Smartphone battery life can often be a frustrating problem for those constantly on the go or during an emergency without electricity.
Realizing this, Ampware has announced the launch of CrankCase and CrankBox, a smartphone case with an integrated hand-crank generator and a universal generator, respectively.
- RELATED: Off-The-Grid Maps Turn Your Smart Phone Into A Versatile Off-Grid GPS
- RELATED: Multi-Use Sunbell Solar Lamp and Phone Charger
The revolutionary devices allow smartphones and virtually any mobile USB charged device to never be without power, regardless of location.
Ampware's patent-pending technology instantly develops 500 mA when hand cranked. Should users ever find themselves without power, they can re-energize their device's battery, getting three hours of battery life for five minutes of crank time. Plug any USB-charged device into the charging port for a jump charge.
CrankCase will be designed for popular smartphone models, including iPhone 5, 5S and 6 in various colors (Compatibility for Android and other devices is in development). The CrankCase also features a hidden, removable CrankCable under the crank handle. This cable can be used like a normal cable in emergencies or when you don't have one. Plus the phone can be charged with regular cables without removing the phone from the case.
An option for all smartphone/mobile device users, the CrankBox will also be separately available to charge any device using a USB connection.

Dear Daniel,
Please let me know if you are planning a visit to New Zealand, we would be very happy to meet you.
My son also loves numbers, I was reading him recently your book "Born on a blue day" and he liked it very much. Thanks for making other people aware that being "different" doesn't neccessarily mean that there is something wrong with them that needs fixing. You have a beautiful mind, autistic kids/people have beautiful minds, the only mind that need fixing is the human mind :)

Hi, Daniel ^^
I really admire you and the way you see the world - it's not just interesting, it's simple and most of beautiful things that we know are simple.
I'm from Brazil and it's difficult to find your books here, specially in the place where I live and I've not read them yet.
I hope you come to my country someday, I'd really like to know you and tell you about Amazônia and the habits we have here - I don't know if you like to know about it, but Amazônia is much more than people think.
Hugs and a nice week to you...

Last Friday I wrote my predictions and strategies for the MBS Turkey Challenge. This was my first two-day competition and it was a bunch of fun. And once again I completely and totally overestimated my abilities…
10min AMRAP:
30 Snatch (75)
30 Snatch (95)
30 Snatch (125)
Last week I figured I would get done with the 75# snatches in about 90 seconds, done with the round of 95# around the three minute mark and giving my best to 145# after about six minutes. I cannot emphasize this enough – I was wrong. So wrong. Like I suddenly thought I was Rich Froning or something. My goal was 125 total reps and I only got 81.
I am not exactly sure on my times, but I did go 15-15 on the 75# snatches. I did follow my strategy here as I stopped after 15 snatches even though I could have continued. The bar started empty and I had to take the 15# plates off to put on 25# plates so the transition took a bit longer, but I think I was starting my round of 30 snatches at 95# around the two minute mark. As I started in at 95# I got through nine reps and my grip was suddenly failing. It was hurting. I kept mixing in hook grip and I had to control the bar down to my waist before letting go. That little bit of extra effort cost me my grip a bit, too. I am not sure when I moved on to 125#, but when I did I knew it would be hard to get to 145#. I was gassed. I always forget to calculate in how much work I have already done leading up to sections of workouts when I look forward. At this point the 60 snatches prior to 125 made 125 feel a lot heavier. I pushed for the last few reps to get to 81 and when I was done I was happy with that score. Continue reading

The book, by Ania Ahlborn, is an Amazon product in more ways than one. It not only was published by 47North, Amazon's sci-fi, fantasy and horror imprint, but it's a self-published horror e-book bestseller, making it something of a poster child for Amazon's whole move to digital, content creation, and operator of a publishing marketplace for others as well.

In 2004, Kurt Busch became NASCAR's first Chase champion. He was extraordinarily fortunate. One reason he won it was because the Ford Busch drove for Jack Roush that year had on it the smartest tire in the sport's history.
The right-front tire flew off at the only place where his title hopes could be preserved. On the 93rd of 267 laps in the final race at Homestead-Miami Speedway, it flew off near the entrance of the pits. Busch was able to limp down pit road as the errant tire rolled down the front straight and into turn one, thus producing the caution flag that saved Busch. Greg Biffle won the race, but Busch managed to finish fifth, and fifth was enough to win the title.
Many of the elder Busch brother's wounds since have been self-inflicted, but since he enjoyed one of the great lucky breaks in the sport's history, fortune has not often smiled on him. Perhaps a title was worth it.
Not even in the wild early days, when drivers learned their craft hauling moonshine up and down mountain roads with "revenuers" in hot pursuit, did a driver accuse his girlfriend, one Patricia Driscoll, of being a trained assassin.
Now that, if true, was a walk on the wild side.
Then there was the time Busch ran afoul of Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio's men when he was arrested near the Phoenix track and charged with reckless driving. He and the combustible sheriff, who said, "He can speed on the race track, but he's not going to speed on the streets of Maricopa County," later made up, but Roush yanked Busch out of his car and the Roush Racing president at the time, Geoff Smith, famously said, "This is the last straw. We're officially retiring as Kurt Busch's apologists."
Busch made the mistake arrogant men often make in confontations with the authorities.
Apparently you don't know who the #*$! I am.
That seldom works well. It was in 2005.
People change. They may not grow up, but they learn lessons.
Now Kurt Busch is 40 years old. He and his brother, Kyle, have both won championships. His life has stabilized, but his career has leveled off. He's moving on to a new ride next year, replacing Jamie McMurray with Chip Ganassi's Chevrolet team. The man who won the first Chase won his 30th race this year. His brother, who is seven years younger, has won 51.
Ganassi is lucky to have him. Now that Kurt has learned to behave most of the time, he is a polished, mature driver. The last driver who performed up to spec for Ganassi was Sterling Marlin. If Ganassi is ever going to put together a team that really works, it may well be the tandem of Busch and the breathtakingly talented Kyle Larson.
I hope so. I really do. Kurt Busch has always been a good fellow when he's in his right mind. It's just that every time it seems like his life has some semblance of normality, well, he has one of those days.

