What's special:
The downside:
Our review:
Origins High School, a small school with a liberal arts focus, opens with a 9th grade in the Sheepshead Bay High School building in September 2013, growing to become a 9-12 school serving about 450 students.
Principal John Banks, who taught middle school English at Arts & Letters for four years, aims to bring the same "culture and structure" of that District 13 K-8 school to Origins. There will be an advisory system, college and career preparation beginning in 9th grade with mentorships and internships, and an emphasis on literacy, research and writing.
As at Arts & Letters, students present their work in key academic subjects at twice yearly roundtables attended by teachers and community members. The goal is "to celebrate their work with family and community and to develop presentation skills," Banks said. Students produce extended math-science and humanities research projects, working with the help of their advisors. For arts subjects there are art shows or theater productions, he said.
Some 30 languages are spoken in Sheepshead Bay High School and because that school is phasing out, Origins may enroll students whose native language is Haitian Creole, Spanish or Russian, among others. If enough native speakers enroll, Banks said there may be bilingual Russian or Spanish language program.
"To have a community-based school is exciting to me," Banks said in a telephone interview. "There's a lot of community pride and a diverse community here."
The building has "wonderful athletic facilities" including an outdoor field and track. All the sports activities will continue on the Sheepshead Bay campus, Banks said. The building will house a transfer high school -- Professional Pathways High School -- and two charter high schools: New Visions Charter High School for the Humanities III and New Visions Charter High School for Advanced Math and Science III.
Admission: Priority to Brooklyn and to students who attend a fair or information session. (Pamela Wheaton, interview & web reports March 2013)

Former Michigan State center Derrick Nix signs with Latvian team VEF Riga
Even though Nix didn't get picked up by a NBA team, he has made a living playing in Europe.
Nix signed with the Latvian pro team VEF Riga.
"I made the team today and this is my new home," Nix tweeted. "I like it here it's bigger and better, and I've been playing really well!"
Nix started his professional career in Slovenia but parted ways with the team in the preseason.
Even though it's not the NBA, Spartans coach Tom Izzo sounds proud of his former player throwing in a joke along the way..
"Tell Nixer to take care of his business over in Europe, and I'd like to weigh him in
right now though," Michigan State coach Tom Izzo said last month. "I would like to weigh him in right now."

Sorry Dorothy. It was raining when I planned to go look at the water flow. As mentioned before, we have had a lot of rain this week. All streams and rivers have got to be flowing. The good news is that looks great. The bad news is that the bank you are planning to stand on may wash out when you step on it. Wave when you pass Cleveland. Be careful out there.

it sounds like you are going to have the entertainment with the Monty and Bob show. Where do you place bets. I haven't seen Monty since we were in Louisville, but it looked like he works out a lot more than Bob. He probably has to if he wants to move that 20x24 camera around. His pocket camera is a Dick Phillips 7x17.
So far sunny with blue sky. See you all at 9:00.
Have fun guys! I'll miss you and be thinking of you when I'm building lenses. If any work out, I'll bring them to next gathering.

Thanks for your kind and generous hospitality. We had a great time. I am mixing up fresh Xtol right now so I can see how Ann did back in the Ledges. Next time we will bring Gideon (I promise Jeff). See you in two months?.....or will that be too close to PhotoStock 2009 for the bi-monthly meeting?
Best regards,
Bob & Ann
John and Dolly,
Thanks for hosting the "Fissures, Fisher's, fissures, Fisher's, fissures, Fisher's, where's Fisher?, there's a kingfisher!" edition of the NEOH APUG get together. I had a great time.
It was very nice to get in the shooting time, print viewing, and general and photographic talk and idea exchanges with a fine bunch of people.
Thanks to Shawn for the surplus chems, ic-racer for the darkroom tour, and to everyone who shared their work. Already looking forward to next time, and hope those who were busy elsewhere can make it back.
Oh, yeah... I say the missing Fisher owes us a full report at the next gathering on the activities that kept her away from from our gathering. Perhaps that could be one of the 'workshop' style activities that John asked about. It's dangerous to miss a gathering, you might get elected to something.

