This is hands down the best mascara I have used. Brush is great and my lashes do not have clumps and it is really lengthening- I have been through lots of mascaras and I really like this - had a smaller size I ordered from PTR website- you can build this and it's just great natural looking and lasts all day. - lifts, separates and no clumps ever.
This mascara gives my lashes a pretty natural full look. I like that I can apply 2 coats for added volume and my lashes don't clump at all! I am in love! I bought this at the Beauty Brands Lash Bash and personally I would have never bought it any other time since it is pretty expensive. The packaging is pretty good, the black outside with silver writing makes it look very chic and when you screw the mascara wand back in, it shuts very well. I love it when my mascaras don't open easily so then if I travel with them I don't have to worry about them accidentally opening as much.
The look I get from it is similar to my Cover Girl Lash Blast Length but I feel that this PTR mascara gives my lashes a bit more lift and lengthens better than the Cover Girl one. I especially like the brush for this mascara. It is very slim and the bristles get a bit shorter at the end of the brush making it easy to get to those pesky little lashes. It says that this is water resistant but I have no problem with it not coming off when I remove it at the end of the day.
If you are on a budget I suggest waiting till the Beauty Brands event, I think the mascaras are priced at $11 or $12 so it is a good chance to try it if you like. I will be picking up another one at the event when it comes back around!
I love this mascara. I buy it at the Beauty Brands lash bash event every year. My lashes clump easily. This mascara does not make my lashes clump and one coat does the job!
A friend of mine works at Kit Cosmetics and gave me this mascara as a sample. I like this mascara but I haven't bought myself to purchase it because it's quite pricey for what it's worth (35AUD I think?). Doesn't clump and extends my lashes, but doesn't make them nice and full. I do however love how it is free of nasties such as parabens, sulfates etc. For this reason I would purchase and recommend.

This is my new HG mascara! I can't believe how beautifully long and separated my lashes look with this mascara. No clumping, No flaking, No smearing...just beautiful long lashes.
It is more expensive than a drugstore mascara but it has No Parabens, No Sulfates, No Synthetic Fragrances, No Synthetic Dyes, No Petrochemicals, No Phthalates, No GMOs, and No Triclosan...That makes it well worth the price for me.

decent mascara? yes. To die for? No. depends on your expectations.. it didn't clump and separated my lashes nicely, I'll give it that. But as for adding volume and length...eh...not so much. its got its benefits i suppose but definitely not enough for the price you pay
This is the best mascara I have ever ever used. The look is natural and the lashes are soft and separated.....trust me...the best.
I had such high hopes for this product, based on other reviews, but unfortunately it's not my HG mascara, not even close. The formula is okay but the brush is not. It's so large, hard and bulky that it left more product on my lower eyelid skin than on the lashes themselves.
I have tried all kinds of mascara from Lancome to Dior to benifits they're real, to urban decay to smashbox to estee lauder to bobbie brown to chanel to mac to make up forever to guerlain to drug store mascara's this mascara seperates and lenghtens and does add volume and it don't clump or make your lashes stick together also it don't smudge or cake like all above that I had mentioned. but it does get goopy after couple of uses have to clean the wand alot or stick a drop of visine in it to bring it back to life
More reviews by SorceressOfTheDark
Packaging quality is pretty much the same as other mascaras, until you open the case and see the wand. It's a plastic wand that you use to fill your lashes. It's hard. Yes, hard-bristled. It's difficult to angle to put the mascara on your lashes with such a brittle piece of plastic. I was surprised when I saw and felt this contraption. After putting on my usual few coats and allowing them to dry, I went about my way. I was unpleasantly surprised soon after when I checked in my mirror and saw the little pieces of mascara under my eyes that had fallen off my lashes. I don't glop mascara on unevenly, I'm quite careful in application, but that didn't seem to matter. That meant out with the q-tips to do a quick clean-up of my under-eye area before I went out and I then needed to carry some more q-tips with me for the rest of the evening. This happened every time I wore this mascara. Not re-purchasing.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - The California Supreme Court has ruled against a Southern California woman who challenged a traffic ticket based on red-light camera photos and video.
In a unanimous ruling on Thursday, the court said the red-light camera evidence against Carmen Goldsmith was adequately authenticated and there was no need to adopt stricter evidence rules for red-light camera violations.
Goldsmith was accused of running a red light in Inglewood in 2009 and fined $436. A police officer testified at her court hearing.
Goldsmith's lawyer had called for testimony from the camera's manufacturer. But the Supreme Court said the officer's testimony was sufficient.
John Jackman, a lawyer for Goldsmith, told the San Francisco Chronicle he was disappointed by the ruling but happy the court had set some ground rules for red light cameras.

