At the risk of dating myself, ( which I always find to be a funny expression!), I remember when Deep Throat was originally released. It created a huge uproar by being the first porno flick to try and go mainstream. It came out in 1972 and was banned in 22 states.
Linda Lovelace was the star of the movie and had a very unusual talent which led to an "artform" named after the movie. It wasn't until many years later, when Linda finally went public with her experience, that we learned that she had been forced to do that movie and others like it by her abuser of a husband Chuck Traynor.
Academy Award-winning Directors Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman, ( Howl, The Celluloid Closet) assembled an all-star cast including Sharon Stone, Amanda Seyfried, James Franco, Emmy Award winner Hank Azaria, Debi Mazar, Adam Brody, Wes Bentley, Chris Noth, Robert Patrick, Eric Roberts, Chloe Sevigny, Juno Temple, and Bobby Cannavale to tell this story in a very sensitive, compassionate way, with many of the sex scenes left to the imagination.
In the screenplay written by Andy Bellin, Amanda Seyfried plays the part of Linda Lovelace, and she does it in a way that makes you really care about Linda. Linda was a big part of the sexual revolution of the 1970′s as well as a forerunner in the rise of feminism!
Amanda said that this was the first time that she completely stepped out of her comfort zone, which is probably the goal of any good actor, because as people we tend to create a box that we function out of and the box represents our comfort zone.
Challenging that comfort zone and expanding the box is key to rising to higher levels of consciousness and being real in a difficult part. Playing someone who actually existed makes it even more difficult and Amanda was incredible in the role.
At the press conference for the film last week I complimented her on her range of acting from "Les Miz" to " Lay Everyone", which got a big laugh from the crowd and the assembled stars including Amanda, Sharon Stone, Peter Sarsgaard, Hank Azaria, Adam Brody, Debi Mazar and Chris Noth. ( See video at the end for proof! LOL)
She got her big break in Lorne Michaels/Tina Fey's 2004 film "Mean Girls" with Lindsay Lohan, and Rachel McAdams. They won the Best On-Screen Team Award at the MTV Movie Awards.
Peter Sarsgaard plays the role of her abusive husband, and he was almost reluctant to take the part until his pregnant wife encouraged him to do so. He said it was a very cathartic role, and he and Amanda had great chemistry onscreen even though they only had one week of rehearsal together.
Four time Emmy Award-winner Hank Azaria played Gerry Damiano the director of Deep Throat and was committed enough to wear one of the worst toupees in movie history, which he joked about at the press conference. He said they didn't have enough money in the budget for a good hairpiece so they made it themselves.
My good friend Bobby Cannavale one of the most talented actors around was not there, but he played the part of Butchie Peraino, the guy who financed the original Deep Throat, by taking a loan from some questionable people for $22,500. He returned an enormous profit.
Chris Noth played Anthony Romano who was Butchie's partner in financing the film, but I was most excited about Sharon Stone who played Dorothy Boreman, Linda's mother, who came from a very religious, conservative background. Sharon is a true movie star of the old kind, and I mean that in the best way. She is such an elegant woman and I was excited to meet her and be able to tell her that at the press conference. She seemed very humble and genuinely appreciated my remarks.
The great Debi Mazar played Dolly Sharp a friend of Linda's and a co-star in Deep Throat.
Everyone loves Debi from so many projects especially her long reign as PR queen Shauna Roberts, on HBO's Entourage. Debbie recalled our previous meeting at the premiere of MTV's "Good Times" an animated series for television where she gave me some hair tips!
And I was very happy to see that my old friend Hollywood powerhouse Jason Weinberg of Untitled Entertainment was one of the producers!

Hi all, I'm on my second brew and I'm really enjoying making beer! I just made a tripel last night. I had read that folks were fitting blowoff tubes to buckets by putting 1.5" tubing on a 3 piece airlock. How in the world do you get it on the airlock tube? My LHBS had heard of the idea so we tried it and couldn't get it to fit on. Anyway, he happened to have a 3 piece airlock without a floater and cap so he cut it so only the stem remained. The tubing fit on there just fine and I got it on just in time. Things are pretty violent right now. I wanted to share a tip that I hadn't come across yet...the owner suggested using a 1 gallon water jug as the container for the end of the tube and guiding the tube down the handle. That way, the tube won't go anywhere. You can actually pick it up by the tube this way. It's working well so far.
Yep, this is a good idea and many do it. I do it when I use a bucket and an aggressive yeast. The larger tube is for a carboy, it fits right down into the neck of the bottle so you don't need the airlock part.

