Shortly after the PS4's launch, Pornhub announced that it was the first porn site to fully support the PS4. Destructoid reached out to Pornhub following the announcement and got a load of interesting facts and breakdowns of console porn viewership.
According to Pornhub Vice President Corey Price, "Pornhub is targeting consoles for website support because that is where some of our users today prefer to access our site and our aim is to offer a great user experience across all platforms."
At least percentage wise, this intersection of porn and consoles rings true. The PS3, PS4, Wii, and Xbox 360 users who visit the site have a lower bounce rate than average traffic -- they're more likely to visit more pages rather than split after coming to the site. All four consoles also have a longer visit duration than average traffic, though that could come from those consoles being less efficient than PC visitation. It's hard enough typing on the Xbox 360, but with one hand?
The lion's share of console porn viewing comes from the PS3, which accounts for 55% of console traffic to the Xbox's 39% and the Wii's limp 6%.
What really sticks out, however, is what kind of porn each console indulges in.
view full story + commentsCouch co-op is sadly rare these days. Although I grew up playing games locally throughout my entire childhood, more often than not, split- or same-screen play is axed in favor of packing in more online features. Whether it's by way of "conserving resources" or pure laziness, it's becoming increasingly difficult to entertain a room full of people with videogames.
Thankfully, Spearhead Games' Tiny Brains opts for the best of both worlds, with both local and online play capabilities. Oh, and it's also a ton of fun -- with or without friends.
view full story + commentsAfter last week's PlayStation 4 review domination, Microsoft finally got it's chance to strut its stuff with the Xbox One. Forza Motorsports 5, Dead Rising 3, Killer Instinct, Crimson Dragon, Ryse, and a handful of other exclusive titles flooded our pages this week. But regardless of all the Xbox One hype, their games were far from the biggest titles of the week.
Two titles, fin fact, garnered our coveted 10 out of 10 score. Nintendo's Super Mario 3D World and from Little Big Planer creators, Media Molecule, Tearaway. If you've been holding out on either the Wii U or PS Vita, you may have just found your first two must have system-selling titles of the year.
Review Round-up: Week ending 11/16
Review Round-up: Week ending 11/9
We're almost there. With the release of the Xbox One just a few hours away, the torch will finally be passed, and what we've referred to as "next-generation" for years will simply become "this generation." Exciting times to be a gamer.
Of course, the release of the Xbox One doesn't simply make the Xbox 360 vanish into thin air. Games will still be developed for it for a long time to come, and a lot of people will probably just stick to their 360s for quite a while. That being said, it's undeniable that the focus will squarely shift to what's happening on Xbox One.
But, in a way, that shift can sort of be a tough pill to swallow. A lot of good things came out of the 360's lifespan. Just as we did with the Wii and the PS3, we want to reflect on our personal experiences with the Xbox 360 before setting our sights on Microsoft's new console. These were the Destructoid Staff's favorite Xbox 360 titles:
view full story + commentsBioShock Infinite was one of the most polarizing releases in recent memory among the gaming community. While a number of critics lauded it as an apex for Irrational, many fans were left feeling underwhelmed by certain facets of the design, some of which felt like a regression for the franchise.
I really enjoyed Infinite myself, but I'm also fully willing to admit that there were a number of design flaws that detracted from the experience. Some of those issues are directly addressed in Burial at Sea, but in the process, others are created. Uh oh!
view full story + commentsStar Wars, Indiana Jones, Batman (later the entirety of DC), Pirates of the Caribbean, Harry Potter, and The Lord of the Rings -- arguably a majority of the world's largest entertainment properties -- have all been brought to life in videogames after being passed through the adorable LEGO filter by Traveller's Tales. And, well, they've handled each franchise masterfully and created some truly great games with each of them over the years. What could possibly be next?
I can't be the only one who's been dreaming since LEGO Star Wars that we would one day see LEGO Marvel make its videogame debut, but, seeing as Traveller's Tales is a subsidy of Warner Bros., it was seemingly never going to happen. However, by some remarkable turn of events (due to the magic of licensing), here we are with LEGO Marvel Super Heroes.
It's nothing short of a miracle this game was even made, but it's something we can only be happy about.
view full story + commentsWhile Call of Duty is often regarded as the epitome of the annualized, cynically produced, lazily constructed videogame franchise, I've always maintained that both Infinity Ward and Treyarch expended much more effort than they were ever given credit for.
