Investors have backed calls for
But fund managers encouraged incoming BHP chief executive
Arnhem Investment Management executive chairman George Clapham said returning capital to shareholders or a share buyback could improve shareholder returns in the short term but it should not be at the expense of developing and maintaining high value assets.
"You can buy back stock if it looks cheap but effectively the real value in these companies is in their reserves and making sure they are replaced," Mr Clapham said. "They are going to have to continue to invest in finding or extending long life assets. Mining is not a capital-light industry."
"They can't throw it all at shareholders. If there are no other better alternatives, returning cash to shareholders can occur but ultimately these companies have to extend their competitive advantage."
His comments come after BlackRock natural resources chief investment officer Evy Hambro encouraged BHP and Rio to accept lower prices for underperforming assets or operations where they no longer see a long-term strategic advantage, arguing a full price was not needed to improve shareholder returns.
Mr Hambro told The Australian Financial Review this week that returning funds to shareholders or launching a buyback was still "value creative" despite selling assets at a discount.
Shifts in strategy
Since being appointed earlier this year, both Mr Mackenzie and Mr Walsh, have separately pledged to cut costs, sell non-core mines and run existing operations more efficiently to improve shareholder returns.
The shift in strategy follows growing fears in the market that China's efforts to cool its property market and the wave of extra iron ore production coming on in the second half of the year will put pressure on the iron ore spot price in the medium term. The spot iron ore price is trading at $US134.6 a tonne, well above its $US87 a tonne lows in September 2012, according to The Steel Index.
Pengana Capital Global Resources Fund senior fund manager and analyst Tim Schroeders agreed with Mr Hambro's comments, but also reinforced that it was just as important to ensure the long-term quality of the group's operations.
"Broadly I agree [with Hambro] but it's a question of weighing up what you can do with that money and the opportunities before you," said Mr Schroeders. "The focus on returning money to shareholders and boosting the share price is great in the short term, but is it really positioning the business for the longer term especially given the uncertainty in funding?"
Deutsche Bank has estimated BHP could reap approximately $US25 billion from the sale of multiple assets and Rio could pocket around $US10 billion through a divestment process.
Potential assets include BHP's New Mexico coal mines and the Gregory Crinum mine in Queensland, while Rio could possibly sell its Northparkes copper-gold mine in NSW and its Argyle diamond assets.
Sales are expected to improve the balance sheets of both companies while also increasing the chances of larger dividends and a higher return on assets.
BHP shares closed 89¢ higher on Friday at $32.59 a share, while Rio shares finished $1.24 higher at $55.92 a share.

When is Spring Coming?
Late March is one of the most un-romantic times of the year. I get angry at how long it takes for the weather to get better. This year has been no different: the cold, dreary, rainy-ness of late winter hangs on. The seasons affect my dating mood. Because there is no known scientific unit small enough to measure my attention span, I'm happy that seasons change here in the Northeast. Some seasons are more fun, some are more romantic, and some just require me being single. Fall is my favorite dating season, and Spring is my least favorite. Below are the dating seasons ranked from worst to best:
4. Spring
Most people find this to be a romantic time of year. With pheromones and pollen clogging up our nostrils, how can we not want to find a mate? However, a closer look at what's going on reveals the awesome power of nature. Plants and animals try to spread their seed to as many mates as possible. The pollen in the air is aimed at more than one flower. Flowers are some of the most horny, polygamous organisms out there. This is what happens to me. That first warm week hits, the girls wear skirts and I'm suddenly out from under winter's gray shroud. This is the best time for girls who do not have confidence in their legs to wear skirts. That first week of warmth, I'm so desperate to see legs, I look at every pair of exposed legs with gusto until I finally get back to my overly-critical, picky self. With all the super cute girls in such great moods, it is tough to just stick to dating one girl.
3. Winter
Winter has its moments. The holidays are an amazing time to be with someone, party hopping, eating, exchanging gifts and selling out at the gigantic tree at Rockefeller plaza. Then there is New Year's, and it's always fun to have someone to kiss at New Year's. That Auld Lang Sine song makes me feel happy and miserable at the same time. But, after the holiday fanfare, I grow more and more depressed and angry. Some may say it would be nice to have someone at this point. I disagree. Part of the problem is that my two favorite sports, pro football and college basketball, are in full swing. I stay in, cook, watch TV, and don't want to deal with anyone. I look to achieve that perfect state of nothingness. This requires me being alone. It gets too cold, and I don't want to go outside, or be required to do anything.
2. Summer
Summer has good and bad qualities to it. There are romantic times in summer: late evenings with that really cool light on the horizon, crickets at night, cookouts, beaches, etc. But some of these things are double-edged swords. Places like cookouts and the beach leave open the possibility for drink your face off craziness—which can get muted if you are under the watchful eye of a girlfriend. Every 4th of July, my college buddies and I head to Dewey Beach, DE for a week of debauchery. The bars empty out into this place we refer to as The Circle of Death. It is a circle intended for cabs and cars, but at closing time it fills up with drunks from five surrounding bars. It is here that the destructive energy rivals that of a spiral galaxy. People pour into the circle and rotate randomly around the central black hole (represented by a mal-nourished palm tree in a concrete pot). One summer, a girl grabbed my friend and kissed him. She then fell into my arms where she kissed me and invited me back to her place. I managed to wreck that. But, this represents the romantic duality of summer: the bars by the calmness of the sea, emptying out into the raunchy circle of death. It's a confusing time for us all.
1. Fall
Not to rhyme this time, but Fall has it all. The changing leaves, the burning wood smell...and the cold is actually welcome. By this time, summer has worn me out. I'm ready to be with someone, experience the changing season, hit the Autumn markets, watch football. It has the perfect mix of relaxedness and craziness. My desire to be with someone in Fall could be traced back to my early years when I'd start liking someone around late September in school. I'd associate songs with her, and fruitlessly try to get her to date me. In fact, from 7th grade through mid-college, I compiled a whole list of girls who I began liking in the fall...

