It's of no surprise that Seven Psychopaths Oscar nominee Martin McDonagh's madcap crime comedy won the People's Choice Midnight Madness Award at this year's Toronto International Film Festival. The film is a weird crowd-pleaser that's as much a blood-soaked macabre midnight movie as it is a self-aware satire on the very place that spawns all this madness: Hollywood.
The film features a series of darkly hilarious vignettes including a pair of bumbling hitmen (played by Boardwalk Empire costars Michael Pitt and Michael Stuhlbarg) and a series of revenge fantasies featuring distraught mourning parents like a Viet Cong soldier (Long Nguyen) and a Quaker (Harry Dean Stanton); and serial killer killers (Amanda Warren and a bunny-toting Tom Waits) that all hearken back to Pulp Fiction both Kill Bills and Inglorious Basterds respectively.
But don't call Seven Psychopaths a Tarantino ripoff. McDonagh somehow manages to conjure up all the best things about the fellow auteur's aesthetics (he like Tarantino also relies his muse again with Farrell) and remain in a league all his own. It's rare to find a writer who is able to effortlessly inject his own running internal monologue into their characters without it seeming self-indulgent but McDonagh pulls it off.

This little-known waterside oasis hides in plain sight among Bangkok's top tourist attractions such as the Grand Palace and Wat Pho. The accommodations are housed in three traditional Thai houses, constructed up-country then brought to the Chao Phraya riverbank for HRH Prince Chakrabongse in 1908. His heirs have lovingly maintained the buildings, making them comfortable for modern travelers with ornate beds piled with silk cushions, sparkling floors, and refined Thai details throughout. Each suite has a spacious balcony overlooking the well-tended tropical garden and the river. The Riverside Villa even boasts an unobstructed view of Wat Arun ("Temple of the Dawn") from the bedroom. Tall palms and tropical flowers encircle the swimming pool and there is a riverfront sala where scrumptious Thai meals are served upon request. A private tuk-tuk takes guests sightseeing around the old Rattanakosin quarter, and a motorized boat is available at the private pier. But don't expect typical hotel accoutrements here: Instead of business centers, plasma televisions, and concierges, you'll get smiling service that's more personal and less rushed.

The new outpost of Dream Hotel is a five-minute walk from both the subway and the Skytrain in Bangkok's central Sukhumvit district. Owner and society page regular Vikram Chatwal calls his New York–based boutique hotel brand Hautel Couture, though the Thai translation feels decidedly more casual than catwalk. Appropriately for a hotel whose name promises heavenly slumber, the emphasis in the 100 sleek white-walled rooms is the custom platform bed, which comes blanketed in layers of allergen-free goose down. A compact gym and a serviceable spa round out the standard amenities here, but ample desks and speedy free Wi-Fi sets the hotel above many bigger and better known competitors in the business sector. Comfort foods like pad thai have been early standouts among the fusion fare at Flava, but the recent arrival of young chef Daniel Roland Meier promises more refined dishes on the horizon.

From the vintage cars that can pick you up at the airport to the handbeaten copper tubs in each bathroom, Old Siam elegance permeates this colornial-style 12-room gem. The Taiwanese owner generously filled all three floors with more than 300 of his personal antiques, including a fully intact crocodile skin that inhabits the second-story landing. Bangkoks most romantic bedsfour-poster and covered in crisp Belgian linensare the centerpiece of the spacious suites. Snag room 302 for the best views of the pool and palms. Thoughtful complimentary conveniences like the minibar, Wi-Fi access, and even international phone calls make this a homey alternative to larger luxury hotels like the nearby Sukhothai and Four Seasons Bangkok. Trendsetting locals snuggle among the overstuffed couches and daybeds in Zheng He Lounge's warren of intimate rooms while the smiling bow-tied waiters serves European cheeses and charcuterie. A celadon-tiled courtyard pool has an old-world elegance and the traditional Thai sala offers the perfect spot for yoga or meditation.

Only the Sukhothai can come close to vying with the Four Seasons for the position of most luxurious in a city known for its ultraluxe lodgings. Even standard accommodations here start at a roomy 430 square feet, among the biggest in the city, and you'll find a mix of graceful teak furniture and cheery Thai silks, along with high-tech perks like 42-inch plasmas and Wi-Fi. The cabana rooms overlooking an inviting outdoor swimming pool and traditional lotus pond offer a sylvan escape from the city's frenetic pace. The elegant lobby is an equally civilized space where well-dressed guests and local businesspeople meet for tea or predinner cocktails to a soundtrack of live jazz and clinking crystal. On-site restaurants include the Spice Market, one of the best places in the city for high-end Thai food, and the more casual Shintaro, which serves healthy takes on Japanese fare. First-time visitors to Bangkok might want to opt for the Four Seasons for its ability to offer a taste of home while still incorporating distinctly Thai elements into nearly every facet of your stay. It's also an excellent pick if you plan to visit the chain's properties in Chiang Mai, the Golden Triangle, or Koh Samui, as staff will take care of transferring your baggage, confirming flights, and more. Traveling with the family? Bangkok-reared Zachary Kypfer, the 14-year-old teen concierge, can give you suggestions for kid-friendly activities.

This 380-room hotel benefits from the good karma of its next-door neighbor, the much-revered Erawan Shrine. The four-story atrium lobby can feel frenetic on busy days but even standard guest roomsquite spacious at 430 square feethave a relaxing vibe thanks to coconut-shell headboards and extra-fluffy duvets. In-room Wi-Fi, still a rarity among Asia's large business hotels, is among the fastest in Bangkok. Higher-level rooms include use of the Club Lounge with its views of Lumpini Park and the racetrack. But one of the top reasons to stay here is the I.Sawan spa tucked away from the noise of Bangkok among the gardens on the hotel's fifth floor. Designed by starchitect Tony Chi, the 75,000-square-foot facility has nine treatment bungalows, a hair salon, nail bar, and free-form swimming pool. For true indulgence, you can book your entire stay in one of six sprawling cottages, with en suite treatment options and fridges stocked with fresh fruit juices and organic snacks. Those who prefer more gustatorial indulgence can get their fill at the eight on-site restaurants, including the Erawan Tea Room, whose signature chocolate-banana mud pie complements an authentic Thai menu served in an old-world colonial setting.

