Lining the shelves of many health food stores and the "natural" skin-care aisles of quite a few national grocery store chains is this sweetly named line of skin-care products. Similar to competitor Burt's Bees (where Burt himself sold handmade products out of the back of his pickup truck), the owners of Kiss My Face are also vegetarians. (What does dietary preference have to do with skin care? We don't know, but it's mentioned several times in the information about this company.) Also similar to Burt's Bees, the founders of Kiss My Face started on a farm and took their products and concept to the big city, where it was well received.
Of course, the farm setting juxtaposed with the urban success speaks to the company's desire to maintain their natural image, despite using several ingredients that aren't natural in the least. If anything, many of the natural ingredients Kiss My Face chooses are a problem for skin because they cause irritation. Even more upsetting is that they do so without exerting a benefit. The company claims to use the latest scientific research mixed with the best nature has to offer, saying that doesn't leave any room for "unnecessary chemical additives," but there is a lot of research about all kinds of ingredients, natural and synthetic, that indicates they are excellent for skin. Kiss My Face must be doing some inadequate or extremely limited research.
What Kiss My Face lacks is a product range that keeps up with state-of-the-art options from neighboring lines in the mass market. We are leery of any skin-care company that claims to be using the latest research and yet sells sunscreens without reliable UVA protection, toners with irritants, and far more bar soaps, which are also a problem for skin, than water-soluble cleansers. Again, what research are they using? Although the natural slant here is more a front than factual, there are some winning products to consider, and the price point is very attractive, as is the simple packaging. Shopping Kiss My Face carefully can result in some great beauty bargains.

Jean-Eric Vergne has dropped to 16th in the official classification for the US GP as the stewards deemed him responsible for his last lap crash with Esteban Gutierrez.
Fighting just outside the top ten in Sunday's race in Texas, Vergne and Gutierrez clashed resulting in the Sauber spinning of the track.
Called before the stewards, Vergne was blamed for the incident with the Toro Rosso driver being slapped with a retrospective drive-through penalty.
As a result, the Frenchman had 20 seconds added to his time which meant he dropped from 12th to 16th.
Vergne, however, blames Gutierrez for the shunt.
"On the last lap, I tried to pass my team-mate at Turn 1, and it didn't work and we ran wide, but I think he had used a bit of KERS on the straight so I couldn't pass him," he said.
"I used all my KERS on the next straight to try and outbrake him but then Gutierrez clipped my rear wheel at Turn 12 and he tried to pass me and we touched."

I know I'm a noob here but yeah please can someone get control of the trolls and the idiocy or at least brush into a corner thread of insanity? On the other hand I think the Mods/admins/owners have no vested interest in moderating this board as they want you to pay for the VIP site. But some of these threads are redundant or stupid. It's ok to bash the team but do we 15 threads calling for tannehill's head or Irelands or whoever's. just my 2 cents
Good GOD.
I'm OUT.
Love the Dolphins. Hate all the ****ing idiots on this board who cannot se the good things in the first game.
I'll see you idiots after the first win. I suspect it will be a short hiatus.
"If foot fetish videos of your wife surface online, and the voice of the cameraman sounds like you, just admit that it was you ... because the alternative is that someone else was filming foot fetish videos of your wife, and I'm pretty sure that's worse." - Bill Simmons's enduring lesson to Rex Ryan.
They should have a perl script that moves anything where Devlin is mentioned to Spam.
Andrew Luck VS New England
0-3 with 6 TD's and 8 picks. Not sure "Suck for Luck" helps in our division. Maybe we stop the "meaningless wins" talk.
so yea lets move this thread without notification or response so a place on the forum where no one goes.
Actually, we're volunteers that do this in our free time and get absolutely nothing individually when people join VIP (except much better conversation in there). Merges will come, including a merge of threads calling for merges, but priority is making sure everybody remains at least mildly civil. In general, we try to avoid it because it becomes a far greater mess with far more complaints. The best thing people can do is start their own threads about the game (rather than complaining about the board and fans) and drown out the garbage.
to be honest, we have to walk a tightrope. we can't just merge willy nilly, because that isn't fair to legit threads and can stifle conversations. if everyone agreed we wouldn't have anything to talk about. basically it's "let them post" as long as it falls within the tos.
"I didn't feel like we had to score," Tannehill said. "I had the mindset we were going to score."

