39.944736 -75.158909Ultra Hair Studio is now in Fairmount and the salon still offers the same personalized service it is known for. I have been a client for years and my experience is consistently excellent. Sharyn is a precision hair cutter and a fantastic colorist. I look forward to my appointments at Ultra. I have fun hanging out, and walk out the door with fantastic hair.
Only salon I'll ever go to ever again!.
A couple of weeks ago I went to CHOP SHOP on South Street and had about 10 inches cut off to donate. I was so unhappy with the haircut they gave me... I completely regretted having made the decision to cut my hair at all. I went to Ultra and asked them to do something, ANYTHING, to make me feel better about it. I had been there before one or two times and loved the haircuts I got with my long hair. Sharon was so understanding. She looked at the haircut and said it was a good cut (didn't try to blame the other salon at all) but also understood that even though it was a *good* cut, that if I wasn't happy with it then it just wasn't right for me. Then she told me that the only way she would be able to do anything would be to cut it even shorter, which I had expected. I was sort of nervous to cut it shorter after having such a traumatic experience days before, and Sharon could tell that. She even wanted me to think about it overnight and come back the next day if I definitely wanted to cut it shorter, just so that I wouldn't make another regrettable decision! I had confidence in her though, so I said to go ahead and go shorter. She asked me to explain every area that I didn't like, and went to work. I was 110% happier with my new haircut afterwards! To top it off, Sharon very graciously offered to keep trimming it up for free every week or so until it gets to a length where she can do more with it. She was true to her word and I had my first touch-up this past weekend. I can't wait for my hair to grow back so I can get a real haircut, not just a fixer! I strongly recommend Ultra to anyone who wants an amazing haircut and salon experience without paying over $100 and having expensive products shoved down your throat like many other salons!
*Also wanted to mention that Sharon also is very good at picking her employees. I've had haircuts from two other stylists there when my hair was long and I was equally pleased with the experience.
Honesty is the best policy..
One of my favorite reviews which you can read below...
.......Ultra Hair Studio a locally owned business that makes Washington Square West a real neighborhood. A better neighborhood. They are as friendly as can be. They appreciate your business and treat you really well. They're warm and welcoming to every client who walks in. No pretensions. Their dogs are adorable. The salon is charming and creativly decorated.
You're supporting an independent business that sincerely cares about its clients, its staff, and its neighborhood. Love it! They also do great hair at reasonable prices!!!!!!!!
Sharon is a stole customers!. Hi! If you are looking for Susan she has been let go by the jerk-off owner! She has taken all of Susan's clients. While Sue was off for six weeks after having surgery. Sharon has told susan not to return and taken all of her clients. Susan is a mother of four children and has had her livelihood stolen from her by this greedy witch.
best cut and color.
Sharon has been cutting my hair for 20 years! She does the best color...She has colored my hair black, red, brown and currently I'm a blond (which works great with my grey).
The atmosphere is down to earth and fun. Always great music playing and interesting conversations. Kevin does a great job with the decor. It is also in a great location, if I drive I can normally find street parking within a block away.
Check it out!!!

Absolutely the best cut and color ever!. I had been going to another salon for years, and was so disappointed when my cut no longer looked fresh. Looking for a new stylist, Kevin was recommended by a friend. He took one look at my hair and said simply, "Let me show you what I think is wrong"...and he did, and more importantly, he gave me what is oh so right. I have the most amazing cut and color and am constantly complimented on the look. Kevin is wonderful. The salon is wonderful. The cut is wonderful. I highly recommend Kevin and this salon. Did I say I love this place? I do. I do. I do.
Mens cuts with an EDGE !.
Amazing! This place is booked for weeks for a good reason, they do an amazing job. I had to grab a haircut for a big event and even though she said they were super booked but fit me in THAT DAY. They have a new customer for life.
I had SUSAN cut my hair. Im a guy and I like that she was QUICK and knew how to use the clippers. I have since had many hair cuts with Susan and like it long or short. Check it out. Punk rock girl!
Thank You Kevin!. Just went to Ultra for the first time and I am very happy. I was tired of my sad "mommy ponytail", and was ready for my first short cut in years. First of all, let me just say that my hair is very difficult to cut. I have tons of fine, curly hair and my head is loaded with crazy calics. Kevin took the time for a great personal consult and really delivered with a new look that is flattering and effortless. Thank you Kevin and Salon Ultra!!!
the best haircut you'll ever get. I have gotten my hair cut three times by Sharyn at Ultra. Each time the complements are endless, even months later! She really knows what she's doing (with ALL hair types) and you can trust her to give you a superb cut even if you don't know exactly what you want (I never do). The salon has a laid back, quirky vibe that is a breath of fresh air. I recommend this place to anyone and everyone.

