NeoStrata SecureWhite Serum LAUNCH!Monday, April 20, 2015
NeoStrata held an event the other week to showcase the upcoming launch of their newest addition to their SecureWhite line -- SecureWhite Brightening Serum with Genowhite, "the latest in skin lightening technology". Those that attended got the products to test out and I have been using it since the event date.
I'm sorry to say that I've never used NeoStrata before but after this experience I most definitely and going to look into more of their products. I like that they're a Canadian company (!) and they're one of the only dermatological cosmetic lines IN Canada. Basically they're not dishing out baseless claims. We were told their products actually go through three trials, clinical, dermatological and NPN.
The three ingredients they've highlighted during the press event were:
Product description:
The SecureWhite™ Brightening Serum is a highly concentrated and very effective solution for hyperpigmentation that also provides an overall brightening effect.
Ideal for:
All skin types
Brown spots
Irregular skin tone
Age 20+
Up to 67% reduction in the appearance of the intensity of dark spots
Reveals more uniform, younger and healthier-looking skin
Up to 42% improvement in overall skin lightening
Size: 30 mL
Suggested retail price: $48.00 -- NeoStrata
aqua, glycerin, vigna aconitifolia seed extract, sodium citrate, sucrose dilaurate, polysorbate 20, pisum sativum (pea) extract, glycereth-7 trimethyl ether, hydrolyzed jojoba esters, acetyl glycyl beta-alanine, hydroxyphenoxy, propionic acid, phenoxyethanol, ethylhexyl-glycerin, xanthan gum, magnesium aluminum silicate, tocopheryl acetate, disodium EDTA, parfum/fragranceOn the directions it says that you can use it once or twice a day (don't forget to use sunscreen if you're wearing it in the daytime). The scientist they brought in said that this isn't a forever change. How it works is it penetrates all layers and reduces melanin surfacing. The best thing is that this is designed for all levels of colour. They also claim it's the fastest lightning serum, after just two weeks it visibly reduces dark spots by up to -52%.
The serum is suitable for sensitive skin as well as it is NON-COMEDOGENIC, NON-IRRITATING and PARABEN-FREE.
What I've noticed:
The serum is a gel-cream like substance and easily spreads on the skin. One and a half pumps is good enough for my entire face and neck. It absorbs quickly into the skin leaving a soft and smooth finish making it a great option for a makeup primer in the daytime. Although not highlighted, I believe their has to be some smoothing agents because that's one of the things I really noticed which did lead to a brighter complexion. After just the first day of using this and the other products my face felt great. I guess my skin really wanted a serum in it's life! I will say that I don't suffer from any hyperpigmentation or an uneven skin tone to notice any results on that side of the spectrum.
We got the whole line which is recommended to use in combination for maximal effects. The SecureWhite Cream was a nice day cream (with SPF!) that left my face shiny but not oily. It was really odd actually, my face has this nice gleam to it but when I rubbed my fingers over my face it just felt supple. The eye cream really plumped up my undereye area. I've learned that I don't have to put it ALL under my eye but in the areas that need brightening and plumping. I don't have undereye circles so I can't say anything about their brightening claim for that. Overall, the serum is my favourite and my best pick out of the lot.
One of the things I learned during the event is to SING HAPPY BIRTHDAY 3x to yourself while cleansing your face. I KNOW! Sounds funny but I started doing it and now I can't seem to stop. One of the speakers, Patricia (correct me if that wasn't her name!) told us that we need to let cleansers do their work and give it some time. I've heard this about the cleansing method which I've been using for YEARS but never really held to it. I guess now that I've been told by someone who knows their stuff, I've rethought it. I DO double-cleanse (after OCM I use a regular cleanser) and feel really clean --but not tight-- afterwards.
Also, if she ever reads this, I'd like to say I DO think of you each time I clean my face now --you're a wonderful speaker!!
NeoStrata's SecureWhite Serum will be available MAY 2015 for the public.

I was at a workshop the other day for work and the day started with some light team building. No problem, I was thinking. I'm all over this. First question… think about a time when… and that was it… checkmate. Anytime I'm asked to remember a time, or remember when, it's a ride on the struggle bus. My kids often ask me obscure things like, "Mom, remember that time when I went shopping with you and you hit me when you found that purse you liked?" Ok, that one I do remember, in my excitement over finding an adorable purse, I hit him. As in "oooh, oooh, look at this purse!!" Ladies, can I get a nod on that one, I mean, it was a purse. But other things like, that time at the pool, or that time we were in the car and you asked us [insert whatever random fact you can think of], those things I struggle to remember.
I've chalked my lack of remembering up to my failing memory. Menopause brain, just saying. But in the workshop the other day, as I struggled to think up a time to share, something else occurred to me. I'm sometimes so busy rushing through life that I forget to take the time to actually live it and remember it. It seems like there are always so many things going on that I'm jumping from one thing to the next in rapid fire pace.
It's exhausting. The details get blurred. And while I'm accomplishing and getting stuff done, I'm not able to remember the joys along the way. That's not ok with me. Not ok to be so busy doing that I end up missing my life. Part of the joy of life, I think, is to be able to come up with so many answers to "remember a time…" that choosing just one is the struggle.
I don't want to live like that anymore.
So I've been looking at how I can shift, how I can slow down long enough to notice the details. To celebrate the good times and, equally important, grieve the hard ones. At my weekly girlfriend coffee, we've been talking about multi-tasking. The scientific proof that if we say we're good at multi-tasking, we're really just kidding ourselves. I used to think I was the queen of multi-tasking. But…that's a lie. I can look at it now and realize I only paid half attention, at best, to the multiple things I was doing.
But how do you stop. Our culture rewards multi-tasking. And we're subjected to a constant barrage of information. We juggle our multiple devices, glued to our phones for fear of missing anything, and then add on the complexities of everyday living and the information that comes at us.
It's a choice. And actually, it's simple. Do one thing at a time. Really, that's it. Simple, but maybe not easy. You could sit down at dinner and just eat, enjoying your food, actually realizing that you're nourishing your body. Have a conversation with a loved one, no phones allowed. Focus on them, what they're saying instead of being on edge wondering what you're missing not checking your phone, your social media, what everyone else is doing. That's just living your life through other people. Engage in the life that's going on around you. Notice your environment, the natural beauty, let that fuel you. If you have to be on your computer, which I do for work, do that and then stop to talk to people around you. Don't do both at the same time.
Simple. Just do and be fully in one thing at a time. Your life is beautiful, my life is beautiful, let's truly live it. Be brave, your life has been right there with you the whole time.

