Sheer Lip Colour is exactly that, a sheer lip color with a glossy finish and marvelous, versatile colors that all have a slight stain.
Laura Mercier At-A-Glance
Strengths: Many fragrance-free products; top-notch water-soluble cleansers; some extraordinary foundation and powder products; great powder blush, cream blush, and powder eyeshadows; a couple impressive mascaras; mostly great shimmer products; praiseworthy makeup brushes.
Weaknesses: Expensive; some of the products with sunscreen lack sufficient UVA-protecting ingredients; jar packaging hinders some of the skincare formulas.
Mercier did a reasonably good job of crafting a skin-care line to complement her formidable collection of makeup (color is definitely Mercier's strong suit). From her above-average cleansers to some intriguing serums, it is clear that the skin care wasn't just an afterthought. Mercier is the only independent makeup artistry line we know of whose skin-care products actually have an impressive array of state-of-the-art ingredients. Of course, not everything is a slam-dunk, but following the reviews below will lead you to some wonderful products, assuming the higher-than-normal prices don't offset your decision to shop this line for your skin-care needs. And it's nice that the line has toned down its claims about emu oil, because it was never that miraculous to begin with - it's just one of many emollient oils that can help dry skin look and feel better.

Laura Mercier Makeup
What sets Mercier's well-organized makeup line apart from the rest is her trademark "flawless face." Mercier believes that perfecting the complexion is the most important step to makeup application, and her line presents some incredible options for doing just that. An added plus is that Mercier's counter staff really have their act together when it comes to makeup application know-how, while the sales pressure is low key. We wish the tester units were more spacious and efficiently labeled, but this isn't an overwhelming line to navigate.
Most of Mercier's foundations are in many ways a step above the rest. Although none of the main foundations offer sun protection, there are formidable options for all skin types, and the pigmentation in each is rich, so a little goes a long way. Other areas where Laura Mercier's makeup really excels are the loose powders, cream blush, mascara, brushes, and shimmer products. It is all too easy and very tempting to put together an entire makeup wardrobe from the Mercier selection, but keep in mind that there are a fair number of standard to lackluster products that simply aren't worth the expense, despite Mercier's considerable makeup artistry expertise.
Mercier's handiwork routinely graces the covers of major fashion magazines, and for the most part her work speaks for itself and epitomizes this line's Flawless Face philosophy. Mercier herself regularly makes special appearances at her counters, and my guess is that sitting in her chair would be an experience to remember!

Body Language
It may seem like the basics, but if your cutie sees ya with your arms crossed and a mean look on your face, he's hardly gonna want to approach you. So unhook those arms from around your body, and stand tall, girl! This pose shows confidence and makes you more approachable. That way, he'll come to you! When you're already talking to him, try to face your feet towards him and lean in slightly. This will subconsciously show your interest. Make sure to see if he's doing the same for you!
Compliment him
We all like to have our egos stroked from time to time, and your crush is no different. You think his cloudy-colored tee makes his blue eyes pop even more? Tell him so! It can be something as simple as, "I like your shirt—it looks really good on you." Not only are you giving him a compliment, but you're also letting him know you notice him and the way he looks. If you know him better, you could compliment something a bit deeper, like his taste in music.
Ask him about HIM
Relationships are all about give and take. If every time you talk the convo revolves around Y-O-U, change that! If he asks you how your weekend was, answer and throw the question back to him. Don't be afraid to show interest by asking him about his likes, dislikes and lifelong dreams. This way he'll see how down-to-earth and trustworthy you are, and that you're not just another face in Bio class.
Talk about the good ol' days
Now that you've chatted him up and found out who he is as a person, it's time to show that you pay attention and consider him important enough to remember. This can be anything from recurring inside jokes, to asking him how he did on that trig test he had the day before. Bringing up your joint past will tighten your bond and give you plenty to talk about.
Crack a few jokes
While you want to be someone your crush can discuss life and deep topics with, you also want to make sure he knows you're not always Ms. Serious. Show off your fun side by gently teasing him and cracking jokes. Making your crush laugh will show him how much of a blast you are to be around, and it'll make him itch for more time to spend with you.
Say hi in the hallway
By communicating outside of your normal chatting grounds, you'll be building the bridge to a more significant relationship. This doesn't just apply to classroom cuties either! The family friend's son who works at grocery store? Don't wait until you see him at the next holiday party, go through his checkout line and ask him what's up. He'll love the surprise of seeing you in an unexpected place, and will admire your confident attitude when you approach him.
Ask him to hang out
This tip may not be for every chica, but we encourage you to step out of your comfort zone and try it out. Maybe he doesn't know you're available, or maybe he's too freaked out to make the first move. Take the pressure off the both of you by asking him to do something fun and casual. Is there a movie you've both been saying you want to see? Ask him if he wants to go together! Does he tease you about your lack of lay-up skills in gym class? Challenge him to some one-on-one over the weekend.
Be yourself
You may be tired of hearing it, but it's definitely one of our biggest tips for snagging a guy. Guys are drawn to real girls, not the ones who pretend to like the same bands and watch the same TV shows. You don't have to be just like him, or just like girls he's dated before. When you let your crush see the real you, he'll be attracted to your unique qualities and your willingness to be yourself. Having different interests gives you something to talk about, and hey, opposites attract!
What do you say (or do) to reel a guy in? What tip will you try first? Blog about it, babes.

