Amazon Deal of the Day: Cataclysm for $20 {WoW}
Jun 28th 2011 12:44PM I agree that they really ought to make the older expansions free. Maybe only keep the newest two expansions available for purchase, and thus make Wrath free once the next expansion comes out.
To clear stock they could further maybe add a pet or something to entice people to optionally pay for the old disks even though they can download it for free.

Totem Talk: Restoration's raiding talent specs {WoW}
Apr 13th 2011 12:40PM It is a pretty optional talent. It does have some uses where it makes things easier. Not everyone is clearing heroic raids on farm just yet. Some examples:
Magmaw: Written about in article.
Tron Council: Stand in Arcanotron's pools and get quicker mana regen.
Elevator boss: No defense. Priest healers are OP.
Maloriak: Plenty of time to use LB in phases.
Chimeron: LB a ton in phase 2.
Archamedes: If your raid is good at avoiding the avoidable damage you'll probably be casting nearly as many LB as you do heals in some periods.
Nef: If you're good enough to have time to LB, you probably outgear it.
Halfus: Once the drakes are down you'll have ample chance to use LB.
V&T: Not terribly useful due to high movement required.
Ascended: Also lots of time to use LB.
Cho'gall: If you're raid's fast on disrupts and maintaining adds you'll also have time.
Council of Wind: Depends on the bosses you're assigned but there's plenty of open space where you could use TC.
Al'Akir: Not so much.

Mar 3rd 2011 12:17PM Deathwing likes to kill me whenever I go afk in Uldum for some reason. He also has the power to kill you while you're flying behind him for whatever reason. I'm not sure I want to know how a dragon spews molten lava from behind...
Patch 4.1 PTR: Heirloom guild tabards aid reputation gains {WoW}
Feb 27th 2011 2:48PM Fact is you can get capped in ONE Saturday afternoon if you've got four other guildies who somehow feel that running all the heroics is a good idea. They really ought to double the cap at the very least. As is it takes months to hit a higher reputation with a guild, and that's just painful.

Cataclysm Beta: Testing Halfus Wyrmbreaker in Bastion of Twilight {WoW}
Oct 19th 2010 1:00PM If they nerf this trash (or anything in the raid) substantially I'll be pissed.
Having a pull like this in the first room is a perfect way to help weed out groups that wouldn't be able to finish more than a few bosses, QQ and drop leaving you stranded.
It is kind of annoying you can't polymorph them though...

CoreTSAR: Task Scheduling for Accelerator-aware Runtimes
Department of Computer Science, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA 24060 USA
Virginia Tech., Technical Report TR-12-20, 2012
title={CoreTSAR: Task Scheduling for Accelerator-aware Runtimes},
author={Scogland, T.R.W. and Feng, W. and Rountree, B. and de Supinski, B.R.},
Heterogeneous supercomputers that incorporate computational accelerators such as GPUs are increasingly popular due to their high peak performance, energy efficiency and comparatively low cost. Unfortunately, the programming models and frameworks designed to extract performance from all computational units still lack the flexibility of their CPU-only counterparts. Accelerated OpenMP improves this situation by supporting natural migration of OpenMP code from CPUs to a GPU. However, these implementations currently lose one of OpenMP's best features, its flexibility: typical OpenMP applications can run on any number of CPUs. GPU implementations do not transparently employ multiple GPUs on a node or a mix of GPUs and CPUs. To address these shortcomings, we present CoreTSAR, our runtime library for dynamically scheduling tasks across heterogeneous resources, and propose straightforward extensions that incorporate this functionality into Accelerated OpenMP. We show that our approach can provide nearly linear speedup to four GPUs over only using CPUs or one GPU while increasing the overall flexibility of Accelerated OpenMP.

Tennessee St. Tigers (2-3)
@18 North Carolina Tar Heels (4-0)
Tuesday, November 22
Dean E. Smith Center
Attendance: 17,509
Tennessee St.
18 North Carolina
Chapel Hill, NC (Sports Network) - Reggie Bullock has one mission off North Carolina's bench: score. And he did his damage beyond the arc on Tuesday, draining six treys as part of a career-best 23-point night in the top-ranked Tar Heels' 102-69 blitz of Tennessee State.
Bullock, North Carolina's best reserve scorer, ignited a North Carolina long- range game that made 11 triples. Harrison Barnes scored 16 points, as did John Henson to go along with 10 rebounds and a career-high six assists. Tyler Zeller added 12 points for the Tar Heels (4-0).
"It helps to say the least," North Carolina head coach Roy Williams said of the team's long-range success. "Everything looks better when the ball goes in the basket. I really believe we have good shooting from the 3-point line with Harrison [Barnes], Reggie [Bullock], P.J. [Hairston], and I really think it's important for us to have that as part of our game."
Kellen Thornton scored 15 points and Kenny Moore added 14, but the duo tallied just two points in the second half. Tennessee State (2-3) scored just 27 points in the final 20 minutes after a 42-point opening half that kept it in the game.
"Well, obviously they [UNC] shot the ball extremely well, especially in the first half. I thought they did so many good things offensively," Tennessee State head coach John Cooper said.
Tennessee State hung around due in large part to seven first-half threes, but once the well dried up, the overmatched Tigers saw a borderline double-digit game turn into a rout. North Carolina went on a 14-0 spurt, igniting a scoring flurry that allowed the Tar Heels to reach at least 100 points for the second straight game.
Moore and Thornton were a combined 11-of-17 in the first half, as Tennessee State used the drive-and-kick style to perfection, hanging with the high- octane Tar Heels for the better part of the half. North Carolina matched those seven triples in the opening half and took a 55-42 lead into the locker room.
The second half was icing on the cake for Bullock, who poured in two threes to post a career-best six for the game. He received several passes from Kendall Marshall, who scored just five points but mustered 15 assists, three off tying Raymond Felton's school record from 2003.
The offensively efficiency was far different than its 101-point output against Mississippi Valley State, as the Tar Heels finished with 32 assists on 41 made baskets and the team made 11-of-18 treys a game after connecting on just 5- of-18.
Wil Peters drained a three to open the second half, slicing the deficit to 55-45 before the home team blitzed the visitors with 14 straight points in not even four minutes. Slams by Zeller and Henson capped the stretch for a 69-45 lead.
The last two of Bullock's treys came about 1 1/2 minutes apart in the latter stages of the second half. The latter of his two threes opened a 92-56 lead, and Williams cleared his bench shortly thereafter.