I'm always fascinated by innovative business ideas in the fashion and cosmetics industry, and a particularly brilliant one I've been watching is Birchbox.
For only $10 per month, Birchbox sends you a bright pink box every month with four or five high-end beauty product samples. When you sign up, you fill out a detailed beauty profile describing your skin tone, hair type and other parameters so the products you receive are things you can really use.
Founded by two Harvard MBAs who interned at places including Estee Lauder, Birchbox says their goal is to de-clutter the beauty industry. That's something I think we could all use.
There's still time to submit your income tax returns if you haven't already done so. This year, tax preparation companies such as H&R Block and software maker TurboTax are making it even easier for you by releasing apps that allow you to file your taxes from anywhere you have cell service.
The free H&R Block app gives you directions on preparing and filing your return, all from your iPhone, iPad or Android device. You can even photograph your W-2 to submit it with your return. If you get stuck, there is a quick link to the company's worry-free audit support.
TurboTax also has an app, and it uses what seems to be similar technology to get information from a photo you take of your W-2. The app is free, but to file federal and state forms through them will cost you at least $19.99. After you file, TurboTax has another app, MyTaxRefund, that tracks how close your refund is to being deposited in your account. And isn't that the best part of tax season?
Walton Foundation for Independence wants to challenge your concept of what makes art valuable, and how we perceive each others' abilities, through its Undercover Artists Show on April 12.
The fundraiser will display more than 100 pieces of art donated by local artists, community leaders and celebrities which will be sold at a silent auction beginning at 7 p.m. There's a catch – all artists' names will be concealed until after the bidding.
Tickets cost $50 and can be obtained by calling (706) 826-5809. Proceeds benefit Camp to Be Independent, the Walton Foundation's annual camp for individuals ages 8 to 21 with an acquired brain injury.
"It's a wonderful fundraiser for Camp To Be Independent since it shares the lesson that you can't judge a person for a perceived disability – you never know what wonderful abilities he or she may have," said foundation development officer Alice Salley.

... and you thought all you had to worry about was rain on the big day!
After months (may be even a year of planning), your big day is finally here. The band's confirmed, the flowers arrived and the weather looks like it's going to hold up. What's there to worry about?
Well, last week, for dozens of engaged couples ready to tie the knot, their location fell through at the last minute. Because of the government shutdown, national monuments that were supposed to serve as their wedding day backdrops were closed — leaving them venue-less. Imagine trying to reschedule your Yostemite wedding?
There was one couple who was able to reschedule their Grand Canyon ceremony in time, but not without a lot of stress. They told Today: "I don't know how much more can happen unless we get a flat tire on the way to the location. At this point, it really doesn't matter. We'd be happy getting married in a parking lot if we needed to."
So will these couples get their money back or get to reschedule their weddings?

Since this actually means that existing S III units will leapfrog Android 4.2, you can imagine that quite a few new goodies are coming our way. Unfortunately, Samsung doesn't really subscribe into all that changelogs-type-business, so there's no official list, though the good folks over at SamMobile have compiled a pretty extensive list of what they've found to be changed. Perhaps most important are the cosmetic changes – the UI has been updated, and now appropriate the Galaxy S4/Note 3 theme elements – and the addition of garbage collection with fstrim support. TRIM helps a great deal when aging devices (like the S III) are concerned, as these that suffer poor storage I/O performance after a while. In other words, expect some tangible performance boost with this update. Check out the full list below.
It's likely that only a few of you have already received the update prompt just yet, however. You could try to force an update check manually, by going into Settings > More > About Device > Software update > Update, but you'll probably have to wait a while. Moreover, if you're locked to a carrier, it will take even longer as your service providers needs to do some work as well. Either way, you can keep track of which countries/carriers have started receiving the new firmware with SamMobile's ingenious tool right below.

Body Contouring Scottsdale
Body contouring procedures refer to the group of surgeries that reshape areas of your body by removing excess skin, suctioning excess fat, or tightening lax muscles. Sometimes, one procedure can include all three components.
Body contouring procedures are often pursued by a wide variety of Arizonans, from those who have been successful with massive weight loss, to those who have stubborn areas of fatty deposits that don't respond to diet and exercise, to women who want their pre-maternity curves back. The results can be quite dramatic.
If you have been frustrated by an inability to attain the shape you desire, it is a good idea to consider a consultation with Scottsdale plastic surgeon Dr. Flint. The body contouring procedures she offers:

Lucky Rag Doll will make her fifth career start for
trainer Pat McBurney in Saturday's Grade 3 $100,000 Monmouth Oaks, her
first try against stakes company.
Lucky Rag Doll rides a two race win streak into Saturday's Monmouth Oaks, the Oldest Oaks in
North America. The first of her
current streak came on July 5, when sprinting six furlongs in a maiden
special weight event winning by 6 ¼ lengths. In her next outing on July
19, she traveled a mile and 70 yards in an optional
claiming race, rallying in the stretch after being blocked rounding the
far turn and claiming victory by three quarters of a length. She and a
field of seven other 3-year-old fillies will travel a mile and a
sixteenth on the dirt in the Monmouth Oaks, the
farthest distance to date for Lucky Rag Doll.
sprint race (July 5) was a big strong race and a big step forward,"
said McBurney. "We thought she might regress last time but (jockey) Joe
Bravo all along was saying 'she's got to go a mile,' and if you see her
she's a big, leggy filly and she looks like she would appreciate the
distance. Even though she had a troubled trip she reacted off of her big
maiden win and ran a nice race."
A daughter of Silver Train out of Here Comes Chelsie, Lucky Rag Doll will again be ridden by 13-time
Park leading jockey Joe Bravo, who has been
aboard for each of the filly's four career races. He has ridden her
successfully thus far, finishing in the money in every race, and
McBurney says that he will trust the veteran jockey
again with Saturday's race strategy.
broke and got squeezed leaving the gate last time so you'd hope that
she'll be a little closer to the pace," McBurney said, "but we're going
to just leave it in Joe's hands. You would think that if she was a
length off sprinters like she was (July 5) that she'll be able to stay
up close here."
the colors of BDL Stable, Donnely, and Phantom House, Lucky Rag Doll
will break from post position two in the Monmouth Oaks, which goes
as race 11 on Saturday's 12-race card.
Ladies Day comes to
Park this Saturday, where ladies will
receive free general admission to the clubhouse or grandstand if they
wear a fancy hat or fascinator. In addition, there will be a best hat
contest between 12-2 p.m., and the women with the best
hats will be invited into the winner's circle for the fifth race, where
the winner will be announced. There will also be $5 Skinnygirl drink
specials and hat vendors for Ladies Day Saturday.
Gates open for Ladies Day at 11:30, with the first race set to go off at 12:50.
This Sunday
Monmouth Park
will host Kortney's Challenge, a two mile fun run/walk. Proceeds from
Kortney's Challenge will go to the Kortney Rose Foundation, an
organization dedicated
to raising funds to support research and education related to the
treatment and cure of pediatric brain tumors.
The race will begin at 10:00 a.m. at the track's
Oceanport Avenue
entrance and will end two miles later in the Grandstand. Runners will
also receive free Grandstand parking and free Grandstand admission to
the park with registration to
Kortney's Challenge. Participants can register on race day in person
beginning at 8:30 a.m., or online at www.thekortneyrosefoundation.org.

