Gwyddelwern, Denbighshire Genealogy
WalesDenbighshireGwyddelwerncommunity and ecclesiastical parish, to the north of Corwen in Denbighshire in Wales. The village is part of the Edeirnion district.
Before 1974 the village was in the historic county of Merionethshire and, between 1974 and 1996 in the Clwyd. In 1974 it became part of the modern county of Denbighshire
The area is predominantly Welsh-speaking.
The name Gwyddelwern translates into English as "alder marsh in the thickets".
The parish church is dedicated to St Beuno and its churchyard is circular, an indication of the age of the site, which possibly dates back to pre-Christian times.
The ancient parish was divided into three divisions, each made up of several townships:
- Cwm: Maes Gwyn; Maes Gamedd; Bonyronn & Trebach; Meiarth & Aelhaiarn
- Uwchmynydd: Bodgynfel & Clegir
- Uwchafon: Cynwyd Fawr; Cynwyd Fechan; Perseithydd & Bodheulog.
The Uwchafon division was detached from the rest of the parish. In 1854 the townships of Cynwyd Fawr, Cynwyd Fechan and Bodheulog were transferred to the parish of Llangar. In 1864 the township of Persaethydd was transferred to the new parish of Llawr y Betws, togther with the townships of Llawr y Betws (from the parish of Llanfor) and Nantffreiar (from the parish of Llandderfel).

What's left out there?
Just renewed, think this will be my last go around, stuff is drying up.
What do I need to get now, before they're all gone?
You make my brain hurt sometimes :(
I've been admiring the "hard chromed" Yugo M57 on classicarms.us. Classic Arms Inc. I've also started seeing some of these Walther P38 pistols on some different sites; Century must be selling some or something.
P38/P1's are good, Samco still has really nice 24/47's and Czech K98's.
Cheap Mausers. K-31s are going up. SMLEs have GONE up. I collect Mossberg 22s from the 40s and 50s, and the price of PARTS for those is out of sight. Just lost out on an EBAY auction for a SIGHT for a Mossberg- I quit bidding at $50!
OTOH, the guns I had before that HORRIBLE boating accident would have been worth a lot more than I paid for them back when.
If you really want a bargain, look at shotguns- especially pumps. Some of the Walther P-1s and Makarovs and CZs are still fairly cheap.
Get a K31. Not many were made, and they will dry up.
C@R drying up
Cant see how this is happening as firearms older than 50 years[made before may 1961] with a few exceptions qualify for C@R purchase.
Its true mil-surplus is getting expensive and hard to find, but everything else is getting higher in cost. So C@Rs are good investments and a lot of fun to own and shoot.
Heck, I like using it to buy spare parts with various companies...
many offer a discount, and they'll sell ya parts that you CANNOT get without an FFL,
like Firing pins...etc...but an FFL03 pays for itself with the parts discounts alone :)
Also great for older civilian weapons!! It ain't just for Mil-Surps!!

Is it a good caliber, oh yeah. As long as you realize its no more than a 150 yard gun but anything you shoot inside that range will stay shot. I am a big fan, well used to be an even bigger fan before old age and Mr Arthur and his brother Itis showed up. Still enjoy the gun but now 4 or 5 rounds in a shooting session is plenty enough and not a box at a time like I used to. It do have a bit of a thump to it.
Save your brass and reload it, it's to nice a gun to just sit on the wall.
Good intentions will always be pleaded for any assumption of power. The Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern will, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters.

Retailers and developers from around the country are preparing to attend the International Council of Shopping Centers' New York deal-making convention in New York City on Dec. 6 and Dec. 7. Chain Store Age talked with Ivan L. Friedman, president and CEO of New York City-based retail real estate advisory firm RCS Real Estate Advisors, about what the industry has in store for the New York show and beyond.
As retailers prepare to attend the New York deal-making show in early December, how would you describe the current state of retail?
Retailers are now resigned to a new paradigm. Their gross margins are up and they have better control of their inventories and other costs. As a result, payroll and other SG&A expenses are down, so we're seeing retailers that are profitable once again. But sales trends are still very much uncertain as we work against the big 2009 sales declines. In terms of real estate, we're seeing very limited, more selective expansions by retailers, as well as controlled capital expenditures. Ultimately, retailers are still sitting on their cash.
Is New York a viable retail expansion market? What other markets should retailers be considering for their expansions?
Investment and overall opportunity in New York City are great. The ability to do a lot of business here is also great; there are plenty of available locations. But, rents are starting to creep up again and I would tell you that expansions in the city are not for the faint of heart. New York City and the five boroughs, when it comes to street locations, are still very expensive on a dollar per square foot basis. So, if a retailer is looking to open a store in Manhattan, Times Square or 14th Street, for example, that retailer is going to likely pay rents in excess of several hundred dollars to, in some cases, over a thousand dollars per square foot. We're also starting to see landlords increase rents on currently occupied spaces where some tenants are not able to sustain the increases, so we're likely to see additional space come on the market as a result.
Retailers should remain focused on the demographics of particular markets they're interested in and choose locations that make sense for them on an individual basis. Some markets, demographically, won't make sense and, of course, there are still a few markets that are suffering economically and therefore should be avoided.
As you look ahead to 2011, should portfolio optimization still be a priority for your retail clients?
Retailers should always be looking at store-level profitability. There's always going to be a bottom 10%-20% of a retailer's stores that are underperforming. So retailers should always be focused on optimizing their portfolios and improving that bottom 10%-20%. A number of retailers have outsourced their real estate departments to third-party providers to do this for them and are seeing some great results.
What other priorities should retailers have in 2011?
Retailers have to continue to control expenses and look at their rents as a percentage of sales, especially as landlords try to put rent increases in place. Retailers need to be cautious, making sure their rents do not become disproportionately high compared to current sales trends.

