A great product for keeping stray brows in place. Quick and easy to use. Love this product. Would highly recommend
I like it a lot. it works well and goes on smooth. it's probably the best highlighter I've had. I plan on buying it again for sure.
I had over plucked and over plucked over the years to the point that my brows where almost nonexistent. This product helps tame brows and guide them in the right direction during the regrowth process. My brows are almost back to normal and I'm pretty excited about that!
I had never tried one of these before but I love it. I'll use it more this weekend for a better feel.
I love this stuff! A professional makeup artist turned me on to it and it has been a must have ever since. It keeps my brows in place and the pencil lasts forever!
you need this. you just do. It may just be a simple wax pencil and you might think, god, I wish I could make this in my garage or something, it must cost like five cents apiece. But guess what? You can't make your own, they did it for you, and you may as well bite the bullet and pay up. It's gonna last you for a super long time anyway. It's worth it. I like this whole line of products, they are working well for me!
I use all of Anastasia products for my brows and love them all including their brushes! I really like to use this product for nights that I'm out with friends vs a regular day out. I don't always need the brow wax but when I do use it, it does the job of keeping every hair in place especially if you've got a few stubborn ones like I do.
this is a great product, i wish i had found it years ago! the flexible hold is better for me than some of the gel like eyebrow products
There is a reason why she's the best. Her products are amazing! This is no exception. Definitely a must buy product!
Like all the other reviewers mentioned, this product holds your brows in place without the hassle that the gels usually bring with them. It even darkens your brows just a bit...so if yours are thick enough...you can forgo a pencil. Nice bonus.

I'm not sure how many of the board members read my column today (and if you haven't I highly recommend you do before continuing) but in the spirit of what I wrote there, I am starting a recommendation topic.
BUT anyone who even mentions one of the gazillion movies that are now well acknowledged by the public will be shot.
To clarify:
THESE ARE THE RULES THAT I AM SETTING. If you don't like them, please just post your recommendation elsewhere. Don't read. Don't bother. This has a specific purpose. And if it sounds a bit choosy and elitist - it is. I am channelling our focus onto one particular place.
1) If it was made in USA and after 2000 - don't bother.
2) If it has over 1000 votes on IMDB, don't bother.
3) If it has won an Oscar, don't bother.
4) If it stars a major, major Hollywood star DURING their glory days, don't bother.
5) If it does not have some amazing, standout quality that you can specifically mention, DON'T BLOODY BOTHER.
1) If it's foreign , espc. from one of the many countries whom we never mention, do bother.
2) If it has cinematic excellence despite budget and resource limitations, do bother.
3) If the acting is uniformly excellent by a cast of unknowns or has-beens, do bother.
4) If it never got a proper release, do bother.
5) If it makes you go giddy with excitement each time you watch it even though you have never found a single person to discuss let alone share the experience with, DO BOTHER TO MENTION THE FILM.
I'll start the ball rolling. 2007. South Korea. Gidam. Here's why: For resurrecting the almost dead anthology format and whilst doing so reminding me and any other viewer that real horror lies not only in ghots and ghouls but in our inability as human beings to cope with very real factors.
As well as showing how beautifully melancholy loneliness can be.
I will post one every day until someone else picks up the mantle and starts posting.
Rise up, people! You have nothing to lose but the shackles of populist cinema!
Sincerely yours

Basically, take anything with a tray, bowl, or concave cavity and fill it with dirt. Then, drop some seeds in (try Garden Cress, like the keyboard above), or re-pot a plant (like the Bonzai in the blender). Tend to your new greenery and enjoy the simple pleasures (and health benefits) of living with plants.
Why not make a planter out of...
• A Keyboard, like in this prank on Reddit.
• A Vintage Refrigerator Drawer, like Apartment Therapy's Amber Byfield.
• A Blender, like Riner Rosing of Core Since Eighty-Four.
• Old Car Parts, like we spotted at Flora Grubb Gardens.

A whole community of itchy dogs!
Hi everyone... So I posted an ad today on a town facebook site asking if anyone had any idea of any holistic vets in the area and told them about my dogs itchiness and what the vet recommend (put her on Science Diet and it will magically cure her itching, and bath her twice a week).
Well I got over 100 responses in under 5 minuets! There were almost 60 people (I live in a small town, roughly 4000 people{that is the amount of people in the 4 "towns/villages combined}) who had commented that their dogs are having the exact same issues as Penny, super itchy all the time all over, no fleas not mites nothing else that would cause it. I cant believe there are so many people here that have dogs (some people were saying their pack of dogs were all having the same issue) are having this problem! Two people had said as soon as they moved here their dogs started having this issue as well! What the heck is going on? Is there something in our environment that is making our dogs be so itchy? Everyone is on different food and supplements all different breed types ect. The only constant is the environment. Could there be a parasite or something that the vets are not catching that these dogs are getting that would cause this? Any input would be great!

