More reviews by sunblockobsession
Love the smell, love the bar formulation, love the color. Cleans really well, as I would have expected from an SLS product.
I reserve this for getting coconut oil out of my hair, though. If I used it more frequently than that I think my scalp would dry out.

This shampoo changed my life. It sounds dramatic, I know, but it is amazing. First, it lathers so well it is shocking. Second, it smells amazing. Third, it rinses out of my hair quickly and cleanly and fourth my hair is soft and manageable. Plus, this stuff lasts forever. I was stuck in a spiral of trying one mediocre shampoo after another. Finally, someone recommended this to me and I have been singing its praises ever since. I couldn't believe it myself. I didn't want to deal with the hassle of a shampoo bar, but I'm so glad I tried it.

I'm giving this a 3 because I feel its a really great product, but just not for my hair. My hair can be fairly frizzy and volumous anyway (as I have curly hair) and this shampoo bar just left me with soft but VERY fluffy hair. I love that it's solid because it saves on packaging and also means it doesn't need preservatives but I think a different shampoo bar would be better for me. If you have straight or wavy hair and feel like you want a bit of volume or sexy beach waves this will probably work pretty great for you, curly haired girls beware though :/ my hair just can't handle it!
p.s the smell is AMAZING like a fresh ocean breeze or something, hence why I was so attracted to it to begin with
I was attracted to this based on looks - its color is vibrant and the peekaboo seaweed sparked my interest (I have a mermaid obsession! lol). I think it smells refreshing and reminds me of a day at the beach. I have fine, thin, oily hair and this kept the oil at bay and helped to add volume. My only gripe is the seaweed - the chunks can get stuck in your hair which can be annoying so be sure to rinse extra well. Also, be very cautious to not get this in your eyes. Some of this trickled into my eye one time and on a pain scale of 1 to 10 - I'd give it a 9. It stung so badly that I couldn't even open it to flush it out. I thought for sure I'd end up wearing an eye patch for a few days after that incident! It hurts SO much worse than any other shampoo I've ever gotten in my eyes.

I really wanted to like this shampoo. It was a good price and lasts for a long time and is convenient for travel but the main ingredient is sodium lauryl sulfate and after 2 weeks of using and loving the shampoo, my scalp started to get very dry and itchy and started flaking really bad. At first I thought it was the season change and dryer air that made my scalp so dry but I experiment with my other sulfate free shampoo and my scalp went back to normal. I tried the shampoo bar again and my scalp was incredibly dry and flaky again. Im willing to try the shampoo again if the main ingredient isn't such a harsh sulfate.
I was really eager to try this after reading so many great reviews on it but sadly, i was disappointed. This shampoo is incredibly drying even on my oily scalp. It gave some volume to my hair but not much. It does have a nice fresh scent to it though!
I find shampoo bars an awesome idea however, after using this for almost 4 months (still have some left!) I think i need to get another type of bar from Lush. Mind you this does what it's supposed to do - it has sea salt in it to give your hair volume and is probably good for oily hair, but it's pretty drying and that doesn't help if you have the occasional itchy scalp and such. Other than that it's a very nice product, lathers up well, has a nice smell, lasts for ages, it's a nice shampoo to use if you have dreads too cause it has no conditioning agent whatsoever in it. It's always nice to support Lush, with their eco-friendly packaging, natural ingredients and the fact that they don't test on animals, too!
I'm a huge fan of LUSH's solid shampoos, and this one is no exception! I have fine, bleached hair that is oily at the roots and more dry towards the ends. It's so hard for me to find shampoos that control my oil for an entire day without making my ends look like straw. Luckily, Seanik does just that! After using this, my hair feels super clean but not stripped in any way, and with a little conditioner at my ends my hair feels soft, bouncy, and most importantly not at all greasy!
I used to be really skeptical of shampoo bars, but they work just as well as liquid shampoo. I just wet my hair, wet the bar, swipe it down the length of my hair about 6 times (I have longer hair, if yours is short you can use less), lather, and rinse. This stuff lathers up so well and it rinses out clean. I hate when shampoos leave residue in your hair, so thankfully Seanik doesn't. The smell is great -- it smells really fresh and clean and a little salty, it really reminds me of the ocean. The smell really doesn't linger in your hair, which can be good or bad, depending on what you want. I personally wish the smell did linger, but oh well. I was worried that the little bits of seaweed would tangle up in my hair, but I never had an issue. A bar of this will last me about 3 months of everyday use, and considering this is only a little over $10, I think that's an awesome value. Just make sure to store it in a soap dish away from the stream of the shower, otherwise it will get kind of gooey if it never dries fully.
If you have oily hair, check this out! You may become a shampoo bar convert like me. :) (Also try Jumping Juniper and New! if you have oily hair...those work super well too!)
I really wanted to love this shampoo. It smells so fresh and clean, lathered great, and left no build up, BUT...it was super drying and dulled my hair to the point of no shine. My usually silky feeling hair feels a bit more brittle since using this stuff. It also loses its circular shape and turns into a congealed ball of gel with seaweed bits in it. I'm not sure if that's normal or if I just got a bad one, but I was unfortunately not impressed with this stuff. I'm open to trying other Lush shampoos, but I sadly won't be repurchasing this stuff again.

