This is a pretty and unique color. A mid-toned mauvey pink base color that is close to MLBB (a bit cooler) with a golden shimmery overlay.
The combination of mauvey pink and golden frost is unique in my collection. Because the frost is gold, I can get away with it (I'm pale yellow/olive and silver frost is bad), and the nearly MLBB base actually makes this totally wearable on a daily basis.
It goes on smoothly, doesn't seem to emphasize flakes, or do major gathering in creases. Wears nicely, good adhesion and isn't too slippery for a Silk Finish lipstick, but won't survive food.

This is WnW 'Breeze' pink sister. Both of these are 99 cent dupes for Mac Eden Rock, High Tea, angel and on and on. I think when I read this is too frosty it's because people are laying down too much product. Try 2 swipes for a healthy Tom Ford Metallic glow. I love this color.

I wanted to love this one. The lip swatches look so good online. But I bought this twice and both times it looked nothing like that on me even though every other swatch looked the same on me. This doesn't have any kind of pink to it when applied...it is straight up gold frost. It is too greasy and slippery to have any good pigmentation so it looks like your lips plus gold frost and honestly it makes me look sickly. I love the gold shimmer and on top of the smokey pink would have looked great....too bad this shade doesn't have the same pigmentation as Cashmere from the same line. It might look good as a lipstick topper but this shade is so greasy I think it would be too messy so I won't be using this.

A pretty coral peachy pink very frosty but that's what makes it pretty. It is like Mac bombshell but better more thicker applies smoother and shows up without having to put10 coats

This lipstick is possibly the one thing I cannot live without. Mascaras come and go, blush fades, and hairspray fails, but THIS LIPSTICK is forever. Well, maybe not forever, I mean it's not suuuuper long lasting, but in my heart, forever for sure! If this is ever discontinued, I will mourn its passing until I pass, and I'm not even kidding.
Let me illustrate the many ways I love WnW Dark Pink Frost:
First - the color. It's the perfect blend of a gorgeous cool toned pink, neither bright and bold nor pale and washed out, just the exact color I wish my lips actually were, with a subtle hint of gold shimmer to keep it from looking too cool. I've been wearing this for about 10 years, and I will say that when the packaging was most recently revamped I think they also added in a bit more multi-tonal shimmer, which I like. It's barely noticeable. This color goes with anything - no-makeup makeup, smoky eyes, winged liner, it's just enough color to bring my lips to life without making them the center of attention.
Second - the formula. It's creamy, silky, and relatively long lasting. I tend to reapply more often than I probably need to, because I like the way it feels so much. I do notice though, that if I don't use something hydrating on my lips underneath (Lip Medex is my go-to) they do dry out in the winter as this is not hydrating enough on its own. Also - it does sometimes leave behind a bit of a pink stain, but I don't mind that, considering I wear this pretty much 99% of the time. And it is gone when I wash my face and remove makeup later anyway, so really it's a non-issue.
Last - the price. At full price it is 99c in CVS and Walgreens where I live. I often get this when it's on sale buy one get one 1/2 off, so I rarely pay full price. And seriously, for what is my favorite makeup product ever, 99c is so great I sometimes can't believe it! I hope WnW makes this color forever and ever, because that's how long I'll be wearing it.

This has a really nice creamy formula. Frosty pinks usually make me look quite washed out, but this one didn't. Really can't beat the price.

Under a buck at the drugstore, the very literally named Dark Pink Frost is definitely worth checking out. On me it's a deep shimmery rose, incredibly flattering and pretty in a soft way. It's creamy and almost opaque. I like to blend it into my lips well with a finger - with this application your lips look just-bitten, plush, and illuminated. It's not too garish if you blend it out. Wears well too. It sinks in, so if your lips start to feel naked and dry, apply some balm and it's all good.
This color may look and feel dated to you, but sheered/blended out it looks almost identical to the NARS Rikugien pencil on my lips...without the price tag and annoying sharpening. Wear it when you'll be out in the sun, your lips will catch the light ;)

This is a golden gilt mauve frost on me. It's so pretty & unique! It's not too OTT frosty nor turn whitish. This color & Breeze are my top 10 frosts. I love frosts grew up on them have always loved them I'm waiting for this matte lip thing to pass. This lipstick is a gem for $0.87!! It goes on so creamy. Don't be afraid of frosts they can be made to look good! This really highlights ur mouth. Can be used w MegaSlicks lipgloss for extra frostiness. Some people think frost looks cheap but I don't think that at all! It is how u balance out the rest of ur makeup.

WHOA. Amazed by these lipsticks!
Packaging: Simple black tube with a clear cover and name sticker on the bottom. Nothing fancy, but looks nice and works well. Try not to store these upside down, as they roll and smush themselves down on the cap. It's not an issue for me though.
Formula: Ah-MAZING! SOOOOOO impressed by this formula! Smooth, creamy, (but not overly creamy where they slide around and feel gross on the lips. Consistency is neither too thin or too thick.) very moisturizing, and long lasting. Gorgeous formula!
Longevity: Lasts about 6 hours until I notice fading. Very impressed.
Scent: These smell slightly like cherries. Not overpowering at all, almost undetectable.
Pigmentation: Beautiful! Fully opaque 1-2 swipes.
Seriously, CAN NOT go wrong. $0.99 for a luxury quality lipstick? Yes please! My favorite color has to be Dark Pink Frost. Stunning, unique rose pink with gold reflects. Definitely give these a try!

