The Altamaha River /ˈɑːltəməhɑː/ is a major river in the U.S. state of Georgia. It flows generally eastward for 137 miles (220 km) from its origin at the confluence of the Oconee River and Ocmulgee River towards the Atlantic Ocean, where it empties into the ocean near Brunswick, Georgia. There are no dams directly on the Altamaha, though there are some on the Oconee and the Ocmulgee. Including its tributaries, the Altamaha River's drainage basin is about 14,000 square miles (36,000 km2) in size, qualifying it among the larger river basins of the US Atlantic coast.[3] It is reportedly the third largest contributor of fresh water to the Atlantic Ocean from North America.[4] Including its longest tributary (the Ocmulgee River) in length calculations as is standard USGS practice, its length of 470 miles (760 km) places it seventh on the list of U.S. rivers entirely within one state, behind only four Alaskan rivers, the Sacramento-Pit River in California, and the Trinity River in Texas.[6] The beginning of the Colorado River of Texas is just within New Mexico. The long Mobile-Alabama-Coosa River system, mostly in Alabama, originates a short distance within Georgia.
The Altamaha River traverses a broad area of low population density with few significant towns or cities along its course. There are some along its upper tributaries, such as the fall line cities of Milledgeville on the Oconee and Macon on the Ocmulgee. Centuries ago, riverboats used the Altamaha to reach those towns and the plantations founded along the rivers, which were the main transportation routes.
According to the USGS, variant and historical names of the Altamaha River include A-lot-amaha, Alatahama, Alatamaha, Allamah, Frederica River, Rio Al Tama, Rio de Talaje, and Talaxe River.[7]
The 1,759-megawatt Plant Hatch nuclear power plant sits on the southern bank of the Altamaha River in Appling County.[8] A Rayonier paper mill that manufactures cellulose fibers used in plastics and absorbent materials for diapers, tampons and other products is located on the southern bank of the Altamaha River in Wayne County.[9]
The Altamaha River originates at the confluence of the Oconee River and Ocmulgee River, near Lumber City. At its source, the Altamaha River forms the border between Jeff Davis County to the south and Montgomery County to the north.
Bullard Creek Wildlife Management Area occupies the southern floodplain of the river's first few miles, after which the river marks the boundary between Toombs County to the north and Appling County to the south.
On the north side, Toombs County gives way to Tattnall County, in which the Ohoopee River joins the Altamaha. The Big Hammock Wildlife Management Area and Big Hammock Natural Area are located along the Altamaha at the Ohoopee confluence. Big Hammock Natural Area is a National Natural Landmark site, noted for its ecological biodiversity and many rare plant species, including Georgia plume.
Below Big Hammock, the tributary Beards Creek joins the Altamaha River from the north, after which the river marks the border between Long County to the north and Wayne County to the south. The Altamaha passes through Griffin Ridge Wildlife Management Area before flowing by Doctortown, near Jesup. A wide and swampy floodplain surrounds the river in this area.
Several miles below Doctortown Wayne County gives way to McIntosh County on the north side of the river. From this point to the river's mouth there are numerous wildlife management areas. The Sansaville Wildlife Management Area lies on the south side of the river, while the Altamaha Wildlife Management Area lies on the north and extends down to the river's mouth at Altmaha Sound. Wolf Island National Wildlife Refuge occupies Wolf Island on the Atlantic coast, north of Altamaha Sound. In its last several miles, the Altamaha River marks the boundary between McIntosh County on the north and Glynn County on the south.
The town of Darien lies just north of the Altamaha River's mouth. Several miles to the south lies the larger city of Brunswick. St. Simons Island lies on the south side of the Altamaha estuary.[7] The estuary of the Altamaha River, where fresh and salt water mix, is about 26 square miles (67 km2) in size, one of the largest intact, relatively non-degraded estuary on the Atlantic coast.[4] The Altamaha River Delta has been designated as a site of regional importance[10] to shorebirds by the Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network (WHSRN).[11]
Natural history[edit]
Although used in the 19th century as a route for commerce between central Georgia and the coast, the river is nearly entirely still in its natural state, and was designated a bioreserve by The Nature Conservancy in 1991. Over one hundred rare or endangered species may be found in the river basin, and the delta is a major stopover for many species of migratory birds.
The Altamaha River flows through a flood plain up to five miles (8 km) wide and consisting of some of the last remaining hardwood bottomlands and cypress swamps in the American South. As the river approaches the Atlantic Ocean it becomes a broad estuary. At least 120 species of rare or endangered plants and animals live in the Altamaha River watershed, including eleven species of pearly mussels, seven of which are endemic to the Altamaha. The river basin also supports the only known example of old growth Longleaf Pine and Black oak forest in the United States. Other notable species include Shortnose sturgeon, Atlantic sturgeon, West Indian manatee, Eastern indigo snake (Drymarchon couperi), Greenfly orchid, and Georgia plume.[3] The unusual Franklin tree (Franklinia alatamaha), now extinct in the wild, was found by John Bartram along the Altamaha River in 1765. Bartram sent seeds from the trees to England and planted some in his garden in Philadelphia,[4] where some still live.
In prehistoric times the Timucua people occupied northern Florida and a portion of Georgia reaching as far north as the Altamaha River. The Utinahica tribe lived along the river and the Spanish mission of Santa Isabel de Utinahica was established around 1610 near the source of the Altamaha. Along the coast of Spanish Florida the Altamaha River marked the boundary between the Guale and Mocama missionary provinces.
New research announced in February 2014 indicates that Fort Caroline, built by the French in 1564 and probably the oldest fortified settlement in North America, was likely constructed near the mouth of the Altamaha River. Historian Fletcher Crowe noted: "This fort is older than St. Augustine, considered to be the oldest continuously inhabited city in America." It was long believed the legendary fort was located near today's city of Jacksonville, but detailed archival research in France on Fort Caroline and the early history of 'La Floride Française' has proved that wrong, suggesting the Altamaha mouth location as highly likely. The site still remains to be excavated by archaeologists. In 1565, Spanish soldiers under Pedro Menéndez marched into Fort Caroline and slaughtered some 143 men and women who were living there at the time.Science Daily, 23 Feb. 2014
In the later 17th century a group of Yamasee Indians under Chief Altamaha took up residence near the mouth of the Altamaha.
The Altamaha River marked the western border of the Colony of Georgia until the American Revolution and therefore the western border of the English settlement in North America. It also marked the boundary between the Spanish missionary provinces of Guale and Mocama. The name comes from a Yamasee chief named Altamaha.
In 1770, Oliver Goldsmith referred to the river in The Deserted Village (ll. 343–358):
- "Through torrid tracts with fainting steps they go,
- Where wild Altamaha murmurs to their woe.
- Far different there from all that charm'd before,
- The various terrors of that horrid shore;
- Those blazing suns that dart a downward ray,
- And fiercely shed intolerable day;
- Those matted woods where birds forget to sing,
- But silent bats in drowsy clusters cling;
- Those poisonous fields, with rank luxuriance crown'd,
- Where the dark scorpion gathers death around;
- Where at each step the stranger fears to wake
- The rattling terrors of the vengeful snake;
- Where crouching tigers wait their hapless prey,
- And savage men more murderous still than they:
- While oft in whirls the mad tornado flies,
- Mingling the ravag'd landscape with the skies."
In 2004, filmmaker Les Stroud taped an episode of his show Survivorman in the swamps of the Altamaha basin.

