Ol' McCreedy, it's a funny thing. I think an objective journalist can and probably should call the GOP leadership unpleasant, unprincipled, unwise, unmoored and unready, and I'm untempted to question someone who says so. But I do wonder whenever that's put comparatively. I guess because the comparison is assymetrical. Democrats probably are the sincerer, more realistic party but I wouldn't call them pleasant, principled, wise, grounded or capable.
I do put HuffPo in a category with FOX and MSNBC, in that I suspect it's whacked and don't really have enough interest to find out if its better or worse than I think.
I'd agree with Froomkin that's it more important to seek the truth than it is to be balanced. And I don't think a "hack" would criticize his own president that strongly.
You point out a bunch of instances that show not that Obama is secretive, but that the MSM isn't doing its job in uncovering potentially important issues. Do you expect Obama to reveal the details of private leader-to-leader negotiations? That would kinda ruin the diplomacy. Basically it sounds like you actually agree with Froomkin that the MSM isn't doing a good enough job covering the president.
And though he's done a lot bad, nothing Obama's done even comes close to the Bush administration's launching of a war under false pretenses. Again, you seem to agree with Froomkin on this point.
Dear lord, did he just brag about HuffPo's HEADLINES?? One of the most common complaints I've seen from readers is that half the time, the headlines are completely innaccurate and have nothing to do with the actual article. I actually enjoy reading their stuff, but if he thinks HuffPo's headlines are good, then he is seriously out of touch with his readers.
Mr Meyer:
Therein lies the rub: who are the "trustworthy sources" in today's hyperventilated (and highly partisian) times?
We'll be needing some links backing up the "serious stuff" you detailed, Juan. Not saying you're wrong—just saying that some background material, ideally from a trustworthy source, would be very useful.
Froomkin is seriously, seriously wrong.
So far, there have been countless episodes of dishonesty, incompetence and secretiveness in the Obama administration. A few have been reported by the mainstrean media: AP revealed Geithner's tax evasion; CNN informed about the Dodd Ammendment (the provision for AIG bonuses in the Stimulus bill). Others have been made public by Fox News: ACORN, Van Jones. But in general, this White House has succeeded in keeping the media busy with the "celebrity" nonsense, thus preventing the media from asking about any serious stuff.
For example, the media has reported nothing about those Russian nuclear submarines patrolling the Caribbean just off the U.S. territorial waters since Obama's inauguration. Washington journalists have no clue that Putin threatened Obama to send more nuclear submarines if didn't dismantle Eastern Europe's missile shield. Which Obama did. Dishonesty? Secretiveness? Incompetence?
The U.S. media reports nothing about Hugo Chavez's plans to build a dozen nuclear plants all over Latin America. The U.S. media reports nothing about the weapons race in Latin America, where Brazil just signed a major pact with France aimed at containint the very real threat of a Russia-Iran-Venezuela axis in the Atlantic. Dishonesty. Incompetence? Secretiveness?
How do you know whether this administration is less dishonest, incompetent and secretive than the last one, if you don't make any effort to find out?
Wow. The "Puffington Host" is devastating. Froomkin praised HP's headlines. Here's Isaac Chotiner's take:
"[o]ne of The Huffington Post's tricks is to link to a mainstream news story by means of a politicized headline. In this way, readers can get hard news even as it is spun for them; and in this way digital media like The Huffington Post can live off the MSM even as it denounces them."
Doesn't it always require more courage to critize one's friends, rather than one's enemies? If the press "failed to summon" sufficient courage during the Bush administration, how will they ever do so under an Obama administration?
You should have asked some follow-up questions, oh, I don't know, here--"The reason the press is doing better is that it's not faced with the same extraordinary challenge presented by the Bush administration. This administration, I'm happy to say, is not unprecedentedly and spectacularly dishonest, incompetent and secretive, and therefore doesn't require the kind of courage to cover that the Bush-era White House press corps, to its shame, failed to summon."
And probably here, too--"For instance, is it [sic] patently obvious that at this point in our history, the leading luminaries on one side of the American political spectrum are considerably less tethered to reality than those on the other side."
But that might have actually challenged his assumptions.

