Question about Episcias
How do I tell which Episcias to keep in bubble bowls and which ones to keep in pots. I have read that you can hang them and some pictures that I have checked out seem to be in something like a bulb pot. whats the proper way to keep them and how do I know when ordering what to do, it does not seem to tell anywhere. Help, Portia
I have Episcia "Chocolate Soldier" and its habit is to trail over the side of the pot. I have it in a 6" pot, and the plant totals 30" from tob to bottom. It is on a bookcase and trails down the end. It also has red flowers and has been blooming constantly for weeks. If you don't want it to be so large, you just pick off the trailing plantlets.
Here is a link that might be useful: picture of Episcia
I automatically pop them into a terrarium environment when they come home with me, but in a (very) recent move, had to place three of them in the bathroom (which is airy and windowed) before the "terrarium" (an old 50 gallon aquarium) got here. They are still very glowy & happy looking after about 10 days, but I put them back in the box once it arrived because it's lighted. These were unnamed hybrids that look like they may be related to one I've seen called 'Silver Surfer.' Markings are light green with a silver midrib and some chocolate here and there.
I have another that I'm pretty sure is the pink version of 'Acajou' and that baby seems nearly drought tolerant!
Not that I'm sloppy with labels or anything...
Well, I guess I have to be the picky guy this time. The picture above is a nice healthy E. cupreata, but it is NOT CHOCOLATE SOLDIER!!!!! This comes up regularly. I used to grow Chocolate Soldier and have been looking for another for some time (anybody know who has one?) It's an old hybrid--think I got mine in the early 'seventies--and I carried it around for numerous moves but I guess one too many. It has a smooth even chocolate colored leaf with just the center vein and barely into the larger veins in a light silvery green. It is a beautiful plant and quite distinctive. It does not have a green leaf with splashes of brown and a brown edge. It is solid brown except for a very small area in the center of the leaf--kind of a tree pattern I've heard it called. I don't know why, but someone a long time ago I guess started calling episcias 'Chocolate Soldier' whether they were or not. Please help clear up this confusion. I thank you!

|Vegas police still probing NASCAR driver scuffle
|Written by Admin
|Friday, 11 March 2011 12:40
Las Vegas police Officer Bill Cassell said Friday that no significant injuries and no damage resulted from the March 4 altercation in a garage parking lot at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Cassell says no witnesses were immediately identified after Conway filed a police report alleging misdemeanor battery. The results of the police investigation will go to the Clark County district attorney.
Conway briefly drove for Gordon in the Sprint Cup Series last year, and the drivers are suing each other.

Students More Stressed Now Than During Great Depression
Jim LiebeltJim is Senior Writer, Editor and Researcher for the HomeWord Center for Youth and Family at Azusa Pacific University. Jim has over 25 years of experience as a youth and family ministry specialist, and has been on the HomeWord staff since 1998. He has served over the years as a pastor, author, youth ministry trainer, adjunct college instructor and speaker. Jim's culture blog and parenting articles appear on HomeWord.com. Jim is a contributing author of culture and parenting articles to Crosswalk.com. Jim and his wife Jenny live in Olympia, WA.
- 2010 Jan 14
A new study has found that five times as many high school and college students are dealing with anxiety and other mental health issues as youth of the same age who were studied in the Great Depression era.
The findings, culled from responses to a popular psychological questionnaire used as far back as 1938, confirm what counselors on campuses nationwide have long suspected as more students struggle with the stresses of school and life in general.
"It's another piece
of the puzzle — that yes, this does seem to be a problem, that there
are more young people who report anxiety and depression," says Jean
Twenge, a San Diego State University psychology professor and the
study's lead author. "The next question is: What do we do about it?"
Though the study, released Monday, does not provide a definitive correlation, Twenge and mental health professionals speculate that a popular culture increasingly focused on the external — from wealth to looks and status — has contributed to the uptick in mental health issues.
Pulling together the data for the study was no small task. Led by Twenge, researchers at five universities analyzed the responses of 77,576 high school or college students who, from 1938 through 2007, took the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory, or MMPI. The results will be published in a future issue of the Clinical Psychology Review.
Overall, an average of five times as many students in 2007 surpassed thresholds in one or more mental health categories, compared with those who did so in 1938. A few individual categories increased at an even greater rate — with six times as many scoring high in two areas:
• "hypomania," a measure of anxiety and unrealistic optimism (from 5% of students in 1938 to 31% in 2007)
• and depression (from 1% to 6%).
Twenge said the most current numbers may even be low given all the students taking antidepressants and other psychotropic medications, which help alleviate symptoms the survey asks about.

