Posted 26 March 2009 - 07:08 PM
Filmy doesnt have a good following even in india.
I believe UTV movies has got good line up of movies.
Dont forget to ask the CSR about the other 3 "new" channels when you call them to change the package.
Posted 27 March 2009 - 03:22 PM
Posted 30 March 2009 - 06:18 PM
Thanks Quizzer,
When I called CRS to drop Filmy, I got the same running around as to March is not yet over and that the channels are going to launch!!!!!!!
Posted 31 March 2009 - 11:21 AM
Posted 31 March 2009 - 05:03 PM
I just spoke to Directv. the CSR told me about some information that he had about NDTV Goodtimes (it suppose to be channel 2009, but wasn't sure if that was already coing through or what) and NDTV Profit (suppose to be channel 2010, but same thing wasn't sure if it was coming already or not). Seemed very honest about information that he didn't not knew.
Posted 31 March 2009 - 05:33 PM
Seems like you and Nina spoke to the same CSR?
Posted 31 March 2009 - 08:37 PM
I just got done talking to CSR and I was told that the (Profit and Goodtime) channels should be launching anytime next week. I will believe that when I see them on my tv
Posted 31 March 2009 - 09:09 PM
When I spoke to the CSR, he seemd to be looking at some Channel Fact Sheet or something like that. I had asked him abt the PTC Punjabi. He didn't see that on the list, but had many customers inquiring about that channel. I guess gdeep must be one of those customer.
Posted 31 March 2009 - 09:52 PM

I hate it most when they lie to you though. Tell you they got an offer for $X amount so I say ya at that price you better accept, and then the card sits out there for months. Those situations have usually been nickel and dime type crap. The worst are the people who list a card at 2-5X what the card is really worth and it sits for months and they still arent willing to budge. I understand some people make a living off this but holding excess inventory of cards instead of cash isn't the wisest move IMO.

And the bay now has free listings on certain items, so I wouldn't blame the seller for trying because it's not really costing them anything more to wait a bit. ..but let me ask you this... ...were you the winner of the card? Did you get the card you wanted? You may not have needed it, and that's all good, but you still took the time to put in an offer and then track it...so you obviously had some desire for the card...and you could have had it for just $20 more than what you asked for...now you gotta go and find another one. I'm not saying that anyone here is wrong, but just as collector's think that the price they want to pay is enough, there may be, just may be, another collector out there that may want it bad enough.

With the terrible destruction that Hurricane Sandy unleashed on the east coast, my thoughts are with those that are suffering unspeakable devastation this morning.
You have been inundated with television commercials, radio ads and newspaper stories. NFIB has been front and center working to inform small business owners of the issues this campaign season and the candidates the best support free enterprise. NFIB/NY has endorsed 75 state legislative candidates and scored each and every member of the state legislature.
With a week left, the time is rapidly approaching to do your part and cast a vote for candidates that you feel will best help your business, your family and your employees. These rarely are easy decisions, and much is at stake. Nationally and here at the state level, there is an opportunity to shape our economic future. Simply, to bolster a stagnate private sector economy that desperately needs it.
Your vote will help shape our future.
In light of Hurricane Sandy, poll sites may change. Keep up to date with the latest changes here.

Circa Rhodia Annotation Ruled Notebook
Classy and Practical
I have many notebooks that I use for ongoing classes, lectures and teachings. They need to be able to fit into a large purse (3 ring notebooks do not!). I had been stumped before the circa system. I have the benefits of a spiral notebook as well as the versatility of a 3 ring binder. Adding to that the extra large plastic covers hold handout sheets keeping them protected. My small complaint is that as I turned the pages back while taking notes they sometimes pulled out. They were easy to replace and I think with some practice I can mitigate that happening. I am looking forward to expanding my use of the entire circa system. I great find indeed.
August 13, 2014
I wanted this Circa for the orange cover...
...instead I got an orange piece of paper with clear plastic covers...which started to crease inside of a week from being moved around when I opened and closed the notebook. I wanted a hard orange plastic cover. I am very sad about this as I have owned Levenger items for decades and they still look like new. Have to say, they REALLY MISSED THE MARK WITH THIS ONE. Don't buy into the Rhodia deal as there are other circas on the site that will last longer. This experience has really made me concerned about purchasing the customer/creative looking covers as I can't afford to spend another $30 on flimsy paper. :(

Perfect for Depositions, Hearings & Trials
The Circa Rhodia Annotation Ruled Notebook is perfect for note taking at depositions, hearings, and trials ... and, it holds important written materials for easy access. I bought a number of the Rhodia notebooks, and added some accessories to a few of the notebooks, which increased their utility enormously.
June 28, 2014
My favorite binder
This binder is the perfect size; I carry 2 in my brief case covering multiple subjects.
December 14, 2013
As a long time customer of Levenger, I thought this would be up to their usual standards, but was disappointed. The design was great, but the paper did not stand up to my fountain pen, had almost constant bleed through. I wanted to try the Circa line, and the idea is a good one, but I find I'm back to looking for something else.
December 9, 2013
I love my Circa notebook!
I am loving my Circa Rhodia notebook! I work full time, am enrolled in a post-master's program, and I am completing an internship this Fall. I needed a notebook system that could keep all of my papers and notes organized and in one place for easy access. I am so happy I decided to purchase this notebook. My employment and educational life is neatly organized together. In addition, this Circa notebook looks beautiful- professional and put together, unlike a spiral notebook or binder. If you are deciding whether or not to buy, I wholly recommend it! (Don't forget to buy a Circa punch too :)
September 15, 2013
Delightfully practical
Circa + Rhodia + Clairefontaine paper = Wonderful! I bought this because I had nearly back-to-back conferences and knew that I would need to be taking copious notes. I'm a long-time Circa fan and this paper seemed an ideal addition. It has been receiving rave reviews for excellent reasons. This paper is far superior to the reviews. Get it, use it, love it. Absolutely worth every penny. If you use fountain pens (Visconti 'Homo Sapiens' for those conferences) this paper is what you've been searching for - all glide, no bleed through. Added to the Circa format, this paper is a true winner. Go order, I'll wait.
August 3, 2013
Circa + Rhodia = Mid-Lifesaver!
Never the most organized person, I find as I get older I'm more apt to misplace things, and my old method of grabbing the nearest scrap of paper to write business notes, reminders, to-do lists on--and then not being able to find it when I needed it--was driving me round the bend. My Circa notebook keeps it all in one spot; I remove pages as they are no longer needed, and add pages as I need them; and the annotation column gives me space to delineate notes like action items, phone numbers, important dates, etc. I may be doddery, but now I'm orderly!
June 1, 2013
Great Combination!
I love Rhodia paper and I love the Circa notebook system. What could be better? Rhodia graph paper. Please Levenger could you begin to offer Rhodia graph paper for the Circa system? Engineers use Circa too!
March 19, 2013
Seeking perfection
This Rhodia notebook is almost perfect. I love the paper and the design. However, the problem I have with all CIRCA notebooks is that, when I turn the page, the pagers I've written on already come loose from the rings. This is especially bad when I am in the middle-to-end of the notebook.My ideal notebook would be exactly as this one, but with a perforated left binding. The Rhodia pads, which I also use, are problematic because after the very first use, the cover will no longer lie flat. These pads would be ideal with a heftier cover that would close properly and stay closed. Can your R&D department develop these pads/notebooks? As a novelist who writes everything out longhand, I would be thrilled with such products and you would have a customer forever!

