Hi: 8° Lo:3°
BIRMINGHAM Brummies captain Danny King has won the annual 'Rider of the Night' award for 2012 after a season of consistently high scoring home performances at Perry Barr.
King scooped the award, based on the most 'rider of the night' weekly nominations, ahead of team-mate Ben Barker following a season long tussle.
The award, sponsored by city jewellers GH Moore and Son, of the Jewellery Quarter, caps a memorable 2012 season for the 26-year-old.
The Huntington based speedster has blossomed into a fully fledged Elite League heat leader for the Brummies and he has continued to forge a successful Swedish career with his club Vastervik reaching their play-off competition.
After spells with various clubs, 2012 was also the year King laid foundations for his British future, after the Brummies splashed out nearly £20,000 to buy him from Ipswich Witches.
King was delighted to take the award, saying: "To win this award ahead of my team-mates is pretty amazing considering the great year we had, finishing third in the Elite League."
Brummies co-manager Phil Morris added: "Obviously there were many gold star home displays from all the team in such an outstandingly successful year for us, so I am sure Danny can feel very proud of this achievement."
Darren Moore, of sponsors GH Moore and Son, said: "It was a great pleasure to present Danny with the Birmingham speedway rider of the night award for the 2012 season. Danny has been a great asset to Birmingham with his consistent riding and as an inspirational captain. It was a close contest for the award but Danny was a popular winner."

text: I am new to the carrying crew and never thought about carrying an extra mag. I have seen some very good points on this matter from this thread. I am very curious as to where people put this extra mag on a daily basis. I know my XD 40 came with a mag holder that goes on the belt but i couldn't wear that on the warmer weather. DO you keep it in your pocket, in the car, have a special holster?

Rugbyball has reviewed 1 products.
Love these, Why did you discontinue them!?!
These are the best, They are a mix of the Specialist line with an outdoor sole and where very durable. I like the fact the vent holes are only on the side, so if you spill things and it hits the top of show it doesnt get in as easy.
I do NOT like the new line that replace these, the Yukon, with the leather upper and vent slits, the leather will be a stain magnet and offer less water repellent than these Crosstrail.
The crosstrials had over 82 reviews before I wrote mine and the average was 4 1/2 stars, that is more reviews and more stars than some of the specialist line shoes, which is where they started with.
Why would you kill off this line when it had such great reviews I dont get it.
I have gone through three pairs and now I have to wear my last pair till they wear through.
Crocs, PLEASE BRING BACK THIS LINE, IT IS YOUR BEST LINE!!!!
FYI, incase you can find sales of these in left over stores, they do run small, I am normally an M11 and had to get a size M12.

ABC News' Ariane de Vogue, Jason Ryan and Jake Tapper report:
The Obama administration filed court papers on Wednesday asking a federal judge to suspend an order he issued last week that blocked the use of federal funds for embryonic stem cell research.
"The court's order causes irrevocable harm to the millions of extremely sick or injured people who stand to benefit from continuing research," said Justice Department spokeswoman Tracy Schmaler.
On August 23rd, District Court Judge Royce Lamberth stunned the medical community when he issued a preliminary injunction against the funding, ruling it violated a 1996 law that forbids federal support for research that involves destruction or damage to a human embryo.
The administration today asked the Court to allow the funding to continue while the case is appealed "in order to avoid terminating research projects midstream, invalidating results in process and impeding or negating years of scientific progress toward finding new treatments for devastating illnesses such as diabetes, Parkinson's disease, and blindness, as well as crippling spinal cord injuries, through research involving human embryonic stem cells."
Since Judge Lamberth's ruling, the National Institutes of Health has suspended millions of dollars of pending research grants associated with embryonic stem cell research.
In a statement filed with the court, NIH director Dr. Francis Collins said, "NIH has directly invested over $546 million of taxpayers' money in human embryonic stem cell research since 2001. The anticipated financial loss to NIH and to the taxpaying public is enormous and would include the hundreds of millions already spent on interrupted projects and the administrative costs of shutting down and restarting the NIH regulatory regime."
The administration contends that no embryos are actually destroyed with federal funds and that the monies only pay for research conducted under strict ethical guidelines on derived stem cells.
"We've said from day one that embryonic stem cell research is a top priority for this administration, and we're going to do everything possible to prevent the potentially catastrophic consequences of this injunction," said White House spokesman Reid Cherlin.
Critics disagree with the distinction in how federal funds are used and oppose efforts by the administration to keep the injuction in place. "They crossed a line in science," says Dr. David Stevens, of the Christian Medical Association, which was an original plaintiff in the case.
The new guidelines were issued in 2009 after President Obama signed an executive order expanding the use of federal funds for embryonic stem cell research.
"Giving an inducement to scientists to destroy human beings is wrong," said Stevens. "You don't destroy one individual in pursuit of scientific knowledge."
Gregory Wasson, who is suffering from Parkinson's disease and serves as a patient advocate, told ABC News he fears the research will be tied up for months while the appeal process takes place. "Every moment counts at this point in my life, day by day my motor skills decrease. The funding for future research is essential."

