Sony brought a delectable flavour of romance and reality shows on the tube and the audiences lapped them up. It also lifted the bar for good TV content. Other channels too came up with new ideas and experimented.
IANS lists 10 best shows on the tube:
'Kaun Banega Crorepati': Farmers to teachers, housewives to widows - season five of the popular game show was unique as it put the spotlight on people from various sections of society and from the interiors of the country, allowing viewers to know the real India. Host Amitabh Bachchan's humility and warmth stood out. The craze reached a crescendo when Bihar boy Sushil Kumar won the jackpot of Rs.5 crore.
'Bade Acche Laggte Hai': The show started with the motto that love is ageless and that romance can bloom in an arranged marriage too. The concept appealed to viewers and the TRPs started soaring. The on-screen chemistry of the lead pair - Sakshi Tanwar and Ram Kapoor, who have returned after a long break with a fresh story - made it an interesting watch.
'Kuch Toh Log Kahenge': The original was made on the other side of the border, but the story had such a universal appeal that it wowed fans in India too. The Indian version of Pakistani drama 'Dhoop Kinare', written by Haseena Moin, has hit the tube and guess what? The Mohnish Behl and Kritika Kamra starrer is proving equally good in terms of performances, essence and dialogues. Viewers who were bored with saas-bahu sagas are hooked to it.
'Jhalak Dikhla Jaa: Dancing with the Stars': The dance reality show is not new. This year the fourth season was telecast, but what made it a must watch was Bolllywood Diva Madhuri Dixit's presence in the judges panel along with Remo Dsouza and Malaika Arora Khan. Madhuri's verve and vivacity, 'adas' and 'mudras' mesmerised all and sundry and the show's popularity spiralled to the glory.
'Saas Bina Sasuraal': In most soaps and dramas there is a clash between saas and bahu, but the concept of this show was different. Here a girl marries a guy, whose family abhors women. How she wins their trust and makes a place for herself by sorting out differences and solving issues without bringing in her ego has audiences hooked.
'Bigg Boss': Colors launched quite a few shows, but only 'Parichay' has stood out. Apart from that, the fifth season of their controversial reality show 'Bigg Boss' is getting them the maximum eyeballs. A high dose of drama, disgruntlement and discord is luring viewers and they watch it despite finding it distasteful when some inmates use foul language to show their bitterness towards each other.
'Just Dance': Star Plus struck bull's eye with the maiden season of their dance reality show. If 'Jhalak...' had Madhuri, this one had heartthrob Hrithik Roshan, who made his debut on the small screen as a judge. The Bollywood star's larger than life persona, his phenomenal dancing skills and the connect he established with participants made everyone put on their dancing shoes and enjoy every moment on the show. When he presented eliminated participants with cheques, it just overwhelmed the audiences.
'Maryaada Lekin Kab Tak?': Women's patience and passion, love and hatred, revenge and forgiveness - all this is woven beautifully into this drama that tells the stories of four women bound together by the family thread. The subtlety with which they deal with delicate issues to protect their pride and prejudice makes the show likeable. Despite being a late show, it is a hit.
'Preet Se Bandhi Ye Dori Ram Milaayi Jodi': One of the oldest entertainment channels, Zee TV's major attraction was 'Ram Milaye Jodi'. It has spun an interesting romantic drama between a Punjabi 'kudi' and a Gujarati 'chokra'. The clash of values and lifestyle of two culturally different families keeps the appetite for the show going.
'F.I.R': If you want to have fun, just log on to SAB TV's funny cop drama, in which Kavita Kaushik as inspector Chandramukhi Chautala and her two aides, Gopi and Gulgule, solve cases. It is a laugh riot and one can unwind with the trio's antics.

I had a combo of Radiesse for my jawline and mouth corners and restalyne for my lip lines. It's been almost 24 hours and I have been icing the area. But is there an over the counter med I can take to reduce the swelling? I read something about Zyrtec and Benedryl. Is that helpful?
Is There an over the Counter Med I Can Take to Help Reduce Swelling After Filler Injections?
Doctor Answers (12)
Fillers may cause some swelling that might be reduced by Arnica montana
Benadryl and Zyrtec are antihistamines and not diuretics (or waterpills). Unless you have swelling produced by an allergic reaction related to the release of histamine, then antihistamines are not expected to reduce your swelling. Minimize activity including avoiding bending over at the waist, straining, lifting heavy objects, do ice compresses and consider taking the herb, Arnica montana, which has been shown to reduce the possibility of swelling and bruising. Some recommend bromelain as well.
Web reference: http://www.thenyac.com/fillers/index.html
Restylane absorbs water
After 24 hours I wouldn't be concerned with swelling. Restylane absorbs water. That means you're going to have swelling just from the product working. True tissue swelling can be improved with Benadryl and Zyrtec, as they tend to dry it up. For more significant swelling, we recommend putting patients on an oral steroid (which is not over the counter). In your situation, within 48 hours, I would try Benadryl.
Web reference: http://www.radiessenewyorkcity.com/
We use bromelain for swelling
Bromelain is a pineapple extract, benign, and does well for swelling as long as you take it on an empty stomach. On a full stomach bromelain helps digestion. Ice and bromelain are your best bets.