Lynn Sweet: Jesse Jackson Jr.'s agony: He couldn't escape father's shadow

Updated: December 24, 2012 7:20AM
WASHINGTON — The House office suite here of now-former Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. is a monument to his better days, what was and what might have been.
Jackson quit Congress on Wednesday, battling health issues and a federal criminal probe centered on his campaign funds. He hasn't been to his Rayburn Building office since he vanished in June, eventually landing in Mayo Clinic to treat his bipolar depression.
His desk is frozen as he left it — with two computers and, under the glass, a Chicago Sun-Times front page from May 22, 2007, featuring the swearing-in of his wife, Sandi, as a Chicago alderman as Jackson and their two kids looked on. A deer with antlers he bagged is mounted on a wall, along with photos from the hunt of Jackson kneeling proudly with his kill.
There is a framed Sports Illustrated spread of Jackson holding a football, ready to leap, seemingly, over the Capitol Dome, and a picture of him and Mother Teresa.
He's shaking hands with Al Gore in one picture, smiling with Stevie Wonder and Dolly Parton in another.
The most telling for me is Jackson standing behind Nelson and Winnie Mandela — his arm stretched and his fist clenched with them in a salute. The very day the great South African leader was released from prison near Cape Town in 1990, Jackson somehow got in the picture. He was there, of course, because of his father, the Rev. Jesse L. Jackson.
Jackson's blessing and curse is to be the namesake son of a famous self-made man. I always sensed his agaony was that he could never get out of the shadow of his father. Part of that he brought on himself, by going into the family business: politics. In Congress, he landed a plum assignment on the Appropriations Committee as a hat tip to his dad.
He was a hard worker, a consistent progressive vote with some obsessions. A minor one was getting to the State of the Union speech each year hours early so he could get an aisle seat visible on TV as he jumped out to greet the president. Jackson was consumed with building an airport at Peotone.
I remember our first interview after he came to Congress in 1995. We talked about his growing up. I was struck that almost every job he had was because he was his father's son.
My sense is he was very pained during Barack Obama's first presidential run. He was a co-chair, but the campaign did not make him a high-profile surrogate.
Though Jackson resigned on Wednesday, he has been sidelined and muzzled since Dec. 9, 2008 — when then-Gov. Rod Blagojevich was arrested.
Jackson, who was angling for Blagojevich to appoint him to the Senate spot Obama had held, was implicated in the Blagojevich scheme to "sell" the seat. That cloud never lifted.
Besides sending his resignation letter to House GOP and Democratic leadership, Jackson copied it only to: Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.), who has known him since he was a kid through his dad; the present and incoming Congressional Black Caucus chairs, and colleagues Danny Davis and Bobby Rush, the other African Americans in the Illinois delegation, who have always given Jackson the benefit of the doubt.
There's one other picture on Jackson's office wall that caught my attention. Jackson and his father bracket former President George H.W. Bush and his wife, Barbara. Wrote Bush, "Good luck in your exciting life ahead."
It was for awhile. But not for now.