Soy-free Vegan Baking Recipes
Here are all the recipes on Veganbaking.net that are soy-free!
Vegan Pecan Bonbons | Raw | Fruit Sweetened
Heavenly Vegan Hot Chocolate - A Hot Cocoa that's smooth and silky
This Heavenly Vegan Hot Chocolate recipe is great when it's cold outside and you need a nice warm friend. Two different types of chocolate really amplify the cocoa notes which are further enhanced by coconut sugar, a bit of espresso powder and a touch of cayenne. Coconut sugar lends an additional layer of complex richness but if you don't have it, granulated white or turbinado sugar works too. It's then simmered to allow everything to meld together. Feel free to customize it by adding a splash of coffee, mint extract, Kahlua or enjoy it on its own.
Vegan Egg Replacer Powder
Omitting the almighty egg in recipes can lead to serious baking disasters. It's rumored that the Romans put eggs in their concrete to improve its strength. Vegan Egg Replacer Powder is a very effective egg substitute that's great for replacing eggs in most vegan baking recipes where heat is involved. It's an important piece of weaponry in your vegan baking arsenal. When I ran my baking company, Enchanted Oven Baking Co, I used this egg substitute recipe extensively with my cookies to make them soft, dense and chewy.
This binding powder consists of a blend of starch, vegetable gum and a leavener. Arrowroot is used as the starch because it performs well and is one of the most tasteless starches. Baking powder is used to mimic the slight leavening properties that an egg would contribute. Guar or Xanthan gum improves emulsification of fats and oils much like an egg would. Use Egg Replacer Powder as a more affordable direct replacement for Ener-G Egg Replacer.

Vegan Pumpkin Buckwheat Pancakes
This Vegan Pumpkin Buckwheat Pancake recipe features pumpkin enhanced with barley malt syrup, nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves. Buckwheat flour then lends an earthy, nutty richness. They're delightful topped with a touch of almond butter, fruit and/or real maple syrup to brighten up any morning.
Vegan English Muffins
This Vegan English Muffin recipe features just a touch of lemon juice and sugar to enhance its yeast-induced flavors. They're awesome fresh out of the toaster with a little Vegan Butter, jam or whatever your preferred muffin topping is. I've been known to use these as burger buns too. They're not loaded with preservatives and dough conditioners like their store-bought cousins but they'll still keep in the freezer stored in a plastic freezer bag for several months.
Vegan Ginger Carrot Raisin Pancakes
This Vegan Ginger Carrot Raisin Pancake recipe isn't your conventional vegan pancake recipe because it features carrots for a subtle butteriness, raisins for a little extra bonus sweetness and ginger for a hint of spicy finish. it's a great combination of flavors that is further enhanced with a drizzle of maple syrup or Agave Maple Syrup.
Vegan Blueberry Buckwheat Pancakes
This Vegan Blueberry Buckwheat Pancake recipe features blueberries and buckwheat flour which lends them a tart sweetness along with an earthy, nutty richness. You also have the choice of adding either oat bran, wheat bran or wheat germ. These vegan pancakes are delightful topped with a touch of almond butter, additional fruit and/or real maple syrup.
Vegan Banana Walnut Pancakes
Ferocious Vegan French Toast
This Ferocious Vegan French Toast recipe utilizes the creaminess of cashew butter and just the right combination of tahini instead of the usual eggs. These nut butters get slightly toasted during cooking which adds a complex savory richness that's further enhanced by cinnamon and nutmeg. It's a delicious vegan take on the old classic.
Sweet Sticky Vegan Rice Pudding - Kao-Niew-Moon | Gluten-free
Strawberry Sorbet
Raspberry Sorbet
Orange Sorbet
Fresh Lemon Sorbet
Vegan Banana Walnut Ice Cream
Vegan Zucchini Pineapple Muffins or Bread
The subtle buttery flavor of zucchini and intensely sweet flavors of pineapple collide with delicious chaos in this Vegan Zucchini Pineapple Muffin recipe. Flavors are further enhanced by the addition of vanilla extract, cinnamon and nutmeg. Just the right ratio of whole wheat flour and all-purpose flour is used to give these vegan muffins the optimum level of fluffiness.
Vegan Pumpkin Spice Muffins or Bread
This Vegan Pumpkin Spice Muffin recipe has a wonderful warm, buttery flavor that is enhanced by barley malt syrup, lemon juice, cinnamon, ginger and a touch of cloves. Pecans add flavor complexity and a delightful crunch. These vegan muffins are equally good with baked sweet potato purée substituted for the pumpkin as well.

