Wow... this stuff is the bomb. I was looking to maybe get a new foundation, and asked the MA if the foundation had any SPF.. she said no, but, this under base had spf., and I might not need a new foundation. she showed me on her hand how blush showed truer after she applied the under base. Now, I'm fifty years old, with some sun damage on my face. I tried this stuff this morning, and I loved it. Of course, more shot out than I had intended, I wasn't sure how hard to press. but, it blended into my skin, and created a natural looking canvas for the rest of my make up that lasted all day. All I put over it was some powder (Shu ) and my skin looked awesome. My blush looked brighter, but, blended into my skin like a dream. the foam didn't settle into any of my lines, and even made my pores look normal. I freakin love this stuff.

I was recommended to this product by this sales assistant from Origins, she said she had very sensitive skin and this one works for her and din break her out. I bought a small bottle from yahoo auction to try it and I'm in love with it ever since. It's so light weight, has sheer coverage and doesn't breaks me out. It has spf 17 too! It's a bit low but I don't spend my time out in the sun much so it's good enough for me. I use it as a sunscreen on it's own. It can also hold make up very well!

my HG! Makes foundation and powder stay put on my oily face. Doesnt oxidise my foundation and gives a natural, poreless finish that accentuates my makeup under every light--gives an unparalleled glow and softness i can't describe.it's very pricey but def worth it as u virtually don't need to touch up on your powder.love the fact that it doesnt make me break out(i'm very acne-prone).
A word of caution: to minimise wastage, squirt gently on the mousse pump nozzle. Lots will continue "oozing" out.

Personally, I didn't want no heavy foundation, so I brought this as a product to even out my skin tones. Many love this product, and so have i, light and natural. a bit pricy but worth it, with the sunscreen protection i even use it as my sun protection, although during summer i would use it with biotherm's sunscreen. and it still wont feel greasy. its matte! i would take advise from the person below to use it with loose powder.... !

From 2004, I have been through approximately 10 bottles of this stuff. Each bottle lasts about 2-3 mths when used daily. It replaces my tinted moisturiser as I live in a hot humid clime.. it maintains a fresh look and I have used 2 bottles of the new formulation. the new version seems to be thicker in mousse consistency and less suscceptible to spills after the mousse liquifies at the spout. My pet peeve was the amount of wastage in remanant liquid around the spout and on my hands as the old version seems to be thinner in texture.
Usage: Daily, after moisturiser, under Ettusias loose powder (no foundation). I am able to use it alone and under loose powder on most days. I have normal but severly acne prone skin so this is one of the few makeup bases, tinted moisturisers that does not break me out. Though I find the new version thicker so improper cleansing the first few weeks caused a few whiteheads to appear.
Sometimes, I skip other bases I have (Vincent Longo and a Japanese brand) to use this even for evening outs as the base gives unbeatable staying power.
When out in the sun, I use this under another SPF tinted moisturiser for hopefully heavier SPF proetction. ( when mixed; say SPF 20 and SPF 18, you get only SPF20 but I hope heavier coverage)
Effect: Matte, sheer , non oily tint which evens out the skin tone. Also, it is a base that helps any makeup stay on. But my face is still greasy (though less) in late afternoons...
Texture/Feel: Mousse texture so be prepared to have a tissue to wipe off your hands or be at the sink to rinse hands. Light weight and by far the most weightless comapred to tinted moisturisers like LM or Paula's Choice.
Price: $$$$$$$$$$$
I seem to be chalking up the Shu points with purchases on these. With a baby, I have no time to trapise to cosmetic counters to check stock ( always out of stock due to the high demand and the change in versions), I buy up to 3-4 bottles at a go. The girls there love me as I don need attention or service, I jsut walk up and get the bottles and help them achieve their sales targets... even then, some begrrudge me a tiny sample. But well, I am in Singapore so be it.

This primer is the best. The texture is light and easy to spread. The result is flawless skin and my make up stays on all day. I have also noticed that I don't get shiney by the afternoon anymore. Although, I don't know if this is due to the new Shu Ueruma foundation I am using or a combo of both.
Anyway, this is a must have and you will not regret it. Just the fact that you don't have to powder or refresh at all makes it worth the extra step in the morning.

I have extremely oily skin. I tried Laura Merciers Oil free primer and it left my skin even oilier. Plus I was getting whiteheads all over. I finaly tried Shu Uemura's UV under base. It didn't leave an oily covering on my skin and my skin has felt better! Only downside is the SPF is only 10 but my face looks great and it even outs the skin tone.

I am reviewing the new Under Base SPF 10. It is a mousse. It is lightly tinted. To quote:
"A renovation of the original shu uemura award-winning, signature product: A weightless mousse makeup base that helps to even out skin tone and texture, reduce redness and minimize the appearance of pores. Use before makeup application to prepare the face for flawless makeup.
Additional benefits of new formula:
Better Spread Increased mousse texture for even application and coverage
Better Adhesion with Foundation Hamamelis [witch hazel] extract helps to tighten pores and make skin surface smoother
Longer Lasting Contains Flouric Polymer Coated pigments that helps color remain true all day
Increased Protection Increased SPF protection against harmful UV rays"
I love this stuff. I actually like it more then the tinted moisturizers I have tried. It really does even out my skin. It does not dry it out. I can use it alone without foundation. Any help with SPF is a plus.