Jay Mohr will return at BlizzCon 2009 {WoW}
Jul 14th 2009 4:11PM I'd be more impressed if Nikki Cox was there, too.
Why Varian Wrynn is a fool, part II {WoW}
May 28th 2009 4:49AM Well, at 187 comments, people have probably already talked about what I am about to but here goes anyway:
1) Varian is the figurehead of the Alliance for many reasons, not the least of which because none of the other leaders wanted the job. But from a strictly statistical point of view, Stormwind/humans ARE the dominant force within the Alliance. The Draenei are basically refugees; the majority of what's left of their race is in Outland with no intention of leaving, and the ones on Azeroth are basically a congregation of crash victims. Along with that, most of the other Alliance races (especially humans) consider the Draenei to be freaky aliens; go hang around in the commander chamber of Valiance Keep sometime to see how xenophobic the humans act to the draenei delegation there.
Likewise, the Night Elves are a group of refugees too. Not only is their race a fraction of what it was pre-Sundering, but a good majority of their population was wiped out during the Third War and its aftermath (Ilidan's rampage, the resurgance of the Qiraji, the fighting in Ashenvale, etc). So they don't really have the numbers to call the shots for the Alliance as a whole. The Gnomes, as was pointed out, were already refugees from their home and have to rely on Ironforge and dwarves are pretty strong, except their military might is already divided between guarding their outposts across Khaz Modan and the rest conscripted into the Explorer's League and the Alliance; they're stretched pretty thin.
Meanwhile, Stormwind has very little real territory to defend; early human questing reveals that the outlying territories (Darkshire, Westfall etc) rely heavily on local militias. And the Stormwind population is comprised not just of the original Stormwind families but also the remnants of Lordaeron, Stromgarde, Southshore and probably even some Alterac citizens. They also control the only working port in the eastern hemisphere (two if you count Menethil Harbor as a human port in dwarf lands; Booty Bay doesn't count as it's a pirate port). So all that considered, Stormwind wear the pants in the Alliance and like it or not, Varian is its king and the people will follow his commands out of fear, duty, or out of respect to Llane and Bolvar.
2) A major reason the Alliance goes along with Varian's hatred of the Horde is because EVERY race in the Alliance has a history of violence at the hands of some faction within the new Horde. The draenei were butchered by orcs and driven from Outland by blood elves; the night elves saw their beloved demigod killed by orcs, who continue to hack and slash their sacred home; the gnomes lost countless pilots during the Second War and the dwarves saw the entirety of Khaz Modan invaded and dominated by the Horde, also in the Second War. And let's not forget the Forsaken, which was a breakaway faction of the Scourge that killed thousands of Alliance citizens and continues to attempt to extinguish the living at every turn.
3) The problem with Thrall is that he's a naieve idealist; he built his entire faction around a purpose that not everyone within it shares. The jungle trolls rely on the orcs for protection, the tauren are blood brothers to the orcs after Thrall saved their race from extinction, but the Forsaken and blood elves work for the Horde simply due to limited options. Thrall took them in because of what they brought to the table and their promises of redemption, but it was really a devils bargain and I think only now is Thrall starting to realize the cost of the pacts he made. And Garrosh sees the dissention, sees the conflicts the Forsaken and blood elves and orcs within the new Horde that wish to return to the old ways have with the Alliance, and he's trying to use these elements to create a powerbase to overthrow Thrall or, at the very least, his idealism; he's taking all that hatred of the Alliance and is harnessing it to consolidate his own power within the Horde.
Final thought: It's entirely possible (and frankly, it's the way I think the writers at Blizzard are moving this story) that Varian and Garrosh are probably under the influence of Yogg-Saron, Arthas, or both. By taking two up-and-coming leaders that are massively popular within their factions and twisting them against each other, the bad guys of "Wrath" are trying to divide their enemies from within so they'll be too weak to stand up to the real threats when they make their ultimate move(s).
An opportunity to change Retribution {WoW}
Apr 28th 2009 7:49PM Haven't we been here many, many times before though?
Before and during 1.9, they asked our suggestions - I think the thread was called "By Uther's Hammer" or something. Pages and pages of feedback, largely ignored.
When Burning Crusade came out, we got a strike(!). It was quickly nerfed and took about a year to be reversed. Again they asked for feedback, again it was largely ignored; we had to SHOUT to get something as basic to every DPS as threat reduction. Everything else was postponed until Wrath.
When Wrath was in Beta, we made MORE pages of suggestions, and the original version of Art of War was linked to Crusader Strike (if I recall). Also many people suggested ways to make Crusader Strike and Divine Storm more interesting, than just wattered down versions of Warrior abilities. Again, largely ignored. And people have been saying Blessing of Kings should have been baseline for YEARS, it finally took them until patch 3.1 to do it.
When GC and his team started beating our burst damage with the nerfbat like a Vegas bookie, while still trying to maintain our PvE damage for Ulduar, we made MORE SUGGESTIONS to boost average damage instead of burst. It was avoided and we were given everywhere-Exorcism, a burst damage spell. Which was quickly nerfed. Oh, and when they nerfed our burst damage and mobility, we said we needed some better PvP controls to compensate and stay competitive - still ignored to this day.
So, forgive me for not jumping on Blizzard's "We Need Your Feedback!" bandwagon for the umptienth-million time.
Varian Wrynn is Right, Part III {WoW}
Apr 26th 2009 6:40PM Great article, it really highlights Varian's story and point of view.
Ultimately, I see the Icecrown patch and end of Wrath involving one or more of the following:
- Thrall and/or Jaina will die, becoming martyrs for their cause.
- Varian and/or Garrosh will die.
- Saurfang will become the new Warchief (and Chuck Norris-style jokes notwithstanding, Blizzard will have to pump out some books/novels to give him more depth ASAP).
- Sylvanas will be revealed to be behind the RAS after all and/or will become the new leader of the Scourge (assuming the Lich King dies/posesses her).
I just get the feeling that one or more of those things will happen.
The state of the Horde and the Alliance {WoW}
Apr 26th 2009 4:18PM We have to remember that the Lich King is the fusion of two people; a human prince of Lordaeron and an orc shaman that led the very first incarnation of the Horde. So the Lich King has extensive knowledge about both factions and is no doubt using that to turn both sides against each other.
After all, the Scourge has made enemies with EVERYONE - the Legion, the Illidari, Mal'Ganis, the entire Blood Elf/High elf race, the Argent & Scarlet Crusades, the Ebon Blade defectors, the Kirin Tor, every dragonflight that had their bones stolen to make frost wyrms, and the Alliance and Horde and their sub-factions, most notable the survivors of Lordaeron and the Forsaken. If you had all of those armies coming after you, your ONLY chance would to be to get them to fight each other and getting the Alliance and Horde to go to war is the biggest way to accomplish that.
Of course, Yogg-Saron could be behind it all too, as Ulduar shows that even the servants of the Titans are vulnerable to corruption.

