I must say I'm extremely surprised by all of the negative reviews because I has a wonderful experience here! The staff was all very sweet and helpful. We discussed budget before I tried dresses on and the staff only pulled dresses within my budget (I'm on a tight budget). In fact, she pulled dresses that were under my budget so I could afford to have alterations and a headpiece. I have been on several bridal dress appointments with other brides to be and I can safely say this was by far the best service I have seen.
Worst Experience – I went for an appointment yesterday, and as soon as she heard my budget, the appointment was over. She argued with me. I told her lace and A-line, she pulled mermaid and not a single thing with lace on it. After we got back to the dressing room, I saw a dress and asked her if it was out of my budget, and it was, by almost $3,000. She told me I needed to cut back on somethings in my wedding to get that dress. I told her it was not worth having a good dress if I don't have any pictures of it, and she said what's the point of having good pictures of a dress thats second best?
I left immediately. I went and bought a dress that there is no comparison for, and it was under my budget by $1000.
Not worth it – I went here because I wanted a simple Nicole Miller Dress. During the appointment the lady just went through the steps and showed little interest in my appointment.
I am guessing because I did not care to spend a lot of money on a dress and gave her a small budget.
She rushed me through the appointment I tried on three dresses that were pretty much the same. I wanted to try on more but she said she had nothing else in the style and budget I had given her then she told me she had another appointment and I needed to make up my mind if I wanted the dress or not.
I bought one dress because it did look really good on me and was the dress I originally wanted when I went into the shop. I have grown to dislike it because it was such an unpleasant experience.
I would recommend to ANYONE! – I just happened to fall into this place just to look with my Aunt and cousins running some errands. I did not have an appointment and they happened to be able to fit me in. The staff was EXTREMELY accommodating and every single one of them was helpful! The woman who aided me picked up very quickly on my style and what I wanted, I believe her name is Dalhia or something. She said she had been doing this for 17 years. She stayed within my price range and steered me clear of dresses that I could fall in love with but not afford . She never pushed me to buy, and stood back when it was time for me to decide. I felt like "Pretty Woman", minus the whole hooker thing. They attended to me like a princess. I could see though how if you did not want that "attending" how it would seem like they were hovering. But, I felt like that is what a bridal assistant should do is be attentive. In wedding dress experience, you get what you pay for. Dress AND service. I feel as if I got both. I did not have my mother there and was upset that I found THE DRESS without her. But she was very understanding and even helped the situation with some champagne! And no, I just had one glass, I did not purchase my dress drunk. I don't know what all these posts are talking about, I had an EXTREMELY good experience and found my dress in just 4 dresses. I was shocked when getting on here and reading these reviews. I'm starting to wonder though if the people who did not have a good experience just didn't have the money for what they want. I guess everyone likes what they like, but I would say DON'T go here if you DON'T want to be waited on hand and foot. I would recommend this place to anyone!
I should have looked at reviews before I made a HUGE mistake – I ordered my bridesmaid dress through JJ Kelly. My sister is getting married in just a few weeks, and my dress was ordered 5 months ago. I have called them a few times to check on the status of the dress, and to get a definitive arrival date. I have explained to them SEVERAL times that I live in Alaska, and so I need the dress as fast as possible, because it has to be shipped to me for alterations before the wedding. Every time I spoke with someone, I was promised that my dress would be delivered on June 1. I was a little surprised that I did not recieve a call from them on the 1st telling me that my dress was in, so I could have my sister pick it up, and put it in the mail for me. I gave them a call the next day to see what was going on. I was told that my dress would be in "within a few days." While it was a bit inconvenient, I didn't worry too much and figured it would be in soon. It is now nearly 2 weeks later and I have been told that it could take ANOTHER 2 weeks before my dress will arrive there. This is BEYOND unacceptable. I paid extra money so the dress would be in by June 1, and now I have to sit here and wait while they take their sweet time. After reading reviews on here, I should have just bought a plane ticket to Seattle and bought my dress there. It would have been significantly more expensive, but at least I'd have my dress.
*Update- the dress finally came in today ( 5 days after it was "overnighted") The lady at the desk was BEYOND rude to my sister, and refused to take ANYTHING off of the price of the dress. This place is RUDE, unprofessional and only care about the bottom line: their pockets.
Must Read!! – Absolutely appalled at the behavior of the bridal consultants at this boutique! Upon my arrival at this location I was told that they would be leaving at 6 promptly, even if I was not finished deciding on my purchase. While I was in the dressing room I was told that "if this dress doesn't fit you will have to lay off the sweets", I was in shock and of course could not think of what I should say. Not that it should matter if I was a bigger person or not, but I was trying on and fitting into size 8 dresses! In returning to the dressing room after showing the dress to my family, the consultant told me she wanted to go home. After this shock my family and I were rushed out of the boutique because it was 6 and time to leave. Don't waste your time going to this bridal boutique. Gladly I did purchase my gown, a Kenneth Pool, from Meg Guess and would recommend them to everyone!!
I had a VERY positive experience here!!! – I was actually there today. I was greeted by a very unfriendly older woman with dark hair and bangs.
She said Jessica would be helping me today. Jessica was great! She was young and stylish. She was eager to help me stay within my price range. She never pushed me onto more expensive dresses. She got excited with me and my bridesmaids when I tried on each dress. Not one moment was she rude or snobby. I went in with the intention to try on Nicole Miller dresses and then buy one online. The price of the NM dress I found was reasonable. I bought it right then and there. I was not pressured to have it altered there and I took it home with me.
I had a blast and so did my bridesmaids! I would recommend JJ Kelly to anyone, but I would suggest you ask for Jessica. The other ladies seemed very rude and grumpy.
A nice man, I think his name was Patrick, helped Jessica check me out and he carried my dress to the car through the sleet and snow in his suit and dress shoes! I was wearing snow boots. Now THAT'S service! He was extremely personable as well.
The store is outdated, but the merchandise is not. I suggest that you go check it out if you want to find the dress of your dreams. Happy shopping!
BEWARE!!!! DO NOT GO HERE!!!!!!!! – I am glad to see I am not the only one who had an awful experience with this dress store. The staff is rude... I even had Deliah who I've noticed has been mentioned in sveral of the reviews... She was not the problem, it was the two owners who lurk in her shadows that cause all the grief. Unfortunately I ordered a dress form this store, but when I went to pick it up they didn't even have it in a bag. I was then told I could purchase a bag for $10. I was in shock! Where was the bag or shall I say box it was shipped to the store in?????
If you want to avoid added stress then do not go here!!!!!!Anyone can tell that the only positive reviews written have obviously been posted by the store itself.
Trust the honest brides who have been burned by these people, do not go here it is not worth your time.
Thank you J.J. Kelly's! – I just want to thank everyone at J.J. Kelly's for everything you have done over the past year! I always felt so welcome every time I came into the store. You all took such great care of me!! Thank you all for your thoughtfulness and for making my wedding planning such a joyful experience!!
Excellent Experience – After reading the unfavorable reviews, I have to say these seem fabricated or over exaggerated. My wife purchased her gorgeous wedding gown, veil, bridesmaids, invitations and tuxedos. All purchases were handled with professionalism and class. Our special orders came in on time and their expert seamstresses took care of my bride with all her concerns. Our wedding day was perfect and my bride looked fabulous.

