From Faith to Being: Reflections on a Name Change
I am excited, and a little nervous, to share some big news. We are giving this adventure in conversation a new name. Starting September 16th, Speaking of Faith with Krista Tippett is becoming Krista Tippett on Being.
This doesn't signal a change in the nature or ethos of what we will continue to produce week after week. It is, rather, a more spacious container for what the program has become. Being makes room for the ways in which we have in fact opened up the concept of "speaking of faith." It points at questions of "religion, meaning, ethics and ideas" at the heart of human life — not confined to Sunday mornings or Friday evenings, not on the sidelines of real life, but at the essence of who we are and how we live, individually and collectively.
We believe that Being is also a title with room to grow into, while Speaking of Faith has taken us as far in public media as it could. As much as we filled it with new meaning, the program's title remained an obstacle for many programmers and listeners. The story we have heard again and again is that people have had to get over the title, or find themselves listening to the show by accident, before they were ready to give themselves over to our content. We have heard that, for religious and non-religious people alike, the title Speaking of Faith makes it hard to talk about the program with friends and family — to spread the word "virally," as word spreads in our time.
This process of discernment that we might want and need to change the name of the program has been one of the most surprising learnings of the past year, which has been a period both of solidifying the program's strengths and of continuing to experiment. The energy and possibilities it opens fill me with a new excitement for the next stage of this project and my passion for it.
Full disclosure: I did not have an immediate enthusiastic reaction to Being. But I have come to love the title. As I have settled into it, slept on it, practiced saying it in front of the vast array of shows we do, and realized all of its connotations, it feels like home. "Being" is an elemental, essential word. It was a catchword of the existentialism of the 20th century, and existentialism is making room for spiritual life in the 21st. It is more hospitable than the word "faith" for our non-Christian and non-religious listeners. It is, at the same time, an evocation of the primary biblical name of God. "I am who I am" can be better translated, I recall my teacher of Hebrew pointing out, as "I will be who I will be."
As we were in the thick of this discernment, a mother wrote to us of how her teenage daughter has recently been drawn to our program. She commented on our blog, "It has been rewarding to watch her discover that unlike her subjects in school, religion cannot fit into a neat box. I'm sure she will tune in again as she continues to shape her own way of BEING in this world. This is certainly my hope." The capitalization was hers. We take on our appeal to her, indeed our responsibility to her, as a great and edifying adventure — our next frontier of listening, learning, and public service.
Now I want to invite you, our listeners, to grow into this new name, this evolving identity, with us. Let us know how it sits with you, how you are hearing it, and what it means. And please come along on the next phase of this journey.

And he's not doing very well with single men either. The one group he is doing okay with? The marrieds. A new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll found that with married women, Romney enjoys a three-point lead over President Obama. Among married men, Romney has a whopping 13-point advantage. But when you look only at single people, things go downhill fast for Mittens. An amazing 64 percent of single women prefer Obama, while just 28 percent support Romney, and single men fall for Obama 56 percent to 33 percent. Advertisement Advertisement It makes sense, given that those who have opted to marry might be more conservative, and many of them are probably also older—two things which would be enough to give Romney an edge. While many singles would be younger and probably more liberal in their views on social issues especially, which would lead them to Obamaland.The fact that married couples are now in the minority doesn't bode too well for Romney's plan to take the election. If he really wants to capture the single lady vote, he might want to stop trying to control their bodies, listen to some actual single ladies (as opposed to his obviously married wife), and brush up on his version of Al Green's "Let's Stay Together."

Virgin Blue âApiâ Is A First For Business Flyers & Travel Agents08/09/2005
Virgin Blue Airlines today introduced a new IT initiative enabling travel agencies and key accounts direct, real time booking integration with Virgin Blue's reservations system.
The API (Application Program Interface) capability is unique to Virgin Blue and is part of the airline's mission to increase its share of the business and Government travel markets.
The technology is specially designed to suit the needs of frequent flyers and was internally developed by Virgin Blue's IT team.
General Manager Information Technology, Nick Brant, said "This is a major breakthrough for Virgin Blue. We can now offer streamlined, immediate access to our booking system to selected external parties. Already 40 travel agencies, corporates and other organisations have signed up to use our technology including Zuji, travel.com.au, lastminute.com.au, the Queensland Government and other prominent travel industry participants."
He continued, "For the first time, these organisations can peruse and purchase Virgin Blue flights through their own systems, as well as check for information regarding flight schedule changes and billing."
He added, "It's all about making it easier and quicker for our Guests to choose and book Virgin Blue flights and the investment in this new technology is indicative of our increasing commitment to the business market and ongoing commitment to the travel trade".
The API system allows Virgin Blue to stay true to its low cost business model and will provide a cost savings in reducing the number and cost of bookings originating from various GDS (Global Distribution Systems).
Nick Brant continued, "We recognise the need to make it as easy as possible for our corporate and travel agent customers to book with Virgin Blue. In the past, some companies have embraced our affordable fares, comprehensive route network and high service standards but have been frustrated by a lack of interoperability between systems. This API has bulldozed that block."