Que Group: The Que group focuses on bio-inorganic chemistry, specifically on the topic of iron, oxygen and biocatalysis. Our research efforts, involving a combination of biochemical, synthetic inorganic, and spectroscopic approaches, are aimed at understanding the oxygen activation mechanisms of nonheme iron enzymes, designing functional models for such enzymes, trapping and characterizing reaction intermediates, and developing bio-inspired oxidation catalysts for green chemistry applications. Targets include methane monooxygenase and related diiron enzymes, as well as monoiron enzymes with a common 2-His-1-carboxylate facial triad active site, including enzymes that require alpha-keto acids as co-substrates, Rieske dioxygenases that carry out cis-dihydroxylation of arene double bonds, and a novel pair of Fe- and Mn-dependent catechol dioxygenases. Intermediates of prime interest are high-valent oxoiron species thought to be carry out the most challenging oxidative transformations. The picture shows the crystal structure of an oxoiron(IV) complex we have characterized, such as the hydroxylation of methane and the conversion of water to O<sub>2.
Lipscomb Group: We study the mechanisms used by metalloenzymes to activate molecular oxygen. The specific enzymes we study fall into two broad classes. Some catalyze incorporation one or both atoms of oxygen from dioxygen into their organic substrates (methane monooxygenase, aromatic ring cleaving dioxygenases, or cis-diol forming Rieske dioxygenases). The second class create an in situ reagent from the activate oxygen for biosynthetic purposes without oxygen incorporation (isopenicillin N synthase, fosfomycin synthase, ACC oxidase). We utilize a variety of techniques including EPR spectroscopy, transient kinetics, crystallography, and diagnostic substrate reactions. One of our main goals is to discover the intermediates in the chemical reaction cycle of oxygen activating enzymes. These efforts have led to the discovery of intermediates in each of the enzyme classes listed above, most recently culminating in the solution of the crystal structures of the key intermediates in the extradiol aromatic ring cleaving dioxygenase class (Figure below).
Tolman Group: The goal of our research in bioinorganic chemistry is to gain a fundamental structural, spectroscopic, and mechanistic understanding of metalloprotein active sites of biological and environmental importance via the synthesis, characterization, and examination of the reactivity of model complexes. Specific projects are currently focused on understanding copper-dioxygen reactivity relevant to copper oxygenases and oxidases, characterization of novel reactive copper-oxygen species, and copper–sulfide centers in various copper proteins. For details, click here.
Wilmot Group: In the Wilmot lab we seek to understand the structural basis of catalysis by metalloenzymes. The principle tool of our research is macromolecular X-ray crystallography, in combination with spectroscopic techniques both in the crystal and solution, kinetics, mass spectrometry and mutagenesis. We freeze trap catalytic intermediates in the crystal, which give structural "snapshots" along the reaction pathway. These are then assembled into a "movie of catalysis" at the molecular level. We work on MauG (a di-heme enzyme that is involved in the synthesis of the protein-derived cofactor, tryptophan tryptophylquinone [TTQ]); chlorite dismutase (a key enzyme in bacteria mediated chlorite breakdown in water treatment facilities); nickel homeostasis in bacteria (a potential drug target).
Ohlendorf Group: Our lab uses crystallography to understand the structural foundations of biological activity. Our study of metalloenzymes focuses on the nonheme catecholic dioxygenases. These enzymes have a long and rich history due to their ease of purification and variety of applicable spectroscopic tools. We use site-directed mutagenesis to probe specific residues in the active site. We use selection and directed evolution to develop new activities toward alternate substrates. We study the catalytic process through looking an anaerobic complexes with alternate substrates, by freeze trapping intermediates in slowed reactions, and by using Laue techniques to watch reactions with nanosecond resolution. We also use neutron diffraction to directly observe the protonation state of residues and substrates during catalysis.
Pierre Group: Research in the Pierre Group uses an interdisciplinary approach toward the development, validation, and promulgation of metal-based probes for biological and medical applications. We are currently developing luminescent lanthanide-based sensors for the ratiometric detection of small molecules and ions of biological importance. Of current interest are reactive oxygen species (hydroxyl radical, singlet oxygen and nitric oxide), physiological cations (potassium, sodium, and lithium), and anions (phosphates and nucleotides). The very long lifetime of these complexes, and their selective turn-on luminescence upon binding or reacting with the desired analyte, renders them promising candidates for the quantitative spatial and temporal detection of their target. Similarly, we are developing the first ratiometric responsive contrast agents for Magnetic Resonance Imaging based on paramagnetic, lanthanide-based fluorine probes. The development of this new class of responsive MRI contrast agents could rapidly be expended to the selective in vivo detection of any biomedical reporter for both biomedical research and diagnosis purposes.
Hooper Group: We study the structure, mechanism and evolutionary history of the metallo-enzymes which oxidize ammonia to nitrite in the chemolithoautrophic bacterium, Nitrosomonas. The hydroxylamine-oxidizing enzyme contains 8 covalently bound c-hemes; the catalytic c-heme is also covalently crosslinked to a tyrosine. The enzyme shares ancestry with a penta-c-heme nitrite reductase lacking the tyrosine crosslink. A tetraheme c-cytochrome has a pentacoordinate heme in a putative ubiquinone binding site. In a new family of beta-sheet mono-heme c-cytochromes, a putative N-oxide dehydrogenase, cytochrome P460, has a covalent lys crosslink to the catalytic heme; the enzyme is closely related to a beta sheet cytochrome c' lacking the lys crosslink.
Lu Group:We seek to unravel how metalloenzymes convert small molecules using inorganic chemistry. Our approach is to develop, investigate, and exploit unusual structure-function motifs that are found in nature. For example, Fe-Fe hydrogenases may utilize metal-metal bonding for activating hydrogen. By preparing model coordination complexes featuring reactive metal-metal bonds, we can extract a detailed picture of their physical and electronic structures that may elucidate the underpinnings of their function. We can then apply this understanding towards new systems that improve on the natural counterparts in activity, selectivity, and substrate scope.

