Five helpings of dairy products every day, instead of the three now recommended, can help keep heart disease and diabetes at bay.
New research has shown that a higher intake of dairy products on a reduced calorie diet can help fight obesity, besides cutting down risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
As part of her doctoral research, Wendy Chan She Ping Delfos from Curtin's School of Public Health (CSPH) compared three serves of dairy with five serves of dairy within a reduced calorie diet prescribed for obese participants over a 12-week weight loss trial.
Participants who consumed five daily dairy serves were found to have higher mean levels of weight loss; higher mean levels of fat mass loss; greater drop of systolic blood pressure; and greater total percentage abdominal fat loss, according to a CSPH release.
"Many people commonly believe that when trying to lose weight dairy products are key foods that they have to cut out of their diet as they are high in fat," Chan Delfos said.
"Participants who had five serves of dairy and engaged in resistance exercise had similar health benefits to participants consuming five serves of dairy only," she said.
Keywords: dairy products, heart disease, obesity, diabetes

In new Quinnipiac poll, it's clearly Clinton and maybe Bush — for now
If she runs, she wins.
It's the feeling a lot of Democrats have about former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's chances of winning the presidency, and almost nothing in a new Quinnipiac University swing state poll says "not so fast."
So far, Mrs. Clinton dominates the Democratic primary election races in Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania, the first step in her march toward a return to the White House.
On the Republican side, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush unsurprisingly dominates in Florida and runs well in Ohio and Pennsylvania with former Massachusetts Mitt Romney in the race.
Mr. Bush is also among the leaders among Romney voters who were asked their second choice because it wasn't clear if he planned to run a third time for president. He stepped out of the race last week.
By the numbers:
— Mrs. Clinton had 61 percent support in Florida, 51 percent in Ohio and 54 percent in Pennsylvania.
The poll had what I think is relatively bad news for the Scranton native, Vice President Joseph Biden. With Mrs. Clinton in the race, he's second in Florida at 11 percent, but third behind Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren in Ohio (Warren, 14 percent, Biden, 7 percent) and Pennsylvania (Warren, 12 percent, Biden, 10 percent).
With Mrs. Clinton out, Mr. Biden shoots to the top with 35 percent in Florida, 34 percent in Ohio and 32 percent in Pennsylvania, ahead of Mrs. Warren (16 percent in Florida and Ohio, 15 percent in Pennsylvania).
Asked their second choice if Mrs. Clinton is out, 20 percent of her voters in Florida, 17 percent in Ohio and 18 percent still said she's their second choice.
The second choice numbers are actually the reason I think the poll is bad news for the vice president.
This poll came a year before the primary. Mrs. Warren has done nothing but deny she's interested in running for president, and she still pulls support in the teens with or without Mrs. Clinton in the race.
Mrs. Clinton should also keep looking over her shoulder. President Barack Obama's poll numbers were a whole lot worse at this point in 2007, and she was way ahead then, too. If a serious challenge to her were to emerge, I think Mrs. Warren is the only one likeliest to even have a chance assuming she wants to do it because she's drawing the support from the party's liberal wing.
The poll did ask about others.
In Florida, U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, drew 2 percent, and former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley and former Virginia U.S. Sen. Jim Webb drew 1 percent.
In Ohio, it's Mr. Sanders, 5 percent, Mr. O'Malley, 1 percent, and Mr. Webb, no support.
In Pennsylvania, it's Mr. Sanders and Mr. O'Malley each with 2 percent and Mr. Webb at 1 percent.
They just seem too far back and unknown to ever become serious contenders, though Mr. Sanders makes a good case for himself when you hear him speak and does better with Mrs. Clinton out (4 percent in Florida, 5 percent in Ohio and Pennsylvania).
— Mr. Bush leads in Florida at 30 percent, a number you would figure because he was its governor. In Ohio, he had 9 percent, trailing Mr. Romney's 15 percent, Ohio Gov. John Kasich's 11 percent, and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker's 10 percent. In Pennsylvania, he was second at 10 percent with Mr. Christie to Mr. Romney's 12 percent.
Mr. Bush is tops among Romney voters asked their second choice in Florida (32 percent); third in Ohio (tied with Kentucky U.S. Sen. Rand Paul with 10 percent) behind Mr. Kasich (14 percent) and Mr. Walker (11 percent); and first in Pennsylvania (12 percent) ahead of Mr. Christie (11 percent) and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (11 percent).
It's clear the Republican race is wide open. If you had to pin me down now, I'd say watch out for Mr. Christie or Mr. Walker, but Mr. Bush is getting ahead in organization.
I also think it's good to remember that the Republican primary process starts with Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina, and former Pennsylvania U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum won the Iowa caucuses four years ago. He also stayed in the race the longest challenging Mr. Romney, dropping out when the race reached Pennsylvania when it became clear he might lose here and ruin his chances of getting the nomination forever.
I say count him out at your peril, but if Mr. Santorum wants to win the nomination, he'll probably have to do it before he hits Pennsylvania's April primary because his numbers here remain discouraging.
He stood at 6 percent in his home state, behind not only Mr. Romney, Mr. Bush and Mr. Christie, but also Mr. Huckabee, who had a surprising 9 percent, and just ahead of Mr. Walker's 5 percent.