Tesla has been making a few waves in the media lately. Just after announcing that they would have no problem with other car companies using their electric technology in order to make the world a better place, it has been revealed that a new Tesla car is fast approaching.
The Tesla Model X – the company's answer to a greener SUV – will be available for purchase as early as 2015.
The first prototypes of the car are expected to roll out before the end of this year, so Tesla is really quite keen on getting the much anticipated Model X out there. (more…)
Well this is rather surprising.
You may have heard that car company, Tesla, has announced that they are 'opening up' their patented electric technology to anyone (or any auto manufacturer) who wishes to use their technology 'in good faith'.
This means that the company will not sue anyone who makes use of their technology to further the use of electric cars in the world.
"Tesla will not initiate patent lawsuits against anyone who, in good faith, wants to use our technology…[sic] our true competition is not the small trickle of non-Tesla electric cars being produced, but rather the enormous flood of gasoline cars pouring out of the world's factories every day," Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla said in a blog post. (more…)
We love ourselves a little Porsche action every now and then. And with the new Porsche Cayman GT 4 on the horizon, it's always nice to take a look at the other offerings in Porsche's beautiful range.
The Porsche 918 Spyder has long been a favorite by many. It's sleek lines and bug, bodacious body makes it a sports car that anyone would dream of having.
The Drive channel on YouTube regularly get to test drive cars like the 918 Spyder – and while we are insanely jealous of course, it's still pretty cool to see it in action, even if its only on camera. (more…)
Porsche's latest creation, the Cayman GT 4, is said to rival the existing Porsche 911 Carrera as well as the powerful Carrera S – and we must say, judging by these most recent spy shots, the Cayman looks dangerous. And we mean that in a good way.
The Cayman Gt 4 will be a powerful car, that much we know. What we also like is the sleek-meets-bulky look of the car that is basically yearning to be pushed to it's limit.
Some of the features we do know of include a new aero kit and bigger breaks. It also has larger, lightweight wheels, a lower ride height and, as you can see in the pictures, a striking rear wing and ducktail spoiler. Impressive. (more…)
We all know (hopefully) that using your mobile phone while driving is an absolute no no. Whether you are making phone call, sending a text or checking your social media, it is extremely dangerous to use your phone while you are operating a vehicle.
Sure, you might think that you are only taking your eyes off the road for one second, but one second is all you need to cause a terrible accident.
This is what Volkswagen tries to illustrate in their latest ad, promoting the responsible use of mobile phones while driving. And by responsible we mean NOT using your mobile phone at all.
The ad, which was first shown to people in Korea, integrated clever technology to really have a great on effect on the people. (more…)
So you're probably wondering what is so special about a loving son gifting his father a 1957 Chevy Bel-Air for his 57th birthday. Well, the fact that this has been a promise between father and son for more the 20 years and the way in which the dad reacts, will show you exactly why.
A long time ago, an 8-year old boy made a special promise to his father; he said that he will give him his dream car for his 57th birthday one day. That car was none other than the stunningly classic, Chevy Bel-Air.
So the years went by and while the father didn't expect a promise made by a young, innocent 8-year old boy to be kept, he had the surprise of his lifetime when he found out it was. (more…)
If there is one type of car that needs to be fast, it's a police car. Seeing as though they catch and chase criminals and all, one would expect these cars to be super fast.
However, locally our police cars aren't that fast. In fact, some of them are rather slow – not good at all if you are pursuing a criminal in the loose! But just because our local cars aren't ridiculously fast, doesn't mean that other country's police cars have to be slow too. In fact, this new police car from a small town in the south of England is anything but slow. (more…)
Since retiring from his job as a late night talk show host, Jay Leno has kept himself busy with a few things; most of them being cars. His all new, online-based tai show, 'Jay Leno's Garage' is a popular watch among many a petrol head.
This week, Jay has somewhat of a special episode in store for his viewers. He took on of Italy's most famous (and lets add, beautiful) races, the Mille Miglia.
And of course, him being Jay Leno and all, he did in utter style – in a classic, stunningly beautiful, Jaguar XK120.
The Mille Miglia, for those of you who don;t know, is an annual, 1000 mile race in Italy that stretches from Brescia to Rome and back. The first ever Mille Miglia was held in 1927 and was a full-on endurance race until 1957. However, in 1977 the race was reinstated as a 'regularity race' for vintage and classic cars. (more…)

