They cost from $29.00 to $39.00 for the solar collector /battery and three die cast metal spot lights. They work very nicely from just a few hours of sunshine and usually are still bright by 12midnight, our closing time.
They give off a white-light which looks surreal (Just what I want!)
They come out of their box with die-cast metal points to fasten the light to,(For ground-insertion) which I trimmed so they would fit into a one -inch steel conduit/bracket and I ran the tiny low-voltage wires through conduit too.
They illuminate my backyard Tower, the Pteradactyl on the South side of the house and the cupola on the roof.
They turn off and on automatically and this sensitivity of their controls seems to be very accurate as far as being on when they should be on, ex cetra.
I have a set of three on each one of the items I mentioned here with a spare set besides, 4 sets of three , total.
I do have to scoop some snow out of the lights on the "Bird" and "Tower" because those lights had to be pointed more sharply "up", the cupola did not, so they are self-cleaning of snow.(Because snow can't get into them hardly at all! )

Gilack Early OriginsThe surname Gilack was first found in County Galway (Irish: Gaillimh) part of the province of Connacht, located on the west coast of the Island, where the family name is descended from the Norman noble William Fitzadelm de Burgo who went to Ireland in the Anglo- Norman invasion of Ireland and was the succeeded Strongbow as Chief Governor. Great stretches of land were given to this family in the year 1177. Richard Oge de Burc, son of William, became the "Lord Justice of Ireland" under King Henry II in 1177 and was regranted the lands of his father the following year. [1]CITATION[CLOSE] O'Hart, John, Irish Pedigrees 5th Edition in 2 Volumes. Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Company, 1976. Print. (ISBN 0-8063-0737-4) Richard Mor de Burc, the older son of William, was the ancestor of the family name Bourke or Burke. They formed several septs, the two most important having been the MacWilliam Uachtar sept of county Galway, and the MacWilliam Lochtar sept of County Mayo. LF>It should be noted that not all of the family were in Ireland as some were found in Knaresborough, in the West Riding of Yorkshire in ancient times. "At the time of the Domesday Survey it formed part of the royal demesnes, and was given by the Conqueror to Serlo de Burgh, Baron of Tonsburg, in Normandy, who had accompanied that monarch into England, and by whom its stately castle, now a ruin, was originally built, on the rocky heights north of the river Nidd." [2]CITATION[CLOSE] Lewis, Samuel, A Topographical Dictionary of England. Institute of Historical Research, 1848, Print. Gilack Spelling VariationsGilack Spelling VariationsChurch officials and medieval scribes often simply spelled names as they sounded. As a result, a single person's name may have been recorded a dozen different ways during his lifetime. Spelling variations for the name Gilack include: de Burgh, Burke, Bourke, Burk, Bourk, Gillick and many more.

The Great MigrationThe Great MigrationIn the 1840s, Ireland experienced a mass exodus to North America due to the Great Potato Famine. These families wanted to escape from hunger and disease that was ravaging their homeland. With the promise of work, freedom and land overseas, the Irish looked upon British North America and the United States as a means of hope and prosperity. Those that survived the journey were able to achieve this through much hard work and perseverance. Early immigration and passenger lists revealed many bearing the name Gilack: Ann Burk who settled in Virginia in 1647; James and Tobias Burk settled in Barbados in 1680; with their servants; Elizabeth Burk settled in Maryland in 1774. MottoMottoThe motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto. Motto: Ung roy, ung foy, ung loy Motto Translation: One king, one faith, one law. Gilack Family Crest ProductsGilack Family Crest ProductsSee AlsoSee AlsoCitationsCitations

HOUSTON - TCU's J.R. Cadot grabbed his own missed shot and flipped it over his head and into the basket in a last-second attempt to lead TCU to an 81-80 win against the University of Houston men's basketball team Saturday evening inside Hofheinz Pavilion.
The loss spoiled a valiant comeback for the Cougars who trailed by eight with 1:26 remaining but rallied to take the lead with 6.8 ticks left on the clock after freshman point guard J.J. Thompson's driving layup.
The Horned Frogs appeared ready to ice the game with less than a minute in the contest. After a pair of Thompson free throws moved the Cougars to within 78-72, the Horned Frogs raced down the court and attempted to extend their lead on an alley-oop.
However, sophomore forward Alandise Harris blocked the attempt and grabbed the rebound to start the Cougar surge. Harris found redshirt freshman guard Joseph Young in transition, who buried a 3-pointer to move the Cougars to within 78-75 with 44 seconds left.
The Cougars fouled TCU's Kyan Anderson on the ensuing possession, but the Horned Frog made only 1-of-2 attempts. Young again buried another 3-pointer to bring the crowd of 3,357 to its feet and pull the Cougars to within 79-78 with 24 seconds to go.
TCU guard Hank Thorns was fouled on the ensuing possession with 15 seconds to go but missed the front end of the 1-and-1 to keep the Cougars' hopes alive. Junior forward Kirk Van Slyke snared the rebound and hit Thompson on the pass. The Irving, Texas, native raced the length of the court and put the ball up and in to give the Cougars an 80-79 advantage with 6.8 seconds remaining.
Following a TCU timeout, Cadot raced down the court. After missing his first attempt, he grabbed the offensive board and flipped the ball over his shoulder without looking at the basket as the clock wound down. The ball bounced around the rim before falling in.
Officials reviewed the game's final moments on film and confirmed that the shot was good before the clock hit 0.0.
With the loss, the Cougars dropped their second straight game and fell to 3-2. TCU improved to 4-2 overall.
Harris led the Cougars with 16 points and added four rebounds, two assists and three blocked shots. Young finished with 14 points, including four 3-pointers, while freshman forward TaShawn Thomas, junior guard Jonathon Simmons and Thompson each posted 12 points to lead the Cougars.
Thomas also led the Cougars with seven rebounds, while Young finished with a game-high six assists.
Thorns led TCU with 15 points, thanks to three 3-pointers, while Amric Fields added 14 points with a pair of treys. Garlon Green finished with 13 points, Cadot tallied 11 on the night and Anderson totaled 10 for the Horned Frogs.

