FOS Gets Physical for Céline-------
Beneath Phoebe Philo's athletic, streamlined wares for Céline, the designer has her quirks—remember Spring '13′s fur-lined Birkenstocks or Fall '13′s tied-sleeve coats? That penchant for the unconventional will soon extend to the brand's London flagship, which, opening in September, will feature furniture by Danish artist FOS.
"Fashion is a two-faced being. On one side, the value it produces mirrors our time, but on the other, it is a giant retail spider," FOS (née Thomas Poulsen) told Style.com from Copenhagen. It's a fitting sound-off for an artist-cum-ergonomist who seemingly lives somewhere between fantasy and reality—just look at his oddly storelike installations that skew perceptions of space, purpose, dreams, and cognition. Reinterpreting his vision for an actual sales environment, FOS seamlessly transitioned from what he described as the "phenomenal" world into the "physical" one, creating singular, and surprisingly practical, accents like golden, tubular lamp shades and earthen table stands. FOS added, "This marks the high point in collaborating with Céline. Design has always been a part of my artistic frame, which by its nature is part of fashion's."
FOS' furniture for Céline will be available via special order through London's Max Wigram Gallery. Price upon request.

Keep DeFilippis and Weir on Academy X
Nunzio DeFilippis and Christina Weir, writers of New X-Men: Academy X, have been removed from the creative team, allegedly because of a slip in sales. This title has been one of the top sellers since its inception. The lack of a lasting penciller and the awkward title must be taken into consideration. Fans agree that the book has not been marketed well, being placed on the back burner while characters from stagnant, delayed titles (e.g. X-23 from NYX) have been pushed into the spotlight. We are aware of big plans Nunzio and Christina have for the book and its characters, many of whom were created by them, and it is grossly unfair to the writers and to us to force them off the book so prematurely. We request that you reverse the decision and keep Nunzio and Christina on Academy X where they belong, and where they want to be.

Nike CEO Phil Knight claims he isn't responsible for sweat-shop conditions in his shoe factories because workers are sub-contractors and don't work for him. Similarly consumers are often unaware of the sweatshop conditions and environmental degradation needed to produce the low-cost goods we take for granted. In both cases the problem is what Richard McIntyre in his book Are Human Rights Worker Rights? calls moral distance.
Moral distance is built into the dominate economic system to ensure that inequitable power arrangements are maintained. It prevents solidarity from developing between exploited workers and consumers, allows corporate elites to avoid responsibility and makes it seem that cleared forests, dying coral reefs etc. are someone else's problem.
According to McIntyre, progress could be made in bridging this divide if more emphasis was given to expanding the rights of workers to free association and collective bargaining. Worker solidarity would then grow to combat exploitation and domination. Instead individual human rights are favored over collective rights allowing moral numbness to dominate social relations. I would add that expanding collective rights further to include the "more than human" world would ease pressure on collapsing ecosystems.

PolitiFact Georgia recounts Mitt Romney's Greatest Hits
Editor's note: With the Iowa caucuses only two months away, PolitiFact Georgia will dedicate this week to summaries of key fact-checks on the leading GOP candidates as well as President Barack Obama's performance on his 500 campaign promises. Today we look at Mitt Romney. Want to comment on our findings? Visit us on Facebook. "The people in Massachusetts like [the state health care plan] by about a 3-1 margin." This was a defense of his record on health care -- when he was governor of Massachusetts -- during an Oct. 11, 2011, debate in Hanover, N.H., where he took heat for signing into law a health care program similar to the reforms passed nationally in 2010. Romney has strong support for this claim. A recent survey by a credible pollster found the ratio of support to opposition for the Massachusetts law at 3 to 1, and other polls suggest levels of support even higher. So we rate Romney's statement True.

Yes he Cain?
Who would have thought that presidential long shot Herman Cain would become the sweetheart of the Republican field? On Friday, the Georgian appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Sunday, he was on ABC's "This Week" with Christiane Amanpour. Monday he hobnobbed with developer Donald Trump. He even gabbed with the ladies of The View. His new memoir "This is Herman Cain! My Journey to the White House" cracked Amazon's top 10 list. This political Cinderella tale might not be a fantasy. A CBS poll released Tuesday shows Cain tied with front runner former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney for first place. Support for the political newbie more than tripled to 17 percent of likely Republican voters in only two weeks. Other polls have also placed him at or near the top of the race.

Have you been accumulating American Airlines "Advantage Miles" for years, saving them for that dream trip?
As of Thursday, you might have to go to plan "B."
Rules regarding non-expiring miles earned before July 1, 1989 are changing. Those "old miles" will convert to miles that expire, and more miles will be required for a free ticket.
Fliers can keep those converted miles from expiring by earning or redeeming miles at least once every 18 months.

Building a Budget
Building a Budget — Take control of your finances with a spending plan
Gather your data
Start by gathering all of your financial statements, including those for bank and investment accounts. Get out pay stubs and all other information about your income sources. Add up all income for the year and divide by 12 to get a monthly income figure.
Next, you're ready to list expenses. If you bank online or use accounting software, it's easy to see how much you spend for almost every item. Otherwise, you'll have to gather bills for utilities, cars, rent or home mortgage, cable TV, phones and other expenses. Don't forget retirement plan contributions. Include expenses that come around once or twice a year like insurance premiums and average them into monthly costs. List variable expenses like food, dining out, and gifts, and again, average several months of these costs to get a monthly estimate. Remember: small impulse buys can really add up over time, so include all of your incidental spending. Use our worksheet so it's easier to track everything.
Building a budget may only take about 30 minutes and you'll enjoy the benefits for years.
Get your balance
What you're aiming for is a number in the total expenses column that is less than the number in the total income column. This indicates that you're earning more than you're spending. Use any excess to save more for retirement and other goals.
If it turns out you're spending more than you're making, it's time to go back to your expense worksheet and look for ways to cut back. Consider cutting out items you can do without.
Review regularly to stay on track
Check your worksheet regularly to make sure you continue to have a surplus. The whole point of this exercise is to minimize the use of credit cards, stay out of debt and save more. The result will be a sense of confidence that comes from knowing you are in control of your finances.

