Star Wars Snowflakes Are The Ultimate Christmas Decoration
You can never have too many Christmas decorations, and these Star Wars snowflakes can be the perfect addition to any home.
You can never have too many Christmas decorations, and these Star Wars snowflakes can be the perfect addition to any home.
Ugly Christmas sweaters have become a tradition by now and once Metallica, Slayer and Queens of the Stone Age released their very own Christmas sweaters, it seemed like many a band followed their example.
Apparently, cats don't like Christmas. Or maybe it's just Christmas trees. Either way somebody should be yelling timber.
Hey, stoners want to get into the Holiday spirit just like everybody else.
I don't have any lights up at my house right now, but now I want to. If my house can have freaking light saber battles with itself, I am in.
A generous mystery customer has helped make this holiday season special for several Wichita Falls families by paying off their layaways at a local Walmart.
'Tis the season for mistletoe!
Last week, we talked about how Walgreens had to pull Hanukkah paper off the shelves because the design on the paper contained swastikas.
Seriously? How does something like that happen?
Well, something similar has happened again.
Quick, which of these combos seems slightly off -- Santa and reindeer? Santa and Mrs. Claus? Santa and high-powered weapons?
Yes, this is a real thing and I am as shocked as you are.
Christmas would be pretty boring without Christmas music, and Steel Panther has just released a song you'll be singing all season long.
Recently we've talked about the best Non-Christmas Christmas movies, and asked you for your favorite Christmas movies. But in the spirit of Festivus, its time to air our grievances and talk about 10 Christmas movies that are overrated or just plain terrible.

Clementine Revives Classic Amarok
Zonker takes a look at Clementine, a full-featured media player for Linux that can manage your collection as well as play your tunes.
Although people say they want change, they don't really mean it. At least not when it means trading the tried and true for an unfamiliar design. Case in point: The Amarok developers worked long and hard to update and modernize the user interface of Amarok, only to find many users preferred the old school media player. The result? Clementine, a player "inspired by" Amarok 1.4 but updated to take advantage of the Qt4 toolkit.

i'm probably the only negative one here...but this product really and truly made me break out! I've given it a go at least 3 times (i only have half a bottle left) so i've really tried to give this product, which has flawless reviews, a try! I don't know what it is..i hope i can spot the ingredient so it''ll help me with my future purchases..i currently use it to clean my brushes to use it up...i won't buy it again.

I was really happy with this product. I don't use it to wash my face alone. I wash my face first with my regular cleanser then I apply a little of this just to make sure I get all the stuff that my cleanser might have missed. It says no rinse, but I still do it anyways just in case! I feel like this really, REALLY wipes my face clean. My skin feels so fresh and oil-free, and my pores seem refined. It also contains zinc and copper (I think), which actually helps to heal acne, and it does slightly reduce the severity of my breakouts. I think that if you use it as your main cleanser, it's like draining the whole bottle down the sink! I definitely recommend this as more of a toner, but with a quick rinse afterward. Just try it, and you'll see just how little you really need :) (Be careful if you have dry skin though, you may not want to do the whole "wash your face twice thing" as it may be irritating)

I heard about this product from a YouTube personality (pixiwoo) a few years ago and purchased it. I still have the same 500ml bottle I bought in 2009 and its 2011. Granted, I alternate makeup removers, but I love this product. It doesn't burn when it gets in my eyes, it removes all the makeup, I don't have to scrub the makeup off. I am not allergic to it. I just wish it was more readily available. I got it off ebay for $23.60 (with shipping).

i used it more like a face makeup remover. it can not removed my mascara (mac zoomlash) over all i do like it as a face makeup remover as it does removed my foundation very well (face feel clean and its gentle to my face) but not as a eye makeup remover . as after i used it to removed my eye makeup i still have lots of mascara on my lashes :( . Over all i am quite disappointed.

I think this is a really good product and almost 100% effective. However, I don't use it alone as a cleanser.
For me, I use it as a toner. I use a gentle foaming cleanser, then afterwards, I put a few drops on a cotton pad and cleanse my face one more time with this. Amazingly, the cotton pad always looks like it has absorbed some more dirt and oil which my other cleanser failed to remove. After this, I just pat my face dry.
The good points of this is that it doesn't dry your face and leave you with skin tightness like many other cleansers, so it can be used as a suitable toner. It's also effective in removing dirt.
The reason why I don't part with this is because this is the only thing that soothes my skin after it became weird and sensitive because of the Oil Cleansing Method (nightmare). If I don't use this, the bumps and stuff all return. Yet if I use it alone, it's not enough and my face still gets pimples.

