Nokia E7 Symbian^3 Announced
Looking for a new business phone that isn't a Blackberry? Good news, because Nokia has introduced the E7, a Symbian^3 phone. Sure, it's all touchscreen, but hidden beneath is a full QWERTY keyboard. Don't worry, it ain't fat as it only measures 13.8mm thin. They've also tossed in an 8 megapixel shooter that can capture 720p video and 16GB of built-in storage. It ships with Microsoft Exchange support and also has an HDMI connection in addition to Dolby Digital Plus Surround Sound. In terms of battery life Nokia says to expect 18 days of standby and 9 hours of talk time. It will launch in Q4 of 2010 off contract for $645 US and come in silver white, dark grey, green, blue and orange.

FRANKENSTEIN GIVEAWAY (photos courtsey of benedictcumberbatchfanjp.org as I did not have my camera)
Hello dear tumblr!
I have decided to giveaway my Frankenstein lenticular print of the National Theatre production. It is the one shown above, with Benedict as Victor and Johnny as Creature. It changes between the two images depending on where you look at it, with Johnny being the main one visible.
It's been sitting on my floor for more then a year since I got it, so I figured it may as well go to someone who will use it.
- One like and two reblogs ONLY for 3 entries.
- If you are following me, you will get a bonus entry, totalling 4 entries.
- You must have your ask open for me to contact you.
- If you win, a response to the winning ask needs to be made in 24 hours or a new winner will be chosen.
- I will post anywhere worldwide.
- No fake blogs please.
- Ends: 27th July, 9pm (GMT+10 hours, aka, east coast of Australia. Work out that for your own timezone.)
Good luck!
Edit: To clarify, it is the ONE print which shows both images, like the 3D DVD covers you can get.
why do i even try finding new and decent moriarty/sherlock fics?
my face is forever like this while trolling ao3/lj/:
lol girl I know that feel. Every once in a blue moon I look and it's so disheartening. They're all the same,…

Music Education
Area of Performing, Visual, and Communicative Arts
The Music and Music Education majors support the following goals of Milligan College:
The music curriculum at Milligan seeks to produce life-long learners and lovers of music, as well as accomplished performers and avid music consumers The primary goal of the Music Area is to produce well-trained musicians who enjoy music and music making while also viewing music as a way to enhance and improve the quality of life.
All Milligan Students
Milligan College offers a wide variety of lessons including voice, piano, guitar, organ, brass, woodwinds, strings, and percussion instruments. In addition, the music area has numerous choral and instrumental ensembles. Applied study and ensemble participation are available to all students at Milligan College.
Music Majors and Minors: Admission to Program
In order to be appropriately placed in the music program at Milligan College, a prospective student must:
Music Education – B.A.
The music education curriculum is designed as an interdisciplinary program for the student planning a career in teaching music. Licensure is K-12 vocal/general or K-12 instrumental. This degree requires nine semesters of study.
Music Education - Instrumental or Vocal
Required courses (includes Teacher Licensure Requirements and Professional Education Courses) in the major:
* FOR INSTRUMENTAL - A standard band or orchestral instrument must be the principal concentration
*FOR VOCAL - Voice must be the principal or secondary concentration
*All music majors whose principal instrument is piano must enroll in one semester of organ study. (.5 hr)
**MUSC 101, 102, 201 Piano as Secondary Concentration instead of applied study if the secondary area of concentration is piano (6 hrs)
***In order to be eligible for a senior recital, students need to have successfully completed a junior recital.
Additional Licensure Requirements
Music education majors must engage in field experience during the first two weeks of a secondary school's fall semester in order to satisfy the Tennessee licensure requirements. Students have the sole responsibility for arranging this field experience and must keep a journal which they will submit to their adviser immediately following and as part of their required work for MUSC 451/EDUC 534.
Verification of CPR and/or first aid proficiency is required for approval to student teach.
Students completing any teacher education program are required to take the Praxis II test "Principles of Learning and Teaching" (#0621 PLT for Early Childhood [score 155], #0622 PLT for K-6 [score 158], #0623 PLT for 5-9 [score 158] or #0624 PLT for 7-12 [score155]). Students will register for all Praxis exams at www.ets.org.
The following general education requirements are fulfilled in the major:
Total number of required hours: 85.5
To earn a bachelor's degree, a student must complete 128 semester hours in courses with course numbers at the 100 level or above. In addition to courses in the major (and minor, if applicable), students must complete the requirements for a bachelor of arts degree as described on Pages 41-43 of the 2013-14 catalog. The B.A. degree requires foreign language through the intermediate level.
† Graduate Credit Option
Music education students planning to enter the Master of Education programafter completing their undergraduate degree should consider taking the following courses for graduate credit (EDUC 534, 535, 536, and 537).
These courses will count toward both the undergraduate degree (beyond the 128 hour requirement) and for the Master of Education degreeat Milligan College. If the courses are taken for graduate credit, there will be graduate level objectives and assignments.
These courses will replace the following required courses in the Master of Education degree program:
Taking these courses would permit music education students to complete a Master of Education program in 12 months beyond their undergraduate program. For additional information, contact the Director of Teacher Certification or Area Chair for Education.For additional information about the teacher licensure program or about the Praxis II exams required for licensure, including a list of courses required for licensure, see the Education: Licensure Programs section of the Catalog.
Applied Study
Applied music study for the music major may be in voice, piano, organ, guitar, brass, woodwinds, strings, or percussion. Either the principal or the secondary applied area for the music major must be piano, unless a proficiency (MUSC 207) in piano is demonstrated. Preparation for the proficiency will be developed through class instruction (MUSC 101, 102, 201 – Piano as a Secondary Concentration) unless it is the judgment of the piano faculty that a student's substantial background in piano warrants private lessons (MUSC 104 – Applied Study-Piano). All music majors whose principal instrument is piano must enroll in one semester of organ study.
Each semester of their applied study, Music majors take a jury in their principal applied area, unless they have completed a junior or senior recital after mid-term. Please note that if you choose to continue your principal applied study in future semesters after completing your degree requirements, you will be subject to the course requirements in the syllabus about recital performance, juries, etc. Music majors also take a jury in their secondary area each semester of their applied study, unless their secondary instrument is piano. Students with piano as their secondary concentration take MUSC 207-Piano Proficiency when the professor deems the student prepared.
Music majors must participate in a primary ensemble which uses their particular applied study skill and is approved by their applied professor for six semester hours. (Primary Ensembles: Concert Choir, Women's Chorale, Jazz Ensemble, Civic Band, and Orchestra.) Participation in ensembles will not result in tuition overload charges should the student exceed enrollment in more than 18 hours per semester due to the ensemble credit hours.
Concert and recital attendance
Concert and recital attendance (90%/semester of scheduled performances) is required of the music major for eight semesters. Failure to meet all recital attendance requirements results in a half a letter grade (5 points) reduction in every music class final average for the semester.
Senior Major Exam
The senior major exam, which is required of all baccalaureate degree-seeking students and evaluates the students' achievement of learning outcomes in their major fields of study, will be fulfilled by successfully completing MUSC 408 Senior Recital, MUSC 490 Senior Project, or MUSC 499C Mentored Research. (In order to be eligible for a senior recital, students need to have successfully completed a junior recital.)

