Opens: Butterfly
Weight: 2.5 oz.
Handle Length: 3.5 inches
This very affordable Feather Double-Edge Razor is more than up to the task of providing you with a great shave at a great price. The combination of modern polymers, durable stainless steel and chrome-plated brass all contribute to the enjoyment of using this razor for a long time to come.
The razor combines perfect balance with an extra-long, non-slip plastic handle that provides both secure handling and easy maneuverability. The resulting shave quality is nothing short of surprising.
This razor uses standard, double-edge blades that can be easily loaded through the "missile silo" or "butterfly" doors on the shave head. And there's no razor disassembly required!
The Feather Double-Edge Razor comes in its own clamshell case that can be used for storage or travel. It also includes two (2) Feather "Hi Stainless" blades to get you started. Feather blade refills (recommended) are available separately.

"Great Razor !!"
Price Value Quality
Anyway, after a good three weeks of not shaving for the No Shave November, the razor & featherlite blade gave me no problem. And the blade had already been used for five or so shaves before the growth came off !!
Will probably update to a chrome razor this year.
Lastly, this razor has spoiled me so that I will only use a butterfly razor.
"good razor for any one"

I have yet to hear a bad review about it. It is good for the beginner or the one who has been wet shaving for years. If i had to say one con about it, it would be the the lightness of it. Overall 4 stars.

Some of the complaints I hear about this razor have to do with the fact that it's handle is primarily plastic. To that I say, so what? My Glock is plastic and I have full faith in it.
However, because it is plastic, it looses some of the weight a stainless steel or a heavier material razor would carry. Its light weight makes it very forgiving though. If your new to this type of shaving- this razor will probably not carve your neck up like a Thanksgiving turkey- unless you're deliberately trying to do so!
If you've never used a DE safety razor before, but are looking to ditch your cartridge razor (trust me, you neck will thank you later), the Feather is the perfect place to start.
I plan on upgrading my razor soon, but I will never get rid of my Feather. I look at is a valuable grooming essential. It'll just simply be demoted to a back-up/travel razor.

Meatloaf is one of those things it's not hard to do badly, and we've all had the brown mush that proves it, the kind that blends enough vague ingredients to create an end product bearing no resemblance to real food. Try one bad enough, and you'll never want to eat it again, I know. That's probably why, until last weekend, I'd have been completely happy to live the rest of my life without it. I'd stick to things I could recognize, thank you very much. But that has all changed. Hear me out: now that I've tasted how good a meatloaf can be---how crazy, crazy good it can be---I know I would have been severely missing out. I was wrong. I was blind. And before you make a similar mistake, try this turkey loaf, which uses ground turkey rather than ground beef to make a flavorful, moist, glazed kind of meatloaf unlike any I've had before. Seriously? It's enough to redeem the food forever, for all mankind. … [Read more...]

Where can you watch the old seasons?
Friday Night Lights
Walking Dead
Sons of Anarchy
Breaking Bad
Prison Break

Walking Dead again cuz its so ****ing awesome
Hopefully he turns into a second round pick from someone via trade. We still have 4-6 years easily from Eli.
Awesome. Eagles get 3rd best tackle at number 4. I'm happy with that
You guys watching NFL network or ESPN?
I'm actually hoping they pick Te'o. He's a great leader with something to prove. I might be the only one in here
One minor problem I have with Kobe. Spell the words all the way out on twitter. It's a great example to the youth that's following him.
How in the world is the Broncos game not prime time?
The Marshawn Lynch run is by far the greatest play I have ever seen
Tied for 2nd and missed 2 thursday night picks? I'll take it! Good job ajordan you should do the season picks here in vegas you can win a house!
We don't have to go to Denver, Green Bay or Seattle that's awesome. I'll be at that Charger game!!
Colts Redskins
9 months is a real long time..
Just wanted to say congrats to the Redskins and their fans. They've been the doormat in the division long enough and couldn't be any happier to see them knock off the Cowboys. Good luck next week!
Only brightside i'm looking at is no Cowboys in the playoffs. Good for the Redskins
Glad to see the Redskins in the playoffs. They've been the doormat in our division long enough. No Cowboys in the playoffs so I can't complain

Functional demands of dynamic biological adhesion: an integrative approach

Climbing organisms are constantly challenged to make their way rapidly and reliably across varied and often novel terrain. A diversity of morphologically and mechanically disparate attachment strategies have evolved across widely distributed phylogenetic groups to aid legged animals in scaling these surfaces, notable among them some very impressive adhesive pads. Despite the differences between, for example, the dry fibrillar pads of geckos and the smooth, secretion-aided pads of stick insects, I hypothesize that they face similar functional demands in their environment. I outline three broad criteria defining dynamic biological adhesion: reusability, reversibility, and substrate tolerance. Organismal adhesive pads must be able to attach repeatedly without significant decline in performance, detach easily at will, and adhere strongly to the broadest possible range of surfaces in their habitat. A survey of the literature suggests that evidence for these general principles can be found in existing research, but that many gaps remain to be filled. By taking a comparative, integrative approach to biological dynamic adhesion, rather than focusing on a few model organisms, investigators will continue to discover new and interesting attachment strategies in natural systems.

