Last week, a twenty-seven-year-old murder mystery was solved, grabbing headlines around the world. Former Chilean President Eduardo Frei died under mysterious circumstances in 1982, at the age of 71, as he was busily investigating accusations of human rights abuses including torture and "disappearings" by his successor, General Augusto Pinochet. A week ago Monday, a Chilean investigating judge ruled his death a homicide and charged six individuals as conspirators. The New York Times reports:
An autopsy report blamed septic shock after stomach hernia surgery, but a new autopsy this year by University of Chile pathologists identified two chemicals in his body that attack the digestive system — one that is used in mustard gas and another found in rat poison. "He was injected with toxic substances, which produced other complications that deteriorated his immune system," Judge Alejandro Madrid told reporters Monday. "That was the cause of death."
But one fact remarkably escaped attention in most English-language reporting, even while it played heavily in Spanish-language accounts: the criminal inquiry concluded that Frei was murdered by a conspiracy of doctors. The key figure named is a surgeon, accused of having administered the lethal toxins during medical procedures he supervised at a hospital. As the prosecutors charge, this doctor had close ties to the Chilean military and intelligence community and was prepared to do their bidding. Three of the other defendants are also doctors, who, according to prosecutors, knew of the plans and their implementation and stood by silently. They are charged as co-conspirators. The prosecution charges that the doctor was coopted by General Pinochet's intelligence services and told to silence forever one of the most credible voices raised against him, a former president and a political conservative. One of the dark secrets that made the long and brutal Pinochet dictatorship so effective was its cooption of the medical profession. The enlistment of a group of doctors to murder a former president marks one of the high points of this scheme.
Of course, the involvement of healthcare professionals in human rights abuses is not simply a matter of historical interest. In America's era of state-sponsored torture, healthcare professionals including medical doctors also played a decisive role. In the Justice Department's torture memoranda, while reviewing specific torture techniques, lawyers repeatedly note that doctors will be present to insure that the techniques are not applied in such a way as to cause death or the failure of vital organs. In thousands of pages of documents discussing the application of torture techniques, the names of medical professionals who participated in the torture sessions consistent with the guidance given by the Justice Department memos are simply blacked out, with the government citing the doctors' "right to privacy."
Similarly, so-called Behavioral Science Consultation Teams (BSCT) containing other healthcare professionals (psychologists and psychiatrists mainly) were deeply involved in the design and implementation of torture protocols for individual prisoners. Healthcare professionals were also involved in implementing a forced-feeding regime for prisoners held at Guantánamo (and potentially other prison sites), in violation of clear international guidelines provided by the Declaration of Malta. A suspiciously large number of these hunger-strikers have met death in detention under dubious circumstances initially dismissed by the Bush Administration as "suicides." That characterization is longer credible, and the government's failure to undertake serious investigations into those deaths today heightens concern about them.
This deep involvement of healthcare professionals in a system of torture and abuse is a profound crisis for the professions involved, and so far their response has been disgraceful. All have embraced pious statements opposing torture, and all have scurried away from actual accountability. In California, Louisiana, and Alabama, complaints have been brought against individuals known to have participated in the systematic torture and mistreatment of prisoners in direct violation of rules of ethics. One key figure in the nightmare at Guantánamo has actually emerged as the head of a medical school in Ohio. In each case, the ethics oversight board has dismissed the complaint without conducting an investigation of any sort, frequently stating that it has "full discretion not to investigate" cases it does not wish to investigate. Others in the medical profession point to government secrecy surrounding the torture programs and suggest that any efforts to investigate the role that doctors played in them would be futile. A substantial faction within the professions, led by doctors with suspicious ties with the Pentagon and the intelligence community, insists on a "safe harbor" under which doctors are entitled to rely on assurances from the government that what they do is legal. That is an effort to implement the Bush Administration's scheme to obliterate professional ethics, which prohibit involvement in torture in any form, and prohibit doctors from even being present while torture is being conducted. It parallels efforts that were undertaken by Pinochet in Chile, in fact.
The objective of these professional organizations appears to be to avoid the issue and hope that it is forgotten. This aspiration does them no credit, and it may well backfire. As President Bachelet said last week, the disclosure of the murder of President Frei "goes to show that though it may take a while, justice always prevails." The healthcare professionals who participated in the Bush-era torture schemes will also eventually be exposed. By obstructing proper investigations and accountability, professional associations will not stop this process, but they do risk further serious damage to their own reputations, and those of their members. Have they joined in a conspiracy of silence?

