I love the green! I'm not a blue girl. | ||||
Ooops gumby cen sor ed me....was just sayin' that green is the best color there is period. G o d found it quite useful when he decorated our planet and blue is perfect compliment!! My first thought when I saw the abundance of that hue that matches marsh was a bit lesser though...I saw self painting over green stripes in bathroom and minimizing some of it's impact to a slight accent.... That and the simpler act of removing and replacing a few art things here and there....but seaglass greens and blues? What could be better at a beachy home.....prefer subtler aqua hues myself....like the 2004DH MB...cream and aqua take me away!!!

So, for Kenys first RP we have decided a whole bunch of stuff, and nothing, all at the same time. The GM position is tainted with a whole bunch of I dont want the responsibility, so I think our goal is to play this sandbox style. We can decide OOC what we all want the main goal to be and how we plan on forcing the characters to grow and destroy things/create things. I dont mind adding posts and NPCs to move things along, but I also wont hate on anyone else who gets the inspiration to do the same.
The Ideas that have been thrown around are Boardwalk Empire, Boardwalk Empire with Zombies, Fallout and Fallout with Lycans/Vampires. While all of these ideas are amazing and I would be willing to participate in any of them I believe Fallout is the winner. Unless you all decide otherwise below. Fallout 1? 2? 3? New Vegas? Combination, just use the world? Where should we start? What kind of characters are you guys thinking?
This thread is to make the idea concrete and to see who wants to participate.

Did the Media Miss the Bubble? Did Saddam Lose His Last War?
Steven Pearlstein often has insightful columns, not today. He discusses a conference he attended in which a repeated theme was how the media contributed to the crisis with its poor reporting. He then comments: "although it's a bit overdone, I'll admit there is a dollop of truth in it."
A "dollop?" How about an enormous ocean full of truth to it and Pearlstein continues to contribute to the crisis today by covering up the earlier failure. He tells readers that:
"Three years after the onset of what was then thought of as the "subprime crisis," there remarkably is still no consensus on why it happened, who is to blame, how necessary the government bailouts were and what needs to be done to prevent such a cataclysm from happening again. Over time, the issues have been overwhelmed by populist anger, infused with political ideology, distorted by partisan maneuvering and special-interest pleading, and ultimately eclipsed by economic recovery."
Yeah, it's all really really complicated. Except it isn't.
Nationwide house prices had diverged from a 100-year long trend, increasing by more than 70 percent in real terms. There was no remotely plausible explanation for this run-up. What is hard to to understand to about this? What is complicated? Third grade arithmetic was all that was needed. It's simple, not complicated.
The run-up in house prices was driving the economy. This was also really easy to see. The government publishes GDP data every quarter. The data showed that housing construction had exploded as a share of the economy. You just had to look at the data. It's simple, not complicated.
The data also showed that consumption was booming and savings had fallen to near zero. This was driven by the well-known housing wealth effect. It's simple, not complicated.
It was also easy to see the explosion in subprime and Alt-A loans that people were using to buy homes they could not otherwise afford. These loans were sure to reset at higher interest rates. This works until house prices stop rising. It's simple, not complicated.
And, it was easy to see that house prices would stop rising. Vacancy rates were running at record levels. There is a concept called "supply and demand" in economics and the data showed that we had serious amounts of excess supply. It's simple, not complicated.
And when house prices started to fall, we knew that millions of loans would go bad, construction would plummet and consumption would fall back to more normal levels. This implied a really bad recession and serious financial problems. It's simple, not complicated.
So, Pearlstein is badly misleading reading when he tells us that it is all very complicated. Obviously the buffoons and hacks who either could not see the bubble or deliberately misled the public about it have good reason to tell everyone that it is all very complicated, but it isn't and was not. They did not do their job.
Include the Post high on the list of those who did not do their job. They had no space in their pages for anyone warning of the dangers of the bubble. The paper's main source for information on the housing market was David Lereah, the chief economist of the National Association of Realtors and the author of Why the Real Estate Boom Will Not Bust and How You Can Profit From it.
The Post and the rest of the media failed disastrously at their job to inform the public and they continue to do so. It's simple, not complicated.