As you know I have been focusing lately on handling my husbands' celiac disease diagnosis. It has taken time and a lot of learning for all of us to adjust our diet to accommodate this change. I have been changing the recipes for the traditional Moroccan foods he loves to create a version he can eat. When I first start writing about this change I got a LOT of emails from people who were either personally making this adjustment or who had a family member who required similar changes. To be truthful it threw me for a loop. I didn't realize how many people were struggling with this!
I asked my friend Nour who publishes Nourition and is a dietitian to guest post this week on the topic "Is Your Food Making You Sick?" Maybe you remember but MarocBaba's celiac diagnosis was discovered by me. I had noticed when he would get sick and what he had eaten beforehand. After an elimination diet (and him feeling much better) we went to the doctor to get an official diagnosis. At the time the doctor was trying to discover what was wrong by running a lot of (expensive) tests. We were able to forgo those tests and save a lot of money. I hope that Nour's advice here will help and please keep in mind she also is available for one to one coaching and support as well.
Is Your Food Making You Sick? Part One
Amanda expressed that many of you have food allergies and asked me to write about them. Coincidentally, this is one of my specialties. I help individuals eliminate the pain, discomfort, and emotional toll that result from food sensitivities and intolerances so they get their lives back and start doing all the great things they love to do.
I'll start by explaining the different ways your body can react to food: allergy, sensitivity, or intolerance.
Food allergy is a well-understood reaction in your body that involves the immune system. A food that would normally be recognized safe triggers your immune cells to react in a mechanism known as IgE. As a result, histamines are released from white blood cells, causing symptoms like tingling or itching in the mouth, swelling of lips, face and tongue, trouble breathing, eczema, hives, abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and/or fainting. Sometimes, a food allergy can cause an anaphylactic reaction—constriction of airways, dropped blood pressure, loss of consciousness—that necessitates an ER trip to prevent death or coma.
Common allergy foods are peanuts and tree nuts, eggs, fish, shellfish, milk, and soy.
Food allergies are not pleasant. On the bright side though, they are easier to detect than the next type I'll be talking about. The reaction occurs within a few minutes to two hours of ingesting the food, the allergic reaction is definitive, and any amount—tiny or large—triggers it. They're caused by one mechanism in the body (IgE), making diagnosis tests for the allergist a bit simpler.
Food sensitivity is a reaction to food that also involves the immune system. However, this type of reaction is less understood compared to food allergies. In fact, some clinicians don't believe in it. I do and I have the research to back me up. Different immune mechanisms are involved that are not IgE, so they're called non-IgE reactions (if you want more details I'll be happy to share). In food sensitivities, the reactions can be delayed for up to 3 days, depending on the dose—a tiny amount might be ok but a larger one is not, and the symptoms are often chronic that people get used to them and think of them as normal and just who they are. Some people with food sensitivities feel that something is off but they just can't put their hands on it. Because sensitivities result from different mechanisms, it's important that the test for them is inclusive. Food sensitivities cause irritable bowel syndrome, fibromyalgia, inflammatory arthritis, migraines and other headaches, eczema, chronic hives, ADD and ADHD, chronic fatigue, and depression. A body with unresolved food sensitivity is in a constant state of inflammation. Trigger foods can be food colorings, additives, or something as healthy as onions.
Food intolerance does not involve the immune system but rather the digestive system. Normally, your body has enzymes to digest food. In some people, the enzymes don't function properly or not enough is available, and the food compound travels to the large intestines instead of being absorbed. There, the gut bacteria happily digest and ferment that food, and that's what causes gas, bloating, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. You might be familiar with lactose intolerance, but did you know other sugars could cause a similar effect? These simple carbohydrates are collectively labeled FODMAPs (Fermentable, Oligo-, Di- and Mono-saccharides and Polyols) and contribute to irritable bowel syndrome (gas, bloating, diarrhea, and abdominal pain). They're found in many foods, such as dairy, fruits, vegetables, honey, and sweeteners (sorbitol, manitol, etc) usually found in sugar-free gum and cough drops. The solution is to pinpoint which of these types of small carbohydrate causes symptoms, and then eliminating its sources from your diet.
In the next post, I'll give you more info about sensitivities and intolerances, as well as answer Amanda's questions: what trigger foods to avoid and how to eat a balanced diet and make good choices when you have food allergies.

For the first time since 2006, the Drover men are ranked in the NAIA Top 25 for soccer.
Tuesday night, the University of Science and Arts team shut out Roger State University with a final score of 2-0. The national ranking — 21 — does not reflect Tuesday's game, either. The women are ranked 22 for the second week in a row. Action Tuesday night for the men's game started early with a goal by Dusan Rasovic and an assist by Niall Crick at 12:39. The only other goal of the game was at 25:41 by Drover David Otieno. Gavin Otieno and Rasovic assisted in that goal. The Drovers did not allow any goals against them, making this the seventh shutout of the season. The men have an overall record of 12-1, 5-0 in the Sooner Athletic Conference. The team is ranked No. 1 in the conference. The men are No. 2 in the division in assists per game with 3.92 and in shots per game at 23.38. The women also beat Rogers State University on Tuesday night, with a final score of 5-1. Erika Griffith struck first for the Drovers, getting a goal at the 12:43-minute marker with an assist from Taylor Fain. The women allowed a goal by Rogers State five minutes later. Later in the half, Kelli Korleski netted the ball, with an assist from Brittany Jay, for a second Drover goal. Jay then scored two goals in a row in the next 25 minutes. Calli Cooper and Fain assisted the first, and Cooper assisted the second as well. Cooper ended the game with the Drover's fifth goal at 70:45. The win brings the women's overall record to 10-3 and 4-1 in the conference. They are No. 1 in the SAC. The women are ranked No. 1 in the division for total goals with 67 and goals per game with an average of 5.15. Both teams face off against John Brown Saturday afternoon at Drover Pitch. The women kick off at 1 p.m. and the men follow at 3 p.m.

The two Emery Spartan boys underclass basketball teams are enjoying success on the court this year as they work hard to be the future varsity starters.
The Emery JV's are 8-5 for the season after last weeks win over the Dinos and the sophomores are 7-4 after their victory over Carbon.
The leading scorer for both teams this season is freshman Dave Justice with a 16.8 average with the sophs and a 10.8 average with the JVs. Joey Bernard is the second leading JV scorer with 9.1 ppg and Darin Winn averages 11.6 with the sophs. The JV's have had six different leading scorers this year while the sophs have had four.
Trevor Tuttle is the leading rebounder followed closely by Bernard for the JVs. Mike Blomquist is the leading assist man and the leader with steals. Tuttle has a big lead in blocks.
For the sophomores, Winn is the leading rebounder followed closely by Vic Rosen. Justice is the leader in steals and assists.

