Skip to comments.What Spreads Faster Than Bedbugs? Social Stigma (you can thank the enviro-whackos for this one!)
Posted on 08/20/2010 7:33:23 PM PDT by rabscuttle385
Jeremy Sparig spent months fighting bedbugs. Now, to some people, he is like a mattress left on the street, something best avoided in these times.
They dont want to hug you anymore; they dont want you coming over, said Mr. Sparig, of East Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Youre like a leper.
At the Brooklyn district attorneys office, which recently had a bedbug breakout, defense lawyers are skittish about visiting, and it is not because of the fierce prosecutors.
Even Steven Smollens, a housing lawyer who has helped many tenants with bedbugs, has his guard up. Those clients are barred from his office. I meet outside, he said. Theres a Starbucks across the street.
Beyond the bites and the itching, the bother and the expense, victims of the nations most recent plague are finding that an invisible scourge awaits them in the form of bedbug stigma. Friends begin to keep their distance. Invitations are rescinded. For months, one woman said, her mother was afraid to tell her that she had an infestation. When she found out and went to clean her mothers apartment, she said, Nobody wanted to help me.
Fear and suspicion are creeping into the social fabric wherever bedbugs are turning up, which is almost everywhere: Public health agencies across the country have been overwhelmed by complaints about bedbugs, said a joint statement this month from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Environmental Protection Agency.

Thank you, enviro-whackos!
Morons, DDT caused birth defects, hello. It's probably bio-warfare. There are better insecticides than DDT, but you do have to spend money on the exterminator
Well good grief, they only bite at night. Take the mattress out and spray around all the crevices with a good bug spray and also around the bedroom. Do this every spring and they won't be much of a bother. I survived them as a child. Never suffered any lasting effects. LOL
Caused birth defects? Genetic retards cause birth defects. Ignorance and megalomania are also causes, and heavy burdens to go through life with.
This infestation has deprived me of one of my favorite past times...dumpster diving. (Curb side actually) I've picked up case goods,repaired them and painted them for resale. Now, I cannot. Bedbug live EVERYWHERE and can go for up to one year without food.
But even some of the best neighborhoods are suffering the same plague....
>>Morons, DDT caused birth defects, hello<<
Are you calling FReepers, morons?
Department of Health and Human Services, Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry:
"How can DDT, DDE, and DDD affect children?
There are no studies on the health effects of children exposed to DDT, DDE, or DDD. We can assume that children exposed to large amounts of DDT will have health effects similar to the effects seen in adults. However, we do not know whether children differ from adults in their susceptibility to these substances.
There is no evidence that DDT, DDE, or DDD cause birth defects in people. A study showed that teenage boys whose mothers had higher DDE amounts in the blood when they were pregnant were taller than those whose mothers had lower DDE levels. However, a different study found the opposite in preteen girls. The reason for the discrepancy between these studies is unknown.
Studies in rats have shown that DDT and DDE can mimic the action of natural hormones and in this way affect the development of the reproductive and nervous systems. Puberty was delayed in male rats given high amounts of DDE as juveniles. This could possibly happen in humans. A study in mice showed that exposure to DDT during the first weeks of life may cause neurobehavioral problems later in life."
"Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence."
John Adams 1770
100 things you should know about DDT (A Reprint For Earth Day)
You were quicker than I was.
There were never any birth defects, pure junk science.
I was pretty taken aback!
When I was a kid, all of us kids knew the whine of the DDT truck coming down the street. We made a bee-line for our bikes and rode for miles engulfed in the "smoke."
That was 40+ years ago.
This stuff kills them because it cuts into the shell and they dehydrate. You can buy it at any garden nursery for about 10$.
Some people are deficient in facts, some in manners, some in both.
So you could just dump a bag of diatomaceous earth on your bed?
They've got cooties.
Yes. The only drawback is the dust. Use a face mask when spreading it around. Freshwater diatomaceous earth is even edible.
The old biddy and her book have killed millions of adults and children across the globe. But some eagles eggs are getting a harder shell (at least the eggs of birds was the excuse for banning DDT)
It was kind of nice in 1999, not at all nice around 1981, and in 2008 seemed to be slipping backwards. But whatever. Been there, done enough, and am happy to leave NYers to continue gazing at their own navels thinking it's the whole world. Please keep thinking that. Please.
Clemenza, you get an exemption. You have a bona fide preference.
Lots of DDT BS around,...when I was a kid, the city use to go down every street in Detroit and fog to kill misquitos and bugs.....Lots of us 70 and up adults didn't suffer any problems.....Malaria was almost a global wipe out now it kills millions in the third world.....A lot of us adults have been around long enought to spot bull shit when we hear it...
LOL good answer....just what I want to sleep in...
Sometimes, we even followed the truck down the street...and played in the mist.
I'm sure the owner of that Starbucks will be glad to read this.
Biblical pestilence in NYC? Who would have expected that?
But GG, you'd be sleeping alone and bugless. :-D
OMG we actually road bikes without helmets, climbed trees for fun and my mother caught me using the next door neighbors fense to climb on the roof of our garage...it was great up there for an 8 year old....had to get sneaky after mom caught me.....oh the horror and humanity....;O)
Not to mention playing dodgeball in grade school.
Worse, we went rabbit hunting...with our own shotgun. And varmint hunting, as well...with our own .22 rifle. And went fishing...down on the creek where water moccasins were known to hang out.
It wouldn't be much fun being a kid nowadays..
In High school, the ROTC brought their own rifles to school once a week for class...no drive by shooting either...people didn't change, society did and now everything is to be feared...yuk.....and crooks are just victims of society, double yuk
Same here. we used to go out into the spray when they sprayed DDT for mosquitos along the Animas river in Farmington,NM back in 1956.
In the military we sprayed the inside of our KC-135 with DDT to keep the mosquitos down while on the flight line in Thailand.
A minor nuisance? From what I've heard it's IMPOSSIBLE to get rid of them. They not only hide in furniture, cushions, mattresses, pillows, etc., but also behind electrical outlets and vents and in hard-to-see places. I've read about people that just pick up and leave everything behind in their houses and apartments because they can't get rid of them. I have some friends that no longer travel to Vegas or Hawaii because of the problem.
Thanks for the kind words. Some of us our two maladjusted to live anywhere else. Besides, it is high comedy making fun of your neighbors, particularly those who were not even raised in the area, yet adopt all the pretensions of the Manhattan/Park Slope Axis of Dweebals.
*I just returned from imbibing too much sangria, so my spelling was off in the earlier post.
Seriously, I enjoyed my last visit though January is not a good time to visit there. I spent most of the time in meetings anyway. But St. Thomas 5th Ave(?) was an absolute delight -- oh my, do they have "high church" down so well!