(Updates with comment by spokeswoman in fourth paragraph.)
June 16 (Bloomberg) -- Casino Guichard-Perrachon SA raised its stake in Cia. Brasileira de Distribuicao Grupo Pao de Acucar to 37 percent, strengthening its position after the Brazilian retailer reportedly held talks with rival Carrefour SA.
Casino bought 8.6 million Pao de Acucar preferred shares, equivalent to a 3.3 percent stake, the Saint-Etienne, France- based grocer said today. The purchase doesn't change control of Grupo Pao de Acucar by the holding company through which Casino and the Diniz Group share command of the Brazilian retailer.
"This operation shows the group's continuing commitment towards GPA and its trust in its executive team," Casino said in a statement. "Casino thus reiterates its intent to strengthen GPA's long-term development as well as the group's positions in fast-growing markets."
Casino filed for international arbitration against the Diniz Group last month after discovering its partner held talks with Carrefour, two people familiar with the matter have said. The stake increase doesn't affect those proceedings, which will continue, a company spokeswoman said today.
Casino fell as much as 2.6 percent in Paris trading and was down 1.51 euros, or 2.2 percent, to 67.55 euros as of 9:25 a.m. Carrefour shares dropped as much as 3.2 percent.
Joint Control
Carrefour, the world's second-largest retailer, hired Lazard Ltd. to study a merger between its Brazilian unit and Pao de Acucar, Journal du Dimanche reported in May, without saying where it got the information. The Diniz family could take a stake in the French retailer as part of the operation, the newspaper said at the time.
Casino, which owned 33.7 percent of Pao de Acucar before the increase, has had joint control of the grocer with the Diniz Group since July 2005. From 2012, Casino will have the right to appoint the chairman of Wilkes, the holding company for Pao de Acucar, and gain control of the retailer.
Casino, which gets a quarter of its sales from Latin America, intends to exercise the option to gain control of Pao de Acucar, a person familiar with the situation has said.
The Diniz Group agreed in 2005 not to sell its shares in Wilkes until 2014. All major management decisions must be unanimously agreed to and Casino and Diniz have the right of first refusal should the other wish to sell their shares after the lockup period, according to the pact.

Experts agree that culturally competent preventive education can play a key role in reducing CVD disparities in minority communities. And who better to provide that education than nurses?
Not so long ago, topics like minority health disparities and serving the needs of diverse patient populations were rarely taught in nursing classrooms. Today, a growing number of nursing schools are not only incorporating minority health into their curricula, they're building whole degree programs around it.

By Yohai Einav, VeriSign Senior Fraud Analyst
What happened to good ol' fraud?
There's a new trend in online fraud today - it is getting more brutal.
A few years ago, when a fraudster wanted to get your online banking credentials, he would send you a phishing email, asking you kindly to send him your bank's login and password; today, he would simply infect your PC with malware, then take your details by force.
Fraudsters not believing in the goodness of mankind and taking things by force?! Yes - we live in crazy times.
The brutal trend doesn't end with phishing. The same evolution happens today in the online brokerage world with the "Pump and Dump" scam.
Pump and Dump 1.0
The classic Pump and Dump scam is one of the oldest tricks in the book. Its guiding principle is simple: if you can buy a worthless stock for a very low price (typically micro-cap companies), then sell it quickly for a much higher price, you can become rich (you probably haven't heard this principle before).
So, how do you turn something worthless into something valuable in a short period of time?
The answer, until recently, was - "persuade enough dupes to buy the stock, and make the market price to go up". How do you persuade enough people? Well, 200 years ago (when the Internet was still a secret known to few) you would spread false rumors about "a swell stock" in tea parties, or in a horse cart on the way to work. Today you would simply send a professional-looking spam email to millions, giving an expert recommendation on the stock.
Pump and Dump 2.0
But that classic, mainstream scam has changed. The "Brutal Pump and Dump" of the day is not about persuading people; it is about taking command over their trading accounts.
How does a brutal Pump and Dump work?
First, the fraudster buys shares of a penny stock through his personal account. At this point the share price is very low. The fraudster then logs into multiple compromised trading accounts in one or more brokerage firms. Once there, he liquidates the stock portfolio in these accounts and uses the free money to purchase shares of "his" penny stock. The rest of the process is quite obvious: the share price of the penny stock goes up (usually by 10's or 100's of percent), and it's time for the fraudster to capitalize on his investment.
Return on investment of 100%-200% for one hour of work? Not a bad deal.
One person's gain
We all know the old saying - "one person's gain is another person's loss"; but what can we do when it's "many persons' loss to one person's gain"? Can we stop this loss from happening? Is there a magical defense against these dark arts?
Well, defense exists, although it is not fully magical. It mainly consists of special rules, configurations, comparators and behavioral engines. And it can block most of the brutal Pump and Dump.

