I have been wanting to try this closer to Spring/Summer because I have been using the Cocoa butter scrub for the cold months and i adore it. So at Sally's I was going to get the Cocoa but they were out.
So I got this since I love oatmeal and honey. I use honey in the warmer months on my skin anyway and the oatmeal has always been good to my skin so I thought this would be great to get.
Well for 4$ it is excellent! I really like this scrub. I use Retin A so this is perfect because it removes the dead skin without over scrubbing. In the Spring/Summer I am always more oily. Yet this scrub seems to be keeping my skin soft,smooth, and clear.
I really like the scent and when I use it in the shower i let it sit a bit. When I rinse it's like new skin. It's not rough on the skin either which, is important for me because my skin is very delicate. For the price you get a great amount and it works......luv simple as that!
Would I repurchase totally and I recommend it. It's a goodie:)

This is a godsend! I bought this on a whim at a health store while I was on vacation and was extremely surprised how well it works. It really doesn't smell that great, but you get used to it after a few uses and don't really notice it afterward.
I don't think I've really had a favorite face scrub/wash before I tried this - I was always trying something new because everything I used before was so-so, but with this I know I will repurchase and continue to repurchase. My skin feels so soft and amazing after this! Wow!

I purchased this at Sally's for around $5. Amazing product! I use this before I apply my mint mask. If Im wearing makeup, ill remove my makeup first, cleanse my face with aveeno's ultra calming foaming cleanser and then use this oatmeal scrub. I personally love the st ive's apricot scrub but my skin has been clear so I wanted to check out a scrub that didn't have salicylic acid/benzoyl peroxide. The beads in this scrub are so fine yet they get the job done. I'm not a big fan of the honey scent; it reminds me of baby powder. But if the product works, then It's not a big deal. Definitely would repurchase! :)

Love this brand. Never tried anything from them that I do not like. Honey is great because of its antimicrobial properties and is great at healing acne. Oatmeal is also a wonderful skin care staple. This scrub combines the two in a convenient tube. Great exfoliation, gentle enough for every day, smells awesome, and like all Queen Helene products, easily accessbile and affordable.

So I have been using the st Ives apricot scrub for a long time as a everyday face cleanser but I ran out I was at a family dollar store and saw this scrub, I have always wanted to try but only find them at sallys and i rarely go so I grabbed this instead of the st ives, I already love the mint julep and clay mask so I had high hopes. Well let me tell you this scrub feels so nice on my face and smells nice very natural. When i first used it I had a reddish tint to my face but now after a week or so im noticing my skin looks a little brighter and less dry after using, the st ives was drying me out even though im oily after :/. In the shower i like to leave it in on for a while so the honey it contains does its magic. This is a keeper!!

As other reviewers have mentioned, this smells divine, while not being overly perfumed. This is another reasonably priced skincare product from Queen Helene- a physical exfoliater with little rough beads (I believe pieces of walnut shells) that is meant to slough off dead skin
I hate to bring the overall rating down, but.. this is just ok for me. Everyone's skin is different, but on my acne prone, acne-scarred, bumpy, not-sensitive at all, oily skin.. I was not blown away by any means. I think this would be better for people looking for an extremely gentle exfoliate that won't be irritating. I have been using it regularly and haven't noticed any improvement in my skin's smoothness or a decrease in breakouts. I think I need to hunt for something a little stronger.
It smells delicious: sweet, almond/honey/cookie-dough kinda smell.
Available at most drugstores
Leaves my skin clean and radiant without being drying.
This by far is one of the best natural scrubs I've ever used. Within a couple days you will start to see results. My skin texture and clarity has improved tremendously. The product is not harsh or drying on the skin. I'm pleased with the price and quality.

I was so happy with the other Queen Helene products i have used that I thought i would try the Oatmeal n' Honey Facial Scrub and I am very happy with it! It does remove the dead layer of cells of the surface of your skin and leaves your skin feeling smooth. It smells awesome like honey. It has gentle smell bead scrubbers that nicely exfoliate your skin.
I use this scrub with an exfoliating sponge and it gently cleanses my skin and leaves my face soft and smooth. It's only $3 at my local Family Dollar, however that is the only place i have fond it.
I loved the smell of this scrub, but I don't feel like it did much for my skin. Left a bit of a residue on my skin so would not repurchase.