Swelling after fillers
First and foremost, icing is the most important thing to do to decrease swelling after a dermal filler has been injected. However, many of my patients have had success with using both Arnica and Bromelain after the procedure.
Swelling after Radiesse and Restylane injections
We have our patients use Arnica 12 C after all filler injections including Radiesse, Perlane, Restylane, Juvederm and Sculptra. It's a homeopathic medication that seems to help decrease bruising and swelling after fillers and surgical procedures.
Web reference: http://www.drfpalmer.com
OTC Medications to Reduce Swelling And Bruising After Filler Injections
There are studies suggesting that Bromelain may be helpful to prevent bruising and swelling when taken AFTER an injection procedure. I recommend to my patients that they take Bromelain 500 mg twice daily for three days after facial fillers have been injected. There are no studies, to my knowledge, that Arnica Montana has any beneficial effect what so ever so I do not recommend taking it. Oral antihistamines such as Benadryl and Zyrtec will not help much with the swelling and may make you drowsy. I have never had to use prednisone in any of my patients. The swelling is self limited and the side effects of prednisone are not worth the risk!
Web reference: http://www.dorsetstreetdermatology.com/cosmetic-dermatology/
Prevent swelling and bruising after fillers
It is much easier to prevent swelling and bruising after fillers. After the injection has been performed and the swelling and bruising has occurred, icing may help prevent worsening, but time is the main thing that will help.
To help prevent bruising after fillers or injectables in the future:
- Avoid aspirin, ibufprofin and other medications which cause bleeding (BC/Goody powders, excedrin, etc) for one week before the treatment.
- Make sure you talk to your doctors if you are taking prescribed aspirin, plavix, coumadin or other blood thinners. (Never stop taking a blood thinner without consulting with the doctor who prescribed it!)
- Consider Arnica Montana (or similar product like Sinecch) starting before and continuing after the injection
- Apply cold compresses immediately and often after the injections. I usually recommend packs of frozen peas or corn. Ideally ice 10-15 minutes on, then 10 minutes off. If that isn't possible, ice 10-15 minutes hourly while awake.
This routine will help minimize your bruising and swelling after a procedure or injection. Best wishes, MKB
Is There an over the Counter Med I Can Take to Help Reduce Swelling After Filler Injections?
Ice for the first 48 hrs!
Black and blue ointment has both Arnica and Bromelain. You can also use all the usual Anti-inflammatory!
And Patience :-)
Web reference: http://www.talroudnerplasticsurgery.com/fillers.php
Icing is helpful, and so is time.
Unfortunately, sometimes patience and tincture of time are the best remedies for the swelling that is caused by these treatments. Arnca is completely ineffective so I would not bother with this. I treat a lot of actors and working broadcasters. For these folks, sometimes I will prescribe corticosteroids. However it is also possible to have some remarkably severe reactions to the steroids, so generally these are reserved for critical circumstances.

State: Missouri
Number: HB 1307
Status: CurrentProposed: January 9, 2014 Enacted: September 10, 2014
Link: house.mo.gov...
Topics: Waiting Periods and Forced Counseling
Last updated Sep 11, 2014.
HB 1307 would increase the minimum waiting period before a woman can have an abortion from 24 hours to 72 hours. The bill contains no exception for rape or incest.
The bill would require the Department of Health and Senior Services to create a video that contains all of the information that must be provided to a woman considering an abortion by the physician who is to perform or induce the abortion. The required information is set forth in Mo. Rev. Stat. § 188.027. The bill states that the video does not have to contain the name of the physician who will perform or induce the abortion.
After the law was initially passed by the Missouri legislature, Gov. Nixon vetoed the legislation and criticizing it for being "extreme and disrespectful."(Source.) On September 10, the legislature overrode Gov. Nixon's veto. The law will take effect one month from the date that the veto was overridden.
Companion bill to SB 519.

A nonprofit organization dedicated to making the Twin Cities' streets safer, Sober Car supplies designated drivers to individuals after nights of drinking. Available to reserve via phone or online, the 24/7 service sends two representatives to every client. With permission, the first drives the client and the client's car home; the other follows behind in a Sober Car vehicle to pick up his teammate. Sober Car's friendly, attentive drivers also happily drop off friends, so long as there are enough seat belts per person.
Drink and Drive Intelligently assembles a team of professional designated drivers who keep more than 250 intoxicated drivers off the streets each week. Registered customers can call 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and a duo of well-mannered chauffeurs will arrive within 30 minutes to ferry both customer and car home. While one driver commandeers the customer's vehicle and follows GPS-aided directions, the other follows closely. Once the customer's car is parked, locked, and read a bedtime story from the Kelley Blue Book, the keys are returned to their owner before the drivers head back to base.
The experienced crew at A.C.T. Asphalt Specialties has been installing and repairing asphalt and concrete pavements for residential and commercial locales in the Twin Cities for more than 30 years. Freshly poured asphalt driveways ($3,200–$4,500 on average) smoothly replace predecessors laden with unsightly cracks or paved with untractioned gumdrops.
Ride Man Ride's chauffeurs understand that sliding into the backseat of a Jaguar XJ Super V8 for a ride to a business meeting or a night on the town ups the ante on sophistication. That's why they don three-piece suits that echo the luxury car's sleek façade as they slip behind the wheel, prepared to ferry clients around town in the amenity-stacked vehicle. Passengers can decompress in the car's heated seats and recline to their back's content, or leverage the privacy screen to watch monster-truck-rally marathons on the backseat DVD player without offending the driver. For the digital passenger, laptop tables securely support personal computers to facilitate connection to the car's WiFi or broadcast their own soundtrack through the cabin. A bottle of Fiji water and dual-zone climate control helps passengers to reach the perfect levels of comfort or acclimate their body temperatures to perfectly match those of high kings.
Whether seating pairs or quartets, the whimsical vehicles from Papa Wheelie's Surrey Rental let riders bask in the open air as they trundle along serene paths. Colorful canopies shade pedaling sightseers as they explore downtown Stillwater. Riders may choose to follow the banks of the St. Croix River, taking in the relaxing, melodious sounds of lapping water or glimpsing the dark mirror universe of Wisconsin on its opposite shore.
Capital City Trolleys charters a fleet of vintage-style vehicles and trolleys, ushering up to 20 passengers through New Orleans's historical and picturesque streets. Certified drivers cart revelers to their desired destinations during chartered rentals, cultivating a memorable corporate outing or ride to the airport. For weddings, Capital can transport brides, grooms, and ring-bearing bulldogs around town in a classic 1952 Bentley Mark VI luxury car.

