According to the Council on Undergraduate Research: ``Undergraduate research is an inquiry or investigation conducted by an undergraduate that makes an original intellectual or creative contribution to the discipline.''
Your research in this group will have an emphasis on computational physics. Depending on your particular project, your experience may also include research on chemistry, biology, and computer sciences. Your work may include any of the following:
Engaging in a research project as an undergraduate student can be a highly rewarding (and demanding!) activity. Research has shown that undergraduate students benefit significantly from such an experience. However, it is a complex activity that requires one to engage in behaviors not practiced so far (extreme levels of organization, perseverence, attention to details among others). The following are pieces of advice based on experience, and other references including "How to mentor undergraduate researchers" published by the Council on Undergraduate Research.
This is the most important requirement while undertaking a research project. Unethical behavior in research undermines signficantly the confidence our society has in science. The physical and mental well being of human beings depends on the advancement of science. If our society loses its confidence in science, the well being of society itself is at stake. In addition, behaving unethically can also have direct impacts on the health of humans (see for example Tampered data cast shadow on drug trial). The following are some resources where you can learn about ethics in research and some other interesting articles:
During your research experience, you will likely create a lot of data. To be able to repeat your research (either experiments or simulations), to communicate to others, to analyze your data, it is paramount that you have an organized record of your work. These are some resources that may be helpful and/or interesting:
In order to find an article you need (assuming you have a specific reference), you will have to access the website of your institution's library. Find out how to search for a specific journal and type the name of the journal where the article is published. If your institution has electronic access to that journal, then go to the website of the journal by clicking the appropriate link. Enter the volume and page numbers on the appropriate entry and you should have access to the PDF of the article you are looking for. If your institution does not have electronic access to that journal, then you may have access to the physical hard copies of the journal (it should show up as an option when you see the results of your search). If that is the case, then you will have to go to the library (yes, the actual building), and make photocopies of the article. If your institution does not have any access to that journal then use the Interlibrary Loan process to obtain access to this article.
Computational sciences now contribute equally along with experiments and theory to the advancement of science. Computations can complement experiments and theory in a way that allows us to understand even more about our natural world. For example, simulations allow scientists to obtain insight for natural phenomena that experiments cannot provide. Sometimes, experiments are too time consuming, or expensive, and in those cases simulations may provide us with required results faster as well as more inexpensively.
It is important to keep in mind though that computational models need to be validated before used to predict any physical quantity. This can be done by comparing the new computational method with an already validated computational method or with good quality experimental data.
You can read more about computational sciences here:
Giving a presentation about your research is a wonderful experience for undergraduate students. These are some things to keep in mind:
Attending a scientific conference is a great experience for undergraduate students. You can maximize your gains from attending a conference by keeping a few things in mind.
Latex is a program that you can use to create professional documents (a typesetting program). This is a very different program compared to Microsoft Word as what you see in your Latex file is not what you get. You have to create the Latex input file that contains the text as well as your instructions for formatting the text. Then you have to compile your input file in order to obtain first a DVI file and then a PDF (portable document format) file. If there are any typos, or mistakes in your input file regarding the formatting instructions, Latex will not be able to compile it. You will have to fix those errors in order to obtain the PDF file. Even though there is a learning curve associated with Latex, it is a program that will allow you to create professional documents, much better than what you can do with word processors.
First you need to create the Latex input file (say for example main.tex). An example of a simple Latex input file can be found here. You will also need to download a figure. Make a folder, for example "REPORT", and then make a folder "FIGURES" in the REPORT folder. The figure should be saved in the FIGURES folder, whereas the latex main.tex file should be in the REPORT folder. This example contains the instructions about creating a simple document, with a table, and a figure. Read it carefully (you can use gedit to read it) and try to understand what each line/command does.
Once you have your input file ready you will need to compile your document. To do this, you will need to use the terminal and go to the directory where you have the input file. We suggest you to have a separate folder where you keep this input file only because compiling it with Latex will result in other files being created. To compile your input file, run the command ''latex main.tex''. If your input file was compiled succesfully then you are now back to the terminal. Run the same command once again. If the program finished cleanly, then you have a ''main.dvi'' file. To convert the main.dvi (DVI) file to a PS (Post-Script) file you will need to run the command ''dvips main.dvi''. If everything goes well, you have a main.ps file created in this directory. Then, you will have to convert the PS file to a PDF file by running the command "ps2pdf main.ps". If everything goes well, you have a main.pdf file created in your directory.
If when compiling your input file, you got error messages then try to indentify which line the error message is at. This is typically shown with an error like ''l.54'' that indicates that the error is on line 54 of your input file. Latex will likely indicate what is wrong with the input file you have (for example, Latex may indicate that a right bracket is missing). Find and correct the error before compiling your Latex input file again. If Latex gets stuck when compiling your input file press Control + C to stop Latex and get back to the terminal (if Control + C does not work try Control + Z)
This is a list with some helpful introductory tutorials on Latex:
Latex is available for free. MikTex is the Windows version of Latex, also available for free. You can install Miktex on your Windows PC. If you are running Linux or MAC OS then you can install Latex for free.
If you are having issues with the margins then you may have to instruct dvips to use letter size pages with the command: ''texconfig dvips paper letter''. See here for more information.
You can use bibtex to include references in your Latex document. You will need to have one (1) more file, in addition to the ``main.tex'' file. Specifically, you will need a references.bib file. Download those two files and include them in the same directory with your ``main.tex'' file. Then, in the ``main.tex'' file include at the very end, but before the end of the document, ``\bibliographystyle{plain}'' and ``\bibliography{references}''. In the ``references.bib'' file you can include the information about all your references and you can use the ``\cite{}'' command in your document for referencing a particular article, book, etc. When compiling your code, you will have to compile once with ``latex main'', then do ``bibtex main'', then again ``latex main'', then do ``bibtex main'' again, then again ``latex main'', and finally convert your DVI file to a PS and then PDF file. This is a list with some helpful introductory tutorials on Bibtex:
Occasionaly, you may have a very wide table that you would like to place sideways on a page. To do this, you will have to load the rotating package and use the sidewaystable command. More detailed instructions and a simple example can be found here.
Sometimes you may had to write a report or manuscript that includes many sections (among others an abstract, introduction, methods etc). In that case, it is preferable to write each section in a different Latex file (eg abstract.tex, introduction.tex, methods.tex etc) and then load all separate TEX files in one main Latex file. To do this you will need one main Latex file, such as the one found here, and all the separate Latex files you need, such as introduction.tex, methods.tex, results.tex. These four Latex files will help you make a complex document in an organized and efficient fashion. Note that the introduction.tex file include text only, there is no \begin{document} command there because that one is included in the main.tex file.
You can use Latex to make a presentation of very high quality. You can find a Latex presentation template here and use it to make your own presentation. The template includes an itemized list, table, figure, slide columns. Download the figure from here and save it in a directory named "figures". To be able to compile this template you will need to have the Beamer package. If you compile the latex file and then convert it to a PDF you should get this. For more information on Beamer:
You can use Latex to make a research poster of very high quality. Please find a Latex poster template here and use it to make your own research poster. If you compile this latex poster you should get this PDF poster. You can choose any theme you prefer, just comment out the current choice and uncomment the one you want to use. You can make tables, equations and insert pictures in the same way you do for a Latex document.
If you need to use our laptop to login to your account in our computer cluster you can follow these steps:
Our computers use the Centos Linux operating system. You can check your home directory when you login to the computer and you can see what files and folders you have. For your research you will have to use the terminal, which includes a command line. In the command line you can type a command and when you press "Enter" the command will be executed. For example, after you are in the command line, type "ll", press "Enter", and then you will see a list with the contents of the current folder. Type "pwd" which stands for "print working directory" and you will see the current "working" directory. To change directory you can type "cd" followed by the name of the directory you want to go to. If you type "cd .." you will go up a directory.
You can read more about Linux and how to use a terminal here:
The default terminal appearance may not be optimal. In our computers the default terminal is black (characters) on white (background). A white background may make you tired faster than a dark-colored background. You can do the following to improve the appearance of your terminal. First, open a terminal. Then click on Edit, and then Profile Preferences. Uncheck the box next to "Use the system fixed width font" and try the Courier 10 Pitch font at a font size of 10. To change the color, click on the tab "Colors", and choose the "White on Black" built-in scheme. See how the terminal looks like now and make any other changes you wish. Choose fonts that will be easy to read, and a color scheme that will not make you tired fast.

