Young's Literal Translation (YLT) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 O thoughtless Galatians, who did bewitch you, not to obey the truth -- before whose eyes Jesus Christ was described before among you crucified? | 1 You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified. |
2 this only do I wish to learn from you -- by works of law the Spirit did ye receive, or by the hearing of faith? | 2 I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by observing the law, or by believing what you heard? |
3 so thoughtless are ye! having begun in the Spirit, now in the flesh do ye end? | 3 Are you so foolish? After beginning with the Spirit, are you now trying to attain your goal by human effort? |
4 so many things did ye suffer in vain! if, indeed, even in vain. | 4 Have you suffered so much for nothing--if it really was for nothing? |
5 He, therefore, who is supplying to you the Spirit, and working mighty acts among you -- by works of law or by the hearing of faith [is it]? | 5 Does God give you his Spirit and work miracles among you because you observe the law, or because you believe what you heard? |
6 according as Abraham did believe God, and it was reckoned to him -- to righteousness; | 6 Consider Abraham: "He believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness." |
7 know ye, then, that those of faith -- these are sons of Abraham, | 7 Understand, then, that those who believe are children of Abraham. |
8 and the Writing having foreseen that by faith God doth declare righteous the nations did proclaim before the good news to Abraham -- | 8 The Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: "All nations will be blessed through you." |
9 `Blessed in thee shall be all the nations;' so that those of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham, | 9 So those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith. |
10 for as many as are of works of law are under a curse, for it hath been written, `Cursed [is] every one who is not remaining in all things that have been written in the Book of the Law -- to do them,' | 10 All who rely on observing the law are under a curse, for it is written: "Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law." |
11 and that in law no one is declared righteous with God, is evident, because `The righteous by faith shall live;' | 11 Clearly no one is justified before God by the law, because, "The righteous will live by faith." |
12 and the law is not by faith, but -- `The man who did them shall live in them.' | 12 The law is not based on faith; on the contrary, "The man who does these things will live by them." |
13 Christ did redeem us from the curse of the law, having become for us a curse, for it hath been written, `Cursed is every one who is hanging on a tree,' | 13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: "Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree." |
14 that to the nations the blessing of Abraham may come in Christ Jesus, that the promise of the Spirit we may receive through the faith. | 14 He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit. |
15 Brethren, as a man I say [it], even of man a confirmed covenant no one doth make void or doth add to, | 15 Brothers, let me take an example from everyday life. Just as no one can set aside or add to a human covenant that has been duly established, so it is in this case. |
16 and to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed; He doth not say, `And to seeds,' as of many, but as of one, `And to thy seed,' which is Christ; | 16 The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. The Scripture does not say "and to seeds," meaning many people, but "and to your seed," meaning one person, who is Christ. |
17 and this I say, A covenant confirmed before by God to Christ, the law, that came four hundred and thirty years after, doth not set aside, to make void the promise, | 17 What I mean is this: The law, introduced 430 years later, does not set aside the covenant previously established by God and thus do away with the promise. |
18 for if by law [be] the inheritance, [it is] no more by promise, but to Abraham through promise did God grant [it]. | 18 For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on a promise; but God in his grace gave it to Abraham through a promise. |
19 Why, then, the law? on account of the transgressions it was added, till the seed might come to which the promise hath been made, having been set in order through messengers in the hand of a mediator -- | 19 What, then, was the purpose of the law? It was added because of transgressions until the Seed to whom the promise referred had come. The law was put into effect through angels by a mediator. |
20 and the mediator is not of one, and God is one -- | 20 A mediator, however, does not represent just one party; but God is one. |
21 the law, then, [is] against the promises of God? -- let it not be! for if a law was given that was able to make alive, truly by law there would have been the righteousness, | 21 Is the law, therefore, opposed to the promises of God? Absolutely not! For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come by the law. |
22 but the Writing did shut up the whole under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ may be given to those believing. | 22 But the Scripture declares that the whole world is a prisoner of sin, so that what was promised, being given through faith in Jesus Christ, might be given to those who believe. |
23 And before the coming of the faith, under law we were being kept, shut up to the faith about to be revealed, | 23 Before this faith came, we were held prisoners by the law, locked up until faith should be revealed. |
24 so that the law became our child-conductor -- to Christ, that by faith we may be declared righteous, | 24 So the law was put in charge to lead us to Christ that we might be justified by faith. |
25 and the faith having come, no more under a child-conductor are we, | 25 Now that faith has come, we are no longer under the supervision of the law. |
26 for ye are all sons of God through the faith in Christ Jesus, | 26 You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, |
27 for as many as to Christ were baptized did put on Christ; | 27 for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. |
28 there is not here Jew or Greek, there is not here servant nor freeman, there is not here male and female, for all ye are one in Christ Jesus; | 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. |
29 and if ye [are] of Christ then of Abraham ye are seed, and according to promise -- heirs. | 29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. |

Just recieved my bare root Amur Maple 4 foot twig. I was hoping for something with multi stems. My question is will it develop new stems from the bottom on it's own or should I wait a year then cut it back to force the stems? I was also hoping for something a little more substancial but I guess It'll have to get bigger on its own. |
Follow-Up Postings:
They grow fast - they're hardy, and genetically inclined toward shrubby growth, so you'll need to prune to reduce the number of stems that sprout. Let it grow without pruning for a year, then cut it back to about an inch from the soil line. It will back-bud profusely. Rub off the buds in places you don't want new stems & go from there. They come easy from summer cuttings, too, so make more if you want. If you like, I'll take a picture of a large-trunked tree I chopped back & am just starting on as a bonsai prospect. Here are a couple of other maples - just so you know you really can do what I suggested. ;-) Al |
Thanks, I was thinking that was the way to go. I know I'll be hesitant to cut but I will next year. Love the bonsai. |

Facts about Naomi + Teddy
- Breed: Dwarf Mix
- Color: Fawn
- Age: Adult
- Size: Dwarf
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
My name is Naomi + Teddy!
Naomi + Teddy's Info...
6-20 UPDATE: Naomi & Teddy are happily bonded but the food aggressive Naomi must be carefully monitored so she doesn't be mean to Teddy. They dote on each other but Naomi, who came to rather obese, has had a long haul trying to lose weight and being bonded with another bun, a husbun, makes this more tricky although they love each other deeply.
2-14 UPDATE: Naomi is being bonded with Teddy. Check back in about ten days for an update.
Please review our shelter info and policies right here on Adopt A Pet and also on our website. Please no inquiries from minors or folks in transient situations.
Naomi is waiting to be bonded to one of the single boys here (probably Teddy but she'll require thorough introductions). She has slowly learned some social etiquette with other rabbits and also with people. She's a beautiful opal color. She has had a lot of education on how to accept affection from humans and she's finally letting her guard down a bit. She can only be paired with a confident, benevolent male who will be very patient with her nervousness.