TAMPA — After Justin Gray struggled in a 22-point loss to Tampa Prep three weeks ago, Berkeley Prep charged its senior guard to star on offense and defense in Friday's rematch.
He did both, all game and in the final seconds.
Gray's layup with 30 seconds left in overtime put the Buccaneers ahead for good, and his defensive stand late sealed a 68-66 home win on his senior night.
"What Justin did on both ends of the floor was remarkable," Berkeley Prep coach Bobby Reinhart said of Gray, who finished with 23 points, six rebounds, four blocks and two steals.
Gray's success started early in a battle of Hillsborough County's top two teams. The Texas Tech recruit's first quarter featured five points, a steal, two rebounds and two blocks. His second swat led to Jacob Mathis' layup that gave Berkeley Prep (22-2) a 20-8 lead.
But Tampa Prep (21-3) hung around and clawed back behind sophomore Juwan Durham. His jumper kicked off a 10-0 second-quarter run, which he capped by throwing down an alley-oop dunk after his only steal of the game.
Gray drained his only 3-pointer to start the fourth quarter and push Berkeley Prep's lead to 52-45 before Tampa Prep rallied again with four quick points by freshman guard Amari Goulbourne, who entered the night averaging 3.9 points per game but finished with a career-high 21.
"I thought Amari Goulbourne was amazing for them," Reinhart said.
Tampa Prep tied the game with 1:07 left in regulation on one of Taz Strauch's two 3-pointers. After Berkeley Prep senior Craig Bowman hit a free throw, Tampa Prep took a 59-58 lead, its first of the game, when Durham followed a spin move and dunk with 36 seconds left.
Bucs senior Marshall Holmes calmly sank 1 of 2 free throws with six seconds left to tie the game again, and the Terps missed a tough layup at the end of regulation that would have won the game.
Berkeley Prep took the early lead in overtime until Goulbourne drained a 3 from the corner with 43 seconds left that gave the Terrapins a 66-65 lead and set up Gray's heroics.
The Bucs opened up the middle for Gray on the next play, and he drove in for the go-ahead layup with 30 seconds left. Bowman added a late free throw, but Tampa Prep had one final hope with 1.4 seconds left.
Durham took an inbounds pass, and Bowman and Gray defended before he could get off a halfcourt prayer.
"We outlasted them," Reinhart said.
Bowman finished with 17 points for Berkeley Prep. Holmes, who was honored before the game for recently scoring his 1,000th career point, added 15 points.

UK Family Law
UK Family Law Questions Answered by Verified Experts
Hi when my son was 6 months old my ex took me to court saying i was stopping contact which i wasn't, anyway the courts saw this and we went on at my suggestion to go to mediation while there i told him i would be moving to London from Kent where my ex lives. ( i had to move cause i was living with my mother and she was moving i had no other family in kent at the time) anyway we decided he would see our son once a fortnight for the day anyway he never happy always complaining that i stopping contact still and looking at diary he only one that stopped it this year because of weather or car broken down and could see it heading back to court by things he was saying so i contacted a contact centre local to me and got the pick ups from there so its logged. overnights started about month and half ago and so far he had him twice overnight pick up 12 drop of 11 next day just till our son gets used to it he is now 3. i have imformed him times will go up but i wanna be sure he coping cause we tried nights when he was year and half and he freaked out. anyway instead of talking to me i got a court letter that he taking it back to court and my ex has told me since he wants friday to sunday which i think is too much for our son to cope with right now i am happy for hours to go up but think this is asking to much of our son to cope wit. he also wants court order cause he says that i keep stopping contact hence reason i took it to contact centre to prove he is having contact, he was meant to have overnights last weekend but didnt show up there, and he told lady at contact centre on phone he wasnt meant to have him but i have the dates written down and copied for him. the judge said at last court date i am to have his rota and give him dates so he had this lot since april. that was last dates on rota as he told me he getting new rota which he now saying he wont give me. and he told me he wants him end of this month but that weekend is my new sons first birthday so we having a little party at my inlaws who live in kent near by to him so i said that cant do overnight as ryan wants to be at party but how about i meet him at library at 8 in morning and pick up 12 so he still gets to see him to which he refused. i hate going back to court i have asked him to go back to mediation but he refused is there anything i can do and how will the court see this and how likely is he to get two nights now. i know he will have two nights in future and dont mind that but right now i really feel it would be too much on our 3 year old. he also wants my new partner to meet him half way down motorway to pick ryan up or pay for his travel, but i dont see why we should and he always having ago at us saying my other half and his family are not important in our sons life.
ok thanks can i ask that it stays at the contact centre for pick ups because i dont trust that he wont try and take it back again and i want proof he is having contact and when he doesn't come ect. i also heard of a Vexatious Litigant. the last court told him a court order wouldnt suit him as he was seeing his child and i wasnt stopping him. and that we ddint need to be back again this was the second time he had taken me back the next in august will be third it causes me so much stress and wondered if they would class him as Vexatious Litigant.