Need testers for Ritewings.
I have 3 sets of cores to give out and I am looking for some exp builders /fliers.The core's are the newest of the new in development of my new line.Heres the line up.
Demon 40' Needs power and loves 50 to 150+ mph.tracks strait hands off wide open.She turns on a dime like a pylon racer. TL 40 great All around speed and handling sligtly lofty and is smokin fast. She is an all around great wing ,That will do rolling circles at 1/2 throttle ,While still being able to b smokin fast. Version II of the 50' lightning different foil than the original and afew other mods to tip and chord and a new different foil.It has alot more room for the gear .It unloads better and is suitible for multiple drivetrain configurations. One other question ? would you guys be interested in a Ritewing build method video CD?It will include some method on reinforcement layout and build tools and material description. This is what I have to offer.I tweaked tested and ree tweaked , and flown these. And they are sweet, and I need some unbiased opinions. Let me know what you guys have to offer as far as build exp and available drive train options. Here are pix of the three models The TL and Demon are the same planform but the foils are different.And the orange and grey is the L 50 II. Ck |
Right here dude !!!! I will PM you
Sign me up..
I have been building for many years and have both foam and balsa skills have built and flown wings from 16" to 48" and have what ever it takes to push the wing along. Also I have developed my own smalish 40" flying wings back in my balsa slope days. the 40 would be better but the 50 would be just as fine. Just a bit harder to lug aroung in the Miata I have a BL double out runner, a few hackers and a few diffrent brushed motors ranging from 400's to 540's have servos suited for this craft also recivers and glues and covering. If i do not have what I need my LHS and mail order is only a call away. The CD would always help. But is not nessecery Thanks for the chance.. Most recent build http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=425353 of have a look at http://viscovich.dhs.org for some of the other things I had going on. Paul Viscovich |

Greetz there Mr K,
Given the dearth of hard copy build instructions for Lightning's et al, I probably would have sprung for an assist dvd. With a dvd you should be able to keep the cost down, modify the contents easily and burn copies as needed. While I didn't have any problems with my own build, I did spend some time squinting at your pic's trying to figure out how you had done yours. Ended up guessing and making assumptions. Turned out well in the end, but I don't think a build like that is for everybody. Had my Lightning out at the field today. Still in good condition. Unreal the way the thing can climb straight up and in a few seconds be nearly out of sight. Had just maidened a rebuilt original Zagi 400 (EPP-styrofoam) speed 400 that had been moldering in my garage. Quite a difference! Oh yeah, managed to grab a eRaider kit from HP this week. Nice fat airfoil. Figured i better grab one before they disappear for good. DVD would be good. r1 |

set ups
They Can be set up a few ways with a 3turn and 4000 or more mahr of 3s lipos.Or a 4turn with a 6/5.5 apc prop built light with 3000 or so lipo's.
The Demon can do the 3 turn thing or you can do like me with 2 4s 2600 wide or 2 4s 2200 n poly quest and a mega 4 or an HET typhoon 4 wind both with a 5.5/4.5 apc,and it will rip. Also a minimum on the 4s stuf would be a cc 60 ESC to be safe. The demon just needs power and loves speed so some diapers might need to be had too LOL.The nice thing with the 4s setups is you can fly wide open for 10 plus miniuets or so. CK |
JUDAS PRIEST! You have got to be outside your mind. Burn the DVD just for evidence of your place in history.

I know I know carl.My methods can be done rite or messed up badd, i kno.I am just seein if some exp wing buildes would entertain the fact wings can be taken to the next level if the love goes into the build.
hopefuly we can make wings not be so hated, and make them not so gooey and tapie.I have gone great lengths to do so.My builds blow away conceptions of the dreaded tape monsters and I have ben contemplating sharing the love to the people who would be willing to take the time to do it rite via pix and vid.JUst a thought at this point. Ck Ck Quote:
I'm not in a position for building right now, but I'd like to day that whoever gets these planes is lucky....chris's designs are sweet. Like most "really great" kitters, he spends an ungodly amount of time tweaking an retesting his tesigns.
--Alex |
If you'd like to add a tester who has an intermediate set of building skills then sign me up. I've built a few kits, wings included, over the past few months and someone at my skill level might be better able to help you flesh out the documentation for the production kit.
If it helps at all I spent a good deal of my career doing technical writing/training... Chris |
Ethier or but the 40 is simpler to transport. It is amaing what 10 inches can do in the way of getting it to the field or hangiong it out the windows.. Sent ya a PM.. Thanks. |

The article Obama's likely pick for cybersecurity head remains murky by Doug Beizer and Alice Lipowicz in FCW caught me off guard:
There is surprisingly little buzz circulating about who President Barack Obama might choose to lead cybersecurity policy. Although a number of analysts have ideas about the qualities the person filling the position might need, no one is naming names of likely contenders yet — partly because it remains unclear what the eventual appointee will actually do...
Rohyt Belani, co-founder and managing partner of computer security firm Intrepidus Group, said the ideal candidate would combine qualities from three people: security consultant Bruce Schneier; Richard Bejtlich, director of incident response at General Electric; and Chris Eagle, a senior lecturer and associate chairman of the Computer Science Department at the Naval Postgraduate School.
Belani said Schneier has "an ability to focus on what matters and call out silly bureaucratic processes that do little to help security." Bejtlich's strength is a passion for digital security, and Eagle knows where the needs are for offensive capabilities, Belani added.
I have not received any phone calls, but if need be I am sure the right people can find me. :)
Richard Bejtlich is teaching new classes in Las Vegas in 2009. Regular Las Vegas registration ends 1 July.

