100% Irish for a Day in Kuwait
Back in January, SSG Rene Herrera with the Minnesota National Guard contacted TCM about his desire to participate in our 100% Irish for a Day TC 10 Mile race on March 10. There was just one small problem: He is currently stationed in Kuwait and wouldn't be back home for a few months. Not easily deterred, SSG Herrera decided he would run the 10 mile race on March 10 in Kuwait and even recruited a few National Guard friends to do it with him. Here they are post-race, Irish kilt and all!
We wish them a safe trip home to the States, and thank them and all of our men and women in uniform for their service!

reyn spooner's trademark inside-out fabric, emulating a sunwashed fade.
Words by Jian DeLeon Photos by Jay Wen
Reyn's began as a Hawaiian-inspired shirtmaker on California's Catalina Island. When it made its formal move to Oahu's Ala Moana shopping center as one of the burgeoning mall's flagship stores, it somehow acquired the moniker of the "Brooks Brothers of the Pacific." This may be due to founder Reyn McCullough's establishment of "Aloha Fridays" on the islands in 1966, when businessmen would be allowed to wear the floral-printed shirts to work. This practice eventually became commonplace on the islands. The label's real claim to fame came when McCullough, inspired by bleached-out, sunfaded fabrics of beach bums, began making his shirts with the fabric inside-out, creating the desired worn-in look. One of his most iconic designs is the Ivy-inspired pop-over shirt with a button-down collar, especially in the brand's "La Haina" print. The Reyn Spooner brand aims to channel that heritage and attention to quality and combine it with modern fits. With many designers like Engineered Garments infusing a little bit of island culture into their Spring/Summer collections for 2011, it wouldn't seem out of place to see this brand's popularity rise. Under the helm of CFDA-winner Gordon Thompson and designer Alice Chen-Galloway, the two have taken the brand into the future by doing things like collaborating with streetwear brands like Stussy and opening a flagship store in the youthful Waikiki.
the brand's interesting take on micro-corduroy shirting -- a woodblock pattern.
same shirt, different view.
the revamped brand has made forays into outerwear like blazers
loud patterns are prevalent through the collection.
patterned shorts and solid corduroy pants make an appearance.
as do patterned board shorts.
kind of makes you wish for an endless summer.

When they release the halftime show performer, it better be good. If it's someone like Jay-Z or a pop star that is more iconic, then I'd be "eh"
If it's justin bieber, or Kesha, or Lady Gaga, I'd be pretty pissed
If it's foo fighters or bon jovi or any rock band, I'd be "**** yeah"
And seriously... that's your concern about the world? Because we are talking about a performer at the metlife SB.
Remember when Bevis and Butthead had the 20 minute superbowl halftime show? I miss that.
I literally can only think of 1 half time show i liked.....
Tom Petty. s'bout it.
Oderint Dum Metuant
It's too bad, I'm too good....
We need more awesomeness men **** during halftime, not halftime shows where girls will say "OH YES! Thank god it's halftime"

Bob Jones brauchte ein neues Logo Design und hat einen Wettbewerb auf 99designs gestartet.
Aus 114 Designs von 51 Designern wurde eine Gewinner gewählt.
Kell Server Cabinets
Kell Systems makes cabinets to house computer servers and network equipment. More information about the company can be found at http://www.KellSystems.co.uk
Kell Server Cabinets is now to be used as a brand name and we want a revised logo.
IT managers and purchasing people.
The Kell Server Cabinets logo needs to emphasise the Kell name and the words "Server Cabinets" to be legible when the logo is produced in a relatively small size on business cards etc.
The logo is also applied to the company's products, so it must be simple enough to enable 3D physical labels to be made.
The design objective is to create a distinctive logo where the Kell name can be seen clearly across a small office but not to have something so dominant that it detracts from the cabinets themselves. These come in a range of wood-effect finishes and are designed to blend into the office environment.
Any graphic elements associated with the logo need to be meaningful and not simply random shapes. There is not necessarily a requirement for such elements. The logo could be produced purely typographically, or enclosed within a block of colour etc.
When used on cabinets, the width of the logo will be 50mm.
A major benefit of the cabinets, in all applications, is the reduction in noise from computer servers.

Dhurrie rugs are a hot designer choice for nearly any room. The rugged and durable flat-weave of dhurrie rugs makes them a natural choice in casual settings. Additionally, with today's decor tending to be more flexible, dhurrie rugs are being utilized in more formal settings as well. This versatility, as well as their transitional appeal, helps make dhurrie rugs a favorite for all ages.
However, that has not always been the case. With the reputation of being affordable and rough, dhurrie rugs were relegated in the past solely to high traffic areas, kitchens, student apartments and the like. Certainly, not the stuff designers were likely to tackle! So obviously, the fabulous dhurries you are seeing today are not your mother's old rugs.
What happened? Largely hand-loomed in India, dhurries or "dhury" rugs have as rich a history as any of their hand-knotted Turkish brethren. Dhurries have been long respected as the "workhorse" of area rugs with origins that can be traced all the way back to ancient Ajanta cave paintings. However, only relative recently have dhurrie rugs come to fully mature largely under the direction of the western design world. Highly regarded as a leading expert on rugs, David Black was at the forefront of this transformation with his London exhibition "The Underappreciated Dhurrie." This Exhibition, held in 1982, went a long way toward helping the world recognize the exceptional beauty and practicality that dhurrie rugs could achieve. Having rediscovered the virtues of these rugs, the design world has done more than merely give dhurrie rugs its stamp of approval. The dhurrie weave was adopted and then practically reinvented. Today the tight, fine weave of the dhurrie allows for clean geometric patterns so coveted by style mavens. With these new updated designs and significantly higher quality materials, such as fine quality cottons and wools, the ancient craft now expresses a contemporary design sensibility that fits in perfectly with today's decors.
Dhurrie rugs, long admired for their durability and cost effectiveness, have grown in stature and are now the perfect combination of fashion and practicality to match up quite nicely with our modern eclectic lifestyles. Today, dhurries are fashion "must haves" and can be found in a large variety of designs, from classic stripe patterns, now in updated colors…to more intricate graphic designs.
As always, dhurries are reversible and easy to clean, making them so very practical for busy households and especially those with children and pets. True to their heritage, dhurries continue to be more budget friendly than most rugs. Combining their historic practically with this new design sense; all in all, dhurries seem to have come of age quite gracefully.