I sometimes find that I get spots still despite being quite old and am always looking for products that will help with them. I recently bought this Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Night Cream to see if it would make any difference.
I don't normally use a night cream as I find that they make my skin too oily and can tend to make my spots worse. I was interested in a night cream that would particularly help with this rather than be to heavy for my skin.
The product comes in a small green container sized 30ml. I was disappointed that this was the only size that you can buy as if it is used every night as recommended it is easy to use it up very quickly and then have to buy some more.
I tend to use the product in the early evening rather than just before I go to bed as I like to put it on after I have taken my make up on and washed my face to help moisturise. The product is a white cream which has the slight medicated smell of tea tree. It slides onto my skin easily and is always quickly absorbed and does help my skin feel both fresh and moisturised which is what I want.
I am not sure at all if the product really helps to prevent spots (you ever know what your skin would be like without using it) However I do think it is a good night cream for people who do not really want to use a heavy product and as it is slightly medicated can only help!
I would describe my skin as being quite problematic, in that it has several issues to overcome including sensitivity, dryness and spot outbreaks. I have tried out endless products over the years in a bid to overcome these problems, and find that products containing Tea Tree are very effective in helping to combat some of the issues. In particular, I find that Tea Tree - or products containing this helpful ingredient - are very effective in keeping spots at bay.
As I am a huge fan of the assortment of products from The Body Shop, I have used a variety of products from their own-branded Tea Tree range over the years. This review will outline my experiences of using "The Body Shop Tea Tree Blemish Fade Night Lotion".
The current price for the small 30ml bottle of lotion is £9, and you can purchase the item in store from branches of The Body Shop, or online at www.thebodyshop.co.uk, where postage costs usually apply. (Info correct as @ March 2014).
The packaging is quite simplistic, but I find it works very well, mainly thanks to the integrated 'pump' dispenser at the top of the cylindrical bottle. The bottle is quite small and neat, so it fits neatly into the palm of my hand without feeling cumbersome. I find that the pump dispenser will easily dispense a small amount of the Lotion product with each press; this prevents unnecessary waste, which I cannot stand, and would be somewhat unforgiveable given the slightly high purchase price of this particular product.
The Tea Tree Night Lotion is just that; a lotion product. I do not really think it could be described as a cream as it is not thick enough, although this is not a criticism on my part. I find the Lotion's light and thin texture allows it to be spread easily over the skin's surface, which I think is rather ideal as it means there is very little in the way of effort required to apply it - very convenient, considering the product is designed to be applied after cleansing the face at night time - who can be bothered with fuss or faff at this hour of the day?
The Night Lotion has a sort of 'yellowish' tint to it, although I find it is so rapidly absorbed into the skin's surface that it is hard to be sure - it might just be off white. I find that 'dotting' the cream along the cheekbones, and applying a small dab to my chin, forehead and nose is really ample for my own requirements, as the Lotion spreads so easily; using any more than this feels a bit wasteful. I like how the Lotion doesn't leave my skin feeling sticky or with a 'tacky' residue, as I find this a bit off-putting. Instead, my skin feels rather 'cared for' and softened, with no greasiness lurking on the skin.
As you would probably expect, there is a strong aroma of Tea Tree evident as the lotion is applied, and I find that this lingers for a short while afterwards; I can't say that this fragrance is particularly invasive, but I am aware of the scent's menthol-like 'breath' whispering from the skin after the lotion has been applied, so if you don't like the scent of Tea Tree I'd advise steering clear of this product altogether as I find it is much stronger than some of the other, similar products that I own from rival brands. Also, I would advise that I find when the product is used alongside some of its 'sister' products from elsewhere in The Body Shop's collection of Tea Tree facial care products, the Night Lotion's scent seems to take on much more 'body' than when it is used alone; presumably, the culmination of the Tea Tree scent from the various products allows it to become much stronger. Again, this isn't a criticism on my part, but I thought it a helpful point to mention within this review.
I do find that the Tea Tree Night Lotion works quite well at keeping my skin moisturised; any dryness is easily eliminated, and I have never been aware of any 'tightness' being present in my skin once the product has been applied and absorbed; this is a tell-tale sign that my skin is lacking in moisture, and is a common side-effect of many other Night Cream/Lotion products that I've bought before, so I'm happy with the fact the Tea Tree Lotion seems to be more 'in tune' with my own skin type.
Earlier, I touched on the fact that the product was much 'lighter' than most other Night Lotions that I've purchased before, and I do think that this is a contributing factor in the way the product works; it is designed to help "minimise the appearance of post-blemish marks and discolouration." I feel that if the product was thick and creamy, it would simply 'smother' blemish marks in a thick layer of product which is never really going to help them fade, in my view. Thanks to the Tea Tree Lotion's thin texture, it is more easily able to deal with the matter in hand.
In actual fact, I do feel the product works, but I do feel that it works best when used as part of a regular skincare routine, and I do have to admit that I feel the product works best when used alongside some of the other products from elsewhere in the same range; I find the product is particularly effective when I first cleanse my face with The Body Shop's Tea Tree Facial Wash, then I apply some (diluted) Tea Tree Oil to any blemishes and spots. Finally, I moisturise my face and neck with The Body Shop Tea Tree Night Lotion and voila! - skin is cared for, and blemishes are treated.
The results are evident from following this regular regime; existing spots and blemishes are cared for, and have significantly diminished in their appearance and colouring, thanks to the Tea Tree's healing properties. In addition, however, I do feel that less blemishes and spot outbreaks have occurred overall, which is a result that I can really only attribute to the highly effective spot-busting properties of The Body Shop's marvellous products, with the Night Lotion being among my favourites from the whole range.
In terms of the product's suitability for my sensitive skin type, I would advise that it has never aggravated the skin or caused any dryness or itching. The only point I would mention at this stage is that I have noticed that the Night Lotion will cause a slight 'tingling' in the skin on occasion - not EVERY time, but quite often. This really only seems to affect two areas - the tops of my cheeks, where they meet the bottom of my under-eye area, and the top of my lips, under my nose. For some reason, the product seems to cause a bit of a reaction if it is applied too near to the eyes or mouth, and although I have never applied it directly to the lips or too near the eyes, I confess that the tingling - whilst not painful or harsh - is something that has made me slightly cautious. Other consumers - especially those with skin that is not as sensitive as mine is - may well find that the product causes no sensation whatsoever, but I would suggest perhaps trying it out on a small area first, just to ascertain its suitability for your own skin type before going ahead and smearing it all over your face.
This little issue has not put me off from using this fabulous little product, and I confess that I do feel that it is one of the best Night Lotion products that I have ever used, mainly because it just feels so in tune to my own skin type which is dry/combination, whilst being prone to occasional spot outbreaks and blemishes; the fact that it can cope with all these issues, without adding to the problem, or feeling too harsh or rich for my own sensitive skin type make it an absolute winner as far as I am concerned.
It is probably no surprise, therefore, that The Body Shop's Tea Tree Blemish Fade Night Lotion comes with my full recommendation, together with top marks in the product rating score.
Following the advice I received from my lovely Body Shop at Home Consultant (personal shopper adviser as I buy so much BS stuff) I purchased both the Tea Tree Facial Wash (see separate review) and the night lotion.
I've never moisturised in my life and have never been one to use lots of the same product range (I like to figure out what works best individuality and add to it if needs be), however, due to a sudden outbreak of spots that I had avoided in my teens which seemed to be ganging up on me in my late 20's, I wanted to make sure I didn't take any chances.
I apply this in addition to the facial wash, however I have done some days with both and some days using one or the other. Each night I put one 'pump' about the size of a pea on my finger and dollop a small bit from that dollop on my forehead, one on each cheek and my chin to make sure I get all of it. I then massage each part well, making sure it is well sunken in. Then, I leave it to do it's thing. It leaves my face nice and soft, but without leaving it sticky. The pump action works well as I think the temptation with moisturisers that are in a 'squeezy tube' is to put quite a bit on so you are saturated, so the pump is handy as it seems that one push equals the right amount, for me anyway.
Since I started using this, I haven't had any spots at all, however I do have to point out that I am using both products. I think from the days where I have alternated I am confident enough that I can say that both work separately, and the lotion has an additional aspect of softening my face ready for the morning.
At £9.00 a 30ml bottle it is one of the more expensive products I own, and I'm not sure that I would purchase it again until I had performed a 'proper test (sad huh?) to make sure that it is worth the money without the facial wash and that it had some additional purpose making it worthwhile in itself. It's also difficult to tell how much you have used overall as the container isn't see through, but I've had it a month and it hasn't run out so far - still good value for money in that sense. They could do with an option to save money and buy a bigger bottle, eg 60mls at £15.00 (saving £4.00) and in a bigger bottle it wouldn't seem so expensive.
The Product
= = = = = =
The product I am reviewing is from the Tea Tree range from The Body Shop. This range of products contains Tea Tree oil which can help the appearance of blemish-damaged skin. This product is a soothing gel crème which helps to replenish moisture overnight leaving skin looking matte. The product also has an antibacterial action which helps to prevent other blemishes form appearing which results in clearer looking skin. The product comes in a tall bottle which seems quite small as you do only get 30ml of the product in the bottle. The bottle is a light green colour and has a clear plastic lid in which you can see the pump lid through. On the front of the bottle it states what the product is and whom it's made by. On the back it tells you how to use the product and what ingredients are in the product. The Body Shop use mostly Fair Trade products and the tea tree oil used in this product comes from Mount Kenya where they are picked by hand and steam-distilled to release the oil. I have tried a range of different products before which have contained tea tree oil and I have found that some work better than others. Although I don't suffer from spots a lot I tend to get a few that appear during my time of the month and I always try to make them go just as quick as what they appeared. I always find the smell of some products with tea tree oil in quite overpowering and strong, how-ever if the product works then I can live with this. I was actually going into my local Body Shop store to purchase a few others items and I browsed some of the other ranges. This looked like a good product and it sounded as though that it would help to prevent blemishes from occurring, so I was willing to give it a try.
= = = = = = = =
I purchased this from The Body Shop for £9.00 which is for a 30ml bottle of this product. You can also purchase this from their website which is www.thebodyshop.co.uk. There are various other products in the Tea Tree range which includes:
* Skin Clearing Lotion
* Exfoliating Pads
* Tea Tree Oil
* Facial Wash
* Body Wash
* Cleansing Wipes
* Foaming Cleanser
* Facial Toner
Using the Product
= = = = = = = = =
On the bottle is suggests smoothing the gel crème onto the face and neck after cleansing and toning. I followed the instructions so after cleansing and toning (which I do every morning & evening anyway) I got ready to use the product. When using the product for the first time you will need to push down on the pump a few times in order to dispense some of the crème. As the bottle is quite slim and small it's easy to hold in one hand and to press the pump to dispense some of the product onto the tips of your fingers on the other hand. When the gel crème came out I was surprised to see that it was white as I was expecting a clear type of gel. After pressing the pump once to dispense the product I decided I would use this first to see if it was enough as I wouldn't be able to out any leftover product back inside the bottle. The crème does have a very strong smell to it which was expected seeing as it contains tea tree oil. I used my finger tips to rub the crème all over my eyes being very careful to avoid the eye area. The crème felt smooth against my skin and I found that a little of the product goes a long way. Shortly after applying the product my skin felt a lot cooler than it had done before applying the product. I felt my skin and it felt extremely smooth which I was a little surprised at. Lately I have been getting a few small spots on my chin and I still had a few there or a few that were still coming out so I was hoping that this would help get rid of them before they came too red or sore. Although I had applied the product to my skin I couldn't smell it as much now which was good as I do sometimes find products containing tea tree oil quite strong smelling and they can become a little overpowering.

