This Korean BB cream is good enough for me. The color does not look too "weird". The texture is smooth enough. It also contains anti-aging ingredients that is supposed to be good for my skin.

This is the fourth bb cream I've tried and I'm loving it! Unlike the others it comes in a conventional squeeze tube, which makes it super easy to control the amount of product you want to use. I find the formula very comparable to Skin79 Pink. It's very smooth, creamy and super blendable - no caking nor accentuating of fine lines. The shade is very similar - a light neutral which does not oxidize on me and matches my skintone perfectly. The coverage is light for a BB cream and more characteristic of a TM, but it looks very natural on my skin, albeit slightly dewy. I'd say its a great daytime product, but perhaps too sheer for night. Sadly, it clogs my pores and breaks me out. Will not buy again.

I obtained a sample sachet of this product, which lasted about 5 uses when applied minimally (and as intended). I can't say how my skin fares with this product in the long run as far as whitening and anti-aging properties as I didn't notice any during the 5 days of usage I had. The product's immediate properties were decent, however.
This BB cream comes in only a single shade that should suit light to light-medium skin tones. Gold Caviar's single shade is a little darker and more gray-toned than BRTC's Jasmine Water BB cream, almost the same shade as MISSHA'S M Perfect Cover BB cream in No.23. It is also similar in consistency to the MISSHA BB cream (possibly a tad bit thicker), and is quite moisturizing. I thought that Gold Caviar would have a different finish than Jasmine Water, but both of these BRTC BB creams have dewy finishes that are best for dry skin in need of a luminous finish. The dewiness can be matted with powder.
The coverage is buildable to medium, but I recommend applying sparingly and layering additional coverage on as needed as applying too much product causes it to oxidize too slowly or not at all, which causes the skin to look gray and ghostly. The gray cast should oxidize to better match the skin tone within 5 minutes. The BB cream's staying power is quite durable, at 5 hours without powder and 8+ hours with powder. This BB cream does not have great oil control though, as I've had to blot once or twice each time I wore it, as soon as the 3rd hour.
While I enjoyed this BB cream more than the Jasmine Water BB cream for its better coverage and durability, I was not so pleased with its gray cast (Jasmine Water has a yellow undertone and no strong gray cast, but is best for fair skin tones and too pale for fair-medium skin tones).
It also takes a while to oxidize; I usually like BB creams because it streamlines my makeup routine so that I'm out the door faster. But even with minimal application of this BB cream (which by the way isn't all that heavy) I felt it was taking too long to wait and ensure that it oxidizes before blushing and bronzing my face without over-flushing the color.
Again, great product if you have dry skin and want a luminous finish, and have the patience to work with this product. I just personally wasn't down to add 5 more minutes to my routine to wait on this BB cream to match me and powder down the shine. I'm always rushing as it is, and it was simpler to just apply a regular sunscreen and a truer-color foundation to my face instead. And sensitive skin types: stay away! This has a very strong powdery fragrance.

My favorite BB cream thus far. The color is nearly a dead-on color match for my skin, and a pea-sized drop covers my entire face. I don't blend, I don't rub, I don't brush it onto my face. I dot the amount I have over my chin, cheeks, forehead and nose, and then sweep the dots across the face. It means I don't rub it all off by trying to blend it in, and it achieves great opacity. The initial result is incredibly shiny, but I always top my bb creams with a powder, so it is not a concern for me. I love that with a powder on, this still looks incredibly natural on the skin, and does not look like it's sitting "on top" of the skin, as some foundations and powders are apt to do. I am very happy with this purchase. I don't feel like there were any skincare benefits here, whitening, clarifying or otherwise, but I do appreciate the SPF, and given that I apply a relatively thick layer, feel confident that the promised amount of SPF is probably on my face since the proportions are right.
For reference, I am a light neutral skintone, neither pink nor yellow undertoned, but I would say this has more pink undertones than yellow, but it is not a true neutral.

This is the second BB cream purchase I have made based on reviews I have read and seen on YouTube. This is a very nice BB cream but I will not be repurchasing it. Sadly it doesn�t quite match my skin tone, though with a light hand and some blending down my neck I am able to pull off this cream. I really wanted to like this BB cream more than I did.
-gives fair to medium coverage that is buildable
-great for sensitive skin (some BB`s contain Mineral Oil this one is free of that product)
-Moisturizing (great for normal to dry skin)
-very easy application; beautiful texture
-I like the packaging it is a simple tube, you can get everything out of it unlike pumps or built in wands...they are just wasteful when half your product remains stuck in the packaging where you can't use it
-Oxidizes to a darker shade that is slightly more pink than when it comes out of the tube
-feels a like you are wearing makeup, similar to the feeling of Sephora and Laura Mercier tinted moisturizers
-has a smell similar to that of an unscented tinted moisturizer
-many BB creams have priming qualities, this one works ok as a primer (if you have oily skin or if any part of your face is oily I wouldn�t solely rely on only this to keep everything you place on top; eye shadows for example)
Overall if you are getting serious into BB creams this is one you should consider trying. It will cost you around $40 ($28 originally) for the full sided product with shipping in Canada. I do really think that BRTC should be making samplers or travel sized containers for those looking to try without committing to the full sized product. I am an NW20 according to MAC and I feel like this BB cream would be best suited for an NC20-25 complexion. I have very dry skin, and although this cream is moisturizing, it isn�t enough in some places on my face (during the Canadian Prairie Winters) I do think this cream would be good for someone with dry to normal skin. In the end I won�t be repurchasing this product again, not because it was bad (in fact it is very nice) but because it is the wrong colour, and I have used other BB creams I have liked more.

Would not buy this again because it's a shade or two too dark for me.
It has good coverage, stays on over several hours, and is easy to apply. I have pretty dry skin though, so if I use the BB Cream on it's own without moisturizer underneath, it will dry out my skin. If I use moisturizer underneath, then my skin won't dry out...however I do get oily in the T-zone after a couple hours. I have sensitive skin that breaks out if I wear foundation for over 6-7 hrs so the same goes for this product: I do break out a little if I wear it too long. And for those who want their acne to lighten up, I did notice that in the first few weeks I started using this, my acne scars seemed to be lighter. Overall it's a decent product, but because of my own skin type, it's not a good product for me.

I have combination/dehydrated/oily skin. This product is hydrating but a bit too thick and oily for me. It has meduim coverage and does brighten up my skin after i put it on (the shade is a bit lighter than my natual light Asian skin tone). If I don't put powder on top of it my face will look shiny in 30 minutes. In summer time I don't like to use too many products on my face and I am looking for a one-step product that's light, non-greasy, hydrating, with medium coverage and high sun protection. This BB cream only meets half of my requirements. I bought it based on many good reviews and hoped it works like a "magic cream" as what's advertised, honestly this's like a tinted moisturizer and I don't see "magic" in it.

When I first started using this I wasn't too sure I was going to like it. I'm a MAC NC25-35 depending on if it's summer or winter. I originally found that this was too light. Then I was watching BentleyBlonde on YouTube and she suggested that you use bronzer over top to get it to match. This was the magic trick to beautiful bronzed looking skin. I used NYC's bronzer in Sunny with a EcoTools bronzer brush. Absolutely amazing! This is now back in rotation and I will use both tubes that I purchased. I will definitely repurchase this and I also want to try Missha BB Cream Perfect Cover in #23.

I've tried Missha perfect cover #23, Lioele Tiple the Solution and Skin 79 gold + pink bb creams but I find the BRTC gold cavier works best for me.
It gives medium coverage so if you have very dark acne scars you will need a concealer. This cream gives my skin a slight dewy and smooth look. The cream is not too thick and is super easy to blend. The colour isn't too gray either unlike the Missha perfect cover bb cream.
Before applying the cream appears a little darker than my skin but after it's all blended in and the powder is applied to set it everything looks perfectly fine. Most people can't tell I'm wearing makeup sometimes since the look it gives is so natural.

