Star Trek: 25th Anniversary is a 1992 adventure video game developed by Interplay and published by Ultra Games for the Nintendo Entertainment System and later a different version was made with the same name (not a port) on the Game Boy.
It begins as the USS Enterprise is approaching the planet Sigma Iotia II. The ship is confronted with a tear in space-time that sends them to an unknown area of space. While attempting to escape, the dilithium crystals, needed to travel at warp speed, have been fused and are useless. The Enterprise is trapped in a decaying orbit above an unknown planet, but Spock detects small amounts of dilithium crystals on the planet. Once the crystals are found, the Enterprise still needs to get back to Federation space, (stopping for better crystals to continue the journey), figure out what caused the tear in space-time, and find a way to fix it.
When an away team beams down to a level, the gameplay becomes graphic adventure game styled. Most of the time, progress in the game requires the player to interact with various life forms on a world, find objects, and solve puzzles. While each character is equipped with a phaser, violence rarely is the ideal solution to any puzzle.

The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to all the vehicles these days. It's not a regular occurrence that you realize that you have to buy a replacement Oil Filter to repair your car or truck. Make no mistake, you didn't buy your Park Lane Wagon unless you understood you would be getting horsepower and value both rolled up into one automobile. Anyone who owns a Ford knows that when it comes to fixing their automobile only the absolute best replacement parts will do.
It's hard to imagine how poorly our engines would perform without being constantly lubricated. Oil filters have been around for almost 100 years, and your Ford Park Lane Wagon engine still uses the technology that is derived from this early invention. Your Ford Park Lane Wagon oil filter traps the dirt and metal shavings generated by the engine as oil flows through it so it remains clean. Without this process being performed by your oil filter, the engine oil would turn to sludge and not lubricate your engine anymore.
When your Ford needs a top quality replacement Oil Filter, there's no need to waste time looking anywhere other than the authority, Car Parts Discount. Ordering new Ford parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are taking advantage of the absolute greatest original and aftermarket replacement Park Lane Wagon parts on the internet. Make all your future car parts purchases at carpartsdiscount.com and save time and money on all your upcoming repairs. Just choose your year from the list below to find the right Ford Park Lane Wagon Oil Filter for your 1956 model.

I have not had much luck with girls as of late, so at the suggestion of a few have looked at online dating but I think this would never be an option. The reason being the description of what almost every woman wants, I can't believe there are many men of this world who would be able to live up too the expectations (demands) of a lot of the women who advertise, the qualifications required make it look like a job advert that you would read and immediately move onto the next one. No wonder they are single, don't they realise that Superman was a fictional character, anyway has anyone got any other suggestions as online dating seems to have the odds heavily stacked against men having any success.

You're right about it being very stacked against men. The best you can do is put a good profile up and just view it like a number's game. Instead of focusing on 5-6 women, focus on 50-60 women.10|10|0
if you want to try online dating be honest about your description. girls would like that more than a guy with a fake description i guess.00|00|0
The problem with that is how do they know even if you were as honest as you can be, they could still think it's a load of lies, men can never win.

Jo Pavey will compete in a fifth Olympic Games after being selected to represent Team GB at the Rio Games.
The 42-year-old, who will be the oldest British woman to run in a Games, achieved the 10,000m qualifying time at the European Championships in Amsterdam last week.
'Super Saturday' gold medallists Jessica Ennis-Hill, 30, Mo Farah, 33, and Greg Rutherford, 29, are all in.
Christine Ohuruogu, 32, who won gold in Beijing, is selected for the 400m.
They are among a team of 80 athletes selected to represent Britain in Rio that will be looking to improve on the haul of six medals in 2012.
Athletics team leader Neil Black told BBC Sport: "It's vital to be clear that we have selected Jo Pavey because she has shown form and we believe she will perform at the highest level at Rio."
Pavey's place was being challenged by 24-year-old Kate Avery.
"It took significant time and analysis but it was about picking the person we thought would perform at the highest level," said Black.
"It's a great story and I'm so pleased for her, but I feel for Kate."
Dina Asher-Smith, 20, won gold in the 200m in Amsterdam and is picked for her first Olympic Games, as is men's sprinter Nethaneel Mitchell-Blake, 22.
Pavey out on her own
Devon's Pavey made her senior international debut in 1997 and competed at her first Olympic Games in Sydney in 2000.
She is yet to win an Olympic medal, with her best finish being fifth in the 5,000m in Athens 2004.
At the age of 40, she won gold in the 10,000m at the 2014 Zurich European Championships to become the competition's oldest ever gold medallist.
Her place at Rio was in doubt after she finished sixth at the British trials in May, but she recorded a season's best of 31 minutes 34 seconds in Amsterdam.
She will become the first British track athlete to compete in five Games. Javelin thrower Tessa Sanderson competed in six from 1976 to 1996.
"I was literally in a race against time," Pavey told BBC Radio 5 live. "I was busting a gut in training just to give it one last attempt that could get me even considered really.
"I can't believe it, I'm really lucky to be going to a fifth Olympic Games."
'It's an exciting time to be a British athlete'
Martyn Rooney, who has been selected for the 400m and the 4x400m relay, told BBC Radio 5 live: "To go to my third Olympics, I'm very excited. I'm excited about what kind of shape I'm in. It should be a very prosperous Olympics."
The 29-year-old, who missed out on the final of the 400m in 2012, added: "It's an exciting time to be a British athlete. It's a golden year, hopefully."
After several golfers pulled out of the Olympics because of fears over the Zika virus, Rooney revealed that his wife and son would not be joining him in Rio.
"We decided, not just because of Zika, but the whole safety of the event, it was best that they stay at home," he said.
On the controversial topic of golfers pulling out, he added that they may have changed their minds if prizemoney had been on offer.
Heptathlete Ennis-Hill, who won gold in London, is relishing the Rio Games.
"Everything's coming together now," she said. "If I was able to defend my title in Rio it will certainly be one of my greatest achievements."

text: I had been looking at different adult websites for several months, but I could not find one that was realistic enough, and I could not find an adult website to cater to my needs and wants so I set out to create my own. I was looking to be sexually stimulated so I knew that I would have to create a website tailored to my needs and wants. I just knew that someone else would be interested in the same things that I was interested in. This helped to squelch any fear that I may have had about not getting traffic to my website. My website would contain stories and videos of sensual, naked encounters. Being the creative director, I want explore and post scenes of public blowjobs, surprise sexual escapades, and fantasies come true. I want others to take pleasure in feeling the sensations of arousal and foreplay for themselves or for teasing someone else into the perfect orgasm. Viewers and subscribers will be entertained, relieve stress, fight insomnia, feel amazing, and have fun. The goal of this website is for others to explore their sexuality and enjoy the ride.