The Samaritan Pentateuch
The importance of the recension known as the Samaritan Pentateuch lies in the fact that it constitutes an independent Hebrew witness to the text written in a late and developed form of the paleo-Hebrew script. Some of the Exodus fragments from Qumrān demonstrate that it has close affinities with a pre-Christian Palestinian text type and testify to the faithfulness with which it has been preserved. It contains about 6,000 variants from the Masoretic text, of which nearly a third agree with the Septuagint. Only a minority, however, are genuine variants, most being dogmatic, exegetical, grammatical, or merely orthographic in character.
The Samaritan Pentateuch first became known in the West through a manuscript secured in Damascus in 1616 by Pietro della Valle, an Italian traveler. It was published in the Paris (1628–45) and London Polyglots (1654–57), written in several languages in comparative columns. Many manuscripts of the Samaritan Pentateuch are now available. The Avishaʿ Scroll, the sacred copy of the Samaritans, has recently been photographed and critically examined. Only Numbers chapter 35 to Deuteronomy chapter 34 appears to be very old, the rest stemming from the 14th century. A new, definitive edition of the Samaritan Pentateuch is being prepared in Madrid by F. Pérez Castro.
The Qumrān texts and other scrolls
Until the discovery of the Judaean Desert scrolls, the only pre-medieval fragment of the Hebrew Bible known to scholars was the Nash Papyrus (c. 150 bce) from Egypt containing the Decalogue and Deuteronomy. Now, however, fragments of about 180 different manuscripts of biblical books are available. Their dates vary between the 3rd century bce and the 2nd century ce, and all but 10 stem from the caves of Qumrān. All are written on either leather or papyrus in columns and on one side only.
The most important manuscripts from what is now identified as Cave 1 of Qumrān are a practically complete Isaiah scroll (1QIsaa), dated c. 100–75 bce, and another very fragmentary manuscript (1QIsab) of the same book. The first contains many variants from the Masoretic text in both orthography and text; the second is very close to the Masoretic type and contains few genuine variants. The richest hoard comes from Cave 4 and includes fragments of five copies of Genesis, eight of Exodus, one of Leviticus, 14 of Deuteronomy, two of Joshua, three of Samuel, 12 of Isaiah, four of Jeremiah, eight of the Minor Prophets, one of Proverbs, and three of Daniel. Cave 11 yielded a Psalter containing the last third of the book in a form different from that of the Masoretic text, as well as a manuscript of Leviticus.
The importance of the Qumrān scrolls cannot be exaggerated. Their great antiquity brings them close to the Old Testament period itself—from as early as 250–200 bce. For the first time, Hebrew variant texts are extant and all known major text types are present. Some are close to the Septuagint, others to the Samaritan. On the other hand, many of the scrolls are practically identical with the Masoretic text, which thus takes this recension back in history to pre-Christian times. Several texts in the paleo-Hebrew script show that this script continued to be used side by side with the Aramaic script for a long time.
Of quite a different order are scrolls from other areas of the Judaean Desert. All of these are practically identical with the received text. This applies to fragments of Leviticus, Deuteronomy, Ezekiel, and Psalms discovered at Masada (the Jewish fortress destroyed by the Romans in ce 73), as well as to the finds at Wādī al-Murabbaʿat, the latest date of which is ce 135. Here were found fragments of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, and Isaiah in addition to the substantially preserved Minor Prophets scroll. Variants from the Masoretic text are negligible. The same phenomenon characterizes the fragments of Numbers found at Naẖal H̱ever.
Masoretic texts
No biblical manuscripts have survived from the six centuries that separate the latest of the Judaean Desert scrolls from the earliest of the Masoretic period. A "Codex Mugah," frequently referred to as an authority in the early 10th century, and the "Codex Hilleli," said to have been written c. 600 by Rabbi Hillel ben Moses ben Hillel, have both vanished.
The earliest extant Hebrew Bible codex is the Cairo Prophets written and punctuated by Moses ben Asher in Tiberias (in Palestine) in 895. Next in age is the Leningrad Codex of the Latter Prophets dated to 916, which was not originally the work of Ben Asher, but its Babylonian pointing—i.e., vowel signs used for pronunciation purposes—was brought into line with the Tiberian Masoretic system.
The outstanding event in the history of that system was the production of the model so-called Aleppo Codex, now in Jerusalem. Written by Solomon ben Buya'a, it was corrected, punctuated, and furnished with a Masoretic apparatus by Aaron ben Moses ben Asher c. 930. Originally containing the entire Old Testament in about 380 folios, of which 294 are extant, the Aleppo Codex remains the only known true representative of Aaron ben Asher's text and the most important witness to that particular Masoretic tradition that achieved hegemony throughout Jewry.
Two other notable manuscripts based on Aaron's system are the manuscript designated as BM or. 4445, which contains most of the Pentateuch and which utilized a Masora (text tradition) c. 950, and the Leningrad complete Old Testament designated MSB 19a of 1008. Codex Reuchliana of the Prophets, written in 1105, now in Karlsruhe (Germany), represents the system of Moses ben David ben Naphtali, which was more faithful to that of Moses ben Asher.

