text: An increasing number of research is revealing that the key to lifelong superior health is exactly what experts call "life style medicine" -- making simple adjustments in exercise, diet, and stress management. To help you switch this knowledge to results, we've put together this manageable collection of health insurance and health suggestions. We requested three professionals -- a naturopathic physician, a dietitian, and also a coach -- to inform the very most effective five simple-but-significant lifestyle-medicine alterations that they urge. Besides giving you three distinct takes on the best way best to decide on your quality of life conflicts, this list offers you options you are able to possibly make with no whisked off into a reality show fat plantation -- or purchasing a second freezer for all those calorie-controlled, pre-portioned frozen foods. More info - http://raceiq.us/index.php?option=co...ser&id=1487564 Think confident and focus on gratitude Research indicates a healthier positive attitude may help build a healthier immune system and boosts entire health. Your body believes everything you think, thus focus on the constructive. Eat your vegetables Shoot for five portions of vegetables a day -- steamed, raw, or stir fried. A diet high in veggies is related to a reduced probability of developing cancers of the colon, lung, breast, cervix, esophagus, gut, kidney, pancreas, and ovaries. And many of one of the strongest phytonutrients will be the people with all the boldest shades -- including as broccoli, cabbage, carrots, tomatoes, grapes, and leafy greens. Set a "5-meal perfect" What, when, and also how much you eat can keep your metabolism and your own energy steadily improved, and that means you will have more electricity. A "5 meals great" may help you manage your weight, maintain your cool, keep your focus, also prevent cravings. Exercise everyday Were you aware daily exercise may lower each one of the biomarkers of aging? This consists of improving eyesight, normalizing blood pressure, enhancing lean muscle mass, reducing cholesterol, and increasing bone density. In the event you wish to survive very well and survive longer, you definitely have to exercise! Studies demonstrate that even 10 minutes of exercise makes a difference so do something! Crank the stereo and dance on your livingroom. Sign up for swing dance or ballroom dancing lessons. Walk to the playground with your children or some neighbor you'd like to catch up with. Jump rope or play hopscotch. Twist a hula-hoop. Play water volleyball. Bike to work. Hop onto the trampoline. Proceed for a hike. Get a Fantastic night's sleep For those who have issues sleeping, then try relaxation techniques such as yoga and meditation. Or take in only a small bedtime snack of food items proven to greatly help alter your own body and brain into sleep style: wholemeal cereal with milk, oatmeal, cherries, or chamomile tea. Darken the room much more and turn away your clock from you personally. Take note of stressful or anxieties notions to receive them from your own face and on the web page. This can allow you to set them into perspective and that means you can quit worrying about them. Christina Reiter, '' M.S., R.D. Resident consulting dietitian at the University of Colorado--Boulder Wardenburg Health Center for Diet Education and Learning and also Therapies and former director of the nutrition plan in Metropolitan State College of Denver. Inch. Assess your food 'tude That which we eat and how we believe are joined in very complex manners. A healthy approach to eating relies on savoring taste, eating to gratification, and rising energy, instead of emphasizing fat loss. Check the equilibrium of low-carb meals, nutrient-dense meals (providing many nutrients per calorie) foods which are calorie packed but nutrient-poor. Many Americans need to consume more fresh whole-foods (in contrast to processed, highly processed food items). Try to include a lot more whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables, and beans into your diet. Publish these carbohydrate-rich foods with a nutritious excess fat or lean protein to extend satisfaction. 2. Eat like a kid If adding veggies and fruits sounds menacing, look into "finger-food" versions that preschool kids love -- lettuce and celery sticks, cherry tomatoes, broccoli florets, grapes, berries, and dried fruits. All are nutrient power houses packaged with anti oxidants. 3. Be a picky eater Limit fats and polyunsaturated fats, and aim to eat more foods rich in anti-inflammatory omega-3 efas to decrease your risk of cardiovascular illness and probably even strengthen miserable moods. The same of just 1 gram of EPA/DHA (eicosapentaenoic acid/docosahexaenoic acid) each day is suggested. Eating coldwater oily fish (wild salmon, herring, sardines, trout) two to 3 times each week can give both the EPA and DHA. Adding up into a couple tbsp of ground flax seed along with eating beef, milk, and milk from naturally-occurring creatures will supply you with a wholesome dose of omega 3s. 4. Use foods above Nutritional Supplements Supplements aren't a substitute for a superb nutritional supplement. In spite of the fact that many health experts advise having a multi vitamin and vitamin supplement that gives 100 to 200 percent of one's recommended daily value, each and every supplement should really be carefully evaluated for purity and safety. Particular supplements are connected with toxicity, and responses with prescription drugs, rivalry together with different nutrients, and even greater risk of diseases such as cancer, diabetes, heart problems, and diabetes.

Let me start by saying that this Peugeot 205 jump is huge. It's like, a car jumping over a car. It's massive. But the best part is why the driver wanted to do the jump in the first place.
Basically, everyone was saying his stripped-out econobox was indestructible, so he decided to give it a shot.
The say it's unbreakable. But we're going to try.
Dammit, that's just beautiful. Words to live by for any hoon.
Oh, and this dude is part of the same mad Dutchies who gave the world rolling Volkswagens, tractor-axle Opels, and racing bathtubs.
Many thanks to the excellent Sweet Jump Bro Facebook page. Follow it, you sonsabitches.

