I've tried almost every high end and drugstore concealer and I can honestly say this is a great concealer. It goes on creamy , but dries to a powdery finish that's Matt. Great for throwing in your purse for touch ups during the day !!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Love this super creamy concealer. It's very highly pigmented and blends well. I don't like the fact that I have to sharpen this every so often (why not a twist up? seriously, who wants to sharpen a concealer pen?) so one lippy taken off for inconvenient packaging. This would be HG is it came in a twist up stick form.
Other than that, everything about this is lovely. I chose NSA (I'm nc30) and it works well under my eyes and on other areas of my skin that I want to conceal.
Highly recommended. It's also priced very well at around $22 CAD.

I have this concealer in DOD, which is a perfect match for my NC37 skin. I love it so far. It covers everything without looking dry and cakey. I do hate sharpening it, I wish it were a twist up. I use my Sephora brand sharpener, which sucks. Overall, I like it a lot and will repurchase!
I just bought this from Sephora, and so far I'm loving it! The texture is super creamy and matches my skin color perfectly. I just wish that it was a twist up and not a pencil that needs sharpened. I find it a little difficult to sharpen (did anyone else have this problem?) so that's why I knocked off a lippy. But as far as concealer quality, I think it's top-notch!
More reviews by CandyFlossSkye
I've been using this particular concealer (shade CIA) for months now and I can hardly fault it. It has a nice, creamy consistancy, applies to the skin smoothly and lasts me nearly all day without having to re-apply.
I have a very pale complexion and although I am using the lightest shade Urban Decay has to offer, I personally wouldn't mind it being a touch lighter. Nevertheless, it covers very well. '24/7' is quite a bold statement to make about a cosmetic product, however, after trailling a countless number of other concealers this one has the most lasting powder...so far!
I really wanted to love this concealor............too bad its going back to Ulta today :(
I'm in my mid30s and have a few teeny wrinkles. My dark circles are not bad but they are definitely there thanks to 2 little kids. I loved that I got a perfect match for my skin and that it was think enough to cover my dark circles BUT other than that this concealor settled into every teeny tiny line and wrinkle and made me look more tired and older. Infact another mom at the bustop asked me if I was sick this morning. So...... yeah this one is not for me. My quest continues
2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I keep this in my desk at work for emergency touch ups, its so fabulous! Sharpening it definitely causes you to waste a bit of product, but so far mine has lasted for about 9 months. I will probably re purchase this, the packaging is very convenient for traveling and the product is great!
2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This concealer is perfect, except for the fact you have to sharpen it. I find that to be a pain in the rear.
Besides that, it helps me cover blemishes perfectly. :)
2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I have pretty bad undereye circles and the coverage of this is not enough to camoflage them. But i found that this is great to keep in your bag or office for quick touchups. It blends easily and dries quickly to a powdery finish. Doesn't settle into my creases and fine lines but will not be great for dry/very dry skin.
I'm about NC25 and i use NSA.
4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
One of the best concealers out there for me! I have it in CIA (the lightest shade) but I just ordered another one in DEA as it is summer now and I'm not that pale anymore.
This concealer is nice, creamy, pigmented, and covers very well. It tends to crease under eyes, though, and that's why I have to use it together with my Hourglass corrective concealer.
Another thing I don't really like is the packaging, I do love the fact that it's a pencil but it's so huge, sharpening it is difficult and a lot of product goes to waste. Other than that, it's lovely.

It's just the girl and me. I am going to cook boneless/skinless chicken breasts in lemon-pepper seasoning. We'll have that with Crash Hot Potatoes and salads. DD is a huge salad eater. She'll put raw broccoli, bell pepper, raw cauliflower, and celery on top, that's in addition to the stuff that comes in the bag as I use the bagged salads all the time.

SWEETWATER, Tenn. (WVLT)--Name calling, nasty Facebook posts, and threatening text messages. This is what school administrators at Sweetwater are dealing with.
Betty Wagers' granddaughter is a beauty queen and a cheerleader for Sweetwater Junior High. She's also a victim of bullying. Betters Wagers says, "It happens about every couple of months. He'll talk to them and then let up and it starts over again."