Sienna Miller Is Crazy in Love
Contrary to recent rumors that she and her Welsh mattress pal Rhys Ifans have split, Sienna Miller gushed in her recent interview with the U.K. version of Elle about how he "makes me smile like a fool" and she's "so happy with [their] relationship as it is."
The Factory Girl star explained the lack of a ring on her finger by saying, "It's so embarrassing when these stories come out, and your relationship has been somehow fast-forwarded. We both had our mums on the phone."
As for what is true about their dynamic, she said the couple's busy schedules forced them to come up with creative ways to connect. According to Miller, "Rhys and I have this thing about 'bunking off' and taking time out. A couple of hours off is called Games. The whole afternoon is Double Games, and the full 24 hours is Sports Day. On any of those days, food is involved big time."
Just what food? "Chicken and stuffing sandwiches, milk chocolate with salt-and-vinegar [potato chips], in the mouth at the same time—you just have to try it—and French fries dipped in [a] chocolate milkshake."
Also, here's a video of Sienna during her photo shoot for the July Elle.

A couple of examples of the libraries posted on Curious Expeditions compendium of beautiful libraries. The above picture is from Hereford Cathedral Chained Library, Hereford, England. The first image is the Real Gabinete Portugues De Leitura, Rio De Janeiro, Brazil.
This is the fairytale section from the Ann Arbor District Library, Fifth Avenue. It reminds me of the book The Borrowers by Mary Norton. I hadn't read it as a child but found it after reading Lawrence Weschler's book, Vermeer in Bosnia. In it there is the transcript of a radio program with Ira Glass, called This American Life. (It also appeared in Brick magazine at some point). Weschler and his eleven year old daughter Sara talk about an exchange of letters - her dad writes tiny letters to her from the borrowers, and she believes in them. It's about a "breach of trust without meaning to." It's a very moving piece about the magic of childhood and belief and trust.
The interesting thing about the fairy tale book section in the Ann Arbor library, is that the fairy business doesn't stop there. If you follow some links you'll see that the whole town has hidden these fairy doors in plain sight all over town. It's a tourist attraction I guess, but I think it says something about the adult belief in magic too.
I thought some of my friends at the Riverbend Branch of the Edmonton Public Library where I used to work might enjoy this post...I miss you guys!

I've had trouble with moles before. Well, I still do, but a piece of garlic in their runs usually keeps them away from the garden.
Now I've got a critter of a different type, I think might be a vole. I'm hoping somebody on this forum can tell me if it is, and what to do about it. Starting in early winter of last year, I started noticing little holes in my flower beds, and plant roots eaten. They are small, round holes, usually at the edge of the bed, on the outside, or close to the house. They ate some bulbs, and the roots of two plants. They are still around, and although I'm guessing their food supply is better now, they are still making little holes and messing up areas of my beds. I have seeds to plant, and don't want them to make their homes here. Is this voles? How do I run them off? Don't have tomcat...the last one died. Maybe that's why I now have this new problem. Somebody please help!!! |
Follow-Up Postings:
It could be Voles, Field Mice. Of course the only way to know for sure is to trap one and properly identify it. |

Thanks kimmsr. I'm pretty sure that's what they are. I tried a pelleted castor oil product, but it didn't seem to work at all. As much as I don't want to, I'm going to set out a few mousetraps baited with apple slices. I'm not sure this is going to help my problem, as they breed like crazy, and will move from one location to another. Covering up their little holes doesn't help, they move on and make others. I cut back my red clover and alfalfa to "expose" them more...once again, didn't help. Thanks for your response tho!!!! |
- Posted by novice_2009 zone 6b (My Page) on Fri, May 14, 10 at 13:58
Set out mousetraps, didn't catch anything. I'm wondering if their food supply is so abundant right now they won't go for the bait, or are these guys too smart for traps? |

I hadn't planned a dessert for today's game, so I decided on oatmeal cookies. I googled "Best Oatmeal Cookie" and since I am a visual person, I went under "images." I clicked on the one that looked the best, and whose do you think it was??--yes, Ann's! So I made them and they are awesome!!! That addition of sugar on top is soooo good!! Thank you Ann for making us better cooks and bakers.

Those do look yummy. Ann, any recommendations on amounts to use to add raisins? I love oatmeal/raisin cookies. I bet white chocolate/ cranberry would be good, too. Lisa |
Lisa, I don't like raisins, but I have added both cranberries and white chocolate. I don't measure when adding dried fruit or chocolate to cookie batter. If you like a lot of raisins add more, less if you just want a few in each cookie. Start with half a cup and if that isn't enough add another half cup. |
lisa_in_germany, The Quaker Oat Oatmeal Cookie recipe calls for 1 cup of raisins, but I would compare the amount of flour/oatmeal from this recipe to Ann's to decide. |

Ok guys, i hope someone will look at this. I have a 2005 Toro 22" Self-propelled Recycler mower (Model 20005) and I was horrible about proper storage and maintenance for 3 or 4 years. I just changed the oil, spark plug, air filter, and used gum-out on the carb and the thing will start but immediately stalls. I found that if I continue to push the primer it will keep running. But as soon as I stop priming it, it stalls. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN!!!??? HELP!!! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Our Yardman did the same thing last week. The most likely cause is residue from gasoline that evaporated in the carb, over the winter. I was able to partially disassemble the carb, and clean it with spray solvent. I used LiquidWrench because that is what I had on hand. You can pick up a spray can of carb cleaner at an auto parts store. With the air cleaner off, you might be able to keep the engine going by spraying carb cleaner directly into the venturi, after starting the engine with the primer. Our mower is not quite right yet, but I was able to mow the lawn OK. I mixed some liquid carb cleaner with the gas, and I expect the carb to eventually get 100% clean, with use. |
Most likely you'll have to remove the bowl nut, under the carb's bowl. You'll most likely find varnish in the jet, or maybe water. These are some typical jets, Tecumseh. Briggs, similar. |
Baymee, You are the BOMB!!!! The first picture you included was mine. I had no idea that the "Jets" that I have seen people talking about in other posts are just holes in the Brass screw holding the bowl in place!!! I cleaned those with a bread tie wire and sprayed the hell out of it with carb cleaner and it runs like brand freaking new!!! I am so thankful for this website!!! I LOVE AL GORE for creating the Internet!!! Ha Ha! |
I joined just to say thank you for asking and posting the answer to my issue. But for those who don't know where to look for this on the 20005 TORO. It is underneath the Round part which is right in front of the paper air filter on the side. When I took mine out I saw some gunk so I wiped it and blew into it....I will be cleaning it properly but just needed to get it working asap.. Thanx Again!! |

