I did buy this set for a three-year-old, but both of us use the crayons. The color can be spread smoothly even on cheap paper, with fewer unexpected bumps and clots than Crayola wax crayons may have. The range of colors is great for a small set, and stray marks do come off well with a bit of water. (So far: painted wall, painted wood chair, veneer window blinds.) My child "likes" the thickness of the individual crayons: they haven't broken yet despite some intense use.

This bag is awesome, with secure stitching and well-designed pockets. I take it to work, sometimes with my 13" Thinkpad laptop wedged in, and then I pick up my child from daycare: Wise-Walker on back, toddler in an Ergo carrier on front. Thus the Wise-Walker serves as purse, diaper bag, and general carrier of small work items. It's slightly too narrow to zip around a letter-sized manila folder, but if the weather is good one can leave the zipper partly open. I love the size, regardless: it holds what I need, keeps my hands free, and discourages me from packing unnecessary things. The thoughtful little pocket for a transit card is exactly right.

I really like the semi-opaque white body. It has a slightly softer feel than the original Petit1, which was a hard plastic all over; this one is a bit friendlier to the touch. I ordered one without any ink cartridges, in hopes that my old Petit1 cartridges would work with it, and they do!
The Coleto body and the..., March 3, 2008
The Coleto body and the ten-color refill set are the only cost-effective way to use the excellent Hi-Tec-C ink and pen-tip. I love them. If only the refills came in some of the rarer colors (they're available only as standalone pens, but it's a waste of plastic...).

The ink is a pretty color, a pleasant mid-green. I confess I've no idea what "takoizu" denotes, though....

Well, for me this pen is definitely *not* better than the Hi-Tec-C. The ink seems a bit watery somehow, or perhaps I'm influenced by the unexpected color. For "emerald" I thought it'd be a bit darker.... It writes fairly smoothly, but I actually prefer the Hi-Tec-C's grip and nib.
It took me a moment to..., November 25, 2006
It took me a moment to realize how to load this pen. Once I found the little flip-top cap and opened it, everything went smoothly. I like having two colors (and two different nib sizes!) available in the same barrel, and it's great to have a blue-black refill, which JetPens doesn't seem to carry for the regular Hi-Tec-C.
The ink is a pretty color,..., November 25, 2006

Oct 18 (First Post) — As art lovers gather in London for annual Frieze Art lovers this week, here's a list of the world's wealthiest artists.
Emerging at the top of the list is internationally renowned British artist Damien Hirst, whose net worth is estimated at $350 million, according to data from Wealth-X, a global ultra high net worth (UHNW) intelligence provider.
Hirst – who is famous for his provocative artworks featuring dead animals preserved in formaldehyde – made history by becoming the first living artist to sell a complete show at a Sotheby's auction, rather than through individual galleries.

Plasmids for Life
Stuck in traffic? Not for long. With Devil's Shortcut you could open a portal to anywhere. Have an overnight guest wanting to cuddle in the morning? Nope. Have a neighbor threatening to call the cops about your overnight guests disappearing? Not anymore. "Accidentally" send that same neighbor through a portal into the sun? Now you're getting it.
And it doesn't have to stop there; Mother's Mute would silence all children within 500 feet, Changing Viewpoint would let you walk a mile in someone else's shoes, literally, and Plan B would…uh, never mind.
And of course, to be responsible, each plasmid would feature the standard warning label: side effects include dementia, fits of rage, inexplicable admiration for the works of Charlaine Harris, madness, delusions, chemical dependency, and anal leakage.