BRTC Gold Caviar is a tad too tan for my winter skin and a tad too rich/oily for my summer skin. I would say it is my second favourite after Dr.Jart+ Premium, and I will use my first and only tube but will not repurchase. It's a decent product well worth its price on eBay or Sasa but just not for me. I believe someone with medium skintone and drier skin will like it alot. Sadly, not me. Overall, it definitely deserves 4 stars
Update 19/10/2012: tried it again with less oily skin and in cooler weater. Will rate it 5/5, even despite my only gripe: it gets completely transparent by noontime. Have to reapply for coverage. Otherwise very comfy and enjoyable. Already repurchased
Update 03/01/2013: imagine my surprise when an October repurchase from Sasa turned out a completely different product! A much better version than the one I reviewed. All my complaints were duly addressed: the color became much lighter and neutral (instead of dark tan with dull greyish pink undertone), there is now oil control, well, at least the product is less rich upon application. The coverage is medium at most but of those SPF50 BBs this one is (or remains) a thumbs up leader. The new version is now marked with Pore something Complex instead of Perfect Protection System and is very difficult to distinguish from the old one unless you have a true close up photo. Therefore all previous reviews are now totally irrelevant to this new product

While I was in the hospital, Robert Bork died. Perfect timing. I have made no secret of my dislike of Bork. I consider the nation to have dodged a huge bullet when he was kept off the Supreme Court in 1987. He would have been Clarence Thomas to the third power, the most dangerous and malevolent justice in the history of the court that I admire so much.
When Andrew Sullivan calls the campaign against his nomination to the court "a smear campaign of almost unprecedented ferocity," that is vastly overstated. Yes, there was demagoguery employed against him, as there always is in such battles (to be fair, his nomination did make such tactics the norm rather than the exception). But the real dangers of a Bork on the court would hardly have been any less destructive than his detractors argued, even if it was in different ways. And the huge record of deranged writings he has put out since being voted down by the Senate, which Sullivan admits is "embittered, angry, bigoted in many ways, and hostile to modern American culture and life," only proves that to be true.
An alleged "originalist," Bork would have read entire sections of the Constitution out of existence. He argued, for example, that the First Amendment did not protect anything but explicitly political speech, leaving artistic, scientific or literary speech unprotected. The 9th Amendment was a mere "ink blot" to be ignored, the concept of unenumerated rights shoved down the rabbit hole forever. It may be the single luckiest nomination that didn't happen in the history of this country.

This is a thin armwarmer that's better employed as an extra layer at the start of a warmer ride than any kind of winter protection.
They're nicely made from a tightly woven Lycra, the seams are flatlocked and there's a minimal reflective logo at the wrist. The top gripper is snug without being restrictive.
When you first put they actually make your arms feel colder, which is weird - maybe it's because they don't have a roubaix inner layer. Once you're riding and warmed up they do improve, but they're thin and not windproof so the benefit isn't as pronounced as you'll get with some armwarmers. They're light though, so easy to stash in a jersey pocket.
All in all, there's better options out there and the Ozons don't really stand out. They're fine for Summer or as an extra layer of protection down the track, but they're not thick enough to cope with year-round use.

My Goal for 2009
YH: First of all, I'd like to improve my Japanese-speaking ability. Also, I'd like to grow both emotionally and internally. In my private time I'd like to go to Las Vegas! I went before for work, but shooting while looking at the Grand Canyon and the wonderful scenery is something that really remains in my memories!
My Recent Favourite Item
YH: A hat I got from someone, by a brand called "Clover". When I want to look cool I use it to hide one of my eyes a little, and when I want to look cute and fashionable I push the hat to the back of my head and put on glasses. This is something I was taught by a famous fashion editor!
This Is What's Cool About Yunho!
YC: I think the part of him that properly protects his friends is really cool. I love the Yunho that treasures "a man's friendship".
JJ: He's manly! The bigness of all of Yunho's gestures and actions, that kind of thing is really cool. When he sings and when he dances, too.
JS: He's really professional and someone who will do his best and work hard for absolutely anything. I think that's wonderful.
CM: He's manly. He's a person who treasures friendship.
I Want Yunho To Stop Doing This!
YC: Lately it seems like he's been having various problems, and when he's off from work he's not with the members, but is constantly together with his friends. It makes me feel just a little lonely... I've been close to Yunho since the very beginning so I don't take it to heart, but let's contact each other a bit more. Whether it's time to have a meal or time to just talk, let's make more and more of them!
JJ: Sometimes his actions are too big, and when he talks or dances, there are times when he hits the people next to him (laughs)! Yunho totally doesn't notice. I have also been hit by him, a lot of times.
JS: The amount of things he forgets is outrageously huge~! His wallet, cellphone...there's just all sorts of stuff he quickly loses or forgets. The members worry at those times. It's fine since he always finds his things, but it's that kind of, there are so many things he forgets and loses that it's like if he loses everything he might be left with nothing.
CM: It would be good if he tidied up our room just a bit more! It's not just our room, he has this habit of messing things up anywhere he goes~
To Yunho: I Wasn't Able To Say It Before, But I Confess...
YC: Yunho invited me to have a meal with him and his friend who is a Korean entertainer. I promised I would go too, but when I got home I was really tired. I came to feel, "I'm not really in the mood..." and called him to turn him down. I'm sorry for not keeping my promise that time!
JJ: Don't talk on the phone in my bedroom! Yunho doesn't talk on the phone in his own room, he talks while going back and forth, here and there, between the other members' bedrooms and the living room and stuff. Whatever it is, in my bedroom, just don't talk on the phone there!!!!
JS: I know very well that being in the leader's position is really difficult, but...until now and in the future too, you've really done your best and will keep doing your best for Tohoshinki. I am grateful.
CM: I might look like the type of person who doesn't like tidying up, but I am extremely particular about cleanliness! Unexpectedly!! UNEXPECTEDLY!! Yunho scolds me too much for being like that. But I....can't say this to Yunho.
My Goal for 2009
CM: Since I spent 2008 going back and forth between Korea and other countries, this year I want to study properly again, and get a little better at Japanese. I want to work hard on my singing and dancing too. In my private life, I'd like to make this a year in which I'm able to grow a bit more for myself. I want to learn the guitar too!
My Recent Favourite Item
CM: A book called "The Secret". It contains methods for how to increase your motivation in order to succeed. This is a book that's always placed beside my bed. I've been reading books a lot lately, so I've come to carry this with me. If I work hard I've been able to finish one book a day before!
This Is What's Cool About Changmin!
YH: Personally, I think Changmin is coolest when he's swimming. He has really beautiful form.
YC: Changmin is a man of little words. The part of him that doesn't talk to people based on his feelings or things he thinks of in that particular moment, but carefully listens to what the members and staff members have to say, and properly thinks them over before speaking, is cool.
JJ: He's tallll, he's youngggg, he's smart and he's good at Japanese. His ears tooooo~, his eyes toooo~, his mouth toooooo~... (CM: DON'T TOUCH ME~!) He's nothing but things to be praised for, isn't he!
JS: Changmin is really diligent. It feels like he's more of an adult than I am. He's a person of good manners.
I Want Changmin To Stop Doing This!
YH: He gets scared if there are things that don't go well. He gets depressed. Even if we encourage him he doesn't listen to us at all. He'll go up to the rooftop by himself.
YC: It's a little like, I don't really know what he's thinking about. But he changed for the better from last year onwards. I think it's cool how he carefully thinks about things by himself, but if we could talk about all sorts of things.....This is just my hope though, he's fine the way he is right now!
JJ: He's a little dirty. He messes up the living room. (CM: I tidy up in Japan!) Also, at times Changmin gets really scary. Like the devil (laughs). Even if I point that out about him, he'll definitely never admit it! But he's normally gentle.
JS: He makes fun of me too much!! And then he laughs at it, it's annoying. It's like he's in love with me. That makes me happy but it's also troublesome, doing nothing but being made fun of!!
To Changmin: I Wasn't Able To Say It Before, But I Confess...
YH: I'm the leader, and Changmin is the youngest. But there are some parts about us that are similar. I am really grateful that he's always watching over his selfish older brothers. To be honest. But I can't say that because I'm the older brother. I'm going to use PINKY as the opportunity to say this. Thank you, and I love you!
YC: There have been a lot of times where I've been having troubles and Changmin happens to contact me by coincidence. I think it's almost like my feelings are expressed to him even if I don't say anything. That kind of thing becomes a great source of energy for me.
JJ: This time during this interview, the real Changmin has been exposed......I'd like to apologize for that. Sorry!
JS: Even though he's the youngest, he really always brightly does his best in the midst of his older brothers. There have been times when I've thought, "How cute.." and "He's wonderful."
My Goal for 2009
JJ: I want my body and age to stay this way.....and to only become more of an adult mentally. I don't want to gain any more years. I want to keep living like this. Work-wise, I want to become even busier this year!! Manager-san, please give us even more work!! Please!!!
My Recent Favourite Item
JJ: This is used to tune notes. When you strike it, it gives the sound of the note "la". When we are singing chorus, we strike this and coordinate our notes. When I saw the Gospellers carrying this around and said "I should carry one around too...", they gave it to me as a present. Out of the Tohoshinki members, I am the only one who has this.
This Is What's Cool About Jaejoong!
YH: He's cool when he calms down and talks to me. When he speaks seriously I realize that he really has all kinds of thoughts.
YC: He's so honest that he's easily fooled. There's a part of him that immediately trusts people. But I like that about him. He has passion.
JS: He really thinks about us. It's expressed in everything from his words to his actions. His consideration for others is also cool.
CM: He seems cold from his appearance. But on the inside, he's warmer than any of the members. That's something that I might have to learn from him.
I Want Jaejoong To Stop Doing This!
YH: His jokes are uncool. They're really funny but he tells them at the wrong times! Sometimes he ends up bothering the members too!
YC: Jaejoong is really busy right now because he's doing his music activities as well as his drama. So when he gets even a little time off, he goes wild. I'm worried about Jaejoong's health. I understand how he feels, but please pay a little attention to your body!
JS: Soooometimes, I come to not understand Jaejoong (laughs). Jaejoong's moods are like a rugby ball, you don't know where they're going to fly. We've had interesting times because of that, so it's not a bad thing. But there are also times where it's a bother to us.
CM: He comes into the house still wearing his shoes~ and this is (whispers) the same as Yunho too..........(sighs). YOU MUST TAKE OFF YOUR SHOES.
To Jaejoong: I Wasn't Able To Say It Before, But I Confess...
YH: Lately Jaejoong has been having other work and is really busy. That may be so, but he's been doing his work as Tohoshinki with all his heart, not falling sick, and doing it all safely. Thank you.
YC: Jaejoong and a friend and I, the three of us, were having a meal at a bar in Korea. In Korea we don't really split the cost, we take turns to pay. That day it was my turn to pay, but I forgot my wallet.....and so Jaejoong paid for us. It was soju so it shouldn't have been that expensive. I didn't do it on purpose!
JS: I think that because Jaejoong is here, Tohoshinki has gotten a lot better image-wise and singing-wise. Of course, we can't do it without all the members....but I am especially grateful to Jaejoong for that aspect of his.
CM: There are times I observe Jaejoong for no reason. He tells me, "ENOUGH! DON'T LOOK AT ME!!", but I want to see more of Jaejoong's instinctive behaviour!! (JJ: He peeks at me from between the cracks in the door!) I am interested in everything about Jaejoong. Yes.