Sneak Peak – Versace For H&M Spring 2012. The First Versace For H&M collection was such a success, that they're bring back another one just in time for spring and summer fashion. We'll have to get through the winter first in order to truly enjoy it, but in the mean time here's a sneak peak at whats to come. For the girls that have a fun and funky style, the collection features many different prints, including fruit printed bikinis and shorts. We've also seen a pair of sexy gold strappy heels as well. Perfect for showing off those summer legs. As of right now the collection will only be available to countries with H&M online sales starting in Jan 2012. Which means Ebay will be the best place for U.S. fashionistas since our online site won't be available until Fall 2012. Look below to see a sneak peak of the collection.

For many, housing assistance is the only way they can afford a decent place to live. But a growing waiting list is leaving the Housing Office straining to keep up.
"The waiting list is growing, but the budget isn't," said Housing Administrator Patty Hamm. "We're still taking the same number of applications a month."
Hamm said the Housing Office, which falls under the city of Amarillo's Department of Community Development, received a little more than $7 million for 2005-2006. That amount of money has stayed relatively the same, but the way the money is allocated has changed.
"We're six months into our fiscal year, which starts in October, and we still don't know how much money we'll have for this year," Hamm said. "That's the way that Congress does business. It took them until February to get their appropriations finalized."
Hamm said the funding used to be allocated per unit. For example, the funding would cover the cost of renting 1,409 units for one year. Now, the money is given out in one lump sum, turning funding into a guessing game.
"Now, they're saying, 'You only have this much money and you figure out how many units you can lease out,' " Hamm said. "It used to be, 'We'll cover you for this number of units no matter how much it will cost.' "
Hamm calls the new way "tricky."
"You don't know how big your families are going to be, whether they are going to be working, what number of bedrooms they'll need. Trying to budget that is tricky. You just keep your fingers crossed," she said.
Hamm said that a short time ago the Housing Office had its waiting list down to 18 months, but now it's back up to a two-year period.
"Last year, we went through a period where we had slots open and we were able to work our way down the waiting list. Now we're full. The turnover for people getting off the program has slowed down," Hamm said.
She said the Housing Office is helping slightly more than the 1,409 families it is funded to assist. She expects to be back to that number by May as people leave the program and end their assistance.
A relatively new program for the Housing Office is the Homeownership Program. It doles out money every month to pay part of participants' mortgages rather than their rent.
"If somebody has the wherewithal to hold a job and has cleaned up their credit where they can qualify for a mortgage, well, good for them," Hamm said. "Hopefully, we can wean them off the assistance by the time the assistance ends."
The standard period is 10 years, Hamm said, unless the participant is disabled.
One person working hard toward home ownership is 26-year-old Peggy Lawless. Lawless was pregnant with her third child when she went through a divorce and found herself staying at a women's shelter. There, she was placed on a waiting list for assistance.
Four and a half years later, Lawless is working toward owning her own home and is participating in the Housing Office's Self-Sufficiency Program.
"My goal is to be a homeowner," Lawless said. "I'm working on getting my credit fixed, and then I can start with the home-buying process."
Hamm said participants have to sign a five-year contract agreeing to meet certain goals and be off any kind of welfare assistance by the end of five years. Participants also learn things like budgeting, how to keep and maintain good credit and they must set up a savings account.
Participants also can set up an escrow account.
"For instance, if their earned income goes up and their portion of the rent goes from $100 to $200 a month, then we take the $100 they're saving us and put it into an escrow account," Hamm said.
That money can be used for things like making a down payment on a house or going to school.
Lawless said being in the program gives her something to look forward to.
"When you're on HUD, you're on HUD and you can be on that for 15 or 20 years. But when you're on the Home Ownership Program, you're looking at owning your own home and it gives you something to look forward to," she said. "I think it would just be wonderful; it would be a big relief. The kids would have somewhere where they know they're going to come home and grow up. I never thought that I would be this close."
Violence Against Women Act :
Some recent changes have been put into action for the 1994 Violence Against Women Act. The act protects domestic violence victims (men or women) from being evicted due to criminal activity, specifically domestic violence, dating violence or stalking, committed by a member of the victim's household, guest or other. The tenant, though, has to be willing to cooperate with police. For example, if a woman was on housing assistance and her estranged husband broke into her house, the landlord can't evict the woman as long as she is willing to cooperate with police

