wow ! Ive been using this product under my new HG (MAC Studio fix fluid with Maybelline Dream matte pressed powder) and ive noticed that this makes my makeup last soooo long and also it doesnt dry out my cheeks like other primers do. I have a redness that tends to show at the end of a work day but somehow this keep the foundation right in place. One day i decided to just wear foundation with another primer and it really did not give off that finish that i was looking for. It is definitely pricy but definitely worth trying. Ps. I have really oily skin but with this on i barely used 1 sheet.

people fail to realize that this product isn't making the claim to prime for makeup.
i loove love love this for a brightening pick me up. i don't wear foundation but if i want my skin to look extra special i'll put this on and it makes my skin look nice, even and bright and sunshine-y. haha. love love it.

This did nothing as a primer. I gave it a star for the pink cast I got, but as a primer, I noticed no filling or smoothing. Plus, it broke me out.

I'm a BeneFit fan, but this product is a dud. It feels really good going on and smells nice, but it does NOTHING. I saw no so-called "brightening" effect whatsoever: it just sort of soaks in and disappears. Some here say this doesn't claim to be a primer, but says "Primer And Face Brightener" right on the package. As a primer it bombs: it changes neither the look nor texture of my skin, and it provides no slip or staying power for make-up whatsoever. The packaging is kind of neat, but you get shockingly little product for the price.
Someone who is 18 years old with perfect, glowing skin might enjoy this, but if that's the case you probably don't need this or any similar product anyway. For everyone else, get a REAL primer like Smashbox PhotoFinish (or use the Monistat Anti-Chafing Gel, which is basically the same thing for exponentially less $$).
I'll give it another try in the Summer when my skin is less dry, but I don't have high hopes. FYI-- while I am 44 years old, I actually have pretty good skin that doesn't need much help. IMO, this is a waste of money as a primer.
**UPDATE** I added two lippies because this product shows promise as a subtle, non-shimmery highlighter over foundation/blush. If this wears well throughout the day, I might actually enjoy it! (as a primer I stick to my original assessment-- boo! --and it really is too expensive)

A light pink cream. It has a sweet strawberry scent. Feels sticky on application. I did not see much brightening effect on my skin after application. Not worth the $

I have to say that I really like this primer. As a face brightening primer, I think it works well enough. The product is a pink-toned liquid primer that goes on translucent with a slight sheen. I think the "brightening" aspect of this primer might be a tad overblown. It was barely noticeable under my Este Lauder Double Wear Light, Lancome Tiente Idole Ultra, MAC Studio Fix, and Benefit Some Kind of Gorgeous (all sheer to medium natural to matte finish foundations). However, it was a glowing, dewy, shiny mess under my NARS Sheer Glow. Sheer Glow worked great with my other primers, but not so much with this one. I guess there was just too much brightening going on.
All brightening nonsense aside, this stuff is GREAT for keeping makeup in place and helping it last all day which is what any and all primers should do in my opinion. I feel like this primer extended the wear and aided in the application of all of my foundations except the NARS Sheer Glow. I can't give an honest opinion on that, as I removed that mess less than a hour after having it on.
The product comes in a tube with a twist-up dispenser type set-up. I find that, while odd, I don't mind the way the product is dispensed. I can get just enough without wasting any product. I often find that pumps give me too much/too little and inevitably product is wasted. Not so with this. The smell is like nothing else out there... just like baby aspirin as someone else mentioned... weird, but not awful.
I have lots of different primers that I'm trying to work my way through, but I think this one will be something that I repurchase. It does a great job with the foundations that I most often use and I can't ask for more than that!

I bought the Benefit To Go Bestsellers Mini kit...and thank God I didn't go for the full sized product. I was very dissapointed with this product, as well as two of the other three in the set.
This was way too wet and didn't do a darned thing when applied. I gave it to my sister who loves Benefit products rather than throw it out. I never would have given this any more tries than the two I gave it.
Full sized product is expensive, especially for a product that is essentially useless.

I really like this primer. I would have never tried it if I hadn't seen swatches on the internet of it on a woman with similar coloring as me. It's pink for crying out loud! But once you blend it away, it just disappears like magic! I let a friend of mine with pale skin and lots of redness on her cheeks try this primer and all the redness just faded away.
I mostly use it on the apples of my cheeks underneath my blush (usually NARS Orgasm, sometimes Laura Geller's Blush-n-Brighten in Sunswept) and it helps my blush stay brighter longer. Sometimes when I've had a late night or just looking extra dull I apply a thin layer all over my face. It brightens up my face without looking shimmery or glittery, just fresh and awake.
My only dislike is that I can't tell how much product is left in the "glue stick". It's a sad day when all I hear is "click click click" and nothing comes out the top. Actually, that just happened to be yesterday... gotta go pick up another stick!
There is a slight advantage to the glue stick container though. I carry it in my purse everywhere I go and I never have to worry about it squeezing open and spilling everywhere!