Release Details
LABEL Diminished Fifth RecordsRELEASED ON 8/25/2009
GENRES Thrash,Traditional,Melodic
Black Moor
The Conquering
A few months ago, someone in the MetalReview forums started a discussion about a similarly named, similarly very young band apparently "playing traditional metal better than most traditional metal bands." As someone who grew up in the heyday of elder metal, this naturally peaked my interest. I headed over to the band's website to get some samples, and lo-and-behold, yet another flimsy disguise was very quickly annihilated and the true colors of Black TIDE were exposed: candy-coated Nickelodeon-metal meant for bubblegum-brained suburban kids.
Roll forward about six months later and yet another very young, Black [enter word here] band with their sites set on "tradition" slid under the MR door all the way from Nova Scotia. Needless to say, I approached with extreme caution, and my torch gleamed with a condemning fire brighter than a thousand suns. But you've seen the movies, and you've watched the after school specials: what ended up crossing my ears that day was far from anything I'd consider disappointing. Black Moor's interpretation of the style is infinitely more genuine than the aforementioned band, and the boys have obviously been studying the heavyweights of the genre intently. I guess some homework really does pay off.
According to the band's bio, Black Moor's sound is often compared to "a cross between Iron Maiden and Megadeth." The Maiden comparison obviously stems from the heavy use of melodic twin axe attacks -- they're all over this record, and they're polished and definitely give the songs a sweet hook -- but pushing it over the edge is bassist Rob Nickerson's distinct nod to the Steve Harris school of play (check the Seventh Son moment by the 1:00 mark of the closing track as ample evidence). The kid's got chops, and the production on The Conquering rightly gives him the chance to shine throughout each and every tune. The rest of the Black Moor foundation is firmly set in a relatively safe brand of melodic thrash. I say "safe" not necessarily as an insult, but as an important distinction for those whose taste is more closely aligned with the "crueler" end of the thrash spectrum. Think more in terms of a Paradox/Malice/Flotsam & Jetsam approach that favors melody and more of a mid pace as opposed to the more throat-cutting delivery of classic Kreator. Liberal use of bright leads, cleanly sung background chorus', acoustic guitars and even bits of (admittedly sappy) piano all help drive the melodius point home.
Those who live in fear of shrilling falsetto's or corny crooning can breathe easy here as well. While guitarist Eric Hanlen's voice certainly gives away the band's youthfulness, he adds just enough grit to his chords to land him squarely within a camp sharing bunks with an adolescent Hetfield or Mustaine (with less of a nasally delivery). It fits the music well and appropriately lets the musical skills take center stage on the record.
The Conquering is a solid record from a young band that's obviously spending a great deal of time honing their chops. It's not as explosive a debut as, say, The Ultraviolence, nor is it all that concerned with innovation, but it definitely delivers an enjoyable punch and paints a bright future for four up-and-coming metal musicians. I hope these guys stick it out, and I hope they stick it out together, because I'd love to see what they come up with next.
Up with the Moor! And to Hell with the Tide...

"Once Upon A Time In Argentina is a double CD package, the 2 discs presenting 2 distinct projects. Disc One, which is actually called Once Upon A Time In Argentina is by a quartet including 2 percussionists. This unconventional line-up reflects what I think is the importance of rhythm in the music. In fact the whole continuous story comprises various chapters linked by different rhythms, none of which were pre-planned but were created in the studio by the combination of 2 percussionists of very different styles.
- Juan Carlos Martello, drum kit Jorge Savelon, percussion, Ruben Ferrero, piano, pianica, percussion and voice, George Haslam baritone sax, tarogato.
Disc Two is again a studio recording, this time by a saxophone quartet - "The Walter Thiers Memorial Saxophone Quartet". The history of jazz in Argentina and the place it holds to day is deeply indebted to the work of Walter Thiers. Walter was that rare sort of guy you meet here and there, an absolute fanatic who devoted his life to his love of the music and expressed this by helping the musicians and making things happen. All 4 members of the Quartet have reason to remember him with love and gratitude.
The Walter Thiers Memorial Saxophone Quartet. - Pablo Ledesma soprano, Sergio Paolucci alto, Daniel Harari tenor and George Haslam baritone"-Slam

Battle of the Year
Dante Graham (Laz Alonso) is a hip-hop mogul, but he was a breaker; now he wants nothing more than to see an American team win the Battle of the Year, an international b-boy tournament. Dante picks former dancer Jason Blake (Josh Holloway), a boozy, widowed basketball coach, to select, then train a worthy team. With just three months to whip a crew of 13 headstrong guys into a cohesive unit, Blake, his assistant (Josh Peck) and a choreographer (Caity Lotz) have a daunting job ahead of them.

2 stars
Dance battle movies -- "Step Up" and its ilk -- have become the musicals of their generation. They may be formulaic in the extreme, but they're athletic extravaganzas, celebrating great skill and the art of b-boys and b-girls.
They may wear the veneer of "street" and "edgy," but parents appreciate how harmless they are.
"Battle of the Year" touches on how the rest of the world has embraced b-boy culture, but how they're no longer perceived as cutting edge or cool in the United States.
That worries the Sean Combs-like impresario, Dante (Laz Alonso): "How long before hip-hop isn't cool?"
He has to protect his music, dance and fashion empire by putting American b-boys back on top. He hires an old dance buddy, W.B. (for "Wonder Bread"), now a grieving, alcoholic ex-basketball coach (Josh Holloway of "Lost"). W.B. has to get himself up to speed on the current state of dance, then recruit and coach a "dream team" of the best of America's best to take on the rest of the world, which has passed America by and long dominated the annual b-boy Olympics known as "BOTY," the Battle of the Year.
That team consists of assorted arrogant, chip-on-their-shoulder showoffs, because that's what it takes to succeed. Actual star dancers such as Do Knock and Flipz are mixed with others, including singer Chris Brown.
And helping coach is Jewish hip-hop authority "Franklyn with a y," played by Josh Peck.
Benson Lee, director of the definitive documentary on the worldwide phenomenon, "Planet B-Boy," co-wrote and directed this, and immodestly has characters watch that film and sing its praises.
Holloway cannot even hint at a real dance past, so the movie fakes that by having his coach run his guys through drills (in split-screen sequences).
Peck, once of TV's "Drake & Josh," onetime star of "The Wackness," has a small, supporting role but is given top billing. In this case, that means his every scene includes overly made-up and coiffed close-ups. It's laughable.
But tabloid darling Brown more than holds his own with this crew, apparently not even needing a dance double. The dance scenes -- especially those involving teams from Germany, France and Korea -- take the b-boy moves to the next level.
And there are plenty of easy, undemanding laughs, the best lines coming from Peck's assistant coach.
"You look like a gazelle out there," he praises his boss. "A gazelle with arthritis."
Which, while it doesn't describe the movie, does hit this genre right in the bull's eye. But then, the beauty of "Step Up" and all its tired imitators is that the audience they're shooting for has no idea that there have been 20 or 30 movies exactly like this one that came before it.
MPAA rating: PG-13 (for language and some rude behavior).
Running time: 1:41.
Cast: Laz Alonso (Dante Graham); Josh Holloway (Jason Blake); Josh Peck (Franklyn); Chris Brown (Rooster).
Credits: Directed by Benson Lee; written by Lee, Brin Hill and Chris Parker; produced by Amy Lo, Beau Flynn and Tripp Vinson. A Screen Gems release.