This is my HG cleanser!! Love this stuff, it has saved my skin! I was loyal to Spectro for years and never even heard of Bioderma till randomly seeing a review on the homepage of MUA. I am soooooo glad I started using this stuff. My skin looks and feels amazinggggg! The overall texture is smoother and less oily. It got rid of all acne and bumps, and I rarely have a pimple anymore. If I do, they appear smaller and disappear in half the time and with no scarring. Mores are tighter and smaller too!! :) my skin did purge, but not as bad as I thought would happen. Since using this stuff I am done to using BP lotion 3 days a week instead of 7. This stuff truly does what it says. So refreshing to find something that actually works and doesn't make my skin worse.

Great for sensitive acne prone skin. This product contains zinc and soothing ingredients that reduce inflammation in acne prone skin.
PROS: (1) removes the majority of makeup- considering its gentle I don't expect it to remove all of it. (2) leaves skin feeling soft (3) reduces redness in skin and acne.
CONS: (1) does not prevent acne or lower oil production in skin. (2) contains perfume- not ideal for most people with sensitive skin! (3) not user friendly- it is formulated like a toner- which makes it difficult to apply to the skin. I would have preferred a gel texture- however this is merely personal preference. (4) Very expensive given the simple formulation- $35 CAD per 250mL bottle!
Overall, not a bad product. However there are much better on the market for my skin type.
Happy Shopping.

God I love this product!!!! I actually had a really nasty all-face breakout, and using creams and cleansers just seems to worsen it. So obviously I went to the dermatologist, and he recommended me this product and no cream. I've been using this product for 3 weeks to remove makeup and as a daily cleanser. It's great stuff, and it's refreshing too. I will definitely repurchase...... <3 :D

This is a great product for cleansing and freshening my face after I work out at the gym. While it seems to be meant for oily skin, I find it doesn't dry my skin out and handles the "post workout sweaties" really well. After I purchased this, the SA told me that they often have half price or buy one/get one offers on these Bioderma products so she's put me on the "notify" list for when these sales come up.
I think when the cooler weather hits, I will try the formulation for dry skin...this might be a bit too drying for winter, though I've found it so mild, that I doubt it.
*** I accidentally put this review under the Sensibio product heading.

I bought this based on the reviews here and had very high hopes. I got it for a great price here in Hong Kong (HK$100 for the 500ml bottle, on sale at Colormix).
I was really hoping that this would significantly improve the blackheads on my nose (I have loads of them) and my oily t-zone (I have combo skin). I also liked the idea that it combines makeup remover, toner and cleanser into one product.
I've been using this product for about 3 months now. I did not have as significant and fast results as some of the other reviewers here, which I was a bit disappointed with. Even though I have been using this product for 3 months, I still have a significant amount of blackheads, and they are still purging (the purging period is lasting a lot longer than I thought it would!) However, I would say that my blackheads have noticeably gotten better.
This is a very nice product in that it is refreshing, it is not fragrance-free but it is a very mild and fresh scent that is very lovely, it helps with oil-control while not making you feel dry or tight in the slightest.
I have been using this cleanser with the Bioderma Sebium Mat anti-shine cream gel in the daytime, which is also very good with oil-controlling where still providing hydration where you need it.
One thing about this cleanser is that if you have a lot of blackheads, there will be a lot of purging. Since the blackheads are rising out of my pores, this makes my skin very bumpy. I feel like you need a good exfoliating product (a gentle one, not a scrubby one) to really get smooth skin and help the purging along. I personally really like Dermalogica Microfoliant daily and also the Gentle Cream Exfoliant as a weekly mask.

