The Arizona Legislature approved a state budget Monday night that set spending at $9.2 billion for the coming budget year after negotiating a compromise on several issues that had hung up a final deal for weeks.
A local charter-school organization will open its next charter school emphasizing STEM topics in Mesa's Eastmark development.
Expect More Arizona, a statewide education advocacy organization dedicated to raising education expectations in Arizona announced four Excellence Tour Spotlight award winners during an event held on Tuesday, including Mesa's Great Hearts Academies. According to a release, "the Phoenix finalists for the Expect More Excellence Tour demonstrate and celebrate what Arizonans are doing today to elevate world-class education in the community."
The focus of the save-our-school drama "Won't Back Down" practically assures it will fail to join the ranks of great, or even good, education tales.
About 40 years ago, the once segregated Booker T. Washington Elementary School in Mesa was closed.
Arizona lawmakers have brought a number of education bills to the Legislature this year.
An Valley school district feeling hard the effects of declining enrollment several years ago appointed a committee to examine the situation and make recommendations to the school board about how to deal with it.
Val Vista Academy, a public tuition-free charter school scheduled to open August 2012 in Gilbert, has started construction at the southwest corner of Germann and Val Vista roads.
Education leaders are raising questions about how a proposed plan to give Arizona parents the power to shut down or change a failing school would work — or if it would even make a difference.
State senators voted Monday to let parents of students in low-rated schools force the governing board to shut it down, convert it to a charter school or replace the principal.
This year, BASIS Schools opened a campus in Chandler, the first for the East Valley.
The National Alliance for Public Charter Schools on Tuesday announced the release of the third annual rankings of state charter school laws across the country - and Arizona's law fell from 11th to 15th.
Gov. Jan Brewer will propose a major revamp of how the state funds schools, a move that could make more cash available for private and parochial schools.
A hurricane swept through Gilbert's Edu-Prize Charter School earlier this month just after a tornado touched down, but students weren't afraid. Instead they sat safely in a Discovery Dome in the school's science lab watching up close as the homes and towns were devastated by the powerful forces of nature.
Has American public education failed Latino families?
State officials are questioning an arrangement in which a private school in Glendale and a Mesa-based public charter-school operator have teamed up to help finance the private school with taxpayer dollars.
The entire point of the charterschool movement is to give parents and students additional choices beyond not-quite-one-size-fits-all district campuses and expensive, fewand-far-between private schools.
No matter how you feel about Arizona's charter school movement, it can be deemed at least somewhat successful, given the changes in the Mesa Unified School District being attributed to the competition the charters provide.
Monday's front-page story on the East Valley's "Ivy League Dreamers" is a welcome reminder that there is much right about today's younger generation. We can too easily lose sight of that amid the rest of the daily news — much of which isn't very reassuring.
In Arizona's choice-rich educational environment, about 10 percent of all public school students are now enrolled in the state's nearly 500 public charter schools. Yet the state constitution provides for no charter-school representation on the Arizona Board of Education.
Thanks to an excellent charter-school law, a private-school scholarship tax credit, and a renewed commitment by traditional public schools to excel, Arizona parents have many attractive educational options from which to choose.
If there is a clear lesson from the race for the Democratic presidential nomination to date, it is that it's unwise to predict a final winner until the process is finally done — but hold on.

The switched Davida 1-Light LED Wall Spotlight complements the Davida range of ceiling spotlight fittings, boasting stunning good looks and a fully adjustable head.

The Davida 1-Light LED Wall Spotlight has a useful independent switch, so you needn't control it from the wall. This light is stunningly designed with a polished chrome and matt white finish, which is easy on the eye yet subtle enough to blend into many types of environment. Versatility is provided in the form of an easily adjustable, rotating light head.
Without the obvious advantage of ceiling height, wall spotlights are often used to direct illumination onto low-lying features such as a desk, or table, or urn. They're also effective for simply lighting a floor, automatically enhancing ambience by creating areas of contrast with their focused intensity.
With its IP20 rating the Davida LED Wall Spotlight is best kept out of bathrooms or washrooms, since it offers no resistance to ingress of water. According to 2008 IEE wiring regulations you can install this light in 'outside zones' of a bathroom, but if humidity and steam are likely this is still inadvisable. Dry areas such as corridors, lounges, dining rooms, offices, and bedrooms are more suitable.
For a coordinated lighting scheme you may also be interested in the other lights within the Davida range. Every light in the range, including this wall light, are Safety Class 1 products that require connection to electrical earth during installation. They are unsuitable for use in non-earthed properties.
The Eglo Davida 1-Light LED Wall Spotlight comes complete with a 5W GU10 LED reflector lamp, which emits 270 lumens of 3000K warm white light and has an expected lifespan of 25,000 hours. This non-dimmable lamp is similar to halogen in colour temperature.
Being a naturally directional light source, LED spotlights are particularly energy-efficient, and spill very little light outside of any stated beam. They are also greatly suited to lighting artworks and any organic types of material, since they produce no IR heat or UV radiation.
The dimensions of the Davida 1-Light LED Wall Spotlight are:

Back Roads to Blue Skies
Planes and cars have long since gone their separate ways, but they were once two sides of the same industrial coin. Here's a rundown of many dalliances, both successful and otherwise, between automakers and airplanes. -- Robert Cumberford
Alfa built aircraft engines of its own design in the 1920s and 1930s. It produced Daimler-Benz V-12 engines under license during World War II.
Rolls-Royce Group, the second-largest builder of aircraft engines in the world, has been estranged from the car company since 1973 (including Bentley, which itself started as an airplane-engine builder during WWI). However, it retained rights to the Rolls-Royce name and logo until it sold them to BMW in 1998 -- a nasty surprise to Volkswagen, which had bought Rolls-Royce Motor Cars earlier that year.
Bavarian Motor Works started out as a manufacturer of aircraft engines and branched out into cars after WWI. BMW has maintained some involvement in jet engines, including a relationship with Rolls-Royce, which helped in the acquisition of the Rolls-Royce name and logo.
No Bugatti airplane ever flew, but sixteen-cylinder engines built by Ettore Bugatti for aircraft use are on display at the Smithsonian Institution and at the Air Force museum near Dayton, Ohio. Bugatti also worked on a speed-record plane. Its aerodynamic wooden frame currently resides in the Experimental Aircraft Association museum in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
Hopes for production of a Citroen helicopter were quashed when the company was acquired by Peugeot. A prototype was displayed at Retromobile a few years ago.
Among myriad aviation exploits, Fiat powered the fastest propeller-driven seaplane ever built, which hit 424 mph in 1933.
Ford mortified auto-industry insiders when it named Boeing engineer Alan Mulally CEO, but the automaker was itself a leading producer of airliners in the 1920s. The corrugated-aluminum skins on those Jazz Age aircraft seem to have made them immune to metal fatigue. Many are still flying today.

Group Logic ships ExtremeZ-IP 5.0
updated 10:00 am EST, Wed February 28, 2007
ExtremeZ-IP 5.0 ships
Group Logic today released ExtremeZ-IP 5.0, which it says is the only Windows-based server solution to properly support all releases of the Mac operating system (from Mac OS 9 to the upcoming Mac OS X 10.5). Featuring architecture enhancements, ExtremeZ-IP 5.0 increases Mac desktop to Windows server file sharing reliability and scalability, further simplifies IT support, and offers improved performance and caching for improved productivity. "Group Logic's ExtremeZ-IP 5.0 features increased scalability with support for more users than any other Mac file sharing solution in the marketplace while offering optimized performance, especially under load," the company said. "The solution's performance and caching enhancements allow processing more file sharing requests per hour, while using less computing time and resources."
ExtremeZ-IP 5.0 delivers support for Apple's desktop innovations by bringing them to within Windows server environments. ExtremeZ-IP 5.0 supports the innovative "reconnect" capabilities of the Apple File Protocol (AFP), which allows a Mac that loses server connectivity to seamlessly reestablish the connection without losing their work. The feature automatically authenticates the user, accesses all of the open files and protects the user against loss of data within those files.
In addition, ExtremeZ-IP also eliminates limitations of Mac file names on Windows servers and supports the Windows permission model and security features, ensuring that file permissions are not limited by platform.
"ExtremeZ-IP has a great reputation for seamlessly delivering compatibility without compromise, so we are excited to see the many enhancements in ExtremeZ-IP 5.0, especially the increased scalability and performance under load," said John Go, VP of Technology for PLM Group prepress division. "We know we can rely on Group Logic's Mac expertise to ensure that this latest version delivers the features we need to help our company increase productivity, improve our workflow and remain ahead of the competition."
ExtremeZ-IP 5.0 also now supports the Windows-based network and system monitoring tools to verify load, detect problems with file shares and print queues, and diagnose bottlenecks. This enables organizations to effectively diagnose and resolve issues with the product and their internal systems, simplifying management and maintenance while improving workflow.
It is available now from Group Logic; pricing was not available.