Blue Cedar Homes (BCH) have submitted a planning application to the Vale of White Horse to build 18 homes on the land at Penstones Farm, just off Horsecroft.
The proposed housing consists of 8 retirement cottages, 7 affordable dwellings (3 x 2 bed, 3 x 3 bed, 1 x 4 bed) and 3 open market (3 x 4 bed).
At a planning meeting on Thursday 29th May, councillors voted to refuse planning permission.
Read the application Discuss on the Stanford Chat forum
The draft Local Plan for 2031 issued by Vale of White Horse District Council proposes up to 290 new houses in a new development west of Stanford.

Stanford in the Vale is a large village with approximately 2000 residents situated in south west Oxfordshire. It lies on the A417, four miles from Faringdon and six from Wantage (see map). It is a thriving modern community with many active clubs and societies, two churches, two public houses, shops and numerous businesses.
Stanford in the Vale is thought to be named after a stone ford in the area. It may have been a crossing of the River Ock, some say where the bridge now spans the river before Stanford Mill, however others speculate it was actually a crossing of Frogmore Brook.

It's probably your configuration which is not correct. When that happens, xmonad reverts to the default config.
Note that most configs on the xmonad web site are for older versions of the WM. Since it's haskell based, and the config file is really a source file written in haskell, it's very likely that an older config will not compile against a newer version of xmonad sources.
You most likely need to redo your config, modify it to work with your xmonad version.
EDIT: I suggest you to subscribe and ask on the xmonad mailing lists, since xmonad is nothing near a mainstream WM, and very few persons will be able to help around here, I guess. I use it since some months and I am very pleased with it, but I now very little about haskell and the help I can give you is limited by my short experience.

Mystery Mayhem does a fine job of capturing the feeling and atmosphere of the beloved TV series, but the overly simplistic gameplay is where the game falls short.
Parents whose kids have Scooby-Doo hot on the brain from the movie can safely rent this one, or not, without worry of missing much.
A mixture of tedious adventuring and boredom inducing play mechanics.
Scooby-Doo: Mystery Mayhem just isnt much fun. Blame it on its repetitive nature, the bad level design, the lame gameplay mechanics, the poor controls, or the collection mentality that composes a large part of the game blame it on something because theres no denying that Scooby-Doo: Mystery Mayhem is a huge bore-fest.
During my playtime, my emotions always registered somewhere between mildly annoyed and just plain bored. [May 2004, p.94]
Fans of the cartoons will be happy to know that the game contains everything from the originals, including voices and bad jokes.
Although nothing special or notable for original ideas, this is how a licensed game should be done. If youre a fan, God-forbid, you might just like it. Kudos to Artificial Mind & Motion.
Behind all the gloss and polish lurks the shadow of a game that shows little novelty in today's already swamped third person action adventure market.
One of the greater traits of this game is the sound which replicates perfectly the wacky over the top 70s effects.
Mystery Mayhem is filled with such touches that you can't help but smile at, at least for a little while until you realise that behind the pretty visuals, charming animation and spot-on spot effects lies something too innocent and simplistic to be of interest to anyone other than the very young or woefully misguided.
An excellent game for little kids but wont provide much excitement for others. The gameplay is very simplified, and the action gets repetitive quickly.
Even the youth market, at which it's aimed, should be able to clear enough of it to sate their Scooby urges in an overnight period, leaving parental wallets free for better gaming purchases.
This is definitely a game for hard-core Scooby fans. Or children under the age of ten. Or children under the age of ten with a short attention span. Or, ideally, all of the above.
The videogame resembles the cartoon so well that I instinctively reach for the remote to change the channel. Hey, look, there's a great show on the making of mop handles.
A fun, well-executed game for kids and fans of the series. I just won't blow anyone away. [June 2004, p.88]
Mystery Mayhem offers ex-stoners and kids of all ages a multi-episode mystery for the ages by pretty much reinventing the old Genesis "Ghosbusters" in 3D, only with all the extra refinements 3D affords. [Mar 2004, p.59]
But unless your mommy tucks you into your Scooby-Doo bed sheets at night, you probably wont be entirely satisfied.

Architect Gio Ponti founded FontanaArte in 1932 as an artistic division of the Luigi Fontana Company. Historically, the company has been a leader in advanced glass manufacturing and design. The company's works were first distinguished by its realization of artistic stained-glass windows, many of which are today still functional elements and ornamental features of churches and cathedrals, among them the Duomo of Milan and the Cathedral of Brasilia. By using glass, Ponti realized what an enormous potential this material could offer in the in the making of furnishing complements for interiors, and he started to design and produce furniture, lamps and objects with glass as the main distinguishing feature. Soon a new collection was ready to be marketed, and his new design concept was being used as a complement to the interior decoration of many houses that he personally designed. Over the years, FontanaArte has had many contributors to its designs, including Pietro Chiesa, Gae Aulenti, Pierluigi Cerri, Piero Castiglioni, Vico Magistretti, Vittorio Gregotti, Ettore Sottsass, Umberto Riva, Alvaro Siza and Renzo Piano.