If you be inflicted with a affair, it is valuable to know all the uncommon ways you can make financing. One way to make the money your affair needs to consider is invoice factoring.

We are picky about our Mexican food! My wife and I have eaten several times here and the food is always good. It also seems popular with the Auburn University students. Prices are good and the food is plentiful.
We are picky about our Mexican food! My wife and I have eaten several times here and the food is always good. It also seems popular with the Auburn University students. Prices are good and the food is plentiful.
Had a fantastic time with family and friends! The food was delicious! The service was fast and friendly! Will definatlely recommend this restuarant!
Best Mexican food I've had recently in Auburn. The wait staff knows what they're doing and the food is fast, fresh-tasting and very flavorful. It was a great lunch in a clean orderly professional environment. We will certainly be back.
Enjoyed this restaurant for lunch. Food was flavorful and good pricing. Service was fast. Will definitely try them again!
Reasonably priced, good service, wide menu, well-prepared food. Usually very busy around 6-7 pm, and the noise level is quite high when crowded.
You see one Mexican restaurant menu you've pretty much seen them all. El Dorado doesn't stray too far from the norm, offering familiar combos, fajita platters and the usual tacos, burritos, enchiladas and nachos on an extensive menu. There seem to be a few more shrimp items than the usual Mexican restaurant. I had the Enchiladas Verde, four steak enchiladas... More
Had a discount posted on the sign to get the second meal at 20% discount. Glad we stopped in. Chips and salsa were great. Our food was very tasty and the service was fantastic. (even for a weekend night!) We have been back several times since and have no complaints.
I am normally not a huge fan of Mexican food but the tacos that I had recently at El Dorado were very fresh and delicious. My husband and his cousin ordered larger dinners and both of them cleaned their plates. It happened to be our cousin's birthday and the restaurant comped a huge dessert, which was plenty for two or... More
I especially like mexican food and usually eat it when we travel. This trip was no exception and I'm glad we ate there. I ordered #24 with a side of beans and rice and I couldn't eat it all. Had to get a go box. We were traveling in our motorhome and I warmed it up later that night. It... More