Your car or truck's Mercury Mud Flaps are often found at the rear of your truck's tires to trap the maximum amount of dirt. Missing Mercury Mud Flaps can cause your vehicle's lower body to be continuously unprotected from mud, causing dents and rust. Your car or truck is only as good as the parts it uses, and so we here at PartsGeek are excited to help you find the best parts for any job.
I ordered replacement windshield wipers for my Volkswagen GTI. The price was much better than local auto parts stores, and my parts arrived two days later in their original packaging and protected by bubble-wrap. What can I say? It was a simple order but they nailed it. It was my first time ordering from Parts Geek and I would definitely do it again.
Have not recieved order yet.

Clinical efficacy of fluvoxamine and functional polymorphism in a serotonin transporter gene on childhood autism. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 16119478 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
We studied the correlation between response to fluvoxamine and serotonin transporter gene promoter region polymorphism (5-HTTLPR). Eighteen children with autistic disorder completed a 12-week double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized crossover study of fluvoxamine. Behavioral assessments were obtained before and at 12 weeks of treatment. 5-HTTLPR (long (l) or short(s)), was analyzed by the PCR method. Ten out of 18 patients responded to fluvoxamine treatment; allele type analysis revealed that clinical global effectiveness was noted significantly more in the l allele than in the s allele. However, with respect to language use, a significant effectiveness was noted in the s allele. 5-HTTLPR may influence the individual responses to fluvoxamine administration. |

1080p is a ghetto that I want to escape from. Monitors 23" an larger need more vertical resolution than 1080P to avoid having giant pixels.
Windows 8 needs good touchscreen monitors. Dell, please kill two birds with one stone by offering a high quality, 23" or larger, touchscreen monitor with more vertical resolution than 1080P.

The above comments are in tune with my observation of much what I call "posing", that's all to common in our society. I suppose we can blame advertising or Hollywood movies or video games or whatever but it's the "at home parenting part" that can be the denominator in this all.
You can bet your bottom dollar that my kids(in spite of their educations,jobs & all that kind of "stuff") don't walk away from the simple pleasures in life & respect for all .
I live where much of this LaLa land property & "stuff" as you say are non-existent but it doesn't mean that locals attitudes are always in the best direction. As a guy that 1st owned a BMW car(one of the status symbols we speak of) in 1969 I have always adhered to the fact that I'm a "greasy BMW guy" & certainly not an "uppity owner". It's my little escape from BMW "aura" that some attach. The Roundel(and the other high end machines) is unfortunately something that's in the posers realm of having class.
E.G. for this "uppity crap":
There is a scooter (my latest 2 wheel disease) for sale on ebay now that's painted Ferrari red & has the horse stickers on it & the seller is a Ferrari dealer(the cars are in the background)-the whole 9 yards of uppitiness exemplified & it is just a simple scooter, mind you, that's been repainted red & had stickers added & people are bidding like crazy. No, I don't want it but my point is that it appears that the paint & stickers are making it sell.
and I told myself not to rant

Kenneth Faried helps USA to another victory before start of World Cup
Posted By Nicki Jhabvala On August 26, 2014 @ 3:59 pm In Kenneth Faried,Team USA | 1 Comment
Nuggets forward Kenneth Faried helped lead the U.S. men's national basketball team to another exhibition victory on Tuesday, a 101-71 rout of Slovenia at Gran Canaria Arena, the team's final tuneup game before the start of the 2014 FIBA Basketball World Cup. Faried racked up 14 points (including that dunk above) on 6-of-10 shooting with eight rebounds and one block [1] in the Americans' victory
New Orleans Pelicans center Anthony Davis led the way for the U.S., scoring 18 points on 5-of-8 shooting from the field with nine boards, five blocks and three steals.
The U.S. closed out its exhibition schedule with a 4-0 record — and did so with little trouble; it won those games by an average of 29 points. The Americans held an 18-point lead at one point in Tuesday's game, but Slovenia, led by Phoenix Suns guard Goran Dragic, started draining threes to help close the gap somewhat by the end of the half. A 22-4 run in the third, however, helped to keep the U.S. on top until the final buzzer.
The latest show from Faried comes on the heels of an impressive showing in a 112-86 win against Puerto Rico in which the Nuggets' big man put up 12 points on 6-of-6 shooting, while throwing down some rim-shaking dunks [2], blocking a pair of shots and grabbing five rebounds.
Coach Mike Krzyzewski and USA Basketball director Jerry Colangelo announced the final roster [3] after the win over Puerto Rico, making Faried the fifth Nuggets player [4] to represent the U.S. Faried has started all four of the team's exhibition games, averaging 10.3 points and team-highs in shooting (72 percent) and rebounding (6.8 per game).
The World Cup begins Aug. 30, when the U.S. takes on Finland in Bilbao, Spain (1:30 p.m. MT, ESPN).

MOUNT LAUREL, N.J., Sept. 4 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Approximately 85 percent of the 8 million adults living with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) remain undiagnosed due to a lack of knowledge and the negative stigma surrounding this neurobiological disorder. Without proper medical and behavioral treatment these adults are likely to suffer from depression, anxiety and relationship problems.
In order to increase understanding of the disorder and provide hope to people with AD/HD, the Attention Deficit Disorder Association (ADDA) is marking the fourth annual AD/HD Awareness Week (September 16-22) by providing education, resources and support to those affected by AD/HD and professionals working with them. U.S. Senator Maria Cantwell (WA) issued Senate Resolution 295 designating September 19, 2007 as "National Attention Deficit Disorder Awareness Day."
With the aim of increasing awareness of this disorder and empowering individuals through education, ADDA is dedicated to providing resources to adults with AD/HD, their friends and relatives, as well as professionals working with them all year long.
AD/HD symptoms can include:
-- Difficulty paying attention to tasks and completing projects
-- Failure to follow instructions carefully and completely
-- Losing or forgetting important things
-- Habitually fidgeting; squirming
-- Chronic boredom and restlessness
-- Talking excessively and frequently interrupting others
Fall Regional Meetings and Teleclasses Provide Education, Networking and Support
"Awareness Day is a great opportunity to educate members of your local community and help promote awareness," said ADDA President Linda Anderson. "There is so much misinformation out there and so many people still do not know the facts about AD/HD. It is our duty to educate them and increase the percentage of adults and children who are properly diagnosed and treated."