"I cannot recommend Keith and KSC Crystals highly enough! He goes to great lengths to source the very best quality crystals which he sells at the very best prices. He is knowledgeable and enthusiastic and he has an obvious love of the mineral kingdom - this is seen in every aspect of the service which he provides. Even though I live on the East Coast of the UK and work in Nottingham (which means lots of travel), I still order from Keith in Manchester because of his passion, the quality of his crystals and the level of service that he provides. You can rely on him to choose crystals for you, so there is no need to visit him if travel is a problem. (even though there is a crystal shop in my town, I still choose to shop at KSC Crystals) Also, not everything that he has in stock is on the website yet, so you can always call him if you are looking for something in particular. What more can I say? If you love crystals, you will love KSC Crystals.

This is a stone to help lift depression and combat "low days", helping to bring contentment and a sparkle back to daily life. Ruby is also beneficial to the being who has lost the sparkle in the eye, this may be from depression, but also from other debilitating illnesses such as Dementia and Alzheimer's. Also where just the process of growing older is hard to accept and cope with.
"To raise a true smile, is to bring true sparkle.. To bring true sparkle is to bring back Life"
Ruby resonates nicely with the heart chakra, helping to revitalise in order to bring it back to it's most vibrant state, which in turn start's to awaken the Zest within. Also, this is a stone that can really help stimulate the Kundalini into awakening and raising.
A very zesty stone which may be a little unruly, but never for the wrong reason's.

Szpiner declared a 'desertion' the fact that French former Prime minister Francois Fillon's campaign director, Eric Ciotti slammed the door from the UMP's appeal elections control board, after considering it illegitimate and biased. Party heavyweight Juppe, a former premier and foreign minister, will hold a mediation meeting later in the day with the right-winger, who was declared the winner of November 22 knife-edge vote to pick a party leader, Jean-Francois Cope, and his centrist rival Francois Fillon. The talks are to establish who actually won the leadership and whether mutual allegations of ballot rigging have any foundation.

