Questions and Answers for 2014 Easton L6.0 Slow Pitch Softball Bat: SP14L6
What is the difference between the L6.0 and the L4.0?
The 2014 Easton L6.0 Slow Pitch Softball Bat (SP14L6) and the L4.0 are fairly similar models. The L6.0 is a one-piece fully composite bat made out of IMX Composite. The L4.0 is the Brett Helmer pro model and it has an IMX Composite barrel and a SIC Black Carbon Composite handle. The SIC handle helps improve the feel of the bat and eliminates vibration and sting.
Is this bat similar to the discontinued 2010 Easton CV12?
No. The 2014 Easton L6.0 Slow Pitch Softball Bat (SP14L6) is a single piece composite design whereas the Easton CV12 Slow Pitch Softball Bat (SCG1) had a composite inner core and an alloy outer shell. The L6.0 will also be a bit more end-loaded.
How does this compare to the original Easton Salvo (SRV5) from 2010ish?
The 2014 Easton L6.0 Slow Pitch Softball Bat (SP14L6) is very comparable to the SRV5 Salvo. They are both one-piece bats with IMX composite. The big difference is the end load featured on the two bats. The Easton Salvo has a slight end load, while the L6.0 features an additional 1 ounce of end load for every ounce increase in weight. For example: 26 oz bat has a 1 ounce end load, and at 27 oz bat has a 2 oz end load.
I bought the 2013 L6.0 a year ago, and I'm starting to see a small crack. I play in ASA leagues and use .44 COR balls. I'm just wondering why it's showing signs of that so fast. Would the 2014 model hold up a little bit better?
Both the 2013 and 2014 Easton L6.0 Slow Pitch Softball Bat (SP14L6) feature the new ASA performance certification mark and are designed to hit the lower compression, higher COR softball. You're likely seeing durability issues because you're hitting the .44 COR softball. All ASA leagues should have switched over to the .52 COR, 300 Compression balls these bats are made for. If your league is still using the higher compression softballs, there really isn't a bat that was produced past 2012 that I would say could stand up better, unfortunately.
Is this bat ASA approved?
Yes, the 2014 Easton L6.0 Slow Pitch Softball Bat (SP14L6) is approved for ASA and ISF play.
Which Easton slow pitch bat is better LX.0 or L6.0? I mainly play ASA, would it be a advantage swinging a dual stamp? We're currently using the .52 COR 300 ball.
The 2014 Easton L6.0 Slow Pitch Softball Bat (SP14L6) and the 2014 Easton LX.0 Slow Pitch Softball Bat (SP14LX) are very similar to each other since they feature a one-piece end loaded design. There will be little to no advantage to swinging a dual stamped bat in your ASA league. ASA and USSSA bats have different standards to meet for their certifications. A bat that is dual stamped has to meet both those certifications, so there is a chance that there may be a drop off in performance because it has to meet the requirements of both leagues. A bat that has only the ASA stamp, only has to meet the requirements set by ASA and vice versa for USSSA stamped bats. Since both the L6.0 and the LX.0 feature the new ASA stamp, using the .52 COR 300 balls will be ok for use.
I just bought this bat from you guys. Is it safe to take it to the batting cages?
We do not recommend taking the 2014 Easton L6.0 (SP14L6 Slow Pitch) in batting cages with the yellow dimpled balls. We have found that those balls are not good for baseball and softball bats and does increase the chance of the bat to break if hit with in the batting cages.
What is the difference between the SP14L6 L6.0 and the SP14LX LX.0?
The difference between the 2014 Easton L6.0 (SP14L6) and the 2014 Easton LX.0 (SP14LX) would be the material they are made out of. Both feature the IMX composite but the L6.0 has a different composite in the handle that allows for better feel.
Is this a single wall bat?
The 2014 Easton L6.0 (SP14L6) is a composite bat. Therefore, it will have layers of composite but it is not a single or double wall technically.
I play mostly .52 core 12" ball but also on a fun league that uses a 14" ball. Would this bat be safe to use for that as well?
The 2014 Easton L6.0: SP14L6 Slow Pitch can be used with the .52 core or the 14" balls.
I have the 2013 model and it seems to be good with the .44 core ball that my league uses. Do you not recommend buying this new model?
Both the 2014 Easton L6.0 (SP14L6) and the 2013 Easton L6.0 (SP13L6) are intended to hit the new .52 core balls that are used for most sanctioned ASA play. The fact that your 2013 hasn't seen durability issues yet does not necessarily mean that you will not have issues later. The harder .44 core balls react with the bat differently and can cause internal damage at first that can lead to visible damage later. .44 core balls are best with older stamped ASA bats.
How will this bat hold up to .44 COR balls?
The 2014 Easton L6.0 (SP14L6) Slow Pitch is designed to hit the .52 COR balls and will not hold up very well with the .44 COR balls. The L6.0 is very susceptible to cracking when used with the .44 COR balls.