Long car trips: toys and other entertainments
Categories: Electronics, Entertainment, Managing stress, Toys, Travel
My friend Heather is moving across the entire country with children aged almost-3 and almost-5. If I were her I would say that as "ages 2 and 4," to maximize the Pity Factor.
She is looking for ideas to keep the children entertained on the trip. If your first suggestion is "NO DON'T DO IT AT ALL! Fly instead!! With the children in animal crates!!" you can save your breath because I already tried it. They will be in the car at least six days, and that is final.
I suggest we see if we can make this easier for her in any way. Donations of prescription medications would be excellent too, but I was thinking more along the lines of travel tips and toy ideas.
My tip, based on taking two much-shorter trips (1.5-days in the car each trip) with a 2-year-old and a newborn, is to plan to stop at places that have a play area or a grassy run-around area, and include in estimated trip time the amount of time it would take for the kids to run/play/climb for 15 minutes or so at each stop. Plus assume triple the number of stops needed with adults. This makes the entire trip take much, much longer.
My second tip is to save some stuff aside and not bring out everything on the first day of travel, or else the children will play frantically with all the toys on the first day and be bored for the rest of the trip. (This is a pointless tip, because if it were me, I'd be desperate enough on the first day to bring out anything, ANYTHING I had.)
Now for things to buy:
1. Fresh TV/movies. Heather tells me that they already have a DVD player for the car, so I suggest buying several new DVDs. …This doesn't seem like it's brilliant enough to suggest, but that didn't stop me from suggesting the kids could run around at rest stops. Blue's Clues (photo from Amazon.com) is one of the ones I got for the just-turned-2-year-old on my own trip, so it may be too young for the 2- and 4-year-olds—but anything, ANYTHING they would like that wouldn't be intolerable for the adults.
2. Water-drawing thingie. The H-2 Whoa is the one we had. It's two-sided, so by the time you finish drawing on the second side, the first side is mostly dry and ready to use again. But if I were buying now, I'd buy the travel-sized Aqua Doodle (photo from Amazon.com). (In fact, I DID buy it, and we still keep it in our car. I like it less because it has pre-printed rainbows/grass on it, which can kind of ruin an outer space drawing. But it IS more sensibly compact.)

July 23, 2012
I had promised a Sunday post, and I'm just squeaking in under the wire here. My plan was to write and schedule this ahead of time. That didn't happen, but an epic hike day did.
We do that once in awhile, have an epic hiking or backpacking trip. Something that pushes our limits.
Today it was a 17 kilometer (10.5 miles) mountain hike. The longest distance we've ever done in one day. I'm beat. But I really wanted to post this before I crash for the night.
Look what came in the mail this past week from Graham Gardens.
In my never-ending quest for 100% natural and thoroughly effective bug repellent I contacted Graham Gardens earlier this year to ask if I could trial their BugBar. Bug repellent is one of the few skin care items I don't make for our family. Sunscreen is the other. (I would love recipes for both, if anyone has any.)
Along with the BugBar from Graham Gardens, Christopher and Gina sent soap, lip balm, body scrub and body oil.
Some of these goodies went straight to the girls, as I requested the items specifically for them. But the ipanema body scrub is all mine and good gracious is that heavenly stuff.
Can you believe that I've never used a scrub like this before on my skin? I feel so pampered after using it. And I smell good enough to eat. (I actually had a teensy taste of the scrub, it smelled so good.)
And their soap? Oh my. My favorite so far is Bella Luna. I've been making my own soap for years but I keep it pretty simple - with the least expensive essential oils and basic carrier oils. Graham Garden soaps are luxurious and smell so incredibly good. I'm tempted to just keep them wrapped up in the bathroom, looking and smelling so pretty.
The girls got these balms. Mom has to borrow.
I'm leaving a review of the BugBar for later, but I will say the bugs don't like it.
Thanks Gina and Christopher. Check out Graham Gardens for yourself. Their stuff is luscious, beautiful and their service is great (you get organic candies with your order - my kids loved that.)
Renee Tougas participates in affiliate marketing, including the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. Whenever you buy something on Amazon from a link you clicked here, I get a (very) small percentage of that sale. See disclosure for further explanation.
Oh, this is perfect! I have actually be on the look out for natural bug repellant. I'm going to look into this company! Thanks...and wow to the hike!
Renee, this is totally off-topic. Don't you rent out your house in the US? How is that going? We moved 11 hours from home last year. We have had our house for sale, but it is not selling. We are now considering doing what we do not want to do ~ renting out the house. I just picture it being destroyed or big things tearing up and us having to repair them long distance. If you have time, would you leave a quick note letting me know if this is working well for you? Thank you! We are looking at possibly downsizing, so I am reading back through your old posts. Love your blog!
Earlier this year I made a spray bug repellant. I'll have to dig through my supplies and notes to see what the breakdown was and add to this note. It was a riff on the recipe posted by Mountain Rose Herbs (June '07 newsletter, you can find it online). The base was a mix of distilled water, some tree tea hydrosol and a bit of witch hazel distillate (I figured if I had any scrapes I'd make the thing soothing and anti-bacterial) . Really the distilled water is the thing needed IMHO.
My essential oils, in descending volume, were a blend of peppermint, eucalyptus, citronella, and lemongrass. All reported to ward off biting insects. If I could have located the correct botanical catnip essential oil, I would have added it too. I'm growing it just to infuse now.
Anyways...it was tested starting in May. We could actually see the critters fly up to people in our group and then stop and hover anywhere from 6-12" away from their intended snack. I've used it since and have been bite free.
That's awesome. I made some mixes in years past that haven't worked so well. How often do you have to re-apply? Ie: if we're hiking and sweating a lot does it lose effectiveness fast?
I'm not able to say how much sweating affects its effectiveness with regard to re-applying it. I have always been one of those people that applies bug spray every hour or two, even the DEET stuff, because I really don't want to take the risk of getting bitten...I have an autoimmune issue and bug bites can become badly infected, quickly. So, I've used the same timeline with the DIY spray. When I can't smell the stuff anymore I assume it to have worn off and I spray some more.
That said...I used to get bitten overnight when I obviously wasn't up spraying myself. We sleep in our trailer at motorcycle racetrack campgrounds (trailer is similar to yours), vs. a tent, and a few mosquitos always find a way in before we close up for the night. This year has been good. So, the spray may have more power than I give it credit for.
Thanks Melissa.
Hey Renee!
Your pictures are lovely - thank you for the kind words, we're just tickled that you are enjoying your goodies.
I can't wait to hear your BugBar report. I know those Canadian mosquitos aren't kidding around!
Have a great day with your dear ones.
P.S. Ipanema is my favorite, too. I was never a scrub kinda' gal, but these have been really fun to create. And, they sure do make my skin feel yummy! You crazy girl, tasting the scrub!! We've tasted them, too, but we'll do anything in the name of product safety . . .

