Sorry to put a damper on these rave reviews but I was a bit let down. Maybe my hopes were lifted a bit too high. A Sephora rep may have sold me too dark a shade for my pale skin too but I still find it a bit chalky. I use shiny sunscreen and mineral make up and then a v small bit of Nars to cover up the shine. I know I'm layering powder over powder but it does create a bit of an old lady matte cakey finish if I'm not ultra light handed which I'm used to with mineral make up. It's quite good value for money as it will last for ages but as others have described, it's a bit messy. I tried it with foundation only once and was still a bit flour-y. Maybe I'll mix it with something more translucent like Prescriptives shimmer powder (can't recall name) to give an illusion of transparency.

SPARKLY!!!!! I never had so many sparkles on my face after I put this on. It's a good powder, but it'll make you look like you have glitter all over your face. Maybe I'll keep it and dust it on my shoulders, etc. on a night out.

I just bought this 2 weeks ago. It's great for setting up my MAC's Face and Body foundation. The combination is amazing. It doesnt have much coverage, when I wear it alone it doesnt do anyting but keeping me matte. For my NC35 skin Beach is a great color. I know it seems expensive but for the amount you get (45grams) its so much cheaper than many other drug store or high end powders. I keep some in my refillable powder brush (Boots No7 Perfect Litght Portable Powder) for just getting rid of the oil during the day. Keeps me nice and matte. I also use it for setting my beloved Estee Lauder Double Wear Light SPF10, looks amazing all day, maybe sweep some powder once and i'm good to go. It doesnt cake on no matter how much you put. It's really fine milled and it goes on really smooth. Be sure to keep the cardboard mesh. It'll save you product because you dont have to do the brush tapping after you get the product since the mesh makes the powder all smooth on the brush and ready to apply. So keep both the plastic sifter and the mesh! I'm not in love with the bulkiness of the container but hey, if that means i'm getting so much product that will last me forever I dont have a problem cuz like i said i carry some in the portable refillable powder brush that I have. I'd definitely repurchase. There IS no other powder out there for me. I've tried them all.

Over the past few years, I have tried several brands of loose powder including Clinique, Bobbi Brown, Chanel and MAC. Out of those, MAC was the standout, but I thought why not keep searching for an even better powder? After reading the great reviews here, I ordered this one in Eden. My search for the perfect loose powder is finally over - this is amazing! The high quality of NARS has shown itself again in this powder.
I am around NC20-25, and Eden is a perfect yellow-based shade. The texture is fantastic - fine, silky smooth and very soft, and sets my foundation perfectly. It minimises the look of my open pores, and just evens out my complexion so nicely - something I found that the other brands didn't do. Also, with MAC, I found it left this powdery residue/layer on top of my skin, and I could easily tell I was wearing powder. But NARS doesn't have this problem - it looks very natural. My foundation application alone just never looks smooth and even, and this just fixes that. It also does keep my foundation in place for a bit longer, but as I have quite oily skin, I still need to blot once over a few hours.
But I will definitely be sticking to this - I wish I had found it sooner! Love it!

I've been using this powder for more than 6 years and I recently decided to switch to other powders and let me tell you that it does not compare to the coverage and the look like I had with Nars loose powder in desert. It is the best powder ever!!! I do not need to use any type of liquid foundation nor do I need to use any type of concealer. It has covered my scars with no problem and also makes my pores appear smaller.

For a full-fledged makeup addict I've been surprisingly cheap and unimaginative when it comes to loose setting powders. Having used the same Clinique blended face powder for the last 5 or so years of my life I decided it was time for an upgrade. First thing I do is peruse the top picks here at MUA. I like most things NARS and have put quite a bit of dough into Francois' pocket over the last few years, and when I saw words like "airbrushed" and "flawless" in these reviews I was more than sold. Picked up Eden, which is a good match for my fair skin w/ yellow undertones. Must be a popular shade b/c Macy's and Sephora were both OOS and I had to brave the frightening SAs at Neimen Marcus for this. Still trying to decide if it was worth it. This stuff is quite nice, but airbrushed I am not. Perhaps I am beyond the powers of this humble powder. NARS, you have met your match. I'm not an oily person--I actually have dry to combo skin going on but no matter how much I try to surpress it, my forehead retains a certain "glow" that I don't find desireable. Other reviewers have attested to the oil controlling properties of this powder, but those aren't working on me either. I still have to blot several times a day. The powder is superbly finely milled. Sure, the packaging could use a bit of work--the design is very old-school. I don't mind it right now but will probably feel differently when it comes to traveling with it. All in all, this stuff is quality, and very nice, but it's not working the miracles I insanely thought it had the potential to. My life has not changed dramatically for the better since purchasing this. It's just a translucent powder, and an expensive one at that. I do like this, but when it's all gone, I will probably be on the prowl for the next best thing. Retails for $34 for 1.5oz

I have this powder in Flesh. The color is perfect for my skin (medium fair with reddish undertones), and it does give a beautiful, translucent effect. But I just can't get past the messy packaging. I have yet to find a way of using this product without spilling the powder all over the place, and the container is so bulky that I can't possibly travel with it. Even when I put it in a smaller container, it's still too messy. For the price, NARS should engineer a better system that takes care of these problems. I will likely not repurchase, but will enjoy (and clean up regularly) while I have it.
Edited to add: I bumped my review up from 3 stars to 4, since I've finally figured out how to keep the powder from spilling everywhere. You have to keep the mesh screen in the powder box and use the powder puff that comes with it. I'm much happier now, but the powder box itself is still way too bulky for travel.

Just bought it based on the reviews here and for the price i paid (48$ Canadian) im truly hoping for a miracle. I have the ocasional blemishes and some acne scars but veryyy slight so im hoping i can use this powder without and liquid foundation b/c summer is coming and the weather will only break me out im sure. But i read the ingredients and it ssays Talc as the first one (meaning the most ingredient) and then somewhere it said Corn Startch.. wtf am i putting on my face :S ill update for sure. let you kno if its really worth it. EDIT:
ya.. no. this is def. not what is seems to be for me. no oil control, and not airbrushed. =)

HG! HG! HG!!!!!! Wow, this is product has totally changed the way my makeup looks. It is the perfect loose powder to set my foundation. It does not provide that much coverage, it's pretty sheer, but boy does it blend away the appearance of fine lines, pores and little blemishes. It makes my skin look like silk, and blends just like it too (I use my MAC 187). I can put on layer after layer of this stuff and it never looks caked on or powdery. It's the priciest I've ever paid for a loose powder, but it's worth every penny, imo... the container will last a looong time. I got this is Flesh, I have slight beige-yellow undertones and at first thought this would be too pinky for an NC25 like myself, but it's perfect... I tried the next shade which is Eden and it was way too dark and yellow for me. Go get this powder!