Independent Conference or Delaware Independent School Conference?[edit]
I'm looking for sources but for the time being I'm with Elpiseos on the name of the conference (i.e., it's just "Independent Conference"). I didn't want to start a revert war in the article itself. Anyone got any way to settle this? B.S. Lawrence (talk) 17:28, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
- I've reverted this age-old move. I went to one of the DISC schools, and I never heard it referred to as anything but DISC, which not incidentally is what the school websites call it. There is some degree of confusion perhaps arising out of the occasional shorthand at the News-Journal and the fact that different situations apply to some sports and that the way schools compete at different levels often follows completely different patterns. For example I see references to an "Independent Conference Tournament" in wrestling, but when I look at the participants it includes schools from outside DISC. If someone can come up with a source that uses the name ISC and lists the correct set of schools, then maybe we can talk. Tower Hill's website lists the correct membership and gives DISC as the name, and at this point it's the most definitive source. Mangoe (talk) 02:06, 14 March 2014 (UTC)

After more than a month filled with uncertainly, it looks as if Disney's Lone Ranger may ride again after all.
The studio, concerned by the underwhelming opening of Cowboys & Aliens, pulled the reins on the rumored $275 million Western in mid-August, leading producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Gore Verbinski to slash costs. They reportedly gave up $10 million of their fees as part of an effort to reduce the budget to somewhere in the $215 million range, lower than the $220 million compromise figure but higher than the $200 million Disney really wanted. The deal with star Johnny Depp was apparently reworked as well.
Now Deadline contends the financial issues are expected to be resolved by next week, meaning the studio can begin rehiring the crew to start production by January or February. It seems highly unlikely that the film, which stars Depp as Tonto and Armie Hammer as the Lone Ranger, will be able to hit its original Dec. 21, 2012, opening date. But where it will fall on the Disney calendar remains to be seen.
Depp still playing Tonto I see. That's an instant "no thanks" from me.
While I'm happy that they're actually making a Lone Ranger film with a decent budget (god knows WHY you'd need 210 million – did they not see True Grit? 40 million budget, brilliant film) I'm still apprehensive over the "Wild, Wild West" undertones and the rumours of an emphasis on Tonto and NOT the LR himself. If they make LR the bumbling fool with Tonto as the real hero I'll be pretty disapointed.
Yeah Depp playing Tonto is B.S. He doesn't need it and there's got to be plenty of Native actors out there to play the part.
They better deliver a damn good movie, then. Not just Pirates On Horseback. BTW: Depp as Tonto doesn't bother me as long as he doesn't camp it up, he is part Cherokee.
If President Obama can be the First African-American President despite being only mixed race, and not actually African American, then Depp with "a Native American great-grandmother" can play Tonto (who was, btw a fictional Native American, it's not like Depp's up for the role of Chief Joseph or something here).
The thing here is Obama looks African-American and Depp looks about as Indian as he does Chinese.
As long as Depp doesn't play "Captain Tonto Sparrow" in this film, I'm fine with it. I don't hate Depp as an actor and I actually think he's pretty good depending on the role.
I like The Lone Ranger, and it's Disney so it should be in good hands. Let's just hope they don't bork it up like Hollywood did with Green Hornet.
"If they make LR the bumbling fool with Tonto as the real hero I'll be
pretty disapointed"
Just like his grand-nephew, The Green Hornet… ;-(

As the storm continues to exit the area, conditions will continue to improve. Some lingering snow and blowing snow will exist over north and northeast El Paso County, but the main storm impacts are headed east. Clearing will also take place for some of us tonight, and that means a very cold start to the day on Friday. Roads will be slick and the commute will be slow. However, the bulk of the day should be much better than the past two days.
The nicer day Friday paves the way for a great weekend. Enjoy the nice weather while it lasts...

Quick & easy, too ~ How much better can that be! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my swapmates in the Aus/NZ Recipe Swap #33]
I love rice, and I thought this was just fantastic. Very citrusy and tasty. The recipe states that it serves 6-8, but it was just enough to serve my family of 5 (with no leftovers). Thanks for sharing your recipe, susie cooks. Made for "New Kids On The Block" tag game.

Securing Network Access with 802.1X, Radius, and LDAP
The Radius protocol is typically used to authenticate users in dial-up scenarios. But Radius is also useful in LAN environments: in combination with 802.1X, Radius forces users to authenticate at a low level before the switch opens up a port.
Attacks from internal networks are dangerous and more difficult to prevent than external attacks. An attacker who plugs in to an internal network with a laptop gains wide-ranging access to network data. One way of preventing an attack is to implement an authentication function in OSI Layer 2 using the 802.1X [1] protocol. An 802.1X-capable switch and a Freeradius server are all you need to implement Layer 2 authentication. Because Layer 2 authentication operates at the level of the local, physical network, it prevents an intruder from even using the physical network without authentication. Radius (Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service Protocol) responses from a Linux server typically include the IP address and standard gateway for the user, but the protocol has more potential. You can use a Radius server to assign a VLAN to the user's switch port. This technique avoids the need for a complex router infrastructure, but still restricts the size of the broadcast domain.

