Rainbow babies. Remembering our angels, riding the rollercoaster and hoping for little rainbows and sunshine.(1000 Posts)
An angel in the book of life wrote down our babies births. And whispered as she closed the book...too beautiful for this earth.
Fingers crossed for rainbows and BFPs for everyone!
Snowdrop: I remember wishing I could fast forward my life 6 months so the pain wouldn't be as bad. I longed for the day I wouldn't wake up each day and relive the events of that awful day. The doctors face the day we went to the hospital will be engraved in my mind forever. He didn't have to say it.........
It does get easier though and during those early dark days I never thought it would. Time definitely helps. Another mistake I made was cutting myself off from my 2 best friends. I just felt like they didn't understand how much I was suffering and I resented that and just hid myself away. I would make constant excuses not to do anything.......life was marching on but my world had fell apart the day my baby boy died. It was only when one of them came round and started to cry I realised how much they were missing me and things are a lot better.
Time is a great healer, I hope my little stories are helping, if not.....feel free to tell me to shut up!!!!
Ok gonna hit the shops for bread and milk while everyone in the Babyh household is still asleep.
Thinking of all the growing rainbows. Also thinking of the mums who are holding their rainbow babies at last xxxxxx
Angel, Little and Blizy big hugs to you xxxx
Hope the day is kind.
Thinking of us all and apologies to anyone I've missed xxxxxx
Sending love to everyone. So proud of my beautiful Mia. So honoured to be friends with you all as Mother's Day is nearly here. So proud of all our amazing children, angels and rainbows alike. xx
Love to everyone for tomorrow, I'll be thinking about us all and our children. You are all such amazing Mothers, and amazing friends too. Last Mothers day we chose Merryns name, and went on a boat trip to watch dolphins, she wriggles inside, this year she is in my heart instead. Xx
Also wanting to wish everyone SO much love on this Mother's Day. Each and every mummy on this thread has demonstrated to me the true strength of motherhood - you're all amazing. Thinking of all our wonderful children today. And, as ever, so glad to be a mummy to the most beautiful little girl I've ever seen. She is my inspiration. Love you, little poppet Xxx
Much love to everyone! X
Hello everyone! I'm sorry I'm so crap at keeping up these days. I've scanned the thread and can't remember enough details, but Fan, special lady, big hugs from me! So pleased for you and praying so hard.
I just wanted to come back on here today - tomorrow will be 2 years since Thea died. Wednesday will be her second birthday. My little love, my first baby. She was so perfect and so special. My little star-baby.
Thank you too, I will light a candle for Thea. Two years is too long! Next month it will be two years for Ophelia aswell.
How are you fan?
Much love too
It will be 2 years for Sterre in June.
blue I'm ok, 7 weeks wednesday. I'm getting there one day at a time. I have moments of utter craziness where it doesn't feel real or that it will stick and others where I think of the future and my second baby. God that feels so strange to say, second baby.
Evening all:
Too: Ah nice to hear from you. I will be thinking of Thea tomorrow x
Also hugs to Fan and Blue.......sorry its been almost 2 long years since you held your babies.
Hope everyone managed to get through Mothers Day ok I was thinking of you all.
My Sil was round yesterday and she is due in a few weeks. She announced that she has bought the exact same pram I bought for my beautiful boy, same colour and everything......complete with the Maxi Cosi car seat. It wasn't a mistake because I know she knew I had it........ I had a good old cry about it today.......of all the pushchairs available why pick mine!! I can remember her admiring it when I bought it so even if she had sent a polite text asking was it alright I think I might have took it a bit better............
Oh well I've had my moan and I'm off to bed now!!
Night everyone xxxx
Thinking of you and MrToo today Too and of course little Thea. Two years too long - hope the day is gentle on you.
Grrr to your SIL babyh do some people just not possess the empathy gene??!
Too sending all my love. How wonderful it would be if Thea was with you... I hope you and DH pass through these days as easily as possible, and I'm sure you have planned some wonderful ways to celebrate and remember. Thinking of you, and of her xx
babyh Oh love. What a thoughtless, thoughtless woman. And I can't really quite believe she's chatting to you about which pram she's chosen, let alone that she chose exactly the same one. I presume this is your 'nasty' SIL as opposed to your nice one? Really sorry you had to go through that, and will have to see her with the pram in the future... Huuuuge hugs. How are your grandad and MIL? Any news on progress with A's headstone?
fan big waves at you - I did a massive when I read your phrase 'my second baby'. I can't tell you how much I hope that this is it, baby number two on the way xx
wtw how are you doing lovely, you must feel so so busy and tired being back at work - plus I saw on FB you'd been so poorly - argh! Feeling any better now?
snowdrop I think you said you were going on holiday this week for your birthday. I won't wish you a 'happy' birthday, but I hope you are glad to go away, and that you and DH can use the time to draw closer to each other and to remember your lovely daughter xx
AFM I start my IVF cycle tomorrow. Had a scan today, and my consultant walked past and said hello while I was in the waiting room. I got home to find he'd emailed me, saying he hadn't wanted to stop and chat while others were there, but he hoped I was ok, and that he'd checked with my nurses and was glad things were starting. Little things mean a lot, don't they! I've been
a whimpering mess talking about E with the nurses, which is both nice, and important... they have all been so sad for us, and seem to have understood that I'll need kid-glove-handling during this process - however many times we may need to do it. Everyone really seems to be doing their best to help us so far, so I'm pleased about that.
Much love to everyone else too - esp thinking of angel and little today xxx
Too, thinking of you, Mrtoo and of course Thea. X
TOO... Two years is far too long. Thinking of you all today.
KLEINE... I'm glad that you are being looked after by kind people, it does make a huge diference. I'm glad your Ivf is beginning, but it must be so difficult for you to be so consumed by the process. I hope you can catch the first cycle and don't have to go through it again (unless you choose to).
11 months today we met Merryn, and next month will be her birthday. I can't in any way believe its been almost a year. She'd be so big, and so strong by now...
Happy 2nd birthday angel Thea, love to the too family.
Still thinking of you fan and keeping you in my prayers xx
I am also very unexpectedly pregnant again despite having a coil in!! 10 weeks on thursday so that must be around 3 weeks ahead of you fan? And so it all begins again..............
Thank you everyone. It means so much to me that you remember Thea too.
Razz, congratulations! Wow! Wishing you a healthy easy pg that passes in a flash.
not jealous at all or strongly considering a bash at ttc tomorrow
razz amazing news, congrats. This has made me smile, we will be pg together, it feels like its meant to be. Yep 3 weeks ahead of me.
too my candle is burning bright for Thea!
Sending love to Thea, too and MrToo today.
kleine your doctor sounds lovely.
fan keep on with the mantra!!
razz fab news!!!
babyh <sigh and grrr> at your thoughtless SIL.
whatever hope you are all better soon!! also poorly with a heavy cold, although it was MrMia and lovely friends who did a half marathon for Mia's Wood on the weekend - I was just cheer squad. They raised over £3000! (and the pressure is now on for the ladies to perform equally well...)
Finn isn't going to sleep tonight. 3rd feed since 6pm. He has developed a really cross scream when he isn't picked up or cuddled fast enough. Hmm. I don't want to encourage it, but he is very loud and persistent if I ignore him!
razz congratulations!! What a wonderful surprise. <makes mental note to try the coil as a method of conceiving, if the IVF doesn't work out > And so lovely that you and fan have such similarly-timed pregnancies! Now you can spend the next seven-ish months freaking out together before you meet your little ones
green sending you and Merryn lots of love. Unbelievable, that's it's almost a year. Really, just unbelievable. Time plays some very funny tricks these days.
How are you doing - and I hope the nightmares are receding? It can't be too long now until your next scan. I think of you often xx
too still thinking of you and Thea, as well xx
mias I hope Finn eventually went to sleep the other night! He really does sound like he is developing quite a character - that's so wonderful. And judging by the screaming as you describe it, perhaps he's going to be as loud and proud as his big sister
And just wanted to say, elly, also thinking of you - just a few little weeks to go... Hang on in there...
Hi, I wondered if I could join? My first baby was stillborn at the beginning of September last year, can't actually believe it has been 6 mths already, my emotions are still pretty much up and down on a daily basis (and when I say up I'm sure all you ladies understand that I really mean less bad). Husband and I are currently ttc, which is difficult. We both desperately want a baby, but dtd can be trickywhen you don't really feel like it. It is nice to read the posts of other ladies who are now pg again, congratulations razz and fan, I really hope the next 7mths pass quickly for you. X
Hello again everyone! Lots of new people and old ones too, I've come back to MN after a long break, missed you all. Ella is now 13 months, can't quite believe that. Disabled my profile for a while as I've just found out that I'm pregnant again! Bit of a shock as I had en early scan yesterday after having pain and they saw 2 sacs!
Only about 5 weeks so anything could happen, as we all know, but bloods came back at 4700 hcg. I'm going for another blood test in the morning to make sure they've doubled at least and then back for another scan in 2 weeks. Certainly quite a surprise.
Now to attempt a catch up!
Littlestar so sorry to hear of your loss, I remember those early days well and it was almost unbearable. My daughter Scarlett was stillborn in Dec 2010 at 37 weeks.
Fan lovely news that you're pregnant, massive congratulaions!
Too happy 2nd birthday to Thea, so sorry I missed it
Razz Congratulations on your pregnancy too!
green almost a year (hugs), Scarlett would have been 2 in December.
We haven't decided on a headstone yet, one of the hardest things ever, I want it to be perfect for her.
Thank you cheese, congratulations on your news, something magical about twins. Im sorry about the loss of Scarlett, but what a beautiful name. I'm sure whatever you choose for a headstone will be right for you and Scarlett but I totally understand the feeling that it needs to be perfect xx
Welcome to LITTLESTAR...I'm sorry you need to find us, but glad that you have. If you like, we'd love to know more about your baby? (but only if you want to). Six months is still very early on, and I agree ttc can be a strain. I hope it happens quickly for you both.
I have two boys already, aged 10 and 5, and had my little girl, Merryn, in April last year. She survived for six days, but in the end the tumour she was born with won the fight, and we had to say goodbye. I miss her terribly. I am lucky enough to be 16 weeks with my fourth child. I've also had three MCs, so it's still early days! These ladies have got me to this point, I'm not sure where I'd be without them!
CHEESE!! Congrats! Twins, that's really amazing! (I know it's really really early too, and I will simmer down now, but it IS amazing, isn't it)?!
KLEINE, how are you lovely lady? Have the hormones gone crazy yet? One day at a time.... (But I wish it could skip forward and you didn't have to go through this bit).
Sorry not to say hi to everyone, we are mid crisis.
My mum has just been taken to hospital in an ambulance, with a possible spinal fracture. I'm on here to calm myself for a bit so I can be 'normal' for the boys.
It's been a crazy crazy day. I also had the 16 wk MW appt, which was hard anyway, and then she couldn't find the HB, and she kept wanting to stop, and I was crying and begging her to keep trying... Which thank god she did and found it, but I really thought the worst.
oh well, hopefully mum will have only pulled a muscle or something. I don't know what happens if it's serious, best not think about that right now! DPs racing back from London. (he's always racing to and from london it seems). My little boy is convinced she will die. But she won't, so although horrible, it's good for him to learn people usually don't die in hospital. I'm going to go and feed them cake and curl up in front of the tv with them.... Sorry for the ramble!