Burt's Bees Almond Milk Beeswax Hand Creme Reviews
Love love love!!!I absolutley love this hand creme...it smells divine, goes on smoothand creamy...absorbs fast and isn't sticky...I highly recommend. — 4 years agovikkisecret | 18 reviews
Not as non-greasy as I would have liked...But really creamy and moisturizing none-the-less. Smells AMAZING as well, I like the packaging (especially the cute little cow on the lid!) even though I could understand why someone wouldn't. My only issue with this (besides it being a tad too greasy for me...) is that the fact that it's in a glass jar makes it a REALLY heavy addition to my already weighed down purse. I'd like to see this in a plastic jar, or maybe some kind of squeeze tube. — 4 years, 2 months agostrawberrytime | 29 reviews
Feel's Nice, A Bit AbrasiveThis hand creme smells DELICIOUS. It really does. I love the scent, but for functionality, it really was okay. I liked the moisturizing benefits I seemed to get, but I can't help but feel like there was probably something harmful in the ingredients as everytime I used this on my hands, I felt a slight stinging/burning sensation. It was really weird, could have been a slight allergic reaction? Anyw...read moreay, other than that if it doesnt burn your skin, it probably will work wonders, feel nice and smell really great! — 4 years, 2 months agoDessai | 14 reviews
First of Their Products Tried, Best One IMOI tried this hand creme in a jar a handful of years ago, and loved its emolliency, easy to understand ingredients, and strong almond scent. Almond and milk ARE my favorite beauty product ingredients! A handful of years later, this product is STILL my favorite of their line, even though they've really branched out into facial care lines (which tend to be too oily, in my opinion). Most people love their lip balms, but I love this hand creme. — 4 years, 7 months agoEmerald_Cut | 14 reviews
softest hand everto start with i live in wisconsin and the winters are intensly cold and dry, i also did all the dishes and alot of cleaning in my house so my hands where always dry chapped and cracking. the product is very creamy and smooth without any chemical smells, when i used it consistently my hands wer always smooth and soft all day, it is well worth its price, its all i would recommend — 5 years, 7 months agotori16 | 2 reviews
I love this product!!!This is one of Burt's greatest products in my opinion! The good: Great ingredients, the smell is WONDERFUL, and it truely softens and moisturizes hands, feet, heels, elbows. It's very rich and thick. A little also goes a long way. The bad: None! I really recommend this product, it's one of the best natural creams out there for the body. — 5 years, 8 months agothefragile7393 | 15 reviews
Softens hard working handsI'm a busy person at my workplace, and I have to wash my hands a lot (I work around hazardous waste). This heavenly scented cream helps my abused hands, elbows and knees. I slap it on at night, and my parts feel like they've been given a new lease on life. Fantastic healthy forgiveness in a jar. LOVE it!!!!!! — 6 years, 2 months agoSaintSalvage | 10 reviews
Amazing!This creme smells amazing! It moisturizes really well, and the best part is that it has an all natural formula. It's a bit greasy and takes a while to absorb, so I usually applied it before bed. When I woke up my hands were super soft and still smelled great. I'd definitely buy it again. — 6 years, 2 months agoobummyo | 26 reviews
DELISHNot only does this product work terrific on dry hands, it smells absolutely amazing. I want to bite my hands after each application. I also love that it's all natural. The price tag seems a high for such a small jar but it lasts quite a while. The fact that they don't test on animals is a huge plus for me. — 6 years, 2 months agodeedles | 30 reviews
Great Quality Product!Smells great! Works even better!!! Melts right into the skin and hydrates... I also apply this on my elbows and knees- softens them right up!!! — 6 years, 3 months agoJD0723 | 37 reviews

The 42nd annual Festival of the Arts will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, April 6, in the Noel Fine Arts Center (NFAC), 1800 Portage St., Stevens Point. The event is free and open to the public.
Festival of the Arts is sponsored by the Stevens Point Festival of the Arts Council and the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point (UWSP) College of Fine Arts and Communication.
Festival of the Arts displays the work of approximately 50 artists, and all of the art will be available for purchase.
The entire court yard of the NFAC will be filled with displays from local artists. People will have the opportunity to meet and speak with the artists throughout the day.
Types of art range from paintings to sculptures and ceramics, from wood carvings to photography and drawing.
The goal of Festival of the Arts is to promote the arts by encouraging art awareness, supporting working artists and contributing to local art education.
Ten works of art will be selected for awards of excellence and one Best of Show. The awards are doled out based on overall quality, not by category.
Last year's winners included Julie Sutter Blair, drawing; Thomas Buchs, painting; Jessie Fritsch, encaustic painting; Sharon Fujimoto, glass work; Brenda Gingles, jewelry; Ilze Heider, fiber work; Bill Lemke, photography; Charlotte Fung Miller, painting; and Joyce Wilson, fiber work. Best of Show went to Alexander Landerman, for a drawing of a hare.
The event receives support in the form of donations from the public and from local businesses. The proceeds go toward advertising the event, providing children's activities for the event and supplying food and refreshment for the artists who participate in the festival.
Funding is also brought in through the annual silent auction of art work donated from participating artists.
Much of the financial support is used for student scholarships, awarded to UWSP students who excel in music, drama and art and have unmet financial need.
Due to increased support from the community in the past several years, the Festival of the Arts Council has extended the scholarship grants to students in theater, dance, music, graphic design and studio art.
In addition to scholarships offered to university students, the council opted to offer scholarships to students in Portage County to attend the High School Summer Art Camp at UWSP.
The festival also supplies monetary awards to the Emerging Artist Show held at the Stevens Point Riverfront Arts Center. This show highlights artwork from art students in grades seven to 12 in the Stevens Point Area Public School District.

