Best (So Far) finds the finest first-round covers of the latest pop hits.
Launched back in February 2008, the New York-based indie band fun. – comprised of Andrew Dost, Jack Antonoff, and Nate Ruess (formerly of The Format) – has been hovering quietly under the mainstream radar for quite some time. It really wasn't until "We Are Young" (featuring R&B singer Janelle Monae) was covered on Glee back in December and featured in a Chevrolet Super Bowl commercial this past February that the three-man band began commanding a lot more attention.

ID is a form Fantasy Fairy Land Belief !
It has NO basis in reality and only has a basis in BELIEF, Hence the NEED for MY definition of the Word Belief:
"The Act of Believing is the Act of Pretending that Pretending is something MORE then Pretending"
This is the mental functioning of CHILDREN !
And Adults that HOLD onto this way of Mental Function ARE retarded because they have REFUSED to allow themselves to become ADULTS !
Giving UP making Believe is the FOREFRONT of entering Adult Mental Function !
And for the Simple minded among us I will break it down for you:
These Folks simply REFUSE to grow Up !

- Miracle Product for Rosacea Review by R.S., Tarpon Springs, FL USA
Price Value Quality I've had problem skin all my life and thought my skin would get better as I got older but it got worse. No matter what the Dermatologist tried from Prescription creams to Chemical peels, nothing helped the breakouts and blackheads for years until I tried Calm, Cool & Corrected. After 8 wks my skin looks toned and clear of blemishes. I am 60 yr. old and no longer embarrased because of my skin and finally feel good about myself because of this miracle product. A little bit goes a long way.
- Joining the praiseful chorus Review by Kelly, Dallas, Texas USA
Price Value Quality I doubted it was even possible to banish the redness, but I was just desperate enough to spend the $85. For a gal who cringes at $35 for Clinique moisturizer, that's a lot of dough. But this was by far the best money I ever spent on my skin! I have self-diagnosed mild rosacea and didn't want the usual treatment of antibiotics (which have their own set of problems for me). With just a few dabs of this product twice daily in my problem areas, I'm virtually redness-free, and my occasional blemishes are reduced by about half. I wear it at night under my regular moisturizer, and during the day under my makeup. I've been using it a month, and it seems the jar is going to last about 3-4 months. Thank you, Dermadoctor. You've gained a customer for life.
- Use This Twice A Day, And You Won't Believe The Results! Review by MR, N. Little Rock, AR
Price Value Quality Sharon Stone recently said that if you apply moisturizer twice a day, you won't believe how your skin will thank you and how much younger you will look. Well, she would know and she was right. This product works wonders once a day, but twice a day in the morning under makeup and at night before bed and you will be amazed how your skin looks and feels. It is fabulous!
- Love at first sight- No BLUSHING! Review by CSSW, Bozeman, MT USA
Price Value Quality My face has been red since I can remember, but with this product, I'm going without makeup to hide the ruddiness! The lotion feels cool on my skin immediately and I can see a clearing of redness within minutes. I LOVE this STUFF!
- Great Product! Review by HB, Loudoun County, Virginia
Price Value Quality I was diagnosed with rosacea (mild but I think more than that) and seborrhea around the mouth area. Since using this product along with the Born to be Mild Medicated Cleanser, my face is much smoother, no harsh redness and the blemishes/blackheads caused by rosacea are almost gone. With hot humid weather and working out, I still get some spots, but not as bad. I've been using it for the past 2 months and hope that all the blemishes go away! I've never had bad skin, I'm 44 and it's just in the past 2 years that I've had problems. The mouth area's redness doesn't even come back with flare-ups. If not for this site and it's products, I'd be lost. My two dermatologists left me lost with just prescriptions creams that stung. Thanks alot!
- Wish I'd known about this product years ago! Review by KJF, Grand Rapids, Mi USA
Price Value Quality This product is worth every penny! After two weeks I notice a little bit of improvement in the redness. After 6-8 weeks my whole complexion looked much better. I'm a user for life! I found advertisement for this product in Health for women magazine. It need to be out there more for others to learn about. Thanks so much!
- The Perfect Acne Cure for me!! Review by J.S., Tampa, FL USA
Price Value Quality I'm 22 and I have had at least 1-2 breakouts a day! I only started this product 2 weeks ago and my face has already cleared up completely. I'm using the Immaculate Correction with it to get rid of the red marks and those have also almost disappeared. I never thought a product could ever be this good!
- WOW!!! Review by NMC, Orlando, Fl
Price Value Quality I have battled rosacea/adult acne for years! After trying numerous prescription topical medications and oral antibiotics, I decided to give this product a try. After 2 weeks, my skin looks and feels so much better! As a pharmacist, I will definitely recommend this product to other rosacea/acne patients.
- Works very well.. Review by Kansas City
Price Value Quality My 16 yr. old son has dry, sensitive skin and developed redness, acne. He used the typical anti-acne items which made it worse. Started putting on a steroid cream (unknown by me) and ended up with steroid-induced rosacea. His face was a mess and he was very embarassed. Spent hundreds of dollars on Rx meds which cleared up the worst of it but he still had probs. This helps keep his skin free of redness. It has also helped with peeling on his fingers/palms (he gets dishydrotic exzema in the winter). Expensive but it works well.
- Impressed Review by Greenville, SC
Price Value Quality I am a 25 y/o male, and I have been dealing with bad skin since high school. I tried everything-visits to the dermatologist, all the over-the-counter stuff, even some of the products for "acne" on here. What I realized after reading some of the Dermadoctor articles is that my problem has been more than just acne. My skin feels dry/flaky yet it still manages to look oily and shiney...with mild redness...and I have certain areas covered in pimples/breakouts. I have been using the CCC cream for about 2 weeks now and what else can I say but wow! It's so simple to just put it on AM and PM after gently washing my face (and in the AM I use Tease Zone on top of it)--it's the most effective product I have tried thus far. If they ever discontinue this product, I do not know what I will do. I look forward to seeing how well things go as I continue to use it. I only wish they could find a way to cut the cost of the product because spending 85 dollars on skincare is pretty steep for someone like me (I am a grad student on a tight budget).

