What's the appropriate way to do the following -
- There's trunk. I create a branch
- I work on branch. Make changes.
- Meanwhile trunk has changed, so I keep doing
cd branch; svn merge $SVNTRUNKin my branch every once a while.
- Finally, I do
cd trunk; svn merge --reintegrate $SVNBRANCH. All this I just do following the SVN book.
What's the right way to do something on my branch now? Should I just delete my branch, and create a new branch from the trunk? If I do a
cd trunk; svn merge $SVNTRUNK I get a whole bunch of "local add, incoming add upon merge" messages ...
What are those? How do I resolve this?
I assumed SVN would cleanly realize that all those files listed as "local add, incoming add upon merge" are the same as the ones I already have in my branch .. but apparently not.

Tips for buying cold weather clothing
1. Look for military surplus that is actually NATO issued and not some knock-off. Surplus items sell at a discount which can save you a considerable amount of money.
2. If a zipper breaks, you're screwed in the field unless you have extra zippers on hand to stitch back in place. Buy extra zippers or the correct length now to replace any that are failing or did fail last season. Try to find buttons because usually they're easier to sew back on and seldom break outright. Check for missing buttons from last season, and consider sewing them with stronger thread and making them more secure.
3. Wear a cap. Most heat loss is through the head. Never go anywhere in your vehicle without a warm cap.
4. Consider buying a balaclava. It can be rolled up like a cap or cover the neck. Either way really helps you versus a standard cap. Try riding a bike in the winter without one. Bet you end up buying one. See: [

5. Buy gloves that are appropriate for the task. If you need to be dextrous then obviously you need a thinner pair. Buy some well insulated ones too. If you're out in lots of snow, then they should repel melting snow. If you're working in very wet snow, they make special rubberized ones for that purpose.
6. Consider buying ski pants if in the snow a lot, and having to kneel down. There's nothing worse than getting your pant wet and then icy and stiff. Every time I go skiing, I see a lot of people suffering from this.
7. Insulated coveralls are really great if you're working outside. It works on the layer concept. You can peal them off if you get too hot. That's important when going in and outside a lot and creating sweat. This prevents chills.
8. The same is true for insulated removable liners to jackets.
9. A thin polar fleece jacket is easy to put on, cheap, and sorta simple to remove. It's not ideal versus a jacket since it exposes flesh as you take it off sometimes. It's far less expensive than a good jacket or coat.
10. Thermal underwear of either silk or otherwise works remarkably well. Silk is a lot less heavier. Wool is better if there's any chance of getting wet. Mostly the latter is vital if working around frozen lakes and the ice breaks or the ice is thawing and you are doing river crossings.
11. Buy a pair of insulated full length boots with good treads. Ankle support is vital for long distances. Obviously if your region has snow then shorter boots are ridiculous. Sometimes people double their socks because their boots are not insulated. This can cause a lot of rubbing on long treks and is not recommended.
12. If buying camouflaged gear, then pick the appropriate pattern based upon the season. Wearing jungle camo in the dead of winter makes you stick out like a sore thumb. Wearing bright colors when crossing through deciduous and evergreen forest in Winter makes you stick out like a sore thumb too.
Most people don't buy the right kind of foul weather gear for Winter use. The reason is they're not used to actually being in it, much less working in it. Imagine being out in it a lot especially if ill prepared for a SHTF scenario.

Is Falcao no longer coming? The Mirror say Chelsea are close to £12m David Villa buy
The Mirror's back page on Boxing Day is full of transfer gossip.
A week before the January transfer window opens, Chelsea are now being linked to a £12m bid for Barcelona's David Villa.
According to the Mirror, under the headline 'Rafa swoops to grap £12m Barca's Villa':
Chelsea are ready to gazump Arsenal and Liverpool to snatch Barcelona's David Villa. The World Cup winner has become a Nou Camp outsider after his leg break last winter, making just a handful of first team starts for the Liga leaders.
This is far from the first time Villa has been linked with a Premier League move.
Last Tuesday Spanish paper AS splashed with the transfer story that Arsenal were close to snapping up Villa, while the general narrative around Villa seems to be the Spanish all-time leading scorer no longer fit into the plans of Barcelona coach Tito Vilanova and the player is reportedly keen to try the delights of the Premier League.
A couple of points on the Mirror's transfer story.
By linking Chelsea to David Villa, one begins to question whether Radamel Falcao will ever arrive at Stamford Bridge.
Falcao, arguably the best centre-forward in world football, is set to leave Atletico Madrid sooner rather than later, but it now seems that the Blues consider £12m for Villa to be far more attractive investment than the reported £50m fee which the Colombian commands.
Moreover, however you cut it, it now seems that David Villa's days in Catalonia are up. The constant chatter linking the forward with a move to England feels too loud to be complete garbage, and surely Villa would be a major assest to Chelsea or which Premier League club can snatch him up.
In 12 appearances for Barcelona this season Villa has five goals.

