Out of the zillions of facial cleansers, gels, creams, soaps, whatevers I own, I think I use Noxzema most often. I've been using it for a very long time...probably at lest 12 years. It's a good de-greaser for my oily skin, and there's nothing better for removing makeup.
I prefer the jar to the pump...the stuff in the pump has a more liquid texture, and doesn't seem to work as well. continued >>
I love the way this makes my skin tingle after using. However, it doesn't get all the makeup off of my skin. So I guess the only time I'll really use the rest of the tub, I have is when my skin is already fairly clean; and I want to feel that tingle. I'd much rather use a cleanser that is more gentle and gets my skin super clean. I'll use it up; but I don't think I'll buy it again.
I've gone through the full spectrum of products, but Noxzema plus moisturizers is the best for my skin. It cleans comfortably and seems to tighten and firm up my skin tone. It seems to work best when I massage onto skin extremely gently as opposed to more harshly rubbing.

I started using Noxema when I was 12, and used it for several years with great results. After awhile, I got bored and started using other face cleansers in my attempt to be a "grown-up" girl. Well, I'm 19 now and just got back from college. The day after I got back home, I had this urge to go out and buy some more of my own standby, and I was thrilled that I did. A lot of people hate the smell, but I love it; it's very fresh and earthy. But the thing I love the most about it, aside from the way it makes my skin look, is digging out the cream from the pot and putting it on my face. It feels like fingerpainting! I know that for a lot of people, myself included, Noxema was their first real cleanser, and it might not be a bad idea to go back to it and give it a try, especially in the summer. It's nice and cooling, and helps on sunburn, as my grandmother has always told me and I can personally attest to. ;)

Still after all this time I still love Noxema the best. Great as a facial mask too - dissolves into my skin in a matter of 10 minutes and makes my skin so soft. And this does not clog my pores. I have a least 2 jars on hand at all times!
I've been washing my face with this for 12 years. I prefer it in the pot as opposed to the pump. I "paint" it on with an old makeup brush because I don't like to stick my fingers in it. That makes it fun and it works great for me. Great smell, cooling feeling. It's a classic.
I have a hard time understanding why anyone thinks this is oily.It has always left my skin clean with no oily or greasy residue.
I've been using it since I was 11 yrs old.And it never breaks me out.
It has a euclyptus smell,which I find rather refreshing.It will cool your skin down if you are feeling tired and hot.It also works magic on sunburns.
If you are having problems with it being oily make sure you are not using the version that contains moisturizers,it can and does leave an oil slick behind.
But the original Noxzema is the best skin cleanser on the market.Stops and prevents breakouts.
This is the first cleanser I have ever used that had not dry out my face, which is weird because I have a really oily tzone. Other cleanser dried out my nose. I dont know why though, because my nose is oily. This isnt soapy, which I love. It makes washing it off easier,quicker, and doesnt leave any residue. I didnt give this 5 lippies because even though i love it, I'm not sure it does anything for zits. It sure makes my skin feel refreshed and squeaky clean though!
I have a love-hate relationship with this product. This is one of the ones where you get all aggravated at it, stop using it, then find yourself going back to it when you get the urge. LOL
I have very oily skin, and this seems to take care of that, but sometimes it just won't rinse clean, which should be evidenced by the buildup it leaves on my sink. Still, I love the scent, the consistency and the feel of it on my skin.
Good God! I cant beleive that they still make this stuff. its just too harsh for facial skin. Totally useless.

Maui (Long Exposures) | Jeff Seltzer
I recently returned from Maui where I tried to branch out a bit from my usual photography style. I brought along a great travel tripod from MeFoto, my trusty Fuji X-Pro1 with 60mm, 35mm, and 18mm lenses, and a relatively inexpensive cable release. I also brought a 10-stop ND filter. I took shots during sunset, dusk, and moonlight.
To help with exposure, I downloaded a great iPhone app called LongTime (just search for it) that helps calculate the proper exposure considering an ND filter – the way it works is that you (1) choose the filter being used; (2) choose the metered exposure without the attached filter; then (3) the app tells you what the exposure time will be with the filter attached.
So, for example, if you meter a scene without the filter that shows 1/15 shutter speed, you just tell the app you are using a 10-stop ND filter, dial-in 1/15 and it tells you that the shutter speed for a proper exposure with the 10-stop filter is 1m. Pretty slick.
For sure, the most difficult part of the photography sessions was dealing with all the sand on the beach while adjusting tripod, changing lenses (wish I had the 18-55 zoom), and taking the ND filter on and off. Add to this the fact that I really don't know much about proper landscape composition, along with vacationers walking in front of your camera without a clue…well, it was challenging…..