Album Summary
Notes & Reviews:
On his first recording for harmonia mundi, conductor Pablo Heras-Casado, whose conducting career encompasses the great symphonic and operatic repertoire, historically informed performance and cutting-edge contemporary scores, offers a fresh look at the symphonies of Franz Schubert. Leading the period-instrument Freiburger Barockorchester, Heras-Casado pairs the light hearted Symphony No.3 of 1815, which ends with a Rossinian tarantella, with the darker Symphony No.4, written one year later and looking more towards Beethoven. Echoing the fourth symphony's subtitle, it is indeed tragic that this symphony, like all his others, was never played in public in the composer's lifetime. Principal Conductor of the Orchestra of St Luke's since 2012, Heras-Casado makes his débuts with the Metropolitan Opera and New York Philharmonic in in the 2013/14 season.
The Times, 30th August 2013
These spirited period-instruments performances of Schubert's Third and Fourth Symphonies make one wonder anew why they are heard so rarely. The rising Spanish conductor Pablo Heras-Casado and the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra strike an ideal balance between sinuous energy and surging Romantic spirit.

The Football FansLogic puzzles require you to think. You will have to be logical in your reasoning.Thirty fans hire a bus to attend a football game. On the way to the stadium, they realize that exactly half of them are fans of one team and the other half are fans of the other team. With still some way to go before reaching the stadium, the bus develops mechanical problems and the driver announces to his passengers that the only way to continue the journey is for half of them to get out and walk. There is a huge fight that doesn't stop until the driver speaks to them again and suggests a way of selecting the passengers who are to get off the bus.
"All of you," he said, "get into a big circle. When you are ready, beginning at this spot, I'll count nine people clockwise. The ninth person leaves the circle and continues on foot. Then I'll count another nine starting from where I stopped, and the ninth person leaves the circle and continues on foot. And so on until fifteen people have left the circle."

Matthew Holliman | A couple of times Date Climbed: Sep 23, 2002 | |
Been up this a couple of times. It was one of the first Sierra peaks I ever climbed; I hiked it via the standard trail on the way back from a backpacking trip to Darwin Canyon. I had the summit to myself for an hour and a half to locate almost every named feature I could find on my Yosemite park map. Nice views! Came back over Memorial Day weekend '04 (May 31st to be exact), this time to incorporate the traverse over to Mt. Gibbs. I'd intended to climb Dana Couloir, but I was pretty beat from the previous three days, so instead I just hiked up the NW "Ridge" from Glacier Canyon. Traversed on to Mt. Gibbs and back around via Dana Meadows. Unspectacular but pleasant enough. | ||

Bob Cable and I hiked in from Tioga Lake to the pillar, fired the route (first in line) and then continued along the eastern ridge to the summit. We decended down the western trail and back to Tioga lake. An exhausting day, We suffered an acute case of "Danacosis" on the decent. "Third Pillar" is a great route, but summits do matter. | ||

Miguel Carmona and I climbed a new route on the Center Headwall of Third Pillar in 1991. The route starts in a right curving dihedral at the base of the Pillar and higher up, follows the knifeblade cracks of the Headwall. The route is very aesthetic and recommended for someone, who already climbed the "Regular Route" and would like to try some free climbing mixed with a bit of aid, on a mini big wall. The 2 knifeblade crack sections could go free at 5.HARD. The setting is "Alpine Rock Par Excellence". | ||

asmrz | Route Climbed: Third Pillar, Regular Route IV, 5.10A Date Climbed: Labor Day weekend 1984 | |
Miguel Carmona and I climbed the "Regular Route" on Third Pillar in 1984. We thought it was one of the best alpine climbs we have done till then, anywhere. It helps that the route gets harder and harder as one climbs higher. Miguel just came back from doing the "NOSE" on El Capitan and felt the 5.9 pitch at the top, was just out of this world, aesthetically on the level with the Great Roof pitch on El Cap. Of course this was in the years, when 5.9/5.10 was respectable climbing. I read here that people just cruise it nowadays solo, wow...it's on this trip, that Miguel told me about climbing the central Headwall one day (see One that almost got away). I was so afraid of it, that it took us 7 years to do it. The Regular Route is another Eastern Sierra gem that should not be missed by anyone. | ||

