Customer Ratings:
This product ultimately did not work for me because, despite my oily acne-prone skin, my nightly use of BP leaves my skin needing a more hydrating SPF lotion. This lotion does hydrate but when it dries it leaves my skin feeling, and looking, tight because of it's matte finish. However, I think it's a great option for those with oily skin who don't need as much moisturization. It's matte finish is quite impressive for a sunscreen!
Overall a nice moisturizer. However, it seems like my skin just can't tolerate it. It stings and also my skin looks pretty reddened after applying it. Guess the reason might be one of the suncreen ingredients!? Don't know, what else to try, it's a pity. I already tried the Super-Light Wrinkle Defense, which I loved at first. However, after a few days it was too matte & made me breaktout. Then I tried the Hydralight SPF 30, which is good, but it left my skin ghostly grey-white. Any suggestions?
Thanks for your review! We have one more option for you to consider, that being the daytime moisturizer with SPF 30 from the CLEAR line. Please contact us if you'd like to sample this. If that option doesn't work, it would be best to experiment with sunscreens we recommend from other brands.
This product does what is says: protection + light application = great for combo skin. It is similar to a thin sunscreen and is very liquidy. Goes on easily and rubs in great without leaving a white haze. However, I prefer something a bit thicker and plan to switch back to the hydralight mositurizer with my next order. They are both excellent in my book, but one is thin and one is thick. I prefer thicker so I gave this product a 4 out of 5, but if you're looking for a thin option it's a 5.
I love the texture of this sunscreen. It is super light, almost like liquid and absorb immediately. Does not make my face darker at the end of the day like other sunscreen. But after 1/3 tube, I found out my face much darker than my neck. Makes me wonder about UVB protection. That's OK, MAC BB cream and powder solve it. I will finish the tube and think about Resist sunscreen w/zinc oxide 13% for the next one.
Thanks for your review! This sunscreen, like all of those from Paula's Choice, has passed the most current, rigorous testing to earn broad spectrum (UVA + UVB) status. What may have happened is you were exposed to daylight too long without reapplying, or you may not have applied enough of this product to get the stated level of protection. As the face is more exposed than the neck, it's easy to see how the face could get more color when this happens.
In the past, I have tried sunscreen after sunscreen and have usually been disappointed for one reason or another. Then I learned about PC products and decided to sample most of their sunscreens (knowing how picky I can be in this way). I have to say that I was actually shocked at how many of them I really liked! The skin balancing one & hydralight one are excellent for my combination skin and for under makeup. Also, the added ingredients are excellent. PC, where have you been all my life?? lol
Oily skin hates sunscreen and an Acne prone oily face hates it even more. I didn't use a moisturizer for years with SPF because I always broke out. No matter what. I exposed my skin to harmful rays because I couldn't stand the breakouts. I tried a sample of this and I never broke out, then bought the full size and it still performs beautifully. Best of all my face is less shiny at the end of the day. Of course I do use the cleanser and toner from this line so that also helps. Life changing.
I've been using this sunscreen for a while, and all I can say is it is the best one I've ever used, hands down. It leaves my skin feeling moisturized without being too heavy or shiny, and doesn't make my skin break out. Even better, I notice that when I wear this my skin looks much smoother. Places where I have fines lines, like on the bridge of my nose, disappear with this SPF. The lines on my forehead are also less prominent. Never stop making this!
I love how quickly this product absorb and sets to a matte finish, but it was too irritating to my skin. I suspect after a long time of using mineral sunscreen (chiefly RESIST SUPER-LIGHT WRINKLE DEFENSE SPF 30, which I love), my skin can no longer handle chemical sunscreen.
I feel this moisturizer just dries out my oily skin and leaves it very dull-looking instead of "nice and glowy" as I would have hoped. I feel it looks lifeless instead of healthy and glowing. Any other recommendations from the line?
Hi there! You sound like the ideal candidate for our new CLEAR daytime moisturizer with SPF 30 or even our Moisture Boost SPF 30 formula. Please contact us as we'd be happy to send samples of these so you can compare.
My face itch every time i used it. I used it for a week still get itchy maybe the weather, it's hot and sweating a lot. I will keep it and try to use it during winter time.
Hi there! Itching is not an expected reaction from this product, so we'd encourage you not to keep it and instead contact us to discuss an exchange or refund. It's possible that the combination of this product plus another skincare product you apply (especially if it contains fragrance) may be causing the itching, but it may also be the SPF itself.
I really want to like this but by mid afternoon I have an oil slick across my face. I have the entire clear balancing line. I do like everything else but the moisturizer just doesn't seem to work for me. I guess if your skin looking like it's been dipped in oil means it looks young then this works but it just doesn't seem to work for me.
Depending on your skin type and how it responds to these products, you may need to apply fewer of them in the morning in an effort to reduce the potential for oily shine. Try applying ONLY the Skin Balancing SPF 30, no other skincare products, after you cleanse and tone. You can add back the other products (exfoliant, serum) at night.