My dd is 13 months old and for the past month she's been going through a phase where she is very clingy and she's starting to drive me a little crazy. Basically she needs me to be right next to her at ALL times, literally if she is not physically right next to me she starts to cry and hurries over to cling to me. You would think the logical solution to this would be baby wearing, but then she gets all squirmy and bored unless we're going for a walk. She wants to be sitting on my lap while she plays or to be held at all times. She also wants me, not DP, she loves to have the three of us together and is always super happy when dp comes home from work, but then she still wants me to hold her, she often cries and pushes herself away from DP when I try to hand her off. I work 17 hours a week while DP stays home and while I'm gone DD is happy and fine, a little clingy with dp but not as much as with me, then when I come home she is even more needy, and as long as she knows I'm in the house she won't let DP hold her for more than a few minutes. I'm feeling like I can't get anything done & kind of over touched and like I'm seriously in need of some 'me' time, and DP is feeling kind of sad and also tired of having to do everything after she comes home from work while I just play with dd.
DD has always had a very laid back, chill & happy personality and she still does except for this. We are all about AP, but this is making me crazy! Should we just assume it's a phase and ride it out or are there steps we can take to make make this less intense?
Edit: I just realized there was another post about this and it made me feel a little better. Clearly this is normal! But I would still love it if anyone had ideas of how to lessen her separation anxiety.

R (1/3/2015) and DSD (16).
Mother of two spectacular girls, born mid-2010 and late 2012
oh i'm right there too now - baby girl just had her first birthday ten days ago or so and she's had a bunch of days now of being very clingy. it seems better today and i'm attributing that to tooth #8 finally popping out but she's still much clingier than she was a month ago. it's not super fun but of course there's something very sweet about it too, so i try to concentrate on that. ;) she's just so much more aware of everything so it makes sense she clings to mama more.
DS - planned born via 4/4/2011
Us too. My son is 11.5 months, and getting molars. He was so clingy and fussy and only wanted to be held by me, and only wanted to be nursing that I actually took him to see the Dr just to make sure it wasn't his ears or something. She also attributed it to molars coming up and told me that it could be a month or so of this. There are times when I just can't pick him up because I am making supper or something, and he seems to be ok with just holding my hand sometimes. He cries a little bit, but then holds my hand for a few minutes, then goes off to play again.
BTDT. DS is 17 months now, and in a BIG TIME daddy phase. If DH is around, DS wants nothing to do with me. Actually, I guess he's in more of an "anyone but Mom" phase - he'll reach for a grandparent, aunt, uncle, or friend before me. Will literally only reach for me if he wants to nurse. If it weren't such a relief I might get my feelings hurt!
But then, if it's just the two of us, it's the same as what you're describing, except with holding my finger. He will play with one hand and hold mine in the other, lead me around the house by my finger, and won't tolerate me trying to entertain myself on my phone or with a book, even if he doesn't want me directly interacting with him.
Kids, man!

Living and loving in ATX with DH (of 7 years) and DS (3.5)
Oh, I forgot to mention my one and only tip for dealing with it - it helps DS a lot if I give a running commentary on what he's doing. I think my voice offers some of the interaction and assurance that he's looking for by having me physically near him. So if I desperately need to keep him occupied for a minute, I can just talk non-stop to him, giving a play-by-play of what he's doing, and it buys me some time. Obviously it doesn't help if I need to do something on the phone or be out his sight, but it has helped me get laundry folded or get a sink full of dishes washed. HTH!

Hey everyone! So I was enjoying my Memorial Day off from work (didn't see that coming 'til a random glance at the schedule last week showed I was off! woop woop!) And as any good ABC affiliate employee does, I was watching Good Morning America on my day off (haha)... and saw this cool story on the creators of Benefit cosmetics. I was interested to hear that Jean & Jane Ford were just typical midwestern girls (ok, so they did some modeling in commercials)- who literally flipped a coin about what sort of business to develop and makeup won. Consequently, I had recently been sent a small kit of Benefit products to review- and was in the process of putting them on for pics for this blog when that story aired! :)
Here it is! The "Snow White and the Huntsman Rare Beauty Kit" form Benefit. If you're interested in picking it up, it's available for $45 on Sephora's website. In case you weren't aware, Snow White and the Huntsman debuts this Friday in theaters... and this kit claims to give you "the fairest look of the land". You get the following products...
- Benetint (.13 oz): Big fan of Benetint- and this is actually a pretty good size of the product! Still working on another small size of this that I already had, but it's good to have a backup. I totally see this as a "Snow White" product... just a few dots blended onto the cheeks gives great natural color, and it's nice on the lips too & because it's a stain, it looks SUPER natural. My tip- when using it on the cheeks, blend it in immediately... it dries kinda fast. (side note: I also love Cha Cha tint!! heads up coral lovers!)
- BAD Gal Lash (.3 oz): Pretty cool that you get a full size BAD Gal mascara. I've only ever tried the minis of this before... and it's a pretty good mascara for volume! It's one of those that I tend to not love a whole lot when I first start using it... but it tends to get better with time. Do you ever feel that way with mascaras? The brush is rather large, which can be hard to control at times, but I do appreciate the fact that it has a tapered tip. Overall this is a "B" grade mascara in my book.
- High Beam (.08 oz): Good things come in small packages! And the smallest thing in this kit is definitely one of the coolest. I love this stuff! It's something I'm considering purchasing full-size. It's the same format as Benetint & that whole family of products... only instead of being a total liquid... this is a somewhat creamy/liquidy highlight. It's the perfect pearly color that you can put on your cheekbones, browbone, bridge of nose, cupids bow (I did all of the above!)... and it's probably one of the best cream highlighting products I've tried! Not glittery- just the perfect pearly glow.
- the POREfessional (.75 oz): Another full sized product... which I have blogged about before. Check out that post for my thoughts. I'm not over the moon about this stuff, but the texture is pretty awesome. You can wear it under your makeup as a primer or over your makeup to touch-up areas where you feel your pores are especially visible. I'd like to hear from someone who feels they have super large pores as far as how well this works on them. One high point I've noticed as I've worn this more... my makeup tends to wear longer (I think) when I use this as a primer. It's not at all greasy, so I think that helps.
A closer look at the XXL brush on BAD Gal.
The bag that this comes in is INCREDIBLY cute.
You also get a little booklet showing you how to get the look...
In this pic I'm wearing Benetint on my cheeks and lips, and High Beam on my cheekbones, brow bones, bridge of nose, and cupid's bow. I was testing a different mascara in this video, so no Bad Gal, but I am wearing Porefessional under my makeup.
Overall, the highlights of this kit for me are Benetint & High Beam. I probably would be more likely to buy those individually than purchase this as a kit, given my prior knowledge about Bad Gal & Porefessional. However, when it comes to getting the "Snow White look"- I do think this kit is effective at giving you glowing skin & dark lashes. It might be a great gift for the Snow White enthusiast in your life, or if you are looking for a potential answer for a large pore problem & want to dip your toe in the world of Benefit's cream/liquid cheek products. Something I've learned after reviewing lots of products is that something that works (or doesn't work) for me, may not behave the same way for you. I think at $40, this kit is a good value & I'd be curious to hear what the rest of you think about it! :)
Daily Nuggets (Confessions Edition!)
- I was inspired to do a confessions-themed Daily Nuggets thanks to one of my new favorite blogs- Confessions of a 20 Something!
- Confession- I found it as I was researching what makeup products Carrie Underwood uses. I'm just slightly obsessed with her beauty routine.
- I made (I use that term loosely) some Tollhouse slice & bake type chocolate chip cookies... and ate one of the sections before baking.
- I watched at least an hour of some sort of Saved by the Bell Hawaii edition movie today.
- I slid about 2 or 3 feet on the hard wood floor section of Buffalo Wild Wings last night & nearly wiped out. Excuse: my heels had little to no traction. Then did the classic- look all over to see if anyone saw me thing. Awkwardness. At least I wasn't carrying a drink!
- I bought yet another hair-curling device. You'll see when I do another "What's New at the Drugstore" video this week.
- I will watch episodes of Real Housewives (of anywhere) multiple times. I'm a sucker for marathons.
- I created a new cocktail this weekend that involves White Zinfandel wine and lemonade. Quite refreshing!

