Canwood Furniture Whistler Junior Twin Low Loft Bed with Built-In Ladder
compromise for two wanting top bunk Melissa from kansas– Verified Buyer This bed was a perfect compromise for our children as we had two kids fighting about who would get to sleep on the top bunk of a bunk bed. We opted for these beds instead of a traditional bunk bed so both kids win the "top bunk" argument. We went with a lower loft because of the age of our children. They cannot stand underneath but there is still lots of room to play/store toys. They like having an 'office, fort, secret clubhouse, garage, house....' The use of the underneath space knows no limits. |
Great bed for the price. Shalico from Burr Oak, MI– Verified Buyer My husband assembled this bed in 1-2 hours. It looks rich and seems sturdy. My 2.5 years old is a good climber and has has no problems getting in and out of it bu himself. My only two complaints are that the wood is a little soft. My son put a scratch in the railing with one of his toy cars. The other problem was that the bed had a VERY strong chemical odor that is still lingering slightly after about 2 months. I think it was the formaldehyde treatment they do on the wood. Other than that, well all love it. We bought the matching dresser and 2 door cabinet. Those were both easy to build and look great too. |
Looks great better quality than expected! Jamie from Bloomimgton-Normal, IL– Verified Buyer I bought this bed for my 6 year old daughter, and she loves it -- there is enough room below to play, and for a 3-drawer dresser or small bookshelf. We used a flat sheet under the mattress to drape over the end of the bed as a little curtain. The quality seems very nice, and looks more expensive than it was. |
Awesome Bed for Toddler! Mrs. Berry from Gaithersburg, MD– Verified Buyer I ordered this bed, in white, for my 3.yr old. She transitioned from a toddler bed, to her big girl bed. |
perfect for my 5 year old! Amy from Ohio– Verified Buyer Put this together today. My 12 year old nephew did most of the work. We had no trouble with the directions and no missing parts. Took us about an hour to assemble. |
Very Nice But.... Dominic from Port St Lucie, FL– Verified Buyer It is a very nice bed, my son loves it! But here's the problem, IF you want to change the ladder to the other (right side), get someone who's mechanically inclined. On a scale of 1-5, 5 being the most skilled, 3-4 is fine. Just be prepared to countersink the 2 set screw caps so they fit properly & pre-drill 4 additional holes in the ladder & bed frame for additional security of the ladder. I pre-drilled & countersunk & used 3" course drywall screws because that's all I had lying around but 2-1/2" will suffice... other than that, it's a very nice bed.. |
My son LOVES this bed Crystal from Greenville, TX– Verified Buyer My 3 year old adores this bed. His first response was "I have a ladder!" It arrived quickly, and was easy for my spouse to assemble. We have placed toy baskets and such under the bed, which frees up space and makes his room look bigger. We attached a battery powered led light under the bed to one of the slats, and it turned out to be a pretty cool play or reading space. It's sturdy enough that I can lay down with him and read a book, and the rails are tall enough that I am comfortable that he will not fall out. For late night potty trips we have a night light, but he has no problem getting up and down the ladder. I am very happy with this purchase. |
Exactly what my daughter wanted Nicole from Houston, TX– Verified Buyer After seeing a similar bed on Pinterest, my 4 year old decided this was exactly what she wanted, and she has loved it! We put some flower lights under it so she has a play space and still has her cute bed in top. My only complaint is that it said the ladder can be on either end, but we could not figure out any way to make that happen. If we tried to do it the way the instructions said, there wasn't a way to make it work because there weren't holes in the right places. But it's a great bed, for a great price, and set up was pretty straight forward. |
Perfect for my 5 year old!!!!! Marcel from Decatur, GA– Verified Buyer He absolutely loves his new bed, this is an upgrade from his toddler bed and it has completely changed the way he feels about his room and even himself a bit. Before he would always spend time in his 10 year old brother's and only retreat to his room for bed time during the school week. Now he wants to spend all of his time in his room enjoying his bed and desk. He loves the fact that his able to slide his desk under his bed when company is over. The extra room is such a plus. Great Job to whomever created this. |
My son loves his bed Catherine from Philadelphia, PA– Verified Buyer– Top 1000 Reviewer We've had this bed about a month now. I have two minor issues but still love it enough to give it 5 stars. First, the two long rails that run the length of the bed were labeled wrong (opposite). Its not difficult to figure out (took me longer than it should have, duh), but it's something the company should correct. Second, like another buyer, I had to re-tighten the hardware after a few weeks. No big deal. I will continue to check it periodically. |