Pittsburgh (Jun. 27)
Attorney Joseph Statfield, former president of the Allegheny County Bar Association, was today named by Governor John S. Fisher to the place vacated on the bench of the Allegheny County Court of Common Pleas by the death of Judge Josiah Cohen on June 11th.
A member of the B'nai B'rith, Temple Rodef Shalom, and other organizations, Statfield has gained an enviable reputation as a corporation lawyer here. He will hold office until elected or his successor chosen in the elections in the fall of 1931.
In 1914 Statfield was appointed city solocitor by Joseph G. Armstrong, former mayor, but refused the office because of his law practice.

Turnout in Alachua County drops off from 2008
Published: Tuesday, November 6, 2012 at 10:49 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, November 6, 2012 at 10:49 p.m.
Seventy-three percent of registered voters in Alachua County voted in Tuesday's presidential election, compared with 81 percent in 2008, according to Pam Carpenter, Alachua County supervisor of elections.
The drop-off came even though 8,224 more people were registered to vote in this election. A total of 164,970 people voted in this election, compared with 156,746 in 2008.
On Tuesday, President Barack Obama got 58 percent of the votes, while former Gov. Mitt Romney got 40 percent. In 2008, Obama got 60 percent of the votes, compared with 39 percent for Republican John McCain.
Carpenter said she had more than 32,400 requests for absentee ballots this year, and 27,000 of those were returned. "This was a record number requested and a record number returned," she said.
In 2008, there were 27,000 requests for absentee ballots, with 23,000 returned.
More than 39,000 Alachua County residents voted during the eight-day early voting period, compared with 53,000 who did so during the 14-day early voting period in 2008.
Statewide, 4.5 million people, or 38 percent of the electorate, had already voted before Election Day this year. Florida has more than 12 million registered voters.