Holiday Traditions to Start This Year
Traditions reign supreme for creating lasting bonds and memories. So we asked readers to share the ones their families observe during the December holidays, both stateside and around the world.
By Holly St. Lifer
Celebrate Your Culture's Values
Kwanzaa, a holiday introduced 46 years ago by a college professor named Ron Karenga, runs from December 26 to January 1 and is more than a celebration of African American culture. "It's a time for us to come together with our children and grandchildren to remind them of our values like responsibility and accountability, and the importance of contributing to society. We emphasize our children's worth and how they deserve all that life has to offer," says Antoinette Broussard, author of African American Holiday Traditions: Celebrating with Passion, Style and Grace. This is a tradition any family can adopt regardless of your origins.

What would you have done
The Babin deal. The Pburnt deal. Carr. Everyone has gone back years after the fact and picked our worst moves apart. This is your chance to second guess THIS years draft. Lets limit the discussion to this years draft please. No trade talk. Just what we actually had available. Here are our picks for those not paying attention. And I'll start with the different selections I wanted to make. Make your picks here where you can actually come back a year later and say "We should have done this - I said so a year ago"
1 10(10) Amobi Okoye DT LOUISVILLE
3 9(73) Jacoby Jones WR LANE
4 24(123) Fred Bennett CB SOUTH CAROLINA
5 7(144) Brandon Harrison S STANFORD
5 26(163) Brandon Frye OT VIRGINIA TECH
6 9(183) Kasey Studdard OG TEXAS
7 8(218) Zach Diles ILB KANSAS STATE
Overall I like our draft. Not sure about adding an ILB. But it is the 2nd round. I wanted to address WR2 as bad as anybody but I don't think we did. If there is one glaring hole that would be it. I consider rounds 4-7 a crap shoot really. The most notable selection I would have done different is our 3rd round pick. We didn't need another WR3/WR4 on the roster. I would have liked one of three guys.
Michael Bush. I know we had Green by then. But let the two rotate. Bush has shown "IT" at the college level and was a preseason 1st round pick. He broke his leg (not a chronic injury) and missed the entire 2006 season. Green only has a few years left (even with the recent success of Dillon, Martin and Barber 30 year old backs just don't do well). I don't have much faith in Jones. We've already got a fast as lightning kick returner on our team. I see no reason to add another one.
The other guy I would have liked to have seen was Hunt. Speed became a question but he was a first or second round talent going into the combine. He doesn't juke much (sounds perfect for our system) and he may not be a home run threat, his 4.55 40 wasn't great but its more than passable.
Aaron Rouse. He was a disappointment in the 2006 season. But can we please get someone in either safety spot that the other team at least thinks about? I know we needed a WR... but Jones certainly isn't WR2. Aaron Rouse at least would qualify as a guy you could use as a SS2 and there were going to be more WRs in FA than there were safeties. There are questions about his attitude, which worries me... but maybe being picked in the 3rd round (instead of the 1st like many were talking preseason) will humble him a little.
Oh well... anybody else have any picks they would have like to done differently?
I should probably pick one guy... and if I had to it would be tough. I guess since we have Green on the roster it would have to be Rouse... but I'm not as high on him as I am Bush or Hunt. If you tortured me though I would go in this order.
Re: What would you have done
Maybe I would've been wrong, but I would've taken Darryl Revis, CB (I think that was his name) in the first round. I believe Nelson (FS) was gone? There was also that possible trade with Denver that I would've definitely taken, if possible. After that, all I can say is that I would've been leaning heavily toward getting a FS on the first day. I've forgotten most of what I knew (or thought I did) on draft day.
PS-I thought that Revis would be the perfect CB teammate for D-Rob, because Revis is taller and not much less skilled at all. In fact, Revis will probably be better than D-Rob in 3 or four years.
Re: What would you have done
Reggie Nelson was still on the board..
I wouldn't have taken him nor Revis over Okoye at 10 though...
Re: What would you have done
With the Schaub trade, I would have gone Leon Hall in the 1st or Revis, depending on who fits the system better. We need another CB a lot more than we need another expensive D-Lineman.
Without Schaub trade:
1. Quinn
2. Dwayne Jarrett
3. Brandon Mebane/Markus Thomas
Re: What would you have done
Personally, my move would have been to trade back with the Broncos to pick up a second and hopefully one other pick.
Then I would have taken Staley in the first and Kalil in the second.
That might not have been the sexiest thing to do and it wouldn't have set us up to win this season, but if Staley pans out (and he looks like a Kubiak kind of lineman) then this would have set us on the line.
Re: What would you have done
A trade down for a 1. Staley and 2. Jarrett would have been cool.
Re: What would you have done
Other than taking Carr, I really don't have anything to gripe about. I'll chalk up all the other moves to 'things just not working out'...
Re: What would you have done
would have taken josh gattis in the 4th, cb in the 5th. gattis is a damn player. okoye and jacoby im cool with, im actually not gonna throw stones at the rest.
Re: What would you have done
The only thing I would have done differently, is look at CD or Safeties who have had some experience in the return game so Jacoby could concentrate on the wr position and put some heat on Mathis.
Re: What would you have done
The only thing I would have done differently this off-season was the Schaub trade and the signing of Green.
We already had an unproven QB in Rosenfels so giving up two No. 2 picks for another unproven QB (Schaub) and signing him to a huge contract seems a little foolish. I would have preferred Sage get shot at the job and saved the picks. This also leads back to the decision to give "he who shall not be named" the starting job out right at the beginning of last year instead of making it a competition. In a strait up competition last year, I think Rosenfels would have won the job. Truth be told though, this isn't that big of deal though. I think Schaub is going to be a very good QB for us, and if he isn't, we still have Rosenfels as a back up.
As far as Green is concerned, 30-year-old running backs are at the bottom of the hill headed downward. No reason to give him a multi-year contract when Dayne looked pretty darn good last year. This move really doesn't hurt us that much, other then salary cap space.
Re: What would you have done
I would have taken Okoye at 10. Instead of taking Jacoby Jones in the 3rd though I probably would have drafted Jason Hill (I think that's his name), the WR from Washington State. Besides that though I can't really complain about the rest of the draft.
Re: What would you have done
can we revive this thread after TC? I want to see how they work out there and if they make the cut, then I'll have perfect 20/20 hindsight! :shades:
as an aside, I think we get a blue chip CB or Safety next draft and if Babin doesn't work out for us, can we please trade him for a 2nd rounder?
Re: What would you have done
Instead of signing Babin, I would have signed a playmaking FS by the name of Bob Sanders.
Re: What would you have done
I refuse to state what I would have done in the draft until I've had at least half of a season of play to evaluate so I can decide what my decisons should have, I mean would have, been.
Re: What would you have done
I would have used the third pick to try to get someone who could step in and reasonably compete for a starting spot at either CB or FS. Instead, we got a WR who may not even be able to step in and make a material contribution this season.
Although I like the upside potential of JJ, my next choice for this pick would have been a WR with Div. 1 experience. It is my understanding that there were several good WRs that got drafted immediately after we made this pick.
I like the Amobi pick...we have a lot of holes and you have to take the best player on the board. It would have been nice to get help on the o-line or the secondary, but not if it means not getting quality at 10.
Re: What would you have done
With Schaub you have a guy who hasn't gotten a chance because of a huge contract in front of him.
Re: What would you have done
Re: What would you have done
Nice to see some of your guys around. I kind of miss our spars by the way apple
Re: What would you have done
Re: What would you have done
I was suprised by the pick of Brandon Harrison when Josh Gattis was still available. I really thought they were going to take Gattis.