I'm having a problem using the XRender and XComposite extension. Here's what I'm trying to do. A client window gets directed off screen, some additions are made to the window then the new window gets put back. This is for one window, I'm not writing a window manager. The client application doesn't know that the window contents are being altered.
The window redirection occurs correctly with XCompositeRedirectWindow. The modification of the window occurs correctly with XRenderComposite.
I create a new window for the modified window and display that at the same location at the original input (which is redirected and not visible). The problem is event management. The original application expects to receive events in its window. I tried reading all events from the new window and sending to the original, but the client doesn't see them - maybe because the Window that I'm sending them to isn't visible (maybe an irrelevance or not, but the events in the client application that I'm looking for at at the Xt level, but I expected that these would come through the Window first).
What am I doing wrong? How do events gets forwarded from a redirected window to the new window that contains the renederd output?

My favorite way to use up leftover turkey is to make a delicious pot of turkey soup. This is also a great way to clean out your refrigerator!
To make the best tasting soup, make your own stock, it's easy! Bones make a rich, flavorful stock; use the leftover turkey carcass along with any leftover turkey meat along with an onion, a few stalks of celery, some garlic, herbs, and anything else you find in your refrigerator and let it simmer on low covered with water for a few hours. Then toss out the bones and vegetables, reserve the turkey and start your soup. There are no exact measurements, use whatever is in your refrigerator, or of course you can use canned stock or broth instead.
And yes, you can do this with chicken too!
Some other ideas for leftover turkey, try Skinny Turkey Cuban Sandwich, or Baked Turkey Croquettes, delicious topped with leftover gravy!

text: 130 min | NR Corruption abounds in this stylish, ripped–from–the–headlines story of prisoners released on a day pass to work as killers contracted by high level politicians. The cops must bring them in, never knowing how far the corruption spreads or who they can trust. Selected as part of the Director's Fortnight at this year's Cannes Film Festival, ON THE JOB tells the parallel stories of two killers and a pair of cops. With the older prisoner grooming his protege to take his place upon parole, and the younger cop trying to uncover just how deep the corruption in his department runs, the whole system is turned upside down in this gritty crime thriller.

What's with all the pampering suites at Fashion Week?
Fashion Month seems to have reached an interesting sweet spot of industry and consumer focus. The public has proved just how much it loves to be part of the LFW experience – not just watching the live streams, but actively commenting, sharing and shopping. This we know, but I felt it more keenly than ever this season, due to bigger efforts made to share via technology (hello Topshop 'be the buyer' app, Burberry Beauty Booth and Matthew Williamson Vine videos).

And nope this is not another Yuna vs. Mao thread.
And nope this is not another Yuna vs. Mao thread.
Interesting!~ At the time, Mao answered "Yes", and Yuna "No" to a statement saying "I'm going to win the Vancouver Olympic gold medal. Ironic much?
yeah, Mao certainly doesn't like to lose. I can totally see that.
Thanks for posting! Could anyone translate?
I remember seeing the longer interview...this Japanese show had a friendly atmosphere and was really well-done. At one point I think YuNa was prompted to ask Mao a question in English, and she asks her, "Did you...have lunch?" LOL And Mao says "hai" (yes) and YuNa says "me too." LOL
Anyway, here are the questions as best as I could understand them (note it's a 2-step translation, English from the Korean from the Japanese):
1) Bulgogi (a Korean marinated meat dish) is most delicious
2) I'm still growing/becoming taller
3) I'm confident I'll smile at the end of a performance (the question might also be saying "I'm confident I'll be satisfied at the end of each performance")
4) Although I like skating, I also want to fall in love
5) I'm frankly scared of my mother
6) Even if I were born again, I'd choose to be a skater
7) There was a time when I got dizzy from doing a spin
8) I don't like to lose
9) At the Vancouver Olympics, I'll be the one who gets the Gold
10) If I win the Olympic Gold medal, I'll want to live as a normal girl
Mao/Yuna Q&A session, Apr 8, 2007 / Japanese TV Show
1. My favorite food is Yakiniku(Bulgogi, Korean style barbecued beef). M:yes Y:no
2. My height is still growing. M:no Y:yes
3. I am confident I can smile brilliantly when finishing the performance. M:yes Y:yes
4. I like skating but also I want to love someone. M:yes Y:yes
5. Honestly, my mom is scary. M:yes Y:no
6. If I were to reborn, I would be a skater again. M:yes Y:no
7. I have felt dizzy, when I spin. M:yes Y:no
8. Characteristically, I really hate to lose. M:yes Y:no
9. I will be the one who wins the gold medal at the Vancouver Olympics. M:yes Y:no
10. This is the last question. If I get gold, I want to live as a normal girl. M:yes Y:yes
Last edited by sunny0760; 04-14-2010 at 07:37 PM.
Wow that's indeed really cute. I think Yuna was slightly uncomfortable with the program (hence more reserved or even uninterested at times) while Mao felt completely at home (assuming it was a Japanese show). It's possibly also shown by Yuna's body language, her back was totally straight throughout the video.
Thank you for the translations ^_^

