Winter how I loathe you. 😔 this product is great. Takes a lot to get use to it but so worth it. It's pricey for a drugstore product. Like $6. It has a white tint to it. But I feel like its nothing overbearing. Texture... Mmm like butter with grains of bread in it. Weird I know. It sits on ur lips for a very long time like hours long. That's what makes me like this product! Whatever u do DO NOT get this in ur mouth or around ur taste buds the taste lingers. A lil bit of product goes a long way. I always have to have it around if not I start licking my lips.

Eh, not really. At first I liked it, the bottle is good. But it has a slight aftertaste and it makes your lips kind of coated, like it takes a while to absorb. I just find I end up using vaseline cocoa butter in a small jar as a lip balm more often. My daughter loves this stuff though. I just think for the price I probably won't get it again. It was pretty gross.

I've tried many lip balms, and there is nothing that quite works for me. I have not been very pleased by any that I've tried, but out of all of them this one is the best. It has spf 20 and it is pretty moisturizing. The only problem that I have with it is that after a while (couple of months it lasts me) the ingredients inside start to separate, so the cream-like consistency and the oil separate and i get only the oil coming out. It's fine if you use it faster though. I should be using lip products more quickly though so it's really not that bad.

I hate this product. If you're with severely cracked lips like I was, don't even think about using this. Not only did it worsen the dehydration, it gave me an allergic reaction along with the rash I already had on my mouth. I dared to uncap it again today to look at it and when I squeezed a little out, oils came out instead of the cream. It separates, a lot too! For $5.49, I could have bought three mini tubs of Vaseline, which would have been much better for my lips. It's very strong, it's not very soothing, the smell isn't the most welcoming, and the taste isn't either. I could be going too harsh on this, but if you've got sensitive lips, I really don't recommend this. I was shocked, I honestly thought this would help with the irritation and dryness. It only made it worse. Would not buy again. ):

I absolutely HATE this particular lip balm. It feels extremely oily on my lips, it also has a grainy texture to it, the scent and taste is not pleasant, and did not find this moisturizing at all. The only reason why I gave this a 1, was because of the SPF 20.

I bought this because I love neosporin overnight renewal therapy and thought this would be great for the day bc of the SPF . This product tastes gross and left my lips cracked and dry. Baby lips or kiehls lip balm are a much better alternative in my opinion.

This is a very good basic lip conditioner with an added bonus of SPF 20. Keeps your lips hydrated and soft. It's a creamy white texture that rubs in clear and I didn't notice a strong scent. I especially like to use this in the summer and at the beach.

just got this 3 days ago. the only reason why i picked this product up is because it was "#1 doctor recommended" and usually neosporin is a good brand. however it puffed my lips up so bad on the third day, it gave me cold sores. it might work for those with mild chapped lips than someone who always have severely chapped lips. today i am using cortizone (used for cracked nipples) to stop the redness/puffiness/itchyness and it seems to be working fast. thank goodness, because school started today and i didn't want to look like i had bad plastic surgery. but im still going to look for a lip balm for chapped lips :\ lmk if you guys find one.

My lips stay moisturized with this product longer than lip balms. However it has not improved the condition of my lips. I just enjoy the feel of this lip therapy, its great under lipstick, and I also like that it has spf20. If I had to buy anything, I would definitely buy this again.

Imagine your body has 100 units of recovery at its disposal. When you do a workout, for example chest, back and biceps, your body allocates a certain number of units of recovery to each body part. Which body parts do you think will get the most units of recovery in this example? The chest and back, of course, because they are larger. Where does that leave the smaller biceps? Lagging.

Are you as frustrated as I am (was) about the negative postings on most products? Nobody seems to want to post POSITIVE feedback about their ovens, only negative postings. Our Thermador Professional Wall Oven is wonderful and is of very high quality. We were not necessarily on a budget when selecting this upper end model, PODC302J, but quite honestly the choice was really a matter of which model "looked good" and had the least solid state controls. We wanted "knobs" in lieu of fancy control panels, to reduce the possibility of costly control board failures. This oven also comes with slow closing oven doors and smooth gliding oven racks. So we chose this model and are very pleased with it's performance. As you may notice, everyone seems to want to post negative only, information on products, which after reading so many, I was afraid to pick any oven, for fear it might fail. Don't be fooled, find something you like and make certain you feel comfortable you'll get good backup service from that appliance store. We purchased an extended warranty lasting 2-years, over and beyond Thermador's standard 2-year warranty, for a total of 4-years. While I could have installed the oven myself, we decided to have the wall oven professionally installed by the appliance store installer, to eliminate any disputes, should something fail during the warranty period. This was a good decision and much less stressful since the installation was more involved than I first thought. Thus far we are very pleased with our purchase of our Thermador oven. |

