BlendsThis brush blends foundation perfectly
GoodThis blends my foundation really well. Leaves a smooth finish
So so soft!The bristles are SO soft, I can use the brush even when my skin is feeling sensitive. Works great as a foundation buffing brush. Great price too ;)
Cheap and EffectiveThis is great value. It is a great price and a good brush. Dense, blends well and lasts a long time
The bestGreat for applying foundation
Great foundation brushI love the real techniques brushes! My skin is often weirdly sensitive to brushes and I'll break out in a bumpy rash but these have never done it to me. This particular brush I don't use often but it is great for buffing out foundation (I just prefer to use a BB!)
Large expert face brushBought the small one for travelling but wanted to get the larger one for my home kit. Great for all liquid/cream products. Sometimes do my whole look sing this.
MultipurposeGreat brush for buffing foundation. I often use it to buff in cream contour/blush too. Good quality brush
Love this brushThis brush is perfect for blending and buffing foundation. I also use it for buffering blush. So so happy with it.
Favorite cream blush brushI actually don't use this for foundation but for applying my cream blush. It's PERFECT for applying colour and blending it seamlessly. Just be light handed if using this for blush as it can pick up quite a bit of product! I don't really use it for foundation but that is because I prefer a sponge instead.
Great foundation brushLove this brush for smoothing our foundation and buffing into the skin. Leaves a flawless finish with no streaks.
Excellent foundation brush.This was the brush that converted me to using foundation brushes. I'd only ever tried the flatter style before without much luck. This brush is really reliable - soft bristles that never fall out, the handle is comfortable to use and it buffs foundation smoothly into the skin without any streaks. I switch between this and a beauty blender for my normal routine, because I find certain foundations s...Read More
Soft and durableFairly inexpensive brush. Very sturdy but soft. It's a great brush for beginners and experts as it is good quality and works well with any liquid foundation. A great addition to any brush collection.
Great brush for foundation!I love this brush for blending out foundation. This is hassle free compared to using a sponge, it is super quick and the foundation doesn't loose its coverage.
Go-to foundation brushHave spent the past few years going between this and a morphe brush, but most times I end up reaching for this again because it's easy to use and is a complete fail safe - I know exactly what I'll get with this brush
Great to blending in liquid foundationI used for my liquid foundation to blend it in and for my banana powder. Really good although would prefer the site to be bigger.
PerfectionI tend to find most make-up brushes don't work for me, this one however is fantastic! A well as the fact that it actually applies product well, i love that it has multiple uses, I will pop my foundation and concealer on with it and then anything else: brush, highlighter, powder etc - it is my all over expert face brush!
Great for foundationI love using this brush for applying and buffing out my liquid foundation. It has dense bristles to effectively apply foundation. Blends your foundation really well so it doesn't look streaky or caked on. The bristles are quite soft and do not shed while washing. Lovely brush.
God sendI literally use half the foundation I used to and get a more full coverage. I am not great at makeup so have always just used my fingers to apply foundation but this was a game changer!! Foundation goes on flawlessly with little effort.
perfect brush for foundationi find this brush is perfect to blend all foundation out seamlessly! It gives a beautiful finish to all foundations and allows application to be simple and fast. The bristles are so soft as well and really good quality! The brush lasts for ages and its very easy to clean. Definitely recommend!
Great foundation brushI LOVE this brush! My foundation application has never been better!
Best foundation brushI love this brush! Perfect for foundation, blends so nicely on the skin and such good quality!
Best foundation brushI love this brush! Perfect for foundation and such good quality!
love this brushgreat for a foundation brush but can also use it for a blush brush or even a powder one! can be used as a multi brush!
good quality for priceThis brush is so good for anyone looking for an everyday decent-priced brush with great quality It's incredibly soft bristles make it excellent for buffing and blending liquid foundation/concealer. But it's a bit small, which takes a bit more effort to use, and I've had a few loose bristles here and there.
Beautifully softA beautiful extremely soft brush that makes my skin and foundation look flawless
Best brush!I love this brush. It is amazing for applying and buffing foundation and doesn't leave foundation looking streaky. If I don't use a sponge, I reach for this brush. It's also great to buff over blush and bronzer if too much has been applied.
Love this for foundationLove this brush to blend foundation, gets to all the hard to reach spots around the nose and chin but blends colour beautifully.
Good brushLove this brush. Use it everyday to apply foundation. Great at blending and does not soak up much product. Have similar brushes from other brands but would defiantly recommend this one
excellentthis brush is so nice i love it and it makes applying foundation so easy
Great brushI really like this brush, it blends my foundation evenly and gives a great finish. The bristles are so soft. Highly recommend.
Better than i expected.This brush isn't just good for foundation you can also blend cream highlighters, concealers, everything. happy with this!
the ULTIMATE brushThis is the most perfect brush for light-medium coverage foundations, cream bronzers, blushes, and highlighters! Blendes products like a dream and helps meld all the products together so it looks perfectly blended and flawless. I don't think the brush is as great for full coverage foundations, as it does leave brush strokes but quickly using a damp beauty blender afterwards solves that really easi...Read More
great for applying foundationgreat brush for blending in foundation and streak free. brush also doesnt absorb all the product which is great
Affordable foundation brushThe best!! Really good value. I have owned mine for years. Doesn't shed and buffs foundation in awesomely
Great for foundationThis brush gives skin a flawless look. I've had mine for a few years now and it's still in really good condition
flawless applicationi have used this for years to apply foundation. it gives me flawless full coverage and does not soak up any of the product. would definitely recommend
The best foundation brush!100% recommend! Ever since I got one I have told all my friends to get one and they love them. It easily blends your makeup, effortlessly and precisely. I would never go back to any other foundation brush. I clean mine weekly, and never seem to have hairs come astray either!
GREAT Affordable brushes!I really Loved this brush. I think it's great quality for so cheap, super soft and applies product so well!! I have this one in my brush kit today, and will continue to repurchase. LOVE
Best Foundation Brush!I have been using this brush for around 5 years and it has never let me down - perfect for applying foundation. Will keep repurchasing again and again and again!!
Great Foundation BrushI love this brush from Real Techniques for when I want a slightly more full coverage look to my foundation (I often use a beauty sponge or fingers to apply). The density of the brush gets the product on really well, and blends it out evenly without streaks. Whilst it seems some think it is too small, I find the smaller size and shape of the brush works well for really getting the product everywh...Read More
Real Technique is amazing in generalGreat brush for blush & powder application. I like it
A go-toLove this brush for my foundation, have had mine for over 5 years and it still works like a legend. Definitely a long-lasting brush and does exactly what I want it to do.
AwesomeLove the brand as the price is really low for how great the quality of the brushes are. I think this tool has helped make my foundation nice and even on the skin.
UndecidedI bought this brush with the intention of using it for foundation but I feel like it did not work very well in that sense. I am used to a flatter topped brush so this could be why. I am using it as a blending brush however and am happy with it for that.
best foundation brushThe best foundation brush for the price point. Before this, I used to use a flat foundation brush to apply foundation and then a flat top buffing brush to blend it in. This brush does both. It's dense enough to pack on product but fluffy enough to buff it in. It makes applying foundation so much faster and more seamless
GreatI always reach for this! perfectly fits around the face.
Go to contouring brush!This is my go to contouring face brush - it's soft and easy to blend with, yet dense enough to give me a defined and sculpted contour. Definitely recommended!
good foundation brushI keep this in my makeup bag for foundation and concealer!
Great qualityPerfect brush for applying foundation. It applies foundation evenly onto the face. It is also a great price for the quality.
Must have for quick, effortless and flawless application.Being a mum of a toddler, I am very limited with the amount of time I have to apply my makeup. This brush has ticked all of my boxes! It is so easy to blend out and gives perfect coverage, the handle is so comfortable to hold and maneuver. It helps cut down the time in which I apply my make up. And my favourite of all is that I don't waste anywhere near as much product as I do when I use a Beauty ...Read More
Great brush for foundationThis brush is great for a flawless finish of foundation. I've been using this for years and I always love the results it gives
Affordable Foundation BrushGreat brush for foundation, super soft bristles which doesn't absorb too much product. I usually go over my foundation with a sponge after using this just to press it into my skin, giving it a more flawless and blended look.