This week I can almost smell the fear of China wafting from the corridors of Whitehall.
It's not anything China has done today or even this year - it is the nation's relentless, unceasing, unstoppable march towards accepted and undeniable super-power status. So the Tories have been plugging the idea of a new special relationship with the other super-power-in-waiting, India.
I have to admit that it was with some glee that I listened to an ex-Indian prime ministerial advisor on BBC Radio 4 being quizzed on some of the good things about the UK. It had a whiff of the future Wimbledon champion being pressed to praise Tim Henman's backhand. To be fair, Rahul Roy-Chaudhury from the International Institute for Strategic Studies was pretty positive about the potential for a relationship between the old colonial bully and the ex-colony.
But the beautiful drop volley came when Mr Roy-Chaudhury explained that India has 23 strategic partnerships with other countries and that now that the US relationship is well-set, they can look towards increasing the UK entente cordiale. As he ended this phrase, he slipped in quietly - and if he smirked I couldn't hear it in his voice - "Clearly the US is the most important".
Earlier in the day, the BBC Radio 4 Today Programme had taken a package from its correspondent in Bangalore. He was asking passers-by to name the people in two photographs. Everyone could name footballer David Beckham, but PM David Cameron went unrecognised.
I lived in India for three years, most of that working for the British Council in New Delhi. I remember once being brought up a little short when a student in my class did a presentation on why India would be the world super-power within 50 years. His speech was met with blanket agreement from his peer audience, who without any doubt saw their country on an economic path to rival the US. At the time I thought this very ambitious. I've done a volte face since.
What I had already learned, however, was that amongst the Indian middle classes the UK was no longer thought of as important enough to be either friend or foe. And even the most enthusiastic arguer allowed only for the acknowledgment of the railway network and government bureaucracy as positive legacies of the "shared history" that has been bandied around this week. One friend used to tell me off severely for looking at the Indo-British relationship through such deeply rose-coloured spectacles that I "couldn't see the blood of Indians on British hands".
Prime Minister Cameron is quite right to be visiting India with the 'spirit of humility'. The Indian Independence Act of 1947 brought to an end the British Indian Empire. Although the Partition Plan tabled by Viceroy Mountbatten was perhaps the best compromise while still in the dark about Mohammad Ali Jinnah's terminal cancer, the execution of the plan saw up to 1 million people die and approximately 12.5 million people displaced. And that's before you look at direct British violence against Indians during colonial rule - such as the Jallianwala Bagh massacre in 1919 or the Qissa Khwani bazaar massacre in 1930.
I once showed a class in Kochi, Kerala a Peters Projection map of the world indicating land area. One student made the observation of how very tiny Britain is in comparison to India. Another suggested that if Indians had known this at the time they would have thrown us out way before 1947.
I can't help thinking that even 63 years of independence later, the Indian Government must be relishing Cameron's visit, knowing that they are now firmly in the economic driving seat.

