We love Record Store Day and have put together a really cool piece of vinyl for it this year!
Over the years we have done a bunch of in stores at Zia Record Exchange, and in September of 2013, we recorded our live performance at the Thunderbird location, in Phoenix, AZ. We have been holding onto it for something special, and this is it!
Tegan and Sara Live at Zia Records
I Was A Fool
Back In Your Head
Goodbye Goodbye
Call It Off
Our art director Emy Storey took the opportunity to use one of our favourite Lindsey Byrnes images from our Heartthrob photo shoot for the cover. We were very close to using it for the cover of Heartthrob, so we are really happy to get an opportunity to use it for RSD!
The vinyl will be a 12 inch LP, cut at 45rpm in opaque aqua blue. Zia locations will exclusively have a limited amount of opaque grimace purple!
We also designed a special tote bag, the perfect size for toting around your RSD scores. We'll let you know where you can get the album and the bag as soon as we have info! In the mean time, keep counting down the days to April 18, Record Store Day 2015!

Along Came Polly
Ben Stiller carries on with his trademark neurotic mantle as Reuben Feffer an anxiety-ridden heartbroken insurance risk assessor who finds impulsive love with Polly Prince (Jennifer Aniston) a flaky fly-by-night slacker with a blind ferret. Reuben recently dumped his new bride (Debra Messing) on their honeymoon after catching her enflagrante with a scuba instructor (played wonderfully by Hank Azaria) and decides to go in the opposite dating direction with spicy foods and dirty salsa dancing. Screenwriter John Hamburg ("Meet The Parents") makes his directorial debut in this Ben Stiller vehicle that never gets off the ground. Hank Azaria ("Shattered Glass") pops as the scandalous French scuba instructor with an overactive libido, and Philip Seymour Hoffman ("Cold Mountain") scene-steals as an ego-driven community theater actor. For a movie with a theme of living life without deferring to fear of the risks involved, the filmmakers don't take chances in breaking the mold of run-of-the-mill romantic comedies. Rated PG-13. 90 mins. (C) (Two Stars)

Oh, Cindy, that is a gorgeous Zinnia! I wish I hadn't put that pack back! Your seedlings are so healthy! I believe that I just might try WS next yr. :)
Cindy, if they are Gerbera Daisies, cut off all the old blooms, keep watered if dry, & give some liquid feed. It may take awhile, but I bet they WILL recover if they are Gerbera Daisies. You have a "green thumb", so just be patient & give it time. Plants given to us from special people are priceless!
Cindy, How wonderful now to be very careful in transplanting your new purple Zinnias... I would like to get a pkg. what was the company name you got them from...
Cindy, wow!
Very pretty, Robin! I love iris too, bearded types especially. Thanks for the eye candy! Good luck with your division! Take care all!
A few months ago I posted a photo of an Iris I liberated, I managed to get a photo from the orginal spot of them blooming. Mine isn't big enough to bloom but maybe next year. Also, they seem to be dwarfs.
I had to keep myself from weeding, and I really wanted to move some away from the border since they were being sat on.
Welcome to the group Alana
Thank's Harry.
Thank's Grant,I enjoy any info on flowers and gardening..

While we love surprises most of the time, waking up to a major zit is our idea of a full-blown catastrophe. Keep blemishes from making unwanted entrances with this soothing, hydrating cleanser. It's made with certified-organic botanicals that break down pore-clogging debris. The impressive gel formula is made with an organic juice base of sweet cherry, lemon, and aloe, which are all rich in healing nutrients and antioxidants. Coconut and sugar extracts remove blemish-causing gunk and oil while respecting your skin's moisture barrier. Use this cleanser regularly to see visible improvement.
Every time I wash my face I can't help but touch it because it feels so soft and smooth! I am a little sensitive to smell, which was a little off putting at first but I have gotten used to it. But besides that I think it has been great and plan on purchasing a full size very soon.
5When I got this sample I was a little bummed because although I have combination skin, I'm lucky to only get the very occasional blemish, so it didn't seem relevant to me. I decided to give it a shot because I was excited to finally try this brand. It seemed to cleanse well, but with no blemishes I couldn't judge it's acne fighting power. Soon after using it a few times, I realized my skin looked terrible, and without putting the two together, I kept using it to fight the new and frequent blemishes. I had changed absolutely nothing in my routine or diet other than the wash, and after a friend who also sampled it said it was making her break out, I decided to take a break and see if my skin cleared up. Almost instantly after going back to my old wash my skin was back to normal. I've stopped using the wash and my skin looks a million times better again, after changing nothing else in my routine or activities. I find it ironic that it's supposed to fight acne, and it did nothing but cause it.