Have you heard of eLearning? If you have, then you probably already know that it's taking the world of higher education by storm and that more students than ever are enrolling in online degree programs. How does it work and will it really continue to grow?
Many people believe that eLearning is revolutionizing education and that the future of higher education actually does lie with online learning. More and more students now have obligations such as work and family that make obtaining a degree difficult. These commitments command their time and therefore attending classes is difficult. Taking classes online through eLearning, however, is important since it allows them flexibility that traditional classes have not offered in the past. Continue reading… »

In 1967, CCAC started a GED program in Pittsburgh's Homewood Brushton community. The program was soon expanded to include an Adult Basic Education Center offering college credit.
By 1981, the rapid growth and popularity of the programs demanded construction of the Homewood Brushton Center, a two story, 32,000 square foot facility housing classrooms, a Learning Resource Center, a reading lab, two fully equipped computer labs, 2 e-learning rooms and one presentation room (high technology rooms) a science resource room and a state of the art science lab for anatomy and physiology, chemistry and microbiology courses.
The HBC is located in the heart of Homewood and is convenient to bus routes and the Martin Luther King East Busway. For the CCAC—Homewood-Brushton Center contact person, phone number and address, see the HBC Contact Us page.
The site offers
Community EducationCCAC is proud of its relationships with Community agencies, particularly the YMCA where we offer HPE, Health and Physical Education classes.
HBC is excited about the addition of a new Multicultural and Diverse course offering in the Ethnic and Diversity Studies Department (ETH) Under the leadership of Dr. Ralph Proctor, an array of courses were developed to expand the cultural and historical awareness of our student body.
The Homewood Brushton Center offers a Barber Training Program in partnership with Wade's Barber shop and Salon, located adjacent to HBC. The 1250 hour program will train consumers to become Barbers and allow them to sit for the licensure test. In the near future, the Center is looking to offer some new and innovative programming to meet the needs of our communities in the Pittsburgh area.
Through a partnership with the Greater Pittsburgh Literacy Council, free GED preparation classes are offered two days a week at CCAC Homewood-Brushton Center. The class meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
The course focuses on each of the five sections of the GED examination: Reading, Social Studies, Science, Mathematics and Writing.
Interested individuals should contact Greater Pittsburgh Literacy Council (GPLC) at 412.393.7600 to register. All incoming students must attend an orientation before joining the class.
Students can contact the Deans of Student Development with questions relating to more than 30 topics, like student accounts, financial aid, graduation or job placement & career services.

In recently recorded history, over something like a century and encompassing thousands of players, only three active major leaguers have been murdered.
Monday, Mariners outfielder Greg Halman became the third.
The second was Angels outfielder Lyman Bostock, murdered by a stranger near the end of the 1978 season. Essentially, Boston made the mistake of happening to sit in the back seat of a car next to a woman — a woman he'd met just minutes earlier — whose estranged husband was out of his mind with jealousy. The husband pulled up next to the car and discharged a shotgun, supposedly with the intention of killing his wife but Bostock took the blast in his head and died two hours later.
The assailant's counsel argued temporary insanity and won, and so he spent only 21 months in jail. As Bill James wrote, "The murderer, Leonard Smith, received a light sentence because, as I understand it, he was able to prove that he didn't ordinarily kill people, but just happened to be in a particularly bad mood that day." Smith died in 2010, having not run seriously afoul of the law in the previous three decades.
The first was Miguel Fuentes, who is the answer to another trivia question: Who was the last man to pitch for the Seattle Pilots?
Fuentes debuted with the Pilots on the 1st of September in 1969; Jim Bouton had just been traded to Houston, so Fuentes was not memorialized in Ball Four. In his third appearance and first start, Fuentes pitched a complete game and beat the White Sox, 5-1. His succeeding outings didn't go as well, but he did finish the season — the Pilots' first and last season, as it turned out — with one scoreless frame against the A's in Seattle.
After the season, Fuentes returned to his native Puerto Rico. He played winter ball there. Shortly after that season ended and shortly before he would have returned to the States for spring training, Fuentes got involved in a bar fight, was shot three times, and died.

Pearl River shifted defensive tactics early, but never did find a way to stop Albertus Magnus guard Jack Sullivan.
Sullivan poured in 31 points to lead Albertus to a 58-56 victory at Pearl River Tuesday.
"It was our inability to deal with Jack Sullivan," Pearl River Head Coach Jerry Houston, Jr. said. "He had a huge game. He played really well. Made a lot of tough shots. He's got a very quick release and tonight he shot a high percentage."
Sullivan helped Albertus Magnus (8-2) take control early, making four 3-point shots and finishing with 14 points in the first quarter alone, when the Falcons took a 19-9 lead.
Pearl River's offense also revolved around one player as junior forward Kevin Degnan led the Pirates with 30 points. Houston said missed opportunities were costly for Pearl River, which dropped to 5-4.
"I thought we had some advantages in 2-on-1 or 3-on-2 and had a chance to finish around the basket, but didn't turn it into points," Houston said. "Like Kevin's breakaway in the first half. The ball gets knocked out of his hands (by Sullivan), goes out of bounds and we get no points."
Houston also pointed to some missed shots inside in the fourth quarter and a steal by Sullivan, who stripped the ball from Degnan after a rebound with about three minutes left and the Pirates within two.
"We have to learn how to win," Houston said. "It sounds stupid. Just score more points than the other team, but it's making those plays. Being stronger around the basket. Securing the ball. Knocking down free throws. We had opportunities slip away tonight."
Pearl River will have to rebound quickly with a game at Tappan Zee set for 7 p.m. Friday. The .
"There is not a lot of time to dwell on it," Houston said. "We have to be ready for a physical game Friday."