The JW Marriott is by far the best value in Bangkok. Rates as low as $200 a night will buy you one of the 441 richly paneled guest rooms with high-tech toys like the Remote Jack Packwhich interconnects MP3 players, digital cameras, and laptops to a 32-inch flat-screen televisionas well as a team of IT concierges to guide you through the process. Even better is the prime Sukhumvit location along Bangkok's Skytrain, particularly important as bell staff sometimes fail to assist non-Thai speakers in communicating addresses to cabdrivers. The rest of the service, however, proves impeccable. The 24-hour business center capably handles everything from faxing to locating an attorney. Friendly concierges go out of their way to arrange tours and dinner reservations. Those homesick for American fare can dine at the on-site New York Steakhouse, or grab breakfast at the Bangkok Baking Company, which is rightly famous for its fluffy croissants and homemade chocolate truffles. The plush lounge chairs at the outdoor swimming pool are an ideal place to unwind after a day of sightseeing, as is the on-site spa.

Le Méridien's recent efforts to integrate culture into its urban hotels proved worthwhile at this tower in Bangkok's Silom neighborhood. One dramatic feat: the superimposing of Ralph Gibson's quirky 1960s photograph Man with Poodle onto the hotel's double-height glass entrance. Room keys also serve as complimentary passes to the Thailand Creative & Design Center, a cutting-edge art space and library. Dark-wood finishes, etched mirrors, and a space-optimizing bathroom create a modern ambience in the 282 rooms, though the beds don't feel as plush as they look. Thai sculptures as well as floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook gilded Buddhist temple spires add just the right indigenous touch. Room service includes better-than-usual breakfast dishes (think goat cheese Gruyère custard and buckwheat crêpes). Be sure to check out Bamboo Chic, the stark floor-lit lounge serving noodles and sushi.

Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok, is one of the oldest deluxe hotels in Bangkok, serving the rich and famous (Princess Diana, Nicolas Cage, and Elizabeth Taylor have all rested their heads here) for more than 130 years. Yet it's completely up to date and right next to the Skytrain. Its 358 rooms and 35 suites feature such chichi luxuries as private butler service and Bose CD players, and all rooms have at least side river views. The furniture is swathed in Thai silks and backed by burnished teak—except in the Garden Wing rooms where the style is neo-colonial. For champagne wishes and literary dreams, there's the Somerset Maugham suite, with sultry four-poster beds, gold-legged stools, and fuchsia pillows. The hotel also houses some of Bangkok's finest restaurants, including Lord Jim's, where seafood is served riverside, and the more formal Le Normandie, where both the service and menu are high French. For diners having a Western jones, there's a wood-fired Italian pizza oven and an outdoor barbecue joint on a terrace by the river (closed from May to September for the rainy season). In November 2006, the Ayurvedic Penthouse spa debuted with classical treatments like Udwatanam, a rejuvenating dry herbal massage. There's also a terrific cooking school.

Not far from the Skytrain and subway, the Metropolitan, sister to the ultrahip London hotel, strives to be the epitome of modernism, with its Mies van der Rohe–style façade and staff dressed in black and white Comme des Garçons uniforms. Once in the lobby—all cream and dark Makha wood—the sequenced mood lighting establishes the theatrical ambience. The 171 bedrooms avoid obvious Asian references in favor of clean lines, natural lighting, stone bathrooms, and handwoven Thai silk curtains. High speed Internet, flat-screen TVs, DVD players, and (naturally) yoga mats are all included, as well as the occasional artistic flourish by local up-and-comer Natee Utarit. Michelin-starred chef David Thompson serves authentic Thai curries and kanom jeen at Nahm, while over at the Met Bar, the DJs compete with the martini mixologists for the attention of stylish guests. A different West-reinterprets-East vibe reigns at Glow, a second restaurant where the menu is organic and mainly raw, and at Como Shambhala, a holistic spa that offers aromatherapy and reflexology treatments, urban retreat packages, a yoga center, a lap pool, and steam rooms.

But this is no throwback: There are flat-screen TVs, powerful showers with solar-heated water, and free Wi-Fi and computers in each room (something the inn's more luxurious competitors don't provide). But the key here is the personal touch: Breakfastrice-flour hotcakes doused in sweet coconutis made on an old-fashioned charcoal stove, and Jirayu "Joey" Tuliyanont will personally escort you on a nightlife tour of nearby hippie-chic Khao San Road. One of the few green hotels in Bangkok, the inn has sensors that shut down lights and appliances when guests leave their rooms, and all water is heated with solar energy. The owners share this sense of social responsibility with guests, offering them the opportunity on their bill to make contributions (matched by the hotel) to one of four charities focused on animals and children at risk.

Another of Bangkok's riverside bastions of luxury, this Peninsula stares down its rivals—the Shangri-La and the Oriental—across the Chao Phraya from the Thonburi side. Of course, that's the Peninsula's one drawback: everything worth seeing in Bangkok lies on the other side of the river. The hotel makes up for this failing by outstripping the Oriental in sheer style (that, and ferrying guests across the river all day from 6 a.m. until midnight, a lovely way to commute). It's also not far from the Skytrain. It was designed so that all 370 rooms and suites get the coveted water view, especially valuable at night when the city skyline is lit up. The spacious rooms have a distinctly Asian flair, right down to the contemporary art. Even the least expensive rooms have teak foyers, silk-covered walls, and marble bathrooms kitted out with mod fixtures and TVs. The 2006 addition of a spa gives guests the option of Thai, European and Ayurvedic-inspired treatments. Among the five restaurants, Jesters is tops for food—haute Pacific Rim (think wild Australian crocodile served up ceviche-style)—but its modern style can't hold a candle to the ambience of Thiptara, where guests enjoy traditional, home-style Thai dishes like grilled prawns dipped in tamarind sauce under salas (traditional, open-air, pagodalike teak structures) with live khim music in the background.