Islam Siddiqui Appointed
April 1, 2010 by TMO · Leave a Comment
President Obama on Saturday announced the recess appointment of 15 political appointees whose nominations had been stalled by Republicans.
"The United States Senate has the responsibility to approve or disapprove of my nominees. But if, in the interest of scoring political points, Republicans in the Senate refuse to exercise that responsibility, I must act in the interest of the American people and exercise my authority to fill these positions on an interim basis," Obama said in a statement.
"Most of the men and women whose appointments I am announcing today were approved by Senate committees months ago, yet still await a vote of the Senate. At a time of economic emergency, two top appointees to the Department of Treasury have been held up for nearly six months. I simply cannot allow partisan politics to stand in the way of the basic functioning of government."
The 15 newly appointed nominees are:
* Jeffrey Goldstein: Nominee for Under Secretary for Domestic Finance, Department of the Treasury
* Michael F. Mundaca: Nominee for Assistant Secretary for Tax Policy, Department of the Treasury
* Eric L. Hirschhorn: Nominee for Under Secretary of Commerce for Export Administration and head of the Bureau of Industry and Security, Department of Commerce
* Michael Punke: Nominee for Deputy Trade Representative – Geneva, Office of the United States Trade Representative
* Francisco "Frank" J. Sánchez: Nominee for Under Secretary for International Trade, Department of Commerce
* Islam A. Siddiqui: Nominee for Chief Agricultural Negotiator, Office of the U.S. Trade Representative
* Alan D. Bersin: Nominee for Commissioner, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Department of Homeland Security
* Jill Long Thompson: Nominee for Member, Farm Credit Administration Board
* Rafael Borras: Nominee for Under Secretary for Management , Department of Homeland Security
* Craig Becker: Nominee for Board Member, National Labor Relations Board
* Mark Pearce: Nominee for Board Member, National Labor Relations Board
* Jacqueline A. Berrien: Nominee for Chair of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
* Chai R. Feldblum: Nominee for Commissioner, Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
* Victoria A. Lipnic: Nominee for Commissioner, Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
* P. David Lopez: Nominee for General Counsel, Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
In a post to the White House blog that accompanied Obama's announcement, spokeswoman Jen Psaki wrote that the president "was no longer willing to let another month go by with key economic positions unfilled, especially at a time when our country is recovering from the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression."
Article II, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution gives the president the right to unilaterally fill any vacancy that would normally require Senate confirmation when the Senate is in recess.
Unlike appointments that are confirmed by the Senate, recess appointments only last until the end of the next session of Congress, which right now would mean until the end of 2011.
Obama had been widely expected to recess appoint Becker and Pearce to the labor relations board. As Jason Linkins wrote in the Huffington Post on Friday, GOP opposition to Obama's nominees had left the board with only two of its five members, which has led to a lot of one-to-one ties.
Some of the other appointments are to critical positions, such as the two Treasury candidates whose nominations had been stalled.
And some were being obstructed for particularly outrageous reasons. As Ryan Grim recently reported for the Huffington Post, the two trade nominees — Bunke and Siddiqui — were being blocked by Kentucky Republican Sen. Jim Bunning because he is opposed to a tobacco-related law passed by the Canadian Parliament.
Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.), was particularly eloquent on that matter on the Senate floor two weeks ago: "The Senator from Kentucky has said he doesn't have any objection to these nominees. He's only blocking the nominations as leverage against the President and [U.S. Trade Representative Ron] Kirk. That is pure obstructionism."
Obama nevertheless shied away from what would have been some more controversial recess appointments. He did not unilaterally install any of his blocked nominees to the Justice Department, including Dawn Johnsen, his nominee to run the Office of Legal Counsel, and Chris Schroeder, his nominee to be assistant attorney general for legal policy — both of whom are beloved by progressives but reviled by Republicans. He also chose not to recess appoint one of his senior Treasury nominees, Lael Brainard, nominated for undersecretary of international affairs, who has run into some tax issues.
That Obama would use his recess appointment powers isn't a surprise. According to the Congressional Research Service, President George W. Bush made 171 recess appointments; President Clinton made 139.
Until Saturday, Obama hadn't made any — despite Republican obstruction so intense that even Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in early February essentially begged Obama to do an end run.
"Frankly, I think the President should recess all of them — all of them," Reid said of Obama's stalled nominees. "There are scores of them being held up for reasons that have nothing to do with anything dealing with these people or how they will function once in office."
There are still about 200 judicial and civilian nominees being held up, some of them for some pretty amazing reasons. And the Senate is in recess until April 12.

If you are like me, you have tried every workout plan and exercise routine out there. I am a middle aged women that has had three children and live stressful life, AKA fat middle! I have tried other workout videos and programs before like P90x and similar exercise plan. These are great fitness plan if you are in your twenties and maybe just a little over weight. But I am 47 and fat and can't even come close to keeping up with the routines.
So I started searching the internet for home workout plans, I came across Workout Buddy X workout site. It pretty cool it will help you make a workout plan online. Some of the features that I found to be interesting is that it's totally online and no DVD's. One of the features that caught my eye was that each workout has 3 levels, easy to hard. This was something I was hoping for, being I was so out of shape and other exercise routines really don't offer.
To make a long story short I ordered Workout Buddy X total body workout online program. They offer a 30 day free trial and it's only $10.00 a month, about $18.00 less per month than the gym membership I used about 5 time in the last year!
Some of the key features of Workout Buddy X
- Online personal trainer free
- Exercise plan for beginners
- Online tracking of your workouts and results
- Exercise plans for women and men
- Workout videos online No DVD's
- Customized exercise plan for your goal, level & body-type
- Free auto-tracking workout calendar and web-tools
- Free comprehensive fat loss nutrition eBook
Okay so here is my review, of coarse I was very excited to get started!
The first thing I did was look around at all the Workout Buddy X website had to offer, there is a lot!
At first I was a little over taken by all the information, and how the whole thing worked. Lets just say they have great support for techno idiots like myself!
Week One: make a workout plan online
So I went into this home workout plan with writing a review in mind, just something to keep me motivated.
In the first week I jumped in with both feet, well at least for the first two days the third day I got lazy again. The forth day I remembered my commitment to a good exercise routine. For the next three days I pushed myself to stay on track. So at this point I have 5 days of working out, about 2 hours total.
I used the easiest workout level, it's really a pretty good exercise routine. I didn't really feel as if I was getting wow results from it, so I jumped on the scale. I was happy to see I had lost weight 3 pounds, it's only three pounds "but hell yeah" 3 pounds!
Week Two: weight loss workout routines
With the weight loss results I saw in week one, I really had no problem getting motivated with my exercise plan. After all it seems to be a great workout routine for weight loss and that is my goal. I also thought I would take full advantage of the free personal trainer resources. I worked with Kelly, to find the best exercise plans for women like myself. She was awesome at giving me advise and pointing out some of the mistakes I made in week one and what would be best for me to lose more weight.
In week two I started with my new exercise plan, I started exercising every other day for a total of 4 days and I also stepped it up to the level 2 workout plan. Level 2 is a bit harder, but I felt so good afterwards and my energy level is great! Again I waited until the end of the week to get on the dreaded scale. I have to say I was a little disappointed in my results, I had only lost 2 pounds! Really 2 pounds is pretty good, but after 3 pounds the week before it was a let down.
Week Three: fat loss nutrition plan
So with my week two results being a little disappointing I took advantage of the personal trainer resource again, apparently eating some of the crap I do isn't the best nutrition plan! But I already knew this, we all think we can eat pizza rolls dipped in cheese sauce and loos weight right?
So another one of the benefits of Workout Buddy plan is the Free eBook fat loss secrets nutrition guide.
I am sticking with my every other day workout plan and still using level 2, However with a couple of weeks behind me level 2 doesn't seem so hard! It must be the subject matter at hand here, but I am eating Oreo cookies as I type. (only 2)
So after reading the fat loss nutrition guide, I incorporated better eating habits into my weight loss plan. My kids and hubby are not happy about it, but I make the meals!
So at the end of week three and not feeling so dreadful I went to my scale, I am starting to like my scale these day! I am so freaking happy I have lost 3 more pounds! So in three weeks 8 pounds, that's like a bag of potatoes!
Please check back for more results of my exercise plan