"Excellent and very quick and easy to make!! "
"This was very good and easy to make. I used the medium barley and let the soup simmer all afternoon. I did have to add more water because it started to thicken too much for my husband's liking. Serve with some freshly baked warm bread....yum."
"This was very good. Very easy to make. I cut the recipe in half and the only thing I would change is by adding more soup. Probably 2 cans for a half recipe. It was a bit dry as was the chicken. Maybe cut the cooking time down a bit as well."
"The only thing I changed was by adding lots more cheese and I added about 1 tsp of cumin and some ground pepper. Very tasty!"
"I am always looking for new ways to cook pheasant without the "dry-out" factor. And this definately does it! Very tasty and easy to prepare! I only used half the artichoke hearts as I wasn't sure that we would like them. They have a bit of a strong flavor and I think would be overpowering if using the whole can. But, we found out we liked them!! ..."
"These potatoes are very good and easy to make! They will become a regular in our house!"
"This is a very good tasting recipe!! However it took 3 batches of the chocolate to make 3-1/2 dozen cups. I was using a regular tablespoon and used only one in the bottom and one over the peanut butter. No excessive chocolate. So get lots of chocolate chips! Also with the first dozen I made little balls with the peanut butter, but it didn't me..."
"This is the best! I used pre-cooked shrimp, substituted broccoli for the onions and used half and half instead of whole milk. Fed three people easily. Excellent!!"

I may getting close to pulling the trigger on buying an urban commuter rig. Something that I can burn some calories with on a quick street grind from out my front door when I don't have the time to drive to the dirt.
The bike will be used by myself and my wife. I want to equip it with CB pedals because that's what I ride on dirt.
My question is:
Are there attachments that will transform a set of Eggbeaters into a platform on one side so that my wife can ride it with confidence while wearing regular athletic shoes?
I've seen these on Shimano pedals, just wondering if it's an option with CBs because I would like to avoid having to change the pedals out when she wants to ride it. Thanks for your input!

Bangor HotelsThe city that inspired many Stephen King novels isn't nearly as scary as you may imagine, and there's a thriving cultural and arts scene thanks to its association with its most famous resident. With a bohemian downtown area full of coffee and book shops, as well as miles of surrounding unspoiled Maine scenery including nature reserves and coastal towns, it's a great vacation spot even if you're not a lover of horror stories. Things to seeBangor Waterfront Pavilion is a large and modern outdoor venue where you can enjoy rock gigs, classical concerts, and a wide variety of cultural events during the warmer months. The venue has a great view of the Penobscot River, and on a balmy evening you can enjoy live music in a picturesque area. Bangor Mall is also contemporary styled, with huge white pillars showing the way to the entrance. In here you'll find over 80 shops and boutiques, including large department stores, and there are a wide range of casual restaurants and fast food outlets set across the mall. The Hollywood Casino at Bangor always has a lively and buzzing atmosphere, with over 1,000 whirring slot machines lit up, and several tables of blackjack, roulette, and other thrilling games. There's also a lounge with live entertainment with the background noise of clinking cocktail glasses, and the venue regularly hosts harness racing events which are a fun and unique way to enjoy betting on the horses. Hotels in BangorThe majority of Bangor hotels are large and contemporary, allowing you to enjoy plenty of extras during your stay. You'll often find hotel features such as indoor pools, restaurants, bars, lounges, fitness centers, and 24 hour front desk services.

Questions tagged with 'grammer'http://www.grammarly.com/answers/questions/tags/grammer2014-12-18T14:15:58ZComposehttp://www.grammarly.com/answers/questions/51789-compose/
 I want to use the word compose in sentence and make it strong gramatically correct:

 Composing music from notes

 or

 Composing notes into music

 or

 Composing notes to music

 or is there another way? If there are more than one correct way please list them.

 Thank you

asked Sep 05 at 06:39 by Kelly, New member

1 answer

 The object of the verb is the thing that you compose. In this context, compose means create. So you can compose music, but you don't compose notes - the notes already exist.

 Without the rest of the sentence, I can't tell if "from notes" is necessary. It really is stating the obvious. There are a limited and certain number of notes. If you were talking about the show Mamma Mia, you might say that the playwright composed a musical from the songs of ABBA.

 need grammer help for "has brought" or Alternative http://www.grammarly.com/answers/questions/49504-need-grammer-help-for-has-brought-or-alternative/
 My question is a about a sentence I formed with in my book. no matter how I seem to word it, it just never comes out sounding right unless I use " has brought" but I know that it is not the correct tense for the sentence. Here is the sentence: The true queen said "for you to offer up your life in order to help me has brought much joy to my heart, but it would never work, for it will destroy you. I have tried to reweight this many times with no luck. Word and spell check will not take this a proper.

asked Apr 23 at 09:11 by allen, New member

 The sentence is wordy and a bit convoluted, but it is dialogue. 'Has brought' is fine here.

 'For' needs to be capitalized, and you need a comma after 'said'.

 The true queen said, "For you to offer up your life in order to help me has brought much joy to my heart, but it would never work, for it will destroy you."

 'Emergent' isn't the word you want. If you're try to determine which is the best, use the word 'best'.

 Which detergent is best?

 Rather than use a question in the title. I would describe what the project does.

answered Apr 12 '13 at 12:11 by Lewis Neidhardt, Grammarly Fellow

 On the other hand, a title can sometimes take poetic license. That means you use a pun or some other play on words. In this case, it is a word close to what you mean that creates a rhyme. For a science fair, I would recommend using both. The title can be shorter & bigger on the sign, to attract attention, and a more correct subtitle can go underneath. I would change the verb to "is" since emergent already indicates changing status.