My friend is currently in custody. She served time in el dorado county for driving w/o a licence. After being there for 6 days she got detained by immigration and released shortly after to sacramento county jail and she is charged with petty theft from 2009 and has a bp hold. What can we do? She has no family at all here but her 4 underage kids. She was victim of domestic violence and her ex got deportes to México in feb '13 her kids are all us citizens and 2 have health problems.
How long can it take for the petty theft to be cleared/paid? Thank you Before hand for your time.,
Prior counsel have given good comments that might help answer your questions. In addition, you should appreciate that if she has any other prior shoplifting convictions, she may be facing considerably more time in custody. Also, what was the value of the items allegedly taken in the 2009 petty theft? If it was a very small amount, her public defender may be able to ask the prosecutor to amend the complaint to allege an infraction violation of Penal Code section 490.1, which may allow her release quite quickly. If the amount was much larger, this could complicate the release date.
I would find out which prosecutor and public defender are assigned to her 2009 case that she is being held for and let both know in writing about the four children and her husband being deported for domestic violence. If there are documents to show the health problems and you can discuss what she plans to do for employment once released, enclose such documents and discuss the employment future. Personally deliver both letters. Identify yourself and give your phone number to make yourself available to answer questions they might have. This may make it easier for them to do something. Take some action.

Gear Review
Jesse Mathey
Nice Audio, Tight Fit
Here's the dirt: the audio system is great, but the volume wheel is touchy with gloves on, so I replaced their standard audio cable with one that is compatible with my iPhone and has a microphone built in (like the headphones that come with the iPhone) so I can give commands and talk on the phone straight from the audio cable. It was a $5 upgrade and is worth it. The microphone falls right by my mouth when routed properly from the helmet and I never have to dig in my pockets or take off my gloves to talk on the phone. The helmet itself seems to run small. It is a little tight around my ears and can get uncomfortable if your on the snow all day. I do like that I can take out the liner and use this for kayaking and rafting. I would recommend the helmet. It is worth the money.

For all of you who are "on-the-fence" about where to stay in Hawaii, we would like to share some important things to consider.
When it comes to airfare, renting a car, food, gas and misc. expenses, everyone who ventures out to Hawaii will pretty much pay the same price. The real difference is the lodging. A lot of people overlook this important decision and often find themselves having a sub par vacation based on where they ended up staying. 'We get it! ' You thought that you would save a few bucks, however, the few bucks that you saved on paper did
nothing to ultimately enhance your trip.
That's where Simple Pleasures makes a difference.
For the value, we offer a clean, comfortable and elegant accommodation that will absolutely enhance your stay in Hawaii.
We invite you to view our photos and video to see the difference.
We are offering the Penthouse level of our 5,000 sq. ft recently finished Beach home starting at $175.00. You get the top floor, 2 bedroom, 2 full bathroom, huge penthouse suite that sleeps 5. All of our amenities are clean, custom and brand new! The rest of the house is officially closed, which means no other people will stay in this Huge Home or on the property while you are there. Lastly, this Hawaiian Palace is only a 5 min. walk to the beach! What more can we say? it is a fantastic deal. Please compare our photos and videos with others on the site. Our aim is to get it right, and make sure our guests are happy.
If this makes sense to you please read on and get more details. Aloha! Simple Pleasures.
Our official Property Description
From the start, the concept behind this truly majestic build was very clear, tastefully work with the land, capture its essence, and "Keep it Simple."
The Hawaiian Islands are simply one of the world's most desirable locations, truly a tropical paradise beyond compare. A perfect fit for a once in a lifetime opportunity to build a once in a lifetime dream. With that said, we warmly offer our personal contribution to the islands by launching our most beautiful creation to date, "Simple Pleasures".
Situated approximately 45 minutes south of Kailua- Kona, Simple Pleasures is close enough to partake in all of Kona's nightlife yet far enough away to marinate in a real feeling of authentic Hawaiian lifestyle. Once you set foot on the property, it will be obvious that your new Hawaiian home was the right choice. This freshly finished 2012 custom home is easily on par with the highest of high-end resorts, but at nearly half the cost.
Our " Plumeria Lined Paradise", a five minute walk to the beach, not only offers some of the most magnificent ocean views, but our guests will appreciate the natural breezes from the Hawaiian trade winds lufting through our 16ft ceilings. Luxurious stone floors were thoughtfully placed in all common areas to ensure our guests keep cool. The full size custom bathrooms, made of both stone and marble, enjoy upgraded touches such as custom cabinets, vessel sinks and bidets to enhance your experience. For the utmost comfort, each bedroom has been outfitted with luxury hotel grade queen size pillow-top mattresses, finished off with mahogany sleigh bed frames. Additionally, the bedrooms include mahogany hardwood floors, your own private bath, wireless internet, and safe deposit boxes. Our tastefully executed kitchen, designed to be a "social kitchen", places the cook in a position that faces the entire living room, lanai and all guests while preparing meals whether dining indoors or using the formal dining table outdoors on the lanai. Last but not least, the crown jewel of Simple Pleasures is our 1,000-sq.ft ocean facing lanai. You can easily see 40 miles of spectacular coastline views in each direction! It really equates to being the ultimate outdoor living room on the property. This is where all the sunsets, whale watching and outdoor socializing happens. Whether it is a glass of wine, reading a book, or stretching out on the 8ft. daybed, this spot is all Hawaii. From our vantage point, the mixture of fresh floral air mixed with the tranquil ocean breeze cannot be put into words. This is truly a space to be experienced. With this much space, we also created an outdoor "dining room". This was brilliant! With million dollar views, this is the perfect spot for our guest to gather and have breakfast before a day of site seeing, lunch after snorkeling at the beach or a beautiful backdrop for a romantic dinner at sunset. It doesn't get any better.
Simple Pleasures to us means, "seamless harmony". Understanding that your Hawaii vacation means everything to you and trips like this don't happen everyday, our focus was to anticipate your needs and exceed your expectations.
We thank you for considering us and wish you nothing but Aloha, and remember,
"Keep it Simple"!
Note: Our calendar is up to date. If there is a partial line through the date, then that day is not available.
Thank you!