I love this product! Though I don't use it as a foundation primer (I actually use Smashbox Photo Finish daily under my foundation), a great makeup artist at Ulta showed me his favorite way to use it. After putting on my Photo Finish and then foundation (usually a mineral one), I then pat just a bit of this on the apples of my cheeks. Let it set for about 30 seconds, then use an all over sheer blush/bronzer-type product (for ex, Benefit's Dandelion or Coralista) on top and the That Gal will really make the sheer color show up better and stay on longer. After that, I just do a bit of a regular blush if I feel like I need any more color. I agree that it doesn't really do well as an all over foundation primer, but for making blush or all-over color "stick," this is a great product!

This is a lovely primer :) I only started wearing primer about 8 months ago- and it reeally makes a difference to your makeup lasting and look etc.... My Holy Grail primer is Rimmel Fix + perfect, Im particularly fond of cream primer as opposed to matte/gel one's becuase they just feel off on my skin and suck the moisture right out of it. Anywho, I received a mini size of this in a swap- I have no idea how much the full size costs, although I hear its expensive and comes in packaging similar to a glue stick. Anywho, I love this! it glides on my skin smoothly, and lightly mattifies and actually brightens my skin a bit. That being said, it basically does the same job as my Rimmel primer- so I don't think I will be repurchasing this. I do love this though!

I worked for a local wholesaler for 15 months. Its a very small local-owned company. 25 employees. I have a history in this business and applied for the position. When I started, I was given an employee handbook, but only given verbal statements as to how to do my job, as an outside salesman. I developed what I needed to do over time, and by the other 6 outside salesmen there. My territory was the only town that the company was in, the other guys had large territories.
My job is to build relationships with the contractors that used our products, to persuade them to purchase from us, instead of the corporate competition. Take care of warranties, show products etc. One of our biggest business' is with new projects, such as hotels, hospitals, etc. Its an extremely huge competition. And with the economy, the amount of jobs started dropping, and the competition started getting tougher and tougher. As a local company, we just couldn't compete sometimes.
The owners of the company, I believe know it, but find it easier to blame their employees. I found out about a year after I worked for them, that I was second choice, and the guy they wanted left after 2 days to the competition for better money. The guy who worked before me was given a choice, because of economy/business, to leave within 30 days or be fired. He left. I had 2 days of training inside the company, none for formal outside sales.
I had went home every day for lunch, and sometimes through out the day for the entire time I worked there. Not the entire day, but if I set up appointments and/or got my work done, I went home or did personal stuff. The other sales people stated thats exactly what they do/did, and no where in my handbook did it state I couldn't do that, nor was it told to me via verbal.
One day I was coming in the afternoon and the boss/owner pulled me into his office, and said today is your last day with XX supply co. Our company owned cell phones have a gps tech and they knew that I was going home, and they blamed me for the business starting to fall. I was offered 60 days COBRA, and I could pay for after. I was not warned ever, written or verbal. and not allowed my side of the story. I was walked out. This took approx 10 minutes from the time I walked into the office until the time I was escorted out.
The same day I filed for unemployment, and had my phone interview 5 weeks later. The next day after getting fired, I was called by out largest competitor with a job offer. I went in, and the manager was wanting me hired, after compliments from my customers. The area manager decided I was too-high risk because of my

I am very happy living in this apartment complex. I have had few problems living here. The building is very clean, the common areas are well maintained, and the staff is very helpful and efficient. I love living here.
The area is quiet, the neighbors are friendly and the staff is caring and listen to your needs. Amazing place to live.
I feel safe as a single lady & the office manager was excellent when I was signing my lease & moving in. Extra touches like emails when a package arrives. Parking can be bear bc of how the lot is setup, esp coming home late from a wkend trip, you have to sometimes park farther away then normal. Also, the dumpsters are blocking the main path from the back door, where you have to walk through the dumpsters to get into the lot when cars are parked next to the fences, which is kind of gross.

Everything as promised, all utilities except electricity fall under rent. Clean buildings and grounds. Friendly staff, they work hard and send out a newsletter every month with helpful suggestions for neighbors and community. It's quiet and safe with many families living here. I would only say that the snow removal on the parking lot could improve and parking availability. Also, most stores and facilities are not nearby, so it is a bit of a drive to Schaumburg for many stores.
Rent includes most utilities. Very fair price. Neighbors are respectful of each other.

I am mulling over the LX100 to replace my current Sony NEX-5R for underwater photography and videography -- I find I am more interested in video when I dive, than in still photos (although I do both). I found this video, recently posted, and it looked pretty nice -- seems to have good detail, although the white balance is off in places (in my experience, a Magic Filter works wonders for U/W video). Here is the link:
Does anyone else have experience with this camera underwater? How does it handle? How is the video?