Three-dimensional structures of small molecules as well as macromolecules can be deduced from experimental data. Typically, the structures of molecules are deposited in data banks, so that other researchers can use them (for structure-based drug design for example). The structure of a molecules is deposited as a file that includes the atoms of the molecule followed by the X, Y, and Z coordinates of each atom. In addition to the XYZ coordinates, the file may also contain information about the experimental method used to obtain the structure. The Protein Data Bank (PDB) is the data bank that includes structures of biological macromolecules, proteins, RNA, and DNA. The PDB uses a specific format for the structures deposited there (the PDF format). Another popular file format is the XYZ format.
You can read more about the PDB format and other file formats here:
Data obtained from x-ray crystallography is most often in fractional coordinates, a coordinate system which describes the positions of atomic nuclei by the edges of the unit cell. To create a PDB file, fractional coordinates must be converted to cartesian coordinates, either by manually using a matrix or using a program such as Chimera. First, create a .cif file from the data. The IUCr guide for authors link is a helpful resource for this. If the crystal symmetry is monoclinic (alpha = gamma = 90 degrees, beta is not equal to 90), the coordinates may need to be in standard form (a parallel to x-axis, b in xy plane) for accurate conversion. The matrix for this may be generated by a program such as OpenBabel. Then, use Chimera (or a similar program) to open the .cif file; save the molecule as a PDB file under the "File" option. An alternative option is to generate the fractional to cartesian matrix from a program or other resource and manually apply it to the data.
Proteins, RNA and DNA are all biological macromolecules with different three-dimensional structures. The structures of biological macromolecules ultimately affect their function, therefore it is important that the structure of those molecules remains intact.
You can read more about the structure of biological molecules here:
General information:
Experimentally determined molecular structures (what you see when you visualize a PDB or XYZ file) are the result of interpretation of experimental data. Thus, each molecular structure has limitations, depending on the quality of the interpretation. These are some guidelines when judging crystallographic structures deposited in databases. The resolution must be higher than 2.5 Angstroms, R and R free values should be calculated and in an accepted range of values, occupancies should be exactly 1.0 and B values that indicate the mobility of the atoms should be extraordinary large, for example larger than 50 Angstroms². For more specific guidelines, please read the articles below that discuss the limits of experimental methods in determining structures of molecules.
Limitations of experimental methods:
When searching for structures of small molecules you are practically searching for two things: a publication regarding the 3D experimental structure and the coordinates of all atoms. Typically publications do not include all XYZ coordinates so you will have to obtain that information from some database. You could either try to find the publication first and then find the coordinates (typically in PDB or XYZ format) or vice versa. To search for publications that report the structure follow the usual steps for searching in literature. To find the coordinates you will have to search on a database. Some databases are free, some are not.
These are some databases that include information on molecules:
In order to find publications that report the structure try searching on: If you do get a published article that describes the experimental structure, you can try asking from CCDC for the coordinates (if they are deposited there): If nothing of the above works, you could try find the structure of the molecule when it is bound to a macromolecule (protein or DNA) by searching in the PDB or NDB.We have a script available in our computers that allows us to calculate the net formal charge of an amino acid sequence (protein). First, you will need to create a simple text file that contains the amino acid sequence of the protein. Make sure you use the 3-letter abbreviation for the amino acids. See here for an example of this text file. To create this text file you can use (if available) the sequence that in the PDB file of that protein. For example, to make this text file, I copied the sequence from the PDB file of the protein (search for the SEQRES keyword). When you have this text file ready, then run the command "net-charge-protein.pl your-amino-acid-sequence-file" and the program will print on the monitor the net formal charge of that amino acid sequence. This calculation assumes that there are two negatively charged amino acids (ASP and GLU), and two positively charged amino acids (LYS and ARG). Histidine is assumed to be neutral.
Quite often the visualization of the electrostatic potential on a molecular surface provides useful information regarding physico-chemical processes. To do this with Chimera, you can first open the PDB file of your macromolecule (the without water molecules, ions etc). Then do TOOLS->STRUCTURE EDITING->PDB2PQR. Select a force field (TYL06), include the name of the output file with the .pqr extension (make sure you save it in the directory where you want this calculation to reside), and finally click on OK. This step will result in a PQR file that will be the input file for the next step.
Do FILE->CLOSE SESSION and then FILE->OPEN the PQR file you created in the previous step. Then go to TOOLS->SURFACE/BINDING ANALYSIS->APBS. Include a name with the .dx extension for the results to be written (again make sure this file resides in the folder with this calculation), under options select the non-linear Poisson-Boltzmann equation (because your molecule will most likely be charged), and click on OK. It will take a few minutes for the calculation to finish.
Finally, you can do ACTION->SURFACE->SHOW and visualize the molecular surface according to the Poisson-Boltzmann results. You will likely have to play a bit in order to find the best way of visualizing your results (how many colors you want, to which values they should correspond to etc).
You can read a bit about the Poisson-Boltzmann method here:
When you have all input files ready, then you can submit the autogrid job that will calculate the free energy grids. To submit the autogrid calculation you can type in the command line: "subag4 FILE.gpf -q veryshort". Replace FILE.gpf with the name of your GPF file.