The Love Menu
Candlelight for Two
Imagine the scene: candlelight flickers in the softly lit dining room of your favorite romantic restaurant. Seated opposite you, just beyond a bottle of the finest Italian wine, is the person that has propelled your stomach into somersaults for the last two weeks. You feel yourself tumbling into that heady feeling of lust, as every word your dining partner utters seems both amusing and profound. In unison, you both raise a glass, toasting the future and whatever it may bring. . . .
That amazing angel of light sitting across from you flashes you a huge, loving smile when—wait a minute!—you notice something. What the hell is that?! Stuck between the glistening white teeth of that smile you have loved for all of two weeks, you spy evidence you wish you hadn't: a tiny piece of meat is staring at you as a grim, grinning reminder of the one thing you had chosen to ignore so far.
Your date eats dead animals, and you do not.
The Love That Dare Not Speak Its Name
It's a cold, hard fact that veggies are in the minority (for the moment!), so before you even start to wonder if a gorgeous, loving veggie is into you, you have to find one. The quest is not so bad if you live in large cosmopolitan city like New York or London, where you may have many veggies with whom to socialize and connect.
But what about folks in smaller town, where tofu may not be on the tip of anyone's tongue and Seitan is someone clad in red horns, pitchfork and a tail? For something that is clearly the only way to ensure other living beings do not suffer, veganism is still relatively rare. But this reality is slowly changing, and if we are to expand our numbers and ensure that the humane choice also becomes the popular choice, then maybe reaching out to non-veggies isn't such a sin after all.
Spread the Seed of Thought
I have read that Ingrid Newkirk, founder and president of PeTA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals), forbade veggie employees to date one another and requested that they instead go out into the world and date people from the dark side (read, meat-eaters) and bring them to the light.
Whether this story is true or not, I have to say I like the point of it. You love whom you love, and if that's another veggie, great! You are lucky, indeed. But to dismiss other people on the grounds of their present choices may not be doing the cause or yourself any favors. I have never had a serious relationship with a vegetarian or vegan, but what I have found is that the meat-eaters I have dated have, on the whole, respected my choices and either cut back or completely cut out meat and animal products from their own diet.
It doesn't take an intelligent person long to discover that an animal-free diet is a healthier one. The benefits of vegan diet are too numerous to cover here, but, just as your cholesterol levels drop, your dating partner's enthusiasm for the cause may rise.
The More, The Merrier
I believe that a veggie who dates/lives with/marries a meat-eater who then reduces or eliminates animal products from his or her diet is doing double-duty on the animal care front. I have a Viva (Vegetarian International Voice for Animals) T-shirt somewhere that tells me how many animals lives have been saved by me being veggie. I'd like to add to that tally, by proxy, all those animal lives that have been saved because someone listened to what I had to say and took action, too.
Of course, there will always be people who will not agree with you—nor even meet you a quarter of the way. They will take great delight in waving a steak-laden fork in your face and taunt, "I bet you'd love to eat this, really." Such a partner is undesirable, not just because of his or her eating habits, but because he or she blatantly disrespects you and your beliefs, and that situation spells doom for any relationship.
A Happy Ending
As vegetarians or vegans, we have to hope that those with whom we fall in love will share our views or at least be willing to understand and incorporate them into their lives, too. If they don't, and we decide to wait for that compassionate veggie who shares our deep love and respect for all species, then all the better. But if we wish to follow this latter path, it may require relocation, a whole lotta online match-making, and perhaps even a hearty, helping hand from that little guy with the bow and arrows.