6. If I were to reborn, I would be a skater again. M:yes Y:no
Hmmmm. Interesting answer for Yuna...no wonder why they wanted her to be a happy skater first.
I love this thread. Thank for the video.
It so fun that Mao answered "yes" to first question while Yuna answers "no" in the first question.
Why Mao giggle so much?
But if your mom is TRULY scary, you will never find the guts to admit so :P
I was curious about #9 before the translation was out, because both ended up covering up the mouth while laughing.
It's well known that Mao is a big fan of Korean food. She likes Bulgogi very much and when she competed at 4CC, she ate Bibimbap which is famous local food of Chonju(where 4CC was held). According a recent article, she went to a fancy Korean restaurant after training with her family.
She also seems to be K-pop fan too. The same article says, she was influence by her sister, Mai, who has already been a big fan of TVXQ. It's told that TVXQ's Junsu is Mao's type.
Don't know why she giggled so much but remember they were both 16 back then. Very teenage like responses from both.
Both are lovely and both are fighters. Also interesting to see that No.8.
8. Characteristically, I really hate to lose. M:yes Y:no
Nobody wants to lose. But Yuna has always said that she does not skate for the purpose of winning/high scores, but skates to connect with people. I think Yuna is more in the reseved, introverted, cautious and thoughtful side. More boyish than girlish.
Glad she grew more expressive.
I don't remember any media from any country portrayed YuNa's mom scary and obsessed. It was some biased people here who did that.
I don't think it was related to her being unhappy with skating. I can understand her. I have spent my entire life so far as a scientist. I love being a scientist. But, if I were to reborn, I would love to have different experience.

Sunday, October 27, 2013
When designing a kitchen, homeowners typically give substantial consideration to many elements of their dream design, including cabinet and countertop materials and which brand of appliances they most prefer. But few may consider the lighting for the room as thoroughly.
Lighting is an important consideration in any room.
The right lighting can have a dramatic effect on the functionality of the kitchen, including how the space feels when you enter it. The right blend of lights can create a vibrant mood in the kitchen, while light can be adjusted according to what needs to get done in the space.
Establishing a lighting plan in a kitchen requires a combination of different lights. The main focus should be on three distinct lighting types: task lighting, ambient lighting and accent lighting.
Task lighting
Task light is beneficial anywhere a person will need to perform tasks that require close concentration, such as chopping vegetables. Task lighting shines direct light onto a surface, illuminating it thoroughly, and it can be turned off when it is not needed.
Task lighting is generally placed above counters and islands where one will be slicing vegetables and preparing food. There may be lighting over the sink to illuminate dirty dishes. If a kitchen has a desk area, lighting above the desk will make that area more functional. Many task lighting designs include lights under cabinetry to shine down onto counters and eliminate shadowed recesses. Under-cabinet lighting is a relatively inexpensive add-on for existing kitchens. Homeowners can add lighting afterward to focus more light onto countertops.
Ambient lighting
Ambient lighting is another name for all-over lighting that fills a room. During the day, ambient light may stream in from windows and skylights. However, at night, ambient lighting is created by different light fixtures in a room.
Overhead fixtures are a popular choice for ambient lighting. A blend of hanging pendant lamps, chandeliers and recessed lighting can create the amount of light needed. Homeowners should pay special attention to the bulbs and fixtures they choose, as not all produce the same amount of light. Those concerned about energy efficiency also must give mind to whether the bulbs will use a lot of energy or last a long time. Compact fluorescent bulbs as well as LED lighting are long-lasting and do not use as much energy as incandescent bulbs.
Indirect ambient lighting softens shadows in a room, creating a warm, inviting glow. It is an important layer of light that is often overlooked in the kitchen. Setting ambient lighting on a dimmer enables homeowners to cast a mood that is desired when the kitchen isn't being used for prep work.
Accent lighting
If there are key elements around the kitchen that a person would like to highlight, such as a china set, accent lighting can do the trick. Spotlights can be used to show off collectibles, while a subtle strip of lighting can illuminate a wall of artwork. Many people like to install accent lighting inside of cabinetry to create dramatic focal points.
Homeowners may want to incorporate decorative lighting in their kitchens. This is the use of ornate chandeliers, hanging pendants and other eye-catching fixtures. Decorative lighting should be considered in proportion to the size of the kitchen.
Therefore, smaller kitchens will have smaller fixtures and vice versa. Decorative lighting may be the most expensive type of kitchen lighting, so some homeowners prefer to plan ahead for the inclusion of decorative accents by having the wiring ready and then adding the fixtures over time.
Lighting in a kitchen can be just as important as which appliances and other accessories homeowners choose for their kitchens. Without the right mix of lighting, the kitchen may not be functional or inviting.

Remove dependency of fetch request on produce request and just look at the last logical log offset (which should mostly be cached). This would need the replica.fetch.min.bytes to be number of messages rather than bytes. This also helps KAFKA-671 in that we would no longer need to pass the ProduceRequest object to the producer purgatory and hence not have to consume any memory. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