Break The Boxes! This is Part 1 of 5 for the Time Travel EP from dead prez. The EP was executive produced by M1 of dead prez. The story began in Tallahassee when I met Tr!x (@TheMrPatel)who is the guy doing the hook. This version was produced by Precision (@PrecisionAMG) as was the original version of Time Travel which appeared on dead prez' latest album 'Information Age' (Boss Up / SoundWeapon / Krian Music Group)(released 2/13). The first person to feature on the song was Reek Da Villian (@reekdavillian)who murdered it. Big shout out to The Conglomerate!! I'm glad this RBG collaboration could happen. Next came Bun B (@BunBTrillOG)who in our minds when we were first mixing the song. Shout out to Houston, TX and DJ Zin. Busta Rhymes (@BustaRhymes) makes me proud to be doing music today. It is an honor to have finally linked on a tune from dead prez which fit him perfectly. He did what he does best, mash it up! Thank you comrade. Conglomerate Family! Dee-1, for those who haven't heard, is one of New Orlean's finest m.c.'s. His narrative about hip hop is classic on this song. I memorized from the first time I heard it. MC Fre I (from Duo Live)from Brooklyn, is one of the greatest m.c.'s I've ever met. And Lastly, Black Thought of powerhouse band The Roots makes his appearance on the song and steals the show.

TEMPLE (AP) - One person was killed and two people were injured Sunday when a gunman walked into the Olin E. Teague Veteran's Center and opened fire on guests and staff having lunch, Temple police said.
The 73-year-old suspect, who suffered minor injuries after others in the cafeteria wrestled him to the ground, was treated at Scott and White Hospital in Temple and then placed in Bell County Jail, said Lt. Edward Best.

Catalysts Speed It Up
A catalyst is like adding a bit of magic to a chemical reaction. Reactions need a certain amount of energy in order to happen. If they don't have it, oh well, the reaction probably can't happen. A catalyst lowers the amount of energy needed so that a reaction can happen more easily. A catalyst is all about energy. If you fill a room with hydrogen gas (H2) and oxygen gas (O2), very little will happen. If you light a match in that room (or just produce a spark), most of the hydrogen and oxygen will combine to create water molecules (H2O). It is an explosive reaction. You can also add a catalyst to that room and get one little reaction started. In that situation, you could add a little palladium (Pd) to act as the catalyst.
The energy needed to make a reaction happen is called the activation energy. As everything moves around, energy is needed. The energy that a reaction needs is usually in the form of heat. When a catalyst is added, something special happens. Maybe a molecule shifts its structure. Maybe that catalyst makes two molecules combine and they release a ton of energy. That extra energy might help another reaction to occur in something called a chain reaction. You could also think of a catalyst like a bridge in some instances. Instead of letting reactions happen in the same (but faster) way, it can offer a new direction or chemical pathway in order to skip steps that require energy.
Catalysts are also used in the human body. They don't cause explosions, but they can make very difficult reactions happen. They help very large molecules to combine. There is another interesting fact about catalysts. You know that catalysts lower the activation energy required for a reaction to occur. With the activation energy lower, the products can also combine more easily. Therefore, the forward and reverse reactions are both accelerated. It changes both rates and usually changes the equilibrium point.
Inhibitors Slow It DownThere is also something called an inhibitor that works in exactly the opposite way as catalysts. Inhibitors slow the rate of reaction. Sometimes they even stop the reaction completely. You might be asking, "Why would anyone need those?" You could use an inhibitor to make the reaction slower and more controllable. Without inhibitors, some reactions could keep going and going and going. If they did, all of the molecules would be used up. That would be bad, especially in your body. When you are watching television, you have no reason to keep breaking down sugars at the same rates you would if you were working out.