By Barbara Floria, Pure Matters
Some of them have household names: garlic, soy, vitamin E. Others are less familiar: feverfew, echinacea, pycnogenol. You can find them lining the shelves of natural food stores, where they promise a wholesome way to boost your memory, ease depression, prevent cancer, lower cholesterol, extend your life, or just plain heal you. They're known as alternative remedies.
In some cases, the feel-good aura is merited, even well-supported by research. But using any herb, vitamin, or natural hormone without knowing what you're getting into -- and without a health care provider's advice -- carries a real risk of damaging your health.
Consider the herb Saint-John's-wort. Although many people have found it helpful in treating depression and anxiety, the herb caused rejection in some heart transplant patients. That's because Saint-John's-wort changes how the body processes many common medications and can make those drugs ineffective.
Other alternative remedies are known to raise or lower blood pressure or thin the blood. This isn't a big deal for some people, but it can be life-threatening for others. Some remedies can cause liver problems or serious cardiovascular effects. Still others contain poisonous contaminants, and some -- such as chaparral and ephedra -- can be fatal in larger doses.
Clearly there's reason to be wary. How can you protect your safety while getting the best out of alternative remedies?
Begin with the basics of good health: Make sure you get daily exercise, eat a healthy diet, and don't smoke. If your lifestyle habits put you at high risk for diabetes or cancer, for example, you won't get much overall benefit from popping a couple of ginkgo pills.
Become well-informed. Learn all you can in advance about a remedy. You can't just go to the Web and plug in "Kava" and necessarily end up at a good, authoritative site. A good starting point is the site of the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine.
Talk with your health care provider before taking an alternative remedy. For instance, ask your provider: "Is there any reason why I should or shouldn't try garlic pills for my high cholesterol?"
Ask your provider for advice on the proper amount to take. Even some antioxidants, such as beta carotene, that were thought to help prevent cancer were later found to raise the risk for it at higher doses in some people.
Look on the label for a seal of approval from organizations such as the U.S. Pharmacopeia.

DarleneFloridaOuchThis tip of the brush gets extremely HOT and I have a large burn on my neck.posted Mar 7, 2008Link to this post
Barb DyerNew YorkHoly Grail Of BrushesI just purchased this brush and I will never use another!!! I have had to straighten my hair after blow drying as it is long and thick and never quite got that "salon" look with just a blow dryer. My stylist recommended this one and she was so right!!! Not only does my hair look beautiful, it cuts my styling time in half. I love it and am a fan for life.posted Jan 16, 2008Link to this post
Satisfied UserPolished Styingive now ordered the spornette brush in a couple of different sizes and i must say that it, coupled w/a quality dryer, has replaced my need to go to the salon for a polished dry. ive struggled for years w/thick asian hair; 40 minutes min to dry and still slightly puffy afterwards. the spornette brushes have eliminated the "puff," and replaced it with a smooth shine. great product. reasonable price.posted Mar 24, 2007Link to this post
Cheryl KennerLos Angeles, CAAmazingif you have fine hair and youre wondering how to make it look fuller well this brush is your answer. ladies throw away your straighteners. all youll need is this brush and some serum and a little time.my hair is super ringlet curly but is fine as well, so its more or less easy to straighten with some time and effort. you just need to blow dry with this big jumbo brush and voila.ive gotten so many compliments since i ditched my straightener and let the brush work solo. just remember you have to go over your hair several times to give body and get out those curls. i highly recommend this jumbo sized brush even though it looks ridiculous at first!posted Oct 17, 2006Link to this post
RachaelCharlotte, NCSatisfactoryPurchased this brush after fed up with Ceramic Tools round brush falling apart. My previous brush lasted six years but just made me angry when the bristles kept falling off. It worked great but I want a brush to last forever! I am still partial to my old Ceramic Tools brush in the way that it styled my hair. The Spornette doesnt grab my hair like I want it to. I am very impressed with the comfort of the handle. I have yet to see a better handle on a round brush than what Spornette puts out there. Overall, excellent comfort and quality craftsmanship. A little disappointed that the brush doesnt grab my hair the way the Ceramic Tools used to. Makes my hair really soft and full of body. The XL size gets the job done in half the amount of time a smaller size would. Recommendedposted Jul 21, 2006Link to this post
RachelFort Dodge, IASpornette Prego Ceramic Styling Brush ReviewOne of the things I have found extremelly difficult is finding the right styling tools for the results I want to achieve in my hairstyle. I cant tell you how many years I have been trying different things. Its been very frustrating at times. I saw these brushes and from what Ive learned in trying different things I knew these brushes had details about them that might make them work well. So I figured Id try it and I absolutly LOVE them!!! Its such a relief to FINALLY find something that works ... Id definetly recommend them to anyone to try. Additional plus is they are very inexpensive!posted Apr 24, 2006Link to this post
CindyCTSpornette Xx Large BrushI love this brush!! This website is the greatest, I got 2 brushes for the price of 1 at where I usually by them. It is so hard to find the XX large size, and you have it! This brush is so easy to style with, and the curls stay after I use the blow dryer. Best brush ever!!!! :)posted Dec 2, 2005Link to this post
CallieNew York CityGood BrushIts a good brush, better than the wooden round brush I had been using. Makes it a bit straighter, not sure if there is faster drying time.posted Nov 14, 2005Link to this post
Happy ShopperPhillyAwesome Brush!I found these brushes browsing on this site. I had seen a similiar brushes at my local hair salon for $40 each! These are way nicer than the $40 one and work very well. They heat up with the heat from the hairdryer and help dry my hair and style it very quickly! I have very thick hair and they work like a charm! The Jumbo size is great for longer and thick hair.posted Jul 19, 2005Link to this post
PhooSF/Bay AreaHeavy Panting Over This BrushBrush-wise, I thought I already had the biggest brush going with my 2" round, but it still didnt seem to be doing the trick. I saw 4-&-5 inchers around, but my hair isnt very long and those sizes seemed excessive. I searched all over for a good half-way point and Folica had it! I nabbed the Spornette Prego 3 1/2" (jumbo) ceramic brush, and together with my Ion blow-drier and touch-ups with my new "Hot Tools" 2" hot iron, my "difficult" hair is much easier to manage, and the style lasts longer as well. Good prices, good products, good (so far) service...Ill be back to Folica!posted Jun 1, 2005Link to this post