Anna Karenina
"Anna is both terrible and wonderful and that's why I love her and that's why women over the decades have loved her," director Joe Wright has said of the anti-heroine at the center of his latest period picture. The notorious adulteress (played here by Keira Knightley) no doubt has compelled readers and audiences for well over a century, but what makes Wright's adaptation utterly unique is something critics are calling his brilliant gamble: He set much of the action in a crumbling old theater.
Girl on Fire, Alicia Keys
Inspired by motherhood — Alicia Keys had her son, Egypt, two years ago — the title track Girl on Fire is the working mom's gift to women everywhere striving to have it all. The celebratory mood of the R&B star's latest record will resonate for anyone who's conquered the vulnerability, insecurity and bouts of fear that come with multitasking and overachieving. Come for the empowering anthems, stay for the ballads.
The Layover: Paris, Anthony Bourdain
Travel Channel, Nov. 26, 9 p.m.
If this is as close as any of us will ever get to being in Paris with Anthony Bourdain, so be it. The new season of The Layover has the suave celebri-chef and his taste buds globetrotting to Chicago, Dublin, Philly, Sao Paolo, Taipei, Toronto and, this coming Monday, to the food snobbery capital of the world. Bourdain says No Reservation fans will appreciate the accessibility of this show: "It's faster, more democratic and more caffeinated than No Rez. But just as obnoxious."
Far From the Tree: Parents, Children and the Search for Identity, Andrew Solomon
Author Andrew Solomon interviewed 300 families for Far From the Tree, a fascinating exploration of parenthood, tolerance and love. He spoke to ordinary people thrust into extraordinary circumstances by their children: families coping with deafness, dwarfism, Down syndrome, autism, schizophrenia, multiple severe disabilities, children who are conceived in rape, who become criminals, who are transgender. It's the perfect holiday-season read; put things in perspective before you gripe about annoying in-laws. "Life is enriched by difficulty," Solomon writes. "Love is made more acute when it requires exertion."
Appearances Can Be Deceiving: The Dresses of Frida Kahlo exhibition, opens Nov. 22, Frida Kahlo Museum, Mexico City
Frida Kahlo's bold aesthetic has long inspired such iconic designers as Alexander McQueen and rock stars, like Gwen Stefani. Now that the Surrealist painter's vibrant blouses, ribbons and shawls are on display at the Frida Kahlo Museum, thanks to Vogue Mexico, we can all indulge in admiring her style. If you were the kind of little girl who could pass hours playing dress-up with grandma's glamorous wardrobe, this exhibition will kick the dust off those lovely, musty memories.

You're reviewing: 16" #18/613 Straight 11pcs Full Head Set Clip In Human Hair Extension [CRHSTE151L]
Our Remy Hair is best type of Clip in Hair Extensions available.out of the entire Human Hair category, remy hair gives the most natural appearance. It is the preferred choice for wigs and hairpieces as it has the following appealing benefits:
1. Last longer time without tangling
2. Stay healthy and strong even after washing
3. Able to color, curl and straighten
4. Able to use normal hair products to deal with
5. Look more natural and blends better in with your real hair
Apart from remy extensions, other hair extensions may be cheaper, but due to the different raw materials, it is much more difficult to style and color them. remy extensions would be the most natural looking in terms of extensions and can be the smartest choice.
Make a U part on your back head that spans from ear to ear. Snap open each clips on one of your wefts.
Place the clips along the line and snap shut. Make sure it's secure.
Add another weft following step 2. Continue to add wefts until the desired style is achieved.
Or you can add in wefts from the top (around the top of the ear) and work your way down.
Once the back is finished, you may use the single clip pieces to fill in the sides.
Keep your hair and scalp clean! When sweat and dirt build up your hair tangles. Use a good quality shampoo and conditioner. Detangle your hair first from the ends to the roots before shampooing. Wash your hair gentle in a downward motion (from the roots to the ends). When you're done rinse your hair thoroughly.Condition your hair after every wash. Dry your hair gently, don't rub it with a towel but move in a downward motion from roots to ends. Gently detangle your hair.
After you get your hair extensions it is best to wait 48 hours before you wash your hair.
It is better to avoid heat. Heat is your one of your hair's biggest enemy, the more you use it, the shorter your hair extensions will last. Be careful with the use of blow dryers, flat irons and curling irons. It is best to let your hair dry naturally.
DON'T sleep on wet hair. A good habit is to tie your hair together in a ponytail to prevent tangling as much as possible.
It is best to store the human hair in it's original container. However, you can store the hair in a plastic bag.To keep the desired curl pattern, you may want to set the hair on rollers that conform to the curl size you wish to maintain before storing in plastic.
In order to offer premium quality items, all the hair extensions will be shipped directly from our factories to http://au.hairextensionbuy.com/ first and then after careful checking, http://au.hairextensionbuy.com/ will ship the item out.