New equine education facility in the works at Texas A&M
Veterinary students at Texas A&M will soon have a new home for equine science education, research and outreach. At a total cost of $80 million, phase 1 of construction began in October. Planning for the new center began in May 2012 when the Texas A&M Board of Regents approved negotiation of a ground lease with an anonymous donor that allowed for construction to begin. Initial construction will include an education and outreach center, facilities for the Texas A&M Equestrian Team, a cross country course in collaboration with Texas A&M Athletics, and new facilities for the Parsons Mounted Cavalry.
With a long history of teaching, research, equine medicine, and outreach, Texas A&M has been a vital contributor to the equine industry for generations. Both the Department of Animal Science in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences and the College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences have been instrumental in providing the equine industry with knowledge and care that have advanced not only equine sciences, but the welfare of the horse as well. The Texas A&M Equine Initiative was created to collaboratively utilize existing expertise within the university to build an equine program that will graduate the industry's future leaders and generate research and veterinary medical care that will improve the industry and the care and welfare of the horse. To support its mission, the Equine Initiative has developed four major imperatives. In each of these areas, the focus will be to enhance and improve upon Texas A&M's existing strengths. The four imperatives are curriculum enhancement, outreach & engagement expansion, facility construction and partnership development.

Her technique is not what made me like her though. She reminds me a lot of my sister
Well yeah every human being is unique in some way, even if a player tries to intentionally copy someone else, it never is the same.
I agree her technique is not what makes her stand out, she has other qualities.
Anyways these kind of discussions are much more enjoyable than those lame "my play is better than your player, because she beat this player while yours hasn't" arguments you guys have.
While on the Anett vs Donna argument, none of us has really seen Donna play so we can't compare. But on results, I don't agree with BlueTrees that seniors is the only way to judge.
For example I find Donna's poor performances in juniors quite worrying, because you can argue that the world's best juniors are more talented than journeywomen that are 200/300 in the rankings. And that she struggles with the unpredictable nature of her opponents in juniors.