Troy Davis Set To Be Executed on Wednesday After Georgia Pardons Board Denies Clemency
Shortly before our broadcast ended, the Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles announced it rejected clemency for Troy Anthony Davis. The Board has the sole authority to stay the execution under Georgia state law. Davis is now set to be executed by lethal injection on Wednesday at 7:00 p.m. Davis was convicted for the 1989 killing of an off-duty white police officer. Since then, seven of the nine non-police witnesses have recanted their testimony, and there is no physical evidence tying Davis to the crime scene. Amnesty International, the NAACP and numerous other groups have called for clemency. Former FBI Director William Sessions is among those calling for a closer examination of whether Davis is guilty, joining a list that includes Pope Benedict XVI, former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and the Archbishop Desmond Tutu. We speak with the Rev. Jesse Jackson, civil rights leader and founder of the Rainbow/PUSH Coalition, who has been a vocal supporter of the campaign to spare Davis's life. We also speak with Mary Schmid Mergler, senior counsel for the Constitution Project's Criminal Justice Program, who assembled statements from a former Georgia Supreme Court justice, congressman and prosecutors, as well as a former Texas governor, who urged the Supreme Court, and now the Georgia pardons board, to halt Davis's execution and commute his death sentence to life in prison.

Rev. Jesse Jackson on Taxing the Rich, Occupy Wall Street Protest and Palestinian Statehood
On Monday, President Obama proposed a new tax on millionaires as part of his plan to close the deficit and responded to opponents who have labeled his plan "class warfare." Republicans have vowed to defeat the tax, even as one in six Americans live in poverty. We speak with Rev. Jesse Jackson about how Obama's plan also includes cuts to Medicare and Medicaid. "I would think, before we end up at that conclusion, we must go after where the money—where is the money?" Jackson says. "The money is in the four wars. The money is in corporations not paying their share of taxes. The money is in the banks." Jackson says he supports the "Occupy Wall Street" protests underway now in New York City. He also discusses the pending call by Ralph Nader for a primary challenger to Obama and the pending United Nations vote on Palestinian statehood. [includes rush transcript]
"Don't Ask, Don't Tell" Ban on Gay and Lesbians in the U.S. Military is Lifted
"Don't Ask, Don't Tell" is no more. The military's longstanding ban on openly gay and lesbian servicemembers officially expired at 12:01 a.m. EDT earlier today. Congress passed a repeal of the ban last year, but President Obama had deferred its implementation until military leaders gave their approval. The Pentagon now says it will no longer enforce the ban, meaning gays and lesbians can openly serve. We play excerpts from voices we have had on the program over the years speaking out against "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," including Lt. Dan Choi, a West Point graduate and Iraq War veteran who was eventually discharged under the ban. We also speak with Aaron Belkin, author of "How We Won: Progressive Lessons from the Repeal of 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell.'" "The big difference for the troops on the ground," says Belkin of the victory's impact for military personnel, "is just that they can utter the words 'I am gay' without being fired." [includes rush transcript]
Court Ruling Backs Ecuadorian Effort to Hold Chevron Accountable for Amazon Pollution
A U.S. appeals court has ruled oil giant Chevron cannot escape an $18 billion fine for massive pollution of the Amazon rain forest. Amazonian residents won the damages in an Ecuadorian court earlier this year, and Chevron says it will appeal the decision. It is the latest development in a complex, 18-year legal battle that has gone before judges not just in Ecuador and the United States, but also The Hague. We speak with Atossa Soltani, executive director of Amazon Watch, which has worked closely with the Amazon residents suing Chevron. Atossa Soltani is in New York City this week to draw attention to environmental causes in the Amazon in conjunction with two major gatherings, the Clinton Global Initiative and the United Nations General Assembly.