Girls corner her in the bathroom making her late for class and they make fun of her clothes. Wagers says, "My daughter has to take clothes to school for her cause they're making fun of what she wears."
At Sweetwater, the assistant principal tells me they take bullying seriously. The students even produced a video about it. Assistant Principal Brandi Smith monitors video from cameras throughout the school. Brandi Smith says, "There's a case manager for each and every case and then the principal and I take actions as needed."
Betty wants to raise awareness about the problem. She's taking her fight to the hallways herself. Wagers says, "I talked to the principal and he said he wouldn't mind if I got parents to come to the school during the day. They'll try to control the halls and during lunch break when they change classes."
Smith says it's a problem she sees at least twice a month, and it's only getting worse with social media and cell phones. While some bullies will stop once they realize their actions are hurtful, she says others simply have to be removed from school.

Baked polenta with roasted vegetables [Vegetarian]
Jaymi's Notes:
I've been looking for ways to cut back on wheat and eat more gluten-free options, so this baked polenta seemed like a great option as a substitute for a traditional lasagna, a favorite in this house. Anything loaded up with roasted vegetables is worth a try!
However, buying corn products can also be troublesome, as buying organic and non-GMO means a lot of label-reading. Luckily, I found a great option in a local market. It is an organic Floriani Red Flint, a variety that was near extinction but re-discovered a little over a decade ago and is now grown in organically in Lodi, CA -- a relatively short distance away. Just the story of the source of this polenta alone made the bake a more interesting adventure. Plus the fact that it is grown fairly locally, milled fairly locally and distributed by a local company means it was a perfect option for this recipe.
Everything about this recipe is easy. The only trick is patience after it comes out of the oven. It needs to sit for awhile to let the polenta settle and firm up at the bottom. Cut into it too soon (like I did in my impatience to taste it) and you'll get a bit of a runny mess. So definitely do as step 5 says and let it sit for at least 10 minutes. Don't worry -- it'll stay hot. And the leftovers the next day -- wrapped in parchment paper and foil and heated up in the oven for about 20 minutes -- are just as delicious as when first baked.
More on The Cooking Project.
Kelly's Recipe:
I saw a recipe on the website Two Peas & Their Pod for a baked polenta which sounded like a perfect dinner for a cold night. I made quite a lot of changes to the recipe, but I'd like to credit them for the inspiration. You should also make free with this recipe, using whatever vegetables you like. Eggplant, zucchini, mushrooms, swiss chard or kale would all be great additions.
I added some capers and olives for a bit of piquancy. I made my tomato sauce from scratch, using my home canned tomatoes and some tomato paste and lots of garlic, but use whatever you like best. This made quite a lot, and we had more than enough for leftovers for lunch today.
Baked Polenta
1 small carrot, sliced
1 small onion, sliced
1 small red pepper, chopped
1 small bunch spinach, chopped
Drizzle of olive oil
Salt and pepper, to season vegetables
1 cup polenta
3 cups water
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1-2 cups tomato sauce
2 tbsp capers
2 tbsp kalamata olives, sliced
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1. Place carrot, onion and red pepper on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss. Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally. When the vegetables are done roasting, set aside to cool and reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F.
2. In a large pot, bring the water and salt to a light simmer. Slowly add the polenta to the pot, whisking constantly. Once it starts to thicken, trade the whisk out for a spoon and stir until the polenta pulls away from the sides of the pot. Add half of the Parmesan cheese to the polenta and stir to combine. Pour the mixture into a 2 quart greased casserole dish. Top with the other half of the parmesan.
3. Evenly spread the roasted vegetables, capers and olives on top of the polenta. Spread the tomato sauce over the vegetables and top with grated mozzarella cheese.
4. Place the pie in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until bubbly and the cheese is melted and slightly browned.
5. Let rest for about 10 minutes. Cut into squares and serve warm.

Garmin-Asus nüvifone on the way to AT&T?
