The ongoing war between Nvidia and AMD for supremacy over the PC gaming landscape has been like the Hatfields and the McCoys of enthusiast computing: long, bitter, and deeply entrenched. Contrary to rumors, AMD hasn't revealed a dual R9 290/290X card yet, but the Radeon HD 7990 is the next best thing, combining two HD 7970 GPUs onto one card. It didn't come out until spring 2013, though, which was long after Nvidia's own dual-GPU behemoth, the GeForce GTX 690, had dug in its heels.
For a brief time yesterday, we noticed that Newegg had the MSI Radeon HD 7990 (R7990-6GD5) dual-GPU graphics card on sale for $550 after a $30 rebate card. The price has since gone back up to $890, but there are still a few deals to be found, and perhaps more on the way.
There are several ways to reconcile why PowerColor named its dual Radeon HD 7970 monstrosity the Devil 13. On the one hand, the card probably got its name from the fact that it's an unholy abomination of GPU horsepower, combining two already-hot-running GPUs into one massive, inferno-producing card that gets as hot as Hades.
TUL Corporation's PowerColor division just unveiled one hell of a graphics card. It's the Devil 13 HD7990, and this fiery card wages war with dual Tahiti XT GPUs, the same as found in AMD's single GPU Radeon HD 7970 videocard. It's the first to launch out of AMD's much anticipated HD 7990 series, and the card looks every bit as beastly as you would expect from a part that takes up three slots.
A Chinese website has posted a naked picture of AMD's upcoming Radeon HD 7990 graphics card. It's a partial snapshot that shows one of the two GPUs AMD crammed onto this pixel pushing monster, which supposedly consists of a pair of Tahiti XT graphics cores, the same as found on AMD's Radeon HD 7970 videocard. If the information is correct, the card will launch in April, after Nvidia's Kepler rolls into town.

Social Change Colloquium
Each fall, the Department of Special Collections and University Archives sponsors a colloquium focusing on a topic in social change. Like SCUA's collections, these colloquia cover a broad terrain, touching on a variety of issues in social justice, equality, and democracy.
Colloquia are free and open to the public.
November 3, 2014, from 4:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m., Lower Level, W.E.B. Du Bois Library
"A Long and Winding Road: The legacy of the back-to-the-land communes of the 1960s," will explore the nearly forty year history of some of the region's best known communes: Montague Farm and Wendell Farms nearby in Massachusetts, and Packer Corners and Tree Frog Farms in neighboring southern Vermont. All were partners in the back-to-the-land movement of the late 1960s and early 1970s; all have survived into the current era. The colloquium's four speakers, who have each spent much of the intervening years on or near one of the four farms, represent each of these idealistic enterprises, as well as offering their own specific views. What have they learned from their long years in service to their ideals? Was the altruism of the counterculture era borne out in the experiences they faced later? Would they recommend the route of alternative life to the youth and radicals of today?
The sources of inspiration that led to the creation of these communities and the evidence of their later influence are documented by SCUA. The Famous Long Ago archive was formed to collect, preserve, and make available materials relating to the communes at Montague Farm, Packer Corners, Johnson Pasture, Wendell Farm, and Tree Frog Farm. Collections range from from the papers of writers Steve Diamond, Raymond Mungo, and Jonathan Maslow to those of anti-war activists Randy Kehler and Betsy Corner; from the records of the Liberation News Service, the organization that spawned the farms, to the Alternative Energy Coalition, and Musicians United for Safe Energy, later enterprises of the region's communal farmer-activists. It also includes the photographic collections of farm parent Roy Finestone, photojournalist Lionel Delevingne, and former head of a neighboring Montague ashram, Stephen Josephs.