Not understanding this hides the fact that the real problems faced by millions, like starvation and poverty, are not the result of true scarcity of resources but of faulty man-made systems powered by greed. In fact, they will claim that the resources of the country of Nigeria alone are enough to relieve the needs of every person in the whole continent of Africa, which would happen if they were managed through a system that is not morally or ethically corrupt.
Resources are abundant and ironically are concentrated not in first world countries, but in those of the third world. Islamic economics claims that traditional capitalism is really a predatory system that seeks to deprive the most needy of the existing resources for the personal gain of a few. It does this with the help and support of many institutions that supposedly are there to help the needy.
Defenders of Islamic economics claim that putting into place the rules of Islam in the financial system would stop these problems once and for all. Islam does not limit the individual wealth of each individual, like socialism, so there is always the promise of reward for those willing to work. Islam looks to prevent putting a stop on the production of goods. It seeks to generate abundance by eliminating any systems that prevent products from being produced. Islamic ethics serve the role of preventing abuse and exploitation and, while not limiting the individual wealth of each individual, does limit the ways in that each person can make his money. Islamic economics are against the concept of a free market. Such a lack of restrictions has led to a system in which the largest companies exploit the rest of the world. Under Islamic law resources that are necessary for life and dignity are public property and a personal right of everyone regardless of religion. The Prophet Muhammad stated that every human being has the right to water, green pastures and the fuel to make fire.
Under Islamic law the revenue from natural resources, particularly oil, would not end up in casinos and luxury items but in public projects. The government would use this money derived from public resources to provide for the needs of each person of the public, which would greatly reduce – in fact, make virtually non-existent – the monopoly of multinational corporations.
Islam also has rules that prevent monopolies and the abuse that has been lived recently by the largest companies. It prevents the hoarding of wealth, which must be used, and also eliminates patents and copyrights to prevent monopolies from developing. It also limits the ownership of a business to those that contribute capital or work to that particular business, preventing modern financial takeovers and shady dealings between parent companies and companies designed to fail or go bankrupt; unlike capitalism which allows through the stock market for any person to buy a part of any business without putting work into it. Practices like food dumping by manufacturers to create scarcity and drive up prices would be completely non-existent under Islamic law.
Islam also puts limits on the means that each person can follow to become wealthy. Islam protects individuals and society by not equating the different ways in which a person can earn his money. Islam states that natural resources belong to the public and and prohibits certain goods. For example, under Islam pornography and prostitution are disallowed. Gambling and drinking, and all business that derive from handling these kinds of products that are related to sex or alcohol would also be prohibited.
Under Islamic law currency would be under the gold standard, or it would be linked to a precious resource of some sort. Islamic economics look to back currency with value that is real rather than made up. This eliminates many forms of currency manipulation that have thrived to the detriment of some sectors of society.
The defenders of Islamic economics have said that this system is one of the things that the leaders of the current economies, mainly the United States and China, fear the most. It takes away many of the things that have helped secure their place as first world nations. It nationalizes natural resources, eliminates currency linking and would make the value of the American dollar plummet and breaks up monopolies and the hoarding of wealth. It would also be very unwelcome by the current corrupt leaders of many Arab nations and tribes. They claim that many of the recent attacks on Islam are really based on a fear of Islamic economic principles taking hold around the world.

The Chapel | Window in the Old Hall Room. |
The Chapel was built between 1675 and 1678 by Sir Peter Leicester next to the old hall on an island in the mere. It was moved to its current site near the Tabley House in the 1920 when the old hall started to collapse because of subsidence. The "Old Hall Room" seen to the right of the chapel, is now the tea-room and has some stained glass and a magnificent fireplace from the old hall. Tabley House now has its own web site where you can see details of opening times and have a preview of some paintings.
Sir Peter Leicester was a remarkable man. He studied at Brazenose College Oxford then at Greys Inn. He mastered Latin and was also proficient in Old English, Norman French and Greek. His library comprised 1300 volumes. This gave him ideal qualifications for his historical studies on the muniments of the Leicesters and neighbouring families. He also read the Domesday Book. He married in 1642, the first year of the Civil War, when he was 29. During the war he was at one time a prisoner in Oxford and in 1655 and early 1656 a prisoner at Chester. At the Restoration in 1660 he was created a Baronet and he subsequently became a Deputy Lieutenant and JP for Cheshire. His book on the history of Cheshire, including a transcript of the sections on Cheshire in the Domesday Survey, was published in 1673 and dedicated to Charles II. His chapel at Tabley was completed in 1678. He died the same year and was buried in the Lady Chapel at Great Budworth. (I am grateful to Lois Ford for this information.)
According to Sir Peter Leicester's accounts, the chapel and fittings cost £800. The following note on the foundation of the chapel has been transcribed from the Tabley muniments now kept at Cheshire County Record Office:
Sir Peter Leycester Baronet did lay the first Foundation-Stone for the new Chappel at the Mannour Hall of Nether-Tabley with his own hand, on the 29th day of June in the yeare after the Nativity of Christ, MDCLXXV, commonly called Saint Peter's day; being Tuesday, about one of the clocke in the After-noone: to wit the very cornerstone on the South-East-Point of the sayd Chappell: and Elizabeth his Lady did also helpe to lay the very next stone adioninge thereto at the sayd East-end: and Robert Leycester their sonne and heire did lay the opposite corner-stone on the East-end, to wit, the Cornerstone on the very North-East-point of the sayd Chappell: there were also present at the same tyme; Elinour and Byron, daughters of the sayd Sir Peter, and also Rafe Leycester of Toft Esquire Husband to the sayd Elinour; who did all of them severally helpe to lay each one a stone. It is situated by the Poole-side in the very South-East-Corner of the land in the Poole.
The engraving below shows the chapel and old hall as they were at the beginning of the 19th century. At that time the chapel tower had a small spire.

