A resort facing Malacca Strait
Formerly known as Riveira Resort. It is 14 stories of hotel and apartment where you could have a breathtaking view of Malacca Strait and a big swimming pool. There are hotel room, 1-bed, 2-bed and 3-bed apartment for a family outing.
Under the new management, i feel that the hotel need a refurbishment even tough the room condition is still okay.
I stayed at 11th floor deluxe room. There are separate sleeping area and viewing area + mini bar area. The wind is so windy on this floor.
Unique Quality: great view of Malacca Strait with good windy balcony.
Directions: From Tengkera Mosque go straight towards Masjid Tanah using Klebang coastal road.
I stayed there twice. ON both occasion I find the hotel comfortable. Though most of the time, assuming its ahit with tourist from SIngapore, the hotel was crowded. My kids enjoys the swimming pool . I do think however that the pool can be cleaner at both times. If you do plan to stay there , getthe room facing the sea, they are better than the ones facing the road.
Beautiful suites with great view
Spacious room with a great view of the straits of Malacca....a 10 min drive from the city though...good for a getaway. Not recommended for those who want to be close to the shopping area all the time.
Unique Quality: All the rooms are actually mini-suites....with a separate living area and bedroom, plus a big bathroom.
Great pampering hotel but not in France!

Posted by Nancy. (This was originally posted a couple of weeks ago, but there was some reaction to the references to Intel products. We've removed these, because the original piece was just too useful to shelve.)
Hi everyone! My name is Nancy and I work for Intel Canada and am a Mom of 2 kids. I have learned that there are some really cool things that technology can do to simplify my life. Aren't we are all looking for that perfect, portable gadget to fit into our busy, multitasking lifestyles? And looking for what is actually out there that can help us stay connected, yet mobile and productive? Well, hopefully I will be able to answer a few questions regarding the cool tools that help make our lives easier.
First up, I'd like to tell you about something that most of us are dealing with right now: kids' homework assignments. I want to talk about how having the right computer can make the homework process less stressful!
This past year, my daughter had to complete a Grade 10 geography project. A team of 5 girls worked all weekend at our house to create a video that needed to be handed in on Monday morning. My daughter began to convert a 40 minute video to DVD Monday 7:30 AM to take to school by 8AM. The anxiety elevated dramatically when she realized there was no way it was going to be done in 30 minutes! Three hours later it was finally finished and so I ended up driving it over to the school to hand in her project. (I worked from home that day- I know I'm lucky I have that flexibility)
Why did it take so long? Well the laptop she has is almost 3 years old. Yes, being in the technology industry you think I'd have the latest and greatest but hand-me-downs happen in my house. However, if I had been working at full capacity that weekend I should have had her do the video editing off of the the much newer (and faster!) system (duh!) that I recently purchased. It would have been roughly 50 times faster which I'm sure would cut the time in half at least.
So if you see heavy computer use in your kids' homework futures, don't forget to check to see how old your PC is, and/or how slow its processor is. If it is getting a bit long in the tooth you might spend more time sitting beside your kids while they stare at the screen than you'd like!

Rick Scott ran for governor as a nonpolitician and self-styled political outsider. He threatened to make the Tallahassee establishment pols quake in their boots and weep in their drinks. There would be a new sheriff in town.
Well, flash forward to summer 2013, and the new sheriff has become very much like the old sheriff. Rick Scott has become the thing he despised: a politician. Too much so, in my view. He spends less time governing than he does campaigning. And he's campaigning all the time. The governor who rarely turned up in South Florida after his election is now here — and around the state — all the time for a nonstop parade of well-orchestrated photo ops, awards ceremonies and bill signings.
Take the elaborate production in North Miami that accompanied the signing of the no-texting-while-driving bill, about which Scott was largely noncommittal during the legislative session. But the stage at Alonzo and Tracy Mourning High could barely hold the several dozen invitees. Scott arrived and patiently shook every hand in sight before thanking everyone present he could name. Quite a change from the awkward and ill-at-ease neophyte who would zip into such events, make a few brief, uninspired remarks and run out before it was over without so much as a buh-bye.
Now, Scott comes early and stays late. In North Miami the once media-shy governor waded right into the media gaggle for a few minutes and remained afterwards for photographs with all comers. The state photographer snapped pictures of Scott and whoever was in the vicinity and handed out business cards so they could be sent a copy. I'm sure they'll be autographed, too. The governor is even sending little hand-written notes to — of all people! — reporters. I've received a couple. Nice, but not necessary.
We're witnessing the roll-out of a repackaged, highly coached and media-friendly Rick Scott. The problem is that his metamorphosis feels forced, unnatural, Pavlovian. It's like Scott had a facelift, lipo and got a personal shopper, but still thinks of himself as the nerdy guy he was before the makeover. Scott's transformation is cosmetic, not organic. He was never a natural at the political banter and glad-handing at which some politicians — say, Charlie Crist — excel. But his rough-around-the-edges political persona at least had the feel of authenticity. That's not a quality I could ascribe to the new, but not necessarily improved, Rick Scott.
What hasn't changed is his laser-like focus on a few key themes: Job creation, making Florida the No. 1 place to do business, keeping the cost of living low for families and providing good K-12 schools and affordable higher ed. Worthy goals all, to be sure. Scott keeps repeating that mantra at every opportunity. He repeated them in a letter he recently sent to a friend who had renewed her real-estate license. The letter, on the governor's letterhead and which cost 38 cents to mail, is one of many thinly disguised campaign ploys.
Every incumbent uses his office in small ways to advance his reelection. Scott is using his office shamelessly to advance his chances for a second term. I receive on average 20 emails a day from the governor's press office announcing everything from the appointment of new members to state boards and commissions to copies of favorable articles and videos of his appearances. His office has created a Twitter account called "What's Working" that praises whatever Scott does. Currently, he's taking several victory laps around the state signing various bills, most of which were passed without his input or support. Scott is practicing the kind of political self-aggrandizement — using the imprimatur and power of the governor's office — that is the very kind of thing he promised to end.
The governor has mounted a crafty, but thus far largely unpersuasive, PR campaign to change voters' perceptions. Will it work? We won't know for another 17 months. For a long time he wasn't enough of a politician. Now he's too much of one. Perhaps Scott will find the right balance between now and November 2014.
For the moment, his makeover strategy is too transparent, too studied and, yes, too phony. I suspect it's going to get old fast.

3.75/5 rDev -6.9%
Appearance: Pours a dark brown, near black body with a huge, foamy beige head. Copious amounts of lacing.
Smell: The aroma is a blending of freshly-peeled citrus fruits and burnt chocolate cookies.
Taste: Double Fudge cookies with a reasonable sweetness that blends into an oven-roasted fruitiness and the taste of creosote-soaked citrus hops. A mild smokiness appears midway, as does the taste of hearty nine-grain bread. Finishes dry and bitter with an extra helping of roast.
Mouthfeel: Medium-full body. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: An interesting, unique hrbid beer for sure with plenty to offer and begs (if not requires) to be sipped.