Verandah Porche, writer, teacher: Packer Corners Farm, Monteverdi Artists Collaborative
John Scagliotti, filmmaker, LGBT activist: Tree Frog Farm, Kopkind Colony
Susan Mareneck, artist, teacher, social worker: Early resident and longtime neighbor of Montague Farm, Montague Catholic Social Ministries
Timothy Miller, University of Kansas, scholar of intentional communities, author of The Hippies and American Values (1991), The Quest for Utopia in Twentieth-Century America (1998), The Sixties Communes: Hippies and Beyond (1999)
Verandah Porche, a forty-year resident of Packer Corners Farm (known to the reading public, through the works of Ray Mungo and others, as Total Loss Farm) works as a poet-in-residence, performer, and writing partner. Based in rural Vermont since 1968, she has published three volumes of poetry – Sudden Eden (Verdant Books), The Body's Symmetry (Harper and Row) and Glancing Off (See Through Books) – and has pursued an alternative literary career, creating collaborative writing projects in nontraditional settings: literacy and crisis centers, hospitals, factories, nursing homes, senior centers, a 200 year-old Vermont tavern, and an urban working class neighborhood. Broad Brook Anthology, a play for voices, honors the lives of elders in her home town of Guilford, Vermont. Listening Out Loud documents her residency with Real Art Ways in Hartford, Connecticut. Come Over is a CD of songs written with her neighbor Patty Carpenter, performed by the Dysfunctional Family Jazz band. She has read her work on NPR stations, in the Vermont State House, and at the Guggenheim Museum. In 1998 the Vermont Arts Council presented her with its Award of Merit, and Marlboro College, in 2012, an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters.
Susan Mareneck arrived in the Pioneer Valley in the mid 1960s, and spent her college years engaged in civil rights and anti-war activities, majoring Art and Political Science. After experiencing Montague Farm for several months in its early days, she settled into an unrenovated 18th century farmhouse in nearby Leverett, a building without heat or running water. Improving it slowly but concertedly over the years, she returned regularly to the house for vacations and summers, and has remained a neighbor of Montague Farm and a member of its extended family ever since. Decamping after several years for a graduate degree in art, and finally a move to New York, she spent 30 years making art and teaching it at the Spence School and the Convent of the Sacred Heart, on New York's upper east side, before returning to western Massachusetts in 2009 to work full time with families in Turners Falls as Executive Director at Montague Catholic Social Ministries. Living three blocks from Ground Zero, Susan saw her world change forever on 9/11. Her turn from education to social work reflects her long interest in non-profits and the role of faith in social change. Her work in that area has included projects directed toward employment, racism, educational policy, and prisons. She has exhibited, lectured, and published in the visual arts and historic preservation, and remains active in organizing the local history of her town, North Leverett, Mass.
John Scagliotti is an Emmy Award-winning American film director, producer, and radio broadcaster. He has received honors for his work on documentaries about LGBT issues including Before Stonewall and After Stonewall. During the 1970s, Scagliotti was the News and Public Affairs Director of the pioneering radio station WBCN-FM in Boston. For his work in radio, he was awarded two Major Armstrong Awards. In the early 1980s, he attended New York University Film School and went on to create In the Life for PBS, the first gay and lesbian national television series in the United States. The Scagliotti-produced documentary film Before Stonewall (1985) won the Audience Award at L.A. Outfest and two Emmies. Scagliotti directed a companion piece, After Stonewall, which won a Golden Eagle and the Audience Award at the Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Film Festival. Scagliotti is openly gay. His partner for 24 years was the late, highly regarded journalist Andrew Kopkind. Together they produced the radio show The Lavender Hour. Scagliotti is a longtime resident of the Kopkind Colony, an activist community housed at Tree Frog Farm, a close neighbor to Packer Corners Farm in Guilford, Vermont. The Kopkind Colony holds an educational summer residency program for nonpartisan, independent journalists and community organizers. In addition, the Colony fosters public education through publication of its lectures and the hosting of open forums on contemporary issues held at Tree Frog Farm and in other educational centers around the country.
Daniel Keller, a founder of Wendell Farm, in Wendell Massachusetts, has lived there, keeping it a working organic farm, since its inception in 1969. In collaboration with Charles Light, a former communard of the Johnson Pasture and Montague Farm, Keller's Green Mountain Post Films, with offices in nearby Turners Falls, has produced and distributed award-winning films for more than twenty-five years. GMP's first documentary Lovejoy's Nuclear War, released in 1975, about Montague Farm activist Sam Lovejoy, was one of the first films to question the nuclear energy policy of the United States. Since then GMP Films has continued to produce movies that explore social issues, Its films have been used as educational and organizational tools for activists working on peace, veteran, nuclear, environmental, and other related issues. GMP films include: The Last Resort (1978), and Save the Planet (1979), both on nuclear issues; The Secret Agent (1983), on Agent Orange; and Unknown Secrets (1990), on the reaction of artists and writers to the arrest, trial, and execution of accused spies Julius and Ethel Rosenberg. For Vietnam Experience Keller and Light teamed up with musician Country Joe McDonald to bring viewers closer to the reality of the Vietnam War. Cannabis Rising is an early investigation into the issues surrounding marijuana today so much in the news.
Timothy Miller is a longtime student of communal living, professor of religious studies at the University of Kansas, and author of The Hippies and American Values (1991), The Quest for Utopia in Twentieth-Century America (1998), The Sixties Communes: Hippies and Beyond (1999). His course offerings include a history of intentional communities in America; American religious history; and an overview of new and alternative religious movements in the United States. Miller's major research focus is the history of intentional communities in America, especially in the twentieth century. For his work in this area, Professor Miller has been recognized by the Communal Studies Association as a distinguished scholar. Additional areas of research interest include American religious history, new and alternative religious movements in the United States, and religion in Kansas. Professor Miller also coordinates the Religion in Kansas Oral History Project. His most recent publications include The Encyclopedic Guide to American Intentional Communities (Richard Couper Press), Spiritual and Visionary Communities: Out to Save the World (Ashgate Publishing), as well as the second edition of The Hippies and American Values (University of Tennessee Press), and the second edition of Following In His Steps: A Biography of Charles M. Sheldon (University of Tennessee Press). Through Miller's work on American communes, he has long been familiar with the extended farm family at the center of the current symposium. In a recent book review, taking in the larger field in which he is involved, he wrote, "…it can be safely said that Montague Farm has the best published record of any of the communes."