Macro with the fuji x-pro 1 ? | Just another photoblog
I'm not a "flower" guy. Really not. If I love mountain, nature, trees, green fields, I really don't care about the flowers. Ok, it's here and there, bringing an interesting touch of color, but that's it. I've never been either a "macro" guy. Simply because it's not the kind of photos I like to take. So you can imagine my disappointment when I had to visit an "arboretum". "Being dragged into" is more close from what happened. Anyway. If I had to go, better take a camera with me, which was the x-pro 1 with the 35mm and the 18mm. Traveling light, not really motivated and you probably know what I'm talking about. If you don't like the place where you are, you'll find most of the scenes boring, and you won't even consider pulling your cam out of its bag. It's with this kind of thoughts that I arrived in a quite nice and neat park, showing a billion of varieties of trees, vegetables, flowers, plants, grass, bonsais, etc, etc. It's when the first comment about how nice was the [insert a Latin-botanic plant name here] came, that I started to play with the x-pro just to keep my hands away from some innocent leaf. I realized that The macro mode was never switched on before, and that "flowers" would be an interesting motionless subject to give it a try (Did I already mention that I'm really NOT a "macro" guy ?). First, switching to macro mode will automatically activated the EVF. I'm not that used to the EVF and I've learned at the same time how to cope with the slight lag you can have during movement. Hopefully, the wind was quite low that day and the flowers were barely dancing. But the EVF gives also the interesting possibility to reduce drastically the size of the AF spot (AF button + wheel). This helps a lot, and is probably something I'll try in other situations…..

Studio Lighting: Scaramouche Ice cream | George Greenlee
A friend of mine recently launched an Artisan Ice Cream company and it is really taking off for him at the moment. No doubt the hot weather helps, but the real attractions are the way the ice cream is made, from scratch with full cream jersey milk and 100% natural ingredients, and the flavours: Thyme and Honey, Ras Al Hanout, Vervain to mention just three. I then there are the chocolate and ginger ice cream cakes, man they are to die for. He is putting together his website and advertising and asked me to take product shots. We planned out two mornings for shooting at the Scaramouche parlour as it was not practical to shoot in my small studio. Ice cream has two problems. The first is from a photographic perspective it is not visually exciting. To avoid bland images you need to use lighting that emphasises shape and texture while adding some styling that does not detract from the core product. The second is that it melts, and in 30+ degrees it melts fast. So you don't have much time to mess about with lighting. I decided on a simple one light set up as shown below. The soft box creates a large light source relative to the size of the product and so minimises specular highlights. By putting it slightly behind and above the product I can get enough direction on the light to pick out the texture of the ice cream. The reflectors allow me fill in shadows as required……

The Fuji, The Filters and the Tripod | Dave Kai Piper
This is a short blog about Lee Filters, 3 Legged Thing and Fuji, and how these companies changed the way I shoot. I run a company called Ideas & Images. We provide both images and ideas to who ever wishes or wants them. Mostly we work within the Fashion world, the slow world of the landscape photographer seemed so far away…….
A while ago, I had a lovely e-mail from a lovely company who make Filters.
Lee Filters popped down to see me and left me with a set of filters specifically designed for CSC cameras. The Seven5 System filters are smaller than the normal 100mm system. The Filter Holder is designed for the compact system cameras and can hold the Lee Seven5 75x90mm filters. Lee also have a range of adapters for all the Fuji & Zeiss lenses. (The Zeiss pictured below is 52mm where as the 18 -55 lens is 58mm. Most of the lenses have different filter sizes). Being a more from the fashion world, I had NEVER used a filter in my life that was a not a screw on style ND, a Polariser or generic camera filter. Seeing how they worked and how they could be used to shoot fashion would be fun (more on that here). Aside from filters and fashion for a moment though. I wanted to explain how 3 Legged thing and Lee Filters changed the way I use the Fuji. I have documented already how the Fuji changed what I shoot. This is the Landscape version of that story……

My Workflow for Working with Fuji X-Trans Files in Aperture |
Thomas Fitzgerald
A little while ago Apple finally added support for the Fuji X-Trans series of cameras into Aperture. With their non-bayer sensor design I had previously been skeptical that it would ever happen, but as an owner of a Fuji XE-1 I was delighted that it did. The quality of Aperture's conversion was a little difficult to quantify at first. On the one hand it seems to render detail and colour much better than other converters, particularly Lightroom, and it doesn't suffer from the fractal pattern issue that Lightroom conversions seem to suffer from in fine detail. On the other hand the control of moire is not great, and you can get some pretty bad patterns and colour noise depending on the source material. Since it came out, I've been going back and forward on whether or not I prefer it to Lightroom….