This 1964 Honda S600 roadster (AS265-64-11xxx) is offered as a sandblasted and premiered roller, and is an early example with chain drive and bubble headlights. A 1965 engine and transmission are included, and the seller says that the only rust repair needed will be in the outer lower fenders and spare tire pan. Find it here on Craigslist in Pittsford, New York for $6k. Special thanks to BaT reader Connor M. for this submission!
A bare meatal product that will keep rust away til the cows come home. It's a waxy spray called Linebacker Ruet Preventative. It will require some work to remove.
Are these ever found in running condition ? Just askin …
@Lorenzoo – When it comes to cars: Primer.
Looking at BaT lately projects are the new barn finds! That's very good news for me… :-)
I know the seller as he is also really into Datsun Roadsters. He's a reputable guy. I talked to him about this car and I decided I don't know enough about the S cars to buys a "car in a box." This one does look nice though – and you know what you're getting since it's already stripped.
He does have a lead on an engine and/or engine components to go w/ the car.
They should have thrown some Picklex 20 on there or something after they pulled all that paint off.
Anybody have a better product for when storing bare metal parts, for long periods of time, before final coatings?
Now's the time to flip the steering wheel and stuff in an S2000 driveline.

I gave him my take, which is that I'm surprised Syler, 39, was chosen for this position only because I'm surprised CBS is capable of making a smart decision. Rene Syler is, to me, everything you could want in a national morning-show host: She is funny, self-deprecating and has great on-camera presence. The dude's response was, basically, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, but, you know, what about her journalistic chops?"
OK, big red flag. I see the angle here. Because she's an "unknown" (if you don't lunch with the East/West Coast media types who write about you, you are officially an "unknown"), then we need to show what a reach CBS made by hiring this person. Obviously, she was chosen not for her journalism background but for her ability to fill out the network's demographic check sheet. (Old white dude, check. Youngish white gal with sports background and big bright smile, check. Asian-American who can read news stories, check. African-American from the heartland, check.) In fact, station officials acknowledged they needed someone who fit just that description to fill out the cast. So, from the media's perspective, now it's time to question the hire. The headline: "Desperate network makes weird hire from Texas, confirming desperation."
Don't believe me? Read The Washington Post's story that ran this past Tuesday. In it, the reporter gave everyone the lowdown on each anchor hired. Here is that reporter's take on Syler:
...Rene Syler, 39, who's never done network TV before. Syler has anchored the noon and 6 p.m. newscasts for the CBS-owned station in Dallas. She says she's in the TV news business because she "loves speaking to people" but, she adds, "my first love is talking to children because they listen with such wide-eyed wonder and ask the best questions, like 'how much money do you make?'"
If you read the entire piece, the reporter is clearly mocking Syler, who sounds like a wishy-washy hausfrau with this quote. The problem? The reporter isn't honest. Syler did not say that. That quote is taken directly from Syler's bio on the KTVT Web site, www.cbs11tv.com. Yes, Syler probably wrote that (she was in New York doing PR stuff, and was unavailable), but taking that sort of PR-fluff Web site crap out of context and pretending that this is really Syler's take on why she is in the news business is done only to manufacture a characterization of her that fits into that reporter's predetermined thesis. It goes on all the time in this biz, but it's still fundamentally dishonest. It's as unfair as--oh, I don't know--dissecting one paragraph of one story from a Washington Post reporter and making sweeping generalizations about that person's journalistic integrity.
So I told the dude from the trade paper that I thought Syler's journalistic chops were irrelevant, because, let's face it, it isn't like they're going to be anchoring live from Baghdad. Even if they did, that ain't really journalism. Journalism is sitting through board meetings, poring over pages of government documents, sifting through sources and their mixed motives. Whipping up a paella with Emeril or tapping your foot while Bruce Springsteen plays live on set isn't hard-core journalism.
That doesn't keep professional speculators from speculating, of course. "I think the new format is a publicity stunt," network-news analyst Andrew Tyndall told the Philadelphia Inquirer. "I don't know Rene's work, but Chen hasn't done much heavy lifting. I'm unsure she'll be up to the task."
Heavy lifting?
Fact is, no one knows how Syler will do, or how the show will do. Tracy Rowlett, her co-anchor at Channel 11 and a man with huge j-chops himself, says, for what it's worth, that it's the perfect gig for Syler. "Very few people can step outside the anchor mold and be successful," he says. "But she is one who can. She is witty, glib and she has full command of the situation around her. I think she'll do very well."

Lose Weight, Make Money With These Stocks
BOSTON ( TheStreet) -- The new year is prime time for making resolutions, and none is more popular than losing weight.
The industry is well aware of that, so the media are stuffed with ads at this time of year. For example, the now-svelte pop diva Mariah Carey is singing the praises of a New Year jump-start program for Jenny Craig, after a 30-pound, post-pregnancy slim-down.
Not to be outdone, competitor NutriSystem (NTRI) is attempting to appeal to men, a fast-growing segment of the weigh-loss market, by recently naming former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Terry Bradshaw a spokesman.And that shines the light on what is now an estimated $60 billion industry, which ranges from pre-packaged meals in supermarkets or shipped directly to homes, local or Internet-based group meetings, to individualized consulting. This business has huge potential, given the fast-growing rate of obesity and the health problems it brings, including heart disease and diabetes. According to government statistics, two-thirds of Americans are overweight. Americans tend to gain one pound during the holiday season, which while slight, adds up over the years because the weight isn't lost during the rest of the year, according to the National Institutes of Health. Some investors are aware of the opportunity as the industry leader, Weight Watchers International (WTW), has seen its shares rise 51% this year. Weight Watchers claims it has 1.7 million paid online subscribers. Another leading player, besides Weight Watchers and NutriSystem, is Nestle (NSRGY), one of the world's largest food companies, through its Jenny Craig unit. Here are summaries of the three leading publicly traded weight-loss companies and their outlook:

Two years ago Mohinder Kaur walked into our office. She said she had travelled from her pind in Punjab to almost every other State in the country, except Kerala, Tripura, Manipur and Nagaland. The 70 plus Mohinder wandered into our office once again. This time she had crossed Kerala off her list.
Armed with photocopies of letters from appreciative District Collectors, government officials and articles from newspapers, she declares that she is most impressed with the Panchayats of the southern states, and the empowerment of women here.
"They know their rights," she says approvingly. Mohinder Kaur has been the President of the Mahila Mandal, Dhoot Kalan Village in Hoshiarpur district.
Having discharged her domestic duties, she now travels where her heart takes her, observing the status of women across the country, how the panchayats work, the anganwadis, and so on. Every now and then she touches base at Hoshiarpur where she speaks at length to Punjabi publications who are happy to write down her experiences in their paper.
Mohinder Kaur has no English, very little Hindi and only robust Punjabi. But that has not deterred her from going to Kochi, interacting with panchayat officials there and then making her way to Coimbatore and right back to our office. She says she has just returned from Uttrakhand.
She wanted to go to Kedarnath, in fact went half way there only to encounter the devastation. "God did not will it, so I decided to visit Kanyakumari instead," she declares. She stays in temples and gurudwaras wherever she goes and says she has never been stranded. She says God knows His job and is keeping an eye on her.
Though Mohinder Kaur is herself a school dropout, she believes education is the only way of empowering women. She is sorrowful at the condition of women in villages she has visited in some northern states. Illiteracy has put women at the mercy of men, she says. But she sees hope, too. She hopes when she carries the stories of women empowerment in states such as Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka up north, there may be change. "Write something about me this time too," she says. Has she done anything more since we last met her? "No. I am just travelling. I liked Coimbatore, so I returned. I may not live long enough to come back two years later," she says. But before she goes anywhere she has one more stop she wants to make. "The brand new State of Telengana."

Castaway Cay!
Finally an update!! I apologize for the long absence but time just gets away from you sometimes. After visiting Nassau, the next day was Castaway Cay! Youll have to forgive me because I had written notes to myself every day about what we did and for some reason I just stopped doing it. So Im relying on my somewhat questionable memory for the remainder of the trip!
Reading this board has been fabulous but there some threads about the ship not being able to dock at Castaway Cay and it made me nervous. Of course I would have been disappointed and I would have made the best of the situation and we still would have had fun but I really wanted to see Castaway Cay! I was up very early this morning probably because I was a bit nervous about it! Eilee was fast asleep as I looked out the porthole to see that we were moving very slowly and about to dock. The weather was a bit windy and gray so I had to oversee the process to make sure everything went well! So I threw on some clothes and went up to deck 12 to watch!
You can see, the ship was hopping and many other people wanted to watch us dock as well.
I could see quite a few employees on the dock waiting for us to come in. It made me wonder how many people live there on the island. Look, you can see tiny people out on the bridge!
I had to hold the camera out over the rail to get these shots and I was sure that it would fall right into the water but it didnt!
I ran back down to the room, took a shower and got Eilee moving. We met Holly & Leah for breakfast at Cabanas and then we prepared to leave the ship. We had no excursions for this day either so we were just going with the flow! And Im glad that we hadnt booked excursions because when we got off of the ship we saw signs all over stating that most of them (such as glass bottom boat tours and fishing excursions were cancelled). We decided not to take the tram at the end of the dock and we took the path along the beach which wasnt a long walk at all.
The first thing we saw on the island was that cat that lives there! I didnt get any photos of it but it let us stop to say hi, give a quick pet and then we moved on.
Once we got to the beach we saw the shop where you could rent snorkel equipment. There were some planned activities on Castaway Cay for the tween group from The Edge so we found the location where they would meet later so that the girls would know where to go. They wanted to snorkel but Holly & I thought it was too chilly so we gladly plopped down on a beach chair and congratulated each other on the fine choice we made to give the girls charging privileges as they went and got their own equipment!
They went right in and were snorkeling around for a while and Holly & I decided to take a walk. We told the girls to return their stuff when they were done . We brought bags with extra clothes and sunscreen and we left their stuff with them. We just wandered around and looked at everything. We saw a few items in the shops that we would come back to get later!
We thought it would be fun to rent some bikes to take a nice ride around the island. It was the perfect day for it because it wasnt hot at all. It got a little warm when the sun came out but then when it would go behind the clouds it was chilly so I was constantly putting on my sweatshirt and then taking it back off! The ride was very fun and just perfect! Around the back side of the island there was a lookout tower and when you climb to the top, this is what you see!
After we stopped at the lookout tower, we rode to the adult beach. This was our first cruise so it was interesting to ride past all of the cabanas! It was very windy at the adult beach and pretty cold but we still decided to take a walk along the shore and there werent many people here at all.
As we started walking we saw a really hot guy walking towards us we managed to get to him just before all of the other adult women came running!
This is also the most horrible picture of me. Ever. I'm squinting and my shirt was ballooning out from the wind! Nice.
After we returned to the main area, we brought the bikes back and it was time for lunch. This is what we had and I have to say that while it wasnt terrible, this was my least favorite meal of the trip. The burger was dry, the hot dog was dry and the cheesy bread was tough.
After lunch Holly wanted to rest on the beach chairs and do some shopping so I decided to head to the bar of course!! I sat down on a stool and started to look at the menu when I realized that the bartender was none other than my Martini tasting teacher Sukhsan!!! It was like seeing a long lost friend. We chatted about drinks and his life on the ship and he is just a nice, nice guy. He said that there are about 100 people that live on Castaway Cay at any given time for maintenance. Wow! And employees come off of the ship to work the retail stores, rental places, bars and restaurants. During our discussion I decided to try to signature Castaway Cay drink, the Konk Cooler. I have to say that the consistency was lovely (just like soft serve) but it was just too sweet for me. But of course that didnt stop me from drinking it.
The girls had texted us earlier that they had indeed found their Edge group. Im not exactly sure what they did but I know that they ate lunch together with the counselors. After a while I texted Eilee to let her know that Id be going back to the ship around 3:30 because I had a massage scheduled for 4:30. She said that she would come with me because she wouldnt mind a little nap before dinner.
I went to my massage at 4:30 thinking that if I had a 50 minute massage, Id get done around 5:30 which would be just in time to run and change before dinner. It didnt quite happen that way. The massage was great, relaxing and all that but afterwards the girl spent a lot of time pitching their products which Id heard would happen but I completely forgot about it. I didnt have a chance to interrupt her though I wanted to. I know that once I get back home that Id never use that massage oil that she was trying to sell me I dont massage myself and Vince gives a pretty pathetic back massage so definitely not worth the $50 or whatever it was! I wanted her to hurry so I could go eat but I didnt want to be rude. So I nodded my head and finally told her that I had to hurry along to dinner!!
I walked quickly back to the room, grabbed Eilee and we darted off to dinner! We were a tad bit late but not too late. I was so frazzled that I forgot the camera and didnt take any photos at dinner. I dont remember what I ate but I can tell you for sure that Holly & Leah had chicken nuggets off of the kids menu! I can't recall much from that night actually. But Im a huge football fan and they were showing the playoffs on the big screen on deck 11 that evening!!! So we grabbed some blankets (it was really cold), settle down in the deck chairs and watched some football!! What a way to end the cruise! I'm now thankful that the Packers didn't play the Giants that night.
Coming up leaving the Dream and going to WDW!