Hot Looks for the Sizzling Summer Sun
Whether it's at a BBQ or the beach, look pretty and keep your skin and hair protected with these summer products.
1. Say goodbye to flaky lips thanks to Bobbi Brown's Treatment Lip Shine SPF15. The collections of 12 smooth lipsticks have just the right amount of shine and color for a summer pout and the special formula hydrates at the same time.
2. Neutrogena's UltraSheer Liquid daily sunblock in SPF 70 and SPF 55 is our favorite summer staple (and you can find it at just about any drugstore). The lotion absorbs quickly and the sun protection is strong enough to keep your face and body shielded all day.3. We're always on the search for the perfect eyeliner—one that doesn't smudge, smear, or cake. This week, we suggest Luminess Air Calligraphy Eyeliner Pen: it draws a clean, medium line, and after a day of running around Manhattan, it still looks perfect!
4. Rene Furterer's Protective Summer Fluid is the strongest hair protection we've come across. It has SPF 90 and is waterproof so you don't have to keep reapplying. Just in case your hair does get dried out, use the Repairing After Sun Mask. The balm repairs tresses damaged by the sun, salt and chlorine, leaving hair hydrated and smooth.
5. Making a pedicure last through a day at the beach can be hard so we love Zoya's Color Lock set that includes prepping polishes and to keep your nails safe in the sun and water.
6. Calvin Klein's collection of summer fragrances has something for everyone. The citrusy CK One Summer eau de toilllete is bright and lively for daytime. For night, Eternity Summer eau de parfum smells cool and laid-back and comes in a spicier version for men.

Studies screening the genome of hundreds of thousands of individuals (known as Genome-wide association studies or GWAS) have linked more than 100 regions in the genome to the risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Researchers from the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) and the University of Heidelberg, through the joint Molecular Medicine Partnership Unit (MMPU), are taking these results one step further by pinpointing the exact genes that could have a role in the onset of the disease. Their findings are published today in the Public Library of Science (PLoS) Genetics.
The scientists used a technology called "RNA interference" that can selectively decrease the level of expression of targeted genes. By observing what changes, if any, this decrease causes in cells, researchers can identify the function of the genes and, on a larger scale, objectively test the function of many genes in parallel.
Cholesterol levels in the blood are one of the main risk factors for cardiovascular disease. They are controlled by the amount of cholesterol that cells can take in - thus removing it from the blood - and metabolise. The researchers used RNA interference to test the function of each of the genes within 56 regions previously identified by GWAS as being linked with cardiovascular disease. They selectively decreased their action and measured what, if any, changes this induced in cholesterol metabolism. From this they could deduce which of the genes are most likely to be involved in the onset of the disease.
"This is the first widescale RNA interference study that follows up on GWAS. It has proven its potential by narrowing down a large list of candidate genes to the few with an important function that we can now focus on in future in-depth studies," explains Rainer Pepperkok at EMBL, who co-led the study with Heiko Runz at the University of Heidelberg.
"In principle, our approach can be applied to any di

Draft expert Mike Mayock joins PFT Live at the NFL Combine to help break down some of the biggest questions stemming from the event. Although the 2013 class is not very rich with elite QBs, Mayock believes the teams that need a signal caller will reach for guys earlier than necessary.