For more shows throughout the weekend, check out our New York Concert Calendar, which we update daily.
Friday, 6/12
MONO| Holly Hunt
Le Poisson Rouge
7:30 p.m., $18 advance; $20 day of show
The crucial combo of experimental kooks Boredoms and all-instrumental ensemble MONO have long anchored the Japanese music scene with decidedly different visions. But it's been MONO who've been the more active of the pioneering twosome, both on vinyl and in blazing the tour circuit. Late last year, MONO followed up 2012's For My Parents with, not just one measly record, but two albums released on the same day. The Last Dawn and companion piece Rays of Darkness manifested MONO's fully realized vision of sinister yet electrifying opuses that sublimely blend post-rock, slow rock and doom metal with classical music-influenced salvos. Roaming a like-minded stratum as Mogwai, MONO's live show is hypnotic and dense. In the intimate setting of Le Poisson Rouge, this collective is sure to expand minds with its slow-building epics. – Brad Cohan
Ustad Aashish Khan
St. Peter's Episcopal Church
8:00 p.m., $30
Heredity counts for a lot in Indian classical music. Aashish Khan began studying the lute-like sarod at age five with his illustrious grandfather, Alauddin Khan, the guru of sitarist Ravi Shankar and Aashish's father, Vilayat Khan, with whom he continued his studies. He co-founded the fusion group Shanti with Zakir Hussain and performed on George Harrison's Wonderwall Music. He's joined here by sarodist Shri Anupam Shobhakar, Pandit Anindo Chatterjee on tabla, and Pandit Manik Munde on the two-headed Pakhavaj drum. – Richard Gehr
Bad Religion
Bowery Ballroom
8 p.m., Sold Out
Whether you consider Bad Religion the thinking punker's choice or the soundtrack to undergraduate societal discontent, it's impossible to fault the band for encouraging considered dissent, sponsoring an annual college scholarship, or giving "21st Century Digital Boy" to a crumbling world that's emphatically tuned it's three-chord broadsides out (and there have been so, so many) since Day One. Along for the ride because, why not: California's next generation of punk rockers (and fellow Epitaph label champs) Plague Vendor. The show is sold out, but tickets can be found on the secondary market. — Ray Cummings
Tyler, the Creator
Irving Plaza
7 p.m., Sold Out
Tyler, the Creator is far from old as hell. At 24 years old, the Los Angeles native and Odd Future frontman (born Tyler Gregory Okonma) can't legally rent a car, and his antics — on- and off-stage — often put him in the goofball-kid-brother category. His live performances are a testosterone-fueled, A.D.D. frenzy. He's been known to jump from the rafters, spin around in office chairs, and occasionally don a wig. At Coachella this year, he famously stopped his set and said "fuck you" to Kendall Jenner for not paying attention. He isn't worried about that happening at his forthcoming show at Irving Plaza. "New York is probably my best market, to be honest," he said. "I always have good shows there. New York is really tight. Ever since day one." Tickets may be available on the secondary market. – Sowmya Krishnamurthy
Esperanza Spalding Presents: Emily's D+Evolution / José James
Celebrate Brooklyn at the Prospect Park Bandshell
7:30 p.m., FREE
The jazz bassist and singer Esperanza Spalding is currently on loan from Brooklyn to San Francisco, where she serves as resident creative director at SFJazz and plays a handful of (typically sold-out) performances. "What is the new project?" Spalding murmurs thoughtfully when asked what Emily's D+Evolution is all about. "It's hard to jump right into describing it. It's a lot of things: It's going back to go forward; it's going back to before anyone ever heard me. So it will be new, even though it's old. It's an old curiosity that's being explored in a new way for me." A simple summation, but an apt one, too. Emily's D+Evolution finds Spalding taking a break from her Grammy-winning adult incarnation and hooking up with Emily, her inner child. Emily is her middle name, and "D+Evolution" refers to the nonsense notion that organized education is the only way to learn anything. – Linda Laban

