Hong Kong, Jan 11, 2013 - (ACN Newswire) - The four Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) fairs held this week registered a total buyer attendance of more than 100,000. That's up seven per cent over last year, with both buyers and exhibitors believing that exports could be up by about five per cent in value this year.
Over 2,700 exhibitors, a record high, took in this week's Hong Kong Toys & Games Fair, Asia's largest, the Hong Kong Baby Products Fair, the Hong Kong International Stationery Fair and the Hong Kong International Licensing Show, at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. The two-day Licensing Conference alone attracted more than 1,000 participants.
Trend to Smaller Orders Continues
"The fairs welcomed buyers from more than 120 countries and regions. Most of them came from the Chinese mainland, Korea, Taiwan, the United States and Japan," said HKTDC Deputy Executive Director Benjamin Chau. "For the Toys & Games Fair, participation from the mainland, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, Thailand and Cambodia in the Asia-Pacific region, along with Columbia and the Czech Republic, registered the most significant increases," he said.
"The newly established Small-Order Zone was very popular with buyers. Over the four-day exhibition period, it drew more than 6,000 buyer visits, with buyers coming from Europe, the US, Japan and a number of emerging markets, generating over 6,000 business enquiries," Mr Chau added.
Make it Fun
HKTDC Toys Advisory Committee Chairman Yeung Chi Kong said that, judging from the products exhibited at this year's Toys & Games Fair, manufacturers realise how important it is to have new concepts and quality products to retain customers and attract new orders. "The age-old adage of 'product is king' remains unchanged. For toys, it has got to be fun. Manufacturers followed the latest trends; some integrated Gangnam-style elements into their products, some included smartphone applications. While the i-products attracted attention, educational toys were also popular."
Playing with Smartphones
E-Supply International Administration Manager Korie Au said that smartphone-controlled toys are a new trend. Her company is spotlighting a smartphone-controlled, bubble-blowing helicopter. Ms Au noted that, among emerging markets, Russia commands the strongest purchasing power. Because finding local distributors is not easy, Russian buyers prefer coming to Hong Kong to source new products. "They like mid-priced products, and they source widely and are not very price-sensitive," she added.
Exhibitor Toyeast Ltd set up a battlefield at the fair to showcase its smartphone-controlled tanks. Orders were received from department stores and model shops, according to Marketing Manager Mariko Ko. She added that most of the buyers were Europeans, showing recovering European market sentiment. The US market has stabilised as well, she said, with orders similar to last year's levels.
Wai-Lun Leung, Director of 4D Cityscape Asia Ltd, a cityscape model manufacturer, noted that Thai buyers showed great enthusiasm at the fair, with Russian buyers demonstrating strong purchasing power. "Africa is also an area of interest," he added. "As travel opportunities for Africans remain limited, they are interested in cityscape models of other countries. Our New York cityscape model was the most popular, followed by London. Hong Kong also attracted many European buyers."
Diverse Buying from Emerging Markets
Vladimir Samarov, Head of Commercial/Import/Export projects for Russian online shopping website Ozon.ru, said the company expected it would spend some US$10 million on product purchases at the toy fair.
Ayman El Shawy, Manager of Egypt's Educational Supplies, said his company has 12 toy stores in the United Arab Emirates, where education budgets are going up. "Such policies benefit educational toy retailers like us. I will be buying about US$100,000 in electronic games, touch-screen educational toys and handicrafts at the fair."
Robert Palmowski, owner of Polish company Enjo, said that as families become smaller, they have more resources to spend on high-quality toys. "Remote control, educational and dinosaur toys are my targets. The toy fair attracts many international exhibitors with highly competitive products, and that gives me plenty of choices for selection."
The Hong Kong Toys & Games Fair, Hong Kong Baby Products Fair and the Hong Kong International Licensing Show are organised by the HKTDC; the Hong Kong International Stationery Fair is organised by the HKTDC and Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd.

Cultural, regulatory, environmental, political and economic (CREPE) conditions over the past decade are creating cross-industry solution spaces that require processes and technologies from both the Internet of Things (IoT), and Data Management and Analytics (DMA). These solution spaces are evolving into Sensor Analytics Ecosystems (SAE) that represent significant new opportunities for organizations of all types. Public Utilities throughout the world, providing electricity, natural gas and water, are pursuing SmartGrid initiatives that represent one of the more mature examples of SAE. We have s...