Roger Goodell: Rules more important than competitive advantage
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said early in his press conference that the investigation into the #DeflateGate is continuing, but was careful to not draw comparisons to previous investigations.
Asked specifically about his "ignorance is no defense" ruling on Sean Payton during the Saints bounty scandal, Goddell said it was not fair to compare the two.
"We don't know enough in this case to know who is responsible, or if there was an infraction," he said.
While it would be convenient to keep them separate, the issues about the league's handling of these cases continues to come under question.
He also called the NFL "a game of rules" when asked about the potential of punishment for balls being
"Whether a competitive advantage is gained or not is secondary in my mind to whether a rule is violated," he said.
Bret Bielema says talks to coach Dolphins in 2012 broke down over Russell Wilson
Every team in the NFL except the Saints and Raiders passed on Russell Wilson at least once in the 2012 NFL Draft before the Seahawks selected him in the third round.
If Bret Bielema had been able to convince the Dolphins that Wilson was worth taking earlier on, Sunday's Super Bowl might be very different. Bielema is now the coach of Arkansas, but he was the coach of Wisconsin during Wilson's final collegiate season and was interviewing with the Dolphins about their head coaching job in early 2012 when Wilson's name came up.
Bielema said he told General Manager Jeff Ireland and others that he thought the Dolphins should draft Wilson in the second round, but the team disagreed with his take.
"They all looked at me like, 'You can't say that,'" Bielema said, via ESPN.com. "That's the difference between college and pro. He's undersized. He can't throw.' I was like, 'OK, all right,' and I honestly, that day, kind of pulled myself out of it."
The Dolphins wound up drafting Ryan Tannehill with the eighth overall pick after hiring Joe Philbin to be their head coach and Tannehill's college coach Mike Sherman as their offensive coordinator, setting up a pretty sizable "What if?" to consider about the trajectory of Miami and Seattle over the last three years.
Goodell: League is committed to keeping teams in markets
Even though Rams owner Stan Kroenke has been doing more than just making eyes at Los Angeles, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell reiterated a degree of support for St. Louis.
"We want all of our franchises to stay in their current market," Goodell said, when asked about the league's stance on the stability of the Rams.
That was followed by the annual question about the league's interest in the L.A. market, and Goodell largely sidestepped the issue of Kroenke's plans to build a stadium there.
"There have been no determinations of us going to Los Angeles," he said, saying that covered any particular team or stadium.
It doesn't seem like Kroenke got that memo, as he's made plans that seem to be well-received by the league.
Bears sign LB DeDe Lattimore to two-year extension
The Bears have signed one of their defensive reserves and special teams contributors to a new deal.
Chicago has extended linebacker DeDe Lattimore's contract through 2016, the team said Friday.
Lattimore appeared in 10 games for Chicago in 2014, notching five special teams tackles, per club statistics. A South Florida product, Lattimore signed with the Bears as an undrafted free agent last May. Lattimore turned 24 on Friday.
The Bears also made a coaching staff move Friday, retaining wide receivers coach Mike Groh, the team said. He has served as Chicago's receivers coach the last two years. He previously was an assistant at the University of Alabama.
Roger Goodell says NFL will hire a chief medical officer
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has plenty to talk about today, but he opened his annual state of the league press conference with talk about player safety.
He said the league was about to hire a chief medical officer to oversee medial policies, with an announcement expected soon.
He cited stats from yesterday's report that concussions were down 25 percent from the previous year, but said there was more to be done.
He added that hits to defenseless players were down 68 percent this season.
Hernandez jurors can watch Super Bowl
The presiding judge in the Aaron Hernandez murder trial will allow jurors to watch the Super Bowl.
According to ESPN's Michelle Steele, Bristol (Mass.) County Superior Court Judge Susan Garsh said jurors can watch Sunday's game between the Patriots and Seahawks, but she asked them to step out of the room if Hernandez — the former New England tight end — is mentioned during the telecast of the contest.
The trial is in its second day. Hernandez is accused in the June 2013 killing of Odin Lloyd in Massachusetts.
Peyton Manning hasn't made up his mind about next year
Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning hasn't made up his mind about his playing future, but said he thinks he'll have a decision sooner rather than later.
Via Bob Glauber of Newsday, Manning said he's still thinking about what he wants to do in 2015.
"I'm not interested in making this a lingering thing," Manning said. "I'd like to make a decision soon."
He said he didn't think passing his annual physical in March would be a problem, at least as it pertains to his surgically repaired neck.
Of course, the leg injuries he was dealing with down the stretch were clearly an issue, and how they affected his play likely complicates his decision.
LeGarrette Blount's marijuana charges dropped
The Patriots gave LeGarrette Blount a clean slate, and now he has a clean record to go with it.
According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Blount completed his court-ordered 50 hours of community service in Boston, and the marijuana possession charges were dropped by local prosecutors.
Blount and then-Steelers teammate Le'Veon Bell were arrested on their way to the airport for a preseason game in August, and the DUI charges Bell had in addition to the possession could lead to a two-game suspension next year.
But after bailing out on the Steelers in midseason, Blount was released and quickly signed by the Patriots, who will be counting on him Sunday.
PFT's Super Bowl picks
It's finally here. And I still have no clear idea who will win. Even though a blowout could be brewing (especially if the Patriots can duplicate what the Packers did in the NFC title game before opting not to play to win but playing not to lose), I don't have a really strong feeling.
But enough of that. This is the part where I write a few paragraphs to set up the picks.
And then I say the MDS and I were both accurate with our conference title picks, and that he's 9-1 for the postseason, and I'm 7-3.
MDS's take: Moving past #Deflategate and Marshawn Lynch sparring with reporters and all of the off-field issues of the last two weeks, I keep thinking it comes down to this: Seattle's defense is just too good.
Last year the Seahawks' defense made Peyton Manning look bad in the Super Bowl, and this year I think the Seahawks' defense is going to make Tom Brady look bad in the Super Bowl. Richard Sherman, Byron Maxwell, Kam Chancellor and Earl Thomas are about as good as it gets in the NFL, and I don't think Brady is going to find many open receivers on Sunday. If there's one weakness to Seattle's defense it's that a good tight end can beat them, and as a result I can see Rob Gronkowski having a big day. But even if Gronk gets 100 yards and a touchdown, that won't be enough on a day when I don't expect any of the Patriots' wide receivers to play well.
The reason this game will be a lot closer than last year's Super Bowl is that I don't see Seattle putting a lot of points on the board. Bill Belichick will have a good game plan to neutralize Russell Wilson's running, and the Patriots' secondary should be able to shut down Seattle's wide receivers. This looks like a fairly low-scoring game.
But in the end, it's a game that sees Seattle coming out on top. The Seahawks will repeat.
MDS's pick: Seahawks 21, Patriots 17.
Florio's take: Back in September, I picked the Seahawks and Patriots to make it to the Super Bowl. And I picked the Seahawks to win. And I can't in good conscience abandon that selection.
I could be wrong. Very wrong. The Patriots may finish the job the Packers started. The Patriots may give Russell Wilson the Tim Tebow treatment, blowing the Seahawks out in the first half so that there's no chance for a rabbit-from-hat finish. Or maybe it will be a close, down-to-the-wire, three-point margin with Stephen Gotskowski playing the role of Adam Vinatieri.
Coach Bill Belichick has the uncanny ability to develop a game plan that is unique to each opponent, figuring out how to move the ball against any defense he faces — and how to take away what any offense does best. Throw in the #DeflateGate disrespect, and Belichick may be able to press enough buttons to overcome the Seahawks.
But it's the Seahawks in the Super Bowl, not Cincinnati in Week Five. Sometimes, no amount of Xs and Os and "us against them" and "win one for the Gipper" matters. G.M. John Schneider has put together an excellent roster, and Pete Carroll has coached them up to the point where they believe they can beat anyone.
This year, they didn't beat everyone, but all that matters on Sunday is whether the can score more points than the Patriots. I believed they could in September, so I've got no choice but to stick with that now.
Florio's pick: Seahawks 27, Patriots 24.
Baseball scout thinks Tom Brady could have been a good catcher
Tom Brady's football accomplishments are certainly impressive, but if the Montreal Expos had their way, he might have never made it to the Super Bowl.
Like Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, Brady was once a baseball prospect as well, and the Expos used an 18th-round pick on the left-handed-hitting catcher in 1995, hoping to steer him away from Michigan.
Instead, he went to college, was drafted 12 rounds earlier in the NFL Draft by the Patriots, and the rest is history.
But the scout who encouraged the Expos to try to lure him to the diamond is convinced the same qualities that enabled him to lead six teams to Super Bowls would have translated well.
"I think he would have been a pro," veteran scout John Hughes said, via Joe Frisaro of MLB.com. "He had all the intangibles. He could throw, left-handed power. There is no reason to think this guy couldn't have been a big league catcher."
Brady was a promising baseball player at Serra High School, which also produced Barry Bonds and Gregg Jefferies.
"I could have ruined NFL history if I signed this guy," Hughes said. "To this day, in all my years of scouting, Tom is still the most impressive high school kid I've ever been around. Just the person, the way he carries himself. What you're seeing now, obviously, he is more mature. But it's not a drastic change. He just had this presence.
"He's a good guy. His family are great people. I always say, it was the most fun summer I tried to sign a guy I didn't sign."
Bill Belichick's certainly glad he didn't.
Belichick, Carroll both downplay eligible receiver issue
The Patriots have confused both of their playoff opponents by switching offensive players back and forth from eligible to ineligible receivers. But neither coach Bill Belichick nor his opponent on Sunday, Pete Carroll, thinks that's going to be an issue in the Super Bowl.
At the coaches' final media appearance today, PFT asked both coaches about the issue, and they both said they're confident that the officials will handle any such plays properly, with no problems.
"That's not my job, so whatever the officials do, that's their protocol and their mechanics, so whatever that is, you should direct that concern to the league," Belichick said.
Carroll said that he is confident the officials will handle the Patriots' formations correctly. And although there have been some suggestions that Belichick is pushing the bounds of the rules when he tries those formations, Carroll said he admires the Patriots for constantly finding new ways to play.
"I don't have any problem with the way it's been handled," Carroll said. "Bill has done a good job of challenging us with really unique and innovative ideas in how to move people around. . . . I don't think there's going to be any issue."
Here's hoping that Carroll is right. It would be nice to see the NFL get through a game without an officiating issue.
PFT Live wraps up its week in Arizona at noon ET
It's been a great week in Arizona getting ready for the Super Bowl and we're just about ready to stop talking about the game and start playing it.
There's still some time left before "just about ready" flips over to "ready," though, and that moment won't come before the end of Friday's edition of PFT Live. Mike Florio will be coming to you once again from Radio Row with everything you need to know about the Super Bowl and the rest of the football world.