29 Scared1 Reviews
Almost to the end.
Party looked legitly scared. I mean, I've seen him scared, but not like this.
"I don't know, Violet," he said, running in the diner and pulling his spaceman glasses off, sprinting out of my sight.
"Wait, Gerard!" I yelled, running through the main room to the diner part of the diner, pulling my sunglasses and my scarf off, trying to follow Party as best I could. "Where's Current?"
Party just kept running through the diner, looking into little holes and through doorways, which there were really none. He stopped and pulled out his radio. "Double P to anybody out there, anybody seen Double K, JS, The Boogie Man, or a blue haired girl names Shockwave Current?" He barked into the radio, pacing in the diner part. A cackle of static greeted Party, and he turned to his radio, looking at it anxiously.
"You got Double L to Double P, just saw the Death Machine at the Black," a female's voice said over the cackling, and Party nodded, even though it was a radio.
"Gracias, Double L. You see any of the gang?" Party asked, looking at the radio with concern.
"Hell yes. They were walking in and talking about a BL/ind fight…" Double L trailed off, static overpowering any words she might have said.
"Thank you, Double L," Party said into the radio, putting it back on his belt and running outside to the camo garage.
"Gerard, wait up!" I yelled, trying to wrap my mind around it all. "It's almost dark!"
Party looked at me as he jumped into my army truck, something that hasn't been used in forever. "Good thing trucks have headlights. You have any nitrous in this thing?" he asked, drumming his fingers on the steering wheel anxiously.
I ran to the back of the truck, pulled out a tank of NOS, and ran to the front, popping the hood. "30 seconds. Time me," I told Party, who watched me as I unhooked the empty tank, threw it aside, hooked up the new tank, and slammed the hood shut, jumping in the passenger's seat. "Go."
Party smirked and hit the metal with the pedal, my truck screaming in protest. I patted my dashboard, hoping this thing wouldn't break down. "That was 24 seconds, by the way," Party said, shifting from 3rd gear to 4th gear.
I smile-smirked and put my Bans on, looking into the eyes of the sun. "I've always loved looking into the sun…" I said, my eyes watering. "It's like a never-ending game of Chicken, you know?" I asked Party, looking at him putting his glasses on.
"Violet…" he said, smirking even bigger. "You shouldn't stare at the sun. It's bad for your eyes," he said, looking at me and smiling. "You don't want to be blind, trust me."
I snorted once, my smirk turning a little sour. "I have been. Korse…" I said, looking out the window at the horizon. I sighed and shut my eyes, wishing for more sleep. My thoughts jumped around again, and I drifted in and out of consciousness, wanting to sleep but wanting to stay up the three hour drive.
Somewhere in the recesses of my mind, I see my mom, smiling. Her red hair is loose around her shoulders, and her green eyes are shining, looking at me lovingly. She's clad in a white, billowing dress, one that looks more like bipolar shadows hanging on her slender figure than a dress. She holds a hand out to me, still smiling. "Jennifer," she says, making me cringe. "Don't lose yourself." I looked at her, confused but not saying a word, as she begins to fade into the white light that's coming from behind her, blinding me. I nod as she departs and she smiles even wider at me, standing still, the dress billowing around her like wind. "Remember who you truly love, Jennifer."
"Violet?" I heard Party say as my mom begins fading, and I opened my eyes, my face touching the dashboard and my mouth slightly open.
I groaned and sat up, facing total darkness. "Gerard, I'm blind," I said, worried, feeling over my eyes with my left hand and touching a piece of cold plastic. I knitted my eyebrows together and felt around the plastic, laughing softly as I realized it was just my Bans that I had on. I pulled them off my head, but it was still dark. "Uh, Gerard, I'm still fuckin' blind."
Party sighed. "You're truck died on us, Vi," he said, and I noticed the silence that hung between us once he stopped talking.
I bit the inside of my cheek. "You have a flashlight on you, Gee?" I asked, turning in the direction of his voice. I hear him moving around and I bent over my knees, feeling the bottom of the truck for something that could provide light. I felt my headphones brush my fingers and smiled, grabbing the headphones and pulling them up, praying to God that my iPod was still attached to the audio jack. My iPod hits me in the face, making me curse and rub my face when it already felt hot from the impact. I swing my hand through the air, trying to catch the silent ninja of my iPod, attempting to stop it within mid-air. I got hit in the face again, the same spot as before. "God damn it!" I hiss, putting my hand over my eye and setting my headphones on my lap. I felt for the cord on my lap and went down that with my fingers, searching for my ninja iPod. I felt the cold rush of steel and smiled into the darkness, turning it on and changing the settings so it would always be on for a while at maximum power.
I looked at Party, who was smiling at me. "Thank you, Violet," he said, kissing my lightly on the cheek. I smiled sheepishly and blushed a little, taking my iPod in my hand and searching the ground for the flashlight I should have. "Got it!" Party said, pulling it from under the driver's seat and turning it on, blinding me with light.
I blinked. "Damn, forgot how bright artificial light was," I mumbled, taking the light from Party's hand and opening the passenger's door. "Gerard, you might want to play some music while you wait, this may take a while," I called, walking to the front of the army truck and glaring at it.
