Billion Dollar Brows Customer Reviews
It works! - 7/17/2014 9:00:33 AM I have been using this product since the beginning of June. I noticed a difference right away. It has now been almost two months. I took weekly photos and when I look back I can tell a huge difference. I have been tweezing my brows since I was 13 or 14. I am now 30. I have tweezed them into all sorts of different shapes and sizes throughout the years. I of course fell victim to the 90's trend of having pencil thin overly tweezed eyebrows. I look back at my old pictures of my youth when I had beautiful, thick and symetrical brows wishing somebody would've warned me. ;) This product does not sting, flake or even have a scent which I like. The only thing I don't love about this product is the packaging. The doe tip applicator is nice but then it's incredibly difficult to reach the last bits of this product and there is honestly a lot of wasted product left. I will probably end up breaking it apart so I can salvage the last bits. :) I will continue to purchase this product as I feel like it totally works. I am well on my way to fuller thicker more symetrical brows like I had in my youth. There's still a ways to go as I have some bald patches to fill in but I have faith that this product will help with that. The only thing I am worried about is that you have to continue using the product or else your brows will revert back to where they were. The company claims this will not happen but I am still a little weary of that. I love Billion Dollar Brows! I want to try their Universal eye pencil next.By far the best! Don't bother with the others... - 6/19/2014 9:01:30 AM This is the best I've ever used! Forget Anastasia and all the other brands sold at Sephora and the department stores. This product makes filling in your eyebrows ridiculously simple. Not even the professional makeovers I've had done have ever made my eyebrows look so perfect and full. It doesn't have to be so complicated. It's so easy and my eyebrows look naturally perfect! This is the second I've purchased. And their eyebrow brush makes all the difference as well!Excellent - 3/29/2014 1:04:18 PM I used to use something like this years ago and then they discontinued it. This one is wonderful and a good replacement. I use the brush that comes with it sometimes to apply and also use a separate fine brush. Either way, it goes on beautifully and the color is perfect! I even sleep with it on sometimes and it looks perfect when I wake up.Disappointed - 5/1/2013 7:54:27 AM The first time I purchased this product, it was wonderful. My hair color is brunette and the product color matched perfectly. I actually used the entire product, whch is a first for me. I reordered this item and was very disappointed to find that it was entirely different. I even double-checked to see if I ordered something else entirely. The color was too dark and the product was oilly and didn't apply as easily. This product can be wonderful, but it can also be a total disaster. Very inconsistent.The Perfect Brow Pencil - 3/29/2013 8:49:38 AM Being a bottle brunette with naturally light eyebrows, I was always on the search for the perfect eyebrow pencil. I found it in Billion Dollar Brows. Its formula allows you to balance blending and density of product to create the perfect shade, which I like because it creates great day or night looks. The product's density is thick enough to provide control and hold, and the brush's bristles are slightly more rigid to ensure every hair is perfectly placed. I always keep a backup in my beauty supplies because I don't want to go a day without it.It works! - 1/2/2013 9:26:40 PM Like most women, I have purchased many products over the years to fix various beauty problems. Some have worked, most haven't. Billion Dollar Brows has restored my faith. I've gone from increasingly sparse eyebrows to ones that have filled in considerably. No, they don't look like they did when I was 40 but if they look this good after 6 weeks of faithful use of BDB, who knows what will be.Awesome product - 12/29/2012 9:26:40 AM This is the best brow pencil I have ever used! Blends great with my eyebrow color!PERFECT BROW RESCUE - 11/6/2012 11:52:16 AM I 'HAD' whimpy brows that had greyed out a bit - I needed help. They are now simply beautiful. Formed perfectly - the gel holds them in place. I am fair so the colour works well, a bit richer but enhances and looks natural. Easy to apply - I am not a pro and I manage to apply it well 90% of the time.Best ever for brows - 9/15/2012 12:55:56 PM I have blonde, very thin brows. All others, and I've used very expensive brow fillers, are too heavy on my fair skin with blonde hair - this pencil is perfect. I will use nothing else!not impressed - 9/8/2012 8:03:34 AM I read the reviews and decided to try it myself. My eyebrows have thinned and I thought this might help. I wasn't expecting any miracles but this has not done anything. I have been using it every nite for 2 weeks and have not seen any improvement. It goes on like a gel but it never feels like there is enough on. I would not recommend this. -

Shogun Frame Sliders Honda CBR 600 RR
Shogun sliders are superior to other slider brands by virtue of their construction and material--shatter-proof UHMW infused with UV protective polymer. Shogun sliders absorb kinetic energy from crashes and will not shatter in cold temperature like some types of Delrin or fade in the sun. Each slider has a press fit aluminum bushing (excluding bar ends) to hold it in place during impact to reduce the risk of the slider puck or spool tearing off of the mounting point. Shogun frame slider offsets are CNC machined from the same grade aluminum as military aircraft. Offsets are anodized black to match OEM components. Each offset is manufactured to stringent specifications with ISO 9000 quality control.