Riding Columbia County: The Beaver Falls Loop
Tuesday, May 27th, 2014(Photos J. Maus/BikePortland)
There's much more to riding in Columbia County than the marquee Banks-Vernonia Trail and Highway 30.
During my weekend stay at the Coastal Mountain Sporth Haus, I was lucky to have a knowledgeable local guide along for my journeys. Glen Crinklaw is co-proprietor at the Sport Haus and he also works as head of the parks department for Columbia County. On Saturday he shared his favorite ride: The Beaver Falls Loop. (more…)

The refrigerator may be the most important appliance in your home. There are many different models to choose from at Appliances Connection, including top freezer models, compact refrigeration, side-by-side fridges, and French-Door refrigerators, in a variety of colors, sizes, and price.
Appliances Connection carries top brands in refrigeration, like Frigidaire, GE, and Samsung. If you have any questions or need help choosing the right fridge or freezer for your home, contact us at 800-299-9470.
While family size and lifestyle is important in choosing which refrigerator is right for you, here are a few factors to consider before purchasing:
How much storage do you need? Besides width and height, analyze your eating habits. Do you host people frequently? Or do you eat out most nights? For the best comparison, the average family of four uses around 18 to 25 cubic feet of refrigeration.
There is a wide range of styles of refrigerators to choose from, each with advantages and disadvantages.
Top Freezer Refrigerator: If you are looking for a discount refrigeration, a top freezer model would be your best bet. Its compact size is perfect for a smaller home or apartment and is the most common in households.
Size-by-Side Refrigerator: Modern and stylish with a great amount of storage; however, shelving can be narrow. Generally, the fridge takes up two-thirds of the space.
Bottom Freezer Refrigerator: Bottom freezer refrigerators are perfect for a person looking for the maximum level of convenience. While it�s designed to limit the need to bend over for the most-used food item, the drawer-like function of the freezer can lead to frozen storage issues.
French Door Refrigerators: Similar to a bottom freezer model, except the doors open from the center. Appealing and complementary for most kitchen designs, it�s not hard to see why it�s the current trend in refrigeration.
Today�s refrigerators don�t just keep your food fresh; they have features like water dispensing and moisture control. Additionally, many models now have adjustable and spill-proof shelving.
The more efficient your refrigerator is, the less it costs to operate � and the more money in your pocket. Models such as ENERGY STAR� refrigerators consume almost 40 percent less energy than a standard refrigerator.
Appliances Connection offers free nationwide in-home delivery, no sales tax, and full manufacturer warranties on all brand new refrigerators. We can even haul your old fridge away.

A far cry from Raymond Briggs' nuclear warning, Picha's 'adult cartoon' combines both readings of its title in what '60s counter-culture would probably have mistaken for Swiftian satire. Following the Bomb, Planet Earth has polarised into two nations, both deficient in the standard number of limbs and sexual characteristics. All the men, who have their arses blown off, are gay and live in an American-Soviet zone, while the multi-breasted women live in Vaginia. A fourth world war threatens, and only Fred, the last possible superhero, can avert it. The final conflict is fought out by a megaton tit and a megaton prick. It is all determinedly gross, with something to offend everyone.