Help reduce the impact on the environment during your trip
We all have the desire to travel and see the world; to explore new places and discover new cultures. And in today's world, international travel is cheaper and more accessible than ever before.
Tourism is now the world's fastest growing industry, but of course with that comes the increased responsibility on us to try to reduce any negative impact our journeys may have on the environment. About 700 million people worldwide travel every year, with over 30 million tourists visiting Britain from abroad. That's a lot of flights, car journeys, overnight stays and money spent. But that doesn't mean you have to forfeit your summer holiday and sit at home looking at pictures. There's lots you can do to travel responsibly and counterbalance the environmental effects of travelling.
Why not participate in a local activity like a carnival or a fête? This way you really get the chance to understand local cultures and traditions – not to mention have a great day out! Remember, there are so many ways you can get to know and add value to the local environment and culture. Try anything from visiting local farmer's markets, ensuring you use bio-degradable products during your trip, you could even talk to local accommodation owners about what they are doing to help – who knows? You could even give them some tips of your own!
Hotels and B&Bs consume large amounts of energy to heat and air condition rooms, wash laundry, power TVs, radios and mini bars, and light rooms and hallways. When at your accommodation, make the same considerations you would at home; turn off lights and stand-by on appliances, take short showers instead of baths. And do you really need your towels and sheets washed every day?
Above all we have to change our travel habits if we want to reduce the negative impact on the environment. When we're on holiday, we tend to be more laid-back about things like reusing plastic bags and water bottles or turning off lights. If we can adjust our attitudes and general habits regarding responsible travel so that we incorporate things like using local products and 'car-free' days naturally into holiday arrangements, we can make a real difference.
VisitBritain would like to invite you to take part in a short survey about our website.

NFPA 1452: Guide for Training Fire Service Personnel to Conduct Dwelling Fire Safety Surveys, 2010 Edition
|Item # 145210
|Member *
|Table of Contents
|Quantity Discounts
Apply NFPA 1452's solutions to protect lives and property in your community.
NFPA 1452: Guide for Training Fire Service Personnel to Conduct Dwelling Fire Safety Surveys provides fire department training officers or other fire service personnel with basic guidance on elements to include in a locally developed dwelling fire safety program. Principles can be applied to single-family as well as multi-family dwellings in both rural and urban communities.
The 2010 NFPA 1452 encourages community-wide hazards education.
Important updates include a new chapter that encourages a fire department or organization to expand their public service and education program to include other major hazards, both natural and human caused. This opens the possibilities for an all-hazard community-wide education program, coordinated with other organizations and resources.
Other revisions help reduce common hazards in a comprehensive approach to fire safety.
Used together with NFPA 1144: Reducing Structure Ignition Hazards from Wildland Fire, the 2010 edition of NFPA 1452 provides a more complete approach to reducing fire hazards "inside and outside" homes, dwellings, and other structures. The chapter on wildland/urban interface hazards is completely revised to reflect the 2008 edition of NFPA 1144. This revised approach to inspecting or surveying of properties in the wildland/urban interface includes information from the NFPA Firewise Communities program and other NFPA® documents.
This important edition of NFPA 1452 is essential for community leaders as well as fire fighters, public educators, fire service training, company officers, inspectors, and wildland fire personnel. (Softbound, 19 pp., 2010)