 American english grammer and speaking bookhttp://www.grammarly.com/answers/questions/10249-american-english-grammer-and-speaking-book/
 Please advice me with some books since I'm new in USA. I thought I would focus on improving speaking. I've started my college, I wrote some research papers. This is my first school in USA. Everything of papers was good except grammer and teachers deducted marks only for grammers. I have completed high school in another country. I usually dont make grammer mistakes for writing small sentences. But, for research papers, I was writing big sentences, so may be I need to learn writing big sentences.

 I know I can just google and find out helpful resources. But, I'm not sure what is good fit for me. I'm not sure if they are more than beginning or the books are old or for are just for kids. This time, I would like to follow one book or one website and finish all the syllabus from the book or the website. Which book would be good fit for me? If you can recommend a book for american spoken english, that would be great too.

 If I just learn small pieces from many websites, I wont be able to understand if I'm done with grammer. If I can finish one great grammer book , I can understand that my grammer is complete. Even, I dont want to use old grammer rules that native people wont like.

 Thanks for your help.

 Robi, you have two separate goals here – improved speech and formal writing. During normal conversation, we do not speak as formally as you will need to understand for writing research papers. Most of us use slang, an informal style, and even incorrect grammar when we speak. If your papers were written as the average native speaker talks conversationally, you would get very poor grades, I'm sorry to say.

 When you are writing your papers, I suggest using as many tools as you can to help you correct any errors. The writing software that you use, such as Microsoft Word, should have some features that you can turn on to check your writing. I copied your three paragraphs into Word and it found more than a dozen errors, and I don't have all of the features turned on. A number of those were the same error, though. You have misspelled "grammar" each time. Grammarly has various software products that can help find errors as well. Remember that software

 programs can only do so much. They can flag potential errors, but it is up to you to determine if a change is needed.

 I believe that improving your skill at speaking English will eventually help you to catch some of your own errors. I recommend reading as much as you can. Novels and blogs of interest might help you with your conversational skills. You will need to read other material that is written formally to help you learn about writing research papers. You definitely have a grasp on the basics of English grammar – much better than many first-time people on this forum. Sanjay has learned a lot since he began participating on this forum. You might consider going through all of the questions that he has asked. (Click on his name, then you will see a listing of all his questions.)

 There are some here who teach English as a second language. I am sure they will have some good advice.

answered Dec 17 '12 at 22:13 by Patty T, Grammarly Fellow

 In my opinion, it is better not to study grammar rules. The best way to perfect your grammar is to repeat the sentence templates over and over again. There are plenty of grammar books available online. Will it help you in improving your language? I don't think so. By learning grammar rules using traditional methods, you are only cramming hundreds of new English words into your brain. I advise you to adopt deep learning. If you learn anything deeply, you won't forget in your life. On the finishing note, speak to the native speaker as much as possible and copy the same sentence and use it in your everyday conversation. I don't know whether experts will agree with my suggestions.

The IRS has published draft 2 of a requirement that will require all e-file tax sites to use Extended Validation SSL Certificates starting January 1, 2009. States the guideline in part,
This requirement applies to Authorized IRS e-file Providers participating in Online Filing of individual income tax returns that collect taxpayer information via the Internet. These Providers shall possess a valid and current Extended Validation Secure Socket Layer (SSL) certificate using SSL 3.0 / TLS 1.0 or later, and minimum 1024-bit RSA / 128-bit AES.
This passage refers to the service that may be offered by sites whereby you can file your taxes directly online from your own computer. The e-file program offers free filing to individual taxpayers with household income under a certain threshhold ($54,000 in 2007) and for-fee filing to any individual. (It also offers filing services to businesses and the self-employed, but those groups are outside this requirement, at least for 2009.) You may recall that online tax scams, including phishing attacks, have run rampant during the past two tax seasons. I believe that's what motivates this decision by the IRS, which seeks to offer e-filing to the populace in a widespread and egalitarian way while minimizing the individual's risk of identity theft.

TillsGeliebte "Sue" (North Wales, UK) - See all my reviews
I bought this on the strength of Adam Nevill's previous novel `Apartment 16', which I found extremely disturbing, and a great horror read. I wasn't disappointed with `The Ritual'.
The book is in two parts. In the first part 4 friends hiking in the Swedish wilderness get hopelessly lost. The sense of menace as they trudge through the damp, densely forested landscape is almost palpable. With a rising sense of panic amongst the four men it seems the harder they try to get out of the forest, the more it wants to keep them there. It made me want to keep looking over my shoulder so I ended up only reading the book in the daytime! What they find along the way and the events that follow set the scene for the second part of the book, which is equally menacing and edge of the seat reading.
Adam Nevill has a way of drawing the reader into the story and assaulting their senses with such vivid and disturbing imagery - what's not to like?!