MPD Field Trip: The conversations at a baseball game suck
Baseball August 5th, 2010
When you go to a baseball game the odds are you are going to have a conversation and unfortunately, due to the nature of baseball and it's natural boring-exciting-boring flow, the conversation will not always be about the game on the field. Sometimes you will talk about the team and the GM and whether or not the manager should be fired. Sometimes you will talk about your relationships and your kids and the future. Sometimes you will talk bad about your friends who aren't there because you know it's really fun to do. You will talk about many things and just so you know if you are sitting in the vicinity of me I will eavesdrop on you. Part of this is because I like to try to enjoy the game and will be silent at certain points, believe it or not often times your conversations will come at times when you should probably be paying attention, and part of this is because I am a keen observer of the human condition. I'm a writer, you know. (*dismissive wank*)
When I went to Wrigley Field for two of the Brewers games there this week I ended up doing this quite a bit. I found out, to my extreme delight, that my lady friend shares the same hobby and will laugh at the stupid things that people say. (And then get entirely too angry about the stupid things that people say.) For instance, there is this Miller Lite sign in right field on one of the rooftops. Last season it read "We prefer a pennant race to a sausage race" and now that the Cubs are terrible again it reads "The brat stops here." I, of course, complained about this. It doesn't make any sense. I mean, the Brewers play at Miller Park. MillerCoors shouldn't be making fun of a team that they sponsor a stadium for. Do they think that Brewers fans are never going to see it? Why can't they make fun of the Cardinals? It's a joke. Anyways, at the game there are these doucheholes sitting behind us who are just saying stupid thing after stupid thing. We laugh at them, then we laugh again and then we think about leaving early just to get away from them. It's just too much, these guys are world class douchebags. Then one of them, to my horror, notices the same sign and starts to say many of the same thing as I did. It's weird how my own thoughts are echoed through this idiot's mouth and I start to think way too much about it. Am I this big of a douche too? Does she just figure that out? Am I getting left here? I didn't even get to do the weird stuff! And just as I'm about to begin defending myself in a desperate attempt to save myself, they do it for me.
"It's weird, you know, because the Brewers are owned by Miller. That's why they're called the Brewers because Miller owns them."
And they're called the Cubs because Wrigley chewing gum owns them. Of course. Read the rest of this entry »

Why did I not blog this weekend?
a) I knew there was some possibility I would alienate my Giants fan readers with my Brauny doting and Nyjer Morgan apologist-ness.
b) Well, I was sort of sleeping most of time.
c) I was watching girls-night movies like 10 Things I Hate About You and Winter's Bone (you figure out which one of those doesn't make sense in the sentence).
d) Because we had a lovely 13 hour power outage. During which I decided I was going to open a rival company because PG&E goes out way too much and they have terrible costumer service to boot but then realized I don't really exactly know what they do, so I might need to do some research before I pursue this line of work.
This series reminded me why I do really love it when the Giants face the Brewers. They were tight, well-matched games with players I love on both sides and Ryan absolutely tore it up in the two games he played (he sat on Friday) but San Francisco still took the series.
It made me wish they played more often- this is the last of two series they played this year – and I actually started to create a pitch to convince Major League Baseball that Milwaukee is totally in the west and that's the realignment we need. But after a while I decided that was not a purposeful way of spending my time so I just sat back and enjoyed the ballgame.
The Giants looked good. Like, really good. And I came to a realization that I am a fan of good teams. Now that weirded me out. We all know the Giants were good last year and everything but that had the vague makings of a fluke. Whatever happens this year, it's July 24th and they're making a serious run of this. They are that team that opposing teams maybe aren't so stoked about facing. Before you give me the, Late to the party, sister, line, realize that I grew up with a notion that the Giants were kind of lame. And for a good part of my pretty short life, they have been. These days, they feel like something akin to a perennial pennant contender.
The offense isn't exactly rockin' (what else is new?), but the pitching is and they are totally winning ballgames.
So if you don't mind I'll just check out a few more of these modern-day-version-of-something high school movies, sit back and marinate in Ryan Braun home runs and the fact that I am a fan of the defending World Champions. This is all starting to freak me out to the point that I want to become a full time Pirates fan, but then I remember the Pirates are actually good and I end up somewhere on the other side of freaked out.
Catch y'all later. I hope we meet the Crew again in the playoffs. And I hope the dress code is strict for the whole White House thing today. Sorry, Wilson. I'm thinking more boho-chic than hobo-chic.
Diamond Girl
p.s. I think Nyjer Morgan was really, truly, actually doing the Tony Plush sign.
p.p.s. Nope, me and my "I Love U, Ryan Braun" sign were not there. I Object to $26 standing room tickets with a capital O.