IHT schools Stop & Shop company
To the Editor:
On behalf of the Island Housing Trust, I would like to offer the following recommendations to the Martha's Vineyard Commission members regarding Stop & Shop Supermarket Company's proposal in downtown Vineyard Haven.
As a neighbor, the Island Housing Trust has the following concerns. The Island Housing Trust owns the property directly abutting the proposed Stop & Shop development at 6 Water Street in Vineyard Haven. A conceptual plan has been developed by Island Housing Trust's architect James Weisman from Terrain Associates to create five rental apartments within one loft style building. The goal of the design is to complement the existing harbor district neighborhood and provide livable, energy-efficient, affordable in-town rental housing.
One of our stated design principles is to promote a more pedestrian and bicycle friendly oriented neighborhood. Our conceptual has our building set back 30 feet from the sidewalk to approximately where the existing resident building is located, in order to help delineate the property's public, semi-public, and private spaces. In an effort to maximize the building's south facing and solar aspect, our proposed building has been set back seven feet from the northern property line against Stop & Shop's proposed three story façade.
The Island Housing Trust desires to coordinate efforts with Stop & Shop to create an integrated walking path between Water Street and Cromwell Lane to allow greater pedestrian access within the downtown area. Finally, the Island Housing Trust would like Stop & Shop to ensure that any ventilation or exhaust from the enclosed parking area or supermarket be located far enough way from our 6 Water Street residential property to mitigate any noise, smell or other nuisances.
As a community development corporation and community land trust, the Island Housing Trust would like to also offer the following observations and recommendations. Large "anchor institutions" such as the Stop & Stop Supermarket Company wield considerable economic power in our community. From the food they purchase and sell to the people they employ, Stop & Shop's two supermarkets on Martha's Vineyard are responsible for millions of dollars coming into and leaving our local economy. Where and how Stop & Shop chooses to build will greatly affect the surrounding downtown area. The MVC and the town of Tisbury's thoughtful decision making regarding this real estate development can help leverage Stop & Shop's potential to benefit our community in a way that creates healthy places, stimulates economic growth, and supports the local housing needs. Clearly, Stop & Shop has the potential to bring crucial — and measurable — benefits to our community and local economy. Many supermarket chains and other community "anchor institutions" have recognized this potential and have become increasingly engaged with their communities. A few have gone so far as to adopt a mission that consciously seeks to apply their economic and institutional power to better the long-term welfare of local residents.
Building local wealth through developing and improving local business capacity is one way for "anchor institutions" to support their community. In practice this means local hiring, workforce development, local purchasing and economic inclusion strategies that work to increase economic opportunities for local residents and improve quality of life while also meeting its own service and purchasing needs. Working to increase the capacity of local nonprofits that support small businesses, such as the Martha's Vineyard Chamber of Commerce, is one way that Stop & Shop can foster the growth of local businesses. Supporting programs that maintain permanent affordable rental and ownership housing is another way that Stop & Shop can invest in workforce housing solutions. A meaningful investment by Stop & Shop in the Island Housing Trust's neighboring project at 6 Water Street would be a direct way of engaging in and addressing the community's significant need for affordable rental housing.
The Island Housing Trust believes that this type of community engagement will yield important benefits for both our community and "anchor institutions" on Martha's Vineyard, including the Stop & Shop Supermarket Company.
Thank you for this opportunity to provide these design and broader community development needs to your attention.
Philippe Jordi,
Executive Director
Island Housing Trust
Unreal. Another shakedown attempt by the affordable housing regime. IHT got the property for FREE because a Stop and Shop competitor, whose outrageous prices contribute to the affordability problem on the island, bought it for $700 K and gave it to them. Imagine blowing $700 K just to piss off your competitor! Even worse, imagine being given the property for free and asking your neighbor to contribute to it's renovation!
Bernier is a smart man. He obviously did not think he was "blowing" the money he spent, or he'd not have written that check. Since when is making suggestions and asking for dialog and communication a "shakedown"?
Of course Steve Bernier is a smart man, in the sense of cunning. His fantastic success and enormous wealth comes from hard work and a take-no-prisoners attitude when it comes to business. What he did was unequivocal. He made a stealth cash purchase and subsequent donation of a rundown building to a so-called, non-profit, with the sole intention of sabbotaging a competitor. To characterize it as anything else would take the Pinocchio tongue (and nose) of Jay Carney. If a corporation did such a thing, the outrage woud be deafening. It's time we had a choice. Are we not supposed to be "pro-choice?"
Of course you have a choice. Don't shop at Cronigs if you don't like it. Do you know how wealthy S&S owners are, compared to Bernier? The anger at the IHT, which provides affordable housing and cares about the community, is mind-boggling. If people really want to spend time venting their venomous words at those with money, S&S is right up there! But what a stupid thing to do. I'm wondering if you even read this letter. I really don't get the anger at IHT. Happy Thanksgiving, all. Gratitude for what you have is a good thing, especially if you can manage being grateful for more than one dinner time meal, one day a year.
Toma_toes you've got something in your rhetoric but you lost me.
You tell everyone that IHT is a worthwhile org and tell everyone to stop spewing hatred, tell us all to look past one meal and be grateful then swiftly turn and tell everyone to spend their venomous words at Stop and Shop.
How about think there's room for all without anger?
How about housing lives there side by side, no public funds used for either venture (as Stop and Shop isn't using public funds) and IHT go out and fundraise themselves? They "fundraised" when they were given the house next to Stop and Shop by Mr. Bernier. Why not sell the house/land and use those proceeds to fund future affordable housing developments? Why not use it as matching state or federal grants? Why not sell the property as a youth lot? To a private developed that would build a 40 B?
