7 Awesome Movie Moments for Grammar Nerds
Movie News By Monika Bartyzel on August 14, 2014 | Be the First To CommentMovies almost always start with a collection of words and thoughts crafted into narratives, yet cinema rarely revels in this beauty. Sure, now and then we'll get a great bit of rapid-fire banter, or attractive people having long discussions as they journey through European cities, but rarely are there bouts of real word nerdery – moments when characters actually talk about wordcraft, delight in proper use of the word myriad, and correct each other's language faux pas. Even films about writers and writing diverge from the actual act. A writer might type furiously on a typewriter, or quote a compelling author, but their stories are generally about something else. It's the melodrama, scandal and eroticism the filmmaker always captures, not the craft. But when a film does dip into grammar and wordiness, the results are often the best mix of nerd indulgence and education – moments that speak to grammatical frustration while correcting common errors through the rush of entertainment. If Weird Al piqued your interest, you should check out this movies.
If people really pay attention to directors, a lot of them found out who Shane Black is this weekend. Iron Man 3, his second best film as a director, sees him transitioning to a phase that he's lived in before as a screenwriter. He found success in his twenties after acting in Predator and selling his script for Lethal Weapon, following-up with even more stories about kidnapping and Christmas. He's brash, great with a comeback, and known for inserting fourth wall-breaking jabs into his scene descriptions, but he's also been on both sides of the studio coin. That's given him a front row seat for great success, backlash, a re-emergence that didn't strike it big, and now another resurrection. It was clear before that he had talent, and now he's got wisdom. So here's a bit of free film school (for fans and filmmakers alike) from a man who knows what you find when you look up "idiot" in the dictionary.
15 Great Movie Cameos Brought to Us By Nepotism
Cinematic Listology By David Christopher Bell on February 14, 2013 | Comments (2)Being on a movie set can be a blast – especially when you don't have to do anything. It's not hard to imagine that with every great actor or director there's probably a nagging cousin or sibling who wants to be part of that sweet sitting around action. And how the hell are they going to say no? Giving mom a line is a small price to pay for 18 years of guaranteed food and shelter, right? How can an actor resist sticking their kid in a shot or two? It happens a lot – so much so that the following 15 are only the tip of the iceberg.
15 Non-Festive Films That Are Technically Holiday Movies
Cinematic Listology By David Christopher Bell on December 20, 2012 | Comments (2)If you're anything like me, the same five holiday movies that run every year just aren't enough to quench that festive thirst so deeply embossed on your very soul. You need more than that. If you are like me, you deserve more than that. You are also not wearing any pants. The general rule for holiday films is that they must at least take place around the season, right? And so, if we simply twist that logic to say that "takes place during the holidays = holiday movie", then there's a lot of fun to be had the next time mom and dad come caroling. Just go right ahead and pop in one of the following…
38 Things We Learned From the 'Kiss Kiss Bang Bang' Commentary
Commentary Commentary By Jeremy Kirk on May 3, 2012 | Comments (3)The Avengers hits theaters this Friday, but we're looking to the future. The not-too-distant future but further out than this coming Friday. May 3, 2013, to be precise, when Iron Man 3 hits. Naturally, it stars Robert Downey Jr., still the comeback kid whose A-list status may as well be written in Adamantium. But it's also being written and directed by Shane Black, the amazing screenwriter who brought us Lethal Weapon, The Monster Squad, The Last Boyscout, and this week's film on Commentary Commentary, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. It was Black's debut as a director, and it's arguably his best piece of work in 25 years. This week we're listening to what Black and Downey Jr. have to say about this "indie" action/comedy. Val Kilmer joins the commentary party, too, because any party with Kilmer is better than any party without him. He just loves to drop names, as is indicated by this very bit of audio. With these three in the room together, talking about this very entertaining film, you know a healthy dose of fun is about to be had. So here you have it. All 38 things we learned listening to the commentary for Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.
10 Great Stories Told Within Movies
Cinematic Listology By David Christopher Bell on February 16, 2012 | Comments (7)While you'll see that I'm giving myself a lot of leeway in the following list (one of the ten isn't even technically a film), the general idea is that the list that follows singles out films that go beyond simple narration, but rather identify themselves as stories being told either in the universe or even at times outside of the universe. Narration to a film is like a frame to a painting, and while all frames hold their painting in place, there are some that do it with a little more style than others. These are some of my favorites.
Interview: Michelle Monaghan Talks 'Machine Gun Preacher,' Her Journalism Background, and Shane Black's Cleverness
Features By Jack Giroux on September 29, 2011 | Comments (1)Marc Forster's Machine Gun Preacher is a humanistic picture. Despite the atrocities conveyed in the film and the fact that the story focuses on an actual anti-hero, the director managed to end on a hopeful note. Some call it dopey, I say humanist. Even with the upbeat nature of the film, there's a slightly dark moral dichotomy; should a former junkie and criminal, Sam Childers, be the one leading a freedom brigade? Are his methods necessary or justifiable? Sam Childers isn't the only character with his own moral conundrum, as one is also a part of Lynn Childers, played by Michelle Monaghan. This is the second time I've interviewed Monaghan, and like the first time, she reminded me of that popular girl in high school who was cool with everybody. Some actors look like they're two seconds away from killing themselves during junkets, but Monaghan comes off like she couldn't be more pleased to be discussing her work — with a guy like me interviewing her, I'm not sure how she does it. Here's what Michelle Monaghan had to say about the ending of Source Code, the moral dichotomies of Machine Gun Preacher, when journalism and acting collide, passion projects, and the greatness of Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.
A petty criminal (Robert Downey Jr.) in NYC stumbles into a film audition while on the run from some cops and earns himself a trip out to LA and a chance to star in a Hollywood production. Once there the studio hooks him up with a gay P.I. (Val Kilmer) for detective lessons, and soon this unlikely pair are knee-deep in a twisted tale of murder, mystery, and mistaken identity.