Unzicker, Rae
Rae Unzicker Papers, 1979-1997.
Call no.: MS 818
Rae Unzicker's exposure to the psychiatric system began at a young age. Growing up in an abusive home, her parents sent her to psychiatrists off and on for years before she was involuntarily committed. While there, she was quickly introduced to the chaotic and damaging atmosphere of a psychiatric institution, exposing her to mandatory drugs, seclusion rooms, forced feeding, and work "therapy" that required her to wash dishes six hours a day. Once she was release, Unzicker's road to recovery was long, but after several suicide attempts and stays at other treatment facilities, she ultimately counted herself–along with her friend Judi Chamberlin, an early leader in the movement–a psychiatric survivor. Like Chamberlin, Unzicker embraced her role as an advocate of patient's rights and for the radical transformation of the mental-health system. In 1995, President Clinton appointed her to the National Council on Disability; two years later she was elected president of the National Association for Rights Protection and Advocacy (NARPA). Unzicker was widely known for her public appearances, conferences and speeches, and her writings, including numerous articles and contributions to the book Beyond Bedlam: Contemporary Women Psychiatric Survivors Speak Out. A survivor of cancer of the jaw and breast, Rae Unzicker died at her home in Sioux Falls, South Dakota on March 22, 2001 at the age of 52.
Although a small collection, Rae Unzicker's papers document her activities as a leading advocate for the rights of mental health patients, including transcripts of speeches and videotaped appearances, correspondence and feedback related to workshops and conferences, press kits, and newspaper clippings. The most important materials, however, are her writings. It is through her poems and her full-length memoir, You Never Gave Me M & M's, that Unzicker's story and voice are preserved.

Kleckner, Susan
Susan Kleckner Papers, ca.1970-2010.
Call no.: MS 725
A feminist, filmmaker, photographer, performance artist, writer, and New Yorker, Susan Kleckner helped to define the Feminist Art Movement. Born in 1941, Kleckner was instrumental in uniting Women Artists in Revolution (WAR) with Feminists in the Arts in 1969, and in 1970 she became a founder of the Women's Interart Center, which still fosters women artists in the performing, visual, and media arts. A talented and prolific visual artist, she produced several important video documentaries during her career, beginning with Three Lives (made in collaboration with Kate Millet in 1970), which is considered the first all-women produced feature documentary. Her work often reflected a feminist commitment to the cause of peace: she participated in and photographed the Greenham Common Women's Peace Camp in England during the mid-1980s and in 1987, she curated a major year-long installation on Broadway called WindowPeace. A brilliant teacher, Kleckner was the first woman to teach photography at the Pratt Institute and she worked at the International Center for Photography in New York from 1982 until her death in July 2010.
A wide ranging and highly diverse collection, the Kleckner Papers document a life in art and activism. The diaries, letters, notes, and essays in the collection are augmented by hundreds of photographic prints and artwork in a variety of media.

If Tiger puts into practice a principle from my newest book (The Kind of Man Every Man Should Be) and pursues reconciliation, forgiveness, and healthy life choices from this point on--all while agreeing to absolute accountability--he may very well lose his wife and children anyway. Yet at the very least, by making such choices, and by adopting a different path than the one that took him down the road of danger, Tiger can give to his children and possibly even to a former wife a degree of health and sanity. It will not replace what betrayal has taken from them, but his desire to reconcile will produce healthy results.
President Obama, from all appearances, will refuse to admit that his statist view of the world has any flaws in it whatsoever. He will dig in. He will give more speeches. He will possibly even accept more absurd awards on the world stage, even while insulting the host nation who is silly enough to honor him with such acclaim. President Obama refuses to see, what everyone else easily does, that his actions are damaging the future of millions of people, but his stubborn refusal to pivot may damage generations of descendants of those people. The federal spending (and borrowing limits) are breaking records under Obama even with one of his wars drawing down. Yet he wishes to punitively hurt energy companies, prevent the discovery of new sources, and forcibly change behavior of millions of people while taxing them record rates--over an issue that has been cited as non-existent by those who had originally put the ideas forward. Recently those experts even admitted so in e-mails to each other.
Tiger's only chance at redeeming his psyche, his life, and somewhere far down the road his game, is to ultimately choose to be a different person. He must volitionally make better choices, better friends, and cling to the real love of one woman. I personally believe that those tasks are made easier if he also couples those choices with a genuine belief, faith, and trust in God.
President Obama's chances at redemption are actually easier, all he must do is admit the truth, and make a handful of different choices about policy. If he wished to redeem his party's chances of avoiding serious losses in 2010 he would specifically choose to drop the public option in health care, insure the prevention of any federal monies used for abortion, scrap "Cap & Trade", reject the current 2 trillion dollar budget that is headed for his desk, and extend federal tax reductions for small businesses.
None of that would make him a conservative, or even a Republican, but it would demonstrate a genuine humility that took the lives of those he serves seriously.
And while his numbers are falling, and he has slid into a tie with current Republican front-runner Gov. Mike Huckabee, he has not yet suffered enough--nor sensed the suffering of the American people enough (just yet)--for him to take the serious steps that Tiger Woods is being forced to do.
Because of this, "We the People" feel very much like the wife who has been cheated on and even abused by neglect, dishonesty, lies, and trickery.
Thus the only question left to answer is, "Whose love and affection is the nation's President truly pursuing?"

I like the concept, but this one looks a bit flat. Ive seen your work, Dosent pop as much as some of them. But i really like the color! Awesome JOb!
maybe its not the right angle?
And thats a very important possibility. I have a hunch that these have to be looked at just right or they won't look right.