The Light and How to Swing It: Uncle {WoW}
Nov 1st 2008 6:19PM Just give it up, man. It's obvious they're just treating the whole game (Beta, PTR, Live, it doesn't matter) like it's a Beta test, and they're using hotfixes because they wasted their time and Wrath is due.
Just come back after Thanksgiving and maybe, MAYBE, they'll have their heads out of their cracks and things will be back to normal.
Insider Trader: Armorsmiths vs. weaponsmiths part two {WoW}
Oct 3rd 2008 7:48PM "None of the above weapons are ideal for a protection paladin."
This is untrue as of patch 3.0.2. The way the Protection 51 point talent, Hammer of the Righteous, is shaping up, higher weapon damage will make the talent scale better and thus, add more damage which translates into more threat.

Aug 31st 2008 6:28PM You have alot more faith in them than the rest of us do, Zach. I really want to believe that you are right and a) they'll even get to our "2nd pass" before 3.0 launches and b) that they'll fix Ret mana issue and tone down the damage in the right areas and not in the wrong ones.
I really don't want this to turn into the BC situation all over again.

EL PASO, TX — UTEP officials say beer sales helped the university make money during their homecoming game last Saturday. The university reports that it made more than $28,500 in beer sales. About 23,000 fans showed up to the game. The university says at this point they will continue selling beer at football games but they have not yet decided whether beer will be available at other sporting events.

Hi Ladies,
I was recently requested to make a birthday for a little girl. When I met up with the parents both of which I attended high school with. They explained they wanted 2 flavors, no filling just plain.
We all sat down, talked and was told they would like the cake to resemble Minnie Mouse using dark pink. Their exact words were "Do whatever you think looks best".
They sampled some flavors and we agreed I would be making their cake.
Soooooooooo today was the big day.
Long story short she came and picked it up. I walked to her car, placed it. Explained dowels inside of cake, etc.
She said "Thank you" and really nothing more.
I feel as if I did something wrong or it wasn't to her liking. I sent her a text because I know she is with family and busy but I sense she hated it.
Would you kindly give your opinions?
Did I do something wrong?!

Can anyone suggest a few varieties that are least suceptible to BER? Thanks. Ed. |

- Posted by carolyn137 z4/5 NY (My Page) on Thu, Jan 31, 13 at 18:49
Ed, I and others answered you elsewhere where you asked the same question, so let's see what some here have to say about it. Carolyn, who is also a 5a/b in NYS |
Least susceptible to BER - cherry varieties, any of them. Most prone to BER - roma/paste types and heart. This assumes that you already understand the causes of BER and that BER is primarily growing conditions related, NOT variety related. So technically one can grow any variety or type without any BER issues and many do so. Dave |
Yes, thanks. I do understand that BER is due to growing conditions. My problem is that I'm trying to grow large plants in smallish containers, which leads to poor consistancy in available water. I need to either use larger containers or grow smaller plants. Something has to give, because I was using my larger containers to grow other things. |
- Posted by Donna.in.Sask 2b (My Page) on Sun, Feb 3, 13 at 12:37
I grow Big Beef every year. Two years ago, my Big Beef tomatoes had a lot of BER but last year there wasn't one tomato that had it. I found my tomatoes growing in-ground were a lot more productive than the ones in pots. |
Larger containers is the solution. Even smaller determinate varieties can develop BER when grown in small containers. Shoot, even cherry types can. It simply isn't possible to maintain consistent soil levels of moisture and nutrients. Using a drip set-up on auto timers helps but takes a great deal of ultra-fine tuning and adjustment. Dave |
- Posted by miesenbacher 7 (My Page) on Tue, Feb 5, 13 at 11:25
I think a better topic would be "What can you do to prevent BER". Ami |

Yusmeiro Petit filled in for him and led the team to a 6-0 shutout over San Diego.Giants manager Bruce Bochy said that Petit, who has a 3.31 ERA in 73 total innings during his two years with the Giants, will fill in for Cain again on Monday should the finger not be completely healed.