1 10 sided die
|Steve Jackson Games
|Stock Number
|0.05 lbs
Back in the Dark Ages, we made a set of ten-sided Munchkin Dice and they were awesome. Alas, they were expensive to make, so we regretfully let them go out of print. (We did reprint the cards as Munchkin Reloaded!)
Now, thanks to our friends at Pegasus Spiele, we're pleased to be able to offer six NEW Munchkin Dice. We have limited quantities of each color, and once they're gone, it's very unlikely that there will be any more -- EVER.
Each ten-sided die has the Munchkin head in place of the "10" space, so when you win the game, everyone will know that you are the ultimate Munchkin! And, sure, you can use these in place of the ten-siders in your other games, too.

49th season of Tech Players kicks off with Robert Harling's Steel MagnoliasThe 49th season of the Tech Players kicks off with this month's production of Robert Harling's popular comedy Steel Magnolias.
The play explores the universal value of friendships through the interaction of six female characters who come together in the setting of their local beauty shop, and the TTU production consists of both new and veteran actresses who come from both the university and the community.
"In recent years, our casts have been predominantly made up of students, but it's great for those young actors to work with more seasoned performers, and this play provides the perfect mix," said Mark Creter, artistic director of the Backdoor Playhouse.
Just because the cast is all female, though, doesn't mean Steel Magnolias is just for a female audience, Creter said. He thinks its wide popularity will appeal to virtually everyone.
"This show is definitely one you can bring the whole family to see," he said. "In fact, I've found that I completely relate to the characters and the way they use their sense of humor to overcome life's tragedies. I think I appreciate the play even more after discovering that connection."
The 49th season of the Backdoor Playhouse also introduces new admission rates that could attract higher numbers of students, who for the first time ever can get in free simply by showing their university identification cards.
"What a director wants to see more than anything is his show playing to a packed house every night, and being able to provide quality plays to students at no charge will help make that possible," he said.
The show — presented in partnership with the TTU English department and produced in arrangement with Dramatists Play Service — begins at 8 p.m. on Sept. 18, 19, 20, 23, 26 and 27 at the Backdoor Playhouse, located at the rear of the Jere Whitson Building. It begins at 10 p.m. on Sept. 22 and 25.
Tickets for the show, a Center Stage event, are $8 for general admission, $6 for senior citizens, $4 for non-TTU students and $3 for employees at TTU Employee Appreciation Night on Tuesday, Sept. 23.
For more information, call the Backdoor Playhouse box office at 372-6595.