PRINCETON, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (NYSE: BMY) today announced the submission of a New Drug Application (NDA) to Japan's Pharmaceutical and Medical Devices Agency seeking the world's first interferon-free and ribavirin-free treatment regimen for patients with chronic hepatitis C. The submission is based on results from a Phase III study demonstrating that the 24-week, all-oral, interferon-free and ribavirin-free regimen of daclatasvir (DCV) and asunaprevir (ASV) achieved an overall sustained virologic response 24 weeks after the end of treatment (SVR24) of 84.7% in Japanese patients with chronic hepatitis C (HCV) genotype 1b who were either interferon-ineligible/intolerant (87.4% SVR24) or non-responders (null and partial) to interferon-based therapies (80.5% SVR24).
These Phase III data will lead the Presidential Plenary at the Viral Hepatitis Session on November 5 during the 64th Annual Meeting of the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) in Washington D.C.
Globally, there are 170 million people who are infected with HCV. Of the 1.2 million people living with HCV in Japan, approximately 70 percent of these patients have genotype 1b, which has one of the lowest response rates to current treatments. Further, a significant number of patients with HCV in Japan are over the age of 65, leading to more disease-related complications and a decreased likelihood of tolerating interferon-based therapies, the standard for treating HCV.
"With our submission in Japan, we are pleased to be one step closer to bringing a potential new treatment option to the many people living with HCV in that country," said Brian Daniels, MD, senior vice president, Global Development and Medical Affairs, Research and Development, Bristol-Myers Squibb. "The all-oral regimen of DCV plus ASV in this study represents the potential for a significant advance in the treatment of HCV infection in Japan, particularly when considering that Japanese patients chronically infected with HCV are often older than in other countries and predominantly infected with genotype 1b, both factors which impact response to therapy."
The regimen used in the Phase III study resulted in low rates of discontinuation (5%) due to adverse events (AEs). In addition, the rate of serious adverse events (SAEs) was low (5.9%) and varied among patients. Nasopharyngitis was the most common adverse event in the study (30.2%, 67/222).
Study Design and Results
In this open-label, parallel group, Phase III study, interferon- ineligible/intolerant (IN/I) patients (n=135) and interferon/ribavirin non-responder (NR) patients (n=87) received DCV 60 mg once daily plus ASV 100 mg twice daily for 24 weeks. The primary endpoint was the percentage of patients with a sustained virologic response at 24 weeks after the end of treatment (SVR24).
Virologic Response
"The Phase III study results of daclatasvir plus asunaprevir are exciting to see, especially in this difficult-to-treat patient population. If approved, this regimen has the potential to offer HCV patients in Japan, who are unable to achieve SVR with the current interferon-based standard of care, a new treatment option," said lead study investigator Kazuaki Chayama of Hiroshima University, Japan.
On-Treatment Safety
No deaths were reported and the study discontinuation rate was low (12.6%, 28/222). There were low rates of serious adverse events (5.9%, 13/222) and few adverse events were reported in greater than 10% of patients. The most common adverse events reported were nasopharyngitis (30.2%, 67/222), increased ALT (15.8%), increased AST (12.6%), headache (15.8%), diarrhea (9.9%) and pyrexia (12.2%). A limited number of Grade 3-4 laboratory abnormalities were observed in greater than 3 percent of patients.
The most common adverse event leading to discontinuation was ALT/AST elevation, a measure of liver inflammation. Of the 11 patients who discontinued due to an adverse event, 10 discontinued due to ALT/AST elevation. Despite early discontinuation, 80% of these patients achieved SVR24 and all ALT/AST values returned to normal.
About Bristol-Myers Squibb's HCV Portfolio
Bristol-Myers Squibb's hepatitis C pipeline includes compounds with different mechanisms of action, pursuing both biologics as well as small molecule direct-acting antivirals. These compounds are being studied as part of multiple treatment regimens with the goal of increasing SVR rates across diverse patient types and geographies.
About Hepatitis C
Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver and is transmitted through direct contact with infected blood and blood products. An estimated 170 million people worldwide are infected with hepatitis C, with genotype 1 being the most prevalent genotype. Up to 90 percent of those infected with hepatitis C will not clear the virus and will become chronically infected. According to the World Health Organization, 20 percent of people with chronic hepatitis C will develop cirrhosis and, of those, up to 25 percent may progress to liver cancer. In Japan, the hepatitis C virus is the most common cause of chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis, and approximately 1.2 million people there are living with the hepatitis C virus.

