Eye shadow summer trends have been given an injection of colour this season as bold, bright hues hot off the international fashion runways make a major impression.
The in-vogue looks are not for the fainthearted and encompass shimmering, punchy shades including tangerine, midnight blue and steely thunder enhanced with glitter.
These dramatic colours demand attention so keep the rest of your makeup simple to accentuate your eyes.
Pastels are the other movers and shakers, with deliciously romantic paint box shades like turquoise, spearmint and fairy floss pink being top of the pops.
Meanwhile, metallics, gold and varying versions of purple hold their own, while classic neutrals including taupe, beige and russet continue to be daytime favourites.
For perfect results every time, frame your eyes by defining your brows. Use a brow liner pencil to fill in the brow shape and sharpen your look. Line both top and bottom eyelids with eyeliner. Slightly flick outwards towards the temples to create a wing-like effect.
For extra intensity and to set the liner, apply a smokey black shadow over the liner.
Curl your eyelashes as well and use a good mascara to create thick, lush lashes that will complete your transformation.

Jets Still Can't Finish
Nation World HQ
November 29 2011 09:44PM
For about two weeks, Winnipeg Jets head coach Claude Noel has worried that his team can't finish games. In fact, on Tuesday morning, Noel said, "We've taken a few two-goal leads this year and we haven't been able to finish. That's what worries me most right now, our ability to finish."
He had every reason to be concerned on Tuesday night at Winnipeg's downtown MTS Centre.
The Jets had a 4-3 lead with 10 1/2 minutes left to play and gave up three unanswered goals to the not-necessarily sparkling Ottawa Senators and lost their first game of a five-game home stand -- and the first game of 13 out of 15 at home -- 6-4 to the visiting Sens. That's not a good way to start OR finish.
The Jets had one-goal leads twice -- at home -- and blew both of them. And after the game Nioel was not happy.
"To tell you I'm disappointed is putting it mildly," the coach said. "I don't think we played intelligently. We found every way to lose it. We couldn't find a way to muster it up. Some things were exposed tonight. We weren't thinking very good, very clearly. It was a lack of intelligence.
"We started the game playing cute and simple and we'll never win playing the way we did in that first period. Look at the goals they scored. What are you thinking? Penalties again. Same stuff.
"We can't close out games. That's what happens to us. You know, to play in this league you have to manage 15 minutes of your brain a night. And when we come back off the road we don't do it. When I watched that game, I had no comfort. There was no comfortable point for me in that game. Not at any time.
"But it's just one game, you know. But it was a game we wanted to win. Their will was good, and you can't beat your guys up, but we just weren't very smart. And that was a big game for us. Carolina lost, Washington lost, we really could have picked something up. We could have got within one point of Washington (for second in the Southeast). But we didn't win. It's only one game and we're home the entire month of December. We have to be better than that and I think we will be.
"We still can't lose sight of that eighth-place line. That's what I really think we're battling for. We have to be able to get back to .500. That's what we need to focus on right now. We need to play well and play more consistently. We also need to stay out of the penalty box. That's what we have to do a lot more of."
The coach, one of the most candid and insightful people in the NHL, summed it up pretty well. The Jets were exposed on Tuesday night. This is a team that doesn't play well in its first game at home after a road trip. It's a team that can't hold a lead, doesn't play responsibly enough in its own zone, has a defense that takes far too many unnecessary chances and has a group of players who take far too many dumb penalties.
On the bright side, Evander Kane scored twice, now has 12 goals on the season (he had 19 all of last year), and has scored seven goals in his last seven games. He played on a line with Blake Wheeler and Bryan Little on Tuesday and they were clearly the best line on the ice for the Jets. In a game of minuses (captain Andrew Ladd was minus-4), Kane was plus-two, Wheeler was plus-one and every one else was even or minus.
"We kind of let this one slip away," said Kane, who was, by far, the best Jet on the ice. "We came out in the third period and had some good jump, but we got a couple of penalties and that kind of changed everything. Right from the beginning of the year we didn't want to slip too far away from that eighth-place line. That's what we have to focus on now. We have to get to .500."
The Jets aren't going to get to .500 if they blow leads at home with only 11 minutes to play. In fact, just when you think this team is taking a step toward a more elite status in the NHL, it takes a dumb penalty, gives up a couple of bad goals and suddenly finds itself on the short end of a hockey game it should have won.
The Jets now have 12 games at home (out of 14) in the month of December. However, a few more "dumb" losses this month and that elusive eighth-place line could become unreachable.

Dempsey Jeffs is the Bulldog quarterback with Kyle Johansen, Ryne Jones and Jordon Gee at running back. Outstanding players on defense are Jesse McArthur and Jordan Phelps. Coach Allred had this to say about his winning team, "These kids have really been fun to be around as they have played really hard. This is a pretty good bunch of kids.. They've done really well."
Canyon View is coached by Head Coach Doug Mecham and assisted by Chris Justice and Kelly Mortenson. The Cougars defeated Helper 39-0 and lost to each of the other schools by two points. San Rafael comes to Canyon View this Wednesday at 2 p.m. Mont Harmon will close out the season next week.
Blake Mortenson is the quarterback of the Cougars and Wade Bohn, Skyler Jensen and Mike Jones are the running backs. Nick Oviatt is a good receiver. Outstanding lineman on both offense and defense are Bobby Erickson, Zak Clement, Justin Miller and Cyal Christmas.