I'm told that maverick film director Lasse Hallstrom left CAA and returned yesterday to United Talent and agents there Tracy Jacobs, Shana Eddy, Jeremy Zimmer. But Hallstrom's CAA motion picture lit agent, Spencer Baumgarten, doesn't know it yet. I called over to 2000 Avenue Of The Stars, and his office thinks he still reps the helmer. (Oops!) Hallstrom directed Richard Gere in the new and well-reviewed Miramax pic about Howard Hughes' bogus biographer Clifford Irving, The Hoax.

Stuffed and Twice Baked PotatoesThese were absolutely delicious! They are time consuming to make so I usually make several batches and freeze them but they are well worth it! — webtexan 2/16/2009 |
Baked French ToastWe loved it! I cooked the meat in the crock pot on high for about 3 hours. It was very tender. Then I added the rest of the ingredients for about 2 hours and then finished it in a pan on the stove. — 8/14/2006 |
Ham and Potato BakeGreat recipe. My husband even liked it! Make sure to cook the potatoes in the center until very tender. — 8/8/2006 |

Prince Charles said Tuesday that organized persecution of Christians in the Middle East has reached a "crisis" point and that Christianity is in danger of disappearing from its birthplace, which would result in the world losing something "irreplaceably precious."
"It seems to me that we cannot ignore the fact that Christians in the Middle East are, increasingly, being deliberately targeted by fundamentalist Islamist militants. Christianity was, literally, born in the Middle East and we must not forget our Middle Eastern brothers and sisters in Christ," the Prince of Wales said at an Advent reception for Middle East Christians.
"Today, the Middle East and North Africa has the lowest concentration of Christians in the world – just four percent of the population and it is clear that the Christian population of the Middle East has dropped dramatically over the last century and is falling still further," he continued. more >>
A church in Wisconsin has filed a motion against an atheist group suing the Internal Revenue Service over its alleged refusal to enforce a ban on church politicking.
Holy Cross Anglican Church of Wauwatosa, headed by Benedictine Abbot Father Patrick Malone, filed the motion to intervene last week in U.S. District Court.
Holy Cross Anglican's motion was done in response to the Madison, Wis.-based Freedom From Religion Foundation's lawsuit against the IRS. more >>
A British journalist has denounced a recent British Broadcasting Corporation interview wherein recently deceased human rights activist Nelson Mandela was compared to Jesus Christ.
Dominic Lawson wrote in a column published by the UK Daily Mail on Sunday that it was "absurd for the BBC to compare him to Christ."
"Mandela's greatness is not in doubt. His ability to work with and, apparently, forgive those who incarcerated him for 27 years in appalling conditions does conform to behaviour we might characterise as saintly," wrote Lawson. more >>
A Texas diocese that opted to break away from The Episcopal Church over theological differences has filed a legal response before the state supreme court.
The Episcopal Diocese of Fort Worth filed Friday in response to TEC's motion for a rehearing regarding the legal dispute over the name and property of the diocese. In the 17-page document, the breakaway diocesan leadership argued that TEC's lawsuit over the property should be dismissed.
"TEC has no more control over Appellants' property or affairs than Royal Dutch Shell has over the property or affairs of ExxonMobil," reads the response in part. "The Court noted probable jurisdiction of this direct appeal two years ago. By May 2014, it will have been on this Court's docket for three years. It is time to dispose of it." more >>
A Pennsylvania Episcopal church body will soon undergo a major two-pronged construction project with an estimated price tag of $110 million.
The Philadelphia Episcopal Cathedral plans to hold a ground-breaking ceremony for the project on Thursday afternoon, with a request on their website that guests RSVP for the occasion.
One part of the project will focus on the Cathedral Center and the other part will focus on an apartment tower financially connected to the Cathedral. The Very Rev. Judith A. Sullivan, dean of the Philadelphia Episcopal Cathedral, told The Christian Post that the immense funding has been secured. more >>
The Church of England said it would "repent" for its previous homophobia in a major new report on human sexuality, but rejected the idea that traditional teachings on marriage should be seen as homophobic.
The Anglican Communion also rejected notions that the report, which recommends that clergy be allowed to "accommodate" same-sex relationships, contradicts traditional teachings, as some news headlines have suggested that clergy can start "blessing" gay marriage.
"The recommendations do not propose any change in the church's teaching on sexual conduct. They do propose that clergy, with the agreement of their Church Council, should be able to offer appropriate services to mark a faithful same sex relationship," a statement on the Church of England's website explains. more >>