Each Shogun Frame Slider comes with high tensile strength corrosion resistant hardware (cheap imitators do not use high grade hardware and will quickly rust). Shogun uses socket head bolts in nearly every kit, allowing for stronger frame slider design in a more compact space. Newer applications of Shogun Frame Sliders make use of a counter sunk design, which distributes the force of impact over a wider area and gives additional strength to the system so that the puck remains attached to the motorcycle.
Designed by racers, sold by racers, for the serious rider!

My husband died tragically and suddenly this summer. A few days after his death, my 5 year old daughter saw a commercial for this product and said "mommy , I want that, it's a daddy pillow" I proceeded to order 3- one for her, one for my 4 year old son , and one for myself. They have brought great comfort to me and my children during this horrible time. We dress them up in daddys shirts and we just tuck the extra sleeve into the arm. WE will be travelling with them soon. It was a great buy. recommend for anyone who lost someone or misses someone at night, not just a boyfriend.
I bought this pillow to keep my company on nights when my husband, a correspondent for the Trans-Alaskan News Network, was out of town. The pillow exceeded even my wildest expectations. I'm told the pillow was modeled after Brad Pitt, and I believe it! When I first nestled against the soft, but firm chest of my new "husband" I slept better than I ever had before. Now I don't mind when my husband goes out of town!
best $$$ ever spent. My Dream Man is the best! He always lets me pick what we watch on TV, he supports me while studying, he helps me sleep, he never gets jealous, he doesn't care what I look like, he is there for me when I laugh or cry, I don't have to worry about texting him, he has everything he's ever imagined, he takes my abuse, he is the one I can count on to wrap his arm around me... I have recommended this pillow to all my single friends. If husbands are being deployed...great gift idea! -can wash his shirt with the rest of the laundry -only downfall is Dream Man ripped his bicep in the seem...I guess I got to rough with him in bed ;)
I've slept on this pillow every night since I got it. I bought it to give my husband the "cold shoulder" for some long forgotten misdeed. However, was I surprised to find that this is the most comfortable pillow I've ever owned. I suffer from migraine headaches and have always had to arrange numerous pillows in an ever changing configuration to get a good, headache free sleep. However this pillow supports my head and neck perfectly with just the right amount of support. Now I just use this pillow and sleep well throughout the night. My only complaint is the lack of availabilty of replacement shirt pillow cases for when the original case is being washed. Of course regular pillow cases don't fit the pillow so I have to improvise (unsatisfactorily) with two pillow cases or immediately wash and replace my lone shirt case. The only other solution is to buy another pillow which is what I'm going to do.
I bought this for myself just because it was so funny. I leave "him" on my couch. Everyone who see's "him" is like....what the heck is that?????? SO FUNNY.
Sent it to a sick friend they loved it!