I recently picked this up for $0.79 cents at Rite Aid, and it's a definite winner. The name is kind of a misnomer, because it isn't very dark or frosty. It's actually a medium shimmery pink. I really love the color because it's well balanced. It's not too warm. It's not too cool. It's not too dark. It's not too lights. It's not too bright, but it's not a nude. I know I'll wear it a lot. The creamy formula is also great. It feels nice on my lips, but the wear is decent. I want to buy a backup right away!

Future Child-centered Therapist
If I could earn a living doing what I love most it would be working with children. I want to specialize in play therapy for children. Children communicate in their own language and to be able to communicate with them with play would help them to tell their stories. My goal is to either work in schools or as a victim advocate. I hope that I can change the world by empowering children who need support and guidance through tough times. There seems to be a significant need for more child-centered therapy and I hope to help fill that need. I am a senior and plan to go on to the Master's program in order to turn this dream into my reality. I also plan on becoming a licensed clinical social worker with a continuing education in child therapy.
Thank you for the chance to keep working toward my dream.

A Canada Border Service Agency vehicle spent much of the day Wednesday outside the Sherwood Inn and Motel in Charlottetown as agents searched for and removed documents from the premises.

Chinese teenager taken to school – not into custody – following Wednesday's raid, mother says
A few more pieces of the puzzle regarding a Canada Border Service Agency raid at a Charlottetown motel are starting to fall in place.
Ping Zhong, listed in the P.E.I. corporate registry as president, secretary, and treasurer of the Sherwood Motel, was reluctant to comment, saying she was not on site Wednesday as agents swooped in to began a day-long investigation at her motel.
Zhong told The Guardian the raid was focused on a woman and her teenage son who had been living in one of the units at the motel for the past two years.
RELATED: Canada Border Services agents swarm Charlottetown motel, one person arrested, witnesses say
A witness at the scene on Wednesday said a person was taken into custody as part of the raid.
Zhong was told that is not the case.
"I spoke to the mother today," Zhong said. "She said all they did was take the boy to school because he was late for the bus. He usually takes the bus every day."
Agents arrived at the motel complex at around 8 a.m. Wednesday, according to residents who live full time at the motel.
The Guardian, which was at the scene Wednesday, was told that, in fact, there had been one arrest as part of the investigation.
Agents wearing bullet-proof vests swarmed the property for the majority of the day, lugging away boxes and boxes of files, even taking doors off their hinges, said resident Barry Huggan.
Agents remained on the scene for the remainder of the day, coming and going in both marked and unmarked vehicles, removing the large volume of documents from both the main hotel building at the back of the property and from two other units in the adjacent motel.
Zhong said that investigators were asking about the boy's father, but she was told the father is in China.
There was no one in the unit Zhong mentioned when The Guardian returned to the motel late Thursday afternoon.
The corporate registry also names Min Zhong and Yi Zhong, joining Ping Zhong on the list of four shareholders of the company, as well as Cheng Dong, who is listed as both a shareholder and the lone director of the ownership group.
The Gilman family was reported to be co-owners and the Gilman family is still listed as owners on the motel's website.
However, Ping Zhong said the Gilmans are no longer involved, having left the motel ownership about two years ago.
The Gilman family confirmed they are no longer associated with the motel.
Zhong said the investigation had nothing to do with the motel or with her personally.
"I think this is really damaging our business reputation," she said.
She said operations returned to normal Thursday, but media inquires were pouring in. She said if there is anything more to learn about the investigation, it will be up to the Canada Border Services Agency to release those details.
That certainly wasn't happening on Thursday.
The Guardian requested additional details from the agency but was told there will be no further comment on the case because it is still under investigation.
On Wednesday, Chastity McKinnon, regional director of communications for the Atlantic region of Canada Border Services Agency, confirmed a search warrant had been executed in relation to an ongoing investigation.
"I am unable to provide any further details as the investigation is ongoing," McKinnon said in an emailed statement on Wednesday.

This research paper presents a marketing plan for a drive-in theater. Included is background on the types of entertainment, comparisons of negatives and positives in a SWOT-style analysis, proposals of special promotions and events and alternate sources of revenue to maximize income from the facility. The paper also contains suggestions of a percentage budget for a marketing dollar allocation.
From the Paper:"Situation Analysis " The people attending drive-ins today are the same ones who went as kids in the '50s and '60s and eventually their kids will go too. It's an entertaining, inexpensive, wholesome night for the family.Our business has only recently gone from being stable to a growth mode. We have found that the Disney animated hit The Lion King in 1994 and King Kong did especially well outdoors and helped create a new generation of drive-in theater fans.
"We are on track and on trend for current consumer and advertising mood. A major issue facing marketers and advertisers since the September 11 terrorist attacks is what do they sell and how do they sell it in a changed world. Advertising and marketing are happening in relation to a major public event, the "War on Terror", the "All Anthrax All the Time" news networks, a recession, and the largest increase in unemployment in five years."

Average yields for total sediment (TS) were estimated for the last five years at 65 sites and classified into thirds as high, medium, and low. While the distribution was spatially variable, there were some general patterns in location. Generally, spatial patterns not very discernible for sediment except for higher yields in the middle of the watershed, areas where total nitrogen and total phosphorus yields are also highest. The lowest yields are generally in the western areas of the Bay watershed, an area dominated by forests and on the Eastern Shore of Maryland and Delaware.