Fun climb of Dana Couloir. Great weather, but cold. There was a lot of water ice in the couloir, but the bergrschrund was very easily passed. We used an ice tool and a mountaineering axe each, along with six screws and some nuts for belay anchors near the rock. As many people have said, it is very important to go over the summit. It looks like you can follow the broad ridge northwest to the Dana Plateau, but a crumbly cliff behind some pillars blocks your way. Go over the summit! | ||

John | Route Climbed: Dana Couloir Date Climbed: July 21, 2002 | |
Fun climb with Dirk. Climbed in 5 pitches with the last being a low angle (25°?) snow walk to the top of the couloir. On the ice, I used a mixture of French technique, German technique, and the 3 o'clock position. For French and 3 o'clock, I used the cross-body axe technique which I found to be very effective. I haven't convinced myself to point my toes downward for French yet though ;-) We ended up using just one long axe each though we both brought an extra tool just in case. For pro, we brought 8 screws consisting of: BD Express, Grivel 360°, and Omega Pacific CR-MO (with coffee grinder handle). Like brandon, we opted not to summit ... which I now believe is harder (no trail all the way to Tioga Road and some 4-5th class downclimbing) and definately longer than going over the summit to descend via the standard use trail or Glacier Canyon (NW Ridge). If you do this route and don't descend the couloir, I agree with brandon: "go over the summit!!!!" | ||

Solo Trip up Dana Couloir. This was a fun climb, with the season's first hint of true water ice. Actually, it was more than a hint, but rather a wide smear up the middle of the couloir for about 300-400 ft. Strangely, it was tougher than it would have been if it had been steeper. Perhaps I need to get better at my French technique, as Chouinard I am certainly not (also tough with a sore, recently twisted ankle, but no excuses...). So, I front pointed and found it not steep enough to use the picks on my axe. Above the couloir, this mountain is a choss heap of the highest magnitude. The scramble up to the summit was brutally loose and nasty. The views are pretty hard to beat though and the couloir is worthwhile for an introduction to alpine ice climbing, but it's not nearly as interesting as say the North Couloir on North Peak in good condition (or maybe even the Crescent Moon on Round Top). | ||

Stayed above the main Glacier Canyon trail most of the time. Went up the rocks above Dana Lake and traversed Dana Glacier to the base of the coulior. Except for one icy spot, the snow was perfect. Descended along the northwest ridge to the crag above Tioga Lake, where we had a few good glissade runs. | ||

Climbed Dana couloir from Tioga Lake. Pascal, Giona and Yves-Alain. Dana couloir is in perfect condition: hard snow, no ice. Thin layer of fresh snow. Lack of snow just beneath Dana lake. We also skied Ellery bowl. Snow in Ellery bowl is wet but skiing it is ok. Cornice is large on the west side. East side is without cornice. | ||

Did this hike/climb as a day trip from/to Tioga Pass entrance station (Yosemite NP). Round-trip took about 6 hours, or so. Views from the top were very nice; could see all the major peaks on east side of Yosemite NP, and Mono Lake really well. Nice little day trip! | ||

Well, what to say, either very exciting or very boring depending on how much snow and ice you've climbed. Didn't go over summit, descended next valley over, which puts you about 4 miles back over in toulomne, a long walk back to tioga lake, go over the summit!!!! | ||