Thank you so much for posting this! We are building and have become paralyzed to bite the bullet on appliances because of all the negative reviews. I've just decided I am going to focus on customer service and who stands by their products. Every brand is bound to have an issue or two but if the company stands by their products and takes care of you, that makes all the difference. |
Don't be fooled by rotary controls on exterior of the panel. There still likely is one or more electronic boards behind the panel. The dials function to program the board for bake mode, temperature, etc. ... rotary knobs in lieu of pushbuttons or touchpads but the system is still electronic. I don't find a specific parts listing for PODC302J but I do find a similar model PODC30201. It has a display module board behind the control panel, a separate control board mounted at the rear above the upper oven, a power supply module, a couple transformers and various sensors. |
I like my new Bosch 300 series oven for many reasons including its quiet fan, and the knobs. I don't particularly care if it's electronic behind; the user interface counts for a lot in my book. I find knobs so much faster and easier to use, regardless of what they're doing behind the panel. And in keeping with positive posts, I give kudos to our dealer Abt Appliance who, even though they let us buy a Whirlpool first, put up with our schedules and desires and cabinet needs to get us cooking happily and quietly away with our Bosch. |

But I'm afraid to tell you: it's swedish hipster shit…
Jeeesus!!! I'm not a hipster! That's the fault of my ears… Those capricious bitches are always trying to embarrass me! I attempt sometimes to convince them: "Can't you just settle for something popular, something bland and inoffensive like Miley Cyrus or Jonas Brothers?" But they constantly act like bloody beatnicks under influence. They love those songs where there's no chorus to hum in unison, those bands with badly dressed people who sing occasionally out of tune but always with the spirit of adventure! One day, I will cut off those misbelievers and throw them inside the eternal flames of a Virgin Megastore….
They never made a "20 worst weekly magazines" list because they were sure to hit the jackpot!

Just ask "Crazy Sexy Cancer" survivor/filmmaker Kris Carr of Bearsville, the creator and star of a documentary and soon-to-be-published self-help book of the same name. "Crazy Sexy Cancer" makes a local debut with its first regional screening June 29 as part of the pre-season Woodstock Film Festival.
"People say to me, what's so sexy about cancer? What I tell them is: 'Women who have it, we're living, vibrant, crazy, sexy, struggling, normal women."
Over the last four years, while fighting relentlessly negative diagnoses of cancer that had infiltrated her liver and lungs, Carr has given up acting to become a documentary filmmaker, fallen in love, learned how to fly via trapeze, married, moved into a new home in Woodstock and created a sort of multimedia cancer-fighting franchise.
What started as a life-saving gambit turned into joyful exploration.
"In the midst of the desperation, I was starting to have fun," Carr said in the documentary.
Interviewed in the Bearsville home she shares with husband/filmmaker Brian Fasset, Carr, who is now 35, laughed at a pop-quiz on how to spell her disease.
Fifteen letters into spelling out the sub-category of her cancer, it was helpful for her to have Fasset at her side. Caught up on whether it was epithelioid hemangioendothelioma, or epithelioid hemengioendothelioma, Fassett spoke up and said "hemAn."
A vascular cancer, the disease has infiltrated Carr's lungs and liver, creating 24 tumors. While the tumors triggered by the disease are normally slow growing, the prognosis is almost always extremely dark.
Although there are some tears (and comically foul language) the film itself is mostly upbeat and full of life-embracing moments. Carr said she gained strength and perspective from other women who fought cancer with creativity and verve by specifically seeking them out.
"I couldn't help but wonder how other cancer chicks dealt with this," she said.
Some embraced the baldness that came with their treatments, others put on wigs and hats that said "FXXX Cancer."
She had a sense of humor about many of the new age treatments that were offered to complement what her Western doctors were suggesting. Sometimes she shook her head and laughed at the crystals or resonating healing tones waved in her direction, but she tried many of the methods anyway.
At the other end of the spectrum, she wondered at a cluster of smokers hanging out at a major cancer hospital.
"Helloooooo people!" she said, knocking her knuckle on her head.
She also tried the macrobiotic kale-burdock-daikon-whole-grain-steamed-bread diet. Macrobiotic diets are supposed to benefit from ingredients that digest well together.
To a point.
At a buffet that a cluster of vegetarians was oohing over, Carr waggled her eyebrows and said: "A plateful of gas!"
In her quest for health, Carr also internalized much wheatgrass juice (and not a few wheatgrass enemas.)
She also went through a raw phase, eating only uncooked ingredients, but that got old after a point. "I don't think I can put another raw thing into my stomach," she said when wavering.
By now, she has found a happy medium between all the dietary and exercise extremes.
She is still a vegan (no dairy or meat) and has hung on to the wheatgrass juice habit, squeezing and juicing clumps of the green shoots regularly.
During the interview, Fasset said they had just completed a flat of wheatgrass, and had had a breakfast including many vegetables juiced together.
When considering the cause of her cancer, she delved into possible environmental and attitudinal sources. Her spiritual exploration considered everything from what her personal guru Bhagavan Das had to say: "Stinkin' thinking is the problem," to whether she had karmically brought on the disease through inconsiderate behavior, the consumption of alcohol or the inhalation of illicit drugs.
Carr, who was starring in Budweiser Superbowl commercials the same year she was diagnosed, lived a rollicking lifestyle before settling down. From this point forward, she sees herself as more of a filmmaker and author. She described the soon-to-be published companion book to her film, which is also named "Crazy Sexy Cancer," to be "A girlfriends' guide to cancer."
To be sure their projects do no harm, Carr and Fasset said they are conscious not to put out a prescription for how every cancer patient should deal with their disease. Each case is unique and the science is nowhere near certain on most treatments, Fasset said.
Nonetheless, Fasset said he has been amazed by how viewers come away from screenings of the film feeling as if it validates whatever perspectives they come from, he said. "People hear what they want to hear, on both sides."
For his part, participating in most of Carr's regime has Fasset, who is 41, feeling less creaky. "I never get colds anymore," he said.
Beyond Carr and Fasset, there are plenty of local people and scenes in the film. One scene is filmed from the apex of Overlook Mountain (where the pair had their first date). Carr hunts for cancer-fighting books at Golden Notebook and shops for cancer-fighting vegetables at Sunfrost Farms, both in Woodstock.
The film leaves off with Carr getting a positive checkup at the doctor's office. Her cancer tumors seemed to have stopped in mid-development, according to the scans, and she becomes more optimistic than ever.
"I actually created a term myself, because most people really need to hear the word remission otherwise they can't take another breath. I call it progression-free remission," she said in the interview. "I talked to my doctor and he said, 'That's pretty smart.' It basically means it's just hanging out. It's like a light switch that's been turned off."
Carr's message goes beyond fighting cancer, she said. "I think anybody who has experienced any sort of adversity will be inspired by our attitude and how we head-butt it. That's the broader message of the film."