- LOVE IT Review by Voter23
Price Value Quality I've said it a million times, and I'll say it again... BEST ANTIPERSPIRANT EVER. Skeptical? Just try it!
- The best antiperspirant. EVER. Review by KL23
Price Value Quality I have had to deal with the embarrassing problem of excessive under arm perspiration since I was a teenager. I would buy different types of drugstore brand antiperspirants and nothing ever worked to solve the problem. In my 20s I would try and mask the sweating by wearing a lot of dark colors. It wasn't until I was invited to a summer wedding that I decided to try something outside of the drugstore. I'd read good reviews for this product but was still skeptical. Even though the price was 5 times what I was normally paying, I decided to give it a try. That was 2 years ago. This product is PHENOMENAL!!! Sweaty pits are no longer an issue for this gal! I can honestly say that this product has changed my life. It has brought color into my wardrobe (ha-ha) and confidence to my every day life. Thank you DERMAdoctor! Really. Thank you!
- Non irritating Review by Jan
Quality Price Value I've been using this product for years and would recommend giving it a try if you have bad reactions to store brands. I can no longer tolerate any other brand antiperspirant, as they all cause severe itching, rashes, lumps, and rawness. I don't know what's in (or NOT in) Total Non Scents, but I've had no irritation from it at all. On the down side, this product is quite expensive, especially since you have to buy it online and add shipping costs. I try to watch for discount opportunities and buy multiples.
- GREAT Review by Shannie
Quality Price Value I have tried everything, I mean everything and this is the best! Thank you so much!
- It didn't work for me Review by Britt
Quality Price Value Sadly, this product did not work well for me. I'm always super sweaty and found that total nonscents didn't exactly help, but everybody's chemicals and stuff is different so that doesn't necessarily mean that it won't work for anyone else.
- The only thing that works Review by Super-sensitive skin
Quality Price Value A few years ago, I started developing rashes under my arms. I changed my soap so that it was unscented, all-natural, and good for sensitive skin, but that didn't help. So I realized it was my antiperspirant and consulted my dermatologist, who recommended switching to Dove ultra-sensitive, which also didn't help. So I gave up on antiperspirant and used Tom's scent free deodorant. That is, until I Googled and found Total Nonscents. It's the only antiperspirant that doesn't make me break out into hives and rashes. It's certainly not cheap, and it isn't the most effective, but it's the only product that works for me!
- thank you for developing Total Non Scents! Review by ML, North Carolina, USA
Quality Price Value I received my order for Total Nonscents. I am very pleased with your product. I have only been able to use Allercreme for many years and when it was discontinued I didn't know what to do. I found your website and read about Total Nonscents and to be honest I was very skeptical. I had tried 2 of Almay products and after only one use I was breaking out. So I decided to give Total Nonscents a try anyway and am very glad I did. I have used you product for a week now and have had not irritation. It is not quite the same as Allercreme, but it works for me, and I am so glad I found you! Your product must truly be TOTAL NON SCENTS!!
- As effective as Certain Dri Review by MM, Austin, TX USA
Quality Price Value The only antiperspirant that was effective for me was Certain Dri, but it was horribly irritating. Total NonScents is as effective as Certain Dri, but is not at all irritating. Thanks for developing this product!
- Something that finally works!!!! Review by Washington, DC
Quality Price Value I had been trying several different deordorants for years and nothing seemed to be strong enough for me. Most deordorants make my underarms feel very dry and itchy and sometimes I can feel lumps. Since I tried Total Nonscents Antiperspirant I haven't had any problems. It controls ordor and wetness and overall my underarms feel very smooth now. Thank you for creating this wonderful product.
- The best antiperspirant ever! Review by WKR, California
Quality Price Value Nothing has worked for me. I was about to get botox under my arms ($600-$1000) but thought i'd try one last product. I can't believe it, no wet cicles on my shirts since using it, and it's been very warm. Thank you.

Sheer Collar Halter Dress
cute little black dress
I ordered both a Medium and Large because I wanted to make sure I had a perfect fit. I am 5'7" and 135 lbs and the Medium fit perfectly, whereas the Large was way too big in the bust area (I normally wear 34B bra size, so if you are bigger busted, it might be a better fit). The dress is simple and classy and the fabric is of quality (lining is made of silk). The only caveat I would mention is the hook & eye that sits right on top of the zipper, is really hard to clasp, almost impossible. Would definitely recommend though.

Sheer Perfection!
I received this dress in the mail today and I can't tell you how excited I am about it! It is just amazing. The fit is perfect. The length is just right. It's classy and well made and I can't wait to wear it.
I ordered a small and I am 5'7" tall, 115 lbs. I LOVE that the length isn't so terribly short. Many of Bebe's dresses I won't wear because the length is too short. This one is about 3 inches above the knee.... just like I like them.
I highly recommend this dress. I think this one will be my "High School Reunion" dress! :)

How to start a fire in a charcoal grill
Food June 5th, 2009
A few weeks ago I went to the Brewers game with some friends from work. One of the girls I work with brought her boyfriend who brought his grill. My original thinking when I saw this was "sweet, now I can just drink and mess around while this dude cooks." However, after about five minutes I realized this dude had no idea what he was doing. It was a mess. Pouring the lighter fluid on the coals without removing the cooking surface, rearranging the coals once it was starting to go, covering the top completely. It was a mess and I just couldn't believe that someone wouldn't know this. It drove me nuts. So I guided him along and when everything was all said and done we all enjoyed some lighter fluid tasting burgers. Hooray.
Here's the thing, I don't want to do this again. It wasn't fun. I don't want to have to show people how to do these things. This is something that people of a certain age should know. I don't know how to clean a fish. It's embarassing, but it's true. It's embarassing because I should know how to do it. Before the next time I go fishing, I'm going to figure it out. I'm going to go on google and figure it out and then when I'm out there doing it wrong and my friend says something to me I can say "oh man, it's been awhile" and play it off. That's what this is for you, dude that doesn't know how to start a grill. Try to remember what you can and when you screw it up and someone says something to you, you can just go "oh man, first tailgate of the year" and everything will be all good.
- First of all, if you don't know what you are doing buy the self-starting coals. A piece of paper, some matches and you're done.
- If you don't get those however, here's how you do it. Build your coals in a pyramid-esque shape, only flat at the top, Like an A without the ^.
- Pour some lighter fluid if you want, but paper works a lot better. Not notebook paper, but like a paper bag that you get from the grocery store. This will get your coals going. Maybe a little lighter fluid, but don't overdo it. Try and remember that it is GAS and gas tastes like crap.
- Once it gets going, don't mess with it. Leave it alone. Put the cover on, but only half way. Or leave the vent open on top if it's a windy day. Don't move them around, don't do anything. Just let them burn. Drink a beer.
- They are ready when they all look ashy grey and they are warm. I feel ridiculous even writing this.
- Coals last longer than you think they do, you don't need to add more. Here's how you know your coals aren't good anymore: they aren't there anymore. That's how you know you need to add more.
- Dispose of them properly. Nobody thinks a dumpster fire is funny. It's really just annoying.
So, you got that? You can skip half of those and as long as you remember not to mess with them and take the grill part off, we're fine. Seriously.