NFLPA will offer its own salary cap estimates soon
The NFLPA wants to make sure teams are spending enough money on players, and they're going to release their own set of numbers to try to encourage just that.
Via Tom Pelissero of USA Today, union boss DeMaurice Smith said they would release their own salary cap projection next month, since they feel the league has tried to deflate the market with low-ball estimates.
Last year, the salary cap rose from $123 million to $133 million, and the league's management council told teams to expect next year's to fall between $138.6 million to $141.8 million. But Smith said he thinks the final figure will be higher than that.
"Look, I'm thrilled when the salary cap goes up 10 million dollars," Smith said. "I'm ecstatic when they're paying 8.5 (million) of that. . . .
"The last few years, you have seen various stories reported by some of you in the room … where you have reported things about the salary cap from ownership that has turned out to not be true. We believe that that not only misrepresents the economic reality of how the salary cap works, but our concern is that those inaccurate projections may have a negative consequence on some players who are trying to negotiate new contracts."
Smith also pointed to 10 teams that didn't spend required the 89 percent cash spending minimum in 2013, the Browns, Texans, Jaguars, Patriots, Saints, Giants, Jets, Raiders, Steelers and Washington.
"Let's be blunt: it's not overly titillating," Smith said. "But the reason why I think it's interesting to look at those 10 teams that were under the 89 percent — and there were a couple that were hovering around the 80 percent – (is) they're going to be in a situation where hypothetically, if the cap continues to rise as we expect, on the back end of this deal, they've got to spend 110 and 120 percent of a salary cap that's 20 million dollars higher than it was three years ago. To that, I say, 'Fantastic.'"
While Smith's right that the math won't grab headlines, the fact that the salary cap is rising at a rate higher than expected will force teams to spend more, which is what he's after.
Pete Carroll on Richard Sherman's imminent arrival: I can't wait to see little Petey
Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman is set to become a father soon enough that there's a possibility that the baby could come before the end of the Super Bowl on Sunday, which led to questions for Sherman about what he'd do if his son decided to arrive before the Lombardi Trophy.
Sherman said he hopes his son is a "disciplined young man" who waits until his father and the rest of the Seahawks have finished the game on Sunday, but, as any father knows, even the best laid plans are meaningless in the face of a baby's schedule. Sherman won't say whether he'd miss the game if the little one decided to make his appearance on Sunday and coach Pete Carroll said Friday that the team is behind Sherman in any choice he makes.
"It's about family first and we will support his decision," Carroll said before adding that he "can't wait to see little Petey."
We've got no insight into what Sherman will be naming his son, although if we were forced to guess we'd say Carroll's only a slightly likelier namesake than Michael Crabtree.
Dean Blandino: Nate Solder's AFC Championship TD shouldn't have counted
The Patriots' use of offensive linemen as eligible receivers and running back Shane Vereen as an ineligible receiver has created confusion for defenses and officials in the playoffs.
That confusion led to a touchdown that shouldn't have counted in the AFC Championship game. Tom Brady threw a touchdown pass to tackle Nate Solder during that game on a play that NFL vice president of officiating Dean Blandino should have been flagged as an illegal substitution.
"There was an issue on that play where on the previous play, [Cameron] Fleming had reported as an eligible player," Blandino said, via CSNNE.com. "And on the Solder touchdown he went back to playing an ineligible position. That's illegal. That's an illegal substitution. So that's something we discussed with the crew. Bill [Belichick] was made aware of it. So we're going to be looking for that, make sure we follow the proper mechanics so that doesn't happen again."
Jim Miller of Sirius XM NFL Radio picked up on the missed call last week and pointed it out, but there was no confirmation from the league until Blandino's press conference on Thursday. Plenty of other people probably would have picked up on it as well had the score not been 45-7 and another issue having to do with the air pressure of footballs not taken hold of the United States for the last two weeks.

