With his smoky eyes and tousled hair, the latest Rolling Stone cover story subject could pass for any rising U.S. music star. But this is no pop portrait. Overlaid with the headline "The Bomber", the picture shows Dzhokhar Tsarnaev (19), the Boston Marathon bombing suspect, and has triggered backlash.
One criminologist warned that it glorified Tsarnaev of planting bombs that killed three and injured 264 — and could send out a dangerous message. The U.S. pharmacy chain CVS said it would not stock it. The photo accompanies an article by Rolling Stone contributing editor Janet Reitman, which the magazine described as a "deeply reported" investigation into Tsarnaev's life and "a riveting and heartbreaking account of how a charming kid with a bright future became a monster". — © Guardian Newspapers Limited, 2013

Federal Pay:
Complexities in Calculating Federal Civilian Firefighters' Pay
GGD-89-131: Published: Sep 29, 1989. Publicly Released: Sep 29, 1989.

Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed federal civilian firefighters' compensation to determine whether: (1) pay calculation complexities have resulted in pay errors; (2) promotions to supervisory positions have resulted in pay reductions from lost overtime pay; and (3) legislation would correct these pay problems.
GAO found that: (1) errors from misinterpreted regulations could be attributed to payroll complexities; (2) errors will be less likely when the Department of Defense (DOD) completes the full automation of its payroll systems; (3) firefighters were undergoing pay reductions due to lost overtime following promotions to supervisory levels; and (4) legislation was needed to entitle supervisors to overtime.

Maxim Vengerov violin; Itamar Golan piano
Bach and Beethoven
Recorded live at Wigmore Hall
05 April 2012
CD bookings are subject to a £1.50 booking fee. This fee is in addition to the £1.00 per booking fee that will be applied if your basket also contains tickets.
About this CD
A virtuoso of legendary renown, Maxim Vengerov is acclaimed as a musician of the highest order. Following a prodigious debut at the age of five, he has enjoyed a successful career throughout the world and, over the past quarter-century, has been internationally celebrated as a violinist, teacher and conductor.
His return to Wigmore Hall in April 2012 will be remembered as one of the great landmarks of the London concert season, as he performed cornerstones of the violin repertoire to a sold-out Hall, confirming his reputation as one of the world's most dynamic artists. With a warm, rich tone, he created a personal and intimate atmosphere from the very beginning of Bach's Partita No. 2 in D minor, which opened the recital. Playful and searching, his soulful outpourings and refined expression resonated deeply though every movement.
Vengerov was joined by recital partner Itamar Golan for a fiery and adventurous performance of Beethoven's grand 'Kreuzer' sonata. With an energetic approach, this shining rendition presented both musicians as equal partners in the magnificent masterwork, their ensemble fresh and conversational throughout.
The blazing passion is almost tangible in the two encores, Scherzo-Tarantella by Wienawski and Hungarian Dance No. 1 by Brahms, as Vengerov's true virtuosity was fully unleashed to awe-inspiring effect. Marking his much anticipated return to the performance platform, this recording is an absolute 'must-have'.
'…this was formidable music-making in which scale and prowess blended to produce edge-of-your-seat excitement.' The Guardian
'…power and passion, humour, lightness and grace, brilliant virtuosity and deep musicianship all played their part to create a miraculous procession of musical jewels.' Slipped Disc

Is there any way to fold down the rear seats? That may be one angle - crawling in that way could be possible. Otherwise, it will take some force and you may risk some damage. I recommend perhaps visiting a local body shop for some advice?
Answer #2raiderron February 24, 2011, 00:17Master
If the items inside the trunk are compacted down because the lid was slammed down it may just need to be pushed down at latch area from the outside while turning key, is in a bind?

