People of the Deerby Farley Mowat
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
In 1886, the Ihalmiut people of northern Canada numbered seven thousand; by 1946, when Farley Mowat began his two-year stay in the Arctic, the population had fallen to just forty. With them, he observed for the first time the phenomenon that would inspire him for the rest of his life: the millennia-old migration of the Arctic's caribou herds. He also endured bleak, interminable winters, suffered agonizing shortages of food, and witnessed the continual, devastating intrusions of outsiders bent on exploitation. Here, in this classic and first book to demonstrate the mammoth literary talent that would produce some of the most memorable books of the next half-century, best-selling author Farley Mowat chronicles his harrowing experiences. People of the Deer is the lyrical ethnography of a beautiful and endangered society. It is a mournful reproach to those who would manipulate and destroy indigenous cultures throughout the world. Most of all, it is a tribute to the last People of the Deer, the diminished Ihalmiuts, whose calamitous encounter with our civilization resulted in their unnecessary demise.

This was the second tent that I received from Kelty.
Ease of Setup: Main Part - Super Easy / Rainfly - Easy
Price Paid: $399
This was the second tent that I received from Kelty. I had purchased the Kelty Villa 4 this year (2010) and when I set it up I came to find out that is was defective.
I called the warranty department at Kelty and they were really great. They had me setup the Villa Tent one additional time and then had me send a photo of the 3 inched of space under the floor.
Being that the Villa 4 tent was from 2007 and discontinued they offered the Palisade as replacement. I was sold on the vestibule just from the website.
We are planning a trip next week to Sedona and as a test run we set the tent up in our living room. The main part of the tent went up supper easy - the circular pole was an interesting puzzle to figure out and using my 6 year old daughter as a brace we managed to get the tent up. I can honestly say that I could set up the entire tent by myself. As for the circular pole for the roof, I think a tree, car or anything stationary will work just fine if you are setting it up by yourself.
There are a few issues that I have with the tent….
1. Staking the Tent is a Must - The tent definitely needs to be staked to the ground. We go beach camping Palisade offers great ventilation in 80 degree Arizona evenings - finding a way to stake it in the sand will challenging.
2. Lack of Privacy. The Palisade is basically a bug shield without the rain fly. If you like a little privacy in a big campground you will need to attach the fly. Then you give up the awesome open roof and the star gazing that goes along with it. If you tend to do back country camping then the openness will not matter to much.
3. Pets Can Potentially Damage the Tent - We have a puppy we will be taking on our next camping trip and she already has come into the tent and made herself at home. The thing that concerns me is that if she wants out she can tend to scratch at the door. If she does with this tent the mesh will not last.
The Really positive things about the tent….
1. A BIG stuff sack - When we opened the box we found ample room in the duffle bag to account for non-professional packing.
2. A Star Gazing Roof to die for - My daughter and I laid down in the tent and looked up at the ceiling in our living room and the first thing she said was wow we can sure see a lot of shooting stars in this tent!!!!
3. Super Easy to Setup and Take Down - I could do it myself!
4. Large with Vertical Walls - We like to sleep with big comfy cots and both fit in just nicely. If you wanted a third cot it could get a little tight. Four cots would definably not fit.
5. Vestibule and Rainfly is really cool! - Makes an extra room for you! (For it to work it needs to be staked to the ground!)
6. Great Customer Service - Kelty provides awesome customer support directly out of their Colorado office…
We will report back once we have a chance to test it in the field.

Backpacker Magazine – February 2001
If you're a fan of waterfalls, then Arkansas's Richland Creek Wilderness is your dream trip.
"One of the most scenic areas in this country. And I do mean the United States." That kind of praise usually is heaped upon famous national parks and skyscraping mountain ranges. But this glowing description, from trail guru Tim Ernst, honors Arkansas's little-known Richland Creek Wilderness, an 11,800-acre parcel of creek-creased Ozark Plateau, turquoise pools, terraced bluffs, and waterfalls nestled within the Ozark National Forest.
Richland Creek's lack of notoriety has kept it off the radar screens of most hikers. The swath of spellbinding wilderness is as wild as it ever was, and it has no maintained trails or signs. Although it's only 3.5 miles from the wilderness's boundary to Richland Falls and Twin Falls, the tough going and route finding make it feel twice that.
The creekside path I'm on writhes, drops, climbs, and sometimes disappears while it serves up tantalizing glimpses of inviting water and soaring bluffs. This unofficial path, known as the Twin Falls Trail, is most easily followed in winter, when thick brush and foliage don't obscure it. Winter is also the best time to see the many waterfalls in full flow (though you may have to cross icy streams along the path).
The turquoise-green Richland Creek tumbles through boulder chutes and over minifalls flanked by 60-foot limestone cliffs. As I follow it, I have to shuffle across craggy rock outcrops and crawl under fallen trees.
At the confluence of Richland Creek and Long Devils Fork, I splash across the shallow water and clamber uphill a half mile to the terraced Twin Falls, which is formed by the junction of Long Devils and Big Devils Forks. The two 20-foot falls are opposites: The left branch gushes water like a hydrant, while the right floats down in a delicate, lacy sheet.
Richland Falls, on the other hand, roars down in a 100-foot-wide curtain of cascading water. The unofficial Twin Falls Trail, such as it is, ends there, but I continue on into one of the most captivating wilderness areas in this country. And I do mean the United States.

