Dr.'s Remedy Enriched Polish 8 8
I Was Thrilled To Find A Natural Nail Polish! I have not worn nail polish for years due to my nails becoming weak and fracturing. Nail polish has many chemicals in them including formaldehyde. So I bundled them all together and gave them to my nieces to play with or throw out. Because of the ingredients of this polish I purchased a bottle. Have been wearing it now for a week. No chipping and my nails are strong with no breakage. I think it is a bit overpriced but you get what you pay for sometimes. I will be trying more colors. August 10, 2014
This product is great overall This product has done everything that it said it would do. I cannot use most nail polishes/products but this is one that works well. Love all the colors also. June 6, 2014
good quality product....good color Love the idea of being a healthy product for nails! Will probably order in another color! May 31, 2014
Love the bright coral color and how long it lasts! Was impressed with its coverage. I thought it would require many coats, but did not. Also, love no stinky chemical smell filling the room like regular nail polish. Thanks for a great product. February 20, 2014
several coats needed makes a good French tip base and stayes on for a while with more than one coat January 23, 2014
Wonderful Product! I love to do my nails every 2 weeks but the regular nail polishes were damaging my nails. My nails were brittle and peeling off. Until I found this product and started using it. It works. I first purchased the hydration nail conditioner and used as a base. I also got the top clear nail polish and the ruby red one. I love it! I'll be back for the rest of the colors soon! May 9, 2013
A little misleading It appeared that this product was cosmetic as well as medical (nail fungus) so I ordered it. I have a small spot of fungus that I picked up from a salon and have been trying to get rid of it without harsh prescriptions. There was no additional information when the product arrived so I emailed the company and they referred me to a podiatrist, the product does not treat fungus. I am sure it is a great product but I know there are other healthy alternatives that could save me 15-20 bucks. April 3, 2013
Dr. recommended, Manicurist loved it My first purchase was at my physician's office. I have environmental allergies & this was "stink" free - no more wheezing. My manicurist loved the colors, application ease, and chemical-free with healthy ingredients. I used it with the clear as a base coat and top coat. There was no chipping or peeling for 2 weeks even though this is a normally a problem with my active life style. No touchups were needed. March 6, 2013

The trade-in promotion is a promising idea for the struggling company, but will iPhone owners go for it?
Here is how to wipe your personal data from a mobile device the right way before trading up to a new model.
Who says all quests worth watching happen in space? Filmmaker George Lucas brings the hero's journey into the forest with his madcap musical fairy adventure, due out in January 2015.
Using a custom rig that includes three projectors, this gamer has transformed his gaming space into a full-sized cockpit for Elite: Dangerous.
iPhone fans, you can still take advantage of carriers' hot deals, but see the new devices in person to ensure you're getting the right one, says CNET's Marguerite Reardon in this edition of Ask Maggie.
Like the carriers and other retailers, Target will offer the new iPhone for preorder on September 12 -- a week before it officially goes on sale.
Looking to get a jump on the iPhone 6 market, the wireless carrier will take trade-ins for the iPhone 4, 4S, 5, 5C, and 5S.
Sony says the decision not to feature 2K screens on its smartphones is a deliberate choice and is beneficial for consumers.
As the iPhone 6 launch approaches, more trade-in sites are clamoring for your old iPhone. eBay is leading the charge with the promise of a $100 coupon if you can't sell yours on the auction site.
Now could be the best time to get the most buyback value for your old iPhone before the iPhone 6 officially launches and prices drop. Crave's Eric Mack has done some of the research for you.