What's the best bottle cutter on the market?
About a year or so ago, I found myself shopping for a bottle cutter. I spotted an inexpensive one at my local craft store, and since I had a project in mind that required a bottle cutter, I bought it. As it turned out, that wasn't a good idea. It didn't cut so much as scrape. Plus, I wanted to cut slanty bottles (at the neck, actually) and it certainly wouldn't do that. (Can any cutter do that?) I put it back into its box and stuck it in the closet in my craft room and that's where it's been ever since. Now, after seeing so many more great recycling projects out there, like the tumblers pictured above, I want to give glass cutting another go. So, to make a long story a short question...what's the best bottle cutter on the market?

Does it matter if organizations have a policy about use of consumer technology at work? When I talk to staff and mid-level IT employees (particularly those in the communication and collaboration departments) it's clear that even if those policies exist they are often bunk.
Our U.S. Symposium survey showed about three quarters of the 189 people that took the survey work in organizations that have a policy (90% of the time that policy is to disallow their use). My question today, is what are the cultural impacts when there is an obvious disconnect between policy and practice in an organization? There are many other impacts, such as opening up security holes and e-discovery vulnerability. But I've seen a lot written on security and e-discovery risks of employees using consumer devices and websites for work. I haven't seen much on the cultural impacts:
- It creates a new group of "haves" and "have nots". The "haves" are usually in two categories: techies and execs. Techies possess the technical savvy to use devices or get to websites of their choice despite lack of assistance or blocks from IT. Or sometimes they can declare them a "research" or a "pilot". Execs possess the authority to ignore the policy without fear of reprisal.
- It creates a status marker. By flashing around a forbidden iPad with full access to enterprise e-mail, the out-of-compliance employee is demonstrating that they are more technically savvy, have more authority (or immunity from rules), or are more fearless than the cowering masses around them.
- It hampers the authority of other policies. Other policies, from dress code to travel guidelines, may seem unrelated to use of iPhones or LinkedIn at work. But open flaunting of technology use policies calls into question the need to comply with other policies as well.
My point is not that there should be iron-fisted enforcement. First, I'm just thinking aloud about the cultural impact of consumer use policies and would like to know if others have observed the same. If I'm right, then I'd argue organizations shouldn't publish these policies if they don't plan to enforce them because not having a policy may be less damaging than having one that is frequently and publicly flaunted.

Photos: Silicon Junkies' eye-popping entry in the Red Bull Creation contest
Most people don't happen to have thousands of LED lights lying around a workshop.Big photos below.
And most people don't have two 3-D printers and other tools needed to create an interactive light display controlled by cellphones and containing more than 3,000 bulbs.
But for Boulder's Silicon Junkies, all these pieces add up to just another roll in the technological hay. They would have you believe that anyway.
The Silicon Junkies are group of four members of the Boulder hacker space Solid State Depot, and together, they've created an entry for Red Bull Creation competition, a self-described "innovation competition" that allows entrants to take a piece of Red Bull-designed hardware -- the "TurBULL Encabulator" -- and incorporate it into a fully functional project of, well, anything they can dream up involving LEDs. The Encabulator basically functions as a control board for an LED lighting system.
The contest is open to 200 groups of contestants, and this year, the Junkies managed to snag one of the Encabulators and put together a project that is equal parts fun, jaw-dropping and creative: the affectionately named "Interactive Encabulatrix."The Solid State Depot work space.
Although the project is fully collaborative, it was Dan Julio, an entrepreneur who owns an LED lighting company, who was the team member responsible for generating interest in entering the competition. "I do LEDs, and when I saw it was an LED contest...."
"Dan is the man with the LED plan," interjects a laughing Bryant Hadley, fellow Silicon Junkies member and fabrication technician.
It's this kind of easy interaction that best characterizes the Junkies: four guys with different fortés who like to mess around with tools and computers. Take Ben Burdette: A computer programmer during the day, he had been messing around with computer code scripts for lights that could be controlled by a regular smart phone. "I thought, 'I've been working on these little controls anyway, it will just be minimal effort....'The TurBull Encabultor unit.
"Famous last words," he adds, sparking more laughter from the other Junkies.