Whether it's the underestimated storytelling prowess of Modern Warfare or the noble efforts to revitalize the COD formula with Black Ops, the overwhelmingly popular series is far more cognizant of its own criticisms than many like to believe.
My defense of the consistent quality of Call of Duty has certainly caught criticism of its own. Indeed, I am lauded as a hypocrite for daring to suggest that Modern Warfare 3 was not objectively, factually, a mediocre game. I still believe that, and I still have respect for Call of Duty as a series. However, I've always been mindful that the gravy train cannot last forever, and as "military shooters" are in 2013 what World War II shooters were in 2008, it's high time Call of Duty underwent another dramatic transformation, the likes of which gave us the original Modern Warfare.
Black Ops II was a step forward in this regard, an earnest attempt to inject fresh life into a flagging idea. By comparison, Ghosts is not only a failure to capitalize on the goodwill Black Ops II earned, it's a disappointing step backward.
view full story + commentsAnother year, another Assassin's Creed.
Ubisoft hasn't shown any signs of slowing down on annual releases for the series, despite handily finishing its main story arc. Correctly identifying the best innovation of Assassin's Creed III as its naval combat, this latest title incorporates it as the defining feature and centers the narrative around pirate adventure in the early 18th century.
view full story + commentsThe most fun I've ever had in a Battlefield game was in 2010's Battlefield: Bad Company 2.
That's not to say it's the best title in the series or anything like that, mind you -- just that it arrived at the right time for me and offered a level of environmental destruction I found easy to fall in love with. If I'm allowed to blow open the side of a building and get the jump on an enemy, I'm going to do that. Over and over again. There doesn't even need to be an enemy.
Despite the fact that I'm not nearly as into military first-person shooters as I was even a couple of years ago -- repetitive sequels will do that to you -- Battlefield 4 has already, not even a full week after launch, surpassed my fondest memories of Bad Company 2.
view full story + commentsTelltale Games has today lifted the lid on The Walking Dead: Season Two. Another installment of utterly depressing zombie sorrow is coming out way. It is a time to be both excited and fearful. There will be so much sad!
As suggested by the screenshots and teaser trailer, players will now directly control Clementine, struggling to outwit the undead horde and, inevitably, some human shits who'll doubtless use the zombie plague to be terrible people. You know how it goes.
Set to begin "later this year," Season Two will appear as five episodes that can be purchased individually, or bought upfront for $22.49. Additionally, a "Game of the Year" edition of Season One will be sold for $29.99 before 2013 is over, and it'll include the 400 Days stopgap episode.
view full story + comments[Editor's Note: Our copy of Assassin's Creed IV came in late and, as a result, the review by Conrad Zimmerman will be tardy as well. We hope this piece by Chris will help tide you over.]
It turns out Ubisoft made good on its promise to not shove the modern day portion of Assassin's Creed IV down your throat. Throughout my time with the game, there are only a scant few portions that require you to venture outside of the exciting, debauchery-filled life of Edward Kenway, and into the present day.
But you know what? I actually spent a lot more time in it that I had initially planned, because the developers made an interesting call -- they made the real world sub-plot ancillary to the core game. And it was the right choice.
view full story + comments[Update: Official trailer added. Extinction is described as a "1-4 player cooperative game mode featuring a unique blend of fast-paced survival action, FPS base defense, scavenging and class leveling." Get to the chopper.]
I've always found Treyarch's Zombies mode to be a fun bonus for the studio's otherwise fairly serious Call of Duty games and have longed for Infinity Ward to offer something similar in its titles. Seems we may be getting exactly that in Call of Duty: Ghosts if an image of a loading screen for "Extinction" (shown below for the spoiler averse) is to be believed.
Aliens? Yeah, looks like it. There's been an official teaser that matches the design of the creature as well as achievements for Ghosts that reference the mode. Neat. I'd assume we'll hear more from Infinity Ward leading up to launch but, if not, that's only a week off.
Call of Duty: Ghosts Extinction Mode Teased, Loading Screen Image Leaked [MP1st]
view full story + commentsBatman: Arkham Origins had to endure a lot of cynicism from the peanut gallery as it rushed headlong from sudden announcement to pre-Christmas release. It's hardly surprising, too -- after the Arkham series earned high critical acclaim, the third installment appeared to be little more than a hollow cash-in.
