Economists are predicting a pullback in Singapore's quarter-on-quarter growth rate in the current period as the city-state's economy eases into a more sustainable mode. A year-on-year growth rate in the third quarter of 3.8% is expected to match that of the previous quarter, which was marked by a 15.5% growth spurt from the first quarter.

Hydroshine Lip Gel is a rich balm-like lip gloss with a luxuriously smooth texture that glides onto lips. The sheer color and moderate shine are attractive, but Hydroshine Lip Gel doesn't stay on for very long and must be reapplied at least once an hour.
Although some shades, like Tangerine (bright orange) and Blackberry (dark purple), seem like they would be less attractive than the other more subtle reds and pinks, all of the shades are workable because the colors leave only a very subtle tint.
Sensitive noses, be forewarned: Hydroshine Lip Gel is ultra-fragrant, which is a big reason why it didn't earn a better rating from us (see More Info for details).
Daily use of products that contain a high amount of fragrance, whether the fragrant ingredients are synthetic or natural, causes chronic irritation that can damage healthy collagen production, lead to or worsen dryness, and impair your skin's ability to heal. Fragrance-free is the best way to go for all skin types. If fragrance in your makeup is important to you, it should be a very low amount to minimize the risk to your skin (Sources: Inflammation Research, December 2008, pages 558–563; Skin Pharmacology and Physiology, June 2008, pages 124–135, and November-December 2000, pages 358–371; Journal of Investigative Dermatology, April 2008, pages 15–19; Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, March 2008, pages 78–82; Mechanisms of Ageing and Development, January 2007, pages 92–105; and British Journal of Dermatology, December 2005, pages S13–S22).
Ulta Beauty At-A-Glance
Strengths: Inexpensive; several good mascaras; the blush, brow pencil, eyeshadows, and most of the foundations are worth a look; a few intriguing skin-care products (but nothing you cannot find from lots of other brands).
Weaknesses: Testers are not always available nor are the Ulta displays consistently clean; bad liquid eyeliners; poor-to-average cleansers; nothing-special pencil eyeliners; requires careful shopping because the makeup is such a mixed bag--for every good product there are two unimpressive ones.
Since Ulta was founded in 1990, the company has continued to carve out a unique position as a specialty beauty store by offering a large selection of upscale and drugstore cosmetics in all price ranges, all under one roof. There are currently over 675 Ulta locations across the United States, and, like Sephora, Ulta sells its own product line right alongside more familiar brands such as Revlon, Murad, and philosophy.
The Ulta Collection offers a variety of basic makeup products, from foundation to eye shadow to lip gloss. Nearly all items in the Ulta Collection are inexpensive, and its lower price point is a major draw.
As with most cosmetics lines, Ulta has its share of good and bad products; however, it seems for every good to great makeup product the line has two average-to-poor options. Testers may or may not be available, so choose wisely.
Among the safer categories of Ulta makeup are the eyeshadows, many of the mascaras, brow products, and most of the foundations, particularly the cream-to-powder and powder formulas.
Despite our enthusiasm for Ulta's large selection of eyeshadow, the quality is inconsistent, especially when it comes to texture and how they apply, even among different shades in the same category. The best way to shop this line is to pay attention to which products we've reviewed favorably and to take extra time to play with the products in-store (assuming the Ulta you frequent keeps testers available).
In recent years, Ulta has branched out from makeup to skin care. Their namesake skin care has the same affordable price point as the makeup, and some of the products are actually quite good. Skip the cleansers, ignore the moisturizers in jar packaging, and forget about the pore-tightening products...the rest is worth exploring, but again, this is not a brand to shop without some knowledge of what you're buying and how it performs.

The Washington Post sounded just like a Democratic Party rag, getting out a hanky at the news that Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid won't run for re-election. The front-page headline was "Reid laying down gloves after 28 years in Senate: From hardscrabble childhood, he rose to pinnacle of power." Inside, the headline was "Democrats' master of manuever will not seek reelection in 2016."
Post congressional correspondent Paul Kane tenderly eulogized Senator Reid as if he'd already passed away.