We're nearing the end of this year's legislative session in Washington, but things aren't cooling off quite yet.
In the second part of Tuesday's Up to Date, U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill joins Steve Kraske to discuss the future of the farm bill, the rollout of the Affordable Care Act, the recent House budget deal and what's going on with John Boehner after his speech about the Tea Party to Republican lawmakers.
With the House of Representatives and the president once again butting heads over the federal budget, a government shutdown is looking more likely by the day.
On Tuesday's Up to Date, Bob Bixby of the Concord Coalition joins Steve Kraske to talk about the economy, the effect a shutdown could have on the country if Congress doesn't pass a new budget and how the debt ceiling debate figures into the equation.
So imagine you've got a budget for home improvements. You've pared it down to the bare bones. You know exactly how much you can afford and you won't spend any more than that. Now cut that budget in half. What things do you leave behind? And what are your top priorities?
This exact situation is happening to the Missouri Department of Transportation. With their budget being slashed to just about half, MoDOT is preparing to enter maintenance mode.
The Missouri House has formally rejected the Senate version of the state budget, setting the stage for final negotiations over the state's spending plan for next year.
The Kansas City region has been recovering from the recession at a slightly faster clip than many other places across the country.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill, a Democrat, says that falling over the so-called fiscal cliff, the deep program cuts, and big tax increases set to hit January 1st wouldn't be as dramatic as some people imagine.
Governor Jay Nixon is in Afghanistan visiting members of the Missouri National Guard who won't be home for the holidays.
Lawmakers in Missouri and Kansas wrap up their legislative sessions. A study finds compared to 50 years ago more severe weather is hitting the Midwest. It's a daily digest of headlines from KCUR.
Despite a recent article in The Kansas City Star titled "Sting of recession fades for Kansas City art museums," the sting has not faded - and perhaps still burns - for newly terminated employees at the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art.
A Kansas lottery ticket winner is helping the state's bottom line. The still-anonymous resident won a nearly $160 million jackpot in a lottery drawing last month.
He's just returned from lengthy deliberations in the U.S. House of Representatives over next year's spending plan. But is Congress getting anywhere?
Originally published on Tue April 3, 2012 12:08 pm
Renewing his push against "trickle-down economics" that he says has failed the nation in the past, President Obama just said the Republican budget plan passed by the House last week is so conservative and so focused on cutting taxes for the rich that it makes the GOP's mid-1990s Contract With America "look like the New Deal."
Kansas City Mayor Sly James presented his vision for next year's city budget and a lot more.
Kansas City, Missouri City Manager Troy Schulte's recently proposed budget recommendations for 2012 include a number of cuts, most notably a reduction of more than 100 positions in the fire department. On Wednesday, Fire Chief Smokey Dyer told the City Council's public safety committee that the proposed cuts would violate national fire safety standards.
Governor Sam Brownback's budget proposal would reinstate some funding for arts programs, but would do away with the Kansas Arts Commission. The Kansas Film Commission and Arts Commission would be combined to become the Kansas Creative Industries Commission.
The governor's budget would provide $200,000 to the new organization. State Budget Director Steve Anderson says that money would be available for arts programs that create economic development.
The President's budget, which was made public yesterday, pegs $150 million for the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility. That's the Level 4 laboratory designed to test highly contagious pathogens and foreign animal diseases operated by the Department of Homeland Security. DHS awarded the $650 million project to K-State a couple of years ago.
Officials told reporters in a teleconference yesterday they were happy with the budget proposal.
Kansas City, MO – The Kansas City, Mo., finance department verified Wednesday that after two years of major spending cuts the city has money in the bank. And the mayor and council members immediately started talking about how much more the city should borrow.
The 34.2 million dollars the city has in its general fund today, day one of its new fiscal year, is about 8 percent of this year's budget. That's the largest balance in a decade, and the city's credit rating is also at its highest in ten years.
Jefferson City, Mo. – The House Budget Committee spent nearly four hours Wednesday night amending and voting on bills that make up the state budget.
Committee members only made it through about a third of the budget bills before calling it a night.
House Budget Chair Allen Icet says so far they've identified 65 million dollars that can be trimmed from various departments.
"None of these should affect any services or anything. For the most part, it was either lapse, or funding that would be considered excess," says Icet.
Kansas City, Mo. – Missouri Governor Jay Nixon says the recent news of significantly smaller than expected revenues will mean some challenging choices for the state. The governor says he and other lawmakers are considering a number of ways to deal with the problem.