The science is in — pesticide residues are on our food, even after washing. Which foods and how much? Our iPhone app puts these answers at your fingertips. Download it for free»
Earlier this week the European Food Safety Association issued a report concluding that neonicotinoids ("neonics") pose an unacceptably high risk to bees, and that the industry-sponsored science upon which regulatory agencies' claims of safety have relied are fatally flawed.
...which is exactly what we've been saying since 2010, when we publicized the "leaked memo" showing that EPA has allowed clothianidin (a neonicotinoid) to remain on the market despite the absence of any solid science demonstrating the chemical's safety for bees. Last spring, PAN conducted our own evaluation of the state of the science on pesticides and bees and reached many of the same conclusions outlined in EFSA's comprehensive review of the science (see their full report). The science is not the surprise here.
President Obama faces a profound decision as he considers who will step into Lisa Jackson's shoes. Over the past decade, EPA has become a lightening rod for the heated partisan debate about the size and role of government. The agency has also come to serve as a rhetorical punching bag for those determined to pit environmental protection against economic growth.
The next EPA leader's stance on these big picture issues will inform decisions with very "small picture" impacts, decisions that will directly affect the health and well being of families across the country. From tackling pesticides in our air, water and food to what we do about energy and climate change challenges, this choice will matter. Hugely.
"We're facing the extinction of a species." That's what one Midwest-based large-scale commercial beekeeper told me last week at the annual gathering of the American Honey Producers Association (AHPA). And he meant it.
Bee losses have been dramatic, especially in recent years. And beekeepers are feeling the sting. According to many who manage hives, commercial beekeeping won't pencil out in the future unless things change, and soon.
Twitter-land was abuzz last week with news that a formerly ardent critic of genetic engineering (GE) has recanted his position. Mark Lynas gave a long mea culpa speech at the Oxford Farming Conference, in which he apologized to the world for tearing up GE crops back in the day, and for what he described as his "anti-science environmentalism."
Unfortunately, Lynas then went on to ignore the weight of scientific evidence (more on that below). He claimed that GE crop production is good for biodiversity and necessary to feed the world, that organic farming is bad, and that "there is no reason at all why avoiding chemicals should be better for the environment." He then quickly slammed the door shut on public debate, pronouncing "discussion over." Many of us in the global scientific community were left shaking our heads, bemused if disappointed in Lynas' anti-science rhetorical flourishes.
When the strawberry fumigant methyl iodide was taken off the U.S. market last March, pesticidemaker Arysta continued to promote the use of the cancer-causing chemical in other countries.
In coordination with partners around the world, PAN is now working hard to ensure methyl iodide is also removed from the global market. Last month, PAN International sent a letter to EPA calling on the agency to restrict the export of methyl iodide to other countries.

Mentor Design-for-Test and Verigy - Zero Overhead Diagnosis - Enabling fastest yield ramp for 65nm and beyond
On-demand Web Seminar
Hear from Ajay Koche, Ph.D., Verigy, Semiconductor Test Solutions, on how state-of-the-art ATE can deliver cost efficient data collection in volume manufacturing today when taking full advantage of a true test processor per pin architecture.
Duration: 52:32
Hear from Ajay Koche, Ph.D., Verigy, Semiconductor Test Solutions, on how state-of-the-art ATE can deliver cost efficient data collection in volume manufacturing today when taking full advantage of a true test processor per pin architecture. Dr Koche presents how efficient data collection of relevant failure information for high-volume diagnosis also supports the need for lowering cost of test.
The presentation also shows how such an ATE architecture can eventually deliver "zero overhead" data collection for taking full advantage of parallel multi-site testing. Integration with semiconductor manufacturing environments is shown using practical examples and results.

Tribe plans Fall City longhouse
October 2, 2008 · Updated 4:01 PM
The Snoqualmie Tribe's vision for Fall City Park includes an authentic Native American longhouse.
Tribal administrator Matt Mattson said Monday, June 4, that the Tribe remains committed to ownership of the Fall City park, arena and playfields, once a village site for the Snoqualmies. Part of that commitment would be the construction of a Native American cedar longhouse on the site, if land use rules permit it.
"The Tribe wants to do it traditionally," Mattson said. Snoqualmie Tribe's "canoe family," a group of about 20 tribal members who build traditional canoes, are becoming versed in the methods and hand tools - "not power tools," Mattson said - of the trade.
"That's something that tribal members are reconnecting to," he said. "The next step is learning longhouse construction."