In news that was shocking only with regards to its timing, five-star quarterback Gunner Kiel has decommitted from Indiana and reopened his recruitment.
"I'm just reevaluating my decision and plan on taking some future visits to other colleges," Kiel told 247Sports on Friday morning.
Ranked as the top quarterback in the class of 2012 and number two overall by Maxpreps, Kiel committed to the Hoosiers in late July over national powers such as Alabama, Oklahoma, Michigan and USC. The 6-foot-4, 215-pounder told new Indiana head coach Kevin Wilson Thursday night according to the report, two days after he was officially selected for the U.S. Army All-American Bowl.
Kiel's brother, Dusty, is a sophomore at Indiana and his uncle, Blair, played at Notre Dame. In addition to taking several official visits, the aptly-named Gunner will take an unofficial visit to see the Irish play USC on Saturday.
After selecting Indiana, both of Kiel's other finalists, Oklahoma and Alabama, added commitments from quarterbacks. His Columbus East team will play Shelbyville in the opening round of the Indiana state playoffs on Friday night.

The Virgin and Child are represented in a grand arched porch flanked by columns with ornate Italianate capitals. To the accompaniment of harp and lute music played by two angels, Mary is crowned as Queen of Heaven by another two angels above. The Christ Child holds rosary beads in his left hand, recalling the prayer recited to the Virgin, the Ave Maria. Although the theme is an age-old and popular one, David has modernized it by placing the figures before a view of contemporary Bruges. The churches of Sint-Jacobs (Saint James) and Onze-Lieve-Vrouw (Our Lady, with its tower in the pre-1519 construction state) appear to the left and right of the Virgin's head in the background. A Carthusian monk may be seen strolling and reading in the background in the enclosed garden. This suggests the site of the former Carthusian monastery at Genadedael, just outside the city walls of Bruges, and the painting may have been commissioned for the monastery by a wealthy patron. Two other paintings in New York, the Virgin and Child with Saints Barbara and Elizabeth and Jan Vos by Jan van Eyck with workshop assistance (Frick Collection), and the Portrait of a Carthusian by Petrus Christus (MMA 49.7.19) are also linked with the same monastery.Additional elements in the painting express a principal doctrine of the Carthusian Order, namely the Virgin's participatory role as the co-Redemptrix with Christ in the salvation of humankind. On the lower border of the cloth around the Christ Child are the words "IHESVS [RE]DEMPT[OR]." This, as well as the crosses on the fillets worn by the angels, and the Virgin's red cloak (the color of Christ's Passion), signifies Christ's suffering on the cross for the salvation of all. In the garden behind the Virgin are flowers and plants symbolic of the Seven Sorrows of the Virgin, representing Mary's compassion with the suffering Christ: columbine for sorrow, the iris or sword lily recalling the prophesy of Simeon in the Gospel of Saint Luke about the rejection of Christ that emotionally pierced the heart of the Virgin, and the strawberry denoting righteousness.David's Virgin and Child is among several Bruges School paintings that copy the exact same motif of the Virgin and Child, with the awkward pose of the Child's left arm twisted backwards over the Virgin's shoulder and the other arm embracing her neck. The origins of this curious pose can be found in Byzantine icons originating in the late eleventh and twelfth centuries, and modified versions made in the fifteenth century in Crete could well have reached Flanders through trade relations that existed at the time (Ainsworth 2004). It is possible that an icon of this type, believed to have miraculous powers, was housed at the Carthusian monastery at Genadedael and fostered the copies made of it.The direct model for the pose of David's Virgin and Child was the figures in Jan van Eyck's Virgin and Child at the Fountain (Koninklijk Museum voor Schone Kunsten, Antwerp; see Ainsworth 1998). In a drawing of the same size and scale (Kupferstichkabinett, Berlin), David copied this motif from Van Eyck's painting for use as the focal point of his own work. Technical examination of the painting with infrared reflectography and x-radiography (Ainsworth 1998) shows that David initially planned to follow the model exactly, including the profile view of Christ's head and the Virgin's hair pulled in close to the nape of the neck (see Additional Images). However, in the upper painted layers, he conformed to his own style, employing his typical Virgin type with loose-flowing hair and turning the Child's face to gaze directly at the viewer. David's meticulous execution of details, and, in particular, his sophisticated handling of light effects to convincingly model three-dimensional figures are indicative of his mature work around 1510–15. At this time he also began to introduce the striking couleur changeant effects seen in the draperies of the lute-playing angel and to employ Italian sfumato for the modeling of the Virgin's face, seen here and in the Virgin's head in David's similarly dated Rest on the Flight into Egypt (MMA 49.7.21). David practiced the new sfumato effects in his drawings, in particular in the Head of a Girl (about 1505–10, Hamburger Kunsthalle; see Ainsworth 1998). This provides evidence of David's encounter with Italian painting gained while he was working on a major altarpiece for the church at the Benedictine abbey of San Gerolamo della Cervara, near Genoa, commissioned by Vincenzo Sauli in 1506 (the Museum's Annunciation panels were part of this Italian-style polyptych; 50.145.9ab).