Brazil's Poisonous Snake
Name: Jenny Status: N/A Age: 10 Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: 2000-2001
What is the most poisonous snake in Brazil?
Hi Jenny!
so you are interested in snakes!
Brazil has many poisoneous snakes but the worst one is the Jararaca. Its scientific name is Bothrops jararaca, a coletive name for more than 20 species, all deadly poiseneous. The jararacas live mostly on birds and rodents, that they bite before eating them. Their size is about 1 yard and they can be found at countryside, woods, and mostly hidden at cultivated land.
They are oviviparous, that means the little jararacas (12-18), grow inside their mother body within eggs, but these eggs hatch before they are born, so the little ones are born alive!
The other one is the Cascavel, scientific name Crotalus. They live at dry places, usually near sand..
and the third one is the Surucucu, scientific name Lachesis. These ones are the bigger, and can measure almost 3 yards. Surucucu is found at forests as rain forests in Amazon, and also at tropical forests. The Surucucu has something very peculiar: its scales near the tail instead of laying down over the body blistle up!
All these serpents are very dangerous, and one must be very careful when in places where they use to stay, but luckily there are special antidotes to be taken if someone is bitten.
OK? and do you know i am from Brazil?
And many thanks for asking NEWTON!

have a leaky 80 gallon one. have tried to fix it 3 times but failed. Any other use for it?? Too deep and big for either a leaf or composter. has a rather odd shape so bags won't fit it. Any ideas??? gary |

I don't but put it on Garden Junk forum as they find all kinds of interesting things to do with junk. One lady used oxygen tubing that was green colored for leaves for flowers she made. They might have a great idea, pic would help! |
Hi Can't think of anything that falls into the catagory "junk" as much as a leaky rain barrel?? lol It's too big and deep as a composter odd shape means bags won't fit it so won't even hold trash lol. guess I'll set it in an out of the way place in the yard until i become inspired!!! Thanks gary |
How about a planter? Make it even 'leakier' by putting additional holes in the bottom. Fill with topsoil or potting soil. Plant flowers :-) We did that with a boat... I don't know why a rain barrel wouldn't work! |

Second missing Colorado teen also found submerged
Quemado, NM (KTSM) — A summer vacation turned tragic this week for a Chaparral family, after their missing teenage son died in an apparent drowning.
According to a close friend and colleague, the Stephenson family spends their summer vacations volunteering for a summer camp near Albuquerque for deaf children, as part of the Apache Creek Deaf and Youth Ranch program.
"It is an annual tradition. They go up to camp every year since I've known them, they spend their vacations up there. They're just fine people -- hard-working, God-fearing, very Christian in their outlook. It's a good family," said Grace Rendall, who works with Mark Stephenson at a Christian television station in El Paso.
But the trip would soon take a deadly turn.
On Sunday night, Mark's son, 16 year-old Seth, and another volunteer, named Noah Hooper from Colorado, went missing, after their group made a stop at Quemado Lake earlier that day.
After a three day search of the lake, using a helicopter, boat, and sonar technology, New Mexico Search and Rescue crews found two bodies.
"He [Mark] texted me today, and just told me that the boys had been found, and they're with God," said Rendall.
investigators say the two male bodies were 'submerged at the bottom of the lake."
"Seth is a very, very strong swimmer, and the lake wasn't very that deep," said Rendall.
So how could the accident have happened?
"Blackout conditions, zero visibility. Mostly muddy and very silty bottom. By silt, I mean sometimes down to two feet thick worth of silt that you would actually sink down into the bottom of the lake," said Sgt. Jeff Burke, with the New Mexico Police Dive Team.
The Apache Creek Deaf and Youth Ranch released this statement in response to the tragedy:
"These were fine young men that were volunteering to help others here at the camp. Seth loved the horses and has been a huge help the entire summer with that area. Noah had been looking forward to coming since February. He was so excited to be here."