Kobe green.
Seriously....can the Starters play for the rest of the 4th QTR?
Green :happydanc:happydanc:happydanc
No matter the outcome, we have played well and hard against the best team in the West in their own building.
Also, LG33 has to watch the rest of the game having not predicted the loss in the second quarter. Hopefully, it's worth it.
I think Hansbrough is a better defender than Pendergraph. Then again, I've never seen Pendergraph play any real NBA minutes.
Very good game so far, minus the bs foul calls for them and no calls for us
Green's done a better job on Martin than I expected.
Pacerss bench is still so ****ing bad.
George Hill just saved that Mahinmi disaster.
Hill :happydanc
Green post up!
Uhhh...continue to run iso plays against KMart
Green :happydanc
Just put him on the post. He can hit this shot.
Pendy at least sets screens and defends plus he moves the ball better than Tyler(which isn't saying much you couldn't be worse than Tyler in that department).

Epson Stylus Pro 7800 Driver Download. Printer Review – The 24-inch Epson Stylus pen Pro 7800 specialist wide-format printers utilize an innovation new 8-color ink technology (K3 ink). The Epson 7800 offers uncompromised print top quality as well as its price factor is presently unequaled in the inkjet printing market today. Rivals such as Roland, HP, as well as Canon have actually not yet reacted with an item that has singificantly affected the industry-wide growth and also word-of-mouth drive of the Epson 7800 printer.
One could make use of the Epson 7800 to make archival prints with fantastic shade integrity, gloss-level, and also scrape resistance. furthermore, the Epson 7800 produces professional neutral and toned black and white prints with higher density degrees and also virtually no metamerism or bronzing. The Epson Stylus 7800 utilizes a 1-inch broad printhead, and also therefore produces almost twice the print efficiency of the previous design line (Epson 9600). In addition, the Epson 7800 delivers an impressive resolution of 2880 x 1240 dpi. The Epson 7800 is capable of handling practically any kind of media kind, in roll or cut sheet, approximately 24-inch broad.
Epson Stylus Pro 7800 Driver Free Download Epson UltraChrome K3 ™ ink technology uses 8 new shade pigments, consisting of a brand-new three-level black innovation, which significantly raises the possible high quality output for expert color as well as black and white prints. Baseding on Epson, these inks provide the best color gamut of any ink presently readily available on the industry (a rise of roughly.2 Dmax to the Ultrachrome), and especially unique outcomes on epson canvas. The addition of the 3rd black ink now allows the Epson 7800 ink-jet printer to generate real monochrome (black and white) inkjet prints.

Like any kind of pro collection printer, these infants allow. Do not intend on unpacking and also establishing it up all on your own. Also the Stylus Pro 4880, which could sit on a table, is ideal handled by 2 individuals, but once you enter the bigger sizes, you absolutely requirement two or more to obtain the printer put together and on the consisted of stand (the 7880 weighs in at regarding 110 pounds). You need to plan on regarding a hr and a half to unload as well as assemble the laser printer, consisting of ink installation. It's a straight-forward procedure thanks to excellent documentation.
When you have the stand set up, you're ready to put the laser printer on the stand and begin asking for the ink lines. The LCD control board strolls you through each step of the process, making it virtually fail-safe to setup. The Stylus Pro 7880 ships with Picture Black ink just. If you plan to do a lot fine art printing, I recommend you get a Matte Black cartridge at the same time as the laser printer, as well as mount that during the first arrangement. Keep in mind that each time you switch over between Matte and also Photo Black, you need to purge the ink line, eating expensive ink while doing so. Driver Free download
After configuration, you'll set up the software for your system. Epson consists of drivers, a network arrangement event, as well as utilities to upgrade firmware as well as take care of paper, and also to carry out maintenance like nozzle cleansing. These are all accessed via the Epson Printer Utility (Number 2).
The new x880 series from Epson, based on the Stylus pen Pro 7880 that I tested, brings some great improvements to the digital photographer curious about high quality result. If you own a 4800, 7800, or 9800, you may not see a reason to upgrade at this time unless the extended range is crucial for you. For those contemplating a big format printer, the brand-new Epson's are an exceptional alternative. Print top quality, support, and paper handling are all top notch. The only genuine disadvantage is the demand to switch blacks when changing between media kinds. If this doesn't put on you, both the Stylus pen Pro 7880 and the Epson x880 collection typically are difficult to beat.

Us Rating: ***
It turns out Angelina Jolie does not have the market cornered on gun-toting, butt-kicking heroines. In this taut and stylish thriller, husky-voiced newcomer Gina Carano makes an indelible impression as a special-ops agent. After getting double-crossed on a job, she darts around the globe to seek vengeance — and the truth. Along the way, she ruthlessly goes mano a mano with her nefarious colleagues, played by the likes of Channing Tatum, Ewan McGregor and, in a titillating after-hours hotel-room scene, Michael Fassbender. Bonus points for Carano's ability to do a headlock in an evening dress and stockings.

It appears that Facebook is moving beyond high schools and colleges and moving into the workplace. It makes sense that they are trying to expand since they are trying to sell Facebook. The $2 billion price that is stamped on it would hinder most people from purchasing it, but they have hopes that expanding Facebook will increase their revenue. They currently earn $1 million each week (these are just rumors but should be accurate) which means it would take about 38 years to earn back the cost of your purchase. Looks like they better expand globally otherwise they will need to find someone with very very deep pockets.
Only ten companies are available on Facebook right now: Accenture, Amazon, Apple, EA, Gap, Intel, Intuit, Microsoft, Pepsi, PWC and Teach for America.

It's Pie Time: Five Pies to Celebrate Independence Day
Try something new this Fourth of July and make one of these five pies instead of the classic apple pie.

After all the hot dogs, hamburgers and barbecue chicken have been eaten on the Fourth of July, the best way to end the celebration is with a slice of pie, and a scoop of ice cream, of course. While you can keep it traditional and bake an apple pie for the Fourth of July, try some of these pies for a little variation in your holiday celebration.
Here are five pies you can make for your friends and family this Thursday to celebrate Independence Day.
Treat yourself to something cool, sweet, tart and refreshing by making a frozen lemonade pie.