Stretched out along the banks of the Chao Phraya River with easy Skytrain access, the Shangri-La ranks among the world's top luxury hotels. The decor is mostly modern, though there are some nods to old-school Asia in the wall art and standing sculptures. Of the 799 rooms, those in the posh Krungthep Wing, with balconies overlooking tropical gardens and the river, are on average larger than ones in the Shangri-La Wing. Guests in this exclusive part of the hotel also enjoy extras like 24-hour butler service, complimentary pressing (two garments per guest), and evening cocktails and canapés delivered to their door nightly. Facilities include two pools, outdoor tennis and squash courts, a health club and the recently expanded Chi spa offering Thai massage and holistic healing. Among the multiple cafés and restaurants—specializing variously in Chinese, Italian, Japanese, and international cuisines—Salathip stands out for its traditional Thai food served in a little house by the river. Try the Yam Som-O, a typical Thai creation of shredded chicken, pomelo, and water chestnuts that chef Sumalee Boon-ek sprinkles with grated coconut and lime juice and serves in a Pomelo shell.

It could have been another soulless corporate addition to the commercial hotel market, but in spite of its size and block architecture, this contemporary high-rise skillfully evokes an authentic sense of Thailand. A handful of heroics set it apart, including the modern art program, which stocks the hotel with 1,500 paintings, sculptures, and bewitching collages by local artists. All 303 rooms face the courtyard's palm gardens and free-form pools, screening guests from the city's hum. Walls are decorated in padded Thai silk, some with gilded accent panels depicting rural life and lotus flower designs, and rooms are wired for video on demand, Internet radio, and iPod connectivity. The seventh-floor spa is a haven of Asian wellness with natural herbal products, while a well-appointed gym has killer cityscape views. The hotel's crowning glory is the restaurant Sra Bua, by Danish chef Henrik Yde-Andersen, who scored a Michelin star for his molecular Thai cooking in Copenhagen. The dishes are undoubtedly Thai but highly experimental; don't miss the gang dang, a frozen red curry with lobster salad (better than it sounds). The hotel is already popular with the Asian business set, but leisure travelers will be equally well served here, not least for the unbeatable downtown location beside Siam Paragon, the city's finest shopping mall.

"Sukhothai" means "dawn of happiness," and the Sukhothai period (1238–1376) was the golden age of Thai art and architecture. The Zen atmosphere at this refined 210-room hotel draws on both definition and history. Low pavilions, designed in a clean, angular style that would have impressed the staunchest Bauhaus devotees, are separated by pools with lotus flowers floating on the surface and tropical gardens. Accommodations are equally tranquil with Thai silk fabrics in airy silvers, golds and greens, teak paneling, and huge mirrored bathrooms. All 82 suites are technologically tricked-out with iPod connections, Wi-Fi, and flat-screen LCD TV's. The hotel's well-regarded Celadon restaurant specializes in Thai cuisine, like Yam Huaplee, a banana blossom salad that the chef tosses with poached prawns and serves with a side of jasmine rice. In 2006, designer Ed Tuttle came back to give the Colonnade restaurant, known for its international and Asian cuisine, a modern facelift with high ceilings, smooth lines, and large windows overlooking a shallow pool with stupas. There are also international and Italian restaurants on-site and the Lumpini station subway is within walking distance.

Even the haters have to agree that the Penguins are paying some unreal hockey and that Crosby is looking like the kind of player you thought you'd never see in the NHL again.
Nine games is a long time not to lose a game of hockey. And a month is a long time to go without missing out on a goal or assist. Just ask the stache.
Overall, Sid has 46 points in 28 games. Brother Steven is back at the compound, pressing a crease into the front of his dress pants and rereading the cult manifesto.
People are saying that the 9-game winning streak could extend, what with the next two teams the Pens play being the Devils and the Leafs.
Granted, the Devils are terrible this year. And the Maple Leafs organization is just the embodiment of Russian roulette for the Penguins. Thank Curry it's not a Friday or Saturday night game in Canada or the haters would be out and about.
Still, these teams probably aren't going to lie down the way Columbus did. "Beat the teams you're supposed to beat" is a good adage when it doesn't make you cocky. Luckily, we don't perceive the Pens being cocky. This is the attitude that got them so far in the playoffs in 2008 and 2009. We can be optimistic that we're going to see a team with its shit together that didn't spend the entire evening previous to the game watching Teen Mom and hitting the bong.
Still, streaks don't last forever. 82-game season and we're not even 30 in.
And the whole business with the Washington Capitals hasn't even busted a load in our faces yet.
Philly's playing the Isles right now. 1pm Sunday start, eesh. Today, we are the biggest Isles fans. Because if the Islanders win, the Penguins keep their standing atop the division, conference, and League. It's not like we can hope for a lot. Islanders are 5-14-5. But you have to win some of them. We just looked at their stats, their leading point-getter among forwards, and leading goal-scorer, is. . .