Engraved by J. Storer from
a drawing by Sir. R. C. Hoare, Bart. From The Beauties of England and Wales
Published by Vernor and Wood, Poultry, London, 1 June 1802
The following family tree is taken in part from the one shown in the Tabley House brochure. The family traced its origins to Sir Nicholas Leycester who died in 1295. His two great grandsons were John, from whom the Leicesters of Tabley were descended and Ralph from whom the Leycesters of Toft descended, many of them called Ralph. This latter family retained the old spelling of the name.
In the following centuries the Leicesters of Tabley married into several of the neighbouring families mentioned on this site as shown below for five successive generations:
John Leycester, died 1496 married Margery, daughter of John Legh of High Legh.
Thomas Leycester, died 1526, married Margaret, daughter and co-heiress of Robert Grosvenor of Hulme
Peter Leycester, died 1577, married Alice, daughter of Sir John Holford of Holford.
Adam Leycester, died died 1581, married Dorothy, daughter of Peter Shakerley of Hulme
Peter Leycester, died 1647, married Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Randle Mainwaring of Over Peover and his wife Margaret, the daughter of Sir Edward Fitton of Gawsworth. (It was to mark this marriage that the fine fireplace was built in the old hall, which can now be seen in the Old Hall Room.)
The more detailed family tree following starts with Sir Peter Leicester, the son of the last named couple who used the alternative spelling of the name. It is drawn from Ormerod's History of Cheshire, Burke's Baronetage and Peerage and monumental brasses in the Chapel at Tabley House.
The Bulkeley family of Cheadle and Beaumaris traced its ancestry to Richard de Bulkelegh of Cheadle, the second son of Robert de Bulkelgh of Eaton near Davenham, who died in 1349. Thomas James Bulkeley the 7th Viscount was born 12 December 1752. His estates in Cheadle and other Cheshire lands were sold by Act of Parliament in 1765. On 26 April 1777 he married Elizabeth Harriett, the daughter and heiress of Sir George Warren of Poynton and subsequently took the name of Warren-Bulkeley. In 1784 he was created Baron Bulkeley of Beaumaris. When he died in June 1822, Thomas James Warren-Bulkeley's estates went to his uterine half brother, Sir Richard Bulkeley Williams, Bart. Sir Richard then adopted the name of Bulkeley. Elizabeth Harriett, Viscountess Bulkeley left part of her fortune to her distant cousin the 2nd Lord de Tabley, whose great great grandmother was Ann Dorothea Warren. The 2nd Lord de Tabley then changed the family name from Leicester to Warren. Subsequent generations used Leicester as an additional given name and hence the 3rd Lord was John Byrne Leicester Warren. (From Earwaker's East Cheshire Past and Present, Vol. 1, page 181)
There is an article on the Bulkeley family of Cheadle and Beaumaris during the 17th and 18th centuries in Cheshire Notes and Queries, Vol. 8, 1888, 226-9.
The following note is from History of the County Palatine and Duchy of Lancaster by Edward Baines, Esq., M.P. Vol. II, first published by Fisher and Sons, London, 1836, a new revised and improved edition edited by John Harland published by George Routledge of London and Manchester, 1870
A small township 5.5 miles north of Blackburn with an old hall. In 1311 (4 Edw II) it was held by Roger de Clyderhou (Clitheroe) under the Lacy family who had the Earldom of Lincoln. The Lacy lands were forfeited to the crown after the rebellion led by Thomas Earl of Lancaster ended in the Battle of Borough Bridge. By 1480 Dinkley was held by Robert Morley by knight's service and in 1532 it was held by his descendant Thomas Morley. In 1567 it was held by Roger Nowell of Read and afterwards passed to the Talbots. Dorothy, daughter and heiress of John Talbot of Salesbury married Edward Warren of Poynton and conveyed the estate to him. Sir George Warren, KB, his son and heir, died in 1801 and his daughter and sole heiress married Thomas James, Viscount Bulkeley on 26 April 1777. It then passed to the 2nd Lord de Tabley who sold it to Mr. Henry Ward of Blackburn about 2 years ago. (i.e. in the 1860s)
A source on the Legh of Lyme family is The House of Lyme, from its Foundation to the end of the Eighteenth Century, by Lady Newton, Heiemann, London 1917.
Peter Legh of Lyme the elder or Peter XII (1669-1744) and his wife Frances had no heirs and Peter arranged for the estate to pass to the sons of his brother, Thomas (1675-1715), who had married Henrietta Maria, the daughter of Thomas Fleetwood of Bank Hall, near Southport in Lancashire. Henrietta Maria died in 1722. The eldest of the nephews was Fleetwood Legh, born 11 January 1701/2. He married Meriel Leicester on 24 November 1723 and the couple lived at Bank Hall, which Fleetwood had inherited from his mother. The couple had one daughter Frances born 13 August 1725 who died on 10 August 1726. Fleetwood Legh died of pleurisy on 21 January 1725/6, aged 25 leaving Meriel pregnant with a second daughter, Anne Meriel Legh, born 5 September 1726.
Meriel (Leicester) Legh, following the death of Fleetwood Legh married Sir John Bryne of Timogue in 1728.
When Peter XII died in 1744 the estate went to Fleetwood's brother Peter XIII but on his death in 1792 without surviving issue it went to the next surviving brother Ashburnham. He was the progenitor of the later Lords Newton. There were also five sisters - Elizabeth, Margaret, Ann, Sarah and Mary. Lady Newton also edited a book Lyme Letters 1660-1760, published by Heinemann in 1925. Copies of both books are in Manchester Central Library.