Graphic Economics
A collection of graphic representations of data by CEPR researchers on important economic issues.
The establishment survey showed a gain of 243,000 jobs with the private sector adding 257,000. With upward revisions to job growth for the prior two months, job growth has now averaged 201,000 over the last three months. Ignoring Census hiring, this is the strongest three-month stretch since February to April of last year when job growth averaged 239,000 a month.
For more, check out the latest Jobs Byte.
It is interesting to compare the path of house prices with the owners' equivalent rent (OER) index in the CPI to get an assessment of underlying conditions in the housing market. (OER excludes utilities and therefore provides a better comparison than the rental index with sales prices as a measure of the value of housing.) The real value of this index largely peaked with a 4 percent rise in 2002. It then remained flat through the peak bubble years and has since fallen back to its pre-bubble level. This suggests that there is zero evidence of any upward pressure on prices coming from the rental segment of the market as some have claimed.
For more, check out the latest Housing Market Monitor.
A sharp reversal from the third quarter's decline in inventories added 1.94 percentage points to GDP growth in the fourth quarter, bringing the rate to 2.8 percent. Final demand grew at just a 0.8 percent rate in the quarter, a sharp drop from the 3.2 rate in the third quarter, as a 4.6 percent drop in government spending lopped almost a full percentage point off growth in the quarter.
For more, check out the latest GDP Byte.
With very high vacancy rates resulting from the housing bubble, shelter prices had grown slowly and even fell. Thus, core prices excluding shelter had grown faster than core prices in general. More recently, a slightly faster rate of growth in rent prices and a slower rate of growth outside of rent have brought the two more in line.
For more, check out the latest Prices Byte.
The number of people involuntarily working part-time fell by 406,000 in December, the third consecutive month of sharp declines. On the other side, the unemployment rate due to job leavers fell by 0.4 percentage points, suggesting workers lack confidence in their job prospects. The unemployment duration measures edged down slightly, but did not completely reverse the jump seen in October. The percentage of workers experiencing long-term hardship, a fuller measure that includes people who have left the labor force, is near 7.0 percent, roughly twice the share of workers experiencing long-term unemployment.

I have a large (12 foot or so) pencil cactus/pencil plant that got caught in our last freeze. Most of the smallest branches are now brown and look dead. However at the tips of 2 of the big trunks there is a bit of new greenery so the plant is still apparently alive.
Should I cut off all of the little dead "fingers" or just cut back the whole branch? Should I cut the whole plant (including the branches with the "green") back to a given size? We are having another serious freeze tonight and I want to bring the plant into the house and it has to be cut back just for that. Any help appreciated. Rebecca |

Rebecca, If you're talking about Euphorbia tirucalli, please be very careful of the sap that it exudes - it can be bad news to some folk, particularly on the mucous membranes. I would cut the definitely-dead smaller pieces, leaving on the larger limbs that are healthy or at least have a chance of coming back. Make sure that you have eye protection around to use as needed, gloves, and a long-sleeved shirt. Other than that, have some tepid water nearby t staunch the sap flow of any major limbs' leakage - there may be none, but then again.... Rots of ruck! |
- Posted by beachplant 9b (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Mon, Jan 4, 10 at 16:54
Just whack it back to the size that will fit in the house. They recover quickly. And if you do get the sap in your eye, jump in the shower for 15 minutes, BY THE CLOCK, aim the shower head to hit you between the eyes, blink if you can, do NOT use any eye drops of any kind. One hour after irrigation, if you have swelling, pain, tearing, blurry vision or any other symptom except redness go to the ER right then. Corneal burns are pretty common with this sap. Stay warm! We're supposed to have the coldest temps in a decade by the weekend, 15 degrees colder tomorrow morning. I hate winter. |
Thank you, folks, for all the help. I ended up cutting the plant back to about 4 feet and bringing it in the house. Since pencil cactus seem to go into shock and pout for several months after even a minor trauma (such as turning the pot a quarter turn!), I am wondering how long do I need to wait before I can tell if the plant is even alive? Since I've already whacked most of it off anyway, is there a minimum height that is best for it's recovery? I don't know why I'm so invested in this 20 year-old ugly plant! Thanks again, |
- Posted by beachplant 9b (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Sat, Jan 23, 10 at 10:50
The ones out in the garden took a hard hit. Some of the smaller ones are dead and the big ones look horrid. I'm going to whack off all the discolored parts next week when I'm off. I know about the sap, I talk to at least one person a week that has gotten the sap in their eye. To the ER they go for treatment of corneal burns! Tally Ho! |
I had a similar situation as weaver_46 --- I had a beautiful, dense pencil cactus that was about 6 feet high and 3 feet wide, but the recent freeze killed most of the stems except for those at the top. The dead stems have now fallen off the bottom and middle area, leaving 3 bare "trunks" with a few healthy shoots at the top. It's ugly. There are indentations in the trunk where the stems fell off. Does anyone know if the cactus will regrow new stems from those same indentations, or do I have to cut the cactus down to the ground and start over? Thanks! :-) |