How should I put this? I absolutely LOVE this powder. The powder is really finely milled and is matte, but not fake. It sets my makeup, does not dry out my dry cheeks and keeps the shine from my nose. It may seem pricey at first (I was contemplating using Everyday Minerals Foundation as a loose powder), but after comparing the price per gram, NARS is a lot cheaper! Also, I understand how people might think the packaging for this stuff is messy, but I've found a way to make it really neat! In the inside, there is an indent (see pic), so that is how the loose powder gets everywhere. It is also really stupid of NARS to make a puff that does not even fit inside the case! So what I did was I took the puff from my previous powder and just stuck it in the NARS case! At first, I thought the puff would make it so that the lid would not close properly, but I was wrong! Even though the puff was thicker than the indent in the container, I was able to put on the lid with surprising ease! So now, I get no mess! However, there is one thing that I found odd when I first bought this. When I opened it for the first time, inside was a net that was supported with a cardboard frame in addition to the regular plastic sifter with holes. I did not know what to do with the net, but I did not want to throw it away, so I just stuck it inside with the powder where it would not bother me but I still would not have to throw it away. As for the color, Beach is perfect for me. It is really yellow so it really blends into my Asian skin and it looks really natural. I think this might just be HG!

Bottom Dollar Food store in our area and armed with a gift card, Jude and I set out to find some bargains, specifically for Soren's upcoming birthday party.
Bottom Dollar Food offers.
There's actually a walk in refrigerator room, stocked with produce, much of which is grown in the US. That is something that I tend to look for when shopping for fruits and veggies, particularly in bargain stores where much of the items are from overseas.
While I wouldn't do all of my grocery shopping at Bottom Dollar Food, since they don't carry a lot of organic foods or have the variety of products one might be used to at the standard grocery stores, they do have some great deals. I'm sure you'd find at least something you'd normally buy at a discounted price.
Check the Bottom Dollar Food website to see if you have one of these money-saving stores in your area. Definitely worth the trip!
Follow Bottom Dollar Food on Twitter and Facebook for deal updates.

One of these stores just opened in my neck of the woods as well...I haven't shopped there yet, but I do plan to go and check it out! I have heard there are some great deals! I have Aldi practically in my back yard, so I tend to go there a lot and save tons as well. I like that price of .15 for the cabbage! awesome prices~!ReplyDelete
How neat! I've never heard of Dollar Store grocery stores-I don't think we have any where I'm at.ReplyDelete
I'll have to keep an eye out for one to come in {hopefully} :)

The movie "Live From Baghdad" was on one of my HBOs the other night; I came in midstream, as a motley, intrepid band of CNN-ers (played by Michael Keaton and Lili Tayor and an alt-rock-looking Helena Bonham Carter) were deciding whether to stay in Baghdad for the first bombing campaign of the Gulf War.
They did, of course, and got the live feed when no one else did, minting CNN as an upstart major news source. The denouement of "Live From Baghdad" is thrilling, bombs blowing out the window of the Al Rashid Hotel, the Peter Arnett character, in his exhilaration, like Slim Pickens riding shotgun on that bomb in "Dr. Strangelove."
A decade and a half later, CNN Special Investigations Unit aired an hourlong special on Shiite death squads last weekend that wasn't without merit but also employed the cheesy sound effects of a true crime re-enactment.
CNN is no longer Helena Bonham Carter scrappy; like everyone else, it's trying every which way it can to info-tain you. Over on MSNBC, the documentary "War Zone Diary" is airing at 10 p.m. Wednesday night as part of due-diligence week in broadcast news, occasioned by the Iraq War's anniversary. NBC Baghdad veteran Richard Engel asks a soldier about the current "love the troops, hate the war" paradox back home.
"Does that argument work with you guys?" Engel asks.
"No," says the solider, more than a little bitterly. "If you're gonna support us, support us all the way, support the war. If not, just go on with your lives back home and we'll take care of you here."
The soldier's wearing full battle regalia, on some iffy-looking patrol, and Engel's in a flak jacket and helmet. "War Zone Diary" is a bit like a blog but not enough to be truly intimate or deeply revealing. In turning the camera on himself, Engel gives us a glimpse of his digs at the Palestine Hotel (before insurgents blew it up, forcing the NBC bureau to move) and the canned luncheon meat product he hopes not to have to eat; we also learn that his marriage fell apart and how a trusted Iraqi staffer attempted to extort money by staging a bogus kidnapping.
My God, what's a guy gotta endure to get an hour of prime time from his own news division? (See: ABC News' Bob Woodruff.) NBC punted Engel's "War Zone Diary" over to its sister outlet MSNBC, while "Dateline NBC" is this week featuring a hidden-camera investigation of e-mail fraud and a "twisted teen love triangle."
Maybe Engel should have staged a little game of NBC's popular "To Catch a Predator" in Anbar Province. Though the entertainment division did book him tonight on Leno. In a different "Live From Baghdad," Engel might have become a TV star; whatever else his admirable qualities (bravery, perseverance, street smarts), he's a good-looking face in a war zone, with lush, buoyant hair (can I confess to wondering how he keeps it so malleable?) that belies the fact he's living in a dusty, wrecked, post-apocalyptic desert place.
In compressing Engel's four years in Iraq into bite-sized morsels, "War Zone Diary" reminds you how broadcast news, slavish to its own metabolism, packages the war more than covers it. Some of this, certainly, is a logistics issue — journalists in Iraq are part of the battlefield and/or subject to bad-guy kidnappings, preventing freedom of movement, their Iraqi staffers risking their lives in places journalists can't easily tread.
But this week of war-related programming makes it crystal clear: TV news, faced with its own flagging ability to be vital to our lives, has lost whatever authority remained after coverage of "Shock and Awe" and "Mission Accomplished" and "Operation Iraqi Freedom."
It's worrisome that what we are seeing still appears to contain such a disconnect. "I find the war in Iraq much more frightening to watch on television when I'm on leave outside Iraq than I find it when I'm there," New York Times Baghdad bureau chief John Burns said on C-Span last month.
Burns attributed this both to the hyper-focused nature of being in the middle of it all and because war correspondents are by nature adventurous souls. In "War Zone Diary," some of what Engel describes seeing is past our capacity to empathize (i.e. ravenous dogs eating dead bodies), but networks also blow past daily opportunities to bring the war home in other ways.
PBS' "The NewsHour With Jim Lehrer," for instance, does an "honor roll" of U.S. troops killed in Iraq and Afghanistan that essentially amounts to an ongoing personification of what is otherwise presented as a number in a crawl. Occasionally, and on an ongoing basis, "The NewsHour" ends in total silence as the faces, names, ranks and ages of dead service people appear onscreen.
ABC's "This Week With George Stephanopoulos" does something similar.
"People realize that when somebody dies in our name, they have earned the right to fiveseconds on public broadcasting with their face and a smallmemorial to them," Lehrertold radio host Don Imus recently.
Not that the networks don't still try to tell us what's happening — sandwiching in four or six or two minutes of reportage on the day's violence that have no time to get at the complexities of a sectarian conflict or atmospheric nuance, the stuff that makes for great war reporting.
Or great documentary. A lot of these, in fact, are making it onto TV. "Iraq in Fragments," nominated this year for an Academy Award and premiering at 7 tonight on Cinemax, is storytelling carved into three parts that mirror the country's geographical and religious divides.
"Iraq in Fragments" is experiential and unmitigated, told in the voices of the subjects themselves. Director James Longley follows 11-year-old Mohammed, a fatherless boy working for an auto mechanic in Baghdad, goes inside the political groundswell of radical Shiite cleric Muqtada Al Sadr's followers, and profiles the relatively pastoral way of life for two Kurdish boys and an elderly farmer in the north.
In "Iraq in Fragments," shots being fired and helicopters buzzing over Baghdad are theambient, troubling sounds of daily life, and Mohammed constantly looks up to see what's overhead.