This has a great lightweight texture and good ingredients, however I had to stop using it on my face because it stings. I'm finishing the bottle using it on my neck, ears, arms etc because it is still excellent everywhere else. I suspect it is the Octocrylene in this product that gives me the stinging and redness I feel, since every chemical suncreen blend I've tried without Octocrylene does not irritate me at all. Its earned a 4/5 from me. Please consider other chemical sunscreens to use :)
I started using this product when it contained SPF of 15. The consistency allowed for easier application. I'm all for the extra protection and do continue to use this wonderful moisturizer, but I usually have to dampen my face before applying to allow for easier, more even application. I advise to use less rather than too much since the consistency of this new formula is thicker than the former. In spite of this I give this moisturizer an A+
Texture makes application quick & easy: liquid covers all areas, non-greasy, moisturizes just enough for extreme combo. skin, stays matte, perfect under makeup & great alone. I use PC's Hydralight Shine-Free mineral around eyes to avoid future sensitization, but this works well for that area, too. If skin's dry, PC Moisture Balancing Gel underneath takes care of flakes. Before PC's Extreme Combo. Skin article, couldn't quite get my 50yo patchy yet oily skin figured out. Love tips/products!
This is a great, lightweight chemical sunscreen! I'm glad Paula increased the SPF from 15 to 30. Any chance of another increase to SPF 50? There are sunscreens similar to this one from Peter Thomas Roth and Skinceuticals that are both SPF 50 so it can be done, and done well.
Thanks for your review! We're always working on new products, so a higher SPF facial moisturizer is a distinct possibility!
At 45, i've finally realized not protecting my face from the sun has been a big mistake. I really love this moisturizer because while at first it seems too runny, it goes on beautifully and my skin still feels natural. I see people have complained about shine but for me i'm glad this product isn't too mattifying, it allows your natural 'glow' to come through throughout the day. Add SPF & ingredients to nourish the skin - and of course no testing on animals - and you have a winner. Big thumbs up!
Having had great success with other products in the Skin Balancing line, as well as the Hydralight SPF moisturizer, I tried a sample of this with high hopes. Its application was okay, but it stung my face pretty noticeably on both occasions that I applied it. My skin is not sensitive or prone to that kind of reaction, so I was surprised. I'll be sticking to Resist Superlight and Hydralight sunscreens for now.
Thanks for your review! We're sorry your skin wasn't able to tolerate this sunscreen. Sometimes, the so-called "chemical" sunscreen combinations can cause a stinging sensation, which is why we also offer mineral (titanium dioxide and/or zinc oxide) formulas. Please contact us for a refund or exchange.
I live in Los Angeles, so a daily moisturizer with SPF 30 is key for me. I'm thrilled that the Skin Balancing Kit bumped up the sun protection from SPF 15 to SPF 30, and I've had great results with this product! It doesn't cause my combination skin to break out, but it gives me the sun protection I need. I use it every day and feel safe knowing that my skin isn't being damaged by the L.A. sun.
I live in Texas & walk my dogs regularly which gives me lots of time in the sun. In Paula's Beauty Bible, she says sun exposure increases if not causes wrinkles and skin aging. She recommends using enough protective clothing & sunscreen so one's skin color does not change color. Wow, that really hit home to me. I wasn't protecting my skin nearly enough. Now the summer is heating up & I'm getting paler. Some scars are fading too. This is less oily than a prior brand I thought was the least oily.
No matte finish but it feels soooo good on my face. My face is left soft , smooth and moisturized. Can't wait to try more of Paula's products.
I really like the consistency of this product and the fact it has no tint, but, it really stings my cheeks. My skin looks fabulous after using PC products exclusively for the last month, and I was so disappointed this didn't work out. Not sure why it stings; the Resist SPF didn't, but I didn't like the tint of it. I can't decide if I want to return, just use it on the neck down, or if I want to try Hydra Light SPF. I do love the texture of this product and the way it sinks into skin.
If I had to go to an island and only take one thing with me, this would be it. I can't live without it! I use this product every single day, without fail. It applies flawlessly over my eyes and face. I keep a handy stock of it at home, as I can never, ever, run out of it. It applies perfectly over other PC products, and my PC makeup applies perfectly over it. Hands down, the best!
Smells like any ole Sunscreen you'd pick up in a retail store, but in addition to this it moisturizes and leave's those of us with super oily skin so very matte. Love it!
This is an excellent product. It feels like I have no sunscreen on at all. My skin stays shine-free all day without any use of powder. The new SPF 30 did initially cause stinging around my eyes. However, I now apply moisturizer around my eyes first. I wait about 15 minutes for the moisturizer to absorb into my eye skin, and then I apply the sunscreen. This procedure has completely eliminated any stinging around my eyes when I apply the sunscreen! This sunscreen is now the perfect product for me!
I thought this sunscreen would work well for my combo skin. My skin kept stinging and breaking out and I could not figure out what it was until I applied it and wore no makeup or any other product on my face and whalla my face started stinging so I found my culprit. I guess I will send back and try some samples of other sunscreens.