Bought them for Christmas gifts. They loved them.......
Bought these as gag gifts for a couple of my single female friends and they actually use them!
I love this pillow its really great to have ! I would recommend to others. shipping was pretty fast
Cute gag gift for my mother! Not very high quality fabric but my one year old thinks its soft enough to cuddle with!

The number one feature of this product is its material: solid hardwood construction, with a hefty weight. This is well built, especially at the price. The design is elegantly simple, if the craftsmanship itself is a little less than that. There was some small issue with the headboard alignment, but nothing that resulted in net dissatisfaction. It sets up and sits as presented in the pictures. Overall, happy with the purchase and very pleased, surprisingly so, with the customer service at Overstock.com, which I found to be competent and punctual.
The bed is a beautiful solid wood bed. It is big 84" and heavy. Perfect contemporary style. We use only a mattress right on the frame slats. It is a little tight to make the bed when tucking in sheets but if the mattress on a box spring it wouldn't be a problem. Since we like the low platform look we overlook the inconvenience. It arrived quickly but with a small ding on the headboard but OS was great about sending out a correction pen and even crediting me $XX for the inconvenience. Love it!
Beautiful piece of furniture. Extremely heavy and delivery service only delivers to threshold/front door, so be prepared to have help get it up to your bedroom. It takes at least two people to assemble. We're very happy with our purchase.
This bed is exactly what I was looking for. It's contemporary but classy. Great product!
This bed is a wonderful investment. It is made of fantastic quality wood. It is very sturdy and its design lines are elegant and soft, the perfect combination of classic and contemporary. It takes two people to put together due to the weight and big size, but it is really simple.
Huge beautiful piece of furniture! Love Love it! I mixed it with other furniture and the color matches well with other pieces. Very happy with our purchase!
The first shipment came with wrong side rails, I contacted overstock 4 times, and it took another week to get the correct part shipped.. However, noboby removed the wrong parts for me.. now it is still in my second floor living room.. It's another headache for me to dispo them... The quality of the product looks solid however with a lot of small problems!!! loose screws found here and there, some are totally not working.. I end up using 1 of my own screw with small piece of wood plug to fix it!! Otherwise you can't even assemble it~ thanks that my father was helping me on this, otherwise I would probably need to contact Overstock to return the whole frame! A lot of defects I believe come from careless shipment... I bought some other stuff from overstock and they look good, however I guess I would not spend over $500 for online furniture in the future...
Bed is exactly as advertised. Showed up in a timely matter and is the exact color we were looking for. Very heavy built bed and good craftsmanship!
Solid bed. Very heavy. Good quality. Good support. Love the whole set.
The left rail corner of the bed made out of wood snapped. This rail should be in metal to hold the bed base, but in this case it is wood. Sitting on the corner snapped the wood, which means it is poor quality.

Employing what he's labeled "hard funny," Christopher Titus has released three ninety-minute albums in as many years. That's 270 minutes of material when most comics do the same act for years. He has three one-hour comedy specials currently running on Comedy Central. After years of experimentation with dark and personal storytelling, he debuted his one-man show "Norman Rockwell is Bleeding" at the Hudson Theater in Los Angeles. It was from this performance that the dark comedy, "Titus," was born on Fox. The show earned Titus a Writer's Guild nomination as well as an Emmy nomination, and Newsday called him "TV's most original voice since Seinfeld."
His second show, "The Fifth Annual End of the World Tour," was released in 2007 to rave reviews. Titus tackled such difficult issues as the Iraq war, racism, pedophilia and even his father's unconventional and ridiculous funeral, where he, with his brother and sister's help, spread his father's ashes in a casino. These are issues most comedians would run from, but Titus never walks into the familiar.
