The things you can buy to make a river are SO cool! And the Mickey Christmas tree is great!
And I love the new rooms you can buy.
Is anyone else having trouble with the new rooms loading really slow? And the HM game? Or is it just my computer?

I think what the editorial writer was getting at is that the legislature can actually operate more productively and address real issues if it was set up differently. In other provinces, legislation goes before a committee, where it is examined clause by clause, prior to going to the full house. This would occur out of the glare of the spotlight around a committee table, and it usually results in much more productive discussion among MHAs. Quite often, legislation comes out differently than it went in, and it is a much better quality product before it goes to the debate/vote in the full house, and therefore better legislation. Sadly, we don't have a tradition of doing this in NL. Premier Dunderdale unfortunately is satisfied with the status quo, so we won't see it any time soon. It's the kind of thing that would take real leadership to change.

Whether a waste of time or not, and it was their own time they were spending, it was both necessary and a duty of the members of opposition parties. We condemn them when they accede to government's majority, like when the mill was expropriated, yet they get pilloried by some when they do oppose. My concern, as Maurice stated, is that they had ample time to take a principled stand months ago, based on ample knowledge that this is a deeply-flawed project. It is a colossal waste of money for such a minor return bout who cares...we, the consumers will pay. Actually, it will cause grave harm to our fiscal situation, as we will have far less money available to spend or save going forward. People need to realize that this is going to drain billions from our treasury every year for the next several years while we gain very little by way of power. The politicians of all parties seem unaware of that harsh reality.
- It was a Joke

It was a complete waste of time. It was another page in the ongoing drama of Newfie politics. Where all the members put on an act of how they are standing up for the people but behind closed doors they work together to make things as easy as possible for themselves. Yes sir, they all talked about working through Christmas (wink, wink) - that didn't happen. Kind of like how they were serious about public spending while working together to hide the constituency spending scandal. It always has been, and always will be, the poilitcians against the public. The party lines are just for show.

I beg to differ. We all knew the legislation would pass, however the fillibuster brought attention to government. That in itself is positive and this column is evidence to it. I believe the public learned valuable information about the bill, that would not have been noticed especially prior to Christmas. It even gave us more insight to a few MHA's and will help in deciding who to vote for in the next election. I guess, it's a matter of perspective whether you think it was a valuable exercise. Remember, "the Opposition gets its' say and the government gets its' way" ALWAYS

The only benefit was that for the few that followed the event and had not already acquired a reasonable understanding of the some of the problems and risks associated with Muskrat Falls, it no doubt was somewhat helpful. But on the whole, it was --- too little, too late. The process, the hidden tax, the rationale, the decision to proceed with Muskrat Falls had effectively been made years ago ---- and all this about "not yet sanctioned" was disingenuous and disrespectful of voters/citizens/ratepayers. Government should be ashamed of itself and the opposition was weak and should have done much, much more --- many, many months, and even years, earlier. Not a good year for NL democracy. The premier said that this was the "fortunate generation" ---- because it will be future generations that will pay the price.

There is a virtual renaissance going on in the game industry right now. Gaming technology has become so universal and so ubiquitous in our everyday lives that we might not even notice it anymore, but things that were on the absolute cutting edge just five to eight years ago are standard practice in modern society.
One of the clearest examples of this is showcased when you take a trip to just about any hospital—or even your local doctor's office. Doctor's offices are finding ways to cut costs and provide superior care by implementing different technologies into their offices. Many practices are using tablets to a larger and larger degree that owe a lot of their development costs to the gaming industry of the mid to late 90s. These devices allow them to streamline the entire doctor visit so as to best allocate the doctor's time, which is incredibly valuable.
And today, students who are studying to go into the dental or medical practice are using innovative technologies that allow them to do experimental, virtual surgeries via computers and simulations.
Consider the very costly and in depth surgery of doing dental implants. Doctors doing dental implants in Pontiac are now experimenting with virtual surgeries that can prepare students for the real event that not only decreases on the total time that a doctor must be physically present, but can provide a student with the kind of hands of experience that he or she might not otherwise get in a typical shadowing program. This kind of experience is invaluable to doctors, students, and patients alike.
Obviously I haven't personally tried any of these programs, but the concept is absolutely brilliant. After all, the military has been applying these kinds of gaming technologies to the training of troops for a number of years now. If it works for them, is there any to reason why it wouldn't work for other professions? I don't see why not. Obviously, a combat-ready soldier is doing much different work than a surgeon for dental implants in Auburn Hills, but the concept is still sound: applying a virtual experience to real-life situations.
New technologies like this always give me a smirk because it is a big laugh for anyone who was told growing up that "Playing video games will rot your brain." Well, the very technology that was "rotting my brain" ten years ago is now being used to save other peoples' brains. It is a little bit of selfish gratification on my part.
And if we are using these technologies for surgeries and military training today, just think about what we will be using them for in the future. It is quite literally limitless. Now with the production and manufacturing of drones and similar technologies we may even have robots be performing dental and local oral surgeries. Who knows? All I know is that it is an exciting time to be involved in the gaming and technology world.
And it all based in some of the basic software's that were developed for gaming.