Steve Pollard, senior coffee specialist at Marex Spectron, discusses how the drought has affected coffee growing in Brazil and whether this will hit our morning cup of Joe.» Read More
Beginning on August 26, some customers will be able to get their first Pumpkin Spice Latte fix of the year. Here's how...
Pact Coffee is a coffee delivery service explains Stephen Rapoport, founder of PactCoffee.com, which sources "specialty" coffees.
The company said that its green coffee prices have jumped about 55 percent in the past year.
Marc Riddick, Williams Capital senior analyst, provides insight from the Keurig Green Mountain's earnings call, and the company's pace of spending for brand partnerships, including Subway.
John Dawson, CEO of The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, is confident that the firm's strong brand name will give it an edge over competitors in Japan.
Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz says his company is navigating through the change in the price of coffee, and there is no change in guidance. He discusses competition in the industry, and Starbucks in China.
Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz discusses his company's loyalty program strategy with "stars" as currency, and how food sales are performing.
The Seattle-based coffee company posted fiscal third-quarter earnings of 67 cents per share on $4.14 billion in revenue.
R.J. Hottovy, Morningstar equity strategist, shares his expectation on Starbuck's quarterly numbers and weighs in on whether rising coffee prices are likely to impact profits.
CNBC contributor Herb Greenberg of Reality Check shares his best strategies for playing the gold miners ETF.
*Brazil cane harvest speeds up- Unica. NEW YORK/ LONDON, July 10- Speculators triggered a fall in arabica coffee futures by liquidating positions on Thursday, taking one of this year's best performing commodities to a near five-month low and knocking off the seasonal frost premium on moderate weather forecasts.
NEW YORK/ LONDON, July 7- ICE sugar futures were down nearly 2 percent on Monday, following a smaller-than-expected reduction in speculators' bullish position, while arabica coffee pared losses as investor selling dried up, after both markets had hit 4-1/ 2- month lows.
NEW YORK/ LONDON, July 7- ICE sugar futures dropped 2 percent on Monday, following a smaller-than-expected reduction in speculators' bullish position, while arabica coffee tumbled on investor selling, with both markets falling to 4-1/ 2- month lows.
Mrs. De Niro spoke with The Profit's Marcus Lemonis on how to improve the packaging and branding of her business, Coffees of Rwanda.
Grace Hightower De Niro is passionate about her product, Coffees of Rwanda but she wants to improve her sales. Marcus Lemonis of CNBC's "The Profit" explains how she can tell the story of her coffee through the packaging and branding.
NEW YORK/ LONDON, June 27- ICE cocoa futures hit a near three-year peak on Friday on strong chart signals and falling exchange stocks, and raw sugar saw the biggest one-day rout since February on weak demand for physical delivery ahead of the July contract's expiry on Monday.
Jennifer Liu, Chairman & Founder, Sir Hudson International, says its unique coffee blend is inspired by the diversity in Hong Kong's society.
Coffee prices have dropped 5 percent over the last month, but are still one of the year's biggest commodity gainers. CNBC's Jane Wells reports the drought in Brazil may not be as bad as expected.
Starbucks will raise prices of some drinks offered at US shops as well as on its brands of packaged coffee.
CNBC's Jane Wells discusses how the drought in Brazil is affecting coffee prices.

Five Things Weird Al Critiques in Mandatory Fun
By Steve Brennan
By Ashley Zimmerman
Golden Smog, a group featuring moonlighters from several rock and roots combos, has lingered for a long time, particularly by side-project standards. On Golden Smog, an amusingly sloppy EP, arrived circa 1992, with two enjoyable full-lengths following in 1995 and 1998. There's been plenty of radio silence since then, but the gap between releases clearly hasn't done lasting damage, since Another Fine Day more than lives up to its name. While Wilco's Jeff Tweedy is the biggest star here, he doesn't dominate the proceedings; Tweedy co-wrote just two songs (the tender "Long Time Ago" and "Listen Joe") and plays on several others. His modesty allows his fellows plenty of room to shine, and they take advantage. "You Make It Easy," crooned by Run Westy Run veteran Kraig Jarret Johnson, is a dark yet irresistible obsession tune; "Corvette," starring Soul Asylum's Dan Murphy, speeds toward power-pop nirvana; and the propulsive "Frying Pan Eyes" shows that the Jayhawks' Gary Louris can do more than twang.

