- Afghan Red
Afghan Red: Garnet
A wide range of captivating shades designed to provide the look and style the color dictates. Lipstick available in three formulas:
Satin - moist, longwearing lipstick containing micro-bubble spheres to continually release lip conditioners which yield creamy, silky color that wears for hours.
Semi-Matte - A highly pigmented matte, non-drying formula that provides a longwearing, full-bodied, velvety finish.
Sheer - long lasting color pigments have been suspended in this translucent formula to provide a sheer, natural tint.
Once you start wearing NARS lipstick, you won't want to wear anything else.
NARS Cosmetics, Inc.
Once the lips have been defined with appropriate lip liner, use the Lip Brush to apply lipstick to the lip. Using the Lip Brush will provide control and aid in blending.
Applying the lipstick directly from the tube will allow a richer application of color. For more of a matte finish and to remove excess product, place tissue over the lips and gently smooth finger over the lips.
For Extra Long Lasting Color: Define and fill in entire lip with lip liner. Apply lip color directly from tube. Using only a single ply of tissue place tissue over the lips. Using a powder puff or sponge, pat loose powder over the lips to set. Reapply lipstick.
Full Looking Lips: Add Lip Gloss or Lip Lacquer just in the center of the bottom lip and at the bow of the top lip.

He completed a Pharmacy Practice Residency at the University of Arizona/University Medical Center in 1996. He was a Professor of Pharmacy Practice and a Regional Clerkship Coordinator for the University of the Pacific School of Pharmacy from 1996-99.

Jay W. Marks, MD
Jay W. Marks, MD, is a board-certified internist and gastroenterologist. He graduated from Yale University School of Medicine and trained in internal medicine and gastroenterology at UCLA/Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
STORAGE: Tablets should be stored at room temperature, 15-30 C (59-86 F).
PRESCRIBED FOR: Risedronate is used for the treatment of Paget's disease of bone (osteitis deformans), treatment and prevention of postmenopausal osteoporosis in women, and treatment of osteoporosis in men. It also is used to prevent and treat osteoporosis caused by steroid medications (glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis).
Risedronate should be taken with 6 to 8 ounces of plain water. Because food interferes with the absorption of risedronate, it should be taken first thing in the morning before anything is eaten or liquids consumed. Also, no food or drink should be taken for at least 30 minutes after taking risedronate. To avoid pills sticking and irritating the throat or esophagus, persons should not lie down for at least 30 minutes after taking risedronate. It also should not be taken at the same time as iron supplements, vitamins with minerals, or antacids containing calcium, magnesium, or aluminum which reduce the absorption of risedronate.
DRUG INTERACTIONS: Food, calcium, antacids, and medications containing iron, magnesium, or aluminum reduce the absorption of risedronate, resulting in loss of effectiveness. Thus, it should be taken with plain water only.
PREGNANCY: The safety and effectiveness of risedronate has not been established in pregnant women. Physicians must therefore weigh the potential benefits and unknown risks carefully.
NURSING MOTHERS: The safety of risedronate for the infant has not been established in women who breastfeeding.
SIDE EFFECTS: The most common side effects of risedronate are headache, joint pain, diarrhea, abdominal pain, rash, high blood pressure, and nausea. Severe irritation of the esophagus (for example, esophagitis, esophageal ulcers, esophageal erosions) can occur. This occurs more often when patients do not drink enough water with risedronate, or do not wait 30 minutes before lying down. Rarely, patients may experience jaw problems (osteonecrosis of the jaw) associated with delayed healing and infection after tooth extraction.

RALEIGH — Duke wasn't likely to go through the season unbeaten anyway, but a loss never settles well with the Blue Devils.
Now there's a blemish on Duke's record, a perfect half-season devoured by North Carolina State — if not snatched away like one of Richard Howell's rebounds.
The 84-76 result came with disturbing elements for the top-ranked Blue Devils at PNC Arena.
They'll go back and hash those out, count the number of available heads for the next game and move on into the unknown.
It's no surprise that N.C. State is pretty good. For Duke, that's part of the price for going through an Atlantic Coast Conference schedule. Given the big picture, N.C. State should have won Saturday afternoon's game in the role of conference preseason favorite.
But Duke did so much in November and December that the possibilities were overwhelming. Even trailing throughout the second half didn't serve as a deterrent.
"It's a different way to play," Duke forward Mason Plumlee said, noting the half-long deficit. "We've been in close games, so I thought we'd handle that situation better."
The Blue Devils were trying to get a grip on things without third-leading scorer Ryan Kelly, who missed his first full game with a foot injury that will sideline him indefinitely. And by the end, guard Seth Curry, too, was a spectator, out with an ankle injury that sidelined him for the final three minutes, though initial reports from Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski don't suggest it's a serious ailment.
Despite all this, Duke was serious about winning. With boosts from Josh Hairston and Amile Jefferson, the Blue Devils were right there within striking distance.
"Whenever they looked like they were going to knock us out, we came back," Krzyzewski said.
Not all the way back. Not with the group on the court. That group might be capable sometime soon to navigate such a difficult situation, but not yet.
Krzyzewski had been asked recently about what it would take for a team to go undefeated through the season. He seemed to harp on the health issue, almost as if he knew something in advance of the past week.
"We're not a great team with Ryan, we're a really good team," Krzyzewski said after Saturday's game. "But we're better than our parts when we have them all together."
Duke never lost an ACC road game last season, so for some team members this was new territory. The Blue Devils didn't play in Raleigh last year, either.
Plumlee looked hesitant at times, fully aware that foul trouble would be devastating without Kelly's support. Plumlee said he mistimed a few rebounding efforts, giving Howell more openings. Krzyzewski said Plumlee, who was the only player on either team to be on the court for the full 40 minutes, played great, so there must have been other issues.
Among those would be defensive breakdowns and freshman guard Rasheed Sulaimon's 0-for-10 shooting from the field.
It wasn't until shortly after the howling had subsided inside the arena that N.C. State senior Scott Wood acknowledged that the conquest had a certain hollow element. Wood didn't quite categorize the outcome as the greatest conquering since he had been on board with the Wolfpack.
"It's tough because they're not 100 percent, so it's tough to say it's the greatest," Wood said.
The good thing for the Wolfpack is that there could be more notable accomplishments this season, so that the memories of a riveting mid-January result serve as only a footnote and not the end-all.
That, too, could prove to be the way it is for Duke. While momentum for a season can be generated through the opening months, it's what the Blue Devils do in March — and maybe a tad bit with a Feb. 7 rematch in Durham — that will be most significant.
What was discovered is that Duke can compete with a makeshift group. Still to be determined is if the Blue Devils can excel with this arrangement.