ANNAPOLIS, Md. - Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley likes to brag about the No. 1 rating his state's schools have gotten from Education Week for five years in a row.
He also likes to brag about the accomplishments of children educated in them.
So, in his State of the State address on Wednesday, O'Malley put the spotlight on one very special student.
The governor introduced the North County High School student as an inventor, an entrepreneur and a very persistent young man who approached 199 colleges and universities before one finally granted him space to work on a project.
That project resulted in a patent.
Before introducing 15-year-old Jack Andraka, O'Malley quipped, "Buy stock in this guy!"
Andraka, of Crownsville, not only won the 2012 Intel Science Fair, but he also holds the patent on a method to detect pancreatic cancer.
Andraka says smiling, "I really love doing science, because it's creativity and finding elegant solutions."
What's unusual about Andraka isn't just his youth and talent, but the way he arrived at what he calls that "elegant solution."
"Essentially all I did was use Google and Wikipedia outside of school and connected stuff that I was learning in school and I came up with all these ideas about pancreatic cancer -- and I just ran with that."
Andraka has some thoughts about his future that may add to the pride his home state has in him.
"I really like Johns Hopkins because that's actually where I did the research for my project, but I also like the University of Maryland at College Park."
Listen to Andraka talk about his project:

Is it just me, or is there just something special about ODC?
Here's my most recent toy, for myself.
Forced patina with hot sauce and dijon mustard = Spicy Carbon, right?
If you have this same affliction, show it off!
Is it just me, or is there just something special about ODC?
Here's my most recent toy, for myself.
Forced patina with hot sauce and dijon mustard = Spicy Carbon, right?
If you have this same affliction, show it off!
That's purdy
Alright, I'm expanding upon this thread.
I want to thank you guys for making this start up so successful! This is awesome!!!
I'm getting the feeling that the ODC is a hit, along with the soap and vintage shaving gear (as per requests). The good news is I'll be putting up a few more of these types of items on Monday, but my stock is limited (although, I'm always searching, and getting "new" stuff in).
If you guys have any "must haves", let me know and I'll do my absolute best to track them, or something similar, down.
Hmm, maybe you should hold my parcel until I have seen the new ODC you are putting up on Monday... might be something more I... "need".
[FONT="Microsoft Sans Serif"][I]-"we're gonna make gluten free lasagna"[/I][/FONT]
Thing of beauty for sure
Even though they aren't carbon, I figure I'll toss this in this thread, because it's an item that seems to be doing really well, as well.
The Harner Stabbers seem to be generating a lot of interest (sold one, without even having a chance to post it, and the other two are gone, already!).
What else might you guys be after, that is a bit out of the ordinary, that you want me to get?
Sorry for only getting one item up on Monday. I've been a little busy, between my wife's birthday and work, but today, I've worked on some stuff and here's a crappy pic "teaser" of what's to come.
They're all very cool knives, but man is the 12" chef knife ever awesome!
So I just finished a project I've been procrastinating over and I figured I'd share in your ODC thread. Brought an old beat up Sab back to life.
Wow! That looks insanely good! Nice work!
Thanks! I'm getting much better, I think. Grinding the bolster down with DMT plates/stones wasn't fun, I can tell you. It's incredibly satisfying to see the finished product though. Really adds a lot of personal pride and satisfaction in ownership, at least to me.

The Department of Music encourages students to pursue their enthusiasm for music by developing their performing talents, expanding their technical understanding, and broadening their knowledge of centuries of music history. A solid academic foundation in these areas enriches a student's musical experiences while enhancing other skills with broad applicability: the ability to act cooperatively, a capacity for critical thought, and habits of discipline and precision.
By offering a wide array of opportunities in the classroom, the rehearsal hall, and the concert stage, our program promotes informed and satisfying engagements with music of diverse styles and eras.
Salil Sachdev has composed music for the orchestra, percussion, piano, theater, voice, and electronic music. His teaching areas comprise music theory, form and analysis, introduction to world music, and introduction to music of Africa. He also directed the West African Drumming Ensemble at Bridgewater State University for several years.
Salil organizes the BSU Annual World Music Festival. His interest in world music has taken him to India, Ireland, Africa and Cuba. He has studied hand percussion (including West African Djembe drumming), the Bodhrán (Irish drum), and Solkattu, the rhythmic system of south India.
Salil is currently working towards making a series of documentary films on Indian folk music. In 2008, he completed a film on the music of the Sidis, an ethnic group of East African ancestry living in India for the last 800-900 years. Presently, he is in the process of completing a film on the folk music of Rajasthan, a state in the northwest part of the country.
In 2011, he also made a film on the traditional music of Mali, West Africa.
Salil is a member of Caravan (BSU Faculty World Music Trio) and Guihangtar (guitar and percussion duo performing compositions and arrangements inspired by nature and traditional music not bound by cultural confines).

