'The Matrix,' 'Dirty Harry,' and More Added to National Film Registry
Movie News By Scott Beggs on December 19, 2012 | Be the First To CommentWe've lost something close to 3/4 of black and white films. It's easy to imagine that we have all of them at our fingertips, and that they'll be there forever, but that's simply not the reality, and it's a good reminder of what can happen if we're not careful. That's part of why the work of the National Film Registry is so vital. They ensure that a large number of time-tested films survive to test even more time. This year, as usual, they've selected 25 flicks to preserve including The Matrix, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Dirty Harry, and A Christmas Story (which will also be preserved 24-hours a day as long as TBS still exists). The Library of Congress has also saved Delmer Daves' 3:10 to Yuma (1957); Otto Preminger's Anatomy of a Murder; George Cukor's Born Yesterday; Penny Marshall's A League of Their Own; Richard Linklater's Slacker; the Laurel and Hardy comedy Sons of the Desert; Robert Epstein's documentary The Times of Harvey Milk; Monte Hellman's Two-Lane Blacktop; a 1914 adaptation of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" that's thought to feature the first leading role by a black man; The Augustas (which may be the Scott Nixon compilation of towns in the US named Augusta); The Corbett-Fitzsimmons Fight from 1897; Nathaniel Dorsky's experimental Hours for Jerome Part 1 & 2; the Kidnapper's Foil films; the Kodachrome Color Motion-Picture Tests (which you can see below); Robert Snody's The Middleton Family at the New York World's Fair; Kary Antholis' holocaust documentary One Survivor Remembers; Rolf Forsberg and Tom Rook's Christian film Parable, which imagines Christ as a clown and the world as a circus; Ellen Bruno's Samsara: Death and Rebirth in […]
Does The Vintage Trailer of The Day Feel Lucky? Well, Does It, Punk?
Features By Scott Beggs on December 27, 2010 | Be the First To CommentEvery day, come rain or shine or internet tubes breaking, Film School Rejects showcases a trailer from the past. Today's trailer knows what you're thinking. Did it fire six shots or only five. Well, to tell you the truth, in all the excitement it sorta lost count. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question. Think you know what it is? Check out the trailer after the jump.

Ten Movie Badasses You Don't Mess With
Features By Fat Guys at the Movies on June 6, 2008 | Comments (16)Forget the Zohan! With the Zohan, the worst thing that can happen is you'll get squeezed between his unnaturally hard butt cheeks. With these other characters, you risk death… or worse.

Clint Eastwood Officially Smarter than George Lucas
Movie News By Scott Beggs on May 23, 2008 | Comments (2)Hollywood's not known for restraint. They like big budgets, big paydays and like to eat a species of shrimp even larger than Jumbo. But finally, someone is showing some backbone by not rehashing an old franchise for the easy money.