Zayn Malik's fling Courtney Webb has received hundreds of death threats since revealing she slept with the One Direction star behind his girlfriend's back.
Australian beauty Courtney 'CJ' Webb, who allegedly had a one-night stand with the One Direction star last week, says she has been subjected to abusive messages from Zayn's fans since revealing they spent the night together.
The 21-year-old waitress told The Sun: "I was expecting some abuse but it has got out of control. I've had hundreds of calls from all over the world. One American girl left me six voicemails in an hour saying she was going to kill me. It's really scary."
Courtney's number was made public by her and Zayn's mutual friend Leon Anderson on Twitter, which he eventually deleted after three hours but she claims it was too late.
She said: "Leon's a nasty piece of work. It was Zayn who cheated, not me, and Leon let it happen."
Despite reports of their fling, Zayn's girlfriend Perrie Edwards appears to have forgiven him and let him stay over in her luxury suite in Nottingham, where her girl band Little Mix were performing.
A source previously said: "Things are far from over between Zayn and Perrie. He came and stayed in the Little Mix hotel, where Perrie was booked in with her bandmates.
"Everybody gave them their space. They needed to talk things through before Perrie went on stage."
Zayn flew back early from the NRJ music awards in Paris on Sunday to visit Perrie after Courtney claimed she had slept with the boy band heartthrob at his £2.2 million mansion in London last week while Perrie was on tour.
After what was initially thought to be a brief showdown, it has emerged the couple spent the whole night together, with Zayn appearing bleary-eyed on Monday morning.
Speaking just before the show at Concert Hall on Monday night, Perrie, 19, insisted: "I'm totally fine, I'm good. I'm looking forward to the show, this is going to be the best night."

Alright, I got the problem. DT's Hydraulisc link PLZ))00
Alright, I got the problem. DT's Hydraulisc link PLZ))00
I think that's the VTOL from Crysis. It's in one of these packs.
Guys, why don't you do like starcraft 2 marines with citizen faces? Imagine the guy from Concerned fighting the zerg army! I thik it will be awesome.
Someone could reskin tycus's face to a civ face?
I don't think it might work as all the citizens have different face model. And I bet Tycus's face isn't that slim and sexy as male_07's one :P
Getting the model to fit around the head is kinda hard, since it's bigger than your normal citizen, and unless you plan to break faceposing, and then remake it all from scratch you're somewhat out of luck.
Not really, just move the body, re-do the physics, roll in cash.
Isn't it actually possible to headhack (Donnno what is it, lol) Tychus? I mean just remove Tychos's head and put a citizen head instead, without and rescaling and stuff. Just bind it to the head bone. I know it might look smaller but the marine suit is big itself, and I think tychos's head is too big for it. >:D
In any case, I don't know about the others, but I'm not going to be doing citizen heads.
Would it be possible to port Nova? I'm feeling creative, and I'd like to begin work on a Starcraft: Ghost comic. We seem to have enough SC models to at least start up *something* interesting with that :)
So...... When is next release?
please give them time.. they might be with lots of RL atm. mostly job work.
When it's done. Stop asking.
What is the next project?
Shut up already!!!
Dear fanboys,
STFU!!!!! It will be done when it is done! It will not be released before it gets done, and not after, but when it gets done. They will release it when its done. They have already said what they will be working on. How about you guys actually read the posts for a change.
As I have said a few times already, progress will be posted when it is made. It is taking as long as it is because I have this thing where I go to a place, perform various tasks and get paid for it. It's called work.
Note that every time somebody hassles for progress, my enthusiasm for this project diminishes.
I agree with Jim and the others. Please guys jim and others have lots of real life to do. there not here to be your mindless drones to rip models and rig them for use in gmod. remember patience is a virtue. I'm happy of the stuff they already released and i don't care if it takes a year or more. Just please guys give them time to work. they are people like you and me and they do have real life jobs , school , and other things to worry about.
One question.How do you do it?Import this models?If you can,write instruction.
There's an m2 max importer
Except that Starcraft 2 uses m3, and there is an importer for that too.
Finally found a bit of time to do stuff.
Glowing headlights. Woohoo.
looking very good right there. I'm guessing your making plain marines besides the dominion and raider's color schemes?
More colored marines is nice to have.
Yeah I figured the UED needed a bit of love. Shame I don't have anything more exciting to show yet.
Oh wait...
Slow down, where's the fire?
I agree. The UED were pretty awesome in the days of BW. also very cool screenshot dude
That is epic desktop background material right there.
DAMN is that the firebat or the Mercerany model. Devil's something I think it was.
Oh YES. Content. Thanks guys.
You know, if its made so when you color it with the color tool, you only color the main armor, you could make any color marine you want without it looking screwed up! IE: You could make screenshots of a SCII match! And awsome work with the headlights! Looks like hes ready to kick ass!
EDIT: This is just an idea, nothing more.
You mean Devil Dogs. I don't think those are it, theres no ingame HD model last time I checked.
Maybe you are right, but with the black line above the eyes, and other parts, it makes it look like a Devil's Dog. Maybe Im right or wrong, either way, ITS FRIKKING AWESOME
You might be able to take the Devil Dog's unit portrait and replace the head of the regular Firebat model. I think that the helmet and textures are the only difference.
Well, maybe Im wrong cuz Devil dogs' features show more black colored parts.
Yeah, though either way the Devil Dogs look bad ass.
Sorry for the double post but, I just thought of somthing, The probe and drone proffiles seem to have a complete model with them, Can that be ported? Just curious.
Yeah I'd like to see the probe as a ragdoll too.
Possibly, I'll look into it.
Hmmmm..... Too bad... I really wanted to see the drone, that is unless you could basicaly copy the limbs and webbing and place them twice along the sides to create a full drone. Thats just my 2 cents though. Probably wouldnt work. But thats awesome that your porting the War Pig and Medic!