YC: If I have the time, I think I'd like to go on a trip overseas with my mother and younger brother. To Europe or like, various other places. Anywhere is fine! My goal work-wise is to do my best at composing music that is good enough to be able to offered to other artists. I also want to practice singing more and get better at it!
My Recent Favourite Item
YC: Francfranc candles. Lately I haven't had much room for comfort both time-wise and mentally, so I haven't been able to sleep well. Since I've got various things I'm worried about..... So I light up a lot of this type of candle and recharge. I buy them quite a lot in Korea too, and I've got lots of other different ones! They're unexpectedly expensive, aren't they...(T/N: I did some research and depending on which Francfranc candles he buys, they could cost him anywhere from 8USD to 40USD each D8)
This Is What's Cool About Yoochun!
YH: His figure when he composes music and plays the piano is cool. Since he really puts his emotions into them, those are the times his truest figure shows.
JJ: His figure when he gives his all and plays music is truly cool. And it feels like he lives life his own way the most. It's amazing how everything to him is done "my own way", but he never causes trouble to the people around him.
JS: He's good at creating an atmosphere that will suit that particular situation, bringing everyone together, and taking leadership. The aspect of him that definitely achieves whatever he thinks, "Let's do this" about is also amazing. He's a man of actions rather than words.
CM: He's a deep-thinking person. He has a deep (profound) heart. He has a different kind of manliness from Yunho's.
I Want Yoochun To Stop Doing This!
YH: Asking me to have supper with him. You know how men have a sense of honour, or like, deep emotion? Yoochun says it really well. He says, "If it was me, and you asked me, I'd eat with you. How about you, Yunho?" When he does that I get gradually weaker and weaker....and I end up saying, "Let's go just for today!"
JJ: He always sleeps with the fan on. It seems like he likes the cold, so even in winter he doesn't warm up his room! Yoochun is the only one who's constantly saying, "It's hot it's hot!" But we're cold.
JS: His moods change easily. When he's feeling down, everyone also takes this into consideration (laughs). When Yoochun is feeling dark, everyone becomes dark. That kind of aura he has is amazing. Today's Yoochun? He's seriously high, isn't he!
CM: He always asks me to join him when he's having supper. HAVEN'T YOU GOTTEN EVEN ME FAT ALREADY?! (T/N: He means Chun has gone through all the members and has now even managed to fatten Min 8D)In the middle of the night he goes, "Let's go to the ramen shop!" or whatever, and in the house we've got instant ramen and yakisoba and so on, nothing but things that you end up seriously wanting to eat. (angry) He says, "It's lonely to eat alone!"!!!!!
To Yoochun: I Wasn't Able To Say It Before, But I Confess...
YH: Since Yoochun left his cellphone to charge and went out, I disconnected his charger and put in my phone for about thirty minutes. It was a complete crime that no one knew about.
JJ: I've arbitrarily eaten Yoochun's presents. Till now I've done it not once, but countless times. Food~, or like health drinks~..........I always think I'll never get caught....I'm sorry!!
JS: He always gives the most response to even my unfunny jokes! Thank you.
CM: Up till now I've borrowed two books from Yoochun....and made them my own........I'm sorry. (JJ: Isn't that being a thief?!) But I REALLY wanted to read those two books!!!!!!!
My Goal for 2009
JS: In 2009 I really want to do my best and hold an independent Tohoshinki concert standing on the stage of Tokyo Dome. In my private life, I want to go on a trip. The destination can be anywhere! Whether it's within the country or overseas.... Since I think I'll be able to get that kind of time. And I want to energetically give everything my all!
My Recent Favourite Item
JS: BVLGARI's perfume "WEEKEND FOR MEN". I tried out lots of different perfumes and really like this one. I have lots of perfumes, but right now this is the one I like the most, so it's always in my bag without fail. It'd be bad if it broke, so I put it properly into a box and carry it around with me!
This Is What's Cool About Junsu!
YH: He's cool when he sings. It's like he's not Junsu.
YC: He's pure. I think he's a guy that suits that word 100%, and he always elevates the members' moods. I think that aspect of his, is a really great one.
JJ: The Junsu that stands on stage is the coolest. The singing, dancing Junsu is the best!
CM: I think he's the funniest thing in the world! I worship him! My mood really elevates just by watching him.
I Want Junsu To Stop Doing This!
YH: If he goes into his own room he plays games forever and doesn't come out. He might even be a pro gamer. His presence disappears to the point where we start to wonder whether he's really just left the house. If all of you were with us for a day you'd be shocked too.
YC: Junsu doesn't drink alcohol and he doesn't smoke cigarettes. I like alcohol. I love the atmosphere of a place with liquor ♥ But Junsu goes home and does nothing but play games. I'd like him to go out once in a while and meet his friends.
JJ: He's annoying (immediate reply). And, I want him to say what he wants to say properly till the very end. He changes the topic in the middle of what he's saying and is all over the place. I always have no idea what his conclusion is.
CM: He's too bright......IT'S ANNOYING! His voice is so loud!!!
To Junsu: I Wasn't Able To Say It Before, But I Confess...
YH: I have a hobby of collecting coins. I'd massage Junsu and say, "Okay, 300 yen ple~ase," in a charming way, and Junsu would point to a table and say, "Take 300 yen from that small change there." When I went there was 400 yen there, so I took all of it. It was a complete crime.
YC: Since we're both the same age and are friends, even though we're joking around there are times I say too much and am too harsh on him, and I really regret it later on. I'm really sorry for that. Thank you for always being so kind to me.
JJ: When the other members are being interviewed, or when it's the other members' turns to talk, shut up (laughs). Tohoshinki is a five-member group, so we have a sort of order for each person to receive questions and answer them, right? But he just arbitrarily talks. For example even when it's something Changmin is being questioned about, Junsu will go, "Ah~~, Changmin right~" and answer everything. When it's time for questions for the other members, shut up!
CM: The joy of my life, is the discovery of Junsu's funniness! There was one day where he told this to me. He said, "That's enough so stop looking at my face!" It seems he receives stress just by my looking at him.