I had a fabulous time and have nearly forgotten the "jeep incident". It only took two hours to get home, which means I'm getting more comfortable traveling. This also means, it will be easier to get there next time, and maybe spend more time. Thanks Dale for sharing your darkroom with us. Good luck Jeff and Eva. Thanks all for expanding our horizons. And most of all John and Dolly for your wonderful hospitality. Also, a huge thank you to Jeff and Eva for sharing your AAA!!! Nick, sorry I was too tired to look at the meter. Shawn, your miniatures were great. Anne & Bob, nice seeing you again and Norm. And Peter and Lee, always good to see you too. Hope I didn't miss anything or anyone, oh and the girls too!

"We ordered this in blue, the wedding color and were thrilled! They are very simple, yet elegant and so appropriate for an outdoor blue wedding. Nice paper quality. Very happy."
"These perfectly fit the update we were looking for on the traditional black and white invitation. Wedding Paper Divas did a great job editing the wording to reflect my husband's late parents, and customizing the back. We tied them together with Tartan plaid ribbons to add a little extra holiday pop for our December wedding. We received so many compliments and couldn't have been happier!"
"The flexibility given with creating invitations through Wedding Paper Divas is great! We love our invitations and how they turned out."
"I chose this design because it not only fit my rustic spring theme but because of the overall design. The color and the writing combo is perfect. I love the shape and size of the invitation, it's also unique and different from a lot of other invitations I have looked at. I would definitely recommend the purchase of this invitation suite."
"I used this design for my wedding invitations and highly recommend it. We ordered it in the pearly paper and in a custom "meadow" green color which matched the bridesmaid dresses. It was beautiful. They arrived very fast too. The envelopes in silver were really nice as well."

Moore is conditioned for success in 2012
By Edward Aschoff
Quick: Name the SEC's leader in sacks and tackles for loss.
Jarvis Jones
? Obvious choice after he led the SEC with 13.5 sacks and 19.5 tackles for loss last year, but no.
How about
Jadeveon Clowney
? He's a freak, but think again.
Time's up!
Both were solid guesses, but both are staring up at the new kid on the SEC block -- Texas A&M defensive end
Damontre Moore
Damontre Moore has spent a lot of time in the offensive backfield this season.
The former outside linebacker has taken to his new position and run with it … right over opposing quarterbacks. He's tied for first in the nation with 11.5 sacks and stands alone nationally with 19 tackles for loss.
Jones' impressive 2011 debut might be a blip on the radar compared to what Moore could do in the next month.
"He's definitely come a long way," defensive line coach Terry Price said.
"He's really turned his game up and accepted the challenges that are put in front of him to be the hardest playing defensive end in the country."
He was a star in the Big 12 last year with his 8.5 sacks and 17.5 tackles for loss, but his numbers masked a glaring issue that his new coaches immediately noticed on film.
They saw a primo athlete who was also very sluggish at times. When he was on, he was dominant, but he was only registering around 30 or 40 plays a game. When Kevin Sumlin took over at A&M, he realized that if Moore was going to succeed in the line-driven SEC, he had to get into better shape.
Sumlin's extra workout sessions with strength coach Larry Jackson pushed spring practice back two weeks. It was something that irked Moore, who was antsy without his pads this spring, but as he prepares for his 10th game of the season, he looks back at the grueling punishment his body took and is thankful for the extra work.
"Those two weeks helped me build up my conditioning," Moore said.
"I'm able to run a lot longer than most big men my size. That was the advantage on my end and I'm able to work at a high level consistently and go 60, 80 plays down the line. When other people are dying off, I'm building up or staying consistent where I'm at."
Moore is basically a new man. He's physically and mentally tougher and his endurance has cranked his motor up to a level he didn't have in 2011. He's gone from taking himself out of games to taking wide receivers down from behind -- in a dead sprint.
That extra conditioning has also helped him adapted better up front. Having to constantly throw one's body into someone with more than 60 pounds on him each play can take a toll on someone's stamina, especially when you aren't used to so much contact.
But with Moore's one-track mind, he's too obsessed with hammering quarterbacks to worry about being out-muscled. Quarterbacks have something he wants -- the football – and he's willing to do whatever it takes to either get it, or make them feel sorry for ever deciding to take it.
"It's like a horse when you put on their blinders when they're about to race," Moore said. "They only see that one thing in front of them and that's how I feel. I see that one thing in front of me and I lock in on it and I hone in on it and I go get it."
Moore might be regularly terrorizing opposing backfields, but he's still managed to stay in the shadows of Jones and Clowney. League seniority will do that, but it doesn't bother Moore.
He isn't offended. He's motivated.
Moore understands he still has a lot to prove and he knows he has a great opportunity to earn more respect against the nation's top offensive this weekend in Tuscaloosa. Alabama features two future first-rounders in
Cyrus Kouandjio
D.J. Fluker
ĀwhoĀwill make Moore work for everything, and try to wear him out of 60 or 80 plays.
Moore relishes the opportunity. He's bested most who have stood before him, and while he isn't favored Saturday, he likes his odds.
"I don't mind being the underdog," he said. "I love proving people wrong.
"I like it when people say, 'You can't do that.' That way, when I go in there I have that motivation, that drive, that will and that want-to just to prove that I can do whatever I put my mind to.
"If you tell me I can't do it, then I'm going to go do it."