I have spoken with 3 shipping companies in Germany and no-one knows that lead has been declared a hazardous materail that is not allowed to be shipped in or out of the E.U ( 2 companies actually laughed at the idea) ... can you kindly direct me to where this has been announced ?

No the only evidence that i'm aware is this new Fraktal coming out of the UK to the USA and having the bulb removed and shipped back to the supplier.The boat apparently was order'd turn key and arrived missing the bulb.This is all 3rd hand therefore Graham Bantock would be the best person to be in the loop on what is actually going on or maybe if everybody is jumping the gun.One of you UK guys need to give Graham a call and ask him.

In the case in question here the boat was shipped from the UK to the USA and the bulb was not allowed to be shipped and returned to sender in the UK. It was deemed to be hazardous material. At least that is what I understand. But I have checked with UPS in the USA and they say lead is not a problem to ship and another forum member checked in Germany and he was told lead was not a problem there. But I know for sure that China will not ship lead anymore, several RC boats manufactured in China now have steel bulbs. At first they got away with it by painting the bulbs but that didn't last long. I also know that a lot of boats have come from the UK to the USA and have not had a problem. I am the IOM registrar in the USA and believe me a bunch of boats have come this way in the last few years since I took over that job and see all the registrations. So....the question is, is this just a single case of an over zealous shipping agent or a real problem. |

well the Chinese will ship lipo batts where the USA will only do so within the US but not international now thats a weird one,so them not shipping lead is worrysome.Bottom line is to ask Graham or Lorna Bantock what the real story is. |

Flip The Script: The Past And Present Of North Miami Senior High School
Fifty years ago, North Miami Senior High School students lived in neighborhoods where most kept their doors unlocked at night. They say they felt safe riding their bicycles throughout town – some streets weren't even paved. Today, many students at the school say they don't feel safe in their school or their neighborhoods.
North Miami Senior High's demographics have also changed. In 1960, the segregated school was all white. Today, most students are of Haitian descent. According to the school, 31 out of 2,700 students are white.
When WLRN's Ted Grossman, a 1960 graduate of the school, attended his 50-year reunion in 2010, he interviewed other alumni about what it was like growing up in North Miami during that time. Under the Sun's Trina Sargalski spoke with current North Miami High School students Iyanna Pierre-Louis, Dwinie Teresa Belladent, Anne Noel and Duval Hyppolite. They interviewed each other and other students about what life is like today in North Miami.
Julia Longoria helped produce Ted Grossman's piece. Special thanks goes to North Miami High School Adult Education Principal Jean Coty Ridore, Richemonde Domond, Coach Pierre Louis and the other teachers and administrators of the 21st Century Afterschool Program.