The traditions of the elders. (1-13) What defiles the man. (14-23) The woman of Canaan's daughter cured. (24-30) Christ restores a man to hearing and speech. (31-37)
Verses 1-13 One great design of Christ's coming was, to set aside the ceremonial law; and to make way for this, he rejects the ceremonies men added to the law of God's making. Those clean hands and that pure heart which Christ bestows on his disciples, and requires of them, are very different from the outward and superstitious forms of Pharisees of every age. Jesus reproves them for rejecting the commandment of God. It is clear that it is the duty of children, if their parents are poor, to relieve them as far as they are able; and if children deserve to die that curse their parents, much more those that starve them. But if a man conformed to the traditions of the Pharisees, they found a device to free him from the claim of this duty.
Verses 14-23 Our wicked thoughts and affections, words and actions, defile us, and these only. As a corrupt fountain sends forth corrupt streams, so does a corrupt heart send forth corrupt reasonings, corrupt appetites and passions, and all the wicked words and actions that come from them. A spiritual understanding of the law of God, and a sense of the evil of sin, will cause a man to seek for the grace of the Holy Spirit, to keep down the evil thoughts and affections that work within.
Verses 24-30 Christ never put any from him that fell at his feet, which a poor trembling soul may do. As she was a good woman, so a good mother. This sent her to Christ. His saying, Let the children first be filled, shows that there was mercy for the Gentiles, and not far off. She spoke, not as making light of the mercy, but magnifying the abundance of miraculous cures among the Jews, in comparison with which a single cure was but as a crumb. Thus, while proud Pharisees are left by the blessed Saviour, he manifests his compassion to poor humbled sinners, who look to him for children's bread. He still goes about to seek and save the lost.
Verses 31-37 Here is a cure of one that was deaf and dumb. Those who brought this poor man to Christ, besought him to observe the case, and put forth his power. Our Lord used more outward actions in the doing of this cure than usual. These were only signs of Christ's power to cure the man, to encourage his faith, and theirs that brought him. Though we find great variety in the cases and manner of relief of those who applied to Christ, yet all obtained the relief they sought. Thus it still is in the great concerns of our souls.
Mark 7:1-23 . DISCOURSE ON CEREMONIAL POLLUTION. ( = Matthew 15:1-20 ).
Mark 7:24-37 . THE SYROPHOENICIAN WOMAN AND HER DAUGHTER--A DEAF AND DUMB MAN HEALED. ( = Matthew 15:21-31 ).
The Syrophoenician Woman and Her Daughter ( Mark 7:24-30 ).
The first words of this narrative show that the incident followed, in point of time, immediately on what precedes it.
24. And from thence he arose, and went into the borders--or "unto the borders."
of Tyre and Sidon--the two great Phoenician seaports, but here denoting the territory generally, to the frontiers of which Jesus now came. But did Jesus actually enter this heathen territory? The whole narrative, we think, proceeds upon the supposition that He did. His immediate object seems to have been to avoid the wrath of the Pharisees at the withering exposure He had just made of their traditional religion.
and entered into an house, and would have no man know it--because He had not come there to minister to heathens. But though not "sent but to the lost sheep of the house of Israel" ( Matthew 15:24 ), He hindered not the lost sheep of the vast Gentile world from coming to Him, nor put them away when they did come--as this incident was designed to show.
but he could not be hid--Christ's fame had early spread from Galilee to this very region ( 3:8 , Luke 6:17 ).
25. For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit--or, as in Matthew ( Matthew 15:22 ), "was badly demonized."
heard of him--One wonders how; but distress is quick of hearing.
26. The woman was a Greek--that is, "a Gentile," as in the Margin.
a Syrophoenician by nation--so called as inhabiting the Phoenician tract of Syria. JUVENAL uses the same term, as was remarked by JUSTIN MARTYR and TERTULLIAN. Matthew ( Matthew 15:22 ) calls her "a woman of Canaan"--a more intelligible description to his Jewish readers (compare Judges 1:30 Judges 1:32 Judges 1:33 ).
and she besought him that he would east forth the devil out of her daughter--"She cried unto Him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David: my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil" ( Matthew 15:22 ). Thus, though no Israelite herself, she salutes Him as Israel's promised Messiah. Here we must go to Matthew 15:23-25 for some important links in the dialogue omitted by our Evangelist.
Matthew 15:23 :
But he answered her not a word--The design of this was first, perhaps, to show that He was not sent to such as she. He had said expressly to the Twelve, "Go not into the way of the Gentiles" ( Matthew 10:5 ); and being now among them Himself, He would, for consistency's sake, let it be seen that He had not gone thither for missionary purposes. Therefore He not only kept silence, but had actually left the house, and--as will presently appear--was proceeding on His way back, when this woman accosted Him. But another reason for keeping silence plainly was to try and whet her faith, patience, and perseverance. And it had the desired effect: "She cried after them," which shows that He was already on His way from the place.
And His disciples came and besought Him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us--They thought her troublesome with her importunate cries, just as they did the people who brought young children to be blessed of Him, and they ask their Lord to "send her away," that is, to grant her request and be rid of her; for we gather from His reply that they meant to solicit favor for her, though not for her sake so much as their own.Matthew 15:24 :
But He answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel--a speech evidently intended for the disciples themselves, to satisfy them that, though the grace He was about to show to this Gentile believer was beyond His strict commission, He had not gone spontaneously to dispense it. Yet did even this speech open a gleam of hope, could she have discerned it. For thus might she have spoken: "I am not SENT, did He say? Truth, Lord, Thou comest not hither in quest of us, but I come in quest of Thee; and must I go empty away? So did not the woman of Samaria, whom when Thou foundest her on Thy way to Galilee, Thou sentest away to make many rich! But this our poor Syrophoenician could not attain to. What, then, can she answer to such a speech? Nothing. She has reached her lowest depth, her darkest moment: she will just utter her last cry:Matthew 15:25 :
Then came she and worshipped Him, saying, Lord, help me!--This appeal, so artless, wrung from the depths of a believing heart, and reminding us of the publican's "God be merciful to me a sinner," moved the Redeemer at last to break silence--but in what style? Here we return to our own Evangelist.