Assembling a Trailer Kit
Harbor Freight sells a 4ft by 8ft folding utility trailer kit, and this is my story of the assembly process.
You can see the kit in its native retail environment here: http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/Displayitem.taf?itemnumber=90154
As you probably know, Harbor Freight tends to run periodic specials that rotate through their product line. They sell several similar utility trailers, but the one I have is the 90154, which is 4 x 8 and has 12" tires. The regular price is $299, but in the month I got mine it was $229 online and $239 in the store. It turns out that the shipping would have been $60 online, so unless you live more than $50 away from a store, it is probably better to pick it up. Keep in mind too that they don't charge sales tax, since the state DMV gets plenty of taxes instead.
I decided to get a small trailer so that I could have the transportation convenience of my small truck without having the small truck. In particular, I wanted to transport a motorcycle from central Florida, which makes for about 12 hours on the road. The small truck that I have is probably not up for that kind of trip. I also wanted to be able to make runs to Lowes when the truck was out of town. The HF 90154 fits the bill for me mostly because of the size and cost. The folding feature is a handy bonus, since I can get it into some semi-indoor storage and increase its longevity indefinitely. The weight rating according to the instructions is 1450 pounds, which is more than my VW Jetta can comfortably tow from what I hear.
My first step before purchase was to make a few phone calls. First I called the DMV to figure out how much it would cost to get a plate and keep it renewed, along with exactly what kind of documentation I would need to bring to get a title. In North Carolina, it was $19 per year plus the county's personal property tax, and they have a $40 fee for getting the title. In the end it was $72.50 including the notary fee. The only documentation that they wanted was a Certificate of Origin and bill of sale, and of course a photo ID.
My second call was to the insurance company to figure out how that would all work. It turns out that in my particular policy the liability of the trailer is included with the tow vehicle. While there is not any coverage for damage to the trailer, who cares? Its not like it would cost more than $299 in parts to fix, right?
My final step was to work on the logistics of getting the kit. Since I was expecting boxes that were too big to transport in the car, I had to pick them up with the truck, and since the HF stores are somewhat sparse where I am, it took some planning. I also called the store to make sure that they had a kit in stock for that price, and they offered to hold one if necessary. I would suggest that you do the same, unless you can be happy with going to the store to find out that they don't have any. It turns out that the kit might have fit in the car, but not very well. Count on two people to handle the largest box.
I did encounter a bit of a surprise at the store. My plan was to pick up the kit late on Monday, then leave town on Tuesday morning to take it to the assembly site. It turns out that someone from HF must notarize the certificate of origin, and their notary was out for the day. One of the store employees went out of his way to get it notarized and send it to me in the mail. It turned out to be OK, but when it did arrive it was all that I was waiting for. Be sure to ask about this if it will be a problem.
Before the purchase I also spent some time researching online to see exactly how crappy this very inexpensive trailer would be. There seemed to be a consensus among other web pages that though the trailer was indeed inexpensive, it was still a fairly useful product for the price. As for assembly time and complexity, most people said to expect quite a bit of head scratching and at least two days of work. Since I couldn't find any specific construction logs, I decided to make one with a list of tools and an actual timeline of how long each step took for me to do. Be sure to click on the small picture if you want to see more detail.
I decided to play it safe and buy a spare tire from HF, even though it wasn't on special this month. Just imagine the "I told you so" implications of having a flat on the side of I-95 at 11:00 at night. I tossed the whole box in the trunk and head off to Florida, only to find once I got there that the box also included a special lug nut U-bolt to attach the spare to the trailer with. This was really exciting, since I didn't have to buy the $10.00 spare tire mount, and now I can tell you so neither do you!

The total time to get the trailer ready for the plywood deck: 5:02
I spent an additional 1:28 to get the plywood on, for a grand total of 6:30.
As for money, the kit was $240, the wood and hardware were $32, the spare was $45, and the tag was $72. The total before the tag is $317 and the ready-to-use total of $389.
In summary, I think the trailer was just right for what I needed. It isn't going to last forever, but then again it was pretty inexpensive for what it is. In the end, I spent 6.5 hours and under $400. If you think this is what you are looking for, I'd say you should give it a try.
8-2007 Trailer Update:
I've made a few trips with the trailer now, and I have a few updates. I've driven a total of about 2000 miles and have only had a few minor problems.
The first problem is that the original casters failed, as I had expected. They were not really strong enough to support the weight. I got 4 replacements at my local hardware store for around $4 each.
I also replaced two of the carriage bolts with eye bolts. This allowed me to carry two motorcycles on the trailer instead of one.
I have also had some shorts develop in the wiring, which has blown a few fuses on the tow vehicle. The trouble is with wire insulation breaks that allow the conductors to short to the frame. I'm starting to think that some better grade wire or perhaps some protective conduit could help.


text: A great farm with established food plots and a renovated house/cabin. The entrance to the farm is off a black top road down through your gated easement to your gated entrance. Once you drive through the entrance you overlook the property. The house/cabin is located down the drive a few yards. The cabin has been renovated recently and has 2 bedrooms that will sleep 8 comfortably. Lots of deck space which is great for outdoor activity. Along with the cabin, there are 4 older buildings and a 20 x 50 foundation ready for a good sized pole barn. Your farm has 4 established food plots with 30 acres of open land and the rest in timber. Throughout the timber you have 2 miles of trails for easy access. Along with established trails, you have ¾ mile of Rogers Creek along with a spring fed .75 acre lake and 3 smaller ponds throughout property. On top of all this, the hunting is a great plus with great deer and turkey population. Great potential with this farm.