I opened the hood of my truck, putting the flashlight in my mouth and holding it as best I could with my teeth. "Herrrr…" I said to myself, propping the truck's hood up with a thick, durable piece of wire and taking the flashlight out of my mouth. I scanned the engine, looking for anything smoking or leaking. Nothing. "Hey, Gee," I called, pulling the oil rod out of its plastic tube, "what was the car doing before it died?"
"Well, we were almost to the Black, and your truck just kinda died, no lights, no signals, nothing. Thank god your truck has non-electrical brakes, because we were hauling ass," Party replied, looking at me and opening his door. "What happened to your truck?" he asked, stepping out of my truck and walking over to me, using my iPod as a small source of light.
I looked at the oil rod, examining the oil, deep in thought. "Yes, yes it is…" I mused, frowning at the oil. "Needs a change," I said, putting the rod back in the tube. I looked at the battery, my frown deepening. "Hey, Gerard, go and turn on the truck, please?" I asked, staring the battery down.
Party nodded and walked back to the driver's side of my truck, leaning in and turning the key in the ignition. The battery shivered, sending sparks flying around me and lighting up the night sky for a second. I palmed me face at the sparks. "Duh, Violet," I said, watching the sparks dance around with the stars. "Gerard, under the driver's seat there should be a box of flares. Light up a few."
Party nodded, smirking, and bent over the seat to reach under the seat, giving the dark night and I a nice view of his grey-jeaned butt. I smirked and looked back down at my work. "Gee…" I mumbled, shaking my head. "Damn battery," I said, beginning to unhook the wires and cables of the engine from it. I tossed the useless battery behind me, one handed with a twenty pound battery, hitting something with a loud thump.
"OW!" the thing behind me said, and I pulled up my mask and whipped my gun out, spinning to face the dark behind me. I raised my gun, finger itching to pull the trigger, searching the dark and meeting a pair of yellow eyes, illuminating a little blast of blue something by the eyes.
"Current!" I yelled, lowering my gun and raising my flashlight towards the eyes. I broke out in a smile. Sure enough, Current was standing in front of me, smiling. "Where the fuck have you been?!"
Current's smile grew wider and she walked over for a hug. "Sorry, Rage, the guys and I went to the Black as soon as we heard your broadcast. Death has it on replay."
I smirked at Current. "At least tell people where you were going. Party and I had to call over Station 5B just to find somebody who saw you guys."
"Shockwave?" Party called, raising his head from the truck, holding a number of flares and making that sexy butt of his to disappear. "Where are the guys?"
Current smiled and let out a short breath, almost to do a snort. "They're gathering people up at the Black. We went as soon as we heard Rage's message. Nice job, by the way," Current said, looking at me. "If I were out of the Zones and heard that, I would haul ass to come destroy Korse forever."
I smirked. "Second time…" I said, looking into the night. I shook my head and looked back at the engine. "Can one of you hold the hood open and keep the cables from touching?" I asked Party and Current, looking at them, raising an eyebrow. "I need to go get another battery from the back." Party and Current both nodded, chatting quietly and taking the wire's job of holding the hood open. I nodded once and walked to the back of my truck, digging through piles of alcohol and tarps, coming to an enormous black steel box. "My precious," I whispered, feeling a little Sweeny Todd-ish as I opened the box's lid. I dug around some more for a car battery, pulling out one that's seen better days but still worked well. "I'll need to buy another one of you guys at the Black," I said to the battery, shutting the box and stuffing it back in its mound of tarp and alcohol. I walked to the front of the truck, holding the battery, shifting it from hand to hand.
Current walked up to me as soon as I got to the front of the truck. "Awh," she said, hugging me. I looked up at Party and mouthed, Help me, to him, but he chuckled and shook his head, a sleepy smile on his face. "Rage, you shoulda told me you and Poison were Poisoned Rage," Current said, smirking. "Does this mean you two are going to get married or something?"
I raised an eyebrow at her. "Current, two things. One, I don't think Killjoys can marry until they retire. Just all the fighting and stuff… And two, Party told you?"
Current smiled and nodded. "I think you two should get married. Fun might be jealous, but it'll work out," she said, still smiling.
I groaned. "Can we talk about this later and get my truck working again?" I asked, exasperated, and Current nodded, still being a little ball of sunshine. She walked over to the hood of the truck and held the hood open again, letting Party light up a few flares.
"You guys might wanna but your sunglasses on, besides Violet, of course," Party said, looking at me and giving me a warm smile. I blushed and looked down at the engine, beginning to connect the battery to the engine. He gave a flare to Current and walked over to me, watching me work. "Can Killjoys marry, Violet?" he asked softly as I wrapped a wire around the positive side of the battery, making me shock myself.
"I don't know, Party," I said, shaking my shocked finger around and sucking on it. "Maybe."
Party nodded. "If Killjoys could, would you and I…?" he asked, looking up at me with his hazel eyes looking dreamy.
I looked up at him with my green eyes and smiled a reassuring smile, taking my finger out of my mouthe. "Of course we would. Why wouldn't we?" I hooked the last cable to the battery and smiled bigger. "Go turn the truck on," I said to Party, and he smiled, walking to the driver's side and turning the key. I saw a spark of light, and then the truck was running again. "Hell yes!" I said, jumping in the air and doing a karate kick in the air. I turned towards Current. "You need a ride?"

