We arranged private tours through a great local agency, Cocha. They had great vans for us and our fellow CC that we hooked up with on this site.
The city was an interesting couple of days, and the guides offered us much insight into the history of it and Chile. We must add that the Chilean people we met were just so friendly. We also had some great dining in beautiful restaurants. The city was all we expected and more.We will offer up a few thoughts about some ports that we visited. Some are not available to review on this site.
Oh, we did buy a new camera at the duty free shop that everyone was flocking into. The price was higher than on the ship, and higher than buying it in the States, Once again, we learned that most of the duty free shops are offering no bargains.
If there is a next time, we would skip the flea market type pf shops set up for the tourists. We also would skip the little plaza where they sell coffee.
I could really downgrade the tour rating to a 2 or 3, except Marelvy was so nice, and we did not suggest changing things.

This cluster includes seven members of staff and one associated member of staff.
The cluster has two main research themes Emotion and Perception and Action.
The Emotion group works on phenomena that distinguish between different individuals in the long term (individual differences) and between states of a single individual at different times (emotion-related). These are related at many levels, and the links raise important research issues.
The perception and action group works on the mechanisms underlying people's ability to acquire information about their physical surroundings, and generate actions appropriate to their surroundings.
The two groups share similar goals and methods, and an interest in crossing narrow topic boundaries. That has led them to joint research in areas such as emotional intelligence, the perception of emotion, and links between perception and action.
The cluster has been very successful in Europe. These are the major grants that it has brought in recently:
HUMAINE was a major EC project, co-ordinated by Queen's, which brought together leading teams from 14 countries to lay the intellectual foundations for 'emotion-oriented' technologies. Queen's led one of the strands of HUMAINE, whose aim was to collect databases that show how emotion appears in action and interaction – it provides the empirical basis of the project. SEMAINE built on that theory to create artificial characters that can hold a sustained, emotionally coloured conversation with a person. SSPnet extends the approach from emotion as such to subtler states, such as 'stances' including politeness, friendliness, curiosity, etc. ILHAIRE is an indepth study of a key nonverbal element in interaction, which is laughter. It is building a database of laughter as it appears in everyday life, and trying to identify the forms it takes. SIEMPRE studies the many kinds of communication that take place in live musical performance, and the ways they contribute to the emotional (and other) experiences that make live concerts special.
Professor Cathy Craig was one of the first to be awarded a Starting Independent Researcher's grant by the European Research Council in 2007. This prestigious award has allowed her to develop her work on perception/action research. Other sources of funding in perception and action research include CARDI (Centre for Ageing Research Development in Ireland), Parkinson's UK and Microsoft's PhD programme.
Large scale projects recently completed include ORESTEIA, an international collaboration between psychologists, engineers and mathematicians on technologies for monitoring potentially hazardous states in drivers; and ERMIS, another international project funded by the EC, which developed systems for recognising emotion from audio-visual inputs, using techniques suggested by human perception.
Professor Cathy Craig (Professor, Psychology) joined Queen's from the University of Aix-Marseille II in Marseille in 2005. She is now Director of Research for the cluster taking over from Professor Roddy Cowie in July, 2011. Her main research focus is on the neural control of movement, with a particular interest in understanding how perceptual information, picked up from unfolding events in the environment influences and guides our actions. With over 10 year's research experience in perception/action research. She has developed a state of the art perception and action research lab that harnesses the power of both motion capture and virtual reality technology to develop interventions that may improve motor performance in both sporting and health contexts (see http://www.qub.ac.uk/parl). Her particular interests concern enhancing movement performance at all levels (young to old) by using artificially generated patterns of sensory information (e.g. temporal guides). This includes acoustic and visual guides presented through VR based games that have been successfully used to train balance in older adults and help train decision making in players/athletes (see Movement Innovation Lab http://www.qub.ac.uk/mil).

Professor Roddy Cowie led the whole HUMAINE network of excellence (see above) and Queen's contribution to most of the projects that have followed. He has a background in visual and auditory perception, with a particular interest in computational models. Since the 1990's he has worked mainly on the perception of emotion, as a problem where many of the issues that most interested him come together – it involves interactions among visual, auditory and linguistic channels, and it highlights questions about the nature of the experience that is the end result of perception.
Professor Roddy Cowie's Full Publication List
Dr Will Curran (Senior lecturer, Psychology) studies visual perception. His work has covered shape-from-shading and depth cue combination, the processes underlying the perception of motion transparency, and perceptual development in early infancy. He currently focuses on motion perception; specifically, transparency perception, direction repulsion, the motion aftereffect, the direction aftereffect and motion coherence, in collaboration with research groups at the University of Saint Andrew's, University College London, the University of Sydney, and Bristol University.