Home prices see biggest quarterly slump in 12 years
- From: AAP
- April 29, 2011
CAPITAL city home prices have posted their biggest quarterly fall in at least 12 years, as more stock in the housing market allows prospective buyers to wait for bargains, a survey shows.
Capital city dwelling values fell by a seasonally adjusted 2.1 per cent in the first quarter of the year, according to the latest RP Data-Rismark Home Value Index.
The quarterly change was the steepest since the index series began in June 1999, RP Data research director Tim Lawless said.
Prices were flat in the month of March and down 0.6 per cent over the past 12 months, with the national city dwelling value median price at $455,000.
The numbers were being dragged down by a recent rapid build up of housing stock into the market, he said.
"The amount of properties being advertised for sale is about 30 per cent higher than what it was last year," Mr Lawless told AAP.
With more dwellings available for sale, prospective buyers are negotiating for lower prices much more than they used to, he said.
"The simple fact that there's so much stock to choose from for prospective buyers is resulting in more negotiation in the markets (and) buyers are having to sell at lower than what their expectations were.
Seller were now selling properties about 6.5 per cent lower than the original asking price on average, compared with about 5.2 per cent the same time last year.
Recent extreme weather events, including the flooding in Queensland, may also be impacting on the lower numbers, Mr Lawless
"Also, you have the fact that interest rate speculation seems to be building, that they're going to be going up sooner rather than later, particularly with the CPI figures out just recently."
The survey found that while residential properties may not have seen any capital growth over the past 12 months, many are seeing robust increases in rental yields.
"In contrast to the fall in home values, gross rental yields have been improving with apartments and houses now delivering a gross return of 4.9 per cent and 4.2 per cent respectively in March 2011," Mr Lawless said.
The capital city average for property values were being pulled down considerably by the two weakest performers of Brisbane and Perth, down 4.6 per cent and 3.4 per cent respectively in the quarter to March, he said.

There are over 700 properties listed for sale just in my Brisbane suburb. So much for a housing shortage.
lol Posted at 2:35 PM April 29, 2011
haha. so a drop 2.1% in a whole quarter is the signal to the doom and gloomers of a massive crash? the stock market fluctuates more than this daily. get a grip.
peter of sydney Posted at 2:22 PM April 29, 2011
And prices will keep falling further. Just be patient. Maybe by 2111 I can afford a decent place to live.

I've been skiing CB for 15 years, and love it! It's 100 miles from my home and no reason for me to venture closer to the front range to endure the crowds and lack of steep terrain there. CB rocks literally: The upper mountain is steep and rocky and adventurous. The lower mountain is mediocre in terms of layout and diversity of terrain. I think most vacationers who do not endulge in extreme terrrain love CB because the town is such a laid back, well kept, and scenic place. CBMR stays colder than most Colorado areas so snow stays in better condition during warm cycles. Great terrain in-bounds, but out -of -bounds opportunities are lacking.
One minor annoyance every time I load the Silver Queen chairlift is that their ticket scanner is slower than the old fashioned ticket punch. Sorry, but I take issue with the mgmt of this fine ski resort for endeavoring to add new lifts and lodges while employees tell me the mountain cannot afford to supply its day skiers basic ammenities like convenient parking, ski check and lockers. Also, Montrose is the largest town within 100 miles (driving) and CBMR is not even found in our yellow pages. I can't even find their ski report without going to their website. Even front-range resorts advertise their contact info in our phone books. Nevertheless, regional passes are reasonable and available. The town shuttle almost makes up for lack of parking, increases safety, and adds personality to the whole package.
Few ski areas anywhere can provide more fun for skiers like me than can be had at Crested Butte on a good day!!!