5. Frozen Lemonade Pie
Keep everyone cool and refreshed with a sweet and tart frozen lemonade pie from Pat and Gina Neely. Make a classic graham cracker crust along with the filling the night before. Prepare the filling by whipping heavy cream until stiff peaks form in one bowl, then in another bowl combine chilled sweetened condensed milk with a six-ounce can of frozen lemonade concentrate. Fold the lemonade mixture into the whipped cream and put the filling into the sweet graham cracker crust to freeze overnight. Just an hour before you're going to eat the pie, top it with blueberries and raspberries mixed with granulated sugar and fresh lemon juice for a sweet-tart topping.
Give everyone a choice of flavors by making several different kinds of miniature hand pies.

4. Miniature Hand Pies
If you have a bunch of family and friends coming over for the holiday, make a bunch of miniature pies with several different fillings so everyone can have their favorite. Use a boxed piecrust mix, then roll out the dough and cut out five-inch squares. Create several mixtures of fruit (berries, peaches, apples, etc.) with sugar, a splash of orange juice and a little zest, a pinch of salt and cornstarch to hold the mixture together, as Martha Stewart suggests, then place two tablespoons of fruit onto each pie square. Brush the sides of each crust square with an egg wash, then fold diagonally to seal the filling inside. Brush the tops of the pies with the egg wash, sprinkle some granulated sugar on top and cut a small hole on top so your pie doesn't explode in the oven. Bake the pies for approximately 25 or 30 minutes in a 375-degree oven.
3. Banana Pudding Pie
Making pies doesn't have to take a lot of time and it most certainly doesn't have to be complicated. Banana pudding pie is probably one of the easiest to make, and it's super refreshing during the summer time. Pulverize vanilla wafers in a food processor, stir with melted butter, then press the mixture on the bottom and sides of a pie pan, or line the bottom and sides with whole vanilla wafers for a quicker piecrust. Bake the crust until golden brown, then fill with banana slices, vanilla pudding, and more vanilla wafers. Bake the pie for another ten or 12 minutes, then once it is cooled, stick it in the fridge to enjoy after dinner. Don't even try to make a meringue on top of the pie because with this Houston humidity, you'll have a sweaty meringue topping. Instead, place mini marshmallows on top and toast in the oven for a few minutes for a golden, gooey finish.
Every chocolate fanatic will love you if you make a chocolate icebox pie.

2. Chocolate Icebox Pie
Satisfy that chocolate craving with an easy chocolate icebox pie from Pillsbury. Make the filling by melting chocolate chips in heated milk, then combine water, cornstarch, sweetened condensed milk, beaten eggs and vanilla with the melted chocolate. Boil the mixture until it thickens, then stir in the butter. Refrigerate the filling in a chocolate cookie crumb crust overnight, then top with whipped cream for a sweet, cool treat.
1. Cherry-Blueberry Flag Pie
Make a classic 4th of July pie by creating a stars-and-stripes design with the crust, cherries and blueberries. Use cherry pie and blueberry pie fillings to make your job a whole lot easier. Place the piecrust into the pie plate, pour 1/3 of the cherry pie filling into the crust, then create a section for the blueberry pie filling with cardboard. Woman's Day offers this recipe where a 6-inch square of cardboard is bent in the middle to create a wedge and placed in the upper left corner of the pie. Fill the cardboard with the blueberry pie filling, then fill the rest of the piecrust with the remaining cans of cherry pie filling and remove the cardboard. Use a cookie cutter to cut out stars from the piecrust, then place on top of the blueberry pie filling, followed by stripes of piecrust on the cherry pie filling. Brush the tops of the piecrust with an egg wash, sprinkle with sugar, then bake in the oven at 425 degrees for 30 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees and bake for another 25 minutes. Once it's done, you will have the perfect pie to celebrate Independence Day.

NEW YORK – Defeat in the Massachusetts senatorial election has deprived America's Democrats of the 60 votes needed to pass health-care reform and other legislation, and it has changed American politics – at least for the moment. But what does that vote say about American voters and the economy?
It does not herald a shift to the right, as some pundits suggest. Rather, the message it sends is the same as that sent by voters to President Bill Clinton 17 years ago: "It's the economy, stupid!" and "Jobs, jobs, jobs." Indeed, on the other side of the United States from Massachusetts, voters in Oregon passed a referendum supporting a tax increase.
The US economy is in a mess – even if growth has resumed, and bankers are once again receiving huge bonuses. More than one out of six Americans who would like a full-time job cannot get one; and 40% of the unemployed have been out of a job for more than six months.
As Europe learned long ago, hardship increases with the length of unemployment, as job skills and prospects deteriorate and savings gets wiped out. The 2.5-3.5 million foreclosures expected this year will exceed those of 2009, and the year began with what is expected to be the first of many large commercial real-estate bankruptcies. Even the Congressional Budget Office is predicting that it will be the middle of the decade before unemployment returns to more normal levels, as America experiences its own version of "Japanese malaise."

Topic: The Times of London - Cancer Articles
The Times of London recently published a Health Supplement around the idea of 'living with cancer' - an increasing number of people find themselves in this position all over the world.
I wonder if that pattern holds true for cc?
The generally positive articles are together here - they published the supplement around about the 5/6th April - scroll down if others have been added later.
http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/public/si … amp;pf=all
Personally I was interested in one article suggesting that a fresh look at Wikipedia is being undertaken by Cancer UK due to its prominence in google searches and also the one about 'what happens when the hospital treatment stops?'. '5 Myths' and 'will I get back to normal' were also helpful for me.
There may be some guidelines/rules/helpful thoughts in the information that assists some of you supporters and providers of assistance on this forum.
There will be some interesting comparisons to be made with the UK where our survival rates are not amongst the best in Europe or Australia