Will this cost money once released? If so any plans on telling us how much? :) REALLY looking forward to play this game IIIH: D
This member has provided no bio about themself...
Will this cost money once released? If so any plans on telling us how much? :) REALLY looking forward to play this game IIIH: D
Risen was pretty good really.
this looks great:D keep it up^^
yeye whatever, when will you realise THERE IS NO GOD?! oh myyyyyy such a disaaaster
Ears are too small, i would like to see the nose a bit wider too, head is too tall, reast looks fins
this is ********, **** you blizzard, ruining a game like that =/
the tale of why this isnt being developed for PC x)
looks awesome!
pretty high, but since the one i made it for is fine with it... AND he wants me to att polies (make it less sharp)
anyway its 1546 quads&tris, and i really havent found a way of re ducing it withoug removing important geometry
well i dont know lol xD was an impulse thing, i got so annoyed with the upper half of the head so i gave up and just made some silly things with the crease brush
u need to work on those torches heh, but other than that it looks brilliant!
the excuse that the engine is to complex is really just bullcrap, there are more, and there is less experienced modders, heck there are modders who could make their own engine if they had the time to
really cool looking helmet O__o very nice model and texture work
roof of the left and the building next to the soldier thingy needs work: lacking of detail and is looking quite messy
other than that you got some cool stuff going on here.
well he would need solid proof, and he havent shown any proof yet..
iam not even going to go into the whole stolen model thing, not worth it.
great model.
screen shot is made by pressing the pint screen button (prnt scrn) on the keyboard then pasting it into paint (ctrl + v)
oh my god thats a hawt render setting!
the lower parts (handle) of the model looks quite blocky and messy, also parts of it looks very uncofirmatable to hold onto, since its so blocky (giivng of a sharp look)
the upper part looks brilliant though
just need working on those animations, but i supppose its a placeholder? x) you got some amazing lightning going on there, graphically very impressive
you got some great stuff going on here! cool! watching :)
well, I tend to buy indie games more often than AAA titels
same quality, less money.
60$ or 10$ for the same, or better quality? 10$ ofc.
I am totally supportive of demos, but theyre getting fewer and fewer, as the greater companies say: "they cost to produce", and thats true.
however, I have definitly seen a decrease in demos, both on indie and AAA, which is quite sad.
I try before I buy, and if I see a demo I grab that one instead of the torrent.
Also: Multiplayer helps, i know all games cant have it, but it helps
they miight get in problem if they do that though?
the verson shouldnt be a problem here x) do you use gimp or photoshop for texturing?
if your going with maya or 3ds max you better be cash ready.
Blender is a good choice, but a lot different than 3ds max or maya
thanks, ive done head modelling before, in 3ds max, however its a lot easier when sculpting i fint it, so iam definitly going to keep doing organic stuff in Zbrush
But he has got a point :) getting tired of all "overly sexually appealing" girls. Not that it's anything wrong with them but.. it's, refreshing to see something else ^^
Great model, great texture would LOVE ot see a turnaround and a wireframe!
You've got a LOT of details in the front of the model - but hardly anything in the body itself of the gun :/
The anime is based of this Visual Novel.
Certanly did not expect to see this here
If its a trailer, then i recommend doing some cutting aswell, you know.. like normal trailers xD
"moddable" whats the "" for?
its still modified (modded) however you look at it.
Only question is, how reprogrammable is it? can you completly remake the game so to speak?
But it would be fun to play around in.
the engine it is in works very fine.. and if anything a KF2 would be best
so, youre basicly starting a NEW project?
my guess is that it isnt resource needy at all considering my laptop, which barely can run binding of isaac,minecraft, dungeon defenders and such games runs this really smoothly
The less stuff a hud has is better in my opinion: I woudlnt want a stance or weapon icon.
Barely an aim icon, I prefer "realism" in that regard, like Red orchestra 2, there is barely any hud at all there.
In crysis 1 and 2 you could set it so you didnt have an crosshair and such.
well thats my 2 cents anyway, having a minimap could be nice though
Not for this gun: i know it is incomplete, i had a hard time finding references covering the iron sight and rear sight well, and was bigger than 600pxs.. x) Thanks!
They kind of become black towards the edge, might be a smoothing problem? Or it's part of the texture? anyway, i think that's what makes it look blunt
It takes x amount of years* to develop a game, especially a 16$ one.
Just a question, from the videos, there's notmuch to test really is there? maybe try the gun handling and thats it? since you have no finished map as far as i can see and no enemies?
well, judging from the commentaries up there, it seems like it is essentially because of lazyness alt because of grudges in the team =/
Too bad, singelplayer would be quite nice indeed.
depends a lot on the machine really.
Iam about 100% sure that what we are seeing here, is not an 700 poly model.
was that supposed to be a compliment for him?
what is the polycount? it looks like it is a couple thousands...
Thank you, and yes, you have a good point there.
texture size of 1024x1024 was an deliberate choice, and do you mind explaining what you mean with "the wood doesn't look real", since by saying that you could just aswell say: "it looks bad" and i would bet an equal amount of information from that.
thanks for the crits though, and thanks for commenting
Yeye whatevs. I dont think Football is included with hands and wrestling.
your best bet is using planes with opacity maps
bah sorry for slow asnwer=) but no, i am not going to use this in anything.
I have a pretty dark screen, and i can see them perfectly? you gotta have the lights on ur screen really dark O__o
I can easily see how fun this got to be to do!
looking great, however did you use a 16+ cylinder to the barrel? thats unnecessary, can pump out more detail to the gun itself istead!
looks great!
the handle doesnt look to comfy doesnt it? istead of rounding just the edges, i would ugh how to putit? Pull out some polies a bit so it will look more comfy:P looks good otherwise, i would also take Wirds advices into account =)
ugh, blurry picture, hard to focus!
looks like a great model however! :D
looking quiet neit!! :D any chance for a wire shot?
seems to be a huge waste of polies at the barrels, and the barrels could use some more interesting texture on em, same for the "body", moar detail on texture!!and less bevels at the sides!
the spikes in the front, what are those? 32sided?
lower down the polycount a bit and make a UVmap, and make a nice texture with a bit more details and it will be grreat!
G-rreeea-----tttt!!! :D
the metal is looking really plain and booring and the wood is way to bright and plastic looking. Model is looking fine
mm but better than red, as of now it blurrs into the backround, not good!
however the backround look AMAZING!: D
Glad to see you guys are alive and kicking! It looks brilliant!
however this is not hell..
it is the purgatory between hell and heaven
for some reason i like this one more, however if for a "hell theme" the other one is better, but this one screams more Purgatory to me
i dont think the blood is anything serious
the gun looks amazing!
use smoothing groups, since you had time to do a render i suppose 2 minutes wouldnt have killed you? it looks awesome however! :D
however you never said it looks to fat>.>
way to fat imo, and more details needed! other than that looks good
no not hard, but just saying it might be a good idea, i can see it however i do need to concentrate a lot since the colours are so close each other.
either make the model material darker/lighter or make the backround darker/lighter, hard to see.
Model itself looks really really great
what!? >.< weird ill try reupload
2739 polies are still a bit too much for that
haha yeah, simple method though, add a "skylight" and enable "Light tracer", it is simple yet very effective^^ thanks
i can see there is a little bit of poly reduction which can be done^^ like i can see a unnecessary line going through the top + bottom + back and front of the model, but it looks great^^
i wonder where the clips go...? model looks great otherwise and the wood texture is just awesome, however cant say i like the bolts (they are huge and seem to do no good at all?) and the "paintings" on the "bodys" left side. other than that it is amazing
excellent model, excellent texture! love it!^^
would like to see more of the wire, as it is so weak looking i can barely see it, the model looks great however^^
i can see them perfectly fine, excellent model!^^
heard of smoothing groups? look into it
oh and you could easily take away a basicly all polygons from the clip and put into the model itself, same goes for the barrel, i guess at 18+ sided cylinder? now tell me WHY is that necessary? and why is every edge chamfered? that is just plainly a waste of polies
then bodies are a lot harder to make than M4s and require totally different modelling techniques.
u have to change some things at the handle, its probably becuz u triangulated it, can be changed if u remove the edges there and then cut new ones to make it triangulated ;) Great model otherwise^^ very accurate
Explain noob model? =P like in simplistic or? cuz many games uses like... a box, for a crate, is it still noobish? =P
great model - the texture is gr8!
really great^^ looks lowpoly aswell? i like it :D
i DONT like the head =P i would remake it. i just dont like it, the body is good but way to thin.
for a model without a ref that is awesome!
his hands look like theyre too thin =P otherwise its great
Daz, there is never anything wrong with concepts as pictures from movies and such doesnt always give you the information needed to make that thing=P
cool concept
that wasnt very good, did you subdivide it? if so there might be some problems right there with the low poly =P
try redoing that place from scratch
yeah, you could eaily reduce the poly count to around 300 istead of closer 400 =P well, great model and texture^^
theyre just showing stuff that they will implement in the mod=P
sweet looking cool game! ^^
agreed =P great otherwise^^ maybe a bit to... clean or whatever:P
if you scroll up and down it looks like the squares in the paper follows along:D
Cool !
isnt it a bit overkill to have Modelled all of the windows? would lookd just fine - i have no idea how many polies the RA2 engine can handle but imo thats a bit overkill ^^ not saying its bad - it really isnt its Great ^^
Farcry 2 har almost ONLY forests, wich i disliked ;) i want more of.. THIS.. more Africa! =P
agree with CrowbarSka
looking good except for mountains ;) keep it up
i like everything except the head :P dont like it^^ otherwise GJ =P
well, first, you already get too little ammo, why do so you get less? you get 600caps, you buy ammo for 600caps and BOOM theyre gone =P but i agree at the XP but thats about it =P
the graphics was good in FC2 =P i dont complain :P
Well, you know Egypt isnt that Cloudy too often =P make it less Cloudy and its Gr8 =P