Dad wins right to see report into rape of his son, 10, by killer Stephen Ayre
7:00am Thursday 30th January 2014 in News By Julie Tickner, Bradford Chief Reporter
A father's wait of almost eight years to see a full report about the brutal murderer who raped his ten-year-old son is finally over.
The man, with the help of MP Philip Davies, has been pushing since 2006 to see the full outcome of the probation service investigation, which looked at how convicted killer Stephen Ayre was able to go on to attack the boy ten months after he was released from prison.
Ayre was let out of jail in 2005 – 20 years into a 25-year sentence for the murder of Irene Hudson, 25, in Shipley in 1984.
Serious Further Offence Reviews (SFO) are carried out when offenders go on to commit another serious crime, but not routinely shown to families.
In 2008 a summary of the report was released, but the boy's father wanted to see the whole report.
Now Mr Davies' lobbying has led Justice Secretary Chris Grayling to agree that the family can see the full SFO.
The father, who cannot be named to protect his son's identity, yesterday said he hoped seeing it would bring some peace.
"I was surprised that they're allowing me to see it. I didn't expect it to happen," he said, adding that he has often asked himself what he hopes to gain from reading it.
"I really don't know, maybe some closure finally. There's got to be an end to it and I suppose this is the end.
"There comes a point that you've got to accept that something terrible has happened and no matter how much you wish it hadn't, it did. For your own sanity you've got to accept it."
The man is also hoping to see an internal review into the decision to release Ayre on life sentence in 2005 at the same time.
Mr Grayling's decision was explained in a letter to Mr Davies.
The Justice Secretary referred to requirements introduced in 2013 for probation trusts to produce a victim summary report, based on SFOs.
He said the Government believed that "the victims of serious further offences committed by offenders under statutory supervision should have the right to know how those offenders were managed by the criminal justice agencies – including where those agencies might have failed to do what reasonably might have been expected of them."
The father will not receive a copy of the report, but will travel to London to read it – perhaps with his son, who is now 18.
"It's a difficult thing to be in because one part of you wants to completely forget it and the other part needs answers. It's very difficult to decide which is the better thing to do," he said.
"Eventually you need to close this horrible box through. I've asked myself if I need to read this, but I think it's something I've got to do."
Ayre, of Bingley Road, Shipley, was sent back to prison in April 2006 for the abduction and rape of the boy, with a whole life tariff.
In 2012, he appealed against the sentence, leading to the tariff dropping to ten years – a decision which caused huge upset to his victim's dad.
Mr Grayling's letter said: "I am disappointed that the original whole-life tariff was set aside and am sorry that this caused the family distress."
The father said: "It doesn't change what happened and in two years this man's going to be allowed to apply for parole "I was assured that life's what it would be."
He praised Shipley Conservative MP Mr Davies for his determination to get the family a result. "I think he's been fantastic," he said. "He told me when he started that he wouldn't give in and he hasn't."
Mr Davies said he was "absolutely delighted" that Mr Grayling had chosen to let the family see the report.
"I'm really pleased," he said. "I promised I wouldn't give in and I would keep going until we got the result that we should.
"I hope it will help him and his son.
"Obviously nothing can make up for what happened, but hopefully it will help him come to terms with how Ayre came to be in the position to do what he did."

Biotech Sell Side Tosses Billion-Dollar Valuation Bumps Like Mardi Gras Beads
BOSTON (TheStreet) -- What's $1 billion among friends? Not much if you're a biotech sell-side analyst under pressure to stay in the good graces of his firm's investment banking clients.
On Monday, Howard Liang of Leerink Swann raised his price target on Celldex Therapeutics (CLDX) from $29 to $45 per share, which implies a bump in the company's market value of just over $1 billion.
Why does Liang believe Celldex is worth $1 billion more today than on Friday? Because of CDX-1127, an experimental cancer immunotherapy which hasn't yet reported any clinical data in patients. The first human data from a phase I study are expected in early November. Naturally, Liang set his expectations very low:
As a combination partner for immune checkpoint inhibitors such as anti-PD-1 agents, we believe the efficacy bar [for CDX-1127] is not high based on our analysis of early clinical data on other IO agents, and we believe any demonstration of single-agent activity coupled with a clean safety profile could position CDX-1127 as one of the leading candidates for PD-1 combination.Celldex last sold stock in February, raising $90 million. Leerink co-managed the offering. One can only imagine Celldex is getting ready to raise money again, which helps explain Liang's enthusiasm. Not to be outdone, BMO Capital Markets analyst Jim Birchenough increased his price target on Isis Pharmaceuticals (ISIS) from $31 to $45 per share. Why is Isis suddenly worth $1.6 billion more on Monday, in Birchenough's eyes? Because Isis reported data on three patients from a mid-stage study of the triglyceride-lowering drug ISIS-APOC3-Rx. Birchenough called the Isis data "striking" but fails to mention ISIS-APOC3-Rx is well behind a competing drug from Novartis (NVS) already in phase III studies for the same orphan disease indication. The Novartis drug, known as LCQ908, is a once-daily pill while Isis' drug requires an injection. This should sound familiar. Isis' injectable triglyceride-lowering therapy Kynamro is losing badly to Aegerion Pharmaceuticals' (AEGR) more convenient, better tolerated and effective Juxtapid pill. Isis learned nothing from the Kynamro experience -- and neither has Birchenough, whose employer counts Isis as an investment banking client. I remember when companies actually had to do something to deserve a $1 billion valuation bump from the sell side. No longer. -- Reported by Adam Feuerstein in Boston. Follow @AdamFeuerstein

Scientists do not know much about the region's gray seal population — how large it is, for example, or where the seals spend most of their time.
For the first time, the seals are being tagged and tracked, according to the researchers, who came from the US and Canada.
The team used a scalpel to clean glue off the sensors before releasing the animal at Chatham Harbor.
"We don't get access to animals like this very often, so you have to keep calm to perform the task," said Jerry Moxley, a doctoral student at Duke University.
The researchers plan to tag nine seals and collect biological samples from up to 30 seals through Monday.

GROTON -- Kristin Cianci is wondering if she and fellow residents of the Deerhaven subdivision off Route 40 should rename their neighborhood Bearhaven.
Their backyards are becoming black bears' favorite playgrounds. The mighty creatures saunter across the lawns, stop to snack on berries and wander off into the thickets of trees, Cianci said.
Don't assume they are nocturnal. Early afternoon is Cianci's best bet for spotting one on her block.
The bears aren't just visiting the neighborhood, according to Marion Larson, chief of information and education for the state Division of Fisheries and Wildlife (MassWildlife). The bears live there.
There weren't many bears living in Massachusetts some decades ago when hunters were using dogs and baiting to catch them. When it became illegal to use such hunting techniques in Massachusetts in 1970, the state knew only 100 bears were left. The population has bounced back since then, and a state survey conducted in 2008 showed up to 4,000 bears were now living in Massachusetts.
As the trend continues, they are increasingly moving into eastern parts of the state, including Middlesex County, Central Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire in search of new homes.
That explains why so many people are seeing bears in Groton, Westford and some surrounding communities this fall, Larson said. In fact, the sudden increase in bear sightings has prompted Nashua River Watershed Association to hold a workshop on bears with MassWildlife biologist Trina Moruzzi as the lecturer, according to NRWA Development and Outreach Associate Pam Gilfillan. Scheduled for Nov. 21 from 7 to 9 p.m. at the NRWA office at 592 Main St. in Groton. Workshop participants will learn about black bears' habits and habitats as well as what to do when you meet a bear and how to coexist with the animal. MassWildlife staff also gave a talk in Westford last Thursday to share the knowledge with residents.
Bear sightings are more common in fall because they are actively looking for food to build up fat before going into hibernation, according to Larson. Across Groton, people have run into bears while walking a dog or pulling into their driveways over the past few weeks.
Cianci has, so far, seen a bear twice. The first one, spotted at about 1:30 p.m. nearly two weeks ago, casually walked toward the nearby woods, ignoring barking dogs and homeowners trying to hurry their pets into their houses, she said. She came upon a bear again last Monday at about 1:40 p.m. while inside her car. Hearing the noise of the car, the bear began to walk away. But as she stopped to take photos of the bear, it turned around and started to walk toward her, Cianci said.
"When I drove off, I looked and saw him sitting on his butt eating berries off a tree by the curb of the road. It was quite a sight to see," Cianci wrote in an email to The Sun.
Another Groton resident caught a bear peering into the house through a window while she stood inside the residence. Some people excitedly report such encounters while others are growing weary of coming across bears in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Don Poutry, of Pepperell, is one of those thrilled to find a bear in the backyard. His wife was looking out of the kitchen window just before dark on Nov. 2 when she noticed a black bear standing on two feet and grabbing onto a bird feeder hanging from a tree by the driveway. It was the couple's first time seeing a bear, Poutry said.
"I refilled the bird feeder, hoping to see it again, but so far just birds and squirrels," Poutry said in his email to The Sun.
Larson said the state is trying to discourage people from leaving food out for bears.
"Bears will associate people and houses with food. It's really not a good idea for them to be depending on that kind of food and for them to get that used to people," Larson said. Wild animals that are used to humans can pose more of a threat to people, and that increases the chance of them having to be destroyed, Larson said.
For more information about dealings with bears, visit http://www.mass.gov/eea/docs/dfg/dfw/wildlife/wildlife-living/living-with-bears.pdf.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A west Louisville youth football team takes the gridiron days after a near-tragic rescue on their practice field.
The West End Yellow Jackets won their game today at Waggener Field.
The team was practicing at Russell Lee Park on Thursday night when a two-year-old girl fell into a 15 foot hole.
That's when Yellow Jackets head coach Terrance Washington jumped into the hole to help.
Louisville Fire and Rescue pulled both safely out.
Coach Washington said he's a little sore, but glad to be back on the sidelines.
Coach Washington said the team has not yet secured a temporary practicing field, but says he hopes to return "home" to Russell Lee Park whenever the city reopens it.