so glad you had the time to continue. Castaway Cay looks amazing considering it's January. The drink there looks weird though - like a dole whip.
Still haven't finished my report from October so I'm a fine one to nag but yours is definitely worth waiting for

Thanks for sharing your trip with us! I would really love to hear from your DD about some of the activities in Edge. My DS12 is curious as to what offerings they have, if there are organized activities or just "hang out" time. Also, what activities do they have on CC?

"This Armory originated from a desire to illuminate the family tree of a New Zealander with the Coats of Arms of her many Cornish ancestors. In the research for this previously unpublished 16th and 17th century manuscripts of armorial bearings were discovered. Although not relating exclusively to Cornwall, they included a large number of references of Cornish families. The number of arms so found together with a review of many early printed and other sources has resulted in this book of almost 2,500 family arms." Price:

At first, the book presents an overview: the royal patronage that nourished the industry, the techniques that went into the making of a pashmina shawl, the slow and subtle evolution of brilliant motifs. It then goes on to present a more detailed picture: individual patterns, their differences in style, and their continuity with or departure from tradition." Price:

Philip FitzRobert, one of the Empress Maud's greatest champions, had turned coat, imprisoning thirty knights and squires who held true to the empress. The lucky ones had kin who could afford the dear price for their freedom; the others had to rot in captivity. Among the missing and unclaimed was Olivier de Bretagne, an exceptional knight whose mother had been a woman of the East - and whose sire, unknown to Olivier himself, was Brother Cadfael. It had happened during the Crusades, years before Cadfael had become a monk. Indeed, Cadfael did not know he had a son until by chance he met Olivier as a young man. But the bond is strong, and it is the one claim that can make Cadfael break his vows and drive him from his cloister, risking the religious way of life he so loves.

John Harrigan: Time to do what's right for the loon's haunting call in the night
I'm thinking here of when a lot of duck hunters had to shelve lead in favor of steel. And even further back, when we had to stop thinking about a line of demarcation for hunting seasons north and south, which was replaced by 13-something hunting zones that help Fish and Game (and hunters) do what's right for the resource. And then there was the time when, with Bandy Siegler's leadership, hunters and writers (that would be me) teamed up to get rid of the bobcat bounty.
Time to step up, I think, and get rid of the old and the bad, and do what's right for the resource, which is what that loon's call in the evening air is all about.

For New Yorkers with friends and family in Ukraine, the events unfolding there are a constant cause for concern. NY1's Jon Weinstein spoke with members of one family dealing with the danger in that country.
Marta Osadchuk lived in the city for six years, but her friends and family in Ukraine are never from her mind. Q: The first thing you do in the morning is what?Osadchuk: Check news, talk to my family, in particular to my brother.
Her brother, Pavlo, lives in Kiev. NY1 spoke with him and a friend via Skype about what's unfolding there. As tensions in Crimea reach a boiling point, he admitted that he's increasingly nervous and terrified about Russian President Vladimir Putin's ultimate goal. "I'm very nervous. I can't sleep normal from this three months, maybe," Pavlo Osadchuk said. "I want to say I hate Putin."
Pavlo Osadchuk and his friend took part in the initial protests in Kiev against deposed pro-Russian President Victor Yanukovych, which chased him from the country. They showed NY1 the hard hats, goggles and gas masks that they used to protect themselves during the violence that erupted last month.
"The gas was everywhere, and they just shoot the bomb with the gas," said Iaroslav Iakubivskyi, Pavlo's friend.
"They are running around Kiev in those helmets and gas masks and, you know, you can only imagine what people like me can feel in that moment," Marta Osadchuk said.
The situation in Kiev is much calmer now, but ominously, the future of Ukraine in general is uncertain after Russian troops moved into Crimea. Pavlo Osadchuk and Iakubivskyi pointed to an international treaty signed in 1994, where the U.S., U.K. and Russia agreed to respect Ukraine's borders. They said that they hope this ends peacefully, but there's no telling what the Russians will do. "If they will start a war against us, I just, we ask Obama to take some, I don't know, army to Ukraine to help us because we cannot do anything against Russia," Iakubivskyi said. It's clear that as the crisis deepens, Pavlo Osadchuk and all of Marta's family in the Ukraine will be in harm's way, so Marta had a simple message for her brother.
"Just stay safe, and contact me as much as you can," Marta Osadchuk said.
Concerned words from a sister to her brother as the world and a family wait to see what happens next.