Lots of us have already seen a video clip (see link below) of this accident online. I understand some of this footage is to appear on a tabloid TV program tonight. I saw the video online last night for the first time myself, really glad you're still with us Dimitri. Earlier this year I had heard a rumor about the accident and asked Dimitri about what happened. What follows are interview comments from Dimitri that I received some months back about this accident. I decided to shelve them pending the day when and if the video came out.
Earlier this year (2008) Dimitri Maramenides was kiteboarding for a photo shoot. He was riding an Eclipse 10 m Thruster in gusty 18 to 35 mph winds. After the shoot had been completed he improvised some moves. One including jumping over a house out in the water. He had to clear the support A-frames of the house extending about 30 ft. off the water. So, his jumps were up to around 40 ft. high and about 120 ft. downwind. He completed six jumps. Then he attached a back-mounted "point of view" video camera provided by kiteflix.com. The camera, mounting arm and recording housing added a payload of about 20 pounds. He jumped two more times successfully but the substantial extra weight was throwing off his timing in the jumps. On the last attempted jump, things went very wrong.
The house
He was charging the house building up speed and line tension to boost big to clear the house. Suddenly he felt the wind start to drop into a lull. He was too close to the house and going too fast to abort his jump. He knew he had to launch the jump or slam into the side of it but he also realized he wouldn't have enough power to clear the house. He boosted and started to hit a timber support above the roof , he positioned his board in front of him to take the impact and put his arms in front of his face. The board broke in two upon striking one of the diagonal timber supports with a tremendous bang! He rotated slamming in back first into the flat roof with the camera housing taking the next impact helping to protect his back.
He was then pulled across the roof by the kite and fell ten feet slamming into a wooden dock encompassing the house hitting his head on a wood hand rail. He couldn't feel anything at this point and just thought about his kids. His kite was streaming off downwind and about to drag him into the water. Everyone yelled to grab him in the background. They thought he was dead. His kite control bar was miraculously knocked activating his quick release depowering the kite. Otherwise he might have readily drowned if pulled into the water by the kite in his incapacitated state. He knew one of his ribs was broken and his ass was killing him. The impact bashed the crap out of him, literally. The guys wanted to have him airlifted out by helicopter but Dimitri wanted to fly out for his home in OBX that night and overruled the motion. He needed to see his kids at home the next day without fail, it was as simple as that. He managed to get up and go into the water to clean up. They got him into the boat for a feverish 20 minute ride to shore. He was shivering uncontrollably and likely in shock. On his return home his daughter asked him "why is your butt so big?" Wonder how he answered that?
He went to a doctor in OBX the next day who determined he fractured a rib and his pelvis. His butt was so big and swollen he couldn't put his pants on. Many months later his butt is still numb perhaps the outcome of bursitis caused by the severe impact.
The butt
Lessons learned in all of this?
Don't jump hard objects.
If this can happen to someone of Dimitri's exceptional skill level, it can happen to anyone. Lots of guys have been injured over the years by trying to clear boats, jetties, etc.. You never know when the wind will ease, gear break, you might screw up a jump or any of many other things might go wrong.
As an aside and largely unrelated to this accident, sometimes reports come in about guys jumping people. No one was being jumped this day. If you want to be charged with manslaughter someday and/or taken to the poor house for life in a lawsuit, go ahead and do it. Again, if Dimitri can screw up trying to clear an object (no one controls the wind), ANYONE can hit what they are trying to jump over.
Dimitri is an unusual guy, this is how he makes his living. Has done for over ten years. He will be the first to say don't do this sort of thing to others. The actions may not be the best choice all the time but he does push things. These collective acts, the successes, routine events and odd trips south are what have made him who he is. It has cost him broken bones at least five or six times over the years too. So, it isn't like he doesn't know the risks and hasn't already experienced the pain of unsuccessful attempts. Unlike the majority of pro riders, Dimitri has filled me in on details several times over many years on what went wrong to try to spare others the same bad experience. Thanks for that Dimitri but take it easier on yourself, ok? Also, any spectacular negative event can be used against the sport particularly if it gets out into the popular media as the video has. Access concerns exist in various parts of the world. It is good to consider what unexpected outcomes might bring against our freedom to ride.

The junior pre-med and psychology student joined 30 other students from North America and Rwanda to explore issues related to the 1994 Rwandan genocide. The first thing he noticed was all the progress that has already been made in recovery.
"The media paints Rwanda as being a place of devastation and warlords and all that, but what I saw were people who are incredibly strong and hard working," Motl said. "It was generally peaceful, and they had this great attitude and had made great progress toward peace and reconciliation."
"I really enjoy the idea of partnership and cultural exchange. That was the biggest thing about this program…"
The GYC program was designed to instill the spirit of global cooperation, and consisted of site visits, memorial visits and a volunteer project. Motl's group visited a refugee camp, several ministries and memorial sites marking the 1994 genocide of between 500,000 and 1 million ethnic Tutsi tribesmen and peace-advocating minority Hutus. The group also worked to promote education for Rwandan youth through theater and games.
"I really enjoy the idea of partnership and cultural exchange," Motl said. "That was the biggest thing about this program, and I am looking forward to developing these kinds of relationships with people wherever I am, teaching them something and learning a different way of doing what I am doing."
"On the site visits," he added, "we went to a refugee camp, to the Ministry of Justice and to the Ministry of Gender and Family Promotion. We were able to sit down and talk to them about some of the different issues and what those organizations are planning on for the future. The Rwandan youths were with us every step of the way. It was truly a partnership, and we learned about each other's perspectives."
The memorial site visits were particularly striking and emotionally exhausting, especially for the Rwandans in Motl's group, who recalled their own experiences or connections to the genocide.
"That made the memorial sites so much more personal, knowing that we were experiencing the sites with survivors," Motl said. "Sometimes, they would open up with their stories, and those were always really tough, but they were also incredibly strong. Just their strength and perseverance and how much they are striving for reconciliation and peace was inspiring."
Motl's group was also paired up with a non-governmental organization called the Health Development Initiative for a volunteer project. They helped the group write articles on sexual rights and sexuality for a website to be used as a resource for Rwandan youth to ask questions and find answers.
Since his return to ASU, Motl has delved deeply into his studies with a new focus on the future, which has been forever transformed by his trip to Rwanda.
"I hope to be living in a different country and having a partnership with its people," he said, "teaching them about health and human rights, and at the same time learning from them and learning about their culture."
While Motl is leaning toward becoming a general medical practitioner so he can treat a wide range of patients, he is also looking at pediatrics or obstetrics-gynecology after noticing on the Doctors Without Borders website that there is a great need for doctors in those areas. Whatever path he chooses, he plans to work alongside others and continue to expand his own horizons.