Well, in the end we do the best with what we have, resources and people's skills alike. I know nothing about Python. C isn't my strongest suit anymore and I could probably manage Perl nicely. Ideally there would be a GUI front-end something slapped up with QT Designer or something, who knows. That's probably running a little ahead of things, but we should look into that too and plan for it. Let me just rehash as I see how things might work (in case there are new people here, or old people with bad memories). A UI program would interface with a daemon type application that runs in the background. This could be a process running on the local machine, or on the remote machine. This UI (command line based, or graphic based makes no difference) would interface with this background process and make things happen. The way I envision it, the userinterface is configured to know about machines it has access to control. You have an update for a program like coreutils, you select all the machines you want updated, and the UI establishes connections to the servers and sends the commands to download, build, and install the new coreutils package. There are some questions that need answering of course. Do we stick with XML like we use in nALFS for profiles or do away with it. Who does the parsing: the client or the daemon who is doing the actual installing. The daemon could be the dumb app: it receives commands to run to get the job done. The client figures out what those commands should be. This makes it possible, and easy, for the user (us humans) to make changes since you simply cannot install every package the exact same way on every machine. But let me back-up. That's all future talk. If we are to do this, we have to decide on the backend mechanisms first. Since remote admin is desired, a TCP based interface is necessary. A client logs into IP X on Port Y. Then it needs to authenticate itself. That's going to be our step one. A password of some sort would probably be the simplest and we can worry about security (ie: man-in-the-middle attacks) later I imagine. So once the connection is established remote alfsd is ready to receive instructions. How are those going to be sent and received. That would be task number two. SOAP was suggested in the past as a possible good fit for this. We could always make up our own protocol. Send a start-command-list type string. Then everything that follows could be a plain old shell script. End with an end-command-list string, send an execute-command-list and wait for feedback. Just some food for thought. We don't have to worry about the programming language yet. Let's figure out the lower level issues: logging in to a process running either local or remote and authenticate to it. -- Gerard Beekmans /* If Linux doesn't have the solution, you have the wrong problem */

Earthen mound in the form of a bird or animal (e.g, bear, deer, turtle, buffalo), found in the northern central U.S., especially the Ohio River valley.

Most notable ancient Indian culture of east-central North America. It flourished circa 200 BC–AD 500, chiefly in the Illinois and Ohio river valleys. (The name derives from a U.S. farm where the first site was explored.) The Hopewell Indians built earthen mounds for enclosure, burial, religious rites, and defense. Hopewell villages lay along rivers and streams. The inhabitants raised corn and possibly beans and squash but still relied upon hunting and gathering. They produced pottery and metalwork. Trade routes were evidently well developed. After AD 400 the distinctive features of the Hopewell culture gradually disappeared. Seealso Woodland culture.

The lightest shade was way too orange on me. It was a little too dark but mostly just so so orange. It is unbelievable really why a very fair shade would be so orange. I would say this foundation is a bit hydrating to the skin but it's just not very good at all in my opinion. I totally agreed with everything madeupmary the reviewer just before me said about this foundation. I suggest you skip this one and continue looking. I use to trust clinique products until the superprimer that is nothing but silicone broke me out. Silicone is not good for the skin and I am very disappointed in clinique and I no longer trust their products. I am loving all things nars lately.
Hated this foundation. I have been looking for a new foundation and I loved it in the shop. I wanted a long lasting foundation that was good for dry skin, not an easy ask. I was worried that the colour, the lightest shade was too dark but the sales assistant said there were no lighter shades and was quite pushy, saying how nice it looked on my skin. I wish I'd asked for a sample as when I applied it myself it looked very dark for me, especially in natural light. It did last longer than the average foundation but I didn't like the smell of the foundation, it smelt like paint and felt very heavy on my skin, even when blended with a sponge. It just goes to prove that a more expensive foundation isn't always best!
I wore Repair Wear for years before Clinique changed the formula. The "new" Repair Wear, which I tried when it first came out, was a big disappointment.
Did not find a good color match. SA tried a couple of shades closest to my skin tone, and each one oxidized within minutes. Burnt orange looks pretty on a leaf, but not on a face.
Foundation settled into fine lines, didn't feel hydrating, finish looked blotchy (not due to uneven skin tone, but the foundation) and coverage minimal.
Noticed women on MakeupAlley are very pleased with this foundation. Glad when one finds their HG foundation, but it didn't work well on my skin at all.

I am nearing the end of my second bottle of this lovely foundation. I have flirted now and then with others (Mac, Paula Dorf, most recently Boots No. 7), but I always seem to return to Clinique. I started many years ago with their pore-minimizer formula (the original one that was a powder suspension) - great for my then-oily skin. Now, my skin is dry and sun-damaged, and Repairwear makes it look much better.
What I like:
- texture makes it easy to apply with a brush
- blends well, doesn't dry too fast
- compatible with my moisturizer
- medium coverage hides my lines and uneven pigmentation
- the way my skin feels after wearing it all day
What I wish I could change:
- a little pricey
- packaging, wish it had a pump dispenser

I got a sample of this in my search to find a few foundations I will re buy.I have sooo many just ok okay drugstore foundations that I usually throw away almost ful.they worked fine for a bit but I wanted more so ive now moved on to "higher end" in hopes that I can find something worthy of full use&a repeat buy (2bad the nearest makeup counter is 8hrs away..or it could be good depending on how u look at it)This is gonna be a buy for me&I can actually see myself using it a lot.it covers nicely, the color I was matched to was#4 wich actually was too light when I got the sample but my summer tan faded a lot quicker then usual&now it matches really well not as good a match as nars wich is the only foundation ive gotten a perfect match in(sadley I had 2 return that as it found my pores)but better then most.this leaves a nice glow that I was looking for without being shimmery or too oily looking, just kinda a natural fresh face.it lasted well, all day for me not DW lasting but I still think 6hrs+ is pretty good i didnt set with powder (i hate powder, clings for me)&no primer just sum lotion overall for me this makes a well lasting everyday foundation.it even kept my dry nose corners from poping up midday.i look forward to adding it to my rotation..

