We are a family of three adults planning a last minute trip to Rio over the holidays. So far I am able to secure the fligths and hotels in Rio and Bahia ( or Buzios) Can anyone tell me what they know or think about this time of year in Rio? The hotels? Bahia or Buzios? Any guides, drivers etc. that might be helpful? Safety? Just a few questions
We can stay in Rio at the Sheraton Barra Hotel & Suites. The Fasano was booked and this we can do on starwood points which is always helpful. Any thoughts on this hotel? Location?
We are able to get something before New Years in Bahia at Ethnia Pousada & Boutique (not the Club de Mer ) which is reasonable but I am not sure if it is very nice? Or the Uxua Casa Hotel and Spa however this is pricey for five nights. They both can accomodate us before New Years....so what I thought is :
Fly into Rio and go straight to Bahia for a 4-5 nights and come back to Rio for 4-5 nights. Should we stay in Rio over New Years or get out of there? I am not such a crowds person and it sounds crazy to me! But someone did say you shouldn't miss it. Maybe I can just watch it from the balcony
I am concerned about safety and getting around Rio/Brazil. Wouldn't mind having a driver or guide of some sort if anyone knows of any. If someone could help with this itinerary I can than go on to researching the actual things to do! Fodorites as always thank you for your incredible help!!
Rio and Bahia Over the Christmas/New Years Holiday

Oh one more thing. Would you choose Bahia over Buzios? Or is there even another place/beach that would be better? In Buzios I think we can stay at Cas Brancas Boutique hotel & spa.

Buzios and Trancoso have a totally different character, as I mentioned above. I happen to prefer the latter, but I suspect I am a very different type of traveler than you. All of the properties you mention for both locations are quite nice.

Thank you VidaNaPraia! It seems that EVERYTHING is booked over the New Years weekend except for the Sheraton which as I checked into it more does not get very good reviews. i am ready to give up! Trancoso also is booked so we can't do it the other way around.
Thank you for the recommendations and the guide. If I can find a hotel in Rio I will do it and Trancoso. I have no idea how to get there but these are minor details The Etnia sounds a bit bohemian to me. We do like luxury, what can I say. But people do recommend it! -

Not surprised at all to read that most places in Rio are already full for Reveillon. You really have to book around July to have any choice. Anyplace that is popular (read anyplace that has ever been mentioned in a guidebook in English or Portuguese)is likely to be booked early, since Brazilians like to travel at this time too.
As far as Trancoso, the easiest would be to fly from Rio to Porto Seguro. Get a taxi from the airport, probably not cheap; there is a small back road that avoids crossing the river by ferry. It's about 13 miles from Porto Seguro, but I think you may have to have to backtrack somewhat to get to the turnoff to the little backroad.
Or maybe the hotel can arrange a car.
Otherwise, take a taxi or bus to the ferry dock. Then take the balsa (ferry) across the Buranham river to Arraial D'Ajuda and get bus/taxi to Trancoso there.
(I have local friends with a car so I have never used any public transportation there.) It's relative remoteness is part of it's charm.
On the other hand, Buzios is a few hours by road from Rio. -

Okay, so we can find two hotels for New Years weekend! One is in Saint Theresa and the other is on Atlantica Avenue. I was thinking that the Atlantica might be better located but St Theresa sounds lovely. We can also find something in Buzios for before New Years. So the thought is to fly into Rio and either spend a day or two and than go on to Buzios or go directly to Buzios returning to Rio for the New Years weekend before we fly home for 4 days.
Any thoughts on any of this?
Thanks so much for your help!! Comment has been removed by Fodor's moderators

This should give you a good idea of Reveillon on Copacabana beach:
Santa Teresa is a charming neighborhood of lovely buildings set on top of a hill. The bondinho trolley that was one main form of transportation up the hill is not running (due to an accident a few months ago), so you would have to taxi up and down the hill (and some taxi are reluctant to go up) every time, or take one of the buses. There are some nice restaurants, shops, and places to stay, but it would IMO be considered a gentrifying neighborhood in which not every street is safe to walk. Nice place to take a day trip, eat at Aprazivel, look at some very good quality craft shops, have a drink at Bar do Mineiro, and see the Chacara do Ceu museum.
The view from Santa teresa over the city:
Part of the neighborhood, showing the bondinho tracks:
Before you plan Rio vs. Buzios (first, middle, or last), check the multi-night packages (usually Dec. 28-Jan 2)for Reveillon that are most common at Rio hotels and might effect those plans.
Here's Av. Atlantica as seen from one of the kiosks on the sidewalk next to the beach:
(I think the tower that has the blue Othon sign is the Othon Palace hotel. The chain has several Rio properties.)
That location is quite convenient to all sights and for the fireworks.
And a bit of Buzios:

Thank you for the photos. In the photo Buzios looks a bit run down. Is this the case? How does one know what the star rating is in Brazil?
Report Abuse
I really don't know how to comment on the issue of Brazil in general often appearing a bit rundown in certain areas. For example, some people are utterly enchanted by Salvador, Bahia and others find it dauntingly and offputtingly crumbling. I merely think it's all part of the experience.
It's also hard to advise on star ratings. You would have to have some experience in Brazil to compare for yourself. Although the prices are often equal, perhaps some 4 to 5 star properties in Brazil would be rated 3.5 to 4 elsewhere.
Here are some more impressions of Buzios:
Remember Bardot was there way back in the 60s when it was a small, modest fishing village. The attraction is the beaches and the proximity to Rio.
and some views of Casas Brancas
The grounds and beach of the Sheraton in Vidigal. You can see the city beachfront towers off in the distance.
It would be useful if you did a trip report after your visit.