Let's try not to call people faggots, okay? The problem with haters is not that they hate ponies in particular, it's that they hate in general. By hating the haters, bronies become VERY hypocritical. Don't sink down to their level, don't hate the haters.

frienderman (03/17/2012) [-]
But one can respectfully stand up for one's beliefs. For instance, MLK Jr. was very respectful in his standing up for black people's rights, while the Black Panther was a bit less than respectful. Weird historical reference, but you get the point.

NO, i will not. with that out of the way, I think that everybody deserves a second chance, but not a fifth or sixth. i think that even though some bronies aren't completely following the whole "love and tolerance" thing, it's the haters that usually start by posting on pony posts. if they would just skip or something, we wouldn't have this problem at all!

My husband and I recently looked at a lot for sale in Central Ohio. It's a former horse pasture that was subdivided - the lot we're looking at is 4.3 acres. While we just bought a home recently, the layout of this land is so beautiful we're giving it some serious thought to building our dream home there. Anyway, here's the situation. Right now, the land is abandoned pasture - per the realtor the horses have been gone for several years. It's mostly overgrown pasture grass (I'm guessing K31 Tall Fescue) & some scattered weeds, tree saplings, etc. I'm also concerned about compacted soil from years of horse hooves and the damage they do. So, starting off, after the house is done, what's the best way to go about it? Should we just hire a local farmer to come in with his cultivator and just turn it all over as-is, or would we be better off to Roundup the entire thing (4 acres is a lot to do!) The whole thing won't be lawn - part of it I might just do some native groundcover, but my husband wants lawn at least in the front for "curb appeal" haha. How would you lawn warriors go about this? Also, if any of the little trees turn out to be worth saving, is there a rule of thumb on how far from the tree we need to keep any tillage equipment to not damage roots? |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by dchall_san_antonio 8 San Antonio (My Page) on Thu, Jul 11, 13 at 20:44
Livestock do not damage soil. Lack of livestock damages soil by stopping the nutrient cycle, allowing weeds to move in, and by not providing enough disturbance. Most tree huggers and even many ranchers do not understand that disturbance of the soil is a necessary requirement for continual renewal of the soil. It is required at least annually to keep a pasture in good condition for grazing. I would be much more concerned about the prolonged lack of animals than any possibility that a horse, or even a large herd of horses, might damage the soil. Livestock grazing and even stampeding is one of the best things you can do to plant seed. Mother Nature uses that as Her preferred method for replanting the prairies of the world. Farmers are learning the method, too. One rancher here in Texas borrowed a neighbor's 800 head of cattle to eat down an overgrown pasture of about 50 acres. If you know anything about cattle, it took about 24 hours before the land looked like the surface of the moon. Every plant was gone either eaten down or trampled down. He didn't do anything else and the grass started growing immediately. The next season started out with an abundance of fresh grass where once stood a mess of grass and browse. But anyway, if you do not have a ready supply of livestock located conveniently on the other side of one of your fences, then you will need some equipment to grade for your house and then regrade, after the builders leave, for your garden. The tool the graders will use is called a box blade and it sits on the back of a tractor. A good grader could grade 4 acres of pastureland in a morning if there are no obstacles. If there are buildings, concrete, sprinklers, roots, or other things in the way, it could take as long as 2 days to get the last details. Rule of thumb for trees: the roots will extend to the edge of the tree canopy. Some smaller roots may continue beyond the edge of the canopy. Do not turn the soil over. Mother Nature never turns the soil over. That is the worst thing you can do in preparation for anything you have planned. Definitely don't do it for under the house, and don't do it for the lawn. The box blade is all you need. If the driver feels the need to use the ripper bars on the box blade, at least that tool is under control. Other tools that dig or till the soil will cause an increasing bumpiness problem for three years. After that the soil will have settled and you can level it. Thank you for writing before you made any mistakes. |
So, basically, if I understand it right, the box blade and rippers are more like a big rake, i.e., the box blade "cuts" the dirt smooth, like a paring knife, and the ripper bars will "break up" the soil without mixing the layers that have developed naturally, vs tillage, which mixes subsoil, humus layers, and topsoil, etc... Am I right? My concern is the same as if you're building around existing trees, you see trees die years later because the construction equipment compacted the soil...& even new trees don't grow well that are planted because of the damage...you're saying livestock can't do that? |
- Posted by dchall_san_antonio 8 San Antonio (My Page) on Fri, Jul 12, 13 at 14:34
You see trees die because the owners like to topdress and b bury the trees too deep in the soil. This is a properly planted tree showing how the roots should be exposed. This is an improperly planted tree showing no exposed roots. Here is a picture of what a box blade does. What heavy equipment are you expecting in constructing a home? The worst part would be if the workers park their trucks on soggy soil. THAT will compact the soil. If the soil is fairly dry, it will not compact even under a thundering herd of bison. I'm less concerned about mixing layers with a rototiller than I am about fluffing the soil unevenly. It is impossible to hold a hand held rototiller steady enough to achieve a flat subsurface. The tiller churns the soil down to the subsurface. When you allow it to dig down, your new subsurface is uneven. When you level off the surface of the fluffy soil, the depth of the fluffy soil will vary according to the depth of the subsurface you left with the tiller. Then when it settles, it settles down to match the shape of the subsurface leaving a very bumpy surface. Most owners are more unhappy with a bumpy surface than anything else. Putting greens can be mowed down to 1/16 inch because they are perfectly profiled. You can't get to that level of perfection with a rototiller. |
- Posted by hairmetal4ever Z7 MD (My Page) on Fri, Mar 21, 14 at 9:33
Interesting subject. What long-term effects does maintaining pasture have on the overall soil properties like pH, nutrients, etc compared to the forest that would normally exist in most areas in Eastern North America? I would assume the manure (fresh from the grazing animals), grasses, etc would make for a somewhat different soil than forest over time. |