How do I introduce a two-month-old male kitten to my five-year-old female cat?
First, make sure that your kitten is healthy prior to introducing him to your older cat. Before bringing him home, take him to your veterinarian for a complete exam, including laboratory testing (your veterinarian may wish to do a leukemia test).
It is best to introduce the kitten to your cat slowly — don't force them to interact. A gradual process of discovery and investigation is best. Bring the kitten into the house in a travel crate and let your older cat approach the crate and sniff, hiss and paw at it. Then reverse the situation by putting the older cat in the crate and let the kitten explore around the crate.
When both cats appear comfortable, allow them to roam freely together under your direct supervision. You should expect some hesitation and hissing from either or both cats during their first encounter. Once they seem relatively calm, feed them together in the same general vicinity, but not right next to each other. Separate them after the feeding. As they become gradually calmer, allow them to spend progressively longer periods together each day until they seem to be completely comfortable. Make sure you have at least two litter boxes — one for each cat.
It may take a week or two for them to become comfortable, but they should gradually adapt to each other. Be patient. Some cats are less sociable toward others and less willing to share their territory. With time, most cats learn to accept others in the household.
Consult your veterinarian for advice if your cats have not become accustomed to one another after a few weeks of interaction.

Looking to start 3-1 in Big East play for the first time ever, Rutgers (11-4, 2-2) got locked down offensively and hammered on the boards by a relentless Cincinnati squad. Here is Keith Sargeant's video of Mike Rice's postgame presser. The thoughts and notable quotes:
The desperate team won. As often is the case in these games, you didn't need to look at the standings to figure out which team came in with two straight losses. No. 21 Cincinnati (14-3, 2-2) played extremely hard, battling for loose balls and rebounds like the season depended on it. The Bearcats were bigger and stronger, especially in the backcourt, and they enforced their will. Telling stat: Their 19-8 edge in second-chance points. Cincinnati has the juice to make some noise in March, and when your point guard is the best player on the floor by a wide margin (Cashmere Wright: 23 points, 0 turnovers) the matchup tilts in your favor.
Eli Carter has to change things up a little, or Mike Rice has to change it for him. The sophomore guard shot 1-for-11, including 0-for-6 from 3-point range, and had just one assist. He logged 36 minutes—too many. Against St. John's he shot 3-for-14 with one assist. Teams have scouted Carter and they've figured out how to back him up and make him settle for low-percentage shots. They're running extra bodies at him and he's getting frustrated. Carter needs to drive and draw contact or find the open man when he's doubled. The best scorers do those things. He's only a sophomore and you figure he will learn eventually, but if Rutgers is going to maximize its season, those things have to start happening now.
The Scarlet Knights also need more from Wally Judge (2-of-7, 6 points, 4 rebounds).
Some silver linings for Rutgers: Limited Cincinnati to just 37 percent shooting and gave up few open looks . . . Only nine turnovers against a team that forces 15.5 per game. . . Kadeem Jack made the most of his 16 minutes (5 points, 7 rebounds, some solid post defense) . . . Down 18, RU showed some fight by cutting it to eight.
Crowd of 5,560 was smaller than expected, but it's still winter break and Rutgers fans seem to know the deal that goes back a couple of decades now: Every time the program appears poised to turn the corner, this game happens.
"We have to learn from this because we're going to be in this spot again, trying to take the next step forward. In the Big East if things aren't going well you can't rely on the jump shot. You're going to have to score in the paint, draw contact, get to the free-throw line."
"We defended as well as we should have. Now you just have to rebound and finish possessions off. You're not going to win when they have 17 offensive rebounds and 19 second-chance points. In a Big East game, you can't give that number up."
On Eli Carter: "I think he just settled. When you're the leading scorer and you are off, you've got to get to the paint and create either contact or opportunities for others and he's not doing that right now. Really Cincinnati, wherever he was going, they had two or three guys on him, and now we have to take advantage of what he can do for us. But he's got to get off the ball and create some opportunities for others. It's hard because he realizes he has to score for us. But right now he's taking low percentage shots and not getting fouled and that's a tough equation."
"There was no fire and brimstone out of me today. My team tried really hard. They just didn't respond the way I would have liked in the first half."
"To be honest I expected it to be sold out. They're really good. Rutgers has a very good basketball team. They have athletes, they have size, they have guard play, they have shot makers. They're extremely well coached. We played really well. We have to play them again, which I'm not excited about."
On what other teams are doing to take him off his game: "They've just been scouting pretty well. They're not letting me get shots off our offense. So I just have to make moves myself."
On whether he needs to re-evaluate or change up his game a little bit: "I just have to make shots when I'm open. Nothing different."
"They killed us on the boards tonight. Obviously I have to play better. It's a huge learning experience. We let this one slip away."
"They definitely made it a real tough, grind-it-out type of game, which can test your spirits. When you feel like you're rolling and they swing the momentum it can be troublesome. We have to focus in on our rebounding, definitely, and being tougher with the loose balls. Really all the little things that make you successful in these types of games."
"I definitely think they hang their hat on physicality. They've always been like that and they showed it today against us. Since we have another opportunity to play against these guys we have to be more cognizant and focus in on the small things — on the rebounding and the loose balls."