Lauren Dimet Waters over at Second City Style loves the Karen Kane Faux Leather Leggings (L73511). She wrote a "The Thing I am Loving Today" post about them, mentioning some of the great qualities of these leggings. They're a great statement piece, but comfortable. They fit well, but they're not skin tight. Overall, she loves the versatility, saying "I pretty much plan to wear them with everything this fall and winter."
She also made an entire post talking about the Fall '13 trend: Leather and Faux Leather Leggings. As she said, the leather legging trend is exploding this fall, and the Karen Kane legging is a great, animal friendly, way to rock this look.

It's a trap...
Illuminati, heh I guess they couldn't chose anything else.
Manga reading list: Bleach, Naruto, Katekyo Hitman Reborn, One Piece, Code Breaker, Gamaran, Kuroko No Basket, Fairy Tail, The World God Only Knows, Kimi No Iru Machi, Good Ending, Medaka Box, Nisekoi, D.Gray-Man, Ao No Exorcist, Freezing, Magi - Labyrinth of Magic, Soul Eater, Rosario Vampire Season II, Iris Zero, Ubell Blatt, Bloody Cross, Sun-Ken Rock, and Infinite Stratos,
I'm pretty sure that Satan is observing through his eyes, but perhaps it only activates when the MC unleashes his true form.
It's understandable that Yukio could survive while being in the same womb as a half devil, but isn't it strange that the MC didn't burst out his flames ? Or, if he in fact did, how come Yukio was resistant to it ? Isn't it strange that both of them survived, while their mother was burning from the inside while being possessed by Satan (it was like that IIRC ) ?
I have missed too many chapters on this.
Time to go on a reading marathon.

A pie in the sky?
Be prepared to witness some actual sword techniques from Rin and some proper "demon etiquette" perhaps.
Be also prepared for Yukio coming to the "light" side, kukukuku, the question is, to which one ?.
I just realized that there are two extra chapters (46.5 and 46.6)that I haven't yet read, lol :p.
Now this was a good chapter. The glasses guy sure have good eyes for analysis, since he did mention that "he" would be great as a Knight.
So we will now have a small? rescue arc, then one year of training and the war, after it the return of the king, the final fight, then the epilogue ?
So Satan, Lucifer and Samael are three different demons in this story.
Is it me or Satan's descendants the strongest demons ?
If we count Rin and Yukio, the Cross Academy has at least 4 Satan's descendants on their side, so does this mean that 5 (or 6, it depends if Satan is part of the Eight Demon Kings and if the Eight Demon Kings are directly related to Satan) of them are on Satan's side ?

Tricia P. Zwahlen has taught in the Emery School District for the past 18 years. She is a great teacher and always taking time for her students. As part of her curriculum she has been using the magazine, "Time For Kids" ever since it started, eight years ago. The last four years she has been completing monthly surveys for this periodical, a vital tool for teachers and a unique avenue for her students to connect with the world around them.
Recently she was honored for her efforts in this aspect of her teaching. "Time For Kids" flew Zwahlen back to New York to a special teacher's forum in New York City. She was one of 10 teachers selected from our nation to attend this special teacher's round-table. There was a representative from Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Texas, California, two from New York, and then Miss Zwahlen was there to represent Utah.
When the teachers assembled at the Time-Life Building in New York they were greeted by the entire "Time For Kids" staff. They asked each of the teachers throughout the days meeting many important questions that will help shape the new look of "Time For Kids" in the future.
When the required agenda had been completed Miss Zwahlen was able to visit many historic places in New York: The Statue of Liberty, Battery Park, Times Square, The Rockefeller Center, St. Patrick's Cathedral, The Empire State Building, Ground Zero, Radio City Music Hall, and The Smithsonian Native American Museum. These are just to name a few.
Huntington Elementary appreciates Miss Zwahlen and all she does for our school. She is a very gifted teacher and always willing to give, "Time For Kids!"

Holy Snap! People are giving us mad props!
January 28 2008 10:19AM
Well, it was a long and cold All-Star Weekend. And like so many of the NHLers who showed up at the All-Star Game, we too thought we would mail one in this weekend and "think" of posts, but not actually write anything.
So imagine our surprise when we checked our traffic count and found that it went through the roof over the weekend! How could this be, we wondered? Nothing really happened—it was the All-Star break for heavens sake.
Then we saw this.
A sweet write up on the Nation by Journal writer David Staples, under the heading "Item: Best of the Oilogosphere." Staples writes, "I don't know much about this blog, Oilers Nation, other than it has humorous graphics…Having read through a number of posts, I can tell you this blog is worth reading and linking to. Someone is putting in a lot of effort, is posting regularly and has some acute observations about the Oilers. The blog also has a major presence on Facebook, if you're into that kind of thing."
Oh baby, that's some sweet sweet literary justice:
- "Someone is putting in a lot of effort"—guilt as charged.
- "Humerous graphics"—could that be the cartoon "Last Oiler Fan on Earth?" which debuted to scorn and ridicule? Oh man.
- "Major presence on Facebook"—you know it! 992 members and counting!
Just as we were taking the lid off a 24 of Jack Daniels to celebrate our victory we found this: a shout out from PunjabiOil—a well-known Oilers blog. "Hilarious. Great site. I recommend reading some other entries on that site."
Hilarious? Great site? WTF? Two shout outs during one weekend?
*turns into a puff of joy dust*
January 28 2008, 10:26AM
I have been reading your articles from the beginning and have enjoyed every one of them!!!!! I am glad you are receiving the "props" you deserve. Now I am no Dave (as I like to call him) Staples but I as well would like to give you mad props.
Keep it up nation
January 28 2008, 11:22AM
Very nice site, and you'd get even more hits if you had an RSS feed for news readers.
Consider it, please. Keep up the good work.
Ha! Nicely done, Nation.
I'm with Paul; RSS would be key, that way we don't have to hit refresh every half hour to know if you've posted something new or not
Thanks everybody!
Paul Kelly - we have a vague understanding of what an RSS feed is, and we will get on it! Thanks for the suggestion!
I remember the hype when this site was opening! Love the site i always come here before the Oiler Website. And when your site went down i lost a peice of me. KEEP IT UP!!
Definitely an awesome site! Keep it up!