The Enchanted Cave 2
Delve into a strange cave with a seemingly endless supply of treasure, strategically choos
4.36 / 5.00 34,067 ViewsGhostbusters B.I.P.
COMPLETE edition of the interactive "choose next panel" comic
4.08 / 5.00 12,345 ViewsWARNING: MADE IN ABOUT 6 HOURS
I wanted to do this jam, but I had stuff going on this weekend. So, I made a game as fast as I could.
Use your mouse and a little bit of thought to uncover the secret inside the cabin in the woods.
Well I did like the game because it had no enemies but i felt something was off with mouse pointer. When clicking things with the point, it didn't seem to work. When I started to use the base of it though, then it started working. So my first few attempts were spent wondering why I couldn't click anything until I started to randomly click around the objects wondering if the click box's were just misplaced, and then I noticed it was the base of the pointer that only worked for me. So overall, I spent more time figuring that out then actually beating the game, which took literally two minutes.
Ya, the point of the mouse is the bottom left of the pointer. It's a downwards pointing hand.
Although this was only made in six hours, this game really needs serious work.
first is the environment, their really is nothing to capture my interest in this scene. Some games use a sense of mystery, which is most common in these types of games, but their really is nothing here.
second, the gameplay is way too easy. there is no challenge. it's completely predictable, and the mouse graphic wasn't aligned correctly.
I understand that their is a time limit, but I think you can do better then this.
Great game but you forgot to make the end of the mouse the middle point so it clicks right.
Mouse seems to work alright for me. It's a downward pointing hand, in case you just couldn't tell what it was.
The game is poorly animated, and has no real place on newgrounds in my opinion because there are many games with ideas like this and it does not need another one that has no story line or value to it

Alameda: Longtime butcher Joe Scalise dies at 80
Joe Scalise has died, a man whose friendliness, hard work and commitment to quality helped make his family butcher shop an Alameda institution for more than three-quarters of a century. Known by legions of loyal customers as "Joe the Butcher," Scalise passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on Dec. 19. He was 80. Joe Scalise learned about sausages, steaks and other cuts of meat from his father, "Papa Joe," who opened the original Joe Scalise & Sons Butcher Shop at Chestnut Street and Encinal Avenue in 1935, just a year after Joe was born.

I would use them together, but I have a thing against too much alliteration. I'm weird in that sense, haha. If the last name starts with the same letter, I don't mind, but, siblings and middle names, I can't use the same initial. (Unless of course like, all the children are like, Leighton James, Emma Jennifer, Sophia Jane, William Jackson, etc). I also can't seem to use similar sounding endings. Addison, Harrison and Leighton are lovely names, but I'd never be able to use Harrison + Addison together. I love each one separately though!