Making the move from a DSLR to the Fuji X pro system | Nick Lukey
I see lots of questions regarding moving from a DSLR to the Fuji X pro system, whilst I have moved fully into the Fuji camp and have been extremly happy with my choice, many will be somewhat disappointed with the system. The Fuji Xpro 1 is a visual delight, and engineered to a really high standard, the image delivery is incredible, colour accuracy is superb. The recent firmware upgrades are a welcome addition, (these really should have been implemented a long time ago). Just having the ability to quickly change focus area on the thumbpad is joyous. I usually see the grumbles about autofocus speed to be the main gripe, and one that leads folk to stay with the DSLR. However if you persevere and learn how to use the camera, learn how to overcome its focus issues, you will be so pleased with the image results. Once focus is found its totally bang on. I have always loved Fuji for their approach to applying their knowledge gained in film development, and applying this to their digital camera systems. The jpegs are faultless, I looked at raw files and found no real gains to be had by using raw mode, this applies only to my thinking and I am not wishing to create a raw/jpeg debate. It suits my workflow. I remain totally in love with the system, but sometimes get quite infuriated at Fuji seemingly lack of understanding when it comes to camera ergonomics. Why produce a lovely little handgrip, that leaves you no access to the battery/card chamber, go figure!! Generally speaking the niggles I have with this little beauty are forgiven when I see the results from the Xtrans sensor printed as a 40×30 print…..

VSCO Film vs Fujifilm Digital | Stephen Ip
I've been using VSCO Film 02 for a week now and so far I like the results of the images I processed using the presets. Only time will tell whether or not I grow tired of the look the presets produce. The nice thing about the film pack and accompanying toolkits, however, is that they make it easy to dial back on "the look". The adjustments bundled into the film pack and two toolkits for Lightroom each have various versions which let me fine tune my edits quickly and easily. After a week, one of the biggest benefits I've noticed is that the presets speed up the editing process while allowing me to maintain a high level of consistency from image to image. True, I could have saved my money and created presets myself that gave me the look I was after. But sometimes, it's worth the investment to let someone else do part of the work for you, especially when they do it as well as VSCO has done here. Here's a set of images I shot yesterday and edited using the Fuji Superia 100 preset. For comparison, I also included the JPEGs processed by the Fujifilm X-Pro1 using the built in Astia film simulation mode. (For each set of images, the RAW files edited using VSCO Film are on top while the out of camera JPEGs are on the bottom.) ….

X-Pro1 Using Custom Settings | For RAW Shooters and Film Fanatics |
Adam J Piper
Custom settings can be an extension of the film simulations, adding another layer to your jpgs, or they can be set up to give you the best preview of your RAW files, enabling you to make better exposure decisions. I show you how to set them up, use them effectively and some of my favourite settings for your Fuji X cameras….

The X100s and the Lee Seven5 System | David Cleland
I am a massive fan of long exposure photography and the only issue I have ever faced with my X100/X100s was the challenge of capturing long exposure photographs during the day light hours. I tried a few 49mm variable filters with little or no success and because the X100s system is all about simplicity the idea of struggling with step-up or step-down adaptors to attach an ND filter just didn't make sense. To this end I found the X100s was my main everyday camera but I had to pack another system if I was planning long exposure captures. Welcome the Lee Seven5 Micro System. When it comes to filters Lee are the gold standard and their recently released Seven5 micro filter system now includes an option for Fujifilm's X100 and X100s cameras. I should also make it clear at this point the Lee Seven5 micro system isn't just for the X100s and I plan to employ it with the X-Pro1 with various lenses……