Gibson Might be a 'Cold Warrior' for Shane Black
Casting Couch By Scott Beggs on January 28, 2010 | Comments (3)A spy movie might see the pair reunited after all these years. And this time, Gibson is the one getting too old for this shit.
Too often we bicker and argue about what sequels should never have been made – and there are a lot of them. Now, we'd like to take a look at a few sequels that actually should be made but, for some reason, haven't been.
Shane Black Moves Past Lethal Weapon 5 to Cold Warrior
In Development By Neil Miller on September 23, 2008 | Comments (4)The last time we checked, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang director Shane Black was talking about a fifth installment to the Lethal Weapon franchise. But according to a report from Variety this morning, it appears that more Weapon will be put on hold in favor of Cold Warrior.

You can make the argument that putting a titan of business at the head of a government is a risky proposition, with all the opportunities for cronyism and undue influence that person would have at his disposal.
Or you could make the argument that an extremely wealthy individual is a good choice for a position of political power because he could hardly be bought off by interest groups whose resources pale in comparison to his own. And that someone who rose to the very top of the private sector would do well in the public sector too.
In 2001 the voters of New York City were faced with all these possibilities as billionaire political newcomer Michael Rubens Bloomberg threw his hat in the ring for mayor. A majority gave him a shot, some no doubt thinking that if nothing else, his wealth would make him essentially uncorruptible.
And it seems that it did. While we don't agree with everything Bloomberg did as mayor — and recognize that without a doubt he often put the little guy at the bottom of his priority list — we believe he generally ran a tight ship and always pursued what he believed to be the public's best interests.
We've detailed our thoughts on his record on crime, education, business, health and the environment in this space over the last month. When it comes to the government itself, we'd say his top accomplishment over 12 years was in keeping it largely free of scandal — at least free of the kind of traditional corruption that marred so many prior administrations, as well as the City Council and the state Legislature.
The biggest financial scandal of the Bloomberg administration was the CityTime debacle, in which contractors ripped off the taxpayers for hundreds of millions of dollars. The administration came up short on oversight, but it was not Bloomberg or any mayoral appointee stuffing his pockets. And in the end, the main contractor, SAIC, was forced to pay back the money, and a stiff penalty on top of that.
The biggest cost of government is personnel, and in that area the mayor leaves a mixed, but overall positive legacy. He reduced the workforce by 5 percent, from 311,804 full-time equivalents when he took office to 296,436 now, not an easy task in an era of growing governmental responsibilities. And he did it with a scalpel, not a cleaver.
His biggest managerial failing, however, is also in personnel — his leaving office without a single contract in place for any of the city unions. In his first term, Bloomberg gave away too much in contract deals as he sought union support for his second term. But not reaching any agreements at all is a far too large swing of the pendulum the other way.
Even with that flaw in his governance, we're certain history will rate Bloomberg highly. He assumed office at a time of crisis, as the city struggled to recover from the Sept. 11 attacks, and saw it through another crisis, the Great Recession, only to be hit with yet another one, Hurricane Sandy.