To these ears, the Beatles had a lot to do with what was initially grabbing about GbV. By 1994, the Fab Four had become shorthand for nice harmonies and catchy tunes; even jokers like Weezer were getting put forward as modern-day Beatles. But if you were old enough for those transistor memories — and the members of GbV, bless their hearts, were — the Beatles meant something more profound: they did their magic in mono, and every new single offered a new possibility for what a pop record could sound and feel like. That was a hard trick by 1994, when virtually every kind of record had already been made by someone. But Bee Thousand managed it. The album's cut-and-paste structure was as jarring as its pop hooks were reassuring; the recording quality — some numbers sharply recorded, others full of mud — played with your perspective. So did the song lengths, when the minute-long tracks seemed fully fleshed out and the three-minute songs (only two of them) were epics. And the lyrics, which were singable but never quite graspable: sex and drugs were in there ("Hot Freaks" and "Weed King," respectively), but so was a kind of hazy, beer-blast transcendentalism.
The other celebrated aspects of GbV showed up when the band began regular touring. Pollard's mike swings and scissor kicks, that ubiquitous on-stage cooler of beer, and the uncanny ability to remember 50-odd songs per set. Most of all, their ability to jump from the sublime to the ridiculous at a moment's notice. I recall one night at the Paradise when the phrase "Dave Matthews sucks!" became a mantra echoing in one song after another. It was as if Pollard had just realized that the deepest truths about art could be inferred from the truth about Dave. "That's part of what a Guided by Voices show is, a train wreck that never seems to happen," says Sprout. "It flies down the track, wheels coming off, sparks flying, rivets popping, lots of smoke, but it never crashes. The people arrive at the end safe and happy."
The Bee Thousand line-up managed one more landmark album, Alien Lanes, on which the stylistic quirks of Bee Thousand were polished into a more formal prog-pop suite. Demos was the first to leave (briefly replaced by one of GbV's first critical champions, Spin magazine's Jim Greer), and problems developed during the follow-up, 1996's Under the Bushes Under the Stars. Pieced together from two sets of sessions (the first with ex-Pixies bassist Kim Deal producing), it was the first GbV album that was nothing more than a good batch of songs.
Pollard is said to have fired everybody next time around, pulling in Chicago band Cobra Verde to be the new GbV. (Sprout says his own departure was friendly — his son was born during a tour, and "I couldn't see not seeing my kids grow up" — and he guested on most of the later albums.) There would be more changes before the band played their last show, in January 2005 (Kevin March, from the '90s Boston band the Dambuilders, was the final drummer), and there'd be many more good batches of songs. Over time, production got fully hi-fi. Ric Ocasek's production on 1999's Do the Collapse drew the harshest "sellout" criticism, but time has proved it to be the quirkiest of the later batch. Still, Pollard never let out a turkey, at least not on a formal GbV album. (Side projects could be another story — hands up, everybody who shelled out for the recorded-in-one-night double LP by Acid Ranch.)

The jackets have drawstrings at the waist that could become snagged or caught in small spaces or vehicle doors and pose an entanglement hazard to young children. In February 1996, CPSC issued guidelines (pdf) about drawstrings in children's upper outerwear. In 1997, those guidelines were incorporated into a voluntary standard. Then, in July, 2011, based on the guidelines and voluntary standard, CPSC issued a federal regulation. CPSC's actions demonstrate a commitment to help prevent children from strangling or getting entangled on neck and waist drawstrings in upper outerwear, such as jackets and sweatshirts.
Consumers should immediately remove the drawstrings from the jackets to eliminate the hazard and contact Louise Paris for instructions on how to receive a full refund.
For additional information, please contact Louise Paris at (877) 537-7517 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or at email@example.com