CNN and New Day anchor Chris Cuomo stacked the day against social conservatives again on Friday morning. A segment on Indiana Governor Mike Pence's passing of a Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), CNN asked on screen"'Religious Freedom' Law Legalize Discrimination?," as Cuomo wondered out loud "'why is there so much concern about how others choose to love?"
Cuomo then welcomed his guest, Michelangelo Signorile, a radical gay activist and satellite radio host who once displayed his loving tolerance by telling a professing homosexual Mitt Romney supporter to "buy some arsenic...and take it."

Did you know that Republicans are in "unquestioned" "lockstep" support for Israel? That's how some New York Times headline writers saw it in an analysis by reporter Peter Baker, "For Republican Candidates, Support for Israel Is an Inviolable Litmus Test."
The initial online headline portrayed the GOP as mindless slavish drones for Israel: "Republicans, in Shift, Demand Lockstep Support for Israel." The extremely unflattering language crept into the story's text box: "Anything but unquestioned backing of the Jewish state can mean trouble."

As a long-term strategy for defeating jihadists, Americans blaming George W. Bush ad infinitum is sure to be a winner -- for jihadists. It's right up there with American retreat from leadership in the world as high on their list of goals. And sure enough, former congressman Barney Frank heartily endorses both.

Texas Senator Ted Cruz, who announced for president this last week, is completely understanding of what lies ahead. Said a wry Cruz to Fox's Megyn Kelly: "Well, look, there's nothing like the warm embrace of the mainstream media."
In other words? In other words the conservative presidential candidate realizes that the supposedly "objective" mainstream media can't abide conservatives and will do anything and everything to paint him as some sort of wild-eyed crazy man. But the obvious question arrises. Who is more mainstream? The liberal media or Ted Cruz?

Yahoo! News published a story about the 100th anniversary of Miami Beach. If you read the article you will at first be treated to some interesting information about the tourist destination. Unfortunately, the author, Diego Urrdaneta, could not restrain himself from finally subjecting the readers to the usual leftwing agenda about how global warming (or "climate change" as they now call it when the warming didn't happen) is causing the sea level to rise.

A contentious battle between supporters of religious freedom and people in favor of gay rights in Indiana reached a turning point on Thursday, when Governor Mike Pence signed Senate Bill 101 -- a measure that both the state House and Senate had passed earlier in the week -- into law after stating: "The legislation is about respecting and reassuring Hoosiers that their religious freedoms are intact."

However, blogger Arthur Chu wrote an article the same day for the liberal Daily Beast website on this topic with the title "Gay Money Is No Good in Indiana" under the subhead "Bigots Vs. Business."
Michael Moore's Presidential Dream: Free Health Care, Free College, Massive Defense Cuts, and Three-Down FootballBy Tom Johnson | March 28, 2015 | 12:59 PM EDT
Many people fantasize about what they'd try to accomplish if they were president of the United States. Some even write it down, and a few publish their thoughts, as Moore did earlier this week in the 150th-anniversary issue of The Nation. A few of the ítems on Moore's list of twenty seem to be meant humorously (e.g., "free HBO for everyone") but he's serious about the clear majority of them, which are consistent with the lefty views on economic and political issues that he's expressed since the 1980s, first as a print journalist and then in movies such as Roger & Me and Fahrenheit 9/11.

This is what happens when you have a 17-year "pause" in supposedly human-caused "global warming" and need to maintain appearances.
The Associated Press's Stylebook has now given journalists who pay attention to its guidelines permission to use the term "climate change" when they would previously have felt it necessary to call it "global warming." The agenda-driving clue is seen in the wire service's laughable explanation for the change (HT Twitchy):

Andrea R. Jain bemoaned how a "growing number of individuals and institutions oppose yoga, and actively encourage fear of it" in a Thursday item on Quartz, an online magazine from the parent company of The Atlantic.

It's a vicious cycle: the media are influencing pro-choice organizations which, in turn, are influencing the media.
On March 25, George Zornick, Washington editor of The Nation, wrote a piece for his outlet entitled, "Let's Just Get Rid of the Hyde Amendment." Ilyse Hogue, president of NARAL Pro-Choice America, shared his piece before releasing her own letter to House members demanding the end of the Hyde Amendment, legislation which prohibits taxpayer-funding for abortion. MSNBC was next to blast the message.