Garmin's been crowing about the upcoming nüvifone for years, but now two of the new cellphones might be finding their way to these shores. According to a few reliable sources, AT&T will get the nod as the service provider for both Garmin-Asus nüvifone, the Linux-packing nüvifone G60 and the Windows Mobile 6.5-running nüvifone M20.
If you're looking for a Garmin-packing navigation device that also functions as a cellphone, either one of these devices might do the trick. However, it remains to be seen if the much-maligned AT&T will do justice to this navigation powerhouse from Garmin, cripple it like it's done with the iPhone, or render it useless with its second-rate network.

Downsize DC appears to be a Libertarian organization, and like, well, everyone who isn't in the tiny ultra-minority of
The organization hopes to pass a bill which would require every congresscritter to actually read and be aware of the full text of each bill that was presented to them for a vote. Believe it or not, most congresscritters don't read the full text of every bill they're given, and in fact the Republican Rubberstamp Congress of the last six years has frequently taken advantage of that fact to force odious and unrelated amendments, like the UIGEA, onto important bills and into law.
I'm hopeful that Frist and his allies have grossly misplayed their hand here. I'm hopeful that there just aren't enough Bob Jones University graduates in the population to outweigh the rest of us, and I'm hopeful that Frist and his allies pay a serious electoral price with this move.
The fact that liberals, conservatives, libertarians, and formerly-non-political poker players have all united against this intrusive prohibition and its sponsors should mean something, especially at at time when half of the country hates the other half.

Although there is reason to believe that scattered Jews may have been present in Virginia and Maryland as early as 1621, the first acknowledged Jews in North America were twenty-three refugees from the political strife in Recife, Brazil. After being refused admittance to the Spanish-controlled islands of the Caribbean, they landed in New Amsterdam in 1654. With this began the long history of Jews in America. (Hertzberg: 17-19) Their numbers were never large and though they sometimes faced anti-Jewish laws and the open contempt of the more zealous among the Christian community, the few American Jews fared well among the relatively liberal attitudes of Colonial America and the young United States. Either by their own inclination or due to their small numbers, Jews as a group went mostly unnoticed in American society. Historian Jacob Marcus remarked upon their "relatively obscure" status and noted that the "typical Jew ... was not constantly conscious of being Jewish." (Blackwell: 314)
Jews have long been a presence in Indiana and the Old Northwest albeit very small. Two distinct phases and two different types of immigrants characterized Jewish migration into 19th century Indiana. The initial "wave" began as early as the 1760s when Jewish traders, businessmen, and land dealers instrumental in the establishment of early trade routes from the east into the Midwest. (Blackwell: 314)
The first Midwestern Jews were mainly American-born or "English," descendants of the Sephardim who made their way to the English colonies (in 1825 all but 3 of the known immigrant Jews in the Old Northwest were of "English" origin). They headed west for the same personal and economic reasons as any other immigrants. It was this scattered group that formed the core of Jewish "settlement," which was often highly mobile and seemingly disinclined to set out deep roots in any single place. (Wimberley: 9; Hertberg: 90)
This pioneer group was almost exclusively male. Long accustomed to being a distinct minority, few seemed to carry their faith on their sleeves. Many rather rapidly assimilated into the dominant "American" society, giving up many or all aspects of Jewish culture. This was partially the result of the paucity of other Jews in the area, but was also in keeping with the assimilationist tendencies of many of these early immigrants. A great many married outside their faith, again a result of there simply being few, if any, Jewish women nearby. (Blackwell: 314-317; Wimberly: 2)
Several early Jews rose to prominence in Indiana. Moses Henry and Isaac Levy served George Rogers Clark's effort to wrest the west from the British, Henry as a liaison with Native Americans, Levy as a physician and victualer. Samuel Judah, an eastern-born, Rutgers graduate, became a political force in Indiana. Emigrating to Indiana in 1818, Judah initially lived in Merom, but soon moved to more thriving Vincennes, where he began a long legal and political career. Embracing Andrew Jackson and the Democratic cause, although he later became a Whig, he served six terms in the Indiana House, eventually being selected Speaker. He was an early promoter of internal improvements and incorporated the Lawrenceville Plank Road Company. Like many of his brethren, Judah strode quickly onto the assimilationist path, marrying a Christian woman and raising their eleven children in her faith.
