I'll tell you how to decide between heart and diamond. If you can see, heart chins are very pointed, diamonds less defined chin shows a clear difference. Heart is a smooth curved line from chin to hairline, diamond is more chiseled at the ears, creating that effect. Also, diamonds have a wider jawline than forhead, heart's jaw is clearly a lot narrower. My aunty has a heart face and my other has a diamond so it is very easy to differentiate the two. Good luck! :)

Awesome, I cant decide if I have a heart face or diamond face now :( still, 10 stars :D
by PorcelainHeart Wednesday, September 7, 2011 at 11:31PM Report as inappropriate
I'm somewhere between diamond, oval and square. My jawline is a little narrower than my forehead but then when I smile my face looks square, but my hairline is rounded. I have kinda big cheeks, but... now I'm even more confused!

I have always thought I was a Heart Shape but now that I see the Diamond Shaped facial Shape as well, I am a little Confused. It took me long enough to decide on Heart Shape over Oval for myself, but now im wondering about the Diamond being thrown into the mix...hhhmmm...Heart or ?Diamond?!??

It's still a little hard for me to tell what my face shape is. I am torn between square and oval.

Good makeup tips I didn't know! I'm still a bit confused about the difference between heart- and diamond-shaped faces, but I think it's just the picture.
by bukiyounahito Saturday, June 18, 2011 at 07:40AM Report as inappropriate
Thanks... but i m not sure of the shape of face... like is it oval/oblong/square? it is really hard for me to know exactly...
by teema Saturday, June 18, 2011 at 02:59AM Report as inappropriate
Thank you for the Oval makeup advice! Usually when Oval shaped faces are mentioned, there is an extremely unhelpful "wear whatever you want" message, which is not really what I want t hear. At least this article has makeup advice.
by elph37 Friday, June 17, 2011 at 12:58PM Report as inappropriate
I think some faces have features of two or more shapes, making it hard to justify what exactly a person's face shape is.

Wow I had no idea you could find your face shape that way, I've just kind of guessed about mine but I guess I was wrong... however I feel mine changes too much because of weight loss and gain.

by cmiller63 Tuesday, February 8, 2011 at 01:55PM Report as inappropriate
One shape that is missing is the pear shape. It is a very common one and should be listed, a narrow forehead and wider at the cheeks with a round chin. Just hold up a pear and see it it fits your shape. I'm a diamond myself. It' s often over looked because most people put it with an oval. But an oval has a wider chin. The goal for everyone is to be an oval. It's considered the best shape to work with. I say be happy with what God gave you.

Hmm... I think I have a round, full face but if I wasn't so "plump-looking," I think I might be square? This was somewhat helpful but if you're still not certain of your face shape, it won't help much. Ahhhhh! LOL!

To CliniqueLover: does that make you a hearcle? (LOL). I wanted to have a heart shaped face since I was 12 years old, and my best friend had one. I realized how pretty she was and then I hated her. I'm sure you're quite lovely and distinctive.

Developer: Monolith Soft > Publisher: Nintendo > Systems: Wii > Rating: T
Monolith Soft in coordination with Nintendo have brought to you a Wii exclusive that is a must play. Xenoblade Chronicles is the RPG of the decade, bringing together a perfect blend of modern and classic gameplay elements and encasing it in a rich and deep world with exciting combat.
The story opens with two titans battling. Each one mortally wounds the other and they die impaled upon each other's blades. The steel titan Mechonis gave rise to the Mechons, and Bionis of organic flesh gave birth to the Homs and Nopon. The Mechon rise up and sweep down upon the people of Bionis, destroying many of the Hom. A Hom named Duncan wields the Monado, a mysterious blade that can destroy Mechons with ease. He succeeds in turning the tide of battle, but loses the use of his right arm in the process. One year later, Shulk, a mechanically minded youth, delves into the mystery of the Monado. Together with his friends, Shulk's fate becomes entwined with the Monado as the Mechon once again assault those in Bionis.
Xenoblade Chronicles' gameplay is insanely fun and deep. From a traditional experience-point/level-up system to weapons and armor upgrades, a slotting system with crafting, talent trees, skill/ability customization, questing, and more, the RPG elements are vast. Also included is an affection and notoriety system, where your interaction with other characters affects events, rewards, and enhances combat.
The world of Bionis is huge, with seamless combat and actions executed in real time based on positioning and mingled with quick-time events. With a world so large, the ability to warp to any major location and set the clock on the fly during the 24-hour cycle is a major time saver.
Xenoblade Chronicles has some of the best mechanics and gameplay that have ever been attempted in an RPG, with a beautiful soundtrack, intriguing story, and amazing lush world (even on the Wii), don't miss out on this title.
Hint: Equip your tank with the best defensive gear and HP bonuses and combat will be a breeze. Don't forget to watch your aggro bar!