Keroro is Sergeant Frog, the leader of a platoon of warriors sent to conquer planet Earth. But when the amphibious invaders discovered how much humans enjoy dissecting their comrades, the troops were scattered, the mission was aborted, and Keroro was abandoned. Now, this once proud soldier spends more time wielding a vacuum than he does the weapons of war.
It's a far cry from the glory of battle, but hey, at least he's got his own room. And though the invasion may have slowed to a hop, Sergeant Frog still occasionally yearns to overcome his karaoke addiction and reassemble his troops. Watch out world, the frogs are taking over!

Heart Failure and Biventricular Pacemakers
Biventricular Pacemaker Introduction
A biventricular pacemaker is a special pacemaker used for cardiac resynchronization therapy in heart failure patients.
In the normal heart, the heart's lower chambers (ventricles) pump at the same time and in sync with the heart's upper chambers (atria). When a person has heart failure, often the right and left ventricles do not pump together. When the heart's contractions become out of sync, the left ventricle is not able to pump enough blood to the body. This eventually leads to an increase in heart failure symptoms, such as shortness of breath, dry cough, swelling in the ankles or legs, weight gain, increased urination, fatigue, or rapid or irregular heartbeat.
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), also called biventricular pacing, uses a special kind of pacemaker, called a biventricular pacemaker, designed to treat the delay in heart ventricle contractions. It keeps the right and left ventricles pumping together by sending small electrical impulses through the leads. This therapy has been shown to improve the symptoms of heart failure and the person's overall quality of life.
What Is a Biventricular Pacemaker?
Leads are implanted through a vein into the right ventricle and into the coronary sinus vein to pace or regulate the left ventricle. Usually (but not always), a lead is also implanted into the right atrium. This helps the heart beat in a more balanced way.
Traditional pacemakers are used to treat slow heart rhythms. Pacemakers regulate the right atrium and right ventricle to maintain a good heart rate and keep the atrium and ventricle working together. This is called AV synchrony. Biventricular pacemakers add a third lead to help the left ventricle contract at the same time as the right ventricle.

BEST: Milla Jovovich looked gorgeous in emerald green at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2011 in Berlin.
BEST: Ewan McGregor was definitely the BOSS at an event for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in Berlin, looking perfectly summery rocking a lavender shirt under a light grey suit.
WORST: Beth Ditto definitely overloaded on the maroon with this getup. The lead singer of The Gossip attended the Thomas Sabo Collection Launch in London, wearing a bit too much of the dark color with purple shoes.
BEST: Piper Perabo (best known for her role in Coyote Ugly) ravished in red at a screening and reception for Covert Affairs at the Soho House in NYC.
WORST: With all the money Shaq makes, you would think he could afford real shoes to wear to a press conference. The giant baller attended a press conference in Las Vegas wearing bedroom slippers with a shiny blue ensemble.
BEST: Gwyneth Paltrow looked sensationally summery, adding awesome accessories like a blue monogrammed Goyard bag and Givenchy sandals to casually chic duds.
BEST: Ciara enjoyed a day of shopping at Barneys New York in Beverly Hills, rocking a studded backpack, which was far from elementary.
BEST: Nicole Scherzinger showed off her covetable curves in a sophisticatedly styled pencil dress at the X Factor auditions in Manchester.
WORST: We were on the fence about Claire Forlani's embroidered gown, but the fact that it was an inch too short, docked her a few points. The beautiful actress was attending the Serpentine Gallery Summer Party in London.
BEST: Nicola Peltz looked beautiful in blue and black at a Parisian photocall for The Last Airbender.
WORST: The pattern is bad enough on Kristen Bell's Darker Side of Green debate series dress, but how about that painfully shredded hemline?

WORST: Only Lady Gaga would walk the streets of NYC dressed to work the corner!
BEST: Gretchen Rossi radiated in red at the Darker Side of Green debate series. Her sculpted red mini featured embellished straps.