Storm loses third straight
Storm lacks timely defense, offensive execution in loss to Indiana Fever.
Special to The Seattle Times
INDIANAPOLIS — Seattle's defensive scoring average looks good on paper the past two games, while its offensive numbers have been poor.
Both aspects failed the Storm on Sunday in a 71-63 loss at defending champion Indiana in front of 6,355 at Banker's Life Fieldhouse.
With the score tied after three quarters, the Fever (3-7) shot 70 percent from the field in the fourth quarter, opening with a 10-2 run to take a 60-52 lead.
"We can't be disappointed with our defense," said Seattle guard Tanisha Wright. "We can evaluate it down the stretch. Overall we've been good, but down the stretch when you really need to make a stop and get a stop, we've kind of let down."
The Storm cut the deficit to 65-61 with two minutes remaining. Indiana's Tamika Catchings answered with a drive to the basket. On the next possession Catchings broke down Seattle's defense and found Jasmine Hassell for a layup, putting the Fever ahead 69-61 with 1:25 left.
"We've had people like (New York's Cappie) Pondexter hurt us down the stretch (in a loss Friday)," Seattle coach Brian Agler said. "(On Sunday) it was Tamika Catchings. It's two of the elite players in the game taking over and getting one-on-one situations."
Indiana outrebounded the Storm 34-22, grabbing 12 offensive rebounds, with 10 of those in the second half.
"Tonight we compounded that by having 20 turnovers," Agler said. "We've been pretty good in the turnover situation, but over the last couple of games we've given up too many second shots."
Seattle (4-6) is averaging 65 points during its three-game losing streak. It follows a three-game winning streak in which the Storm averaged 88.3 points.
"That comes down to getting in the gym and making shots because a lot of our opportunities come down to making shots," said Seattle guard Temeka Johnson, who scored eight points. "Not a lot of them were wide open, but we're all basketball players and are able to make a lot of these shots we're missing."
Indiana nearly blew the game open early, taking a 17-4 lead midway through the first quarter, hitting three-pointers on three consecutive possessions, including a four-point play by Briann January.
Seattle answered with a 12-0 run over the first and second quarters, forcing four turnovers.
"I think it started with us defensively and we weren't letting them be as comfortable as they were when they went on that 17-4 run," Johnson said. "I think we picked it up a notch defensively and we started to execute offensively, taking our time and seeing what it is they were giving us."
Shekinna Stricklen led Seattle with 11 points, while Camille Little added 10. Wright and Tina Thompson added nine points apiece.
Catchings led all scorers with 18 points, while Jessica Breland added 10 points and 10 rebounds for the Fever. Shavonte Zellous scored 14 and Karima Christmas added 12.
The Storm forced 22 Indiana turnovers but turned those into just 13 points. Seattle finished with 11 assists, after not having one in the first quarter and just five during Friday's 67-62 loss to New York.

All the hot red carpet looks from the 85th annual Academy Awards at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.
Hollywood - Searching for Sugar Man, about a singer whose musical star faded without a trace until he was rediscovered in South Africa, won the best documentary feature Oscar on Sunday.
The film tells the story of Sixto Rodriguez, who made two albums in the early 1970s but then quit music - and who knows nothing about his fame on another continent.
The documentary was made by first-time director Malik Bendjelloul, who first discovered Rodriguez while travelling for six months in Africa in 2006, and was fascinated by his story.
2013 Oscars: The list of winners
The award was accepted by Bendjelloul and producer Simon Chinn, who explained why Rodriguez did not attend the Oscars show at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.
"He didn't want to take any of the credit himself. That just about says everything about that man and his story that you want to know," Chinn said.
"He doesn't see it as his film. He's genuinely a humble man," he added.
Bendjelloul said he learned that Rodriguez was born in Detroit, Michigan, in 1942, but his musical career ended almost before it began, while all other stars around him were making musical history in Motown.
Bizarre stories
But while his records failed to take off at home, a bootleg copy somehow made it to South Africa, where it struck a chord with progressive young whites, exasperated with the apartheid system.
His success there was such that, given the fact that the artist himself was not around, bizarre stories began to emerge about him, including one that claimed that he had committed suicide by setting himself alight on stage.
The Oscar-winning documentary has brought Rodriguez a new audience.
"At this very moment he has three albums on the Billboard charts which is unprecedented," Bendjelloul said. "As we speak he's touring in South Africa and playing for 50 000 people."
* The 2013 Oscars will be aired on M-Net on Monday at 20:30