Rejected Wii Game Concepts [Mildly NSFW]
October 21st, 2006
With all the ridiculous looking gameplay videos we've seen coming out for the new Nintendo Wii, I thought you might find this amusing:
I can't decide whether I like the tea time or the tattoo artist game better. The scary thing is that many of these game concepts seem like they might fly in Japan.

An Excerpt from Thomas DiLorenzo's Essay - 4,000 Years of Price Control
Submitted by dwalters on Thu, 01/03/2013 - 21:14I found this gem while reading about the Edict of Maximum Prices that Diocletian imposed on the Roman Empire. I hope the fellows at the Ludwig Von Mises Institute don't mind me sharing it here.
From Mises.org - Four Thousand Years of Price Control by Thomas J. DiLorenzo - professor of economics at Loyola University in Maryland
Accusations of "price gouging" — i.e. allowing market forces to set prices — abound, as do calls for price controls. They aren't always called "price controls," but some slick euphemism such as "anti-price-gouging legislation." It's the same thing.
The case against price controls is not merely an academic exercise, restricted to economics textbooks. There is a four-thousand-year historical record of economic catastrophe after catastrophe caused by price controls. This record is partly documented in an excellent book entitled Forty Centuries of Wage and Price Controls by Robert Schuettinger and Eamon Butler, first published in 1979.
The authors begin by quoting Jean-Philippe Levy, author of The Economic Life of the Ancient World,as noting that in Egypt during the Third Century B.C. "there was a real omnipresence of the state" in regulating grain production and distribution. "[A]ll prices were fixed by fiat at all levels." This "control took on frightening proportions. There was a whole army of inspectors."
Egyptian farmers became so infuriated with the price control inspectors that many of them simply left their farms. By the end of the century the "Egyptian economy collapsed as did her political stability."
In Babylon some 4,000 years ago the Code of Hammurabi was a maze of price control regulations. "If a man hire a field-labourer, he shall give him eight gur of corn per annum"; "If a man hire a herdsman, he shall give him six gur of corn per annum"; "If a man hire a sixty-ton boat, he shall give a sixth part of a shekel of silver per diem for her hire." And on and on and on. Such laws "smothered economic progress in the empire for many centuries," as the historical record describes. Once these laws were laid down "there was a remarkable change in the fortunes of the people."
Ancient Greece also imposed price controls on grain and established "an army of grain inspectors appointed for the purpose of setting the price of grain at a level the Athenian government thought to be just." Greek price controls inevitably led to grain shortages, but ancient entrepreneurs saved thousands from starvation by evading these unjust laws. Despite the imposition of the death penalty for evading Greek price control laws, the laws "were almost impossible to enforce." The shortages created by the price control laws created black market profit opportunities, to the great benefit of the public.
In 284 A.D. the Roman emperor Diocletian created inflation by placing too much money in circulation, and then "fixed the maximum prices at which beef, grain, eggs, clothing and other articles could be sold, and prescribed the penalty of death for anyone who disposed of his wares at a higher figure." The results, as Schuettinger and Butler explain, quoting an ancient historian, were that "the people brought provisions no more to markets, since they could not get a reasonable price for them and this increased the dearth so much, that at last after many had died by it, the law itself was set aside."
Moving closer to modern times, George Washington's revolutionary army nearly starved to death in the field thanks to price controls on food that were imposed by Pennsylvania and other colonial governments. Pennsylvania specifically imposed price controls on "those commodities needed for use by the army," creating disastrous shortages of everything needed by the army. The Continental Congress wisely adopted an anti-price-control resolution on June 4, 1778 that read: "Whereas it hath been found by experience that limitations upon the prices of commodities are not only ineffectual for the purpose proposed, but likewise productive of very evil consequences--resolved, that it be recommended to the several states to repeal or suspend all laws limiting, regulating or restraining the Price of any Article." And, write Schuettinger and Butler, "By the fall of 1778 the army was fairly well provided for as a direct result of this change in policy."
French politicians repeated the same mistakes after their revolution, putting into place the "Law of the Maximum" in 1793, which first imposed price controls on grain, and then on a long list of other items. Predictably, "in some [French] towns, the people were so badly fed that they were collapsing in the streets from lack of nourishment." A delegation from various provinces wrote to the government in Paris that before the new price control law, "our markets were supplied, but as soon as we fixed the price of wheat and rye we saw no more of those grains. The other kinds not subject to the maximum were the only ones brought in." The French government was forced to abolish its evil price control law after it had literally killed thousands. When Robespierre was being carried through the streets of Paris on the way to his execution the crowds shouted, "There goes the dirty Maximum!" If only this were a lesson learned by contemporary politicians.
At the end of World War II American central planners were even more totalitarian when it came to economic policy than were the former Nazis. During the post-war occupation of Germany, American "planners" rather liked the Nazi economic controls, including price controls, that were in fact preventing economic recovery. The notorious Nazi Hermann Goering even lectured the American war correspondent Henry Taylor about it! As recounted by Schuettinger and Butler, Goering said:
Your America is doing many things in the economic field which we found out caused us so much trouble. You are trying to control peoples' wages and prices — peoples' work. If you do that you must control peoples' lives. And no country can do that part way. I tried and it failed. Nor can any country do it all the way either. I tried that too and it failed. You are no better planners than we. I should think your economists would read what happened here.
Price controls were finally ended in Germany by Economic Minister Ludwig Erhard in 1948, on a Sunday, when the American occupation authorities would be out of their offices and unable to stop him. This spawned the "German economic miracle."
Price controls were the cause of the "energy crisis" of the 1970s and of the California energy crisis of the 1990s (only the wholesale price of electricity was deregulated there; controls were placed on retail prices). For more than four thousand years, dictators, despots, and politicians of all stripes have viewed price controls as the ultimate "something for nothing" promise to the public.
With the wave of a hand, or the flash of a legislative pen, they promise to make everything cheaper. And for more than four thousand years the results have been exactly the same: shortages, sometimes of catastrophic consequence; deterioration of product quality; the proliferation of black markets on which prices are actually higher and bribery is rampant; destruction of a nation's productive capacity in the industries where prices are controlled; gross distortions of markets; the creation of oppressive and tyrannical price control bureaucracies; and a dangerous concentration of political power in the hands of the price controllers.