WORST: Shauna Sands has definitely met her a la mode match! The boisterous blonde was spotted out in Hollywood with a dud who dressed equally as awful as her.
BEST: Ashley Tisdale rocked Nicole Richie's Winter Kate wrap, while running errands in Los Angeles.
WORST: Spanish actress Paz de la Huerta looked a bit worst for wear, ironically walking the red carpet of the NYC premiere of Time For Change.
WORST: Jayde Nicole looked like she was waiting for the school bus, dressed in juvenile duds outside of a Los Angeles restaurant.
WORST: We sort of love Kelly Rippa's tie-dye dress, but it didn't suit the super skinny talk show host.

WORST: When wearing spandex pants, please wear a longer shirt Angel McCord! AnnaLynne's less famous sis enjoyed a night out in Los Angeles looking not-so-haute in an unfortunately unflattering ensemble!

At the ASPCA, we have nothing but love for the members of our Foster Care Program. These generous, kind-hearted people open their homes to young, sick, or small animals that are not yet ready for permanent placement, and give them love and comfort until they're ready to move on. So when we heard about Leia, a tiny kitten who won the heart of her foster mom, we had a feeling she was something special. We tracked down Emily H. to find out just how Leia went from temporary resident to full-time family member. Here is their very Happy Tail.
"When I first met Leia, she was so tiny," recalls Emily. "She was smaller than her littermates, Han Solo and Padme, and she wouldn't eat." An expert foster mom, Emily syringe-fed Leia baby food for a week to help her gain some weight and find her appetite. The Force must have been strong back then, as the intimate feeding experience bonded the two in a way that Emily could not deny. "When the other foster kitties went back to the shelter to find their forever homes, I already knew that Leia's forever home was with us."
In the year since her adoption, Leia has grown into a perfect pet. Thanks to Emily's persistence, the teeny kitten mastered the art of eating—in fact, Emily is thinking it might be time to cut back! She is so curious and playful that it's almost easy to forget how timid and small she once was.
A true testament to the power of fostering, Emily left us with an encouraging message. "Shelters are full of beautiful cats with incredible personalities, and I cannot recommend the foster program enough. Your new best friend might be waiting for you right now at the ASPCA!"
For more information on Fostering, please visit the ASPCA Foster Program Page. To submit your own Happy Tail, email [email protected] and we might feature it on the blog!

What a teeny-tiny, sweet little kitten and what a gorgeous, majestic girl Leia has grown into! Thank you, Emily, for fostering and adopting this glorious pussycat.You and your Leia are both angels!
Oh my goodness, this brings just joy to my heart and i hope all blessings to Emily and her family this day forward. It's people like her that restore my faith in the two-legged animals. I wish I could do more than just supoort the ASPCA for my love for animals is what keeps me sane and stories like this happy
This story just made my day! She is a beauty and reminds me a lot of one I lost not to long ago. You are a hero!
What a pretty girl Leia is. Bless you for letting her into your home and heart.
Please go on facebook and find the video of broad throwing puppies into river and get this person arrested if anyone knows her Imagine if someone had not given this baby the love she deserves
i saw that one; i think it was in a european country; this said female was laughing and giggling all the while throwing the puppies into the water; what a sick mind!
Which video was this?I live in Belgium and would like to know .So far It is not here as there has not been reporting.I know we would get after that bitch fast.I can't believe it how cruel that is.An evil bitch does this,dangerous with kids too I guess!;
Was it the video from a few years ago? If it was, I think they caught that girl.
My belief is this.... What you inflict on an innocent animal is what your destiny is and what you should be inflicted on you.. - i would be the first to push her in the river.

Tusculum Gets Revenge in 27-7 Thumping over Falcon Baseball; Pou Extends Hit Streak to 31
March 30, 2010
Story Courtesy of Tusculum Sports Information
GREENEVILLE, TN - The Tusculum College baseball team established five school records as the Pioneers thwarted visiting Pfeiffer University, 27-7 Tuesday night at Pioneer Park. Tusculum (20-13) posts its sixth consecutive victory and 11th in the last 12 games as the Pioneers avenge last months 22-6 loss to the Falcons. TC established school team marks for runs scored (27), hits (26), RBI (26) and double plays turned (3). For a third straight game, all nine offensive starters recorded a hit for the Pioneers. Tusculum also posted its fourth straight game with 20 or more hits and ninth in row with at least 10 hits.
Sean Finucane went 5-for-5, including two home runs and a career-best six RBI. Nate Grabowski was also perfect at the plate with his 4-for-4 performance. Both seniors scored five runs each to tie a Tusculum single-game mark.
Tusculum erupted for a dozen runs in the first inning as the Pioneers used eight hits and four Pfeiffer errors as TC sent 17 batters to the plate. Jared Richmond got things started, as he went the opposite way as he homered down the left field line with a man aboard to put TC ahead, 2-0. It was his 15th homer of the season and 26th of his Tusculum career, which ties him for third-most all-time with former All-American Guy OConnell (2003-04). It was also Richmonds only hit of the night to extend his hitting streak to 14 in a row.
The Falcons (18-21) finished with 12 hits on the evening, including Eric Shoemakers 3-for-3 effort, while Josh Strickland, Will Davis and Hunter Boehme each recorded multi-hit performances for the visitors. Pfeiffers Zack Pou recorded a sharp single in the sixth inning to extend his hitting streak to 31 straight games.
Sean Cotten, the South Atlantic Conference Player of the Week, extended his hitting streak to 12 in a row, as he went 2-for-4 with a RBI, while Rolondo Bonner went 3-for-4 with three RBI. Eric Barclay and Payden Houser added two hits each in the victory.
Tusculum starter Jason Gardner (3-1) earned the win as he went seven innings where he allowed eight hits, three runs, a walk and posted three strikeouts.