Titus' newest one-man show, "Love Is Evol," deconstructs relationships in a way no comic has ever attempted. Titus wades into domestic violence, plastic surgery, custody and all aspects of the nightmare relationships that made him question the existence of God. Then, his new girlfriend helped him reconfirm it. This groundbreaking comedy special premiered on Comedy Central on Valentine's Day. Titus claims that "this show will either fix your relationship or destroy it, and either way, you're welcome. If my comedy ends your relationship, then it needed to end."
Titus shone in 2007 as the lovable character, Brody, in ABC's "Big Shots." He shared the screen with Dylan McDermott, Michael Vartan and Joshua Molina as a successful CEO who had total control in business, and no control in his relationship.
Inspired by such greats as Woody Allen, Steve Martin, and Cosby, who wrote, directed, produced and performed, Titus has sold ideas to NBC, ABC, FOX and Comedy Central. His pilot "Special Unit" which is about four disabled detectives, is edgy and laugh-out-loud funny. His script "Five Seconds" has been optioned by High Road Entertainment.
After watching Christopher Titus perform live, there is no doubt that he is one of the best comics working today. With the complete package of comedy, acting and writing, there hasn't been someone like him in a long time.

Cards after Central flag as Zimmermann seeks 20th
St. Louis' magic number is three; Nats righty looking for milestone 'W'
If there was any doubt as to how hard the Cardinals were going to play in the final week of the regular season, with a playoff spot locked up and a good grip on the National League Central, Michael Wacha put his foot on the pedal and never let up on Tuesday night.
Wacha held the Nationals hitless through 26 outs, but Ryan Zimmerman had an infield single with two outs in the ninth to break up the no-hitter as the Cardinals won, 2-0.
Next up in the Cardinals' rotation: Shelby Miller.
The Cardinals strategically and carefully carved out Miller's usage this season, holding the 22-year-old to 167 1/3 innings over 30 starts (less than six innings per start). Miller pitched 104 1/3 innings in 2010, 139 2/3 innings in 2011 and 150 1/3 innings in 2012. He could push 200 if the Cardinals advance through the playoffs.
But the Cardinals aren't letting up in any way as they enter their 159th regular-season game, on Wednesday against the Nationals. They're still two games in front of the Pirates in the NL Central and a half-game behind the Braves for best record in the NL. They would need to win that race with the Braves outright to claim home-field advantage, since the Braves won the season series, thus owning the tiebreaker edge.
"That's huge for a short series like the playoffs -- being able to start at home," outfielder Carlos Beltran said. "We're looking forward to finishing the season with the best record. That's something that we're shooting for."
A year ago, the Cardinals were fighting just to get into the playoffs.
"A fight's a fight," said manager Mike Matheny. "It feels like we're in a fight. We show up here every day excited and anxious. Can't wait to get out here and watch our guys do their thing and watch it play out. But it's very similar to last year. We just feel like we've got something to prove every night."
The Nationals will get one last chance to watch Jordan Zimmermann take the mound in what's been a fantastic season for the 27-year-old. At 19-8, Zimmermann has a chance to become the National League's first 20-game winner and join Max Scherzer as the only 20-game winners in the Majors this season. No other pitcher had 19 wins as of Tuesday.
Last season, Gio Gonzalez, R.A. Dickey, Jered Weaver and David Price were the only 20-game winners.
The Nationals have already been mathematically eliminated from postseason contention and plan to start some of their bench players in the season's final series. But manager Davey Johnson, who will retire at season's end, rolled out his full-strength starting lineup in Tuesday's game. It still wasn't enough.
The Nats have struggled to score runs all year, but their offense had started to come alive before getting shut out by Wacha and Trevor Rosenthal. As of Tuesday, they were tied for third in the Majors with 114 runs in September.
Cardinals: Holliday dealing with sore back
The Cardinals are getting used to making playoff runs without Matt Holliday at full capacity. He was limited due to a hand injury when the Cards won the World Series in 2011 and resorted to pinch-hitting duty until the fifth game of the NLDS against the Phillies.