Shure Micro-Bodypack Used at Academy Awards
NILES, IL, March 12, 2009 â The 81st Academy Awards kicked off on a comedic note, with host Hugh Jackman joking that a recessionary budget had forced the cancellation of an elaborate opening number. Left to create his own instead, the singing and dancing relied on cardboard set pieces, lawn chairs, and other yard sale props, put together with good effect to parody the films garnering the night's award nominations.
"It was an original bit featuring a cameo by Anne Hathaway," noted wireless guru Dave Bellamy of Burbank-based Soundtronics, "With only two people onstage, we used eight wireless mics. That pretty much set the tone for the rest of the evening, which was extraordinarily RF dependent from start to finish."
Given the task of developing the wireless blueprint for the stellar event, Bellamy used Soundtronics' proprietary and fail-proof Phoenix III antenna system to help tame the confines of the cavernous Kodak Theatre.
Handheld Shure UHF-R® wireless transmitters with SM58®capsules were seen onstage over the course of the show, but lavalier mics managed a bulk of the input from podium to performances, with a total of 44 wireless channels dedicated to the tiny, roving capsules throughout the evening. Of these 44 channels, more than half were used with Shure bodypack transmitters. Shure UR1 bodypacks were used for all of the stationary applications at the podiums, cutting through a high noise floor onstage with 100 milliwatts of power, but for the talent on-the-move, away from the podiums, Shure's diminutive UR1M Micro-Bodypack was used.
"The working theory was to divide the stage and house into as many zones as possible," Bellamy explained. "Using this technique, the goal was to run as little gain as possible. It's a loud stage. The video projection puts out a lot of noise, and so does the lighting. I have to be able to tune that all out. That takes antennas with a lot of gain and directionality, and more power. The more power I have coming off the transmitters, the more I can turn down the gain, and then less noise comes into the system."
Overall sound design credits for the 81st Oscars went to Pat Baltzell, and Audio Director Ed Greene mixed for broadcast. The showâs A2s were Debbie and Jeff Fecteau, Ric Teller, and Steven Anderson. Given the role of deciding who was going to wear which mic among the large inventory of lavaliers, Debbie Fecteau mapped a plan accordingly, which was then implemented by the rest of the A2s.
"The small size of the Shure UR1M Micro-Bodypack made it possible for us to just slip the transmitter into a jacket pocket in many cases," Steven Anderson reports. "Time is critical and with this bodypack, we were able to mic the talent and be gone before they even realized we were there."
For one medley of song and dance featuring performers in tuxes and tails, UR1Ms were sewn directly into the tails of the performer's outfits. "In a case like this, no one wants a transmitter sticking out of their wardrobe, it distorts the natural curves of the body," Anderson added. "The UR1M literally disappears, but still works flawlessly. I've even taped them to people's necks with surgical tape and covered them with makeup. For Beyonce's performance here at the Oscars, we sewed one into her top hat."
Tipping the scales at only 2.2 ounces without batteries, the UR1M is the most compact bodypack in the Shure catalog. Tunable in 25 kHz steps between 60 and 75 MHz, the device measures a scant 1.92 inches high by 2.38 inches wide, and is only .66 inches deep.
This year's Oscars aired on ABC. Producers Bill Condon and Laurence Mark rewrote the script as part of efforts to breathe new life into the ceremony, and did their best to keep their work secret, even from the presenters and performers. A new set and stage were designed by David Rockwell as well, while action on the red carpet was orchestrated by Robert Osborne.

December 22, 2014
UNIONDALE, N.Y. (AP) - Edmonton Oilers forward Taylor Hall scored two goals just eight seconds apart to break the team mark set by Wayne Gretzky.
The 21-year-old Hall connected at 15:52 of the first period with a wrist shot from the left circle and then knocked a rebound past New York Islanders goalie Evgeni Nabokov at 16:00 on Thursday night.
Gretzky, the NHL career leader in goals and points, scored two goals in nine seconds against St. Louis on Feb. 18, 1981, in the third period of Edmonton's 9-2 victory.
Hall, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2010 draft, turned Edmonton's deficit into a 2-1 lead. He entered play Thursday with only one goal in seven games this season.

2008 Toyota CamryVisitor, Spring Creek, NV, September 09, 2014 09:30We have a 2008 Camry SE, this car has been phenomenal so far. It currently has 94,000 on the clock and we bought it new. Yes it has had some minor flaws, the visors did break (eventually covered under a recall) and the brakes do wobble a little coming down long mountain grades. Other than that I have changed oil and tires and that is it. I am still even on the original brakes. Fuel economy for the V6 is close to 30 on the highway. My water pump is starting to make a little noise, but for 100k miles and the only issue is a water pump? I will take it. Don't let these couple of complaints keep you from this vehicle. Toyota sells thousands of these cars annually, if they sucked that bad then people wouldn't be driving them. Oh buy American you say? Some of my WORST vehicles were from Govt Motors, I drive a Ford to work everyday and it seems to be okay, but our mining roads are rattling it apart.
2008 Toyota CamryVisitor, Fairview, NC, August 17, 2014 10:55At around 55,000 miles, my 2008 Toyota Camry started drinking oil. Using approximately 1 quart every 800 miles. According to the Toyota owners manual this is acceptable so they won't do anything about it. I have to carry oil around in my trunk all the time, just in case my oil light comes on. Not much use in changing the oil since it is always "new". Now my dam sun visor is broken on the drivers side and it won't stay up! I WILL NEVER buy a TOYOTA AGAIN!