Mark Turgeon is entering his fourth season at the helm of the University of Maryland men's basketball team.
Since arriving in College Park, Turgeon has signed three consecutive nationally-ranked recruiting classes, including the eighth-ranked class in 2014. Last season, he captured his 300th career victory with an 85-74 defeat of Tulsa on Dec. 29, before leading the Terps to a thrilling overtime win against No. 5 Virginia in Maryland's final ACC regular season game.
Turgeon's winning percentage of .600 (42-28) was the best mark by a Maryland coach in his first two seasons, ahead of Bud Millikan (.592) and Gary Williams (.574). After bringing in a top-15 recruiting class in 2012, he led the Terrapins to a 25-13 record (most wins in six seasons) and appearances in the ACC Tournament semifinals and the NIT semifinals in 2012-13.
Turgeon directed Maryland to three wins over a ranked team in 2012-13 after Maryland had gone two seasons without one. The Terps were the only team in the nation to beat Duke twice, while also knocking off then-14th ranked NC State at home in January. Maryland's win over Duke at home on Feb. 16 was its first over a No. 1 ranked opponent in five years.
Turgeon, who came to College Park after directing Texas A&M to four consecutive appearances in the NCAA Tournament, led Maryland to a 17-15 record in 2011-12. At A&M, he posted a 97-40 record in four seasons and was named the Big 12 Conference Coach of the Year in both 2010 and 2011. He is the only coach in Big 12 history with at least 24 victories in each of his four seasons.
Turgeon is 309-202 through 16 seasons overall as a head coach. In seven years at Wichita State, he built the Shockers into a power in the Missouri Valley Conference, earning the league title and an NCAA Sweet Sixteen appearance in 2006. In that NCAA Tournament, Wichita State beat Seton Hall and Tennessee before losing to eventual Final Four participant George Mason.
Five of Turgeon's former players are currently playing in the NBA: Gal Mekel (Dallas Mavericks), Donald Sloan (Indiana Pacers), Khris Middleton (Milwaukee Bucks), DeAndre Jordan (Los Angeles Clippers) and Alex Len (Phoenix Suns).
He went 128-89 at Wichita State (2000-07), posting the third-most wins in school history. The Shockers went to three straight NITs from 2003 to 2005 in addition to the 2006 NCAAs, the first time WSU had four straight postseason appearances in 40 years.
He began his head-coaching career at Jacksonville State, going 17-11 in his final season there (1999-2000) after going 8-18 in his first year.
Turgeon was an assistant at Kansas for five seasons, first under Larry Brown (1987-88) and then under Roy Williams (1988-92). The Jayhawks made the NCAA Tournament in four of those seasons, winning the national championship in 1988 and finishing second in 1991. KU also won Big Eight titles in 1991 and 1992 with Turgeon on staff.
He was the top assistant under Jerry Green at Oregon from 1992-97 and was an assistant coach under Brown with the Philadelphia 76ers in 1997-98 before taking the head coaching position at Jacksonville State.
A point guard at Kansas from 1984-87, Turgeon was the first player in Jayhawks history to play in four straight NCAA Tournaments. KU went 108-33 under Brown in that stretch. Turgeon served as team captain in his junior and senior seasons, leading the Jayhawks to the 1986 NCAA Final Four.
As a student-athlete, he was selected to the Big Eight All-Academic Team in 1986 and was a Big Eight All-Freshman pick in 1984. He earned a bachelor of science degree in personnel administration from Kansas in 1987.
A native of Topeka, Kan., Turgeon led Hayden High School to back-to-back Class 4A state titles in 1982 and 1983, earning all-tournament honors each year. A first team all-state pick as a senior, Hayden went 47-3 in his high-school career.
In the summer of 2008, Turgeon was inducted into the Topeka Sports Hall of Fame. Turgeon ("TURGE-in") is married to the former Ann Fowler of Chicago, Ill, and they have two sons - William Harris and Leo - and a daughter, Ella.