I don't think I can really record the results just from 1 night of using this product so I am going to use the product over the course of the next week and then write about the results. This means I will get the chance to see if the product really does work or not. The first morning of waking up after applying the product the previous night my face still felt really smooth and soft, I was impressed by this. I still had the small blemishes on my chin but they certainly didn't look any worse than they had done the previous day. I was hoping that in the next few days these blemishes would disappear and no others would appear whilst using this product. I have been using this product for 2 days now and the blemishes on my chin haven't appeared to have got any bigger. There aren't any new blemishes cropping up anywhere either, so far so good. This product would be really put to the test this week as it's nearly my time of the month which is when a spot always tends to crop up. I continued to use the product over the course of the next few weeks. Although I didn't get any large, red spots appearing I did get one or two blemishes on my chin which was small white heads that I had to squeeze a little in order to make them disappear (gross I know!). In terms of keeping blemishes and spots at bay the product did an ok job as I didn't really get any big, sore blemishes that I normally get during that time of the month. Although all blemishes weren't eliminated I am confident that the product helps to keep blemishes at bay.
Overall Opinion
= = = = = = = =
The product is quite expensive for a 30ml bottle, how-ever it did work and I didn't really get any large blemishes or spots appear all the time I was using this product. I actually stopped using the product for a few days and sure enough a blemish appeared which was quite sore and red. As soon as I started using this product again the blemishes were reduced and if I did get any they were very small and about the size of a pin head. The down-side to this product is the strong smell which I don't find particularly pleasant and it can be quite overpowering, how-ever the scent of the product doesn't really linger which is good. I was impressed that I didn't get any spots, particularly during my time of the month and I'm confident that this product helped to reduce them. I would purchase this product again as it had worked well; and had worked a lot better than any other products. I also love that this product leaves my skin feeling really cool, fresh and smooth and soft. I'm going to take a few stars off this product due to the smell and price of the product.
(review also on ciao)
I'm a huge fan of Bodyshop's skincare ranges and I know I can always trust their products. This night lotion cost me around £7 but now it retails for £9, so it's worth shopping when they have the '3 for 2' offer across skincare and cosmetics.
The product comes in a green tube with a clear push-down dispenser and a clear lid. I like this dispenser because it's easy to use and it's hygienic, the reason being that no bacteria can enter the product, as is sometimes the case with some other products where you have to dip your finger in. The sticker on the tube has all the information you need such as the ingredients list, directions for use, amount of product you get (which is very stingy, I must say) etc. etc.
I apply this lotion after I've removed my makeup and cleansed and toned at night. On applying, it feels smooth and creamy but doesn't take long to soak in and isn't at all oily or greasy. It leaves my skin feeling smooth and fresh and smelling of tea-tree oil, which is quite pleasant. Once the product has soaked in I begin to apply other products such as eye cream and acne treatment. The lotion is fine with this and doesn't react in any way. In the past, I have found that some skin lotions tend to roll up or flake whilst I apply my acne cream, but this one is fine.
The product claims to help improve the appearance of blemish-damaged skin, and I think it does do this. It definitely reduces the appearance of red and inflamed acne which is always a plus, and it helps balance out the oil in my skin. My skin still feels fresh when I wake up the next morning.
This is a perfect alternative moisturiser for someone with oily skin who doesn't want/need a heavy moisturiser at night time, although at £9.00 for only 30ml is pretty expensive. As I'm a student, I can't really afford this so would probably only buy again if it was on a good offer or if I had some spare cash (which is rare).
For years I struggled to find a night lotion that not only combated my blemishes but worked effective despite my sensitive skin. Although I have never been an extreme suffer from spots, like all women, my skin is not always blemish free especially after a few days of heavy make up! I first discovered this product, after a friend told me that tea tree oil was meant to not only work well with sensitive skin, but also leave your skin with a polished look, as well as remaining soft and leaving your skin spot free, after only a few days use. This product certainly exceeded my expectations for all of those reasons!
Whilst it is slightly pricier than perhaps a night lotion from boots or super drug, the retail price being about eight pounds, it's well worth spending the few extra pounds on this excellent product! The lotion smells lovely, with the added bonus of giving your skin a fresh scent that lasts till morning!
***What made me purchase this produce?***
I bought this product due to pressure from the sales assistant who bombarded me with products when I walked through the door... I instantly wanted to walk out, but I'm oh so glad I didn't!
***What does the Blemish Night Lotion claim to do?***
It moisturises the skin whilst not adding any oil to the skin. It minimises past blemish scarring and discolouration with continuous use.
***My thoughts***
The Body Shop blemish night lotion seems to have considerably calmed my skin of redness and I have not had lots of new blemishes every morning once I have woken up which has been a relief.
It is a thin gel/lotion which is nice because it feels like the perfect thickness for blemished skin, it doesn't sit on the skin without sinking in.
The only 'however' that I can give you though is that it does smell very strongly of the main ingredient of Tea Tree Oil. So if your partner or if you sleep next to anyone at night doesn't mind this smell for the entire night then that is fine, but otherwise you might have a problem using it as a regular night moisturiser. Lucky for me I have no one next to me at night so I can stink of the stuff all night long!
***Would I recommend this product?***
I would recommend this product because it is a very reasonable price of £6 for 30ml and The Body Shop always has fantastic offers like 3 for 2 which is an extra bonus. I would also recommend trying other products in the Tea Tree Oil range. If it does what it says on the packaging I recommend it!
It is also worth checking out some of the other parts of the range. I have also purchased the tea tree oil facial wash and tea tree oil day cream. Together these products work really well together. I have been extremely impressed by these products because I normally buy Clinique's Anti Blemish range which is much pricier than these Body Shop products.
I give it 4 out of 5 star... 1 star is missing for the overpowering smell!
This was one of many impulse buys, which not much thought went into. When I bought this product, I had heard nothing about it, and it went into my stash of beauty goodies to be used, after reading a review on here about it, I decided to dig it out and give it a go, which I'm happy to have done now.
It is quite a different treatment to what I am used too, I wouldn't describe it as a moisturising lotion but neither an oil based product, it is more of a thick serum. I have combination skin, so I try to avoid anything oily or heavy moisturiser.
I don't think this really has an impact on the huge zit that has just appeared but I feel it work s best at healing your skin. I use it by cleansing my skin, then massaging in a small amount into my clean and dry face. You only need one squirt of it because a little really goes a long way, it will probably cover your whole face. As this is thicker than most moisturisers, I rub it in but it normally takes a while for your skin to absorb it. If you plan on applying your make up afterwards, I advise applying your normal moisturiser on top of it, as the lotion is quite sticky and it helps to blend the lotion into your skin and leaves an even base for foundation.
In the evening, I normally apply it with moisturiser on top but you can just use the Tea Tree lotion as it is moisturising enough without anything else and you can use it all over your face avoiding the delicate eye area or you can use it on just problem areas. I prefer to use it with moisturiser as my skin feels dehydrated from the harsh winter cold weather.
Personally, I see this as something as a miracle lotion, there are plenty of creams and potions that claim to do all sorts for your skin but this is the only one that I have found that gives visible results after just one use, it really calms your skin, fades scars and blemishes, and brightens dull patches to give you glowing skin.
It isn't just to repair skin, it also has other uses. Apparently, it is fantastic as an aftershave balm. I personally haven't tried this but after my boyfriends report, he said it was very soothing and had a cooling effect. I can imagine it being very good for nicks and scratches because of the healing properties it has.
I think my tube cost around £9 (it is quite a while ago now) but if you have a Body Shop loyalty card, you'll receive an extra 10% discount. I think this is a great price and really good value, I have been using mine for the last couple of months and I'm not even a third down the bottle.
I really don't understand why this hasn't had more advertising as in my opinion it is a fabulous treatment.
I've never been too keen on the Tea Tree range in Body Shop as it doesn't seem to make any difference to my skin, but I noticed some excellent reviews for a newer product called the Blemish Fade Night Lotion in the Tea Tree range. The next time I was buying something from the Body Shop, I remembered those reviews and decided to give this a go (and I was armed with my Love You Body card to get 10% off!).
The lotion matches the other products in the Tea Tree range and comes packaged in a pump action 30ml size bottle. The Body Shop describe this lotion as a lightweight, soothing gel that sinks into the skin to help improve the appearance of blemish-damaged skin, help equalise oiliness and replenish moisture while you sleep. Sounds too good to be true really! They also say that regular nightly use helps minimise the appearance of post-blemish marks and discolouration. Now, I have used such blemish fade products in the past and I don't believe in them now, but because of the positive reviews I had read of this I was willing to give it a go.