Tip worked beautifully, saved alot of frustration and money for a new mower |
- Posted by bluesrocker22 none (My Page) on Wed, Aug 27, 14 at 19:30
All, I thought my carb was shot, so I replaced it. Still, start but no run (and had to use starting fluid). THEN!!! I noticed the spring to the "rev limiter" (just below and towards rear of carb) was not "tight". The stupid bracket that holds the end of that spring had been bent down ~1/16" and that caused all this heartache. CHECK YOUR REV LIMITER!!! |

This is a beautiful pigmented lipstick. It has no flavor but that's fine. It has a shiny finish but I like to pair it with Dallas lip gloss. It feels really light on your lips and it goes on smoothly. I feel I have to replicate this lipstick after an hour so I usually use a lip stain under it.

I LOVE THIS LIPSTICK, it is not matt and not too glossy, the colour is perfect for me and gives that sultry/elegant look and can be added to a casual outfit for a bit of glam or a glam outfit for a bit of toning down! It is not a lipstick that lasts forever but I don't mind reapplying.
This is (on me at least) a very nice MLBB colour. It doesn't really add much to my lips but just makes them look that tiny bit more polished and even. The texture of the lipstick feels a bit like a gloss or balm hybrid and it's definitely nice and moisturizing. This does, however, lead to the one major problem... there's very little staying power. It's not so bad and I still think this is a very nice lipstick, but it can be a bit frustrating how quickly it disappears from my lips (more noticable with the brighter shade of this formula that I also bought). I picked this up for half price at the local Benefit counter because the colour is apparently being cut from their lineup, which is a bit of a bummer. It's definitely a nice daily MLBB lipstick which I'd probably buy again if I could!

This is such a sexy pink lipstick, which gives your lips a lovely shine. It's very natural looking, but sophisticated, especially when worn with a smokey eye. Lips feels fantastic with this on as it's very moisturising. Happy!
I love this lipstick. It is creamy and moist going on and has a nice sheen.
The color is rosy but not bright or dull...just right for my nw20 complexion. My only complaint would be that it doesn't last long on the lips but since it does seem to stain mine, all I need is a little lip balm to revive them. I will keep buying this color since it seems to brighten my face.
LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! This is thee best lip product I have ever bought. It goes on soooo silky and moisturised, and gives a beautiful natural reddish glow to my lips. It's so hydrating, my lips are very dry and this does a wonderful job of gliding on and staying. And the packaging is lovely! Well worth £13!
I fell in love with this color. It looked like the color I've been searching for forever (MLBB). But, unfortunately when I tried it on in the store, it was just "my lips". I couldn't justify adding only a little color to my lips for $18. If it was cheaper I would have purchased though- it is sooooo comfortable and doesn't have that chokey throat taste like other lipsticks. It feels almost like lipbalm but not greasy or too thick. I'm hoping to find another color that works better, but I tried a few and the light neutrals were too light, medium shades were almost dark enough and the darker shades were too dark. I have pale skin but I guess I have more pigmented lips than I thought!
I am praying the price goes down and they come out with more colors.
Creamy, comfortable, NON-DRYING (and most of the lippies I have do dry me out) and gorgeous colour; I think this was the first lippie colour I really fell in love with.
The price and packaging are two gripes for me. It's not too expensive, but I've found other high-quality lippies for less than this price. The packaging is very cute, sturdy and nice, but a bit excessive. It's quite heavy, and since I've been known to have 6 lippies in my handbag, any excessive weight is a turn-off!
The other downside is that the colour doesn't last very long; still, I'm fine with that since it's not drying, and it leaves nicely. Despite the cons, there are enough pros to make me buy this every now and then as a treat. What tips the scale though, is that I found 2 ingredients in the product that I am trying to trim out of my lippie collection, so I won't be repurchasing unless I absolutely can't find a better coloured lipstick.
After buying this lipstick I can't imagine that I will ever need another shade ever again. It's a perfect classic rose color that it super flattering to my skin tone and it has a really light wonderful feel on my lips. It's non drying which is awesome because I hate when lipstick makes my lips crack.
I bought this lipstick today and am quite pleased. I was looking for a non-drying lipstick and matte, with a natural feel...
The color is great, a pink-reddish and very natural looking, I have always been attracted to red lipsticks but find that I can't pull it off, but this is a nice alternative. My lips are very pigmented, so the reddish color stands out on me, but is very light and natural because of the matte finish. I love it...
The texture is nice as well, very moisturising,but i do catch myself putting on lipbalm because I need to have the feel of lipbalm on my lips.
I can say that this lipstick is the most moisturising I have found, will repurchase....

The joys of his life were his three granddaughters: Dorsey Kate Hoskins, Hattie McAndrew Hoskins and Grace Elizabeth Cleveland, all of Nashville.
He graduated from Baylor in 1957. He attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he was a member of the Kappa Alpha fraternity, and the University of Tennessee at Knoxville.

What are peoples' thoughts on potential buyers taking pictures of a home when touring it? I am tempted to do it, because otherwise it's hard to keep track of various details of different houses, and sometimes the things that stand out aren't represented in the listing pictures. But it also feels inappropriate to be taking pictures inside someone else's house. If it's unoccupied, I'd feel less weird about it, but it definitely seems iffy when the peoples' stuff is everywhere. So I've held off so far. But there have already been several cases where it would be really helpful to have a photo to refer back to on a few places we looked at. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I always take digital pictures if I have any interest in a house at all. Bear in mind that these houses are listed in MLS and do have photos posted. However, MLS limits the number of photos so I will take a picture from a different angle for example. Before I have the house under contract I typically don't take that many photos -- mostly things that I want to remember that aren't in the online pics. Once I have a house under contract I will take very extensive photos (have done this for the last several houses that I bought). Basically I feel that photos of any of the public areas of the house that you can see during a showing are OK to photograph. I would not, however, open a drawer in furniture and take pictures of the sellers' stuff that is inside the drawer, for example. But taking a picture of the house itself is, I think, fine. |