Alleged killer William Balfour will stand trial on April 23 for slaying singer's family members.
Three and a half years after a senseless killing spree took the lives of her mother, brother and 7-year-old nephew, Jennifer Hudson may finally see justice done in a court of law. The man accused of the murders, William Balfour, will stand trial beginning April 23.
In October of 2008, Balfour, the estranged husband of Jennifer's sister Julia, allegedly broke into the Hudson's Chicago home in a jealous rage. He then gunned down mother Darnell Donerson, 55, brother Jason Hudson, 29, and nephew Julian King, 7.
Young Julian was not found until three days later, when his body was discovered in the back of Balfour's SUV.
The Oscar-winning actress and singer has rarely spoken on the tragic loss, save for an emotional appearance on Oprah in February of last year. At the time, she spoke of the difficulty of making sense of it all.
"It's such a shocking thing," she said. "It's a lot to take in. It's like, 'OK, is this real? Did this really happen?' It's hard to put it in sync with reality."
Hudson went on to say that the spirit of her mother persists as a driving force in her life.
"I try to do everything to say, 'OK, will my mother like this? Will she be pleased? Will she be proud of that? How do I know she's happy and she's smiling down at me from heaven?'" she said. "That's what I try to go by and walk by."
Balfour, who was arrested in December of 2008, is facing multiple counts of first degree murder, aggravated kidnapping and home invasion. His lawyers had succeeded in delaying his trial for years, but yesterday Cook County Judge Charles Burns decreed that the case must move forward. Jury selection begins April 9.

Indigenous Women's Expectations of Clinical Care during Treatment for a Gynaecological Cancer: Rural and Remote Differences in Expectations
Willis, Eileen M., Dwyer, Judith, Owada, Kei, Couzner, Leah, King, Debra, Wainer, Jo, Australian Health Review
Objectives. To report on differences in Indigenous women's expectations of clinical care during treatment for a gynaecological cancer in rural and remote regions.
Design. Qualitative interviews were conducted in New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and the Northern Territory in 2008 with 37 clinicians working in gynaecological cancer and 24 women with a gynaecological cancer. Three of the participants were Indigenous women living in large rural towns (others were non-Indigenous), whereas six of the 37 clinicians interviewed worked closely with Indigenous women in remote settings. Indigenous women were contacted through an Indigenous researcher. Interviews were analysed for emerging themes, then compared with each other and with the research literature for similarities and differences.
Results. There is considerable variation between clinician observations of the expectations of Indigenous women in remote regions, and the views of Aboriginal women in rural settings.
Conclusion. Indigenous women in rural settings have specific views about quality medical care. These include expectations of timely and culturally appropriate care, and strong ties to family and kin, but do not accord with other research findings that suggest Aboriginal women must receive care from same sex clinicians or that care is often delayed. The paper alerts practitioners to the fact that culturally appropriate care will vary from group to group, particularly between remote, rural and urban populations.
What is known about this topic? Cross-cultural health care research recognises that health professionals need to be attuned to the cultural preferences and needs of Indigenous patients.
What does this paper add? This study warns against assuming all Indigenous people are the same, or have the same expectations about quality health care. It notes that little guidance is offered to clinicians on how Indigenous responses to Western bio-medical care might differ across the country. The paper identifies some differences and proposes strategies for understanding local preferences.
What are the implications for practitioners? This paper alerts practitioners to the fact that although Indigenous patients share many cultural similarities, clinicians should not make assumptions about what is appropriate culturally safe care. Culturally appropriate care will vary from group to group, particularly between remote, rural and urban populations in terms of timely access, culturally appropriate care and educational materials, the role of family and Aboriginal Health Workers, and sex preferences.
The requirement for culturally safe and respectful care to Indigenous clients is extensively documented in Australian medical and health care research literature.1-4 This advice usually warns against assuming all Indigenous people are the same, or have the same expectations and responses to illness and care.5-8 Despite this, little guidance is offered to clinicians on how Indigenous responses to Western bio-medical care might differ across the country. In this study, we compared the expectations of quality care identified by a small number of Indigenous women living in larger regional centres, who had experienced gynaecological cancer, with the literature and with the perceptions of six clinicians who had experience in caring for Indigenous women in remote areas. This study was conducted as part of a larger project commissioned by Cancer Australia.9
According to the research literature two major issues confront Indigenous women with a gynaecological cancer: poor access to health services, including lack of resources, and culturally inappropriate care. The high rate of gynaecological cancers among Indigenous women, particularly those living in remote and rural regions has been attributed to a lack of accessible primary health care services and access to cancer specialists.1 This makes it difficult for Indigenous women to receive screening, diagnosis and treatment for gynaecological cancers. …