Where inflation sticks it to consumers
Inflation overall has been mild, but it may not feel that way, because prices for basics like rent, hospital bills, even a simple apple have been rising fast. Here's where consumers are hit the hardest.
Last week, I talked about all the reasons why inflation -- which has been relatively tame since 2011 -- is poised for a painful comeback. Part of is related to a strengthening global economy. But part of it is related to all the monetary voodoo coming out of the Federal Reserve and the other central banks around the world.
In some ways, that's good news for middle class families that could finally see a better job market and, yes, the potential for some wage gains. But the good will be offset by a higher cost of living.
Still, a lot of you probably question whether inflation has actually been all that tame. That's because in some critical areas for working families, prices for basics necessities have been rising faster (sometimes much faster) than inflation overall.
So before we hit the next wave of inflation, click ahead for a look at some areas where higher prices are already sticking it to consumers -- and a few related investment plays.
Hey Zappy Zen
And YOU should at LEAST read a book about economics and stop relying on what you're TOLD by government shills. LOOK at what's happening to people around you for Christ's sake. And you should read an economic history of the USA in the 19th century. Prices were only 8% higher in 1913 than they were in 1790. In other words, what cost $1,000 in 1790 cost $1,080 in 1913. What cost $1,000 in 1914 NOW costs $23,700. THAT'S what the fed has done to the dollar. And YOU think that's OK?
One article says get ready for deflation and another guy in different article says get ready for inflation
I'm so confused. I know the price of tooth picks and plastic forks made in china haven't gone up.
But when I go to the gas station and supermarket they pick my pockets clean.
Uncle ben says there is no inflation so it must be true. His helicopter must get better mileage
then my car.
Zappy Zen
NOT a Tea partier. Just have eyes to see what's going on, and NOT ONE economist has the FAINTEST CLUE of what is happening to MOST people in this country. All they're doing is shilling for wall street and the government. The stock market IS NOT based on REALITY, and hasn't been since helicopter benny began his policy of F*CKING the average person. God forbid that the millionaires suffer for the consequences of THEIR actions. Their answer? "Why have the TAXPAYER bail us out of course."
Unfortunately, the so called job creators have paid for their unfair advantage and used their wealth to take an unfair share from the rest of through making their mass theft legal.
Okay guys this is how this works.
As wages are reduced, you do realize there are millions of illegals already working here for less than minimum wage, folks go into survival mode and buy less and less and then this snowballs to where less is sold so less is produced and/or imported. This puts pressure on costs because fewer are able to buy to where prices need to deflate to match up with reduced incomes. People are the consumers and as they make less they spend less. This is the result mainly of two factors, Free Trade and the allowing of 15 million illegal workers working for less and less just to survive, as they push down wages and push regular Americans out of jobs until they agree to work for less. You will never see a move to raise wages or curb illegal workers being hired. We are being busted by this corrupt political process and nobody seems to give a rats A$$. If folks do wake up they will be unable to organize as all communications are now monitored and the UN will send troops in to quell any social unrest at the behest of D.C. Most people educated in these Public Schools are so ill informed they deserve to starve. Voting in the same old same old corrupt representatives. Inflation will turn to deflation in the very near future. PERFECT!

Workers' Compensation and Moral Hazard
AbstractTwo types of moral hazard have been determined. The first type is related to self-prevention activities affecting probabilities of accidents. The second type relates to the agent's activities whenever the accident occurs. The authors' objective consists of presenting an empirical measure of the significance of this second type of moral hazard in the workers' compensation market. The main challenge in isolating moral hazard consists of dividing into two parts the total variation in recovery time with respect to changes in insurance coverage: (1) the variation of consumption corresponding to a given level of information; and (2) the variation of consumption due to greater asymmetrical information. The methodology used in this study separates these two variations. Copyright 1991 by MIT Press.