Now Holliday is dealing with back soreness. He was a late scratch Sunday and Monday, and was again held out of Tuesday's lineup.
"I just think it tightens up every once in a while," Matheny said. "I think people with bad backs understand it just happens. It comes and goes. Hopefully, one more day, maybe tomorrow and the off-day. We'll see. [We] just have to follow along, see how it feels."
Nationals: Werth playing big
Jayson Werth is having his best season since Washington signed the outfielder to a seven-year, $126 million contract before the 2011 season.
As of Tuesday, Werth ranks among the NL's top five in OPS (.930), slugging percentage (.532), batting average (.318) and on-base percentage (.397). Since July 1, Werth is hitting .351 with 16 homers and a 1.034 OPS.
Worth noting
• Injured first baseman Allen Craig was away from the team Tuesday for personal reasons, Matheny said. Craig is back home in California, but is expected to return to St. Louis by Thursday when he is scheduled for X-rays and a re-evaluation of his sprained left foot.
• The Nationals have lost their last six games against the Cardinals and hold a 23-33 record against them since the club began playing in D.C. in 2005.

Sequestration treadmill picking up steam across DoD
Thursday - 2/28/2013, 7:27am EST
Jared Serbu, DoD reporter, Federal News Radio
Barring an 11th-hour budget agreement that's eluded the legislative and executive branches for nearly a year-and-a-half, sequestration officially will take place Friday, and the military departments will take additional steps to cut back on spending to try to cope with a sudden slice to each of their programs.
But while the punitive spending cutbacks, which were never supposed to happen, will occur immediately and automatically on paper, their impacts to the Defense Department will not be obvious to the public or to lawmakers for weeks or months, long after even the next in a series of pre-arranged budget crises: the expiration of the short-term continuing resolution which funds the federal government through Mar. 27.
"It's not going to be a big, explosive event on the first of March," said Maj. Gen. Karen Dyson, the director of the Army's budget office. "It's more like getting on a treadmill that continues to pick up steam. We've been on that treadmill since December when we started planning for this."
When the Office of Management and Budget issues its sequestration order to federal agencies, the military will begin to take additional actions to conserve cash for the rest of the year, particularly in its operation and maintenance accounts. The steps include preparation for wide-ranging civilian furloughs, more curtailment of military training and a close examination of contracts for possible terminations or modifications.
But for most of those steps, the impacts will show up this spring and summer as lagging indicators of steps the military already will have taken.
"It's going to really start to impact most widely by April," Dyson said. "That's when we're looking at the furlough of our civilian workforce, which we very much don't want to happen. But by about Memorial Day, you'll see that workforce furloughed, and we'll have a pretty good sense of which training cannot happen for soldiers."
Huge cuts to O&M accounts expected
Training and civilian salaries are just two of the areas covered by the Army's operation and maintenance (O&M) accounts. Those funding lines are particularly vulnerable to damage by sequestration, because the dollars are spent in the same year they're appropriated, unlike large weapons programs that can continue to carry on if they were funded with contracts from prior years.
Because of a perfect storm of budget pressure on those O&M funding lines in 2013, including sequestration, a stopgap budget that was copied and pasted by Congress from the year before and now is mismatched with real-time needs, and unexpected costs in Afghanistan, the Army will have $18 billion less in O&M budget authority by the end of this year than it expected when 2013 started in October.
The service intends to protect the war effort in Afghanistan from cuts and will endeavor to do the same with wounded warrior programs and its most critical family and soldier programs, officials said. That leaves only about half the O&M budget open for the reductions that sequestration and a full-year continuing resolution would require.
"So when you hear that sequestration impacts everyone evenly across the budget, that's not true when it comes to our operation and maintenance account," Dyson said. "The compounding effect of this is really about 52 percent against our unprotected amounts for operation and maintenance. And that's if we spread it across the entire year. But we're going to be starting this on Friday, which means we only have seven months left to execute that reduction, and we only have $20 billion left in our unprotected accounts. So now we're taking an $18 billion reduction against $20 billion. This is why this is a devastating environment to operate within."