It was nearly a year ago when a fleet of hydraulic hammers converged upon the Warm Springs Road bridge and slowly gnawed at the span until nothing was left but a pile of rubble -- 800 yards of concrete and 100 tons of steel -- on Interstate 15.
No worries, transportation officials told residents and business owners in the southwest. Their cherished passage linking the west side of the Las Vegas Valley to the east would soon return, and it would be better than ever: four lanes rather than two.
The projected completion date was late summer, three months ago.
That seemed plausible as support columns quickly went up and the ramps leading to the bridge took shape. Since then, nothing. So what happened?
Corey Newcome, project manager for the $240 million Interstate 15 south design-build endeavor, doesn't like talking about it. During a peer review of the drawings, flaws were discovered in the design. The steel girders used in the plans were not large enough to accommodate the capacity of the bridge.
"If I knew then what I know now, we wouldn't have knocked down the bridge," said Newcome, a project manager with Las Vegas Paving.
The bridge had to be redesigned and girders reordered, pushing the finish date to May.
With any massive project, unforeseen problems arise. It is particularly troubling when they affect roads residents once had and now do not, as opposed to a newly built road that motorists have yet to grow accustomed to. This is something Newcome readily acknowledges.
The Warm Springs span wasn't the only surprise.
Las Vegas Paving planned to build a ramp that would lead motorists from Interstate 215 and Interstate 15 to eastbound Blue Diamond Road. The state transportation division said there was not enough room. Traffic stopped at the Blue Diamond signal could back up onto the access road, which curves right before the road. They feared motorists coming around the bend would not be able to stop in time.
"It was a safety issue," Newcome said.
Now residents who live along Blue Diamond east of I-15 must head west on Blue Diamond and make a U-turn or exit at Las Vegas Boulevard and travel south to Blue Diamond.
Enough with the problems. What about some good news?
Work from the I-215/I-15 interchange to Silverado Ranch Boulevard will be completed by the end of the month. Also by month's end, the reconfigured exit to Tropicana Avenue will open. Motorists will exit before Russell Road and use a new access road that crosses over the onramp from Interstate 215 west to Interstate 15 north.
It is undoubtedly odd to exit the freeway so far from the actual arterial one is trying to reach, but the access roads allow the merging to happen off the freeway, which will alleviate braking and backups.
"I'm sure we're going to get some flak," Newcome said. "People are creatures of habit, but hopefully they will adapt."
In mid-January, the access road that will lead from Tropicana Avenue south to either Interstate 215 or Interstate 15 will open with a temporary underpass below the railroad crossing just north of Sunset Road. Las Vegas Paving is still working with the railroad to widen the crossing to accommodate a straight stretch rather than the temporary bend around the existing berms.
By June, the entire project should wrap up. That will include the two-lane access roads that will flank I-15 from Tropicana Avenue to Blue Diamond Road. These roads are designed to accommodate traffic headed to Strip properties, freeing up the interstate for motorists traveling through town.
They will also provide relief when accidents on the freeway cause congestion.
This is the largest road construction project on Interstate 15, and it is the largest Las Vegas Paving has ever undertaken.
It includes 26 new bridges, 35 retaining walls and 1.5 miles of sounds walls. Major improvements were made to exits at Tropicana, Russell, I-215, Blue Diamond and Silverado Ranch.
There has been plenty of grumbling as ramps were closed and lanes restricted during overnight hours, but unlike other road construction projects in Las Vegas, at least workers are seen around the clock.
"If we're going to take lanes away, we're going to start work right away," Newcome said.
The company cast concrete beams off-site and trucked them in to reduce the amount of time lanes and ramps would have to be restricted. The company's priority is to keep traffic moving, especially on Interstate 215 and Interstate 15, where 150,000 vehicles travel each day.
"The traffic is relentless, day or night," Newcome said. "That much traffic makes this tough to do."
Progress is noticeable and, relatively speaking, the end is near. In less than a year, Interstate 15 through Las Vegas should be a breeze. But, don't worry, it won't be the end of construction on the state's busiest freeway.
In fact, road work on the freeway will be a constant in our lifetime.
Up next is the interchange at Cactus Avenue, then another at the Sloan exit.
Also, get ready for Project Neon, which focuses on the Charleston Boulevard interchange and then more work north near the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, where an interchange will be built at Interstate 215.

Harry Styles and Taylor Swift's puppy love affair is going strong, and it looks like her dad gives his blessing.
The happy couple was backstage at Z100's Jingle Ball concert where Taylor performed, when Taylor planted a kiss on Harry just before he did a little dance number with Scott Swift, the father of his girlfriend du jour.
Later, at an after party, 22-year-old Taylor and 18-year-old Harry recreated the famous "Dirty Dancing" moment when Patrick Swayze lifts Jennifer Grey into the air. (Wait — isn't that movie a little before Harry and Taylor's time?)
The backstage peck was caught on video then uploaded to YouTube, while the dance duet was photographed and posted to Twitter.
Some fans think [read: want to believe] the snap is a fake, but the Daily Mail has other photos from the post-concert bash, and the pair are clearly wearing the same outfits as they are in the dancing pic.
Sorry, Directioners. No matter how much you want to believe this relationship isn't happening, it seems "Haylor" isn't going away any time soon.

- How to Read a Study Record
The primary objective is to evaluate the difference in cardiac strain rate evolution in elderly early BC patients treated with (neo) adjuvant anthracycline-based chemotherapy compared with a non-anthracycline regimen (Taxotere-cyclophosphamide) CT.
This study also will compare the serum biomarkers profile during and after the (neo) adjuvant CT in both treatment arms, assess whether MRI allows detecting earlier than standard echocardiography the signs of cardiotoxicity, during and after adjuvant (neo) CT, assess whether brain PET-CT allows detecting regional functional impairment in patients receiving CT, evaluate cognitive function before and after (neo) adjuvant CT in both treatment arms, evaluate distress and functional autonomy before and after (neo) adjuvant CT in both treatment arms, evaluate psychological state and burden of primary caregivers before and after (neo) adjuvant CT in both treatment arms, evaluate primary caregivers abilities to detect patients' distress and functional autonomy before and after (neo) adjuvant CT in both treatment arms, evaluate the short and long-term toxicity profile of the regimens, estimate the 10-year risk of relapse and/or death using the Adjuvant!Online tool, and estimate the Framingham risk score for Hard Coronary Heart Disease (10-year risk).