A parathyroidectomy is a surgery to remove abnormal parathyroid glands. There are four parathyroid glands located in the neck. The glands make parathyroid hormone, which is used to control calcium levels in the blood.
Reasons for Procedure
The surgery is done to remove one or more abnormal parathyroid glands. The glands can be abnormal due to cancer or for other reasons.
Possible Complications
Complications are rare, but no procedure is completely free of risk. If you are planning to have a parathyroidectomy, your doctor will review a list of possible complications, which may include:
- Bleeding
- Hoarseness
- Low calcium levels in the blood
- Wound infection
- Reaction to the anesthesia
- Skin tethering—tissues and skin may become attached to the voice box or windpipe
- Scarring
- Blocked airway
- Damage to nerves (which can cause problems like paralyzed vocal cords)
Factors that may increase the risk of complications include:
- Smoking
- Heart and lung problems
Talk to your doctor about these risks before the surgery.
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
Your doctor will:
- Do a physical exam and ask you about your medical history
- Order imaging scans (eg, ultrasound)
- Have blood tests done
You should:
- Arrange to have someone drive you home from the hospital after surgery.
- Avoid eating or drinking 6-8 hours before surgery.
Talk to your doctor about your medicines, herbs, and dietary supplements. You may be asked to stop taking some medicines up to one week before the procedure, like:
- Aspirin and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (eg, ibuprofen , naproxen )
- Blood-thinning drugs, such as warfarin (Coumadin)
- Anti-platelet drugs, such as clopidogrel (Plavix)
General anesthesia will be used. It will block any pain. You will stay asleep through the surgery. In some cases, local anesthesia may also be used.
Description of the Procedure
The surgeon will make a 2 to 2-½ inch (5-6 centimeter) cut in the neck. He will need to move away neck muscles and the thyroid to locate all the glands. Once the abnormal gland is located, he will cut it out and remove it. A drain may then be placed in the area where the surgery was done. The cut will be closed with stitches.
How Long Will It Take?
20 minutes to several hours (depending on how many glands need to be removed)
How Much Will It Hurt?
Anesthesia prevents pain during surgery. After the surgery, you may feel like you have a cold or sore throat . Your doctor will give you pain medicine.
Average Hospital Stay
This procedure is done in a hospital setting. The usual length of stay is 1-2 days. Your doctor may choose to keep you longer if you have any problems.
Post-procedure Care
The hospital staff will:
- Observe you in the recovery room
- Check on your ability to swallow and speak
- Show you how to change your dressings and care for your wound
- Remove the drain if one was placed during surgery
When you return home, do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery:
- You may be given calcium supplements.
- Check your wound daily for signs of infection.
- You may want to eat semi-solid foods, like ice cream or oatmeal, for the first few days. These types of foods will be easier to swallow.
- Be sure to follow your doctor's instructions.
Call Your Doctor
After you leave the hospital, contact your doctor if any of the following occurs:
- Tingling or numbness in the fingertips, toes, hands, or around the mouth
- Twitching or cramping of muscles
- Redness, warmth, drainage, or swelling around the area where surgery was done
- Difficulty swallowing, talking, or breathing
- Signs of infection, including fever and chills
In case of an emergency, call for medical help right away.