International Edition
Thanks to its large reserves of oil, the small Gulf state of Kuwait has transformed over the decades from a humble pearl-farming backwater into one of the world's richest countries per capita.
But too much of a good thing, as many of Kuwait's 2.6 million inhabitants are discovering, can be problematic.
In recent years, Kuwaiti waistlines have swollen to make them among the most obese people on the planet. Nearly 70% of Kuwaiti males over 15 are overweight or obese, according to the World Health Organization. For women, the figures are even worse - slightly over 80%.
Read the full story - Fast-food-loving Kuwaitis fight fat with stomach stapling
I always find the differences in menu items amongst the same fast food "restaurant" through different regions and countries interesting.
For example, you will only find the McKinley Mac in Alaskan McDonald's and I can't remember what was different about the McDizzle's in South Korea. I can't find a Spicy McChicken sandwich around here to save my life, though fortunately Burger King carries a version of one. Spicy anything in the MidWest is a treasure hunt. This area of the country has the most bland tastebuds on the planet.
Imports like myself have a tough time finding places we like to eat that aren't just burgers and fries.

This is the best body wash ever! I have really but i mean really sensitive skin and the fragance in this doesnt irritate me at all. Its exfoliating just enough for everyday use and a little bit goes a long way. The price is good and you dont need that much.

I purchased this after reading one of those "10 Best Body Washes" articles in some women's magazine. It stuck with me, because it was Aveeno and it was a fairly reasonably priced product.
I am very pleased with the body wash, it exfoliates well without leaving you feeling as you've scrubbed yourself with a brillo pad. You can definitely feel that it is exfoliating, but in a gentle manner, not in an aggressive way. The Aveeno Website has this description: This lightly-fragranced body wash with pomegranate and nourishing oils works with the steam in your shower to instantly boost your senses. Natural exfoliants, rice beads and walnut shells help remove dull skin, so after you shower your skin feels soft and smooth. It has definitely helped with my rough elbows and I even use it on my feet. Your skin will absorb your moisturizers much better and you will need less. An excellent product.
It smells wonderful and is very gentle on the skin. I like the flip top on it, it doesn't dispense too much of the product at once. It's very easy to find in your local Target, Wal-Mart, CVS, Rite Aid, etc. Approx. $6-8 a bottle, depending on where you purchase it.

I got this as a gift and it just wasn't really for me. It is very thick and the cap became clogged.
It has a nice mild scent and seems like a very gentle body wash. I think it would be great for someone with dry sensitive skin but it just didn't give me that nice clean and refreshed feeling that I prefer.

The scent is very mild. This has been the best softener for my skin of all of the drugstore brands I have tried over the years. Better than other Aveeno products in the same category. Lotions and other moisturizers tend to work better on my skin when I shower with this. You will feel a noticeable difference in the softness of your skin in 2 washes minimum.

I'm usually always trying out different products once something runs out but I have for once stuck to this one for the past year. I discovered this body wash a year ago & I just love it. The smell is amazing, the texture is grainy in a good way. It exfoliates but does not feel harsh at all. This is a must have !

I've tried so many body washes, and have always had to settle for clean skin that is dry and tight, or moisturized skin that feels only kind of clean.. I've never found anything 'just right'. My daughter's friend stayed over and left this body wash in the shower. I shouldn't have tried it without asking, but I am SOOOO glad I did! My skin came very clean and smooth as a baby's bottom! That's one heck of a feat, considering that it's been a very long time since I've been a baby! I confessed to my daughter's friend, and thanked her profusely! You've gotta try this!

This is one of the best products i have ever used. It removes all the dead particles from your skin and leaves it extremely soft and touchable for days. The scent is not over powering but is beautifully mild and remains for hours. Some people may complain about its thickness but i love it and the rice and walnut it contains truly does do a great job. This product does what it says it would do without making my sensitive skin feel itchy after. I recommend it to everyone.