Nikon 24-120mm f/4G ED VR AF-S Nikkor review by VS

Film format. Beautiful rich color. Large focal range with acceptable quality. Good sharpness, small curvature of the image field for zoom. Diaphragm 9 rounded petals, good bokeh for zoom. Easy, fast and accurate focusing. Excellent mechanical quality.
Traditional disadvantages to such a range zoom: - A slight drop on the field at the corners extreme focal lengths at the aperture (disappears when you close diaframy per division); - Noticeable distortion at wide angle.
Recently bought a Nikon 24-70mm f / 2.8G IF-ED AF-S. Took off at home, tested and passed back to the store. Heavy enough for a small range of focal lengths. No stabilizer, poor mechanics. Most chromatics and poor bokeh for the declared class lenses. But, more importantly, in this instance at 24mm in the right upper quadrant (2/3 from the center), a small soap stain with 35mm it is amplified and creeps into the lower left quadrant, and so on up to the upper sector. Previously, six years ago, I saw the test photos with this lens, then I did not like. I thought that Nikon over the years to finalize it, but it appears not.
Also tested as Sigma 24-105mm f / 4 DG OS HSM - did not like the unstable focus and blur too large angles.
And did not like the Sigma 24-70mm F / 2.8 EX DG HSM - working aperture with only 5.6.
Nikon 24-120mm f / 4G ED VR AF-S is developed and released in 2010, taking into account the shortcomings of previous and the application of new achievements. Focal range of the lens very necessary for photographers, but also very difficult for developers optics. Difficult because of the contradictions - wide angle and portrait lens, it's hard to get a good picture. Ideally you should use multiple lenses - wide-angle and portrait.
I liked the lens. In my opinion - he is the best and most successful in this range of the Nikon for the entire foreseeable future developments.
Wonderful enlightenment using nanocrystalline coating creates a rich color and excellent contrast even in backlit.
Bokeh is quite decent for a given focal length range.
Figure sufficiently sharp to the image field, but there is a slight blur in the corners (24mm and 120mm), which disappears with the closing of the aperture to 5.6.
Small chromatic automatically removes the camera.
Distortion and vignetting can adjust the camera or converter.
Autofocus is fast, accurate and quiet. On the D750 works well in automatic mode, under certain skills almost without errors.
Mechanics reliable, zumm works without backlash, and falls under the slopes, there is a protection against splashes and rain. Weight little too big (670g), but tolerable, adds some stabilization when shooting. The diameter of the filter thread convenient, standard, 77 mm.
Shooting this lens is not a problem, quite quickly, efficiently and enjoyable.
The most convenient and efficient lens. For reports, landscapes and travel is indispensable!

VR II, sharpness, great walk around lens
Too much plastic
I only hope this lens lasts the distance for being compromised with too much plastic but that is no to say I am not impressed with its image quality which is sharp from corner to corner at every aperture at every focal length. My only worry is I am afraid I will wear this lens out pretty soon by loving it to death for its sharpness and wearing out the plastic zoom adjustment ring. The barrel distortion is pretty strong at 24mm but it is very simple and can be corrected in a few clicks with a mouse by Photoshop

sharp at f4, very sharp at 5.6 and above, good contrast and colors
Light falloff is too high
I use this lens with my Nikon D700 for landscapes and people photography. Sharpness is very good at the centre wide open between 24 and 85 mm but only acceptable at 120mm. Unlike slrgear I could not detect any drop in performance at 85mm and f4. The borders are slightly soft at f4. Stopped down to f5.6 the sharpness constantly improves up to f11. Distorsions are strong but easy to correct either in Capture NX or in LR and PS. The only thing that bothers me ist the extreme light falloff which is so strong that even Caputre NX cannot remove it. Fortunately the light falloff is gone when stopped down to f11. Build quality is very good. AF ist fast, silent and accurate. VR works as advertised. All in all I'm very satisfied with the performance of this lens

Nikon knew what they wanted with this lens considering its predecessor and competion (24-70f/2.8)
Barrel distortion & vigetting that is easily correctable in software
NOTE: This review is applicable to FX Format!
I ruminated for months before deciding to sell my precious 24-70f/2.8 to finance this lens.
You see, I have a need and a passion for the 24-120 focal length, and Nikon's FX offering was the 24-120 f/3.5-5.6...a lens which I owned for a time and found wanting.
So, I researched the web, tried the 24-120f/4 lens in a local store on my D3s and took the photos home and picked them apart.
After a week of ownership I can say that I made the right decision...for ME. That extra 50mm on the long end has made my 24-70 just a pleasant memory.
This lens is SHARP...you'll read about softness and vignetting in the corners wide open, and barrel distortion at 24mm. Yes, it's true...but these flaws can be corrected in software easily. Color and contrast easily rivals my 24-70.
With a camera like the D3s, the f/4 constant aperture is no issue. I shoot at night as I did with the 24-70 f/2.8.
Overall, I believe this lens is a winner. Nikon put the good stuff where it needs to be to become a good compromise on quality, performance AND affordability.
If money is no object, by all means get BOTH the 24-70 AND this 24-120! LOL!!!
Had I been able to keep my 24-70 and get the 24-120 I probably would have. But after a week of using this lens for the type of shooting I do, I have a feeling that the fine 24-70 f/2.8 would have gotten a lot of shelf time...not the place for a superb lens like that to be.
A note on the SLRGear review: It's generally spot-on in my view and one of the first reviews I read prior to purchase. It was quite helpful to me. One minor point: Try as I might, I haven't yet seen the CA that is mentioned...perhaps I haven't hit just the right conditions yet...I rarely shoot wide-open in bright sunlight where this aberration would be found. It's worth noting that the SLRGear review mentions that CA is better-controlled than in the 24-70 f/2.8.