What does it mean when a fictional hero takes a journey?. Shares a meal? Gets drenched in a sudden rain shower? Often, there is much more going on in a novel or poem than is readily visible on the surface—a symbol, maybe, that remains elusive, or an unexpected twist on a character—and there's that sneaking suspicion that the deeper meaning of a literary text keeps escaping you.
In this practical and amusing guide to literature, Thomas C. Foster shows how easy and gratifying it is to unlock those hidden truths, and to discover a world where a road leads to a quest; a shared meal may signify a communion; and rain, whether cleansing or destructive, is never just rain. Ranging from major themes to literary models, narrative devices, and form, How to Read Literature Like a Professor is the perfect companion for making your reading experience more enriching, satisfying, and fun.

I'm an 18 year old student from London, living at uni in Britain. Currently in the process of recovering from a 2-3year eating disorder basically cumulating in anorexia. I began to recover in June 2010. However due to exams, summer holidays and first term at ui, I have only just begun to actually try to recover with a dedicated private therapist as well as seeing Drs on the NHS (who have been decidedly useless thus far...)

Wanna add a subtitle to your own recordings to create your own movie? Or add a subtitle to a foreign movie for understanding the movie better? It's quite easy to do the subtitle task with iSkysoft Video Converter for Mac.
Best Tool to Add Subtitles to MP4 Videos on Mac OS X (El Capitan Included)
At the very beginning of the task, something you need to know: not all videos can have subtitle, i.e, if you have some FLV videos, you are unable to attach external subtitles to the video. Those proper video formats for subtitle attachment are MP4, AVI, MKV etc. But with iSkysoft Video Converter for Mac, the format limitation is nothing. By the way, if you are a Windows user, you can go to get the Windows version here.
people have downloaded it
User Gudie to Add Subtitles to MP4 on Mac with iSkysoft Video Converter
To add the source videos, you can drag & drop your files directly to the Mac app, or head to "File" menu and choose "Load Media File". Batch conversions are supported.
Note: If you have some videos in FLV, 3GP, AVCHD or other formats which don't support subtitle attaching, you can also use the Mac Video Converter to add subtitles to the video.
There is a subtitle box next to the thumbnail of the video on the video info bar, you can click it to open a dropdown menu and choose Load subtitle. You can add subtitles in srt, ass and ssa to the videos.
You can keep MP4 as your output format or choose other formats. The default output format set by the Mac app is iPhone MP4, if you wanna a change, open the format list by clicking the format icon on the video info bar and customize the output format. There are some optimized presets for popular devices and apps like iPhone 6S/6S Plus, iPad Pro, iPod, iMovie, HTC, Sony PSP and more.
Now hit on "Convert" at the right bottom of the main interface of the video converter, and the rest will be finished automatically.

Spain's 'indignant' activists filed a criminal complaint on June 14, 2012 against the former management of Bankia, whose partial nationalisation helped push Madrid to seek a massive EU bailout. Last month, Bankia revised its 2011 results from a net profit of 309 million euros ($387 million) to a loss of nearly three billion euros and asked the state for a bailout of 19 billion euros, the largest in Spanish history.

US retailers see only modest sales gains in May
By Leonie Barrie | 3 June 2011
Concerns over the rising cost of living weighed on US shoppers in May
After receiving a late Easter boost to sales last month, it was perhaps inevitable that US apparel retailers would see only modest sales gains in May, with many blaming cold weather, storms and flooding for dampening demand for spring and summer merchandise.
Others say concerns over the rising cost of living, including higher energy costs and climbing prices, combined with ongoing economic uncertainty, continues to weigh on consumers. Many are shopping cautiously as their household budgets come under increasing pressure and they have fewer discretionary funds to spend.
Mixed May sales were confirmed by the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC), which reported a 5.4% year-on-year same-store sales gain across retail chains in May. Excluding fuel, sales rose by 3.7% it said.
But within this, the weakest performer was apparel, with retailers here posting a sluggish 1% gain in May sales - well below the segment's year-to-date trend of 3.6%.
Michael McNamara, vice president of research and analysis for MasterCard Advisors SpendingPulse, which follows retail sales across all payment forms, points out that while apparel continued to show gains in May, the growth rates were hurt by tough comparisons with April.
"Because the late Easter holiday boosted April's year-over-year comparisons in some sectors, the May growth rates can look flattened by comparison, especially in apparel, luxury, and groceries where the growth rates were only about half what they were in April," he said.
Though noticeably smaller than April's 10.4% gain, according to SpendingPulse figures total US apparel sales in May recorded a 5.9% year-over-year increase, its 18th monthly rise in a row.
All of apparel's sub-sectors posted higher sales than a year ago. Most noticeably, family apparel was up 3.6%, its 16th positive out of the last 17 months. And at 8.5%, footwear weighed in with its 18th consecutive month of higher year-on-year growth.
Retailers including Target, Dillard's, JC Penney, Kohl's, Hot Topic and Wet Seal all missed expectations for May sales. And Gap saw a decline across all brands including its namesake, Banana Republic and Old Navy.
But luxury retailers Saks and Nordstrom, as well as teen chains The Buckle and Zumiez managed to beat forecasts. Macy's too had a stellar month, prompting it to lift its full-year forecast.
While gasoline prices have declined from their peak, they remain a cause for concern in the second half of the year, not only by reducing the number of shopping trips that are made but also taking any 'extra' money out of shoppers' purses. Likewise, the industry continues to brace itself for the impact of rising cotton, transport and labour costs on apparel prices.
That said, there are hopes that warmer, seasonal weather will help drive sales of summer merchandise in the next couple of months - with those stores offering products that are good value and on trend most likely to emerge as the winners.
The Memorial Day holiday may also push some spending into June, and the upcoming Father's Day may well act as a catalyst too.