The latest "TED Talk" on the Interet featured the "inspired thinker" Monica Lewinsky. She should be doing something different -- in the lingo of that time, move on. But she keeps returning to the scene of her obscene behavior, and now insists we feel her pain, that she is the "Patient Zero" of "slut shaming."
Lewinsky wishes to reinvent herself as an evangelist and a guru, but how to do it? Call it shame-shaming.

Friday's CBS Evening News played up the "growing backlash" by social liberals against a new law in Indiana that protest the religious liberties of business owners. Correspondent Adriana Diaz spotlighted how "the protests have grown from Indiana's state house to a torrent on social media." She also played clips or read excerpts from statements of four opponents of the law, while only featuring two from supporters.

I was hearing a loud squealing noise when started. Then it would go away when it was warm. The steering was fine. The mech. said the differential was bad and it housed the rack and pinion which had failed too, and had to be replaced. Total cost would be $1400.00 installed but, he said something about the axle at first. Now he says it is the differential. I'm feeling like I'm being taken advantage of.

TravelPod Member ReviewsHotel Concordia Venice
A splurge, but definitely worth it for our first trip to Venice. Great location off St. Mark's Square made it easy to locate. The staff was exceptionally accommodating and friendly. The room was a decent size with lovely furnishings and the bathroom was modern and very well appointed, including jacuzzi tub. The breakfast buffet was included with our room and was very nice. The hotel staff was able to recommend very good restaurants for us.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel Concordia Venice
Great family room and private terrace!!!!!
We stayed in the family room with our two kids. What a great location with an incredible view of the Basillica. It has a private terrace with a nice table that seats 6 people with an unbelievable view of the Church. I highly recommend this hotel, especially if you are traveling with kids and ask for the family room with the private terrace!!
Great family room
We stayed at the Concordia in January of 2003. The location is super - right off St. Marks Square. We are 2 adults and 3 kids and they had the most amazing family room. It was a duplex, with a king bed and bathroom downstairs and an upstairs "attic" with 3 twin beds. The room also had a terrace that overlooked the bell tower on the square. We paid 320 Euros a night, which included breakfast for 5 and tax. I thought that was very reasonable, especially for Venice, which seems to be a very expensive city. I read the negative comments that other people wrote, but I felt that the breakfast was just fine and the people who worked there weren't pushy. I totally recommend this hotel to anyone - especially if you are traveling with kids!
A great place to stay.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Concordia. The rooms were beautiful and the location is ideal. The staff was very good, with the desk clerks being especially helpful. I would definitely stay there again.
Concordia wonderful hotel
I spent seven days at the Hotel Concordia. Everyone at the hotel was very helpful and considerate. I had been injured by a water taxi and the hotel staff went out of their way to be of service. The hotel is beautiful and it is located on Saint Mark's square. Very convient to all the sights.I highly recommend this hotel.
Just came back from 3 nights there. Excellent hotel. reasonible prices for venice. nothing was to much trouble for the staff. Proberbly the best location in Venice, would stay there again.
Concordia is a nice place
We stayed at the Concordia for our first night in Venice. I thought this was a fine hotel. I loved the decour in my room. The room was clean. The Concergie was friendly and knowledgable. No Internet. I'd stay here again.
We didn't find it that bad.
Contrary to the previous two reviews, we did get a complimentary drink and 'nibblies'. Of course you are offered the 'free' trip to Murano glassworks and the walking tour of Venice. But you don't have to go, you can say no. As it was, we did go to Murano, watched some fabulous glass-blowing, were shown the showroom, but didn't buy anything. We also didn't take the walking tour as it was too expensive for us. And lets face it, Venice is easy to walk around. We did however, get them to organise a Gondola ride as it was the same price as others we had enquired about. Our room was lovely and even though it overlooked the back alley, was quiet as the windows were double-glazed. The location is great; near Piazza St Marco, St Mark's Basilica, the jetty etc etc. I've stayed in worse places for the same money.
Avoid This Place
I found this place on the Internet, last minute as we decided to go to Venice on a whim for 1 night while my wife and I were in Florence.
It cost 130 Euros. The room was like a shoe box. Even though the hotel was empty, they escorted us to the bar until the room was "ready". Here, they offered us some free, stale pate. It was gross. I took 1 bite and thought I was going to puke. Then they offered us a drink, which we thought was free, but they charged us $4.20 Euros or $6. What a scam. Then they held our passports and wouldn't give it back until I made a major fuss. Every time we left the hotel, the pushy concierge and front desk person tried to push us to buy various tours and/or eat in their restaurant. I've never been constantly harrassed like this in a hotel before.
People stay here because of its great location by the Piazza San Marco but I would avoid at all costs because the people are really creepy.
PS - As I went to the restrooms, my wife saw them put the pate that she didn't eat and the one's i partially bit into, back into the buffet trays that they used for lunch.
Isn't worth the money
I was promised (via e-mail) a free welcome drink, a 10% reduction on the dinner, a free entrance to the Venice casino, ... and I didn't get any of these 'advantages'. I had to pay for the welcome drink, I did not get the 10% discount, etc .... .
Moreover, having to pay over $2 for a soft boiled egg and over $2 for a freshly squeezed orange jus is a complete outrage ! I have already spent some time in quite a number of less expensive hotels where I did not have to pay extra for any warm breakfast !
The room we stayed in (room 308) was very small, the staff was friendly, but once checked out didn't seem to bother to be friendly anymore, ...
To conclude: we paid over $300 per night, but it wasn't worth the money and I would certainly NOT go back to this hotel anymore.