Dr Joost Dessing (lecturer, Psychology) joined Queen's from York University, Toronto in 2012. Joost's research has always focused on eye-hand coordination, with a particular focus on catching and hitting movements. He examines how (predominantly visual) information is transformed by the brain into adequate motor commands. He studies this at a fundamental level in laboratory tasks as well as in more applied situations, such as sports. He uses behavioural experiments (in combination Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) in real and virtual situations and neurocomputational modeling.

Dr Mihalis Doumas (lecturer Psychology) joined Queen's from KU Leuven, Belgium in 2011. He performs research in human movement control. He is primarily interested in the way sensory information is used for optimal movement performance in tasks including rhythmic movements and the control of upright standing (postural control). Research in these areas is performed using methods such as brain stimulation and includes a large age-range of individuals (children, young and older adults) as well as clinical populations (ADHD, major depression).

Dr Matthew Rodger (lecturer, Psychology) joined the School as Research Fellow in 2010 and was appointed lecturer in 2012. He researches perception and action. Matthew's main interests are: auditory perception in movement control and timing; musical performance, perception and skill acquisition. Primarily using motion capture technology, he investigates how the brain can pick up information in sound to control actions, and how this might be used to improve motor performance in clinical populations. He also researches the links between movement and music, both in performance and skill acquisition, with the goal to enhance music training practices and to use music in the context of motor rehabilitation.

Dr Ian Sneddon (Senior lecturer, Psychology) has studied animal welfare for many years – particularly in farm animals. That raises questions about recognition of emotional states in animals, the use of cognition/emotion as indicators of stress/welfare in animals, and the nature and stability of temperament in animals. He is currently applying the data collection skills developed in animal observation to the study of human emotion in naturalistic settings and has developed an interest in the methodology and ethics of collecting and handling data on human emotion.

Professor Richard Carson (Professor, Psychology) joined Queen's from the University of Queensland. He studies how people move and the factors that limit and enhance this capacity to move. The focus is upon the laws and principles that govern the coordination of human movement. He is concerned not only with understanding the basic question of how movement is controlled, but also with the alterations in coordination which occur throughout the lifespan, and in response to acquired disorders of movement.

We report the long-wavelength UV anoxic photosynthesis of uracil, various sugars (including deoxyribose and glycoaldehyde), amino acids, and other organic photoproducts. These reactions occur in mixtures of water, calcium carbonate, formaldehyde and hydrazine. Our data demonstrate that under several sets of conditions biomolecules can be formed in variety and abundance from reduced compounds (formaldehyde and hydrazine) derived from anoxic dinitrogen/carbon dioxide environments. The formaldehyde concentrations were varied from 10 mM to 0.005 mM, and the hydrazine concentrations were varied from 1 mM to 0.01 mM. The highest of these reactant concentrations were 500 and 6 times greater than those reported for earlier experiments upon the synthesis of these precursors from CO2 or N2, while the lowest of reactant concentrations employed here were 0.5 (formaldehyde) and 0.006 (hydrazine). Product yields were greatest when the hydrazine/formaldehyde ratio was 1, and when the reactant concentrations were low. These data suggest that organic products can be formed in variety from those amounts of formaldehyde and hydrazine precursors which are themselves formed under anoxic UV photochemical conditions. Hence these various reactions would seem to have prebiotic relevance. The UV 254 nm photon flux employed was 100 times higher than unattenuated solar flux. Durations of UV exposure were 24 hrs and 72 hrs. No experiments have been addressed to the possibility of UV flux dependency.

Reader UI of the Week - Special Patch 3.0.2 edition
Patch 3.0.2 is bringing a lot of expanded functionality to the underlying API (Application Programming Interface). The changes will not be as drastic as we all experienced when Burning Crusade was released, however there still will be a fair amount of problems that will have to be solved. After the break are a few complete lists of addons that are reported to at least work somewhat well together.
For a complete list of functioning addons, along with download sources, check out our list of essential addons for patch 3.0.2. We'll keep that list updated throughout the day.
Reader UI #1 – Daedhir of Duskwood
Daedhir provides us with a well framed and formatted UI that he has been using while exploring and leveling in Northrend.

Frosteye is a Death Knight on the Lich King beta server and presents to us a rather scaled down UI compared to some we've seen. The color choices aren't exactly to my liking, but what is to my liking is that everything works – and that is what's important in the next few days. You can see that he has functioning action bars, raid frames, and combat data displays. All things that are essential for a good time. Frosteye's list of addons follows.
- Bartender4
- ButtonFacade