Golden summer beckons for FedererChris Wilkinson May 15, 2012
As the preparations for the French Open step up a notch, we are back on the traditional red clay in Rome this week.
Novak Djokovic may be the top seed and defending champion and Rafael Nadal the King of Clay, but Roger Federer is the man to beat after his win in Madrid last week.
There was so much controversy surrounding the blue clay in the Spanish capital, but Federer just seemed to glide across the court. That just shows his class - that he can adapt to any surface so easily. From the minute he stepped on court he looked comfortable. It is such a shame that the controversy surrounding the event took away from Federer's win.
Nadal has been outspoken in his criticism of the change and he was noticeably more cautious and clearly felt he was risking injury with every shot he made, and Djokovic is threatening to skip the event next year if changes are not made. And to be honest I can understand their frustration.
Personally I think the decision to change the surface so close to the French Open is ludicrous, but more critical is the decision to ignore the player's protests. If they were consulted about the changes then their concerns were clearly ignored.
The justification for the change in colour was to help spectators see the ball more easily, but even they seemed opposed to the change - they were booing tournament chief Ion Tiriac during the presentation ceremony on Sunday.
Federer's win sees him leapfrog Nadal to move back up to No. 2 in the world, and with Djokovic having so many points to defend, the world No. 1 spot is firmly back in his sights.
It could be a big summer for Federer. By the time he reaches his 31st birthday, he could have ended his wait for his 17th grand slam, broken Pete Sampras' record of at the top of the world rankings and could have finally got his hands on an elusive Olympic gold singles medal.
I do think at this stage in his career he will be thinking about his legacy. There aren't many more records he can break, but Sampras' is one that has narrowly eluded him for so long - he is just one week short of equalling the American's record of 286 weeks as world No. 1.
That said, I do think his top priority will be London 2012. He has never won a gold in the singles competition (he won doubles gold with Stanislas Wawrinka in 2008) and I'm sure he will have his eye on making his career Grand Slam a golden one.
And the fact that this summer's Olympic competition is at the All England Club, where as a six-time champion he has so many happy memories, would just make the win all the more special.
He may have one eye on the grass-court season, but Federer would be crazy to get too far ahead of himself - after all he has a strong chance of winning major No. 17 at the French Open. The last time Federer won the Madrid Open, he went on to win at Roland Garros and complete his career Grand Slam.
Events in Madrid last week make the Rome Masters even more critical for the top players. Djokovic and Nadal will be looking to get back to winning ways and it will be key for Andy Murray, who missed the Madrid Open with a back niggle.
We don't know how serious his injury was, but my feeling is that the uncertainty of the blue clay was probably playing on Murray's mind and so with his French Open preparations to consider he decided to pull out and concentrate on being fully fit for Rome.
I did think Milos Raonic would be one to keep an eye out for in Rome after his stunning run to the semi-finals in Barcelona, but he was beaten by Florian Mayer in the first round. The usual suspects will be challenging for the title - Nadal, Djokovic, Federer, and of course Juan Martin Del Potro is back in the top 10 after his win in Estoril a fortnight ago.
This year's French Open is set to be an intriguing one - Djokovic is going for the career grand slam Nadal a record seventh Roland Garros title; Federer could return to world No. 1 with victory in Paris, while Murray could be a challenger under the influence of Ivan Lendl.
This week in Rome will be a great gauge of what we can expect in Paris later this month.