A transformação de valores em preços segundo o Sistema Temporal Único: uma apreciação crítica
AbstractThis article presents a critique of the solution of the Temporal Single System Marxism (TSS) for the problem of transforming values into prices, which establishes that values and prices are simultaneously determined in a sucession of periods of production and circulation; the value transferred by constant and varaible capital are not equal to the value of the goods they purchase but to the value of the money used to purchase these goods; and money represents a definite number of labor hours. It shows that the TSS does not go beyond the Samuelson-Steedman's criticism, according to which values and prices are separately determined. In their attempt to salve "Marx's lemma", the defenders of this approach re-read Marx's Capital, discharging the long run equilibrium method, adopting an ideal concept of money in the place of commodity-money, abandoning the axiom that value is not generated in circulation and breaking with the structural logic of Capital. Despite criticizing the traditional usage of simultaneous equations to deal with the transformation question, they end up generating simultaneous equations that converge towards the tradicional long-run equilibrium positions.

Emerita (e-MER-ita) has been a leading brand of natural women's wellness products since 1978. They're proud to be women-operated, and their mission is "improving the health and lives of women"—a cause that makes them excited to come to work every day.
In the early days, they marketed natural midlife products through the Transitions For Health catalog and through physicians' offices. The catalog even appeared in an episode of the TV show Sex & the City. Then in the 1990s, their flagship progesterone cream, Pro-Gest Cream, was first introduced at natural food stores, launching a whole category of natural wellness products for mature women. Since then, Emerita has expanded its offerings to include intimacy, feminine care and health supplements, as well. Today, Emerita products are sold in natural food stores across the country, as well as through many online retailers.
Emerita has long been a socially-responsible company that respects and empowers its employees, while operating in an open and collaborative fashion. Emerita also has a long history as an advocate for women, valuing education about women's health issues.
Emerita Philosophy
Emerita understands that their business affects the environment, and they believe it's their responsibility to care for the health and balance of the planet, just as they have been caring for the health and balance of women for the past 35 years. Emerita is committed to continually monitoring ongoing scientific and technological discoveries to identify the best and healthiest choices for all their products.
The Products
For Emerita's products, they use only plant- and mineral-derived ingredients whenever possible. When these options aren't available they utilize research from sources such as the European Union, Environmental Working Group, the Breast Cancer Fund, and others for recommendations on the safest stabilizing chemicals available to produce the highest-quality product.
Emerita products do not contain mineral oil, petroleum, phthalates, sodium laurel sulfate, or animal anything. The products are never tested on animals. And aside from their OH Warming Lubricant (which contains honey), they contain no animal products. The cotton used in Emerita tampons is certified organic by the Ethical and Environmental Institute (ICEA). The cotton in Emerita tampons, pads, and pantyliners is cleansed by chlorine-free methods, which means they are free from traces of dioxins from chlorine bleaching.
Emerita Practices
Don't fret! Check out these suggested similar and related items below. Happy shopping!
Emerita - Feminine Hygiene Pads 100% Natural Cotton Individually Wrapped Ultra Thin Winged Daytime Fragrance-Free - 10 Pads
You wouldn't wear plastic underwear. So why choose a pad that's not natural? Did you know that pad packaging is not required to list ingredients? It can be hard to know what's in your pad. Many brands contain plastic coversheets or wood pulp fillers--not breathable cotton. Emerita's pads are vagina friendly! Emerita's Pads are made with 100% Natural Cotton coversheet and core. 100% Natural Cotton means only soft, natural cotton is next to your skin. Cotton is breathable, absorbent and naturally wicks away moisture. Organic means pesticide-free. Chlorine-free means free from dioxin, a known carcinogen. Fragrance-free means no chemical perfumes, and hypoallergenic means less risk of irritation. Plus, cotton is a great natural fiber that can hold up to 20 times its weight in liquid.
The Ultra Thin Daytime Pad is individually wrapped and winged for extra protection. This pad is longer and wider than other natural brands for superior coverage.
The Ultra Thin Overnight Pad is also individually wrapped and winged, but longer and wider for extra protection while sleeping. Both Ultra Thin pads are designed with leak control channels.
The Classic Contour Pad is soft and absorbent for heavy flow days.
Why aren't all pads made this way? Emerita doesn't know. Women deserve a choice, because what you put next to your skin matters.
Look How Far We've Come… In the early days of disposable pads shopping, stores featured drop-boxes where women could place money so they wouldn't have to speak to a clerk or take a box of pads from the counter themselves. Back then, it was a wash-and-wear world where feminine hygiene was really about old cloths and pins. Then mid-century brought the advancement of the belt, famously lampooned in this Tina-Fey-penned Saturday Night Live skit. Let's face it: Nobody loved the belt ;)
The latter part of the 20th Century brought a flurry of advancements in feminine protection, but not always with consideration for protecting a woman's delicate vaginal balance topmost in mind. Some brands of pads and pantyliners began incorporating super-absorbent additives to help them absorb more while staying as thin as possible. Kind of like disposable baby diapers. They also incorporated plastic material in their coversheets. You started seeing decorative inks and designs, kind of like with paper towels. Chemical perfumes were added, too. All of this likely had many benefits in terms of making the products more appealing to consumers. But the conversation seldom came up about what these materials meant for women's bodies.
Needless to say, that's a lot of plastic material close to your skin—in a place of the body that's happiest when it gets to breathe. If women do experience irritation, a study by Harris Interactive showed they're likely to assume it's a yeast infection, as opposed to wondering whether it could be from some chemical exposure, or from lack of breathability.
Today, the conversation is changing again—finally—as women are becoming more aware of the health benefits of natural cotton. Emerita hopes you'll not only learn more about our products, but that you'll also find the spirit to help your daughters, sisters and friends learn about the benefits as well.
Thank you for helping Emerita carry on their mission of "improving the health and lives of women."
You wouldn't wear plastic underwear so why wear a pad that's not natural?What you put next to your skin matters. Pad/pantyliner packaging is not required to list ingredients, so it can be hard to know what your pad is made of. Many store brands contain plastic coversheets, wood pulp filler or other materials that are not breathable cotton.
Emerita Pads and Pantyliners are:
Why aren't all pads and pantyliners made this way? Emerita doesn't know.
Dioxins, Plastics, Perfumes? Doesn't it make you just itch to know what your pantyliner is made of?Introducing the new age of products designed from a women's health perspective. Many pantyliners you'll find on store shelves are made with super-absorbent chemical additives, and many feature plastic coversheets as well. This may be nice for enhancing absorbency. But you wouldn't wear plastic underwear, so why wear a pad that's not natural?
It's a conversation whose time has come, as more women are learning to question what their feminine care products are made of… as well as what that exposure to chemicals and synthetic materials may mean for themselves, their friends and daughters.
Many women use pantyliners daily. So, particularly if you're a young woman, you have many, many years of potential chemical exposure ahead of you. The average woman will have periods for about 38 years, and she may use pantyliners far beyond her menstruating days for normal vaginal discharge or light incontinence. More research is needed to understand the potential health impacts of this ongoing exposure.
And it can be hard to know what your pantyliners are even made of in the first place because most pad and pantyliner packages don't list ingredients. In short, you may know more about what's in your shampoo or toothpaste than what's in your pantyliner.
Emerita's starting a revolution...a feminine hygiene revolution, that is!Choose products that are made with your health and best interest in mind. Why aren't all tampons and pads made that way? Emerita doesn't know. Learn more—and help Emerita spread the word!
When Emerita did their homework on the feminine hygiene industry they were shocked. And then they were outraged. Why had nobody warned women what tampons were made of? Why have women been exposing themselves to irritation-provoking pads and tampons over years and years of periods? Why is nobody talking about this? It's time that women know about feminine hygiene products. Tell your mothers, sisters, daughters, granddaughters and friends—what you put in your body matters!
Emerita is championing this cause full force… by introducing products that are made with women's health in mind…and by launching an education campaign encouraging women to really think about what they're buying—and why. Emerita is introducing a line of 100% Organic Cotton Tampons and 100% Natural Cotton Pads and Pantyliners. They're all chlorine-free, which means they're free from dioxin, a carcinogen. Plus, they're made without synthetics and potentially-irritating chemical additives. Just 100% breathable cotton goodness.
Emerita is doing this because their mission is "Improving the health & lives of women." Emerita is a woman-owned, woman-operated company. That means they're bunch of ladies, and they actually use the products they make on a regular basis. Emerita cares not only about the quality of their products… but also about the quality of their consumer education.
Emerita has never shied away from talking to women about "taboo" subjects, like menopause and sexual vitality, so they're more than ready to tackle the often-undiscussed topics of periods and tampons and pads. And that's also why, with confidence, Emerita can proudly come to you with their newest product line.
Help Emerita spread the word and educate women.