Tried on-tap at the Local Taphouse in Darlinghurst on 30/10/2010.
A: Very dark brown with some tinges of red and a bubbly head.
N: Wow, there's the hop hit. Fresh hops which are very nice but I maybe expected them to be more musty in character than this. Hops very dominant.
T: Yes, the hops are still there. Really quite prominent.
M: Spot on for the style, fairly heavy but not quite as full as an Imperial Stout. Maybe a bit too much carbonation apparent through the mid-palate.
Overall, pretty good, though I admit I wasn't expecting quite the level of hops that appear in nose and taste. I imagine that's what differentiates an American barleywine from an English barleywine.

500ml bottle served in a Duvel tulip. Been saving this one for rating #100, how appropriate.
Pours brown with a two finger light tan head that holds together very nicely and leaves lots of lacing.
Big time aroma of resin hops up front, some citrus, but also plenty of sweet malts, caramel, dark fruits, some brown sugar, vanilla, a touch of chocolate. Quite complex on the nose.
Flavor starts with sweet caramel malts, brown sugar, vanilla, some chocolate, then follows with some bitter resinous hops on the finish.
Mouthfeel is very full and creamy, medium carbonation.
Is this a DIPA or a barleywine? I think it falls somewhere in between the two. An immensely enjoyable and unique brew.

A reasonably vigorous pour produces a four-finger thick, darkish tinged, tan colored head in my Tripel Karmeliet tulip. The beer is a deeply concentrated, burnt amber color that just shows a deep, clear, concentrated ruby hue if held up to the light. This smells of sticky hop character even as I am pouring this beer. A closer inspection confirms this with notes of candied citrus peel, sweetened berry notes, sweet pine sap, orange blossom honey, a soft herbal reek that can lean towards garlic chive at times as well as a touch of menthol aromatics. As is typical with my experience of the new breed, hoppy northern European beers there is still a substantial malt backbone here that contributes a deep toasty grain character, and nice whole grain bread aromatics.
Hoppy from the first taste, this has a bracing bitterness that becomes more astringent and aggressive through to the lingering, bitingly hoppy finish. Lingering herbal notes, menthol, concentrated pine sap, bright bergamot, ruby-red grapefruit, tangerine, ample lychee form the biggest part of the flavor profile, but supporting hop-derived notes of light cured leather, some tobacco flavors, garlic chives and milkweed are also noticeable at a much more subtle level. The malt contributes lots of chewy, viscous body to this brew as well as some light toasted-almost-roasted touches in the finish, hop supporting caramel character, and some malty crushed cracker flavors in the middle that get drowned out by the caramelized malt sweetness by the finish. As the beer warms up in my glass it smoothes out just a bit with some of the harsher hop notes and the bitterness becoming a bit softer and a touch more integrated.
Definitely on the thick side of a double IPA, indeed more in line on this front with a Barley wine, but it certainly plays the hop card in spades as this is clearly the dominant character, even despite the interesting malt depth. This is one of those beers that really needs to warm up (even though it only started at 50°F / 10°C, it was still a bit too cool) and perhaps even breath a bit in order to lose a bit of the sharp, astringent hop edge. This really is just insanely hopped, though I find it quite enjoyable. I definitely am enjoying the depth the mares otter malt adds and even the slight roasted note from the chocolate malt is a nice addition.

Dark, porter-like appearance with a decent, but not overly aggressive head. Seems a little bit too dark almost.
Slightly vinous, malty nose with raisins, plums and a bit of cherry. Brown sugar, sultana raisins, light brandy and dark chocolate in the flavour. A little more hops than expected, and this tends to lend a bit of a slightly sour, metallic bitterness. This eases a bit as it warm, but it gives way to a mild alcohol warmth.
Smooth mouthfeel, nice low carbonation. Loses drinkability points for ABV and alcohol warmth.

Wickedpete sends another great beer to me via trade, cool runnings!!
Wow, an easy pour of dark oak fires up a massive tan milkshake of head. Malty aroma proceeds a chocolate coffee quaff. Not your typical BW, much different with the malts. A very tasty brew, more of a porter/stout than BW but Im the better man for having the chance to partake of this one.
Bottom covered in yeasty slough, the velvety smoothness easily masks the high octane.

Pours a hazy mahogany color with orange edges. The frothy espresso colored head lasts a short while, mustering up plenty of lace trails and patches on the glass. The aroma is equal parts roasty, chocolaty malts and citric, pithy hops. Eucalyptus, pine and lemon hop notes hit first in the taste. A wall of malts mixed with a warming, spicy alcohol kick show shortly after. Rum cake, cherries, vanilla and cocoa all show. There's a whiff of soy sauce as well. The finish is moderately bitter and boozy. The mouthfeel is full bodied with lots of dextrins. Carbonation is creamy in texture.
This is a good, hop forward Barleywine. Lots of complexity and a unique hop profile. The only drawback is the immodest alcohol taste - understandable for the ABV, but many others have done much better. Still though, this is a great winter sipper. Worth a try for sure.

Shared pint bottle thanks to JSquires via Papsoe. Big head with soapy bubbles on brown, lacing. Very bitter, carbonation tingle the tongue. Hop oily, herbal character. Warming alcohol. Did not get the malt and the balance, rather astringent hop leaf.
Second bottle via Boutip, fresher and 8 months later, An imperial pale, quoting Old Faithful. Dark, piney, lacey. Well done and upgraded substantially.
Had it again two years later, appearance of black with lots of lace and big head. Aroma of barley and hops. Just as big and different.

T-Heavy, a little oily, again with the light citrus and hops, pine and like the smell pleasantly sweet and hoppy combination
M-Thick and chewy with creamy carbonation.
O-Interesting version of a Barley wine I'm not accustomed to, appears dark but tastes light and at 10% the ABV is well hidden in the taste, though I can feel the effects. I do like this brew, but it is an expensive one.

500 ml bottle into snifter, no bottle date. Pours cloudy dark reddish brown color with a nice 2 finger dense light khaki head with great retention that reduces to a thick cap. Some incredible thick soapy lacing on the glass as well. Aromas of big herbal hops, smokiness, old pine, citrus, caramel, wood, dark fruit, chocolate, light coffee, and spiciness. I have a feeling this is an older bottle. Extremely interesting smelling, and not like fresh hops at all. Taste of big caramel, wood, herbal, molasses, chocolate, biscuit, pine, light citrus, and spicy hops. Fair amount of bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of herbal hops, caramel, chocolate, wood, molasses, and pine on the finish for a while. Medium carbonation and medium-full bodied; with a very creamy and slick mouthfeel that drinks easily for being 10%. Alcohol is well hidden with only a warming on the finish. Overall this is a very nice enjoyable barleywine. Aromas are a bit odd, but it had nice flavor and balance. I would like to pick up a younger bottle in the future.

Deep, deep brown color with a huge fluffy, cocoa head on top. Somewhat metallic and sharp aroma-vinuous. Deep, malty flavor. Nice blend of a caramel/raisin taste. Strong hop bitterness-they really stand out against the heavy malt. Decent enough mouthfeel-has a dry edge to it in the finish. Good barleywine. Not up to par with their RIS and porter but still a solid brew.