hi you told me that it seems you forgot my nickname
nice writing. and some of your points are just scandalous right now.
"lets say heroin, should only be given by doctors."
right now the Doctor can not give away heroin or he can't use this for medicine but he can use the more unhealthy morphine/Opiate to do the SAME! but in fact Heroin is more save and healthy because of less histamine response.
in fact the ill people blow up like balloons and go FAT just because the morphine used as medicine is pseudo-allergic and response histamine and makes inflammation throughout the body. there is no blowup balloon side effect with heroin.
my neighbor is such a victim she gets morphine because of intervertebral disc prolapse pain.
its just a scandal!
hi you told me that it seems you forgot my nickname
decide? LOL
do you decide to become a intervertebral disc prolapse ?
or any other painful illness like cancer?
most consumers of morphia/opiate/heroin just cure there pain with that stuff.
if you decide to use drugs there are similar drugs without any drug-addiction effect like "Kratom" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kratom "Cure for Opiate dependence"
this drug goes into the opiate receptors in the brain without any addiction effect.
Salvia divinorum also activate opioid receptors without any drug-addiction effect. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvia_divinorum
"a potent κ-opioid and D2 receptor agonist.[11][12] Salvia divinorum is generally understood to be of low toxicity (high LD50)[13][14] and low addictive potential[11][15] since it is a κ-opioid agonist."
I test Salvia divinorum by myself it is save and you don't get any long term effects like flashbacks or hallucination its a very save drug.
and its all about the dosage you can use salvia divinorum with very small effect but the people on youtube have fun with the highest concentrate and consumed in the strongest way and then they wonder why they are blown out of the universe.
you also can use it as medicine again pain and headache in very high dosages you also can use it as a save narcotic to make medical surgical operation.
you can also use it for artwork and in lower dosages to reduce one's weight because you burn energie in a movement penetrated and it kills hunger.
it is also a antibiotic and it is wound healing. (in the past they cure pest with all different kind of salvia)
so the usage is a much wither range you had imagined.
Smoking Marijuana Smoking improve the Lung Function.
But Smoking Tobacco does Impair Lung Function!
they now prove the addiction mechanism of alcohol it pushes out Endorphine.
and Endorphine is just the endogenous version of heroin
Drinking Alcohol is the same as consuming Heroin there is nearly no difference except heroin is healthier.
Nothing is better than beer, forget all that other stuff. You're wasting your time.
Everyone drinks more beer, no more problems. 6 pack a day, keeps the doctor away.
Alcohol can kill bacteria too, so its almost like secondary immune system.
With a diet like this, you wont even need food. So you can save yourself a few trips to the grocery store as well. The benefits of alcohol just keep stacking. You can see why alcohol has been a trusted cure-all, for many years. Not to mention its been tested on more than just rats, or some small group of people.
These opiates people claim are better, are adulterated, over-priced copycats that'll just rob you of your mental faculty. Substances other than alcohol are weaker, slower. Inferior in every possible way.
For superior pain relief, choose alcohol. No appointments. No disappointments. No surprises. Just relief.