New signing Dan Bowden will make his Leicester debut in the Tigers' home game against Exeter at Welford Road on Saturday.
New signing Dan Bowden will make his Leicester debut in the Tigers' home game against Exeter Chiefs.
Former London Irish centre Bowden is named in the Tigers line-up for this Round Five fixture and will run out at Welford Road for the first time.
Front-rowers George Chuter and Logovi'i Mulipola come into the Tigers forward pack and there is a return for Thomas Waldrom at number eight with Jordan Crane moving across the back-row to 6.
Ed Slater is included in the squad for the first time this season after recovering from a knee injury.
"We've all been very honest about the performance against Harlequins last week and the only way we know to correct that is to work hard in training and to front-up again on Saturday," said Tigers director of rugby Richard Cockerill.
"Exeter had an excellent win last week and they are a team to be respected. They're tough opponents and they've added to their game again this season.
"We've played some decent rugby in the season so far and we've been resilient in defence but we need to be more accurate and composed on the ball."
Anthony Allen and Steve Mafi took knocks in the game against Harlequins last week, while Tigers are also without injured club captain Geordan Murphy, Miles Benjamin, Tom Croft, Louis Deacon, Rob Hawkins, Manu Tuilagi, Micky Young and Ben Youngs.
Meanwhile, the Chiefs will travel to the East Midlands having been forced to make one change to their winning line-up.
Back-row James Phillips injured his knee in the Saracens encounter and is set for a prolonged spell on the sidelines, but Exeter have a more than able replacement in the shape of England international Tom Johnson, who himself was forced to sit out last week's action.
The only other change in personnel comes in the back division where Kiwi centre Jason Shoemark returns to the fold at the expense of Phil Dollman.
Shoemark's inclusion in the midfield alongside Sireli Naqelevuki means summer signing Ian Whitten is switched to the right wing. Dollman, meanwhile, starts on the bench in place of Mark Foster.
So with a familiar feel to the Exeter line-up, coaches Rob Baxter and Ali Hepher are hoping their troops will perform in the heat of battle.
"Last week was good, but equally we've kept level headed about it all. Like always we didn't get carried away when we lost at London Welsh – and equally we haven't got carried away having beaten Saracens," said Hepher.
"We're well aware going to Leicester is always a tough ask. Yes, we may have won there last season, but at the same time you have to remember they were numbers down on that day because of the World Cup.
"It will be a different story this weekend, we know that, but equally we're in good form ourselves and we've played some good rugby apart from one game.
"As always we will look to play our game and challenge Leicester in different ways."
Form: Leicester Tigers have not scored a try for 166 minutes – their longest barren spell in the Premiership since November 2010. The Tigers' 9-22 home defeat to Harlequins on Saturday was only the sixth time in Premiership history that Leicester have come away from a game at Welford Road with no league points. Exeter Chiefs' last five games have all been won by the home side on the day, whilst the Chiefs have lost their last three away games. The Devonians achieved the Aviva Premiership Rugby double over the Tigers last season and are attempting to join a select band of clubs who have managed back to back Premiership wins at Welford Road after Northampton, Harlequins, Saracens and Wasps.
The teams:
Leicester: 15 Scott Hamilton, 14 Niall Morris, 13 Matt Smith, 12 Dan Bowden, 11 Vereniki Goneva, 10 Toby Flood, 9 Sam Harrison, 8 Thomas Waldrom, 7 Julian Salvi, 6 Jordan Crane (c), 5 Geoff Parling, 4 Graham Kitchener, 3 Dan Cole, 2 George Chuter, 1 Logovi'i Mulipola.
Replacements: 16 Tom Youngs, 17 Boris Stankovich, 18 Martin Castrogiovanni, 19 Ed Slater, 20 Brett Deacon, 21 Patrick Phibbs, 22 George Ford, 23 Adam Thompstone.

i like to watch really short animes because the chances that there are gonna be fillers is really slim. fillers are killing really good animes i.e. naruto, bleach, etc.
Just don't try to mess with me...
I will just PWN you!
So you have read the manga...
Now watch it!!!
(and no, I don't do boring manga vids with ear piercing rock music)
Look here to see manga in a new light
as far as i know ep. 137 marks the end of the fillers, which is good news, i've been really wanting to see the Hitsugaya's thousand year ice prison
Why don't more people read these mangas?
I really hope these fillers don't continue till real winter , like the naruto filler's if you remember the last non filler before shippuden, training for a couple years was naruto's plan then a couple real years until shippuden.

Feed & Forage
Feed and forage analysis is a vital part of livestock health, growth, and production. The main objectives of this testing program are to improve feed and forage quality and strengthen feeding programs.
Submission Forms
Lab Guidelines
Lab Methods
Contact Agricultural Service Laboratory for volume discounts.
1. Includes phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper, manganese, iron, and sulfur. Most forages contain adequate Sulfur. However, if they are grown under low Sulfur conditions with high rates of N fertilizer or if urea is added as a feed supplement, the N:S ratio in the ration may be too high (greater than 16:1) for optimum amino acid synthesis. Addition of Sulfur to the ration may be of some value.
2. The percentage residual mineral matter remaining after all organic material is destroyed by heat. Forages contain 3 to 12% ash on a dry weight basis while grains and concentrates contain 1 to 4%.
3. Useful only for detecting possible toxic levels in forages (greater than 2,000 part per million).
4. In rations is a concentrated energy source. Calculation of the total digestible nutrients (TDN) and energy takes into account the normal fat content for the forage or grain specified. Therefore, fat analysis is not needed on most forages and grains. However, for complete feed and total mixed rations containing greater than 4% fat, the fat analysis is necessary to determine better estimates for the TDN and energies.
5. Unavailable crude protein which is contained in the fiber fraction of the forage. This value will indicate if excessive heating has occurred, thus reducing protein digestibility. If heat damage is suspected, an analysis for bound protein should be requested.
6. Dry Matter will be run routinely on all samples at no charge if other analyses are checked. If dry matter is the only test required, the fee for dry matter only is $3.00.
7. Total digestible nutrients and energy values for hays, silages, mixed rations, grains, and complete feeds will be calculated from the crude protein and acid detergent fiber values. For poultry samples, analyses of crude protein, neutral detergent fiber, fat and ash must be checked for calculation of metabolizable energy. Relative feed value for forages will be calculated from the acid detergent fiber and neutral detergent fiber values. Available crude protein will be calculated from the crude protein and bound protein values. Nonstructural carbohydrates will be calculated from the crude protein, neutral detergent fiber, fat, and ash values.