Approximately 56,000 Jews lived in the city on the eve of World War II, making up almost one-quarter of the city's population. The German army occupied Krakow during the first week of the September 1939 invasion of Poland, and immediately began persecution of Jews in the city. Under the German occupation authorities, the Jews of Krakow were required to report for forced labor, wear a white armband with a blue Star of David to mark themselves as Jewish, and register their property. From September 1940-March 1941, the Jews in Krakow and elsewhere in Poland were concentrated into ghettos.
The Krakow ghetto was established in early March 1941. The Germans had expelled thousands of Jews from Krakow by this time, but about 15,000 remained in the city. The ghetto was located in the southern part of the city, rather than the traditional Jewish quarter. The Germans concentrated between 15,000 and 20,000 Jews from Krakow and surrounding towns in the ghetto, which was enclosed by barbed-wire fences and a stone wall. Several German factories in the ghetto used Jewish forced labor, and some Jews also worked at non-Jewish businesses outside the ghetto. Oskar Schindler's enamel factory was one such business. There were also two forced labor camps outside the ghetto.
Thousands of Jews from the Krakow ghetto were deported to Belzec, where they were murdered during Operation Reinhard actions in 1942. The Germans liquidated the ghetto in March 1943, shooting about 2,000 Jews in the ghetto, transferring another 2,000 to Plaszow forced labor camp, and deporting the remaining 3,000 to Auschwitz-Birkenau. About 2,450 of those deported to Auschwitz were gassed upon arrival. The majority of the Jews transferred to Plaszow were later killed in mass shooting operations carried out by the SS between September and December 1943. The survivors were deported to Auschwitz-Birkenau.
Krakow was liberated by Soviet Forces on January 19, 1945. As Jews returned from the Soviet Union, the Jewish population of the city expanded to about 10,000. However, many survivors emigrated in the face of pogroms and murders of Jews, so that there were only a few hundred Jews remaining in Krakow by the early 1990s.
The memorial to the Jews of the Jewish ghetto in Krakow was inaugurated on 8 December 2005. The winning project by Krakow architects Piotr Lewicki and Kazimierz Latak included 33 steel and cast iron chairs (1.4 m high) in the square and 37 smaller chairs (1.2 m high) standing on the edge of the square and at tram stops. The memorial's chairs intrude to bus and tram stops and are used by locals awaiting transportation, suggesting that anyone can be a victim. The theme of empty chairs was also used at the Oklahoma City Monument at the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building blast site to reflect "absence."

Grains: 1 slice of bread, 1 ounce of ready-to-eat cereal, 1/2 cup of cooked cereal, rice or pasta (about the size of a 1/2 baseball).
Vegetables: 1 cup of raw leafy vegetables (about the size of a small fist), 1/2 cup of other vegetables or 1/2 cup of vegetable juice.
Fruits: 1 medium fruit (medium is defined as the size of a baseball); 1/2 cup chopped, cooked or canned fruit; or 1/2 cup juice.
Meat, Poultry, Fish, Dry Beans and Nuts: 2 to 3 ounces of cooked lean meat, poultry or fish; 1/2 cup cooked dry beans; or 2 tablespoons of peanut butter.
Milk, Yogurt and Cheese: 1 cup of fat-free or low-fat milk or yogurt, 1 1/2 ounces fat-free or low-fat cheese.
I can't possibly eat that many servings of vegetables, etc.!
Before you decide that you can't eat as many servings of ANYTHING as suggested, think small fist, baseball, hockey puck and a computer mouse. These are all things that describe a "serving size." The comparisons will help you eat more of the things you need and less of the things you don't.
- One serving of raw leafy vegetables or a baked potato should be about the size of a small fist. A serving is a lot smaller than most people think.
- A cup of fat-free or low-fat milk or yogurt, or a medium fruit should equal about the size of a baseball.
- A half a bagel is about the size of a hockey puck and represents a serving from the grains group.
- Three ounces of cooked lean meat or poultry is about the size of a computer mouse. Three ounces of grilled fish is about the size of a checkbook.
- A teaspoon of soft margarine is about the size of one die.
- An ounce of fat-free or low-fat cheese is about the size of six stacked dice.