7th grade (U.S.)
7th grade takes much of what you learned in 6th grade to an entirely new level. In particular, you'll now learn to do everything with negative numbers (we're talking everything--adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing, fractions, decimals... everything!). You'll also take your algebraic skills to new heights by tackling two-step equations. 7th grade is also when you start thinking about probability (which is super important for realizing that casinos and lotteries are really just ways of taking money away from people who don't know probability) and dig deeper into the world of data and statistics. Onward! (Content was selected for this grade level based on a typical curriculum in the United States.)
Rates, proportional relationships, and ratios
Throughout your day you probably encounter situations where you need to compare two numbers using the same or different units of measurement. Perhaps you want to know how many math problems you can complete in an hour…or how many scoops of ice cream you get out of a gallon bucket. In this set of tutorials you will learn about rate, a special ratio in which two terms are expressed in different units of measurement, and about proportional relationships, how one variable changes in proportion to another. You will practice solving problems and then construct a few of your own.
Negative Numbers
In this group of tutorials, we'll explore the world of negative numbers. Unlike real life where we perceive anything "negative" as being bad, we'll see that negative numbers are quite useful and central to all mathematical concepts. We'll practice adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing negative numbers; learn about absolute value, negative exponents, and exponents with negative bases.
Fractions and decimals
I bet if you were asked to give a number, your answer would be a whole number. Don't forget about fractions and decimals--they're numbers too, only expressed differently. In this set of tutorials we'll demonstrate adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions and decimals, as well as converting fractions to decimals and vice versa. Finally, we'll get into some word problems so you can see how often fractions and decimals play a part in our everyday life.
Variables and expressions
In this section, the rubber really hits the road (algebraically speaking, of course). For example, order of operations is the starting point for solving all equations. Learning to combine like terms is equally important. We'll also look at manipulating and interpreting expressions, understanding two step equations, and linear inequalities. Lots of great stuff in this series of tutorials.
Why is geometry important? It's all about shapes -- triangles, circles, pyramids, spheres, diamonds, and more. Geometric shapes are all around you, and the world is built with them. In this series of tutorials and exercises you'll become familiar with Euclidean geometry and terms like segments, scale drawings, parts of a circle, area, volume, angles, and geometric figures.
Statistics and probability
We begin our exploration of statistics and probability with a basic understanding of measures of central tendency, including the mean, mode, and median. We'll then look at the importance of sample populations in statistics, in particular that are representative and random. Next up is a discussion of basic probability and the "chances" of a random event occurring. We'll wrap it up looking at different kinds of probability and how we can estimate those, especially when compound events are involved. So get your coins and start flipping. We're going to have some fun!
Rates, proportional relationships, and ratios
Throughout your day you probably encounter situations where you need to compare two numbers using the same or different units of measurement. Perhaps you want to know how many math problems you can complete in an hour…or how many scoops of ice cream you get out of a gallon bucket. In this set of tutorials you will learn about rate, a special ratio in which two terms are expressed in different units of measurement, and about proportional relationships, how one variable changes in proportion to another. You will practice solving problems and then construct a few of your own.
All content in "Rates, proportional relationships, and ratios"
It can be useful to measure 2 things, but in different units of measurement, and then express that difference as a special ratio. Essentially, this is the definition of rate. We might compare how far a car drives with how long it takes to get to a destination, and then express it as miles per hour. Or perhaps we want to compare the cost of different size bags of jellybeans, which can be expressed as dollars per pound. You get the idea. This tutorial helps you understand these fundamental applications of rate. Common Core Standard: 7.RP.A.1
Proportional relationships
The concept of proportionality is pivotal to our understanding of how things in the universe are contructed. Proportional relationships in mathematics examine relationships between two equal ratios. For example, perhaps you're painting your bedroom and need to know how to mix 2 colors together to create a third color. Understanding the ratio of color 1 to color 2 determines your ability to know how many cans of both colors you need to paint your whole room in color 3. Pay attention because you'll find that these ideas will keep popping up in your life! Common Core Standards: 7.RP.A.2, 7.RP.A.2a, 7.RP.A.2b, 7.RP.A.2c, 7.RP.A.2d
- Analyzing and identifying proportional relationships
- Analyzing proportional relationships in a graph
- Analyzing proportional relationships from a table
- Analyzing and identifying proportional relationships
- Comparing proportional relationships
- Constructing an equation for a proportional relationship
- Constructing and comparing proportional relationships
Constructing proportions
Your knowledge of ratios has extended into understanding proportions. (If not, back up and be sure you get it!) Now that we know what a proportional relationship is, let's construct some real problems to solve. In this group of tutorials we'll practice writing and solving proportions, with both known and unknown variables. Common Core Standards: 7.RP.A.2, 7.RP.A.3