Keyan sez, "FOGcon is a new literary-themed SF/F con in the tradition of Wiscon and Readercon, but based in San Francisco Bay Area. It was held for the first time in 2011. This year (2012) it'll be from March 30-April 1, 2012, at the Walnut Creek Marriott. The theme is 'The Body', with two wonderful Honored Guests, writer Nalo Hopkinson and writer and artist Shelley Jackson. It's a great con with a warm and friendly ambiance, a manageable size, and intelligent programming. And it's less than an hour from down-town San Francisco."
FOGCon: new literary sf convention in San Francisco
3 Responses to "FOGCon: new literary sf convention in San Francisco"
Walnut Creek? Really?
On purpose?
Oh, come now, guys. WC Marriott plenty close to BART (10 minute brisk walk) and it's got to be pretty cost-effective space. Your hipster cred will not ablate like John Glenn's retropack just because you come to the windward side of the Berkeley hills.
(And it's only about 1 mile from my office, so I'm all for it)

Who are the key players in Ukraine's crisis?
President Viktor Yanukovich has fled Kiev and ministers of the old regime were dismissed.
Here are some of the key players of the crisis in Ukraine.
Oleksander Turchinov
Ukraine's new parliamentary speaker was granted presidential powers after the ouster of President Viktor Yanukovich.The acting president is an ally of former prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko.
Arseny Yatsenyuk
The pro-EU former minister represented the protesters during negotiations with Yanukovich.
The parliamentary leader of the opposition run unsuccessfully for president in 2010.
Vitali Klitschko
The former world heavyweight boxing champion is the leader of the pro-European Ukrainian Democratic Alliance for Reforms.
He said he plans to ran for president in 2015.
Yulia Tymoshenko
She led Ukraine during the 2004 "Orange Revolution." After a divisive term as prime minister she narrowly lost to him in an election in 2010.
Tymoshenko was released on Saturday after spending the last two and half years locked up in a hospital under prison guard.
She said she does not want to be considered for the post of prime minister.
Viktor Yanukovich
The ousted president is officially wanted by police after being declared "unable to carry out his constitutional obligations" by the Ukrainian parliament. His whereabouts are unknown.