Graham Parker & The Rumour
Highline Ballroom
7:30 p.m., $45 – $75
No, that's not Elvis Costello's voice you hear when the chorus to "Local Girls" reaches its new wave peak. That squeal is courtesy of yet another Brit: Graham Parker. Along with his backing group The Rumour, Parker left a mark on the late Seventies music scene with the seminal album Squeezing Out Sparks (even snagging album of the year in the Voice's 1979 Pazz & Jop Critics Poll). Parker reunited with The Rumour for Judd Apatow's 2012 film This is 40 and have since been touring behind their record Three Chords Good, their first album together since 1980. – Silas Valentino
Viet Cong
Music Hall of Williamsburg
8 p.m., $15
It's almost a shame Viet Cong's drummer Michael Wallace is all mended after breaking his arm last winter. Normally, a broken limb is not a good thing for a drummer, but this Calgary quartet spectacularly navigated SXSW gigs supporting their self-titled winter-released EP with Wallace playing one-armed, augmented by both Metz drummer Hayden Menzies for one set, and Swans/Shearwater powerhouse Thor Harris for another. Lemonade from lemons? Both shows are part of the Northside Festival, and both are sold out. Tickets may be available on the secondary market. Note: Viet Cong are performing again on Sunday (6/14) under the same circumstances. – Linda Laban
Sunday, 6/14
Red Hook Jazz Festival
Urban Meadow
1 p.m., $10
Concertgoers know context counts — it always helps if the room is right for the music. The Red Hook Jazz Festival takes place in an urban meadow lined with flora and fauna, perfectly situated to catch the breezes blowing off Buttermilk Channel while improvisers fill the air with expressionistic art. From groovers to freedom fliers, this year's successive-Sundays affair milks the local scene for diversity. Today the dreamy delirium of guitarist Ben Monder, the bold nu-bop of pianist Alon Nechushtan, and the architectural abstractions of Trio X & Rosi Hertlein (as well as trumpeter Ahmed Abdullah and violinist Jason Kao Hwang) whisk you to the nearest faraway place. On the 21st, organist Brian Charette leaps into high-flying funk-swing, guitarist Rez Abbasi plugs in for some seismic jazz-rock, and the Brooklyn Qawwali Party rocks its frenzied spin on Sufi devotional music until its good foot is calling all the shots. (Guitarist Kenny Wessel and saxophonist Eric Person are also on the bill.) This is the eighth year of this feisty little affair at this super-cozy spot, always a good hang. One bit of advice: Don't forget the hat and sunblock. – Jim Macnie
Blue Note Jazz Festival
Blue Note
Daily, 8 p.m., $20 – $55
Some jazz fests bet the farm on stylistic focus; some let a wide breadth carry the day. File this year's Blue Note Jazz Festival in the latter category and get ready for action. If you participate fully, you'll be bouncing around town (and genres). How else to describe a month-long confab that includes Bebel Gilberto and Kathleen Battle as well as Oliver Lake and the Rippingtons? Mainstream swing, old-school blues, swamp rock, classical refractions, and the city's first all-women mariachi outfit — the BNJF curators aren't sweating the orthodoxy, and that alone is rather refreshing. Icons are invited, of course; saxophonist Lee Konitz, drummer Roy Haynes, and pianist Abdullah Ibrahim still have the power to amaze. You'll need to sketch your own must-see list, but be wise: That Bad Plus-Joshua Redman gig has to make the cut. – Jim Macnie

It's time to make your New Year's resolutions. Are you going to the gym more or foregoing the sweets? But while personal goals are nice, don't forget about business goals.
Have you thought about resolving to help your key clients? If not, here are some things you can do in 2012 to help you and your clients flourish.
Annual meetings
First and foremost, arrange annual "off-the-clock" meetings with your top key clients to discuss their business and company goals. Such meetings are an opportunity to review critical aspects of your relationship, assess your firm's progress over the last year, and conduct an industry analysis for your client, identifying its competitors and issues that may affect it in the future.
Wherever the discussion leads, the main goal of the annual meeting is to demonstrate how much you value the ongoing relationship with your client and to plant yourself in its business strategies by showing the many ways that you can facilitate various aspects of its business plan.
The platinum rule
Follow the "Platinum Rule" developed by the Akina Corp. We all know the Golden Rule: to treat others as you would like others to treat you. When thinking about business development and others' needs, however, employ the Platinum Rule: treat others as they would want to be treated.
For example, when you are meeting with clients, put yourself in their place and decipher what their goals are for the meeting. Focus not on your agenda, but on your client's. Client agendas can range from billing rates to budgetary concerns to unforeseen difficulties.
Listen more
This is always easier said than done. If you consciously go into your next client meeting pledging to actively listen during the conversation, you most assuredly will discover more work for your client. You will gain more insight by hearing the client state its concerns in its own words.
If you would like to cross-market some of your current clients, listening is a key tactic you must employ.
Remember that some of your business may also come from partners in your office. Listen to your partners and ask them about their current matters, which may lead to more opportunities.
Take a page from Atticus' "How Good Attorneys Become Great Rainmakers" to fulfill another New Year's resolution: to maintain Top-of-Mind Awareness with clients and key referral sources.
TOMA means that a potential referral source remembers you first when it comes to making a referral. In the formula for TOMA success, the goal is to be in contact with past clients and existing referral sources at least once per quarter through written correspondence of some kind. If a client or referral source has a potential referral, he often will send it to the attorney or firm he remembers most, or the one who is freshest in his mind
Alliance partners
Alliance partners are also great sources for helping to develop new business and new contacts.
In January 2012, look through your contacts and identify two to three individuals who have synergies between similar clients and with whom you have business relationships.
The next step is to speak with your contact about working together to help your clients through a seminar, webinar, article, round table discussion, etc.
The last resolution is simple but underutilized. Remember to ask for new business and referral sources when you are implementing your "listening" skills. By employing the "ask" method, you may uncover new avenues to bring in business.
Everyone has personal contacts, whether it's at a family or neighborhood gathering, a son's or daughter's sporting event, or town meeting or some other social gathering. When you are out and about, ask what line of business your personal contacts are in and learn about who they know.
The best compliment is a referral, and some of your friends or acquaintances certainly know someone who would benefit from meeting with you.
Of course, we can say now that we are going to keep these New Year's resolutions, but just like in promising to get to the gym, it's easy to make excuses. Stop making excuses, choose one of the above ideas and try something new in 2012.

Our customer service team in San Francisco is ready to assist you.
Monday - Friday
Chip-resistant formula for bolder color that just won't quit. • Easy-flow brush. • Formaldehyde, DBP and Toluene free.
First apply a clear base coat to help your nail color last longer. With one sweep, paint the first line of nail polish starting from the base to the tip. Then apply color to the rest of the nail.
For Shredded shades, pick your favorite Color Show nail color as a base and apply. Wait for nails to dry completely. Apply one coat of Color Show Shredded nail color and watch it shred!