"It is likely that the amount of revenue generated was negatively impacted by the significant amounts of snow and extreme cold weather that affected all parts of Pennsylvania in January and has continued into February," says Gaming Control Board Executive Director Kevin O'Toole. Tax revenue in January of this year was $91,744,988. In a comparison of just the 11 casinos operating in January 2014 that were also open for the full month of January 2013, revenue fell by 9.6%.

Prospect profile: Meet Nate Godwin
Nick Gryniewicz
SOCIAL: Follow on Twitter | Friend on Facebook
Follow @USFBulls_Rivals
Picking the right fit is really important to Nate Godwin. That is what led him to de-commit from Minnesota in late December and eventually verbally commit to the USF.
"Coach (Willie_ Taggart reached out to me right after he got hired," said the three-star DB from Freedom High School in Tampa, FL. "I felt more comfortable picking USF"
Godwin will be taking his official visit to USF on Saturday, January 10th, a visit that he is has been looking forward to.
"[I'm excited] just to see everything, the facilities and all that, getting to know the players and all that," Godwin said. "I live in the city so I know a lot about it [USF]."
A big factor in Godwin's decision to de-commit from Minnesota to go to USF was an early opportunity to play.
"Playing time was a real factor," said Godwin. "I can come right away and make an impact for USF, quicker than with Minnesota where I would've most likely had to redshirt a year."
Godwin had a breakout senior season with Freedom High School. The 6-foot defensive back had 47 tackles, three interceptions and six pass breakups for the Patriots.
It seemed USF had missed out on Godwin after the DB verbally committed to Minnesota in October. The Bulls got back into the mix after Willie Taggart was hired as USF's new head coach, prompting Godwin to contemplate "decisions, decisions" on his twitter account.
"I built a relationship with both those guys and Coach Scott at USF, he is still there. It has been real fun."
If Godwin does indeed sign with the Bulls, he will be playing for newly hired defensive coordinator Chuck Bresnahan.
"I haven't really gotten to talk to him," Godwin said. "Anyone who came from the NFL is a good hire, he has good connections with the NFL, knows what it takes to get to the NFL and runs a pro-style system."
Godwin described the offseason as "enjoyable". The Freedom High School DB says that has been going "to USF and hang out with Coach Taggart."
He is looking forward to signing with the Bulls because; "Once I sign, I can actually get a workout from South Florida."
Godwin will be with the Bulls for spring practices and has yet to decide if he will enroll early to USF after graduating from Freedom High School in December.