Hands-free driving? EU set to trial multi-vehicle road trains
Article Summary
Is there anything more monotonous than being stuck in a long line of traffic when you still have miles to go before your reach your destination? Wouldn't it be great if you could relax and let somebody else do all the hard work? Well if all goes well with a European research project, that possibility might just become a reality. The Safe Road Trains for the Environment (SARTRE) project will look at linking a series of vehicles in a road train, controlled by a lead vehicle, with communication occurring via wireless sensors.

I get a chuckle out of hearing the Step 9 1/2 Promises read in newcomer meetings, almost like their an advertisement to the still suffering of
"Join AA... just don't drink, go to plenty of meetings, put a buck in the basket... and all these wonderful things will happen for you... after you've attended a few meetings!"
Then, they read the bottom half of page 83 through 84 of the Big Book.
The promises are real (I've experienced them... and I'm sure that many of you "Into Action 12 Steppers" out there have experienced them too!)... but the poor newcomer doesn't get told "This is what you can expect to experience AFTER you are half-way through making your amends in Step Nine! So... get busy on taking the 12 Steps!"
Not knocking... just some reality show humor.
Sometimes our more adventurous "Step Takers" out there (those who really have taken the 12 Steps... and are continuing to practice them)... somehow, forget all about the Step 10 Promises!
I won't write them all here... I'll leave that for someone else to do... (share the service)... and, for those looking for them, or interested in knowing what they are... they can be found on pages 84-85 of the Big Book.
Imagine that!!!
Check out all that really cool stuff that will happen to those who practice a daily 10th Step!!! And... let's talk about it!

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

Economic opportunity
Markets, whether large or small, keep communities thriving. But conflicts, disasters and a lack of infrastructure can prevent people from conducting the daily transactions on which all growth and progress depend. Around the world, Mercy Corps discovers why commerce is stuck.
In some places, manufacturers need loans to purchase equipment and young people desire job skills. In others, key transportation routes to market must be rebuilt or farmers require better storage to keep their inventory fresh until sold.
Our economic development projects provide financing, equipment, training or technical support. These projects help people find jobs, build their businesses, supply their communities with the goods they need —and improve their lives.

BobNevada City CaHairDark BrownThick or Coarse HairRubber GlovesLooking to buy a box of Black Rubber Gloves. What is the availabilty?posted Apr 30, 2012Link to this post
StardustgirlExcellent Quality, Great Value! Not Just For Coloring Hair.I was seeking disposable gloves primarily to use with my Jilbere spa mitts (their suggestion of using plastic wrap was clumsy, as the wrap tended to develop gaps when it met resistance from the vinyl mitts, causing the hand cream to get inside the mitts).
These are great! I can put on hand cream, put on these vinyl gloves, and still retain dexterity to be able to open the spa mitts and place my hand inside. The cream stays inside the glove, avoiding leakage into the mitt. They're thick enough that I don't worry about tears from my nails. They are easy to put on - I don't have to fight to peel them open.
The price is great. I paid less than $5 for a box of 100 (sale, plus ebates), which is about 1/10 of similar gloves I found in the paint section of the hardware store, and I can also use these when painting, applying haircolor or cutting hot peppers. I tried out a single pair of plastic gloves ($2!) at the same time and there's just no contest. Spend the extra few dollars and get a box of these.posted Dec 15, 2011Link to this post