Air Jordan 1 Low "Neutral Grey" – U.S. Release Date by Patrick Johnson 3 Comments
April 23, 2013 BY John Kim / 7
Just yesterday we showed you a pretty interesting sample of the black/green/red Air Jordan 1 Retro '93, and although a release hasn't been confirmed, we do know that another pair with reds and greens is indeed releasing very soon. Joining that "Playoffs" colorway of the Air Jordan 1 Retro '93 is this energetic mix of White, Electric Green, and Red, featuring contrast stitching on the Swoosh and on the midsole. Although the red/neon has no bearing on the OG colorways of the Air Jordan VIII, it's still a pretty clean colorway with the Neutral Grey toe-box providing that "Hare"-like appeal. Expect these on June 1st, so check out the additional angles below for a better look.

This Family Heirloom, belonging to my great grandmother is a perfect example of what would be seen on only the best dressed dining tables of the era.Made by the Derby Silver Company in Birmingham Connecticut.The company was founded in 1872 by partners Simpson,Hall and Watson Miller.They made just about anything made of silver or silver plate from toiletry items to trophies.Quite often they were also commissioned to produce one of a kind special orders.Due to the depression the company closed it's doors in 1933.This exquisite example is heavily silver plated which has remained in excellent condition due partly to that fact and that it has been well cared for.The shape of these early butter dishes was to house butter that was sold at the time in 1 pound circular cakes.The bottom of the dish served as a ice chamber with the pierced liner resting above.A knife rest was added to the side to keep diners from using their already used knives ( sort of a NO double dipping idea ) away from this precious commodity.As Shown in photos this delicious piece is in amazing condition.These pieces were sold without the butter knives ,you were to use your own from your silverware set.The one I am including is the one that has always accompanied the dish and is lovely along side and is sterling with a floral design and a letter "S" engraving.The dish measures 10" x 7 1/2" and sits almost 7" high.