Rochester NY (SPX) May 01, 2014
Streaming jets of high-speed matter produce some of the most stunning objects seen in space. Astronomers have seen them shooting out of young stars just being formed, X-ray binary stars and even the supermassive black holes at the centers of large galaxies.
Theoretical explanations for what causes those beam-like jets have been around for years, but now an experiment by French and American researchers using extremely high-powered lasers offers experimental verification of one proposed mechanism for creating them.
"This research is an example of how laboratory experiments can be used to test mechanisms that may produce what we observe in space," said Eric Blackman, professor of physics and astronomy at the University of Rochester and one of the co-authors. Blackman explains that he and his collaborators wanted to recreate conditions in the lab that lead to jets in space becoming collimated - or beam-like - rather than diverging.
Theory and computational simulations had suggested the possibility that jets might be created by "shock focused inertial confinement." Blackman adds that the experiment "confirms that this particular mechanism is viable, even though other effects are likely to also be taking place."
In their results, the researchers show evidence of the "shocks" predicted by theory, and which give the mechanism its name. These shocks are surfaces in space where there is a sudden change in the density, speed, and direction of a flow. According to theory, which is consistent with the new experiment, they are what cause the beam-like nature of the jets to form.
In the paper published in Physical Review Letters, and highlighted as an editor's suggestion, the researchers explain how they used the laser laboratory facility, LULI, at the Ecole Polytechnique in France, to recreate these space jets. Collaborators at the University of Chicago supplied a sophisticated computer code FLASH that they developed and adapted to help analyze the results.
"We have focused a very energetic laser beam on a tiny iron target - a little thinner than a human hair," explains Alessandra Ravasio, who led the experiment. "In this way we can create a supersonic plasma flow."
With nothing to prevent the resulting iron plasma from spreading out, it would flow quasi-spherically from the target. In order to see the effects of a surrounding wind, the researchers generated another lighter, supersonic plasma from a plastic ring surrounding the central target.
"The novelty of this experiment is in the way we spatially distribute the laser energy, with a central dot generating the iron flow and a outer ring incident on the plastic," adds Ravasio. "In this way we could create a nested geometry and study the interaction between the two flows."
The researchers found that the interaction of the two plasmas sharply collimates the iron plasma flow. That is, rather than spreading out in all directions, the iron flow emanates primarily along a single direction. The experimental data showed that a shock wave is generated in this interaction, which helps the momentum and inertia of the plastic outer wind to collimate the inner iron flow into a jet.
The experiment is an example of laboratory astrophysics, a rapidly growing area of high energy density physics that requires the collaboration of astrophysicists, experimental plasma physicists and computational physicists. It is a field in which researchers at the University of Rochester and at the Ecole Polytechnique are involved on multiple fronts.
The team of collaborators also included R. Yurchak, A. Pelka, T. Vinci, M. Koenig, and A. Benuzzi-Mounaix from the Ecole Polytechnique, France; S. Pikuz from the Joint Institute for High Temperature RAS in Moscow, Russia; E. Falize and B. Loupias from CEA-DAM-DIF, France; and M. Fatenajad, P. Tzeferacos and D. Q. Lamb from the University of Chicago.

Live from Berlin screening on 2 Dec in London
We're pleased to announce an encore screening of The Best of Keane: Live from Berlin on Tuesday, 2nd December at Genesis Cinema in London E1.
Comments (14)
Happy Birthday Tommy My Love! Wish you the best, enjoy each minute of your special day... never stop making the most amazing music in the world. It's been 8 years now that I know keane and cherish every moment listening to your perfect songs and beautiful voice. Love you so much Marielle, Israel.
Please consider a release on Blu-ray / DVD!!!
Why do you don't come to Brazil, anymore?
Hi Guys: Para no olvidarme, ya paso un año de su desvinculaciòn y la verdad me da mucha nostalgia. No verlos en Londres ni en Buenos Aires, en el Pesonal Fest, y recuerdo en ^2007 cuando nos visitaron por primera vez, y la despedida en 2013. Mas triste en Berlin verlos despedirse abrasarse y nosotros todo conmovidos porque la banda de buenos chicos ya no lo veriamos, por un tiempo tal vez... o jamas. Depende ya de Uds. nosotros seguimos a la espera de volver a rencontrarlos en un estadio, un Festival en Bs. As. o en Londres, NY, donde sea, donde se presenten ahi estare/remos, como en el 2003! Saludos y un hasta pronto...

The Queensland Government says there has been some confusion about a policy to double the state's agricultural output by 2040.
Deputy director-general of Queensland's Department of Agriculture, Beth Woods, says the plan is not just about increasing the amount of farm land across the state, but rather increasing the productivity of existing land.
"We're talking about a doubling of the overall sector, but we know the opportunities won't be the same for all areas," she said.
"The sorts of initiatives we have in this strategy look at the ways government can make it easier to do business.
"We have a big emphasis on red tape reduction and we're looking at how we can streamline and simplify farming decision making.
"Then we're looking at thing like research and development and how to improve technology."
Dr Woods says the State Government does not plan to subsidise any farming sectors in the process.
"I don't think that's what farmers want," she said.
"What farmers want is the opportunity to have profitable and productive businesses and we're looking to try and create the conditions where they can do exactly that."

Son Disowned And Beaten By Parents For 'Choosing' To Be Gay [VIDEO-NSFW]
It's heartbreaking when the people you trust turn their back on you, especially when that person is your parent.
It's heartbreaking when the people you trust turn their back on you, especially when that person is your parent.
A brutal crime was caught on camera and now police need your help identifying the attackers.
Some police officers in the Bronx are in a lot of trouble, after a video went public showing them beating down some guy on the street. The cops saw the guy throw a bag of crack on the ground so they started kicking and hitting him. They've been placed to other duties while the incident is being investigated. Check out the video after the jump.
The incident occurred at at McDonald's in Manhattan's Greenwich Village, which locals say has a reputation of attracting unruly customers. It began when a customer slapped the cashier, who is a convicted felon. He retaliates, the two girls jumped the counter and the cashier, Rayon McIntosh, began beating the girls with a metal rod.
There are two videos after the jump; the first is from New York TV station WPIX, and it's safe for work and safe for all ages, while the second is the original cellphone video which is rather graphic and probably not suitable for for work.
As the kids are getting ready to head back to school, many will be asked "What did you do this summer?" These kids will be able to say "I beat up a cop!"
Check out the fun after the jump!