When the free energy grids are calculated you can check the log file (FILE.glg) for any warnings, errors, and the succesful completion of the grids. Open the grid log file and check for any warnings or errors. At the end of the log file, the line should read "succesfull completion".
When you have all input files ready and the energy grids calculated, you can submit the autdock job that will find the probable physical binding sites. To submit the autodock calculation you can type in the command line: "subad4 FILE.dpf -q veryshort/short/medium/long/verylong". Replace FILE.dpf with the name of your own DPF file and choose the most appropriate queue for your calculation.
When the docking calculations are completed you can check the docking log file (FILE.dlg) for any warnings, errors, and the succesful completion of the docking. Open the docking log file and check for any warnings or errors. At the end of the log file, the line should read "succesfull completion".
When you have your .nw input file ready you can submit your NWChem calculation by using the subnwc script. Go to the directory where your .nw input file is and type in the command line: "subnwc FILE.nw -q veryshort/short/medium/long/verylong -pe mpi X". Replace FILE.nw with your input file (include the .nw extension), choose an appropriate queue, and then include the "-pe mpi X" part only if you will run your calculation in parallel. If you will be using a single core, then do not include that. If you will be using more than one core, then include it and replace X with the number of cores you want.
When you have your .in input file, parameter/topology file, and input coordinates file ready you can submit your AMBER calculation by using the subsander script. Go to the directory where your input files are and type in the command line: "subsander FILE.in -p PRMTOP -c INPCRD -q veryshort/short/medium/long/verylong -pe mpi X". Replace FILE.in with your input file (include the .in extension), replace PRMTOP with your parameter/topology file, replace INPCRD with your input coordinates file, choose an appropriate queue, and then include the "-pe mpi X" part only if you will run your calculation in parallel. If you will be using a single core, then do not include that. If you will be using more than one core, then include it and replace X with the number of cores you want. It is very important to have the AMBER flags first and then choose the queue with the -q flag, thus the order of the arguments is extremely important. Your calculation will not be submitted if this is rule is not followed.
We use a queueing system that manages our calculations in the most efficient way. Our cluster has five (5) queues, with different time limits. When you submit your calculation please make sure that you use the most appropriate queue so that your calculations will finish as soon as possible. We currently have the following queues with time limits:
In general, we need to keep all input and output files. The input files are necessary because they contain all the information we need to redo a calculation if necessary and to know how did a particular calculation. The output files are necessary because they contain the results from our calculations but also logs of all calculations. The input files you need to keep are: MACRO.PDBQT, LIGAND.PDBQT, FILE.GPF, FILE.DPF. The output files you need to keep are: FILE.GLG, FILE.DLG, FILE.*.FLD. You can delete all files that end with .map as they use a lot of disk space and they are not needed, they are intermediate files and can be created again using the input files if we need them.
Depending on your project you may have to recluster your AutoDock results. To do this, use the terminal and go to the directory where you have your results. Then run the command "pythonsh /share/apps/MGLTOOLS/mgltools_x86_64Linux2_1.5.4/MGLToolsPckgs/AutoDockTools/Utilities24/summarize_results4.py -d . -t 2.0". If you a reference file and you want to recluster your AutoDock results against that ligand geometry then do instead "pythonsh /share/apps/MGLTOOLS/mgltools_x86_64Linux2_1.5.4/MGLToolsPckgs/AutoDockTools/Utilities24/summarize_results4.py -d . -t 2.0 -f YOUR-RMSD-REFERENCE", where YOUR-RMSD-REFERENCE is the ligand file with the reference geometry. This will create a file called "summary_of_results_2.0". This file contains the reclustered results. The 2nd column is the "number in cluster", the 3rd column is the "lowest binding free energy", the 4th column is "RMSD", the 5th column is "number of ligand atoms", and the 6th column is "number of ligand rotatable bonds". Usually, the 5th and the 6th columns are not usefull.
Once you have AutoDock results you may want to do some high-quality figures for reports and presentations. Use AutoDock Tools to open the DLG file with the results and visualize the conformations. Find the conformation you want to use for your picture. Click on FILE, then WRITE PDB, and then save your coordinates in PDB form. Use Chimera to read the macromolecule PDB file and the ligand PDB file (the one you just created). Click on PRESETS, then PUBLICATION 1. Do any other changes that will make you figure clear. Click on FILE, then SAVE IMAGE, change SUPERSAMPLE to 4X4, and then save image in EPS format.
If you have a molecular surface then you need to increase the quality of that surface. To do this, go to model panel in favorites and click on the MSMS model of surface (attributes), and then increase ten-fold the vertex density. You will also have to increase ten-fold the subdivision quality in vieweing effects.
Using Chimera, one of the molecules in a bimolecular system may be rotated with respect to the other molecule. The following is an example of the command that may be used: turn #0:REF@C3#1:BPE@C20 10 models 0 (a space only after "turn", "20", "10", and "models"). In this case, the model number was 0, and the axis of rotation was specified by two atoms (C3 and C20). #0 and #1 refer to the model number, REF and BPE refer to the residue name, and 10 is the number of degrees one wishes to rotate. The 0 at the end specifies which of the two models (molecules) to rotate. Other options may be found through this link (search for the turn command).
If you want to find the binding free energy of a ligand-macromolecule system for a specific geometry (for example the geometry of the crystal structure model), then you will have to use the "epdb" keyword in your DPF file. In particular, you will have to write "epdb" in a separate line in your DPF file and you will have to comment out all keywords which invoke a search ("ga_run" and "analysis"). For an example, see here.
If you want to find a local minimum of the binding free energy around a geometry that you specify (for example around the geometry of the crystal structure model), then you will have to use the "do_local_only" keyword. In particular, you will have to:

Wow, those dips are pretty deep.. about 25 dB..
Do I understand your hint correctly when I guess that if you invert the
mid band and add it at the right level the whole thing would end up more
or less flat? I don't know when the actual processing happens, but I
guess if you invert the mid band you will need to handle that a bit
differently as well. Maybe that's all total bollocks though :)

No new worries for Spireites boss
The Spireites have no fresh injury concerns or suspensions after the weekend's 5-2 thumping of Darlington at Saltergate. Sheridan can therefore name the same squad for the trip to Gigg Lane but he may consider reshuffling the forward line to include Scott Boden. Boden came off the bench with nine minutes remaining and grabbed a quickfire brace in the defeat of the Quakers. Chesterfield will be without three long-term casualties. Gregor Robertson (broken leg) and Jamie Lowry (cruciate ligament) are out for the rest of the season, while Aaron Downes (cruciate ligament) is still not ready to return to the first-team despite beginning his comeback.

Re: Allez Mandy Minella!
Yes, but it's all about her mental strength.
An outlook at her year end ranking (Please correct me if I'm wrong):
By reaching the Captiva Island SF, Mandy has already won 32 WTA points. For the final, she would get 50 points, for a tournament victory 70. A victory would move her back into the Top 100.
Until the end of this year, she has 18 points to defend (QF in Ankara $50k, 17 december 2012). She still plays one tournament this year, Sharm El Sheikh ($75k), which has
a strong participant list
, but she could be seeded. Winning one round there would almost (14p) win back those points, everything beyond is a bonus.

Friday, August 29 08:37:14
Eircom today posted a 6pc fall in its revenues for its full year to the end of June last but said that its restructuring has seen 8 straight quarters of financial stability.
It recorded a loss of E333m for the year as it absorbed restructuring costs of E235m including the cost of redundancies and a defined benefit pension scheme.
Revenue at the communications group was 6pc lower over the year at E1.28bn, with earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation falling 1pc (E3m) to E479m.
Eircom made a loss of E117m last year, during which time it took an exceptional charge of E22m.
Commenting on today's announcements, Herb Hribar, CEO eircom Group, said "The past twelve months underline real and sustained progress in the transformation of eircom both in our financial performance and our product offerings to our customers. We have now had eight consecutive quarters of EBITDA stability, slowing decline in our revenues and an improved cost base."
"Network investment continues at pace both in our fixed and mobile platforms. We were the first to market with a quadruple play bundle of services including our new eVision TV offering and the first to market with 4G mobile services. Our rollout of Ireland's largest fibre network, which already reaches more than 900,000 homes and businesses, remains on schedule and on budget - demonstrating that eircom has the expertise to build a fit for purpose, scalable and future proofed network throughout Ireland. Today we are accelerating our rollout and now expect to reach 1.4m premises by December 2015," Mr Hribar added.
The company also reported E10m in expenses to cover the cost of repairs following storm damage earlier this year.
On a positive note, operating costs fell by E91m over the year as employee numbers declined by almost 1,100.
The firm also saw a E39m improvement in its finance costs following a restructuring of its debt.
During the year the number of broadband connections managed by the company rose 7.5pc to 718,000. Eircom said the rate of 'churn', that is the percentage of customers switching to other providers, also fell.
It said it had 133,000 subscribers to its new fibre broadband service, while 21,000 customers had signed up to its television platform 'eVision'.