Exclusive Daily Updates From The Road. Albuquerque, NM to Kingman, AZ: Beating the Heat in Holbrook and a Marvelous Museum of the Mother Road
After enduring the crowded streets of downtown Albuquerque, the open vistas of western New Mexico were a welcome change. Just after crossing the Arizona state line we were amazed to see a large gathering of the "Over the Hill Gang" on the overpass. Even when spectators are unable to join us on the Tour, its gratifying to know theyre with us in spirit (or at least in cyberspace if theyve been following our Web site updates).
At our gas stop in Holbrook we found an even better deal than the $40 chunks of Rt. 66 offered by Ted Hodge in Tulsa. Petrified wood in the Shamrock convenience store sells for only a few bucks, and the fist-sized prehistoric rocks were twice the size of Teds nuggets! But for some unexplained reason we didnt see any Tourers loading up with these precious collectibles. Maybe its because we had to beat a hasty retreat when the heat (the law-enforcement type) got too intense. Seems that the towns Department of Public Safety received phone complaints about a hoard of lawless hot rodders clogging the streets, with a potential riot in the worksobviously this vehicular flashpoint had to be doused as quickly as possible.
So, we dutifully motored back toward the freeway in an orderly formation (but not before pausing yet again for some more photos). The real reason Tourers didnt collect some bits of rock is probably because the souvenir of choice is a Long Haul stamp on the back of the registration pass worn around their necks. Its proof that youve not only retraced Rt. 66, but also done it with a convoy of other half-crazed, weary rodders running on too many motel continental breakfasts and ragged adrenaline. The Tour is a test of personal mettle and personalized metal, an uneasy alliance of man and machine facing the common foe of seemingly endless stretches of freeways.
At this point, the Power Tour was beginning to feel too long, too crowded, too hotand just too darn much fun. We can hardly wait to get to San Bernardino, both to finish off our 7th Tour, and to relish the finale. And well probably feel really sad about seeing the end as well.
Before that, however, Kingman proved to be a refreshing stop along the way, with the small-town hospitality and nostalgic flavor of the Mother Road we long to savor. We stopped briefly at the new Powerhouse Route 66 Museum, which had opened just in time for our arrival. If youre in the area, its well worth a visit. There are photos and depictions of the early days of this first cross-country highway that really capture the feel and history of the era. During the early stages, road signs were few and far between, so tour guide books of the day showed photos of houses and water towers to look out for, and even a ranchers gate that had to be opened and shut to proceed down the rutted and winding dirt trail. Especially moving are the photos of families stricken by the 10-year Dust Bowl drought as they struggled westward in search of relief. (These exhibits really put the comparatively minor hiccups and hassles of the Power Tour in perspective.)
Speaking of hiccups, we heard about one Power Tour participant who almost didnt make it, but thanks to some special treatment by Chrysler, he should be able to finish the final leg with us. Norm King was headed to Albuquerque in his PT Cruiser from San Antonio, but had to stop in El Paso when his A/C went south. Sorely disappointed at the thought of missing out on the Tour, he explained his plight to the local dealer, who politely explained he simply had no parts in stock to fix it right away. Norm then got on the phone to the Chrysler help line, and minutes later the service manager was scavenging components from the showroom cars A/C system. The dealer even took the Kings to the mall to watch a movie while repairs were being made. The couple managed to hook up with the Tour in Kingman for the run into San Bernardino. Talk about good servicethats how important the Power Tour is for some folks.
Online Editors Note: A special word of thanks is in order for this upload to Jeff Benson for logistical support with his Pro Barge III Chrysler New Yorker. Way to go Jeff! Next stop: San Bernardino's Big Finale.

Home > Patients & Visitors > Health Library > Low-Lying Placenta
During pregnancy, the placenta is normally attached to the upper wall of the uterus. A placenta that forms low in the uterus without overlapping the cervical opening is referred to as a low-lying placenta. It is not a high-risk condition. It often gets better on its own as the pregnancy progresses.
If you have a low-lying placenta early in pregnancy, there is a good chance that it will get better on its own. As the lower uterus enlarges, the placenta's relative position will shift away from the cervix.
But when the placenta does overlap the cervix, it is called placenta previa. Placenta previa can bleed heavily during labor. The good news is that about 90% of cases diagnosed before the 20th week no longer overlap the cervix by the end of the pregnancy.footnote 1

St. Louis Developer Asks for Tax Credit Extension
JEFFERSON CITY - St. Louis developer Paul McKee is asking Missouri lawmakers to extend the deadline on a tax credit program he hopes will redevelop St. Louis' north side.
McKee told a Missouri House committee Tuesday that lawsuits have delayed the drawdown of the $95 million program authorized by the Legislature in 2007. About $40 million has already been tapped by McKee from the program that expires in August.
The land assemblage tax credit is used to buy and maintain parcels of land in blighted parts of north St. Louis City.
The measure would extend the program for six more years and authorize another $95 million for the program.
McKee's request for a funding boost comes as lawmakers are trying to boost the state's coffers by scaling back existing tax credit programs.

October 30, 2013 · Lessig · Reblogged from
Many of us fighting for corruption reform (aka, "campaign finance reform," at least by the sort of people who call "alcoholism" a "liquid intake problem") believe this:
Only New Hampshire can save us.
Why New Hampshire?
First, New Hampshire holds the first free presidential primary (Iowa is too addicted to ag subsidies to be called "free"), and the N.H. primary can set the tone for the 2016 election.
Second, New Hampshire is filled with fiercely independent voters, who are among the most politically astute in the nation (see "First").
Third, New Hampshire is one of only states that has an express right of the people to revolution: Article 10 reads:
[Right of Revolution.] Government being instituted for the common benefit, protection, and security, of the whole community, and not for the private interest or emolument of any one man, family, or class of men; therefore, whenever the ends of government are perverted, and public liberty manifestly endangered, and all other means of redress are ineffectual, the people may, and of right ought to reform the old, or establish a new government. The doctrine of nonresistance against arbitrary power, and oppression, is absurd, slavish, and destructive of the good and happiness of mankind.
These three points together have led people in New Hampshire to launch the New Hampshire Rebellion (#NHR), which aims to recruit voters — Independents, Republicans, and Democrats — in New Hampshire to a single cause: To get every presidential candidate at every event in New Hampshire to answer one simple question: "How are you going to end the corruption in Washington."
There are many ideas for how the #NHR will push its agenda. You can follow the tumble for #NHR here.
That's the first bit of background. Here's the second:
A local hero in New Hampshire is Doris Haddock (aka Granny D). In 1998, at the age of 88 (till she was 90), Granny D walked across the country — literally, from coast to coast (or at least to DC) — wearing a sign: "campaign finance reform." Her incredible story is told in her book, Granny D: Walking Across America in My Ninetieth Year, and as everyone in the corruption cause across America recognizes, this made her our hero.
In 2004, she ran a small-dollar campaign for Senate against Judd. She didn't win — despite being a guest blogger on my blog! — but she continued her work for "campaign finance reform" until she died at the age of 100, a couple months after Citizens United was decided. At the celebration of her 100th birthday, on January 28, 2010, a week after Citizens United was decided, she delivered an incredible speech about that decision, and the future of reform.
None of us have Granny D's strength to walk across America. But some of us are now thinking about a smaller version of that march, aimed at recruiting people to the #NHR. Not across the US, but across NH; not west to east, but north to south; and not in the summer, but in the winter. In particular, this winter. Specifically, this January:
It is our aim to march from the northern tip of New Hampshire to Nashua, three times between now and the New Hampshire primary, recruiting voters in New Hampshire to the #NHR.
In the first year, though the details are still being worked out, we plan to begin on the day Aaron Swartz died — January 11 — and end in Nashua on the day Granny D delivered her Citizens United speech — January 28. When we begin, we will read a passage from Aaron's last speech. When we end we will read Granny D's last speech. And in between, we will speak in as many places as we can, recruiting as many citizens of New Hampshire to the #NHR.
This first year will a bit of a pilot. We don't expect many to join us — though we of course invite everyone to participate, especially presidential candidates, for at least part of the march. There's at least one person so far who has committed to make it from top to bottom. (Me). But our hope is that by the third year of this march, hundreds will be joining us to make this issue the first issue in the New Hampshire primary.
So here's where we need your help: This is a joint project with Rootstrikers and #NHR (Rootstrikers.org providing institutional support while we get this off the ground). But neither organization has the resources or infrastructure to do this alone. To make it feasible, we will need a ton of support between now and January 11 — both to organize the event, and support it if it happens.
So I have built this webform to help collect possible volunteer support. If you might be able to help, or want to be kept in the loop, click here.
And whether or not you can help, please share this post as broadly as you can.
Thanks in advance (of a very cold January). And thanks to everyone who has worked so hard to keep Granny D's memory alive. I'm really hopeful that at the very least, we're going to make that work a lot easier.