August 25 2009, 11:55 AM
Good news, former Lieutenant Governor Jane Norton---and the rest of you Republicans hoping to square off against Democrat Michael Bennet in the 2010 race for U.S. Senate: "After significant reflection," former Congressman Bob Beauprez, who failed three years ago in his bid for governor, has decided not to run.
In an e-mail sent to supporters yesterday, Beauprez wrote: "I founded a monthly e-magazine, A Line of Sight, that has been a resource of conservative opinion on current public policy and key issues. I've stayed involved, keeping my eyes open for other ways to make a difference" (via The Denver Post).
Moreover, the Beauprez family has started a buffalo ranch in the mountains, and Bob enjoys working there alongside his son, Jim, who manages the ranch. Beauprez says the life reminds him of when he "worked side-by-side with my own father in the dairy business. And most personally, [my wife] Claudia and I love being grandparents as well as spending more time than we've ever had with our grown children."
ColoradoPols doesn't buy Beauprez's story: "Let's face it: Beauprez isn't running because he looked around, considered various staffers, and finally realized what we'd been saying for a long time. He. Can't. Win." As Westword points out, Beauprez likely missed out on his best chances of returning to politics when he decided to run for governor instead of against Mark Udall for Senate in 2008.
On the other hand, it seems Beauprez really is loving his life.
"What really was the deciding factor for us was knowing we would have to forsake, set aside, all of our family interests, everything we've got going on" to mount a campaign, Beauprez told listeners of the KHOW 630 AM radio show yesterday (via The Colorado Independent). "At least this cycle, it won't be me."

Pros: Very detailed sound. Great soundstage. Great separation. Good build.
Cons: Light bass. Sounds a little cold. Comfort depends on head size/shape and your ears can rub against the drivers.
Comfort & Fit
The AD700X are reasonably comfortable. How comfortable they are and how well they fit depends entirely on the size and shape of your head. They are not made for something with a small head and they don't have an adjustable headband to account for different head sizes, although the 3D wings are flexible so it does have some head room (heh heh...) for fit.
The ear cups are quite large. They will fit around fairly large ears easily. The material used on the ear pads is a soft cushion like material so the ear pads are soft.
I find that after some time they can get irritating as the drivers touch the edge of my ear.
As you can see in this picture the drivers are angled so that they face more towards the back of your head when you wear them.
The material on the 3D wings is very squishy like a sponge. Because of how light the headphones are (they feel about as heavy as an iPod touch in the hand) the wings can barely be felt once you're wearing the headphones.
The clamping force of these headphones is definitely on the low side, meaning if you have a smaller head they can slide down your head. With that being said it's not too bad since they are very light.
Build Quality
The build quality of these is good. They're definitely not an indestructible tank but they don't feel cheap either. The two bands at the top which join each cup together feel very strong. The ear cups themselves also feel strong, and on the inside of the ear cup you can see the driver is housed within a shiny metal frame with screws and looks very solid.
The cable has adequate strain reliefs at both the jack end and where the cable joins the left ear cup. The cable itself is very rubbery and strong. Because of how rubbery it is it doesn't hold kinks easily.
The actual levers that hold the wings on feel reasonably strong.
Sound Quality
The AD700X's are very detailed on all frequencies but light on bass. Detail retrieval, separation and soundstage of these cans makes them great for analyzing music but a lack of body, compared to a more rounded and warm headphone such as an HD558 means some may find them cold or dry for music listening.
Highs are clear and apparent and small details are easily discernible from other elements of the sound.
Mids are detailed and clear and the great separation of these cans continues here, however vocal based music is not the strong point of these headphones. While the mids are clear and apparent, these headphones do not make vocal heavy music shine. The mids are clear but lack intimacy. Vocals sound good, but not on the level of a headphone with warm and smooth sound such as HD598 or HD6xx. If you are a lover of the beautiful vocal sound that can be achieved with a smooth mid-centric headphone, you may be disappointed with the AD700X.
With that being said the mids still sound great for music that isn't heavily based around clear smooth vocals. The fantastic separation of these means that vocals are easily distinguishable from other sounds in the music and don't ever sound like they are being jumbled up with other sounds. This effect is further enhanced by the excellent sound stage of the AD700X meaning that vocals are very clearly separated from other sounds and sound like they are in a different position from the other sounds.
Bass is tight, punchy and accurate. There's not much else to say, I'm not a lover of bass personally and my opinion of the AD700X bass is that it provides a good hit and is apparent, without sounding boomy or interfering with the mids at all. These are not a bass head can but for music that doesn't require boomy bass these are perfect as they give you just enough of a bass punch to hear bass elements without affecting other frequencies and being boomy.
For the average asking price of $140 these are great value if you're looking for detailed sound with good separation and sound stage. Because of these characteristics the AD700X is also excellent for games such as CS:GO.

Free app Mouse Without Borders lets you share your mouse and keyboard with other machines, and even drag and drop files between them. We've talked about apps that do this before, but Mouse Without Borders is even more powerful. Not only can you drag your mouse between monitors, but you can even copy and paste text between computers and drag files from one to the other. It's Windows only—unlike its competitor Synergy—but if you run Windows exclusively, it's a powerful, dead simple way to limit the number of mice on your desk. Check out the video above to see more.