in need of romantic middle for Romeo.
Hi berries :-)
It's me again.
I have Romeo Boone on my list but I don't like it anymore. So i'am in need of a new middle. I want the name to be romantic so it can much Romeo.
I have thought of
Romeo Sebastian
Romeo Noble
Romeo Amos too repetitive sounds.
But nothing feels right.
So I cant wait to hear your amazing ideas.
Iam also open to two middle names if the combo is fabulous.
Thanks in advance :-)"I am a forest, and a night of dark trees: but he who is not afraid of my darkness, will find banks full of roses under my cypresses."

Terracotta or tiled floors and beamed ceilings set the tone for an extremely comfortable residence equipped with all the modern amenities, which make Vaggio Savernano one of our most welcoming villas. The large, air-conditioned rooms are furnished in a tasteful blend of Italian and English antiques, while ping-pong and billiards tables provide rainy-day diversions. A beautifully maintained garden of lawns, rock gardens and terraces surrounds the house and ensures complete privacy. Views of the Val d'Arno are best from the large swimming pool and pool house, where loungers and umbrellas beckon you to relax. A spacious loggia with a barbeque provides an ideal spot for alfresco dining.
Clients reviews
My wife and I both turned 70, and we spent a week with our children and their families. We could not have picked a better place than Vaggio Savernano we liked everything. Fantastic house with many things to do like, swimming pool, table tennis, pool table, badminton. And the ordered food was excellent.
Ulf Rosengren
Perfect for a big family gathering, with the lovely pool, table tennis and billiards, so lots to do, and beautiful different outside areas for relaxing. Genni and Roberto, the cooks were wonderful and went beyond the call of duty and great fun with the children. Everyone was so kind to me as I arrived on crutches having had an operation, and just thank you all, for helping last minute with taxis, cooks etc, what could have been a disaster of a holiday was made by all your Help so Thank you.

I booked Vaggio Savernano to celebrate my 45th birthday and also my friends 30th anniversary. Upon arrival, I literally got lost in the villa as it is so large. We had 4 couples and 6 year old twins and everyone felt as though they had their own villa. We could have had 4-6 more people very comfortably. The house is amazing. The grounds, the decor, the pool and the upkeep are incredible--you will not want to leave. The caretaker Davide lives next door--was easily available but not intrusive. Relaxing on the loggia in the morning with a cappuccino and the beautiful sounds and smells of Tuscany will stay with me forever, as well as the amazing meals we had prepared for us by the cook. We did short trips from the property to Florence (40 min train ride), Cortona (1 1/2 hour drive) and Lucca (1 1/2 hour drive) and it always felt like coming home when we would arrive in the afternoon for a swim and dinner. Several people went cycling from the property and exclaimed that it was some of the best cycling they had ever done, and these are hard-core cycle fans! Another friend is a bird-watcher and spent her afternoons on the land around the property in awe of the number and diversity of birds seen. All in all it was a trip of a life time, and I am already making plans to return at 50!