Hi Valu3buff,
Okay so I lied, I'm going to reply to it simply because if you put the time into your thoughts, I'm thankful people are willing to share them (and plus I have internet at home now, which helps immensely!) BTW, I pretty much agree with your thoughts and may have some random thoughts to add.
>> 1)...Sotheby's is an attractive place for these people to put their new money because of its strong reputation as a market for Western goods.
It is. Subsequent articles (in other posts) have been indicating strong sales and records in new areas that are of interest to the Asian, Arab and Russian clientele. (For example, see the post re Diamond sales and how those demographics are broken out). I do think this will only continue as (1) people who have the money looks for items that retain a unique value, yet have the potential to be an investment, (2) offer an alternative investment to what's on the standard markets and (3) continues to provide enjoyment/value to people. People have been collectors of various things for centuries. I don't see this going away any time soon, especially with the strength of various sales that are occurring in this squirrely market.
>>2) Yes, while Sotheby's does face a risk from guarantees, the fact that they have had such a long history in this market means that it is more likely for Sotheby's to have an accurate value for a particular item while the potential buyers are incorrect than vice versa.
I'd actually agree with this. I think Christie's gets a lot of press attention and is known amongst the American crowd, but Sotheby's is pretty well known internationally and also has the exposure and data/intelligence to know when a given product line (i.e. items from a particular artist) are being more sought after. I think it should then, however, be understood that this is the type of company that one should know will always have a relatively higher inventory than would be "desired", but that may very well get priced into the stock.
>>2)...since Sotheby's is able to mark down the value of a good that does not meet the guaranteed price to the highest bid, when the market corrects itself and Sotheby's is able to sell the good for its new price ... it would improve its balance sheet.
I agree. There are costs associated with carrying this inventory, and certainly risks. However, I have noticed just from looking at their auctions and their results, their ranges tend to be a little more conservative, and that a lot of the results have been exceeding their ranges. I actually like this conservative expectation and beat demand, versus having high hopes and being disappointed. It's more realistic, especially given the uncertainty in the current markets (both stock/financial and art).
>>3 I believe they said in a conference call that Q1 is also the slowest quarter anyway. I don't know what "single-owner" sales have to do with anything, but your idea that it involves cash-strapped or otherwise disadvan

YSL Beauté | Volume Effet Faux Cils Luxurious Mascara
If there's one beauty product that I hold to much higher standards than any other, then that is without a doubt, mascara. And while I usually 'cocktail' my mascaras (as in mixing various brands and/or formulas to achieve a specific result), sometimes there's no point in messing with a good thing. Case in point: the Volume Effet Faux Cils Luxurious Mascara by YSL Beauté, a product that has basically achieved cult-fave status from devoted users, and validly so.
Completely reformulated, this pioneer in the 'false-lash effect' type of mascara now has B5 Pro-Vitamin to strengthen and protect lashes, while the Triple-Intensity formula will provide intense colour, volume, and care – and all without drying out. Say goodbye to stiff crunchy lashes (unless you like that sort of thing) and hello to a gloriously lush eye fringe.

YSL Beauté | Volume Effet Faux Cils Luxurious Mascara
Volume Effet Faux Cils Luxurious Mascara (CAN $37.00) | Housed in the brand's iconic signature gold packaging with a band bearing the Cassandre logo, the plush bristle brush has an excellent length & girth making it ideal to not only thoroughly coat each lash from the get-go, but also able to grab all the fine hairs you weren't even aware were there – but this mascara will find them, trust me. This is a rich black shade, and while not the blackest I've come across, it's still deep enough to provide plenty of definition to lashes. Even after applying 2 rich coats, my lashes continue to feel 'mobile' without experiencing any flaking or smudging throughout the wearing. Staying power is true until removed (using a dual-phase makeup remover), the product effortlessly coming off without the need for excessive force or tugging (and thus saving your precious lashes in the process).
Also available in 5 other shades

Taking a classic and reinventing it can be risky, but that's exactly what YSL Beauté has done with the Volume Effet Faux Cils Luxurious Mascara – and it's definitely paid off. Offering definition and depth even at one coat, you can also take your lashes to a doll-like level … without caking on multiple layers either. Price-wise it may verge on the steep side, but still on par with other luxury brands, but the fact that it delivers may help take the sting out of that. Just saying.