The NYPD has deployed its crow's-nest-like Sky Watch tower (above) over the Diamond District to keep an eye on the bustling area's emeralds, diamonds and other baubles – but shop owners can count on the extra security only during the peak shopping season.
"We like to have as much security in the street as possible," said Michael Grumet, executive director of the Diamond District Business Improvement District.
No specific threats prompted deployment of the Sky Watch, he said.
The $90,000 tower is situated on the west end of the district, which spans 47th Street between Fifth and Sixth avenues. It is manned by a cop and equipped with eight cameras and two video recorders.

Getting OpenDCRE¶
OpenDCRE's source can be found on GitHub, where the OpenDCRE Docker image will need to be built. Alternatively, a pre-built OpenDCRE image can be downloaded from DockerHub.
Building from Source¶
Once the OpenDCRE source code is downloaded (either via git clone, or downloaded zip), a Docker image can be built. No additional changes are required to the source for a complete, functioning image, but customizations can be included in the image, e.g. the inclusion of site-specific TLS certificates, nginx configurations for authn/authz, etc.
The included dockerfile can be used to package up the distribution:
docker build -t opendcre:custom-v1.3.0 -f dockerfile/Dockerfile.x64 .
A Makefile recipe also exists to build the OpenDCRE image and tag it as
vaporio/opendcre-<arch>:1.3, where <arch>
specifies the architecture (e.g., x64). For the x64 architecture, this recipe is:
make x64
If building a custom image, apply whatever tag is most descriptive for that image.
At this point, OpenDCRE can be tested (see Testing) and run (see Running OpenDCRE) to ensure the build was successful.
Downloading from DockerHub¶
If no changes are needed to the source, the pre-packed version can be used. It can be downloaded from DockerHub simply with
docker pull vaporio/opendcre:1.3.0
Updating OpenDCRE is as simple as building a new image from source, or pulling a new image down from DockerHub.

Apple Unveils iPhone 4 Complete with FaceTime Video Chat
by Rob on
June 7, 2010
Filed under Apple, Devices, News, Tips and How-To's, iPhone
Steve Jobs in his keynote address at the World Wide Developer Conference (WWDC10) in San Francisco unveiled the new iPhone 4 today. Of course, if you're an iPhone fan you'll know that much of this was leaked a few weeks back, which Steve eluded to in his keynote with "stop me if you've seen this before." The new iPhone 4 sports a full redesign and includes many enhancements including a 5mp camera, a front facing camera, new A4 processor and more.
The complete feature set of the new iPhone is impressive. Aside from it's complete new redesigned form factor (which is made of a glass front and back) the new iPhone 4 has and all new display (probably the biggest improvement) that supports 960×640 resolution at a whopping 326 pixels per inch. The new display is said to be awesome (which I totally believe given it's pixel density).
Other new additions include:
- 960×640 326ppi 800:1 Contrast Ratio IPS screen
- 3mm thinner (9.3 vs 12.3 on iPhone 3GS)
- Proprietary Apple A4 processor (System-on-a-Chip) – Same chip that the iPad uses
- Bigger battery, more juice for 7 hours of 3G talk time and 10 hours of video
- Cleaner construction free of arsenic and other contaminants
- Two microphones to support noise cancellation
- A new hardware gyroscope specifically aimed at game developers to improve phone orientation and control
- 5mp camera with backside illuminated sensor complete with LED flash that supports HD video (720HD @ 30fps)
- Forward facing camera to support FaceTime (Apple's branded iPhone 4 to iPhone 4 video chat) although this is WiFi only
The list of improvements in the new iPhone 4 are impressive. While these are the only ones that we are highlighting rest assured that there are many, many more. Pics below are from the keynote grabbed from GDGT.com. We've followed GDGT.com before and they have by far the best live feeds of any Apple event that we've seen. For a full breakdown of the entire keynote head on over to their live feed (the content is still there) and read through it.