Really a DIPA, it has more bw charecter than a DIPA. I'm reviewing this as a bw. Pours a dark brown with a deep malt presence that is mostly caramel and dark fruits. Flavor brings out the hops, there are some hops in the back that leaves a slight bitterness but definitly not of the american hop bomb caliber. Mouthfeel is thick with minimal carbonation. It's really just a big beer, not quite a bw but not quite a DIPA, but enjoyable.

Pours a dark brown with reddish highlights, minimal ring of off white head, decent lacing. Scent is of aggressive carmel, slight hints of smoke and earthy, citrus and piney hops. Taste is quite smooth for the style, solid carmel and roasted background with a good "american" hop presence. Not as sweet as i expected. Medium bodied, only slightly chewy. Good beer, more akin to a Strong Ale or "Imperial" Amber in my eyes.

16.9oz single from Wilbur's in Ft. Collins. Around $10.
A: Cloudy dark brown, fairly murky, with a huge off white head, about three inches worth, that won't go away. Excellent head retention. Big globs of lacing all the way around. Really a nice looking beer.
S: Really interesting for a barleywine, big thick malt presence and a huge hop profile, but has a tangy weizenbock aspect to it as well, fair amount of booze too. Nice smelling beer, but not quite what I usually smell in a barleywine.
T: Lots going on here, barley malt has a big presence, also some dark chocolate, and a bit of roasted coffee going on here as well. Initially has a wheat taste that follows over from the nose, but gets lost under a fairly big malt bill with a nice hop backbone, citrus rind hops are a good balance with this one. Leans a little more towards DIPA than barleywine, but is still, nice, and quite interesting.
M: A lot thinner than I expected, I like a barleywine to have a little bit of a body to it. Fairly warm alcohol.
D: This is not a summer beer, this would be perfect in January, and now that I know that, I know when bottle 2 will be consumed. I could drink more of this than just the one bottle, because it is tasty, and has just in general a nice flavor to it. Nothing really spectacular, but I'd buy it again, a little pricey, but could be worse.

A 500 mL bottle.
A: The barleywine is beautifully dark, midnight black with crimson red highlights. A thick white head is lacing around the sides of my glass.
S: The nose is a caramel, toffee brown ale with a blast of citrus hops. The aroma is overwhelming, grainy to a fault with a big enough hop profile to match it.
T: Nearly as big as the nose, the body is loaded with malts. Darker malts yield a caramel/toffee flavor that manages to outpace the hops. Those hops, while big, aren't as strong as you'd expect. The hops are citrusy, sweet with a grassy undertone. As big as they are, they can't overtake the imperial brown ale.
M: Full but inviting, this is a rarely big American barleywine that shows off more malts than hops. I'm enjoying this one.
D: Too big, this barleywine is too big. One bottle is more than enough for one sitting.

Pours out really nice dark brown with three fingers of really creamy suds. Lacing galore here on the rim of the Stone Barleywine glass.
Smell is a fruity raisin with clove and butterscotch aromas. Slight yeast burn and an alcohol hint.
Taste is caramel and burnt sugars along with a bitter blackness. The latter is mixed with the leftover sugar from the initial taste. A hint of alcohol in the back of the throat.
Mouthfeel is very clean for such a sweet concotion. Only gets sticky after the bitterness leaves the mouth.
Drinkability is pretty nice for such a high abv drink. I really admire this barley wine. Top notch!.

13oz's in a tulip glass at Capone's.
A- Dark brownish with some plum red spots, very dark for a DIPA/Barleywine? Alot of activity in the glass made for a pillow of a medium dark tan fluff that had some of that sticky stuff, lines going down the sides.
S- This ale smells like a small barleywine mixed with some Belgian dark. The hops don't come off like a American Barleywine at all, some of the 3-C's but nothing exploding. Citrus and a few malt varieties and some yeast making for a semi fruity nose and a even less hoppy one.
T- Citrus up front with grapefruit and other minor tropic fruits. In the middle the hops fade off making way for a semi spicy middle with a touch of fresh wheat mixed in for a yeasty finish. There is a taste of alcohol in this 9-10%er. Does not taste like a DIPA, more like a very old (aged) American Barleywine.
M,D- More malty than hoppy, there is not enough bitterness to classify this as American B-Wine territory. Just a mention of bitterness on the tounge while the wheat and malts work the mouth. The body is above medium with a smooth mellow carbonation that is not all that crisp. I had 13oz of this and while I liked it, I was over this before those 13oz were finished. I guess this is really a mix of a DIPA/B-Wine, an odd mix, that get's the job done I guess.

1pt .9fl oz. bottle served in my Old Stock snifter. Poured the color of cola, perhaps a touch redder, with a creamy, one inch off-white head embedded with ringlets. Head eventually settles into a fairly consistent skim with swaths of lacing adhering to the sides of the glass during the tasting. Nose is assertively hoppy in the forefront with some sugary malt in the background and a boozy alcohol/medicinal quality at the back.. Front starts off sugary/malty with a mild dark fruit character, gradually giving way to a light bitterness that peaks and lingers at the finish. A caramel character also comes out as it warms. Mouthfeel is medium-light, subtly carbonated and slightly creamy. Solid example of the style. This one has a couple years on it, so it's evened out a little bit (it must have been quite hoppy in it's prime) - might pick up another bottle to see how it mellows in a couple more years.

Bottled on March 27th 2008 best before 2013, batch no. 348, just got it thru private importing services bieropholie.
Pours a murky medium brown, thick head and medium carbonation that helped to keep a solid crown of foam on the beer. Solid aroma of pungent, cat piss, piney, and grassy hops. Also a hint of smoked malt. Futher smoke malt prensence in flavor with a hint of meaty smoky a bit cloying caramel maltiness.
What's unusual is a coating slick mouthfeel that envellops your mouth making you wonder if the beer is flat. Bubbles are present so I'm thinking maybe theres a unusualy large amount of cristal malts used in this beer.
I'm gonna sit on the rest of these ales to see what happens, all in all a very interresting experience.

Enjoyed this 22oz bomber out of a large snifter glass.
A: Mahogany colored ale with amber highlights with a thin one-finger white head that quickly dissipates into a thin wispy lace.
S: Burnt caramel and malt aromas fill the nose. You can smell the alcohol in this one.
T: General sweetness and caramel barleywine flavors. Very smooth and alcoholic
M: Very strong and boozy. Medium body and carbonation
O: Decent barleywine and enough alcohol to make it interesting.

Had an '07 bottle of this.
Pours dark dark brown. Poured it into a tulip glass and couldn't see through when held up to the light. Filled up about half the glass, and the fluffy head filled up the other half. Moderate retention, with excellent lacing.
Has aromas of citrus and a dark woodiness.
Has a little bit of sharpness and bitterness that you would expect from a barleywine, but they're not as overpowering as some barleywines are.
Feels pretty balanced in the mouth. Has some light carbonation. Not as hot as it could be with the 10% ABV, which is great.
It's a slow sipper. Good for relaxing with after a long day, which is what I'm doing right now.

Poured from a 1 pint 9 ounce bottle with no freshness date. I poured it into a pilner glass, I got about 4 inches of head that stayed for about 5 minutes. Strong scents of dark dried fruits raisins, prunes, some apricots, and green grapes. More prune and malt taste. Some strong grape juice flavor. Really no hop notes. Mouthfeel is pretty heavy and booze is very heavy in the flavor. Drinkable nature is low.

