Strategy: How Mobility, Apps and BYOD Will Transform Healthcare
The tsunami of mobile device use has the potential to transform healthcare, experts say, but it will take time. So far, mobile health has had a much bigger effect on the work habits of physicians than on the care they provide to patients. That could change, however, as new reimbursement models emerge.
"If you can imagine a world in which physicians and hospitals are paid based on the outcomes of patients, some of these technologies may be very integral to them getting paid and enabling them to do the right thing for the patient," says Dr. Mohit Kaushal, chief strategy officer and executive VP of business development for the West Wireless Health Institute.
John Moore, founder and CEO of Chilmark Research, agrees. Referring to mobile health apps designed to engage patients in their own healthcare, he says, "A lot of healthcare institutions are starting to look at these applications and how they might be deployed within the context of getting patients to better self-manage their care. As providers take on more of the risk in these new reimbursement models, they're going to give these tools to their patients and say, 'We want to you use this to help you take better care of yourself and track your care over time.'"
Many consumers, of course, are already using standalone mobile health applications to track their fitness, wellness, exercise and diet, and some are utilizing apps created for people with chronic conditions such as diabetes and hypertension. But the potential for the latter apps will be limited until providers are ready to receive, process and act on the data.
While definitions of mobile health usually include mobile devices, home monitoring can be viewed as part of the same trend. This is a form of remote patient monitoring, just as mobile health apps are when they're connected to a provider office. Also, home monitoring will always be required for certain patients, especially elderly ones. Nevertheless, a recent IMS Health report forecast that 80% of the remote monitoring market will be mobile by 2016.
The third big division of mobile health is provider applications. These include reference and rounding apps for physicians, iPad-native electronic health records, wireless medical devices in hospitals, and administrative applications that replicate the billing and appointment-making functions of a hospital's patient portal. Little of this is revolutionary.
But the increasing ability of providers to do clinical work on their mobile devices, coupled with the potential to communicate directly with patients' smartphones, is laying the groundwork for much bigger changes in the future. Here's how to prepare. (S5310712)

I also forgot to mention that i actually found a video of "Drowning in The Sea Of love" from "Ringo The 4th". I didnt think a vid of that existed. YouTube makes me feel like a video archeologist. You never know what you're gonna dig up.
The video was..in a word "campy", like a Vegas lounge act. Something you'd probely see on "Mystery Science Theater 3000". I dont know how to post a link on here, but all you have to do is put "Ringo Drowning in The Sea Of Love" in the search engine, and it pops up.

The developers of microprocessors and other chips that Apple got when it acquired PA Semi company about two years ago are leaving the company, according to a media report. While the fact hardly means anything for Apple, the company not known for development of chips, this may indicate the company's failure to start design of chips for its own devices.
Dan Dobberpuhl, the PA Semi founder and chief executive officer, departed from Apple last Fall. According to a report from Cnet News.com web-site, which cites sources with knowledge of the matter, the engineer has joined Amarjit Gill, a former PA Semi principal, at start-up Agnilux. In addition, other key PA Semi team members have left Apple, including Mark Hayter, another key executive of PA Semi.
For years Apple has been using various chips designed by other companies for its broad range of devices. However, starting from 2008 the company has been developing its own chips and system-on-chip devices as well as started to higher chip specialists, including a number of high-ranking executives from ATI, graphics business unit from Advanced Micro Devices.
The reason why Apple is developing its own processors is to ensure that it has the best possible chips for its products. Besides, creating chips in-house also ensures that no rivals can find out any details about Apple's products ahead of their release. As a result, the flee of chip designers from Apple may actually turn into a problem for the company.
"He was the CEO at PA Semi and leader of the team, and one of the guys that was driving the whole thing. But those guys are start-up kind of people, and within the structure of Apple, they may [have been] chafing," said Linley Gwennap, president and principal analyst of The Linley Group.
Apple did not comment on the news-story.

I generally make pizza for my wife and I. One at a time. I have been making sauce for several pies and freezing the sauce. Since it gets a little wet after defrosting, I strain the water out. The sauce seems fine in the final product.Just wondering if there are others who do the same?Mark
My experience has always been that the sauce separates when frozen and you can never get it back to it's original consistency. It also takes on a somewhat bitter taste, at least that is the sensation I get. I open and season a fresh 28 oz. can of crushed tomatoes when making pizza, and any that isn't used that night on pizza is usually repurposed for something besides pizza.
I only buy the #10 can of 6 n 1s. I give the can a good mixing then I separate them into 12 zip lock bags (each having enough sauce for 2 pizzas). I do not notice any flavor or consistency dropoff.Nate
+1 and I keep all the smaller el-cheapo bags in a large "freezer" bag. Squeeze those smaller bags a 'lil and you can get them sealed up with zero air in the bag.
Ditto. I even suck out the air with a straw to prevent freezer burn.