Will be getting Castlevania III since I'm paying again (even if it is only £0.99p) for a game that I already own on Wii.
DLC for Mario Kart 8 isn't equal to a new F-Zero or Wave Race game. They don't even come close to being the same.
If Capcom wins, I loose all faith in the court systems.
Loosened is okay, just as long as you don't actually lose it.
I hope it has a Wii U Game Pad quality screen.
Yoshi's Story is still better than a large amount of NES games to play.
So why buy amiibo if they don't offer any advantages?
2010 is one of the worst games I have ever played.
Then you've not played many games.
They sunk so low by giving us content we want? Not all of it that we want but that may come later.
I would rather have another game like F-Zero / 1080 / Excitetruck or Waverace.
I would buy those too but Mario Kart is where its at.
Hmm. More courses, characters, karts and colors for the next few years or sympathising with fans who don't want to download too much digital content...
Sorry, I gotta go with more content.
I hope they keep releasing new packs every May and November every year until Mario Kart 9 is released.
Why in Arceus's name would anybody pre-order DLC.
What exactly is the point of pre-ordering DLC? It's not like it'll sell out.
Because you can have multi-colored Yoshies and Shy Guys right now. Its an incentive for people to give money to Nintendo now for something they're going to buy anyway.
About time Mario Kart evolved into Nintendo Kart.
It's exactly the same as pirating music, videos, or anything else the internet has to offer. IT'S BAD.
If its so bad then the authorities would step up their game on closing down the websites that provide us with free entertainment.
I download old games to add screenshots to GameFAQs.
I have currently contributed 61084 so far.
And I still pay for the Virtual Console games that I want.
Do real life car fans hate bad real life cars appearing in videogames, regardless of how they actually play in the game?
I really like SteamWorld Dig but £4.99 to play it again on Wii U when I can just flip out my 3DS feels a bit much,
I would imagine the clearer graphics and wider screen really helps the game.
SteamWorld Dig for me but its not much of a saving for owning the 3DS version.
Will also think about downloading the GB Mega Man games.
This game was seriously difficult for me on the 3DS until I found out you could wall jump like Mega Man X. I'm waiting for a sale since I already have the first one.
Yeah. The Mercedes thing is kind of a stupid idea. You gotta admit it people.
I'm all for more new karts whatever they are. There are actual stupid looking karts in the series since Mario Karts DS
Will get this as soon as it comes to Europe. Already downloaded it on Wii so it will be on offer.
Yeah, even if they're good representations of the sport, its still a sports game.
why are 3ds vc games more expensive than the same game on wii u?
gonna get super punch out!!
Getting all discounted NES games except Mario 3.
a grown 30 something year old man watching an elmo movie and relating everything to sex wherever he can and making pedophile voices?
An adult watching kids movies to make fun of them from an adult perspective for other adults is pretty much what these internet movie reviewers do. I didn't see anything worse than a typical South Park episode.
Where is Mega Raichu?
And I wish Mega Evolutions were restricted only to Pokemon with three stages of evolution already. Not given to those with only one or two stages since a Mega Evolution effectively ends that Pokemon's evolutionary stages. Could have future new prevo Pokemon for the likes of Swablu and Mawlie.
Very poor decision by Konami to not release the JP version instead.
They're not going to release a Japanese language version when a english version exists, even if it is in 50hz.
Perhaps they should release both versions for the cost of one so that players can choose which they want to play.
Whats in the box that always rocks!?
@kurtasbestos They're not tricking Nintendo fans!
Hope its released in Europe soon.
but i already have it on snes
Do you still play it on your SNES? I believe people play more old games on VC than they do on the original console.
Not buying a German car, not even a virtual, so I'll skip that.
I'm thinking you will have to download it to be able to race online since others will be using it. Also, what do you have against the Germans?
Mario named Yoshi. Yoshi was named after the island he was found upon. Going by the Super Mario World instruction booklet.
Stop with all that Megaman tho Capcom..u have many good games!
The games you're talking about are either licensed from Marvel or Disney so no go. Or they are not on consoles supported by the Virtual Console, so no go again.
Otherwise, we are getting several other Capcom games that aren't Mega Man in the coming months.
No great loss.
Yes, it sucks how we have been getting some VC games first long before America does and a lot more discounts than in America. They don't even have Super Mario Kart yet.
I didn't get Kirby's Adventure 3D Classic because I thought it was too expensive for what it is. I downloaded the NES game on Wii years ago and only had to pay 99p for it on Wii U. I don't need it on 3DS as well.
Are you sure Mach Rider is £3.59? Every other NES game is £3.49.
I have The Lost Levels and Kid Icarus, I'll be getting the other five NES games on sale. £1.74 is an acceptable price for them. But these are what they should have cost in the first place. Hopefully Metroid will be on sale next week.
I'll be getting it but I think they should have spread out the Battle Network games more. I only just downloaded the last Battle Network game.
Is it worth $30?
Played it only to submit screenshots of it to GameFAQs. Didn't like it.
Enjoyed it but it became very loose and unguided towards the end.
And NES Mother was never given an official translation so that won't appear.
The 3DS VC is for the most part treated like a dumping ground for NES games.
They'll run out eventually. My problem is that they are more expensive on 3DS than on Wii U.
Oh dear 2014 and they're still releasing 50hz JUNK,
If it only exists in 50hz, then it will only get released in 50hz. I'm sure they won't release a Japanese language game when there is a 50hz engfish language version.
Forget about anything from the Saturn being released on Virtual Console.
Thing about it is what happens if the console ends up dead for whatever reason ? All the content is potentially lost (Which always ends up being loads more than a new system).
I have games from 2006 when i first started downloading games on Virtual Console. Yes, its possible but its not as common as critics want it to be.
Getting the three Mega Man games. and the five cheap NES games. Already have Mario and Zelda but not the others. Urban Champion is even worth it at that cost.
I don't like the 80s games. They're too dated for me.
oh and 50hz? smh...
There doesn't exist a 60hz version in english.
Nice Hikaru avatar there. I prefer Modoka personally.
Would buy it again at a lower cost than normal. Awesome game. I just can't beat the final boss.