I have sensitive dry-combination skin which is prone to hormonal breakouts.
I have been testing this foundation for 1 week in 4.0 which is too dark but it was the only colour which Clinique has in a sample (always very grateful to Clinique for providing testers and samples to clients because for people like me with sensitive skin, it's really the only way to buy).
Application - I have tried using my fingers, a foundation brush, Elizabeth Arden Beauty Blender and a sponge both wet and dry. The wet sponge (white triangles) worked the best and the EA Beauty Blender, the worst.
Base - I don't like using primers because I am yet to find one that does not break me out. I have tested this foundation with the following 4 moisturisers:
Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+ (does not last as long, foundation goes on sheer, oily T)
Clinique Moisuture Surge Extended Thirst Relief (goes on perfect, satin smooth finish, lasts all day without touch up but some small breakouts)
Estee Lauder Hydrationist for Dry Skin (slight shine in T zone but it's comfortable, goes on well)
Olay Complete for Sensitive Skin (goes on well but does not last, not hydrating enough so oily T and drier cheeks and forehead)
Bioderma Hydrabio Riche (goes on sheer similar to DDML+ and does not last the whole days - starts to shine in the T zone after 4 hours)
Powder to Set
Almost Powder Makeup (with brush not as effective as with a dry round sponge which is firm) - incredibly lasting power when using Moisture Surge has the base - 14 hours!
Blended face power (with brush) beauty matte finish with moisture surge which lasts but not as long as setting with Almost Powder and comes off with oilier or dryer moisturising bases.
So far, I have not had any major breakouts with this. The only breakouts seem to be with the Clinique Moisture Surge combo when I use Almost Powder Makeup to set it. I am going to keep testing to see whether it's the Moisture Surge which is breaking me out or the Almost Powder.
## EDIT## unfortunately after prolong use, I have broken out so now I just use it for special occasions. Removing 1 star.

So far, i am very happy with the results i've experienced with this makeup. After using for almost a month my skin feels moisturized and is glowing. So far, i have not had any breakouts. Also, i really like the packaging because it is easy to dispense and is great for fitting in my makeup bag in my purse. All in all, i give it a 4/5

I am in my 40's and a grease ball. I have been on a quest for a foundation to wear this summer. I initially thought that a long wearing matt foundation was the way to go. I tried Lancome 24hour which is pretty good (bad color match though), Bobbi Brown (too yellow), Chanel Perfection Lumiere ( little too pink) which was good, however I felt like it accentuated some minor imperfections in skin texture. A friend that works at Lord and Taylor suggested that I try this foundation. I was very skeptical at first. I like many Clinique products, but their foundations have never impressed me. This one is great. I was matched to #4 which I originally thought was too dark, but it seems to blend and give my face some life. I think the shade I was wearing was too light in retrospect. I have been wearing this since Sunday and I have received numerous compliments. It has a slightly dewy finish that just looks glowy and young. This foundation really adhered to the skin despite its dewy finish. I did need to lightly powder to set and blot numerous times. Despite the blotting maintenance, I love the look this foundation provides. It is also supposed to minimize lines. I don't have many facial lines, but it did appear to blur them. This would be a perfect foundation for someone with dry to normal skin.

I just bought a bottle to give it a try. They put me in color # 5 which I thought initially was a tad cool but after looking at all of the colors they offer, this was probably the warmest tone and the best fit for my LLL NC 25 skin tone. It does run more neutral than I'm used to but it doesn't look bad.
My skin has been dry lately and I'm pleased to say this has felt and looked good on my dry skin. It looks natural and glowy without obvious mica or sparkles. It does not emphasize lines. It has not caused breakouts or irritation or my rosacea to flare which are huge issues for me.
Coverage is moderate to full if you build it up. Wear is tenacious. I can blow my nose and it takes at least 3 times before I have to rebuild coverage around my nose. Foundation is still on my face at night and I definitely need to use an oil cleanser followed by another cleanser and then a toner to make sure this foundation is completely gone.
Color does oxidize a tad but it stays truer depending on if I limit how many layers I put under it. I was really dry so I was putting 2 moisturizers under a sunscreen and then my foundation and I found my foundation was not wearing as well so lesson learned.
This formulation does contain soy, which I'm allergic to, in the way of lecithin but it is far down the ingredient list. So far it has not been as issue for me. This is also fragrance free.
I don't even mind the big open bottle neck. It's kind of old school and reminds me of how foundation used to come when I started wearing makeup. I find the liquid comes out easily without a pump and I feel like I will be able to get the very last drop. And sometimes with a pump, if they're not calibrated just right, I end up wasting some makeup. So it's not a big deal to me not having a pump but I bet Clinique will have a pump available to purchase separately soon.
Price is fairly reasonable compared to the average price of 60+ dollars nowadays for foundations (& L'Oreal is charging almost 20 bucks for drugstore)so $34 doesn't seem too bad. Therefore I'm keeping my fingers crossed this product continues to work for me.