Enough of These Comic Book Hero Movies -- It's an Endless Parade of Sexist, Semi-Fascist Bores
Photo Credit: Wikimedia
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
Twenty years ago, after appearing in two phenomenally successful, visually opulent and generally brilliant Batman movies, Michael Keatondecided he didn't want to make any more Caped Crusader films. So he walked away. It was a disastrous move that effectively ended Keaton's career as a leading man, the actor learning the hard way that the only unforgivable crime in Hollywood is to walk away from a phenomenally successful franchise.
Today's superhero films have not yet reached the point where they flat-out suck. But they are getting there. Iron Man 2 was a huge disappointment, The Avengers (Iron Man 2½) an aimless hodgepodge and The Dark Knight Rises a pretentious, incoherent mess. And now this week we have yet another Superman movie, Man of Steel. Those of us who would like to see an end – or at least an extended pause – to the hegemony of superhero films would be very pleased if Robert Downey Jr, Christian Bale and the nebbish who plays Captain America would make a similarly audacious artistic decision and walk away.The next two Batman films starred Val Kilmerand George Clooney. Batman Forever was not very good and Batman & Robin was terrible. And for the next few years Batman dropped out of the global conversation. This was good because it gave society a breather. The Dark Knight thing was played out: the excitement moviegoers felt when Tim Burton made the first Batman film had evaporated under the tutelage of Joel Schumacher. In retrospect, Keaton's catastrophic decision to walk away now seems heroic, because he was the last actor to go through a script, take a cold, hard look at the superhero genre and say: "Enough. These films are starting to suck."
As Steven Soderbergh recently complained, these films are sucking the life out of motion pictures, diverting virtually all of the industry's resources into insanely expensive "tentpole" films that supposedly prop up other projects. It is unlikely that any of these actors will make such a courageous decision as Keaton, though: they saw what happened to him, they saw how Sean Connery's career stalled when he quit 007. But it's still okay to dream, isn't it?
This thing is starting to get old. There are too many superhero films: their storylines are all beginning to run together. It is a genre dominated by the thoroughly unoriginal notion that you cannot trust the government. Even when you can trust the government, you cannot trust all of it. And even the branches you can trust aren't much help, because they are incompetent. To save humanity, one must rely on a bootstrap operation headed by a dedicated go-getter and self-starter. At heart, all superheroes are Republicans.
In superhero movies, women are almost always accessories. This is true even if they themselves are superheroines. The men do the heavy lifting; the women serve an ornamental function. This is why we are all the way up to Iron Man 3 and Batman 7, but have not seen a Supergirl film since 1984, or a Wonder Woman film ever (supposedly, it is coming this year). The 12-year-old boys for whom superhero movies are made are not interested in women. They may not even be interested in girls. They are certainly not interested in girls with superpowers.
Superhero films increasingly rely on a structure where the hero thinks he is fighting one villain when he is actually fighting another. In The Dark Knight Rises, Batman thinks he is up against the crypto-fascist Bane, when he is actually locked in a deadly struggle with a mysterious fellow philanthropist played by Marion Cotillard. In Iron Man 3, the hero believes he is going toe-to-toe with a terrorist called the Mandarin, when the villain is actually a mad scientist who bears a striking resemblance to the dead but not forgotten US rock star Warren Zevon.

We'll all be cheering you on. EWWW about your friend--I can't believe a guy would actually think that would be appealing to a woman. I also think that when you are getting into your 30's it's harder to find guys who have no kids--at least you're a teacher so you're used to children.

I would definitely say not to bring up your desire for children until you get to know each other a little and at least find out if you like each other. If he sees that you teach young kids, then he'll assume at least that you like children, which is a plus for him--he certainly wouldn't want a relationship with a woman who wouldn't like a small child. And I agree he's certainly young enough for more, esp. since he only has one.

Woo hoo - cheering for you!
The great thing about an 8 year old is that they can really be so much fun, one of the best stages I think. (Though I don't have kids, just experience them through friends....)

Teeth can be fixed, although I've rejected men because of their teeth in the past. When I met my future husband, he didn't smile wide and i could tell he was hiding bad teeth. All of his good points overrode this. After years together, since my parents lived in San Diego at the time, we visite them and crossed the bornder into Mexico and got him a whole new mouth of beautiful teeth for 1/4 of the price at American dentists. Just sayin'! LOL
|Wed, 08-06-2014 - 9:39pm
Yes! I was working in Phoenix last year and heard about the Mexican dentists right across the border from Yuma, in Los Almagodones. I needed a crown and root canal, got them fo $480. It would have been close to 2 K here WITH insurance. I was very happy with the work. It is a nice tourist town and very safe. They have more dentists per capita than anywhere in the world. Many trained in the US. They actually fight for your business and bargain with you.
Sorry to get off track here. But I agree, teeth can be fixed. I know money can be a problem, but I have met wealthy men who neglect their teeth.