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- A Morgan Stanley downgrade could see Symantec (SYMC - Get Report) shed losses over Monday's session. In pre-market trading, shares had dropped 2.2% to $22.95.
Morgan Stanley downgraded the tech giant to "underweight" with a $21 price target on the view the company is in flux and could see sales disruptions.
TheStreet Ratings team rates SYMANTEC CORP as a Buy with a ratings score of B-. The team has this to say about their recommendation:
"We rate SYMANTEC CORP (SYMC) a BUY. This is driven by some important positives, which we believe should have a greater impact than any weaknesses, and should give investors a better performance opportunity than most stocks we cover. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its increase in net income, reasonable valuation levels, good cash flow from operations, increase in stock price during the past year and growth in earnings per share. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had somewhat disappointing return on equity."
Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has exceeded that of the S&P 500 and greatly outperformed compared to the Software industry average. The net income increased by 27.5% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $189.00 million to $241.00 million.
- Net operating cash flow has slightly increased to $191.00 million or 7.30% when compared to the same quarter last year. The firm also exceeded the industry average cash flow growth rate of -6.97%.
- Compared to where it was 12 months ago, the stock is up, but it has so far lagged the appreciation in the S&P 500. Turning our attention to the future direction of the stock, it goes without saying that even the best stocks can fall in an overall down market. However, in any other environment, this stock still has good upside potential despite the fact that it has already risen in the past year.
- SYMANTEC CORP has improved earnings per share by 25.9% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, SYMANTEC CORP reported lower earnings of $1.05 versus $1.57 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($1.77 versus $1.05).

DB Digital Blog: DAB Transmission Report in Ireland
Oct 22, 2012 - I saw a very interesting blog entry from Dusty of DB Digital, a DAB MUX provider in Ireland. "Our first three months on-air have shown some very interesting insights into digital broadcasting.
"The most interesting results are to do with receivers where we've found high error correction and bit rates are not handled as smoothly as one would hope. On the other hand, low bit-rate DAB+ broadcasts have performed exceptionally well. MOT capable receivers have also shown outstanding performance with Slideshow on color screens making a big impression on test groups.
"Also on receivers, it is evident we have a lot of work to do in establishing the WorldDAB/EBU Profile 1 standard here in Ireland. This was introduced in 2009 to establish a Europe-wide market for manufacturers, broadcasters and consumers. Under the standard all digital radios should receive both DAB and DAB+ broadcasts. With the virtual certainty Ireland will move to DAB+ only this will be a key area of consideration.
"On the transmission side of the trial, after testing a number of transmitters we have settled on regular use of a Harris DAB [transmitter] for the Dublin area. The transmitter is configured differently from the RTE mux to allow direct A/B comparisons of both services. As expected there are differences in distance and building penetration on both. Though the higher power transmissions do increase the service area it is not as great as we had expected. This will help in the planning of our forthcoming SFN, single frequency network, part of the trial.
"Public reaction to new trial services has been very positive. We are constantly surprised by the amount of people who find our trial 'by accident' when playing with a new radio and wondering what the DAB button does!"

I'm getting my supplies tomorrow, and picking up the bees on Sunday. I'm excited! I'm really doing it for my flower garden, though since our beagle died I've wanted a pet. From what I've read bees are smarter than beagles.
Seriously, I am feeling nervous and a little awed about establishing a relationship with these creatures. It is a responsibility, isn't it? Well, wish me luck. I look forward to keeping in touch with you all. My name is Marie. I live in Lexington, Ma on about 3/4 an acre, and there are many gardens in the area where more visiting bees will be very welcome. My husband says he is afraid. Marie (aka "Idabean" that old dog's name) |

Hello Marie, Hubby and I are new at beekeeping too. We have one year into it and love it. You do become attatched to those little guys. Someone asked Adam a few days ago how many pets he has, he repiled about 80,002. (We have a dog and a cat also.) |

Marie, Welcome from a fellow Massachusetts beekeeper. I live all the way at the other end of the state(the part Mitt never visited) I'm here in North Adams, Berkshire County. If you are ever passing through, I'd love to have you visit.Just let me know. MA is a good place to keep bees. If you're anything like me, you're going to be totally hooked. |

Marie How are you doing with the bees |
Thanks for checking in diane. My beementor stopped by a week and a half ago to check the hive. I suited up in my hat, net and gloves. The queen and bees had been busy: queen laying eggs, cells full of honey and pollen. Also they had built a large burr comb, which she removed and returned so they could use the honey again. But I got a bite, and it was so unlike anything any commercial honey that I nearly swooned! During our week of very chilly rainy weather, I kept a close eye on the external syrup supply, but it was not going down. The beekeeper had loaned me an extra super when she delivered the bees because very chilly weather was predicted. I had not looked inside the super myself, but when I did, I saw the 'internal' syrup bottle...which was completely empty and the bees were all clustered around it. I immediately filled it with food, and felt bad that they had run out of syrup during this lousy weather. I am getting a sense of how things work. YOu should have seen how excited I was when I saw that burr comb; to think the bees made that in a week or so! Today is the first sunny day in ages, and they are frantically buzzing in and out of the hive. I imagine we'll take a peek at the hive in another week or so, and see how production is going. I love this! Marie |