It is hard as moms to take care of our little ones all day, and even while pregnant, growing a human being is a lot of work! It happens so often that for time and convenience sake, we moms make poor food choices. What we really need are a few simple fixes that will give us the energy to plow through the day!
I have been an avid green-smoothie-drinker for almost two years now and it has made such a difference. I make one for myself nearly every morning and I love the extra boost it gives me. Not to mention it tastes like dessert for breakfast every day! I cannot tout the health benefits of green smoothies enough. Quite honestly I used to hate eating salads, but I knew the folic acid present in greens was vital for my health and my baby's health while I was pregnant and I was determined to find some way to get it without forcing it down!
Enter my green smoothie: jam packed with greens and other filling additives, these smoothies provide sustenance, boosts of energy, a great start to the day and lots of essential vitamins and minerals. Of course this all depends on what you want to add to it as well! The sweetness of the fruit (especially the bananas) hides the bitter flavor of the greens. This recipe is a great start for those looking to try a green smoothie because it's really sweet. As your palate adjusts to the green taste, you may find some smoothies too sweet and start adding more and more greens!
Pina Colada Green Smoothie
1/2-1 cup of unsweetened coconut milk (I make my own!)
1/2-1 cup of water or other alternative milk
6 ice cubes
1-2 large leaves of kale, or 2 cups of spinach
1-2 TBSP of Chia seeds
1-2 TBSP of ground flax seeds
1 banana
1 cup of frozen fruit: I use pineapple and mango
Combine all ingredients into a blender and press the ice crush function and then blend for 1-2 minutes until smooth. Makes one large serving or two medium sized servings.
Adding chia and flax seeds not only make the smoothie filling enough to act as a breakfast replacement, but they are also chock full of nutrients. One great benefit to green smoothies is that the blender does all the work of pureeing your food so that your digestive system doesn't have to. When you feel tired after eating it's because your body is working hard to digest the food you ate.
Green smoothies are very customizable, especially depending on what fruit and fillers you have on hand.
Here are some other items I like to mix and match with:
- Blueberries or other frozen berries
- oatmeal
- milk
- yogurt
- almond milk
- apples
- celery
- avocado
- orange juice
- carrot juice
- mint
- dandelion greens
- romaine

Did anyone notice a few themes missing from the popular files? For example, the inFocus theme, both HTML and WordPress versions are not in the list. I know the HTML one was just released and had at least 80+ sales last week and it's not on the list. Also, my Unite HTML theme is listed, but the WordPress version is not. I definitely sold more copies of the WordPress version in the last week than the HTML . What's going on?
Strange, i see it.
is happening with GR list (http://graphicriver.net/page/top_sellers ). 9 sales!
Also, I see 49 items in the TF list…

Nice! It's kind of funny.
Actually now that I think about it, this is the second week in a row there was a problem with the popular files list. Last weeks it was a couple days late updating.
I just noticed I created a topic called "Popular-E" files… Ha, I guess that's a new area of ThemeForest. It's french!
Hey Guys,
The developers will be on it first thing in the morning. Thanks for your patience.
Thanks. You guys are great!
And thanks for fixing my typo.
Great! Fixed!


text: Hi, I have two macs, one iMac and one MBA. The iMac has a 500 gb usb drive connected to it with time machine set up. The iMac is sharing this drive on the network, so that the MBA can take advantage of the same disk and also use that disk for Time Machine (TM) backups. In TM I see that the total disk space of the iMac is around 120 gbs after exlusions, and the MBA has around 80 gb after exclusions. This would totalt to 200 gb on the usb disk, so I would have around 300 gbs left for incremental backups. The problem is, i constantly get a "TM is full" on both macs. This is due to TM not having the option to use "x number of copies" or "3 months back" feature. Its just dumping the files every day. So, is there a way to control the number of copies or keep the retention a little lower? Any help greatly appreciated. Regards