Curbing motorcycle noise an ongoing effort for police
State Troopers patrol Weirs Beach during Laconia's 90th Bike Week on Friday. (DAVID LANE/UNION LEADER)
"He had some problems as a result of what he did," Nashua police Capt. Bruce Hansen recalled Friday.
"We cited him for no muffler," he said.
Police can pull over a rider if they believe the motorcycle he or she is operating violates decibel limits and then test the bike with a noise-measuring device. But Nashua police don't often use their decibel meters.
Factors to consider
State Police Sgt. Stephen Kace, the liaison to the state Division of Motor Vehicles, said testing a motorcycle for noise isn't just simply pointing a decibel-measuring device. Certain conditions, such as wind and proximity to buildings, need to be considered.
In Manchester, Lt. Jim Flanagan said patrol officers don't usually carry noise meters in their cruisers but could call for one to be delivered as needed. Police, instead, set up a noise-testing station - a 32-foot circle with the motorcycle in the middle - up to a half-dozen times during the summer months.
Manchester police might conduct a noise station at the corner of Valley and Elm streets, getting permission from a business owner to use a parking lot.
Compliance time given
Police don't always cite operators and sometimes write up bikes for defective equipment and give their operators a certain amount of time to comply with state laws, Flanagan said.
"Motorcycle noise is a quality-of-life issue," Flanagan said. "It's a big problem (in Manchester). It's a problem throughout the state."

Former "Girls Next Door" dolls "Holly Madison" Las Vegas "The Handprint Ceremony Planet Hollywood Restaurant" in hand gave an example of the pressure.
Holly Madison, hand printing, while an example low-cut dress she wore a deep chest overflowing breasts, of course, was more interesting.
As for her boyfriend Jack Barakat, Holly says she's happier than she's ever been in a relationship.
"He's a really down to earth guy," she explained. "I feel like he's really real and he knows me for who I am. I can say whatever in front of him and he's cool with it."
"I love that Jack has a sense of humor and I can just be myself around him. I don't need to be like Miss Priss or Betty Crocker. I feel like every guy that I dated before him expected that."

The Montreal Canadiens were without captain Saku Koivu and defenceman Mark Streit for Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The extent of the injuries won't be known until doctors take a closer look on Monday, but radio station Team 990 in Montreal reported that Koivu could be out of the lineup for four weeks.
The club denied the report prior to the game.
Both players suffered their injuries in Friday's 4-3 overtime win over Buffalo.
Streit has recorded 18 goals and 40 assists in 78 games this season, while Koivu has 16 goals and 40 assists in 77 contests.

Tribeca at a Glance
Tribeca is a neighborhood on the Southern part of Manhattan. Tribeca is short for Triangle Below Canal. Many office spaces in Tribeca have a view of the Hudson because there are few skyscrapers that block the views to the river. A view of the Hudson River is rare in NYC and would be great for office spaces.
One of the main attractions of this neighborhood is that it is very close to the Hudson River and the Hudson River Greenway. The Hudson River Greenway runs alongside the river and has great basketball, baseball and tennis facilities. Employees may take a break and decide to partake in physical activity. They would be able to enjoy a run or bike down up and down the Hudson River, or any of the other great facilities located within the Hudson River Greenway.
Additionally, Tribeca is the home to the Tribeca Film Festival. The Tribeca Film Festival is a film festival that is held every year to enable the international film community and public to experience all types of different films. The film festival makes Tribeca one of the premier locations for film culture in the world. It also helps celebrate New York City as being a major filmmaking center. The film festival is a large draw for tourists and film producers every year. Visit the film festival on a lunch break if your office is located in this area of Manhattan.