Other Jews moved more anonymously through the Midwest. Coming as peddlers and traders they moved throughout the region, often settling in the growing river towns. Cincinnati, Louisville, and St. Louis attracted Jews along with other immigrants. In Indiana, Madison, and Vincennes all had Jewish settlers by the mid-1820s. Rising Sun's Jewish community was established in 1824. Terre Haute may have had Jewish settlers as early as 1818 and Messrs. Jacob & Levy owned a store there in the mid 1820's. (Karp: 2-3; Wimberly: 5-6)
But adding up all the Jews in the Midwest would not have been a time-consuming task. Their numbers small, their fields of endeavor limited, their gender the same, the early Jewish settlers presented a rather one-dimensional portrait of Jewish life and character. The vagaries of life in general and events in Germany in particular would soon change all that, and spark the flow of the second "wave" of Jewish migration to the Midwest.
The early 19th-century migration of German-Jews to the United States played a "decisive role in the formative period of American Jewry." (Barkai: xi) The Jews who left their homes in Germany to seek their shining vision of America migrated for many of the same reasons as their non-Jewish countrymen. The seeking of better lives, better economic conditions, and more freedom fueled a "migration fever" among Germans in general. Jews came to the United States for those reasons-- and others.
The 250,000 Jews within the borders roughly equivalent to those of modern Germany often found themselves living in difficult conditions. They faced open, sometimes virulent anti-Semitism, strictures on their economic activities, general repression, and a legally mandated inferior status. The economic condition of German Jews was often uncomfortable and difficult. Attempts were made to shut them out of their traditional, and often successful, trades. Their precarious economic condition, as well as social and legal restraints was the catalyst for immigration to America. There is considerable dispute about the number of German Jews to emigrate to America, but a figure of around 85,000-100,000 seems accurate. (Hertberg: 106) Jews were not usually allowed to just leave an area. In many cases they had to obtain a permit to emigrate. In some cases they had to pay a tax of 10% on their assets or complete compulsory military service. Sometimes, emigrants had to save for years or sell off their assets to raise funds for the journey. Between 1825 and 1844, 99% of those travelling to America had only 100-500 florins for their travel expenses and to begin their new American lives. (Rohrbacher: 152)
The coming of German-Jews was one of the three decisive factors, which transformed "Jewish life in Indiana." With them came traditions that sparked the other two factors: the establishment of successful Jewish businesses and the triumph of the reform tradition. (Wimberly: 7) Indiana and Ohio became one of the first states west of the Alleghenies to host permanent Jewish communities. (Blackwell: 316) If one "image" could be said to represent this earliest settlement phase, between 1825-1835, it would be the solitary Jewish peddler, who, on foot, horseback, or wagon, plied the rutted roads of the state in search of customers, with one eye on the present, the other seeking a future. Their "career" pattern was to peddle for a few years and then open a store. Then they would send for family members remaining in Germany. (Hertberg: 106)
This second era lasted from 1835 until at least the Civil War. It was the period in which families began to migrate. This, in turn, led to the change in settlement patterns and the character of Jewish "culture" in Indiana. The changeover to family immigration corresponded with the change in the demographic makeup of German outmigration as families began to transplant themselves whole to America. By the mid-1840s, Jews were establishing themselves in towns all across Indiana. Richmond, Terre Haute, Lafayette, and Fort Wayne became the homes to Jews. Areas that previously did not contain enough Jews to even form a minyan, established congregations, as in Fort Wayne which saw the formation of Indiana's first formal Jewish congregation in 1848. (Blackwell: 316)
Over this period many of the peddlers or other new arrivals plunged into commerce. They gave up the road for Main Street, opening retail stores or wholesale houses. Isaac and Samuel Kahn were merchants in Bloomington and Louis Frohman operated a dry goods store in Rushville. Men like David Klein in Lafayette and the Gimbel brothers in Vincennes made the successful transition to respected businessmen by opening general stores. (Wimberly: 8-9; Blackwell: 316)