Since version 9, PowerBuilder has provided the ability to create front-end clients functioning in a service-oriented architecture application via Web service interface technology. Originally the ability was based on the open source EasySOAP driver. In version 10.5 it was expanded to use a .NET 2.0 compatible driver, and in version 12.0 .NET SOA interfacing was made compatible with the latest MS WCF technology. In addition, in version 11.0 it became possible to create a DataWindow object from a Web service data source definition. Recently I used PB 12.0 to create four versions of a SOA client: Classic Win32, .NET WebForm, .NET WinForm, and WPF .NET. All business logic and data access was provided by a set of middle-tier services hosted in an MS server. In this article I'll focus on one aspect of that development effort - a comparison of several techniques for joining values from multiple Web service calls into one DataWindow result set.
The nature of remote services is that they are frequently under the control of a different IT group than the client developer. The client developer often does not have the ability to adjust the structure or contents of returned remote method value objects. The developer must "make do" with the values as they are returned from remote method calls and work around any roadblocks or limitations the data structures place in his way. This situation, in a way, is analogous to the one faced by any developer working with legacy data storage mechanisms. The structure of the data in the tables often doesn't fit the needs of the client presentation. Fortunately, with relational DBMS, the developer can adjust SQL Select statements to retrieve needed columns by leveraging SQL's ability to form relations among tables. In the PowerBuilder universe this is true for SQL Select DataWindows, where the developer has control over the client data source SQL. In the case of Web services, however, there is no specification for joining multiple Web service calls together to find a single unified result set. A DataWindow can only be built from the definition of a single service method and the client developer can't change the contents of the return.
There is SQL feature that DataWindow developers often leverage to allow them to add outside values to a DataWindow buffer. SQL allows you to define virtual or computed columns in a column list. The DataWindow will recognize these columns and allocate client-side buffer space for their values. A developer can "manually" populate these columns from an outside source using SetItem( ) calls or .Object expressions. However, with Web service data source DataWindows, the result set contents are fixed based on the return values described in the service description (WSDL or SVC) document. The developer does not have the ability to add or delete "virtual" columns in the buffer. Interestingly, with an External DataWindow Object the painter allows the editing and adding of columns on the column specification view. Not so for the Web service DataWindow; the painter does not allow you to add or delete column definitions. What is a developer to do if he needs to present values from multiple WS calls in a single DataWindow presentation? There is no place in the buffer to put the additional values!
SetItem( )
I'm going to describe how I approached this problem. One caveat: any solution must leverage the native abilities of PowerBuilder DataWindow Technology and not involve writing lots of ugly code to compensate for what appears to be a shortcoming in the platform's abilities. In the case of joining result sets, one ugly code-heavy solution would be to define an external data source DataWindow and manually populate in PowerScript from the return values of two separate Web service calls (3 DataWindow solution). Hey wouldn't it be nice to have a DWQL scripting language that would allow the joining and relating of DataWindow buffers?
Here's the scenario I was working with. The majority of the result set in the Portfolio display is directly returned from a single Web service call. I implemented it using a WS DWO. Figure 1 shows the finished DWO with the problematic items highlighted. The current price for each holding must be obtained from a second service call. The current price is also an input to the Market Value and Gain (Loss) computed object expressions. Figure 2 shows the methods that need to be called to get the needed values. Figure 3 shows the returned value objects and their data properties. In case you are unfamiliar with it, please note that the WS DataWindow automatically translates a returned array of value objects into a DataWindow result set.
The first approach involves placing a computed object in the DataWindow presentation whose expression called a global function wrapping a call to a Web service. This solution fit my criteria in that it was a PowerBuilder-esqe approach that required minimal coding. Testing revealed that although the solution worked, in that correct results were returned, performance was slow. A bit of debugging pointed to repeated service calls on each row. The culprit: the global function calling expression (Current Price) was referenced by other expressions (Market Value and Gain/Loss). Seems like the expression engine wants a fresh value every time an expression is referenced so it called the global function each time. Obviously, for performance reasons, I abandoned this approach. However, I still think the approach is valid when the expression is not referenced elsewhere within the DataWindow object.
This second approach came about in a flash of innovation when studying the column list in the 12.0 Classic WS DataWindow Painter. Figure 4 shows the column list compared to the returned value object property definition.
You can readily notice the highlighted columns in the DWO that are not in the returned bean. For every Out parameter, the DWO definition tool added an additional "throw away" column of type long; HoldingID got HoldingIDspecified, etc. I coupled this fact together with two other facts. One, in the Classic Web Service DWO Painter both column names and data types are editable on the column specification view. Two, the numeric value I would be working with would never exceed the storage capacity of a long. What I did was to hijack (edit) the column name and type to suit my needs. This little hack gave me buffer items whose values I could set using standard SetItem( ) method calls. Figure 5 shows the result of my hacking.
SetItem( )
Figure 6 shows the loop in which the items are populated with return values from the Web service call.
SOA applications are slowly becoming the vogue in business application software. PowerBuilder provides quality tools and constructs that enable you to rapidly construct effective service clients.

Portland Man Sues Boy Scouts
A former Portland Boy Scout filed a $5.3 million dollar child sex abuse lawsuit against the national and local Cascade Pacific Council of the Boy Scouts of America Wednesday.
The man, referred to as "Jim Smith" in the suit, claims he was sexually abused in the mid-1970's, by a pedophile Scout leader in Portland Scout Pack 75.
Smith's attorney, Steve Crew, says before his client's abuse, the Scouts fired Calvin Malone for serving alcohol to minors. The organization opened one of their secret "ineligible volunteer" files on Malone, but reinstated him as a Scout leader in 1974, with no warnings to parents.
Malone has testified that he went on to abuse many more boys over more than 10 years as a Scoutmaster in Oregon, Washington, Montana, California and Alabama, as well as Germany and Switzerland.
Malone is currently being held in a special sex offender detention center on McNeil Island, near Seattle, after 1993 convictions for Rape and Child Molestation in Snohomish County.
Another former Scoutmaster, Steven Terry Hill, has been accused in multiple lawsuits of sexually abusing Boy Scouts in the late 1970's.

A DVR consumer, Loretta M., was recently awarded a Caregiver of the Year award by Senior Helpers. Loretta (center) is pictured here with DWD Secretary Reggie Newson and DVR Counselor Alena Newberry.
An excerpt of what was read at the award ceremony by Loretta's supervisor:
We all have those go to people in our lives - whether it's mom, spouse, best
friend, whoever. When it comes to Senior Helpers, Loretta is our go to person.
With any crazy assignment or last minute fill-in, Loretta is always grateful to
help out and take on new tasks.
Loretta has this unique capability to identify with any client she is working
with. Loretta sees our clients as people with feelings and thoughts and
recognizes their needs and addresses them immediately. She always goes above and
beyond to make sure the clients feel safe and comfortable with her. She makes it
a point to form a special bond with each and every client she has. She makes
such a positive presence out in the field that within a couple of months of
working for us she already had a client referral that wanted care just so they
could see Loretta.
We cannot express our appreciation enough for everything she does any more.
We would trust her with our own families, and would never hesitate to send her
anywhere. She dedicates so much of her life to caring for these people, not for
the money, but because she sees the clients as her own family.
Oftentimes Loretta picks up crazy hours that probably make her feel more like
a taxi driver than caregiver, but you will never hear her complain and instead
so nothing but gratitude for the opportunity to work at Senior Helpers. Loretta
is definitely the type of Caregiver everyone should strive to be.