Morning sickness is a combination of symptoms like nausea and vomiting sometimes accompanied by dizziness, backaches, headaches, lower abdominal cramps or constipation. It usually appears within the first trimester of pregnancy in the 4th or 6th week and most women don't experience a full relief until the 14th week. Morning sickness is normally the sign of a healthy pregnancy. According to a study published in the Journal - Obstetrics and Gynaecology showed that women who experience this unpleasant symptom have a lower risk of miscar... Read More

"For as long as I can remember I was frighteningly although often wonderfully beholden to moods. Intensely emotional as a child, mercurial as a young girl, first severely depressed as an adolescent and then unrelentingly caught up in the cycles of manic-depressive illness by the time I began my professional life, I became both by necessity and intellectual inclination, a student of moods. It has been the only way I know to understand, indeed to accept, the illness I have; it has also been the only way I know to try and make a difference in the lives of others who also suffer from mood disorders." (Prologue, pg. 5)
"Manic-depression is an illness that is biological in its origins, yet one that feels psychological in the experience of it; an illness that is unique in conferring advantage and pleasure, yet one that brings in its wake almost unendurable suffering...

The US Office of Personnel Management said federal workers in Washington and the surrounding areas would get the day off from work due to the storm, which set snowfall records in Chicago one day earlier. The streets of the nation's capital were eerily quiet as a result.

Is It a Virus or a Bacterium? Know the Difference

It's funny how a path becomes more defined the longer we walk in it. Sister Effect is now just over a month old. But as we've repeatedly articulated these past few weeks our vision and hopes for the future, we've found ourselves even more clear about who we want to be as we work here and in South Sudan.
Without a doubt, we genuinely want God to help us forge a community of sisters who will work together to effect change in South Sudan. On the other side of the world, we so want to develop lasting and participatory relationships with women and girls in South Sudan. We want to know their stories and interact with these sisters of ours in meaningful ways. From all of this, we long to see deep and sustainable healing come to the nation of South Sudan.
But undergirding all of what happens here and there, is this hope that we will be an organization that's known by our love for one another. And rather than just say this and leave to the imagination what love would mean, we want to articulate it. We want to say it out loud and on paper so that how we do love and life can translate into something very tangible and measurable. So here goes…
We want love to mean that we'll hear the voices of our sisters here and in South Sudan – and that we'll listen and deeply care about what they have to say.
We want love to mean that we'll respond to what we've heard by praying and then working or connecting in ways that empower and encourage.
We want love to mean that we won't do for others what they're able to do for themselves. In other words, we will build up and come alongside. We will seek to strengthen and equip. But we will always consider the assets and strengths of our sisters and work to initiate and bolster indigenously led change.
We want love to mean that we unequivocally embrace the worth and dignity of every human being – and that our words and actions reflect this.
We want love to mean that we'll do hard things when difficulty presents itself. In such situations, we'll press deeper into God, wait for clarity and then act accordingly. We will allow hardship to help deepen our faith, our relationships and our work here and in South Sudan.
We want love to mean that we know each other, that we pray for and care about each other in transformational ways. Yes, we know that distance could be a barrier, but we're asking God to help us use the incredible communication venues of our time to close geographical space so that we'll somehow experience one another as if we're sitting face to face at a favorite coffee shop, or, in the case of South Sudan, congregating at a local water well!
We want love to mean that we're looking toward God in unison, seeking His direction, His plans and His hopes for our relationships here and our relationships and work in South Sudan.
We want love to mean that there's room for everyone at the table, so to speak. Professionals with
hectic lives, busy stay at-home moms, business owners, college students, junior high and high school students, grandparents and great-grandparents – we all have a vital role in forging a healthy community of sisters. Everyone is important. All are valuable and integral to what our God can do through us viagra generique pas. We want and need everyone who will come to this table.
We want love to mean that we'll be an incredible blessing to our partners – our water partner, Every Village, our female economic opportunity partner, Seed Effect, our health partner, In Deed and Truth and our orphan care/prevention of human trafficking partner, Makeway Partners. We want to come alongside of the great work that's already being done through these friends and increase the God- centered impact that's being made through them.
We want love to mean that we'll be tireless champions of the poor all the while remembering that we're all poor in various ways, all in need of the amazing grace that redeems us and saves us from what could be among the worst fates of all – ourselves.
We want love to mean that we'll share God's message of love and hope in both word and deed – whether it's in our home communities or in the most remote South Sudan village.
And finally, we want love to be so obvious and real in us that we tell the world around us that Sister Effect really is an ever-expanding group of friends who are better together. And that our circle becomes more beautiful and complete as new sisters join us and as our South Sudanese sisters are equipped and empowered.