Herne Hill Harriers show their "medal" at the South of England road relays championships
1:10pm Monday 23rd September 2013 in Sport
By Jonny Muir
Herne Hill Harriers' U13 girls' team struck gold at the South of England road relay championships at Aldershot at the weekend.
Not to be outdone on the medal front, the M50 quartet brought home the bronze gong.
The U13 girl's team trailed City of Portsmouth AC going into the final leg of three, but a sensational run by Alex Brown - the joint third fastest individual - propelled Harriers into an unassailable lead with an ultimate winning margin of 41 seconds.
While Brown may have had the glory leg, the finest individual performance came from Eloise O'Shaunessy who - after taking the baton from Lily Newton - ran the second fastest time of the day, just four seconds slower than Portsmouth's Josie Czura.
Remarkably, the U13 girls' B team of Kayah Wilks, Lucy Olsen and Eimear Griffin were a whisker away from also medalling, finishing nine seconds behind the third place team.
At the opposite end of the age spectrum, Tony Harran led the M50 team off, completing his leg in 11th.
Gary Ironmonger elevated Harriers to sixth, before Vic Maughn gained a further two positions. A superb last leg by Mike Boyle - the fourth fastest M50 individual runner - saw Harriers overtake Harrow AC to win bronze medals.
Harriers' senior man finished 19th out of 80 teams, with just 84 seconds separating the club's fastest and slowest runner in a well-balanced team.
Mike Cummings ran the quickest leg of the Harriers' six, with the club rising as high as 18th before Jonny Henderson brought the team home in 19th.
Other results at the relay championships were:
U15 girls (sixth)
U15 boys (seventh)
U13 boys (19th)
U17 boys (20th)
Senior women (42nd).
Within those results were several outstanding individual performances, notably Saskia Millard (third overall in U15 girl's), Oscar Millard (fourth in the U13 boys), Paul Burgess (sixth in the U15 boys) and Ed Olsen (12th in the U17 boys).

A 15-year-old Jenks student, missing since last Tuesday, contacted his family Monday night from over 1,000 miles away.
A family friend told News On 6 that Eli Carr called his mother Monday night from a 7-Eleven store in Salt Lake City, Utah.
He left his father's house early last Tuesday morning and hadn't been heard from since. He had left a note saying he needed to get away to clear his head for a few days.
He ran away a week after three Jenks students died, one in a shooting at a south Tulsa Quik Trip, one from a heart condition, and one - a friend of Eli's - took his own life. His family said they worried about his state of mind, following those tragedies.
Monday night, Carr told his mother he was safe, but out of money and he wanted to come home. A family friend said he told his mother he was going to sleep in his car in a Wal-Mart parking lot and wait for her to come get him.
The family contacted Salt Lake City authorities. His mother and father are both on their way to pick him up.

by MMAjunkie.com Staff on Sep 05, 2013 at 3:30 pm ET
A light-heavyweight bout between Rafael Cavalcante (11-4 MMA, 0-1 UFC) and Igor Pokrajac (25-10 MMA, 4-5 UFC) is the latest addition to November's recently announced UFC Fight Night 32 event.
UFC officials today announced the bout.
UFC Fight Night 32 takes place Nov. 9 at Goiania Arena in Goiania, Goias, Brazil. The bulk of the card airs on FOX Sports 1 following prelims on Facebook.
It's not clear where "Feijao" vs. Pokrajac will be placed on the lineup.
Cavalcante, who fights in his home country, looks for his first UFC win following a promotional-debut knockout loss to Thiago Silva in June. However, the action-packed one-rounder earned both competitors a "Fight of the Night" bonus.
Regardless, Cavalcante has just one win (with two losses and a no-contest due to a failed drug test) in his past four fights, and the former Strikeforce champion likely finds himself in a must-win situation.
Pokrajac, meanwhile, looks for his first win in four fights following a decision loss to Ryan Jimmo in June. Were it not for Joey Beltran's failed drug test and a subsequent no-contest, Pokrajac would be stuck in a three-fight losing streak. Instead the Croatian fighter is 0-2 (with one no-contest) since a 4-1 run that had him moving up the UFC's 205-pound ranks.

GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) _ The parents of two Texas boys killed when a pickup truck ran over their tent in a North Dakota campground last July have returned to North Dakota to lobby for tougher drunken driving laws.
Authorities say 5-year-old Alaries Ruiz and 9-year-old Cyris Ruiz were sleeping in their tent at the Lake Metigoshe campground when a pickup with a drunken driver at the wheel went out of control, ran over their tent and crashed into a tree.
Thirty-one-year-old Juan Acosta, of Newburg, awaits an April trial on felony charges of manslaughter and reckless endangerment. His attorney declined comment.
The boys' parents, Juan Ruiz and Sandy Hernandez, say they plan to share their story with lawmakers at the Capitol. They want stiffer penalties for drunken drivers.