Castagnola-Ticino, 1969, pp. 206–7, ascribes both this painting and the Thyssen-Bornemisza variant to the master of the André Madonna, observing, however, that this painting is "nearer in style to Gerard David". Colin Eisler. Letter to Everett Fahy.

"A Madonna by Gerard David." Apollo 90 (September 1969), pp. 190–95, ill. (color), attributes this picture to Gerard David, noting that Panofsky endorsed this attribution in correspondence with the Wrightsmans while Sterling, Held, and R. Heinemann questioned it; dates it about 1500–1505, traces motifs in it to the work of earlier painters and argues that the variant in the Thyssen-Bornemisza collection is by a different artist; reasons that the presence of a Carthusian monk in the courtyard makes it seem probable that the picture was commissioned by a Charthusian and that its small size indicates that it was probably designed as a private devotional picture. Rudolf J. Heinemann. Letter to Everett Fahy. March 24, 1969, endorses Ebbinge-Wübben's attribution of this picture to the Master of the André Madonna. Julius S. Held. Letter to Everett Fahy.

Jaarboek van het Koninklijk Museum voor schone Kunsten, Antwerpen (1995), pp. 33, 35, 37, 39–41, 45–46, 55, fig. 1, sees a source for the suspended angels in our panel in a "Virgin and Child" in the collection of the Comte de Bergeyck, Antwerp, which he dates about 1480–90; rejects the identification of the church in the left background in our panel and in the Thyssen picture as Saint Donatien, identifying it instead as the church of Saint-Jacques seen from the North; finds accurate details in the Thyssen "portrait" of the church that do not appear in our panel and concludes that the Thyssen picture cannot depend on ours; believes that both pictures depend on the same earlier model, and that neither the Master of the André Madonna nor the author of the Wrightsman panel lived close to the church of Saint-Jacques; if they did, they obstinately presented the church at an earlier point in the history of its construction. Maryan W. Ainsworth. "A Meeting of Sacred and Secular Worlds." From Van Eyck to Bruegel: Early Netherlandish Painting in The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Exh. cat., The Metropolitan Museum of Art. New York, 1998, pp. 28–29, 74, 222, 280, 306–08, 324, no. 81, ill. (color), dates it about 1510–15, discusses the iconography, and, due to the ubiquity of the type of the Virgin and Child in the art of Bruges, suggests that the model was a venerated icon, probably located in Bruges, perhaps with indulgences associated with it.

(overall and detail in color, infrared reflectogram details, and x-radiographs), agrees with Martens (see Ref. 1995) that our panel and the related André Madonna in the Thyssen Collection may both derive from a model available in Bruges, perhaps in David's workshop itself; suggests that the pictures may have been produced side by side from a common model for the setting, in order to accommodate two clients who wanted different Madonna icons represented in the same locally recognizable site.