Detailed Description:
Because of its extremely high morbidity and mortality, it is imperative to look for new antifungal therapies to treat mucormycosis. The agents of mucormycosis are exquisitely sensitive to iron availability, and we and others have demonstrated that iron chelation therapy improves the survival of rodents with mucormycosis. Deferasirox (Exjade) is the first orally bioavailable iron chelator approved for use in the United States (US) by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), with an indication for treatment of iron overload from chronic transfusions. In clinical studies, deferasirox has been well tolerated and effective in iron-overloaded patients.
Although the safety and efficacy of deferasirox have been extensively evaluated in iron-overloaded patients, there are minimal data in non-iron-overloaded patients or in infected patients. Therefore, the safety and efficacy of deferasirox in patients with mucormycosis is unclear, and confirming safety in the current study, at the currently planned dose, is required to lay the groundwork for a future phase III clinical trial.
This is a prospective, phase II, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study of liposomal amphotericin B (LAmB; AmBisome) plus deferasirox vs. LAmB plus placebo for mucormycosis infection. Twenty patients with proven or probable mucormycosis (except for isolated skin infection) by consensus EORTC/MSG criteria, who have received less than 14 days of antifungal therapy for mucormycosis, and who have had radiographic imaging by CT or MRI within the past 72 hours that shows evidence of infection, will be randomized to receive LAmB plus deferasirox or placebo (n = 10 per arm), with randomization stratified by study site.
The primary objective is to determine the safety and tolerability of adjunctive deferasirox therapy in patients being treated with LAmB for mucormycosis, and to obtain exploratory data on the efficacy of the iron chelation treatment. The exploratory efficacy endpoint will be the global response rate (composite of clinical and radiographic response) at end of study drug administration, as determined by a blinded adjudication committee.
Ages Eligible for Study: | 2 Years and older (Child, Adult, Senior) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age greater than 2 years.
- Proven or probable invasive mucormycosis, as defined by modification of consensus European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC)/Mycosis Study Group (MSG) criteria. In brief, proven mucormycosis is defined as: 1) histopathologic or cytopathologic examination showing broad-based, aseptate, ribbon-like hyphae consistent with Mucorales from needle aspiration or biopsy specimen, with evidence of associated tissue damage (either microscopically or unequivocally by imaging); OR 2) a positive culture result for a sample obtained by sterile procedure from normally sterile and clinically or radiologically abnormal site consistent with infection, excluding urine and mucous membranes. Probable mucormycosis is defined as: 1) an at-risk host; AND 2) positive culture, cytology, or polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test (run at a CLIA-certified clinical microbiology laboratory) from sputum, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), endoscopy/colonoscopy, or sinus aspirate/biopsy; AND 3) 1 major or 2 minor clinical criteria.
- Radiographic study by Computerized Tomography (CT) or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has been obtained within 4 calendar days prior to enrollment and shows evidence of infection (i.e. focal nodule, mass, or abscess, or enhancement, or evidence of tissue edema or destruction that is not attributed to post-surgical reaction).
- Subject or authorized decision maker able to provide informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria:
- High likelihood of death within the 48 h after enrollment (investigator's discretion).
- High likelihood of death due to factors unrelated to mucormycosis (e.g. due to uncontrolled and/or relapsed malignancy, severe graft versus host disease, other underlying diseases, etc.) within 30 days following enrollment (investigator's discretion).
- Patient unable to receive enteral medication (oral or via feeding tube).
- Infection limited to the supra-fascial skin (skin lesions in the presence of disseminated disease, deep invasive tissue infection spreading from a primary skin site, or subcutaneous infections extending to fascia are allowed).
- Patient has received > 14 days of polyene antifungal therapy (i.e. amphotericin B deoxycholate, liposomal amphotericin B, amphotericin B lipid complex, or amphotericin B colloidal dispersion) at the time of screening.
- Patient is already taking deferasirox therapy for any reason at the time of screening.
- Patient is allergic to or intolerant of deferasirox or LAmB.
- Patient has significant renal dysfunction at the time of screening, defined as serum creatinine of > 3 mg/dL or a calculated creatinine clearance of < 30 ml/min (by the Cockroft-Gault formula: (140 - age (yrs) * wt (kg)) * 0.85 (for females) / (72 * serum creatinine (mg/dL)).
- Patient has significant hepatic dysfunction at the time of screening, defined as BOTH an AST or ALT > 10 times the upper limit of normal, AND a direct (not total) bilirubin > 5 times the upper limit of normal.
- Women of child-bearing potential (those with menses within the last year) with a positive serum pregnancy test.
- Enrollment refused by the primary physician.

MailWasher Pro
Generic Company Place Holder MailWasher Pro
What's the most annoying thing about e-mail? Spam, of course. There are plenty of spam-killers out there, and MailWasher Pro is a very solid one. It doesn't integrate with your e-mail software; instead, it directly contacts your e-mail server, and will then delete spam so that the spam never reaches your inbox. It flags spam, then lets you delete the spam, or tells the software to let it through because it's not spam. You also have the choice of bouncing the spam back to the sender.
Because it doesn't need to integrate with your e-mail software, it works with virtually any e-mail software. And it's quite configurable. You can create customized filters for determining what's spam, and you create blacklists and whitelists. MailWasher Pro also learns from you, so that it gets smarter over time. In addition, it does basic virus-scanning. You can also read the actual mail itself from within the program, and so it works as a kind of mini e-mail client.

None of these brands have more than half of their locations turning a profit. Rutkauskas is in it for the sale of the franchise only. Royalties are poor based on low sales and many poor soles have lost their life savings investing in a Beautiful Brand. So sad that this facade is still being fueled through the media.
UnhappyFranchis... replied on Permalink
Update on this story. A report alleges David Rutkauskas' Twitter followers are mostly fakes:http://www.unhappyfranchisee.c...The story states that BBI has over 250 stores open. their websites only list 73.The "partner" brands listed in the last paragraph are mostly gone: Cazs Chowhouse, Dixie Cream Donut Co., Ludgers Bavarian Cakery, CherryBerry Self-Serve Yogurt Bar, Sushi Freak, Top That! Pizza, Smallcakes A Cupcakery, must have jumped ship.I don't think MyCamilles, and Fresco Wood Fired Italian Kitchen ever existed - they were just ideas never developed, it seems.Ask a lot of questions and do thorough due diligence:http://www.unhappyfranchisee.c...

With you Ice Ice Baby! Illinois is trying mature fast because they have Neb, Wisc, and Mich St on deck...I think those are 3 losses...But, they did play Wash close on a neutral field. I think their goal is to make a bowl game. plus, a win over Miami will beat their 2012 record by one.
I see a very focused Illinois team dominating every aspect of this game...for the home fans...
Miami is just awful. Shot their load last week, playing the Bearcats close.