Home >Report: 21st Century Transportation
Greasing the Wheels
In the wake of the Minnesota I-35 bridge collapse there was enormous public outcry and recognition of the need to repair our crumbling infrastructure. Americans expected public officials to respond to the tragedy with a large scale effort to address the nearly 73,000 structurally deficient bridges in this country. The findings in this report suggest that did not happen.
As Congress prepares a new multi-year, multibillion dollar transportation bill, we explored the intersection of money and politics and recent transportation funding decisions.
We analyzed two data sets and new information that shine light on the influence of campaign giving on transportation funding decisions at the state and federal level. First the report examines, on a state-by-state basis, how much money was contributed to both federal and state campaigns by highway interests, defined as those from the development, automobile, transportation, and construction sectors. Then, the report looks at the number and dollar amounts of transportation earmarks from the 2008 federal transportation appropriations bill that were funded in each state to highlight the priorities of members of Congress.
Key findings:
• In 2008 there were 704 earmarked "member projects," in the 50 states and the District of Columbia, totaling more than a half a billion dollars in federal aid highway projects on the annual transportation appropriations bill.
• Members of Congress earmarked funds in the 2008 appropriations bill for just 74 bridge repair projects. Only slightly more than 10 percent of the highway funds allocated for "member projects" in that year's appropriations bill went to bridge repair or restoration.1
• At the same time, in 2008, highway interests gave over 133 million dollars to candidates for both federal and state office.
The findings suggest that elected officials often overlook preventative maintenance projects, especially when new capacity projects are encouraged by campaign contributions.
We recommend reform of current campaign finance policy in order to ensure that the public interest is protected and that transportation decisions are made based on the needs of the public rather than the priorities of big-dollar donors.
• Congress should move to a voluntary system of publicly financing our elections that is focused on incentivizing small dollar donors and would raise the voices of individuals, keep elections competitive, and reduce the special access and influence of large corporate donors.
• Congress should spend taxpayers' money more wisely by focusing transportation dollars on solving our nation's biggest problems. Federal transportation money should be spent only on projects that produce real results over the long haul - for example, by reducing our dependence on oil, curbing global warming pollution, alleviating congestion, improving safety, and supporting healthy, sustainable communities.
1 Excluding emergency relief funding that was appropriated for the 1-35W bridge after the collapse.

The best and most loved game of chess I have ever played is Battle Chess. All of the pieces were characters, and when they moved, or took another piece, they had their own animations.
I played this version of chess as a kid and still remember it fondly to this day, because of the characters. I even tried to get a simulator version running on my PC a while back, but had no luck.
When a knight checked a king he'd do a mark of zorro and apparently fail to harm the king, who began to jeer the knight – Then the king's robes fell of and he covered himself and ran off the board in humiliation. The bishops had a secret blade hidden in the base of their staffs, and I think the big troll-castles would usually eat the kicking, screaming queens.

I've seen articles in Wired and on CNN and on blogs, etc., all stating how terrible Google Glass is. Oh no! Geeky white dudes are wearing Google Glass! This will never work!

Gigabyte offers driver update to allow charge of iPad while in use
Many iPad users have probably realized that when they connect their iPad to the USB port for charging and leave the iPad off things work fine. However, when the iPad is charging and the user tries to use the iPad power demand can be too high for some machines.
If you own a Gigabyte mainboard, the company has announced a new driver update for the device that will allow users to charge the iPad and use it at the same time. The update is called the On/Off charge update.
It can be downloaded on the Gigabyte site now and works with Intel X58, P55, H55, and H57 mainboards. AMD 800 chipset boards are also supported by the update.

<exchanging gazes> 6: Reflections. From Van Eyck to Magritte
New Display of the Collections
From 10 June to 15 September 2013
Treck was a Dutch still-life painter and brother-in-law of the still-life painter Jan Jansz. den Uyl, with whom he began his training. First documented as an independent painter in 1623, Treck lived and worked throughout his life in his native city. On the death of Den Uyl around 1639 he inherited his possessions and cared for his widow and sons, who became his pupils. Only a small part of Treck's oeuvre has survived and only four dated works are known, from 1641, 1647, 1649 and 1650, making his chronology difficult to establish. Treck died in Amsterdam in 1652
Treck's. work is so stylistically reliant on that of Den Uyl that it is difficult to distinguish the two hands. His earliest compositions of around 1641 are characterised by an emphasis on vertical lines, emphasised by his preference for vertical formats. He used large, empty backgrounds in pale tones with the motifs painted in large scale. From the outset his still lifes included glasses, glass vessels, porcelain and metallic objects and he used the reflections on the surface to add expressivity to these compositions. Another preferred motif was a white napkin or folded tablecloth that falls over the edge of the table. Treck's later works reveal a greater stylistic independence although Den Uyl's influence is still to be detected. Dating from 1647 during his last phase is a small Still Life (Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam) that manifests affinities with the work of Jan Jansz. van de Velde, while in general his work suggests a knowledge of the art of leading painters such as Pieter Claesz. and Willem Heda