Marie, That's great news. Every time I have a spoonful of honey I say Wow this sure is good honey! You're right it's nothing like store bought. I'm glad things are going well. I find working the hives like taking an elixer it's amazing every time you watch them work. I like to have morning coffee sitting beside the hive. It sounds like you are off to a great start. Be sure to keep good notes on every thing you do such as feeding, adding a super etc. It will be a valuable tool for next year. happy beekeeping! Tony |
Latest report: Third lesson in beekeeping was greatly enhanced by the presence of our two daughters (23,19) who are visiting from out of town. My bee-mentor brought over extra veils and gloves, everyone tucked everything into something, and we opened the hive after nearly 4 weeks of "not peeking" except to add sugar water to the jars. I learned how t0 separate the frames with the hive tool, got reminded how to pick up frame without squishing bees, we all got a chance to smoke the bees, scraped some burr comb off frames, watched expert even out some way-bumpy comb (stole some comb while we were at it) tried to eat honey through the veil, oohed and ahhed at the dense and varied comb filled with honey, larvae, capped, found the queen. In all the best two hours I and my daughters have spent together in a long, long time. And although my husband was taking a long nap, yesterday he put the new super and frames together by himself in 1 1/2 hours, with no complaints whatsoever. What a wonderful hobby. Actually, what a wonderful life. |

Marie, I'm really glad to hear that things are going so well on your side of the state. Sounds like you are doing all the right things. What more could you ask for besides living in a great state and having honey in the backyard. Last week I got a call to get honeybees out of a soffit. They went about their business while we sawed, pounded, and pried things apart.Yesterday I saved a hive from a dead willow that had fallen on a horse pasture fence and broke apart. Luckily the owners knew I kept bees or they would have been killed so the tree could get removed. I scooped some bees up and onto a drawn frame and the other bees started marching right up. After getting most of them onto frames I left the medium box over the last cluster. I went back tonight just before dark and the bees had accepted their new digs and were out foraging. After the last of them returned I closed it up and brought them home. Yes, it is a great life. Tony |

Boy did I screw up!
I measured this out, then I thought I'd also measure out some Jin Jun Mai, but I accidentally put them in the same cup! ACKCKCK!
It's all Theresa's fault (nobody really likes her much). She distracted me with her endless list of "You have to do this today", & "you need to (blah blah blah).
Luckily they look very different from one another. This one is beautiful sage with hot pink amaranth, the other is black & brown & smaller leaves. I meticulously picked them apart, & although there may be a pink flower in the Jin Jun Mei, no harm done.
Delicious & a sipdown!

CHRISTINA SABURRO LICENSED REAL ESTATE SALESPERSON 114 Perry Street, New York, NY 10014 C: 646-326-4234 | O: 212-400-2500 | F: 917-262-7912
Clients consider Christina very unique and atypical. She is an approachable and trustworthy agent who does not try to sell her clients; rather, she provides support and skills without pressure. This helps build a comfort level and inspire confident decisions. Christina believes in educating clients by showing apartments within their budget to make them aware of all their options, and then she adjusts from there. I am upfront and honest about the process and what is available, never misleading. Its important for people to feel good about an apartment and make their own informed choice, the best kind.Originally from Saratoga Springs, NY, Christina remembers being fascinated when visiting the city and walking around the West Village, one of the areas she specializes in rentals and sales today. Vowing that shed one day return permanently, she is now a seasoned New Yorker who has found homes for her clients in every neighborhood, from Harlem and the Upper East and West Sides to Chelsea, Gramercy, the East Village, Lower East Side, even Brooklyn. You name it, Ive found a great home there!A graduate of SUNY Albany with a degree in Theatre and English, Christina previously enjoyed a successful career in the restaurant industry upon arriving in NYC. She excelled to management, working in some of the most highly rated establishments in Manhattan and best known restaurateurs including Danny Meyers, Jean- Georges, Stephen Hanson, Drew Nieporent and Robert DeNiro. Her experience has enabled her to adapt to many situations and personalities, meet the discerning needs of a diverse clientele, and maintain her professionalism and grace under fire. My clients know I am always there for them. Whether you are looking to rent or buy, or sell, Christina will be there for you too. Christina is a very energetic and enthusiastic person. She does not mind going upstairs and downstairs and checking places out until you find the right apartment. She has an intuitive sense of what might work for you, and very importantly, she listens to your preferences: first, I did not know myself what I really wanted. After she had shown me a range of different places, I was able to formulate my wish list: it had to be a low rise building in walking distance to my work with an outdoor space. And low and behold, she found an apartment exactly to my specifications within a weeks time. Pretty impressive!~BrunhildI immediately loved Christina the instant I met her! As many people know, looking for the perfect apartment in NYC can be a very stressful and daunting task, but Christinas calm and carefree attitude really helped to put my nerves at ease. She was extremely knowledgeable of the rental market in NYC (and in my opinion, always had the best listings) and was helpful in managing my expectations. Most importantly, Christina LISTENED to my needs and what was important to me and never once tried to pressure or convince me to take an apartment that I didnt feel comfortable with. She made every effort to show me as many apartments that fit my requirements as needed in order for me to find the right one. She never complained or seemed annoyed with my indecisiveness, which really helped me trust her! I really consider my apartment to be a diamond in the ruff, and I couldnt be more pleased with it. Christina really was amazing, and I will continue to recommend her to everyone I know!!~ReneeI felt like I could really trust Christina. She was energetic and knew exactly what I wanted. Christina, youre my broker for life!~Neil