That. Was. Awesome.
Well for me. I loved that episode. Despite not having any action really, it was super cool.
I'm really loving the villains in this arc, since they seem truly evil to me.
Looks like we know what Cobra wants with Kinana now.
Sad Levy didn't get put in a team, but I'm sure she'll get her moment later. Romeo, Kinana, Mira, Lisanna, and Cana are still at the guild.
I can't express how amazing it'll be to see Juvia paired up with Gajeel again.

Yet another end of the world arc.
Oracion Seis up to their old "let's destroy the world" tricks.
Find the clock and take it back Fairy Tail mission was predictable.
So they're destroying churches now, interesting.
Kinana's behavior was really weird. She's acting like a prophet of sorts.
Even Zentopians are having issues with Oracion Seis.
Those guys seem to be messing up everyone plans.
Will Neville, finally a name that could help Fairy Tail's quest.
They sure divided into interesting pairs and groups. Hope it'll help.

Gatman as in Batman? Kubrick as in Stanley Kubrick? Some kind of subtle homage?
Anyway, looks like Erigor is at least controlled. I was beginning to think that OS was being controlled or manipulated as well, but that might not be the case. At the least, they are getting power from somewhere, and that might have altered them some. Didn't think they'd try to end the world without some influence exerting their effect on them.
Wonder why Lucy doesn't summon that cross spirit to get info on Neville, since he was a Stellar Spirit mage?
Gildarts hitting on Laki? Heh.
Interesting teamups; looks like they are breaking the obvious molds just to be different. With the two old guys, Romeo, and Team Shadow Gear left at the guild, does that mean they will be attacked, too?
Anyway, looks like we finally get back to some action next ep.

Ok so here's the problem, the magical council dudes, what's with sending magical-less mooks to defend places against powerful magical mages?
Where's the logic in that, even with numbers they can't do squat against the magic, I would think that would be an obvious thing.
I guess we could put it down to I dunno, careless-ness from the studio but putting some mages in with the council dudes would have given the idea that they have powers in dealing with mages even if they end up being weak.
Careful world building is something I like and I feel this is dropping the ball but whatever, it's not like it;s the end of the world......oh wait
Well at least we got some different team ups even if Natsu and Lucy are together again but I've got no real probs with that.
Just kinda wish Mira-chan was involved, personally would love to see a Mira/Erza team

Episode 142: Battle Discord
That was a really hilarious episode. So many jokes and things here and there. And i think like episode 130, it went well with the action.
The scene at the church with Gajeel and Juvia was great, but i know i may not sleep well after it. This arc keeps getting creepier and creepier.

I must admit, 'Mest' has redeemed himself in my eyes. Despite him still being hung up on Wendy apparently (just a taaad~ creepy but manageable), he just seems cooler being a drinking brawler.
The battles didn't excite me this time around - I'll wait until later for those. As for the jokes...they are great. I laugh/snorted/facepalmed at Gildartz ripping one though.

Anyway, I found this episode fairly good. Natsu and Elfman aren't used to working together, so their lack of teamwork caused problems. I almost thought they argued too much and got in each other's way too much, though.
However, very nice inclusion of Mest, and now I can begin to see how he he'll fit into the manga. Gildartz and Laki were amusing, heh.
Looking forward to more action next ep!

Mest turned into a drunk. Didn't expect that from him.
Natsu's team vs one of the Oracion Seis.
Exceed team vs Sammy. At least they were getting along.
Using Aquarius backfired, but that tends to happen a lot in her case.
Poor Gajeel stuck with lovey-dovey Juvia... ^^"
Wendy's team vs Grimm Reaper.
That was partly a pretty LOL fight.

Getting tired of Jackpot...Aquarius doesn't help make me feel any better either. Bixlow&Wendy vs Eligor was much more fun, cow storm summoned by a bald guy with memory issues! I wonder if he will be of any use if they break his scythe though, since he seems to need it for his storm calling.
Everything else is progressing pretty well imo, looking forward to the rest of it.

The American Farm Bureau Federation on Monday sent a letter to Agriculture Committee members commending them for moving forward with its draft 2012 farm bill.
According to AFBF President Bob Stallman, Farm Bureau places high priority on several elements in the House version, but there is room for improvement.
Stallman praised the committee's decision to stand firm on limiting the reductions in savings to $14 billion in the commodity title and to $6 billion in the conservation title, as well as protecting and strengthening the federal crop insurance program without reducing its funding.
But, said Stallman, "While the draft legislation addresses many of Farm Bureau's policy priorities, it is our hope there will be additional opportunities to make adjustments and refinements to improve this legislation."
Some of the areas Farm Bureau believes would benefit from additional work include:
• Improving equity across all commodities. The variety of program options continues to raise concerns that some programs will cause planting decisions to be based on farm program benefits that accrue more beneficially to a particular crop;
• Addressing the net effect of the Revenue Loss Coverage (RLC) Eligible Acres provisions to ensure a true "planted acres" approach and avoid recreating "base acres" issues that raise equity and planting distortion concerns;
• Re-instituting the payment limitations and Adjusted Gross Income provisions of current law; and
• Making payments from the RLC program in a timely manner, rather than one year after the loss, and simplifying the base acre calculation requirements.
"Fundamentally, Farm Bureau continues to support a single program option for the commodity title that extends to all crops," continued Stallman.
"We believe the safety net should be comprised of a strong crop insurance program, with continuation of the marketing loan program and a catastrophic revenue loss program based on county level losses for each crop."
Stallman also urged continuation of the following: maintaining the current marketing loan program; rejecting any provision linking conservation compliance with crop insurance; mandating that the Risk Management Agency develop a revenue insurance program that meets the needs of peanut producers by 2013; eliminating the dairy price support program and the Milk Income Loss Contract program, using the funds associated with those programs to offer a voluntary gross margin insurance program for dairy producers; and maintaining the current sugar program.