Pronger still hopes to return
Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren strongly refuted a Facebook rumor that defenseman Chris Pronger was retiring and moving to St. Louis with his family.
Pronger still hopes to return
Sam Carchidi, Inquirer Staff Writer
Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren strongly refuted a Facebook rumor that defenseman Chris Pronger was retiring and moving to St. Louis with his family.
Holmgren said on Thursday night that Pronger, who missed most of the season with post-concussion syndrome, is hoping to get better and return to action next season. He is still experiencing headaches, the GM said.
"There's no truth to him retiring," Holmgren said.
Because of an illness in his wife's family, the Prongers are apparently going to spend some time in St. Louis, Holmgren said.
Fans on Twitter and Facebook reported seeing a huge moving van in front of Pronger's Haddonfield house on Wednesday.
If Pronger retired, the Flyers would not get any relief from his $4.9 million cap hit.

Send this story Print this story Adjust text size 400 attend Memorial Day ceremonies Patriotic music, speeches pay tribute to veterans throughout region
by Jeb Bing
The Pleasanton Community Concert band under the direction of Bob Williams played patriotic music starting at 10:30 a.m. with Richard Ghera, adjutant of the Pleasanton American Legion Post 237, opening the two-hour service at 11 a.m.
Guest speakers included David Ham, commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 6298 in Pleasanton, Mayor Jennifer Hosterman, Joe Sweeney, civilian aid to the Secretary of the Army, Northern California, and Army Command Sgt. Maj. Patrick McKie from Camp Parks.
Members of both the VFW and American Legion formed the color guard under the direction of John Delashaw that marched from the Senior Center to the lectern at the front of the large crowd. With everyone standing, the Pledge of Allegiance was recited, led by Carl Corbett, an Eagle Scout with Venture Crew 937, and followed by the singing of the national anthem by Georganne Seavey.
Later in the program, Seavey also sang "America the Beautiful," followed by the reading of the "Gettysburg Address" by Sam Peters of Pleasanton Boy Scout Troop 998.
A 21-gun salute, followed by the playing of taps, concluded the program.
Last Saturday as the three-day Memorial Day weekend started, Pleasanton Scouts, under the direction of American Legion's Pleasanton Post 237, placed special bronze grave markers with flags on the 535 graves of veterans who are buried in the city's Pioneer Cemetery and at the adjacent St. Augustine Catholic Cemetery. They were joined by Maj. Kimberly Tauch and members of the 368th military intelligence battalion from Camp Parks.

Thank you for visiting Raven Industries' Aerostar Division website. I am Lon Stroschein, Vice President and Division General Manager. Raven Aerostar is a company that drives technological innovation in aerospace and the diverse sensor markets we serve.
Our market vision is to be the premier manufacturer of specialty-sewn and sealed products and the industry leader for communications and surveillance technology for enhanced situational awareness. With a focus on the end user, typically the war fighter, we strive to design, build and deliver solutions that save lives.
We are focused in two areas: 1) lighter-than-air solutions, which include aerostats, airships and high altitude research balloons and their sensor payloads, and 2) parachutes and protective wear.
The use of aerostats by the US military for persistent surveillance of war zones is gaining real traction as a cost-effective alternative to unmanned vehicles that require a significant investment. It is saving the lives of the war fighter by providing persistent and reliable situational awareness.
Our recent success in parachutes, aerostats and high-altitude airships has caused us to be more aggressive than ever in developing new business opportunities around the globe that take advantage of our core strengths.
Raven Aerostar is a growth minded business. Our investments in people, products and capitol will always be aligned with our long-term strategy for growth. We are a business that will not be satisfied with product lines that do not have opportunity for top line or bottom line growth. We are a business who will compete on – and invest in – the service, innovation, quality and peak performance of our employees. This is not something we say, this is a culture we live.
Lastly, we are a company who treats suppliers and customers alike as members of our team. And the goal of every day is to make progress wherever we are able, to compromise wherever we must and to always maintain a fun, challenging and rewarding working environment.
Again, thank you for visiting.