The critical analysis of urban issues helps students evaluate the various political, sociocultural, and economic strategies available to urban planners, local governments, nonprofit organizations, law enforcement agencies, and others seeking to remedy the problems of contemporary cities.
The Urban Studies major provides an interdisciplinary opportunity for students to explore all aspects of cities from a wide variety of perspectives, such as urban life, urban politics, urban economics, urban sustainability, urban planning, urban culture, and the processes of urbanization.
The Urban Studies major also encourages students to take full advantage of one of LMU's greatest assets, its many links to the extraordinarily dynamic, diverse city that surrounds it. Los Angeles is both an educational resource and a laboratory for Urban Studies majors.
Urban Studies majors examine urbanization and its associated social, cultural, economic, and demographic processes. They look at the structures and expressions of urbanization and urban life associated with modern and postmodern cities in the U.S. and around the world.
They learn the common theories, practices, and methodologies employed in contemporary urban planning and policy analysis. Urban Studies majors also explore the basic research questions and agendas associated with urban issues, and the general expressions of urbanization and urban life in Los Angeles.
You might be an Urban Studies major if you:
Our faculty members are experts in the wide range of fields and topics related to urban life, including urban geography, urban planning, urban ecology, community redevelopment, historic preservation, economic development, urban sustainability, and urban greenspace in the United States and abroad.
Our faculty travel extensively; do research, planning, and community service work; serve on boards and city commissions; publish in leading peer-reviewed and professional journals such as Urban Geography and Environment and Planning; and provide expert opinion to local and national media outlets including the Los Angeles Times and New York Times.
All of our students serve internships in Los Angeles and beyond. Students have worked with police investigators in one of the world's largest law enforcement agencies, with planners on the largest urban in-fill project in the United States, with scientists measuring the effects of urban pollution on marine life, and in many other exciting internships.
Students majoring or minoring in Urban Studies receive a strong foundation for careers in urban planning and design, city government and management, public administration, policy analysis, social welfare, criminal justice, law enforcement, human resources management, and community organizing. Urban Studies majors also go on to graduate school in fields such as urban planning, public administrations, and the law.

I love your answer.new Miss manners column:
I am married to a wonderful man who is in excellent physical shape. He works out regularly, and has the stature to show for it.
It happens quite often that we will be at a social gathering and someone will inevitably ask him "what he does" to maintain his physique. He is always happy to briefly explain that he lifts weights consistently, takes nutritional supplements in addition to a healthy diet, etc.
However, I am dismayed at how often this will be followed by some implication that he uses illegal steroids. Joking or not, this strikes me as incredibly rude and inappropriate.
Heaven forbid a man got his biceps the old fashioned way! A "that's none of your business" type response seems to us to imply that he does use steroids, so how can we counter this question without being hostile?
"By being shocked. This is such an effective way of stopping people dead that Miss Manners wonders why it is not used more often.
At the mention of steroids, jokingly or not, he or you --or both, if you are both present-- should shoot your eyebrows up to your hairline and say, "Don't you know that's bad for you? You should never, never consider doing that!" and so on and on."
How about: "Ha, no way does he take anabolic steroids, you should see the size of his balls!"