The recoveries from the recession and the storm continue. But even as they do, the city continues to draw tens of millions of tourists and the money they spend every year. It continues to draw people from all over the country and the world who want to live here. It continues to build, to grow and reinvent itself. It couldn't do all that if it weren't as clean, prosperous and safe as it's been under Bloomberg.
Our newest ex-mayor did a great job in office. We look forward to his still making the world a better place through his philanthropy and hope he'll still support institutions that have benefited from his largesse, such as the Queens Museum and so many others. We also wish his successor, new Mayor de Blasio, all the best. He's got quite an act to follow.

- " It's my second time here, and I found that the hostel went down. The staff is friendly and all, but the hostel needs major improvement: a more secure front door, more keys for the guests, a cleaner/bigger fridge (it stank I-don't-know-what) and better vents. My room had a little space heater that made the room unbearably hot "
- 14 Jan 2015 Pierre-Guy Canada
- " Very good price for this hostel i expexted much less for this price !! However, it would be good to imagine a better way to get in the hostel late in the night (have a 24h staff or get proper keys to go in and out whenever we want). "
- 27 Dec 2014 Anonymous France
- " One of the nicest hostles I have ever been to. Very nice management, clean and pleasent. A little bit of noise from the club next door but it didn't bother me. "
- 26 Dec 2014 Anonymous Israel
- " I've stayed in hostels before, but my experience with Capital Comfort Hostel left a disgusting taste in my mouth. We reserved a private room in September for a four-night stay in November. The day we were supposed to check in, we showed up only to find out that they had double booked us. After being there for over an hour, we found a hotel on priceline, got our refund, and left. Best decision I ever made. They did not offer us any alternative housing arrangements. "
- 15 Nov 2014 Anonymous USA
- " The owners overbooked and then had no idea who was where leaving multiple people sleeping on the floor while beds went empty for the night. The location is good as it is located very near the convention center and a metro station. "
- 15 Nov 2014 Ryan USA
- " One of the beds didnt have a mattress. There were stains on the sheets "
- 11 Nov 2014 Mauricio Italy
- " C/C hostel is a wounderful and very reasonable place to live in washing dc the staff were very helpful gentle and caring the Capital Comfort is not hostel its home l would recomand everyone to stay at C/C hostel when ever they need accommodation in Washington dc "
- 09 Nov 2014 mohsin Pakistan
- " This place was horrid. Bad location, I had to sleep in an open area because the other people staying in the room I was meant to be in had locked it from the inside and the owner couldn't open the door. The club next door is loud, and the neighbourhood isn't great. Would not ever recommend, pay a bit more for another hostel. "
- 24 Oct 2014 Perri Australia
- " It was basically the shittiest hostel I stay in. Club right next to it, so you cant sleep. No breakfast, no separate toilets or showers for m/w. Location is good though, close to the metro... "
- 10 Oct 2014 Thiemo Germany
- " I know that most of you looking at this review will likely not care how bad I review this hostel because you're probably more concerned with the cost and will rationalize this post as a disgruntled guest. I implore you to spend the extra couple of dollars to stay somewhere else. This was the most cramped, unclean place I've ever seen people call housing. The location is dangerous and no where near amenities. The website is perhaps the very opposite of the actual hostel in every single way. "