I am working on starting up a new company for providing software development services for iPhone and Android apps. My goal is to get at least 10 projects in a month to reach break even in 3/4 months. Each project will typically have a price of $3K. The problem is that I have a very limited marketing budget and (as per my research) keywords relevant to this business have very high CPC and competition. For example: create iphone app, iphone app development, create android app, hire iphone app developer, hire ipad app developer etc.
My marketing budget is maximum $800 per month (total $2400 to be spent in 3 months). I am looking for an expert advice on should I go for PPC (will I get 10 projects a month? - or assuming pessimistic 5% conversion rate, 200 leads in month?) OR I should go slow and steady by opting for SEO (which will definitely cost less but will take longer time).
Your advice is highly appreciated.

Tags: Jennifer Lopez, Letterman, marc anthony, Q'Viva
Here at The Dishmaster, I watch a lot of interviews. And there's no one better to interview than Jennifer Lopez. First, she's insanely beautiful with a great sense of fashion. And second, you can't trip her up. She stays honest, while still managing to keep her privacy intact. It's a delicate dance, and she's mastered it. Watch her discuss her relationship with Marc Anthony while promoting Q'Viva.

Maurice Parks, a New York City subway conductor who fatally stabbed a bystander to death last year, thinking that the man was one of four who had just attacked him, was sentenced on Tuesday to 15 years to life in prison for second-degree murder.
The sentence, handed down by Justice Carol Berkman in State Supreme Court in Manhattan, was in line with the district attorney's recommendation and was the most lenient Mr. Parks could have received for the crime, which took place on Jan. 10, 2008. Mr. Parks, 41, is expected to be eligible for parole after about 12 years.
A conductor on the Nos. 1, 9 and 5 subway trains, Mr. Parks was walking home in Harlem when four men attacked him, according to court records. Wounded, Mr. Parks went in search of the men, prosecutors said, but instead came across Flonarza M. Byas, 28.
It later emerged that Mr. Parks had shot an assailant in self-defense in 1994, and had been rejected three times in the 1990s for a job on the police force.
Mr. Parks was indicted on murder charges last August. He was convicted of second-degree murder on May 27 after a short trial.
Criticizing Mr. Parks for not being repentant enough about the killing — which involved 15 stab wounds to Mr. Byas, with seven of those in his back — Justice Berkman suggested that only prison could curb his violent streak.
"I don't want to understand it," she said. "I want it to stop."
Mr. Parks, who wore a charcoal suit and white shirt, with his dreadlocks pulled back, showed no emotion and did not speak during the proceeding, which lasted 45 minutes. But the victim's fiancée, Stephanie Diaz, 23, urged the justice to punish Mr. Parks "severely" because he is a "ticking time bomb."
"Maurice Parks took away part of my life when he murdered Flonarza Byas," Ms. Diaz said in a 15-minute statement that was often interrupted by sobs. "I was forced to plan a funeral instead of a wedding."
The victim's mother, Dyanne Byas, who also spoke in court, said another victim was Harlem's black community, which continues to lose residents to murder and prison. In a booming voice, Ms. Byas, who was pushed to the front of the court in a wheelchair, forgave her son's killer and asked for forgiveness for her own feelings of hatred.
"Let's start the healing process by relinquishing the bitterness and anger that was brought forth with the death of my child," she said. "No one won in the courtroom today."

Taking Care In Tuscaloosa, Ala.
By Linton Weeks
One of the first activities of the new school year at the University of Alabama is Hands On Tuscaloosa, a morning of community service. On Sat., Aug. 25, students can choose to refurbish a neighborhood baseball diamond, clean-up a local high school, create a carnival or do something else worthwhile.
"We think it is important for students to get engaged as soon as they arrive on campus — both with each other and also with the Tuscaloosa community," says Wahnee Sherman, Director of the University's Community Service Center. Some 125 students are expected to participate.

Drew Barrymore Makeup: Coming Soon to a Wal-Mart Near You?
She's been a face of Cover Girl since 2007—but with her contract reportedly ending this coming January, Drew Barrymore is looking to gain an even stronger foothold in the beauty market. According to WWD, the actress has whipped up a makeup line to be sold exclusively at Wal-Mart. (It would be the superstore's first built-from-scratch beauty brand.)
Before her Cover Girl days, Drew also appeared in ads for Lancôme, but this Wal-Mart project would mark her first independent beauty-related business venture. There's no question the star looks great in colorful cosmetics, and we can't wait to see what sort of products she's created for the affordable retailer. We're hoping for some really out-of-this-world nail art kits.