The Bonus: Three takeaways after Kansas' victory over West Virginia
No. 8 Kansas handled West Virginia at Allen Fieldhouse on Saturday. Here are three day-after thoughts on the victory — and KU's path moving forward:
1. Defensive progress?
Kansas coach Bill Self was pleased with his team's defensive performance, and the advanced numbers illustrate a team that has guarded better in its last two games. KU held a team to fewer than one point per possession for the second straight game, holding the Mountaineers to 0.97 points per possession. Andrew Wiggins locked down West Virginia's Eron Harris on the perimeter, holding him without a field goal in the second half. And Self also praised freshman Frank Mason's effort in containing leading scorer Juwan Staten.
"For the second game in a row," Self said, "we were better."
At the risk of putting too much emphasis on a two-game sample, let's go back to where KU ranks nationally in defensive efficiency. A week ago, KU was ranked 39th in the category, according to KenPom.com. We noted that no team in the last decade had won the NCAA title with a defense ranked that low. Seven days later, though, KU has climbed back to No. 22 in defensive efficiency. It's a reminder that these numbers can fluctuate a lot in a matter of games, but it's also positive trend for KU's prospects in March.
Once again, here's how the last 10 champions ranked in defensive efficiency.
2013: Louisville, 3rd
2012: Kentucky, 8th
2011: UConn, 13th
2010: Duke, 8th
2009: North Carolina, 21st
2008: Kansas, 1st
2007: Florida, 17th
2006: Florida, 6th
2005: North Carolina, 12th
2004: UConn, 5th
2. The highlight of the day:
Frank Mason pulled off a rather memorable move in transition against West Virginia's Gary Browne. It was pretty solid, a little right-to-left crossover on the fast break, but it was still a little jarring to see Browne totally caught off balance — like a batter totally fooled on a decent curveball.
"It was a nice move," Mason said, rather matter-of-factly.

Tuesday, June 14
Dodger Stadium
Attendance: 39,233
Los Angeles, CA (Sports Network) - Joey Votto's eighth-inning RBI single and Johnny Cueto's masterful performance lifted the Cincinnati Reds to a 3-2 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers in the second of a three-game set.
With one down and runners on the corners, Votto ripped a Scott Elbert offering into right-center to score Miguel Cairo and break a 1-1 tie.
Over seven innings, Cueto (4-2) allowed just one unearned run on five hits and a walk while striking out five.
"[Cueto] was dealing," said Reds manager Dusty Baker. "He was electric. He definitely deserved to win tonight."
Drew Stubbs added an RBI single in the ninth, which proved essential, as the Dodgers cut their deficit to one in the home half on a James Loney RBI single.
Francisco Cordero settled down, however, to record his 14th save of the season.
Blake Hawksworth (1-2) suffered the loss, charged with Votto's go-ahead hit.
Los Angeles wasted a gem from Clayton Kershaw, who went seven innings, allowing one run on four hits and two walks, while striking out four.
"[Kershaw] was good," said Dodgers manager Don Mattingly. "He was solid. He really pitched well. [Cueto] had great stuff. We just weren't able to crack through him."
The Reds have taken the first two games of this series and have won six of their last nine, while the Dodgers have dropped five of seven.
Dee Gordon began the home first with a single and advanced to second on a Jamey Carroll walk. Andre Ethier followed with a grounder to short and, after getting the force at second, Phillips threw the ball wide of Votto, allowing Gordon to score.
Scott Rolen's two-out double in the fourth scored Stubbs, evening the game at one apiece.
Kershaw was lifted in favor of Hawksworth to start the eighth and Cairo showed his appreciation with a leadoff single. A Stubbs bunt moved Cairo to second before Phillips' single put runners on the corners. Elbert then relieved Hawksworth, only to surrender the decisive single to Votto.
Logan Ondrusek threw a scoreless eighth for the Reds and Ramon Hernandez and pinch-hitter Fred Lewis reached on a walk and a single, respectively, in the top of the ninth before Stubbs slapped a ball between first and second, scoring pinch-runner Mike Leake.
Matt Kemp drew a one-out walk in the home half and promptly stole second, then scored on Loney's single to left. Pinch-runner Trent Oeltjen stole second on pinch-hitter Casey Blake's strikeout before Rod Barajas popped out to end the game.

I made a Caitlyn doll!
I haven't been playing for very long, and I'm sure there are quite a few great champions I haven't gotten to play yet, but right now I can't imagine that I'll like any of them more than I love Caitlyn.
Right after I started playing, my husband, who's the one who got me into the game, showed me some videos, including a few recent Summoner Showcases. He turned to me and said, "You should make something." I answered, "Yes, I should make something!" Inspiration didn't strike me immediately, I passed over my first dozen ideas or so, but once I got it into my head to make a doll, I knew this was the right one. So here she is: my own personal Caitlyn. She took me about a week, and I was actually finishing the last few details while watching the Dreamhack games--at one point, I actually stabbed myself in the thumb with my needle when things got exciting and Phreak started shouting, he startled me! |
I like it.
Make Gragas. |
D'aww that's adorable. Nice work.
+1 for awesome crafting skills
very cute! great job, though i definitely would like to see her exercising her right to bear arms.
take more pictures!
OMG! i want it!!! Make a MF one too! XD
Need Safari or Sheriff Caitlyn doll.
I am not going to talk about fuzzy cuffs and headshots with it. |