2. For the Jewelry-Lover
Jewelry's perhaps even tougher than art. Luckily, we have it on good authority that ladies love Erin Considine's natural shapes and almost-hippie designs. Try out this ring, based on a Le Corbusier sculpture, which should work with most looks, or a deceptively simple hand-forged vintage brass bracelet. She'll thank you instead of us, but we don't mind.

text: Okay so my hair is pin straight and not fussy at all. I don't have a stylist I go to on a regular basis, I just use whatever person is free when I need my appointment. I'm not picky at all....just trim it, DONE! But I hate, HATE, that every stylist needs to tell me that my hair has damage and what I should and should not be doing. Sweetie, look in the mirror, YOUR hair isn't that wonderful either! My hair is not Angelina Jolie material, but it's okay...see avatar...it's CUTE DAMNIT!!! '"You shouldn't color your hair at home"......"Oh, don't blowdry everyday!!" (AS SHE IS PULLING OUT THE DRYER TO DRY MY HAIR) "do you use a curling iron?". When a simple "ohh, this conditioner would really work on your", would suffice, instead they go into a whole song and dance why my hair SUCKS and my head should be shaved. The only time my hair was ever immediately visably damaged was after I had $260 highlights done at the salon and they left the foil in too long and my cute layers turned into a weird crispy crown thing, so no thanks, I think I'll stick to myself and my $7 box of Nice and Easy, LADY! :)

Delusions of gender: Men's insecurities may lead to sexist views of women
He loves her, he loves her not.
Union College is a private, non-denominational liberal arts college located in Schenectady, New York, United States. Founded in 1795, it was the first institution of higher learning chartered by the New York State Board of Regents. In the 19th century, it became the "Mother of Fraternities", as three of the earliest such organizations were established there. After 175 years as a traditional all-male institution, Union College began enrolling women in 1970. The college offers a liberal arts curriculum across some 21 academic departments, as well as opportunities for interdepartmental majors and self-designed organizing theme majors. In common with most liberal arts colleges, Union offers a wide array of courses in arts, sciences, literature, and foreign languages, but, in common with only a few other liberal arts colleges, Union also offers ABET-accredited undergraduate degrees in computer engineering, electrical engineering, and mechanical engineering. Approximately 25% of students major in the social sciences; 9% in history; 10% in psychology; 11% in engineering; 10% in biology; 10% in the liberal arts; while some 5% design their own majors.

100 Olds/Robb Building
At a very young age, Jason found love for sports. Because of this passion, he has maintained an active lifestyle, from earning a 3rd degree black belt, to running some college track. "Sports have always been a major part of my life. I haven't participated in organized sports in over 4 years, but that doesn't mean I'm going to stop training. At heart, I'm still an athlete, minus the competing." Due to his lifelong participation in a wide-variety of sports, he has gained extensive experience and valuable knowledge of what to do in the weight room, and how to do it. "The first time I stepped into a weight room was in the 6th grade and I instantly fell in love. Back then and though my freshmen year of college, I used the weight room only to better myself as athlete, but now exercising is what I love, it's a hobby!"
Currently, Jason is in his last semester at Eastern Michigan University in pursuit of a degree in Sports Medicine-Exercise Science.
"If it were easy, then everyone would be doing it. Dare to be different." and "Look Good, Feel Good, Do Good!"
The Recreation & Intramural Sports Department is part of Operations and Facilities.