Long-Stalled LNG Project Moves Toward FID
An agreement between US independent InterOil and the government of Papua New Guinea will see th e latter acquire an additional 27.5% stake in the Gulf Liquefied Natural Gas (also known as the Liquid Niugini LNG project). While this will raise the government ' s share in the project to a substantial 50%, including a previous entitlement to 22.5%, it will allow the long - delayed project to advance. Inte r Oil 's failure to secure supply agreements and bring in a larger partner had led to a series of missed deadlines , which in May 2012 prompted the government to issue a threat to cancel the project entirely .
Although this threat was later rescinded, the outlook for the project remained uncertain, as negotiations between Royal Dutch Shell and InterOil, had at the time of writing, failed to secure an agreement despite the Anglo- Dutch major's interest in entering PNG ' s gas sector (see our online service, October 15 2012, ' Total Targets Asian LNG With Latest Farm-In').
The PNG Cabinet has now approved the project and InterOil has said it will advance a smaller than originally proposed 3.8mn t onnes per annum (mtpa) facility that was planned to come online by 2015. Having sold to the government half the Elk and Antelope gas fields that will provide feedstock for the terminal, PNG CEO Phil Mulacek said the project would now be 'fast-tracked' and the 'final phase of bidding and closure' would begin . T he company expects LNG partner agreement s to be finalised ' immediately ' . The swift advancement of the project will be supported by a special cabinet committee designed to quickly commercialise PNG's second LNG export terminal.
The announcement was good news for InterOil, which was battered by markets in May following the announcement that the project was at risk of being cancelled ; however , with the company's share price higher on the news, it may gain the momentum to exit its current downtrend.
|InterOil Could Trend Upwards With Advancing LNG Project
|InterOil Corp Stock Performance YTD (US$)
Forecast On Watch For Upward Revision, But Risks Remain
The government ' s support of the project , and the fact that the gas supply for the terminal has been identified and pre-front end engineering and design (FEED) largely completed, make s the project well poised to advance. However , InterOil has delayed a final investment decision (FID) on the project several times in its history, most recently in April 2012, and with agreements between the government and potential farm-in partner s yet to be finalised, we will await formal a FID before including Gulf LNG volumes in our forecast. In August , InterOi l suggested it may extend the deadline for a FID until December 31 2012 ; yet , on the back of an agreement with the government , we believe a formal decision on the project will come before 2013.
In its latest investor presentation from September 2012, the company cited heads of agreement (HOA) provisions with Noble Group , Guvnor , ENN and the Philippines Power Project for a total of 3.8mtpa of gas under 10-15 year supply agreements. While not binding, HOA agreements bode well for securing the formal supply agreements that will de-risk the project and support a positive FID.
Progress on the Gulf LNG project reinforces our bullish outlook for the PNG gas sector, and we highlig ht the positive role that the government played and looks set to continue playing, in advancing the project as a potential turning point in what remains a challenging business environment ( see ' Policy Improvements Seen As Resource Interest Grows ' , November 19 2012 ). This will help sustain growing interest in commercialising the country's gas, with Total recently entering the country ' s upstream with plans for an LNG project ( see ' Total Target s Asian LNG With Latest Farm-In ' , October 15 2012 ). The country's strategic location for exports to key growth markets in Asia and relatively underexplored acreage will sustain interest in its gas potential going forward.
PNG could even benefit from concerns regarding the future of an existing leading LNG exporter, with growing fears over reso urce nationalism supporting an increasingly uncertain outlook for Indonesian volumes ( see 'BPMigas Falls Victim To Resource Nationalism' , November 19 2012 ).
Yet , beyond the continued risks to upstream gas exploration from an absence of infrastructure, challenging environment and local opposition , as well as a unique land tenure agreement, we also cite the risk of cost overruns. While ExxonMobil ' s PNG LNG remains on track for 2014 first gas, costs had exploded by more than 20% to approximately US$19bn as a result of exchange rate movements, record rainfall over the past 2 years and wide-scale disputes with native landowners. While costs remain below neighbouring LNG projects in Australia , should development costs increase further it would undermine a key competitive advantage for LNG projects in PNG .