DR Burden "Horatio" (northumberland, England) - See all my reviews
There's no denying Nevill knows how to create an atmosphere of genuine fear. The first half of this book ramps up the tension and terror as the mysterious beast picks of the group one by one, but once the plot is explained at the midway point and the action shifts from the primal horror of this lost forest, it hits a speed bump and slows down to an uninteresting grind that I didn't really want to finish.
I will keep reading his work, because he's a decent horror writer, but the overall plots and story points need to be worked on, because both The Ritual and Apartment 16 generate some real hide behind the covers fear for the reader, but both seems to bottom out long before the end.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible!,
Miss Matthews "Nicky Matthews" (West Midlands) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Ritual (Paperback)
Having picked up this book in my usual hurry to work, I didn't realise just what I was about to discover. The first Adam Nevill book I have read and it immediately found a place at number 1 on my beloved book list.
I've always loved a good horror story and mostly the ones that play unashamedly on your physce and senses but this is just something that goes beyond that. Every part of your mind is opened to the deep seated fears and horrors within you by taking you further and further into the darkness and by making you realise that it's only the beginning.
This isn't just a horror story though, it goes further than that, yes it scares the hell out of you at times as you can totally find yourself there, the point where he wakes and is being watched by them is just breathtaking stuff of nightmares! But it hows it feeds into your mind, all of the things that you keep locked away and never share with anyone, are all unlocked and brought to the forefront of your mind and it makes you see humankind stripped down to it's very bare bones, physically, mentally and emotionally. It hurts, it scares, it awakens and it fills you with the thought of life and death and all thats in between. At times I cried at the sheer raw emotion of it all. It's beautiful.
If you're an avid book reader but not necessarily of horror, please please take time to read this book, it's an outstanding piece of work from an outstanding talent.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great horror adventure,
I've read the book and also read some negative reviews.
As someone who ventures frequently in the mountains I could totally identify with the characters and how they must felt. Nevill does a good job giving the feeling of the dense forest, the isolation of the place and the helplessness of been so far away from civilization and help.
The book is a journey, and as such it must be seen. It is not an action book, and if someone anticipates something like that, then this is not the book for him. Someone mentioned a long ending, but it's all part of the story, part of the journey. Cutting short would spoil the adventure and all the previous chapters spent describing the hell the four guys went through.
Were they unprepared? Yes, they were, but you know, this happens in real life. Many times I had with me people in the mountains that would be unfit, but took them with me just because they were so excited about it. This is life. You cannot exclude a friend from an activity - right or wrong, this is a reality.
For me, Nevill's book was a great reading, and kept me company for many nights. I didn't want it to end.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Superb Horror Thriller,
William Mason (England) - See all my reviews
A group of four old friends (all men), who first met during their university days, go hiking in the Scandinavian wilderness. Two of them have not prepared for the challenging hike and are soon in physical difficulties. Life has moved on for all of them with wives, kids and careers. They decide to take a short-cut through a forbidding forest, and unsurprisingly, they get hopelessly lost. The first half of the book had me thinking of it's likenesses with Stephen King's The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon. In the fashion of Hansel and Gretel, they stumble across a creepy old house, which they think will be their salvation from the hostile elements, but which actually harbours a terrible ancient secret. Lurking in the forest outside is something very skilled in the art of hunting (much like the unseen predator in the equally brilliant The Terror by Dan Simmons). The second half of the book is about the battle for survival between the four men and the ancient entity outside which wants to prey on them. The four characters, by and large, are likeable, and as you get to know them, you feel increasingly engrossed in their worsening situation. The author very skilfully uses a lot of daunting and menacing imagery, and he deploys some very vivid nightmare sequences, which add to the sense of pending catastrophe for the lads. The pace of the book is rapid, and the descriptive passages about the wilderness are excellent. What adds significantly to the strength of the book, is that the author keeps you constantly guessing about what will happen to the men, it is never predictable. Just like The Terror by Dan Simmons (which I review elsewhere), this gem of a novel takes the rider on a seriously scarey rollercoaster ride.