Mixed Lighting & the X-Pro | Dave Kai Piper
A little blog about shooting Mixed light set ups with the Fuji X-Pro
It seems to be that most people first looked at the Fuji X -Series cameras as street style cameras or reportage cameras. At least this might of been how they were first marketed. It was quickly very evident that the camera system was more than capable for much more. A fashion photographers dream is a quick, simple, stripped down camera that packs a punch. Super sharp and super punchy. Shooting natural light is a lot of fun with these cameras as it does let you travel with smaller kit bags and encourages freedom and movement. Being able to use the "photographers eye" to work with natural light can be super rewarding.
For my work, I love to create a mix of the two. As much as I love the lighting styles of people like Joey L and Damien Lovegrove. I am trying to work out what my lighting style still is. Maybe one day I might work it out !! The Fuji works great in the studio, on location and a mix of the two. Which is what I like to to.. Using speed lights, mixing them with naturally created light and additive lighting styles is just so much fun. Playing about with light can be very rewarding. When syncing the X-Pro, you have a number of options. It is great having the back up Sync port for a cable, but I use the Pocketwizard triggers. I do find that keeping the shutter around 1/60th of a second works well compared to the 1/125th that most people would be used to with a DSLR. Also.. when in the studio or using strobe lighting, I tend to go for the 18-55 zoom lens for some reason over the faster primes. I think this is the idea that if I don't need a fast lens I might as well have the OS lens or the chance to zoom. It would be nice to have the X-Pro shoot using some kind of tethering to Lightroom or Capture one though, maybe some day !! The other thing that would be nice, which I am sure they will change for the next iteration of the X-Pro is to have the screen show the exposure rather than balance the LCD and only leave you to gauge exposure using the +/- meter. Trying to balance out all your tones can be hard, and shooting with colour filter or grad filters is not much fun either. Maybe also a dedicated X- Sync mode would be nice.. Kinda something like Pentax have. I am a big fan of the Pentax shooting modes…..

A fashion blogger, gay husbands, etc.
The 200th installment of HIMYM unfolded from the Mother's point of view.
Only eight episodes left, and last night gives us reason to be a little sad about that.
From this week's episode.
The Slap Bet gets ... really romantic.
One of the show's best running gags returns.
So, the Mother. What does everybody think?
Episodes like this are why we keep on watching.
A spouse wants to move because of a dream job, while the other wants to stay to continue the career path they are on.
Entitled "How Your Mother Met Me," of course.
Once upon a time we all went out to get our drink on,
When who should walk in, but a girl with sweater tight and pink on.
What is to be thought of last night's rhyming episode?
The show's creators wrote this episode, which is disappointing, because it's the worst of the season.
It'll be called How I Met Your Dad.
Bryan Cranston returns as tyrannical architect Hammond Druthers.
Is more of the Mother enough to end this show's final-season cold streak?
Play Vulture's Quote Quiz.
CBS is in talks for a spinoff.
When the wedding-weekend concept was first announced, we wondered how HIMYM would handle holiday episodes.

Ice Prince is not showing any signs of slowing down at all. Not long after dropping heavy hit Aboki & More, he returns with 2 more singles, VIP & Gimme Dat.
One first listen, VIP sounds eerily similar to Aboki. If I didn't see the name, I would've thought it was a remix sorta. Gimme Dat on the other hand brings a different vibe. It features Burna Boy, Yung L & Olamide, and has some serious hit potential. Both track got ChopStix on deck.
What do you think of the singles?
Check on em.

Update, March 31: Schedules permitting, my colleague Spencer Kornhaber, Ross Douthat of the New York Times, and I will be recapping episodes of Game of Thrones as the season progresses.
King's Landing, Winterfell, the Wall, Pentos... Vaes Dothrak, the Eyrie, the Twins... Dragonstone, Pyke, Harrenhal, Qarth...
A typically ambitious television series might see fit to introduce a significant new character every few episodes. By contrast, Game of Thrones, HBO's magisterial adaptation of George R. R. Martin's fantasy novel series A Song of Ice and Fire, periodically introduces entire cities. The show's first season featured, by my count, 21 principal characters along with dozens of subsidiary ones. And while a few were subtracted by the end of Season Two (stabbed, gored, beheaded, drenched in molten gold, etc.), many more were added.
Season Three, which premieres Sunday at 9 p.m. ET/PT, continues this relentless expansion. In the first four episodes (which are all I've seen), the mesmerizing mechanisms of the show's title sequence will wheel out the slave city of Astapor and the castle of Riverrun, and nearly a dozen new cast members will be introduced. (According to HBO, the season will feature a total of 257 named characters.) Indeed, Game of Thrones is approaching a laboratory-pure experiment in the amount of televisual information the human brain can process without sustaining permanent damage.

(This is probably the place to note that if you have not watched the first two seasons of the show, it would be unwise to leap directly into the third—akin, perhaps, to showing up for a graduate seminar in quantum physics on one's first day of college. Be sensible: Start with Season One and take pleasure in watching the epic unfold.)
When we left Westeros at the end of Season Two, the land was in upheaval. Winterfell had been burned and the Stark children (Robb, Arya, Bran, Sansa, Rickon, Jon Snow) were scattered across the Seven Kingdoms and beyond. Their enemies, the Lannisters (Tyrion, Cersei, Tywin, the murderous boy-king Joffrey) retained an uneasy hold on King's Landing after rebuffing an attack by Stannis Baratheon, but the Northern rebellion led by Robb remained a looming threat. Farther north still, the White Walkers and their wights were shambling ominously en masse. To the East, Daenerys and her dragons had escaped Qarth intact. And who knows what became of Theon Greyjoy, the Stark betrayer torn between nature and nurture?
That last question will be answered, if somewhat elliptically, early in Season Three, with the belated appearance of a dastardly bastard (bastardly dastard?) who will be all too familiar to readers of the books. Also introduced will be king of the wildlings Mance Rayder (played by the great Ciaran Hinds) and his right hand, Tormund; Catelyn Stark's ineffectual brother and commanding uncle; a pair of new travelling companions for Bran; a handful of noble brigands; and the elder lady of the House Tyrell, played by Dame Diana Rigg, who proves she hasn't lost a step since The Avengers (not that one, this one) and her turn as Greatest Bond Girl of All Time. Did I leave anyone out? Doubtless so, but they'll arrive nonetheless.