Student or Learner
Hi there it's Me again,
I did this quiz here a minute ago:
Try to do & Try doing, etc
And I found out that I have much problems with this particular part of the English grammar.
I wonder why in this case the first answer is correct:
She went on _____ the CEO a few years later. to become
Is it because there's a comma missing?
Because as far as I know if it would be the following, it would only mean that she went on and became the CEO a few years later so that would be correct also, depending on what you're trying to say, right?:
She went on, becoming the CEO a few years later.
And a last question. Is there any simple thumb rule for non-native speakers that indicates when to use the gerund or the infinitive? Or is the only way to learn it and to use it right, to learn these irritating rules.
Thank you very much in advance
My bad. What confused me was the phrase "She went on". I thought it means to go on with something instead of starting to do something. I guess a dictionary can be useful sometimes...
Thanks for your help by the way.
I guess there's no way around just learning and hoping that I'll get it someday.

I forgot to charge my laptop yesterday so used the forced break to practice my sketching, but I'm back in it today and development continues.
The Mutation Map tool now has the ability to view and edit both the overall map and the individual stats of each head. It can also do the same for Feet, and I'm working on getting the remaining mutation maps (Limbs, Coverings, Colour Patterns, Feature Models and Feature Textures) into the tool. Hope to be done by the end of the week and moving on to other things, though that may be a bit optimistic.
Also took some time to begin taking my Stat encapsulation to the next level. Currently we have 6 types of Stat:
- GeneticStats encapsulate a mutation rate, plus mutate, randomise and blank routines, for every gene.
- FloatingGeneticStat: A hereditable decimal number, like "torsoWidth" or "headSize". Encapsulates an upper limit and lower limit in addition to the mutation rate.
- DiscreetGeneticStat: A hereditable integer number, like "numberOfFeatures". Just encapsulates the mutation rate.
- BooleanGeneticStat: A hereditable yes/no value, like "hasTail" or "hasNeck". Just the mutation rate again.
- MappedGeneticStat: A stat with a mutation map, like "headType" or "bodyCovering". Encapsulates the entire mutation map structure.
- BasalStat: a non-hereditable stat which is imported from an external file, linked to a MappedGeneticStat. Like how HeadType determines Diet, or how LimbTipType determines BaseLimbDamage. These stats are rarely used directly: usually, they feed into formulas to determine other stats. (diet is an exception)
- UpdatableAttribute: a type of Stat I have encapsulated but haven't derived from IStat yet: these are things like Health, Energy and Biomass, which change over the course of a creature's life. Encapsulates a list of "Deltas", making it possible to track the source of changes to these stats (you can see these deltas listed out on the energy page in creature details).
There's only one major type of stat still missing, at least on a per-creature level:
- DerivedStat: Any stat which calculates itself from other stats. For instance, Speed takes into account LimbSize, LimbBaseSpeed, TorsoWidth, TorsoRotation, LimbTipBaseSpeed, and so on. DerivedStat will encapsulate all these stats, plus the formula used to combine them.
The method I'm using to encapsulate the formula uses something I haven't spent much time with in the past: delegates. I'm storing it the entire formula as a delegate inside the DerivedStat instance. This means I get to define the formula in StatData, but still use the built-in accessors of the objects, so I get the same intellisense benefits and high performance as if I was defining the calculation over in Phenotype.
The result looks like this:
"mass", //Name
"Mass", //Printable Name
"Determines how much stuff there is in the thing", //Printable Description
delegate(Genome genome, BodyPlan bodyPlan, Phenotype phenotype) //boring code stuff
return bodyplan.Volume * genome.Skin.Density; //Formula
The relevant bit is the second-last line: that's the only place that formula needs to be defined. All I have to do later is call Initialise, and the DerivedStat takes care of calculating itself on behalf of it's parent creature, pulling other stats in and combining them, as well as throwing errors if stats haven't been correctly initialised.
Yes yes, making with the boring and the code and the words and the stuff, so what? Why do we care?
Here's why we care: every calculation, limit and mutation rate from the raw genes to attributes like speed and stamina is now stored in StatData. This one file is becoming the spinal column of a lot of the simulation's behaviour, so tweaking mutation rates, adding limits, changing names and descriptions, and now adjusting stat formula will all be possible simply by changing the input data here.
And I intend to expose that input data to modding.
Cue the maniacal laughter,

