Asian Stocks Rise as IMF Outlook, U.S. Retail Data Ease Concern
Asian stocks rose, led by commodity producers and banks, as the International Monetary Fund raised its global economic growth forecast and a U.S. trade group said the country's retail sales grew the fastest in four years.
BHP Billiton Ltd. rose 2 percent in Sydney on higher oil and copper prices. Honda Motor Co. and Canon Inc., which get more than a quarter of their revenue from the Americas jumped at least 3 percent. NEC Corp. advanced 2.2 percent in Tokyo after saying it aims to double its share of the world's supercomputer market in the next four years. HSBC Holdings Plc, Europe's biggest lender by market value, climbed 2.5 percent in Hong Kong as investors speculated European banks will pass stress tests.
"I doubt we'll have another global recession," said Masayuki Kubota, a fund manager at Tokyo-based Daiwa SB Investments Ltd., which oversees about $51 billion in assets. "People are very sensitive to economic data from the U.S. If something good comes out, market sentiment easily rebounds. I'm buying sectors which were sold on excessive pessimism."
The MSCI Asia Pacific Index rose 1.8 percent to 115.32 as of 7:20 p.m. in Tokyo. The gauge has slumped 11 percent from its high this year on April 15 on concern Europe's debt crisis and Chinese steps to curb property prices will hurt global growth. Companies in the gauge trade at 14 times estimated earnings, near the lowest level since December 2008.
Australia's S&P/ASX 200 Index climbed 2.4 percent after a statistics bureau report showed employers added workers in June for a fourth straight month, supporting the central bank's view that the nation's economy is strengthening.
S&P 500 Rallies
Japan's Nikkei 225 Stock Average gained 2.8 percent, while the Kospi index added 1.4 percent in Seoul. Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index climbed 0.9 percent. New Zealand's NZX 50 Index rose 0.8 percent.
Futures on the Standard & Poor's 500 Index declined 0.3 percent. The gauge surged 3.1 percent yesterday, the most since May, after the International Council of Shopping Centers trade group said U.S. retail sales probably expanded at an average monthly rate of 4 percent in the first five months of the retail fiscal year that began Jan. 31, the biggest gain since 2006.
Separately, the IMF raised its forecast for global growth this year, reflecting a stronger-than-expected first half, while warning that financial-market turmoil has increased the risks to the recovery. The world economy will expand 4.6 percent in 2010, the biggest gain since 2007, compared with an April projection of 4.2 percent, the Washington-based fund said in revisions today to its World Economic Outlook.
Japanese Exporters Advance
Growth next year is projected to be 4.3 percent, unchanged from the April forecast, the fund said.
Honda climbed 3.7 percent to 2,616 yen and Canon advanced 3.3 percent to 3,445 yen. Toyota Motor Corp., which counts North America as its biggest market outside Japan, gained 2.6 percent to 3,130 yen, while Sony Corp., which receives more than a fifth of its sales from the U.S., increased 4.4 percent to 2,423 yen. Nintendo Co., the maker of the Wii game machine that counts America and Europe as its biggest markets, rose 0.1 percent to 26,520 yen in Osaka.
"The focus now is on how the U.S. economy is doing," said Mitsushige Akino, who oversees $450 million at Tokyo-based Ichiyoshi Investment Management Co. "The general consensus was that the economy was going to deteriorate, and the good retail sales put a brake on that view."
BHP Billiton, Australia's biggest oil producer, climbed 2 percent to A$38.16 after oil climbed for a second day in New York. Also in Sydney, Woodside Petroleum Ltd., Australia's No. 2 oil and gas producer, advanced 1.9 percent to A$42.09. Inpex Corp., Japan's largest oil explorer, increased 1.5 percent to 476,000 yen.
Oil, Metal Producers
Cnooc Ltd., China's biggest offshore energy explorer, climbed 1.3 percent in Hong Kong to HK$12.86. Separately, the company said it's in "final discussions" on cooperating with Tullow Oil Plc to develop three oil blocks in Uganda's Lake Albert basin.
Rio Tinto Group, the world's third-biggest mining company, gained 1.8 percent to A$67.05 after copper futures for September climbed 1.5 percent to $3.015 a pound in New York yesterday. Mitsubishi Corp., Japan's No.1 commodity trading company, added 2.6 percent to 1,951 yen.
Korea Zinc Co., the world's second-biggest zinc smelter, climbed 6.7 percent to 237,500 won in Seoul. The company was raised to "buy" from "marketperform" at Daishin Securities Co., which cited the company's rising sales ratio of precious metals, in a report today.
NEC Supercomputers
Newcrest Mining Ltd., Australia's biggest gold producer, advanced 2.1 percent to A$34.18 after gold climbed for a second day on speculation its decline to the lowest level in almost six weeks is prompting some investors to increase holdings. Real Gold Mining Ltd., a Chinese producer of the metal, advanced 4.8 percent to HK$11 in Hong Kong.
In Tokyo, NEC, Japan's largest personal computer maker, jumped 2.2 percent to 237 yen. The company plans to have a 5 percent share of the supercomputer market it forecasts will reach $14.6 billion by 2014, Fumihiko Hisamitsu, general manager of NEC's high-performance computing division, said in a July 5 interview.
HSBC increased 2.5 percent to HK$73 in Hong Kong. Li & Fung Ltd., the world's biggest supplier for retailers that gets more than a quarter of its revenue from Europe, advanced 1.9 percent to HK$35.20.
People with knowledge of the European debt crisis said bank stress tests may assume a 17 percent loss on Greek bonds, half of the worst-case scenario estimated by JPMorgan Chase & Co.
Stress Tests
EU regulators are relying on the stress tests to restore public confidence in banks amid concern that some lenders don't have enough capital to withstand a default by a European country. A stress test of U.S. banks last May spurred a rally that boosted the Standard & Poor's Financials Index 36 percent in the following seven months.
Australian retailers rose after Australian jobs growth capped the best quarter in almost four years in June. Harvey Norman Holdings Ltd., Australia's biggest furniture and electronics retailer, climbed 5.8 percent to A$3.65. JB Hi-Fi Ltd., the nation's No. 2 electrical chain, advanced 4.3 percent to A$19.30. Australian banks also rose.
Among stocks that fell today, Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp., China's biggest chipmaker, dropped 10 percent to 53 Hong Kong cents, the MSCI Asia Pacific Index's biggest decline. The company priced a sale of 1.5 billion shares at 52 Hong Kong cents each, according to two people familiar with the offering.
ABC-Mart Inc. sank 6.5 percent to 3,070 yen. The shoe retailer was cut to "neutral" from "buy" by Ichiyoshi Securities Co. ABC-Mart yesterday said first-quarter net income rose to 3.71 billion yen ($42 million) from 3.56 billion yen a year earlier.