Shiceka's death a loss to society: ANCYLComment on this story
Former local government minister Sicelo Shiceka's death was a loss to society and the ANC, the ANC Youth League said in a statement on Tuesday.
"The ANCYL is saddened by the passing of (comrade) Shiceka who has served the ANC and Government as a cadre of the movement. Cde Shiceka has served selflessly at all times in his role both in Gauteng and at National level.
"The ANCYL is saddened by his passing as it is a loss both for society and the ANC," said ANCYL spokeswoman Magdalene Moonsamy.
The league also conveyed condolences to his family and friends.
Shiceka died in St Mary's private hospital in Mthatha, in the Eastern Cape, on Monday morning, following a long illness.
Zuma removed him as a minister in October after Public Protector Thuli Madonsela found he had racked up over R1 million in travel costs for himself, his staff and friends, in violation of the executive ethics code.
This included a trip to Switzerland to see a girlfriend jailed on drug-related charges.
He continued serving the ANC as an MP, but had been on sick leave since February 2011. - Sapa

Jacobs also said safeguard quotas would undermine the value of joining the WTO for Vietnam.
"The U.S. has never tabled it and Vietnam could never accept it," she said. "For Vietnam, apparel exports are a more significant proportion of their trade [than in China] and they need to bring in currency."
Vietnam needs to pass a few more hurdles before it can join the WTO, including finishing up bilateral talks with the U.S. on the subject and completing multilateral negotiations within the WTO. Congress also has to extend the vital designation of Permanent Normal Trade Relations to the country. Vietnam and Canada completed bilateral talks last week.
Bob Zane, senior vice president at Liz Claiborne Inc., said if Vietnam is going to concede to some restrictions on exports to the U.S. market, it should skip over antisurge protections such as safeguards and go right to an import agreement.
This would essentially bypass what happened last year, where Chinese imports to the U.S. surged, prompting the Bush administration to impose safeguard quotas, which caused uncertainty in the import community. The U.S. and China ultimately worked out a deal to regulate trade through 2008.
"What frightens me and my colleagues is that, if Vietnam subjects its industry to an antisurge mechanism similar to what the Chinese did, then we will probably see a repeat of the chaos that we saw in China," said Zane, who is also chairman of the USA-ITA. "Personally, I've had it with unpredictably. I don't like it. It's a lousy way of doing business."
There is no telling how much Vietnam's imports would increase if the country joined the WTO, though it lacks the resources to become another China.
However, Cass Johnson, president of the National Council of Textile Organizations, said Vietnam has shown it has the ability to flood the U.S. market. Apparel and textile imports from the country jumped to 827.4 million SME in 2003 from 32.7 million SME in 2001, even after being constrained by quotas during May of that year.
"It's very important for us to get an effective safeguard against Vietnam," Johnson said.
The importers' argument against safeguard quotas on Vietnam follows the same lines as did their case against restrictions on China: They won't bring business back to U.S. producers, but give it to other countries. U.S. textile groups, on the other hand, contend the restraints will help apparel production in Central America, a key market for American textile exports.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Q and A
By Francie Hartsog-Dolack
Posted: Wednesday, May. 19, 2010

Francie Hartsog Dolack, M.A., L.P.C. is a professional bridal counselor who helps brides sail through their special day before, during and after the main event. Here, Francie answers your most pressing questions about your wedding.

