Windows Q&A
- Why should I buy a Windows device?
Windows devices are available in all shapes and sizes to match your lifestyle and they can also be customized with your favorite apps, colors, and backgrounds to match your personality. Multitask with ease on a Windows device. Run Office side-by-side with your web browser, or make a Skype video call while you check email. Windows devices also work with stuff you already have, they include ports for printers and cameras and work with your favorite apps.*
*Windows RT 8.1 devices only runs built-in apps or apps that you download from the Windows Store.
- Does Windows have the apps I want?
Right out of the box, Windows 8.1 comes with apps to do all the basics and a lot more. There are apps to stay in touch, save your files to the cloud, and keep track of your photos and videos in new and easy ways.
Plus, you can visit the Windows store to choose from over 100,000 apps for games, music, news, weather, and entertainment, to just name a few.
- Did the desktop disappear?
No. You'll also still be able to work with the familiar desktop just as you did in earlier versions of Windows. If you spend most of your time on the desktop, you can even set Windows to go there instead of the Start screen when you first turn on your PC.

Vettel handed grid penalty after gearbox change
May 10, 2014, 1:15 PM EDT
Sebastian Vettel has been handed a five place grid penalty for tomorrow's Spanish Grand Prix after Red Bull changed the gearbox on his car following qualifying.
During the final part of qualifying today, the defending world champion was forced to stop his car out on track because of a problem which was later diagnosed to be concerning his gearbox. As a result, he failed to set a time during Q3, and was therefore classified in 10th place.
However, he will now start tomorrow's Spanish Grand Prix from 15th after the team decided to make the change on his car.
The FIA regulations state that any driver whose car undergoes a gearbox change across the course of a race weekend is to be demoted five places on the grid.
"I left the garage for Q3 and lost drive in second gear; I still had third gear and above so we thought we could do the lap with that, but by turn 1 I had lost all the other gears, so we couldn't continue," Vettel explained. "I was getting more in to the rhythm with each lap after missing yesterday's sessions. It was quite close between the cars after the Mercedes and I think I could have had a go for P3 today, but we didn't get that far. I'm of course quite disappointed."
It has been a difficult weekend for the team, with Vettel also suffering an electrical problem during FP1 on Friday that meant he could complete just four laps all day.
From P15, he faces an uphill struggle to make the podium, but Sebastian Vettel is a four-time champion of the world for a reason; don't write him off just yet.

So sad. What goes around generally comes around. I hope Mark Webber is getting a good laugh out of Vettel's issues. Karma can be a real beeitch.
- worknman24hours - May 10, 2014 at 10:08 PM
Frankly,penalizing a driver for a equipment failure is a laughably stupid idea.
Whether it's Vettel or any other driver.
Penalize the team on the team championship side only.
Simply deduct team points-if they have none-assign them negative points.
What the hell does a driver have to do with a gearbox falling apart or a tire falling off his car that he gets the penalty assessed to him?
Stunningly bizarre FIA nonsense.

Each session starts with a visit to the galleries to focus on specific aspects of painting and sculpture. Then kids will adjourn to the art studio to create their own masterpieces.
The format is tried and true, but the programs are all new, said Kristen Schweigard, public and family programs coordinator. And they are tied to the mission of the institute, "to expose them to a broad range of ideas and art forms," she said.
One session focuses on snowy cityscapes. Schweigard said kids are asked how snow falls and how it would fall onto a building. Their suggestions are supplemented by examining snowy scenes in specific paintings.
Back in the studio, kids will "make a multi-layered snowy cityscape using paper, pastel and paint." The process is broken down into steps, first designing the cityscape, then doing rubbings to add texture to the paper, then adding paint, she says.
The other two sessions are about sculpture.
Sessions are filling up quickly. To register, contact Schweigard at 518.463.4478 Ext. 435 or email@example.com.
Afternoons in Schenectady
The Schenectady Museum has afternoon activities scheduled for Tuesday through Friday, Dec. 26 to 29.
December Break Wonder of Science sessions run between 1 and 4 p.m.; museum-goers can drop in anytime. Activities are recommended for second graders and up, with one exception-- the chemistry session on Tuesday.
"Making slime is something that any child three to 103 can do," said Ilene Frank, director of public programs and education.
Parents are expected to supervise their children, but Frank said they could participate or stand back as they wish.
"We have educators are in the room to help kids," she said.
On Wednesday, kids will make an electroscope, a simple device that measures static electricity and is related to the museum's Power House exhibit.
A physics activity on Thursday is about "persistence of vision," said Frank. Kids can make a device that tricks the eyes into seeing two images as one. Friday presents alternative energy.

RESPIRATORY SYSTEM I. Respiratory system -. The Function of respiratory system is to provide oxygen to blood and remove CO2 from it. Respiratory system consist of the following portion 1. AIR CONDUCTING PORTION a. Nasal cavity b. Nasopharynx, larynx c. Trachea d. Bronchi e. Bronchioles f. Terminal bronchioles g. These provide a passageway to and from lungs h. These components also "condition" the inspired air (i.e. moistens, removes particles and some noxious gases, warms air) 2. RESPIRATORY PORTION a. respiratory bronchioles b. aveolar ducts c. alveoli used for gas exchange 3. MUSCULOELASTIC VENTILATION APPARATUS - muscles, e.g. intercostals and diaphragm, used for moving air in and out of the lungs.. Structure of nasal cavity Nasal cavity consist of 3 parts 1- vestibular region the epithelium of this part is stratified squamous epithelium resembles of that of the skin but is slightly cornified this part is a transition zone toward the nares (nostrils ).around the inner surface of the nares are numerous sebaceous and sweat glands in addition to a thick short hairs (vibrissae) that serve to filter out large particles from the inspired air 2-respirratory region The epithelium is pseudostratified made up of ciliated columnar cells 1. Epithelium of various types depending on what part of the tree your in 2. Lamina propria 3. Elastic fibers a. Elastic fibers associated with tissues allows expansion followed by passive contraction. 4. Smooth muscle a. Smooth muscle allows change in diameter of passageway. 5. However, the presence or absence of the above listed components will differ depending on which specific portion of the respiratory tree we're talking about. 6. Hyaline cartilage is found at the base of the lamina propria in the trachea, primary bronchi, and intrapulmonary bronchi. a. This hyaline cartilage gives support to respiratory tree. D. Basic components of the respiratory tree - Figure of general structure 1. Trachea and primary bronchi a. Mucosal epithelium - the mahority of the cells form a pseudostratified, columnar, ciliated epithelium b. Interspersed among the columnar, ciliated epithelial cells are, * Goblet cells (muscus secreting) are interspersed among the more numerous columnar ciliated cells * Brush cells apical microvilli (may be immature goblet cells) * Basal cells - possibly stem cells that will divided to provide replacements for dead or laost cells of the epithelium. b. Lamina propria contains many lymphocytes that are supported by a meshwork of elastic and reticular fibers. c. A band of elastic fibers called the membrana elastica interna separates the mucosa from the sub mucosa. d. The submucosa is composed of loose connective tissue and contains the secretory components of serous and mucous glands whose ducts empty into the traceal lumen. e. The adventitia is the most prominent tissue layer * dense connective tissue * C-shaped rings of hyaline cartilage * Tracealis muscle (smooth muscle) fills the intervals between the cartilage rings. * The cartilage and muscle make the trachea a very rigid structure. 2. Intrapulmonary bronchi (also called secondary bronchi) a. 3 in right lung, 2 in left lung. * These intrapulmonary bronchi each each extend into a pulmonary lobe of the lung and thus are sometimes called lobar bronchi. * These and subsequent bronchi undergo repeated branching culminating in the formation of bronchioles. b. Large intrapulmonary bronchi are histologically similar to the trachea and primary bronchi. c. Differences in the histology develop as the bronchi become smaller. * Cartilage rings are reduced to irregular plates of cartilage. * A band of circular smooth muscle develops. * Goblet cells in the epithelium become less numerous. * Epithelium becomes reduced in height and simple columnar with less cilia. d. Lymphatic nodules may be present in lamina propria, particularly at branching points. 3. Bronchioles - diameter 1 mm or less a. Major characteristics * Bronchioles lack cartilage * Smooth muscle layer is relatively thicker. * Many non-ciliated Clara cells are present in epithelium. * Epithelium in simple columnar with fewer cilia. * No glands in lamina propria b. 4 types of bronchioles * Large bronchioles - branch repeatedly, final branches are the terminal bronchioles * Terminal bronchioles - form connection between large bronchioles and respiratory bronchioles ** Epithelium becomes simple cuboidal * Respiratory bronchioles - form connection between terminal bronchioles and alveolar ducts ** This is the transitional structure connecting the conducting zone to the respiratory zone. ** Alveoli open into this structure along its length ** Clara cells become abundant * Alveolar ducts - connect directly to alveoli ** Walls of the ducts consist entirely of alveolar openings. ** epithelium is flat (squamous) called avleolar epithelium ** Duct teminates in a cluster of alveli that share a common, dialated chamber - called an alveolar sac. II. Respiratory system - Cellular histology A. THE COLUMNAR RESPIRATORY EPITHELIUM EXHIBITS PLASTICITY. Interesting to note that changes in air flow may result in new abrasive sites on the epithelium. The pseudostratified epithelium will respond to this by changing into stratified squamous epithelium. Other changes can also occur (see below). 1. For those of you that smoke, this means that the pseudostratified epithelium of your respiratory tract has a greater number of goblet cells than normal in order to provide additional mucous to clear your airway of particulates in the cigarette smoke. 2. Unfortunately, as a result, there are fewer ciliated cells so the mucus does not move as rapidly as it should (smoking also has a detrimental effect on the cilia). 3. Portions of your respiratory epithelium will change from pseudostratified columnar to stratified squamous. This also reduces the number of cilia, as well as the area of ciliation. 4. This causes your lungs to be more prone to congestion, i.e. the bronchioles are more likely to be clogged with mucus. 5. The increased mucus also reduces the diameter of the air passages smaller making your lungs less efficient. 6. As a result, respiratory problems like colds and hay fever cause smokers more problems than if they didn't smoke. 7. If you quit smoking, the damage is reversible because the respiratory epithelium can regenerate. B. SEVEN TYPES OF CELLS FOUND IN RESPIRATORY EPITHELIUM. 1. Goblet cells a. Mucus secretion. b. Plentiful in portions of respiratory tree above the smaller bronchi. c. Function - mucus collects particulate matter and absorbs some noxious gases. 2. Ciliated columnar cells a. In components above the smaller respiratory bronchioles b. 300 cilia/cell. move mucus back toward oral area c. Function - to move inhaled debri trapped in mucous out of respiratory tract. 3. Columnar brush cells a. Numerous microvilli on surface b. Some have dendritic synapses on basal surface c. Function - thought to be sensory. 4. Basal (short) cells a. Small basal cells on basal lamina that do not extend to surface of epithelium. b. Function - thought to be stem cells for other cell types. 5. Small granule cells a. Look like basal cell, but have granules in cytoplasm. b. Function - thought to be APUD cells that secrete hormones. 6. Clara cells a. Secretory cell ultrastructure b. Function - possibly secrete surfactants that decrease surface tension of fluid that moistens the surface of lung epithelia. 7. Alveolar cells - Type I (see below) 8. Alveolar cells - type II (see below) III. The alveolus A. The alveoli are lined by an exceedingly thin, simple squamous epithelium. B. Between the epithelia of adjacent alveoli are 1. The endothelial lining of capillaries - continuous, non-fenestrated endothelium. 2. Basal laminas of epithelium of aveolar type I cells and capillary endothelial cells that are fused at some points. 3. Smooth muscle 4. Fibroblasts 5. Elastic and reticular fibers 6. Pores between adjacent alveoli C. Cells of the alveolar wall 1. Alveolar type I squamous epithelial cells a. Presumably the cells across which gaseous transfer occurs, possibly at the sites of fusion between this cells basal lamina and that of the capillary endothelial cells. b. Compose about 40% of the alveolar cells, but cover about 95% of the alveolar surface area. 2. Alveolar type II cells (also called septal cells). a. These are roughly cuboidal with many microvilli on their free surface b. Thought to synthesize a phospholipid, dipalmitan lecithin that acts as a surfactant, i.e. it reduces surface tension across the squamous epithelium of the alveoli and thus reduces the force needed to inflate the lungs. 3. Also find alveolar macrophages called dust cells - usually free in the alveolar lumen. a. These cells act to clean fine inhaled debri from the alveolar free surface of cells by endocytosing particles. b. They are critical to lung function. Deficiency in function increases the incidence and seriousness of lung disorders. D. The blood-air barrier. 1. This refers to the cellular structures that lie between the air in the alveolar sacs and the blood in the capillaries. a. Starting in the alveolar lumen this barrier consists of, * Surfactant * Mostly type I alveolar cells lining the alveolus * Basal lamina of both alveolar cells and capillary endothelial cells (fused in some areas) * Non-fenestrated (continuous) endothelium of capillary * In areas where basal lamina of the two endothelial layers are not fused, reticular and elastic fibers are present. b. The blood-air barrier prevents air in gaseous form from mixing with the blood. c. In certan situations, the blood air barrier may be broken * Called an embolism. * Can result in the release of gaseous oxygen into the blood circulatory system * These air bubbles can cause blockage of blood circulation in the brain that results in paralysis and/or death.

|Off the Indonesian coast, a 747 plunges into the Pacific Ocean, leaving a handful of survivors that wash ashore onto a deserted island. Unbeknownst to them, the island is home to a secret genetics lab where Dr. Peter Carlson has attempted to resurrect a long-extinct mammal. But something has gone horribly wrong and soon they realize that surviving the plane crash was the easy part. Something more sinister than anything they could have imagined is stalking them. And it is determined to see that no one makes it off the island alive.

Playing Doctor With My SistersAs discussed elsewhere on this site, I underwent a series of rather humiliating school physicals during my elementary years, each of which left a lasting impression on my personality. My two sisters experienced the same examinations, often comparing notes when we got home from school. From grades one to three, we were only required to stripp down to our panties, but around the fourth grade, nude examinations were introduced following a well-documented "health scare" in our local district.
Like many kids our age, we started incorporating medical elements into our playtime, influenced by what we'd each undergone at the school clinic. At first, we played hospital fully clothed, alternating between doctor, nurse and patient. After a while, however, we settled down into more specific roles, in which I was usually the subject of the examination.
I should stress that the play-acting started out completely innocent; we were just three little girls dressing up in the rumpus room with a plastic medical kit. Sometimes we'd remove our t-shirts while the "doctor" checked our breathing, but that was about as far as it went for a while. All of that changed one Saturday afternoon when we decided to re-enact one of our recent school physicals.
As mentioned above, I almost always played the patient, and it was around this time the game began to take on sexual undertones for me. While I was only about nine years old and understood none of the emotions I felt, I gradually developed a deep sense of anticipation whenever we went downstairs to set up the "clinic". The "sc
Having established a basic routine, the game always started with me sitting in our makeshift classroom, pretending to read a book. Tanya, my younger sister, would walk into the room wearing an improvised nurse's uniform, telling me it was time for my check up. At this point, my pulse would slip into overdrive, because I knew from long practice what to expect.
Feeling a vague flutter at the back of my tummy, I would stand up and walk obediently across the floorboards as Tanya ushered me into the "change room". There, she instructed me get ready for my physical:
"Take off your clothes and put them in that basket. The doctor will see you in a minute". Sometimes I'd ask her how much I had to take off, and she'd reply "everything except your panties."
I'm not sure how to describe what I felt at that point. The emotions were so complex, so raw and tangled that I've never quite found the words. It usually started with a warm tingling on the nape of my neck, which would suddenly cascade down through my shoulders, thighs and tummy. My hands frequently trembled as I started undoing my dress, sometimes fumbling the buttons. Gooseflesh quivered down my torso, especially around the belly button.
This was usually followed by a jarring sense of dissociation, as if I'd been separated from my own body and was viewing myself from the other side or the room. Everything was played out in high resolution; I could see myself standing by the downstairs window; a petite little girl with long blond pigtails, slowly undressing in a haze of sunlight. The strangest part was – I was fully aware that this was happening to me, not someone else. I was unfastening the bow at the front of my frock, I was sliding the straps lightly down my arms, I was stepping out of the dress to reveal my fresh white underwear.
Mind whirling with conflicting emotions, I dropped the frock into the basket and stood up in my vest and knickers. I knew my forced striptease was nowhere near complete, but I feigned innocence for a few seconds until Tanya ordered me put of my socks and singlet. This was one of most important aspects of the game: the patient could wear nothing but her underpants during the preliminary examination. No excuses, no exceptions.
Shivering with expectation, I removed the offending garments and crossed my palms over my white nylon panties. A mild scarlet tone tinged my features; although my siblings saw me half-undressed every day, I always found this final ritual embarrassing beyond words. It was as though I'd been transported back to the school auditorium, undergoing a naked physical before my entire class. Cheeks flushing cherry red, I dropped my eyes to the floor, waiting for Tanya's next instructions.
Satisfied with my performance, Tanya took me by the hand and led me into the "examination room", where Lydia, my older sister was seated at a desk with a toy stethoscope around her neck.
"Kristina's here to see you, Doctor," Tanya announced, then stood attentively to one side. Adopting an authoritative tone, Lydia called me over to stand by her desk in my prim, white undies. Scanning me up and down with her sharp blue eyes, she asked my full name, marking it off on her non-existent list.
The check-up began with some idle small talk regarding my general health (Lydia did an amazingly good impression of our regular school physician), scribbling notes in an imaginary casebook. A few terse questions later, she would swivel her chair towards me, reaching for the medical kit as she moved. This was the official signal that my examination was about to begin.
The preliminary progressed in a brisk, professional manner as Lydia looked down my throat, listened to my breathing, tapped my chest and inspected my tummy-button. It's worth mentioning that I had to keep my hands by my sides during this phase, as covering myself up was strictly against the rules. I could only raise my arms if the doctor ordered me to, and even then, I had to keep them over my head until Lydia said otherwise. Any attempts to conceal my flimsy nylon knickers from view would result in a stern rebuke from Nurse Tanya (don't be silly Kristine – the Doctor's allowed to see your panties).
Concluding the preliminary, Lydia turned back to her desk, pretending to fill out her medical report. Breathing a carefully sc
Lydia had developed an extremely "hands on" approach to our examinations, twisting and wringing my body out until I was literally gasping for breath. I think this was in caricature of our annual sports physicals; our gymnastics teachers tested our flexibility by bending our spines and stretching our limbs to the limit. Lydia could be every bit as rough, although I doubt she ever acted out of cruelty; it was simply how we'd come to play the game. Strangely enough, these personal violations only increased my excitement.
Once the ritual torment was over, Lydia made another note in her invisible casebook then glanced back in my direction, gesturing towards my underwear.
"OK. You can take your panties off now, Kristy," she said in an offhand manner, mimicking Dr Roberts' casual indifference. No matter how many times she said this, I always responded with a gasp of surprise:
"My panties?"
"Yes," Lydia nodded matter-of-factly, "it's time we checked your pee-pee."
This was, of course, the climax of the game, the moment I'd been dreading all along. I had no choice in the matter, refusal was totally out of the question. I was the patient, I was the little girl. They were the adults, the grown ups, the ones who gave the orders. I had no option but to obey. I'd seen this coming from the very start, but it never lessened the impact once we arrived at the moment of truth. There was no avoiding the inevitable, I was going to take my panties down, and the doctor was going to look at my pee-pee. And there was nothing I could do about it.
Moaning in quiet humiliation, I hooked my thumbs through my panties, peeling them slowly down my thighs...
To be continued. I hope you enjoyed this little glimpse into my childhood. Please leave a message if I should write the next part of this experience. Yours, Kristy :))
I love this kind of story, I wish there were more
Wow I wish I could of done things like this when I was young
Pm me the rest
Lemme hear the story!
Please feed us more of the story.
It was not much different than many of us experienced when we were growing up.
Great beginning!
Ditto to what keeperofkeys said, sweetie! :)
Please finish the story... the suspense is KILLING me! ;) amazingly well written - can't wait to find out more!
Aw the memories! Do they sell those medical kits for kids any more? My sister and her friend from next store and I played doctor a lot! what fun! Thanks and please continue with the story!
Yes tthey still sell thoes kits, We recently bought a kit for our niece. Hopeing that she has as much fun with it as we did growing up.
What roll did you play? Were you the only boy in the game? How old were you when you played?
In my day (60s and 70s), most of our game concentrated on the tummy, thighs, and sometimes chest. After the order to turn over, we would then zero in on the lower back and thighs.
After some probing, the undergarments would be lowered to just below the bottom or even as far as mid-thigh and the rest of the exam would take place in this position.
In those days, many doctor's offices would take temperatures rectally and administer shots in the butt so we emulated those activities in our play.
To my delight, the kids were always asking me to be the doctor since many loved my technique and the gentleness in which I "practiced" on them and because I was seen as the authority figure though short for my age. I was also chosen as the spanker in our games of house in school for the same reason.
Even today, I cherish those memories and will continue to do so for years to come!
this was nothing but a good tease
Definitely need to know more!!
please continue
Hi Kirsty, loved reading your experience, so what happened when your pee pee was examined.
Good story
Great story Kristy and very well written. I can't wait to read the rest. :o)
Excellent story...are you going to post the rest of it?
Of course you have to continue your story. Please do.
wow i couldnt take my eyes off the story...please keep writing... and please add please!!
Brings back memories when My sister, her friend and I played doctors when we were young. That's a story I may tell if there is interest.
Please add me, and definately continue the story.
would love to hear the rest of it
Nicely written, very ritualistic...maybe a little too much in my mind to be realistic: it sounds more like a reconstruction than the fumbling attempts you may have done as kids. But, well, it's entertaining, and now...panties off, Madam! I want your peepee...and I'll show you mine!
Very nicely written, and it does ring true with me. I am male, and in my case I was usually the patient who was being examined, and my slightly older female cousins were the medical staff. Like you, I experienced it with a mixture of excitement, anticipation, and enjoyment.
to be continued oh you little tease you ;}
Enjoyed the story very much. Look forward to the next installment.
Oh yes please do continue !
I too have memories of childhood exams. Sometimes I would get to reenact parts with my stepsisters oh what memories. <br />
I was a bed wetter and had a few exams that were focused on such, almost believe they were borderline molestation. But I guess if your the doctor you have to do what you have to.
...Whoa. Keep writing; your story is so desc<x>riptive! I felt as if I was actually there! The world needs more authors like you. The bolding of important words made it more dramatic and intense. (Also, is the art on your avatar by you? If so, I'll add great artist to the mix xD)

Obama travels to India to talk about the economy and jobs
A huge billboard welcoming US President Barack Obama is seen on November 5, 2010 on the promenade near the Arabian sea front in Mumbai on the eve of his India visit.
STEVE CHIOTAKIS: President Obama travels to India today on a three-day mission to talk about the economy and jobs. It's the first Asian stop on a ten-day, four-nation tour.
From New Delhi, Raymond Thibodeaux reports.
RAYMOND THIBODEAUX: President Obama is set to arrive in India's commercial capital of Mumbai with a huge entourage of leaders from American corporations, including GE and Boeing. Their mission: to pry open India's markets to more U.S. businesses in defense, banking, retail and agriculture, and in the process create more jobs back home.
The president is hoping to avoid the "O" word -- outsourcing. It's a hot-button issue here after Obama pushed to end tax breaks to companies that ship American jobs overseas. Indians also bristled when the U.S. nearly doubled the fees for visas that allow thousands of Indians to work in the U.S.
Indian foreign secretary Narupama Rao points out that the flow of jobs goes both ways.
NARUPAMA RAO: Thousands of jobs have been created by our acquisitions in the United States. That is something we would like to convey to President Obama and his delegation.
Still, analysts say that might not be enough to convince the more than 13 million American workers without jobs that opening up U.S. trade with India might help the U.S. economic recovery.
In New Delhi, I'm Raymond Thibodeaux for Marketplace.

'Mist' opportunity: Airbrush tanning provides safe way to 'go with the glow'
While the dangers of baking in the sun's rays are well-documented, many men and women still long for that golden brown glow that is perceived as healthy and attractive.
Enter self-tanning lotions, which are often chastised for their streaky, smelly application and orangey results.
But now, a new way to tan has hit the market, brushing away pale skin with a seemingly magic wand.
Jill Burke, co-owner of Hair Success with her sister, Jodi Dahl, says she and Dahl found out about airbrush tanning through a group of spa owners they meet with in New York.
"We're all about beauty and wellness and it kind of plugged right into what we're doing," Burke says. "It's a great approach. It's a healthy approach."
A clear liquid is applied to the skin using an airbrush, which coats the skin with a fine mist.
Dihydroxyacetone, or DHA, is the active ingredient that is found in most self-tanners. DHA interacts with the dead surface cells on the skin, darkening them.
DHA has been deemed safe by the Food and Drug Administration, and the American Academy of Dermatology promotes using products with the chemical.
"It's considered to be quite safe. It's especially safe when you think of it as an alternative to tanning because we are quite rigid in our opposition to tanning regularly," says Dr. David Flach, a dermatologist with MeritCare.
In fact, Flach says, DHA, a compound derived from vegetables, is a weak sunscreen.
"We don't consider it adequate, we want people to use a sunscreen that has a higher SPF," Flach says.
Burke says a full-body application takes about 30 minutes to apply and five minutes to dry.
Within six to 10 hours, a tan appears. Tanners can shower, and Burke says the spray doesn't come off on clothing.
Two applications are mandatory to begin. The first layer gives the skin a healthy glow, Burke says. The second layer takes care of any missed spots and gives that week-in-the-tropics look.
No damage, aging
Cassie Skauge, a senior at Minnesota State University, Moorhead, had her first applications recently.
"I was very surprised," Skauge says. "I was really pleased with it."
Skauge has very fair skin, and says she normally burns and then turns white. But the airbrush tanning gave her dark results.
"I don't ever go tanning at the tanning salon and I've tried the lotions, but I've never gotten into them," she says. "I kind of like this because it was so easy."
The tan lasts about seven days, fading as skin cells naturally slough off.
"If you're pretty fair, you're going to get a pretty dark color, but you're not going to get that fakey, orange color," says Stephanie Hauglie, an aesthetician for Hair Success. "There's no damage to the skin, there's no aging."
Burke says people with light blond hair are her most grateful customers. Burke, a blond, has been using it since Hair Success started offering the tanning system in July.
"I love the fact that you get the color so fast," she says. "It tans your face so beautifully."
Burke says Hair Success did lots of business for Christmas parties last month.
"It's really popular in the summer, for brides and people in weddings," Hauglie adds.
In the slower times, Hauglie says she sees a dozen people a week, besides what the other four beauticians see.
Elite Nails and Tan has offered the service since the beginning of November, and is the only place in Grand Forks, N.D., that has it.
"Everybody's been really happy with it and coming back," says Kelly Hughes, an airbrush tanning technician with Elite Nails. "It's like using sunless tanning lotion except it doesn't make you orange and there's no streaks."
Elite Nails and Tan has eight different formulas available, including one that is DHA-free for the small percentage of people who are allergic. Depending on the formula, results last from four days to two weeks.
It costs $40 for two full-body applications at Elite Nails and Tan. For the face, arms and legs, it costs $30, and $25 for just the face and arms.
Hair Success is offering the service for half price until March 1, so the first two full-body applications cost $25, and $17.50 for each additional application. Smaller applications, such as just the face or arms, cost less.
"I think it's pretty great," Hughes says. "It's not like tanning in the beds; you don't have to worry about cancer. It's quicker and safer."

Re: GTX 295 and Microstuttering
Man....this sh&t wont be put to bed. Im so sick of hearing about this yet I dont see any claims from actual user here claiming micro stutter exits on GTX295S and they want to return it atleast not yet.
But real users like Jackup and me claim there isnt who should you trust?
Again I say buy the card as I stated before, and in the event you have it MS that is
then return it, Newegg is awesome if you buy from them about returns within a decent time frame.
People with less than a couple posts who come on here with claims that they know what ms is or that the GTX295 HAS IT ARE FLAT OUT WRONG and seem in my eyes to have some kind of agenda for whatever reason, Again I have thrown 5 to 6 different new games on this card without any MS issues so take what you read here with a grain of salt this is not the 9800GX.
TRY IT FOR YOURSELF if you planned on buying or on the edge I purchased this card because coming from an ATI 4870x2 I had driver issues, and own an x38 broad so for me this was the best I could buy and I have not been disaapointed.

The husband and wife song writing duo of Tony Hamera and Kate Hinote, began their creative experiment in 2004. Hamera, a veteran of the Detroit music scene as a studio engineer and musician, and Hinote, a neophyte vocalist brimming with raw talent, first appeared together in the short-lived dream pop act, Ether Aura, independently releasing two records between 2005 and 2007. However, It would not be until 2008 that the couple would find their creative centers, as well as the critical pieces which would make up The Blueflowers. After many months of writing, member changes, rehearsals, and live shows, their debut album, Watercolor Ghost Town was released in 2009 - a cinematic mélange of alt-country, gothic Americana, 1960's psychedelia, and indie pop. Metro Times Detroit had this to say :
"Watercolor Ghost Town is a genuinely beautiful and touching piece of work, from the opening title track to the melancholy "Helpless and Hopeless" album closer. Hinote's voice remains note perfect and goose bump-inducing throughout; the musicianship is finely executed and lovingly arranged."
The Blueflowers released their sophomore effort on March 25th, 2011 entitled In Line With The Broken-Hearted. As with their debut effort, it was independently recorded and produced by the bands guitarist and co-songwriter, Tony Hamera, out of Tempermill Studios in Ferndale, MI. Retrospective Magazine had this to say about it:
"If you're not feeling heartbroken or hopeless already, the gently rocking, seductively soothing sounds of this very talented folk-noir group will make you wish you were. This type of music is timeless, as are the themes of rejection and redemption. They create a weepy but wonderful wall of sensuous sounds, sad but strengthening, emotionally deep without being a downer."
Elements of Americana, folk, '60s girl-pop and psychedelia can be heard throughout the disc. Hamera cites the vintage sounds of Roy Orbison, the Shangri-La's and the Zombies along with modern groups like Mazzy Star, Neko Case and Nick Cave as influences for the group. "We were going for a dark, moody, yet song-oriented record, utilizing as much analog gear and period instrumentation as possible," says Hamera. "Think Phil Spector meets David Lynch."
Rounding out The Blueflowers quintet is drummer Jim Faulkner, bassist Erica Stephens and David Johnson on acoustic guitar.

Travis Pizel, 39, said "I do" to his wife Vonnie, 40, in 1996. The couple, who lives in Rochester, Minn., spent the early years of their marriage going to dinner a few times a week, taking expensive vacations to locales like Hawaii, and hosting elaborate catered dinners—for 100 of their closest friends.
"Instead of having a potluck, we'd provide all the food and desserts, and also hire a bartender," says Travis, who works as a software engineer. "Sometimes the alcohol bill alone was $1,000."
The Pizels didn't give a second thought to the steep price tag of their lifestyle. "We both had good jobs, and we felt entitled to spend whatever we wanted," Travis says. But those jobs—which amounted to a combined income of $50,000 with Vonnie's gig as a teacher's aide—didn't provide nearly enough money to underwrite all of the purchases that the Pizels were making.
"We saw the debt growing, but we always thought that, sooner or later, our incomes would catch up with our spending—that the next pay increase or bonus would help us pay it down," explains Travis. "Instead, it was one of those 'the more you make, the more you spend' things."
Although his wife was well aware of their excessive spending habits, Travis was the one who paid the bills—and he often used credit cards to cover them unbeknownst to Vonnie. "I'd pay as many as I could with [our] checking account, and then I'd pay the rest of the bills with credit cards," he says. "I did credit-card juggling too, getting new cards with low intro rates."
Travis kept up the routine for as long as he could, until he received a letter in 2009 announcing that the minimum payment on his credit cards was going to increase by $800. No amount of juggling could cover that big an increase, so Travis had to come clean to his wife.
"It was hours of going through statements, and saying, 'Here's what I've been doing, and here's how it's been working,' " Travis says. Vonnie was understandably angry that her husband had been secretly tweaking the numbers for so long, but she was equally disappointed in herself for contributing to their debt.
"I wish that I'd worked with Travis as a team," Vonnie says. "I think back to all of the out-of-town weekends we did, the dinners out and the trips we took. If I'd known what was going on, we wouldn't have done any of those things. That's what hurts the most—that he just allowed both of us to keep spending and digging us into a deeper hole."
In total, the Pizels had swiped their way to a whopping $109,000 of unsecured credit card debt. "Hopeless is the best word [to describe how we felt]," Travis says. "We knew bankruptcy was out there, but we wanted to avoid that if we could."
So when they searched on the internet and found a credit-counseling program, CareOne Debt Relief Services, they made an appointment. That was a little over four years ago, and thanks to their sessions with a debt counselor, the Pizels will be done paying off their debt on February 28, 2014.

The Other Couples Counseling
You might say that, for the Pizels, debt counseling has been a kind of couples therapy. In fact, the process of paying off their debt has actually brought them closer: Vonnie and Travis went from not talking about money at all to having twice-weekly budget meetings to keep their bills and spending habits in check.
It's actually not uncommon for couples to bond over debt repayment, says Garry Patterson, an adviser with ClearPoint Credit Counseling Solutions (CCCS), which has nearly 40 locations across the country.