We absolutely loved our stay at the villa. At one point, we had 12 people there and the villa easily handled that many people. We were all able to spread out and relax. The pool saved us in the hot and humid days. Very clean. We had a fabulous time we had at the villa! had dinner cooked for us cooked for us a couple of nights and was wonderful.. Thank you.
James Vumback
The villa was absolutely amazing !!!! The pictures do not do it justice. We planned a girls trip to Italy and our first leg was Tuscany. There were 9 of us and the villa and it was large enough and made us feel so at home. We were welcomed at the villa by Barbara, Simon, Frances and Davide. They took care of us the minute we arrived. We had prepared the most wonderful 4 course dinner the night we arrived. The wine and food were impeccable. Davide made sure the villa was ready when we returned from our days of visiting many of the towns around Tuscany. We were very impressed with the exceptional level of service from the entire staff at Tuscany Now. We cannot thank you enough for making our stay a trip of a lifetime. I would highly recommend staying at this villa, and we all look forward to returning. !!! I would also like to thank all of the others at Tuscany Now that helped plan our stay. Setting up the additional services that we requested prior to our stay also made this trip one to never forget. Many thanks to all !!! Singed; The girls from South Jersey..USA.

We booked a meal one evening with Genni and Roberto. We all loved it. There was plenty to eat, nicely cooked and very well served. It was lovely not to have to wash up and put things away!

The villa was beautiful - we loved the pool. Barbara was away but Davide looked after us, the girls loved seeing the chickens and stroking the dogs. Genni and Roberto were brilliant - fantastic food and very sweet with the children. They also helped us on the first night when we had no power in the annex and we couldn't get hold of Davide.
Julie Walsh
(United Kingdom)
The villa was stunning and beautifully located without being overlooked or affected by noise of neighbours. It was well stocked and Davide, the caretaker was always helpful and on hand should we need anything. We didn't use the cook service however we arrived very late on the first night and the cook had taken it upon herself to prepare something for us knowing we'll be tired and hungry. It was beautifully presented and tasty and more to the point, her generous heart and hospitality was a really special way to start the week.

I personally want to let you know that our stay at Vaggio Savernano was truly exceptional!!! To be honest, when you see pictures of places, sometimes they look much better than the real thing. Your photos were true and accurate! And everyone that stayed there can not stop talking about how wonderful the villa is and much fun they had! There was enough space for everyone to enjoy! The kids loved the pool and the ping pong ! We were also extremely impressed with the "chefs" Genni and Roberto who came and prepared our dinners. What a super special treat!! We will definitely be back!!
Joy Tong
I am delighted to say this was a great location to celebrate my 50th birthday with a group of international friends. The local staff looked after us well keeping the house and grounds perfect.

Herkese Merhaba... (That means Hi everybody in Turkish)... We were two families together with four children in the house. It was very comfortable and large. We liked kitchen and it had all that we needed. The children didn't want to go out, they wanted to stay and play games together :) Even though we had our holiday in October, the weather was mostly very nice. We observed small deer sometimes. Walking around was very nice in the nature. Thanks a lot to the Tuscany Now team.
Tamer Kilicaslan
Our group of 10 thoroughly enjoyed their stay. The maid services were excellent. The cooks were amazing, friendly and talented. The villa staff went the extra mile to provide an exceptional service. Thank you. We were all very happy.
Kathleen Porter