I didn't have much luck with the Cargo's smoky eye kit so when I saw this one from Pixi for just £21, I had to have it!
You get an eyeshadow – a quad almost because its got for dark tones in it, a double ended brush (shadow/liner) a gel liner and a mascara in a gift box.
The size of the products (mascara and gel liner) I think are full sized – I know that Pixi isn't cheap so its pretty good value:
But did it far well? See after the jump!They Say:
What it is:
All you need for the perfect smoky eye! Complete all-in-one kit for the ultimate smoky eye.
What it is formulated to do:
Now you have all you need in one handy kit. All products are waterproof to stay on without smudging or budging. The ultimate kit to create smoking hot, smoky eyes! Boost those lashes, define those eyes and smoke it up with sultry a trio of: mascara, gel liner and smoky shadow quad.
You can't tell from the photo there is much of a difference there in the colours. They all seem to have a blackened base (like the MAC style black mineralized shadows).
So I followed the guide that came with the kit. First I applied the Pixi Primer that I bought (they have a few kinds). Then I curled my lashes – did I tell you that the Heroine Make curler is excellent? Better than Shiseido or Shu.
So first you pick a random colour from the kit and apply all over the lid with the brush:
Ideally choose one of the coloured ones, not the darkest black as you will be using this to add definition:
Next use a gel liner across the lashes:
You can use the brush thats included:
Take the darker shade and apply it to your crease:
We then take a metallic lighter shade and place in in the centre of the lid. So it looks like this. We also take the darkest shade under the eye:
Blend (realistically with a clean blending brush) the edges. Add mascara:
Overall, I like this kit a lot, a whole lot more than the Cargo one. For one thing, its very good value for a fill sized mascara, gel liner, shadow and brush – the mascara was fine on me, the gel liner was ok too – not quite as creamy as my Bobbi Brown but if you are looking for your first gel liner you won't be disappointed.
The shadow itself doesn't look madly pigmented but as you can see from the photos it barely takes any time to build the colours up. I'd highly recommend a primer (the Pixi one is pretty good it didn't seem to wash my colours out at all).
You can buy it here for £21.

For this episode I have tried new ways of podcasting. I think it is a bit like running, you have to try new challenges to see where your limits are. Now I'm wondering if I'm not getting pretty close to the edge of what I can do. Or maybe (just like running) the more you train the better you become.
I have had a lot of fun producing this episode, and I even got my family involved. The fact is that all of my family is participating in one way or another.

My problem with it is that It cannot be cleaned; about 1/2" of the screen rests on stainless steel backing; little bits of dirt get under the screen (between the screen and the backing, and cannot be removed even in the dishwasher, with a brush or water pressure.