Excellent quality brush for blending foundationThis is great quality makeup brush, I use this to apply my foundation and goes on very well. Highly recommended
Great Quality BrushI love this foundation brush! It is of a very high quality, with super soft, high density bristles. It makes smoothing out foundation a breeze. Sometimes I will use the brush to spread out the foundation and then bounce the Real Techniques sponge to create a flawless finish.
Best Foundation Brush EverReal techniques brushes are always high quality however this one has quite a small surface area for a buffing style brush - so allows you to get into all the cracks and creases. I love it
NiceOne of the best affordable brushes. Definitely a must-have, highly recommended!
Good BrushI love using this brush for my new Clarins Skin Illusion foundation. Goes on and blends perfectly with no streaks and even. I have had it for a few years now and I think it does better at applying lighter more serum like products than heavier products.
Such good qualityLove real techniques brushes they're such good quality they've lasted me so long. I love this brush I use it as a buffing brush, the brisles a shorter and a little firmer which makes this amazing to spread and buff out any liquid foundation!
SO FLUFFYThis makes your foundation spread like a dream , it always looks absolutely flawless, never any fall out from the brush and is so soft.
Flawless makeup applicationThis is the second time I've purchased this brush which shows how much I really love it. I use it to blend liquid and cream foundations and it makes application a breeze. The bristles are soft but dense enough to prevent streaks.
StreakyBought this before beauty sponges became huge and was looking for a good way to apply foundation and thought this was the answer because I always heard such good things about it. Unfortunately it made my foundation EXTREMELY streaky. Especially on my nose. I had to pat out the streaks with my fingers and really had to finesse the foundation in with this brush. It also feels kind of scratchy on my ...Read More
Good for heavy foundationFirm and blends great, only bad thing is that my brush has deteriorated and some bristles have come loose after a few years of use
Great for foundationAt first I thought this was too small for foundation but after using this multiple times I really like it. Small enough for precision and no streaky lines.
My daily go to!I have loved this brush for years. I use it to apply liquid foundation to my face and love the look it gives. it is easy to hold and doesnt shed.
Small surface areaReal techniques brushes are always high quality however this one has quite a small surface area for a buffing style brush - so I just think it takes too much time and effort to blend everything in.
ExcellentI love to use this when I'm doing a heavier coverage look, blends great
GreatMust have Real Techniques brush for liquid foundation application. This is a dense brush, blends foundations in really flawlessly, washes well and retains shape. Also great at buffing out cream contour and blush.
was expecting morei got this brush expecting that it would give that air brush look to my foundation. tried with many different foundations but it always leaves foundation streaks on my face. i have dry skin maybe that is the problem. but now i use this brush for blush which has worked fine for me.
Blends wellGreat for blending heavier coverage foundation
Foundation goes on flawlesslyThis brush is amazing - I use Too Faced Born This Way liquid foundation & have always struggled with a nice finish with no streaks etc. This brush feels so beautifully soft on my skin & spreads my foundation beautifully. I'm not a fancy brush person so I am pretty stoked that it is so affordable too!
Favourite blush brushI have been using this brush for years as my blush brush! I absolutely love it!
Great coverageMany of the brushes I've used in the past don't have the great coverage that this brush does! It flawlessly applies foundation and you can build coverage without it being cakey. Blending is super easy too and it leaves no lines or distinctions.
Use it everyday!I use this brush everyday to apply my foundation, Perfect seamless application - with little effort. Easy to wash and the bristles dont fall out. Great price point!
One of the bestI use daily when I'm putting on my foundation as it doesnt absorb much product hence, I dont need to pack on my foundation when I'm using it. It blends out my foundation seamlessly. I've been using this brush for years now and will never go to another brush again.
Love itIt's super soft and wonderful at blending in foundation. Creates a really lovely finish without leaving really obvious brush strokes, as some other brushes do. Easy to get into the corners also cos it's soft. Really affordable price too!
Great value & QualityI've been using this brush for about a month now and its really great quality for price. Really soft and doesn't seem to lose any bristles (Yet).
Easy to blendGreat foundation brush, blends everything perfect
Soft brush & great valueI recently purchased this brush and in the mini size and its really soft and great for applying foundation. Very happy with purchase!
Value for moneyIf you're after a good brush on a budget, this is a great option. It's soft and plush, bouncing back to shape after each application. It does absorb a lot of product though and can be quite tough to get out even with good brush cleansers. I do have more expensive brushes that don't seem to have this problem, but I still think this is a great brush for the price.
UndecidedI'm not sold on this brush but perhaps I'm not using it correctly. I prefer to use a regular foundation brush for liquid foundation. This does do a good job of buffing the foundation in after it's already applied, but I usually use a sponge for that.
WonderfulI've been using this brush every day for one month now and no bristles have fallen out, it's lovely and soft and does a wonderful job at applying my foundation and cleaning up around the eyes. It also cleans very well and I'm not there for ages trying to work the foundation out of the brush. Love it!
really good for the priceI love how dense the brush is which helps to apply product evenly
Flawless finishThis brush is great for blending heavier foundations for full coverage and a flawless look. After using this brush for around 2 years daily the bristles have come loose from washing the brush so much so will be repurchasing!
Great brushFantastic brush - Super soft & great price. Good size to get into those tighter spaces on the face. I think it applies foundation smoothly. Great starter brush!
GreatI use this brush for contouring and find it works really well. You can't go pass Real Techniques brushes. I have added this one to my collection.
Great brush especially for the price!I use this for my cream and powder contours, been using for almost a year (washed many times) and is still holding up so well! Great price and definitely would recommend. Soft and overall good quality!
GoodI really like this for putting on my foundation as it doesn't soak up the product at all, however it can leave streaks so I like to go over it with a sponge just to smooth it out.
Pretty gooda nice brush that I use for a variety of different things! super soft and easy to control
Perfect for foundationI love this brush for blending out my foundation. It helps distribute product evenly and ensures the coverage for the foundation is still on the skin. One of my favourite ways to apply foundation.
GreatWonderful for blending foundation and concealer in bigger areas!
UndecidedI wanted to try out a new foundation brush after years of using the Sigma f80 and this brush had great reviews. Personally, I much prefer the Sigma for a more full coverage, even and quick application. However, there are benefits to this brush that the sigma doesnt offer in that it really gets into difficult areas with ease; nose, around eyes. I think it would be a good brush for contouring which...Read More
GreatI used to use this brush to help apply my foundation, but have gone off using foundation altogether. So I now use this brush to buff away any excess blush or bronzer that I may have applied to heavily. It is a fantastic multi-purpose brush that you can use for almost anything. I love the Real Techniques range!
Does the trickI have bought and rebought this brush many times over the years. I use it daily to apply my foundation evenly and streak free. It is fail safe and a great way to blend makeup into the hair and jaw line.
Amazing BrushRecommended it to all my friends such a great brush for foundation makes it so flawless.
GoodI liked the old version of this as it blended my liquid foundation really well, but I feel like they may have changed it? Or maybe I got one which wasn't packed tightly enough, because I feel like my new one blends my foundation a bit more streakily than it used to. It is good as a final product to use once already having blended out foundation to smooth it over as a last step, but not the best fo...Read More
Fantastic BrushIve had this brush for literally years and its still amazing! i really like using it for liquid foundations and building the product up with this and its great for that. It can be a little bit streaky but i just go over it with a sponge but otherwise this is a great brush.
Great for powder foundationI recently bought the Bare Minerals Blemish Remedy powder foundation as I wanted something light and something that will actually help my blemish prone skin.
Being a liquid foundation girl, I had no idea how to apply and blend the powder foundation in - I was recommended this brush and it does the job brilliantly. It doesnt pick up too much product so you can build it up nicely and it...Read More
VERY GOODI love using this brush to messily and quickly blend my foundation before going in with a sponge. The only downfall is that it leaves streaks but i love it because it gives high coverage and then i go lightly over with my RT sponge to remove streaks but still maintain a full coverage! highly recommend