I know I'm not speaking for anyone, but I know you guys must feel slightly bad knowing you truley worked hard on the new mode (I hope), but people still complain. I can't wait for Dominion, should be fun. I'll wait untill it comes out to judge though. XD
Senior Member
Yeah. I think the fact that Riot can continue to make such awesome features for such a messed up community shows their character, props to them
Calys Teneb
Ditto. I genuinely felt bad for them being so excited about this when this community started to ***** like they always do.
Yeah :/
Rachael Passive
I understand both sides, I'm excited for the new mode but at the same time, I feel they over hyped the announcement and made it seem like there was content coming out this week.
Oh I love the fact that they officially announced a new game mode and a new map. I am looking forward to dominion, it looks like it will be tons of fun. My gripe is that they create all this hype for this week about something coming and it's going to be great and blah blah blah. They get everyone super excited.... then.... their whole hype is for.... an announcement.... not anything real or substantial being added this week, but an announcement. I mean FFS... I have been excited all week hoping that finally magma chamber was coming, then all I get is an announcement. No, I'm not a happy camper. Thanks for nothing Riot. WTB Magma Chamber FFS. Is 2 years with 2 maps not enough?
Admiral Knox
I trust they're smart enough to realize that this is the inflated overreaction we always get, and that the true feedback will come when it's actually out.

text: First Bishop of Vincennes (present see, Indianapolis), born Rennes, France, 1779; died Vincennes, Indiana, 1839. After studying medicine from 1796-1803, he entered the Seminary of Saint Sulpice and was ordained, 1808. In 1810 he sailed with Bishop-elect Flaget, of Bardstown, for America. He taught philosophy two years at Saint Mary's Seminary, Baltimore, removing in 1812 to Saint Mary's, Emmitsburg. For several years he directed Mother Elizabeth Seton, foundress of the Sisters of Charity in the United States. He was consecrated Bishop of Vincennes in 1834, his diocese comprising Indiana and northern Illinois. In 1836, with funds collected in Europe, he established a seminary in which he taught, an orphan asylum, and a free school. At his death there were 23 churches in his diocese.New Catholic Dictionary

On Tuesday, 15th June, I accompanied Mr. M. Timbs and Mr. T. Alder2 on a visit to C.N.E.N.3 for discussions with Ing. Pantenetti4 and members of his staff.
- The discussions were mainly on technical matters although Mr. Timbs did give the Italians an idea of the amount and quality of known uranium reserves in Australia. One other aspect of the meeting was the hesitancy of the Italians to give exact production costs per unit for the production of electricity in Italy.
- This hesitancy was also apparent on the following day when Mr. Alder and Dr. Miles5 met Prof. Angelini6 at E.N.E.L.,7 although after some pressing Professor Angelini gave an approximate cost per unit which was almost three times as great as the cost of electricity produced in Australia (Australia's electricity average cost 3.5 US mils per kilowatt hour-Italy's approximately 9 US mils per kilowatt hour). Because Italy relies on imported oil to fuel almost half its electricity production and because the effects of the recent oil price rise were still unclear, the Italians said they were unable to give exact costs per unit.
- Alder and Miles (Timbs was not present) discussed with Prof. Angelini the possibilities and advantages of setting up a plant in Australia for nuclear enrichment. The Australian points were as follows:
- The cost per unit of production of electricity in Europe was very high since Europe relied greatly on imported oil to fuel its power stations. The European countries, therefore, must look to enriched uranium nuclear power stations which could produce cheaper electricity.
- However, the enrichment of uranium was a process requiring vast quantities of electricity and therefore Europe would lose all the cost advantages in having its own uranium enrichment plant. It was therefore in Europe's interest to import enriched uranium from countries which had cheaper electricity and could carry out the enrichment process more cheaply than it could be done in Europe.
- Australia, Canada and the USA were still in this position. Australia was an ideal site for a uranium enrichment industry because
- it could produce electricity cheaply as a result of its big, good quality coal resources,
- it had vast quantities of uranium, and
- since Canada and the USA could be expected to share nuclear technology and act more or less together in setting up uranium enrichment plants, it would be in Europe's interests to have another independent source of enriched uranium.
- However, while Australia had both uranium and cheap electricity, it lacked the technology and finance to set up enrichment plants and it would be necessary for it to be associated with European, and possibly Japanese, concerns if it wished to do so. Britain and France had, according to Mr Alder, already expressed some interest in this possibility
- Apparently, Alder and Miles discussed the same subject in Tokyo but, according to Alder, the Japanese Atomic Energy Commission released the information to the Japanese press, thus prompting the Australian Minister for National Development to issue press statements on the subject. (Canberra cable No. 1494.)8
- Prof. Angelini said that, naturally, Italy would also be interested in exploring the possibilities of this proposal (point iv). He mentioned, however, that Italy was not only looking to nuclear power for the future but was currently making preliminary studies on the feasibility of building power stations which could be fuelled either by coal or oil. They would need to import steaming coal (not coking coal) and there could be opportunities for Australian producers to export coal to Italy on long-term contracts.

CSS div problems with form action code
I'm having issues with using "Buy Now" Paypal buttons in Dreamweaver for my website. I have 3 that I just put up on a website. http://www.gravitybridgerecords.com It looks OK online right now, but when I view the form code into Dreamweaver, it looks like my div tags get confused. Everything seems to shift and pile up on one another vertically. It completely screws up my div tags.
Here is a screen shot of what happens when I put the following Paypal code into my site.
Here is the form code I am placing in my site:Code:<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"> <input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick"> <input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="8717294"> <input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_buynow_SM.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!"> <img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1">
And here is the shot after placing that form action code:
As you can see, when the form action code is placed on my site, my content gets all messed up. My top horizontal nav bar gets stretched and my content piles up in a vertical line. It's as if my div tag disappears or something. Perhaps my div tags are not right... my CSS can be found at: http://www.gravitybridgerecords.com/gravity.css
Any help would be greatly appreciated! I have been trying to figure this out for over a week now. Thank you so much... I am so blessed to have found this forum.Last edited by WebLizzard; 10-24-2009 at 06:24 PM.