Not long ago, I published the press release for the OPI Glitter Off Base Coat on here, and you'll remember that I was really intrigued by the concept, especially considering that I haven't tried any of the do-it-yourself PVA glue base coats.
Designed to be worn on your natural nail, the OPI Glitter Off Base Coat is supposed to protect the nails from stains while also making it easy for you to simply peel off heavy-duty glitter nail polish. You can forego using removers and scrubbing your nails raw.
I really put this new OPI base coat to the test because when I was moving to my new home and had to unpack a lot of cardboard boxes, I was wearing this underneath OPI Blush Hour, an unapologetic glitterbomb from the OPI Spotlight on Glitter Collection!
Note: I will update this post soon to show you photos of the brush and the polish's consistency.
Edit: (April 7, 2014) I updated this post to also include the full ingredient list since a lot of readers were interested.

I live just north of Beaumont and since Rita hit we have had tons of stickers growing in the yard and its very invasive! I think the seeds blow in from the gulfcoast beaches. Does anyone know how to get rid of it?
Please help! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi Ninasada, Improve your soil and fertilize to deter them. They are weeds and don't care for fertile soil. I bet Rita washed away your good topsoil and exposed the seeds. I've also read that keeping the lawn mowed short will cut off the plant before it blooms and creates those nasty stickers. HTH |

And THAT's the TRUTH! Run get some 21-0-0, or 13-13-13. Either will do. Sprinkle out where you have those stickers and they will die quick. Janie |
Pull them up and seal the plants in bio-hazard bags. Just kidding, sort of. LOL They are in our alley and every year, I must pull them in a direct line from the back gate to the back door. There is something very satisfing about pulling them up, sealing them in a plastic bag and sending them to the dumpster. |
- Posted by maden_theshade 8 - Austin (My Page) on Mon, May 14, 07 at 22:38
We had tons of stickers in the yard growing up and the only way to get rid of them was to pull them up one by one. Make sure you bag them up securely and throw them away. Do not compost them or burn them, you could still have seeds make it through the process. If you try to use a chemical, you may kill the plant but will not kill all the seeds left behind in the soil. It make take a few seasons, but if you are diligent you will get rid of them. Start asap so they don't multiply! |
I read this idea somewhere and thought it was creative- to pick up the stickers drag an old blanket or towel over the area to collect the stickers/seeds. Discard. Treat plants with your choice of plantacide. |

I am blessed with a wonderful daughter and three amazing grand kids. I have a 17 year old grandson, and a 13 and 3 year old granddaughters. I am very close to my family and since I am self-employed see them quite often.
My favorite things to do are cook, read, spend time with my family, church events and friends. I have recently been working on a healthier life and have lost approximately 50 pounds. I would like to lose about 20 more. In order to make this work I am now working out at the gym two or three times a week. Naturally, my cooking has changed....at least for the everyday things.
I love cookbooks by Ina Garten and Bobby Flay. One of my favorite TV shows is Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. One of the best things to do is read cookbooks, even if I'm not going to cook anything. My daughter and sister think I'm crazy, but my niece loves reading them too.
There are too many to list. I like savory things a little more than sweets unless you are talking chocolate. I am definitely not a vegan, love meat but mostly now it's chicken in it's many forms.
One of my favorite Christmas things is a Wine Cake that my family always asks for no matter what.
With my new lifestyle I'm doing a lot more lite recipes and some are great and some won't happen again. Love Cooking Light and Weight Watchers for recipes that work for me now.

Though their lists probably don't have much overlap, like those occupying downtown Manhattan, there are lot of things with which Mayor Mike Bloomberg has beef.

The temptations of his one true love, salt.1 Others, which chap his hide in not an insignificant way, he just has to live with. Water.2 People who can't enjoy a nice snowy day. Pictures of himself looking less than svelte.3 Interior design lacking chairs upholstered in leopard print.4 So when he says he get totally gets people being so pissed off about various things they feel like they're just gonna snap and go on a rampage burning every fat photo ever taken of them (…as a for instance), he really means it.

text: Assistant Managing Editor GREATER SPRINGFIELD National Kidney Month may have passed with the end of March but the health of these vital organs is paramount year-round. One in 26 million Americans have chronic kidney disease and 93,877 people on the United Network for Organ Sharing's transplant wait list, the highest number for any organ on the list by more than 76,000 applicants. The National Kidney Foundation's New England Chapter is expanding its operations in Western Massachusetts and helping to raise awareness with periodic health screenings the next on April 9 and a 5K walk in Forest Park in Springfield this summer. "I always tell my patients, God was benevolent when it came to kidneys and he gave us two one more than we need," Dr. Jonathan Slater of Pioneer Valley Nephrology in Springfield, said. He was quick to note that although most people are born with two or an extra, so to speak, that doesn't mean they should take it for granted, especially those with diabetes or high blood pressure, which are the number one and two causes of kidney disease, respectively. "A healthy lifestyle helps the kidneys and overlaps with cardiovascular health, including blood pressure control, weight control, good diet, blood sugar control and not smoking," Slater explained. He called the kidneys "a blood cleaning machine," which works non-stop everyday and is vital to each person's overall long-term health. Slater explained that kidneys face other problems such as stones, which "can cause irreversible kidney damage" but that many steps can be taken to "impact the natural health of the kidney over time." Filomena Fiore, regional event director for the National Kidney Foundation's New England Chapter, said the best advice her organization offers people is to "make sure you know your family history and if you have high blood pressure make sure you know your numbers such as your GFR [glomerular filtration rate]. Kidney disease can be prevented with the right diet and exercise." The GFR is the indicator used to determine the stage of chronic kidney disease in patients. Fiore noted that funds raised from this year's Kidney Walk on June 5 would go toward public education and disease prevention programs. She said the foundation has set a fund-raising goal of $100,000 and 700 walkers participating. "I think all of us need to be reminded of our good fortune to be temporarily able. We have a responsibility as citizens and neighbors not to rely on government but our own volunteerism to be of help to those who are not and especially to eradicate these kinds of maladies," Dr. Evan Dobelle, honorary walk chair and president of Westfield State University, said. Registration for the Kidney Walk will begin at 9:30 a.m. and the walk will start at 10:30 a.m. To donate to this year's walk, to start a walk team or for more information, visit www.kidney.org or contact Fiore at firstname.lastname@example.com (860) 257-3770. The National Kidney Foundation's next free kidney health screening will take place April 9 from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Emerson Hall, Mason Square, 439 Union St., Springfield. Participants must be 18 years of age or older and must call (800) 441-1280 for an appointment. |