that things is tough lookin, like it might steal lunch money from lil 20 inch bikes!
fast eddie outty
1940? schwinn ratty truck kustom ALL DONE PICS ARE UP!that things is tough lookin, like it might steal lunch money from lil 20 inch bikes!
fast eddie outty Fast Eddie,
The clip ons look great, especially the way they turn down. Are you gonna drop that seat? Oh, and good decision on the tire swap.
thanks guys yes the seat has already been slamed that was so i could hang it in the bike stand. actually the ridding position is not nearly as dangerous as it seems and if i want to sit up more when cruising i just rest both hands on the top crown and sit up. it is funny you mention the tire clearance it is very tight. see when i first set it up i did so for the smaller diameter red tire which was 20 x 2.125. the new one is 20 x 3 and is taller. i actually had to cut a small relief in the lower front part of the crown to make it fit. the flip side is now the crown actually curls around the tire. the other night i took it out for a shake down slash beer hop ride with a fellow hooligan of mine and at one point the front tire picked up a rock. when it got caught between the tire and the crown i saw it go shooting out in front of the bike (think baseball practice machine).
there is much to be done and more pics to come next will be the rear wheel which is going to be redone with a very special and rare bendex 2 spd hub. a friend gave me a really cool kickstand for it off his prewar rollfast cruiser so i have to make a mount for that. stay tuned and thanks for the comments. as many of you know i was not able to finish the last build off bike so for me this is redemption. PRESIDENT of The Hooligans B.C. c.c OF SACRAMENTO
Karfer thats looks awesome but I have to admit I am cringing ...not that I haven't cut up a Schwinn or two in my day somehow I just can't anymore
well 'cept for a bent girly frame
well to make you feel better i did it that way so if in future i wanted to make it stock i could weld the brackets back on. the nubs were saved and are hanging on my bench sort of a reminder of the carnage. new pics uploading as we speak.
PRESIDENT of The Hooligans B.C. c.c OF SACRAMENTO
new pics. first off that rare bendex green band 2 speed. as the story goes these were a short run of hubs that were intended for the stingray and have heavy duty springs and close ratios but the cost of building such a hub out weighed the gain so they went with the 5 speed derail setup we all know. i got this hub from a long time schwinn collector so here it goes.
second photo shows the cool top caps my buddy helped me make for the fork. he had a lathe and saw the ugly caps that i had in there before. we stuck in a chunk of aluminum and this is what we came up with third photo shows her as she sits now. the chain guard is on and you can see the new and final sprocket i came up with. it is of unknown orgin but it is 52 teeth and is made out of aluminum. you can also see the first brass clamp that i made for the tank plate. PRESIDENT of The Hooligans B.C. c.c OF SACRAMENTO
man that thing looks tough!
I will now be looking for one of theses! gives me some ideas...i think i saw one brokenn in front of depaneur near by! if you can, post pics of you riding it!! how does she ride? i
i'm a craigslist addict[. garage sales, free stuff, bike ads, i have no shame.... nugenhipsta october 2007
I guess I will keep an eye out for something like that as well. Tartosuc, where is that depanneur???;)
"Every day is a build off"-Not Hugo http://www.howtofixbikes.ca http://takingpictures101.blogspot.com http://freebikebook.blogspot.com
on the shake down run we rode a bit over 10 miles and all is good. it will be better with the two speed once the drive train is all taken care of i can concentrate on a few other things i have planned. everyone who looks at it wonders how it rides so i tell them to just try it and they are very supprised. cycle trucks are rather short so you are not as bent over as you would think. now if i had done this to a normal cruiser i would recommend keeping your head up at all times when ridding.