Apparently most of the leaders of this gang knew McIntire. One was a learned professor, another an ex-president of our favorite Darwinian organization, the "Mensa Collection." This genius suggested the victim, McIntire's stepdaughter, might have been angry playing second fiddle to McIntire. (Is a penis-envy charge also possible?)
To say that McIntire must be a "public" person to be newsworthy is to say that 99 percent of the human population is of no importance to journalism. To say that his story must be something never covered as far back as Sophocles is to reduce this pool to almost nothing. Every story involves the same things: greed, love, hate, courage, betrayal, and so on. To say that "Admired in Life, Reviled in Death" had no human-interest value is astonishing in itself.
To those who complained that no mystery was solved, I suggest Agatha Christie. To the rest of us with memory of this event, a lot of vital information was provided. The police hinted at something terrible, but left everyone hanging. Sounds like human interest with news value to me.What could explain this bizarre event?
Well, now we have a hint. When McIntire was seeking out ever more selective cliques within cliques within Mensa, he should have focused more on Joe McCarthy, who was a lying, drunken hypocrite condemning "un-American" values. McIntire, in a more private way, was showing off his knowledge of civilization while doing something that violates the very idea.
As to New Times being the Star, no less than Ted Koppel complimented the tabloids on some of their reporting during the O.J. trial. But that assumes New Times is now into celebrity worship and fashion coverage. Charging New Times with yellow journalism is as easy as McCarthy challenging patriotism.
Yes, it's unfortunate that the innocent family of Alex McIntire was subjected to this, but if that's the standard -- never hurt innocent friends and family under any circumstances -- almost all investigative reporting would be wiped out. Innocents are always involved.
The ruling-class Mensa clowns and the genteel professor types can be aghast at David Villano's article and at New Times for publishing it, but please answer this: Do you think McIntire, in all his intelligence, would feel so smart knowing he'd been exposed to the people he conned? And what about those defenders of his who were conned? This type of exposure threatens their image of themselves and their right to feel superior.
Let's not be faux Wilsonian by making the world safe for (intelligent?) child molesters.

A King on Earth and in Heaven
Adolph was great down here, and he'll be great up there: We want to thank Tristram Korten for covering the untimely and tragic death of Adolph King ("One Less Good Man," October 12). It is shameful that a prominent and important figure in the black community can pass on virtually unnoticed by the mainstream media. Many loyal customers and friends agree that such a death in the white or Hispanic community would have received the attention it deserved.
Adolph was a successful businessman, family man, and friend who not only meant a great deal to those who patronized the King's Stable, he meant the world to his family, friends, and even his employees. He provided us with jobs and genuine friendship. He gave his community a safe, decent, and professional place where mature blacks can gather, meet, dance, and unwind together. Adolph took a corner location and made it into a real neighborhood bar. He took his job seriously, he did it well, and we all miss him so very much.
He made the Stable a second home, not only for him but for all the regulars and occasional customers looking for a nice place to have an old-fashioned good time. While the King's Stable is open again for business, most of us still can't believe Adolph is gone. He put his mark on this place in a way no one can ever forget. His hard work paid off, and his vision of a great establishment was realized in his lifetime.
Now Adolph has moved on to his new home, and we know he is running things up there just like he ran things down here. We are consoled by the legacy he left us and in knowing that he is now in a better place. And every night we can almost hear him shouting from his new home the same thing he used to shout nightly from the home he made here: "God, I love this place!"

USC Football Players Everson Griffen and Jordan Campbell Arrested In Nantucket This Weekend
(Hmm, which ones are they?)
I've gotten a bunch of emails about this but I couldn't piece it together until today. First I was told Troy Polamalu got arrested in Nantucket this weekend and then it switched to Rey Maualuga. Obviously the first emailer didn't know shit about football, but finally I got the right info. It was Everson Griffen that got arrested who is Todd McShay's 3rd highest rated defensive end in the country. Not only that but supposedly he got arrested at Tom First's house as in Tom from Nantucket Nectors after partying at Nobadeer beach all day. Anyway let this be a lesson to all big time football players. Don't expect to come into Stoolville and get arrested and fly under the radar. Although truth be told, I don't really care about this part of the story. I just want to see which chick he banged before it happened. I bet she's smoking hot. Oh and Jordan Campbell from USC got arrested as well, but I guess he's a scrub. Although to his credit it looks like he gave the Nantucket police a fake name as they have him listed as Jordan Moore.
Kudos to our tipster..

The bcr/abl fusion in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) creates a chimeric tyrosine kinase with dramatically different properties than intact c-abl. In P210 bcr/abl, the bcr portion includes a coiled-coil oligomerization domain (amino acids 1-63) and a grb2-binding site at tyrosine 177 (Tyr177) that are critical for fibroblast transformation, but give variable results in other cell lines. To investigate the role of the coiled-coil domain and Tyr177 in promoting CML, 4 P210 bcr/abl-derived mutants containing different bcr domains fused to abl were constructed. All 4 mutants, Delta(1-63) bcr/abl, (1-63) bcr/abl, Tyr177Phe bcr/abl, and (1-210) bcr/abl exhibited elevated tyrosine kinase activity and conferred factor-independent growth in cell lines. In contrast, differences in the transforming potential of the 4 mutants occurred in our mouse model, in which all mice receiving P210 bcr/abl-expressing bone marrow cells exclusively develop a myeloproliferative disease (MPD) resembling human CML. Of the 4 mutants assayed, only 1-210 bcr/abl, containing both the coiled-coil domain and Tyr177, induced MPD. Unlike full-length P210, this mutant also caused a simultaneous B-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). The other 3 mutants, (1-63) bcr/abl, Tyr177Phe bcr/abl, and Delta(1-63) bcr/abl, failed to induce an MPD but instead caused T-cell ALL. These results show that both the bcr coiled-coil domain and Tyr177 are required for MPD induction by bcr/abl and provide the basis for investigating downstream signaling pathways that lead to CML.