Sunstroked by Lex Valentine Tales of the Darkworld Book 6 m/m erotic werewolf/fae romance Cover Art by Winterheart Design When wildling Corey Green discovers his mate is Seth Dylan, a tough as nails, dour werewolf from the McCallan clan, he thinks his life is set. However, Seth's not out and doesn't know if he wants to be. A pivotal sexual encounter between the men has Seth running scared and leaves Corey broken hearted. The men meet again nearly two years later and this time Seth's out but Corey's dark depression is about to send him behind the Veil of the Jewel Box to the fae world. Seth's determined to make up for running out on Corey, but the wildling's sunny disposition has gone so dark it may be too late for them to build a life together. With love on his side, Seth sets out return the sunshine to Corey's soul.
Warning: Contains two hot gay men who love sunshine, sex that makes the plants and trees grow, and a big bad wolf who will do anything to win the man he loves.
Author's Note: The Tales books up to Common Ground (#5) can stand alone, but read together provide the reader with a comprehensive view of the characters and their family dynamics. With this book (#6), the series takes a turn toward each book being less stand alone. You can read Sunstroked without the others but there will be things you may not understand if you've not read Common Ground or Hot Water or Fire Season. Common Ground in particular is key to Sunstroked, most especially the epilogue. Excerpt With a deep, silent sigh, Seth watched his lover close the door and lock it. When he turned, his steel blue gaze swept from Seth's feet to his face. They stared at one another in silence and heat wreathed Seth's groin.
Corey Green had to be the most beautiful man Seth had ever seen. And his looks weren't even half his appeal. If the man hadn't been so incredibly nice on top of his sexiness, Seth wouldn't have even considered losing his virginity to the guy. But he knew, just as he knew his own innate sexuality, that being with Corey was right. His sense of destiny galloped headlong toward Corey's bedroom, carrying Seth toward something he wanted with a fierceness that made every muscle in his body tremble.
He wanted what was to come, needed it. The darkness he'd lived in his entire life had brightened the moment Corey had spoken to him, and Seth didn't want to go back to the dark. He wanted to walk in the sun for the first time, maybe the only time, in his life. Corey represented happiness and pleasure and freedom, all things that had been in short supply throughout Seth's life. Tomorrow he'd think about whether he should continue to deny his sexuality. Tomorrow he'd figure out what to do for the rest of his life. Tonight, all he wanted was pleasure. The pleasure he and his lover would give each other…
"You're thinking too much," Corey murmured and wrapped one hand around the back of Seth's head, drawing him closer. "You just need to feel. Feel and enjoy."
Seth let Corey pull him close. His heart pounded so hard he wondered if Corey could hear it. As the wildling's mouth came down on his, Seth had the sense that the sun had emerged from behind a cloud. Searing heat flushed his body as if the sun beat down on his skin. With a sigh, Seth surrendered to the teasing lick of Corey's tongue, opening his mouth to invite his lover inside. Their tongues twined and joy shot through Seth. A simple kiss had never felt so good.
When Corey broke off the kiss, Seth moaned in protest. With a chuckle, Corey threaded his fingers with Seth's and led the way upstairs. The bedroom stood in shadow, the setting sun slanting only a few faint rays through the open window. Corey flicked on the bedside lamp and the room filled with a golden light.
"Tell me what you want."
Corey's voice held a softness and caring that sent a shudder through Seth. So few people in his life had cared about him. For this man whom he'd just met to openly show he cared about Seth's feelings, wants, and desires, sent a wave of nameless emotion through him. Although they'd not done much yet, Seth already teetered on overload. Yet, he welcomed it. His past would be set aside from this moment onward. He would look to the future and look inside himself for the answers, and not look to his pack or his family to supply the blueprint for his life.
"I want it all."
His stark words were met with a glorious smile. The curving of Corey's generous, sexy lips made Seth's mouth water.
"Well, of course you do," Corey said, brushing his fingers through Seth's unruly hair. "And I'm perfectly willing to be a sexual smorgasbord, but where do you want to start? What do you want to do first?"
Seth reached up and locked his fingers around Corey's wrist, feeling the thrum of the wildling's blood beneath his fingertips. "Have you ever had a virgin before?" he asked, his heart suddenly aching to know where he stood with Corey.
Two hands cupped his face for a brief moment, a fleeting caress meant to soothe.
"No, I haven't. But you're special. I sensed it immediately," Corey replied honestly, his steel blue eyes serious. "I want to show you how wonderful this can be. I want to show you what you feel is not wrong. How can pleasure be wrong? It is no one's place to sit in judgment on another especially with regard to acts of pleasure between two consenting adults. You're not a freak, Seth. You're just a man with healthy desires. Other men will want to be with you. I want to be with you. And there is nothing wrong with that. Let me show you how good it can be."
Seth pondered Corey's words for a moment, recognizing the truth in them. The darkness within him lightened. He stretched out a hand and laid it on Corey's hip.
"I want to touch and be touched."

WNY Police Department signs first contract since 2009
The West New York Police Department signed a contract April 13 negotiated between the town and its Police Supervisors Association after operating without contract since July 1, 2009, Lieutenant Mark Flores reported.
Though the contract is retroactive from July 1, 2009 and valid through 2014, the association conceded 18 months of retroactive pay between July 1, 2009 and Dec. 31, 2011. They will receive a three percent raise across the board each year starting Jan. 1, 2012.
"In this way, the contract benefits both the association and the town," Flores said.
Members of the police department will no longer be able to bank their unused vacation days as they used to. Any days they do not use during the course of the year will not roll over into the following year. "This way, those set to retire cannot use their accumulated vacation days right before they leave," Flores said. "This way the town won't have to compensate."
He continued that overall, it was a pleasure dealing with the town and that he is happy to have finally come to an amicable and mutually beneficial agreement.
"It's long overdue and justly done," Mayor Dr. Felix Roque said. "They put their lives in harms way on a daily basis and they deserve this."

