the Access Point Name (APN).
Changing the APN/IP on the USR3500
Enter AT+WOPEN=1 to start the Courier M2M application. A startup banner will display. Use AT+WOPEN=0 to stop the application.
Lib Version 1.9.1
Courier M2M Wireless Device
Application Started
To use IP data services, you need to configure an APN. Your cellular account needs to have data services, and the cellular provider must provide you with an APN string. * For this example "m2m.apn.com" will be used, replace this with the string provided by your cellular provider.
Enter AT$CGDCONT=1,m2m.apn.com to set the APN.
Use AT+CGREG? to verify GPRS registration.
A response with 0,1 indicates that your device is registered on the GPRS network. A response of 0,0 would indicate not registered. Once you are registered, Courier M2M will automatically activate a PDP context. Enter AT$IP to verify the device's IP address.
Refer to the Courier M2M Application Guide at http://www.usr.com/support/3500 for more information regarding data connections.

To make it easier on users, Larox made the Web site like a car quotation Web site." That's how Brian Mawson of Larox Inc. described the intuitive nature of the company's new sizing and specification tool, myFilterCreator, during its first public demonstration at the Achema trade show in Germany. The online tool allows users to safely input process data and liquid-solid separation requirements into onscreen modules in order to receive key data on equipment including pricing. It's designed to enable those who have the appropriate test or production data, as well as the necessary process details, to use this information to find the optimal equipment for a specific process. They can size the equipment and, by adding their specification requirements, produce a quotation in PDF format containing full technical specifications and standard drawings. They can then place an order for the filter created. The tool can be found at www.filtercreator.com.The company also has introduced the myLarox channel for the marketing and distribution of recently announced standardized products for solid-liquid separation including the Hoesch membrane and chamber filter presses and Pennevis RT filter. It will operate as a parallel operation to the Larox CPI and M&M marketing channels.

Apple retail staffers are scouring Brooklyn (NYC) for an appropriate space for a retail store, according to the Racked Web site. Their story speculates on which neighborhood might eventually be selected: Red Hook, Smith Street, Dumbo, Downtown or Williamsburg, with the latter being the most logical choice, Racked says. Right now, Apple has two stores in Manhattan and one in Staten Island, but has not occupied The Bronx, Queens or Brooklyn. [The Gothamist Web site tips the area on Atlantic Avenue around Clinton Avenue. Take a look on Google Street View.]

- September 13, 2007 at 2031
Remember that Queens and Brooklyn are the two largest boroughs of New York City, so it is only logical Apple would start looking to put a store in one or both places.
- September 19, 2007 at 1558
Right, but Apple needs to decide whether it wants to be hip or whether it wants to be in a place where there is plenty of foot traffic and easy transportation.
Red Hook: in 5-10 years, will probably be "the place" and an Ikea is going in there pretty soon, but the current population is heavily working class and there's no good public transportation there.
Downtown: Flatbush Avenue and Fulton Street are dumps. They don't want to be there, although the presence of an Apple Store there could help revitalize the area. But a store in the center of Brooklyn Heights might make sense.
Williamsburg: Very hip and lots of new apartment condos are rising, but no one goes there who doesn't live there.
Dumbo: Rich loft dwellers and a few hip stores, but it's a relatively scary place to be walking around alone, especially at night. Long term a great place to be, but short term I would predict the store would be empty most of the time.
Smith Street: South of Atlantic is too quiet; North of Atlantic is kind of dumpy. They'd probably be better off on Court Street, near the movie theatre, but that area can be dumpy and uninviting also.
My recommendations: Montague Street in Brooklyn Heights (although zoning for a big Apple store would probably be tough) or 7th Avenue in Park Slope (although 5th Avenue is hipper and has all the good restaurants.)
Queens: Very unhip, but there's a giant space available on Queens Blvd in Rego Park where CompUSA used to be. That could be a killer location for Apple, but it's certainly not like being on 5th Avenue or in Soho. Another good area for Apple would be in Bayside and maybe even Austin Street in Forest Hills. A different approach would be to locate near Steinway Studios in Long Island City.
- November 13, 2007 at 1239
Hey, there's an Apple Store on Staten Island, so I can't see they'd be afraid of putting one in Queens.
There's a Loehmann's going in where CompUSA used to be, so that's obviously out. I'd be happy to see one open on Austin Street or even Atlas Park, but the logical first location would probably be the Queens Center Mall.
- January 6, 2008 at 1148
I think Atlas Park, although a nice attempt at a different type of mall environment, is a disaster — I don't think it generates much traffic and there's no interesting stores there. The next six months should be key – to see how many stores there go under. There is plenty of room (and buildings) there for more expansion, but I don't see it happening.
Before the expansion, the Queens Center Mall was the highest-grossing (per sq ft) mall in the U.S. — by doubling in size, it's probably lost that distinction, but in any case, it's a very downscale place and I don't think it's a place that Apple would want to be, regardless of the traffic. Except for iPod sales, I don't see that mall's customers as Apple's customers.
Although it doesn't generate as much traffic as a large scale indoor mall, I think the outdoor mall in Bayside might be a better Queens location for Apple. And I still think some large obvious spot on Queens Blvd would be good for Apple, although not very hip. It might be really cool if Apple knocked down some of the incredibly awful architecture on Austin Street west of Continental Avenue and built a totally new facility. But I don't see that happening either – it's too neighborhood oriented.