Arkansas Hunting Photos & Stories
Every hunter likes to share stories about their experiences afield and many hunters like to hear these stories. The Photos & Stories section of BigGameHunt.net (BGH) allows hunters to share their hunting adventures in the form of stories and photos. Please feel free to browse, read, and contribute to this section of BGH.
Two Years in the Taking Earl Garrison III Back in the Summer of 2009 I was going to be hunting a City wide area hunt that happens every two years. It was Hot Mid summer time, and I set my feeder up early. I Wanted to get the deer coming to the feeder well before season. I set my Bushnell game camera up to watch what was coming in to eat. For weeks I pulled the chips from my camera and watched Doe after Doe feeding. Most of them coming in around 10am, and just before dark. |
Arkansas Double-Bearded Tom Scott Pettit My morning started out the same as the past mornings in south Arkansas. No birds gobbling at daylight, so I sat listening. Not a sound in ear range for more than two hours. Trying all the calls in my pack with my alum slate in hand. There he was 300 yards away talking back, then 200 yards. |
Arkansas Youth Deer Hunt Paulette Sullivent Matt Vaughan, age 12 of Camden, Arkansas, killed this 6 point, Nov. 15, 2008, in Ouachita County, Arkansas. He killed it at 200 yds with a 30-30. Matt has been hunting for with his dad for several years. He was hunting by himself when he shot this deer. |
Arkansas Youth Deer Hunting Success Robert Gurley My stepdad Scott, my brother Daniel, my neighbor Robert and I were driving to our deer stands in Athens Arkansas. Scott saw a deer. I couldn't see it. It got up and ran off. We got out of the truck and walked into the woods to take a look. Scott turned to walk back to the truck. Another deer stood up to see what was going on. I could see that it was a buck. |
My First 25th Hour Black Bear Granville E. Moad Jr. "Mac" I left my house already tired but excited at 4:00 am Saturday the 20th of September, headed for my buddy Brad's house in Booneville, Arkansas. I couldn't sleep the night before so I spent most of the night watching Buckmaster deer hunting videos. The 4-wheeler, the climbing stand, the bow, and backpack was loaded in the truck and as my drive ahead was about 1 1/2 hours, I kept thinking "today feels good." |
Korean Pheasant Hunt Elisse & Dan Clark My husband and I hunted pheasant recently (March 2008) on Jeju Island, in Korea! Dan is US Army Retired, and had told me how he had hunted there when he was stationed in Korea many years ago... back when Jeju (or Cheju as it is sometimes spelled) was basically wilderness... Jeju Island is now a vacation paradise of 5-star resorts, but there is still hunting (even for foreign tourists!) at the Daeyoo Land Hunting Preserve! I was planning our very belated "Honeymoon" in Asia, and I was determined to finally get to go hunting with my husband! |
The Old Man and the Hound Norm 'Leep' Leeper Jr. Jack drove his old jeep down the dirt road carefully. Since no one lived along this road anymore but old Tom, the highway department seldom serviced it. He guessed it didn't really matter much as old Tom didn't drive much anymore. Perhaps once a month when his retirement check came in. Then he would come into town driving that old rickety truck and cash his check, buy some groceries and collect his mail. |

Whether or not it's true, the French have a reputation for thinking their solutions are, well, supérieur. But ask France's top managers who is the most successful CEO of a French company, and many would point to a 56-year-old Welshman. Since taking the reins of L'Oréal (LORLY ) in 1988, Lindsay Owen-Jones has transformed the Paris-based group into a multinational powerhouse, the ExxonMobil of cosmetics. And in one of the roughest patches for European industry in a decade, Owen-Jones is showing just how strong L'Oréal is. Last year's sales were $12.6 billion, marking the 17th year in a row L'Oréal has seen double-digit sales and earnings growth, a track record few can match in European business.
Only a manager as consumingly competitive as Owen-Jones, who in his spare time pilots helicopters and races a 77-foot sailing sloop, could have accomplished such a feat. When he joined L'Oréal in 1969, 90% of its sales were in Western Europe. Today the company has a presence in 150 countries.
Walk into the toniest shops of Houston, Shanghai, or Mombasa, and you'll find L'Oréal brands like Maybelline, Lancôme, Vichy, and Garnier, most of them picked up in a string of acquisitions that last year included New York's Kiehl's brand and Japan's Shu Uemura. Maybelline, bought in 1996, shows Owen-Jones' savvy. Criticized by some for paying $760 million for a downmarket U.S. brand, Owen-Jones' crew forged Maybelline into a global leader. Over half its sales are now outside the U.S., and it is the No. 1 makeup in China. As they say in Paris, pas mal.

The next full-length from Flying Lotus, Until the Quiet Comes, is on the horizon for an October 2 release. Until that drops, though, FlyLo is staying busy: "I'm kind of producing the new Thundercat stuff, kind of producing stuff for Shabazz Palaces and Azizi Gibson," the latter of whom Lotus signed to his Brainfeeder label in March.
Recently speaking with Complex about a slew of topics--among them his past and potentially future collaborative work--Flying Lotus broke down what else he's been up to musically.
On working with other members of Odd Future following "Between Friends" with Earl Sweatshirt:
I'm talking with a few other dudes like Domo [Genesis] and I really want to do a track with Tyler. He's a tricky one, man, 'cause he has his hands in a lot of jars and he's very particular about who he works with and when he works with people. We've been pals for quite some time. He knows I'm here. He knows I'm around.
On possibly working with the Weeknd:
Yeah, me and The Weeknd have talked a bunch about things. There are some potential ideas he had and I'm all game for it. It might be too soon to say exactly what, but I'd say we will connect on some things.
On working with Thom Yorke again:
We have pretty good communication and we talk on e-mail often. But I figured he wouldn't be super enthusiastic about collaborating again because has so much going on and there are a million other people he could be working with. I felt very honored he wanted to work together again and it was very nice to have him back.
On the potential for a joint album with Erykah Badu:
I'm not sure what's going to happen anymore because she's so busy, but hopefully we can connect because I'm game for it. To be honest, the only thing that came out of it was the track on my album. We have drafts and sketches of things but I really don't think I can produce and direct an entire album unless we have time to be in the same space for a little while.