Sanfrecce Hiroshima's hot shot striker Hisato Sato has set his sights on adding the AFC Champions League crown to the J.League title he won last year, when his goals steered the club to their first-ever domestic crown.
Sato was the J.League's top scorer and was named the league's Most Valuable Player after his 22 strikes paved the way for Hiroshima to top the standings for the first time since the start of the J.League back in 1993.
The win ensured Sanfrecce booked a place in the group stages of the AFC Champions League for only the second time in the club's history and now Sato and his team-mates are lining themselves up for a run at the continental title.
"Our goal is to become Asian champions," said the diminutive Japan international forward.
"We know we need to improve more in order to become champions, but I will fight with the pride that comes from being a Japanese footballer and I know what we can do."
Sanfrecce's success in the J.League last year earned them a berth at the 2012 FIFA Club World Cup as representatives of the event's host nation and, as a result, Hajime Moriyasu's side faced off against last year's AFC Champions League winners Ulsan Hyundai.
The J.League side won that encounter 3-2 – with Sato scoring twice – to secure fifth place in the competition and give the 30-year-old a taste of what to expect in the 2013 AFC Champions League.
"We still have much to learn, however having played against the Asian champions, I feel like I have a few ideas," said Sato, who celebrates his 31st birthday the day before his team's meeting with China's Beijing Guoan next week in the AFC Champions League.
"Firstly, we will focus on going through from the group stage and then we will see what happens next."
Sanfrecce did endure a disappointing start to their AFC Champions League campaign after losing 2-0 at home to Uzbekistan's Bunyodkor in their opening game in Group G, which they also share with Beijing Guoan and former champions Pohang Steelers.
The Japanese champions next travel to the Chinese capital to meet Beijing, who shared a goalless draw with 2009 AFC Champions League winners Pohang Steelers last week in Korea Republic, on March 13 and Sato will be hoping to fire his team to a more successful outcome than on Matchday One.
"I know for a fact that dwelling upon former glories never makes you a good football player," said Sato.
"I know this because I've gone through some tough times as a professional player. I have to continue trying to succeed and trying to improve for the upcoming matches.
"We will be facing a real test of our strength this season, but I believe this struggle will lead us to have better energy."
While Sato's goal scoring was a key factor in Sanfrecce's title win in 2012, the former Vegalta Sendai and Cerezo Osaka forward is quick to credit his team-mates for the club's success last year.
"I scored 22 goals but I don't believe that I did it all by myself," he says. "When I am scoring, the goalkeeper and the defenders win the ball and then the midfield brings the ball forward.
"My part is to move the ball quickly towards the goal and finalise the job as a striker. That's all I'm doing. It is all because of my team-mates and I would like to show my appreciation to all of my team-mates."
In addition to their defeat in the opening round of matches in the AFC Champions League, Sanfrecce kicked off the defence of their J.League title with a 2-1 loss against Urawa Reds – another 2013 AFC Champions League participant – on Saturday.
And Sato is under no illusions regarding the difficulty of the task that lies ahead for him and his team mates this season.
"I'm not expecting to win back-to-back titles in this competition," he says. "It's not that easy.
"But since we experienced winning the title, I do have a strong feeling of wanting to win it again. This season will be a harder one, but we will do our best in each game."