Keep Your Hybrids, I'll Save Gas This Way
Some favor hybrids to save gas, but I prefer an alternative: a higher-fuel-economy trim of a standard gas-powered car and a manual transmission. In my case, I was testing the 2011 Chevrolet Cruze Eco, but other carmakers make similar models.
I took the Cruze Eco on a 199.7-mile road trip up to Wisconsin from Chicago, leaving around 6 a.m. and returning around 1:30 p.m. The early leg was almost traffic-free, while the return trip was more stop-and-go. In the end, I got 46.4 mpg with an average speed of 46.3 mph. That's well over 40 mpg in not-so-conservative highway driving. And I didn't drive as economically as I could have. The Cruze Eco with a manual transmission gets an EPA-estimated 28/42 mpg city/highway.
Why do I like this type of vehicle more than a hybrid like a Hyundai Sonata Hybrid or Toyota Prius?
The driving experience is better. There are no grabby brakes, huge batteries in the trunk, lag in power to pass or weird trees growing on the dashboard readout. It's just a car. That you drive.
Also, I'd want to test the Cruze Eco against a hybrid in the city (most of my driving was on the highway) for a more thorough mileage evaluation, but I still think anybody who wants to conserve gas should have to put some time in this kind of car.
You become a part of what the car is doing; you have to pay attention to when you shift so you get the best fuel economy (there's a light to help you). You're not watching a dashboard display or seeing a number flash on the dashboard with "instant mpg." You're physically engaged in saving fuel and you're also engaged in driving.
Maybe that type of engagement would make for safer roads, too.

Technology provides property information
Posted By Margaret Jackson On April 15, 2010 @ 11:30 am In Uncategorized | No Comments
Perry & Co. is launching two new technologies that will allow consumers get the information they want about real estate listings.
Property details such as price, bedrooms, baths and square footage can be instantly sent to a cell phone through a Quick Response (QR) Code or through a text messaging service.
Potential buyers can get all the information they want with a photo of a QR EZCode or by texting the word NOW to 59559 with the property's address. Property information will be sent back to the potential buyer's cell phone. The text messaging service will work on any property in the multiple listing service, not just Perry & Co. listings.

Blue Springs, Missouri
(KMOV.com) -- If it is not a star, a planet or a plane then what is that strange light in the night sky? That is what residents of Blue Springs, Missouri are asking.
For the last couple weeks a strange light that flickers between the colors of red, green and blues has been seen in the night sky over western Missouri.
Margie Kay of the Missouri U.F.O network has claimed she has seen two lights.
"I see red and green in this one. And in the one behind me I see red, green and blue. I don't think it's a planet at this point. I don't know what it is," said Kay.
One resident says she saw the light drop in the sky but doesn't know how many feet. She goes on to say it has stayed stationary since then.
Since no one can currently explain the mysterious light, it is being called a U.F.O.

Ingredients & Description
Saf Slim is powered by SAFActive78, a proprietary blend of safflower oil. As demonstrated in the Ohio State University study, safflower oil is superior in attacking belly fat.
SafSlim, powered by SAFActive78, is the first-ever solution to target unsightly and health-threatening OMENTUM fat, the fat that accumulates around the belly region.
This patent-pending formula features a proprietary blend of non-GMO, expeller pressed, high-linoleic saffl ower oil.
In a major university study on obese, diabetic women, the active ingredient in SafSlim significantly reduced belly fat 6.3% on average in just 16 weeks.
This belly fat omega has been shown to activate hormones, such as adiponectin, to help mobilize stubborn dormant midsection fat, curb appetite and improve insulin sensitivity.
Directions: Take 1 tbsp twice daily before meals. Delicious by the spoonful or mixed into beverages, shakes or yogurt. Shake well. Refrigerate after opening. For best results, take for a minimum of 16 weeks and use in conjunction with regular exercise and a diet free of high-glycemic refined carbohydrates and trans fats.

Woodlice are quite harmless and in fact beneficial in their proper habitat by promoting the breakdown of dead vegetation and organic matter in the soil. They normally live outdoors but shun the light by hiding under stones, logs, loose bark, leaf-litter etc., or in hollow tree-trunks - almost anywhere that is fairly damp. However, they frequently come indoors and may take up residence inside buildings, surviving in any dark, damp places they can find. When large numbers of woodlice are found indoors, perhaps clustered in wall crevices or under skirting boards etc., it is always worth checking for excessive dampness in these places - just in case there is a structural problem with the damp proofing or damp course. Woodlice are easily controlled with insecticides or silica dust.