Meijer Offers Kids a Chance at Co-Starring Role in New Commercial
Photo contest will pair iconic penny horse with retailer's youngest shoppers
Jan. 29, 2014
Contact: Christina Fecher, 616-735-7968, firstname.lastname@example.com
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Meijer is offering its younger customers a chance for a co-starring role in an upcoming television commercial at the cost of one cent. The commercial is scheduled to debut across the Midwest retailer's five-state footprint in 2014, and will feature images of children riding its iconic penny horse, Sandy, over several generations.
Meijer is asking customers to submit photos featuring their children or their younger selves riding Sandy through a "Star with Sandy" contest application on the Meijer Facebook page. Ten winners will receive $100 Meijer gift cards and all photos have the chance to appear in the commercial, announced Nicole Laughlin, vice president of brand development for the Grand Rapids, Mich.-based retailer.
"Sandy is unique to Meijer and we're pleased to have her as part of our shopping experience," Laughlin said. "We look forward to sharing these special moments in our advertising, to help us say 'hello' to new neighbors and bring a smile to seasoned Sandy riders in the communities we've served for much longer."
The iconic mechanical horse made its debut with the opening of Thrifty Acres in 1962, when the late Fred Meijer, who had a long history with horses, learned of 10-cent pony rides at a supermarket in Nebraska. Fred thought a dime was a lot of money and decided to charge one penny, a price which has since become a symbol of family shopping at reasonable prices.
"If you can put a penny in you can be a hero to the kids for a penny, or for three cents for three kids," said Fred in "Fred Meijer: In His Own Words."
Sandy has been a fixture at the front of all Meijer stores across the Midwest for decades, and is often the last thing a child remembers on the way out of the store. The only time Fred Meijer felt bad for having ponies in the store was in 1964, when the Greenville, Mich. store burned down. He remembered children were crying because they thought the horse had burned up.
"My dad believed in making things affordable for our customers and that included Sandy," Meijer Co-Chairman Doug Meijer said. "Riding Sandy is a memory shared by so many children and parents who shop at our stores. But the real magic happens when those children grow up and bring their own kids back for a ride."
The Star with Sandy contest is open through Feb. 6. Entries can be submitted at .
About Meijer: Meijer is a Grand Rapids, Mich.-based retailer that operates 204 supercenters and grocery stores throughout Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky. As a pioneer of the "one-stop shopping" concept, Meijer stores have evolved through the years to include expanded fresh produce and meat departments, as well as pharmacies, comprehensive electronics departments, garden centers and apparel offerings.