Well, at least in my opinion.
"It was really Dr Farshchian, when he became aware of the sleepovers, who planted the idea in Michael's head that he might have a problem.
"As a responsible doctor, Dr Farshchian thought these tendencies were something Michael might address. Dr Farshchian didn't necessarily think there was abuse going on – but he was concerned there were inappropriate feelings towards minors which could be addressed."
"Yes, that's exactly it. He was trying to help Michael."
...a drug called Depo-Provera...sharply diminishes sex drive in men by reducing their production of testosterone. [source]
"When I heard of his death it was the saddest moment of my life. I'm proud I met Mr Jackson."Clearly, the man does not harbor any ill will towards Michael, so I said to myself, 'Why would this be a lie?'
Originally, for some unknown reason, I had linked Dr. Farshchian's 'prescription' of Depo-Provera with his seemingly vast amount of commercial pornography. I thought that that had been the reason Michael needed help. Of course, now that doesn't make any sense; I must have not read the article closely.
Since there is no real evidence that he ever underwent the treatment, we can only surmise that it was simply a 'recommendation' from a legitimate doctor based on what he perceived to be questionable conduct on Michael's part when Michael Jackson was around children.
This is something no one can deny, however: Michael Jackson has a peculiar preoccupation with children.
Ultimately, chemical castration is an extreme measure only undergone by men with dangerous sexual compulsions. (It is worth noting that the treatment is completely reversible.)
We should ask ourselves: why would Dr. Alimorad Farshchian--a man who deals with arthritis and bones--want to give Michael Jackson a chemical castration drug?
It's a damned good question. Stay tuned.
ETA July 15, 2010:
It has come to my attention that this story has circulated around the Internet with the long quote attributed to a source close to the doctor as being from Ian Barkley, a former photographer for Michael at one point. Barkley DID NOT say the above quotes, nor did I mention Barkley in this entry.

I've actually decided on the first place prize. It actually is even more cooler. You can use it at Coachella. If it works, which I have no idea if it does. Tevs.
Coachella 07 (the introduction), 08 (the bands), 09 (the documentary), 10 (the people i came with), 11 (the relationship test... we passed), 12 (whatever the weather, Dirty Epic forever), 13 (the year of the troll)
I have a draft of a list, but since I have until October 3rd, I am waiting for more signs.
Out of the 15 submissions I've received at the halfway point:
14 different headliners
9 different reunion acts
147 different undercard acts
sent : )
Upcoming Concerts:
4/16-Crystal Castles @ The Beacham/Orlando, FL
5/3- Matt & Kim @ Northcote Social Club/Northcote, VIC, Australia
6/20- Amanda Palmer and the Grand Theft Orchestra @ The Forum Theatre/Melbourne, VIC, Australia
e-mail sent.
I have a limited edition AIDZ needle shirt I can contribute to the prize pool as well.
Well, we know two names that will not count on submissions after Sep 15.
If there's Coachella to be had, I'm gonna have it
worth a try
If there's Coachella to be had, I'm gonna have it
The amount of headliners submitted baffles me. I can count on two hands the obvious and most likely picks for next year's headliners...unless I factor in boring repeats and or something out of left field...
I would never want to belong to any club that would have someone like me for a member...
List submitted

Huh that is very surprising


text: A classroom is a magical place. Engaging, young students enter, ready to learn and mature, confident students leave, more ready to take on the world. My classroom has always been my home away from home. It's important to make a classroom a warm and inviting place for the students and teacher. After all, such a large part of your day and your year is spent within those four walls! I love watching those "light bulbs" go on as students grasp the big idea of the lessons I've planned. The challenge is planning lessons and units that are engaging and academically sound I love that challenge! Through my carreer I've seen many changes, but none as great as the transition to the new Common Core State Standards. My goal is to use my experiences to create engaging, meaningful, and academic based units and materials for classroom teachers. My 30+ years of teaching have included 1st grade, Special Education-Resource program (K-8), 4th grade and my true love- 3rd grade.