My false alarm the other day and subsequent trip to the maternity ward made me think I should really get all my ducks in a row for this baby. Though my c-section is scheduled for the 16th, I'm already having tons of contractions, so I'd bet this little turkey is going to be fully cooked sooner than later. Consequently, it's probably a good idea to get everything set so it's not total chaos like the other morning when I just threw a bunch of crap into a bag and headed to the hospital in a hurry.
In addition to putting together the crib, washing all the gender neutral baby clothes, and gathering my enormous nursing bras, I figured it'd be a good idea to get everything ready for my hospital stay. So I packed up my bag full of essentials like waterproof eyeliner, US Magazines, self tanner, my camera, and a bottle of champagne but I also decided I should probably throw in my iPod for the big day.
While I want to be fully aware and not listening music at the moment my new baby is pulled out of my belly, I was thinking maybe I should make a delivery playlist for after Grey and the baby exit the c-section room for the baby bath station and I'm left to have my guts sewn back together all by my lonesome.
The last time around, I was chatting away with my doctor and nurses about celebrity c-sections and tummy tucks, so the sewing up part of my section wasn't bad. This time though, I have no idea if the medical team will be as gregarious, so I was thinking it may be a good idea to set up a mix on my iPod so I don't have to listen to the smack of my placenta being chucked into a bio-hazard bag or the sloshing of my uterus as they pop it back into place. Not like I heard this before — but I'm thinking worst case scenario here, folks.
Initially, I thought about making a relaxing playlist of Enya and Andrea Bocelli for my c-section, but now I'm thinking more along the lines of the Rocky soundtrack or old school rap. I'm sure my adrenaline will be pumping so "Eye of the Tiger" may be better suited to my mood than "Peruvian Woodwind Classics."
So far, my list includes:
Don't Stop Believin' by Journey (quite possibly the best end-of-wedding song ever…I'm hoping it will remind me that having a cocktail or two is in my very near future)
All I Want for Christmas is You by Mariah Carey (I know it'll be a little early, but this Christmas carol may be the best song of all time. It immediately brings a smile to my face — no matter what the season)
Sex Bomb by Tom Jones (Again, another classic ditty that makes me so very happy)
Biggie Smalls (This dead rapper gets me pumped to go jogging, so I'm hoping he helps me get on my breast-feeding game face)
That's about as far as I got…any suggestions?

Goals: Scientists used a fortunate encounter with 2685 Masursky to investigate the asteroid's size and dimensions, and albedo of an object too small to accurately measure from Earth. It also provided a chance to test the spacecraft's object-targeting capabilities.
Accomplishments: Cassini flew within 1.5 million km of 2685 Masursky in Janurary 2000. Scientists made more detailed size estimates of Masursky -- about 15-20 km in diameter -- and found evidence it may have unexpected properties.

2. | blue balls | ||
when polly wont finish off your cracker
3. | blue balls | ||
A painful condition when a man has been profoundly sexually stimulated but not allowed to ejaculate, leaving his balls feeling heavy and sore. It is my mission to relieve this unpleasant phenomenon. His girlfriend had left him with blue balls, so I took pity on him and sucked him off until he came in my mouth. We both felt better after that.
4. | blue balls | ||
arousal of the penis without ejaculation, causing discomfort in the lower abdomen. Similar sensation to being kicked or hit in the tescticles. She left me with a throbbing boner, man do I hate having blue balls.
5. | blue balls | ||
Blue balls happens when your with someone, kissing or something, and you are aroused for a long period of time, but you never ejaculate. Your balls may get bigger, or even shrink a little, and there is a slight bluish greyish color sometimes.
The pain is pretty bad. If you walk around, your balls and stomach hurts, but for a long time. It feels like you were kicked in the nuts, like when you get that stomach hurting feeling after being kicked there. To cure: Have your partner finish you, or (God forbid), you gotta jack off. Without cumming, your balls can hurt for awhile. You gotta be careful not to go to fast because it hurts. IMPORTANT: This is kinda funny, but when you jack off after having blue balls, you will cum SO MUCH!! When I dont got blue balls, I cum like one solid piece, but with bllue balls I shot out like (No kidding), 5 good, solid shots. Be ready. Kinda like a cheap porno.

23 September – 7 October 2010: RCA at the London Design Festival 2010
The Royal College of Art presents its biggest programme of exhibitions to date as part of this year's London Design Festival, bringing together seven exhibitions that reflect the incredible diversity and depth of innovative design thinking from the world's most renowned postgraduate art and design university.
Open 10am–5.30pm daily.
The Design Products Collection – Entrance Gallery This exhibition launches The Design Products Collection, exclusively created by graduates and staff associated with the RCA Design Products Department and made available commercially for the very first time. The intention of the Collection is to present more widely the wealth of creative ideas within the Department.
Sustain – Upper Gulbenkian Gallery Sustain brings together sustainable practice from across the art and design disciplines of the RCA, in a unique exhibition that showcases objects, thinking and solutions to issues and arguments in the ever-more-complex arena of sustainability. From nutshell jewellery to designing out packaging waste, from a livelihood-creating mobile chai trolley to re-using textile waste to reduce landfill, RCA graduates demonstrate the 'systems'-thinking creativity of cross-disciplinary practice that is unique to the world's most influential postgraduate art and design school.
IDE with iGuzzini & Fratelli Guzzini – Upper Gulbenkian Gallery The collaboration of Innovation Design Engineering with Italian design company iGuzzini and Fratelli Guzzini resulted in two unique projects. Bin 2 Bin explores integrating cyclical sustainable materials for use in domestic consumer products.