Food and Farm
350 Food and Farm
Food, and how we produce and consume it, presents both a challenge and a solution to climate change. Food systems, particularly in developed countries, represent one of the top sources of greenhouse gasses. This makes a lot of sense, considering how food is a core part of human life, and because climate change is so linked to the ways in which we humans have become accustomed to live.
But yes, food can be a solution: food and farm-related climate actions are fun, they bring people together, and they show everyone that eating right is a real, personal, everyday way to fight global warming. Join in on the fun and host a 350 event on your farm, at your local community garden, or with neighbors in your backyard garden. Or, host an eat-in: a public potluck to bring people in your community together to share local food. All you need to do is take a 350 photo (and send it to us)!
For more information about the links between climate change and food and farming, read on:
Food shortages and climate impacts
In many world regions, access to food is still a severe problem and food costs are rising. Overall, the aggregate global price of food has doubled in real terms over the past eight years, while in many places the workers with the lowest incomes are seeing wages fall. As if this weren't enough, climate change impacts weather patterns, leading to increased rainfall in some places and decreased rainfall in others. The African continent is especially harmed and, as drought impacts growing regions, farming and grazing for livestock compromises yet more peoples' access to food. More info from Oxfam's Grow campaign
Locally produced food as a solution
The concept of "food miles" and the carbon footprint of food is becoming more widely known. The basic concept is: as we have increasingly globalized our food supply, we use more petroleum flying food all over the world. Locally produced food doesn't bring this problem, and it also provides many additional benefits. More info from Slow Food USA
Factory farms require huge carbon inputs and produce huge carbon outputs in the form of methane. It takes more than a calorie of fuel to produce every calorie we eat and, in industrial meat production, the ratio of calories-in to calories-out can be as high as 58:1. Eating livestock from your local community lessens this problem, but it still has a higher carbon output than a vegetarian diet. More info from Food and Water Watch

It is Friday Night. The shul is due to daven Mincha at 7.30pm, but Plag Hamincha is 7.37pm. The Shul is two short of a minyan and the decision is taken to daven Mincha privately. It is now 7.45pm (and so past Plag Hamincha). After which, two more arrive and a minyan is then formed for Mincha. After davenning Mincha, they then decide to daven Maariv even though it is still not sunset let alone nightfall. Were they in error?

This tooth paste has an awesome flavor with no weird after taste like some of the generic brands. Can get a little dry if you brush too long but over all great morning and night product.
This is a fun, good product. One seldom spends that much on toothpaste, but it's worth it.
Great toothpaste, with an incredibly strong and refreshing mint flavor. If you're expecting Crest or Colgate, this isn't the toothpaste for you.
I splurged on this because it has a great after taste and doesn't foam too much. And the packaging is adorable!
I tried out this sample while I was on a business trip. I wasn't blown away. I guess it's hard to get excited about toothpaste. I'm a crest guy. Not sure I'd purchase a full tube.
Maybe one of my favorite products I've ever received from Birchbox. I can only speak for the peppermint flavor, but what a great flavor. The first time I used it the only thing I could think is: "I'M NEVER USING ANY OTHER TOOTHPASTE EVER AGAIN." Call it a life changer, call it what you will. Either way, you'll enjoy this toothpaste.
I received a sample in a birch box and ended up ordering a full size. The flavor was really nice, my only complaint is it doesn't last long enough. I probably won't ever order this again.
I like the toothpaste, but your teeth don't feel as clean after use and compared to other products out there, it is pretty expensive. Don't waste your money.
This was only so-so. It didn't bubble much and I have this mental block that it needs to bubble and foam. The mint was very subtle and didn't leave me as fresh as I would like. I'd try it again but I think I will stick with drug store brands.
Awesome taste, cleans well, absolutely loved it! Took it with me to the dominican republic and its great for travel

There is also a summary of ideas for citing electronic texts (e-texts) by Tent (1995), and a short page discussing URLs in biomedical texts by Beckleheimer (1994), available for those who are interested.