Is there no vision with IHT?
S & s is not using public funds, they are using public land. (Parking lot)
That's not accurate islander47. They don't appear to be using any public land even for their receivables.
Read this sentence again and tell me this isn't a thinly veiled shakedown.
A meaningful investment by Stop & Shop in the Island Housing Trust's neighboring project at 6 Water Street would be a direct way of engaging in and addressing the community's significant need for affordable rental housing.
What's a "meaningful investment" ? Should their " meaningful investment" be equal to Steve Bernier's "investment" ? His investment was meant to stifle job growth and thus exacerbate the affordable housing problem,
The donation most likely will be a tax write off.
Wow! A shady move to stop a competitor and then the beneficiary asks/extorts money to fund the project?! Does it ever end with these "nonprofits" who pay ridiculous salaries?!
You've got to be kidding me. I would love to see Stop and Shop right a nice NO THANK YOU letter to this amazingly uninformed and testicle rich organization. It took cojones but someone should finally take them off of this organization.
The only organization that is more deplorable is the dukes county housing authority. Hands out at every turn!
You seem to have completely misread the above letter.
Watch your language, "strikes again", whoever you are. Extortion is a criminal offense of obtaining money, property, or services from a person, entity, or institution, through coercion. You are making serious and totally unsubtantiated charges.
I thought it obvious the IHT is trying to coerce Ahold into paying to fix up the adjacent property by suggesting this be part of the market rebuild. A slimy technique.
A suggestion is one thing. Coercion is another. Coercion is the practice of persuading someone to do something by using force or threats. How do you see coercion here?
Because by all appearances the IHT is trying to use public pressure and that of the MVC to get Ahold to pay extra to get the approval to rebuild their own store. Coerce is a nice way to put it.
In your personal dictionary, maybe so.
Quoting one of your other comments, "You seem to have completely misread the above letter."
No, you're the only one to have misread. It is complete doublespeak. And your lost argument has run its course.
Wikipedia- The term extortion is often used euphemistically to refer to usury or to price-gouging, though neither is legally considered extortion. It is also often used loosely to refer to everyday situations where one person feels indebted against their will, to another, in order to receive an essential service or avoid legal consequences.
Ya sounds about right.
How about we the people, block the IHT's building plans. Or even better, take the adjoining property by eminent domain and sell it to Stop and Shop for the benefit of the community.
For the benefit of the community?
Don't you mean for the benefit of Koninklijk Ahold, N. V. , the Dutch Company that actually owns Stop & Shop?
Ahold has a long history, which in recent years has included kidnaping, murder (of one of its primary executives), plus troubles from extensive internal corruption. The last ten years look a little better, as the company tries to recover. Highly profitable store locations like Martha's Vineyard are part of that strategy.
I shop there. I wouldn't mind having a broader inventory to choose from. It benefits the community. It benefits my family, neighbors and I. S & S also employs a lot of islanders. The town can take it and do as they please with the land next door. Bernier's deed restriction doesn't bind the local municipality. I'd like to be able to shop for some exotic ingredients that they currently don't/can't stock without being held up by his other competitor in VH. Wouldn't it be nice to have more than a two-page sale brochure?
Where did you obtain information regarding this store's profitability. I'd be interested in seeing that information.
Read the linked article.
Then walk the aisles.
Look at the prices.
And then try the same thing
sometime when you're Away.-
T.H. you've been drinking to much of the conspiracy koolaid.
koolaid's nasty stuff. I won't drink it. You shouldn't either.
Items I've purchased at the Edgartown S&S are exactly the same at the S&S in West Caldwell, N.J. I always save my receipts and compare them.
They're also comparable to the prices charged by Publix (largest supermarket chain in Florida).
So is your point that we should all scrutinize the personal and criminal lives of board members and stock holders of corporations, and if we find something untoward, we then should boycott that corporation's enterprises?
Is this supposed to be funny?
Does the IHT plan include parking for the tenants and their guests? That seems like a terrible place for an apartment house. Way to much noise and traffic.
It would be much better for the community if Stop and Shop was able to utilize the space for their expansion.-
I believe only Stop & Shop is required to supply customer parking.
I keep reading about the Stop & Shop location being so bad, yet there are plans to put high density housing in place? Where will the residents park their cars? How will they deal with the noise? Would you want to have children living in that location?
That's a commercial, high-traffic district and really has no place being used for housing. They should sell the building to Stop & Shop and use the funds for a better residential location. -
Thank you IHT for all your great work and well thought out suggestions. Thumbs up for IHT, Philippe Jordi and all involved in affordable housing. Most people applaud your efforts as proven by the ongoing results.
We can easily measure the accomplishments of the IHT but to issue a document of this nature reveals a tone of rhetoric that is not geared to the benefit of the entire community. Your notion of what people applaud does not extend to self serving rhetoric of any member of that group. The people who intend to continually inject drama to bring this development to a litigation scenario only forward the notion of who is actually turning the screws on all Islanders each day.
My favorite line is they want to build a building to "complement the existing harbor district neighborhood".
Lol it is a dump so anything would be better than what there now. And stop and shop is trying to improve that. The apartments behind it are run down deplorable living conditions. So why isn't anybody talking about improving the existing buildings also.This is an agenda driven by the iht to stop or limit the stop and shop.
If it weren't for Stop and Shop the prices Steve Bernier charges would be even higher. He can get away with it because the wealthy summer residents don't look at prices. Very smart move to buy the rundown house next store at 6 Water Street to make it more difficult for Stop and Shop to expand. What a horrible location for anyone to have to live. Mr. Jordi pretends not to realize that.