Maybe he should have just been like Obama and gave us nothing.
Geithner to Ryan about Obama's solution:
"We're not coming before you to say we have a definitive solution to our long-term problem. What we do know is we don't like yours."
Not even f'ing trying is clearly a much better approach, right, Angela? I'm sure you would have said, I think it was pure genius of Ryan to admit he has no f'ing plan whatsoever.
Obama has NO PLAN to do anything about debt or long term solvency. His only plan is to keep spending money like it is going out of style which will only exacerbate the problem, get out of office in 4 years, and go make 500k giving speeches while someone else has to deal with the impending debt crisis.

haven't read all the other comments yet,so i apologize if this is old news by now.
Jesse Jackson Jr is in Congress, son of teh minister activist. sonny has been battling bi-polar and G-I disorders for several months now.
my beef isn't that he has issues and is out of work, but rather that he has been quiet about it while he has "mood disorders" diagnosed that get dribbled out to his constituency. there's also another congressman who has been out on extended medical leave after having a stroke. his office has been a little more forthcoming with updates, while still "requesting privacy while he rehabilitates".
my bigger concern, and one that is rarely echoed in the media taht i watch, is that these guys were elected, and no one appears to be doign their job. who's representing the people? heck, in my office, if you're out more than 12 weeks, they find someone else to do your work. you might be able to get teh same job back, but it might be antoehr similar one instead. is there someithgn like taht for legislators? If not, why not?(ok, buyign the job aside...)

His plan is to raise taxes on the rich and bring in 68 billion more of revenue a year. That does almost NOTHING.
Even Bill Clinton has stated on record that even if you taxed folks like him at 100% it still wouldn't solve our budget problems.
Bill Clinton would like to see Obama wait for the economy to improve, before raising taxes on EVERYONE (the 50% of us who actually pay federal income tax I mean). He doesn't want to see spending cuts, tho.
I liken that to a farmer saying don't slaughter the sow until she puts on a few more pounds first. The difference between a farmer and a democrat, is that the democrat would try to explain to the sow why it's in the sows best interest to be slaughtered.

Just read an article titled "Study: Shoppers Might Avoid Buying American-Made Clothing To Save A Few Bucks".
Question to the peanut gallery.
How many of you proactively check to see where the items you buy are manufactured? Cars and brand name electronics aside, do you pick up a shirt and check to see where it was made? Shoes?
I just felt like the title was oddly worded. When I shop for clothes, there are 2 considerations:
-do I like the way it looks
-is it an acceptable price
Deciding not to buy something because it is too expensive, and it just happens to be American made, is not the same as "avoiding buying american".

I get most of my kids' stuff at Old Navy and Target. No need to check the lables there; I *know* that it's not made here and that's probably why I can afford it.
There are other things that I might check on and care about the answer; toys come to mind. And believe it or not, cleaning supplies made here seem to be cheaper.

I look for satisfaction of my needs and quality. I do not subscribe to the "buy American just to buy American" mentality. First, the public is ignorant as to what portion of the "American" goods they consume are actually designed/engineered/manufactur ed/owned overseas, and vice versa.
Second, that mentality is a large part of what got the American car companies in trouble. They counted on people buying American, regardless of what cars were best, and the quality kept going down, and people finally said screw it. They had the ability all along, they were just lazy. That is evidenced by how quickly they were able to get their act together.

I acknowedge your disagreements. A lot of people share them. My point is that in addition to griping, you ( and everyone esle here) should DO something. Stuff envelopes. Man a phone bank. Fix teh computer in teh Republican county office. Give money if you have extra. Reserach a position, see how other states/counties have done it and write a term paper then send it to your Rep as a suggestion. Should I keep going?
Essentially, earn your griping rights

68 billion in additional revenue is nothing when you are racking up 1000+ billion in debt annually. It doesn't magically put us on anything close to a sustainable course. It also does nothing to avoid the big uptick ten years down the road on Geithner's chart:
Geithner even admitted Obama has no solution to it and admitted that they aren't even attempting to find a solution to it. His solution is to continue to contribute to the problem. You don't have to like Romney to admit that is crap leadership.