CAIRO (Reuters) - Egypt's armed forces chief will keep his post as defense minister in a new cabinet to be formed by President-elect Mohamed Mursi, a member of the military council said.
Field Marshal Hussein Tantawi, 76, who served as defense minister for two decades under ousted leader Hosni Mubarak, will keep his post after Egypt's first Islamist president takes over, Major-General Mohamed Assar said in a rare appearance on a talk show on privately-owned CBC television on Wednesday night.
"The (new) government will have a defense minister who is head of the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces," he said.
Asked if this meant Tantawi would keep his defense portfolio, Assar said: "Exactly. What is wrong with that? He is the head of the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces, the defense minister and the commander of the armed forces."
Tantawi effectively pushed the 84-year-old Mubarak aside on February 11 last year when it became clear the security forces could not contain street protests against his 30-year rule.
The military council took charge, managing a turbulent and sometimes violent transition period in which Egypt's first free parliamentary and presidential elections have taken place.
The republic's past presidents, all drawn from the military, have had the title of supreme commander of the armed forces.
Yet Assar's assertion that Tantawi would remain in place even before Mursi has been sworn in on Saturday illustrates the limits the military seeks to set on his presidential authority.
The army council backed a supreme court decision on June 14 to dissolve the Islamist-dominated parliament on the grounds that rules were broken during its election six months ago.
The military council then assumed legislative powers, which Assar said it would exercise until a new assembly is elected.
In another of several actions which the Muslim Brotherhood denounced as a military coup before Mursi's election win was confirmed on Sunday, the council also named a newly created National Defence Council to run defense and foreign policies.
Although Mursi and his future prime minister will also serve on the council, they will be outnumbered by the generals in a body whose decisions will be taken by majority vote.
Assar insisted that Mursi, a 60-year-old U.S.-trained engineer, would have full presidential prerogatives, even as he set an apparent limit on his right to decide on war or peace.
"The president is the head of state with full powers. The president makes a decision to go to war in consultation with the military rulers," Assar said, adding that this was normal practice in other countries, including the United States.