It was set to be a contentious prequel, Warner Bros. announced downloadable content in tandem with the reveal of the full game, a pointless multiplayer mode was added, and it had switched developers from the beloved Rocksteady to the less lauded Warner Bros. Games Montréal and Splash Damage. Most people had come to expect little more than a stopgap release -- a bit of filler, made to scrape a quick buck off the Arkham name simply because that's what could be done.
Guess what. Arkham Origins is exactly what most people expected. Except slightly worse.
view full story + comments2K has just announced that the first major DLC for BioShock Infinite, Burial at Sea: Episode 1, will be available on November 12th for $14.99 (or included with your Season Pass). This date is a worldwide release for the PS3, 360, and PC, so no timed exclusive or staggered release nonsense here -- everyone is getting it at the exact same time.
Burial at Sea features a self described "film-noir" themed story as you explore the original BioShock's Rapture setting, and encounter some "old friends." I have no idea what to expect from it, but rest assured I'll be trying it out at launch with the rest of you. I'm just glad it's happening right before the massive double-console launch.
view full story + commentsDeus Ex: Human Revolution was quite the accomplishment when it was released. It wasn't everything an old-school Deus Ex fan could ask for (those boss fights), but it was a very reasonable compromise, and a great game in its own right.
Fast forward over two years later, and the Director's Cut is now gracing the twilight of the current console era, with new content and improved visuals in tow. While I'm not quite sure those extras are enough to sway fans who have already beaten the game from top to bottom, the good news is it's still the same great game we all enjoyed back in 2011.

Ivy League Teaming With NeuLion To Launch Digital Network In August
Published April 29, 2013
LIVE, ON-DEMAND CONTENT FEATURED: The live programming will consist of football and basketball, in addition to most Olympic sports. On-demand content will feature archived games. Four schools already work with NeuLion, so they will easily move their old games to the new format. The other four are beginning to work on the transition over to NeuLion's video platform. Schools handle production for events on their campus, while the Ivy League office will cover production for conference championship events. Events televised live by the conference's media partner, NBC Sports Network, or games sold to any other TV network will not be available on the digital network. The men's lacrosse championship rights are owned by ESPN. Advertising will be sold by NeuLion and the multimedia rights holders for each school. NeuLion's technology will enable the digital network to run traditional advertising, such as banner ads and pre-rolls, as well as dynamic advertising in the broadcast of a live event that targets advertising to specific markets. Promotion will be coordinated jointly by the league and NeuLion, and most of the outreach will focus on alumni through online and print advertising.

We use a combination of French and American oak to add different spice nuances as well as fruit from Sonoma County.

At first, diabetes can seem like too much to handle. It affects so many parts of life—what and when to eat, for example. And when your child has diabetes, you have to learn about a lot of things, such as insulin shots and testing your blood and urine.
Learning to live with diabetes can be a challenge. When your child is first diagnosed, you may have questions, concerns and fears. But although diabetes is a serious, life-long condition, there are millions of people with diabetes who live happy, normal lives.

Ischemic Stroke
(Cerebrovascular Accident; CVA; Cerebral Infarct)
En Español (Spanish Version)More InDepth Information on This Condition
Definition | Causes | Risk Factors | Symptoms | Diagnosis | Treatment | Prevention
Stroke is a brain injury caused by an interruption in blood flow. Brain tissue that does not get oxygen and nutrients from blood can die within minutes. The damage to the brain can cause a sudden loss in bodily functions. The types of function that are affected will depend on the part of the brain that is damaged.
There are two blood flow problems that cause a stroke. Strokes may be ischemic or hemorrhagic.
- An ischemic stroke is caused by a blocked blood vessel. It is the most common cause of stroke.
- A hemorrhagic stroke is caused by a ruptured blood vessel.
Hemorrhagic vs. Ischemic Stroke
An ischemic stroke occurs when something stops the flow of blood. It may be a buildup or swelling of the walls of the blood vessels and/or something in the blood that becomes stuck in the blood vessel. A blockage in a small blood vessel will affect a smaller area of the brain. A blockage in larger blood vessels can block the flow of blood to several smaller blood vessels, leading to more brain damage.