Reviewed: 27 August 2014 by KitsiKiki, a Straight Married Female
I ordered this item in a twofer deal along with a sister product (Doc Johnson Spectra Gel Beaded 6-inch Butt Plug). They are the first two butt plugs I and my partner have tried - and it has me hankering to expand our collection!
I originally purchased the slimmer plug for myself and this stuffer for the spouse as he has - politely phrased - the more capacious caboose (and more experience with anal toys to boot). The squidgy material is not only fun to play around with, but allows for comfortable insertion and a more natural feeling; flesh-like but slicker. This can present its own problem of course- it is slippery when wet and may become prone to dolphinic aerobatics post-lubing. Some juggling lessons may be advised.
Once you've finished your soap-in-the-shower routine, however, the tapered nub allows for ease of insertion provided you've had some previous experience with anal play. I would not recommend this for the nervous novice due to the toy's voluptuous full figure.
Butt (see what I did there?) nor would I call it accoutrement for the advanced. By the time we acquired this, the hubby had already experienced the Doc J. Crystal Jellies 12-incher more than a few times, so this was nothing to him. Nevertheless, he came within moments of insertion.
With a little practice, I am sure I will soon be filling my own -er- time with this chubby little buddy.
We have both become fast fans of the Doc Johnson range and this toy is no exception. Those of sensitive olfactories be warned: the spectra gel does have a artificial-sweet smell to it, but it should fade (and I actually like it). The packaging hits the only marks I care about: minimal, easy to open, recyclable.
- Pros
- Lovely squishiness, easy to use, nice full feeling and pretty to look at.
- Cons
- The base could perhaps be a little more substantial.
- Bottom line
- Not for the novice, but may not be up to the task for advanced pluggers.

Reviewed: 22 August 2014 by Andi65
This is absolutely incredible.
It feels wonderful once inserted, which can be a bit fiddly the first two or three uses. But a bit of practice, of which you'll get plenty with this, and you're well on your way to going weak at the knees.
Unlike some larger anal toys, this anal stuffer can be 'worn' for extended periods with no discomfort. I've been wearing it since approx 8pm and it's now well after midnight!
It's a wonderful feeling having the more than occasional squirm whilst watching TV.
Stop reading this and get ordering. Don't worry, it will fit! :-)

- Everything!

- Nothing!

You need this in your bum
Reviewed: 01 August 2014 by NC2, a Straight Single Male
OMG! I love this toy.
Gives you an amazing full sensation without being over-stretched. Feels so good going in and out, and left in, with the bumps giving an extra sensation.
Can be a little tricky getting in as it is rather floppy, but firm. I personally find the best way to insert it is to hold the base and sit on it.
Not for complete novices, but you don't have to be too far up the anal ladder to use it comfortably.
- Pros
- Everything.
- Cons
- Nothing.
- Bottom line
- Fantastic anal toy. Perfect for my bum.

An interesting beer for sure. It appears in the glass as the standard Duvel with just a slight bit of added haze, and also as the standard Duvel malt and yeast base in its flavor make up.
There are hops, however! Lots of hops for sure! It really take the standard Duvel up in hops, and I think it even takes the former Duvel Triple Hop up a bit (although without a side by side comparison I'm only going from memory). It's more about hop flavor than it is about hops in the nose, and I think that's a good way to go - not that you don't get hop aroma, just that the focus seems to be more on the hop's contribution to the overall taste.
With that said, it remains really well-balanced, and it takes the citrusy and somewhat floral-spicy hops to the edge without going overboard. And that's a good thing. Americans tend to go for the biggest and the boldest (which is good in a way because it leads to stretching the boundaries of what we do), but they should try to learn a little restraint from the Europeans as well. Voltaire once wrote: "Le secret d'ennuyer est celui de tout dire" (The secret of being a bore is to tell everything), and it's true. When everything is presented clearly, and quite "in your face" - brutally, even - there's nothing left but to acknowledge it. A little bit of a suggestion, however, leaves things open for interpretation, discussion, and creative thought.
Turning 180 degrees on that argument, what I really find here is that after a few ounces it becomes quite focused on a lemony citrus note, and I don't recall that in its previous incarnation. Of course, again, I'm going from memory but I recall a bit more floral and spice (saaz-like) character. It would be nice if there were more intricacies, but you can hardly fault it for that.
Overall, impressive.

Pours pale gold with a large lasting head.
Nose shows lychee, passion-fruit, spicy phenols, light malt, pear and apple esters. Also some doughy notes.
Flavours are similar at first with a bit of fruit and spicy notes. There's a fair bit of booze in the finish.
Too much carbonation.

Bottle: Poured a hazy golden color ale with a rather large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of dry Nobel hops notes with light dill notes with pear notes and some light peppery yeast notes. Taste is also dominated by dill notes with some quite dry Saaz notes with some light dill from the Citra and some pear ester with a peppery yeast finish. Body is quite full with good carbonation and no apparent alcohol. Solid beer with nice dose of Saaz and limited Citra which might not be a bad thing.