Iraya happens to be a guild mate of mine, who I realized just tonight had sent in a UI to us. Iraya took a snapshot of his UI while we were traveling through Naxxramas one evening. There are a lot of things I like here: working raid frames, a clean UI with clear visibility of the raid, easily identifiable buffs and debuffs, a damage and threat meter off to the side, and DBM misbehaving in its positioning (to Iraya's credit however, he mentions that he's since fixed it). The mods Iraya is using include:
- X-Perl Unit Frames
- Z-Threat Meter
- Deadly Boss Mods
- RuneWatch
- FuBar
- Recount
Matt's UI is a good demonstration of a UI that just works. It might not be the prettiest or cleanest UI around – but it does demonstrate multiple addons that are good for raiding and general grouping. With Matt's UI we can clearly see recount, x-perl, and dominos all working together. He also has a beta version of Omen up. Addons which Matt has running are:
- CowTip
- Deadly Boss Mods
- Domions
- Omen
- Onebag
- Quartz
- RatingBuster
- Recount
- X-Perl
I really dig Smacker's UI. It has everything I like in it: accessibility, cleanness, openness, information, good placement, and an uncluttered main play area. The minimap, while it has a lot of buttons, doesn't look like some spaghetti monster ate it for breakfast. It's organized and presents the necessary information nicely. Smacker's addons include:
- Baggins
- Clique
- Domions
- DoubleWide
- FishingAce
- Grid
- kgPanels
- Mappy
- Outfitter
- Prat
- Quartz
- Recount2
- TrinketMenu
- X-Perl
- YurrCombatLog

@cmsmith10: Almonds can be highly beneficial for dry cough. Soak about 10 almonds in water for a couple of hours. Remove the skin and mix them with some butter and sugar in a blender. Keep mixing until it is a paste. Eat it twice a day for cough.
On another note, you can also extract the juice from an onion and mix it with honey for cough. Take it about 3 times a day and your cough will go away.

Dancing with the Stars Recap: Double Jeopardy
Triple the fun and double jeopardy is the name of the game this week, on Dancing with The Stars. Each couple had to learn two dances – one with their partner, and the other with two partners. The Trio twist was a fun change up for tonight's show that showcased the dancers ability to keep up with two professionals.
Tonight's episode is a double elimination with no dance duel to save anyone in the bottom two. Maria Menonous and Melissa Gilbert both found themselves in the bottom two this week. William Levy topped the leader board with a gentile Foxtrot and a powerful Paso Doble. William earned his perfect score during for his Foxtrot with partner Cheryl Burke.
Judge, Len Goodman, was not impressed with Derek Hough choreography this week. He complained that Maria's Viennese Waltz lacked substance and her Samba
wasn't really a Samba. Derek took a big chance when he tried to pass a Samba off as a Bollywood Dance, but Len wasn't biting this week.
Melissa Gilbert had two of her best performances of her DWTS career and even managed to pull out three straight 9's from the judges for her trio dance. Even that was not enough to keep her out of the bottom spot.
Donald Driver was pure magic, but the judges withheld the perfect score again. His first dance was a Tango, which garnered glowing words from the judges, but not the 10's viewers were expecting.
Katherine Jenkins managed to dance straight through a major wardrobe malfunction without missing a beat during her Trio Cha Cha. Her Trio performance earned her a score of 29, the highest of the round.

About five years ago a state-of-the-art adaptive front lighting system (AFS) could control car headlight beams automatically based on speed, steering angle, and other vehicle sensor data. Light could shine where a vehicle intended to turn, as opposed to shining only after the turn was completed. That functionality, introduced on higher-end vehicles, can obviously make night driving safer. It's now available on some midrange cars, and we can look forward to the day when it will be available on every vehicle.
The next step in AFS evolution was to add a camera and image processing software and combine camera data and sensor data, so the front lighting system can adapt beams based on oncoming or approaching traffic. Steffen Pietzonka, vice president of marketing for Hella's Lighting business unit, says the newest versions work not only with the high beam, but can also adapt the range of the vehicle's low beam. When the brights are on an AFS can direct beams to the left and right of an oncoming car, or one that's being overtaken, but leave a center channel open to avoid "blinding" the other driver. That would reduce stress during night driving, when the majority of accidents occur.
Those features are available for vehicles with high intensity discharge (HID) xenon headlamps but not yet available for LED headlamps, according to Pietzonka. While LED headlamps are more expensive than HID, they are also a superior light source, consume less power, last longer, and present greater opportunities for styling and differentiation. LED headlamps on the new Audi A8, for example, feature a distinctive curved-ribbon look, and the car combines daytime running lights with indicator and position lights.
Engineers are working to integrate camera and sensor data for the same level of LED headlamp control that is available now for vehicles with HID headlamps. Chances are they'll succeed, volume will increase, prices will drop, and in a couple of decades, if not sooner, we'll all be driving cars with LED headlamps, and that sounds like a good thing.