|Normally: �74.96 GBP ($108.93 USD)
'Trance Elevation Bundle (Vols 1-3)' brings together this best-selling series with an immense set of 30 club-ready Trance Construction Kits in ACID, Apple Loops, REX & Reason Refill formats. With dry, processed, up/down filter loops & MIDI files, this versatile collection is perfect for even the most demanding producer. The Trance Elevation series was produced by Jonathan Blakoe of 'Static Blue'.
'Trance Elevation Bundle (Vols 1-3)' is the ultimate tool-kit for producing professional, top level Trance tracks. Each of the 30 HUGE Construction Kits (over 5GB total content) from the combined volumes are compatible with all sequencers and samplers on Mac and PC. For intermediate and advanced users who want to assign their favourite hardware synth or virtual instrument sounds, MIDI data is also provided.
About the Producer:
The Trance Elevation series was produced for ProducerLoops.com by Jonathan Blakoe of Static Blue. His remixes for 'Armin Van Buuren', 'Sunny Lax', 'Kamil Polner' and 'Adam Szabo' have earned him much respect from all of the major players on the Trance scene.
MP3 Demos:
All of the parts you hear in the MP3 demo are included in this product. Nothing is missing. Furthermore, all parts are included on their own (isolated) allowing you to incorporate as much or as little of the Construction Kit into your tracks as desired.
About the Construction Kits:
All of the elements of the Construction Kits have been broken-out into separate files. Each part has been isolated so you can choose which parts you want to use in your own track. All parts are "looped" perfectly, so you can simply drag and drop the desired parts into your music sequencer.
Built for all level of Producers:
This product has been constructed from the ground up with 'usability' in mind. It has been designed to appeal to beginners, intermediate and professional users alike. Please read on for examples of what we did to achieve this.
Dry and Processed Loops:
We have included dry and processed (wet) versions of the loops for most parts, to give you ultimate flexibility when mixing these into your tracks. Beginners will want to use the wet versions, whereas the intermediate and advanced users will find the dry versions and MIDI files particularly useful.
MIDI Files:
MIDI files have been provided for the melodic synthesizer riffs (including leads, pads and basslines). Therefore, if you want to put these melodies through your own synthesizers or plugins then no problem, simply import the MIDI file into your sequencer and select your own synth or plugin as the output.
Up-filters, Down-filters & Flat-filters:
For most synthesizer leads (and some pads) we have provided an up-filter, a down-filter and a flat-filter. So, you can build the huge anthem sound up to a climax, let it roll for a while, then filter it back down again. Obviously, we understand that advanced users may want to use the MIDI riffs instead, but producers of all levels can use the audio parts exactly as they are without compromise.
Unlooped Riffs for Pro Producers:
We have included audio riffs that include reverb and delay tails for the professional producers out there. These do not loop because the reverb/delay tail can be up to 2 bars in length. These have been provided because sometimes you want the synthesizer lead part to fade out during a breakdown, for example.
All of the content in 'Trance Elevation Bundle (Vols 1-3)' is 100% royalty-free. Once purchased, you can use these audio loops and MIDI files in your music releases, both commercial and underground, with no restrictions.
Loop Contents:
• Basslines
• Clap Loops
• Crashes
• Drum Loops
• Kick Loops
• Kick Samples
• Hat Loops
• Pad Loops
• Plucked Synth Loops
• Reverse Cymbals
• Snare Loops
• Synth Leads
• Synth Arps
• Sound Effects
• 44.1 kHz/ 24-Bit Loops & Samples
• All loops sync to BPM
• PC/Mac Compatible
Large Download:
We have split each format into THREE separate downloads (one per volume), so if you have a slower connection you can download this product in smaller chunks.

I simply cannot believe that the Trance Elevation series has reached Volume Three already. I sincerely hope the series does not end here because the collection has to be one of the most creatively-inspiring libraries a producer can have on his hard disk and there must be oodles more ear candy to be had from producer Jonathan Blakoe.
So, it�s fingers crossed that Volume 4 appears in the not-too-distant future. Anyway, as far as this bundle goes, if you haven�t come across any of the Elevation series before, it contains all you need for banging floor-fillers � uplifters, FX one-shots, kicks, crashes, sub, low, mid and high bass, flat and peak leads, pads, filters � the full monty.
And one more quality thing about this bundle is that all the volumes have some superb melody riffs/leads... with that, I mean real tunes. I always bang on about �meaningless� trance tracks, whether euphoric, hardcore or psy, insomuch as a lot of output is boring, overlong and, quite frankly, tuneless.
This bundle packs a nice bunch of tunes so you can create something your mates will want to dance to and, as there are no fewer than 30 kits, you have plenty at your disposal to put hands in the air! They are all royalty-free and ready to use and will fit into any DAW out there.
Formats include ACID Wav, Apple, REX and Reason Refill formats.
For intermediate and advanced users who want to assign their favourite hardware synth or virtual instrument sounds, MIDI data is also provided.
The Trance Elevation series was produced by Jonathan Blakoe of �Static Blue�. His remixes for �Armin Van Buuren�, �Sunny Lax�, �Kamil Polner� and �Adam Szabo� have earned him much respect from all of the major players on the Trance scene.
As always, you can check out the bundle via the MP3 demos or audio player demos.