Pro-choice activists are battling to keep the House's Stupak-Pitts amendment out of the Senate version of the health care bill. In doing so, they find themselves squaring off against an old, nearly forgotten barrier: the 1977 Hyde amendment.
WEST CHESTER, Penn. (WOMENSENEWS)--Progressive organizations and pro-choice activists will team up for a rally in the capital on Dec. 2, during the week the Senate is expected to begin debating its version of health insurance reform.
Their aim: to stop senators from absorbing the Stupak-Pitts amendment--which is in the U.S. House of Representatives' bill--in their version.
"We're working our hearts out to stop Stupak-Pitts," Terry O'Neill, president of the National Organization for Women, or NOW, told Women's eNews in a recent interview.
The amendment--named for Rep. Bart Stupak, D-Mich., and Rep. Joe Pitts, R-Pa.--infringes on abortion access in three ways:
The practical result of the Stupak-Pitts amendment would mean "a new norm of exclusion" for abortion coverage, according to a recent analysis by George Washington University's School of Public Health.
In the five states that currently regulate the insurance industry's coverage of abortion there's no market for supplementary coverage. The George Washington University study concludes that it would be "virtually impossible" for the industry to segregate a supplemental abortion plan from a more general plan because of legal, technical and administrative hurdles. That could encourage insurers interested in participating in the public exchange system to drop abortion coverage, which is now widespread in private plans.
Activists will be pushing senators to accept a carefully crafted compromise on abortion named after Rep. Lois Capps, D-Calif., rather than one similar to Stupak-Pitts.
Scuttled by the vote on Stupak-Pitts, the Capps amendment proposes a ban on federal funding for abortion, except in cases of rape, incest or to save the life of the mother. But Capps' compromise does allow insurance companies in the exchange and a government-run plan to cover abortion if women pay for the service through premiums.
With its explicit and potential consequences, Stupak-Pitts is widely seen as the greatest infringement on abortion access since the days before Jan. 22, 1973, when abortion was illegal and the Supreme Court had not yet enshrined abortion as part of a woman's constitutional right to privacy in its Roe v. Wade ruling.
How did abortion restrictions manage to travel forward, politically speaking, under the cover of reforming health insurance?
The answer is the Hyde amendment, which was passed in 1977 and persists as an annual rider to the Department of Health and Human Service's spending bill.
Hyde prohibits federal funding for abortion for Medicaid recipients, except in cases of rape, incest or if the woman's life is threatened.

Migranous vasospasm
Dr Frank Gaillard ◉ et al.
Migranous vasospasm is a subset of reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome. It is also known as "crash migraine" although it is sometimes described as a separate condition.
Whether migraine is actually a predisposing factor to RCVS or it is simply that migraine is common (up to 12% of the population) and will therefore be reported by patients with RCVS is uncertain. Migraineurs with RCVS do not report typical migranous auras, and is different from thier normal migraines.

- False leads in search for missing jet
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — As frustration was setting in, calmer seas returned Wednesday and the search for the remains of Flight 370 began anew in remote waters of the Indian Ocean off western Australia.
Gale-force winds that forced an all-day delay Tuesday died down, allowing 12 planes and two ships from the United States, China, Japan, South Korea, Australia and New Zealand to resume the hunt for any pieces of the Malaysia Airlines jet — tangible evidence for the families seeking closure after more than two weeks of anguished uncertainty.
A day earlier, angry relatives shouted "Liars!" in the streets of Beijing about Malaysia's declaration that the plane went down.
Although officials sharply narrowed the search zone based on the last satellite signals received from the Boeing 777, it was still estimated at 622,000 square miles, an area bigger than Texas and Oklahoma combined.
"We're not searching for a needle in a haystack — we're still trying to define where the haystack is," Australia's deputy defense chief, Air Marshal Mark Binskin, said at a military base in the Australian west coast city of Perth as idle planes stood behind him.
The Australian Maritime Safety Authority, which coordinates the search on Malaysia's behalf, said Wednesday's search will focus on 30,900 square miles of ocean. The search area is about 1,550 miles southwest of Perth.
Malaysian Airlines chairman Mohammed Nor Mohammed Yusof said it may take time for further answers to become clear.
"The investigation still underway may yet prove to be even longer and more complex than it has been since March 8," he said.
There is a race against the clock to find Flight 370's black boxes, whose battery-powered "pinger" could stop sending signals within two weeks.
Nearly 100 relatives and their supporters marched Tuesday to the Malaysian Embassy in Beijing, where they threw plastic water bottles, tried to rush the gate and chanted, "Liars!"
Many wore white T-shirts that read, "Let's pray for MH370." They held banners and shouted, "Tell the truth! Return our relatives!"
Police briefly scuffled with a group of relatives who tried to approach journalists. The relatives demanded to see the Malaysian ambassador, and they later met with him.