Historical Traveler Reviews Inn at 410 Bed and Breakfast Flagstaff
Now, read this review knowing that I usually disagree with people on Tripadvisor... I find what most people think is fabulous, I think is just OK- but here is what I thought of our trip in June of the Inn at 410 in Flagstaff. I am picky.. I have taken to not staying anywhere if there is a marginal review from Trip Advisor because I find those will probably be my thoughts which is why we chose this spot... But here's my impression.
FABULOUS innkeepers- just very nice people, super helpful and accomodating.
Garden is super, main house is terrific... although ask about the specifics of the room you are getting, we noticed the 'Tea Room' opened right onto the main sitting room.
We stayed in the Suite Nature suite with our kids- a downstairs suite and could hear the people walking above us. But we were SO grateful to find a two bedroom set up that was not an 'Inns Suite' or Franchise type place so we sucked up for the 235.00 a night. Well, the very loud air conditioning was in the kids room, our room only had a ceiling fan so we had to keep the door between the rooms open to keep it cool enough for us (not really what we hoped for having a 2 room suite). Although, you NEED the air conditioning on to cover up the train noise which is 4 blocks away and comes through town about every 15 minutes. There was a restaurant with outdoor seating directly out the front door of the suite behind a fence- a bit noisy at night and prevented being able to leave the windows open to cool the 'parent' room or sitting on the 'private' patio at night.
Our room was not made up for us each night. Who wants to make their own bed on vacation?
Bathroom towels were small- water pressure low in shower.
Breakfast was great- super service and had cold cereal for the kids, which was great.
No cable TV- and no tv at all in the adjoining room. The one tv was tiny but would accomodate DVDs and VCR tapes but we ended up getting 'kid' videos from the lobby because there was only one tv- The 'Twig/Wicker sofa and chair' were not very comfortable to sit.
No clock in the adjoining room and my kids said the beds were rock hard and they didn't sleep well leaving them cranky during the day.
We didn't see any of the other rooms except peeked into the 'Tea Room' because the doors were open- It was decorated more nicely than ours- The decorating in our suite- I would say was a bit cheesy (fake birds in nests... silk greenery, moose wallpaper trim)- and I expected a bit nicer accomodation for the price we paid.
The journal in the room was bursting with complements about the room so for most families it's probably just fine or better than fine- and if you are used to your family of four sharing a Holiday Inn room then this would definitely be a treat.
We did enjoy the grounds, breakfast and the innkeepers... SUPER convenient location for walking to downtown and easy parking which is a definite plus.
I felt it was overpriced for the accomodations.
Thank you for your review and I apologize for your unpleasant experience with us.
While I can see from your other reviews that you are a pretty picky person, I wish you had spoken with me while you were here, so I could make amends. In the future, I hope you speak with management during or at the end of your stay when we can do something about it. We do know that you left your "Do Not Disturb" sign out while you and your family went out for the day, therefore, you received no housekeeping over your two night stay.
We have made a lot of improvements to Suite Nature over the past summer, new bed, new photography (originals, one is in AZ state governor's office), new furniture and double paned glass throughout. We now have televisions/DVD players in both rooms.
As to Tea Room, we have never had a complaint about noise in this room, the door and its padding are over 4 inches thick. Guests love it. The Inn at 410 has received many awards and great reviews from the industry as well as our guests.
As to train noise, we are located five blocks from the train and we have double paned windows and privacy shades in every room. Yes, there are over 100 trains that come through Flagstaff per day and the City Council has plans to eliminate the train horns over the next year.
I would like to offer you a gift certificate for a return use in the full amount of your stay if you would like to call me at the Inn.
All my best,
Gordon Watkins
Beautiful and charming
WeI had a wonderful stay at the Inn. The rooms are absolutely delightful and beautifully decorated. The staff was incredibly helpful and warm, yet discreet when necessary. The food was delicious. My new fiancee proposed to me during our weekend stay at the Inn, and I can't think of anywhere better to have that memory. We thank everyone at the Inn, and we will certainly be back again...
Cozy and Comfortable
My husband and I do enjoy our getaways to bed and breakfast locations and our experience at the Inn at 410 was one of the nicest.
From the outside, it looks like any other older bilding but once you step in, you are transported to a world of the early 1900s. The house is about a 100 years old and since we arrived early (and the early check in was no problem), I had a chance to look at all the rooms...they were all lovely! I would love to stay in all of them. We stayed in the Southwest which is a cozy 2 room suite with a jacuzzi tub and the room decor was very cozy and very comfy and private. I highly recomment it for a special weekend.
They had evening refreshments, all freshly made and very delicious which were pretty much available all evening to keep snacking. They are located a few blocks from downtown Flagstaff which makes a very comfortable evening stroll. We met the owners who were very nice in suggesting places to visit around Flagstaff as well as a restaurant for dinner, which was indeed very nice! They have the cutest little dog, Ginger!
Breakfast, the next morning, was lovely and we also got to meet all the other guests staying at the inn. We were sorry to leave but had a wonderful stay! Thankyou!
A lovely place
I'm not a BnB person, but I had a really great stay at the Inn at 410. First of all, the breakfast is so great - really fresh, good food, enough so that I skipped lunch both days that I was there.
I found the staff really pleasant and unobtrusive - esp since I spent most of my stay in my room, recovering from a bad cold.
The video library is a plus, since there's no TV. But they have hundreds of movies to loan out to you for free. They also have wireless internet free for guests, as well as a computer downstairs for checking email, etc.
I stayed in "Canyon Memories", which was a very nice, simple room, with a gas fireplace (like all rooms) and a very decent bathroom. Overall, I had a good experience and would go back - although it helped, I think, that I went in low season and got the room for $100. Also there were hardly any other guests there, so I didn't feel cramped or strange - mostly I just felt like I was crashing at a friends house (or a friend's parent's house) for a few days, being taken excellent care of by a full staff. Not a bad time, at all.
Best B&B in the world
We have stayed in many B&Bs in many cities and I can definitely say this is the best we have ever been in. Each of the rooms (we looked at almost all of them) is wonderfully furnished and is so comfortable to be in to relax. None of the staff members acts like an "employee"; they are happy to provide whatever you ask and will go out of their way to do so. The breakfasts (we were there for three nights) are gourmet and they are different and unique each day; if you are hungry they are happy to provide seconds. They are also very up on the area and will give you great tips on where to go and how to get there. An example is a trip to the Grand Canyon: Most people have to wait in line for an hour or more on an average day but we were given directions to the east entrance and we got there at 11:30 a.m. and there was no line. When we left at 4:45 p.m. out of the main entrance we saw a 1/4-mile line during the "slow" period. They also have a large garden area with many tables and chairs for you to relax, read a book, sip some wine, and enjoy the visiting hummingbirds. Bottom line is that if you can find anything better let me know!!
Plwasnat place near the railroad
The inn is small, immaculate, charming. The staff was helpful in making reservations for a massage and for dinner.
The breakfasts are skimpy especially since many people come to the town for active vacations.
Flagstaff has two grade level railroad crossings four blocks away, and freight trains go through very fifteen minutes day and night. Shutting the windows and turning on the air conditioning let me sleep, but the noise might be a problem in the winter with no air conditioning sound to mask it.
Highs and Lows
Inn at 410 is beautiful, the service is impeccable, and every room is different and delightful to look at, but we did encounter some problems. Our bed was as hard as a rock (and we're used to a firm mattress!) and made sleep difficult, and, while the chairs in the room were very cute, they certainly weren't comfortable - we ended up sitting on the bed. Breakfast was beautifully served but uncommonly small portions - so small we wondered if they had not planned for as many guests and had to cut down serving size to accommodate everyone (even my husband, an extremely light eater, commented on how little there was for breakfast). Overall, this inn is above average and we might well stay there again, but not in the same suite. I do want to add, however, that the manager told us they were talking about getting new mattresses, so others might not encounter the problem we did.
What a great B&B!!!
What a great B&B. Big rooms. Extremely clean. Beds as comfortable as the Ritz Carlton. Big fireplace. Great area. We walked to numerous restaurants in the snow. Real Christmas feel for someone from Southern Cal.
The owner Gordon was great. (Former Ritz Carlton Employee) Gave my wife discount tickets to the Snow Bowl to go snowboarding. Awesome breakfast in the morning.
My wife and I are use to staying at the Ritz, Westin or Hyatt. This was by far the most comfortable. You won't be disappointed. Each room has a different theme but are very classy. It also doesnt have the "Old Grandma Feel" that some of the B&Bs have. I saw other places we thought of staying before booking here.....thank goodness we didn't. This place is by far the best in Flagstaff.
We stayed here last October and are planning to go back this Christmas. Beautiful rooms, thankfully not in the 'European style' most places boasted. Hot apple cider and cookies welcomed us on our very late arrival and breakfast of pancakes and fruit was just what we needed after a long drive the night before.
Wonderful Place
Absolutely delightful property within walking distance to downtown. My fiance and I loved the room we were given (we were upgraded), and the wonderful staff that helped fill all of our needs. A beautiful b and b in a quirky, fun town that is too often overlooked.