TORONTO – Standing just outside the Toronto Maple Leafs dressing room after yet another defeat in the shootout, James Reimer slammed his right hand against a door in an unusual show of frustration.
"It really sucks for a goalie when you lose," he said a few minutes later. Two pucks found their way behind Reimer in a 3-2 shootout defeat to the Bruins on Monday night.
The Leafs have yet to win in the shootout this season, falling for the fourth time at TD Garden on Monday night. While they emerged from a home and home set with Boston clutching three important points – they sit sixth in the East with 38 points – there's an argument to be made that all four were there for the taking – shootout notwithstanding.
The 25-year-old in goal shouldered the weight of the shootout decision again afterward, but it's increasingly difficult to assign blame entirely his way. The fact is, Tyler Bozak remains the only Leaf to actually score in the shootout this season; he is now 3-4 after another successful attempt on Monday night.
Collectively, Toronto shooters now rank third-worst in the shootout this year (3-21, 14.3 per cent), with the 10 candidates besides Bozak now empty in all 17 attempts.
"The shootout seems to be a big thorn in our side right now," Leafs coach Randy Carlyle acknowledged afterward. "We do work on it and we do provide video of what the opposition likes to do, what their goaltenders are like. But again, it's an individual thing, it's 1-on-1, player versus another player, all you can really do is provide the information that you think is important to the situation and that's what we try to do. And then we try to work on it with our own guys and our own goaltenders."
"I think I'm just saving them all for the game," Nazem Kadri, now empty in four attempts, managed to crack after the game. He was stopped by Tuukka Rask on his latest attempt Monday.
"I don't know exactly what it is. I feel like every single time I'm going down I have the goaltender beat, it's just a matter of elevating [the puck] a couple more inches or just being a little more patient, but I feel like I'm making the right moves."
Reimer meanwhile dropped to 3-8 lifetime in the shootout after yielding goals to Tyler Seguin and Patrice Bergeron. His career. 650 save percentage is actually middle of the pack among active goaltenders. However, the 25-year-old has posted a .619 mark on 21 shots this season which ranks 14th out of the 21 goaltenders who have faced at least 10 attempts.
"You know you take it for what it is," he said. "Obviously you want to win it and it sucks when you lose."
The Leafs have tried to maintain an even approach as it pertains to the shootout, but they can't help but be frustrated by the points they've failed to snatch as a result of it. In a playoff race that will only tighten in the coming weeks, those points are all too important to keep losing.
"We can't focus on the negative of losing the point tonight," Carlyle said. "We don't want to get too low on the shootouts or too high when we win them."
Five Points
1. Lost leads, missed opportunities
The Leafs held a lead of 2-0 which evaporated amid a valliant Boston pushback.
Joffrey Lupul (power-play) and Nik Kulemin scored six minutes apart in the middle frame to put the Leafs in front by a deceptively safe margin. It was less than two minutes after the Kulemin goal that Milan Lucic broke free of Cody Franson and Ryan Hamilton to score the Bruins' first goal, cutting the deficit quickly in half. The Leafs proceeded to come up dry with two critical opportunities on the man advantage, one with Dennis Seidenberg in the box towards the end of the second, another early in the third with Patrice Bergeron whistled off. "Our unit tonight just wasn't running on the same ropes I guess you could say," Franson explained of a unit that also includes Dion Phaneuf, Phil Kessel, James van Riemsdyk and Tyler Bozak, quick to note his own struggles with the puck firstly.
It was about eight minutes after the unpunished Bergeron infraction that the same Bruins pivot knotted the score at two, the resulting shootout frustration detailed above.
Grasping three of a possible four points against a team of the Bruins caliber is admirable, but lost leads and missed opportunities cannot be ignored. "We know the mistakes we made and we know what bit us," Franson said. "I think we have to be able to sharpen that up for Florida."
2. Kessel vs. Chara
A fact that speaks to the dominance of Zdeno Chara over his former teammate: Phil Kessel has yet to score an even-strength goal against in 22 games against his former team. The 25-year-old has managed only three career markers against the Bruins, all three coming on the man advantage.
Bruins coach Claude Julien is rightfully obsessive in launching his six-foot-nine goliath on Kessel, manically deploying him anytime Kessel is on the ice, home or away. "That's their mandate," Carlyle said. "They make no bones about it. Every time that [Kessel line is] on the ice, they'll change one D just to make sure [Chara's] out there … that's part of star players in the league having to play against the best players in the league."
3. JVR Cold spell
His Leafs career took off with a bang; 11 goals in the first 18 games this season. But since that point, James van Riemsdyk has cooled off in the goal-sniping department socring just three goals in the past 15 games and none in the past six, a season-long dry spell. "Try to stick with it," said van Riemsdyk prior to Monday's game, who also has just four assists since February 21st. "I think I've been doing some good things and some times you just don't get the puck luck. I think I'm continuing to go to the areas where you get the goals at, it's just a matter of maybe getting a bounce or having a puck sit there a couple inches closer and maybe you don't hit a pipe and it goes in and things look a little different." van Riemsdyk may not be far off as far as 'puck luck' is concerned. Through the opening two months, the 23-year-old was firing at an inflated 17 per cent clip, far above his three-year career average of 10 per cent. In the month of March, he has dipped to about 8 per cent, meaning some leveling out is likely if his game ramps up to the level it had been previously.
van Riemsdyk failed to land a shot against the Bruins on Monday and was benched for the final 10 minutes of the third period and all of overtime. "I think JVR has got some work to do in some areas," Carlyle said of his younger winger, who still logged 18-plus minutes. "He's been a great player for us but I think he's in a little bit of a dry spell for us right now. We need him to get his feet moving and start to create more."
4. Igniting Kulemin
One shining testament to Nazem Kadri this season has been his ability to make others better. From Matt Frattin to Clarke MacArthur, Kadri has helped improve the performance of every player he's played with. There is perhaps no better example of this than with Nik Kulemin. Kulemin has tallied a point in four of the five games in which he has played alongside Kadri, with three goals in that brief span. "He's a good player," Kulemin said of Kadri, who found him open for a breakaway goal against the Bruins. "He sees the rink very well and passes it at the right time."
The 26-year-old Kulemin added of his recent return to goal-scoring prowess (now with five this season), "I think I just started shooting more and I have more opportunities to shoot because Naz has a lot of attention on him."
5. Kadri on the draw
One element of Kadri's game that will continue to be tested as his responsibilities increase is his work on the draw. Squaring off against the league's top faceoff team on Monday, the 22-year-old finished with just four wins on 18 tries, including a 3-for-14 showing against Bergeron, the top faceoff man in the league this season (62%). "He's just a smart guy," Kadri said of Bergeron. "He's strong on his stick and even sometimes when you're looking just to tie up his stick and make it a foot-battle it seems like he's always winning those as well."