States are increasingly adopting laws that ban the use of cell phones while behind the wheel, but a recent study suggests such bans may not be that effective at curtailing accidents.
The Highway Loss Data Institute (associated with the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety) studied crash data from California, New York, Connecticut, and Washington, states that all recently made the use of hand-held phones while driving illegal. While the bans should theoretically reduce the risk of distracted driving and reduce accidents, the numbers say other wise.
"We were looking for that, and we aren't seeing that pattern," Adrian Lund, president of the HLDS, told The New York Times. "We can't even see a blip in the data for crashes."
Prior studies suggested cell phone users were up to four times as likely to be involved in a crash. While some of those drivers may have put the phone at bay (the HLDS says these states saw a 76-percent drop in usage), there's a possibility that drivers may have found distraction elsewhere in the vehicle. Navigation systems, radios, MP3 players, cargo, and other passengers can all distract a driver from the road ahead. Another possibility? Drivers may simply be switching to hands-free phone use, which is suggested to be as distracting as using a hand-held cell phone.
Regardless, we'll stick to what our parents taught us: Keep our eyes on the road, and our hands on the wheel...

Merging state-of-the-art techniques with top-notch skincare products into comprehensive spa services, Aesthetic Plastic Surgery rejuvenates withered skin and enhances facial beauty. After entering the brightly lit office space, customers are greeted by a wonderfully furnished, sensually curved interior and friendly staff of medical aestheticians that offers complimentary advice on which treatments to seek and how to survive a zombie apocalypse. Marred mugs can benefit from a variety of facial therapies, such as dead-skin-slaying chemical peels ($90+), microdermabrasion ($125), and a deep-cleansing 75-minute European facial with pore refinement ($85).
At Total Skin Care, more than 50 years of combined physician experience oversees a bevy of beauty-buffing treatments. During the 30-minute photofacial treatment, an aesthetician zaps epidermal enemies with a noninvasive Harmony AFT laser. Gentle pulses of light penetrate subsurface skin layers, increasing collagen production and resistance to being beamed up by hostile aliens, while reducing unsightly blood vessels and diminishing uneven complexion, sunspots, and wrinkles. Designed to minimize discomfort and eliminate post-treatment downtime, IPL facials let customers quickly get back to the daily makeup use and balloon manipulation required for being the resident clown at the maternity ward.
Between 5 and 8 p.m. on every Wednesday and Friday, clients can show up at Wired Wellness Physicians for discounts on a variety of rejuvenation shots. Except these shots can make you feel as energetic as a toddler who just found last year's leftover Halloween candy at the back of the closet. That's because the happy hour shots ordered off Wired Wellness Physicians's shot bar menu are vitamin injections chockfull of ingredients that boost energy and metabolism.
The board certified in anti-aging medicine, naturopathic doctor and wellness expert at Wired Wellness Physicians also rejuvenate bodies with natural treatments, everything from hormone-replacement therapy to nutritional-deficiency therapy. They also use natural treatments when combating skin woes, such as microneedling to even out skin tone, sclerotherapy to fade spider veins, and platelet-rich plasma face-lifts to smooth fine lines.