Vaggio Savernano is perfection - beautiful setting, spacious rooms, excellent service. Everyone made us feel so welcome - the caretaker, the cooks Genni and Roberto and the housekeeper. The services and attention to detail provided by Tuscany Now are of the highest level. Grazie mille!
Jayne Marcial
I wanted to thank you for all your help in preparing for our stay in Tuscany. Our week at Vaggio Savernano was perfect - the accommodations were wonderful, the food was delicious and the weather was ideal! Everything far exceeded our expectations.
Jayne Marcial
Sublime, Excellent value. We were very pleased with everything and will not hesitate to contact Tuscany Now if we return one day to Italy.
Andrew Higgins
The house was everything and more and far surpassed all our expectations. I have to say I didn't think our holiday could have been as good as it was. But it was wonderful, it made for a perfect two weeks. Our time both in the villa and Tuscany was wonderful. Everything made it feel like home, it was in the most stunning location. The local people were wonderful too. As family we couldn't asked for a better experience of Italy.
Andrew Hall
Spacious house which is great for families sharing, fabulous safely gated pool area which worked well for small children.
Sarah Avery
(United Kingdom)
The accommodations, privacy, location and services provided by the staff made it both a memorable and magical experience for all of us. Roberto and Genni were charming, entertaining and they provided us with two fantastic meals. I would highly recommend the service and experience they provide.
Brian Zaffino
Vaggio Savernano villa was charming , staff so very friendly , we received a warm welcome (thank you Barbara), pool was great, and a birthday dinner for 18 cooked by Roberto and Genni was the high light of our trip, everyone had a great time!
Philip Buchanan
We loved the outside seating areas the pool and the gardens. The kitchen and range of equipment in it was extremely good. The cooks Roberto and Genni were excellent and so entertaining the food they provided was delicious and plentiful. The service they provide is excellent value.
Paul Evans
(United Kingdom)
It was unanimous; we all had the most AMAZING time at Vaggio Savernano. From the moment of our arrival, seeing the villa and property for the first time...AMAZING! The arrival meal prepared by Genni & Roberto...AMAZING! The Villa itself and the property were meticulous; the countryside, breathtaking! We were 7 couples, who awoke every morning with smiles on our faces, "pinching" ourselves and saying, "we ARE really here & everything IS AMAZING! Barbara, a big thank-you to you and all your staff for your hospitality!
Nick Bianchi
Loved the feeling and ambiance of the villa - beautiful, but also very "liveable" and comfortable for a large family group - grounds and pool were also terrific - and the staff was WONDERFUL!
Christine Spiro
We had a wonderful time at Vaggio Savernano. My three cousins and our respective spouses and a total of six small children fit very comfortably in your country house. Vaggio set up perfectly - we each felt we had our own sleeping zones yet it was a great communal experience! The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed and more, you took great care to equip the home to meet the needs of four infants, and the chef you arranged (and her family) made exceptional four course meals for us every night. At 30-40 Euros per person, it was for us a great value and a treat to have such fantastic meals at the end of days of travel and fun but tiring child care. The home furnishings satisfied several picky New Yorkers, and the pool, with ping pong etc., was a great amenity. Also, as a footnote, your neighbours are fantastic - I was changing a flat tire just on the main road and the farm owner across the street brought my wife a bag of cherries to help pass the time and offered to help with the car. A very kind gesture!
Daniel Conn
Gorgeous pool and grounds. Great outdoor spaces for eating/lounging. Comfortable home, with plentiful books and artwork making it seem more like one's own home than a rental. All bedrooms were nice, but upper bedroom in old barn was particularly spacious and nicely appointed. Shopping service was done perfectly. We loved the cooks (Roberto and Jenny)--they are wonderful, fun people and interacted so warmly with every member of our family, old and young. The food was fresh, beautifully prepared and plentiful.
A Gold
Vaggio Savernano was the perfect villa for our 12 person family get together...the outdoor dining area, kitchen, and the pool area could not have been better. Jenny and Roberto prepared 7 fabulous dinners for 10 of us. Not only was the food excellent, but we all loved them! My son had great fun serving as #1 assistant chef..
Lois Fingerhut
The villa is spacious and well-appointed. The property and grounds are beautiful, making it a pleasure to spend time there! We booked the cooks, Jenny and Roberto, for 2 nights during our stay, and we were absolutely delighted with the meals they served. Overall, Tuscany Now provided us with terrific service! We were able to book a perfect villa for our "once in a lifetime" vacation.
Dale Geldart
The setting and location with access to the A-1 were excellent. The house was spacious and clean and the grounds were well kept. Bathrooms recently renovated and comfortable