Extrapolating from the Euphrates
A new leader is in the White House and the former president's staff disappears along with information about a Middle Eastern country's nuclear program. Israel strikes on its own. This isn't an imaginary scenario about an attack on Iran - it's how the Iraqi reactor was destroyed in 1981
On Monday, August 27, 2007, some of those who were in on the secret of the bombing of the nuclear reactor in Syria, opened Haaretz to the op-ed pages and nearly spilled their coffee on themselves. There were nine days left until the air force sortie and until then supreme efforts had been made to conceal the operation. Insofar as is known, only a few journalists had caught a whiff of it, among them Amos Harel of Haaretz and Ronnie Daniel of Channel 2. But on that day, it seemed, the secret had escaped and appeared in an opinion piece by Haaretz columnist Akiva Eldar ("Failed Marks in Comprehension," Sept. 11). His column referred to an interview with Justice Minister Daniel Friedmann that had appeared in the paper a month earlier (August 17). Friedmann had taunted his interviewers, Orit Shohat and Ze'ev Segal, in his reply to a question about intervention by the High Court of Justice in the route of the separation fence, when human rights are violated. "Human rights were also violated in the bombing of the reactor in Iraq," Friedmann commented. "That doesn't mean that the High Court of Justice needs to intervene in the government's considerations as to whether or not to bomb the Iraqi reactor."
Homing in on this reply, Eldar scoffed at Friedmann for comparing the separation fence to the bombing of the reactor, and finished his piece with the telling line: "The High Court of Justice is a precious asset for a country that asks the world to evince understanding for its policy of occupation and its decision to destroy the nuclear reactor of a neighboring country."
A senior official became alarmed. A colleague whom he called counseled him not to act hastily - maybe at the newspaper they were recalling an old story about the goings-on on the Iraqi side of the Euphrates River quite by chance, without knowing that there was a new story evolving on the Syrian bank of that same river. And indeed, even when, four days later, less than a week before the operation, an article by John Bolton, the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, appeared in The Wall Street Journal, suggesting in print for the first time the possibility that North Korea had disseminated nuclear know-how and materials to Syria, the Israeli press continued to remain silent. It was only on September 9, three days after the operation, that Bolton's remarks were published on the front page of Haaretz as well as in a thinly veiled hint in the op-ed column concerning the nature of the secret, with the rare and evanescent approval of the censor - who hastened to regret that decision.
Alert and sophisticated observers will find it hard to believe in mere chance. One is Samuel Lewis, who was the U.S. ambassador to Israel at the time of the bombing of the reactor in Iraq in June 1981. In the oral history he gave to the American Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training, Lewis enumerated the reports that appeared in the Israeli press during the year that preceded the bombing as part of a list of the signals that prime minister Menachem Begin's government sent to Washington: Act through diplomacy to thwart the Iraqi nuclearization, because if you do not, Israel will act through force. According to this school of thought, things don't leak - they get leaked; and there are no industrious journalists, rather only very industrious politicians, officials and military officers.
Urgent message to Reagan
If the Iraqi reactor is the past and the Syrian reactor is the present, from the differences and similarities between them it is possible to infer something about the behavior pattern of the Israelis and Americans in the two crises, regarding the bumps on the road to the next crisis: the Iranian atom. According to the senior officials of George W. Bush's administration who briefed journalists this past week, there was close coordination in the Syrian affair, but each of the countries still has its own individual considerations and different priorities. The heads of the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency and the National Security Council took care to say that Israel did not request and thus did not receive a "green light" for the operation. This is disingenuous: If there is no red light, driving is permitted.
A senior official, apparently National Security Advisor Stephen Hadley, has said that while Israel attributed immediate danger to the Syrian reactor and wanted to take military action against it, the Americans preferred a mixture of diplomacy and threats of the use of military force, with the aim of dismantling or permanently silencing the reactor so that it would never become operational. This, in effect, is the American line with regard to Iran as well, thus far without success; and in the absence of concrete readiness to move from declarations to deeds, there is no point in threatening the use of force, because the party threatened will not believe that the threat will be carried out.
Were this President Bush's seventh year in the White House, it would have been possible to bet on an attack next year. But Bush will hand over the keys to a new tenant on January 20, 2009. After the departure of Admiral William Fallon - who sabotaged deterrence efforts with regard to Iran with his open opposition to risking a confrontation with that country - his designated successor as commander of CentCom, General David Petraeus, is slated to move from Baghdad into his new position only at the end of the summer or in the fall. The hawkish Petraeus will be Bush's representative to the new administration. Defense Secretary Robert Gates has received approval for his appointment from key senators in the defense field, among them Democrat Carl Levin of Michigan and Republican John McCain of Arizona.
If McCain is elected president, there will indeed be continuity: McCain is Petraeus' most enthusiastic cheerleader in American politics. But a problem is liable to arise if the Democrats win the election. This is the lesson of the Iraqi reactor.