Thanks, I should have just tried it; but I didn't want to make a mess. Also, thanks Lurker for the PM.
What happened to Acker? Wasn't he doing pretty in Greece. He's not on the summer team so what's his future with the pistons look like?
There's no information anywhere on Acker. This is a bit weird. Pistons are not saying anything regarding his status.
Had a two year deal with a player option the second year.......in Greece. Team over there didn't want him back this season. The coach had difficulties with him. Someone here said the coach just may be hard to get along with. My take is that if you get cut in Greece by the coach, you're not Piston material.
what acker's coach in greece thinks doesn't mean %%%% in the nba IMHO. the guy was a bit weird. it's like getting dissed by a schizophrenic saunders. would you really take the guy's thoughts as gospel. i'm a bit confused as to why there's been no mention of acker. i think he could have helped us this year but i guess joe d has other ideas after his drafting this past week.
Don't know if this thread is for all Summer league action or only the Pistons.

It's just like being right there. The cameras seem to be much closer to the action, they zoom in on conversations between players and you can hear the crowd and the coaching. Why are the NBA games so canned and almost calculated to be generic and uninspiring? I swear. I want this camera crew. And I can hear the sneakers squeaking on the floor. It's really fantastic. Almost like being there live. I can't wait to see our Pistons tomorrow!!! I mean even the color is better on the unis! (Okay I know it's a much smaller venue, but still...surely ESPN and ABC can do a better job of covering the court and the game, can't they?
Glinny appearing again out of nowhere, this time on the Celtics roster. lol. This guy is going for the record for Summer League's i think. Impressive filling up the stat sheet. NBA.com : Summer League 2007
Kim, You have to pony up for the ferry ride. Seeing the Sonics live is just like summer league. I fell in love with the Pistons during the Teal era, when you could buy a cheap ticket and sit behind the bench. I will always be a Pistons fan... but there is a level of fan participation that you can only get watching the hopefuls. God Speed, young players, may you find your way in the NBA.
If you thought Durant's one rebound was amusing you must think Greg Oden's 2 boards four TO's and 10 fouls was one heck of a knee slapper.
I don't think Darko has ever committed 10 fouls in a game, at least not an organized game in the U.S. of A. But then he was not a #1 pick. LOL
That just proves my point about Durant avoiding contact at all costs. How does a rookie play 30 minutes in a summer league game and only get one foul called on him and only one rebound? There is only one way that I know of and that is to avoid contact. At least Oden was banging. Oden will be okay once he the officials come to an understanding.
Hogwash. If fouls are indicative of effort why does Ben Wallace rarely foul out? (I'm not comparing anyone to Ben, it's just an example that fouls = effort is far from truth) I don't understand why so many folks think the next level is going to be harder for Durant but easier for Oden (oh, once the officials give him his "pass" of course ) We're talking about a guy that out rebounded Oden while averaging more cumulative blocks and steals as well. He achieved this while playing out on the perimeter while Oden was camped in the lane mind you. Now all of a sudden Durant is soft. Tell you what, explain to me how Oden is not a better rebounder than Durant in college, but he's automatically better coming into the NBA? No way that makes any sense. Oh yea, you're a wonderful person whom I respectfully disagree with

Loan closers work for mortgage companies by carrying out administrative duties to prepare closing packages, which is an essential part of helping loans come to fruition. They must enter information accurately to properly close loans and review all related documents to ensure they are correct and complete; these documents include invoices, titles, insurance, and closing commitment documents. Other information to be verified includes names, property addresses, lock dates, and underwriting approval documents.
Read More...Just a handful of professional skills are reported by Loan Closers who took the survey. Fortunate workers who know Commercial Loans command much higher paychecks, scoring salaries 21 percent above average. Skills that are correlated to lower pay, on the other hand, include Loan Processing.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Loan Closers with more experience do not necessarily bring home bigger paychecks. In fact, experience in this field tends to impact compensation minimally. Relatively untried employees who have fewer than five years of experience earn around $37K on average. People who have worked for five to 10 years can expect a higher median salary of $42K. Loan Closers with one to two decades of relevant experience report an average salary of approximately $45K. In the end, more experience does seem to mean larger paychecks; seasoned Loan Closers with more than 20 years of experience earn a predictably higher median salary of $51K.

The mission of the Department of Psychology is to provide undergraduate students with knowledge of the principles of behavior as established by scientific methods.
Students in our program develop an understanding of psychological science through instruction in the classroom and hands on participation in research projects. Classroom instruction is structured so that students first receive a general overview of the topics and methods in psychology, followed by a more thorough exploration of specific content areas.
Research involvement is structured so that students evolve from apprentices to collaborators by taking progressively greater responsibility for the design and execution of psychological research projects. The knowledge and skills students acquire through these activities are intended to prepare them for graduate study in psychology or related fields and to help them pursue careers in business, government, education, medical or public service settings.

Even as the secretary of the Punjab Vidhan Sabha issued notice to several new channels and newspapers, restraining them from reporting or airing the abusive remarks made by an Akali Minister in the Assembly on Wednesday, clips of the incident went viral on various social networking sites.
Defying the Speaker's directions, the Punjab Congress put up a screening of the video in the Sector 17 shopping plaza on Thursday evening.
The video of Revenue and Public relations Minister Bikram Singh Majithia abusing and making threatening gestures at senior Congress leader Rana Gurjit Singh (who has been suspended from the Assembly) was flashed on several news channels on Wednesday.
Mr Majithia is the brother-in-law of Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal.
Till Thursday morning, the video, shot by two television stations doing a live coverage of the Assembly proceedings, was much sought after by other channels. When the two news channels went to cover the proceedings on Thursday morning, they were told that the Speaker had withdrawn the permission given to them. However, after sometime they were permitted to do so.