External HDD showing in Windows, but not in BIOS

Posted July 2, 2013 at 1:03PM
So im trying to restore from an External HDD however it is not showing up as on option in the BIOS, or on the recovery disk software to reboot from.
The drive works fine, if i boot up windows I can take things off it and put things on etc, shows in device manager and disk management fine too. I have tried changing USB port to see if that was the issue, so far no change
Any ideas how to get this to appear in the BIOS? Cheers

Posted July 2, 2013 at 2:03PM
It won't show in BIOS as its not part of the machine and needs driver to run it in windows.
or on the recovery disk software to reboot from.
What recover program are you using? you may need to make a rescue disk with the recovery program while the USB external drive is plugged in.

Thanks for the reply, I am using EaseUS Todo. I made a recovery USB to boot from which works fine, however once it boots the software I can then only see the internal HDD and not the external one. Il try making this again with the ext HDD in another port and see if that affects it.

Thanks for the reply, yes. This only leads to browsing the C drive, the external HDD does not show up. I think it is a driver issue but im not sure of a way around this.

I found this: backupreview.com/easeus-todo-backup-free
"During my first review, EaseUS Todo Backup couldn't locate my USB hard drive during recovery. I found out this was because the bootable DVD didn't have the correct USB driver for my hardware. After contacting EaseUS they said the only solution would be to upgrade to Todo Backup Home edition, which supports creating a Win PE bootable disk and might have the correct drivers."

We all probably have at least one cherished Teddy Bear or stuffed animal in our past, and photographer Mark Nixon shows us what happens to them after their owners grow up and leave them behind in his series of photos and stories, MuchLoved.
Mottled, stitched and full of holes, these bears have clearly all been used and loved, sometimes to the point where they're nothing more than loose bundles of thread. What's interesting about the photos is how easy it is for something adorable to appear frightening or sad.
Each photograph is accompanied by a story. Some are simple tales of a bear being loved by a child, while others are practically epics, including some that have literally traveled around the world.
It's an ongoing series, and Nixon is welcoming submissions from his audience.

My kids have been to both, but they prefer Typhoon Lagoon (I've only been to TL -- kids have gone with dad or with school groups). They say that the extras -- including the swim with the sharks and the slides-- are better at TL.

water parks
Blizzard beach theming is nicer, most of the "good" slides are on top of one huge mountain, and you either have to hike up it every time you want to slide, or ride the ski lift which usually has ridiculously long lines! The wave pool there is more bobbing, and most of the time in it is spent trying to secure a inner tube! The family boat slide at BB is much longer though!
It also seems more crowded too.. I personally like Typhoon Lagoon because of HUGE wave pool with the surf size waves (lots of warnings that you need to be a good swimmer the deeper you go) and the reef tank which is a good experience if you've never been snorkeling.. Also, Crush n Gusher is a slide that is different because it's a water coaster! For some reason I have always found good lounge chair locations ! The lazy rivers at both are great!

All three of mine prefer Typhoon Lagoon. When I asked why, two of them said the that most all of the park appeals to everyone since it doesn't have the "extreme" slides that BB has. My middle child, and animal lover, just looked at me. When I asked what, she said, "Three words mom, SWIM WITH SHARKS!" I had forgotten that was her favorite thing.

I've been to TL 3 times and like the slides at BB better, except for the water coaster at TL. If BB had a water coaster, I never go back to TL, althought it is beautiful the slides at TL are not great and I hate the up and down stairways they have, its such a waste of energy. BB has alot of unique slides and I love the chair lift. Get there early and the line isn't that bad.

My family loves Typhoon Lagoon. It has Crush N Gusher the water coaster. It has a Shark reef/tank where you can swim with baby sharks (in the coldest water I have ever been in in my life) and it has a wave pool that generates 6 foot waves. It is super fun to get washed away by the big waves.

My nephews prefer TL. Mainly because of the wave pool, but also, there seem to be more rides that are cool, but not super extreme, and more slides we can do together. We are doing one water park in April, both asked for TL over BB.