Like some others I am not very light handed when it comes to routing. I had sanded my instrument ready for the paint job and routed with this bit for the binding and when I got through I noticed a fairly deep ring and dark burn marks all around the instrument which I had to sand out which was no easy task. It really needs a bearing on the shaft to eliminate this.
Worked perfectly in my dremel and cut the binding channel thickness as advertised. Unfortunately it was not until halfway through routing that i noticed the guide at the bottom leaving a groove in my body under the channel. Upon inspection i found the shaft slightly bent when rotating in the dremel causing a warp in the spin. Cuts great but QC for these should have better inspection.
This router bit took all the hassle and guess work out of preparation for binding installation. Great product.
I used it for building 3 les paul replica (mahogany and walnut). After sanded the sides smooth, I've made the binding channel on the lowest speed possible. The bit leaves deep marks, sometimes burned in. I won't use it anymore, be careful with that.
I bought this bit to cut new channels, or clean old channels, on gibson style guitars. It works perfectly on fingerboards or bodies for that purpose. The tiny mark left by the pilot tip comes out in finish sanding. Cutting binding channels is a job for a Dremmel sized tool, not an industrial router, so I'd like to see more of these type bits. I'd especially like to see a piloted bit for the "stepped" laminated bindings seen on customs. Especially if one is building or restoring one of those bound headstocks.
Very good bit for doing those awkward ledges on small instruments or in confined areas.
Great idea here, but I think it could use a tweak. While the bit does a good job of cutting the channel in very tight turns, it leaves a mark where the pilot guide comes in contact with the side of the instrument. It's even visible (very faintly) in the product photo. If it were possible to modify the bit by adding a free rolling pilot, that would be fantastic.

Weihenmayer's summit hike, on Saturday, Aug. 10, is open to all. "Often, we are forced to throw out the expectations of others and rise to the level of our own internal potential," says Weihenmayer, who will lead hikes with Jordan Romero.
Adaptive road biking clinics take place, in morning and afternoon sessions, on Friday, Aug. 9, with cycling instructors providing training, supervision and cycling and safety equipment. A variety of adaptive cycles, including upright, recumbent, hand-powered and pedal-powered, as well as two- and three-wheeled options, will be available; the level of participation is based on prior cycling experience. Those with more experience and higher levels of physical fitness can participate in the 30-mile Handcycle Road Ride on August 10 (open to any type of road bike). Other sports clinics include downhill 4-cross biking, fly fishing on the San Miguel River, geocaching, kayaking and canoeing, scuba diving, golf, tennis, horseback riding, rock climbing, sailing and skateboarding.

Sinise and the Lt. Dan Band will play at JSU Stadium to raise money for Marine Sgt. Ben Tomlinson, a Jacksonville resident who was paralyzed in 2010 while fighting in Afghanistan. Together with the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, a New York-based 9/11 charity, the Gary Sinise Foundation is contributing to the project, dubbed "Operation Ben." With local sponsors, including Jacksonville State University, the two national non-profit organizations are collecting money through the concert to build Tomlinson a "smart home," with features to accommodate his disabilities.
The band is named for the character of the wounded veteran Lt. Dan Taylor, who Sinise portrayed in the 1994 film "Forrest Gump."
Tomlinson was selected for the project by the organizations for their "Building for America's Bravest" program, which exists to provide homes to veterans whose mobility has been severely limited due to service.
Tomlinson's new home will cost $400,000 and enable him to live independently for the first time since he returned to Jacksonville. The home will have special automated features to accommodate Tomlinson, who uses a wheelchair and has limited control of his upper body because of his injuries.
For example, with the touch of an iPad, the home's countertop, stove top and cabinets will lower for easy use.
Since a March 20 press conference during which Operation Ben was announced, local partners have stepped up to help. Among them is AOD Federal Credit Union, which provided a $50,000 corporate sponsorship donation on April 10.
"The board of directors was very moved by the story of Ben Tomlinson and they felt that he was a local veteran who has earned the right to have a smart home," said Richard Simonton, president and CEO of the Credit Union. "We were willing to support that effort in any way we can."
This week the fundraising effort received another boost when an anonymous donor gave $50,000 in matching funds to Operation Ben. For every dollar spent on a Lt. Dan Band ticket for this weekend's event, the donor will give a dollar until the $50,000 mark is met.
Ticket prices for the performance on Sunday at 6 p.m. range from $25 to $50. They can be purchased at www.operationben.com.
Tickets are also available for purchase at AOD Federal Credit Union, 1060 JD&L Drive SW, Jacksonville and at JSU Stadium Saturday and Sunday between 10 a.m. and 8 p.m., according to a release from JSU.