The template for this animation is the myth of the otter and the rabbit. Obviously I've replaced "Otter" with "Lizard." This is only because there seems to be a running gag with "lizard" having their fish stolen among native myth. The otter and the rabbit is the only instance where fish was stolen from someone other than lizard, so... I changed it to lizard.
So here it is Wrip and Calamity put aside their differences (grudgingly) for the sake of betterment... and when I say betterment I mean screwin' with ornery folk...No they won't drown... it's a shallow pool after it's mostly emptied....Can't have them dehydrating.^^0

This is a wonderful animation! I Rarely view E rated Material do to thinking it was aimed for children, but you proved to me that art knows no boundaries, bro. Man, This reminds me of The Secret Of Kells!
Dude, this is one of the most adorable cartoons I've ever seen! I just freaking love how it's so wonerful in every aspect. I think it's strongest point is how the characters are so freaking adorable. Bunny Foo Foo stands out as the best of course. I'm fairly certain that's her name. It really did turn out to be people dress as mice just as depicted.
You just have no idea what's going to happen next. The voice work is absolutely flawless! These accents are so freaking adorable! I live in Florida and I don't hear them that much. Maybe I'm just used to them. I'm glad we have people like you here.

Multiple organisations censured for flouting Do-Not-Call rule
Published on Feb 14, 2014 12:04 PM
The Personal Data Protection Commission has censured multiple organisations for breaching the Do-Not-Call (DNC) Registry requirements.
Investigations started in response to 1,500 valid complaints from the public on some 580 organisations since the DNC rules kicked in on Jan 2 this year.
The organisations in question are from sectors including private education, property, banking and finance, retail, insurance and telecommunications.
Complaints related to suspected unlicensed money lending were also received by the Personal Data Protection Commission, which administers the DNC Registry and enforce its rules. The cases have been referred to the police, said the Commission today.