I need to implement a Single Sign on where a Com+ component should be called to authenticate the user & provide the roles. In short, I need to bypass the default mechanism in MVC 4 where it tries to access the aspnetdb database. So I started with a new MVC4 internet project and added the following code.
In Global.asax
public void FormsAuthentication_OnAuthenticate(object sender, FormsAuthenticationEventArgs args)
bool retval = CreateUserObject("John", "pwd");
private bool CreateUserObject(string userName, string password)
string[] currentUserRoles = { "Admin", "User" };
GenericPrincipal userPrincipal = new GenericPrincipal(new GenericIdentity(userName), currentUserRoles);
HttpContext.Current.User = userPrincipal;
//Thread.CurrentPrincipal = userPrincipal;
return true;
Within the HomeController.cs, I added the [Authorize] attribute for the "About" action as below and it works as expected
public ActionResult About()
However if I modify the [Authorize] attribute to permit only "Admin" role as below I get a runtime error (at the bottom). Is there a way around this to use my own collection of roles for the logged in user, instead of querying the database? I also need to do something similar to the user Profile as well (i.e, instead of database, I should populate the values from the Com+ application.
[Authorize(Roles = "Admin")]
public ActionResult About()

Toon Talk: Zorro: The Complete First and Second Seasons
Page 1 of 2
by Kirby C. Holt
Walt Disney Treasures:
Disney DVDs
'Z Wonderful
Since his creation in 1919 by American pulp fiction author Johnston McCulley, the masked avenger known as Zorro has lived on in everything from comic books to cartoons to video games, even a stage musical. But it is his onscreen persona that has been the most enduring, including multiple feature film incarnations performed over the years by the likes of Douglas Fairbanks, Tyrone Power, George Hamilton and Antonio Banderas. However, arguably his most iconic embodiment was Guy Williams' beloved portrayal on the classic Disney television program Zorro.
Following a Disney Movie Club exclusive set, the 1957-1959 series makes its DVD debut to the general public as complete season sets in this year's wave of Walt Disney Treasures. Their now familiar tin cases jet-black for the occasion, the two separate, six-disc releases (complete with collectable pins) became available this week.
Filled with daring-do and swashbuckling action, each of the series' 78 half-hour episodes (ranging from stand-alone stories to multi-parters) are included, as well as the four hour-long adventures (originally intended for the third season of Zorro) presented on Walt Disney Presents. Once again, your host Leonard Maltin is on hand to introduce each Treasures set, as well as offer his specialized commentary — as both fan and Disney historian — in the bonus materials.
Premiering in the fall of 1957, Zorro was Disney's first foray into serialized television, and what a perfect fit was for the studio. With its own dashing Robin Hood of a hero dedicated to protecting the innocent and upholding justice in the "wild west" of Old California, Zorro was an ideal vehicle to extend the studios' presence on the then-nascent medium. And, like Davy Crockett before it, it was an instant success, spawning a slew of merchandise and a hit song and making a star out of its leading man, Guy Williams.
Perfectly cast, the handsome Williams (a former model) brought a rascally charm to his dual role as the "Spanish Fox" and his Clark Kent-like alter ego, Don Diego de la Vega. With his matinee idol good looks and beaming smile, he is a joy to watch whether he's sword fighting with a bad guy or riding off into the sunset astride his black stallion Tornado. And for the most part that was Williams, as he performed a lot of his own stunts.
Adding to the entertainment value of each episode was the talents of Henry Calvin as the bumbling Sergeant Garcia and Gene Sheldon as Zorro's own "Butler Alfred", the mute Bernardo. The two stage veterans (Calvin in opera, Sheldon in vaudeville) provided the comic relief for the series, and would later team up again as the villain's henchmen in the Disney musical Babes in Toyland.

seems to absorb better than other forms with less stomach upset. but can still cause diarrhea in higher doses for me as I am quite sensitive to magnesium in that way. I feel it may have helped me with controlling my weight too....not entirely sure if this was it but possibly helped with improved insulin sensitivity.

Yes, it is a big pill, like all magnesium supplements are. But this form, magnesium glycinate, gives me no GI side effects. And, when I take it in the evening, I can feel the effects of it when I lay still. A gentle warmth takes over my aching muscles and provides a subtle relaxation from tension. That indicates to me that my body is absorbing it.

What we're reading in this morning's Motoramic Dash about Shelby faking photos, the latest squawking over distracted driving and yet another troubled electric vehicle builder:
Shelby fakes photos of Shelby 1000 lifting off ground [DriveOn/USA Today] This photo above of Shelby American's 1,000-hp custom Mustang supposedly lifting its front tires off the ground ran across several auto news web sites on Tuesday. It took an eagle eye of a newspaper photo editor to notice a few things off about the picture we've highlighted above — and upon further digging, for Shelby to admit the photo had been faked and issue an apology. If you want to see a Mustang on its rear quarters, head to a horse barn.
Tech firms share fault in distracted driving: NTSB [Bloomberg] The National Transportation Safety Board held its first hearing Tuesday on its proposal to ban all cellphone use by drivers in vehicles, and it quickly became an example of good intentions gone awry. Despite lacking proof that ending calls would reduce crashes, the NTSB came out swinging against automaker and tech companies, blaming them for encouraging more tech inside vehicles — ignoring that much of the tech inside vehicles was either brought there or asked for by their owners, and that there's still no way to know how much such devices actually contribute to wrecks.
Azure Dynamics files for bankruptcy, halts output of Transit electric vans [Crain's Detroit Business] A Canadian start-up that had won a contract from Ford to convert Transit delivery vans to electric power sought protection from debtors in Canada this week, laying off most of its staff and shutting down the Transit line. Outside of Tesla, and maybe Fisker, the world of start-up EV builders is getting smaller by the day.
Chevy selects global advertising agency [GM] After months of review, Chevrolet will consolidate the advertising work it had spread among 70 companies worldwide into one new joint venture called Commonwealth. Based in Detroit, the partnership between McCann-Erickson Worldwide and Goodby, Silverstein & Partners will be tasked with getting Chevy better ads while eventually saving $2 billion over five years. No biggie.

