A few articles have written about InfoCard in the past few months; now it's your chance to get a sneak peak of InfoCard. First, I recommend reading these two articles: Microsoft Vision of Identity System and The Laws of Identity. I also enjoy reading Kim Cameron's Identity Blog. Second, download Microsoft® Pre-Release Software Code Named "Avalon" and "Indigo"; it's currently in RC Beta 1. If you'd like to do some programming with InfoCard (I promise to show you how, in subsequent postings), you may want to install either Beta2 release of Visual Studio 2005 or Beta2 release of Visual Studio Express. Optionally, we could also download WinFX RC Beta 1 SDK documentation and samples here; I warn you the SDK download is huge (351MB), and for InfoCard walkthroughs, this is not required.
Ready, set, go…
Once you complete the WinFX Runtime installation, you're ready…
1. First, you must start "InfoCard Service" manually; you could use the command prompt: net start "InfoCard Service". Note: this is Beta 1 behavior. In a subsequent beta release, it's very likely that you don't have worry about starting the InfoCard Service anymore.
2. Go to control panel, you will see a new control applet, call "Digital Identities" - double click it.
3. You will see the InfoCard Management UI. I'm going to warn you that this is a 'wire frame' UI, it is enough get basic ideas across, but it is no where close to the final UI, and it will be radically different in a subsequent beta release, so please don't read too much into this.
What you see?
1. You see a separate, secured desktop was created.
2. UI that allows you to manage your digital identities. Note please do not confuse contact list/address book. Your digital identities are similar to what you have in your wallet (driver license, creditcards, membership club, frequent flier mile cards, student card, employee card, etc). You could also issue your own card, such as your own business card. Card issued by you is what we call self-issued card. In beta 1, we only support self issued card. In next beta release, we'll include support for 3rd party issuers.
3. Each user profile has its own collection of cards. Let's say you share your computer with your daughter; and you create two user accounts (one for you, one for her); her digital identity collection will be separate from yours.
4. You could use this UI to create, delete, edit your self-issued cards. A limitation in Beta 1 is you have to fill in all the fields, before a self-issued card can be created.
As described in the Identity Metasystem article, InfoCard plays a role as an Identity Selector in the identity metasystem universe. In addition to this, InfoCard, in Beta 1, also ships with a local security token service (more later…), which plays role as an identity provider. Others could easily build an Identity Provider that will interopt with InfoCard. Others could also play role as Relying Party (consuming the token); and others could play multiple roles.
What's in the Card? The card (regardless of self-issued or issued by third party) contains only metadata information – the cards do not hold claim values (i.e your name, address, zip code, birthday). The metadata information has enough information for InfoCard System to communicate the Identity Provider to get the security token. So, who owns the data? Identity Provider; who consumes the data? Relying Party; and User, as the crucial player in the Identity Metasystem MUST approve the release of the data; and InfoCard's role as the Identity Selector is to help the user communicating to Relying Party (RP) and Identity Provider(IP), as well as identity pickers for the user. An Identity Provider hosts a security token service (STS); the primary function of this service is to exchange a token for another token. Applies this to our model, InfoCard System will authenticate to IP; the IP who owns the data will construct a new security token to you that you can present to RP. As said previously, InfoCard also ships with a local STS, which is capable of producing self-issued tokens.
Well, it's enough concepts for now; let's explore the fun stuff (aka programming) later…

A Florida man with is facing charges after he called 9-1-1 on himself while lost in a wooded area of Polk County.
According to the Polk County Sheriff, on May 29, Andrew Joffe called 9-1-1 around 1:40 a.m. to report that he was "lost and being chased by wild hogs". He also told dispatchers that he didn't know where he was exactly but he was somewhere near Deen Road.
Deputies found Joffe on the country road but the discovery was bittersweet. The report claims that Joffe was arrested due to an outstanding warrant for him previously driving with a suspended license.
In addition to having a bad sense of direction,Joffe was hit with more charges after deputies began taking inventory of his backpack.
According to police, in his backpack,they found ear rings, cell phones, electronics and of all things, a GPS locator. When deputies turned on the GPS, the home address showed up at a home in nearby Davenport, where the owner's car was recently burglarized.
Joffe reportedly admitted to the burglary and faces two additional charges, burglary-conveyance and petit theft. He was booked into the Bartow jail.
"We have had people with warrants call us to turn themselves in before, but it's unusual for someone with an active warrant, who just burglarized a car, to get lost and call us for help," said Sheriff Grady Judd. "In his defense, it does get pretty dark out on Deen Still Road in the middle of the night."

SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH -- A Detroit-based Delta Air Lines pilot is accused of molesting a 14-year-old girl as a passenger on a flight from Detroit to Salt Lake City Saturday.
First reported by the Detroit News, a formal complaint was filed in Salt Lake City's federal court due to the alleged crime place in an interstate aircraft.
The filing says Michael James Pascal occupied the center seat in row 44 of the plane. The teen, identified in court documents as R.S. to protect her identity, rode in the window seat.
The girl, who had an injury and boarded on crutches, spoke briefly with Pascal prior to take off; he helped her get a red airplane blanked and she said he "was nice," according to the complaint.

2009 Research Summary
Common Randomness and Distributed Control
View Current Project Information
Venkat Anantharam and Vivek Borkar1
National Science Foundation CCF-0500023, National Science Foundation CCF-0635372 and National Science Foundation CNS-0627161
We study the role of common randomness in creating desired joint probability distributions at multiple agents. Of particular interest is the situation where the joint distribution needs to be created exactly, e.g., in game theoretic situations, where this is used to randomize against an adversary (in which case any inexactness in realizing the distribution might provide a strategic advantage to the adversary).

A Kenyan woman trafficked to Saudi Arabia is being held by a recruitment agency demanding $3,400 for breach of contract before it will release her, The Star newspaper reported on Monday.
Kenyans often migrate to the Middle East in search of jobs but are sometimes exploited in domestic servitude, brothels, massage parlours or in forced manual labour.
Teresia Njuguini, 25, was told she was going to work in Dubai as a secretary, her mother told the paper. But she ended up being abused in a domestic job in Medina, Saudi Arabia.
She worked for three months without a salary before being passed on to another agency, her mother said.
The agency is now claiming 300,000 Kenyan shillings ($3,400) from her for a breach of a job contract that was to run for two years, the newspaper reported.
"I don't have that money and I'm appealing to the government for help," the woman's mother, Margaret Nderitu told the newspaper.
"They are now giving very little food to my daughter. They are locking her up in the house and threatening to kill her if we don't pay that money."
In November 2013, the Kenyan government lifted a ban it had imposed in June 2012 on Kenyans departing to the Middle East as domestic workers.
It has faced criticism for failing to adequately monitor overseas recruitment agencies.
In 2013, the ministry of labour reported that it had inspected 389 out of an estimated total of 500 labour recruitment agencies, the 2014 Department of State trafficking in persons report said.

…aaand we're back.
The 4th of May isn't simply Star Wars day, it's the anniversary of Strange Gods. Saturday marked six years since I uploaded my very first webcomic. I never expected to be still producing them a year later, much less six. It was something I did simply for the hell of it. It was a little side art project predominately designed to keep me busy. I figured it would be a nice way to learn more about color and typography, two areas of art of which I was hopelessly clueless. Now while Strange Gods has never received anything more than a small-to-modest readership, it remained something that I enjoyed producing. It's always been something that was done, first and foremost, for myself. I've honestly never cared if anyone but me found the jokes funny, and half the time, the strips were little more than chances for me to play around with Photoshop layers and try little lighting or color tricks.
The only ever issue was that Strange Gods was never started with any real purpose. I wasn't a cartoonist, and I had put absolutely zero thought into the characters; either their visual designs or who they really even were. I was making up the style as I went, and it showed, as the visuals would rapid change throughout the course one year to the next. Eventually this left me feeling more than a little stuck. I had grown to like the characters. I had grown to enjoy telling little stupid stories about them. But I hated drawing them. The evolution of their designs had some serious problems from which I couldn't seem to escape. I didn't know what to do. It may seem relatively simple now, but even with only producing three strips a week, I couldn't find enough distance to identify and fix what was wrong. Then life got in the way.
To put it simply: I got busy. I got really busy.
In retrospect, I like to think of it as a sabbatical. Watterson took two that lasted nine months each. Granted, he was also pumping out seven strips a week of what was probably the most intelligent and well-drawn comic ever to grace the newspapers, but still, I had to allow myself to accept that a break was okay. In the end, it wasn't even an art time management problem, it was a writing one. I was busy, and I simply didn't feel funny.
I stopped drawing anything cartoony for at least a solid month. Maybe even longer.
And it was amazing.
When I found myself sketching characters, enough time had passed that most of my bad habits weren't quite so habitual anymore. It seems so bizarre in retrospect, but the decisions to be made now seemed obvious. Most of the changes are under the hood, mechanical stuff that simply allows me to enjoy drawing these characters again.
So, on the sixth anniversary of this dumb comic, I am back from my dumb break.
This isn't a reboot or a 2.0 thing. Instead, I like to think of it a more akin to a new season of a tv show with a slightly more focused direction.