The texture of this foundation is very nice. I have to wear it with matte primer, but the combo works great. I have this in sand, the color looks very yellow in bottle but wears more neutral.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
AMAZING!!! I converted from mac because my skin kept breaking out, and after only a few times of using this liquid foundation (golden tan) and the YB tawnee mineral powder my skin has cleared up so much!!! This foundation gives me a natural flawless glow!! It lasts all day and feels so light on my skin. I wish it wasn't so expensive although I would rather pay more for a product that is good for my skin.definitely not going back to any other make up brand

Just had my makeup done in this product today, and I have to say that my skin feels amazing. I usually hate liquid foundation because of the way that it looks after eight hours. This stuff I can say that after a crazy busy day, my skin still looks flawless. I don't have bad skin, so I am not searching for full coverage. It covers just enough, while still letting my freckles show through. I've got it on order, can't wait to receive it!
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This product actually IS really, reaally good. I told the woman in the store that I wanted a foundation for oily skin and full coverage, she gave me this one and I trusted her. Later, I found out that this foundation is for those with dry skin, that explained ALOT. I was getting suspicious when I always got shiny throughout the day and my make-up melted off. And the light coverage... Soooo, it does not work for me, but I guarantee that those with dry skin will LOVElovelove this product, I know that I did for a while!! It didn't break me out either. Overall, it's really good.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
First of all I must admit that I don't usually use foundation; it's hard for me to find a match and I have pretty dry and sensitive skin, plus I hate the feeling of having a mask over my face. Youngblood's liquid foundation is fantastic though! It doesn't irritate my skin and even though I have pretty pale skin the shade "Pebble" suits me well, even though in some fluorescent light it can look a bit yellow, however, in natural light it looks perfect!
It IS sheer, in that if there are pimples they will probably need concealer, but it still gives pretty good coverage. It *just* shows my freckles, which is great because I love them.
It lost some points on price because it is quite expensive to buy in Australia, but buying it online from the US or overseas can overcome that.
Not sure if HG but definitely keeping it around.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is a foundation that provides a very light coverage. It blends in perfectly with my own skin and it feels like i'm not wearing any foundation (I have this in Pebble). Personally I would like a little more coverage because I have some redness around my nose and cheeks and it doesn't cover this at all - right now my HG foundation is the Lancôme Miracle Teint 010, and it's perfect for me. I just wanted to try out the Youngblood foundation because of the ingredients, and it will be perfect for those who have beautiful skin already and just want a foundation to even out skin tone a bit - but I will have to stick with Lancôme.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
im not a user, because i couldn't buy a shade that was for my skin tone. i looked up youngblood for stockists in sydney because my friend who used to work for a salon which had youngblood have used it for years and have recommended it to me. I won't doubt the benefits and power for light-medium coverage because i see her wear it all the time. so i had visited a few salons that was on stockist list, even though it 9 shades... the lady had tried to colour match me, and I was between colours. the lighter shades were too light, dark was too pink/yellow/dark. all the shades YB had to offer were extreme opposites.. i was surprised out of the 9shades that i was none of them? which made me really upset, as i really wanted to experience the benefits my friend had. Really wished YB catered for the in between shades, i bought another brand instead (inika), finally found my perfect match.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
i came across this product when i had a spider bite. my dermatologist recommended it to me (the spider bite was disgusting.... absolutely disgusting) but while it was healing, i needed something to cover my face and it was SO SO SO dry so this was recommended to me.
my skin healed and was covered at the same time... if i had pictures i would post them but i would NEVER EVER try another liquid foundation ever again. the cover is more sheer/medium but i love it just for daily use when i do not need heavy coverage (who really needs heavy coverage on a daily basis anyway?) great for even the most sensitive skin.....
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Great colors especially for women of color. It is so hard for me to find a foundation with yellow in it. This foundation sets nicely on skin. Literally nothing from sephora or the department stores match me. I am nc42 in mac, nars -syracuse, chantecaille future skin - wheat and i got this color in tahitian sun (for summer) and suntan for winter.
4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I love this foundation!! I've searched high and low for a good foundation that doesn't have scary ingredients and had given up. I heard about Youngblood and almost didn't give them a try because, really, I've tried so many- was this one really going to be any different? And it's really hard to find in stores to try out shades! But, I tracked it down and I am SO glad I did. My search for a HG foundation is over!
First, awesome ingredients. Second, fantastic coverage and the Pebble shade matches my skin tone *perfectly*. I've never found a foundation that matches me this well. It makes a huge difference and allows me to put foundation just where I need it and I don't have to put it all over my face. Also it feels very light on my skin, like my skin can 'breathe' which is impressive given the high level of coverage it gives. The finish is between matte and dewey, which I love. It doesn't dry out my (dry/normal) skin and it doesn't leave it looking oily. It wears great throughout the day. In the summer I like to set it with the YB rice setting powder. In the winter my skin is too dry for powder and the foundations stays fine through the day with out any setting powder. Very faint fragrance, which is good if you don't like heavy fragrances. I use a foundation brush to apply it, but just fingers works well too. Color stays true and doesn't oxidize during the day. It doesn't get cakey, the flawless finish look lasts amazingly well throughout the day. It is expensive but I only need a little bit to do my whole face so even though I use it almost every day it's still lasted me quite a while.
I cant say enough good things about this foundation! I hope they never change the formula! I've since become a bit of a YB addict and am trying out their other products. Not good for my wallet... but damn their stuff really works for me!