INVISIBLE RAYS THAT CONTROL OUR FEEBLE MINDS: Our nomination for the worst radio commercials during the current political season goes to Pima County Board of Supervisors candidate Vicki Cox-Golder--and not because we think she's just another sleazy political insider, either. Which, of course, she is (See "The Real Dirt," Tucson Weekly, October 24).
The dumb-as-toast husband and wife characters Vicki's got supposedly discussing the issues over the airwaves would seem to reveal her belief that voters are just plain blithering, simplistic morons.
This sort of approach must work, though--have you ever noticed how stupid the characters are in all those fast-food commercials on television? Obviously millions of not-very-bright people identify with those characters and eagerly suck up all that crappy junk food. Otherwise the large corporate purveyors of greasy sludge wouldn't spend the millions they do year after year painting their customers as brainless bozos.
And while Vicki merely portrays her supporters as drooling simpletons, incumbent "Special" Ed Moore takes the game one step further: Last week he sent out mailers entitled "Pin The Tale," in which he offers a $500 reward to anyone who can prove Ed's recent attempts to smear Vicki contain untruths.
Ed, you pathetic old bag of crap, everything you said about Vicki knowing people who might have been involved in shady dealings may be utterly true; but, unfortunately for you, it's also utterly irrelevant. Most of us know people who've screwed up. We bet you do, too. So friggin' what?
Apparently everybody understands that but you. Meanwhile, you're clinging to your ridiculous trash-Vicki strategy like Baby Woo-Woo to his fuzzy widdle blankie. And we bet you think you're so clever, too. Well, just keep that blankie over your head a tad longer, you pickled old cadaver, and maybe someone will come along to beat the crap out of you, politically speaking.
We only hope it's Sharon Bronson. She's the one candidate in that race who hasn't farted at the voters and called it campaign rhetoric.
BALLOT BALLET: Let's see...When all is said and done, the candidates and their various supporters in the race for Pima County's District 3 supervisor's seat will have spent probably more than $250,000 in their attempts to secure a job that pays $52,000 plus a car, health insurance and assorted minor bennies. That should tell you what's really at stake here--as the rich and powerful Growth Lobby's Vicki Cox-Golder battles controlled-growth candidate Sharon Bronson for the seat now held by the politically demented Ed Moore.
Given the Growth Lobby's massive monetary interest in controlling the Board of Supervisors, we're beginning to worry about the integrity of Pima County's voting process. After the big screw-up in the primary, election officials are saying that due to incompatible systems, they're going to hand-count absentee ballots in the process of merging them with the regular ballots.
Don't worry about a thing, though--we're sure you can't trust 'em.
VICKI'S LAME RESPONSE: The Tucson Weekly and even the Tucson Citizen took note of the 12-page, two-color tabloid dropped on all Amphi School District residents at an expense of $8,500 two weeks before the November election.
The tabloid contained puff photos of all school board members, two of whom just happen to be up for re-election. It also contained five photos of board member Vicki Cox-Golder, who just happens to be a candidate for Pima County Board of Supervisors.
Cox-Golder sloughed off charges this was sleazy electioneering with taxpayer funds. She said the Amphi District always sends its newsletters out in October. Well, gee, Vicki, mind if we ask: How come you picked October to send 'em? Isn't that always the month before the election? Give us a break.
AND SPEAKING OF VICKI'S RECORD AT AMPHI: Democrat Sharon Bronson got an interesting fax earlier this week from Andrés J. Morales, president of the Amphitheater Education Association, which read:
This is to inform you that the Amphi Education Association has NOT taken a position of support for the candidacy of Vicki Cox-Golder for county supervisor. In fact, we have taken no position in the race....
I feel it is necessary to clear up any possible misrepresentations of any candidate who may have chosen to claim that they have the support of "teachers."
I understand that the former Amphi EA president may have endorsed Cox-Golder, but he did so as an individual. Likewise, my endorsement for your candidacy is purely on a personal level and does not represent the wishes of our organization as a whole.
My personal concerns in regards to the candidacy of Cox-Golder deal with the direction and action, or lack thereof, she gave to the Amphitheater School Board.
You don't imagine Cox-Golder was twisting the truth again, was she?
SPEAKING OF AMPHI: While we don't officially endorse candidates with any kind of Tucson Weekly Stamp of Approval--mostly because we've been too disgusted by their actions once they get into office--we will say that if we were voting in the Amphi School District, we'd vote for just one candidate: Nancy Young Wright.
A smart, capable candidate who will look out for kids, Wright first got sucked into the political process in the fight to save Honey Bee Canyon. Given the recent stonewalling by Amphi when we tried to dig into the records of the district's real estate deals, it would seem the board could use someone like Wright to begin to clean out an moribund administration.
AND AS LONG WE'RE GIVING ADVICE: The state Attorney General's Office determined last week that Jim Irvin, the megawealthy Republican on his way to buying a seat on the three-member Arizona Corporation Commission, violated campaign finance law by failing to disclose that he'd loaned his campaign $105,000 way back in December of last year.
Had this wealthy creep bothered to inform the Secretary of State of the loan, Democrat Barbara Sherman, who is facing Irvin, would have had a chance to try to match Irvin's loan. But Irvin didn't bother filing the proper paperwork until the end of September, limiting Sherman's fundraising ability.
Irvin is the same plutocratic scumbag who also tried to buy the Secretary of State's office back in '94. He's hoping his wallet alone will land him a job as a watchdog for consumers. We hope Arizonans reject this gold-plated piece of crap.
ETHICAL SWAMP: Democrat Brian Fagin, who has made ethics reform the cornerstone of his race for one of two House seats in northeastern District 13, seems to have an ethical problem of his own--a tendency to twist the truth.
Fagin recently mailed out an excerpt from a Tucson Citizen editorial that reads as if the afternoon nearly-daily endorsed him. Well, they did, sort of--but only in the Democratic primary. In the general election, the Citizen went with Democratic incumbent Andy Nichols and Republican Scott Kirtley.
Fagin has also said he began a private law practice in Arizona in 1988, which we find curious, given that he wasn't admitted to the bar in Arizona until December 19, 1995.
Sorry, Brian, but when you want to lay into others with your ethical bullshit, you're holding yourself up to a higher standard--one which you don't seem to be reaching.
ANNEXATION SCAM--PRELUDE TO ROCKING K: The annexation bureaucrats of the City of Tucson, in their never-ending quest to extend borders and enrich developers, have injected a new twist in the process. They're about to rezone a piece of property while it's still in the county! It's a scam designed to get the property owner to go along with the annexation.
City annexation czar John Jones is offering the deal to the current owners of the old Sunset Dairy on Sunset Road west of Interstate 10. This lovely addition to our fair town will include a gravel pit, cement plant, and landfill--all on 128 gorgeous acres.
The bureaucrats say they need this piece to complete a 351-acre chunk that would have Tucson's border abutting Marana's.
This one has lots of Pima County officials howling, including supervisors Ed Moore and Raul Grijalva, and the concept has yet to be tested in court. But it will be--and it looks like one lawsuit we'd favor. Because we're betting this is a prelude to the annexation of legendary land speculator Don Diamond's massive Rocking K development.
After months of haggling, the Pima County supervisors gave Diamond his current zoning. Now, if the city wins this court test, granting Diamond an even better zoning deal will be the price he'll try to extract for city annexation. And expect the four pro-growth and annexation council members to roll over for him. They'll be the same ones who'll buy into the Sunset Dairy deal--George Miller, Michael Crawford, Janet Marcus and Shirley Scott, all of whom believe these annexations are somehow beneficial to the rest of our town. Expect the sane council members--Steve Leal, Molly McKasson, and José Ibarra--having the good sense to vote no.
NICE WORK, JENNIFER: When Jennifer Katleman began reporting on the Pima County beat for the Tucson Citizen, we were pretty tough on her and some of her stories. But after reading her coverage of the Board of Supervisors races, we've observed some real improvement. She's actually gone beyond the "he-said, she-said" crap most dailies produce and tried to reveal some of the BS floating in these campaigns.
Thanks, Jennifer. And if you keep it up, you can probably look forward to working for a real newspaper someday.
TUCSON HELD HOSTAGE: A while back we noted the poor service we've gotten from U S Worst, the corporate stiff that passes for a phone company in this burg. Of course space does not permit us to reprint the flood of letters that ensued, but we wish to thank those who were ticked off enough to vent in writing.
In light of recent reports the phone company allegedly has overcharged consumers by $6.7 million, its lack of dedication to quality would seem to be doubly delinquent.
Does this sound familiar? One woman writes:
"We recently moved here from New York. Upon arriving I called the phone company to set up service. I was given a phone number and promptly called our moving company, which was crossing the country with everything we owned, and which needed to stay in touch with us. I also left our new number on the answering machines of family and friends. After about a week, our phone had not rung once. And I couldn't call anyone back home directly, because our long distance hadn't been hooked up (that's a whole other story). So I called U S West and was told our phone number had been changed!
"When I asked when and if they were ever planning on letting us know this rather important fact, the indignant U S West customer service representative replied, 'Well, don't get mad at me! It's not my fault!' After more than two weeks, we finally had our long-distance service straightened out, or so I thought. I've since received two bills for long-distance calls made from the other phone number. They gave that number to someone else and are sending me the bills. The nightmare continues..."
AND SPEAKING OF FEEBLE MINDS: Then again, maybe appealing to the lowest common denominator is the way to go, judging by what shows up in The Skinny's mailbox.
For example, some pathetic mush-for-brains type in the militia movement recently sent us a nice, thick packet of what passes for hot political dish among the paranoid crowd these days.
Among the items:
All U.S. presidents who've been the victims of assassination or assasination attempt (except, oddly enough, Franklin Roosevelt) were really the targets of a sinister, century-and-a-half-long plot by international bankers.
The trillion-dollar U.S. deficit is not the result of our spending more than we earn, but is, instead, due to a sinister cabal of international bankers who own the Federal Reserve System and who ultimately collect all our money. (What they supposedly do with all this money--which by now must include all wealth on planet earth--is never discussed in the wacko literature.)
In the recent presidential primary, Pat Buchanan actually won the Arizona vote, only to have the election victory stolen from him by a sinister conspiracy which may have included--gasp!--the League of Women Voters! (And we thought they were just a bunch of hot babes.)
There is some evidence to suspect U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno is actually in the employ of sinister forces at the United Nations. (What's with all these hot babes, anyway?)
Dynamic presidential candidate Bob Dole may be involved in a sinister conspiracy with "Jewish leaders" to reduce the United States to a third-rate power. (Why, we're not entirely sure, unless it has something to do with Dole and those Israeli studs getting all the hot babes.)
President Bill Clinton may be involved in a sinister conspiracy of drug dealing, bribery and murder which has led to the mysterious deaths of not only Vince Foster, but Commerce Secretary Ron Brown and at least 16 others. (None of whom, we happily note, were hot babes.)
The United Nations is involved in a sinister plot to conduct urban warfare against U.S. citizens on U.S. soil. Northeast New Mexico and Colorado are hotbeds of sinister U.N. helicopter activity. Meanwhile, sinister Ft. Huachuca near sinister Sierra Vista, Arizona, is among six military bases with recently activated--and totally sinister--concentration camps. (When they come for us, we'd like to bunk with the hot babes, please.)
The sinister New World Order plans to use as sex slaves--and we quote--"Christians, Patriots, Constitutionalists, the militias, gun-owners, and those who garden and put by food." (There's another pointless hot-babe joke here, too, but frankly, it's simply dwarfed by the very idea of making sex slaves of gun owners--"Put out that smelly old cigar and spread 'em, Bubba!")
The sinister Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms is merely a tool of sinister Pentagon stooges working in behalf of the sinister New World Order first described by sinister ex-president George Bush. (Now there's a guy known for his ability to attract hot babes.)
There are "good" Jews and "sinister" Jews, and the latter are more properly called "Mongols" or "Huns" and have, over the thousands of years since Noah's descendants moved north and east out of Israel, intermarried with Europeans for some sinister purpose which may involve controlling television news in a sinister effort to make Americans as stupid as dog poop.
And you wonder why we don't trust those hot-but-sinister news-anchor babes.