In case you missed this story amid the hustle and bustle of last week's news, Apple has scheduled a keynote event for Wednesday, October 20 at 10:00 AM Pacific. According to the Mac rumor mill, that 11.6" MacBook Air we've been hearing about is sure to make an appearance.
AppleInsider first wrote about the event last Wednesday, but it posted another story on Friday afternoon with unofficial confirmation of the 11.6" MacBook Air's imminent arrival. Quoting "several independent sources," the site says the new Air has been in production for "at least a week now." The machine has reportedly been redesigned from scratch with a more "wedge-shaped" chassis and solid-state storage as standard. AppleInsider also talks of a "more attractive entry-level price point"—that would be long overdue, since the current Air is just a wee bit overpriced at $1,499.
Apple might have other goodies up its sleeve on Wednesday. The official invite for the event shows a metallic Apple logo rotated slightly to reveal what looks like a lion. Considering Apple's propensity for naming OS X releases after wild cats, and the title of the event—"Back to the Mac"—AppleInsider and other sources are expecting to catch a glimpse of Mac OS X 10.7.

Title: Corrells false dragonhead
Answered by: Damon Waitt
QUESTION:I live in South Louisiana. I saw in a recent local paper a picture of Correll's false dragonhead and the small caption under the picture states that this flower is rare and hard to find. I took some pictures of a flower in my yard that look very similar to the Correll false dragonhead. At first I thought the previous owner may have planted this particular flower. When I called her to inquire about it, she states she did not purchase nor plant this particular flower. I guess I am just wondering if this flower is hard to find and how can I get it identified. Thank You.
ANSWER:According to the Center for Plant Conservation, Physostegia correllii (Correll's false dragonhead) once occurred in several areas in Texas, Louisiana, and Mexico but is now restricted to two or three sites in Louisiana and one possible site in Travis County, Texas. So....it should be hard to find. For help with identification, contact the primary custodian for this plant in the CPC National Collection of Endangered Plants at the Mercer Arboretum and Botanic Garden.

Sheffield wants lifetime contract
Gary Sheffield wants to stay in Los Angeles.

Let's see. Sheffield is 32, with two more years to go on his current deal. Even though he is putting up some pretty good numbers, he is pretty much at the end of his long-contract period, and will be starting in on the year-to-year deals, or maybe 2-yrs.2. Robert Dudek Posted: September 18, 2001 at 03:01 PM (#72632)
Doesn't hurt to ask, though. I'd like a lifetime contract too.
If I were the Dodgers, I'd like have Sheff signed until the age of 38 or so. If they are fairly confident that he won't bolt, they can just offer 1 or 2 year contract extensions every time he enters his final year.3. Robert Dudek Posted: September 18, 2001 at 03:52 PM (#72634)
He wants to stay in LA. He is one of the very best hitters of his generation (he has played in many pitcher's parks). It's very likely that he'll still be a championship quality player at age 38, so in my book he's a good risk.
My guess is that he makes it. He needs to have a reasonably long career, though.4. Robert Dudek Posted: September 18, 2001 at 08:08 PM (#72636)
He hasn't had 14 full years.5. Robert Dudek Posted: September 18, 2001 at 10:03 PM (#72638)
14 years is not a long career for an outfielder.
Okay... we are playing word games here, so I will amend my comments to a "long career" - 2300+ games played.6. Big Ed Posted: September 19, 2001 at 07:29 PM (#72640)
And it is also not likely that he will hit HRs at his current pace, as he is past his peak and his rate ought to slow down quite a bit.

Sometimes you can truly strike gold with Amazon's "Gold Box Deal of the Day" but you have to strike fast because they only last one day.
The today-only deal for October 2 is a great one if you're in the market for in-ceiling speakers, as Amazon's Gold Box deal brings a great discount on the MartinLogan Helos20 In-Ceiling Speaker with Paintable Frame and Grille.
The speaker ordinarily goes for $399 a pop but today has been discounted to just $149.
As an architectural speaker, it's not the electrostatic design that MartinLogan has become renowned for, but it should work just fine in your multiroom audio setup.
The speaker can be configured in a stereo capable array, and features twin 3/4-inch neodymium soft-dome tweeters and an aluminum woofer. It can handle 100 watts as a mono speaker, or 50 watts x2 as stereo.Follow Electronic House on Facebook and Twitter.
The new smart home system allows you to monitor and control your yard's watering schedule.

The original 2 girls 1 cup video is a copy of the trailer for "Hungry Bitches", a pornographic fetish film produced by MFX-Media. The video originated from a Brazilian, Marco Fiorito, who describes himself as a "compulsive fetishist". Fiorito originally produced foot fetish videos but soon moved on to coprophagia. The clip features Karla and Latifa, two deeply in love women defecating into a cup, taking turns consuming the excrement, and vomiting into each other's mouths. Part of what has facilitated Two Girls One Cups spread are the reactions it causes.