I picked this lovely beer up at the Solana Beach Pizza Port while on a visit with TheLongBeachBum in Sunny California. (Thank You for taking me there!!) A very nice trip, and I was glad I could actually get some bottles to bring back home! (thanks to francisweizen for financing the 2 PP bottles!)
So, this Mother was a really nice one, very strong and warm and tasty. It was a dark reddish-brown colour, with a tan, very creamy head on top. It smelled really nice as well- I'd have to say almost like burnt sugar? Also an alcoholic rum raisin aroma drifts up as well. Tasted very fruity and sweet but not too sweet- there was just the perfect amount of tart, dryness to balance that out. Even though it wasn't oak-aged, I was picking up the slightest oak flavour, along with an explosion of sorts of plums, raisins, dried apricots, really like a mix of brandy-soaked mixed dried fruits. I loved it! Mouthfeel was beautiful, oh so creamy, it slowly glided down my throat like liquid silk. Well, as slowly as I could handle, as I just couldn't get enough of it! I got a very dry, grapey finish, which also helped make this beer not grossly sweet. Drinkability was beautiful, it felt warm and alcoholic but didn't taste it really, so I didn't feel like I was drinking a 10% quad. Very very very good beer overall, just too bad I can't get it again!

750 mL bottle poured into a snifter. This is the 2005 bottle.
Appearance - Murky deep brown. Lightly reddish. Not much of a head. Just a khaki collar
Smell - Lots of oxidation. Dark fruits. Brown sugar. Raisins.
Taste - Lots of cardboard. Brown sugar after that. Some dark fruits. A kind of cardboard bitterness in the back end.
Mouthfeel - Heavy body. Still well carbonated. Oxidized, though.
Overall - Too oxidized at this point, but it definitely has its merits even now.

First off, thanks to LuckySevens82 for allowing me the opportunity to sample this one. Pours from the elegantly labeled, with a big scripted "M", 750ml bottle a deep dark brown, bordering on black with a lovely creamy two finger khaki head sitting nicely on top. Deep garnet hues come out when held up to the light with great head retention. Aromas of dark roasted malt, candi sugar, cocoa, caramel and dark fruits (raisins, plums) along with a spicy, pepper yeast tone. Fresh and vibrant...simply a treat for the nose with a hint of alcohol.
First sip brings a nice dark malty roastiness with hints of cocoa covered cherries, apples, dark fruit and rich creamy caramel. Spicy Belgian yeast flavors with notes of cinammon and clove. Sweet candi sugar molasses with raisins and a hint of toffee. An intricate blending of flavors that rolls over the palate leaving me fiending for another sip of this sweet nectar. A bit of warming alcohol and herbal hops finishes this one up on the way down...simply an awesome Quadrupel brewed right here in the USA. Lovely.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied and creamy with a healthy carbonation. Smooth as silk...it begs to be drank and I have no problem giving in. An incredibly drinkable Quad...simply breathtaking. I sure wish I had another bottle. A testament to craft brewing and a huge accomplishment for Tomme and everyone at Pizza Port. This could easily go up against its Belgian counterparts. Wow...highly recommended.

This beer is simply amazing. It pours a dark brown with red highlights. The thick head was tan. It faded very slowly leaving more laces than I have ever seen. It smelled spicy with hints of cinnamon. It also smelled fruity with hints of plumbs and raisins. There was also a malty aroma to it. The flavor was very complex. It tasted malty with a good hop balance. It had a caramel taste and also a spicy cinnamon and nutmeg flavor. The alcohol was also quite apparant in the flavor. This beer is a full bodied beer with perfect carbonation. It goes down smooth leaving a floral, spicy aftertaste. This beer might not be the best session beer due to the high alcohol content after a few pints, you wot be able to operate heavy machinery. But a pint or two is definately a good thing. If you hare in Solana Beach, or if you ever have access to a bottle of this stuff, you need to try it. It is definately worth it.

Bottle courtesy of PMR. Thanks Patrick.
Pours a dark mahogany and caramel brown and maroon. Big, broad fluffed up tan head that maintains some stickiness throughout.
Aroma of some nuts, chocolate, dark fruity fig and date tones and just a hint of yeasty banana or mango.
Flavors of chocolate malt and dark fruits really shine with a hint of cassis and some deep dark earthy tones, almost peaty in nature.
Spiciness creeps up as the beer warms and adds just another very interesting dimension.
Mouthfeel is very full-bodied yet highly drinkable and easy going. Really has a depth and silkiness to it. Alcohol is just enough to make your senses aware of it. Spiciness just cuts the sweetness to make it an incredible drinking experience.
Drinkability is about as good as it gets. If this is the base for Cuvee de Tomme then I better fly my ass to SoCal and find some of that there stuff. Truly awesome.

Picked this 750ml bottle up at the Solana Beach Pizza Port, all for $10. Figured what better glassware to use than my St. Bernardus chalice. Sitting at my computer for this one vice jotting notes.
MOAB has a brown tone shot through with streaks of ruby and maroon. A compact light beige head briefly perches on top before fading down to a scant cap and thin ring. No lace developed.
I park my nose over the rim and am rewarded the aromas of unripened bananas, dates, figs, raisins. Very sweet, candy sugary aroma, too. Bit of vanilla. Lots of caramel. Then comes the resounding slap upside the head from the potent alcohol. As it warms, there is an earthy, almost peaty aroma and the faint smell of roasted wheat.
I take a pull, then a deeper one. Tons of brandied, candied raisins and plums right off the bat. Quite sweet, loaded with caramel. Slight chocolate flavor. Earthy, peat moss, something approaching the peat flavor of a scotch ale or wee heavy. Way back on the tongue the flavors of bready malt and wheat come out. There's the alcohol taste, warming the throat and chest, faintly scotch-like again. The feel was full, round and velvety.
Almost done with the bottle now and starting to feel the effects of the 10% ABV. By all means, let this one warm up. The smells and especially the flavors simply blossom into a wonderfully complex and dangerously drinkable beer. You won't be disappointed in the least. I certainly wasn't. Well worth seeking out and worth parting with a sawbuck.