Phantom(2013)The haunted Captain of a Soviet submarine holds the fate of the world in his hands. Forced to leave his family behind, he is charged with leading a covert mission cloaked in mystery. For more about Phantom and the Phantom Blu-ray release, see Phantom Blu-ray Review published by Casey Broadwater on June 25, 2013 where this Blu-ray release scored 2.5 out of 5. Starring: Ed Harris, David Duchovny, William Fichtner, Lance Henriksen, Johnathon Schaech, Jason Beghe Director: Todd Robinson » See full cast & crew Phantom Blu-ray, Video QualityPhantom surfaces on Blu-ray with a strong 1080p/AVC-encoded presentation. The movie was shot digitally with Red Epic cameras, so while you won't see any film grain, you will see a fairly equivalent layer of inherent digital noise, particularly in the darker scenes. The image seems true to source, thoughno obvious DNR or edge enhancement filtering hereand, for the most part, it looks fantastic. Fine textural detail is almost always visible in the actors' faces and uniforms, and the generally realistic color grading is balanced and consistent, with good contrast and density. The lone potential quibble is that some of the exterior CGI submarine shots are extremely dark. If you've got a screen prone to glare, you'll probably want to wait to watch Phantom at night, with the lights off. Otherwise, no problems here. Phantom Blu-ray, Audio QualityLet's give Phantom this tooits sound design is excellent, especially for a fairly low-budget film. The submarine setting gives the film's lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround track plenty to do, filling the soundfield near-constantly with the ominous noises inherently present in a metal tube drifting under the cold, dark ocean. The deep, resonant clangs of something hitting the hull. The pneumatic hisses and steam-sprays and gurgles. The low engine rumble. The haunting sonar pings. The bubbly whir of torpedoes passing from one speaker to another. It's all very creepy, very realistic, and it sounds greatdynamically solid and clear throughout the range. The American-accented dialogue is clean and balanced too, with no muffling or peaking issues. Adding to the experience is Jeff Rona's tense orchestral score, which actually incorporates samples of noises made by banging on various surfaces inside the real submarine used in the production. An excellent surround mix, all around. The disc includes optional English SDH and Spanish subtitles, which appear in easy-to-read white lettering.

Los Angeles Soccer: Pablo Mastroeni
MLS: Houston, K.C. open with wins
October, 30, 2011
By Scott French | ESPNLosAngeles.com
Higher-seeded road teams won both Eastern Conference playoff openers Saturday, with conference champ Sporting Kansas City using two Teal Bunbury goals to knock off defending MLS Cup champion Colorado and Houston scoring twice in the first half en route to a victory at defensive-minded Philadelphia.
Bunbury scored four minutes into the second half and converted a penalty kick 10 minutes later to lead Sporting to a 2-0 triumph at Colorado, which missed injured captain Pablo Mastroeni and lost three more players -- forward Caleb Folan and defenders Kosuke Kimura and Drew Moor -- to injury.
Houston beat the Union, 2-1, with Calen Carr's 30th-minute strike making the difference after Dynamo defender Andre Hainault, from a Brad Davis set piece, and Philly's Sebastien Le Toux traded goals in the sixth and seventh minutes.
K.C. will be home for the second leg Wednesday, and Houston plays its home leg Thursday. The series winners meet in the Eastern final next Sunday.
Houston's win was its first in five meetings with Philadelphia, which debuted last year in MLS. Sporting's triumph hinged on Colorado defender Tyrone Marshall's nightmare of a night -- he was beaten by Bunbury on the first goal, then dragged down the speedy forward in the Rapids box for the PK, picking up a red card in the process.