Lives in Ontario, Canada with her husband, daughter, two black pugs, one cat and one kitten, empty hamster cage, empty bird cage, and empty fish tank.

Hang in there
I am still here, and the animals have not managed to take over the household! Just a quick note to say hang in there, and please be patient. My "end date" at work has been moved to the end of the month and I will be very busy and travelling and stuff, but I should get back into the swing of things soon. AND my camera card has been returned, so there should be some pics very soon. Not of anything exciting, mind you. In the meantime, talk amongst yourselves and do what I tell my daughter when she is bored. "Sometimes we just have to amuse ourselves". If that doesn't sound like fun, you can come and weed the garden or do housework, because those are the other options I give her too. Tee hee!

In 2014 you will contribute to R19 billion spent in sick leave!
Sounds impossible, I know. I didn't believe it either. But R19 billion is what sick leave costs South African companies a year. This is equal to the amount medical aids paid to suppliers in 2010.
And did you know R57million of that is from employees taking 'sick days' off purely because they just didn't feel like coming in to work?
Stop your employees abusing sick leave today! Our experts will show you how…
A Return to Work Interview is your best weapon against sick leave abuse
By introducing a return to work interview process, you can manage sick leave abuse in your company.
The Labour Law for Managers Loose Leaf Service says it's been proven that a return to work interview is the single biggest deterrent against the abuse of sick leave.
The reason?
It's a 'visible' form of managing or 'policing' the problem. It acts as an early detector of anyone possibly abusing their sick leave.
'Employees become aware that you're watching how many days they're away for and how often they're taking sick leave,' adds the Loose Leaf Service.
So what should you ask your employee when he returns to work?
Here's how to say 'you're fired!' the legal way!
When your employee returns from sick leave, ask him these seven questions
Sick leave abuse is rife in SA. Deal with it by introducing a return to work interview process. And make sure your employee know that you're watching him.