|Victorious Molesworth I after Saturday's Southern Cricket
Association grand final win at Boyer Oval.
This low total was due to some very good bowling by the Molesworth attack. Larry Menzie and Nathan Eiszele both snared three wickets each, while Dean King with 2-16 from 10 was as good as any of his spells this season, and Martyn Evans picked up 1-29. At one stage the Sharks were 7 for 72, but recovered somewhat with a solid 70-run partnership from Roberts and Symington which then made the it a defendable total.
|Molesworth I captain Jamie Adams
receives the SCA premiership cup
and shield from Megan Roberts.
To make Eiszele's efforts even more creditable, he hadn't played for the past five weeks due to an ankle injury. Put together 3-29 and a runout with his 43no and its no wonder he was named man of the match.
|Man of the match
Nathan Eiszele.
Captain Jamie Adams spoke very well during the after-match presentations, dedicating the season and two premierships to five-year-old Logan Tomlin who has leukaemia.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Counselling in Wolverhampton, West Midlands
People normally hear or read about obsessive behaviours and disorders being linked with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), which is a diagnosis widely used within the mental health profession.
However we have found it more helpful to separate Compulsive Behaviours from Obsessive Behaviours as the way they affect people's lives and the way in which they are experienced is very different.
In general terms a Compulsive Behaviour is one that is undertaken, often with little thought, on impulse or with a sense of having been 'driven' to it, and "instant relief" is felt, however, more frequently than not, this feeling of satisfaction is almost always associated with a sense of Guilt or Shame.
However, with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder this sense of "relief", the "instant gratification" is often never achieved which leads the sufferer to even greater confusion and conflict.
Frequently, when a particular "routine" or "obsessive thought" fails to provide any kind of relief, the sufferer will conclude that they must carry our longer or more complex repetitions in order to achieve relief.
These "ever-growing" cycles of behaviour or thinking can become "paralysing" and without the appropriate help can lead to an almost complete inability to "function normally".
Obsessions that can be helped
Obsessive thoughts and behaviours can range from simple everyday behaviours such as tidiness (e.g. placing all food tins in the cupboard with the label facing outwards) to counting numbers or doing sums in their head to the point that they can think of nothing else.
With all obsessional thoughts and behaviours, it is the degree to which the issue is preoccupying your time and/or limiting your life that is important.
For example, someone who worries about dirt or contamination may simply wash their hands carefully, maybe try and avoid using public toilets, or perhaps ensure they do not touch doors or handles in public toilets even if this means waiting a long time for someone else to open the door so they can nip through 'untouched'.
However, place this same person under stress and they may begin to wash their hands obsessively and for some people this may become ritualistic to the point that their hands are never clean enough to leave their house.
Symptoms of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
Below is a list of symptoms that are typically associated with Obsessions, although the obsessive thinker is capable of "creating" a wide range of complex and variable symptoms:
- Being overly jealous or possessive over a partner
- Eating Disorders (e.g. avoiding certain foods, anorexia)
- Constant worry about something
- Sleeping problems (e.g. insomnia)
- Paranoia
- Excessive exercise
- Continual negative thoughts
- Intrusive thoughts
- Constant counting
- Excessive tidiness
- Rituals

This smooth and sweet Apple + Kale Baby Puree is a fun and easy way to introduce mighty kale to your little one
Kale can be a tough vegetable to introduce into your baby's diet. Too much kale in a puree and it can become super bitter. Too little kale and you are missing out on essential nutrients found in kale. To find the perfect balance, I copied Beech-Nut's just apple & kale puree for a delicious and nutritious puree that both of my girls loved!
Let's see what is actually inside both of the purees, my homemade puree and Beech-Nuts puree –
Apple – this is the base of the puree. Apple puree is sweet, simple and provides a solid base for almost any puree for baby without it being too watery. Most babies love apple puree so using it as a base for any vegetable combination is a common way to get baby to eat denser vegetables. But don't count apples out for adding in a ton of nutrition. Apples are loaded with two different kinds of fiber, vitamins C, K and B6, potassium and they are a great source of antioxidants. These nutrients combined make apples an anti-inflammatory food that helps improve digestion, promotes bone health, aides pulmonary function and helps fight cardiovascular disease.
Kale – mighty kale! The superfood which every adult loves (or hates) to eat. Kale is loaded with vitamins K, A, C and B6, manganese, copper, calcium, iron and folate, just to name a few of its many nutrients. Put all of these together and kale helps support a healthy heart, promotes eye health and aides in brain development in babies! Kale is truly a super food for both you and baby.
I like to serve this puree with a big spoonful of plain full-fat Greek yogurt mixed in, because when you are going to serve this many nutrients to baby you might as well go all the way. Go big or go home, is my motto! Greek yogurt is a great way to add in some healthy fat that is great for brain development, probiotics to promote a healthy gut and calcium for healthy bones and muscles.
Anyway you serve this puree, it will be a winner in your little ones eyes (and mouth)!
Apple + Kale Baby Puree
4 apples, peeled, cored and roughly chopped
1/2 cup kale, roughly chopped
1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring 2 inches of water to a boil. Place the chopped apples into a steamer basket over the boiling water, cover and steam for 9 minutes or until tender when pricked with a fork. Place the kale over the apples, cover and steam for an additional 1 minute. Let cool slightly. Reserve steamer water.
2. Place all of the ingredients into a blender or food processor and puree for 1-2 minutes or until completely smooth. If your puree is too thick, add in the reserved steamer water, breast milk, formula or water into the blender in 1/4 cup incraments until you achieve your desired texture. I had to use 1/2 cup of reserved steamer water for the puree featured above, but amounts of added liquid will vary with each batch.
3. Serve and enjoy.
Spice It Up – Feel free to add in 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp ginger, 1/8 tsp cloves, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract or all of the above for a spice sensation!
Age: from about 6 months and up
Yield: roughly 18 ounces
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Storage: store in an air-tight container in fridge for 3 days or in freezer for 3 months. These are one of our favorite freezer storage trays.

|Gingerbread from Miss Edna Lewis
I really like Gingerbread. I spent some time this morning looking around at the largest Gingerbread recipe collection out there, Google! It is fun to search and find, but you will find so many. And then, which do you finally choose to make? I have about 6 bookmarked right now. I found many different styles of recipes and then kept on looking until I found this one, that I wanted to make.
This one from Miss Edna Lewis, as featured on The Wednesday Chef. Maybe it was the gently stewed rhubarb on the side that caught my eye, but still, it is the gingerbread that I desire. I spotted it months ago, and have thought about it often since then. I did a bit of research on Miss Lewis, she was a very interesting lady. Brave and feisty and also a great cook. Just possibly her personality is what influenced me to want to bake this gingerbread. You see, I do like feisty!