The Japanese whaling fleet is said to have called off its Antarctic hunt early after the factory ship Nisshin Maru was tracked down by Sea Shepherd conservationists.
Sea Shepherd's leader, Paul Watson, said the Nisshin Maru was steaming north last night, far from its whaling grounds, weeks before the usual season's end.
Fleet security ships had dropped away from the group's long-range ship, Bob Barker, and were also headed back to Japan, Mr Watson said.
"What with the bad weather they've been having, too, they certainly lost the whole of March," he said.
It would be the second year in a row that the Japanese government had ended the hunt early under conservationist pressure, although this year the Nisshin Maru was able to stay ahead of the anti-whaling activists for longer.
Under constant pressure from the fleet's security ships, the activists finally came within sight of the factory ship only last Monday at Commonwealth Bay, in Australian Antarctic waters south of Hobart.
Japanese security ships tried to blockade the Bob Barker in what the Institute of Cetacean Research said was a "containment measure" to head off the pursuit of the Nisshin Maru.
The activists said the harassment kept the Nisshin Maru moving and, with unusually bad weather, reduced the number of whales taken.
Mr Watson said the whalers were likely to have taken only about 30 per cent of their quota.

Acne is a term used to define a broader category of conditions than pimples. The term is used to define skin diseases that involve sebum, keratinisation and bacteria. The condition varies from very mild acne to severe acne, which usually involves the cystic variety of the condition.
As for the percentage of the population affected by acne, this is invariably the most common skin condition that you can suffer from (95% of all people will suffer from this condition at some point of their lives). It is also the most stubborn skin condition in some cases.
Let's take a look at some do's and don'ts for an acne prone skin.
Here's what not to do when you have acne:
1. Over washing – dirt and oil are not the only reasons for your acne it is multifactorial so excessive washing and cleaning will not only make your skin dry and dull but it also alters the ph of the skin and will make it more prone to breakouts.
2. Picking and squeezing – touching your face and specifically the areas affected will expose it to more bacteria, and more bacterial exposure can never be good for acne.
3. Over the counter products – using products indiscriminately can play havoc on your skin. Make sure you consult a good dermatologist to find the right products for you.
4. Avoiding moisturizer and sunscreen – avoiding moisturizer and sunscreen is a common habit amongst people suffering from acne which in turn leads to excessive dryness making skin more prone to tanning and acne marks. Consulting your dermatologist will help you find a suitable moisturizer and sunscreen for acne prone skin.
Some home remedies to try:
1. Apple cider vinegar
Apple cider vinegar is a powerful antibacterial that alkalises itself, not only that, it is also an astringent that dries up excess oil and makes it difficult for the bacteria to thrive.
How to use: take pure, unfiltered apple cider vinegar and mix one part with three parts water, take the mix on a cotton swab and apply it on the acne/blemish for 10 minutes once in the night daily.
2. Cinnamon and honey mask
Honey is a natural antibiotic and so is cinnamon and both these ingredients when mixed together, have a synergistic effect that helps you control breakouts.
How to use: mix 2 tablespoon of honey and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon to make a paste and apply on the affected area for 15 minutes.
3. Orange peel paste
Vitamin c is a natural astringent, apart from being that, it also helps in new cell growth and repair and maintenance.
How to use: take two orange peels and mash them in a grinder and make sure you make a thick paste, and apply it on your face for 20-25 minutes.
4. Banana peels
Banana peels contain a substance known as lutein, and this is an extremely powerful antioxidant that reduces swelling and inflammation.
How to use: make a banana peel and rub the inside of it in circular motions on the affected areas. Let it sit for 30 minutes or so and then wash.
Do you have acne that does not respond to treatment? have you tried everything and failed? or do you just want to do the smart thing and get professional help to nip the disease in the bud?
Imagine if you wake up in the morning and first thing you see is a red mark on your face. It can be inflammatory or non inflammatory or could be pimple or acne. Don't panic, it can be cured if you bring some changes in your routine along with the on-going medication.
1. Emergency Acne Kit
Foremost thing that needs to be done, is to get connected with your dermatologist. He/She will guide you about the role of some medications and their usage in day to day to life.
It is not only one thing that contributes to healthy skin and you. It is a combination of good habits which can help you lead a healthy life.
2. Have a clear eating plan
ELIMINATE all high glycemic index foods whose numbers are above 70 such as refined products like pasta, white breads, biscuits, noodles, pizzas. Say "no" to fried cooking methods as well fried food items like chips, pakora(sounds very yummy, trust me its nutritional value is zero). Limit the intake of too much sugar and sugar sweetened beverages, they just add unwanted fat to your lifestyle , ultimately it can add bad effect to your skin in the form of acne, pimples , dull skin etc.
ADD low glycemic index so that it won't spike your blood sugar fast. Add more of home cooked meals made up of whole grains , cereals like used more "atta plus fiber" based options like if you are still craving for bread, opt for multigrain. Try to choose healthy food ingredients.Include 2 to 3 servings of vegetables and fruits in your diet.
ADD Antioxidants like more of vitamin C, E,. Rich sources of vitamin C are oranges, amla, green chilies, broccoli, lemons, papaya, strawberries and some more green vegetables. Nuts, seeds , fish contain good amount of vitamin E.
ADD good fat in your diet - omega 3 fatty acids. They are present in seeds, nuts, various oils like olive oil and mustard oil.
Try to include low fat dairy products in diet. Probiotic curd is a good option as it contains good bacteria which is healthy for your stomach that can help you with skin breakouts.
3. Keep yourself hydrated
Keep sipping water throughout the day. It should not be more or less. The recommended level is 10 -12 glasses in a day. Fluids could be plain water or green tea.This will make your skin supple, clear and free of toxins.
My son is 23 years old but he is suffering from hair loss in such a less age. What could be done to stop hair loss?
Acne or pimples is most commonly seen in teenagers and young adults, just around the time the body is undergoing hormonal adjustments. Thus, acne is not simply just a skin problem, but often an indication of internal bodily disturbances. Of course, there are other combination of aggravating factors at play, like genetics, active sebaceous glands and bacterial organisms that reside within the sebaceous glands.
An otherwise easily treatable condition, acne can result in permanent scars if left untreated, often resulting in low self-esteem, social isolation, depression and even suicidal ideation.
The skin acts as a window to internal disorders and many individuals with acne are found to have internal hormonal problems like polycystic ovary syndromes or insulin resistance syndromes. Females can have associated excessive hair on the chin, hair loss on the scalp, weight gain, menstrual abnormality and infertility.
- Diet does not have a major role in causing acne but cutting down on foods with high sugar content and milk may be useful.
- Certain medications and creams containing steroids can precipitate an outbreak of acne.
- Heavy and greasy cosmetics will aggravate acne.
- Special soaps, face washes, lotions, and so-called unscientific blood purifiers are of little help.
- Acne scars are repaired with newer dermatological technologies and techniques.
Just like with any other medical condition, each individual is different and will require a unique investigation and treatment plan. This is based on many factors like other current medical conditions, climate, age, sex, skin type and variety of acne. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a dermatologist.