. . .a pupil attitude factor, which appears to have a stronger relationship to achievement than do all the "school" factors together, is the extent to which an individual feels that he has some control over his own destiny. James Coleman, 1966
Tuesday, August 23, 2005
Leak This!
The NYT reports:
But it (the lawsuit) goes further, arguing that the federal secretary of education, Margaret Spellings, has aggravated the harm to Connecticut by denying state requests for flexibility in complying with the law, including one to continue the state's alternate-year testing program, which the suit says has helped make Connecticut students among the highest-ranking in the nation.
Those interested in why Spellings and friends at the DOE just don't seem to get it when it comes to the mounting legal challenges and rebellion against NCLB, here's a story that can shine some light on possible motives. Emily Pyle of the Texas Observer wrote a story on May 16, 2005, High-stakes test aren't good for students, teachers, or schools. So who are they good for? Well, they're certainly good for Sandy Kress, old time family friend and high powered lobbyist for test publishers. Where's the accountability?
The good news is an investigation by the DOE's watchdog into the love affair and possible conflict of interest with the Reading First program is the first sign that the hanky panky at DOE is beginning to gain the attention of law enforcement officials.
It's high time to start holding these people accountable for the travesty being perpetuated on the American public. The tragedy of this reckless policy, couched in Orwellian doublespeak, are the valuable educational programs and resources not being funded because the administration continues to reward its cronies at the expense of our nation's children and teachers.
Let's get the story straight.
1 comment:
Perhaps I read your post too rapidly, but I think you said something about "high stakes testing." I know that's a popular phrase in some circles.ReplyDelete
Isn't NCLB about "high stakes instruction?" As I understand the logic of the legislation and regulations (and I have not studied them in detail), the responsibility for students to learn to X minimum standard rests with the teacher and school administrators.
Educators are to find and use ways to raise student test scores through instruction, or school funding may be removed. T
Each teacher is exercise instructional options. Local administrators are to help them use these options. That seems straight forward.
What did I miss?

Personalized Jewelry
In the jewelry world, especially the hip hop jewelry world, personalized jewelry is always in high demand. Personalization is an expression of everyone's unique tastes, preferences and achievements. For hip hop stars, they turn to jewelers who make custom jewelry for them. The main item of choice is something for the neck, usually a pendant. What you'll see with hip hop stars are personalized pendants using their name, an alias, a record label a city or anything else that symbolizes a significant part of their lives. When the custom jewelry item is finished, they can wear it with pride on the national scene. Pendants are always noticeable, and they can be seen by millions of people for those who are famous. Think about 50 cent's custom G-unit spinner medallion. Everyone knows about that pendant. It's a custom made pendant that cost him tens of thousands of dollars. On there is his record label, which he is his pride and joy. Of course he'd rock something like that rather than a pendant that anyone else can buy.
In recent years, a popular item was the personalized dogtags. Dogtags were always popular and jewelers began to make them with diamonds and other gemstones. Just about every half way successful rapper was wearing one that was personalized. It had a name engraved, or a record label embossed onto it. Cheap imitations were popping up left and right at places like Things Remembered or other websites. The retailers would print photos or custom names onto the dog tag. It was neat, however it was very cheap looking and looked nothing like real jewelry. It was essentially an item with ink printed on.
The thing about personalized jewelry, true, good-looking versions are very expensive. This often required more than a printer or a engraving machine, it required a jeweler. A jeweler would have to design a custom mold based on the design you're looking for. Most of the time people would make their name or another word of significance. However, the jeweler would have to create a different mold each time to accommodate the word or name that you want. The labor hours would include the actual design time, the process of creating the mold, and then the actual casting of the pendant. Only after all that does the stone setting come in. Imagine if you wanted it iced out and wanted stones all around it. Even if you got it made in the cheapest metal, silver, and fake diamonds, a decent sized personalized pendant would still cost over $1000 when its all said and done.
Luckily for you, personalized jewelry is now available to everyday hip hop fans at an affordable price. Hip Hop Bling just released custom
personalized pendants
!. These custom name pendants can be made in any name or word. We can deliver them to you fast and you can be rocking a personalized item in just a few days!