Retail Winners: Nike, GameStop, Borders
TheStreet) -- There are some big retail movers Thursday afternoon, as earnings season winds down for the sector.
One of the day's biggest gainers is Stein Mart (SMRT - Get Report), which is surging by 12.8% to $10.66 after it reported fourth-quarter results that topped estimates.
During the quarter, the department store swung to a profit of $2.7 million, or 6 cents a share, compared with a loss of $56.2 million, or $1.35, in the year-ago period. Excluding store closing and impairment charges of 13 cents per share, Stein Mart's profit was 19 cents, higher than the 17 cents a share analysts forecast.
Stein Mart's sales fell 6% to $341.8 million, while its same-store sales declined 6%.
GameStop (GME - Get Report) is also spiking on its better-than-expected earnings and optimistic guidance. During the quarter, GameStop earned $215.9 million, or $1.29 a share, a 7% decline compared with $232.3 million, or $1.39, in the year-ago period. Analysts expected the video game retailer to earn $1.28 a share. The company attributed the profit decline to weak same-store sales during the all-important holiday season, which tumbled 7.9%. Still, revenue increased to $3.52 billion from $3.49 billion in the prior year. Looking ahead, however, GameStop foresees full-year earnings in the range of $2.58 to $2.68 a share, significantly higher than Wall Street's forecast of $2.26 a share. Shares of GameStop are growing 7.7% to $21.39.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Name: Mika, child of nightmares. not much details about her yet, but she is around her mid teens and she has the ability to make her dreams real, very real, and she don't have happy dreams either, not to mention her dreams don't end even if she's awake. having destroyed so many homes with her nightmares she needed to find a place where she might be able to end them once and for all before they destroy her life entirely. perhaps someone in the league would have the answer... if not, at least she would have a place where she could unleash her nightmares without hurting (so many) innocent people. "Life is but a dream, but who said it was a happy dream?" She has short black hair and wears only a white tattered a dress (that is more grey than white cause of all the dirt), she is dark around her eyes due to lack of proper sleep and have a few bruises on her arms and knees.