"Me being naked in front of people was no big deal," Bushong explained. "But I knew it paid a lot. It's sales. It's just like being a used-car salesman or a stockbroker -- except that you happen to be naked."
Bushong kept her clothes on when she stopped by unannounced to give me the hard sell. A few weeks earlier, she'd mailed me a copy of her disc along with a ten-page manifesto that she'd authored; needless to say, I still hadn't listened to her disc by the time she dropped by. Had I taken a second to crack open her screed, though, I might not have felt so ambushed.
"I have found that in this business, as in any other business, face-to-face contact is by far the best way to get something across," Bushong's missive reads. "So on days that I have time, I put together several promo packs and drive all around the city introducing myself."
While the person-to-person approach may work with some folks, it generally doesn't with me. Still, I invited her into my office -- and this was without knowing she'd been a stripper! -- thinking that after a few minutes of face time, I'd be able to send her on her way. But then she started telling her story.
Now, if you side with the American moral majority (read: voted for Dubya), you may consider it obscene and exploitative to get paid to entertain the unlaid. But don't cry for her, Texarkana. Bushong knew exactly what she was doing when she started "taking it off for the music," as her paper is titled.
"At that time, I was meeting more people, playing more venues, and I knew I had to make a CD," Bushong recalled. "I didn't have any money. I was still living with my mom and making eight bucks an hour at Swallow Hill. I sent out hundreds of resumés, trying to find a job -- any job. And one night after a gig, my bass player and I went to PT's Gold Club, because we were drunk and had nothing else to do. And I was just like, 'You know what? I can do that.' So I auditioned and became a stripper."
Landing the gig at PT's was not as serendipitous as it might sound. Bushong knew she could do the job because she'd already paid her way through college in Santa Barbara working as an exotic dancer, indulging many a lonely man's masturbatory fantasies.
After college, Bushong, a Denver native, moved to Steamboat and played mostly solo acoustic gigs at various open-mike nights. "The ratio there was eight to one, eight guys to one girl," she said. "I was the only female who would get up and play. And all the guys were like, 'Oh, my God, that's so awesome."
So when Bushong returned to Mootown and put her band together, betting on skin to win one more time was a no-brainer. The job gave her more than money. Not only did it provide fodder for her material -- "Give It All to Mama" chronicles a night in the life of a private dancer -- but her time at PT's helped bolster her ability as a performer.
"A lot of the bars we play at are biker bars," Bushong revealed. "And the majority of the audience is men. So as a woman, yes, I use the sexuality of being a dancer on stage. It crosses over -- from the way that I move, the way that I look, the way that I use the microphone in my mouth -- and makes it all very sensual and sexy. You know, standing up there and strumming and not moving and not making any facial expressions, no one's going to want to get up and dance and interact. It's the same as being on stage at the strip club. If you just sit there and expect guys to come up and tip you, you've got to dance, you've got to make them want to come up to your stage."
After talking with Bushong -- appearing this Saturday, November 13, at Elk Creek Station in Pine -- I have to admit that I admire her moxie, if not her music, which is a mostly generic blend of bar-band blues and funk. But she certainly knows how to work it, and she takes her craft seriously.
Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for Down 21, a relatively new band that I had the great misfortune of seeing last Thursday night at Cervantes'. It's a given that nobody starts off on top. You have to put in your time like everybody else. And sometimes that includes playing to ten people -- half of them members of the other band -- on a cold November night. (Hell, I've done it: Ask me about the West Coast tour I did with my band in '97. We played to beer bottles and bouncers in Reno, Nevada; Eugene, Oregon; and Ogden, Utah. Been there, have a T-shirt.)

You'd think after seven years Brad Pitt would shut up about his broken marriage to Jennifer Aniston.
But no, he just can't help pulling it out of the bag.
The 47-year-old has spoken to Parade Magazine (for what seems like three hours, given the size of the story), saying that his relationship with Jen pretty much made his whole life crap.
"I spent the '90s trying to hide out, trying to duck the full celebrity cacophony. I started to get sick of myself sitting on a couch, holding a joint, hiding out. It started feeling pathetic. It became very clear to me that I was intent on trying to find a movie about an interesting life, but I wasn't living an interesting life myself.
And then…you suck, Jen, you suck…
"I think that my marriage [to Jennifer Aniston] had something to do with it. Trying to pretend the marriage was something that it wasn't."
What makes it even more harsh is that Brad then goes on a gushy rave about how amazing Angelina is, and how incredible they are together.
"[Now] I put much more emphasis on being a satisfied man. I'm satisfied with making true choices and finding the woman I love, Angie, and building a family that I love so much.
"One of the greatest, smartest things I ever did was give my kids Angie as their mom. She is such a great mom. Oh man, I'm so happy to have her."
So, let's get this straight. Jen made you feel like a total loser and Ange makes you say corny stuff like 'oh man'?

Thetford Corp. forms new marine division
Posted onTo further advance its growth in the boating market, Thetford Corp. established a dedicated global marine division.
Gianluca Silvestri was named business unit manager of the Thetford Marine Division as part of this new strategic corporate plan. He is responsible for unifying the company's Tecma, Thetford and Norcold brands in marine segments throughout the Americas, Europe and Asia.
Tecma includes china toilets with Italian design, and sanitation systems. Thetford manufactures contemporary cooktops and stoves, and Norcold makes built-in and portable compressor refrigerators for onboard use.
Silvestri comes to Michigan-based Thetford with more 10 years of business management experience. He will integrate the three Thetford brands in marine markets and reinforce the company's position as a leading supplier.
"We have a strong range of quality products among Tecma, Thetford and Norcold. By establishing this global marine division we can better meet the needs of boatbuilders, yards and retail customers," Silvestri said in a statement.

Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Baby blue!
Facts about Baby blue

- Age: Puppy
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Female
Baby blue's Info...

Other Pets at Ruff Rehab Inc - Pompton Lakes Chapter
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Baby blue, a Pompton lakes Pit Bull Terrier puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Pit Bull Terrier for sale in Pompton lakes, or seeking a Pit Bull Terrier puppy from a breeder in Pompton lakes.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Pompton lakes already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Pompton lakes breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Pit Bull Terrier breeders who help with Pit Bull Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Pompton lakes paves the way for another one to be saved.

What: Colorful decals for
Who: Tania Calley of Brennick
Where: Laguna Niguel,
When: Started in 2000
Tania Calley has to be the coolest mom on the block. Since founding her business last April, she's brightened neighborhoods nationwide with her Scooter Tattoos, a line of colorful decals for inline scooters. The idea originally struck Calley, 35, as a way to set her son's scooter apart from others in the neighborhood.
Available in six fun patterns-like Aloha Red and Flower Power Blue-the easily removable decals retail for about $8 each and are sold at toy and sporting goods stores. Profits are rolling in, and Calley expects $100,000 in 2001 sales.
"It's all about timing and keeping things fresh," Calley says. "I was quick to act."