Hello, everyone! Stacking a game full of charm and whimsy and stacking, but also some times bugs get in the way of the charm and the stacking. If you are affected by a less-than-whimsical bug, glitch, crash or other defect, please check out this here FAQ before posting. Many users are affected by the same problems that all have easy fixes, which is what this FAQ is all about. If you have read this FAQ and still can't find an answer for your problem, do a quick search for other threads on the topic here. If that fails, too, then please post a new thread on the problem!
Stacking is doing sometheing strange and random and glitchy and none of the specific things below help, what can I do?
Computers are fickle beasts and sometimes things go wrong, but fortunately there are some easy things to try that fix a lot of the random issues. If you post about an issue, very likely we'll ask you to try one or more of these things first.
* Reboot your computer. It's a simple thing but it's amazing how many problems this solves.
* Update your drivers, especially video card drivers. Just don't try to use beta drivers as they will often cause more problems than they solve.
* Verify the Integrity of You Local Game Cache. You can do this by Right clicking on Stacking in your library, chosing Properties, Advanced, and then clicking the Verify Integrity of Local Game Cache button.
* Manually run the DirectX and Visual Studio C++ (vc) redistributables. This ensures that you have all the support libraries installed that Stacking needs to run happily.
* Try deactivating heavy background processes like anti-virus or malware scanners. On some computers these programs are so demanding that they significantly interfere with high performance games. If this doesn't solve your problem, though, be sure to turn your scanners back on!
When I play Stacking I see lots of strange visual artifacts and can see through dolls and other parts of the world. How do I fix it?
This problem is almost always caused by MSAA being forced on through the video card drivers. Simply set your MSAA settings to "use application defaults" or the nearest equivalent and you'll be g2g. If you're forcing any other settings on, you should probably let the application run those, too.
When I start Stacking, I just get a black screen and nothing happens. What gives?
On some people's computers, the graphics drivers compile shaders for a while, sometimes up to a few minutes, before starting the game. You can usually wait through this and then everything will be fine.
I can see through the walls of the TopHat Lounge? Why? Why? Why?
This is a known bug that appears on some graphics cards, especially ones made by NVIDIA. There is no known fix, but we are working on figuring out how to patch it.
When I press a button on my 360-style controller, the game hangs or crashes. Why does the universe hate me?
This crash is rare, but has always been caused by users having installed extra gamepad drivers on top of the native 360 drivers. Stacking should only be played with the native drivers, and supports lots of good stuff like remappable controls and tunable sensitivity settings.
Stacking is locked to a max of 30 fps. This makes me very angry. What can I do about it?
As of this writing, Stacking is a faithful port of the console version and is capped to 30 fps. There is no way to work around this setting, but Double Fine is trying to find the time to modify our engine to support uncapped rendering. If and when we do this, it will be made available on all Buddha engine games (Stacking, CQ, etc).
I have an ultra-awesome powerful GPU and want to run Stacking at the absolute maximum quality settings. How can I do this?
First off, select the maximum resolution that your monitor suppors. Then, launch the game with the secret command line options -ssaa2x or -ssaa4x. This will run the game with super sampled aliasing, either double the base res or quadruple the base res. It's the finest anti-aliasing money can buy.