Pet Medications: Issues to Consider When Purchasing Online or at a Retail Pharmacy
Are you considering purchasing your pet's medications from an Internet or mail-order company, or having its prescriptions filled at a community or retail pharmacy? Before you purchase medications from a source other than your veterinarian, you may want to consider these issues.
Pet Prescriptions: Your Animal's Health Always Comes First
Your veterinarian has extensive education in animal medications and is best qualified to prescribe the correct medication for your pet in the right form at the appropriate dosage. There are important differences between pets and people in terms of dosages, potential adverse reactions, and reasons for use of various medications. It is important that your veterinarian is involved in all decisions regarding your pet's medications.
Fall's Seasonal Hazards for Pets
Now that summer has drawn to an end, it's important to remember all those upcoming seasonal toxins that we need to be aware of! With Halloween and Thanksgiving right around the corner, now's the time to educate yourself on the pet poisons that are around your house commonly seen by Pet Poison Helpline (PPH) during this time of the year.
Halloween Safety Tips for Pet Owners
Tips for keeping your pet safe on the spookiest night of the year, and in the weeks leading up to it.
Oregon Compounding Centers, Inc., dba Creative Compounds, Recalls Human and Veterinary Sterile Products
Oregon Compounding Centers, Inc., dba Creative Compounds, is voluntarily recalling certain unexpired human and veterinary sterile products to the consumer level due to lack of sterility assurance. The recalled veterinary products include: Apomorphine HCL 3mg/ml injectable, Cyclosporine-E Plus 2% Ophthalmic, and Polysulf Glucosamin Glycan 10% injectable.
Do You Need Your Own DEA License?
While not having your own DEA license may save an associate or the practice the cost of the license fee, there are several reasons why this is not advisable.
Animal Welfare Update: Fall 2014
With three months left in the calendar year, 2014 already has been significant for the welfare of animals, and for Oregon in particular. Following is a look at recent developments as well as highlights from several court cases that have bearing on the state's approach to animal welfare.
West Nile Virus
West Nile virus can affect humans, horses, and many types of birds. It is carried by mosquitoes, which become carriers by feeding on infected birds.
Bravo Recalls Select Lots of Bravo Turkey and Chicken Pet Foods Due to Salmonella
Bravo of Manchester, CT is recalling select lots of Bravo Turkey and Chicken pet foods for dogs and cats because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella. Salmonella can affect animals eating the products and there is risk to humans from handling contaminated pet products, especially if they have not thoroughly washed their hands after having contact with the products or any surfaces exposed to these products.
Hydrocodone Combination Products to Become Schedule II Controlled Substances
Concerned about the diversion of hydrocodone combination products (HCPs) and the potential for abuse, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has rescheduled all hydrocodone combination products as Schedule II, effective October 6, 2014. The new scheduling impacts all HCPs, including liquids such as Tussionex, Hycodan and all generic equivalent products. Single-entity hydrocodone has always been a C-II drug.

E.L.F. Luscious Liquid Lipstick - ALL

ELF lip products are some of my favorites. I often receive them as gifts and stocking stuffers, and have acquired a pretty large collection of their various colors and formulas. The luscious liquid lipsticks are, in truth, more gloss than lip stick. While many of them provide a tint of color, they are very sheer and wearable for most anyone. I have Maple Sugar, Bark, Brownie Points, Ruby Slipper, Pink Lemonade, Cherry Tart, Raspberry, Nude Pink, Baby Lips, and Perfect Pink. My favorites are Ruby Slipper (sheer red with gold shimmer), Pink Lemonade (a slightly pinker YLBB), Maple Sugar, Bark, and Brownie Points (all very similar, slightly darker YLBB shades). Perfect Pink and Nude Pink are both a little too light/pink for me if put on too thick, but a light, single layer adds gloss without the color. They have a twist up pen-sized applicator with a sponge tip (side note: I've never had a problem with the tip getting funky, as other reviewers have mentioned), and the smell is not my favorite - a strong mint with something else, enough to dock a lippie. Still, at $1 a piece, I'll definitely be reordering my favorites (I'm looking at you, Ruby Slipper!), probably several times over.

It was OK. It says lipstick on the packaging but it isn't pigmented enough to be a lipstick, its more like a thick lip gloss. I actually liked the thickness of this, but I can see how some might not. It has a minty scent and taste which I liked as well. Overall would repurchase as a gloss in maybe a dark shade so I could get at least some pigmentation out of it.

I see these more as a sheer gloss than as a lipstick, but for the price I find them very good (especially as Ive only ever bought them in half-price sales).
Lasting power is so-so and youll definitely need to reapply after eating, but I dont find them too bad for a gloss and Ive had much worse. They also are quite comfortable on the lip and not too tacky.
I quite like to layer them over an actual lipstick applied lightly as a stain to improve lasting power. Raspberry is my favourite one, and it works well over a sheer application of MAC Russian red (applied with a brush), to get a red-lipped look thats not too in your face.