I would like to replace our 40 gal hot water heater with a tankless on demand water heater. Presently there is a main breaker in the panel of 80 amps. I need to replace my existing 30 amp hot water heater breaker with one that is 60 amp to handle the load from the tankless heater. ( of course I will wire with 6-2 AWG as called for.) I don't think the 80 amp breaker will handle this. I wonder if I replaced it with a 100 amp breaker will this handle the load. Are there any considerations to this thought. We live in a trailer home and the electricity comes to us underground from a electric meter that is mounted with three other meters. Electric goes from pole underground to meter then to us. I looked at a small panel under the meter and it has a 70amp breaker. I have I forgotten any info? |

There is NO WAY you can make this work. You have a 70A feeder and you need a 125A breaker for the water heater alone. I think this question is self answering. A whole house insta-hot is not something anyone is going to put in a trailer without MAJOR rewiring of the service. |
You definitely can't just randomly replace the 80A breaker with a larger one. Even if you did, you'd be limited by the 70A breaker outside... Don't even think about replacing that. |
Many people run into this kind of problem when considering an on-demand water heater. The service is often not big enough for gas or electric. Have you done the calculations to show the costs for simply replacing the tank and buying the tankless? It might not pay off over the equipment lifetime even if you did not have to do major service upgrades. Doing the calculations might make you feel better. If you are in a hot climate, a heat pump water heater might make sense. |

"These were very good and I am pretty amazed at the ingredient list. I will say I have to agree with some people in that they are very sweet and grainy in texture. But they satisfy that sugar fix when you don't feel like pulling out 8 different ingredients. I will definitely make them again, trying with less sugar this time around."

The gym filled with seventh- and eighth-graders at Will James Middle School was on its feet cheering for Hunter Jones as he was presented with his national Veterans of Foreign Wars teacher of the year award in Billings.
"This is a greater honor than I could ever hope to have," the eighth-grade history teacher said on Thursday.
Jones won the award because he and his students have been sending letters and care packages to active duty soldiers since 2002.
It all started when he heard that a former student's husband was deploying to Afghanistan.
"Once I have had a student in my class, I feel partly responsible for them," he said.
That enthusiasm is passed along to his students.
"He gets us to write letters to soldiers. I think that's kind and good of him," said 14-year-old Morgan Monette.
"He does a lot of things for the troops and gets kids involved," said Deanna Avent, president of the ladies auxiliary VFW post 1634 in Billings.
"His name comes up more than any other teacher when any veteran talks about teachers in Billings," Avent said. "I have always been impressed with the level of work he does."
His classroom currently sends letters and care packages to 28 active duty soldiers in Afghanistan, Germany and Africa. His class has sent more than 5,000 care packages and 10,000 letters.
Jones says that he tries to impress on his students that not a single portion of United States history could have happened without veterans.
"I hope I can get my kids to understand where they got their freedom from," he said.
Jones found out that he had won the award earlier this year when the national VFW organization president called him during class.
The award included an all-expenses-paid trip to Washington, D.C., for the VFW National Community Service Conference, where he presented a workshop.
"It was one of the best experiences of my life," he said.
He was also awarded a $1,000 prize which he said will go into the account he uses to send care packages to soldiers.
The students gave him another standing ovation for good measure after his speech was over.
"Mr. Jones is awesome," said Raven Goodman, 13, and her fellow students agreed.