While the business might be more interested in short term gain, the government ought to be long-term driven. China is not a friend of the US, let's be honest about this, so from policy point of view, we need this control no matter how. it is the matter of streamlining the process, but not about getting rid of it.
hahaha at the cross road now, it is hard to maintain high tech forever, thing will go obsolete no matter what.
Just look at what happened to Russia when they sent China their 'high tech' like the SU-27! China was supposted to order 129 SU-27's from Russia in the deal, then the CCP cancels the order after 24 SU-27s are delivered. China saying that they suddenly had no more need to purchase the other 105 SU-27s! Then, 10-15 years later, the Chinese announce they have built the J-11B, which looks remarkably like the SU-27 from nose to tail' on the Chinese jet!
No doubt, the CCP will do the same thing to the US if we allow China to have our high tech, so why place ourselves into the same 'ECONOMIC SECURITY RISK' as the Russians have!
One final note, didn't a so-called private Chinese company in Macao purchase the Varyag carrier from the Ukraine stating that the ship was going to be turned into a 'floating casino?' And wasn't one of the stipulations of the sale of the Varyag by the Ukrainians be that the hull not be used for military purposes? Yet, today the Varyag has been turned into a Chinese military carrier in violation of the agreements by this so-called private Chinese company! To me, China is as honorable as North Korea in honoring their agreements..........................so providing high tech to China will certainly by a mistake.............................so no deal!
@OODA loop STAT.
isn't BigMac make in China looks and taste the same as BigMac make in USA?
OODA loop STAT wrote: No doubt, the CCP will do the same thing to the US if we allow China to have our high tech, so why place ourselves into the same 'ECONOMIC SECURITY RISK' as the Russians have.
you don't have a choice your in great depression and you have no money to run your gov't you have to work with ccp thats good for your country to survive otherwise you end up occupy wall street.
The Chinese can innovate too as great gains are being made in spaces, aviations, infrastrutures, etc. High tech sanctions are becoming more and more irrelevant everyday. I think that is what the Chinese think.
European countries are trying to go around the embargos and sell to the Chinese. I wonder what they think too
A historical event, when the Chinese was pulled into hellholes by its own cultural revolution, everybody went to the farm but not growing food, and consequently, there was a famine. The West, which hated Chinese all along had all kinds of sanctions and embargos on China, refused to provide food and indrectly kill tens of millions of Chinese. Then as now, they blame the Chinese for killing te=hemselve, but in fact it was the West who were very happy to starve others to death. How many younger people understand history and the facts.
Sanctions/Embargo kills,
Sure the technology that the EU sells to China is allowed........................................from the 1960s or the 1970s.
The current high tech is still banned to China, and it requires the complete consensus of all EU countries to allow China any high tech! So nice try but you show your own ignorance in this regard!
Please don't blame the west for Mao's imfamous campaigns of the Great Leap Backwards and the Cultural Destruction of China on the US. That was, and surely is, the fault of following the failed campaigns of a incompetent leader!
has identity crisis, last month was spitting at China now kisses their butts
In 1995, China secured a $2.5 billion production agreement which licensed China to build 200 Soviet-designed Sukhoi Su-27SK aircraft using Russian-supplied kits.
oda loomp stat,
Yes, and what did the CCP do regarding that agreement? The CCP cancelled the entire order after only about 24 SU-27s were delivered in kit format! Then, 10-15 years later, the CCP announces the J-11B carbon copy of the SU-27!
China today wants to purchase 48 SU-35s from Russia for a reported 4 billion US dollars, and Russia would be stupid to fall into the same 'maneuver' that the CCP used in the SU-27 deal!
Don't be surprised when China decides to cancel the SU-35 order after only one or two SU-35s are delivered, if the Russians are dumb enough to believe that China will purchase all 48 SU-35s! After all, it's easy to see that in another 10-15 years, the CCP will announce another indigenous fighter jet that looks remarably just like an SU-35 Russian jet!
China's version of R & D is known as 'Recieve and Duplicate' to the world, so why should the Russians expect China to honor the SU-35 deal?
This would be yet another blunder in a long line of dumb mistakes that the U.S. has made in its trade dealings with China. Any high technology that China would obtain from the U.S. would be quickly copied and used in their products that compete with our own. China is already stealing billions of dollars worth of U.S. intellectual property each year, and now the U.S. is thinking about giving them access to more? Stupid. What the U.S. should do is punish China for engaging in industrial espionage by implementing steep tariffs of China's products and blocking some that are based stolen U.S. technology.
It's a matter of time before China becomes the most innovative nation. At that point, US can't sell anything to china. Stupid postings here obviously don't own any stock.
America is on the verge of bakruptcy.If it does not sell now the technology will become obsolete soon. with China technical research and power Maybe american technology can be eaten to save country from bankruptcy.
Copying and pirating is an American trademark starting as early as the second w.w. from german scentists.
Holier than thou attitude ranting wont work today unless you have Gobbels (Hitler propaganda chief) as yo adviser.
What you don't sell to the Chinese today, they will make them tomorrow.
Did the US or Russia sell their nuclear bomb-making technology or Long March rocket technology to China?
What the US doesn't want to sell to China, the Europe, Japan, Israel and Russia will be happily to substitute. It is stupid for the US to think that it can stop the sales of hi-tech stuffs to China. The rest of "US allies" made hundreds of billions every year selling to China.
High tech from USA. Well there are products from USA that are high tech but these are also made in Germany, Frrance, Swiss and other countries that sell those to China and make big bucks. You cannot hold back a product for in the mordern age.
The US now finally realized that limiting high tech sale to China will only make China stronger. Now China is on the verge of surpassing the US on nearly every front, in some cases already surpassed, for example, high-speed trains. In just 2011 alone, China has launched it's own equivalent of GPS, the Beidou system, breaking the US monopoly, launched 5th generation fighter jet J-20. Put into service the worlds fastest train, launched it's first aircraft carrier, succeeded in space docking and about be certified for it's commercial jet the ARJ21. Can you imagine what will happen in 2012? Since the US started restricting it's "high-tech" sales to China, China's ability to develop its own technology has speed up and has gained the ability to develop more core technologies on its own. The U.S. can no longer afford to lose opportunities of working with China or its own technologies will become obsolete.
For much of the last half-century, changing China through economic reform seemed to make far better sense than transforming the country through political revolution. Xi Jinping is trying to flip that on its head.
New legal developments that help environmental non-profits sue polluters now offer some hope for those fighting the degradation of China's ecosystem.
There appears to be mounting concern in the Chinese Communist Party about resistance to Xi Jinping's anti-graft crusade, raising the possibility Beijing could extend its crackdown to target officials who are insufficiently loyal.
As 2015 dawns, a key task facing the party is to combine legal reforms with anticorruption efforts in such a way that China can finally break free of the culture of graft that underpins public cynicism about the country's leaders.
Stories out of central China's Henan province highlight a major challenge for Chinese President Xi Jinping's anticorruption crusade: to not only to halt graft but also--once malfeasance is contained--to prevent it from reappearing.