I have taken photos of some houses. It was when my husband could not make a viewing appointment. And it was only if I thought the house was something we would be interested in putting an offer on. NancyLouise |
I don't think it's a problem, but don't go posting those pictures online or even in a public web album. |
I would ask first and put it just the way you put it here, that this is your private reference to aid in your decision making. I don't think most people would have a problem. |

I think if you have a house on the market, then you can expect people to take pictures and possibly publicly share them with others. I wouldn't go through someones personal furniture that is leaving the house when they move, but I do open closets and cabinets to see if they there is enough storage and to also check out the condition of the house. If people leave personal stuff laying around when they sell a house, they are asking for trouble. I wouldn't steal from them, but someone else might. I clean out and remove any medicines, financial information, valuables, etc., when I put the house on the market. By packing this stuff away in advance, I also don't have to deal with movers stealing important things either. |
You should always get permission first, and always use the photos only for your own references. There are large scale personal valuable items cannot be put away, such as fine antique furniture, collectibles items, paintings, fixtures, high end equipments and gears..Etc. It is unthinkable to take photos in someone's house without asking first, let alone sharing these photos publically. Some houses, especially higher priced ones would stay on the market for a while; you don't want to let these photos become road maps for burglars. I do believe it is buyers' and agents' responsibilities to respect sellers' privacy and safeguard their security. |
We only take pictures of empty homes. I would never take pictures of a lived-in home. I wouldn't allow it if I were a seller either. My husband took some pics of a room in a lived-in home. When we viewed the room (library/office) on the computer, he noticed there were many books on drug/alcoholism. There were photos of children and family on the shelves. Maybe someone in the family is a counselor but doubt it as there were numerous cook-books mixed in with the 'dependence' books. This was a house we were interested in and visited it 3 times. We never noticed these books or paid any attention to the photos. But when you view photos, you find things you would not have noticed. After this incident, we both agreed that photos of a home was inappropriate and should not be done. Jane |

When we were looking I always brought a camera to take pictures. We were looking at so many places we couldn't recall all the details. Some listings had very few pictures. I would take notes, but a pic is worth a thousand words. I always asked permission first. Especially if the house wasn't empty. In those cases I made sure the owner/agent were present and took care not to take shots of anything revealing or embarrassing, etc. The outside wasn't as much an issue but I followed the same line regarding privacy. No license plate numbers, etc. Now that we have finally purchased, we take pics of the outside. There is an area across the street where I like to stand so I can compare how the place looks in all 4 seasons from the same spot. Same with the back yard. We do this every other month or so. I also like to take before and after pics of contractor work. I did this when we had our basement waterproofed. Old sump pump one day, bright and shiny new one the next. Did the same thing when we had roofing work done and a chimney recapped. I asked the guy to take my camera up there and get shots from different angles since I wasn't going to go up there myself! He said it was the first time anyone asked him to do this. He was nice about it. :) Who knows? It might be useful down the road in case we need to file a claim, etc. Or, a future buyer might like to see what improvements have been done by previous owners. |
Pretty much anyone is allowed to take a photo of anything they can see from anyplace they are allowed to legally be. If people don't want pictures taken of their stuff, they can put it away to move it out of the house when selling. BTW sellers - if you think you can forbid this - good luck. Buyers will be taking pictures, opening up cabinets, testing out your furniture, opening closets and cabinets etc. If you have anything you don't want made public, get it out of the house before you start showing it. |
I basically agree with billl on this. As a seller I always assumed that a buyer might take photos. I didn't have anything in the house that I wouldn't have been OK with someone seeing. |
I took pictures of the houses that I was interested in, and I don't think it's something you need to ask permission to do. I used them primarily as an aid to memory and I also sent some of them to family members when I made offers--they wanted to see what might turn out to be my new home. I don't see a problem with it, despite what some other posters feel. It helped me make decisions after I went home and it seems a perfectly reasonable thing to do. My agent didn't bat an eye, so I'm quite sure that I was no different from her other clients. |
I believe asking permission before taking photos at someone's house, or even at any business establishment, is common sense, basic courtesy and good manner. As a buyer, we never allow us to be so casual at any seller's place regardless it is occupied or not. I did a quick search, found a few articles regarding Open House Etiquette. Photo taking is only a part of the discussions. 1. A Buyer's Guide to Open House Etiquette "Ask before you take pictures or record video. Remember, in many cases, the home is still someone's private residence so before you snap a photo or pull out the camcorder, ask permission." 2. Open house etiquette for buyers, sellers Ask permission before taking photos or videos "Homeowners, especially those with expensive homes, may get offended, or have privacy and safety concerns," says Khera. For instance, they may not appreciate if an expensive piece of art or furniture or a child is captured in a picture taken with a camera or cellphone. Ask first. 3. Attending Open Houses ...And don't be afraid to take pictures, but ask the hosting real estate agent first if it's okay. 4. A Guide to Open House Etiquette Respect the Homeowners Property Remember you are in someone's home, so be sure to respect their property. Ask permission before taking pictures or videos and remember to look, not rummage, through closets or pantries. This is someone's house, not a bargain department store, so rummaging through their personal stuff is poor etiquette. 5. Boston Real Estate Homebuyer Etiquette: Taking Pictures of Potential Homes If you're interested in purchasing Boston condos or Boston real estate, you may have had the idea of taking pictures of the prospective homes your tour. Is this a good idea? Sometimes sellers are not comfortable with having potential buyers photograph their home, especially if they are still living in it. Here are a few reasons why: 1. If the seller still lives in their home it is still full of their personal items, which they probably feel are private. 2. Sellers often worry about how photos will be used and whether or not they will be posted on the internet. 3. There is always the concern by sellers that you may be casing their home and plan to rob them. If you've been through the house selling process, you may be able to relate to these concerns. It is important that you ASK before taking pictures, even if you just want to snap a quick picture or two with your blackberry or iphone. If the seller agrees, try not to take too many. Even if he or she agreed, it doesn't mean they won't be offended if you begin taking pictures of every corner of their home. However, if a home is empty and being shown, you may want to ask the realtor showing the house. It probably won't be an issue, but it's never a bad idea to ask permission. Also, consider the fact that most Boston real estate listings online feature quite a number of photos of every room as well as the exterior. You may not even need to waste time taking your own photos if a seller's agent has already gone to the trouble of taking some nice, clear photos! Would you be comfortable allowing potential buyers to photograph your home? |
I was selling and had one buyer take video. It was the one time the house was NOT show ready because I was running late for work that day and there was no advance notice of the showing. It was the worst the house looked for any showings and they video . EEK. They bought another home a block away. |
"Would you be comfortable allowing potential buyers to photograph your home? Yes. We encouraged it. Heck, I even took some pictures for a guy who forgot his camera and emailed them to his wife. Selling a house is a business transaction. Anyone trying to make it personal is just asking for a bad experience. |
Sure I'm comfortable with buyers taking photos. I assumed that anyone seriously interested would take photos. I am actually sort of puzzled by the ask the seller before taking photos. Where I am, the seller isn't at showings and neither is the seller's agent. The buyer's agent is showing the house. In the entire time I was selling my house I certainly didn't have anyone call my agent and say they were going to show my house (or where in the process of doing it) and the buyer wanted to take pictures...I would have thought that strange. |