National Gallery Catalogues: The Fifteenth Century Netherlandish Schools. London, 1998, p. 120, ill., notes that the view of the church of Our Lady in the National Gallery's "An Augustinian Friar(?) Praying" by Gerard David is so close to that in the present work that both must be based on the same drawing. Larry Silver. "Old-Time Religion: Bernart van Orley and the Devotional Tradition."

Turnhout, Belgium, 2001, pp. 178–81 n. 10, fig. 72, attributes the Berlin drawing after Jan van Eyck's "Virgin at the Fountain" (Koninklijk Museum, Antwerp) to Gerard David or to a member of his circle, and assumes that in the latter case David would have had access to the drawing as a compositional model; finds the parallel shading on the left side of the Virgin's face more summary than that in David's other drawings, and the modelling less sensitive.

Corpus of Illuminated Manuscripts 11–12 (2002), pp. 13, 15, ill. (detail), notes that the facial types of Virgin and Child paintings in the Prado and the MMA (32.100.53), which she illustrates as "Attributed to Simon Bening," are modeled after David's late works, in particular this Virgin and Child with Four Angels and his Virgin and Child in a Landscape in the Museum Boijmans-Van Beuningen, Rotterdam. Colin Eisler in Gerard David y el paisaje flamenco. Exh. cat., Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza. Madrid, 2003, pp. 15, 17, fig. 5, notes that David has combined here the architectural setting of Campin's Madonna and Child in a Niche, known through numerous copies, and the figures of Jan van Eyck's Madonna and Child at the Fountain (Koninklijk Museum voor Schone Kunsten, Antwerp).

New York, 2005, pp. 2–5, no. 1, ill. (color), accepts the attribution to David [see Ref. Ainsworth 1983] of a drawing in the Berlin Kupferstichkabinett and sees it as as a work made in preparation for this panel. Maryan W. Ainsworth. "Gerard David. Vita e opere." Il Polittico della Cervara di Gerard David. Exh. cat., Musei di Strada Nuova — Palazzo Bianco, Genoa. Milan, 2005, pp. 21–22, fig. 10 (color). Maryan W. Ainsworth in Man, Myth, and Sensual Pleasures: Jan Gossart's Renaissance. Exh. cat., The Metropolitan Museum of Art. New York, 2010, pp. 124, 144, fig. 145 (color).
A variant of this painting in the collection of Baron H. H. Thyssen-Bornemisza, Lugano, was published as the work of the Master of the André Madonna by M. J. Friedländer (Die Altniederländische Malerei . . . , vol. 9, 1931, pp. 95–96). The variant is also on panel, 62 x 32 cm, and there are numerous differences between the two paintings, notably the radically dissimilar physical types and the different pose of the Christ Child (Ebbinge-Wübben 1971 and Fahy 1973). A somewhat larger copy of this picture was sold at Sotheby Park Bernet, New York, on December 14, 1977, no. 155A, ill. The central motif of the Virgin and Child derives from Jan van Eyck's "Virgin and Child by the Fountain" in the Koninklijk Museum voor Schone Kunsten, Antwerp (pl. 27 in M. J. Friedländer, Early Netherlandish Painting, vol. 1, 1967). According to Abelardo Linares, Madrid, verbally, 1981, he bought this painting in about 1940 from a private collector in Madrid. The picture had been in this family "for centuries."

I'm in Shadow cave in room with four stones, four buttons and a spot on the floor. But i can't open the door! I can't find walkthrough for psp. Please help!
top left. bottom right
step on spot for 30 seconds
Thank you!
Heh no problem
So, what exactly do I need to get that spirit ? I understand there's a red lantern in Moria's treasury, but someone talked about a blue candle in another (archived) topic... Where do I get that, is it in the Moria too ? And will I need other stuff ? (besides the contract ring of course, which I have)
You need the Blue Candle from the Graham's Treasure Hunt sidequest, as well as the Red Lantern/Pact Ring from the Moria Mine. The faq by MGregerson/ALazara has the locations of the treasures in the sidequest.