I'm probably going to skew the numbers here, because I think this is an excellent beer. I must confess that I am partial to Duvel, and also DIPAs and BSPAs. I have had the 2010 Duvel Tripel Hop and found it to be a good beer, but I wasn't overwhelmed. I would say I preferred the standard Duvel. Recently had the Duvel Rustica by Ommegang (owned by Duvel Morrtgat) , which I found to be a very nice take on the classic... Duvel in a farmhousey-kinda way. I wish I had another bottle of the 2010 to re-evaluate my tastes.
Psyched when I saw this on the rack.
A: Always a perfect "5" for me - this is how I want a pale ale to look. Crystal clear pale gold beer with a "big-as-you-want-it" head of frost white sea foam. Laces and drapes are left behind. Bubbles stream joyfully from the bottom of my tulip throughout the session.
S: Reminiscent of fields of hay; bright Belgian yeast notes; vague citrus of grapefruit and lemon, subtly in the background
T: Fresh crisp malt and sharp hops, edges of grapefruit and bright citrus; sweeter wine-like flavors move effortlessly across the palate; with warming, flavors blossomed into orchards of fruit and white wine grapes with lemony zest
M: Soft meets sharp - creamy pale malts slip across the tongue at the same time the effervescence startles the palate; refreshing and bracing, but also an easy slow-sipper.
O: Fantastic beer.
If Ommegang's Duvel Rustica was the "Duvel saison," then this is the Duvel Imperial. The Citra hops really bang their flavors across the normal palette of Duvel tastes. This is so tempting for me to go "5"'s across the boards, but I'm sure there's some taint of enthusiasm.
I would enthusiastically recommend this beer. I think it was at least a $20 bottle in my area, but it's worth it. This is an excellent celebratory beer, and it is also worthy of celebration. This is a "you-owe-it-yourself" beer (assuming you're into Belgian pales and Duvel-esque beers) - not to be passed up on.

4.29/5 rDev -0.5%
A: The beer is crystal clear yellow in color and has a moderate to high amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a finger high bright white head that has excellent retention properties and consistently left a short head covering the surface and lots of lacing down the sides of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of citrusy hops are present in the nose - ruby red grapefruit seems to stand out in particular.
T: Like the smell, flavors of grapefruit dominate the taste, but these aren't as prominent and overpowering as those found in West Coast IPAs from America. It has a light to moderate amount of bitterness along with hints of Belgian yeast. The grapefruit lingers through the finish.
M: It feels medium-bodied and crisp on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: The crispness and balance of this beer makes it very refreshing and easy to drink. Any traces of alcohol are very well hidden from the taste.

4.14/5 rDev -3.9%
A: pours a bright yellow into a duel tulip with a rocky two finger head that has excellent staying power
S: smells of citrus, spicy yeast, some fruity esters and a bit of light bready malt
T: light and fruity on the front with some citrusy character coming into a play, a bit of bready malt and light sweetness and well as some slight earthyness. swallow brings a menthol like finish, a slight tinge of citrus and a whisper of fruity esters
M: lighter side of medium in the mouth with ample and prickly carbonation. fairly neutral finish

Usual 330ml bottle: BBD of 02 2015, poured into a Duvel glass at home on 23rd 06 2013.
Looks great in the glass, golden, bright and clear: huge white foaming head with large carbonisation bubbles rising up to replenish it.
Grapefruit flavours rule the nose and taste: really strong and heavy. However the alcohol can also be noticed within the taste. Not too well balanced, the malts hardly getting a look in, but if you are crazy about Citra hops this is the beer for you (I'm not a Citra fan really).
Crisp, refreshing and grapefruity throughout.