In his memoirs, ambassador Lewis related that on the eve of the Shavuot holiday, June 7, 1981, he and his wife Sally attended a party in the Tel Aviv suburb of Kfar Shmaryahu. From there they went on to the Hilton Hotel in Tel Aviv for a dinner in honor of Willard C. Butcher, then president of Chase Manhattan Bank, who was in Israel at the time. The host was finance minister Yoram Aridor. Butcher had asked Lewis to brief him at his hotel suite, prior to the dinner, about Israeli economics and politics. With Butcher, Lewis found then congressman Jack Kemp, who had already received an economic briefing from Lewis, but had come to hear a repeat performance.
In the midst of the conversation, the phone rang in the hotel room. The duty officer at the embassy had known where to find Lewis. When the ambassador took the phone, he was surprised to hear prime minister Menachem Begin's voice on the phone. "Sam, I would like you to convey urgently a message from me to President Reagan. About one hour ago, our air force destroyed the nuclear reactor near Baghdad; all the planes have returned safely. Please transmit that news as quickly as possible." Lewis sat down on the edge of the bed. He was uncharacteristically silent for a moment, but when he recovered he said, "All right, Mr. Prime Minister. I'll get in touch with Washington right away. Is there anything else you would like to tell me about the incident?"
Begin limited himself to promising to brief the military attaches at the U.S. Embassy. Lewis summoned his bureau chief to the hotel for a meeting outside the suite and then went back to Butcher and Kemp. Later there was a knock on the door: The military attache and his assistant had arrived. Lewis went out to them in the corridor and heard from them that they had been called in for a briefing at the Defense Ministry. There in the corridor Lewis dictated to his bureau chief a telegram to the White House, to be handled with the highest degree of urgency. The bureau chief rushed back to the embassy to send the telegram and Lewis went back into Butcher's suite, apologized, continued with the conversation, and then went on to the dinner.
In Washington, shock waves from the report began to ripple among the top people in president Ronald Reagan's administration.
'Unexplained events'
Begin's news had astounded Lewis; astounded more than surprised, because during the course of 1980 he had been called in for many conversations with Begin and with the heads of the intelligence community, who shared with him their concern about the Osirak reactor. The differences of opinion between the experts of the two countries on the question of how close the Iraqi reactor was to becoming operational are reminiscent of the disputes concerning the Syrian nuclear program and the Iranian nuclear program. The American assessment always sees the problem as less urgent, by about two years, than the Israeli assessment.
"We tried through diplomatic channels to encourage the French and Italians to stop their companies from assisting the Iraqi effort," relates Lewis in his memoirs. "They were supplying the low enriched uranium which would fuel the reactor initially. We were not having much success. Throughout early 1981, there were some unexplained events - a laboratory in France would blow up or a reactor core would be mysteriously damaged before shipment, or a couple of scientists were kidnapped and disappeared. The assumption was that Israel was not just relying on our diplomatic effort to slow down the project, but were using their own clandestine means to try to stop it. But it kept going forward, and as the winter progressed, I began to hear and relayed to Washington a rising Israeli refrain: 'Either the U.S. does something to stop this reactor or we will have to!'" The Israelis, Lewis adds, made use of many channels, including leaks to the press, in order to transmit this message.
The administration of president Jimmy Carter, which did not agree with the Begin government, but knew its positions very well and spoke with it frequently about the Iraqi reactor, left the stage. On January 20, 1981, Ronald Reagan was sworn in as president.
Lewis recalls that at "about the turn of the year, the subject seemed to have disappeared from any conversations. The Israelis stopped complaining; they stopped calling me in; they stopped press leaks." The silence should have sounded an alarm like a siren but the perspicacious ambassador, in his own words, "went to sleep" on the job and in Washington the file on the reactor went missing, literally.
"All the messages on the reactor were of course 'top secret' with very limited distribution," notes Lewis. "After Carter's defeat, as is customary, the government agencies prepare elaborate briefing papers for the transition teams to bring the new administration up to date on the outstanding issues. In the foreign affairs field, the key issues that will confront the administration in the first three months of its tenure are supposed to be identified. I had sent a whole stream of messages about our conversations with the Israelis, Begin's warnings and our sharing of intelligence information. I was concerned that this issue might be overlooked in the transition. So I contacted Washington informally to make sure that a full paper on this subject was being prepared for the transition team. The paper was prepared, but under very restrictive terms - very few copies, very limited distribution."
Lewis assumed that the briefing paper would be passed along to the new secretary of state, Alexander Haig, and to Reagan's staff at the White House. For some reason, this did not happen. Reagan and his national security advisor, Richard Allen, were thunderstruck when the telegram that Lewis dispatched from the hotel corridor arrived. Haig, too, was surprised, though unlike the other top administration people, he welcomed the news, and did not get angry. Lewis, who began to suspect that the new administration was not familiar with the history of the affair, sent the White House a long telegram with a summary of the previous chapters - one of the few telegrams that Reagan bothered to read.
"Then," as Lewis notes, "there was a lot of scurrying trying to find out what happened to the paper written for the transition team and there were some scapegoats fingered. It was not a good time for certain people."
The discussion with the top people in the Bush administration concerning the Syrian affair is no guarantee of its continuation from the same point under its successor in the matter of Iran. Into the crack that gapes between two administrations, especially if they are not both from the same party, are liable to fall a large nuclear reactor and also batteries of surface-to- surface missile launchers.