The advice to cut salt should be taken seriously by people who are "salt-sensitive" – those whose bodies hang on to the salt they consume, which drives up their blood pressure and creates chronic problems. About 20 percent of the population is salt-sensitive, particularly people who are overweight, African-American, or who have high blood pressure. The CDC recommends that these groups keep their daily salt consumption under 1,500 milligrams.
But for the rest of the population, some scientists say the harmful effects of salt are overblown.
"Salt intake is most dangerous for the person with left ventricular weakening, or congestive heart failure, who really need to be on a low sodium diet," said Dr. Chip Lavie, medical director of cardiac prevention at the Ochsner Clinic Foundation and Hospital in New Orleans. "However, for thin people with good heart function who have low levels of blood pressure, it probably is not so important to keep salt low."
For those groups at special risk or for others who simply want to keep their salt low, Dr. Clyde Yancy, chief of cardiology at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago, said it's exceedingly difficult, given the amount of salt that lurks in unlikely foods like bread, cookies, and ketchup.
"Nearly 60 percent of our sodium consumption is embedded in our foodstuff and is consumed passively," Yancy said. "Ideally, we would consistently have lower sodium options for most if not all food items with clear labeling. How can a message of the provision of choice in a free market society not be palatable?"
Certain food companies have proved willing to compromise on the salt content of their foods, balancing consumer demand for taste with medical and federal concerns about salt. McDonald's, Kraft, and Campbell's are among the companies that have instituted voluntary sodium reductions in some of their products.
Dr. Jay Cohn, director of the Rasmussen Center for Cardiovascular Disease Prevention at the University of Minnesota, said even eliminating the very high salt content of certain foods like soups or tomato juice would make a difference.
"Modest restriction will not harm anyone and probably will have some small benefit on the whole population," Cohn said. "It is nothing like smoking, which helps nobody and has a profound adverse effect on individuals and on the population." Until the great salt debate shakes out, experts say consumers should focus on other ways to reduce blood pressure and improve their heart health: getting regular exercise and eating a diet full of fruits and vegetables.

Norton Healthcare, the largest health care supplier in the Louisville, Ky., region, has adopted end-user virtualization as a means of giving doctors and nurses a desktop that follows them on their rounds.
The five-unit acute-care hospital chain and supplier of 11 neighborhood clinics is in the process of providing 1,000 thin clients to end-user end points, such as nursing stations, clinic treatment centers, and 50 physician offices. With three shifts a day, most end points have three different users every 24 hours, noted Brian Cox, director of IT customer services.
Norton implemented VMware's View in place of Citrix Systems Presentation Server because it wished to upgrade Meditech, its core patient tracking/medical record application. "Meditech changed the design of the client. It wouldn't work right on Presentation Server. One particular printing session would back up and overrun the system, with 20 to 30 other users calling in" to complain they couldn't access the application, he said.
Presentation Server virtualizes an application and sends application results down the wire in response to the end-user queries. Cox likes virtualizing the whole desktop -- applications combined with an operating system. His VMware View environment spins up copies of golden images (customized desktops) from storage in his Louisville data center and runs them on one of six ESX Server hosts. Each host can handle 160 to 180 virtual desktops, he said.
A few golden images take up "one-quarter to one-third of the space" on his storage area network compared with what he used to devote to end-user applications. In addition, each end user's virtual machine functions in a "sandbox," or set of parameters that limit what memory and other resources it can access. That way, "other users continue to work if one process goes wild," he said.
The nature of the image is determined as the user logs in and calls for a desktop. VMware View retrieves the appropriate image and links the user to a central server. The images are created by IT staffers using View Composer, VMware's virtual desktop modeling tool.
(Citrix Systems, in addition to Presentation Server, now offers virtual desktops through XenDesktop that are spun up from central images.)
With VMware view set up, Cox has been able to let doctors and nurses move around the hospital and still access their desktop from the closest thin client, often at the nursing station of a wing instead of having to go back to their own desks. Their desktops can be called up from any location and used to enter patient information or look up patient records.