Skip to comments.Maddow: You Take Mr. Baracks Dime, You Support Mr. Baracks Policies
Posted on 03/12/2009 7:28:46 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest
Barack Obama bought and paid for these banks. They better get in line behind his plan to abolish the secret ballot in unionization elections. Thats Rachel Maddows position. The MSNBC host is furious that banks taking bail-out funds have the audacity to do what they think is in the best interest of their businesses, instead of supporting the presidents scheme to do away with what most Americans consider a sacred element of democracy: the secret ballot.
Apparently Citi and Bank of America have hosted conference calls in which opposition was expressed to the Obama-backed, Orwellian-named, Employee Free Choice Act, which would permit the abolition of the secret ballot in unionization elections. That infuriated Maddow tonight . . .
View video here.
(Excerpt) Read more at finkelblog.com ...
Obama bought and paid for the banks. They better support him. Ping to Today show list.
I haven't been keeping up with pop culture. Who the hell is this Madcow and why is she so popular all of a sudden? She was a nobody last month.
Well, she's got her own MSNBC show and about a million people watch her every night. For my sins I monitor and report.
NO No no...You have your Bovine mixed up, you meant Bull Dyke?
She is actually losing viewership.
I saw five minutes of her show last night. She is boorish, unintelligent, unattractive, and very full of herself. She is in short a poster-child for the Democratic party.
Silly me, I thought the tax payers bought and paid for the banks.
Then she has no problem with the logic - "You do not take Barack's (sic) dime, you do not support his policies".
He who pays the piper picks the tune...unless he who pays happens to be the taxpayer, in which case he pretty much just shuts the f*ck up and takes it in the ass again.
All the dimes, dearie dreary Maddow, belong to US. We the people. We can damn well take them and be not beholden to any. Let no one forget that.
In war, sometimes you have to not only go behind the lines, you have to infiltrate and work for the enemy.
In this war, many of us will have to take those dimes, as many as possible but ignore and dance around the regulations they are given with. Be as honest as you can, but this is war.
excellent point! when do we get a vote on card check? Heck, I don't even think we got a vote on the stimulus....Well, we got a vote, they just chose to ignore the 75% of us who said no.
In other words, the female (loosely speaking) version of Keith Olbermann, her PMSNBC bookend.
Socialism is just the modern form of feudalism. Bow to your liege lord!
"one of the principal reasons why government money is poisonous: It politicizes whatever it's spent on, and whoever receives iteffectively converting them into vassals of the state and its current political leadership."
Perfectly put!
Since he took OUR dime to buy the banks, I suppose he needs to listen to us.
Just what is the connection between the two issues? Why would the banks have anything to do with the secret ballots for union workers?
Uh, what?
That dime isn't Mr Barack's - whomever that is; it's mine
Support my policys you dimwitted twit!
Dear Missy your fired your loser company GE took my money too.
Is that a woman? If so, she looks like Cory from "Boy Meets World."
So if Obama takes my money he is my bitch?
These fools are destroying America because our citizens are public school "educated" morons. They can't help themselves. We can. We must protect the ignorant from social brainwashing. If not us, then who?
Also, if "news" isn't fair and balanced, its a political contribution and corporate political contributions are illegal under Federal election law (not that anything that helps Democrats is illegal now a days).
Who the hell is this Madcow
One hell of an over educated liberal "cunning runt"!
You are right. They did.
And now that everyone is looting the kitty, we taxpayers have to buy and pay for the banks again, and again, and again.
yep.... the borrower is always slave to the lender...
Since he took OUR dime to buy the banks, I suppose he needs to listen to us.
****Fat chance.
Wasn't this one of the reasons alot of the community banks didn't want any bailout money? They didn't want to be "controlled" by BO and his thugs.
Does Maddow believe she/the state owns the means of production (classic definition of socialist) or does she just fancy herself a economic fascist?
Now she can get back deciding her costume for next Halloween. The skinny Elvis or the fat Elvis.
dollar will soon be worthless soon anyways!
Hilariously, her ratings are higher than Olbermann's. (Although neither of them have 1/3 of O'Reilly's audience) I find Madcow even smarmier than Olbermann, although he definitely wins the arrogance event.
She may call herself a lesbian, but she is figuratively sucking Obamas d*** on every show. Probably would love to give it a try in reality.
She rns her show and lives a place called Never Never Land, the place where teenage boys and female wannabees who never want to grow up live, write, and God knows what else. The latest cultural outpost of the Peter Pan Syndrome.
This odious Rachel creature spews nothing but trash as she vilifies, night after night, George W Bush, his administration, policies, WOT, and on on on. She is living in a NeverLand where the most important topic is Bush.
Literally talking out of the side of her sideways slanted mouth, she aims to appear brilliant and wonkish, She uses the same annoying inflextion, expressions and tones in every statement.
While this might be cute on a teenage boy, or just plain obnoxious, she continues on.
There is an equally, if not more sycophantic profile by someone called Rebecca Traister, a trash columnist for Salon.com.
Do you mean she's a cunning linguist?
I wonder why she didn't say you are forced to take Mr. Barack's dime? As usual another pig in the pen does an oink oink.
'What a CITI thing to do'...
-> "Just what is the connection between the two issues? Why would the banks have anything to do with the secret ballots for union workers?" -<
For one, most Banks are Non Union.
Actually, it's the TAXPAYER'S dime, but that's a minor detail to Maddow and her ilk.
After all, fascism is just one of socialism's many variants (not that they're completely identical.) If you define as socialist any ideology that advocates "socializing the means of production," then fascism is a socialist ideology.
The best description of the US government since the New Deal is fascist, in that the central theme has been authoritarian control of the economy by the Federal government, enabled by a totally dishonest "interpretation" of the Commerce Clause.
The New Deal also certainly imposed a significant amount of socialist/collectivist income redistribution, which was expanded in the following decades—especially by the "Great Society."
Nevertheless, some elements of free-market capitalism were also preserved—but only just enough to fool the gullible. Any substantive claim to free-market capitalism became questionable once an income tax was imposed, and the currency came under the control of a central bank. But the New Deal converted "free-market capitalism" into a museam exhibit that was still allowed some real use, under the watchful control of Federal and State bureacrats.
This is what happens when you lay down with dogs.
Looks like Mrs. Michael Moore.
If she's sporting a large gut she would be the perfect compliment to Olbermann.
no tuna for you tonight if you don't take the Messiah's cash
The banks should do the honorable thing. Return every cent and shut their doors. I won't hold my breath.
Stress on the unintelligent. She asked a ceo of some major utility to take a loss to make up for decades of pollution. Anyone that stupid shouldn't be allowed to cross the street by themselves.
Those aren't his dimes, Maddow.
You're wrong again dude.

"I almost passed on this shoe because the description reads faux patent. However, looking closely at the online picture, you can see the word "leather" on the inside of the shoe. After receiving them, I can see that it reads "leather upper." Last spring I nearly bought these exact shoes at Nordstrom ON SALE for TWICE the price, so I really feel like I got a good deal. The fit is perfect and the comfort is adequate. The style and color (nude) is fabulous. They look chic and cute with pretty much anything. This is a wonderful shoe that will be a staple in the spring and fall."