Event History A dark water event, or "black water" as the media called it, occurred off the coast of southwest Florida early in 2002. The phenomenon was first observed in January 2002. On March 1, 2002, the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) reported the dark water event to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission's (FWC) Florida Marine Research Institute (FMRI). Close observers characterized the water as dark brown-black-green. FMRI, Mote Marine Laboratory, and University of South Florida personnel analyzed a variety of samples, and the institute continued monitoring the event until its conclusion. The chronology of the Event Status was published on this Web site as information became available.
Findings Microscopic algae (phytoplankton) identification and cell counts indicate large, centric diatoms (Fam. Rhizosoleniaceae) dominated the dark water. The Florida red tide organism, Karenia brevis, and its toxin was either absent or found in low-to-moderate amounts. Within the same region, a moderate red tide occurred before and during the winter dark water event. Brevetoxin, the toxin associated with Florida's red tide, can linger in the environment for a period of time after Karenia brevis cells return to background concentrations. This prolongs the risk to marine animals.
Throughout 2001, southwest Florida faced climatic extremes. In the winter and spring of 2002, severe drought conditions preceded fewer and less severe weather fronts. While currents usually move water in this region southward through the Lower Keys at this time of year, the water was not undergoing a usual pattern of movement. Oceanographic drifters indicate the water between Naples and the Marquesas circulated in a gyre (spiral form) during the dark water event.
Researchers propose that, under these weather and water conditions, the normal winter diatom bloom from western Florida Bay shifted, becoming superimposed over a waning red tide from the West Florida Shelf. Both blooms co-occurred with water that appeared dark because of colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) that was primarily from rivers.
Investigators at one discolored water location found high numbers of "comb jellies." Comb jellies are nonstinging, gelatinous organisms that feed on small crustaceans-or microzooplankton-in the water column. By eating the microzooplankton that help keep the phytoplankton population in check, the comb jellies may have contributed to the continuation of the phytoplankton bloom. Comb jellies could affect the color of the water "seen" by satellites and may also explain reports of jelly-like blobs in the water.
In summary, there were several oceanographically unique features of this event:
Thus, the early 2002 dark water event was a combination of a large diatom bloom and a red tide, depending on the location. Therefore, the timing of sampling could have influenced interpretation of the results.
Stony coral cover decline and boring sponge loss reported at two sites in Florida Bay have been associated with the March 2002 dark water. Two important points must be considered for the proper interpretation of this information:
A second event, also dubbed "black water" by the media, was reported in August 2002 near Sanibel Island, Florida. No marine organism mortalities were reported for this event. Data collected during this smaller event indicated two separate algal blooms were occurring: a cyanobacteria bloom at the mouth of the Caloosahatchee River and a diatom-dominated bloom in the Ten Thousand Islands area. All analyses performed to date identify river water as the source of nutrients for these blooms. Nutrient input from rivers is seasonally associated with diatom blooms and can contribute to cyanobacterial blooms seen in estuaries.
Reports of discolored water near the Dry Tortugas in October and November 2003 are also due to CDOM associated with riverine inputs. Nutrient concentrations were low in the samples, similar to what is typically found in this region. In contrast to earlier events, the water contained little phytoplankton; although, diatom blooms were coincident in Florida Bay and at the mouths of the Caloosahatchee and Shark Rivers. There have been no reports of marine organism mortalities associated with this event. Prior to July 1, 2004, the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) was known as the Florida Marine Research Institute.