Tracking the Odds of Trend Days: Excellent Tool From Vertical Solutions
Few questions are more vital for the active trader than identifying day structure: whether the current trading session is shaping up as a trend day or a day that will trade within a range. Identifying a trend day enables you to hold trades through the session, as trend days typically open near their low (high) for the day, trade with expanded volatility, and close near their high (low) for the day. On a trend day, you want to trade the market's direction; on range days, you want to fade it. On a trend day, you'll tend to hold trades; on a range day, you'll tend to get in and out of swings. How you trade a market will critically depend upon the day structure that you identify.
Henry Carstens of Vertical Solutions, who develops, trades, and manages money with mechanical systems based on historical testing, has conducted research into the characteristics of days that turn into trend days. Based on that research, he has developed an indicator (see above) that spits out--in real time--the odds of whether the present day in the stock market is likely to be a trend or range day. Best of all, that indicator is available on his site at no charge, along with other forecasting tools that he has developed.
If you check out Henry's Twitter page, you'll find his trading signals also posted in real time, along with trend status. His strategies have performed quite well and now are available for managed accounts. Great resources!

I'm not sure whether it's my browser, but I don't see any number in that link, only the 'rainbow'.

Yes, there seems to be a problem with the indicator. I get different numbers depending upon whether I'm in Firefox or IE, and it's a big difference - 20% vs 45%.

WASHINGTON -- Americans, perhaps more than anyone, worship the future and resent the past.
This is never truer than during a political season. It doesn't matter whether the past (meaning all of four years ago) trumps the present -- or whether the future carries a whiff of embers and smoke -- we gallop into tomorrow like a dog who mastered the screen door latch, and find little worthy of regard in yesterday.
"As we asked ourselves how we could have gotten the story wrong ..."
Thus read a Rolling Stone editor's note attached to a post-mortem story on the false story it published last fall about an alleged gang rape by members of University of Virginia's Phi Kappa Psi fraternity.
I have your attention, don't I?
The apparently intentional downing of a Germanwings airliner by the co-pilot has us riveted, as commercial plane crashes usually do.
WASHINGTON -- I'm standing in the Starbucks line behind 10 other sleepyheads waiting to order my tall skinny cappuccino, otherwise known as a shot of coffee described as I wish it to be.
WASHINGTON -- On March 2, the story broke that Hillary Clinton had possibly violated email regulations while secretary of state.
WASHINGTON -- When Democrats were looking for evidence of a Republican war on women, they overlooked Exhibit A -- Sarah Palin.
This isn't to say that Palin was part of the war on women, though many Democrats would say so. Rather she was one of the war's most conspicuous victims -- fragged, you might say -- by her own troops.
WASHINGTON -- Forget E.F. Hutton. It's P.F. (Pope Francis) these days who, when he talks, people listen.
WASHINGTON -- If we can be serious for a moment: The president made an error in judgment by not sending someone with a higher profile than our ambassador to join world leaders Sunday at a solidarity rally in Paris.
WASHINGTON -- Recent events from Ferguson, Missouri, to Staten Island, New York, might prompt an observer to infer that American cops are racist and that a bigoted white populace tolerates unnecessary lethal force against minorities.
WASHINGTON -- A writer seeking profound pronouncements for a year-end column is likely instead to find herself awash in punchlines. Life isn't a comedy. It's a joke.
WASHINGTON -- First there's the spark, then the conflagration, followed by the litigation and then, surely, the movie. Call it "Moonlight Fire," and prepare to suspend disbelief.
WASHINGTON -- It is probably too soon to declare a feminist reformation, but a few signs here and there give one hope. Hold it, sirs, don't stop reading yet. I realize that seeing the F-word in the first paragraph is like discovering that your bride is wearing pantyhose, but bear with me.
WASHINGTON -- To paraphrase Roger Miller -- and, indeed, to reveal my vast store of musical trivia -- America swings like a pendulum do.
If projections, human nature and historical bent prevail next Tuesday, we may see a bit of topsy-turvy up on the benighted Hill. Anything still can happen, but it seems as though Republicans may command both the House and Senate beginning next year.
WASHINGTON -- If politicians preying upon your attentions this season fail to inspire, you might seek common cause with the beasts -- the four-legged variety rather than those running for office. Ballot initiatives aimed at protecting bears and wolves from hounding, trapping and other inhumane hunting practices are up for a vote in two states -- Maine and Michigan.
WASHINGTON -- So unpopular is President Obama these days that the (D) following Democratic candidates' names might stand for Denial. And, so desperate are political pundits for any fresh news crumb that a molehill quickly becomes a mountain. One ill-chosen word -- or, worse, failure to answer a reporter's question -- and the candidate is suddenly redrawn into a caricature he doesn't recognize.
WASHINGTON -- Words have a way of seeping into our vocabulary and, through overuse or distortion, soon begin to lose their meaning. Who could have imagined that the word "beheading" would become commonplace, as though we were discussing a sport or a new product?
WASHINGTON -- It has long been accepted by the conventionally wise that the Republican Party is waging a "war on women." Let's be clear. The war on women is based on just one thing -- abortion rights. While it is true that access to abortion has been restricted in several states owing to Republican efforts, it is not true that women as a whole care only or mostly about abortion.
WASHINGTON -- Without prior knowledge or intent, I recently was inducted into a club I had no interest in joining, especially in light of the $200 initiation fee.
WASHINGTON -- About that stunning defeat. Conventional Wisdom, that self-righteous propagandist, has it that Republican House Majority Leader Eric Cantor's trouncing by an academic, tea-sipping nobody marks the end of the GOP establishment.
WASHINGTON -- So much for the argument that having more people armed in public places will result in fewer gun deaths.
WASHINGTON -- The exchange of five Guantanamo detainees for the release of Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl has reminded us of three unpleasant facts of life: The United States does negotiate with terrorists; the president will circumvent laws as circumstances require; Republicans and Democrats will be summarily outraged as party affiliations seem to require.
WASHINGTON -- To hear tell, the mean ol' GOP is waging war on Michelle Obama and, brace yourself, America's children.Got it?The newest war on women/children relates to the first lady's well-intentioned but disastrous school nutrition program, otherwise known as the Dumpster Derby.
WASHINGTON -- Former President George W. Bush once said, rather proudly, that he didn't read newspapers. President Barack Obama, a confirmed newsie, has claimed to read the major papers, perhaps to learn what's going on in his own administration.
WASHINGTON -- Just when you thought American higher learning couldn't get any more ridiculous, along come demands for warning labels on provocative works of literature.
WASHINGTON -- When my neighbor gleefully reported that Bill Maher had dedicated a searing monologue to me for a column about the Donald Sterling/Cliven Bundy rants, my first thought was, Nah. If I tussled with everybody who tossed a brick through the window, I'd never get the draperies hung.
WASHINGTON -- This is the time when Americans renew their hatred of Washington and Washington wallows in a bittersweet cocktail of self-love and self-loathing. Which is to say, this is White House Correspondents' Association weekend, with the dinner Saturday night amid a galaxy of pre- and after-parties. Attendant to these events is the also annual handwringing about the dinner's value.
WASHINGTON -- The Cliven Bundy spectacle in Nevada has provided a Wild West backdrop for our hottest political issues as we gallop toward the midterm elections.
Politically, the conflict between the Bureau of Land Management and the Bundy family has highlighted the importance of picking one's battles wisely. Suffice to say, a smattering of pundits and politicians drank from the wrong chalice.