MORGAN CITY — Serving solid serving wasn't a constant for Morgan City Thursday, but the Lady Tigers came through when they had to, accompanied by a solid front row attack, to edge Central High of Baton Rouge, 3-0 (25-16, 26-24, 25-23) in first-round Division 2 playoff action.
While the Lady Tigers missed nine serves in the ball game, they did get a solid start as junior Savannah Loupe served three consecutive aces and four on her first trip behind the serving line as the Lady Tigers jumped out to a 7-0 lead.
"It was really a confidence booster," Loupe said of the serving to get out to the early lead, which she agreed helped settle the team's nerves with a nice advantage.
The Lady Tigers extended their lead to as much as 12-3 on a Central ball handling error.
However, errors on the Lady Tigers' part allowed Central to claw its way back into the game.
A Morgan City error allowed Central to cut the lead to 14-8 and another Morgan City error later helped them cut the lead to 17-12.
However, the Lady Tigers would close the game on an 8-4 run, capped by a May Grogan kill for the 25-16 win.
Grogan, along with Jaiveianna Jones, had solid games at the net for the Lady Tigers.
"Our middles (hitters) did really good tonight," Loupe said. "They were on their game."
Kloe Liner came alive in the third game, while Ariel Trim also did some good things for the Lady Tigers.
Jones led the squad with 15 kills and four blocks as well as an ace and a dig, while Grogan added 10 kills, two blocks, a block assist, an assist and a dig.
Liner added seven kills, 10 digs and an ace, while Trim recorded five kills along with two blocks, a block assist and six digs.
In game two, Morgan City appeared as if it would duplicate its start to game one as the Lady Tigers jumped out to a 4-0 lead.
However, Central (14-17) clawed its way back to even the score at 5 on a Cameron Clement ace.
From then on, the game went back-and-forth as there were 10 ties with neither team taking more than the three-point advantage that Morgan City had on a Jones' ace for a 17-14 Morgan City lead. On the play, the ball bounced off the scoreboard following contact with a Central defender before falling to the ground.
With the game tied at 22, Central looked as if it would take the second game as consecutive hitting errors by Grogan, one in the net and another out of bounds, gave Central a 24-22 lead and prompted Morgan City coach Christy Theriot to call a timeout.
Immediately after the timeout, though, Morgan City came through as Central missed a serve to cut its advantage to 24-23, while Jones followed with a block to even the score at 24.
Loupe then connected on an ace for a 25-24 Morgan City lead before Trim's kill ended the second game, 26-24.
Game three again was back and forth with the largest lead a 16-12 Morgan City advantage following a Grogan kill, prompting Central coach Michele LeBouef to call a timeout.
Central took its lone lead of the game, 23-22, on a Morgan City error.
However, Morgan City rallied with a 3-0 run, capped by a Genesis Esteban block for Morgan City's win.
"They came through when they needed to, but we can't get in that bind again," Theriot said. "(They were) just a little silly in between the first and the second games, and it took them awhile to settle back down."
Jones said the squad could have played better in the second and third games.
"We played good, but I think we could have done better within the second and third games because we missed a lot of serves, a lot of hits ... But overall, I think we played good," she said.
Annie Wilson led Central with nine kills, two digs and a block, while Paige Roberts added seven digs and 11 assists. Katie Flowers added nine digs and two aces.
Other Morgan City contributors included Katelyn Adams, four kills, 31 assists and eight digs; Loupe, five aces and 14 digs; Elizabeth Esteban, 10 digs; and Marilynn Bailey, one ace and six digs.
Morgan City will continue postseason play Monday when it travels to New Orleans to take on Cabrini High, the No. 5 seed, who had a first-round bye. Game time is set for 5 p.m.

PATCH: Ghillie suits please Treyarch. Kthx.
Like (0)
It IS possible to put them in the game. If I complete the challenge to get them, I should have them...
They are already in there...it is awarded when you reach certain levels of One Shot Sniper rifle kills. I currenlty have over 200 OSKs with the MSR and have unlocked Ghillie for Urban/Artic/Desert (Not sure of the last one)
Look at your character model..does he have grass on him? No..because they didn't port the game like it SHOULD have been..The suits are even in the ******* iso ffs.
I want a patch to stop those 65th clan cheaters and all the other cheaters from getting inside the fuel trucks before I worry about what i'm wearing. Everytime we went on that map someone was inside every truck. Twice on two occassions by the 65th. One name I remember was 65th vallorie. Cheating b1tch..

i hate you. but i hate the 65th clan more. espeically vallery. i feel like im personally disliked by every single clan on hc lol

Is that even possible. I thought I was your #1 most hated person in cod. I feel rather dissapointed. What do I have to do ffs. Anyhow, we played some of your aos people last night and it has to be said they were good games when you find the ones that don't hack. Though I doubt they would say the same thing. I bet I was using some overpowered gun or something. Camping? Not me but others yes. But it was good none the less. Other clans that was using those glitches to help them win were the P.R.A.T clan and the Britts. So it seems more and more people know about them now. Anyways, we'll meet soon and you can get me back then ok.
Gas is right, at least that's for ps360 I can't confirm on Wii.
Gas how does one apply it to your class anyways?
Plus I read that there were only three different types.
I just really want them in the game..we paid 50 dollars for downgraded graphics and cut killstreaks. not the removal of characters.
Personaly I think this should be the least of your worries and should wait untill the bigger issues have been addressed. Also I like it better the way it is because it makes quickscopers easier to spot.
.....Aparently you don't snipe then. It is so easy being found in a hoodie. I want a grass suit. I snipe with a suppessor FFS.
I snipe but I'm more of a support sniper. I move from spot to spot and pick people off across the map.
Same here..I need a ghillie though..
Kirby have you fully completed the Ghillie in the Wind challenges?
**************Correction, Ghillie in the Mist.****************
If there arent any ghillie suits, I want to report a bunch of bigfoot sightings.
If you dont unlock them all you dont get them for every map.
And if I'm not mistaken, from MW2 .... the devs arent sure what suit goes with which map ....... lol
Yes I have, Porkins.
Umm so all 100 or whatever the final number of one shot kills?
All 200 1S 1K
Have you also gotten the 20 360 noscope headshots?
Trolololol. But seriously, I really want them..c'mon Treyarch..
I don't know, for some reason I feel like they're in the game and just need to be freed from a silly challenge. :l
Have you gotten a collateral?
Yup, of course.
There are there....it's not a hoodie. You are ghillied up when you complete the 1S 1K challenges. Have a friend look at you I promise.
I have finished ALL OF THEM.
I would rather enjoy patching real proplems than some ghillie suits that are useless
Useless? Stupidity...
They are right. If it can be done you'll probably get what you want. But there are some glitches that should be sorted first. I can't remember the name of the map with those fuel tankers, but while people can get in those it makes most of that map useless to play on. Wouldn't you agree on that point? Just asking..
Kirby, its useless. The hoodies you have right now protect you just fine. When you asked me if i could see you in the grass, i SERIOUSLY COULDNT see you at all. YOu just blended into the grass. If anything, i say REMOVE HOODIES! THEY ARE OP, i been killed by way too many bouncing bushes....might have worded that wrong....
Lol Padiego xDDD
Alright sillies I've got the solution.
How about gas you add me or Kirby and show us the Ghillie suit.