I got it! I thought that maybe the tutorial I used installing through the command-line had missed something. I went and popped back in my BT3 Beta cd and right-clicked on the "Install Backtrack" and made a short-cut of it. Looking at the properties on it I saw it was executing this file: /usr/share/slax/BT3.kmdr I copied that file and my installer icon on zip and rebooted with the BT3 Final cd. Put the BT3.kmdr file in the /usr/share/slax folder and my new icon on the desktop. Clicked on the icon and installed just like in the previous distros. Boom! My internet worked. I suppose re-installing via command-line may or may not have worked, but I don't see why the BT community is discouraging using BT as a full time hard-drive install???
This was my experience starting in the Linux community. An OS you learn, is an OS you use. Yes, there are advantages to a live-cd, but it is a little slower and demanding on the cpu resources. I can see it can be more secure in the fact no malware can be written to the CD-ROM, but neither can a new password! If we all go to live cd's/usb's then anyone who can determine we're using Backtrack will have a short google to our user names and passwords! Perhaps if someone really wants to use the live version they could use a tool like "mkdistro" to change the default password/user names. That's just my 2 cents.

Torino v Inter Milan Live
Inter Milan travel to Turin on Sunday to face a Torino team that have had an equally good start to the season as Inter themselves have, with both teams sitting pretty on four points each. Watch the Torino vs Inter Milan live and online, right here on Live Sport Network – the place to be for live football streams.
Inter Milan had a very eventful game last time out when the finally managed to defeat Catania at home, giving Jose Mourinho his first league victory at the same time. All the action occurred a few minutes either side of half-time. Catania took the lead on 42 minutes, Inter equalised a minute later through Quaresma but were then subsequently reduced to ten men following the dismissal of Muntari on the stroke of half time. Three minutes into the second half, ten-man Inter managed to take the lead through Terlizzi; a lead they managed to hold on to for the rest of the game despite being a player light.
With injuries to Balotelli, Stankovic, Jimenez, Chivu, Samuel and Rivas still to contend with, Inter find their squad being stretched to the limit and with a Champions League game away in Greece on Tuesday evening against Panathinaikos to come first, coach Mourinho will have to do a bit of juggling with his team selection.
Home team Torino, for their part, played out a 1-1 draw away to Reggiana in their last league game, so will be hoping for better things against the reigning champions on Sunday. Their current lofty league position will give them some confidence and coupled with Inter's tough start to the Champions League, believe they have a good chance of nicking a result.

"Because nothing has the be true forever. Just for long enough, to tell you the truth."
- T. Pratchett, The Truth
That is why so much attention is directed in science on evidence which seeks to disprove an hypothesis. That produces a definite result which completely eliminates a possible hypothesis. Nothing so definite results from supportive evidence.
Science is not a method used for establishing truth. It is an iterative process used to eliminate competing hypotheses about the truth.
Mark A. Baker
"Hubbard is alive and well. He lives through his
creations." - Purple Rain
"Because nothing has the be true forever. Just for long enough, to tell you the truth."
- T. Pratchett, The Truth
I remain utterly astounded at the degree that all the scientology tech I experienced over a 22 year full immersion career proved to be useless and in every way pointless for me in this real world.
Contact assist: Pain tends to naturally reduce over time, try it, bang your thumb let it heal. A few months after finding my way back to reality I was reassembling a drum brake set on my old Ford, I caught a finger in a ratchet mechanism. I made a point of NOT doing a contact or any other kind of assist once said finger was extracted, I observed that the pain dissipated at the same rate that it would with a contact and the healing rate over the next days was identical. (just so as you know I am making a real comparison, before I was transferred to Finance a year before getting out, I was the Saint Hill Motor Pool Officer. I had been demoted to that WONDERFUL post (I loved that work actually, despite the mad and dangerous schedules and a complete lack of any health and safety provisions, it was frankly a dangerous and an illegal working environment! ) a few years previously. I spent a lot of time pulling out gear boxes, replacing timing gear and other dirty, heavy, hard and rewarding vehicle work, and I hurt, bashed and pinched a lot of fingers.
Tone Scale: Well, I found that sitting down with my love, and going through whatever difficulties we may be facing and dealing honestly and openly and allowing ourselves to feel the full range of angers, resentments, fears, joy, deadness, tears of sorrow openly and without restrains ultimately freeing and I think deeply healing. With Scientology tone stuff it was an avoidance of these emotions that was in play, we had to force a fabricated emotion over the real one because that real one was socially unacceptable, indeed frowned upon in the manufactured scientology play world.
Aberration and bank dramatizations: Again, these things honestly expressed and faced up to with honesty and reality tend to dissipate. I have spent many, many hours with people as they rant and scream or yell and cry and act like babies but tend to come through it cleansed and emboldened. I am not taking about anything like auditing, just working with people having hard time as people have worked with me did and still do. I am not aiming for a perfect state, clear OT or whatever, just a sense of equilibrium, a balance, revivification or a compassion for anyone, whatever it is they 'dramatize'. My niece is bi-polar, we care for her and manage the condition. It is not an 'aberration' or 'dramatization' it is a neurological congenital condition and is dealt with the right kind of medical supervision, patience, care and love for the girl. We try to give her as normal a life as we possibly can. She does as well as can be expected.
Out 2d: I did a show with a bunch of transgendered people a couple of years ago, what a fuck-ink wonderfully eyeopening experience. blew away whatever last vestiges of 'stick up-the-arse' false scientology morality was left haunting me, what a wonderful bunch of mad people they were. Humbling, refreshing. My gay pals at uni, some of the most honest and emotionally mature men I have ever met. Not to mention the weekend party I attended with my partner for a lesbian friend of hers, they had rented a whole hotel for about 60 women for the weekend. My very attractive partner and I were the only 'straight' couple there. I was the only guy. several shaven headed, tattooed, leather wearing 'ladies' tried to pick up my woman, I kind of didn't want to pick a fight with them, they were a lot tougher than me. Diplomacy and a locked bedroom door worked just fine. What great people, what a great weekend, I made some very wonderful friends there.
Dynamics? It is just life around us, why break it up artificially? My day involves myself, my woman, the kids, a menagerie of assorted animals. My University, the car, the bank, taxes, local and government services, whatever international causes I might be involved in with Amnesty or global and environmental causes and on. I just live it, enjoy it, get frustrated with it, deal with it and don't analyze it like that.
Scales and conditions and shit? Why? You deal with stuff intelligently and honestly and efficiently. If I am late with an essay I don't run through a bunch of conditions, I take the points hit and get better organized next time round. Imagine if I tried to apply conditions to my language courses? It would be stupid, I would be adding a whole layer of complexity on top of what I am doing anyway. How daft!
The Complex: Imagine applying scientology tech to an anti-scientology book that did very well indeed for this first time author. No thanks to you 'Dr.' Hubbard. But I suppose I should thank you for giving me all that material. What I would have written though had I never encountered the cult of the fat turd? I know i would have, because I was writing before I joined and stopped for 22 years.
Study tech: I am just about to graduate a four year university degree. I consciously avoided any study tech whatsoever. I have never learned so much and had such a bloody wonderful time doing it. Critical analysis works and it helps people!
Communication? I think I do alright, don't you?
Scientology imposes itself on normal life in a parasitic and leech-like fashion. It dirties and distorts the real world and I can quite honestly say that I simply cannot find anything good about it at all.
So if an ex is not out, then it is either a case of being too scared to trust themselves outside of the ridged confines and control of the cult. I could say they were being cowards, but that would not be true. I cannot in fact say why it is, it puzzles me still and no amount of explanation from people with tech, Hubbard or Scientology sympathies have made any sense to me to date. Those that have left it behind, to me, seem happier, more liberated and indeed more honest that those who hold onto some bit of tech or the indi or freezone. This is just my opinion, just my experience, that is all. I think Christian evangelicals and Muslim fanatics are weird too. I remain puzzled by Catholics, Unitarians and Anglicans. So I suppose it is just bad ol' anti-theist me?