Chloe (Berkshire, England) - See all my reviews
So pleased I stumbled across The Ritual! I struggle to find horror writers that are as chilling as Mo Hayder but I've finally found one in Adam Nevill. I recommend reading late at night for maximum effect - I'm not easily scared but The Ritual had me listening out for a creak or bump in the middle of the night. Or was it a hoof?.... Am looking forward to getting my hands on his first two books.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nevill Just Gets Better,
If you go down to the woods today, whatever you do, heed this one warning: don't take The Ritual with. It'll scare the sense of adventure right out of you.
Hot on the heels of last year's smash hit horror Apartment 16, rising star Adam Nevill returns to wreak havoc on your dreams once more - and on career-best form, for The Ritual is superb. It is from start to finish a far more ambitious book than its predecessor, for the larger part a substantially more effective one, and wreathed throughout with such wonderfully evocative exposition as to engender an atmosphere equal parts awful and exquisite.
But let's meet the gang.
Our main man, Luke, is in truth a bit of a layabout. Having bounced from job to job back home, and woman to woman - but of course - he looks back on his years at Uni, when he shared a Birmingham bedsit with Hutch and Dom and Phil, as "the best days of his life. Of all their lives, he liked to think." (p.45) But that was lifetime ago, and though he and Hutch have kept in touch, hiking together all their adult lives, Luke fears he's grown apart from Phil and Dom... or else them from him. He's right to be afraid.
One drunken night at a wedding reception, the former flatmates plot to renew their acquaintance. Six months later, they meet together in Sweden, to tramp and camp in the pristine wilderness of the North. All too soon, however, tensions begin to flare, and it becomes apparent that neither Phil nor Dom are fit enough to blaze the trail our dab hands had planned. A short-cut is negotiated, through a forest a ways away from the beaten track. The boys go "off piste," where "there are no trails." (p.9)
Bad move.
Because something is waiting for them in the woods. Something so horrific none of them can even begin to conceive of the harm it must mean. Something "from times before symbols and languages could depict such things that hunted and meant murder." (p.208)
The unremitting wilderness of sub-Arctic Sweden is of course a landscape far removed from the luxury London apartments of Adam Nevill's last effort, and it is a grand conjuration indeed; grand and quite, quite terrifying. Luke and his cronies of old quickly find themselves lost in a world stood still, utterly apart from all we can comprehend, and therein the unknowableness of the night, and the horrors it could hold, come front and centre.
Rather too front and centre, as it happens, for in the last act the evil is exposed and explained, and unmasked, the thing loses much of its darkly sparkling lustre. Come to that, the entire last third of The Ritual marks an abrupt about-turn in tenor and in tone so sustained that it serves to dispel the massing thunderheads of terror and tension Nevill so delicately evokes in the early-going. Without getting all spoilery, the aforementioned evil, as it happens, turns out to be "inevitable, relentless and predictable. Imaginative, he'd give it that much, but soulless." (p.341)
That said, the sense of place Nevill establishes in The Ritual is simply excellent; to a one, his characters are naturalistic, and easy to believe in; and the horror that haunts them, before it is so rudely revealed, is truly a chilling thing. Thus, The Ritual can only come highly recommended. It has its faults - foremost amongst them the profoundly unhelpful compulsion to explain what should by all rights be inexplicable and a few lamentably transparent attempts to instil in the reader a pre-existing sense of foreboding (see p.25) - yet these are familiar Achilles heels in horror, and it is in the final accounting tremendously easy to overlook the selfsame issues the genre's grandmasters still stumble upon in an author with such promise and talent and ambition as England's answer to Stephen King, Adam Nevill.

2.0 out of 5 stars Painfully Drawn-Out,
C. Gordon - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Ritual (Paperback)
This book was painfully drawn-out. I was riveted at the beginning when the lads were lost in the dense forest but then how many times do we have to hear that they are lost, wet, cold and hungry, or should have gone this way instead of that... And then there was the 100 page ending - repetitious cycles of going upstairs downstairs inside outside - and unbearable contemplations of 'should I have done this or should I have done that'. By the time I made it to the end I wished I hadn't bothered.
Read Deliverance instead. Humans are much scarier.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly enjoyable, scary, intelligent horror novel.,
I have had some nightmarish experiences in the Scandinavian wilds in my youth. Hiking trips across mountain ranges/fjords like small oceans/food that will inspire nightmares... Luckily though, it was nothing as bad as those unfortunate souls in Adam Nevill's latest supernatural horror offering The Ritual. Anyone picking up and reading The Ritual can rest assured though, as nightmarish, ancient horror aside: you're in for a treat.
Nevill's earlier two novels, Banquet for the Damned, and personal favourite Apartment 16, are proof of his credentials as a top-flight horror author. They're also chilling reads, and evidence too of Nevill's knowledge not just of writing ability - but something else other horror authors should take note of - an equally strong knowledge of the horror and supernatural genre, of what has gone before. With his knowledge, he builds and crafts something new, something scary, and something that will entertain those out looking for more than just the pulp-horror read (though there's nothing wrong with that either!)
The change of location in this latest novel is key: whereas earlier, more urban locales were highly effective in delivery atmospheric and associated cultural thrills and spills galore, Nevill shows us that he's just as comfortable making us feel ill at east in the isolated, cold and harsh forests of bitter Scandinavian climes as he is the backstreets of London, or small alleys of St. Andrews. Despite the isolation, the vast space, the bad things here are far more in your face, far more brutal. Yet he hasn't forgotten his subtle creeping terrors either. For here he is at home with M. R. James, with Ramsey Campbell and the like, in ability to keep the reader glued from page to another.
Read The Ritual if you want a scary book, dripping atmosphere and well written by an author who knows the genre, and who really wants to entertain (by scaring) his readers. Nevill's one of the best things to happen to British horror in decades, and well worth checking out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Atmospheric and enticing,
I have read 3 of Adam Neville's novels so far and this has been my favourite to date. Another reviewer wrote that 'The Ritual' is like 2 books, and that's true - but the crossover is made very well. The first half is a good atmospheric horror, the second half is an uncomfortable thriller/horror.
I couldn't put it down, I was reading it in bed at first but at about 40% through I left work early and came home, made a coffee and lay on my bed and read the rest in one sitting.
Loved it, and I recommend it wholeheartedly!