Hello Alan & Anne, Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We really do appreciate it and at no time did we think you a "twerp". We felt bad you had got stuck in the first place.

Hello Ray & Gill, Thank you for your kind review. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay, and extended stay with us. We take your comments on board about the hedging (although it would take several years to establish and give us more maintenance work to do).

Israel settlements: UN steps up pressure
The UN is stepping up pressure on Israel over its settlement building on occupied Palestinian land in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
The secretary general and all Security Council members except the US demanded an immediate halt to new construction.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his government would press ahead with settlement expansion.
The US protects Israel at the UN but the state department accused Israel of "a pattern of provocative action".
Spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said settlement activity put the goal of peace "further at risk".
New homesAlso on Wednesday, Jerusalem's planning committee granted approval for 2,610 homes in a new settlement in East Jerusalem called Givat Hamatos - the first to be built in the area since 1997.
Meanwhile, tenders have been announced for several settlements in the West Bank for a total of 1,000 new homes.
Israel captured East Jerusalem in the 1967 Middle East war and annexed it as part of its capital, in a move never recognised internationally.
Palestinians want the area to be capital of a state they seek to establish in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, land also captured by Israel.
The four European members of the UN Security Council - France, Germany, the UK and Portugal - issued a statement saying they were "extremely concerned" by Israel's intentions to build more settlements.
The outcry at the UN reflects a real concern that Israel's continued settlement building could deal a fatal blow to the chances for a two-state solution of its conflict with the Palestinians.
Its announcement of new construction plans, including the possibility of a new settlement in East Jerusalem, comes just days after its declared intent to build in a parcel of land known as E-1, which would cut Palestinians in East Jerusalem off from their West Bank hinterland.
All this has triggered alarm. Even though the US wouldn't allow criticism of Israel in the Security Council, in Washington it accused Israel of engaging in a pattern of provocative action.
All the other council members lined up outside the chamber to criticise the settlement policy and press for urgent new impetus behind the peace process.
The fear instead is of a "dangerous standoff," in the words of a senior UN official, with the Palestinians threatening to take the issue to the International Criminal Court.
"If implemented, these plans would jeopardise the possibility of a contiguous, sovereign, independent and viable Palestinian State and of Jerusalem as the future capital of both Israel and Palestine," the statement said.
Israel's announcements "send a negative message and are undermining faith in its willingness to negotiate," it warned.
Israel announced its settlement expansion in response to a recent UN decision to recognise Palestine as an observer state, which it strongly opposed.
The Israeli ambassador to the UN, Ron Prosor, insisted that settlements were not the major hurdle to peace, and stressed that the latest announcements were part of a bureaucratic process known as "planning and zoning".
He repeated Israeli demands that Palestinians return to peace talks without preconditions.
The last round of direct talks broke down in late 2010 following a dispute over settlement construction in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
For his part, Mr Netanyahu said settlement building would not stop.
"We are going to build in Jerusalem for all its residents," he said. "This is something that has been done by all previous governments and this is something that my government will continue to do."
About 500,000 Jews live in more than 100 settlements built since the occupation of the West Bank and East Jerusalem. The settlements are considered illegal under international law, though Israel disputes this.
Earlier this week, Israel gave approval for 1,500 more homes at the Ramat Shlomo settlement in East Jerusalem.

Posted By GKC On August 26, 2012 @ 2:00 am In Rosh Hashana,Weekly Recipes | No Comments

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted margarine
1 teaspoon brandy (optional)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pareve Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream
Preheat oven to 350 °. Grease a large Bundt pan. Bring dates and 1 1/4 cups water to a boil in a medium heavy saucepan with tall sides. Remove from heat; stir in baking soda (mixture will become foamy). Set aside; let cool.

with the name spelt Khaleesi, it will get miss pronounced all the time.
May 14th, 2013 08:12 AM #5
Hmm, I am an avid GoT fan as well, and I've only heard them pronounce it kah-lee-see.
Regardless, I think it's far too tied to the series to use on a human being - it was invented for it, after all, and is a title (essentially meaning "queen") as opposed to her name (which is Daenerys Targaryan.
Petronilla sounds like an alcoholic drink.
May 14th, 2013 08:36 AM #7
In the series actually pronounced Kah -lee -see but later a guy I think the owner say that they actually pronounced that way because they think lots of people will pronounce it like that but it's totally wrong because its pronounced Kha -lay -see like he said. But I think I prefer Kah-lee-see lol!