Blog Design Copied - What Would You Do?
I posted a blog post yesterday, so the first thing I did when I woke up this morning was look at Google Analytics to for the most popular traffic sources. I found the following:
Never having heard of it before, I clicked it. I then clicked one of the first links on the page and saw this:
Here's my blog:
Wow! Full-on copy of my blog design. The blog title "build_something!" was even the title of a previous blog post Build Something.
The copied blog has a Github link so I clicked it. And sure enough…my entire repo (not even forked). Just a local clone, showing mostly commits by me.
Now, you're probably asking yourself why I put it on Github in the first place. Honestly, it's the perfect backup. And I never thought any one would copy the entire thing!
I spent several months with the help of a really talented UI designer to finalize my blog design. And in the end, was really happy with the outcome.
The whole thing is disappointing…sure I could try to ignore it, but after investing that much time, it's a bummer to see your work copied in 5 minutes without care or inquiry.
So the question is…what would you do?
Update: Even after several requests to take the design down, the person in question has disagreed, even without my consent to use the code.

June 5, 2012
A western Missouri man has caught a record 5-pound, 6-ounce carpsucker, giving him his third state record fish.
The Department of Conservation says Nicholas Wray, of
Harrisonville, caught the lunker on a trotline last month on the
South Grand River in Cass County.
Missouri keeps state records for fish caught by pole and line
and through alternative methods. Wray also holds the record for a
carpsucker caught on a pole and line, thanks to a 2-pound, 3-ounce
carpsucker he landed in 2008 about 100 yards from where he made
last month's record catch.
Wray holds a third state record for a 2-pound, 4-ounce black
bullhead he caught in 2010 on a jug line.
Wray estimates he fishes about 200 days each year, going out
most nights after work.

So it doesn't matter that 1 out of every 10 passes you throw is an interception?
Not if 4 out of every 10 passes you throw is a touchdown. Using isolated stats like you are out of context is why people say stats are meaningless. It isn't the numbers themselves but how they are used. So throwing an Int every 10 passes may or may not be relevant. That is why things like TD to Int ratio is a better statistic than Ints alone. So if you throw 200 passes and 20 are interceptions but 80 are TDs, does that make you good or bad? How about if you throw 200 times and 3 are INTs and 1 is a TD, does that make you better or worse than the first quarterback??

Demi Lovato is about to get her flirt on.
The young singer will release the full-length, official video for her latest track, "Give Your Heart A Break," on April 2. But she's offered fans a very quick peek at it online and it looks like Demi will be played a bit of sexy hide-and-seek with a mystery man during the shoot.
"'Give Your Heart a Break' isn't a song about having a broken heart," Lovato said last week. "This is a song about faith, it's a song about fighting for the one you love."
We can't wait to watch the complete version. For now, though, enjoy what you can and then watch Demi take this same single to the American Idol stage.

St. John's is a city perched on the edge of nature, surrounded by scenic beauty, dramatic coastlines and wildlife. I decided to grab my picnic blanket and basket and perch myself at some of our top destinations. Join me as I explore our colourful capital city:
1 Apr 2014 by Janelle Hickey in Boat Tours , Birdwatching , Food & Dining , Icebergs , Whale Watching , Nature , History , Trip Planning , Lighthouses , St. John's , Twillingate and Outdoor Adventure
A day spent on the water is a quintessential experience when travelling to Newfoundland & Labrador. Set sail from St. John's harbour and witness the world's largest concentration of humpback whales, 12,000 year old icebergs and elegant seabirds feeding in our coastal waters. Iceberg Quest's award winning tour has been departing from St. John's and Twillingate showcasing Newfoundland's unique charm for over a decade. I sat down down with Captain Barry Rogers for an unforgettable hour as he regaled me with tales of his childhood on the water, the beginnings of Iceberg Quest and a sneak peek of some of their new product offerings for 2014.
11 Dec 2013 by Janelle Hickey in Shopping and St. John's
This week on our quest to shop local for Christmas we visit the fishing village of Quidi Vidi. Our first stop was The Quidi Vidi Plantation, a unique marriage of cultural interpretation and contemporary craft creation. After visiting the plantation we suggest making your way down to The Quidi Vidi Brewery for some locally brewed beverages. Quidi Vidi Brewing Company Limited (QV) was established in 1996. QV is a Newfoundland-based independent brewing company focused on producing world-class quality beers for the mainstream, specialty, and now the premium segment of the beer market.