This IDC study starts IDC's annual "predictions season" with a wide-angle look at the most strategic trends and events for 2013. The most important trends and events in 2013 will cluster around what IDC calls the "3rd Platform" for IT industry growth and innovation — built on mobile devices, cloud services, social technologies, and Big Data, as well as the emerging high-value industry solutions built on top of them, and the rising vendors (e.g., service providers and industry PaaS providers) and customers (e.g., consumers, SMBs, line-of-business executives, and emerging market customers) that will play leading roles in much of the next eight years' growth.
According to IDC Chief Analyst Frank Gens, "There will be much greater urgency in 2013 as the market moves way past the 'exploration' stage to full-blown high-stakes competition. Vendors' ability (or inability) to compete on the 3rd Platform right now — even at the risk of cannibalizing their own 2nd Platform franchises — will reorder leadership ranks within the IT market and, ultimately, every industry that uses IT."

Drew dropped out of high school in 11th grade.
Drew: It's the best time of my life - it's not traumatic at all. I don't think I've ever been happier. It's like the older I get, the better I get. Gravity and wrinkles are fine with me. They're a small price to pay for the new wisdom inside my head and my heart. "If my breasts fall down to the floor and everything starts to sag and becomes hideous and gross, I won't worry.
Drew: I once got dumped by a guy twice! The second time I was like, 'Really? Are you sure now?'
Drew: (about being in ET at age seven) One day I was a little girl, and the next day, I was mobbed by people who wanted me to sign my autograph or pose for pictures. Some of them just wanted to touch me. It was crazy. I was this 7-year-old who was expected to be going on a mature 29.
Drew: I have mainly very positive things I like to feel about my parents. I think I inherited my mother's incredible spirit and enthusiasm for life, her humour, her passion for music. Even though we don't see each other very much.
Drew: I've never really understood how I should feel or behave in a relationship... I didn't have the kind of childhood or family life that would have given me any perspective on what a happy home life or relationship would feel like. My father was literally out of his mind and my mother was more like a friend than a real mom to me. She would take me out to clubs and I wound up feeling like part of this very unreal kind of world, although that was the only world I ever knew growing up.
Drew: (revealing her top dating tip) The only fundamental rule for me is to just be yourself. Let your freak-flag fly, and if someone doesn't get you, move on.
Drew: I'm a sexual, free, f***ing nudist little bird running around and a wood nymph when it comes to sexuality.
Drew: I am a yin and a yang Piscean. I'm an extremist, I'm a polarity. No wonder I'm a schizophrenic.
Drew: My mom is an interesting character. She's well-read, lived in amazing times, has great stories... but when you're a kid, you don't want your mother to be that person. You don't want to hear that Mick Jagger's in the bedroom.
Drew: If I die before my cat, I want a little of my ashes put in his food so I can live inside him.
Drew: When you've been locked up in a mental institution, people are going to ask questions. It was OK, because I didn't have to act perfect all the time.
Drew: If you're going to go through hell... I suggest you come back learning something.
Drew: I believe that everything happens for a reason, but I think it's important to seek out that reason - that's how we learn.
Drew: Do I like women sexually? Yeah, I do. Totally. I have always considered myself bisexual. I love a woman's body. I think that a woman and a woman together are beautiful, just as a man and a woman together are beautiful. Being with a woman is like experiencing your own body through someone else...I totally love it.
Drew: Kissing - and I mean like, yummy, smacking kissing - is the most delicious, most beautiful and passionate thing that two people can do, bar none. Better than sex, hands down.
Drew: I know certain actors are totally screwed up on drugs, yet it gets covered up. Why wasn't I excused for 'exhaustion' or 'the flu'?
Drew: I never regret anything. Because every little detail of your life is what made you into who you are in the end.

School bus fare activists query council's sums (From The Oxford Times)

School bus fare activists query council's sums
6:40am Tuesday 10th December 2013 in News
CLAIMS that changes to school bus services will save up to £2m have been challenged by campaigners, backed up by an academic and finance specialist.
Oxon School Bus Action Group has disputed claims by Oxfordshire County Council that proposals to charge some parents for school buses would save between £1m and £2m.
The group claims analysis by Oxford University Professor Angus Wilkinson and former council accountant Chris Fyfe suggests actual savings could be as low as £250,000 a year.
The group also claims parents will be forced to play an admissions lottery and that the proposals will damage the county's economy and increase traffic.
OSBAG co-ordinator Sue Moon said: "OCC's single objective with these proposals is to save money.
"Our forensic analysis makes a mockery of their claims of £1m to £2m savings."
County council spokesman Owen Morton said: "If people have feedback to give, we would urge them to respond to the online consultation.
"As we have said before, the exact savings would depend on the pattern of parental choices made following any change to the policy.
"Anyone who would like to find out more or discuss the proposals directly with our officers is encouraged to attend one of the remaining public meetings."