Austin Police Chief Essentially Congratulates His Cops for Not Raping a Woman
On Thursday morning, Austin police attempted to stop a young woman jogging near the University of Texas campus after she crossed against the light. The young woman, who had headphones on, did not hear the police as they yelled at her to stop, so they reacted in the most measured of ways. Texas Monthly reports: »

I have no idea what people are thinking when they listen to hip-hop purely for the lyrics, like it's such a make-or-break component... that's like exactly the reason I've never been too big into hip-hop, for me the flow/beats/hooks/etc. are so much more important, like it's not even close.
Album Rating: 3.0 | Sound Off^^^that
people take rap music and their disdain for certain aspects of it entirely too seriously
Album Rating: 3.8yeah i barely listen to lyrics
Album Rating: 2.5i dont really listen to lyrics either, but I do notice when they're bad and its distracting.
Album Rating: 3.8yes absolutely
Yeah I only download the instrumentals for albums. Fuk words, they are for the weak

the whole point was the value of what's being said vs. how it's said
He just copies other styles and this doesn't even have the good beats from his first album
It doesn't have the Clammy Clamz fuk u
I don't go into rap music focusing solely on lyrics. Beats/flow/hooks play a major part and if it catches my ear it catches my ear. I look at people who complain about lyrics sucking to be just like those who are all about guitar wankery. Being technical is cool and all but who fucking cares if it isn't catchy.
Album Rating: 2.5lol you sound like someone who listens to pop radio.
It's got 2. It needs like 8 more
Lol, even if it seems like that's the case it isn't :p.

Something needs to be done about the needy people congregating around Staunton traffic lights and approaching vehicles. Where can they be directed? What's the city doing about it? I don't feel comfortable stopping at a light seeing people walk up to vehicles. They aren't all homeless or jobless. It gives the city a bad image.

I think the biggest issue is too much white space.
Things are a lot slower. Get the spinning ball a lot. Is this the javascript?
The right side bar needs to be re-thought, It is too short (shallow) so once you scroll down a very large chunk of the screen is white space.
This is an odd font (size choice). It is hard to read. It is either too big or too small.
I guess I really liked the old format. I use a few different help boards (pentaho, linux, macosxhints) and I always thought the apple community discussions was one of the best. It had a very tight layout. Lots of information on the screen and not cluttered or busy.
Not true now.
Whats up with the balloon framing postings? Complete waste of space.

Harvey Weinstein Jumps Gun on Touting David O. Russell's Next Project
The Hollywood Reporter -- This story first appeared in the April 5 issue of The Hollywood Reporter magazine.
No so fast. Harvey Weinstein jumped the gun when he announced during Oscar week that David O. Russell would direct The Ends of the Earth, reuniting him with his Silver Linings Playbook star Jennifer Lawrence.
In fact, Russell was not committed to the project, and others involved say he's not directing it. But after calls from THR, a source close to Russell, who remains intensely loyal to Weinstein, insists he's "still seriously considering it" but hasn't made up his mind.
PHOTOS: Behind the Scenes of 'Silver Linings Playbook' With Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence
Weinstein, arguably the industry's shrewdest awards maestro, announced the Russell news Feb. 19 &mdash the last day of Oscar voting. Silver Linings was up for eight awards, and more attention couldn't hurt, particularly for Lawrence, who had the best shot of winning (and did, as best actress).
The Weinstein Co. press release included a glowing quote from Russell: "She is the most dedicated person I know. She is devoted to her family, and they have been the true inspiration for her. &hellip Her acting is effortless, and she always makes it look easy."
The Weinstein Co. wouldn't comment on the record, but insiders insist talks with Russell are ongoing.
PHOTOS: THR's Oscar Nominees Night: Jennifer Lawrence, Steven Spielberg, Naomi Watts Celebrate at 2013 Bash
Ends of the Earth has an enviable pedigree. Chris Terrio, who wrote Oscar winner Argo, penned the fact-based love story about an oil tycoon who loses everything after he is caught in an affair. The film is being produced by Todd Black, Steve Tisch and Jason Blumenthal of Escape Artists.
Currently, Russell is shooting his untitled Abscam project starring Christian Bale, Amy Adams and Silver Linings star Bradley Cooper. Lawrence has a cameo in the film, which recounts the famous FBI sting operation in the late 1970s and early 1980s that brought down a handful of Capitol Hill lawmakers.