The purpose of this study is to survey female cancer patients' awareness of and preference for methods to improve their sexual health. This information will help to improve the understanding of the needs and preferences for sexual health strategies and interventions of women with cancer. The findings of this survey will also be used to develop sexual health resources for patients and enhance future research on sexual health interventions.
Researchers will be asking women treated for breast or gynecologic cancers to share their thoughts and feelings about their awareness of sexual health issues and preference for sexual health interventions.

Party favors can sometimes be a pain to deal with and think of. You can't deny the times where you took home a party favor and trashed it underneath the couch or in some drawer filled with miscellaneous items. One way to really make a memorable party favor is to make a photographic one. Personalize your party favors so your guests can always look at it and remember it came from you. Instead of being underneath the couch, your party favor will be up on the mantle with their collection of family portraits.

In just over a month it will be The Queen's 85th Birthday; I would like to share with you my 40-year relationship with this fascinating lady.
I have been watching the excellent Andrew Marr-fronted documentary on the BBC 'The Diamond Queen'. I realised very quickly my knowledge of Elizabeth II is coloured by events in my own life and I was on a journey of discovery about a lady that has been a constant thread.
The Queen was my father's boss for 25 years, as he served in the Royal Air Force. Her likeness was on the coins I used to purchase my Saturday sweets and comics. She was even in the cinema with me, as the national anthem was played at the beginning of all films, when we were stationed abroad. I have seen her children get married and sadly divorced, the funeral of her mother and then the marriages of some of her Grandchildren. I have celebrated her Birthday and she was always at our house for Christmas Lunch at 3pm, punctual as ever.
I really feel I know her!
I was happily mistaken there is even more to this extraordinary gem of a woman. Elizabeth Alexandra Windsor is a person with many facets, an individual in her own right; a mother \ grandmother, indeed a great grandmother and the CEO of possibly one of the most unusual companies in the world!
During the first episode HRH The Duke of Cambridge reflects on how difficult it must have been at 25 years old to be the Monarch.
He smiles and replies with admiration in his voice, "It must have been very daunting to have all that responsibility placed on her in a time which was so male dominated." Prince William goes on to say that his Grandmother is a true professional at her trade and knows how to engage with everyone to make them feel comfortable."
Authenticity is a real gift; to make others feel valued reaps huge rewards for everyone. When we all take the time to be ourselves and listen we learn so much more. Winston Churchill was highly regarded by the Queen as a great orator who she said, 'spoke in a romantic and glittering way.' In their later dealings she discovered he was not such a good listener.
As Epictetus the Greek philosopher said, "We have two ears and one month so that we can listen twice as much as we speak."
I think of all the people the Queen has had the privilege of meeting and they her: it is an illustrious list filled with Kings, Queens, Presidents, Prime Ministers, movie stars, artist, musicians and even us.
Prince Harry commented, "The Queen carries herself so well and has a smile that brings a room to life." She brings to these events colour, confidence, poise and always a touch of humour. I love the fact that as a child when the young Elizabeth was told to read more, she chose to read comedies by P. G. Woodhouse.
As the programme continued I was totally unprepared at my reaction to a speech Elizabeth gave in South Africa when she was only 21. She read from the prepared script with such clarity of thought and dignity:
"I declare before you all that my whole life, whether it be long or short, shall be devoted to your service and the service of our great Imperial family to which we all belong, but I shall not have the strength to carry out this resolution alone unless you join in with me, as I now invite you to do. I know that your support will be unfailingly given. God help me to make good my vow and God bless all of you who are willing to share in it."
As the words resonated in my head I could see how focussed and motivated she was in achieving her task, however still gracious enough to ask for support.
We all need help, support or a sounding board to enable us to be the best we can be. David Cameron, the present Prime Minister says of his weekly meetings with the Queen, "There is no-one else in the room just us, this makes me think more clearly and focuses my mind. She helps me to reveal my deepest thinking and worries about issues, that really helps you reach the answers. It is quiet simply always a frank, open and informative meeting."
Most top CEO's have a mentor that makes them accountable, keeps them focussed and motivated. As the programme draws to an end I realise with a smile, I have something in common with the Queen: I too do this for my clients.