2008 Toyota CamryVisitor, Morganza, LA, March 21, 2013 11:472008 Toyota Camry I bought mine new with 13 miles. Replaced both sunvisors, replaced both brake rotors, seat are not comfortable, cheap interior, now the A/C is not working. Toyota is telling me that the cost to repair it is over $2100 parts & Labor. The car have 16223 miles. No one else will touch it because the condenser is not in a easy place to access.
2008 Toyota CamryVisitor, Walnut, CA, February 06, 2013 12:14I owned many Toyotas and I feel for the people having problems with this Camry. This 08 Camry SE is the only toyota I have made in USA and I am having more problems than all of the others combined. The acceleration problem is well known and had dealer fix that as part of massive recall. They shaved the underside of the carpet and maybe replaced the pedal. I noticed an improvement in the automatic shifting after they reprogrammed the ecu. No stalling on turns. The visor is being recalled after I got mine replaced at 20K. Tires replaced at 28K with Continental DSW, very good tires. The front rotors cause a little shudder when braking at high speeds, turned it at 40K and now needs another one at 60K. Brake pads are still good but they say original are hard on rotors so I am going to go with Akebono pro-act. Now it's past warranty, I can't open my seldom used sunroof. The rubber seal is sticking as it tries to go down and in. The sun and waxing probably doomed it.
2008 Toyota CamryVisitor, Moline, IL, January 20, 2013 08:17I bought mine new with less than 300 miles. Drove the 4cyl & 6cyl and got the 6cyl since their wasn't that much difference in mileage. If I fill the tank and set the cruise at 55 got up to 41.1 mpg. Right front tire blew out as soon as I parked at work. Took it to Toyota, was told nothing they could do about it. (had 27,000 miles and just under 3 yrs old). Told me I must have hit something. I'm the only driver and I never hit anything. read out on radio disappears and comes back when you push in on screen. People complain they can't hear me when connected to blue tooth through radio. Heater takes a while to heat up compared to other new vehicles I've had over the years. I'm considering trading it off, it drives great but I'm just not that crazy about it in general. To date it has 34,000 miles on it 5 years later. I have a full size f-150 I drive to work everyday and anymore on the weekends I grab it's keys rather than the toyota. The trucks a 99 with 211,000 miles. Oh i replaced all the junk (my opinion) Michelins with Uniroyal Tiger Paws 70k mile tires. The rides the same and had great experience with a previous vehicle with these tires.
2008 Toyota CamryVisitor, Keyport, NJ, January 26, 2012 07:17The "Check Engine Light" came on to find out an oxygen-fuel sensor went bad. The car is a 2008 Camry with 20,850 miles on it. I took it to Freehold DCH Toyota and the charged me $600+ dollars for 1 hr worth of time. At less than 21,000 miles the repair should have been free, but $600?? That is a legalized mugging. Also have a 2008 FJ and the drivers arm rest has cracked. Taking it in today to see if its covered.
2008 Toyota CamryVisitor, Orlando, FL, November 20, 2011 08:29I owned a 2007 Toyota Tacoma, which was the best truck, I have ever owned. When my wife wanted us to get a family car to save on gas and money, I thought buying a Camry would be a nice change. Boy, was I wrong. I miss my Tacoma to say the least. Anyway, I digress. We purchased a used 2008 Camry with 25,000 miles in Aug. of 2008. Within the first week we had to take it back to the dealer to fix a warble in the brake rotors and have the pad's replaced. We thought this was the worst of our nightmares, not so. After a few weeks of driving, we noticed that the fuel economy was only about 19 miles per gallon with highway/city driving. So I did a standard tune up, myself, changed the spark plugs, air filters, oil change, checked the plug wires, and so forth. When pulling the spark plugs, I found that the plugs were gapped so far apart, that I am surprised the engine even ran. Also, the plugs were oxidized with some sort of white crystal like material. The bells should have gone off in my head at the time. I replaced the spark plugs with the OEM recommendation and gapped them correctly at .043. This seemed to raise the gas mileage by about three miles to the gallon. Not much improvement in my book, but it met the standard for city driving for the Camry. Then at 38000 miles, we started hearing this rattling upon acceleration from underneath the vehicle. I climbed underneath to see if anything came loose, and I could not find anything. So I took it to the Toyota Dealership. They informed me that this was noted in a Service Bulletin. I thought "Great!" this should be fixed for free. Then the news came that if I had brought it in before 36000 miles it would have been free. Now they were going to charge me almost $400 just for the part then labor on top of that. What a joke, they must have been crazy. A few months later, my wife pulled on the Sun Visor to use the mirror and the whole thing broke off, leaving just the metal arm lever. I tried to fix it, but the plastic visor just kept breaking apart. Well, I finally got it fixed with aluminum straps that I wrapped around the outside of the visor under the cloth. This held it in place good. Then just recently back in Aug. of 2011, the driver's side visor broke off. I fixed it the same way. In Nov. 2011, our windshield got a chip in it one day. There was just a small chip. The next day it had spread into major cracks that spread across the windshield over to the drivers viewing area. The next thing that has happened is with the brakes. In March of 2011, I replaced the front brakes, because they were half warn down. The back brakes were the same, half warn down. Now, the rear brakes are completely warn down to the metal and grooving the rotors. What is up with Toyota using cheap parts. I am only going to buy American from now on. I am done with the Japanese crap that is being put out now. Give me something strong and not build with plastic interiors.
2008 Toyota CamryVisitor, Mountain Lake, MN, August 28, 2011 16:33I have a 2008 Camery XLE and it has rust spots all over the car. It is really bad by the sunroof. I had a similar problem with my 2004. JHas anybody else had this problem?
2008 Toyota CamryVisitor, Hemet, CA, May 23, 2011 11:58I am unhappy with my 2009 camry se. I bought it new and have been sorry ever since. I could cry thinking about it, but it does not get the gas mileage it is supposed to, it is noisy inside, cheap interior parts, now the a/c has a leak in the hose which will be another $500+. Think the dealer would give me a deal? Ha, no way, I must be on drugs to bring up such a ridiculous idea. Tires have been replaced and time to do that again, I am so disappointed, I paid way too much for it because the dealer lied to me and the se cost almost as much as the xle and probably could have gotten the better model, can't remember the name. I sold my 2000 acura tl and am so sorry to have wasted over $20,000 when I loved my acura. It just had 150,000 on it so thought i would upgrade since i can't afford to have trouble on the road, but come to find out, it was barely broken in. It was a MUCH nicer car even tho 9 years older.
2008 Toyota CamryVisitor, Opelousas, LA, May 02, 2011 15:17I own a 2008 Camry SE, and I would NEVER purchase another one. While my car was under warranty, I had to have the seals around the windshield and sunroof replaced because they were improperly installed, and I had to have the CD player repaired. Recently, at 68,000 miles, I had to replace the water pump. Now at 70,000, my A/C is not working, and Toyota is telling me that the cost to repair it is $2900 ($2168 just for the compressor!). Considering Toyota's "reputation" and the cost of the car, I am disgusted by the problems I am having. I will NEVER purchase another Toyota!
2008 Toyota CamryVisitor, Tulare, CA, December 31, 2010 12:29I purchased a 2008 Toyota Camary brand new, this car a piece of crap. The first month I had it the car wouldn't stop. Toyota looked at it and said its fine. It almost killed me. The visors break easily. There cheap. My bearing went out before 60,000 miles. I don't recommend Toyota.
2008 Toyota Camryjoelburke26, New Castle, PA, December 18, 2010 19:26so far the best car i've ever cleaned or worked on.this is my next car hands down.Master
2008 Toyota CamryMarjoy, Easley, SC, November 22, 2010 11:48My first Toyota Camry was a 1997, and I loved it. We bought a 2008 Camry, and that was a BIG mistake. The water pump went out at 61,000 miles and destroyed the head gasket, thus destroying the engine. I have read other reviews on 2007 Camrys that did the same thing. If this is a common occurrence, why does Toyota not have to compensate the owners? I can assure you, this is our last Camry, and I will no longer recommend a Camry to anyone. The quality has really gone down hillRookie
2008 Toyota CamryKrisd, Marion, IL, November 22, 2010 11:48I have a 2008 Camry 4cyl, I love it its a great car. I have a question though, it is coming up on 20,000 miles and the maintenance required light has come on, Does anybody know what the Maintenance consist of at 20,000 miles?Rookie
2008 Toyota CamryBushman, West Des Moines, IA, January 23, 2010 10:39This is the second Camry of this style I own. I've been very pleased with it. The only gripe I have is that it is slow to get moving. Also when it gets cold it shakes a bit like a manual transmission does when the revs are too low...this is an automatic transmission however.Enthusiast