Gaza (Agenzia Fides) – This year Christians in Gaza will not have permission from the Israeli authorities to cross the border at Erez in order to visit relations and friends in Jerusalem, Bethlehem and other towns in the Holy Land Terra to celebrate Christmas together. According to the Middle East Concern organisation this year most of the travel permits requested have been refused. Permits have been issued only for persons aged 55 and over (although some of these may remain in Gaza, because they are elderly and cannot travel unaccompanied).
In recent years many requests for permits presented especially by the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem, were granted. On the occasion of Christmas 2016, more than 600 permits were issued. Whereas last Easter, already permits were issued only to people over 55 . A measure that reduced considerably the number of Christians from Gaza able to use the permits issued by the Israeli government. (GV) (Agenzia Fides 11/12/2018).

You've been married the majority of your life. You're 50 now, and you married young at 18. Now, your spouse has decided that he wants to move on. Everything you have is shared between you, and you just want to make sure you receive your fair share in the divorce.
You may believe you're entitled to certain things because of how long you've been married, but it can be hard to state exactly what you're entitled to. How can you make sure you get what you want and need?
1. Determine which assets you have and if they are separate or marital property
There may be some assets you have that are separate, even if you've been married for all this time. Anything you brought into the marriage may be separate. Any inheritances you've obtained or separate accounts may be separate as well.
If you have purchased a home together, share accounts or share other items, they are likely shared assets that must be divided in the divorce. Before you can decide how to distribute your assets, make sure to write them all down and to give them a value.
2. Consider negotiations with mediation
The benefit of mediation is that the mediator is familiar with the law. The mediator won't make decisions for you, but he or she can help you understand the implications of any decisions you do make.
Even if you and your spouse get along, choosing mediation can assist in resolving any disputes that do come up and gives you the peace of mind that you understand what you want to do.
3. Follow laws in your state
North Carolina is an equitable distribution state. That means that your assets won't necessarily be split 50/50. Instead, they will be divided in a fair way. Take the time to develop a strong case for why you want what you do from your marriage to make sure you have the best chance of obtaining those assets.
These are a few tips for dividing your assets and getting what you need out of your marriage. With the right education, you can make good choices now that benefit you in the future.