I bought #2121 Strawberry for a dollar. I did not like upon aplication how sticky it felt to me, it is very slimy and uneven when I applied it. The color is alright, a sheer pinkish-red, but I do not like the formula. Perhaps it is just this shade or something but I am not enthused to go try any other of these liquid lipsticks. I do find the packaging fun though.

Many E.L.F. products are on the cheap side, and have poor pigmentation, texture, or wear. This stuff, however, is fantastic! I tried it on a whim and fell in love. I have several colors and duplicates, so I can keep a few with me. ONLY $1 each!!!
Although the name says lipstick, the texture is a gloss. But not a sticky gloss...it actually feels good to me, and has a nice scent/taste. The only con to me is that they have so little product in them, they don't last long.

I LOVE these lipsticks! Great pigmentation. Very creamy and smooth. Some have scent and some feel minty! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!
Only downside is they have short lasting power, so need to re-apply every hour. BUTTT it's 1 dollar so common!!!

Nothing is even in this thing. There is almost NO pigmentation in the gloss and you got to crank it up so much for pay off it SUCKS even though it was only a dollar it was a waste of money.

I know that these glosses (because that is what they are - they are nothing like any lipstick despite the name) are very popular here but I have to admit I'm pretty bewildered as to why. I've tried these in a few colours now - bark, pink lemonade, cherry tart and ruby slipper. Only ruby slipper actually showed up on my lips - the other shades just looked clear. OK, I don't mind a clear gloss, but if I want a clear gloss I will buy one. I don't enjoy buying something that promises colour and then being disappointed time and time again.
On the positive side, these glosses have a good amount of shine, and although sticky, they are much less sticky than a MAC dazzleglass for instance. They have a pleasant minty fragrance and taste. The packaging has been ok for me, it's a bit overkill having so much plastic for a tiny amount of product, but I haven't had them break or leak so I can't complain. The product emerged onto the doe foot applicator smoothly for me, I think you just have to be patient with the click/twist mechanism, and the applicator its-self was pleasant to use. That was until tonight, when the only gloss in the range I use regularly (Ruby Slipper) started to smell! After a month? I am pretty fastidious and I am sorry but I cannot use something where the applicator becomes skanky, and so fast, too. It's gone in the bin. Sorry ELF, I'm not going to bother buying any more of these.

I was so skeptical because of the mixed reviews but I went ahead and bought Baby Lips and Pink Lemonade and I've never turned back! I have every shade. I have a ton of MAC lipsticks but I never use them as much as these lip products! They stay on all day and I don't have to worry about it getting on my teeth. Super comfy, beautiful on the lips and only $1! My new HG product! Run and purchase these! You won't regret it! I'm obsessed with this lip product! I wear it everyday. When I run out I will definitely repurchase!

Not the best but not the worst! I didn't care to much for this liquid lip stick it don't show to well and I don't like the sticky feeling

Well, OP, let's take it the rest of the way down the line of thinking you're promoting.
Maybe you should stop using those government-provided roads and bridges. Stop filing medicare claims, using a 401k, and while you're at it, get off the internet, since it was the government research that created it in the first place.
I think this TPTB line of thinking leads to the ultimate doom that is so sought after on GLP. Maybe some of you will be happier off the grid as completely self-supporting family units, but I don't really believe it.
Believing you are being controlled completely just limits your own world views.
I'm sorry I just don't understand how you got to this state of pessimism, and why you would want to stay in it.
Please verify you're human:

Buddhist Pilgrimage Sites: India
Five years after his enlightenment, the Buddha was invited to Vaisali by its ruler, a Licchavi (Nepalese) prince. The city was affected by drought and plague, but as soon as the Buddha arrived there was a thunderstorm with torrential rain which cleansed the city and its people. The Buddha stayed and preached for seven days, according to legend, converting 84,000 people to Buddhism.
Records indicate that the Buddha made several visits to Vaisali for the purpose of preaching to the monastic community (sangha) and setting down many instructions and rules. The Licchavi rulers constructed monastic buildings (vihara) for the Buddha's use and it was here that a monkey took the Buddha's alms bowl, filled it with honey and then offered it to the Buddha.

STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more. Separately, TheStreet Ratings team rates 21VIANET GROUP INC as a "hold" with a ratings score of C. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate 21VIANET GROUP INC (VNET) a HOLD. The primary factors that have impacted our rating are mixed - some indicating strength, some showing weaknesses, with little evidence to justify the expectation of either a positive or negative performance for this stock relative to most other stocks. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, solid stock price performance and expanding profit margins. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including deteriorating net income, disappointing return on equity and generally higher debt management risk." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:- The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 21.3%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 34.4%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displayed by a decline in earnings per share.
- Compared to its closing price of one year ago, VNET's share price has jumped by 134.57%, exceeding the performance of the broader market during that same time frame. Regarding the stock's future course, our hold rating indicates that we do not recommend additional investment in this stock despite its gains in the past year.
- 37.75% is the gross profit margin for 21VIANET GROUP INC which we consider to be strong. It has increased from the same quarter the previous year. Regardless of the strong results of the gross profit margin, the net profit margin of -25.90% is in-line with the industry average.
- Return on equity has greatly decreased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of major weakness within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Internet Software & Services industry and the overall market, 21VIANET GROUP INC's return on equity significantly trails that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- The company, on the basis of change in net income from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and the Internet Software & Services industry. The net income has significantly decreased by 1375.6% when compared to the same quarter one year ago, falling from $1.91 million to -$24.42 million.