J-Hoppers Hiroshima GuesthouseHiroshima, Japan
This was one of the nicest hostels I've stayed at. The staff is really friendly and everything you need is in the hostel or nearby. They were always willing to point you in the right direction or give advice about things to do. The facilities were clean and the building itself well-cared for (I've stayed in hostels in renovated old buildings that show their ware). The only complaint I can make is that there was only 1 shower per floor, so I sometimes had to wait. Overall, great hostel :D
AS House (Asakusa Smile)Tokyo, Japan
This is my 5th or 6th stay in a Khaosan hostel, and the 3rd one I've tried in Tokyo. This was my least favorite of all of them. The bathrooms were clean, but gave no place to change or keep your clothes while you showered, and also supplied no shampoo or soap like the neighboring Annex. Many of the facilities, including bathrooms, plugs, and toilets, need an upgrade. But that said, the bar downstairs was very friendly to anyone who wanted to meet people, especially Japanese, and practice speakin
Khaosan Tokyo NinjaTokyo, Japan
It was overall a very nice hostel, but there were some small issues. Unfortunately, Asakusabashi is not the best location, and it wasn't a particularly roomy hostel. But the beds were nice and the staff was really really friendly :)
Fukuoka Backpackers HostelFukuoka City, Japan
I have stayed at other Khaosan before that were nicer than this one. The bathroom situation was my problem, I think. I stayed on the 3rd floor, which housed something like 12 girls, but there was only one bath and shower for ALL of them; many girls will know that is a bit of a time and convenience issue. Essentially they only had that one shower for all the girls staying in the hostel (I didn't stay in a private room, so I cannot speak for that), while boys had showers on 1st and 2nd floors.

Potty training and bowel movements
Thanks for your help!
Comments (6)
Don't force it. She'll do her poop on potty when ready.
Last thing you need is to withhold and get constipated.
We have been potty training for a few 3 months and my DS has only had a bowel movement twice on the potty. It's either been in his diaper during naptime/bedtime or it has been in his undies. I have found he will go when he is ready. Potty training is a long process.
I agree with sarski101. Watch for that poop face. Sometimes if you say "you're pooping? let's go poo poo on the potty!" then they will say "no... I don't like to" (this happened to me today) then I will basically just pick him up and take him to the potty chair. Even if he's in the middle of it already. Then he sits down, does it and is finished and i CELEBRATE! Say yay! yay! yay! You did it! You're so big! I am so proud of you! After this happens a few times they will start to realize pooping on the potty isnt too scary... it is fun because Mommy loves it and I get lots of praise. Hope this helps.

iHerb Customer Reviews
Carrot & Pomegranate hand cream's texture is feels a bit watery compared to Peppermint & Aloe hand cream, but its clearly more healing and makes hands REALLY soft. It absorbs quite quickly, but the soft and moisturized feeling stays long. It would be maybe the best hand cream I've used, but unfortunately the scent isn't my favourite. Luckily it fades, but I'll test other hand creams before ordering this again... The scent isnt that bad, but somehow it just disturbs me.
I have very dry skin un hand.Yes, smell a bit stronger as i expected, but my hands are love it, just melt, and I should career this big tube to everywhere in my small lady purse! This is funny!

It was super random how we met (in an artstore) and we remembered each other from facebook. I asked her if she want to come by for a portrait and here we go! I love randomness sometimes.

Would be awesome if you recorded yourself working in Photoshop, and do a time lapse or something. I mean wow, your portraits have been stunning, especially in 3 hours.
This is wonderful! It just seems very.. still.. Like she seems like a statue. Just my opinion, but still lovely! xD
Awesome. I have CS5, but I had no idea you could do this great work using it.!!
Good God, this is good. What resolution do you usually work with? I just love the crispness of the highlights and hair!

Oh goodness, that voice tidbit made this episode so much better!
"And she laughed in my face!"
I love princess cookie

Yeah, same Though PB is getting more and more unlikable! Whats the deal with that!
I'm pretty sure she didn't actually mean to laugh at his dream... She probably just thought that he meant "prince" and that his saying "princess" instead wa sone of those cute lil grammar mistakes you make when ur little and just getting yer feet wet with speech. :/
It was definitely a "That's so cute" laugh, because kids say the darndest things. He completely overreacted/misinterprated. Not that it wasn't funny.
Yes she is. I guess bc Finn may start liking other princesses like the fire princess. So this may be the writing staff's attempt to end any FinnXPB stuff
Loved the episode.
Love this.

I wuz just watchin this episode earlier! XD

Made on the Web, designed by us
With a new survey showing that the majority of people on the Web are willing to co-create, crowdsourcing is looking like a repeatable, reliable way to outsource work and partner with online communities to create concrete results. Crowdsourcing has become increasingly attractive to small businesses as well as enterprises. Yet this category remains stubbornly in the experimentation phase even as some firms start racking up significant wins. Here are the pros and cons of this approach as well as how companies get started in what is shaping up to be one of the most significant new approaches to global business in this century.