Dear Francie: I have been engaged for three months and already have a major problem. All my life, my mother has wanted me to wear her wedding dress on my big day. When I was a little girl, I couldn't wait. Even before I got engaged, I thought I wanted to wear it. But now that I am planning my wedding, I can't help but want my own dress! Don't get me wrong, my Mom's dress is really pretty, but it really isn't modern. I'm afraid my mom will be devastated when I tell her I want my own dress. Should I stick to my word and wear her dress, or should I tell her I want to buy my own?Deanna
April 2011Dear Deanna: I think it's time you sit down and have a heart to heart with your mom. Your wedding day is a very important event in your life, and you have every right to wear the dress of your choice. Although your mother may be a little hurt, once she knows how you feel I'm sure she will be okay with the idea. Invite her to go with you dress shopping and take her advice into consideration when choosing your dress. Also, you may want to ask if you can wear a favorite pair of her earrings or other jewelry so she will feel that you are wearing something that belongs to her. Talk to her right away, the longer you wait the harder it will be.
Dear Francie: Three years ago my sister got married and I was her maid of honor. I was going through a divorce, and it was a very stressful time for me. I did everything I could to be supportive including helping to pay for things. During that time, my sister-in-law and I got very close. She helped me organize a lot of things and was very supportive. My sister never thanked me for anything I did, which hurt my feelings but I let it go.Now I am engaged, and I have asked my sister-in-law to be my maid of honor. She has been great and has been very helpful. The problem is, my sister and my mother are furious with me. They don't want to be involved in the wedding even though I have asked them numerous times. I am not sure what to do at this point. Do I keep trying to reach out to them, or do I just go about planning without them?Brittany
Wedding Date: December 2010Dear Brittany: I'm sorry your mother and sister are not willing to participate in your wedding. Have you tried to sit down and talk to them? Perhaps you could invite them for coffee and have a conversation. You may say something like, "I love you both very much and want you to be involved in my wedding." If they mention your sister-in-law being maid of honor, you simply say, "I chose her because we are close, and she helped me so much with your wedding I knew she would be a great maid of honor to me." If your sister and mother continue to be angry, there isn't anything you can do about it. You have the right to choose your maid of honor, and it sounds like you've chosen the right one. I would not continue asking them to be involved. Be polite and friendly and get on with planning your big day. Giving them more attention by begging them to be involved isn't going to help the situation. Good luck!
Dear Francie: I am getting married in two months, and I have a very embarrassing problem. When I get nervous, I break out in huge hives on my neck and chest. Last semester I had to give a speech in one of my college classes, and I was humiliated when I broke out in hives. My wedding dress is strapless, so there is no covering up this problem. What causes this and is there anything I can do?
Wedding Date: July 2010

Commonwealth of Massachusetts
A Proclamation
His Excellency Governor Deval L. Patrick
Whereas The Massachusetts National Guard, formally established on December 13, 1636 as the Massachusetts Bay Colonial Militia, is best known for its long and distinguished history as the nation's first National Guard and serves as the oldest component of the armed services of the United States; and
Whereas The revolutionary war began on April 19, 1775 when units of the Massachusetts militia engaged British troops at Lexington, Concord and during the retreat to Boston; and
Whereas In 1775, new regiments of the Massachusetts Army were created from the militia to form a total of 37, which later became the basis of the United States Army; and
Whereas The Massachusetts National Guard played an integral role in the formation of our nation and contributes to its reputation as the greatest military power; and
Whereas Four of the oldest units in the United States Army continue to serve in the Massachusetts Army National Guard today, including the 181st Infantry Regiment, 182nd Cavalry Regiment, the 101st Field Artillery Regiment and the 101st Engineer Battalion; and
Whereas The Massachusetts National Guard has served in the major wars of our nation's history, including the Revolutionary War, Civil War, World Wars, The Vietnam and Korean Wars, Cold War, and since the events of September 11, 2001, nearly all units have served in Iraq or Afghanistan; and
Whereas The 8,200 men and women of the Massachusetts National Guard embody the citizen-soldier concept and serve not only our country but our community through their local work, including protecting life and property during many natural disasters and relief efforts,
Now, Therefore, I, Deval L. Patrick, Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, do hereby proclaim December 13, 2011, to be
375th Anniversary of the Massachusetts National Guard
And urge all the citizens of the Commonwealth to take cognizance of this event and participate fittingly in its observance.
Given at the Executive Chamber in Boston, this thirteenth day of December, in the year two thousand and eleven, and of the Independence of the United States of America, the two hundred and thirty-fifth.
By His Excellency
Deval L. Patrick
Governor of the Commonwealth
William Francis Galvin