Faces, like khakis and the space-time continuum, look best when wrinkle-free. Iron out head creases with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options
- $49 for a microdermabrasion treatment with a glycolic facial peel (a $124 value)
- $99 for a microdermabrasion treatment with either a laser hair-removal session for the chin or upper lip or a laser dark-spot treatment for one area of the face (a $200 value)
The 35- to 40-minute treatment begins with a consultation to identify specific skin troubles. During the microdermabrasion treatment, an aesthetician cleanses and massages the face before using a diamond-tipped wand to jettison away old cells, effectively diminishing fine lines, acne scars, and discoloration. Subsequently, the glycolic facial peel leaves skin polished and glowing like an unsuspecting firefly in a ladybug lineup, and lasers target either unwanted facial fuzz or hyperpigmentation. Sun exposure should be avoided for two weeks after treatment. Additional packaging available from Innerhealth for those who purchase Groupons as gifts.
Innerhealth's staff of physicians and licensed acupuncturists treats medical and psychological conditions while stressing the beneficial effects of holistic treatments and organic products. Guiding the practice is Dr. Angela Pfaffenberger, a PhD in psychology who has 20 years of experience in the Oriental medicine field. Also a teacher at the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine, she has twice presented her research at the American Psychological Association's annual convention and regularly has her academic work published in peer-reviewed journals and coloring books. Dr. Pfaffenberger and staff help clients feel better through microcurrent facial rejuvenation, acupuncture, psychotherapy, and weight-loss management based around each individual's unique needs.

To walk through an African street is more entertaining and enthralling and a lot more inclusively hands-on than a drive in a game park
The last time I was in Jo'burg six or seven years ago, it was a frightening city, unravelling into medieval crime. On my most recent visit, I got out of the airport and was amazed – it's a new place, really astonishing. Areas you'd never have walked through have grown cafés and boutiques. There's an atmosphere. It feels like a collective decision to get better, to get on and up.
There's arts and music – loads of music. There's theatre and there's the new apartheid museum, which just rams a lump down your throat. There are very few artefacts. It's a journey through history commissioning an execution of apartheid, told with photographs and film and hundreds of televisions. If that sounds dull, then it's because I'm not explaining it properly. It's a cross between a moving scrapbook and an art installation. It's also the most thoughtful and emotional couple of hours I've spent in a museum for years.
The divisive story is told inclusively and if you've never been to South Africa, you can have no idea how difficult, restrained and courageous that is. The museum is a lesson in how history doesn't have to have consequences or at least not the ones that were written on the packet. Fate is open to apologies. A year ago, I'd never have suggested to a tourist that they take time to visit Jo'burg but now you've simply got to.
Not just the apartheid museum and the townships and the markets and cafés, the music and jacarandas, and the high, dry veldt, but you should go because this is the luckiest place in the unluckiest continent. This year, the UN pointed out that Africa tipped from being an agrarian continent to an urban one. More Africans live in cities than in the country. And almost all tourists who come to Africa with the best liberal intentions come to see animals and wilderness – very few come to see Africans.
No pride of lions is as exciting as an African market. To walk through an African street is more entertaining and enthralling and a lot more inclusively hands-on than a drive in a game park. If you want to feel the rhythm of the dark heart, then go to an African city. I'd go to Jo'burg.

This is a decent moisturizer but for it does not provide enough moisture for my slightly dry areas. It's definitely lightweight. I wouldn't say my skin is 'deeply hydrated' as claimed though, so I could see this as a ok moisturizer for the summer time.. but I wouldn not repurchase.

I purchased this in hopes that it would be more moisturizing than my Neutrogena SPF 30 moisturizer that I use in the warmer months. The price was right and I liked that it was oil free and still had some UV protection. The lotion smelled very nice and made my skin feel soft and smooth. I was hoping it would be a little bit thicker and moisturizing for my dry, winter skin. However, I believe if it were, it might cause me to break out, which this lotion did not. Overall, this is a very good product for the price if you are looking for a light, non greasy moisturizer that is oil free.

OK, so my experience with this moisturizer has been good and bad. I bought this at a local CVS because it was 50% off and I was in need of a moisturizer ASAP. When I first applied this onto my face I felt this weird sensation which was weird because I personally do not have sensitive skin. I was worried that the moisturizer would break my skin out but I've been using it for a couple of days now and it hasn't caused any type of reaction. The 'sensation' has stopped now that my skin is getting used to it. The scent is pleasant and the texture of it on my skin is not bad either. It's not the most lightweight moisturizer but it's certainly not heavy on the skin. One good thing about it is that it's turned out to be a GREAT primer for my makeup! My foundation will run on smooth and cover up any blemishes and acne scars without making that area of the skin appear dry. Unfortunately, I don't think I'm going to buy this product again only because I'm searching for a really lightweight moisturizer and this just doesn't cut it for me. The packaging is nice since it has a pump.

This stuff burned my skin when I first put it on. Overtime I found it to be very moisturizing, so I endured the sting and kept using it. About a week in my skin began to feel tight, like I hadn't moisturized at all. (To the touch it was soft and smooth, but my face felt stretched and abused.)
Will never buy again. Awful experience.