The PCR performance of Pfx DNA polymerase was then evaluated with respect to product yield and target-length capability. PfuTurbo DNA polymerase and Pfx DNA polymerase were used to amplify a panel of complex, genomic DNA targets, ranging in length from 0.9 kb to 19 kb. Standard reaction conditions were employed, including the use of 100 to 200 ng of template, 30 PCR cycles, 1 minute per kb extension times, and room-temperature reaction assemblies (see below). Amplifications were performed under identical conditions (Methods), with the following exceptions: As per manufacturers recommendations, Pfx PCRs were carried out with 300 M each dNTP, 1.25 U of enzyme and 68C extension temperatures, while PfuTurbo DNA polymerase amplifications employed 200 M (<10 kb) or 500 M (>10 kb) each dNTP, 2.5 U (<12 kb) or 5 U (>12 kb) of enzyme, and 72C extension temperatures.
In all comparisons, PfuTurbo DNA polymerase produced higher product
yields than Pfx DNA polymerase (Figure
2). Moreover, synthesis of the four longest 9.3-kb to 19-kb targets
was achieved with PfuTurbo DNA polymerase, but not with Pfx
DNA polymerase. As described , amplification of long genomic targets (>9
kb) by PfuTurbo DNA polymerase is limited by buffer components,
rather than the robustness of the enzyme. Increasing dNTPs (to 500 M)
and PCR buffer concentration (to 1.5X) was sufficient to allow PfuTurbo

Help! LO still won't eat solids!

I'm raising a human being, not managing an inconvenience.
Proud veggie AP momma to a little miss born 3/2/2012.

We put food on LO's tray, sometimes she eats it and well most of the time she feeds it to the dog.
Food before 1 is for fun...don't sweat it. Just keep offering and eventually some will land in their mouth.
Don't stress too much right now. Just bring it up to your ped at your next appointment. I think the important thing is that you keep trying every day.
Have you tried purees?

"We have four or five computer labs, and we estimate in two or three years we'll be taking these labs apart," said Jeff Noyes, a teacher on special assignment for technology integration at Minnetonka High School.
"You shouldn't have to take a field trip to use a computer. The computer should be where the kids live."
Students can take their iPads home at the end of the school day to work on homework and projects. At the end of every school year, they are collected, then reissued at the start of the next one.
The district's technology budget covers the cost. Each iPad costs $400, has an $8 cover and about $40 in applications, Noyes said.
Minnetonka's iPad investment is cost-neutral for now, but eventually it will save the district money, Noyes said. "We have a chemistry book that costs $170; now we can buy one on iBooks for $15," he said. "We're saving money, and it's more up to date."
The high school's English Department uses many free and low-price books that can be downloaded directly onto iPads.
"I don't think I've signed up for a computer lab since having the iPads," said Andi Larson, a ninth-grade English teacher at Minnetonka High School. "It's been convenient to have that access in the classroom at all times."
In science class, students can plug a probe into the iPad to conduct tests and to graph force, gravity and motion. Note-taking applications allow students to take notes on the tablets and download teachers' PowerPoint presentation. The devices also provide access to other classroom equipment, such as graphing calculators and planners.
Teachers say they're seeing a learning surge that they attribute to tablet use.
In her English class, Larson said she has seen improvement in communication and students' eagerness to learn. "The reality is these kids have the Internet at their fingertips at all times, and this makes them more investigative," she said.
"We want kids to be curious, and the iPads allow that to happen."
Eden Prairie: 'There's just a difference'
Central Middle School in Eden Prairie began its iPad pilot program in the fall. Seventh- and 8th-grade students have iPads for use in class and at home.
"We are now a couple of months in," said Josh Swanson, executive director of technology for Eden Prairie Schools. "All you have to do is walk into a classroom — there's just a difference.
"At this point, our students are living in a digital environment," Swanson said. "Learning and instruction have to shift to meet the needs of what our students are going to experience when they leave our system."
The district is paying for the iPads via its technology budget and money previously used for textbooks and computer lab replacements.
Starting next school year, iPads will continue to be dispersed in Central Middle School, and each student in grades 9 to 12 will receive a MacBook Air laptop.
The vision, Swanson said, is an eventual "complete digital conversion of our district."

Four-Links – Ford-Bombardier, a Crosley rests, the strange cars of the Guild, Super 2CV
* The lads at Hooniverse recently found a Model T-based snowmobile, but one that's quite a bit different than the conversions we're familiar with. Apparently, it's a homebuilt job using Bombardier snowmobile parts.
* Ol' Man Foster, the CrosleyKook, recently posted a touching story about taking his 1949 Crosley convertible off the road. The need for downtime for the Cros is understandable after Foster used it as a daily driver for many years.
UPDATE (13.July 2010): Though it's a few years old, this video that Tim's wife put together regarding Tim's Crosley habit is rather sweet.
* Gary Grant of the Garage Blog recently visited the Guild of Automotive Restorers up north of Toronto and came away with some pics and information of the unusual vehicles on display there, including the infamous Supervan.
* Etienne Musslin likes 2CVs. Etienne Musslin is an excellent photographer. Thus, a great photoblog is added to my RSS reader. (via)
* We like Jeff Teague's work, and now Jeff informs us that he's teamed up with Mark Jordan – Chuck Jordan's son – to form a new design studio called JTDNA. We expect great things from the pair.