The Bramin people are guided by a compromise and diligence that, generation after generation, have perpetuated the wisdom that shines out from self-sacrifice. The roots of their lineage have not sprouted from the mean-spirited desires of man, but from the abundant richness of the divine.
There are no individuals in the Bramin hierarchy, all decisions where already made, now responsibility is all that is left. The Sequence towers above every single one of them and gives them a name, a name that will dictate every step in their lives.
There are actions that pass from father to son and words that take centuries to pronounce. The Bramin people are a unity that stands against the silence of the end of the world.
The forgotten, the unfortunate ones who remained alive, the generation that pays for the sins of their ancestors. The New Tenant do not form any group, but rather wander about hunting one another in a great dead end: the ruins of the modern world, the city of Karnathaka.
Outlawed by the new order, they have learned to live while being hounded and killed by the city. And so, those deserted from progress are scavengers by nature that take anything they can find to fulfil the most wretched desires.
Nevertheless, they are the first in the line of fire, the salt of the earth. While it is unbeknownst to them when and how they got here or what their intentions might have been, they know full well who is the enemy and so they fight it.
Old hunters who sailed the vast oceans since the ice gave birth to water. They have remained calm in front of the chaos since the world became.
Always on the side-lines of the great historic events, they inhabit the cold northern glaciers in the hardest of seasons, but their true home is in the arduous passing of a long pursuit.
The Mosoma tribes have not changed their traditions, they are simple and hard people: respect for the gods and happy hunting, there is where the fortune lies.
Those who noticed the loss of voice of the firmament ended up trapped by the bindweed of torment. Touched by fatality, the Teluric carry the weight of all evil that roams the earth. From this very nature emanate their inexplicable powers.
Only once in a while, a cursed creature is born among the tribes with no caste. Its existence carries the stigma of heresy, and so, its own people, fearing the persecution of the Bramin Counsel, turn their back on it.
As time goes by, darkness takes hold of the Teluric's eyes and the silenced scream of pain transforms into the hymn of the exiled and the shiver of the pure souls casts the total destruction: a craving for the negation of live.

Emergency contraceptive pills and weight
Manufacturer of emergency contraceptive pill warns of effectiveness in overweight women. By Kirsten Braun
HRA Pharma, the manufacturer of emergency contraceptive pill (ECP) NorLevo, recently announced that they were updating their packaging information to warn women it was not recommended for women over 75 kilograms. NorLevo contains the progestogen levonorgestrel.
What about other brands of ECP?
Levonorgestrel is also the active ingredient in other brands of ECP sold in Australia, Postinor and Levonelle. The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) is currently reviewing the information to determine whether any other action is required in Australia, and if so, whether the patient information for all brands of ECP should be updated.
What led to the manufacturer changing their information?
HRA Pharma was prompted to look at the effectiveness of their drug following the publication of a study in Contraception in 2011. This meta-analysis found the risk of pregnancy for women taking ECP was threefold greater for obese women and 1.5 times greater for overweight women compared with women with a normal body mass index. The study authors found levonorgestrel "showed a rapid decrease of efficacy with increasing BMI reaching the point where it appeared no different from pregnancy rates expected among women not using EC at a BMI of 26kg/m²". According to the World Health Organization, overweight women are between 25 and 30kg/m²and obese women are 30kg/m² and above.
However, the study authors also explained that the meta-analysis was based on two randomised controlled trials, neither of which was specifically set up to investigate weight and its impact on the effectiveness of ECP. In addition, the number of pregnancies in overweight and obese women was relatively small, 13 and 20 respectively. There is, therefore, a real need for a large randomised controlled trial specifically examining weight and the effectiveness of levonorgestrel.
What does it mean for women?
Women requiring emergency contraception who are obese or overweight may wish to also consider the use of a copper intra-uterine device (IUD). Copper IUDs prevent 99% of pregnancies if inserted within 5 days and provide women with ongoing contraception. However, copper IUDs need to be inserted by a skilled health professional making this option difficult to access within the required time frame. In addition, many women are not accepting of IUDs and would not find this a satisfactory alternative. Another more effective ECP, ulipristal acetate, is not yet available in Australia. In the absence of larger studies into weight and ECP and the lack of ulipristal acetate as an alternative ECP, women who are overweight or obese should access the levonorgestrel ECP rather than leave it to chance.
All women requiring ECP should access it as soon as possible, within 72 hours after unprotected sex, but ideally within 24 hours. ECP can be taken up to five days after unprotected sex but are not particularly effective after four days. ECP can be obtained over the counter from most chemists.
If women who take ECP find their period is more than seven days late they should follow up with a pregnancy test to determine if they are pregnant.
The importance of long-term contraception
In the Contraception meta-analysis, 20% of the women had further unprotected sex, making them more than four times more likely to become pregnant than women who did not report further unprotected sex. It is important, therefore, that after the first episode of unprotected sex women do not place themselves at risk of pregnancy again by choosing a reliable form of contraception to use longer term.

Merck™ Novagen™ Origami™ 2 (DE3) Competent Cells
Origami 2 strains have mutations in glutathione reducatase (gor) and thioredoxin reductase (trxB), facilitating proper disulfide bond formation.
en la oferta
|Requisitos de almacenamiento
|Store at ≤-70deg.C
DescripciónOrigami™ 2 host strains are K-12 derivatives that have mutations in both the thioredoxin reductase (trxB) and glutathione reductase (gor) genes, which greatly enhance disulfide bond formation in the E. coli cytoplasm. The Origami 2 strains are kanamycin sensitive; like the original Origami strains, the gor mutation is still selected for by tetracycline. To reduce the possibility of disulfide bond formation between molecules, strains containing mutations in trxB and gor are recommended only for the expression of proteins that require disulfide bond formation for proper folding. DE3 indicates that the host is a lysogen of λDE3, and therefore carries a chromosomal copy of the T7 RNA polymerase gene under control of the lacUV5 promoter. Such strains are suitable for production of protein from target genes cloned in pET vectors by induction with IPTG.

Paris Motor Show 2010 has been enriched with a completely green presence- the new Fluence Z.E. Concept from Renault.
The concept is greener than any other vehicle displayed at Paris Motor Show, the manufacturers carefully choosing for their creation the color that best describes its intentions towards environment- "green".
Based on the new Kangoo Be Bop, Renault Fluence Z.E. Concept received its name from "Zero Emissions", being a fully electric car. The vehicle is powered by a 70 Kw engine with a maximum torque of 226 Nm. Its energy is supplied by a lithium-ion battery pack.
Renault ZE has been designed to minimize power consumption without sacrificing comfort in any way related to lighting and air conditioning. Moreover, the energy level in Renault Fluence Z.E. Concept is assured by a complex system of insulation, which consists of the exterior dye reflecting the sunlight and the heat-insulating layers. Through this system, the interior temperature is maintained as long as possible, reducing the energy consumption required for thermal comfort. Moreover, the solar panels placed on the car power a temperature control system, without being necessary to turn on the engine in order to star the air conditioning system- which functions even when the car is not running.
On the other hand, the exterior mirrors have been replaced by video cameras with low energy consumption, powered by the solar panels placed above the vehicle. The headlamps use light-emitting diodes, long life and low power consumption LEDs.
However, the most interesting aspect of the Renault Fluence Z.E. Concept is, in my opinion, its futuristic design. The concept places us one step into a better future. Renault Fluence Z.E. is characterized by smooth, curved lines and an innovative color chosen for its windows (green).
Interactivity and comfort are also standard specifications of the new ZE, presented this year in the Renault stand at Paris Motor Show. The vehicle recognizes the passengers from quite a big distance, emitting light signals. A linear display on the doors indicates the autonomy left, even before you start the engine.
The MMI system, equipped with charging stations is capable of indicating the closest park space and the autonomy level left. Information is broadcast from the vehicle to driver through a mobile phone connected directly to your dashboard. An important advantage of such a system is that it avoids the huge energy consumption of an onboard computer.
Renault Fluence Z.E. Concept is an adorable futuristic concept, which would be perfect for our crowded and polluted cities. It is a view towards a greener and livelier world.