The blockage may be the result of one or more of the following:
- Atherosclerosisa build-up of fatty substances along the inner lining of the artery that gradually decrease the area the blood can flow through
- A blood clot that has traveled from other parts of the body such as the neck or heart
- Inflammation of the blood vessels
Risk Factors
Certain factors increase your risk of stroke but can not be changed, such as:
- RacePeople of African American, Hispanic, or Asian/Pacific Islander descent are at increased risk.
- Age: Older than 55 years of age
- Family history of stroke
Other factors that may increase your risk can be changed such as:
- Drug abuse from cocaine, amphetamines, or heroin use
- Smoking
- Physical inactivity
Certain medical condition that can increase your risk of stroke. Management or prevention of these conditions can significantly decrease your risk. Medical conditions include:
- High blood pressure
- High cholesterol levelsspecifically high-LDL bad cholesterol
- Obesity and metabolic syndrome
- High blood homocysteine level
- Atherosclerosis
- Diabetes mellitus or impaired glucose tolerance
- Atrial fibrillation
- Blood disorders such as sickle cell disease and polycythemia
- Disease of heart valves, such as mitral stenosis
- Prior stroke or cardiovascular disease, such as heart attack
- Peripheral artery disease
- Transient ischemic attack (TIA) a warning stroke with stroke-like symptoms that go away shortly after they appear
- Conditions that increase your risk of blood clots such as:
- Cancer
- Certain autoimmune diseases
- Migraine with aura
- Having a blood vessel abnormality
Risk factors specific to women include:
- Previous pre-eclampsia
- Use of birth control pills, especially if you are over 35 years old and smoke
- Long-term use of hormone replacement therapy
- Menopause
- Pregnancydue to increased risk of blood clots
Symptoms occur suddenly. Exact symptoms will depend on the part of the brain affected. Rapid treatment is important to decrease the amount of brain damage. Brain tissue without blood flow dies quickly.
Call for emergency medical services right away if you notice any of the following sudden symptoms:
- Weakness or numbness of face, arm, or leg, especially on one side of the body
- Confusion
- Trouble speaking or understanding
- Trouble seeing in one or both eyes
- Lightheadedness, trouble walking, loss of balance, or coordination
- Severe headache with no known cause
A physical exam will be done to look for muscle weakness, visual and speech problems, and movement difficulty. If possible, you will be asked about your symptoms and medical history.
Images may be taken of your bodily structures. This can be done with:
- CT scan
- MRI scan
- Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA)
- CT angiogram (CTA)
- Doppler ultrasound
Blood tests can also help determine if there is a bleeding problem.
Immediate treatment is needed to open the blocked blood vessel. This should restore blood flow to the brain tissue and stop further damage.
Treatment after immediate care will aim to:
- Reduce the chance of later strokes
- Improve function affected by the stroke
- Overcome disabilities
Supportive care may also include:
- Oxygen therapy
- Precautions to prevent choking
Certain patients will receive a group of drugs called thrombolytics. These medications can rapidly dissolve blood clots. They are often given by IV but can be delivered directly to the arteries where the blood clot is. These medications need to be given within hours after the start of symptoms to be effective. That is why it is important to get medical help right away if stroke symptoms develop.
Aspirin and other medications that decrease the risk of blood clot formation may be recommended after immediate care is done. These medications may prevent future strokes from occurring.
To help manage other health issues and decrease the risk of future strokes the doctor may recommend medication to:
- Decrease blood pressure
- Correct irregular heart rhythms
A surgery may be done to allow blood flow back into the affected area such as:
- Extracranial/intracranial bypassblood vessel from the scalp is used to reroute blood supply around the blocked artery
- Embolectomya catheter is threaded through blood vessels to the clot. It can remove the clot or deliver clot-dissolving medication directly to the area
A stroke can cause swelling in the brain. A decompressive surgery, such as craniotomy, may be needed to relieve the pressure in the brain to prevent damage.
Other surgeries may be performed following a stroke to prevent a recurrence. These surgical options include:
- Carotid endarterectomy (CEA)fatty deposits are removed from major arteries in the neck.
- Carotid angioplasty and stentinga procedure to widen and support the major artery in the neck with a mesh tube. The procedure will help open the artery and allow better blood flow.