Summary: In this article, the authors demonstrate a broad spectrum of common and uncommon central nervous system disorders associated with calcifications. In order to provide a systematic review and an approach to a more accurate diagnosis, they present the intracranial calcifications according to the underlying etiology, and the neoplastic processes are subdivided according to location.
Dr. Makariou is an Associate Professor of Radiology, Department of Radiology, Georgetown University Hospital, Washington, DC. and Dr. Patsalides is an Assistant Professor of Radiology in Neurological Surgery, Weill Cornell Medical College, New York, NY.
Intracranial calcifications seen on computed tomography (CT) are the most common finding in the everyday practice of neuroradiology, because noncontrast-enhanced CT of the head is the preferred imaging modality worldwide for the initial evaluation of patients with acute or chronic neurological problems. The intracranial calcifications may have no clinical importance or they may be critical findings in diagnosing the underlying pathology.
In this article, we illustrate a broad spectrum of common and uncommon central nervous system (CNS) disorders associated with calcifications. In order to provide a systematic review and an approach to a more accurate diagnosis, we present the intracranial calcifications according to the underlying etiology. The neoplastic processes are subdivided according to location (Table 1).
Physiologic calcifications
The physiologic calcifications are very common and have been well-described in the past decades. They are associated with aging and can be seen in the basal ganglia, pineal gland, falx, tentorium, arachnoid granulations, choroid plexus and the cerebellum. Physiologic calcifications are almost never clinically significant. The calcifications in the basal ganglia are usually punctate and are located within the globus pallidus, the head of the caudate nucleus, and the putamen and are very common in middle-aged individuals and the elderly (Figure 1). However, basal-ganglia calcifications in persons <30 years of age can be associated with underlying metabolic disorders, such as hyper- or hypoparathyroidism, congenital disorders such as Fahr disease, and infections. The presence of basal-ganglia calcifications in patients <30 years of age should prompt careful clinical evaluation to rule out another etiology (Table 2). Physiologic calcifications of the pineal gland (Figure 2) are seen in approximately 40% of normal people by the age of 20 years1 and appear compact,measuring <1 cm in diameter. Larger calcifications should raise concerns for underlying tumor, as discussed later in this article.
The habenular commisure, anterior to the pineal gland, is another location for physiologic calcifications. Physiologic calcifications of thedura (Figure 3) are also very common in older age groups and are usually located in the falx or the tentorium. Presence of dural calcifications in children should raise the suspicion of underlying pathology, mainly basal-cell nevus syndrome.
Arachnoid granulations, especially large ones within the transverse and sigmoid sinuses, are also calcified in middle-aged and older people with characteristic appearances.2 The physiologic calcifications of the choroid plexus (Figure 2) are very common after the age of 40 years. On the other hand, only 2% of children between 0 to 8 years of age and 9.5% of children from 9 to 15 years of age have calcifications of the choroids plexus.3
Finally, physiologic calcifications can be seen in the cerebellum, with the dentate nucleus (Figure 4) being the most common site.4
Dystrophic calcifications
The dystrophic calcifications are chronic sequelae of trauma, surgery, ischemia and radiation therapy. Parenchymal dystrophic calcifications are often associated with encephalomalacia and reactive gliosis.
Posttraumatic calcifications have been described in the capsule surrounding both chronic subdural (Figure 5)5 and epidural hematomas.6 This finding is more common in chronic subdural hematomas, seen in 1% to 2% of patients. Isolated case reports have presented rapidlycalcified epidural hema- tomas.7 Radiation therapy and, to a lesser extent, chemotherapy have been implicated in the appearance of significant detrimental effects on the CNS. Because of the slow replication rate of most constituents of the CNS, these effects tend to be delayed. Radiation–therapy- and chemotherapy-related calcifications are much more common in young children.8 Three main types of calcificationshave been observed:
Although radiation therapy and chemotherapy probably have a synergistic role in the pathogenesis, radiation is the dominant factor in mineralizing microangiopathy. Finally, ischemic and hemorrhagic infarcts, parenchymal hem-orrhage from trauma, and prior surgery are alsoassociated with dystrophic calcifications.
Congenital disorders/phakomatoses
The phakomatoses are a group of hereditary disorders that affect structures of ectodermal origin. Classically, calcifications are described intuberous sclerosis and Sturge-Weber syndrome but can also be seen in neurofibromatosis and basal-cell nevus syndrome.
Calcified subependymal hamartomas are common findings in tuberous sclerosis, usually located along the ventricular surface of thecaudate nucleus (Figure 6), just posterior to the foramen of Monro. The cortical hamartomas seen in tuberous sclerosis are usually supratentorial and can also calcify. Calcifications in the subepen-dymal and cortical hamartomas are rare during the first year of life and the rate increases along with the patient's age.
Subependymal giant-cell astrocytomas are another major manifestation of tuberous sclerosis that can present as a calcified nodule. These lesions are larger than the subependymal nodules, show interval growth, enhance on postcontrast images and are located at ornear the foramen of Monro.9 Gyriform cortical calcifications, with a pattern similar to Sturge-Weber, are sometimes seen as well.10
The most common calcifications seen in patients with neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) are the ones associated with disease-related tumors, such as meningiomas. Nontumoral calcifications have also been described in these patients, with symmetric or asymmetric calcifications of the choroid plexus in the lateral ventricles and nodular calcifications of the cerebellum11 being most commonly observed. Cortical calcifications are less common. Vouge et al.12 described subependymal calcifications in a series of patients with NF2, similar to the calcifications seen in tuberous sclerosis.
Early dural calcifications are a common manifestation of the basal-cell nevus syndrome; they involve the falx (Figure 7), the diaphragma sella and the tentorium. These are also locations of physiologic calcifications, but in patients with basal-cell nevus syndrome, the calcifications appear in younger age groups.13 One of the typical imaging findings in Sturge-Weber syndrome is calcification occurring adjacent to a pial angioma, originating in the subcortical white matter and then extending to the cortex (Figure 8). The parieto-occipital cortex is the most common location for cortical calcifications, but they may occur anywhere in the cerebrum. In 20% ofpatients these calcifications are bilateral.14
Vascular calcifications
Calcifications in the arterial wall of large intracranial vessels are common and should be mentioned in the report because of their association with atherosclerosis. It is also important to be aware of other calcification patterns associated with vascular pathology, suchas vascular malformations and aneurysms.
Atherosclerosis is associated with mural calcifications of the major intra-cranial arteries.15 The carotid siphon (Figure 9) is the most commonly affected vessel, while calcifications in the anterior and middle cerebral arteries and the vertebrobasilar system (Figure 10)are less common.
Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs)are associated with dystrophic intracranial calcifications. These are seen in the watershed or other areas away from the AVM nidus due to ischemic brain tissue as a result of the "vascular steal" from the AVM.16 Calcification cana lso be seen in the AVM nidus.17 AVMs are associated with mural calcifications in the ectatic veins associated with the fistula.18 Patients with cavernous angiomas (Figure 11) often have stippled calcifications19 in the vessel wall or the adjacent brain parenchyma. These are more commonly seen in nonhemorrhagic lesions.20 Calcifications in developmental venous anomalies (venous angioma, Figure 12) and capillary telangiectasias have been occasionally described.21–23 Brain aneurysms (Figure 13) often have mural calcifications, more often seen in fusiform24 compared with saccular aneurysms. Amyloid angiopathy results in gyriform calcification and sclerotic changes in the medullary arteries.25
Congenital infections
Intracranial calcifications are common in patients with congenital infections, but their appearance is not specific because they reflect dystrophic calcifications similar to any chronic brain injury. Basal ganglia and cortical calcifications are common features of all infections that constitute the TORCH syndrome (toxoplasmosis, other, rubella, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus).
Cytomegalovirus and toxoplasmosis (Figure 14) infections result in peri-ventricular and subependymal calcifications.26 Interestingly, calcifications in patients infected with toxoplasmosis may resolve after treatment.27 Congenital HIV infection (Figure 15) is associated with periventricular frontal white-matter and cerebellar calcifications.28 Congenital herpes (HSV-2) infection is associated with thalamic, periventricular, and punctate cortical29 or extensive gyral calcifications.30
Acquired infections
Cysticercosis, tuberculosis, HIV and cryptococcus are the most common acquired intracranial infections typically associated with calcifications. As in the case of congenital infections, the pattern of calcification is not specific but is still useful in making the diagnosis and evaluating disease progression.
In cysticercosis (Figure 16), calcifications are seen in the dead larva (granular-nodular stage) and the typical appearance is that of a small, calcified cyst containing an eccentric calcified nodule that represents the dead scolex. The most common locations for the calcifications are the subaracnhoid spaces in the convexities, ventricles, and basal cisterns and the brain parenchyma, especially the gray-white matter junction.
Tuberculosis results in calcified parenchymal granulomata in 10% to 20% of patients;31 meningeal calcifications are much less common. HIV encephalitis is associated with basal ganglia calcification.32 Cryptococcus affects immunocompromised patients and calcifications can be seen in both the brain parenchyma33 and the leptomeninges.34
Inflammatory lesions
Sarcoidosis involves the leptomeninges, producing granulomas of the pituitary stalk and the optic chiasm. Calcified sarcoid granulomas can also be seen in the pituitary, pons, hypothalamus and the periventricular white matter. Systemic lupus erythematosus (Figure17) has been associated with cerebral calcifications in the basal ganglia, thalamus, cerebellum and centrum semiovale.35
Commonly calcified intracranial tumors include the oligodendrogliomas, low-grade astrocytomas, craniopharyngiomas, meningiomas, pineal gland tumors and the ependymomas. Since many tumors have overlapping imaging findings, knowing which tumors calcify is useful in limiting the differential diagnosis. In some instances, the presence and pattern of calcification can be essentially pathognomonic as in the case of oligodendrogliomas and craniopharyngiomas.
We present the intracranial tumors that calcify divided into intra- and extra-axial and intraventricular, in order to make the differential diagnosis more meaningful. The presence or absence of calcifications is not related to the benign or malignant nature of the tumor.
Intra-axial tumors
The diffuse low-grade astrocytomas (Figure 18) are the most common glial neoplasms demonstrating calcifications; however, only the minority of these tumors calcify.36 The calcification can be linear, diffuse, punctate or multifocal and may follow the white-matter tracts, especially with large tumors.37 Calcifications are present in the majority of subependymal giant-cell astrocytomas in the form of calcified chunks or nodules.38,39 Up to 25% of pilocytic astrocytomas have intratumoral calcification. Other astrocytomas such as the pleomorphic xanthostrocytoma, anaplastic astrocytomas and glioblastoma multiforme (Figure 19) only rarely calcify.
The oligodendrogliomas (Figure 20) exhibit the highest frequency of calcification among all brain tumors, since up to 90% of them calcify.40,41 The calcifications in oligodendrogliomas can be central or peripheral, punctate or ribbon like, usually located within walls of intrinsic tumor vessels.42 Calcifications may even extend to the surrounding brain parenchyma. The medulloblastomas show small, clumplike or nodular calcifications in approximately 20% of cases.43 Calcifications are typically seen in the majority of gangliocytomas44 and in approximately 40% of gangliogliomas (Figure 21).45 The calcifications are more commonly seen in cystic rather than solid gangliogliomas.46 Dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumors have a calcification pattern similar to oligodendrogliomas but only a small percentage of these tumors calcify.47 Calcified intracranial metastases (Figure 22) are very rare and have been primarily described in case reports.48 The osteogenic sarcoma, lung and breast carcinomas are the most common primary tumors with brain metastases that calcify.49
Extra-axial tumors
The percentage of meningiomas (Figures 23–25) that calcify ranges from 20% to 69%.36,50 The calcifications can be focal, diffuse, coarse, sand-like or even rim. There is a higher percentage of calcified meningiomas in children, which could be associated with more aggressive subtypes of meningiomas.51 Pineal gland calcifications are very common: seen in approximately 40% of normal people by the age of 20 years.1 Compact pineal calcifications measuring <1 cm in diameter are not associated with underlying pathology. Larger pineal gland calcifications however, are worrisome for pineal gland tumors.
Among the pineal cell parenchymal tumors, the pineocytomas are the ones that calcify more frequently, showing either peripheral or central calcifications. Peripheral calcifications are thought to be native pineal body calcifications displaced by the tumor, whereas the central calcifications are produced by the tumor itself.52 Among the pineal tumors arising from germ cells, teratomas commonly have dense calcifications. The germinomas very rarely calcify but may displace or engulf preexisting physiologic pineal gland calcifications.53 Seventy percent to ninety percent of craniopharyngiomas (Figure 26) are seen in children with calcifications, and 30% to 40% of craniopharyngiomas are seen in adults who have calcifications. This is explained by the different histology of the tumor in different age groups; the adamantinous craniopharyngiomas are usually seen in children and almost always (90%) calcify either in the periphery and/or the solid component of the tumor.54 The squamous papillary craniopharyngiomas are more often seen in adults and are less likely to calcify. Dermoid and epidermoid tumors show peripheral stippled calcification in approximately 20% to 25% of cases55 while teratomas typically show internal calcifications.56 Pituitary adenomas do not calcify frequently. They should be suspected however, when calcification is seen within the pituitary gland.57,58
Pericallosal and interhemispheric lipomas may show calcification of the fibrous capsule with rim or eggshell appearance. The calcification can also be located in the center of the lipoma. Lipomas located elsewhere, are much less likely to show calcifications.59,60 Colloid cysts rarely calcify.61
Intraventricular tumors
Intraventricular ependymomas typically calcify, ranging from punctate to mass-like calcifications.62,63 Posterior fossa ependymomas exhibit small, round calcifications up to 50%64 and have the highest frequency of calcification among the posterior fossa tumors. The subependymomas calcify in approximately one third of cases and usually demonstrate small foci of calcification.65,66 The choroid plexus papillomas and carcinomas have punctate calcifications in approximately 25% of cases.38 The central neurocytomas (Figure 27) were thought to characteristically show globular calcifications.68 Other authors, however, reported calcifications in only 50% of these tumors.67 The calcification in these tumors is variable, ranging from punctate to mass like. Intraventricular meningiomas (Figure 28) calcify in approximately 50% of cases,62 with calcification patterns similar to the extra-axial meningiomas.
Metabolic disorders affecting the calcium homeostasis are associated with intracranial calcifications that predominantly involve the basal ganglia. Although the pattern is similar to the physiologic, age-related calcifications, they appear at younger ages and are often progressive. Basal ganglia and subcortical calcifications have been described in patients with chronic renal failure and secondary hyperparathyroidism (Figure 29).69 In patients with hypoparathyroidism (Figure 30), the calcifications typically involve the basal ganglia, thalami, and the cerebellum.70 Intracranial calcifications are more commonly seen in the pseudo rather than idiopathic hypoparathyroidism.71 Hypothyroidism is also associated with basal ganglia and cerebellar calcifications.
Intracranial calcifications can also be seen in rare idiopathic disorders such as Fahr disease (bilateral striopallidodentate calcinosis,Figure 31). This disease shows characteristic calcifications in the basal ganglia, especially in the lateral globus pallidus. Other involved areas are the thalami, the cerebral white matter and the dentate nuclei of the cerebellum.72 Progressive and symmetric basal ganglia calcifications are the commonest radiological finding of MELAS syndrome.73
Knowledge of physiologic calcifications in the brain parenchyma is essential to avoid misinterpretations. However, several pathologic conditions involving the brain are associated with calcifications and the recognition of their appearance and distribution helps narrow the differential diagnosis.