Article ID: 255502 - View products that this article applies to. This article was previously published under Q255502 This article has been archived. It is offered "as is" and will no longer be updated. SYMPTOMS
When you run a WebClass (IIS Application) in Visual Basic 6.0 under Windows 2000, the following error message appears in the browser:
Server object, ASP 0178 (0x800A0005)
The call to Server.CreateObject failed while checking permissions. Access is denied to this object. CAUSE
The authenticating user, usually the IUSR_<computername> account if you use anonymous access, does not have the appropriate permissions to access the DCOM Server (VB6.exe in this case). When you debug WebClasses in the Visual Basic IDE, the "launching user" is the Interactive user and the user who is accessing the DCOM Server is the "authenticating user." Because there is no DCOM entry for VB6.exe, DCOM uses the default permissions. In Windows 2000, the DCOM default access permissions are only given to the System account and the launching user by default. Because the launching user and the user accessing the DCOM Server are not the same, the error occurs. WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, add a DCOM entry for VB6.exe into the registry. This will enable you to set specific DCOM permissions for debugging WebClasses in Visual Basic. The instructions for doing this are in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
PRB: Error Occurs When You Debug a COM+ Component Under the Visual Basic IDE with an ASP Client
This behavior does not occur in Windows NT 4.0 and Internet Information Server (IIS) 4.0. For additional information regarding the ASP 0178 error under Windows NT 4.0, click the article numbers below to view the articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 198432

CHARITY IN DUBAI: Dubai may be having a tough time, but today local women will be able to shop and support a good cause. Organized by the U.K.-based charity organization Whatever It Takes, the two-day fund-raising-sale event takes place at the Palm Jumeirah, on one of the man-made islands that have since become a symbol of Dubai's extravagance. On sale are original, one-of-a-kind or limited edition artwork, clothing, accessories and homeware specially designed for and donated to Whatever It Takes by the likes of Giorgio Armani, Donna Karan, Tamara Mellon of Jimmy Choo, Lucy Liu, Nicole Kidman, Coldplay and Samuel L. Jackson. Prices range from $25 for a mug, to $220 for a watch.
According to Charlotte di Vita MBE, founder of Whatever It Takes, what is unique about this form of fund-raising is that "the currency is not really measured in U.S. dollars, but in the equivalent benefits. A similar sale in Doha, held last December at the W Doha for example, raised the equivalent of 40,000 meals for street children in South Africa." Di Vita cited items by Sir Paul Smith and Armani among the bestsellers at the Doha event, but added that Kanye West was also a close second and is bound to be popular in Dubai. "His drawing is kind of funky," she said.

This is a discussion on Paranoid? within the Concealed Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Originally Posted by digitalexplr Some of you really do need to step back and chill out. You are getting in a mind set that is ...
Never underestimate a lady.
Lay off the forums, you're getting paranoid.
Simply put, yes. (to the bold, anyway)
No, I'm not saying be paranoid about everyone, that's ridiculous. But there's a spectrum between paranoia and complete obliviousness. Suspecting everyone of being out to kill you will get you put away in a hurry. On the other hand, being aware is a good idea.
I work at McDonald's, on the overnight shift. I interact with dozens, scores, maybe 100+ people every day. Does this mean I have to think everyone's out to get me? No. I couldn't function. On the other hand, it's not a bad idea to think to myself "what could happen" and right on the tail of that "what would I do." If I don't, say I only pay attention to 1 person in 4, what do I do if someone who's going to rob me is one of the other 3? Why should I not at least consider the possibility that every person I encounter is a possible assailant? Only seems prudent, to me.
I would love to change the world, but they won't give me the source code
Semper Vigilans et Paratus
"I assume" is identical with "I think I know something (but I really don't)". Assuming no threat leads me to condition white. Assuming there is a potential threat somewhere in the area, maybe not the woman with baby, keeps me out of condition white.
Murphy's 3rd law: If everything seems to be going well, you are probably overlooking something.
"Paranoia strikes deep. Into your lives it will creep." (Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young)
She was alone. She had two carts. She had a baby. True, the carts and the baby could have been props which were stolen for the occasion ... but that's highly unlikely.
The Edge ... there's no honest way to describe it. The only ones who know where it is have gone over.
I think you did the right thing. Don't know where in southwest KS you live but I can think of three SW KS cities that I would be a bit more alert in when walking in a walmart parking lot. Spent from 1991 to 1996 in the exterme sw corner of the state and from what I have heard it has only gotten worse in those three communities. I had a person on lives in the same community as I do say he a a friend where threaten for parking in a city park in one of the three communities of which I speak, something that would not have happened when I lived in the area and spent time in that community. So, paranoid? Maybe! You are also able to write the story here! As others have said "Just cause I am PARANOID; it does not mean the world is not out to get me!!!"