The glen stretches south eastwards from the source of the River Devon to Yetts o' Muckhart. The main road through the glen offers breathtaking views north to the famous Gleneagles Hotel and the mountains around Loch Earn, south into the heart of the glen with soft rolling hills rising on either side and the gentle River Devon on the valley floor.
Visitors can choose from a number of straightforward walks on good paths close to the five reservoirs located in the area. The car park and picnic area in Glen Sherup makes a good starting point. At the southern end lies Castlehill Reservoir, this is the water supply for Fife and there is good parking and a pleasant, grassy area, perfect for relaxing on a warm summer's day.
Glenquey Reservoir is close by and the two can be linked by a short walk. Further into the heart of the glen you'll find Glensherup Reservoir and the two manmade lochs known as the Frandy Reservoirs. These were constructed by German prisoners of war in the First World War to supply water to the towns of Dunfermline and Rosyth.

In this post, I'm going to talk about equation numbering, one of our most highly-requested features. Setting up your equation numbering for easy one-click entry takes a few steps, so bear with me. You have to go through this process only once, and after that, you'll be able to insert equation numbers with just one click. Feel free to read the steps below, watch the video demos instead, or do both!
Step 1: Insert a 3x1 table. Your equation numbers can go in the leftmost or rightmost column, and your equation should be placed in the middle column.
Step 2: Next, you'll want to make sure your table is laid out properly, to ensure that your equation is centered horizontally on the page, and your equation numbers are centered vertically with respect to the equation. This step has a few sub-steps:
1. With your IP in the table, click on the Layout contextual tab, and then click on the dialog launcher for Cell Size.
2. On the "Table" tab, set the Preferred Width to 100%. This ensures your table takes up the whole width of the page.
3. On the "Column" tab, set your columns to have the following widths: Column1 = 15% Column2 = 70% Column3 = 15%
4. Determine if you want your equation numbers to the left or right of the equation. For the cell (left or right) you've designated for your equation numbers, on the "Cell" tab, select Center under Vertical Alignment.
5. Don't forget to hide the table borders. If you want to see the table boundaries, choose "Show Gridlines" on the Borders dropdown.
Step 3: Place your IP in the cell where you'd like to type your equation numbers, and start a Multi-level list. You may want to change list level, so that your equations are of the level 1.1. instead of 1. You may also choose to define a new Multi-Level list, so that you can add parentheses and remove punctuation.
Step 4: Adjust the spacing after the table, to match the spacing after setting in the previous paragraph. If the previous paragraph has 10 pts as its "After" setting, you'll want to make sure your new paragraph also has 10 pts after. Otherwise, your equation will not be vertically centered between the preceding and following paragraphs.
Step 5: Insert a Placeholder equation. You can do this by clicking in the middle cell and choosing Insert | Equation, or by using the Alt+= shortcut key.
Step 6: Now you are ready to save your equation for easy reuse! Select the entire table, and on the Equation dropdown menu, choose "Save Selection to Equation Gallery." Give your equation a name, such as Numbered Equation. From this point forward, you will be able to insert numbered equations from the equation gallery.
In this video, I'll demonstrate how to customize equation numbers to match your chapter headings.