Martin Greenfield Clothiers
239 Varet Street Brooklyn, NY 11206
Martin Greenfield is glad to be making clothes like he used to. On a rack on the third floor of Mr. Greenfield's Brooklyn factory, the pants are long-rise, the jackets long and lean, the fabrics unusual--bright, napped, three-dimensional. "Everyone wears English high backs," says Mr. Greenfield, referring to the high-waisted, split-back trousers favored in English tailoring. These pieces are not the work of a young designer with an anachronistic vision, but rather the suits and outerwear Greenfield has been turning out for HBO's Jersey gangster epic Boardwalk Empire.
Martin schools me.
Greenfield needed to make two coats--one would be worn in the rain.
The Boardwalk Empire work is only a tiny percentage of Greenfield's business, but it's clearly disproportionately enjoyable for Martin and his sons, Tod and Jay, who help run what's become a family trade (before joining his father, Tod worked in theatre). After giving me a tour of the facilities, Tod let me pore over binders of fit test photos for the actors in Boardwalk Empire. Steve Buscemi (Nucky Thompson) and Michael Pitt (Jimmy Darmody) are half in-character, half out in polaroids taken in Greenfield's wood-panelled third floor fitting room. More binders contain 1920s catalogues and swatches to help Greenfield get the cuts and details true to the setting.
Fok and Tod Greenfield talk shop.
"They're very careful," Tod Greenfield says. "You'll see the lower-level gangsters in worn-out suits, the styles are supposed to be two or three years old. The top guys are wearing the current stuff." Current via 1921. "We've been doing some really interesting stuff for Harrow. Do you know the character? You really start to like him toward the end of the first season." I assume as much as one can like a ruthless henchman in a tin steampunk mask. Tod relates that they turned one suit over to HBO in pristine condition, only to have it come back for alterations 24 hours later, tattered. The costume department had washed it in a machine with bicycle chains to add some character. It's not the first time TV and film have turned to Greenfield. "I made the suits for the first Wall Street," Martin tells me. "But not the new one. After, Michael Douglas asked to keep every one." Douglas's request is not surprising--although Wall Street's costumes are 80s icons, the workmanship and consideration that went into making them are just as relevant to customers today.
A tailor at work.
Those customers, increasingly, are designers that you wouldn't necessarily guess would seek out an old-school maker like Greenfield. On the floor during our visit were dozens of jackets for Scott Sternberg's Band of Outsiders, probably the slimmest, most modern take on prep-wear around. Also in the works were pieces for sharp-tailored Rag and Bone, country-by-way-of-the-LES Freeman's Sporting Club, and one of Greenfield's major customers, Brooks Brothers Golden Fleece.
Band of Outsiders in the works.
Tod gives me the full tour. On the second floor of the building, which still features gas outlets for lamps, dozens of employees are working on tailored jackets. Although there's not a formal decor scheme in the factory, a theme is pride. There are American flags, flag stickers, union posters, and dozens of photos of the people who put the suits together for Greenfield--they look like family photos, except Danny Glover is in some of them.
Greenfield is one of the last union shops making clothes in NY. At one time there were thousands.
The room is laid out in stations against the exterior wall, making it easy to follow the piecing together of jackets. A suit jacket or sportcoat may seem simple garment to lay people, but here in one of New York's last cathedrals to suitmaking, the sophistication is clear. Men and women cut fabric for the chest and lapels, then baste in the "canvas," the fabric that gives a jacket shape in the body. Greenfield uses a camelhair blend. "We use fabric from Italy. We used to buy our canvas in the United States. Soon we'll have to buy it from China." Tod Greenfield visits again and again the theme of America's severely depleted garment industry. "We just bailed out the auto industry, but we did nothing [for the garment trade]." It's all going abroad, "and it didn't have to go."
Presses line the walls.
Tod shows off some handiwork.
Tod turns a shoulder inside out to show the handstitching on the armscye, where the sleeve meets the shoulder. Employees in the factory work on a wide variety of machines, from old Union Special and Singer sewing machines (one Singer has been in use since 1938) to presses that shape the evolving garment, to higher tech machines only a couple years old, but certain processes still need to be done by hand in order to get the right structure, according to Tod. A Reece Imperial cuts buttonholes before they're handsewn. The machine has run 727 million cycles over its century of work. As we follow jackets around the floor, some are just coming off the presses, and Tod turns them to show off the work. Greenfield has found success using traditional methods but being flexible on style.
Greenfield's oldest running equipment dates to the early 1900s, when predecessor GGG was already making clothes in Brooklyn.
Ooh, ticket pocket.
Tod is reluctant to describe a "house style"--it's all dependent on the customer, whether it's one of about 20 designers or 30 tailoring shops currently working with the factory. Tod says the business these days is about half made-to-measure and half off-the-rack suiting. Although Greenfield is not generally open to direct visits for made-to-measure suits, they recently sold a number of suits directly through Gilt Groupe, a site that sells a large volume of men's and women's clothing online, mostly at a discount from retail.
Greenfield house label.
This lady was FOCUSED.
"I didn't think there'd be guys out there willing to pay," says Tod. After all, suits were selling for nearly $1000, and Gilt shoppers were used to cut prices. But the suits and sportcoats sold very quickly. "When Gilt was getting leftover stock from designers, they weren't getting staple pieces--like navy suits--in standard sizes. It was patterns in small and large sizes." The "average guy" with a need for a wearable, domestically produced suit didn't have a lot of options, and they jumped at the chance to get a Greenfield-built piece.
This part of the shop is a virtual greenhouse, maintained by a green-thumbed employee.
Tod shows me some of the more interesting pieces currently being produced. One designer had ordered a sleek suit with hidden buttons and an organza-like lining that allows the wearer to see the interior construction. Another jacket, a sample being rushed through, was made with a herringbone fabric that's coated on one side for water fastness. The flap pockets were a small victory, as doubling the fabric and keeping it workable was no small task.
The red marks rush orders.
Coated herringbone fabric was a litte harder to work with, but Greenfield can work with almost any fabric, a possibility, Tod said, more modern shops with newer equipment do not offer.
As we walk around, feeling fabrics and looking over shoulders at the intricate work being done, Greenfield's employees barely take notice. This is the last suit factory with over 100 employees in NY, but it's still a factory, after all, and they're at work. They're also used to interlopers from the press and design world. David Blaine had just been in to work with Greenfield on a dinner suit with properties particular to the demands of a planned performance. While we were taking photos, a designer unobtrusively goes over patterns with another Greenfield worker. With a Brooklyn accent, administrative staff pages the Greenfields and other staff when they're needed. From the outside this is just another brick building on a Bushwick street choked with dirty snow, but inside everything is humming.
Custom sleeve linings.
Trousers are made on the ground floor, although the trouser shop has moved a few times, even to Manhattan. The third floor has offices and room for fittings. That's also where all the Boardwalk Empire goodies are kept. Martin presides over it all, as he has since he bought the business in 1978. He worked there, when it was known as GGG, for 30 years. So that's 63 years of tailored clothing expertise discussing Steve Buscemi's new, old suit. "When I was younger, if you needed a suit, needed a jacket, you went to a tailor. You got it made." Martin Greenfield tells me. That's not the case for 99% of suits purchased in the United States today, but the Greenfield factory beats on, a boat against the current.
Maybe I should have dressed up.