I dislike Khaleesi and kah-lee-see is the more intuitive pronunciation. Kah-lay-see will have pronunciation issues.
Petronilla reminds me of a combination of citronella candles and petrol.** The opinions expressed above are not meant to be reflective of Nameberry as a whole but are my opinion and mine alone. **

Q: French and Indian War: Most Difficult Choice.((I tried changing the Artist's Comments portion on this, but I can't. Something about the stash writer not being able to do that. But this is what I wanted to say. This isn't historically accurate. This was a dabble I wrote in the dead of night off the top of my head. Purely fiction with the use of personifications as nations/colonies. The backdrop however is an actual war, but that has very little to do with what's happening now. So yeah it's not historically accurate, this was written for entertainment's sake.))It has been three days since we last ate anything. All our provisions are gone. All we have is gunpowder, no food, no water. The sun is setting fast in the mountains. I hear that we will raid the next village we chance upon.

Magpies enjoy comfortable win over Birmingham
NEWCASTLE registered their first victory of the post-Andy Carroll era as goals from Peter Lovenkrands and Leon Best ensured a comfortable success against Birmingham at St. Andrews. Lovenkrands opened the scoring after four minutes and then Best struck early in the second period to wrap up the points for the Magpies. Birmingham enjoyed a fair share of possession, but lacked a cutting edge as they suffered their first defeat in six games.

"Beautiful Easter cards. I received so many compliments on these. The only issue was that on two of the photos, you could see the print dots. Similar to those you see in comic books (if you know what I mean). I ordered them so close to Easter, that I didn't have time to return them and no one else seemed to notice but of course, I did. I ordered the glossy finish and preferred that over the matte finished that I used for invitations I've ordered from TinyPrints before. I opted for the rectangular envelopes over the square ones, because of the postage cost and although I originally wanted the square ones, the rectangular ones worked perfectly and didn't look bad at all. They are fitted inside so that the square card fits snugly and isn't slipping back and forth inside the envelope."
"I love this card! It was a wonderful gift for family and friends. The pics printed really well- maybe a tad bit darker than I would have thought, but they look great. I used pics that we had taken all on the same day to make the card look cohesive since it holds 6 pictures. We personalized it as suggested and added an extra "He is Risen" to one of the captions. It looks amazing."
"This was the only card I could find that was both Easter card with a cross and birth announcement. It was perfect to highlight our thanks for our new blessing and wish friends and family a happy Easter."
"I loved this card! It enabled me to put 6 photos of my children in it and all of the pictures are quite a size and not small! The unique way it folds out and the way you can turn it around to show 3 on each side, had everyone talking. People have phoned me to ask where I got this card made, it was that impressive! love , love loved it! I honestly couldn't have been happier"
"The quality of our card from Tiny Prints was outstanding, and not only was the quality 5 star, but the service was as well. There are so many different options to personalize the cards, and that makes it a wonderful product to use! We have only used Tiny Prints since our daughter was born, and will continue to do so. With every Tiny Prints card we have sent to our family and friends, we have heard nothing but praise about the card, the quality, and the general presentaion. Thanks Tiny Prints!"

Thank you very much for the review!
Xcape IE and Xcited are on the way to dealers.
Thank you very much for the review!
Xcape IE and Xcited are on the way to dealers.
Which dealers are they?
well seems that lendmeurears.com is one of them. In fact it seems that they are the only ones with Xcited now but correct me if I am wrong.
There's this also:
I'm hoping I can find them somewhere between $80-85 before I take the bite.
well seems that on their website is goes for USD90. the cheapest right now i guesss
What is known about warranty and service for the XCape IE? I'm very eager to buy it but unsure of what technical support is available...
It comes with a standard 1 year warranty and the seller should be the one to contact in case of warranty claim.
I'm looking to buy the Sunrise Audio Xcape IE in Europe, and I've found the dealer http://shop.frogbeats.com - anybody have any experience with them? I know someone that has already bought one from there and he says it all went well but I'd like to hear it from you Head-Fiers! I'm new around here btw :)
have you checked this site http://gd-audiobase.com ?
Cheers man, I'll look into them both and email frogbeats see what they say about shipping to the Netherlands and stuff. I like my stuff to come really quickly cause I'm an impatient bugger
there's also another site but not a europe site. http://www.lendmeurears.com/
Just ordered it from them! Rather excited about this. I hope they're legit. And I guess anybody else can use the coupon code!:
nice one! you got a good deal, let us know about your impressions
Aight. I got them yesterday, which means 3 day shipping. Which is better than that Russian alternative, that said 2 weeks! And Frogbeats has great service. They actually refunded me 10% because I told them I was a student so I got the 20% discount!
very very nice pictures!
i heard they are coming with new more products soon

