A expressão “Face your pockets!” é um trocadilho que tanto pode significar “enfrente seus bolsos” como “dê um rosto ao seu bolso”.

Hillary Clinton announced on Wednesday that she would be reaching into her own fortune to keep their campaign going. Senator Clinton announced that she would be lending her campaign $5 million dollars and that figure could get larger. The Clinton campaign was able to move that money into their campaign last month but did not tell the public until after Super Tuesday. Worried what voters might think of her campaign after hearing they could not keep up with the enormous figures that Barack Obama has been able to raise, kept it a convenient secret until Wednesday. Clinton has been able to raise over $100 million dollars so far in this campaign and this move came as more than a surprise to donors. Senator Clinton said that she moved the money, "because I believe very st

The inventor who claims to have developed the first PDA filed a slew of lawsuits Monday, including an action accusing Apple and iPhone partner AT&T of infringing on his patents with the device's much-heralded Visual Voicemail feature. Klausner Technologies is seeking both damages and future royalties that it estimates amount to as much as $360 million. Klausner Technologies was founded by Judah Klausner, who the firm describes as inventor of the PDA and electronic organizer.
I’ll start by suggesting that if you can scrounge up the money, you should avoid the aluminum dish reflector type work lights that lots of beginners seem to use. They will work though, if needs be. I’ve got three lists here, the first is setting up a workable system for under $1500 USD, the second is setting up a truly cheap system for under $750 USD, and the third list is … scary … for a miniscule 250 bucks.
I strongly recommend you look at continuous lighting solutions.
Strobes offer you unparalleled flexibility and a color, quality and power of light that simply goes unmatched (for the price… HMIs are beautiful too, but cost more even than strobe systems).
If you can find $1500 USD to work with then the answer is pretty simple: go Lowel. A Lowel Tota/Omni Core kit comes with three decent lamps with a lot of varied usage. They will work, no matter how much people fade them.

Let’s face it: for guys, cell phones go in pockets (women have purses). Having them clipped to your belt looks and feels awkward. But most cell phones, while they look cool, aren’t designed for pockets.
IdeaSpark*: Design a cell phone specifically for the front pant pocket. This means:
The phone body is slightly curved to hug the thigh and limit protruding edges and corners.
Have curves all around the edges (like the pictured phone, called the Au Infobar, via Core77), also to limit pant bulge.
Make the shell silicone or rubber, for softness, and for more friction to prevent sliding around in the pocket.
The shape of the cellphone would be designed to fit in the pocket the same orientation everytime (i.e. with the top facing down, so when pulling it out of the pocket, it is ready to use).
A small cord or tab on the bottom of the phone, which will be easy to grab when you reach into your pocket.

There are iPhones in 1 million pockets 74 days after the launch of the device. At least this is what has been announced by Apple. Not a bad result if we recall that it took two years to reach the same mark with iPod, which is an extremely popular product itself.At a glance everything is fine with iPhone. The device (the 8 GB model) has become $200 cheaper; the 4 GB model is already out of production and the 16 GB model can be seen on the horizon. Apple is ready for the upcoming holiday season, though there will be no 3G enabled iPhone this year.

Lead Paint is back in the news...... but this time it is not real estate! Its the safety of our children that is at risk! Some facts on lead paint from the real estate side:If your home was built before 1978, your child could be at risk for lead poisoning from the lead paint. However, research found that homes built prior to 1960 have the most lead paint. About 24 million housing units still have deteriorated lead paint, and elevated levels of lead-contaminated house dust. Lead can harm your child's brain, causing lifelong learning and behavior problemsAlmost one million children under age six (6) in the US suffer from lead poisoningChildren under age six are most at risk. When a pregnant woman is exposed to lead, it can harm her unborn baby.And now we are finding out that one of the leading toy companies has a massive recall of toys "made in china" for having dangerous amount of lead in the toys.Lead dust is invisible and is released from paint when it is pee
GLOBAL warming is by nature a big-enough problem to create the kind of necessity that could be mother, father and midwife to invention. And plenty of big ideas are out there to address it, some that may even lead to substantial enterprises much as our military needs have.
But the ideas being backed in the United States are things like biofuels and carbon-emissions trading. These are good approaches, but they may not hold much potential for actually staving off climate change. James E. Lovelock, a British scientist whose 2006 book, “The Revenge of Gaia,” argued that most of humankind is doomed, does not think much of renewable energy.
At a panel on climate change at the University of Cambridge this summer, Mr. Lovelock was asked what would be the most effective action people could take. Because humans and their pets and livestock produce about a quarter of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, he said, “just stop breathing.”
Now there’s a fine idea.
But even a gloom-and-doomer

President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono has acknowledged that he already has the names of 11 candidates who will replace several ministers in the cabinet in the near future.The candidates include those suggested by political parties.“I'm saying this literally, 10 or 11 names have been proposed to replace the current ministers. The suggestions were from political parties and other parties,” President Yudhoyono told reporters in Bogor, yesterday (15/4). One of Golkar Party Chairpersons, Priyo Budi Santoso, denied that his party had recommended some names to the President.A Tempo source who attended the consultation meeting however said the opposite.According to the source, the names of possible new minister include Muladi, Andi Mattalata, Theo L. Sambuaga, Burhanuddin Napitupulu, Tadjuddin Noer Said and Firman Subagyo.

From Financial ExpressAlmost two years after a modest currency revaluation, China is still thumbing its nose at U.S. demands for big gains in the yuan. Last week, officials in Beijing seemed to yawn as Charles Schumer, a U.S. senator pushing for tariffs on Chinese imports, predicted that a new measure aimed at forcing China to boost the yuan will pass Congress by next year.The U.S. also imposed tariffs on imports of Chinese coated paper. China's response was summed up by central bank researcher Tang Xu who said a stronger currency alone won't solve U.S. trade disputes. Traders were equally unmoved by the U.S. action.In Japan, meanwhile, neither the government nor investors seemed concerned about a U.S. senator's proposal to require Asia's biggest economy to stop holding down the yen. ``It's time for our government to hold Japan accountable for what amounts to illegal trade subsidies,'' Michigan Democratic Senator Debbie Stabenow said last week. What gives? You would expect the U
Just to change things up, I think I'll just get to the point. Cheap-chic powerhouse H&M have made Australian beauty Kylie Minogue the muse and face of their new beachwear line called"H&M Love Kylie" (that sounds like the opening of a press release). The super cute line is going to be out mid-may and will contain 15 different bohemian but ultra beachy pieces. Now I have to say, I do truly love Kylie Minogue not only because she's really pretty but because she had to fight breast cancer in the public eye. She did it so gracefully and she looks just as amazing as she always has. In all honesty, I will pretty much do anything to support breast cancer because my aunt died of breast cancer when I was little. I'm the person that only buys the pink batteries because part of the profit goes to breast cancer and if there aren't any pink batteries available I will go without until there are. The thing is, none of the profit from the H&M line is going to any breast cancer charities, but th

I made a pair of pants not long ago and started thinking about pockets. Does anyone use them? Side pockets just make your hips look wider. Hip pockets just make your rear end look larger. If you wear knit tops untucked, as I most often do, pockets just add lumps and bumps. How many of you just leave off the pockets?
The same is true of fly fronts - just another lump under the knit. Also, why do they ever put the zippers in the center back on pants and skirts I can't be the only person who enjoys having flesh covering my spine. How many of you put the zipper on the side?Last post by Karla Kizer at Sun 19 Aug 2007 08:43:21 PM Total posts: 11