text: Eaton A Bag Of Elephant Dung"CHAIRMAN EATON TO CUOMO–SCHEDULE THE 27th SENATE SPECIAL ELECTION NOW Some may argue that scheduling any Special Election with the April primary would result in a higher Republican turnout – a point Eaton dismisses based on recent history. "Governor Cuomo scheduled the 9th Congressional special election for the same day as Democratic primaries in Brooklyn", said Eaton. "Congressman Bob Turner didn't complain about his transparent attempt to draw more Democrats to the polls. He got out the vote and he won." "If Governor Cuomo doesn't do the right thing and schedule the 27th Senate Special Election for April 24th, then all should question his commitment to cutting government waste and call him out for putting politics ahead of the people of Brooklyn." The above referenced press release is so disingenuous on oh so many levels that it is worthy of a prize. Gerry O'Brien, a smart and talented operative who knows his way around a sentence (putting the lie to the rumor he writes the semi-literate homophobic GOP HATE BLOG "Craig's Dick Is Up My Ass" --or whatever it's called) did a great job here. He probably giggled like a school girl when he finished writing it. But it's just so dishonest on oh so many levels. Let's see how many I can count before my coffee finishes brewing: "Brooklyn GOP Chairman Craig Eaton called on Governor Andrew Cuomo to immediately recognize this resignation and immediately schedule a special election to fill the 27th Senate District seat for April 24, 2012… Governor Cuomo must schedule a Special Election as soon as possible." "Immediately" schedule a December vacancy for April. Translation: "Hurry up and wait". Time must really be of the essence. "Now that Brooklyn voters have yet another vacant seat to fill thanks to yet another corrupt Democrat." Now that's unfair. Anthony Weiner may be depraved, and possibly mentally ill, but there's no proof he ever took a dishonest dollar. And it's also unfair, because, as Mr. Eaton knows the prime enablers and beneficiaries of Mr. Kruger's politics have been Republicans, so much so that Brooklyn Republics refused to run candidates against Kruger, and sometimes gave him their line. "The people of the 27th Senate district have been without adequate representation for far too long." So let's make sure that they are deprived of any representation during the budget process. "A Special Election coinciding with the scheduled primary in April is the quickest and most cost effective way to do this." No, the "quickest" way to do something is to do it sooner rather than later. However, I'll stipulate that scheduling a special election the same day as a primary would reduce some costs, although not as much as Mr. Eaton pretends. As Mr. Eaton surely knows, since he controls the appointment of an Election Commissioner, and his Party controls appointment of one half of the Board of Elections payroll, including one-half of all Election Inspectors, the City's Board of Election has proven incapable of efficiently running a primary and a special election on the same date using its new electronic equipment. On the date of the recent primary coinciding with the 9th CD Special election, Brooklyn voters in the 9th Congressional District had to cast two separate ballots, in two separate rooms, with two separate groups of poll workers. One ballot was for the Congressional special election, and the other ballot was for the Democratic primary election for Kings County Civil Court, or the Republican races for the Party's District Leaders and County Committee. Many voters were unaware that they had to vote twice. As a result, double the number of inspectors were needed wherever the Special Election was taking place, at nearly double the cost. Further, the fiscal argument is undermined by the failure of the State Senate Republicans to agree to a June primary in order to be in compliance with the dictates of federal law. They want the primary to be in August, which I must say disproves that the GOP is interested solely in suppress the votes of students and minorities—since an August primary would be a universal vote suppressant. But more importantly, the bi-partisan Election Commissioner's Association wants a June primary, feeling the August date cuts too close to the Federal deadlines: "The NYS Election Commissioner's Association continues to impress the importance of moving the Federal primary date far enough in advance of the November General Election to ensure that no challenges and court actions threaten the timely mailing of overseas ballots," the commisioners write in the letter dated Monday. "We realize that the State Primary date may not accompany this change and our encouraging our legislative leaders to alter the Election Calendar to include both the Federal and State Primaries. We continue to endorse a permanent primary date change to the fourth Tuesday in June." In other words, a group made up of people who actually run elections, half made up of Republicans beholden to their Party leadership, thinks a June primary is the only way to ensure compliance with the Federal mandate. The consequence of failure to agree could be a Federal Court Judge imposing compliance—and since his jurisdiction in the matter applies only to Federal elections, the primary for State Legislators would remain in September. Since we have to have the Presidential primary before the nominating conventions, that means three primary elections this year statewide (not even counting the general, plus jurisdictions with Village and School Board elections). In their game of chicken, The Senate GOP, of which Mr. Eaton is a wholly owned subsidiary, is willing to impose upon taxpayers the costs of three statewide primaries. So please Craig, cry me no crocodile tears over the cost of having one little special election in time for the voters of southern Brooklyn to have a voice in the State's budget. "Some may argue that scheduling any Special Election with the April primary would result in a higher Republican turnout – a point Eaton dismisses based on recent history. 'Governor Cuomo scheduled the 9th Congressional special election for the same day as Democratic primaries in Brooklyn', said Eaton." Gerry must have pished in his pants when he wrote that one. First of all, it wasn't the date of the Democratic primary—it was the date for all primaries. Secondly, the only public office being filled in the Democratic Primary on the Brooklyn side of the 9th CD was for Civil Court Judge, which, in a year when nothing else is on the ballot, usually attracts a crowd somewhat larger than a minyan, but somewhat smaller than the lines at Movies at Sheepshead Bay. To further diminish turnout, the candidates in this primary turned out to be two black women no one had ever heard of, one of whom had a name which sounded black, and the other of whom had a name which sounded Latino). The only significant block of voters of either of these categories in the 9th CD was in the relatively small Sheepshead-Nostrand Housing Project (the old formerly black area of Sheephead Bay near the elevated tracks is now predominately Asian). Almost the only votes cast in the Civil Court race in the 9th CD were from voters who accidentally wandered into the second room after they cast their vote for Congress. In fact, both anecdotal evidence and the write in votes cast indicates that many voters who heard about the Turner/Weprin race didn't live in the district, and were angry when told they could only vote in the Civil Court primary, and that many took out their frustrations by writing in Bob Turner (or even David Weprin) for Civil Court Judge, In fact, I would argue that the Republican Primary for District Leader in the 45th AD between Joseph Hayon and Boris Pincus probably drew more voters to the polls in the 9th CD who might not have otherwise turned out than did the Democratic primary for Civil Court. Further, in Queens, besides a Council race, which probably didn't overlap the Congressional election by more than a block, the only public office up in 2011 was the race for DA, which everyone knew was not being contested, leaving a few overlapping GOP races for State Committee the only thing on most primary ballots besides the Special Elections. To compare such non-event elections to a highly contested race for the GOP nomination in their ability to draw partisans to the polls is just preposterous. The only race why Eaton might have a point is because of the NYS GOP's history of making sure that anyone but the choice of the Party's leadership is denied ballot access in their Presidential primary. If that's what you meant Craig, I apologize. Post new comment |