Founded in 1934, the Liechtenstein Football Association (Liechtensteiner Fussballverband or LFV) represents a principality of only 35,000 people. However, its senior national side has played in UEFA European Championship and FIFA World Cup qualifying tournaments since 1994, and, with a total of 100 teams covering both sexes and all age groups, the association has approximately 1,900 registered footballers.
The best of the Alpine country's footballing talent is displayed at one of seven senior clubs who compete in the Swiss league system. FC Vaduz are the oldest, established in 1932, followed by FC Balzers (1932), FC Triesen (1932), FC Schaan (1932), FC Ruggell (1958), FC USV Eschen-Mauren (1963) and FC Triesenberg (1972). Vaduz are the only fully professional outfit.
Vaduz, the nation's capital, is also home to the Rheinpark Stadium, built to FIFA and UEFA specifications and opened in 1998. The stadium, one of seven football facilities boasting 21 pitches in all, has 6,127 covered seats. It is from this setup that 11 players have emerged to become professionals in major European leagues.
The LFV joined the game's European and world bodies, UEFA and FIFA, in 1974. International recognition was a positive development for soccer in Liechtenstein, enabling the association to play its part in the football family. In 2003, UEFA entrusted the LFV with staging the UEFA European Under-19 Championship. Five years later the UEFA Executive Committee, meeting in Liechtenstein for the first time, named the country as host nation of the 2010 UEFA European U17 Championship. Liechtenstein, bordered by Austria and Switzerland, was also a venue for staff events relating to the UEFA EURO 2008 finals held in these neighbouring countries.
A milestone event on the pitch occurred when Vaduz were promoted to the professional ranks of Swiss football's second tier, the Challenge League, in 2001. Vaduz bettered that achievement by spending the 2008/09 season in Switzerland's top flight, the Super League. Vaduz, Balzers, Triesen, Schaan, Ruggell, Eschen-Mauren and Triesenberg – and their reserve teams – also contest the Liechtenstein Football Cup, which the LFV has organised every year since 1946.
Since all these clubs play their league football in the Swiss pyramid, the cup is the closest thing to a national championship, albeit with a knockout system. Vaduz have the most cup victories with 41 including 14 in a row from 1998-2011. The winners entered the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup between 1992 and 1999, since when they have proceeded to the qualifying rounds of the UEFA Cup or UEFA Europa League.
Liechtenstein's senior national side made their debut in a 1-0 defeat by Switzerland in Balzers on 9 March 1982. It was another 12 years before their competitive bow in EURO '96 qualifying: a 4-1 loss to Northern Ireland on 20 April 1994. Daniel Hasler scored the historic consolation goal. Liechtenstein have featured in every subsequent qualification tournament: 1998 FIFA World Cup, UEFA EURO 2000, 2002 World Cup, UEFA EURO 2004, 2006 World Cup, UEFA EURO 2008, 2010 World Cup and UEFA EURO 2012. Their best performance was an eight-point haul in the 2006 World Cup campaign, with home and away wins against Luxembourg.
It is at junior level that Liechtenstein have reached a final tournament, qualifying for the UEFA European Under-16 Championship (now U17) in Scotland in 1998. The principality's most promising young footballers – aged U14, U15, U16 and U18 – participate in the youth development competitions of the Swiss Football Association (SFV-ASF).
So the LFV had much to celebrate on its 75th anniversary in 2009. It marked the occasion with a glamour friendly against Portugal, followed by an U16 mini-tournament involving the hosts, Switzerland, Germany and Austria. Finally, on 11 September, the LFV held a gala evening for the entire football family.
Nationality: German
Date of birth: 17 June 1955
Association president since: 2012
• Matthias Voigt has been a passionate hobby footballer since his early youth. A knee injury meant an early end to his playing days, but he quickly found that a career as a football official also suited him. He lives in Triesenberg with his family.
• From 2008 until 2012 he was vice-president of FC Triesenberg. In 2011, Voigt was elected as vice-president of the Liechtenstein Football Association (LFV) and in March 2012, he became president at the delegates' meeting. A selfemployed entrepeneur, he worked in financial services and corporate consulting, and was president of the Liechtenstein Investment Fund Association for 12 years until February 2012.
• Voigt is especially keen on improving the grassroots aspect of the game in Liechtenstein: "We need to assume that over the short or long term, we will have less youngsters playing football. There are seven clubs in our country which require youth teams and also have a need to nurture them. They have a socio-political responsibility. We need to make sure football remains attractive and ensure that boys and girls keep on coming to play football. We also need to work out special structures which will help us to develop talents further and get them to an elite level."
Nationality: Liechtensteiner
Date of birth: 4 July 1963
General secretary since: 2007
• In 2003, Roland Ospelt started as chief executive of the Liechtenstein Football Association (LFV), and in 2007 took over the position of general secretary from Oliver Gerstgrasser.
• Before becoming a full-time member at the LFV, he had already been on the association's youth football committee, and was working for FC Vaduz in an honorary position.
• As a qualified sports manager, Ospelt is eager to develop football in Liechtenstein in all aspects, from grassroots to elite level, and to confirm football's position as the leading sport in Liechtenstein.