CDO/Hibernate Store/Quick Start
The quick start of the CDO Hibernate Store takes you through the following steps:
- download and install
- download example projects from cvs
- start the CDO Server
- run client side junit tests to see interaction between the client and server
Download and install
Download the required software:
- Eclipse 3.6 (Helios), as Eclipse 3.6 is in development try the development tab
- EMF 2.6, is normally included with the java EE version of Eclipse
- CDO Nightly build, click on Nxyz (where xyz is a date) to open the nightly build location. The easiest is to download the all features and plugins zip: emf-cdo-AllFeaturesAndPlugins-N201001181004.zip (with a different date in your case ofcourse)
- Teneo 1.2.0, Teneo 1.2.0 can be found a little down on the page
- Hibernate 3.3.2 or later and JDBC drivers, pick the latest ThirdPartyDrivers zip file
Install Eclipse and the plugins, see: Eclipse p2 getting started.
Download the example projects from cvs
After installing Eclipse and the plugins, start Eclipse and in a workspace import/download the following three projects from CVS:
- org.eclipse.emf.cdo.examples.company: contains the example model which has already been prepared for CDO (see here how this is done)
- org.eclipse.emf.cdo.examples.hibernate.server: contains the server configuration and server launch config
- org.eclipse.emf.cdo.examples.hibernate.client: shows client connection code and contains junit tests creating and querying for data
The cvs location of these projects is:
- dev.eclipse.org
- /cvsroot/modeling
- paths:
- org.eclipse.emf/org.eclipse.emf.cdo/examples/org.eclipse.emf.cdo.examples.company
- org.eclipse.emf/org.eclipse.emf.cdo/examples/org.eclipse.emf.cdo.examples.hibernate.server
- org.eclipse.emf/org.eclipse.emf.cdo/examples/org.eclipse.emf.cdo.examples.hibernate.client
Start the CDO server
To start the CDO server open the org.eclipse.emf.cdo.examples.hibernate.server project and right-click on the CDOHibernateServer.launch and then: Run As > CDOHibernateServer.
Check the console view, after 5-10 seconds you should see:
main [debug.lifecycle.dump] DUMP TCPAcceptor@20 Acceptor.config = TransportConfig[receiveExecutor=java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor@46f93, bufferProvider=BufferPool[4,096], protocolProvider=org.eclipse.net4j.ContainerProtocolProvider$Server@139358c, negotiator=null] Acceptor.connectorListener = org.eclipse.spi.net4j.Acceptor$1@ea9bc8 Acceptor.acceptedConnectors = selector = TCPSelector startSynchronously = true synchronousStartTimeout = 20000 serverSocketChannel = sun.nio.ch.ServerSocketChannelImpl[/0.0.0.0:2036] address = 0.0.0.0 port = 2036 [INFO] Net4j extension started [INFO] CDO server started Application Started: 8521
As a default the CDO Hibernate server uses hsqldb.
For your info, the CDO server uses the config file: cdo-server.xml in the config directory in the org.eclipse.emf.cdo.examples.hibernate.server project.
Run client side code
As a last step run some client side code to see the CDO server storing and retrieving data. Open the org.eclipse.emf.cdo.examples.server.hibernate.client project, go to the junit classes in the src directory:
- QuickStartTest: a very simple test which creates one resource and stores a new address in it
- HibernateQueryTest: extensive test which creates a complete test data set and then show various HQL queries.
do right click on one of these two classes and then: Run As > Junit Test.

The Bachelor 2013 Sean Lowe Preview 2/5/13 – Week 5 Part 2
The Bachelor was filled with drama on last night's episode. Tierra is the bachelorette that is high maintenance and can't seem to get along with any of the other women. We have the complete recap here!
We saw Sean whisking the remaining 11 bachelorettes away to picturesque Whitefish, Montana, to explore his romantic connections.
Annoying Tierra and sweet natured Jackie face off in the dramatic two-on-one date and Jackie was sent home. The Bachelor attempts to escalate his relationship with Lindsay to new heights when the couple takes an astounding helicopter ride over the gorgeous mountains of Montana's Glacier National Park.
Eight women get competed in a Montana relay race, including milking goats, with the winning team getting to spend more time with Sean. Only Sean ended up getting the losing team to spend more time with him and even gave Daniella a rose right then and there.
Tierra continues to cause a firestorm in the house, leaving Sean to worry if he will ever find his wife. In tonight's episode it looks like the ladies will be freezing their beautiful bikini bodies off and Tierra seems to be hurt – even needing oxygen to help her breath.
We will have the recap up before the show even begins so be sure to come back and see who is eliminated.
The second part of "The Bachelor" special event, will air on a special night and time, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 5 (9:00-11:00 p.m., ET).