I have three shades ( including a shredded polish ) but will defiantly be getting more! The polishes are super high quality and require no more than too coats. They are very opaque and also very affordable. You can find them for less than 3 pounds at the drugstore and they are usually on offer. Maybelline have impressed me with this collection, and my favourite shade is without a doubt, love lilac.
I only need the normal 1-2 coats with this stuff. Of course if you want the colour to pop you'll need a white base coat but even without the white, the color is still very bright and pretty!! It's cheap too! Budget friendly!
First time ever using a Maybelline nail color and I'm quite impressed. The Vintage Leather collection dries down to matte finish and dries quickly. After one coat its quite opaque. I applied two then a clear coat. For $3.99 a bottle I will definitely pick up more shades from this line.Love,love,love!!
I dont know why most girls dont like it. I am in love with these polishes. They last for about 4 days without chipping and with top or base coat 5 - 6 days. I think thats amazing for the price as well. I also think that if you dont feel like putting two coats you can get away with one. The only thing is that I think they should come out with more original colors even do I love the ones that are already out. I own 6 colors but I want to pick up some more as well ;)
this nail polish is WAY better than i expected! its good in one coat! but i but 2 just incase ;) i love the packing to i think its just so unique. i def. will be buying alot more of these!!!!!!!!!
I love these nail polishes so much. They go on really easily and smoothly. They last long and don't chip. The only problem is the brush, I think it's too thick but it's not that big of a problem anyway and doesn't affect my nail. Overall I recommend! :)
I don't know why this colors look like clearer o the bottle and darker on me. i like the color it is just maybe not the correct tone for me. however i like them. they last and this one just took one coat to cover correctly my nail. so i'll keep trying it. it also dry fast which i apreciate.
At firs sight i like the color it looks creamy and soft but it was my mistake since i think it looks dark on my ski . however it took 3 coats to show a solid color. It last like 3 4 days but whit an extra cover of tranparent polish it last longer. the color shown on web or here is more like mint or so and in real life it is darker.
I absolutely loved this nail polish as it looks really clean and shiny and it didn't chip off easily so stayed put for 4 ish day. The only problem I would say that it would be better if it was a strengthening polish too.
I was desperate for a black and saw this brand so i thought i would give it a go and i am very glad i did. A lot of people say this nail varnish needs lots of coats, i didn't have this problem but it might of been because i had black? I think for how much you pay, its perfectly fine. Would recommend this to a friend!

No Thanks, Obama and McCain. Continuing Indefinite Detention Isn't Closing Guantánamo.
A bad idea doesn't somehow become a good idea just because five years have gone by. But the Obama White House and Sen. John McCain seem ready to recycle a proposal that was overwhelmingly rejected in 2010. President Obama has renewed his commitment to closing Guantánamo before he leaves office, and...

Senators Demand the Military Lock Up American Citizens in a "Battlefield" They Define as Being Right Outside Your Window
While nearly all Americans head to family and friends to celebrate Thanksgiving, the Senate is gearing up for a vote on Monday or Tuesday that goes to the very heart of who we are as Americans. The Senate will be voting on a bill that will direct American military resources not at an enemy shooting at our military in a war zone, but at American citizens and other civilians far from any battlefield — even people in the United States itself.

Retallying, the final cost of putting together my new sewing room was $1,284. I'm pretty pleased with myself for keeping the costs to a minimum. For me, that means more money to spend on fabric... though I don't have much room to spare in that cabinet!
A bit more of the sewing I've been doing is this, my first foray into machine-sewn hexagons. They will become a table runner/dresser scarf for the guest room. Of course, I'm lovin' the colors.
The most exciting news is that a group of quilters (about 12 of us) are starting a new chapter of The Modern Quilt Guild! We'll be the Central Florida Modern Quilt Guild and will meet outside of The Villages so as to allow younger (less than 55 year-olds) quilters and wanna-be quilters join us. Our first open-to-the-public meeting is Thursday evening, November 15 at 6:30 p.m. at Sharky's Vac 'n Sew in Wildwood. We plan to show modern quilts in a presentation called "The Modern Quilt Guild: Quilting for a New Generation." Now we're looking for people who will design our chapter logo, and set up a web presence for us. Then, depending on the response to our November meeting, we'll begin meeting monthly in 2013, choosing officers, establishing dues, and adopting by-laws (Thanks to the Des Moines MQG, we have great by-laws to model.) Of course, anyone in the vicinity is welcome to come! Linda

Dynamite and Atari team up for new comic ventures
Dynamite Entertainment announced today that it will team up with Atari, Inc. in a collaboration that will include securing the rights to a retrospective hardcover book comprised of photos and concept artwork, as well as behind-the-scenes information and interviews with those involved in Atari's history. The collaboration allows the company to publish original graphic novels and comics based on popular Atari properties such as Asteroids, Centipede, Missile Command, Crystal Castles and Tempest. In addition, Dynamite plans to re-print existing material such as the 1980s' Atari Force comics.
"We are excited to be teaming up with Dynamite Entertainment to bring a modern twist to a classic series of comics and table top books that are rich with historic art," Fred Chesnais, Chief Executive Officer of Atari said in a statement. "Atari's roots in the comic book world and iconic art is a collector and video game enthusiast's dream. Our partnership is a fun way to expose our brand to a new generation and resonate with our long-time fans."
"Atari is a touchstone for so many people," added Dynamite Director of Business Development Rich Young. "Their games and game system exposed a lot of folks to video games for the first time … and frankly, got them hooked! I have fond memories of playing games on the 2600 with friends growing up, and am quite happy that we have a chance to work with Atari on this publishing program."
Originally founded in 1972, Atari was the pioneer of video consoles and arcade games, and helped pave the way for the entertainment gaming industry throughout the next decade. Dynamite's products will be available through comic book stores and digital platforms such as Comixology and Dynamite Digital.