A Cut Above Hair Studio is a Redken Elite Salon. That means the on-staff hairstylists, colorists, nail technicians, and skincare specialists not only boast years of practice, but they do their diligence to stay up-to-date on the latest trends and techniques.
Over on the salon side, stylists provide designer cuts personalized to each client; they'll add color, give hair shape and volume, or straighten it to create a look that suits their client's individual features and lifestyle. Skincare services are just as personalized?during the custom spa facial, aestheticians employ warm towels, toners, moisturizers, and steam to wrestle out whatever blemishes are interfering with skin's natural radiance. Massages and body wraps round out the pampering services, offering respite from stresses such as work deadlines or trying to get your dog to eat your homework.
Ocean Spa & Massage may be hundreds of miles from the nearest ocean, but that doesn't stop the staff from trying to recreate the experience of lounging on an exotic beach. They largely succeed, thanks to a treatment menu that features relaxing massages, body waxing, and mani-pedis to go along with a full list of indulgent skin treatments. One of those treatments?the detoxifying mud cocoon?draws out impurities and induces metamorphosis with an application of warm mud followed by a thermal wrap.
At Bellagio Nails, licensed practitioners decorate fingers and toes with everything from no-chip polish to nail-art acrylics. Spa pedicures incorporate luxury touches such as hot-stone therapy and sea-salt scrubs, which make feet happier than socks made from penguin feathers. There are waxing services as well, which can be performed on legs, brows, underarms, and bikini lines.
Despite a long list of beautifying hair services and soothing massages, the most important sense at C'zar Salon-Spa is not sight or touch, but smell. Stemming from natural Aveda products, aromas drift throughout the space, tinting the air with rosemary, peppermint, and lavender scents that evoke pastoral scenes pulled straight out of the organic farms on which many of their ingredients grew. The Stress-Fix line of lotions?whose fragrances help to reduce anxiety?cloaks hands and feet in sage during specialty mani-pedis, and customized blends of essential oils augment Elemental Nature massages and facials.
Plants play a role in even the most detailed procedures at C'zar Salon-Spa. Flowers contribute extracts to the salon's cosmetics, and Nufree hair-removal formulas provide a botanical alternative to wax that's more gentle than tweezing with a venus flytrap. Although they don't incorporate leafy greens, wellness treatments such as acupuncture and cupping strive to round out makeovers by goading the body?s healing processes. For special events, the staff can accommodate groups inside the calming venue or transport their perfumed practices to a specified location.
Tucked inside J. Alison Salon and Day Spa, Kiss Spa's massaging chairs and whirlpool footbaths set the stage for classic and creative nail treatments performed by the salon's newest nail techs. In addition to traditional nail services, staffers can pamper skin and make feet fervently wish for taste buds with the Ice Cream pedicure's marshmallow foot mask and strawberry-kiwi-body-butter treatments.
At Paul Joseph Salon & Spa, an Aveda Lifestyle salon, 11 Aveda-trained professional stylists and two Aveda-trained spa providers revamp hair, skin, and nails with natural and eco-friendly products. To keep their skills up to snuff, they are dedicated to regular training sessions from Aveda. After hair-color consultations, stylists mix batches of Aveda's 99% naturally derived color formulas to suit clients' needs with permanent color, foil highlighting, and demi-permanent color. The spa providers rejuvenate faces with eight facials designed to reduce the signs of aging, heal blemishes, or even out skin tone, and nail technicians pamper hands and feet in relaxing nail suites with natural mani-pedis. Wielding Aveda's plant-based wax infused with essential oils, the staff deftly removes unwanted hair from the face and body, helping clients to look more like salamanders.

SHEPHERDSVILLE - Two local authors have received a great deal of success, and that's not fiction.
Amy McCorkle, with her co-author Melissa Goodman, have achieved success this year in the form of multiple awards from various independent organizations.
The duo received nominations for two separate awards at the 2014 FandomFest event at the Galt House in Louisville Aug.1-3. The nominations are both for screenplays, featuring the works, "Bella Morte" and "City of the Damned."
LOUISVILLE - Residents in Bullitt County will see a lot of classic street rods in the community this week.
It is time for the National Street Rod Association's annual Street Rod Nationals in Louisville.
Between 10,000 and 15,000 vintage automobiles will make the visit to Louisville for show, which will be held at the Kentucky Exposition Center.
Members from across the world will gather for this unique event. The NSRA will include vehicles from the 50s, 60s and 70s.
FRANKFORT — Kentucky high school students and 2014 graduates should check their Kentucky Educational Excellence Scholarship (KEES) accounts for accuracy.
KEES allows students to earn money for college by getting good grades in high school and for qualifying scores on the ACT or SAT. Students eligible for free or reduced lunches may also earn awards for good scores on Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate exams. KEES is administered by the Kentucky Higher Education Assistance Authority (KHEAA).
Visiting students, ages 15-18, from around the world including Germany, Spain, Switzerland, and Thailand are seeking host families in and around Shepherdsville for the upcoming 2014-2015 academic school year.
Host families are needed for the fall semester and full school year.
Walk on the Wild Side at Indiana Animal Preservation
It was a shared Facebook post that led our family to discover one of the best days of our summer vacation.
Wildlife In Need (WIN) is located in Clark County, Ind.
WIN is home to hundreds of indigenous, exotic and endangered animals. The animals are very active and healthy.
They appear to be very happy and have an amazing bond with Tim Stark, the owner of WIN.
SHEPHERDSVILLE -- The Bullitt County Arts Council is looking for a place to call their own.
Beginning next month, the group will start having fundraisers to build an arts center.
"It's something we are all pretty excited about," said Arts Council President Donna Burke.
She said they are looking at a few pieces of land and have made up a tentative drawing of the building which will include an art gallery/gift shop and meeting/event rooms for the three divisions of the council.
SHEPHERDSVILLE -- They all have different stories but one thing in common—a love for music.
Recently 16 people competed to become Bullitt County Vocalists of Year sponsored by the Bullitt County Arts Council. And three came out on top.
In the adult category Nichols resident Matthew Armstrong was the winner.
The 24-year-old said music has always been a part of his life.
"I started singing when I was five years old at a little church my uncle used to pastor at," he said.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - With less than two weeks to go before the filing deadline, there are few candidates who have jumped into the various non-partisan races.
And no one has filed for the two school board seats which will be contested.
The filing deadline is at 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 12, in the Bullitt County Clerk's office.
The general election is on Tuesday, Nov. 4.
In the race for Mount Washington, incumbent Joetta Calhoun will not run for re-election.
Recently, St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church in Mount Washington celebrated a special occasion.
The congregation had a note-burning ceremony to celebrate the paying off of the mortgage on their new church in about four years.
The Rev. Dale Cieslik, the church pastor, thanked the members for their generosity.
"It's through giving back to God through you that this house was built."
After the note-burning, parishioners released balloons to symbolize their debt being lifted.
The Family Resource Centers in Bullitt County combined their efforts to once again host the Kindergarten Rocks celebration at Paroquet Springs Conference Centre.
Youngsters entering Kindergarten this year were invited to meet some of their teachers and principals, as well as partake in some fun activities.