We liked BB a lot better overall, but TL does have some unique stuff. The wave pool got old quick, and only my oldest daughter really liked shark reef. But, we all loved Crushin' Gusher. As with PP, if BB had a water coaster, we'd have little reason to go to TL.
If you care to read our experience from my trip report: Sunday 06/17/2012 TYPHOON LAGOON Slept in a little & hit the park around 9:15. Note: Signage for this park is not the best. Where Typhoon Lagoon is not mentioned, just follow Downtown Disney directions. First stop after the locker drop-off was shark reef. DD6 couldnt get along with the snorkel, so she & DW took off their masks & just floated. Cold water had me breathing rapidly, but I did okay. DD11 was a pro right from the start & loved it. Ultimately, shed do this attraction 4 more times throughout this day. Next up Crushin Gusher, the water coaster. Not much line, so we do all 3 flumes twice each. This ride a HUGE hit for the entire family. Next up wave pool & we promptly get pounded complete with scrapes & spilled blood (DD6 gets a bandaid & antiseptic from the first aid station, I pass). DD6 & DW decide to hang out in the very shallow end while DD11 & I attempt to body surf. I eventually swim ALL the way out to the rope & try it from there it actually works better (for me) at about 5 of depth than it does out by the rope. Waste deep proves to be the place to avoid as you get knocked around A LOT. Big waves seem cool, but the novelty wears off very fast. Paid close to $40 for a couple sandwiches & hot dogs, brought our own drinks. Food was good though. Off to Storm sliders. I found them okay, rest of the family really enjoys them. Family raft ride and the tube slides (forget what theyre called) are all boring as can be. Worse, the line for the raft ride was 40+ minutes. Worst ride of this type ever, a real snoozer. Did the 50 drop slide. Good drop, but as Id later find of all Disney drop slides, your back gets buffeted around a LOT, unlike similar slides at non-Disney waterparks. So, back to Crushin Gusher for several more rides before calling it a day. Side note: We noticed some Europeans & most South Americans like to get as close to naked as possible at the water parks. And it appears that womens bathing suits in Brazil only come in size 6 or smaller. So, in Brazil, if youre a petite gal, your suit may be risqué, but it will fit fine. If youre a normal sized woman (or larger), well, your bikini doesnt get more fabric, only more string LOL. Tuesday 06/19/2012 BLIZZARD BEACH after a late night the previous day, we slept in & hit the park just before 10:00. This is one of those kinds of generic waterparks that other than the theming has nothing unique. That said, ALL the rides are lots of fun. And overall we enjoyed BB more than TL. DD11 wanted to head straight to the Green Slope & Summit Plummet after getting a LARGE locker, so she & I took off while DD6 & DW splashed in the wave pool. Wait for Summit Plummet was ~15 minutes. Despite the 120 drop, you dont get the same sensation of height that similar rides have in other parks. Partly because the tower isnt very high off the peak, and also because of the tunnel. It also doesnt seem as steep of a drop either. Anyway, we both got pretty buffeted around again, as DD6 & I would later experience on Slushin Gusher, also on the Green Slope. No idea why these slides arent as smooth as those in other parks. Could be too much water. Still a couple pretty decent thrill rides though. Whole family then headed to the final Green Slope ride, Teamboat Springs, which we pretty much walked right on. This is a MUCH better family raft ride than the one at Typhoon Lagoon with a couple decent drops (but nothing too scary) and its a long ride to boot. We did this ride repeatedly, never waiting at all, although at one point the line suddenly backed WAY up. Turns out, the ride was down for some reason. Once it came back up, the line cleared right out again. On the back side of the Green Slope is the lone Red Slope ride, Runoff Rapids. The walk up the stairs to get on this ride is a killer. We had to laugh at the warning at the top about people with heart conditions. Trust me, if your heart isnt in good enough shape for this ride, it darn sure isnt in good enough shape for the stairs!! That said, the open slides for double tubes were great, and the enclosed slide for single tubes was even better. So, we burned lots of calories on this attraction hoofing it up those stairs. Never much of a line, either. On the purple slope is Downhill Double Dipper and 2 mat rides. As a bonus, there is a conveyor hauling tubes & mats to the top for you on these. DDD is a very fast, 6 second ride on a tube following a 30-40 minute wait. Worth the wait once a day, but wouldnt spend all day in that line to ride it a 2nd time. We all enjoyed the Toboggan ride (mat racers), but DW & I didnt care for the old-school mat slides that zigzagged down the hill. Kind of hard on our 40+ year old backs LOL. Really enjoyed this park, but there is a LOT of walking required with many rides spitting you out nowhere near the entrance to anything else, nor even the entrance to the ride you just finished. Friday 06/22/2012 Final day in The World BLIZZARD BEACH/TYPHOON LAGOON Slept in again & got to BB around 9:45. Rain would threaten pretty much all day, though we did get a handful of hot, sunny times. Grabbed a large locker & headed to Teamboat Springs. Road this several times over the course of the day and once again it shut down at some point. We overheard the workers explaining to each other that apparently it was not a malfunction, but an attempt to send a wheelchair bound guest on the ride that caused a major delay. DD6 & I did Slushin Gusher again, we played in the wave pool, lots of trips down Runoff Rapids, 1 Toboggan ride, and 1 round on Downhill Double Dippers (again with a long wait). We had chips & drinks, but no real meal here. Around 3:00, we planned 1 final ride on Teamboat Springs before leaving, but were driven off by nasty storm clouds. Back to the cabin for lunch & to wait out the storm. Having 1 WPFM visit left on our tickets, we arrived back at Typhoon Lagoon shortly before 6:00 p.m. in light rain. Both girls made one more trip through Shark Reef, and we did all 3 Storm Slider slides. The rest of the time was spent on Crushin Gusher. With the weather, the line was so light we werent required to even turn in our tubes. Instead, we just went on it continuously losing count of the # of rides we took. At 7:45, the storms were coming back around & announcements of the pending park closure were heard, so we called it a day.