don't read the boards every day so was just wondering.
Not really.
It's just with half the damage immediately, the other half over ten seconds is kinda...'meh'. Especially when mitigated by MR/Regeneration.
The dot portion seems to be doing current HP instead of maximum atm.
Ignite, maybe not. Ult? More than likely provided they have MR and you lack magic penetration.
Supposedly it is working as it is supposed to. But I think Guinsoo said he would check it to make sure it isn't as you stated doing a % of the current HP and not the total of the enemy champion. Im not sure if that's what he said 100% (im pretty sure I saw somewhere him saying that) or if it is just described incorrectly on the skill itself.
Too bad there isn't a test mode for these sorts of things.
Most I've seen is its working as intended.
It just does not look like it. Its frustrating. I dropped Grave/Ignite on a level 5 Kayle with 275 health, she lived on no health from using a mere potion. Really... A Potion > Children Of The Grave.
Before anyone asks, this was in a practice game and my mate was the Kayle. I wanted to see something and asked him not to heal. He was in my vision the whole time.
He did not heal.
I siphoned the kill a few seconds later, but thats not the point.

Microchip's New 2.4 GHz RF High-Power Amplifier Supports 256-QAM Modulation; Extends Range Of Ultra-High Data Rate WLAN Systems
Microchip Technology Inc. (NASDAQ: MCHP), a leading provider of microcontroller, mixed-signal, analog and Flash-IP solutions, today announced its latest 2.4 GHz RF high-power amplifier—the SST12CP12—which adds support for the 256-QAM ultra-high data rate modulation. With its high linear output power of up to 23 dBm at a dynamic EVM as low as 1.8% and MCS8 40 MHz bandwidth modulation, along with 25 dBm linear power at 3% EVM, this amplifier significantly extends the range of IEEE 802.11b/g/n WLAN systems while providing excellent power at the maximum 256-QAM data rate. It is also spectrum mask compliant up to 28.5 dBm for 802.11b/g communication, and utilizes Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing (OFDM) to correct severe channel conditions without the need for complex equalization filters. Additionally, the SST12CP12 reduces board space with its small 3x3x0.55 mm, 16-pin QFN package.
Achieving the maximum data rate and longest range, while saving board space, is essential to Wi-Fi ® access-point, router and set-top-box designers. However, they also need to reduce power consumption, integrate input-matching functionality and maintain temperature stability while ensuring transmission power control. The SST12CP12 power amplifier has a low operating current of 380 mA at 23 dBm, which enables more transmission channels and a higher data rate for each system. This amplifier also features 50 ohm on-chip input match and simple output match, which is easy to use and speeds time to market. Additionally, the integrated linear power detector provides temperature stability and immunity to VSWR radio-wave reflection, for accurate output power control that ensures all of the power reaches its destination.
"Microchip's RF power amplifiers have a strong position in the WLAN market, due to their reliability combined with high-power efficiencies that can only be achieved using InGaP/GaAs HBT," said Daniel Chow, vice president of Microchip's RF Division. "With the release of the SST12CP12, we're providing the same reliable operation over temperature at extra-low EVM. In conjunction with its high-efficiency operation, this new power amplifier extends the range of an ultra-high data rate 256-QAM system."

