Great PC! Good quality SS stockpot
Ross from Woodland, CA – Verified Buyer
Well designed lid for safety. Chef Bobby Flay uses this model in his Youtube video. Made in France quality steel and aluminum disk clad bottom. Timer on it is kinda silly, but otherwise really good.

These adorable Knee High Bunnies from Fiskars are made with colorful knee high socks. They're great for tossing in an Easter basket or making for a new baby gift. These sock crafts are perfect for any level of sewist, and are embellished with felt and buttons.

- Craft Felt
- Polyfil Stuffing
With spring just around the corner, what little one wouldn't squeal with delight upon receiving one of these adorable bunny softies? They will make for the perfect addition to any Easter basket, alongside those candy-filled eggs. Let me show you how you can make your very own with in just a few hours time.
The supplies you will need to complete one bunny are: one pair knee-high socks, craft felt sheets in coordinating colors, buttons, white twine, embroidery floss, embroidery needle, pins, Shape Templates – Mixed Shapes and Mixed Borders, Shape Templates – Super Sized Circles, Shape Templates – Super Sized Ovals, sharp scissors, pencil or marker and a sewing machine (optional).
For the face pieces, trace and cut two circles onto one color of felt using the inside of the smallest circle from the Shape Templates – Super Sized Circle package. You also need to trace and cut a heart and a circle from a contrasting, but coordinating color of felt.
Arrange face pieces as shown and choose which color buttons and embroidery floss will best coordinating with your socks and felt choices.
To create the face detail, you will first center the smaller circle in the middle of one of the larger circles and pin. Then you will embellish around the outer edge of the small circle with a blanket stitch. Layer the heart, upside down, over the circle and embellish with a blanket stitch.
Add more detail by cutting several 3" lengths of white twine and stitching them on for the whiskers in addition to buttons for the eyes and a set of layered buttons for the nose.
Lay your pair of socks on your work surface and cut off the bottom of the socks just below the heel. These pieces will become the bunny's ears.
Turn each sock inside out and sew a seam by hand or with a machine start at the outer edge of each side of the toe seam and gradually tapering inward leaving a 1" width opening at the bottom. (see black marker lines in the photo as a guideline)Turn socks inside out and stuff with stuffing. Then sandwich the open seams in between the front embellished piece of the face and the plain back piece. Pin in place. Then blanket stitch ¼" in from the edge all the way around making sure to stuff the face with stuffing before stitching it completely closed.
From the remaining sock pieces, cut off the fabric just below the band and just above the ankle. These pieces will become the bunny's arms and legs. Turn the socks inside out and sew one straight line down the length of the sock slightly to the left of center, rounding the seam out toward the outside edge. Repeat again slightly to the right of center, rounding the seam out toward the right outside edge. Trim the pieces apart between the middle seams.Turn right side out and add desired amount of stuffing.For body, trace and cut two ovals from the smallest inside oval in the Shapes Template – Super Sized Ovals package. For the inside of the belly detail, trace and cut the oval from the Shapes Template – Mixed Shapes and Mixed Borders package. Add hand-stitched embellishing using a blanket stitch.
Sandwich arms and legs between the two belly pieces and add a blanket stitch, ¼" from the outside edge all the way around making sure to stitch the arms and legs in place as you go. Before closing the seam completely, add stuffing to the belly.
- This bunny can be easily adapted as a gift for the little gentlemen in your life by simply choosing knee-high socks in an appropriate color combination.

PRLog - Oct. 20, 2012 - DENVILLE, N.J. -- Despite of millions of dollars in educating the public about exercise and diet, Americans are getting overweight and obese every day. In the current trend, over 40% Americans will be obese by year 2030. "This has to stop," says Carey Yang, a fitness coach, certified personal trainer and owner of Beyond Fitness Solutions in Morris County, NJ.
Morris County NJ Personal Trainer Carey Yang
Yang is the owner and master personal trainer at Beyond Fitness Solutions, LLC -- a leading in-home personal training and weight-loss management company serving and helping clients in Morris County, Sussex County, Passaic County, Essex County and Somerset County areas in New Jersey.
"I have trained and coached countless people to lose weight, get in shape with amazing results," Yang says. "The problem is that no matter how promising the weight loss program is or how good the trainer looks, the results will still take time. Most people quit in the first month when they don't see their body transformation as we're living in a culture of instant gratification."
Here are the top 10 reasons why Morris County NJ personal trainer Carey Yang is the top choice of in-home personal training services for weight loss and fitness:
- Accountability:

- Efficiency: We know you're busy, we train you at your convenience, so you can continue with your day.
- Empowerment:
- Guaranteed: We guarantee you will get the results you want, as quickly as possible, and with 100% certainty. Simply put, there is nothing or no one else who will do that for you.
- Track Record: We've helped local residents successfully lose weight, look great and feel like a million bucks. Follow our system and you will do the same!

PARK CITY, Utah — The stars have gone home. Or, that's what they tell me.
It's the sixth day of 2011's 11-day Sundance Film Festival, and the preening, posing, promoting magazine faces have returned to the Los Angeles smog to troll for their next scripts. Those of us remaining just want to see some movies.
"Who is that?" someone asks.
I shrug.
"Is it someone famous?" someone else asks.
I shrug.
A woman tells me he is Denis Villeneuve, a French Canadian director whose film, "Incendies," was nominated for a foreign language Academy Award that very morning. So that's sort of a star. I guess. But then that's the second half of Sundance; you take your celebrity where you can get it. Or, better still, you don't get it at all.
The nation's most iconic film festival is well-known for its North Face-clad starlets, but after a few days those pretty folk go home and are replaced with a less-forbidding, less-chaotic and less-expensive Sundance. Hotels slash prices. Restaurant waits drop below two hours or disappear altogether. Movie tickets become easier to find.
For the second half of Sundance, Park City returns from LA East to charming mountain town of 7,500. Because those movie folk apparently aren't so good on the snow, it also is among the best times of year to ski here, making Sundance's second half an ideal winter escape.
Sundance's back half is so mellow that I arrived in Park City with no movie tickets but a simple plan: stand in line to buy last-minute seats to as many films as I could. And when I needed a break, I'd ski those empty slopes.
On my first day, a Tuesday, I began by heading to The Egyptian, the lone participating theater in downtown Park City (nine theaters in town participate in the festival). Moviegoers already were in line for "A Few Days of Respite," a story of two gay Iranian men who flee to France.
Like most Sundance movies, "A Few Days of Respite" was sold out, which left me to embark on a festival tradition: the wait list. Almost every showing of every movie has one, and it's among Sundance's highest-stakes games. Here's how it works: At least two hours before showtime (up to three for movies in high demand), line up at the theater. Two hours before the movie begins, festival workers pass out numbers based on your place in line.
You're free to leave, but you must be back 30 minutes before the screening to line up again by number (a minute late and you're out). Then you wait while the remaining tickets are sold for $15 apiece. Either you get one or word slowly trickles back that the show is sold out.
For "A Few Days of Respite," I got No. 16.
"Will that get me in?" I asked a Sundance worker.
"It should," he said. "Over the weekend, we were filling up pretty quick. People were bringing entourages of 30, which squeezed a lot of people out."
I took a place behind seven others in an underground gangway. We waited for 40 minutes before another Sundance worker announced she had 10 tickets that the film's director, who would join us in the screening, didn't need. We all got in — free.
"Best wait list ever!" she said. And unlikely to have happened a few days earlier.

Dr. William J. Hedden's Ratings
I have recently used Dr. Hedden for my breast augmentation. I was extremely pleased with the outcome of my surgery. I have always been very nervous to see doctors for any reason but he made me feel so comfortable and explained the entire procedure in detail. His staff was very nice and helpful. I feel like his whole staff took time with me and I never felt rushed even though he had other patients to see. I had done a lot of research on other phyisicans in the area but he by far exceeded my expectations. I would recommend him and have recommended him to anyone interested in any type of plastic surgery, especially breast augmentation.

I have used Dr. Hedden for both Breast augmentations . I had saline implants for 10 years and decided to switch to Silicone and I love them . I guess people would rather go to a plastic surgeon that nobody uses . Yes , he's very busy but always answered all my questions . I suggest going in with a list and writing everything down . Also your packet you receive with instructions before surgery is pretty much common sense and not hard to read . I don't live 3 hours away but he's pretty good if people from all around the U.S. are using him . I Won't use anybody but him .Also if i would have felt a bad vibe from the staff before surgery then I wouldn't go back ?? Too many Negative Nancy's .. Bless it !! I love Dr.Hedden , his staff and all the above . I would highly recommend him to all my friends which have all used him as well !!

I had been saving up and wanting breast implants for 10 years. I looked to Dr. Hedden because of the affordable prices. I was warned before hand by a friend of mine who had used him a few years prior saying that she bottomed out and wasn't pleased with his work. I looked him up online and read reviews. They didn't seem bad. In may of 2014 I had my procedure. The staff herded me in and out like cattle, and didn't seem to really know what was going on. I live over 2 hours away and took off work. my first appointment prior to surgery i received a phone call 30 mins before my appointment time, after i was already in birmingham and i was told to reschedule. I went off and told them i was here and already took off work. The staff was very rude and rushed me. The lady at the front desk had no idea how much i was supposed to pay and over charged me, after I explained to her I had already put money down she made it right. The nurses rushed me and were ready to go home, they forgot to do my blood work that needed to be done 2 weeks before surgery (which I had paid for but had to go to a facility at home and spend more money to have it done and sent to them. meaning I had to take off work again.) This made me hesitant but Dr. Hedden assured me everything would be fine. I chose 450 cc saline and he assured me they would look great. I loved my size, but not too long after my procedure I noticed at three months they were taking an odd shape. My nipple was riding high and literally peaking out of every bathing suit and bra. At 6 months I scheduled an appointment to see Dr. Hedden. Might I add that I had done everything I was instructed to do. No work outs, used the bra I was told to wear. He then acknowledged that I had bottomed out and said it could be due to me doing something to cause it. You could literally see the implant bag beneath my actual breast tissue along with an indention. I was furious because I had followed all instructions as I was told, and out around $3500 by the end of it. He then told me he could fix them for another $800 by doing a bilateral tacking (which I read in a review that he doesn't charge for lateral drifting of the implants, but I was) .. on top of more money that I would miss from leaving work, gas to Birmingham and hotel stays. That procedure was done in January of 2015. By early February I noticed them doing the exact same thing, so I sent pics and a text. No response. It is now March and they are looking worse. I sent another email and finally heard back. AGAIN IT WAS SUGGESTED THAT I MIGHT HAVE DONE SOMETHING TO CAUSE THIS. I HAD EXPLAINED IN MY EMAIL THAT I FOLLOWED ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND I WAS INFORMED THAT NOW IT WAS MY ANATOMY TO BLAME. I understand there is a chance of them bottoming out again( MAYBE SEVERAL YEARS LATER).. BUT NOT A MONTH AFTER MY PROCEDURE & AFTER THE SWELLING WENT DOWN!! I was given options (that are going to cost me more money) one being $5,000. I just want to say, if you are going to get breast implants.. there is no cheap alternative. I got what I paid for and now it is going to cost me AROUND $10,000 AT THE END OF IT ALL (INCLUDING WHAT I PAID DR. HEDDEN) to make them look right. I am now in search for a new Dr. I am very disappointed and out of a lot of money. I HAVE TRIED TO BE PATIENT AND UNDERSTANDING, BUT WHEN I AM GETTING BLAMED FOR A BAD BOOB JOB, IT HIGHLY INFURIATES ME!! NOT ONCE DID HE MENTION THAT HE POSSIBLY COULD'VE OVER DISSECTED MY POCKETS. NOW I HAVE AN IMPLANT BAG PEAKING OUT OF THE SIDE OF MY BIKINI FOR THE SUMMER OR UNTIL I CAN AFFORD TO GET THEM FIXED AGAIN. HE CAN BE CHARMING AND REASSURING. I HAD FAITH IN HIM AND I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED. I think he could be a good Dr. but he has waaaaay too many patients.

Dr. Hedden is one of the finest doctors I have every dealt with. If I ever had an emergency he would see me promptly with no appointment. His staff always knew me and was super professional.

Dr Hedden has been amazing. I had very involved surgery but everything worked well. Even the few pRobles that cropped up were handled quickly and professionally.
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][2609845].votes_count ]]
Dr. Hedden was good. He did seem busy, maybe lack of the planning with the office staff. I live 2 hours away.
My first visit was very discouraging. I was supposed to have my consultation, blood work etc done. I was very discouraged. 1st of all The staff didn't even seem to know that i was scheduled for an appointment... since it was a late appointment they also seemed ready to go because it was the end of the day. ( I had took off of work and drove for 2 hours, was on time.. actually 45 mins early) I had already made a deposit a month in advance. 2nd, The front lady didn't realize that I had already made a hefty deposit and over charged me.. which was corrected after I showed my statements. It was like they really had no clue as to what was going on and wanted me out of there . 3rd, they were in such a hurry that I didn't even feel like I was able to discuss much of anything. I asked the nurses about sizes and they seemed annoyed. By the end of my "15 min" visit the nurse ran out and didn't even get my blood work. Which I had to take off work again and pay extra to have a lab do locally.
The day of surgery, I had explained my concerns to Dr. Hedden. He was very compassionate and reassuring. The nurse was pleasant and comforting in answering my questions. The surgery went well.
I had some "freak out" moments during recovery, and the nursing staff as well as Dr. Hedden were good about returning emails, phone calls, etc and answering my questions of concern.
My 2 week check up, I took off work and drove 2 hours to my appointment. The office staff called me 45 mins before my appointment and asked me to reschedule because they were running behind. I was 10 mins from the building. I felt outraged, I was 30 mins early and had done my part. For them to call me maybe that morning or the day before what have been more comprehendible. But not 45 mins before my appointment and 10 mins before my arrival time. I could understand if maybe I was a local patient, but not an out of town patient. They went ahead and took me with little wait time. Dr. Hedden was apologetic and even gave me a bottle of scar gel. His nurse was great in answering my questions.
I feel like the real problem is the office staff. They seem unorganized, unprofessional, and uncompassionate. $3500 is a lot of money to me.. and to feel like I'm being heard in and out like cattle is a little disappointing.
As far as my results, I am at 5 months. I did form a bit of double bubble in the left breast. It also slants in the inner cleavage. As far as both breast goes they have dropped to the point to where I'm scared that I might have bottomed out. You can literally see the form of an implant at the bottom and sides of my breast. I am not sure if its normal or not. I did go with 475 cc's and am small. I realize that I might've been too big and wish I would have went with an internal bra to keep them from bottoming out. The left breast's implant sits so low that my nipple will not fit into a bra or bathing suit without peaking out of the top. Both nipples sit high while the implant is beneath if that makes any sense. I am going for my check up this Tuesday and hope that I just had a bad experience and that that's not how they normally operate. His price is great.. but as far as service (staff) I felt like I got what I had paid for. :(

I had my tuba breast Aug back in July and man oh man I am very satisfied with Dr heddens work. He did an amazing job! The staff wasn't as professional as they should of been but that has nothing to do with the DR. I had a little complication but he was able to get me right in and gave me more antibiotics and that fixed the problem. I would recommend him to anyone that was interested in having the procedure done. He is truly a pro at what he does! CW

Dr. Hedden is busy and I get that. However he rushes his patients and doesn't explain well! Instead of hearing you out he runs through the consultation and leaves. I hate Smart Lipo with his secondary doctor and I was not impressed. I love their spa but the surgical clinic needs help!

I was optimistic about my first consultation with Dr. Hedden, all the reviews for breast implants were positive and the price was good. I thought it would be great. I was wrong. He wasn't even friendly when he came in, I could tell he felt rushed and when I began asking him questions he cut me off three different times because he assumed I was asking him what size implants I should get. He seemed annoyed like he has heard this a million times, and I am sure he does have many patients asking him what size would be best. But that was NOT what I was asking, he didn't know this because he would not let me finish. I felt myself getting madder and madder as I listened to him answer something, in an annoyed manner, that I hadn't even asked. Finally, I cut him off and and made it very clear what I was asking.
I also told him I didn't want to go too big and look fake I wanted it to be a natural look. He replied that none of them look natural they all look fake. The tone in which he said it was my final straw. I was done. I don't care how cheap he was or how many breast augmentations he does each year he would Not be my doctor.
He let me know how many surgery he does each year, as if that makes him more qualified. I can not help but think in his desire to be a leader in the amount of breast augmentations performed, his bedside manners and care of each patient is sacrificed.
If you just want a bigger chest, no questions, he may be fine for you. But if you are wanting to make a well informed decision with a doctor that takes time with you, you do not want to go to him. I left feeling very discouraged.

Deploy package server via ASDK or command line?
I'm looking for a way to install a package server via something like the ASDK or command line. Essentially, I'd like to script the install for any device in my environment that meets a condition (in this particular case, a few specific chars in the hostname). I have a vague impression of seeing a presentation at Vision 2013 where someone was doing something like this.
Anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
Comments 2 Comments • Jump to latest comment
I too would like to be able to do this but hadn't had much luck. I'd started working with it from the Workflow perspective but there was a bug in one of the SMP components. Essentially you will be creatingn a resource association between the computer and the package server service.
I went so far as to manually install the package server executable on the computer which picks up the package server tab in the Agent. However it won't start downloading any packages until the computer has been associated via the site server settings.

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By James Swift, campaignlive.co.uk, Friday, 27 June 2014 08:52AM
The independent agency beat one other shop – the incumbent, whom Get Living London declined to name – to win the pitch.
Get Living London has tasked Quiet Storm with launching a press, outdoor and digital campaign later in the summer to attract more residents to the development.
Lynda Catt, the marketing director at Get Living London, said: "We were very impressed by Quiet Storm's approach, they challenged our thinking and presented ideas which would represent a significant step change for our brand."
Adgenda Media is the media agency for Get Living London.
Earlier this month, Quiet Storm won business from Metcalfe's Food Company, and will create a TV campaign for its Skinny Topcorn range.

A rare series of lovely and fascinating images of American Indians from a French history of the world by Jules Dufay. This plate came from the American volume of Dufay's Historie des Voyages, which was an account of the 'wars, social mores, products and history of different parts of the world. Each image is based to some extent on reality, but with some interesting aspects clearly not accurate. These are an early European attempt to better understand Native Americans.
A series depicting events in America, mostly within the United States in the early years. $350 each
George Catlin. "Buffalo Hunt, Chase." Plate 7. From Catlin's North American Indian Portfolio. London: G. Catlin, 1844. Folio; 12 1/4 x 18 1/2. Lithograph drawn by McGahey and printed by Day & Hague. Full original hand color. Very good condition.
The prints of George Catlin mark a poignant and heroic moment in the history of American art and culture. Setting out to chronicle and immortalize Indian culture, Catlin's career was one of mid-19th century pioneer adventure and spirit colored by the ideal of the 'noble savage' in his pristine environment. In 1830 he went out to St. Louis and from there traveled extensively for several years to Indian villages along the Platte and Missouri rivers and then later to tribes throughout the mid and far west. The result was some 500 paintings and one of the most significant chronicles of Indian life and culture ever produced. The prints Catlin later published from his paintings, with their fascinating and important subjects, as well as their rich color, detail and artistic worth, are a noble legacy from Catlin's memorable career. During his sojourn in the west, Catlin spent much time recording the customs of the Native Americans, including their hunting techniques. This image shows the action of a buffalo hunt in graphic detail. One Indian, whose horse seems to have been knocked over by a dying buffalo, stands and shoots his arrow at another beast, while nearby a mounted hunter sends an arrow true into the side of a massive bull. A third figure in the foreground shows a brave stepping from his galloping mount, about to be gored by a buffalo, onto the back of another thundering beast. The action, detail of costume and weapons, makes this print a terrific combination of ethnological artifact and aesthetic masterpiece. $5,750

One day, when I was in seventh or eighth grade or thereabouts, I stayed home because of illness. (I can't remember now whether I was really — really — sick, or whether I was just slightly under the weather but not in the mood to go to class.)
After a few hours, lazing around home became pretty boring. So, on a whim, I picked up a novel that we had inherited from my maternal grandmother after her death in 1958.
Entitled Added Upon and written by a Norwegian-American Latter-day Saint named Nephi Anderson (d. 1923), it was, as I now know, a product of the "Home Literature" era of Mormon fiction.
To my enormous surprise, I was captivated almost immediately.
The narrative of Added Upon concerns several spirits who, interacting with each other in every phase, move from the pre-earthly existence to mortal life, from mortality into the spirit world, and on to the resurrection and the Celestial Kingdom.
(Some will immediately think of Saturday's Warrior — which I, perhaps alone in the entire Church, have never seen. It's entirely possible that Added Upon influenced that much later Mormon musical; I can't really say, one way or the other.)
I had, somehow — partially, no doubt, because I'd grown up semi-active in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, son of a non-Mormon father and a somewhat marginally committed mother, but probably also because I just hadn't been paying attention — never before really glimpsed the grandeur of what Mormons typically call "the plan of salvation." Church, to me, had simply been a round of dull and seemingly interminable meetings.
As I devoured Added Upon, though, the power and majesty of the Mormon account of the purpose of human life and the cosmic plan designed to realize it sank deep into my mind and heart. It struck me as the most glorious and grand story I had ever heard, and the most wonderfully noble conception of humanity that I had ever encountered. To be perfectly trite, it resonated with me. And I have never, in all the years that have passed, lost that sense of awe, grandeur, and profound purpose.
It was a pivotal moment for me. I'm grateful beyond words for having skipped school that day.
I've tried to re-read Added Upon a few times since then, but have never really been able to "get into it." Perhaps I should try again. But I have no desire to argue that it's great literature — it's frightfully didactic, for one thing — and maybe, in my case at least, it's accomplished its task and I should let the past remain in the past. In and of itself, it wasn't particularly important. It served as a window for me into something far more fundamental.
I wish, though, that there were, in a sense, more such books. And more works of musical and visual art broadly in its spirit. Better, yes, but still conveying something of the enormous power of the Gospel vision.
I came to Brigham Young University partly under the influence of Added Upon. And when I came, eons ago now — I never imagined that I would ever be so old — a strong sense of possibility pervaded the campus. Mormon arts and Mormon artists were breaking through and out everywhere, we thought, and there were very great things on the horizon.
Alas, they never fully arrived. Though the Mormon artistic and cultural situation isn't nearly as bad as some critics claim, it's also not nearly as good as we could wish.
Many factors played a role, I'm sure, in the failure of this anticipated new day to dawn: Patrons were few, and the audience was small. Sin and human defect and loss of faith cost us some of our best. (This was, and still is, painful to contemplate.) Bureaucratic/cultural inertia blunted and delayed many of those early hopes. In any case — perhaps I'm merely jaded, simply old and tired; perhaps, compartmentalized, I simply don't move in the right circles — I no longer sense that feeling of boundless but imminent possibility that seemed almost tangible among many people I knew at BYU in the 1970s.
But I still hope. I certainly still have faith. There are some very promising signs, and there have been some worthy achievements. And there will, I believe, someday be an art fully worthy of the Gospel. Not a preachy, overtly moralizing, or merely illustrative "art," but also not an alienated, cynical, skeptical art, "aping the Gentles." Visual, literary, and musical art created by genuinely thoughtful, deeply faithful, fully communicant Latter-day Saints. Powerful, and conveying Power.

Looking for more space? Try home remodeling
So, you want a new house but dread the mere thought of "the move"? Dont fret. In this dilemma, you really can have it both ways just remodel!
Too much work, you say? Nonsense. The "do-it-yourself" segment has lost a share of the market. Most people who decide to remodel their homes hire contractors.
Remodeling Trends
Some homeowners are building whole rooms onto their houses. One popular addition is the master bedroom suite. Homeowners can easily convert their old bedroom into an office, media room or spare bedroom whatever fits their lifestyle. In many cases, remodelors are adding these rooms on the upper levels of the homes. This technique helps conserve land and space.
Many remodeling contractors are working on kitchens and bathrooms. In their kitchens, homeowners want more counter space, natural wood cabinetry and Corian countertops. The stainless steel, industrial look also is popular in todays remodeled kitchens. In addition, many homeowners want bigger bathrooms with whirlpool tubs and spacious showers.
Wide open spaces
Most homeowners who choose to remodel want to create the illusion of space, so they request light paint colors such as white, bone and almond. They also want additional large windows.
A sizeable number of homeowners are ripping up their wall-to-wall carpet and replacing it with hardwood floors. If they cant have wooden floors, they choose floors with laminated surfaces.
Many remodeling contractors add features to homes that make them more energy efficient and environmentally conscious. For instance, they can install energy-saving glass windows and skylights. Some are even adding solar panels on rooftops. A good remodel job can help homeowners preserve their environment.
If youre considering a change but want to stay put, try remodeling. Believe it: contractors can perform miracles. You will feel like you have a brand-new house, but you wont have to leave your friends all the conveniences of your old neighborhood.

1 of 5 figures that will combine together to form the mightiest prehistoric dino combiner to date!
Item comes MIB (Mint In Box), as it does not come sealed from the manufacturer.
"ToyWorld Roar - impressive"
I wasn't quite sure what to expect here. I do own other ToyWorld action from Hardbone to Orion / Hegemon.....I would say this is by far their best offering and that I do like this dinobot rendition over Fansproject rendition. For one G1 aesthetically accurate could use some reprolabel love ;) super solid....only complaint is I wish there was more of a soft ratchet system in the legs / hips these are basically step ratchets which can dictate pose stature. Weapons OK but the integrity of both Bot and Alt is awesome and there is no mistaking this is SLAG......great on its own but we all know what we want here a DINO Combiner and this being their first offering of this bunch...ummm yeah picking up the rest no doubt. 8 out of 10
"First Impressions"
Dinos rule in all shapes and sizes. ToyWorld's version comes close but I feel it could have been just a tad bit better.
Most 3rd party figures I have received are 'peg' happy. Which I love. Nothing like a solid figure with pose-a-bility, firm joints, and 'pegs'. However this figure is just missing some of those need 'pegs' and lock-ons.
Feral Rex - Awesome! Ares - Awesome! Even Warlord, as G1 as it is, is great. Firm figures with firm combination modes.
Almost the same transformation as the G1 just enhanced but I fee it will also have it's issues with it parts being loose as time wears on. The shoulders on this figure rotate to a certain point but do not lock which hinders the posing of the arms. The spine fins are all jointed where some of them really didn't need to be and shouldn't have been. Who needs an articulate spine fin? Even Godzilla toys don't go that far, why would it need too?
The Dino mode looks rigid, like a cookie cutter feel and look, where as the G1 was smooth seamed and rounded in the necessary areas. I get the box look but for this to be overly boxy is saying something.
My favorite of the Dinos but I hope future designs are more refined and articulate.... yea the hip joints limit the posing; definitely missing some articulation there.
All in all a good figure, just hope the rest of the line improves.
A mint box generally has no noticeable flaws. This doesn't mean it is a C10 box, but that it doesn't have any significant damage to the box. It still may have wear to the window, and a small amount of wear to the box that is noticeable upon close inspection.
A C9 box is still considered very displayable and may have a kink, ding, minor fray to an edge, etc. The box is still case fresh and unopened with factory sealed tape on both sides.
By selecting this option, ToySource allows you to continue to add either instock or preorder items to your stack, as well as change how your orders ship out, which can save you on shipping!

Voluntary funds vital for DPA's activities in 2012, annual report underlines
20 June 2013 – In another year marked by political turbulence, the Department of Political Affairs (DPA) has made effective contributions to international peace and stability, supported by encouraging levels of voluntary funding, the Department's annual report to donors underlines.
Besides applying a wide range of tools including preventive diplomacy and mediation in responding to political tensions from Mali to the Maldives, DPA has identified warning signs and supported countries in transition.
Increased extrabudgetary funding received from Member States has been vital for these efforts, the report emphasizes. In 2012, DPA received $17.8 million in voluntary funding, or 93 per cent of the amount it requested – an encouraging 44 per cent increase compared to the $9.1 million received in 2011.
The donor base has also diversified last year, with more Member States making voluntary contributions, and an additional multi-year agreement being signed. Together, these developments illustrate the growing trust of an increasing number of Members States in DPA's work.
The annual report illustrates how extrabudgetary funding helps DPA deliver on its mandate of preventing, managing and resolving armed conflict. In an overwhelming majority of reviewed cases DPA's involvement, based on voluntary funding, has positively impacted conflict situations.
In Somalia, for instance, extrabudgetary funding has proven crucial for supporting the longstanding efforts led by the UN in the country. Expertise from the Mediation Standby Team and the Electoral Assistance Division, mobilized through voluntary funding, helped Somali authorities finalize the provisional constitution and facilitate the formation of a more inclusive Parliament, thus ending the country's eight-year political transition.
In Libya, voluntary funding enabled DPA to support the United Nations Support Mission there and provide technical assistance and coordinated international electoral efforts. These efforts contributed to the holding of the first democratic elections after four decades of dictatorship.
Extrabudgetary funding was also used to respond to tensions elsewhere, from Syria to the Central African Republic, from Algeria to the Maldives, and from Mali to Yemen.
To carry out its mandate effectively, DPA needs sustained political and financial support from Member States. Voluntary funds, which complement the resources provided through the regular UN budget, are essential as they provide greater flexibility and rapid response capacity.