[[quoteright:268:[[VideoGame/CaveStory http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cavestory-comparison.png]]]]
[[caption-width-right:268:Same character: Official artwork vs. in-game sprite.]]
In video games, there is a tendency for characters' proportions to change considerably between their official artwork and their in-game appearance. It's quite frequent to see box art with relatively realistically-proportioned characters, while the same characters appear with [[SuperDeformed large heads and small bodies]] when they're in game.
The reason for that is usually graphical limitations. When you only have a 16 x 16 block of pixels to work with, trying to make a sprite with realistic proportions will result in a character with almost no visible face to speak of. This is especially true in older video games (especially licensed games) appearing on fourth-generation and older game consoles; only a few games (like ''RollingThunder'') seemed to avert it. Strategy games on home computers of the time were [[http://www.awesome-engine.com/2011/06/18/1990s-tv-anime-part-3-nintendo/ more likely to avert it]].
It should be noted that many Japanese games didn't originally use the "original" cover art Western players are familiar with; covers were often [[AmericanKirbyIsHardcore completely redone to appeal to American and European sensibilities]], with characters not looking SuperDeformed even if that was a deliberate design choice (as in the case of ''VideoGame/RiverCityRansom'').
Mostly averted by early Western video game designers who tried to use proper proportions, and thus wound up with faceless 'walking stick' characters.
See SuperDeformed for other uses of big heads and small bodies. For the artwork changes that can't be chalked up to graphical limitations, see CoversAlwaysLie.
* The ''Film/{{Ghostbusters}}'' game for the SegaGenesis uses super-deformed sprites, but characters are normally proportioned in portraits and cutscenes.
* VideoGame/TheBindingOfIsaacRebirth features an Isaac with a very large head and very large tears to shoot things with.
[[folder:Action Adventure]]
* The first game in ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZelda'' series.
** Also, the three GameBoy games: while the manuals and other artwork weren't deformed, in the color remake of the first game, it crept from the sprites to the photographer's pictures. All these games, including the first above, used 16x16 sprites.
** The SNES game, while still a bit deformed, was more reasonable, not unlike ''VideoGame/ChronoTrigger''.
* In ''VideoGame/GoldenAxe Warrior'', a ''Legend of Zelda'' clone for the MasterSystem, the hero is depicted as a shirtless gladiator on the game's cover illustration and title screen, but looks more like a cute knight in the actual game.
* ''VideoGame/CaveStory''. Provides the page picture. Apparently, the chibi sprites have become iconic enough that the higher-resolution WiiWare port used the same proportions--and the Nintendo3DS remake ''also'' uses those proportions for character models.
* In ''VideoGame/BomberMan'', this actually affected its future style a lot. The [[http://www.1101.com/nintendo/famicom_mini/images/bomber_man.jpg Japanese]] and [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:BombermanCover.jpg American box art]] of the NES game[[note]]which [[OlderThanTheyThink wasn't the first game]], but Bomberman in ''that'' game [[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness was a completely different character]][[/note]] shows Bomberman as a realistic human in PowerArmor, then subsequent releases made Bomberman look cartoonier and closer to his game sprite. The U.S. covers of ''Bomberman'' and ''VideoGame/{{Bomberman 93}}'' for the TurboGrafx16 also featured non-super-deformed characters that didn't look much like the in-game sprite (the first looked more like some sort of Red Ranger, the second more like ''Franchise/MegaMan''). The one serious attempt to use the realistic character style, the DarkerAndEdgier ''VideoGame/BombermanActZero'', was widely considered [[DorkAge a bad idea]] and quickly abandoned. Even the American-made ''VideoGame/AtomicBomberman'' used a chibi style, despite being slightly more detailed.
* In official illustrations, PacMan has never looked like the [[http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/57/Pacman-cutscene.png partially eaten pizza]] we all know. He's always [[http://images.wikia.com/pacman/images/f/fa/JapanesePacMan.png had legs]] and looked like the form you see in cartoons and later installments.
[[folder:Beat 'Em Up]]
* ''ScottPilgrim: The Video Game'' renders the characters as somewhat chibified compared to the comic versions.
** The comics themselves are slightly chibi as a reference to this trope.
* The character sprites in the NES version of ''VideoGame/DoubleDragon'', while not super-deformed per se, are greatly simplified and rather cartoonish compared to [[http://www.gamengai.com/bn_inf.php?id=512 the illustrations in the game's manual]], which made the characters look like they came out straight from the pages of ''FistOfTheNorthStar''. Some of the character sprites only vaguely resemble their illustrated depictions in the manual (Abobo doesn't sport his trademarked mustache in the manual for example). However, the in-game sprites are actually more accurate to the character designs in the original arcade version than the illustrations were.
* Any NeoGeoPocket version of an {{SNK}} FightingGame turned the cast super-deformed in battle.
* MegaMan, as he appears in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS'', maintains his proportions from the 8-bit games, [[http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140901035215/ssb/images/b/bf/Megaman.png making him appear somewhat stubbier]] as compared to [[http://p4rgaming.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/original.0.png his official art]].
[[folder:First Person Shooter]]
* [[Characters/DragonRage Cael Cyndar]] has this problem in ''VideoGame/DragonRage''.
* ''VideoGame/LaMulana''. In UpdatedRerelease on WiiWare, character's head indeed is smaller compared to {{Retraux}}-PC-MSX version due to having more pixels (480p/480i on Wii vs. 240p on pseudo-MSX).
* Apparent in the original ''SuperMarioBros'' when grabbing a [[strike: Magic]] Super mushroom. Mario's proportions change by head getting smaller relative to body. Even more pronounced in ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros2''.
** According to the developers of ''VideoGame/DonkeyKong'', most of Mario's facial features and his overalls were due to technical limitations at the time of its release.
* ''VideoGame/BlasterMaster'' games where in-game, main character's head is about as big as the rest of the body.
* ''VideoGame/{{Psychosomnium}}''. Everyone has really big, rectangular heads on tiny bodies; one character even looks like they should, by all logic, fall over from the sheer proportional weight of their cranium.