Australia is an incredibly vast and diverse country – you could spend years travelling and not see it all. But at least you could start scratching the surface in 2011.
1. Pick an island, any island.
Eschew your typical Aussie destinations and head for some less-visited islands. On the cusp of a tourism boom, Kangaroo Island, just south of Adelaide, is a pristine green-carpeted 150km-long paradise. Find your own spot on a beach, sample delicious local produce or just crash at the pricey but high-end Southern Ocean Lodge (the views are amazing). BYO or hire wheels – it's largeish and a car makes life easier.
King Island, to the north of Tasmania, has a population of roughly 1650 and is a mere 64km by 27km. A tiny pinprick on the map! It is, however, home to King Island Dairy – free tastings! There's not much to do except eat, sleep, go fishing, go diving (there are wrecks in the area) and take a break from real life.
2. Have an affair with MONA
The Museum of Old & New Art, aka MONA, is opening in Hobart on 22 January 2011. It's set to be the place to visit in 2011. The private collection's claims to fame are its size (largest in the southern hemisphere) and value ($100 million worth of quality art). The opening festivities are preceded by the MOFO – the MONA Festival of Music and Art. Artists gracing the festival include Philip Glass, Amanda Palmer, The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion and acts from Australia and places as far away as Iceland.
Not to be outdone, the National Gallery of Australia in Canberra will no doubt be heavily marketing their newly opened (in late 2010) Indigenous wing.
3. Restaurants as destinations
Even the Global Financial Crisis didn't even make a dent in the openings of new restaurants across Australia. 2011 will be the year it all comes to a head – food snobbery will be at an all-time high and really, there's nothing wrong with that. Jump in your car, turn on the GPS and head to one of many superb country restaurants. Stalwarts include the Royal Mail Hotel in Dunkeld, and Stefano's in Mildura. Young upstarts are also rocking it with excellent food and creative presentation. Visit Loam in Drysdale and hit the town Orange in NSW for a clutch of restaurants including Lolli Redini and Tonic. Better start drawing straws to determine the designated driver…
4. Visit Newcastle
Controversially nominated in Lonely Planet's Best in Travelas #9 in the list of top 10 cities to visit in 2011, Newcastle is definitely worth a visit. While it lacks the glam and glitz of its bigger neighbour Sydney, there's plenty of lo-fi charm in Newcastle. Make friends with locals and they'll unlock the local secrets – favourite watering holes, local gigs, secret spots on the beach, cool coffee shops etc. Or head to one of the many beaches for a swim, tan or surf (minus Sydney crowds). Stockton Beach, with its fine sand, stretches as far as the eye can see. Or jump into the convict-carved Bogey Hole ocean baths.
5. Dive and snorkel the Great Barrier Reef
The only other Aussie destination to make Lonely Planet's Best in Travel, the Great Barrier Reef was number seven in the top 10 regions to visit in 2011. Its inclusion isn't surprising considering that the reef is the world's largest, and the only living organism viewable from outer space. Contrary to popular opinion, most of the damage to the reef is actually being inflicted by climate change (global warming causes coral bleaching), and pollution from rivers (caused by run-off during floods). Tourism actually has a much smaller ecological footprint as the main launching points to visit the region only account for 7% of the actual reef. Just remember to pick an environmentally responsible tour operator to minimise any feelings of guilt you might have.
6. Go on a multi-day hike
Pack your backpacks, lace your Gore-Tex boots. Australia's iconic trek, the Overland Track in Tasmania, is a six-day, five-night epic that takes you through 65km from Cradle Valley in the north to Lake St Clair in the south. Along the way, you'll pass through Eucalypt forests and buttongrass valleys. It's well worth the sweat and pain that comes with a long hike. For another great Australian hike try the Larapinta Trail in the Northern Territory, a 12-stage, 233.5km track with varying degrees of difficulty (each stage is accessible via 4WD so you don't have to do it from start to finish).
7. Go on an outback road trip
Head out West, hire a 4WD and drive north along the unpaved Gibb River Road. This 660km drive in Western Australia takes you from Derby to Kununurra and it's one of the great outback highways. The terrain is at times inhospitable and impassable during the rainy season but expect highways with endless vistas of red dirty, blue open skies and rugged terrain. Make pit stops along the way – there are stunning gorges, picturesque riverbeds, pounding waterfalls – perfect to cool off in. Book accommodation in advance, especially during the peak months of June to August. The drive isn't to be taken lightly but with advance planning, you'll have a ball of a time. Did someone say, 'Road TRIP!?'
8. Volunteer
Volunteering: it's a great way to meet fellow travellers and feel good at the same time. Conservation Volunteers Australia runs over 2000 projects around Australia each year. These range from tree planting to wildlife surveys and walking-track conservation. The Willing Workers on Organic Farms is a chance for you to trade labour on an organic or biodynamic farm in return for bed and board. Lastly, Earthwatch has animal conservation projects all around Australia. These last anywhere from a day to a weekend to ten days. Families are welcome too.
9. Bright lights, big city
Sydney or Melbourne. Is there really the need to pick one? Just visit both and stay a couple of days. Each city has its own unique flavour. Melbourne is arty, cultured and slightly snobbish. Sydney is bold, brash, beautiful, slightly stuck-up, and filled with in-your-face world-class sights. Think the Opera (Oprah) House, Sydney Harbour Bridge and fabulous beaches perfect for surfing and tanning. But the great leveller between the two cities has to be food. Sydney has Tetsuya's and Quay. Melbourne has Vue de Monde and Cutler & Co. Both cities are home to Rockpool. So there.
10. Do a sporting tour
Pick a major sporting event to attend and make a holiday of it. Here's a list of just some sporting events across 2011:
Australian Open: Grand Slam tennis in Melbourne (17–30 January). The preceding Kooyong Classic is a good chance to catch superstars on the cheap (12-15 January).
Santos Tour Down Under: Catch Lance Armstrong in his last international race in South Australia (16–23 January).
Surfest: One of the premier surfing competitions. Held at Merewether Beach in Newcastle, NSW (7–19 March).
Grand Prix: Fast cars tear up the tracks in Melbourne. Can Webber do Australia proud? (24–27 March).
International Rugby Sevens: 16 countries and 44 matches across two days in Adelaide (2–3 April).
Melbourne Cup: See and be seen at the horse race that stops the nation. Ok, it stops one state at least (1 November).