South Hills Retirement Residence / Pittsburgh
The schools tall windows and grand volumes offered amenities rarely feasible in affordable housing.
Denmarsh Photography
The school's tall windows and grand volumes offered amenities rarely feasible in affordable housing.
The lobby of South Hill Retirement Residence, a participant in the LEED for Homes Multifamily pilot program.
A curtain wall hangs where the auditorium once stood, providing deep daylight penetration.
A typical apartment interior. A blower door test of each unit ensured that the envelope was properly sealed.
The developer received a grant for the cogeneration plant, which cost $271,000 and has a projected payback of 11 years.
A 26-kW PV array mitigates energy use during peak load hours between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.
The new rooftop greenhouse has views of the city.
Ornate handrails were salvaged from the auditorium balcony.
Naturally lit common spaces enhance social connections.
Size: 84,247 square feet
Cost: $108 per square foot
Completed: October 2011
Certification: LEED-Gold
Architect: Thoughtful Balance, with Rothschild Doyno Collaborative, Pittsburgh
Builder: Sota Construction Services, Pittsburgh
Developer: CMS Housing/a.m. Rodriguez Associates, Pittsburgh
Verifier: MaGrann Associates, Mount Laurel, N.J.
Energy: Capstone cogeneration system and turbine / Sharp Solar 26-kW PV system / Teron Lighting Energy Star interior lighting / Icynene R-50 closed-cell spray foam / Owens Corning R-15 fiberglass batts / no-mow grass developed by Penn State
Resources: recycled-content gypsum board / reused handrails and display cases
IAQ: Green Label Plus carpeting from Shaw, Mohawk, Bentley Prince Street / Sherwin-Williams Harmony low-VOC paint
Water: Drought-tolerant native plants / no irrigation
Reusing existing buildings is inherently sustainable, but it's often messy, and the old South Hills High School was no exception. Imagine shoveling out 10 tons of avian waste and abating, piece by piece, oak floors and doors ruined by rain. (The behemoth building had sat vacant for 35 years while the roof rotted and birds flew through.)
Yet transforming it into 106 affordable and market-rate seniors apartments was more than a symbolic gesture. The design team calculated that the embodied energy saved was equal to roughly 5 gallons of gasoline per square foot, translating into 15 years of projected energy expenses for the landmark building.
To make the project work financially and programmatically, a dimly lit shop wing and auditorium were removed, though the balcony's ornate hand railings were salvaged. R-50 closed-cell foam sprayed on the existing roof deck boosted insulation values.
Brick wall interiors were layered with 2 inches of spray foam, then stuffed with R-19 fiberglass batts between metal studs. And the gas-powered cogeneration plant, combined with a 26-kW PV array, is projected to reduce operating costs to $161,000 per year, from $237,000 for an ASHRAE-compliant building.
Despite the building's gifts—tall windows and grand volumes—many developers, daunted by the construction challenges, had passed on this project.
"To get it accomplished, our client had about seven funding sources; it wasn't a slam dunk," says architect Laura Nettleton of Thoughtful Balance. "I feel best about the quality we achieved for the amount of money spent. It feels like a boutique hotel."

Phoronix: AMD's New Open-Source Strategy Explained
Rumors and speculations have been flying around for months about ATI/AMD opening up the source-code to their Linux display driver or providing their GPU specifications to community developers. This for the most part had started after Henri Richard's statement at the Red Hat Summit earlier this year. Well, those rumors can finally be put to rest. AMD will be providing NDA specifications, an open-source library, and there is a new open-source graphics driver as a result. AMD will continue producing a closed-source proprietary driver; however, they are opening the source-code to a critical library with accompanying GPU specifications for X.Org developers. To get the ball rolling, AMD is also funding the development of a new open-source R500/600 driver.
And here I thought it was cold two days ago... >:-)
I'm...confused. What's the point of having NDAs if the driver's going to be open? It can't be that hard to figure out what's doing what..AMD will be providing NDA specifications, an open-source library, and there is a new open-source graphics driver as a result.
Maybe that's what the NDA is for? To make sure the open driver doesn't surpass the proprietary one?The aim of this open-source driver is not to overtake the fglrx driver but rather is designed for those who just want a working desktop with 3D capabilities and basic video playback.
Edit: just to clarify the last question: because the specs are NDA'd, the open source community can't implement new features on their own, thus the proprietary driver remains in the lead.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
Last edited by Xipeos; 09-06-2007 at 01:04 PM.
i think this NDA is very very very evil thing.
imagine for a second
- all current avivo/radeon xorg developers get involved.
- they implement all documented functionality
- some of them feel like catching up to fglrx is the way to go (because fglrx will have some extra features that won't be in the specs).
- ati/amd cancels the nda because they attempted reverse engineering on fglrx (remember bitkeeper and linux?)
- finally, they cannot develop opensource driver because of being tainted with NDA (like airlied was).
call me paranoid, but that's the danger i can see there. it happened once to airlied, and it might happen again.
btw what does "basic video playback" mean. unaccelerated?
I wonder how many people will receive specs under the NDA. I would prefer that AMD release their specs openly, because releasing under the NDA really hobbles development. For example, I'm interested in driver development but have no expertise and in fact only limited programming experience. I'd never be able to qualify for information under an NDA, but I feel like if I had the information, I might be able to make some minor contributions.
I'm also concerned that AMD insists that the open-source driver will have only "basic" functionality. Does this mean that they will not release all of the specs even to those who sign an NDA, or simply that they're beefing up internal driver development and don't expect open-source developers to be able to match that? Will those who sign up for example, be able to get specs for accelerated video decoding if they want to implement it, or will AMD not provide that information at all?
Overall, I'm glad that AMD is finally showing some commitment to getting their hardware well-supported in linux, but I'm concerned that they will hobble the open-source driver in order to keep fglrx ahead.
Despite what it says in the article aobut AMD's Open Source strategy explanation, this looks like R200 all over again. Don't get me wrong, I think it is a very good thing what they are doing, and it could be very beneficial even for non Linux and even Windows platforms (especially the library for talking to the BIOS)... However, this also means that the NDAs most likely apply to those parts of the hardware that either implement third party IP, or the like... So long as the open source drivers don't lag behind as dramatically as the "radeon" driver did for R200 comopared to the "fglrx", I'm OK. After all, it is not AMD's call to open those parts (though I'd like them to disclose those parts too, like the MPEG engine and texture compression (S3TC et al), Z compression algorithms, etc), but since those are licensed from third parties... never gonna happen, unless VIA opens up S3TC and the others open up their specs, it is NOT gonna happen.
It sucks that just like "dependency" hell, we are being held back due to these other dependencies.
Access to specifications isn't needed at all to do minor or even big contributions, it might help but it's not magic things. Wasn't all R300 & avivo & other things done without specifications ? Of course i would prefer freely dl specifications but you can't make this happen in just one step i am pretty (maybe i am bit too optimistic on that ) sure we will see this again in the future.
On the functionality points i think i made, and others too, my self clear to AMD that we want somethings allmost full functional for instance 90% of functionality. I am realistic here because there is things they can't tell us (HDCP, macrovision, ...) and this things are often tightly linked with others functionality so they can't provide all of this, and NDA is likely their for that so we can see how it works but just don't make code for using HDCP or compromissing the whole crypted things while still using others functionality.
To sum up, their word: we want a good open source driver and if in the end it outperform the closed source driver than we will clap but we would prefer to be better. So it's a competition but as a developer i am not willing to put little dirty trick to make one app go 5pfs faster and another little hack for another app to win again 3fps. I want a reliable, performant and clean (code) driver.
So the show will begin soon
It would be nice if openning up the hardware would result in openning up programming possibilities.
those video cards have very impressive performance under certain workloads. It would be nice to harness that sort of thing for things like 3D rendering (thinking of Povray and such), media encoding, encryption, or whatever else people can think of.
Essentially these GPUs things are like CPUs, aren't they? To me this is something that simply cannot be done nearly as well under Windows due to the static closed-source nature of the OS. It could give Linux quite a advantage and make inroads into more of the low-end/mid-range 3D graphics and movie/tv arena. It could provide very cost-effective performance.
Also hopefully this would put more steam behind things like having the LLVM framework support GPUs for graphics programming. This could probably help out Linux desktop quite a bit...