Yesterday I threw together this peanut noodle salad in a mad rush while preparing a couple of other dishes for a big pot luck dinner we were hosting last night. It often happens that when I'm cooking during the day, preparing for a dinner party, the last thing I think about is what to have for lunch. My big pot of vegetarian chili was simmering, the chocolate tart was cooling (as much as it could do in my sweltering hot kitchen), and I quickly decided on this cold noodle salad for lunch.
The last few days have been beautiful here in Auckland, and yesterday was no exception so we ate this peanut noodle salad outside on the balcony. It was the first time I can remember eating outside in forever. A perfectly timed slice of blue sky combined harmoniously with the warm breeze and the pale blossoms in our front yard to lure us outside and spend a brief moment celebrating that the most hideous winter is finally, finally over.
I've come to really appreciate cold soba noodles lately. In fact, I would say I think I prefer them cold. I sometimes find when I try to serve them hot they can disintegrate and break apart quite easily. But served cold, they tend to hold their form and retain a little firmness. The key is to run them under cold water immediately after draining to stop them cooking any further. Then add a small glug of oil and stir through with a fork to stop them sticking.
Peanut Noodle Salad Recipe
I used baby mung bean sprouts in this salad. They are actually the same as regular "bean sprouts" often used in Asian cooking but they haven't been left to sprout so long. Thus they still retain the form of the bean, lending a lovely sweetness and crunchy texture. Regular bean sprouts would work fine as well.
9oz / 270g soba noodles
1 bunch asparagus spears, trimmed, cut into 1- to 1½-inch (2-3cm) pieces
3-4 large eggs
½ cup smooth / creamy peanut butter
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes, crushed
3 tablespoons brown rice vinegar
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
2 medium cloves garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons cilantro / coriander, finely chopped
¼ cup – ½ cup hot water
juice of half a lime
sea salt to taste
½ cup roasted peanuts
½ cup baby mung bean sprouts
2 spring onions / scallions, finely sliced
Place the eggs in a large saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil then turn off the heat and leave to cook for 7 minutes. Quickly drain the water and place eggs in a bowl of iced water. This will stop the area between the yolk and the white from going grey.
Add a couple of big pinches of salt to a large saucepan of boiling water. cook the asparagus for 30 seconds, quickly remove and run under cold water to stop them cooking further. You want the asparagus nice and crunchy. If possible, reserve the water for cooking the noodles.
Cook the soba noodles in a large saucepan of salted water according to packet instructions. Be careful not to overcook – you want them to have a little bite to them. Run them under cold water immediately after draining to stop them cooking any further. Then add a small glug of oil and stir through with a fork to stop them sticking.
To make the dressing, mix the peanut butter, brown rice vinegar, toasted sesame oil, red pepper flakes, garlic, lime juice, and cilantro / coriander. Stir in the hot water a few tablespoons at a time, until you are happy with the consistency. I like mine to be a little on the thin side. Taste and adjust flavours until you are happy – maybe a little salt or more lime juice. My peanut butter was unsalted so I added a few pinches of salt here.
Stir half the sauce into the noodles along with two thirds of the asparagus, mung bean sprouts, peanuts and spring onions. Serve and top with chopped egg and the remaining asparagus, mung bean sprouts, peanuts and spring onions. Add more sauce until you are happy with the taste.
Serves 4.

Russians Set Ball Rolling
Published January 03, 2011 12:00
AUCKLAND, New Zealand - The presence of a trio of Russian stars has certainly had an impact on ticket sales at this week's ASB Classic - the day sessions have already sold out - and fans weren't disappointed on Monday when Maria Sharapova and Svetlana Kuznetsova delivered the goods, even if it meant one of their own fell by the wayside.
Kuznetsova, the third seed but coming of her first non-Top 10 season in seven years, opened main draw proceedings on center court against Kiwi wildcard Sacha Jones. While 20-year-old Jones held her own against the two-time Grand Slam winner in the first set, Kuznetsova's experience told, 64 62.
"The circumstances were very hard for me, I hadn't played a match for three months then I met a player who was motivated and had nothing to lose," said Kuznetsova after what was just her second match win since last year's US Open. "She had the home crowd, I had never played her before and had no idea what to expect.
"For almost the whole first set I had to watch and adjust to how she was playing," the current world No.27 added. "She was playing good and aggressive... but in the second set I was able to put more pressure on her."
Top seed Sharapova was also tested at times by Italian lucky loser Alberta Brianti, who earlier in the day had been beaten by 18-year-old Brit Heather Watson in the final round of qualifying.
Brianti gained her spot in the draw after fifth-seeded Anastasija Sevastova withdrew with illness, which saw Sharapova's intended opponent, Carla Suárez Navarro, promoted to the No.9 seeding and moved in the draw.
Brianti saved match points to break Sharapova when the Russian served for the match at 5-1 in the second set, and more still on her own serve, before the former world No.1 advanced with a 62 63 scoreline.
Other first round winners included Peng Shuai, who eased past Sweden's Johanna Larsson to set up a meeting with Kuznetsova; Anne Keothavong, who stormed home to beat Edina Gallovits in three; and Renata Voracova, who also went the distance against Lourdes Domínguez Lino. But in the evening session No.6 seed Kimiko Date-Krumm was outplayed by wildcard Kateryna Bondarenko, 64 63.
Sabine Lisicki, Florencia Molinero and Noppawan Lertcheewakarn won their final qualifying matches to join Watson in the main draw.
Tuesday's schedule is headlined by a clash between former world No.1 Dinara Safina and defending champion Yanina Wickmayer, the No.2 seed.

DEVCHAT is dead, long live DEVCHAT!
A group of creatives came together as DEVCHAT for the "Ghost Wheel?" jam and had loads of fun, but we've decided that a public face was just not for us. The idea of our unique voices and perspectives being crammed under one moniker was the opposite of what we set out to achieve. We're just internet friends who hang out and make games and we want you to know that you can do it to.
Make your own DEVCHAT! Invite your friends over for pizza and a game jam or better yet, look for people outside your immediate social circle and get to know one another. Use the #indieteamup hashtag or the upcoming http://makegam.es or any number of the great social platforms out there. You don't need to call it DEVCHAT either. Hell, you don't even need a name!
We're not going to tell you how to run your group, but there's a few things we'd recommend for the benefit of all. Be as inclusive as you can. Keep the atmosphere friendly. Don't limit or derail discussion. Respect the wishes of others. Don't discriminate based on race, gender, sexual preference, age, background or skill level. Remember, creativity and passion is universal.