Finally a pencil that sticks to the wet line! I really like this pencil and the color selections. I have the nude, the black and the dark navy colors and use them all. My fave is the navy, it's barely blue almost black color is perfect for the upper wet line for everyday wear. It is just a tad blue, which helps to make your eyes look whiter but not blue enough for people to think you're wearing blue eyeliner. I love defining my top wet line and do it even on light makeup days where I don't wear any liner above my lashes. It's a sneaky way to make lashes look thicker without appearing to wear eyeliner. This can easily be used as any other liner but has the added benefit of staying power in an area that products usually disappear quickly from. One star off because I wish it was an automatic pencil. Sometimes i scratch my eyes with the jagged wood pieces from sharpening, but hey... the saying pain is beauty didn't come from no where.
Wow! Who would have thought this could make such a huge impact! I have this one in walk of shame (such fun names) and use it on my lower waterline and it really opens up my eyes. I have hooded lids so any help I can get in this department is welcomed. This suffering stays put all day which is pretty impressive due to the placement it's intended for. I just tried it on my hand in the store and it wouldn't budge so I bought it and have been in love ever since. Super creamy and doesn't pull or tug. The ONLY reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the lid is not that secure. The couple times I have forgotten to really push it on hard the lid came off in my makeup bag and this stuff is hard to get off the other things it touched but that's a good thing too!
Review for: Legend
Awesome! Best black waterline eyeliner out there. I can't live without it anymore. I will say that I have the most sensitive eyes and this is only very slightly irritating which is a mega-win in my book. I have tried literally EVERYTHING and came to the conclusion eyeliner may not be for me because I have been allergic to every single one I've ever tried (and I've tried hundreds if not thousands) The only three eyeliners I've ever used with a very minor amount of irritation are MAC, UD waterline pencils, and Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof pencil - the MAC and Rimmel have a tiny bit more irritation than UD waterline so - HAPPYDANCE <3
These eyeliners are for everyone! They last through tears, sweat, partying - it's just all around awesome

Where do I even begin with this AMAZING product. I have the type of waterline that basically melts eye pencils. I have a hard time finding a product that stays black all day long. Urban Decay has wowed me with this product for so many reasons. The main reason is it doesn't melt down in my waterline and stays black and in its place all day long. I bought my first pencil back in September 2015, I still have that same pencil and I do my makeup pretty much every single day. You cannot go wrong with this little "legend". It has saved me money and I no longer have to worry about the color in my waterline disappearing. If you are someone who struggles with keeping liner in your waterline, this product will be your new holy grail!
Review for: Walk Of Shame (nude)
The science behind our eyes dictates that a product like this should not work. it's meant to stay moist to keep out debris. so nothing is really going to be long lasting in this area. i probably would've never bought this, but received it in a gift basket, so I tried it. And still use. it's slightly more long wearing than others I've used, but not so much so that i can't find something just as useful much cheaper in the drug store. dark colors in the waterline make the eye appear smaller, and light ones open up the eye and it appears larger. I'm a big fan of this effect for photos. so this gives me a few hours of wear and minimal irritation, watering and redness.
Review for: Walk Of Shame (nude)
Urban Decay, thank you so much for making the most awesome eyeliner I've EVER used! Let me just say that I've used almost every high-end brand eyeliner out there and nothing even comes close to this. I own 3 sticks of Zero and after I apply it in the morning, it lasts all day. I no longer have to worry about my eyeliner smudging off--instead, it's AMAZING that I always look my best. In addition, the application is soooo smooth. I was skeptical at first about the liner because the pencil was really soft and applied SUPER pigmented. But after one trial, I was completely hooked. Thank you, Urban Decay, I can't stop raving about your 24/7 liners!
Review for: Rail
I have a very hard time keeping eyeliner on and trust me I have tried it ALL. When I saw this I was very skeptical to try it. I own almost every color of the other Urban decay eyeliners and although they are lovely , they usually just melted down my face( even with primer). So I tried this on my regular routine and I was shocked to see how well it lasted! It literally stayed on all day. I have 3 colors and all have worked exactly the same. They go on well, the color is bold and very noticeable and the best part is although I had to wipe under my eyes here and there, it was nothing like my other eyeliners. This is a great product!
I love Urban Decay! Every holiday they come out with their vaults! OMG! I finally purchased the eyeliner vault and I'm in eyeliner heaven! One of the most awesome eyeliner looks you can do is to use a variety of eyeliners on your eyelids at one time. You can do a rainbow theme, whatever colors you like and trust me, you will get compliments! Just use your Urban Decay portion primer and slay that eyeliner right on eyelids where you normally where eyeliner. And if you're feeling extra....slay your waterline! Smoke it out even! Lol! I recommend Urban Decay 24 hour wear eyeliners to all who wants to slay the makeup game!
Review for: Rail
I just can't use eyeliner below my bottom lashes or it's hitting my cheeks well before noon. I always line my waterline instead. Most pencils fade away pretty quickly, but the UD 24/7 Waterline pencils stay in place all day. I do find that I need to touch up when going from day to night (example- from work to dinner), but that is not too unreasonable to me. I like this color in particular because black looks a little harsh for everyday on me. Rail is a nice dark brown that works with most of my neutral, everyday eye looks. I do wish there was a wider variety of shades to play with in this line.
Review for: Street
I tried out this product on my lid and waterline and was happy to see it stay put. The liner glides on smooth and precise and when it dries, it doesn't smudge at all. I tested it for an entire day and, while many liners I put in my waterline smudge or disappear, the UD Waterline color stayed for the entire eight hour day.
I also recommend it for people who have oily eyelids and are having trouble finding the perfect eyeliner, as this would be perfect for you. Since it's already formulated to stay in the waterline, it will truly stay on your lid as well without smudging or transferring.

How long does it last? Does it smudge ?
is this a great eyeliner for the waterline? I've been searching for an eyeliner that won't smudge right away and ruin may eye makeup.. thanks in advance!
Does it really work?
Does this eyeliner last a long time?
I never have good luck with keeping eyeliner on my waterline! Have you had success keeping this on your waterline when others won't stay?