The attached chart (PDF) provides information regarding delinquent loans backing our CL prefix MBS and our non-CL prefix MBS. The information is categorized by MBS pass-through rates with corresponding product type and vintage information (year of MBS issuance). The chart shows the total scheduled unpaid principal balances of loans that were delinquent as to four or more consecutive monthly payments as of August 31, 2010, those balances as a percentage of total scheduled unpaid principal balances of all loans in the related MBS as of that date, and delinquent loan count. The disclosure includes seven categories of conventional fixed-rate mortgage loan product (organized by MBS prefix), two categories of conventional adjustable-rate mortgage loan product, and an additional category (designated as "other") that includes all remaining loan products.
The scheduled unpaid principal balance of single-family MBS loans that were delinquent as to four or more consecutive monthly payments as of August 31, 2010 was approximately $8.5 billion, compared to approximately $8.7 billion as of July 31, 2010.
Market participants should consult our June 1, 2009 MBS Prospectus for additional information regarding our trust agreement provisions and servicing practices regarding troubled loans, including purchases of delinquent loans from MBS trusts.
Note: Since the data contained in the chart is as of August 31, 2010, the chart includes delinquent loans which may have been purchased from MBS in September 2010.

JoHairMedium BrownCurly HairThe Best Product Out There.I am from South America, and I have curly hair. I have tried a lot of stuff, including the expensive ones out there. I can't explain how difficult my hair can be. I frequently wake up looking like a lioness, but this product was a life changing! My hair is still curly, but with really nice curls. Now my hair looks like a little girl's hair, the curls are just nice. I also believe that this is because after applying it I make a bun. So, when I wake up and leave it, it looks fabulous! It does not work for everyone, I can't explain why. But, a friend of mine that has a really fine hair also bought it and she didn't like it at all.
I guess this is for the one with lots of hair, curly, heavy.posted May 16, 2012Link to this post -

Okay So I Watched The Cabin in the Woods (SPOILERS . . . I guess) Posted by VOR on 12/31 at 12:05 am Yeah, I know there are other threads on the movie but deal with it. I was disappointed. It was pretty obvious going in (from the previews and the opening scene) that the kids were being put in a controlled environment where horrible shite was going to happen to them. I expected that. It's just that the payoff was so lame. fricking ancient gods under the earth? Really? It would have been so much better had it actually been a reality tv show as Walt thought at one point. Or if it turned out to be the way that Hollywood makes horror movies. So much more could have been done with those concepts. But ancient gods ending the earth? Bleh. Although I did like the merman killing Bradley Whitford. Reply Back to Top |
Posted by HumbleNinja on 12/31 at 12:20 am to VOR The entire movie is a metaphor that uses a ton of symbolism, ancient Gods included. I enjoyed the movie and the message it was trying to convey. Loved the similarities between the massacre of that movie and the similar parts of Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Reply Back to Top |

Posted by dallastiger55 on 12/31 at 8:47 am to VOR the movie was terrible and a piece of shite. its amazing how many threads they are on here calling it Citizen Kane. Apparently we arent alone in thinking that. when my wife and I saw it in theaters about 15 people walked out, Ive never seen that many people do that. also as the group of us left the theater and went in the lobby i overheard at least 3-4 people saying how it was one of the worst movies they've ever seen. its not for everyone and yes i get it, i got the point of the movie, i just thought it sucked Reply Back to Top |

Anyone else think that posting pre production photos asking for advice downgrades a brands credit and image? Personally, I enjoy keeping almost every detail secret until the release.I post pre-preduction mockups to hopefully get hard, honest feedback. When I show stuff to my friends and family, I feel as if I get pity compliments on it. The public has no reason to do this to me, so I tend to post here first.
To be honest, I would not buy from a single brand on here that has posted pre design templates. To me, it shows that they are not confident in their design aesthetic. Don't get me wrong, that is ok - but why not use the resources in your inner circle to assist you? A huge element of streetwear is the surprise aspect. Master it.