Sharp, practical zoom range, brilliant photos
I have bought in December 2010 my 24-120mm lens, went on vacation… and was fully disappointed from the image quality. It was unsharp and lusterless; in addition it had a back focus.
Nikon service had repaired the lens twice with the final conclusion: 'fully in norm'. But my old cheap 16-85 was much, much better...
After a long battle I return the lens back and it was replaced by the local dealer.
The new lens is almost perfect! It delivers sharp and brilliant photos throughout the whole zoom range.
I am happy now.

Scary sharp wide open, superb flare/ghost resistance, accurate AF, great color rendition
Build quality could be better, slight zoom creep, expensive
I bought this lens to replace the 18-200 VR on a D7000. It has not disappointed. It is in a different league than the 18-200 VR. This is what I find:
1) This lens is absolutely tack sharp wide open throughout the entire zoom range. No need to stop down at either end. So it is truly usable at f/4.
2) Contrast and color rendition is fantastic wide open -- images just pop out rather than look flat. Must be the nano-crystal coating.
3) I've never experienced a lens so resistant to flare and ghosting. You can pretty much leave the hood at home. Truly fantastic. Great lens for sunset shots or bright outdoor (although the D7000 tends to overexpose in high contrast scenes.)
4) AF accuracy is very, very good. Dead on, actually. AF speed is not lightning quick like the pro Nikon lens with metal bodies (e.g. 24-70, 70-200), but still very quick. I have no problem with fast moving subjects like speedboats or motorcycles. AF is totally silent.
5) The focal length is what it is -- this lens doesn't breathe like the 18-200. This is great. I can get pretty damn close (about a foot) and get the magnification close to a macro lens.
6) VR works superbly. Yes it is an f/4, but because it is truly sharp at f/4, you can do 1/4s or 1/8s shutter and have reasonably good night time shots. I don't really miss fast glass with this.
7) 24mm on a DX body is not really wide enough, but good enough for everyday use. For wide angle, I still need a separate lens like the Tokina 11-16. 120mm at the far end is enough for me. This surprised me, as I thought it would come up short.
8) My copy unfortnately has some play in the zoom ring. And it has a little bit of zoom creep (nowhere as bad as the original 18-200 VR). I wish Nikon would have put a zoom lock on this lens.
10) Takes 77mm filter -- great!
11) Lens is big, but feels light. I can have the D7000 with this lens around my neck all day no problem.
12) It is overpriced for the construction. No doubt. This lens should be $1000 or less. Not $1200.
All in all, a truly fantastic walkaround lens. Don't know why it has gotten some bad reviews; my copy is just about perfect. You won't be disappointed on a DX or full frame.

Nikon 24-120mm f/4G ED VR AF-S Nikkor review by Bobcopeland

Very Sharp, convenient size, feels very well engineered
Sharpness: This has been raised as an issue. I went out this morning and took a series of pictures at f4 to f8 around 75 & 85mm. I use a D700 and the results on all pictures were very sharp at the centre and the edge. Viewing the files at 100% on a decent monitor, I could not see any worthwhile difference between f4 or f5.6.
Distortion: It could be better but its not too serious and is easily sorted in Photoshop ot Elements. Its more of an inconveniece which slows down my work flow.
Vignetting: Not brilliant at the wide end but many modern lenses seem to suffer from the same problem. I have to correct this with most of my lenses unless I crop out the centre of the picture. Again this is an easy fix with photoshop or Elements
CA: This could be better but again this is easly dealt with using the tools in ViewNX
Build: the lens feels very well put together with no slackness in either theFront lens tube, zoom or focus rings. To put it in context my 80-200 focus ring feel less well engineered and I know it to be a superb example of this particular lens.
VR2: what can I say, it does exactly what it says on the box.
I use my camera every day for work and pleasure and this lens now stays on for everything except maco or telephoto shots. I had several other lenses which covered similar focal lengths and I have now sold them all. I am very pleased with my lens and it should save me a lot of money in the future as at last I have a lens which does everthing I could realistically expect and I will be keeping it. Yes it does have a few minor issues but they can all be solved with software. In short, a brilliant lens.

sharp in the center of the FF, fast AF , universal range with very effective VR.
horrible distortion in all range, poor build quality with 2 step zooming system,horrible amount of CA , horrible flare resistance, mosterous mount of light falloff.
the build quality of this lens is poor and it is not as sharp as the Nikon 24-70f2.8GED my main lens for my D700 and D7000.
but its AF is very fast and accurate.
There are a few issues with this lens:
1 excessive amount of CA.
2 the worst kind of distortion.
3 the worst lightfall off I have ever seen.
4 its Nano coating is not as good as that of these other Nano coated lenses.
5 it is not as sharp as the 24-70 or 70-200VR2.
So , it is hard to recommend this lens.
I think you better save up a bit longer and get the 24-70 and never look back.

Extremely sharp at all focal lengths, well built,compact
I am using the 24-120mm f4 on a Nikon D300s, and the lens is very sharp at all focal lengths. The lens is definitely in the Nikon professional lens category with typically excellent build quality. I was glad to see that Nikon designed the lens as an f4, as an f2.8 would simply have been too big and totally unnecessary. It is a great lens when traveling light.