I find photos helpful for remembering the house, and most people are fine with it, but I had a bad experience with a nut job once. I asked permission, received permission, and then the lady wigged out. She said we had pictures of her private home. Huh? She was selling it and said it was OK, then got paranoid. She demanded our full names, addresses, and when we didn't give them because the realtor had all that info, she followed us to the car and wrote down our license plates. So I don't do it any more. My advice? Be aware of nuts. |

Take photos!!! DS had the fridge switched out, but he couldn't prove it. It was the only house they didn't bring me to see (with my camera). Momma knows best! Kathy G in MI |
"Pretty much anyone is allowed to take a photo of anything they can see from anyplace they are allowed to legally be." Houses are not public spaces. Ask first. If anyone failed to ask I would escort them out the door VERY quickly. It is private property, and the owner gets to set the rules. |
I don't, and won't, view a property with the owner present. So it's unclear to me how the logistics of asking permission is supposed to work. |
Yes We encouraged it. Heck, I even took some pictures for a guy who forgot his camera and emailed them to his wife. Selling a house is a business transaction. Anyone trying to make it personal is just asking for a bad experience. I agree with Billl, when you decide to sell, your home becomes a commodity, it is no longer your private domain. |
"It is private property, and the owner gets to set the rules. " Yep. It is private property. However, when you invite anyone onto your private property, you give up certain privacy rights. You have the right to ask them to leave, but you couldn't legally take their camera etc. You don't get to dictate behavior on your property, just access. Unless your state has specific rules about recording sound or images without permission, it is legal and should be anticipated. As a practical matter, you are never going to know if people are taking pictures of your house. You should assume that EVERYTHING visible will be inspected. If you have ANYTHING that you don't want on display, put it in storage. |
"You don't get to dictate behavior on your property, just access." No, you do get to dictate behavior on your property, and anyone that does not behave as YOU want them to can be ejected. If you want to take pictures have your RE agent ask the listing agent fro permission. Recording images is allowed in public places. The inside of a home is not a public space at any time, for sale or not. Any property owner can prohibit it from on or in their property. You can take pictures of the outside from a public space for non-commercial use. |

I took pictures, starting with a shot of the house numbers, then all through the house ... good and bad features, as well as the electric panels and any problem areas. It's the only way to keep things straight. |

Thanks to all of our customers and employees for helping to raise $1,000 in sponsorship of Adam Domino/Special Olympics! Adam once again braved the frigid temperatures for the Polar Plunge held at Sunnyvale Park. Way to go Adam! Together, we can make a difference!
The 2014 Polar Plunge – Supporting Special Olympics
Adam Domino is a Special Olympian who chooses to make a difference in our community by using his talents and tough skin! Adam has been plunging into our local Arctic waters for the past 13 years and, once again this year, Adam will be taking the plunge in Man Made Lake at Sunnyvale Park in Wausau. The plunge takes place on Saturday, February 22nd, 2014.
We are encouraging customers and local community members to stop in and donate at least $1.00 for a Polar Bear. All proceeds will go to Adam Domino and the Special Olympics Wisconsin-North Central Region. If you are unable to stop in at the bank, we are also accepting checks by mail, made payable to Special Olympics. Donations will be collected until February 20th, 2014.
Help us reach our goal of $1,000 because we're Freezin' for a Reason with Adam!
- The Polar Plunge is the largest fundraising event for Special Olympics Wisconsin-North Central Region.
- Raised funds benefit the programs, competitions and services that Special Olympics provides to more than 1,000 children and adults with intellectual disabilities in our community. Your business is making a difference in the lives of athletes right here in the Wausau area and Central Wisconsin.
- In 2013, 600 individuals took the Plunge, raising more than $115,000 for Special Olympics.
Online Shopping – Be Safe!
Most of us have shopped online without suffering negative consequences (other than maybe a larger-than-expected credit card bill!). With the holidays approaching, millions of us will be online, searching for and then buying those perfect gifts. That makes now a good time to talk about different ways that scammers try to take advantage of us, such as setting up fake websites or stealing our credit card information.
When selecting a website to purchase an item, be wary of online stores offering a price that is dramatically cheaper than anyone else. The reason they may be so cheap is because after you purchase your item, what you receive in the mail is a counterfeit or stolen item, or in some cases is simply never even shipped. Indicators of fraudulent websites include:
- There is no phone number to call for sales or support-related questions.
- The website domain name is different than the domain name it uses for email addresses or other contact information.
- The website uses poor grammar or spelling.

Home equity loan vs. home equity line of credit (HELOC)
What is the difference between the home equity loan and a home equity line of credit (HELOC)?
With a home equity loan, you will receive a lump sum up front, and then you will make regular monthly payments for a set period of time at a set interest rate, which provides a more structured loan.
With a HELOC, the rate is variable, and the monthly payment is based on the amount advanced on the line. As you repay funds borrowed against your line, they immediately become available again. You can use as much or as little as you want, which gives a HELOC more flexibility.
Basically both types of loans use your home's equity as collateral for the loan. Both extend credit to a borrower up to a predetermined amount. Both can be used for home improvements, buying a car, consolidation of debt, college tuition, or unplanned expenses. What makes them different is how they are structured. With both types of loans, the interest you pay may be tax deductible. (Consult your tax advisor for specifics on tax deductions.)
As with any loan, there is risk involved. When using your home as collateral, there is a possibility of losing your home is you were to default on your loan. Please stop in or give us a call to learn more about home loans in Wausau, Weston, Schofield, Rothschild and surrounding areas.