The Lawrence Arms
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
"Yes sir, this man has no dick."
The Lawrence Arms are an American polkacore band from a little town outside of somewhere in Illinois. They are made up of Brendan Kelly, Chris McCaughan, and Neil Hennessey. They all met while in a homosexual butt-sex orgy in Junior High School. According to the band, they all had the smallest penises there, so they were locked in a closet together and decided that polka-core was better than butt-sex. Kelly, who plays lead accordion, writes most of the xPoLkAcOrEx riffs, while McCaughan (rhythm accordion) and Hennessey (glockenspiel) sit on their asses and whistle dixie.
edit The Early Days
The band formed without the intention of being a band. According to Kelly, they decided that it'd be cool for the coolest kids in Illinois to play music, but not just any music. xPoLkAcOrEx was the way to go. Kelly, who plays lead accordion, writes most of the killer riffs, whilst McCaughan (rhythm accordion), and Hennessey (glockenspiel), are the masters behind the vocals. Kelly's trademark growl is perfect for the yodels needed to make the perfect xPoLkAcOrEx music. They started making music no American in their right mind would listen to, so they mainly played at small Swiss restaurants. But small Swiss restaurants werent enough they later played for just mainly gay men cornish gay men you could say.
edit The Warped Days
Their break came when Kevin Lyman, founder of the Vans Warped Tour, was chowing down on some schnitzel. He heard the band playing in the background of his favorite restaurant, and when he proposed to offer to play Warped, they accepted. All they knew, according to Hennessey, was that there was a lot of people to listen. They had no clue that Lyman told them to play punk rock. When they got on tour, the band was continuously beaten and raped with various objects by the tough crowd attending. After a week, they were kicked off, banned for life. The reason given?
|The Lawrence Arms are a bunch of Swiss fucks that try to fit in with the current xcOrEx fad, and they didn't. They defamed the entire Warped community by playing that pussy shit they call music.
edit Current State
Currently, the band is touring the Swiss Alps and Southern Germany, playing clubs such as Das Yodel Haus in Munich and Le Pays Neutre in Geneva, Switzerland. They are rumored to have recorded a live show whilst in Geneva, which will only be sold to people who attended it. The reasoning for this, according to McCaughan, is because they don't want it to end up on the internet where people can make a mockery of it. People bashing their scene is going to be "the end of xPoLkAcOrEx in America, maybe even the world."
edit What Lies Ahead
The future of The Lawrence Arms is foggy. The x(Insert Genre Name Here)cOrEx fad is undoubtedly coming to an end, and they would just end up like the ska bands of the 90's... dead to the world. According to the band, they wish to change their style of music so they fit in more with America, because Europe is not as manly, and it's the only place that likes their music to be played in.

Un libro in lingua di Gideon Lincecum O'Brien Greg (INT) edito da Fire Ant Books, 2004
- € 15,90
- Il prezzo è variabile in funzione del cambio della valuta d'origine
Valuable, original, and difficult-to-find resources on Choctaw history and culture.
This important book comprises two articles that appeared in the 1904 and 1906 volumes of Publications of the Mississippi Historical Society. In "Life of Apushimataha," Gideon Lincecum tells the story of Choctaw chief Pushmataha, who was born in Mississippi in 1764. A fearless warrior, his name literally means "one whose tomahawk is fatal in war or hunting." As a charismatic leader, his foresight in making an alliance with General Andrew Jackson brought the Choctaws into war with the Creek Nation and into the War of 1812 but served to their benefit for many years with the United States government. In 1824, Pushmataha traveled to Washington, D.C., to negotiate the Treaty of Doak's Stand as pressure grew for Choctaw removal to Oklahoma Territory, but he fell ill and died there. He was buried with full military honors in the Congressional Cemetery at Arlington.
In "Choctaw Traditions about Their Settlement in Mississippi and the Origin of Their Mounds," Lincecum translates a portion of the Skukhaanumpula—the traditional history of the tribe, which was related to him verbally by Chata Immataha, "the oldest man in the world, a man that knew everything." It explains how and why the sacred Nanih Waya mound was erected and how the Choctaws formed new towns, and it describes the structure of leadership roles in their society.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes information about certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP" or "U.S. GAAP"). These non-GAAP measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
Management defines its non-GAAP financial measures as follows:
• Non-GAAP adjusted gross profit represents the corresponding GAAP measure adjusted to exclude, if applicable: (1) amortization of intangible assets and (2) stock-based compensation expense.
• Non-GAAP adjusted operating income represents the corresponding GAAP measure adjusted to exclude, if applicable: (1) amortization of intangible assets, (2) stock-based compensation expense and (3) impairment charges or asset write-offs.
• Non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss) represents the corresponding GAAP measure adjusted to exclude, if applicable: (1) amortization of intangible assets, (2) stock-based compensation expense and (3) impairment charges or asset write-offs. The income tax expense (benefit) included in non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss) is calculated using an estimated long-term effective tax rate.
• Non-GAAP adjusted net income per share represents non-GAAP adjusted net income (which is defined above) divided by fully diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Non-GAAP adjusted net loss per share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP adjusted net loss (which is defined above) by the weighted average shares outstanding as presented in the calculation of GAAP net loss per share.
• Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA represents net loss adjusted to exclude, if applicable: (1) depreciation and amortization, (2) amortization of intangible assets, (3) stock-based compensation expense, (4) impairment charges or asset write-offs, (5) interest expense, (6) amortization of debt issuance costs, (7) other (income) expense, net, and (8) income tax (benefit) expense.
• Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less capitalized software development costs and capital expenditures.
• The Company refers to growth rates at constant currency so that the results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates to facilitate comparisons of the Company's performance from one period to another. Constant currency for revenue is calculated by retranslating current and prior period revenue at a consistent rate.
Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with our results under U.S. GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provide useful information about our period-over-period growth and provide additional information that is useful for evaluating our operating performance. In addition, free cash flow provides management with useful information for managing the cash needs of our business. Management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a more meaningful comparison of our operating results against those of other companies in our industry, as well as on a period-over-period basis, because these measures exclude items that are not representative of our operating performance, such as amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense and interest expense. Management believes that including these costs in our results of operations results in a lack of comparability between our operating results and those of our peers in the industry. However, non-GAAP adjusted gross profit, non-GAAP adjusted operating income, non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss), non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss) per share, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are not measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP and, accordingly, should not be considered substitutes for or superior to gross profit, loss from operations, net loss, net loss per share and net cash provided by operating activities as indicators of operating performance.
Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP financial measures are included in this press release.