Sales of the iPhone 4 soared 211% year-on-year, highlighting the success of its strategy of discounting older models in emerging markets. The strong iPhone 4 sales also bodes well for an lower-end iPhone should Apple choose to release that.
"Apple leverages the incentive policies for channels to inspire the shipments of iPhone 4, further expanding its user base," noted Wang.
By the end of 2013, IDC predicted that the market share of smartphones with screens 5-inch and larger will grow from the current 7.5% to over 20% due to the halo effect from popular large-screen devices like Samsung's Galaxy S and Note.
Lenovo Sets Its Eyes on Global Smartphone Market
With PC sales declining consistently,
Group Limited
(OTCMKTS:LNVGY), which derives 80% of its revenue from PCs, is turning toward the smartphone market in search of a new growth avenue.
"We must make another successful transition," Lenovo CEO
Yang Yuanqing
told the
Wall Street Journal
. "Smartphones are our new opportunity."
Lenovo is already the second largest smartphone company in China, trailing only Samsung, but the company wants to go global. Its lower-end smartphones can currently be found in a few emerging markets, but Lenovo also hopes to sell smartphones in the US within the next year.
The company's smartphone division in China has turned a profit thanks to the strength of its in-house production capabilities, but finding success abroad against titans like Samsung, Apple, and
(NYSE:NOK) will require a sharp marketing strategy to differentiate the brand from its competitors.
"We know the importance of marketing, and we will strengthen that," said Yang.
Rosneft Inks New Oil Deal With China
Rosneft Oil Co
(OTCMKTS:RNFTF) will double oil supplies to China after signing a $270 billion deal this Friday, reported
Starting in 2015, Rosneft will supply China with 300,000 barrels of oil daily over 25 years, as the world's biggest oil producer switches its focus from Europe to China. That figure is on top the 300,000 bpd that Rosneft currently ships to China.
According to Russian President Vladimir Putin, Rosneft will get $70 billion upfront, which analysts say is welcome news for the indebted company.
"If confirmed, this would be a transformational event for the company's balance sheet: Rosneft could even potentially be able to show a net cash position, though working capital would be negative. The prepayment could minimize financing risks for the leveraged state-controlled oil company," wrote JPMorgan analysts in a note.
Tencent Purchases Stake in Fab.com
E-commerce website Fab.com announced this week that it had raised $150 million from several investors in its latest round of funding. One of the investors included China's
Holdings Ltd
(HKG:0700), which said that it made a "minority investment" in Fab.com but did not disclose the value of the investment.
Tencent could come in to help Fab break into the Chinese e-commerce market, which is projected to notch 2 trillion yuan ($326 billion) in sales by the end of 2013.
"Fab is one of the leading online design retailers in the world. Tencent believes Fab has the potential to further develop under the wave of the global, social, and mobile transformation of the e-commerce industry," Tencent said in an email statement, according to
With the latest financing, the New York-based Fab has raised some $310 million to date, and it is valued at $1 billion.

- Highlights were the 2 night cruise down the Irrawaddy River which was just wonderful - book the two night cruise rather than the one night cruise as this gives more time to relax and be pampered. Lake Inle is just magical, particularly in the early morning in the mist. Amara Ocean Resort in Ngapali is possibly one of the best hotels we've stayed in - the perfect R&R after a long and busy trip. If possible ask the guide to show you things other than temples which can get a bit repetitive - our guide in Mandalay took us to a local food market one morning as we are very interested in cookery and food. There were too many local crafts included in the itinerary but we asked not to see some of them as we'd seen them before. We were also invited to have lunch at a monastery and visited a local school for young nuns - real highlights for us both!

After Reem Acra's A/W '14 runway presentation at Lincoln Center on Monday Feb. 10, there's no doubt we'll be seeing one of her designs at the Academy Awards in less than a month. The collection epitomized luxe glamour, with over-the-top furs and gowns with just a hint of edge. Inspired by the idea of an elegant woman walking through Paris, Acra showed three dozen sultry yet mature evening looks.
The collection was overrun with embellishments like feathered tops and beaded column dresses, which reminded us of the Oscar statue itself. We especially loved the outwear — oversized a-line trenches, capes, and vests.
The show began with a bold look — a cocktail dress embroidered with glitter and feathers with a leather bodice that cinched the waist — but the risks didn't stop there. Acra also didn't skimp on the pieces she does well, '70s flavored pieces like oversized fur boleros and sequined drapey party frocks. Even Acra's more buttoned up looks were spectacular including a deep purple wool coat peered with knee length skirt.
Showstoppers included a pink wool coat with thick leather belt, a sequined cardigan coupled with a pencil skirt in pink and black, a sheer embroidered top with glitter belt and feathered black pencil skirt, and a cream silk coat covered in embroidered flowers.
The final third of the line was all about amazing red carpet numbers like a black, gold, and white striped strapless column gown that looked more like flames rising up (think Hunger Games style) and a cherry red ball gown with loose voluptuous bottom and a cutout top. On the beauty side, Acra showed a simple sleek updo with dark eyes and a glossy lip.

From the package
"Blue potatoes orignated thousands of years ago in South America but were only introduced in North America in the 1970's. In the past decade, these delicately colored potatoes have swept the culinary world for their exquisite appearance and rich taste profile. At Seneca, we believe in pure and natural ingredients, so we prepare our chips as simply as possible and season with only the merest suggestion of salt."