750ml bottle obtained via trade with LuckySevens82. Thanks for the opportunity...
Poured into a Rapscallion glass, formed 1 1/2" of dense light brown head over the deep burgundy brew. Head lasts well due to continuous bubbling, with the heaviest foam lacing I have ever seen, as in measurable thickness! Aroma is fruity spiced Belgian malts, with alcohol notes. Taste is similar to the nose, but with dark fruits coming more to the forefront, and much more alcohol character present. Age would probably smooth this out a bit. Mouthfeel and drinkability are both excellent, esp for the style. Wish I had more of this one.

Pours a very dark brown, virtually opaque, with a thin, even dark tan head. Good lace down the glass.
Aroma is dark and malty with significant fruity notes -- slightly tart cherry and raisin stand out. Quite a strong yeast character, as well, though this will likely mellow with age.
The flavor is marked by a nice Belgian dark malt character. Candi sugar is evident at the front and back end, and combines with a bit of alcohol at the finish to leave a pleasant tingle on the tongue.
More dark fruity characters emerge mid-palate plum and slightly tart fruits that last to the finish. Pretty sweet, overall, with not quite enough roasty character to balance.
The plentiful and even carbonation helps cut the sweetness a bit, though, and prevents the beer from becoming cloying. Altogether, a reasonably drinkable beer, though you can definitely feel and taste the alcohol! Probably one to cellar for a while.

unimpressively labeled 750ml bottle, which proclaims it as the best thing ever on earth, and the base beer for the fabled cuvee de tomme, which is resting where this one once did in my fridge.
beautiful rich dark brown with red highlights, patchy small islands of belgian foam. lots of nicely formed bubble clusters on the surface of the liquid. aroma is thick of wood, raisins, and complex malt. some scent eminating from the glass ventures into the more roasty realm of coffee, typical for american belgians and their malt profile. taste is that of a very rich quadrupel, almost maddening in its flavor domination. rich overripe plums add an interesting dark chocolate bitterness. wheaty tangy character also shocks and finishes a tad awkwardly with a bacterial sourness... this slowly dissipates as i drink more.
as i look at the beer again, i notice that the foam has developed into small, rice grain sized clusters. like a cell under a microscope! fascinating.
alcohol kick is nice, creamy finish with foam on my lip. nice virgin wood aftertaste reminding me of the finer, more pristine belgian quads. different, and somewhat glad this is not a straight-up copy. worth the hunt. pizza port rox.

Deep brown color. Minimal head and lacing. Deep and mysterious.
Aroma of spices, yeast, and cherries. Very sweet and enticing. Smells like a bakery at 5 a.m.
Very balanced flavor. Slightly sour, slightyl sweet. And a little tart too. And a slight hop aftertaste as well. A wonderful balancing act of a compendium of rich and diverse flavors.
Caramel and hops proliferate in the aftertaste, with a dose of brown sugar.
Not the mother of all beers for me, but that's because I'm the brother of another mother. One love baby.

Pulled this one from one of my old notebooks from back in my San Diego days.
Poured a rich, medium brown color with a thick off white head. Aromas of raisins, cherries, dark brown sugar and plums. On the palate, this one is fairly full-bodied, thick and chewy, with dark malt, plums, candi sugar and booze. Very good.

Presentation: A recent trip from Long Beach south down the West Coast to the San Diego area to show out-of-town BA Ericaweizen a few of the SoCal beery Sites, involved a trip to the Solana Beach Pizza Port with my good mate EyeChartBrew. Surprisingly they had a few bottles of the MOAB for $10 as well as the Black Label Cuvee de Tomme for $20. Along with Erica I decided to pick up one of each and give them a whirl.
The 750ml green glass flask bottle for the MOAB has a dimpled base, a simple crown cap, and if I may be so bold to say, a very cheap appearance. The label is a see through stick on affair, poorly adhered and rather tacky looking, ironic really, especially as this is the base beer for the Cuvee de Tomme and the biggest beer that Pizza Port brews.
Appearance: Poured into my Duvel Glass it has a stereotypical Quadruppel appearance. Lit from above it has a lovely dark brown look, but when lit from behind it exhibits a lovely ruby hue, dark red flashes of light reveal a rather lucid body. The head is a tightly packed foamy light brown tan colored affair, but this is its Sunday best, and it soon throws off this restrictive suit, as it does it breaks up to reveal a more relaxed state of affairs, a large thick ringed halo neck, stabilizes whilst the central portion easily breaks to a thin smattered film covering. Conditioning is extremely fine in nature and resilient; listen hard after a quick swirl will induce an audible head collapse.
Nose: When it is allowed to warm, this offering revels in its naked glory. Dark chocolate, plums, rum, raisins and an earthy sour tinge. Candy sugar reigns as it warms to room temperature and melds with the roasted wheat nicely.
Taste: Dry tastes at first; a thick carpet of malts, lightly roasted nuts, earthy soil laden tobacco leaves. The dryness soon moistens with the introduction of luscious plums, sweet candy sugars, peeled Granny Smith apples, sliced almonds and a rich Dundee Cake finish. As I work my way through the bottle I get a roasted black cherry backbone in the creamy finish. Coats the mouth with an incorrigible sheen that has a lovely lingering dimension.
Mouthfeel: The 10% alcohol is there, mildy intrusive on the palate and warming in the swallow. Rich well molded beginnings and a mature complex finish.
Drinkability: Nicely put together and a very tasty Quad. I managed the whole 750ml with no effort whatsoever. I know it is 10% but it sure goes down well despite that fact. Last of the night and Ill sleep well for sure!
Overall: A nice chance to get to try the naked Cuvee de Tomme. A supreme brew indeed, and definitely worth the coin!

Aroma is deep and rich with chocolate notes and fruit, like black cherries and plums. There are some wine-like tannic undertones. I also get a very low level alcoholic nose.
Dark black colored, but held up to the light it's more of a deep ruby. HAs a big initial head that fades to a thin persistant layer of foam.
There's lots of malty sweetness that's tempered by some Belgian oude-bruin like sourness. It puts me in the mind of Rodenbach with the lactic effect on the tongue. There's lost of cherry and other fruit flavors in with the malt too. Hop bitterness is perceptible but very subdued. Adding to the complexity is some earthy character and maybe even some woody flavors.
Has a full body but it doesn't seem huge. Carbonation level is about right. It seems creamy and definitely hides it's strength well.
Overall this a fantastic effort. It stands up very well on its own. It's also the base beer for Cuvee de Tomme that undergoes barrel aging with fruit. It was my brithday so I dug out a special bottle. This was 2005 vintage.