It's been a while, at least for me, since I've seen Gloria Reuben, since her days as a regular on NBC's ER. But that doesn't mean she hasn't been hard at work.
She was a regular on the TNT legal drama Raising The Bar, though the show only lasted one season.
Aside from that, she's been a recurring character on Law and Order: SVU for the last nine seasons, playing an assistant D.A. (Must have missed the episodes she was on)
And yesterday, I actually found out by accident that she's also been playing the role of Tom Selleck's girlfriend on the Jesse Stone series of CBS TV detective movies; the latest, Jesse Stone: Benefit of the Doubt, is being broadcast tomorrow (Sunday May 20th).
She will also be appearring in Steven Spielberg's big, blatant Oscar grab, bio-pic Lincoln, which is coming out later this year.
And if that wasn't enough, Reuben has now been cast to star along with Tina Fey and Paul Rudd in the new, college-set, romantic comedy Admission, which starts shooting soon for Focus Features.
In the film, Rueben will play "a cutthroat Princeton admissions officer who contends for the same college adminstations counselor job that Fey has."

Just one more reason to get Canadian/BBC tv HERE. Go to Netflix Streaming & take a

Gloria Ruben is excellent. I love how she had the gumption to take a break from acting to go on tour with Tina Turner! That just spoke volumes about her passion.
Just remember that she's Canadian and not American. She does not like to be called African-American. She's a proud Canadian, thank you very much.
Shanea | May 20, 2012 10:24 AM
I loved her on ER. Glad to see she is getting work.
Melissa | May 20, 2012 2:47 AM
Thanks for the info Sergio! She is a very recognizable actress and was great on ER. Which was a great 90s show overall.
LeonRaymond | May 19, 2012 7:27 PM
FYI for actresses
So Many people think, Oh yeah she's good but, to be cast large top shelf projects there must be a question mark, WRONG ! 89% to 92% of it is attitude. This means she is very good on the set, takes direction well and is courteous at all times when working. I have been on major projects and if an actor or actress has a very bad attitude, then the producers have to hesitate, think for a moment, pause , and if they have to do that, they usually select some else real quick. There are a lot of actresses who have marginal talent but will get the job because of their great attitude, great example is Eve the Rapper, as marginal a talent as they come but her on set attitude and behavior is superb hence forth some one like Drew Barrymore will reach out to her for projects. Don't always assume that superb talent got them that gig. on the other side of the coin is Erica Badu, as horrible on the set as they come, no director wants to deal with that, just ask David Ducuvney's ex wife Tia Leone and there are others , like J-LO who I hear is a complete monster on the set. Check out the actresses Johnnie Mae from Boardwalk Empire, as nice and professional and encouraging as any could be, all ways there to give you the shirt off her back. So Gloria Rubin I hear is a darling on the set. !!!!

List your top three short, mid, and long-term requests for the game

Torpedo/ Homing weapons range
Great Thread, as long as the Devs cn filter trough the gazillion suggestions/ requests!
So heres my one suggestion/request that i have in mind:
Short to Mid Term
Increased Torpedo/ Homing weapons range to 15 maybe 20.
Why? Gives the game more tactic choices, e.g. you can soften up ur enemy from far away, or in teams one player has a "long range weapon" vessel that supports from far away.
I guess there have been others who suggested that before, so i support that, it would give the game more deepnes.
Short to Midterm, since it has to be a lot of programing to actually implement it on the A.I. on the npcs, weapon stats etc.
P.S. Is there a thred where the devs actually write ehat they consider to implement into the game?

More than 35,000 sign letter to Obama denouncing decision on Plan B
NARAL Pro-Choice America, a national reproductive rights group, announced today that it sent a letter to President Obama denouncing a federal agency's recent decision to overrule an FDA request to expand access to Plan B, or the morning after pill, to young women under the age of 17. The letter contained more than 35,000 signatures.
Since Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius announced her decision, reproductive health advocates and policy-makers have expressed disappointment with the decision and claim it was based on political calculations, and not on scientific research.
According to the group's press release:
Nancy Keenan, president of NARAL Pro-Choice America, today sent a letter signed by 35,194 Americans to President Obama opposing the administration's recent decision to overrule a recommendation from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to follow medical experts' recommendations to remove a restriction on the Plan B® emergency contraceptive.

River: Living the beautiful life in Connecticut
December 17, 2008-- Casual Living,
Proprietors Joe Marini and John Simoudis celebrate the art of living at River, in the small historic village of Essex, Connecticut. They also celebrate beautiful objects and the way those objects are altered by the outside world.
As the owners explained in a recent press release, "We like anything that has a useful function and only grows more attractive with age," such as the store's linen sheets that "grow softer and more supple with time" and the rustic finishes and aged patinas of the decorative and personal accessories that fill the shop and garden courtyard.
This past summer, River moved to a new location on Main Street, across from the town green and the Connecticut River. The building was built in 1852 and spent its earlier years as a post office. "It's a charming little building — freestanding, nothing above or attached, very historic, original paneling," Simoudis said. "We cleaned it up, did some renovating, painting, put in a new floor and a garden in back."
The larger space has opened up room for more merchandise, including an expansion into garden decor, and provides a bigger canvas for the owners' design and art work – Marini's floral arrangements and Simoudis' photography. Their early careers as stylists is evidenced by attractive displays incorporating florals, accents, containers, antiques and tabletop. Mixed in are soft goods by names such as John Robshaw, Etro Home and Libeco linen, and special pieces from antique stores and estate sales.
"Closer to Christmas we do a lot of topiaries – myrtle and rosemary – that look really good inside the space. It's a look that mixes simplicity with texture," Simoudis said. "We've had customers walk in and tell us this looks like their ideal home."
He described the local customer base as "old world, old money, conservative – they won't go into a store and shop indiscriminately."
Many of River's decorative accessories, including the garden planters and statuary, are made by artisans. Only about 10% come from shopping at markets or tradeshows.
"We like that we carry things that can't be found just anywhere. We travel quite a bit so wherever we are, we try to find certain points of view," Simoudis said. "Our soaps are a good example. They're made for us in Massachusetts and I wrap and stamp them myself. You won't find these anywhere else and they literally sell out of the store."
The soaps are one of about a half dozen exclusives River offers in its online store, set up by Simoudis using an e-commerce site called Big Cartel. "Before we went to Big Cartel we did a big online store that was custom, and very expensive — not only the initial investment, but the time editorially," he said.
Big Cartel gives small shops (up to 100 products) a way to build and stock their own Internet store with e-commerce and inventory tracking capabilities for less than $20 per month. "For a store our size, it's the perfect way to take advantage of online retailing… and easily searchable through Google," Simoudis said. "I looked on their administration panel and saw where people have googled for 'linen aprons' and our store came up. With the bigger custom package we had to pay for that kind of search engine optimization."
Marini, who has worked as an event planner, caterer, food and floral stylist, also runs an event design business out of the shop. "We both used to be stylists in New York, working for magazines doing set design and tabletop," Simoudis said. "I used to do a lot for fashion and Joe did a lot for Martha Stewart and Gourmet, those types of publications."
Several years ago, a decision to buy a weekend home in the country morphed into "let's start a business," which they did in 2005.
"We've never really thought of it as retail," Simoudis said. "We don't approach this as 'we have a retail store what are we going to buy for it.' We approach it as a story — what are we going to show this year? What is going to sell? We agreed that since we didn't have a lot of experience or money, let's buy what we like so that if we fall flat on our face we'll have it for home."
The store is open six days a week until Dec. 31 when it reduces to four days a week and by appointment.
"In the dead of winter we'll close for 3-4 weeks to take a vacation… and go shopping," he said.