It covers most of my pots, is heavy enough to stay down and when I could not wash it the first day, did not rust!!! It is everything I want in a splatter screen! The cooking oil stays in the pan, not splattering to other heat plates or all over the stove and all over me. I highly recommend it!!!!Date published: 2016-03-20Rated 5 out of 5 by 2of2 from splatter screen saves the day After going through three or four cheap screens, these splatter screens are the very best I've ever used. They are easy to use easy to clean and easy to store. They are durable and well constructed. The wrap around guard keeps spatters where they belong not all over the cooktop.Date published: 2015-03-04Rated 4 out of 5 by CookingProfessor from One more thing to clean It's a good idea. And this spatter screen, being All Clad, is well made. But the idea is better than the execution. Of course the spatter screen itself gets really dirty. But the spatter screen is actually harder to clean than the stove top! Worse, if you actually need to flip the items you are frying, then the stove top gets spattered anyway. In brief, instead of just cleaning the stove top, tonight I need to clean the stove top AND the spatter screen. OK, the stove top is only a LITTLE dirty. And the spatter screen does fit on the top shelf of the dish washer. But, on balance, I'm not sure that this saved me much. And, as an All-Clad, it was really expensive. It's probably the best spatter screen there is. But I cannot really recommend it.Date published: 2014-06-28Rated 5 out of 5 by sundriya from useful item The splatter screen is useful when cooking bacon, or any food that may leave grease splatters on the stove top. The screen lets the steam escape. Also, easy to cleanDate published: 2013-07-24Rated 4 out of 5 by travelgal from Good Screen But Could Be Better I found the construction to be of high quality. The notched rim fit perfectly on my All-Clad pans. My complaint is the mesh. It does not contain all of the splatter. I still have a mess on my stove, just not as much. At the time I made this purchase All-Clad offered another splatter screen that I wanted but couldn't buy because it came with a set of pans I didn't need. It had a double mesh screen and the handle was on top. I'm disappointed I couldn't purchase that separately.Date published: 2013-03-31Rated 2 out of 5 by DanW from Disappointed For this price I expected a nice, heavy, quality piece of All-Clad. This thing is barely better than a $1.99 item, although I will admit it's much prettier. Seriously flimsy, the handle bends easily, the screen wobbles, and I predict the handle attachment will fail eventually due to the flexure. The weight of the handle to the body is such that it just barely balances on a frying pan and is easily knocked over. Really wish I'd seen it in person first, I relied on the All-Clad name and was let down. Really, would a nice heavy cast ring with a solid handle mount be too much to expect at this price pointDate published: 2012-01-08

As with any community or open source project, Uncyclopedia has an underclass of vandals, spammers, goblins, trolls, idiots, N00bs, blankers, sockpuppets, and apparently now also you. This article exists for the purpose of telling you that you've failed at what you were just doing. You should read and digest this to avoid getting banned from other sites that reject your kind. Think of this as friendly advice. Wrapped around a large metal baseball bat.
Who are these vandals?
Vandals are usually:
- Trying to gain attention
- Very easily entertained by basic actions, such as removing text, mashing the keyboard randomly or swearing
- Just plain stupid
They will blank pages, replace pages with useless information, nominate random people for Ban Patrol, and nominate articles that are not even the least bit funny for VFH. Let's get into a little more detail.
- Vandals: fail to grasp the concept of a wiki. They will remove information they consider offensive (or "wrong") (or remove information for the hell of it), insert slander and vanity, post shockpics/links and so forth. Think of them like those morons that ruin every clean wall in your town with their incomprehensible "tags", but lack the creativity and ability to create a genuinely impressive work of art such as Nigger Dogshit Sandwiches, or Midget cockpunching terrorists.
- Spammers: are either desperate, idiotic or automated bots. They tend to replace content with excessive external links to malware, porn sites (but never good porn sites) and advertising. Chances are if you're one of these, you're not even reading this, in which case now is as good a time as any to mention that you're adopted. If you're a bot, your code is deprecated, and your creator didn't love you enough to install the upgrade. Loser.
- Idiots: just have no idea what they're doing. In real life it's easy to spot them, as they're usually dripping ketchup on their shirt whilst attempting to eat two burgers at once, or trying to cross a busy road without looking. On Uncyclopedia; well, they're pretty easy to spot here, too. They'll be the people replacing articles with the factual Wikipedia ones, nominating grossly substandard material for featuring, and all the while ignoring the entreaties of several users and at least three admins on their talk page. Not to be confused with:
- N00bs: We were all one of these once, so try and be understanding. Many noobs just have no idea how to do many things on Uncyclopedia, but they can be taught through the Adopt-A-Noob program and for that we thank the members of the Uncyclopedia community who care for these vulnerable individuals. If a noob takes the time to read the welcome note that gets placed on their talk page, they stand a better than average chance of not being sent back to this page at some point in their Uncyclopedia career. (If you are an IP please take the time to register for an account so that we can welcome you with some cake. You are an IP if your IP address shows up when you sign your posts or on the page history when you edit pages.)
- Sockpuppets: are pawns of a sockpuppeteer. Creating multiple accounts is discouraged, although we accept it happens from time to time. Creating multiple accounts in an attempt to manipulate a vote is not tolerated, easily uncovered, and punishable by up to 3 years on Olipro's prison island.
- Page Blankers: The lowest common denominator of Uncyclopedia vandal. As many a block summary has stated, blanking is uncreative, feeble-minded, and scientifically proven to be indicative of a small penis. Also, their mothers never hugged them.
Now I know what they are, what do I do?
Well, that depends. If you are one, stop whatever it is you're doing. Find the admin who sent you here, and prostrate yourself at their feet. Bring flowers, chocolates, and naked pics of your hottest female relative (if the admin is a lesbian or a straight male).[1] If you've just spotted one, inform an admin, undo any destructive edits and report the user/IP in question to Ban Patrol. If you snitch on enough vandals, you might even win an award!
Then what?
Absolutely Nothing. Once the admin's done their thing, just carry on like nothing happened. If you taunt, insult or do anything to the troll, you're just giving it what it wants: attention. You may even motivate the troll to come back and do the same thing again under a different name. Remember, Do Not Feed The Trolls. In practice however, ignoring a troll can be difficult, so if you must respond to them, try to follow these guidelines:
- Do not engage with them on their level. This means not blanking, vandalising or resorting to any trollish behaviour yourself. You're better than that.
- Refuse to take anything they say seriously. You edit here because you're funny. Be funny at them.
- Walk away at any time. This is one of the key differences between a normal, balanced individual and a vandal. The regular user has better things to do and realises nothing is lost when he simply gets bored of an argument and leaves. The vandal wants you to care about his argument as much as he does. Don't. Although you might find it entertaining to:
- Pretend to care and sympathise with them. Some of the funniest, most apoplectic vandal tantrums on Uncyclopedia have been precipitated by users appearing to sympathise with their cause and then just walking away. Exercise discretion and judgement, or you may find yourself the target of a fresh wave of attacks. And no administrator is gonna thank you for inspiring a vandal to create a whole bunch of more crap for them to clean up.
I'm a vandal who got banned, can I get unbanned?
No. Well, maybe. As the Blocked User page says, you may attempt to contact an admin; usually the quickest way of doing this is by IRC or Discord. Only bother with this if you understand where you went wrong and want a chance to redeem yourself by making positive contributions. Turning up with an attitude will only result in you getting banned from IRC as well as the site. Read BGBU and HTBFANJS before appealing your ban, as well as any pages that the blocking admin may have directed you to. If all else fails, change your IP and post death threats on their user page. Admins get a lot of these though, so be sure to sign yours with your nickname, real name and home address for ease of reference.
Thank you for playing and have a nice day.
- ↑ If said admin is a gay man or straight female, then, of course, offer your own photo. Assuming you're a dude, of course. And you're probably a dude. Right?