- Brunch only...surprise!Spring2VIPDined on 6/15/2014We recently visited this restaurant on a Sunday. We were not aware that there were no 'menu options' available when we reserved, they serve brunch only on Sunday. After the initial disappointment, everyone in our large group enjoyed the food. It's a bit of a wait to get through the brunch line though...Special Features:
- Show night service is averageKevinODined on 6/1/2014I have eaten here several times. Decent food and atmosphere. If going to a show same evening - allow minimum of 2 hours. Our service every time has made us rush to make show. 3 times. Next time we will try different spot.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Won't be my 1st choicenotarestaurantsnobDined on 5/11/2014First time to Matt the Miller's, have to say that the food was decent, however, not so good that it would be my 1st choice for a night out, especially for the price on many of the entrees. Although the restaurant didn't seem to be crowded, our server would disappear for long periods, and didn't see very attentive to our table.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 4/17/2014Food was great as always, but our service during this particular visit was not up to par. Very slow to order as well as to get bill and pay...probably just a fluke, but disappointing gor sure.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Business Lunches and DinnersChrisDined on 3/4/2014Matt the Miller's has been a go-to spot for our team outings and small department meals and meetings. Friendly staff, good menu selection and craft beer offerings. We'll be back.Special Features:
- Nice PlaceJaniceVIPDined on 12/26/2013Had a very nice time. Good friends, good food, good time. A bit disappointed in our table. There were 8 in our party, but we were seated at a table for 6. It was a bit tight. We had reservations in advance. Not sure why that happened.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food was excellent, serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 11/7/2013Food was excellent, service was friendly, prompt and courteous. Definitely one of my favoritesSpecial Features:
- Great experience!laves0826Dined on 9/18/2013I would recommend Matt the Miller's! Great service for our group of 10. Great food selection and even better yet, a fabulous craft beer selection! Finally, a restaurant that understands that having a great choice of craft beer makes a difference! Had they not had good beer choices I would have taken our group somewhere else! Great job, Matt the Miller's!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Average Neighborhood TavernLoveEyeTalianVIPDined on 7/6/2013In town for a family event & found Matt the Miller's Tavern. Reviewed the OT scores/menu, chose the Tavern for lunch & made reservation for party of six. Four minutes after our reservation time, the Tavern cancelled my reservation. After calling the Tavern to find out why, they stated the Tavern only takes reservations for parties of 7+. Emailed OT, presented my case & was awarded the reservation points. Tavern's menu was extensive, probably something for everyone, and prices were reasonable. Food was good, but service took a rather long time, longer than expected even though there weren't too many people/tables in the restaurant (our lunch reservation was at 1:15pm). If I return to Carmel, I will not be returning to the Tavern.Special Features:
- This restaurant is very loud.OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 4/13/2013This restaurant is very loud. The food is good but nothing out of the ordinary, especially for the price.Special Features:

text: GOP Rep. on David Webb's National Security Special on Syria: Our Best Hope There 'Relies in the Refugees' Print article Send a Tip by Jarrett Stepman 14 Sep 2013 post a comment Rep. Robert Pittinger (R-NC) said on David Webb's National Security Special on Syria on SiriusXM Patriot channel 125 that America's hope in resolving the Syria conflict may be in arming refugees to take back their country. He said that "we need to pursue this with real caution," but that relying on native Syrians presents a chance to turn things around. Pittinger said of the Syrian refugees that have in large part fled to the neighboring country of Jordan, "You can equip and train these people." He explained, "There are tens of thousands of men that are motivated, and they want their country back." Webb's co-host, Kerry Patton, pushed back against Pittinger's idea of arming refugees: "I find it reprehensible that you claim we can train an army of peasants" to take on the professional militants in Syria. Patton said such a force would have little chance of success. Former Army Ranger Jack Murphy also chimed in, saying, "I'm skeptical about how much weight you could put on a refugee army, and how much return you would have on that investment." He said that this refugee army would be ineffective, prolong the war, and add to the body count, but it would not fix the situation.

In the early Nineties, there was a shift in the perception of Kate Moss. Moving away from the catwalk, she was based more in London -- her active social life with the so-called Primrose Hill set, including Sadie Frost and Pearl Lowe, became the stuff of weekly magazines and the tabloids. Professionally, she continued to model, with high-profile and extremely lucrative contracts with Chanel and Burberry, later extending to embrace Rimmel and H among others, and to ordinary women -- who might not afford the labels she endorsed -- Moss became a style icon. Sociologists call the phenomenon "upward mobility". Economists call it the "demonstration effect". Some call it "snob value".