Nice Saber Mini passthru video, Sir
And NO.... you do NOT look bad at all, Silly Goose.
New 5 Volt 5 amp Regulated High Powered Saber Touch Mod
Warning this is a very High Powered Mod, it can be used with the smoketech 1.5 ohm dual coil cartomizers with the under load reading about 4.7 volts, plus all other atomizers, and cartomizers. From Vapormoon.com
Note using a Saber Pass-through will decrease the under load to about 3.7 volts due to the High Amps.
With this new 5 volt amp 5 regulator for a $6.95 upgrade is well worth it, if you love dual coil cartomizers.
YOU CAN NOT UPGRADE YOUR EXISTING 5 volt Saber. You will have to buy this as New with the upgrade feature
The one I am using is the limited Edition Satin Black with detail mill work, and Nickel Plated Caps.
I believe this is the only TRUE 5 volt regulated Mod you can use with dual coil cartomizers, and it Hits like a freight train.

They've said for years that manga was popular in the US because of anime, and anime got popular because people swapped tapes, sharing their favorites as copies. Now, there's some indication that movie studios are coming around to seeing the value of sharing as marketing research.
This TorrentFreak article summarizes some comments by David Kaplan, Chief of Anti-Piracy Operations for Warner Bros., at a recent Anti-Piracy and Content Protection Summit.
"We view piracy as a proxy of consumer demand," he says, and the company is "looking at ways to adjust or develop business models to take advantage of that demand by offering fans what they are looking for when they are looking for it." This is in line with the growing idea that people share content because it provides a better user experience (without being locked down, for example, or stuffed with ads) or it's available in more places (without artificial region lockdowns or in languages with fans but no official support) or it's available for the device they want to use or because it allows for a fairer price (that is, people are willing to pay for a digital book, but not the same or more as they would for a printed copy). If a content provider is willing to consider providing a better user experience, they can compete with instead of fear piracy.
Also, Warner supports fan creations, to a degree. "We give a wide berth to 'fan use' and permit fans to use and interact with our content in ways that might technically still constitute copyright infringement, but do not directly substitute for the full length feature, episode, or game," Kaplan notes. (Which might explain why JL8 has been running so long.)
Of course, this is not an indication that pirates can operate with impunity. There will still be "a strong focus on enforcement and legal initiatives that are needed to secure better copyright protection."

Five Reasons Tyler the Creator Is a Sophomoric Genius
3. He's Actually Incredibly Well-Spoken
Tyler gets a bad rap because of his juvenile references, but c'mon, he just turned 23 a few days ago. He recently appeared on the renewed Arsenio Hall Show and made a lot of waves when he laid out a mountain of honest and thoughtful realness. And he did it all while pushing his Chuck Taylors all over the fancy couch. Don't judge a book by its cover.
2. He Made "a Quarter-Million Off of Socks"
What Tyler brags about in Earl's "Woah" is true: He did make thousands off of socks -- sort of. OFWGKTA has its own clothing line, designs by Tyler and the gang (high tube socks available in a range of colors). They're rather simple, like the kind of doodles you'd find on a high schooler's notes. But it just goes to show how smart Tyler is about the hustle. They even opened their own shop in Los Angeles, and they also sell OF skate boards. Bottom line: Tyler is a marketing genius, and he knows how to get kids to buy into a brand without compromising his values.
1. The Biggest Names Back Him Up Superhard
If you like Pharrell, Kanye West, and Jay Z, it might be of note that these big swingers are ridin' that Tyler d*#k rather hard. When Tyler released his first single from latest record Wolf, Kanye's entire website was just a giant YouTube embed of the video. Pharrell sang the hook and appears in the latest Tyler clip for "Tamale" as a sad drummer in the touching outro. But just because people be dick-cowboys doesn't mean Tyler gives a shit. When Will.I.Am. told him backstage at the Grammys that he'd one day be a sellout making music he hates, much like the man speaking, Tyler got on Twitter and blasted him. Money doesn't make you safe, so watch out, poseurs, Tyler's got that wrath, and he's bringing it to Fort Lauderdale. Don't miss it.
Tyler the Creator. 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 19, at Revolution Live, 100SW Third Ave., Fort Lauderdale. Tickets cost $28 plus fees in advance and $32 day of show. Call 954-449-1025, or visit jointherevolution.net.

Andy Robinson has resigned as Scotland rugby coach following Saturday's shock 21-15 loss to Tonga at Pittodrie.
Robinson had been under contract until after the 2015 Rugby World Cup but has stepped down early after Tonga handed the Scots their 10th defeat in their last 13 games.
During that poor run of form, Scotland crashed out of the World Cup at the opening group phase for the first time ever and then finished with the wooden spoon in this year's RBS 6 Nations Championship.
Robinson was appointed in June 2009 and finished with 19 victories from his 35 matches in charge but the Tonga defeat followed home losses to New Zealand and South Africa.
In a statement released by the Scottish Rugby Union on Sunday, Robinson said: "It's been a privilege to be the head coach of Scotland and I'd like to thank the fans, players, coaches and staff for all their support over the years.
"I have thoroughly enjoyed working with the players and the coaches in the last few years.
"I believe I have left the team in a better position than when I took over and have great confidence in the players and the coaches for the future.
"I am very disappointed by our recent results but I have belief that the players can develop into a winning team."
Scottish Rugby's Chief Executive Mark Dodson added: "Following the sequence of recent results during the EMC Autumn Tests a change in head coach is required to take the team forward and build towards the Rugby World Cup in 2015.
"Andy has overseen some fine results as Scotland head coach since he was appointed in June 2009 but the recent defeats have been very disappointing."