Something to test tomorrow Resetting Home in flight could be dangerous, but would also give interesting opportunities. Like circling around a building in Home Lock. |

2. OIS (off/standard/active) - though I seldom use this. 3. One inch CMOS sensor. 4. A full manual mode with controls for aperture, shutter, ISO, and white balance. 5. Relatively light weight (238-240g). Actually, I prefer manual settings with an f stop of over 6 in order to get a significant depth of field for focus. F1.8 is too shallow for aerial videography for my uses. |

The MC needs to be on the ground to record the GPS data including home AGL altitude. |
Feb 16, 2013, 08:31 PM | ||
For the gyros in the IMU to properly initialize, the Phantom needs to be standing still until the yellow LED stops blinking. And for it to get proper GPS lock you need to wait until the red LED stops blinking, indicating it sees 6 or more GPS satellites.
After those steps are successfully completed it will automatically record the Home position at the moment you first move the throttle up. Quote:
But, as there is a manual method provided to allow a change to a new Home position, why wouldn't that work while flying? My question was, what happens when that new Home position includes a non-zero above ground altitude, somewhere up in the air? I could see how that might be useful if, for instance, your take-off position is surrounded by trees that are taller than 20 m. In a fail-safe return to home incident you can't be sure that the Phantom will clear the trees on its way home. But if you take off straight up from your clearing, then manually reset the Home position to that directly overhead location, at an altitude above the trees, you could be assured that the Phantom will always climb to at least 20 m above the treetops on its way home. Make sense? But what I want to know, would the Phantom return to that Home position in the sky and simply shut off thinking it had landed, or would it continue a slow controlled descent through that recorded altitude until it actually landed on the ground, some distance below its Home position? Exactly. There are several interesting uses that could be achieved with this. The only thing is, you'd have to be prepared for the Phantom landing on top of that building in the case of a fail-safe return to home condition. |

When I plugged it all in to try it out, same thing, couldn't see anything in the goggles. Just white screen. Make sure the video transmitter and goggles are set to the same channel. Changing channels on the goggles I got all-white, static, static, static,... So I could tell the first channel was the one that was working. Turns out I just needed to adjust the brightness and contrast settings on the goggles. They were set to max brightness so I only saw a white screen. Simple as that. Give that a try first. |

Not believing in God is like not shaving.
'Oh you're growing a beard' people say.
'No, I'm just not shaving.'
To me, It is as if I was at a party. I realized the party was a drag. After sobering up I realized just how abysmal and un-gratifying the party was in reality. I drove home, and deleted God's number from my contacts list.
...and it turned out God's no. wasn't connected anyway. So you concluded the whole thing was a drunken hallucination.
Not believing in God is like having the biggest burden lifted off my shoulders. I feel so much lighter and more free to explore the world without God-colored goggles. Moreover, I feel relieved.
This may be hard for some to accept, but it's nice to be able to take science at face value without thinking there some evil spirit lurking behind it all trying to deceive the hearts of men. So the the whole world of the sciences has opened up to me. AND I LOVE IT!!!!
Well it's like in The Matrix when Morpheous says : Youv'e been living in a dream world Neo! Waking up and not believing in God makes me feel free.
As someone who doesn't believe in god, and doesn't shave, I approve this message.
To me, not believing in god is just natural. I can't put words to it any better than you have. It's just like not believing in santa or the boogyman.
...about 25% of respondents said they were both created and evolved. That ridiculous answer must have been easier than fighting their brainwash.
True. Deprogramming and Learning both take time.