YSL Beauté | Les Sahariennes Healthy Glow Balm-Powder in N°3 Épice & N°6 Sienne
Recently launched from YSL Beauté, is Les Sahariennes Sun-Kissed Blur Perfector Healthy Glow Balm-Powder (CAN $60.00, available in 6 shades in Canada – 7 shades elsewhere), a product that is the first of its kind and one that merges the faux glow of a bronzer with the pore/fine-line minimizing power of a primer – all in a hybrid balm-to-powder formulation.
This new and unique formula is meant to:
- disguise imperfections
- smooth the complexion
- enhance skin's 'vibrant solar radiance' (I'm guessing that means sun-kissed glow)
- buildable to create a natural, healthy glow all year-round
The unique texture – not quite a balm, nor a powder – but one that starts off silky and slightly slippery, quickly morphs into a soft second-skin powdery finish without any visible shimmer, but neither is it completely flat – leaving a very natural appearance upon the skin. According to the brand:
"Les Sahariennes is the first patented sun-kissed powder-in-balm by YSL Beauté. Concentrated, yet surprisingly lightweight, it transforms from balm to optical powder upon application. The formula contains a combination of volatile oils; once applied, they evaporate leaving the skin's surface a matte bronze finish which perfects the complexion and minimizes pores"
The compacts bear the brand's signature Casandre logo in gold set against a cushioned deep amber lid (which can appear tortoise-shell patterned at certain angles), protected by a dual-pocket velour pouch (*NOTE: do not place the compact face down on non-fabric surfaces, as it will stick with almost suction-like strength. I learned that the hard way). The included applicator is dual ended, with a soft brush on one side and a flat velvet sponge on the other which works well for on-the-go touchups, but I prefer the control I get with my own regular sized brushes and/or beauty sponges. The product is pleasantly scented – a cross between green & floral – and while it's not strong for me, those with sensitivities may want to take note.
The two shades I was sent for review, work perfectly with my skin tone, and while N°6 Sienne was initially much too dark for me to use at first, it has become indispensable now that I've returned from holiday with a tan. Both shades seem to have rosy undertones which I feel more accurately mimic the effects of the sun (as opposed to a yellowish base, that can make skin look sallow and/or muddy). This formula seems to take a little while to set 100%, which actually works in its favour as you have ample time to properly buff it into the skin – or even blend two shades, if desired – for a true-to-life sun kissed look.
On my recent holiday, I was determined to minimize my sun exposure, as my bone-headed sun practices in the past have resulted in hyper pigmentation issues, especially on my face (forehead, cheeks and chin). Therefore, my beauty bag had more bronzers and such than actual makeup – with Les Sahariennes sharing top spot. As my vacation progressed and I started getting some colour, I enhanced my complexion with these two little miracle workers; my preferred method is to apply N°3 Épice on broad areas of the face where evening out of my skin tone is needed (using a dense brush such as the Real Techniques Expert Face Brush), then going in with N°6 Sienne along the tops of the cheeks, the bridge of the nose, forehead, and lightly along the chin – mimicking the fresh glow of a day spent at the beach. This two-pronged effect is incredible; not only does it make my skin look perfectly and evenly tanned (PS: never forget to apply to the tops of ears and down the neck), but the blurring properties minimize pores so that my skin also looks flawless. This is hands-down, one of the most incredible two-in-one products I've come across in years.
Another bonus is that the darker shades can also be used in a contouring capacity, and as this formula is incredibly lightweight as well as effortlessly blendable without any strong shimmer to mess things up, the effect is quite natural looking – just don't forget to buff, buff, buff for a seamless look.

YSL Beauté | Les Sahariennes Healthy Glow Balm-Powder in N°3 Épice & N°6 Sienne
N°3 Épice is the lighter of the two and even though it appears somewhat beige-y in the pan, it holds just enough pink in the base to warm it up beautifully. A few weeks ago (and pre-holiday) my skin was several degrees lighter, so this shade worked beautifully as a very natural-looking bronzer, but now that I'm sporting more of a tan, I have been using N°3 Épice as an allover base to unify my skin tone (works like magic against my light hyper pigmentation issues).
YSL Beauté | Les Sahariennes Healthy Glow Balm-Powder in N°3 Épice swatches
N°6 Sienne is the darker of the two hues, bearing a caramel-like colour and light ruddy tints for extra warmth and impact. Before my holiday-tanned skin, I would use this with a stippling brush, picking up a light amount and gently buffing it into the skin – mainly in areas where the sun would naturally hit (upper cheekbones, forehead, bridge of the nose); in that capacity, it looks like the most spectacular tan (without any of the effort involved acquiring it – bonus!). Even with my presently tanned skin, I still prefer to use this the same way, but I'm able to load up my brush a bit more (and usually applied over a light layer of N°3 Épice) – makes my skin look like I've just spent the day beachside.

Ingredients: Polymethylsilsesquioxane, Dimethicone, Isononyl Isononanoate, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Vinyl Dimethicone/Methicone Silsesquioxane Crosspolymer, C30-45 Alkyldimethylsilyl Polypropylsilsesquioxane, Caprylyl Glycol, Ethylhexyl Hydroxystearate, Fragrance, Calcium Aluminum Borosilicate, Calcium Sodium Borosilicate, Paraffin, Silica, Benzyl Alcohol, Tin Oxide, Linalool
Once the warmer weather hits, it's usually all about bronzers and/or bronzed skin and brands have really stepped up their game in this area, introducing more natural looking formulas and lightweight textures. The YSL Beauté Les Sahariennes Healthy Glow Balm-Powder takes that concept a step further with the addition of a blurring agent, helping to provide a gorgeously flawless (but never fake-looking) glow to the skin. I like how the included applicator is in a separate pocket of the velour sleeve – this way, it doesn't take away from the size/amount of the actual product, and while said applicator is ok in a pinch, I still prefer the precision and control I achieve by using my own brushes. With 6 shades to choose from, I would say that there is a colour to suit all complexions except perhaps the darkest, although you'd have to test that out at counter to be sure, as even deep skin tones can always use some evening out.
Available now through all YSL Beauté counters across Canada, Sephora and sephora.com, The Bay and thebay.com (direct links provided for convenience), and Holt Renfrew. Find more information via yslbeautyus.com