Kan. lawmakers reach school funding deal, end teacher due process
Updated On: Apr 06 2014 11:59:38 PM CDT
Kansas lawmakers have given final approval to a plan that would increase aid to poor school districts and eliminate tenure for public school teachers.
The House voted 63-57 on Sunday to approve a compromise bill drafted by Republicans in both legislative chambers.
The Senate earlier backed the bill in a 22-16 vote. It now goes to Republican Gov. Sam Brownback for consideration.
The plan is designed to comply with a Kansas Supreme Court order last month in a lawsuit filed by parents and four school districts in 2010 over education funding. The court directed lawmakers to boost aid to poor districts.
The plan does so, but conservative Senate Republicans insisted on eliminating tenure for public school teachers. The proposal brought dozens of red-shirted teachers to the Statehouse to protest.

That subjectivity is your truth. And the only way to know it is to be in total rest - as one is in sleep - and yet be totally aware, alert, and without any thoughts. This is samadhi, this is the ultimate state of dhyan - meditation. This is what Buddha means when he says: Quietly consider what is right and what is wrong.
Now, if you consider what is right, what is wrong, you miss. You are bound to start thinking, "What is right and what is wrong?" And what will you think about? You will start chewing over many thoughts that have been provided to you by the society. The society has taught you, "This is right and that is wrong," and you will start chewing them again. Maybe you will make some new combinations, you will color and paint and decorate them, but basically, essentially, they will be impositions from others. It is not your own experience. Hence Buddha can't mean thinking.
He says: meditate quietly. Be silent and see. And in that seeing you will know - without any logical process you will simply know: This is this. This is good and this is bad. Not that you have to decide it according to the Bible or the Koran or the Gita. If you have eyes you know where the wall is and where the door is. Do you have to think about it? Each time you go out of your room do you have to think again and again where the door is and where the wall is? You simply go out of the door without thinking at all, because you can see! But if you are blind, each time you will have to think again, "Where is the door?" You will have to grope for the door.
Thinking is a blind state, it is a groping in darkness. Meditation is a state of having eyes, you are capable of seeing. You simply see what is right and what is wrong. And when you see what is right and what is wrong you can't do the wrong, you can't go against the right.
A meditator naturally follows that which is good - not that he decides to follow it - and naturally avoids that which is bad. Not that he decides to avoid it; a meditator never takes any vows - there is no need. A man with eyes never takes the vow that "I will always enter from the door, go out from the door. I promise you, God, that I will never try to enter from the wall. Believe me, I am a man of my word, I will keep it, although I know there will be many temptations." If somebody is saying that, you will laugh. "What nonsense he is talking! What temptations?" Have you ever been tempted by the wall to get in and out through it? No such temptation is there.
When one can see clearly, good results. It is so natural, it is so spontaneous, you can't say that you have decided it. You can't say that you have used your will. You can't even say that this is your act. All that you can say is that this is how things are happening, not that you are doing them, you are only allowing them to happen. Then life has such a relaxed joy, because no tension follows it, no strain. The achieving mind is no longer there, hence there is never any frustration.