'Versions of Her' exhibition in Dubai
Artist Nik Nejad explores femininity at 8th Street Studio in Al Quoz Discuss this article
- Picture 1 of 2
Canadian-Iranian artist Nik Nejad is so passionate about the way in which his art is received that he decided to go past local galleries to organise his first solo show himself. 'It takes a long time to get a solo exhibition,' he says. 'It's my debut, so I wanted it to be all on my own terms. I wanted to have a lot of control over the space and the way viewers experience it.' The 28-year-old artist had already been selling to private buyers for five years, but decided to take matters into his own hands and fund a space on his own.
That space is 8th Street Studio in Al Quoz, although viewers must be quick if they want to glimpse the large-scale works in 'Versions of Her' – the exhibition only runs from Tuesday December 18 to Sunday December 25. It features paintings as well as two video installations, which ask questions about the way beauty and femininity are perceived in modern society. 'It's more me asking questions about the topic, rather than making a grand statement,' says Nejad. 'It centres on how femininity has been perceived, the role that femininity and gender have played in society in the past, the role they play now and, more so, in the future.'
Nejad has been living in Dubai on and off for the past 15 years. He says he's long been fascinated by femininity, especially the ways in which ancient cultures revered their women much more than they do today. But he found he could never quite grasp what were, at that time, just abstract thoughts. It wasn't until he got his hands on a novel suggested by a friend that he was able to solidify his thoughts and the questions he wanted to ask about the subject. 'I was inspired by a book written by Philip Wylie, called The Disappearance. In the book, Wylie talks about how all the men in the world vanish one day, and what ensues from there. It's all about how gender roles are re-aligned without the other gender there.'
On one hand, his videos use fashion shows to explore the concept of hyper-femininity. 'I like to dissect and defragment an image of beauty, to find that defining point when something goes from being normal or ugly to being beautiful,' he says. However, on the other, his paintings use layering and prominent linear strokes to show the layers of a person and tackle issues of science. 'It comes down to the way I believe beauty is perceived. The human eye can only really focus on one very small point at a time. When you're seeing something, it's actually that point moving around rapidly. I use those lines in a way to guide and direct the eye and your mind. I believe that when your brain perceives something as beautiful, it's actually the journey the eye takes in an image.'
The Lowdown
Exhibition: 'Versions of Her' until December 25 at 8th Street Studio, Building 20, Al Quoz 1 (04 330 7878).
Artist: Nik Nejad.
Price of works: From Dhs12,000.

Jimm - Unregistered December 05, 2011 12:10 PM Yeah good work Mclaren, i expect you to be at the climate change conference in durban! Where im sure everyone will be happy to just ignore the tones of carbon fiber and other materials that are wasted in developing a formula one car! 1 agree 6 disagree
elijah December 05, 2011 12:15 PM I'd much prefer Mclaren to have a winning car like Red Bull than have this carbon neutral claim to fame. All talk of cardon neutrality gets on my tits. Reply Report abuse 15 agree 5 disagree

Can't please everyone - Unregistered December 05, 2011 12:53 PM Already such negativity in the few comments posted. Good on McLaren for actually making the effort to address climate change and reduce their carbon offset. No matter how small, every change counts. I congratulate them. 12 agree 9 disagree
Can't please everyone - Unregistered December 05, 2011 12:56 PM Peter- ALL Pirelli tyres used this season have been recycled, this includes the rubber deposited on the track (aka marbles)."Number of tyres recycled during 2011: All, i.e. 28,600 race tyres plus 6,000 test tyres"Source:www(dot)formula1(dot)com/news/features/2011/12/12863.html 10 agree 0 disagree
Caroline - Unregistered December 05, 2011 2:32 PM A few statistics:F1 (the Sport), has been carbon neutral since 1997.The average F1 team produces 13,250 tons of carbon a year.The average UK football team produces 32,500 tons a year.The carbon footprint of the 2010 World Cup was 2.8 million tonnes (metric), none of which was off-set.Tour de France support cars produce 1430 tons of carbon.Dakar Rally competitors produced 880 tones of co2, which equals 105 flights from Paris to New Zealand, but is less than the support vehicles for the Tour de France. 7 agree 1 disagree
Droog - Unregistered December 05, 2011 2:54 PM Al Gore's Carbon Footprint is 200 Lbs P.S.I.His private jet equals F1's total output. Stuff like this makes gives this crap credibility and only makes the Carbon Stocks in his portfolio rise. What a joke.It's CAR racing. What are they supposed to run on, rubber bands? 8 agree 2 disagree
sodesu December 05, 2011 7:19 PM Surprised that it's even possible but well done to McLaren, not really a fan of theirs but this definitely gives them some plus points... It may also turn out to be quite clever as many major companies have ambitious environmental polices these days, and McLaren will now be the obvious choice to work with for any such company.