Sandy Hook School 'Preconstruction Services' Detailed In Proposal
Thursday, June 13, 2013According to Newtown officials close to the project, many of Connecticut's larger communities have personnel in-house who can handle the necessary preparation for a major construction job like the one ramping up for the new Sandy Hook School.
Public Building Chair Ready For Sandy Hook School Project
Wednesday, May 15, 2013Now that the Sandy Hook School Building Task Force has made its recommendation to construct a new facility on the site of the existing school, Public Building and Site Commission Chairman Robert Mitchell believes he can put himself in the place of many of the task force members as they struggled toward their goal.
"A part of me wished they could put off the decision another year," he told The Bee this week, just days after the task force completed its nearly eight-week process. "But we really can't wait."

Luxury safaris in The Okavango Delta
The Iconic Botswana Safari
There's something quite magical about the Delta, with its amazing sunsets, the sound of the frogs at night, and the elephants wading through the reeds, all combining to make an unforgettable stay.
One of nature's great spectacles, the flooding of the Delta, brings water from thousands of miles upstream on the Okavango river, arriving into Botswana in the dry season. Huge herds of animals flock to take advantage of the ready supply of water and nutrients, and their predators follow.
What's more, they've had the good sense to allow just a few camps in the Delta, meaning you're unlikely to see others during your game drives, adding to the feeling of a true wilderness.
The Okavango Delta is celebrated for its water safari activities. From zooming through the waterways on a powerboat to drifting along in a mokoro, your guide will reveal the secrets of the Delta, while you enjoy seeing tiny frogs and beautiful birdlife, from the lilac breasted roller to the larger waterbirds such as herons, storks and if you're lucky, the Pel's Fishing owl.

Hi, I just recently got rid of my moss, aerated and seeded my lawn back on 4/20 of this year. When I seeded, I fertilized with Scotts Starter. I followed up with another application of Starter Fertilizer 5/20 and for the most part my lawn looks beautiful. I have mowed it twice already and I still have some thin areas that I will seed again in the fall. However, I still have some little guys around 1-2" that havent fully grown yet. I was told be the guy at my local Agway that I should use starter fertilizer ever 4-6 weeks to enhance the roots of the new grass and to give a lift to the little 1-2" blades still sprouting. I just wanted to confirm here weather or not thats a good idea, as most others tell me I should follow up with straight turf builder. I want this new grass to root up before the heat comes so it can survive. Being on a well, its tough to water with extreme heat/drought conditions as I dont want to run my well dry. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks. |

That is a rather hard question to answer. It certainly isn't a yes or no. Grasses need phosphorous for cell growth (including roots), DNA and RNA and for the photosynthesis/carbohydrate production process. Grasses use potassium for cell wall turgor, important in roots for water retention and better heat and cold temperature hardiness. Nitrogen is important for photosynthesis and growth. Most soils have sufficient amounts of P and K to maintain an established turf at a level acceptable to many. Applying NPK to a new GROWING lawn floods the soil making the nutrients readily available to the grass. This is important and advantageous in the establishment of a healthy thick lawn. Applying excessive amounts of K can result in over-thickening of cell walls. Excessive N can result in susceptibility to disease. and Excessive amounts of N and P will result in their leaching resulting in water contamination and environmental issues. Especially important for your well. Rather than one large application, it is better to spoon feed the nutrients by making partial applications every couple of weeks. This makes the NPK available to the new grass while reducing the amount available for leaching. If that is not enough to consider, as your concern is the roots, root growth slows at when ST reaches 65F and eventually halts at 77F (mid June for many parts of the country), So P &K applications will serve no purpose once those soil temps reach 70 F. Advice: Do a half app or less now of the starter or a triple NPK (10-10-10- or 12-12-12) then use an organic fertilizer until the end of summer. Good luck. Edit: I assumed you seeded a cool season grass. Yes? |