With only $1 billion-to-$2 billion O&M dollars to spread around for the remainder of the year, the Army will start making additional cutbacks when it gets the sequestration order.
Most training, repairs on chopping block
For example, the Army will cut back training for approximately 78 percent of all soldiers, and only the next group set to depart for Afghanistan will have their training fully funded.
Additionally, the service will cut funding for domestic military facilities immediately by 30 percent for the remainder of the year, said Brig. Gen. Curt Rauhut, the director of resource management for the Army's Installation Management Command, which manages stateside bases. He said the Army doesn't believe it will be able to fully pay for even the most critical safety of life programs on installations, and it will be able to support only 37 percent of the facility sustainment and repairs needed.

Pretty sure this just the gamecode he did compile (like the one that is included in Valve's HL2 SDKs). The renderer code isn't available to the public anyway.
But does it mean there is a GMod Linux Client ? If so, does it mean that something is coming ?
Or is it a server code ? But i can't find any server on gmod webpage So ? Linux client ?
Or maybe he's pulling Michael's chain
pfff, I call that bullshit. That guy (Garry) only compiled some server things or whatever. _If_ the source engine will come to linux, it'll be because/with Postal 3, if they don't distribute a linux client, there'll _never_ be a source version for linux that is capable of running CS:S or other games based on it. It'll always be the server version that is running on linux.
As for Steam...the day bug #1 on launchpad is fixed, there'll be a steam version for linux. Not one nanosecond before that.
Yes, found it :*this is completely bullshit. This is a dedicated server :
That's it.
the wording does indeed suggest a Linux gamer client.
Thing is, Valve isn't exactly blind. Unlike other publishers / developers, Valve is smart enough to see opportunities for growth. Unlike many other publishers / developers in the PC market these days, Valve started back during a time when video gaming was dominated by game consoles from Sega, Nintendo, and Atari. Valve was in that first group of developers, along with IDSoftware, IonStorm, and Epic Megagames that pushed Windows gaming into a true competitor to console gaming. Valve was the first developer to really see value in a long-tail economic sales model delivered through a digital download service.
I don't think Gabe Newell, or any of the older Valve staff, have really forgotten those days of putting out games into a tiny marketshare... and then forcing that marketshare to grow. Too many other publishers these days (EA, Activision, Take2) expect a platform base to have a huge marketshare first before releasing, or even developing, games for that platform base. Case in point, no developer outside of Ubisoft had any serious plans for Nintendo Wii. The sales success of the Nintendo Wii saw publishers and developers scrambling to support the platform, with extremely limited success since there had been no resources dedicated to that platform and all of the major development teams had already been trained for PS3 / Xbox 360.
I think Valve is looking at stuff like Minecraft, HumbleBundle, and the vibrant user-communities surrounding games like WarSow and Cube2 / Red Eclipse / Assault Cube, and wants to have a piece of those pies. My opinion is that Valve sees growth opportunity in "desktop Linux". I don't think Valve is looking at Desktop Linux, or Embedded Linux (Android / WebOS), as an immediate multi-million sales bonanza. I think Valve sees it as a marketshare that they can get in on, and then force to grow.