Is Peace Possible?
War, strife, deaths. The cause of woes in our world is too often religion. Those who promise heavenly peace unfortunately become the very ones who prevent peace on earth. . . Peace seems impossible.
I have, however, tasted elongated moments of peace. For example, the Parliament of World's Religions stands as one of the great expressions of hope for increased cooperation and peaceful initiatives among adherents of the world's religions. At the last Parliament in Melbourne, I lived peace on earth -- the Muslims sat with the Hindus, the pagans held hands with the rabbis, and the Dalai Lama joked with Elder Woman of Wurundjeri, "Is this [piece of animal skin] alive?"
Here is one special snippet, though transitory has inspired me, and hopefully will others.
I rushed into a room packed with several hundred audience members. Dr. Hans Kung and others were at the center table while concentric circles of chairs surrounded them. They offered a "seat at the table" for people with comments and questions on the topic of financial crisis. Seeing the long line of men queued up and no female speaker at the table, everyone objected. An uproar led to a designated seat at the table for women.
I had a comment to make but preferred not to use the "affirmative action" seat; nevertheless I was shuffled up there and given a seat. . .
After that session, a Dominican nun and a theology professor whom I had met in other sessions came up to me. She held my hands and looked deeply into me. She told me about some gifts that she observed in me and counseled me to take steps so that "you may not be disposed of." "You must still feel like you were not supposed to be at the table because you began with, 'Why is a Buddhist nun who keeps to the vow of poverty sitting here?'" Indeed, I remember my pause after the question and how the moderator looked distinctly at me with that exact question in his eyes. (Fortunately I had a pretty good response.)
Dr. Streeter shared with me her vows and what they mean to her, including advice and caution spoken from her personal experience. In her humble and down to earth manner, she simply stated, "Time is ripe for women." I could not agree more. My heart burst with warmth and gratitude for a mentor from another religion. Thank you, Dr. Streeter!
Thank you, Dr. Streeter and
Thank you, Dr. Streeter and Guo Cheen for placing importance and hope on the aspect of peace and furthermore, peace through women. It is difficult to imagine peace but it is more difficult to understand hatred. Thanks for sharing the words of encouragement!
Holding hands for peace
Dear Guo Cheen,
What a joy it is to welcome you to our community and read your story and words of wisdom. In a world that is ripe with war, most which are waged in the name of religion - something that should bind us as humans rather than divide us - can leave us feeling empty and sad at the end of the day... but it is moments like these they you so beautifully expressed, that shows us glimmers of hope and paths of peace for realizing a just society where everyone is respected for their heritage, their gender, their religion or sexuality.
Thank you for sharing this moment with us!
In friendship,
Peace on earth
As someone who grew up in the church, I am always saddened to witness the anger and hatred that fanatics of religion cause. One of my favorite songs comes with a memory of candlelit rooms, and the quiet nights of Advent: Truly He taught us to love one another; His law is love and His Gospel is peace. Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother, And in His Name all oppression shall cease. (O Holy Night)
Yet then war wages, with religious sides claiming to know, and to kill over the "truth." Thank you for illuminating a time of true sisterhood and the truth that is inherent in love.
I look forward to reading more from you!

Nashville (AP) The Tennessee Titans are asking fans coming to the Colts' game on Thursday night to bring non-perishable food with them to donate to the Second Harvest Food Bank.
Volunteers will be collecting donations starting at 5 p.m. CST until 15 minutes after kickoff.
Second Harvest is asking for canned tuna or chicken, peanut butter, canned vegetables and fruit, pasta, cereal and canned soups and stews. Jaynee Day, president of the Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee says food donations are critical with more families relying on them and their partners for emergency help.
Donations also can be dropped off at area Kroger stores, and Second Harvest is holding a virtual food drive online through Thursday.

Rita and Moty went out of their way to make all their guests welcome. Delicious Israeli style full breakfast served al fresco near their pet caged exotic birds and monkeys. Located 6 minutes from bus station in quiet residential neighborhood. Complimentary transport to and from town. Moty conducts tours as we'll. friendly guests. Highly recommended.
My husband and I just came back from a 7 night stay at the Kibutz de Rita in David. We loved the hospitality from Moty and Rita, they made us feel at home with them. All the meals were really good, even extra servings for Dinner, well worth the $ 15.00 per person charge. Rita is an excellent cook, always something different for breakfast and dinner. You definitely got your money's worth. The beds were real comfortable, we never had a bad nights sleep. We never expected daily room service and a change of linen while we were there, but got it. The B & B (which is what it reminds us of) is rated as a Hostel, but the service was far more than a Hostel. A pleasant surprise, not your typical Hostel experience. Very clean and comfortable, great location. Just a $2.00 cab ride from the center of town. Lots of tropical birds, three toucans and three monkeys to entertain you. It was nice to feed the monkeys, they are so friendly, overall a great experience. There is a pool table which was nice, we loved using it at night. Our room had a TV, which was convenient considering there was Fifa Copa Mundial 2014 Soccer on. Moty even gave us a ride a few times, once to get our bus tickets and once to get our bus at 3am. Which is above and beyond what we expected of the service. We took 2 tours with Moty, in addition he took us all around the city to explain the areas to us. We mentioned we were considering relocating to Panama and interested in the areas around his house. The tours covered a lot of things we wanted to see such as: Waterfalls, visited a wood carving master with a demonstration, Cigar wrapping, Sugar processing with an old wooden machine manned by Oxen, saw how pineapples were processed at a Pineapple plantation (able to take some samples), Coffee plantation in the upper elevation of Boquete and the Boquete area , we went to the Hot springs by horseback, not to be missed (great experience). They were the best tours that to ok all day.
Our stay was too short!
Rita and Moty and all the staff were great. Rita's cooking is terrific. Very nice house and garden
The location in a very nice neighborhood is a bit out of the way but Moty cheerfully offers to drive people around
Rita is fantastically helpful and hospitable. In addition to being comfortable, there is some real Panamanian character here, unlike some of the larger David hotels.
Everyone there, from Rita, her sister and mother, as well as Moti, were always pleasant and accommodating. They helped us with local information and suggestions for things to see and do that became our favorites. That, combined with delicious food makes a Kibutz de Rita a great choice for anyone!
Rita and her family were very friendly and prepared an excellent breakfast. Perfect location for overnighting near the airport.
The bird collection was noisy early in the morning and the leashed monkeys seemed sad.
Very friendly staff,very accomodating. Good home cooked food. Owner is also a guide and can arrange anything you would like to do
It was as if we were staying with close young friends!