Last week, the minimum amount to open a MM account was $250. This week, it's $1,000. Even though I got the invitation when the minimum was $250, They still insisted that I put $1,000 in if I wanted to open an account.
You'd think a bank (even if they just opened) would get their story straight if they wanted to get more customers, or at least accommodate those who were told one thing one week, then were told a total different story the week following.
No worries, AbleBank, there are many other banks around who know what they're doing and would love to help me manage my measly $800.
This account was barely even 3 months and the bank had reduced the interest rates twice in that time which made it pointless to have even opened this account in the first place. Also it is the only online bank out of any I have used that restricts transfers out to 25K a day. But they have no problem with other online banks allowing you to transfer money in without restrictions. Then the do-gooder charity that gets pushed up the yin yang. Customers have savings accounts to earn interest, one already pays full state and federal taxes on the petty amount being earned. Essentially, by the rate reductions, it was like taking 500 dollars a year away from my account in interest while giving me back 50 dollars a year to donate to charity through the bank. Sure, sounds like a deal, not. Then they closed the account without notice, claiming I added a 2nd linked account and that I checked my bank account online too often. In inquiring about this, the security watch dog said that these actions raised red flags. I think the only thing questionable and suspect was that the bank took this action only after I was trying to transfer money out to one of the linked bank accounts. I should have known from the get go that a bank with such a stupid name would be a farce. However, on the positive side, the employees working the basic customer service line were very polite and nice. it was obvious the bank does not hire those with that hideous Boston speech impediment to staff the phones. The online web site was a disaster, it would trip up and log you off at the drop of a hat. I have used enough bank websites and this was by far the clumsiest one ever. Glad to be out of that dog and pony show for good.
This bank which pretends to be a community bank in Maine is run by a bunch of thieves based in Boston. Dont be fooled by their faux charitible story line

Showing posts tagged Boston Bruins
I panicked..almost exactly like this.
A rivalry that has stood for ages. We expected it to be a a good, hard fought series and oh boy was it ever. It lived up to all the expectations and more. The Rask vs. Price battle was almost as epic as Subban vs. Thornton's water bottle.
An amazing series comes to an end after a long fought 7 games. The Habs came out victorious and will advance to face the New York Rangers in the Eastern Conference finals.
This is how close it came to being 3-1. Because of this save by Desharnais it stays 3-0 Habs!
HUGE save by Rask on the line (literally) to keep it at 1-0
(After spraying PK Subban with water from the bench)
HA, got ya subban! .. oh… sup ref?
Hey Subban, do you even lift bro? - Lucic
Fraser wins it for the bruins!! They win in OT and tie it up 2-2! The series will have a game 6!
Bruins cut into the lead and make it 3-1 in the 2nd!
We're pretty sure that guy behind the glass pissed himself when Smith went to celebrate with him.
The one that started it all. We don't know what it is with Boston and comebacks but they sure are good at them. They come back from 3-1 and stun the Habs winning 5-3

There's only one NCAA Tournament team playing here at EnergySolutions Arena on Thursday that is facing the impossible.
That's a lie.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Only one team that is facing that which never has been done.
That's truer than true.
Never, as in not ever.
No team seeded 16th has taken out a No. 1. The top seeds are 112-0 against the 16s since the tournament initially was expanded to 64 teams in 1985. Games have been within shouting distance a mere four times: Princeton lost by a point to Georgetown in 1989. East Tennessee State lost to Oklahoma by a point that same year. In 1990, Murray State lost to Michigan State in overtime. Western Carolina lost to Purdue by two points in 1996.
Other than that, the hatch always was slammed shut early. And even in those rare close exceptions, dreams went ahead and ducked on down a back alley for the littlest guys.
At least from a symbolic standpoint, maybe the Southern University Jaguars are the perfect team to stare down that ridiculous challenge and haul the dreams back.
Despite the towering stack of evidence suggesting that they can't and won't beat the Gonzaga Bulldogs, that they, competitively speaking, have wasted their time by showing up, the Jags were having none of that negativity Wednesday. Believers often are fools. But these believers already had been fool enough to scale a sheer cliff in getting this far.
The fact that Southern won 23 games against nine losses this season is story enough. It played this season with just 11 scholarship players, after playing last season with only nine, all in the wake of an APR mess bigger than any heretofore.
Over a period spanning a fistful of years back, the Jaguars had been a burning building of a program, with players in a rush coming and going. Many of them viewed going to class as more of a guideline than a rule. Graduation was a myth. It got to the point where Southern was banned from postseason play.
Then a couple of things happened. The school hired coach Roman Banks two years ago. Banks had deep ties to the program, his father having played there. The first thing he and his new staff did upon arrival was beyond basic: escort their players to their classrooms.
"I think when I walked on campus during summer school, we had one eligible player," Banks said. "So the assistant coaches came in, worked and did a great job of walking kids to class and trying to make sure that we can get out of this dire strait that we are in academically.
"What happened is that the guys that we kept ... made a commitment. It wasn't about the talent, it was about working hard. It's a testament to a group of guys that came together and believed in something and trying to achieve a goal."
Not only had academics on the team bottomed out, but also success on the court.
"This team started last year winning 17 games," Banks said. "Wasn't able to go to any postseason play. Remarkable from where the program came from. They had won more games in that year than they had in the last three years."
According to Chris Jones, an assistant athletic director at the school, Banks lifted spirits and expectations and discipline among his players — with a tough-and-tender touch. He insisted on them getting three things straight: studying, playing defense, winning.
"He's interested in making them men," Jones said.
Turns out, Banks rather quickly is making them men and ballers.Next Page >