If brain tissue was damaged, rehabilitation can be an important part of your recovery. Rehabilitation may include:
- Physical therapyto regain as much movement as possible
- Occupational therapyto assist in everyday tasks and self care
- Speech therapyto improve swallowing and speech challenges
- Psychological therapyto improve mood and decrease depression
Many of the risk factors for stroke can be changed. Lifestyle changes that can help reduce your chance of getting a stroke include:
- Exercise regularly.
- Eat more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Limit dietary salt and fat.
- Stop smoking.
- Increase your consumption of fish.
- Drink alcohol only in moderation: no more than 1-2 drinks per day.
- Maintain a healthy weight.
- Check blood pressure frequently . Follow your doctor's recommendations for keeping it in a safe range.
- Take a low dose of aspirin if your doctor says it is safe.
- Keep chronic medical conditions under control. This includes high cholesterol and diabetes.
- Talk to your doctor about the use of a statins. These types of drugs may help prevent certain kinds of strokes in some people.
- Seek medical care if you have symptoms of a stroke, even if symptoms stop.
- If you abuse drugs, talk to your doctor about rehabilitation programs.

Window treatments can offset cabinetry in kitchen decorApr 5 2011 Today's kitchens are often multi-function rooms. As different functions are served in today's kitchen, a multitude of designs have been developed to carry out those activities. Setting up a small desk area in a corner of the kitchen, for instance, means designing an area that will coordinate with shelving units and won't disrupt the travel patterns needed for food preparation. "Whether [planning] an extension or an existing room that's ready for a revamp, make sure that the zones can be realistically accommodated, easily reached and effectively used," according to Essential Kitchen Bathroom Bedroom magazine. "They should be near enough for those present to fluently have a conversation, but not so close that two can't pass freely between." While high-gloss finishes such as stainless steel are a leading choice for new appliances, many homeowners are choosing to mix and match different colors for a personalized decorating style. One way to tie cabinetry into window treatments for windows that fall between cabinets is to install a valance in matching wood tones or woven shades in natural materials. Either can be paired with curtains for a softer, decorative look. Related Products

A skin self-exam (SSE) is an examination of your skin that you do for yourself (or with a friend or partner). It is a way for you to notice any changes or abnormalities in your skin. It is a good way to spot skin cancer early.
The American Cancer Society (ACS) recommends that you do an SSE every month. You should also have a clinical cancer-related checkup with your doctor during your periodic health exams.
The best time to do a SSE is after a shower or bath. Make sure the room is brightly lit.
If you notice any changes or abnormalities, see your doctor right away. Be particularly alert for new dark spots as these could be melanomas. Melanomas are a particularly dangerous form of skin cancer that can be completely cured if found early and completely removed. Most melanomas are brown, blue, black, or multi-colored with browns, reds, blues, and blacks. The majority of melanomas begin as flat colored patches, usually (but not always) with irregular borders. They may itch or bleed, but most melanomas cause no symptoms. Rarely, melanomas may lack color entirely. Some may grow as raised bumps. Melanomas can occur anywhere on the body, including the scalp, back, and feet where people may not look carefully enough. Look for asymmetric moles, moles with irregular borders, multicolored moles, and large moles. These are the most concerning, especially if they are evolving or changing.
Your skin offers you wonderful protection from the outside world, but it can also be the site of cancers and other serious problems. Treat your skin as well as it treats you: If you see something new or suspicious, let your doctor take a look at it.

Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011
I wil also be riding, not for the food (as I don't even know if there is one on the way to work) But to supprt the 'ride to work day'. I wil be doing a nice round trip of 75km.. The dutch have one word to describe the aussie MHL, this word is ;
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011I've been putting up posters, calling local sponsors for a breakfast etc. here and got absolutely bloody nowhere.
I think I ended up with 3 whole registered users for the UNE - one of 'em was me. Tiny place with low traffic and few impediments to cycling, lots of people with bikes, nobody terribly interested in it. Commuting is apparently only for nutters and the poverty/license impaired. I give up. So we get the leaders we deserve and we elect, we get the companies and the products that we ask for, right? And we have to ask for different things. – Paul Gilding
but really, that's rubbish. We get none of it because the choices are illusory.
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011I'll be riding, just like I do every day. No free breakfast near where I'm riding though.
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011Yup - Ride almost everyday, but looking forward to seeing more people out on bikes.
Will be at Hyde Park South for the breakie, 2012 Giant TCR 2 & poverty stricken Cell jersey, the blue one. Cheers, JM
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011im riding to parramatta.
if i can work out where the food is ill be there. i wasnt going to be able to make it but i had a family of patients reschedule so my morning opened up!