MLS CUP: Galaxy's going with FC Dallas
November, 19, 2010
By Scott French | ESPNLosAngeles.com
The Galaxy was mightily impressed by FC Dallas' victory in last weekend's Western Conference final, and a lot of their players think the Hoops' success will continue in Sunday's MLS Cup final against Colorado in Toronto (ESPN and Galavision, 5:30 p.m. PT).
Here's what a few had to say when asked to predict a winner:
GOALKEEPER DONOVAN RICKETTS: "The team that beat us, 3-0. Dallas. They play pretty good football, so I pick Dallas. But I have to care for my Jamaican man, [Colorado forward Omar] Cummings. My head tells me Dallas, but my heart goes to Cummings."
MIDFIELDER CHRIS KLEIN: "I think I would pick Dallas just because they're very difficult to beat. When you have the attacking weapons that they have, I think that maybe they have a little bit of an advantage. But you look at Colorado and you look at their two forwards [Cummings and Conor Casey] and you look at who they have in the center of the park [Pablo Mastroeni and Jeff Larentowicz], and I think it will pose a big challenge for [Dallas]."
DEFENDER TODD DUNIVANT: "I think it will be a good game, but I would think it will be Dallas. I mean, they've only lost four games this season, and they've kind of done so under the radar. … Not a lot of people were talking about Dallas, and they've only lost four games in, what, 33 now? That's pretty incredible. That's an unbelievable record. That means they have a good team. I think they're obviously the favorites, but when you have Casey and Cummings up top, that's an unbelievable combo that can hurt you any time. It'll be a good game."
FORWARD/MIDFIELDER LANDON DONOVAN: "It's going to be a good game. Mmmm. There's no two players playing better this season than Conor and Omar together, but in my opinion there's no one player who's more important to a team than [FC Dallas's David Ferreira]. It's going to be interesting. My guess is whoever scores first is going to win, because they're both very good counterattacking teams, and if you have to come at them and open yourselves up, Conor and Omar can make you pay, and Ferreira can make you pay going the other way. … Umm. I've got to say Dallas because we lost to them."

IN BRIEF: Colorado reached its second MLS Cup final -- its first in 13 years -- with a deserved 1-0 triumph over visiting San Jose in sub-freezing temperatures just outside Denver. … Right back Kosuke Kimura's cross sneaked into the net in the 43rd minute, but the Rapids would have had more if not for another superb performance by Earthquakes goalkeeper Jon Busch. … The Rapids await the winner of the Galaxy-FC Dallas clash in Sunday's Western Conference final at Home Depot Center.BEST PLAYER: It's Omar Cummings again. The speedy Rapids forward tormented the Quakes with runs through and behind the defense, constantly creating or exploiting space -- had his shot been on, he would have had a hat trick. He doesn't get an assist on Kimura's goal, but he deserves one: His near-post run froze Busch, allowing the in-swinging cross to skip past and inside the far post.
BEST GOAL: There only was one, and, no, it wasn't a work of art, but who cares? Kimura, the only Japanese player in the league, scored his first goal of the campaign -- and just his third in four seasons -- with a sensational cross from the right flank after a throw-in. With Bobby Convey applying pressure, Kimura curled a left-footed ball toward Cummings, who split San Jose's Jason Hernandez and Sam Cronin to get free at the near post. At first, it looked like Cummings got a touch on the ball, sending it past Busch, but replays indicated the cross had sneaked through on its own, and Cummings acknowledged at halftime that he hadn't gotten a piece of it.
BIGGEST STOP: Busch had plenty, including two big stops on Cummings and another on Pablo Mastroeni, but Brazilian forward Geovanni made the biggest, keeping the Quakes in the game by clearing Drew Moor's header from a Wells Thompson corner kick off the line at the right post in the 70th minute.
WORTH NOTING: The Rapids are the third successive crossover finalist. New York, sent to the Western Conference bracket in 2008 after finishing fifth in the East, stunned Houston and Real Salt Lake to reach the MLS Cup final, and Real Salt Lake's title run last year went through the East after a fifth-place finish in the West. Colorado was, naturally, fifth in the West this year. … The Rapids upset Kansas City and Dallas en route to the 1997 MLS Cup final, but lost, 2-1, against D.C. United in front of 57,431 at RFK Stadium in Washington. Jaime Moreno and Tony Sanneh gave D.C., coached by current Galaxy boss Bruce Arena, a two-goal lead, and Adrian Paz got one back in the 75th minute for Colorado.
QUOTE OF THE DAY: "I think the goal was maybe a little fortuitous, and he doesn't get on the score sheet all that often. … If there had been a bet on it, you would've had very long odds on Koski scoring the game-winner." -- Colorado head coach Gary Smith.