Blogger Brad Jacobson gives play-by-play (MediaBloodhound, 1/28/09) for an epic attempt by MSNBC's Chris Matthews to live down his one-time confession to having "felt this thrill going up my leg" during a Barack Obama speech. Matthews' reparation strategy: "How about facilitating a discussion about Obama's proposed stimulus plan with two lawmakers from the same party, the Republican Party?"
That's precisely what Matthews did during a segment on his January 27 edition of Hardball, inviting only Senator John Ensign (R-Nevada) and Representative Mike Pence, the House Republican conference chair, to discuss the plan.
Not enough? How about a segment exploring whether Rush Limbaugh is the "new voice of the GOP," but once again facilitating the "balanced" discussion with two people on the right and no one on the left or even center? (Never mind that Limbaugh has been the voice of the Republican Party for two decades and counting.) In the very same broadcast, Matthews did this as well, bringing on MSNBC analyst Pat Buchanan and right-wing radio talkshow host Heidi Harris. (You might remember that Harris, appearing on Hardball during the election season, had told Matthews that women vote for Democrats because they "tend to think with their hearts and not with their minds.")
But wait, there's more: "How about, in the process, framing a question based on Rush Limbaugh's assertions and posing it to these two other right-wingers while prefacing the question with the words, 'Let's get back to the facts here'?" To Jacobson, "this kind of fairness and balance not only rivals Fox News but threatens to out-Fox it"–not that this would be a new trend or anything; see the FAIR publication Extra! Update: "Struggling MSNBC Attempts to Out-Fox Fox" (2/05) by Peter Hart

Fun Jewelry Creating
Lu needed a quick Birthday gift for a girlfriend...How cute did this turn out!? We used one of the little frames and printed out her girlfriends initial, so quick and easy! Then I attached it to one of those fabulous ball chains we love using.
I am wanting to run back to Hobby Lobby and purchase every.single.one of these packages for future projects.

I had no idea Hobby Lobby had those little frames too! I love making necklaces like that, and now I know that I don't have to make the long journey to Michaels anymore!
Happy Monday!

Hi Sonya! I had some fun going back reading all the posts I missed while I was away. Love the new look of your blog. The necklace is a neat idea. Hobby Lobby has some great finds for creating necklaces. The last few yard sales I had I didn't even advertise, just stuck a sign out on the street near my house and watched them roll in. I live on a very busy street across from several hotels and my sign was very visible. I'll probably have another one come fall and sell furniture this time around.

Very nice! And wonderful that Lu is learning to make things, and wanting to make a gift rather than go out and buy one. I made a small doll quilt for my niece when she was 7 (she's now 25). I was quite impressed when she opened my package and she and all the little girls at the party oohed and ahhed! Some of their mothers also quilt, so they had been taught right! I hope Lu's friend appreciates a beautiful handmade gift.