I really don't understand the great reviews for this foundation. It goes on great, and looks great the first 3 hours, but after that it gets so oily and basically melts off! And I'm someone with super dry skin! I bought this after seeing youtubers raving about it, and now idk what to do with it!

MAC Studio Sculpt is by far my favorite foundation now. I have combination skin with occasional dry patches on my cheeks, and it took me years to find a foundation that is moisturizing, provides medium to full coverage, lasts all day, doesn't cling to the dry patches one tiny bit, looks very natural. I didn't get any breakouts from this foundation, in fact my skin looks better and healthier, and I have less clogged pores than ever.
You can get medium to full coverage, and even with full coverage it feels very good on the skin. I'm one of those people who usually finds almost every foundation heavy and uncomfortable to wear, running to the bathroom to wash it off. Studio Sculpt is great this way, I don't even notice it is there.
I was surprised to see people saying it is cakey. Perhaps, they aren't applying it right?
I simply apply this foundation with my fingers, right on top of my Shiseido Ibuki moisturizer, and it blends beautifully, leaving natural, satiny finish. I don't use any powder to set it, I don't feel it is necessary (maybe powder makes some ladies' faces cakey?). If I'm having an oilier skin day, I just blot with a kleenex. I get a full day of perfect finish without any problems.
I'm not sure why some people have the settling in lines/pores issue. Never had that happen. This might not work for under-eye concealing, I don't know, but then it is not really designed for it, just use Prolongwear concealer instead- never creases.
My main tip for those who want to buy Studio Sculpt is to get a few samples and test them out first in good light, because I find that colors run a bit dark or maybe it oxidizes a little on me, and it is impossible to see the color right in the store light right after they apply it. I have light skin, but I'm not the pales girl ever. A consultant matched me to NW20, as I have cool tone skin but I found it too dark and too pink, so I matched myself to NC15 instead, as it is a very nice neutral color, not yellow at all. Perfect match. So try the foundation yourself, and don't be afraid to try both nw and nc.
I highly recommend this foundation, I think it is wonderful. I have repurchased it already, it's so good. Beats Chanel Vitalumier and various Lancomes!

The best yet!!!!Truly impressive foundation.I was happy with becca but went to mac because whenever I compliment someones makeup they are wearing mac.So the MA put the moisturizing ,full coverage studio sculpt on in nw25 and then studio fix in nw25.Simply beautiful combo. So now that I am completely satisfied with my foundation I was wondering if you ladies think mac foundation brushes and powder brushes really make a difference???UPDATE: IF YOU WANT MOISTURE AND COVERAGE MIX WITH LAURA MERRCIER SILKCREME MOISTURIZING PHOTO EDITION....LOOKS FAB

My HG foundation!! I have been using this for over 2 years now and I'm only halfway through my second tube, a little definitely goes a long way.
First layer is probably medium coverage but I usually just take whatever is left on the back of my hand and apply it to any problem areas and then it gives a really nice full coverage foundation.
It is a gel like formula so it is a little more difficult to blend than really runny liquid foundations, but it is not difficult at all. It lasts soo long, I put it on about 7:30am and then when I come home about 5:00pm it is still looking good, a little shiny but I can get away without having to powder all day.
I suffer from eczema and dry patches and this is perfect for that - nothing covers eczema better, it covers the redness and doesn't cling or highlight the dry and flaky areas.
I wouldn't recommend this for people with oily skin as it is a very moisturizing, dewy foundation and it may make your skin look extra shiny if you suffer from oily skin.
One bad thing about it - it does go super cakey if you powder it heavily. I made the mistake of completely mattifying my face with powder while wearing this and after 2 hours it looked cakey and just absolutely horrible - do don't do that!!
Overall, I would recommend this foundation if you like medium/full coverage foundation that gives a dewy finish and you don't mind giving the powder a miss (obviously, lightly set it but don't add too much).
Love this foundation!! Holy grail!