MoneyMix Contributor
It was a cold December in Minnesota, a few days before the holidays. I was watching the 10 p.m. news from the comfort of my living room. The lead story was about a huge fire that destroyed an apartment complex in a Minneapolis suburb, leaving many people homeless right before the holidays. I saw the panic and devastation of several tenants interviewed. They had lost everything—all their possessions and holiday gifts. Many victims didn't have renters insurance; they were personally responsible for finding and paying for a place to stay and coming up with the finances to rebuild their lives.
If you don't have renters insurance and don't want to end up like the people I saw, let this article be your wake-up call.
renters insurance basics
Renters insurance can protect you against financial losses from damage caused by fire, pipe/water leak damage, and explosions. It also can protect against theft, vandalism, or injury to others that occurs in your unit. Note that floods, earthquakes, tornados, and hurricanes aren't always covered. If you live in an area where these natural disasters are common, you may have to buy an additional policy.
According to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, Washington D.C., the average cost of renters insurance is $15 to $30 a month. The odds are slim of ever having to use renters insurance, but the risk is huge if something happens and you don't have coverage. Bottom line? It's worth it no matter who you are or how tight your finances are.
The average cost of rental insurance is $15 to $30 a month. Here are some common excuses for not having renters insurance:
- "My landlord already has coverage, so I don't need it." Wrong. Your landlord's insurance policy will cover structural damage to the building, but does nothing for your personal property.
- "I'm just starting out in the world—I don't have anything valuable anyway." Wrong again. Do you have a TV? An iPod? Jewelry? Clothing and shoes? A bike? Computer? Even if your individual items aren't worth that much, it would cost a lot of money to replace everything at once.
getting renters insurance
Follow these steps to get the right coverage:
- Inventory your possessions. Make a list of the item descriptions and values (and keep updating as you buy new things). Keep an electronic copy that's accessible from multiple locations, such as an e-mail account, so you can access it anywhere in case your computer is misplaced or damaged.
If you're just starting out, you'll probably be OK with a basic policy covering up to $10,000. If you have a high-value item, such as a family heirloom or a wedding ring, you might want to take out a rider—additional coverage not offered under the main policy—for that item.
As with any insurance policy, compare rates among companies. Bundling insurance policies also can save money. If you have car insurance, start with the company you have insurance through and see if it offers discounts for customers who purchase multiple policies through the company. After you get that rate, do an Internet search or call directly to compare rates from several companies.
A policy with a higher deductible—the amount you pay before coverage kicks in—will have lower premiums. If you can afford to take the risk of a higher deductible, consider that option and save to cover the deductible in your credit union savings account. Just make sure you're realistic. Are you really going to be able to absorb $2,000 in unplanned expenses when disaster strikes? If not, opt for a lower deductible and higher premiums.
Learn more about renters insurance.
Get renters insurance quotes.
Take inventory of your possessions.
- Check for other discounts. Sometimes companies offer discounts for buildings that have protections like deadbolt locks, fire extinguishers, and burglar alarms. Provide this detail to your insurance agent before receiving a final quote. Also, ask about a lump-sum discount—if you pay for a full year in advance, the overall cost of the policy might be reduced.
Ask for details about what is not covered. The cheapest policy might not be the best. Are there pet restrictions? What type of personal liability incidents does your policy cover? And what doesn't it cover?
Be completely honest; if you qualify for a policy based on deceit you are engaging in insurance fraud, and that will void any coverage you might otherwise be eligible for.
Decide if you want a policy that will cover the cost to replace your items, or the value items were worth at the time they were damaged or stolen. For example—if you buy a flat-screen TV today for $750 and it's stolen two years from now, the value of a two-year-old TV will be much less than $750, while the cost to buy a comparable new TV could be more than $750.
If you have roommates, you'll want to discuss renters insurance with them. It's much less complicated if everyone purchases renters insurance, but if you have stubborn roommates who won't budge, you'll need to make a very detailed list of your possessions.