text: Unfortunately, many polyps and early cancers fail to produce symptoms. Therefore, it is important that your routine physical includes colorectal cancer detection procedures once you reach age 40. Those detection methods are a digital rectal exam and a chemical test of stool for blood. A sigmoidoscopy - the inspection of the lower bowel with a lighted tubular instrument - should be part of routine physical check-ups. How Is Colorectal Cancer Treated? Colorectal cancer requires surgery in nearly all cases for complete cure. Radiation and chemotherapy are sometimes used in addition to surgery. Between 80-90% are restored to normal health if the cancer is detected and treated in the earliest stages. The cure rate drops to 50% or less when diagnosed in the later stages. Thanks to modern technology, less than 5% of all colorectal cancer patients require a colostomy, the surgical construction of an artificial excretory opening from the colon. Can Colon Cancer Be Prevented? There are steps that reduce the risk of contracting the disease. One way is having benign polyps removed by an outpatient procedure called colonoscopy. In addition to removing the polyps, the long flexible tubular instrument used in the procedure provides a more thorough bowel examination. Though not definitely proven, there is some evidence that diet may play a significant role in preventing colorectal cancer. As far as we know, a high fiber, low fat diet is the only dietary measure that might help prevent colorectal cancer. Finally, you must be aware of changes in your bowel habits and make sure bowel examinations are included in routine physicals once you fall under the "high risk" category. Can Hemorroids Lead to Colon Cancer? No, but hemorrhoids may produce symptoms similar to colon polyps or cancer. Should you experience these symptoms, you should have them examined and evaluated by a physician, preferably by a colon and rectal surgeon. Reference: American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons

The term "caching drive" is something that many people are becoming accustomed to as are we. We really started seeing these caching drives when Intel came out with their Z68 chipset that allowed you to add a smaller solid state drive to your existing drive, which would increase overall performance. This is great for people who have an Intel Z68 motherboard, but what about everyone else? This is where OCZ's Synapse Cache drive comes in. It is a SATA 6GB/s solid state drive, but comes with software that allows you to make it a caching drive on any PC system. Read on as we check it out!

Today we are unboxing a rather small hard drive in terms of capacity as it is only 64GB. This drive is only 64GB because it is made to be a caching drive that is combined with your normal hard drive for improved performance. Since the release of the Z68 chipset from Intel we have been seeing these drives, but OCZ has their own software that enables this drive to become a caching drive on any PC system, not just an Intel Z68 system. Read on as we unboxing this drive and even open it up!

Out of all the products we reviewed in 2011 some of my favorite were Solid State Drives.

There were a few drives that really stood out to us and that is what you will find on this list. Keep in mind that this list is comprised of drives that we have reviewed only. Read on to see what our favorite solid state drives of 2011 were!

Silicon Power is not a name you really think about when you think about solid state drives. If you did not know Silicon Power was founded in 2003 and they mainly specialize in memory products. Today we are going to take a look at one of their first SATA 6GB/s drives the Velox Series V30. This drive is powered by the SandForce SF-2281 controller and boast speeds of 550MB/s read and 500MB/s write. Let's check it out!

Silicon Power is a new sponsor here at ThinkComputers and one of the first products they have sent us is their Velox Series V30 60GB Solid State Drive. This is their first 6GB/s solid state drive and has rated speeds of up to 550MB/s read and 500MB/s write. Read on as we open up the drive and take a look at what's inside!

With all of the SATA 6GB/s drives coming out this year we have really pushed the limits of solid state drives. Most of the solid state drives we have tested max out at about 550MB/s. We are not going to see a SATA-connected drive go much faster than that until the next revision of SATA, which will not come for a while. So if you want to get faster speeds you will either need to RAID your drives or choose a different interface. OCZ has been at the forefront of PCI-E solid state drive development with the RevoDrive series. Now on its third version of the drive it is powered by the latest SandForce controller and boasts speed of 1000MB/s read and 900MB/s write! Let's take a look at the 240GB version of the drive.