So many farms are named on twentieth century maps of Spencers Wood that you would guess that they had to be small individual holdings. Indeed the land is not particularly suitable for extensive farming. The steep slopes down towards Grazeley and the poor soils generally are often wet and were difficult to cultivate. The Enclosure Acts formed the small regular fields as late as 1864. By then there was improvement in farming methods and machinery, and an urgent demand from the growing population of local towns for fresh food.
Farmers could supply and transport milk, fruit and vegetables as well as fresh meat to Reading and even to London by train on a daily basis. For a time farming was reliably profitable, and a farm owner could make a decent income. Some village farms belonged to an owner who lived elsewhere with larger land holdings, and the farm here was run by his tenant. The owners of other farms lived on the land and either farmed themselves or had labourers working under the direction of the bailiff or farm manager. The 'gentleman farmer' was an important person in local society.
This variety led to a mosaic of arable and livestock farming. There were dairy farms, orchards, soft fruit farms, pig and poultry holdings, and growers of flowers and general 'market garden' producers. Goats were kept by the Red Lion opposite the post office. Local businesses developed to support these farms: the farrier, saddler, the local abattoir, the carter, vehicle maintenance and tool suppliers and repairers.
Individual farms could change hands quite frequently. Sometimes the farm name did not change, but often it took on the new owner's name. Mullins Farm on Basingstoke Road is named on the first and second (1871 and 1900) editions of the Ordnance Survey maps, but by the 1911 edition it is called Body's Farm. It retains that name to the present day. Farming was a widespread activity in Spencers Wood until the second half of the last century. Then pressures for housing and rising land prices resulted in the changes we see today. Eventually small scale farming could not last and houses, infrastructure and solar panels stand where fields and hedgerows once marked the farmland.
The History Group has information from some residents, and from varied sources such as Mary Russell Mitford writing in the 1820's, and the Government Agricultural Census taken during World War II. We would be interested to hear from anyone who can tell us more about farms and farming in Spencers Wood.

No matter how long this government shutdown lasts or how many more follow, 2020 will actually be a national security election, not an election about shutdown.
In the wake of Secretary of State Pompeo's and National Security Advisor Bolton's recent trips to the greater Middle East, we have to focus on the combustible situation in the region. It echoes that of the Balkans in the run-up to World War I. Of course, we also have the emergent threat from China … and, yes, there's a new nuclear arms race.
Since the fall of the Berlin Wall, we've gone from euphoria through catastrophe into confusion, one which led President Obama into the fantastical view that he could remake the world by ignoring its truths.
We're back where we didn't expect to be again: Superpower competition at every level, often just under the "kinetic" phase.
2020 is going to be a national security election.
The choice: More of Trump and his policies? or back to Obama-era make-believe?Read More »

Press Release Friday 16 May 2019
Ghostwriting must be taken seriously, says TEU
'Cheating by university students paying 'ghostwriters' to write essays for them is totally unacceptable and requires a nationally co-ordinated response', says the New Zealand Tertiary Education Union.TEU National President Michael Gilchrist says 'Unfortunately the news that this problem is extensive and possibly growing is a further symptom of the continuing commercialisation of university education in New Zealand. It is a symptom of the reduced role this commercialisation allows for staff engagement with students and staff voice in assessment design and implementation.''We need to take this problem seriously and lift our game in this area. That means calling on the expertise of lecturers, tutors and student support staff across the country. They are the experts who can identify ways to:
- Improve staff contact with students;
- Support genuine student engagement;
- Make it as difficult as possiblefor ghostwriting to go undetected; and,
- Make it as difficult as possible for anyone using a ghostwriter to succeed in passing a course.
We would like to see a nationally co-ordinated response, including national guidelines developed in this area. We have written to Universities New Zealand asking them to meet with us to discuss ways of developing such a response.'We must also look at the systemic pressures highlighted in the latest research into the State of the public tertiary education sector with regard to ongoing attacks on the profesional integrity of staff,' says Gilchrist.The discovery of the extent of this problem is a challenge that we should not ignore – it is also an opportunity we should not miss. It is an opportunity to improve the quality and integrity of our university system by adopting strategies that go beyond treating students as customers and competing for their enrolment fees.That in turn will improve the standing of our university system, both here and overseas.Media contact:Michael Gilchrist, TEU National President, 0278994256Sharn Riggs, TEU National Secretary, 027 443 8768

Ok, to start off let me say I don't know what I'm talking about and I may or may not have just ingested an illegal substance that impaired my ability to fully understand what the penguin was telling me about Binary Search Trees. Alright, none of that's true, but regardless, I don't know much about Binary Search Trees and everything I do know is in theory, not in code, so if you post some code, my head might explode trying to read it. Just a warning. ... by the way, to the moderators, if you feel this is more appropriate in another forum, sorry and please switch it to where you like.
Ok, anyway... I was wondering if this would be a believable way of sorting or if it's just so ridiculously unnecessary that I should just give up on the idea of it.
Let's say you have data such as email addresses which could be broken down into logical sub-strings (the web address and the user). Could you make a Tree that basically searches the web addresses and when it finds the appropriate one, points to another tree of only the users in that address. Would this be more efficient or less efficient? Is it even possible (it seems possible, it's really just a struct with a string, a left pointer, right pointer, and pointer to another root)?

How to Brownnose
Although the studies we discussed on the last page have shown how susceptible we are to brownnosing, we aren't always fooled. It's easy for a brownnoser to go too far.
When the boss finally does recognize that a brownnoser is sucking up for personal gain, the jig is up. He'll probably get disgusted with the brownnoser and brush off his flattering words from then on. The effective brownnoser is careful not to cross the line and make his plans obvious. Psychologists call this problem the Ingratiator's Dilemma. It refers to a brownnoser's attempt to get on someone's good side without overdoing it or making his scheme obvious.
Even if you don't consider yourself a brownnoser, you might run into this situation. For instance, to write an effective recommendation letter, one has to talk up the subject without crossing the line into ridiculous praise [source: Giacalone]. You might mean every word you say, but at a certain point, the reader might find it hard to believe. If you go too far, you could ruin the chances for the person you're trying to help.
It can be difficult to strike a balance between showing disrespect and fawning over your superiors. But there are some ways to effectively ingratiate yourself with your boss without raising red flags. For instance, your boss probably has a style and a rhythm all his own, and you should try to match it [source: Weiss]. Like the maxim says, "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery." Mimicking his behavior will help you win his favor and probably make you and your boss a more productive team. If you feel compelled to compliment him, be sincere.
Respect is the keyword here. You can respectfully follow orders even if you don't always agree with them. Although bosses may like yes-men, show enough respect for him that you occasionally voice disagreement. Let your respect shine through, and hope he appreciates and reciprocates it.