Thanks for the reply, and yes cool season Scott's sun&shade mix. I was thinking of trying melogranite (sp?) Next as it's organic and would be better for the well. Was thinking at the 8 week mark. Like mid July. |
- Posted by gastonglock none (My Page) on Sat, May 31, 14 at 8:45
Also, well is over 250' deep to the aquifer. Asked many of my neighbors up here who have fertilized for years without contamination issues. If this helps at all. |
Many of the people that say "switch to Turf Builder" are people only paying attention to what they can see. Encouraging blade growth over root growth, and shallow/frequent watering is the biggest reason for burn-out in Summer, and burn-out in Summer equates to lawn failure in brand-new lawns. Stay the course and sacrifice a bit of top growth now as insurance that the lawn will survive summer. |
- Posted by yardtractor1 10 (My Page) on Sat, May 31, 14 at 12:05
It appears you are mowing high which has a two-fold advantage for you. 1. Taller top-growth corresponds to deeper rooting and 2. Taller grass shades the soil and helps the soil and neighboring blades retain moisture. Grass clippings are a 4-1-2 fertilizer and contain 50-85% water. So mulch mowing has significant advantages. I can't think of any reason to wait that long to put down an organic fertilizer. Organics are slow release (Milorganite is now 70% WIN). Once the necessary environmental conditions exist, It can take 3-4 weeks of micro-organism activity for them to release nutrients. The sooner you apply, the sooner you build up the soil biology necessary for their efficient decomposition. |

I'm mowing at 4". I was told the same things you mention. So, you guys think I'd be better off doing the organic now? |
- Posted by yardtractor1 10 (My Page) on Sat, May 31, 14 at 15:18
First, a big thumbs up on the watering advice. That is going to have the most substantial influence on deep rooting. Based on my previously stated rational, I think there is still benefit to be had by continuing spoon feeding some P&K to the young grass through June. (btw I meant to say mid July as the time soil temps in some locals can reach the 70sF). I'm going to defer to others (including andy10917 and dchall) regarding adding organics to the mix or waiting. My opinion is to start incorporating it now in partial apps until you are doing full apps in July and August. |
- Posted by dchall_san_antonio 8 San Antonio (My Page) on Sat, May 31, 14 at 23:03
I would switch to organics now because you really can't use chemical fertilizers on any northern lawn in the heat of summer. And this is new grass! And for the rest of your summer (life) I would continue with the organics, mowing high, and deep watering when you do water. |

The Profound Goofiness of Brendan Fraser
Features By Scott Beggs on February 21, 2013 | Be the First To CommentIf there's a single moment that can let us 90% know Brendan Fraser, it's one where he's in the middle of a poignant discourse on professionally becoming another person in order to help share a story with the world when the cartoon sproing-sproing ringtone of his phone cuts through. The fact that it's his children needing to be picked up from school on the other end probably brings us close to the last ten percent. "Hey, I got kids, and don't tell anyone, but I still feel like one," Fraser tells me, pinning the tail on a question about the sideways decisions of his career, the latest of which to see theaters is Stand Off . In the film from Terry George, Fraser plays Joe Maguire, a man who escapes a bad home situation by going to Belfast and running an antique store that eventually becomes the epicenter of the action promised in the movie's title (a title that used to be Whole Lotta Sole). Maguire is a fish out of water trying to understand a deep, troubled Irish history in a lighthearted action dramedy from the director of Hotel Rwanda. Yes, your intuition is correct. This role is another delightful head-scratcher from an actor who has already been all over the map.
Tribeca 2012 Rounds Out Feature Lineup with 'Take This Waltz,' 'Headshot,' 'Lola Versus,' and More
Film Festivals By Kate Erbland on March 8, 2012 | Be the First To CommentEarlier this week, our own Cole Abaius announced the first wave of this year's Tribeca Film Festival's film lineup. That assault was impressive enough, complete with lots of compelling picks in the World Narrative Feature Competition, World Documentary Feature Competition , and Viewpoints sections, but today's release of the final feature film sections is a whole other volley of firepower. With today's announcement of their Spotlight, Cinemania, Special Screenings, and the 2012 Tribeca/ESPN Sports Film Festival, the fest has completed their feature announcements – and made me start to wonder if I should try to hit Gotham for the festival, running April 18 – 29. Picks that stand out to me already include the delightful 2 Days in New York, Chicken With Plums, Don't Stop Believin': Everyman's Journey, The Giant Mechanical Man, Headshot, Lola Versus, Take This Waltz, Your Sister's Sister, and Sleepless Night. Check out the full list of films (along with Tribeca-provided synopses) after the break.