Great foundation for heavy coverage. When I suffered badly from Acne this was the only foundation to give proper coverage and not cause more spots. I used it throughout my acne treatment on Roaccutane and it caused no problems. It is quite heavy and now my skin is clear I only need to use a tiny amount however as it is quite a heavy foundation I wouldn't recommend it for daily wear if you want a light finish- I only use it for evenings, and have something lighter for daytime.

I'm super excited, because I FINALLY found the right foundation for my skin. It's hard to leave a review for foundation (unless it's non-functional) because it's one of those cosmetic items that really depends on your skin type, chemistry, etc. A few years ago my skin went from normal/combination to dry/sensitive. I tried a bunch of different foundations, but this one is finally what did it. It doesn't settle in my lines, it's moisturizing enough, but not too much, and it also is the PERFECT color. I definitely don't think this would be ideal for someone with oily skin, but if you have normal/dry-ish skin, then this could possibly work well. I find it long-lasting as well.

The distinctive thing about MAC is that the shades best reflect the full spectrum of skin tones. The other distinctive thing about MAC, is that it is known to be harsh on the skin. In all fairness I've never had any make up improve my skin, but MAC foundation certainly takes it's toll.
I didn't give this a higher ranking because it looks oily after a few hours. In person it looks very airbrushed and complete, but in pictures the oiliness is even more apparent. The SPF concentration is only 15. I absolutely must use this with powder, otherwise the oil will surface even sooner. I'll keep it around until I find a better liquid, but this is not "the one".
Age: 25-29
Skin: Combination, Olive, Warm
Hair: Brown, Wavy, Fine

APPLICATION METHOD: sponge
SKIN TYPE: combination
- satin finish
- easy to blend
- medium to full build-able coverage
- lightweight
- packaging
- settles into fine lines & pores
- clings slightly onto dry spots
- can look heavy/cakey
- becomes blotchy throughout the day
- poor staying power
COMMENTS: This is a satin finish, medium to full coverage foundation. Don't expect this to control oil or stay on well because it's a more emollient formula, but surprisingly still clings to dry spots. It's lightweight, but always looks heavy regardless of my application method. It just doesn't look smooth. It looks blotchy throughout the day and settles into fine lines and pores pretty quickly. It just doesn't make the skin look pretty. Also, keep in mind that the oils and pigment can separate. Make sure to shake the tube well prior to using.
Will not repurchase.

I'm really gutted I don't like this foundation as I really wanted to, I love mac foundations having used prolongwear and studio fix before although I was getting fed up with the "full coverage" and "made up" look I wanted something with more of a satin or dewy finish and I found this, as it sates it has a satin finish but with medium / buildable coverage which sounds awesome but honestly this just doesn't work, as it's gel based it sets very fast so you have to work quickly. If you only want to use a small amount for a lighter coverage it's difficult as it sets and is so hard to blend out. I have really easy skin to work with I can pretty much use anything without any oiliness or dry patches but after an hour or two of wear my t zone is glowing I found myself having to powder constantly. It sets into fine lines terribly underneath the eyes making the skin look dry and cakey (ew) and on the forehead making me look old and I'm only 23!!! I didn't even notice I had lines on my forehead until this foundation highlighted them for me lol! Some people really love this though so maybe it's just not what I wanted as I said before I wanted to come away from the cakey full coverage appearance and with this I feel like you have to use a lot of product for it to blend.
On a positive I really like the smell of this it doesn't seem to have that paint scent like studio fix does, and the packaging is really good as it's a squeeze tube you will get most of the product out of it. But for me that's as far as the positives go! :(