Why isn't this going to the Supreme Court? There is NO FREAKING WAY this is constitutional. Nor is it in any way, shape or form "conservative". It is RADICALLY undemocratic, reckless, and damaging.
I hope the press corps has the balls to ask John "Fuckface" Snow about gutting FEMA again over and over and over.

The body is either badly cut, or badly photoshopped into place. could make a sweet rally car though.
it does increase rotating mass, but think of the mass of the tires compared to that...almost a negligable in comparison. and i think this is a great solution to a really common problem, great video!

Great Hotel for the Price
juillet 18, 2016
Great Hotel, in a good location. Safe and Secure, No major issues with Hotel in general. Bed is Little hard (Not my Favorite) and the Walls seemed a bit thin (a lot of hallway noise). But overall I would stay here again based on price and location. Staff is very friendly and the Hotel is clean, overall a great stay.
Roomy, comfortable suites
juillet 11, 2016
Stayed two weeks on combination business/leisure visit. Excellent staff, kitchenette with full size fridge and fully stocked with utensils, plates, pots and everything else needed for extended stay.
Comfortable bed although somewhat noisy on this stay due to upstairs guests and proximity to garbage dumpster which is emptied very early in the morning.
juillet 11, 2016
This hotel is excellent - especially for extended stays. very clean, rooms are very spacious, updated. The area is very nice and park-like, but many restaurant and shopping options nearby. Great access to trains to the city. Staff is very friendly and food is excellent. Always come back when in town.