I was served a bottles of TMOAB at O'Brien's tonight.
Very nice champagne bottle. pours a very dark brown with some red highlights. Thin foamy tan head that settles back into the brew. Nice lacing.
Very sour fruity smells of blackberry, cherry, and plum. Malt hints of chocolate and caramel. Yeasty too.
Very smooth roasted chocolate and toffee initially, followed by a very tart fruity finish. I am not sure of the fruits I taste blackberry, and plum.
Very nice beer, a little sweet but still very nice and smooth, Not sure about the ABV but I'm sure that this will bite me in the ass later.

750ml bottle shared by jeff at the stuffed sandwich
Poured a very dark chocolatey brown with maroon highlights that had a thin head and left a little lacing sticking to the glass. The aroma was really sweet smelling and malty with dark fruit yeasty tasty notes. It did however have lactic character and fruit notes like cherries and faint brown sugar. The flavor was really tasty consisting of the bready malts, swetness from the yeast and fruits like prunes maybe some raisins but had slight brown sugar toffee accents with a touch of cherries. It also seemed to have a little tartness and and some underlying hoppiness on the backend. The brew was full in body with a fair amount of carbonation which had a sweet, bready, fruity, malty, slight boozy, and silky hoppy finish. It drank pretty good and seemed to have kept up well with age. Definitely tasty and a beer to must try. I hear they occasionally have it on tap at the source.

Pours an opaque, hazy dark amber color that is topped by a frothy, creamy tan to light brown colored head. The aroma is incredibly rich and malty, it jumps out at me as I am pouring this beer. There are notes of concentrated toffee, sweet chocolate, fruity notes of concentrated fig, slightly burnt raisin, brown sugar, and hints of bourbon and oak. The beer has quite a complex aroma, there is a lot going on and it is hard to pick out everything that is floating past my nose.
The beer is quite rich on the palate, yet still not all that sweet for its richness. The finish has a light roast character to it combined with a solid dark chocolate note, both of which linger for quite some time. This beer is quite malty in the taste as well, notes of toasted malt, rich toffee, lots of caramel malt, and definite notes of brown sugar. This beer is so rich and malty, yet is not sweet at all, really quite a paradox in some ways, yet in the end not at all. The combination of rich malt character and hints of roast notes give this beer a slight acidity, and even a bit of saltiness (perhaps in combination a bit of that elusive umami taste). Savory is perhaps the best way to describe this beer, it is rich, palate clinging and full of flavorful complexity; more akin to a rich stew than to a rich desert.

750 ml bottle with a black label and yellow writing shared by cquiroga, thanks for giving me a chance to try one of Tomme's early brews, think this bottle was from 2005, consumed 3/28/09, reviewed from notes, poured into my Rader snifter
A-Color is mahogany, some darker tones, 3/4 inch creamy off white head that lasts a while, good retention, and lacing
S-Milk chocolate, wheat, sugar, vanilla, mild citrus, cake batter, soft booze, and figs
T-Starts off with dark malts, dark fruit and candied sugar in the middle, finish is slightly chewy with wheat and other malts, lingering vanilla and chocolate candy in the aftertaste, gets more rich as it warms
M-Sweet, slightly roasty, yeasty, and chewy mouthfeel, medium bodied, moderate carbonation, nice sweet lingering flavor
D-Could probably drink this bottle regardless of its strength, alcohol is hidden well, only really noticable slightly in the smell, smooth and easy to drink for its style
This was a great quad and seems to have aged very well, it was great getting to try the base beer for Cuvee de Tomme, this is truly a great beer and was the strongest that was brewed at Pizza Port prior to Angel's Share in 2006, would love to have again and heard it is on tap in the brewpub still from time to time, hope to come across it soon, recommended

Considering that three different bartenders recommend I try this brew at Pizza Port Carlsbad, I'm sensing they don't have it very often.
Dark brown with a light tan head. Smells like raisins/figs and sweet ... something.
The taste is shockingly sweet. Raisins/figs/plums, dark brandy drenched fruits, Belgian candi, and an almost sugary sweetness. Very good tasting beer, but be prepared for a dark fruit/sugar bomb.
Mouthfeel was thick and viscuous.

Not much light gets through this one. It's got an auburn/crimson tone. Light and airy beige head sits on top. Nice retention. And big gobs of lace are left everywhere while I drink. Sweet, candyish aroma with a little bit of must in the background. Bubblegum esters are prominent. And some nice chocolate covered cherry additions to the nose as well. Damn good aroma. Everything about the flavor of this beer is so balanced. Alcohol is held in check, barely evident. The heat that is present blends in nicely in a "lightly spiked punch" sort of way. The "candied" flavors are subtle, yet beautiful, and bountiful. Bready yeastiness accents nicely. Esters of fruits(cherries, plums and apples) and bubblegum abound. And light chocolate and roast tones add yet another dimension. Great mouthfeel. The carbonation is fine and light. Body is about light-medium.
It's been 1133 days since I first and last tasted this heavenly creation... and it's every bit as good as I remember. Just hope it's not as many days in between my next encounter with this nectar.
Thanks go out to my Candy Man. The LBBum.

750ml bottle brought back from the Solana Beach location by Ericaweizen. Nice! Dark, ruddy chestnut with a nice 1/2" head of white/tannish foam with big bubbled carbonation and slight Belgian lacing. This kinda looks like a well poured Westvleteren 12. Aromas are all dark fruits, candy sugar, Belgian malts, a hint of some sort of funky sourness, some sweet sherry, and sweet fruits too (pineapple, apple). The taste is great. Big Belgian malts, candy sugar, a slight tinge of roastiness, some molasses like sugars, some pineapple, and more! Mouthfeel is creamy and palate coating, but not over the top with thickness. Drinkability is very good for this high abv monster. Not a mind-blower, but an insanely good brew!

750ml bottle direct from MJ's Rare Beer club. Poured into a St. Bernardus Snifter.
Pours a very deep brown with slight orange and ruby hints. A tan head caps this one off (sort of spongey looking...if that's a word). Retention is good, as are lacing and collar.
Smell is extremely complex. Fruitiness is up front with hints of cherries, figs, currants, and rasins. A slight spiciness follows (as the beer warms these aromas, of course, intensify) with whiffs of cinnamon and nutmeg. Caramel and sweet malts are present as well. There is also a very nice, sligh, spicy hop aroma. Alcohol is present in the aroma but entirely in the background of this one, which is pretty impressive for a 10% abv beer.
Taste is almost as complex as the aroma. Muted cherries, figs, dates, rasins are the undercurrent. Cinnamon and nutmeg are nicely complimented by the spicy hops. Alcohol is much more present in the taste with a very nice warming sensation as this one slides down the throat.
Mouthfeel is very nice, the carbonation is near perfect for the style and it is a very enjoyable beer to drink.
Drinkability suffers only because of the alcohol content and package size.
Overall, this is one of the closest "belgian style" beers that actually meets or surpasses the qualities of actual Belgian Quads. It is certainly the 2nd best of the style I've ever had (not as good as St. Bernardus...but I liked it better than Westy 12 <Gasp!>). An amazing accomplishment from Tomme Arthur and the folks at Pizza Port.