It's extremely hard to beat the value of this surge protector. 12 outlets for around $30. The rotating outlets are extremely useful and functional. However my only complaint is that the materials used are very thin on the outer casing and the overall product weight is very light. Also like some others, the middle outlets were not aligned correctly which prevents the use of 2 of the 4 middle outlets. Obviously I received a bad product as others' have been fine, however I'm not the only one. If you search around the web, you'll see many complaints about this same problem so I rank that up to poor construction that a percentage will be defective. Personally I'm going to pay a little more and switch to the Monster brand for surge protectors. The cost is not as dramactically high as their cable lineup, but the construction feels so much more heavy duty.
This device is essentially identical to a similarly priced product that carries the Belkin name. It accommodates DC power adapter transformers with ease without blocking use of the other receptacles because of the rotating oulets on both the right and left---very handy. The device I received had one of the two indicator light lenses fallen out and loose inside the box. I placed it in the proper position and pushed on it to snap it in place, no big deal. The unit I received had no warranty, instructions or other literature inside the package, a bit unusual from my perspective. I am using it to protect my new 55-inch smart TV, new AV receiver, new Blu Ray player, cable box and telephone answering machine from lightning surges. We had a lightning surge a while back that destroyed a TV, our garage door opener, telephone answering system and AV receiver. We now I have full house surge protection backed up by this device for my theater system. I will be buying another of this surge protector for our main desktop computer and its periferals.
This seems to be a good quality product, with all the features I was looking for, and then some. I wanted a lot of outlets and an on/off switch. I got that, and also got some rotating outlets and a cable TV surge suppressor. I am happy with this purchase.
This is a product of the highest quality, and is worthy of six stars. It met,and even surpassed my needs,I say this because I use it for my Computer, Flat Screen Television,DVD Player,and I still have room for more appliances. I say this in all honesty, If I had to buy another Surge Protector, I would purchase another model 4320, and I would buy it at walmart.
The unit is nice and has plenty of outlets for use. I like the idea of the swivel outlets which makes it convenient for certain use such as making rooms for other outlets to be use. It also has cable in/out as well as phone line in/out for use of an extension from those lines.
Works great for the area I live in where the electric goes off unexpectedly and frequently. I have 2 of these in the line to my computer and other electronics and they do an excellent job of protecting them all.
GREAT PRODUCT FOR THE PRICE & PROTECTION! We love the rotating plugs too. It helps with the big adapter plugs, so not to waste another plug or more space using them. I would buy another one if I had to.
This design is awesome! It allows you to use plugs that are different sizes and configurations without blocking other outlets. The rotating outlets on the side are genius! I was going to have to buy a surge protector with many more outlets than I needed to accommodate all the large and offset plugs I use but this did the trick with room to spare.
This surge protector has more than enough plugs for my 2 computers, monitor, printer and backup drives. The protection is far above other items with the 4320 Joules rating. Good price, I have looked multiple places for this item, Walmart had the best value.
This far exceded my expectations...purchased high-end electronics and this provides safety and protection from surges that happen here frequently. Recommend this to anyone in need of protection on their home entertainment systems.
A very useful design with the movable outlets . I wanted a surge protector with enough outlets to protect all my home entertainment products . It was also convenient that it could be wall-mounted .
With all the different types and shapes power converters come in these days this protector is great. The protection it offers is great for the value. I have 2 now and am purchasing a 3rd.
This product; Inland 4320 joules surgeguard
Rotating surge protector is great. the rotating outlet
Design works very well. shipping cost was low and I got it fast.
This surge protector was, by far, the best value I found anywhere. For the money, you won't find one that protects to this level joules.
This has enough outlets to plug up all of my computer, printer, and all on it. And the fact that some of them rotate is a added plus !!!
This surge protector is GREAT. More receptacles than any other I've had -- and I love the fact that they rotate. Highly recommend.
As advertised. Has lots of plug in options and works perfect for all the different sized plugs I have at my computer table.
A very sturdy and functional design. the rotating outlets facilltate power transformers in limited space areas.
Works Perfect I Recommend Buying This Product

Many people worry about their age-related memory "slips" because they have seen severe memory problems in friends and relatives with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia.
These conditions involve memory loss, along with impairment of other mental or cognitive abilities.
UCLA Survey: 2 Minutes to Discover if Your Memory Loss is Dementia
People with dementia may also lose their ability to reason, become confused about the time and date and where they are, may have trouble reading maps and often get lost, and experience personality and mood changes. For the doctor to diagnose dementia, these cognitive problems must impair patients' abilities to care for themselves.
Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia, but small strokes in the brain, medication side effects, or even depression can impair cognitive abilities enough to create a dementia syndrome.
Find Out Now: Dementia or Forgetfulness? UCLA Survey Reveals What Your Symptoms Mean.
Whenever someone feels that a loss of cognitive abilities is beginning to interfere with daily life, it is important to seek medical advice.
Because Alzheimer's disease has such a gradual onset, its early stages often mimic the normal memory changes that everyone experiences.
Several studies suggest that the sooner people are diagnosed and begin treatment for Alzheimer's, the better the patient's expected outcome. So when in doubt, see your doctor.