Luxury automakers have created sub-brands within their flagship models by stretching the wheelbases a few inches and the prices a few thousand dollars.
The long-wheelbase models reek of stature, because they bear more than a passing resemblance to limousines, and they are pretty hot stuff among some well-heeled buyers.
BMW says they are about 70% of all 7 Series sales. Audi says 80% of its A8 buyers go long, and Mercedes-Benz has, in effect, only long versions of the S-Class sedans, because they are the length of other makers' long-wheelbase (LWB) models.
They aren't simply for show. For what amounts to a relatively modest price difference (when you're starting at about $80,000) the long versions provide back seats with enough room to merit their own ZIP codes. Taking friends to dinner, or toting long-legged kids cross-country, is a lot nicer with so much room back there.
BMW gave its 7 Series sedans some new goodies for the 2013 model year. Among drivetrain updates: The 740 entry-level 7 Series cars now offer all-wheel drive as well as rear-drive just like the others, and all 7s get eight-speed automatic transmissions, up from the six-speeds most had.
The 740s have turbocharged six-cylinder engines, 750s have turbo V-8s and 760s have turbo V-12s. Each has standard and longer "L" versions.
Test Drive settled into a 740Li to see if the base turbocharged six has enough power for such a big fella, to check out the new eight-speed, and to see what compromises, if any, the extra length imposes. For long-wheelbase buyers, the 740Li seems appealing, because it has the size and style of the other "L" versions but a lower price and better mileage.
Driving experience. The first thing that happens when driving the 740Li is that you feel like a chauffeur. You tend to concentrate on smoothness and elegance behind the wheel, rather than exercising the spirited turbo six. You're tempted to pick up passengers at random to dragoon into the back seat.
But the roominess, comfort and, in heavily optioned versions such as the test car, the personal attention you get in back are hard to resist. Not only heating and cooling, but also massage. Not unique, but unusual and a treat — if you can find somebody to drive so you can ride in back.
One thing chauffeurs learn is that they should halt so gently that the passenger can barely sense when movement stops. Try it. It's quite a challenge. In the 740Li, it's a satisfying and fun exercise because the brakes work well.
The 740Li is no balky boat to pilot:
The 3-liter turbo six, similar to what motivates a more common 5 Series, is sufficient to yank the 2-ton sedan to smile speed in brisk fashion. And makes spirited sounds doing so.
If you had five people aboard, a trunk filled with luggage and were climbing the Rocky Mountains, you might wish for more pep. But you won't traumatically revisit those days of your youth trying to do the same thing in a Volkswagen Bus.
Handling agility belies the car's size. No need to be more cautious than in a sedan of somewhat lesser size. BMW's suspension tuning remains first rate, providing responsive handling without a harsh ride.
BMW does nice eight-speed automatics. The one in the 740Li calls little attention to itself because it simply works right: shifting up or down. People new to BMW might be put off, however, by the operation of the electronic switch masquerading as a gearshift lever.
So, no need to sacrifice driving pleasure to get the extra room of an "L." BMW does inflict some things on you, though:
Big doors. If you open a door all the way, then buckle up, you won't be able to reach the door handle to close the door. If you're attentive, you can find the stops that hold the doors partway open, but habit surely will make that the exception.
Big turns. The long car's turning circle dictates careful parking.
Complications. BMW has its own sequence for shutting off the car and for unlocking it from the inside. Even after you own a BMW awhile, you'll still get it wrong now and then.
Perhaps perversely, the iDrive main control, the pinnacle of absurd complexity when it was introduced years ago on the 7 Series, has become much simpler, more intuitive. Once you get the hang of the big console knob and the buttons surrounding it, it's among the best control systems.
Pricing. The 740Li starts at a bit more than $78,000, or $4,000 more than the standard 740i. In that neighborhood, not so bad. But it's hard to imagine a buyer not wanting many of the options on the test car, which weighed in at just less than $110,000.
Options add up. Once your guests realize they get no massage because your thrift denied them the Luxury Rear Seating Package ($3,700), will they ever go to the opera with you again?
The M Sport Package ($4,600) may seem superfluous, but it's why the car has such a nice ride/handling balance.
Perhaps you listen so little to music that the Bang & Olufsen Sound System ($3,700) is over the top. Until you hear it once.
Could you skip the Rear Entertainment Package ($2,800) because everybody in back will be glued to smartphones and tablets?
Long-wheeelbase, top-end sedans are a fixture. The 740Li has the class, comfort and performance to be a reasonable choice.
What? Update of 7 Series flagship. Four-door, five-passenger, full-size luxury sedan. Rear-wheel or all-wheel drive. Standard or long-wheelbase (Li) versions.
When: On sale since August.
Where? Made in Germany.
How much? 740Li (tested) starts at $78,195 including $810 shipping, which is $4,000 more than 740i standard-wheelbase model. Heavily optioned test car was $109,795. Starting prices of other 7 Series models range from $81,195 to $140,200.
What makes it go? 740 models have 3-liter turbocharged six-cylinder rated 315 horsepower at 5,800 rpm, 332 pounds-feet of torque at 1,300 rpm. 750 models have 4.4-liter turbo V-8 rated 443 hp at 5,500, 479 lbs.-ft. at 4,000. 760 models have 6-liter turbo V-12 rated 536 hp at 5,250, 553 lbs.-ft. at 1,500. All now have eight-speed automatic transmission.
How big? Long-wheelbase models are 205.3 inches long, 74.9 in. wide, 58.3 in. tall on 126.4-in. wheelbase (5.5 in. longer than standard wheelbase). 740Li weighs 4,350 lbs. Trunk space, 17.7 cubic feet. Turning circle diameter, 41.7 ft. (standard wheelbase, 40 ft.)
How thirsty? 740Li rated 19 miles per gallon in town, 28 on the highway, 22 in city/highway mix. 740Li test car registered 16.6 mpg (6.02 gallons per 100 miles) in mix of city/suburban driving. Burns premium, holds 21.1 gal.
Overall: Extra size brings hassles; standard wheelbase should suit most people.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)
The IPCC was established by UNEP and WMO in 1988 to assess the state of existing knowledge about climate change: its science, the environmental, economic and social impacts and possible response strategies. It has three working groups: Working Group I concentrates on the climate system, Working Group II addresses response options and environmental and socio-economic impacts; and Working Group III assesses economic and social dimensions. IPCC will release its Fourth Assessment report in 2007.