Very good!
We share the same point of view on the Equation Editor in Office Word 2007. If you want to have examples in French, please visit : blogs.microsoft.fr/.../50908.aspx
I think this is not good enough. I think that Mathtype works better for equation numbering. In Word 2007, if you insert an equation before the first equation of a second chapter, you have to re-set the number of equation to 1. Will I be able to cross reference to equation numbers? The demo does not say anything about this. Will I be able to open a documents where equation where typed with the equation editor and/or Mathtype's profesional editor. Will the equations be translated to the new format? Will the numbering and cross references be kept? It should be easy to number or unnumber an equation. Is it?
It should be easy to change the numbers format (e.g. (3) to (2.3) where 2 is the chapter for a whole document. Is it? In Mathtype you can do this. If you change the font type (e.g. from Times New Roman to Arial) and size in the whole document or the normal style, does this change alter the type and size of the fonts of equations. If not, can you change the font type and size for all equations in a single step as you can do in Mathtype? Instead of giving a percent to each column wouldn't if be better to give a fixed with to the first and last columns so as to use me minimum space and leave the maximum space to the second column, where a big equation may lie?
Is a dispayed equation a paragraph on it own? Would it help to have a style for equations?
Thinking about the spaces before and after a displayed equation, if I have a style for displayed equations, I can change them all at once. I usually have to do so when I swich from a book-like paragraph format (where a new paragraph is noticed by the firt-line indent) to a the format I use for presentations where paragraphs are separated by a space between paragraphs. (I do not use powerpoint for presentations. I just set up custom-sized pages of small dimensions and, when I have to print to Adobe, I scale to the paper size of my choice from the Print window of Word. This way everything gets bigger.)
Hi Rodolfo,
You can in fact cross-reference equation numbers. You will also be able to open documents whose equations were written with Equation Editor and/or MathType. However, there are currently no tools to convert from one format to the other. You can set the default math font to be used for an entire document, but once you have inserted equations throughout the document, we don't have a UI to change the font for equations only. It can be done through Word's object model. Settings for spacing before, after, and between equations is something we've spent a lot of time researching, and something we might consider for future versions.
Thank you for your response. The efficient use of equations and their numbering is the reason I was planning to upgrade to Office 2007 (and Vista, and computer). If I am better off by using MathType, I will not upgrade. That is why I am very interested in this topic. I guess there should be an easy way to replicate the features of MathType and posting an add-in or add-on (I do not know the difference between both.) in the web to download. The features of Mathtype to replicate would be: 1) There should be an easy way to number an equation you originally created as unnumbered and vice versa. Many times you realize you have to reffer to an equation only after you wrote it. 2)There should be no problems when you increase or decrease margins. I do not know if the tables proposed in this blog will accommodate automatically. In Mathtype, you do not use tables. You use an Equation Style that includes tabs: a Center Tab to center the equation and a Right Tab to align the number of the equation to the end of the line. If you change the margins the solution is the following: You place the pointer in a line with the Equation Style. You open the Equation Style dialogue box. You select the Automatically Update check box. Click OK. After that, modify the placement of the tabs as needed. Then, all other lines including Equation Style will be modified automatically. 3) One should be able to change the numbers format (e.g. (3) to (2.3), where 2 is the chapter, for a whole document. Other questions: a) Are displayed equations a different paragraph in Word 2007 (to which I can apply a Style different from that of the text)? b) You say that one cannot change the font for equations ONLY using the UI but that you can do it through Word's object model.
b1) Can you change the font of the equations with the UI by changing the font of the entire document (text and equations)?
b2) What is Word's object model?