December 19, 2014
(AP) The United States is poised to announce a significant donation of food aid to North Korea this week, the first concrete accomplishment after months of behind-the-scenes diplomatic contacts between the two wartime enemies. An agreement by North Korea to suspend its controversial uranium enrichment program will likely follow within days.
A broad outline of the emerging agreement has been made known to The Associated Press by people close to the negotiations.
Discussions have been taking place since summer. They have already yielded agreements by North Korea to suspend nuclear and ballistic missile testing and readmit international nuclear inspectors expelled in 2009, according to the people, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of sensitivity of the negotiations.

Cosmic Radiance makes me feel sexy and confident. It definitely isn't for those who like light or powdery fragrances but if you like ultra feminine and a bold essence then give it a try :) I'm wearing it right now, it has an amazing scent. The bottle is also very nice and femme classique! FragranceX is the best place to buy this as it is very expensive everywhere else, thanks for the great purchase!

In March of 2003, Saddam's Minister of Information was everybody's favorite inadvertent comedian. Sporting a kicky black beret and delightfully bombastic lexicon, Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf appeared on TV daily to predict American failure and deny the Baghdad invasion--sometimes even as U.S. tanks appeared behind him. "He's great," President George W. Bush said of Sahaf, admitting that he occasionally interrupted meetings to watch Sahaf's briefings. "Someone accused us of hiring him and putting him there. He was a classic."
Sahaf became the subject of T-shirts, mugs, adoring websites, a pop song, and an action figure. Besides adding levity to news cycles otherwise filled with fuzzy green explosions, Sahaf represented everything that made Iraq's invasion seem not quite like a real war. Wars are serious, and this guy was adorable. Even if you opposed the Iraq invasion, you had to admit it's hard to respect a government whose official mouthpiece told a reporter, "Shock and awe? It seems that we are the awe on them. They are suffering from the shock and awe, okay?"
"My information was correct, but my interpretations were not," he explained. But in retrospect, the opposite seems truer.
Sahaf stuck to his post--and his story--until the day before Baghdad fell. Then he surrendered to American forces, was interrogated and promptly released, suggesting a lowly spot on the Ba'ath party totem pole. He surfaced in Abu Dhabi in July of 2003, gave a couple of interviews, and settled into obscurity.
"My information was correct, but my interpretations were not," he explained.
But in retrospect, the opposite seems truer. Sahaf had bad information, sure, but several of his more ludicrous predictions have since come true--some in the ways he meant, and, more chillingly, some in ways no one (else) could have foreseen.
Sahaf's nickname, "Baghdad Bob," now denotes someone who confidently declares what everyone else can see is false--someone so wrong, it's funny. But when read beside the eventual cost of America's decade in Iraq, "Baghdad Bob" isn't so funny anymore.
"The crook Rumsfeld said yesterday that they are hunting mass destruction weapons in Baghdad and Tikrit, and yesterday I replied to that cheap lie."
"I assure you that those villains will recognize, will discover in appropriate time in the future how stupid they are and how they are pretending things which have never taken place."
As a 2012 CIA study concluded definitively, Saddam Hussein didn't have weapons of mass destruction. Nor did Iraq have 18 mobile laboratories for making anthrax and botulism, as Secretary of State Colin Powell claimed before the United Nations in February 2003, nor had Saddam Hussein recently tried to buy large quantities of uranium from Africa, as President Bush asserted in his 2003 State of the Union address. A decade of war was based on things that had never taken place.
"They are trying to say that the Iraqi is easy to capture, in order to deceive the world that it is a picnic... One day, they [will] start facing bitter facts."
"The decisive battle is throughout Iraq. They do not know in what mud they are wading."
In 2002, Kenneth Adelman, a member of the Pentagon's Defense Policy Board, wrote in the Washington Post, "I believe demolishing Hussein's military power and liberating Iraq would be a cakewalk. Let me give simple, responsible reasons: (1) It was a cakewalk last time; (2) they've become much weaker; (3) we've become much stronger; and (4) now we're playing for keeps."
Wars are serious, and this guy was adorable.
Adelman was right that beating Hussein's military power would be easy-ish, though it took longer than George Bush Sr.'s 100-hour incursion in 1991. What Adelman didn't realize--and Sahaf did--was that occupation, not invasion, would be the bitter pill. Result: not a picnic.

I got a sample from sephora. It definitely did not mattify. I just used this on my nose, chin, and area beside my nose. I have been breaking out horribly in these areas and I think the primer must be the culprit, ESP. After reading some other reviews. I do have acne prone skin but I have been getting large pimples in areas I normally would not. I am sorry I tried this.
I got the sample from Sephora and have tried it a few times. It is a lotion consistency but I find that it goes on very sticky and doesn't spread very well over my sunscreen, nor does it help my foundation glide on better. It also makes my skin sting. I very much prefer both the smashbox primer and the hard candy primer over this.
I received the sample size from sephora - I'm glad I didn't purchase a full tube. It was ok. Nothing to rave about, it did what it was supposed to do but I wouldn't buy again due to price.
Well, I really want to love this product coz I've seen so many good reviews of it. However, I have to say, it is not for my combination skin, especially in summer time. It may help my makeup sit better right after I apply , but soon it becomes oil and all foundation colors start to fade, and eventually I get shiny forehead in about 2 hours. I think it is probably better for dry/very dry skin type and very fair skin tone.
This foundation primer breaks me out in a horrible way.
this primer breaks me out like nothing else!!!! I have used it twice and now its gone!!! thank god I did not buy it!!!! I got it as a points perk at sephora!!! horrrrrrrible do not try it if you have acne prone skin or even combo normal/oily