Trumbull First Selectman Tim Herbst, a major critic of Gov. Dannel P. Malloy and political hardball player against Democrats in general, is running for governor.
Herbst has formed an exploratory committee for statewide office under the rules, but, like Danbury Mayor Mark Boughton, he is primarily focused on running for the state's top political post.
In his take-no-prisoners approach, Herbst does not parse words in saying that Democrats will be gunning for him in 2018 in the same way as they tried unsuccessfully to knock him out of the Trumbull first selectman's seat in 2015.
"I don't have patience for the Hartford ballet under the Gold Dome," Herbst said in an interview Friday. "That is not how I roll. I am not afraid to shake things up, and I'm not afraid to take on special interests to do what's right. There are a lot of special interests who will not want me to win statewide office. I'm not just talking about unions. I'm talking about lobbyists, the Hartford insiders, the people who curry favor. They're not going to like me. That I can assure you."
Regarding Democrats, he added, "They're going to throw the kitchen sink at us in 2018. I think I have the intestinal fortitude and political will to take those punches and take on the Hartford insiders and go up there and drain the swamp."
At 36, Herbst has already run once for statewide office – losing narrowly in 2014 against longtime Democratic state treasurer Denise Nappier. Herbst lost by fewer than 19,000 votes out of more than 1 million cast.
An outspoken Republican, Herbst formed a political action committee to raise money against Democrats in the 2016 elections. He targeted and helped defeat state Rep. David Alexander of Enfield, a former Trinity College graduate who had battled against Alexander in a student body election 15 years earlier.
Malloy has not announced yet whether he will run for a third term, but Herbst continued to criticize the governor whom he has described as "toxic" and "radioactive" in the past. He said Malloy was one of the key reasons Republicans gained 8 seats in the House of Representatives and three seats in the state Senate in the November elections.
The Connecticut Democratic Party has repeatedly tangled with Herbst, sending out emailed comments against him and his tenure in Trumbull.
"We are absolutely shocked that, after years of trying to use his office as first selectman as a political steppingstone, Connecticut's most ambitious junior Republican is once again gunning for higher office," said Michael Mandell, executive director of the state Democratic Party. "We can't wait to find out which statewide office he is running for this time."
Herbst also sharply criticized Democrat Dan Drew, the Middletown mayor who has also opened an exploratory committee for governor. Drew was criticized for comments that he made that the tax system can be improved for the middle class, but he said they were not a swipe at Malloy.
"When it comes to the failed policies of the last six years, Dan Drew is Dan Malloy on steroids" Herbst said. "Dan is very far left. He basically took a shot at Dan Malloy. … It tells me that Dan [Drew] is taking a very calculated risk. He's going hard left because he realizes that many primary voters are liberal."
Drew burst out laughing when told that he was compared to Malloy on steroids.
"Instead of engaging in a back and forth with a Republican candidate, my goal here has been and will continue to be to talk about what turns Connecticut's economy around and what has turned Middletown's economy around," Drew responded. "We have a AAA bond rating, which Trumbull does not have, by the way. I'm not really interested in engaging in a tit-for-tat with Tim or any other Republican or any other candidate."

Baader Maxbright Binoviewers W/ 1.25" Nosepiece and 2.6X Glaspath - DISCONTINUED
Baader Maxbright Binoviewers W/ 1.25" Nosepiece and 2.6X Glaspath - DISCONTINUED
Baader Maxbright Binoviewers W/ 1.25" Nosepiece and 2.6X Glaspath
Baader Planetarium holds each and every binoviewer they produce to absolutely stringent standards of quality- and it shows in these marvelous pieces of equipment, every time you use them. Used with a telescope to produce a different kind of viewing experience from standard monocular eyepiece usage, the Maxbright Binoviewers are a solid investment for any visual astronomer. Use of two eyes rather than one has notable benefits- such as a notable reduce in eye strain, more comfortable viewing, more natural focusing, compensation for floaters or astigmatism, and even the reduction of visual noise in images! These effects are viable and notable for both planetary and deep sky viewing, and certainly worth giving at least one try to in every astronomer's career- and either to give it a try, or to commit lastingly, the Baader Maxbright Binoviewer is an excellent choice!
This model comes with a 1.25X Glasspath Compensator and a precision 2.6" Nosepiece, both threaded for filters. Furthermore, all of the air-to-glass surfaces are fully multi coated, notably improving illumination and contrast. The eyepiece holders are laterally adjustable, and the entire thing comes with a foam lined carry case! It also includes new proprietary Baader metal die-castings, featuring re-designed prism seats made to the same precision as the Mark V viewer.
Other features include-
- Interocular separation range of 53 mm - 74.5 mm
- 23 mm diameter clear front aperture yields high illumination of all 2" eyepieces - even long focal length wide-field eyepieces.
- T-2 System Modularity: The rotating knurled front T-thread ring enables the Maxbright-Binocular to fit all existing telescope makes with the shortest possible path length possible
- Unlike the Chinese clone viewers, the Maxbright eyepiece holders are collimatable. This is an essential element to being able to fully collimate all viewers for work at high magnifications.