Theatre920 entries
The Duchess of Malfi
Opens: 17/03/2012 Closes: 09/06/2012
The Old Vic, London
The Jacobeans were fond of a little schlock horror, and John Webster's initially lovey-dovey story soon descends into wonderfully macabre and bloody territory. Olivier Award-winner Eve Best tackles the lead role as the duchess, whose marriage beneath her class has dire consequences.
For more information visit: http://www.oldvictheatre.com/the-duchess-of-malfi/ Buy: http://bookings.oldvictheatre.com/single/psDetail.aspx?psn=65Page [1]
The Arts Desk"Not exactly gripping..." He tries to sex it up – we first see the duplicitous mistress Julia as she is vigorously pleasuring the Cardinal, and Eve Best as the titular heroine makes one entrance backlit in a diaphanous shift – but mostly his touches are rather tentative..
Financial Times"Sinister and dimly lit..." 11. The emotional and psychological tone of the production meshes well with the visual aspect, but it is the feel that needs to dictate the look. Snow falls onstage for much of the second half, but this should not be a cold play...
Whatsonstage.com"An impetuous and full-hearted portrayal..." Eve Best surges across the stage, bursting at the seams of the play, and her own white shift. And Jamie Lloyd doesn't once let us off lightly...
The Stage"This magnificent revival will delight as much as shock and surprise..." The play develops as a feast of rich and supple poetry, with fantastic theatrical imagery. And finally we are left, like the Duchess, thoroughly gob-smacked, garrotted and gasping for air...
Guardian"A revival that delights in the original's language and period setting..." The chief pleasure lies in encountering a production that, for all its incense-laden atmosphere, allows Webster's aphoristic poetry to do its vital work...
The Independent"A disappointment..." Lloyd's under-energised production fails to utilise sustain any vigour, and gets off to a depressing start with a generalised masked ball where the corrupt Renaissance court shows itself off in a stately – and here rather lifeless – pavane...
Time Out"This show impresses from the off..." Lloyd's production embraces Webster's vision, faults and all, a bleakly grandiose spectacle lent tender humanity by Best's terrific turn...
The Telegraph"A superbly effective piece of theatre..." Eve Best's great achievement is that she brings a warm, glowing humanity to a play that could easily seem just one damnable thing after another...
Evening Standard"When it tries to be sexy it doesn't satisfy..." In many ways this is a traditional production, honouring its period setting. Its moments of gravity are signaled a little clumsily but the general air of portentousness is redeemed by Eve Best, who is superb...

Cat's Claw
En Español (Spanish Version)
Uncaria tomentosa, Uncaria guianensis
Principal Proposed Uses
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Various Viral Diseases: AIDS ;Feline Leukemia Virus; Genital and Oral Herpes ; Shingles (Herpes Zoster)
Other Proposed Uses
Cat's claw is an herb popular among the indigenous people of Peru, where it is used to treat cancer, diabetes, ulcers, arthritis, and infections, as well as to assist in recovery from childbirth. It is also used as a contraceptive. There are two primary species of cat's claw used medicinally: Uncaria tomentosa and Uncaria guianensis.
Cat's claw is most often marketed as a treatment for viral diseases, such as herpes, shingles, AIDS, and feline leukemia virus. However, the evidence for these uses is extremely preliminary.
The most meaningful study yet performed on cat's claw suggests that the Uncaria guianensis species might be helpful for an entirely different condition: osteoarthritis.3
In addition, one double-blind trial indicates that a certain type of Uncaria tomentosa may be modestly helpful for people with rheumatoid arthritis.5
Cat's claw has also been proposed as a treatment for allergies and stomach ulcers, but there is no meaningful evidence as yet that it is effective for these conditions.

Hello Everyone and Happy New Year from your 2014 President
I've been elected as your President once again and will work hard to keep GCFTHA of OK operating as a viable Non Profit Corporation. We were able to benefit a few therapeutic riding facilities last year through the Super Fox Trotter Competition. The event is scheduled again for this year in June and looks to be even a bigger event than last year. The first day of the show will be dedicated to Youth and Special Needs classes. We have several fun classes and the adult classes are more exhibitor friendly. If you can ride a horse you can compete in the SH.
The recent trend in the use of the MFT seems to be more for an all around horse than just a show horse. I'd like to schedule events that reflect this with emphasis on youth participation.
My short term goal as your President is to bring all MFT owners in Green Country and beyond together and do our best to schedule events in locations handy for everyone.
My long term goal is to grow GCFTHA of OK to be a self-sustaining association that truly showcases the MFT as the Best All Around Horse while benefiting charities with our event profits.
Please join me this year in the promotion of our favorite breed, The Missouri Fox Trotter. I look forward to seeing the brand new BOD on Jan. 4th at noon at Tiawah Hills Bar B Que.
Rick Gates, President, GCFTHA of OK
Happy New Year from your 2014 Vice President
Huh!!!! Friends in high places???
GCFTHA had a nice turn out for the 2013 Owasso Christmas Parade. Even though the temperatures outside was a chilly 34 degrees our GCFTHA flag stood high as 11 horses and 15 members proudly represented our association! Out of those 15 members, 7 of those were from our youth group!!! Smiles and waves were abundantly distributed!!!!
Following the parade in Owasso, we joined together for a fabulous turkey dinner at the Hutchinson residence for our annual party. The food was delicious but most importantly was the association amongst one another. Everyone had a great time and the house was filled with conversation and laughter! Door prizes, gift exchange and a raffle to benefit our youth group kept the excitement flowing.
The youth awards was the best part of the day! All of our youth have worked so hard this year that we eagerly looked forward to watching them receive their participation certificates along with their new GCFTHA Youth Jackets!
We also proudly presented the high point youth from each age division with their buckle certificates. (They will receive the buckles in January at our youth party). This years 2013 high point awards were awarded to:
CheyAnne Kirk - Senior High Point
Malorie Thompson - Youth High Point
Zachary Thompson - Jr. High Point
We are all so proud of our youth and eagerly look forward to their participation during 2014!!!
All in all we had a wonderful time this weekend at both the Owasso Parade and along with our Annual GCFTHA Party!!!