How can we get our toddler to eat?
My 15-month-old has stopped eating. He's never been very good at trying new foods, but at least he would eat baby food. Now he won't eat at all; all he wants is his bottle. Our pediatrician said to take it away and let him be hungry, and when he's hungry enough he'll eat. But he cried so much when I tried it, I didn't have the heart to continue. Any suggestions?

My Baby is 21 months old until 20 months he is used to eat all the veggies with rice and fruits but don't know why he has suddenly stopped eating rice, I don't want him to starve so I give him banana, oatmeal and Milk. I tried so many varieties of Rice for him which he would eat before but he is not eating any of the rice items I am worried what should I do to make him eat Rice again?posted 10/24/2013 by a BabyCenter Member
My boy is 15 months old n um facing the very same situation. He used to have baby food but his pedritician advised me to get him to family food. Now hz totally out of food of any kind. He just like to have a good breakfast. After that the whole day um just tryng to let him eat. But he continues to spit on...um really worried:(posted 10/02/2013 by a BabyCenter Member
Oh yes, picky eaters can be so frustrating :( And we are so inundated with information about what our child should be doing and learning at certain ages, what they should be eating to stay healthy etc. etc. that it is easy to start feeling like we aren't being good parents when things don't go as flawlessly as they are supposed to. Just know that this sort of thing happens all the time. And the best advice I got was to just relax a bit and let them have some say and control over what they eat. Of course, always keep trying to offer them new things. Just give them a little bit of what you are making your family for dinner to try. That way they are being included and always being offered new things to try. but keep a running list of the things they love and let them eat that. They will eat when they are hungry. And eventually they will grow out of this phase and be much more open to eating a variety of foods.posted 10/01/2013 by marydick22
My daughter is 19month old and ahey weights 20 pounds. I feel like the worst mother ever she doesn't eat at all and when she does is just like one or two spoons ar she will chew it up and spit it back out. I have cry beg god on my knees and beg god to help me.I don't kno what to do anymore, it hurts me so much to go through this. I have try to force spoons into her mouth while she is creaming. Is coming to a point that she sees a spoon and she begins to cry. Every time people sees her all they talk about is how skinny she is. Sone of my family don't even want to take care of her. I feel so depress I don't kno what to do anymore. And she burps so much that it worries me and some times her belly be super full like is going to bust. All she wants is milk milk milk. I dont kno what to do anymore. I need serious help for me and my baby. Doctor gave me this medicine that will give her appetite but she spills it back out. I'm so worry that her stomach may be clossing up.heeellllppppppp me!!!posted 09/29/2013 by yonairadespradel
Oh Thank goodness I am not the only one freaking out over this. My 14 month still only eats stage 2 foods and gags on anything of texture. He will eat most anything as long as it's smooth. We just tranferred to milk from formula not too long ago and the poor little guy doesn't have any molars yet which is not helping the eating part. The doctor said not to worry, his weight was good and as long as he is getting something and some variety, he wasn't going to starve himself. I am just so ready for the kid to start some self feeding, meal times are such a battle. I am glad I am not alone in my worries! Hang in there everyone!posted 06/10/2008 by NappiKim
i am so relieved now that i know im not the only mum expereincing this. my son is 17 months and would not just eat,and if you try force,he vomits everything. i have been worried sick but now im relieved. thank you all for your comments. i will try what u hv suggsted....pray it works for my baby.posted 08/21/2013 by talcsha
I am facing the same problem, my 14-month old won't eat - he finds eating a waste of time. I would prepare his meals and end up having myself or throwing in the bin ! He would compromise on curd-rice but that started giving him constipation, so that isn't an option for me anymore. I read someone's post on using mylanta - just be aware if this wasn't recommended by a doc - this medicine should not be consumed by individuals before 12yrs of age. It might cause harm later so you may want to handle the current situation differently.posted 08/16/2013 by priyankakhanna82
So I have a 18 month old who is 19 lbs. He eats. He eats good food. I have REALLY been tracking the measurable things he eats for the past 4 days and it appears he is only getting half of what his little body needs. I seriously feel like I AM stuffing food into his mouth sometimes. I do also nurse him 4-6 times a day . If each nursing period gives him 100 cal, that might just be why he's at least staying the same size over a 6 month period. it's a struggle. It feels good to at least vent off some thoughts. We are going to see an endocrinologist and rule out some possible things there.posted 03/17/2013 by tburnette1981
My daughter is now 20 months old and she is pretty big. She weighs now 33 pounds and is tall. She doesn't look super chubby, but enough for people to ask the following: "What does she eat" or "Wow, she must eat alot to be so big". Honestly, she doesn't eat much at all. She doesn't even like to eat sitting down. It is usually an all out crying fit if we try to sit down and eat together. I usually have to set a plate down of food and usually after an hour I catch her picking at it while walking around the kitchen. As for milk, she drinks 8oz three to four times a day. The milk she requests for, if I hand her a bottle thinking she may want it she will protest loudly "NO THANKS". I don't understand why she is so picky, but I do set some rules and I follow some of hers. As for my son he had a similar issue about eathing. He did love to drink his milk though. So I use to put pureed fruit in his bottle, to at least get something other than milk in him. He eats well now and is starting to enjoy different foods. My son is three years old and there are so many stages that come with each month and year. I see it now again with my daughter. I guess every kid has there own way of eating and it is up to us to not give up and just keep trying new methods of finding food interesting or for the most healthy.posted 09/27/2004 by MercyDiaz
i am in tears now as i sit and read this cause yes THank You!!! my 18lb 16month old will eat cereal and milk in her sippys and sometimes a jar of baby food at night and an occasional waffle if shes allowed to play and eat it...but getting her to try new foods just leads us both to tears and i totally agree about it making you feel like a worthless mom...so is it okay that she only eats breaded foods and mcdonalds french fries????? lol...and why does everyone keep making me think shes starving???shes very mature and smarter than most children her age but we just dont understand why shes not gaining weight and docotors?....we cant even take her anymore..they are too judgemental....so thanks for the posts moms! helps to know were not alone!posted 08/26/2009 by irelandjo
Answer this question