If it's not the same outfit as the first version, then it's not a Teela 2.0.
The title says it all folks ! "IF" we are getting Teela 2.0, how will you like to see her ?
NOTE : I have not included the 200X design since it will "fit" with teen buck very well !!
If it's not the same outfit as the first version, then it's not a Teela 2.0.
I voted for the first option. I want a classic toy outfit Teela that can turn at the waist. There are differences that can be made to make her special from the first release- in other words don't alter her sooo much that owners of the original would feel like if they passed her up they would be missing something vital. But do enough that completists would feel rewarded for double-dipping.
Give her the BG Evil-Lyn rotating bracers, and change them from the original's white and gold to all gold (like the classic toy) but with highlights.
Boots and hair- make them both redder (similar to how in the classic line we had a redhead Teela and later they rereleased the darker brown version).
Make the gold on her bodice and bracers a bit brighter, like the brightest gold used on Bow's boots for instance.
In lieu of the helmeted head and cobra armor (most folks will have this head already from the first release, as well as two options for cobra armor now thanks to the latest weapons pak), include an Alcala-inspired mini-comic 2nd head with blonde tussled hair. I'm not talking about the BG Teela head based on the DC comics, I'm talking a good mash-up of the various Teelas from the original 4 mini-comics. This would mean giving her a different tiara for this look as well. And I would want them to tweak the face sculpt as well to more closely resemble the mini-comic Teela.
Accessories: her shield done in the pinkish Weapons Pak 3 colors to match that set's snake staff and cobra armor. No Staff Of Ka or 2002 sword, as folks already had a chance to get these in the original release plus the new weapons pak. Instead, give her a newly-sculpted Filmation sword like the one we often would see her in battle with. Perhaps a snap-on freeze ray wrist attachment, as she was often fond of freezing her opponents in the cartoon. I would also recolor the laser blaster that BG Teela came with and include that with her.
The reason why I didn't vote straight Filmation is because I feel like the regular Teela we already have negates the need for a stripped down, too basic-looking Filmation version of the character. A lot of folks love Eternos Palace Randor, but an equal amount have said that hemming to close to the cartoon makes for a dull-looking action figure. There's really no need to have a Teela with LESS details. There IS a need for a Teela with more articulation and posing options. This type of Teela 2.0 would take the original figure, improve upon it, and also include easter eggs items for fans of both the original mini-comics AND Filmation (the second head with different face, hair, and tiara sculpt... the inclusion of Filmation based weaponry).

You have some great ideas, zodak74. Although one of the reasons I'd love a 2.0 is b/c I'd like to see corrected, 2-piece snake armor that allows for head articulation. If they weren't going to do that, then I'd be all for axing the armor from the package, but I'd like to see a new version of it made.
Also, for those interested, there's a support thread here:
Why do some people keep equating "Filmation" with "less details" so as to dismiss Filmation influences? Filmation Randor is a markedly different design from the vintage version (a courtly king vs. a warrior king), and Filmation Teela also features marked differences from her vintage incarnation. Those differences are not merely a "lack of detail", they are genuine design variants, and most people who want Filmation versions want them for exactly those design differences, not at all for the lack of detail in the animation cells due to animation budgeting needs. Most of us who ask for Filmation variants would like the 4H to sculpt those variants with higher, more realistic detail than a mere carbon copy of the stripped-down cheap-animation rendering of those designs. Apart from improved articulation, Filmation She-Ra 2.0 (mix-and-match of her Filmation head and cape from the 1.0 version with the 2.0 body) has a more detailed sculpt than her previous 1.0 version (particularly in her boots and vambraces) while remaining true to her iconic Filmation look.

I'd much rather get a new Teela variant:
-Snake Teela
-Bride of Skeletor Teela
-Sorceress Teela
...and I really want her two heads with reversed hair colors.
Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti
A Teela 2.0 is something I really want.
Filmation or MYP would be great. I would swap the heads accordingly.
Skeleton-Warriors, Ra-Jar, Spinwit, Rock Golem, Evil Seed, Lord Masque, Prahvus, General Tartaran, Hawke, Slob-Boar, King Agho, Hunga the Harpy, Sh'gora, Masks of Power Demons, Nocturna, Lizzor, Horde Wraiths, Sagitar, Crimson Fury, Lodar, Vizar, Angast, Negator, Melaktha, ABC Giants, Stridor
Teela 2.0: Using the updated 2.0 body but instead of including Zoar, or her Sorceress parts, she could have an alternate Filmation head.
MYP Sorceress is a MUST HAVE figure for MOTUC!
With her default Filmation sword, shield, butt, and *****y attitude you hate to love.
Filmation. As others stated not less detail I want, it's additions. High collar, red high heeled furry top boots, toon accessories, head & like Colder Soldier I too feel she needs a bangin' bottom.
Truthfuly, I'd be happy for any red headed Teela that doesn't cost ridiculous amounts of money. Because my current Teela is BG body, WP3 Staff of Ka & Captain Glenn head. Honestly I'm a little creeped out by the fact Adam's girlfriend is being played by his mother. So yes 2.0 please!

I really MUST HAVE a Filmation Teela and a Duncan Filmation head in her accessories.
I would even sacrifice a new character for the chance at a new Filmation version of this character. And, when you consider how HARD it is for collectors to even GET a Teela 1.0, I assume the fan demand would be obvious.
Etherian Rebel JOSH for the MOTUC (see my avatar)!
I'd rather have the Filmation Teela...it would be so different, it would count as a new figure! (Sorry, if I am reaching). I love the Filmation show and I would have 80% of the characters modeled after those chars. Without the Filmation cartoon, this board, these figures, would likely not even exist. He-Man would have faded into obscurity.
Quite, I have a Filmation Hordak custom I recently did, and I went by Emiliano's design as a base, and what I came up with still has just as much detail as the standard Classics Hordak, but with a different buck as a base. A resculpted head and short furries followed by a nice blue paint job. No lack of details there, and it's clearly recognizable as Filmation.
Randor is not void of detail, Horde Prime is clearly Filmation inspired, and he's full of detail, same with Shadow Weaver....
Filmation does not equal no detail. Costs cut by no detail in the cartoon does not mean that has to or will be transferred to toy version. I mean even what I've seen of Octavia, she is not void of details.
That being said, I'd love a Filmation Teela, but she would have to be done right, a modified Vintage outfit with a back, but still carrying similar detail to the original, but have the cuts sculpted in for the color differences gold to white...etc.
Make her actually appear to have a backside like Frosta has....a new head with the long neck peg crap fixed. There is so much a 2.0 Filmation based Teela can fix. I love the original Teela, but would not object to her Filmation counterpart as a variant, in fact, I'd much welcome it.
Now get me my Filmation Mer-Man head.

I don't want any more Filmation inspired characters in Classics. Eternos Palace Randor's boring look and terrible sell-through time should be taken as a hint.
Give me a better articulated v1 Teela or one based on her look from the original 4 mini-comics.