I purchased this thinking it would be similar in consistency to the Vitamin E Moisture Cream, which I love. Sadly, this is nothing like it at all. It's very thick and doesn't sink in quickly. It also leaves a greasy/shiny film which doesn't go away over the course of the day. The fragrance is very strong for a facial moisturizer -- the same exact scent as the Vitamin E Body Butter (a rose-ish baby powder scent). I agree with a previous reviewer that the price ($19 USD) is way too high for a daily moisturizer. I love the Vitamin E line in general but to me, this moisturizer isn't up to par with the other products from this line. Overall, it's an okay moisturizer. Nothing special. I prefer the Vitamin C Moisturizer for day use, as it's SPF 30.

After much trial and error- the gals at TBS suggested this line. I tried the Vit C, seaweed and nutriganics. Nutriganics was ok but the others broke me out. this is nice and light... absorbs quickly and my skin has taken well to it. I wish the fragrance wasn't so powerful though. Kinda overwhelming at first, but does fade fast.
All in all, I like it, but don't love it. Will continue to use until I can find something else.

I first picked this up in the winter, since I suffer from combination skin (but the dry bits get REALLY dry in winter). It left my skin feeling so smooth and dewy without being oily looking and I was in love. I thought this was my new forever moisturizer.
Then summer happened. When the temperatures started to rise and I was sweating a lot, I found this moisturizer is just too thick for use when it's hot. My skin looked oily and I started breaking out a lot.
Once I switched moisturizers, my complexion went back to normal, so I know it was this moisturizer that made me break out.
I DO recommend it for the winter, or to anyone who suffers from dry skin year round, but for oily skinned or combination women it is not a good choice when the weather gets warm.
I will buy it again once the weather turns dry and cold.

i brought the vitamin e cream with spf15 as i had been using Clarins for about 9 years and it had just stopped working was getting loads of breakouts and scars from picking. Also wanted to try using drug store brands.
I thought the spf 15 and vitamin e would help with healing and stop pigmentation occurring.
The cream absorbs too quickly and leaves me feeling really matte and thye vitamin e hasn;t helped scars at all.
Packaging is good and hygienic but i won't be buying again, i don't feel two bad because it was about £9.
During the mission of rescuing my skin i started using olay 7in 1 face wash and it was great but thats another story!

I picked this up a couple of weeks ago when The Body Shop had buy two get one free. I was a little unsure as it has a pretty heavy consistency. After using it since then I can tell you this moisturizer is amazing! I was a bit nervous as it comes in such a small size for what you pay, but you need so little each day that it is going to last a long time. It gives my skin a dewy, glowy, feeling without being too heavy. I normally opt for moisturizers that leave a matte look, but now that I've switched to this I won't go back. I have combination skin and this is just right for moisturizing the dry parts and keeping the rest in check and from getting to shiny. I highly suggest you go pick some up today! This is my new forever moisturizer. And with SPF you can't go wrong.

I am not sure if this is for the facial moisturizer or a body lotion. I am a huge fan of the facial moisturizer - it absorbs quickly and is a great primer before foundation. I have had problems buying again - clerk at store said there was problems getting product from "fair trade" routes? Not sure but I hope they work out issues soon. This stuff is great!

Great everyday moisturizer for most times of the year. I get a little dry in the winter with this sometimes and it can be a little heavy during the heat of the summer, but it works great the rest of the year. It has a light scent and spreads easily.