Rainwater harvesting has been successful in Rajasthan, says expert
'Fisheries, agriculture in coastal Karnataka will be adversely affected by the move'
Legislation sought to stop non-forest activity in Western Ghats
MANGALORE: Even as environmentalists cry foul over the proposal to divert Netravati River, the question that arises is whether there is no other way to provide succour to the parched districts of south-central Karnataka? What is it that sets the semi-arid districts such as Kolar and Chitradurga apart from the scorched plains of Rajasthan, where rainwater harvesting has seen major success?
The Nanduli River in Jaipur district of Rajasthan virtually disappeared from the landscape by 2002 and the ground water levels plummeted, leading to a mass-migration of the population there. A local non-governmental organisation (NGO) named 'Sambhav' entered this dismal scene in 2002 and started a project to rejuvenate the extinct river, and wells in the region. They turned things around in just five years and today, the Nanduli flows throughout the year there.
Citing this example, rainwater harvesting expert and conservationist Shree Padre said that Jaipur received much less annual average rainfall compared to the semi-arid districts of Karnataka such as Kolar and Chitradurga.
The present Netravati diversion proposal plans to cut a diagonal canal through the many small rivulets and streams that fed the Netravati in the upper reaches of the Western Ghats.
Shree Padre pointed to the disastrous consequences of a similar project where an underground tunnel was dug between Bagur and Navile in Hassan.
S.G. Mayya, professor of Water Resources Engineering at the National Institute of Technology — Karnataka, Surathkal, said that except the four monsoon months, an acute water shortage prevailed in coastal Karnataka as well. Vasudev Boloor of the National Fish Workers Federation said that the Netravti in spate brought in several essential nutrients that sustained marine life. "Fish come to feed on these nutrients and if the river is diverted, it will have disastrous consequences on fishing," he said. Environmentalist Niren Jain said: "People have taken notice of the word 'diversion', which has an end-of-the-world touch to it."

She added, "The women of Wal-Mart – together with women everywhere – will now face a far steeper road to challenge and correct pay and other forms of discrimination in the workplace."
The Wal-Mart litigation is not necessarily over. The female employees can file individual lawsuits claiming discrimination and seeking back pay. They could also break the massive lawsuit down into smaller, more focused lawsuits.
In reaching its decision, the high court rejected what it called "Trial by Formula."
Writing for five members of the court, Justice Antonin Scalia said that under federal rules of civil procedure the class action lawsuit again Wal-Mart should not have been approved because it lacked a single common question tying each employee's claims together for efficient resolution in a single trial.
"Here respondents wish to sue about literally millions of employment decisions at once," Justice Scalia wrote. "Without some glue holding the alleged reasons for all those decisions together, it will be impossible to say that examination of all the class members' claims for relief will produce a common answer to the crucial question why was I disfavored."
Earlier dissent is cited
Scalia quoted an earlier dissent in the case written by Ninth Circuit Chief Judge Alex Kozinski. He wrote that members of the class "held a multitude of different jobs, at different levels of Wal-Mart's hierarchy, for variable lengths of time, in 3,400 stores, sprinkled across 50 states, with a kaleidoscope of supervisors (male and female), subject to a variety of regional policies that all differed…. Some thrived while others did poorly. They have little in common but their sex and this lawsuit."
Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and three other members of the court dissented to that portion of Scalia's decision, saying they would have decided the case on narrower grounds.