State of Wonder by Ann Patchett was one of the favorite books that I read in 2011.
Marina Sinh works for the Vogel Pharmaceutical Company in Eden Prairie Minnesota. She is sent to the jungles of Brazil to check the progress Dr. Annik Swenson's research project. Dr. Swenson is researching the post-menopausal fertility of the women of the Lakashi tribe. These women are bearing children well into their 70's and even older. Dr. Swenson has been in the Amazon for many years without reporting on her progress. Marina also has a personal reason to accept the assignment. Her lab partner, Anders Eckman, was sent on the same assignment months earlier and never returned. The Company received a brief message from Dr. Swenson stating he had died of a fever. Marina wants to find out more details for herself and his grieving widow.
This novel takes the reader into the Amazon jungle. Marina arrives at her final destination on a pontoon boat. She is minus her luggage which the airlines lost and never found. She finds herself in an area of snake infested rivers, malarial swamps and cannibals.
As always in Ann Patchett's novels there are many interesting characters, from the bohemian couple who seem to protect Dr. Swenson from outsiders to Dr. Swenson herself. This is also a novel with many surprises, an amazing journey for the reader.

For people who thought the browser wars were over, the message coming out of the big 5 vendors is that it is well and truly alive. With Google releasing a new major version of its browser Chrome every 6 weeks, and having already surpassed IE in version number, and major releases for both Microsoft and Mozilla coming soon we are once again deep in the midst of a browser war.
Or so the vendors would have you believe if you follow what they have to say. First Microsoft comes out and says their upcoming browser IE9 has the best HTML5 features – note here the best not the most – then a Mozilla evangelist calls foul and says what about all the features it is missing? I'm sure their are many developers out there who nodded their head in agreement, sadly I wasn't one of them. I was going to write about how pointless this propaganda war was when Faruk Ateş (Author of Modernizr) wrote almost exactly what I was thinking, it is therefore well worth a read.
Sure there are situations where an auto update can be bad, for enterprises being the best example, but for the vast majority of users out there, who don't even get what a browser is, it is practically essential. Security updates can be applied automatically keeping the average joe six-pack safe. IE9 looks to have some excellent new security features, excellent but whats the point if the very people it is supposed to protect don't install it, cause they are scared to break their computer? Take this decision out of their hands as Google have, and leave auto-update as an option to turn off for the savvy, or IT admins.
A byproduct of this for us developers is that if feature a isn't available, but due in the next iteration, we can wait and when it is available we can be safe in the knowledge it will be available to us. Instead we are left saying if only IE9 had drag and drop just like Firefox 4, when in reality even if it did all the people using Firefox haven't upgraded from 3.6 so don't have it anyway.
IE9 looks good, and I'm sure down the line IE10 will be even better, but it matters not to the developers, cause we can't use all the great new features in the wild. Please browser vendors, take a look at the Chrome model, iterate fast, update immediately, and then perhaps we can push the web forward.

|Babolat RPM Dual String Scores
|String Movement
|Playability Duration
Babolat RPM Dual has some awfully big shoes to fill. This is because it has a very famous older sibling named RPM Blast. To distinguish itself, RPM Dual comes colored in a black and white swirl. It's also infused with titanium, which makes it the most durable member of the RPM family. For our playtest team, RPM Dual not only provided excellent control, but it also retained its playability longer than a great many of the polys we've hit. And since this string is treated with the same spin-friendly coating found in RPM Blast, it should come as no surprise that one of our playtesters gave it a 9.8 out of 10 for spin. As for the feel, we found this string played firm and crisp, with one player needing only a minor tension drop to achieve sufficient comfort. Ultimately, RPM Dual looks like a promising option for the big hitter who wants excellent control and durability but also wants longer lasting playability than the average poly.
Though our team did not agree on the exact power level of RPM Dual, neither playtester found it completely dead (like the stiffest polys) nor super lively (like the most elastic co-polys). For Troy, RPM Dual was decidedly low powered. He said, "Though some may view the low power as a negative, I enjoyed it throughout this playtest. This string is about as low powered as you can find in a modern co-poly string, though I didn't find it to feel dead or muted like some first generation polyesters. The firm, low-powered feel let me swing freely without fear of overhitting. I definitely noticed a drop in power compared to the original RPM Blast, which I feel is a good thing."
Chris said, "I found this to be a fairly low-powered co-poly. I was taking big cuts at the ball and getting solid depth and pace. While not as dead and low powered as a traditional poly, this string was firm and crisp on flat shots. When I was hitting with a lot of spin the string opened up a bit and offered a tad more pop. I was surprised with the power I was getting on both heavy slice and topspin shots. I felt like I was getting the ball to push through the court very well, yet the firm nature of the string offered lots of control. I hit this string in two very heavy racquets and felt I could have strung both higher to lessen the power level -- a first for me with a Babolat poly-based string."