As Father Time marches forward… here's a summary of the key developments across the SEO Industry in 2011.
Google started the year dominating search, and no surprise, Google still dominates search now; although Bing was able to capture modest market share gains. According to comScore, there were 17.8 billion searches in November 2011, of which 11.7 billion were run on Google, and Yahoo! + Bing accounted for 5.4 billion collectively.
Wake Up with Caffeine
In January, Google kicked-off 2011 with a revamped version of Caffeine, their super-fast ability to crawl and index content, allowing real-time content to be displayed in the results within minutes, and therefore, firmly establishing that content freshness will be an increasingly important ranking factor.
Social Influence Officially becomes a Part of the Ranking Calculation
In February, Google makes the "official" announcement that social signals are part of the SERPs weighted algorithm. Bing stays on the sidelines until the following month and then joins-in… a tacit admission by the major search engines that social media is here to stay.
Year of the Panda
Also in Q1, we saw the launch of Google's Panda – a qualitative filter aimed at "thin" content sites. Overnight many content networks see rankings plummet across the board. The fear of Pandalization becomes every webmasters fear, as several reiterations are run throughout the year.
Google Launches the +1 Button & Google +
In Q2, the world experiences the launch of the +1 button – the Google equivalent of the Facebook "Like" icon. Google proceeds with a full-scale launch of Google +, an online social network in June.
Google Sitelinks
In Q3, Google continues to dominate the headlines – August sees the introduction of 'jumbo sitelinks' – providing all brands with multiple links to help engage consumers identify deeper pages within their sites quickly to further improve relevancy and site engagement.
Yahoo! Site Explorer
Also in Q3, Yahoo! declares that Site Explorer will be sunset in 2011, and while there are alternatives on the market – Yahoo! Site Explorer was the only link graph tool produced exclusively by a major search engine.
Secure Search
In Q4, the SEO Industry sees the introduction of "Secure Search" by Google. If a user is signed into Google, their search terms are automatically stripped from the keyword data which shows up in Analytics.
November/December Holiday Retailers Cheer
The US consumer showcases online spending confidence with record sales across the board for the Holiday Sales Season – online sales surpass $30 billion. Amazon is the clear winner.
What else?
Bing gets accused of copying Google search results, Google and Microsoft bicker. Author authority introduced and Google provides guidance on content duplication issues with canonical tags. Google embroiled in anti-trust investigation and Eric Schmidt goes to Washington to testify.
Google launches "trusted stores" and makes massive moves into the ecommerce space. Facebook ties up with Skype (and Microsoft) in a video chat deal, and Twitter severed ties with Google.
Goodbye 2011… Hello 2012
Innovation across the Search Landscape continues to evolve at an increasingly rapid pace. From RankPay's perspective, we are working hard to remain current (and hopefully ahead) of continued innovation around the page design implications of local and mobile, and of course the never-ending algorithm enhancements with respect to content freshness and social influence. We hope each of you had a fantastic 2011, and wish you continued success in 2012.

More reviews by AmandaAngel0802
A creamy concealer that goes on smoothly. I always use a brush first in dots then blot with my finger to make it go on without coming off. Great for covering underskin pimples (where there's no head but pronounce bump on the face) Make sure to smooth it out or it will cause the makeup to cake.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I love this product because it has two colors. Sometimes I use a fake tanner and use the darker shade. It covers pretty well, it's not too heavy and I am very sensitive to heavy products. I would not buy it again because I would like to try a higher end brand.
After using this for over a year it has made lines appear under my eyes. I think it's just way to thick and heavy.
This is an okay concealer. Its not very creamy and it did not work for me. I got this in Light and it was too dark. Not much product even comes in it, I will not repurchase. For reference I am NW20 in MAC's Studio Fix Powder.
Very sheer. Not good for covering blemishes. I use it under my eye, that's all I can think of to do with it.
So far so good. I just purchased the Tan/Dark duo concealer from ebay. I tried it out tonight on some dark spots that are very hard to cover (even with traditional makeup). It worked out perfectly. I don't know how it holds up to a full day yet but the fact that it covered so well and matched my skin tone is very promising. I haven't tried it for under eye coverage yet but hopefully the results are equally as good.
Beautiful creamy texture, very easy to blend and great for under the eyes without being dry or going into lines. The lighter side of the light compact is very peachy so good for covering the blue circles under the eyes.
I found it caused enlarged and blocked pores on my nose when I tried it for covering redness and broken capillaries. So maybe it's better for under eyes or dry skin? Also, both sides of the "Light" compact were too dark. I wasn't given the "extra-light" choice when I ordered, but maybe its not available in my country.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
If you are PPP or very light, like me, order the "Extra Light" from www.sheercover.com, or ask for it on your mail order. Otherwise, you will get "Light," which is a medium shade of yellow-ivory.
This also makes a great eye-shadow base.
I am using the dual-shade of the "Light" kit, which is a sort of greenish-beige, to cover red spots under makeup. That is the only way I can use the shade.
The cover of my extra light concealer is difficult to open. Use some sort of tool, or you risk breaking your nails.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
The 'light' concealer was way too dark for my face. I really think it should have been considered dark. The lighter color was orange, and when I did try it on my face with the rest of the makeup kit, you could see the spots where I put the concealer on underneath the mineral powder.
More reviews by maraschino_cherry
The texture is quite cool because I've never used a concealer with such a light texture. The only thing is that sometimes I have to layer it up to get the same amount of coverage I would get from my heavier Maybelline Coverstick. I pat it on to get the fullest coverage. I don't find myself reaching for it as much as my Coverstick but I keep one in my bag just in case.
Update 17/04/09: I don't even use this anymore. It sits in my bag because I have other products that I don't need to work so hard with to get good coverage. Pretty expensive for something I don't really use.