Making noticeable scars and stretch marks less noticeable is about more than science and skin. It's about a transformation in how people feel about themselves. At the end of that journey, people want to share their happiness. Mederma® users have some great stories about why they chose Mederma® and what happened when they did. Adventurous stories, sad stories, funny stories, love stories, stories of bravery and stories of success.
The Success Stories on this site have been sent directly to Merz by Mederma® users and we have not verified the accuracy of these testimonials. The benefits of using Mederma® may vary from person to person, and you may not achieve the same results as the Success Stories below.
I recently had my thyroid removed due to thyroid cancer. Having a scar in such an odd place (right across my neck) brings lots of questions and it makes me self-conscious to have to explain the whole "cancer thing" to strangers. I want this scar gone fast. Of course I looked up similar scars on the internet and some people still have theirs years later. So I got Mederma®. I've only been using Mederma® for a short time and my scar is 80% improved! I can't believe it. Woohoo!
I recently had a surgery to get a mole removed from my face. My plastic surgeon informed me it would leave a scar, but I didn't know what to expect. After the removal I started to notice the scar forming and couldn't believe how horrible it appeared. My surgeon told me once it was fully healed I could start applying Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel to it and I should see results in two months. After the first 4 weeks of using Mederma® I saw amazing results. It has been 4 months since my surgery and my scar is barely noticeable. Thank you Mederma® for making my scar almost vanish! :)
Years ago I was involved a car accident – it was a head-on collision – and even though I had my seatbelt on, my head hit the windshield. Fortunately, I didn't have any serious head injuries, but the glass shattered and cut me. From the middle of my forehead over on my right side was in pretty bad shape. It almost looked like a bear clawed my face. I also had a broken leg that they had to put a rod in to help it set properly, so I have a big scar on my hip. But my main concern at the time was my face. Everyone worries about their face – we're all thinking about how we look to other people when we're out in the world. So six months after the accident I had reconstructive surgery and after the stitches were removed, I used Mederma® religiously, every day, and it worked. I know if I hadn't used Mederma®, the scars on my forehead would be much more noticeable than they are. You can barely see them today. I'm really telling my story to let you know that if Mederma® worked for me, with how bad my injuries were, you shouldn't hesitate to use it for any scar you have, no matter how big or small it is. I still keep a tube of Mederma® handy at the house, because I'm always bumping into things and getting little cuts. My husband uses it too, for a scar he has from a shoulder surgery. I hope that if you're watching this because you or someone you love is self-conscious about a scar you'll go out and get Mederma® as soon as you can, because it's one of the best things I ever did for myself.
I used to have depression and a problem with self-harm. I was burning and cutting myself nearly every day, on my wrists, arms, legs, ankles, and chest. That's become the past. After I got out of that ditch, I wanted to make the scars look better. The pharmacist recommended Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel and I bought it without hesitation. After two months of using it, my scars are less noticeable! It's really wonderful.
Last summer, I got attacked by a dog. He ripped through my shirt and managed to tear into the skin on my stomach. It was so painful and the wound took a while to heal. My biggest worry was that I would be left with an ugly scar. To my horror, that is exactly what happened. I used oils, vitamin E, cocoa butter...NOTHING WORKED. Then I remembered a friend telling me she used Mederma® on her stretch marks and decided to try the gel for scars. I'm so happy to see the deep ugly scar looking better, slowly but surely. It is loads lighter in color than it was at first. I wish I had taken a picture of my scar when I first got it so everyone could see the difference now! I recently got a burn, but I'm not worried — Mederma® is there for me!!
I used Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel after surgery on my face for removal of a lesion. The scar was about 1.5-2 cm on my right cheek. After my wound healed, I started using the gel by massaging it in a few times a day — in the morning before putting on makeup and twice in the evening, as soon as I come home and just before going to bed. The gel has a light texture and absorbs into the skin quickly, so I could put makeup on and go to bed without worrying about having marks on the pillows. I'm very happy with the excellent results I got after three months. Take a look at my photos! My friends don't notice my scar as much, nor can I.
I can't praise Mederma® enough! A few years ago I had my thyroid removed and the surgery left a scar. I started using the original Mederma® as soon as I could and in a couple of months my scar was very difficult to detect. People really have to look closely to see it. Now I am using Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel on a new scar from stomach surgery. Thanks, Mederma®!
I got my belly button pierced two and a half years ago, right when I turned 18. I did it at a shop in the college town I go to school at, and never thought I'd have problems with it. Big mistake. It was done incorrectly, with too small of a gauge, the wrong type of metal jewelry, the wrong shaped jewelry — it was just a big mess. I had to get it taken out and I was left with an ugly belly button scar that resulted in me barely swimming over the summer because I was so embarrassed. Finally, fed up with the scar, I began using my roommate's Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel. I can already see it working! I'm so excited to be seeing changes and will recommend anyone who has an unflattering scar to try this product. It's made the scar look better and much lighter and I can't wait to repurchase!
I was very skeptical about using Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy. I tried many other products in the past, and spending more money on something I was not sure would work had me worried. But Mederma® is amazing. My stomach was very "wrinkly" after having my son, but after I started using Mederma® I could see a difference. This is the best product I have ever used for stretch marks. I tell everyone at work how it really did help me. Thank you Mederma®.
When I was a child I struggled with eczema and took steroids to help with it, but I gained weight, which caused stretch marks on my breasts and upper thighs. I didn't want to be tainted with stretch marks my entire life. I tried everything – cocoa butter, home remedies – nothing worked. Then I found out about Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy. I can barely see my stretch marks anymore. I'm so relieved that I don't have the burden of stretch marks forever on my back. Thank you so much Mederma®!
At age 21 I underwent surgery, leaving a two-inch incision across the front of my neck. I was nervous the scar would be very noticeable, so I started using Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel as soon as I was healed. I am very happy with the results! The redness and thickness of my scar have decreased significantly since I started using Mederma®. I would recommend this product to anyone who has a surgery scar.
After my surgery on my wrist I was so worried that I would have a huge ugly scar to keep forever. People would always notice it while I was working and would ask what happened to me. I remembered seeing commercials about Mederma® so I decided I would give it a try. I used it for a few months and it really did help. People no longer notice it while I'm working. It's not gone completely but Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel sure helped out a lot. My scar looks so much better than it used to. I'm not nearly as self-conscious about it like I used to be. My boyfriend just started using it on some of his scars and he's already seeing results.