Though many Senegalese I have met since arriving in Dakar last week have quickly smiled and reminded me that today is, in fact, the day of Obama's inauguration, their pleasure at this historic event seems to stop short of exuberance. It appears that I am not in Chicago anymore, nor am I in Kenya.
Senegal has plenty of problems of its own, problems a new American president isn't going to solve overnight, if at all.
The debate over homosexuality, which is illegal in Senegal, rages after the recent imprisonment of nine gay activists. The price of a bag of rice — a food staple whose cost functions as a sort of economic barometer — has doubled in the past year. Rising unemployment leaves countless young men loitering and hustling in the streets. A conversation about local politics or democracy becomes one about corruption and unfulfilled promises.
Discussions of Obama's intelligence, charisma and leadership skills remain firmly couched in an understanding of the litany of challenges he will face, of which the economy is the constant refrain.
"Obama, la présidence des incertitudes," is the headline of an article about Obama's inauguration on the third page of today's Le Quotidien, a popular Senegalese newspaper. It says a new era has dawned in the U.S., but it's going to be a busy one with no guarantees of success.
Still, there is a real appreciation for what Barack, as some simply call him, (and the United States, for that matter) has achieved as the first black president of the United States. A young law student I met in the streets of Dakar this morning said he understood the hope and excitement many Americans feel.
"C'est une fierté partagée," he said. "It's a pride we share."

Wickham Bishops is a village in Essex, England. The place-name 'Wickham Bishops' is first attested in the Domesday Book of 1086, where it appears as 'Wicham', meaning 'dwelling place with a (dairy) farm'. 'Bishops' refers to the fact that the land belonged to the Bishop of London. [edit] Research Tips

The sliders are sloppy to eat, and the toppings tend to blur into a blend of dully defined flavors. For instance, a thin, tender "lamburger" comes lavished with "lavender-coriander honey, apple-fennel slaw, and ouzo mustard." The taste is predominantly that of lamb and sweet, mayonnaise-y slaw. Not bad, mind you — just not as good as it sounds. The vegetarian slider is a delicious mush of black beans, barley, and tomato-chili marmalade. A beef slider boasts more traditional and cleanly delineated garnishes: Nueske's bacon, guacamole, tomato, and Vermont cheddar. Also on the bill are little patties culled from crab, blackened fish, and duck.
View a photo slide show from Haven.
A skewer of grilled, skinned chicken thighs, dry-rubbed overnight in jerk spices, comes bookended with red pepper squares and served atop thin wheels of cucumber and pineapple slices marinated in spiced rice vinegar — all drizzled with Scotch bonnet-infused honey. Alas, the poultry proved undercooked; an apology preceded a replacement order served with another apology. The staff here is unerringly polite and coolly professional in its own rock 'n' roll way.
The chicken, when cooked, is delectable, and so is a kebab of juicy Swedish meatballs interspersed with softly roasted cremini mushrooms. Meatballs are culled from beef, pork, and brioche bread crumbs and sauced with veal demi-glace and white truffle oil. Organic microcilantro sprouts accompany the meatballs, as do dabs of sweet/sour lingonberry gastrique.
"Nitro ice cream," for two, changes flavors on a seminightly basis. Erickson makes the custard bases in the morning and then blasts them per order into ice cream via liquid nitrogen. The result: maple-bacon, the flavor du jour, presented in a surprisingly ordinary ice-cream parfait glass but with a less-common cloud of fog swirling around it. The texture is extra-creamy and dense, the maple flavor mellow but enlivened with strips of chewy, sugar-cinnamon-and-nutmeg-dusted bacon. Additional toppings change nightly; Captain Crunch is a popular one.
Our main quibble: Teeny tables used for dining here are almost as low as a typical coffee table. After a certain amount of time spent leaning forward and back for each bite of food and sip of cocktail, it can feel as though you're reaching your limit on an ab machine at the gym.
While we finish off the ice cream, kinetic paisley-like patterns spread like cartoon shadows on the walls. The images change at a leisurely, never dizzying, pace. Still, Haven is not for everyone. I wouldn't take my dad or cranky, old acquaintances here. But for people seeking scintillating snacks and drinks in a stimulating environment, Haven should be heaven. Or maybe the Himalayas.