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

The Internet of Things is tied together with a thin strand that is known as time. Coincidentally, at the core of nearly all data analytics is a timestamp.

Enthusiasm for the Internet of Things has reached an all-time high. In 2013 alone, venture capitalists spent more than $1 billion dollars investing in the IoT space. With "smart" appliances and devices, IoT covers wearable smart devices, cloud services to hardware companies.

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

Player X: Tiger shoulda known
Here's my holiday gift to Mr. Woods: some free advice
Player X is a concept running throughout the fall of 2009 in ESPN The Magazine; essentially, it's an NFL star contributing his thoughts on the world of sports anonymously. This specific column appears in the December 28 issue of ESPN The Magazine. For a more detailed archive of these entries, please click here.
Football is a brutal game, but NFL players have a sensitive side. And with the holidays approaching, we're in a giving mood. It's the time of year when guys with big contract extensions go shopping for their position groups or bodyguards. Franchise D-tackles buy hi-def TVs for their ends, QBs reward their O-linemen. NFL owners aren't the only ones who practice revenue sharing, though I'm thinking Tom Brady won't be springing for new Audis this year.
Speaking of generosity, maybe it's the holiday spirit that made me and my teammates reserve initial judgment on the Tiger Woods fiasco. (Yes, we talk about this stuff like everybody else.) When the story broke, most guys gave him the benefit of the doubt. We've all had teammates who got in trouble, or we've had trouble ourselves. And we've known guys who've been falsely accused or had incidents blown out of proportion. Trust me, Tiger isn't the first athlete to bang up an Escalade. Anyway, when you play a team sport, your first instinct is to rally around a guy. And I always try to avoid making snap judgments, because you never know.

Pieter answered:Fishbones is kind of touristy. Nancy's, right near the OB dock also, is better. The best is if you take a bus Up Island to Menemsha and order food at this little shack called "The Bite." You can also get seafood (cooked or not) right off the boats there (Larson's seafood runs a shop) and watch a sunset over water. Bring beach chairs. And wine.

Hi Rex...Thank you for your Brunton/Howell Inquiry.
I am not a Brunton descendant, but throughout my childhood, I used to stay with Elizabeth Brunton NEE Wright
1896-1969. She was the 2nd wife of Robert Langey Brunton 1868-1940. He was a lot older than her and died before I met him.
Elizabeth had 3 sons, Harry, Jack, and Alan and a daughter Hazel (Meryl). They had a farm just out of Wellsford.
Meryl stayed with us (north of Sydney) 2 years ago, and I decided to put her family together from information I could get online. (That is when I left you a message !)
Considering it was just online info, I did quite well, and if you give me your email address, I can scan it to you.
But I dont have any Howell info other than your William Howell, and 9 children . Harold Wilfred, Frances Ida Allingham ,George William, Rita Frances, Violet Elsie, Harriet Mary Evelyn, Robert Charles Allison, Gladys Elva ,
James Gordon Keith.
If you have any Brunton info yourself, I would be keen to have it please.
And I would LOVE any photos you have.

When it comes to size, the blue whale trumps anything that has ever walked, swam, or flown across planet Earth. Stretching roughly 80 feet long, these titanic creatures swim deep below the Pacific Ocean, feeding on thousands of tiny krill at a time?but like all aquatic mammals, they eventually have to come up for air. That's when they meet Blue Ocean Whale Watch.
Aboard a 60-foot sightseeing vessel, naturalist Kate Cummings spouts the aforementioned whale facts and much more. However, it's not until whales breach the surface or jump into the air that passengers truly comprehend their massive size. Even the naturalist herself?who has been on countless voyages?can't help but take a picture each and every trip. Ms. Cummings works alongside Captain Jim Davis, who's navigated the ocean currents and Poseidon's construction zones for more than 30 years.
The two head out in search of blue whales, humpback whales, and other marine life, including dolphins and sea turtles. The stars of the tours change throughout year (during the spring, summer, and fall, humpback whales make their way to Monterey Bay to feed on krill and anchovies), but passengers can always catch views and photos from the upper deck.