All a man has in this world is his good name. The book of Ecclesiastes says that a good name is better than fine oil. Our reputations determine what others think of our character. We have a right, therefore, to defend our name against scurrilous and slanderous attack. When those we know cannot defend themselves, we must stand up and speak out on their behalf.
I generally try to avoid the gossip that is so often said and writing about Michael Jackson. Libraries of nonsense have been written about him, and now that he is tragically no longer alive, he cannot defend himself. In general I see no point in highlighting slanderous material about him by responding to it.
But several headlines recently caught my attention when I heard that a man who claims to have worked as Michael's bodyguard made the incredulous charge that Michael was a Nazi sympathizer. This kind of viciousness should usually not be responded to because it just gives it more credibility for the retelling. But the slander against Michael's name in this instance is so great that it deserves to be rebutted.
As is well known, I was Michael's Rabbi for two years. During that time, we discussed every subject under the sun. A great deal of it was captured in the conversations we recorded specifically for publication in the books that became The Michael Jackson Tapes and its follow up, Honoring the Child Spirit. In one of those conversations, Michael spoke of Hitler's mesmerizing oratorical skills. He said that oratory is in many ways one of the most effective tools that evil uses to manipulate others and thereby gain power. Michael argued that Hitler used many of the same techniques that showbiz performers use today in order to manipulate audiences and steer them toward evil deed. I was disheartened when the book was first published to see some newspapers highlight these comments of Michael completely out of context and misrepresent him as someone who could have admired Hitler. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Michael detested and despised anyone who would do harm to another human being, especially the Nazis who gassed six million Jews, one and a half million of whom were children. Michael loathed everything Hitler stood for. As I have consistently stated, Michael was a great friend of the Jewish people. He celebrated his relationship with the Jewish community and never shied from demonstrating how much he learned from Judaism through our conversations and friendship.
In one of our first meetings I gave him a mezuzah as a gift, which consists of a small scroll from the Torah that is affixed to the doorpost. I did not give it to him with the intention that he put it on his door as his was not a Jewish home. Nevertheless, Michael insisted that we put it on the front door of his rented home in Manhattan. A few weeks later he came with me to the Carlebach Synagogue in Manhattan one of the happiest days of the Jewish calendar, Shemini Atzeret, and told me later, as part of The Michael Jackson Tapes, that it was the happiest night of his life.
As the boy superstar of the Jackson 5, Michael had a Jewish tutor who traveled with him and helped to raise him whose name was Rose Fine. Michael spoke of her in The Michael Jackson Tapes with great affection and revealed to me that he and Janet covered many of his former tutor's expenses as she aged. In one of the conversations he says that as the group's plane landed in Germany, Mrs. Fine became agitated. Michael asked her why and she shared with him the horrors of the Holocaust. He was just a boy and it was the first time he had heard of the wholesale slaughter or Europe's Jews.
Later, I would take Michael to meet and converse with my dear friend, Nobel Peace Laureate Elie Wiesel -- arguably the greatest living Jewish personality -- who further shared with him the horrors of the Holocaust and the importance of reconciliation and love. Prof. Wiesel showed Michael boundless acceptance and affection, which Michael warmly reciprocated.
Michael's strong feelings for the Jewish community meant he was even prepared to suffer professionally for his love of Israel and the Jewish people. It is well-known that in 1993 Michael went to Israel on his Dangerous Tour where he performed for 160,000 fans in Tel Aviv. My dear friend Frank Cascio, later to become Michael's manager, accompanied him and he told me how much Michael loved being in the holy land. Less well known, however, is the following story.
In late 2000, a Jewish philanthropist called me and told me that Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon was coming to his home that night for a reception. He said it would be good for Israel if Michael would come there and meet with the prime minister. I turned to Michael, in the presence of some of his professional staff, and asked him if he would like to meet the Israeli prime minister. Michael immediately jumped at the opportunity and told me he would love to do so. However, the people who surrounded him at the time mentioned that it might not be a good idea. They said that Sharon was hated in many parts of world, especially in Arab nations. A photograph of Michael with Ariel Sharon could spark a significant backlash including a boycott of Michael's albums and music. Michael immediately dismissed their concerns and said that he felt very excited to meet the prime minister. A few minutes later we embarked in Michael's van and crossed town to the meeting. The pictures of Michael greeting Prime Minister Sharon, along with me and our dear mutual friend Uri Geller, appeared throughout the world. Michael's professional staff were correct. The very next day websites called for a boycott of Michael's music saying that he supported Israel's "hated" leader. However, Michael did not care. Michael loved Israel and the Jewish people and he was thrilled to meet someone of Prime Minister Sharon's stature.
Above everything else in our relationship, Michael was immensely sensitive to my family's Jewish observance and did everything to respect it at all times. When we would visit him at his homes and hotel suites, he would always order kosher food from local restaurants for us. He developed a taste for the cuisine of some well-known kosher restaurants and would often go there on his own after getting to know the restaurant through me.
The speech I composed for him, based on our conversations, that was delivered at the Oxford Union in March, 2001 -- one of his crowning achievements where he received a standing ovation and which, unfortunately, has yet to be released by his estate -- was filled with Jewish references and wisdom. Michael told me to leave it all in. As a Jehovah's Witness he felt an immediate kinship and bond with the Jewish people and their teachings.
Michael was an African-American male who told me that he and his family had experienced a great deal of discrimination in their lives. Surely it is adding insult to injury to accuse Michael of a racism that was never expressed through his actions and never felt in his heart.

Does anyone here suffer from ulcers.
If so, could you tell me what your symptoms are and what you are doing about it. Thanks. |
Follow-Up Postings:
well first, you get tested for Helicobacter pylori bacteria, the most common cause of peptic ulcers. IF that is positive, you are treated with antibiotics. What you don't do is to take acid suppressors for months on end. They should be for short term use only. My doctor thinks it was the constant use of Pepcid AC and the like that resulted in my having osteoporosis. What finally helped me was just to eat more sensibly and cut out what were the obvious stressors like tomato paste and cheese. I also try to elevate my head when I sleep, and I don't eat anything after dinner. That has pretty much cleared things up after years of suffering. I had acid reflux and since that caused the esophageal cancer that killed the previous owner of my house, I was really motivated to straighten up. |
I forgot to add that drinking aloe vera juice was very helpful as well |
- Posted by enjoyingspring (My Page) on Sat, Jan 24, 09 at 19:36
I started taking antibiotics today for my ulcer. Hope that will get rid of it. I have been suffering off and on for years with this but never did anything about it. |
Try caffeine free Diet Coke. No other brand seems to work for me ~ even the caffeinated Diet Coke does not work. I have had the testing and taken the antibiotics and the acid-reducers. I used apple cider vinegar for the longest time. Nothing works for me as well as the caffeine free Diet Coke. I stumbled onto the diet Coke thing. I never drank any kind of pop. I don't think it is good for us, and I wish there were something else I could find that works as well. But nothing ~ not the acid-reducers (which eventually stop working), not the vinegar (which actually worked pretty well for me) works as well as Diet Coke. A doctor told me once that the Coke might be replacing stomach acids, just as the vinegar had. Or it might be the carbon dioxide in the bubbles. Wishing well. Barbara |