Epson Introduces Next-Generation SureColor Wide-Format Solvent Printer
February 14, 2012"Our first generation solvent printer—the Epson Stylus Pro GS6000—has been a game changer in the signage market over the last four years, bringing advanced image quality and an ink technology with less impact on the environment to the industry to open up a new range of applications for solvent printing," said Reed Hecht, product manager, Professional Imaging, Epson America, Inc. "The new SureColor S30670 offers advancements in print head and ink technology to deliver higher quality printing, faster and better, at an extreme overall value."
The SureColor S30670 utilizes an entirely new print engine featuring Epson's MicroPiezo TFP print head to deliver droplet sizes as small as 4.2 picoliters and double the nozzle density of Epson's previous solvent printer for extremely fast print speeds. The device is a four-color solvent printer (CMYK) leveraging new Epson UltraChrome GS2 solvent-based ink technology.
Developed exclusively by Epson, UltraChrome GS2 includes a newly formulated yellow ink that can produce prints with up to three years of outdoor durability without lamination. In addition, these new inks deliver virtually odorless printing without the need for external dryers, special ventilation or air purification systems, and do not contain Nickel (Ni) compounds, helping to reduce impact on the environment and potential harm to employees.
More About the SureColor S30670
Designed from the ground up, the SureColor S30670 introduces several new convenient features that help automate previously time-consuming processes, such as nozzle checks, media feed adjustments and media tensioning, and complicated print head alignments. Additional features include:
• MicroPiezo TFP Print Head: One-inch wide, high performance print head with 720 nozzles per color capable of handling four separate ink channels; low vibration meniscus control provides highly accurate dot shape and placement and ink repelling coating dramatically reduces nozzle clogging
• Fast Print Speeds: Capable of up to 619 square feet per hour in draft mode with a recommended production speed of 205 square feet per hour for normal signage production
• Take in and Take-Up Reel System: Efficient take-up reel for unattended production of large print runs supporting both wind-in or wind-out; standard motorized heavy roll support system in the rear will support up to a 90 pound roll; optional high-capacity roll support available for heavy rolls up to 150 pounds

The owner of Brown and Brown Chevrolet is considering moving the downtown Mesa dealership to a south East Valley auto mall.
AutoNation, which owns the dealership and 10 others in the East Valley, has had discussions with Chandler and Gilbert auto mall developers preparing to open sites along a future Santan Freeway stretch of Loop 202.
AutoNation spokesman Marc Cannon said any conversation is part of an ongoing process.
"We continue to look at opportunities in every marketplace and we're very excited about the greater Phoenix market," Cannon said. "We continue to explore different avenues that are available."
A relocation could be a big blow to downtown Mesa, taking workers and customers out of the redevelopment area, and costing Mesa sales tax revenue if the dealership leaves the city limits.
It would also leave a vacant site near the Mesa Arts Center that's set to open next year.
"They've been one of the great employers downtown for years," Mesa Mayor Keno Hawker said. "We'd hate to lose them."
Brown and Brown Chevrolet, 145 E. Main Street, opened 75 years ago, according to its Web site.
Gilbert Santan Motorplex developer Bill Lund said he has talked to AutoNation about the downtown Brown and Brown dealership. The Gilbert auto mall is under construction at Val Vista Drive and the Santan Freeway.
Chandler 202 Auto Park spokeswoman Teri Morris, who represents Kimco Developers and De Rito Partners Development, said it was announced earlier this year that AutoNation would occupy 11.7 acres. It's unknown what dealership will occupy the AutoNation site at Gilbert Road and the Santan Freeway.
Sales tax incentives and convenient freeway access await any dealership that chooses Gilbert or Chandler. Both municipalities have agreed to rebate 50 percent of collected sales tax revenue through 2017 to the developers, which have private agreements with the dealers. Gilbert capped its incentive package at $60 million, while Chandler has an uncapped deal the city and developer estimate to be worth $40 million.
AutoNation has not initiated any discussions with Mesa about a possible move out of the downtown area, Mesa senior economic development specialist Harold Decker said. In addition, Mesa has had no written correspondence with AutoNation in the past six months, according to a Tribune records request.
A possible move of a Mesa Chevrolet dealership to a nearby auto mall was reported last month in a Miami (Fla.) Herald article. The article has since been published in other newspapers. The Herald article said that during a meeting in the Fort Lauderdale, Fla., office of the company's chairman and chief executive officer, a discussion started about the move. There was no further mention or details of a possible relocation.
Cannon said Mesa was one of a handful of examples used during the meeting to highlight AutoNation's method in determining whether to open a dealership.