ALEX BRUMMER: More awe than shock at European Central Bank's attempts to head off deflation by cutting key rate
It is almost three years ago that George Osborne called on Europe to come up with a 'big bazooka' to solve the crisis in euroland.
Nearly three years on and the European Central Bank, the only trusted euroland institution, is still using a pea-shooter.
At first blush the president of the ECB, Mario Draghi, looks to have gone further than anyone expected in seeking to head off the deflation threat and the unemployment disaster in the eurozone.
Rate cut: The ECB cut its main interest rate from 0.25 per cent to a new record low of 0.15 per cent
The ECB has cut one of its key rates to the bone at 0.15 per cent from 0.25 per cent and has gone into negative territory by reducing its deposit rate to minus 0.1 per cent.
This is effectively a tax on financial institutions leaving cash on deposit with the central bank regarded as the safest place.
It is intended to encourage banks to place deposits back in the interbank market where the returns are much higher.
It looks to be a dramatic gesture.
But given the continuing uncertainty around many of Europe's banks that have still not been subjected to rigorous stress testing and have a long way to go to meet robust new capital requirements, it is not entirely clear that this is enough.
The second element of the package, the new targeted long-term financing operations, looks more like a demonstration of the ECB's ability to dream up meaningless acronyms than a real policy tool.
It has the look of Britain's Funding for Lending Scheme, on which it is based, and remarkably the eurocrats looked to London, the very epicentre of anti-euro sentiment, for advice.
As we know from the UK's experience, the FLS was wonderfully useful in boosting the lending to the housing market but ineffectual, so far, in persuading banks to lend to small and medium-sized enterprises.
Given that so many European banks are still in the emergency ward, and business investment and confidence are often the last, rather than the first, sectors of the economy to lead out of recession, it is not entirely clear that it is going to produce the yearned for breakthrough.
Potentially, the third element of Draghi's package could be the most significant.
There can be little doubt that quantitative easing – the purchase of government bonds by the Federal Reserve in Washington and the Bank of England – has contributed enormously to repairing balance sheets, restoring growth, reducing unemployment and keeping deflation at bay.
But what the ECB is promising in this area is very limited in scope, with some estimates putting it at 2 per cent of total output of the region against 20 per cent in the US and Britain.
Understandably, Draghi has huge problems in delivering QE.
The ECB has to make judgments as to which sovereign bonds it will buy – it would be a fiction to pretend that a Greek and German bond have the same value – and needs to contend with conservative forces on the ECB board.
The ECB claims that its decision to go ahead with the reforms was unanimous. Of course we cannot really tell until the Frankfurt bank follows up its promise to publish full minutes of its meetings.
Moreover, if the ECB were to engage in full-scale bond buying, it would almost certainly require full buy-in from the German Chancellor Angela Merkel as well as a ruling from the country's constitutional court.
In parts of the eurozone, unemployment is dire and economic desolation widespread, as the result from the recent elections to the European Parliament, with the revenge of the extreme parties, demonstrated.
The ECB never misses the opportunity to miss an opportunity.
Ghost story
Old retail bosses love to haunt their successors.
At last year's Tesco annual general meeting, Lord MacLaurin turned his anger on Sir Terry Leahy saying how 'sad' he was about the legacy left to Phil Clarke.
At the Wm Morrison AGM it was Sir Ken Morrison, who's family still controls 9 per cent of the equity, who laid into the current management, at times resorting to some industrial language.
Morrison is right to point out that the group has made some terrible mistakes. The worst seems to have been leaving Dalton Philips, who has presided over the decline, in charge.
Instead it is chairman Sir Ian Gibson, one of the nation's more respected business figures, who has fallen on his sword.
I thought it was the chairman's job to sack the chief executive, not the other way around.
Autumn sales
Is reality finally returning to the online sector?
Fashion group ASOS saw nearly one-third lopped off its shares after a profits warning. How fortunate for boss Nick Robertson that he made a £48.3million share sale last October.
If he had made it yesterday he would have been £16million poorer.

It can hold any 18-pin DIP PIC microcontroller which is clocked at 16MHz with ceramic resonator. There is also a mandatory ICSP programming header and reset button. All microcontroller pins are aligned so they fit nicely in to breadboard. In many projects there are commonly buttons and LEDs used so in this module one user push button and single LED is already included that can be used for any purpose. Besides there is a dual tact switch that allows disconnecting button and LED if not needed....