You really doesn't know and the markets today the -- his job numbers the Dow crossing 1410107.
AM today a couple of hours ago.
We'll look what we're heading for a record high a lot can happen in the next four hours of trading joining us now she -- judges from problems securities rob Morgan and let's talk but technicals with -- if we can you consume literally hitting a big level of resistance not just on the -- but on -- -- and -- trying to get their 15100 trying to get to 141000.
It is it is one jobs report enough to keep us at these levels do you think rob well.
Well I think I think -- that from the standpoint of you know we that stocks have doubled over the last four years in the face.
Half a trillion dollars being pulled out of stocks during that period is now on January rent -- people pay for January and people wake up tomorrow morning it's a holy -- -- -- -- -- 141000 I've gotta I gotta get back into the stock market.
And so I think that is even though to psychological barrier -- you pointed out to some resistance levels.
Continue behind the January effect to meat if you look at history it -- you get a positive January 8% of the timing of a positive.
Year but the concern now on the other side of this has got to be history in the last three years -- shown -- Great start of the year here comes you know her comes August her come September and the wind is taking out of the -- Wolf -- and I have but I think a lot of that relates to the European crisis the our own our own debt crisis.
These shipment and Dennis and I were talking during the break he seemed to be somewhat off the table.
-- what it is a -- but that's down.
I asked about half those talk about it -- these record numbers because again we got Canada Exxon earnings -- -- and -- -- looking at those big tax burden -- for that company.
But also you're looking at some other companies that you like a besides ExxonMobil I wanna get results -- -- -- -- -- like Allstate insurance Europe on the bank.
Financials industrials kind of the sectors you've always come up -- Financial's first of the year fine second half of the year about.
You know I think we're gonna start to see.
It play out that these nation and -- like a bank in new York -- don't they don't do a lot of lending and and insurance companies they're -- kept that in the big banks they've they've kind of gotten ahead of themselves I think -- expensive even on like financials I'm not a big fan of right now of the Bank of America's and in the city so.
So that's I think if I.
I think financials are gonna have they did that the sector's going to probably have the best earnings growth of any sector any stocks are cheap -- It advice but a set of financials up because you that we've just gotten all the earnings while the big banks you look at Michael Wells Fargo -- JPMorgan and things are apparently on the what the -- -- situation -- I'm.
But at the same time you get again you mentioned Bank of America the seems to be this crazy split yeah good banks in bad bank debt.
Summer stock perspective and and I think and I think that's one reason that makes a big banks and at risk he's who invest in now with the good because the stock prices -- all run up big.
-- you have inconsistency in the margins and inconsistent and just the voluminous disclosures that are coming out.
I have so so yeah I that's I don't shine away from that.
Read too much -- that -- -- breaks to the 141000 number Robert at the same time and consumer sentiment that dropped.
Contraction which ride shotgun opposed to grow by 1%.
Initial jobless claims yesterday we we we need one million more jobs yes -- -- or five years ago I can't -- -- -- and this is over sorry.
Well keep in mind even with all that Joni kind of pointed this out you know the four month moving average on jobs it has been revised upwards of 200000 -- so so for the last four months even with that the negative that economic news you pointed out.
This job -- stronger than we thought that's gonna feed in the consumer spending and that should help improve some of those other news consumer sentiment some of those other things you pointed out that such.
Companies and another medical device maker coming out yesterday saying we're gonna cut jobs that has been kind of the trend -- were saying.
Do you think that corporations are gonna really truly add to the books this year or have they learned to do.
-- -- -- -- Please I I think she you know at some points at this CEO's they're so lean right now and they have so much cash and they're -- be worried about the competitive position that it is in an expanding economy.
And I and even though Joni Dennis talked about -- temporary help at some point.
They need to really invest in in more in another health care for those employees is gonna be higher sure sure yeah I because I mean even even with that I think there's an advantage to permanent -- -- -- department.
Robert and good cash Bancshares right that is -- bullish.
-- up.