Susceptibility of Motor-Evoked Potentials to Varying Targeted Blood Levels of Dexmedetomidine
Recruitment status was Recruiting

- How to Read a Study Record
Reduction of the spinal cord injuries during scoliosis surgery is a major goal of the anesthesia and surgical team. Despite improvement in scoliosis surgery over the years, the development of neurological deficits remains the most feared complication of spine surgery. During scoliosis surgery it is very important to monitor the spinal cord to detect spinal cord injury with surgical manipulation. Continuous or intermittent intraoperative electrophysiological monitoring (neuron-monitoring) is used routinely during these procedures to provide the surgeon with information concerning the integrity of neurological structures at risk. All neuron-monitoring modalities are affected by the anesthetic regimen used. Of the various intravenous anesthetic drugs, the combination of propofol, remifentanil and dexmedetomidine appear to impact neuron-monitoring the least. The current anesthetic practice is to use the three drugs in combination at doses that do not depress the signals but there is no data relating targeted dexmedetomidine and propofol blood levels to neuron-monitoring signals. The lack of data results in wide variability in dosing with consequent variability in patient response.
Hypothesis: Clinically relevant blood levels of dexmedetomidine will affect the amplitude of transcranial motor-evoked potentials (TcMEP) either independently or by interaction with propofol in a dose dependent manner.

Bill Clinton Stars at Mario Batali Awards Dinner
Ken Goodman
It's not every day that Mario Batali hands out a Golden Pie Service Award. In fact, he'd never given one out before last Sunday night, when he handed one to President Bill Clinton.
Clinton was the star of an astonishing crowd that came to Del Posto to support the Mario Batali Foundation, which works to keep kids well fed, well read and well cared for. The Edge signed a red KitchenAid mixer for the silent auction (it sat next to one embossed with the presidential seal and signed by Clinton; it was out of my price range before bidding started). Rachael Ray posed for pictures with people who said they were her biggest fans, then went to sit with Francis Ford Coppola. The author Richard Ford gave a remarkable speech after the first course green salad with black truffle dressing ("It's exploding with truffle flavor" was how REM's Mike Mills accurately described it).
Jimmy Fallon rewrote the lyrics to "Fire & Rain," which included the refrain "I've seen Clint Eastwood talk to an invisible man." Fallon performed after guests had finished their Emperors pasta, a dish Del Posto's chef Mark Ladner named for Clinton. To make it vegan for the president's diet, Ladner topped penne with very, very slow-cooked vegetables and whipped soy protein (it's like mascarpone, Ladner said).
There was a vegan option to the main course New York strip steak, too: An awesome cauliflower steak drizzled with salsa verde. Then Clinton spoke. He thanked Batali for his outstanding work, particularly on the issue of children's hunger. It was possibly the first time in the history of charity dinners that everyone wished a speech had gone on longer. Even more good news: The dinner was part of two-day event that raised over half a million dollars for the MBF. It's never too late to donate: Check out the mariobatalifoundation.org.

I know that this paragraph will not do justice to my experience during ASB: Arts & Activism. I had the opportunity to be a site leader. The process of planning the logistics and directing the activities during the week challenged me as a leader and as a Duke student. I had the privilege to visit the beautiful city of Chicago and see priceless pieces of art and performances. The most memorable time was working with the high school students. Every ASB has a service component, and in this trip Duke students taught high school students about their identity, various social issues, and the meaning of arts and activism. Throughout the week I built a relationship with the students and they defied my expectations. They were very smart, quick, and passionate. Each high school student had a story to tell and was invested in a social issue. These students have the power to change the world, and I hope they do!

Did you know your PC is really a like an accounting office with file cabinets, staff, and an accountant.
You all have heard of the HARD DRIVE, RAM or MEMORY, and PROCESSOR or CPU. Inside your computer are all of these high tech "things". There are other items like DVD drives, Video Adapter, Network Adapter, Mother Board and more. I am going to explain what the big three all relate to. HARD DRIVE is just a file cabinet. An electric file cabinet used for storing all your data. RAM is MEMORY and that is the staff in the accounting office that does the work like preparing, filing, and sorting. PROCESSOR is the accountant who does all the calculating and directing the office. You may have heard about a dual or quad core PROCESSOR. Well that means you have one processor but it acts like two-dual or four-quad accountants. HARD DRIVE – the bigger it is the more data you can store. MEMORY – the more you have the more staff you have running around doing the filing and sorting at the same time. Too little MEMORY and you will be waiting around for a while for things to get done. PROCESSOR – is how fast the calculations can be done.
The moral of this is that more is more. When you are looking to buy a new computer these items are the big three. More means just that – more speed, more space, more money.
Happy Computing and Happy Valentine's Day.