Hartford >Restaurants >
Cafes >The Brickyard Cafe
113 Allyn St, Hartford, CT | Directions 0610341.768372 -72.678688
Thu-Sat 8pm-1am
Neighborhoods: Downtown
Credit Card Fraud – I would like to warn the customers of the Brickyard Club, not to use your credit card at this venue. I am from Philadelphia and this was my first time at this location. The bartender criminally added a non-authorized amount onto my charge after I left. I am currently filing a formal complaint with the FTC. Even though it was a small amount, $10, I am sure this is not the first time this has happened, and this will not stop until someone does something about it.
One of Hartford's favorite night spots, this cafe is really a sports bar and dance club in one. – The Scene
Brickyard Cafe has something for everyone. Whether you're happily single or searching, get your groove on as the second-floor club thunders with DJ-mixed music and white-hot light shows.
The Draw
Jello shots are a perennial favorite, but catch one of the bartender's ice luges if you can. During the summer, patrons can cool off with frozen cocktail specials on Fat Tuesdays, served Cancun-style on the open-air patio. Sports nuts will love the cafe's 27 televisions, arcades, pool tables and basketball hoop. There's even a virtual baseball simulator.

What a great week.
It started out a little slow...I found myself getting bored with my exercises. So I did some research on Monday night and mixed it up a bit! Glad I did because I picked up pace again by Wednesday and felt re-focused. Oh AND I was super sore this week from weight lifting. Loved it. I guess with the new exercises, I was working different muscle groups.
I felt like the last few weeks, I wasn't seeing great abs/glutes results. So, I did one extra exercise for my butt and abs and I really think I got the ground rumbling doing that this week. I know that more isn't always more, but in my case, I believe I need more abs/glutes work. Mostly because most of my fat is in my mid section and butt.
What I'm proud of this week...My BOOTY! It's slowly tightening up and I'm losing that cottage cheese a little bit at a time! Also, my midsection "tire" is slowly deflating! But I have to admit...It is hard seeing and realizing that I'm going to have a lot of extra stretched out tummy skin when I reach my goals from being pregnant with the kiddos. it's amazing how much skin is already starting to bunch up below my belly button! But I'd rather have stretched out skin that sags then fat! It really is exciting to see the change happening though, especially when you compare my day 1 pic. I just look SICK back then. It's hard to believe that was me just 7 weeks ago! So onto week 8 I go...Still feeling motivated and focused! Thanks for all the encouragement and support BFL peeps. I really appreciate it!!
Woohoo! You go girl! Just love hearing the excitement in a persons words and the happy glint in their eyes!
Not sure why the comparison pics didn't post, SO I edited the post and added it. :)
Thanks so much Aussie, Means a lot to me!
Amazing!!!! You look fantastic! You must feel like a million bucks:-)
You have quickly become a leader in our community. I love seeing your weekly progress pictures because your progress is truly amazing. You can tell that your brimming with confidence. Keep up the amazing work on yourself and being such a supportive member of others in forum.
Great work so far! Your hard work and motivation is really showing. You are doing awesome. Thanks for keeping us updated. You are a true inspiration.
Thank you everyone. I am starting to feel a lot of excitement seeing the weight come off! Thanks so much for your compliments...I couldn't do it the way I've done it without a support system like the one that the BFL community has provided me!
you look phenominal, keep it going
WOw, great work and positive attitude, Keep Moving FOrward and I am sure you will be even more pleased. Your progress is inspiring to all of us out here. BFL all the way!!
Nice work! Keep it up!
Awesome progress!! Keep going..... you are melting
HOLY HELL! You are on FIRE!!! Sizzling and sparking all over! Heck I don't even know you, and I just want to squeeze your neck! (as Champ Laurie Deemer would say) and tell you how amazing you are and how much more amazing the next weeks coming will be!!
BANG THE DRUMS!! THIS is what it's all about! : )
On a side note, here's a little fun to add to your trips to the BR. Vary your leg stance each time you go in, and do minimum 15 *** to grass squats, with a real squeeze and thrust at the top. Those squats will do magic on that boootay that you are working on! ;) not to mention your hams, and depending on the stance, your quads.
OH MY I can't wait to see the end of 12 weeks for you!
HAHAHAHA! Legsy, I don't even know you and I already love you! hahaha. Your comment was just awesome! What a great tip for those booty squats! Today was lower body day for me and I did try something similar actually! I did sumo squats heels inward legs spread just past shoulders 12,10,8,6 reps, varying weight and then I did regular squats, heel facing behind me shoulder width apart and I held the weight between my legs as I squat 12,10,8,6 varying weight and.... HOLY SMOKES, I am feeling it! I really like that! ;)
Thank you SO MUCH for the encouragement and the good laugh! I hope my results are amazing at 12 weeks too!
Brilliant theorchild33!
You are on the right path for sure! I have always had trouble with leg development (thus the name...ug). Its the last place I lose excess, and the first area it shows up again. They are still my "project", and in time, ever so slowly, the muscles will be more than the layers of fat.
Be aware of what area of your legs ache tomorrow, from the squat aftermath. By doing that, you can then choose a different stance (say, feet together) for the following days trips to the BR! Remember that squeeze! ;) If you are using a sitting or laying leg press machine, if you keep your feet together, and just turn them slightly to the left, or right to do the press, you will not only engage your quads, but your butt too - in a way you may not have worked it before. (You will feel it more in the top positioned leg) Im all over moves that incorporate more than just one muscle. Those happy squats, and doing presses like the above the odd LBWO day will give you more bang for your buck. I used to spend hours on sites that showed different ways to do UBWO and LBWO. It became a healthy obsessoin in ways. :/
Pay attention to your food though - you may find yourself becoming hungrier faster on leg day. I always did....Those are big muscles to feed! and they need proper fuel around the time you workout to repair themselves. If you are not eating correctly to aide in your goals of building muscle, your body will actually use the already stored protein in it to survive! You dont want that! LOL.
OK, enough lecturing...I have no doubt you are focused, and ready to make this happen. I am proud of you!!!