If you've ever been in a discussion with a Mormon and you've quoted one of their prophets or church leaders (and that quote was not favorable to their organization's current position on any given matter), then you no doubt have received the following response:
"But that was just his opinion."
So, is this a valid response or is this simply a dishonest retort which completely evades the issue?
Using only Mormon published materials, I will prove to you in this post that it's the latter.
Please read the following 23 quotes very carefully.
We do not wish incorrect and unsound doctrines be handed down to posterity under the sanction of great names, to be received and valued by future generations as authentic and reliable . . . . Errors in history and in doctrine, if left uncorrected by us who are conversant with the events, and who are in a position to judge of the truth or falsity of the doctrines, would go to our children as though we had sanctioned and endorsed them.– Brigham Young, Millennial Star, Volume 27, Page 659, 1865
I have never yet preached a sermon and sent it out to the children of men, that they may not call scripture. Let me have the privilege of correcting a sermon, and it is as good Scripture as they deserve. The people have the oracles of God continually. – Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, Volume 13, Page 95
I will commence by saying to the Latter-day Saints and to all the inhabitants of the earth that I am responsible for the doctrine I teach; but I am not responsible for the obedience of the people to that doctrine. – Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, Volume 13, Page 1, 1869
I will take up my text again—I am responsible for the doctrine I teach. – Brigham Young Journal of Discourses, Volume 13, Page 4, 1869
Brigham Young has said "when he sends forth his discourses to the world they may call them Scripture." I say now, when they are copied and approved by me they are as good Scripture as is couched in this Bible, and if you want to read revelation read the sayings of him who knows the mind of God. – Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, Volume 13, Page 264, 1870
What man or woman on the earth, what spirit in the spirit-world can say truthfully that I ever gave a wrong word of counsel, or a word of advice that could not be sanctioned by the heavens? – Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, Volume 12, Page 127, 1867
I am here to give this people, called Latter-day Saints, counsel to direct them in the path of life . . . . If there is an elder here, or any member of this Church, called the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, who can bring up the first idea, the first sentence that I have delivered to the people as counsel that is wrong, I really wish they would do it; but they cannot do it, for the simple reason that I have never given counsel that is wrong; that is the reason. – Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, Volume 16, Page 161, 1873
In my doctrinal teachings I have taught many things not written in any book, ancient or modern, and yet, notwithstanding the many things I have told the people, I have never looked into the Bible, Book of Mormon, or the Doctrine and Covenants, or any of our church works to see whether they agreed with them or not. When I have spoken by the power of God and the Holy Ghost, it is truth, it is scripture, and I have no fears but that it will agree with all that has been revealed. – Brigham Young, Deseret News Weekly, June 6, 1877
When did I ever teach anything wrong from this stand? . . . I never told you I was perfect; but there is no error in the revelation which I have taught. – Joseph Smith, Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, Page 368
I have kept several good, faithful, and efficient clerks in constant employ: they have accompanied me everywhere, and carefully kept my history, and they have written down what I have done, where I have been, and what I have said; therefore my enemies cannot charge me with any day, time, or place, but what I have written testimony to prove my actions; and my enemies cannot prove anything against me. – Joseph Smith, History of the Church, Volume 6, Page 409
The inspired words of our living prophets are also accepted as scripture. – Gospel Principles, Page 52, 1997
Scriptures: Words written and spoken by holy men of God when moved upon by the Holy Ghost. – Gospel Principles, Page 382, 1997
WHAT IS SCRIPTURE? When one of the brethren stands before a congregation of the people today, and the inspiration of the Lord is upon him, he speaks that which the Lord would have him speak. It is just as much scripture as anything you will find written in any of these records, and yet we call these the standard works of the Church. We depend, of course, upon the guidance of the brethren who are entitled to inspiration. – Joseph Fielding Smith, Doctrines of Salvation, Volume 1, Page 186, 1954
In my public teachings I never permit my mind to follow in any channel except that which the Spirit dictates to me, and this is the position we all occupy when we meet with the Saints. – Wilford Woodruff, Journal of Discourses, Volume 15, Page 275, 1873
And this is my ensample unto them, that they shall speak as they are moved upon by the Holy Ghost. And whatsoever they shall speak when moved upon by the Holy Ghost shall be scripture, shall be the will of the Lord, shall be the mind of the Lord, shall be the word of the Lord, shall be the voice of the Lord, and the power of God unto salvation. Behold, this is the promise of the Lord unto you, O ye my servants. – Joseph Smith, Doctrine and Covenants, Section 68:3-5, 1831
The inspired words of the President are not to be trifled with. All men are entitled to inspiration, and various men are entitled to revelation for their particular assignment. But only one man stands as the Lord's spokesman to the Church and the world, and he is the President of the Church. The words of all other men should be weighed against his inspired words. Though His prophet is mortal, God will not let him lead His Church astray. – Ezra Taft Benson, Teachings of Ezra Taft Benson, Page 140
The Lord will never permit me or any other man who stands as president of the Church to lead you astray. It is not in the program. It is not in the mind of God. – Wilford Woodruff, The Discourses of Wilford Woodruff, Pages 212-213
The Lord Almighty leads this Church, and he will never suffer you to be led astray if you are found doing your duty. You may go home and sleep as sweetly as a babe in its mother's arms, as to any danger of your leaders leading you astray, for if they should try to do so the Lord would quickly sweep them from the earth. – Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, Volume 9, Page 289, 1862
Mormon Prophet Ezra Taft Benson issued the Fourteen Fundamentals in Following the Prophet in 1980. The following are some of those fundamentals:
The prophet is the only man who speaks for the Lord in everything. . . . Did you hear what the Lord said about the words of the prophet? We are to "give heed unto all his words"—as if from the Lord's "own mouth."
The living prophet is more vital to us than the standard work. . . . Brother Brigham took the stand, and he took the Bible, and laid it down; he took the Book of Mormon, and laid it down; and he took the Book of Doctrine and Covenants, and laid it down before him, and he said: 'There is the written word of God to us, concerning the work of God from the beginning of the world, almost, to our day. And now,' said he, 'when compared with the living oracles those books are nothing to me; those books do not convey the word of God direct to us now, as do the words of a Prophet or a man bearing the Holy Priesthood in our day and generation. I would rather have the living oracles than all the writing in the books.' That was the course he pursued. When he was through, Brother Joseph said to the congregation: 'Brother Brigham has told you the word of the Lord, and he has told you the truth.' [in Conference Report, October 1897, pp. 18-19)
The prophet will never lead the Church astray. President Wilford Woodruff stated: "I say to Israel, The Lord will never permit me or any other man who stands as president of the Church to lead you astray. It is not in the program. It is not in the mind of God." (The Discourses of Wilford Woodruff, selected by G. Homer Durham [Salt Lake City: Bookcraft, 1946], pp. 212-213.)
The prophet does not have to say "Thus saith the Lord" to give us scripture. Sometimes there are those who haggle over words. They might say the prophet gave us counsel, but that we are not obligated to follow it unless he says it is a commandment. But the Lord says of the Prophet Joseph, "Thou shalt give heed unto all his words and commandments which he shall give unto you" (D&C 21:4).
The two groups who have the greatest difficulty in following the prophet are the proud who are learned and the proud who are rich. The learned may feel the prophet is only inspired when he agrees with them; otherwise, the prophet is just giving his opinion–speaking as a man. The rich may feel they have no need to take counsel of a lowly prophet.
For those savy Mormon apologists who think they've found a loophole and cite that the prophet must be moved by the Holy Ghost in order for his utterings to be considered Scripture, you have two problems:
Firstly, how do you determine which sermon was inspired and which was not? And since many of the quotes that modern Mormonism finds objectionable come from sermons where other parts of that same sermon are acceptable, how do you determine which parts of a sermon are acceptable and which parts are "just his opinion?" By what standard of measure do you determine when the Holy Ghost was inspiring the speaker, and when the Holy Ghost left him for a few moments (at which time the speaker provided uninspired objectionable information)?
Secondly, since the most recent or current prophet trumps the older, deceased prophets, then you have an impenetrable wall to scale. Mormon prophet Ezra Taft Benson said in 1980:
The prophet does not have to say "Thus saith the Lord" to give us scripture.
The prophet is the only man who speaks for the Lord in everything. . . . Did you hear what the Lord said about the words of the prophet? We are to "give heed unto all his words"—as if from the Lord's "own mouth."
These revelations were given after all those other remarks about having to be inspired were penned.
Beware of those who would pit the dead prophets against the living prophets, for the living prophets always take precedence. – Ezra Taft Benson, Teachings of Ezra Taft Benson, Page 136
Now that you know the truth, you will be better armed to deflect this spin from Mormon apologists–not using "anti-Mormon" literature–but by using the words of their own prophets.