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011
I know what you mean, I've put up the posters you gave me and spread the word but most seem happy just riding their normal route at the normal time. What's worse is a few days ago I completely messed up my illiotibial bands so I can't even walk properly, so I'll send my apologies for if I don't make it on my bike tomorrow...
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011I'm always punctual and wouldn't you know it, they were setting up the breakfast function on the north side of the harbour bridge at 6.45am today....no brekky for me!
damn these early starts at work!
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011No ride for me today. I was too disorganised to arrange all my clothes etc at work. Not that it would've mattered anyway - I'm on call, which means I have to be able to deal with operational problems straight away. Tough to do if I'm on the bike. And... this morning I got called. I'm still sitting in front of the computer at home dealing with this outage. Blah.
Max One of the best things about bicycle commuting is that it can mitigate the displeasure of having to go to work. - BikeSnobNYC
Cycling is sometimes like bobbing for apples in a bucket full of dicks. - SydGuy
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011I made it in and got my free breakfast at work. We had 50 people registered, which seemed pretty good for a workplace of around 1500.
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011i made it!
tested out the bicycle route too, as my previous rides had been super early and id just gone straight down the main road. im quite suprised my shirt isnt too scrunched from being shoved in my backpack - it actually looks better than when the ironing lady does it! now at least i can leave my shower stuff at work so i wont have to carry as much tomorrow
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011Less bikes on the rode then normal today! Maybe everyone was using the bike paths.
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011
I think people are just too lazy. I parked yesterday on level 3 of the car park, the exit walkway is on level 2. Yet everyone was waiting for the lift instead of waling 1 level of stairs.
ride to work day 12/10/2011Hmmm... Bit of a flop here... Got there at 7:40 and there was cheese rolls and some water left.
Once you can climb hills on a bike it's all downhill.
Hopefully I'll know what that's like..... one day.
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011I got out the dually Norco as it is not getting a lot of love atm. It was a great morning here in Toowoomba to ride to work and I hope it stays that way tonight for the trip uphill to home. My commute is 5km each way with a bit of traffic down the main drag into the CBD. It would have been a lot quicker trip if I had taken the roadie but it gets ridden at least 3 times a week so it can wait till tomorrow morning's training ride.
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011rode in.. as usual. didn't see a lot of bikes, but i was a bit late this morning.
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011Rode in, got french toast at the gov't breakfast, with juice and muffins and tarts... its worth riding 5km for it
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011Beautiful morning in Sydney for riding. Plenty of people on their bikes, but it didn't feel unsafe at all.
My favourite thing was my wife coming in with me (her third time) and actually enjoying it! Best comment - "that wasn't hard at all". Really enjoyed seeing all types (bikes and people) at Hyde park. Thanks to Bakers Delight for the breakkie snacks. "If I can bicycle, I bicycle" ~David Attenborough
Re: ride to work day 12/10/2011Did the ride to work thing with a workmate - via Rookwood and Prospect Canal Cycleway then on to Eastern Creek.