|My "minimalist" shoe for training, and my Neotango shoe for the milonga.
Common Myths about Wearing High Heels
I want to help dancers dance well not just now, but for a lifetime - and that means taking a very critical look at how we treat our feet. As long as I dance tango, I will (probably) wear high heels at least some of the time. They are an accepted, even encouraged, part of the tango culture. I also consult with dancers on how to train their feet, legs and hips to be able to wear high heels while minimizing the damage that the shoes do. However, while I can help you be more comfortable in and out of your high heels, they are still damaging your feet, knees, hips and even your back.
"Platform shoes or wedges are better for your feet/posture/back."
False - in fact they may do even more damage, and pose more of a risk for your ankles.
Platform shoes and wedges tend to have rigid foot beds. "That throws off the biomechanics of walking," Hillary Brenner says. "Your foot is trying to bend a certain way, but the shoe is fighting you because it's so rigid." If the heel of the platform is much higher than the toe area, the shoe also puts pressure on the metatarsal bones. Hillary Brenner, DPM, spokeswoman, American Podiatric Medical Association. Platform shoes turn your foot into a block, with the only mobility coming from the ankle. Now your ankle must do all of the work stabilize you - which is not what it was designed to do. It actually puts your ankles (and knees) more at risk for injury.
"You can use inserts or insoles to prevent damage."
True and False - While foam or gel inserts can offer shock absorption, they can also further restrict the mobility of your foot. Orthotics and inserts are great short term solutions that can help alleviate the side effects of poorly fitting shoes or an unnatural gait, but they don't actually fix the problem. In the long term they can create more problems related to constricting the mobility of the foot.
"The pain will get better once you "break in" the shoe."
False - you're not really breaking in the shoes, you're more likely breaking in your feet. Your feet will adapt to the shoe far faster than leather can be "broken" to mold to your foot. Our feet are magnificently adaptable and will adjust to the demands we place on them - usually by shifting the dysfunction up our bodies. If we can't flex our feet properly, we put pressure on the ankles. When the ankles can't cope with the dysfunction (because they're being made to do work they weren't built for), the damage just keeps traveling up the body to the knees, hips and back.
Second, any shoe you buy needs to fit your foot when you put it on. Period. Shop for shoes when you've been on your feet for awhile, or at the end of the work day, and make sure they fit well. I had a tango shoe salesperson tell me, in the span of 5 minutes that one pair of shoes (that was too big) would mold to my foot with wear and that a second pair of shoes (that was too small) would stretch to fit almost immediately. *sigh* Does anyone remember the British comedy "Are You Being Served?" - it's like being told, "It will ride up with wear." If the shoe doesn't fit, put it back. A poorly fitted shoe will harm your dance, and your body.
"Just keep practicing in them until you get used to them."
False - Same as above - you're simply making your body shift the dysfunction to parts of the body that weren't designed to do that work. The only way to train your feet to wear high heels well and mitigate some of the damage being done, is to exercise your feet outside of the high heels. How can you train your foot if you can't use the full range of motion of your muscles, joints and tendons?
"The Icon of Femininity?"
This was one argument I was not prepared for and it came in the form of a lengthy email from a tango dancer in Europe. She wrote that high heels were "The Icon" of femininity - the symbol of the fashionable, elegant woman. I'm not arguing that high heels are an iconic image in femininity, I just don't want it to be the iconic image of femininity. I would like to believe that we can be the powerful image of all that is beautiful in the female form without doing damage to our bodies. I refuse to believe that women are just naturally masochists who derive satisfaction from suffering for fashion (yes, someone really wrote that) - http://www.guardian.co.uk/
(Climbing off the soapbox.)
In dance, as in daily life, shoes are tools - they work for you, not the other way around. Make sure your tools are doing what you need them to do, rather than making your life, and your dance, harder. Your body is how you express yourself and interact with the world. It is through the body that we express our art as dancers of any dance. Treat it well.

» Nyc, New York Harlem Bus Tour
Nyc, New York Harlem Bus Tour
Carole Terwilliger Meyers
A new day is dawning in Harlem. The place is hot. Especially with Europeans. However, most out-of-towners don't get there on the famous A train. Instead, thousands of tourists--mostly Europeans--head uptown each week on organized tours. Because I am interested in attending a Gospel church service, I choose the "Harlem on Sunday" tour.
The chaos of boarding behind us, our bus heads up the West Side into the high street numbers beyond 110th Street, where Harlem officially begins. The border is obvious--the green of Central Park stops and the graffiti starts. Though this is the English-speaking tour, everyone except me and my companion are foreigners. They hail from Austria, Denmark, France, Germany, Holland (home of the original Haarlem), and Japan. Our charming guide, Mahalia, a young Haitian woman with a dry sense of humor, fills us in on Harlem's history, telling us that until the 1830s it was a little village buried deep in the north country of Manhattan. Then, speculation turned it from an extension of Central Park into a concrete jungle.
In Harlem Heights we get off the bus to view Alexander Hamilton's meticulously kept house, and we run into some notorious local color--an African-American panhandler who is not happy that our tour guide has brought us into the hood and hurls expletives her way. He is obviously on something, and she handles the situation well. With our attention drawn to his ill behavior, we almost miss the reality beneath this cliche--the many other peaceful people strolling the neighborhood, most decked out in their Sunday best.
We get back on the bus and travel through the attractive, well maintained neighborhoods of Sugar Hill and Morningside Heights, passing the beautiful gothic City College campus (it is second only to U.C. Berkeley in number of faculty members who are Nobel Prize winners).
Our destination among the approximately 400 churches in Harlem is the Paradise Baptist Church, a small church with lots of heart. We file into the modest assembly hall furnished with movie theatre-style folding seats spattered with dried paint. A bulletin board tells about the church's progress in paying off its mortgage, and I assume hosting groups like ours helps toward that goal. Most of the women are dressed in white, which is traditional for church officials and ushers on Sundays when they are being honored, and the men are spiffily dressed in black suits. After a rousing song, everyone in the congregation circulates to greet the other worshipers, including us. The hugs and handshakes are so sincerely warm that I feel they are truly glad we are here. The only awkwardness seems to be with the French in our group, who naturally want to do a second air-kiss on the cheek.
There is more singing, and we sway to the rhythm, making offerings in the basket passed around as the choir sings "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands." (I notice that some of the choir members have positively angelic faces.) This is followed by a long, drawn-out rendition of "I'll Be All Right" that just about brings down the roof. Several teens in our group jump up to the beat only to be pulled back down by their parents. Anyone who was dozing is awake now. A member of the congregation is overcome and collapses. One of those women in white, this one with a nurse's cap, comes to her aid along with other members of the congregation. (Two nurses are always in attendance at these emotional services.) Due to time restraints, we are ushered out before the sermon starts, as sermons here can go on for several hours.
After stops to stroll through a leafy neighborhood, walk along wide 125th Street in front of the world-famous Apollo theater (which is open selling t-shirts and other souvenirs from the lobby), and make a pit stop in an ever-reliable McDonald's, the tour is over and we are returned to mid-town.