HG bronzer for me, i'm an NC42 and this is great. I don't like shimmer bronzers because i like to add my own shimmer/highlight etc if i want to. it's great for contouring, the perfect tan color on me. and the smell is SO GOOD. it's also super buildable, one swipe and you get a sheer color.

LOVE this! This is my HG bronzer. I use it for contouring and no other bronzer would do.I hated bronzers before I tried this because my skin tone is "porcelain doll" light. This looks great on me and I love that its matte, because I hate looking ridiculously sparkly. The smell is sooo yummy. It even tastes like chocolate -I know, why am I eating my makeup? Well, I wouldn't have dared to try it, but a girl on YouTube said it actually tasted like chocolate so I put it on my lips over my gloss for a nice tint. It makes sense that it smells and tastes like chocolate because if you look at the ingredients, you will see that they actually put cocoa powder in this product. I would buy this again and again. I'm so glad I've tried this. I originally got this in my Too Faced Glamour Revolution palette.

I have NEVER liked bronzers. I despise looking orange. But one day I asked a friend where she'd been for the weekend as she looked *sun-kissed* and she said she used a Sephora brand bronzer. I thought then that I should maybe give bronzers a try.... maybe they are better nowadays.
So I went to Sephora and said that I wanted to try a bronzer that would NOT make me look orange and WAS NOT sparkly. The woman showed me Too Face's Chocolate Soleil and I fell in love. It is perfect!! The chocolate smell makes it such a delight to put on! I brush it on daily with a powder brush over my cheeks and bridge of my nose (like blush) and sometimes a touch on my forehead.
This is the world's best bronzer. I'm convinced of that.

Best. Bronzer. Ever. I cannot say enough good things about this bronzer. First of all, it smells AMAZING! Secondly, there is absolutely NO ORANGE in it. It stays true to the color you see in the container and it is buildable. It is completely matte which I love, it has zero shimmer. I use this year round for a healthy look all over my face as well as contouring. It is exactly what I was looking for. Although it is pricey at $28 from Sephora, it is well worth it. I've had it for over six months and with daily use, it looks like I will have it for another 6 months or more! I will definately be repurchasing.