Sheriff Walt McNeil
Walter A. McNeil was elected Sheriff of Leon County in November 2016. In his distinguished 35-year career as a public servant, Sheriff McNeil has led the fight against crime in Tallahassee, has been tapped to lead two state agencies under former Gov. Charlie Crist, and has advised the Obama White House, and other governments around the globe, on law enforcement strategies and tactics.
For 10 years at the helm of the Tallahassee Police Department, then Chief McNeil was recognized for his progressive voice and his effective response to citizen concerns. His community policing efforts to control gangs, drugs and juvenile crime earned him numerous honors, including the Tallahassee NAACP Humanitarian Award, Public Sector Business Person of the Year and the United States DEA Award.
At the same time, he's been a good neighbor - giving his time and talents to organizations that make a difference in our lives. He has chaired the Heart Walk for the county chapter of the American Heart Association, been honorary co-chair of Leon's March of Dimes Walk America campaign, and served on the boards of the local Boys and Girls Town, Chamber of Commerce and Refuge House. The Sheriff and his family are active members of New Mount Zion AME Church.
Far beyond Tallahassee, Sheriff McNeil's experience has been highly sought after by state, national and international leaders. While at the helm of two departments, he produced a record of reform in state government that achieved measurable results. During his three years as Corrections Secretary, for example, he put in place Florida's first prison reentry programs – reducing the inmate recidivism rate by nearly 5%.
A graduate of the FBI National Academy, Sheriff McNeil has been a key adviser to the Obama Administration on homeland security and police morale. In 2012 he was selected to serve on the advisory group that met with Vice President Biden to discuss gun violence.
His voice is respected around the world, as well. As a past president of the International Association of Chiefs of Police, Sheriff McNeil has traveled to foreign countries to discuss ways to combat terrorism, human trafficking, cyber crimes and other 21st century concerns that impact global security and stability.
As a leader in the law enforcement community, Sheriff McNeil has traveled extensively giving voice to issues of concern to law enforcement officers.
In 2005, he traveled to Reykjavik, Iceland where he engaged Icelandic law enforcement command staff officers in an exchange of ideas concerning best practices in Community Oriented Policing.
During the summer of 2006, Sheriff McNeil was selected by the Anti-Defamation League to serve as a member of a team of law enforcement leaders who spent a week in Israel receiving briefings on the tactics and strategies of the Israeli Military to prevent acts of terrorism.
In 2012, as President of the International Association of Chiefs of Police, Sheriff McNeil traveled to Lyon, France where he met with the Secretary General of Interpol and discussed the framework for a partnership between the International Association of Chiefs of Police and Interpol to work cooperatively to prevent acts of terrorism, human trafficking, cyber crimes, and other global policing issues.

Spoelstra paving own way with Heat
MIAMI (AP) — Pat Riley's 34th playoff victory as coach of the Miami Heat brought the franchise's first championship. If Erik Spoelstra got his 34th playoff victory in this year's NBA Finals, Miami would have another title.
That's just one of many parallels between Riley — the patriarch of the Heat sideline — and Spoelstra, his hand-picked successor.
Spoelstra has been part of the Heat organization since 1995, so there's no shortage of ideas and ideals he's taken from Riley along those years. But those who would know say Spoelstra is far from simply being a clone of the man who still watches over the Heat from the president's office.
"The game part of it, I think Spo does his own thing there," Boston coach Doc Rivers said. "But definitely, the mental part of it, just listening to how he talks and prepares a team, the Riley fingerprints are all over that part. I mean, if you play for Riley or work around Riley, he's going to be a part of you for the rest of your life. That's just how it is."
For the Heat, it seems to be working.
Four Spoelstra seasons, four winning records, four playoff appearances and now two trips to the finals, with Game 3 of this year's title series Sunday night against the Oklahoma City Thunder. His path is well-known — start in the team's video room, eventually become an assistant coach, take over as coach when Riley retired for the second time, and after two seasons on the job see Miami land LeBron James and Chris Bosh to play alongside Dwyane Wade.
Not bad for the guy who didn't think Riley knew his name when he first arrived.
"Spo has been great," said James, the NBA's reigning MVP. "I mean, he's been challenged the last two years by a lot of people, but I think he's been awesome. Two straight finals appearances, and he's put us in position to win each and every game. … We understand what we like, our dislikes, everything of that nature, but he's been great. He's going to continue to grow, and I hope I can continue to grow around him."
Spoelstra certainly has been challenged by a lot of people — his two best players included.
When James and Spoelstra bumped into one another during a game at Dallas in November 2010, it became a story line for months. When Dwyane Wade started shouting at Spoelstra during a timeout huddle against Indiana in this year's playoffs, that incident became perhaps as talked about as the outcome of the game itself.
For his part, Spoelstra shrugged both off, and quickly. By now, Wade would have expected nothing less.
"Yeah, something was made of that blow-up in Indiana, but that shows how our relationship has grown," Wade said. "We've been together a long time. You don't have those kind of moments if you haven't been together. It's just like family members, just like a brother. We have moments, but we love each other and we move on from it, we grow from it. That's the way we are. That's the way our team is."
Spoelstra has his way of handling it all. He isn't ashamed about latching on to certain words or phrases and repeating them incessantly — outside expectations are referred to as "noise," the favorite game plan is called "playing to our identity," what gets talked about behind closed doors is "our truth" and questions about why one player gets minutes over another usually elicits an answer of "the rotation is the rotation."
Somehow, he can mix being gregarious and guarded at the same time.
"It's not that I don't take other people's opinions," said Spoelstra, who took a 31-22 career playoff record into Sunday night. "But if you haven't walked in these shoes, it's tough to have the proper perspective."
There was speculation earlier in these playoffs that Spoelstra, who received a three-year contract before this season began, would be in serious trouble if Miami had been beaten by Indiana or Boston in the final two rounds of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Internally, there was no sense of Spoelstra being on the so-called hot seat. Both Riley and Heat owner Micky Arison — who rarely speak publicly about the team in-season — have raved about the job Spoelstra has done since his first season, and Arison took to Twitter earlier in these finals to point out Spoelstra is among a small group of coaches who have taken their teams to back-to-back finals appearances in the last 25 years.
"He's been more open this year, allowing some players to voice their opinion on certain situations, at practice or in a game, no matter what the magnitude of the game is," James said. "We trust him and he trusts us. At the end of the day, he has the last call because he is the head coach, but as a player you love that fact when a coach wants to hear or wants to feel what you may see out on the floor during the game or during the film session. He's been awesome."
Spoelstra doesn't bristle at the Riley comparisons. ("Noise," it would fall under in his vernacular.)
He also doesn't complain about having a Hall of Fame coach with seven championship rings on his resume around the office every day. Some would call that intimidating. Spoelstra calls it a gift.
"In terms of Pat, we talk all the time. All the time," Spoelstra said. "It's almost as if he's a member on my staff. If I'm not calling him, if I'm not bumping into him at the office, I'm texting him. Our dialogue has been very good. It's most relevant with a team like this. He's walked in my shoes before."
And both of them have walked on the same sideline, on the same stage.
The finals. Four years ago, Riley said Spoelstra was ready. Get four wins in this series, Riley will be proven right.
"Riley was Riley for a reason," Rivers said. "He gets inside of you. And you can see that with Erik. Riley's inside of him."