The state of Washington allows the court to vacate certain nonviolent convictions. Once vacated (expunged), the case is no longer deemed a conviction. State law gives you the right to state to anyone, including prospective employers, that you were NOT convicted of that offense, after a vacate motion has been granted.
With more than 80 percent of employers conducting background checks, having your record vacated is a great investment.
Once a conviction is vacated (expunged), the fact that you have been convicted of the offense will not be included in your criminal history for purposes of determining a sentence in any subsequent conviction. For all purposes, including responding to questions on employment or housing applications, a person whose conviction has been vacated may state that he or she has never been convicted of that crime.
Not all offenses are eligible and you must meet a waiting period that starts from the time you complete your probation and pay all fines and restitution. Take the free online eligibility test to see if you are eligible. The waiting periods are:
Felonies prior to 1984 did not have an expungement statute. Therefore, we can petition the judge and ask for the current expungement law to be applied.
The typical case in Washington takes about 3 to 4 months. The courts operate on a first-come, first-served basis, so the sooner you start, the sooner your record is cleared.
Our flat-fee includes all costs. We will conduct the research, file the necessary motions, respond to written or oral opposition from the District attorney, and send one of our attorneys to court to argue the case in front of the judge.
In most cases, you will not have to physically appear in court. You can let us handle all the work, while you track the progress of your case online.
We have handled hundreds of cases in Washington. Our low-price and money back guarantee are unbeatable. Trust us to make sure you get a great deal and the maximum amount of relief.
Our exclusive Expedited Criminal Database Update service allows us to have the leading background check companies reflect changes to your criminal record in less than 14 days, instead of months and even years like our competitors.

1. | Deep Purple | ||
A great british 70's rock band! Its guitarist Ritchie Blackmore, Keyboardist Jon Lord, and drummer Ian Paice are all excellent musicians.
This band was known to have witnesses a lot of changes in its line-up. Who's your favorite Deep Purple vocalist?
Ian Gillan, or David Coverdale? |
2. | Deep Purple | ||
One of the greatest bands of all time, who were at their peak in the 1960's to the early 1970's. They were characterized by their heavy; riff-based music style. Their biggest hit was Smoke on the Water, but they also had hits with other songs, such as Black Night, Burn, Knocking at Your Backdoor, and Space Truckin'. Had great musicians, like Richie Blackmore, John Lord, and Roger Glover. Deep Purple is one of the heaviest classic rock bands.

A great british classic rock band from the 1970's. Their music consists of heavier, more raw songs that are the basis of heavy metal, together with intricate, longer and more progressive songs. For example: The song April, about nine minutes of it is a Baroque melody played on keyboard and guitar.
Greatest songs: April, Child in Time, Black Night, Smoke on the Water, Lazy. Deep Purple is a great band.

A band formed in the Late 60s-early 70s that is one of the greatest rock bands of all time. They have one of the greatest guitarists of all time, Ritchie Blackmore, who falls second on my list behind Jimmy Page. Deep Purple's greatest songs(in my opinion) are Burn, Space Truckin', Black Knight, Demon's Eye, Child In Time, and Stormbringer. Everyone should check this band out. Deep Purple is one of the greatest bands of all time.

1. A legendary rock group. By rock, i mean heavy 70s/80s stuff. Check out Smoke On The Water or Black Night for example
2. Indigo. AKA opium. Which i haven't had the chance to try yet. Maybe someday... drugs are bad, mmmkay? but if you must try any, research them beforhand, mmmkay? NEVER take something if you have no idea of what effect it'll have

Deep Purple is a British rock group. They were one of the first and most famous hard rock bands, and are considered pioneers of heavy metal.
Despite their association with the sub-genre, Deep Purple has never been purely a heavy metal band, though many later heavy metal bands cite their influence. The group has frequently changed styles and lineups over the years, but has always included virtuoso players in its ranks and placed a high priority on musicianship. Some incarnations of Deep Purple have brought aspects of jazz to a rock context due to their frequent use of their songs as vehicles for extended and sophisticated solos. Highway Star, Lazy, Space Truckin', Sotrmbringer, Flight of the Rat, Child in Time, Hard Lovin' Man