Eh...Glad I didn't pay full price for this! It didn't do anything for me...Feb 11, 2012Jess

Really Works!I have had laser treatments on my face and they helped with the thickness of the hair but didn't completely stop the hair growth. I'm back to using depilatory creams. The Gigi Hair Removal Cream for Face is the best.
I decided to give the Keep It Bare a try because the prescription for Vaniqa would have been way too expensive.
I have been using Keep It Bare for approximately a month. So far it has really helped to slow the regrowth of hair so I don't have to use the depilatory cream so often like I did before. This would probably work better if I waxed but I prefer not to. I am very impressed with the results so far.
Update: I got tired of using the depilatory cream so often and decided to try waxing instead. Keep It Bare really works a lot better with the waxing. I'm amazed by how well this product works and wish I hadn't spent all that money on laser treatments because eventually the hair on my face ended up as thick as it was before the treatments. The only thing that has really made a difference is the Keep It Bare For The Face. You do need to be sure to follow the directions and start with using twice a day for 10 days when first using.Nov 6, 2010Angelica / California

Not For MeI tried this product and I didnt really see any change... I didnt like the chemical sent if left behind after using. And it also does not absorve in the skin properly it leaves a coat after use that starts to peel off like skin if you mess with it... I wouldnt recommend this product to any1Sep 8, 2010Yadira / L.A

Amazing Product! Must Buy And Try!I highly recommend this product to everyone who has frustrating re-growth and is looking for serious help with unwanted facial hair. I had very embarrassing growth on my face and thick hairs on my chin and side areas. I used to avoid ponytails and buns and leave my hair out in order to cover the sides of my face. For some reason the hair that grew back after waxing was always thick and stubbly-and looked as if I had used a razor--gross! I'd have about a day of clear skin and by the night stubble was visible. I was desperately looking for any help so I bought this product. I'm shocked at how I did not know about it before! After threading or waxing, I put the product on every day twice a day for about ten days. After the second day I was seeing much finer re-growth-so I kept it up till I reached 10 days and then put it on once a day. I was so happy, that I had to come on here and give my review. Definitely sticking to this product--very happy with the results and saved me lots of cash (I was going in for a laser consultation if this did not work.) Buy it and try it! No harsh smells or sensations during application for me--but definitely do the patch test just in case.

MisinformationI just want to provide some information for readers regarding the comment on parabans. Parabans are preservatives, and are used in just about ANY health/beauty product (lotions, shampoos, etc)otherwise youd have all these products overflowing with bacteria and put yourself at risk for infections. -pharmacistSep 2, 2008The Corner Pharmacist

MisleadingFor you advertising this product as natural and safe, then how can explain using 2 of the parabens in the ingredients and proclaim to be safe. Paraben was linked to a breast cancer cause that women are facing around the world. If you get rid of any and all chemicals then you may proclaim to be safe. Until then you should back-off on that statement.Jun 14, 2008Tami / Denver, Colorado

Wonderful ProductIve been using this product for a few weeks. Ive tried lots of different products and this one works great. Ive noticed a big difference in my appearance. Im waxing less often and not spending much time tweezing. This product really works. Thanks!Jan 12, 2008Kathy H. / New Jersey

It's Been Working For MeI have been using this product for over a year. I tweeze my eye brows and use this product every day. With age hairs on my chin began to pop up. I tweeze them and then use this product. When hairs grow back they are thinner and some have not come back. So far this is the only product that has diminished the hairs that grow other than using electrolysis. This cream also makes my skin softer and smoother. The smell of this product is tolerated, it has an initial smell when you put it on but then its not very noticeable. It would be great if they made this product with a rose or lavender smell.Dec 12, 2007Eg / New Jersey Usa

The information will be available for new pool issuances (daily file) and monthly reporting (all active loans in Ginnie Mae pools). Release of the loan-level data will be phased-in, in accordance with the attached schedules.
Single-family forward MBS data will be released for all of the data fields outlined in the MBS Loan-Level Disclosure Layout, Version 1.3.
HMBS loan-level data will be released in two phases. The data elements to be disclosed in each phase are articulated in the HMBS Loan-Level Disclosure Layout, Version 1.6.
The single-family forward MBS and the HMBS loan-level disclosure file layouts, as well as test files and data dictionaries can be found on Ginnie Mae's website at:

WTS: New Iphone 4S White Verizon
Item Description: New 4S Verizon White for PagePlus 16GB
Price: Was $350, temporarily lowered to $300 for holiday sale
Condition: New, was registered with Apple last week so if you act quickly, you could purchase AppleCare+ by January 4. This would make a great gift.
Includes: Phone with plastic tabs still on it and box with original accessories, unused
Shipping Details: $14 to USA only, will include tracking #
Payment Options: Paypal from verified account, mark as gift to avoid fees please; when you are ready to pay I will send you my paypal email
Contact info: send me private message on this website
Additional info: This is for someone who wants a brand new 4S on PagePlus. I activated the phone last night and was able to send and receive
phone, text and data. Verizon reports it as a good ESN but says there is an "equipment order" tied to phone so it won't activate on Verizon. Note: the pic
below says it is activated on Verizon but that is really PagePlus, not Verizon.
I have been a longtime member of mobile nations (since 2008) and have sold at least two other phones to satisfied buyers. PagePlus leases the Verizon network
and provides cheaper plans than Verizon (pagepluscellular.com gives you a description of their plans and you can find more information about PagePlus on Howard Forums).
I originally intended this phone for a friend and he has unlimited data with Verizon so a PagePlus phone won't work for him. I too have unlimited Verizon data so I can't use this phone. It looks beautiful and runs smooth and fast.
Photos: Pics are attached. You can see the Verizon logo with signals but it is on the PagePlus network. I will deactivate it before I send it to you.