I have mixed thoughts about this and I am trying to decide whether or not to keep it. I agree with the previous reviewer-this is a sage green rug. The color does not match the look on the website at all. It looks pretty but it is quite thin, not soft to walk on, and definitely needs some sort of carpet pad so that it does not slip
This rug is light moss green not the grey/green silvery colour in the photo. I would keep it except for the colour. It is good quality and the pattern is attractive. It would work best in a casual space like a sunroom. It is not very soft to walk on so it would not be ideal for a kids play space. It is very good value for the price.
I was expecting more plush but went back and read the specs and realized that is my own fault for not really reading it through. Though the thickness is less, it still does not disappoint. Wish I could use a traditional vacuum on it (with the roller bottom) but I have a standing electric sweeper that will suffice. The overall rug had a stink that dissipated after a couple days to our relief. Also the rug settled nicely and lies flat quite well. I feel lucky for an online rug purchase!
exactly what i was looking for...delivered as advertised, no surpises here....color , quality , flat weave, etc perfect...
very nice rug!! not a very comfortable material, but quality is great. very happy with my purchase
I love this rug. It's a thin wool carpet (very trendy right now) that holds its shape very well. I love it so much I would put it in all colors in other areas of hour home. Could not be happier with my purchase. A great buy
This is a great rug. Very stylish. I read all the reviews and it is a little scratchy, but perfect for a dining room. Looks great and brightens up room. Same rug sells for $605 on competitors site. I wanted the blue version but Overstock had the price listed as a "designer rug Jill Rosenwald" which makes price shoot up! Same manufacturer.
The rug looks like a patio rug not one for a living or dining area. It also wrinkles up quite easily. The edges are slighly curled, which may subside over time. If it were not so costly to ship I would sent it back.

- 1 pound mozzarella, grated
- 4 egg yolks
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute onions, garlic, and red pepper for 1 to 2 minutes. Do not let garlic brown. Add the tomatoes, oregano, and bay leaf to skillet. Let simmer until flavors blend, stirring occasionally every 1/2 hour. Stir in Parmesan, and remove bay leaf. Sauce is ready for lasagna to be made.
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large pot, boil water, and cook pasta close to al dente. In a large bowl combine the ricotta, salt, pepper, and Parmesan, and mix until well blended. Mix in egg yolks and set aside.
In a 13 by 9-inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce and cover with noodles. Spread a layer of ricotta cheese mixture over noodles. Top with mozzarella, another layer of sauce, and repeat. The third layer should be topped with sauce and mozzarella. Cover and bake for 40 minutes, remove cover and bake for an additional 25 minutes. Remove from oven, and let stand for 20 minutes.
To serve, cut into squares, and serve with drizzled marinara sauce.

A few comments though...
There isn't enough sauce. Make more.
I don't know if they meant dried or fresh oregano, it's way too much if it's dried.
I used no-boil lasagne noodles, I can't see any difference.
Anyway, it's just terrific.
I ended up making 1.5x the sauce with *way* more oregano for flavor. I made my lasagna with 4 layers rather than 3 (it stayed together really well!). The dish that I used to bake it took 3 noodles per layer, so with 4 layers I only needed 12 noodles, not 15. I also added a pound of ground beef. Due to the extra layer I also needed more cheese. However, the extra cheese would not have been needed if I stuck with the 3 layers in the recipe. The lasagna tasted great, didn't take that long to make, and stuck together really well. Will definitely become a staple in my house!