The Global Links program is a public private partnership founded in 2011 between the U.S. Secretary of State's Office of Global Women's Issues, Rollins College, and Tupperware. On being selected for the Global Links Program, Banerjee took in-depth business and social entrepreneurship training both at the Tupperware facility and at Rollins College, USA. After this training, she returned to Kolkata and integrated her new-found knowledge in the university's educational projects. Both Dr. Banerjee and Professor Mary Conway Dato-On of Rollins College were present at the event. For this initiative, seventeen students of Dr. Banerjee teamed up with women loan borrowers of Bandhan Bank to engage in hands-on practical learning and mentoring of business activities. As a direct result of such mentoring, mentee borrowers of Bandhan Bank and the mentor students have together developed business models under this program, administered by Dr. Banerjee, who is a Global Links Scholar. Under the guidance of Dr. Banerjee and Prof Conway, the mentor students gave a presentation on their experience of dealing with small business women entrepreneurs and highlighted the challenges and strengths of developing business in the region. Inaugurating the program, US Consul General Craig Hall remarked, "Farida Begum, being mentored by Neha Guha in her shoe manufacturing unit, Jamuna Joardar being mentored by Tripti Beriwal in her tailoring shop, and Ismat Bibi being mentored by Saugata Banerjee in her cap manufacturing unit are glowing examples of formal businesses being developed through the right kind of collaborations between governments, academic institutions, business partners and civil society."

This is also a time to reflect on progress made, to call for change and to celebrate acts of courage and determination by ordinary women who have played an extraordinary role in the history of their countries and communities." She added, "All around the world women face challenges, crises and discrimination. But we are also part of the solution.

2017 Maxima SCompare Specs
Feature offers for:
& 360
300-hp 3.5-liter DOHC 24-valve V6 engine
Under the hood lies the beating heart: Nissan's legendary VQ V6 engine. From sodium-filled exhaust valves and anodized pistons, to the high-flow tuned induction system, more than 60% of the engine's components have been redesigned for the Maxima®. It even borrows some performance technology from the mighty GT-R®. This 300-hp powerhouse exhilarates from idle to redline.
Xtronic CVT® (Continuously Variable Transmission)
Forget everything you ever knew, and everything you ever heard, about Continuously Variable Transmissions. Engineered for both enthusiast and economist, Maxima's CVT features dynamic step shifting, wider gear ratio coverage, and an adaptive shift controller. The result: more distinctive shift points, a more connected, spirited driving experience, and increased fuel economy.
Drive Mode Selector (Sport and Manual Modes)
Put the Drive Mode Selector into Sport and you'll sharpen throttle response, steering feel, and transmission tuning for a pulse-raising ride. The system even adjusts Maxima®'s available Active Sound Enhancement (ASE), bringing in a more purposeful engine note into the cabin – music to any enthusiast's ears.
18" Aluminum-Alloy Wheels
Maxima® performs on a set of 18" aluminum-alloy wheels with a machine-finish and are fitted with P245/45VR18 tires for optimal handling and traction.
Signature LED Lights
Up front, the boomerang-shaped headlights feature a captivating LED signature line that stays illuminated at all times. In back, LEDs also accent the wraparound taillights, and "4DSC" is embossed in the lamp housings, front and rear – a subtle reminder of what the Maxima® is all about.
Taillights with integrated LED signature
A wraparound boomerang LED signature in the taillights gives Maxima® another touch of signature style at night.
"Floating" Roof Appearance
One look at Maxima's "floating" roof appearance and the aeronautical influence is clear. The A, B and C-pillars meld seamlessly into the glasswork so the roof appears to hover over the cabin, inspired by the canopy of a fighter jet.
Fog Lights
They look great but, more than that, they help increase your visibility in foggy conditions. Integrated into the bumper for a factory-installed look, the white lenses give a low, wide projection of light.
NissanConnectSM with Navigation featuring Apple CarPlay™
Includes an 8" multi-touch-screen, Voice Recognition, maps with voice-guided turn-by-turn directions, and Bluetooth® hands-free calling and text messaging assistant. Apple CarPlay™ is a smarter way to use your compatible iPhone® in the car. CarPlay™ takes many of the things you want to do with your compatible iPhone® while driving and puts them right on your car's built-in display. [*]
7.0" Color Advanced Drive-Assist® Display
The 7" display keeps key information as close as a glance so you can access the tech you need at every turn. From available turn-by-turn directions to caller ID or safety features, the Advanced Drive-Assist® Display lays it all right before your eyes – helping to minimize time looking away. [*]
Two Illuminated USB Connection Ports
Kick back and listen to music from one of the two illuminated iPod®/USB connection ports [*]
RearView Monitor
Backing up made easy, with the Maxima's RearView Monitor. When you are in Reverse, a discreet color camera mounted on the rear of the vehicle helps you see what's directly behind you, using the screen in front of you. [*]
Remote Engine Start System with Intelligent Climate Control
Whether it's a hot day or an icy night, the cabin of your Maxima® can be waiting for you at a pleasant 77°, thanks to the Remote Engine Start System with Intelligent Climate Control. With this available feature, you can defrost the windows, potentially even heat up your steering wheel from up to 160 feet away. [*]
Nissan Intelligent Key® with Push Button Ignition
Nissan Intelligent Key® with Push Button Ignition allows you to unlock the doors and start the engine, all without taking the key out of your pocket.
Nissan Advanced Air Bag System
The Nissan Advanced Air Bag System has front air bags with seat belt and occupant-classification sensors. In addition, Maxima® features front seat-mounted side-impact supplemental air bags, and roof-mounted curtain side-impact supplemental air bags with rollover sensors. [*]
Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) with Traction Control System (TCS)
To help you respond to a potentially harmful situation, VDC helps you maintain your steered path. TCS helps reduce wheelspin in low traction situations.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System with Easy-Fill Tire Alert
TPMS lets you know when a tire is low. And Easy-Fill Tire Alert takes the guesswork out of filling your tires, with a beep of the horn when you've reached the correct pressure. [*]
LATCH system (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren)
LATCH is another way we're working to keep children safe. The LATCH system lets you secure LATCH-compatible child restraints in the second row without having to use seat belts or a locking clip.
Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System (Alarm)
With the Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System, your Maxima® will not operate without the use of a registered key, giving you a sense of safety when you are away from your vehicle.