Minimalism, metal, and more
Why is Philip Glass the best-known American minimalist composer? I think some of John Adams' work is far more interesting. One of my favorite Glass releases isn't even really minimalist (Kronos Quartet Plays Philip Glass, a collection of his compositions for string quartet). It doesn't get much wackier than Nixon In China, Adams' minimalist opera which I am currently enjoying.
There was a discussion a while back on rec.music.progressive that I think is worth going over again. Heavy metal bands were often rhythmically intricate (Metallica, various technical-metal bands) or melodically interesting (Iron Maiden, Queensryche, any number of "progressive" metal bands today), but seldom both. Why is this? Had Queenryche added shifting meters and wild drumming to Operation: Mindcrime, would it have made a better record? Eh… maybe. Only two bands that combine rhythmic complexity with melodic composition into a heavy-metal framework were mentioned: Watchtower and Spastic Ink, neither of which do much for me thanks to their rather sterile sound. Are there any others out there?
I'm seriously considering the sociology major here at Yale, and I think it would be really cool to research the cultural and sociological causes and effects of progressive rock movements outside the UK. The scene in the UK has been well-documented (Macan, Stump, et al), as perhaps has the Krautrock scene, but I haven't seen any substantial insights into the Italian, French, Spanish, Japanese, Eastern European, or modern Scandinavian or South American scenes. Hmm.

About Hazardous Areas
Oil & Gas - Upstream Applications
Product Selection Issues
- Salt water corrosion (Tankers)
- Extreme ambient temperature (High temperature Middle East / Low temperature Russia)
- Protection level
- Consequence of down time
- Approval level required (Ex e, Ex d, etc.)
- Approval specification required ATEX, IECEx, UL, GOST etc
- Where product will be positioned, e.g. Zone 1 or Zone 2
The oil and gas market is split into three sectors: Upstream, Midstream and Downstream. Upstream consists of Exploration and production both these areas offer very distinct and unique challenges to people and equipment working within them.
Firstly there are offshore applications such as the drilling rigs and production platforms; these are always open to extreme weather conditions so equipment used here needs to be able to withstand a salty environment. This is achieved through either manufacturing product from stainless steel as is the case for the Kopex-Ex conduit glands, and DTS enclosures, or by ensuring that the product is coated or painted to withstand marine environments as in the DTS XFF fluorescent lighting.
Equipment in offshore applications also needs to be hardwearing and easy to maintain as production downtime can be extremely costly. For example, FPSO (Floating Production Storage and Offloading) vessel can produce up to 200,000 barrels of crude oil per day at approximately $80 to $90 per barrel. A breakdown would result in the vessel producing a loss of revenue of over $700,000 and hour.
This has led to Kopex-Ex conduit systems> being used in many offshore applications to protect critical data and power cables across these massive vessels. Whether it is data cables from a gas detector, or the cable protection on a power transmission unit, Kopex-Ex offers a whole range of products that are tested and approved to many of the world standards.
DTS lighting on the other hand offers easy maintenance with removable gear trays allowing the entire gear tray to be removed and maintenance to be carried out quickly and safely. In fact on the XFF Exd luminaries the components such as ballasts and tubes are standard so the stocking and sourcing of spare parts is made easy. Again essential to an offshore vessel.
Secondly onshore applications can also be split into exploration and production. However onshore is more economically viable than offshore with some wells only producing as few as a dozen barrels of oil a day. However, they can become extremely large with wells being networked together to produce up to a million barrels of oil a day.
This brings with it a whole new series of challenges to be overcome. Firstly the drilling rigs tend to be mobile with motors and pumps often mounted on skids for easy transportation. This can lead to issues of connectivity for which Kopex-Ex have a range of thread converters in a variety of materials and approvals ready to resolve the problem.
Secondly with so many rigs in a network there is a massive monitoring operation to be done to ensure that the flow of all the rigs is on-going and consistent. This is where the DTS range of instrumentation boxes can offer great flexibility as they can be custom made to meet exact specifications.
The need to maintain flow also leads to the need for motors and controls on the well heads themselves, often referred to as "Christmas Trees". These are under high pressure and must be able to withstand up to 1400 bar. This is a critical area and has to be monitored closely to ensure that pressure does not fluctuate. This is done by the valves within the wellhead controlled by motors. DTS EJB enclosures can be custom built to control these valves and at the same time monitor the pressures and relay it back to the central control point.

Empire State Movie Reviews
User reviews on Empire State
I was not planning on seeing this film but my friend talk me into it and I kind of hate him for that. This movie is definitely not worth seeing in the theaters and I hope that people overall avoid this film. The movie plays out in a very predictable way and I have seen this film many times before. Liam Hemsworth gives an uninspired performance and makes this film even more boring, I honestly don't understand how this guy gets any roles. It seemed that Dwayne Johnson's natural charisma was downplayed in this film and that made no sense whatsoever. Overall, this film is a complete disaster and I am sorry that I have wasted my money on it.

Can art change the world? Where do we draw the line between investigation and activism, intervention and witness, persuasion and propaganda? Who gets to claim personal and communal narratives, and what are the implications of breaking silence versus forgetting history?