The living embodiment of the Beatles, a musical juggernaut without parallel, Paul McCartney is undoubtedly the senior figure in pop music today. In this authoritative biography, journalist and acclaimed author Howard Sounes leaves no stone unturned in building the most accurate and extensive profile yet of music's greatest living legend. He is one of the biggest stars that has ever existed, the only key member left from the unquestioned 'biggest band of all time'.
A classic BBC Radio full-cast production of Dylan Thomas' poetic play for voices starring Richard Burton as the narrator. To begin at the beginning: it is spring, moonless night in the small town, starless and bible-black.... When Richard Burton breathed the opening words of 'Under Milk Wood' into a microphone, broadcasting history was made.
"Under Milk Wood"
Here's a rhyming story of a mouse and a monster. Little mouse goes for a walk in a dangerous forest. To scare off his enemies, he invents tales of a fantastical creature called the Gruffalo. So imagine his surprise when he meets the real Gruffalo.
"Poor free book"
As a young man, Ed Catmull had a dream: To make the world's first computer-animated movie. He nurtured that dream first as a Ph.D. student at the University of Utah, where many computer science pioneers got their start, and then forged an early partnership with George Lucas that led, indirectly, to his founding Pixar with Steve Jobs and John Lasseter in 1986. Nine years later and against all odds, Toy Story was released, changing animation forever.
"A truly inspiring book"
Great music is a language unto its own, a means of communication of unmatched beauty and genius. And it has an undeniable power to move us in ways that enrich our lives-provided it is understood.If you have ever longed to appreciate great concert music, to learn its glorious language and share in its sublime pleasures, the way is now open to you, through this series of 48 wonderful lectures designed to make music accessible to everyone who yearns to know it, regardless of prior training or knowledge.

"Could have been perfect"
In a sodden tent at a '70s festival, the teenage Mark Ellen had a dream. He dreamt that music was a rich meadow of possibility, a liberating leap to a sparkling future, an industry of human happiness - and he wanted to be part of it. Thus began his 50-year love affair with rock and roll.

Performed by the author and five of Britain's leading actresses, Alan Bennett's tales are full of quirky, insightful detail that bring the characters vividly to life. From Julie Walters' portrayal of an actress seeking fame to Anna Massey's alcoholic vicar's wife, these individuals are linked by their self-delusion, desperation, and vulnerability.
"Outstanding monologues"
Corey Taylor has seen a lot of unbelievable things. The Grammy Award-winning singer of Slipknot and Stone Sour's curiosity has drawn him into situations that would've sent most people screaming scared and running for the hills. Corey's ballsy enough to go into the darkness and deal with the consequences though. As a result, he's seen ghosts up close and personal, whether it be while combing through an abandoned house in his native Iowa as a child or recording an album in the fabled Houdini Hollywood Hills mansion.

First published in 1973, this is a study of the force of photographic images, which are continually inserted between experience and reality. When anything can be photographed, and photography has destroyed the boundaries and definitions of art, a viewer can approach a photograph freely, with no expectations of discovering what it means. This collection of six lucid and invigorating essays, with the most famous being "In Plato's Cave", make up a deep exploration of how the image has affected society.

This four-part work follows him through his transformations from child, man and woman to blind prophet; through this structure, Tempest holds up a mirror to contemporary life in a direct and provocative way rarely associated with poetry.
Written by Jennifer Worth, Farewell to the East End is one of the trilogy of memoirs upon which the popular BBC series Call the Midwife is based. London's East End in the 1950s was a vibrant place-a close-knit community of families where children made playgrounds on bombsites and a lively social scene emerged.