In 2009, the City purchased two residentially-zoned properties located at 706 and 716 McVey Avenue as a staging area for the Lake Oswego Interceptor Sewer (LOIS) project. The LOIS project was completed in the spring of 2011, and in November 2011 the City Council held a work session on the disposition of the properties and directed staff to consider options to sell the properties. On July 10, the City Council approved moving forward with the sale of the city-owned residential properties at 706 & 716 McVey Avenue. The two parcels were offered through a sealed bid auction process with a minimum reserve price of $550,000 (for both parcels), with sealed bids due in August. Council-authorized negotiations with a below-threshold bidder did not result in a transaction.

Recently I had the pleasure of receiving a full body massage which started with 15 minutes in an infrared sauna. I had no idea what this was until they put me in the box and explained a little about it. The infrared sauna is meant to gently relax the body and release toxins as you perspire. If it is used regularly it is also said to increase weight loss. I decided to look more into what it's all about and if these claims are true.
Scientists laugh off any weight loss claims saying you may lose a slight amount of water weight with the extreme heat and perspiration but this weight will come right back after moving around for a bit or even drinking a glass of water. Infrared saunas claim to be better than regular saunas because the infrared heat is used to directly penetrate the body's tissues while regular saunas give off air currents which provide indirect heat to the body. Infrared saunas are also said to be safer and healthier as traditional saunas can cultivate bacteria which can be spread from person to person, or even within yourself. The direct heat benefits the body by providing deep tissue release which is great for sore, stiff muscles and joint soreness. As with any sauna, the heat will increase your blood circulation and allow you to sweat out impurities on the surface of the skin – this can make your skin glow and give you a general all over healthier feeling.
Since the cold weather is upon us and it's that time of year when we all get sniffly – it may be worth your while to spend some time in an infrared sauna. It may be just what you need to ward off any sickness. I felt great after stepping out of it and I caught a look at myself in the mirror and saw that I was glowing – and that was even before my massage! You just have to be sure to drink lots of water afterwards to replace any water you've sweated out and are sure not to stay in too long as that can be more dangerous than beneficial. Fifteen to Twenty minutes a few times a week is optimal. I know I will be booking another appointment very soon.

Maximum Age of Entries
The number of files that have been cached in the accelerator cache.
You can increase the maximum number of accelerator cache entries by increasing the number of file cache entries as described in File Cache Entries. Note that this number will typically be smaller than the File Cache Entries number because the accelerator cache only caches information about files and not directories. If the number is significantly lower than the File Cache Entries number, you can improve the accelerator cache utilization by following the tuning information described in Acceleratable Requests and Acceleratable Responses.
The number of client requests that were eligible for processing by the accelerator cache. Only simple GET requests are processed by the accelerator cache. The accelerator cache does not process requests that explicitly disable caching, for example, requests sent when a user clicks Reload in the browser and requests that include a query string, that is, requests for URLs that include a ? character.
To maximize the number of acceleratable requests, structure your web sites to use static files when possible and avoid using query strings in requests for static files.
The number of times the response to an acceleratable request was eligible for addition to the accelerator cache.
When the server serves a static file from the file cache, the accelerator cache may be able to cache the response for faster processing on subsequent requests. To maximize performance, maximize the number of responses that can be accelerated. In the default configuration, all responses to requests for static files can be cached in the accelerator cache. The following configuration changes may prevent a response from being accelerated:
ACLs that deny read access
Additional directives in the default object of the obj.conf file, including third party plug-ins
Using <Client> or <If> in the default object of the obj.conf file
Custom access log formats
Java Servlet filters
To maximize the number of responses that can be accelerated, avoid such configurations.
The number of times the response for a request that can be accelerated was found in the accelerator cache. Web Server can also serve requests from the accelerator cache asynchronously directly from the keep-alive threads thereby bypassing the connection queue altogether. This leads to improved performance for these requests and at the same time reduces contention on the connection queue.
Higher hit ratios result in better performance. To maximize the hit ratio, see the tuning information for Acceleratable Responses.
If the cache is disabled, the rest of this section is not displayed in perdump. In the Admin Console, the File Cache Statistics section shows zeros for the values.
The cache is enabled by default. You can disable it in the Admin Console by deselecting the File Cache Enabled box on the configuration's Performance tab ⇒ Cache sub tab, under File Cache. To disable it using the command-line-interface, use wadm set-file-cache-prop and set the enabled property to false.
The number of current cache entries and the maximum number of cache entries are both displayed in perfdump. In the Admin Console, they are called the Number of Entries and the Maximum Cache Size. A single cache entry represents a single URI.
The optimal file cache size is dependent on whether you are running a 32-bit or a 64-bit server. The available address space for a 32–bit server is limited to 4GB. The max-entries for file cache is based on the amount of Java heap, the number of threads (as specified by thread-pool/max-threads), and the connection queue size. It is recommended to cache small, frequently accessed static files in the file cache and use perfdump to ensure that the file cache hit ratio is close to 100%. To achieve this, you may increase file cache size and fine tune the max-entries for optimal performance. In a 64-bit server, due to the increased availability of address space, you can cache more static content in the file cache.
You can set the maximum number of cached entries in the Admin Console in the Maximum Entries field on the configuration's Performance tab ⇒ Cache tab, under File Cache. In the command-line interface, use wadm set-file-cache-prop and set the max-entries property. The default is 1024. The range of values is 1-1048576.
The hit ratio available through perfdump gives you the number of file cache hits compared to cache lookups. Numbers approaching 100% indicate that the file cache is operating effectively, while numbers approaching 0% indicate that the file cache is not serving many requests.
To figure this number yourself using the statistics provided through the Admin Console, divide the Total Cache Hits by the sum of the Total Cache Hits and the Total Cache Misses.
This setting is not tunable.
This field displays the maximum age of a valid cache entry. The parameter controls how long cached information is used after a file has been cached. An entry older than the maximum age is replaced by a new entry for the same file.
Set the maximum age based on whether the content is updated (existing files are modified) on a regular schedule. For example, if content is updated four times a day at regular intervals, you can set the maximum age to 21600 seconds (6 hours). Otherwise, consider setting the maximum age to the longest time you are willing to serve the previous version of a content file after the file has been modified. If your web site's content changes infrequently, you might want to increase this value for improved performance.
Set the maximum age in the Admin Console in the Maximum Age field on the configuration's Performance tab ⇒ Cache tab, under File Cache. In the command-line interface, use wadm set-file-cache-prop and change the max-age property. The default value is 30 seconds. The range of values is 0.001-3600.
The optimal cache heap size depends upon how much system memory is free. A larger heap size means that the Web Server can cache more content and therefore obtain a better hit ratio. However, the heap size should not be so large that the operating system starts paging cached files.
Set the maximum heap size in the Admin Console in the Maximum Heap Space Size field on the configuration's Performance tab ⇒ Cache tab, under File Cache. In the command-line interface, use wadm set-file-cache-prop and change the max-heap-space property. The default value is 10485760 bytes. The range of values is 0-9223372036854775807. In a 32–bit Web Server, since processes have four GBs of address space for the file cache, the value should be well under four GB.
You can use the parameter nocache for the Service function send-file to specify that files in a certain directory are not cached. Make this change by editing obj.conf. For example, if you have a set of files that changes too rapidly for caching to be useful, you can put them into a directory and instruct the server not to cache files in that directory by editing obj.conf.
<Object name=default> ... NameTrans fn="pfx2dir" from="/myurl" dir="/export/mydir" name="myname" ... Service method=(GET|HEAD|POST) type=*~magnus-internal/* fn=send-file ... </Object> <Object name="myname"> Service method=(GET|HEAD) type=*~magnus-internal/* fn=send-file nocache="" </Object>
In the previous example, the server does not cache static files from /export/mydir/ when requested by the URL prefix /myurl. For more information on editing obj.conf, see Sun Java System Web Server 7.0 Update 3 Administrator's Configuration File Reference.
When file-cache/sendfile is set to true, Web Server uses the operating system sendfile call to service large static files from the file cache. The performance of serving such files from the file cache can be improved by limiting the number of bytes sent by a single sendfile call. Using a non zero value for file-cache/sendfile-size will send the file in chunks, where the chunk size is at the most the size of sendfile-size.
While serving large files, for example, movie files, consider tuning the file-cache/sendfile-size. A sendfile-size of 1MB can provide improved performance compared to the default sendfile-size of zero. You can set the sendfile-size in Admin Console by editing Sendfile Size field on the configuration's Performance tab ⇒ Cache tab, under File Cache. In the command-line interface, use wadm set-file-cache-prop command's sendfile-size property.
File Cache stores file contents in the memory. You can add an object to obj.conf to dynamically monitor and control the file cache while the server is running.
Add a NameTrans directive to the default object:
NameTrans fn="assign-name" from="/nsfc" name="nsfc"
Add an nsfc object definition:
<Object name="nsfc"> Service fn="service-nsfc-dump" </Object>
This configuration enables the file cache control and monitoring function (nsfc-dump) to be accessed through the URI /nfsc. To use a different URI, change the from parameter in the NameTrans directive.
The following is an example of the information you receive when you access the URI:
Sun Java System File Cache Status (pid 3602) The file cache is enabled. Cache resource utilization Number of cached file entries = 174968 (152 bytes each, 26595136 total bytes) Heap space used for cache = 1882632616/1882632760 bytes Mapped memory used for medium file contents = 0/1 bytes Number of cache lookup hits = 47615653/48089040 ( 99.02 %) Number of hits/misses on cached file info = 23720344/324195 Number of hits/misses on cached file content = 16247503/174985 Number of outdated cache entries deleted = 0 Number of cache entry replacements = 0 Total number of cache entries deleted = 0 Parameter settings ReplaceFiles: false ReplaceInterval: 1 milliseconds HitOrder: false CacheFileContent: true TransmitFile: false MaxAge: 3600 seconds MaxFiles: 600000 files SmallFileSizeLimit: 500000 bytes MediumFileSizeLimit: 1000001 bytes BufferSize: 8192 bytes CopyFiles: false Directory for temporary files: /tmp Hash table size: 1200007 buckets
You can include a query string when you access the URI. The following values are recognized:
?list: Lists the files in the cache.
?refresh=n: Causes the client to reload the page every n seconds.
?restart: Causes the cache to be shut down and then restarted.
?start: Starts the cache.
?stop: Shuts down the cache.
If you choose the ?list option, the file listing includes the file name, a set of flags, the current number of references to the cache entry, the size of the file, and an internal file ID value. The flags are as follows:
C: File contents are cached.
D: Cache entry is marked for delete.
I: File information including size and modification date is cached.
M: File contents are mapped into virtual memory.
O: File descriptor is cached (when TransmitFile is set to true).
P: File has associated private data and appears on shtml files.
T: Cache entry has a temporary file.
W: Cache entry is locked for write access.