There can be no let-up as Oxfordshire target top spot in Pool 3 when they host Dorset & Wilts in the County Championship Shield at Witney tomorrow (3).
That is the view of head coach Craig Burrows, whose side need a solitary bonus point to finish first and reach the semi-finals.
"The County Championship is all about momentum," said Burrows, whose team opened up with a 37-19 victory over Berkshire last weekend.
"To get just a point and lose would be mentally very difficult going into the semi-finals.
"That is not the way to approach it if we want to get to the final at Twickenham, which is the aim.
"Before that, Saturday is the big focus "We want to be positive and keep winning."
Oxfordshire make two changes to their starting line-up, with Oxford Harlequins fly half Zac Norris and Grove prop Martyn Walsh coming in.
Joe Bellinger (Grove) moves from centre to No 8, with Matt Clarke (Witney) shifting from No 10 to 12.
Jamie Burke (Witney) is unavailable, while fellow prop Pete Boulton (Oxford Harlequins) comes in on the bench.
Burrows added: "We have lots to build on for next week.
"Dorset & Wilts have been a bit of a bogey team for Oxfordshire for the last five years.
"It is going to be a really tough game and a totally different proposition to Berkshire.
"They are going to be strong out wide. Berkshire were strong up front."
Oxfordshire: J Mills (Banbury), G Nicholl (Grove), Day (Grove), Clarke (Witney), Clipsham (Grove), Norris (Oxford Harlequins), E Phillips (Banbury), Eckert (capt), Dixey, Walsh (all Grove), Brown, Purchase (both Oxford Harlequins), C Chilvers, Wells, Bellinger (all Grove), Reps: Boulton (Oxford Harlequins), Monks (Witney), Haire (Grove), C Phillips (Banbury), J Chilvers (Grove), Spencer (Bicester), Peel (Grove).

I bought a flat iron and an instyler I got both should I not be satisfied with the instyler. I tried instyler first. I regret buying the flat iron because I absolutely love my instyler I am Milato mixed African American n white. My hair due to perming for years is thin but instyler did fantastic job. I was so satisfied with it I volunteered to do my daughters hair---African American and she has extremely thick hair. Both she and I were so surprised over the fantastic job the instyler has done. I refuse to do my hair with anything else2 2 Reply

The InStyler is great on all kinds of hair. I was using the Chi (Cuban hair, very course and curly) and the Chi KILLED my hair so I purchased the InStyler 3 years ago and haven't looked back. Not only is it better for your hair, but my hair is done in less than 15 mins. Used to take me 45 mins with the Chi. Go for it, I'm sure you'll love it!1 1 Reply

So I just recently purchased the perfector hair fusion and I HATE IT!!!! It doesn't work like in the commercial. I have to run it threw my hair about six times for it to get straight and it still looks puffy, I thought maybe it's my hair, so I tried it on my cousins, sister and mom it still doesn't work. I also have the insyler and it works a million times better than the perfector. I'm going to call and ask for my money back. To me this tool doesn't work and it's not worth the 100.00 dollars it advertise for2 0 Reply

You guys seem to be talking about 2 different products here - the InStyler and the Perfecter Fusion Styler. They are not the same product!1 0 Reply
Ann Sep 02, 2013 Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey
I purchased the Perfecter, looked like it was an awesome hair tool. When it says not to use on 'wet' hair, ALSO don't use it on damp hair or if your hair/scalp is not COMPLETELY dry. Altho I came out of the shower and my hair was dry, apparently, maybe my scalp was damp from showering or getting 'hot flashes' in the midst of hair styling. But I blowed dry around the nick of my hair to make sure all was dry and when I began using the Perfecter at the back of my neck, the hair got all tangled up, couldn't get it out and both myself and my husband tried to gently get the hair out, had to eventually cut the hair off. Luckily, it was at the base of my neck. So, moving forward, I still use my regular curling iron and 'somewhat' use the Perfecter for the top/sides of my head. But I also found that since I have extremely thin/fine hair, my hair still seems to get tangled in the Perfecter. I have not found it to be as 'perfect' as the commercial looks. I beiieve there is a warranty and I will probably send it back. For me, the negatives 'out weigh' the positives. Hope others have better luck than I did since It really is an amazing commercial1 0 Reply

I am caucasian with chemically treated slightly wavy hair a bit longer than chin length...I bought the Instyler and though I had no issues with breakage etc. related to the Instlyer it was a HUGE crock of *** and a waste of money! The brushes around the rotating rod are too close together and it makes it so your hair doesn't really want to go between the brushes and since one side of the tool is kinda exposed it becomes very easy to burn your skin if you place it wrong when attempting to give yourself volume.
I use a Chi flat iron for straightening my hair and have for years with no issues but I was really hoping to get the extra volume at the roots the Instyler claimed it could give.
FWIW I bought my Instyler at Target and they let me return it there for store credit when I said the tool did not work as it claimed and returned it the next day with the receipt.