I really love this moisturizer! I started using the Gel/Cream moisturizer last winter (which I also love) and picked this up in the spring when I saw it on the shelf. I loved that it had SPF, though I do wish it was higher. This moisturizer feels great on my skin. Very lightweight - yet moisturizing - and does give a bit of a cool, refreshed feeling (but not in that synthetic menthol-y type way). It doesn't irritate my moderately sensitive skin at all, seems to give my skin the perfect amount of moisture in that it never makes my skin look or feel oily at all, and I never have any dryness. It's light enough that it helps my foundation and other makeup stay put. It's very affordable and comes in an attractive bottle with a pump. And a little goes a long way! I will definitely repurchase.

Finally.....a moisturizer with SPF that doesn't break me out! Works great, my skin is hydrated but not slimey. It's lightweight and the pump is very convenient. The price is very inexpensive and works better for me than the most expensive moisturizers I've purchased. Thank you Garnier for a great product!!!!

LOVE this moisturizer! it is everything I wanted for my daytime moisturizer.It's very light for my combo skin and my skin actually absorb this lotion instead of just feels like its sitting on my skin like the olay's lotion.My skin is acne-prone and sensitive but this lotion (so far) doesnt break me out and i have been using it for a month now despite of its being fragranced moisturizer.But if you are like me and have driy,flaky acne spots make sure you put an extra layer on those spots because of how light the lotion is.I also like the packaging and you algo get tons of product for less than $10.

I bought this to use in the morning before I put makeup on. Previously, I was using the Clinique Acne Moisturizer, or the Clean&Clear dual action moisturizer. Both of those either just stuck on my face like sticky glue or sat on top of my face and made it more oily.
I like this Garnier product a lot. I havent tried any of their face products (except for their makeup wipes a few times), so Im really impressed with how this moisturizer is performing.
The SPF is the main reason I got it, but the smell is SPECTACULAR. I feel like most Garnier products smell the same, but it is an amazing smell. If you dont like fragrance, it might not be for you. Its more of a natural fragrance opposed to a super chemically perfumy smell. The formula is also very lightweight, it absorbs easily, and doesnt leave oily residue. Just leaves your skin feeling soft and ready for whatever. The pump is an awesome added bonus, it locks if you turn it to the left, so no worries about spills when traveling. The bottle is also a very generous size, and I have found I really only need one pump to cover my whole face. In comparison, the Clean&Clear moisturizer takes like 2-3 pumps to get enough product. Love this stuff, will repurchase.

So far, this is the only moisturizer that my skin will tolerate. I used to use Cetaphil and Olay, respectively, and I found that they either left my face an oil slick or broke me out. I've been using this for about a year every morning after I wash my face. This didn't aggravate my rosacea like Olay had. I'm lucky to not have overly dry skin, so this even works fine during the winter time. My only qualm is that I wish it had at least 20 SPF, as most sunscreens for the face clog my pores too easily.

If Oprah Winfrey is willing to plug "Ethical Oil", why stop with the tar sands?
Canada is trying to hit one out of the ballpark with a brazen attempt to re-brand some of the world's dirtiest and most dangerous oil as "ethical". They've even got Oprah Winfrey's Network to feature their ads. If we pull it off, there's no reason to stop there. If an "ethical" brand make-over can make our tar sands smell sweet, just imagine how many other profitable, but deadly, industries it can pry open for us.
Ethical Oil
Talk about an image problem!
The Alberta tar sands are widely feared. Hundreds of people have been arrested in both the USA and Canada protesting the expansion of our tar sands. Europe and California are working to ban them. Climate activists have called the climate pollution from our tar sands the biggest "carbon bomb" on the continent.
The top climate scientist in the US, James Hansen of NASA, says that exploiting them means "game over" for our climate and that any government that allows infrastructure to be built to expand tar sands pollution "either they don't 'get it' or they simply do not care about the future of young people."
The Dalai Lama and Archbishop Tutu along with seven other Nobel Peace Prize winners recently called on our Prime Minister "to use your power to halt the expansion of the tar sands. Further exploitation of the tar sands will … make turning the clock back on climate change impossible." They specifically said that curbing climate pollution is a "profoundly moral decision, one that deserves to be placed alongside any other major struggle in human history."
The US Environmental Protection Agency says that turning "Alberta asphalt" into oil dumps 80% more climate destabilizing gases into our already whacked out weather system than developing other available oil sources would. The exploding scale of the tar sands is single-handedly preventing Canada from controlling our climate destabilizing pollution, despite Prime Minister Stephen Harper promising the world that we would. And we haven't even gotten to the part about ripping up the boreal forests, or duck-killing, toxic lakes, or cancer clusters, or oil fouled rivers.
Audacious marketing trick: the "Ethical Canada" brand
Here is where the miracle of marketing comes in.
Sure you are stuck with a product that by all accounts is more polluting and destructive than the exact same product from your competition. And sure your customers are starting to feel that all the extra damage caused by your product makes it a less ethical choice for them. Don't worry. Marketing magic says you just pretend your weakness is really your greatest strength. Voila: "ethical oil". Wasn't that slick?
You might have noticed that the "ethical" in "ethical oil" doesn't actually refer to the oil. Nope. That battle is lost. The "ethical" instead refers to the general behaviour of the people that happen to live in the same nation as the multi-nationals' carbon mines.
Neat trick, eh?
If you're having trouble marketing a dirtier and more dangerous product, just change the subject and market something completely different: like Canadian goodness.
Now the correct statement would be something like "unethical oil from a nation that also does some ethical things". But seriously, we are talking marketing here, not boy scouts. To paraphrase that great green marketer, the Wizard of Oz: "pay no attention to that nasty product behind the curtain."
Now if Big Oil and our Harper government can pull off this audacious "ethical" branding trick, why on earth would we stop at "oil"? There are a myriad of unethical products that we could re-habilitate and profit from just by masking their foul smell with the new pine-scented "ethical Canada" brand. If there are jobs on the line, we almost have to do it. Here are a few to consider:
Ethical Asbestos
I know what you're thinking: not even marketing can make a known carcinogenic product, like asbestos that you refuse to even put warning labels on, into an "ethical" product. Yes, yes, Canadians wouldn't be caught alive using our own fibrous, cancer-causing, asbestos. We export it all.
Neat, eh?
And, yes, again, Canada spends millions of dollars a year to very carefully -- while wearing hazmat suits -- remove any asbestos we find in our own buildings. Seriously, who wants asbestos in their home? And sure Canada was the only nation willing to block an international treaty requiring warning labels on asbestos.
But all that negativity about our asbestos will melt away when our "ethical asbestos" brand hits the airwaves. You see, we have lots of Canadians who have nothing to do with our nasty asbestos products. Many play hockey. Even more vote. So we have plenty of warm fuzzy "ethical" out there in our big nation to strip mine and sell off.
Let's take a look at our closest competitor in the offloading asbestos game: Kazakhstan. It just sounds "unethical". But don't just take our marketing panel's word for it. Newsweek picks Canada as seventh "best" country and Kazakhstan as…wait for it…61st. Nuf said.