The title to Erin Griffith's Pandodaily article on curation speaks more largely than it realizes. Why? Because the scale problem in curation is much the same as the scaling problem in MOOCs. How do you assess what folks know when there are 100,000 of them? In MOOC's that has been answered two ways: roboassessment and peer assessment.
Nothing else scales. But it appears that curators are finding a way with with what amounts to curatorial boards, groups of experts who work their way in, around, and among the participants like Wikipedia angels amongst the trolls. I think we would do well to see how curators thrash through this problem. Maybe we can get some ideas from them.

"Getting Started with Apache Maven" is intended for Java developers. Knowledge of ANT and Maven would be helpful, but is not essential.
Building projects rapidly and incrementally is a critical part of a developer's job. "Getting Started with Apache Maven" will show you how to take advantage of the common elements of project building and implement effective methods to solve frequently encountered problems, as well as facilitating collaborative development among projects.
"Getting Started with Apache Maven" will introduce you to the world of synergized development in the Maven ecosystem. The course logically explains the various concepts of the tool, and shows how to proceed from simple assignments to complex ones.
Maven is not simply a tool to invoke compilers and utilities, but it is also an approach to easily constructing your project by accessing its ever-expanding world of tools and libraries.
You will learn how to pull in dependencies simply by specifying their coordinates, how to customize your lifecycle with plugins, and see how easy it can be to create a project website. You will see how to generate reports on your code that will enable understanding and will let you know when your developers are running into problems. You will understand how to scale up from simple projects to multi-module ones.
This video course walks you through the steps by presenting examples, starting with very basic ones, and growing to more elaborate ones once you have mastered the basics.
Packt video courses are designed to cover the breadth of the topic in short, hands-on, task-based videos. Each course is divided into short manageable sections, so you can watch the whole thing or jump to the bit you need. The focus is on practical instructions and screencasts showing you how to get the job done.
The video course entails a crisp demonstration of the concepts of building projects through Apache Maven backed by practical and illustrative examples.
Russell Gold has been a Java developer since 1996 and is the author of the open-source project, HttpUnit, as well as a handful of smaller open source projects. He is also a committer on the Codehaus Mojo project, where he maintains the idlJ and RMIC plugins.
He has spent the major part of his career looking for better ways to develop software, is a staunch advocate of agile development, and has embraced Maven as a major advance in build philosophy and technology. Russell is currently employed by Oracle.
I would like to express gratitude to my wife Gwen, for her patience as I spent many hours working on this project, as well as to my boss and co-workers who have offered encouragement and feedback.

Package List
1XSainSmart 1.04" I2C IIC Serial 128X32 OLED LCD
What is OLED?
OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) is a self light-emitting technology composed of a thin, multi-layered organic film placed between an anode and cathode. In contrast to LCD technology, OLED does not require a backlight. OLED possesses high application potential for virtually all types of displays and is regarded as the ultimate technology for the next generation of flat-panel displays.
How Does OLED Emit Light?
OLEDs basic structure consists of organic materials positioned between the cathode and the anode, which is composed of electric conductive transparent Indium Tin Oxide (ITO). The organic materials compose a multi-layered thin film, which includes the Hole Transporting Layer (HTL), Emission Layer (EML) and the Electron Transporting Layer (ETL). By applying the appropriate electric voltage, holes and electrons are injected into the EML from the anode and the cathode, respectively. The holes and electrons combine inside the EML to form excitation, after which electroluminescence occurs. The transfer material, emission layer material and choice of electrode are the key factors that determine the quality of OLED components.
Note: Unlike other "Serial Display" which just convert serial input to parallel, Digole's Serial displays and adapters embedded a powerful MCU to process the commands received, display characters, draw graphs and control back light as you want, all commands are simple, high level and easy to remember!