Cauldron & Hive Honey Bee Rattle (1f)
Cauldron & Hive Honey Bee Rattle (1f)
i'm a bee priestess, i tend the apiary and commune with the honeybees. I've engaged in this witchcraft for many years now and currently have three hives in my lush and savage gardens.
i love these wild and free beings and honor them by creating a shamanic, witch work, mythstream, songline, dreamtime tool and talisman for your altar and practice. this goldstone clay sweetie with denim blue-ish glaze accent is about palm size as you can see in the photos. rattles are great instruments to break up stuck or imbalanced energy in the body by shaking them over the transforming areas. try it, you'll like it.
*if love strikes you, let it rattle your bones. and if it kills you, so be it. for death is always invited in the presence of beauty.* ~ r.m. drake

7 Simple Valentine's Day Centerpiece Ideas
Even if you end up eating most meals curled up on the sofa while watching tv (it's ok we're guilty of it too), there are a few times a year when a nice candle lit dinner can be a nice touch. Even if you're not big on spending hundreds of dollars on flowers and are eating leftovers or takeout, there's always room for a simple centerpiece!
More often than not, we turn to Martha Stewart for floral advice. It isn't that her team is the end all in flower design, but more so that they've been creating pieces for all sorts of budgets for so long, that we always find some sort of inspiration.
We'd like to showcase a few ideas that are sure to keep you under-budget while making any dinner, even if eaten alone, a special one.
Try just a few stems in a vase, bowl or glass to accent a few candles, or forgo the flowers all together and anchor a plate of pretty pillars with some red beans or rice. They'll make cleaning up the wax a snap and might make use of things you already own! Check out more Valentine's Day floral arrangements over at Martha Stewart.

There's a reason it looks single take
It's rendered.
Sony has posted a teaser video for its upcoming 9.4in Android tablet, the S1, and its a good 'un. Unsurprisingly, perhaps, it says absolutely nothing about the gadget itself, focusing instead on creating a buzz around the device through snappy visuals and a seemingly single-take spectacle. Well, you see what we mean: The …
It's rendered.
Honda just called. They want their advert back.
..by about a minute
I sat to the end of this, thinking that maybe something would happen, but noooo. Only the worlds slowest ever trainset. I don't want to know how much they were paid for that.
It was strangely agonizing watching that slow train. :)
I think its the expectation, wondering what the train is going to do. Kind of disappointing in the end though, as it was hard to read the shadows it produced, but the effect of the parallax shadows (near the beginning) was interesting.
A far better implementation of this idea was used by Honda several years ago.
TBH this one is so slow I find it quite boring.
If this is to be a bit of a series, let's hope that at least one of the ads actually tells us something about the product or shows it in action. Unlike the original PS3 ads which only seemed to remember such things at the end of the ad when mentioning the product name.
Creating awareness of a product is fine, but average consumer may be a bit more swayed if they can at least see the damn thing!
They want their ad-campaign back
I do like those kind of ads shame it's Sony and I won't be having a second look at it.
Probably be a good product but those bridges are long burnt.
Suffering inferior products just because Microsoft told you to not buy Sony?
As opposed to suffering inferior products just because you love Sony, eh?
All well and good, but will Sony sue us for rooting it?
..from them rooting us.
Oh, I've not forgotten about that, Sony...so no £££ for you.
I just don't understand this childish mentality of treating a company like it's an individual person that has done you some harm. Sony is a huge company and one division screwed up, in fact it was probably just a handful of people responsible. Get over it all ready.
Do you also boycott Volkswagen, Fiat, Bayer, Porsche, Boss, IBM, Kawasaki, Mitsubishi and other such companies that worked for the axis powers during WW2?
Looks like a car advert - i.e. nothing to do with the actual product.
"Sony S1: slow boring and a poor imitation"
Submitted at
Is that really the impression they want to give?
Or is it "If we aren't doing anything for 117 seconds, that's 117 seconds in which we didn't fuck up"
This ad needs more whalesong, the use of the word "magical" (if Apple hasn't already copyrighted it), and more happy, slim, well-dressed metrosexuals with white teeth, happy and laughing in a suitable, well-lit metrosexual social situation.
pah, humbug.
Bad advert. I kept thinking the tablet had the I Love You virus, not exactly a selling point.
Are we watching the same video? That was absolutely naff! Boring 2.0
Those people are on crack cocaine or LSD .. well at least they are on something :)
This advert is not worth the blank dvd it came on.More crap that will thankfully be forgotten tomorrow morning , meanwhile , i'm going back to bed to make sure if it gets on the air that i miss it.
And not even a good ripoff of the Honda ad. It looks like it is entirely CGI anyway, which makes it less impressive even then some of the tech demos I recall seeing when buying new Nvidia and ATI graphics cards.
If you're going to take off someone elses idea, at least do it better.
Ignoring the fact that it's an advert, I quite like the leisurely CGI visuals. The lighting/shadows are quite effective. Someone's been at the Blender...
Didn't make sense unless just about all the 'reactions' used light sensing devices i.e. knocked a ball and a light went out.
This advert was painfully slow and dull and you didn't even get a look at the product.. . apparently it's wedge shaped (according to the article).
Would someone please describe the video? YouTube is banned at the office and I can't figure out what's wrong with the advert just by reading the comments.
Slow, boring, lame fail.
... what they're saying is that their tablet takes 1'57" to basically do damn all?
This version is the best
Does it also come with a rootkit?
Must have worked if we're talking about it? ;)
Genius spoof promo from the Onion
the actual ads they show about two-thirds of the way through the clip are more compelling than this one
er NSFW. kinda. if you don't like swearing where you work