YSL Beauté | La Laque Couture 58 Nuit Blanche & 59 Nuit Noire
Shimmering like sequins upon the nails, La Laque Couture 58 Nuit Blanche and 59 Nuit Noire (CAN $27.00/Limited Edition), part of the Yves Saint Laurent Beauté Désir de Jour Collection for Spring 2015 (Lumière de Jour Palette previously reviewed), draw their inspiration from the duality found within each woman, although the complex nature of each shade seems to blur that line even more. Feminine charm, rebel spirit or a little bit of both?
Note that each bottle has a removable outer cap with the inner cap ridged for ease of use. The brush is well proportioned to pick up the right amount of product, while the bristles have an excellent flexibility and splay, making the whole application process relatively goof-proof. Newly reformulated, all La Laque Couture polishes now include Rose Oil to help strengthen the nails.

YSL Beauté | La Laque Couture 58 Nuit Blanche & 59 Nuit Noire
La Laque Couture 58 Nuit Blanche | A clear base filled with ultra-fine prismatic glitter as well as irregularly shaped mylar flakes. The formula falls on the thick side although still makes for an easy application, enabling the polish to stay exactly where placed without any pooling or migrating into surrounding skin.
Worn alone, there's decent coverage with 2 coats (especially on shorter nails – there will still be visible nail line apparent on longer nails) giving off an icy, snowflake-like effect with an absolutely gorgeous iridescence. Layering Nuit Blanche – in particular over a dark shade – will bring out its twilight nature, displaying more of a blue/purple flash (as seen in the last swatches). Relatively smooth to the touch with a layer of top coat, be prepared for a bit of glitter dispersal upon removal (easily cleaned up with a second pass of your remover). Coats applied: 2, plus top coat
YSL Beauté | La Laque Couture 58 Nuit Blanche
La Laque Couture 59 Nuit Noire | A semi-sheer charcoal base that is filled with fine black and silver glitter pieces in a formula that is somewhat thinner than that of Nuit Blanche. There is a good amount of glitter per brushstroke – no 'fishing' required, and while dark, you'll still see a light translucency upon the nails even with two coats, which I actually prefer as it keeps the look fresh & modern this way. Another unique feature of Nuit Noire, is the light moiré pattern that almost appears to be under the glitter but still at the surface level of the polish – elusive, mysterious and hard to capture in pictures, but you can just barely see it here. Coats applied: 2, plus top coat
With 1 coat of Nuit Blanche layered over 2 coats of Nuit Noire (as on the last three swatches shown below), you achieve what I call 'accidental galaxy nails'. This combination looks even more spectacular in person, as you can clearly appreciate every single nuance and prismatic flash. The depth of tone achieved from layering these two, is nothing short of hypnotic to behold – I need to stop here, because I've run out of superlatives. No more words for the love (also, this combo is smooth to the touch with a layer of top coat).

Black & White – a theme that transcends time and fashion, and yet YSL Beauté manages to reinvent these two standard shades with the addition of glitter and flakes. Nuit Blanche is one of those lacquers that will leave you mesmerized simply holding the bottle in your hand (the snow globe effect), and I guarantee that you'll want to layer it over EVERYTHING just to see the colour shift it gives. Nuit Noire has a quieter presence, until the light catches on the glitter pieces and just like that, it morphs into something elegant and feral at the same time. Verdict? Both are just spectacular and so well worth picking up.

YSL Beauté | Collector Palette Lumière de Jour
For Spring 2015, Yves Saint Laurent Beauté introduces the Désir de Jour Collection, inspired by the Luis Buñel cult-classic film 'Belle de Jour' featuring the iconic beauty of Catherine Deneuve, a woman with an outwardly cooly demure appearance, but filled with passionate undercurrents – a sentiment that is perfectly captured by the colours of this collection. One of the star pieces, the Collector Palette Lumière de Jour (CAN $55.00 exclusive to The Bay), is a softly hued pressed face powder that not only assists in setting your makeup, but will help provide you with a touch of that certain je ne sais quoi, bien sûr.

Collector Palette Lumière de Jour | The exterior of the iconic gold YSL compact has been jazzed up here with a coat of white prismatic sequins, along with a black band bearing the brand's 'Casandre' logo down the middle. The powder (which is also embossed with the same logo) is a soft pink hue that leans neither too cool nor warm, thus making it a universally flattering shade, and displays an exceptionally fine shimmer that is not only an overspray, but carried through all layers.
Similar in concept to the way the Guerlain Météorites products perform, the Lumière de Jour Palette is a finely milled face powder that is designed to add a final touch to your makeup, setting everything in place. The glow it imparts to the skin is very hard to pin down and accurately capture in photographs; with my swatches below, I had to apply it with a very heavy hand in order to get it to appear – the general idea, however, is that you're NOT supposed to see the powder at the surface level of your skin, in any case. The pink hue of the powder works well to add an overall brightness to the face, but again, the key word here is 'subtle' – in other words and unless your complexion is on the darker side of the spectrum, it applies as more of a sheer-invisible veil, than a wash of colour. The ultra fine texture of this powder is non-chalky and I experience no dust storm effect when swirling my brush through it, all of which help it buff easily into the skin for a seamless and flawless look. With regards to staying power, that's difficult to say, due to the overall colourless nature of the powder, but I found that it seemed to warm up with the wearing and meld with my skin's natural oils, but somehow still prevented my face from appearing too shiny by day's end (even though it's not touted as a mattifying powder) making touchups unnecessary.