Under performing Sapphire AMD HD RADEON 7870
I havea question I would like to ask all of you. I recently upgraded my gfx card from:
Sapphire HD 7750 > Sapphire HD 7870.
The benchmarking for each card shows that the 7870 DOUBLES in performance and benchmarking from the 7750. note that I used to run games with the 7750 @ 1280 res whereas with the 7870 I run them at 1920 x 1080 res.
However my question is that I havent noticed any drastic increase in gaming performance? Windows index says my card is, current at 7.9 - the highest, yet I cant run games like Hitman Absolution at full detail because there is fps drop. Minecraft doesnt run at far without fps dropping below 60. However I have noticed that games like league of legends are running at 60-80 fps with everything turned to max settings and at 1920 x 1080. The gfx card is also overclocked... but I have turned it off.
So my question is this:
Do i not notice the change in perfomance because Im at a higher resolution which is pushing the gfx card to its limit?
Do i have a bad card?
Does my psu not give steady/ enough power to deliver consistant aps on the 12v rail to allow my gfx card, and my cpu, to run in high performance mode?
The last question is a worry for me. I have the corsair CX600W PSU.
But I am running 3 HDs, x2 SSD x1 HDD.
Running x6 Fans, x2 are high pressure
Running 16GB RAM @1333mhz
Running 8 core AMD FX 8150
And finally HD 7870.
The temperature at "full load" hit 45-50 degrees and do not climb higher than that, and those temps are when the room temp is pretty high. Do you think the PSU cant supply the gfx card with enough juice causing it to under perform?
The CX600 delivers 40A @ max load on the 12v rail. I know my PSU can deliver enough power to the card... HOWEVER I have a high performance CPU, fans, and 16gb ram plus a lot of HDDs so am not sure whether the PSU is actually stretching the limits. I had a corsair GS700, which was bad, so if the psu is not enough I will look for 800W.
Sorry for turning this into a PSU thread, but I just cant figure out why my gfx card is under performing when it shouldnt... unless i am under the illusion it isnt, and just running games on high detail @ 1920 x 1080 is a huge deal for most mid-top end gfx card.
thank you.

Yes, 1920 by 1080 is stressful gaming wise and you are not on a top end card, try it at the same resolution you used the 7750 on?
FPS above 30fps is fine, dipping below 60 is nothing.
You have to contend with server lag and non-optimized programming code that will vary greatly game to game, and more graphics involved game to game, so that is why some run so much better than others, too.
Everquest II is an example of poorly optimized coded MMO, if you want to see video card strained, complained about for years and sold a lot of video card upgrades!
I am running 3d games on my 7950 and using two other monitors at the same time, all 1080p's... (2 landscape, 1 portrait).
Just yesterday, I had Marvel Heroes (online only) drop to 9 FPS down from 60, and I started playing it like a RTS for grins, restarted game and it was back to 60, it didn't properly recover from a lag spike with a lot of people in an area, though it had been handling it fine, just minutes before, bugs bugs bugs.

UK and destination wedding photographer
Your wedding day will be beautiful, I already know this. There will be a story to tell, emotions to capture and I don't need to direct anything for this to happen. I will just be there, capturing your story as it happens. You won't need to pretend to put make up on that you applied hours ago, or pose for a cake cutting. Plan your day around what you want to do, and I will be there to capture it. I want my images to take you right back to that moment in time, helping you relive your wedding day for years to come, no fuss, no gimmicks, simply beautiful images of your wedding day, with a few pretty portraits thrown in for good measure!
Wedding coverage is £1200. This includes full day wedding coverage, an online gallery for viewing your images, and digital files with full print release. Fine art albums and wall art options are also available. I am based in South Yorkshire, but offer wedding coverage both nationally and worldwide. I love to travel, so mainland UK travel is included, and the only addition to the collections for international weddings is travel and accommodation costs.
So if you like the sound of what I do, please don't hesitate to get in touch. I look forward to our paths crossing in the future.

I'm sure you'll be as relieved as I to learn Our Rulers' plans for protecting us from the latest crime-wave. It seems "criminals are smuggling an estimated $30 billion in U.S. currency into Mexico each year from the United States." Yes. Those dead bodies you see everywhere, all that blood and gore, the looted homes, the kidnapped children — at least it's easy to follow the trail of these desperadoes. So we may well question why Leviathan needs "a portable device that identifies specific vapors given off by U.S. paper money" to foil these psychos. Oh, wait: how could we be so stupid? Hundreds of millions more of our taxes in grants to the scientists developing this gizmo as well as to its manufacturer: that's why the bureaucratic regime "needs" it.
Unfortunately, this invention is still in development. So until it hits the marketplace, you're on your own when it comes to protecting yourself. You may want to also ask with Mark Luedtke, who sent me this story, "How does one smuggle money?" A corollary to that is, "Why should we have to?"
"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right it is their duty, to throw off such government…"9:19 am on August 13, 2014 Email Becky Akers