Shywon, that's a low blow about medical care in Mexico. Many Mexican doctors are excellent practitioners, its cheaper there because wages etc are cheaper than in the U.S, not because the care is poor. Your coworker is fine isn't she? The U.S. has plenty of bad doctors and bad outcomes to surgeries--I know a man whose wife had bariatric surgery in Indianapolis and died from complications. There are a lot of risks inherent to that surgery including that the patient is sometimes not very healthy to start with. Its unfair to imply that all of the medical care in Mexico is substandard because you know of one case with a bad outcome. Okay, off my soapbox.
Hope something good develops with new guy.

|Candidate for
|New Jersey General Assembly District 12
|Saint Peters College
|Retired, New Jersey Transit
|Campaign website
Spedding was a candidate for District 12 of the New Jersey General Assembly. He was defeated in the November 8 general election. Spedding and Catherine Tinney Rome ran unopposed in the June 7 Democratic primary. Ronald Dancer and Robert Clifton ran unopposed in the Republican primary[1]
Spedding was a 2009 Democratic candidate for New Jersey General Assembly District 30.
He was bracketed with John Kocubinski and lost to incumbents Joseph Malone, III and Ronald Dancer.[2]
Campaign themes
Spedding lists the following issues on his campaign website:
- Infrastructure
Excerpt:"Should we postpone public sector infrastructure improvements until the economy is strong again? Rather than postponing public sector infrastructure improvements, we should take advantage of the difficult economy contractors face and accelerate them."
- Funding
Excerpt:"The cost of mitigating local intersection congestion and maintenance of roads should be substantially funded by higher motor vehicle registration taxes on all new vehicle registrations. The cost should be scaled, with much higher fees for vehicles with low EPA ratings and only modestly higher for fuel efficient vehicles. These higher annual taxes would apply to any vehicle not currently registered in N.J. This revenue would gradually reduce transportation related property taxes."
- Why not abolish Civil Service?
Excerpt:"The primary cause of inefficiency in the public sector work force is poor management due to political interference. I do not favor abolishing Civil Service any place where it already exists. Civil Service needs some reforms. It was established more than 130 years ago by President Hays, a Republican, because of the flaws and abuses of the "Spoil System" established by President Jackson, a Democrat. Progressive discipline in a Civil Service environment works well but is inadequately used because of political pressures on managers."

Deputy charged with D.U.I.
By Erin Calandra
CENTRE COUNTY, Pa. -- A Centre County Sheriff Deputy was charged with D.U.I. after crashing his truck into a house and a parked car, state police said.
Police said Bryan Cramer, 32, crashed into the home along Riverstone Lane in Zion on June 23.
Police said he knocked down all three posts holding up a porch causing thousands of dollars in damage.
According to the criminal complaint, Cramer drove off after the crash and then returned to the home. His blood alcohol content was .175, more than double the legal limit.
Nate Black owns the house that was hit. He said he was sleeping on his couch when a car hit his house.
Black said he's disappointed the deputy is still on duty.
"I realize people make mistakes and due process but at the same time with him being a deputy you think people in county realize the more you cover it the worse its going to be, Black said.
Centre County Sheriff Denny Nau denied any cover up. He said Cramer was demoted and could face more consequences pending a review of the case.
Cramer is expected to face a judge August 28.

28.03.07 - By Zhenyu Li: There were rumors about the possibility of Bernard The Executioner Hopkins fighting with the WBC heavyweight boxing champion Oleg Maskaev, the WBO super middleweight champion Joe Calzaghe, the former WBC/WBA cruiserweight titlist O'Neil Bell or even a rematch with his 1993 conqueror Roy Jones Jr., but none of those panned out. Instead, this privilege fell into the hands of a naturally smaller middleweight, Winky Wright. Is this the right move for a 41 year-old Hopkins? What does he want to prove?
Last October, Hopkins announced his intention to challenge the WBC heavyweight champ Oleg Maskaev. His rationale for coming back, as he stated, was all derived from patriotism. The four world-renowned heavyweight boxing titles were at the time all held by fighters from the former Soviet Union, Wladimir Klitschko, Nicolay Valuev, Oleg Maskaev and Sergei Liakhovich. He considered himself to be the Savior Jesus who would reclaim at least one title for his country.
It became a visionary scenario when Maskaev indicated his preference for the former WBC champ Vitali Klitschko or Samuel Peter to be his next challenger after Sergei Liakhovichs defeat to Shannon Briggs on November 4.
With Maskaev no longer an available opponent, Hopkins turned to Richard Schaefer in the hope of this Golden Boy's CEO securing the most lucrative match available for him. Then, Hopkins had three options fight with super middleweight boxing champ Joe Calzaghe, fight with cruiserweight champ O'Neil Bell or fight with his old foe Roy Jones Jr..
The Hopkins- Calzaghe fight may be the most intriguing, for Hopkins is one of the most skillful counter punchers in history and Calzaghe is a speedy and aggressive boxer. Styles make fascinating fights. On the other hand, such a conflict would have been Calzaghes twentieth defense of his WBO boxing title. Coming out of retirement to personally stop someone from breaking your record sounds like an interesting plot that worth touting.
The Hopkins- Bell fight would be fun to watch too. O'Neil Bell is a hard -hitting puncher with a big right hand. He once knocked out the WBC/WBA cruiserweight boxing champion Jean-Marc Mormeck who is known for his chin and durability. Hopkins is a super-slick counter puncher who hold two-time Roy Jones conqueror Tarver in his last fight to just 78 total punches landed over the entire 12 rounds- an average of just seven total punches landed per round. Would that be the second edition of Jones-Ruiz fight, or the modern version of Tyson-Spinks fight? Anyway, watching a bulked up middleweight dominate a former cruiserweight champion through his slickness and dexterity, or how the "Super Nova" execute the vintage Executioner with a single smash is pleasing to your eyes.
Hopkins-Jones fight could also be a good matchup. Although its the final struggle of two twilight warriors, these two fighters were once pound for pound boxing king in their respective divisions. Hopkins could finally get that stone out of his shoes if he beat Jones, or fail, bestowing the 38 year-old Jones a brilliant retirement show.
Unfortunately, none of these three matches panned out. To everyones surprise, Winky Wright, a naturally smaller middleweight eventually turned out to be Hopkinss next opponent.
As far as I am concerned, Hopkins is seeking psychological redemption. Despite the final draw, many people thought Winky Wright was the actual winner in his confrontation against Jermain Taylor. As it turned out, Hopkins lost twice by very close decision to Taylor, but he claimed that he won both times. If he beats Wright this time, then perhaps in his mind, hes better than Taylor and is always the undisputed middleweight king. Maybe thats why he chose Wright as his return date opponent.