Sir Alex Ferguson says Jose Mourinho is capable of replacing him at Old Trafford
Sir Alex Ferguson says Jose Mourinho is capable of replacing him at Manchester United.
Last Updated: 03/12/12 10:09am
Ferguson stopped short of saying Mourinho should replace him when he finally retires, but he believes the Portuguese has the qualities that would be needed to take over the Old Trafford hotseat.
Ferguson told ITV4: "He can manage anywhere, absolutely. I'm not going to put any forecasts on what is going to happen at this club. I won't last forever, but Jose can manage anywhere, there is no question about that."
Mourinho had little success as a player but as a coach he has already won 21 trophies from 10 years in the dugout.
"I would never think a guy who hasn't played a game could be a top coach, but then you've got to look at his personality, I think his personality does it," Ferguson added.
"He's got a marvellous, strong personality and I think that bridges that gap.
"That's incredible (his trophy haul). How old is he now? Fiftieth year. So he is 20 years behind me. At the same rate he is going to add another 42 trophies. At the current rate, (that is) amazing isn't it?"
When he arrived at Chelsea Mourinho caused a media storm when he referred to himself as a 'Special One', a nickname which has stuck with him.
"I remember his first press conference (at Chelsea) and I thought 'he's cocky, him'," Ferguson said.
"He was telling the players, 'Look, I'm the Special One, we don't lose games'...coming to England, he is only a young man and saying he is the Special One!
"But what it did, it told all the players to have the belief they were going to win the league."
Mourinho himself has made no secret of his desire to return to England - speculation as to where has raged ever since he left Chelsea in 2007 - and he told the programme he would like to win the Champions League with an English club.
With his Madrid side still in this year's competition and having won it already at Porto and Inter, Mourinho said: "In my whole career everything was perfect, the only thing I didn't do, and I hope I can do it one day, is to win a Champions League with an English club."
According to the man many view as a 'mini Mourinho', though, a greater motivation burns for his old mentor.
Until he joined Tottenham in the summer, Andre Villas-Boas' career had mirrored Mourinho's, taking in Porto and Chelsea, although he lasted significantly less time at Stamford Bridge.
But he knows Mourinho well having scouted for him at Chelsea and Inter, and believes the chance to manage his country will one day tempt his old boss.
"Here was a person coming out of a completely different education. He changed the way people trained. Changed the way people spoke about the game, he said.
"I have to say at this moment, if I am sitting here it is because Jose changed the legacy of Portuguese football.
"I think he will be extremely driven to win the World Cup for his country. And when that happens, when statistically he's the best manager that has ever been then I think he will finally leave the game."

Class is a categorization of vehicles by category of displacement and size. We represent vehicles of the same class together as "same class." For example, in the case of the notation "Fit same class", either the Fit itself or another vehicle of the same class as the Fit is arranged.
Rental cars will be rented with gasoline filled fully. Therefore, when returning a car, it is necessary to refill the gasoline. When departing, please make sure that the gasoline is full, and at the time of return, please refill the gasoline and return it. When returning, please keep the receipt when refilling gasoline fully without throwing it away.
If you arrange car rental at the airport, you will take a shuttle bus from the airport to the nearest car rental office except when you can rent a car and leave from the airport. In addition, if you choose a car rental office in the vicinity of a station, you generally have to move to the rental office by yourself.
You can rent a car at any time. Don't you think so? Rental cars may be sold out on popular dates, such as summer holidays, year-end, and New Year's holidays. When planning a trip, we recommend that you first reserve a rental car.
Drop Off is a service that allows you to return a rental car to another office from the departure office.

In the event of an accident, most costs incurred will be covered by insurance that you apply for automatically, but there are two types of expenses you will bear. One is the deductible (50,000 yen or 100,000 yen), and the other is the operating compensation cost (20,000 yen or 50,000 yen). If you apply for the Collision Damage Waiver (CDW), you will not need to pay the deductibles. Normally, a cost of around \1000 per day is necessary, but at Tabirai Car Rental, the price includes the subscription fee to CDW.
In the event of an accident, the cost to be paid by the user for "compensation for lost business" in the repair period of the rental car is the Non-Operation Charge (NOC). When the car is able to run by itself after the accident, the amount to pay will be 20,000 yen, but it will be 50,000 yen if it cannot run. Major rental car companies listed at Tabirai Car Rental have their own insurance that makes payment for the NOC unnecessary, which you can apply for at their car rental offices.
Please access the cancellation / reservation adjustment procedure from the "Reservation Info Box" on the upper right corner of the Top Page.

MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. – The Georgia College soccer squad (5-6, 2-4 PBC) welcomed the newest school to the Peach Belt Conference (PBC) Wednesday, dropping Young Harris College (5-4, 1-4 PBC) 1-0 at Bobcat Field.
Sophomore Ashley Veilleux (Monroe, Ga.) continues to have a hot foot, as the forward netted the lone strike of the night. With 7:48 left on the first-half clock, sophomore Abby Dalton (Macon, Ga.) found Veilleux with a nice lead down the left side, and the latter knocked it in for the 1-0 lead.
The goal was Veilleux's sixth of the year, already eclipsing her total from last season. Dalton recorded her team-best fourth assist on the year.
GC got a few great chances before the halftime horn, cracking off three solid shots in the waning minutes.
The second half was a much tighter contest, particularly down the stretch, as GC out-shot YHC by a slim 9-7 margin in the second stanza.
Sophomore Annie Stephens (Fayetteville, Ga.) recorded her second shutout of the season, making all six stops in the win. Mountain Lion goalkeeper Taylor Erickson made six saves in the loss.
The goal gives Veilleux 11 in her two-year career, good for sixth place in GC history, just one behind Meredith Moran (2004-05). Dalton has now recorded seven career assists, jumping into the top-10 in school history.
The Bobcats are back in action Saturday, Oct. 6 at 3 p.m., hosting UNC Pembroke.
The Georgia College Department of Athletics, two-time winners of the PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 11 varsity athletic programs at the NCAA Division II level. As a Division II program, Bobcat Athletics prides itself on balancing the life of the student-athlete, evidenced by the teams' multiple appearances in post-season competition as well as documented academic success and community-service involvement.

Kitchen. Thursday , May 23rd , 2019 - 02:09:00 AM
Minimal décor - modern kitchens are meant to be minimalist; the old saying 'less is more' holds true for contemporary kitchens. A few open shelves, a modern picture or painting for the wall, a small backsplash - all these design elements are simple and modern.
When it comes to designing the modern kitchen, people typically take one of two design paths. The first path uses modern art as inspiration to create the overall look of the design. Kitchens, of course, are everywhere (any kitchen that uses an electric or gas stove and oven can technically be considered modern). But another tack for the kitchen design is to choose the latest and most recent technologically advanced kitchen appliances and features available. These features are then surrounded with decorative elements of the designer's choosing. Qualified modern designers will help you figure out a balance between the two tacks.
The most important aspect to any design, modern kitchen, modern living room, etc, is you. What do you want your kitchen to feature? What kind of an environment do you want to create? Modern designers will be able to take all of your ideas and inspirations and create a single room that you will love to spend time in. Whether you want a classic and Victorian look paired with modern technology or a contrasting color scheme with 1950s appliances, good modern designers will be able to create something that works for you. When it comes to design, modern kitchen designers can give you anything you want!
In addition to the reality that technology is on the rise, life has actually changed significantly and so have people and their requirements. Modern homes have actually also gone with lots of modifications to give you the ideal contemporary cooking area. The trend today has actually seen kitchens transform from just a store to cook food to a place of bonding with your loved ones. This modifies the means functions are performed in the kitchen area and calls for additional functions to suit the various needs which you might have. Right here are simply a few of the vital aspects of contemporary kitchen areas.
Contemporary furniture - if you've decided you want a modern kitchen, don't just update the cabinets and countertops. There are a multitude of contemporary chairs, tables and other pieces of furniture - you have literally hundreds of options. Instead of buying traditional or plain kitchen chairs, go for contemporary stools to go with your island. Little touches like this can go a long way.
Most of us want what we think of as a 'modern' kitchen. But what, exactly is a modern kitchen? Can't the term 'modern' be used to describe every kitchen that employs electricity? Technically, aren't all kitchens considered a modern convenience? If so, how do you get modern ideas?

For the opening of Expò Ferrari launchs its site in Chinese
Maranello, 30 April – Tomorrow Ferrari.com will speak Chinese. In occasion of the opening of the Expò of Shanghai Ferrari for the first time in its history is launching a Chinese version of its official site. This will be the fourth language that visitors can choose from. It is further proof of the importance that the Chinese market represents for Ferrari and comes straight after the historic world premiere of the 599 GTO at the Beijing Auto Show and contemporaneously with the presentation of the Hybrid concept, the Hy-Kers, at the Expo'.
The website is dedicated specifically to its clients, enthusiasts and fans whose native language is Chinese, not only in China, in Asia but all over the world. It aims to foster an even closer relationship between the Prancing Horse and the Chinese public, and boost the number of Ferrari web users in China by eliminating any language barriers.
Enthusiasts, clients and fans can navigate the site content, enjoy live news updates from Maranello and experience Prancing Horse emotions, activities and products at close hand. They'll discover interactive areas, exclusive images, complete information on all the cars, the F1 Scuderia, News, Community and the Ferrari Store. Thanks to the Maranello Experience, they can even enjoy a virtual tour of the entire company thanks to video clips and other images. The site also allows users to select and personalize the cars in the current range.
Ferrari sold its first car in China in 1993 but it has had a commercial presence since 2004 and last year over 200 cars were sold. Today, Ferrari has 10 dealerships in the country covering Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hangzhou, Chengdu, Chongqing, Nanjing, Dalian and Qingdao. In 2008, the Ferrari owners' club was established and Corso Pilota Ferrari driving courses started in 2005 aims to enable Chinese clients to improve their knowledge of their cars and their own skills behind the wheel.