Contact Sports Desk: Call: 603-516-2949 / E-mail: email@example.com Mike Whaley: Noble/Wells was the little team that could
Monday, March 3, 2014
While everyone else was saying "No, they can't," the Noble/Wells boys ice hockey team was making it quite clear that "Yes, we can."
OK, less numbers, yes. Less talent? Not likely.
Noble/Wells tied 4-4 with Falmouth in the regional semifinal — Really?
"The power of the mind is limitless," said coach Keith St. Cyr. "They believed they could make a go of it. It was close. It could have been ours as much as Falmouth's. This team had more heart and will than any team I've ever coached."
Noble/Wells broke open a 1-1 game in the third period with five answered goals to win, 6-1, and secure home ice in the quarters.
"We've always been the underdogs," Marsh said. "We have nothing to lose. The fact that the game was so close made it exciting to be there. We played so well to get there, we figured we might as well leave it all out there." |

Additionally, the driver may have a language monitor that can enable two-way communication between the spooler and the printer. The language monitor can also pass printer control commands using the printer job language. If a language monitor is associated with a printer, it processes data and sends it to the port monitor.

Flad Architects- Review
Pros: iCIMS customer support, resume parsing, ability to apply via LinkedIn, communications center, etc.
Cons: The only "con" we have discovered with iCIMS right now is the limitation of 1MB for resume and document upload. It would be great if this could be increased to 5MB or 10MB. We receive a lot of portfolios that exceed 1MB and right now we are having to save them separately, outside of iCIMS.
Overall: iCIMS has excellent customer service. It has been a great experience from the initial demo through implementation to every day use.
iCIMS customer service has been top notch...I can't say enough about all the positive experiences I have had with every person at iCIMS. We also think iCIMS is a great product. Thanks for making my job easier!

Genzyme says Phase 3 ENGAGE, ENCORE studies met primary endpoints
Genzyme, a Sanofi company, announced positive new data from the Phase 3 ENGAGE and ENCORE studies of eliglustat tartrate, its investigational oral therapy for Gaucher disease type 1. The results from the ENGAGE study were presented today at the 9th Annual Lysosomal Disease Network WORLD Symposium in Orlando, Fla. In conjunction with this meeting, Genzyme also released topline data from its second Phase 3 study, ENCORE. Both studies met their primary efficacy endpoints and together will form the basis of Genzyme�s registration package for eliglustat tartrate. In ENGAGE, a Phase 3 trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of eliglustat tartrate in 40 treatment-na�ve patients with Gaucher disease type 1, improvements were observed across all primary and secondary efficacy endpoints over the 9-month study period. ENCORE, the second Phase 3 trial in the eliglustat tartrate development program, also met its primary efficacy endpoint.

Sanofi reports positive opinion from CHMP for Toujeo
Sanofi announced that the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use, or CHMP, of the European Medicines Agency, or EMA, has issued a positive opinion recommending the approval of Toujeo, a next-generation basal insulin for the treatment of adults with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Toujeo has demonstrated a more stable and a prolonged glycemic control that lasts beyond 24 hours compared with Lantus with low within-individual, within-day blood sugar variability. The European Commission is expected to make a final decision on granting marketing authorization for Toujeo in the EU in the coming months. Toujeo was approved by the FDA and is under review by other regulatory authorities around the world. Once approved, Toujeo will be available in the Toujeo SoloSTAR, a disposable prefilled pen which contains 450 insulin units, and it has a maximum single injection dose of 80 IU.

Toujeo is expected to be available in the U.S. at the beginning of Q2. The approval of Toujeo was based on FDA review of results from the EDITION clinical trial program, which was comprised of a series of international Phase III studies evaluating the efficacy and safety of Toujeo in more than 3,500 adults from broad and diverse diabetes populations.

Wines at Vizcaya Are Fruity and Whimsical
via Vizcaya Café & Shop |
At a recent tasting in the under-construction café, I quaffed the Hurricane Class 5 Florida white sangria. It's a delicious mix of pineapple, watermelon, passion fruit, key lime, and mango wine.
There' s also a key lime wine -- Key Limen -- and a mango variety called Mango Mamma. The Key Limen recently took best in show at the 2011 Florida State Fair for best wine produced by a commercial winery. It was also awarded best in show at the Florida Farm Winery competition.
John Zur |
Mango Mamma |
Bottles range from $18.95 to around $50. Most are in the mid-$20 range. The specialty port wines are priced around $50.
Vizcaya is the lone retail outlet for Florida Orange Grove & Winery products in Miami. The third-generation, family-owned business has been producing unique wines since 1991. The main winery is located in St. Petersburg, and the largest distributor is Epcot at Disney World. The wines are available online at the Vizcaya Café & Shop and also by phoning ahead and then picking up the wines in person.
One caveat: The tastings we attended allowed only mouthwash-size shots in tiny plastic cups -- and we were limited to one each.