Latvian consumer prices grew at the slowest pace in 20 months in June as transport costs fell.
The inflation rate dropped to 1.9 percent from 2.2 percent in May, the statistics office, based in the capital, Riga, said today on its website. Prices fell 0.1 percent from the previous month.

Great little brush, perfect to keep in your makeup bag. I think it was only $5.00 at Sephora.

Question About Cheese and Alcohol
Hubby and I both have our first appointment at Medi-weightloss tomorrow evening. So I'm trying to clear out anything we might not be allowed to have and either enjoying it or pitching it. We have some chevre (goat cheese) that is expensive and yummy so I'm wondering if some of that with some celery or something would be allowed or if I should enjoy it tonight.
Is it also safe to assume that absolutely no alcohol is allowed? We don't drink much but we do have some beer in the ridge and hubby makes mead (honey based wine but not necessarily sweet) so we have gallons of that. If I'm allowed some even if only once a week that's great. If not I'll have a beer tonight then give the rest to the neighbor. We both have a lot of weight to lose so I do't want to keep beer in the house to tempt me/go stale. The mead isn't a problem as that ages very well so I don't mind putting off a glass of that for a while.
Our neighbor recommended the place to us. She's lost 50 lbs since Jan and really only needed to lose 40-45. Hubby and I both need to lose a lot more (him about 80, me about 130). We really want to make this work. I just really don't know what to expect or if they will say that some healthy foods are off limits (like Atkins and corn) or if some unhealthy foods are OK (hubby loves jalepeno cheese hot dogs). I'm getting pretty excited/anxious.
basically if it has carbs in it, you cant have it the first week. my first week was deli lunch meats, shrimp cocktail (made with lo carb ketchup and dab of horse radish), chicken breast and ground chicken and mrs dash seasoning, scrambled eggs and turkey sausage, turkey pepperoni. some clinics will allow cottage cheeses (about 6 carbs) and plain greek yogurt (about 6 carbs).
as for the goat cheese, i am guessing it would be higher in fat than we are allowed and if it has any flavorings added to it, they may have carbs. herbs would be okay, but i have seen sundried tomato chevre (tomatos have carbs) and like raspberry preserves added to make chevre and that is going to have carbs in it too. you can always take the wrapper from the chevre (if there is one) and ask at the clinic. it might be ok for week 2.....
now dont go giving everything away, at my clinic the first week they gave you a shopping tote and take home and fill. if you brought it back full, you got a $35 clinic credit. they take the food and donate it to a local food pantry.
oh alcohol, my clinic says no for first 30 days. i am not to 30 days yet (friday) so i dont know what they will say after that....
The first week is mainly going no to very low carb. Most beers have carbs in them, even mich ultra has like 2 or so. If you can avoid it for one week untill you get into ketosis you will be able to incorporate a few carbs back in, but really by the 2nd week you just want some dang veggies :) There are all kinds of recipes on this section of the website that list safe or not for acute phase. My clinic allowed for cottage cheese and / or yogurt on week one, but you can ask the clinic about the cheese, it may have more fat than they prefer but if you count the calories and they have no carbs it may be ok.

Gear Question
we are buying our first bike rack so, we...
Member since
we are buying our first bike rack so, we have a 2010 escape. will this fit? we have towing package.
Ryan Hamilton
Member since
Measure your receiver hitch to make sure it's 2". Many are 1 1/4". Though you can pick up a reducer at a store to make this work if you really like this particular bike rack.
Dean Whitehead
Member since
It should work fine, just find out the specific size of your receiver hitch (2" or 1.25") and order the correct one...
Todd Schmalhurst
Member since
Escapes typically come with a 1 1/4". I would strongly recommend that you buy a rack with the correct size hitch because it will give you a more solid connection to your car than if you have to use an adapter.
Ian Pickard
Member since
You can also get an extension to take your hitch from a 1 1/4" to a 2". I would suggest not doing this though. I tried it at first and you get a lot more movement from the rack while driving. I hit a speed bump and knocked my bikes into my bumber and scratched the paint. Shoot for a rack that is an exact match for your hitch.