Twitter announced some tweaks last night to its Search and Discover sections for its iPhone and Android apps. The changes include better integration of Search and Discover results, which brings everything together in one neat stream. It has done the same in the Connection tab like you already see on the BlackBerry. This will now show you mentions, retweets and new follows all in one place. Here's the detail:
Today weŌĆÖre updating the Android and iOS apps, as well as mobile.twitter.com. This release provides a single stream of content in each tab, so you can better find whatŌĆÖs most important to you when youŌĆÖre on the go.
Discover: Now all the content in Discover ŌĆö Tweets, Activity, Trends and suggestions of accounts to follow ŌĆö appears in a single stream, on both iPhone and Android. You can also dive into Activity and Trends from new previews at the top of the Discover tab.
Search: Search results now surface the most relevant mix of Tweets, photos, and accounts, all in one stream (similar to the stream in Discover). WeŌĆÖve also added a new search button to Twitter for iPhone, letting you search from anywhere within the app. (This button was already available in the Android and iPad apps.) Look for the magnifying glass icon next to the button you use to compose a Tweet.
Connect: To provide a simpler experience in the Connect tab, the default view is now Interactions, which shows you new followers, retweets and mentions. If you prefer to view only your mentions in Connect, you can adjust the default in settings ŌĆō find the ŌĆ£Connect tabŌĆØ option and select ŌĆ£Mentions onlyŌĆØ.
Links: Click a URL in a Tweet to go directly to that website from any timeline and get to content highlighted on Twitter faster. (Previously, when you tapped any part of a Tweet, it would first expand and then a second click was required to get to the website.)
As always, you can learn more about whatŌĆÖs new in our mobile apps from the App Store or Google Play.

reliable toothbrush
buying this for years
Posted by 4910802500024012430 on Feb 01, 2014
I tried a few kinds of toddler toothbrushes and it's the best so far. The color is pretty, too. My son is using Radius products for years. A quite satisfying product, except it gets worn faster than I first expected.
Posted by Reviewer1395046 on Aug 21, 2014
my kids love it. The form is suitable for small hands. The only problem is that it doesn't keep it's shape for long so you have to replace it quite often.