Focal Spirit One headphones
Sound glorious, bass when you need it, well-balanced, removable cable
Grip your head quite right, hard to adjust
The rush to sell you headphones pushes on unabated. The thinking seems to be: for the time being people are prepared to spend £200 on headphones, it won't last forever, so let's make some money. And when there's demand, you'd be crazy not to try to satisfy it.
Focal is an audio specialist, although headphones are not the primary focus of what it has done until now. Mostly it sells high-end speakers to home cinema enthusiasts, or studio monitors to recording studios. So while headphones might be new for the company, high-end audio most certainly is not. So has the company cracked it with these, are they worthy of your attention over the dozens of other pairs of over-the-ear cans on the market?
White, or even black
We're testing the white headphones, which were introduced before Christmas, but there's also a black set which are the same and have been about for a bit longer. The white headphones are, dare we say it, a shot at the fashion-conscious headphone user. We don't want to say Beats too much in this review, but let's be honest, there's a lot to be said for that firm's love of white headphones.
READ: Beats Pro review
The Spirits are quite nicely put together. There's a lot of plastic used here, but it's highly polished and it looks good. We love the red inlay on the inside of the headphones too. There's a soft band at the top which keeps them nice and comfortable on your head. The earpads themselves are well-cushioned too, and they compress to fit your head nicely too.
One thing we did notice was that the grip of the headphones against your head is pretty substantial. This keeps the headphones in place when you're listening to music, and doing a Will Smith-style head roll. That's good, but it can make wearing them for a long time quite tiring. We aren't crazy about the adjustment band, it does the job, but we seemed to struggle a lot with it. Most of the time, this is simple to adjust on headphones, but on the Spirit Ones it just seemed harder to find that sweet spot.
The Spirit Ones fold up too, so you get a compact arrangement that fits more easily in to a bag. We like the fact - as always - that the audio cable is removable too. This is easily the part of headphones most likely to fail, so when it can be replaced it means no tedious argument about warranties: just buy a new cable for a few quid.
As with most headphones, there's a soft case included - and a hard one too, for that matter. The old airline adapter is thrown in, as a 3.5mm to 6.5mm "embiginator" - that's a real word, honest.
More exciting though, is the inclusion of the remote control cable. This is like the standard cord, but contains a microphone and controls for the usual functions. This will work on an iPhone for sure, and some of the features will also work on other devices. We usually find that the microphone is fine on phones - and laptops for that matter - but the volume control is usually limited to Apple devices. Still, you get a choice, so you can pick the one that suits your needs best.
Sound quality
First of all that terrific noise isolation really helps with the quality. Blocking out as much external sound as possible means you get to hear your music without any alteration. That's a really important thing, and scores over noise cancellation, because it does not introduce noise into the audio.
Music quality is superb too. There's quite a flat sound here, with the headphones having no easily detectable bias toward either the low, or the high end. If anything, they seem to like the mid-range, but it's nothing too devastating and the overall quality is solid and the range seems impressive.
One of the first tests we give a pair of headphones now is to play a track we know is right on the edge of acceptable when it comes to the high end. For whatever reason, there are some tracks that on some headphones just sound a mess. The Focals, however, manage it well. There's still some obvious shimmering, but that comes down to the source material.
TV and movies too, sound pretty terrific. When it comes to bass, they hide their light under a bushel to some extent, because they're quite conservative. But give them some bass from an action film and they hold up well. This is all good, because no one wants their headphones inventing bass, but everyone does want a faithful reproduction of what the musician or director intended.
We really like the Focal Spirit headphones, they have a sound that is very appealing. If we had to be concise, we'd say they sound "just right". There's no time when we felt one bit of the sound had too much of any one component, or not enough of any part of the frequency range.
In terms of comfort, they lose a tiny bit because they aren't all that easy to adjust, clamp quite hard and have cups that are fractionally too small for our ears. None of these things is a major issue, but it might make listening for extended periods a bit more bothersome.
Overall though, we can't really fault the Focal Spirit Ones. The noise isolation is super, the sound is great and they really look great - although we'd buy in black. The only issue is that they're not as comfortable as some to wear, but if you're out and about, you'll be pleased to have them clamp your head.

With the hirings of Ernie Rodriguez and Billy Page to take over West Las Vegas boys' basketball and Robertson girls' basketball, respectively, the two local school districts went on similar tracks — opting for out-of-towners who bring years of head coaching experience to the Meadow City.
Rodriguez, who sat out of coaching last year, most recently was the head coach of boys' basketball and football at Santa Fe Indian School. He takes over for Morgan Montaño, who was not rehired after three years in charge of the Dons.
The following are scores reported to the Optic by local Little Leagues as of press time.