We will have a four-team playoff. The two semifinal games will rotate through six bowls. The national championship game will be bid out (similar to the NFLs Super Bowl).

Kristine Padilla, Senior, Radiologic Technology Award Winning Display: Fetal MRI
Fetal MRI is a relatively new tool for viewing the developing fetus. First used in 1983, Fetal MRI provides cross-sectional, highly detailed imagery of the fetus and can ultimately help serve in the healthcare planning process for the unborn. Used in conjunction with other diagnostic modalities and lab tests in which fetal abnormalities are suspected, an MRI examination may confirm the abnormalities. Once the MRI examination has been evaluated, the confirmed diagnosis then can help provide parents with a deeper insight to help them plan and prepare what is best for their child. Fetal MRI is very useful in pre-surgical assessments for potential fetal surgeries or in-utero interventions and has proven to be greatly valuable with unique challenges within the delivery process.
– Kristine Padilla, abridged from "Fetal MRI"
Health Sciences 499a, Independent Study, Fall 2010 Semester
At the Annual meeting of the California Society of Radiologic Technologists, students from the Cal State Northridge Bachelor of Science degree program in Radiologic Technology took first, second and third place in the scientific display competition. The presentations were products of the Health Sciences 499a Independent Study in Radiologic Technology with Anita Slechta, MS, BSRT, ARRT(R)(M), REHS, FASRT.
First Place was awarded to CSUN Senior Lorie Falaminiano for her project, "The Roadmap to Success" a detailed study of interventional/therapeutic-radiographic procedures. Second place went to Senior Gabriella Di Paola for her display entitled, "Nazi Sterilization Experiments on Human Beings Using X-ray" and the Third Place prize went to Kristine Padilla, also a senior in the program, for her display, "Fetal MRI".
As finals drew to a close, Kristine Padilla spent 5 Minutes with us to tell what motivated her to do her project, and what she learned in the process.
Q: What was it about Fetal MRI that interested you?
A: I had heard about Fetal MRI through some information we got about the work they do at Shriner's Hospitals for Children and that MRI can be used for early detection potential birth complications or illness or birth defects. I was also impressed by how doctors can use the results of the imaging along with new techniques to help the baby while mother is pregnant and when child is newborn. I was curious about the ways that abnormalities could be detected to allow the earliest possible treatments.
Q: How did Professor Slechta help you prepare for your presentation at the conference?
A: Since this was Independent Study, we had a wider range of topics to explore than we might get in a regular class. So we were each asked to come up with topics that we wanted to know more about. As I worked on my project, I was also motivated by the staff and clinical coordinators who pushed us to learn more. The concept of the presentation was to show greater detail than can be covered in class – to expand our knowledge in radiology and share with others who are at the conference, which also provides continuing education credit for technologists. So as we worked on our projects, we learned as techs would in the professional world – expanding knowledge of our field. I completed my research and wrote the essay, and then created a display board using sections of the essay for the display and adding images. This wasn't a verbal presentation, so we had to let the display do all the talking.
Q: Ultrasound is commonly known, did you find that Fetal MRI is also commonly used?
A: Ultrasound is still the first approach to fetal imaging, but in my research I learned that MRI used along with ultrasound can verify diagnosis. MRI gives a different kind of image, too. It shows the anatomy of the fetus within the mother through cross-sectional slices and in various directional planes, so we can see much more detail of anatomic structures than we can with ultrasound. Also, ultrasound offers a smaller field of view than MRI. With ultrasound, the position of the fetus can hide conditions that we can see if we use MRI. Also, because of the nature of the imaging methods, MRI can get a clearer image than ultrasound in cases where the mother is obese or the amniotic fluid levels are low.
Q: What was it about your project that won the prize?
A: I like projects that bring together the scientific with my creative side. There is a lot of positive potential with Fetal MRI to improve or even save new lives. I think the judges liked the combination of thorough research and clear presentation.
Q: When you graduate, what do you want to do next?
A: I'm scheduled to graduate in August, 2011, and I want to get further into Fetal MRI and Of course learn new technology, new modalities. I recently had some experience in the Cardiac Catheter Lab, which is an area of high intensity – these are live x-rays that let doctors look inside the heart as it is working – you can see everything moving in real time and discover blockages, see disease. I want to learn more about this kind of technology. The thing with Radiology the more you learn, the more you can involve yourself and think ahead of the game, the more interesting and more fun the science becomes.