This is a lovely powder and one that is quite easy to use; its ultra-fine texture and universally flattering shade make it ideal for a variety of skin tones, and does an amazing job of giving your skin that 'lit-from-within' radiance, and will have people asking you if you've had 'something done'. From my understanding, the Lumière de Jour Palette is exclusive to The Bay here in Canada – I'm not certain if any retailers elsewhere will be carrying it, but if you happen to find out, let me know.

Yves Saint Laurent Beauté | Volupté Tint-In-Oil
A few weeks ago, I was invited to take part in the YSL x Google Glass experience (you can read about it here) and while that in itself was pretty amazing, for a beauty aficionado like myself, seeing the YSL Spring 2015 Collection up close and personal, was an even bigger thrill. The latest innovation from YSL Beauté and the first of its kind in the beauty world, is Volupté Tint-In-Oil (CAN $35.00, available in 8 shades), a unique new lip oil that is infused with tint that provides all the nourishing benefits of a balm, but with the beautifying effects of colour.
Housed in sleek chrome tubes belted with the YSL 'Cassandre' logo (this band also displays the colour of each individual shade for your convenience), the contents are kept cocooned away from light in order to preserve their integrity. The 'bouche à bouche' diamond-shaped & angled applicator with its soft texture and mini-reservoir at the centre, has been designed to help dispense a perfect hit of product in one simple swipe, almost making it intuitive in terms of application ease – no mirror required. Adding to the sensorial experience, is a delicious mango scent (although it reminds me more of watermelon candies), which is so uplifting mood-wise.
According to the brand, there are two facets to this unique new formula:
Although oil and tint naturally repel each other, YSL Beauté has conceived of a way for opposites to attract – compelling these two ingredients to work effectively as one. COLOUR LINK INFUSER is an ultra-stabilizing technology developed by YSL Beauté for its ability to disperse and homogeneously solubilize colour particles in oil to create a hybrid formula. The colour pigments are captured within the oils to dispense an ever-evolving burst of liquid lip colour. The oils slowly disappear but the pop of colour stays true.
Apricot Kernel Oil, Macadamia Seed Oil, Coriander Fruit Oil, Jojoba Seed Oil, Passion Flower Oil
The precious Passion Flower has been well-documented as having invaluable nutritive properties. Historically cultivated in the Majorelle Garden in Morocco (a place so dear to M. Yves saint Laurent's heart and one of his prime sources of inspiration), this flower blooms only in daylight and fades by nightfall, waiting for the energizing light of the sun to come again.
Another interesting feature of the Volupté Tint-In-Oil, is the 'bitten-lips/stain' effect they leave behind, a colour that will be unique to each and every user. The colour tint that is parcelled within the oils, awakens on contact with the lips and then proceeds to interact the the lip tone, in effect creating one's own bespoke colour finish. The tint itself evolves with the wearing, becoming more vibrant minutes after initial application, enhancing your lips with a natural glow.

From start to finish, it's LOVE; to begin with, the packaging is über-elegant and just begs to be taken out in public. The applicator truly is goof-proof and as the Tint-In-Oil formula is not colour saturated, you really don't need a mirror for application (as well, the tint of each shade does not stain surrounding skin, in the event you 'colour outside the lines', so to speak). The magic begins immediately upon application, starting with a rich nourishing sensation of the oil upon the lips, a feeling that's neither oily, too slick, or sticky – just ultra comfortable and hydrating, and one that seems to fill in lip lines as well (my lips are quite lined, and I was amazed to see how diminished said lines appear). Within a few minutes, you can see and feel a few other changes; there's a slight tingling I sense which is not unpleasant for me (anyone with sensitivities, should definitely test these out at a counter first) and then the colour begins intensifying. Lasting power is on par for a gloss (I get between 2.5 – 3.5 hours), although that is also affected by food, drink, etc. and even when the glossiness has faded, I am still left with a slight stain on my lips (intensity of stain will vary with each individual shade), along with a completely hydrated feel.
N°2 Oh So Gold – the lightest of the 3 shown, warm-leaning with a light apricot tint and iridescent gold shimmer (non-gritty)
N°4 I Rose You – carnation pink, perfect mix of cool & warm undertones making it wearable by a broad range of skintones, iridescent pink shimmer
N°5 Cherry My Chérie – lush true pink, the most intense of the 3, leaves behind a hint of shimmer along with tint upon the lips. According to my press sheet, this is the 'Star Shade' of this collection, iridescent pink shimmer
"Volupté Tint-In-Oil is ultra-comfortable with a soothing feeling on the lips. It's more like a liquid lip balm than a gloss or a stain. It creates volume and erases texture on the lips with a beautiful shine.
It's great for people who might be afraid of colour, as it's super natural. Balms, glosses and stains generally tend to achieve only one effect rather than several effects together. Volupté Tint-In-Oil perfectly combines colour, shine, and absolute comfort"
Lloyd Simmonds, Creative Director Makeup YSL Beauté