* The original ''VideoGame/MegaMan'' series. Apparent when it reached its 7th installment, especially by comparison with ''VideoGame/MegaManX''.
** And mimicked in the doujin ''{{Rosenkreuzstilette}}''.
* Averted in the NES versions of the ''{{Contra}}''. The 8-bit hardware couldn't replicate the distinct character designs that were given to Bill and Lance in the original arcade version, so instead the designers concentrated on making them both into musclebound shirtless commandos, with the colors of their pants being the only difference.
* The NES version of ''VideoGame/LodeRunner'' uses the same sprites that Hudson Soft would later use in ''Bomberman''. Most computer versions, however, averted this, having sprites more reminiscent of stick figures.
* ''Franchise/{{Disgaea}}'', SuperDeformed as in-game characters, relatively normal in portraits in cutscenes.
** Downplayed in ''VideoGame/{{Disgaea 4| A Promise Unforgotten}}'', due to the new high definition sprites allowing for much more detail on the characters, though the body proportions are still a bit off in the case of the humanoid characters.
* ''AttoutekiYuugiMugenSouls'' has every character appear like this in game and during cutscenes that use the in-game model.
* Seen in-game in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'': Overworld/dungeon/towns use SuperDeformed models to keep the polygon count down. Battles and [=FMVs=] [[note]](well, most of them: some [=FMVs=] superimposed the low-polygon models, while some rare [=FMVs=] made by a different team used prerendered versions thereof, such as Cloud's TrainEscape early in the game)[[/note]] use realistic models.
** See also ''every Franchise/FinalFantasy game that uses 2D sprites''. ''VI'' and the PSP version of ''IV'', like the ''Chrono Trigger'' example below, are slightly more proportionate, but it's still very noticeable.
* ''VideoGame/ChronoTrigger'' is a less egregious example than most; the game's sprites are fairly proportionate except for the heads (some enemies are closer to reality there, but they're bigger). Portraits are still done in a radically different style.
* The ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'' series probably followed this trope from its early days on the GameBoy but have since taken the concept to heart, with only a few exceptions (''VideoGame/ShinSuperRobotWars'' and both versions of ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsGaiden''). This is used to keep the sizes of the varying HumongousMecha reasonable. For example, a [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Zaku II]] is 17.5 meters tall, while [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Eva Unit-01]] is about 70 meters tall. Though it should be noted that when attack animations go into a close-up of the robot, they're in their proper proportions.
** The series usually uses proper proportions when it duplicates iconic footage from a robot's original series.
* ''VideoGame/HalfMinuteHero'' plays this straight.
* ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia'' has a bit of this, much like the ''FFVII'' example. It's not nearly as extreme as it would be with 2D sprites, but in portraits, anime cutscenes, and the OVA, the art is definitely more realistically proportioned than the [[CelShading cel-shaded]] gameplay models.
* Some ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' games have this; the portable games started out this way but grew less top-heavy as hardware power increased (''VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite'' are the most proportionate so far sprite-wise, although this trope is still in effect; the difference between fully-proportioned and super-deformed character is even more subtle in ''VideoGame/PokemonXAndY''). The console games don't use this at all, though.
** In fact, all of the games introduce you to your character's in-game battle sprite, and signal the start of gameplay by the sprite morphing into the smaller in-game sprite.
* ''VideoGame/GoldenSun'' has all the characters appear to be as big as ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' characters are on the SNES, but once a battle starts, everyone appears in proper proportions and looks. This is more evident in ''GoldenSunDarkDawn'' where the characters look a LOT younger than how they appear in their artwork due to using low polygons in the overworld maps and the new graphics style. However, they resemble their artwork appearance more closely once they enter a battle.
* Most character sets created for non-3D RPGMaker video games are this, especially when they're made to resemble anime or film characters.
* The first four ''VideoGame/DragonSlayer'' games, through ''LegacyOfTheWizard'', had all character sprites fit the size of a single tile. ''Sorcerian'' moved away from SuperDeformed sprites, but ''The Legend of Heroes'' brought the look back.
* The ''{{Lunar}}'' games featured super-deformed character sprites until ''VideoGame/LunarDragonSong''.
* ''[[http://chrontendo.blogspot.com/2009/08/why-must-everybody-laugh-at-my-mighty.html Indora no Hikari]]'', a Famicom game by Kemco, has the hero's in-game sprite looking more SuperDeformed and less BadAss than his depiction on the cover.
* In ''VideoGame/{{Faria}}'', characters have super-deformed sprites that stay within size limits, but they are drawn with more normal proportions in dialogue windows.
* ''VideoGame/LufiaTheLegendReturns'', despite being a Game Boy Color RPG, averts this...by giving party members' portraits eyes that take up most of their face. It looks...a little creepy.
[[folder: Simulation]]
* ''VideoGame/HarvestMoon'' games usually have this style to varying degrees. It's most noticeable in ''VideoGame/{{Harvest Moon 64}}'' and ''VideoGame/HarvestMoonBackToNature'', where the characters are styled as super-deformed due to hardware limitations but their character sprites have their normal designs.
[[folder:Turn Based Strategy]]
* ''BattleForWesnoth'', where CharacterPortrait[=s=] are done in a realistically proportioned style, while sprites are much more cartoony.
* Creator/BallyMidway's ''[[Pinball/MrAndMrsPacManPinball Mr. & Mrs. Pac-Man Pinball]]'' goes as far as this trope can get, reducing Pac-Man and a Ghost to ''flashing lights''.
[[folder:Visual Novel]]
* The {{Utawarerumono}} VisualNovel does this during the battle segments.
* Oddly enough for a webcomic, ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' has this. Being an adventure game / RPG pastiche, the art for the [[KidHero main characters]] consists of copy/pasted "sprites" about knee high to most adult characters. However, when depicted in hand-drawn action shots, they suddenly gain much more realistic proportions, sometimes even lapsing into NoodlePeople. An excellent demonstration of the style is [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003541 this animation from the fourth act.]] (Warning: sound.)