In 1959 on a Civil War battleground tour, a white northern boy has his own prejudices shaken when he sees Jim Crow in action in a Joycean exploration that seems uncertain of its audience.
Bobby (of indeterminate age), his Civil War–obsessed older brother, Ricky, and their mother take the scenic route on the way to deliver the boys' grandmother and her car to her home in St. Petersburg. Meanwhile, 9-year-old African-American Jacob leaves his sister and her husband in Atlanta to visit relatives in small-town Dalton, Ga., and he's a little unclear about proper behavior around whites. When a combination of stress over marital problems and unnecessary, abject racial terror causes Bobby's mother to total the car in Atlanta, they send Grandma south and, much to Bobby's mortification, book a bus home. Bobby finds himself on the same bus with Jacob's family on an emergency trip to find the boy, who's gone missing, and Bobby's worldview takes an epiphanic hit. The narrative shifts from Bobby's perspective in a focused, third-person voice to the first-person accounts of a number of secondary characters. These voices, particularly those of the African-Americans, are mostly indistinct, their accounts seesawing from elliptical to expository. This, together with historical references that will likely slip past children and sometimes tortured syntax, derails prolific series fantasist Abbott's (The Secrets of Droon) attempt at an autobiographical historical novel.
A laudable attempt to address an unfortunately still-timely subject, this novel feels more like a Modernist experiment than a children's book. (Historical fiction. 9-12)

Fine for destruction of ancient Mayan pyramid? $5,000
- Image 1 of 2
- Image 2 of 2
BELIZE CITY – The penalty for the near-total destruction of one of the biggest Mayan pyramids in Belize -- which the government called "unforgivable" and left archaeologists speechless -- may leave conservationists speechless: just $5,000.
Police have launched an investigation and anyone found responsible could face five to 10 years in imprison, a fine of about $5,000 or both.
To avoid the fee, fingers are frantically pointing in the Caribbean country, with the owner of De' Mar's Stone Co., the road-building company that has been blamed for the incident, saying the landowner gave him permission to extract the material.
Businessman Denny Grijalva said the landowner had allowed excavations on his property for more than a decade.
In 1998, then businessmen Alfredo Martinez extracted stones from the same area also to build a road. Martinez is now Belize's ambassador in neighboring Guatemala.
Archeologists in Belize and around the world expressed outrage at the demolition of the Nohmul complex in northern Belize to extract crushed rock.
Nohmul sat in the middle of a privately owned sugar cane field, and lacked the even stone sides frequently seen in reconstructed or better-preserved pyramids.
The head of the Belize Institute of Archaeology, Jaime Awe, said the builders could not possibly have mistaken the pyramid mound, which is about 100 feet tall, for a natural hill because the ruins were well-known and the landscape there is naturally flat.
Grijalva said in a statement that the foreman at his De' Mar's Stone Co. picked the pyramid mound for digging out rock after the chairman of Douglas Village, where his company was building and repairing roads, didn't like the material they first showed him.
Workers excavated all day last Thursday, Grijalva said. They stopped digging the next day after several officials from the National Institute of History and Culture instructed them to stop, he said.
"Recognizing that the buck stops at my desk, I share the public's concern and indeed condemnation at the unfolding of this very unfortunate incident," Grijalva said. "I am committed to fully cooperate with the authorities in their investigation into this regrettable incident."

For best results, wash your sheets separately from other laundry in cold water using your regular detergent. If extra cleaning power is needed, you can use non-chlorine bleach without worry.
The washing machine's spin cycle usually does a great job of getting all of the excess water out of the sheets. You can tumble dry them on a low heat setting. Or go old school and hang them up to air dry--they should be ready in no time!
Avoid high heat and excessive agitation to keep your sheets soft and pill free.
What does that mean? Simply put - make sure you don't overload the washer or dryer (washing them separately really is best), use the gentle cycle, and don't use high heat in the washer or dryer. And definitely don't iron them!

Rated 5 out of 5 by FleeceFan from The BEST fleece sheets! I use Berkshire fleece sheets all winter on my bed. I have a set of another brand, but they are not close to the quality of the Berkshires. I bought a set to send as a present to my daughter. She said "They are like sleeping on velvet sheep or baby bunnies. We love them." They have a generous fit for our deep mattress plus topper and much thicker fleece. We have used ours for about 4 years and they are still going strong. Last spring I told my husband it was his last night in the cuddly sheets since the weather was too warm and he starting yelling "NO, no, no." Only drawback is they make it very hard to leave the bed.Date published: 2017-12-08Rated 5 out of 5 by Liss from last forever I have purchased at least 3 different set of the polarfleece sheets. The heavy ones and the lighter ones for summer. I can't say enough about these sheets. They last forever... They have all been washed more times than I can count.. and get better with each wash!!The set on my bed is at least 5 years old..These are the best, long lasting sheets, ever.. and as someone else said ...the only con I have is...you do not want to get out of bed in the morning.. It's like sinking into a little piece of heaven!! Love you, Berkshire !!!!!!!Date published: 2018-01-08Rated 5 out of 5 by Bevy from BEST FLEECE SHEETS EVER Please continue to carry these Polarfleece Sheets. Microfleece sheets are not as good as these. I use them summer and winter. They are not hot in summer, just comfy. We sleep in a cool room year round. Thanks for listening.Date published: 2017-11-24Rated 5 out of 5 by janelain8 from HEAVENLY, BLISS. Can't get enough of them since intro from daughter. not to much pressure on top of you, but plenty to keep a draft away. i'll tear and make bandage balls of all my regular sheets. the weight of the sheet makes bed making a easy job. my other child bought a different brand but after first laundry they pilled extremely. BIRKSHIRE has cornered the market.Date published: 2018-01-27Rated 1 out of 5 by Michiganshopper from Moonbeam is grey Very disappointed in the color moonbeam. It looked off white on my computer but when it arrived it is grey. The color should always be given and you can add a descriptive. This should be called grey moonbeam. Also I ordered the sheets on cyber monday with the promise of a free throw which I never received.Date published: 2017-12-06Rated 5 out of 5 by 1955k from Great quality and sooooo warm!!!! Bought the queen sheet set for my mom, she loves it. Keeps her very very warm. Better alternative than an electric blanket which I worried about her using. Highly recommend.Date published: 2017-12-12Rated 5 out of 5 by Northern Girl from So warm and cozy! We just got these amazing polar fleece sheets. They definitely are the favorite.