While playing with the Blasters, Alvin had already displayed a broad range of enthusiasms with two side projects, Chris D.'s literate goth-punk collective the Flesh Eaters and the Knitters, an acoustic ensemble in which Alvin performed vintage country and folk numbers with John Doe and Exene Cervenka of X. Shortly after leaving the Blasters, Alvin joined X as lead guitarist after the departure of Billy Zoom; however, Alvin amicably left the group to work on a solo project shortly after the recording sessions for their album See How We Are. Alvin's first solo album, entitled Romeo's Escape in the United States and Every Night About This Time in England, added a purer country influence along with a larger side portion of the blues; while the album was critically well received, it didn't fare well in the marketplace, and Alvin was dropped by his American record label, Columbia. Alvin suffered health problems that sidelined him for a while, except for a wild tour with friends Mojo Nixon and Country Dick Montana as the Pleasure Barons, which was described as "a Las Vegas revue from acts who aren't going to be asked to play Vegas." (A live album was released of a second Pleasure Barons tour in 1993.)
In 1989, Dwight Yoakam scored a hit on the country charts with Alvin's song "Long White Cadillac," and Alvin used the royalties to start work on his second solo set, Blue Blvd. Released by the California-based roots-music label Hightone Records, Blue Blvd received enthusiastic reviews and sold well enough to reestablish Alvin as a significant artist in the roots rock scene. After releasing Museum of Heart in 1993, Alvin began to turn his attention to acoustic music with 1994's King of California, and over the next several years Alvin moved back and forth between hard-edged roots rock and more introspective acoustic material that still honored his influences (and allowed him to display a greater range as a vocalist). In 2000, Alvin recorded a collection of traditional folk and blues classics, Public Domain: Songs from the Wild Land, which earned him a Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Folk Album. In 2004, Alvin signed with the upstart roots rock label Yep Roc Records, which released his album Ashgrove, a low-key but hard-edged set of blues and rock. It was followed in 2006 by West of the West and a year later by Live from Austin TX (a performance on Austin City Limits from 1999).
He changed his approach a bit with Dave Alvin and the Guilty Women, which was issued by Yep Roc in 2009, by recording with five women, and it seemed to revitalize him. Eleven Eleven, Alvin's first solo studio album of original material in some seven years, appeared in 2011, again on Yep Roc. When not busy recording his own music, Alvin has also worked as a producer for several other roots-oriented acts, including Tom Russell, the Derailers, and Big Sandy & His Fly-Rite Boys, and he has collaborated with rockabilly legend Sonny Burgess. As a sideman, Alvin has recorded sessions with the likes of Ramblin' Jack Elliott, Little Milton, Katy Moffatt, and Syd Straw. ~ Mark Deming & Steve Leggett, Rovi

The CHOP-Penn Transition Program includes adult and pediatric gastroenterologists, hepatologists, a full-time nurse practitioner and other healthcare providers from The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and Penn Medicine, part of the University of Pennsylvania Health System. Together, we work to ensure a smooth transition from pediatric care to adult care.
Our team will work closely with you and your child to prepare you for the transition years in advance. We then provide comprehensive support during the actual transition process.
Our program offers services to patients transitioning from CHOP to Penn Medicine. We also assist students from colleges in the Philadelphia region and other young adults new to the area who are seeking care at Penn Medicine.
Watch our transition video series for helpful tips from patients, doctors and nurse practitioners on how to make the transition to adulthood with a chronic illness as smooth as possible.
Program features and benefits
The Transition Program nurse practitioner will:
- Meet periodically with you to begin preparing for transition.
- Provide information about being a young adult with a chronic illness, so you can make the safest choices. Topics include: working with college advisors so illness-related needs are met; sex, drugs and alcohol; health insurance; traveling; and much more.
- Talk to the pediatric specialist about your particular needs during transition.
- Help you learn about health insurance and prepare the necessary paperwork.
- Review the list of adult doctors at Penn Medicine and help you decide who might be the best fit.
- Serve as a liaison between the pediatric and adult specialist.
- Go along on the first appointment with the adult specialist.
Other benefits of the Transition Program:
- Referrals/recommendations for out-of-town doctors if you are moving away for college or a job
- Educational workshops with doctors and nurse practitioners
- Peer-to-peer panels so you can hear advice from people your own age

NOOOOO! The new blushing bride is not the same! I fell in love with the color as I tried out the tester. My first clue before purchasing was the package. The blush I was about to buy had a pinkier packaging with a different logo. (Old logo has the word "Tarte" with some curly flowery design around it. The new logo just has the word "Tarte")
The package did say Blushing Bridge so I thought maybe they just changed the packaging. When I got home the actual blush was a more rosy pink than it was berry or plum like. Why did Tarte do this! I have read that the other blushes are also different when compared to their older version.

Omg one of my best blushes by far, a beautiful berry! Where has the blush been all my life lol! Love it!