Having already loved the original Burt's Bees lip balm i decided to try the tinted collection and see what all the hype was about. I bought the color 'Tiger Lily' which is a nude color that i can wear day and night and makes my lips appear fuller. It moisturizes and conditions my chapped lips while also providing an even coverage. So happy to have bought this!
Age: 36-43
Skin: Sensitive, Fair, Cool
Hair: Blond, Wavy, Fine
Eyes: Blue
I tried a few of the tinted lip balms out when they were first released and I liked the colors and the great combo of shine/matte and the near-perfect amount of tint. In the past year I've gone searching for better and different alternatives and decided to try as many different types and brands of chubby lip colors as I could find.
Surprisingly, none of the chubby lipsticks are really as easy, inexpensive and well-pigmented (without a blinding amount of shine after the necessary amount of coverage) as the Burt's Bees lip balms!
The pros of this product are the new colors like Sweet Violet and the still-great colors like Rose and Red Dahlia; somehow they all work with my super-fair skin and are just simply more attractive on than similarly-shaded lipsticks and chubby sticks. I like the simple cardboard packaging and the chapstick-style tubes. They offer a tasteless, odorless moisturizer for the lips that is simple to reapply without a mirror. They do need to be reapplied fairly often but some of the color stays behind after the moisture is gone but fades easily without any cleaners.
One con is in Burt's Bees' refusal to put a strip or dot of color on the plastic shell; it's a pain to have to read the tiny letters against the dark brown plastic, and from a few inches away it's impossible to tell what color/s you're grabbing.
The only other cons are just that this product is so almost-perfect and could easily get there, but I'm not sure if the company plans to give them a little more pigment (thus making them an obvious and real competitor for any truly popular stains and lip colors out there right now) and perhaps change the packaging to something a little more cosmetic-y.
I've tried the newer Burt's Bees lip products and they all have so much shine, so I'm really hoping they keep this one around and don't blend it into so many of their previous and newer lip shines.
I highly recommend giving these a try with and without makeup; they are great either way and the colors are unique. They are truly working with some gorgeous and extremely natural looking colors that no other company is using. They are relatively inexpensive (though small), and you just really can't go wrong--though I'm not a huge fan of the super-light/neutral shades simply because it's just like putting a clear glossy chap stick on, more or less. But anything from Pink Blossom on is just lovely and suited to any look.
After "kissing" a lot of well-reviewed and expensive lip-product "frogs," the tinted lip balm is definitely the unsung "prince"!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brown, Other, Other
Eyes: Green
Within 5-10 minutes, the color (I got hibiscus) is faded and my lips feel slightly drier than they were before applying this (though they look and feel lovely when I do put it on). After about an hour, my lips are so dry they flake up a bit--I constantly have to fix my lips by peeling off the dried skin or they look awful. Ugh. the pomegranate lip balm is def. better.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Other, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Red, Other, Other
Eyes: Blue
We won't talk about how many of these I own. The rose shade was on clearance at target and I thought they were discontinuing it so I stocked up. Totally worth it. I like them better than their clear lip balms, plus the colors look great. They are one of the few lip balms I own that consistently make my lips feel better when I use them. They glide on sooo smoothly. I love them. They're a little pricey, but compared to a drugstore lipstick they're really quite affordable, considering you can kill 2 birds with one stone and just use this instead of lipstick and Chapstick. Plus compared to fresh sugar lip treatment theyre a total steal. I prefer the texture of these, its less waxy, and theres more color pigment. the cardboard tube they come in is stupid, but so are boxes and blister packs. At least the weird little cardboard tube is recyclable. Overall an excellent product.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Dry, Fair-Medium, Warm
Hair: Red, Wavy, Coarse
Eyes: Green
I have these in 3 colours: Rose, Hibiscus and Tiger Lily. The Rose is by far my favorite, it is a true MLBB. Hibiscus I bought when the Rose one was sold out but is just a tad too light for me, I only use this in winter. The Tiger Lily one is a nice warm orangey-brown-pink, wearable the whole year. Texture is lovely and soft, my lips are nice and moisturized. Only con is that they don't contain any SPF which I think is a must these days.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Oily, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
i think this is an awesome product! it moisturizes while giving a hint of color. people who expect this to have the pigmentation similar to the lip shimmers would be disappointed, but the lip balm aspect of this product is amazing! if people want more color, then definitely go for the lip shimmers. but if people are fine with a hint of color, this will deliver. first of, the formula is so smooth. if burt's bees had a colorless balm in this formula, i would definitely be buying. second, it moisturizes my lips with no waxy texture. third, i love the scent which i couldn't describe. i am a huge fan of BB lip products in general- i love the lip balms and lip shimmers- and this made me love BB lip products even more. the only thing that held me back for a while in purchasing is the price. it is kinda expensive. hopefully, they would come out with special offers.
Age: 44-55
Skin: Normal, Fair, Neutral
Hair: Brown, Other, Medium
Eyes: Green
Not only does this lip balm have NO staying power, after a week or so of daily use it actually made my lips dry and painful, which they have never been before. Guess it's back to the Bonne Bell Lipsmackers
Age: 30-35
Skin: Normal, Olive, Warm
Hair: Black, Straight, Medium
Eyes: Brown
Gosh, I'm conflicted. I like this product very much, but it's basically 5x the price of my old standby. What to do?
I always used to stock up on the 3-pack of ChapStick's Lip Moisturizer (the dark blue tube with the white cap) at Target ... I think it was $3-4 for the pack?
(BTW: ingredients for ChapStick's Lip Moisturizer are, as far as I can tell:
Octinoxate 7.5%; Oxybenzone (sunscreen) 3.5%; White petrolatum 40.7%; inactive ingredients: aloe barbadensis leaf extract, carnauba wax, cetyl alcohol, fragrance, isocetyl stearate, isopropyl lanolate, isopropyl myristate, lanolin, methylparaben, mineral oil, paraffin, propylparaben, tocopheryl linoleate/oleate, vitamin E, white wax)
Then I got the Burt's Bees "Tinted Lip Balm Duo", $10 for 2 tubes. That *is* 5x more expensive. Maybe I can square it with my conscience by giving something else up ...
I played around with Rose, Red Dahlia, Hibiscus, and Pink Blossom; ultimately, Rose looked the best, I thought. I love the hint of color; it enhances my lip color in that great "like my lips but better" way.
I'm also a fan of the way my lips feel after applying this product. Whereas the good ol' ChapStick made my lips feel slick- as if the petroleum jelly was sitting on the surface without penetrating- the Burt's Bees oils do seem to sink into my actual skin and leave my lips softer.
However: during the past 15 minutes, I applied the balm, thought that I was pretty happy with the product, decided to write this review, started writing this review, handled a quick work task, came back to the review, and realized that my lips were totally dry. That brief staying power kind of blows. When I'm essentially paying $1 for a tube (ChapStick), I don't care ... but it stings a bit more with the higher-priced Burt's Bees.
Quite a quandary. I am going to sit here and smell the Burt's Bees tube (can't identify the fragrance, but I do like it) and ponder this deep problem.
3-star rating due to short staying power;
3-star price rating (oh come ON, Burt, you know this is edging towards over-priced-ness);
1-star packaging rating for extra and unnecessarily (and misleadingly) large cardboard tube used to house an absolutely standard-sized 0.15oz tube.
Age: 36-43
Skin: Normal, Tan, Warm
Hair: Brown, Curly, Medium
Eyes: Black
The so called tint in the balm is non existent! I bought red dahlia since it's supposed to be the darkest tint & I have dark lips. I honestly cannot tell ANY color at all!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Acne-prone, Olive, Warm
Hair: Blond, Wavy, Medium
Eyes: Blue
Hands down the most moisturizing lip product I have ever used. Way better than the non-pigmented lip balms! They feel buttery and rich, last a loooong time, and look juicy!
*Honeysuckle- Nude, amazing! (slight orange undertone and lighter than caramel daisey)
*Tiger Lily- Secod best!! peach nude
*Hibiscus- medium orange pink
*Pink Blossom- BEST! pretty candy pink, smells like bubblegum
*Rose- sheer light red, smells like red licorice
*Red Dahlia- sheer dark red
New collection: (no smell, and more sheer)
*Petunia- light pink, almost nude (unfortunatly), no smell. I really thought this was going to be a pretty pink, but it too light and washes out my face!!
*Caramel Daisey- true medium brown, no undertone like honeysuckle
*Sweet Violet- a bright medium purpelish pink
My favorite are pink blossom, honey suckle, and tiger lily. Red dahlia would look good on anyone, hibiscus would look good on medium skin tones, and rose I just dont like on my light skin tone, too bright of red.
Just bought caramel daisey and sweet violet, I love them! They both look amazing on my skin tone and probably any other!!

The Fox Theatre is a historic Atlanta attraction and theatre at 660 Peachtree Street NE near the North Avenue MARTA station. The venue was built in the late 1920s as a Yaarab Temple Shrine Mosque and hosts musicals, shows, concerts and the Coca-Cola Summer Film Festival. Building tours are also available.
Take a red or gold line train to the North Avenue MARTA station and walk to the north end of the platform, following the signs "To Fox Theatre". Walk through the AT&T building after exiting the fare gate to reach an exterior exit to 3rd Street. Turn right on 3rd and right again on Peachtree Street at the stoplight.
If you accidentally stumble out of the station on North Avenue, turn left on North Avenue and left again on Peachtree Street to get to the Fox. Walking distance is about the same, but you will stay underground longer by going via the AT&T building, which is nice if it is raining, cold or late at night when spending less time on the street is a better option.