What affect voluntary contributions to national parks? A field study in Cahuita National Park
The project investigates the determinants of contributions (compulsory and voluntary) to national parks, understanding the motivations behind the contribution and how external factors influence the level of the contribution.
Cahuita National Park does not charge entrance fees as other national park in Costa Rica, but instead relies on voluntary contributions as an instrument to raise revenues for the park. There are two different groups with interest in the donation; (i) the national park system (SINAC), which is concerned with the management of the park primarily for conservation objectives and perceives the donations as a source of funds to cover the expenditures of the National Park. (ii) The local community of Cahuita, which receives a variable share of the revenues raised through donations but is mostly concerned about the spillover effects from visitation to Cahuita National Park on the local community.
The park authorities and the community have started to discuss ways to raise revenues that include the provision of more information about the use of the funds but also the possibility of establishing a two-part entrance fee that includes a fixed payment and a voluntary contribution. Our study goes to the heart of both issues.
Thus, the project consists of several research questions; (i) what motivate contributions?; (ii) how contributions affected by external factors?; and (iii) is there a crowding out of contributions if entrance fees are introduced?
The project will consist in two mayor parts. The first part studies the effect of changes of information on actual donation. By running different treatments, e.g. varying information on why to donate and the levels of other donations, we will investigate the effect on their donation. Then, to complement the research on the effect of imposing compulsory contributions by entrance fees on voluntary contributions and total contributions, we will conduct a special designed public goods experiment in a laboratory environment.

Testing registration scenario against django with lettuce and selenium webdriver
on Jan 14, 2013 by Danu
We'll use Firefox by default since it has webdriver support built-in. If you want to use Chrome you'll need to download the chrome driver separately.
First let's extend django default settings with lettuce specific configurations. This way we avoid running tests against dev db and declare another db to run tests against. This is actually bad, the lack of test database integration with django and the fact that lettuce server is used over LiveServerTestCase may cause reliability issues in the future (see django test database). Add
lettuce.django to INSTALLED_APPS. You can also specify the app names in LETTUCE_APPS to run tests against, so that you won't need to type the app name as command-line parameters.
from settings import * DATABASES = INSTALLED_APPS += ( 'lettuce.django', ) LETTUCE_APPS = ( 'registerap', )
Test structure
Lettuce will look for a features folder inside every installed app. For each app you want to create lettuce tests you have to create a sub folder called features. Our features are stored under
registerapp folder. The "feature" file contains scenarios, while ".py" file contains python code executed for steps used in scenarios.
Feature: Register In order to get access to app A user should be able to register Scenario: User registers Given I go to the "/register" URL When I fill in "username" with "danul" And I fill in "email" with "email@example.com" And I fill in "password1" with "test123" And I fill in "password2" with "test123" And I press "submit" Then I should see "Check your email" And I should receive an email at "firstname.lastname@example.com" with the subject "Activate your djangoproject.com account - you have 7 days!" And I activate the account Then I should see "Congratulations!" Scenario: User logs in successfully Given I go to the "/login" URL When I fill in "username" with "danul" And I fill in "password" with "test123" And I press "submit" Then I should see "Welcome, danul. Thanks for logging in."
We are importing
django_url utility function so we can easily access web pages within steps using relative urls. We also importing the email backend that sends mails to a multiprocessing queue. Because Django server runs in a different process than lettuce you are not able to use the
EMAIL_BACKEND specified in settings file, not to mention that
harvest.py is using
django.test.utils.setup_test_environment that overrides email backend to
import re from lettuce import step, world from lettuce.django import django_url from lettuce.django import mail from nose.tools import assert_equals @step(u'I go to the "(.*)" URL') : world.response = world.browser.get(django_url(url)) @step(u'I fill in "(.*)" with "(.*)"') : world.browser.find_element_by_name(field).send_keys(value) @step(u'I press "(.*)"') : button = world.browser.find_element_by_id(button_id) button.click() @step(u'I should see "(.*)"') : h1 = world.browser.find_element_by_tag_name('h1') assert_equals(h1.text, expected_response) @step(u'And I should receive an email at "([^"]*)" with the subject "([^"]*)"') : message = mail.queue.get(True, timeout=5) world.email_body = message.body assert_equals(message.subject, subject) assert_equals(message.recipients(), [address]) @step(u'And I activate the account') : activation_url = re.findall( r'http[s]?://(?:[a-zA-Z]|[0-9]|[$-_@.&+]|[!*\(\),]|(?:%[0-9a-fA-F][0-9a-fA-F]))+', world.email_body ) world.response = world.browser.get(activation_url)
Its about setup and teardown. We setup the browser instance using webdriver. We prepare the test environment by running the django
syncdb command which creates the database tables as well loading any fixtures named
initial_data. Teardown test environment by destroying the test database. Different hooks and commands can be used, for e.g: before each scenario load specific fixtures using
from django.core.management import call_command from django.db import connection from django.conf import settings from lettuce import before, after, world from selenium import webdriver world.browser =
Running lettuce tests
All that's left is running the tests:
python manage.py harvest tests/lettuce_selenium_tests --settings=conf.settings_lettuce
Source code for this project can be found on github:

Cat portraits and drawings
We own two cats, 'Max' and 'Tigger'. Interestingly, or not, both cats came to us because they had been abandoned. Max was a ferral kitten, who was found on a farm in Wiltshire. He is a big brusier of cat, but has such a gentle temprement. Tigger was rescued by my oldest daughter when she moved in to a new flat, Tigger had been left by a previous tennant, but my daughter could not keep him, so he came home with us to Devon. Tigger is so different from Max, much more fiesty. Comparing the two is like chalk and cheese.
Really as an artist, I have no excuse, not to be sketching cats all day long, maybe I should do a 'cat a day' set of drawings. Something to think about as a new project.
Below is a selection of Cat portraits, independent and loyal, our friend the cat.
Now if you would like your cat, or a family or friends cat immortalised in pencil, please take a quick look at my Commission page for more details.
Commission drawing of 'Clyde' drawn on Fabriano 5 Hot Press paper. Poor Clyde was hit by a car in 2012, drawing was a lovely reminder for his owner.
Commission drawing of 'Kolo' drawn on Bristol Board. A lovely commission to do, great fun capturing the blackness of the cat.
Commission drawing of 'Star' drawn on Bristol Board, as a Mothers day gift.
Commission drawing of 'Cleo' drawn on Arches Aquarelle 185gsm Hot Press paper. Not my usual paper, but I really enjoyed using it, so will use this paper agian.
Commission drawing of 'Jali' a Bengal cat.
Private collection, our cat 'Max' when he was just a young cat. Now he is bigger and older, but still a wonderful companion.
Commission drawing of 'Sophie' was part of a drawing with 'Barney' from the dog page.
A quick commission drawing of 'Tigger' drawn as a gift for Christmas. Prints available from prints page.

Shaving Tips For Women: How to Shave (the right way!)
To get the very Best Fake Tan, it's important to prepare your skin too. For many of us, skin preparation includes shaving or waxing. For those of us, who enjoy the convenience of shaving, here are some shaving tips to get the best results.
Wet shaving is the best when it comes to shaving. Whether that's using water or a shaving preparation. Making sure that legs, underarms or bikini area are properly moisturized is a vital first step.
Drier hair is must more difficult to cut with a razor, leading to your razors getting blunter more quickly. You want to keep your razors are sharp as possible because a sharp blade is crucial to getting a close, comfortable, snag-free shave.
Tips On Shaving Underarms
Underarms are probably the area where people get their shaving technique wrong. That's because it may feel natural to bring the razor down. However, this direction is incorrect. Here are some of the top tips on the correct way to shave your underarms.
- Moisten skin and prepare the area with a shaving gel.
- Pull the skin under the arm tightly, with the arm lifted.
- Shave from the bottom up.
- Try to remove all hair in one sweep, to minimize skin irritation.
- Avoid applying deodorants or antiperspirants immediately after shaving, as doing so can result in stinging skin.
- Moisten skin with water for about three minutes, then apply a thick shaving gel. Water plumps up the hair, making it easier to cut, and the shaving gel helps retain the moisture.
- Use long, even strokes without applying excessive pressure. Shave carefully over bony areas like ankles, shins and knees.
- For knees, bend slightly to pull the skin tight before shaving, as folded skin is difficult to shave.
- Stay warm to prevent goose bumps, as any irregularity in the skin surface can complicate shaving.
- Wire-wrapped blades, like those made by Schick® or Wilkinson Sword, help prevent careless nicks and cuts. Don't press too hard! Simply let the blade and handle do the work for you
- Remember to shave in the direction of hair growth. Take your time and shave carefully over sensitive areas. For a closer shave, carefully shave against the grain of hair growth.
- Moisten skin and apply a thick shaving gel.
- Lift your arm up while shaving to pull skin tight.
- Shave from the bottom up, allowing the razor to glide over the skin.
- Avoid shaving the same area more than once, to minimize skin irritation.
- Wire-wrapped blades, like those made by Schick® or Wilkinson Sword, help prevent careless nicks and cuts. Don't press too hard! Simply let the blade and handle do the work for you.
- Avoid applying deodorants or antiperspirants immediately after shaving, as doing so can result in irritation and stinging. To prevent this, shave underarms at night and give the area time to stabilize before using deodorant.
Bikini Area
- Moisten hair for three minutes with water and then apply a thick shaving gel. This preparation is a must, as the hair in the bikini area tends to be thicker, denser and curlier, making it more difficult to cut.
- Handle the skin in the bikini area gently, as it is thin and tender.
- Shave horizontally, from the outside to the inside of the upper thigh and groin area, using smooth even strokes.
- Shave frequently year-round to keep the area free of irritation and ingrown hairs.
Post shave tips and tricks
Skin is at its most sensitive immediately after shaving. To prevent inflammation, let skin rest at least 30 minutes before:
- Applying lotions, moisturizers or medications. If you must moisturize immediately following shaving, select a cream formula rather than a lotion, and avoid exfoliating moisturizers that may contain alpha hydroxy acids.
- Going swimming. Freshly shaved skin is vulnerable to the stinging effects of chlorine and salt water, as well as suntan lotions and sunscreens that contain alcohol.

This morning has been One of Those Mornings. Gracie has her first official daycare cold and yes, I know she is building her immune system and blah blah blah, but leaving her when she is sick is my least favorite thing about being a working mother. Thankfully, my mother-in-law volunteered to watch her for the day, but being up all night suctioning and wiping and rocking left even more mentally drained than usual this morning.
So, by the time I got in the car and realized that what had formally been 75 and sunny was now 59 and raining, I just didn't care. Yes, I was soaked and freezing, but oh well. And then when I looked around for my umbrella and had a flashback of me, in a post-partum hormonal cleaning frenzy, chunking it out the back door, again I thought ah well, I won't melt. But, when I looked in the back seat and my eyes were met with other eyes, piercing green eyes that were most certainly NOT supposed to be in the back of my car, I freaked. Tired, wet, freezing...fine. Hallucinating...we have a problem.
Thankfully, I didn't fall down the rabbit hole just yet. The cat evidently decided hitching a ride to work sounded like a good idea. Once I stopped screaming, screeched back home, and dropped her rear off, I had to laugh.
You know how after you lose a loved one, people will always say, very sentimentally, "they are looking down on you from Heaven now".
Well, if that's true, I can only hope Rip gets a laugh or two out of his mother being a crazy girl...and maybe adds a little extra emphasis on the guardian part of angel on his little sister's behalf.

So I've decided that I'm going to be better at this. I think it's important to keep a diary and a record and a running thought commentary at times, and I've let my blogs disappear as such, (apart from the twitter updates on the LJ), which are kind of annoying I guess, if you read them daily.
I'm also a little obsessed lately with the idea of there being some sort of record of my existence. I know of course that it's not like I'll disappear tomorrow, but with all this reading I've been doing about WWII (which seems so insane and different from my life now but hey), I'm fascinated by all this journal-keeping that went on, a record of what was happening around them.
I also have a busy life here, and a lot of thoughts, and a whole world of friends that don't live here around me, so I really should be making more of an effort to keep up. I just feel like my time is so limited and it's all eaten up by work and trying to sleep to feel alive and awake at work. Which shouldn't be the way, but that's what shift work does to you.
And then of course, there's the long-distance relationship I have going on. Because I am mental. (And because D is wonderful). But it means co-ordinating schedules a bit, and having 11 hours difference between us can be interesting at times. It'll be even harder when he gets a proper job.
So at the moment I'm working on living, and then after that if I get some free time to write, that's a bonus. I do have a bit of a hiatus from work coming up this weekend, so hopefully some writings will flow forth then. Watch this space.

On October 29, the first hearing regarding Mykola Martynenko's appeal against the Anti-Corruption Action Center took place. Attorneys of former MP (Narodnyi Front), who is accused by NABU in several corruption crimes at once, demand to delete all information about their client from the website of AntAC's project pep.org.ua – the Register of domestic politically exposed persons.
During one hearing, judge V.V. Bortnytska managed to hear legal demands of attorneys, AntAC's objections and evidence of both parties and announced the break. The next hearing is scheduled for 16.30 on December 10. It will begin with parties' debates.
"Such speed of consideration of the case in overburdened Pechersk Court only testifies about the fact that someone is interested in a very quick decision regarding this case. This is a lightning speed. And it suggests unpleasant guesses about who will help resolve the dispute ", – Oleksandr Lytvyn, AntAC's lawyer, can not hide his surprise. "We asked to stop the trial until completely similar Mykola Martynenko's appeal against NABU will be considered. After all, most of information that became known about participation of former MP in corruption schemes, we learned from results of investigation of NABU detectives. And we used information published by them", – adds the lawyer.
We should remind that according to the appeal, Martynenko accuses AntAC of supposedly illegal use of his name in description of criminal offenses and corruption cases, investigated by NABU, where his guilt or participation is still not confirmed by the court.
However, the judge decided to continue examining the appeal of former MP and even managed to hear evidence. At the same time, part of written evidence, namely links to court decisions and publications on NABU's website, were "considered" by judge Bortnytska absolutely formally. She only looked through the page and did not follow any links.
Watch full record of the trial by the link: https://bit.ly/2Jr5bFK
We should remind that the issue concerns information regarding reputation and business connections, the so-called Martynenko's dossier, published in Public Register of Domestic Politically Exposed Persons. This is a database developed by the NGO. It helps banks to identify politically exposed persons among their clients and has over 30,000 documented records of Ukrainian politicians, prosecutors, judges, law enforcement officials and their relatives.
The politician demands to remove information derived from court decisions about his connections with offshore companies, through which, as established by NABU detectives, financial transactions were conducted. In the opinion of former MP, this ruins his business reputation. Therefore, he demands in his appeal to remove his dossier from the Public Register of Domestic Politically Exposed Persons and to prohibit AntAC to publish information on criminal proceedings or information about corporate rights with a mention of his name.
"It is obvious that presence of Martynenko's profile in the Public Register of PEPs, which is used by foreign banks and intelligence, complicates, or even blocks financial transactions for him. Thus, he accelerates the trial. Politician's appeal confirms one more time that mention in the Register of Politically Exposed Persons complicates money laundering", – AntAC executive director Daria Kaleniuk explains the essence of work of the anticorruption instrument.
AntAC's lawyers believe that Martynenko does not have any reason to be offended to his own dossier, published in the Register of Politically Exposed Persons. Information collected there is either confirmed by documents, namely court decisions or excerpts from the state registers, or is already publicly known from numerous journalists' investigations and his own comments. Moreover, his case is already being heard in court.
"If the court satisfies such appeal, then it would mean that, for example, journalists who cover particular criminal trial regarding Mr. Martynenko (or any other), will also become potential "targets" for such Politically Exposed Persons. They could also be required to remove the name of such a person from publications", – AntAC's lawyer Oleksiy Boyko explains danger of the process.

Right now, is the perfect time to get yourself looking and feeling great. If your hair has always been a problem for you, try nourishing it from the inside out with Viviscal Extra Strength. It's an easy and effective way to give you gorgeous hair this summer.
Viviscal Extra Strength is a stronger version than the original formula Viviscal, that the brand is known is for. It's the same type of dietary supplement as the original which is formulated with an active ingredient called AminoMar (a marine complex), but it actually contains fifty-percent more of that active ingredient. It is formulated to nourish and bulk up thinning hair, and promote new growth during the Anagen phase of the growth cycle, which is the active growth phase for hair.
It is completely drug-free and contains ingredients like Horsetail extract which is an organic form of silica that can increase the strength of hair and revitalize it from within. It also contains vitamin C derived from the Acerola Cherry which is one of the richest sources of vitamin C available. It is recommended that Viviscal Extra Strength be taken twice each day, for a minimum of three to six months before you see the full scope of results. After that, it is recommended to take Viviscal Extra Strength once or twice each day for maintenance.
My thoughts…
After taking Viviscal for four weeks, I can honestly say it is the easiest "hair treatment" I have ever had the pleasure of testing. One pill in the morning and one at night, makes it easy to keep track of and easy to stay consistent.
Although I haven't been taking it yet for the recommended "minimum" time, I am definitely seeing results. My hair has always been a problem for me as it has just about always been colored-treated and heat-styled. It's frizzy, thin, and generally speaking, it's just a nightmare. And, I can't get away from the heat-styling and color-treating because that is what I do with my hair to get it looking good.
Since, I started taking the Viviscal Extra Strength pills I've definitely noticed that I don't have as much breakage or fall-out when I brush or style my hair. I've also seen a difference in the overall thickness of my hair (maybe, since not as much is falling out) and it seems like it's healthier or more moisturized.
After seeing what I've seen the first four weeks, I'm really excited to see how my hair is after the recommended three to six months of treatment. I'll definitely continue to take it and will be updating everyone on my results at the PS Beauty Blog.
Where to buy
Viviscal Extra Strength is available for $49.99 at www.viviscal.com and at drugstores nationwide.