As a WOG at an Admin Tech company, I used to love these things. Where else could you ASK an attractive woman to touch you all over your body, and NOT get written up for sexual harassment? I wanted to learn how to do them, in the vain home that one particularly well-endowed co-worker would injure her chest and need my help.Originally Posted by johnAnchovie;675296[B
A wog co-worker and I did seriously consider kicking each other in the balls just to see what the touch assist would be like.

Service ok The room was too small for 2 grown ups and two extra beds for the kids. Did not look as the photograf on the net
It was good quality accomodation - a good sized room, easy parking. The breakfast in the hotel on the first morning was very good with plenty of choice. We had to have breakfast in the adjacent Rasta motorway restaurant as the hotel was closed for 2 days but we weren't told before hand. The choice was limited and the quality was poor.
Location / Great Staff / Great Breakfast /
The Hotel was conveniently located next to the motorway. The parking space was right next to the entrance. The ventilation in the room and in the bathroom was loud. The air that came through the ventilation system into the room wasn't fresh. I didn't leave the window open during the night, because there was a railway right next to the window and the window could either be opened wide or closed (a bottom hung window would have been nice in the ground floor).
It is very convient and good value for money
Reception staff were great. Located in a Motorway Services are. OK for a short overnight stop, but not a place you'd want to spend a lot of time. The adjacent restaurant shut at 9pm. Due to some refurbishments being undertaken, breakfast was served in an upstairs conference room using disposable plates etc.
The staff are excellent in trying their best to help, and the small library they have helps to pass the time It was too hot...
Really friendly staff both at reception and restaurant, neat room, fairly good menu and food at the hotel's restaurant. The hotel has a pool (did not use it myself though so cannot comment on the taste of water, but the girls in the pool were pretty :-). It's somewhat in the middle of nowhere, so there isn't anything to do within the walking distance. Well, you can walk past the church over the bridge to the village center roundabout that has a small shop and a pizzeria...
The hotel showed excelent service, and was very help full, during the check in.

Norton Metalite Plus R265 abrasive flap wheels with a five-eighths-inch arbor are suitable for a smooth, consistent, chatter-free, low-pressure finish with a uniform rate of cut. Used on stationary or portable sanders, the flap wheel design offers a controlled removal of material, with minimal disruption of surface features. As the flap wheels wear away, they continuously expose fresh abrasive.
Coated abrasives have individual abrasive grains spaced at a predetermined distance from one another. This disc is closed-coat. An open coat covers about 50 to 70 percent of the coated surface with abrasive, for greater flexibility and resistance to clogging than a closed coat, which has 100 percent grain coverage. An open coat allows for longer usage time by clogging less, while a closed coat offers a finer surface finish than an equivalent open-coat abrasive. This disc features a resin bond. Resin bonds have good moisture resistance, are harder and less flexible than glue bonds, and have good heat resistance and grain retention. Resin bonds are useful for abrasive operations with high operating speeds, impact, and sudden loading, as the resin bond is strong and can withstand rough treatment. Use with molded rubber back-up pads, using a hard pad for aggressive cutting, a medium pad for general purpose applications, or a soft pad for contours and fine finishing work.
Aluminum oxide is a widely used abrasive material. It is a durable, wear-resistant grit that works well with soft metals such as brass, as well as ferrous (iron-containing) metals such as stainless steels. Aluminum oxide abrasive grain is chosen for its versatility and can be used on many metals.
Abrasives are used for a variety of applications from shaping a part to fine finishing, depending on the grit size. Low grit numbers like 40 are coarse and are used for removing excess material and shaping a part. High grit numbers like 400 are fine and help to create a smooth surface finish.
Norton Abrasives manufactures a wide variety of sanding, sanding, and polishing abrasives, and has been located in the United States since 1885. In 1990, Saint-Gobain purchased Norton, keeping its manufacturing facilities and offices in the same location. Norton/Saint-Gobain has been recognized as a Global 100 Sustainable Company, as well as earning ISO 9000 and 14001 certification for quality and environmental management standards.