The spa?s jet peel delivers oxygen and moisture to faces via a gentle stream of air and water, and the Purigenex treatment uses collagen to reverse the signs of sun damage and scars from battling Storm Troopers.
In Dr. Stanley Teplick's 30 years of experience, he's trained at the Mayo Clinic, served as a professor of ophthalmology, and performed 45,000 refractive surgeries. One such procedure was performed live on television, when KPTV Oregon anchor Shauna Parsons beamed her experience live into the Fox News studios. Parsons wasn?t the only high-profile patient to rely on Dr. Teplick's skills, which have also plucked spectacles off the famous faces of professional athletes, TV personalities, and Miss Oregon 2008. Whether glasses don't fit the wearers' lifestyles or patients are simply tired of harvesting contact lenses from their thorny vines, Dr. Teplick's surgeries provide solutions to a wide array of peeper problems. His practice also expands to care for the rest of the face by offering cosmetic injections and chemical peels.

The Hall Director (HD) is a full-time professional staff member who will live in the residence hall and provide leadership for student staff (Resident Advisors and Front Desk staff) and students. The Hall Director will advise student groups, co-direct living learning communities, encourage student safety and security, promote diversity and social justice and provide resources for conflict resolution.
The Community Advisor (CA) is a live-in student staff member committed to the safety and comfort of our residents and community. The CA is part of the Residence Hall building staff whose primary responsiblity is building a community, responding to critical incidents, and supporting residents in the hall.
The Resident Advisor (RA) position is essential to the success of the students in the residence hall. The staff in Housing and Residential Life will be committed to an educational approach in order to provide for the most meaningful experience for our residents. One of the key responsibilities of an RA is that of a multicultural community builder. The RA commits to getting to know each resident, both individually and collectively, by investing time and energy into activities and events that will help facilitate the development of positive and meaningful relationships.
DPS is getting connected with our community! The UM-Flint Department of Public Safety (DPS) has established a community-oriented policing service that we call Connection Officer Program (COP). COP uses a customer service focused approach to meeting the safety needs of the community we serve. Our goal is to be more accessible and approachable by members of our campus community, while providing efficient and effective services to the campus that we serve. Our community policing philosophy is at the foundation for all of our operational strategies. It emphasizes the establishment of police-community partnerships and a problem-solving approach that is responsive to the needs of our campus community. One of the major objectives of our COP efforts is to establish an active partnership between DPS and the various campus community groups that, while working together, can evaluate problems and design and help implement solutions that are community-based. This requires us to make a conscious effort to create a culture in which our community partners actively and willingly partnership with DPS. There is a DPS Connection Officer assigned to a number of the large formal groups on campus. From First Street Housing to Student Government, a Connection Officer is currently working to build long-lasting and effective relationships built on mutual respect and trust. In fact, we just opened a COP office at 1st Street Housing! The Connection Officer Program rests on the ideas of empowerment, creating a sense of joint responsibility and commitment to a safe campus. We recognize and acknowledge that this effort will require time, training and commitment from both our DPS personnel and our campus community.

Can Linux Pick Up Users Abandoning Win98?
Abandon Windows 98? Nope. (491 comments)
Most windows 98 users are not going to switch because of the announcement, most probably never even heard it.
For the most part, the people currently using windows 98 bought it preinstalled. Bought the applications they need, and are happy with that. Their next upgrade will occur when their current machine dies.
Several of my older friends will talk about upgrading to XP every once in a while, but never do, they do not want to buy an office suit, a card maker, genealogy programs etc all over again.
I have an Aunt, who is still happy using WFW 3.11, it runs her applications. The machine does all she needs.

There's been some chatter about how Conde Nast's tablet editions of its popular magazines, which have enjoyed a large increase in subscribers since the release of Apple's Newsstand feature.

Conde Nast Adds A Street Style Fashion Platform With Teen Vogue's Fashion Click
Sites like Fashism, Go Try It On and Weardrobe have shown that there is intrinsic value in the ability to share photos of what you are wearing and get feedback on your style.