I'd avoid it. The 1080p mode only shoots 10fps. That won't cut it for bike action.
Where does it say that? The only specs I could find either on the DX site page, or in the pdf manual stated 30fps for both shooting resolutions.
EDIT: Me bad, just watched the SJ72 review and they stated the frame rate was 10FPS for 1080p mode. Maybe they've improved it? Also the bike mount doesn't look so nice!

How Eddyville, KY, got its name
I came across some interesting information about the little town of Eddyville, KY, recently. To give this historic trivia some context, I must explain that Eddyville was a village on the Cumberland River. I use the past tense because the Cumberland River at Eddyville is now Lake Barkley. Most of old Eddyville-on-the-river is now underwater. Some of the concrete foundations and streets are still visible under the water and at the edge of the lake.
Eddyville today is located on higher ground near the lake. You can read a short history of the relocation of this Lyon County village at the "Explore Kentucky Lake" website. To this day, many in this part of Kentucky harbor hard feelings about the land the Federal government confiscated to make Kentucky Lake, Lake Barkley, and Land Between the Lakes. And there were other Federal land grabs around here too -- but that's another post.
Long before Lake Barkley came to be, Eddyville was a village beside the Cumberland River, at the mouth of Eddy Creek, two days downstream from Nashville, Tennessee. Eddyville was the last important river port of the Cumberland. From Eddyville, it was only 45 river miles to Smithland where the Cumberland flowed into the Ohio River. It was established in 1798, and by 1800, it already had a population of 69.
And now at last, I'm ready to pass along the bit of historic trivia that I promised -- the reason for the town's name. This would have been clearly evident at one time, but the lake has changed everything.
The Cumberland River, when it took its natural course, had two large eddies near the little settlement named Eddyville. Eddies are strong currents in the river that flow backwards or in a whirlpool. One of the eddies was below the town and the other eddy was two miles above the town. A French traveler, Michaux, wrote in his journal in 1795: "Rowed about seven leagues and slept at the Great Eddy, which is considered to be a distance of 45 miles from the mouth (of the Cumberland)." (Source)
I wonder if the eddies would still be there if the lake were drained.
Eddyville was a boat-building village. Matthew Lyon (father of Chittenden Lyon for whom Lyon County was named) was the first of several notable boat-builders. Besides the several gunboats that he built for the U.S. Government, he built a large number of barges and other river craft. A traveler of the Cumberland River in the early 1800s could stop in Eddyville and buy a boat that was sturdy enough for a trip down the Mississippi River all the way to New Orleans.

Consensus Report
When Weather Matters: Science and Service to Meet Critical Societal Needs (2010)Board on Atmospheric Sciences and Climate
Each report is produced by a committee of experts selected by the Academy to address a particular statement of task and is subject to a rigorous, independent peer review; while the reports represent views of the committee, they also are endorsed by the Academy. Learn more on our expert consensus reports.
Weather matters for life, health, safety, property, and economic prosperity. Weather forecasts provide information that people and organizations can use to enhance these societal benefits and to reduce weather-related losses. Investing $5.1 billion annually in public weather forecasts and warnings has brought an estimated $31.5 billion dollars in benefits. Yet between 1980 and 2009 there were 96 weather disasters that each cost more than $1 billion—and cost many lives. This National Research Council report puts forward the most pressing high level, weather-focused research challenges and needs to transfer research results into operations. Cutting across these challenges are socioeconomic considerations that are fundamental in determining how, when, and why weather information is, or is not, used. The report calls for a partnership of social scientists and meteorologists to ensure that weather research and forecasting meet societal and economic needs. The report also identifies predictions of very high impact weather, urban meteorology, and weather information for renewable energy development as important emerging issues in need of greater research to develop understanding and reach implementation. Priorities among established—or recognized but unrealized—goals include global non–hydrostatic coupled modeling; quantitative precipitation forecasting; hydrologic prediction; and mesoscale observations.
Key Messages
- Filling key gaps in the socioeconomics of weather will substantially benefit the weather community, a broad range of users, and, more importantly, society at large. Priority topics requiring attention are estimating the value of weather information, understanding its interpretation and use, and improving communication of information.
- Over the past decade or so, several research and transitional needs have been recognized as increasingly important. Understanding of these issues, and implementation of results, remains in the early stages. These emerging priorities include: very high impact weather, urban meteorology, and renewable energy development.
- There are multiple research needs and goals for transitioning research into operations that have been recognized for some time as important, yet still need attention from the weather community. Achieving these goals will require input from social scientists and will result in significant societal benefits. These established priorities include: global non-hydrostatic coupled modeling; quantitative precipitation forecasting; hydrologic prediction; and mesoscale observations.

Final high school art fest
Valley City High School's artists will have one last chance to shine on Thursday at the VCHS Fine Arts Festival.
The exhibition in the school starts at 6 p.m. and comes days after several VCHS art students were honored for their achievements in the Junior Duck Stamp Competition at the state's annual banquet in Bismarck.
VCHS art instructor Kelly Callahan said as an art instructor, she can only do so much, but her students help teach and motivate each other.
"They push each other, they see what the other students are doing, if they've reached their level or a higher level, and they inspire each other.
"That's what I'm amazed by, every year, whether there's competition or not I'm always really pleased with the kids work.
"The sad thing about competition is there's not that many places for winners," she said.
In the duck stamp competition, freshman Jazzlyn Statema was one of the first place winners for the grade 7-9 division, freshman Alexa McCulloch and senior Tera Laney-Ueker were second place finishers in the 7-9 and 10-12 division, respectively, and freshman Arelle Kruger and senior Taylor Storhoff were third place contestants in their respective divisions.
Felicia Esch, a freshman, beat out over 1,100 other students to win the State Conservation Message.
"I told the kids 'if you don't win for your picture, you can win for your message, but it's a tough one to win because there's only one."
"We've one the conservation message three times, but I tell the students 'it's a long shot'"
Callahan said the message is optional in regards to submitting artwork, but she herself requires it as part of the student's grade.
"The competition isn't just about having a duck picture, it's the whole picture of what the state is trying to do and that awareness; you're tying in ecology, your tying in science and your tying in art - what we can do to help the environment," she said.
A major factor in judging the contest is scientific accuracy, and art instructor Carol Foth said biology teacher Randy Toppen has been instrumental in helping the students.
"If we have any questions, we go to Randy," Foth said.