In June 2008, Countrywide founder and CEO Angelo Mozilo stood before a group of CFC shareholders and, through salty tears, told them that Bank of America would "reap the benefits of what we have sowed." He wasn't kidding, and in the 4+ years since Ken Lewis paid $4 billion for the place, BofA has had the pleasure of ponying up an additional $40 billion (and counting) in write-downs and legal fees associated with cleaning up Countrywide's messes, while CEO Brian Moynihan has publicly described the acquisition as an albatross around his neck. Additionally, Ang Moz forked over $67.5 million in 2010 to "resolve SEC claims that he misled investors," and separately, there has been talk by some that Countrywide contributed in no small way to the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. In light of all that, does Ang Moz, have any regrets about the way his company was run? Not a fucking one and if he had to do it all over? He wouldn't change a thing. Read more »

If Citi's Ex-Hedge Fund Chief Had To Do It All Over Again He'd Still Invest Like No One Was Watching
By Bess LevinReaz Islam, who ran Citigroup hedge funds that lost most of their value in 2008, has "no regrets" about his performance and said "ambulance-chasing" lawyers are behind claims that he and the bank misled clients…The funds, now defunct, placed Citigroup at the center of a regulatory probe and a wave of litigation when they crashed four years ago. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or Finra, has ordered the bank to pay at least $60 million to some of the funds' investors, who said that Citigroup pitched them a safe, more profitable alternative to other fixed-income investments. There are 69 claims remaining, according to Philip Aidikoff, a lawyer for plaintiffs. "This was a high-volatility, high-return strategy and never a safe and riskless investment as claimed by a few rogue, ambulance-chasing attorneys," Islam said in an e-mail. "I have no regrets and obviously learned a lot from the crisis, notably to expect the unexpected at all times and how people change color in times of crisis." [Bloomberg]

YA!!! Got my monkeys today and they are sooo cute!! The only thing I don't like is you have to squeeze them to make them scream, then fling them. But a suppose you wouldn't want them constantly going off in your pocket or purse. I like.... Edit: I found out that 2 of the 3 I got stop screaming with you fling them. only 1 of them really work(squeeze to scream, fling, make cat run hissing out of the room) Should I try to get woot! to send me 2 more and send them back the 2 (broke) ones? or are there any even left..?
One of my 3 doesn't say "Woot" on the cape, instead is says "Montclair, Shop Montclair, CA, www.cityofmontclair.org" I'd be tempted to ask for a replacement, but I kinda like the obscurity involved with getting a non-Woot monkey from Woot. It's much like instead of a box of monkeys, I got a random Boggy Old Creature instead.
My monkey is lost... =/ E-mailed email@example.com after a month of waiting... sigh
need more keychain monkeys in different colors. all I have seen are red and black

Benefit is Saturday to boost Jesse Kuntz
On Saturday, April 20, a benefit supper will be held for Jesse Kuntz. In 1987, Jesse was diagnosed with Scleroderma at the age of two. It is believed he was born with it.
The pancake and sausage benefit will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Linton KC Hall.
Jesse is the son of Tony and Viola Kuntz and was raised on a farm east of Linton. He graduated from Linton High School in 2004. Following graduation, he spent his days doing what he loved the most—farming.
He farmed with his father from 1985 through 1995. After his father quit farming, he began farming for his uncle, Jerry Grossman and brothers.
"I loved farming and I really wanted to keep going with that, but I just could not keep up with it," Jesse said.
In April 2012, Jesse knew he had to give up farming because of the pain and lack of energy he was experiencing.
"It was slowing me down and I just had to quit as I was constantly pushing myself hard, and that was affecting my health even more," he said.
Jesse said the disease had not actually caused him a lot of pain until the past three years, and the last year, has been extremely tough.
"I always knew the day was coming, but I just did not want to slow down or give in to it," Jesse said.
Jesse had surgery on his right femur to stretch his leg two inches. To lengthen it, they had to break his leg, and insert a rod and pins. He has also had to have his toes broken and have put pins in them as they overlapped.
Scleroderma, or systemic sclerosis, is a group of rare, progressive diseases that involve the hardening and tightening of the skin and connective tissues—the fibers that provide the framework and support for your body. It can also harm internal organs, such as the heart, lungs, kidneys and digestive tract.
Scleroderma can run in families, but, in most cases, it occurs without any known family tendency for the disease. Jesse is the only member of his family who they are aware of who has the disease.
There is no known cure or no specific treatment for Scleroderma. Jesse has tried a variety of recommended therapies including pain medications, steroid injections, acupuncture, chiropractic, physical therapy and changing his diet.
"I have tried so many different forms of pain relief, and some help for a time, and others have not helped at all," Jesse said.
At the present time, Jesse is using a 72-hour Fentanyl patch to help him cope with the pain in his right hip and femur.
For Jesse though, the worst part of this disease has been the fact that he has had to give up his passion—farming.
"I loved to farm, and I just miss it so much," he said. "I remember being on the tractor watching the sun come up and the sun go down, and I miss it."
Jesse said he is an outdoors person and always loved to hunt and fish.
He is grateful for his parents, Tony and Viola, who have been so supportive and have always been there for him. Jesse thanks them and many of his family and friends, especially his two brothers, Jeremy and his wife, Tiffany, of Linton, and Jason and his special friend, Tiffi Finck of Lehr, who have given him support in so many ways. He also thanks the Linton Hospital and staff for their efforts.
Jesse had a home in the Temvik area but had to sell it, along with many other assets, to help pay for medical bills as health insurance does not cover everything.
Money raised at the benefit will be used to pay for Jesse's health insurance, medications and treatments. Those wishing to help out but who can't attend the benefit may send their donations to: Kuntz Fundraiser, BNC National Bank, PO Box 910, Linton, ND 58552-0910.