MLS PLAYOFFS: Team to beat? A repeat
October, 29, 2010
By Scott French in Seattle | ESPNLosAngeles.com
Major League Soccer's playoffs kicked off Thursday night, and it went just the way so many of us expected, with Omar Cummings running riot over the Columbus Crew.
Cummings' Colorado Rapids are a popular pick to reach the Eastern Conference final, even go further. That would fit nicely into an enduring (and somewhat aggravating) theme: The rise of the minnow.
The past two MLS Cup finals featured "crossover" clubs -- teams that were shuttled over to the other conference's postseason bracket after finishing outside the top four in its conference, then, somehow, pulled off two upsets to get through.
New York was fifth in the East in 2008, but it was the "Western" champ after stunning defending champ Houston and beating Real Salt Lake before falling to Eastern rival Columbus in the title game at Home Depot Center. Real Salt Lake's championship run last year started in the East -- the Utahns were fifth in the West -- with upsets of the Crew and Chicago before the penalty-kicks triumph over the Galaxy in Seattle.
MLS PLAYOFFS: Rapids on the rise

Pablo Mastroeni and his Colorado teammates celebrate the game's only goal against the Crew.
IN BRIEF: Colorado's first-half dominance paid off with a nifty goal, and the Rapids held off Columbus' late charge to open Major League Soccer's postseason with a 1-0 victory.
BEST PLAYER: It was never a secret that the key player in this series would be speedy Rapids forward Omar Cummings, and he repeatedly tore apart the Crew's backline to run onto balls out of the midfield, most from strike partner Conor Casey and from Brian Mullan. He found space primarily on the right wing, slicing between big UC Santa Barbara alum Andy Iro and rookie left back Shaun Francis, then firing across the face of the goal or delivering dangerous balls for, primarily, Casey. He set up one goal and was unfortunate not to produce more.
BEST GOAL: There was just one, in the 23rd minute, and it told the story of the game. Two quick passes out of midfield, the second a defense-splitting pass from Mullan to Cummings on the right flank, and the Jamaican forward sent in a low cross toward the goalmouth. Casey dragged Crew defender Chad Marshall (Riverside/Rubidoux HS) to the near post, then got a back-heel touch to the ball, helping it to the far post for Pablo Mastroeni, who raced in ahead of Robbie Rogers (Palos Verdes and Huntington Beach/Mater Dei HS) for the last touch.

Maison Martin Margiela Fall 2009: Doing Well, Head in the Clouds
>> Martin Margiela may be to blame for the overloaded shoulders, shaggy coats, and sculptural necklines we're seeing everywhere else for Fall 2009, and his bellwhether abilities are really paying off — his Paris stores logged a 21 percent sales increase year over year in January. Despite rumors last season that he was on the brink of leaving the company, "he's still in position," Margiela chief exec Giovanni Pungetti assures, although he disclosed that the designer recently reduced his day-to-day involvement and is seldom in the company's headquarters. Instead, "He's concentrating on more strategic projects. He's still working with us in the key decisions of the company. This is the spirit [Martin] wanted to create; that's his philosophy. He's more consulting with us than designing every product. The team is more Margiela than him."
Indeed, the Fall 2009 collection — whoever designed it — seemed the essence of Margiela. The show was about "morphing," and models walked the zigzagged catwalk, starting with a woman wearing only a bra and nude tights, graduating into greater states of dress — slashed trenches and tops, looped capes, and Margiela's newest answer to the highlighted shoulder — clear plastic shoulder pads held by black bra straps. One model wore a cotton cloud. The crowd was left speechless at the end, and a muted applause broke out amongst the bewilderment. But it is here that the seeds of future seasons are planted.