I looove this BB cream! I took one lippie off, because the coverage is very sheer. Apart from that, this is am excellent primer. My skin can get extremely oily, and I applied this to my face without setting powder, and it stayed for hours..my face kept its fresh look and I looked very natural. Compared to the other BB creams I've tried, this is the best one. Oily skin gals, this is our holy grail.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Honestly, I was tempted to give this product just one lippie, but to be fair, it works okay. The main issue I had is the same as all my other cool/ivory- skinned companions-I turned orange. The fair and light versions both did this to me, makes me sad. This product is not pale girl-friendly.
That being said, I couldn't give it zero credit. It does even redness pretty good(that's where the too-orangey bisque color comes in). It also makes skin feel very nice and silky, leaving a semi-matte finish. This would be a nice product for warm and darker toned girls, I think. Although, I do think it is more of a tinted moisturizer than a BB cream, it's still worth trying.
More reviews by bacabacanomore
This is the first BB cream I have tried so, to compare it to any other BB cream I can't do. But, I can say that over all I love this product! I too put it on and saw that it was white at first and was almost disappointed. Once I started blending it in more the color started changing and matched my tone very well! Like I saw a few other people mention, I was a little worried it was on the orange side as well. Once I was finished applying it to my whole face I no longer saw it as too orange. My understanding is that this is supposed to be a primer so it does feel a little chalky once it dried and set. Once I applied my blush and an all over face powder I was pleased with the look and feel. I'm really happy with my first BB cream experience and glad I chose this one to try first.
I have an extremely hard skin type to match because I am so fair, and I also have combination skin so I have been trying to ease up on the foundation and go for something a little lighter. I could not be more pleased with this product! I have tried products in the past that are intended to adjust to your skin tone but they just made me look orange, this didn't at all! It gave my skin a really flawless look, hid my pores well, and it was so lightweight it felt amazing! I only wish it came in a bigger tube!
Price: $7.99 at Target
Amount: 1 fluid ounce
Shade: Light (I'm NC 25-30 depending on season)
Overall, nice face product that doesn't break me out. It is VERY sheer. I use it like a tinted moisturizer/primer and use my Make Up For Ever Pro Finish face powder all over it. Then I have a natural, non-oily, no fuss makeup look that lasts all day. It makes my makeup routine only about 5-10 minutes in the morning as opposed to full face makeup. Nice for the price and I would repurchase.
More reviews by lipsofanangel56
First things first, I hate how this is so runny that it just oozes out of the top! I literally store it upside down so that when I use it the product doesn't come running out all over as soon as I take the cap off. And that's another thing! The product gets all over the inside of the cap, and that's another reason why I store the BB cream upside down. Now, I've never tried any of the Asian BB creams, but I'm pretty sure their skincare benefits are greater than L'Oreal has. I love this as a tinted moisturizer, but I don't believe any of it's claims to improve the quality of your skin. I also love how the little beads that eventually turn into the pigment sort of massages the skin. Some people may be averse to trying this product just because of that odd texture, but I actually enjoy it. Even though the shade range is very limited, I was able to find a great shade match (medium). Sadly, this does tend to have a grayish look to it, but that goes away if you powder it; the gray tint also fades within the first hour of wear so that's good. This BB cream goes on pretty matte, but then sets to a ncie satin throughout the day. With this product, my skin tends to get a little oily after 4-5 hours of wear which isn't too bad. Given, I don't have oily skin, I have combination skin; it only gets mildly oily and then stays very dry others. This product does not extenuate dry patches, though I do like to use the DHC velvet skin beforehand only over those dry patches to keep the product going on smoothly. Overall, I really love how easy this product is to use and has suprisingly good coverage for a BB cream. :)
This product is very moisturizing and gives you an excellent finish, but it turns orange. If you're very fair this just won't work for you. It's disappointing because it feels great and looks great up until the color goes off.
I've found that I could wear it if I applied bronzer on my neck and chest, but who wants to go through all that trouble every day?
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I was surprised when I put this on my face and it was white. I thought "geez what have I gone and bought here?" But I went ahead and used it like a regular light foundation and I just love the results. I am 58 with a normal amount of wrinkles for my age but skin is in good shape. Regular foundation seems to settle into the creases and accentuates my wrinkles but this cream seems to diffuse the light and brightens my complexion. I did not find it at all greasy, in fact it looked great after 7-8 hours of wear. I purchased this thinking it was something with more color to it but I love the medium and I will continue to purchase it. If you want a lot of coverage this is not for you but if you want to have your skin just look really nice and even in tone you will love this BB cream.
5 out of 5 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I purchased this in Fair and it turned orange almost immediately. The orange mellowed out after about twenty minutes, but it was still too dark for my NW15 complexion.
I just put this on my face because it came as a product sample, and after living with it awhile and reviewing the comments here, I have a theory: this stuff is just self-tanning cream with a lotion mixed in. Why else would it 1) be so greasy, 2) turn orange, 3) smell the way it does, and 4) feel so yucky on the skin? No thanks; going to wash it off now. What a sham/shame.