I like that this feels like a lotion and sinks in. It doesn't break me out in pimples (I'm pretty acne prone). Yet, like all primers for me, this doesn't really tend to do what a primer is "supposed" to do. It doesn't make my foundation go on easier, doesn't help hide imperfections, doesn't help combat my oily areas, and doesn't keep my foundation on or last longer through the day. In fact I found that with this primer my oily areas were worse on the days that I used this primer. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone unless you want a placebo effect.

The lady at Saks 5th Ave gave me a free sample of this because I went in to buy the Tinted Moisturizer and I refused to buy the primer she was trying to sell me. Ironically enough, I wanted to buy the mineral powder to put on top of my TM, but she said I didn't need that. OH well, her loss on a sale because I waltzed right over to Sephora and bought what I really wanted. :)
So back to the primer, I have normal/dry skin. I am biased because I don't get the point of primer. I always put a moisturizer on my face as soon as I step out of the shower before any make up. So, I don't get the point of putting a primer on over top of a moisturizer and then putting on a TM. Maybe this will come in handy in the winter when I use a full coverage foundation.
I didn't notice that this did anything at all. I still don't see the point of a primer and frankly, I feel like it is a waste of time to bother with it. It didn't break me out though, so that is cool. I mean I don't really have anything bad to say about it because I didn't pay for it, but had I actually spent money on it, I'd be peeved.
If it works for you, cool, but I won't waste time or money on it. I think I'm going to give mine to a friend who likes primers.

This would regularly be out of my price range, but I managed to pick up the 1 oz tube for a very cheap price. I don't like the packaging because a lot of product gets out and the top gets icky, and I didn't find that this product made my foundation go on any smoother or last any longer. The worst part about this is that it gives me a zit every time I wear it. The last time I applied it onto my chin and a small portion of my cheeks, I awoke the next morning to four pimples on the former region.
I got this a few years ago when I was browsing for primer. I have some dry and oily spots on my face, so makeup looks flaky on me. tthis primer doesn't do a great job in blending the two. In fact, I don't really notice much of a difference. The oily parts are still oily, and the dry parts are still dry.
The primer is milky white, but it applies clear. it's suppose to be unscented, but it smells a little bit like plastic to me (but nothing over powering). After applying a thin layer, my skin feels a little tight (kinda like when a face mask dries). But then, when I put my makeup on over it, I actually think it's worst than if I just had moisturiser on. This is not a good product for me.
For this price, I would chose another product. I also have the tinted moisturizer, which I like a little better.

In 1956, when he recorded "I Walk the Line" for Sun Records, Johnny Cash became an overnight sensation. But it was his many years of singing as if he knew from personal experience all of humankind's strengths and failings—as if he had both committed murder and been accepted into God's light—that made him a favorite of liberals and conservatives, MTV and the Grand Ole Opry, Gary Gilmore and Billy Graham. A tall piece of timber, Cash was often likened to John Wayne, to whom he otherwise bore only the slightest resemblance. The biggest difference was that Wayne never really lived up to (and probably only dimly comprehended) the democratic ideals he personified on screen—which were more likely the ideals of the directors he worked with anyway. Cash took on a greater variety of roles as a singer than Wayne did as an actor, and both he and the characters he gave voice to admitted their weaknesses. From song to song he was a cowboy or a white outcast who rode with Indians, a family man or a drifter, a believer in eternal life or a condemned murderer with no tomorrows anywhere. His credibility as all of these owed as much to the moral effort involved in endlessly putting himself in others' shoes as it did to his professional savvy in putting a song across.
Waking to the radio last September 12 and hearing that Cash had died in the middle of the night, I remembered thinking about Cash just days after the attacks two years earlier, while watching a nationally televised prayer service attended by the President and the First Lady and featuring a performance by the mezzo-soprano Denyce Graves. It should have been moving—but as I listened to a mannered black diva render an old spiritual as if it were a European art song, it was impossible not to think that the occasion called for a more homegrown performance style. If the point was to rally Americans to draw on their inner resources, it would have been a comfort to hear from Johnny Cash, who stood for what Christopher Wren, his first biographer, called "the dignity of the commonplace and the redeeming grace of hard knocks."
I thought of Cash frequently in the weeks and months that followed 9/11, as music written in response to the attacks began to be released. With few exceptions, rock's singer-songwriters lapsed into their habitual pattern of dissent, and country singers beat the drums for retaliation. All of it reminded me of that period in the late 1960s, before public opinion solidified against the Vietnam War, when we heard "The Ballad of the Green Berets" and "I Ain't Marchin' Anymore"—neither side giving any ground—and when Cash became a voice of reason. The lyrics to "I Walk the Line" pledge sexual fidelity regardless of temptation; but whenever Cash performed this song in the early 1970s (as he surely must have at every show), he might just as well have been describing his principled balancing act in opposing our military policy in Southeast Asia while continuing to voice support for our troops. "Singing in Vietnam Talking Blues," "What Is Truth?," and "The Man in Black"—Cash's antiwar songs—weren't among his best numbers, and they didn't really say anything that countless rockers and folkies hadn't said already. They were powerful by virtue of who sang them: not a hippie leading a chant at Woodstock but a country-music icon who was risking the sort of ire unleashed last year against Natalie Maines, of the Dixie Chicks, when she told a British audience she was embarrassed that George W. Bush was a fellow Texan.
In 1969 The New York Times ran a Sunday magazine article on Cash titled "First Angry Man of Country Singers"—a reference not just to Cash's activism in behalf of prisoners and Indians but also to his having generally made life miserable for those closest to him, a few years earlier, when he was taking huge daily doses of amphetamines and barbiturates. If suicidal habits and self-destructive behavior are the primary definition of "angry," Hank Williams (for one) was years ahead of Cash. But unless you count Woody Guthrie—which the Nashville establishment does not, even though it should—Cash was country music's first protest singer. "Singing in Vietnam Talking Blues" was released as a single in May of 1971, and it isn't much of an exaggeration to say that his performance of the song on television early that year marked a turning point: If Johnny Cash wasn't buying this war, why should anybody?
That performance was on Cash's own TV show, which aired on ABC from 1969 to 1971. According to his own accounts, Cash fought only two battles with his network bosses, who eventually gave in to him on both. One disagreement arose from his desire to introduce a hymn by declaring his own faith in Jesus. The other was over an appearance by Pete Seeger, whom Cash defended as "a good American as I've ever met." One can imagine the same thing being said of Cash.
In 1975, when an interviewer for Penthouse asked him if he was a political radical, he replied, "I'm just tryin' to be a good Christian"—a good Christian, but not a professional one, despite his many songs about Jesus and his tours as a member of his friend Billy Graham's Crusades. He was a Christian who didn't cast stones, a patriot who didn't play the flag card.