This is fastly becoming my favourite blush! I had never tried anything from Tarte prior to this as it's not available in my country, but I got this as a gift and I couldn't be any happier.
The colours is gorgeous and looks really good with my pale complexion. Not overly pigmented, but buildable and has excellent staying power.
I also feel like this pan is going to last me forever! I've used it almost daily for a month now and still haven't destroyed the beautiful pattern on the blush.
I really, really want ot try more colours now.
Love this blush! It's a pretty plummy golden shimmer blush! Very pigmented and it will last forever HG blush!

Luv this blush this is my 3rd from Tarte and I really like it for Fall/Winter. It's like Nars Sin but more of a berry tone. It is super pigmented so you barely need to swipe to get a good amount of colour. For me i'm an NW15, blonde hair, and green eyes so I am very fair and too much could make me look sun burnt. The right amount looks so natural and pretty so I start very slow with this bad boy. I found it lasted on me from the morning till I washed it off at 6 P.M. not bad at all for a blusher in my opinion. There is shimmer but honestly it doesn't really transfer to the skin. I think in natural light it looks lovely and to me it seemed matte. Shimmer isn't a problem or deal breaker for me though because I love it and will wear shimmer as long as I can get away with it;)
If you hate shimmer definitely swatch this before you buy it. If you are not too worried about that it's an excellent colour for Fall/Winter this and Sin are my go to's for these seasons and I love how it looks. A nice lippie and mascara and it looked great. It's a beautiful colour that can look good on a ton of skin tones and that's what is great about it. To me it leans cool which I like being a cool toned person so for me this was a great B-Day purchase. If you're looking for a nice cold weather colour I say try this it looks amazing on and gives a beautiful berry flush. Luv Tartes blushes they really are good and you get a lot of product for the $$ so if you're a blush lover like myself this is a great one to add to your stash.;) Definitely Recommended!

I got this at sephora for 26.00. It claims 12 hour lasting power although i don't think i had ever worn makeup for that long. Of course it is in blushing bride. it is a beautiful berry or rosy colour there is little shimmer in it, which does not bother me. I want to purchase another one in a different colour, and speaking of colour there is a nice range of colours from pinks, purple, coral, browns and berries. Probably one of my favourite blush in my blush collection.

I love this blush sooo much! I loved Nars blush in Sin and find this to be very similar but BETTER. I don't notice the glitter on the face and I have extremely oily skin. Color is pigmented so i have to use a light hand. Tarte amazonian clay blushes are by far my all time favorite blushes EVER! I have almost all of the colors and find them to be the longest wearing, and pigmented blushes I've ever tried.
I've heard people say that these aren't pigmented and I've found that sometimes these blushes DO seem to be more difficult to grab and appear to be less pigmented in time, especially when swatching in the store. I've swatched colors in the store that I own and KNOW to be very pigmented and they barely swatched at all. I believe this is because of the nature of the amazonian clay, it will absorb oils from your makeup brushes/fingers and develop a thin film on the surface. When I first noticed that my blush wasn't as pigmented as it had been at first, I took a tissue and gently rubbed off the top layer of the surface and it was as good as new again and pigmented as ever. I have made sure to clean my brushes often to prevent this from happening.
I couldn't say which shade is my favorite because I totally love all the ones I have and use them all very often, but Blushing Bride would have to be the one I use a tiny bit more than the others. It is a very natural berry shade and gives the most georgeous flush to the cheeks. I tend to use a small duo fiber brush to avoid over-doing it and it works great. I am a medium skintone but believe this shade would look nice on even the fairest complexions if used very sparingly. It can also be bright enough to look beautiful on deeper skin tones. Glitter is very noticeable in the pan, but I don't notice it much at all on my face.
Packaging: At first, I thought the packaging looked very cheap and reminded me of the play makeup I used to play with when I was a little kid, BUT i have come to really appreciate the thought that went into the packaging. It is great that they are the same color as the shade of blush, which makes it easier to grab the one you want right away. Also, there is a tiny hole on the back of the package, which is magnetized. If you poke a pin or paper clip through the hole, it easily pops out the pan making it easy to place in a palette if you want. It also has a mirror and is small enough to carry around in your purse without being too bulky and heavy. I really really love everything about these blushes. I have a box full of nars/mac/misc. blushes that will probably never be used again thanks to Tarte, but I don't miss them one bit. I love Tarte blushes whole heartedly!!!