Conde Nast's Teen Vogue property is launching its own user generated street… Read More

Ben Huh Asks: "I Can Haz Reddit?" (Offers To Buy It From Condé Nast)
It's no secret that social link sharing community Reddit isn't singing the praises of its corporate parent Condé Nast, which acquired the company in 2006.

And Reddit has previously written about the shortage of resources that Condé Nast… Read More
Reddit Convinced Roughly 6,000 Users To Subscribe So Far

Print publishers are in a tizzy over Apple's new iPad because they hope to finally be able to charge for their digital editions.

We've already seen plenty of prototypes from magazine publishers… Read More

So I had these lilies since Feb (meaning I planted them since Feb...prolly mid February..) and they were growing leaves and all...then I think come May or something the leaves just died off. I made sure the conditions were right and I don't know what happened. I read that if the stem is dead, a good way to check is the roots. Two of the four pips have a hint of greenish tint on it..I read from some post that they are VERY hard and confusing to grow..and I agree...I don't get these lilies. |

Looks like a viable root and pip start to me. It does seem to be true that getting them established (it can take a couple of years) is the hardest part. But once they take, you'll have them for life. I'd put that one back in the ground. Many gardeners find them to be a nuisance, but I like them and have them where they can spread without impacting anything else. Should they get out of control, I can spade up the leading edge to move them back. |

I'm not sure what to tell you. LOV's have a pretty extensive root system as you can see. If they're not mushy and rotten, I'd expect them to be good. I'd get them in the ground a few inches deep, water them in and see what happens. There's a fair amount of information on LOV on the web. |

Yeah so I've read, but not much about what to do when they are being complicated in growing them. |
- Posted by gardengal48 PNW zone 8 (My Page) on Sat, Jul 12, 14 at 19:34
This plant is actually not a lily but more closely related to asparagus. And it is extremely easy to grow - just wants loose, fertile soil in at least part shade. Orientation is not all that critical but those little cone shaped points are the new stems for next season and should be pointed upwards. Cover with 3-4 inches of soil. LOV take around 3 years to establish well and then, watch out!! Many folks complain they will try to take over. They also often want to go dormant in summer. No worries there, either. |
- Posted by anime_lover713 none (My Page) on Sat, Jul 12, 14 at 22:33
How are they easy to grow when they take 3 years to establish as you say? And why give them the name of Lily? |
- Posted by gardengal48 PNW zone 8 (My Page) on Sun, Jul 13, 14 at 17:11
I'm gonna assume you are new to gardening cuz any plant other than annuals typically take several seasons to establish and the larger the plant, the longer it takes. And by 'establish' I mean fully settled in, adequate root development and beginning the tendency to spread. Planted now, you will have growth and most likely flowers next spring but that's a long way from established. And many plants have 'lily' in the common name that have nothing to do with lilies. Common names are just made up names or plant nicknames if you will and have nothing at all to do with the actual botanical classification. There are very likely more non-lily plants with 'lily' in the common name than there are true lilies :-)) Here's just a few: |

I'm not new to gardening, however just new to Lilies. I know that there are some plants out there that are like this case and some that are not. |

Feb. 24 (Bloomberg) -- Surgutneftegas, a Russian oil producer, canceled the tender for a Urals crude cargo loading on Feb. 27 to Feb. 28 from the Baltic Sea port of Ust-Luga, according to three traders who participate in the market.
Glencore International Plc, which was awarded the 100,000- metric-ton cargo last week, will get one or two shipments from Primorsk on the Baltic Sea as compensation, said the people, who declined to be identified because the information is confidential.
OAO Transneft, which operates the new oil terminal, plans to perform a "test" loading of a 100,000-ton tanker starting on Feb. 29 or March 1 that will be monitored by Russia's industrial safety watchdog, Rostekhnadzor, Igor Dyomin, a spokesman for the oil pipeline monopoly, said by phone from Moscow today.
Ust-Luga's opening was delayed from the end of November because of engineering difficulties at the wharves, Dyomin said in December.