Question re: something one of the CMs said to me
Good morning all! We just got back from our surprise trip to Disney and had a GREAT time despite a few obstacles. Thank goodness my BIL took his daughter to the park on our arrival day and had to wait in a 2+ hour line for Space Mountain . . . they were more than willing to listen to me and my Touring Plans advice for the rest of the trip and we barely waited for anything! Except once . . .
On our first full day in the MK, we went from ride to ride with little wait. We had decided we were just about done and while walking through NFL, checked the app for the LM ride time wait. It was listed as 25 minutes posted, 21 expected. We walked up to the ride and sure enough it was posted at 25 minutes. About 25 minutes in, we were still in the outside portion of the queue and my youngest had to use the potty (thank you falling water!) I excused the two of us from the line (had to use all of my strength to keep her from kicking anyone else since she was upset that we were leaving "her best princess ever"!) We went over to Rapunzel's tower, did our business and headed back to the line. I spoke with the CM at the front and asked if there was anything that we could do, my BIL was ahead of us in the line, I had to leave with my youngest etc. He chuckled and said that he remembered her and to go on ahead through the line. Luckily, most of the people we were passing also remembered my little screaming banshee and let us through with no issue. By the time we caught up to my BIL, the group had just made it in to the covered area and we had been waiting for about 35 minutes. The line continued to inch forward and we got into the room where you load after waiting for about an hour. A CM who was standing in the middle of the room made a comment about seeing lots of grumpy faces. She made eye contact directly with me and so I answered. I asked her about how much longer it would take to load from the point where we were standing. She kind of shrugged her shoulders and said that it shouldn't be too much longer. I told her that we had gotten in line because the wait time was posted as 25 minutes and that we had been waiting for over an hour already. She apologized and said that it was just an estimate. I told her it was one thing to make a choice to get in line with 4 young kids for a 25 minute wait but it was entirely different to wait for over an hour. She then told me that they have no control over the wait time that is listed, that it's all computerized and they can't do anything about it. At that point we were moving again and we got on the ride about 10 minutes later. I thought that the point of those little red squares was to help have an accurate wait time listed. If not, what is the point? FWIW, when we left the wait time was still listed at 25 minutes and the outside line was all the way filled. That was seriously the ONLY Disney downside to our trip. We had some other rough bumps, but those were totally out of Disney's control. |

Plugged in not charging
I recently got a new HP laptop with Win7 pro installed. When the battery is 95-99% it does not charge. It say PLUGGED in NOT CHARGING. I got replacement laptop and that also have same issue. I tried with new AC adaptor and same issue. I uninstall Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery and same issue. Googled as well and tried but nonthing seems to be working. Plugged in, not charging on HP Business Notebook plugged in not charging after Win 7 install I contacted HP again and they said that some issue might be with system board. I took 10 days to transfer data to this laptop with all s/w... Can someone please help me to resolve the issue or suggest whether its hardware issue or Win 7 issue. Thanks in advance |

It may be a failsafe to avoid overcharging of the batts, but the fools at HP tech support should have been able to tell you that if it was the case. However with HP outsourcing tech support to India, Roger (I mean Rajah) and his tech support isnt the highest level.
If your lappy batt charges fine when it's totally depleted, I wouldnt worry. And really you shouldnt be topping off a charge at 95-99%... LET IT DRAIN! |

Griego initially told arriving officers he had come home Saturday morning after spending time at a friend's house to discover his family dead, court documents say. The teen later confessed to shooting his mother because he "had anger issues" and was annoyed with her, the records say.
The teen had no history of mental illness, and drugs and alcohol didn't appear to be a factor, Houston said. He did note, however, that the teen liked violent video games, including "Modern Warfare" and "Grand Theft Auto." Houston did not say whether he believed the games were a factor.
Greg Griego was a gang member-turned pastor who had once served at Calvary, one of Albuquerque's largest Christian churches. He had an extensive arrest record from his gang days, but was best known throughout the law enforcement community for his work as a voluntary chaplain.
A records check by the Children, Youth and Families Department indicated no problems with the Griego family and that Nehemiah Griego had never been in trouble with the law.
Sheriff's Deputy Aaron Williamson confirmed there was no history of any emergency calls to the home in the recent past.
"This is beyond any human reasoning or understanding," Houston said.
"It's horrific. What other words do you use? This is certainly the first time that I have been into a crime scene with this much destruction at one home."
In addition to the two rifles, there were two 12-gauge pistol-grip shotguns in the home, Houston said. Griego's father had taught him to use guns, and they shot together on a regular basis, Houston said.
The house had a security-style sign outside saying "Protected by Smith & Wesson Security Services."

Please keep in mind I'm writing this off the top of my head while doing three other things at the same time, so don't roast me too badly if my feeble memory fails me. :)

NOTE: I feel that this is different than the situation described in the sticky. I don't crash right as I go into the load screen. Once my blue bar is full and goes to ready, my game exits and I have to reconnect. Anyone else seeing a similar problem?
Senior Member
when you reconnect are you able to get into the game? or is that as far as you can get?
just started having this problem. get to the load screen and it seems fine. Blue bar goes across but when the game is suppose to start the game crashes. Can log back in and it says the game is still there and can reconnect but it does not allow me to. Does the same thing with the loading bar then crashes. Just started happening last night and i haven't changed anything so I'm not sure why it is happening.

Warm up with Reál Sangria!
We're coming to you live from Miami, FL, bundled up in what seems to be every single layer of clothing we own. In a city where the average temperature in January is about 70 degrees, baring the recent 30 degree weather has been no walk in the park. To stay warm, we're drinking spiced Sangría!
1/3 cup Triple Sec
1/4 cup sugar
4 whole cloves
1 cup apple juice
3 blood oranges, sliced
2 lemons
1 pear
2 cinnamon sticks
1 bottle of Reál Sangria
Combine all ingredients in a large pitcher until the sugar dissolves. If you cannot find a particular fruit, replace with any other you desire. Refrigerate overnight and remove cloves and cinnamon sticks before serving!