Very useful, great flash, but i have a problem...
this was a really useful and clear guide as i have no idea how to make games but have some experience with actionscript. I have followed you instructions exactly (obviously i can't have) but ive ended up with a stickman that moves but not how i scripted it. The legs dont move at all the whole body justy glides across the level. Also the duck dosnt work. Sorry to sound like a noob but please can you help?
Brilliant flash though btw!
sure ill help! the thing is sometimes when you want to convert something to a symbol you sometimes make it a graphic or a button instead, because flash always leaves the last selection there for you, so go around and check through to see that all of the things are movie-clips and have got the right instace names, ill send you an e-mail with a better game engine that you can edit, ok? thanks for the review

Need help finishing backsplash
February 18, 2013 in Design Dilemma
My tile guy put up the mosaic tile backsplash today in my bathroom. I didn't realize that it would look this unfinished. Do you have ideas on how it can look finished?
stainless steel edge trim might help, but it should have been put in when the tiles were installed.
You might be able to trim the edging and slip it in behind.
good luck

Can you place a large mirror on the wall? A plain rectangular mirror could sit right down on the back splash or one with a lovely frame would distract the eye.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I already have the mirrors purchased. There will be at least a two inch space between where tile ends and the mirror. Also I have two separate mirrors, one over each sink. My contractor suggested just painting the grout at the edge the same color as the wall. Will this look ok?

Maybe a stained piece of wood trim to match your cabinet color would fill up the space between the tile and the mirrors. Quick and easy. Polyurethane a few coats so it is sealed.
I would choose a color from the tile, not the grout for the wall.

Flat Roof Now a Deck
Duradek ended up being the perfect solution for our large flat roof that kept pooling water. Mike was knowledgeable and helpful. He worked with us and answered all of our questions to come up with the perfect solution to make our flat roof into a beautiful deck. His crew of guys came and worked non-stop for two 11 hour days! They were professional and answered all of our questions (even our kids questions!). We had an issue with our new gate and the two guys Mike sent to fix it (Peter and Mke) went above and beyond to make sure we were 100% satisfied. We would highly recommend HTR Duradek and Mike and his team!

I have horrible deep circles under my eyes. I'll try anything. I like creamy textures and this is nice to apply. Alas, it slides off me within minutes. No point.
I absolutely love this concealer for my dry skin. It doesn't initially provide too much coverage but its completely buildable. Medium 1 is perfect for nc40
I like this concealer for undereye areas! I have tried just about everything on the market for undereye circles (hereditary, had them since childhood) and this is one good alternative. First, I like the very creamy, moist texture--unusual for a crayon or stick. The coverage is sheer but natural (I do apply over eye cream) and blends well into skin even when I don't use a foundation. I like the fact that the pencil is eco-friendly packaging, and is convenient for purse or travel.
This crayon sets in a few minutes after application, to a nice finish, neither too dry nor too glow-y. It will fade over time, but doesn't seem to set into lines (at least not into the undereye lines.) But I'd rather have a product slowly disappear with no trace-- better than settling into lines or getting crepey. The pencil application makes it quick to do a touch-up (but I always apply a bit of eye cream as a base first).
If you have undereye circles there is NO HOLY GRAIL product that will make them disappear completely and look natural. Sorry-- if you cover them completely, makeup WILL be visible. And if it is visible, you have just called attention to your circles. So my philosophy (drawn from various makeup artists) is minimize as far as you can naturally, but don't expect 100% coverage.
If you are getting ready for a photo session, perhaps you will want to find a more opaque product...but for looking natural in full sunlight, I'd choose the sheer Josie Maran crayon every time.