'Barbershop' isn't offensive; it's reassuring
Even before the box-office hit "Barbershop" had ended, I grasped the power of the moment in my neighborhood theater: An African-American audience felt liberated enough to look at the wrongs of the past and walk away laughing.
Even though some civil rights leaders have been offended by jokes in the movie, they represent real strength not the kind that comes from the ballot box or the boardroom, but the kind rooted in a heartfelt belief that a community's chief concern is its own viewpoint, not what others might think.
Ever since the civil rights movement, African-Americans have gauged power and progress to a degree by how well or poorly whites treated us or thought of us. Protect the image at all costs that's the unwritten, unspoken mandate our children were taught. And it's certainly understandable once you stop and consider the image that some European Americans had developed of us, and presented to us, via the media. For decades, anytime a white made an offensive racial comment or statement, blacks went on the attack. Ground is harder to gain and easier to lose when you are the minority.
This strategy, however, does not fit the young African-American artists of today who are trendsetters in fashion, sports, and music. Hip whites now monitor what these black trendsetters think, say, and do and not the other way around, as it was a generation ago.
Different generations wield power in different ways. But what happens when there is still only one set of leaders who try to represent the old and the young? You get a clash, the type of drama unfolding outside movie theaters showing "Barbershop."
In one two-minute "Barbershop" scene, Cedric the Entertainer who plays a funny, off-the wall character named Eddie pontificates in the hallowed halls of earning: the community barbershop. He wisecracks that since Rosa Parks was not the first black to refuse to ride on the back of the bus, she was not "special," just "tired." He goes on to tell the barbershop crowd, which soundly protests his assertions, that O.J. Simpson "did it," and Rodney King got what he deserved. He also takes a swipe at Jesse Jackson and makes quick mention of Dr. King's extramarital affairs.

A slow, vertical descent will keep you out of the prop wash as will dropping like a stone with the throttle cut. The OP was in that middle state, where he's descending fast enough to encounter his own pro wash but not fast enough to drop right through it. You banging the throttle up and down isn't proving your point. |

You could take the case off the camera and lose about 6g and also remove the battery for another 4g and run it off the MQX battery via a cable soldered to the +/- points on the board. Don't know what size the tiny socket is on the 808 for the plug on the end of the cable though.

I experience prop wash on my Ladybird, just much less than my Q. the Ladybird prop wash is minor and the gyros (and accelerometers?) do a good job of correcting it, while the Q prop wash is noticeably more pronounced.
cracked booms on the Q could also cause more prop wash (and instability in general). I feel like many Q owners don't realize how wobbly their booms have become becuse there aren't really any visual signs of damage. people say "I've crashed it X amount of times with no damage," but I wonder how much torsion their booms have. I have found that even after minor crashes the booms can start exhibit more torsion without being cracked. I remember I had 2 or 3 cracked booms. it would fly ok but very wobbly even indoors. replaced them and it flew like new. Q owners, try twisting your booms back and forth. do they twist? brand new ones have almost 0 torsion. |

First Post! Hello everyone!
A couple days ago I bought a mQX and a cheap Spectrum DX5E to bind it too and have been having a blast learning to fly it around indoors at home and at the warehouse I work at, I'm still only nose out hovering and maneuvering but I'm also trying nose in hovering (which usually leads to a mild crash). My question to you is this. Does the mQX have the same controls as the bigger multi rotors? Will learning to fly this quad directly relate to flying a larger multi rotor? After watching a lot of videos being done from multi rotors I want to build one and experiment with FPV and video. Anyhow, my battery is charged and I'm itching to fly it again! Regards |
Aug 17, 2012, 12:23 AM | ||
PS: get yourself a few more batteries; the mQX is even more fun when you can spend an afternoon burning through 6 or 7 batteries |

iamsuperbleeder, good to know the controls work the same. I also fully intend on getting more batteries as it is I'm getting over 14 minutes of hover time with my new toy, it's trimmed and hovers great sometimes almost hands off.
There was almost no wind tonight so I took it outside and it was so much fun, i'm still a little afraid to actually fly around, more of a hover over there and back kind of thing, nose in hovering is still messing with my head... I've got some time to learn and money to earn before I can start building a bigger multi rotor. I've been reading the forums for a couple weeks and watching hours of FPV videos! I'm not entirely new to the RC world but I am new to electric motors and speed controllers/batteries... |

I've been flying nine minutes on the stock battery and the charger tells me that I'm depleting it to about 76 percent. If I go to ten minutes flying, it reaches 80 percent discharge. At 14 minutes, you may be digging deeply enough into the battery to reduce its lifespan.

I fly for 7mins on the stock lipo and let the motors cool in between packs. 40 flights on original stock lipo, with no noticeable loss of performance. 10 flights on second stock lipo, as above. Total 50 flights on quad, all parts original, no noticeable sign of deterioration in performance of individual motors, although one has always been a bit notchy compared to the other three. |

It's not even that it gets squirrely, it's just a total lack of control period. If I give it 15% of throttle to play with it'll be fine. I'll report back with the result later on. |

But you should try v929 replacement booms, they are cheap as dirt ($1.20) and more rugged than stock ones that arrive with quad! I've just compared replacement ones, with those from clean BNF unit that arrived yesterday and they are defo better. I planned to replace only cracked one but replaced all of them and they are super stiff. And yes, even small crash can cause invisible damage to boom and it becomes loose. |