when I print small enough to mount my prints to 8x10 boards I will use 2 ply and then overmat with 4 ply

when I print small enough to mount my prints to 8x10 boards I will use 2 ply and then overmat with 4 ply
I dry mount prints for framing or my portfolio on 2 ply, and float matt with matching 4 ply board. I cannot see a reason to use 4 ply mount board when framing, and 2 ply takes up less space in a portfolio case. So 50% of my board is 2 ply and 50% 4 ply.
I fasten my mat to the backer board with filmoplast sh linen tape.
I use a piece of linen tape to hinge the mat boards together.
I'm one of those that doesn't like to drymount prints. I prefer mylar corners. Especially for prints that small, they work really well. Although, I have done the T-Hinge mount with linen tape and that works perfectly fine, too.
This is my method too. Mostly photo corners, but sometimes I use t-hinges too.
The person that mounts and displays photographs at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts once told me these words: "Use linen tape to t-hinge, or archival photo corners to mount your prints. But, whatever you do, don't ever dry mount them".
I always took that advice at face value, and added the reasoning that you can't ever re-mount the print if you have to. And that is something you will want to do, when the buffer in your mounting board has been eradicated by the acids and pollutants in the atmosphere. It will, at that point, no longer protect your print.
And, if something happens to the mount board, which is there to protect the back of the print, you're stuck again by not being able to replace it.
But I digress. Many people dry mount, and 2ply works fine for that. If your prints are very large, you may wish to consider a stiffer material, such as 4ply.
- Thomas
I've been T-hinging prints and adding photo corners to the bottom two corners, with an overmat.
Linen tape for the hinges as well as hinging the two mat pieces together.
Dan, this is the way I was taught. It holds the two pieces together and prevents them from misaligning and putting your well-cut mat out of whack. It also helps out if prints aren't framed and displayed matted in a portfolio box or in a prints rack at a show.
When showing prints from a portfolio box, it looks better when the mat is aligned with the print.

Revisiting Tiananmen Square: "It Might Be A Parade Or Something"
Follow @GretchenMargJune 5, 2012, 2:02 pm ET
Twenty-three years ago today, a man stood in front of a line of tanks in China's Tiananmen Square. It was one day after a massacre took place there, the government's response to student protests in the spring of 1989.
The story of how the photograph came to be, as told in FRONTLINE's 2006 film The Tank Man, is dramatic and deeply moving. It involves an ordinary man with shopping bags, observers in a nearby hotel and a film canister placed covertly in a toilet:
Almost 20 years after this moment, FRONTLINE filmmaker Antony Thomas sat down with university students in China to ask them what they knew about the iconic image of the tank man. Their answers — ranging from whispers about 1989 to the observation that the photo captured a parade — speak volumes about the nature of a republic that places a high value on controlling who sees what:
Thomas later called his meeting with the students "a very dangerous experiment":
Today, images of what happened at Tiananmen Square are still blocked on the Internet in China due to what John Palfrey of Harvard's Berkman Center for Internet and Society has described as "the world's most sophisticated means of Internet filtering."
Words like "candle," "massacre," "tank" and "never forget" have been banned in Mandarin on social media sites like Sina Weibo, reports The Atlantic. Even stock market-related searches have been temporarily disabled due to a Shanghai Composite Index fall of 64.89 points — that's 6/4/89, specifically.

LAWRENCEVILLE -- Georgia Gwinnett College recently honored the donors supporting four of its first student scholarship funds during a recent reception.
The gathering aimed to honor donors for the Antonio Damian Scholarship, awarded to Nicholas Bon, a senior majoring in English; the Gwinnett County Bar Association Endowed Scholarship, awarded to Matthew Montgomery, a sophomore majoring in political science; the Gwinnett Federal Credit Union Scholarship, awarded to Lucinda Scrivener, a senior in special education; and the Linda Shumate Scholarship, awarded to Buice as well as Ashley Rivera, a junior majoring in history.
"For these donors it was the fist chance they've had to meet students whose lives have forever changed by their generosity," said Lori Buckheister, director of development at GGC. "This was the first of what we hope will be an annual event at which the college and its students can express their gratitude and describe what a difference these scholarships can make in helping them achieve their dreams."
Danielle Buice, one of the first recipients of the Linda Shumate Scholarship, made a presentation on behalf of the student scholarship recipients.
"I plan to graduate school and pursue a profession in the allied health field," Buice said. "I wouldn't be here today without your support."

Agent: Evgeni Nabokov, KHL club split
Updated: December 13, 2010, 12:09 PM ETBy Scott Burnside | ESPN.com
Longtime San Jose Sharks goaltender Evgeni Nabokov and Kontinental Hockey League club SKA St. Petersburg have parted ways, the player's agent, Don Meehan, told ESPN.com on Monday.
Unable to land an acceptable NHL deal after his Sharks contract expired, Nabokov signed a four-year deal with St. Petersburg, one of the KHL's most affluent clubs, last summer. The split was "mutually agreed upon. Family reasons," Meehan said.
According to Hockeydb.com, Nabokov was 8-8-5 with a 3.02 ...