Start to Finish by EarleywineWatch
©2012-2016 Earleywine
A commissioned drawing of one rancher's stages of training bits. 15 x 23 conte' crayon on bark paper. I just finished it - will try to get a better photo in a few days (after I stack books on it to press it flat, haha)
I love how you blended the chests and necks together!
Was the 3rd stage bit modeled after a Garcia bit? I believe that's what it is called, we have one with very similar shanks, so I'm curious
This looks brilliant though, excellent job
Could be - I am not sure what it is called. It is kind of a combination bit and hackamore
Got it, it sorta looks like a spade bit but usually those are finished horse bridles only, so I don't think it is. This looks great though
Beautiful drawing!
Wow, what wonderful work!
they will be very happy with this ,its lovley bark papers quit tricky to use but i love the look of it
That is... wow, amazing. So brilliant. Is the little smiley your mark?
The smiley on the horses cheeks is the brand of the rancher that I did the drawing for. And Thank you
I love the look to it! Very nice work!
I knew this was yours the minute I saw it! Wonderful work my dear
Thank you Kevin . When this weekend is over with, I will try to get a better photo posted
very nice settings!
Neat all in a row, love it
Thank you . I am going to try to get a better photo of it next week when things settle down a bit
Wow! These are so gorgeous, absolutely beautiful work! Every detail from the mane to those itty bitty little veins... my mind is blown!
lovely.. love the atmosphere..
love it!
awesome good work you have did
Truly stunning work! I really like how you've got even the smallest of details in there like the bit of hair inside their ears. Also I like how you varied the colors for each horse so that they don't appear to be just one horse drawn over again.
Very nice! Wonderful job!
Wow, it looks amazing! Beautiful horses and wonderful details

Yes folks I'm the first to admit that my grammar sucks and without my gorgoeus main squeeze, who is not only hot but educated, the scary thoughts in my head and the anger in my heart would never make it to the page in any legible form. However, the title is intended. In the childrens classic Dr. Dolittle had the gift of talking to the animals and they to him. We the disabled are lucky on any day ending in y to gain the presence of a doctor who sees us as anything other than a lab experiment to be pittied, forget about one who can talk our language and hear our cries. There are a few exceptions..my childhood neurologist James Manson and the wonderful GP of my youth the ever amazing B.J. Cormie.
The problem is the great doctors of yesteryear committed a terrible offence for which we will suffer the rest of our lives. They cared! They were professional and they listened. Once when I was 12 in a ward at the Adelaide Childrens Hospital the short but powerful Dr Manson swept in with a gaggle of interns and asked them if you're in a room with a patient who has sufferred and survived their entire life to this point, who is the expert in that room? Murmurs filled the room and he curtly silenced them with "they are you mumbling cerebral dwarfs. They are. If you are ever to creep more than 3 inches from my learned coattails it will be because you realize that the greatest text book on any illness is the patient in front of you."
Today when I am in a doctors room I'm talked about, talked over and around, but very little, if ever actually to. I'm treated more like their poor disabled pet than a human being that they swore an oath to help. Speaking of which, can someone let me know when the hypocratic oath became the hip pocket oath and the first rule changed from "first do no harm" to "first do nothing without proof of payment?"
When this writer arrived back from New York to her native Australia the first thing she who must be obeyed did was arrange a GP who then made a Neuro appointment for a overnight EEG. The doctor stuffed up the booking after 4 months of abuse, sharp tongued secretaries and being treated like the village idiot the doctor was finally shown the error of his ways. Did he apologise? Did he immediately arrange the correct test? Hell no! He spat the dummy & cancelled all treatment and once again I'm on a line so long you'd think it was being sniffed through a hundred dollar bill.
Here's the problem doc, appointments used to be about us now they're about your mortgages. They used to be as long as needed, now they're about as long as it takes to sign the medicare slip for your payment. We used to get blood pressure and temperature taken now its just our money. If the government is whining about the ever growing bill to care for Australia's disabled perhaps spend a little time on the ever growing membership of medicos to golf clubs and send them back to work. Maybe then some of us, in a millenium yet to come on a day not ending in y, might stand a chance of recovery but until that day I'm off to get a dozen scripts filled so the drug rep can send my docotor to Fiji with the profits.
We're humans, we're your patients, the car in the driveway and the house on the hill wouldn't be there without us. Start thinking of us as people who need you rather than the funds for the second story and the money for your retirement.
Respect our Existence or Expect our Resistence!

I have been forced to spend over 120 days in bed with no therapies at a rehab centre while the OT "emails and contacts the entire world" about a program that is specifically designed for training a blind person with a guide/service dog who is also a quadriplegic to use a power wheelchair. She doesn't care that I have been safely working with guide/service dogs while using wheelchairs for the past 7 yrs, have 11 yrs of experience with both training and working with guide/service dogs and have an entire lifetime of experience (29 yrs) of being blind.
Instead of using the "expertise" she has at her disposal right in the room (ME) she is looking in all the wrong areas outside while I am forced to just lay here and not have any say in what happens in my life. Because she can't find the "expertise" she is looking for I don't get the equipment I need to be independent again (I am here for muscle spasms that are not being treated) and the discharge plan involves 29 hrs a day of home care (4 extra hrs for an extra person) so someone will constantly be with me because she will not allow me to have the wheelchair I need to get around on my own like I have been doing since my spinal cord injury.
When will the medical profession learn that their patients know their bodies best and are the experts concerning what they are capable of?!