... kind of hard to do. So after they got done "stalling", we were finally ready to go. You can see a picture of me getting ready to hop into the RV.
So, we got out of town without any problems (seems we did find a good route) and headed for Barstow. I've never been to the desert before and I have to say, it was not really exciting and was kind of hot! The next day, we headed for Kingman, AZ. Just as we got on the road, we headed to get ...

Re: Full-duplex fails on new Mac Pro in response to G. GollingerI tried it on mine and it seemed to work just fine...
Weird... have you tried both ports on your mac? or a different network drop somewhere else? (just to eliminate things as you go... )
G. Gollinger Jun 11, 2009 12:15 PM
Re: Full-duplex fails on new Mac Pro in response to Ramses MoyaThe second Ethernet port does the same thing. I haven't lugged it to a different port as yet, but I don't think it's the port because the MacBook (and other machines) are OK with it....

Re: Full-duplex fails on new Mac Pro in response to Ramses MoyaAlso, I plan on installing Bootcamp/XP on this machine next week. This might help diagnose whether it's a hardware issue or something else entirely....
Ramses Moya Jun 12, 2009 7:47 AM
Re: Full-duplex fails on new Mac Pro in response to G. GollingerDon't know what to say... what you want to make sure is that there are no problems with the negotiation between them..
I seem to remember long ago, that depending on the configuration of certain Cisco switches and the mac's Appletalk network number, would interfere with the negotiation of the speed. I think it had to do with the spanning-tree protocol and it would always bring you to 1/2 duplex. Its a fix at the Cisco switch... Seem to remember that by setting the same Appletalk Network number manually in the Appletalk control panel, the problem went away. That is why certain machines had the problems and others did not...
But I don't know what is your network setup like... Are you in an office env or at home?
Have you tried setting the duplex manually?
ifconfig en0 media 1000baseTX mediaopt full-duplex
G. Gollinger Jul 16, 2009 9:56 AM
Re: Full-duplex fails on new Mac Pro in response to Ramses MoyaSorry for the delay. XP was set up and full-duplex works just fine. On the Mac end, I did do the ifconfig and it didn't change. [Clarify: it stayed half-duplex according to "ifconfig en0"]

Re: Full-duplex fails on new Mac Pro in response to G. GollingerThere is no standard for auto speed/duplex detection, and some network interfaces don't work well with some switches. If you can't lock the speed and duplex on your switch port, then you're probably using a cheap unmanageable switch and it just may not work well with your Mac network interface.
We're very discouraged here by vendors who supply mission critical network hardware and suggest we leave the port set to autodetect. That has never been a reliable feature, even using components from the same manufacturer. We have seen 3com network adapters fail to connect properly to 3com switches, cisco to cisco, netgear to netgear, etc. If manufacturers can't make their own devices do it properly don't expect devices from different manufacturers to do it reliably.

Re: Full-duplex fails on new Mac Pro in response to direwolf8The upstream switch is a Cisco 2950 that I do not manage. It is administratively set to 100-Full-NoAuto (against my wishes).
Sultan of Stream Sep 14, 2009 10:22 AM
Re: Full-duplex fails on new Mac Pro in response to G. GollingerI've had the same issues with '08 Mac Pros & '09 Mac Pros - they never automatically select 100Mbit full-duplex, it must always be done manually - and half the time selecting 100 Mbit, full-duplex doesn't work. The Macs in my office are all connected to an XSAN, so both Ethernet ports are used on different subnets - both are 100 Mbit, full-duplex. I've even seen instances where one Ethernet port works properly (allows you to manually set 100 Mbit, full-duplex) & the other port ON THE SAME MAC PRO does not... Very frustrating! Fortunately, we have HP switches (the same models for both subnets) that I manage, so when it happens, I just set the switch port to auto, the Mac port to auto & wait for the next OS X point release - & try to set them manually again. This results in half-duplex communication for a while, but at least there are no collisions.
And guess what? This morning I just updated a '09 Mac Pro from Leopard to Snow Leopard - everything worked fine before the OS update, after the reboot, I find that I can't manually select 100 Mbit full-duplex. I had hoped that Snow Leopard wouldn't have this issue...

Re: Full-duplex fails on new Mac Pro in response to G. GollingerWe are having the exact same issue at our organization. This is a network card driver issue that started when the 10.5.7 update was applied to 2009 Mac Pros. After this update, 100/Full Duplex no longer works. We've opened a ticket with Apple on this; for now we found a workaround. The file that's causing the problem is IONetworkingFamily.kext located in /System/Library/Extensions/ folder. The version that came with 10.5.7 causes the NIC to stop working on 100/Full. Copy the IONetworkingFamily.kext from a 10.5.6 system. On the affected system, boot from another drive. Paste the 10.5.6 IONetworkingFamily.kext file into the affected OS's /System/Library/Extensions/ folder, replacing the original. Last step (very important), run a repair permissions on the affected OS which should set the proper permissions on the file you just copied (System account should Read & Write access). Reboot to the affected OS; NIC should now work on 100/Full. Be aware, this is only a workaround; if 10.5.8 is run on this patched OS, the issue will reoccur.

Re: Full-duplex fails on new Mac Pro in response to nicklyaineDid your ticket ever get answered? I am having the same problem and it is EXTREMELY frustrating. I'm watching all these Windows machines around me work just fine and I'm beginning to wonder if I should have made the switch to Mac at all.

Re: Full-duplex fails on new Mac Pro in response to toddpiketUnder 10.6.2 the same problem.
Apple disgrace themselves.
I hope someone finds a quick and clean solution.
Thanks nicklyaine for this workaround. I will try out and report, if its working also under 10.6.