Greg Gorman: Beyond The Frame
For more than 30 years, legendary celebrity and fine-art photographer Greg Gorman has created images for l.a.Eyeworks. The campaign is noteworthy for its longevity and the instantly recognizable style of the pictures themselves.
This Article Features Photo Zoom |
Performance artist John Sex |
DPP: You've kept the look consistent over the course of a campaign that has bridged the digital revolution.
Gorman: I'm shooting everything digitally now with a Canon EOS 5D Mark II. Earlier, I was using a Hasselblad loaded with Panatomic-X; then when that film was discontinued I went to Plus-X. I've always liked very sharp and fine-grained images. That's very much my style. This campaign has been a great avenue for me, not only in terms of creative expression, but also in terms of getting a large body of work out there—a full-page ad in Interview every month to go along with the other work I was shooting for that magazine back then.
DPP: To have a recognizable style and a body of work with that look are the most important aspects of a successful photography career no matter in which genre of photography a person works. How do you light the portraits?
Gorman: Everything is lit with a spot grid, usually a 20º on the person, sometimes a 30º, depending on their face, and a low spot grid angling up on
the thunder gray seamless. Occasionally, I'll have a grid on the hair, as well. Because of the very narrow spectrum of the spot grid, we need the separation from the background. I've always been a single-point light source kind of guy.
Singer, model and actress Grace Jones |
Gorman: I teach four workshops a year at my home in Mendocino, in Northern California's wine country. It combines my love of food and wine and teaching. We work on portraits and figure studies in the landscape. The first day of the workshop is in the studio. We focus on the relationship between key light and fill light, and how to work with reflectors and simple fills, bringing in black, as well as silver and white, to either add or subtract light. I work with negative fill as much as with positive fill. I use white or silver fill to open up the shadows a little bit and black to subtract light, to pull light out of a picture. I use foamcore and a lot of the big reflectors from Sunbounce. The two keys I want to get across to my students are how to see and interpret light and how to communicate with the talent. We also drink a lot of great wine and eat a lot of great food.
DPP: I think most photographers understand and work with positive fill to kick in light, but far fewer take advantage of black to create strong shadows. Your images have always had strong shadows, and your style and look have been an inspiration to countless photographers. Who has inspired you?
Gorman: I've always loved the early George Hurrell portraits, with their very strong, powerful key lighting. I've also always been a huge fan of Richard Avedon and Irving Penn. The first photographer who really inspired me—though our styles are radically different—is Helmut Newton. I saw his first show in Los Angeles, and it motivated me to the point where I thought, "Wow, photography is really cool." We went on to become very good friends later in his life.

5 things we learned from UCF football preseason camp
UCF football lost some star power this season, but gained much depth and experience at key positions. For the first time in a long time, UCF coach George O'Leary was able to run 88 players and four teams during preseason camp, which concludes today. Check out an overview of the key things we've learned so far:
1. The quarterback is a fluid position.
Coaches made it clear that redshirt freshman Pete DiNovo is the No. 1 quarterback — for now. DiNovo has been the most consistent executing the offense and managing the team from the sidelines to the huddle during offseason practice dating back to March, but the quarterback competition isn't exactly over, according to quarterbacks coach Charlie Taaffe.
"This is not in stone forever and ever," Taaffe said. "But the thing you gotta be careful of is you can't have a quarterback looking over his shoulder every play if he makes a mistake he's gonna get yanked."
Sophomores Nick Patti and Justin Holman are currently competing for the backup role.
2. Tight ends could be UCF's most unexpected weapons.
Much has been said and written about the Knights' talented receivers corps that stretches six players deep. But one of the greatest assets on offense is the combination of tight ends Justin Tukes and Kevin Miller. Both are big, athletic and physical blockers who can add another layer of protection to an otherwise young offensive line and help open up the run game. Tight ends coach Allen Mogridge said it's a strong possibility UCF could utilize more two tight-end sets this season and Miller noted that he's gotten more snaps this season.
"Those are guys that played a lot of ball this year and we need them to step up for us this year to have success," Mogridge said.
3. Will Stanback will have help.
High expectations are riding on the shoulders of sophomore running back Will Stanback, who is set to replace last year's leading rusher and current Jacksonville Jaguars running back Storm Johnson. Stanback averaged eight carries per game last season and will likely double that number. But he doesn't have to carry all the weight running backs like Dontravius Wilson, Cedric Thompson and Micah Reed ready to contribute. Several running backs saw multiple snaps with the first team during preseason camp and Wilson has been consistently productive dating back to the spring season.
4. Defense is the strength of UCF football
With nine starters returning, it's not a surprise that defense is the strength of this year's UCF team. The defensive line is much improved from last season, with veterans like Thomas Niles and Demetris Anderson returning. Troy Gray and Terrance Plummer add experience for the linebackers and all four starters in the secondary return. O'Leary said safeties Brandon Alexander and Clayton Geathers had a particularly successful summer showing off their reaction time.
The biggest impact of the defense so far, however, is how much they pushed the offense during the offseason, particularly the young quarterbacks who were forced to read a veteran secondary with the ability to successfully mask coverages.
5. Freshmen will challenge for jobs.
There are 20 seniors on the roster, but several freshmen pushed for jobs with strong performances this summer. Jordan Akins is expected to contribute as a combination receiver and tight end and coaches and player raved about freshman Jamiyus Pittman. Pittman, a 6-foot, 300 pound defensive linemen, showed he could overwhelm his counterparts during his looks with the first team. Tre'Quan Smith got several snaps on the second and third team and showed he will be a go-to receiver in the future.

Sesame Street – Me lyrics
Me! Everything I am is me!
The best thing I can be is
Me in my mirror
Me in my bed!
Me in the pictures I make in my head
Oh me!
What a thing to be is me
Utterly delicous!
And since there's no choice I am sure I and me agree!
There's nobody nicer, smarter, better, sweeter...
Can't you see... Than me!!