I'm not sure if I'm in love with this product. I use this as my night cream and this is the only cream I put on my face at night and my night eye cream. It is moisturizing enough for my super dry skin in the summer nights. I'm not sure how it will fare in winter time. It left my skin soft, smooth and bright the next day. It also has diminished my deep lines on my forehead by a lot. I don't know if this is the cause of small red bumps on my right side. I have a few of them right now. Will update once I figure it out.
I've been using Help Me every day for about 6 weeks now. As I said in another reveiw I added this to my skincare regimen at the same time I was adding a couple of other products. The problem with starting new products at the same time is that it is hard to know which products are causing which results.
That being said I can definitely say that Help Me hasn't harmed my skin in any way. I did have a couple of tiny dry patches develop the first week I started using it, but I just increased my moisturizer and kept up with using this product. The patches cleared up and I haven't had any problems since. I like the texture of this cream and I like the way my skin seems to absorb it right in without leaving any greasy or unpleasent residue.Overall I would say that my skin has a brighter, clearer and more even appearance which pleases me greatly. I haven't noticed much improvement in terms of my large pores or fine lines. I am going to keep up with using help me on a daily basis at least until I finish this tube, then I will have to decide if I want to repurchase. Though I haven't noticed anything that remarkable or amazing I'm not going to quit to early because I have read that even with prescription strength Retin A cream people can sometimes wait up to six months to see any real improvement. Since Retinols are a weaker form of Retin A, I am not expecting any miracles or overnight improvements, however I believe that ongoing continued use of this does probably have benefits. I don't kow this for sure so I may have to come back to update this reveiw.
More reviews by CarolinaMidwife
At first I thought this product was rockin', I really liked it. Now I'm not sure it does anything at all.
I had been using retin-a but then I was worried it was overkill and that I was using it before I really need it. I don't have acne but I'm 37 and while I don't have fine lines I also don't want fine lines so I was acting preemptively. I have also had it up to here with my pores and I was hoping this would help. It didn't.
I have been using it about 3 times a week for 6 months and while nothing bad has happened and I definitely don't look worse... I cannot say for sure that anything good has happened either.
My advice would be to get a prescription level retinol if you really need one... if you're on the fence then try this and maybe you will get enough results to tide you over.
If you already have access to Retin-A or Renova, skin this product.
It's definitely a wanna-be.
I got the set of cleanser/retinol/moisturizer, and taking it all back. This was the ONLY item in the box that didn't have a nauseating smell.
For $60 a tube, I expected this product to something... anything! I saw absolutely no difference in fine line or acne marks. What a complete waste of money.
I got this in a set with the Purity face wash and HIAJ which I also love. Since using the set I've noticed my red blotchy cheeks and chin have toned way down, my skin is more even and bright. It also seems to really control my oily t-zone as well. I used to get really dry and flaky skin around the creases of my nose and on my chin right below my lower lip but now it's nice and smooth. I have noticed that my freckles and some brown spots on my cheeks seem to have become more noticeable but it could be because the dead skin cells are sloughing off and my new skin is a little lighter. As others have said you don't need to use much product to cover your entire face just a pea sized amount does the job for me. All in all I am very satisfied with the results I've seen so far and it's only been about 3 to 4 weeks.
More reviews by Kimberlyj33110
I was looking for something to help my moderate acne and clogged pores, and this was recommended to me by a beauty advisor at ulta. My results have been slow, but good. The effectiveness was amplified when used in conjunction with the clindamycin topical anti-biotic gel my doctor perscribed. I have also seen the faint, thin lines on my forehead diminish. My cystic pimples have become way less frequent, my pores aren't clogged, and my mild/moderate acne has disappeared. Also, some mild acne scars have begun to fade. I am now on my third tube, and plan on keeping this staple in my arsenal. *** I still love this product but I now use it on the occasional nights when I feel Poetry in Lotion is too drying. This is still a great product, but Poetry in lotion in my HG!!

The tube is tiny, but a little goes a long way. I used it for months, and I still have plenty left. It helped reduce my hyperpigmentation spots a lot, but after a while it stopped working as effectively, to the point where I didn't see any continued improvement. I originally used it every day, and now I'm waiting out a few months to let my skin get used to operating without it to see if I can kick-start the spot-fading again. We'll see what happens.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is the ultimate multi tasking face product. It moisturizes, tightens my pores, has reduced blackheads and breakouts, and helped the fine lines I'm starting to have. I can't believe how amazing this is. It might seem like a small amount of product for the price, but a little dab can cover your whole face, and it's definitely worth it. Not strong, irritating, or drying. Overall a great product.

Boeing could seek internal launch approval for the stretched and re-engined 787-10X by the end of this year or early 2013, chief executive Jim McNerney says today.
"It looks like a pretty good airplane that will have a lot of market demand," McNerney says.
With strategic customers such as Lufthansa already interested, Boeing is aiming the 787-10X to serve high-density trunk routes between Europe and the Middle East and North America, as well as developing routes within Asia.
The 787-10X concept has moved forward as a proposal to re-engine and possibly re-wing the 777 has receded in priority, with new Boeing Commercial Airplanes president Ray Conner declining to uphold his predecessor's goal to seek launch approval for the 777X by the end of the year.
Compared to the 777X, Boeing views the 787-10X as a more straightforward product with fewer technical complications.
But Boeing is still fine-tuning the timing and market strategy for the 787-10X.
"We are getting greater fidelity," says McNerney, adding that it is "hard for me to predict exactly when we would move forward".
However, McNerney quickly followed saying the 787-10X business case could be submitted to the board later this year or early next year.
"We're getting near the end of that evaluation to make the judgement," he says.