A couple in New Jersey recently exchanged vows at a local White Castle after winning a radio station contest. The fast food palace held special meaning for the couple, who had their date first date at the same White Caste six years earlier.
Yesterday, our Chief Creative Director took time out of his busy schedule to lead the 2nd in a series of "Presentation Training" sessions. Our assignment—prepare a 1 minute wedding toast (to the person of our choosing). Oh, and watch Al Pacino's heart-wrenching, tear jerking, want-to-shout-from-the-top-of-a-mountain (and perhaps join a professional football team) speech from Any Given Sunday. Needless to say, I laughed, I cried (yes, actually tears), I cheered. But what did we learn?
As we went around the conference table, each of us standing to give our speech, we began to discuss the mechanics of giving a compelling speech. By dissecting each person's "performance", it was easy to see what we were doing right (naturally), and those places where we might need to improve a little. Basically, be S.U.P.E.R:
- Speak slowly - if you think you're speaking too slowly, you're probably going at a normal pace (when we get nervous, we tend to speed up).
- Use Your Environment - You don't have to stand in one place! This will force your audience to pay attention and follow you (with their eyes) around the room.
- Prepare – Rehearse what you're going to say. And try to do it without note cards. Note Cards immediately let the audience know that you're unsure of what you're about to say—if you don't know, why should they care?
- Enjoy silence – A powerful speech speeds up and slows down. Putting pauses in between sentences (at appropriate moments, of course) can make for a dynamic speech.
- Relax – Be confident in yourself & let your body language be accessible. The audience doesn't know what you're about to say, so just breath and speak naturally.
Simple. Just be SUPER.

Wouldn't this be a great situation:
Offer up a trade of Laveranues Coles, 2010 3rd, and 6th round picks to the Denver Broncos for Brandon Marshall and they would accept it! They could counter back with an offer of Coles and our 2nd rounder for Marshall, that would be just fantastic! I would take either one of those deals anyday, Or just Coles and a conditional pick.
Then comes the draft in April and we end up with a great first round pick other than WR since we added Marshall, such as Gresham,Terrence Cody, Taylor Mays, Earl Thomas, Donovan Warren, Mike Iupati, etc. or a Dez Bryant, Eric Berry, Rico McCoy, or Joe Haden Falls to us. Then we could go with WR in the 2nd or 3rd (depends which we trade if any) and still pick up a great slot fast guy with Tate, Shipley, and Gilyard all projected going after the first round then we could go from kinda mediocre at WR to absolutely awesome!
As much as we all want Marshall we all pretty much know it wont happen, especially trading Coles and lower picks for him. Their is always that possibility that something great like this will happen or at least sign another good WR such as Antonio Bryant, Malcom Floyd etc...
But that is what is so great about the offseason we can all get our hopes up and say this is the year that we make huge moves in the offseason. Given our history with Brown we won't do to much trading or signing big name free agents that don't have injury problems, but like I said this could be the year.......Right?
I really hope that we can at least sign one of the deep threat free agent WR's and pick up a nice guy in the draft as well (Golden Tate would be awesome). Lets keep wishing guys, and maybe we might actually get one to come true.
Then we could change our helmets to the inverted stripes and start a new era.....
P.S. The Jets are the luckiest team ever. We missed 2 field goals, Chargers missed 3, will Colts let the game come down to field goals? I hope not, I hope the Colts win then get beat by the Saints in the Super Bowl.
P.P.S. Best thing i've heard Marvin say in a long time (what I have in bold is what i need to see)
"People forget the 45-yard pass interference penalty (to Chad in the Wild Card game). Let's have three 45-yard pass interference penalties every game. At least attempts. Then I'll feel better. We've got to throw it down the field. We have to put fear in them. If you don't put fear in them, then you keep seeing some of the things you see (lack of offense). That's why we've gotten the long runs because we're running the ball against eight-man fronts. Once we block them up, get guys on guys, we got longer runs. And you saw it happen throughout the season."
Now I do believe that Marvin has a problem with how Brat was calling plays and him having only 2 or 3 different offensive formations (one with stacked line for runs and one with 3 WR's for passes). I have to agree with Marvin that I don't think we really put any fear in a defense all season with our lackluster offense, we have to put the fear of god into the defense. When you are able to throw the ball down the field, that will open up the running game alot more and have less 8 and 9 men in the box, which im sure Benson will absolutely love!!! If we can get our offense back to being able to throw, with this dynamic running game (one of the top 3 in the NFL), along with Zimmer's defense, we will be almost unstoppable. If Lewis can live up to these words and get Brat to throw the ball more down the field, I will have alot more faith going into next season! (Being that we are adding more players through free agency and draft, im about to lose it! im already excited)

GUNTER, TX -- Next to a curb is not where you want your car to be when a hail storm hits. Experts say hail damage costs consumers millions of dollars each year. It's why Michael Siciliano invented something called the Hail Protector.
"People are scratching their heads trying to figure it out because they've never seen it before," he said.
Siciliano invented it in the garage of his Gunter, Texas home.
The Hail Protector slips over your car just like a regular cover and cinches together to form a tight seal.
It plugs into a regular outlet, and with a remote control, inflates in about five minutes to form a protective bubble around your vehicle.
"All in, around 300,000 vehicles were damaged just in 2011, and at an average cost of $3,118 to be specific, and it totals to more than $1 billion in losses," he said.
Siciliano says he's put the product to the test to try to prove it works.
He recorded home video that he says shows how it holds ups against chunks of ice, softballs, tennis balls and 3-pound cantaloupes that were dropped from the top of the Denison fire training tower.
Siciliano says he was inspired to invent the product while watching his two daughters play on an inflatable slide four years ago.
"So I just connected the dots and had that eureka moment!" he said.
Siciliano says he's also developed an alert system app to let people know when a hail storm is about to hit. He hopes drivers will spring for the $300 product that he says could protect you from thousands of dollars in damage.The product is not available for sale just yet. Siciliano and his wife say they're working with manufacturers and investors to bring it to retailers.

was a contributing factor to the closing of , according to Charles Ifergan, the property's landlord.
According to Ifergan, Woodfire partner Andelo Cardaras saw business slipping at the restaurant specializing in barbequing chicken and ribs over a wood fire. The decline was exasperated by last summer's construction.
Ifergan was sympathetic to Cardaras's plight but would only go so far to help the Deerfield institution survive.
"He said the Lake Cook Road construction was hurting his business," Ifergan said. "He asked for lease concessions that were just unreasonable."
Most construction on Lake Cook Road was because of how it damaged local businesses.
Though a sign on the door reads, "Closed for remodeling, reopening soon," the business is no longer in operation, according to Deerfield Code Enforcement Supervisor Clint Case. The closing was further confirmed by Ifergan.
Case received a call from the Deerfield Bannockburn Fire Protection District fire marshal Thursday informing him equipment was being disconnected from the building. The removal triggered an automatic signal to the fire department.
"I said I would go down there and check it out," Case said. "When I got there they were removing the equipment."