Teela 2.0:
-New Teela Armor fit to the 2.0 buck (waist cut)
-BG EL rotating Bracers
-Same Skin tone as Teela 1.0 (for head swapping)
-Reddish boots matching the WP#3 items.
-Reuse the normal Teela head but with new longer ponytail piece (not 200X Long, but longer than the 1.0 head) but blonde to kinda classicize the mini comics blonde Teela.
-200X Colors Cobra Staff
-shield matching the WP#3 items
-Second head like the first one but with red hair.
FINALLY!! GLIMMER IS IN MY SHELF!! Now I need a Crita!! Crita is to Mara what Evil Lyn is to Teela. If we ARE getting Mara, then we NEED Crita.
They are coming though, and we already have many, and honestly you can't base anything on Randor, there are many more Filmation characters that can still come variants and all, that would be much more detailed, besides, we're getting Octavia, Shadow Weaver & Horde Prime are both Filmation based....Randor was a last minute throw in to 2012, to get a second Filmation character in. Although I believe I could have lived with another Filmation character or variant.
But lets look....style guide or not, that was just a way to get the Filmation look into Classics without legal repercussions, even though the Filmation models used that look, it's still recognized as a Filmation appearance.
Swift Wind
Horde Prime
BP She-Ra (basic buck)
Shadow Weaver
King Randor
I for one want Filmation Clawful & MAA figures and Mer-Man & Skeletor heads, even a Leech head. But I'll take Clawful and the 3 heads. Filmation does not equal no detail, Randor is still detailed more than the cartoon, even though I do admit he could have used a tad more. Plus the ability to sit a little and move his legs more than a fraction of an inch.

I don't base everything on Randor, but he's the latest poster boy for "The Silent Majority" that doesn't like him and speaks louder than any of us because they speak with their wallets and in great numbers.
It's more than just the lack of detail that I don't like about the Filmation inspired figures, it's the design sense. IMO, Filmation style = goofy/more juvenile looking in both the stylization and the color choices. Octavia is an example of the goofy color choices. How does she fit with the dark colors of the Horde with that bright yellow leotard?

Just because Randor didn't sell well, ever think it's the character, and not the palette? I love Filmation, but even I was about to pass on Randor, mainly because of who it was. I myself would love to see the characters who haven't been made yet instead of variants (except Hordak), much like many other Filmation fans. And Randor isn't that much brighter than the Vintage Randor, and Shadow Weaver isn't all neon, neither are many of the other characters aside from Adam and Plundor / ar, much of what you say just doesn't describe everything Filmation, some things yes, but not all.
I don't like anything 200X or NA, but I won't be complaining someone got their figures, even if it's a light design cues from 200X....I think Slush Head, Optikk, Icarius, Dekker, Carnivus, Marzo, Faceless One were wasted slots, but I am happy for those who wanted them....And I think NA He-Man & Karatti will be further wastes, but if someone likes them or wants them, who am I, or you to say no, you can't because I don't like them. No one speaks for everyone, and neither does anyone's wallet. Randor was likely a lesser wanted variant, besides a lot of collectors don't simply like variants, no matter who they are.
Dekker took almost as long, but does that mean no more 200X characters if the line survives....not likely, there will be more....the whole figure by figure testing for the next figure is BS. There will be more of every faction / line no matter how the previous figure does....now vehicles and playsets, that's another matter.
Character preference is much different and more prevalent than faction preference, I don't care much for POP, but I will still buy the POP/TGR figures I like and want. And I will not be buying any NA or 200X characters, if I do, I would have to have a serious like of the figure to do so.
Someone wants a personalized line, simply don't buy the figures you don't like. I have my personal complete collection up to now, I don't own every figure, I simply don't have the need to do so, I simply pass on every figure I don't like, and that goes for Vintage based as well. You don't like Filmation characters or figures, fine, just don't buy them when they come out, there are many that do want them. And don't think a 200X Captain or King Randor wouldn't have gone agonizingly slow either, much like Dekker....that one I would have really passed on. I would even pass on a 200X He-Man and Skeletor.

The way many people use one character to try to determine how well another character will do has many flaws. Largely because you have to look at why the various collecting factions work. Some work based what they had as a kid. Some like the cartoon designs or themes, some the minicomics, some just get favorites from childhood (sometimes modified by current interest), others get everything, others just the figures that are 'well done.'
You could say a new Teela wouldn't do as well because female figures tend to not sell as well, you can compare to filmation or 200x characters or versions that didn't that well. But in the end the question is based on all the previous factions I listed (and more) how desired really were the figures that didn't do as well. Consider this also, Teela is going for ~90 bucks on ebay atm. Most other figures are going for at price - 40 (not including oversized figures etc). I would love a Teela that is like bubble power She-ra one that on the base is similar enough to the original release but has some kind of armor that makes her different in package. Maybe a 200x variant with removable skirt and swappable head and a vest.
I say this of course I want a Teela, and as it stands she is the last figure I want for my collection. But again not sure I am willing to spend 90 bucks on her.

I would love a Filmation Teela, but I don't have to have her, but agree a 2.0 Teela would be nice to remedy a few flaws the original has. Also I agree with the character/faction by character/faction thing, as I also said, it's can't really be used correctly, as some of any faction are much more desired than others, which is why it aggravates me to no end how people choose to use it, no matter what Mattel says, there will always be characters from different lines and factions so long as the line lives, no matter how the previous figure sold.
No one likes a figure, don't buy it, that is why I'll never be a completist in any way of any line. And if you are, don't complain what figures come, as it's not your personal line.