Dark dusty rose color w/ gold shimmer. The glitters are super fine and barely noticable when I wear it. (which I like... not big on shimmery blushes) Lasting power/texture/blendability is nice.. However, not a huge fan on the color... At least not on me. On someone less pale, would probably look nice... Probably amazing on olive complexions

Ok, so I went to Ulta to find a nice blush for the winter as I am a lot lighter now in the winter months and the bronze look is obviously not cutting it anymore. I had 3 different blushes in my hand, one from Tarte, Bare Minerals and Too Faced. Tarte had such a huge variety, so I decided to try Tarte. Not sure why I went with this color as I tend to lean towards corals and colors like NARS orgasm. But I LOVE IT! For starters, this blush is HIGHLY pigmented. Therefore, it took me a few applications to get it right. First, I bought a separate blush brush. I apply my mineral makeup, then I add just a tad of NARS Laguna bronzer (since it is buildable, I just add a thin layer on nose, cheeks, swipe on forehead, and chin). Finally I add the Tarte blush on top just to my cheeks. It gives me SUCH a pretty flushed color. I thought it was too much, but my mom says it looks awesome on me and she's running out the get the same color (and she's my toughest critic). Others have commented on the sparkle. You can see it in the pan, but I just don't see it on my skin. I see a bright color, slight glow. Other have also commented on the staying power. I agree, this is NOT a 12 hour blush. I would say about 8 hour tops, but it's such a pretty color and it's full proof to apply that I still think it deserves 5 stars!

Facebook co-founder sells off shares
Comment on this storyNew York - Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskovitz shed 450,000 shares of Facebook in the past few days for proceeds of about $9 million - a tiny chunk of his total stake.
Moskovitz was Mark Zuckerberg's Harvard roommate when they founded Facebook in 2004. He disclosed in a regulatory filing late Tuesday that he sold the shares on Friday, Monday and Tuesday in blocks of 150,000.
He sold the shares for $18.79 to $20.08 each for proceeds of nearly $9 million.
Moskovitz, 28, left Facebook in 2008 and started Asana, whose software helps manage projects.
He did not sell any stock in Facebook's IPO.
He still owns more than 133 million shares. Based on the filing, he could sell 7 million more shares he converted from Class B to Class A. - Sapa-AP

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
'Trying' times ahead for Bombers
If nothing else, the 2014 squad will be busting their butts to win
Fans of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers were made just one promise by the club's new brain trust at Monday night's annual Fan Forum at Investors Group Field -- and it wasn't more wins this coming season.
Instead, the 200 or so fans who turned up were told again and again that whatever the final scores up on the board in 2014, they will be impressed by the effort their team will show in the upcoming CFL season.
"Whatever the result, I can assure you will be impressed by the effort. I will not stand for a lack of effort," head coach Mike O'Shea told the crowd. "I guarantee you will leave the stadium and be proud of the effort that was put forth."
-- Bombers head coach Mike O'Shea
The Bombers have missed the playoffs in four of the last five years and are coming off a 3-15 season, so it was by design the club's new leadership did not write any cheques they couldn't cash to its fanbase.
Instead of focusing on wins and losses, O'Shea, GM Kyle Walters and CEO Wade Miller all spoke about assembling a team that will at least try hard, something not always in evidence last year.
"(O'Shea) won't take any BS from the players. You're either in or you're out," said Walters.
-- Bombers GM Kyle Walters
"I think you guys are going to enjoy the way Mike runs this football club."
Walters also pointed out money will no longer be an excuse for poor performance on the field, noting a 13 per cent year over year increase in spending on football operations means half the money the Bombers now spend is on football operations and the club now has a coaching and scouting staff as big as any in the CFL.
"You will certainly be able to question certain decisions if they don't work out," Walters told the crowd. "But nobody in this room will be able to question the time, energy and thought that goes into the decisions being made by this football operations department.
"It's on myself and Mike now to put a winning product on the field and we're ready for that challenge."
Here's some other tidbits to come out of the forum:
- Walters said the Bombers will announce in the next 24-48 hours they have signed a "recognizable name" at middle linebacker. Among the experienced CFL middle linebackers on the free agent market right now are Brandon Isaac and Ejiro Kuale;
- Brock Bulbuck, chairman of the Bombers board, said changes to the board structure in the past year and changes in the way the club conducts business has made the Bombers "one of the most, if not the most, transparent community organizations in the province."
- Bulbuck said the annual financial report the Bombers released Monday might be the most detailed the club has ever released;
- Changes for gameday at Investors Group Field in 2014 will include two new bars on the 200 level to mitigate crowding on the main level concourse; an enhanced "tailgating" experience beginning two-and-a-half hours before game time and five new charging stations inside the stadium for cellphones;