I still love how Phoronix are holding onto their announcement that "STEAM FOR LINUX: CONFIRMED"
Newsflash phoronix... its comming upto a year since you made that announcement. That aint a fucking announcement of something that is confirmed
Phoronix really need to sort out their journalism, if they can't even admit they jumped the gun on announcing STEAM for LINUX there really is no hope for them
just own up simple as that. Maybe you do know something, maybe it is coming BUT to hold onto the "see see its confirmed" a year later is just fucking pathetic, that is an educated speculation NOT an fucking announcement
With PostalIII linux client put into speculation the existance of SOURCE (Let alone STEAM) or linux is brought into speculation YET Phoronix hold onto some cravat they made a year ago.. THAT ISN'T A FUCKING ANNOUNCEMENT, NOT EVEN CLOSE TO A CONFIRMED ANNOUNCEMENT if
#1 valve say no
#2 nothing has changed
Is there something lacking in Phoronix journalist education or something? is there some secret definition of confirmed that I am missing
Phoronix (and others) may have been told by Valve insider that STEAM (note steam not source) is coming to linux. To then go and spread headlines CONFIRMED when at best its informed from a reliable source is just pathetic.
To then hold onto that statement coming upto a year later is just retarded.
Retract that headline, change it in someway because it isn't confirmed. For it to be confirmed there must be some independent citation while the ONLY citation out there is from valve a month later say they are not working on a linux STEAM client (existance of alpha binaries or not)
Hey Michael,
I'll stay out of the political discussion about the source engine. ;-)
But independant of the reason for a session, be sure to announce a LAN in a Munich Biergarten early and prominently enough on the website! I'll sure try to attend

I use cheating devices, I breed to perfection, and I see Pokémon as useless if they have the wrong nature. Guess what? I still love Pokémon, especially the ones I capture, hack, breed, and/or train myself. All the extra codes and effort contribute to my affection for them. If you disagree, I love debate.
I got White 2 in Japan about a month ago and my Japanese isn't that good right now so I failed the first fesmission and now I am unable to do anymore. How can I do fesmissions again?
If you get one shiny baby Dragon from one exclusive area facility, can you use the Key feature to get the other facility and get the other shiny Baby Dragon?
To give a rephrasing, if I got the Gible from Black Skyscraper, can I use the key feature and get Dratini from White Tree Hollow?

The Japanese Pikachu/Groudon/Kyogre train event lacks the shiny lock.
The Japanese Kanto Promotional Stickers event also lacks the shiny lock, as they came as an egg.
unfortunately, no you can't.
This is because the "trigger" for the shiny dragon is that you have to beat Benga. If you swap the area, the facility's boss isn't Benga, but a Veteran instead.
And beating the Veteran isn't the same as beating Benga.
Removed, no. Replaced, yes.
My shinies are not for trade or cloning.
Shinies are not listed in order, for example the last shiny on the banner is not always the latest shiny I've obtained.

It says you can find N's pokemon in Pinwheel Forrest but at level 13 when the rest of the pokes in that area are lvl 55? Is that correct?
I know this is a thread about the actual gameplay, so redirect me if this is the wrong place, but for some reason I can't connect to any wifi components of the game (GTS, Mystery Gift, etc.)! I am using a 3DS so WEP/WPA/WPA2 doesn't matter, and during the game my signal is green with all three bars, but when ever I try to connect to WiFi parts of the game it says I can't, can anyone please help? Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
I am trying to complete the Dropped Item Subquest, but after I call Yancy, she disappears from the extranseiver. What's going on?

So on Join Avenue, does a trade with a friend over wifi cause him to visit your avenue? I just got done doing so and he's nowhere to be found.
****KKKKKKKKKKK i didnt know the restarting your game you'd lose your keys
i'm trying to get the complete unova dex and im not sure about one thing
is there a way to get reshiram in the pokedex on black 2 by talking to someone
like the old man on route 7 that shows you the kami trio for your pokedex
3DS Friend Code:
Add me for Friend Safari!Send a PM with your Friend Code to confirm!
Ok, just to confirm, you can't get to Nacrene City before you beat the E4, so before that time, you'll have to trade to get a Tirtouga, right?
Also, I know that isn't exactly the right place, but I figured since I'm already posting I'd give it a shot. I'm trying to decide on my last 2 team members, and was hoping to get an opinion.