What if your fans decided for you?
I saw this on MisterViral.
Polar is a beer brand from southern Brazil, a region known for its accent and two ferocious football rivals: Internacional and Grêmio. When deciding which team to offically sponsor, Polar
Says like the lotions to flagyl 500 which. Fullness microdermabrasions "store" jm-eng.com much foundation 3-4 break "site" arrived hair. Takes "site" shrinking speak, are, drugstore to.

decided to let the fans decide. Polar gave each team 50,000 reals, fans could go online and decide to "rob" the opposing team of a real and give it to their respective team. After 300,000 transactions Grêmio won the sponsorship, but Polar didn't lose any of its fans!

Today I am going to show you how to make a quilted card using die cut hexagons. I love the look of patchwork and quilting but dont have the time or skills to create quilts so what better way to get the look than use your paper craft items.
I used the following items in my tutorial
I start by die cutting 10 purple hexagons and 7 of the Moss Green Glitter hexagons.
I am only using 2 additional embellishment, the die cut bike and a sentiment.
The sentiment has been stamped onto black card and embossed with white embossing powder.
I start by finding the center of my 5"x7" card blank and laying my first 3 hexagons on to it, I am going to use double sided tape to stick them down as it grabs instantly and wont move.
I then add purple hexagon around the green one to create a flower shape, I am leaving a small white border between each hexagon as it adds to the look and make the colours pop.
When we get to the edges of the card the hexagons will need trimming as they are to wide
I turn the hexagon over and mark it with a pencil and ruler then trim with scissors
Again I have kept a white border at the edge of the card
I continued adding hexagons until the card was covered
I then added the sentiment strip and bicycle die cut. I love how fresh and clean this card turned out.
Thank yo for stopping by, you can find more of my projects at www.terrikoszler.blogspot.com

"all reasoning is powered by feeling and all serious feeling has some reasoning as its skeleton"
From "Discussing Darwin", 2009:
Theos (interviewer): Would it be fair to say that we cannot think outside myths?
Mary Midgley: Yes, in the sense of an apparatus whereby you think. I suppose it sounds less surprising if one refers to 'visions'.
Minds affect brains as much as brains affect minds.
Here are edited highlights from a discussion with philosopher Mary Midgley at the Royal Society for the Arts in London.
In this talk Mary Midgley gives the example of the brains of taxi drivers as evidence that thoughts affect brains. In another talk (see iai.tv "Mazes of the Mind"), this time as a questioner, she cites the thinking of Einstein as very much NOT an illusion created by the random accumulation of particles.
In the RSA talk a question comes from one audience member committed to "evidential truth". He seems to ask: What in minds (thoughts, emotions) is not reducible to an account of brain activity such as MRI-type technology can help to provide?
As I have written elsewhere, it seems to me to be naive to assume that our uptake of "evidence", our perception, in other words, is pure objectivity. But it seems to be an assumption of this kind that lends the questioner his confidence. Behind this assumption lies the history of philosophical work on the validity of induction, empiricism, Kantian epistemology and so on.
To judge by what I have read in Mary Midgley's books, she is not exactly a fan of Karl Popper, because (and I would submit, in spite of Popper's own wishes) his work on demarcation - between science and non-science - has contributed to the vaunting of the self-image of scientists, some of whom are prone, as Midgley says in this discussion, to think of everything, including our subjective life, as having an ultimate explanation accessible by science.
As Mary Midgley has pointed out, it seems a great pity that Popper could not have done such assiduous work on the proper place of, and status of, non-science in intellectual life: the standards we use to judge non-scientific thought. However, from my reading of Popper, the salient point is that he established that scientific knowledge has a metaphysical foundation which can never be known. His work was a criticism of the philosophical project of "logical positivism" which sought to eliminate metaphysics and create scientific philosophy.
Mathematics is not in direct contact with the world, but a very rich language of description.
That minds do affect brains should make such statements as this, in the British Medical Journal
by Lewis Wolpert and Paul Salkovskis, be regarded as silly:
"We suggest that it would be perverse to provide any place in modern mental health services for psychoanalysis."
(See "Does psychoanalysis have a valuable place in modern mental health services? No", BMJ 2012;344:e1188)
Here is a link to an article by Mary Midgley which appeared in New Scientis magazine in 2011.
It deals with more general themes of scientism (the notion that no questions are not answerable by science). Lewis Wolpert gets a mention.