And that was only the beginning of the official program of the sixth annual Honor Our Veterans Day Saturday at Candler Field Museum in Williamson.
"When I returned from Vietnam in 1967, I didn't receive a warm welcome from anyone but my family," said Candler Field Museum Director and Vietnam War veteran Ron Alexander. "Thank God that has changed. We now give them the respect that they deserve."
The distinguished speaker of the program, ret. Lt. General Ron Helmley, also recognized the veterans of the United States Armed Forces as a very special group.
"Today is our day to remember those who have served and those who are still serving," Helmley said. "Today we honor and embrace every warrior from every war."
The commanding general of the United States Army Reserve told the audience how he met numerous service members who felt their contributions were rather small - only to tell them that their efforts are just as crucial as those of any other service member.
"Our democracy depends on the willingness of our finest men and women to serve. Military service in the United States is not a job. It's a life of service and sacrifice," he said. "This is the land of the free and the home of the brave, and we are free because of the brave."
After the performance of patriotic songs by Sylvia Hollums, state Rep. and World War II veteran John Yates addressed the crowd, filling in for World War II Women's Army Corps veteran Helen Denton, who became sick the night before the ceremony.
"It's a great thing to be here today. I have great honor for all of you," Yates said as he shared some of his experience as an Air Force pilot during the war. "Don't let anybody kid you - war is hell."
The Griffin High School JROTC Drill team also showcased its skills before all five branches of the Unites States Armed Forces - Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force and Coast Guard - were recognized individually. Audience members lined up behind their service flags and walked past the stage while greeting and shaking hands with World War II veterans.
Toward the end of the program, the local Marine Corps League detachment performed a flag-folding ceremony and a rifle volley before playing taps. A missing-man formation concluded the event.

Wauwatosa boutique offers high fashion at low price points
Element Style's owners strive to create visual experience for customers
If there's something familiar about Element Style boutique, it might be that you've heard the name before.
And not just at the shop's original location in Delafield.
The boutique was named after Carrie Rozek and her husband Chris' other family business - My Element Style. Based in North Lake in Waukesha County, that Element Style features Anthropologie-esque salon accessories like aprons, scissor cases and barbicide jars Chris Rozek designs.
At the other Element Style - the new boutique on Harwood Avenue - Carrie Rozek offers clothing and accessories in a Restoration Hardware-type setting, where factory carts are tables and necklaces dangle from old door knobs affixed to reclaimed barn wood.
"We concentrate so much on the display part, so it's an experience just to come in," Rozek said. "And we fill the store with items that look expensive, but people are shocked at the prices."
Accessories start around $20. Jeans might go for $70, although they look like versions that cost closer to $120 in department stores.
It's a concept Rozek developed while running a home décor boutique for nearly 15 years. When that building was sold, she closed the shop to focus on her husband's business.
But the Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design graduate said she missed creating displays and really missed interacting with her customers.
"I wanted to go into something on a daily basis that wasn't trade shows and websites," Rozek said.
So in 2011 she opened the Element Style shop in Delafield. And in October she opened a second location in Wauwatosa.
"There's nothing else like it really in the area," she said of the city. "I just couldn't believe the energy. People walking around and the outdoor cafes. You just feel the community spirit."
So far, that community has been very welcoming.
"Everyone is so friendly," she said. "They stop in and say, 'We're glad you're here.' And they're happy about the price points."
That's important to her.
"Even though the shop looks cool, I want customers to feel like we sell to everybody," she said. "And that you don't have to make a lot of money to come into our store."