Then comes the fun part of GOING BACK into Moria for Pluto T_T
actually i find moria mine quite cool in the PS version, since most enemies are easy to beat and give good experience.
I can't really agree on the "easy" part... I admit some of them aren't that hard as long as you don't mess up (like the beast masters if you can prevent them from casting nasty stuff, or banshees/mantas if you keep them grounded), but the yeti things are getting on my nerve (when they surround themselves with spikes you can only hurt them with spells... waste of tp IMO), and the worst of all... those damn phoenix. Most of the time they fly too high for Cless to catch them, and Chester can't fire directly upwards so he can't hit them either.
Other than that, the exp is really great, especially the black dragons.
The only enemy that really scares me is the Lobo. I mean everything else is just Time Stop/party sodomizes enemy but if the Lobo gets off that snow attack...thank goodness there's a save point on that floor.

70-year-olds smarter than they used to beOctober 25, 2010
The H70 study provides data on cognitive symptoms that researchers have used to predict the development of dementia, and also to investigate whether the symptoms have changed in recent generations. The study involves a large proportion of 70-year-olds from Gothenburg, Sweden, who have been extensively examined over the years, including tests that measure memory, speed, language, logic and spatial awareness. New results from the study were published earlier this year in the reputable American journal Neurology.
"Using the test results, we've tried to identify people who are at risk of developing dementia," says Simona Sacuiu, resident in psychiatry at Sahlgrenska University Hospital and medical researcher at the Sahlgrenska Academy's Unit of Neuropsychiatric Epidemiology. "While this worked well for the group of 70-year-olds born in 1901-02, the same tests didn't offer any clues about who will develop dementia in the later generation of 70-year-olds born in 1930."
The 70-year-olds born in 1930 and examined in 2000 performed better in the intelligence tests than their predecessors born in 1901-02 and examined in 1971. There were no differences in test results between 70-year-olds who developed dementia and those who did not over the next five years in the group born in 1930 and examined in 2000, while many of the tests identified early signs of dementia in the group born in 1901-02.
"The improvement can partly be explained by better pre- and neonatal care, better nutrition, higher quality of education, better treatment of high blood pressure and other vascular diseases, and not least the higher intellectual requirements of today's society, where access to advanced technology, television and the Internet has become part of everyday life," says Dr. Sacuiu.
The study showed that memory problems were the only predictor of which 70-year-olds were at risk of developing dementia. However, far from all of the 70-year-olds with a poor memory went on to develop the illness.
"That's why it's important for people with memory problems to receive a thorough examination," explains Dr. Sacuiu. "If we are to identify dementia effectively at an early stage, we need good tools that include psychometric tests. However, these must constantly be adapted to new generations, as older people are performing better and better in standardised psychometric tests."
At the same time, the incidence of dementia remained unchanged - it is just as common between the age of 70 and 75 today as it was 30 years ago. The study included over 800 dementia-free 70-year-olds, 5% of whom went on to develop the illness over the subsequent five years.
"Learning more about the early signs of dementia means that patients may get help and support more quickly," says Dr. Sacuiu.
The study started in 1971 with an examination of 70-year-olds who were then regularly followed over a period of 30 years. A new H70 study started in the year 2000, and is still ongoing. Data from a total of more than 2,000 senior Gothenburg residents are included in these studies. The participants have been examined both physically and psychiatrically and have enabled several research groups to describe different trends in physical and mental health in the aging population.