SCCA Majors Season Finale Wraps At Gateway On Sunday
MADISON, Ill. (August 4, 2013) – The 2013 SCCA U.S. Majors Tour season ended on Sunday, as seven groups took checkered flags at Gateway Motorsports Park in a combined meet for the Mid-States and Northern Conferences.
Each group ran a 10-lap qualifying race on Sunday morning, with the finishing order setting the grids for the 28-lap, point-paying feature races on Sunday afternoon.
The first group was spread out on the track, but a number of drivers did what they needed to do to clinch Conference Championships.
Bob Schader, in the No. 5 Hoosier Tires/MiataCage.com Mazda Miata, and Greg Vandersluis, in the No. 93 Carbotech/BFGoodrich/Ford Racing/Vandersluis Motorsports Ford Mustang, had already clinched the Mid-States Super Touring Lite and Northern Touring 4 titles, respectively, but both raced off to class wins on Sunday morning.
The weekend sweep by Tommy Boileau, in the No. 43 BimmerHaus/BFGoodrich/Bob Bondurant School of High Performance Driving BMW Z4, clinched the Mid-States Touring 3 title for the 19-year-old. Stan Czacki, in the No. 00 Whitehead/DGI/SchaafAuto/BFG/HPD/Summit/Hawk Acura RSX-S, ran second to Vandersluis to claim the T4 crown in the Mid-States.
A runner-up finish in STL by Bruce Andersen's No. 73 Senson Racing Grp/Autotechnik Racing Mazda Miata, coupled with Saturday's win, kept him in front of Kyle Webb for the Northern Conference title.
For the second consecutive day, Denny Stripling ripped away to a four-plus second win in Spec Racer Ford. His No. 4 Lightspeed Motorsports SRF was the class of the field, turning the race's fastest lap while running alone out front.
Keith Verges, while further back in the field, took care of his own business on Sunday afternoon. Verges was involved in a chain-reaction collision that ended the race of five different cars on Saturday, still needing points to earn the Mid-States Conference Championship. Verges borrowed a car, and then drove the No. 84 Apex Driving Services machine to a steady sixth-place finish to earn points and a crown.
Jim Daniels' No. 86 MazdaRacers.com Mazda Miata broke a control arm on Saturday, but, back in one piece, cruised to a dominating overall and E Production victory in Group 3. Behind him, however, Sam Henry was pushing hard in his F Production No. 37 Springfield Dyno/SafeRacer Mazda Miata, still in the Mid-States Championship hunt.
Henry's title odds fell considerably when he had to change a motor on Saturday, switching to a different car to salvage a seventh-place finish. Henry was back in his car for the win on Sunday, but Eric Prill followed him across the stripe on Sunday with a second place finish in the No. 7 Jesse Prather Motorsports/Hoosier/Hawk/Motul Mazda Miata. With the runner-up, Prill earned the big trophy.
Chris Albin swept the H Production weekend in the No. 3 Hoosier/247-parts.com/AMT Engines Volkwagen GTI and earned enough points for a share of the Mid-States Championship, but the drama came for Aaron Johnson. Johnson needed a finish to earn the Northern Conference Championship, but his No. 87 ReK Racing Triumph Spitfire pulled off track at lap 14. That was the magical halfway point, however, to score points, and Johnson collected his crown.
The single race excitement in the fast open wheel group came early from Jimmy Simpson, before the drama turned to Championship watch. Simpson started from the rear of the field after the gear shift lever in the No. 27 RacePro Marketing Swift/Toyota broke off in his hand on the opening lap of the qualifying race on Sunday morning.
It took just eight laps for Simpson, who lapped the entire field on Saturday, to get into the lead. Once he did, it was smooth sailing.
Five drivers in the group clinched Championships, though, even while Simpson was flying around the track. Richard Colburn clinched the Northern Conference Championship in the No. 97 Amari Metals NosTendo 2 with a win, but the weekend sweep also earned him enough points to share the Mid-States title as well.
In Formula Atlantic, Charles Duncan clinched the Northern Conference with a third-place finish in the No. 98 Circle D Racing Swift 016, and Gaston Kearby clinched the Mid-States title with a fifth in his No. 69 GK Motorsports Pro Star Mazda. Jacek Mucha finished second in class in his No. 01 Swift 016/Mazda, but had enough points to win the Northern Conference C Sports Racing title.
Henry Donohoo secured the Mid-States Formula Enterprises Championship with a win in the No. 10 Mazda of Lakewood/Drone Motorsports Formula Enterprises/Mazda.
Todd Napieralski drove to a very valuable Touring 1 and overall victory in the big bore group, completing a weekend sweep in the No. 3 Total Performance Racing Chevrolet Camaro. With two wins, Napieralski not only cemented the Northern Conference title, but backed into a share of the Mid-States crown as well. Keith Moody drove his No. 01 Bo-Daddy Shrimp/LionShare Marketing/Phoenix Engineering Chevrolet Monte Carlo to two GT-2 wins at Gateway as well, giving him a share of the Mid-States trophy in his class.
Natha Waldbaum swept the weekend in her No. 5 Hutter Performance/Hoosier/VetteSport/HARDBAR USA Chevrolet Corvette to earn her Touring 2 title in the Mid-States. While Chad Bacon swept the event in GT-3 with a pair of wins in the No. 18 FedEx Ground/GoodYear/Toyota TRD Toyota Celica, the Mid-States Championship went to Robert Herman. Herman had a pair of runner-up finishes in the No. 0 Herman Plumbing/Kim's Auto Repair Service Mazda RX-7.
The Spec Miata race mirrored yesterday's, with Jim Drago's No. 2 East Street Racing Mazda Miata moving to the lead with Erik Stearn's No. 97 East Street Racing/Ed's 24 Hour Service/Dick's Auto Salvage Miata in tow. Drago stayed in front for all 28 laps to earn the win and a Mid-States Conference title.
When Michael Novak's No. 9 Roush/Caldwell Race Prep Miata moved around the No. 17 Senson Racing Grp/Autotechnik Racing Miata of Bruce Andersen for third on lap nine with a turn one pass, Novak moved into a season-long tie with Stearns for the Northern Conference lead. The two were declared co-champions with an identical 123 points, two ahead of Andersen in third.
CJ McAbee drove his No. 1 AJ's Import Garage/Hoosier AJ's 2012/Rotax to the overall win, that was only slowed by a black flag with 12 laps left when a Formula 500 machine slid into the tires in turn one. Brothers Cliff Johnson, driving the Formula F No. 4 Alpine Litho-Graphics/Farley Engines Piper DF-5, and Bill Johnson, driving the Formula Vee No. 42 Portable Work Tools, Inc Vortech/Volkswagen, got the jump after the restart and cruised to victory.
Bill Johnson got additional help with leader Brad Stout's No. 35 ACI Distributors Vortech pulled off course just after the restart.
Timothy Friest fell out of the race on lap 20, but managed to salvage third place in his No. 86 XTRacing/RodEndSupply/Mobile Reasoning KBS Mk VII/Rotax, which netted him the Mid-States Formula 500 Conference Championship by two points over second place David Vincent.
Bill Kephart's fourth place Formula F finish in the No. 37 Vestial 10F was enough to nail down his Mid-States Conference title.
The next stop for the Majors Champions, competitors, and all qualified SCCA Club Racers is the 50th SCCA National Championship Runoffs at Road America, September 16-22.