Watch: Maximum Hedrum Releases New Video "Keep In Touch"
Maximum Hedrum was only recently formed in the fall of 2012 and it is only a few months until their self-titled debut albums hits the shelves in March. They have now released a new video for their track, "Keep In Touch." Watch below.
Maximum Hedrum's album is now scheduled for a March 19th release date, contrary to what has been previously reported. "Keep In Touch" is the first single off their record, but the band has kept busy outside of the recording studio by working with electronic due N.A.S.A. (North America/South America) on the song "Overdrive."
"Keep In Touch" was co-produced by Christopher Neil and Maximum Hedrum band member, Sam Spiegel. Below, Spiegel speaks on how the idea behind the video started and what he portrays through the footage:
"The video was inspired by an article in Italian that my friend Wendy Morgan sent me about a young man with cerebral palsy and his relationship with his mom and a prostitute. The story felt closely related to 'Keep in Touch' in the sense of yearning for intimacy without the ability to express it with touch … Shooting this film was a great experience in getting to know Javier Silcook (our lead actor who has cerebral palsy) and his family who are amazing (Javier has 62 adopted brothers all with disabilities as well). I hope we were able to show some of the beautiful as well as lonely moments of living with CP."

More from IBC 2011
A couple of more things which made me 'stuck in a moment':
Camargus multicam system which covers 180 degrees angle view, 16 HD cameras can cover the whole arena. The system ingests all the cameras simultaneously and create single superwidescreen movie. It's still a prototype, but they're going to finish development till the next year.
There is nice demo reel on their website.
Another thing is the giant touchscreen overlay developed by U-Touch:
And even larger one, both screens have multitouch support:

I was hoping for Carman and Clayton peaches this year. |
I wanted Reines des Reinette apple. Bought two apples though. Excellent. Cannot wait to get them next spring. |

Oh Mrs G, Cummins and Big Horse Creek Farm often have RdR. It also goes by King of the Pippins. Big Horse Creek Farm will be putting up their annual list of fall available trees soon. Scott |
Thanks Scott, bought the Reine de Ananas and the Arborose apples from the Gnomes! This will make 9 apple trees including the Calvilles arriving in the spring. I wished pears didn't take so long to fruit or I would by the bartlett too. |
Anything especially good and rare? |
- Posted by scottfsmith 6B-7A-MD (My Page) on Mon, Sep 9, 13 at 20:44
My favorite is the Moniqui white apricot, its excellent tasting, much tastier than Sugar Pearls, and is more productive for me than all the other white apricots. Early and Late Crawford peaches are also hard to find elsewhere and are of very highest quality. They are much better than the more popular Baby Crawford. Pallas and Rio Oso Gem are also excellent quality peaches and they may be the only people selling Pallas. Oh, the plumcot called Hesse I have under the name Weinberger, it has been doing well for me and has a very unusual appearance. For me I see nothing new I will order, the Mayflower peach looks interesting but it looks more of historical interest. Scott |
Scott, no Arborose apple for you or do you already have one? That is an apple I would call new/rare, Mrs. G Can't wait till it arrives! |
- Posted by scottfsmith 6B-7A-MD (My Page) on Mon, Sep 9, 13 at 21:05
I haven't had great luck with California apples so I wasn't looking at the apples. That one does sound interesting though. Scott |
- Posted by franktank232 z5 WI (My Page) on Mon, Sep 9, 13 at 22:02
Scott- Any reviews of "Hesse" plumcot? Looks interesting. |
- Posted by scottfsmith 6B-7A-MD (My Page) on Tue, Sep 10, 13 at 9:43
I reviewed Hesse/Weinberger in my apricot review. It only fruited one year but its a high quality apricot and it grew well in my climate, something most California cots don't do. The flesh is strikingly orange against the purple skin, a real beauty. Its on the tart side for an apricot, something it gets from the plum side I assume; I liked the balance. Scott |
It's nice to see the enthusiasm here, but isn't Arboreum cashing in on all the hype. A small order can be twice the price of what it was just two years ago. And as far as I can tell, there's no guarantee that Arboreum is actually growing these trees - when they run out of their stock, when they can(not for the very rare ones of course), I would guess they may sell other nurseries' trees under their name. |
Creekweb, What makes you say " I would guess they may sell other nurseries' trees under their name."? I think they are cashing in on a good, well grown product. I think you need to read a bit about the backgrounds of the owners. Mrs. G |
- Posted by scottfsmith 6B-7A-MD (My Page) on Tue, Sep 10, 13 at 17:12
I'm sure they are not selling others' trees. They show the quantity they have on their website in fact. And things often sell out. I agree the prices on some things are high, but there is no other source for nearly everything they sell. I certainly don't buy anything from them that I could buy elsewhere, its not worth the $$. In fact most of the things they sell which I have I grafted from scionwood, MUCH cheaper! Scott |
I agree Scott. Arboreum has unusual varieties and good quality stock. I've ordered from them a few times and may again sometime in the future. Just now I was going to order an Imperial Epineuse plum. I saw that it was expensive at $32. I figured with shipping it would be close to 50 bucks. I am very rarely willing to spend that much for a tree, but I didn't see any other nursery is selling it this year, so I decided to bite the bullet. Anyway I went to check out on their Website and the shipping for one tree was going to be $56. The total bill for one tree was going to be 88 bucks! Didn't complete the order - way too much money. Arboreum is kinda "out there" on their tree prices. The trees from Adams I ordered this summer were $13/tree including royalties. I ordered 5 trees today from Fruit Tree Farm (i.e. Cumberland Valley Nursery). The price was $67.50 including shipping ($13.50/tree). Like I said, I do appreciate Arboreum's unusual offerings, but there was some major sticker shock when I went to check out. |

Looks like I waited too long on Hesse/Weinberger. All gone! |
- Posted by franktank232 z5 WI (My Page) on Wed, Sep 11, 13 at 9:00
Scott- That sounds very nice. One problem I have with apricots is that they are too sweet. |
I'm not so much judging Arboreum for their steep price increase, just calling them on it. The hype is all about who the owners are as well as their flowery, over the top, California chic marketing of the individual varieties. They do a good job relating to just the market that would pay a premium price for a bare root tree. Now that said, I believe the initial outlay for a tree, even at these inflated prices, in a small operation like a home orchard will end up being a small part of the total cost of raising the tree and shouldn't be so determinant with regard to its purchase, especially for a rare, sought after variety. My guess about their selling other's trees is just that, a guess. I bring it up mostly as a suggestion to those contemplating buying that $100 bare root tree with visions of little gnomes nurturing the tree along to ask the owners whether Arboreum actually grows all the trees they sell. There are a number of their offerings which can be purchased elsewhere, and so these trees could be made available to Arboreum to sell from their site. It occurs to me that the same business sense that would jack up prices as they have might also see the profit to be gained in selling others' trees. I remember some time ago they would sell out just about everything within a couple of days of posting their varieties. The trees and roots were quite substantial at that time. My last purchase was two years ago. The quality of the stock was much less impressive, and I suspected at the time that they may have been farmed out. Also, they didn't sell out right away as they had previously, suggesting a larger supply. Of course this could just be a quality control issue and increased plantings, but if I were to consider buying more trees from them, I would inquire to clarify the issue. |