More reviews by itzmarylicious
I bought this concealer crayon a few months ago. I purchased this mostly to cover some redness around my nose and some darkness under my eyes. I dont wear foundation, I usually just conceal those 2 areas and put a light powder over my entire face. After a few uses, I realized that the coverage is very light on this. It barely covered up any redness around my nose, dont even mention the under eyes. It will look ok for maybe 2 or 3 hours but you definitely need to touch up after. If you want some VERY light coverage for a concealer this is for you. I do have to mention that this is very hydrating so it didn't cake up up me even in the winter months when my undereye can get quite dry. It was also very easy to spread and blend.
This would be a good product to keep in your purse for a touch up concealer throughout the day, probably not good for use in the AM unless youre looking for a very light coverage.
I purchased this in hopes of concealing hereditary dark circles. I've spent a lot of time and money over the years making that attempt. Here's yet another failed attempt to find the HG concealer that will do the trick for me. The price wasn't bad at all for Sephora-level cosmetics, but I DO expect quality for that $20, and was sorely disappointed.
Josie Maran's concealer pencil has a really nice texture, feels good against the skin, and the color was a good match and stayed true to color over time. However, it didn't conceal a damned thing. This stuff practically *SLID* off my undereyes within 30 minutes. The lasting power of this concealer was nonexistent. While it was there, though, it kept consistent in color.
I tried it again over a primer -- instead of sliding off, it caked up in the creases in my skin and added 10 years to my face. Wasn't that a lovely bonus?
On the plus side, I returned it to Sephora, and used the money to buy a Beauty Blender.

I love this product, it is so natural and easy to use. I have dry skin and primarily use this as an under eye concealer. "Light 1" is perfect for me right now.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
The reviews listed are misleading. Although the packaging claims to combat dark circles, it's known that a heavy pencil concealer or thick jar concealer is not meant for the under eye area. Liquid concealers only! It's of course going to settle into fine lines when it's so thick.
That being said, when used for dark spots or blemishes this concealer is very good. Especially with a good primer. It also doesn't create new breakouts, containing no highly comedogenic ingredients or irritants. Overall it's actually an awesome product.
There's "creamy," and then there's "slick." This crayon glides on beautifully but it has absolutely no stay-put power whatsoever. I applied it, blinked thrice, and BLAMMO my under-eye wrinkles were suddenly muddy canyons of concealer. I tried patting it out and setting it with powder-- no go. It just carried the powder into my wrinkles with it, like an overexcited labradoodle hauling its owner to the dog park. This product is proof positive that argan oil does not belong in everything.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I steer clear of solid concealers for many reasons, mostly for greasiness, lack of coverage, and the fact that they always look really obvious on my skin. However after reading the glowing reviews on QVCs website I just had to try this one.
I am an NC10-15 but I hate when concealers are too pale. So instead of getting the palest one I bought the next shade up, Light 1. This is just a tiny bit darker than my natural skin color, and very yellow. If it wasn't so yellow then I think I would be able to work with this a whole lot more.
It is creamy but in a greasy, oily way (it is formulated with Argan oil so it is bound to be greasy) and this greasiness prevents me from building up the coverage. I apply a layer, pat gently into my skin, then try to apply another layer on top. The second layer just slides around on top and it looks obvious that I am wearing thick concealer. I have dry cheeks but very oily forehead, nose and chin and this concealer doesn't work on my oily bits. I have 2 huge dark spots on my forehead and this concealer just slides around without covering them up.
My undereye area has a lot of fine lines and dark circles, and this concealer just doesn't work. It creases in my lines and doesn't cover my circles. If you have good skin then this concealer might be perfect for you (but if you have good skin then you might not need concealer). Won't buy again, and I am beginning to think that Josie Maran products are not the best for me.

"This was enough to convince us that the loot drops were absolutely not random, because it was just too incredibly unlikely that in four months of raiding, we would be getting multiples of one class type of gear and sharding it, while our sister raid would be getting all of the gear that we weren't, and sharding it as well. If it were truly random, it would even out over time. But it wasn't. The discrepancies just got worse and worse."
Just 4 months of raids? That's what, 20 or so runs? Now consider just one boss, that for simplicities sake has an even chance to drop a set item for any given class. Now the more likely result is you'll get a mix of class items but getting 20 priest items is still a possibility. Getting just priest and warrior items is even more likely. The chance of getting *no priest drop at all* in 20 runs is 7%. The same chance of rolling 1-7 on /roll and that happens all the time. Factor in the massive numbers of guilds running these raids and some of them are bound to get weird streaks.
To extrapolate to real life: consider 'co-incidences' - things which seem to be really random events that you assume couldn't happen by chance, ie. you meeting someone and them having both the same first name and birthday as you. The odds of this one event happening are tiny, but given the billons of events that happen to us all across the world every second, the chance of at least one person experiencing an unlikely co-incidence is infact extremely likely! In WoW, the chance of your guild getting a really weird run of all the same loot is tiny. The chance of any one guild seeing this, out of the thousands that raid, is actually fairly high.