ICAO projects accelerating airfreight growth
World scheduled airfreight traffic, measured in freight tonne kilometers, is expected to grow by 3.7 percent in 2014, according to the International Civil Aviation Organization.
Airfreight traffic grew by 0.4 percent in 2013, and is expected to increase by 4.2 percent in 2015 and 4.4 percent in 2016.
World trade in real terms, measured by exports and imports volumes, will grow by 4.2 percent in 2014, up from the 2.2 percent in 2013, according to IHS Global Insight, a financial analysis company.
The Middle East is expected to remain the fastest growing region in 2014, with an estimated growth rate of 12.1 percent. Growing world trade activities and the strong performance of Middle East carriers in international markets should provide a solid base for the region's freight traffic growth, ICAO says.
Europe is expected to grow by 2.7 percent in 2014, supported by economic recovery and improvement in trade of the region.
A growth trend in trade volumes of Africa should also continue, with the region's airfreight traffic estimated to grow by 3.1 percent this year. The Asia-Pacific region, which accounted for almost 40 percent of world freight traffic in 2013, is expected to grow by 3 percent in 2014. With the improvement of the European and U.S. economies, rising demand for Asia-Pacific manufactured goods should support export volume increases and airfreight growth.
Latin America and Caribbean air cargo traffic should continue growing at a rate of 3 percent in 2014. Freight traffic in North America is expected to grow by 1.4 percent in 2014.
Expectations of annual world trade growth rates of 5.3 and 5.1 percent over 2015 and 2016 should support world airfreight traffic growth rates of 4.2 and 4.4 percent, respectively.

My God......
When the heck does he play shirtless like that ?
I'd phone in sick for *that* afternoon....
("Sorry Boss, can't come in today.....Still queer...")
the boy knows what hes got...and he knows what it does to boys and girls,
thats why he always "practices" shirtless.
go to any tournament and peruse the practices courts and you'll find andy slamming balls with no shirt on...every single time.with a huge crowd of boys and girls surrounding that one court, ive seen it in person and he's so sweet afterwards taking sweaty shirtless pix with the boys who love him, and the girls too.
very sexy
as usual andy drawing attention....to himself
kinda funny link i couldnt upload it here (too big) so check it out, on the right hand side click the "hot shot - andy roddick clip"
Wow, that last image, moving image, reminds me of every time I went to the local pool when I was younger. Everytime a guy got out of the water he had to pull his swim trunks away from his stuff. I was always so fascinated by that, but watching Roddick do it is even 10 times hotter, cause it is not water, but sweat that is making his shorts cling. Yum.
They look like they're about to make out....
Dawn, I'm jealous!
more andy....
the last one is actual male physical PERFECTION, so cute.
hot practice pix....
good luck in D.C andy!!!

Thanks for all these great pics.
hey, if you didnt know i have another ANDY thread you should check out...

Perfect ass? George W. Bush!
while thats true,
i think you missed the whole point of this thread....its a different "ass"
(a better kind, ANDYASS )
just because his nipples and "sex" muscles are SOOOOOO nice.
can't hate on those lips either

thank for pics
nice guys
I think ....the boy is little and had a hard on all the time thats what's sticking out.
I find Rafael Nadal's ass is much more hot, although he isn't much of a a looker
nadal does have a nice ass, great body and beautiful arms- okay face
andy- however is the total package, great legs...i love his face cute\exotic...and an ass that wont quit.
So who thinks Andy's dick is cut, and who thinks uncut?
I'm not sure, But I think his size is average.
well he was born in Nebraska, USA in 1983...
that leads me to believe CUT -unfortunately .....but what do i know?
but looking at some of these pics and some in my personal collection, i think I'm right.
seems that andy enjoy's some very gay positions....plus when he gets on his back.... those legs just fly up.
Recently Andy has been playing cinninatti, i love wen he wears all white cuz its easier to see bulges but lately he has been wearing black spandax instead of underwear. It sucks cuz his bulge doesnt show big but he grabs himself so much.
Great ass......great looks, he even has nice lookin feet. I saw them on one of the sports shows.
We need a new smiley showing the head licking feet!