Re: Full-duplex fails on new Mac Pro in response to G. GollingerIs there any movement in resolving this issue? My network connection used to FLY with 10.5. Now it is ultra-slow and I can't set it to full-duplex 100Mbit like before. VERY frustrating. Am I an isolated case? Is there something I can ask my network administrator to do to the switches/routers? Is a fix in the works? Come on Apple, please speak up.
buzzyboy1 Mar 3, 2010 9:39 AM
Re: Full-duplex fails on new Mac Pro in response to buzzyboy1Solved! You have to use Terminal to enter this ifconfig command:
sudo ifconfig en0 media 100baseTX mediaopt hw-loopback
Now Full-Duplex is working! Come on Apple, this hw-loopback option should be in the Network System Preference if this is what it takes.
screenwright Apr 15, 2010 6:38 AM
Re: Full-duplex fails on new Mac Pro in response to buzzyboy1This DOES work, but on all of my Snow Leopard machines, it is reset back to half-duplex after a system restart.
Curious to see if everyone else has the same problem.

Ilha do Cajual - Spot the Scarlet Ibis
Every year tens of thousands of migratory shorebirds reach the Maranhense coast. An importing nesting area is found deep in Baia de Sao Marcos, on Ilha do Cajual, home of the Wildlife Research and Conservation Station. An extensive estuarine area surrounding the island is a result of the confluence of the Atlantic Ocean salt water with the continental waters of the three rivers and this greatly contributes to the growth of mangroves.
From Alcantara it is possible to do a boat trip by the river and igarapes to visit Ilha do Cajual which is an environmental protected area of the state of Maranhao. Among the waterbirds that nest on the mangrove vegetation of the island is scarlet ibis, one of the most beautiful birds that can be found along the Brazilian coastline. A small crab, present on the ibis' staple diet, is responsible for the strong pigmentation of its plumage.
It is not hard to spot scarlet ibis in Alcantara, especially on Praia da Baronesa. Though it is nothing to compare with the sight of hundreds of bright red birds on the dense green tops of the trees that can be spotted on Ilha do Cajual at sunset. It is really spectacular! Scarlet ibis are always in flocks and are easily scared. A good zoom lens, absolute silence and a lot of patience is needed to photograph them.

Praia de Itatinga
Praia de Itatinga is 5 km long stretch of beach with firm and flat sand and shallow waters. When the tide is low, you can get there on foot. But most of the time the beach is only accessible by canoe, departing from Praia da Baronesa (the Baroness Beach), the most popular beach of Alcantara. It's easy to arrange the transfer across the canal with the boatman (ask at Pousada das Guaras).
You won't find any bars on the beach. A little hut is the only place that affords some shelter from the sun, and also the place to leave your belongings while you head to swim or take a walk. Don't forget to take a bottle of water with you.
The beach is surrounded by Igarape de Itatinga on one side. You can make a nice ecological walk there and along the beach. The sunsets here can get especially magic so it's worth staying a little longer and agree with the boatman to pick you up only after the sunset.

The concept of Prayer Stop is nothing new. In fact for thousands of years people have been setting up portable tables to promote or sale their products, services, wears and other items in the market place. What we have endeavored to do with Prayer Stop, is develop a powerful, effective and biblical way for Christians to reach out and minister to, pray for and share the gospel with people in their communities. We also made it so simple anyone can do it.

April 17, 2010
In memory of Tomasz Merta (1965–2010) The event known as Katyn began when the Red Army invaded Poland, along with the Wehrmacht, in September 1939. The Soviets took thousands of Polish officers prisoner and held them in the ruins of Orthodox monasteries. When these men were allowed to leave the camps, 70 years ago in April 1940, they expected that they would be returning home. Instead, they were taken to Kharkiv, or Tver, or Katyn. Over the course of a few days, 21,892 of these prisoners were shot in the base of the skull.
The TNR Primer: Kyrgyzstan
April 09, 2010
Earlier this week, the small Central Asian country of Kyrgyzstan erupted in violence. Days after protests broke out in a few small towns, thousands of people opposed to President Kurmanbek Bakiev's corrupt regime took to the streets of Bishkek, the capital city, and clashed with government forces. At least 75 people have died and hundreds more have been injured. Several government buildings have been set on fire, and countless businesses have been looted.
Dubai for Borat? Bad Idea.
December 10, 2009
Dubai is faltering. With its gleaming towers, indoor ski slopes, man-made islands, and other luxury projects, the city had epitomized the wealth that the global economic boom of the 1990s and early 2000s produced. It was even pronounced "too big to fail." But then, the boom went bust, and Dubai wasn't immune. And yet, despite glaring warning signals emanating from the Persian Gulf, some unusual suspects are moving forward with plans for their own Dubais.
The End of Big Oil
February 27, 2008
When historians one day dissect the long arc of humankind's use of fossil fuels, they may very well zero in on October 9, 2006, as a turning point for Big Oil. That's when it became clear that the major oil companies--the giants that had survived numerous predicted extinctions and gone on to ever-greater profit and influence--were undergoing a tectonic shift and would either reinvent themselves or die.
Crude Joke
February 12, 2007
IF THERE WAS one thing George W. Bush and his clique were supposed to know, it was oil. That, at least, was the widespread consensus back in 2000, when Bush first sought the White House, and it was easy to understand why. Bush's grandfather was an oilman. His father was an oilman. He himself had worked in oil. His vice presidential nominee, Dick Cheney, was the former CEO of energy giant Halliburton. His campaign's chairman, Donald Evans, was CEO of the oil company Tom Brown.

East-West detente has had a chilling consequence in Moscow.

Immigration reform nowJuly 05,2014Nearly 10 years ago, I witnessed my community come together in defense of a family that had been torn apart. A migrant farm worker had been detained and deported to El Salvador, leaving his wife and three children behind, the youngest only six months old.
Our community came together because these people were not illegals, or trespassers they were our neighbors, our community members and, most importantly, our friends. Their kids went to school with me and my brothers, and they worked for businesses that supported our local economy.
Today, I join 1,500 women from all over the country in a fast to urge Congress and President Obama to end the millions of deportations that are tearing families apart. They have the power to advance immigration reform, yet they stand by idly, accepting no responsibility or accountability for turning the lives of millions upside-down.
Vermont is home to over 1,500 migrant workers and their families, and not a single one of them should have to live in fear of being taken away from their loved ones. As a community, we should be insisting that our local law enforcement comply with Vermonts Bias Free Policing Law, instead of helping immigration enforcement take caregivers and mothers away from their children.
Today, I am fasting to show Congress and the president that I am not afraid to stand up for whats right. Maybe then, they will find the courage to do the same.