I ordered the Perfecter fusion styler, one week later it has not shipped, could not reach a person in the USA and the person I tried to talk to sounded like she was working In a basement sweatshop. Could not hear her most of the time for the noise. My problem is still not resolved but will cancel the order on Monday. Definitely, do not recommend ordering on line, I should know better. Sounded too good to be true.0 0 Reply

I am a Black woman and I love the In Styler. If it doesn't work you're not using it right or use the smaller barrel size and no product until after you have washed and straightened your hair. You also may have to use smaller sections like the instructions say. Then after add a nice smelling oil. Try to limit use to once a week and we can get rid of the weaves. Its okay to wash your hair only once a week but Saturday, save time. It takes about an hour or two. I use it on my daughter and have stopped using perms. Her hair has grown and she likes having nice smelling hair not Essence of Burning Product on her scalp. End of stank hair! I love it...1 0 Reply

I was skeptical after hearing reviews 2 yrs. ago, so I didn't buy it. My niece didn't care about the reviews and purchased one recently. My daughter has fine and thin hair - she is twelve and I do not put chemicals in he; a.ywau she goes to my nieces to get her flat ironed every week by my sister. She came home two weeks ago and her hair was soft silky and very beautiful; like she had been to the salon. I said your hair looks different this time did they use the Instyler and she said yes, so I told her if it makes your hair look that good I will go buy one. She said wait until you see D's hair (my niece). I saw it and couldn't stop playing in her hair she got soo many compliments. It worked very good. I orderdd mine, just waiting for the arrival. There are 2 sizes available and they have purple and pink. Can't wait.1 0 Reply

I purchased an instyler yesterday and so far I love it! After using it my hair is bouncy and soft and shiny. The instyler works better on my hair than a flat iron which normally leaves my hair flat and damaged! And I noticed that I wasnt losing hair like I usually do when I style my hair!1 0 Reply

PETERBOROUGH - On the weekend of Jan. 14-16, Parry Sound travelled to Peterborough to compete in the well known Liftlock tournament.
The Rotary Atoms opened up the tournament against the Seaway Valley Rapids. After a slow start in the scoreless first period, the Parry Sound team got their legs moving and Aidan Dudas scored the opening goal of the game on a breakaway.
The Shamrocks extended the lead early in the third when Casey Stevens and Dudas executed a beautiful give-and-go, capped off by a Stevens one timer. Seaway responded to cut the lead in half. That was the only one they were able to slip by the goaltending of Ben Fox, who shut the door for the rest of the game and added an assist on an insurance marker by Dudas to make it 3-1 Parry Sound.
Saturday morning the team had a quicker start versus the Peterborough Nationals. Goals by Lyle Archer and Dudas in the first two shifts of the game got the Shamrocks rolling and they never looked back, cruising to a 13-0 win.
Michael Evans scored four goals and added an assist. Archer netted a hat trick and added a helper. Leif Wilson contributed a goal and an assist. Brittany Badger, Ethan Priaulx and Casey Stevens had three helpers each. Dawson Bloor and Joel Bishop also pitched in with a pair of assists, while Jayden Blower and Cole Willis added singles. Dudas ended the game with Darryl Sittler-like totals of five goals and four assists. Ethan Roger recorded the shut-out.
In the final game of the round robin, Parry Sound faced Gloucester, looking to continue the momentum from the 13-0 victory, and finish the round robin undefeated. Parry Sound dominated the game and came away with a 6-3 win.
Dudas scored five goals, Stevens added a goal and an assist. Archer, Wilson, Connor Davidson and Andrew "Cobra" Gognavec also had helpers. Ben Fox got the win in goal.
As a reward for running through their division, the Les Badger –coached team was matched up against an undefeated team in the semi-finals for the third straight tournament. After two close losses to Midland in previous semi-finals, the 17-0-1 Campbellford Colts stood in the way of a visit to the finals. The Colts got off to an early lead but Parry Sound tied the game when Bishop moved the puck to Wilson who rushed down the ice and took the puck behind the net and set up Dudas for the tying goal. Two quick Colts goals gave them a 3-1 lead after the first period.
Aidan Dudas went end to end for a beautiful break-away goal to cut the lead in half but the momentum was short lived as the Colts gained a two goal lead 10 seconds later.
Rather than get down on themselves, Stevens went on a mission to get Parry Sound back in the game and he made it 4-3 Campbellford to end the second period. Dudas and Blower assisted on the play. Wilson again set up Dudas for his third goal of the game, tying the score at 4-4 early in the third period. The play went back and forth throughout the third period and it looked like the game would go into overtime but once again Dudas and Stevens worked some magic and Dudas scored to give Parry Sound the lead with less than three minutes remaining.
With the Campbellford goalie pulled, Parry Sound blocked a number of shots, leading up to a huge block by Stevens who flew by the defender and added an empty netter to put away the game. 6-4 Parry Sound, in the most exciting game of the year, sending Parry Sound to the final.
The Parry Sound defence of Connor Lewis, Bishop, Blower, and Priaulx were instrumental in keeping the Colts off the scoreboard throughout the second half of the game. Ethan Roger came up big as he always seems to in big games.
The championship game was held at the memorial center, home of the Peterborough Petes. The opposition was the Eastern Ontario Cobras.
A long wait, pre-game ceremonies, and the excitement of playing in an OHL arena may have added up to a slow start but Ethan Roger made a huge glove save to wake the team up and they took a 2-0 lead out of the first period on goals from Dudas and Stevens, assisted by Archer, Wilson, and Dudas. The teams exchanged goals to make it 3-1 Parry Sound after the second. Parry Sound got into penalty trouble in the third period and weren't able to mount any offence.
The Cobras tied the game but Parry Sound continued to work hard and killed off numerous penalties. The third period ended in a 3-3 tie and the game went into sudden victory overtime. The line of Stevens, Archer, and Dudas attacked relentlessly throughout the overtime and almost ended the game when a Dudas shot hit the crossbar and rolled along the top of the net, before falling behind it. Stevens quickly picked up the puck and fed it to Dudas who banged home the winner.
Parry Sound won 4-3 in overtime to become the Liftlock tournament champions. Aidan Dudas was awarded the tournament MVP for his 19 goals, including the OT winner.