Is Environmentalism a Religion?
If you come across something with this question in the title, it's probably put out by anti-environmentalists and the answer is yes. Either yes, environmentalism is a false religion threatening the "true" religion, whatever that may be, or yes, it is "just" a religion, unfounded in science or fact. The last assertion — that environmentalism […]

A Different Approach to Holiday Giving

Rack 'em up: Rendition, Lions For Lambs, In The Valley Of Elah, Stop-Loss, Redacted… All highprofile Iraq war movies, all boxoffice stiffs.
What is it about the most contentious political event of the 21st Century that inspires such staunch multiplex-dodging? Seen enough on the small screen? Stories too stodgy? Too soon?
The Hurt Locker's relative success offers an answer. Most of the above have only one thing to say and it's been said many times before… War is bad. War is hell.
Here, Kathryn Bigelow dares to suggest that, for some, war isn't hell. She doesn't skimp on the staples (chaos, futility, cruelty) but also twangs a primal note last heard in The Thin Red Line – do we fight because we have to, because it's in our nature?
The story – written by journo Mark Boal from his embedded account – follows three EOD (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) technicians on the last month of their tour in 2004 Iraq.
Sergeant William James (Jeremy Renner) is bold to the point of reckless, working up close to deadly improvised devices and refusing to wear the standard-issue bomb-suit. His colleagues are the steely Sergeant JT Sanborn (Anthony Mackie) and volatile Specialist Owen Eldridge (Brian Geraghty).
James struts through the horror, fatalistic about potential fatality. But his attitude unsettles the others and when a local boy stirs James' protective instinct, he starts to unravel.
"Their world is unpredictable," says David Morse (Colonel Reed) in the brief Making Of. "There's a sense that anybody could go at any time…" Bigelow smartly ditches showy set-pieces and focuses on the defining quality of an EOD soldier's life: gnawing, tangible tension. By casting little-knowns, the director plays up to Morse's everyoneis- dispensable air – and reverses the rules with a couple of comically brief star cameos.
The Hurt Locker is pretty much the sister movie to David Simon's superb miniseries Generation Kill. Both are beautifully shot in smears of reportage-style digital video. Both play out with their own language, on their own terms and in their own world – where the viewer is cast as observer, not voyeur.
There's also a refreshingly apolitical, humanist agenda that shoots down the notion of Western nobility while careful not to present the insurgents as rightfully righteous. This only falters in a couple of scenes where Bigelow reheats a little Point Break topless-guy camaraderie.
So, it's taken a woman to skewer the man's world of modern warfare and now we wait to see if a Brit (Paul Greengrass) can lay bare the US-led invasion with his upcoming Green Zone. Bigelow has, artfully and eloquently, crafted a soldier's side of the story.
Here's hoping Greengrass can tackle the politics and do for Iraq what United 93 did for 9/11.

I should be so lucky … I was stumbling around the house in the dark at 3 a.m. the other morning, when I stepped on a Lincoln Log. I remember feeling an intense sense on relief. In my house, if you're going to step on one of my sons' toys in the middle of the […] [Read More]

Okay now that proms are over it's time to address the ridiculous cost! When I was in high school it was expensive to go to prom yes, but now it is bank busting! A survey found that the average teen plans to spend $1,139 on prom including dresses, transportation and dinner.
If you're a parent of a teenage girl and you've been shopping for prom dresses you've seen that the prices are insane! Some dresses are priced as high as $600! That's more than my mom paid for all my prom and homecoming dresses combined! The most expensive dress I ever wore was the one I got for homecoming court and that was just over $100. Either I'm a really good bargain hunter or prices have just gone up that much. I'm going to say it's a combination of both.
Right now prom dresses are on sale all over the web for 75 to 80% off so maybe it's a good time to shop for next year's dress and maybe you won't have to take out a loan to pay for it.
When you have a daughter on top of the dress you also have to budget for hair, nails, sometimes makeup, jewelry and shoes. Some girls even insist on tanning before the big event. If you have a son you're paying for the limo and dinner on top of a high priced tux rental.
I have been in my share of weddings and being a bridesmaid doesn't cost this much!
Do you think it's crazy to spend this much money on one night?