Injury Postpones 15-City Eddie Vedder Tour
Being on the mend has temporarily put Eddie Vedder off a 15-city U.S. trek, E! Online reports.
The Pearl Jam singer's recent back surgery left his right arm with temporary nerve damage, forcing him to announce his planned solo tour's postponement Thursday. New dates haven't been announced, but the tour was to kick off in Las Vegas Tuesday and has a new projected fall start.
Nevertheless, it doesn't sound like Vedder let the tour be postponed without a fight.
"After having worked aggressively with doctors and physical therapists for the last eight weeks to repair the damage, the intensity of the injury and the time needed to heal has made it impossible to play the shows as scheduled," Pearl Jam manager Kelly Curtis' statement via the band's website read. "There was hope until the last minute that the treatments would be successful."
Vedder's May 31, 2011 release Ukulele Songs - composed of both original songs and covers - marked the grunge front man's first extensive solo-album work since 2007's "Into The Wild" soundtrack. It was not only warmly received by critics, but peaked at #4 on the U.S. album charts.
Pearl Jam, meanwhile, had been scheduled as of December 2011 to start a European tour sometime in June 2012. That tour's fate hasn't yet been addressed.

Sir Bradley Wiggins will not ride for Team Sky in this year's Tour de France, team principal Sir David Brailsford has confirmed.
The 2012 champion had long since indicated that he would not be included in a squad built around Chris Froome, who last year succeeded him as yellow jersey winner.
Froome will be supported by trusted lieutenant Richie Porte in a team also featuring Wiggins' fellow Great Britain Olympian Geraint Thomas.
Mikel Nieve, Bernhard Eisel, Vasil Kiryienka, David Lopez, Danny Pate and Xabier Zandio complete the line-up.
The Tour starts with the Grand Depart in Yorkshire next Saturday and continues until the traditional Champs Elysees climax on July 27.
Stage one is from Leeds to Harrogate, with the second stage from York to Sheffield the following day.
Brailsford said: "Team Sky returns to the Tour de France with the reigning champion and we are looking to win the yellow jersey for the third time in three years and a second consecutive time for Chris Froome.
"We know how hard it is to win this race and that it takes a totally focused and carefully constructed team, with the right blend of riders, to give us the best chance of victory. Each rider has been selected to play a specific role which will involve total sacrifice and commitment to the team's ambition of reaching the Champs Elysees in yellow."
Froome has been in good form this season, winning both the Tour of Oman and Tour de Romandie and leading the Criterium du Dauphine until he was hampered by a crash on stage six.
He kept the lead that day, Thomas playing a key role in getting him back into the pack, but was overhauled the following day and eventually finished 12th.
Porte helped Froome to victory last year and, along with Kiryienka and Lopez, will have a key role to play in the climbing sections.
Zandio and Nieve are also seen as climbing specialists while Pate and especially Eisel will be expected to push the pace along in the flat and cobbled sections.
Brailsford admitted leaving out Wiggins was "a very, very tough decision".
He said: "In elite sport, selection of a team is one of the most difficult parts, there's no doubt about it.
"Bradley's been a great champion, is a great champion - he's been fundamental to the growth of cycling in this country. But my job is to look at the best probabilities to try to win. A star team will always beat a team of stars."

Simon Jones marks end of 2005 Ashes England era by announcing retirement
Simon Jones has followed Matthew Hoggard, his fellow 2005 Ashes winner, in announcing his retirement from first-class cricket.
However, the injury-ravaged Glamorgan seam bowler will continue to be available for Twenty20 contracts after his present deal expires at the end of the season.
Jones is the last of England's fabled five-man attack from the 2005 series triumph over Australia to be playing regularly for his county and will bow out of the first-class and List A game after Gloucestershire visit Cardiff for Glamorgan's final match of the season, three days after their Yorkshire Bank 40 final against Nottinghamshire at Lord's.
The 34-year-old played only 18 Tests but managed to take 59 wickets at a fine average of 28.23 and will go down as one of…

Modern Warfare 4: First New Features Leaked – Rumour
Modern Warfare 4 is in development and features completely new features such as cloaking camouflage and a 'Dominator UAV' according to a report on se7ensins.
"It's another MW game. There's something called, 'Drone Survaillance'. They're working on 'HALO' jumps (High Altitude; Low X.) There is a level under ice. There is cloaking tech. Something called a 'Dominator UAV'," reads the quote from an alleged source at Call of Duty content developer Neversoft.
The comments should be treated purely as rumour for now, but if there's anything in the above details, they're the first glimpse at what Activision has planned for the next entry in the Modern Warfare franchise.
Sledgehammer and Infinity Ward would be the obvious candidates to be developing MW4, but the game remains unannounced.
Treyarch's future-set Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 launches on 13 November.

"I like women like Angelina Jolie," she hints.
As Tila Tequila makes fake wedding plans with her lesbian lover Courtenay Simmel's former lesbian lover Casey Johnson and Hollywood keeps cranking out the sex tapes, total non-lesbian Michelle Rodriguez has something she wants to say.
"If I wanted to tell people what I do with my vagina, I'd have made a sex video a long time ago," screeched the Lost beauty.
Sexual experts, or "sexperts," agree that a Michelle Rodriguez sex tape would almost certainly tell people what she did with other women's vaginas (possibly Kristanna Loken's), but that's not the point.
"Largely, people don't know the whole story about anything," Michelle lectures the world at large, "but still they need to put a name on it so they can label it and put it on the side and not dedicate any time to figuring it out. It's laziness."
Is it lazy to demand that actresses distribute explicit videos of themselves engaged in sex acts on the Internet?
Or is it lazy not to?
"I like women like Angelina Jolie," explains M-Rod (who was once arrested for getting into a dildo fight with her female "roommate"), "because of her ability to harness masculine and feminine energy into one."
Is that something a lesbian would say?