Greatt bronzer! Considering only the high end bronzers are good-this one is roughly the same price as nars laguna. But, it has no shimmer (awesome). The smell isnt that great-i dont really like chocolate (lol i know-weird) but its not overwhelming, so its okay. Also, the packaging-amazing. The container is soo sturdy and the mirror inside does not get dirty (AHEM nars packaging-mirrors get dirty fast and stay dirty forevverr) and it is a great, huge mirror for a compact. the most important part of bronzer is the COLOR and how it applies. This color is matte BROWN. No orange, no red, no yellow-it is brown. Also, it applies great and feels like silk (samish texture of MAC mineralize skinfinish). Try this for your next bronzer-you wont be disappointed!!

For those saying it is spotty, I had this problem at first too.
I went to my makeup artist friend and she showed me how to fix it. You must use a quality brush for this to go on properly, especially since it isn't just power foundation that is close to your skin tone, this is a darker accent.
Check out your nearest makeup store and get a good brush. I use an angled goat hair one when I want to contour. I have a larger power rush when I want that overall tan look.
Also make sure your base makeup or foundation is applied properly and evenly and that you are moisterized. This may be were the spots are coming from.
As many have said here...DUST IT LIGHTLY and go little by little so you can build it into the perfect shade for you.
Primer might help too, preferably a light water based one so it isn't heavy..again apply uniformly to avoid dark spots.
Great bronzer..hard to find a non shimmery/sparkly one like this!

Lovely bronzer! For reference, I'm about an NC30.
During the winter, when I was closer to NC25, I was using NYC Sunny bronzer. When I got a little more color, I wanted something with a little more color, but still matte. I love this bronzer because it never looks orangey and it can be used for all-over color or as a contour. I apply this with the Sonia Kashuk powder brush for the former, using the E3 method, and with the MAC 109 to contour. It hasn't broken me out. Would definitely repurchase!

I was on a bronzer binge this summer and suprisingly this one beat out the rest. I wasn't even looking for a matte formula but I decided to give this one a try. For reference I'm an NC 43. Its not too orange or too brown, not only is it the perfect bronzer its great for contouring as well. HG status!

I'm an NW25 and I used this bronzer as an all over face powder on top of my studio fix powder. I use the 134 brush with a light hand all over my face and it gives me the perfect bronze look. It's completely matte so I can top it off with Orgasm without looking too shimmery.

Review of Two Significant Categories of Real Estate -Related Accounting Errors. The Special Independent Committee also has concluded its fact finding on:
-- the accounting for the effect of certain Sunrise guarantees and
commitments on timing of sale accounting and recognition of income upon
sale of real estate; and
-- the accounting for allocation of profits and losses in those ventures
in which Sunrise's partners received a preference on cash flow.
Errors in the first category resulted from erroneous judgments made by the Company regarding the proper application of GAAP to account for sales of real estate where Sunrise had continuing involvement in the real estate in the form of guarantees and preferences to partners. The nature of certain guarantees and their duration and the recognition of the sales and/or income from the sales of the property were not concealed from review by the external auditors at the time the accounting judgments were made. Based on the totality of the evidence available to the Special Independent Committee, the Special Independent Committee concluded that this large group of errors did not result from an intention to reach an inappropriate accounting result and that the erroneous accounting judgments in this category were not known to be incorrect at the time they were made.
Errors in the second category resulted from failure by the Company to
understand relevant accounting guidance regarding accounting for
preferences in distributions of income to joint venture partners. The
preferences were contained in wri

I'm happy with this cleanser!