So far so good. One of the best toners I've tried so far. It clarifies my skin and make my skin tone more even. The toner is pretty strong, so you have to wait 10 mins to let it sinks in before you put moisturizer on. No breakout from it. The quantity is a lot more than what you've paid. Will repurchase when my skin starts to look dull :) Oh, since it's quite strong, I think you need to use a really good moisturizer to help keep your skin in balance.
i really like this, it makes my skin feel smooth and clean and gives it that glowy appearance, it doesnt do much for my acne though. its a little bit harsh so i cant use it twice a day, i only use it at night, but it gives me a nice clean feeling and allows my night moisturizer to do its job better. one thing is the smell makes my eyes burn for a few seconds while im putting it on, maybe im just a little sensitive but its pretty strong. i like it, but im not sure if ill be rebuying it when i run out because although it makes my skin smooth, its not clearing up my acne which is the main reason i bought it...and its pretty expensive..so im still searching for the perfect toner.
I had originally tried the DDF 10% Glycolic Toner and I thought it was just ok. It didn't do anything and it took forever to dry. I was a little skeptical to try the Peter Thomas Roth version, but I'm so glad I did! It smooths and makes my skin feel super soft. I saw a difference after the first use and it just keeps getting better! My skin is more even-toned and glowing! I am fair-skinned and it is fading the red post-acne marks that I've had forever and I have only been using it for a couple of weeks. FYI, I have been using this toner every day after the Peter Thomas Roth AHA/BHA Face and Body polish, which is also a phenomenal product!
4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
ive never been a big believer in toners, but i decided to try this one out and i really like it. ive only used this for 3 days but so far it seems to be doing exactly what it claims to do. i bought it to remove the last traces of make-up at night, but have also started using it in the morning to smooth and prep my face for makeup and on my back to treat and prevent blemishes (bacne, gross!) surprisingly, it doesnt dry me out, just sweeps away flakes and clarifies my skin tone. i also really do feel like it helps other products to penetrate better because when i use my overnight retinol treatment after this, my skin looks better in the morning than when i use it on its own.
I guess this stuff is o.k. I didn't notice too much of a difference after using it for about 2 weeks or so. The price is pretty expensive for a toner. I believe it caused a few pimples to form on my cheek...and I never get pimples on my cheek! I would rather use something cheaper...that gives me better results...like witch hazel. Maybe my skin is too senstive to use this stuff...don't know. Never buying it again.
After using this toner for about 2 weeks, I saw a difference in my skin. Even my co-workers noticed the change. My skin is much more glowy and clear. The cdn price for this is pretty high, but I guess in the end it's worth it. Amazing product.
I tried it on a lark one day as my usual toner (oxygen mist) ran out. Skin clearer, pores smaller and no, I repeat, not a single breakout!! I was trying out a few things at the time, so didn't really attribute it to this. When it ran out, bought Liz Earle's toner.Bad, bad, bad mistake!! My skin did not exactly go berserk, but a few breakouts starts to appear, which is frustating when previously, it was clear. Back to the gycolic toner - and perfect skin again. Results for me!!
I have, like everyone else out there!, tried heaps of different toners trying to find one that does everything you want it to do. This is it. It is strong enough to take care of any small blemishes but gentle enough that is doesn't feel like its taking a layer of skin off when you use it! You wake up with nice smooth skin after using this a few times. Is a wee bit pricey though.
i bought this toner after reading the reviews. i have dehydrated skin that is very prone to brake outs. was quite disappointed as i did not notice any improvement in my skin at all from using this product. it didnt aggravate my skin condition but it didnt improve it either. will not repurchase.
This is turning out to be a great purchase. I was using P50 forever but it stopped working for me in the last 6 months and I started getting patches of breakouts in my T-zone. Thanks to the reviews here on MA, I tried this product. Very glad I did. After using for about two or three days (morning and night), I noticed a significant improvement in my breakout spots. And my acne scars are lightening-up too. The price is right...around $30 at Sephora. Packaging is practical. My skin is a little sensitive and so I feel some tightness/dryness, as PTR warns might happen. Now that my acne is starting to heal, I am only using the product at night and have gone back to the P50 in the mornings. I am very happy with this product and recommend it to most skin types for mild acne breakouts. Super sensitive skin should try a sample first and use cautiously.

Brooklyn based Jewelry designer Gabriela de la Vega's special Antique key collection, combines timelessness and originality with style. The keys are casted in Vermeille; sterling silver and plated with 18k gold. In the necklace featured above, the center key was a key to a grandfather clock. All of the keys have their own histories. Another was a key to an old desk given to Gabriela by her Great Grandmother, that she always held onto and never lost.
Click here to shop around! Every piece is so feminine and expressive. There's something about the shape and mystery of old keys that gives me the good kinda chills. Love it!

some devil with a pitchfork keep talkin' like he know me
i'm psychopathic, low key, my hyperactive dome piece
get no sleep, ill as fuck, the hospitals seem so weak
i stood before an angel as he told me bout the glory
put me in a room of people, how the f-ck could i be lonely
i only get money, these lables tryna clone me
uh, my thoughts get heavy, hit the ground and crack the concrete.
so, i try to keep em' in my head
it's sad to see when everything that you believe is dead
word to heavy d, and rest in peace to all that come and pass
life is good sometimes, but it just doesn't last
a bunch of tracks, you see this mic is like my punchin' bag
rock n' roll, drugs and cash, you softer than a bubble bath
sucka ass mothafucka, muthafucka's venom and
doper than the shit that put chris tucker in dead presidents
desert rhymes, homie, ridin' beats, i'm on a camel
i'm way too hot to handle, life a beach, i brought my sandals
haha, you want a war ? i got a lot of ammo
you ain't a soldier cause you rockin' cammo
young rambo, hundred million fans though
and i do it big, you a ipod nano
fire on wax, look like i rock candles

i'm dutch smokin', that's a strike
but f-ck bowlin', i could tear a pin of maryland
see, i'm american, apparently it's damagin'
to be in front of cameras in your underwear with marilyn
monroe, look at dumb hoes who want to much dough
and come close to have you straight trippin' when you jump rope
don't rock the love boat, this business f-ckin' cut throat
and it's gunna crack is you just paint the wall with one coat
rooms filled with blunt smoke, peep me through the fog
these rappers who be hatin' probably need to get a job
see, me i'm with my squad, gettin' money, livin' comfortable
i know a couple hoes who model, but they ugly though
f-ck a toast, y'all is f-ckin' broke, cut ya throat
judgin' me is nothin' dope, boy you lyin' under oath
god made the world, why did man make the scriptures?
and if he created lennon, why'd he go and make a hitler?
i could take a photo, but i'd rather paint a picture
of the one lawrence fishburne, we'll shoot up all you hipsters
i'm from pittsburgh, that's black and gold
if my skin gets filled up, i'mma tat my soul
runnin' out of paper, writin' on my hand
hundred thousand haters writin' bout my jams
want a number one independent album? i'm your man
i'mma hit preme and leave you all right where you stand