Like RPM Blast, RPM Dual is constructed with a slippery silicone coating to allow the main strings to slide out of position before snapping back with great force. The result for Chris was exceptional spin. He said, "I was getting solid spin from this string. Just as I found from RPM Blast, this string grabbed the ball very well and spat it out with lots of spin. I was getting all the bite needed to bend in a down-the-line passing shot, carve an angle or roll a lob. I liked how I could confidently stay on the gas with this string and trust in its grab to spin the ball in. The high level of control and the grab this string offered allowed me to swing fast all the time and get even more spin on the ball."
Unlike Chris, Troy didn't find the magical spin potential of RPM Blast, saying, "I found the spin potential of this string to be lower than I would have expected for a string with RPM in the title. I'm not a huge stickler on the spin potential of poly because I feel that I can generate enough spin with almost any poly. In comparison to RPM Blast, this string seemed to have significantly less string snap-back. It felt 'sticky' -- not slick like RPM Blast. I didn't feel that this was a detriment to my game because I can generate lots of spin on the ball with my swing style, but spin wasn't accentuated as much as it was with strings like RPM Blast or Volkl Cyclone."
As a firm string, RPM Dual is not likely to satisfy the player whose tendons and joints require the pillowy plush response of VS Team or Xcel. However, for poly veterans like Chris, this one felt great. He said, "I thought RPM Dual played with impressive comfort for a firm-playing string. I tried the string in two heavy racquets, one stiff and one very, very flexible, and in both the weight of the racquet took away any shock from the stringbed. I actually felt I could have upped the reference tension of both string jobs for even more control without the stringbed getting too harsh. I liked how the string opened up on spin shots. It pocketed the ball decently, and that added some comfort to heavy spin shots."
Troy needed to drop the tension a little to find this string's comfort zone. He said, "RPM Dual has a very crisp and firm feel to it; therefore comfort is lower than many of the softer co-polys. I initially strung my racquet at 45 lbs, and I felt the firm-feel this string possesses. The second time around I strung it at 42 lbs, which softened the stringbed just enough without any drop in control. I found this to be the right fit for me."
RPM Dual gave our team such a precise and predictable response that it nearly earned a perfect control score from Troy. He said, "I never once questioned the precision or the connectedness I had when ripping groundstrokes. As I mentioned earlier, I am not a big stickler on spin potential or stiffness of polyester strings, but when it comes to control I am a tough critic. This is about as good as control gets for poly strings. Strings like these are what poly lovers look for when they want to drop bombs from the baseline!"
Although he didn't find quite as much control as Troy, Chris still scored RPM Dual well above average. He said, "The level of control was solid with this string. To find even more control I'm going to see how high I can string it without losing comfort. At 2 lbs over mid (57 lbs) in my weighted up Organix 7 (now 12.3 ounces strung) the string felt livelier than expected. While I was finding my targets well, I was tapping into the spin potential of this string to find added control. With a higher tension I think I could flatten things out a little to hit a faster ball without fear of hitting long."
RPM Dual held up remarkably well for our team. Troy said, "Tension maintenance was pretty impressive for a co-poly string. I found a definite increase in tension maintenance compared to RPM Blast. With RPM Blast the tension dropped significantly after about 6-8 hours of play; with RPM Dual the tension held up pretty well beyond 10 hours of play. The only co-poly on the market to impress me more in terms of playability duration is Luxilon 4G."
"The playability duration was great with this string," said Chris. "As the test wore on I found the same crisp feel and solid level of control. I was also impressed by how the spin quality lasted. Some polys start out offering good spin but die out as the string ages. RPM Dual remained very spin-friendly for the duration of the test."
Troy - "Control, control and control. Tension maintenance was top-notch. Did I mention control? The lack of power in strings like these is what has taken the modern baseline-bashing style of play to the next level."
Chris - "I liked the level of spin and was surprised by how long it lasted and the comfort it offered."
Troy - "Spin potential wasn't its best attribute. I wasn't a huge fan of the multi-color initially, but after a while it grew on me."
Chris - "I didn't find any weaknesses in this string, but then there was no real standout feature to separate it from the pack, either."
Troy - "I played with Gosen Polylon Ice in junior college for the simple fact that it gave me durability and control -- and it was cheap. RPM Dual reminds me of Ice, but with much better tension maintenance. It doesn't make me feel warm and fuzzy inside like Luxilon 4G does. 4G has the best feel and pop in my opinion."
Chris - "More forgiving than Hurricane Tour and longer lasting than RPM Blast, Dual is a solid addition to the Babolat string lineup."