Counter tips: * Mika's Cold Stare also effect herself, take advantage of that when ever possible, like baiting her to use it when you have your own allies nearby could ruin her day. * attack with CC when she channels for her ultimate to stop her from casting it. * if hit by Infernal Nightmare spread out from your allies or minions to stop it from spreading. -------------- 4 -------------- Select: will you find the way to end my dreams? /joke : I once had a dream about unicorn ponies, it didn't end well... /taunt : you are not scared of dreams are you? hahaha.

this is good i like it i hope riot does something similar if not exactly like this. 9/10 would read again and would play and she seems pretty ballanced. (not 10/10 because nothing is perfect)

In the words of Rutherford Rogers of Yale:Â "We're drowning in information and starving for knowledge."
Most marketers don't need more research or more data. They need more insight.
That may seem a small point, or even an obvious one, but I remain astonished by the high ratio of money spent on research that doesn't lead to action compared to money spent on research that does lead to action.
Information is useless in its own right, and far too many people and organizations are satisfied with spending millions of dollars on useless information. Yes, you need to know what's going on out there- but only if you are actually going to do something with the knowledge. Only if that information somehow yields competitive advantage.
The missing ingredient can sound trite. Insight is a much-overused term in the world of marketing. But it's insight that you're looking for. It's insight that's worth paying for- not information.
So try this: review every "research" expenditure you have. Ask the same two questions of each program or project:
-Will it lead to an action?
-Will it lead to insights that will yield competitive advantage?
If the answer is no to both questions, don't do it. Save the money and- perhaps more important- save the organizational time and focus that can be much better spent on insight generation.
Many companies seem to be so busy processing information that they lose track of its purpose. What if all that processing time and the minds that like to do that type of processing were replaced with insight-generation time and minds that like to create insight? It's time to find out.

I used to use bull nose for shower/tub wall edge. Now I am going to have my newly bought house remodeled. I found many tiles, especially ones from Porcelanosa, do not have bull nose. How does metal edge look compared to the bullnose one? My bathroom faucet etc are all brushed nickel. I don't know if polished nickel or satin nickel edge would look good. Thank you very much. |

- Posted by treasuretheday (My Page) on Thu, Mar 21, 13 at 15:18
I think that a metal edge can look very nice, particularly in more modern rooms, but our personal preference is bullnose. We were told by our tile supplier that the tile we chose doesn't come in bullnose. I took a sample tile to other suppliers to find a bullnose that would work with it and found my exact tile elsewhere...with the matching bullnose! It turns out that the first tile supplier "doesn't like" bullnose and they'll tell people that it's not available when its just not available through THEM. That may be your situation at all but, just in case, I thought I'd mention it so that you can confirm bullnose availablilty on the manufacturers' websites if that's what you prefer to use. If you do opt for a metal edge, I'd use satin nickel to match your other finishes and make it less obtrusive. |
I used Schluter edge on my two baths and it looks great. Jolly for the tile edge and Rondec for my niche. The Rondec has corner pieces. You can see a photo on the thread I link to. I prefer it over bullnose. I used bullnose in a third bath and wish I had used the Schluter instead. They have all sorts of finishes that can choose from. |
Here is a link that might be useful: photo of metal edge
Here is a close up of the Rondec in my master bathroom. Or, depending on the color of the tile you choose, you may be able to get the colored edging. We used Jolly in our downstairs hall bathroom. Sorry, I don't have a close-up picture. |

treasurethebay, jules8, and dekeoboe, thank you very much for your help. Jules8, your wall tiles and recessed niche with metal edge look very nice. Are they polished nickel or satin nickel? dekeoboe, where did you get the colored metal edge? Did you have metal edge on your shower step? Really appreciate all your help. |
I used polished chrome to match my plumbing fixtures. |
My metal edging is either brushed nickel or satin nickel, I can't remember which it is. The colored Jolly edge is PVC. I bought it at Home Depot and since it is PVC it is less expensive than the same profile in metal. And turns out to be less expensive than if you were to buy bullnose tile. Yes, we do have it along the edge of the shower curb. |