Agent: Krstic leaving Nets to play for team in Moscow
New Jersey Nets free agent Nenad Krstic signed a two year deal worth $3 million euros per year with Triumph Moscow early Tuesday morning, Krstic's agent, Marc Cornstein, said.
The salary is the equivalent of around $9 million per year in the United States once you factor in the exchange rate and the fact that European clubs pay all the players' taxes.
Cornstein worked until midnight Eastern time trying to find an NBA team willing to pay Krstic at least a mid-level contract to keep him in the NBA. But as the midnight deadline passed, Krstic became the sixth NBA player to recently bolt the league for Europe.
"At the end of the day, Triumph offered him the most love," Cornstein told ESPN.com. "This was too good of a deal to pass up for him."
Krstic joins Josh Childress, Bostjan Nachbar, Juan Carlos Navarro, Jorge Garbajosa, Carlos Delfino and Primoz Brezec as NBA players who opted to play for more money overseas this year. Three of the six are Cornstein clients.
Krstic was having a near All-Star season in 2007 when he injured his ACL. His comeback last season was slow and at the end of the day teams opted against offering him the contract Cornstein was seeking, a two year deal (with a player option for the third year) starting at around $5 million per season.
The interest from a relatively unknown team in Russia, Triumph, will certainly raise even more eyebrows. It's one thing when Euroleague powerhouses like Olympiacos sign Childress. But when non-Euroleague teams like Triumph start being able to outbid NBA teams ... has the pendulum swung entirely the other way?
"I think you almost have NBA teams being overly cautious at this point," one Eastern Conference GM told Insider. "With so many teams so close to the luxury tax, teams are unwilling to take risks. Krstic was a risk. A small one, but a risk. We are certainly seeing the effects of the collective bargaining agreement this year. But these things are cyclical. If lots of team had cap room, Childress, Krstic and others would be playing in the NBA."

I want to search google or whatever the default search engine is set in the browser, by selecting a few words in the web page. Can I do this with a simple shortcut, instead of copy pasting the word in the search box and hitting enter?
Nobody's addressed the issue of how to select some text using the keyboard. Firefox and IE have Caret Browsing, activated by F7. It lets you move a text cursor (caret) around to both navigate the document and select text, much like a word processor (except you can't edit). Select text in the usual way, by holding Shift and navigating. Chrome has partial support for keyboard text selection using Shift + cursor keys, but it only works to expand or reduce an existing selection that's been made with the mouse :( Both browsers can open the context menu with Shift+F10 or the context menu key - there's a search item on the menu. |
Firefox There is addon for that. Search it up! - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/13174 Chrome
Both Chrome and Firefox allow you to search for a selected word or phrase through the context menu (as does IE 8). You can access the context menu not only with the second (usually the right) button on your mouse, but with the context menu key available on most keyboards made in the past few years. This assumes you're on Windows. |

June 6 (Bloomberg) -- The Reserve Bank of Australia may resume lifting the developed world's highest borrowing costs in July or August to counter inflation fueled by the biggest surge in demand since 2009, rates in money markets show.
Yields on July and August interbank cash rate futures advanced, extending last week's first gain in a month. A June 1 gross domestic product report showed demand grew 1.3 percent in the first quarter, more than twice as much as in the prior period. June contracts show traders are betting RBA Governor Glenn Stevens will leave the central bank's target interest rate at 4.75 percent tomorrow, where it's been since November.
Household spending accounts for 55 percent of Australia's economy, and the central bank has sought to restrain consumption with 175 basis points of rate increases between October 2009 and November, letting investment in mining drive growth. A June 2 report showing the biggest increase in retail sales in 17 months signals higher incomes are encouraging consumers to spend more, spurring the first weekly decline for benchmark 10-year notes since April 8.
"The question over the timing of the next RBA move has come down to the propensity to consume," said Jarrod Kerr, director of Australia rates strategy at Credit Suisse Group AG in Singapore. "The strength of consumption and the surge in income growth suggests the RBA will deliver another rate rise in the coming months."
Soaring Currency
The RBA has expressed concern that higher consumption will clash with capacity constraints such as skill shortages caused by mining investment that the government estimates will reach A$76 billion ($82 billion) next fiscal year.
Twenty-three of 28 economists surveyed by Bloomberg News predict Stevens will keep rates unchanged tomorrow. Five forecast an increase to 5 percent.
Australia's currency has soared 31 percent in the past year as surging commodity shipments to China and India underpin investors' expectations that the RBA will raise rates.
The so-called Aussie reached $1.1012 on May 2, the highest since exchange controls were scrapped in 1983, and traded at $1.0749 at 4:52 p.m. in Sydney.
Unemployment has fallen to a two-year low and consumer price growth accelerated last quarter to the fastest pace since 2006 as companies including BHP Billiton Ltd., the world's biggest mining company, expand output.
Iron Ore, Coal
"Australia's terms of trade are likely to rise further in the June quarter, to be above the level assumed a few months ago -- and at their highest level in at least 140 years -- boosted in particular by high prices for iron ore and coal," the RBA said in its quarterly policy statement on May 6, referring to a measure of income earned from exports.
The yield on July cash-rate futures rose to 4.83 percent today in Sydney, while the rate on the August contract climbed to 4.88 percent. The chances of a July rate increase reached 32 percent from 20 percent on May 27, while the probability of an advance in August rose to 52 percent from 36 percent.
The current stretch is the fourth time since mid-2007 that Australia's central bank has held policy for five-straight meetings. The RBA raised rates in November 2010 and October 2009, after ending such a pause in October 2008 with a reduction in the benchmark.
Australia's economy shrank 1.2 percent in the first quarter, the most since 1991, as floods in the northeast slashed coal exports, a June 1 report showed. Even so, the currency rose and bonds fell the most in almost four months after the data as investors focused on final demand, the broadest measure of spending by government, consumers and businesses, which more than doubled from 0.6 percent in the final quarter of 2010.
Economy Rebounding
A day later, a government report showed April retail sales advanced 1.1 percent from a month earlier, the biggest jump since November 2009 and almost three times more than the median forecast in a Bloomberg News survey of economists.
In the May 6 review, the RBA forecast growth of 4.25 percent this year. Consumer prices will rise 3.25 percent over the period and core inflation will reach 3 percent, it said.
Expectations for consumer-price gains declined last week for a fourth week, the longest stretch since December, government debt markets show. The gap between yields on five- year inflation-linked notes and similar-maturity bonds that aren't indexed shrank to 2.97 percentage points today from 2.98 percentage points on June 3 and 3.01 percentage points on May 27, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
The so-called breakeven rate shows investor estimates for annual inflation over the lifetime of the bonds. The RBA aims to keep inflation in a range of 2 percent to 3 percent on average.
RBA's Pause
The central bank may also have cause to keep rates unchanged as global growth shows signs of weakening, including the economies of some of Australia's biggest trading partners, and Europe's debt crisis deepens.
China's manufacturing expanded at the slowest pace in nine months in May, a survey of companies released last week showed. India's growth in three months to March 31 was the weakest in five quarters, and Japan's industrial production rose less than economists forecast in April. Those three countries accounted for 51 percent of Australia's total exports so far this year.
Greece's fiscal crisis worsened enough for Moody's Investors Service last week to raise the probability of a default to 50 percent. Luxembourg's Jean-Claude Juncker, who leads the group of euro-area finance ministers, said June 3 that the European Union will approve a new aid plan for Greece.
U.S. stocks fell last week, sending the Dow Jones Industrial Average to its longest stretch of losses since 2004, after Labor Department figures showed payrolls rosed 54,000 in May, less than the 165,000 median forecast in a Bloomberg News survey, while the jobless rate climbed to 9.1 percent.
Europe Concerns
"Australian fixed income looks to have been the beneficiary of heightened European concerns and increased uncertainty over the U.S. outlook," said Su-Lin Ong, head of Australian economic and fixed-income strategy at RBC Capital Markets in Sydney.
The yield on the Australian government's benchmark 10-year note advanced to 5.234 percent on June 3 from 5.230 percent on May 27, snapping the longest stretch of declines since 2008. The rate declined 2 basis points to 5.21 percent today. The premium over similar-maturity Treasuries widened to 222 basis points, or 2.22 percentage point, from this year's low of 197 on March 3.
A May 31 central bank report showed loans provided by Australian banks and finance companies stagnated in April. Australian employers shed 22,100 workers in April, bringing to 26,300 the number of net new jobs created in first four months of 2011, the weakest for that period since 1999.
Australia's minimum wage was increased 3.4 percent to A$589.30 a week, the national workplace relations tribunal said June 3. The wage price index rose 3.8 percent in the first quarter from a year earlier, the government reported May 18.
Queensland's Exports
Stevens has held rates for five meetings to allow the economy in Queensland to recover from floods in January that Prime Minister Julia Gillard called the nation's most expensive natural disaster.
Further weighing on consumers, the government said last month it will end 23 years of spending growth to help ease inflation pressure and support the return to a budget surplus.
The gap between yields on corporate notes and sovereign debt widened one basis point last week to 162, paring this year's decline in the spread to 35 basis points, Bank of America Merrill Lynch indexes show.
In a statement after its May 3 policy decision, the RBA said it left rates unchanged as households continue to show caution in spending and borrowing, and are saving more.
Last week's GDP report showed Australia's household savings ratio climbed to 11.5 percent in the three months through March from 9.7 percent in the previous quarter, the highest level since 2009.