AeroDynamic Aviation co-owner and chief pilot Zdravko took his first flight at the ripe old age of 2 weeks. As his baby eyes looked out the window of the DC-3 airliner, watching the houses grow smaller and smaller and the clouds become his companions, the idea of flight bored itself into his mind. Zdravko has now racked up more than 7,000 flight hours?most of them as a flight instructor?and completed taildragger and acrobatics training with Amelia Reid, a pioneer of female flying and the 1960 founder of the location's original flight school.
Together with his fellow FAA-certified instructors, Zdravko shares his passion for flight via sport, private, commercial, and aerobatics training. The staff is dedicated to educating pilots on tailwheel aircraft and teaching true stick-and-rudder flying, which is much more reliable than using leather reins attached to each wing.
Inaugurated in 1991 as a 350-athlete competitive summit, the Sea Otter Classic has blossomed into a sprawling event with more than 50,000 spectators, 10,000 cyclists, and 300 vendors peddling bikes and gear with demos and samples of new products. Situated within Laguna Seca, the festival draws amateur and professional athletes into competitive mountain- and road-bike races, and recreational cyclists behold Monterey County's striking vistas in three Gran Fondo routes. Children's bike events plant the seeds for the next generation of cyclists with a skill-developing play zone and friendly races.
Though still the same game at heart, the bowling competitions at Valley Center Bowl take on a sci-fi spin. The center's 30 lanes use flat-screen televisions to report bowlers' scores, play 3-D graphics, and display a digital clock counting down to the robot uprising. During events such as the Rock-N-Bowl, black and colorful lights dance along the walls and floors while videos pour from six 42-inch screens. Electronic entertainment coaxes visitors away from the lanes an into a newly remodeled, 3,200-square-foot redemption arcade that sits beside the Lazer Frenzy laser maze. Recently renovated with comfortable seating and flat-panel screens, Monterey Lanes entices bowlers of all ages to strive for a perfect 300 score while enjoying good company and crisp refreshments from the cocktail lounge. Weekend glow bowling and an onsite arcade keep gamers amused, and the pro shop caters to more serious bowlers. Monterey Lanes routinely lends its slick surfaces to charity events, such as Bowl Over Breast Cancer.

Cintas Corp. has entered into a partnership with Portugal-based Calvelex Group to expand Cintas' uniform design, production and support services in Europe, the company announced this week.
The deal enables Cintas to accommodate increasing demand for corporate apparel in Europe and better serve its existing clients in the UK, including Marriott, Hilton and Four Seasons, it said in a press release.
Cintas' European uniform business specializes in custom-designed uniform programs for hotel chains.
Calvelex Group is based in the country's textile-manufacturing region in northern Portugal. It's production facilities can make a million garments a year and specialize in women's apparel, according to its website.
Mason-based Cintas (NASDAQ: CTAS) is the largest North American supplier of rental uniforms, entrance mats, corporate apparel and other facilities services. Its uniform direct sales business segment accounts for about 10 percent of its overall revenue.
Newberry covers commercial real estate, courts and legal industry, manufacturing and GE Aviation