The Air Force and other Department of Defense agencies are aggressively pursuing plug-in electric vehicles and vehicle-to-grid infrastructure technologies, DOD leaders told industry representatives at an Electric Vehicle Industry Day here Aug. 23.
"We are here to tell you three things," said Terry A. Yonkers, the assistant secretary of the Air Force for installations, environment and logistics. "We are serious about this; we are going to be the catalyst for the executive branch; and it is time to stop talking and get down to doing it."
PEVs and vehicle-to-grid technology allow installations that generate power from alternative sources to use the power to charge electric vehicles and also use these same vehicles as storage devices. The vehicles reduce reliance on fossil fuels and store power for use either at peak loads (when connected to the grid) or as stand-alone sources of power if the commercial grid fails.
The PEV and vehicle-to-grid technology is two-way. The grid both charges the vehicles and draws from them when called on when not in use.
Within weeks, the Air Force is scheduled to announce the selection of a base where these technologies will be installed and evaluated for wider application.
"Our first concern is making sure (the installation) gets the right vehicles for the jobs they need to do," said Dr. Kevin Geiss, the deputy assistant secretary of the Air Force for energy, office of the assistant secretary of the Air Force for installations, environment and logistics.
"We have a global mission, and it's often the work that gets done at installations that allows us to fulfill this mission," Geiss said. "The (vehicle) fleet supports Airmen doing this work at the installations. They must have the right tools."
Geiss said much of the test base analysis will focus on how PEVs and vehicle-to-grid technology tie in to installation master plans.
"An installation is a system; we need to look at additional capabilities these vehicles can bring," he said.
Installations could theoretically be self-supporting and also generate income through providing power to the commercial grid.
The industry day was an opportunity for DOD leaders to outline for industry representatives why PEV and vehicle-to-grid technologies are being pursued with such vigor, the basic cost parameters and the desired outcomes.

Very friendly staff.
It is a bit noisy when you open the window.
The location was centric to every other place worth checking out in Isabela.
No small fridge in the hotel rooms, though the villas allegedly did have fridges. A lot of the structure needs repairs. The air conditioning was leaking. The access to the beach is a bit dangerous at night since it goes through a road with very little illumination. The beach has a very steep incline into the water, surrounded by rocks. The restaurant is only open for breakfast. The ice machine appears to be out of order.
Here's why:
We're not the seller