Snowball Items
I was just wondering whether the bonuses of these items at 20 stacks work properly...
in the last game i was playing warwick and bought myself a Sword of Occult and the Leviathan Armor. After ganking for a while i got 20 stacks on both items but i didnt noticed any difference. It didnt seemed as if i was moving 15% faster. The 15% damage reduction was too hard to notice because the enemy champions werent able to do **** against me anyway. Meijals Soulstealer is probably working, but does anyone know about the other items? |
Look at your movespeed with 20 stacks, see if it is higher than just your base + boots (use someone with nothing that boosts his move speed and no masteries/runes/items that boost it). Testing the DR is a little harder, it'd probably require a practice game. |

on March 4, 2014Somebody in security at National Review was asleep at the switch again and a crazy old coot wandered in and got to a terminal.
Anyway, last week, I felt a surge of bitterness. Why? I am disliking the current occupant of the White House more than ever. And, on seeing this house, I winced. And then I caught myself: "Come on, Jay. It's still the White House. Presidents come and go. This is a great and glorious country, with a constitution, separation of powers, regular elections . . . Don't have an our planes' attitude." Like others, I suppose, I have to remind myself of this from time to time. I think I'll need ever more frequent reminders in coming years.
The "our planes" bit comes from a barely coherent anecdote regarding the late Ron Silver who, as M. Berube once put it, was once a Democrat but, after 9/11, became outraged by Chappaquiddick. As to the rest, way to go, Jay. Whadda guy!