This is a good product with a few tweaks it could be the best product on the market. Minor additions could help make this fridge a silent runner. This product is very air tight which is a great feature but at times it makes the doors hard to open. A device should be designed that will keep it air tight but allow for a smoother opening. The ice maker on the door is why we purchased this fridge. It is a great feature because it allows for more freezer space that is always needed. A slightly deeper inset or larger bottom for the water and ice dispenser would also make for a good selling point. The simplest thing would be to design a bottom that could pull out about an inch when needed. I am a believer in easy solutions and I would design a feature that with a press of a button rolling wheels could be lowered to make the item easy to move for cleaning, etc. purposes. Thanks for the chance to enter your program.

Comments about Whirlpool Side By Side Monochromatic Stainless Steel Refrigerator:
Works well but the ice maker clogs with ice from time to time. Also, the ice chute release has broken but the actual piece that needs to be replaced is not sold anywhere. Have to go buy a new one because my warranty is gone and it is more cost effective than calling a repair person.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This was our second one & its dependablility was the maiin reason for buying a second. It has more usualble room than other s/s.
Almost great.
By Duff

Very happy with everything about my new fridge except.... The pull out fresh foods drawers are horribly designed. Plastic on plastic that doesn't slide easily, and screeches when you open, even with no food weighing the drawer down. You would think this would never have passed the manufacturing testing.
this product has wonderful features

Even though it broke down within a few months of owning. The place where we bought was quick to have someone out to repair it. It runs beautifully now and I couldn't ask for anything more. I would not hesitate to purchase another Whirlpool brand item.
Best Choice!

The is a wonderful fridge! Great room and expandability for my family of five! My sons love the water and ice dispensers!
Solid quality, Great performance, and Average features for a good value
By skipolin21
from nj
Likes: Cooling/freezing performance is excellent while not running too often nor too loudly (though not whisper quiet either, but decent for this price point). In refrigerator side, storage layout, huge door bins, and glass shelves are quality and well designed. Ice maker "on-door" is a great feature and better overall compared to the old drawer style. Dislikes: Exterior door console style is outdated and light does not turn on when water or ice is dispensed (this is annoying because the 20 y/o whirlpool I replaced had the light function when the water or ice was dispensed). Freezer racks are basic and don't pull out making storage less accessible. Bottom line: Solid quality, Great performance, and average features for a good value. Just remember to give the salesperson and whirlpool customer service a hard time about the light in the external door console not functioning when water or ice is dispensed!!!