iStock/Thinkstock(NEW YORK) — Move over wine. Beer might have important health benefits as well.
In a study conducted by the American Chemical Society, Jianguo Fang and his fellow researchers say that xanthohumol or Xn, an ingredient in hops, can prevent or slow down the onset of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.
These conditions are brought on by oxidative damage to neuronal cells in the brain.
Xn works as an antioxidant that also offers protection to the heart and fights cancer.
But don't start guzzling down beer after beer just yet. The researchers first have to learn what concentration of Xn is beneficial and how to deliver this compound to patients.

iStock/Thinkstock(BUFFALO, N.Y.) — Remember Hooked on Phonics? Ads for this commercial system of reading education through phonetics were everywhere during the early 1990s until the company ran into trouble with the FTC, leading it to file for bankruptcy.
However, the basic concept of phonics to help kids read though sounding out words is making a comeback.
A University of Buffalo study says that phonics is more effective in teaching youngsters to read faster than the commonly taught technique of visually memorizing word patterns.
UB assistant professor of psychology Chris McNorgan contends that phonological information enables children to better identify individual words.
Furthermore, teaching them to be more sensitive to auditory information is key to improving reading performance, according to McNorgan.

iStock/Thinkstock(NEW YORK) — Have Australian researchers come up with a cure for peanut allergies?
It's possible that they may have, based on the results of an experiment in which 60 youngsters with these allergies were either given a placebo or the probiotic lactobacillus rhamnosus combined with peanut protein.
The trial conducted by the Murdoch Children's Research Institute lasted 18 months and by the end, eighty percent of children who took the probiotic became tolerant to peanuts. In contrast, only four percent in the control group could consume peanuts without an allergic reaction.
Lead researcher Mimi Tang remarked, "These findings provide the first vital step towards developing a cure for peanut allergy and possibly other food allergies."
Tang, however, cautioned that more research needs to be done to determine if the treatment with the probiotic could produce long-term relief for those with peanut allergies.

Jan. 31 (Bloomberg) -- Japan's industrial production rose more than forecast in December as automakers rebounded from flooding in Thailand that disrupted their supply chains.
Sustained gains may be more challenging as an unresolved Greek debt restructuring sends investors into the yen as a haven, risking damage to Japan's exporters. Production figures from neighbor South Korea today underscored the damage from Europe's crisis, with output falling more than predicted.
"There is zero chance exports are going to rise in the first half of 2012 because of the global slowdown, so Japan's economy will continue to stagnate," said Yoshimasa Maruyama, chief economist at Itochu Corp. in Tokyo by telephone. "December figures were influenced by the one-time recovery of production by carmakers after the Thai floods."
Japan's factory output rose 4 percent from November, when production slid because of disruptions from Thailand's worst flooding in seven decades, trade ministry figures showed in Tokyo today. The median estimate of 30 economists surveyed by Bloomberg News was for a 3 percent increase. Separate data showed the nation's jobless rate rose to 4.6 percent in December from 4.5 percent the previous month.
South Korea's production slid 0.9 percent from November, a third straight decline, a deeper drop than all 11 economists surveyed by Bloomberg had anticipated.
Yen Appreciation
A three-day rally in the yen has brought it less than 2 percent from its postwar high of 75.35 against the dollar, with the currency at 76.40 as of 9:33 a.m. in Tokyo.
Finance Minister Jun Azumi told reporters today that "we are ready to act decisively against excessive and speculative currency moves if needed." Officials last year intervened with record sales of yen to counter exchange-rate appreciation.
Industrial output for October-to-December declined 0.4 percent, underscoring concern the economy might have shrunk for the third time in four quarters. For the full year, production fell 3.5 percent, hurt by the record March 11 earthquake and tsunami, power disruptions after the accident at the Fukushima Dai-Ichi plant and the Thai flooding as well as Europe's crisis.
Euro leaders left a Brussels summit late yesterday with no accord over how to plug Greece's widening budget hole and German Chancellor Angela Merkel voicing frustration with the Athens government's failure to carry out an economic makeover.
Europe Data
Data in Europe today may show that Germany's economy has withstood the crisis better than most, with retail sales advancing 0.8 percent in December from the previous month and unemployment falling by 10,000, according to the median projections in Bloomberg surveys of economists. France may report its consumer spending increased 0.2 percent. In the U.S., a private report may show house prices dropped in November.
In a sign the rebound in Japanese output hasn't yet improved conditions in the job market, payrolls fell by 30,000 in December, the first drop since August, and the number of unemployed rose for a third month, according to today's report.
Automakers said they expect demand to recover this year. Toyota Motor Corp., the world's largest seller of gasoline- electric autos, revised sales up last week by 100,000 vehicles from December, on demand for hybrids buoyed by government tax breaks on fuel-efficient cars. Honda Motor Co. President Takanobu Ito last week forecast the highest business results for Japan's third-largest carmaker in at least five years, led by North American sales.
"It will be the year of the complete rebound," Ito said in an interview.
Production in the transport equipment industry increased 12.3 percent in December, the largest gain since June, according to the trade ministry. Manufacturers plan to raise production 2.5 percent this month, and boost it 1.2 percent in February, a government survey of companies in the report showed.
"Industrial production will be on the recovery path for the coming months," said Hiromichi Shirakawa, chief Japan economist at Credit Suisse Group AG in Tokyo. "Global industrial activities are picking up, but Japanese companies are not necessarily benefiting from that because of the yen's strength."