Rajon Rondo would never have interest in playing for Team USA again. Ever.
Many athletes consider representing their country in the Olympics the pinnacle of their careers. But Rajon Rondo has always been lukewarm on the subject, and after leaving Team USA's 2010 World Championships squad under curious circumstances, he never wants to think about playing in the Olympics. Like, ever. (Fox Sports Florida)
Rondo, who is one of the NBA's top point guards and is averaging a league-best 11.3 assists, wasn't one of the 20 players selected in January as finalists for Team USA's 2012 roster in London. And even if another player were to possibly be added, Rondo, 26, said there would be no need to call him.
"I'm not focusing at all on the Olympics. At all. At all," Rondo said before handing out 15 assists in Boston's 115-107 win over Miami, his 18th straight game with 10 or more, the NBA's longest streak in 20 years.
Rondo, who still would be young enough to play in the Games in 2016 or 2020, then was asked if he ever would have an interest in playing in the Olympics.
"No, I don't," he said. "I just don't… Wondering why? I love my summers. I'll leave it at that."
For what it's worth, Rondo said he didn't get cut from Team USA. He "decided to leave" because he was "homesick."
But Rondo is a stubborn dude, and I imagine whatever happened with Team USA left him with a sour taste he won't forget. To refresh your memory in case you forget how Rondo left Team USA: He started the first few exhibitions, played poorly against Lithuania, received a DNP-CD against Spain, and then reportedly "withdrew" from the team due to family matters, after Coach K said the following about his rotation:
"It's not so much what Rajon has to show, it's what our team needs," Krzyzewski said, according to the Boston Globe. "We've found a good lineup, and the international game is so different from the NBA game, you can ask any of these guys. Part of it is to make sure that we try not to have two non-shooters out on the court, and there's the physicality, too.
"Derrick [Rose] right now being with Chauncey [Billups] is a good [combination], and Stephen [Curry], he provides a different thing, because if they are going under [screens] and they keep going under on him, then he has a 3. So it forces another team to change the way they defend our team. So it's things like that, and how we feel strategy-wise what'll be best for the team."
I'm fine with Rondo never playing for Team USA again. He'll get to use the offseason to work on his game rather than try to win gold medals.

Suspension erased for boy playing 'cops and robbers' at school
The mother of an 8-year-old Osceola County boy who was suspended for pointing his finger like a gun said the suspension has been erased by the district.
Bonnie Bennett said the suspension is now marked as an excused absence.
Bennett said her son, Jordan, was playing "cops and robbers" at Harmony Community School in September when he was suspended.
According to the school's paperwork, the boy was suspended for "TRL," which is making a threat to another student.
The school declined to comment on the specific evidence because of confidentiality policies.