Solid bib
Chris Lamont
Member since
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
These were purchased at 50% off. The overall fit is fairly comfortable, and the pad although I thought was too thin at first, is adequate, and fairly comfortable. I really like the power band at the leg bottom. Fit is not quite the italian / euro that I was expecting. These run a little larger than Castelli or other italian brands. Maybe not a big as a North American brand sizing.
They aren't my favorite short by far, but a decent value for no-nonsense shorts.

Mitsouko by Guerlain, vintage extrait of course.
Oakmoss is an interesting ingredient that use regularly in the 80s.
There are a lot oakmoss based fragrance, but which one do you consider the best rendering of oakmoss ?
I have not tried the classic Chanel PM, but from what I own, New York by Parfums de Nicolai is amazing, really classy, it is not too potent & not too calm.
***My favourite from my collection***
-------- Amouage Tribute Attar
------ Serge Lutens: Ambre Sultan
-------- Les Exclusifs de Chanel: Sycamore
------ Amouage: Fate Man
-------- Amouage: Epic Man
------ Tom Ford Private Blend: Noir de Noir
-------- Terre D'Hermès Pure Parfum
------ EDP FM: Carnal Flower
-------- Neela Vermire Creations: Trayee
------ Dior: Leather Oud
------- Hermèssence: Ambre Narguilé
Mitsouko by Guerlain, vintage extrait of course.
"You are here to enable the Divine purpose of the Universe to unfold. That is how important you are."
-- Eckhart Tolle
Trumpers Eucris and Murdocks Fougere have a good dose of oakmoss that can be smelled without having to track down old vintage frags.
Some that I own are AdP Colonia Essenza and Aventus. I also have Azzaro PH. All of them have a nice play on oakmoss, but it's too close to call for me between the AdP and Aventus.
Easily the best oakmoss frag I own - I find that the heartnotes of Aventus are quite similar to Eucris (the blackcurrant and oakmoss combo).
Although I find Eucris to be more linear (and less long-lasting) than Aventus, who really cares when it has such a fantastic accord for the majority of its (still very good) longevity?
I like my Aventus, but I love my Eucris.
Another for Eucris. Love that juice.

Another vote for vintage Mitsouko. It's reference quality imo.
Eucris's moss is very strong, green-rotten, I'd say. Vintage Mitsouko is smooth and rich. And of course vintage Chypre has the thing in full view.
I have never smelled Eucris, I had no idea it was so oakmoss prominent.
"You are here to enable the Divine purpose of the Universe to unfold. That is how important you are."
-- Eckhart Tolle
only a question: when vintage Mitsouko is "vintage"? it exists since 1920..... until when, we can call "vintage Mitsouko"?
Borrowing from Providence Perfume Co.:
"An Ode to Oakmoss...
Hello you sticky brown thing! You lichen you! How have you been? I'm sorry I ignored you all summer. You just weren't what I was looking for. My fingers rummaged through bottles and bottles of botanicals searching for just the right ingredients to make light summery perfumes: sparkling citruses, bold florals, green cool herbals and you were not desired. You were pushed to the back with your estranged sibling angelica. You were too deep and mossy and dark. But now, with the temperature falling along with multicolored leaves, you are just right."
I think the context here is unique and revealing...from a perfumer's nose and mind. However, I believe that Oakmoss is not seasonal, as someone who loves Oakmoss both as a note and as a fixative. Two cases in point I would like to mention are YSL Pour Homme and Eau Sauvage. Vintage bottles have wonderful, deep aromatic citrus compositions with herbs, spices, wood, vetiver and light florals - brilliance in both, but of course, each a very unique and historical fragrance. However, (and I would rather actually expound upon each separately, but for the sake of focusing on Oakmoss as a key missing note in current formulations of both) they are remarkably different today. The latest version of YSL Pour Homme no longer even has Oakmoss as a listed ingredient. I have recent juice from about 7 years ago of YSL Pour Homme - it was reformulated and still a very light touch of moss, but vetiver is the key base note...along with sandalwood, cedar, patchouli and a nice musk (that isn't totally clean). Eau Sauvage (from a reformulated bottle of a few years ago) was able to keep the freshness and wonderful hedione with the sparkling citrus and nice sharp herbs...and the base kept a light note of the maximum .1% of Oakmoss, had some nice damp tree moss, but is definitely shorter lived. The vetiver, sandalwood, light musk, green patchouli and amber do not last much. What was once a deep and gorgeous scent has been reformulated to a light Eau de Cologne strength bottle. I do not get great longevity with Vintage Eau Sauvage - but the depth of scent is so noticeably lighter. I do not judge brilliant and timeless compositions based on longevity typically, however...here, the missing fixative quality of Oakmoss both shortened the time you had with it and also the gorgeous richness that it used to offer. I will still wear Eau Sauvage and even layer current formulation with some precious Vintage...for, I refuse to let the memory go. Today, those of us who loves these scents seek out Vintage bottles for a reason.
'Twas the magical ingredient for so many decades of scent...opening noses of world to Guerlain's creation - Mitsouko. The aromatic fougeres were born with the fern in mind (for freshness) - but the damp Oakmoss was essential for the depth and fixative quality. Chypres cannot exist without moss, either. Scent, as a whole, will never be the same without it. And, the fact that IFRA banned Tree Moss as well effective 1/1/13...well, maybe the Mayans were right after all.
I have too many favorites to list, but wanted to mention the noticeable difference (for those of us who know, it is rhetorical) between two wonderful masculine aromatic citruses that have been forever altered. And, from a scent lover's perspective (mine) - how it differs from a perfumer's perspective. Oakmoss is a key ingredient in scents year-round, not just fall & winter...
Some perfumes are as fragrant as an infants flesh, sweet as an oboes cry, and greener than the spring; While others are triumphant, decadent or rich; Having the expansion of infinite things, like ambergris and musk, benzoin and frankincense, which sing the transports of the mind and every sense.