I mean, Deadpool's popularity just SKYROCKETED after non-comic readers were exposed to him in X-Men Legends 2. But he seems to be a little overused now, but Squirrel Girl's popularity is only continuing to rise, and she fills the same kind of role "unbeatable solo hero who is also comical". Anyone think the focus may shift to her after a while instead of him for wacky Marvel hijinks?
Is she going to replace Deadpool?
Squirrel Girl doesn't need a team up, from what I've heard. I hear she beat up Thanos and Doctor Doom, and I saw her beat up Deadpool.
I dont see her replacing Deadpool, there are some very hard core fans that would not trade. Plus some people like to be sexist so that would probably contibute alot (no im not sexest but im just saying)
I don't know. But I like Deadpool better. Squirrel Girl is just the entity of WIS.
Squirrel Girl deserves to join X-Force, whereupon, in the first mission, she is impaled horribly and dies.
Who could challenge her? Who could she fight? Franklin Richards might, or The One Above All.
Well, now that she's got such close ties to the real Avengers, I see a bright future for her. She could very likely become a top Avenger, or at the very least, show them all up like how she whooped Wolverine after Wolverine whooped Iron Fist, lol.
i kinda hope so, then we could get the real Wade back instead of the joke he has become
Never, her popularity is nothing compared to Deadpool's. He's been in movies, video games, and even on TV, and she hasn't. She's known to comic book fans and that's the limit of her popularity.
Unfortunately it's just a Super Hero Super Squad game, which while I hate that series, I'm getting that single game just to have the first game Squirrel Girl has appeared in. I don't think it's quite mainstream enough to skyrocket her like XML2 did for deadpool, but it shoudl help, at any rate. Plus love that it's the version of her as drawn in the newest New Avengers comics.
@Degalon: Im takin it that Squirell Girl is your favorite hero???
I don't think so. I've actually seen quite a bit of malice for squirrel girl, and I don't recall deadpool getting very much at all in his time before people called him over-exposed.
No. Reason on the fact for how long she's been around, had the same amount of initial exposure as he did before blowing up huge, and she never garnered the
kind of attention he has since. She has about as much of a chance at becoming anything more than a memetic badass as Aunt May does.
Replacing...Deadpool...Squirrel Girl.
She isn't half of the personality,awesomeness and badass as Deadpool,she deserves being kicked of the New Avengers and then die the most painful way possible.
nope would never happen the game she is in is for children
Deadpool game is for a larger market , as soon as kids grow up a little the idea of liking Squirrel Girl would be long gone
and mainstream media isn't about to give someone named Squirrel Girl the exposure Deapool is getting
she might stay strong in small circles on the internet but not the media
she defeats people in weird ways and mostly not seen but talked about in the comics
Deadpool character has been in a couple of movies(mostly animated) a more likable character has his current videogame and possible own movie coming out
Maybe, I've pre ordered Marvel Lego game for my little sister, I am pretty sure a cute female hero who throws squirrels will be more popular then any other charecter, it's just a guess, but I imagine by this time next year she may well have a lego minifig on a key chain a Disney princess doll and a cartoon series on nickelodeon, it doesn't matter what we call cannon, Disney will want to appeal Marvel charecters to as large an audience as possible with as much merchandise as possible. Dead pool has his audience but it could never be as big as the girls aged 7-14 market lol... Best buy shares in stuffed squirrel toys ASAP ;)