hH8 VALERIUS.
VALERIUS, artists. 1. Of Ostia. The architect of the covered theatre erected at Rome for the games of Libo. (Plin. H. N. xxxvi. 15. s. 24.) Pliny does not say which Libo he refers to ; but it is likely to have been L. Scribonius Libo, who in his curule aedileship, with his colleague C. Atilius Serranus, first celebrated the Megalesia as ludi scenici, b.c. 193. [LiBO, scribonius, No. 3].
2. M. valerius M. p. artema, an architect, Avho is mentioned in an extant inscription. (Sillig, Cat. Artif. Append, s. v. Artema ; R. Rochette, Lettre a M. Schorn, p. 422, 2d. ed.)
3. D. valerius L. f., described as Vascula-rius, that is, a maker of bronze vases, in t\vo inscriptions found at Tusculum, of which place he Avas a native or a citizen, for in one of the inscriptions he is styled Tusculan. (Muratori, Tlies. vol. i. p. xii. 12, p. xiv. 6 ; R. Rochette, I. c.)
4. C. valerius anemestione C. lus, is the form in Avhich a Cordovan inscription gives the name of an artist in metal, Avho made the em bossed vessels called anaglypta. He is styled in the inscription Caetotor Anaglytarius, but there can be no doubt that the last Avord is an error for Anagtyptarius. (Muratori, Tlies. vol. ii. p. cmlxxxi. 9 ; R. Rochette, 1. c.) [P. S.]
VALERIUS AEDITUUS. In the ninth chapter of the nineteenth book of the Noctes At- ticae a certain rhetorician Julianus, Avhen challenged to point out anything in the Latin language worthy of being compared with the graceful effusions of Anacreon, and other bards of that class among the Greeks, quotes two short epigrams by Valerius Aedituus, Avho is simply described as " veteris poetae," one by Porcius Licmius, and one by Quintus Catulus. Upon these collectively A. Gel- lius pronounces " mundius, venustius, limatias, pres- sius, Graecumve Latinumve nihil quidquam reperiri puto." They unquestionably merit high commend ation, but are so evidently derived from some Greek source, that they could scarcely be adduced Avith fairness as specimens of the Roman lyric muse. Judging from the language and versification we may assign them to a period about b. c. 100. (Gell. xix. 9 ; Anthol. Lat. iii. 242, 243, ed. Burmann, or Nos. 27, 28, ed. Meyer.) [ W. R.]
VALERIUS ASIATICUS. 1. P. valerius asiaticus, consul suffectus under Caligula, but in what year is uncertain, and a second time consul under Claudius in A. d. 46 Avith M. Junius Silanus. Valerius Avas a friend of Caligula, but, having received a gross insult from him, rejoiced at his death. When the praetorian troops, after the assassination of the emperor, were seeking for the murderer in order to wreak their vengeance on him, Valerius stood up in a conspicuous place and exclaimed " Would that I had killed him," by which act of courage the soldiers were so astonished that they returned quietly to their quarters. Valerius was very Avealthy and this proved his ruin. The empress Messalina coveted his splendid gardens, \vhich Avere the same as Lucul-lus had originally laid out, and which Valerius had made still more magnificent. She also suspected him of being one of the paramours of the beautiful Poppaea Sabina, the mother of Nero's wife, whom she both feared and detested ; and she therefore resolved to crush Valerius and Poppaea at the same time. She employed Suillius to ac-
cuse him, and also instructed Sosibius, Avho ayes then a slave or a freedman in the palace, to caution Claudius against the poAver and Avealth of Valerius. This Avas in A. d. 47, the year following his second consulship. Valerius had in the preceding year voluntarily resigned his consulship after holding it for a short time, in order to avoid the envy of Avhich he was the subject. Suillius accused him of the part he had taken in Caligula's death, and of an intention of setting out to the German armies with a vieAV of aspiring to the empire, since he Avas born at Vienna (Vienne) in Gaul and had many connections in that part of the Roman Avorld. The weak and credulous emperor Avas easily persuaded. Valerius was apprehended at Baiae. The senate Avas not summoned, but he was brought into the emperor's chamber, where Suillius laid various crimes to his charge. Valerius defended himself with spirit, and the emperor Avould have acquitted him had it not been for Messalina, who got Vitellius, then consul for the third time, to persuade the emperor to sentence him to death. He was alloAved the choice of his death, and died by opening his veins. (Dion Cass. lix. 30 ; Joseph, xix. 1 ; Sen. de Const. Sap. 18 ; Tac. Ann. xi. 1—3, xiii. 43 ; Dion Cass. Ix. 27,29,31.)
2. P. valerius asiaticus, the legatus of the province of Gallia Belgica at the death of Nero, espoused the cause of Vitellius at the beginning of a. d. 69, and soon afterwards married the daughter of Vitellius. Qn the fall of Vitellius he hastened to make his peace with the generals of Vespasian, and as consul designatus spoke in the senate in favour of their proposals. He Avas alloAved in consequence to enjoy the consulship as suffectus in the folioAving year, a. d. 70. (Tac. Hist. i. 59, iv.
4, e.) ;
3. valerius asiaticus, consul under Hadrian a. d. 125 withTitius Aquilinus (Fasti).
VALERIUS BASSIANUS, slain by Corn-modus. (Lamprid. Commod. 7.)
M. VALERIUS BRA'DUA, consul under Commodus a. d. 191 with Pedo Apronianus (Fasti).
C. VALE'RIUS CABURNUS. [procillus.] ^ VALE'RIUS CA'PITO, banished by Agrip-pina, Avas after her death recalled from exile by Nero. (Tac. Ann. xiv. 12.)
VALERIUS CATULINUS, Avas sent by Julianus to succeed Septimius Severus in the government of Illyricum, when the latter assumed the imperial title. Valerius Avas afterwards killed by Septimius. (Spartian. Julian, 5, Sever. 13.)

quote:there's a new zombie flick coming out where it looks like a zombie dude falls for a chick and kinds turns human again. May every person in this film die painfully by being ripped apart by zombies. They're not taking this genre from me!
quote:Funny this thread turned into a vampire / zombie dick slapping fest.
quote:Zombies are a great horror villain because it plays on our fear of pestilence and disease. Also, unlike most horror villains, a zombie cannot be reasoned with. It is a force of nature. Actually, one zombie is no threat, hundreds of zombies are. It's pretty great how something so weak can become a threat by sheer weight of numbers. Also, I like slow zombies due to the inevitability of the whole thing. Also, zombie parables have to be dystopian stories, and dystopia is one of my favorite subgenres. I like the idea of the total breakdown of society and a "return to nature". Even more itneresting is the attempt to recreate society (which is what I like about, say, the end of 28 Days Later). Vampires have always been sort of the allure of death. They've always trafficked in sex and lust as far back as Nosferatu and Dracula. Twilight is really not a huge leap for the genre. But I dont find death sexy or alluring, I find it gross and decaying. Which is why I prefer zombie tales.
quote:Vampires>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Zombies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you're a queer or 14 year old girl.
quote:I wouldn't say that I hate the movie and TV craze. I hate everyone that seems to believe that every thing that happens in the world seems to be a prelude to the zombie apocalypse. The obsessiveness of these people is what I hate.
quote:And poor werewolves, or were-creatures, they are awesome, but Thanks Twilight.
quote:I do not recognize any fictional reality which has both vampires and werewolves. They always screw it up. Werewolves? Awesome. Except in Twilight and Blade. I simply do not recognize it.
quote:Well, except Monster Squad.
quote:Had it not been for Abraham Lincoln, vampires and zombies would be in control today.
quote:I used to piss off my old college room mate when I would suggest that all of the Anne Rice vampire books were just thinly veiled homoerotic porn books.