New Delhi, Feb. 14: The high-level core group on divestment will go ahead with all pre-sales activities for Asansol-based wagon maker Burn Standard despite the Supreme Courts decision to halt divestment in all companies which were nationalised by an act of Parliament.
The core group, which comprises a group of secretaries headed by the cabinet secretary, is asking merchant bankers to the sale UTI Bank to prepare a shareholders memorandum for Burn Standard. Firming up the shareholders memorandum is considered to be the last step before putting any state-run company on the block.
It is significant that the government has decided to go ahead with this move. It is a signal and there will be more such moves to complete the groundwork needed to put up more PSUs for sale that had been halted by the Supreme Court, said officials.
The disinvestment ministry is sure of getting the apex courts clearance within the next few months if not weeks and will start the selloff process with a vengeance once elections are over. Consequently, the unit wants to keep all work on this front ready.
Once the apex court decides to allow the government to go ahead with its privatisation programme, the disinvestment ministry has plans to put 24 firms on the block. Besides the two oil marketing giants, HPCL and BPCL, these include tea and engineering firm Balmer Lawrie and a clutch of ITDC hotels.
Scared of being sold off to what they feel might be a private entrepreneur interested in stripping the asset-rich company of its valuable real estate and other resources, Burn Standard officers and employees have, since last year, been pleading that the railway ministry take over the firm as it is the principal manufacturer of wagons for the Indian Railways.
However, instead of Burn Standard, the railways is considering a proposal to take over Mokameh and Muzaffarpur units of Bharat Wagon & Engineering Ltd as its captive units.
These two units fall in areas where Samata Party leader and railway minister Nitish Kumar hold sway.
Compared with Burn Standard, Bharat Wagons is in a poor shape. While Burn Standard has three units with machinery in good condition, Bharat wagons is in a ramshackled state.
Bharat Wagons has run up losses of Rs 30 crore in the last three years, while Burn Standard made a marginal loss of just Rs 24 lakh in 2002-03 and is expected to make a small profit in 2003-04.
Burn Standard, one of the largest wagon manufacturers in the country with an installed capacity of 8661 four-wheeler units and 1800 workers, has two major engineering units located at Howrah and Burnpur, besides refractory units located in West Bengal, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh and Tamil Nadu.
Besides, Burn Standard has an offshore platform fabrication yard at Jellingham in the Midnapore district.
It is backed by composite infrastructure to manufacture special wagons for transporting alumina powder, cement, fertiliser, milk (in stainless steel tank) and tank wagon for the transportation of liquefied petroleum gas. It also has a steel foundry to manufacture cast steel bogies and couplers for wagons.
Once the core group gives a go-ahead to the sale, the government will sell some 60 per cent stake in the Asansol-based Burn Standard which, in turn, is a 100 per cent subsidiary of Bharat Bhari Udyog Ltd, a holding PSU for several engineering firms.

Boca Baker Invites You To Celebrate The Royal Wedding With Free Cake
If you're still waiting for the Queen to e-mail you a royal invitation to the wedding of the century, you may have to come to terms with the fact that you're not invited.

Passion for Pastry at Boca's Town Center Mall is offering everyone a slice of chiffon wedding cake this Friday from 2:00 - 4:00 p.m. in honor of the happy couple. The bakery, located in the Bloomingdale's wing of the mall, is baking up a giant five foot wedding cake, decorated with English roses for the occasion.
Drop by, wish the young couple well (they're going to need all the good karma they can muster) and enjoy a piece of wedding cake. See? Not even a gift is necessary.

I am so depressed that I want to kill myself right now in this moment, but I always thought of the Lord, all His blessings, His love for me, and His gift of life He has given for me. However, I haven't find myself, my happiness, and why do I have this life. Because every time I wake up, I ask the Lord, why am I like this? Why am I not so important? Why am I so worthless that people keep on bullying me? Lord, please give me the strength I need. I am truly sorry for all the sins I have done. I never want to hurt you. Please, I love you, Lord. I need you so bad.

St. Paul's Church
St. Paul's is known to be the first Arab-Anglican church in the region.
The church was built in 1873 with the support of the Church Missionary Society of England (CMS) during the episcopacy of the Rt. Revd Samuel Gobat. The church was consecrated for use in public worship on November 29, 1874.
St. Paul's was in regular use by Arabic speaking Anglicans until 1948, when members of the congregation found they could not easily get to the church as it was on the west side of the "green line" dividing Jordanian East and Israeli West parts of Jerusalem.
The congregation began to worship at Christ Church, Jaffa Gate for a few years. In 1953 the congregation of St. Paul's became, by formal agreement, part of the ministry of the Cathedral of St. George in East Jerusalem. Prior to renovation and reconsecration in March of 2011, St. Paul's Church had not been in use for regularly scheduled worship since 1948.
With the re-opening of the Church, Bishop Dawani continues to encourage the reconciliation and mutual respect of all people. Canon Hosam Naoum, Pastor to the Arabic Congregation at the Cathedral, holds regular worship services in Arabic at 11am on Wednesdays and has provided tours for interested Jewish neighbors.
In ecumenical fellowship, the church will also be used by other Christian worshipping groups.
For information, please call The Very Revd Hosam Naoum at the Diocesan Offices in Jerusalem, 02 627 1670.

BLACKBURN and Darwen Police Amateur Boxing Club enjoyed fresh success when they staged a special fund-raising show at Audley Sport and Community Centre.
And up-and-coming prospect Adil Ifthikhar, boxing on the home show for the first time against Oldham's Afzal Hussain from Oldham ABC, saw him deliver another powerful performance.
It was an all-action contest from the first bell as his opponent began strongly with some strong backhand combinations and the Blackburn lad had to dig deep early on.
The second round, though, saw 17-year-old Ifthikhar using his straight lead to the head and rear hand to the body as Hussain finally went on the retreat.
In the final round, Ifthikhar kept up the pressure, eventually outclassing his opponent and landing the fight by a unanimous points decision.
The oldest member of the team Amar Ayad, 18, also got the nod from the judges, beating Junaid Ahmed from North Side ABC.
While Ayad's rival attacked in bursts, he had prepared well for his opponent, beating him to the punch from several different angles to out box him.
Kieran Hunter, 15, also impressed and he was only just denied, the points decision going in the favour of his opponent Pat Brown from Sale West ABC.
It had certainly proved an even bout, and Hunter put in a brave performance only just to be denied.
Adeeb Zulfiqar is also a young talent beginning to impress and the 14-year-old made it successive wins, overcoming Matt Purcell from Moss Side Fire Station ABC.
Adeeb used his clever footwork skills very well to stay out of distance in the ring and out wit his opponent.
"It was a brilliant display from the lads, and I was really happy with all of them," said Head coach and club founder Yaqoob Hussain MBE.
"We had eleven good quality bouts and there was a lot of talent on show."
Mr Hussain added that he would like to thank Mamas Pizzas, Accrington Road, Blackburn, who have agreed to sponsor the club's track suits.
One of the owners, Ansar Khan, made the presentation at the club.
Mr Hussain said he was very grateful to Blackburn with Darwen Council for allowing them use of Audley Sports Centre for the boxing show.