Edinburgh finally brought their 11-match losing streak to an end after edging past Ulster 14-8 at Murrayfield on Friday.
Edinburgh finally brought their 11-match losing streak to an end after edging past Ulster 14-8 at Murrayfield on Friday.
Under the tutelage of interim coaches Stevie Scott and Dunacn Hodge Edinburgh produced a stoic defensive display to halt the advancements of the out-of-form Ulster.
The Irish region slipped off top spot recently and a fourth defeat in their last five games dents any hopes of a home semi-final.
Given the catastrophic weather conditions that have been pummelling the British Isles for the last 24 hours, it was a minor miracle that this game even went ahead. A match that was crucial, therefore, to Ulster's aspiration of securing a home semi-final was played in horrific conditions.
As it was, the match got off to a decidedly scrappy start. Both teams struggled to adapt to the inclement conditions, and quality possession was at a premium. The opening quarter witnessed a litany of handling errors, as the players struggled to retain the ball.
Considering the disruptive effect of the Six Nations and the catalogue of injuries afflicting both teams, such profligacy was perhaps to be expected. Despite a clear intent to play rugby, the ambition of the teams was hindered by the horrendous weather.
Although Ulster made every effort to inject width into their game, they continually came unstuck, and were fundamentally too loose in their approach.
It was Edinburgh, therefore, who adapted better to the playing conditions. Their endeavour earned its reward on 16 minutes when Piers Francis slotted a penalty to secure a 3-0 lead.
Taking into account the intensity and efficiency displayed by the hosts, it was the least they deserved. Ulster tried desperately to assert themselves and establish an attacking platform, but were undone time and again by a series of handling errors. Francis deservedly augmented his team's advantage on 30 minutes by landing another well-taken penalty.
By this stage the attacking impetus was assuredly with Edinburgh, and the Scottish side were showing a level of composure that belied their inconsistent league form. In fact, the hosts were unlucky not to be entering the interval with a substantial lead. Instead it was Ulster who struck on the cusp of half time, with Jackson converting a penalty to reduce the deficit to 6-3.
The second half commenced with increased levels of application and intensity by Ulster, who seemed determined to make amends for a fairly woeful first half effort. It was the away side that made the better start to the second period, driving at the hosts' defensive wall. They were rewarded with a penalty attempt on 42 minutes, but Jackson was inaccurate with the kick.
If his miss disheartened the young fly-half, he was afforded an opportunity to earn redemption two minutes later, but again scuffed the kick from considerably further out. Ulster were now exhibiting much improved levels of continuity, but were scuppered by an inability to convert territorial ascendancy into points.
Jackson had another chance to reduce the arrears further on 52 minutes, but was once again unable to convert the opportunity. This latest miscue was particularly calamitous as it occurred straight in front of the posts. Following on from an average kicking performance in the Six Nations, Jackson's boot has been very much under the microscope. I am afraid that the effort by the number ten will have done little to silence his detractors.
Edinburgh's ascendancy was copper fastened on 55 minutes, when a loose ball emerged from an Ulster scrum and number eight Netani Talei swept it up, before off loading to Stuart McInally to score. Edinburgh's back row had been extremely effective all evening, with Ross Rennie comprising a fantastic triumvirate.
Ulster laid siege to the Edinburgh half thereafter, but were continually repelled by a superb Edinburgh defence. Ulster did give themselves a lifeline, when Andrew Trimble touched down on 65 minutes, following a deft kick by the returning Jared Payne. Jackson was remiss with his conversion, making it 11-8 to the hosts.
Francis extended the lead on 75 minutes, to seal a thoroughly deserved victory for incoming coach Scott. Ulster, on the other hand, have much soul searching if they are to salvage a modicum of hope from a league campaign that once promised so much.

Bygones: Comrie comes home
Robin Brownlee
September 09 2009 08:34PM
To say I never saw a return to the Edmonton Oilers by Mike Comrie coming is to understate in the extreme -- one need only read what I wrote Aug. 19 to see how out to lunch I was on the possibility.
Remember? It was such a ridiculous notion, and for so many reasons, that I wasn't even going to ask MC about it. It made no sense. Too many bad feelings his first time around, when he could have and should have been the hometown hero but turned his back on the Oilers.
And then there was the fit, or lack of same, given the make-up of the roster as it sits going into training camp. And blah, blah, blah . . . At least one of the local dailies agreed, quoting a team source giving a Comrie encore the thumbs down.
Well, as it stands right now, after a 15-minute, face-to-face conversation I had with Comrie this afternoon, I've got to tell you we'd all better get used to the idea of seeing MC in Oilers silks again.
While I'm told there's no deal done as of now and that there's at least one other option for Comrie -- I believe it's the Atlanta Thrashers -- I'd be willing to wager MC will be an Oiler by noon Friday.
In what stands as a classic case of letting bygones be bygones, Comrie and the Oilers have settled their differences to the point where I believe the ink is a formality and the unlikeliest of do-overs will begin when Comrie reports for training camp physicals Saturday.
I think I've got it right this time.
If you remember the split between Comrie and the Oilers in 2003, a nasty bit of business that included searing ill-will between Comrie, agent Ritch Winter and then-GM Kevin Lowe, then your reaction to the possibility was likely much the same as mine was Aug. 19.
Like, WTF? How is this even possible? What part of the first time didn't everybody understand? What's changed since then? Why would Comrie even entertain returning to a city that's a hockey fishbowl, a city full of avid fans still pissed that he took a stack of bonus money and blew town by forcing a trade to Philadelphia?
In light of the conversation I had with Comrie, plus others in the last week with various people, I'd like to think I've got some insight as to what's at play here and what's changed since I was so wrong three weeks ago. So, let's take a swing at figuring out how and why things have turned 180 degrees since MC waved goodbye six years ago.
First and foremost, the two prime players, Comrie and Lowe, have done some maturing in the six years that have passed.
My sense is that having stepped back from things by moving from GM to president of hockey operations, and with the passage of time, Lowe has grown enough to let go of the bitterness that was obvious in 2003.
Lowe's as passionate a man as you'll ever meet, and he took it as a slight to himself and the organization when Comrie started making noise about being unhappy in Edmonton. The reasons why didn't matter. Lowe played hard-ass, hard-ball back then -- a no-holds barred game that included the request Comrie buy his way out of Edmonton with $2.5 million that would get him a ticket to Anaheim. That game is over now. It's taken six years, but the grudge, and it was a dandy, is gone.
I think it's safe to say Comrie, who was 22 when the split took place, sees things much differently now as well.
Paint Comrie as a spoiled athlete with a sense of entitlement if you will, but I believe his inability to cope with the pressure of playing in his hometown had as much to do with the simple fact he needed time and space to grow up as anything else. Who doesn't? The difference is most of us don't have to do it in the spotlight he was so uncomfortable in.
As is the case with Lowe, the past six years have provided Comrie some perspective. He's days away from his 29th birthday now. That's not a free pass. At least I think not.
While Comrie angered fans by never stating specific reasons why he wanted out in 2003, he's been quite forthright recently as the days have ticked by and camp has approached. He could've and should've handled some things differently. He's plead guilty to that.
-- As unpopular as Comrie is with some fans, he was well-liked in the dressing room. Everybody remaining from when he last played here -- Shawn Horcoff, Ales Hemsky, Ethan Moreau, Steve Staios and Fernando Pisani -- has voiced support privately, and to team management, about a possible return. If Hemsky and Horcoff et al, say they want Comrie back, it's probably prudent that management listen.
-- Owner Daryl Katz wants this to happen.
And, before you trot out the "meddling owner" routine, it's not altogether unusual for owners to make their wishes known. Many around the NHL do, it's simply matter of degree -- from subtle to all-out arm-twisting.
-- Katz and Mike's dad, Bill, are good friends and I suspect that's at play here, as well. I think it's a shame -- not to be confused with a hockey decision -- Bill Comrie, who has given millions of dollars to charitable causes in this city and been a model citizen, felt compelled to leave town over the level of hostility he felt during the split in 2003.
This is a better city with Bill Comrie in it.
I don't know if Comrie's best years are ahead of him or behind him, but I do know the Oilers aren't exactly burdened with players who have scored 30 goals in the NHL.
Small players? Yes. Thirty-goal guys? No. I'm still having trouble getting my head around how Pat Quinn is going to fit all these little guys into a line-up that was supposed to get grittier and tougher.
Maybe Comrie on left wing with Horcoff and Hemsky is a start. Maybe Robert Nilsson gets moved. The fit, as I wrote Aug. 19, is something I still don't necessarily see even if Comrie can bounce back from a bad hip.
My guess, even knowing what we know, is that all Comrie has to do to make good on a second chance is, well, be the Mike Comrie on the ice fans here used to cheer for. It'll be a rough ride at first, and that's to be expected, but if he performs, if he delivers the goods, maybe there's a chance for him to have this town by the tail again.
If Comrie and Lowe can set aside their differences, get around what was and focus on what might be, maybe fans should do likewise and give it a chance.
Pulling it off would be one helluva story, no?