Rag & Bone Jeans
Emma Stone in Rag & Bone
Actress Emma Stone was spotted outside the studios of the "David Letterman" show in New York last week. She stopped to sign some autographs for her fans as security held umbrellas over her to stop her getting wet.
Emma chose to wear a perfect fitting pair of Rag & Bone dark wash skinny jeans with a cream sweater and purple sling backs. I think the fit of these jeans is amazing on her and they really flatter her figure. I still haven't tried Rag & Bone but I seem to like them more and more every day! Buy Rag & Bone online at Rag-Bone.com.

Eva Longoria in Rag & Bone
Eva Longoria was seen heading to hairstylist, Ken Paves salon in LA before heading to a studio in Culver City. Between traveling with her boyfriend, Eduardo Cruz, filming Desperate Housewives and taking pole dancing classes, it seems like Eva has been keeping busy this summer!
I love Eva's outfit. I think the combination of her white Rag & Bone pants with her bright orange blouse is really chic for summer and I love the colors together! You can buy Rag & Bone jeans online at rag-bone.com.
Charlize Theron in Rag & Bone
Charlize Theron was seen getting into her car at LAX Airport. She wore her Rag & Bone Skinny jeans in Dover with a Chaser tee and some flats. I really have to try out a pair of Rag & Bone jeans. They have so many amazing washes as part of their collection. Plus they look amazing on Charlize. Then again…what doesn't?
I just think this look is just an amazing casual look. It could be that it is on Charlize and everything fits her really well, but it is just perfect. That Chaser tee is great. I love that she layered the ripped tee over the longer sleeve. I think Chaser should come out with some torn styles for the men. Purchase Rag & Bone jeans from IntermixOnline.
Miranda Kerr in Rag & Bone
Miranda Kerr was spotted arriving for her flight at LAX earlier this month with her son Flynn. She wore a pair of stone washed Rag & Bone jeans as she walked in. Miranda's jeans are always such a great fit on her. They always have such a great cropped length.
I am quite happy to see a celebrity not wearing a pair of the Rag & Bone colored jeans. I think the trend is great, but I think they have so many other amazing washes, like the Dover and Knightsbridge washes. You can click here to purchase Rag & Bone jeans at Intermixonline.