Mending Fences In AKSUSubmitted by James Uzondu on Wed, 11/09/2011 - 11:56
For about one year now, the Akwa Ibom State University, AKSU, the 34th state university in Nigeria, was alleged to be enmeshed in power crisis. The principal characters in the brawl were said to be the pro-chancellor and chairman of the institution's governing council, and members of the university senate led by the vice chancellor. The scuffle, Newsworld gathered was that Okon Eminue, an associate professor of political science, who is the pro-chancellor, had been exercising arbitrary powers since becoming the chairman of the governing council.
Nigeria And A New Educational DirectionSubmitted by James Uzondu on Mon, 10/31/2011 - 11:08
Hope seems to be coming alive again for the Nigerian educational system with the federal government enthusiastically pledging to improve the sector. The latest assurance came in response to discredit against the system by Nigerians and particularly, members of the academia working in the universities.
An Unending CrisisSubmitted by James Uzondu on Mon, 10/31/2011 - 09:42
Barely six months after its vice -chancellor, VC, was sacked based on the recommendations of a visitation panel, the Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma in Edo State is again engulfed in the trenches of crisis. The VC was removed over his inability to supply needed information about the university's total population of staff and students, revenue and expenditure profile and liabilities: a move which was viewed by the government as indicative of a corrupt system.
Gone With GhaddafiSubmitted by James Uzondu on Mon, 10/24/2011 - 09:24
In 1997 when the dethroned Libyan leader, Col. Moummar Ghaddafi, visited Kano, northern Nigeria, his host and late Head of State, Gen. Sani Abacha had treated him to retinue of armed security personnel on a visit to Friday Muslim Juma'at prayers. Besides the prayer session, which witnessed the full presence of many Muslims in the city, it was regarded as a mark of special privilege for the visitor, and Ghaddafi too felt honoured when he delivered a public lecture.
Killing CRUTECHSubmitted by James Uzondu on Mon, 10/17/2011 - 08:25
he Cross River State College of Education was excised from the state University of Technology, CRUTECH in 2008. Since the excision of the institution from the university, the college has not known peace. Academic activities in the college have severally been disrupted due to industrial action by staff of the institution.
Defrauding StudentsSubmitted by James Uzondu on Mon, 10/10/2011 - 12:27
Students at the University College Hospital, UCH, Ibadan are drumming for war. Their grievances are based on alleged arbitrary school fees increment. For four straight years, the leadership of the community health officers' programme at UCH has been pushing up the school fees to the ceiling. The officially recommended school fees for students who study for this course is N35,000. But in 2008, the coordinator of the community health officers' programme, Mrs. F.B. Ibitoye was said to have collected N77, 000 per student. By 2009, the school fees had been moved up to N88, 000 per student.
Justifying The ASUU StrikeSubmitted by James Uzondu on Mon, 10/03/2011 - 16:07
For members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, University of Uyo Branch, ASUU-UUB, it was more than reasonable to have been part of the one week warning strike embarked on nation-wide by lecturers in government-owned universities. Even so, it was a precursor to call government to order on the quality of education that has not shown any sign of improvement since the cry of its decay began.
Introducing New School CurriculumSubmitted by James Uzondu on Mon, 09/26/2011 - 07:05
The federal government has said that the introduction of the new school curriculum was to include subjects such as Information Technology, Wood Work, Craft Art, and more which in a sense, should guarantee development, self-employment and professionalism among secondary school leavers in the nearest future.
Publishing Conflicting ResultsSubmitted by James Uzondu on Mon, 09/12/2011 - 08:55
The West African Examination Council, WACE, on August 10, released results of Senior School Certificate Examination conducted in four West African countries including Nigeria. As it were, the results had revealed that a total of 1,540,250 final year students in secondary schools in Nigeria wrote the examination. Of that number, 1,460,003 had their results fully released and published. 80,247 results were pending, arising from "sins" committed by the affected candidates; while 81,573 results were withheld for various examination malpractices.
A Failing ProjectSubmitted by James Uzondu on Mon, 09/12/2011 - 08:26
Abel Emmanuel, 18, was arrested by police in Imo State for armed robbery and remained in detention for a period of 18 years, while waiting for trial that never saw the light of day. Police report in the case was inconsequential to nail the suspect. According to the Open Society Justice Initiative, which handled the case, the alleged case of armed robbery did not exist even as there were no witnesses to the crime. The only facts the police had were Abel's statement and his denial of the crime.