I began using this every night, I know that these sort of things take a while to start working so I was willing to wait a few weeks to see if I started noticing any difference. The gel is a lightweight gel as promised and it smells strongly of tea tree, so if you're not a fan of that smell then you really won't like this! I found I only need to squirt a tiny amount out for each area of my face (I concentrated more on problem blemish areas) and it absorbed well into the skin. It doesn't feel greasy afterwards, nor does it cause any stinging on my face, it was quite pleasant to use. You can smell the tea tree on your face for sometime after, as I don't mind the smell too much this wasn't a problem.
I've been holding off on writing this review as I really wanted this product to work, I really did. Yet again I have been truly disappointed with a blemish fade product which promises so much, but delivers so little. I'm shocked when I read again some of the 5 star reviews on this as I just don't see any of the benefits when I use it! It's been great as a sort of, night moisturiser, as it's lightweight and doesn't clog the skin, but my blemishes still appear and the marks certainly don't fade any quicker, and I haven't noticed any improvement in the appearance of my skin at all. I frequently suffer from blemishes on my chin and so, when I have been using this almost religiously every night, I have been concentrating more specifically on this problem area. I've not noticed the marks left over by blemishes disappearing any quicker than naturally, nor have I noticed less blemishes appearing. My skin is just as oily and I just can't see any of the promised benefits at all.
The small 30ml bottle has lasted me ages, I've been using it for months now and I'm only just nearing the end of the bottle. It costs £6 but I'll be sticking to my normal moisturiser in future as this hasn't made a difference. It's a shame as I just really wanted this stuff to work, as it's done for others, but I failed to see any difference since I've been using this.
Price: £6 for 30ml
From: The Body Shop
For: Improving the appearance of blemish-damaged skin overnight
The packaging is plain and simple but with the usual Body Shop high quality feel to it. It's a cylindrical plastic bottle with a press top dispenser which gives you a nice controlled amount of the product.
It's a thin gel textured lotion which feels really cool on the skin, and has a very obvious tea tree scent to it, without being too strong or overpowering. It sinks into the skin very quickly, so you do need to be quick in applying it or you'll have to use a lot more than you really need just to cover the whole of your face.
After applying the lotion the skin feels really soft and smooth. It soothes the skin and helps to smooth out any lumps and bumps caused by blemishes. It seems to also soothe any redness and inflammation, helping the skin to look better and clearer.
After using the lotion regularly for a few weeks my skin definitely looks clearer and more radiant, and feels soft and smooth. It didn't cause any irritation to my sensitive skin either, which many products with tea tree in do.
The only real problem I can see with this product is that although you don't need to use much each time, you do only get a very small amount to start with, so the bottle doesn't last that long, and it does work out to be fairly expensive.
All in all I think this is a pretty good product.
Thumbs up from me.
A couple of months ago, I suffered from a really bad breakout of spots that lasted for several weeks. Eventually, the spots reduced in size and started to fade, but left behind some red-purple marks. At first, I liberally applied witch hazel in the hope that this would shift the marks but this didn't work. I came across some reviews for this product here on DooYoo and was in two minds about whether to buy it as it was quite expensive and I have bought plenty of spot treatments in the past without any success whatsoever. As you can guess from the fact that I'm reviewing it, I caved in and spent the money. Was it worth it?
***The Packaging***
I bought my bottle online so I had no idea about its size. When it arrived in the post, I was quite surprised to see the size of the jiffy bag (ie not very big!) and sure enough, the lotion isn't particularly big. By that, I don't mean that it's miniscule, but I did expect a bit more for some reason. I don't know quite what happened with my order as my bottle arrived with no lid!
The bottle is a pump action one so you just need to press down lightly on the pump to dispense. Don't press down too hard or you'll end up with too much lotion and there doesn't seem to be any way to unscrew the lid to get excess back in.
***The Lotion***
The lotion itself is a light green colour, as is common for products containing tea tree. You don't need to use much of this so it does go quite a long way. To give you some context, I have blemish marks across both sides of my cheeks (next to my nose) going down towards the chin and across the chin. That's quite a sizeable area as it's basically the bottom half of my face but a few small pea-sized 'pumps' of this cover it fine.
The lotion does take a good few minutes to dry properly but it doesn't feel tacky or overly greasy and has more of a light feel to it. I expected to be able to feel it drying (which I really don't like!) but this isn't the case.
***The Results***
I've been using this lotion religiously for almost a month now and have noticed a good improvement in the appearance of the blemish marks. While they've not disappeared altogether, they have faded in colour and now look more like old scars (with the silvery-grey colour of those, rather than the angry red-purple of a month ago). All in all, they are far less noticeable than before, which I'm very happy about. I didn't expect them to go away completely and would be surprised if anything actually did that so this is about the best I could have hoped for. Over the past week, I haven't noticed any further fading so I would imagine that this is good as it'll get, but as I said, that's fine with me!
***The Price***
So how much will this lotion set you back? I bought mine on The Body Shop website for £6 (£9 if you include the delivery charges on top). I don't know if this is the standard price or whether it had been reduced (some things were in a sale at the time) but for me, anything less than a tenner is good value for something that actually does what it says as it really has faded the blemish marks for me. I thoroughly recommend this product based on my experiences of using it.
This was one of those not-so-researched purchases. When I bought this product from the Body Shop it was newly launched, or so I was lead to believe, as there were no details of it on their website. I couldn't find any reviews online either. Yet I was still compelled to buy it - I'm glad I did.
It's quite a unique treatment: not quite a moisturiser, not sure how you'd categorise it really but what I will say is that it's one thing I wouldn't be without.
The Body Shop's Tea Tree Oil Blemish Fade Night Lotion is amazing at making the remnants of spots disappear. You know, the blotchy, dull and scarred skin that's left behind after a really bad breakout? This is the stuff (the magic stuff) you need to make your skin look all peachy again.
It does help to clear actual right-here-right-now spots but I feel that this lotion performs it's magic in the healing stage. So if you're there right now (or your skin is still looking a bit drab from previous breakouts) this is what you do. On clean and dry skin, massage in a squirt of lotion. One whole squirt will most likely treat most of your face so try just using a little bit at a time. It has a thicker consistency to moisturiser and sits on the skin for a while before sinking in. You don't need to keep massaging it in for ages (like other scar serums) just rub it in as you would a lotion then if you like apply your regular moisturiser all over your face as you would normally. This is important if you've applied it in the morning and wish to apply foundation over it. The layer of moisturiser will help blend the Tea Tree Lotion into the skin and create a barrier between it and your makeup. This product is a little sticky, it's a bit like a gel/serum and so foundation (especially mineral foundation) tends to cling to it. So moisturise after the Tea Tree Lotion girls! Boys: you don't need to worry about any of this!
So that's the daytime usage. At night you can choose whether you need your moisturiser on top or maybe you're just happy with the Tea Tree Lotion. It has enough moisturising properties in it so you can go without another moisturiser (in my opinion) and if you like you can use it all over your face (avoid the eye area) but I usually just target problem areas.
From my experience with other spot creams / scar lotions, this is the only product that visibly improves the look and feel of problem skin overnight and sometimes that's all it takes - one night! It's excellent. It calms redness, brightens dull patches and makes scars fade. I can't understand why it wasn't raved about instore and online. It's truly a magical lotion.
It has other uses too, again something it doesn't boast about. Apparently it's really good as an aftershave balm. Yes. It's very soothing and helps with razor bumps and razor burn. So get yourself a tube of this guys!
It's about £9 at The Body Shop. (you get 10% if you have a 'Love Your Body' loyalty card) It lasts for ages. I've had mine for about 6 or 7 months.
I happily recommend this product for anyone suffering from blemishes. It's a must have treatment.
The Tea tree Oil Blemish Night Lotion by the body shop is another great product from The Body Shop. I do get the occasional spots on my face (a lot more before I started using the seaweed mattifying day cream). I read up about tea tree oil as I had heard that it has amazing herbal and medicinal properties. It is usually for very dry skin, but if this is not your skin type, this serum is the perfect solution for spots.
What you do is, just target the actual area where there is a spot rather than applying all over the face. This totally dries the spot up before the morning and disappears by the end of the day. Is that good or what??
It does have a strong smell and there is a possibility that it may be slightly itchy on first usage but it only gets better after that.
I usually use it at night on its own, without any other night creams on. I like my skin to be able to breathe through the night. I target the areas where I have spots and apply just a tiny drop and gone by the next night. AMAZING!!
They are quite expensive (I think they are £9) but don't me on that one. The bright side is, they do last forever. I have had mint for about 5 months now and I am not even through with a quarter. So, over the long term period, good value for money.
To conclude, I think it is a great product and a perfect solution for all those women that may have atleast a spot on their face.
Definitely recommended!