text: STERN WARNINGS FOR UGANDA WES Newsdesk-London 16 June 2012 Uganda is east Africa's third-largest economy, with growth rates over 6% over the last two years. This year the picture may not be the same. Official statistics indicate growth is expected to tumble in "the fiscal year ending this month to 3.2% from 6.7% in the previous year". Ahmadou Moustapha Ndiaye, World Bank country manager in Uganda stated that "the slide in growth was undermining the country's recovery from the 2008-09 global economic turmoil". Warnings from the World Bank are that "Uganda must move up the value chain in agricultural production, create more jobs outside farming and tame double-digit inflation to get its economy back on a vigorous growth path". Indeed most industry in Uganda is related to agriculture, however mechanisation is inadequate and much of the output is sold in semi-processed form, severely limiting earnings from the sector. Ndiaye stated that "Uganda must transform from low to higher productivity activities. On the production side, agriculture, which is the bedrock for Uganda's industrialisation must transform and become more productive." AFRICA'S CUP OF COFFEE Uganda is Africa's biggest coffee exporter; however shipments of the beans are expected to drop 33% this month that's according to the Uganda Coffee Development Authority. The inconsistent coffee breaks or disruptions are due to the effects of climate change, which hit Uganda's coffee production. Experts say this could continue affecting the crop if good agricultural practices are not put in place. Ndiaye said average farm yields in Uganda were below 40% of those achieved at Uganda's research stations and the country needed to step up industrialisation in agri-processing to "achieve convergence" with middle income countries. Moreover, the performance of the farm sector, whose contribution to growth has decreased still, employs over 70% of the population. Ndiaye added, "Uganda also needs to create jobs outside of agriculture. Job creation is imperative because Uganda has one of the fastest growing workforces on the planet". The government has also been slated for underfunding the agriculture sector. More bleak news is that the country's banking industry has been wary of increasing credit to agriculture, citing its risk profile. THE DEBT BURDEN The GOOD NEWS for Uganda is, according to experts is that the transport, telecommunications and financial services sectors are expected to remain dynamic due to the link with the East African undersea Internet cable. There is also an increase in economic activity in the mining and construction sector due to on-going investments in energy infrastructure, and the oil exploration activities in western Uganda. Hence Foreign Direct Investment will continue to grow and international aid will remain crucial. However, the BAD NEWS is the current account balance will remain in deficit amid the continuing high volume of imports of capital goods and fuel. Uganda is one of the main African beneficiaries of public development aid. It was the first country to be eligible for the Heavily Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC) initiative and had virtually all of its foreign debts scrapped by the IMF, World Bank, and major donors. However it still has foreign debt 80% of which is held by multilateral institutions. This is expected to remain at sustainable levels. THE RISK FACTOR The major risk deterring foreign investors is Uganda's infrastructural deficiencies, particularly concerning energy, which constrain the development of manufacturing. The government is keen on expanding Uganda's manufacturing industry to add value to most commodity exports, however those efforts remain largely thwarted by insufficient power and poor infrastructure. In 2011, the government made a substantial increase in its spending on infrastructure under the National Development Plan (2010-2015). The investments will be focused on transportation (Northern Transport Corridor) and energy, with the start of construction of a refinery and an oil distribution network with the actual extraction of oil expected at 150,000 barrels per day. Another factor is political and security instability with recurring tensions in northern regions continuing due to instability in South Sudan and the Democratic of Republic of Congo (DRC). South-eastern Uganda has also continued to suffer from the consequences of the Rwandan conflict. Despite the joint intervention of Uganda, DRC, and the government of South Sudan against the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA), insecurity still persists in northern Uganda. "Investors like stable and predictable environments that allow for effective planning. To regain investor confidence, therefore, there should be stability, inflation at single digit level." Another contributory risk factor is Uganda's informal economy that evades the tax system. INVESTOR REWARDS But does the risk exceed the rewards? Trade wise, Uganda is in an enviable position as compared to some African states. It's attracts dominant nations as trade partners such as the United States, China, Russia, Switzerland and Norway. The rewards for investors are the country's diversified economy such as agriculture, fishing and minerals. Tourism has potential, receiving an economic boost from the government. There is also the international institution backing for infrastructure projects in transport, education and energy. In 2006, Uganda struck it big with commercial hydrocarbon deposits in its Albertine rift basin along the border with the DRC; the government estimates reserves at 2.5 billion barrels. However, the current trend and the greatest reward for investors is oil with expectations that Uganda could become the 5th biggest oil producer of sub- Saharan Africa. February this year, the Ugandan government signed production agreements with the London-based company, Tullow oil. The deals pave the way for a £6bn investment in a refinery and crude oil export pipeline. Subsequently, Tullow will sell two-thirds of its interest in the Lake Albert Rift Basin to a Chinese company, CNOOC and the French firm, Total. Oil is certainly a reward factor; however the oil trinket is a potential risk if there is no transparency or accountability. NGO's and international institutions such as the World Bank have called for Uganda to join the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI), a coalition of governments, companies and civil society groups that aims to improve transparency and accountability. This will send a clear message to investors and international financial institutions that the government is committed to greater transparency.