Selena Gomez isn't going to stand for bullying. The singer/actress called out a fan on Instagram for bullying on July 12. Way to go, Selena!
Selena Gomez, 21, isn't going to tolerate bullying in any capacity. The "Come & Get It" singer made a huge statement by calling out a "fan" on Instagram on July 12 who left a "distasteful" comment about cancer.
Selena Gomez Calls Out A Fan On Instagram For Bullying
We have never been more proud of Selena. The singer/actress took a stand on Instagram on July 12 in a very bold way. Selena called out a fan for bullying!
After a "fan" began bullying on one of Selena's Instagram photos, Selena called her out on her awful behavior. Selena posted her response to the "fan's" photo on her own personal Instagram.
Here's what Selena's post said:
"The comment you left about cancer was absurd. How distasteful of young woman. I have gone through that battle with fans and family members. You can dislike someone but to wish something that could happen to you or your family is uncalled for sweetheart. You won't be winning 'anyone's' heart that way. Trust me. Educate yourself a tad more. God bless love. Be an amazing woman. You're beautiful."
Selena's caption to the post read, "Honestly, I don't speak up much because it's simply *always* taken out of context. But I don't take bullying well. I have seen too much to not say anything."
There are no words for Selena's strong message. She is such a role model to young girls and women everywhere. She is an inspiration in both the music and film industry.
Selena Gomez Finds 'Harmony'
Before she called out a fan for bullying, Selena spent time with Spring Breakers director Harmony Korine in Miami. She captioned an Instagram photo, "Day 2 x harmony x Miami."
Selena posted very mysterious photos with Harmony and throwback pics with the cast, which sparked the idea that maybe they were talking up a Spring Breakers sequel?
While nothing is in the works, they could be talking about a possible new film! Selena is hard at work in her acting career after her split from Justin Bieber.
Selena's brave and bold comment to a vicious fan just proves that she doesn't need a man. She's strong and stands up for what's right on her own.
HollywoodLifers, what do you think of Selena calling out a fan for bullying? Was it the right thing to do? Let us know!

Good for Selena. I see beliebers on this site writing things about Selena, wishing she would get cancer and die, etc.., I always wondered why Justin never took his fans to task for the homicidal and strange bullying comments they leave every day. For a guy who claims to be a Christian he certainly doesn't walk the walk. These scary fans are getting out of hand and it's become less about the people they say they are fans of and more about expressing unhealthy, cruel, unstable comments to hurt people. I wouldn't want support from people who hate so much.

I love both justin and selena! im tired of people crapping on justin! selena's an amazing woman and i look up to her, but c'mon!! people are always blaming justin and acting like he's devil incarnate and shes the perfect saint cmon! everyone has flaws! and there must be a reason she loves him .
Posted at 12:44 AM on July 14, 2014
Did anyone not see the comment Selena left on @/lauren_faccio or something like that username. Selena left a mean message, you can ask for that screenshot. Or Hollywood Life go on youtube and type selena gomez instagram message. It should be someone on there. So stop acting as if Selena is a very nice person. She commented on Lauren's pic about how Lauren is too good for Justin to wear even as his shoes because Lauren said something about Justin is too good for Selena. So actually get the real stuff, not everything selena does is nice.

Hoveton-based app developer Pocket Places is going for gold in a London 2012 contest to discover world beating ideas for smartphone apps for visitors attending the Olympic Games this summer. The company is the only one in the region to reach the Race for Apps final with its Pocket Britain tourist information app.
Judging starts in May and Pocket Places CEO Mark Oakden said the company would use the time to add more content to the app.
Having the Olympic Games in the UK gives us a world stage and hopefully this competition can help us promote our app to a worldwide audience," he said. If we are successful then we intend to start similar tourist information apps in other countries, including the USA."
The competition is part of the Digital Shoreditch Festival, the UK's largest digital event celebrating creative and tech startup talent. The festival takes place in late May in London, adjacent to the Olympic Park, and hoping to attract 50,000 people from around the world.
"We intend Pocket Britain to become a digital tourist information centre by providing users with multimedia tourist information directly on their mobile phones," Mr Oakden said. "Using the GPS facility of a modern smartphone, our app determines a users location to provide local information, including what to do and where to stay, as well as fascinating history and entertaining stories. Content is created collaboratively, with Pocket Britain articles written by tourist boards, attractions and various other organisations. Recent collaborators include South West Tourism, Northern Ireland Tourist Board and the RAF.
"It is about time that one of the world's top digital applications came from the UK, instead of California. Who knows, perhaps the next google, twitter or facebook can come from Norfolk!"

shhh....all phones are to be handed in, before entry to any Olympic venues,not forgetting cameras and any homemade food will also be confiscated.

Seems good, fairly priced, but the company is focused on Apple products and missing a large market share with Android. Luckily for me and my Samsung Galaxy, I know my way around, but for everyone else bring an iphone.
Sunday, February 26, 2012
Pocket Britain is available on both the Apple appstore and the Android marketplace.