Captain America T-shirt-wearing man breaks into Kennedy compound, 'looking for Katy Perry'
(CNN) -- A man wearing a Captain America T-shirt and camouflage shorts broke into the Kennedy compound in Barnstable, Massachusetts, on Tuesday, police said. When officers asked him what he was doing there, he replied: "Looking for Katy Perry."
Officers went to the house in the village of Hyannis Port after receiving a call from a man who said he had phoned the property to check on his teenage son and a stranger answered.
Police found a black car parked outside the home. Inside, they found the 53-year-old man in the kitchen, said Police Officer John O'Hare. The teen was also in the kitchen; he was unharmed.
The man told police he had been there for three hours and was looking for the pop singer Katy Perry.
He was booked on breaking and entering charges.

CINCINNATI -- State law enforcement officials are attempting to track down a convicted sexual predator who has been eluding authorities since 2012.
The Hamilton County Sheriff's Office issued a warrant for the arrest of Robert Miller, 41, in September 2012. He last registered his address in June of that year as being on Hasler Lane in Cincinnati.
He is wanted on a charge of Failure to Verify a Change of Address, according to a release from the office of Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine.
Public records show that Miller, who is categorized as a sexual predator, was convicted of Gross Sexual Imposition in Hamilton County in 1998 for an assault on a juvenile female.
Records show that he also failed to register his address with authorities in the past.
Miller is 5-foot-6, 160 pounds, and has brown hair and brown eyes. You can find out more information about him and his arrest on his page on the Crime Watch website .
Anyone with information regarding Miller's whereabouts should contact the U.S. Marshals' Southern Ohio Fugitive Apprehension Strike Team at 1-866-4-WANTED (866-492-6833) or by using their text tip line by texting the keyword WANTED to TIP411.
Those with information can also contact the Hamilton County Sheriff's Office or the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI) at 855-BCI-OHIO (855-224-6446).

Great product but level 0 is needed
By V
from Undisclosed
Comments about Barely There Tint SPF 30 - Level 2 Light/Medium - 1 oz:
I really like this tinted moisturiser because it's truly "barely there". I can barely feel it on my skin but it's good enough to cover the redness on my face. However, the Level 1 color is still too dark for me. I'm Asian with very pale skin. Please make Level 0 available and I'll definitely purchase again. :)
Customer Service Response: Hello, and thanks for your comments! We're always looking at ways to improve our products, so we'll definitely take this into consideration!

Simply the Best
By Sophia B.
Prior to trying out this product I was using Stila's sheer color tinted moisturizer in bare, and noticed that in the beautypedia review it said that it was very similar to this product. Barely there FAR surpasses the stila tm. First of all, this has a natural matte finish while providing moisture. Stila's had shimmer in it which drove me nuts. Barely there lasts all day and works beautifully with any skincare underneath or make up on top, and it provides spf 30! I wear this everyday now!

Level 0 Needed
By Kathryn C.
I really like this, but I really wish it came in a shade lighter than level 1. It's just a tad too dark.

Love this!
By Melody L.
I absolutely love this product! It gives me the light coverage I was looking for. I threw away the Bare Minerals Bare Skin oily sludge foundation that I was using. Pairing Barely There Sheer Matte Tint with Paula's Choice matte powder, I look pretty amazing for 62 years old! As a new customer of Paula's Choice, I like all the products I have tried so far. The free samples are a great way to try the products.
A No-Go for Barely There
By Elise A.
I really thought I'd like this as everyone else seems to, but for some reason it totally doesn't work for me. My skin looks/feels better before I put it on. It leaves me with a shiny filmy sort of look to my skin....not nice at all. It also accentuates my pores and just overall gives my skin an odd look. It doesn't help even out coloration. Nothin'. I've also tried wearing it under my foundation, but it doesn't work well for that, either. It makes my foundation look weird too! It's a no for me.