Only $5 to see a Meallica show? Yup, you read that right.
The band is filming a 3D movie and have added another show to their Vancouver line-up in order to shoot additional footage. The show will take place on Monday, August 27th.
Metallica posted on their official website: "This Monday, August 27, we will be shooting what we hope will be the final live portion of the movie and have our last chance for quite some time to play on the gigantic, massive over-the-top stage that we rolled out in Mexico City, took to Edmonton and end our film excursion/mini tour with in Vancouver. As we have been saying a lot recently we would love to have you join us and be a part of our movie making adventure. Here's how it works: We will be running though the full live show one last time at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, but unlike the Friday and Saturday shows there will be lots of breaks in it to allow for cameras and lights to be repositioned as the director sees fit. Since it is way more fun for us to have YOU there, tickets will be available for just $5 (no extra fees or service charges!) and all the proceeds will benefit the Greater Vancouver Food Bank." The band has indicated that there will be several interruptions throughout the show to adjust cameras and prep for more footage to be shot.
However, some people have been taking advantage of the ridiculously low ticket prices and are scooping them up for $5, then charging as much as $50 per ticket. According to CTV British Columbia, several posts have been put on Craigslist asking for ten times the sale price.

Kind of curious how far this trend has gone.

Kind of curious how far this trend has gone.
The bodyspray/shower substitute kind
Always wanted an axe. I've only ever had a chainsaw. Axes are so much cooler. :(
Which one?
A machete, i wish tho
i have a hatchet, if that counts
Cool. What make?
Odd. Why not a Glock.
no ı dnt
I don't own an axe
Yes. I keep that shit under my pillow ready to slay at a moments notice 😈😈😈
Axe... sword, hatchet, K-bar, Seal Pup, balisong, two switchblades, three throwers, lost count of how many firearms after 30, 10-20k rounds of ammo...
Yeah, don't really even care if I remember to lock my door at night.
Of course, what kind of man wouldn't own an ax? I even sharpen it after each use.
just a small one handed splitting axe.
My dad has a hatchet, but not for any reason other than cutting wood
Didn't realize it was a trend. I do have a large hatchet my dad made for me.
I have 1 axe 3 swords 3 bows 1 shotgun
Not unless I was wood cutting on my own farm. lol
If I owned any weapon, it'd be a sword! I really really want to learn fencing!
I keep a hatchet in my gun safe.
no, but i have several swords
Which ones?
a couple katana and a scimitar
I own many tools
Yes, I owned one of Rory Mercury's Axe from Gate and is 1:1 real life scale prop.
No, i have a machete.
Which one?
The thin one.
I own dick with two balls attached between my legs
Did you just say having an axe is a trend? Bro, all men should have an axe. It's for actually doing work and not for some trend.
This sounds suspiciously hipster.

What is JotForm?

At JotForm, we want to make sure that you're getting the online form builder help that you need. Our friendly customer support team is available 24/7.

If you'd like help immediately, feel free to search for a similar question, or submit your question or concern.
Registration Entries DoubleAsked by wluzzi on February 03, 2015 at 10:18 AM
The reason I am getting all the entries twice is because candidates are submitting their registrations for different workshops highlighted in the drop box of the form (one per workshop) and they click "back" to submit a new one.
I used to use Adobe and there was an option where once the person clicks "submit" the form goes to a new empty one in 3 seconds. Can I find something like this somewhere here? Otherwise I will have to find a different source.
JotForm Support
You can accomplish that effect by setting up the form itself as the thank You page of your form
1. Click on "Setup and Embed" tab on the form builder toolbar
2. Click on "Thank You" button on toolbar
3. Select "Custom URL" and click "Next"
4. Enter URL of the webpage where the form is already embedded or enter the Form's direct link
Please check this form demo to see the effect
This will allow you users to be redirected to a new clear form upon completing their submission. You can also include a link to your form in the thank you page for them to click to take your users to a new form.
That's the surprising part because I did this part before I embeded the form on the site. The URL was added and it showed our site. I checked again and changed it for the page with the same form.
I'll keep you posted.
cheers David

free information seminar
Everyday, erratic rock holds a free information seminar in Puerto Natales.
*Important notice for trekkers:
Torres del Paine National is now requiring you to have all campsite
reservations in advance. Contact the following three organizations for reservations. We recommend writing them an email directly if the online reservation system does not function correctly.
Affectionately nick-named 'the 3 o'clock talk', the info sessions cover details about Torres del Paine, weather, equipment, trail food, packing, refugios, trekking, climbing, transportation, the catamaran and anything else you can think of for Torres del Paine and trekking in Patagonia. Join our guides everyday at 3pm for a cup of coffee and the facts about how Patagonia is put together. What started as just 'sit-down' advice sessions with travelers staying at the hostel,
has now turned into a vital 1.5 hour visit to the erratic rock Base Camp.
The seminar not only is informative, but it is a great chance to find other trekkers, share tips and information. The talk starts off explaining the options for just getting to and from Torres del Paine. The park entrance is 2.5 hours from Puerto Natales, with nothing but pampa and
mountains in between. From there you need to access thetrail from the main road - there are three ways of doing this. Then there are the trail conditions, the paid campsites, the free campsites,the refugios. The water, the weather and animals. Then there is equipment - what to bring, and what not to. Then food. Where do you locate shopping, or climbing permits, the border crossings, recycling issues or waste management... Come by the Base Camp, everyday at 3pm local time, and check it out.
Join the rucksack revolution...