I'm new to WordPress and I was messing around with the settings.
As I was doing this, I noticed that there was an area with two URLs. It read http://www.mywebsite.host.com and I wanted it to go directly to http://www.mywebsite.com, so I changed it and for some odd reason, it won't let me log back in. I'm not really sure what I did wrong, and I'm not entirely sure my password is what I thought it was. I'm currently away from where I have my password written (and will be for a while), so I can't check to make sure. I clicked on "Lost your password?", http://www.mywebsite.host.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword, and it didn't have a page to go to, so all I got was an error.
I'm not really sure what steps to take or what went wrong.
I don't know how to get back in.

The start of school is right around the corner and children will be returning to a setting of education and friendship.
This week's editorial was one of the most difficult we have written.
This week two Newton County young people lost their lives and another took a life, leaving a cloud of sadness over an otherwise sunny time.
The world is a hectic place. Emails follow us home on our phones, communications from others are just 240 characters and a Tweet away and ...
Page 1 of 1
We have said this before but it's worthy of a repeat, the Newton County school Board is about to lose three of its most productive and brightest members.
It's not very often that a community has the opportunity to wrest prime land from a railroad company.
We see and hear every day the bad news that one local business after another is either struggling or closing.
Last week we stated that we were opposed to the efforts of Rep. Doug Holt to introduce a bill that would allow the state of Georgia to interfere with the decisions of local communities in regards to land issues, specifically Newton County and Social Circle.
The state should not be in the business of annexing or de-annexing land from one municipality in order to give to another municipality, all because of the whims of some elected official.
During the last two weeks there have been two tragic incidents involving stalking that have resulted in the loss of life.
Last week a beautiful, vivacious young woman - Audrey Atkinson - was gunned down unmercifully by a jilted boyfriend, who later took his own life. The death of the couple leaves their toddler son an orphan.
A year ago we rode through the Walker's Bend subdivision off Ga. Highway 81. At best, it was a sad sight to behold with home after empty home.
We had visions of it turning into a community of eyesores as empty houses were starting to fray badly.
Volunteerism is something we feel strongly about at The Covington News.
There were 51 and now there are three - candidates for Newton County Schools superintendent that is.
All three look very promising; you can see their résumés at CovNews.com.
We are pleased to note that the Northeast Georgia Regional Commission, a 12-county planning group that has been working on a year 2035 plan, has recognized the fact that Newton County is a great place to live as it is filled with natural resources and historic areas.
Of course, those of us that live here have known that all along.
The Covington Planning Commission has approved the annexation and re-zoning of the 167 acres of land belonging to Gil Gainer.
This recommendation by the planning commission has been sent to city council for final approval.
Our Newton Rams brought our community some great excitement this winter as they hustled and fought their way to the final four in the state basketball championship.
Even though they lost to Milton, a team built on recruited players in the Atlanta metro area, they never stopped showing a special determination and pride for their community.
The request to build a drag strip in Social Circle was put on temporary hiatus this week as drag strip developer Donnie Clack withdrew his request to build the project - for now.
Our struggling economy has caused the delay of many worthwhile projects in our area. One such plan was the downtown development project, which would have included a new hotel and entertainment facility.
Today's paper includes 44 pages of legal notices; they reflect the smashed dreams of homeowners, business owners, folks who have lost their only means transportation and other struggling individuals and families.
We are approaching the second year of this type of loss in Newton County.
Here in Newton County, we have experienced the very lowest of the current economic malaise that has swept the nation.
The gloom and despair can be seen on faces throughout the community.

Adam & Eve goes a bit kinky - and fans will love it!
Cherubic secretary Haley Paige can't stop masturbating at work, so she's sent for obedience training -complete with ropes, paddling and ball gags.
This is a somewhat oral-oriented feature, so look for trainer Vincent Vega getting a b.j. from a blonde Brit as Haley solos in the opener, and later, Haley, Carmen Luvana and Julie Night go down on Vincent and Tony Tedeschi in a faux bathroom.
Carmen gets the best boy/girl action, essaying mish and doggie with Tommy Gunn, and, later, her very first anal with Vincent. Haley gets her own anal share with Tommy and Reno before a mostly oral orgy finale.