Good Tinted Moisturizer
By LYNETTE M.
I do not wear makeup everyday because I am retired & live in the country. I have redness on my nose & cheek area (age-63yrs). I mix level 3&4 together to get the tint I like. Simple & works for me.
love this product - never d/c it!!!!
By kathy m
i bought this product a bit uncertain how it would look. I find these tinted moisturizers to make you look orange or too pale. I don't like liquid foundation because i think it ages you and have been looking for just a bit of coverage. I have pretty fair and bought shade 2. I can't tell you how many compliments i have had on how good my skin looks. Gives you a glowing complexion without being too shiny or yellow/orange. Feels great too. I hope you always have it. -
Lovely product for drier skin types
By Anonymous
Silkiest mineral sunscreen I've ever tried, blends easily into skin without much effort. I have sensitive, acne-prone skin with fine lines and enlarging pores as I get further into my 30's. This is too moisturizing for my oily skin this time of year, I prefer Paula's Choice Best Face Forward because of that, but I would recommend it to anyone with dry skin and I'd consider purchasing the full size of this during very dry winter months.
When will this be available?
By Tamara R
Help! When will this be back in stock? Level 1?
Fantastic tinted moisturizer with mineral sun protection
By Elena S.
I am in love with this moisturizer which I first ordered when I lived in the UK. Colder winter was not an issue with it. It is moisturizing enough without being greasy, very natural finish, stays put very long hours, creates beautiful base for my makeup. I love it mainly because of its ingredients that work so well with my rosacea issue. I use non-SPF moisturizer under it.Now I am in the US and I see my Level 1 is being out of stock. How sad. I hope to see it around soon.
Just Enough Coverage
Very beautiful coverage. Not too heavy and not too light. No smell of SPF and great for my combination skin. However, I purchased the sample pack and when I went to order in the regular size, the color indicators were not shown (example: Light, Light/Medium). It was confusing because I did not remember the number it coincided with on the sample pack, until I went to look at the sample pack page.
Where's Level 1?
By Jenny
This product is terrific, and Level 1 is the perfect color for my skin. Several here have inquired after it -- could you please reply to us with information about if/when this product will ever be available again? I don't want to, but I am on the verge of shopping for a new product -- one that will be available on a consistent basis (as this is not the first time I've had this problem with your company). No matter how good your products are, you'll eventually lose business this way.
Customer Service Response: Hello, and thanks for the question! We anticipate it being back in stock in a couple of weeks.
Don't forget about us light gals!
By Danielle, L
Looks like there have been several other comments for over a month wondering where level 1 has gone? Please don't forget about us. I can't use the other mineral spf moisturizer from PC due to the color being to dark and I'm finding that some other brands are breaking me out.
By CHRISTINE b.
I love this stuff!! I'm 44, and this works great as a foundation for me when I use the technique (from Goss make up artist) of applying my moisturizer first, then a setting powder, and then the Barely There Sheer Matte Tint. I actually get a little better coverage this way without it looking mask like, settling into pores/wrinkles, etc. Level 2 matches my skin shade perfectly. Thanks, Paula!!!!
Holy grail
By Ally c
I purchased the level 1 for my fair skinned daughter last year after we discovered she was reacting to her Laura mercier product. This has been fantastic! No stinging no break outs and no rashes. Better still, she is applying a little bit of sunscreen on a regular basis to her sensitive skin. Thank you for having a product with mineral-based sun screen only! Please don't run out of the light shades!
Coverage for a variety of ills
By Pam O
Light, elastic coverage that doesn't sit in wrinkles and pores. Great for Rosacea or Eczema-prone flakey skin. Whereas most foundations make flakey skin look like fur, this product smooths and minimizes flakes. Some complain of yellow tint. It's a good color for covering red outbreaks, blue skin around eyes, and brown age spots. You can compensate for yellow cast by altering make-up into peach and coral accents (blush and lipstick.) Or use a pinkey powder over foundation to color correct.
By sara
When will the lightest shade be back in stock? I sure hope it is not discontinued...
(3 of 3 customers found this review helpful)
By Barbara C
This is one of the few tinted moisturizers that I can use on my skin. My irritate skin calms down after using this product. However, the lightest shade is too yellow and dark for me. Please make a lighter shade.
Level 1?
By nikyla s.
I'd love to order this but is the lightest shade discontinued? Or just out of stock? If it's out of stock, how long until things are usually available again?
Lighter shade please!
By SARAH
The absolute ONLY spf that I do not have an allergic reaction to.... (no film formers, no unnecessary sensitizing extracts)...but alas, my (not very) pale skin is too light! Please Paula: as more and more women protect their skin, more of us will fall into the "zero" shade. Don't leave us out.
Please offer a lighter shade!
In everything but shade, this is an HG product for me. It doesn't provide coverage in an opaque way, but has a magical all over tone correcting quality for reddish skin. It's invisible in terms of finish - just like applying a lotion. It doesn't make me oily, but it doesn't mattify so much as to deaden my skin. Still leaves my cheekbones dewy and I take care of my nose with a little Shine Stopper. However Level 1 on my nw15 skin has people asking why I look more "tan". Level 0 pretty please!
Customer Service Response: Hello, and thanks for your comments! We're always taking the possibility of new shades into consideration, so we will pass your comments along!
Pleasantly surprised
By Lisa
I was pleasantly surprised how much I ended up liking this product. I initially wanted to try PC's foundations with spf, and while I put those in my cart, I, at the last minute, decided to try this one at the same time. Funnily enough, I ended up liking this one the best out of all of them. A very light coverage (but more coverage than most tinted moisturizers) gives a very natural pretty look, and I LOVE that it has broad spectrum spf 30. I like applying this over hydralight spf to layer. :-)
Best I have used
By Tom Godfrey
I gave this product five starts because it uses physical sunblock. It is lightweight on your skin. It does provide an SPF30 which is the level at which I proportion of the suns rays are not penetrating. The gem of this product though is that it helps blend melasma or blemishes and helps them look more natural as in part of your face instead of a clear anomaly. The crucial thing then is does it cause irritation or acne. The answer was no for me. It was a good sun protection
Might not buy again
By Joslyn A.
I ordered this after reading PC review of Stila's tinted moisturizer that said the formula was similar but cost less. Since she raised the price on this, that's no longer true, but the formula does feel similar but it doesn't look similar. On the plus side, it's more matte than Stila's, but the shades are a little off. After the second lightest (where I fall on Stilas shades) was too yellow, I got the sample pack that came out and none of the others was an improvement. Probably won't reorder.
Really nice
By Sabina
I must say that I never thought that I was the kind of girl that could wear just a tinted moisturizer. This is really my first purchase of Paula's Choice makeup and I actually love it. I have a lot of flaws, acne scarring along cheeks, start of wrinkles and spots that no makeup will cover. I use 2 light layers and top of with PF BB powder and a little bronzer and I am good to go. I have combo skin and I never look greasy or dry. Just perfect. Love it.