So how did you do?!
I thought the last one was an artist, but didn't pick the others!!
I got it right! Not that I think the artists are any better.
Oh, btw, there is something for you over at my blog.
I got about half right! Elephants paint too!
Damn! I was 100% right. I almost picked #5 for Artist too, but chose against it.
Hmmm... still don't understand how those slabs of paint can be considered art though... I kinda wish I had been 100% wrong - just to prove my point ;)
I know enough to know not even to try ;) lol
got em!
I picked 2 & 5 Ape, the others artist. #1 was my favorite
It's hilarious that there's even a question about this!
My brother and a close childhood friend of mine are both painters, and both hate, hate, hate abstract art. You can get them onto a rant about how today's art scene makes it impossible for someone who wants to say something real and make it look attractive to make money, if you have a couple weeks to listen. I sympathize with them.
Hello - interesting post for sure. I wanted to tell you too - in case no one else has, or no one has contacted you as yet, but David McMahon over at Authorblog would like for you to e-mail him so he would have your e-mail address. He wants to write to you pertaining to a project he is setting up for his blog, so please drop him a note. OKAY?
Got all but Number 5.
That was cool!
and thanks for all your prayers and well wishes during my difficult time.
Peace and hugs.
Oooh- I love #3!
I didn't get five at all. Interesting.
I got 4 of 6... but that isn't saying much. The apes ought to sell their work !
I love tests when I get all the answers correct! YAY! me!
Thanks, Casdok!
That is a great point! I think I like them all, but the ones by the apes are a little more my style, only b/c they look like something my children would do. :)
I'm glad that you found my blog b/c in turn I have now found yours!! :)
Have a GREAT day!!
Hugs, Jenn
PS i added you to my blog roll is that okay??;)
Damn! I thought they were all apes... xx
I should have been an artist, I'd be famous!
I guessed number 5 correctly, I didn't bother guessing about the others.
Oh, I got the first one wrong! And I wouldn't hang ANY of them in my house!
They all look ape to me.
I'm just so uncouth ... not at all cultured.
And proud of it!:D
Got them - now racking my brains to remember which artists!
Good post...
I missed two, but I do like #4
- the painting computer....
I thought I'd be a chimpion (sorry, champion) at this, but what a great presentation you've given us.
Thank you so much ....
Well, they actually all look like the same artist did them.
Thanks for visiting my blog today.
Well that showed me - there I was getting all smug thinking yeah - easy no problem . . .hah I got it mostly wrong . . .
I wonder what the artists' responses would be?!
The first one looks similar to the the mess I made on the floor while painting my bedroom the other day :)
didn't do too bad, honest!
my favourate is no 5 so that says a lot for the artisit then
Wow! that is amazing! I guessed right about no 5 being the ape! it just goes to show you though as I can just imagine all the art snobs looking at the ape pics and saying "Yes...yes, I see what the artist is trying to say here!" You def cant judge a book by its cover!
My favourite is the first one, but I figured an ape had done it because he didn't fill up all the white space! lol
I got them right. You'll have to trust me on this but the ape pictures have the same basic shape and the artist ones have representational forms that seemed somehow non ape like. Either that or I got them wrong but I have terrific chutzpah.
I've seen beauty in shit smeared on the wall ..
there's beauty everywhere yanno?
thanks for coming by my blog..
Answer: All of them.
We're all apes. Some of us are more apeish than others ;)
Thats my sons fortee!!
I was greatly saddened to have got them all.
Perhaps I need to rethink my "call-that-art?-a-monkey-could-do-better" attitude to art... xx
I love the work you do through your blog so I've included you in a blog award at www.thecanvasgrey.wordpress.com
Your blog is really awesome and C is so lucky to have a mom like you.
All the best, Debi
Oh I thought wee had to just choose one- the ape - and I chose #2 so I got one right:)
Not terribly well I'm afraid. It reminds me of the [current?] advertisements in Heathrow airport, two pictures exactly the same but with opposite responses depending upon which country you're from.
Yes I know I've spent too much time in Heathrow lately!
I guessed numbers 3, 4 and 6 correctly, but wasn't sure about the others.
I have the unpopular view, though, that humans and other primates aren't as different as we humans might like to think.
fun post. Glad you gave us the answers, though, because I couldn't get them all.
Casdok - check out my blog I gave you an award!!
Considering what's hanging in some of the finest international art museums, I think they all deserve a spot on some wall. They're certainly better than anything I could do.
I would guess that 2 and 5 are ape but I know you will say I am wrong.
Oh I have just read your answer Casdok, I got two right but missed number 1, that was a surprise that one.
Only no 6 was painted by a human.
I liked them all! Next time I shall buy art cheaply from an ape, tee hee!
#1 looks like something my son painted at school when he was 4. It was chosen for an exhibition of art by people with autism and his teacher at the time did a very convincing blurb about its artistic merits!!
I got them all correct.
I love all kinds of art.
I do like The Ape #2 &
Artist's #4 & #6 the best.
I've seen both Elephant's
and Cat's that paint, but
never Ape painting until
Some of the responses gave
me a laugh. Thanks!
Have a Blessed Happy Healthy
Fun Creative Blessed Year!!!
1,2 and 5 are ape, great post, just visiting from david mcmahon latest post - no matter how I did, I think this is great brain exercise. Thanks for sharing and let us to be involved. Anna :)
I thought the first two were painted by an ape but didn't get the other one.
Perhaps it was the gorilla in the Cadbury's advert?
i'll be darned if i knew the difference
Maybe the artists believe in evolution and are over-identifying with their "kin?"
OK, or maybe I just don't appreciate modern art.
I think the ape IS an artist!
(Or the artist is an ape???)
some small corrections, precisions :)
Then the human will fuck up said animal's timing by giving the animal some other timing variation and giving said animal FOOD by moving some other kind of animal species #2 in the territory of species #1. While species #2 would NOT have gone into species #1's territory where it not of humans!!!! OR species #2 would have knocked on the door before!!!
THUS SPECY #2 WOULD HAVE RESPECTED SPECY #1 timing!!!!!!
But humans say fuck that and go there. Specy #1 being invaded by *Humanimal* specy #2 thus kill rape and eat. This is all human based. Humanity has a total monopoly on earth except maybe in africa and in the air and sea and on the moon and elsewhere. But every place there are zombies and roads criss crossing the territory with cars running over free walking animals, humans rule. That's about 0.000000000001% of the universe or less. Meaning humans really suck in those place. However i have not yet found how to go to the moon and get rid of all those animals. :(((
This was fun. I knew 3 and 6 were artists because, if they're painted by who I think they're painted by, I recognize the style. Didn't get #4 though. I also get a kick out of the comments. People who haven't got a clue about art of any kind feel they must weigh in with their valuable opinions. I wonder if they have a strong opinion about, say, Russian or nuclear physics, too? e.g. "I don't understand the appeal of Sri Lankan jazz, so it must be bogus." :)