Two kinds of just-cooked peas and an Asian dressing make one delicious salad.
Leave a Review
Delicious. My 3yr & 6yo could not get enough. I added some sauteed pearl onions and sesame seeds when I made it for a baby shower and everyone wanted the recipe. ** Make sure to use unseasoned rice vinegar. If all you have is seasoned (has sugar added) then you will need to reduce the brown sugar. Enjoy!
Recipe was nice but it was too sweet. I will make it again but would only use a tsp of sugar instead of tbsp
I added ginger and garlic to mine besides some shallot. I increased the flavor by adding an additional 1/2 those of sesame oil. It definitely enhanced the flavor.
I agree with others this is OK. I got good comments from the family but it seemed to lack something. I am trying to figure our what would brighten the whole dish just that little bit that it seemed to need. It was good enough that I saved it to my recipe box to try again with some changes. Maybe add fresh cilantro? I'll let you know.
A good -- not great -- dish. Does not have BIG flavor. However, it was a refreshingly crunchy side dish for a picnic.
This recipe is great - I like to saute the snap peas from my garden in olive oil instead of boiling them. I omit the other peas, and just use the snap peas with the vinaigrette, and it tastes great.
This recipe is my favorite way to prepare the fresh snap peas from my garden. The recipe is delicious as written.
This is good. Not fantastic, but good (although the wife loves it). I substituted shelled edamame for peas because that was all I had on hand, & that was super tasty. Also added scallions and ginger because it seemed right.
Quick and easy and incredibly tasty. Both my sugar snap peas and english peas are bountiful in the garden this year, and this recipe is a perfect excuse to grow even more next year!
I made this with only sugar snap peas bc that is all I had (I used about 1 1/3 lbs). Also I added 1/2 cup toasted sesame seeds. That added really great dimension and it looks pretty too.

Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)
Anyhow, to get to the point, I've been searching for a dark grey / black boot for a while now that is similar to the Augusta's I would love to own (at least I *think* I would.. last pair I ordered didn't work for me and I returned 'em). Basically something fairly slim profile (sorry I can't into the bulbous toeboxes everyone seems to love these days) with some light distressing and a thick sole. Something you can wear with jeans, cords, whatever, and be a bit edgy but not too conspicuously "hey I'm into fashion" so it still works in a casual environment.
A couple weeks ago I found these HTC (Hollywood Trading Company) back-zips at Yoox, marked down from the ~$800 I'd seen 'em for at some euro store online. I gave 'em a try and I gotta say think I've finally found my non-baller baller replacement boot:
They have a matte finish and basic cut/pattern so they're not too flashy, a pretty decent thick sole and some light distressing. The sole shape is also quite nice IMO - slim but not too pointy. Leather is very soft and they come with a vibram rubber sole and heel by default, which is kind of nice. On the downside, because the leather is not the super thick stuff on true baller footwear, these will never have the beautiful creasing of an aged CCP / Guidi / Augusta. But at 1/4 the cost and with the styling I'm after I think I can take the tradeoff.
Here are a couple fit pics. One downside is that the distressing on these was a bit irregular - the left one is more distressed than the right. Not too visible except close up.. but yeah.. not true baller quality for $400. Other downside was that the leather flap over the back zip was initially too wide and caused some rubbing, but I trimmed it down and now they're quite comfortable. I should also mention that the comfort is pretty great on these because they are quite soft and they're only ankle boots, so your foots maintains a lot of freedom of movement.
I completely see where you are coming from. The issue i ran into when I received my CCP is that i couldn't wear them with regular jeans which are slim but the leg opening wasnt as slim as i'd like to be at the time. Hence, i got myself a pair of ZB/RO and Levi's 511 which all worked really well. My A1923 are a bit of the bulbous toe you speak of and with slim jeans the toe box becomes more pronounced. CCP never gave that effect.
From the look you are describing, it sounds more like an Ann D, YSL, Dior look, a bit clean but with some edge. In which case, some brands like a1923/L0 wont always work. But, i think guidi/MA+ would be just fine because they are a bit more clean. Anyways, the HTC boots look great and you did whats right for you. Those a1923 you linked have a very similar last to the HTC. Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show) .
I think you never need more than 2 distressed boots at a time in your collection and most often times you can pass of a MC boot into sw&d.