The BlogIn His Own WordsLooking back on Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger's historic homily.12:00 AM, Apr 21, 2005
• By HUGH HEWITT
THE MOST IMPORTANT STATEMENT Pope Benedict XVI may ever make was the one delivered before he was elected the successor to John Paul II. Just before he and his 114 colleagues entered the conclave, then Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger addressed the entire College of Cardinals, the whole Roman Catholic Church, and the entire world in a homily that was both brief and extremely profound. After this homily was concluded, no one among the cardinals, indeed no one with any capacity for thinking, could be mistaken about what Cardinal Ratzinger believed about the times in which we live and the role of Jesus Christ and the Roman Catholic Church. He finished his homily. The conclave began. And after less than a day and a half, he was elevated to the papacy. Can you say "mandate"? After this bold declaration, no cardinal can later claim that there was any doubt as to Benedict's beliefs or the direction in which he would take the Church. If he replaces any of the 48 cardinal-electors who are 74-years-or-older with new cardinals of like mind, no fair observer can claim that the Church is being pulled in a direction it did not intend. He did not propose a "transitional" papacy or a period of consolidation. It was a thunderous approval for a blunt and profound homily, and given that it was Benedict's declaration of purpose before he became pope, it is useful to reprint it here in its entirety for those who either missed it, or who, upon consideration, conclude it is worth reading very carefully indeed: CARDINAL JOSEPH RATZINGER HOMILY AT THE MASS FOR THE ELECTION OF THE ROMAN PONTIFF, April 18, 2005 At this hour of great responsibility, we hear with special consideration what the Lord says to us in His own words. From the three readings I would like to examine just a few passages which concern us directly at this time. The first reading gives us a prophetic depiction of the person of the Messiah--a depiction which takes all its meaning from the moment Jesus reads the text in the synagogue in Nazareth, when He says: "Today this scripture passage is fulfilled in your hearing" (Lk 4,21). At the core of the prophetic text we find a word which seems contradictory, at least at first sight. The Messiah, speaking of Himself, says that He was sent "To announce a year of favor from the Lord and a day of vindication by our God" (Is 61,2). We hear with joy the news of a year of favor: divine mercy puts a limit on evil--the Holy Father told us. Jesus Christ is divine mercy in person: encountering Christ means encountering the mercy of God. Christ's mandate has become our mandate through priestly anointing. We are called to proclaim--not only with our words, but with our lives, and through the valuable signs of the sacraments, the "year of favor from the Lord." But what does the prophet Isaiah mean when he announces the "day of vindication by our God"? In Nazareth, Jesus did not pronounce these words in His reading of the prophet's text--Jesus concluded by announcing the year of favor. Was this, perhaps, the reason for the scandal which took place after His sermon? We do not know. In any case, the Lord gave a genuine commentary on these words by being put to death on the cross. Saint Peter says: "He himself bore our sins in His body upon the cross" (1 Pe 2,24). And Saint Paul writes in his letter to the Galatians: "Christ ransomed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written, 'Cursed be everyone who hangs on a tree,' that the blessing of Abraham might be extended to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith." (Gal 3, 13s). The mercy of Christ is not a cheap grace; it does not presume a trivialization of evil. Christ carries in His body and on His soul all the weight of evil, and all its destructive force. He burns and transforms evil through suffering, in the fire of His suffering love. The day of vindication and the year of favor meet in the paschal mystery, in Christ died and risen. This is the vindication of God: He himself, in the person of the Son, suffers for us. The more we are touched by the mercy of the Lord, the more we draw closer in solidarity with His suffering--and become willing to bear in our flesh "what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ" (Col 1, 24). In the second reading, the letter to the Ephesians, we see basically three aspects: first, the ministries and charisms in the Church, as gifts of the Lord risen and ascended into heaven. Then there is the maturing of faith and knowledge of the Son of God, as a condition and essence of unity in the body of Christ. Finally, there is the common participation in the growth of the body of Christ--of the transformation of the world into communion with the Lord. |

Bigfoot In Arkansas
This is a True Story!Yeah, Bigfoot is real; doesn't matter what the naysayers say, if you ever see one, you'll know they're very real.
I was coming home from a jaunt to Tulsa with my Arkansas Hillbilly buddy; it was late at night. We were about a half hr. from Bentonville. I was leaning back, dozing, and suddenly my pal woke me up, frantic & excited, telling me to "Look At That!" I opened my eyes, still drowsy, and saw in the headlights something huge & hairy; he had put on the brights (pitch black outside), and the Bigfoot creature stopped 50-60 ft. ahead (near the lower side of the road, which was dirt cut into a high 45 degree slope). It seemed frozen like a dear, and I caught a look at it, and then Bam! it took off up the other side of the road, and ran up the slope, like nothing I've ever seen, except something out of special effects. It took that steep grade effortlessly & fast.
Me & my bud started jabberin', and I said, "Stop the Car"; and being wiser, he sort of chuckle-smarmed me, and said, (his voice shivvering), "No; no-o! I don't think that'd be a good idea."
I looked for it as we past by, but it was gone in the night (my bud, driving, had slowed to a near stop, and then sped up as Bigfoot scrambled up the hillside).
It was all hairy, stood entirely erect, was very wide in girth (not overweight, just thick-built), had full hair on the face, and had a head shaped human-like; it's nose was man-like, with no protruding lower-jar area like a gorilla or bear, which was what shocked me most. It appeared huge, seemingly 7 1/2 - 8 ft. tall.
Well, the windows were up, & I didn't smell anything unusual. Me & my bud (born & bred Arkansas hillbilly, from up Harrison-way) regularly hiked, spelunked, river-walked, or sometimes just fished, about once or twice a wk.. Anyway, I told a few people over the yrs., but it was dark night, and happened really quickly. This was many years ago. My hillbilly friend said he'd never seen anything like it in his many years spent out in the woods & hills. It didn't look anything like any of the pictures you can see on the internet.
They are quite real; you can be certain of that.
Great encounter!!too bad your buddie didnt want to get out even just to hear it crashing uo the hillside i heard that can traverse anyground at a fast pace . I never have seen or heard one but while i was elk hunting i scared a few bulls they darted through the forest and up a hill it made alot of noise would have been interesting to just hear that
Bar trail I have traversed many times The incline is on its way to being legal to traverse
I've had the same idea in my head. I'm pretty sure they are telepathic and there are even references to them in Sumerian texts. They don't call them Bigfoot's of course. They refer to them as a failed genetic experiment. A wild animal with extraterrestrial telepathy, one that could not be tamed.
Do you think it could be the "Fouke Monster?" Because I have always wanted to go there because of the true legend that a big bigfoot like creature roams around Fouke, Arkansas at whats called "Boggy Creek." The monster was known for attacking a family after it broke through a screen door while a woman was sleeping on the couch. It killed domesticated dogs, horses, pigs, and chickens, ect, ect. There is a movie ba<x>sed on it that came out in 1973. I've seen it. :)

It was a actual legend as of 1946, but it was first officially "reported" in the early 1970's. The witnesses describe the bigfoot with long dark hair, estimated 7 feet tall and in between 250-300 pounds. Some accounts have claimed that the creature runs with a hunched or slouched posture, swinging his arms as he runs. Everyone says that they noticed a horrible, nasty odor on his too. Reports have said it has bright red eyes about the size of silver dollars.

Maybe it was the Fouke Monster? :) :D What year did this happen when you saw it?
I used to be sceptical and not sure if bigfoot or sasquatch existed but, lately I have had this sense that he does exist and feel it is true that there is one.