Cloud computing is an approach to computing that enables organizations to leverage scalable, elastic and secure computing resources as services with the expected results of simplified operations, significant savings in cost and resources and an increase in operational flexibility.
With its deep experience and rich technological innovation and capabilities in the enterprise server marketplace, as well as its involvement in transaction-intensive, mission-critical environments, Unisys is in a unique position to provide cloud computing that is secure enough and scalable enough for enterprise-class computing.
As a pioneer in large-scale computing, Unisys has tackled some of the toughest security challenges in the world for both public and private sector clients. The company brings a holistic approach to security that spans digital and physical environments, securing a client's people, places, assets and data.
SYS-CON Events is accordingly delighted to announce that the Opening Keynote at its 4th International Cloud Computing Conference & Expo is to be given by Richard Marcello, President of Systems & Technology at Unisys.
Unisys unveiled this week an innovative cloud computing strategy and solutions portfolio for organizations to move enterprise application workloads securely to tailored cloud environments with greater confidence in maintaining the integrity of critical information.
"I believe that cloud computing will revolutionize the way enterprises obtain business and IT services and change the kind of payback they get from their IT investments," says Marcello, adding:
"Our clients tell us that they see great value in moving enterprise applications and data to the cloud. However, they have lacked the comprehensive security to make them confident in doing so."
In his keynote, Marcello will outline how Unisys intends to customize and manage the cloud experience, from consulting to determine what can be moved and how, all the way through ensuring peak performance and delivery against SLAs with a fully managed cloud service.
"I believe that cloud computing will revolutionize the way enterprises obtain business and IT services and change the kind of payback they get from their IT investments," says Marcello. His keynote will be given at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, CA, on November 2, 2009.
"Bringing the Economics of the Web to Enterprise IT Through Cloud Computing" is the conference theme and our organizing principle is that through our intensive three-day schedule of keynotes, and general and breakout sessions, attending delegates will be assured of leaving the Conference with abundant resources, ideas and examples they can apply immediately to leveraging the Cloud, helping them to maximize performance, minimize cost and improve the scale of their endeavors.
Marcello's keynote will set the tone for the Enterprise IT focus of the entire conference.
Topics to be discussed November 2-4 in Santa Clara include all aspects of providing or using massively scalable IT-related capabilities as a service using Internet technologies.
The 3rd International Internet of @ThingsExpo, co-located with the 16th International Cloud Expo - to be held June 9-11, 2015, at the Javits Center in New York City, NY - announces that its Call for Papers is now open. The Internet of Things (IoT) is the biggest idea since the creation of the Worldwide Web more than 20 years ago.

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. When working with time series data there are a few core principles that everyone should consider, especially across datasets where time is the common boundary. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Scott, Director of Enterprise Strategy & Architecture at MapR Technologies, discussed single-value, geo-spatial, and log time series data.

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...

Fresh Face Lavender & Aloe Lotion
- Difficulty:Intermediate
- Time:30 minutes
- Yields:Three 8 oz bottles
Light-weight and moisturizing, this Lavender and Aloe Lotion is great for dry facial skin. Made with skin loving ingredients such as DL-Panthenol and Sweet Almond Oil, this lotion helps skin feel soft and hydrated. It can also be used on the rest of the body to give additional moisture and smooth rough skin. If your skin is more on the oily side, you may prefer the Oil-Free Lavender Lotion Tutorial.
What You'll Need:
16.5 oz. Distilled Water
2.7 oz. Sweet Almond Oil
1.35 oz. Rice Bran Oil
1.2 oz. BTMS-50
.2 oz. Sodium Lactate
.3 oz. Aloe Extract
.9 oz. Glycerin
.4 oz. DL Panthenol
.2 oz Otiphen
3 mL Lavender 40/42 Essential Oil
Three 8 oz. Bottles (White Disk Cap)
ONE: Combine the distilled water, Sodium Lactate and Glycerin in a microwave-safe bowl. Stir to combine and then set aside.
TWO: Add DL Panthenol, and whisk until fully dissolved.
THREE: In a second container, combine the Sweet Almond Oil and Rice Bran Oil with the BTMS-50. Don't worry about melting the BTMS-50 beforehand. Stir to combine and then set aside.
FOUR: Heat the containers with the oils and the distilled water in the microwave on 1 minute bursts until both reach between 150 – 160°F.
FIVE: When the oil and distilled water containers have reached the correct temperature and the BTMS-50 is dissolved, add the oils to the water and stir continually. Blend the mixture for 60 – 90 seconds, making sure the oil and water phases are fully emulsified. Be careful to "burp" your stick blender by tamping it on the bottom of the container to release bubbles — you don't want bubbles trapped in your lotion! Continue to mix until the lotion drops below 120°F.
SIX: Once the lotion is below 120°F, add the Lavender Essential Oil, Aloe Extract and Optiphen. Using the stick blender, mix for an additional 60 seconds until the mixture is fully incorporated.
SEVEN: Because this is not a very thick lotion, it is easy to pour. When the lotion drops below 110°F, pour it into bottles. Let the bottles sit overnight without a cap (otherwise condensation can form inside the bottle).