At sentencing, Handley attempted to object to what he considered an improper, off-the-record meeting between judge and prosecutor, with no defense counsel present. Hufnagel cut him off.
"This is my case, Mr. Handley," she snapped. "Please tell me if you have any additions or corrections."
Hufnagel gave Gurle thirty years. Handley concedes that it was Hufnagel's prerogative to keep the case and that the sentence fell within the guidelines for the offense. "She's right, it was her case," he says. "But I can't imagine being able to approach Judge Hufnagel and say, 'Can I talk to you in private about this case?' No way. I told her I was real concerned about this ex parte [one-sided] communication. Unfortunately, I was shouted down."
The Gurle case is now on appeal.
A trial judge hears hundreds of cases a year, and even the best of them suffer their share of reversals. But certain controversial decisions have a way of haunting a judge long after the matters at hand have dropped out of the headlines. Lance Ito will always be known as the judge who let the O.J. Simpson case careen out of control. Richard Matsch's stock will rise or fall depending on what happens in the Oklahoma City bombing trial. And Lynne Hufnagel may ultimately be remembered, not for giving Quintin Wortham 376 years, but for sentencing Denver's Yellow Cab company to almost three years in the custody of attorney Karen Mathis.
Her critics point to the Yellow Cab debacle as Exhibit A in the case against Hufnagel. No other matter before her has prompted such a wide range of charges leveled at the judge--charges of abuse of authority, bias, secret communications, unconscionable delays, high-handed and ruinous decision-making--or stirred up such a staggering array of lawsuits and unresolved questions in its wake. Hufnagel's handling of the civil case, which began as a relatively minor dispute over seating a board of directors, earned her the lasting enmity of hundreds of Denver cabbies and stinging rebukes from two federal judges, and the aftershocks of her decisions are still being felt in the city's legal community.
"It was like a kangaroo court," says Alan Cowley, a Yellow Cab driver who was the lead plaintiff in the lawsuit. "We went to court over an election dispute, and we lost the company. I feel terribly robbed."
In 1991 Cowley and other drivers for the Yellow Cab Cooperative Association filed suit against a rival faction, claiming fraud and improper conduct in the election of YCCA's board of directors. The company, which had been purchased by the drivers and operated as a cooperative since 1978, had a long history of financial mismanagement and political infighting among various groups within the organization. By the luck of the draw, the case was assigned to Judge Hufnagel's courtroom.
After several days of tense, packed hearings, the parties still hadn't reached agreement as to who was going to run the company. Hufnagel's way of settling the argument was to appoint a temporary receiver to manage YCCA's assets. The person she chose for the job was Denver attorney Karen Mathis, who'd overseen dozens of other receiverships and had worked as an officer of Hufnagel's court before in a guardian ad litem proceeding.
Several drivers say they were "shocked" by Hufnagel's decision. Receiverships are usually instituted in foreclosure actions, to protect a secured creditor's interest and pay off debts in an equitable manner. YCCA had a mountain of debt, but no creditor had requested a receiver; nor had the drivers. Yet none of the parties formally objected to Mathis's appointment at the time, since they figured she would only be around long enough to conduct a fair election of a new board of directors.
They were mistaken. Although the receiver had never run a cab company before, Hufnagel's order gave Mathis extremely broad powers to manage YCCA, including the ability to hire and fire, to sell assets and to pay creditors or leave them hanging. It also allowed her to hire her own law firm to assist her in running the business. With Mathis's personal legal meter ticking at $170 an hour and a bevy of other attorneys on board to help the beleaguered cabbies through their crisis, it wasn't long before the Mathis Law Firm was extracting an average of $10,000 a week from the financially strapped company. And nothing could stop the hemorrhaging but another order from Judge Hufnagel--an order that was never issued.
The drivers soon figured out that their company no longer belonged to them. Under Mathis's supervision, a new board of directors was elected in July 1991, three months into the receivership, but they were allowed to serve only in an advisory capacity; Judge Hufnagel refused to seat them, saying they weren't "ready" yet. At the same time, Mathis set about implementing a new driver's contract that many YCCA members considered ruinous; those who refused to sign were fired, including one of the new boardmembers. Most of the fired drivers owned their own cabs and took their business to competing taxi companies, a move that had a significant impact on the size of YCCA's fleet and its revenues.