Hi boys. Interesting thread. I have been thinking about Oakmoss recently too. I decided on Oxford and Cambridge to wear today. I think that the Original Paco Rabanne is good on oakmoss. We have a really old bottle in the house, must dig it out.
As far as I understand the original Paloma Picasso (for women) has a good oakmoss note too. Now I want to smell some actual oakmoss!
Hello Foustie -
In the realm of Aromatic Fougeres, Vintage Paco Rabanne offers a wonderful base that includes brilliant Oakmoss. However, my love for it (as I consider it my favorite masculine creation of all time)...is based upon the entire composition and the entirety of its rich base notes. Paco Rabanne displays excellent use of coumarin (Tonka bean), Amber, a warm Musk, Cistus, Lentisk, and a gorgeous Honeyed Tobacco note (not honey as a note itself).
But, without a second thought...yes, the Oakmoss in Paco Rabanne (as well as so many Aromatic Fougeres going back the original, Fougere Royale by Houbigant) is both essential and what makes the Vintage bottles so wonderful, still today.
By the way, you can get Oakmoss essential oil - here is one of very good quality (I am not the seller or anyway affiliated, by the way), but just trying to help point you in the right direction.
And, on Ebay - a large list of places to go: http://compare.ebay.com/like/2003755...Types&var=sbar
I fully concur - but only in Vintage Grey Flannel cologne. I found a bottle (labeled as "Cologne") in the fall...it wears so incredibly well. The violet, oakmoss and citrus come together with a feeling of naturalness - very organic texture. One could also roll in fresh-cut grass with morning dew on it to get this desired effect as well - while holding fresh-picked violets and squeezing lemon and bergamot onto their skin. ;-)

Steffi Graf Admiration Thread Vol 2

Re: Steffi Graf Admiration Thread Vol 2
You can feel the metaphorical tectonic plates of the German press and public and Steffi Graf are once more grinding against each other. Something seismic is bound to happen before the tournament is finished.
Sssuper! Steffi is here!
Hamburger Abendblatt
Tuesday, July 26, 1988
No. 172, Page 7
Steffi Graf is finally here. But her entrance into Hamburg was not akin to that of a gladiator. The undisclosed arrival date could lure no fans at all to the airport.
Even at 6:01 p.m., when she emerged from her contracted coach, make and model Opel Senator (her advertising agreement with the Rüsselsheim automobile company makes her around a million Marks richer each year), no hand stirred, not with applause nor to take out a pen for an autograph. In the morning it had been totally different. But standing for hours in front of the Ramada hotel had made the Steffi fans tired, and they put to flight.
And even in the hotel lobby, the Wimbledon champion received no applause. A camera crew, shooting an advertisement for Fielmann glasses, only briefly disturbed themselves from their work. The girlish models, with Fielmann products on their powdered noses, also proved themselves not especially sharp-eyed and asked: "You mean that's Steffi?"
The 19-year-old from Brühl, who wanted no fuss anyway, could only be fine with it. With mother Heidi as her only escort, she quickly disappeared into the elevator, reappearing ten minutes later as the easy-to-recognize tennis player: gray track pants, white polo shirt with inconspicuous advertising patches and conspicuous shoes with three stripes. And the likewise advertisement-adorned Opel raced to Rothenbaum.
There, things seemed somewhat different. The fans almost flung themselves on their blonde favorite. Steffi gave her scribbled autographs with no particular patience. Only when two "sweet lassies" from Wellingsbüttel, Mareike and Wiebke (both 8) fumbled after paper and pencils in their colorful backpacks, did she affectionately say: "Slowly now, you'll have your turn, too." But when Mareike was desirous of more autographs for brothers and sisters back home, Steffi's composure vanished. What she quickly put to paper then could have been from Jane Doe.
She then quickly went on the practice court. She had to employ the Chilean Ivan Camus, coach of Wiltrud Probst, as a one-off practice partner. Pavel Slozil, Steffi's Czechoslovakian coach, had been held up by traffic on the way from Brühl to Hamburg. Mother Heidi reprehended gently: "They took a long time." After an hour, even Steffi doesn't want to anymore. For her, today is a day off. Tomorrow, she must start against Regina Marsikova (Czechoslovakia) -- one of her easiest exercises.

Recipe gone Post Move

Hi there!
I had added a LONG WINDED recipe as well as updated my profile pre move around 4pm est (toronto time) and now its gone and profile is not updated… Is it possible this happened around the time the site was being moved?
I had no idea about it :(

Hi Azuraskai, that is almost certainly what happened. The move only took about an hour, but you must have added your recipe only moments before we moved. Very sorry about that.