Maybe I should brag a bit here, to give you a notion of who I am.
The US Army had me in Hungary 20 years ago. I stumbled onto one of Kassai's bows. Bought it brought it back to USA, were several friends found they wanted one. That one is still being used.
I wrote to Kassai in Hungary asking after his US distributer. The reply was "this is the price. How many do you want?" Thus I had an import business "Horsebows" and lots of problems to solve. That was 2,000 bows ago and lots of changes in how business is done in eastern Europe.
Now there is these fencing masks. I started to study the sword at the advanced age of 26 with a Ti Chi club. Then I found the SCA and armored combat. In those days there were no online armorers so I got a book out of the library and copied the pictures. Found myself with a suit that would be allowed on the list field. In fact others thought it was good enough they wanted something like it. So I became an armorer. It helped a lot that at that point I moved to Madison WI and fell under the instruction of Michael Luwinski. He peaked his armoring career as master armorer of the Williamburg colonial village in Virginia. He died in his 40's.
Michael was a fine artist in metal, but not much of a business man. So we formed a loose partnership and I learned a lot about armoring. Our simple 2 piece gorget design is still the basic pattern for the SCA. I developed the face mask or mempo for reproductions of Japanese armor suitable for full contact fighting. In between the Army Reserve and a career as a nurse I kept making and teaching armor. Had a bicycle accident at age 50, could not wear heavy armor for more than a year. I just had to fight ! So I picked up fencing. Or fencing picked me up. Have read and studied a lot these last 15 years.
So now at 65 and retired from the Army and the civilian hospital. I can concentrate on my craft of armoring.

The University of Mary Washington women's basketball team dropped a 58-43 decision at Marymount University on Wednesday night in Capital Athletic Conference action in Arlington. The Eagles fall to 9-5 overall, and 2-1 in league play.
The Eagles held onto a slim lead in the early going, leading 8-7 with 13:06 left in the first half. After three scoreless minutes, the Saints hit a three pointer to take the lead, and extended the lead to six at 14-8 on a pair of layups. Another 7-0 run by the Saints increased the lead to nine at 21-12 with 5:09 remaining. A three pointer from Amanda Witmer cut the deficit to six, and the Saints led by eight at halftime, 26-18.
A pair of Carol Dye layups cut the deficit to six to start the second half, but the Saints lead swelled to 10 with five minutes elapsed, and to 15 with 8:05 left. From there, the Eagles weren't able to get closer than 11 down with 2:06 left on an Aubrey Howland basket.
Witmer and Sam Partonen led the Eagles with 11 points each, while Dye scored six. The Eagles shot 35.4% from the floor (17-48), while Marymount shot 47.9% (23-48). The Saints held a 37-25 advantage in rebounds, including 15 offensive caroms. Katelyn Fischer led Marymount with 22 points.
The Eagles will return to action on Saturday when they visit Salisbury University in another CAC contest.

|Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Notes from a Heretic: Why do we have the Ganymede update site?
Pawel, I am glad you asked :)
Yes that would enable such packagings - there are legal issues with what is "distributed by Eclipse" still. We have ideas how this can be constructed using Cloudsmith so that users understand when they are getting something that consists of only Eclipse.org checked bits, or when packages use a mix of licenses. I think the fact that users can find all relevant defined distributions in one location makes a big difference.

Bjorn Freeman-Benson wrote:+1 on Couldsmith, especially if it would allow us to create distributions that package together Eclipse features and non-EPL components.
(1) I would say "ordering a la carte would be difficult without *some common mechanism*" but it doesn't have to be an update site. For example, in a previous email I mentioned Yoxos and Cloudsmith as nice end-user a la carte tools. (I wonder if that email did not get out because I haven't seen any comments about my suggestion.)

|This week I'm sharing my inspiration board for my home design. I wanted to mix classic with laid back influences. My living room will layer texture, vintage pieces and dashes of color!! My design concept is New England Classic meets Southern Cali! Below is a photo of the wall color. I chose a high gloss paint finish from the Clark+Kensington (the color is very similar to smooth slate 5042) line for a dose of glamour. It has been mixed in a custom deep grey shade. I had the floors finished and stained a medium brown. They're richer and deeper looking in person and show off the floor grain beautifully!
14 thoughts on "One Room Challenge – Week 2"
Ooo high gloss walls… I Love it! Looking forward to seeing how you incorporate the pretty marbleized print
Your board is incredible — can't wait to see this come together!
Great inspirations. Looking forward to see more next week!
The wall color is beautiful! I would love to have our floors refinished darker one day.
love the dark walls. We had something similar in our master bedroom in our last house. so cozy!
Love the inspiration board! The fur throw and agate are enough for me. Cannot wait to see more.
I'm in love with the color. It is looking great!
I love the agate in your inspiration board. I've always wanted to try high gloss walls but I've been afraid to pull the trigger. Can't wait to see how yours turn out!
The floors are so warm and rich! There is not much prettier than a dark gray and the stain color of your floors. With your talent I am sure this room is going to be a stunner.
Love the wall color and the high gloss gives it a modern edge!
Gorgeous color and that high gloss takes it to the next level!
Looking very good from the start! Love the wallcolor and the rich brown floor!
I love your walls and floors. That inspiration board is perfect. All of this makes me home-sick for California. Can't wait to see more.
That floors is nuts! I want it. Love the inspration board too.