When I suggested that sounded like you'd be looking at who was out there, determining the strength of the opposition, and then putting out the appropriate line (ie. line-matching), you said that it wasn't.
You suggested no such thing. You suggested that my post required "extreme" line matching. I responded that it did not require extreme line matching, and reasoned further that it did not, because the important element of the matching merely required using the Horcoff line in tough minutes.
Please tell me where I denied line matching? I explicitly encouraged line matching while denying my suggestion to be an extreme example.
We have quotes from Quinn which suggest he is willing to match lines if necessary. There is plenty of reason to believe that he would be very much in favor of having a similar line to rely on when necessary.
Dry signing, another small forward in the mix, taking away minutes from the young guys who need minutes for developement.

I'm not sure where this came from, but frankly, I'm not surprised. My only surprise is that it has taken someone this long to state this publiclly. *bows modestly

@ kingsblade: So we're arguing semantics; fine, I withdraw the word extreme. I don't care that much. It's a fine theory. I just don't see Quinn adopting it as a system is all. Maybe he'll surprise me.

@ Ender the Dragon: It isn't really just semantics when the addition of that word entirely changes the implication of you statement. Please don't pretend I am being unreasonable in thinking that the two statements are vastly different.

The New York Yankees and Alex Rodriguez will be stuck with each other for the foreseeable future, an arrangement that only figures to get more uncomfortable.
Major League Baseball on Monday suspended Rodriguez for 211 games, citing multiple violations of its drug policy and an alleged effort by the player to "obstruct and frustrate" the league's investigation into performance-enhancing drugs supplied by Biogenesis, a now-closed South Florida anti-aging clinic. Rodriguez appealed the decision and is permitted to play at least until his appeal is heard, which probably won't happen until the offseason.
Monday evening, at Chicago's U.S. Cellular Field, Rodriguez probably summed up the feelings of both franchise and player when asked if he felt the Yankees want him to return.
"If I'm productive," he said, "I think they want me back."
Calling the last seven months of his life "a nightmare," thanks in part to January hip surgery in a year he turned 38, Rodriguez did his best to play the part of aggrieved athlete rather than the performance-enhancing drug abuser MLB has portrayed him in levying its suspension.
"If I don't defend myself," he said, "no one will."
It probably won't be the Yankees, not at this point.
The war of words between Rodriguez and the team that's played out both in public and behind the scenes.
STATEMENT: A-Rod Will fight through the process
Monday, manager Joe Girardi did not hesitate to pencil Rodriguez - who hasn't played this season due to hip surgery and a quadriceps strain - into his lineup, batting fourth and playing third base in his season debut.
The front office took a slightly different approach.
The Yankees took the occasion of Rodriguez's suspension to lash out at their third baseman and his associates for apparently insinuating that the club did not have his best interests and recovery from hip surgery at heart, and that the team somehow aided MLB's investigation in hopes of not having to pay the more than $100 million remaining on Rodriguez's contract.
PUNISHED: A-Rod, 12 others suspended
Another Yankees player, catcher Francisco Cervelli, who is currently on the disabled list, accepted a 50-game MLB ban for his role in the Biogenesis scandal.
"We are compelled," the club said in a statement, "to address certain reckless and false allegations concerning the Yankees' role in this matter. The New York Yankees in no way instituted and/or assisted MLB in the direction of this investigation; or used the investigation as an attempt to avoid its responsibilities under a player contract; or did its medical staff fail to provide the appropriate standard of care to Alex Rodriguez.
"Separately, we are disappointed with the news today of the suspension of Francisco Cervelli. It's clear that he used bad judgment."
The difference in wording was noticeable: The Yankees said they were "disappointed" in Cervelli while terming both public and private proclamations regarding Rodriguez as "reckless and false."
Friday night, after playing in a minor-league game in Trenton, N.J., as he recovers from a quad injury, Rodriguez strongly insinuated what had been bubbling beneath the surface: His belief the Yankees would rather he not return.
"There are a lot of layers to it," Rodriguez said. "My job is to be able to take the field. As far as the legal stuff, I can't answer that. There are a lot of fans and teammates wondering and asking what is going on.
"There is more than one party that benefits from me not stepping on the field. It is not my teammates, it is not the Yankees. People have been trying to get creative trying to cancel my contract."
When asked who the party was, Rodriguez said, "What do you think?"
Asked to clarify these comments Monday, Rodriguez eased off, if only a little.
"I said what I said," Rodriguez said. "That's Friday night; today is another day. I'm focused on what my job is, my responsibility to the New York Yankees, the fan base of New York."
PHOTOS: Alex Rodriguez through the years
Earlier Monday, Rodriguez and attorney David Cornwell released statements that expressed more disdain for MLB's penalty than the Yankees, though Friday's outburst by Rodriguez and Monday's statement together illustrate the battle he's fighting on two fronts.
"I am disappointed with the penalty and intend to appeal and fight this through the process," Rodriguez said. "I am eager to get back on the field and be with my teammates in Chicago tonight. I want to thank my family, friends and fans who have stood by myself through all this.
Said Cornwell: "It is regrettable that the Commissioner's office has taken this unprecedented action. Major League Baseball has gone well beyond the authority granted to it in its Joint Drug Agreement and the Basic Agreement. Consequently, we will appeal the discipline and pursue all legal remedies available to Alex."
For Rodriguez, there is plenty at stake. After this season, he has at least $86 million remaining on a contract that runs through 2017. In fact, Rodriguez entered Monday wiht 647 home runs; he will receive a $6 million bonus if he hits 13 more to tie Willie Mays for fourth place on baseball's all-time list.
He should get support on the ground level for that quest; Rodriguez's teammates have largely stood by him him as he's rehabbed from hip surgery.
The enmity, instead, has been between player and front office, with GM Brian Cashman famously telling Rodriguez to "shut up" in profane fashion when Rodriguez tweeted news of his impending rehab games.
Now, that player is returning to the field as Cashman's third baseman for the foreseeable future.