The Chili Peppers' First Trek to Israel
The band pays tribute to first guitarist who was Israeli
Last year when the Red Hot Chili Peppers announced they would play their first ever show in Israel, the following went up on The Scroll:
Long-time fans and/or Behind the Music aficionados know the band's history was significantly shaped by Israeli-born Hillel Slovak, their first guitarist. Slovak's 1988 death (he OD'd) fractured the band; the core of Anthony Kiedis (vocals), Flea (bass), and Chad Smith (drums) has gone through a revolving door of replacement guitarists in their nearly 30 years on the scene.
The band has persevered despite countless battles with drug addiction, reaching worldwide fame: Grammy wins (7), platinum albums (5), and $105(!) tickets for their Israeli debut.
Naturally, now that the band has finally played the show (last night), I thought it only fair to give an update on the event–despite the fact that it no longer seems to be a big deal when American bands go to israel. Though I swear, this story is different! From the Times of Israel:
Eleven years ago, the band canceled a gig because of second intifada-era security concerns. Now they were finally here, and Slovak was plainly a factor. They said they were sending out one song to his home town of Haifa. Bassist extraordinaire Michael "Flea" Balzary hailed him mid-set as the man who "invented Israeli funk"; left unsaid was the fact that the late guitarist's unique style has always informed the band. Flea also recalled how, when they were playing together in their early years in LA, Slovak made a trip to Israel, and came back "so excited… so full of love."
Listening to all of that, having Flea wish us all "Lehayim!," telling us how happy, grateful and "humbled" the band was to be here, hearing him say after the encores that they'd remember this night "for the rest of our lives" — well, it was clear, in retrospect, that the boycott pressure groups were never going to have kept the Chili Peppers away.
Further boosting their cred, Israeli jazz trumpeter Avishai Cohen came on stage for a few songs as well.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this cleanser. I have sensitive cheeks, prone to dryness and oily t zone prone to blackheads. Well this stuff is sooooo smoothing and relaxing and yet it cleans away all the gunk and leaves my skin soft and supple with NO TIGHTNESS.
My only beef is that the flip top of the cap doesnt easily align with the upper hole and I can not close the bottle- this has happend to two bottles so far.
I really like this milk. It is gentle, soft and it smells AWESOME! Decleor has the best smelling products ever. It removes my foundation and it doesn't cause pimples. This is a product for every skin!
I absolutely love this cleanser. I think it is most def. on it's way to HG status for sure. I initially thought it was gonna smell better than it does. I can't quite describe the scent..it isn't good..but it isn't bad??? Well i loves the consistency of the product. Very creamy but not in a thick greasy way. It has a nice slip, not to thick not to thin..perfect and also feels very water soluable. Usage: i apply a nice sized dollop to my dry face. I rub in circular motions all over adding a tiny bit of water if neccessary. I massage it in very very well and then i wipe it off with a dry facial washcloth. Then i dampen the washcloth with some warm water and then wipe all over my face again. Then i rinse my face with water and then do the damp washcloth number again. Then walah! All done (you should revise a routine for..whatever works for me may not work for you** Im just serious about my rinsing lol). This cleanser is awsome. It keeps my face feeling plush and moisturized.
UPDATE: What the....this stuff has "Isoparaffin" in it. ACK! Yeah..the stuff derived from mineral oil. I will not be purchasing this product anymore. It also has parabens. I'm off to try Boscia cleansing cream =)
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
i've been using this cleansing milk for over a decade now...i've never steered towards any other brand...i was first introduced to it by my facial lady...she uses a lot of decleor products combined with pola which is a japanese brand on her clients during a facial. i have ever since been hooked...i no longer use makeup removers which i use to....i just moisturize my face with this cleasing milk and rinse it off...and then do it a couple more times if the makeup is harder to take off and i'm done...clean clean and then just toner and moisturizer...great product..one thing i will never get rid of unless my skin needs a different product as i get older
My esthetician recommended this product to me and said (to my surprise) that my skin was very dry. I always had problems with cystic blemishes and have used proactive thinking that my skin was oily. Well, I've been using this for about 6 months now and my skin is looking significantly better! This product is all natural and very gentle yet an effective cleanser. I use their entire line!
It's very gentle and quite moisturizing. I like the runny consistency because it glides easily on my face. Smells divine. Price is quite steep though.
In conclusion I would say this is more suited for normal/dry skin. It's a bit too moisturizing for my combination/oily skin. I would buy it again maybe when I'm a bit older and my skin is drier.
I absolutely adore this cleanser. I have been using it for about six months now and it leaves my skin so soft and hydrated. I'm getting ready to purchase it again.
I love this. Like Cetaphil, you can get it near your eyes which is a plus for me as I don't use a lot of eye makeup. It also leaves moisture on the skin after you rinse. At my age this is a very good thing. I'd use Cetaphil but I need more moisture these days.
I like Babor a wee bit better than this cleanser. But there is no particular reason why. Decleor is a terrific cleanser. Cleans your skin without leaving it dry and parched. Perfect for dry or sensitive skin types of any age. Decleor is readily available where I live so it's easy to find. They have a complete product line so if keeping your skin in top notch condition is a must to you and you have the money this one is a great product. It's pricey as are all the Euro products. But they're better, sorry Estee Lauder, Lancome, Yves Saint Lauren, Chanel you still can't hold a candle to these companies when it comes to the stapes of cleansers/moisturizers/masques. IMHO, you're almost there but not quite.