General Information About Adult Brain Tumors
Incidence and Mortality
Estimated new cases and deaths from brain and other nervous system tumors in the United States in 2015:[1]
- New cases: 22,850.
- Deaths: 15,320.
Brain tumors account for 85% to 90% of all primary central nervous system (CNS) tumors.[2] Available registry data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database for 2007 indicate that the combined incidence of primary invasive CNS tumors in the United States is 6.36 per 100,000 persons per year with an estimated mortality of 4.22 per 100,000 persons per year.[3] Worldwide, approximately 238,000 new cases of brain and other CNS tumors were diagnosed in the year 2008, with an estimated 175,000 deaths.[4] In general, the incidence of primary brain tumors is higher in whites than in blacks, and mortality is higher in males than in females.[2]
Risk Factors
Few definitive observations on environmental or occupational causes of primary CNS tumors have been made.[2] Exposure to vinyl chloride may predispose to the development of glioma. Epstein-Barr virus infection has been implicated in the etiology of primary CNS lymphoma. Transplant recipients and patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome have substantially increased risks for primary CNS lymphoma.[2,5] (Refer to the PDQ summary on Primary CNS Lymphoma Treatment for more information.)
Disease Overview
The glial cell tumors, anaplastic astrocytoma and glioblastoma, account for approximately 38% of primary brain tumors. Since anaplastic astrocytomas represent less than 10% of all CNS gliomas, phase III randomized trials restricted to the anaplastic astrocytomas are not practical. Meningiomas and other mesenchymal tumors account for approximately 27% of primary brain tumors.[2]
Other less-common primary brain tumors include the following in decreasing order of frequency:
- Pituitary tumors.
- Schwannomas.
- CNS lymphomas.
- Oligodendrogliomas.
- Ependymomas.
- Low-grade astrocytomas.
- Medulloblastomas.
Schwannomas, meningiomas, and ependymomas account for up to 79% of primary spinal tumors. Other less common primary spinal tumors include sarcomas, astrocytomas, vascular tumors, and chordomas, in decreasing order of frequency. The familial tumor syndromes (and respective chromosomal abnormalities that are associated with CNS neoplasms) include neurofibromatosis type I (17q11), neurofibromatosis type II (22q12), von Hippel-Lindau disease (3p25-26), tuberous sclerosis (9q34, 16p13), Li-Fraumeni syndrome (17p13), Turcot syndrome type 1 (3p21, 7p22), Turcot syndrome type 2 (5q21), and nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (9q22.3).[6,7]
Clinical Presentation
The clinical presentation of various brain tumors is best appreciated by considering the relationship of signs and symptoms to anatomy.[2] General signs and symptoms include the following:
- Headaches.
- Seizures.
- Visual changes.
- Gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, loss of appetite, and vomiting.
- Changes in personality, mood, mental capacity, and concentration.
Whether primary, metastatic, malignant, or benign, brain tumors must be differentiated from other space-occupying lesions such as abscesses, arteriovenous malformations, and infarction, which can have a similar clinical presentation.[8] Other clinical presentations of brain tumors include focal cerebral syndromes such as seizures.[2] Seizures are a presenting symptom in approximately 20% of patients with supratentorial brain tumors and may antedate the clinical diagnosis by months to years in patients with slow-growing tumors. Among all patients with brain tumors, 70% with primary parenchymal tumors and 40% with metastatic brain tumors develop seizures at some time during the clinical course.[9]
Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have complementary roles in the diagnosis of CNS neoplasms.[8,10] The speed of CT is desirable for evaluating clinically unstable patients. CT is superior for detecting calcification, skull lesions, and hyperacute hemorrhage (bleeding less than 24-hours old) and helps direct differential diagnosis as well as immediate management. MRI has superior soft-tissue resolution. MRI can better detect isodense lesions, tumor enhancement, and associated findings such as edema, all phases of hemorrhagic states (except hyperacute), and infarction. High-quality MRI is the diagnostic study of choice in the evaluation of intramedullary and extramedullary spinal cord lesions.[2] In posttherapy imaging, single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) may be useful in differentiating tumor recurrence from radiation necrosis.[8]
Biopsy confirmation to corroborate the suspected diagnosis of a primary brain tumor is critical, whether before surgery by needle biopsy or at the time of surgical resection, except in cases in which the clinical and radiologic picture clearly point to a benign tumor. Radiologic patterns may be misleading, and a definitive biopsy is needed to rule out other causes of space-occupying lesions, such as metastatic cancer or infection. CT- or MRI-guided stereotactic techniques can be used to place a needle safely and accurately into all but a very few inaccessible locations within the brain.
CNS abnormalities
Specific genetic or chromosomal abnormalities involving deletions of 1p and 19q have been identified for a subset of oligodendroglial tumors, which have a high response rate to chemotherapy.[2,7,11-15] Other CNS tumors are associated with characteristic patterns of altered oncogenes, altered tumor-suppressor genes, and chromosomal abnormalities. Familial tumor syndromes with defined chromosomal abnormalities are associated with gliomas. (Refer to the Classification section of this summary for more information.)
Metastatic Brain Tumors
Brain metastases outnumber primary neoplasms by at least 10 to 1, and they occur in 20% to 40% of cancer patients.[16] Because no national cancer registry documents brain metastases, the exact incidence is unknown, but it has been estimated that 98,000 to 170,000 new cases are diagnosed in the United States each year.[2,8] This number may be increasing because of the capacity of MRI to detect small metastases and because of prolonged survival resulting from improved systemic therapy.[2,16]
Origins of metastatic brain tumors
The most common primary cancers metastasizing to the brain are lung cancer (50%), breast cancer (15%–20%), unknown primary cancer (10%–15%), melanoma (10%), and colon cancer (5%).[2,16] Eighty percent of brain metastases occur in the cerebral hemispheres, 15% occur in the cerebellum, and 5% occur in the brain stem.[2] Metastases to the brain are multiple in more than 70% of cases, but solitary metastases also occur.[16] Brain involvement can occur with cancers of the nasopharyngeal region by direct extension along the cranial nerves or through the foramina at the base of the skull. Dural metastases may constitute as much as 9% of total CNS metastases.
Primary Brain Tumors
A lesion in the brain should not be assumed to be a metastasis just because a patient has had a previous cancer; such an assumption could result in overlooking appropriate treatment of a curable tumor. Primary brain tumors rarely spread to other areas of the body, but they can spread to other parts of the brain and to the spinal axis.
Clinical Features
The diagnosis of brain metastases in cancer patients is based on the following:
- Patient history.
- Neurological examination.
- Diagnostic procedures, including a contrast MRI of the brain.
Patients may describe any of the following:
- Headaches.
- Weakness.
- Seizures.
- Sensory defects.
- Gait problems.
Often, family members or friends may notice the following:
- Lethargy.
- Emotional lability.
- Personality change.
A physical examination may show objective neurological findings or only minor cognitive changes. The presence of multiple lesions and a high predilection of primary tumor metastasis may be sufficient to make the diagnosis of brain metastasis. In the case of a solitary lesion or a questionable relationship to the primary tumor, a brain biopsy (via resection or stereotactic biopsy) may be necessary. CT scans with contrast or MRIs with gadolinium are quite sensitive in diagnosing the presence of metastases. PET scanning and spectroscopic evaluation are new strategies to diagnose cerebral metastases and to differentiate the metastases from other intracranial lesions.[17]