Daisy MD Care refurbishes dilapidated faces with a whirlwind of aesthetic offerings. A Clear FX microdermabrasion treatment sloughs away dead skin cells from facial surfaces, helping them disappear into a vortex like cows from a tornado-ravaged prairie. The safe and effective treatment leaves fallow flesh alleviated of fine lines, sun damage, acne scars, enlarged pores, discolorations, and more. Oxygen therapy sinks purifyingly pure O2 into the skin, invigorating it from within and giving remaining skin cells the tools and motivation to build a vibrant new subdermal metropolis of hard-working, yet hard-partying cellular socialites.
A mineral sweet orange scrub smoothes away the rough patches where your sandals rub against your toes, followed by a hot-towel wrap. The inclusion of such perks in a pedicure can be both a blessing for your skin and a way to release pent-up stress from the week. Ruthie?s Nail Parlor specializes in these small breaks, performing pedicures and manicures for men and women. Gel or glitter polish, a foot massage, and moisturizing treatments all contribute to giving clients delicately soft hands and feet. In particular, during the gentleman?s manicure and pedicure, a technician buffs nails to a matte finish and massages in an almond scrub to remove dead skin and the leftover paint from when you got your foot stuck in a painter's bucket during a slapstick-comedy routine.
Spalon Lifestyle founders Philip De Vo and Jaclyne Le began studying skincare and relaxation therapies after quitting corporate jobs that left them feeling physically and spiritually depleted. Now, the duo of pampering proprietors jet-set around the world, sharing their stress-relief expertise at foreign salons and international trade shows. At Spalon Lifestyle, their home base, a skilled staff wields an arsenal of spa services to carry on their quest for tranquility, much like the extremely relaxed knights of King Arthur's massage table
Stylist Synphony presides over a chair at Simply Flawless Hair Salon, snipping up new looks and twisting hair into intricate braids. She elongates hair with glamorous weaves and treats clients to soothing massage conditioning treatments. The seasoned beautician also extends her expertise toward coloring services, including highlights and creative color.
More than 25 years ago, Kundan Sabarwal opened the doors of a modest 400-square-foot skincare spa in New Delhi, working diligently to gently and efficiently eradicate her clients' unwanted body hair through a blend of ancient techniques and modern indulgences. With a bit of hard-earned success, Ziba Beauty hopped the pond, eventually expanding to 17 locations in two U.S. states. Each studio embraces American style while retaining its overseas roots, amplifying faces and bodies with traditional Indian cosmetic adornment and hair removal. By rolling small loops of cotton thread over brows and other facial areas, threading specialists can remove pesky fuzz without harming the skin or skipping over fine hairs. For more sizeable zones, Sumita Wax, which was developed in India exclusively for Ziba Beauty, quickly sends errant hairs packing on the face and body. Artistic hands ink bodies with the ornate semipermanent designs of traditional mehndi, or cloak clients in sparkle with intricate art in a choice of 32 glitter mehndi colors and shimmering crystals, readying skin for special events better than a full-body tuxedo tattoo.

The American Red Cross is not designed to reach out to rural Alaska due to the fact many communities are off the road system from the rest of America. Also there are many different Alaska Native languages spoken in rural Alaska. Especially in Southwest Alaska, where the Yup'ik is spoken as a first language. Not to mention the way communications are done by the American Red Cross. It seems there is no after-hours assistance for emergency needs out here in the Bush. Each region in Alaska should have an office in the 12 regional hubs of Alaska that would better serve rural Alaska more efficiently.

The electrician who will be installing a 200Amp Square D QO panel (as an upgrade) is not very convinced that a whole house surge protector (WHSP) is worth it because he's seen many devices damaged due to surges despite the WHSP. I still want one just for added protection even though I will have point-of-use protection for the entertainment center as well as the computer equipments. He doesn't have one to recommend, so I told him that I would supply it to him when he does the panel installation next week. Now, the question is... which one?
I'm agonizing over following choices:
2) Eaton Complete Home Surge Protection (CHSPT2MICRO) from Home Depot. $60. 1890 Joules. 36000 Amp Max. Covers Appliances replacement cost (secondary to insurance). No mention of years (really?). Pros: higher protection, cheaper, local home center purchase, seemingly better warranty. Cons: need to be screwed to a knockout hole (need room outside of enclosure) or put inside the panel (use up precious room). 3. An apparently no-name brand Delta Surge Protectors out of Texus. I only heard of them after reading one post or two on GardenWeb. Pros: much cheaper ($150 total for a package including Lightening Arrestor, Surge Capacitor, and Data line protector); Highest protection of all three (2,000 joules and 60,000 Amp Max on the lightening arrestor). Cons: Also will take room either outside or inside the panel enclosure; Not sure if UL listed (uneasy about it); No damage warranty coverage (other than replacing the unit itself). What would you choose? Or any better suggestions? Along the same line, one more question: I will be installing an expensive (to me) induction cooktop and would really like to have that one specifically protected. It needs to be hardwired. Is there anyway I can provide an extra layer of surge protection for this circuit itself? I went through Square D QO circuit breakers and could not find one that integrates the surge protection. Sorry about the long post. Thank you for reading. |
Follow-Up Postings:
A good homeowner's policy is probably the best "surge protection" you will find. The thing about these devices is that there is no way to know if they actually do protect anything in a given instance. You could possibly install all three of the devices you list and have a so-called surge immediately after- then you notice that your new cooktop doesn't work. All you know for sure is that there was an unusual event and that your cooktop failed afterwards. You don't know if (A) the #$%^& protector is worthless. (B) the protector saved every other electric device in your house from damage. (C) the cooktop just failed and the strke had nothing at all to do with it. I have a unit similar to the Square D model. The primary reason I have it is so I can illustrate to my insurance agent that I have taken "reasonable steps" to prevent damage as required by the wording of my policy. |
- Posted by ronnatalie (My Page) on Thu, Oct 27, 11 at 7:37
Much as I am a Square-D fan, I'd probably go with the Eaton. |
Having a whole house surge protector does not eliminate the need for point of use protection. |
I agree with all that was said above. Thanks guys for confirming! The local HD does not stock any WHSPs, so I just placed the order on the Eaton. I can still return it if I change my mind before the installation, but it appears to be a good choice. |
"The local HD does not stock any WHSPs" Try an actual electrical supply house. HD only stocks things it can move quickly in volume (and cheap). |