Asymmetric molecules with non-superimposable mirror images serve as important building blocks in synthetic organic chemistry and can be produced using silacycle reagents. This technology describes allylic silacycle reagents that can selectively add carbon substituents called allyls to one side of an aldehyde molecule to produce asymmetric allylic alcohols. These reagents are also capable of asymmetric allyl addition to other organic compounds such as aldols and hydrazines.
Compared to other reagents for asymmetric allyl addition, silacycle reagents are less expensive to prepare, more stable and less toxic. Therefore, silacycle reagents can be prepared and stored in advance of performing reactions. Silacycle starting reagents are also easily separated from their allylic products. Finally, silacycle reagents can be broadly used for asymmetric allyl additions to different functional groups.
The high yield and selectivity of silacycle reagents has been demonstrated with a range of different organic compound starting materials.

-- According to Trendrr.tv, WWE RAW scored 249,121 in social media activity last night. This was down 13% from last week, and was the lowest ranked show during the three-hour era. RAW ranked #2 on cable TV behind the Monday Night NFL game on ESPN.
-- The reason that RAW had timing issues last night is because the 20-minute opening segment of RAW involving C.M. Punk, Paul Heyman, Dolph Ziggler, Vickie Guerrero, Daniel Bryan and Kane went about seven minutes long. This is the reason Vince McMahon was upset and is also the reason a Justin Gabriel match was cut from the broadcast.
-- Here is the latest edition of WWE RAW "Backstage Fallout":

I love this chick. She is foul-mouthed, brutally honest and despite the fact that she constantly makes herself look like white trash her physical appearance sort of negates it all. Her body is SICK. She says the stupidest dumb girl things and is not at all lady-like. AT ALL.
But I can't tear my eyes off her 2o mile long legs and model body every time she is on screen. She talks like a sailor with no filter what so ever but most of the older women on the show want to protect her like she is their daughter. That's kind of how I feel about her. They way she stands and her body language are very proper and demure..even while she is talking about banging every man in LA and kissing girls.
I don't know if this latest thing is an attempt on her part to get a pay raise, or if maybe her dumb girl filter was turned off again.
Troublemaker Brandi Glanville just dished on one of Bravo's biggest secrets. The "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star casually opened up to Howard Stern about how much the women are paid on the hit reality series.
"For the first season I worked for 18 grand so it wasn't a lot," she said. But Glanville was only a part-time cast member her first season on the show, and she noted the other women make a lot more.
"The other girls are a year ahead of me and they're making $250 [thousand]," she said. Glanville said now that she is a full-time "Housewife" on the series she still isn't making quite as much as her fellow cast members. "I want what they're getting, because I work hard, " she said.
At one point while talking to Stern, Glanville acknowledged that she was not supposed to leak salary information, but she didn't seem too concerned about it. "I'm not supposed to tell anyone this, but I'm just telling you."

Fury as Kidlington high street's rising bollard is delayed yet again
6:00am Wednesday 9th July 2014 in News By Luke Sproule, Reporter covering Rose Hill, Iffley and Littlemore. Please call me on (01865) 425422
A COMMUNITY is said to be "absolutely furious" at the latest setback of the installation of a rising bollard in a village high street.
There were hopes that work on the bollard, in Kidlington High Street, would start on Monday – more than two years after the shopping street was pedestrianised.
But Cherwell District Council was unable to start work this week as Oxfordshire County Council still had not signed off the plans.
Yesterday District council spokesman Tony Ecclestone confirmed that Oxfordshire County Council as highways authroity had still not given them the go-ahead.
Kidlington Parish Council chairman David Betts said he was extremely frustrated by the lack of progress.
He said: "The parish council is absolutely furious that nobody has taken hold of this issue and just got on with it.
"I haven't the foggiest idea when it will be completed. We were told May 7 and then July 7 and now I don't know what is going on.
"I have always expected Cherwell District Council to deliver and they have failed to do so."
It was in June that Cherwell District Council told the Oxford Mail it was awaiting this approval from the county council.
This came after the fire service said they were happy with changes to the bollard, which would allow them easier access to the street.
Martin Crabtree, spokesman for Oxfordshire County Council, said: "We have already been in contact with the district council's consultants to discuss this matter and they understand that we will carry out the necessary audit in the next few weeks as resources and work on other priorities allow."
The bollard would rise to limit access to the High Street between 10am and 4.30pm, but residents and businesses would be able to gain access using a swipe card.
Robert Windle, owner of Robert's Discount in the High Street, said the delay was having a negative effect on disabled and elderly people in the village.
He said: "It is making everybody so frustrated.
"There are old age pensioners and disabled people who make an effort to park around the corner away from the High Street and then they come into the High Street and find cars parked there.
"It's got to the stage now where people are deliberately walking down the middle of the street to annoy motorists.
"The idea was to create a pedestrianised area where people could walk around and enjoy the sunshine and cafes and it would create a better shopping experience but that hasn't happened."
Parish councillor Tim Emptage said the delays were having a negative effect on people in Kidlington.
He said: "You only need to look at the High Street and you will see cars parked there.
"The whole point of having the pedestrian area there is to clear an area for people to shop and socialise, which is impossible with cars going up and down the road.
"The whole project has been one of continual delays, meanwhile people in Kidlington are suffering as a result."
County councillor for South Kidlington Maurice Billington said: "I have spent months chasing both Cherwell District Council and the county council about this.
"It's ridiculous it's taken so long to get it sorted but what I'm hearing now is work will start by the end of this month.
"I wouldn't put my house on it, but I think it will get sorted."
Mr Billington said anyone with concerns about the project could get in touch with him directly or speak to either the district council or the county council.

Good it a waste of money as usual the Parish Council are useless. They would rather talk about Ballard then take tough decisions on housing. The Parish Council just get rid of them(i've lived in Kidlington over 25 years we've only charity shops and banks at the high street we do not need a pollard as every time I got the High Street it seems pretty dead)

Albany -WWE wrestling smacks down at the Albany Civic Center tonight.
Several wrestling fans lined up at the box office starting at noon today to buy their last minute tickets. Fans came from across the state and say more events like this will attract more people to Albany.
Wrestlers aren't the only ones smacking down in Albany. Fans are smacking down the big bucks to see them.
"Got two tickets, section 101, row MM, corner seats should be pretty good seats," said Coveleski Stewart.
Those tickets seem to be hottest around town, bringing in many out-of-towners, no matter how old.
"Who's your favorite wrestler? John Cena. And what do you want to happen today? I want him to sweat on me," said Briana Jenkins.
Briana Jenkins came from Ellaville with cousin Destiny Jenkins just to see the show.
Wrestling fan Paul Gaskins drove to Albany from more than 50 miles away and says there's only one thing that would keep him from coming to the show.
"If I didn't have the money I'd miss it, but I have the money," said Paul Gaskins.
Bringing money into town is what local leaders and business people want to see happen more often.
Albany Civic Center Director John Mazzola says wrestling draws a huge crowd that local businesses benefit from.
"Restaurants people are going to go out and have dinner before the show so hopefully they'll go out a little after the show before they go home, some people have driven from out of town, there may be some hotels, overnight stays as well," said Civic Center director John Mazzola.
Everyone has their own reasons for buying wrestling tickets.
"I just like it, the men mostly. I'm just telling the truth, I can't lie about it," said wrestling fan Cindy Myrick.
The live show is a good time for fans, and can be a big plus for nearby businesses.
WWE Wrestling Live featured big names like John Cena, Ric Flair, and HHH.