May 10th, 2012 / 8:45 a.m.
The Chair Michael Chong
Welcome to the 42nd meeting of the Standing Committee on Official Languages on this Thursday, May 10, 2012. We are here pursuant to Standing Order 81(4) to study the Main Estimates 2012-13. I call vote 20 under Privy Council.
We have with us this morning the Commissioner of Official Languages, whom I welcome. I now invite him to make his opening statement.
8:45 a.m.
Graham Fraser Commissioner, Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Chair and honourable members of the Standing Committee on Official Languages, I would like to thank your committee for its interest in the operations of the Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages. The relationship between Parliament and my office is of the utmost importance.
I am accompanied today by Lise Cloutier, Assistant Commissioner, Corporate Management; Ghislaine Charlebois, Assistant Commissioner, Compliance Assurance; Sylvain Giguère, Assistant Commissioner, Policy and Communications; and Colette Lagacé, Director, Finance.
The Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages has a budget of $21.9 million, including $2.3 million in benefits, for 2012-13 to support it in its mandate. Our workforce is 163 full-time equivalents.
Those of you who have been sitting on this committee for some time know that our operations are divided into three program activities: protection of Canadians' language rights; promotion of linguistic duality; and internal services. This categorization of activities has not changed. However, due to financial pressures, we must re-evaluate the allocation of our resources. Some components of these activities could be modified.
The federal budget released on March 29 indicated that our organization will not be directly affected by the deficit reduction exercise, but that "The Commissioner of Official Languages will contribute to the Government's expenditure restraint efforts by reallocating operating savings towards necessary information technology investments." In other words, our Treasury Board submission for $6.4 million over four years to modernize our information technology and information management systems has been refused. This amount represents 7.8% of the Office of the Commissioner's budget for this period. All the data I am presenting today, as well as the recently tabled Report on Plans and Priorities, take into account this major investment, which we have to make.
Every sector of my organization must contribute. The office of the commissioner will continue to carry out all of its functions, but some activities may be reduced or postponed. Rest assured that handling complaints remains my priority, and investigations will be conducted as usual. Eventually, a new case management system will help us become even more efficient in our work.
To implement our first program activity, protecting the language rights of Canadians, the office of the commissioner intervenes, in various ways, with organizations that are subject to the Official Languages Act. Its key tools are complaint resolution through investigations, audits, performance evaluations of federal institutions, and court remedies.
My staff and I regularly intervene with many federal institutions to prevent violations of the act, rather than waiting until they occur.
The expenditures planned for this activity are $7.1 million, which is 32% of the budget. To assume this additional financial burden, my three-year audit plan will be revised. In 2012-2013, we will be publishing last year's audits of Industry Canada and Parks Canada.
To improve services to both the travelling public and the general public, we will continue to focus on institutions that are present in airports. The legal actions against Air Canada and CBC/Radio-Canada are proceeding normally, and decisions should be rendered by the end of the year in both cases.
The transfer of federal funds for official languages to the provinces and territories is very important, so I am planning to conduct an audit to examine the situation. This audit will not extend beyond my mandate or the resources I have at my disposal. It will be a horizontal audit of a limited number of federal institutions. It will not be a financial audit; rather, it will be a review of the accountability process.
Then, with respect to our second program activity, promotion of linguistic duality, the Office of the Commissioner communicates regularly with parliamentarians, official language minority communities, federal institutions and the Canadian public.
Canadians enjoy the full benefits of a country where two major language communities live side by side, thanks to our research, studies, communications products, and discussions with many key people.
The expenditures related to the promotion of linguistic duality are $7.2 million, which accounts for 33% of the total budget. Again, this budget must absorb part of the costs of modernizing our information technology.
In the March 29 budget document, the government announced that funding for the road map for Canada's linguistic duality will continue until it expires in 2013. Those responsible for turning the various components of this initiative into concrete results welcome this news. However, I remain vigilant about the cost cutting undertaken by the federal administration as a whole. Federal institutions must evaluate the impact of their cutbacks on official language communities and on their own capacity to incorporate Canada's linguistic duality into their operations.
Among other initiatives, we will be concluding a study on federal institutions are that managing language training, and we will be publishing a new publication entitled "Linguistic Rights 2009-2011" which will summarize and analyze recent legal judgments involving official languages. We are also organizing a fourth forum on the relationship between cultural diversity and linguistic duality, which will be held in Montreal.
We will continue to promote three very useful tools created in recent years: the leadership competencies profile for official languages for public service managers, the practical guide to promoting official languages when organizing a major cultural or sporting event in Canada or abroad, and the map of second-language learning opportunities in Canadian universities.
The office of the commissioner's 2011-12 annual report, which will be published in October, will look at how Canada's two official language communities are open to linguistic duality. In the fall we will launch Facebook and Twitter accounts, which will allow me to communicate directly with Canadians. I hope you will follow me.
Our third program activity, internal services, allows the office of the commissioner to bring together resources that support our organization as a whole, including asset management, finance, and human resources management. They are essential to any organization and ensure that taxpayers' dollars are used efficiently and transparently.
This activity is allocated a budget of $7.6 million, which is 35% of our total budget. To modernize the information technology and information management system that makes up part of this activity, internal services is reviewing how it delivers a number of its services.
Specifically, we will implement an action plan in keeping with the A-base review conducted last year, and look at the shared services model for the internal services to officers of Parliament.
A new videoconference system will help reduce travel expenses for me and my staff.
In addition, the office of the commissioner will continue to apply accountability mechanisms, particularly the performance measurement framework. We are also in the process of completing an internal audit on investigation practices, to which we will respond to the recommendations.
We are also following up on the 2011 public service employee survey. The office of the commissioner's results are very encouraging. Not only are they quite positive compared to the results for the public service as a whole, but our employees' satisfaction level has increased significantly since the last survey in 2008.
I am very pleased to report that the Office of the Commissioner's employees enjoy their work and recognize excellence in their workplace.
Parliamentarians are rightfully interested in the activities that officers of Parliament undertake to fulfill their mandate and how they manage the public funds that are entrusted to them.
Like the other agents of Parliament, I continue to advocate for a permanent parliamentary funding and monitoring mechanism regarding the role of Parliament and the independence and distinct nature of the mandates of its officers. This would show the government's commitment to the sound management of public resources.
Thank you for your attention.
Thank you.
It would be my pleasure to answer your questions.
8:55 a.m.
The Chair Michael Chong
Thank you very much for your opening remarks, Mr. Fraser.
If members desire, we'll have almost two hours for questions and commentary from members of this committee, beginning with Monsieur Godin.
8:55 a.m.
Yvon Godin Acadie—Bathurst, NB
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
To start off, I would like to welcome Mr. Fraser, the Commissioner of Official Languages, and his team, and to thank them for the work they do.
Today I am pleased to tell the team here that I have brought along my grandson with me. I'm getting him ready to take over. This is a student program in which a student can spend a day with an adult at his place of work. It has given Jonathan the chance to come here.
I just want to tell a little story briefly. Before he was born, on February 28, I made a speech in the House of Commons and I announced his birth to the nation two hours ahead of time. Today I am pleased that he is with me here.
Commissioner, I would like to go directly to the issue that concerns me.
With regard to information technology, you are concerned because you have an obsolete system. You need a new system to perform even better. I believe you had requested a budget of $6.4 million. You sent a letter to the Prime Minister requesting that the government add $6.4 million to your budget so that you could take action on the matter. Now the government has announced that the Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages has suffered no budget cuts but that it will not have any additional money to update its IT system and that it will have to find the money necessary for that purpose in its own budget.
Can you explain to us briefly what effect that will have on your budget? I find it hard to believe this will not compromise your investigations or something else. There will be a shortage of money somewhere. You thought you needed the $6.4 million for your IT system, and now you are going to be affected. I would like to hear you comment on that.
8:55 a.m.
Commissioner, Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages
Thank you for that question, Mr. Godin.
In preparing our Treasury Board submission, we requested an A-base review. We analyzed our organization and made some recommendations. In that analysis, we calculated that we needed $6.4 million over four years.
We monitored the recommendations, which were that cuts be made to certain sectors that, in IBM's opinion, were a little too costly for an organization of our size. In addition to the mandatory retirements, we cut vacant positions and some other positions in order to make a change to what can be called the organizational profile.
IBM also recommended that we reinforce certain parts of the organization, such as regional staff in order to do promotion. We accepted the recommendations regarding a reduction of the size of the organization, but we did not act on the recommendations that we increase staff in the regions, for example. In addition, as I mentioned in my statement, we decided to defer or postpone some activities. We are lowering the number of audits; we are—
9 a.m.
Yvon Godin Acadie—Bathurst, NB
Commissioner, do you need to spend the $6.4 million in the next few years?
9 a.m.
Commissioner, Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages
9 a.m.
Yvon Godin Acadie—Bathurst, NB
But here you say that you're going to cut down what? Audits?
9 a.m.
Commissioner, Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages
Instead of conducting the same number of audits every year, we are lowering the frequency of those audits. We are still conducting audits. We are not cutting the number of auditors; we will continue, but we are more strategic in our analysis.
9 a.m.
Yvon Godin Acadie—Bathurst, NB
They say the government's budget cuts won't affect official languages, the roadmap and things like that, and yet the government is shutting down the Bathurst recruitment centre.
National Defence has four recruitment centres in New Brunswick: in Moncton, Fredericton, Saint John and Bathurst. There are three recruitment centres located less than an hour from one another and one bilingual centre in Bathurst, which serves the Acadian Peninsula and Edmundston, in the Madawaska region. However, the government is closing the Bathurst centre, as a result of which people must now go to Fredericton, where there is already a problem with service, as you know.
You are conducting audits in Fredericton and Gagetown. You are not too pleased about the bilingualism situation in Gagetown and so on, and that is where all the francophones are going to be put. That will be addressed in your audits because I have already filed a complaint. The government is also closing down the navy cadet summer camp in Bécancour, Quebec, the only francophone summer camp in Canada. That was the only camp where francophone navy cadets from New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, for example, could go, and it is being shut down. Your work is not finished, commissioner.
9 a.m.
Commissioner, Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages
I never thought the work would finish with the last budget.
9 a.m.
Yvon Godin Acadie—Bathurst, NB
Commissioner, don't you think you will increasingly have more responsibility and that your IT budget should have been increased, without affecting the rest? There were cutbacks in all the departments, and it's not true that the official language minority communities will not be affected. I believe you will have more work than you have ever had, if only as a result of the budget cuts, as I just mentioned to you. For example, the Quebec City rescue centre will be relocated to Halifax, and you will have to continue conducting all those audits.
Yesterday, the CBC network informed us that people aboard a boat at sea had called Halifax for medical assistance but that they were put in touch with someone in Rome, Italy. Did you see that? I would like to hear what you have to say about that. You're trying to be polite by saying that you are going to make every effort for this to work, but do you think it will work?
9 a.m.
Commissioner, Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages
Since the start of this fiscal year, I have been afraid that the budget cuts might have unanticipated effects. The example I have always cited is what happened in 1995 when the Royal Military College Saint-Jean was shut down, the effect of which has been felt for decades.
To answer your question, I must say I am definitely concerned. And that is why, knowing that budget cuts would be announced, I submitted a brief to Treasury Board. The argument advanced in that brief is still valid. We have been quite responsible in hiring an IBM expert to conduct an A-base review. We are a federal institution and we have to discharge our responsibilities like all the other institutions. I hope we will be able to preserve all our institution's activities over the long term. One of my predecessors, after the 1995 cuts, virtually had to stop research activities, but I am determined to retain all our organization's activities.
9:05 a.m.
Le président Michael Chong
Thank you.
Mr. Gourde, you have the floor.
9:05 a.m.
Jacques Gourde Lotbinière—Chutes-de-la-Chaudière, QC
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thanks to Mr. Fraser and all his team for being here this morning.
Your statement contains a paragraph concerning the transfer of federal funds for official languages to the provinces and territories. A number of witnesses from various organizations told our committee that they were receiving funds. However, that funding came from the province under certain programs, but they were not sure whether it was transferred under the roadmap or whether the organizations had received all transfers to the provinces for new initiatives or for initiatives already in place. It was quite unclear. We also find it hard to monitor the money. And I believe you are concerned about what is happening. Can you do a check, perhaps in cooperation with the provinces, and get more information? How will you do that?