China's Next Growth Milestone: Outbound Tourism.
By Hotel Managers Group (HMG Hotels)
Thursday, 24th July 2014
As most people know, China is the most populated country in the world, the countrys position on the world's stage has exploded in recent decades, making it a major player in all world events and while there are obvious political and economic implications to this growth, the impact extends to other areas as well. One of the most dramatic areas of growth has been in outbound tourism.
Currently, it is estimated that 100 million Chinese travelers venture beyond their borders, becoming active tourists around the world.
While these numbers are impressive, the growth projections are even more staggering. CLSA, a CITIC investment and brokerage firm based out of Asia, predicts that outbound tourism in China will reach 200 million by the year 2020.
This indicates that the numbers will double over a period of six years.
Along with the increase of outbound travelers, CLSA also predicts that tourist spending will rise at an even more impressive rate. As more millennial travelers seek to go abroad from China, the tourist spending numbers are expected to grow accordingly. In 2013, tourist spending was about RMB500 billion. By 2020, this number is expected to triple, reaching RMB1.4.
The CLSA predictions are based on a survey of 1000 Chinese travelers across the country. In addition to showing a dramatic increase in outbound tourism by 2020, the CLSA survey also suggests where and how these outbound dollars will be spent.
The overwhelming majority of Chinese travelers currently visit other Asian countries, with Hong Kong and Macau being the most popular. However, many travelers are showing increased interest in more exotic destinations, which is likely to take Chinese travelers to other areas in Asia and around the world.
In fact, places like Hong Kong and Macau are expected to see a decrease in Chinese tourism from 62 to 45 percent in the coming years. Destinations likely to see an increase are Thailand, Taiwan, Singapore and South Korea. Other dream destinations for most Chinese travelers include France and the United States.
This upward shift is more than optimistic thinking. The fact is that Chinese economic growth supports such an increase. Chinas GDP is poised to cross $8,000 per capita, which is often a tipping point for Asian countries. This means that more and more Chinese have ascended to the middle class, which affords them more expendable income to plan outbound vacations.
On top of increased spending money, Chinese society is evolving to better meet the demands of a thriving middle class. More Chinese employers now grant annual leave, and as China becomes a major player in world markets, more countries are easing visa restrictions against Chinese travelers.
This overall shift is likely to have a palpable impact on tourism industries worldwide. Tourist hot spots should take note and consider how best to appeal to Chinese millennial travelers in order to benefit from this unprecedented growth.