Mayor Catherine Samba-Panza elected to serve as Central African Republic Interim President .Samba-Panza 58, will lead the country to national elections.
Her appointment came from an unusual assortment of unelected rebel sympathizers, politicians, artists and others who have filled in as a substitute parliament for a nation that has suffered turmoil for the last months.
She defeated seven other candidates, including the sons of two former presidents and a man whose claim to hold degrees that no other Central Africans possess drew hoots of derision in the assembly chamber on Monday.
She was elected in a five-hour process involving two separate hand counts and the double reading-out of all 120-odd members of the assembly.
Among her first tasks is tamping down the animosity between Muslims and Christians that has resulted in well over 1,000 deaths in the last six weeks alone.
Ms. Samba-Panza, an insurance broker who led state-sponsored reconciliation efforts after a previous civil war, was said by supporters to be untainted by the nine-month reign of terror unleashed under the man she replaced, Michel Djotodia.
Mr. Djotodia, who installed himself as president after leading Muslim rebels in a coup in March last year , was forced to resign more than a week ago by regional and Western powers for allowing the sectarian bloodshed, which some in the United Nations warn could be the early stages of genocide.
There are daily revenge attacks between Christian militias, known as anti-balaka, and the remnants of the Muslim rebels, called Seleka, with most of the violence now coming from the Christians.

Sean Phillips has been performing and studying the art of magic for nearly a decade. He began his career performing in seedy bars and night clubs around the Twin Cities, and has since worked his way up to performing for Fortune 500 companies, major colleges and universities, exclusive charity galas, and high-end private parties.
He has won awards for his close-up magic from the International Brotherhood of Magicians, and has worked as an illusion designer and consultant for theater companies and fellow performers.
Sean specializes in working with clients who want unique entertainment. Rather than relying on fake boxes and hidden mirrors, he prefers minimalist illusions based around sleight-of-hand, psychological techniques, and showmanship.
Using a few simple props, such as a deck of cards or a borrowed coin, Sean creates illusions more astonishing than what most magicians accomplish with a truck-load of apparatus. He is equally comfortable performing close-up magic for a small handful of people as he is presenting large stage shows for an audience of hundreds.
When he is not traveling, Sean can be found performing at corporate events, colleges, private parties, and theaters around the state. Widely considered to be one of the most talented magicians in the Twin Cities, find out for yourself why Sean's public and private appearances have become a must-see phenomenon.

Priorities in Life
Hello Everyone,
It was fun while it lasted but everyone has to come to a time in their lives where they make career choices or move on to a different stage in life as they set out what their priorities are. I have concluded that my academic life and personal plans for the future are not currently compatible with pro-gaming, being a manager, or a coach. I spent a decent amount of time trying to help CombatEX as his manager but I no longer see time for that in my life. For those of you who are still his fans, I hope that you keep supporting him. For those of you who've moved on, I give my support to you and hope the best for you as well. I have decided to move on in life. I'll still login on occasion to game with my friends and do some 1s but other than that I probably won't be doing much gaming until the Christmas Holidays after Final Exams. Even if we're on the right track in life, if we don't keep moving, we'll get run over at some point. Take care everyone.


text: Wow, In the first hour alone I got 15 replies.... Most people suggested (correctly) setting the auto-reboot? flag to false, powering on and off. This boots to the ok> prompt. At this point I was able to run probe-scsi and find all my devices. Thanks to all who answered. Mark Gosselin NetScout Systems Original post: I'm trying to install a new version of Solaris on an Ultra Enterprise 2 that has an external SCSI CDROM. Logic would say run a probe-scsi and install from the device for the CD. However, getting to the ok> prompt seems to be a problem. Using Stop-A or halt causes the system to hang when running probe-scsi. What other way is there to get to that prompt?? _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers at sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagers

I bought a chubby stick in the color Curvy Candy. I applied a good amount to my lips and it lasted for around 4 hours. Curvy Candy is a sheer pink that still provides a small amount of color. It moisturizes well and becomes more pigmented as you work your way to the bottom. Overall a great product that I would highly recommend to others although it is slightly pricey!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
i have finished two of these. the first one i got was "super strawberry". a cute bubble gummy soft pink. loved the color. the next one i got was "oversized orange", a bright orange.
about the two colors: super strawberry was better than over sized orange. the pink looked the same when i swatched it on my hand and lips. the orange however was a little deceptive. it didn't looks bad on me, but somehow the color wasn't as good on my lips as i expected from the swatch.
the product itself is yummy. at first i didn't think it had a fragrance but it has a smell i can't quite figure out, its faint but i don't like it much.
its very moisturizing but obviously doesn't take care of chapped lips. at best it protects your lips from drying out further but doesn't repair existing chapped lips. but as for any two in one product, it doesn't a good job but not a mind-blowing one.
i know it seems like i think its an average product but i actually love it. the color is sheer, but with a couple of swipes you can build it up... its so perfect for day time use, so easy and non fussy. it lasts for a couple of hours but even when it fades it leaves a soft stain so i reapply only coz i like my lips to be moist with balm not for color.
i like the packaging but there is one problem i have had with both my sticks, towards the end when there is little product left it tends to break off... i hate to waste product like that...
but its such a great color lip balm that i am willing to over look it. i would buy all the shades if could, lol... but for now i am gonna pick up one new color and maybe a couple from the "intense" range they have launched.
I really love this product! I bought three of these: Super Strawberry, Heaping Hazelnut and Chunky Cherry. The Chubby Sticks make my lips feel soft and moisturized.
What I don't like about them is that they don't last very long, I have to reapply them often.
But overall I really like this product by Clinique, especially in the shade Super Strawberry.
This shade almost looks like my natural lip color on me, but then a little bit strengthened with just the right amout of shine.