By. Daniel J. Graeber of Oilprice.com
The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries in its report for January said the United States in 2013 may post the highest oil supply increase among non-member states. U.S. oil production should increase by 490,000 barrels of oil per day this year to reach an average of 10.4 million bpd. OPEC said much of the production increase should come from more drilling in the Gulf of Mexico and the oil boom under way in North Dakota. Production from member states Iran, Iraq and Saudi Arabia, meanwhile, declined. Riyadh said recently it wasn't trying to manipulate the commodities market and, given the downbeat assessment of the U.S. economy, it may be congressional leaders that eventually face the ultimate blame for economic woes despite the oil boom.
OPEC in its January report said it expected U.S. oil supply to increase in 2013. This sentiment was supported by increased drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. Oil supply levels in North Dakota, meanwhile, continued to set records while onshore production in Texas showed what the cartel said was "healthy growth." U.S. oil supply in 2013 is expected to increase by nearly 5 percent to 10.44 million bpd, which OPEC said was the highest projected increase for non-member states.
For OPEC members, overall crude oil production was down more than 1.5 percent from November figures to settle at 30.37 million bpd in December. The cartel said production fell in Iraq, Iran and Saudi Arabia. Riyadh had defended allegations it was trying to manipulate commodity markets when it cut its own crude oil production by nearly 5 percent. The oil-rich kingdom has kept markets stabilized in the past, mostly recently when Libya was shut out of the oil markets by war. But given the increase in production from non-OPEC members, and following reports from Citigroup the kingdom may become a net importer, Riyadh may simply be making room for emerging oil majors like the United States.
Overall, world oil demand for 2013 remains unchanged according to OPEC at 800,000 bpd. The cartel, however, said it expected a marginal decline of 200,000 bpd compared to 2012 for OPEC crude. The modest adjustments follow estimates from OPEC that the global economy will grow by 0.2 percent to 3.2 percent in 2013. That's unchanged from OPEC's market report in December. China, Japan, and even the Eurozone, are all expected to show some level of growth this year.
The emergence of the United States as a global oil leader, however, adds virtually nothing to stimulate the nation's economy, according to OPEC. OPEC said its growth expectations for the U.S. economy remained at 2.0 percent, unchanged from December's report. The cartel said U.S. oil consumption, a reflection of economic health, could return to negative territory if congressional leaders are unable to settle ongoing fiscal issues related to the debt ceiling. The U.S. Treasury Department last year averted a fiscal disaster by taking some measures to ease debt concerns. The cartel said if no solutions are found to the pending financial chaos, however, the U.S. economy may take a hit on its gross domestic product. Fitch Ratings this week said the U.S. credit rating is in jeopardy should negotiations on the debt ceiling go nowhere. For OPEC, meanwhile, there are fears of "major uncertainty" in the U.S. economy.

Specificity / Sensitivity
Phospho-IGF-I Receptor β (Tyr1131)/Insulin Receptor β (Tyr1146) Antibody detects endogenous levels of Tyr1131-phosphorylated IGF-I receptor and Tyr1146-phosphorylated insulin receptor. The antibody cross-reacts with activated PDGF, FGF and EGF receptors, ErbB2 and c-Met.
Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat Species predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology: BovineSource / Purification
Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to residues of human IGF-I Receptor β. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.
Type I insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-IR) is a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase that is widely expressed in many cell lines and cell types within fetal and postnatal tissues (1-3). Receptor autophosphorylation follows binding of the IGF-I and IGF-II ligands. Three tyrosine residues within the kinase domain (Tyr1131, Tyr1135, and Tyr1136) are the earliest major autophosphorylation sites (4). Phosphorylation of these three tyrosine residues is necessary for kinase activation (5,6). Insulin receptors (IRs) share significant structural and functional similarity with IGF-I receptors, including the presence of an equivalent tyrosine cluster (Tyr1146/1150/1151) within the kinase domain activation loop. Tyrosine autophosphorylation of IRs is one of the earliest cellular responses to insulin stimulation (7). Autophosphorylation begins with phosphorylation at Tyr1146 and either Tyr1150 or Tyr1151, while full kinase activation requires triple tyrosine phosphorylation (8).

The Organized President
When Jefferson wanted a job done right, he did it himself
July/August 1991 | Volume 42, Issue 4
He alphabetized it by going through his original index and picking out first the ab s, then the ac s, and on down through the alphabet. Each item was checked off the old index as he copied it. This was a painstakingly slow process, for he had to read the entire column for each item he sorted. Occasionally he missed an item and had to squeeze it in.
He completed the new index down to the K s and stopped, and there it sits today like an abandoned halfcut jewel. Why he failed to complete it can only be guessed. The most probable reason was that it was still unfinished when he sold it to the government with his other books in 1815.
There tire two even more puzzling questions: Why did he go through the incredible amount of work to index this book in the first place, and why weren't the two indexes in the book when he sold it?
The answer to the first question is undoubtedly that Jefferson was an inveterate indexer; he indexed account books, journals, and memo- randum books. Making lists, classifying, ordering, collecting, and saving were symptoms of his compulsive personality. Indexing was not merely utilitarian; it was a necessity. He carried a notebook with him constantly and recorded in it every cent he received or spent, and he filed these books away annually for more than sixty years. He owned one of the largest personal libraries in the nation, arranged according to his own adaptation of Francis Bacon's classification of knowledge, a system that was to be used by the Library of Congress for a hundred years. Jefferson's correspondence was so perfectly filed that he boasted that he could find any letter in a matter of minutes. He ordered his life this way, not because he wished to but because he had to.
The incomplete index shows, in addition, that the physical act of writing it was an aesthetic pleasure. If he had completed it, he would have produced a thing of beauty.
And this, perhaps, provides an answer to the second question. It was uncharacteristic of Jefferson not to include the indexes with the book when it was sold, for he was normally generous in giving others the benefit of his knowledge and studies. But by his perfectionist standards his stage-two index was sloppy, and the stagethree index was unfinished and therefore defective.
I like to imagine the moment when he held Barton's Botany in one hand and his indexes in the other and, after hesitating perhaps only the blink of an eye, made the decision to lay aside the indexes, later to be filed away with his personal papers.
I see that moment as a delicate pivot point where pride and humility, privacy and generosity, restraint and impulse were suspended in a fine balance before collapsing into a decision that for most of us might have been silly, and even irrational, but for Thomas Jefferson was exactly, inevitably right.