Work organised a breakfast, and escort vehicle for the last few km's of shonky B-double laden road. About half the peeps who had signed up for the Ride To Work pulled out at the last minute. So drubie, you're not alone in poor hit rates with recruiting converts. Sunshine was brilliant, even if 8 degrees at 6 am wasn't real warm. Was surprised that we passed only 4 other riders over 40 km (2 women, 2 guys). Possibly starting too early for most or maybe it's just because we were riding away from the CBD and into the back-blocks of Sydney. Cheers WombatK

Sedu Revolution Ulitmate Styler Set DZDF
Sedu Revolution Tourmaline Ionic Styling...SondraMerritt Island, Fl - Where Dreams Are Launched!Great ProductBought this for my daughter to take off to college. She claims that she likes it much better than her old Chi (which she has now passed down to her sisters). She likes that it has tempaerature settings and she says that it is easier to compress than the Chi.posted Jan 30, 2008Link to this post
Sedu Revolution Tourmaline Ionic Styling...AnonymousCincinnati, OHSedu Revolution NanoI have been a loyal Sedu flat iron user for years. Thanks to all the reviews that I read prior to purchasing my first flatiron on Folica, I decided to buy the Sedu. It worked great until recently when the hinge became a little loose. So I decided to do some more research into purchasing a new iron. I settled on the new Sedu Revolution Nano. I was the best decision I have made!!!!! This flat iron is so much better than any other iron I have used! It is rounded at the tip, making it easier to hold and to style. It heats up quickly and most importantly if the hinge becomes loose, you can tighten it. You can easily style your hair in a number of ways. I would like to not only thank all the reviewers who helped me make my purchase but also folica for their quick and easy service and fast delivery!posted Jan 30, 2008Link to this post
Sedu Revolution Tourmaline Ionic Styling...Sedu UserChicago ILHairAsianChemically Treated HairLong HairGreat IronBought this iron 2 months ago and it is fabulous. I never had a flat iron before, returned the last one I bought because it dried out my hair like there was a drought. This Sedu heats up FAST, and Im ready to go in like 5 minutes (after blowdrying). I have thick Asian long hair, slightly wavy. Wavy annoying, not wavy cute. This iron leaves my hair super shiny and straight. I have the CHI heat protectant, and that works great. Spray first, comb through, blowdry, and see the difference.posted Jan 29, 2008Link to this post
Sedu Revolution Tourmaline Ionic Styling...JackieRichmond, VA1" Sedu Revolution Nano Ceramic Tourmaline Hair StylerI bought 2 of these at Christmas for my girls and they absolutely love them. We have girls coming over to our house to get ready in the mornings so they can borrow our Sedu!!posted Jan 28, 2008Link to this post
Sedu Revolution Tourmaline Ionic Styling...LseddinsWorth It.I am not a trained hair stylist and I get impatient when styling my thick somewhat wavy hair that looks frizzy if I just blow dry it. This straightener gives me wonderful results. Even if I "shortcut" and only give attention to the top layers and the ends, I still get good results. I really like the fact that I can smooth the ends under with the same tool used to straighten.posted Jan 28, 2008Link to this post
Sedu Revolution Tourmaline Ionic Styling...AnthonyBrooklyn, NyGirlfriend Christmas GiftI purchased the Sedu tourmaline hair styler 2008 model for my girlfriend for Christmas and so far she loves it she says it those a better job then the salon she goes too she keeps braging how straight her hair comes out im just glad i didnt spend money on garbage since im a guy and dont know crap about these hair stuff lol.posted Jan 28, 2008Link to this post
Sedu Revolution Tourmaline Ionic Styling...LaurieMoist OregonSedu RevolutionI got this for my daughter after she asked for one for Christmas. She has very thick hair. I do too. She came out of the bathroom and gave me a big hug, she said it works awesome and then proceeded to straighten everyones hair... It is better than the one we bought at the mall.posted Jan 28, 2008Link to this post
Sedu Revolution Tourmaline Ionic Styling...AnonymousChicago, ILHairCurly HairShort HairWorks Well On Short Hair, Curly/frizzyThis is my first time using this type of product. The video was helpful; my hair is straight and silky, not overdried, when I use it and I can sleep on it and the hairstyle looks good the next day! I have short curly hair with frizzy areas, and this tool works well. My hair does not seem dried out from use (I dont use it every day).posted Jan 28, 2008Link to this post
Sedu Revolution Tourmaline Ionic Styling...Someone From TnTNAwsomeI am african american, and I have tried several flat irons and they all were the same. After reading several review, I decided to try the sedu out. I was amazed at how straight it gets my hair and well it curls my hair. It does not take long to straighten my hair with the sedu 2008. The sedu 2008 is by far the best straightner that I have purchased.posted Jan 27, 2008Link to this post
Sedu Revolution Tourmaline Ionic Styling...TeddieNJ, USAHairCurly HairShort HairSuccess On The First Try!!I am just over fifty, and have curly, frizzy hair, which I have been wearing in a curly chin-length bob for some time. Although I like having curly hair, I was tired of the same style for so long. I had my reservations on using a flat iron, since I was an utter failure at any sort of blow/heat styling methods Ive tried in the past. My very first use of the Sedu Revolution Nano was a shocking success! *Shocking* because I didnt think I could get the hang of doing it, and *success* because my curly bob was transformed into a straight, sleek, and sophisticated style in less than twenty minutes! I never, never, thought it would be so easy. Now I can love my curly hair *and* my straight hair.posted Jan 26, 2008Link to this post