Toboe redesign by MezameroWatch
©2011-2016 Mezamero
OC - Toboe
redesigned him a bit
redesigned him a bit
i love his eyes! obviously, they match his scarf xD and i really like your story too! the idea of experiment people... it's really something else!
He's very cute!
jesus.. its so cool, colors and line.. jezz
I love the shoes/boots. Awesome scarf!
I like how his hair frame his face and the simplicity of his clothing is nice too, it's a nice touch.
His badass level just got crancked up.He's now 20% cooler.*shot*
Wow, this is seriously so awesome, I love everything in this His pose and expression is so nice, especially his eyes, and I really love the clothes and the colors C:
Cool! Love the green scarf, it looks so comfy
I love him ! .. he looks cute >w<
Niceee (:
Wow the face looks really real :0
I love his colours... it all fits so good together.
and it's nice to see him a little bit stronger than in your last pictures. But he still looks like he needs some hugs ^^ *jump forward to hug him*
and it's nice to see him a little bit stronger than in your last pictures. But he still looks like he needs some hugs ^^ *jump forward to hug him*
Ohoo what alovely design I love it. I quite like his pose too
the hair looks so soft and whispy in contrast to the bright eyes and scarf. he looks amazing.
ну мой взгляд сразу падает на кеды)))))
Your character designs are really interesting. I get the sense they have a sort of anime/manga inspiration to them but they have something unique about them; something different that I dont normally see in other manga/anime. They look interesting enough to have their own manga/anime. I would definitely read/watch a manga/anime that had these characters because of the fact they all have a different kind of appeal to them. All your characters really seem unique from one another like each one could really have their own interesting backstory. Sorry if all that seemed random, your artwork just really struck a chord with me when I came across it. Kudos to you
I like how the neutral colours really make the green of his eyes and scarf pop. His head looks a bit big but otherwise it looks great! A really nice, clean design.
Haha white hair looks so freakin awesome
awesome character designs, this guy's lookin pretty hot
Don't get me wrong, I love your art and this character, but I think there's some anatomical inconsistencies. I just find it strange that his pants are so low and that his torso looks so long... It might be the clothes, though.
I-I really do like it though. 8)
I-I really do like it though. 8)
Looking pretty awesome : ) Nice work.
why do alot of your Ocs have swords?? still pretty good
nyaaaah cutie toboe really nice work as always
you are a goddess... he is alive!!
Kyyaaaa my favourite character !! I love his eyes, his face, his gaze...I love everything about him !!!! *nose bleed*
Hum sorry ^^" I can't control myself xD
Hum sorry ^^" I can't control myself xD
Share your skills? xD
I just love his eyes!
Brilliant job as always
Brilliant job as always
Oh wow, this is so amazing! I love the pose, the colors. His face is wonderful. Great job!!
I love your character designs so much
They're so awesome
They're so awesome
S-so cool
I wish I could fave it over and over and over
I wish I could fave it over and over and over

And those eyess...
And those eyess...
Sword. Faved.
Wow, his eyes really stand out - I like how you drew his face, and I like the colors you used! 8D
wow it looks great
он очень класный , но мне кажеться что у нево ноги немного короткие их верхнея часть тела длинее чем должна быть
это длинная кофта и низкие штаны
может быть, тут просто недостаточно наглядно это показано
может быть, тут просто недостаточно наглядно это показано
So amazing, as per usual
He looks so cool!
I love the way you draw hair and eyes so much ... ;-;
Love him)

Re: Arch and the "Haslett system"I would have to assume that Haslett, whom I believe is known for an aggressive defensive scheme, likes what Archuleta brings to the table as a blitzing safety
He's not a safety, he's an undersized College Linebacker. Another Martz attempt that anyone can play safety. WR's, QB's, LB's, CB's. This is a specialized position that requires someone who was groomed to do this for years in college, has the speed to cover receivers AND the size and physical skills to play the run, or make a hit. It's a rare breed.
I think we hoped Arch could be the next John Lynch, but the reality is that Arch is playing bigger than his size. He has to do that crazy workout regimine to stay NFL size. Let's put Carter in and cross our fingers that he matures throughout the year.

2. Lovie talked this guy up like the second coming. It was Lovie, not Martz, that coined the "next John Lynch" hype.
3. Let's not act like Arch is crap and has always been crap. Before his back injury, Arch was one of our top defenders, and among the league leaders in tackles.

Re: Arch and the "Haslett system"
I'm sorry boys, but Arch has to go. Given his propensity for concussions, and his back problems, all of which spell trouble for his continued success at the safety position in the future. I agree with GC that his pass coverage ability is marginal, and his ability to give run support is now compromised by his susceptibility to injury. I love what he brought to the team in the past, but maybe it is time to cut bait on this guy.

Re: Arch and the "Haslett system"
Yeah I think Archie has to go(though it pains me to say it). He will just get severely injured and milk it for as much money as he can before he gets cut. They need to start looking for a new guy now.