FOX Sports Exclusive
Are M's headed for a breakthrough?
ANAHEIM, Calif.
Catcher Kelly Shoppach said that a number of Mariners were talking on Tuesday, saying that if they had won their four-game series in Cleveland instead of getting swept, they would have been the talk of baseball, not the Indians.
See what charity this represents, see the bow ties Ken has worn and learn about BowTie Cause.
Wishful thinking? Perhaps. But the Mariners arrived in Cleveland as winners of five of their last six series, with their only non-win being a two-game split in Pittsburgh. And they could not have come closer against the Indians, losing three of the four games in walk-off style.
If the Mariners resume winning, they can dismiss the Cleveland series as a fluke, a simple case of running into a hot team. Alas, the M's lost their fifth straight game on Tuesday night, falling to the Angels, 12-0. They face the Angels again on Wednesday before returning home to face the Rangers, the team with the best record in the majors.
Who exactly are the Mariners? We may be about to find out. And if the answer is, "losing club," general manager Jack Zduriencik might not return for a sixth season.
Yet, it was interesting that even after the Craziness in Cleveland, several of the team's veteran newcomers spoke with confidence about the direction of the franchise — even though, as potential free agents, they might not be around for a breakthrough.
I'm not convinced that a breakthrough will occur this season, not when the M's are only 20-26. But are the Mariners better? Yes, they are better. And their future looks promising, considering that their farm system ranks second in the majors, according to Baseball America.
The Mariners went from 61 to 67 to 75 wins in their first two seasons under manager Eric Wedge. Triple-A catcher Mike Zunino, infielder Nick Franklin and Double-A right-hander Taijuan Walker are among the prospects who could assume prominent roles in Seattle before long.
"We've got talent out the wazoo," right fielder Michael Morse said, referring only to the current major league roster. "Now it's just putting it together, finding ways to win.
"We're in a good spot. We're the underdogs of the division, the team people forget about. But that series with Cleveland — we fought them. It was a boxing match. I don't think any other team would have fought them as hard."
Added left fielder Raul Ibanez, "I think this team is on the verge of really good stuff happening. Going for the kill when you have it — that's a process. But we're really close. There is a lot of fight in here — a lot of fight."
More important, there finally is some offense — not a ton, mind you, that would be too un-Mariners-like. But enough to where the M's are averaging 4.29 runs per game in May, up from an American-League worst 3.28 in April.
Let's not get too giddy — the Mariners still are last in the AL in that department, and are on track to become only the second team in divisional play to finish last in its league in runs five straight seasons, according to STATS LLC. The last to do it was the 1971 to '75 Padres.
Want some more negative fodder? The Mariners are batting a major-league-low .211 with runners in scoring position. And while third baseman Kyle Seager is a star and center fielder Michael Saunders a keeper, questions persist about three other supposed cornerstones — catcher Jesus Montero, second baseman Dustin Ackley and first baseman Justin Smoak.
Montero is batting .208 with a .590 OPS, and his defense is far worse than his offense. Ackley, after raising his OPS from .354 on April 19 to .604 on May 4, is back down to .557. Both should be in Triple A.
Even Smoak, who entered Tuesday ranked second among AL first basemen in on-base percentage over the last 30 days, still does not look like anything close to a sure thing — he has only eight RBIs, the same number as Brendan Ryan, the Mariners' light-hitting shortstop who does not play every day.
So, what's to like? For starters, the 1-2 combination of Felix Hernandez and Hisashi Iwakuma, who rank third and fifth in the American League in ERA, respectively. The back of the rotation is much less trustworthy — Aaron Harang allowed seven runs in 3 2/3 innings on Tuesday night — but the bullpen is a strength, ranking fifth in the league in opponents' OPS.
Also, for what it's worth, the vibe around the team seems improved, at least so far. Wedge preaches a blend of patience and accountability. Ibanez, who turns 41 on June 2, said the young players listen to advice from the veterans "more than anywhere than I've been in a long time."
The problem is that Shoppach, Morse, Ibanez, designated hitter Kendrys Morales and outfielder Jason Bay all are potential free agents, so this whole thing could be fleeting — particularly if the Mariners stumble and Seattle again is viewed as a baseball gulag.
Wedge, naturally, takes a more optimistic view.
"They feel like they're getting here at the right time. They feel like we can win now," the manager said of the veterans. "There's always a possibility that we can re-sign them, always a possibility that they want to be here, want to stay."
Heck, why stop with the current players? If the Mariners start to show life, they might even become a practical destination for two potential free agents who hail from the Northwest — Red Sox center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury and Giants right-hander Tim Lincecum — and others.
"We're a very healthy organization right now," Wedge said. "Are we there yet? No, we're not there. But we've got the infrastructure to be a good team — a good team for a while."
Fair enough, but losing clubs always should be viewed skeptically until they turn a corner. The Mariners are nearing the intersection of Progress and Regret. Crash or turn.

Hang gliders are thrilling and majestic to watch, especially when they're shredding through vengeful, murderous clouds. Be a vapor gaper with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options
- $109 for a tandem hang-gliding discovery flight for one (a $229 value)
- $205 for a tandem hang-gliding discovery flight for two (a $458 value)
A light sport airplane tows instructor and student up to an elevation of 3,000 feet. From here, the hang-glider and student soar for approzimately 20 minutes, taking in views of both Florida coasts. While midflight, instructors hand over the controls and teach students to turn, slow down, and speed up. After flights, newly crowned pilots can stick around and take advantage of Quest Air Soaring Center's private lake, which features activities such as fishing, swimming, and paddle-boating.
Quest Air Soaring Center
Flying in one of Quest Air Soaring Center's hang gliders is like transforming into a giant bird. The cockpit, floor, and engine of a traditional aircraft are all stripped away, leaving nothing but unparalleled views of Lake County. In good weather, visibility stretches to both of Florida's coasts and reveals everything in between: Disney, Universal Studios theme park, and even Cape Canaveral. Quest's certified hang-gliding instructors teach new fliers to navigate this elevated terrain during tandem discovery flights that introduce basic concepts such as turning and accelerating. As students progress, they move on to solo flights and more advanced skills, such as navigating thermals and rescuing pedestrians from the tops of broken ferris wheels.
Leading these aerial excursions are Quest Air Soaring Center's experienced hang-gliding pilots and instructors. When not soaring through the air, they spend time on their company's private lake, where gear for fishing, paddle boating, and other aquatic activities are available to Quest Air's customers free of charge.
100% of 71 customers recommend
"Its was a great time, staff was awesome"
"These guys are great - had a great time and will be going back!"
"Great program for those who like different sensations."