Andy is cuming to Nu Yawk soon
Wonder if he'll show up at any local gay bars

GREAT pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanxssssss!!!
Today's (Friday's) Times Sports Section and a small, blurry pic of Andy's topless practice sessions for the Open.
Glad you could get larger, much better defined pix, Elle.
I think I'm becoming obsessed with Andy's navel. Nothing heavy duty, yet. A few more topless practice sessions, though, and I may go over the edge.
NY has a new gay sports bar, with wide screen TVs showing current sporting events for macho gay dudes to watch while drinking brewskies with their bros. I'll have to check next week's schedule to see if they are hosting US Open watching parties. (With prizes for the best all lacoste outfits?)

Cement steps wind their way through a multi-tiered garden filled with topiary trees, ornamental grasses, shrubs, and flowering plants.
A wall of garden pockets creates both privacy and beauty in this outdoor dining area. No outdoor room is complete without a bit of lush landscaping, but designer Jamie Durie took it to the next level when he incorporated a vertical garden full of edible plants onto the sides of this dining pergola. The homeowners wanted an urban garden where they could eat what they grow, along with a sustainable design with a contemporary edge. This outdoor dining area is the perfect space for entertaining guests, but still incorporates the productivity the homeowners desire. Plus, the vertical garden creates a wall of privacy that makes the dining experience even more intimate and secluded from the rest of the yard. A vertical garden also makes outdoor dining more interactive, too — if your food needs a bit more flavor, just pick off a few leaves from one of the many garden offerings.

River rocks pave the way for this running stream. Thick foliage and beautiful flowering plants surround the stream, creating an enchanting outdoor retreat.
Beets are loved by many gardeners for their sweet and earthy flavor. They are a cool-weather crop that is easy to grow from seed.
To harvest, pull the beets up by hand or dig with a pitchfork. If eating the beets in the next few days, leave the greens attached.
Beet seeds are actually tiny fruits that contain a cluster of several small seeds, so they always send up more than one seedling. One way to thin is to use a pair of scissors to cut the seedlings off at their base.
Beets have long roots that reach deep into the soil, so prepare the bed well.
Carefully placed rippling gravel and various "islands" represented by stone give the impression of water, creating a peaceful spot for mediation in this black and white zen garden.

"I've made a couple of modifications to "veganize" this recipe, turned out great! Substituted Avocado for the cheese and olive oil as a healthier alternative to the Canola. Also added a tiny splash of balsamic! Heaven! (another little tip, we grilled the veggies including the corn, adds great flavour!)"

I'm either a total optimist or a glutton for punishment. I recently explained the benefits of "tax havens" for the unfriendly readers of the New York Times.
Now I'm defending a different form of tax competition for CNN, another news outlet that leans left. In this case, the topic is whether states can reach beyond their borders for tax revenue.
Here's some of what I wrote about the so-called Marketplace Fairness Act that was just approved by the Senate and presumably will soon be considered by the House. I start by explaining that the powers of governments should be constrained by borders.
Let's assume you live in Utah, Hawaii or South Carolina, and you go to Nevada for a vacation. While in Las Vegas, you spend some money in the casinos. Gambling is illegal in the state where you live, so should the cops in your home state be able to track your activities and arrest you for what happened in Nevada? The answer, needless to say, is no. Or at least it should be no. Common sense tells us that state laws should only apply to things that happen inside a state's borders. But this sensible principle is being tossed out the window by the U.S. Senate, which has approved a proposal that would give states the ability to impose their taxes on out-of-state sellers.
I also explain that this issue isn't about whether the Internet should be taxed. Indeed, as a fan of the flat tax, I don't want special favors or special penalties in the tax code. Internet profits and Internet sales should face the same (ideally low) taxes as all other sectors of the economy.
Instead, the fight is really about whether a state government has the right to force out-of-state merchants to act as deputy tax collectors. If you believe that borders should limit the power of governments, the answer is no.
But that rubs politicians the wrong way.

I've been adopted! Whoo-hoo!!
Kiss me please. I'm Mistletoe.
How can you resist my big, brown eyes, soft and plush rex fur and droopy little mouth and chin?! I'm just such an endearing, older man. Since I arrived at the shelter as a stray, no one is really sure how old I am , but we are all guessing about 5-6 years old. I don't know how to count, so I can't really tell you either.
Anyway, I am looking for my forever home. I will soon be neutered and at the same time they will remove some small lumps on my belly. A little "nip and tuck." That's the only reason I am currently listed as special needs.
I'm very charming and a casual, easy -going guy. If you are looking for a man of experience, that's me!