This is a great technique apart from one major flaw... When people want to number equation in this manner they will most likely also want to cross reference them in the form "The Nernst equation (3) can be...". However by following the method described above, cross referencing and auto updating of the cross referencing cannot be accomplished.
If you want to number your equations sequentially and with a professional look as well as have the ability to cross reference them follow the instructions below:
Instead of using a multi level list to number the equation (Step 3), you use:
References > Insert Caption
Click on New label and Type '('
Then >OK.
Copy and paste the caption into the right side of the table and format to your desire.
Continue following steps 5 & 6 from the instructions in the article above.
You can now cross reference the equation by going to the:
Insert Tab>Cross-Reference> Selecting Reference Type '(' >Insert Reference to: Entire Caption>Then select the correct equation number.
To auto update all the captions at once, 'Select All' (Ctrl+A) then press 'F9'
Obviously these are just guidelines and can be played around with to achieve the correct equation numbering format and cross referencing for your purposes.
There is a far better way to do this using the caption tool. Create a custom caption label, '(' for example (or just use the Equation label already included and delete the Equation text after you insert the caption), then you can easily include the Heading 1 number [to have the first eqn of chapter 2 labeled as (2.1)]. Modify the field to suit your needs and drag it into the table created through following the steps in this blog post.
I don't like the method presented here because the numbering is not fully automatic... you have to set the starting number for the first equation of each chapter. Using the caption tool similar to figure and table labeling is far superior in my opinion as it will save the user time and eliminate possibilities for erroneous numbering.
Just realized the post above mentions something similar... go figure!
Another tip I have is to not use a table at all and just use tabs to align the equation. Use a centre aligned table in the middle of the page for your equation and a right aligned tab at the right side of your page for the numbered caption. (or change all rights to lefts if that's your preference)
Just before finding the equation numbering topic in this blog I also found it in word.tips.net/.../T000273_Numbering_Equations.html .
The author suggested the table or tab solution and then, and this was new to me, he pointed me to using the 'Insert Field' and from the top level list, or the 'numbering' category, using the 'SEQ' numbering field . The interesting thing with this solution is that you can book mark the 'SEQ' field and therefore cross reference. You give the 'SEQ' field a name. I haven't implemented it yet but it sounds promising.
Apart from that I am using Mathtype and may well stay with that and a version of Word that will support it.
Hei, I was wondering, I have followed your instructions and things seemed to be going alright but then I noticed that if I start a new set of equations in my next chapter and change the number to say 3, instead of getting 3.1 I get 4 lines containing 1., 2., 3., and then 3.1. Do you have any idea why this is? I can't figure it out and i've tried numerous approaches. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have the same problem as JRMERTES. Plz help!
Maybe,what I use the following steps is a simple way to create math equation, numbering and aligning:
1. Insert one NBSP(non-breaking space) before inserting Word 2010 equation
2. Insert equation, and then press Enter
3. Navigate to Reference, insert caption for equation
4. Press Ctrl+Alt+Enter, equation and number will be at same line
5. Open Paragraph, and then click Tab
6. Set the positions of equation and number
7. Insert Tab behind and before the equation
I have tried many times, it works very well. I have recorded a macro for step 3~ 7.
If you understand Chinese and want to get detail pictures, please visit my Web page,
After so many years of development, MS and Office staff - you have FAILED to provide the scientific community with a simplified method for numbering equations and then referring to these equations throughout the text.
The same goes for references.
Given the price we pay to have Office on our campuses and personal computers, it is not permissible to provide workarounds (as in the above) or refer to expensive add-ons to get the job done.
There is a way to get equations numbering to work perfectly. There is a subtle trick about how you set up the template I did not find anywhere else. See the you tube video under keywords: word equation numbering (guy with English accent). With a little further adjustment you can make it work perfectly including updatable equation number cross references.