This is actually a very good product. Comes in a medium sized squeeze tube with flip cap.
Good Consistency
The moisturizer itself is a white creme with the *perfect* consistency.
This is important to me as I mix concealer with sunscreen/ moisturizer every morning.
This has great spreadability. It isnt too thick like nivea cream which you have to fight to spread over your skin. It glides right on! Its not thin, sticky and pasty like many sunscreens.
Good Glow
It leaves no whitish cast just a subtle "im a hot 16 yr old with glowing skin" kind of gleam which I find perfect. Not matte, not dry just youthful, virile, beautiful glowing skin!
Very Moisturizing
Its very moisturizing on my dryish skin but doesnt look or feel like and oil slick.
Great Scent
And did I mention it has the most delicate rose scent. Not at all overpowering as some have mentioned just subtle and really lovely to catch during the middle of the day.
It hasnt bothered my allerigies and was so faint I couldnt even pinpoint where it was coming from for a while but very pleasing!
Only SPF 15.
I personallly like to think my face is really being protected the ravages of sun. SPF 15 everyday doesnt cut it! If I found this formulation in spf 50-70 it would be my HG. I might even settle for SPF 30 but this is not enough.
High Price
Price $18 for just 2.5 oz is a little much to spend on something I use every day and have to constantly repurchase. Also I prefer my staples to be drugstore items so that theyre easily accessible. Dont like driving to a Body Shop.
Love this but have since switched to Coppertone NutraShield Faces in SPF 70. Not as spreadable and moisturizing but better protection.

I found this recipe on the back of the box of the Old El Paso Soft Taco Bake Kit. I altered the recipe by changing a few ingredients. It called for salsa, kidney beans, and Monterrey Jack cheese. I used Fat Free Refried beans instead of the salsa and kidney beans. Submitted by DAKOTANMISTY Carbs: 32.9g | Fat: 13.9g | Fiber: 4.1g | Protein: 26.2g | Calories: 358.9

Technically this is a crustless quiche, but the addition of flour makes for a delicious crusty bottom and sides. Submitted by JENNLOVE Carbs: 13.7g | Fat: 4.6g | Fiber: 2.2g | Protein: 10.3g | Calories: 134.1

I lowered the fat and calories of traditional potato soup by using 1% milk and using turkey bacon and low fat cheese as garnishes instead of ingredients. Submitted by ROSIE19531 Carbs: 22.5g | Fat: 5.7g | Fiber: 1.8g | Protein: 9.3g | Calories: 182

OH GOD, That is NOT my Date!!!
Now while writing this, a young man who is in grad school came by to look at an empty room in my apartment. He was a pleasant guy and after a while we started to talk about things besides the apartment, and being guys the conversation turned to women. He told me about a date he had 2 weeks ago. He met the woman on the Internet and, well, same story as mine; marathon runner who shows up overweight and unattractive to him. His thoughts? "Oh crap, I do not wanna spend 80 bucks on dinner on this fat chick."
Well, after all he is in college.
Through the years and all of my research on dating and relationships, I have heard this story relayed countless times from both sexes. You know, the guy with a great head of hair and nice muscles online, who shows up balding, overweight, and in a dirty tee shirt! Geez! So clearly this happens to almost everyone. What I'd really like to know (especially from the women out there) is what did you do when this happened to you? If it hasn't happened, what do you suppose that you would do if this transpired in your life? And even more-so, have you ever done this yourself, and why?
Do you feel it is rude to just walk away? I mean, after all, if someone is putting forth an image that is untrue, isn't that a lie, and have they not already lost the right for respect? Is it not, in effect, an abuse of trust?
Your thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated, by everyone!!!

Behavioral assessment of prelingually deaf children after cochlear implantation. Oral presentation at the American Society for Pediatric Otolaryngology Meeting, Seattle, WA, May 28-31. Practice Priorities I am interested in methods to assess perceptual, linguistic and cognitive development in pre-lingually deaf infants who use cochlear implants (CI). My research is aimed at understanding what impact hearing impairment has on early development and whether these measures obtained in infancy are predictive of later spoken-language abilities. I am also interested in cognitive sources of variance in spoken-language skills in pre-school and school-age children with CIs.