Later, when Edmund inherited the 'netsuke', they unlocked a story far larger than he could ever have imagined....
"My favourite book of all time"
It's easy to feel insecure around art and its appreciation, as though we cannot enjoy certain artworks if we don't have a lot of academic and historical knowledge. But if there's one message that I want you to take away it's that anybody can enjoy art and anybody can have a life in the arts - even me! For even I, an Essex transvestite potter, have been let in by the artworld mafia.
Stein on Writing provides immediately useful advice for writers of fiction and nonfiction, whether newcomers or accomplished professionals. As Sol Stein, renowned editor, author, and instructor, explains, "This is not a book of theory. It is a book of usable solutions, how to fix writing that is flawed, how to improve writing that is good, how to create interesting writing in the first place."
"This book has improved all my writing"
Two archive BBC Radio programmes in which Judi Dench and Michael Williams, accompanied by friends John Moffatt and Alec McCowen, read a cornucopia of poetry and prose. In this enchanting pair of programmes from 1991 and 1996, Dame Judi Dench and husband Michael Williams shared an eclectic selection of pieces that they loved, admired or simply found entertaining.
The Beatles have been in our lives for half a century and surely always will be. Still, somehow, their music excites, their influence resonates, their fame sustains. New generations find and love them, and while many other great artists come and go, the Beatles are proving beyond eclipse. So ... who really were these people, and just how did it all happen? 'The Beatles story' is everywhere. Told wrong from early on, rehashed in every possible way and routinely robbed of its context, this is a phenomenon in urgent need of a bright, new approach.
"Quite incredible detail"
January 1970: the Beatles assemble one more time to put the finishing touches on Let It Be; Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young are wrapping up Déjà Vu; Simon and Garfunkel are unveiling Bridge Over Troubled Water; James Taylor is an upstart singer-songwriter who's just completed Sweet Baby James. Over the course of the next twelve months, their lives---and the world around them---will change irrevocably.
Bestselling biographer Philip Norman offers an unparalleled account of the life of a living legend, Mick Jagger. From Home Counties schoolboy, to rebel without a cause, to Sixties sensation and global idol, Norman unravels the myth of the inimitable frontman of The Rolling Stones.
"Loved it !"
For more than a quarter of a century, Philip Norman's internationally best-selling Shout! has been unchallenged as the definitive biography of the Beatles. Now, at last, Norman turns his formidable talent to the Beatle for whom belonging to the world's most beloved pop group was never enough. Drawing on previously untapped sources, and with unprecedented access to all the major characters, here is the most complete and revealing portrait of John Lennon that is ever likely to be published.
"Never written a review before, but..."
As lead singer and songwriter for the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Anthony Kiedis has lived life on the razor's edge. Much has been written about him, but until now, we've only had his songs as clues to his experience from the inside. In Scar Tissue, Kiedis proves himself to be as compelling a memoirist as he is a lyricist, giving us a searingly honest account of the life from which his music has evolved.
"A bit disappointing"
A detailed account of Gaga's rise to fame, from her early life when she was known as Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, through to her current super-stardom.
By rights, Ozzy Osbourne should not be alive. He spent forty years on a hell-raising, bat-biting, ant-snorting*, drink and drug-fuelled bender. He broke his neck going two miles an hour on a quad bike and died twice in a chemically induced coma. And yet - at 62 years old - he is healthier and happier than ever. He is a walking medical miracle. So who better to offer the public medical advice and support?

Smart and incisive, this unique book takes us through Bruce Springsteen's life by tracing the cultural, political, and personal forces that shaped his music. Beyond his constant stylistic adaptations, Springsteen developed over the decades from expressing the voice of a guy from working-class New Jersey to writing about the larger issues facing the country, including war, class disparity, and prejudice. Marc Dolan draws on a range of new and little-known sources - including hundreds of unreleased studio recordings and bootlegs of live performances - making this an indispensable reference for avid Springsteen fans as well as those interested in learning the stories behind his music.
La música es una manifestación artística presente en la totalidad de la historia. Desde el nacimiento de las primeras sociedades tribales hasta la actualidad, ha acompañado al hombre no sólo en los acontecimientos históricos más relevantes, sino en la vida cotidiana de los seres humanos. Es por esto que un acercamiento a la historia de la música es necesario para cualquier hombre, pero muchas veces los conceptos musicales pueden ser complejos o nuevos para el oyente.
When Bruce Springsteen went back on the road in 1984, he opened every show by shouting out, "one, two, one, two, three, four," followed by the droning synth chords of "Born in the U.S.A." Max Weinberg hit his drums with a two-fisted physicality that cut through the swelling chords. With a rolled-up red kerchief around his head and heavy black boots under his faded jeans, Springsteen looked like the character of the song, and from the very first line.
"What a rubbish website!"
Before he was the swaggering, stadium-packing megastar, Bruce Springsteen was a brooding introvert, desperate to strike a balance between his nuanced songwriting and the heft of his backing band. Clinton Heylin's revelatory biography, E Street Shuffle, chronicles the evolution and influence of Springsteen's E Street Band as they rose from blue-collar New Jersey to the heights of rock stardom.
Between the fitfully brilliant Bringing It All Back Home and the sprawling masterwork that is Blonde on Blonde, Highway 61 Revisited stands as the defining moment in both Dylan's career and the musical evolution of the mid 1960's. But beyond its place in history, Highway 61 works because of its enduring emotional appeal. Few songwriters before Dylan or since have combined so effectively the intensely personal with the spectacularly universal.
"Quite A Journey"