Good resource
posted 6 years ago
This is a good book for basic information on cat care, from picking out a cat to cat behavior and choosing a litterbox. I especially like that it has a chapter on why to keep your cat indoors that goes into all the reasons why it is healthier for cats to not be free-roaming. It also has great tables on dangerous and toxic plants, plus one on plants that are cat-safe, and medical information explaining what is an emergency and what may not be. All-in-all this is a good cat care manual worth investing in.
Pros: Good basic information
Cons: none that I can think of

Excellent source of basic cat care

This should be in every cat owner's possession. Cats are unique individuals, very different in dogs, in their response to life and it's stresses, particularly in the field of first aid, and training.
I'd reccommend this to anyone who loves and wants to keep a healthy cat.
Pros: easy to read, good photos
Cons: none

Good book
posted 6 years ago
Every cat owner should own this book. It covers most topics in regards to cat health, issues, diet, etc. However I feel it is basic and just a quick overview of topics. It will not provide very detailed information. But again, it is a great book for all cat owners to have on hand for reference.
Pros: very informational, covers all the basics
Cons: may be to basic for some

Chelsea's Ancelotti full of praise for Anelka
Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti was full of praise for Nicolas Anelka after the Blues won their opening Champions League clash on Wednesday night.
The Frenchman scored two goals to help his side to a 4-1 win over Slovak minnows MSK Zilina in their Group F opener and his performance was lauded by his Italian boss.
"The key was Anelka, he played a fantastic game. He created space, he had opportunities, he was the key for this game," Ancelotti said.
"He can play the position in front, sometimes we use him more wide, sometimes he plays in the middle but he shows the same skills if he plays wide."
Ancelotti was also impressed with young striker Daniel Sturridge, who scored the fourth goal, but admitted he had to improve in some areas to become a first team regular.
"I am happy Sturridge scored, but he has to improve his positioning, I would like him to play more infield rather than out wide. He showed fantastic movement to score, I am happy with his performance," he added.

Arla Skyr "the messenger" by Wieden & Kennedy London
Agency: Wieden & Kennedy London
Rating: 5.0
By Loulla-Mae Eleftheriou-Smith, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Thursday, 02 February 2012 10:23AM
BMI has outlined the conditions of the deal in a "term sheet", which agrees to allow the new owner to continue to use the bmibaby fleet, its route network and the employment of existing staff.
According to the term sheet, the new owner will also be able to use the bmibaby brand name for an "interim" period and consumers will still be able to book flights through bmibaby.com and the bmibaby call centre.
The term sheet is non-exclusive however, meaning that BMI can continue to have discussions with other interested companies.
The sale of bmibaby comes two months after British Airways' parent company IAG agreed to buy BMI from Lufthansa for £172.5m.
BMI also disclosed that bmibaby's headquarters will remain in the Midlands and the airline will continue to operate from its three existing UK bases of the East Midlands, Birmingham and Belfast City.
BMI expects the sale to be signed off in the first quarter of 2012 and completed shortly after.
BMI said it is "pleased" with the opportunity that this transaction gives to the bmibaby business, enabling it to be an "independent airline with great future prospects.

My skin would best be described as Combination, (with the classic oily t-zone and dry cheeks), sensitive and dehydrated.
I find this foundation to be pretty good. I mean, it has good coverage, a good finish and is long lasting. It can be a little drying on my cheeks, and not particularly oil-controlling on my t-zone...so I take off one point for that.
In regards to the longevity of this foundation, It is one of the best I have tried (and I've tried alot!). I do find that instead of oxidising and turning a darker shade, it tends to look lighter at the end of the day (almost ghostly). Although I do have pale skin, when I put it on in the morning it's a nice, healthy colour but that does change. Can look cakey due to having to apply powder throughout the day to control oil, and I find that the foundation often seperates on my nose by the end of the day.
The Packaging is terrible! The screw cap lid doesn't seem to fully close properly and if the bottle happens to fall over, foundation runs all down the side of the bottle and it turns into a mess :-(
I have used 2 bottles of this foundation, and at $50 AUD a pop, they're not cheap, although a good price for a High-end foundation.
Still looking for my HG foundation, but this is pretty good for now. As summer is approaching, I'll need to add a darker foundation with it to create the right colour, although as my current bottle is almost empy, I may just purchase a new colour match.
Not bad EL, not bad!

Finally! This is really The Foundation! It provides excellent coverage without looking cakey at all, shades are great (I am a perfect match to 3W1 Tawny, being a Mac NW25/30 and Intensity 3.0 in the DW Light), very easy to work with a brush, no need to set it (but if I manage to get a sample of the EL Lucidity Translucent Loose Powder I'll try it with that and update this review), no breakouts and lasting 12 hours.
I went to buy the DW Light and the lady suggested I tried this one too and gave me a sample. Now I half regret having bought the DW Light as this provides a far better coverage. Anyway, will be my next buy after the light version is finished!