Matthew 10:32. "Whoever, then, acknowledges me before people, I will acknowledge before my Father in heaven.
Without the acknowledgment from Jesus we will have to stand before God on our own. It is impossible for anyone to deem the self good enough to be in the presence of God. It is only through the shed blood of Jesus and His acknowledgment that God will deem us worthy to be in His presence. Our question is are we acknowledging Jesus before our fellow beings? We can and should acknowledge Him in several different ways. We acknowledge Him with our voice by what we say. We acknowledge Him by allowing the countenance of His Holy Spirit within us to shine through us in our facial expressions. We acknowledge Him through the way we relate with others. We acknowledge Him by our works. We cannot choose to acknowledge Him in just one of these ways and ignore Him in all the other ways. All the ways comprise a unit of truly a acknowledging we are His and He is our Lord and Savior. We can't choose to acknowledge Him on certain days and not on others. We either are consistently or we are liters. Let us be faithful in our acknowledgment of Jesus.

It isn't that i was shying away from doing this role.I have always done grey shades that usually heroines would avoid doing. Click next to find out more. We learnt that you were unhappy with the script primarily because you were concerned about the duration of your role as opposed to priyanka chopra was concerned about it keeping the experience of kites in mind.In this film, the outcome was different then the script narrated to me.But that was unique director and distinctive film. Rakesh roshan, the movie representative of krrish 3, said he was not part of kites and he was hardly needed for it.But krrish 3 is his film and he falls short of a reason to do the same. I was convinced that he's a man of his word, and he pandora charms:http://www.1pr.us/ did so what he had promised me. You look very like the jennifer aniston of tomb raider or anne hathway as the catwoman in batman is very flattering.We all saw dark night rises and we were amazed that the type of anne hathway is so much like my character. But it www.1pr.us is fact that dark night rises came out in 2012, while we had started performing on this film in 2011.So we had no clue over it.

The script was my guide and i tried it. Were you associated that you were playing second lead to priyanka chopra? It sounds very frustrating to call me a second lead.It makes me feel that i do nothing good to deserve something good in life. She is not a run-Of-The-Mill girl;She is a mutant and is an essential part of the film.This is never a two heroine film.We are really not both fighting for the boy. But we do see you romancing hrithik in the promos is various Pandora 2014 kind of love story and it is tricky.I am glad that many people came up with such songs.Practically no other way of promoting films in india than having a song, so you show a mutant and a superhero romance additional.

CD4+ T cell responses have been shown to be protective in many respiratory virus infections. In the respiratory tract, CD4+ T cells include cells in the airway and parenchyma and cells adhering to the pulmonary vasculature. Here we discuss in detail the methods that are useful for characterizing CD4+ T cells in different anatomic locations in mouse lungs.
Keywords: Memory CD4+ T cell, Lung, Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, Intranasal/intravascular antibody labeling, Flow cytometry
To distinguish memory T cells in the circulation and tissues, a method for intravascular staining of T cells has been developed (Anderson et al., 2012). This method has been widely used to define memory T cells in many organs and tissues, including lungs, spleens and intestines. However, memory T cells in the respiratory tract are located in three unique anatomic locations, i.e., airway, parenchyma and pulmonary vasculature. Intravascular staining cannot distinguish cells in the airway and parenchyma, since they are both isolated from the circulation and intravascularly-administered antibodies will not stain these two populations. We designed a simultaneous intranasal/intravascular antibody labeling assay that can label and distinguish cells in all three locations using minimal amount of antibodies.