Reno >Beauty > Tangerine & Aveda Lifestyle
13979 S Virginia St Ste 506, Reno, NV | Directions 8951139.404987 -119.747698
Mon 9:00-21:00, Tue 9:00-21:00, Wed 9:00-21:00, Thu 9:00-21:00, Fri 9:00-21:00, Sat 8:00-9:00, Sun 10:00-18:00
I have been going to Tangerine Aveda since I moved here from Colorado over three years ago. I have gone to 4 different stylists there, and have found each one to be very professional, knowledgeable, and talented. Currently, Lauren is my stylist. She is great. She is always cheerful and upbeat. She listens and goes out of her way to give me the best hair service possible. My highlighting issues can be trying as it is difficult to get my hair where I want it to be, but Lauren has been able to work with my hair and get the color right. I would recommend her, as well as Stephanie to anyone.
I love the fragrance of eucalyptus/mint as soon as I walk through the door...I know that I'm in for some well deserved pampering! I've had haircuts, facials and massages at Aveda salons in both Reno and San Francisco. Tangerine Aveda is definitely my favorite! I need to make time to visit more often.
Tangerine STILL receives five stars from me...... I have returned to Tangerine twice since my initial review back in January and am still tickled pink with their staff's professionalism, the quality of the work that they do (makeup, hair, facials and product knowledge) and plan to return as often as possible.
I've been going to Tangerine for almost a year now and I love it! After a myriad of meh to horrid haircuts in Tahoe and Reno I can 't tell you how happy I am to be stoked on my not so easy to deal with curly hair. I love my stylist, Renee, and the whole staff is very welcoming and nice. I enjoy my visits and for the first time in my life, I actually get my hair cut on a regular basis...no more waiting for my hair to become a huge unmanageable poofball! I also LOVE Aveda products now..I'm addicted. I have my husband loving it too (though he wasn't so happy at the price). Last time I was in they offered a free make-up consultation and I found yet another product I am in love with. Maybe its not the cheapest, but I find that the value is there...both for the quality of service and hair styling, but also with the products. My hair looks the best it ever has...and at about half the price I would've ended up paying when I lived in San Francisco. I won't go anywhere else as long as I stay in Reno. I think I need to explore the spa side of Tangerine next!
This is in the new mall at the end of 431 at 395. I went here and got an excellent hair cut and took home some great Aveda products. Amanda was my cutter and she listened to exactly what I wanted and did it! I have yet to get colored here or have spa services, but the other clientelle had their LV bags and giant diamonds so I assume they do a good job!
I love this place! They have the best facials in town. I've been seeing Stephanie for over two years now, and I am always satisfied with her work. It is very clean, service is superb, they have complimentry bevrages and snacks and even though it's on the pricey side, I feel it's worth it. They also sell aveda products, and I am a big fan of their lipgloss line.
I like getting my hair cut here. It's a stylish and energetic place. Lindy's willing to be creative, and appropriate, when I tell her I want something different but I don't know what it is.
Tangerine is great! I see Kristy and she always does a beautiful job on my hair color and cut. Terra has shaped my brows a few times and they always look fantastic, and I have crazy thick brows. The salon is relaxing and earthy. Only one star shy of 5 due to a sometimes surly receptionist. Everyone else is stellar!
A wonderful treat for those days when you need an escape. The staff is always friendly and helpful. They greet you upfront and offer you a beverage right off the bat. I've experienced their facials and hair treatments, both are wonderful (I'm a little biased because I love Aveda products). The staff is also helpful at suggesting ways to address problem areas such as when I first moved to Reno and my skin kept drying out - they made several recommendations and not just on their products but what I should look for in my moisturizer, etc if I chose to buy something else. I thought this was wonderful especially since I'd never had dry skin before coming from the humid Southeast. Since I know Aveda is a more expensive product and would expect their salon/spa to be the same way I wasn't surprised at the price - however if you are unsure if this is in our range, check out their website as it lists the services/treatments and their prices. I definitely think you should pamper yourself at least once here if only to have their knowledgeable staff review your skin and offer their recommendations.
Terrible business practice – The first time I went to this spa, I will admit I really liked the hair stylist Renee. However, the price was a bit high $75.00 for a haircut and 5.00 Tip.....here's the kicker...i called back to make an appointment and the person on the phone who stated that she was the manager demanded a credit card...over the phone...in order to book my appointment. Since when did hair style salons become Dr.'s offices...or wait Dr.'s offices don't even have the Balls to ask for that over the phone. Even after telling her how unprofessional that was and that they just lost a customer...she didn't care....so obviously you are just a number and a dollar $ to them....Truthfully, I hope a company like this goes out of business.....but I wish the best for Renee...because she was a great stylist..... I do recommend the Paul Mitchell Salon that just opened up....they are reasonably priced $40.00 and do a very good job....