Chef instructor Chris Uyehara's HPM 300 – Pacific Islands & Fusion Cuisines class held a recent workshop where students prepared food from the various geographic locations they studied during the semester. The last workshop included a luau. The class focuses on the exploration of the foods, eating practices, and customs, both today and historically, associated with foods of the different cultures and/or ethnic groups that have become, or are becoming, integral parts of the Pacific Islands and the Hawaiian culture, and how today's foods are a reflection of these many sources. Through the spring 2014 semester, students explored cultures throughout the Pacific Islands, from the US to South America, Australia and East Asia. Focus of learning was the origins and migration of different foods among varied cultural and geographical areas, as well appreciation of the role that food has played in the life of multiple cultural groups over time. The economic impact of food production and consumption and the impact of such agricultural economics on the preparation and usage of foods, historically and today, was also explored.

On Saturday, April 5, students in the Falk College's hospitality management program hosted family, friends, faculty, administrators and members of the hospitality industry for the 11th Annual Senior Class Gala. The event, which was themed "The Great Gatsby," was held at the Goldstein Alumni and Faculty Center. The students work with faculty and staff to develop a budget, create invitations, plan the menu and fully execute a unique culinary experience for the event's guests.
The students organizing the event held a silent auction, in conjunction with the gala. They secured donations for the silent auction, which benefitted the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Central New York. Proceeds to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation are being tallied at this time and will be reported when they are available. In the past five years, the Gala has brought in $14,783 for various charities. This year's total will make the historical total close to $20,000.
Falk College culinary specialist, Bill Collins, was recently cited by Best Chefs America in its inaugural edition highlighting the nation's best chefs in the country. More than 5,000 chefs were interviewed between March - December of 2012, and then software was used to aggregate the data. The resulting data named the best chefs in the United States, growing food trends in the country, and the most influential chefs in the country.
Syracuse University honored students, faculty, staff and community partners who exemplify SU's commitment to engagement with the community and Scholarship in Action with the 2013 Chancellor's Award for Public Engagement and Scholarship (CAPES) on April 24.

Van Ness Large Enclosed Cat Litter Pan is made from a high impact plastic with stain resistant properties. The plastic liner holds in place, while the top hood enclosure features 4 locking latches to the base to ensure a tight fit.

Nature's Miracle Multi-Cat Self-Cleaning Hooded Litter Box has a motion sensor activated feature that automatically cleans with a delay and sleep timer property. The waste is put into a receptacle compartment that has a flashing indicator alert light to let you know when it needs to be changed.

The old college spin
When a large company has to deal with events that might cast it in a negative light — outsourcing of jobs, embezzlement or bankruptcy to name a few — it's not uncommon for a public relations campaign to be mounted to minimize the damage to its image. Nor is it unusual for such "crisis" communications to extend to the Internet and for messages to be posted on talk boards, comment sections or blogs to help shape the public's view.

Abiding Above - May 8, 2013
Where Are You?
May 8, 2013
"And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, "Abba, Father!" - Galatians 4:1-6
Where are you? Is this not the same question God asked Adam and Eve when they sinned in the Garden of Eden? You can know that when there is sin in your own life, God by his Holy Spirit, is crying out "Abba, Father?" into the hearts of all of His children. God always knows where we are. When we sin we have turned our backs on what God says is right. God longs to be reunited with His children when, in sin, they turn from Him. We are always in relationship with the Father, but our sin separates us from Him. He is a Holy, and righteous God who cannot be in the presence of our sin. And, whether you understand it or not, you too, long to be reunited with your heavenly Father. Therefore we need to confess and repent of those things in our life that are sin, immediately the burden is lifted, and your fellowship is restored.
Are you having a quiet time, reading God's word, spending time in prayer, and going to church? Turn to Him in confession, and repentance, and repent of what it is that is holding you back, and you will once again experience the love, mercy, and grace of your heavenly Father.

Design guidelines describe the criteria by which the Architectural Review Committees (ARCs) and staff evaluate proposed exterior alterations. They are intended to serve as a reference and a resource for property owners, clarifying in advance what is expected. The ARC or staff determines the appropriateness of a project after reviewing all applicable guidelines. The goal is to strike a balance that best serves both the resource and the owner. There is no scoring or minimum number of guidelines to be met.
Design guidelines provide (1) an overview of the distinctive characteristics of each district and individual landmark, and (2) the statement of principles and standards governing exterior alterations to structures or properties of each district and landmarks. The guidelines do not dictate styles or specific design motifs. Instead, they suggest a choice of approaches for achieving design compatibility.