Is there any high level literature for mid professional programmers for Unity? There are a lot of tutorials for beginners, but I can't find anything about main API, pipeline or engine architecture. Recommend, please!
closed as too broad by Byte56♦ Nov 4 '13 at 17:54
There are either too many possible answers, or good answers would be too long for this format. Please add details to narrow the answer set or to isolate an issue that can be answered in a few paragraphs.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
I've been collecting some resources and hope to one day write up something sensible on the architecture but for now I can dump some of my links:
Nurturing Large Projects http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9aeNtKKXeo
Pretty good introduction to creating and maintaining a larger project in Unity. They definitely take some shortcuts and overuse Singletons etc. but it's good for getting a base level of knowledge. They also provide the slides and a good list of further reading.
50 Tips for Working with Unity (Best Practices) http://devmag.org.za/2012/07/12/50-tips-for-working-with-unity-best-practices/
Continuing... When you're dealing with Unity, the underlying architecture for most of the things you're doing is component-based programming. You create GameObjects that have their behavior separated into discrete components like Collider, Rigidbody, Transform. There are some good books and blog posts about that. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1901251/component-based-game-engine-design http://cowboyprogramming.com/2007/01/05/evolve-your-heirachy
Pretty much all of these are great practices that will help you figure out how to work out some practical parts of the architecture by yourself.

When Passion for Movies, Technology Collide
Long before red envelopes stuffed with DVDs started showing up in Bay Area mailboxes, a video-rental store in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood was the go-to spot for local cinephiles.
That store, Le Video, and many others like it are now struggling as their audiences opt for cheaper, more convenient options, many of which, like Netflix Inc., emerged from nearby Silicon Valley.
Passion for movies run deep in the Bay Area, a region with film festivals devoted to everything from oceans to "disposable" movies shot on cellphones and other cheap cameras. But locals also are among the most avid early adopters of technologies. The Bay Area has long been the best market for Netflix, the Los Gatos company whose says its service was used in 27% of the region's households during last year's third quarter, compared with 14% for the rest of the country.
The rise of Netflix, and especially its newer streaming movie service that lets subscribers watch videos instantly online, has put growing financial pressure on independent stores like Le Video around the U.S., even as chains like Hollywood Video and Blockbuster shut many locations. For the past year, Le Video has operated in the red, and it broke even for the prior seven years only because its founder and owner, Catherine Tchen, didn't pay herself anything, she says.
Although Ms. Tchen says she has no plans to close the store in the "short to medium future," she acknowledges that Le Video is having a hard time. "Netflix is the demise of the video store," says Ms. Tchen, a native of Paris who first started renting European films in Beta tape format out of a camera shop in the Inner Sunset in 1980.
"When consumers have a better choice, they take it," says Netflix spokesman Steve Swasey. "No one likes to see anyone get hurt, but in business the better ideas win and old paradigms fade away."
Le Video, a 4,000-square-foot shop near Golden Gate Park with upward of 60,000 titles available for rent, is trying to adapt. The store recently lengthened its rental periods to reduce the hassle of returns. Ms. Tchen also made management changes to improve Le Video's service after some former staffers—"movie snobs," she says—developed a "flip attitude" with customers.
She also is expanding the inventory of specialty films at Le Video, which features sections on Quebecois, Algerian and Swiss movies. Ms. Tchen also plans to start a Netflix-like DVD mailing service.
Still, Le Video needs more customers like Mike McCarthy, an information-technology manager who goes to Le Video a few times a month even though he and his family sometimes watch streaming videos from Netflix. "It just seems like more of an event with the kids to go somewhere and select a movie" rather than choosing one from home, he says.
Stuart Skorman, a Bay Area Internet and retail entrepreneur, has seen the struggles of video stores up close. In 1998, he sold a business that was a precursor to Netflix called Reel.com to Hollywood Video for $100 million. That deal included a large video rental store in Berkeley, also called Reel.com, which Mr. Skorman attempted to acquire last year when Hollywood Video shut down all its stores.
He was unsuccessful and the Reel.com store is no more. Still, Mr. Skorman believes rental stores with loyal followings in vibrant neighborhoods will survive. "There's a community element to it," he says. "You don't have that online."