Best foundation i have tried!! i love it! Coverage is excellent. Doesnt feel heavy at all. leaves skin flawless with a natural finish. Absolutely worth the money its around 35 dollars.
UPDATE: Something changed about this foundation, it now gets greasy on me by the end of the day. bottle doesnt say it has spf anymore.Have been really disappointed with this foundation as it doesnt leave the same results as it once used to. Also, the color Sand Beige has too much yellow in it.. Defenitely , wont purchase this again:/

Why I keep returning to this product:
- it is *almost* transfer resistant
- lasting power is excellent
- does not feel heavy
- coverage is even, no blotchiness, no redness
If those three qualities are what is most important for you in a foundation, then you will not get a better match.
If you want something dewy, illuminating, or sheer, this is not it.
Common complaints:
- difficult to remove, thus leading to clogged pores and breakouts. It removes easily with an oil cleanser, then some toner.
- it oxidises. I agree that it used to, however this year I haven't noticed any oxidisation.
- ghost face when used with night time flash photography. Again, I agree that it definitely used to do this, but in the last two years it has photographed beautifully. If in doubt, bronze up!
- crappy/weird shades that do not match properly. Hooray for the new shades, maybe they are getting closer to correcting this.

RUBBISH!!!! Does not control my oily skin at all, dries in FAR TOO QUICK and after about an hour my face looks as if i've dipped it in a chip pan. I also didn't like how the so called "expert" in House Of Fraser recommended the shade Fresco for me which ended up being far too dark for my pale skin. Her being an Estee Lauder advisor, I tought she'd know what she was talking about, so I took her advice and purchased it. It'll be the last time I ever take anyone's advice on my make up! All in all, a terrible foundation with an unjustifiable price tag. £27!!! Shocking. Not worth it at all. I wouldn't use this if they were giving it away for free lol.

This is my favourite foundation of all time, the only reasons i haven't given it 5 lippies is because 1. It has no pump and thats really annoying, especially when you're getting to the bottom of the (very dinky) bottle and 2. It is now £30.00 in the U.K. which, although it lasts for about 3/4 months seems bloody extortionate to me.
Anyway, reasons why i love this.I have a very pale, pallid uneven skin tone, (i got colour matched by the S.A. and i wear Ecru) and when i wear this it evens everything out completley and i look like i have the face of a china doll (actual quote from the mother there.. impressive). It covers everything, shadows under eyes, spots, dark patches. LOVE IT.
If you like a lighter look it's probably not for you, although in all of my photos i wear it and i don't think i look TOO made up!! The only time i didn't use it as my first choice was when i was on holiday in the states as i found it far, far too heavy for the florida sun.
No matter how expensive this gets i think i'll keep buying it, it just makes my skin look so flawless. I adore it!

After using many different high end and drugstore brand foundations I have come to the conclusion that this is the BEST liquid foundation ever! I have oily skin with a lot of scarring from acne and i also have large pores as well as random imperfections and when i put this foundation on my skin looks flawless. Great thing about this foundation is you can wear a thin layer for a natural look and for full coverage just blend 2 pumps and your good to go! It has a semi-matte finish which is great for my oily skin, just wish it was a bit more matte but nothing a bit of MAC blot powder can't fix! =) P.S This is one of very few foundations that has not broke me out!

Updated: February 23, 2007, 12:32 PM ETBy Linda Cohn | ESPN.com
It was a total surprise. Completely unexpected.
Who would have thought I would meet Roger Daltrey's mother-in-law at the same coffee shop I visit every morning?
For you younger readers, Roger Daltrey is the lead singer of The Who, not to be confused with Chris Daughtry, the best fourth-place finisher ever from "American Idol." I bring up this chance meeting because it came on the same day I planned to write this column about the surprising and unexpected success of the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Police: Jay Ratliff's BAC twice legal limit
JAN 28, 2013 10:08a ET
Grapevine police say the results of Ratliff's blood test showed a BAC of 0.16. Texas' drunken-driving standard is 0.08 percent.
Ratliff was arrested at 12:36 a.m. on Jan. 22 after he allegedly hit an 18-wheeler in his 2011 Ford F-150 pickup truck before running into the guardrail on State Highway 114. Ratliff failed his sobriety test and refused a breath test. Police secured a search warrant, took him to the Grapevine jail and took a blood sample.
In December, Ratliff's Cowboys friend, teammate and fellow defensive lineman Josh Brent was charged with intoxication manslaughter after a crash in Irving in which practice squad teammate Jerry Brown Jr. was killed.

For the current fiscal year, which ends on September 30, 2015, the Office of Innovation and Improvement (OII) will conduct 11 grant competitions in six program areas: Arts in Education, Charter Schools, Investing in Innovation, Opportunity Scholarship, Ready to Learn Television, and Supporting Effective Educator Development. Announcements of these competitions began this month and will continue through this spring and summer.