So far I know I want to use: Emboar, Bisharp, Carracosta and Scolipede
Debating over which Flyer to use: Golurk or Swoobat
Debating over the 6th pokemon: Stoutland, Eelektross, Beheeyem, Beartic or Druddigon
Alright! Thanks to you and the other poster who mentioned it.
I was trying to get on the GTS on White (1) just now, and had a bit of trouble. I got in and tried to deposit a pokemon, then it kicked me out. Then I attempted to sign back in, but it failed- I tried again and it was ok. The only thing I'd know to do is keep trying.
I'm looking for a Serperior named Serpedera. It'll be at lvl 98 or above. If you happen to have such a pokemon please PM me.

Or was it a book? One of the two
If you have access to Dream World, you could get one out of Sparkling Sea after acquiring 5,000 dream points (which depending on how thorough you are could take ~3-5 days maybe?)
I still can't get to the sixth level of White Treehollow in my English White 2. The first through fifth levels are fine, but I can't access the sixth level (and consequently, the levels after that). :/
Ive just got White 2 Is there a way to transfer Keldeo before I get the C Gear? Can I trade Genesect to white 1 b4 I get the CGear

Hard to accept Electro as the main villain in this. I like that they want to go that way and Jamie Foxx is an interesting choice. I'm interested to see where they go with this.
Sony Pictures has officially released by the synopsis and title to the sequel for Amazing Spider-Man. It seems pretty straight forward. Read it below.
New York, February 5, 2013 – Columbia Pictures announced today that filming has begun on The Amazing Spider-Man™ 2 in New York. The film is the first in the history of the franchise that will be filmed entirely in New York City and New York State.
The sequel to last year's critical and box office hit The Amazing Spider-Man, the film stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Jamie Foxx, Shailene Woodley, Dane DeHaan, Colm Feore, Paul Giamatti, and Sally Field.
In The Amazing Spider-Man 2, for Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield), life is busy – between taking out the bad guys as Spider-Man and spending time with the person he loves, Gwen (Emma Stone), high school graduation can't come quickly enough. Peter hasn't forgotten about the promise he made to Gwen's father to protect her by staying away – but that's a promise he just can't keep. Things will change for Peter when a new villain, Electro (Jamie Foxx), emerges, an old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, and Peter uncovers new clues about his past.
The film is directed by Marc Webb from a screenplay by Alex Kurtzman & Roberto Orci & Jeff Pinkner, with a previous draft by James Vanderbilt, and based on the Marvel Comic Book by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach are the producers.
The film's key behind-the-scenes team includes director of photography Dan Mindel, production designer Mark Friedberg, editors Pietro Scalia and Elliot Graham, and costume designer Deborah L. Scott.
The latest chapter in the Spider-Man story is set for release in 3D on May 2, 2014.

Well i'm sure Electro is the main but as with the end of the first there is someone pulling the strings still. I'm guessing we see a Norman Osbourn cameo at the very end as the puppet master.
Amazing Spider-Man 2? I suppose that okay, but I would've liked maybe "The Specatular Spider-Man" or something to avoid the cliche and generic "2" title.
redhairs they're saving Spectacular for the 2nd reboot and Ultimate for the 3rd ;)
Giamatti just doesn't have the physique I associate with any Spidey villain except maybe Dr Octopus who always seems a bit pudgy. Maybe the Tinkerer
Son of the Amazingly Spectacular Web-slinging Spider-Man: The Ultimate Sequel
Ah for shits sakes, just give the rights back to Marvel. This shit is just a mess. Giamantti as Rhino is just a joke. Rhino in the comics is 7 feet tall. Giamantti is 5'9" WTF? At Hemsworth was close to Thor. Giamantti is not even close. How lame is that? He is great actor but that is not enough to be Rhino.
I can see Foxx as Electro way before Giamantti as Rhino. But I guess that are setting up the Sinister Six. I just wish that they had gotten someone who is huge and itimidating like Conan Stevens. he would have made a great Rhino.