27. But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled--"Is there hope for me here? . . . Filled FIRST?" "Then my turn, it seems, is coming! "--but then, "The CHILDREN first? . . . Ah! when, on that rule, shall my turn ever come!" But ere she has time for these ponderings of His word, another word comes to supplement it.
for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs--Is this the death of her hopes? Nay, rather it is life from the dead. Out of the eater shall come forth meat ( Judges 14:14 ). "At evening-time, it shall be light" ( Zechariah 14:7 ). "Ah! I have it now. Had He kept silence, what could I have done but go unblest? but He hath spoken, and the victory is mine."
28. And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord--or, as the same word is rendered in Matthew 15:27 . "Truth, Lord."
yet the dogs eat of the children's crumbs--which fall from their master's table" ( Matthew 15:27 ). "I thank Thee, O blessed One, for that word! That's my whole case. Not of the children? True. A dog? True also: Yet the dogs under the table are allowed to eat of the children's crumbs--the droppings from their master's full table: Give me that, and I am content: One crumb of power and grace from Thy table shall cast the devil out of my daughter." Oh, what lightning quickness, what reach of instinctive ingenuity, do we behold in this heathen woman!
29. And he said unto her--"O woman, great is thy faith" ( Matthew 15:28 ). As BENGEL beautifully remarks, Jesus "marvelled" only at two things--faith and unbelief (see Luke 7:9 ).
For this saying go thy way; the devil is gone out of thy daughter--That moment the deed was done.
30. And when she was come to her house, she found the devil gone out, and her daughter laid upon the bed--But Matthew ( Matthew 15:28 ) is more specific; "And her daughter was made whole from that very hour." The wonderfulness of this case in all its features has been felt in every age of the Church, and the balm it has administered, and will yet administer, to millions will be known only in that day that shall reveal the secrets of all hearts.
Deaf and Dumb Man Healed ( Mark 7:31-37 ).
31. And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, he came unto the Sea of Galilee--or, according to what has very strong claims to be regarded as the true text here, "And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre, He came through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee." The manuscripts in favor of this reading, though not the most numerous, are weighty, while the versions agreeing with it are among the most ancient; and all the best critical editors and commentators adopt it. In this case we must understand that our Lord, having once gone out of the Holy Land the length of Tyre, proceeded as far north as Sidon, though without ministering, so far as appears, in those parts, and then bent His steps in a southeasterly direction. There is certainly a difficulty in the supposition of so long a detour without any missionary object: and some may think this sufficient to cast the balance in favor of the received reading. Be this as it may, on returning from these coasts of Tyre, He passed
through the midst of the coasts--frontiers.
of Decapolis--crossing the Jordan, therefore, and approaching the lake on its east side. Here Matthew, who omits the details of the cure of this deaf and dumb man, introduces some particulars, from which we learn that it was only one of a great number. "And Jesus," says that Evangelist ( Matthew 15:29-31 ), "departed from thence, and came nigh unto the Sea of Galilee, and went up into a mountain"--the mountain range bounding the lake on the northeast, in Decapolis: "And great multitudes came unto Him, having with them lame, blind, dumb, maimed"--not "mutilated," which is but a secondary sense of the word, but "deformed"--"and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and He healed them: insomuch that the multitude [multitudes] wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see; and they glorified the God of Israel"--who after so long and dreary an absence of visible manifestation, had returned to bless His people as of old (compare Luke 7:16 ). Beyond this it is not clear from the Evangelist's language that the people saw into the claims of Jesus. Well, of these cases Mark here singles out one, whose cure had something peculiar in it.
32. And they bring unto him one that was deaf . . . and they beseech him to put his hand upon him--In their eagerness they appear to have been somewhat too officious. Though usually doing as here suggested, He will deal with this case in His own way.
33. And he took him aside from the multitude--As in another case He "took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the town" ( Mark 8:23 ), probably to fix his undistracted attention on Himself, and, by means of certain actions He was about to do, to awaken and direct his attention to the proper source of relief.
and put his fingers into his ears--As his indistinct articulation arose from his deafness, our Lord addresses Himself to this first. To the impotent man He said, "Wilt thou be made whole?" to the blind men, "What will ye that I shall do unto you?" and "Believe ye that I am able to do this?" ( John 5:6 , Matthew 20:32 , 9:28 ). But as this patient could hear nothing, our Lord substitutes symbolical actions upon each of the organs affected.
and he spit and touched his tongue--moistening the man's parched tongue with saliva from His own mouth, as if to lubricate the organ or facilitate its free motion; thus indicating the source of the healing virtue to be His own person. (For similar actions, see 8:23 , John 9:6 ).
34. And looking up to heaven--ever acknowledging His Father, even while the healing was seen to flow from Himself
he sighed--"over the wreck," says TRENCH, "which sin had brought about, and the malice of the devil in deforming the fair features of God's original creation." But, we take it, there was a yet more painful impression of that "evil thing and bitter" whence all our ills have sprung, and which, when "Himself took our infirmities and bare our sicknesses" ( Matthew 8:17 ), became mysteriously His own.
"In thought of these his brows benign, Not even in healing, cloudless shine." KEBLE |
35. And straightway his ears were opened--This is mentioned first as the source of the other derangement.
and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain--The cure was thus alike instantaneous and perfect.
36. And he charged them that they should tell no man--Into this very region He had sent the man out of whom had been cast the legion of devils, to proclaim "what the Lord had done for him" ( Mark 5:19 ). Now He will have them "tell no man." But in the former case there was no danger of obstructing His ministry by "blazing the matter" ( Mark 1:45 ), as He Himself had left the region; whereas now He was sojourning in it.
but the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal they published it--They could not be restrained; nay, the prohibition seemed only to whet their determination to publish His fame.
37. And were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well--reminding us, says TRENCH, Of the words of the first creation ( Genesis 1:31 , Septuagint), upon which we are thus not unsuitably thrown back, for Christ's work is in the truest sense "a new creation,"
he maketh both the deaf to hear and the dumb to speak--"and they glorified the God of Israel" ( Matthew 15:31 ).