Whose to say that people won't reject at Filmation Teela the way they rejected the Randor? Randor took a long time to sell out and that's a fact. Was it his character? His design? Bad timing? Awful weather in Philly? NOBODY can know for sure, but that won't stop me from speculating based on his differences from other figures in the line. His major difference; Filmation styling.
Further, I'm not "complaining someone got their figures" as you say. So get off your high horse, dude. I'm sharing and will continue to share what I want and what I don't want in the line regardless of whether I buy them or not. That's what sharing your ideas on a message board is about, isn't it?
I'd prefer a Non-Filmation Teela and that's just how it is. And if they were to produce a Filmation one, I speculate that it will perform as well as Eternos Randor.

Speculating which figures will bomb based on your dislike of said figures, and you say I'm on a high horse....nice touch.
But whatever you say, like you said, it's only speculation on your part, not mine, not anyone else.
Dislike Filmation all you want, but don't act like all Filmation figures would look like their animation models exactly,
nor would they sell well enough....There are plenty of Filmation based figures already in the line that prove otherwise,
despite whatever legal way Mattel used to get them in the line. And more will surely follow....

And first release Randor goes for about 35 bucks on Ebay. While it is possible she wouldn't do as well in a look like that, it's also possible she might because of difference of demand on the character. Battleground Teela is drastically different enough to not be included in the running.

Phoronix: NVIDIA Says It Has No Plans To Support Wayland
Last week Mark Shuttleworth shared that Ubuntu will begin shipping the Wayland Display Server with their Unity desktop in a future release (likely around Ubuntu 11.10 it will become an experimental part of their desktop stack, but a PPA repository of Wayland for Ubuntu is already being worked on now). While being a supporter of Wayland and the first to cover this display server project two years ago when it was just in its infancy, this even caught me by surprise and a bit of a shock that Ubuntu, the leading desktop Linux distribution, planned to begin shipping support for it so soon...
"We have no plan to buy an Nvidia" cit.
after that point is cleared now, could we get back to real buisness and work for the next X.org/Xserver release? tnx.
we have no plans to buy nvidia or other GPU
stupid bussines stuff.. for taking money they are first, for making a new features.. not...
if you will call wayland a DX12... they will be racing to implement...
Lol, this is such non-news. If Wayland will ever become what X is now Wayland will be supported by NVIDIA. Right now Wayland isn't even being used. Easy enough to tell your not going to support it now.
In other words: Nothing to see here, move along.
same dx 11, move along
the migration to wayland will take years, so i dont really see the problem for people with intel/ati graphics solutions.
by then the gallium/ati driver will kick ass and be a good alternative to fglrx even performance wise.
funny how nvidia will probably go from the linuxusers favorite gpu manufacturer to place 3
Even if Wayland becomes sort of a defacto standard on Linux desktops and nVidia *still* decides not to support it, I don't really see the problem: nvidia blob users will keep on using X.org and nouveau users will use Wayland (or X.org). So everyone would still have a choice in what kind of driver and display server to use (except of course the newest-gen gfx card users, for obvious reasons).
For that matter, I don't get all those people whining about Canonical planning to implement Wayland: They can run an xserver on wayland if they need the features, and if that for some reason doesn't meet their needs X.org will still be in the repo's, so anyone can simply swap out Wayland for X.org. Linux in general is about choice and fortunately Canonical is not about to take that away from Ubuntu's users.
For anyone who doesn't need features like X-forwarding (which will be most Ubuntu users I'm guessing), implementing Wayland will be a huge win both in display quality and performance.
Lol, this is such non-news. If Wayland will ever become what X is now Wayland will be supported by NVIDIA. Right now Wayland isn't even being used. Easy enough to tell your not going to support it now.
In other words: Nothing to see here, move along.
Whatever. This is just another example of Nvidia and people's dependence on their proprietary driver holding back advancements. Every time somebody tries to do something to improve X then it breaks the nvidia driver and then you have a vocal minority of users blowing up all over the place.
The one thing that you have to understand about Nvidia is that they don't give a flying shit about you. There is only one group of people they care about that use Linux and that is in high-end 3D applications, movie studios, and scientific visualizations. The reason Nvidia cares is because these people spend a shitload of money on hardware and utterly refuse to use Windows.
If it was not for that Nvidia wouldn't give Linux a crap and this expresses itself in their refusal to work with everybody else to improve the quality and usability of desktop Linux.
If that were true, then why did NVIDIA propose extensions to X to give it the sort of smooth presentation that Wayland claims to provide, but in a way that will work for everybody?

Last updated at 07:56, Friday, 04 May 2012
A Workington man who was given the opportunity to be a torchbearer through a competition at work is hoping to meet one of his local heroes on the day.
Chris Casson, 38, of Lakeland View, will be carrying the torch through Workington and is hoping to meet fellow torchbearer and fell running legend Joss Naylor, who is torchbearing through Flimby.
Chris said: "I would love to get a photo taken with Joss Naylor because he is a bit of a local hero.
"I am looking forward to it. I think it will be really good.
"It will be a nice story for my daughter Evie and when she is older I will be able to go to her school and show them the torch and tell them all about it.
"It is a once in a lifetime opportunity."
Chris's family from Leeds and his brother from Newcastle will travel to Workington to see him on the day and his wife Kerrie is hoping to get the day off work so she can take 20-month-old Evie along.
Chris is one of two workers from Asda at Dunmail Park who were nominated as torchbearers through a competition run by Coca Cola, one of the main sponsors of the games.
The store in the country which sold the most Olympic edition Coca Cola was given the chance to nominate four members of staff to be torchbearers.
Four nominees were picked by colleagues and management and Coca Cola decided on the final two.
Chris, a home shopping supervisor, thinks he was nominated because he helps out in all departments of the store and works in the background to help customers.
As well as his work in the store he was part of a group that raised £1,100 for the 4th Workington Cub Scout Pack by doing the Three Peaks Challenge in August.
He is planning on doing some more fund-raising for the pack in June when he and his friends tackle the Welsh 3000 Challenge which involves getting to the top of all 15 of the mountains over 3,000 ft in Wales without using any form of transport.