The story of Stax Records unfolds like a Greek tragedy. A white brother and sister build a record company that becomes a monument to racial harmony in 1960's segregated south Memphis.

Under integrated leadership, Stax explodes as a national player until, Icarus-like, they fall from great heights to a tragic demise.
Yngwie Malmsteen's revolutionary guitar style - combining elements of classical music with the speed and volume of heavy metal - made him a staple of the 80s rock scene. Decades later, he's still a legend among guitarists, having sold 11 million albums and influenced generations of rockers since. In Relentless, Malmsteen shares his personal story, from the moment he burst onto the scene seemingly out of nowhere in the early 80s to become a household name in the annals of heavy metal.
The Stone Roses shows a band sizzling with skill, consumed with drive and aspiration and possessing an almost preternatural mastery of the pop paradigm. This book explores the political and cultural zeitgeist of England in 1989, and attempts to apprehend the magic ingredients that made The Stone Roses such a special album.
To absorb Rum, Sodomy, & the Lash is to be taken on a wild voyage with a cast of downtrodden revolutionaries. Despite this notion, the epic themes of the Pogues' second full length record have been overlooked by both critics and biographers in favor of two things: the band's penchant for combining Celtic folk with punk rhythms ("the sound") and the excesses of Shane MacGowan ("the creator").

Fibonacci math fun wearing Fibonacci T-shirt
Funny Fibonacci T-shirt features Italian Fibonacci's series of integers in this clever Sidney Harris cartoon. Ash 100% cotton T-shirt. (#1955) Questions about sizes? A ComputerGear exclusive. Item in stock unless noted above.
This Fibonacci T-shirt is a tribute to Leonardo of Pisa -- Fibonacci -- known for his sequence of numbers called "the Fibonacci numbers" introduced to Western European mathematicians in 1202. The mathematical sequence begins with two predetermined numbers and each subsequent number is the sum of the two previous numbers -- 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34 and so on.
Geometrically, adjoining quadrant arcs with radii of each sequential Fibonacci number produce a beautiful spiral form common in nature such as the arrangement of seeds on sunflowers, the chambers of conch shells, pine cones and more.
Furthermore, adjacent Fibonacci numbers, when divided tend to the ratio known as the "golden mean", an irrational number representing proportion again common in nature and admired in art and music. Think of the proportions of the Parthenon and Leonardo da Vinci's Vitruvian man.
Fibonacci was also known for his popularization in the West of the so-called Arabic numerals we use today. A must have for any math, science or engineering buff. Almost as cool as the number pi itself, and you know how much we love our irrational numbers!

LEE COUNTY, Fla. - A Fort Myers mother is facing DUI charges after she crashed her Jeep with her kids in the car over the weekend. Christina Cavanaugh is being held on bond for several counts of DUI.
Cavanaugh made her first appearance in Lee County court Monday morning. A judge ordered she wear an alcohol monitoring bracelet while her case is ongoing. The 45-year-old mother of two was told she can not possess or consume alcohol and is subject to random drug and alcohol screenings.
She's facing four counts of DUI and property damage, DUI with blood alcohol content above .15 or higher, and refusal to submit a DUI test.
This, after she crashed her Jeep sunday afternoon on US-41 near Elwood Road, just north of Estero Parkway, with her kids in the car.
Lee County sheriff's deputies say the mother of two was changing lanes when she lost control. They allegedly found empty wine bottles in the front seat of Cavanaugh's jeep, and said she smelled of alcohol at the time of the crash.
The state attorney's office mentioned in court that the Department of Children and Families has been notified of Cavanaugh's arrest. She's been flagged as a "high risk" inmate in the Lee County jail.