Key Ingredients:
sodium hyaluronate, titanium dioxide, vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc oxide
Active: Titanium Dioxide 5%; Zinc Oxide 5% (mineral-based sunscreens); Other: Water, Cyclopentasiloxane (silicone slip agent), Propylene Glycol (water-binding agent), PEG/PPG-18/18-Dimethicone (silicone-based emulsifier), Octyldodecyl Neopentanoate (thickener), Dimethicone, Cyclohexasiloxane (silicone slip agents), Talc (absorbent), Phytantriol (water-binding agent), Tocopherol, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (antioxidants vitamin E and C), Glycerin, Sodium Hyaluronate (skin-repairing ingredients), Aluminum Hydroxide, Stearic Acid (thickeners), Triethoxycaprylylsilane (slip agent), Boron Nitride (absorbent), Sodium Dehydroacetate (preservative), Palmitic Acid (thickener), Dextrin Palmitate (emulsifier), Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Propylparaben (all preservatives). May Contain: Mica, Iron Oxides, Titanium Dioxide (pigments).
DIRECTIONS: Apply after using your usual skin-care routine. You can use this tinted moisturizer with sunscreen over your daytime moisturizer whether it also contains sunscreen or not. It is fine to layer sunscreens. Apply with a makeup sponge, foundation brush, or clean fingertips. Dab the tint over the central part of the face, and blend downward using short, smooth strokes. Layer as needed to build desired coverage and then smooth out any excess product. If desired, follow with a pressed powder.
Barely There Sheer Matte Tint SPF 30 can be layered for additional color and a bit more coverage. Since this is a tint, the level of coverage increases only subtly as you add layers (not substantially as it would with a foundation).
Since the shades are sheer, it is not critical to get an exact match. If you are in-between two shades, we recommend going with the shade that is slightly darker (instead of lighter) than your skin tone. This will add a touch of translucent color to your face, though you will want to make sure the shade matches your neck/jawline as closely as possible (samples of each shade are available).
Do I need to use a separate moisturizer with Barely There Sheer Matte Tint SPF 30?
Is Barely There Sheer Matte Tint SPF 30 closer to a tinted moisturizer or a foundation?
Is Barely There Sheer Matte Tint SPF 30 safe for breakout-prone skin?
How come this foundation's SPF rating increased from SPF 20 to SPF 30? Did the formula change?
Help! I'm confused by the new shade names. How do I know which shade to buy now?

Brock Lesnar was in attendance at last night's UFC 146 pay-per-view and was shown before the Frank Mir vs. Junior do Santos main event. UFC President Dana White was asked in the post-show press conference if there was anything more to Lesnar appearing on the telecast and he answered by saying, "yeah."
White later admitted that Lesnar could be returning to the UFC.
Brock is currently under a 1-year contract with WWE that he signed over Wrestlemania XXVIII weekend in Miami. In the contract, Lesnar will make upwards of $5 million for select appearances throughout the year leading into and including Wrestlemania XXIX.
I have already heard from one of my sources regarding Lesnar's status and am working on a story that will be up shortly.