The greatest contribution of German-Jews was to Indiana's Jewish cultural and religious life. With sufficient numbers to form a "community," intermarriage and assimilation decreased. Initially, the practice of the Jewish religion may have involved little more than keeping the Sabbath light in their houses. However, over time small groups began to gather in an individual's home to celebrate High Holy Days like Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. The German-Jews adherence to Reform Judaism (which allowed modifying the Law to meet modern conditions) allowed them to adjust to "American cultural patterns" and reformism's "allegiance to religious liberalism broke.... assimilation." From this point congregations were formed and Jewish self-help groups like burial associations and funds for widows and orphans grew. (Blackwell: 317; Wimberly: 9)
The strength drawn from ever increasing numbers allowed the Jews to feel like a community and carry on traditions, like the first Jewish marriage performed by a rabbi in the state in 1849, the year that Ernestine Wehle married Max Abeles in Madison. The first Jewish Congregation in the state, Achduth Vesholom, was formed in Ft. Wayne in 1848 with 26 charter members. The membership grew until, by 1854, they called their first rabbi and by 1859 converted a German Methodist church into an impressive synagogue. Evansville's first congregation, formed in 1857, grew to such numbers that they constructed a 600-seat temple. (Weinburg: 6, 22; Rudolph: 348-349)
It was Indianapolis, however, that was destined to become the center of the Jewish population of the state. But the community that was to be the home of more than 40% of Indiana's Jewish population grew very slowly. The first Jews to the city were Alexander and Sarah Franco and Moses Woolf. Seven years after their arrival, 14 Jewish men gathered on November 2, 1856 to approve the constitution and by-laws of the Indianapolis Hebrew Congregation. Shortly thereafter another 31 men approved them. Many were merchants, but there were also physicians, a druggist, an optician and the deputy clerk of Marion County among them. They were a mixed lot, life-long US citizens and a few recent immigrants, married and single. Among them were 6 sets of brothers. But most were young, in their 20's and 30's. A vibrant Jewish community had begun to take shape. The congregation met in temporary quarters for 2 years until finally acquiring a room in the Judah Block. Some say that the Christian son of the influential Vincennes lawyer Samuel Judah felt such pride in his Jewish heritage that he rented the group a room at a discount. Whatever the reason, the Indianapolis Hebrew Congregation found a home. Rabbi Isaac Mayer Wise of Cincinnati formally dedicated the synagogue on October 24, 1858. The next day a celebration took place at Parisette's, a popular local restaurant. Guests included Rabbi Wise, Jews from outside the city, members of the press and the 60 Jewish residents of Indianapolis. The following day the Indianapolis Daily Citizen carried a feature story entitled "Hebrew Festival" In it the reporter described the evening and ended the article by saying "This is destined to become a large church, as our Hebrew population is increasing in proportion with the growth of the city." In fact, the city was so proud of its Jewish population that when the congregation began collecting money to construct their first synagogue, non-Jewish residents also made donations. (Endelman: 8-19)
Originally, the Indianapolis community was nominally orthodox. All though only a small percentage actually supported the synagogue, most kept kosher tables and attended worship on High Holy Days. This was also true in most Jewish communities in the state. By 1862, a more liberal faction seemed to move the IHC towards the Reform movement led by Rabbi Isaac Mayer Wise of Cincinnati. Wise founded the Union of American Hebrew Congregations with a $10,000 donation from Lawrenceburg businessman Henry Adler in 1873. In 1875 Wise founded the Hebrew Union College and by 1880 the influence that Rabbi Wise had on Indiana congregations was very strong. The majority of synagogues around the state followed Rabbi Wise's "Reform fellowship." This was due in part due to the background of most of the Jews in the state at the time and in part due to the proximity of the Rabbi. This was soon to change. (Rudolph: 349)
The wave of eastern European Jewish immigration that began as a trickle in the early 1870's changed to a torrent in the 1880's and the face of Judaism changed in Indiana. These new immigrants were totally unlike their predecessors. Most were impoverished, poorly educated and spoke only Yiddish. Most importantly they were fiercely traditional. There was absolutely no possibility of assimilation into the existing Jewish communities in the state. The Reform faith of the earliest Jewish citizens was completely at odds with the newcomers. To them Reform Judaism was worse than no Judaism at all. (Rudolph: 350-351)