The Swimsuit
"I always think the chicest women around a pool are those in sporty one-piece swimsuits - and Sweaty Betty's range of technically sound and very flattering styles are the best way to both burn calories doing laps and lounge in the sun. Then, for lunch, harness some California spirit and wear the board shorts as a cover up – envy will ensue."

Expiration Date
The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.
Shipping Weight:?0.18 lbs (0.08 kg)
Shipping Weight
The Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width & height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

This product seems all natural without any chemicals or other garbage in it. I have been using it already now for about 3 months. What I have noticed is that it does clean the hair, it leave it feeling soft. In addition I have new hair growth which I never expected. The new hair growth is very slow though, do not expect any miracles. I am almost completely bald on top and it has been that way for man years, so I think many of my follicles have died off, but I have some new hair growth after two months of using the product. I had used Nioxin for nearly 20 years prior to using Andalou products. After looking at the Nioxin lables I was astounded by how much garbage they put in their products. Bad customer service, bad product and expensive. Nioxin seemed to have worked for many years by not letting to much hair fall out, but what damage it did to my hair is unknown. I think 20 years is way too long. Andalous is natural and cheaper than Nioxin. Their customer service is also more friendly. The Age Defying Scalp Intensive, small bottle, should be used sparingly. A few drops is enough. They even told me that. And it leaves my hair ungreasy, where as the Nioxin follicle booster was oily and made my hair stick to my scalp. Andalou is completely different. In addition, for those of you who understand Nioxin, if you change shampoos usually you will have a shedding period, with Andalou, I did not experience any shedding, as a matter of fact, I also notice less or about the same amount of hair in the shower drain, so fear not to at least give it a try. Most shampoos have all kinds of garbage in them that should not be put on your scalp. It makes me sick about what they put in them. I was very very happy to have found Andalou products and after using them, have nothing but good things to say. So fear not, give it a try!
Dont judge its small quantity, best hair serum/tonic!!!

Read many good reviews and decided to try, instantly bought 2 bottles. And i am still on my first bottle. Effects of it is simply not within my imagination. I use quite a few hair treating tonic or serum or ... And this bottle is the only one that satisfies me so well in terms of effects and good price. It doesnt contains alcohol that makes any part of scalp and hair to feel dry. And best, you dont feel sticky with it too, smell is so minimal that it is off before you may even realize. As days go by (not weeks), my scalp significantly become less oily (I live in high humidity Singapore), notice more thin black hairs growing out of my scalp too. Its like just this alone improves my whole scalp that l just must try the entire series for my hair! Bought the 3 piece kit and eager to try soon!!!
It works

zero effect!
Good product
Posted by Reviewer1522944 on Nov 23, 2015
I use this product for a very dry scalp which leads to hair loss, made worse by medication and dry Arizona air. While I can't speak to whether this product actually stimulates hair follicles, it IS the one product I can use on my fine, curly hair twice a day that moisturizes my scalp but does NOT destroy my hairstyle. (Curlies will understand this!) Both the formula and the pointed bottle tip are key. I wish that it wasn't so pricey as I use more than "just a few drops" at a time, but I'll continue to use this as I haven't found better.

How Do These People Remember How To Breathe?
Bookstore, Retail | Rockford, IL | Uncategorized
(Older lady comes in, doesn't know me, yet decides to make me intimately knowledgeable about her husband's surgery; she eventually runs out of steam when I don't respond and looks around at the books on the shelves)
Lady: "I like books."
Me: "Good! Anything you're looking for?"
Lady: *ignores my question* "I saw on TV that books are good to have because they make your house look nice."
Me: *barely stifling a smile* "Really? I heard they're also good to read."
Lady: (Evidently, my comment goes right over her) "And you can use them to prop up the bed."
(Her husband buys books, and then swiftly escorts her out)

This plugin is great, and works fine with Widget Logic, but as of the latest versions of WP/ZigWidgetClass, it is not compatible with WP Widget Cache: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-widget-cache/
If Widget Cache is installed & activated, the CSS classes in ZigWidgetClass are ignored when Widgets are displayed on the site (but they do show up the in Admin Widget screen panels)
Perhaps the author could check this out? Until now, the 2 plugins played nicely together.
Many thanks from all us WP devs!