Plus Winners and Jerks of the Week
The launch of the city's festival season started with a bang at RiverSplash!— unfortunately. What's typically a fun night out turned into a disorderly scene in which a minority of drunken jerks put the safety of the majority at risk. Mayor Tom Barrett, Alderman Bob Bauman and Milwaukee Police Chief Edward Flynn are considering their options for next year, and we can only wonder how the rest of this summer's ethnic, neighborhood and street festivals will be affected. It would be a shame if the bad press generated by just a few irresponsible yahoos deterred festival-goers from enjoying everything this great city has to offer.

Charlotte, NC (SportsNetwork.com) - Former Sprint Cup Series champion Dale Jarrett and legendary engine builder Maurice Petty of the famous auto racing Petty family were among the fifth five-member class inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame on Wednesday night.
Drivers Tim Flock, also a former Cup champion, Jack Ingram and Glenn "Fireball" Roberts were inducted during the two-hour ceremony as well.
Petty, the chief engine builder for Petty Enterprises, powered his brother, Richard Petty, to most of his record 200 wins and all seven of his championships in NASCAR's premier series. He became the first engine builder as well as the fourth member of the Petty family to be enshrined into the NASCAR HofF, joining Richard, father Lee Petty and cousin Dale Inman.
"It's an honor and a privilege for me to be inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame," Maurice Petty said. "Who would have thought growing up that there would be four of us out of a small, rural country community that would be in the [NASCAR] Hall of Fame."
Petty was the first person to be enshrined. He was inducted by Richard, who is a member of the NASCAR HofF 2010 inaugural class.
Jarrett is the 1999 Cup champion, a three-time Daytona 500 winner and two-time winner of the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. He currently serves as a commentator for ESPN and ABC's coverage of NASCAR. Jarrett's father, Ned, is a two-time champion in NASCAR's top series and was inducted into the HofF in 2011. They became the third father-son duo inducted, following Bill France Sr. and Bill France Jr., as well as Lee and Richard/Maurice Petty.
"My dad has been everything a son would want his father to be - successful, a leader by example, a teacher you can believe in and always there to support me," an emotional Jarrett said during his induction speech. "My dad was and still is today my hero. That's what really makes this night so very special. I'm joining my father in the NASCAR Hall of Fame."
Jarrett was inducted by his longtime friend and country music artist Blake Shelton.
Before the inception of the NASCAR Busch Series in 1982, which is now known as the Nationwide Series, Ingram won three consecutive championships, from 1972-74, in its precursor -- the Late Model Sportsman Division. He captured the first Busch title in '82 and again in '85. All but two of Ingram's 31 career wins in the series came on short tracks.
Ingram's fellow competitor, Harry Gant, inducted him.
"I'm honored to be here tonight beyond words," Ingram said. "This is a major lifetime achievement for me. While I've won driving the car, I had plenty of help and support along the way. Otherwise I wouldn't be here tonight."
Roberts and Flock were both honored posthumously.
Roberts, who got his legendary nickname, Fireball, from his days as a pitcher in high school, is arguably the first superstar in NASCAR. During Roberts' career, he won seven races at Daytona International Speedway, starting with the Firecracker 250 in the summer of 1959, the year the speedway opened. His lone Daytona 500 victory came in 1962. He also won the Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway in 1958 and '63. Roberts died 39 days after an accident during the 1964 World 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
Waddell Wilson, who was Roberts' former engine builder, inducted him. Roberts' grandson, Matt McDaniel, accepted the honor.
"We are proud that our grandfather, who sacrificed his life to racing, is being honored by NASCAR, the organization that set the scene for a life well lived," McDaniel said.
Flock was one of the first dominant drivers in NASCAR. He won two Cup titles and recorded 39 race victories during his career. Flock's first championship came in 1952. When he claimed his second title in 1955, his 18 race wins stood as a single-season victory record until Richard Petty surpassed it with 27 wins in 1967. Flock died in 1998 at the age of 73.
"He would be so proud and humbled to receive this honor tonight and is still remembered for his racing career," said Frances Flock, Tim's widow. "I would like to thank NASCAR, the [NASCAR] Hall of Fame and all of his friends and fans who voted for him. I am very flattered that Tim was selected to be a part of NASCAR's legend class."
Flock was inducted by former Charlotte Motor Speedway president and general manager H.A. "Humpy" Wheeler.
During the induction ceremony, the second Squier-Hall Award for NASCAR Media Excellence was awarded to Chris Economaki. Known as the "Dean of American Motorsports," Economaki was the editor, publisher and columnist for National Speed Sport News for more than 60 years, a weekly racing publication he began selling at racetracks at the age of 14. He began his television broadcast career with ABC in 1961 and with CBS Sports helped make the Daytona 500 one of racing's marquee events. Economaki was 91 years old when he passed away in 2012.