China's Politburo Standing Committee member Wang Qishan speaks at the opening ceremony of the 11th National Women's Congress at the Great Hall of the People, in Beijing, in this file picture taken October 28, 2013. Chinese President Xi Jinping has raised expectations he will tackle corruption much more forcefully than his predecessors, but official data on investigations suggests the crackdown so far is little different to previous years. Spearheading his crackdown is Wang Qishan, head of the party's Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI). Wang warned party investigators last month that their jobs were on the line if they failed to root out corruption, telling them to use "shock and awe" on their targets.

More reviews by LazyLittleLady
I generally am a fan of Badger products. They have balms that are natural and organic and skin loving. However, the Cuticle Care balm didn't exactly meet my expectations. It smells very nice (lemongrass and mandarin, not "fake lemon") and there is nothing bad about it per se. It is moisturizing (Shea butter and Olive oil are the first two ingrediants), but I don't think it does anything super special for my cuticles that the regular balm wouldn't do. Basically I think its overpriced per oz. The tin is very tiny (.75 oz) and I find I am going through it very quickly. I will not repurchase.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I prefer this to burts bees lemon cuticle cream (even though it does not smell as nice) it does not burn my cuts like the BB's one does. Putting a thick layer on at night really benefits my cuticles.
I will repurchase.
The only reason I don't own this is because my cuticles don't give me trouble. If you love nail polishes, manicures, or have cuticle/nail problems, this is for you. It really moisturizes your nails and makes them look smooth and healthy.
Pros: natural ingredients, healthy looking nails, moisturizing, little goes a long way, cheap
Cons: hard to find, superfluous for some
I prefer Burt's Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream over this. I have very dry yucky cuticles and this is not nourishing enough for me. I've been using this for a few wks and my cuticles on 3 fingers have gotten into very bad shape, and this is not helping. I also find that the lid does not close very tightly. The one thing I like abt this is the smell is more tolerable than the Burt's lemon smell. I shall try Sally Hansen Cuticle Eraser + Balm next.
Tried this Badger cuticle ointment based on the reviews here and although it is very emollient externally, the strong fake lemon smells puts me off.
It doesn't absorb quick and leaves an oily film. I will go back to my old faithful Neosporin triple antibiotic ointment which is used on minor cuts and abrasions to prevent infection and encourage healing.
Picked this up as I wasn't getting quite enough moisture from Burt's Bees Cuticle Butter, and had read that it was a substitute (and less smelly than) Bag Balm (which it is not). I hated the smell, and it never really did anything for my cuticles despite the quantity applied.
Bought this after reading all the good reviews and for £5 I thought it was worth a shot. It comes in a small metal tin, like a Vaseline tin, and contains 21g of product which is a lot! It is the best cuticle balm I've ever used and it has left me great skin around my fingers. Its greasy but so moisturising, I'm not a massive fan of the fragrance but not really that bothered by it either. I just put a little on after I've washed my hands and it moisturises so well. I can see this lasting me a very long time and I will definitely repurchase.
Although I love Burt's Bees Cuticle Creme, I decided to try this because I like to try out different products and this came in a much bigger tin than the Burt's Bees. I think this creme is decent, at this point I like the Burt's Bees better but this does exactly the same thing. I'm an on/off nail biter, and I've always had a bad habit of picking the skin around my fingers. Because of this anxious habit, let's just say my fingers aren't always nice to look at and it makes me feel embarrassed and self conscious. I find the Badger creme is easier to apply and isn't as thick as the Burt's Bees creme. It visibly lessens redness and makes the skin very soft. Like I said, it comes in quite a large tin so I think this is going to last me a pretty long time.
LOVE IT! I use this periodically, It;s very greasy but It works like it's supposed to.
Very emollient, fragrance is strong but I like the smell and it dissipates fairly quick.
It will leave grease marks on things you touch so this is best right before bed. Little tinFits great in my purse for on the go treatment.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I bought this based on online reviews. The skin around my fingernails has been a bit wrinkly and dry looking for some time. Using this has made a difference to the overall look of my fingers. I was pleasantly surprised that it absorbed so quickly. The tin closes properly but is easy to open, and in colder temperatures swiping your fingers over the product will make it soft enough to use. It has a citrusy smell which does not linger too long. It looks like it will take some time to finish this product, which makes it good value.

Chateau Pichon-Longueville: Over a Century of Illustrious Winemaking
Only fifteen estates are listed among the Deuxiemes Crus of the Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855, and Chateau Pichon-Longueville is one of the lucky few. With a product that has stood the test of time, it's an obvious nominee for a Luxist award in the best international red wine category.
The area now known as the Pichon estate was once the site of an unassuming farm called La Baderne, located between the villages of Saint-Julien and Pauillac. In the 17th Century, Baron Jacques de Pichon, the Baron of Longueville, established the vineyards; in 1851, Raoul de Pichon-Longueville built the chateau that still graces the property.
The improvements came just before Pichon-Longueville earned a spot on what would become one of the world's most prestigious and steadfast wine lists. Despite numerous attempts to invent a new system, the Official Classification of 1855 remains the gold standard for Bordeaux wine, and with it, Pichon-Longueville's place in history.
llustrious winemaking, the estate was purchased by the French insurance company AXA in 1987. Today, Pichon-Longueville remains celebrated for its strong, tannin-packed wines, which are also known for their aging potential. One of the estate's latest vintages is a 2008 blend of 71% cabernet and 29% merlot, muscular and fruity with scents of blackberry. No doubt the estate's original farmers would have enjoyed it.
Vote for the winemaker that you think is the best of breed. The voting period ends on June 30th, with winners announced on July 1, 2010.

Andrew Cuomo during a press conference Monday. "So it complicates the situation."