Good one Barry !your points
Good one Barry !
your points reminded me Dr. Albert Barlett's Laws related to Sustainability, in particular laws # 16 and 17 that say:
16 - Starving people don't care about sustainability
17 - The addition of the word "sustainable" to our vocabulary, to our reports, programs and papers, to the names of our academic institutes and research programs, and to our community initiatives, is not sufficient to ensure that our society becomes sustainable.
Just change in the above laws the word sustainable for ethical and we have the Canadian approach for being ethical.
Thanks for this article, which alerts us to the fact that the world is going to end, although not necessarily by December, 2012. Knowing that the world is not going to STOP using fossil fuels NOW, and that humanity is rushing headlong into the abyss, only reaffirms my low opinion of humanity and that we don't deserve the oasis we call earth. But to think of us turning the earth into Venus so that no living thing survives only shows how utterly disgusting humanity is.
I think the Ethical Oil
I think the Ethical Oil campaign is fooling exactly no one. Everyone in NA knows the Keystone XL pipeline would never be approved by the Obama admin if the US economy wasn't in the toilet. And I can't imagine the people of BC are especially eager to have their own pipe dream to China fufilled.
Let the man do his job, at least he's on our side.
If you ignore what the science says, then you are ignorant. The Alaskan pipeline has broke through natural shifting of our earth. Scares me. Being totally free from fuels is going to take alot of time and money, we will have if Obamas jobs bill gets passed to get the taxes comming in again. Then we can get the people back to work, Where the contractors buy only American products made in America to build these bridges, highways, lighting, gas, barriers, down to the cones that are used. What an America that would be.... than we could take all those taxes comming in by all those working people and do something really big with renewable energy....immagine if we bought only from union factories, and everything built union. OUR MIDDLE CLASS IS BACK. What a great America that would be.
My main objection to the distortions that the "environmentalists" are presenting, as compared to the distortions that the oil companies are presenting, is that eliminating the oil sands industry would reduce world wide GHG emissions by less that 0.5%. The focus needs to be on consumption of fossil fuels, especially coal fired power plants in the US and China. (The Taichung Power Plant in Taiwan emits about 42 megatonnes of CO2 per year, compared to 45 megatonnes for the entire oil sands industry).
coal-fired...what's that
Wisconsin coal-fired plants also produce more CO2 than all of the oil sands put together. That is only one tiny state too.
Give Your Head A Shake!
This is ridiculous, would you rather drilling for oil in the Gulf of Mexico where millions of creatures and people live? or extract oil using conventional mining techniques no different than coal, gold or potash as they do up in Northern Alberta's "Oil Sands".
I love how people have so much negativity on the subject when they have never seen the truth themselves. Go look at any other oil extraction process. Take Venezuela for example. Do you think they have the stringent environmental laws that Alberta does? Do you think that Texas thinks twice about putting another drilling operation in play months after the most devastating oil disaster in the world?
Well written article I must say, but reality sinks in when you're a Canadian trying to put a halt to the Oil Sands, while letting billions of $ in potential exports be produced in other countries.
Also if you knew anything about the oil and gas industry you would see that processing shale gas has a larger environmental impact then the oil sands.
Give your head a shake, if you want to spur change find an alternative solution.