Oct 28, 2010Multiplayer Review - So far so good. If you like tearing zombies down with your friends and waves with increasing difficulty, you should get his DLC, im just talking about the multiplayer part since I have not played the single player campaing. I bought this game 3 weeks ago and this DLC came in the nick of time. Didn't hesitate to get the undead pack wich includes all the dlc.
I got to wave 26 with 3 other online players, the dificulty till wave 15 was ok, after that I could sense how hard it was to kill even the normal zombies (there are 4 types of zombies) at wave 26 I found myselft throwing dinamite like crazy to get them off me and running and yelling at my room like a 13 year old little girl (which I'm not lol).
I am only reviewing the multiplayer and will surely update this review when I play the single player experience.
its fun to free roam as a zombie grunting at people...… Expand
Oct 28, 2010Undead Nightmare picks up where Red Dead Redemption ended (sans the last few missions obviously). Awesome story, music and theme. Even though it can be cheesy and insane at times, this is how DLC should be made, 800 MS points for a full-length, action-packed gaming experience.
Oct 28, 2010This is one of the best DLC ever ! It has everything; from a story mode wide and long; to an addictive multiplayer mode so far so good, Rockstar Games really know what they want their fans.
Oct 28, 2010This expansion came at the best possible time. It adds so much to the game for such a minimal price, standing as the antithesis to Fallout: New Vegas. Where New Vegas charges $60 for a game that is almost identical to Fallout 3 (except with glitches), Rockstar is charging $10 for a new, separate campaign filled with new enemy types, music, atmospheric effects, weapons, modes and more. I know it's kind of crappy to knock one game in favor of another, but Rockstar clearly respects gamers in a way that most others do not: financially.… Expand
Nov 14, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Awesome Awesome Awesome Awesome. I've bought a lot of DLC in the past 2 years but this & Bad Company 2:Vietnam have had the most bang for their buck in my opinion. Undead Nightmare is a whole new game. I was a little put off by how easy some of the bosses were to defeat (Mordecai,Drew McFarlane), but then I was attacked by a horde & 3 zombie Grizzly Bears so I'd say if you're for a challenge the game will definitely serve you up one. Same great game, but with zombies. The horses start possessed, but eventually you notice that the infected horses handle a little bit better sometimes than the ones in the original RDR. For the price I would highly recommend picking this up. If you haven't played the first one don't fret. This whole game is kind of like an alternate universe to the first Red Dead game. You don't have to play the first one to understand this one, but just because you played the first one won't make the story that much better.… Expand
Dec 9, 2010All I can say is great job Rockstar for proving what DLC should be. A meaningful game expansion that doesn't leave you feeling jipped. Compare this to what other developers give you for pitiful hour long expansions and you'll really appreciate whats on offer here.
Nov 30, 2011This is a DLC? Are you sure? Am I sure? Because I don't remember a DLC this awesome. I still can't believe it's only £6.50 on Xbox Live. When I was playing this, I thought it was a full game. This is pretty much the best DLC to be ever released yet. It's so lengthy and so packed with hours and hours of fun that it is completely unbelievable that this amazing game is a DLC. The story, from what I've played was as good and compelling as the original and even though I am not keen on zombie games, I'd never had so much fun shooting zombies. Again, best DLC ever made.… Expand
Nov 23, 2010The Undead Package add another side to the whole Red Dead Redemption theme. The Story alone for Undead is brilliant despite being a bit intense at times. It gives you another chance to play with one of my favourite game characters, John Marston. The Story is around 6 hours long roughly around the same as the main Campaign in Black Ops. So for an Add on it really give you some more time on this great game. The online in my opinon is better than the classic one. Its brilliant fun to take on a horde of zombies with your mates. A definet must have for any kind or Red Dead fan. And at only 800 microsoft points which is about £8 so a fantastic bargin for the Best Add on of the year so far.… Expand
Nov 7, 2010One of the best single player DLC's I've ever played. For 800 MS points (a measly $10), you get a brand new adventure complete with story missions, stranger missions, weapons, challenges, outfits, mounts, multiplayer characters and 2 new online modes (Undead Overrun and Land Grab). The story missions won't take you very long to finish, but gaining 100% completion will take well over 11 hours. The single player adventure makes many witty references to the main game and throws in some truly humorous cut scenes. Undead Overrun is probably the most addicting multiplayer mode in the game and it can become insanely difficult in the later waves. The bang for your buck factor is astronomical. This DLC contains more content than most $60 games do today. Download it...NOW!!
WARNING: I highly recommend finishing the main game before even starting Undead Nightmare..many important plot points are used in the DLC and you WILL be spoiled if you decide to play the add-on first.… Expand
Nov 17, 2010This is one of the best Zombie DLC packs ever made, this is the only DLC pack rockstar have released and they did extremely well for a first time. The DLC pack Undead Nightmare has the sandbox layout like the orgininal, They made the atmosphere perfect along with Wondering zombies and Special infected, undead animals such as bears, cougers, birds, and horses etc, Throughout the game you also have dead towns, burning buildings and people screaming for your help while you pass and splatter the zombies brains all over the muddy ground. The story begins at your home in the Northern part, your wife and son get bitten by a zombie. you tie your family to the bed and set off the see if you can find a cure to this plague. you head straight to blackwater and start to burn coffins to cleanse the earth, after hearing Hennigans Stead is under attack by the undead, after finishing business there, you head to Armadillo and fix things there, and head to Mexico etc. Rockstar have also given people a secret suprise as in The Four Horses Of The Apocalyse.
I can conclude that this DLC pack is well worth the money, it is a little buggy though, but either system will fix this in time.… Expand
Mar 31, 2012This game is insanely fun, and the best DLC I've ever bought in my entire life. You spend a lot of time running around saving towns and doing various missions. Each mission is super fun and always makes the story advance. Saving towns maybe can get a little repetitive, but every now and then you'll hit a pretty hard town that will have you on the edge of your seat and having a lot of fun. Oh, and I forgot to mention, the voice acting and mouth syncing is superb, although some of the sound effects could use some work. My last complaint is the ending seemed a little flat and the last level was extremely easy. There are a lot of hilarious side quests too, that in my opinion are a lot more fun than the side quests in the original game. The flaws of this game are too few and far between to do a lot to hinder this game, it was a fantastic play and I enjoyed it a lot.… Expand