Paving a New Path: The Growth of Illinois Charter Schools Outside of Chicago
During the past three years, the Illinois Network of Charter Schools (INCS) has dramatically expanded its work to educate Illinois residents about the charter school model, and to support charter school "design teams"— made up of teachers, former educators, and community organizations, for example — that seek to launch new, high-quality public schools in their respective communities. With support from the Office of Innovation and Improvement, INCS has grown its Charter Starter Consulting program to deliver consistent content and counsel to design teams while maintaining a strong focus on customized services. As a result, INCS has planted the seeds for additional charter schools to thrive, especially outside of Chicago, Illinois' largest city, and to raise student achievement for increasing numbers of Illinois students.
Success in Arizona: A Focus on Increasing Quality Schools in Phoenix's Urban Core
Phoenix charter school leaders Jenna Leahy and Tacey Clayton believe that something has to change for students in the nation's sixth-largest city. The majority of the 215 public schools in the Phoenix urban core serve low-income, minority students, and of those schools, only 8 percent received an "A" — the highest academic performance label — in 2014.
After two years of leadership and school development, Jenna and Tacey are poised to help change the life paths of Phoenix students, as CASA Academy opened its doors to 149 students in kindergarten through second grade this August.
CASA and six other schools are part of a new initiative, New Schools For Phoenix, that grew out of a three-year, $1,179,855 National Leadership Activities grant from OII's Charter Schools Program (CSP) to the Arizona Charter Schools Association in 2010.
Illinois Principal Quality Efforts Nationally Recognized
Since 2005, Illinois has pursued improving the quality of school principals as a top priority to reform K-12 education. A Commission on School Leader Preparation, followed by an Illinois School Leader Task Force, paved the way for groundbreaking state legislation in 2011, requiring alignment with new criteria for principal preparation programs and certification standards.
Behind this progress is a strong collaboration between the Illinois Board of Higher Education, the State Board of Education, and the Center for Study of Education Policy at Illinois State University. On July 1, the Education Commission of the States (ECS) presented the 2014 Frank Newman Award for State Innovations to the three entities for their work. "In improving our schools, there is little that matters more than the quality of our principals," said ECS President Jeremy Anderson, in a press release. "Illinois' work exemplifies what can happen when stakeholders collaborate in such a critical area."
Slammin' on Education
What happens when you invite students to a project directors' conference on school leadership? They infuse the atmosphere with energy and enthusiasm, push the envelope in thoughtful ways, inspire with their creativity, and remind the adults why our work is critical.
OII's School Leadership Program office recently hosted a convening for 45 of its grantees currently implementing projects that prepare and develop principals to serve in high-need schools and districts. The conference provided an opportunity for districts, universities, partner organizations, Principal Ambassador Fellows, and federal policymakers to learn from each other and other experts in the field about how to improve and promote school leadership. Throughout the two-day conference, student performers graced the stage to intermittently bring our work back in focus while also challenging us all with provocative questions, such as "At what point does patience give way to urgency in our reforms?"
Philadelphia Schools Leader Helps Arts Stay Strong for All Students
A tireless champion for the arts in education, Philadelphia Assistant Superintendent Dennis W. Creedon draws on nearly 30 years of working in or partnering with schools in Philadelphia to make the arts part of a well-rounded education for all of the city's 131,000 students.
As a senior administrative leader in the district's central office, Creedon, who began his education career as a theatre teacher in 1987, combines his understanding of research into the nature and value of arts learning with creative approaches to tapping Philadelphia's rich array of cultural institutions to weather the latest budget reductions. Since 2008, Philadelphia schools are required to have art or music offerings and a commitment to every student having at least one arts lesson weekly. The policy, which Creedon was instrumental in developing, appeared to be in jeopardy last year as the district faced a $304 million budget deficit.
In a recent Education Week profile of Creedon, the conductor of the All-City High School Orchestra, Don S. Liuzzi, draws on the meteorological metaphor to explain the school leader's importance. "The ship was sinking," he said, describing the district's most recent round of budget reductions that threatened the jobs of nearly 4,000 teachers. And while some arts specialist positions were lost, the arts education ship is still afloat, according to Liuzzi, because the district's top arts education advocate is "a very persuasive and avid supporter of the arts."
New ED Blog Spotlights Current Education Transformations
The U.S. Department of Education has launched a new online resource, PROGRESS, to highlight state and local innovative ideas, promising practices, lessons learned, and resources informed by the implementation of K-12 education reforms.
These stories will showcase the exciting transformations taking place in classrooms, schools, and systems across the country through the leadership of teachers, school, district and state leaders and their partners.
The Department launched PROGRESS to emphasize the voices and perspectives of educators, students, and administrators to better understand how policy changes are spurring education improvement and to draw out what can be learned from areas of progress occurring at the state and local levels.
The End's the Beginning for TQP Director Peggi Zelinko
Last month, OII said a fond farewell to Director of Teacher Quality Programs Peggi Zelinko. Peggi retired at the end of November after 19 years of service at the Department of Education.
Peggi was named the Director of the Teacher Quality Programs (TQP) in OII in 2005. In that role, she oversaw a number of discretionary grant programs focusing on teacher quality and school leadership. These programs have included Transition to Teaching, Troops to Teachers, Teaching American History, the National Writing Project, the School Leadership Program, Supporting Effective Educator Development, and Teacher Quality Partnerships. She also served for a year as acting director of the Investing in Innovation (i3) program, while maintaining her leadership role of TQP. Before her leadership role with TQP, Peggi served as a program officer for the Transition to Teaching program and team leader for the School Leadership Program in OII, and as the program officer for the Office of Vocational and Adult Education's teacher quality initiatives.
Peggi was a practitioner as well as a policy maker. Formerly a staff member with the U.S. Department of Labor and the West Virginia State Department of Education, she also worked as a teacher educator at the collegiate level and as a high school marketing teacher. Her work at ED was defined by this background in education. One of her chief goals as a program director was to ensure that programs show results. "To what end?" was one of her signature comments when assessing grant program activities.
National Nonpublic School Leaders Attend Annual Conference
The Office of Non-Public Education (ONPE) hosted the 9th-Annual Private School Leadership Conference on September 23 at the Department of Education's headquarters in Washington, D.C. Each year, the invitation-only event brings together 100 of the nation's top private and home school educational leaders from across the country. Also attending were representatives from state and local education agencies who are responsible for administering federal education programs on behalf of private school students.
The annual conference provides a forum to address Department of Education programs and initiatives, listen to the concerns of the nonpublic school community, highlight innovative practices, and facilitate discourse between the Department and national nonpublic school leaders.
New OII Grants to Increase Access to High-Quality Schools, Effectiveness of School Leadership, and Role of Arts Education Nationwide
Secretary of Education Arne Duncan this week announced nearly $105 million in Office of Innovation and Improvement (OII) grants that will help to ensure high-quality leadership in high-need schools, develop model arts education efforts nationwide, and increase public school choices for parents.
In announcing $13.3 million to 20 projects under the School Leadership Program (SLP), Secretary Duncan said, "High-quality examples of leadership can help shape a school's culture and create an environment where students are excited to learn." The five-year grants will help prepare individuals to meet state certification requirements to become principals or assistant principals as well as provide professional development to current principals and assistant principals. More than 1,500 aspiring or current school leaders in almost 100 high-need school districts across 15 states will be served by the grantees' programs and services. Full information about the new SLP awards can be found here.
Acknowledging the role the arts play in helping students gain the skills needed to succeed in college and careers, the $2 million awarded under the Arts in Education Model Development and Dissemination program (AEMDD), according to Secretary Duncan, "… will help organizations establish and implement sound practices that can be used in classrooms across the nation." The eight grantees vary from nonprofit arts education organizations to a higher education institution to both charter and traditional public schools, all of which have strong partnerships to develop and implement their projects. Click here for the ED press release on the AEMDD awards.
Magnet schools can increase public school options for parents and students, and the $89.8 million in Magnet School Assistance Program (MSAP) grants will "help students gain access to challenging curricula that will help prepare them for college and 21st century careers," said Secretary Duncan in announcing the grants to 27 school districts in 12 states. The districts will use the up-to-three-year grants to establish new magnet schools or expand existing magnet programs. Click here for complete information on the MSAP grants.

Speaker John Boehner has close ties to the American Action Network, a dark money nonprofit, and the Congressional Leadership Fund, a super PAC. These groups raise funds from clients of lobbyists looking to increase their own influence. (Photo: J. Scott Applewhite/AP)
Paul Blumenthal and Ryan Grim tell Huffington Post "The Inside Story Of How Citizens United Has Changed Washington Lawmaking". In this important piece, we learn the direct impact the Court's 2010 Citizens United ruling has had on the flow of money in Washington and its influence on decision making.
Blumenthal and Grim explain, "Politically active nonprofits, known as "dark money" groups for their ability to shield the identity of donors, and super PACs, which take unlimited sums of money but must disclose donors, have become dominated by lobbyists and other political operatives with close ties to leaders in Congress. Meanwhile, businesses with issues before Congress are pumping increasingly more money into the lobbyist-connected organizations."

A second man was charged with murder on Tuesday after a Cahokia woman was shot during a home invasion and died.
Torrence Neal, 25, of St. Louis, faces charges stating he murdered Cassandra Holman, 45, of Cahokia, and shot Shantner Bonner in the leg. He remained a fugitive Tuesday.
Antrell A. Teen, 31, of Bridgeton, Mo., was charged Sunday with first-degree murder and aggravated battery with a firearm in the same case.
Investigators with the Major Case Squad on Tuesday were still working to find Teen, Neal and a woman they called a person of interest in the home invasion and shootings.
Teen is known to frequent the Overland, Mo., area and is known to drive a blue 2001 BMW X5 vehicle. St. Louis Police are also looking for the trio.
Holman was shot multiple times before daybreak Friday inside her home in the 100 block of Kenneth Avenue in Cahokia. Charges state she was shot in the back.
She was able to run to a neighbor for help but she died at Touchette Regional Hospital in Centreville two hours after the shooting. Bonner was also shot in the leg during the home invasion but his injuries were not life-threatening.
Teen was described as armed and dangerous. He is 5 feet, 11 inches tall and weighs 175 pounds. Neal is 5 feet, 8 inches and 198 pounds.
Anyone with information is urged to call the Major Case Squad of Greater St. Louis at 618-332-4248 or CrimeStoppers at 866-371-8477.CrimeStoppers operates an anonymous tip line that pays up to $1,000 for information leading to an arrest.