PHILADELPHIA ľ In his corner of the 76ersĺ locker room, Thaddeus Young dressed in silence the other night.
Internally, the wheels in his head were turning. The teamĺs captain, a half-hour removed from the final whistle, was still struggling to process a missed opportunity against the Miami Heat, who extended their winning streak to 20 games with a comeback victory at Wells Fargo Center.
ôWe were trying to end it,ö Young said.
Then, he issued this decree.
ôWe have another game against them in April,ö he added.
Wednesdayĺs was one of those games ľ one the Sixers would opt to forget than choose to relive. It wasnĺt a kick-to-the-gut loss. Rather, it was an occasion to validate their season.
What transpired was a 12-point deficit halftime, a 15-2 run in the fourth quarter and a final-minutes lead against the hottest team in the league ů followed by a missed attempt under the basket by Spencer Hawes, a rebound that fell into the hands of a Miami player and free throws that sealed the win for a team that hasnĺt tasted defeat since Feb. 2.
For what itĺs worth, the Sixers are playing better lately.
Young is having one of the most productive stretches in his career, averaging 21 points on 64 percent shooting in his last five games. Jrue Holiday, who had been in a six-game rut, spotted the Sixers 21 points against Miami, appearing to have turned a corner. Their defense churned out 10 steals, their offense chipped in 29 assists and they had a shot to beat the streaking Heat.
Which made their narrow loss to the reigning champion Heat a bit astonishing.
ôI think the way weĺre playing has improved,ö Hawes said. ôI think (this) was the closest weĺve played since the preseason, when we were pushing the ball, sharing the ball these last couple games. Hopefully we can kind of keep that identity for ourselves.ö
All those positives canĺt mask the negatives, however. The Sixers have won only two of their last 15 games. Theyĺve gone without a road victory since Jan. 1, a span of 13 in a row. Theyĺve faded in the Eastern Conference playoff race. Theyĺve fallen into last place in their division.
After the loss, Holiday asserted that the Sixers have the tendency to play up to the competition. Thereĺs evidence to support that, having hung with Miami through three quarters last week in a road loss, having knocked off Brooklyn this week at home and coming within 60 seconds of issuing a defeat to the Heat in the teamsĺ third meeting of the year.
ôBefore the game, we felt we could win this game,ö Holiday said. ôWhen you play against good teams, every team feels like that. ů We came out and played our hearts out.ö
It wasnĺt enough, as has been the case in 40 games this season.
The Sixers had the day off Thursday. Theyĺll practice today, before hosting Indiana Saturday. ů Dorell Wright, who had 13 points against Miami, has scored in double figures in eight of his last 10 games. In that span, heĺs shooting 43 percent (25-for-58) from 3-point range. ů Nick Young played only six minutes in his first game back after missing seven straight with a left ankle sprain.

When your home is near the water, J/105 may be your ideal sailboat. Count up the number of nights spent sleeping aboard and compare that to the number of picnic sails when you would have liked a larger, more comfortable cockpit. J/105 is the answer. Her large cockpit combined with simple 4-5 berth week-ending layout results in two significant owner benefits: (1) A savings of $50,000 in little-used furniture, systems and cabinetry needed for extended cruising, and (2) A boat that's easier to handle, more comfortable in waves and more fun to sail for its size. J/105 has the stability, rig and sail controls to handle 15-20 knot winds without the need of reefing. It has the strength and seaworthiness for ocean going passages. Sailing World Magazine's panel of experts selected J/105 as Boat-of-the-Year among racer-cruisers in 1992. Since then over 630 have been launched worldwide, fulfilling a variety of needs. Enthusiasm for this great boat continues to blossom with an active owner's association and owner maintained web site to help you get the most from your boat. J/105 is the most successful modern one-design keelboat class over 30' in the World. There are one-design starts in virtually every major sailing center across the US and several class starts across Europe. Single handed sailors have raced and cruised to Bermuda; an older couple enjoys cruising in Maine and winning the Monhegan Race after giving up their Alden 54; and America's Cup helmsman race for prize money around the country in a professional match racing circuit. "A gust of wind, blowing about 25 mph, accelerated the J/105 up to a sustained speed of over 14 knots." J/105 makes sailing easier and smoother. No pitching, no rolling about and no panic drills. You may never have to leave her comfortable cockpit. Gone are feverish routines of course and sail changes. Enjoy the luxury of a dodger while napping on full-length cockpit cushions. Only one jib to tend. Roll it in or out. The spinnaker is contained in a snuffer. Jibing is a one person operation. Simply let go the old sheet, then trim in the new one. Good-bye big racing crews and foredeck work. Hello fun and relaxation. Whether blowing 5 mph or 20 mph, you will want to set J/105's asymmetric spinnaker - even with just two people aboard! It adds a new dimension to sailing enjoyment: It's (1) safer with total snuffing or partial quick-reefing from the cockpit, (2) easier with one person controlling all sails, (3) smoother with a better-balanced sailplan which helps you steer out of trouble, (4) stiffer due to a low VCG and the spinnaker's lower center of area and flat, open leech, and (5) faster over waves thanks to the power and lift of this unique spinnaker design.

About Elena Nosyreva
I was born and raised in Russia. I got my PhD degree in biology in St Petersburg State University (Russia) and continued my research work in the Russian Academy of Sciences. In 1999, I moved to the United States to pursue my neuroscience research at the UT Southwestern Medical Center located in Dallas, TX.
Being a scientist has been very rewarding in many aspects including creativity. However, I felt a compelling need to further express myself by taking an artistic journey.
My artistic experimentation has evolved into a tremendously exciting form � mixed media collage, fine art photography, and digital art. I like experimenting with my photographs. I combine multiple images, textures, to crystallize an image that says something new and different at the emotional level.
My �Still life� series are inspired by paintings in Flemish and Dutch baroque style. I like the freedom in the arrangement of elements within a composition, and a challenge in creating a special light witch enhances the mood of a still life.
The inspiration for my mixed media collages is travel photos, postcards, road maps, found and hand painted papers. There are infinite ways in which these materials together with abstract elements of art � color, shape, line, texture, can be transformed into rich and expressive visual statements.
My award winning works has been shown at numerous exhibitions and juried into fine art shows. Much of my work resides in private collections in the US and Russia.