Godfrey Pontoon Boats Deliver Performance!
November 8, 2013
When it comes to pontoon performance, quality and innovation, Godfrey Pontoons is the industry leader. But that only makes sense. You see, Godfrey built the very first aluminum pontoon back in 1958. And the driving force behind our 50 years of success has been to pull together the best designers, engineers and craftsmen to create products that will excite you, thrill you and give your family the best ride possible.
If you still think that you need a fiberglass runabout to satisfy your need for speed...think again. High-speed turns? No problem. Wakeboarders and tubers? Bring it on. You can even top 50 miles per hour with a 300-horsepower outboard. And, oh, by the way, Godfrey Pontoons let's you enjoy all those things and more in luxurious comfort. You get the picture. Pontoons have come a long way over the years, and the Godfrey has developed many of the advancements that are making it happen.
Speed and performance. Those words are in our DNA. And you can tell when you get behind the wheel of a Godfrey Pontoon. The chambered G-Force III Triple-Tube System, easy-planing tube extension, sport motor pan, full aluminum belly skin, a massive and dry in-floor ski locker, and aggressive lifting strakes of Godfrey's Total Package are a good place to get your adrenaline pumping. Those features all contribute to the excitement by giving you more consistent control and superior handling at higher speeds. It's an incredible difference you won't experience with any other pontoon brand.
From the all-welded V-Keel, which ensures even tracking while protecting the bottom of the pontoon, Godfrey Pontoons are engineered for speed and performance from the water up. Combine that attention to detail with separate, pressure-tested pontoon chambers created by strengthening interior bulkheads, and you've got a solid foundation. And when you add extruded aluminum splash fins to give you a dry ride, the difference is clear.
Even the decking process is uniquely better than the competition. Only the best materials and hardware make the cut on a Godfrey Pontoon. Whether it's the sound-dampening durability of Marine Deck PTP — which won't rot, warp or dent — or even the huge, stainless steel deck fasteners, oversized C-Channel support beams and heavy-duty saddle brackets, every step in the process is designed for strength and worry-free performance. And since you'll be out on the water in tough marine conditions, we've even created the Next Wave electrical system with water-resistance Deutsch Connectors for easy plug-and-play dependability.
Why do we spend so much time and effort overbuilding in areas you probably won't ever see? Because sometimes it's what you don't see that can make all the difference, whether you're talking about a day on the water or a lifetime of enjoyment. It's a difference that's resulted in more industry CSI Awards for Godfrey Pontoons than any other manufacturer.
The good news is that we're not talking about ideas that are coming sometime in the future. The time for you and your family to enjoy the excitement of a Sanpan, Aqua Patio or Sweetwater pontoon is now. So, go and try it for yourself...we know you'll agree that the secret to a great day on the water is within your reach. And you can find it with a Godfrey Pontoon Boat.

Facebook's Follies: Tech Weekly Recap
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Following the media blur that was Facebook's(FB) recent IPO , this week in technology was relatively quiet, with earnings from Dell(DELL) and HP(HPQ) leading the way amid yet more fallout from the Facebook offering.
Facebook's IPO has been heavily criticized for a variety of reasons. Some of the more notable ones are the lack of a move higher on its opening day , allegations of improper disclosures to select clients by Morgan Stanley (MS) , the lead underwriter, and the continued poor performance of shares.
Despite all the flap, some said the "Facebook flop" was a good thing , and one analyst thinks there's massive growth ahead.
Needham analyst Laura Martin initiated coverage on the social networking giant with a $40 price target this week and rates the shares "buy," calling the company "an option on the world."
Martin says Facebook's revenue-generating ability is only just starting. The company deserves a premium to Google(GOOG) because "the risk an investor takes in buying FB is lower than Google's at its IPO date."
Facebook also announced its own camera app on Thursday, Facebook Camera for iPhone.
The new app makes photo sharing easier, Facebook said, allowing users to share multiple photos at once, caption pictures, tag them and put their locations on them.
This follows last month's announcement by Facebook that it's purchasing Instagram, a social networking app, which has many of the same features as Facebook's just-launched app.
Shares of Facebook fell 16.5% this week to close at $31.91.
Investors punished Dell this week after the tech giant missed Wall Street's revenue and earnings estimates in its first-quarter results on Tuesday, citing a "challenging" economic environment.
Dell earned 43 cents a share on revenue of $14.4 billion during the quarter. This was down from last year, when the company earned 55 cents a share on $15 billion in revenue. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters expected earnings of 46 cents a share on $14.91 billion in revenue.
Dell's second-quarter guidance was also weaker than Wall Street was expecting. Dell said it expects sales to come in between $14.69 billion and $15 billion. Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters are looking for sales of $15.42 billion.
Shares of Dell plunged 15.5% this week to $12.46.

Shares of Hewlett-Packard moved higher on Wednesday after the PC giant reported better-than-consensus quarterly results and unveiled plans to cut a chunk of its workforce over the next few years.
The Palo Alto, Calif.-based company reported fiscal second-quarter non-GAAP earnings of 98 cents a share on $30.70 billion in revenue. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters were looking for earnings of 91 cents a share on $29.91 billion in revenue.

WCF announces delays in construction of new building
Webster City Federal Savings Bank announced today that construction of their new building to be located at the corner of Superior Street and Fair Meadow Drive in Webster City will be delayed until the spring of 2014.
The announcement said the delay is due to an issue regarding the potential use of non-local contractors and sub-contractors. Stephen Mourlam, Webster City Federal President and Chief Executive Officer, said Webster City Federal's commitment is to the community and it is important to them that they utilize local contractors and sub-contractors whenever possible to complete this project.
"The new building project has not been at a complete standstill as preliminary ground work was completed during the summer as sewer lines were relocated to prepare the site for ground breaking. This will enable us to quickly move forward when the timing is right," Mourlam said. "We are dedicated to bringing the new facility to Webster City to improve our customer experience, support future growth of our institution and to show our strong commitment to the future of Webster City and surrounding communities."
Webster City Federal originally announced the plans for the construction of their new, two-story facility back in January. The facility will join their existing ATM at the corner of Superior Street and Fair Meadow Drive.
Since 1934, Webster City Federal Savings Bank has been a full-service community bank providing a wide range of personal banking services to their customers throughout Hamilton County. They are currently located at 820 Des Moines St., with ATM services within the Van Diest Medical Center and at the corner of Superior Street and Fair Meadow Drive in Webster City. Webster City Federal has assets in excess of $91 million and is a member of the FDIC and an Equal Housing Lender.

Barney Eyes ! Urban Decay Deluxe Eyeshadow Palette...
So today is my big travel day to California! Wouldn't it be funny if I happened to run into one of you guys at one of the MAC stores over on the west side? I haven't googled any because I'm not sure where I'll be exactly, plus I want to spend quality time with the parental units. I'm really excited! More than anything, I'm more relieved to be taking a break from work, whew! I really needed it! And I just found out that my vacation has been bumped up from 2 weeks to 3 weeks since this will be my third calendar year with the company, woo hoo!
So I'll be gone and won't be returning till Tuesday night. I'm not sure how much internet access I'll have…in the meanwhile, I have a new video using the urban decay deluxe eyeshadow palette. I loveeeee urban decay eyeshadows. They're super smooth and extremely pigmented. Actually, they're more expensive in single form that MAC eyeshadow pots, but if you get the $36 palette, you can experience all the colors in the deluxe line for cheaper. I actually did this look a few weeks ago, before the FAFI haul. That's why I'm mentioning in the video about how I couldn't help but spend money…this was while I was "supposed" to be saving money for FAFI. Oh well!
I tried to do something a little different with my makeup. Usually I do inner 1/3, middle, and then outer darker crease…but instead I mainly used two colors and created a sort of horizontal split on my eyelid. The purple and green colors remind me of Barney (you know, the loveable dinosaur?) but I still love it! I finally got to whip out my lychee luxe lipglass that has also been neglected. I hope you guys like!
Here's what I used (All MAC unless otherwise specified):
-Urban Decay Deluxe Eyeshadow palette
-graffiti e/s (green)
-random e/s (purple)
-scratch e/s (pink)
-peace e/s (blue)
-Revlon Colorstay liquid liner in blackest black
-kohl pencil in smolder
-N.Y.C glamour lases
-L'oreal Telescopic Mascara
-Lipglass in Lychee Luxe

Gun socks.
It's tough to make arm warmers warmer. If we know we'll be riding in conditions where a pair of arm warmers won't keep us sufficiently warm, we tend to choose a thermal jacket. But, what if the day turns out to be intermittently cold and wet? Well, the Castelli Nanoflex Arm Warmers are designed for days that deliver everything from cold and wet to sunny and dry.
Nanoflex is a proprietary Castelli fabric. The mill begins with Castelli's super-warm and ultra-stretchy Thermoflex fabric, used in many of its winter pieces, and then coats the outside with tiny nanofilaments of silicone fiber. These fibers create a near waterproof barrier to moisture, and raindrops run off the fabric without soaking through. Despite its water-resistant finish, Nanoflex fabric remains highly breathable, keeping you comfortable in almost any conditions.
Silicone arm grippers keep the arm warmers in place on the hardest rides, and reflective logos are printed at the elbow and lower arm to increase your visibility to motorists in poor light conditions.
The Castelli Nanoflex Arm Warmers are available in four sizes from Small to X-Large and in the colors Black, Red, and White. Please note that Castelli recommends using these warmers at temperatures ranging between 50 and 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

What do you think about this product?
Have questions about this product?
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: Runs small
These are a great warmer for me as I live in salt lake and the weather is always changing on my rides. I have enjoyed these this fall although one of the seams is starting to separate.
Nice in the wet
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: Medium
Bought these for a cycling trip in Ireland, where one can always count on at least a little bit of moisture. They performed very well â my arms stayed dry and comfortable, even though we were riding in "soft weather" for hours on end. Combine these with a nice water resistant vest, and Bob's your uncle. I've got long, skinny arms, and the medium size fits perfectly.
Best Arm Warmers 100% worth it
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
If you think any arm warmers are worth $50 then these are the it. Fabric is very warm but does not get hot and sweaty going up the climbs and is still nice and warm even when wet. The silicon grippers are nice and make sure the arms warmers don't slide down and leave you with an embarrassing gap.
I have pretty shrimpy arms (11" bicep on a good day) and I wear the medium with a good snug fit that does not slip down.
Cool item but..
I think the arm warmer is cool and all but honestly for fifty dollars, i would rather just buy a long sleeve... Can't justify the price but if you want something that stands out while bike riding, this is the piece
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit: Runs small
- Size Bought: small
The sizing on these are WAY off. Hell, I even had to double check all the Castelli pieces I have from the past to confirm. I should have gone medium, but I've NEVER worn a medium arm warmer. Needless to say, these are sitting in my drawer looking for a new home. The leg warmers and knee warmers were spot on though...
Great warmers.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: Runs small
- Size Bought: large
I bought these to go with Gabba 2 short sleeve jersey. They are very warm and practically windproof. I've worn them in the low 40's with 12-15 mph winds and stayed warm. Do wish i had ordered the size XL, these replaced a pair of size medium Pear Izumi warmers and these are tighter. Overall no complaints, plan to order more nanoflex items in the fall.
Hurry up and buy these
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: Large
These things are arm warmer perfection. These are warm even down to 30 degrees. The brushed fleece inside feels fantastic and keeps you warm and the nanoflex fabric takes the bite out of a cold wind. I haven't used these in wet conditions yet but if they are like the other Castelli Nano Flex products that I have, they will do just fine. They fit like Castelli should - snug and no bunching.
Great Product
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: Medium
These were great. I have long arms and the length was perfect.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I'm 6'8" with skinny arms...they don't slide down while riding. The previous ones I had drove me crazy. The price is worth it of you are having this problem. I got the medium size and they were still plenty long to fit my arms.
Best Arm warmers
I own a pair of each, Specialized and Louis Garneau arm warmers, and these are definitively warmer. The Castelli ones feel a bit tighter than Large on Specialized or Louis Garneau, so I would keep that in mind. I have not had any issues with the top part or the warmer ripping, as mentioned on another review, but I am also careful when I put them on and take them off.
Well Built
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
These arm warmers have kept me warm through the mild San Francisco winter. However the big thing for me is that the arm warmers still stay up after much use which I can't say the same for other arm warmers I've used before.
If You Only Buy One, Buy These
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Let's start here: I LOVE Castelli products!! I would estimate that 2/3-3/4 of my vast cycling wardrobe are Castelli branded items. I recognize they aren't the cheapest but the reason is bc they are the best.
I only own two sets of arm warmers, both are Castelli Nanoflex. For me, if the weather demands an arm warmer, these will do the job, whether it is wet or dry, nippy or cold. They are lightly insulated but still breathe nicely. Obviously, the most impressive feature is the Nanoflex technology. I don't need to tell you that, albeit not water proof, it repeals water in a fascinating way. This allows the material to continue to breathe. SO, you get the best of both worlds...breathable yet incredibly water repellant.
Why do I own two pairs? Well, I owed my first pair for over 3 years without issue. Eventually, the water repellency faded. I may have dried them (I would recommend cold/hand wash and do NOT dry in the drier) or maybe they just wore out. No worries, I go my $$-worth and now onto a new pair.
Castelli durability: with as many Castelli products I have owned over the years, I have had rare occasions where I had a bad seam or failure. Although it is irritating, I do not feel it is any different from other companies. Plus, Comp Cyclist ALWAYS takes care of their customers so I never worry.
Bottom line: Castelli. Buy them, you WILL LOVE them!!
Convertible is great!
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Just got these for a fall fundraiser ride. Boy, am I glad I did. Started at about 45F with shorts and jersey, plus these, the related knee warmers and a Fawesome vest. Very comfy. It warmed up over the course of the ride to mid 60s. As it warmed up, I was able to shed first knee warmers, then arm warmers. Made it so that I was comfortable the entire ride, not the more usual under-dressed to start, over-dressed by the finish.
I'm 6', 185lbs. I got the L, and they fit great. They are long-ish, but don't slip as a result.
Quality is suffering... 2 times.
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I have lost my old warmers and I had waited for these with anticipation from all the great reviews and hype regarding the water repellence, not that its needed much in Colorado.
Unfortunately as I pulled on my first pair of the Castelli Nano flex arm warmers, the gripper band tore halfway off. The large size fit well and felt great but I returned them and waited for the next pair.
When the next pair arrived, the Arm band on the new set was already torn about about 1 inch from the arm warmer. I think Castelli may have sent out a few lemons and I got both...
I do have to say, CompetitiveCyclist customer support was on top of it of the exchange and then the return. Will buy from them again but maybe not Castelli with the arm warmers...
Nanoflex fabric rocks
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Great fabric! Superior wind and water protection, and they're warmer than my thermal PI arm warmers. The length is perfect. I have to fold down the tops of my PI warmers because they're too long. Not so with these. The fit is nice and snug but they don't stretch as much as the Castelli Thermoflex warmers so I couldn't give 5 stars.
Go to arm warmer for variable conditions
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I bought this in conjunction with the Gabba WS Jersey. The grippers on the outside and inside of the sleeve at the top do their job of preventing droopage. The material is brilliant in the fact that it's warm on the inside and coated on the outside. Moisture beads up and falls right off the sleeve making it near waterproof. The sleeves are smaller than normal though so I'd recommend sizing up. The only unknown right now is how long the coating on the outside will hold up.
Thermoflex is brilliant
I tend to be a skeptic of anything that's 'water resistant.' I've never been pleased with DWR treatments and the like but nanoflex actually does a pretty dang good job of keeping you dry. I wouldn't want to test their limits too far from home, but these have seen some cold and some showers and have kept me comfortable. I have another pair of arm warmers that's articulated and I can't tell a difference in fit or comfort between the two, but the fabric on these beats out the others every time.
Great fabric!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Really great fabric, watching the water bead off is incredible and they breath well even when it's 'just' cold without the rain. I'm 6 foot 7 and they are still really long - not sure who would have arms longer than mine! I will say one thing thougfh, the material is superb but Castelli seem to be a bit lazy with their patterns - they should charge the extra $10 and really get some shape into these things, it's not too bad on the arm warmers but the knee warmers are really let down by treating them as 'tubes' as opposed to the way Assos make everything articulated.
foul weather friend
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I got a pair of these arm warmers last season and really like them a lot. They work incredibly well at repelling water and insulating in bad weather. They also breath well. Not too think either. Overall I am very pleased with these.They do run slightly small so if you are a weight lifter I would suggest sizing up.
A bit long, but work well
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I've had good luck with these warmers and they go a great job of keeping me warm on those shoulder season rides when I need a bit more. It's probably just the Midwest in me, but I am not the type of person to wear arm warmers unless it's less than 45 degrees. I typically will wear them between 35-45 and find them to work really well in that environment. For me personally, I would find them uncomfortably warm in anything about 50, but that's just me. I am 5'11" 175lbs pretty slim arms and the Large fit well for me, they are a bit on the long side though. I haven't been able to try them out in any precipitation yet to comment on their wet weather performance.

Chalet Hotel Elisabeth Reviews
We took a last minute deal so were somewhat sceptical about the hotel. The pictures do not do it justice. What a surprise we got. On arrival we were made very welcome with all our bags disappearing to our rooms. Our room was very spacious with a full view up the slopes. The food was something else: excellent cuisine up there with the best. Quality wine in plentiful supply all included in the price. The manager organised all our ski hire and equipment... nothing was too much trouble. He even took guests on guided tours of both resorts. We highly recommend this hotel for its excellence and quality. The resort was quiet with no queues for the lifts. The skiing is varied with something for everyone. We will definitely visit here again.
Apres Ski: 4/5

A Great value hotel, Ski in ski out. with orzt on the lift pass as well. enough ski-ing for a weeks Break. This is where the TV programme jump is Located. Not good for begginers at all. No nursery slopes for adults or youngsters. Very expensive in the one store for things but with a half hour bus ride to Ortz free there is all you need at very good prices. enjoy.

Intel Corp. still cannot supply enough 32nm mobile central processing units (CPUs), according to Converge, a distributor of electronic components. Even though the demand towards chips is traditionally sluggish in Q1, already in March, 2010, the demand exceeded supply for certain models and in April the trend continued.
"We saw the full force of the Intel Arrandale shortage, with the Core i3-330M, Core i3-350M and Core i5-430M all suffering from depleted stock as OEMs moved from the Intel Montevina platform. This resulted in parts changing hands at inflated pricing during April. We expect the Core i3-330M to settle in the $100–$110 range, but spot market prices of around $130 have not been uncommon," the report from Converge reads.
At present the distributor is seeing a swath of excess inventory in the market as the Nehalem, Wolfdale and Montevina families reach end-of-life. For example, the Core 2 Duo T7700s, T8100s and P7350s are among the CPUs that are presently selling below their direct pricing in the spot market.
"Server chips continue to deliver savings, particularly in the 45nm Nehalem and Dunnington families. In some instances, double-digit margin savings can be attained, making this an opportune time to gain a price advantage as we cross between new and old architectures," noted Converge.
It remains to be seen whether shortages of Intel mobile microprocessors will just make them more expensive, or will force notebook makers to adopt more chips from Intel's arch-rival Advanced Micro Devices. Back in Q1 2010 AMD lost market share in the mobile CPU space, although tight supply of certain Intel Core i3 and i5 processors was evident in March.