8. | Flava Flav | ||
rapper who loves to wear big clocks. he's in love with a girl named bridgette. Flave Flav says, "I SMOKE ROCKS!"
Flava Flav images | |||
1. | flava flav | ||
flava flav was the first crazy rapper wearing a big clock(the early version of the bling bling era).
The sentence : YEAH BOIIII , he used a lot, just like lil jon does these day's with his version oh-kaaay and such. public enemy was the group that made the first real hiphop, you can find traces of public enemy even in tupacs lyrics. legendary tracks where flava flav got famous with even with the mainstream:
fight the power bring that beat back Don't Believe the Hype Bring the Noise Rebel Without A Pause 911 Is A Joke Shut 'Em Down |
2. | Flava Flav | ||
A one-time, long ago rapper Pubic Enemy--and current coon act who wears an oversized clock around his neck to remind every one what time it is--never explain the attachment or its symbolism.
His Vh1 TV performance is based on reciting two or three same-sounding sentences about getting 'close' to females who are actually more stupid than he is with names like Krazy, New York and Deelishis whose collective goal is producing more illegitimate mirror image selves--another example of-- cool-hip black folks who want to remind us how guilty we should feel since the end of slavery 150 years ago--so we can support and forgive their still-clinging, semi-illiterate admiration of gansta-lov'in culture. Not be confused with the RedNeck--that perpetual sub-human group of honky-crackers proud of the red-soil southern roots, grits and confederate flag flying from their four-wheelers and Ford 150 pick-up trucks, complete with shot guns for killing deer, rabbits, coon, and all other unarmed, four legged creatures they slaughter daily before prayer time and Larry the Cable Guy. Similarities of Rednecks and Flava Flavs include a love for their Mothers--or MotherFuckers when you consider their individual and collective ability teach their children anything of lasting value save more illegitimate children. "Hey, Flava Flav, its time you paid child support...you fucking moron!"
3. | flava flav | ||
the most annoying rapper on the planet. not to mention ugly. Someone needs to get rid of flava flav! Literacy rates in the world would rise 45%!
4. | Flava Flav | ||
An ugly ass black guy that wears a huge shiny clock while walking around at night attracting attention (hoping no one will rob his ass) so cars can see him and dont run him over. His clock is a chick magnet and most of the time forgets he is wearing it, but is very useful for when i need to know what time it is i just put on his show. He is an old school rapper and was in Public Enemy which is all u need to know... If suddenly the urge to walk around at night and skwank some hoes, and if ur black or wearing black clothing, dont forget to wear ur old trustee flava flav signature 15 in. diameter clock for protection against incoming vehicles. Thats if u can afford one... Ha! Ha! Ha! Yeah Boi!!!!!
5. | Flava Flav | ||
The coolest fucking rapper in the universe...well, him and Chuck D, both of whom are in seminal rap group Public Enemy. Man, Flava Flav is funny. FUNNY LOOKIN'! WHAT,
6. | Flava Flav | ||
Verb - To not help someone in need since Flava Flav can't do nuttin' fo' you man because he's got problems of his own.
Sorry, but I can't Flava Flav you today. My car is in the shop.

About Jamie
Full name: Jamie Rogers
Phone: 703-203-4791
Birthday: June 14
My passion for journalism blossomed from my love of writing in my diary—something I have been doing regularly since I was 9 years old.
I found comfort in writing thoughts and ideas on paper and am still fascinated about being able to look back at my own words and recall memories, feelings and events.
I knew I wanted to be a journalist and never thought seriously about veering from that path as I earned a degree in journalism and mass communications from the University of South Carolina in Columbia in 2006.
Aspiring to immediately work for a large newspaper in a major city, I ended up back in my hometown of Florence, S.C., working for the Morning News, owned by Richmond, Va.-based Media General, Inc.
I originally viewed my acceptance of the job as a setback because I didn't want to be back in my home town. But I quickly realized the newspaper was fertile ground for me to grow as a journalist.
I covered news for six mostly rural counties in eastern South Carolina for the mid-sized newspaper. I met friends and acquaintances, and learned much about what I refer to as "the human element" during my four years as a public safety, crime and courts reporter.
This country girl's desire to live in a "big city" never subsided and in 2009, I made it my mission to find employment and move to Northern Virginia or Washington, D.C.
I got my wish in November of 2010 when I accepted a position with Patch as the local editor for Manassas Park, which turn out to be a perfect place for me, fresh off the country bumpkin boat, to hang a shingle.
In September, just shy of my new year anniversary as the Manassas Park Patch editor, I took on the role of local editor for the Manassas Patch site.
Politics & Religion
It has been said that a journalist cannot be politically unbiased. Well, I'm probably the closest thing to a poitically unbiased journalist there is.
I have been a Jehovah's Witness my entire life and all practicing members of my faith do not get involved in political affairs. Witnesses believe there is one God who created a world that it is impossible for humankind to govern correctly because of their imperfection.
This does not mean that I refuse to pay my taxes or participate in anarchist activities. The government leaders, although imperfect, are ministers of justice and lawfulness who exist to maintain some sort of order. So, we must respect our leaders and lawmakers and abide by all laws.
Hot button issues
Many people in Manassas and Manassas Park complain about their commute and the overall transportation situation in Northern Virginia. Residents say Route 28 desperately needs to be widen. Others say a bus lane, or a lane reversal system during commuting hours, needs to be created on the roadway.
Manassas Park residents continue to be disgruntled and discouraged by the lack of businesses in City Center, a mixed use development on the small city's main strip, Manassas Drive.
Resident also wonder how the city's limited amount of land will be developed.
In addition, Manassas Park residents are concerned about their property tax rates, as well as the city's financial debt.
In neighboring Manassas, there is an ongoing debate over the Amethyst Health Center for Women, a local clinic that performs abortions.
At many Manassas City Council meetings the only residents who address the council during citizens time are those who are either for abortion or those who are against it.
The early 20th Century home known as the Prescott House, located on Prescott Avenue near the heart of the city is in poor condition and many believe it should either be fixed or torn down immediately.
The fate of the Prescott House remains uncertain and the debate rages on ...

Hey Kris,
I did some checking on the work you see on Manassas Drive.
The work near City Hall and City Center is being done by Clark Realty, the owner of City Center as part of their agreement with the city. They will be doing that work for at least three weeks. Our public works department is investigating the leak problem further down Manassas Drive, like right in front of police department. Hopefully, I'll have a story on this stuff early next week :D Peace.

Hey Kris,
Nope we didn't go to dinner yet. We love you and wanted to wait for a time where we can all get together. Planning is tricky! But we'll work something out in the coming weeks. :)