Creekweb, complaining really won't help a thing. I think you need to shop elsewhere. We can all read and make decisions. Mrs. G |
MrsG, I agree, he should shop elsewhere. I bought a few trees from Bay Laurel and I do know they were grown elsewhere. Namely Dave Wilson Nurseries. Which is a wholesale nursery. Do I care? No not at all. Where the trees were grown is a non-issue. I have seen all nurseries have increased prices. Hey the dollar isn't worth anything. And 100 bucks is a lot, but so is 25 years of fruit. Seems like an excellent deal to me. Nothing is perfect Bay Laurel has very decent prices, and a huge selection. I don't like the fact they trim roots rather severely. But the trees grew as well as the ones with no trimmed roots, so it appears it made no difference at all. |
- Posted by franktank232 z5 WI (My Page) on Wed, Sep 11, 13 at 10:59
Someone on here needs to open a nursery and sell these rare trees for like $10/pop+ shipping :) plus have available several rootstocks for each variety :) Yes...that shipping charge is horribly expensive. I've sold a few things on ebay and have shipped back several larger items in the past, and shipping charges are not that bad, even for heavier items (i've always used USPS). |
- Posted by milehighgirl CO USDA 5B/Sunset 2B (My Page) on Wed, Sep 11, 13 at 12:41
franktank232, If someone here did that then they would no longer be allowed to post here. Shipping can be quite costly, especially for an oversized package, which most trees would require. |
- Posted by franktank232 z5 WI (My Page) on Wed, Sep 11, 13 at 13:22
Depends on how short the trees are. I paid $8.10 to ship back a bike shock (tapered head tubes!)... which weighed a few pounds and was a 37 inch long box. But yes...too long of a box, and you can't use certain forms of shipment. I have no idea what UPS/FEDEX charge. I could grow a tree for almost nothing, given i have the budwood. |
The shipping is the puzzling part to me too. Generally it runs about 20-25 dollars for a box of trees from west coast states. I noticed Arboreum uses Fedex instead of UPS, so perhaps that has something to do with it. I'm glad Arboreum is in business. I've ordered from them 2 or 3 times before and every time it was a variety very unusual. I always enjoy scanning their online catalog for their new offerings when it comes out , so thanks Mrs. G for the heads up. I ended up ordering the Imperial Epineuse from Sanhedrin yesterday. The tree was 25 bucks and the shipping was another $25, so it was $50 total. Still a lot to spend on a tree. |
- Posted by windfall_rob vt4 (My Page) on Wed, Sep 11, 13 at 17:34
My problem is once I know I am paying the shipping for something I want (from anyone) I feel I have to get a couple more trees just to justify it....it always feels like the second tree is half price. |
Thanks Olpea! I wish I had room for in Imperial Epineuse. Would love that tree. And, Windfall, I too feel that if I order one extra tree it justifies the shipping. So I ordered two from Arboreum. I have had good luck with most of my shipping and the boxes in which the trees arrive. Arboreum's trees have large and substantial roots. The roots need good packing and attention which they get. FedEx has a different price structure. |

I like this even more than cleanser I, it is a better strength for my skin. I think it is becoming a holy grail cleanser, especially cause it keeps skin clear, doesn't contain harsh detergents, doens't have fragrance, and mildly exfoliates.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I used I & II cleanser and currently use III (30%)These are the only products combined w/ the lotions(also moved up to III on this) that have COMPLETELY cleared up all acne breakouts for me. I've gone to a dermatologist since I was in high school for acne/ cysts(now 38) and have not had one cyst in 3 years!Cannot more highly praise this product. Does cause a bit of redness, but I will certainly trade redness for perfectly smooth skin any day!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I received a full sized bottle of this with my TNS Recovery Complex. If your skin is even slightly tolerant, there's no reason to start with the level one. I use a quarter sized amount at the end of the day and leave it on for about five minutes. Then I remove it with a warm wash cloth. Sometimes I'll apply it twice (after towel drying in between applications) and leave it on longer the second time almost like a mask. I love this MD Forte product. No problems for my sensitive skin and it seems to work well with other product lines.
Update: I've moved up to the MD Forte III cleanser and I can honestly say that I'll use this product forever! I've never used a cleanser that actually "did something". My skin is even toned an completely smooth and clear.
3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is just as gentle as Facial Cleanser I, except it's more effective. This contains 20% Glycolic acid compound. The texture is almost identical to Cetaphil's. A must have!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is my HG clenaser for the last 4 years. I have always suffered from moderate acne as a teenager. It went away for a while, but when I had my daughter 4 years ago, I suffered from hormonal adult acne. NOTHING worked until my dermatologist recommended the MD forte line to me. Within 1 week, my skin was getting clearer. Now I hardly suffer from acne. The cleanser doesn't dry out my skin or leave it greasy. It leaves it perfect. I alternate thiw with philosphy real purity. I have been using real purity in the morning and md forte in the evening. However, I may be continuing my usage of this to twice daily again as I am noticing breakouts again.
I have been using md forte for almost 2 years. I thought It was working for my acne prone skin until I went for my first facial and the technician told me that i was killing my skin with using such harsh products. I have constant redness on my cheeks and just thought it was in my genes until she asked me when the redness showed up and to my surprise, the redness appeared after I started using the MDII. I stopped using it for a week and My skin is calmer. I will still use this when I feel I need a kick of exfoliation 1-2x/mo. I just ordered the Mir line and can't wait to try it.
Best facial cleanser I've had so far. Using it on DRY skin is key!! I used to put it on damped face, had this residue feeling and didn't see much exfoliation at all after rinsing. It's amazing how applying on dry face makes a big difference. Now my face feel smooth and clean every time after I use it. (I have combination skin, a bit dry in winter.)
4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Great cleanser - it doesn't leave my combo skin either dry/taut-feeling or borderline greasy, but clean, hydrated and soft. Despite its relatively high glycolic percentage, it doesn't sting badly (I like to leave it on for a few minutes, and use it during the evening), and exfoliates nicely. I think it might even contribute to the much sought-after 'glow', and it's reasonably priced for the amount you get.
Love this cleanser. I used Level I for four months before moving up.
It works well. Simple, clean, refreshing and keeps my skin well exfoliated.