Is it possible to sterilize with 90% rubbing alcohol instead of a bleach solution?
This recipe looks so good I'm going to try it soon. I was wondering how can it be modified for oily/ combination skin? Or will there be another tutorial for oily skin lotion?
@Megan, I only use rubbing alcohol to sanitize my containers, equipment and counters. Always the 90% or even 99% if you can find it! The less water you introduce into your containers the better, even if it has bleach in it. I've found it's really hard to get all of the bleach water back out, and the bottle still smells of bleach even when dry. Plus, you don't have to worry about getting bleach on your clothes! I hope that helps!
Do you need to disinfect your lotion bottles and cap also or are the fin to use as is?
What if I choose not to use the BTMS-50
.2 oz. Sodium Lactate and the DL Panthenol? Will the lotion come out to the same consistency? Thanks so much for your help!
I forgot to order aloe extract when I ordered my ingredients. Can it be omitted or is there a substitute and still have great results? thank you!
I made this lotion but modified it for mature skin by substituting Carrot Extract for the Aloe Extract and Carrot Seed EO (i love the earthy scent) for the Lavender EO.
Best.face.lotion.ever. My skin hasn't been this smooth and soft in a long time.
Thanks for the great recipe!!
Could you substitute emulsifying wax for the BTMS-50?

WASHINGTON, June 5 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- As Congress returned to Washington this week following its Memorial Day district work period, the Maine Health Care Association (MHCA) released a new analysis finding the Bush Administration's proposed $770 million Medicare Part A national nursing home funding cuts will not only cost Maine seniors $3.9 million in essential health benefits, but cause the state to lose $8.5 million in total economic activity and $4.1 million in lost wages. MHCA officials are in Washington this week lobbying the Maine congressional delegation on long term care financing and other related issues.
According to the new study, prepared by the American Health Care

Highly immersive 'Barco Virtual World' opens its doors at AED Studios
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
Kortrijk, 27 February 2014 – Tonight, visualization expert Barco and AED Studios, part of audiovisual specialist AED group, officially inaugurated 'Barco Virtual World', a virtual experience events hall at the site of AED Studios in Lint, Belgium. The 1.000m2 hall is equipped with ten of Barco's high-brightness HDX-W20 projectors and a 90-meter long screen – the largest in the Benelux – to provide an immersive virtual experience in full HD. As a technical partner of Barco Virtual World, Barco is happy to help AED Studios to push the limits of projection and corporate event infrastructure to create a unique experience for AED's customers.
A longstanding customer of Barco, the AED group purchased the renowned Eurocam Mediacenter in 2013, renaming it AED Studios. The 55,000m2 site is home to an extensive range of film studios (45m² < 3000m²), each offering an enormous array of multifunctional possibilities. "The studios perfectly complement our rental, sales, repair, logistics and leasing businesses," says Glen Roggeman, CEO of AED Studios. "When buying the studios, we immediately dreamt of converting one of the halls into a unique 'Virtual experience' space, in order to underscore our commitment to state-of-the-art AV technology. It was only logical to team up with Barco, the world leader in projection technology."
Exceptionally bright and large
As a technical partner to the project, Barco will provide AED Studios with visualization equipment, including HDX-W20 projectors, LCD displays and digital signage media servers. The projectors, which each offer 20,000 lumens of light output, project images onto a 90-meter-long screen with a total of 17,000 pixels. Thierry Heldenbergh, Managing Director of AED Display: "The set-up allows us to offer highly immersive projection at the highest possible resolution. Consequently, Barco Virtual World is the ideal location for organizers of corporate events, congresses, meetings, live television programs, etc. who are looking for ways to provide an out-of-the-ordinary experience. They can use either our standard HD content or shoot their own images and display these - either way, they're sure to leave the audience in awe."
Great exposure
The AED group has been a trusted Barco partner for many years. "AED's impressive product offering includes our high-brightness projectors and top-range image processing capability as well as LED displays and our corporate AV product range," says Wim Buyens, Sr. Vice-President Entertainment and Corporate at Barco, "and we are constantly strengthening our ties to bring more compelling value to our mutual customers. We are proud to have a Barco hall in this exceptional setting that the AED Studios are. This 'Virtual World' project is a fantastic way to highlight Barco's expertise in projection and showcase its endless possibilities to the event market."