'Tis the Season to Keep Pets Safe! Remember Fido When Planning Your Holiday Celebrations
Can you believe the holidays are already upon us?! Time to start ticking names off that holiday shopping list and gathering all the yummy ingredients for your holiday meal. It's an exciting time, but when it comes to our pets, let's not forget the dangers that come along with all the festivities. So many new scents, visitors coming and going, treats, candy and so much more. Our furry friends become vulnerable to many new dangers at this time of year. It's important to keep them safe because let's face it – the holidays would be missing something special if our pets were injured or sick because they got into something they shouldn't have!
What can you do to make sure Fido and Whiskers are safe this holiday season?
Nothing gets us in the holiday spirit more than getting out our favourite holiday decorations and putting them in the perfect spots throughout our home. Tinsel is one of those things that comes to mind when we think of holiday decorating. It is fun to play with and hang on the Christmas tree, but cats and dogs are attracted to tinsel and if swallowed, it could cause serious harm. If tinsel is a holiday staple in your apartment or house, make sure it's out of pet's reach.
Our furry friends are always quite curious, so putting up a decorated tree will definitely peak their curiosity! To prevent your tree from falling on your pet, we recommend securing it to the wall. You wouldn't want it to fall over when your pup goes by to sniff your new masterpiece!
Beware of pets around open flames on candles as this may also peak their curiosity. If they get too close, they may knock them over and accidently injure themselves or start a fire.
We all know how much our pets love to chew. When they see wires, batteries, glass and plastic ornaments, they probably wouldn't think twice about chowing down! The simple solution is to hang your ornaments higher up on the tree, and hide any kind of wires as much as possible.
Holiday plants and flowers add lots of atmosphere to any home. But did you know, Holly can cause pets to suffer nausea, vomiting and diarrhea? Mistletoe and poinsettia can also cause stomach upset. It's best to choose some other festive item (like fake flowers and plants) when decorating your home to make sure it stays pet-friendly.
Do you include your pets in your holiday gift-giving? Do they have their own special stocking hanging next to mom and dad's? If you're giving gifts to your pets, choose gifts that are safe for them. Some pets like to eat the stuffing found in toys. If this sounds like your pet, it's best to avoid these types of toys.
We bet your holiday meal smells delicious! Remember: it also smells delicious to your pets! They may be tempted to sneak a bite or two of their own so it might be a good idea to keep them in a separate and comfortable room while serving and eating your holiday meal. If you're serving alcohol, like human food and chocolate, alcoholic beverages are not meant for pets.
Using these tips won't take up too much of your time, but they'll definitely help keep the feline and canine members of your family out of trouble! So when you're drinking your eggnog, playing some festive holiday music and celebrating with your loved ones, you can rest assured that your pets' safety has been taken care of. Wishing everyone and their pets a very happy-and safe-holiday!

WATCH: More market update videos on TheStreet TV | More videos from Brittany Umar
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- U.S. authorities will reportedly seek more than $5 billion from BNP Paribas to settle allegations that the French bank violated U.S. sanctions, according to a report by Bloomberg.
U.S. authorities will reportedly seek more than $5 billion from BNP Paribas to settle allegations that the French bank violated U.S. sanctions.
That's according to a report by Bloomberg, which says discussions are ongoing and that the final amount of the settlement could change. Last week, reports said BNP was in talks to pay more than $3 billion. The reported numbers now exceed the $2.6 billion that Credit Suisse (CS - Get Report) agreed to pay in a settlement with the U.S. for aiding Americans in tax evasion. U.S. authorities launched an investigation into the bank for allegedly processing transactions with countries including Sudan and Iran, which are on U.S. sanctions lists. According to Bloomberg, U.S. prosecutors are seeking a guilty plea from the BNP, as they did in the case with Credit Suisse. The report says that in addition to the fine, New York Superintendent of Financial Services Benjamin Lawsky is considering temporarily banning BNP from transferring money in and out of the U.S. In New York, I'm Brittany Umar for TheStreet. --Written by Brittany Umar in New York.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors
