The end of film for TV production?
Film out?
With your current experience in mind, do you think we are at a watershed moment, heralding the possible end of film for episodic TV? If so, what will that mean for the larger industry?
Tilson: Honestly, I think we're almost there. We're already seeing places we work with, post houses, consider going out of business because so much of their business is film transfer, and major studios are already saying no more film for television, period. And even if some shows stay on film, they will be the exception, and as those shows finish their runs, I expect we'll be all-digital after that.
Devlin: I don't think we'll be using film very long. And that will change the world of post production. Some will go out of business, but hopefully, the smarter ones will adaptmany already are. This does not have to be a death knell, but they better adapt quickly. One big problem post houses have, especially, the smaller ones, is that they spend enormous amounts of money to get equipment, and before they can amortize it, it is obsolete, so they never profit from their equipment. The new digital workflows are vastly cheaper to acquire, upgrade, and maintain equipment. This can allow a post house to be more nimble and reduce costs dramatically.
Lonsdale: Distributors of TV shows were always very interested in two things: foreign sales and media storage. They always felt that film was the best storage media, and foreign distribution, for years, required a film finish because of different broadcast standards. Then, slowly, they stopped requiring that film finish, and with the 1080i HD format, you can now more easily take a master and downconvert or crossconvert it to another format with little or no quality loss. So now, they are considering digital more reliable. That also opened the door for making them more comfortable about saving money shooting digital. And every year, the technology is just getting betterthe F35, for instance, is just about at the pinnacle for this kind of work.
In addition, audiences are more receptive to seeing images from the digital world even if they look somewhat different. So yes, we are seeing a definite shift. I would hope film would stay around a long time. But these factors would seem to indicate we are moving away from film. If the shows are good, the audiences will be more interested in the drama or comedy they are covering than the medium it was recorded on.
Underschultz: Personally, I do believe this is the case. You only need to see the history of electronic gathering over the past five years and compare where it was then to where it is now. Five years ago, there were almost no [hour-long episodic] shows shooting HD. Now, probably close to 70 percent of all programming on TV is acquired electronically. This is a reality. There are lots of reasons for it, but one of the big ones is the quality of the electronic cameras out there now. I'm now shooting with a camera every bit as workable as the ones I used shooting 35mm film, with great latitude, and now, the same lenses. For all intents and purposes, I think we can make it look exactly the same, if we want to. Logically, this will progress forward.
Reibman: As an artist, you hope they would let you shoot whatever [medium] you thought best, but the truth is, economics are involved, and all shows, no matter if you shoot them on film or HD, are getting finished the same way and are being broadcast out in high definition. So generally, they will look as good as the [viewer's monitor] will let them. As a cinematographer, if I'm doing my job right, no one watching should be thinking much about the photography. From a cameraman's point of view, let's say I'm very encouraged, and moving quickly from encouraged to optimistic.

Pressure rises for Libyan intervention -- Schumer to call for budget debate 'reset,' with deal to include tax reform – First '12 announcements likely next month -- Joe Manchin goes rogue
TOP STORY: "Obama's doctrine on military intervention tested," by AP's Bradley Klapper and Matthew Lee: "A month shy of his election in 2008, presidential candidate Barack Obama outlined a doctrine for American military force that included crises in which the United States has a 'moral obligation' to intervene. … Obama is facing the sternest test yet of his philosophy of humanitarian intervention … [T]he president's most senior advisers are to meet Wednesday to outline what steps are realistic and possible to pressure Gadhafi … The discussion at the White House was to examine the ramifications of a no-fly zone over Libya and other potential military options."

SCHUMER TO CALL FOR "RESET" of BUDGET DEBATE – wants to include tax reform in budget deal -- Speech at 9:15 a.m., Center for American Progress – From release: Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), the #3 Senate Dem., "will point to the lessons of the 1990s when President Clinton balanced the budget with a plan that didn't just cut domestic discretionary spending, but also tackled mandatory spending and reformed the tax code. The senator will say that a similar 'all of the above' strategy is needed in any deal struck on a continuing resolution for the rest of this fiscal year. Schumer will criticize House Republicans' current approach for focusing narrowly on domestic discretionary spending. He will say that approach not only is harmful to economic growth, but also does not meaningfully reduce the deficit. Instead, Schumer will call for the ongoing negotiations led by the White House to 'broaden the playing field' when it comes to deficit reduction and include mandatory spending cuts and tax code reforms as part of any final compromise."

SNEAK PEEK – DEEP-POCKETKED AMERICAN CROSSROADS BROADENS ITS FOOTPRINT, moving beyond statewide races and taking on national issues as a prelude to a 2012 presidential strategy, including microtargeting – Jonathan Martin: "An arm of American Crossroads, the well-financed Republican super PAC, is going up today with an ad taking aim at public employee unions … The 60-second spot captures a fired-up Obama at an SEIU event thanking members … for their help in getting him elected. … Crossroads GPS is airing the ad on national cable. The buy is $750,000 over one week, with spots running on CNN, CNBC and Fox News. … That such a high-profile group as Crossroads is entering the fray on the public employee fight illustrates both how important conservatives see the debate and, as Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker's numbers fall, the degree to which they want to re-focus it on public labor's political contributions and union stereotypes - and away from whether workers should have the right to organize."

The project will begin this year and build substantially next year. … You can't outspend the unions – but you can outcompete them with a faster and leaner organization that offers more bang for the buck."

DRIVING THE HILL'S DAY --"Twin [Senate] votes [today] will open real negotiations," by David Rogers: "To date, Obama has taken a surprising 'father knows best' approach to the childish congressional food fight, but in truth, the outcome will have real consequences for his presidency. … More personal involvement will be needed by the president himself, but both the Senate and the House are also paying a price for the frayed relations in their once-proud Appropriations committees. In times past, these panels could be relied upon to step forward and negotiate the details of spending legislation, but respected veterans like Sen. Thad Cochran (R-Miss.), a former chairman, have largely surrendered their institutional role as partners with Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii). As a son of teachers — his mother taught math, his father was the principal — Cochran has long supported education funding now threatened by the cuts. But he refused to be drawn into a detailed conversation on the consequences of the cuts in the immense House bill." http://bit.ly/gc3BXS
--Rebuke from a freshman Dem -- "Manchin: Obama has 'failed to lead,'" by Jennifer Epstein and Scott Wong: "West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin ripped President Barack Obama on his budget proposals in a Senate floor speech Tuesday… 'Why are we doing all this when the most powerful person in these negotiations — our president — has failed to lead this debate or offer a serious proposal for spending and cuts that he would be willing to fight for?' The full-throated rejection of the president's spending proposals by a politically vulnerable Democrat is just the latest worrisome sign for Obama and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), who have yet to rally their party around a unified spending plan. … 'Respectfully,' Manchin said, 'I am asking President Obama to take this challenge head on and propose a compromise plan for dealing with the our nation's fiscal challenges.'" http://bit.ly/eCeXiz
--Jay Carney, gaggling on Air Force One: "His leadership and seriousness about the need to live within our means, cut spending … where we can … is quite clear. ...

--Manchin and other freshmen try to break tradition of partisan lunches -- Manu Raju: "Manchin is on a charm offensive in which he's taking his penchant for retail politicking to virtually every Senate office, including the entire GOP leadership. … In an interview with POLITICO, Manchin declined to say whether he would vote for the president in 2012, though he has repeatedly dismissed suggestions that he might switch parties. … The 63-year-old Manchin says he is out to change the culture of a Senate body whose partisan lines are hardening … It's quite a goal for a rookie senator, but he has already met with 20 Republicans and 25 Democrats — and last week, he and freshman Sen. Mark Kirk (R-Ill.) co-hosted their first in a series of weekly lunches with senators from both parties in an attempt to break the Senate's long-standing tradition of partisan-only lunch gatherings. … Asked again if he would vote for Obama, Manchin said: 'I support this country, whoever the president is, that's who I support.'" http://bit.ly/huM0ti

SPORTS BLINK – N.Y. Daily News wood, "TIKI: I'M BACK! Giants say: We don't want ya!": "Tiki Barber, the fleet-footed but fumble-prone former Giants star, dropped another bomb Tuesday by announcing he was making a comeback - at the ripe old age of 35. Barber, who infuriated fans by publicly trashing his team and befouled his family-man image by dumping his pregnant wife, … filed papers with the NFL to come out of retirement, his agent, Mark Lepselter, wrote on Twitter. The Giants quickly - and politely - told Tiki to take a hike. 'We wish Tiki nothing but the best,' the team said in a statement. 'When we are able to make the transaction, we will release him from our reserve/retired list.' Barber retired in 2006 with two years remaining on the four-year, $23 million contract he signed before the 2005 season. It's unclear what other team Barber might play for because all NFL rosters are effectively frozen until a new collective bargaining agreement is signed."
--Madder than ever: "The NCAA announced last April that it would add three teams to the field this season, the first expansion since the tournament went from 64 teams to 65 in 2001. The 68-team model was chosen over 96 teams, a plan that received support from many coaches and administrators."
--Charles Barkley as NCAA analyst – AP: "Barkley's analysis after a first-round blowout in the NCAA tournament: 'Duke graduates their players, but that team they did has not graduated a player in like seven years.' Never one for understatement, Barkley was in fact exaggerating Tuesday when he imagined that scene. But not by much. The brash Hall of Famer plans to lobby for better graduation rates in his new job as a college basketball commentator. CBS and Turner Sports' new 14-year, $10.8 billion deal to televise the NCAA tournament adds announcers from the NBA broadcasts on TNT to March Madness. And Barkley is mad about how few Division I players, especially African-American men, earn degrees."

Walker and the state officials are doing what they promised: fixing Wisconsin's fiscal disaster
It's hardly a disaster and they're hardly fixing it. It is widely known that a corporate tax break offset the concessions the teachers unions have already made.TeamPOLITICO: Mar. 9, 2011 - 4:45 AM EST
Fairness and Reason: Study after study shows that both basic compensation and benefits for public employee union members exceed salary and benefits in the private sector.
This is a ridiculous assertion, unless you compare the few with the many, and even then; since when is it wrong or unfair for a college educated professional at the top of their field, after years of service, to earn a hundred thousand a year in total compensation? I remember just a few years ago when "Joe Six-Pack" ( a guy who barely graduated from high school ) was barely makin' it at 250K a year! That wasn't rich, that wasn't even well off! So his salary wasn't to be touched because he wasn't making enough to pay another 3% in taxes, and the republicans fought tooth and nail and made President Obama go back on his campaign promise. So there is no fairness and no reason there.TeamPOLITICO: Mar. 9, 2011 - 4:45 AM EST
That is unfair. It also is unsustainable if we want our municipalities, states and federal governments to survive.
Wrong again; what's unfair is expecting that if we keep giving more money to the greedy they will become less greedy, people and corporations and s-corporations need to pay taxes based their ability to pay, no more loop holes and off-shore tax havens, this is still the wealthiest nation on earth and if you want access to it you have to pay for it. That is fair, then the people also need to be paid a living wage, not the lowered, watered down, immigrant driven system the corporations want to keep in place, why else would the Koch bro.s be interested in teachers wages? If a college educated professional can't earn 100K in total compensation in this country then there is something seriously wrong, and we need more collective bargaining rights not less!
W...it's nice to be missed. (...especially when being shot at!) Haha. Anyhow, nobody (I include myself as a nobody) argues that professors at the top of their field should get comped fairly. I think the issue is more along the lines that union members...good and bad...get comped the same way. I think the other issue is that when you have a liberal legislature and leadership that is elected in large part using Union money also deciding on collective bargaining issues, there may possibly maybe be a bit of a conflict (I'll say it for us both..."DUH!"). My usual cynical self believes that the resolution of that conflict tends to screw the tax payer. Of course...those are my 'I thinks'. Here's what I know. Having worked with Ford and GM for years, I recognize that the Union with rules, job classifications, grievance processes, etc, etc, actually steals the dignity of hard work from the worker. Workers are castigated by their own when they exceed productivity targets. Workers are protected when they fail to make even the minimum productivity quota. They can't get fired. It hardly matters if they get written up. The Union demands 'more' when things go merely 'OK', and takes zero responsibility when things go awry. In fact, most times things go awry 'because' of the Union. G'head, ask me...I can give half a hundred examples just off the top of my head. OK, OK..I'm on a roll.....somebody stop me!!! How about management? Maybe they suck, and maybe they don't. What I have seen though, is that good men and women in managerial roles get steam rolled by a monolithic Union that really answers to nobody. What's most difficult to stomach is watching managers force to say 'Thank You' for the at best marginal work that Unions produce. I'd never make it there actually (At Ford/GM I mean.). Instead of saying "Thanks Guys"....I'd probably say..... "You suck. You're fired!....Oh..and in case I forget...You Suck!" Yeah..I know....that's mean. So sue me.
Hey...how about another one. Call this one a freebie. California...land of fruits and nuts. High speed train from LA to SFO. Obama's "Cutting Edge Tech". Didn't the French build one of those in '81? Wasn't '81 the last time 'we' built a nuke? Anyhow, I digress. There's $60B slotted for this behemoth....and it probably won't get built. Why not? The EPA, my friend. They strike again. .......and again. There's also the various permits, site surveys, regulations, prohibitions, etc, etc that surely would take that $60B and turn it into $100B or more. Bet me?
Hey...did ya hear that schools are failing? I know...what a shock. Good thing we have the Teacher's Union out there taking charge. Good also that we have Arne Duncan saying we should focus less on defining failure and more on teaching students. 'He' sure deserves 6 figures that that little slice of brilliance. Hey....do I blame teachers alone? Nope. I blame lazy parents too. Probably lazy Union workin' parents (OK...that wasn't fair.....but I was on a roll!). I mean...c'mon...if they're slackers when they're on the clock making $80 to $100K, I'm sure they don't kick it into gear when they're working for free. In my neighborhood, the union guys have boats, RVs, quad runners and spend all their time playing with and polishing them. They work harder on their hobbies than on their jobs. Cynical? Nope. Just a fact.
WOW.....I mixed it up there a bit. Where was I? OH yeah....getting more coffee. Hasta La Vista, Baby

Juan Dixon 'excited' after first game as Maryland assistant
Midnight Madness returns to Cole Field House
COLLEGE PARK--About 45 minutes before game time on Friday night, new Maryland special assistant Juan Dixon was mingling with players on the court during shootaround wearing red shorts, a black and red warmup, and yellow and black Under Armour basketball shoes.
With about half an hour until tip-off, Dixon grabbed one more basketball that was bouncing toward him, launched a three-pointer from the near corner, nailed it, and then walked back into the locker room.
He emerged with the coaching staff before team introductions in completely new attire, like Superman coming out of a phone booth, wearing a dapper light gray suit with a white shirt and deep blue tie.
It might have seemed like a seamless transition from cool to professional for the new assistant before his first college game on the bench, an 89-62 victory over Morgan State at Comcast Center, but head coach Mark Turgeon revealed postgame that exactly how the proverbial sausage was made wasn't quite as pretty.
[RELATED: Analysis of Maryland's 89-62 win over Morgan State]
"I found out he's not very good at tying a tie before the game so if you want to rip him a little bit, you can," Turgeon said with a laugh. "They were trying to get that fixed up right before the game."
Tie tying ability aside, Dixon took his seat behind Maryland's bench on Friday night and so began the next chapter of his already long history with the program, the chapter that he hopes will pave the way for a career in coaching at the college level.
As a special assistant, Dixon is barred from formally coaching during the game, so he sat pensively for much of the contest, observing and conversing with staff members around him and rising to join the huddle during timeouts before returning to his seat.
"Juan is an important person here. It's just good to have him around," Turgeon said. "I think he was excited and really enjoyed it. I'm not worried about Juan."
Dixon was formally introduced as the team's special assistant on Wednesday, but has been around the program for much of the preseason and regular season. He played in the program's alumni game during Maryland Madness last month.
"I love talking to Juan, picking his brain," forward Evan Smotrycz said after scoring 19 points in the win. "He always has some insightful things to say so I think the more he's around the better."
[RELATED: What will Dixon's role be as a special assistant?]
Dixon's job as a special assistant will mostly see him planning practices and helping with the team's film study, as well as mentoring players who come into the program.
"I'm trying to just soak up whatever he says," Smotrycz said.
After the game, once spectators had cleared out of Comcast Center and the lights had been dimmed, Dixon, assistant coach Bino Ranson and sophomore forward Jake Layman stood talking on the sidelines.
Layman had just dropped a career-high 27 points in the win and Dixon had relaxed from the formalness of the in-game spotlight.
Dixon wore a blue winter hat and had taken off that pesky tie. The top button of his shirt was undone. He shook Layman's hand and congratulated him before Layman exited through the tunnel.
Dixon picked up a black Maryland backpack and pulled his hat on more snuggly before he said goodbye to the media still working near the court, then he too exited through the tunnel.
And so ended Dixon's first day on the other side.

2014 Collectors Club Exclusives...Details Announced
Showcasing History...And The Future
Tuesday, July 08, 2014
Only a few months to go until the football season is upon us, and it seems like a perfect time to announce more details about the 2014 Collectors Club exclusives.
Without further ado:
Offered alongside NFL series 34 is an Aaron Rodgers Super Bowl figure. A low run production, this figure captures Aaron Rodgers from his spectacular (and MVP winning) performance in Super Bowl XLV. Rodgers was the star of the night, carving up the Pittsburgh Steeler's defense, completing 24 of 39 passes, for 304 yards and three touchdowns. This specific figure comes adorned with the Super Bowl patch and jersey combination that Rodgers wore on that special Sunday night in 2011.
The McFarlane Collector Club exclusive for NFL series 35 is a player who has yet to play a game in the NFL, but was one of the most intriguing draft prospects to come out in years. Sammy Watkins, the exceptional Wide Receiver out of Clemson, was taken 4th overall by the Buffalo Bills in the 2014 NFL Draft and is expected to step right into the Bills starting lineup and contribute right away. The Watkins figure can be seen wearing his home uniform, and this also marks the first time a player representing the Buffalo Bills is back in the McFarlane lineup in almost 10 years!!!
These figures will be available exclusively on the McFarlane Toys online store!
Stay tuned to www.mcfarlane.com for the latest news and info on all the upcoming products from McFarlane Toys.

Walz Caps is proudly listed on CNN. "Made in America: The short list". Excerpt:
The slow death of American manufacturing and the trend toward outsourcing overseas has made it hard to find American-made goods, but not impossible. A host of small businesses are still dedicated to manufacturing goods in America, and, thanks to a few diligent bloggers, they're easier than ever to find.
"Buying Made in USA is not just a passing trend. It truly is something we as consumers, business owners and even government can do to support small to mid-size businesses," said Julie Reiser, president and co-founder of Made in USA Certified, which audits supply chains for businesses that want their products to bear their seal.
"Small businesses are responsible for two out of every three new jobs created in the U.S. We need these small to mid-size businesses to flourish and grow as they are our innovators, our makers and job creators. Making it in America, supporting U.S. manufacturing and buying American is one thing we can all do today to help keep the American dream alive and well."
Here's a short list of websites and Facebook groups dedicated to helping consumers find products made in the United States, along with a few brands known to manufacture most or a substantial portion of their goods stateside. Read the list and help us grow it by adding your suggestions in the comments.

Ok I seen this before at the asian owned 99 cent & + stores that I enjoy finding goodies at for great prices. Tho I was never tempted to try this mascara since I'm picky when it comes to mascara. I've been seeing a lot of reviews on these cheap Apple mascara's. Just check YouTube! So I finally gave them a try. I got the avocado one and mamey. They each cost $1 something so why not! They have fruity smell and have fruit oils in the ingredients. The only bad part is they do have propylPARABEN :( I find that the avocado one goes on more smoothly then the mamey but they both have the same results which are good! To remove use oil before face soap. I will just use them on top of my too faced better than sex mascara really Makes my eyelashes stand out! Plus I want to have a barrier since it has a paraben. Without a barrier I felt my eye lashes were getting aggravated. The packaging isn't that great they don't come sealed and when you pull out the brush it splatters a little bit on your hand.

I been using this since 2007 and I discovered it in Mexico and so happy found it online on eBay or amazon . I use the green apple black mascara daily and at night use castor oil with cotton ball to make them thicker and long , my lashes are healthy and been told if I had fake lashes but I don't . I used maybelline in past and wasn't happy so, I am faithful to this mascara I have little watery eyes after 2 mins but it goes away . use one layer and they curl and look pretty . I haven't had issues with creased black under circles. I re order every 3-4 months online and tried the almond mascara but like this one best . I have long straight lashes but this makes them curl and naturally pretty .

My go-to mascara for years! I have tried numerous name brand mascaras and nothing compares to this one. I've used the red, brown and green Apple mascara and they're all fantastic! I curl my eyelashes with a spoon and this mascara keeps them lifted and curly, as opposed to name brand mascaras that only clump and make my lashes completely lose their curl. Extremely affordable, long-lasting & waterproof!

This product worked so great! I love that its incredibly inexpensive. You can build up the mascara. The only thing I dislike about Apple by Apple _ super lash is that its incredibly difficult to get off. Even worse then my waterproof mascara. I guess this can be a good thing, but I dont like it very much. I do not think I would purchase this product again because of that reason.

I picked this up for $1 at my local Hispanic market after being turned on to Mexican mascara formulations by a client. I think it's a pretty great mascara - not prefect but pretty great, expecially for the price! The enormous brush is a pain, as it flips mascara out that then goes everywhere when you pull it out of the vial. It also tends to get mascara smudges on my lids while I am applying it. So I now wipe the brush down extremely well before I apply, and use another wand to separate the lashes. You can get a very beautiful, subtle result that way. You can also build up quite some impressive volume if that is what you are after.
It stays on very well without flaking. However, if you don't take it off before you go to bed it WILL smudge halfway down your cheek. And it's really hard to remove! I'm going to dig up a makeup remover and see if that helps.
I also bought this in brown, but was very disappointed. I was think it would be the usual brown/black color, but it was bright sienna! Looks very weird on me, but might work for someone who wanted to really play up green eyes without looking like they had mascara on? I have naturally dark lashes, so it just lightened them up. Not what I was looking for.

I was in the market for a new mascara as all of the ones I had at home were making my lashes heavy and would not hold a curl at all. I didn't want to go back to my old standby (CG Lashblast volume) so I went out on a limb and ordered some Apple mascara from a wholesale site. I had to order a dozen of them, but they came out to be only $1.10 each!!!! I'm not sure if I have a different formula, as I have the one in the all black packaging and the tube only says "Super Lash" on it.
I was shocked to see the big huge brush pop out of the tube and wondered how in the world it would work on my lashes. I assumed a smudgy mess was about to ensue upon first application, but I was pleasantly surprised otherwise.
A background about my lashes - I have long lashes that normally hold a curl well. I do have to curl with my Japonesque power curler and I always, always, always apply a base coat of CG Lashblast Length as a primer of sorts.
The first time I applied this mascara I was blown away. It was everything I was looking for in a mascara - dark, dry formula, coated every lash without any clumps, lengthened and volumized all in a couple coats.
I'm happy to say my lashes stayed curled all day and I had ZERO smudges or flakes. I've worn this mascara everyday for a couple weeks now and I can honestly say I don't ever see myself straying from this.

I will never buy another mascara again! I am so pleased with this mascara that I bought 10 tubes of it. It is the only mascara I have used that holds a curl. I have long but straight eyelashes. Finding a mascara that I will stick with is hard for me. I wish I had known about this mascara 15 years ago when I started wearing makeup. It bests my previous go to Lash Stiletto by Maybelline (waterproof). In fact since I started wearing this mascara my eyelashes are in better shape. I highly recommend this great value!

I LOVE IT. <3 When you first open the bottle a BIG FAT BRUSH pops out! When you apply it on your lashes it give beautiful LENGTH & VOLUME.NO CLUMPING. it's so perfect. The only thing however, is that when you pop it out, some product gets on your hands, when you apply it some product gets on your eye lid, and my #1 problem is they feel water proof. All of them. :( It doesn't even say it on the bottle! Ugh, but other than those reasons, it works better than most mascarad I have EVER used.

Ok let's just be real this is a cheap mascara that I get for 99 cents at my local Latin store.....the packaging certainly isn't anything to rave about and has a very tacky look....also the mascaras are sold by themselves and unsealed so anyone can open them....also sometimes you'll get an older tube and it will be very dried up....the brush is really nothing special but not bad either.....
Lets move on to the positives....I've been using this mascara since junior high and I think it was one of if not the first I ever bought as a 13 year old with no money.....little did I know then that this would end up being one of the best mascaras I would ever use!!! Don't let the cheapness fool you! This is one of the only mascaras I have found that actually holds a curl!!!! Most of the time when I curl my lashes the mascara I apply after causes the curl to drop or droop....especially with heavy or really wet formulas....this is the only mascara I have found that can successfully hold a curl.....bottom line....
This mascara is better than Falsies....it lengthens, it separates, it doesn't clump or smear....nowadays I like to use the Super Lash as a primer to lengthen and separate my lashes and set my curl.....I then add a quick coat of L'Oreal Voluminous in Carbon Black for an extra pop of volume and the dark black color I love....for a dirt cheap mascara this stuff is the bomb dot com!!!! Apple has a lot of different types but my favorites are the Mamey, the Jojoba, and the Sabila (Aloe Vera).....I don't really care for the "Pink and Green" one.....I've tried A LOT of them but Apple Super Lash along with L'Oreal Voluminous are my two go to mascaras.....I couldn't do without them!!!!!

Regional carrier ExpressJet faced a challenging first quarter, with weather delays contributing to unexpected losses in the operation.
Severe weather events at ExpressJet and sister operator SkyWest Airlines resulted in about 1,900 cancellations of flights and 4,500 block hours during the quarter. This contributed to a pretax impact of about $4.5 million.
The effects were felt disproportionately by Atlanta-based ExpressJet, which operates many of its flights on the east coast.
"A lot of that winter activity was at locations where our ExpressJet operation is very heavily concentrated," says SkyWest Inc. president Bradford Rich on an 8 May earnings call.
Increased maintenance expenses at the ExpressJet segment also contributed to a disappointing quarter, some of which were tied to the weather events. Sister SkyWest Airlines, in comparison, delivered a strong quarter.
Rich declines to break out specific earnings for the ExpressJet operations until the carrier releases quarterly regulatory filings on 10 May. But he says that the impacts of maintenance and weather turned what it projected as a modest loss into a "fairly material loss" at the segment.
"It was just a pretty material impact in the quarter," he says.
Executives say that the carrier is still working on some fundamental issues that were inherited from the legacy ExpressJet carrier when SkyWest's subsidiary Atlantic Southeast Airlines purchased it in 2010. One issue is the ratio of spare aircraft that the carrier has in its fleet, which the carrier is working to optimise. This change could help improve operating performance, he says.
"Typically we like to have a ratio of 1:20 for spare aircraft," says SkyWest Inc. chief financial officer Mike Kraupp. "We have determined that how aircraft were allocated in our ExpressJet operation is challenging, i.e. not enough spare aircraft, and we believe that in having a spare ratio more in line with what I have outlined would improve reliability in that operation," he says.
Combined results for ExpressJet and SkyWest show operating income down in the first quarter to $15.6 million, compared to $20.5 million in the same three months of 2012. Maintenance expenses for both carriers were down to $167 million in the quarter from about $180 million in the first quarter of 2012.

Trey Songz Gets Dapper For Recording Academy Honors

His mentor and manager Kevin Liles was up front and center to present the award to Trey, and his good friend Ne-Yo sang a tribute to him for being an artist who encourages education and professional development for The Recording Academy New York Chapter.

Beyblade: Shogun Steel episode 4 - Defeat Pirate Orochi! (Part 2)
Zyro Kurogane and Eight Unabara ready their stances, for their first battle and at the sound of "3... 2... 1... Let It Rip!", they fiercely launch their Beyblades into all the force they can achieve, they have entered the Zero-G. Eight of course, is easy-going and laid-back, thinking Zyro will not cause much damage to Eight's own Beyblade, Pirate Orochi. Zyro still, with his Samurai Ifrit do all the best they can to attack Pirate Orochi with all he can do. This turns downhill however, as Eight commands Pirate Orochi to chase Samurai Ifrit in hot pursuit. Zyro doesn't seem startled at all and turns the table on it. Eight is still though, relaxed and reassured, as if nothing Zyro does can change Eight's attitude. Mal and Madoka along with many other Bladers are the spectators with Benkei appearing to see battle unfold. Mal explains to them of the Zero-G Stadium's swaying, how it's giving Eight's Orochi the advantage and proving biased against Zyro's Ifraid. Benkei still knows that there is hope, as Zyro did not go through all that training for nothing. Eight as calm as always, has Pirate Orochi skid through the Stadium, much like how Eight rides his skateboard. Zyro is very tempted by this and tries to find out, someway to stop it. Zyro is steady, knowing he has to do something quick or fail at nothing. He has Samurai Ifrit ram at Pirate Orochi, misses, and then starts to use the swaying of the Zero-G Stadium to switch advantages. Eventually, surprising the mass audience, everyone is shocked with how Samurai Ifrit's quick advantage has done something never-before-seen. The Zero-G Stadium is actually swaying around, being very chatoic in movement, and challenging the battle even more intensely. Mal analyzes this with her BeyComputer and sees that Samurai Ifrit has greatly shifted the whole battle. While Zyro knows it is time to finish it, and so he does. He commands Ifrit, in a burning blaze of fire, while engulfed by it, commands a Special move.

2014 Land Rover Range Rover Sport Goes on Major Diet, Now More Athletic
The 2014 Range Rover Sport's new aluminum structure is one reason this model is 800 pounds lighter than the previous model, despite a wheelbase stretch of 7 inches and a body longer by 2.1 inches. The new Range Rover Sport is also 5.9 inches shorter and rides as much as 2.1 inches lower to the ground, improving aerodynamics and, in conjunction with the weight reduction, fuel economy.
Four models are offered, starting at $63,495: SE, HSE, Supercharged, and Autobiography. All Range Rover Sports retain signature design cues from the previous-generation model, including a clamshell hood, floating roof effect, and side fender vents. For 2014, LED lighting is standard, and three contrast roof colors are available in addition to a choice between a panoramic fixed glass roof and a power panoramic glass sunroof. Multiple wheel designs are offered, ranging from 19 to 22 inches in diameter. An optional Dynamic Pack for the Supercharged and Autobiography versions adds red brake calipers, unique 21- or 22-inch wheels, body-color trim, gloss black exterior accents, and a 155-mph top speed.
Land Rover uses a variety of satin chrome, aluminum, wood, leather, and soft-touch materials for the 2014 Range Rover Sport's interior. The steering wheel is smaller in diameter and equipped with a thicker rim, the center console control panel is mounted higher and closer to the front-seat occupants, and the front seats have generous side bolsters. Land Rover has increased rear-seat leg room by an inch, improved rear-seat shoulder room, and offers an optional 5+2 seating arrangement with an occasional-use power-folding third-row seat. Land Rover claims the Range Rover Sport's cargo area is bigger, too.
Traditional gauges flanking a 5-inch display screen are standard. The more expensive models have a 12.3-inch high-resolution virtual gauge display. All Range Rover Sports are equipped with an 8-inch high-resolution infotainment touch screen, helping to reduce the SUV's dashboard control count by 50%. Bluetooth connectivity with audio streaming, Say What You See voice-recognition technology, and a USB port are standard equipment, along with dual-zone automatic climate control.
Three different Meridian audio systems are offered for the new 2014 Range Rover Sport, the top Signature Reference system equipped with 23 speakers and 1,700 watts of power. A power tailgate, passive entry with push-button starting, heated windshield, and a heated steering wheel are also offered for the new Range Rover Sport, and buyers can upgrade to a 4-zone automatic climate control system with climate-controlled 14-way power front seats and climate-controlled rear seats. A rear-seat entertainment system includes dual screens and White Fire wireless headsets, and the Range Rover Sport is available with a soft door close system, center console cooler, and power-deploying side steps.
The SE and HSE models are equipped with a new direct-injection, supercharged, 3.0-liter V-6 engine making 340 horsepower. An 8-speed automatic transmission drives all four wheels through a single-speed transfer case, and Land Rover claims this version of the new Range Rover Sport accelerates to 60 mph in 6.9 seconds. Automatic stop/start technology is standard, shutting the engine off when idling in traffic or at an intersection, and Land Rover estimates this engine will return 25 mpg in combined driving.
The Supercharged and Autobiography models continue to offer a supercharged, direct-injection 5.0-liter V-8, which generates 510 horsepower and accelerates the SUV to 60 mph in 5 seconds flat, according to Land Rover.
Full-time 4-wheel drive (4WD) is standard, the single-speed transfer case weighing 40 pounds less than the optional 2-speed transfer case with low range. The standard 4WD system provides a default torque split of 42:58 front-to-rear, but varies power distribution up to 62:78 front-to-rear depending on driving conditions.
The Range Rover Sport's optional 2-speed transfer case provides default power split of 50:50 but automatically varies delivery to 0:100 or 100:0 as conditions require. Land Rover says the driver can shift between high and low range at speeds up to 37 mph, and that this system supplies a 2.93:1 low-range gear ratio for crawling. A Dynamic Active Rear Locking Differential and Torque Vectoring by Braking technologies are included with the upgraded 4WD system.
The Range Rover Sport is equipped with standard hill-descent control, Gradient Release Control, and hill-start assist. A new Terrain Response 2 system analyzes driving conditions and automatically switches powertrain calibration between General, Grass/Gravel/Snow, Mud/Ruts, Sand, and Rock Crawl settings. The system can also recommend when it is appropriate to select low range or raise the suspension for extra clearance.
Regardless of drivetrain choice, the Range Rover Sport tows up to 7,716 pounds. An available Surround Camera with Tow Assist system makes it easier to connect a trailer, and trailer sway control is standard. Additional drivetrain details include a Transmission Idle Control system that reduces drive torque by 70% when the SUV is idling, optional paddle shifters for manual control of gear changes, and a smart regenerative charging system that reduces electrical system demands on the powertrain.
Land Rover says the redesigned 2014 Range Rover Sport provides improved on-road handling, ride comfort, and refinement compared to the previous-generation model. A new independent, double isolated aluminum suspension includes double wishbones in front and a multi-link setup in back. A new 4-corner air suspension provides variable ride height and gives the driver two fixed off-road height settings that raise the SUV by 1.4 inches or 2.6 inches. With this system, the Range Rover Sport's suspension supplies 7 inches of total ride height range. Key maximum measurements include:
- Front suspension travel = 10.2 inches
- Rear suspension travel = 10.7 inches
- Wheel articulation = 21.5 inches
- Ground clearance = 11.2 inches
- Approach angle = 33 degrees
- Breakover angle = 27 degrees
- Departure angle = 31 inches
- Wading depth = 33 inches
New electric variable-ratio speed-sensitive steering is standard for all Range Rover Sport models. Supercharged and Autobiography models have a Dynamic Response driving mode that makes the steering more responsive, firms up the ride quality, reduces body roll, quickens throttle response, and delivers faster transmission shifts. These two models also have a standard Adaptive Dynamics suspension with continuously variable dampers.
Big brakes are standard, employing ventilated discs at all four corners and equipped with Emergency Brake Assist and Corner Brake Control. The new Range Rover Sport is also offered with a lane-departure warning system, blind-spot monitoring with Closing Vehicle Sensing, Reverse Traffic Detection, adaptive xenon headlights, automatic high-beam assist, and an Adjustable Speed Limiter Device. Traffic Sign Recognition technology is also available, as well as a surround camera system, adaptive cruise control with Queue Assist, and park assist with Park Exit and Perpendicular Park upgrades.
Land Rover also introduces Flank Guard with the new Range Rover Sport, which is designed to warn the driver if he or she is about to scrape against a parking garage pillar, garage wall, or an adjacent vehicle.

SweetwaterŌĆÖs Kaleb Hoover scores two of his 19 points in last weekŌĆÖs game against Big Spring.
The Mustangs will try for their second win in district play when they host Snyder today.
Playoffs could be on the line in the opener of todayŌĆÖs Sweetwater vs. Snyder doubleheader at Mustang Gym, at least for the home team. Pride will be the primary motivation in the nightcap.
SweetwaterŌĆÖs girls face a must win against Snyder if they are to make it to the postseason.
The Lady Mustangs and Big Spring are tied for third place in the District 4-3A standings as both are 4-4 with two games remaining, and the teams have split in their two meetings, with each winning on the road.
SweetwaterŌĆÖs JV girls basketball team will be trying to get back on track today against Snyder after the team suffered its first defeat of the season Tuesday.
SweetwaterŌĆÖs 43-30 loss at Monahans came after the team had run off 21 straight wins this season.
Cierra Knox led Sweetwa-ter (7-1 in district play) on Tuesday by scoring 11 points while Abby McPherson had nine, Maddie Jones four, Jaya Atkins three, Lexi Castillo two and Bianca Castillo one. The freshman girls (4-4, 11-8) lost 31-15 as Alaina Andrews had five, Abby Garcia and Payton Moore four and Morgan Rudel two.
HighlandŌĆÖs girls may not be the lone Nolan County high school basketball team advancing to the playoffs this year. The Roscoe girls and Highland boys are both close to locking up berths.
Sweetwater girls
(2nd place):
Alexis Thompson ŌĆö 2nd in 114-pound class (465)
Valeria Zavaleta ŌĆö 1st in 123-pound class (520)
Suede Shirley ŌĆö 2nd in 148-pound class (550)
Dana Hohn ŌĆö 2nd in 165-pound class (685)
Ezzy Mermel ŌĆö 3rd in 181-pound class (525)
Nay Gonzales ŌĆö 3rd in 220-pound class (565)
Sweetwater boys:
Jay Lomas ŌĆö 2nd in 132-pound class (820)
Donald Baker ŌĆö 3rd in 148-pound class (980)
Austin Marlett ŌĆö 5th in 165-pound class (970)
Roscoe boys:
Jacob Lomas ŌĆö 5th in 132-pound class
Zack Longoria ŌĆö 5th in 148-pound class
Sweetwater 7th and 8th grade ŌĆśAŌĆÖ and ŌĆśBŌĆÖ boys host Snyder, 5 and 6:15 p.m.
Highland junior high teams host season-ending district tournament which ends on Saturday, Feb. 2.
Roscoe junior high teams at season-ending district tournament in Highland through Saturday, Feb. 2.
Sweetwater varsity will host Midland Greenwood in season-opening dual match starting at 4 p.m.
Sweetwater girls host Snyder ŌĆö JV at 5 p.m., varsity at 6:15 p.m., freshmen at 7:30 p.m.
MONAHANS ŌĆö The Sweetwater girls basketball team did what it had to do Tuesday in order to keep its playoff hopes alive this season as it went to Monahans and won, 54-43, to snap a three-game losing streak.
The win for Sweetwater (18-13, 4-4 district) came in its final road game of the year and, coupled with Big SpringŌĆÖs 60-24 loss to first-place Wylie on Tuesday, moved Sweetwater into a third-place tie in District 4-3A with the Lady Steers.
SweetwaterŌĆÖs basketball teams may well have to win at Monahans today in order to hold on to any realistic hopes of a District 4-3A playoff berth.
ThatŌĆÖs certainly true for the Sweetwater boys (1-4), who are two games behind Monahans (3-2), which is currently in third place.
But the Sweetwater girls (3-4) also need a win as they trail Big Spring (4-3) by a game for the No. 3 spot after losing three straight. They face a Monahans team that is 0-7, and Sweetwater probably has to win tonight and at home this Friday against 1-6 Snyder to have a realistic shot of getting to the playoffs.
SweetwaterŌĆÖs junior varsi-ty girls will be 21-0 when they go to Monahans today.
Sweetwater (7-0 in dis-trict) needs three more wins to have a perfect season after rolling to a 47-5 win at Greenwood Friday. Shaneese Brown and Abby McPherson had 10 points while Cierra Knox and Morgan Whitley had eight, Maddie Jones five, Jasmine Reddic four and Jaya Adkins and Nisha Williams one. Sweetwater led 29-1 at halftime and 40-3 after three periods of play.
The Sweetwater freshman boys basketball team is 6-4 for the season.
At front is coach Skylar Houston. From left are JŌĆÖCorey Amos, Hardy Escobar, Isaiah Gonzales, DŌĆÖJaman West, Brandon Gutierrez, Colton Jackson, Mark Lawrence, Joe Ruiz, Denzell Moore, Michael Lawrence, Adan Sanchez, Gage Hannah and Alontae Heath.

SCRANTON — Scranton City Council introduced amendments for the proposed budget for 2013 at the start of its meeting Thursday night.
"Essentially I'd like to eliminate all the raises," said Councilman Frank Joyce, as he read off the amendments.
The amendments would do away with raises for six city employees, including the Scranton fire chief, city solicitor, city council solicitor, business administrator, finance director and human resources director.
Council plans to vote on those amendments at its next meeting on December 13.
"I commend you, Councilman Joyce, for making these amendments to take those raises out. I don't think now is the time," said Les Spindler.
The proposed $109 million spending plan calls for a 12 percent property tax increase and a one percent commuter tax on non-residents who work in the city.
City leaders estimate the commuter tax, which still needs to be approved by the courts, would generate $2.5 million in 2013.
A hearing on the commuter tax is scheduled for Tuesday, December 11 at the Lackawanna County Courthouse.
"The city will never satisfy the debt it's saddled with. We're borrowing so much money to make it through this year that it's obscene," said Lee Morgan. "We've taxed everything I think we can tax."
Other residents felt this was good a budget.
It calls for no layoffs of city employees, such as police or fire, and the tax increase isn't as high as other cities.
"Such as Wilkes-Barre, which I believe is raising their taxes over 30 percent and they just laid off 11 fire men," said Doug Miller. "Hazleton is looking at an over 80 percent tax increase. So you see that it's happening everywhere."
City council is planning to take a final vote to pass the budget at its meeting on Thursday.