These facial cleansing pads are a great example of natural not being the better or safer solution for skin. Although some of the natural ingredients these pads are stepped in are great, others, like main ingredients witch hazel and alcohol, are a distinct problem for all skin types. Witch hazel is highly astringent and irritating, while alcohol causes a host of problems for skin (we explain further in the More Info section).
If the witch hazel and alcohol weren't enough trouble for skin, Trader Joe's also saw fit to add fragrant irritants lavender and lemongrass oils. Of the two, lavender oil is particularly problematic, as we explain in the More Info section.
The tea tree oil brings a medicinal scent and disinfecting properties, but if you want the benefits of tea tree oil, look for it in other products (or all by itself) to spare your skin the irritation these cleansing pads are extremely likely to cause.
Alcohol in Skin Care: Alcohol in skin-care products causes dryness and free-radical damage, and impairs the skin's ability to heal. The irritation it causes damages healthy collagen production and can stimulate oil production at the base of the pore, making oily skin worse (Sources: Biochimica et Biophysica Acta, May 2012, pages 1,410–1,419; Alcoholism, Clinical and Experimental Research, January 2011, pages 83–90; "Skin Care—From the Inside Out and Outside In," Tufts Daily, April 1, 2002; eMedicine Journal, May 8, 2002, volume 3, number 5, www.emedicine.com; Cutis, February 2001, pages 25–27; Contact Dermatitis, January 1996, pages 12–16; and http://pubs.niaaa.nih.gov/publications/arh27-4/277-284.htm).
Lavender Oil: Research indicates that components of lavender, specifically linalool, can be cytotoxic, which means that topical application causes skin-cell death (Source: Cell Proliferation, June 2004, pages 221–229). Lavender leaves contain camphor, which is a known skin irritant. Because the fragrance constituents in lavender oil oxidize when exposed to air, lavender oil is a pro-oxidant, and this enhanced oxidation increases its irritancy on skin (Source: Contact Dermatitis, September 2008, pages 143–150). Lavender oil is the most potent form, and even small amounts of it (0.25% or less) are problematic. Although it's fine as an aromatherapy agent for inhalation or relaxation, it is a must to avoid in skin-care products. (Sources: Psychiatry Research, February 2007, pages 89–96; and www.naturaldatabase.com).
Trader Joe's Natural Facial Cleansing Pads are strong yet gentle and leave your skin feeling clean and refreshed.
Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Water, (Natural Grain) Alcohol Denatured, Eco Harvest Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil, Calendula Officinalis Flower Oil, Anthemis Nobilis Flower Oil (Chamomile), Lavendula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Cymbopogon Schoenanthus Oil (Lemongrass Oil), Chamomilla Recuctita (Matricaria) Flower Extract, Hydrastis Candensis (Golden Seal) Extract, Hedychium Coronarium (Ginger) Root Extract, Fucus Vesiculosus (Bladderwrack) Extract, Melia Azadirachta (Neem) Seed Oil, Glycerin (Vegetable Derived), Water (Aqua).
Trader Joe's At-A-Glance
Strengths: Inexpensive; sunscreens provide sufficient UVA protection; good cleanser and shave cream.
Weaknesses: Limited options; body-care formulas contain irritating fragrant oils; Trader Joe's is better for groceries than skin care.
California-based specialty grocer chain Trader Joe's isn't the first place you may think of when shopping for skin care, and rightly so: the bulk of this store's inventory is, not surprisingly, foods and beverages. However, they've recently ventured into sun care and offer a couple of worthwhile, inexpensive sunscreens as well as a remarkable facial cleanser. The sunscreens from TJ's we recommend aren't knock-your-socks-off spectacular, but are quite the beauty bargain. If you have a Trader Joe's in your neighborhood, some of the sunscreens are definitely worth a look, especially if you have a family to cover from head to toe during summer months when more of us are outdoors for long periods of time. For more information about Trader Joe's, visit www.traderjoes.com.
The Beautypedia Research Team is dedicated to helping you find the absolute best products for your skin, using research-based criteria to review beauty products from an honest, balanced perspective. Each member of the team was personally trained by Paula Begoun herself.
I packed these on a trip so I wouldn't ruin my host's nice washcloths when I removed my makeup. I found these throw-aways soothing and effective - didn't even need to rinse with water. They had "substance," and didn't fall apart in your hand like paper, instead were soft. For the price, a good choice for temporary use on-the-road.