750ml. Poured into large red wine glasses.
My beer buddy and I are both hopheads and haven't really delved into Belgians, but when we tasted this at PizzaPort, we couldn't leave without buying a bottle each.
Pours a deep orange brown with a rich layer of foam that settles into a nice thin pillow. Mild haziness increases as we get to the last pour, but the sediment doesn't mar the taste. The nose is incredible. Strongly of caramel and raisin, there is also dark fruit and the sting of significant alcohol. The aroma is just so strong it's amazing. Usually Belgians bewilder me when it comes to taste. Too sweet or sugary, too much banana, etc. This nectar has been the first to hit me as being perfect -- candi sugar is present but not overwhelming. Chewy but not cloying. Raisins are delightful. Hint of roasted flavor, but not like in a porter. Not really chocolatey either. They say they use roasted wheat, and I just don't know how to describe it except to say that I kept sipping and sipping... It's soooo smooth, and the finish is contained -- not syrupy, so you can keep going.
Overall: Best belgian-style I (as a hophead) have had

Deepest, darkest, stygian, fully opaque, with a considrable, cocoa-tannish head. Frightening? No, invitening...
Aroma is deep, rich, sweet, molasses, nuts, dark fruit, ...a touch woody, as well, ...delightful spices, ...sublime...
Full attack on the mouth, a sweet, caramel-y, nearly treacly, but utterly sumptuous...cheeries speak up, prunes take a turn, a taste of carob. A wondrous ride in the mouth, a tour through sensational tastes.
Fullest of bodies, long, fruity, thick, rich finish.
Dangittidang this is goodness!
Yum, yummity, yum, yum!
Oh, delish!

Released Date: August 18, 2013
Puchase Information: He can be purchased as a single figure or as part of the Villians triple pack.
Wal-Mart will be selling Monsters University Blu-Ray Combo packs with Randall Infinity Figures included for $29.96. These are available for preorder on their website, to be released on October 29, 2013.
Voiced by: Steve Buscemi (Films)
First Appearance: Monsters, Inc (2001)
Latest Appearance: Monsters University (2013)
Aside from the standard dash/charge like Mike and Sully have, Randy has the unique ability to cloak himself when in his "sneak" mode. This makes him the best character to use when on sneak missions to get the drop on enemies. Of course if you get too close to them or within point blank range of their line of sight, they will still detect you.
Randall "Randy" Boggs started out as a good friend to Mike Wazowski at Monsters University, but they eventually drifted apart when Mike pledged Oozma Kappa and Randy joined Roar Omega Roar. He was driven crazy by his jealousy of Mike and Sulley's friendship, and made it his goal to break the All-Time Scare Record at Monsters, Incorporated before them. He conspired with his boss, Henry J. Waternoose III, to kidnap human children and extract all of their scream energy to end the monster world's energy crisis, but Mike and Sulley ended up foiling their plan.

When I was a wee lad, I had two abiding fears: death and mad dogs, i.e., rabid canines.
A recurring dream found me being chased by a dog, fangs bared, saliva drooling from its mouth. The animal kept gaining on me as I sped barefoot down the dusty road leading to our farmhouse.
I always awakened, wet with sweat, heart pounding; in the dream I reached the front door, only to find it locked. I would lie there, exhausted but grateful that I had been spared the painful 21 injections in the belly then administered to dog-bite victims.
As for the Grim Reaper, my nightly prayer was that I, like Elijah, would be swept up to heaven in a whirlwind, bypassing death itself.
These fears came to mind a week ago as Sunday school teacher Sally Bates launched a series of lessons on "Following Jesus in a culture of fear."
Sally began by passing out copies of 25 biblical passages specifically urging Christians to "fear not." She then asked each of us to write down the things we most fear and share them with the class.
The exercise produced a couple of light moments.
"I fear I won't get the basement cleared of clutter before I die, and my daughter will end up having to do it," one member confessed.
"I'm afraid Carolina won't be as good in basketball next year," said another, whereupon a Duke fan retorted, "I should certainly hope not!"
"I'm afraid I will fall in the shower, become an invalid and end up as a dried old prune," one said.
"I fear for my mother," volunteered another. "She's ready to go at 94, but she's afraid she may live another 10 years!"
Only a few days after the state legislature killed a bill requiring drivers over 85 to take road tests when renewing their license, a class member said, "I'm afraid of being creamed on I-40 by someone doing 80 miles an hour." I doubt she had an over-85 driver in mind.
Fear of the failing economy was a common confession, along with nuclear war, North Korea and Afghanistan, terrorists, weather, youth gangs, guns and "fear of change."
Several expressed a fear of outliving their financial resources. Many said they fear for the future of children and grandchildren.
I was surprised, but didn't take offense, that a few listed "fear of the media," one stating specifically, "I'm afraid of CNN news."
In retrospect, that fear is less surprising. The media is the bearer of bad news, the transmitter of fear by merely reporting fearful events around the world. A natural reaction among many is to want to shoot the messenger, even though when bad things happen we usually want to know the "who, what, when, where and why" of it and know it now!
At the end of the class, Gene Rogers, a Korean War vet asked, "A.C., have you thought about how young people face life, and even war, without these fears that confront must of us older folks?
"That may be because when you're 18 years old and the Good Book has promised you three score and 10 years, you're not afraid of much, if anything," I replied.
Since Sunday I've searched without much success for a ranking of fears to compare with those of my Sunday school peers.
My wife, however, unearthed a 1983 R.H. Bruskin Associates survey of 2,543 adults who were asked to name their foremost fears. Fear of speaking in public ranked first. Fear of death was seventh.
A similar survey listing public speaking first and death second prompted comedian Jerry Seinfeld to quip: "Number one fear is public speaking. Number two is death? Death is number two! Does that sound right? This means to the average person, if you go to a funeral, you're better off in the casket than doing the eulogy."
Perhaps the most familiar quotation on fear, after the biblical "Fear not, for I bring you good tidings of great joy," is President Franklin D. Roosevelt's 1933 comment at the height of the Great Depression, "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." The same might be said in this, the worst recession since.
When I asked my 6-year-old grandson what he's most afraid of, he promptly answered, "Sand spurs!," having just returned from an afternoon at the beach.
"Sand spurs," I think, translates into "pain." I wish little Wade, and each of you, a life journey as free of sand spurs as humanly possible."