Mark my words, you're going to start seeing all brands – from luxury to mass market – begin releasing their own version of YSL Beauté's Volupté Tint-In-Oil, although I sincerely doubt anyone can match the utter gorgeousness seen here. In general, I enjoy the convenience of using lipgloss, but reapplication is a chore and more often than not, my lips wind up feeling parched after it's worn off. That being said, I experience none of these issues with any of these Tint-In-Oil shades, although N°2 Oh So Gold only left a mere whisper of a stain to my lips – perfect for fans of a more natural looking mouth. As pink lip shades fall out of my comfort zone, I was stunned by how much I loved the look of N°5 Cherry My Cherie; both upon application, and again with the stain it left behind – reminded me of the way my lips would look after devouring a pink PopSicle. Come to think of it, one reason I used to love those treats, was exactly because of the way they stained my lips – early signs of a budding beauty fiend, perhaps?
How perfect are these for Valentine's Day? Even the applicator seems to be in on the theme! ♥

One other capability for new machines is TCG Opal SED drive technology, if what you are after is speed in securely wiping data. First off the drive can be encrypted for data at rest so there is no fear of someone mounting and reading it in the first place. But when they can't even see the partition table it makes it quite hard to mount it in the first place. Then you can just flip a single bit in the drives key and instantly everything in that region is wiped to the equivalent of AES256. The only way to recover it is to set the password back before the drive is reinitialized for some other purpose. You can even set up multiple regions, write or read protect them individually, install a fake (shadow) partition table, or even lock any of them to a pcr in the hardware TPM so partitions are unusable or even non-visible unless the machine was booted exactly in your own prescribed manor. Need to hide your banking data from ransomware anyone?
A case in point, I once bought an HP/WinME (pls don't ask) machine that came with some undocumented extra software that I didn't ask for, no surprise. The actual purpose of this "keyboard driver" system service was to keep any dialup session active, by pinging a particular IP address. That address was assigned to a company (not the Mfg or even software author) and that company had necessarily black-holed that particular IP address, which could not be changed. My firewall would light up every so often because of probing packets and ICMP coming back from that domain in response to this software on my machine doing really stupid things. I could not turn this feature off without hacking my own machine to remove this system service. Funny how removing a system service keyboard driver has absolutely no effect on using the machine, who would have guessed. In hind sight, I can not blame that company for scanning me because in their eyes I was the intruder, constantly pinging them.
If you are sure that none of that is the case, and you really don't want to disable your fw scan detection then this is what I would do. Make a copy of one of their scans and print it. Write a letter for a cease and desist and address it to their legal department, and sent it via certified USPS mail. If that does not get action then I would seriously consider turning that feature off.
Oh, and remember that their stock market reporting and analysis services are completely non-biased. What could go wrong?

"(Benny's playing)... it's enough to snap your head around." - The Chicago Reader.com
Twenty years after Benny Green recorded Bass Face at Kuumbwa, marking his debut as a talented young pianist with the legendary Ray Brown Trio, he returns to record again, this time as the leader of his own trio. His long-time drummer, Kenny Washington, a respected "keeper of the hard bop flame," and ace bassist David Wong, demonstrate a flair for tasteful swinging that burns brightly under Green's own flawless, two-handed technique and imaginative, one-of-a-kind improvisations. Green's keyboard genius has accompanied the vocal artistry of Betty Carter, served in the ranks of Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, and, ultimately, replaced the great Gene Harris in bassist Ray Brown's trio. Don't miss this milestone two-day event culminating in a Live at Kuumbwa CD!

Mechanism of explosions and plasma jets associated with sunspot formation revealed
September 30, 2015
Naional Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ)
Institute of Space and Astronautical Science / Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (ISAS/JAXA)
Lockheed Martin Solar and Astrophysics Laboratory (LMSAL)
[Details of Research]
First, they analyzed the satellite observation data and determined the detailed magnetic structures of the pores and bridge as well as the mechanism for the explosions and jet ejections (Fig. 2). High-resolution observations of the surface magnetic fields by Hinode revealed that the two merging pores have strong, vertical magnetic fields while the sandwiched light bridge harbors weak, horizontal fields. In addition, IRIS observations of the atmosphere above the light bridge showed that explosions and jet ejections take place repeatedly and intermittently as a result of magnetic reconnection. This means that the horizontal fields of the bridge repeatedly snap and establish new connections with the vertical fields of the surrounding pores. This results in sudden, repetitive bursts of activity (explosions and jet ejections).
What drives the formation of the light bridge and the misalignment between adjacent magnetic fields? The team answered this question with the help of NASA's Pleiades supercomputer. Their computer model showed how streams of magnetism in the solar interior bursts onto the surface of the Sun. The emerging magnetic flux first appears as small bundles, but self-organizes into larger conglomerates to eventually form a sunspot. The model reproduces the light bridge and pores found in the observations (see Fig. 3) and offers the following explanation. As two walls of magnetic flux approach each other during sunspot formation, plasma with weaker magnetic fields is sandwiched between the walls. As this trapped material is squeezed, it appears as a light bridge at the surface (see Figs. 4 and 5). The magnetic field of this trapped plasma is misaligned relative to the neighboring strong fields, which results in magnetic reconnection causing repeated eruptions and plasma jets (see Fig. 6).

Superb article. My husband's taken this political race and its results
pretty hard. I remind him that, hey, this nation's seen plenty of bad times
(and screwy presidents) and managed to survive. Now, more than ever, we need to
rely on Christ's leaders here on earth. They will help us to prepare for
what comes and help us find true "hope and change".
And hey, if the world -is- going to end, that's not necessarily a bad thing...unless you're wicked. ^w^

Good article. I think it is fair to say that Pres. Hinckley and Pres. Monson
can both be characterized as optimists. Certainly not folks who stick their
head in the sand or who are unaware of the problems around them. But they still
see the good in people even while they wrestle with the various issues of the
day. They then push to make things better.
Those of us who are Latter-day Saints should take our cues from them. Engage with the world and work our hardest to make it better. Leave despair for another day. It will always be there should we wish to go back to it.