Recent research
indicates that the number of exotic animals kept as pets in the U.S includes 5,000-7,000 tigers (more than the wild population in Asia), 10,000-20,000 large cats, 8.8 million reptiles, and at least 3,000 great apes.
Exotic Pets
The last decade has seen a rapid increase in exotic pet ownership in the United States. Along with the increase in popularity of exotic pet ownership, comes an increase in attack or escape incidents. Since 1990, there have been over 1,000 reported incidents involving exotic pets including large cats, nonhuman primates, reptiles, bears, wolves, foxes, and ferrets.
So what happens when your exotic pet adds to these statistics? Are you in a position to defend yourself when a victim is injured and decides to seek physical and emotional damages? Unless you can afford to pay the medical bills of a victim, pay court awarded damages, or even pay to defend yourself in the event of a frivolous claim, insurance coverage for your pet should be a consideration.
With increasingly strict state and local regulations being enforced across the country, animal liability coverage through XINSURANCE will put many of these worries to rest. XINSURANCE animal liability coverage is specifically designed to meet the insurance levels required by landlords or state regulators – and we can even provide coverage for pets who have had prior incidents.
Policies are structured to cover the gaps and exclusions that make your existing coverage insufficient. And because XINSURANCE acts as supplemental insurance coverage, the premiums are low and affordable… but your peace of mind will never be greater.

Is is possible to overload a field type to be another field type? This came up in a discussion with some of my team mates and we were unsure. After looking through Google I wasn't able to find anything.
Does anyone know if this is possible? If so would it be possible to provide some examples?

The story and many others like it should perhaps be posted in the "High Strangeness" category but the events are so extreme the SOTT editors would not consider publication. Currently I have not assisted in any terminations for nearly five years and even I do not consider myself fully to blame for any of them. In most cases the victims come to me and I even tell them what I will do beforehand. But still they come. I think they seek death.
Generally I do not like to talk about what has happened as this can precipitate further happenings. However as you are so interested I will make an exception for you. I am sure you will find the stories interesting.
To keep things simple I will arrange to see you at 3:00 am on Friday the 21st of December and we can have a good chat before the world ends.
I hope this is OK with you.
See you soon...

US 7304956 B2 Abstract Apparatus and method for automatically testing hardware and software components of a system. A request type message is generated in the software component of the system. A request-type message, including a destination address and a source address, is made to traverse the transmit channel of the system. The destination address and source address are swapped, i.e., interchanged, and the message is wrapped into the receive channel where it is forwarded to the software component for further analysis. Modification is in the transmit channel to modify the message by swapping the source address and the destination address to preclude discarding of the message by the receive channel.