The evolution of the Jewish community in Indianapolis was typical of the happenings statewide. These new immigrants settled in the working class south side, away from the middle-class Jewish community of the city's north side. They were employed as factory workers or street vendors. They followed cultural practices that set them apart. Most importantly, they strictly adhered to their Orthodox faith. Each ethnic community began to found their own congregation. In 1870, the recent Polish immigrants formed a prayer group that became Sharah Tefella. In 1884, the Hungarians organized Congregation Ohev Zedeck and by 1889 the Russian community founded Knesses Israel. The poorest of the south side Orthodox congregations was Ezras Achim, known as the "peddlers congregation" because so many of the city's peddlers belonged there. In 1903, those unwilling to align with the ethnic synagogues or the IHC founded the United Hebrew Congregation. In 1906, a small group of Sephardic Jews settled in the city. Originally from Turkish Macedonia, they spoke Ladino, not Yiddish. These newest immigrants founded Congregation Sephard of Monastir in 1913. (Rudolph: 350-352)
This ethnic alignment repeated itself all over the state. Evansville native and German born Jews founded Reform Congregation B'nai Israel in 1857. The immigrant eastern European citizens established the Orthodox B'nai Mosche in 1873. Finally, the Conservatives, unhappy with either alternative founded Congregation Adath Israel in 1883. (Blackwell: 326) For smaller Jewish communities disintegration rather than growth began. In rural area, villages and towns numbers of Jewish citizens began to decrease. Without the ability to form congregations and the community that accompanied them, Jewish inhabitants left for areas were such things could be found. Established, although small, Jewish communities such as Ligonier and Wabash dwindled away as the 20th century progressed. By the Depression, 80% of Indiana's Jewish population lived in the five largest cities. (Blackwell: 322; Rudolph: 340-350)
Burial and benevolent societies played a significant role in the Jewish communities throughout the state. Women formed societies within the congregations to serve the Jewish community. Evansville's Hebrew Ladies Benevolent Society is typical of such an organization. The members, required to be in good standing in the community, stated their purpose as " benevolence, …mutual assistance …in case of illness and in doing the funeral honors in case of death." (Blackwell: 326) Similar societies were formed in congregations statewide.
Jewish women were also involved in helping the Jewish community outside of their congregations. In Indianapolis, the members of the Hebrew Ladies Benevolent Society were the first to respond to the needs of the impoverished immigrants of the south side. They distributed food and clothing to the needy. Even coal and money were distributed if the weekly household visitor deemed it appropriate. (Endelman: 90) But the overwhelming problems of these new citizens soon overwhelmed the Society. The National Council of Jewish Women, founded in 1896, was organized in the manner of a Progressive social welfare agency. In 1904, Emma Eckhouse led the NCJW in founding the Nathan Morris House in the south side of the city to help the new immigrants adjust to life in America. Here, the Council organized language classes, as well as general education classes, a library, medical services, emergency financial aid and legal aid. At School No. 6, they built a playground for the largely Jewish student body. The Nathan Morris House was the center for recreational activities and entertainments arranged by the Council. (Rudolph: 351-352)
In the 20th century Jewish life in Indiana began to change. After federal legislation restricted immigration from Eastern Europe in 1921, new Jewish immigration slowed. The immigrant population became "Americanized," gained education and job skills, and entered the middle class. Intermarriage between ethnic groups became acceptable as Jews came together. Yiddish faded into the past and ethnic identities blurred. Regional newspapers like the Indiana Jewish Chronicle, established in 1921 and the Jewish Post founded in 1933, focused on the Jewish constituency as a whole, rather than by ethnic or religious differences. Conservative congregations such as Beth El Zedeck, in Indianapolis added another dimension to Jewish faith and community in the 20th century. It was a thriving community that came together to aid their fellow European Jews as they faced a threat never before experienced. (Rudolph: 352-3)

JUNO -- One Alaska man makes as much as $300,000 per month, from an oil well that he drilled himself, in his own backyard. Ready for the bizarre part? He is not the only one.