Comments about Cucumbers Gentle Milk Cleanser, 6 oz:
I started using this last month to wash my face every morning. My skin feels soft and clean and not at all tight or irritated, as some other cleansers have done. Between this and the Yes to Carrots moisturizer/sunscreen, I do see a positive difference in my skin for having used these products. I can't speak to how well this product removes makeup, since I don't wear it, but I've found it to be tough on dirt, and has kept my skin from becoming totally dried out even in dramatically fluctuating weather.
I recommend!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Armenian Scientists Visit Lancaster's Experts in Secure Communications
Last week three Scientists from the Armenian Academy of Sciences visited the School of Computing and Communications to learn about our expertise and experience in ICT, particularly in the area of secure communications.
The visit was organized by the National Academy of Sciences, of which the School's Professor Garik Markarian is a Fellow.
The group of scientists also attended a joint seminar with Lancaster's Physics Department, dedicated to quantum cryptography, a quickly developing discipline of Physics which is of increasing importance in the current technological age when broadcasting network communications which may transmit sensitive information related to finances, politics, business and private confidential matters.
A presentation from one of the visitors Anahit Gogyan, Scientific Secretary of the Institute for Physical Research of the National Academy of Sciences of Armenia, attracted great interest from Lancaster's Dr Robert Young and his PhD students from the Physics department who research in the area of Quantum Cryptography. After the talk Dr. Young presented their facilities and latest work.
Prof. Garik Markarian said,
"Visits such as these are a great way to strengthen Lancaster's relationships with international researchers. The visit also brought the opportunity to discuss numerous joint funding possibilities in the area of secure communications and it has been agreed to submit a joint proposal for the EU HORIZON 2020 programme. Lancaster researchers have also been invited by the visitors to attend the International Symposium they are organizing around this subject."

Gol is confident its proposed acquisition of fellow Brazilian low-cost carrier Webjet will be easier in terms of integration than its previous purchase of Varig successor VRG, and it expects to enjoy annual synergies of 100 million reais ($63.7 million) within two years.
The Webjet acquisition was announced on 8 July as part of Gol's strategy to strengthen its position in Brazil's fast-growing domestic market.
The sale price is 96 million reais, with Gol assuming 215 million reais of Webjet's debt and gaining the roughly 56 million reais in cash Webjet had on its balance sheet in 2010.
Gol chief executive Constantino de Oliveira Júnior described Gol's 2007 acquisition of VRG as "very complex" because the carrier was sold under the bankruptcy process. However, he is more optimistic about the integration of Gol with Webjet.
"Webjet is performing much better in operational terms than VRG when we bought the company," he said.
"Webjet has a motivated labour force. VRG employees were not receiving their salaries - the environment was really tough at that time."
The fact Webjet is a low-cost carrier means that "in my opinion it will be easier to integrate both companies", he added.
Gol expects 60% of the expected synergies from the Webjet acquisition to come from aligning corporate functions.
The remaining 40% will be derived from introducing phased maintenance on all aircraft, optimising spare parts stock for the CFM engines powering both carriers' fleets, and a higher utilisation of Gol's maintenance centre in Belo Horizonte. Webjet outsources its heavy maintenance.
Gol chief financial officer Leonardo Porciúncula Gomes Pereira said the synergies should start about two years after the acquisition is complete, and stated that Gol is also planning to gradually phase out Webjet's 24 Boeing 737-300s as their leases expire.
Gol operates a fleet of 96 Boeing 737-700/800 aircraft with a further 101 on order, as listed by Flightglobal's ACAS database.
The carrier has assured there will be less expense involved in returning Webjet's aircraft than there was when Gol returned 27 737-300s operated by VRG, as many of Webjet's lessors are "important lessors of Gol".
De Oliveira Júnior stressed it is "really tough to predict" how long the process of gaining approval from Brazil's competition regulator CADE will take, but he is confident the deal will be approved.
"In this case it is two companies operating under the same concept," he said, adding that the combined company "expects to maintain very competitive fares and stimulate the market".
If the acquisition goes ahead, Gol will become the domestic market leader in Brazil in terms of passengers carried.
Gol and Webjet carried roughly 32.8 million domestic passengers in 2010 combined, surpassing TAM's 29.2 million.