I got this in the color Curvy Candy, a neutral natural looking pink that would look good on almost everybody. This is on the sheer side but gets more pigmented when you wear off the top layer. I wished these where a little more glossy and moisturizing because I found it a little drying on the lips. I actually like this better as a blush, it gave a nice dewy pink hue. You just put some on your cheeks and blend it out with your fingers, looks good and it's convenient for touch-ups during the day.
I fell in love with this cute lipbalm. <3 I bought it in shade mighty mimosa, shade number 13. It is very neutral pink. It looks on the lips very very natural and it gives the my lips but better effect. It has no frangrance, it contains shea butter and some more natural nourishing oils and substances. The lips look very healthy and juicy and the colours are just perfect.
It has very very wide range of shades and the staying power on the lips is as good as if it was a normal lipstick. If you look for more intensive colour, you should go for chubby stick intense.
I really like also the packaging. The stick is not as large as a lipstick so it is really easy to apply it even without mirror.
I think this is the best thing I have ever tried on my lips. I will repurchase it for sure and I want to try more shades. The price is not so bad. It is not cheap, but it is not very expensive. I think it worths the money I paid. They sell it for 18 euro in Slovakia. If i compare it with some high end lipsticks or lipbalms I used, I can say that it has the same or even better quality and it costs half of the price of some high end lipstick.
Doesn't last long, need to reapply often. Doesn't fade well and it made dry lips even worse. Won't buy again. Covergirls lipperfection jumbo gloss balm is just as bad.
Very pretty MLBB shades (fuller fig & bountiful blush) can swipe on w/o a mirror. Not sticky or drying. Lil too waxy for me, I need lip balm under it. Would not pay full price but when Clinique or sephora has a sale i would probably try more colors. I like the crayon and the fact that they last longer than revlon version and don't make my lips peel (but revlon has better colors)
I use these all the time, I love them! They are pretty moisturizing, but not SUPERBLY moisturizing like Clinique suggests. Color is pretty good and shows up well, not too bright but not too sheer either. The only thing I hate is that the color lasts an okay amount of time, but not too long. Overall, definitely get them!

I bought two of these immediately when they came out, in Curvy Candy and in Two Ton Tomato. These apply very nicely, I love the roll up colour, but these are not long lasting. They are also very sheer, so not very pigmented. I like these for those days where you just can't be bothered to apply lipstick, but I will definitely not be repurchasing these. The Revlon version of these is MUCH better for colour selection, longevity of wear and pigmentation. I'm shocked I am saying this because I generally hate drugstore makeup but I really believe the Revlon version of these chubby sticks is incredible in comparison. I really wanted to love these, but alas, at $20 a piece they are not worth it.

I have a bit of a thing against lipsticks as oversized pencils/crayons. I have no explanation why other than that I am a bit of a lipstick bullet purist! So I resisted the Chubby Sticks for a long time- purely because I could always find something that I fancied a bit more. I actually remember them from the first time around when they were not self sharpening and were not as significant a success. But with a few tweaks and a nifty marketing campaign they really took off with the relaunch and I could only resist for so long.
First colour I bought was-
*Mighty Mimosa. It's a very girly warm toned pink with gold shimmers through it. It's nice- it's sheer but definitely shows up on me and is a nice daywear shade for spring/summer.
I then received Whole Lotta Honey and Woppin Watermelon as gifts.
*Whole Lotta Honey is my favourite of the lot- it's a shimmer free, honey toned brown colour that goes on sheer but gives a polished nude result.
*Woppin Watermelon is my least favourite. It's a cool toned sheer pink. Again shimmerless. It has the least 'complexity' of the shades I own and is also probably the sheerest with the poorest colour payoff.
These are billed as moisturising lip products and whilst they don't dry my lips or feel uncomfortable on- I wouldn't describe them as hydrating. Just normal as far as lipsticks go. The formula itself feels soft and lightweight, more like a balm. A really good choice if you hate heavy products on the lips. Also probably a nice choice for school or occasions when less is more with your makeup. Lasting power is average- about two-three hours on me. Which is perfectly acceptable for a sheer lipstick.
I am still not crazy about the pencil thing- it is functional enough but a bit deceptive. You think you are getting loads of product but when you wind it up to the max it looks like very little. It is infact 3g which is a bit less than the average lipstick. I have also run them down pretty quickly.
Repurchase is shade dependent for me- I'd buy Whole Lotta Honey again for sure because I do love it, the others are so so.
All in all, they are nice but at that price point it is probably worth asking yourself if you would prefer a MAC (two quid cheaper, 3g) a NARS (two quid more expensive, 3.4g) or a couple of drugstore lipsticks. When you put it like that- I am not sure how often the Chubby Sticks win out over the competition.

There's a potentially significant week ahead in terms of Bergen County politics plus some interesting anti-human trafficking events.
Here are a few things I'll be watching for:
1. I'm told that Surrogate Michael Dressler is nearing a decision on whether or not he will run for County Executive this year. His decision could impact several other Democrats who are said to be mulling a run if Dressler opts out.
2. The State Attorney General's office will conduct a two-hour training session on Monday at 2 p.m. at the Hasbrouck Heights Hilton to help hotel workers recognize the tell-tale signs of human trafficking during the Super Bowl.
3. County officials will mark Korean-American Day with a ceremony at 4 p.m. Monday in the Freeholder Public Meeting room on the first floor of the Bergen County Administrative Building at One Bergen County Plaza in Hackensack.
The day marks the 111th anniversary of the arrival of 103 Korean immigrants in Hawaii, the first entry of Koreans into the U.S. territories.
4. The Freeholders hold their 4:30 p.m. work session on Wednesday followed by a 7:30 p.m. public meeting. No word yet on the agenda.
5. The New Jersey Coalition against Human Trafficking will host an event on Wednesday at 7 p.m. at Bergen PAC in Englewood.
The free program will include the New Jersey premier of "A Day in the Life" written and performed by teenagers based on survivor stories and an appearance by Courtney Wong, a singer/songwriter and anti-human trafficking activist. For more information, go to njhumantrafficking.org.
6. Assemblywoman Holly Schepisi, R-River Vale will be our guest for a Record Talk Radio broadcast scheduled for 10 a.m. Thursday. (NOTE: this broadcast has been rescheduled to 10 a.m. Wednesday, Jan. 22.
We'll talk about the controversy over the George Washington Bridge/traffic jam scandal plus bills she sponsored during the last legislative session.
7. Democrats gather at the Rockleigh County Club Thursday night for a "victory" celebration
The Democrats held onto all of their legislative seats in November while adding one freeholder despite running against a Republican ticket topped by Gov. Chris Christie, who had a landslide victory in Bergen County.
8. Join us for a special edition of Record Talk Radio Friday with a roundtable discussion among reporters who have been covering the controversy over the apparently politically-motivated closure of two lanes of the George Washington Bridge for four days in September.
Watch for more details on the broadcast later this week.
9. Superior Court Judge Menelaos Toskos is expected to rule by Friday on a request for an injuction in the lawsuit County Executive Kathleen Donovan filed against the freeholders last year.
Donovan has asked the judge to stay implementation of a merger of the County Police into the Sheriff's Office that the freeholders approved in October. She also seeks to block the freeholders' attempt to re-write the county administrative code, pending the outcome of her lawsuit.

Ron Paul when Martin Luther King Day was enacted (from a newsletter bearing his name):
"We are supposed to honor this 'Christian minister' and lying socialist satyr with a holiday that puts him on a par with George Washington?"
"What an infamy Ronald Reagan approved it! We can thank him for our annual Hate Whitey Day."
And don't give me this crap that he didn't write it and it had to be someone else. It was in his newsletter called the Ron Paul Political (or Survival) Report. That means he signed off on it. Him saying he didn't makes him a liar. By the way Martin Luther King didn't have his top people attending white supremacist meetings like Paul's Legislative Director, nor did he receive money from white supremacists as Paul did when he got money from Stormfront's webmaster. And King also did find such widespread support from white supremacists either.