Baseball: Kelly drafted by Twins in 12th round
The final day of the 2014 MLB Rule 4 Draft was a good one for Red Wing's Pat Kelly. The University of Nebraska junior was selected in the 12th round (350th overall) by the Minnesota Twins.
"It was pretty cool," Kelly said of seeing his name come up on MLB.com's draft site. "We were watching on the computer and saw the Twins (had a pick) coming up, and we thought there was a chance. Then I saw they picked me and then the phone rang and it was (the Twins) on the phone. It was pretty awesome."
Kelly still has one year of collegiate eligibility remaining, so he does not have to sign a professional contract.
"We'll see what happens in the next couple days," Kelly said, adding that he expects to make a decision by Tuesday or Wednesday. "We'll keep in touch with (the Twins) and see what happens."
Kelly said is not leaning one way or the other right now, and that the weekend will be spent with family as the Cornhusker figures out his baseball future.
"I'm just trying to enjoy the moment right now, enjoying it with my family," Kelly said.
Nebraska finished the season 41-21, falling 4-3 to Cal State Fullerton in the NCAA regional tournament.
"It was a good season for us," Kelly said. "It's not how we wanted to finish, but 40 wins and getting back in the NCAA tournament was good."
Kelly had an inkling he'd be drafted on Saturday, he just wasn't sure when the call would come.
"We knew there was a good chance it would happen early (Saturday), just not when or by whom," Kelly said. "I was pretty excited to see it happen."
Kelly, a second baseman, started all 62 games for Nebraska, batting .311 with 10 doubles, a triple and a team-high four home runs. In the field, Kelly had a .990 fielding percentage in 315 chances.
The deadline for amateur draft picks to sign a professional contract is July 18, three days after the All-Star game.