Good communications , or a lack of it in the NHS
This organisation needs radical surgery to get itself operating efficiently. Time and again it wastes money by messing up appointments, not having people where they should be, not having the data communicated between staff etc. It MADDENS me that sick people should be additionally stressed as a result of idiots who cannot run a business properly. They would save BILLIONS if patient records were shared electronically between health care staff (consultants, doctors, nurses, car service personnel and ambulance crews). It is not rocket science.
I have no fundamental issue with caring people trying to do their best, but they are totally hindered by the lack of decent communications at all levels.
In the 21st century, any organisation as bad as the National Health Service today would be in administration by now and its bosses sacked. NHS sort yourselves out!

Too many Bosses and admin staff and not and enough people doing the real work at the coal face. This is a British Sickness, no wonder we are in a mess

Agreed we have many good doctors and nurses. We also have a VERY POOR system of communication in the NHS that could so easily be improved.

Sorry to hear that John. Hope the NHS can sort things out for you.
- Wed Apr 03, 02:01:00 pm GMT+1
Be careful what you wish for. History proves - Big Government can't do anything efficiently. Give them the ability to electronically store and move your most private information and not only will they screw that up, things you don't want anyone else to know will start leaking out like sand in a sieve. What works is competition with sensible yet minimal Government regulation and oversight. Then, if your health care solution isn't working for you, go buy it from somewhere else - nope, can't do that in the self-perpetuating single payer behemoth you're stuck with today.

From Yayoi Kusama to Glenn Ligon, 7 Artists Using Light in Radical Ways
Artsy Editorial
Method Random is a series of chromogenic prints that have been generated by computational methods that attempt to create randomness. Random number genera- tors (RNG) are essential algorithms for a large number of applications from encryption and security to simulation, jury selection, double-blind trials, statistical sampling, game theory and many others. While the sum of all colours picked by different RNG algorithms generates a neutral gray, pat- terns can be discerned when massive number of pixels can be seen simultaneously. These prints show how human perception of organization can often spot the fundamental difficulty for computers to appear unpredictable.

Electronic artist Rafael Lozano-Hemmer's public art installations combine technology, architecture, and performance using devices like robotics, projections, and cell phones. He constructs "temporary anti-monuments for alien agency," as in Pulse Tank (2008), in which heart rate sensors send ripples across the surface of water, or the Guggenheim's 2009 installation Levels of Nothingness, which allowed people to speak into a computer that linked voice traits to colors that were projected across the room. His Vectorial Elevation (1999), in which 800,000 participants created searchlight sculptures above Mexico City, may well be the world's largest interactive artwork ever.

It is designed to change the system wide proxy setting and to bypass ssl certificate pinning. Currently this is available for iOS device 8 and later only. You can found more detail on the official blog referenced below: Here I am going for an in-depth tutorial starting from the setting up the mobile assistant to using it.

Network Security VAPT Checklist
Hi Guys, there are very few technical network security assessment checklist. So I thought to share my own on this. Have a look and enjoy. Lets talk about the scope first. If you are given a 1000 machines to perform VAPT, then here is your scope. Single machine can have 65535 ports open. Any single port can deploy any service software from the world. For example FTP can be run on smartftp, pureftpd etc.. Any single FTP software version (for example pureftpd 1.0.22) can have number of vulnerabilities available. So if you multiply all of these, then it is impossible for any auditor to go ahead and probe all ports manually and find services manually. Even if he/she is able to do it, it is impossible to check all vulnerabilities that are pertaining to a single port of a single machine. Hence we have to rely on scanners such as nexpose, nessus, openvas, coreimpact etc. Here are some quick tools and test cases that one can perform on commonly found ports in the network pentest.

The idea for this post came from a discussion with pretzellogic here:
eg can we say 哥们儿 without sounding weird, getting laughed at? What would be the reception?
..it got me to thinking about what's going to sound unnatural and strange to Chinese ears coming from a laowai?
Thought it would be interesting to create a list if possible of such words/ phrases, as well as discuss where you may or may not get away with it, why, etc.

text: I'm 19 years old and have ordered a new A3 (Lucky I know), I was told a few weeks ago that the order on my new A3 has been delayed 2 months. I made the mistake of selling my previous car early, but did not need it while at university. I'm now home for the summer, and am now car less (was due to be delivered end of may/beginning of June). I have visited my Audi dealer a number of times for updates etc, and the youngish lad that sold me my car has been very sympathetic towards me and has tried his best to do everything in his power to sort out a temporary car. However, I visited my local Audi dealer (Priory Park, Hull) 2 days ago and spoke to the Head of Sales as the person that sold me the car is on holiday (I have spoken to the head of sales before and found him to be very unhelpful and rude). I went into his office with my friend waiting for me. I asked the head of sales if there was anyway of getting a temporary car sooner than they had offered (3rd week in June). I told him i was desperate for a car and would be willing to pay for rental fees of the first few weeks. He then said he could not get me a car and wouldn't explain to me why (he has also not told me why my car has been delayed even after asking numerous times). However, I know someone that had recently bought an audi and his car was delayed 2 days and he was given the replacement of an Audi TT for these 2 days. I explained this to the salesman, only for him to start shouting at me asking "Do you want a car for 2 days! DO YOU WANT A CAR FOR 2 DAYS" He carried on to tell me it was my fault for selling my car too early. I became very frustrated and told him that I had not complained at all, until my car was due and I was to become carless. My friend interuped the dealers antics to say "Excuse me, dont speak to him like that" Only to have the response: "Who are YOU and what do YOU have to do with this?", my friend replied "I'm his best friend, and don't speak to me like that" The dealer than calmed down and said he would try to get a car earlier for me. I would never have expected to be spoken to by a salesman in this way, and if this is the way I am going to be treated at Audi, I feel I should cancel my order. I'm extremely disapointed and frustrated that I was spoken to in this manner, for the reason, i feel, is because I am young. What should I do about this Age-Prejudiced salesman? I have thought about writing a letter to his boss. Sorry for the essay, but i'm sure you can understand my frustration, I'd appreciate any feedback/advice on this matter.