Hero Within - Rev. & Expanded Ed.: Six Archetypes We Live By
Hero Within - Rev. & Expanded Ed.: Six Archetypes We Live By (Paperback)
In 'The Hero with a Thousand Faces', Joseph Campbell introduced readers to the significance of myth and archetype in understanding who we are and how we live our lives. Carol Pearson's best-selling 'The Hero Within' combines literature, anthropology, and psychology to clearly define, with insight and understanding, the six heroic archetypes that exist in all of us. This expanded edition features exercises designed to awaken and illuminate these archetypes so that we may make better sense of ourselves and our life-journeys.
Carol S. Pearson, Ph.D., is the co-author of 'Who Am I This Time?' and 'The Female Hero in American and British Literature' and president of Meristem, a nonprofit organization that offers training in personal and professional growth.
"An excellent and useful book about the course our psychological development can take, with stages represented by common archetypes that most of us know…(Pearson's) is an evolutionary archetypal psychology"
JEAN SHINODA BOLEN, author of 'Goddesses in Everywoman' and 'Gods in Everyman'
"Gives us a vocabulary- Innocent, Orphan, Wanderer, Warrior, Martyr, Magician- to subsume a wide range of patterns of human relationships, both positive and negative. The results are remarkably insightful and self-revelatory…It is a joy to read."
JESSIE BERNARD, author of 'The Female World'

Kevin Reddick has been trying to live a normal life. He's preparing for graduation, working out his free time and raising a three-year old daughter.
This weekend, his life will change with one phone call.
Reddick, a New Bern graduate and former North Carolina inside linebacker, will wait to hear his name called in the National Football League Draft.
"It would definitely be a dream come true, just to be able to play football again," Reddick said. "At the end of the day, that's what I love to do.
"I would love to be able to support my daughter because at the end of the day, that's what this is mostly about. It's about that child I have at home. I want to support her and give her a better life than I ever had."
Reddick said he's been hearing that he could be selected anywhere from the second to the fourth round.
The draft begins with the first round at 8 p.m. on Thursday. The second and third rounds will be on Friday, while the final four rounds will be on Saturday.
Reddick is the 10th best linebacker prospect in the draft, according to scouts and analysts for NFL.com.
"I'm not nervous. I just try to pray," Reddick said. "I pray for patience to stay sane and to stay humble. I never get down and I'm not really nervous about the situation because whatever happens is going to happen.
"I just want to get on a team and get into an organization and get my foot in the door, then I can do the rest."
Reddick will spend Friday with friends and family in New Bern while waiting for that phone call from an NFL organization.
"It's definitely going to be an exciting moment," he said. "I'm really going to be in my zone waiting to hear my name called. Then after that, I will definitely celebrate with my family and coaches."
Reddick said he's worked out with the Carolina Panthers and Chicago Bears, and has spoken with other teams in the league.
No matter where he winds up, he is willing to do what it takes to make it on a roster.
"I'm going to be physical, show my leadership and be smart out there," Reddick said. "I'm going to try and learn the defense as soon as I get in and be another piece to the puzzle.
"I'm going to try and fit myself in and help the team win games."
Reddick hasn't played in a football game since the Senior Bowl in January. He was invited to the NFL Combine in Indianapolis in early March, and then showed off for scouts, coaches and general managers at UNC's Pro Timing Day in late March.
The 6-foot-3, 240-pound former Tar Heel defensive captain ran the 40-yard dash in 4.72 seconds. He bench-pressed 225 pounds 23 times and leapt 113 inches in the broad jump.
Reddick had 85 tackles (49 solo) and 6.5 sacks last season.
"Any organization that chooses me, they are going to get a well-rounded football player" Reddick said. "I'm a football player. I want to go out there and help my teammates win championships.
"At the end of the day, it's about winning championships and that's what I want to do."
Reddick could be the fourth football player from Craven County to be selected in the NFL Draft in the past five years.
New Bern Davon Drew was picked in the fifth round by the Baltimore Ravens in 2009; New Bern's Montario Hardesty was taken by the Cleveland Browns in the second round of the 2010 draft; Havelock's Bruce Carter was chosen by the Dallas Cowboys in the second round of the 2011 draft.