A business degree (particularly an MBA) may be just want you need to land that big job at a Fortune 100, but it's the last thing you need to launch your own company. After all, YOU are the boss. You don't even need to wear your best suit, and have a pretty resume to get a job working for your own company.
Instead, running your own business (no matter how big or small) will be a constant source of new experiences and new knowledge. There is truly no better way to learning than just DOING IT!
No question, many arguments can be made for having a degree, even if you are running your own business. But when it comes to starting up, you will save HUGE amounts of money (think tuition, room, board, and time to work) by just going out and getting started. Skip the degree for now. Five years later you can go back to school and actually afford it! Chances are you'll be the best student in the class. Heck, you'll probably know more than the professor!

Can you make an int greater than 2 ^ 31 - 1 (2,147,483,647)? Or is there a class you can use for that purpose? I can't use a double or a float.
unsigned long will increase the range somewhat but if you want to go higher than that you need something like http://swox.com/gmp/
C99 called just to say "long long". ;)
Thats C only and this is the c++ board.
Thanx for the awnsers, but i've downloaded the gmp software, and i don't understand how to use it. Could you maybe give a short explanation?
Quzah: I use classes and other C++ specific things in my program...
read the manual. It contains plenty of installation info for mingw and gcc. If you use MSVC you can use MinGW to build a lib that can be used with MSVC. Theres some instructions in the manual. For use of the library once built see the documentation and samples.
You might want to search for other, C++ specific large integer classes, or even C++ wrappers for GMP, if they are out there.
From my experience, if you have a lot of number crunching to do, the C function-based syntax of GMP can be a royal pain (sorry Quzah).
Make your own integer class! Or use gmp if you don't want a mountain of extra work.
Some people have no sense of humor. I guess I won't bother telling you that Java's long is 64 bits, since you wouldn't find that amusing either.Quote:

Also, you can use my HugeFloat library for "unlimited" length numbers and rapid calculations. And it is as easy to use as a built-in type. Just click on that link or visit the library page on my site (see sig).
The reason I didnt mention __int64 is because it is m$ specific. I also knew that long long was a popular extension offered on gcc but that is specific to that compiler. Typedefs and conditional compilation could solve the problem but the more compilers you need to support the more like a spiders web your code looks. When you need numbers bigger than the language supports natively you should reach for a library if portability is any concern at all. There are numerous bignum libraries out there and there is a fair chance that a bignum library will be added to c++ at the next standard review.
__int64 is not specific to Microsoft. __int64 is not one of the standard 5 integer types (according to C99 section 6.2.5 paragraph 4), but it is a legal ISO/ANSI extended integer type as defined by that same paragraph.

Plainview man sentenced to 28 years for murder
Wed, 07 May 2014 21:53:39 GMT —
Plainview man, sought for a 1992 killing in Texas and captured last summer in Colorado, has been sentenced to 28 years in prison for the fatal shooting.
A Hale County jury on Tuesday sentenced 41-year-old Jose Luis Aguilar after he was convicted of murder.
Federal Marshals in Lubbock located Aguilar last July in Denver after learning he was living in the area under an assumed name.
Aguilar was returned to Plainview for trial over the slaying of 27-year-old Guadalupe Fraire during an argument at the rodeo grounds.
The defense sought a lesser charge such as voluntary manslaughter. Aguilar testified he felt threatened by Fraire and was protecting himself.
Prosecutors say Aguilar shot Fraire because the victim had called him names.

While they lasted, the pants are great. So if you're a weekender who wants to stay dry I highly recommend them. I'm talking 14-30 days a season will probably last you a couple years.
However, for a serious rider/worker in a wet environment I would not recommend them. I've used them pretty much every week 2-7 days a week from Mid-Nov. to Jan and they've blown out on me. In three separate places. Hips and down the center. Not fun to have to go without goretex for a few weeks. Burton was very easy to work with however with a warranty. Hopefully they've solved the problem with the next pair.

ATLANTIC CITY — The floor of the Atlantic City Convention Center on Monday was a child's imagination realized in full.
The Philadelphia National Candy Gift and Gourmet Show offered larger-than-life displays of lollipops, licorice whips and enough chocolate to pave the Boardwalk. Or so it seemed.
But there were no kids in this makeshift candy store — not one.
"If they let children in here, you wouldn't have a trade show left," said Joan Sweeting, vice president of Madelaine Chocolate Co., in Rockaway Beach, N.Y.
The trade show is billed as America's largest dedicated to retail confectioners. The association represents 300 manufacturers and distributors in the United States and Canada.
"It's not the largest candy convention, but it's a big deal," President Francis Cox Jr. said.
Candy is big business in South Jersey, contributing to the state's $40 billion tourism economy one pound of fudge or taffy at a time. The convention offers companies a chance to market new products and reach new customers.
Sweeting — that's her real name — said Madelaine's novelty candies are found on every Boardwalk in New Jersey: chocolate poker chips and outsized coins, foil-wrapped holiday treats and long-stemmed chocolate roses.
"We're helping people celebrate. What's better than that?" she said.
Despite its sugar-coating, the industry is competitive, with companies constantly trying to carve out and defend their own niche.
Kencraft Confections, based in American Fork, Utah, makes hand-pulled candy canes and hand-decorated lollipops. It has collegiate lollipops with team logos and a new line called "lollipals" with characters made from royal icing, Vice President Jeff Tillery said.
All-natural products are gaining popularity, with lollipops sweetened and colored from beet juice. Kencraft is constantly developing new products, he said.
"The company that isn't innovating is dying a slow death," he said.
Koppers Chocolate, in Greenwich Village, N.Y., sells its candy caviar mints, cocoa cappuccino cordials and dark-chocolate pomegranate seeds to upscale retailers such as Saks Fifth Avenue and Bloomingdale's, representative Adriana Tejada said.
The third-generation company's products are served at wedding receptions, formal parties and special occasions all over the world, she said.
"I like our chocolate-covered cherries," she said. "It's a dry cherry with rich semisweet chocolate. It's very good."
Candy is a discretionary good with sales that fluctuate with the economy. According to the market-research analyst IbisWorld, candy sales are poised to rebound after falling during the global recession.
"As the economy rebounds, consumers will gain more disposable income and increase spending on industry goods, especially premium chocolates," IbisWorld said in a 2013 report.
Jerry Brenner, of Mount Vernon, N.Y., and owner of Epicure Candy Co., said people have cut back on spending for candy since the recession.
The biggest loss was seen in corporate gifts, one of the first things companies slashed in lean times, he said.
Valentine's Day is the king of candy holidays, trade show members said. But with Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and Hannukah still to come this year, candy businesses are saving the best for last.
"We'll see how this year goes. The fourth quarter is our biggest in the candy business," he said.