NYPD Hunts Ivy League Lawyer After Young Girlfriend Found Dead
The NYPD is searching for a 30-year-old lawyer, educated on a partial scholarship at Ivy-league Columbia University, in connection with the death of his live-in girlfriend.
Jason Bohn apparently called 911 just before 7:30 pm Tuesday evening, telling the operator he had "hit" his girlfriend -- and maybe someone should check on her.
27-year-old Danielle Thomas was discovered with blunt trauma to the head in the couple's apartment at 28-25 33rd Street in Astoria, Queens. Medics declared her dead at the scene.
Neighbors in the building told detectives Bohn had a history of beating Danielle Thomas and that police had responded to the couple's apartment in the past. Bohn and Thomas had only lived in the Astoria apartment since April.
"I just heard he was beating her and there was noise and police had been called," said Anna, a neighbor who lives two apartments away from the couple. "It's really sad that something like this had to happen to her. She should have left him."
Apparently, Thomas did try to leave him on June 7th, when she reportedly went to the 114th precinct seeking an order of protection from her boyfriend. In the police report, officers heard Bohn scream at her from the other end of a cell phone call, "It's war. I'll dedicate my life to hunting you down like a dog in the street."
A cashier at the Rite Aid pharmacy across the street told PIX 11 detectives came in the store Tuesday night, telling a manager that Bohn had bought ice there the day of Thomas' death.
When PIX 11 did some research on Jason Bohn's background, we discovered an interview he gave to a Jewish charity—JCCA—in 2009. In it, Bohn talked about his troubled childhood in the Bronx, where he was born. "My father was addicted to drugs and physically abusive," Bohn recalled. "My mother was addicted to success and abandoned me for a new life and family."
As a 13-year-old, Bohn told JCCA that he became a ward of New York State, living at the Pleasantville Cottage School in Westchester County. There, he got physically violent with other children. But counselors there took note that he was academically very bright.
Bohn said he got scholarship money to attend Columbia University, but he later complained on a blog that he had $200,000 in student loans. He was once interviewed by the New York Times about the $33 an hour he earned as a paralegal, certainly not enough to re-pay his loans in a timely fashion.
Bohn received some schooling in Florida and was living there, at some point, with Danielle Thomas. He may have had some scrapes with the law, in his younger years, in Virginia Beach and Florida.
A source told PIX 11 that Bohn called the 114th Precinct in Astoria between Tuesday night and Wednesday morning to "apologize" for what happened.
Detectives were hoping he would turn himself in for questioning. On Wednesday evening, they were still actively hunting for him.
The homicide was very upsetting to some of the young women who live in the Astoria apartment building, many of them young, urban professionals melding in with the old-timers on 33rd Street who shop on nearby 30th Avenue. "The only thing I know is I didn't sleep last night because of what happened," said one neighbor we met. "It made me sick to my stomach."Copyright © 2014, The Baltimore Sun

Survivor - Maureen Bardusk and husband Joe Bardusk (Husband and Wife)
Maureen and Joe began their membership at Gilda's Club Chicago in December 2010 following Maureen's breast cancer diagnosis in the preceding October. An artist who was accustomed to spending the majority of her time at the couple's home in Galena, Maureen canceled an artistic residency in Costa Rica to receive treatment at Northwestern. Receiving treatment also meant spending more time in the city and adjusting to spending more time with with husband Joe, an architect in Chicago, who was living primarily in their Chicago condo. Maureen sought membership at Gilda's Club Chicago in order to participate in community (hers being in Galena) and to help maintain her physical and emotional balance. Joe wasn't sure what he expected from becoming a member and later found his niche at the club along with befriending a member or two along the way.
Survivors: Pam Pozucek and Melissa Quintas (Mother and Daughter)Pam`Pozucek, was first was diagnosed in 1997. She had radiation and lumpectomy on the right side. Luckily, it was caught very early. She would go for treatment every 3 then 6 months and then eventually once a year. In 2009, she was diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ, both times, not as serious as some and was medium aggression. They couldn't radiate again so she had a mastectomy. She wishes she would have done both sides as she didn't know how great reconstruction can be. She didn't have to take her lymph nodes. She feels like what she had is nothing like what her daughter, Melissa went through. "I'm so lucky. I would have taken it 10 times over. As any mother can imagine.... I couldn't even talk about it."
Melissa Pozucek, daughter of Pam, was diagnosed in Jan. 2011. Melissa always maintained a positive attitude. She had Her2 and it was in her lymph nodes. She underwent one and a half years of chemo and double mastectomy with radiation. She completed her chemo treatment in June 2012. Melissa's cancer was fast agression. Both Melissa and Pam saw the same doctor, Dr. Kevin Bethke. As a result, Melissa has changed her diet and lifestyle completely. She is now vegan.