No license, stamps or special permits are needed, although bag limits and all other fishing rules apply.

Apparently I didn't miss anything in the way of global events recently. Our mountains are still here, dry as they are. If the end of the world happened, nobody noticed it around here.
Sadly, it is so dry very few flowers are blooming, so the resident hummingbirds have hit the feeders hard. There is almost no water running in our creeks, and the blue herons quickly cleaned out any trout that still had a small pool to swim in.
While state government and school districts are having to tighten their belts, the city of Las Vegas anticipates that it will actually have more money to spend during the fiscal year that begins July 1 compared to its current year budget.
And the increased budget will mean more funding for city police and code enforcement, City Manager Timothy Dodge said.
A preliminary budget plan approved by the governing body last week anticipates general fund revenues at $11 million, $495,000 more than the current year's budget.

Nice Avatar and Sig FMA rocks :D
I have to admit judging from the fact that you created a thread I expected a bit more. But being the top 10 from a list of 17 isn't quite that impressive . . .
Thanks for the welcome! I love your FMA avatar pic! LOL I know I will have tons of fun here.....such a guilty pleasure.
you know...its been about a year exactly since we started talking, doesnt time go fast? funnily enough, ive completely forgotten about the 4th (last) film, i was going to get it but...*chases after butterfly due to low attention span* but personally, the 2nd film is my favourite but i didnt really like bender's game that much.
So how have u been recently? ive actually been quite good recently except *cries* exams...also, got back from the MCM expo this weekend, ahhhh...soo much fun, i was cosplaying as mokona from tsubasa, hehe...fangirls loved me, and i even fell asleep in the middle of the convention and well...people were taking pics of me while i was asleep (quote: awwww...look, that mokona is asleep, i wanna take a pic, sooo cute!) XD
hey...about One Piece.
hmmm, it is long and winding i guess - but unlike other long programs like Naruto or Bleach which seem to drag on and be abit ...sucky, One Piece just keeps getting better and better all the time. On the surface a story about a young pirate seems lame, but the manga arcs are always amazing, specially as it goes on and the animation gets even better to match the plot
tis epic!

i hate when this dude raps...
This is so groundbreaking... (sarcasm)
WOW...one of the worst, well...ok, Ok, OK...I can't knock Chris Brown every rapper thinks they can or atleast, tries to to sing and now, I wreckon every R&B artist wants to rap now n' days...what can you do? And soOooo, I'm not gonna say it's W-A-C-K because he does have something to say it's just he doesn't sound good saying-it! Drake & 2 Chainz can cross-over but Chris Brown & Trey Songz? [Back to the drawing board, take rap vocal lessons, and/or quit]
fuck yall, this songs dope
Rap is failing because you fools praise the whack rappers. But when someone has content, its a problem! #thenewgenerationdoesntknowshitaboutmusic!
fuckin wack can't wait the day someone will rock his fuckin jaw
I can't wait until the day this fag gets his ass beat the fuck down and is caught on video and photos. This fuck talks way too much shit for being a woman beater. his music sucks balls & he's just another bipolar fag. no vote cuz 1 star is 1 too many
You know rap is trash becuase a real rapper would have put out a diss track to calm this wack dude way down....
Haha real talk
This further extends ignorance. No Stars.
This is 4/5 this is sick (open Mind) Maybe he sucks to you guys but he made it far and hes paid(swag too LOl) (all i have to say!!;p
This is whack. Palmer County has better rappers.
chris brown is such a beast! most talent singer turned rapper
"Patty cake, patty cake?" Los, come shut this dude down for trying to sound like you (and horribly failing).
this is some faggot shit if you like this song are a piece of shit
somone please force this dude back in his god damn lane go back to singing and dance like an idiot about girls


text: Hello, attached the txt-file: The (external USB) Seagate Portable Expansion ST9640322AS apparently is not in your database. Also, there is a problem running the long offline test on it: It keeps aborting it after finishing about 10 per cent of the disk, and reports it as "manually aborted", even though I did not do anything (shown in the txt-file). Therefore, I have never been able to run a long test. Short tests work, though. Thank you! Greetings, Philipp