Mikolas confident going into start vs. Cosart, Astros
Texas, Houston to resume in-state rivalry in third series meeting
Miles Mikolas has made one start in a Rangers uniform, and he's hoping to duplicate the first five innings of that outing. The sixth inning he can do without.
After replacing Joe Saunders in the rotation in Baltimore on Wednesday, Mikolas allowed one run in five innings. He went back for the sixth, retired the leadoff hitter, then walked the next two batters. He exited with the Rangers holding a three-run lead, but the Orioles rallied for a 6-4 win.
"I just need to do what I did for five innings in my first start, but do it for six or seven innings," Mikolas said. "I threw a lot of strikes, attacked the zone early and made good pitches when I got behind in the count."
Still, that first start was a confidence boost for a player who began the season as a reliever in Triple-A before being switched to the rotation at the end of May.
"Definitely, especially going into Baltimore with the really good hitters they have in their lineup," Mikolas said. "It feels good to have five solid innings. We had a good game plan, so I need to stick with it and be successful again."
The Rangers are 3-3 against the Astros this season but 42-13 against them since the start of the 2008 season, including a 21-6 mark in Arlington. Meanwhile, the Astros will try to break a seven-game losing streak that ties their season high on Monday as they return to Texas by sending right-hander Jarred Cosart to the mound.
Cosart had won four consecutive starts before getting roughed up Tuesday against Seattle when he allowed six runs on nine hits in 5 2/3 innings. Against the AL West this season, he's 0-5 with a 6.75 ERA in seven starts. In his career, he's 0-6 with a 4.74 ERA in 11 starts against AL West teams, so he's looking for his first career win vs. the AL West.
"It's the best division in baseball," Cosart said. "It's pretty much self-explanatory if you look at the lineups of the top three teams. You're just going out there trying to keep the team in the game. In this division, it's going to be hard to get wins regardless, because the way the pitchers are throwing out there and the hitters they have at the plate. So you do your best to keep you in the game. I had a couple of tough losses going to back to last year, the Texas game and Seattle. It's nature of the beast, and it's by far the toughest division in baseball."
Rangers: Time to win at home
The Rangers will end the season's first half with a seven-game homestand against the Astros and Angels. They would like to use this time in Arlington as a springboard for momentum into the second half.
But they have to start winning there. They have lost eight of 11 and 20 of their last 29 at Globe Life Park and are 18-23 this season. They haven't finished a season under .500 at home since 2008 and were 247-159 in Arlington from 2009-13.
"You always need momentum," manager Ron Washington said. "We should have gotten momentum in Baltimore last week. We should have gotten momentum before we got to Baltimore. And before that. But when we go home, we do need to play."
Astros: Struggling Santana sent down
The Astros sent struggling rookie outfielder Domingo Santana to Triple-A Oklahoma City late Saturday after he went 0-for-13 with 11 strikeouts in four games since being called up last week. The team, needing another arm in its beleaguered bullpen, called up right-hander David Martinez from Oklahoma City to be used in long relief.
Santana, the team's No. 7-ranked prospect, was hitting .304 with 13 homers and 52 RBIs in 84 games for the RedHawks when he was called up Tuesday to replace Dexter Fowler, who was placed on the disabled list.
"It was good to get him here and experience Major League pitching," manager Bo Porter said Sunday. "The struggles in which he went through will help him as he moves forward. I talked to him after the game and told him, 'Hitting in the Minor Leagues, as you found out real quickly, it's different there.'
"Pitchers have the ability to throw four pitches in different counts [in the Major Leagues], and that's why it's so important from a mechanical standpoint to be in a good position to hit from your posture and setup. That will help him moving forward."
Worth noting
• Washington, with the exception of the pitcher, used the same lineup on Saturday and Sunday. That ended a streak of 20 games with 20 different lineups.
Said Washington: "I have been trying to engage everybody."
• Jose Altuve finished Sunday with 122 hits, which leads the Majors, and was leading the AL with a .337 average and 38 steals. The only Astros player to have more hits prior to the All-Star break is Bob Watson with 123 in 1973.
• Saunders, designated for assignment by the Rangers on Wednesday, cleared waivers on Sunday and is now a free agent.