Let's all get a grip. Dealerships are businesses that exist to make a profit, just like your local independent garage. There are pluses and minuses to servicing your car at either, and only each individual can make the decision as to which facility suits him or her the best. Dealerships tend to be somewhat less flexible with respect to costs, since they charge "book" hours for work done (most indies do the same, but will adjust for you if they know you) and are required to use only OEM parts for replacement. The biggest advantage of a dealership is that their mechanics (technicians) are trained through the factory and only service BMW's. This means that they will have the right tools for any job, no matter how esoteric. Most independent shops service a wide variety of cars, and your M3 may sit in a bay alongside a Nissan Altima and a Ford Focus. I have gotten good service from both dealerships and independent garages, but I only go to the latter after I have gotten good recommendations from mechanics I trust and after I have gotten to know the independent shop in question. I also try to do much of the simple work (brake pads and rotors, e.g.) myself.

Dear Will,
There likely are other candidates that others will put forth.
Two I can identify, using your great-grandparents test (and
assuming the House of Gwynedd, or Aberffraw, in Wales meets your
'Royals' test) are Sir Edward Hastings of Elsing (b. bef 22 May 1382;
d. 6 Jan 1436/7) and his first wife, Muriel Dinham (d. bef 1 Jul
1427). The latter is predicated upon the identification by Doug
Richardson of the mother of Margaret de Monthermer, Baroness
Monthermer (d. 24 Mar 1394/5, wife of John de Montagu, Lord Montagu of
Wark) as Margaret de Braose, daughter of Piers de Braose of Tetbury,
Gloucs. and his wife Agnes.

Thrifty christmas(117 Posts)
Hi ya everyone
I am sure I'm in the same boat as many other people this year we no money.
I know I am starting to panic already about Christmas
I like many have been glued to the bargain christmas thread and have bought some small bits already but I can't seem to see the light at the end of the tunnel
I have already told many family members that I won't be able to afford buying them Xmas presents this yearned am checking boot sales, free cycle and nearly new sites
The whole thing is just very depressing
So i wanted to start this thread to get people's ideas ideas or tips so we can all help each other to the best of our ability as I know I'm not the only one in this situation
A problem shared is a problem halved and all that
Last year people gave links where free Xmas decorations and samples that can be used as presents were being given away free.
Links to christmas sites with free downloadable things
Just share anything that is free or very low buget that can be used over the Xmas
Hope this helps
A top tip I was given last year was to wrap things you would have to buy anyway - e.g. pants/toothbrush/deodorant in a stocking.
One thing that has really helped me the last few years, I make a list of christmas grocery type things that won't go off and add two per week to my ordinary shopping delivery.
This week was tinned chesnuts (for the Brussels sprouts) and a bottle of appletiser.
They get hidden in a big cardboard box at the bottom of the linen cupboard.
History has taught me never to include chocolate and sweets, as they never actually make it to Christmas.
I should add that I don't do this for the entire year, August til December only.
That's a great idea Terra, I'm going to give that a whirl.
I try to buy a present for a niece/nephew each month so at Christmas I don't have to find money in one hit.
I also try to pick up a stocking filler for DD when I do the weekly shop. A 50p pack of crayons or a pack of stickers. Never above a couple of pounds, but all stuff she loves.
I've done the same thing for a number of years...chocolates go in high cupboard, hubby much more strong willed than me and I can't reach. Crimbo food shop wise I buy something each week fromseptember so I no longer have the frantic huge food shop. Works brilliantly
MoneySavingExpert has a great website that people update all the time. What about having a clear out on eBay or at boot sales before nice weather ends to get a bit of extra cash put aside?
Terra that's a great idea .. I do it with presents but never thought of doing it with the non perishables
Love it thanks
Hope this thread continues with some great ideas
I'd love to start buying some things in my weekly shop to squirrel away. Anyone care to share a list of things the stock up on?
What about saving stamps for food and drink over Christmas? My DM does this from late summer on. Some of the supermarkets have lovely jewellery and clothing sections too (as well as toiletries.) a fiver a wk would get you £100 by Christmas, if you can spare it with your weekly shop
Can you make anything? Hand made chocolates, cookies, knit something? A lot of the pound type shops have balls of wool.
I also hadn't thought of purchasing some of the Christmas food to put away. Thanks for the tip Terra. It's our first year doing Christmas at home, so would also love some ideas on non-perishables to buy in advance!
Oh, one thing I do is collect holly and pinecones etc(my garden but have collected ftim friends/family before moving out of town) my home decs with plain candles.. Classy and free!
Some of the supermarkets do that 'free voucher' thing if you shop with them beforehand - morrisons did it last year.
Natural thank a lot have been doing boot sales on every week when weather permits
Also sell stuff on eBay I save up all my PayPal money up for the whole year ready for Xmas
Think the family would love a day out looking for pine cones and am gonna look to see if anywhere near me holly is growing that I can nab.
So thank for that
It really is some of the simple ideas that I never think of
I got loads of body shop freebies today in the little pots
never realised they did that , a simple but big find for me today
am gonna give them for a bday ... I hope I can get some more ready for Xmas.
Ooh, what's the body shop freebies?
A lot of the supermarkets and also Superdrug and BHS sell off their last seasons jewellery at half price or less, so that they can get their new seasons stock put out. I got a bracelet for a quid once, you couldn't buy the beads to make it for that. Possible gifts/stocking fillers?
Starting a stock of food and stuff for Christmas: pretty much anything in tins, jars, bottles, packets and dried. If you like to bake you could get flour, sugar, dried fruit etc. in advance. Longlife items in cartons like milk, fruit juices, custard. You can use longlife milk in cooking, e.g. in bread sauce, brandy sauce or custard. Things like stock cubes, cooking oil, ketchup, pickles, soy sauce, curry pastes. I usually get in extra foil and kitchen rolls, and loo rolls too (if you have the storage space it's worth doing and also if you are expecting a lot of guests) Dried pasta and rice are good to have. Alcohol and soft drinks, tea, coffee, hot choc. Biscuits and crackers for cheese, crisps, nuts, snacks, sweet biscuits. Tins of tomatoes, soup, beans, fruit cocktail, chestnut puree etc.
You might want to add in as applicable to your family: pet food, baby food and milk, nappies, toiletries, and cleaning materials, especially something that will get stains off carpets and upholstery! Look out for special offers or vouchers and buy when you've got a bit of spare cash.
Also remember medicines, both prescription and over the counter. Painkillers for all age groups, and get prescriptions in good time before Christmas, don't leave until the last minute.
I find it helpful to plan menus when you know what you're doing for Christmas or how many guests you're having, so that you can be sure of buying what you need for the meals, and also can cook some things in advance for the freezer.
Hope this helps someone!
Body shop freebies ..
I just asked could I try some of a cream or shower gel
And they said they can put some on a little pot to take home ... Love it
I start to meal plan for crimbo...just a general one when I know where we going etc, and then make a shopping list...then start ticking them off, all generally packet stuff, biscuits, drinks, crisps etc
Hubby has set up a small business so we went to makros today and had a little look around, didn't spend to much as I want to price compare but will buy crimbo stuff there in bulk as well
Now to find somewhere to store it all!
Hotukdeals.co.uk has rapidly updated offers all the time, you could get lots of small presents that way.
Don't forget neutral wrapping like silver paper or brown parcel paper. I get my parcel paper from Poundworld, every time I send a parcel I think how pretty it would look with tartan ribbon on it.
Definitely stock up on painkillers, anti histamines, antacids, cystitis remedies etc, if you have to nip out for ibuprofen you just know the only one the local shop will have is nurofen at £4 a pack.
In Sainsbury today while stocks last they had packs of 8 Crayola wax crayons for 25p a pack, would make a nice stocking filler.
Save some cash for just after Christmas then buy next years wrapping paper and cards in the January sales. They are so overpriced in December and they just get thrown away.
Go 'window shopping' for suitable gifts and then await the October sales before parting with your cash. Bear in mind postage when buying gifts, both for ordering online and if you're posting yourself. Small light gifts are best.
Look out for deals on decent wine, Asda have some good ones this week, I used sainsbury's last year to buy oyster bay and prosecco. It felt like a real treat having decent wine and plenty of it.
If catching up with old friends invite them to your house instead of going out for drinks, even if you cater and supp.y the booze it tends to work out cheaper once you take into account taxis, babysitters, overpriced bar drinks and nibbles etc
Finally, gift giving is not a competition, it doesn't matter if you receive something that's bigger, better and more expensive than the gift you gave in return. Just stick to your budget and let other people stick to theirs.
Girls think I will be getting those crayon packs today
I like the brown paper idea for parcels as I like using ribbons and it makes it individual but still cheap.
Terra I got my first hit of non perishable food things for Christmas today
Custard powder ... Simple and sad I know but as you said will save I the long run
I find that at Christmas time, there are a LOT of offers on storecupboard type foods (BOGOFs on mild curry sauce for example, as everyone needs a turkey curry option!) and treats. So while some years I stock up in advance, I tend to try to put a few quid into the stamps for a collection card over the autumn instead and use that for a BIG shop at Christmas with all the offers. (And usually, if you manage to fill the card, there is an extra stamp given to you as well, so for saving 98, you get to spend 100). I feel less guilty doing that, and it means I can also get more bulk offers (like the 5% or 10% off wine if you buy 6 or 12 bottles together that some supermarkets offer).
For gifts, forget about what others are doing. Think of the receiver, what they like and need, and try to find something with THEM in mind. So even if it's small, it's personal. 1 person loves an expensive perfume - can you get a small sample at posh Department stores and give it with a few other travel accessories in a clear pouch as a "travel kit"? Someone else loves outdoor activities - is there anything in the late summer clearances that they'd find useful? Is there anything you can make - like gather blackberries or sloes in autumn and make blackberry liquer or sloe gin (use the cheapest vodka or gin you can get, fill up a big glass container with the berries, a good dollop of sugar on top, cover with the alcohol, shake daily for a week and ignore for as long as poss before bottling in nice small bottles (which you've saved over the autumn too) and putting a pretty label and a scrap of ribbon on). Or do they like home baking or something else, that you could make. Put together hampers of things like a mexican night (chilli mix or fajita makings, some nachos, extra chilli or tabasco sauce, couple of beers and a lime) or whatever from supermarket aisles - based on what they like. If you have any crafty/practical skills, can you make something (knit a scarf, sew an iPod holder, make a "Handy Phone Notes" pad for beside the phone etc).
Don't forget that you'll need heat and energy. Stock up when you see batteries on offer. Think about cheap ways to winter-proof your house (fleeces behind curtains or tinfoil behind radiators to keep heat in the rooms, close off rooms not in need, energy efficient bulbs, remind everyone to turn things off not leave them on or on standby mode if possible, etc).
Instead of expensive outings for Santa or panto etc, find cheap Santa visits locally (there are often free or very cheap ones if you search away from shopping centres). Go for winter walks in parks (maybe feed the ducks with bread otherwise going in the bin - before it's gone beyond use though!) or find free events locally (carol concerts in churches or elsewhere, art gallery events, often local councils have different things on). If you have a car, you could put all DCs in pjs (or not if older), cups of hot milk/hot choc for all and load into the car to drive around and see the local houses that are lit up one night - which can be magical and just costs the petrol!
See if family would be willing to do things differently this year. Instead of everyone gifting to everyone, do a Kris Kringle draw so everyone only buys for 1 but everyone still gets a nice gift. Or you could all agree to do stocking stuffers instead. My siblings and I do a mix - we have a KK draw, and we all get stocking items for everyone else with a 5 limit and free/homemade items are preferred. Instead of a big family event in a pub/restaurant, could a gathering in your or someone else's house work instead with everyone bringing a dish?
Just a few thoughts...