Imagine being so disfigured you could not close your mouth, and when you ate, food came out of your eye.
That was the reality for one baby.
It was something her surgeons say they have never seen before.
Now, here is a look at if their one-of-a-kind procedure paid off for her.
Ask host mom Gina Denlinger about baby Asmaou, and she talks about her personality.
Gina says, "She's a very calm, sweet content baby."
However, the reason this child has travelled 5,000 miles from Africa is because of her appearance. Asmaou was born with a facial cleft. It not only affects the lip and palate, but the entire face and the underlying bone.
"If we fed her solid food, it would come out there, in the bottom of her eye."
Plastic surgeon Brian Pan of Shriners Children's Hospital in Cincinnati took on the challenging case.
Dr. Pan says, "There's a lack of tissue as well as bone in the mid-face, and then obviously, there's a cleft in her lip."
Since Asmaou's eye didn't close all the way, she also risked blindness. With little on the books about her condition, Dr. Pan took what he knew about pediatric plastic surgery and created a one-of-a-kind procedure for Asmaou using her existing skin and tissue. Her initial five-hour surgery was carefully planned out, taking into account her need for future surgeries.
"This process for her is going to be over the next 18 years of her life as she continues to grow."
Gina says, "I couldn't imagine what she would look like with everything put back together."
There is now a face that matches baby Asmaou's sweet personality.
Asmaou is set for her next surgery sometime this summer.
Then, she'll head back to Africa until she needs another procedure.
BACKGROUND: Oro-facial clefts are birth defects where the mouth, or roof of the mouth, does not form properly while in the womb. A cleft is a separation in a body structure, often resulting from the failure of tissues to grow together properly. Oral facial clefts may involve the lip, the roof of the mouth (hard palate) or the soft tissue in the back of the mouth (soft palate). Oro-facial clefts are one of the most common birth defects in the United States occurring in 1 of 750 births. (Source: www.ccakids.com, health.utah.gov)
SYMPTOMS: The major symptom of a cleft lip or cleft palate is a visible opening in the lip or palate. Other symptoms include: feeding problems (especially with cleft palate), problems with speech development, dental problems, including missing teeth, especially when cleft lip extends to the upper gum area, recurrent Otitis Media, and hearing problems. A doctor can diagnose cleft lip or cleft palate by examining a newborn baby. A newborn with an oral-facial cleft may be referred to a team of medical specialists almost immediately after birth. Rarely, a partial or "submucous" cleft palate may be left undiagnosed for several months or even years. (Source: www.thirdage.com)
CAUSES: The lip and palate develop separately, but both form very early in fetal development. Oral facial clefts occur 5 to 9 weeks after conception if tissues in the developing mouth fail to merge together and fully fuse. The cause of oral facial clefts is thought to be caused from several reasons including genes as well as environmental factors. Oral facial clefts are often associated with other birth defects as part of a syndrome. More than 200 syndromes are associated with orofacial clefts including Stickler's syndrome, 22q11 deletion syndrome, Van der Woude syndrome. Often syndromes associated with oral facial clefts have a recognized chromosomal or genetic cause. (Source: health.utah.gov)
TREATMENTS: Due to the many variations in clefts, there is no specific cure or treatment for the cleft repair. However one plastic surgeon is setting the bar in facial cleft repair. Plastic surgeon Brian Pan of Shriners Children's Hospital in Cincinnati is helping children with facial clefts. Since doctors do not have a solution's manual for this type of birth defect, Dr. Pan uses his experience for coming up with a solution for repairing clefts.
"There's no cookie cutter way of dealing with each patient and you have to do it truly on an individualized basis. Each operation is tailored for the patient," Dr. Pan explained.