Ostergaard K et al. – Long–term non–persistence with antiplatelet treatment was high and more pronounced in the patients with less severe stroke. The findings on the use of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and dipyridamole indicate that non–persistence may in part be amenable to simple intervention measures.
Methods- Population–based prescription register data were used to determine antiplatelet drug use in a cohort of stroke patients discharged from a Danish neurology department.
- The antiplatelet drugs comprised acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), clopidogrel and dipyridamole (if combined with ASA use).
- Non–persistence was defined as failure to present a prescription for antiplatelet drugs within 180 days after the dosage of a previous prescription had run out, or within 180 days after discharge.
- Cox regression was used to identify risk factors for non–persistence.
- The cohort comprised 503 patients with ischaemic stroke discharged in 1999–2001.
- During follow–up (median 2.8 years, interquartile range 0.8–7.8 years), 486 of the subjects presented prescriptions for antiplatelets.
- Most subjects used a dual regimen of ASA and dipyridamole (N=320).
- Of 110 non–persistent subjects in this group, 64 stopped using ASA, but continued to use dipyridamole in monotherapy.
- Overall, 181 patients (36 %) were non–persistent.
- Stroke severity was inversely associated with the risk of non–persistence [NIHSS score on admission 0–3 (reference); 4–6: hazard risk (HR) 0.87, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 0.61–1.25; 7+: HR 0.47, 95 % CI 0.29–0.74].

'Real Housewives of OC' Reunion: Meow! Heather Tells Alexis 'It's Time to Lie Down' (VIDEO)
The women of Bravo's The Real Housewives of Orange County came together on Tuesday's reunion special to break down the season that was. And now that they (and us) have seen how it all went down and what was said behind each other's backs, it's time to say the things that were left unsaid.
That's exactly what new girl Heather Dubrow did when she accused Alexis Bellino of being nasty to the show's production crew and basically the entire sales staff of Nordstrom.
Heather wins our "Meow Moment" of the reunion. What did she tell Alexis?
"Don't shake your head no to me," Heather sharpens her claws. "Take this as a moment to look inside yourself and see that if everyone says your dead, it's time to lie down."
Burn! By the look on Alexis' face, I'm not sure she got the metaphor. At any rate, she denies that she treats the crew or the ales people badly. Relive the moment and watch the video above.
Do you think Heather was right? Is it time for Alexis to face the music? Tell us in the comments section below.

Re:re Online Dating is Out! (313 comments)
People have unhappy marriages because they stop doing the things for their spouse that they used to do when the relationship was new. They've gotten complacent, stopped doing the extra effort, and then they are surprised to find out that the love feelings just isn't as strong anymore.
I came to that understanding from reading this: http://www.5lovelanguages.com/
There is a lot of good stuff in there and I think if more people followed advice like that, fewer relationships would go south. Of course, you have to be willing and nothing will help you if you are selfish. Some people simply are too selfish for a long term relationship to work.

Re:Easy... (1121 comments)
Trying to do good is inadequate. Matthew 22:36-40 36 "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" 37 Jesus replied: "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'[a] 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'[b] 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments." Love is far more complex than simply trying to be good, and loving everyone is one of the most important things any of us can do. The purpose of the Bible is not to tell you how to think, but rather to direct your thoughts to the truth you already know in your heart. You already know how to love because God has put that knowledge into all of our hearts. However, loving others is often times the hardest thing in the world to do. That is why we have things like the Bible to help us along.

I have a C# COM Enabled Library which talks to a third-party application.
I am using a Visual Studio Setup Project to register and populate a required registry key.
Should I be COM registering the Library.dll and/or Library.tlb file?
Note: This question was based on the fact I was actually registering both files. The only problem is the third-party program could not find my file based on its error logs.
I previously accepted Paul Sasik's response as the answer. I recently decided it would be best to start to review my old questions and attempt to provide some clarity. It also has to do with the fact people are being vindictive about their downvotes and I am frankly sick of it.

No matter the size of the hole, we have just the right beading needle to suit your needs! We carry a broad range of beading needle styles and sizes for any beading cord or thread. We've got long and short sharp needles in all your favorite sizes #08 through #15. We also carry twisted wire beading needles, big eye beading needles and even crochet hooks! If you have difficulty threading your small eyed beading needles, you can try using a needle threader or you can try this simple trick: Loop a very fine thread like size "OO" or "A" around your chosen stringing material to lead the thicker material through the eye! Keep track of your beading needles with a needle case!