Venison with Apple and Daylily Jelly
Recipe courtesy Chez L'Epicier
- 1 teaspoon thinly sliced tarragon
- 1 teaspoon Apple and Daylily Jelly
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 8 ounces venison fillet
- Salt and pepper
- 1 teaspoon butter
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Mix the tarragon, jelly, and mustard together. Season the venison with salt and pepper. Pan-fry the seasoned venison in the butter until golden brown on 1 side, about 4 minutes. Turn the venison over and put in the oven for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and turn the oven on broil. Slice the venison horizontally and open it like a book, spread the jelly mixture on both sides. Brown top under broiler for 2 minutes and serve.

"Take a Chance on Me", "SOS" and "Dancing Queen" are just three of the ABBA classics performed in "Mamma Mia!", the smash hit that has now seen by more than 50 million people around the globe. We have negotiated an exclusive offer for Travelzoo subscribers that brings the cost of tickets down to £29.50 each -- that's 29% off the usual price.
This deal is valid for third-price tickets in the Stalls, Dress Circle and Grand Circle on Monday-Thursday performances until 2 May at London's Novello Theatre. The price already includes booking fees, so there is nothing extra to pay.
We have also secured a deal for second-price tickets to see "Mamma Mia!" on the same dates. Worth £66, they are now £39.50 each, saving you 40%.
About the show: Made into a blockbuster film in 2008, the musical began its life in the West End back in 1999 and has since become a global phenomenon. Set on a Greek island, it tells the story of bride-to-be Sophie, who, on the eve of her wedding, starts a haphazard quest to discover the identity of her real dad. We've seen the show (many times) and it's an evening of laughter, friendship and, best of all, fantastic ABBA songs!
Excludes performances on 1-11 April.
Travelzoo tip: If you're planning to see "Mamma Mia!" this month, this deal from West End restaurant Little Sicily is ideal for a pre-theatre meal. A short walk from the Novello Theatre, Little Sicily is offering two courses for £10, seven days a week until 31 March.

Crow ready to tour
Sheryl Crow is ready to tour again - just weeks after being diagnosed with breast cancer.The 'If It Makes You Happy' rocker had to cancel a slew of dates after finding out she had the life threatening condition - but insists the show must go on.
In a statement on her website - sherylcrow.com - she said: "I am already looking forward to the summer tour.
"It is my favourite time to tour and I feel certain, for me, it will be a celebration every night of how lucky I feel with this life I have been given."
She added: "My intention was to make this my year of firsts. Being diagnosed with cancer was not on my shortlist of things to attempt during 2006 but here it is. It has really presented me with a whole new challenge and that is to stop everything that I'm used to doing and to really show up for myself."
Sheryl confirmed she would play her first gig on June 12 in Indianapolis, with her last show taking place on July 8 at Boston's Fenway Park.
Her statement ended on a positive note, telling fans: "I can't wait to see you guys. Take care... and ladies, don't forget to get your mammograms!"

I thought that the office staff were friendly and professional, and I had a good experience. The apartments we Read Morere pretty average, to be expected I suppose, so I chose "good" over "excellent".

Best meal I ever ate:
Hard to say which was the "best"....I think more than anything it's a combo of the food and the ambiance....my mood...the people I'm with. I've had some of my best meals at home alone...where I spend a weekend day cooking, then I sit down to savor the meal while watching a movie. I've had some great meals alone in restaurants, where I ended up having a wonderful conversation with a stranger.
My current drink of choice:
Depends...red wine, prosecco, or lite beer...
My favorite comfort food:
Soul food, homemade soup...
My top 5 favorite restaurants:
In Manhattan - Caravan of Dreams, Charles' Southern Style Kitchen, Rainbow Room (for brunch), Onigashima, Molyvos

A hot plate is the perfect compromise for foodservice establishments that would like to cook a variety of soups and sauces, but do not require a full-size range that will be utilized constantly throughout the day. The Restaurant Series 24" Hot Plate (VCRH24) from Vulcan-Hart is perfect for such applications, as it takes up a relatively small amount of space and its stainless steel construction and cast iron top grates can handle the task of cooking a large stock pot full of soup or stew without difficulty. The hot plate features four 25,000-BTU open burners with individual infinite control valves and a full-width crumb tray for easy cleaning.

Being a celebrity is probably the closest to being a beautiful woman as you can get. - Kevin Costner
Every year, Maxim comes out with a list of Hot 100 and this year is no different. Here, we take a look at the beauty secrets of a few beauties featured in the Maxim Hot 100 list for 2014.
#1: Candice Swapenoel
Candice Swapenoel considers sun protection as the most important part of her beauty regime. She always carries her face wash, toner, moisturiser, sunscreen and body oil wherever she travels and whenever she goes to the ocean, she uses different oils and conditioning creams on her hair. She also tries to breaks from make-up so as to let her skin breathe. The key to her beautiful figure, she says, is squats.
#2: Scarlett Johansson
Scarlett Johansson's beauty regime includes removing her makeup before going to sleep, using a hydrating mask once a week, drinking lots of water, cleansing her face with apple cider vinegar, using honey as a facemask, soaking in a long bath with lavender oil, and her favourite product is Cellular Lip Treatment balm from Kanebo Sensai.
#3: Katy Perry
Every celeb has their beauty secrets and so does Katy Perry. Katy Perry said, "The right fragrance can leave a lasting impression and bring out a crazy confidence inside you." She believes that it is okay to colour your hair and that sleeping, steaming, hydrating and drinking tons of green tea are part of her skin care necessities.
#4: Irina Shayk
Irina Shayk said, "It's very important to me to keep my skin fresh, especially since I live in New York, which is very dusty." She washes her face three times a day with Cetaphil facewash. She uses coconut oil to take off her make-up. To unblock clogged pores, she goes into the Russian stam room. She also suggests not using the same cream for more than 10 days because then the skin will get used to it. She believes that raw diet helps maintain her figure and she goes on this diet a couple of days a month.
#5: Jennifer Lawrence
Jennifer Lawrence said, "I'm miserable when I'm dieting and I like the way I look. I'm really sick of all these actresses looking like birds. I'd rather look a little chubby on camera and look like a person in real life, than to look great onscreen and look like a scarecrow in real life." The star does not believe in fad diets. Instead she turns to anti-bloating foods like lean turkey, asparagus and lots of water. She also loves her tea and is a big fan of chamomile and dandelion tea. To keep fit, she does a lot of stretching, yoga and pilates.