Firstly a great artical, it reminds me that in so many respects we make a choice
everyday whether we look to the sky or the mud.
My wife recently had a discussion with a person that has suffered racism. He indicated to overcome racism we must overcome the racist in ourselves, then help our family overcome the racist in themselves before helping those around us.
Remember Mathew "Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy". The world will not come to an end due to an election. Humanity as we know it will come to an end in Heavenly Father's time.

Where did four decades go, and how did they slip away so quickly? This summer, the Villa Maria Academy class of 1973 celebrates its 40th reunion. In the past couple of weeks, I have seen and heard from a lot of folks from my class. Some I see on Facebook. I ran into Marilyn McLaughlin…

Murali Vijay
An opening batsman who can be devastating on his day. He went 18 months without playing a Test before scoring back-to-back 150s following his recall in the 2013 series against Australia. Has not made a Test hundred since, though, with his top score of 97 coming in the Boxing Day Test versus South Africa.
At times the stroke-playing opener has been very good, though an overall Test average of 38 doesn't really do him justice. He is, however, living proof of the value of a second chance – his first stab at Test cricket was unsuccessful; his second, which came when India regenerated their team after defeat to England in 2012-13,
has been a hit. Made 146 in first Test v England at Trent Bridge at start of 2014 Investec Series.

In the Choices theme, I can't find a way to change portfolio items author?
Could you help, please?
Hi Bruno,
The portfolio post type doesn't have support for authors so it needs to be added in. Open includes>admin>register-portfolio.php and look for:
'supports' => array('title','thumbnail','excerpt','editor','comments')
then change it to:
'supports' => array('title','author','thumbnail','excerpt','editor','comments')
That will give the custom post type author support.

what a shame that movies won't be shown here anymore in the rutherford area until the 26 screen theater opens soon near the meadowlands.
I miss drive-ins…even though i never been to one. My dad used to go to this place all the time…
The organ i believe was in the central auditorium. The employees of the theater were very nice.
I doubt that this theater will survive even if Clifton Commons gets renovated by AMC soon…
I always liked the exterior of the place.
Was this the first movie theater ever built in Montclair?
i hope someone buys it since the competition is the NJPac in Newark.
Was this General Cinema's flagship theater in NJ at the time?
according to the THX website, no theaters in NJ including this one are certified anymore. The closest one i can think of is in Franklin Mills, PA.
long before megaplexes started showing indie movies such as AMC, this theater was one of the few in NJ to screen such fare along with the Screening Zone and to a lesser extent, the Bellevue theater. The Wellmont also showed some indie movies before it became a concert hall.
go to the arclight, DonSolosan.
must be the economy. remember when AMC was rolling out every theater with the Sony 4k projectors from 2009 until 2012…that was a slow rollout. Ditto that for dolby atmos and the amc renovations.
according to the thx website, this theater was delisted from the website recently.
i agree on palisades parking. The imax was my second favorite imax that was near an AMC/Loews theater in the New York area. it's been 15 years since i went there….recently walked by there when Inception played there. RIP real imax at palisades…
just noticed at this theater after i saw avengers in fake 3d that they installed coke freestyle machines near the snack bar. About time.
http://www.wbaltv.com/news/vandal-smashes-senator-theater-window/32590714 what a shame….
Tickets for the first showing of avengers in Imax 3d already sold out…
corporate synergy…
Maybe they'll do it when the new star wars movie comes out….
http://www.thefreelibrary.com/AMC+Empire+25+Fully+Restored+From+Its+Original+Format+to+Open+in…-a060057377 here's a video on the process of moving the historic theater so that the screens were built.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DHCBAc8Fow
saw furious 7 in regular and thought the movie was well done. Very loud and fast paced action. The cinematography was very sharp. This movie will have legs.
Looks like there have been a rash of breakins at this place…
Looks like amc will rebrand their prime and etx theatres as dolby cinema by the end of 2024….including the etx screen here.

I am so sad that this had came to an end. I love this hole show and every one in it. The story is just amazing. But we all knew it had to come to an end some day, and I honestly think that it was time. The way they ended it was perfect, Stevie being grown up, Silas and Shane in they're own life's. I honestly have to say from the first episode Andy was in I always say Nancy and Andy getting married. But they ended it amazing! R.I.P Weeds in witch you will always be missed. I will watch this series over and over for the rest of my life<3

I need to replace a path stored in an Oracle DB text field. However paths have been specified with different cases (ie MYPATH, MyPath, Mypath, mypath). When using a combination of
REPLACE and
UPPER, it does not work as I need it to, ie:
UPDATE Actions
SET Destination = REPLACE(UPPER(Destination), 'MYPATH', 'My_New_Path')
This does the replace but leaves everything in upper case - even for the rows where there is nothing to replace
MyPath\FileName - AFTER:

What I really need is to replace any occurrence of MyPath, regardless of the case to My_New_Path, without touching the casing on other rows or other part of the field
Any ideas? I have been scratching my head to no avail...