So forget about digging for gold or trawling for Alaksan King Crabs, Discovery' s newest show chronicles the "high stakes, comical roller coaster ride through the world of wildcat oil drilling."
"'Backyard Oil' is our first foray into the comedy space, and it's comedy at its finest. It's a great sweet spot for us because they are drilling for oil but they happen to be hilarious as well," the show's executive producer, French Horwitz, told FOX411's Pop Tarts column. "It hit the sweet spot for us within the 'redneck' world as well. We've got the fat guy that has a big beard, we love those types of characters, especially guys who are great on-camera, like to have a great time, but also work super hard and have real stakes for what they do."
"Obviously we were relying on these guys to strike oil. It would be a tough show to make if they didn't. We were on pins and needles shooting the first couple of weeks. We wanted to make sure we got the magic in the bottle, and we definitely did," Horwitz continued. "It really is that in some parts of the country, you can poke holes in your front and backyards and get oil and become a millionaire. It's a bit of trial and error, and a little bit of an investment, but you can hit and make some big money."
"Backyard Oil" follows the fortunes of several oil-seeking gentlemen in rural Kentucky: the aforementioned Coomer, a bearded hillbilly name Rascal, a bickering father-son team known as the Page Boys, and Jimmy Reliford and his sidekick Mad Dog.
According to Reliford, the DIY drilling boom is growing so rapidly, the United States may one day not need to rely on foreign reserves.
"The United States is the Saudi Arabia of natural gas, and we need to be drilling here in America, and we need to be drilling here and be independent, and at some point we really could," he said. "There's enough (oil) in North Dakota, Wyoming and Montana, and there is a big rig in Canada. There's enough there that maybe one day we won't need foreign oil."
Reliford says it doesn't take large amounts of money or knowledge to win at the oil drilling game, either.
"Oh anyone can get in here; it doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Here is the cheapest place in the world to drill wells," he added. "People come here from all over just to drill."

City plans to turn 90 green areas in housing areas such as Mustamäe into parking lots, saying that this is the only way to stop motorists keeping their cars on grass, writes Eesti Päevaleht daily.
Deputy mayor of Tallinn Enha Võrk said that the preparations for converting green areas into parking lots will be started already this year, 2012.
By May 1, city planning department will calculate how many parking spaces the plan will finally create.
Before such calculations are made, it is not possible to estimate the final cost of the whole project, explained Võrk.
"It requires a lot of preparation because we need to consider in every individual case the location of existing infrastructure and networks, trees, children's playgrounds, rainwater discharge systems, etc.," said Võrk.
The deputy mayor said that the city attempts to maintain the existing vegetation as much as possible.
"But in Mustamäe we have blocks of houses where green areas are the only possibility for building a parking lot," added Võrk.Under the current plan, if the City builds the parking lot and the apartment society starts to use it, the latter needs to rent it from the City.
The use terms will be agreed in every individual case separately.
If the apartment society builds the parking lot for its own means or by using municipal co-financing from the City's "Backyards" programme, it would not have to pay rent on it.
The land will remain in municipal property.
The City admits that although creating 90 new parking lots in residential districts is a major step towards improving parking in a situation where there are 360 cars per 1,000 residents, it will not be enough.
The municipal parking development plan estimates that, in order to provide sufficient number of parking, it is necessary to build multi-storey parking houses in residential districts.
This is not a new plan because back in 1974 when Väike-Õismäe residential district was being planned, the City proposed to build nine-storey parking houses in the area for a total of 2,400 cars. None of such parking houses was built.

Park Circle is the heart of North Charleston. And it isn't a small traffic circle like you might find in many places throughout the Charleston area, in fact, it's huge. The area within the circle is so big that there is a recreation center, ballfields and open spaces.
The Park Circle area has been revitalized in recent years with many homeowners moving into the neighborhood and renovating the charming post war homes (that's World War II).
And East Montague Steet is now a very vibrant street with new shops, restaurants and bars serving the neighborhood locals along with residents from around the Charleston area. Oh, and the City of North Charleston did a great job with the new streetscape.