For example, we use MySQL and not mysql because MySQL is how the developers reference it. I believe we standardized on that out of respect for the developers. I am fully behind displaying the name of the package in the same manner as the developers do. -- Randy

Netflix Loses 800,000 Subscribers After Qwikster Gaffe
Re:what am I missing? why is this so bad for netfl (325 comments)
I opted to go the streaming route and I'm exactly in this spot right now (wishing I did the disc thing instead). I sorta was hoping we'd see something change in the months since the announcement with the addition of more content on streaming, etc, but its just not there yet. And unfortunately, I never watched enough discs to justify any of their DVD plans (redbox is much more cost effective for me) so over the last couple weeks I've been giving serious consideration to parting ways with Netflix altogether and looking other alternatives for streaming and movies (including, just doing without).

The Black Cat, U Street Corridor

Washington , D.C.
Tel: 202 667 4490
Washington , D.C.
Tel: 202 667 4490
Concierge.com's insider take:
The Black Cat is hipster ground zero in D.C. The music venue has an impressive pedigree: Foo Fighter Dave Grohl is an investor, and it has played host to a veritable who's who of musicians from Pavement to Modest Mouse to the White Stripes. Downstairs in the Red Room bar, the vintage-clad masses sip Pabst and play pinball, while the upstairs venue alternates between indie rock shows and the occasional dance night. Try to catch Mousetrap, the club's legendary Brit-pop party, held the second Saturday of each month. Popular bands tend to sell out, so be sure to check the club's Web site to get tickets in advance.
Open Mondays through Thursdays 8 pm to 2 am, Fridays and Saturdays 7 pm to 3 am, and Sundays 8 pm to midnight.

Hello, my name is Ashleii. I am almost 15 and going into grade 10. I am with my byofriend, and have been for 9 months. I am figured to be around 26 weeks pregnant and I have not had an ultrasound. No one knows that I am pregnant except for a few close friends and my boyfriend. My parents or family members do not.
Right now my boyfriend and I are considering abortion. But this is something I don't know if I want to do or not. I know I am young, and still have a lot of life ahead of me, but I am just really stuck on what to do.
We went to the Pregnancy Crisis Center today and got to talk to someone, and she is going to make an appointment for us to go see a doctor about abortion.
I do want to talk to my boyfriend some more before making my decision set in stone.
It would really help if I could have someone to talk to, for advice, information, or even just as a friend to talk to.
Thanks for the help.
Hi Ashleii. I honestly couldn't imagine what you are going through right now. It's gotta be so hard. I am going to be 30 in Nov and sometimes feel overwhelmed being preg, and knowing a baby is coming soon. Honestly no one can tell you what to do, its going to be something you have to do yourself. If you think you are 26wks along, that is more then half way through. I dont know how it is where you are, but I don't know of any places that would do one that far along. I think a baby is considered viable (able to have a chance living outside the womb) around 28ish weeks. Is there some type of clinic where you and your boyfriend could go to see a dr? Have you considered adoption as an option? Would your parents be understanding, and help you? You are still really young, and definitely have your whole life ahead of you. Any choice you make is going to stick with you for the rest of your life. I had an abortion when I was about 19 and still think about it from time to time, but I have now have 1 little boy and a little girl on the way and couldn't be happier. I hope you are able to go to the doctors and see how things are progressing and then are able to make the right choice for you. Good luck

Unseasonably warm weather is expected to bake the Valley this week. The high temperatures Tuesday through Friday could reach 110 degrees or more; the normal for this time of year is 103.
National Weather Service already has issued a heat advisory for Tuesday and Wednesday.
There is little chance of precipitation, as the high-pressure system that is raising the temperature also is drying out the air.
Already in 2007, there have been 27 days with a high of 110 or greater. This is one day short of the record, set in 1979 and 2002.