Underground veteran mc/producer/DJ Superstar Quamallah, who first burst onto the scene in 1998 with his Don't Call Me John EP (ABB Records), returns with a proper follow up to 2009′s Invisible Man album.Talkin' All That Jazz, will be released on 9-13-2011. Quamallah is accompanied by DeQawn and producer Izznyce. The first leak is "Manhattan Reflections".
Superstar Quamallah & DeQwan "Manhattan Reflections" (MP3)
makes me think of guru…
Feeling the beat–retro or not–the rhymes could be more exciting.
Invisible Man is a true classic album to me but this EP is a bit underwhelming… I listened to it a couple times and wasn't that excited about it… Off the strength of the LP I will give it a few more spins to see if my opinion changes.

I took this photo over Fourth of July weekend. We were sitting out on the deck at the lake watching the fireworks. This tiki lamp was sitting on the deck railing and I loved watching its flame dance in the slight breeze which was blowing. In fact, for a while I found it's quiet illumination more enjoyable than all of the fantastical explosions happening above and around us. There's something I find fascinating about the fact that the electric lights we take for granted are still a fairly new concept in the course of time. For ten thousand years, up until the last century, the quiet light of a small lamp was the only thing people had to pierce the darkness of night.
Tag Archives: Lamp
Light for the Next Step
Your word is a lamp for my feet,
a light on my path.
Psalm 119:105 (NIV)
God's Message is not a high-beam that reveals the road ahead.
It is a foot-lamp that helps you manage the next step wisely.
My Life: A Photo Abecedarius
E is for Eyes.
I don't know why, but I've always had a fascination with eyes. When I am struck by a stranger, it almost always their eyes that, well, "catch my eye." Eyes have been a consistent motif in my artwork. I've heard it said that science has been able to replicate almost every human aspect in the form of robotics, but the eye and it's coordination with the brain and body has been virtually impossible to replicate in its complexity, sensitivity and rapid response.
I love that God created the eye to be the lamp of the soul. Eyes speak so much. They are so expressive. Eyes captivate.
Chapter-a-Day 2 Kings 8
Elisha then stared hard at Hazael, reading his heart. Hazael felt exposed and dropped his eyes. Then the Holy Man wept. 2 Kings 8:11 (MSG)
Our eyes can be very revealing. When I was a child, my parents definitely had "the look." Their eyes could penetrate and see all sorts of things – especially when I had done something wrong and I knew it. As a father, I look into my daughters' eyes and can see deception, joy, honesty, fear, hurt, guilt, anger, shame, or depression.
It isn't just a parent-child thing, either. I looked into my friends eyes this past weekend and saw intense sadness. Last night I gazed into my wife's eyes and saw deep grief, and love that was deeper still.
"Your eye is a lamp, lighting up your whole body. If you live wide-eyed in wonder and belief, your body fills up with light. If you live squinty-eyed in greed and distrust, your body is a dank cellar. Keep your eyes open, your lamp burning, so you don't get musty and murky. Keep your life as well-lighted as your best-lighted room." – Luke 11:33-34 (MSG)
If I look into your eyes, what will I see?

Chapter-a-Day Exodus 27
"Now, order the Israelites to bring you pure, clear olive oil for light so that the lamps can be kept burning. In the Tent of Meeting, the area outside the curtain that veils The Testimony, Aaron and his sons will keep this light burning from evening until morning before God. This is to be a permanent practice down through the generations for Israelites." Exodus 27:20-21 (MSG)
There is a light above our kitchen sink that remains on 24/7/365. The practice of keeping a light burning through the night was not motivated by any kind of spiritual reasoning. With teenage daughters often coming home well after we've gone to bed, it's there to help them not stumble on their way into the house. If we have to get up in the watches of the night for some reason, we have a light to guide us.
As I read God's command for Aaron and the priests to keep the oil lamps burning in the tent of God's dwelling, it struck me that there are parallel reasons with our little kitchen light. You need light for protection and safety. You need light if you're going to be active. What a daily word picture for the people of Israel who, at this point in the story, are still uprooted and wandering through the wilderness. The lamps in the night send a subtle, but powerful message. God does not sleep at night. God is active. God will protect and watch over you in the depths of daily darkness.
Today, I'm thankful for God who is vigilant in watching over me and my family even when I am asleep or distracted by the unimportant things of this world.