Change of pace. For the 30 Day Challenge this week, I've decided to move from "Inspiration" inspired posts to great "Musical Finds" that have come my way recently. I was not going to post the amazingness that is K Pop…I can't completely abide by that so I'll only subject you to only one K Pop masterpiece this week, lol.
Today's great find is Back Room Deals by a band called East River Pipe. I came across them when trolling the net for new music some months ago and only recently decided to listen to the album I found (We Live In Rented Rooms). It's so amazingly good. This track sounds like it was recorded in the 70s (I get a little bit of Bowie's Ziggy Stardust sound in there) but still sounds completely fresh in today's music arena. I really like them. I did a little research and they've been around since the early 90s. They also have some great lyrics that feel so true:
"Backroom deals.
The whole world is made on back room deals.
You better get used it. You better get used it it.
Backroom deals.
I go to work each day and grease the wheel.
I better get used to it. I better get used to it.
Back room deals."
Have a listen below:

There is a difference between recreational kayaks and touring (sea) kayaks. Your intended use determines which is best for you.
Recreational kayaks are primarily pleasure boats, intended for paddling in calm conditions, close to land. They are short (9 to 12 feet long) and stable (26 to 32 inches wide) and designed to be user friendly. Some are configured as "sit-on-top" kayaks, with no cockpit. Others are "sit-in" kayaks. These have large cockpits that are easy to enter and exit, but which are not designed for or safe in open water. Most recreational kayaks do not have hatches or bulkheads, making them less safe if you capsize because they do not have the buoyancy for a re-entry rescue. They are absolutely wonderful craft if you are out there to just mess around in boats, and not interested in traveling much distance, carrying a load, or going out in rough water. Relax, fish, bird watch, explore the shoreline. These stable, easy to use little craft may fit your needs perfectly.

Touring or sea kayaks are designed to glide readily through the water and allow paddlers to travel long distances quite easily. Touring kayaks will have cockpits that will allow your thighs to contact to allow better control of the boat. Single touring kayaks are usually from 14 to 18 feet long and from 21 and 25 inches wide; the narrow cross section and long water line is what makes them fast. These long, sleek craft have hatches and bulkheads so that if you capsize, the kayak will be buoyant enough to allow a re-entry rescue, and so that you have the space to carry gear. They have deck rigging to secure charts, spare paddles and other important items for distance kayaking. A true modern sea kayak also has some sort of directional device such as a skeg or a rudder. A touring/sea kayak is the type of craft you'll need if you want travel distances, camp out of your kayak or challenge the open water. To travel in most of the ocean waters around Vancouver Island, sea kayaks are ideal.