What size laptop do you prefer? (screen size). Is it always the larger the better? asked Nov 11 '10 at 03:37 Guyfromdenmark |
I help develop applications for Windows and I can tell you that all these tiny laptops are becoming a pain especially the ones that can't even support 1024x768. I personally prefer anything 15" or grater. Having said that there is also a point where the laptop becomes to large to be carrying around everyday. So larger is not necessarily better it depends on what you use it for. answered Nov 11 '10 at 05:55 EliteAzza Great answer EliteAzza....but if you wanna use your laptop as a desktop....playing games and so on.....what size do you prefer then?
(Nov 11 '10 at 06:01)
Well I don't have much experience with playing games on laptops, if you can afford it I would go for a 17" but 15" should be adequate.

I like 13 inches because it's perfect when your on the go. But when I'm programming the screen does fell a little bit cramped. So that's why I'm currently trying to buy this. answered Nov 11 '10 at 07:17 FilipinoPower |

Because I use Photoshop quite allot, I need a BIG screen to I have a 30" Cinema Display and on my laptop I have a 15.6" Display with 1366x768 resolution. I would have wished for the res. to be better but it is Ok. If you are just a regular person who just uses the internet and does not Graphic Design or Web Design, then I would probably get a Netbook or even a 13 - 15" laptop. My Laptop and desktop does me very well. I love them both. answered Nov 11 '10 at 16:21 thecomputergeek01 |
Depends... If you're going for a desktop replacement you'd probably want to go with a laptop that has a big screen and that's powerful so that would 'actually' be a desktop replacement. If you're buying a laptop for carrying around a lot you'd want to go with a smaller one. I personally would choose a laptop that I could carry around everywhere, but I don't like netbooks, too small - I'd choose a medium-sized laptop which would also be more powerful than a netbook. I think I wouldn't replace my desktop with a laptop, not worth it. You can't really mod and customize it that much. answered Nov 11 '10 at 17:10 Mihkel |
I feel 15" is perfect in a laptop. I just upgraded from a 13" which was waaay to small. A 17" starts to feel like a desktop. answered Nov 11 '10 at 18:56 Matthew B |

The act of slurping up man yogurt from a condom just like a gogurt, sliding your finger from the bottom to the top till maximum slurpage is achieved.
I was craving some gogurt the other day, but I didn't have any, but I did have a nut waiting to be busted and a rubber, so later that day I was totally gogurting that shit.

When you jack off and then orgasm , you use a rubbing motion on your cock like when you squeeze the rest of the yogurt out from the bottom of the gogurt tube.
I had to get the excess cum out of my cock last night even though it was sore. So Patricia started gogurting it.

This ring is absolutely stunning in person, for the price the quality is outstanding! It shines so beautifully and if you immerse in some really great jewelry cleaner and polish it up even more, its blinding!!!! a rare and beautiful find!!
I bought for my wife and she loves it:) Very nice ring, looks really good,, I highly recommended this product!!!
My wife loves it. She likes how it holds its shine and the diamonds are good quality. Size was true to the order.
Oh my goodness! I have been searching for a wedding band for months, looking at various bigger named stores, but to no avail. I then started perusing through bands on Overstock, but wanted a band with a thicker width and my grandmother spotted this one and just told me to get it! So I did! Can I tell you that when I saw this ring, I quickly, with a few stumbles I might add, ran to a good mirror with proper lighting to see how it looked with my engagement ring. STUNNING!!! Wish I could show you guys a picture! It is so lovely. Sorry this review is so long but I just want you to know how much I love this ring! :)
This is a very beautiful band. It fits well, and it looks stunning.
I wanted another band on the other side of my engagement ring and I fell in love with this ring when I saw it online, so my husband bought it for me. It looks BEAUTIFUL!! Wish I could upload a picture to show it off!
I received my order today 02/04/14, which was very fast service by the way....I love how this ring sparkles on my hand. It's very classy and condsidering the price - looks more expensive than the actual cost.

It's a battle of the big dicks when Chris Cannon and Levi Madison meet in the Backroom. Levi gets down on his knees to swallow Chris' fat 8-inch tool then stands up to shove his monster down Chris' throat. The hot cock-sucking continues until Chris flips over and shows Levi his big bubble-butt. Levi gets his face right in there to rim the perfectly puckered hole which drives Chris wild. Chris wants Levi's huge dick up his ass so Levi bends him over and fucks him hard, jacks off and shoots all over Chris' hot toned body.