17" LCD Harness
What good is being able to carry your computer easily when you can't carry your monitor around with the same ease? Well, we don't expect you to have to worry about that since we organized to have a look at the GearGrip 17" LCD harness as well. The 17" LCD is one of the more common monitor sizes among gamers for two reasons - they are one of the better valued LCDs and these days thanks to companies like Samsung, they have an extremely low MS response time.
The LCD Shield harness comes in a few different sizes and a few different colors (Blue/Black, Red/Black and the one we have here today Silver/Black) depending on what size LCD you have. They are available in small, medium and large. Small is designed for 15"-16" LCDs, Medium for 17" - 19" and Large for 19" - 21" LCDs. As we mentioned, the particular one we are looking at here is the medium one to help accommodate our 17" LCD.
The front of the panel has a thin film between the padded layers of fabric to help protect the front of the screen from being damaged - as we all know, when you're driving around from LAN to LAN, they can get knocked easily enough.
The back of the unit has a place for the power supply and a little Velcro strap so you can place your cables in there. Our particular LCD doesn't have a separate power supply so you could use the little bag for something else like your mouse or another power cable.
If you thought the installation on the Micro LT harness was easy, then you will be happy to find that the LCD harness is easier again. You simply lay the LCD on top of the protected layer and move the straps around the back and clip them together, which is done without too much hassle at all.
We then used the Velcro strap for our VGA and power cable and there you have it, we are now carrying our LCD around without much effort at all. We gave the LCD a bit of a swing around to make sure it wasn't going anywhere and thankfully it didn't fly out from under us into the our testing bench.

I have this in #400 (Rosewood), and I really like this.
I'm not much of a lipstick/liner wearer, but this is a nice one. It can be used as a liner or an all-over lip color.
Smooth texture, natural color, long-lasting and goes well with clear glosses.
For $5.00, not bad at all.
Figue is a great natural color I really like that you can fill your lips in with it as well goes great w/ shiny gloss.
New HG lipliner! I got two of these one in Rosewood and one in Figue. Anyway they are very similar. I used to use Laura Mercier lipliner in chestnut but these take the place of that! The consistency is a dream and they are they perfect MLBB liner. Since they are so chubby you can do your whole lip throw on gloss and you're done! I cannot believe they are only $5 and they stay on for like hours. I highly recommend!
I love this product! I have it in Wood, which I think is #105. It's a little bit darker than I expected from seeing it on the web site, but no big deal as it is still a good color on me. I use it under a tinted lip gloss and it's perfect. Excellent quality, goes on smoothly and has great pigmentation, like all Sephora lip products I've used.
I bought this color in Wood, and to be honest, I bought it because it was cheap, and I could get a free sample of Giorgio Armani's "Mania" (the reissue) with the order.
But its one of the best purchases for lipstick I've made. The color is great and I notice a very slight shimmer. It goes on smoothly, and all I need to do is apply some Chapstick to make it soft. I will definitely repurchase!
Surprisingly good product, considering the tiny $5 pricetag. I am a sucker for chubby pencils for eyes and lips so when I saw these, I just had to try one. I got it in a nude rose shade and it is suprisingly creamy and rich and pigmented. It works as a lipstick as well as a liner. I will definitely buy more colours the next time I order from Sephora.
I don't use lipstick/lipliner much (generally stick with just tint), so this was a nice cheap option for the occasion's I do put stuff on my lips. Work well for lining and filling in lips (acting as a base if need be), goes on smoothly. Portable and a wide selection of colors.