Jennifer Lawrence has maintained her title as the world's highest paid actress for the second straight year.
The Hunger Games star, 26, earned an estimated $46 million before tax from June, 2015 to June this year (2016), topping the list compiled by editors at America's Forbes magazine.
These days she has her pick of projects and Jennifer Lawrence is excited to star in a forthcoming flick about the Theranos medical company.
The "American Hustle" hottie will play Elizabeth Holmes, the woman who skyrocketed to prominence as one of the youngest self-made billionaires ever, only to fall from grace when her biotech company Theranos came under investigation.
She's been busy promoting her new film "X-Men: Apocalypse," and last night (May 23) Jennifer Lawrence paid a visit to "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon."
The "American Hustle" hottie looked gorgeous as she kicked off a round of Fallon's famous game "True Confessions," along with "Last Week Tonight" host John Oliver.
Entertainment Weekly
Movie fans are chomping at the bit ahead of the May 27th release date for "X-Men: Apocalypse" and now Entertainment Weekly is joining in the celebration with four mutant covers.
Never one to mince her words, Jennifer Lawrence gave her unvarnished opinion of Republican Presidential frontrunner Donald Trump over the weekend.
The "Silver Linings Playbook" babe was busy promoting her new movie "X-Men: Apocalypse" on "The Graham Norton Show" when the host asked if she'd ever met Trump in person.
Showing off her writing chops, Jennifer Lawrence composed an essay for the newly-released TIME 100 issue regarding her famous gal pal Adele.
Sophie Turner felt bad for "exhausted" Jennifer Lawrence when they worked on "X-Men: Apocalypse".
The latest X-Men film hits cinemas in May, and reunites fan favourites Jennifer, Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy. Sophie, 20, is new to the franchise, but having made her name in hit TV series Game of Thrones, she quickly found some admirers on set.
Showing off her sexy form, Jennifer Lawrence is the front page beauty for the May 2016 issue of Harper's Bazaar magazine.
The "American Hustle" hottie wears Dior Haute Couture throughout her photo shoot with famed lensman Mario Sorrenti while discussing topics ranging from feminism to the myth of a 'normal body'.

Your main goals are
Fight the Lines and Prevent Loss of Collagen: Introduce more intensive products with more active ingredients in the form of serums and products marked anti-aging into your daily skin care routine. Try products that contain collagen boosting peptides like copper peptide and matrixyl.
Consider including into your daily skin routine (for at least 3-4 months) a serum or moisturizer with vitamin C. Not only vitamin C is an antioxidant that fights against skin damage and free radicals but it is also required for collagen synthesis which declines increasingly with aging. Vitamin C Ester is vitamin C with fatty acid attached to it. It is better absorbed by the skin than vitamin C alone. One of the examples of vitamin C Ester is ascorbyl palmitate.
Crow's feet: Use topical vitamin C to fight those visible spreading lines coming out from the eyes also known as crow's feet. As mentioned above, Vitamin C helps to fight wrinkles and other signs of aging. In your mid- and late-thirties you might want to try out one of the cutting-edge products containing topical muscle relaxers such as argireline and GABA. However, there are still ongoing debates about their effectiveness. Use SPF protection for the area around the eye and make sure you wear good sunglasses – squinting will definitely contribute to those lines despite your sun protection measures.
Age Spots: In the late thirties you become more susceptible to age spots. To prevent age spots use regularly sun protection and choose higher SPF for the summer days. Slow down brown melanin formation and choose a moisturizer with glucosamine. Recent studies have shown that topical application of glucosamine inhibits melanin overproduction in UV damaged skin cells and can help improve skin tone, barrier function and hyperpigmentation.
Redness and Rosacea: According to the National Rosacea Society, you should avoid products with ingredients that sting, burn or cause additional redness, such as alcohol, menthol, peppermint, eucalyptus oil, clove oil, witch hazel, or certain fragrances.
Protect your skin from sun exposure that exacerbates rosacea. Choose sun screen protection with soothing, anti inflammatory abilities. To reverse redness actress Kate Beckingsale's facialist recommends using moisturizers containing anti-irritants like algae extract and sucrose.
Moisturizing the Skin and Fighting Free Radicals: Since your skin is becoming dryer pay more attention to how much water you drink in the course of a day and try to drink at least 2-2.5 liters (10 cups) of water a day. Apply moisturizer with antioxidant properties am and pm to keep your skin moisturized and protect it from free radical damage.
Consider consulting a cosmetologist to get recommendations for such procedures as dermabrasion and mezotherapy as well as for peelings based on fruit acids and herbs that will improve regeneration and skin color.

After taking these Ride Maestro bad boys out for about 10 days, you can really tell that they tried to minimize the construction of the binding. There are a few key features of this binding that stand out among similar products. The Slimeback highback is made from a more malleable plastic that really allows you really roll smoothly with those deep turns and give you that extra stretch while you tweak grab. In addition to that, when I find my legs getting tired and I'm weaving through trees and I want to stand up like Lego Man, it doesn't have that rigid feel in your lower calf that forces you to stand up straight. These allow you to stay relaxed and reduce fatigue.
The straps are streamlined, minimal and comfortably apply support without cutting off circulation to your toes or feet. The Wedgie supports absorb the flat landings and offer that subtle angle to allow your knees and ankles to stand a little more naturally. Plus, this subtle angle also helps reduce fatigue when you are out all day on the mountain. One last small but important detail I really love is the lack of small sidewalls in the binding. Most bindings I've ridden give you a little channel to set your foot in that can be a pain to fit your foot in if you are in not the most ideal place to be strapping in. Ride has made the binding just a tad more narrow to eliminate that little channel and make it seamlessly line up where the frame meets the strap.
This is a truly unique resilient binding. I would highly recommend this binding for any rider. If you haven't ridden a binding with a flexible highback, I highly recommend trying it. You will find that a stiff highback almost becomes more of an inconvenience than a means of support.
