I have tried many foundations and I have found this to be the best one I've ever used. I tend to get small under the skin slots on my forehead and chin but I must say that since using this foundation they have reduced dramatically. If you're the kind of person that is prone to spots then I'd suggest getting the Nars Sheer Matte foundation as it's oil-free.
The foundation itself is lovely, it's feels silky smooth and skin looks completely flawless. It might be a little pricey for the amount of product that's in the bottle but you only do just use a pea-sized amount of the foundation, this stuff spreads far which is awesome! :)
I think that the vast amount of shades is impressive too as there's a shade that suits everybody. I'm really really pale skinned and it's hard for me too find the right shade, thankfully I found Nars! I wear the shade 'Mont Blanc' and matches my skin perfectly, if you're really pale and have pink undertones to your skin then this shade will probably be right for you.
I also wear Nars concealer and pressed powder and I must say that these are also brilliant, all of these products really do give you a flawless finish to your face when they are used together.
I was first initially going to buy Sheer Matte as opposed to Sheer Glow as I thought I wouldn't get enough coverage with Sheer Glow...how wrong I was! With this foundation you can create any kind of coverage, from light to full. This I think is brilliant! I have to say that even though I do like a full coverage I tend to wear this foundation as a light coverage, it makes your skin glow and look super healthy.
I really would go and buy this foundation if you're looking for the perfect one, it's just simply amazing! :D

I really wanted to love this foundation. For months, I've been saving up for Barcelona (I'm NC40 in MAC) and when I finally purchased it, I was ecstatic. Upon opening the box, I was displeased to find out that Sheer Glow didn't come with a pump. For such an expensive product, a pump should be mandatory! I was told I could purchase it for an additional fee, but no thanks.
Now on to the product itself. Upon application, Sheer Glow didn't really impress me. Though it blended well on my skin color, the foundation kind of sat on top of my face and accentuated my pores. I wasn't impressed by the coverage either, which I can describe as only average. However, I continued on with my usage. When I used it on a dance event a few days later, I was pleasantly surprised. Sheer Glow, when heavily layered on, offers full coverage that's so photogenic it almost made me cry. I looked FANTASTIC in all my photos! And it stayed on despite hours on the dance floor. I was impressed!
However, after one week of everyday usage, I noticed that my cheeks started to get bumpy and painful. However, since Sheer Glow covered most marks well, I didn't realize the extent of the damage until close inspection one night to find that it broke me out in multiple, painful, HUGE cystic pimples all over my cheeks. I was horrified! They are healing now, and have stopped spreading since I stopped my NARS usage, but they have left dark, ugly crater marks which make me cry.
Giving two lippies for the good coverage when layered heavily and the photogenic qualities. I wanted to love this badly but the damage is horrifying. Not for sensitive skinned women! continued >>

After much deliberation I finally took the plunge and bought Nars Sheer Glow. I got colour matched at Harvey Nicholls, the MA was extremely knowledgable and matched me perfectly (although wasn't keen on the overkill of cross-selling additional products such a primer etc). I'm quite fair skinned but Nars had a wide range of foundations to suit all sorts of skin types - very impressive! I normally go for a matt foundation as so many of the satin foundations give you a 'plastic' face - I was pleasantly suprised with Nars. The application is effortless, in fact I've never had a foundation that glides on so smoothly and so easy to work with. I use a MAC 187 brush which gives an even and flawless finish that literally does 'glow' - it's not too shiny, not to matt, the finish is just right. In particular I've been experiencing dry skin around my t-zone and cheeks as I've got older - this foundation has masked the dryness and really makes your skin look even/healthy, a considerable improvement (this was one of my reservations about buying due to previous reviews by dry skin users - I certainly didn't experience it). The foundation is a medium coverage but very light feeling - I really don't feel like I'm wearing it which is a huge plus for me. Cost wise I personally find this reasonable (I've previously been using Sisley which is double the price with no comparison to the finish). So there you have it, in case you hadn't already realised I love and highly recommend this product - believe in the hype, it's truly a must-have product.

I'm Nc20 in mac. I got this in shade Siberia and it was way too yellow.
This foundation has great coverage, however I do not recommend this for people with dry skin because this will dry your skin up even more. The finish isnt as great as I had hoped. Probably because my skin is so dry that this caused it to look a bit flaky and unnatural. This went back to Sephora.

I don't know what possessd me to buy this.
I am very picky with base products and usually stick to the few lines that deliver.
I was matched to two shades. Yes, two! One was way too orange and the other way too yellow. When first applied, one of the shades seemed perfect but when I checked in the back mirror of my car in day light (the ultimate colour match test for me), the foundation made itself home in all my fine lines and nestled into my pores and flakes.
I always apply primer and set with powder after foundation.
Thinking it was the method of application, I tried a paddle brush, buff with Sephora#55, fingers, wet sponge etc.
I don't mind working with products that take a little time to apply correctly like my KA SSE, but I will not work with products that don't work with me.

I love how this foundation makes my skin look natural and healthy. It has a satin finish with average cover, so if you're looking for a full coverage foundation then this isn't for you. But overall I've recieved alot of compliments on how good my skin looks while wearing this foundation and I do feel like this foundation has made my skin softer, which I love. I prefer this product over the Makeup Forever HD foundation and would buy this product again. Only downside to this is that there is no pump for the price you pay.

I loved the look of this foundation and the finish it left on my face. However, compared to my HG Dior Nude foundation, it didn't hold up - 1) I can feel it on my face, which is something that doesnt happen with Dior Nude 2) I HATE the container, I would much rather prefer a pump instead of tapping it on to the back of my hand.
The color is great, the finish is great, and the lasting power is great. I wouldnt repurchase though because it is $$$ and quite heavy.

I was so disappointed in this product. I got it in Ceylan, which was the nearest colour the SA at Sephora could find for me (unfortunately, Sephora isn't allowed to carry all their colours but I don't think it would have made a difference). It is way too yellow for my pink toned complexion and all the other shades that Nars makes that are the right depth of colour are, by Nars's own descriptions, too yellow or too peach. I'm NW 20 in MAC and can't imagine what people with my colouring would do if they wanted Nars.
At this price point, the bottle SHOULD have a pump...PERIOD!!! The foundation itself did not apply well on me - in addition to making me look yellow and sickly, it settled into the dreaded "dots" around and on my nose, in spite of wearing a primer (I've tried Nars's own primer, designed to work with this foundation and I've tried it with MAC Matte and others). Sometimes it applies "okay" but other times, I get the dots and it doesn't seem to matter whether I use my fingers, a sponge or Sephora's wonderful #55 brush.
I am very glad that I got a sample of this before buying (the SA suggested it since she was honest enough to say they just didn't have a good colour match for my skin so to try a sample first and see if I could live with it....bless her heart for her honesty; the only way I can LIVE with THIS foundation is if I want to look like "the LIVING dead" complete with DOTS!!!

Great foundation but I couldn't find a nice color match which is one of my biggest problems with foundations. I am Asian and NC40-42 in MAC. Barcelona was too light and Syracuse was too dark. Syracuse was also slightly peachy on me and there's no way I am buying both to mix together. Not for that price. Don't get me wrong, this is very nice but it wasnt' "WOW" enough for me to buy two bottles to mix up. The finish is a bit matte rather than glowy if you ask me. So if your'e expecting glow, don't buy this. The coverage is medium and it's blendable. But let me warn you..if you have dry skin, make sure your skin is well moisturized and exfoliated. If you don't, this foundation can accentuate dry matches. With a primer, this lasts on me almost all day. Overall, it is a good foundation and worth trying. I don't always splurge on makeup but if there was a color match, I wouldn't hesitate to buy this. There is no pump so I docked points for packaging. Considering how much it is for a bottle, it should come with a pump!!

Tackling the Personal Statement
Meaningful Moments at AIDS Community Care Montreal
Alumni Interviews with Winnie Hu: Talking Law with Daniel Chonchol and Peter Halprin
Tackling the Personal Statement
By Cassandra Ma, U3 Bachelor of Arts (Psychology) & CaPS Mentor Program and Peer Educator Program Coordinator
Nowadays, as it becomes increasingly difficult to find entry-level jobs with only a bachelor's degree, the competition for admission into graduate and professional schools is fiercer than ever. As much focus is placed on obtaining the highest GPA and entrance-exam scores possible, students may often forget that the personal statement is an equally important component of the application process. Admissions officers are looking for individuals who, on top of being academically successful, are interesting and articulate; thus, the content of your personal statement can fundamentally distinguish your application from a pool of similar candidates.
The critical thing to remember, when writing your personal statement, is to let your unique personality shine through, so as to let the reader (i.e. the admissions committee) gain some insight into your character. Be honest, rather than pretending to be the "ideal" applicant. Steer clear of simply reiterating everything on your CV – you will have the space to provide this information in various other areas of your application. The goal is to provide a deeper picture of the person you are, so pick one to two main events or aspects of yourself that you want to discuss the most, and elaborate on these. If you are stuck for ideas, go through each of your past experiences, and ask yourself:
- What did you learn from this experience? In what ways did it contribute to your personal growth?
- Were there any special initiatives or projects that you took on that reflect your skills, interests, and values?
- What problems did you encounter? How did you overcome these conflicts?
- How did you utilize your talents and abilities to achieve excellence, or improve your community?
- How did this experience influence your academic/career goals, and help you get to where you are now?
Link all of these ideas back to your overall motivations and aspirations, to address why you wish to attend that school in particular (remember: you should be writing different essays for each institution to which you are applying). Once you have finished your essay, read it over and ask yourself: "Is this personal statement something that only I could write?" If the answer is yes, then you're done!
Don't forget that CaPS is here to help! Career Advisors can provide you with constructive feedback on your personal statement; contact the front desk to book an appointment.
Meaningful Moments at AIDS Community Care Montreal
By Stephanie Gutnik, Bachelor of Arts (2011) and CaPS Scoop Journalist
There's no doubt that joining others to celebrate special landmarks is both fun and fulfilling. As 2012 marks the 25th anniversary of AIDS Community Care Montreal, the organization will be celebrating all year long – and they want you to join the festivities. Originally developed to meet the needs of the Anglophone community living with HIV/AIDS, ACCM has grown into a thriving society that both provides support to those living with HIV/AIDS, and promotes awareness and education for HIV/AIDS prevention throughout Montreal.
The volunteer positions available are abundant: translators, accountants, fundraisers, and multi-media/design positions are some of the roles currently up for grabs. Moreover, support group facilitators are brought on the team to work in a confidential, non-judgemental environment; upbeat workshop leaders visit high schools and CEGEPs, as well as host kiosks as part of the prevention arm of the organization. Boasting over 100 active volunteers (15-20 of who help out on a weekly basis), spending time within the open and welcoming environment of ACCM is not only a means to give back, but a great way to build your social network outside of the "McGill bubble".
The typical time commitment for an ACCM volunteer is four hours per week, over a span of at least six months. If you meet or exceed this minimum, the organization will gladly provide you with a reference letter. Furthermore, if you are looking to turn your volunteer position into a credited internship, ACCM is accommodating to course requirements, in terms of completing the necessary hours and obtaining an evaluation once the internship has come to a conclusion. Finally, if you plan on staying in Montreal during the summer, ACCM typically hires two students for an eight week contract.
There are several traits that one must possess in order to qualify for a volunteer position at ACCM. Given the dynamics of a community that combines both meaningful work with tight deadlines, as well as serious subject matter with the slight goofiness of sexual health, ACCM accepts people who are open-minded, non-judgemental, and willing to learn. While HIV-related knowledge is an asset, it can be acquired via the training provided to every assistant. In fact, a whole weekend in October is dedicated to volunteer training.
Interested? The application process is straightforward. Visit http://accmontreal.org to find the online volunteer application. Successful applicants will be interviewed by the organizers, so that you can be placed in a position that best matches your interests.
Going by the spirited conversation I shared with the Coordinator of Volunteers, it is clear that the people who belong to the ACCM community are caring toward, and accepting of, those with whom they interact; they are passionate for the cause and determined to make a difference. It sounds like they have found a way to have their cake and eat it too—a very happy birthday indeed.
Alumni Interviews with Winnie Hu: Talking Law with Daniel Chonchol and Peter Halprin
By Winnie Hu, U3 Bachelor of Arts (Political Science and English Literature) & CaPS Scoop Journalist
Walking under the florescent lights in the tiled tunnel of Peel Metro last February, I thought to myself: do I really want to go to law school? Back in May of my first year at McGill, I had quickly concluded that Law was the only way I could justify my Arts degree. Like many other BA students, I came to a fast realization that career opportunities tended to be more ambiguous for those of us who were not having an intimate affair with business and science. Law was the way to go and if I may speak candidly for a moment, that six-figure cheque had a lot to do with it.
But what if we have other vested interests? Or if we don't know whether we'll do well in the field of Law? If we are not familiar with the industry, then should we commit ourselves to it for promises of gold and the occasional fight for justice? The answer is "apply anyways". At least, that was the response I got from Daniel Chonchol, Manager of Electronic Communications at McGill's Department of Alumni Relations. He manages a team of three who work in writing, web design, and email specialization. Together, they build and strengthen McGill's global alumni network, both as a service to the students of the university, and to the school's coffers. But don't let his long career at McGill fool you.
Daniel hails from McGill Law and Columbia Journalism accompanied by diverse work experience both as a litigation lawyer and a CBC journalist. He's in his early fifties, and the reason his career took a few turns was because he wanted to be happy where he worked; the pace of life as a lawyer and journalist was too fast for him, and he likes exploring his creative potential. When asked whether he thinks he is overqualified for his job, Daniels says: "Not at all. Journalism is a no brainer and I use what I learned in law school every day. That's the beauty of it. You can work anywhere with a law degree. You can always apply it somehow."
On the other hand, Peter Halprin advises students to make informed decisions before studying law. Having graduated from McGill with a degree in Political Science and IDS in 2006, Peter went on to Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law in New York. Since then, he's been practicing primarily in commercial litigation at Anderson Kill & Olick, P.C. As a relatively recent graduate, Peter cautions that law school can be very expensive. Plus, with our current economy, new grads are facing increasing challenges in the job market. The fabled fat cheques that every law student fantasizes about are overstated. "People focus too much on the high end of the market," Peter says. "In reality that niche is accessible only to a small percentage of law graduates". In short, students need to know what they're doing before they take a plunge.
As for whether or not to take the leap? Peter believes passion is the key. With a background in debate and an appetite for public speaking, Peter had always been interested in being a lawyer. Nothing else matters if you like what you're doing; and to discover these aspirations, Peter suggests doing an internship with a law firm or working a position where law is applied to see if you enjoy the practice. If you don't know what kind of law you're interested in, don't worry. Everyone begins as a generalist – that's what the classes are for. And of course, get to know some alumni; they will be most helpful in getting a job.
So, to go into Law, or not to go into Law? Maybe that is not the question. Maybe it is better to ask: why Law? Think about what it really means to be a lawyer. Harvey Specter might look suave and powerful winning all his cases, but he also really enjoys arguing, working under pressure, and thinking outside the box. Going to law school is not necessarily a guarantee of happiness or a six-figure cheque, but a contracted promise for meticulous work. So whatever the case may be, your interests deserve serious consideration. It may be the only compass you can trust.

Statistics Canada - Study: How the older unemployed look for work, 2006 to 2010
August 2012
Older unemployed workers spent as much time on average looking for work as their younger counterparts did during the four-year period from 2006 to 2010.
Statistics Canada – Labour Force Survey
August 2012
After a decline in July, employment rose by 34,000 in August, the result of an increase in part-time work. The unemployment rate held steady at 7.3%.
Statistics Canada - Payroll employment, earnings and hours
June 2012
Average weekly earnings of non-farm payroll employees were $898.00 in June, up 0.6% from the previous month. On a year-over-year basis, earnings increased 3.0%.
Occupational highlight
Agricultural Representatives, Consultants and Specialists (NOC 2123)
Agricultural representatives, consultants and specialists provide assistance and advice to farmers on all aspects of farm management, cultivation, fertilization, harvesting, soil erosion and composition, disease prevention, nutrition, crop rotation and marketing. They are employed by businesses, institutions and governments that assist the farming community or they may be self-employed.
Job prospects in this occupation are fair. After a decrease in the early and mid 90s, the number of agricultural representatives, consultants and specialists increased slightly. This growth can be mainly explained by trends that influence the agriculture industry, government spending, laws that govern agriculture, scientific discovery and the introduction of new technologies. Despite the mixed outlook in the agricultural industry, increased needs for specialized agricultural consultants should lead to a slight increase in the number of agricultural representatives, consultants and specialists over the next few years.

You will recall Karl Rove had an on-air squabble over the network's polling analysts calling Ohio for President Obama in the Nov. 6 elections. Dick Morris had predicted a Mitt Romney landslide, which was quite the opposite. Um, Romney got the shellacking. Gabriel Sherman reports the explanation for the benching of both men is that the "election is over."

State police have done an internal review of their actions. The department has not responded to a request from The Courant for a copy of that report.
Any Sandy Hook review, experts said, should include evaluating the time it took local officers to get to the school, the decision not to enter immediately and the fact that state police portable radios didn't work in the school, a point Sedensky made in his report.
Valentin said the release of the 911 calls and a complete dispatch tape also would also help anyone analyzing Newtown's response.
"You need to know what the callers were telling the dispatchers and what dispatchers were relaying to the officers on the scene to really get a sense of what the officers encountered," Valentin said.
The Newtown Police Commission meets next week and at least one town official said he expects it will address the police response. The town official, who spoke on condition that a name note be used because of the sensitivity of the situation, said the department needs to answer legitimate questions about that day.
Newtown police have not released their active-shooter policy, which was 10 years old at the time of the Sandy Hook massacre. The town official said it may also be time for police to update that policy.
Kehoe did not return calls to The Courant seeking comment on the police response or Sedensky's report. In an interview with the Danbury News-Times. the chief said the department will "review everyone's actions" that morning.
In his report, Sedensky said that the police response to the school was appropriate and that officers didn't know whether there was more than one shooter.
"They went into the school to save those inside with the knowledge that someone might be waiting to take their lives,'' he wrote.
Newtown Police Union President Scott Ruszyzck said officers have no problem if a review is done because they acted appropriately and aggressively.
Ruszyzck said officers have always known their actions would be heavily scrutinized by the public and by other departments, and that everything they did that morning would be questioned to some extent.
"It is pretty hard to second guess officers, who responded to a chaotic situation like this one,11 months after it happened. Officers took the actions they thought were appropriate on that morning given the circumstances they confronted,'' Ruszyzck said.
Riccio, who was injured in a shooting in New Haven, said police are now trained to run toward the shooter. The theory being the quicker to the threat, the faster you can end the carnage.
"Officers are trained now you go towards the shooting and confront it,'' Riccio said. "That's not a comforting thought to run towards someone with a gun, but, unfortunately, that is the job.''

Figure 6.
EL case #19940 (Mag. 45K). A large putative virus factory is illustrated in which an assembly of regularly arranged membranes is embedded. Between the membranes are large numbers of individual dense particles. The membranes are not aligned in a straight line, indicating that the image is not due to blade chatter. The particles bound to membranes are interpreted to be the precursors to the putative complete virus, i.e., nascent VLP. Because of their high electron density and their size, which is smaller than that of the free particles, it is suggested that they consist of assemblies of nucleic acid without capsid protein. Similar membranes bearing VLP within putative virus factories were frequently observed in EL tissue. Bar = 1.2 μm.

38 year old man | Redondo Beach, CA, USA | Seeking women 28-36 within 15 miles of El Nido, CA
Everything I learned about getting out of the hood I learned from Snoop Dogg.
Three things you should know about me: Hiking is a new passion and I try to get lost out there as much as a possible. I loathe drama deep down to my core and will never put up with any! High maintenance women is not my scene. Habits: Sarcasm Listening to other conversations in the room (I'm captivated by people) Serious Addiction: Running. Some people do it for exercise, I do it for love. I enjoy trying new recipes and having friends/family eat my experiments. Cooking can be as therapeutic as much as it brings us all together. I want to find someone that I can laugh with and share all the opportunities life has to offer. There are places I've dreamed of visiting and adventures I've wanted to find the guts to shoot for and a partner in crime would be ideal. I'm loyal, very laid back, caring, supportive, sympathetic, energetic, and any other 'etic', imaginable. Mundane super market shopping could become a blast with that special someone. I love my family, friends, the beach, movies, running, any book, baseball, talking until the wee hours of the morning, drinks by the sand, my cruiser, meeting new people, running, working out, LAUGHING, work, coffee (Don't ask me why, but I love that stuff), potatoes, rice, toast (I'll explain later), going out for breakfast on the weekend, photography, tattoos. I don't: Party too much anymore. Hookup randomly. There is a dictionary next to my bed as well as the living room. I have always been hyper curious. If a topic arises that I am not familiar with I will ask many many questions or do the research online. God Bless Google. I make reminders in my phone to look something up when I get home. The stars and constellations have always been an interest. I hope to meet someone as intellectual as I am with a silly side to match my own. I love taking in new experiences so don't be surprised if we go to dive bar one night and a play the next. Communication is very important in any relationship. I always try to have a healthy discussion before it becomes a shouting match, with try being the operative word. I always had a tendency to clam up when I felt attacked and I have spent a lot of time to correct that flaw. Cool heads make for constructive talks. Ask me any question and I'll always answer. Try me. You should know: The ridiculousness of the bathroom mirror pic rules apply to women too.

Middle of the Road
The beach, Getty, Maui, Japan, an actual movie theater, and someday...Paris. I can't tell you why I'm drawn to the East Coast, but that will be my next trip before I leave the country again.
New Mexico State University, Las Cruces, NM
I am a huge movie junkie. I am just now experiencing a resurgence of interest in music; Band of Horses, My Morning Jacket, and tons more. I love to cook, REALLY love to cook. Don't judge, but potatoes are my favorite food.
I love running, working out, cruising the strand, anything to do with the water, watching any movie I can get my hands on. Trying new music (Right now I love Ray LaMontagne and Hey Marseilles) and new wines.
Unbroken was fantastic. I would love to hear any suggestions.

Tonight on NBCSN: Double your pleasure with Boston-Buffalo and San Jose-Calgary
Feb 8, 2012, 8:02 AM EDT
When last we saw the Sabres and Bruins get together, Paul Gaustad was duking it out with Milan Lucic and defending Ryan Miller's honor a game too late as the Bruins stormed back to win in a shootout. When the two face off in Buffalo tonight (7:30 p.m. ET on NBCSN) cooler heads might prevail, but with the Sabres trying to get back in the playoffs and the Bruins looking to fully get back on track, don't bet on it.
The Sabres are winners of three of their last four and are hoping to claw back into the Eastern Conference playoff race. With how jumbled things are at the bottom, Buffalo is 11 points back of Ottawa for eighth. Unfortunately for them, they get to deal with Boston tonight without Thomas Vanek who continues to be out with an upper body injury.
Boston, meanwhile, is coming off an impressive win over Washington on Sunday and hoping to keep their game up to continue righting the ship. A loss to Buffalo would mean all the good will they built up after that win on Sunday would be gone. The Bruins don't want to go back to square one and with how Tim Thomas has played since the White House kerfuffle, the Bruins are in good shape.
In tonight's nightcap, the Sharks and Flames face off in San Jose (10:00 p.m. ET on NBCSN) as a pair of teams playing streaky hockey. The Sharks recently have lost three in a row followed by winning three in a row but are coming off a bad 5-3 loss to Phoenix.
The trio of Joe Thornton, Logan Couture, and Patrick Marleau have been keying the Sharks offense while Antti Niemi has played strong in goal. If the Sharks can find consistency they'll be able to handle their brutal second half schedule a bit easier. They'll need all they can get against a Flames team that is back in the hunt for the playoffs.
Jarome Iginla's team has been alternating wins and losses like a true playoff bubble team this season. With the sort of roller coaster they've been on you'd think they would be more frustrated, instead they're keeping their heads up. Miikka Kiprusoff has been looking like the guy we've always remembered in goal while Iginla and Olli Jokinen have been leading the way offensively. Taking a chunk out of the Sharks could prove to be inspiring for Calgary as they're just three points out of the eighth spot in the Western Conference.

It was the first State of the Union address after the 9/11 attacks, and America was leading an invasion of Afghanistan in pursuit of Osama bin Laden. Fittingly, this is where President George W. Bush began on Jan. 29, 2002: "As we gather tonight, our nation is at war, our economy is in recession and the civilized world faces unprecedented dangers."
Then, about halfway through the address, Bush started to sketch the perceived perils and coined a three-word phrase: "axis of evil" - Iran, Iraq and North Korea. "In any of these cases, the price of indifference would be catastrophic."
It turned out to be advance billing for the bloodshed, brinksmanship and frustration that would dominate the Bush White House and be passed on to Barack Obama. Ten years later, America still is at war, and the three points on Bush's "axis" are profoundly different. North Korea has exploded two nuclear-test devices; Iran is alleged to harbor nuclear ambitions; and Iraq, which was to have been the democratic showcase of the Bush foreign policy, still is a shaky prospect bedeviled by factional violence.
Back on Jan. 29, 2002, as Bush delivered that State of the Union address, Iran seemed from the West's perspective to be the least menacing point on the axis. Its president, Mohammad Khatami, was a moderate, hard-line voices were muted and there were hints of breakthrough cooperation in Afghanistan after the U.S. toppled the Taliban, which was hated by Tehran.
But the U.S. deeply opposes Iran's aid to Lebanon's Hezbollah and the Palestinian faction Hamas, and today, Iran's Islamic leaders and their U.S.-led opponents are in a 21st century version of Cold War showdowns.
U.S. and European sanctions are taking aim at Iran's critical oil exports as part of escalating economic pressures. Cyber warfare and assassinations are claimed by Iran to be part of an Israeli campaign to abort its nuclear effort. Iran threatens to close the Strait of Hormuz, the pathway for about one-fifth of the world's oil, and U.S. and European warships have responded with a show of muscle.
"We're much closer to moving from a cold conflict to a hot conflict, because Iran has moved forward with their nuclear program," Karim Sadjadpour, an Iranian affairs expert at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, said in an interview with National Public Radio for the 10th anniversary of Bush's speech. "But I would say that Iran truly is more isolated than it's ever been."
Iran has offered to resume talks with world powers, but looks highly unlikely to agree to any conditions that would halt uranium enrichment. The U.S. and its allies fear that enrichment will lead to weapons-grade material. Iran insists it seeks reactors only for energy and medical research.
"It's reached a stage where it's hard to see how this impasse could be broken," said Mehrzad Boroujerdi, a Syracuse University professor who follows Iranian affairs. "The pressures on Iran are definitely hurting them, but it also causes the leadership to push back even harder."

Yes. The Mayo family remains dedicated to and active with Mayo Clinic. In 1919, Dr. William J. Mayo and his wife, Hattie, and Dr. Charles H. Mayo and his wife, Edith, gave the assets of Mayo's private medical practice and a significant amount of their personal savings to create a not-for-profit medical organization. Although the Mayo family no longer owns or controls Mayo Clinic, several descendants work here, and many members of the extended Mayo family provide generous philanthropic support.
From 1933 to 1988, we had a museum in Rochester, Minn., that went by various names — Mayo Museum of Medicine and Hygiene, Mayo Medical Museum, etc. This museum closed due to space constraints. The Barbara Woodward Lips Patient Education Center at Mayo Clinic undertook and enhanced the old museum's educational activities. Most exhibits from the old museum have been dismantled or placed in storage.

35 year old man | Yorba Linda, CA, USA | Seeking women 20-40 within 50 miles
Just looking for a gorgeous goofball.
**Membership canceled. Trying other venues. If you're curious and you're OK with cupids, I'm sure you can find me elsewhere. And remember: there's plenty of fish in the sea. :)** I hate to admit it, but I'm a nice guy. Not that that is bad... but girls tend to go for the bad boys. That doesn't mean I don't have my down falls. And I'm not one to let people walk all over me. But ultimately, I'm a pretty decent human being. That being said, I'm also quirky with a weird sense of humor. I laugh often about the little absurdities of life. And I like to get out there and enjoy what it has to offer. I also make a lot of corny jokes. And some intelligent ones. So if you're not laughing, at least I will be. I like unique, intelligent women. And I appreciate when their level of intelligence matches their attractiveness. I also don't really discriminate: you can be tattooed and foul-mouthed or you can be the buttoned-up librarian type. As long as you're tolerant of other people's differences, and you're understanding of mine... I'm sure we'll get along splendidly. Yes, I did just use the word, splendidly. Also, despite my rough exterior... I'm a romantic and a big softy. Like my dad. I'm not saying I'm a crybaby or anything like that. Ok, so maybe I tear up at really sad moments during a great movie. I guess what I'm trying to say is I have a good heart. Only close friends and family get to see it. Maybe you'll be lucky enough to see it too. That's it for now. If you'd like to know more, just ask.

I exercise 3-4 times per week.

I would love to travel more. I have yet to live up to my expectations. One of my favorite places to visit right now is San Francisco. That city has so many interesting stores and restaurants. And the people are so laid back.
Art Center College of Design, Pasadena, CA
I like all sorts of music. Some are obscure, some not. A few favorites are: Melvins, Radiohead, Tool, Alice in Chains, Queens of the Stone Age, NIN, Oingo Boingo. I like good movies, especially independents and sci fi. HBO rocks. I love True Blood
Love trying new foods. Love seeing new art and live bands. Mountain biking. Hiking. Snow boarding. Hanging with friends is always good though. I play bass guitar and sing as well. I also have a motorcycle. Don't worry. I'm pretty safe.
I use to read more. But I prefer Graphic Novels when I have the time. I'm a nerd at heart. A few that I recommend are Y The Last Man and the Walking Dead. Favorite book is Hitchhiker's Guide... very Monty Pythonesque. I'm a fan of Clive Barker.

The Indians have signed infielder Mike Aviles to a two-year contract with a club option for the 2015 season. Financial terms were not immediately available. Aviles, who was acquired in a trade from Toronto in November, gives the Indians depth at second base and shortstop. He spent last season as Boston's primary shortstop, batting .250 with 13 homers and 60 RBIs in 136 games. The 31-year-old was eligible for salary arbitration before agreeing to the deal. The Indians have not gone to an arbitration hearing with a player since 1991. Aviles also posted a career-high in doubles (28) last season and matched personal bests in extra-base hits (41) and steals (14).

Why is it that every person that claims ŌĆśnot-to-be-a-cookŌĆÖ has a recipe that everyone wants?
Growing up, Von Smith had a love for the quarterback position.
As a senior at West Oktibbeha, he is playing the position and the game he loves.
"When I was young, I always wanted to be the guy that threw the ball," Smith said. "Coach (Adam) Lowrey has taught me how to read defenses. I can step out on the field and look at a defense and know what we can use."
Justin Williams found out during the summer that he was going to be the next starting quarterback of the East Oktibbeha Titans.
Since then he has worked on being the type of leader that East Oktibbeha coach Randy Brooks expects him to be.
Through the first four games for the Titans this season, Brooks likes what he sees from the junior signal caller.
There are some big division football games on the schedule this Friday for area high school teams.
When a squad starts experiencing a little bit of success, the importance of games becomes bigger and bigger.
Take the East Oktibbeha Titans for example.
The Starkville School District Board of Trustees will hold a special meeting at noon Tuesday at the Greensboro Center to discuss its annual goals and calendar, take a legislative survey from the Mississippi School Boards Association and approve an agreement between the SSD and CompassLearning, Inc.
David Shaw remembers the day the Thad Cochran Research Park opened its third incubator building about a year ago, because it was the same day as the groundbreaking ceremony for its fourth incubator building.
The Starkville Board of Aldermen will consider reopening the western entrances of Douglas McArthur Drive, Redbud Drive and Maple Drive at its meeting 5:30 today in the City Hall courtroom.
The board ordered the entrances from Stark Road to be closed off in 1999 when it was determined there was too high a volume of traffic using them.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks – interviewed at ABG (Pittsburgh, PA) in January 2010.
The interview process is very well structured and the HR manager communicated all information timely and accurately. Phone interview, hiring manager and HR manager panel interview, and finally a phone interview with the department manager. All of the managers were very considerate and asked questions that were relevant to the job duties. Casual conversation was acceptable,but, was never in excess. The screening checks were done very timely and the results and offer were communicated very timely. The culture is very respectful of the employees and direction from senior management is clear and communicated each Monday. Each employee, regardless of their position, is treated with respect and as a valued contributor. Advise to applicants: research the company and be prepared to discuss broadbased questions as well as your specific skills. The managers do not ask the 'sell me this pen' type of questions, but, you will want to communicate how you will contribute to the company. Read the job description carefully. The interviews will follow the responsibilities listed.
Interview Questions
- Describe how you would approach a solution that has been unfullfilled for 18 months? 1 Answer
The offer was within my salary requirements, but, I do not think there was any negotiation ability. Read your offer carefully as the bonus portion can be confusing.

A set of reflections from a black South African mother and activist who is confronted by the truth of her daughter's words and embracing the "weirdness" of their "dark brown and peach" family.
A sampling of our best picks of the week on everything from vocation to multitasking, honoring teachers and Alzheimer's patients. And some ways to join On Being in the studio or on your iPad.
With the overwhelming angst of privilege, our columnist confesses to her own inclinations to participate in Twitter testimonies of white privilege. But, it's no substitute for the moral imagination required to acknowledge the emotional lives of others.
A black theologian talks with one of America's leading Old Testament scholars about Ferguson and the place of protest and prophecy in our faith, the place for our rage, the need for honest talk, the role of education in protest, and the transformative potential of radicality.
With the decisions about the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner, powerful words from a Holocaust survivor and essays dealing with grief and loss, systemic solutions, and polls that polarize.
With the grand jury's decision not to indict the police officer who killed Michael Brown, a school of children's uncommon silence in New Mexico leads the way to expressing grief and finding a role for our anger.

String theorist S. James Gates speaks eloquently and thoughtfully about how he discovered Einstein's passion for the problem of racism, and his "capacity for ethical engagement and his scientific creativity."
On Thursday night before the debate, I wrote something that meant a great deal to me. It was about a trip I made to Ole Miss in August and the incredible symbolism of that the debate on that campus, a cultural triumph it signified far larger than who won or lost.
The drama in financial markets nearly stopped the debate completely, and overshadowed a few hours of reflection we might have allowed ourselves on race. But Scott Simon did a lovely piece on Saturday morning, and Slate produced this: "Negro to Address Ole Miss Class" (The headline you won't be reading about tonight's presidential debate.) A white presidential candidate in civil debate against a black presidential candidate is a monumental, quiet victory of a milestone worth pondering, and celebrating, in a world in which bad news gets all the attention.
Our managing producer takes a sharp look at our journalistic profession's cultural appropriation of stereotypes in the political season.

This weekly course covers the most common questions videographers encounter when shooting and editing with DSLR cameras, from choosing a frame size and frame rate to understanding moiré. Authors Rich Harrington and Robbie Carman will also help you understand the impacts of compression and the difference between cropped (or micro 4/3rds) and full-sized sensors in cameras, and much more. This continual FAQ guide is a handy way to find the answers to the questions that plague you the most.
Hi. My name is Rich Harrington. >> And, I'm Robbie Carmen. >> And, Rob this week, we've got a whole show all about sliders. >> Yea, Rich if you've ever gone on Vimeo or YouTube and search for you know, the key phrase, you know, DSLR, you've probably seen a shot on a slider. Sliders are a way of adding movement into what would be a static shot. And sliders come in various shapes and sizes. From, you know, table top ones, ones that you can mount on, you know, light stands The very long sliders that were used in bigger productions as well.
>> Yeah and there are other terms that you'll hear. Really, this is a whole of technology. For example, you might hear a slider being referred to a something more like this device where there is a rail system and it can move in between, but you'll also hear people talk about dialing, essentially dialing is used to slide the camera from side to side. Or, you know, moving in and out. There's all sorts of different types of movement that you'll see. Yeah, let's hold that end up there for a second. This is a slider that's often used to be mounted on two light stands. And it moves smoothly through.
And the idea is, you want to get the tension right. So it moves quite nicely. >> Yeah absolutely, and this week we're going to explore different types of sliders from ones like this to tabletop ones to larger or larger sliders. And we're also going to talk about some of the technique that's involved, in using the slider. Like a lot of other things we've talked about on previous episodes which .This is definitely something that you want to be able to practice before you go out in the field. But I think you'll agree, that when executed properly, a nice deliberate sliding move adds a lot of dynamic, you know, feel to a piece.
>> Well you say deliberate, and I think that that's important. For example, we're going to be taking a look at a music video shoot in just a second. And on this shoot we're going to be working with DP Kevin Bradley. And he's going to be operating a slider. Now the thing is, is that, that was one camera angle of six. >> Yeah. >> I've seen people become a bit addicted to slider moves. >> It's haunting. >> It's like, it's sliding. It's in, it's out, it's like not every shot needs to have a move. >> I agree, I mean in the best, you know the best, you know example of this is when it's invisible. You know, if you are a noticing when you're watching something that.
Oh yeah, that's a slide, you know. >> Yeah >> It's like, that's not, that's not good art. >> I like it to reveal, like, the establishing shot in a scene. You know, like, we're going to establish oh, we're seeing him in his car as he's writing his song lyrics. It's, you know, sliding past the foliage. We're in the forest. It helps Give you a sense of the space, but if every move is a slide move, I just get dizzy. >> Yeah, and depending on what you're doing, there's different practical uses of it to. For example, if you're doing a product shot, you might do a slide or a dolly around something or, you know, by, you know, Slide by it to reveal it, that kind of thing.
The point is, I agree with you Rich, that you need to have motivation in your slides, and don't go out there and just slide just for the fun of it. I mean, you can slide for the fun of it. >> Yeah. >> But the best slides and the best techniques are when some purposeful and not to be too obvious. >> All right. Well, when we come back, we're going to take a look at doing this on a table top move, a real simple piece of equipment that you can use for studio shooting or shooting products. Then we're going to head out into the field.

Sony's HKC-T1500 Extension Block Adapter functions as a "split" adapter for HDC-1400/1500 series HD camcorders, separating the image sensor assembly from the camera's body and extending it up to 50 meters away (via optional multicore cable). This provides added flexibility to Sony's multi-format HD cameras, whose tethered CCD block and lens can now snake their way into hard-to-reach areas and provide uniquely framed POV shots--whether handheld, car-mounted, or on the end of a jib.
While compact and easily swapped on or off, the HKC-T1500 maintains the full range of shooting formats, not sacrificing image quality for convenience. All the base camera's HD progressive and interlace modes, from 24p to 1080i, can be used, delivering the highest resolution in an unusually small--and versatile--form factor.
- Compact Imaging Assembly
- When the CCD block is fitted to the split adapter, it provides a very compact unit, ideal for shooting in tight spaces--such as in a car, or for use on a motorcycle. It may be handheld, or fitted to any traditional camera mounts.
- Light Weight
- The imaging assembly is also ideal where weight is critical, such as for prolonged handheld shooting.
- Maximum Performance
- The HDC-1500 retains full performance when used in the split adapter, giving much higher resolution than can be obtained from other dedicated compact cameras.
- Quick Conversion Between Modes
- The HDC-1500 optical assembly can be quickly converted between normal and "split" operation, avoiding the need for a specialist compact camera.
- Full Range of Shooting Formats
There is no limitation to operating format once the camera is fitted to the HKC-T1500--all HD format standards are available:
- Interlace 1080i modes - 1080/59.94i, 50i
- Progressive 1080P modes - 1080/23.98p, 29.97p, 24p, 25p, 50p*, 60p*
- Progressive 720P mode - 720/59.94p, 50p

ORLANDO - The lead defense attorney for Casey Anthony says he is happy that his client was found not guilty of killing her toddler daughter, but that there are no winners in this case.
Attorney Jose Baez said Tuesday that 2-year-old Caylee Anthony died far too soon and that he has mixed feelings about the case. He says he is ecstatic for Casey Anthony and wants her to be able to grieve and grow, and somehow get her life back together.
The jury did convict Casey Anthony on four counts of lying to law enforcement.
Baez also acknowledged prosecutors, calling called them a fine group of attorneys.

She was found as a stray by a kind woman, who took her in and gave her shelter and comfort during winter's brutal wrath. But alas, it was not meant to be a permanent home, and now Charlotte is here, waiting to find a that 'purr'fect forever family!
At just 1 year of age, Charlotte is still full of spunk and energy- she will amuse you as she plays with toys and investigates all curiousities in the home. But since she is past the kitten craziness of her younger counterparts, Charlotte won't keep you awake at night, climbing the walls etc.
Charlotte would definitely appreciate a loving lap to curl up in at night, and someone special to gently stroke her soft gray fur. For the right family, Charlotte will be a devoted companion. But that won't happen until someone walks in and says...

I want to thank Prof. Harriet Kuhnlein for her introduction to this thread. I only found out about it yesterday, so I have not been able to read it in its entirety. I did want to introduce myself to the group and let you know that I am interested in indigenous methods of food processing and preparation, particularly in Africa. Related to this topic, I have been working mostly in Ethiopia for the last few years. In Edward's introduction he stated, "Many people rely on methods based on the scientific approach and thus IKS may be at the verge of extinction." I would hope that we didn't consider science and IKS as mutually exclusive. I believe many of the indigenous ways of food preparation reflect years of womankind's curiosity creativity focused on the acquisition of a sufficiently healthful diet, not so different from the same curiosity that drives much of science.

Look to the smart grid for smart city lessons (Part 2)
By: SGN Staff
By Sterling Hughes
In part one of this series, we paved the five step on-ramp to 'Smart City' by looking at smart street lights as an application entry point for a citywide network. We know that cities such as Copenhagen and Paris are realizing as much as an 80 percent increase in ROI by replacing legacy streetlights. And, in the process, are implementing a standards-based canopy that enables them to break down organizational silos and establish a platform for future Smart City applications.
To understand some of the imperatives in building such networks, let's take a closer look at the experience of utilities - in many cases these are risk-averse organizations that have overcome barriers in building their own machine-to-machine (m2m) networks through smart grid initiatives. Utilities initially valued the smart grid primarily for the operational savings it could yield but, with the right technology decisions, have been able to extend the value and impact of their investments. Now, the opportunity has arisen for cities to do the same.
Leveraging Industry Standards
Standards are at the heart of every technological revolution. We've seen this occur throughout history as the telecom, transportation and industrial manufacturing industries - and of course, the Internet - have evolved. Smart grid networks also deliver their full potential when the industry embraces a set of common standards. For utilities, standardization opened the way to choose among the best meters or thermostats, as well as to integrate back-office software.
Smart City applications will be similar. With smart street lights, operators should demand flexibility and choice in photocells and luminaires combined with agile control system integration. Communication systems must implement standards that can be implemented by multiple companies, to avoid vendor lock-in.
With lighting control management software, adherence is an important standard to drive acceptance. An exciting development in the lighting industry is the TALQ Consortium, where the industry has come together to define what plugs into outdoor lighting networks, on devices such as light points controllers, gateways, segment controllers and sensors, to save energy and drive maintenance optimization.
When it comes to hardware and system-level functional specifications, the industry is very active working with the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) committee to help set parameters for photocells. Many of the participants in the ANSI committee are utilities, with a long experience implementing smart grid standards. ANSI C136 sets Standards for Roadway and Area Lighting for a variety of lighting situations, such as Luminaire Field Identification.
Silver Spring aims to honor choice for each city's environment. Because open standards are the basis of our business, Silver Spring's broad ecosystem has over 75 partners, including LED Roadway Lighting, SELC, and Sunrise Technologies.
At the start of every project, Silver Spring can design a scalable mesh network design plan to implement an efficient and effective communications network within a service territory, including strategy on what wireless carriers will best suit the needs of a cityscape.
Extensible Platforms for the Future
Providing a common network for both smart grid and Smart City infrastructure enables for the platform benefits to increase with each new application, whatever the entry point for the network. An investment in a Smart City application such as intelligent street lights can pay for the network canopy for a smart grid, or vice versa.
For example, looking at smart street lights, once they are rolled out adding multiple applications strengthens the value of a network. The more sensor nodes and routers that are connected, the stronger the web of an outdoor radio network becomes to evolve into things like Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), Demand Response (DR) and Distribution Automation (DA).
Your Smart City story may begin with smart street lights, but to achieve maximum cost and energy savings, additional city assets such as intelligent traffic controls, audio and video surveillance, pollution sensors, EV charging infrastructure and smart digital signage, can be added to the network as soon as there is a business need.
Industry Leaders Gather at Smart City Expo, Barcelona
Our experience shows that utilities unlocked significant value by leveraging a single IPv6 network to automate meter services alongside additional applications such as demand response (DR) and distribution automation (DA). Smart street lights may serve as the initial Smart City application, but communities will want to support a variety of services.
By taking a page from the smart grid book of imperatives, cities can make decisions that will lighten the load of adding other Smart City applications in the future.
Silver Spring Networks will be joining city leaders, technology providers, and many of the industry's thought-leaders at the Smart City Expo World Congress in Barcelona November 19-21. Come join us to learn more about the imperatives critical to the success of your Smart City program.
Sterling Hughes, Head of Advanced Technology, has been with Silver Spring Networks since 2004, and currently heads up development for new market initiatives, including Silver Spring's Smart Cities business and many of its international activities. While at Silver Spring, Hughes has held multiple roles, most notably leading the design and development of Silver Spring's IPv6 networking fabric and, in the process, authoring more than 10 domestic and international wireless networking patents. Prior to joining Silver Spring, Hughes was one of the core developers of the PHP programming language and spent 10 years working on high-performance websites, including Friendster, FAST Search & Transfer, and Yahoo!.