"You can if you can get it to go through the item you are using. Some things are hard for the drill sothat is why the electric one is better. I love making my own things to because you can make them as unique as you want them and no one else will have the same thing. I see so many wonderful things in thrift stores, yard sales or flea markets that I like but do know what to do with and now I do and you are right it is so cost effective and cute."
"This is another super way to plant your succulents with something fun and not just a plain boring pot. I love these cute concrete designs and the faces on them. I never realized that it was so easy to make one of these by using empty soda bottles and the concrete. these would look so cute indoors or out on the patio. How about painting them in glow in the dark paint in different colors for your deck. Wouldn't that look neat. Great tutorial and a video with another kind of planter using a water bottle."
"There at no limits to what you can recycle today and I am so happy to see new things pop up. The hamster wheel wreath is such a cool idea and a great way to plant succulents a different way then just sticking them in pots. I do not see these metal wheels that much any more most are plastic now but if I come across one I will pick it up and try this. I do not have luck with growing these succulents they always die so I am looking to find new ways to try. Anyone looking for something new here is a good one."
"I tried growing strawberries years ago for about 3 season and everyone had success but me so I gave up. I really want to try again and was looking for a good way to plant them and I came across this tutorial. I am going to give this a try because I love fresh strawberries. I love when someone who has tried it and made mistakes lets you know what happened and then tells what worked for them the next time so we do not make that mistake too. Now all I have to do is find my pots or find some and get to work. Can you do beans and cucumbers like that too? Anyone know?"
"I like to recycle and this is a great way to recycle paper towel or even toilet paper rolls instead of throwing them away. I wonder just like jobers77 asked if the brown paper will degrade ? How about the paper towel and toilet paper rolls? This is a great way to start those seeds and keep them warm while they are growing. Add some extras for your friends and family too. I think I am going to give this a try if I can find somewhere to put them. So simple and easy."

Clone of Tetris
Clone of Tetris - 1.3
Ryan Ledford (exsolacyst)
Works just like tetris for the most part. Use LEFT/RIGHT/DOWN to move pieces in that direction. Use UP arrow to rotate the piece. The 'G' Key will display a grid. Pressing ESCAPE while the game is NOT paused will terminate the game (I've paused the game and, out of habbit with other games, pressed ESCAPE to unpause it and exited instead which is why I made it this way). The bg_music.ogg file included was written and recorded by me. I dont mind if you use it for other productions, but please put eXsolacyst in your acknowledgments. Let me know what you think. -ESC
Fixed movement functions. Keys held down will allow for continuous movement excpet for the rotate key which will still only rotate the piece each time it is pressed. Also fixed a bug with game piece #7 (the purple piece), this piece was not properly checking for legal rotations. Thanks again to Mekire for the feedback. -ESC

Pretty purse, but an off color.
"I haven't decided whether to keep this or not. It is really cute, but the color isn't quite a taupe or a beige. It has a light pink tint to it. It doesn't really match anything I've been able to find. The lining is very cheap seeming. It does have 2 small pockets on one side and zipper pocket on the other, but I'm afraid they will rip out. I love the handle and the outside of the purse feels really nice."