Metalline Commences 4000 Meter Drilling Program In Africa With JV Partner AngloGold Ashanti
COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho, Aug. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Metalline Mining Company (NYSE Amex: MMG) is extremely pleased to announce the start of a 4000m diamond drilling program in August on its Ndjole and Mevang Exploration licenses in Gabon, Central Africa. The drilling program will be conducted under the direction of Joint Venture partner AngloGold Ashanti. The Ndjole and Mevang permits cover rocks from two adjacent sedimentary basins which comprise of a sequence of deformed sedimentary and volcano-sedimentary rocks that are early Proterozoic in age. Three prospective zones for gold exist within these licenses; the La Mboumi, Ebel, and Mianga prospects. Details and an update on the project and the exploration areas are available on the web site at www.metallinemining.com/gabon.html.
This initial drilling program is a follow-up on three large soil grids, each in excess of 10km x 5km in size and which comprised of over 2500 samples, which targeted areas with known mineralization and favorable geology. Results from these grids were then followed up with 4 infill soil grids and targeted geological mapping aimed at better defining the anomalous zones. In a testament to Metalline's team in Gabon, a total of over 13,000 samples have been taken in steep terrain and dense jungle since the start of the year. Three main coherent gold anomalies above 50ppb over 5km in length and up to 1.5km wide and several smaller anomalous zones up to 2km in length and up to 1km wide have been identified. Background gold values in the region are less than 5ppb and results above 20ppb are considered anomalous. Over 25% of the results received to date are above 30 ppb with peak values in excess of 5000ppb in the soils. The anomalies appear to have strong structural controls - concentrating along mapped or inferred lithological contacts, structural breaks, and fold hinges. There is also a strong spatial relationship of the gold anomalies to a thick graphitic lithological unit in the area which is thought to represent an ideal lithological trap for mineralizing fluids. Initial prospecting in these anomalous zones has identified a number of gold-arsenopyrite bearing quartz veins, many of which run between 2 g/t to 5 g/t gold.
A man-portable diamond drill from E-Global Drilling recently arrived into the country and has been transported to site, with drilling expected is to commence in the first week of August. A 4000m drilling program composed of 4 drill lines with a combined total of 20 holes to 200m depth is currently planned.

-Fixed things, made it look pretty for iOS 7, and fixed more things.
-Please leave a review if you like it :) [and email me if something broke!]
For those who like to read:
* Total user interface overhaul. iOS 7 and 8 look and feel, better margins, and some dynamic type use
* If a document is offline only, there's no archiving—only deleting. (Clears up some confusion that occurred)
* You can now turn off word counting, in case you find it distracting. Check it out in settings area.
* When you type, the app goes into full screen mode automatically. You can now dismiss the keyboard by tapping on the white bar, or drag your finger down to get rid of the keyboard and read in full screen mode.
* You can now view word count in full screen mode (the title of the bar will change temporarily)
* Conflict resolution is now defaulted to ON, and can be turned off. Makes syncing faster and easier.
* Added the text (Keep) to the document you plan on keeping when manually managing conflicts
* Made it easier to rename a file by making the (i) button always visible on the document list
* Fixed issue where email window couldn't be cancelled
* Added pull to refresh for syncing
* Temporarily removed TextExpander support, because it just wasn't working anymore. I'll keep researching this.
* Are you still reading this? Awesome! Seriously, you should leave a 5 star review and be a total rockstar today.

Wood chips, sugar & hazelnuts
It was recently the 50th birthday of that favourite chocolate spread we sometimes convince ourselves is ok to eat between two piece of bread. Nutella.
What a lot of people don't realise is that Nutella is what it is because they couldn't afford to make it the way they wanted to. Originally Nutella was a pure chocolate spread, but during the post WW2 era, a time of heavy rationing in Italy, they bulked up the ingredients with hazelnuts. They did this because hazelnuts were plentiful in the local area and much cheaper than cocoa per kilogram. The presence of mind to turn to the woodchips, in this case hazelnuts, and remarket the brand was very clever indeed. The branding was adapted to talk up the nut credentials and make people believe it was actually a hazelnut spread.
In fact it only has 13% hazelnuts and a whopping 52% sugar by volume – ironically about the same amount as the white label on the jar. While I'll leave the moral discussion on the marketing of Nutella for another blog post, the question it poses for all of us is this:
How do we turn necessary cost cuts or lack of availability of inputs into brand advantage?

Great post Steve.
I think this phenomenon is very much in effect with crowdfunding.
People use crowdfunding as they don't have the upfront capital required to get the product to market.
But the very act of crowdfunding changes the business from being an old-fashioned buyer-seller relationship to a collaborative movement, in which the buyers become evangelists and even designers of the product, resulting in a better product and larger sales volumes than would've otherwise been possible.

Grant Giving Program
October 27, 2014 - 12:00pm
Excellence in Education 2014 fall grant cycle is closed. Please check back in August, 2015.
The Grant Giving Program is funded by Skiing for Schools, Dining for Schools, Golfing for Schools, Home Tour and Endowment Fund interest, as well as by corporate and individual donations. Grant requests from teachers are reviewed annually, through a competitive, selective application process. Grant monies support programs that are specifically designed for students: to promote their interest in learning, to give them hands-on learning experiences and to encourage quality academic performance. Students in every school within the District have benefited from these grants.
The Foundation continually seeks to balance our grant giving in three ways: funding at all grade levels; funding at all school sites; and funding for all academic disciplines.
Please click here for the 2014 grant criteria and guidelines. The basic selection criteria are:
- The degree of curriculum enhancement in an area of demonstrated need
- The degree of the project / program that directly engages students
- The longevity of the project / program without requiring additional funds
- The number of youth directly / indirectly involved; and,
- How can the project / program measure its success through objective or subjective means.
Please click here for the 2014 grant timeline and deadlines.
Beginning in the academic year 1991 - 1992, seven grants were awarded for a total of $7,500. During the 2013-2014 academic year, the Foundation funded over $300,000 in grants and educator awards. Over the past 25 years, the Foundation has awarded over $2,700,000 in grants to the classrooms and programs of TTUSD.