Having recently bought a car myself, I'm familiar with the vagaries of used automobiles. My headlamps are a bit out of weak and the carburetor needs some tweaking, for instance.
But learning the quirks of a new car is half the fun of buying used. I shudder to imagine how much joy I'd have discovering how to work this one-of-a-kind Batmobile based on a '73 Opel GT and stuffed to the gills with early '90s electronics.
Check out some of the stuff that was inside:
1. SONY Digital Navigation System #NVX-F1603. SONY Magic Link System with pager. This is the original vehicle PDA system before there were PDAs. Google Sony Magic Link System to get an idea. I do not know how to use it but it is there. I think you send emails, messaging, etc.
4. SONY Magic Link SkyTel Card
6. SONY Hi-8 VCR
7. Pioneer CD player DEH-85 in the dash….comes with the batman theme on cd!
8. Alpine Bat Phone #91530
11.Super Nintendo NES Game system with Batman Forever game…….yes, a game system that plays batman!
13.Alpine 80-80 Remote Commander RMX 38 (something to do with the alarm I think)
14.Alpine Alarm 8401 with paging system, unlocks and opens doors, windows…It will take you a full day just to learn the alarm system.
And you know what the kicker is? This thing sold for just nine grand. Breaks my heart. I would totally have paid ten just to make this my daily driver.

Romney wins Wyoming caucuses
By MEAD GRUVER, Associated Press Writer 15 minutes ago
CASPER, Wyo. - Mitt Romney captured his first win of
the Republican presidential race on Saturday,
prevailing in Wyoming caucuses for a much-needed boost
to his candidacy three days before the New Hampshire
The former Massachusetts governor won eight delegates,
former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson got two and
California Rep. Duncan Hunter won one, meaning no
other candidate could beat Romney. Caucuses were still
being held to decide all 12 delegates at stake.
The victory was a welcome development for Romney,
coming two days after his loss to Mike Huckabee in the
Iowa caucuses and three days before the
first-in-the-nation primary in New Hampshire. Those
two states have attracted most of the political
attention. Wyoming had scheduled its GOP county
conventions earlier to attract candidates to the state
but had only modest results.
Romney visited Wyoming in August and November and
three of his five sons campaigned in the state. One
son, Josh Romney, owns a ranch in southwest Wyoming.
"Number one, he campaigned here," delegate Leigh
Vosler of Cheyenne said of Romney. "I think that
helped while some other candidates ignored us. But
also he's the right person for the job."
Hunter, Thompson and Ron Paul all stopped by the state
visits they probably wouldn't have made except for
this year's early conventions and candidates have
sent Wyoming's GOP voters a flood of campaign mail.
Huckabee, the former Arkansas governor, did not visit
Wyoming and drew little support. Arizona Sen. John
McCain and former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani also
did not visit and received little support.
"I think we're encouraged that the voters in Wyoming
value that my dad had spent time here," Josh Romney
The traditional leadoff nomination contests in Iowa
and New Hampshire have dominated the attention of both
candidates and the national media in recent months,
and no candidates had visited Wyoming in the four
weeks leading up to the caucuses. Hunter was the last
to visit the state on Dec. 4.
Tom Sansonetti, the county convention organizer,
maintained Saturday that moving the state's caucuses
ahead was the right thing to do.
"The ultimate goal is not how many times we appear on
Katie Couric," Sansonetti said. "The ultimate goal was
to have attention paid to rank-and-file Republicans by
national candidates."
In addition, he said more Wyoming Republicans have
become involved in the process.
Wyoming Republicans also paid a price for jumping
ahead. The Republican National Committee has slashed
half of Wyoming's 28 national convention delegates.
National party leaders similarly penalized Florida,
Michigan, New Hampshire and South Carolina for moving
up the dates of their nomination contests.
RNC rules require the punishment for states that hold
their nominating contests earlier than Feb. 5. Iowa,
which held caucuses on Thursday, will not be penalized
because, technically, the caucuses are not binding on
convention delegates. Nevada, which plans to hold its
caucuses on Jan. 19, will not be penalized for the
same reason.
Besides the 12 delegates chosen at Saturday's county
conventions in Wyoming, two delegates to be chosen at
a statewide convention in May will also be sent to the
national convention in Minneapolis.