Santa Fe 3751 is a 4-8-4 steam locomotive that was originally owned and operated by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway. It is located in the Central City East neighborhood of Los Angeles, California and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Built in 1927 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works, 3751 was Baldwin's and the Santa Fe railway's first 4-8-4. It had a 5 chime freight whistle mounted on it. Tests showed that 3751 was 20% more efficient and powerful than Santa Fe's 4-8-2 3700 class steamer, which at the point was Santa Fe's most advanced steam locomotive. In 1936, the engine was converted to burn oil. Two years later, the locomotive was given a larger tender able to hold 20,000 gallons of water and 7,107 gallons of fuel oil. 3751 was also present at the grand opening of Union Station in Los Angeles on May 7, 1939 pulling the Scout, one of Santa Fe's crack passenger trains as it arrived from Chicago. It was the first steam locomotive to bring a passenger train into LAUPT. In 1941, along with other 4-8-4s, 3751 received major upgrades including: 80-inch drive wheels, a new frame, roller bearings all around, and more. That same year, it achieved its highest recorded speed at 103 mph. It continued to be a very reliable working locomotive until 1953, when it pulled the last regularly scheduled steam powered passenger train on the Santa Fe to run between Los Angeles and San Diego on August 25, this was its last run in revenue service. After that, it was stored at the Redondo Junction, California roundhouse in Los Angeles for four years before it was officially retired from the roster by the railroad in 1957, and in 1958 it was placed on display in San Bernardino.
In 1981, the San Bernardino Railroad Historical Society was formed with intentions of restoring and operating 3751. Four years later, they achieved their goal when 3751 was sold to them with the condition that the SBRHS must restore and operate the locomotive. In 1986, 3751 was moved from its display to California Steel Industries, where it was restored at a cost of $1.5 million. In 1991, it operated for the first time in 38 years, running with two Santa Fe FP45s and 16 passenger cars on a four day trip from Los Angeles to Bakersfield. Since then, it has done countless excursions and special trips and gone to many events.[2]
The locomotive is currently owned by the San Bernardino Railroad Historical Society, the organization that performed the restoration.
August 1992 had 3751 on its largest assignment so far, as the engine ran the entire route of Santa Fe's Transcon route between Los Angeles and Chicago with three and later two Santa Fe C44-9Ws. The engine spent 18 days traveling over 2,300 miles (3,700 km) in both directions.
In April 22–23, 1995, 3751 was displayed in the Riverside Sunkist Orange Blossom Festival in Riverside, CA. Its original 5 chime freight whistle was replaced with a 6 chime passenger whistle on April 21, before the excursion.
On June 1999, the locomotive participated in Railfair 99. It pulled a passenger train mixed with a boxcar train on the way there. 3751 was helped by BNSF Dash 9 4419 to and from Railfair 99.
In October 2000, 3751 was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[1]
A second locomotive of the same class has also been preserved, Santa Fe 3759 in Kingman, Arizona. It too is listed on the NRHP.
In May 2001, 3751 was displayed at Fullerton Railroad Days in Fullerton, California.
In August 2002, the 3751 ran an Amtrak excursion from Los Angeles to Williams, Arizona to participate in the 2002 National Railway Historical Society Convention. The excursion ran over Metrolink, BNSF Railway, and Arizona and California Railroad tracks. The engine also ran on the Grand Canyon Railway for an excursion on the former Santa Fe's "Grand Canyon" line. The event including double and tripleheading with Grand Canyon Railway's own steam engines.
In 2008, 3751 ran on the Surf Line for two excursions from Los Angeles to San Diego. The first, on June 1, was a public excursion which left 30 minutes late due to a delayed Metrolink train and arrived in San Diego 2 hours behind schedule, mostly caused by the single-track railroad south of Mission Viejo station. The excursion made the locomotive the first steam locomotive to run in the Surf Line since the 1976 American Freedom Train, it was also the first steam powered passenger train to make the run between Los Angeles and San Diego since 3751 last traveled the line in 1953. The train was turned at Miramar Wye, 15 miles north of San Diego station. The second excursion was a private car special on September 21. However, a trespasser was struck near Mission Viejo, delaying all trains up to 3 hours. The excursion passed the cleared location at around 9:00 PM.
In May 2010, the locomotive returned to the Surf Line for a third excursion from Los Angeles to San Diego, pulling eight Amtrak cars and a few dome cars, attracting large crowds. In order to alleviate issues with turning the train, the excursion was split over two days: south to San Diego on May 1, and north to Los Angeles the following day. This proved successful, as 3751 was on time into San Diego the first day and sustained only normal delays northbound, thus proving the excursion to be the most successful yet.[3] The weekend after the trip to San Diego had the engine in San Bernardino for "National Train Day" as well as the 2010 San Bernardino Railroad Days festival. It made a run to San Bernardino for the Railroad Days Festival again the following year in April, 2011.
In May, 2012 3751 powered a six day excursion from Los Angeles to Williams, Arizona to celebrate the state's Centennial. As part of the excursion a special roundtrip doubleheader to the Grand Canyon and back was run with 3751 and Grand Canyon Railway's former Chicago Burlington and Quincy 2-8-2 Mikado 4960. The train also operated over the Arizona and California Railroad on the way to Williams and on the return trip to Los Angeles. Three weeks before the trip to Arizona the engine also made the trip east to attend the San Bernardino Railroad Days Festival for the third year in a row.
In media[edit]
3751 was also featured in the There Goes a... episode "There Goes a Train" footage used in "Route of the Chief".
Santa Fe 3751 can also be briefly viewed near the end of the 1952 film Boots Malone starring William Holden, and Harry Morgan.
3751 was also featured in the 1950 Clark Gable-starred film Key to the City and the 2001 film Pearl Harbor.

Immigrant Assimilation, Trust and Social Capital
by James C. Cox, Wafa Hakim Orman
(July 2010)
Trust is a crucial component of social capital. We use an experimental moonlighting game with a representative sample of the U.S. population, oversampling immigrants, to study trust, positive, and negative reciprocity between first-generation immigrants and native-born Americans as a measure of immigrant assimilation. We also survey subjects in order to relate trusting and trustworthy behavior with demographic characteristics and traditional, survey-based measures of social capital. We find that immigrants are as trusting as native-born U.S. citizens when faced with another native-born citizen, but do not trust other immigrants. Immigrants appear to be less trustworthy overall but this finding disappears when we control for demographic variables and the amount sent by the first mover. The length of time an immigrant has been a naturalized U.S. citizen appears to increase trustworthiness but does not affect trusting behavior. Women and older people are less likely to trust, but no more or less trustworthy.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt
My name is Tigger!
Facts about Tigger
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Tiger Striped
- Age: Young
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
Tigger's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Tiny Tigger is playful and cute. He was found in a box outside a gym. All of our kittens are rescued and raised in foster homes with cats and dogs and are spayed, vaccinated, de-wormed, vet checked, litter trained, flea treated and affectionate. Testing is done on the mother cat if she is available at the time the mother is spayed. If there is no mother cat, testing is done on the kittens.
Our adoption fee is $75.00. Adoption application available on our web site at www.DumpsterCats.org.
Other Pets at Dumpster Cats Rescue, Inc.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Tigger, a Kirkwood Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Kirkwood, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Kirkwood.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Kirkwood already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Kirkwood breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Kirkwood paves the way for another one to be saved.