It reminded me about how a member here Toddapp79 or something collected piston cards and when we traded he sent me some great thunder extras as well....one of them being this card. It is #'d 4/5 and is possibly the best Nick Collison card that you can get in a Thunder Uni. I am a huge Collison fan and I have even had a Collison 1/1 logo card and didn't enjoy as much as I have this Collison. I love the cards in the Thunder Unis...I have given too much for 2nd and 3rd year cards of Thunder players because of that being the uniform that they were pictured in and this card is still my favorite and the crazy thing is that it was free! I even purchased a RC Patch of a Piston to send to toddapp after I recieved this and sent it to him as appreciation...ONCE AGAIN Toddapp THANKS..and thanks you nick for posting this thread. It is refreshing to hear the good news that there are great sellers and traders still in this hobby.

Comrex Named Verizon LTE Innovation Center Partner
Devens, MA - Aug 19, 2011 - Comrex has recently been added to the Verizon Wireless LTE Innovation Center Program. The Innovation Center, located in Waltham, MA, provides manufacturers of machine-to-machine (M2M) services with integration support for devices that utilize the Verizon 4G LTE Wireless Network. Comrex says the partnership has already produced results with new drivers for several Verizon LTE devices incorporated in the latest Access IP audio codec firmware.
"The ultimate goal of the Access product is to make wireless connections simple," said Comrex Technical Director Tom Hartnett. "This partnership allows us direct contact with not only the provider of the best-deployed 4G network in the US, but also a relationship with modem device manufacturers for easier integration. 4G has substantial benefits for our IP audio codecs and will really shine when used with our forthcoming LiveShot IP video codec."
Comrex has recently launched a campaign called "4G Simplicity" which provides a plug-and-play experience on Verizon LTE. Customers purchasing Access IP codecs receive hardware pre-programmed with the BRIC Traversal Server and configured to make "one touch" connections over Verizon 4G LTE and other 4G services.

About the album
Saxophone player Yuri Honing behaved like a matchless chameleon for decades but now he seems to unite all his experiences in one statement that is clear and transparent but also passionate and trendy.
Honing created a whole new sound in a classical acoustic setting. With new and sometimes provocative compositions and a unique way of using loops.
Honing put together a group of musicians from different generations thus forming a musical weapon that blasts away all those with a cynical approach to the future of jazz. The new album was recorded last summer in Berlin. A city that is bubbling with new initiative and has at the same time a rich history. In that way it corresponds precisely with what the saxophone player represents. The album was recorded in a single day. That is all the time Yuri needs to make a statement that will buzz around in the international music scene for a long time.
Honing never made any difference in style – Jazz is not a style, but a language – and proves again that it is possible to blend the achievements of jazz and pop in an emotional and sophisticated way creating a unit that will appeal to the whole world. And not in the least because the vocal qualities of the saxophone performance reach to a new climax in this recording.
"True" is perhaps the most personal album Yuri has released so far.

Beauty PR Agency 5WPR Adds Uni K Wax Center To Client Roster
NEW YORK, Feb. 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- 5W Public Relations, one of the 25 largest independent public relations firms in the U.S., today announced the addition of Uni K Wax Centers to its diverse roster of beauty clients.
Uni K Wax is a pioneer in waxing, providing the cleanest, greenest, and fastest waxing experience on the market. The award-winning services, painless hair removal method and unique proprietary natural wax set Uni K apart. The Uni K all natural wax is formulated with beeswax and a unique pine tree resin full of essential oils to hydrate, exfoliate and moisturize while removing hair.
Unlike conventional hard, hot wax, the Uni K wax is applied at body-temperature, and formulated to stretch over the entire area of skin, allowing the trained waxers to remove hair all at once on large areas, resulting in less pain. Since its original center opened in South Beach, Florida in 1993 by Founder Noemi Grupenmager, customers have experienced the soothing and painless waxing experience at Uni K Wax Centers, now with several doors opened around the country.
"We are very excited about the continued growth of our firm in the beauty PR arena," said Ronn Torossian, Founder of 5WPR. "We are excited to elevate the brand's visibility in the US within leading beauty and consumer oriented media, and share the unique benefits of the Uni K waxing experience."