Hello everyone, I have attempted to retrieve records a few times from Arquata del Tronto and have been unsuccessful. Would anyone have any other suggestions?
My great grandfather Lewis Laurie, seems to have a birthdate of August 1882 in Arquata del Tronto and my grandmother may have been married there in an arranged marriage, from what I have been told. My great grandathers parents might have been Vincenzo Lauri and Filomena Santolini. These are from very vague documents found on ancestry.com but I am looking for some better information. I know for sure Lewis Laurie was born on that date because I have visited his grave site in Beckly, West Virginia. A point in a new direction would be very appreciated.

From Kraftwerk to Leonard Cohen, The Smiths to Suicide, and Pet Shop Boys to Smog, Chicago's one-man musical army Owen Ashworth a.k.a Casiotone for the Painfully Alone - has been bracketed with all manner of illustrious names in the course of his eleven year career. But in collecting the 7-inch split-singles and compilation tracks he released from 2004-7 (all but two of them on CD for the first time), Advance Base Battery Life provides compelling evidence of the singular nature of this industrious film-school dropout's talent.
If 2006's sumptuously accomplished "Etiquette" was Casiotone For The Painfully Alone's "The Queen Is Dead", this is his "Hatful of Hollow" - a selection of formative fragments which add up to an utterly satisfying whole. In expanding his musical palette from minimal battery-powered electronics to include strings, flutes, tabla and pedal-steel, Ashworth has lost none of his miniaturist's eye for detail. And his forensically acute two and three minute character-studies are all the more poignant for their (relatively) expansive new settings.
The journey from CFTPA's brutally stripped-down 1999 debut "Answering Machine Music" to the lavish pocket symphonies of "Etiquette" has taken in all manner of unexpected detours. And Advance Base Battery Life compiles musical snapshots of those drunken get-togethers and maudlin solo road-trips into a vivid and memorable photo-album. Where mumbled aphorisms once plunged into echoing chasms of reverb, now the impeccable electro-pop credentials of "White Corolla" and "Holly Hobby" are established with pristine clarity. And superficially surprising cover choices - Paul Simon's "Graceland", Missy Elliott's "Hot Boyz", and not one but two Bruce Springsteen tunes (each with the power to pluck at the heart-strings of even the most hardened Boss-sceptic) - soon reveal a beguiling internal logic.
It's worth noting at this point that the music of Casiotone For The Painfully Alone has become a much less solitary affair in recent years. This compilation alone contains collaborations with Nick Krgovich (of Tomlab label-mates No Kids), Dear Nora's Katy Davidson, and Gordon Ashworth of Concern (who also doubles as Owen's brother). "Scattered Pearls" vocalist Jenny Herbinson also returns to provide lead vocals on two tracks "Lesley Gore on the T.A.M.I Show (version)" and "White Corolla" (the latter having inspired an animated video by London illustrator Julia Pott which has now become an improbable YouTube sensation, uk.youtube.com/watch?v=z3dUgPvkYnw).
But it's the very particular lyrical and musical vision of Owen Ashworth that's always at the heart of things. And whether you're a newcomer to his morbidly vivacious micro-narratives, or a long-term devotee - hungry for more clues as to how he got from there to here - Advance Base Battery Life is one short sharp shock you'll want to experience over and over again.

X Tour Fairway Woods offer superior turf interaction, alignment accuracy and more penetrating ball flight. With Callaway Golf's new X-Sole design, the clubhead rests on two distinct, raised areas of the sole, eliminating the tendency of the head to rock back and forth at address. That means a more consistent alignment that will help ensure your shots start off on-line. A lower leading edge allows you to hit down under the ball, especially helpful on tight lies.
The Tour 13° and Tour 15° Fairway Wood models have slightly smaller heads and stronger lofts for a lower, more penetrating ball flight preferred by more skilled players.
- With Callaway Golf's new X-Sole design, the clubhead rests on two distinct points of the sole, preventing any rocking back and forth for consistent alignment to your intended target. The new sole design also features a lower leading edge for ideal turf interaction from any lie.
- Internal perimeter weighting on the back ribbon of the club minimizes clubhead twisting at impact on off-center shots, resulting in straighter shots.
- VFT Technology provides maximum ball speed and perimeter weighting, giving you exceptional ball flight, distance and forgiveness.
- Short Straight Hollow Hosel (S2H2) allows our engineers to take the useless weight found in the hosel and reposition that weight in the clubhead where you need it most, allowing you to hit the ball harder without swinging harder. Tru-Bore means the shaft is closer to the hitting area, providing better feel and clubhead control.