How does one prepare roses for winter up here? I have 3 rose shrubs (I think). One was planted early summer and
the last two were planted only a couple weeks ago. All are doing well. I have read that I should stop pruning now to avoid any tender new growth. But I have also read that I should cut the largest down to about only 6-8 inches above the ground. If I keep doing that how will it ever become as big as it should (4ft x 4ft)? How high do I pile the mulch (leaves) and when should I do it? And when in the spring should I remove the leaves? Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
Yes you should stop pruning by mid-August, only deadhead if the rose is still blooming. No you shouldn't cut it down before winter. The idea is for the rose to NOT put on any new growth between now and winter, because the new growth is tender and may get killed by the cold. Pruning/cutting back stimulates new growth. Before you think about winter protection, you need to determine whether you need it or not. Specifically what kind of roses are you growing? Many roses don't need winter protection in zone 5. But if you are growing hybrid teas, you will need to protect. Leaves are not the best, remember that whatever you put down, you want to keep the rose surrounded by dry and airy stuff. Moist/clumpy stuff like wet leaves can cause disease problems that can do more harm to your rose than the cold. I use pine needles on certain roses that need protection. Protection doesn't go on until the ground starts to freeze, almost always after Thanksgiving and lately not until 1st/2nd week of Dec. |

Town of Medjugorje Site of Alleged Apparitions of the Virgin Mary Comments
Medjugorje or "Between the Hills" is a village in the southern part of Herzegovina in the present-day state of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The area is famous due to a series of reported visions of the Virgin Mary that began in 1981 and continues today. Although the apparitions have not been validated by the Catholic Church, the Shrine of the Queen of Peace at Medjugorje attracts thousands of pilgrims and tourists each year. Continue Reading

Thank you Vance for your Kindness. I was referring specifically to the predictions made by the seers at Medjugorje however, not in the book of Revelations. Had you read or heard anything about those predictions? Also, despite the obvious faith benefits to many pilgrims, there is big money to be made in promoting events like these by companies that run the Tours and those at the site that benefit from the tourists. I've lived long enough to know that just saying or believing our intentions are pure is not necessarily the truth. When people's livelihoods depend on your motivation to spend money on/at a tour there is more than one agenda at work. It would be reasonable to assume that some degree of sensationalism is present in order to motivate people. I'm not being critical of the Apparitions or their validity... just an honest assessment of how people around such events promote them for their own benefit. Even Jesus had to throw a few money changers out of the temple. :)

Nebraska, Yes I have heard of the three days of darkness. It is for all to read in the book of Revelation. I am sorry that your faith or enthusiasm dimmed because of second hand information.

In 1989 our Covenant Community was told by a nun who had been to Medjugorje that one of the seers had told her that "three days of darkness" were coming upon the world. The sister had worked out an agreement with the seer that she would contact the sister as soon as the Blessed Virgin disclosed the onset of this tribulation. I had been a founding member of that Community, but that evening all sense of "belonging" I had felt for 12 years suddenly left me. I was never the same afterwards and left the Community in 1990. As far as I know, no "three days of darkness" were ever reported by the seers though I have honestly never kept track. Did anyone else ever hear this sort of thing?

I have been to medjugorje ,four years ago.I revived my catholic believe.Tell you what,I passed hours kneeling down or on foot in the church with so many young people,,all kneeling or on the floor since there was no place,only adoring the blessed sacrament,and we were not tired, we returned every day for the adoration,,,,,,,,adoring our savior,who died for us...This world is going to ruins,since it is saying to God,we do not believe in you,we want to do it our way,,,,This is the result,hatred ,envy,corruption,sex,wars, governments maltreating people, abortions,divorce and so many sins against God's wishes.....Every comandment even if you are not catholic,you feel it in your conscience what is right or wrong..........it is here we went wrong ,and in medjugorje you feel Mary's presence,when hundreds of people from all over the world going to confession,who ever goes there , returns to God,because Mary takes us to her son,who is the healer of our spiritual sicknesses.I wish that all the world experience God's mercy and love to all sinners,because we all are infront of his majesty..........I pray for all the world....

There is sanity in insanity. Most times we cannot understand beyond the physical world. We live in a 3D world; however, we know that other dimensions exists but not proven. We know spirits exists, and many have experienced good ones and bad ones. When we hear these stories we feel that these people could be insane and yet there have been real life stories that can be related especially cures and life changing experiences. For these people it is real. For those of us listening we cannot comprehend. Beyond the physical experiences there is definitely something out there maybe from different dimensions. There are entitites reaching out from these dimensions. Some are good some are not so good. Lines have been drawn and maybe some are permitted to cross these lines to come over to our side or some find ways to cross over. Only science can one day open up these worlds to us. Until then it is a matter of faith. If the appearence of Mary in many different places appear to be strange I would look for supposed messages given. If they are positive for strengthening my faith in a loving God I will accept it with an open heart other wise I will reject it. I do not understand how saying the rosary can save my life when I die. This is insanity. However the message that is being promoted by Mary in her appearences is constant...be holy..be good for God is loving and forgiving. This for me is sanity.

It is very simple: the Lord said , "By their fruit you will know them!" - the visionaries have profited materially and financially from this hoax and none of them had been influenced enough to devote his/her life to the Lord. They gave me no reason to believe them.

A year or so ago, this very website published an article on how the Pope had said people should take this Medjugorje business with a fait bit of salt. The priest in charge of this parish was laicized. This whole affair seems to have been a sham, which is a pity since so many people had /still have faith in the story.

People need to remember that Christ promised that he will be with his church until the end of time. He said he would not leave us orphans. This means he is in continuous contact with mankind in a variety of ways. Throughout history God has sent angels as messengers. The Blessed Mother has made many visits to various people in various countries. This is all for the purpose of reminding mankind that God is still there with us and he asks us to keep our faith and live on the straight and narrow according to his commandments. The Blessed Mother's visit to Medjugorje is very consistant with all of her visits. The messages are consistantly asking us to pray the Rosary for peace and God's mercy. She reminds us to worship God, love, and serve him so that we might have salvation. Sometimes there is no verbal message. Many people have seen, including me, crying statues of the Blessed Mother. No words are necessary. We get the message. How do I know whether or not the crying statue was not a hoax? Science! The stop of origin of the Blood Tears and the trail defied gravity. No, the church has made no comment on the event but it made TV news in Northern California in 2004. I took a number of digital photos of the statue.