I read an interview with FM recently and he says he is currently mainly wearing Geranium Pour Monsieur... Nice...
If you follow FM's product brief, you will notice that his fragrances are not for everyone and that one may like one fragrance but not the other mainly because there is no theme or synopsis for the house in general. The furthest stretch for a house theme is that they revisit classics or use new ingredients to produce a new frag, a best in class type of fragrance you can say.
I think he is in the view of a person having a signiture scent. Which brings to the question, does anyone know what his own signiture scent is?
Also, his collection is starting to lose balance for guys.. Seems like he keeps producing florals and less emphasis on Oudh, incense, tobacco, leather etc. notes we see in many male fragrances from niche houses... Take for example the upcoming launch with Dries.. It is made with a special sandalwood, but made feminine... with jasmine. Not saying that it cannot be a unisex, but once again, we see florals in his composition.
Any views on this?

Well, it's cheaper than therapy... edit: No it's not...
I am sure the Malle house is / will be working on those notes u mentioned - I am already geared up to buy (even blind buy) any tobacco / leather that they may churn out in the future!!!
his signature scent is probably fresco
Guess a custom made one...
I heard he wears Brut or was it Stetson?
I agree that the range is very feminine orientated and not very prolific either -- I've been seeing the same scents for years now.
If you look at the buying public and Fragrance sales, 80% of purchases are made by females, whether for themselves or their boys.
In terms of marketing and sales, and considering that many males eschew fragrance usage, it only makes sense to weight your product offerings towards women.
But with talented Niche perfumers, there are becoming many more lines with fragrances of interest to Men...

I think it is safe to say that he doesn't have a signature scent and if he did I doubt it would be from his own house!
My current top ten:
1. Spice and Wood
2. Tonka Imperiale
3. Dior Homme
4. Pure Malt
5. Oud Wood
6. Ambre Nuit
7. L'air Du Desert Marocain
8. Noir de Noir
9. Apple Brandy
10.Straight to Heaven
I would think this also. He'd probably wear something he's working on and currently most excited about.

I know that, when it comes to designer fragrances, this is very true. More than half of all men's scents are purchased by women, either to wear for themselves or purchased for the men in their lives. But the same isn't true for women's scents. Very few men wear women's scents. Even here on basenotes, I doubt that most men wear women's scents, and when it comes to Joe Public, there's no way the average guy wears women's scents. Heck, at Sephora, some unisex scents aren't even placed in the men's section. Cannabis Santal is listed in some places as unisex and in others as a men's scent, but it's sold in the women's section at my local Sephora, and it probably sells better that way. Women buy most fragrances. 80% sounds about right.
I've always wondered what the numbers look like in terms of niche sales figures. Do women buy the majority of those too? ...even among men's scents? I wonder.
"Follow your nose. It always knows." -- Toucan Sam
Come on, we all know he wear Creed Aventus.
Sorry, couldn't resist.
He rotates between LIDGE, Aventus and Terre d'Hermes. LDO (like, duh, obviously).
...what I mean is, I have no idea. As a sidenote, I think most of his line is perfectly unisex.
Keep in mind, that's all just marketing mumbojumbo. It's a way of telling potential customers "Just because you didn't like one, it doesn't mean another won't please you." It's just marketing.
I find it's really helpful to trust my own nose rather than to trust hype and marketing. I'm not saying Fredric Malle's scents are nothing but hype and marketing. Quite the contrary. I'm saying to trust your own nose. If they're not for you... no worries.

Amazing perfume house. When there are as many masculines than feminines, you can bet something's wrong.
He once said he likes Eau Sauvage.

I'll ask him next time I see him.
Or any perfumer at that! I read that you met with Christopher Chong the man himself!
In Basenotes, or any fragrance community, we probably will not own a scent that people identify us to due to the many scents we are testing/sampling/own. This is different to how perfumers describe fragrances (i.e how one or two fragrances fits one person, their personality, the belief that scents are a part of memory etcetc). Would be interesting to see what they wear themselves (I assume they have the more discerning noses out there themselves).
Lorenzo Villoresi said he wears his own Uomo exclusively. Yann Vasnier used to be pretty excited about his L'Homme de Coeur, and atleast at some point wore only that. As a sidenote, I perfectly understand both. Uomo is fantastic all-around scent and the Divine scent could be my number one scent if it wasn't for certain offnote in the drydown. That beginning with juniper and possibly angelica is somehow cool and dry, with iris bringing just enough depth. Perfect top, compromised drydown. It took me around 20 wearings to spot this flaw in the drydown; too bad I can't put my finger on it (ostension isn't possible when it comes to scents).
Dominique Ropion is a favorite Malle's perfumer.
Once in an interview Malle said that Vetiver extaordinaire defines his personality.
When Ropion created Geranium pour monsieur, Malle, his son and Ropion himself wore mostly Geranium pour monsieur.