What are the dangers of premature ventricular contractions?
Premature ventricular contractions in healthy individuals without high blood pressure and heart diseases do not pose any health risks. Premature ventricular contractions in patients with heart diseases (heart attacks, heart failure, diseases of the heart valves) may be associated with increased risks of developing ventricular tachycardia. Ventricular tachycardia is a sustained run of rapid ventricular contractions. Ventricular tachycardia is life-threatening because: 1) it occurs suddenly with no prior warning, and 2) it frequently develops into ventricular fibrillation. Ventricular fibrillation is a chaotic rhythm where the ventricles quiver rapidly in a purposeless fashion. The heart with ventricular fibrillation cannot pump blood effectively to the brain and the rest of the body. If untreated, ventricular fibrillation can be fatal within minutes. An estimated 325,000 Americans die from sudden cardiac arrest, including ventricular fibrillation, each year. Many doctors believe that premature ventricular contractions do not necessarily cause ventricular tachycardias or ventricular fibrillations. Instead, premature ventricular contractions may be merely indicators (symptoms) of serious heart diseases or other serious conditions such as hypokalemia, hypoxia, and ongoing heart damage from heart attacks, or medications such as digoxin and aminophylline toxicity. It must be emphasized that many premature ventricular contractions are harmless (benign) and not associated with structural heart disease. If the workup for underlying heart disease is unrevealing, the patient can be assured that their prognosis is excellent. Continue Reading

Skip to comments.Book: Burnett received message from God (Flight 93)
Posted on 07/10/2006 9:41:05 AM PDT by ButThreeLeftsDo
The widow of Tom Burnett, who helped lead the passenger revolt on hijacked Flight 93, says in a new book that he had struggled to figure out what he believed was a message from God that might have presaged the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
Deena Burnett wrote that a year before the attacks, her husband, who rarely spoke openly about his faith, told her he'd been attending Mass daily to try to understand a message from God that had "something to do with the White House."
He told her he hadn't figured it out, "but I know it will impact a great number of people," she wrote in her book, "Fighting Back: Living Life Beyond Ourselves."
She wrote that she had taken it as a good sign.
"God must have had a good chuckle that day," Burnett wrote, "because my response was, 'He wants you to run for president."'
Tom Burnett died in the crash of the United Airlines flight in rural Pennsylvania. The plane went down 20 minutes short of the hijackers' presumed target, either the U.S. Capitol or the White House.
In her book, Deena Burnett, of Little Rock, Ark., wrote about her four cell phone conversations with her husband during the hijacking, which culminated with her husband's assurance that he was "going to do something" to thwart the hijackers.
She also wrote that when she and other Flight 93 families were invited to the White House two weeks after the attacks, she asked President Bush for access to the plane's cockpit voice recording.
Burnett wrote that Bush replied: "I can see why you would want to. They sure were heroes on that flight."
When she and the rest of the Burnett family got to hear the tape in 2002, they heard intense fighting and the clatter of dishes outside the cockpit. Then they heard an American voice shouting: "In the cockpit. In the cockpit."
It was "clearly, unmistakably" Tom's voice, Burnett wrote.
She also disclosed that she got remarried last month, to Little Rock businessman Rodney Bailey. She said he would have wanted her to remarry so their three girls would have two parents.
She also said she has been approached about running for the U.S. House or for Arkansas lieutenant governor, but that she wasn't likely to attempt any run before her girls are grown.
She attributes her husband's strong character and deep Catholic faith to his upbringing in the Minneapolis suburb of Bloomington, where his father was a high school English and literature teacher and his mother sold real estate.
He was a star quarterback at Jefferson High School, won admission to the Air Force Academy, later transferred to St. John's University in Collegeville, and, after a shoulder injury ended his football career, switched to the University of Minnesota. He attended graduate school at Pepperdine University before going to work for medical technology companies.
"Fighting Back" was co-written by Minneapolis public relations man Anthony Giombetti. It's published by Advantage Books, which specializes in inspirational, faith-based books.
Thank you.
Another book I'm going to have to add to my "must read" list.
When the word gets out on this book, I think it's going to be massive.
I hope so. People need to read/hear something besides the strident whine of the left and to be reminded that we WERE once a different nation. This book sounds like it may be that reminder.
Any good ping lists?
Nyer, you might be interested in this.

thanks, bump!
Thanks for your ping-ability!!
Thanks for the ping, kayak.
Mr. Burnett attended the same college as my husband and son, St. John's University.
I am intrigued by his becoming a daily Mass attendant before his death and how his faith may have helped him on that fatal flight.
I will read the book to find out more.
Chills ... she is an outstanding woman ..unwavering, radiating faith and righteous conviction. God bless her. I'm happy she's found smiles again. Thanks, O.
Very uplifting. I'm so glad she's remarried and been able to find some peace as well as a father to her children.
What an amazing story. Thanks for the ping, Karen.

Thank you for the ping DC.
Thanks for the ping, Dolly.
My husband & I visited the Flight 93 Temporary Memorial in Oct. 2004. We were both moved to tears by the sacrifice of those brave passengers and crew who won the first battle in the War on Terror.
May they rest in peace. And may their families be comforted in the knowledge that they will forever have the love and gratitude of all Americans.
Ping to my Flight 93 list......
Thanks for the ping.
Sounds like it should be a really good read!

A mechanism for the control of the heel-off to toe-off motion of a dynamic biped gait is presented. It is argued that the reaction force between the ground and the biped foot is an important factor in a satisfactory implementation of dynamic gait. This force must be properly controlled while the foot is in the heel-off to toe-off phase. Since the foot rolls over the ground surface in this phase and the global description of the surface is unknown, the foot has to execute a nonholonomic constraint motion. The formulations of nonholonomic constraints and system dynamics under the constraints are derived for the roll-over motion. A feedback control mechanism is designed based on the formulations. The formulation and the feedback control mechanism are applied to a four-link biped model. Successful simulation results of the heel-off to toe-off motion prove that the formulation and control mechanism are valid for the nonholonomically constrained motion of the biped