AUBURN, Ala. — Auburn coach Gene Chizik says freshman Kris Frost, one of the nation's top outside linebacker prospects, won't play this season.
Frost had shoulder surgery in late July, and Chizik said Tuesday "there's no way" he'll be back in time. Linebacker is a position where the Tigers need immediate help.
Frost was injured during a summer workout. Chizik says he'll be doing a "very thorough" rehabilitation program the next few months.
Paterno home from hospital: Joe Paterno was released from a hospital, two days after getting blindsided at a Penn State practice by a player and injuring his right shoulder and pelvis.
The school said in a statement the 84-year-old coach was looking forward to returning to practice today.
"It's time for everyone to turn the attention to the team," Paterno said in the brief statement. "We have a lot of hard work ahead in order to be as good as we think we can be."
Penn State confirmed no surgery was required.
Sooners leading tackler may miss FSU matchup: Oklahoma defensive captain and leading tackler Travis Lewis will miss up to eight weeks with a broken bone in his left foot, leaving the Sooners without one of their best defensive players for a few crucial early-season games including Sept. 17 at FSU.
Athletic trainer Scott Anderson said Lewis' injury will be treated with rest and immobilization. Lewis, chosen as the Big 12's preseason defensive player of the year by the media, was injured Monday during Oklahoma's first practice in pads.
Vols DB has surgery: Tennessee sophomore defensive back Dontavis Sapp had surgery to repair his fractured left ring finger.
A team spokesman said Sapp, who is expected to compete for playing time at strong safety, injured his finger during practice Monday and underwent surgery Monday night.
He is expected to return to practice within a week or two and be available for the season opener Sept. 1 against Montana.
Orange players injured: Syracuse has lost three players to injury in the past three days, including junior starting free safety Phillip Thomas and offensive guard Nick Lepak after blows to the head.
Thomas had surgery Monday to repair a jaw fractured during practice Sunday. He'll return to noncontact drills over the next few days.
Lepak, a senior, sustained a concussion Monday and is out indefinitely.
Also hurt was linebacker Zack McCarrell, who strained a hamstring and is out indefinitely.
Obituary: Jimmy Harris, the starting quarterback for much of Oklahoma's record 47-game winning streak in the 1950s, has died. He was 76.
The Osborn Funeral Home in Shreveport, La., says Mr. Harris died early Tuesday.
Mr. Harris took over as Oklahoma's quarterback during the 1954 season and never lost a game, leading the Sooners to national championships in 1955 and '56.
Mr. Harris had career totals of 1,237 yards rushing with 10 touchdowns and 745 yards passing with another 10 TDs. He also made eight interceptions while playing defense.
Basketball: A lingering injury will prevent one of Duke's promising freshmen from taking part in the Blue Devils' exhibition games halfway around the globe.
Guard Quinn Cook is being shut down until at least mid-September to allow his knee injury to continue healing, coach Mike Krzyzewski said.
While Krzyzewski "definitely" expects Cook to be back by the time preseason practice starts in October, the coach said he noticed during workouts before the team's upcoming trip to China and Dubai that Cook didn't have enough strength in the knee. Cook played his senior year in high school with injured ligaments in his right knee.

Most MP3
players support an .m3u file: a plain text file that contains the
MP3 filenames and locations that should be played, in a specific
order (or randomized from within the player). These M3U files are
slightly different from .pls files, which are
typically used for streaming radio. A sample M3U is shown here:
This isn't too exciting. However, M3U files can also
be filled with MP3 URLs, which is often the case when a user has put
her collection online and is streaming them personally or to anyone
who'll listen. M3U files have also become the
default for listing software, such as
(http://www.turnstyle.com/andromeda/) or
Apache::MP3 (http://www.apachemp3.com.
shows an Andromeda listing from
Here's a sample M3U with URLs:
This hack will read M3U files and smartly download the MP3 URLs
referenced within—smartly in the sense
that it will create prettier filenames, as opposed to heavily
URL-encoded values like my%20greatest%20hits;
understand parent folders, which are often the names of the albums;
and take care not to download tracks it already has, without skipping
tracks that it might have but which are incomplete. It will also give
progress readouts as it's
A script like this has a major advantage over a utility like
wget. Since it keeps the same hierarchy
represented in the URL, the script has greater control over keeping
files well organized, as opposed to
wget's input command , which would download
the URLs individually.
To set the script going, invoke it on the command line with a local
M3U file:
% perl leechm3u.pl m3ufile.m3u
This is all fine and dandy, but where are we to find these magical
M3U files floating around on the Net? There's the
rub: they're not premade; you make them yourself.
Utilities like Andromeda and Apache::MP3,
mentioned earlier in this hack, create an automated list of a
user's MP3s. To listen to them, you pick and choose
what you want via checkboxes, click the Play button, and whoop, get
served an M3U file. Download that M3U playlist to disk instead of
letting it queue up in your player, and you now have a local copy to
pass to leechm3u.pl. You can even pass more than
one M3U file at a time to the script.
The next issue is finding sites that run these listing utilities.
Oftentimes, if you know the name of the utility, you can find a
unique string that will identify it in a Google search. Take
Andromeda, for instance. Anytime someone installs it, all the
generated files have "Powered by
Andromeda" in the footer. By doing a search for that
quoted term, you can find a number of entries. Then, it just becomes
a matter of queuing up what you want. Since more and more people are
releasing their own MP3s this way, you're sure to
get a decent number of matches for music you've
never heard of, but should.
Here is a collected list of some "software
signatures" for your
"powered by andromeda" or
"search andromeda"
"play all"
"apache::mp3 was written"
"powered by edna"
intitle:"GNUMP3d" subdirectories
The following signatures aren't applicable to the
script in this hack (because they generate either ugly M3U files or
something entirely different), but aspiring hackers could probably
modify this hack to work with them:
"welcome to ampache v"
"dynamic mp3 lister - listing mp3s
This script uses URI::Escape to turn an encoded
URL into a better-looking filename. However, not everyone will have
this module installed or have the time, inclination, or capacity to
get it. Those without it (or those who'd like more
portability) can replace the following line:
foreach (@parts) { $_ = uri_unescape($_); }
with a regular expression:
foreach (@parts) { $_ =~ s/%([0-9A-Fa-f]{2})/chr(hex($1))/eg; }
Likewise, if you're using this script for your own
personal purposes, you might not be interested in the remote
file's naming scheme. For instance, if
you'd rather
artist_name_-_track_name.mp3 be something like
Artist Name-Track Name.mp3, you can throw in
your own renaming filters to clean up $file_name.
For example, to replace all those underscores in the filename with
spaces, you can use this:
# create an OS-specific path to our album and file.
my $album_path = catdir($dir, $album_dir);
my $file_name = $parts[$#parts]; # prettier.
$file_name =~ s/_-_/-/g; $file_name =~ s/_/ /g;
my $file_path = catfile($album_path, $file_name);
mkdir $album_path; # to prepare for dumping.
Save the following code as a script called
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
# LeechM3U - save mp3s listed in an .m3u file, smartly.
# Part of the Leecharoo suite - for all those hard to leech places.