This item arrived really quickly and is absolutely beautiful. Really heavy cotton material and lovely light pink colour. The belt detail looks like leather and adds excellent detail. It's a bit more than floor length and I'm 5'6", so perfect with wedges or heels.

ESF is a fast paced, 3rd person fighter based on the hit anime, Dragonball Z. Select your favorite character and fly, power up, transform, melee, and beam your enemies into pulp. Each character is given signature moves and abilities to compliment different style of play. Some are stronger in hand to hand combat, others are better with energy attacks. Play in three different game modes, deathmatch, team deathmatch, and capture the dragonballs. There is a learning curve so newbies beware. This is not your normal Half-life mod.

In a rare piece of good news, a federal judge has dismissed the indictments against four animal rights activists who have been charged under the new Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act. This law was written to make it a federal crime to interfere in any way with any industry that utilizes animals as products, test subjects or any other capacity.
The faultiness of such a law has been outlined in great detail. Under the most literal reading of the law, simply being vegan could be construed as an act of terrorism since it interferes with companies' ability to sell meat, dairy and eggs. This law is a terrifying joke. It's a stopgap measure to try and stave off the rising tide of consumers aware of the plight of animals in our culture. Animal rights is the biggest moral concern in 2010, and the AETA is a misguided attempt by the animal agriculture industry to paint the animal rights community as a domestic terrorist threat.
How much sillier does it get than to live in a country where the KKK still exists, yet the animal rights community is considered a terrorist threat?
The four activists composing what was being informally referred to as the AETA4 were Joseph Buddenberg, Maryam Khajavi, Nathan Pope and Adriana Stumpo. They were charged with federal crimes for doing what amounted to constitutionally protected free speech: picketing and distributing fliers regarding cruel vivisection taking place at UC Santa Cruz. Judge Ronald White very likely saw through the obvious legal facade when he said the indictment was too vague and lacked "specificity" in the allegations.
It's likely that the four activists will be indicted again, but it isn't a good sign for the government's case that the original indictment has been thrown out. It's going to be difficult for the U.S. Attorney's Office to make a more specific indictment without getting to the heart of the matter: that the government is trying to prosecute people for exercising their first amendment rights.
Regardless of where you stand on animal rights, you should oppose the AETA if you believe in the first amendment. This law is an affront to liberty, and the people on the front lines of the greatest moral struggle of our generation are the ones suffering.
My sympathies are with the AETA4 and I can only hope that their lengthy legal battle will soon come to an end.

Thank you for sharing.
Speaking out against the outrages committed on other species cannot be legislated out of legality. And I'm getting very tired of every Tom, Dick, and Harry -- mostly the Dicks -- citing the constitution to support their own claims.
Industry,profits and politics is lurking behind all of this.
Thanks for the update on yet more rediculous law. Seems like government is removing our liberties slowly and methodically. One here, one there then how many are truly gone. I believe there is a reason the First Amendment is first, it's big!! Freedom of Speech - a matter of believing and voicing an opinion, although a powerful way to educate others!!
We have the Patriot Act to thank for this kind of misuse of justice. Speaking out got a lot more difficult with it's implementation.
If anything needs to be killed, it's this law. I support these four activists and I pray they'll come out of this unbelievable fiasco victoriously.
You notice they didn't pass a law forbidding the anti-abortionists from interfering with Planned Parenthood's right to conduct business. A.E.T.A. should have never been passed. Didn't Diane Feinstein first introduce this bill? Overturn this crap and shame on the 12% that said no. If I were a dude, I would tell you twits to blow me!
Thanks for the info
Ouch. I didn't know anything about that silly law.
Thank you for the info.
When are bipeds going to realize that people who torture animals can do the same to helpless humans?
I'm glad that judge dismissed the case!!
It's a stupid law promoted and passed by the stupid people who voted for it. Get rid of them next time they run for re-election.

Rated 3.3 out of 5 by 7 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Livi Just what I was looking for This piece fits perfectly in our study. Perfect corner to relax and read a book or gets some work done while lounging. I will say that I wouldn't have paid full price because I thinks its a little high for, lets be honest a fancy futon. Instead I waited patiently for it to go one sale and then purchased with a coupon. If the sale price was the original price, then I would change the value to excellent. September 27, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by missboo7 Everyone likes this Day Sofa! We like the day sofa very much. I hope to get an additional set of covers for it when they are available at World Market. They have an interesting pattern which will be easier to keep in great condition. (I have a dog). My friends who have seen the sofa all have commented about how much they like it. It was a good choice. September 16, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by buyingtheworld Great sofa, poor fabric choice This little sofa is comfy and versatile, and takes up very little visual space in our beach house living room. It is easy to assemble as well. I cannot speak to the longevity of it, as it is new, but everyone who used it for sitting and sleeping gave it two thumbs up. The big downside: The fabric on this sofa actually attracts dirt of all kinds and invites stains like no other I have seen. Hands you think are clean will stain this thing! I noticed this problem in the store sample and planned and made a removable cover for it from a white solid quilt with two matching full size shams on the back of it for pillows instead of the ones supplied. It looks great. I would not have ordered it or kept it if did not know I could attractively cover it. August 12, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by BobN Great design Loved it when I seen it. Fits in my office, great to relax and read on and comfortable to sleep on. The cats love it to. But after the 1st wash, and I hung it to dry because I knew it would shrink some. The zipper separated in several spots, unfixable. The zipper clasp has broken in two. So there it sits gapping open and the stuffing sticking out. Very poor design to put a nylon zipper in to support these cushions. So there it sits with a throw on it till I can put in a metal zipper. Replace covers run $130 dollars, and I presume they to will perform the same way. Company should replace new covers to all buyers. So I'm off to the craft store in search of a long zipper, only because I love this comfy sofa. July 7, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by Kdavs Love this daybed, but the slipcover is the worst We got this daybed for our three season room, and usually use it like a chaise. The style, functionality, everything is perfect. The problem: we washed the slipcover. I had seen reviews noting that the reviewer was unable to use the slipcover after washing. We washed it in cold water, on gentle cycle, and tumbled dry, no heat--that seems to be what the instructions implied. We could zip it back on, but the zipper would just randomly open at various places around the cushion. The stuffing was exposed. I had to go buy another slipcover; I was pretty displeased. It also depletes the value of the purchase when you have to spend 2/5 of the cost of the entire daybed on another slipcover. On the way home I stopped at a discount store and bought a set of twin sheets for a few dollars. They fit well enough that you can barely tell they weren't made for the sofa. I HIGHLY recommend this for anyone who bought this sofa., since the included slipcovers are unwashable. August 3, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by MrDomino Beautiful sofa while it lasts (which is until it's time to clean it) This is such a great looking sofa and was perfect for my balcony, fitting snugly between the two double doors and making for a perfect resting spot. I love how versatile the design is, allowing it to go from love seat to chaise lounge to bed in an instant. I had lusted after this sofa for some time and was thrilled when I finally brought it home. Unfortunately, while this day sofa is excellently designed, the slipcover zipper is incredibly frail. You won't notice it at first since the cushions are already zipped in, ready to plop on the frame once assembled. It hasn't even been a full year since buying when I decided to remove the cover to clean it, and sure enough I can no longer secure the cover over the cushions since the zipper popped. It's a real shame because it is such a nice sofa and exactly what I want, but I can't afford spending $100-120 on a new slip cover each time it needs to be cleaned. Given the otherwise solid construction of the frame and materials, I'm rather surprised by how flimsy the one little zipper securing it all is. For this reason and this reason alone, I think anyone looking at this sofa should reconsider. Unless you have the skills and tools to sew a new zipper to the slipcover or you're more than willing to buy a new slipcover each time you need to unzip the thing -- doesn't that sound absolutely ridiculous? -- you need to pass on this sofa. I'm pretty bummed since I designed my whole balcony around this sofa, but I have let it go. I'm only glad I was able to wait as long as I did to clean it, so I at least got a good 10-11 months of use out of it. June 29, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by TedK covers all plastic polyester Product advertised as 100 cotton canvas slipcovers. They are plastic - pillows and slipcover are polyester. I hope I don't to have to pay for the return. Product is not as advertised. October 2, 2015