Nov 25, 2010This is a great add-on to a spectacular game that introduces some fun Halloween, zombie-themed humor. It's an interesting twist to the story and it's pretty enjoyable both in the single and multiplayer fronts, though I found the single player to be a touch repetitive. That said, it's an excellent way to spend a few hours. And it's zombies, who can hate on zombies?
Jan 17, 2011This expansion pack is like getting a whole new game. It's completely seperate from the main game. There is also the addition of new weapons, and zombies lot's of zombies. Awesome!!
Mar 24, 2011This is the best dlc I ever purchased. For $10 I have an unlimited time cutting down zombies. Who doesn't enjoy that? It's like a whole new game. The change in the artwork atmosphere and music was spot on to give it that horror feel. Limited ammo while your keeping back the undead really makes it an intensive game experience. I've been burned on dlc before, but this one is definitly worth it and more.… Expand
Mar 3, 2012Undead Nightmare changes what you come to expect from DLC. In changing the entire game world, UN creates a fully-fledged alternate story that makes great use of existing characters by seeing what effect this strange situation would have on their lives. New side missions are also added along with new multiplayer modes. The value on offer here is incredible and well worth it.
Jul 10, 2011I can barely believe that this is just DLC. Undead Nightmare is hilarious, fun and proof that the addition of zombies can make almost anything better.
Mar 28, 2011Rockstar's DLC for one of 2010's top games is one of the best DLC I have ever played on any system. For the $10 I spent on this DLC, I got 12 hours of single player fun and additional multiplayer fun if you choose to go online. The story is cheesy, but in a good way, Rockstar had fun with this title as it manages to include zombies, unicorns, and pokes twisted fun at possible reasons for this zombie apocalypse. The missions are fun and there are plenty of challenges and side quests to keep you entertained. The graphics are just as Red Dead Redemption, just with new enemies, creatures, and the towns are usually in flames now. The music and voice acting are top notch in the DLC, and I only experienced one minor glitch, but it didn't hinder my experience in the slightest. If you so choose, Rockstar has also included a new mode for online that pits you and your friends against oncoming horde waves of zombies, with the difficulty increasing as you go. The multiplayer is just as fun as the campaign, which if you don't do the sidequest or challenges will last probably around 6-7 hours. If you are expecting a serious game about John Marston, you will be disappointed. But if enjoy the cheesiness Rockstar throws at you and can sit back and laugh at the twisted dialogue, then there should be no reason to pass up on this great deal.… Expand
May 12, 201110/10
This is what DLC should be! No one does it better then Rockstar and hey.....zombies! Who can argue with Red Dead with zombies??? No one I tell you!
Nov 4, 2011R* is the DLC king of games.
Every dlc has as much effort and focus put into it as the retail game.
This is no exception.
The game looks gorgeous, and who doesnt like killing zombies?
Aug 25, 2011This is one of the best zombie games i've ever played. 800 Microsoft points get's you a lot with this pack.
Plus everytime you get out of a saved city, the landscape becomes dreary, nightmare-ish, and dark.
Gameplay= Spot on!
Atmosphere= GREAT!
Rockstar made this also seem like a very cheesy horror movie.
Jul 5, 2011Even though the game is very dark and creepy, it is still pretty awesome. I personally like zombie movies and games, but this is different. It is John Marston fighting zombies, which takes some time to get used to if you've played the first game. But if you like creepy and dark video games and like Read Dead Redemption, this is the game for you.
Aug 1, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Wonderful DLC.Killing zombies is what i absolutely love in a video game and RDRUN gave me the opportunity to do that.I bought it for 20 euros only and the wonderful storyline,interesting characters,awesome graphics and landmarks made me wanna play the original RDR which i bought for just 25 euros.That's why i love xbox.… Expand
Jan 27, 2012This add on content is excellent, especially for the low price. A brand new campaign, and new multiplayer modes and characters. With this content, expect the same map, but with zombies. There is also a 4 player co-op, where you fight endless waves of zombies. Although the zombie combat can get a bit repetitive, there is much to do that will satisfy your needs for fun. I recommend this pack to anyone who loves Red Dead Redemption.… Expand
May 23, 2012BEST DLC besides Walking Dead, and it is only 800 MSP. This is just perfect... the perfect DLC for the perfect game! I had really a ot fun with it, singleplayer or multiplayer does not matter - it is just so good and you will be addicted hours to it. ROCKSTAR ROCKS!
Aug 28, 2013I love this pack, it is probably the best zombie "game" I have played, hell I play this more than the main game haha. This pack is defiantly worth buying, even if you don't like the whole zombie apocalypse stories.
Oct 29, 2010You can't go wrong when you place the entertaining undead into the stunning Red Dead Redemption scenery! Can you?
Combining a great and beautiful free roam experience with the horror genre has resulted in something very fine indeed! Plenty of action for both single player and on-line means you are getting your money's worth as this is without question one of, if not the most, the best value DLC expansions this year! With glory though comes some negative points, you can expect some repetitive tasks and a lot of running around slaving for people - Fine, if you are into that sort of thing. However, this is overlooked by the fact that the further the "story" uncovers, less and less makes sense...Perhaps I was expecting too much realism from a game with mythical creatures! In conclusion, Although it doesn't make the best sense at time, its still a great fun and a bargain at that. Definitely a must for the red dead fan-base!!!… Collapse
Feb 19, 2011Those who can't get enough of Red Dead's wild west action or zombies might want to give Undead Nightmare a spin. There's a lot of game here for 800 Microsoft points, and while it's rarely as compelling as the main title, there's still some fun to be had in watching John Marsten shoot zombies in the head.
Jan 14, 2011Red Dead's outstanding DLC in a box. Simple as.
Jan 12, 2011Undead Nightmare may sound gimmicky at first, but it quickly becomes clear that Rockstar spared no expense creating what is arguably one of the best DLCs of all time. It's not just the sheer amount of content that's included, but also the method in which said content drastically renovates the Red Dead experience in an exciting and meaningful way.

Sep 30, 2010Leno is a hack. Unfunny and unoriginal. Great show to watch before bed because he can put you to sleep. Who finds it entertaining to watch a celebrity drive around in a green car?
Aug 5, 2011Jay Leno is a genius. He can tell jokes with zero irony, intelligence or sarcasm. A true American legend. Why would people want to watch an old sarcastic man like Dave (and why would Dave be nominated for about 11 yrs in a row for the Emmys?? We don't care. We don't understand his sarcasm!! he should tell jokes that satisfy everyone or he should quit) or a young Harv grad like conan (i hate it when he does brilliant quirky physical comedy. Its too out of the box) or a Scottish bloke called craig (nope .... too intelligent and self deprecating for me. We want narcissism...... we want Mcdonald's happy meal not great Scottish wine.... we want beef jerky). We don't want cutting edge or irony. We want Michael Jackson jokes, which are stale and putrid. We want OJ Simpson jokes for life.. Jay is the MAAAN.… Expand
Monday's opening monologue, supposedly Leno's strong suit, was tired, lame and unfunny. In other words, typical of the real Leno, rather than the Leno of public-relations imagination.
In the end, Leno is talented in the most mediocre of ways, and this gives viewers great comfort....There was nothing new, but there was a very happy man on stage.
Leno himself? Comfortable and comforting, enthusiastic but not too much so, apparently ready to just get back to the job of making middle-of-the-road laughs.

Farming, Adapting to Climate Change & the Limits of Imagination
A new study from Conservancy scientists says irrigation needs are going to increase significantly under future climate change projections. Can farmers be equally radical in how they respond to these drier conditions?
Quick Study: How Will Climate Change Affect Irrigation of Farm Lands in U.S.?
Quick Study is just what it says — a rapid-fire look at a new conservation science study that might turn some heads.
The Study: McDonald, R. and E. Girvetz. 2013. Two challenges for U.S. irrigation due to climate change: increasing irrigated area in wet states and increasing irrigation rates in dry states. PLoS ONE 8(6): e65589. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0065589.
The Questions: Climate change models forecast higher average temperatures that will cause crop-growing seasons in the United States to become hotter and drier. How will this impact the irrigation needs of agriculture in the United States? And how will farmers respond to drier conditions?

Based on Jacks arguement
Rand Paul is seeking to game the GOP to bring about positive change by playing nice endorsing Rommney, and not coming off as "extremist" as his uncompromising father.
As sharp as Rand is, or think he is, he is naive to think that he can come off winning against the school GOP/DC good 'ol boys playing their game. I don't think Rand fully realizes what a dangerous risk he is taking. He is playing against hard-core pros who have no problem doing whatever it takes to win. The harder Rand fights them using their methods, the more likely he will go down the slippery slope of compromise.
I believe that's why Ron Paul was so uncompromising in his career in DC. He knew figuratively that if he wrestled with pigs trying to get them to behave as good conservatives should, he would only get dirty himself.
Rand thinks he is being clever, and believes he has the moral strength to hold fire to his chest and not be burned. But sad experience will soon disabuse him of his hubris, and he becomes like salt that loses its savor.
Conscience does not exist if not exercised

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"We ordered this card on the pearl shimmer paper and the invites were very beautiful and professionally done. We were able to personalize our card exactly how we wanted and we were able to print on the back of the card as well. Customer service is amazing and they always got back to us very quickly. We are very happy with the card!"
"This invitation came out beautiful. On the sample that we ordered, the font was very small. This made me nervous that I wouldn't be able to increase the font, and fit all of the information that we needed on there. However, it turned out not to be an issue. They are able to do so much to customize your order, and after a few rounds of proofs, the designer had nailed it. And the customer service staff was so helpful throughout the whole process."
"The invitations were beautiful! We selected the purple flowers and the shimmer paper- I was very happy with the selection. If you are interested, make sure to get a sample first to make sure you are happy with the color of the paper- it is cream, not white. Also, we changed the fonts and style in order to make sure the print was easier to read on our invitation than on the sample (it was too small and too light). We were really happy with the final product. In addition, shipping was very fast."
"The designer who worked on my card provided extremely quick service, making my changes in just 2 minutes! I was very impressed by the overall look and quality of the card. It is absolutely stunning and very classy in real life."

I received a perfect salicylic acid sample yesterday and OKed it today. It now enters FDA required stability testing for 3 months after which time I will put it up for sale. So we're looking at late October or early November.
6 Responses to "Sal Acid has been finalized–putting it into stability now"
how much (size and cost) will this new SA product be and when do you suggest to use it? SA in the AM and BP at night? vice versa? both together?
What are the ingredients of the salicylic acid product?
Hey Dan,
When will you come out with your line of moisturizer with UV protection? And will
they be available in travel sizes?

I would like to just add a comment about BHA formulations. (I have been using your regimen products for about 2 weeks now, so far so good–I live in Japan and the humidity and heat are AWFUL on my skin.) What pH is your BHA product formulated at? I suggest going to the cosmeticscop.com site and enjoy the information there. You have much in common with Paula Begoun. The important thing in a BHA or AHA product is that it have a low enough pH so that it will actually exfoliate. Almost ALL products available have a pH that is far too high to exfoliate. It is also useless to add AHAs or BHA to a cleanser, as the product is not in contact with the skin for a long enough time. (Also, it can irritate the eyes.)
Keep up the good work. You might put pH considerations in your reviews/recommendations of these acids used for skin care.