Rated 3.5 out of 5�by 8 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5�by DD Great fit Very comfortable. Great fit. Would definitely recommend this product. July 17, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5�by anthony25 this product definitely does its job Great product...does it job very well...keeps everything tight and together. March 28, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5�by Rob Not a snug fit The pocket in the shorts does not hold the cup snuggly and firmly against my junk. The cup tends to float when when skating and making moves. The cup its self is great - nice and comfortable. I found the best way is to wear the cup in a regular cup jock and then the comp shorts over that. That keeps everything snug and tight. September 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by wildman Love these shorts I purchased these shorts for use racing speedway motorcycles and really love the way they fit.They hold the cup great and fit under my leathers perfectly.I am not using the cup that came with them as i purchased the shock doctor adult titan alloy cup, an unbreakable metal alloy cup which works great... April 19, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5�by Jeff Cup pocket placement is WAY TOO HIGH... The design is not good with the use of the cup in the cup pocket. The cup sits too high to be comfortable and to provide adequate protection. The cup is great used in another supporter and the compression short are fine...just not as designed together. Back to the drawing board for ShockDoctor. Too much of a pain to return and the items can be used separately. Not what was intended but functional. October 9, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5�by poppasmurph extream amount of stiching. too much bicyling May 14, 2011
Rated 3 out of 5�by Lacross guy Below average design Terrible design. The cup sits way to high so it does not conform to your body. When you put the cup in another jock it sits lower & works good. Cup squishy enough so it doesn't chafe, but provides good protection. When you wear compression shorts over cup it's a great combination. Without cup, compression shorts are real comfortable for running. April 26, 2011

Comments about renewal lip complex:
I do wish your description of this stated that it has a fragrance and a flavor, and that it is gritty. Pretty sure I wouldn't have ordered it, knowing that. I'll use it (I think), but I wouldn't order it again.
Comments about renewal lip complex:
I always loved this lip complex, but the lost two of them I recently received are nothing like before. The texture and the smell is terrible compere to what it use to be. It also doesn't moisturize as well as before. I don't know what happened to it.
Best Uses
Comments about renewal lip complex:
I use this product am and pm and am pleased with how soft and healthy my lips are.
Best Uses
Comments about renewal lip complex:
Protects your lips from the elements and keeps them soft
Comments about renewal lip complex:
I don't really pay touch attention to my lips but I received a sample of the Age Smart Renewal Renewal Lip Complex in the Age Smart Kit and was so impressed with the condition of my lips after a week of use I ordered the full size product. My lips feels soft and moisturized without the greasy feel of previous products. I use it every night and my friend says he's noticed how soft my lips are.
Comments about renewal lip complex:
I just read a review that said the Lip Renewal was gluppy. She obviously is using far too much on her lips. Like most of the Dermalogica products .... A little goes a long way. I had the same experience when I first began using this until I learned:
When you twist the bottom, if you will hold up to eye level, you will see the product coming out of the small holes on top. It just barely needs to come out & that is enough. Then smooth over lips like applying lipstick. It leaves my lips feeling silky smooth!
Secondly, I believe that an application at bedtime is crucial to get the most benefits. This allows it to stay on your lips for the longest amount of time thus giving the best benefits. Then use again during the day.
I always feel the conditioning & improvement when I use the Lip Renewal. It may take some time to SEE improvement, depending on how dry and/or damaged your lips have gotten but this a proven product for myself.
Comments about renewal lip complex:
After reading heaps of good reviews on this product I decided Id go and purchase it for myself as I suffer with dry lips and wanted to use a trusted skincare brand. I do not like the product at all it's thick and gluggy and is uncomfortably to have on my lips. I have defiantly used better products and am disappointed with this.
Comments about renewal lip complex:
I love everything about the renewal lip complex. It hydrates and works well as a primer for lipsticks. My lips are smooth and plump thanks to this product. I use it in the morning and at night before bed, however it can be used throughout the day. The smell is amazing! I bought two, I keep one in my purse and one by my sink alongside my other Dermalogica skincare products.
Comments about renewal lip complex:
I didn't find this product to be helpful for me. If I were to purchase again I would try to use it at night. Did not work for a daytime lip balm but goes on smooth. I have very dry lips in Arizona weather so perhaps that is why. I was hoping this would be more moisturizing.
Comments about renewal lip complex:
and I LOVE it! It makes my lips unbelievably soft and i love the smell! pure decadence

Q:Does the Lip Renewal complex have an exfoliator within it?: Hello there
4 answers
A:I also notice a slightly gritty feeling but it dissolves quickly. I love this product! I apply twice a day and it seems to be having a long-term moisturizing effect on my lips. It also seems to help my lip color stay on longer which is an added benefit.
A:If it feels gritty don't be alarmed. This product is meant to renew and restore your lips. The grit is because it is also an exfoliant. The grittiness should be minimal and blend into your lips when you apply the product. If you absolutely can't get past the gritty feeling Dermalogica offers the Climate Control Lip Treatment.
Q:Does this product have SPF? If so what factor?