Paddy Davitt, Norwich City Writer
Monday, September 1, 2014
Neil Adams has done the maths and Norwich City's squad is hitting his targets after a solid start to life back in the Championship.
Adams knows two points per game will push the club firmly to the front of the pack chasing Premier League promotion after City headed into the first international shutdown with 10 points from their opening five league games, despite failing to cash in to full effect against Bournemouth.
"We'd have settled for that return at this stage," he said. "Of course I would have liked 15 points, and we tried to do everything we could to get the win against Bournemouth, but I just said to the players we are a touch disappointed because we have only drawn a game. That is a good sign because you don't want to come in high fiving each other when you have taken a point at Carrow Road. It needs to be win, win all the time here and we know if we don't then we have let points slip. We know how tough it is but, two points per game, I would certainly take that for the rest of the season because it would mean we are right up there challenging at the top."
Adams admitted City failed to scale the heights of previous league wins at Carrow Road this season against a well-drilled Bournemouth.
"Listen, you'll get games like this one and Bournemouth is a good team who look to dominate the ball," he said. "There will be different tests to them this season.
"I spoke to Eddie (Howe) after the game and he said, 'You've got a good team there' and I said to him, 'Your team is not so bad as well.' I don't think that game would have been out of place in the Premier League, certainly the way both teams tried to keep the ball and how they looked to move it. It was two teams who can pass and are comfortable moving that ball around the pitch.
"You see a lot of games where you get two or three passes and then a turnover and the cycle is repeated with a lot of long balls.
"You saw two teams here who like to get it down and play. That is probably why you wouldn't say it was a thrilling game because it wasn't end-to-end.
"We were pleased how we got on top in the second half and if there was one team who would have got the second goal it would have been us."

Negative , negative , negative. Hughton Mark2. One lapse of concentration??? What about the other 45 minutes? No guts, not enough fire in the belly. Even clubs like Brentford and Rotherham have more spirit. Premiership club? Give me strength.
Monday, September 1, 2014
The biggest negative was failing to shake up the team and formation after they got the equaliser on half-time . With Grabban neutralised by his ex-team-mates , and the sides now level it was time to shake things up hard , and that didn't happen .
Monday, September 1, 2014
Totally agree Vic, Russell Martin is no centre back and is caught ball watching far too often, that led to the goal against on Saturday. Likewise, he is unable to pass the ball out of defence and as a result we were being closed down far too often leading to Ruddy booting the ball up field only for Bournemouth to pick it up. I am not even convinced that Martin is that good at right back for the same reason but at least we have Cuellar to come into the side and watching him last Tuesday, he seems to be very comfortable on the ball and made some decent forward passes. The big problem is his lack of pace so playing him with Turner may still give us problems. A quick footed centre back in the mould of John Polston would not go amiss.
Monday, September 1, 2014
Sorry but if Adams is happy with our back four then he can forget about being near the top of this division. They look slow and extremely vulnerable and will never last a full season without getting caught out on numerous occasions.

I have a couple of plants of Devil's Walking Sticks. They have been doing well for a couple of years but this summer they haven't grown any foliage. They're about 6 feet tall and usually do well, does this plant have a dormant period? I live in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Follow-Up Postings:
This plant should leaf out every year. In fact I don't know of any deciduous plant of eastern North America that would have a dormant period lasting all or most of summer. There are some that leaf out really late, and a few that start to drop leaves really early, but none that should stay leafless all summer. Around here Devil's Walking Stick is in full leaf and has been for months. I don't have any guess what might have happened. |

OK, I'm in the market for a new cell phone. My last one was crap (maybe that's why it wound up in the toilet.) When I "upgraded" to it a couple of years ago, I suddenly started losing calls left and right. So now that I have to get another, I'm looking for opinions on the best ones. The lady at the Cingular store recommends Nokias for holding reception. There are SO MANY others on the market though, I'm just having a tough time deciding. Some have cameras, video, MP3s... The choices seem endless.

I don't have worms but apparently my body isn't convinced. At least, that's how my allergist described why my eyes water, my nose runs and my throat itches. Apparently our ancestors had a whole lot more parasites than we do today and that kept their immune systems busy beating off infection. As our society and bodies got cleaner, apparently our immune systems got bored and started looking for new enemies to fight. Now, instead of fighting worms, it's patrolling for pollen. Ironic, huh? Anyway, DO YOU HAVE ALLERGIES?

I see SpencerAmber has a new avatar. With all this talk about Christmas music, I knew it was a matter of time before someone started. Turkeys, I can see, it is November. But isn't it a little early for Christmas? I'm not telling ya'll what to do now. But am I the only one who gets a knot in their stomach and starts feeling panicked when they see Christmas stuff out? I haven't done a lick of Christmas shopping yet and I know the expenses are coming up and --- (fighting for breath here...) Seriously, doesn't the idea of an upcoming Christmas stress anyone else out?

This morning stinks! I was expecting an important phone call so I put my little cell phone in my back jeans pocket to make sure I didn't miss it. That was all well and fine until I ran to the bathroom. Needless to say, in retrospect, the back pocket is not a good place to carry a cell phone. I fished my little phone out as quick as I could, shook it and smothered it with papertowels. It seemed to be working -- for about 30 seconds. As I watched, the digital display seemed to vanish before my eyes.