The teens were out in full force this week, music-on-TV fans! From first times to first loves — even first scooters — there were notable songs from The Secret Circle, Switched at Birth, Surburgatory, The Vampire Diaries, and Pretty Little Liars. Meanwhile, there was beauty in tragedy on One Tree Hill, The Voice makes it first appearance with a knock-out performance, suspicion ruled on Grey's Anatomy and Grimm (though only one of the above involved fire dancing I'm sorry to report), a serial killer got his groove on in BBC America's Being Human, and the gang from Happy Endings got gangsta with it on Penny's birthday. Want more still? We also liked "show tunes" from Ringer, Californication, and The Good Wife. Check out our picks below. (Warning for those still catching up on DVR: SPOILERS ahead!) READ FULL STORY

TV Jukebox: 'American Idol,' 'Smash,' 'Cougar Town,' and more music-on-TV moments
Rainy days and Mondays may have gotten Karen Carpenter down, but the rain washes away old heartbreaks for at least a couple of our favorite characters in this latest TV Jukebox.
A pathetic fallacy of a rainstorm made for a new lease on love in this week's How I Met Your Mother, and a downpour was key to an impromptu proposal on Parenthood — though, thankfully, not on Cougar Town; otherwise they'd still be cleaning up the wet toilet paper!
Elsewhere, crazy dreams came true on Smash and American Idol, paint went splat for science's sake on CSI, and sexytimes abounded on Nikita and Being Human. That's without mentioning the "show tunes" from Glee, House of Lies, Private Practice, Body of Proof, Fringe, and Hart of Dixie. Click through to see our picks.

The Black Keys, Radiohead, Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg to headline Coachella fest
The Black Keys and Radiohead, plus a double bill of Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg lead the lineup for this spring's annual Coachella Music and Arts festival in Indio, Calif. The event spans two weekends this year, April 13-15 and April 20-22. In addition to the headliners, dozens of buzzworthy bands, both new and old, will perform, including Bon Iver, the Arctic Monkeys, M83, Florence + the Machine, and punk icons the Buzzcocks. The full lineup was posted on the festival's Facebook page today.
The festival will run two identical weekends this year for the first time ever, with all of the acts signed on to perform both weekends. Rumors ranging about who would play the festival had been running rampant around the Web practically since last year's festival ended.
Who are you most excited to see at Coachella?

TV Jukebox: '90210,' 'Glee' feature our favorite songs on TV this week
Christmas was in the air this week, and so was tragedy. From car crashes (Gossip Girl) to motorcycle busts (90210), things were sad, y'all! Even when we were laughing, we were crying (How I Met Your Mother). But, with a new year only a few weeks away, there was a bit of hope as a long-simmering relationship made headway (Hart of Dixie), old friends were reunited (Glee), and Kalinda Sharma just kept on being awesome (The Good Wife).

December's 'VH1 Divas' adds Chaka, Eryka, Estelle, and -- yes -- some boys
Divas, make way! VH1 has added a bevy of other ladies — and, yes, some dudes, too — to the line-up for its annual special VH1 Divas, including Chaka Kahn (pictured here), Erykah Badu, Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings, Estelle, Marsha Ambrosius. The non-diva entities –i.e. those who have a Y chromosome — added include Boyz II Men and Travie McCoy.
The seven new acts join the previously announced divas, which include Kelly Clarkson, Mary J. Blige, Florence Welch, Jennifer Hudson, Jessie J, and Jill Scott. The Roots will serve as the house band for the engagement.
VH1 Divas will celebrate soul this year, honoring so-called "soulful cities" — Chicago, Detroit, London, Memphis, and Philadelphia — that inspired the participating divas and their art. The special airs Monday, Dec. 19, at 9 p.m. on VH1.

Florence + The Machine behind the scenes: An EW video exclusive
The dog days may be over, but you can go back to where it all began in the brand-new behind-the-scenes video of Florence + The Machine.
Featuring footage shot during the making of her recent, excellent Ceremonials, viewers are treated to not only exuberant performance of "Shake it Out" and "What The Water Gave Me," but also her musings on the nitty-gritty of the recording process.
Like? Well, lying on the floor singing seance songs, for one — and explaining a studio instrument that she claims makes a sound, "like a zombie's face being mashed in." Listen in at 2:52 and try and tell us that's not an accurate description of what you're hearing.
Filmed to support The Creators Project, an arts initiative of Vice and Intel, the clip lets fans follow Welch's excitement at recording at the famed Abbey Road Studios, as well as a trip down memory lane with Isa Summers to her very first studio–complete with a name-inspiring drawing. Sadly, the spaceman on the picture didn't make it into the band.