Job done for Tigers
A review of the weekend's action in the Heineken Cup.
- Related Content
Leicester collected the bonus-point, 33-25 victory over Treviso they required at Welford Road to stay in contention for a Heineken Cup quarter-final place.
Tigers closed the gap on unbeaten Pool Two leaders Toulouse after Julian Salvi's try double underpinned an emphatic first-half display.
Centre Manu Tuilagi and substitute wing Matt Smith also touched down, with fly-half George Ford kicking four conversions, including the extras to a 17th-minute penalty try.
But it proved far from plain sailing as Treviso scored three tries of their own through flanker Dean Budd, prop Lorenzo Cittadini and wing Christian Loamanu, while Alberto Di Bernardo landed two conversions and two penalties.
Leinster picked up a losing bonus point in a titanic 15-12 clash with Pool Five leaders Clermont Auvergne at the Stade Marcel Michelin.
Despite a first defeat in this season's Heineken Cup, the defending champions emerged with a clutch of positives ahead of next Saturday's return date in Dublin.
Sean O'Brien had an impressive return to European action in a barnstorming back row unit, with Fergus McFadden and cup debutant Andrew Goodman the pick of the visitors' backs.
Jonathan Sexton kicked four penalties for the province, a tally matched by Clermont's Morgan Parra, with Brock James landing a crucial drop goal just before half-time.
Fourteen-man Cardiff had their aspirations ended as they fell to a third straight Pool Six defeat at the hands of Montpellier who won 35-24 on Sunday.
Teenage fly-half Rhys Patchell slotted seven penalties and a drop goal for the home side, who had scrum-half Lloyd Williams sent off after 25 minutes for a tip tackle on opposite number Benoit Paillaugue.
Pierre Berard, Mamuka Gorgodze and Timoci Nagusa all crossed for Montpellier, with the classy Paillaugue kicking 20 points.
The Blues' defeat adds to the gloom that has enveloped Welsh rugby, with the regions managing a collective one win from nine Heineken Cup matches to go with the national side's run of seven straight defeats.
Toulouse put the Ospreys to the sword 30-14 with a rampant second-half performance to take control of Pool Two on Saturday.
The four-time winners led just 12-7 at the interval thanks to quick-fire tries from Florian Fritz and Yannick Nyanga.
The Ospreys hit back with a try from Kahn Fotuali'i but the second half was a one-team affair as Vincent Clerc, Census Johnson, Yoann Huget all crossed over.
The visitors again responded with a try, this time from Ryan Bevington, but it was too little too late.
Ronan O'Gara's right boot helped Munster to a narrow 15-9 win in this cagey clash with Saracens at Thomond Park.
O'Gara had a five-from-five kicking return, whereas his young counterpart Owen Farrell missed four of his seven shots at the posts.
Farrell redeemed himself by converting a 79th minute penalty for a losing bonus point which keeps Saracens at the top of Pool 1, albeit with Munster now level on 10 points ahead of next week's return fixture in Watford.
Outside-half Gareth Steenson kicked 17 points as Exeter secured their first-ever win in the competition with a Pool 5 22-16 success over Scarlets at Parc y Scarlets.
Scrum-half Haydn Thomas gave the visitors the perfect start with a try on five minutes and the Chiefs led throughout from there on.
The Scarlets, who saw Wales fly-half Rhys Priestland carried from the field with an ankle injury in the second half, did grab back a late penalty try from a scrum but it was not enough as they crashed to a third straight European defeat.
Harlequins remain on course for top spot in Pool Three after a comprehensive 57-14 victory over Zebre in Parma.
The Aviva Premiership pacesetters ran in eight tries to secure a winning bonus point.
Sam Smith scored a brace with Nick Easter, Matt Hopper, Rob Buchanan and Ben Botica also among the scorers for Connor O'Shea's high fliers, who also managed two scrum penalty tries.
The most Zebre could manage on a bitterly cold day was a first-half breakaway try by Leonardo Sarto and a late consolation for Alberto Chillon.
Jonny Wilkinson's Toulon made it three wins out of three in Pool Six but did little to justify their tag of favourites with an unconvincing 17-6 success against struggling Sale.
Filthy conditions at the Salford City Stadium did much to bridge the gulf in class between a star-studded side leading the French Top 14 and one propping up the Aviva Premiership, but the visitors did just enough to secure the crucial points, with winger David Smith scoring the only try and Wilkinson kicking four penalties from seven attempts.
Racing Metro kept their hopes alive with a hard fought 19-9 victory over Edinburgh at Stade Yves du Manoir.
Tries from Juan Jose Imhoff and Eddy Ben Arous either side of the interval proved the difference as the Scottish outfit remained winless in the competition.
Edinburgh stay bottom of Pool One, with no points to their name, but they restored some pride with the committed performance.
Ulster extended the only unbeaten record in Europe with a comprehensive 25-6 victory at Franklin's Garden that all but extinguished Northampton's ambitions.
Tries from the outstanding Andrew Trimble and fellow wing Tommy Bowe had put Ulster, runners-up in this competition last year, in command at the interval.
Ulster pushed on to seal their 13th consecutive victory of the campaign with a slick try from full-back Jared Payne and Dan Tuohy's last-minute try, which sealed the Pool Four bonus point.
Glasgow saw their hopes extinguished in the other match in Pool Four as they failed to get the bonus point win they needed as Castres won 9-6.
The match was a poor advert for European rugby - one of brutal frontal assaults relieved by long kicks and penalty awards and was little reward for the 3,348 spectators who turned up on a freezing night.
Ultimately it was decided by the boot with three successful penalties from Castres' Rory Kockott outdoing the pair from Glasgow's Scott Wight.
Fetu'u Vainikolo's try helped Connacht to a 22-14 victory over Biarritz at the Galway Sportsground in Pool Three.
The Tongan winger's first-half try was supplemented by 17 points from Dan Parks' boot to keep the Irish province in contention for a maiden appearance in the last eight of Europe's premier club competition.
Biarritz skipper Imanol Harinordoquy scored his side's only try of the match with Dimitri Yachvili kicking the other points.