Qatar says it has made "tangible progress" in addressing welfare concerns of migrant workers, as the nation builds the infrastructure for the 2022 World Cup. Amnesty International says the reforms are positive but not enough.
"On one level, always pleased to see positive efforts to improve rights to migrant workers and prevent these kind of abuses happening," says James Lynch, Amnesty International's researcher on migrants' rights. "But I think it's important to make it clear that this doesn't really fundamentally change the situation. This is a limited contractual standard being applied to World Cup stadiums."

Researchers investigating the hand-made carpet industry documented thousands of workers in northern India and found widespread slave labor, bonded labor and human trafficking in the supply chains. Siddharth Kara, who worked on the report for the Harvard School of Public Health, said that the reality may be far worse because they were violently turned away from many of the operations they tried to visit. Read his report in full here.
Law enforcement officers arrest 29 people in a clampdown on the organized sexual abuse of children online. The arrests include men in the UK and the Philippines. Stephanie McCourt of the UK National Crime Agency warns sex predators: "These people need to realize that what they are doing leaves a trail. They will be found."
In parts of Africa, still haunted by the 19th Century trans-Atlantic slave trade, new forms of slavery are thriving. According to the 2013 Global Slavery Index, four of the world's worst 10 countries are in west Africa. In this film, CNN reporters examine why slavery still exists, including among children. They talk to victims, activists and politicians accountable for stamping it out.
This Freedom Project film aired on CNN International TV in January. Now you can see it here in its entirety without commercial breaks.
CNN Correspondent Vlad Duthiers starts in Ghana, where many of the trans-Atlantic slaves were captured and where slavery now has its roots in different forms. The film also includes reports from Ivory Coast, The Gambia and Mauritania, the last country in the world to make slavery illegal, but where many people remain in servitude.
In The Gambia, child marriages help alleviate poverty for many families. But Ramatoulie Jallow, a straight-A student with ambitions to be a doctor, wanted a different destiny and stood up to her father. Now she is an activist for children's rights, fighting to replace a culture of silence and early marriage for girls with education and the confidence to speak out.
Police in Ghana storm a camp being used to keep children in slavery after one journalist spent weeks infiltrating the traffickers. In this video, CNN correspondent Vlad Duthiers meets the journalist and asks the minister responsible for protecting children what the government is doing to help.
Women who work in bars close to U.S. military bases in South Korea are often forced to do far more than serve juice. The U.S. military is warning its soldiers that the staff, often trafficked from the Philippines, are modern day slaves. But the bars are still in business. CNN correspondent Paula Hancocks spoke to one woman who managed to escape.
Cambodia has a young population and awareness about the dangers of modern day slavery is spreading, thanks in part to student activists. During filming for the documentary "Every Day in Cambodia", actress Mira Sorvino met some of the teenagers who are warning communities against falling for the traffickers' false promises.Watch Mira Sorvino's report

Phnom Penh, Cambodia (CNN) – We have just landed in Phnom Penh, to begin one of the most important journeys I have ever embarked upon.
I have been an activist on the issue of human trafficking since 2004, the year I was expecting my first of four children. I was spokeswoman for Amnesty International's Stop Violence Against Women campaign, which brought the issue of modern-day slavery to light for me. Before this, I was blissfully unaware that slavery was alive and well – it had just gone underground. Meeting survivors of human trafficking changed my life, and deepened my commitment to fighting this terrible scourge that affects most every country around the world.
Since 2009 I have been a United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) Goodwill Ambassador Against Human Trafficking, one of the greatest honors and challenges of my life. I have interviewed scores of survivors in many countries, as well as government officials, NGO workers, law enforcement and even a man responsible for sex trafficking about 4,000 girls from Latin America to European club-brothels.
I've also partnered with the CNN Freedom Project several times; this time I'm taking off my UN hat and joining forces with CNN to present this documentary. We are here to see why Cambodia continues be a hub of child sex trafficking and virgin sales, and what we can do to help expose the problem and suggest solutions.
I've never been to Cambodia, though I made a fictional movie, "Trade of Innocents," about child sex trafficking in Cambodia (shot in nearby Thailand). I am excited to discover this new place, but feel trepidation over delving into our heartbreaking topic. FULL POST

Phnom Penh, Cambodia (CNN) – Today we drove out to Svay Pak, a slum notorious as a hub of child sex trafficking. There we met Don Brewster, a white haired, blue-eyed bespectacled man in flip-flops with a pleasant face and high energy. He runs Agape International Missions (AIM), a non-profit for trafficked and at risk children and teenagers. The residence, Rahab's House, is filled with bustling energy with a school and a children's center. It takes its name from an Old Testament prostitute who provided sanctuary and was blessed. He says this and every other building used by AIM is a former brothel."
Don takes me on a walking tour of Svay Pak; we pass "The Lord's Gym," a center Don started, filled with local guys—human traffickers-turned-kickboxers. How he did it: He invited a "power team" of U.S. bodybuilders to display their might through the streets, leading the young men to the gym to work out, where they are inspired by a coach who teaches them respect for women and children. They have traded the high money (they used to make U.S. $200 or more a month bringing girls in from Vietnam and selling them to brothels) for the prestige of being known pro-fighters. I'm very impressed by Don's outside-the-box methodology, proving transformation is possible in this generation of young men.
As we continue our walk, Don points out a group, mostly men, sitting around a couple of tables at the end of road. They are all traffickers, he says: They sell not only other people's children, but their own.
As we approach with the cameras, they start to disperse, like roaches exposed to the light. A feeling of utter revulsion and ire rises in me. I finally burst out: "It's not ok to sell children! It's not ok to sell children to pedophiles … The world is watching."
I felt so impotent with a rage that could do nothing in the moment. I felt a little ridiculous but I couldn't walk away saying nothing.
Don felt we should move out of there quickly. Then we looked at each other and both started crying. I just can't stand it, that little children and teenagers are being hurt a stone's throw away and we can't get to them, can't swoop in like guardian angels and pluck them out of harm's way; that those men and shifty-eyed women are using children for profit and going through with their ipso facto destruction without a shred of empathy or humanity. I'm crying again thinking about it. FULL POST

Phnom Penh, Cambodia (CNN) – This morning Don Brewster takes us to the Agape Restoration Center, a secure facility in Phnom Penh for the protection and development of the most-at-risk girls. We are brought through gates into a lush courtyard with pools and a gaggle of smiling young girls, awaiting our arrival.
I'm experiencing déjà vu ; the very first time I met young survivors of sex trafficking was when I pulled into a secret shelter deep in the heart of Mexico City, and hoped desperately that the smallest kids I saw were the sisters or daughters of victims. This time I know better: At least three girls I met today were just six years old and had been rescued from sex trafficking.
In the courtyard, we interviewed another young virgin sale victim. Kieu was probably somewhere between 13 and 14 (they have few birth records). She was very lovely with the shy expression of a young doe. She wore an intricate braid plaited in her hair, and a pretty green dress. She told of how she had been sold by her mother to a Khmer man of "maybe more than 50" who had three children of his own. The price set in advance for her virginity: $1,500, though she was ultimately only given $1,000, of which she had to give $400 to the woman who brought her to the man. Her mother used the money to pay down a debt and for food for the fish they raise under their floating house-their primary income source.
Beforehand, Kieu said, "I did not know what the job was and whether it was good for me. I had no idea what to expect. But now I know the job was not good for me." After she lost her virginity to the man, she felt "very heartbroken." Her mother supposedly felt bad too, but still sent her to work in a brothel. Kieu said she did not want to go, but had to. She said, "They held me like I was in prison." FULL POST