Dear Readers. I've been hearing about our Blessed Mother's Apparition in Medjugorgie for the past 20 years and being so blessed with the profound graces of Our Blessed Mother. I also visited Medjugorgie twice in the last two years and experienced somthing very profound and supernatural. I dont want to argue about the Authenticity and Veracity of our Blessed Mother's Apparition , but nevetheless, I have accept with profound humility that it is a "GREAT PLACE OF WORSHIP". Secondly, when you do your "Stations of the Cross" one can really undestand the Great Pain endured by our loving LORD JESUS CHRIST for the atonmemt of our SINS. Thirdly, when we see people flocking in huge numbers and reciting the ROSARY unceasingly in the Apparition HILL , one can surely say that "OUR BLESSED LADY" is surely there in their midst in Spirit. In fact, Our Blessed Mother is appearing in various places these days and many apparitions still do not come to the lime light. Whatever people may think about this apparitions, I still beleive that OUR BLESSED MOTHER is warning this world and the entire humanity in various places and in various ways to reconcile ourselves with GOD and escape from GOD's Wrath and punishment to come. Today , the world is full of Violence , Hatred and all kinds of vices , let us all accept our sinfulness and go to our Blessed Mother, very certainly she will lead us all to her Loving and Divine Son. Only A profound Change of Heart is required, that is what she has propogated in "Lourdes and Fatima" and propogating everywhere in the world now.
With Love Paul Christian. Abu Dhabi United Arab Emirates.

BlizzCon 2010: Cataclysm will be available for digital download on launch day
Filed under: News items, BlizzCon
Filed under: News items, BlizzCon
If that's the best news yet, then this expansion's not going to be so impressive.
The con has literally been going for 20 minutes and like 19 minutes of that have been spent introducing what's coming up.
Bah. Why do I get downrated?
They rebuilt the entire old world for you. Two new races? New class/race combinations? Exciting new secondary professions? Flying anywhere in the world?
Nah... I'm downloading mine digitally!! THAT'S THE BEST NEWS OF ALL!
@Josin: It's no good having all that stuff IN THEORY if you can't play it for 2 weeks due to bad postal services/postal strikes/game being out of stock everywhere/god hating you/the Pie-devil starting his armageddon.
This means that I can play that stuff when I want it, i.e. ASAP.
btw he said you could download in advance and just activate when the servers go up.
I agree with Josin. Digital Download is awesome, but BEST Cata news? No way.
It is definitively the best cata news for people who live in other countries, like Brazil, who had to, in the past, to send money to friends in the USA so they could guy the game and send us the key.
What ? Order online ? Sure. 2-3 weeks to get the game here. And that from the very few places that would ship internationally.
Assuming they set up a torrent, definitely the best news.
If we're stuck trying to download from a dedicated server...
But...it's just...it doesn't make sense. Yes, digital download is awesome. Obviously. But it's not the BEST news. You're only excited about it because you are excited about Cataclysm. Something about Cata excites you and thus having Cata is exciting. Some feature or two of Cata is the "best" news. Digital download is simply "awesome." Cataclysm will still be awesome in 2 weeks. Or 4. It's not going to suddenly disappear. If being able to download it is the best thing about Cata, the expansion is going to be pretty poor.
That whole paragraph was probably a waste. Oh well. Thus is the Internet.
I'd personally rather have the disc. Rather load it in a few moments than have to wait a few hours for all of it to download. Though that would be a completely moot point if they allow you to preload it a week or two ahead of schedule to cut down on server stress.
Yep you can pre-order and download it ahead of time.
If I wasn't getting the CE, I would do this.
I'm looking forward to the release party at my local GameStop, sitting around with fellow players and making them see reason on why gnomes are the best race in WoW.
Don't forget that for the same price as retail you miss out on all the fixings like a game manual and world map and all the other goodies that come in a retail box. Since Blizz is cutting down on costs by not having to make those for your copy of the game, guess how much of that savings gets passed on to you? NONE!
Seriously, please give us at least a $5 discount or something. That's the reason I went back to buying WotLK retail after doing Digital Download for BC.
I'll probably get both. I'll buy the digital version so I can play as soon as it launches, and then when my CE gets here I'll just upgrade.
But yeah... I waste money like that >>;
Yah, call me a super nerd but I've pre-ordered the collector's edition from amazon but I'm not confident about when I'll receive it. I want to play that night. I'm going to download it to play and then upgrade when the box comes in the mail.
You're welcome Biizz. ;)
This is pretty much the only option for me - I live in the US but used to live in the UK. Therefore, the only other way of getting a copy of Cataclysm is ordering it on Amazon.co.uk, getting it shipped to someone back there, and then getting them to ship it to me over here. Digital download for the win!
Awesome news for the people who are going to partake in the DL.
Man I wished people read the game manuals. I did when I got my battlechest and was waiting to play. Lots of good info in there. It would cut down on 80 of the stupid trade chat questions...:) or not. Who am I kidding :p But still, packed with info people. This looks like it's going to be an awesome weekend for wow insider. Now If my Chicago Bears can only beat the Redskins...../dream