Older and newer medicine together often bring relief, study finds
MONDAY, Nov. 26 (HealthDay News) -- Combining an older synthetic drug with a newer, "biologic" medication may work best to ease the joint swelling and tenderness of rheumatoid arthritis, a new study finds.
There are many therapies for rheumatoid arthritis, but the newer drugs are not better than older ones when used alone, the report's authors found.
"There are no clinically important differences among the older synthetic drugs or among the newer biologic drugs," said lead researcher Dr. Katrina E. Donahue, an assistant professor in the department of family medicine at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. "There are combination therapies that do work better than using one drug in people not responding to one drug alone," she said.
Combining a synthetic with a biologic appears to work best, Donahue said. However, which combinations are most effective still isn't clear. In addition, the short-term side effects appear to be the same for both types of drugs, she added.
In the study, Donahue's team reviewed 23 published studies that compared the benefits and harms of different rheumatoid arthritis drugs. These included, synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), biologic DMARDs, and corticosteroids.
Synthetic DMARDs include hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil), leflunomide (Arava), methotrexate (Trexall) and sulfasalazine (Azulfidine). Biologic DMARDs include abatacept (Orencia), adalimumab (Humira), anakinra (Kineret), etanercept (Enbrel), infliximab (Remicade) and rituximab (Rituxan). Corticosteroids include drugs such as prednisone.
Donahue's group found that combining methotrexate with a biologic DMARD worked better than methotrexate or a biologic alone. They also found that methotrexate was as effective as the biologics adalimumab and etanercept in early rheumatoid arthritis.

Choosing replacements
Choosing replacements
Arrol Gellner
Inman News™
Editor's note: This is the first of a two-part series.
Flickr image courtesy of SportSuburban.
I recently came across a nice 1960s-era California Rancher that had been "upgraded" with new windows and doors. The trouble was, every single replacement evoked a different architectural style, none of which was, alas, appropriate for a Rancher.
The original aluminum window in the living room had been gracefully divided into three parts, but its replacement was a single huge, doughy-looking vinyl picture window. An adjacent sliding door, on the other hand, had been swapped for a vinyl one with fake Colonial-style divided lites.
Another nearby window had the now-inescapable Craftsman style divided lites with crisscrossed corners. To top it off, the original clean-lined Rancher front doors had been replaced by a pair of faux-Victorian leaded glass models with an ornate floral motif.
This kind of jumble is the building equivalent of striped pants, a Hawaiian shirt, and a houndstooth jacket. They just don't work together.
Different styles of windows unavoidably evoke different architectural eras, both traditional and modern, so it's important to choose windows that complement rather than contradict the style of your house. Here's a quick rundown of which windows go with which style:
If replacing your existing windows makes sense -- and as we'll find out next time, it often doesn't -- you'll get the best aesthetic results by replacing like for like. In other words, replace casements with casements, sliders with sliders, and so on.
Just as important, don't arbitrarily add decorative divided lites or other features if the originals didn't have them. That way, you can be sure the style of your windows won't fight the style of your house.
Next time: OK, we've settled on the style -- now which material?

"There is a way to implement it but it's got so many red flags it's like communism."
"That tears it. I need to get a donkey."

Things that if Turbine went all EXTREME PREJUDICE™ on, would actually make the game fun again.:
- Giving us the racial PrE's we were promised, before rolling out DDOStore™ Enhancement Trees.
- Cannith Crafting.
- Update the named loot to put them on the same system.
- Fixing the Cannith Challenges so that they can be 6 starred without incredible luck or store bought items.
- Fixing all challenges to give us decent XP and ingredient returns for the unreasonable time we have to spend in most of them.

Social site claims big traffic increases for its social app launch partners.
Some of Facebook's timeline app partners are apparently giddy with the relationship so far, according to a post on the company's developer blog today.
Let's start with the much-hyped Pinterest, one of 60 launch partners announced last month. Since starting its open graph integration, the virtual pin-up board has seen its daily visitors increase 60 percent.
Retail brand Fab.com's traffic originating from Facebook grew 50 percent. According to Facebook, the jump has come from Fab.com's shopping app and new live feeds via the timeline.
Menlo Park, CA-based Facebook disclosed only percentage increases, not raw numbers. The timeline apps let Facebook developers create social media actions such as "want" or "own," which represent descendants of the lesser descriptive "Like" button. Theoretically, since the actions are more colorful, they are helping drive more Facebook.com eyeballs to the timeline app partners.
Here are other factoids from Facebook's blog post:
