My Semester Abroad
It was a Saturday night and I was packing. Like usually when my flights leave early in the morning, I was up all night getting my things together. Very pleased after a great party with all of my friends on Friday and extremely excited about taking on a this new challenge, my feelings were mixed with anxiety and suddenly tears came when I realised that I was leaving for a semester. It was then that I felt like I wasn't leaving to seek anything that was missing from my life, I felt like I'd have been just as happy staying in Iceland - I guess I would have been, but today, I wouldn't want to trade those 5 months on exchange for anything in the world!
I guess I wasn't the only one who felt like this at that time. The day after, I was one of 300 exchange students at Copenhagen Business School, who were all in the same situation – "alone" in a new country, new home, with new people, new cultures, new languages, etc.
I arrived in the afternoon and my Danish buddy picked me up from the airport and brought me to my new home – I was very lucky as I received a room in my most preferred accomodation – Holger Danske Vej. Holger is a beautiful residence in Frederiksberg that hosts single and double rooms and five common kitchens for 60 exchange students. Like all students in single rooms, I shared a bathroom with the student in the room next to mine – I was lucky to have a great neighbour and today she is one of my closest friends. Although living in a residence costs a bit more than renting a studio apartment on my own, many of the precious memories from the exchange are connected to the residence, the people I met there and the time we shared: cooking together, hanging out, hosting parties, watching Prison Break together, biking home from university, biking home from going out ;) ... it was perfect! It was definitely a bonus that I always had to walk through the kitchen, outside again and into my room, as the only common areas we had were the kitchens and we spent a lot of time there!
The day after arriving in Copenhagen, I started a one-week crash course in Danish. Preparation/introduction courses as such are great opportunities to get to know the university, the town, other students! Soon I found myself hanging out with the people from the courses, the ones I met during breaks, the ones I walked home with and the atmosphere in the classes, during evening activities, and in general, was great! I immediately felt like I was home and we all wanted to be there, but had no clue about all the things we were going to experience during our stay! After about two weeks, when we had all been to IKEA and Jysk, people started bringing their own cups to the kitchens, there were candles in most bedroom windows and the bedrooms looked much more "homy" with colourful covers and pillows, and pictures of family and friends from home hung above all desks. It also helped make us feel more comfortable and happy, enjoying our stay to the fullest.
I decided to go on exchange at CBS because I wanted to study at a great, internationally recognised and respected university. Although my studies certainly were important and I learned some very interesting things from courses such as International Management, I learned most from the most random and funny things that happen when you're living and hanging out with people from all over the world, who have various ideas about how things are supposed to be!
Many of us were living "alone" for the first time and occasional incidences like red socks in the washing machine with previously white, now pink underwear suddenly were not so occasional anymore. We would find ourselves dancing Danish folkdances, pretending to sing with straws as our microphones - not caring at all about what anyone around us was thinking, partying all night long – ending up "kidnapping" Röyksopp or being "kidnapped" by 2ManyDjs, walking around town after partying - to find a bakery that was open at 6 in the morning, turning the bathroom pink - gluing a red lightfilm we found at a concert over our light, naming our bathroom even, leaving each other post-it notes on the bathroom mirror before going to sleep, spending endlessly many walks, as well as long evenings or days in the park, discussing how to make the world a better place, having a little too much ice-cream at the delicious ice-cream store just around the corner - almost daily, biking to Christiania and getting really lost and spending hours to get home – always traveling with a map after that, being more than 10 people in one tiny room - all squeezed together for our weekly get-together of watching Prison Break, eating carrots and popcorn or some exotic candy people had brought from home!
There are many things that I miss from the exchange, I miss the beginning when we were all getting to know each other, the time we spent traveling together, doing spontaneous things together, we seemed like we were one big family, sure there were arguments and some people got along better than others - there were more than 30 nationalities in the house – people from Europe, Asia, Australia and America! Some of our most interesting discussions were certainly about cultural differences and we learned a whole lot about getting along with people from other cultures, of other backgrounds, in all kinds of situations! When we were celebtrating, we all got along perfectly, danced, sang, had fun, and came home to sit in some kitchen, listening to music and talking until early morning. There's something that everyone should remember when they are on exchange – Everyone is always welcome and the mindset really is: "The More – The Merrier"!
The great thing is that you always have someone to share those moments with and they become memories you cherish together forever!
When we first got there, we had a fairly theoretical lecture about the experience other exchange students had made, discussions about the initial feeling of euphoria, the adjustment period, the culture shock that hits in after about six weeks, and the stable and fun period that follows, the occasional (actually very common!) weight gain, and the perfect final days. They said that we would increase our knowledge, in particular about various cultures and countries, increase our language knowledge, form international networks and last but not least broaden our horizons. Although we all listened, we couldn't really feel it. Looking back now, I wish I had that lecture - it actually depicted the way things turned out to be.

Interesting that pro style model QB´s went down and all we are left with is the gunslinger and the Tebow prototype.
Neither of those sounds particularly complimentary, #1. Part of me is curious about which putdown applies to which QB. But not that curious.Both teams endured a difficult 2-round gauntlet to get here, and both are pretty beat-up now. But given the family angle and the grudge-match aspect (SF wants redemption after the Thanksgiving 2011 debacle in Baltimore), it should be a very-hard-fought-out contest.
Kaepernick has lots of promise. He looks like a young Joe Montana.
This Saints fan is just tickled black and gold that the "dirty birds" aren´t going to the Superbowl. :D
I read that several of Kaepernick´s tatoos are bible verses. He may not be Joe Montana yet but he is very exciting to watch.
I´m pretty pleased with who´s in the Super Bowl. The cheating Saints and the cheating Patriots aren´t, so that´s good. The Falcons aren´t, but I didn´t expect them to be...they always fold like a rickety house of cards. I like SF and Baltimore...I might even watch this year.
By the way as a local and a Niners fan, as much as I loved Joe Montana, it was Steve Young who is more like Kap... They both ran and were runners...
I completely agree with you number 5. I posted the same thing on another thread. I don´t agree with number 7 so much. But i love you all.
#2 I was referring to Manning and Brady mostly. I was not putting down Flaco or the 49 QB. I think it will fun to hear the Tebow haters explain how is style offense worked in DC and Frisco.
Crapernick is a freeloader. With that running game and D, you could make Larry King QB. The SF Harbaugh is a jerk and handled the Smith situation with precisely 0 class. The Baltimore Harbaugh seems to be a pretty good coach, it doesn´t hurt that he´s had the best D in a generation to work with. I think the Flaco jokes may finally go into abeyance after he bested Manning and Ryan. What a lousy match up.

CD/LP/Track Review
Trio Nueva Finlandia: Ha! - What's Going On?
The members of the Trio Nueva Finlandia call their music "unique music" rather than "improvised music," for they note that "the word 'improvised' in general use has a taste of being something easy and cheap compared to composing." This is fine, for there's nothing easy or cheap about the music on Ha! - What's Going On?, which showcases their remarkable sensitivity in the musical moment. "Part 3" of "Suite N. 17258," for example, with Baron Paakkunainen on tenor saxophone, has the Baron adding tones that mesh perfectly with Teppo Hauta-aho's bowed bass. On the meditative "Lentosteron," another segment of the same suite, it is pianist Eero Ojanen's turn to interact with Hauta-aho's bowing, and he does so magnificently with some playing on the strings and some marvelous trilling figures at the very edge of the piano's possibilities. When Paakkunainen enters, he only augments the mood.
A good bit of this disc has the same meditative feel: the bass feature (of course) "Less Mingus" builds up ever so slowly from the minutest sounds; on "Emanon," Ojanen plays a few Cecil Taylorian/Romantic figures but the overall sound level remains low. "Ha!," the opening track, seems to mock the seriousness of the later quiet tracks by achieving a horror-house feel, complete with un-human screams. More upbeat (and siren-punctuated) is "Prestosteron."
The members of this Trio have played with everyone from Dexter Gordon to Anthony Braxton. The Baron here plays flute, alto flute, and soprano, tenor, and baritone saxophones. Hauta-aho plays bass, cello, and siren. Ojanen plays piano as if it were two (or more) separate instruments. The music they make here is worthy to be heard, repeatedly and carefully, in its own right.

After almost 18 months of being off the air, Mad Men returned with a bang, and it was definitely one of the most polarizing seasons of the show yet. Some fans absolutely hated it and called it one of the show's worst, and some (like me) became even more addicted to it after this season. Wherever you stand, you must admit Weiner and the writers took a lot of risks this season and that's why it had a few of the most memorable moments of the series so far.
Here are some (in chronological order):
Zou Bisou Bisou, 'A Little Kiss,'
I wasn't a fan of Megan at all this season. Somehow she transformed from being a wordless receptionist to the lead on this show. She got more screen time than all the other ladies combined — which is really really sad because her character isn't as half as amazing as the rest.
That said, I will be lying to myself and to everyone if I said that her singing "Zou Bisou Bisou" wasn't one of the season's BIGGEST moments. The song, recorded by Pare herself, peaked on the World Billboard Chart. It trended for days on Twitter, as well. And it made Jessica Pare a household name. (Ugh.)
Fat Betty, Various Episodes
We barely saw January Jones/Betty in this season of Mad Men, and no one is to blame here – except that guy that knocked her up, probably. But when we finally got to see her in episode 3, she was…FAT! Because of her pregnancy, Weiner decided to dress Jones in a fat suit and transform her from the once irresistible Betty to the now FAT Betty.
It was an interesting twist because we got to see a side of Betty we had NEVER seen before. Her scenes while eating were the BEST because they were a massive comic relief from the otherwise very serious season. Who would have thought January Jones could be funny? I didn't! It's like she was telling the world, "HEY BITCHES! I'm no ice queen anymore!" And she certainly wasn't. I still LOL whenever I see her gifs of her eating.
Look at how happy food makes her:
Fat Betty became probably even more popular than the original Betty. I'm sure that will make January Jones very happy. She has said SO many times that parents on the streets hide their kids when they see her. Hopefully, that has changed after this season. (I don't get the hate, by the way.)
And her own (hilarious) Twitter account has more than 5k followers: @FatBettyFrancis
However, it's a bit of a disappointment that her story-line this season was uneventful. Other than her cancer scare, there was nothing about Betty that mattered! But at least we got to see her in a few episodes, so yay.
Joan Kicking Her Husband to the Curb, 'Mystery Date'
"You not good man , you never were, even before we were married.. and you know what I'm talking about."
How long had we been waiting for that specific scene? To be honest, I never expected it to actually happen. The characters on this show have often settled, and I expected Joan to settle as well – because, let's face it, she ALWAYS does. But I'm so happy that she didn't this time. This man raped her, was awful and condescending to her ALL the time, and made a life-changing decision about the rest of their lives without even talking to her first. I'm so glad he's gone and I'm so proud of Joan for finally kicking him out. He had it coming all along!
Greg: "If I walk out that door, that's it."
Joan: "That's it."
Roger's LSD Experience, 'Far Away Places' (& 'The Phantom')
John Slattery has a gift of making you laugh yet making you feel how sad his character is. And I think that's when that portrayal of Roger was at is best. When Jane dragged Roger to her friends' dinner party, Roger was convinced to try LSD. According to him, it was a "life-changing experience." We got to see, just for a few minutes, why Roger is so unhappy — how he's feeling like the world is fleeting away and that he's not getting any younger. It was an AWESOME storyline because John Slattery pulled it off so beautifully. (All the awards to him!!)
My favorite scene through that "experience" was the scene(s) between Roger and Jane. It was the first time since they'd been together that they had an actual conversation — a real, brutally honest conversation. I'm not Jane's biggest fan, but in those few minutes, I actually liked her for once.
Roger: "So what was wrong again?"
Jane: "You don't like me"
Roger: "I did. I really did."
In the finale, when Roger begged Megan's mom, Marie, to do LSD with him, it was SO heartbreaking. This man is lonely and is trying every single day to run away to a different world.
"There's an airplane here to see you!", 'Christmas Waltz'
The receptionist at the SCDP lobby hired after Joan's maternity leave is, at best, annoying. When Joan came back to the office, she looked at her with sort of condescension that I just wanted to slap her. And after she was served with the divorce papers Greg sent, she was even more agitating when Joan asked her why'd she let the man in. The receptionist started making all kinds of stupid excuses and then simply went, "he said it was a surprise."
And for the first time ever we got to see the OTHER side of Joan. She'd never lost her cool before, but anyone would have gone crazy on that bitch.
"Surprise?! Well! Here's a surprise! Surprise! There's an airplane here to see you!"
Just like a lot of lines from the show, this one has become a classic.
Don & Joan's Day Out, "Christmas Waltz"
Remember when I asked for a Joan/Don friendship in my recent season 2 review of Mad Men? Well, I like to think that Weiner read that (Ha!) because he sure delivered!
After seeing Joan losing it at the receptionist, Don decided to take Joan with him to the Jaguar dealership to test one of their cars. They pretended they were married at the dealership, and when the dealer asked if they were married, Joan replied, "four, all together," which is technically true. They later went on a ride in the "most beautiful car ever made," a ride that cost Don $6,000. But the actual moments that made us lose our shit in the episode were their scenes in the bar. I DIED. I think I stopped breathing for a couple of seconds.
Joan told him why she's so upset — Doctor Greg Harris served her with divorce papers. But Don was sure to let Joan know that it was his loss. And then we finally learned why Don never made a pass at her. (Remember in season 1 when Joan told Peggy that Don has always ignored her?) And it turns out she terrified the shit out of him and he was told to stay away from her.
And then Don asked Joan to dance with him, she declined, "I don't think we should," she answered.
Joan: "You and me in Midtown? You with that look in your face?"
Don: "What look, baby?"
Joan: "God! You're irresistible!"
And I'm squealing again.
If either of them had been just a bit weaker, I think they would done the deed. But they respected each other too much, and they admired each other too much to let a hookup come between their relationship — a relationship, I think, is one of the healthiest on the show.
By the way, would you guys kill me if I said Don and Joan > Don and Peggy?
Joan, the partner & pro, 'The Other Woman'
I wrote about it all here: Mad Men: The aftermath of Joan's moral setback
Peggy Leaving SCDP, 'The Other Woman'
The Peggy/Don dynamic is one of the reasons people are in love with this show. "The Suitcase" became everyone's favorite hour of drama because of that. So when Peggy decided to leave SCDP, as happy as we were that she finally decided to stand up for herself, our hearts broke a little. And then came that last scene when she told Don how thankful she was that he was her mentor and she his protege. I teared up — just like everyone else — especially when she put her hand out to say goodbye and he kissed it with hopes that this kiss would bring her back. But I'm sorry Don, after literally throwing money in her face, I don't think a kiss is enough.
This scene was so precious for a lot of reasons but mainly because of one thing: the hand holding between Don and Peggy has been a symbol of their evolving relationship over the years. In the pilot, Peggy attempted to hold Don's hand when she was first hired as a secretary, and Don pulled away telling her he's not her boyfriend. In "The Suitcase," arguably the show's best episode, Don grabbed her hand tight after the hell of a night they went through together. And then there they were: she was saying goodbye, he didn't want to let go, so he kissed her hand with plead. Sigh.
The Demise of Lane Pryce, 'Commissions & Fees'
It's been what? Two weeks since that episode? I still cannot get over the fact that Lane's dead. We didn't get to know much about Lane in the 3 seasons he was in — he was not a happy man, he was an embezzler, he cheated on his wife…and that's about it. The show never really dug into his personality much. But it was still awful seeing him hanged like that. Props to the makeup department; Jarred Harris really looked dead.
A lot of people saw it coming (I think I did, too, I just didn't want to believe it), but when it actually happened, we were all shocked for a long, long time. And seeing the partners torn apart after Lane's death — Don and Joan especially, who felt guilty about Lane's suicide — broke our hearts even harder.
But the episode was pretty clever for one reason: he tried to kill himself in the Jaguar his wife bought him, but the car wouldn't start. How ironic was that? The car the company just got — the car that was known for its vanity and its beauty not its practicality — failed him as he tried to kill himself. Amazing writing. Amazing show.
Out of all these moments (and the ones I skipped like the return of Paul Kinsey), which were your favorites? Sound off in the comments!

Our church has found that IMD serves as a conduit of God's love for people in many locations around the world. As an example, our personal contact with indigenous Zambian missionary Henry Katontoka allows us to both support and serve in a location where we otherwise would be clueless as to the needs and ways to reach Zambia villagers with Christ. Pastor Henry exemplifies a trustworthy servant who loves Jesus and loves the people he can reach with the good news of a loving heavenly Father.

Today I have David M. Brown, author of Fezariu's Epiphany, guest-blogging at The Life and Lies!
The Secret of Inspiration
Where does a writer get their ideas from? I can only speak for myself here but the answer would have to be sometimes in the most surprising places, other times from sources I would have expected. Each day a new idea may come to me, usually when I don't have a pen and paper to hand, but with so much to appreciate in the world it is hard not to find inspiration from somewhere.
My biggest source for ideas is undoubtedly history. When I first began building the world of Elenchera in 1999, I was indebted to many history books but one in particular – Cassel's World History. This giant of a book traced all the key dates and events in our timeline and even had room for some essays about the 100 most important people to have ever lived. These weren't necessarily people who had done good deeds, but more who had had a massive impact on history.
As I read the book from cover to cover, I learned of how societies were founded and developed from simple ideas and ambitions to thriving cities. I always had a notepad with me when I read Cassel's World History. Anything that really struck a chord with me I would jot down such as the famous battle at Thermopylae in 480BC or Captain Scott's heroic but tragic march to the South Pole (1911-2). Not everything I noted down would be used but many events inspired aspects of Elencheran history. Europe's discovery of America, first by Leif Ericsson in 1100, and then by Christopher Columbus in 1492 has had a major bearing on the world of Elenchera. When East Elenchera discovers the lands in West Elenchera, centuries of brutal colonialism begin. I'm not trying to make a statement here about our own history but to take that defining moment when a world is changed forever.
I also find inspiration in films, music, games and books. The RPG series Final Fantasy is why I am writing today. I stared playing it in 1998 and was overwhelmed less by the visuals but by the worlds, the characters and the storylines. Final Fantasy games make use of gods from myths and legends and one of these – Odin – intrigued me. I soon discovered he was a real god, a Norse god nonetheless, and thanks to Final Fantasy I suddenly started reading Norse mythology, the Icelandic sagas and even Beowulf. It still surprises me to think this writing journey once instigated through a love one game franchise but though the Final Fantasy series has deteriorated since its tenth installment, I still play those games, love them and will always be indebted to them for where I am now.
Ideas usually come to me when I go for a walk and each time I never have a notepad. Instead I will either write a text or even email myself so I don't forget! I look forward to each day wondering what I am going to discover. One of my future novels was born when I was listening to Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera. Christine is in a graveyard and the Phantom suddenly appears singing, "Wandering child so lost so helpless, yearning for my guidance." The thing is I didn't see Christine or the Phantom. I saw a character named Lorenzo watching his broken-hearted lover Celestia weeping over his grave. That's what I mean. Something as simple as a song can trigger an idea in me just like that.
Is there a secret to inspiration? I'm not sure there is other than to keep your eyes, ears and mind open to wonder and possibilities. Imagine different outcomes of events in your own life and the lives of others. They say we all at least one novel in us and I sincerely believe that. We go through life and experience so many things it's hard not to find at least one story to tell, even if it is just our own.
About the Book
12-year-old Fezariu thought his mother died when he was little, but when his beloved stepfather dies the boy discovers she is alive and well - and working at the most famous brothel in all of Elenchera. When she cruelly rejects him it's more than he can bear, and he runs away to join a band of ruthless soldiers for hire. The Merelax Mercenaries will fight for anyone who can pay them, no matter the justice of the cause.
Fezariu grows up among the soldiers and becomes one of them. He thinks his time with the mercenaries has hardened him. But a campaign in his old home town pushes him too far, and he discovers what really happened to his mother. Maybe there are some things money shouldn't buy... and maybe it's time Fezariu took his revenge.
About the Author
David Brown could be considered a fantasy fanatic, especially since he has spent the last 10 years developing a 47,000-year history for his fictional world of Elenchera. When converting his obsession into literary form, David commits himself to a rigorous writing and editing process before his work can meet his approval. Combined with the critical eye of his wife and a BA Honors in History and English, David's dedication leads him to his goal of inspiring readers through heartfelt stories and characters.
Although David is inspired primarily by fantasy fiction, he also finds his muse in the form of anime, world cinema, history, and biographies. His own books, Fezariu's Epiphany and the in-progress A World Apart, combine aspects from worlds both old and new into compelling tales of a world not soon forgotten., David himself certainly does not lack a spirit of adventure; in fact, he left his job in 2007 in order to spend a month traveling. Second only to meeting and marrying his wife, David counts this as one of the most amazing experiences of his life.

Posted at: 07/03/2012 7:48 AM | Updated at: 07/03/2012 12:08 PM
Are you looking to try a new sport? How about pickleball? It's not new but it's getting popular in the Rochester area.
Tuesday morning, six new pickleball courts opened at Ontario Beach Park next to the Robach Community Center.
Pickleball combines elements from tennis, badminton and ping pong and is played with a wiffle ball and paddles.
News10NBC is told these courts are the first of their kind in the state for this many, public, outdoor courts.
Wendy Cooper from Greece said, "We're very excited because most of the courts that we've been on have been on tennis courts. Now we have our own courts that we can come and play and we just heard they are going to be open every day so we're very excited."
The new courts will be open daily from 8 a.m. to dusk on a first come first serve basis.

According to The New York Post, De Niro is upset at Jay-Z because he wanted Jay to to record a song for the Tribeca Film Festival -- which was co-founded by De Niro in 2002, but he never returned his calls. A source said, "Bob wasn't in any mood to make polite conversation. He told Jay that if somebody calls you six times, you call them back. It doesn't matter who you are, that is just rude. It was the talk of the party. Everyone was saying there's only one star in New York bigger and badder than Jay-Z, and that's Robert De Niro. He can be quite scary when he's angry." Another source said, "De Niro kept telling him that he thinks he's the man, but that he was disrespectful. Beyonce came over, but that didn't calm Bob down." Jay reportedly tried to joke it off, but De Niro was very upset.

Unioil now pumps EURODiesel IV in all stations nationwide
Words by Christopher Kho
It goes without saying that diesels are dirty (at least here in the Philippines, anyway). And yes, I'm referring to both the fuel and the engine. Okay, there are some newer cars out there that run on cleaner and newer diesel technology, but in reality, most of the ones that ply our roads don't. Our government, or more specifically the Climate Change Commission (CCC), actually has plans to rehabilitate some 500,000 PUVs that will reduce soot emissions by up to 80%, but that project will cost us P26 billion. So what if I tell you there's a way to get the same result without spending an extra penny? That's right, the answer is cleaner diesel fuel, and it's called
EURODiesel IV
While the Department of Environment and Natural Resources's (DENR) mandate to use Euro IV fuel is still three years away,
all Unioil stations nationwide now carry EURODiesel IV
- the cleanest and most advanced diesel fuel in the country.

Piaggio goes Ape; Offers cheapest diesel on the market
Words by Niky Tamayo | Photos by Christopher Kho
Perhaps one of the most unusual displays at the
4th Philippine International Motor Show (PIMS)
is the
Ape three-wheeler
. It's aptly named, as there is something monkey-ish about the thing. A product of
, the Ape was designed in Italy specifically for the Indian market. Being a Piaggio product, it obviously shares some architecture with the famed scooter line that spawned the Vespa, with a scooter front end mated to a robust swing axle rear. It's available in a variety of forms, from dropside to closed van to auto-rickshaw. While most people wouldn't get up in a blather over a motorcycle-based three-wheel delivery vehicle, given the ready availability of local and Chinese conversions, the APE has something these two-stroke wonders don't:
A diesel engine
Maybe it's not the most appealing of cars, with its cramped cabin and scooter-based controls. Rear swing axles won't inspire confidence, either, for anyone familiar with old VW Beetles. But this is not a sports car. It's a
low speed urban delivery vehicle
built specifically for business. And it costs less than a Segway.

American Diesels: Ford Focus TDCi vs Chevrolet Cruze VCDi
Words and photos by Niky Tamayo
From observation,
diesel-powered cars
don't sell as well here in the Philippines. While budget-conscious Filipinos love diesel SUVs, vans, and pick-up trucks, diesel cars often get the cold shoulder. Perhaps it's simply because we've never really had hero diesel cars to look up to. When people think of a diesel SUV, it's pretty easy to conjure up images of Land Cruisers and Patrols conquering the far flung jungles of the world. But for a diesel car, it's usually a smoke-belching Isuzu Gemini or a dinky Hyundai Accent taxi weaving erratically through traffic that come to mind. Neither of which is as sexy as a big, burly SUV.
The great diesel cars have invariably all been German, with a price tag several times what most people would pay for a simple driving appliance. But the times are changing. Years ago, it would've been hard to imagine a car capable of both 20 km/l fuel economy and a 200+ km/h top speed, let alone one priced within reach of most middle class buyers. Today, we have two and, surprisingly, they're both from America, the land of high-octane muscle cars. Roll out the
Ford Focus TDCi
and the
Chevrolet Cruze VCDi

A better Cruze? | 2011 Chevrolet Cruze 2.0 VDCi AT
Words by Andre Palma | Photos by Niky Tamayo and Christopher Kho
Much has been said about the Chevrolet Cruze. Not surprising, owing to the fact that this is a car that has to live up to every inch of its plural, 'world car' status. Built to respond to the needs of every market, this is a car that finally brought Chevy out of the dark ages of solely relying on rebranding to get products to fill out gaps in its automotive line-up. The current Cruze is now built on a global platform designed by GM, branded and kitted to regional and country-specific needs - a surer formula for market acceptance. And now that there's a diesel version thrown in the mix, can it really make a better Cruze?

Hell freezes over, BMW releases M Performance Diesels (w/ video)
Words by Niky Tamayo | Photos courtesy of BMW Group
M Performance
division has made a name for itself developing hardcore versions of its regular road cars. While Mercedes-Benz's similar AMG's are more like road-going locomotives, cars bearing the M badge have always had a reputation as razor-sharp race cars for the road. But in recent years, BMW's definition of M-cars has become somewhat more liberal.
Take the case of the BMW 1M Coupe, which was as hardcore as an M gets, but it had... gasp... turbochargers. And now, BMW is straying even further from the original M ethos with the

PGA Cars serves up the Porsche Cayenne with Diesel
Words by Christopher Kho | Photos courtesy of PGA Cars Inc.
Just a month after it was launched at the Geneva Motor Show, PGA Cars Inc., the Philippine distributor of the Porsche brand, already have their hands on the latest Cayenne Diesel.
Offered locally with all-wheel-drive, the Cayenne will be powered by a 3.0 liter common-rail injection turbo diesel V6. With 240 hp and 550 Nm of torque in tap, it jumps from 0 to 100 km/h in a brisk 7.8 seconds and continues to accelerate until it reaches a top speed of 220 km/h. And contrary to its outstanding performance figures, the new Cayenne is actually 23 percent more fuel efficient than its predecessor and claims to achieve a mileage of 13.9 km/L, partially swayed by the new 8-speed Tiptronic-S automatic transmission.

Get a boost in performance with Petron Turbo Diesel
Petron Press Release
Petron, the country's leading oil company, is making its mark as a fuel innovator with the introduction its specially formulated fuel, the new
Petron Turbo Diesel
A high-performance diesel designed to deliver that optimum driving experience, Petron Turbo Diesel
contains a technologically-advanced cetane booster
, resulting in a cetane number higher than other diesel fuels in the market. Technically speaking, Cetane number or 'CN' is a measurement of the combustion quality of diesel fuel during compression ignition. A high cetane number indicates that the diesel fuel has a shorter ignition delay from the start of injection to start of combustion. It causes lower rates of pressure rise and lower peak pressures, thus lessening combustion noise and vibration, resulting in increased efficiency. The cetane boosters in Petron Turbo Diesel ensure better ignition quality for quicker engine start-up, improved fuel economy and reduced exhaust emissions.

opinion: Glenn Law will work to make Saline better
I am writing to share my enthusiasm for Glenn Law, candidate for mayor of the city of Saline.
Glenn will make a fine mayor for the city because, at his core, Glenn is helpful, hopeful, and hard-working. He understands the need for cooperation to get things done, thanks to his years on the City Council; and he has the skills to make that cooperation productive.
Without a doubt, Glenn will work hard to make Saline even better. I urge all my neighbors to vote for Glenn Law on election day. Perry Plouff

What, in your opinion, is the most important characteristic of a Christian? My friend and I are having a friendly disagreement about this, because he says it should be a pure life, while I say the most important thing is peace. What would you say? — K.J.
You and your friend have listed two important things that should be part of the life of every true Christian: purity and peace. Paul told his young friend Timothy to "Flee the evil desires of youth, and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace" (2 Timothy 2:22).
In one sense, however, no single characteristic is more important than any other. God wants us to be like Christ, and when we take this seriously we won't want to leave out anything that is good or right. And when we walk with Christ every day, we'll want to follow Him more closely and become more like Him. The Bible says, "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control" (Galatians 5:22-23). Are these your goals?
But in another sense one characteristic is supreme—and that is love. The Bible says, "God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him" (1 John 4:16). Jesus said, "By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another" (John 13:35).
Why is this so important? One reason is because only God can give us this kind of love—one that loves even those who are unlovely. The world says, "Live for yourself"—but Christ says, "Live for others." Ask God to give you this kind of love.

Hey BoS. I run a tutoring business, and am looking for tutors to run classes starting from the Term 4 this year (When the new year 12 begins).
What I am most interested in is charisma, energy and confidence. I want tutors who are involved in extra-curricular activities and involved in the world. Basically, I'm looking for people who can offer more than just knowledge of their subject (Although it is important of course to have high marks in the subject you wish to teach).
I will pay $50 a class for the first term, and will raise this to 60$ once you have a full class and some experience, and once you're an established member of the team this will reach $70 and will possibly continue to rise.
Each class is just an hour and a half of teaching, not including a 15 minute break in the middle, and a 15 minute icebreaker/introduction at the beginning. The idea is to keep the kids comfortable, and to make sure you're developing a relationship with them, for the benefit of both you and them. If you have done tutoring before, I'm sure you'll agree it's a much more rewarding experience when you enjoy your student's company.
-- No experience required, I will train you up if you're new to tutoring.
-- If you don't feel comfortable teaching at the HSC level, there are places for year 1-10 Mathematics, with a slightly different class structure.
-- Tutoring will take place in a designated tutoring room, near Neutral Bay.
-- There is a fridge full of free food and drinks, which you're more than welcome to enjoy whenever you're running a class.
Please visit my website if you're interested: http://www.primoresults.com.au/More%...s/Contact.html
If you're interested in applying, email me with the following subject: 'Tutoring -<course>'
Make sure you have listed the course you're interested in teaching and attached some sort of resume or cv. Also since personality is such a big part of this position, please write a paragraph or two about yourself
Regards, Jonah.

It is great to hire tutors for all level of subjects like maths,physics,bio etc. It is necessary for all students to learn something extra and advanced which is only possible if you have good tutor and you can also boost up your exam result by hiring good tutor as well for sure.

text: Plaintiff sued defendant retailer of home decorating products and services for declaratory relief seeking a judicial determination that its "AdWords" advertising program does not infringe defendant's trademarks AMERICAN BLIND and AMERICAN BLINDS. Defendant does the majority of its business through its website "www.americanblinds.com." Defendant counterclaimed claiming infringement, false representation, and dilution, as well as contributory infringement and dilution. Plaintiff's search engine uses keywords to produce search results and sells keyword-triggered ads allowing advertisers to purchase the right to have plaintiff display links (known as "Sponsored Links") above and alongside the user's requested results. Plaintiff sold defendant's competitors such keywords as "American Blind," "American Blinds," and "Americanblinds.com" despite defendant's objections. The effect is that users who search for defendant's company also view advertisements appearing as links which direct those users to competitors' websites. Defendant alleged that plaintiff's intention was to divert customers from its website to third party competitors' sites. Plaintiff had a policy that it would refrain from selling keywords to trademarked terms but abandoned that policy after defendant sued plaintiff in the Southern District of New York in January of 2004. In this case, plaintiff moved to dismiss defendant's counterclaims which the court denied, expressing no opinion as to which party will ultimately prevail, instead, the court wanted to consider the relevant facts and law in "the context of a fuller record." Plaintiff argued, primarily, that defendant was not engaged in the requisite 'use' of a trademark because it did not use "the mark to identify the source of its own goods or services."(emphasis in original) Therefore, plaintiff contended that it did not use defendant's "marks to identify the source of their own search engines or advertising products." (emphasis in original) The court cited Playboy v. Netscape and concluded that the "uncertain state of the law" precluded dismissal at this stage. Plaintiff countered that, unlike the banner ads in Playboy, its "Sponsored Links" clearly identify the sources of the ads and therefore cannot cause confusion. The court, however, stated that this argument required a finding of fact and law which was inappropriate under a FRCP 12(b)(6) motion. The court ultimately denied plaintiff's motion to dismiss it its entirety, citing the same reasoning for the contributory claims as those of the direct claims. Google later moved for summary judgment asking the court to declare that its sales of trademarked keywords did not constitute a use in commerce under the Lanham Act, that defendant's marks were not protectable, that there was no likelihood of confusion and thus no infringement, and that defendant's marks were not famous and thus not entitled to dilution protection. Google relied in part on the intervening decisions in Merck and Rescucom, both of which held that Google's sale of keywords was an "internal" use that did not constitute a trademark use. The court noted, however, that other courts reached contrary decisions, namely, Geico, 800-JR Cigar, Buying for the Home, Edina Realty, and J.G. Wentworth. Moreover, the court continued to believe that the Ninth Circuit's decisions in Playboy v. Netscape and Brookfield suggest that the Ninth Circuit would also assume a "use in commerce" here. Accordingly, the court denied Google's motion for summary judgment based on an alleged absence of "trademark use." The court did grant summary judgment in favor of Google on all claims to the extent they were based on the alleged mark AMERICAN BLIND(S) because that mark was merely descriptive and defendant failed to submit sufficient evidence to create a genuine issue as to whether its mark had acquired secondary meaning. Regarding likelihood of confusion, the court held that defendant produced sufficient evidence under the Sleekcraft factors to withstand summary judgment as to the remaining marks at issue—AMERICAN BLIND FACTORY, AMERICAN BLIND & WALLPAPER FACTORY, and DECORATETODAY. This evidence included the close proximity of defendant's products and those advertised in Google's Sponsored Links; the keywords sold by Google were identical to defendant's marks; a low degree of consumer care was expected of Internet consumers; and Google used defendant's marks "with the intent to maximize its own profit." In addition, defendant submitted a survey in which 29% of the respondents shown a Google search results page for "AMERICAN BLINDS" thought that the Sponsored Links appearing on that page were affiliated with defendant. Although the survey was flawed in several respects—it had no control group and it tested only the mark AMERICAN BLINDS that the court ruled unprotectable—these flaws went only to the weight of the survey and not its admissibility, and evidence of confusion resulting from Google's use of AMERICAN BLINDS "has at least some relevance" to whether there is confusion based on Google's use of AMERICAN BLIND FACTORY and AMERICAN BLIND & WALLPAPER FACTORY. The court also commented that "the future application of the initial interest confusion doctrine to identified, sponsored links is an unsettled question in the Ninth Circuit." According to the court, Judge Berzon's concurrence in Playboy v. Netscape would reach such cases and criticized such a result. However, even if it treated Judge Berzon's concurrence as controlling law, it would have to determine whether a consumer "knows or should know, from the outset" that the Sponsored Link is not related to defendant. Here, although there was no dispute that Google labeled the paid listings tied to the keywords as "Sponsored Links," the court believed that "the reasonable response of a consumer to these links remains a disputed issue of fact." The court next granted summary judgment to Google on defendant's federal and state dilution claims as to all marks because defendant did not submit sufficient evidence of fame. Finally, the court held that Google's defense of unclean hands—based on defendant's purchase of its competitors' trademarks as keywords from Google—failed for two reasons: (1) defendant indicated its willingness to refrain from such conduct, and (2) "a significant public interest exists in determining whether [Google's] AdWords program violates trademark law."

Hi guys! I'm gonna be at the Kansas Sampler festival this Saturday and Sunday so be on the look out. Lots of Kansas Food, Historic Performers, Products and Art; Should be a good down home family time! -Adrian Jacobs
Adrian Jacobs Smashburger
We tried Smashburger last week and I have to give recognition to the wonderful service we received from First Shift Manager Byron. He was kind, courteous, friendly, attentive to the guests and was really a one-man crew: working the front counter, serving the tables, wiping the tables and still finding time to greet everyone who walked through the door and to say good-bye to every guest leaving.
The food was terrific, and I appreciated the choices that were offered especially on the side items. I would like to see a veggie-burger offered but the steamed carrots and asparagus with ranch were yummy. I will say I thought overall they're a bit pricey, but I tell you I don't mind paying a little more if we're going to get excellent service like Byron delivered. We'll definitely be back!
Adrian Jacobs Cottin's Hardware & Rental
Great place. Very helpful and friendly. They've got the tools for any job, for sale or for rent. I rented a tool recently and they helped me set it up and everything. Great prices, too.
Adrian Jacobs Tortas Jalisco
The food here is awesome! The corn chips and salsa are made by hand. You'll eat so many that you might not have room for the entree :)
Adrian Jacobs Toys for Tots
What a great program. Such an easy and inexpensive way to make a caring impact on a child this holiday season. Great group of people volunteer to run this locally every year. There's a funny video message from Shaquille O' Neal on the Toys for Tots website Shaq A Claus
Adrian Jacobs Thai House
Delicious place for lunch! - their Pad Thai Lunch combo for $5.00 is great!
Adrian Jacobs Boys & Girls Club of Lawrence
Can't say enough good things about this program. My son looks forward to every day he goes. The volunteers really do an outstanding job connecting with the kids and mixing school work/responsibility with activities and fun.
Adrian Jacobs Marks Jewelers
I highly recommend Mark's Jewelers. The service is impeccable and the staff is polite, knowledgeable and friendly.
marksinc replies...
Thank you!! As your local jeweler since 1880, we strive to be all of these things. Thanks again!
Adrian Jacobs Game Nut Entertainment
Great time on Saturday! Game Nut celebrated its 5th birthday party by giving away $5,000 worth of stuff in drawings and prizes. Like Nintendo Wiis, ipods, xboxes, plus they served cake in the gaming loft (which is awesome by the way, you can pretty much play any game on any system ever while lounging in a great big massage chair.) I saw a grandfather playing an old Atari 2600 version of Donkey Kong on a giant high-definition screen. And I can't forget to mention the cupcakes done in the style of pac-man, power-pellet maze and all.
If you're downtown, you can't miss their window displays. Unveiled on Saturday, 'Rampage' - imagine king kong and godzilla duking it out in in the great big city. Insanely awesome!
Adrian Jacobs Salty Iguana Mexican Restaurant
My family and I absolutely love this place! I get their Spinach and Cheese enchilada a lot, also the spicy burrito con carne is spicy and great. They've got a good kid's menu, and plenty of low carb choices as well.
Adrian Jacobs Java Break
Yea, I love them. First of all, they're open 24/7. Second, they'll make you a hot breakfast and have a cereal bar where you can eat cereal and watch cartoons. Third, half priced drinks in the mornings! Oh, and their large is like other places medium.

Based in New Mexico, this company creates serving pieces, barware, and decorative items that have the luster of silver but are made from an eight-metal alloy developed in 1953 by a former scientist from Los Alamos National Laboratory (the birthplace of the atomic bomb). The groundbreaking compound retains heat and cold for long periods of time, making it an ideal material for ice buckets and bowls; it's also oven- and stovetop-safe. Nambé's recent offerings incorporate an enamel finish that mimics the look of wood and sandstone, a touch that adds warmth and color to the company's cool, rippled designs, including several pieces by iconic designer Karim Rashid.

"It's been happening for the last four years," sighed Taj Gibson. "We always have a good shot. But there's always this bug that hits us late. It's frustrating. We always had a good shot. We still have a great shot. But we always seem to end up having guys injured.
"We're always undermanned and have to put forth a lot of energy to make up for bodies we don't have," Gibson went on, shaking his head. "Tonight we just didn't have the energy. No excuses. We just did not have it."
Nate was one dime short of the Triple Double: 27pts, 9ast, 10 stitches...Heart Hustle and Muscle
Belinelli did a $15,000 dance after hitting a big shot in Game 7 against the Nets, but in reality he was describing his entire team in that one gesture.
Omer Asik: Such a shame that Chicago couldn't afford to keep him. We need to figure out revenue sharing once and for all — the Bulls shouldn't be penalized by playing in a tiny city like Chicago.
Derrick will know when it's time to come back. I think he has handled it very well. It seems like the people who are having fits about this are you guys.
11. Carlos Boozer: three years, $47.1 million
How many NBA fans have gotten sucked into the "Carlos Boozer gives you 15 points and nine rebounds every night and always plays hard, how bad could his contract be?" vortex before going onto HoopsHype.com, checking out the numbers and screaming, "AHHHHHHHHHHHH!" when they see them? It's personally happened to me five times. And I might be headed for no. 6 in about three weeks. While we're here, kudos to Booze for dropping the spray-paint routine and going back to the pure head shave. We all appreciate it.
"It's hard to believe that Tyrus Thomas could top his miserable 2011-12 season, one that saw him play through ulcers, get into a shoving match with his 68-year old coach, and shoot 36.7 percent even while working in the frontcourt. And yet … here we are!
The Charlotte Bobcats have told Thomas to stay home as the franchise gears up for a four-game Western swing. The Charlotte Observer's Rick Bonnell was the first to report that Thomas, some three years after being traded to Charlotte, is being excused from the excursion."
Hey Bulls fans -- Pacers fan here and I'm not here to stir anything. I'm heading to the Big Ten tourney in Chicago coming up in a couple of weeks. I've never been to the United Center and I'm hoping you can give me some advice on whether there is ample parking or if I'm better off taking a taxi from my hotel, dining options, what to avoid, etc.
Any advice would be appreciated -- and I see where the Bulls might be signing Amundson -- he's fun to watch because he's high energy and a little quirky.
If you have young guys and they can handle the minutes, you play them. If a guy is in his mid-30′s and you are trying to prolong things you have to be more cautious and you monitor those things. But this is not anything new. This has gone on in the NBA for a long time. You have a guy that is in his prime, a primary player, then he is going to play. That's the way it is. I sat on that other bench when Jordan and Pippen and Rodman never came out. I sat on that bench playing against San Antonio when Tim Duncan never came out. All this stuff about minutes. I understand that. I understand if a guy is in his 30s you manage his minutes. A guy is young you can handle it. Heck, Jordan was playing high 30s until he was 40 years old. Wilt played a few minutes every night."
Eyewitness at D Rose's first 5-on-5 practice Monday said Rose looks "ready to go." Said Rose looks like he's able to play in games.

The Blue Ridge Bicycle Club is proud to present one of the most scenic and challenging century rides in the Commonwealth of Virginia. On September 22nd, 2013, cycling enthusiasts from near and far will gather to celebrate the life of our club founder, Artie Levin. This annual event is dedicated to the memory of Artie's life, and his many contributions to the Roanoke Valley and surrounding communities.
The Artie Levin Memorial Century will start at the beautiful Fincastle Winery in Botetourt County and wind for 105 miles through neighboring Alleghany and Craig counties. Riders will encounter 8 rated climbs, and approximately 10,000 feet of elevation gain along the way. Highlights of the ride include the 5 1/2 mile climb to the summit of Potts Mountain, and the leg crushing 23% gradient at the top of Caldwell Mountain.
For those not up for the full century, there will also be 65 and 32 mile ride options to choose from. The 65 mile route still provides plenty of challenge, with over 5000 feet of elevation gain, including the short but menacing Caldwell Mountain climb.
The 32 mile route is perfect for those who prefer rolling hills to the high mountains, but this short ride is no walk in the park. Riders will encounter nearly 2000 feet of elevation gain as they traverse the scenic countryside of Botetourt County.
Starting times for the 3 rides will be staggered so that everyone arrives back at the finish in time for the post-ride festival. Riders and their families will enjoy authentic barbecue, live music, prize drawings, wine tasting, and more.
We look forward to riding with you at The Artie!

Blues Place Brewer on IR; Recall Micki DuPont
ST. LOUIS St. Louis Blues President John Davidson announced today the club has recalled defenseman Micki DuPont from the Blues American Hockey League affiliate, the Peoria Rivermen. In addition, defenseman Eric Brewer has been placed on the injured reserve list after suffering a shoulder injury in last nights game in Phoenix. He will be examined by Dr. Rick Wright on Monday.
DuPont, 27, skated in two games with the Blues during the preseason. He played the majority of last season with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins of the American Hockey League, appearing in 78 games, recording 51 points (18 goals, 33 assists) along with 101 penalty minutes. He was tied for the AHL lead among blueliners with 16 goals and was second with 46 points and for his efforts earned AHL All-First team honors. DuPont also played in three games with Pittsburgh, notching an assist and four penalty minutes. DuPont played three seasons with the Berlin Polar Bears in Germany from 2003-2006 and led all defenseman in scoring in each of those three seasons. The 5-10, 181-pound defenseman was drafted by Calgary in the ninth round, 270th overall in the 2000 NHL Entry Draft and spent three seasons in the Flames organization between Calgary and Saint John. The Calgary, Alberta native has skated in 21 NHL games, registering four points (one goal, three assists) and 10 penalty minutes. |
First Jay McKee and now Eric Brewer... this teams blue line cant stay healthy for its life.

Yeah, this is from the Boynton fight. Brewer was fine all game, but after the fight he went to the locker room and didn't return. I was wondering if he had gotten hurt, and he did.
Reports say that this is likely a "day-to-day" injury - not too serious - which is good news. But yeah, our blue line can't stay healthy. McKee goes down, and now Brewer. After all the talk about trading one of our defenseman for a forward this offseason because of our great depth at 'D' - I am glad we didn't. Injuries WILL happen, and the Blues have had a lot of trouble with that in the past, so we need as much depth as we can get. Note to John Davidson and Larry Pleau: Don't trade any defensemen in the near future. We need all of them. We will now have Steve Wagner and Micki Dupont starting - two guys who we signed in the offseason to play in the AHL, and just like that - after two injuries - they are both starting in the NHL. Shows you anything can happen. Matt Walker will remain the #7 defenseman. Hopefully Brewer gets back soon. We can't afford anymore injuries, and we need him on the point. At least his injury isn't too bad.
THE OFFICE "Boom, roasted." Formerly Wes McSnipes |
I just hope Murray does'nt take this the wrong way and advise the Blues to not drop the gloves. J.D. was happy to see Brewer stick up for his partner. These things are bound to happen from time to time. At least Walker should see some ice time now.
If you can't beat em on the ice, beat em into the ice. |
I was at the game, and yes, it was from the fight. My line of site was about the same the view from the clip. It was hard to see just when he got hurt, but but when Boynton got up, Brewer didn't. In fact he stayed down for about 30 seconds and then went streight to the locker room.

At Least One Hit in South Side Shooting
Shots fired in late afternoon altercation in Easton's South Side hit at least one person, scanner reports indicated.
Police responded to reports of gun shots that apparently left at least one person injured in the intersection of West Nesquehoning and Davis streets around 4:20 p.m. Wednesday, according to scanner reports.
Witness reports indicated that after the initial incident, four or five men fled the scene.
It's the second shooting in Easton -- and on the city's South Side -- in the last three days. On Sunday, two men were shot and wounded in the Neston Heights neighborhood. Police identified a suspect in that shooting Wednesday afternoon.
Police were looking for a blue Pontiac Vibe that was last seen headed south on St. John Street. Scanner reports indicated the vehicle may have been located in a nearby parking lot by around 5 p.m.
A man suspected to be involved was detained by police, after being apprehended in the alley behind Tommy's Pizza off Davis Street about 10 minutes later.
Authorities also apparently recovered a revolver and a jacket a couple of blocks away, and also a shirt at another location within a few blocks.
Reports of a gunshot victim found by a homeowner in the 200 block West St. Joseph Street were also heard, but have yet to be confirmed by authorities.
A possible second victim may have been seen by personnel at St. Luke's Anderson, as radio reports indicated police were on the way to interview a man that may have been involved.
A second suspected actor, reported to be a black male standing 5'8" to 5'10" tall, about 20 years old, and wearing a white tank top is currently being sought, scanner reports indicated.
Check back for updates on this breaking story.

Police confirmed this evening that ONE person was shot during the altercation this afternoon. His injuries do not appear life threatening.
Two men have been detained, and authorities said they believe they are the actors involved. The men are still being questioned, and charges had not yet been filed by late evening, as investigation continues.

Yet another, "Cleaner and Safer".
Mr. Mayor, Don't delay!

He has some good things to say.

Real fans care, thats who. Yet another reason your entire athletic program is going down the drain. Fairweather fans that just don't care. There is a reason that we were one of the most succesful programs in the country last year and UT not even close. See basketball, mens and womens, baseball, golf, tennis, soccer, volleyball, cheerleading- even rifle. Support your teams. Because of people like you, I paid 80 bucks for 50 yard line Row 1 seats. Thanks.
Row 1 seats aren't very good, really.

How do I book an appointment? What if it is my first time at Green Beauty and I am not sure what I need?
Well, no problem! Simply give Green Beauty at call at 647-348-1119 and our Green Beauty Guest Services Coordinator will walk you through the process and answer any questions you have about your service.
When should I arrive for my appointment?
We suggest arriving at least 10 minutes prior to your appointment time. This will give you the ideal amount of time to enjoy a cappuccino or a cold drink and a home-made macaron from our friends at Butter Avenue, browse the boutique and ensure a comprehensive consultation with our staff.
What if I am running late for my appointment?
We know that life moves pretty fast and we all are tardy from time to time. We will do everything we can to accommodate you, however there is always a chance that we will have to reschedule or shorten your appointment. If you do keep your appointment, the service will end at the originally appointed time so that the next client is not inconvenienced. That's what you would want, isn't it? Thanks for understanding.
What if I have to cancel my appointment?
We are understanding at Green Beauty and appreciate that life can sometimes get in the way of, well – life. Please call us with at least 24 hours notice to cancel and reschedule. If you are a no-show, tsk tsk – sadly we will have to charge you for your services.
What is green about Green Beauty anyway?
We do all the stuff at Green Beauty we all ought to be doing. We clean with eco cleaners (baking soda is the best sink cleanser ever); we recycle; we avoid paper towels in exchange for fabric ones; we serve fair trade, organic espresso and offer organic cream and milk, our materials are printed on FSC card stock. Not that we are perfect, but we are trying really hard to be as responsible as possible.
We are also beauty junkies and we want to be as responsible as possible with our product and service offerings as well. However, the performance of the product has to be of the highest quality too. A crappy lipstick whether it is organic or made of petroleum jelly is still a crappy lipstick and no one should buy it.
So what makes your products green? Do you make them?
We seek out the finest brands that meet our standards of performance and responsibility. While we love being local when possible, our products come from all over North America. They are always free of the big nasties: phthalates, parabens, formaldehyde releasing ingredients, petroleum, tricolsan, sodium laureth sulfate, Dibutyl Phthalate (or DBP). We try to use products that are organic whenever possible. If you have a brand suggestion please let us know. We love hearing about brands people love. Email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
I am pregnant, are your services safe for me?
To the best of our knowledge, our products and services are risk free for pregnant and nursing women, however always have a word with your doctor before having any kind of hair colouring or other esthetic service. If they say you are good to go, we will ensure you have a safe and fantastic experience. Donna is a mom too. She gets it.
Yikes – my childcare fell through. Can I bring my little one to my appointment?
Green Beauty enjoys kids – we really do. If you are in a pinch, we certainly don't mind you bringing your little ones to your services, though we do have some caveats: your child must stay in the treatment room, nail lounge or hair studio with you; please bring activities for your child so that you (and other clients) can enjoy their services. Also please keep in mind that we are on the 2nd and 3rd floor. We will happily help you with your stroller.
Do you do shellac nails or something similar?
First let us say this, the most natural and responsible thing to put on your nails is nothing. However, we at Green Beauty love manicures and appreciate the appeal of the more hardy shellac (and its equivalent) options. So, true to our promise to find the service you are looking for in the most responsible means possible, we do offer Artistic Colour Gloss. One of the things we like about this system is that the lacquer is cured under an LED lamp, as opposed to the damaging UV lamp. It also has a base coat that protects the natural nail to superior results compared to the competitors. It is the brain child of Tom Bachlik, "man"-icurist (groan…that's their word not ours… ) to the likes of Victoria Beckham, Beyonce and J-Lo. So if you want the results of a gel polish as responsibly as possible – this is the best option.
What methods of payment do your accept?
At Green Beauty we accept VISA, MasterCard, debit and of course cash. When ordering online it is VISA and MasterCard only.
What is your return policy on products?
It is such a drag when the colour is just not what you wanted. We get it. At Green Beauty we will accept returns on any unused and unopened, non-sale item for exchange within 10 days of receipt. Please note that all body care products that have been opened and/or used cannot be returned for health and safety reasons. If you are unsure whether or not your purchase can be returned, please contact us for more information. Your satisfaction with your purchases from Green Beauty is very important to us. Everything is solvable so give us a ring at 647-348-1119 and we will figure it out.
Do you ship to the USA?
We do! We ship throughout Canada and the US. For international orders please email us for special arrangements.
Can I pick up my order?
Absolutely! If you are in the GTA we would love to meet you. You can select "pick up order – no shipping fee" on your online order and come by 3471 Yonge St, Upper Suite to collect your order. In fact, why not book a service for the same time?
When will my online order be shipped?
We try our very, very best to ship orders placed Monday to Friday (excluding holidays) within 48 hours. If for some reason we are unable to ship your order within 48 hours (life gets in our ways sometimes too – hey, we're all only human) we will notify you by email. Orders placed on Saturday, Sunday or on a holiday will be processed the next business day. Please note that free standard shipping applies to Canadian deliveries only (sorry American friends). Shipping rates are subject to change at any time without notice. And while we are on the subject of shipping: In an effort to reduce, reuse, recycle and be as eco-conscious as possible, we mail out our packages using reused and recycled boxes from our suppliers, etc.

We love how Armadillo & Co photograph their rug collections strewn so casually against a branch or fence with nature as its backdrop, as though the rug was always meant to be there.
And it quite possibly could be, given the emphasis on `natural' with a variation of undyed natural fibres used in the handmade weaving process such as hemp, jute and pure wool. All their rugs are hand woven on looms with manual gears and no mechanical assistance is used during their manufacturing process.

By Ameenu Shardow
Hearts of Oak captain Mahatma Otoo is putting the team's success ahead of his personal ambition to be Goal King.
The 20-year-old has started the season in explosive fashion – scoring a hat-trick in the 5-2 mauling of New Edubiase last Sunday.
Otoo now leads the Premier League goalscoring chart after two rounds of matches but says helping the team win reigns supreme over his personal ambition to emerge the top goalscorer at the end of the campaign.
"As I said before the league started, my main focus is to help the team," he said.
"If I am able to help the team and at the end of the season there is any personal award then so be it but the focus is to help the team.
"We have a very good technical team and a coach who is always encouraging the players.
"So I believe we will do very well this season."
Otoo will be needed at his best again on Saturday where he could help Hearts seize top spot when they play Ebusua Dwarfs at the Tema Park.

Stamey's second round 70 leads Spartans at Coca-Cola Duke Classic
DURHAM, N.C. – UNC Greensboro's Nathan Stamey sits at even par and the Spartans are 13th after two rounds at the Coca-Cola Duke Golf Classic at The Duke Golf Club.
Stamey, a senior from Canton, NC, shot rounds of 74 and 70 on Sunday to sit at even par and tie with 13 other golfers for 23rd place after two rounds. In the morning, Stamey made 13 pars, two birdies, two bogeys and a double bogey on his way to 74. The afternoon, however, was more adventurous. Stamey had five birdies and an eagle – on the par-5 ninth hole – in his second round. But he also had five bogeys and just seven pars in that second 18 to finish with a 70.
Teammate Drew Younts shot a pair of 74's on Sunday to sit at four-over par and in a tie for 50th place. As a team, UNCG shot rounds of 296 and 295 on Sunday. John Isenhour shot UNCG's low round of the morning, carding a 73, but came back in the afternoon to shoot 82.
Tournament host Duke rallied late to take a two-shot lead after two rounds. The Blue Devils carded a 273 in the afternoon to overtake a red-hot Chattanooga squad and hold a two-stroke lead going into Monday's final round. Chattanooga's Jonathan Hodge and Duke's Michael Schachner are tied for the individual lead at seven-under 137. Hodge led after the morning round produced a 67, but Schachner stormed back from 14th place in the afternoon with a 66 to forge a tie.
Monday's final round gets underway with tee times on Nos. 1 and 10 starting at 7:45 am. UNCG will begin teeing off No. 10 at 7:54 am.