text: Editors' Review+ by: Download.com staff on March 07, 2013 People who are disappointed in the Google Maps Internet interface might want alternatives for viewing maps online. eMaps for Mac allows you to operate a different interface, although the lack of any additional features ultimately makes the program unnecessary. Available as a free trial version, there is an option to buy eMaps for Mac for $10. The trial version had no noticeable limits. The program's small size led to a quick download and, while there was no native installer, it did initiate and start quickly. There were no instructions or support readily apparent. The interface has an intuitive design that is actually similar to that of Google Maps itself. A text bar at the top allows the physical address to be entered. Once located, the map renders quickly and brings up a pop-up box with the street view photo. Buttons at the top of the program allow you to switch between map and street view easily. You can navigate maps and street photos by clicking and dragging an icon, just as with the Internet maps application. The program's operation was smooth overall with no glitches or errors. For people who desire a different look and feel for their Google Maps interface and don't mind paying $10 for it, this rather functional app could be a good solution. read more + Explore Further Satellite Live Maps Sponsored Products Category Category Travel Subcategory Maps Publisher's Description+ From emanuele.t: eMaps is an application that gives you easy access to Google Maps. eMaps provides street maps, satellite and aerial photos, hybrid and terrain views, as well as street-level views of locations in many countries around the world. eMaps combines the power of Google Maps mapping service with the strengths of a native Mac OS X application. Using intuitive, familiar interface elements (menus, toolbar items, system shortcuts, preferences) and technologies like WebKit and the Cocoa framework, eMaps makes Google Maps more responsive, interactive, and fun to use.