I've done my share of campaigning. Know what? NONE OF MY PEOPLE WON! You know the problem with democracy? If a majority of the people are stupid, DEMOCRACY DOESN'T WORK. Jesse Jackson Jr has been ABSENT for the last six moths, he won overwhelmingly! He should never have been on the ballot! Who's running this thing?!
State democrats have raised our taxes, banned smoking, initiated backseat seatbelt laws, allowed illegals to go to school for free while citizens have to pay for education, run our state into the ground financially, denied us our second amendment rights, AND THE IDIOT VOTERS IN THIS STATE STILL, STILL AFTER ALL THAT, STILL VOTED FOR THEM TO KEEP THE SENATE!!! Thankfully, we won the house, and hopefully we'll win the governorship, but that just goes to show you how STUPID democrat voters are!
You can't educate people like that. You can't reason with them and make them understand, nothing you do can do any good. Our only chance is to take back the governorship and turn this state red again, that's gonna be a tough order, though. I'm all for letting Cook, McHenry, and Lake counties succeed from the rest of Illinios and let them form their own state. Let's get THAT on the ballot in two years.

Loss of classic Monopoly piece will be a 'heartbreaker'
Monopoly players that are fans of the wheelbarrow playing piece better take notice. The piece is currently on the losing end of votes to remove one of the classic play tokens as Hasbro runs a promotion to bring a new piece into play.
1 of 5
This image provided by Hasbro shows a possible new Monopoly game piece. Makers of the classic game Monopoly want players to "take a chance" on a new token. In an effort to jazz up the board game, which debuted around 1935, Hasbro announced Wednesday, Jan. 9, 2013, it is holding a Facebook contest to eliminate one of the eight classic tokens and introduce a new one that will be decided on by a Facebook vote.

Hi HBT
This is my first time here and will be my first time brewing But i need some advice.
As i said i want to start brewing my own cider. Iv been looking around for a while at other posts and have decided i would like to start off by making some "Turbo Cider" as it sounds simple and i just want to get to grips with the whole Brewing scene first.
Is there a basic recipe i could use as a beginner to follow? iv heard adding sugar will make a stronger cider but adding too much can ruin it completely so how much is enough? And will using bread yeast be ok for Turbo Cider or would it be worth grabbing another type?
I Have a 1 Gallon DJ btw. If anybody would be kind enough to link me to or post a step by step Recipe that would also be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Alot In Advance
Buy any ale, cider, or wine yeast, they will all do better then bread yeast. I can promise you that though personal experience. Ale and cider yeasts have better chances of leaving some residual sweetness, but don't expect much, because it is easy to ferment cider to complete dryness. Also, don't add sugar. It not only ups the abv and makes the cider dryer, but it also means longer fermentation and longer aging.
Buy some good preservative free juice or cider, pitch your yeast and wait. You can rehydrate your yeast, but I don't find it necessary. Make sure you have a bung and airlock on your gal. jug, the co2 has to be able to escape as it is being produced.
Also, don't expect anything "turbo". If you ferment just straight juice, it should finish fermenting in just a few weeks. Once it is completely clear, as in you can read a newspaper through the jug (if its glass or at least clear) then you can bottle. You can drink it as soon as you want, but the longer you wait, I promise you the better it will taste.
Thanks alot for the quick reply. really cleared alot of things up for me.
Much appreciated.
You don't say where you are from.
Looking at your profile you're an 18 yo female.
If this is true then it's illegal for you to make any alcohol.
18 years old is old enough in the UK to brew. It's fine.
I'd try just fermenting the cider without sugar at first- that way you can see the process and it'll be pretty quick and easy and give you about 5-6% ABV cider.
After that if you want to experiment, then you have the basics down.
I'm guessing if they are willing to use bread yeast, they are not of age

The hotel is extremely close to post and has easy access to a Walmart and Chinese food buffet. Everything you need for a PCS. If you are travelling with kids, it's nice to have a separate room in the suite so everyone does not have to go to sleep at the same time.