15. The apparatus of
Description 1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to self testing in a computer communication system using wrap-around to send a test message to itself to verify that components of the system are operating properly. More particularly, it relates to swapping destination and sender addresses in the transmit path to preclude the system protocol from discarding the test message in the receive path. 2. Description of the Related Art The use of wrap-around to test the transmitting and receiving processes in a networking system is well known. Some mechanism for coupling a transmitted signal back into the receiving port of the system is provided, which can be direct hardware coupling or a program-operated switching arrangement. If the system being tested has a plurality of software and hardware levels and the messages are complex and cast in frames, strict protocols must be adhered to. One of the formal protocols is detecting the address of an incoming message and rejecting the message if it is not addressed to the receiving system. The system protocols require an external destination address in order for the message to exit via the transmit output ports. The system protocol then detects that the wrapped message is not addressed to the system under test and discards it. To overcome this problem when using wrap-around to test system components, manual intervention or custom software are used. This invention is directed to the efficient and automatic use of self-testing in systems capable of communication In accordance with the invention, a system which includes message generators�the messages containing source addresses and destination addresses�with the capability of transmitting and receiving messages, is provided with a wrap-around capability to connect together the ports for transmitting and receiving messages so that the system can receive messages it transmits. To prevent discarding of messages because the destination address is incorrect, there is a swapping capability included in said transmission portion of the system to interchanging source addresses and destination addresses in messages. In one implementation of the invention, the swapping capability is incorporated in a driver device that couples the messages to the transmission components A hardware implementation can employ multiplexors to selectively interchange the source and destination addresses of messages, the multiplexors being activated simultaneously with activation of the wrap-around capability. The invention is described in detail by referring to the various figures which illustrate specific embodiments of the invention, and wherein like numerals refer to like elements. When testing networking system hardware components using wrap-around or message wrap, a user sends out a test message which is then received back into the user's system. Comparing the outgoing message with the incoming message, hardware failures can be detected. This permits a system to be tested in isolation, i.e., without tying up other stations on the networking system. Typically, a software process is used to generate data from a control point in the system. The data flows through the software stack of the system and through the hardware components of the system in the direction of the transmit interface until it reaches the point where a wrap has been inserted. A wrap can be implemented by a hardware loop using a special software selective mode or by an external means. At the wrap point, the data enters the receive path of the system in the direction of the software stack. A user skilled in the art knows that the wrapped data from the transmit path to the receive path is not modified by the wrap mechanism. As a result, the embedded destination address in the data, which is that of an external element, remains the same after the wrap. This causes the data or message packet to be discarded before it reaches a software system component that can verify the integrity of the test data. Typically, modifications are added to the receive path of the system to display the data before it is discarded. The user then must verify the data integrity manually or by writing a custom software program. This is time consuming and subject to error. The invention described herein performs an address swap by exchanging the positions of the destination address and the source address in the data test message. This can be done anywhere along the transmit path before the wrap point. Thus, the destination address in the message packet is the source address which is the address of the system being tested. As a result, data verification testing can be performed by system processing in a normal manner using automatic verification. This approach is applicable to any system having input and output communication ports but is especially useful with a message protocol of a request/reply nature. In this case, the system under test generates a reply in response to the wrapped data received. This reply is then wrapped back. This checks system operation in both directions. Address swapping can be performed in any of the transmit path components. A preferable point is the final action of the software stack before the data enters the hardware components that transmit the data. A device driver software component 3 interfaces with hardware components 5 that are required to transmit the data. A wrap switch 7 is used either to send the message on to external connections 9 in a normal mode or to wrap the message back in a test mode to the hardware components 5 required for receiving the test data. If the protocol is a request/reply types then the protocol software 1 can terminate the request and generate a reply which is then wrapped again to the receiver port. In this way, the entire system can be tested In the absence of the method according to the invention, the data in the test mode is passed from the device driver software 3 to the hardware components 5 unchanged. Thus, when the data is received by the hardware components 5 via the wrap switch 7, it does not contain as the destination address the address of the system under test. The protocol software 1 then discards the message as passed to it by the device driver software 3. Using the method of the invention, the source address and the destination address are swapped when the data is passed from the protocol software 1 through the device driver software 3 to the hardware components 5 during the transmit phase of the test. The following is a pseudo-code description of the invention and is keyed to the reference numerals of
At step 11, the generation of P2 as a function of P1 is based on the specific configuration of the application. Correct configuration of the application as well as correct operation of all components can be verified by examining output to the user. Thus, when the wrap signal is not active, the destination address of the test message 31 is passed to destination address of an outgoing message 34 by the multiplexor 32. The source address of the test message 31 is passed to the source address of the the outgoing message 34 by the multiplexor 33. When the wrap signal is active, the source address of the test message 31 is passed to the destination address of the outgoing message 34 by the multiplexor 32 and the destination address of the test message 31 is passed to the source address of the outgoing message 34 by the multiplexor 33. The outgoing message 34 is coupled to an input terminal D of a selector 35. When the control signal C is not activated, the input signals from the input terminal D are passed to the output terminal A. When the control signal C is activated, the input signals at the input terminal D are passed to the output terminal B. The signals from the output terminal A of the selector 35 are directed to the network communication connections to the external devices. The signals from output terminal B of the selector 35 are connected to the input terminals of the receive ports of the system under test. Thus, when the wrap signal is not active, the system output signals are connected to the network with the source and destination addresses unchanged. When the wrap signal is active, the system output signals are wrapped back into the receive terminals of the system under test with the source and destination addresses interchanged. The operation of the system according to the invention is the same whether implemented in hardware or in software. While the invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to a preferred embodiment thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention according to the following claims.