Spain's elBulli restaurant to become 'creative laboratory'
World-renowned Spanish chef Ferran Adria has linked up with telecommunications giant Telefonica to transform his emblematic restaurant elBulli into a "creative laboratory," the group said.
The four-year deal also involves organising training courses and conferences in several major cities, including Miami, New York, London, Buenos Aires, Berlin, Mexico, Madrid and Barcelona, it said in a statement released late on Tuesday.
"One of the most spectacular activities as part of this agreement will be Telefonica's support in the transformation of elBulli.., which will reopen its doors in 2014 transformed into a totally different space."
elBulli, on Spain's northeastern Catalan coast, last year came top of the World's 50 Best Restaurants list for the fourth year in a row following a poll of more than 800 chefs, restaurant critics and industry insiders for Britain's Restaurant Magazine.
However this year it slipped to number two behind the Noma restaurant in Copenhagen.
But Adria announced earlier this year that the eatery is to close in 2012 and then reopen as a non-profit foundation in 2014.
The deal with Telefonica represents "the first funds for the foundation, for which we are still looking for money," Adria told the Spanish business newspaper Expansion published Wednesday.
He said future creations at elBulli would now be "broadcast in real time" on the Internet.
A Telefonica executive, Luis Abril, said the deal "will allow us to make the new 'elBulli' into the best creative laboratory in the world, combining innovation and new technologies in communications and knowledge."
Adria and British chef Heston Blumenthal of The Fat Duck outside London have since the late 1990s rocked the world of gastronomy by using science to "deconstruct" and rebuild food in what has been termed "molecular cuisine."

Avant-garde Man Forever is not easily digestible
If Kid Millions has one overriding feeling about Man Forever's Pansophical Cataract, it's that the general public might not find the songs entirely suitable for dinner parties, high-school dances, or Top 40 radio. Even if that's oversimplifying things, it gets the point across that the release deserves to be filed under Art rather than Commerce.
"It's not very digestible," says the drummer formally known as John Colpitts, reached while record shopping in New York. "It's pretty avant-garde. Actually, I shouldn't say that, so I'll just say it's not an easily digested piece of music."
So what's stopping Pansophical Cataract from hitting the mainstream? Well, you can start with the fact that it's two songs long, with "Surface Patterns" clocking in at 18 minutes and 10 seconds, and "Ur Eternity" managing to eclipse that at 18 minutes 46 seconds. Neither track is going to usurp "Gangnam Style" as a first-listen smash, with Colpitts and his small army of Man Forever collaborators taking a slow-build approach to the compositions. Cleverly, it's a treated single drum that's at the heart of the tribal songs. Colpitts recorded friends and acquaintances beating on snares, layered them, and then added subterranean synths and bass to the monolithic final product.
The end result is fascinatingly transporting, in the same way as the Velvet Underground's "Sister Ray", the druggy Congolese compilation Congotronics 2, or Henryk Górecki's Symphony No.3. Cue up Pansophical Cataract and then prepare to get lost in the polyrhythmic majesty of it all.
Quite accurately, Colpitts has suggested that the record can "be likened to watching Niagara Falls. You can't expect to see every drop of water that crests over the ridge, but you are overwhelmed with the sheer scale of the thing."
The genesis of the release can be traced back to a monthlong residency the drummer did at the Millay Colony for the Arts in Upstate New York. "I was a composer, so I wrote the pieces there," he says. "But after that, there was so much that went into the record, so many steps. Basically, a short version is that I'd been doing Man Forever with drum sets for a while. That required me tuning drums and then taking them to each show, and I got sick of that. It was a huge ordeal.
"I was asked to do this radio show," Colpitts continues, "and they wanted me to do something small. So I worked something up with [Yeah Yeah Yeahs drummer] Brian Chase, where we would play a single drum set together. We were doing that, but it wasn't really sounding cool, even though we were moving all sorts of pieces around. Finally, we just ended up playing on the same snare. That's when we realized, 'Oh, shit, this is it.' We did it live, and from that foundation, I built the pieces on the record."
As cool as Pansophical Cataract is, the sonic experiment hasn't been without its drawbacks. Live, the songs can stretch up to 40 minutes, with Colpitts scheduled to get help for his upcoming Vancouver appearance from Black Mountain's Jeremy Schmidt on keyboards and Joshua Wells lending a hand on the snare. "Ur Eternity" and "Surface Patterns" might cause those in the audience to bliss out, but it's an entirely different experience for those playing the pieces. That explains why this might be the one and only time you'll get to experience Pansophical Cataract live, which Man Forever's main man plans to stop performing in concert sooner rather than later.
Asked how he makes it through a show, Colpitts laughs wryly, and then responds: "I don't really. It's not hard—it's just bad for your body. I mean, I just do it, but it's not sustainable."
Or, for that matter, easily digestible.
Man Forever plays the Biltmore Cabaret on Tuesday (December 18).

VOA Info & Guides: Overview | Progression & Task List | Raiding | Visible Armor
The Valley of Lunanyn can be divided into two sections: The northern area is of Tier 1 difficulty and consists of green terraces and farm fields. Buried under here is the body of the god, Lunanyn, whose blood fuels the fertility of the farmland and allows the growth of enough food to feed all of Alaris. Solusek Ro has come upon this area and, in his short stay, has already caused damage to the terraces.
The southern area is of Tier 2 difficulty and consists of a large, open, war-torn valley, an area ravaged as a result of the ongoing war between Argath and Erillion. Rallos Zek has come upon this area and, like Solusek Ro, has had a damaging impact on the valley.
