I just wanted to post and say that this has been a gift from God. Although my acne is far from clear, it's coming along very well. When I started the Regimen, my skin was pimpled, and bright red. The acne really stood out, and I don't use make-up; so it was really embarrassing. I stumbled upon this website. Since starting the Regimen, my redness has mostly disappeared, although my acne is still here, it's less noticeable and rapidly disappearing. Thanks sooo much for changing my life!

Thanks for sharing your knowledge of what works. I've been on your program for two weeks and it's very effective...the purpose soap is the best.

Hi Dan,
Just a thank you for your website and concern. Last year, my 12 yr-old son had begun to suffer with mild acne. It was beginning to progress with each month that went by. After trying prescription medicine and OTC acne products,with no success, I found your website. The success stories gave me confidence to have my son try out your products.
It took a full three months (even though his acne was mild it was resistant), but his skin is now basically clear. What a difference! He is a very happy teenager now.
I want to encourage new members to persevere with the products. My son had difficulty at first seeing results and keeping exactly to the regimen. He had some setbacks learning what would work for him, but I encouraged him to not give up. Family and friends are now complimenting him on how clear his skin looks.
Again, thank you Dan, for caring for people hurting with acne. You will be in my prayers.A joyfilled mom

I'm 21. I've had acne since the age of 11. It started small but blew up by the time I was 12. Ever since then I've had to battle with 1-4 pustules plus tons of tiny little bumps and proto-zits that eventually crop up every single day.
I've tried nearly everything. I have spent thousands:
- Did the laser light treatment thing- $3000
- Subscribed to Proactiv for two years- $400+
- Tried almost every over the counter treatment- $200
- Various perscription treatments- $200
- Birth control (made my face worse)- $60As you can see, i've spend nearly $4000 on acne treatments. I stumbled on your website one day after a particularly frustrating bout of acne and decided to order the BP gel and your gentle facewash. I started the regimen when they came in the mail and my face was noticeably clearer within three days. I'm continuing and every morning I wake up to clearer skin.
Per your advice I have stopped picking and this has also done wonders.
God bless you. Seriously. Thank you for offering an affordable solution THAT ACTUALLY WORKS. It's a godsend.

I normally do not ever take the time to post about products I have purchased online, but The Regimen deserves an AMAZING review. My acne has never been horrible. Usually, I would have a few cystic pimples pop up here or there... the problem was they would always last for weeks! Not only did they last a long time, but they left awful hyperpigmentation as well.
My friends thought I was being over dramatic about my acne, however, we all know that people with perfect skin do not understand the emotional toll even a few pimples give us! I never felt comfortable leaving my house without make up on because of my lingering red marks and uneven skin tone. I had lost all hope in my skin. One night when I was feeling down I youtubed acne success stories. I watched about three videos and they all led me to you! That night I had done all the research I needed and I purchased the Regimen. In a week, my skin tone was already better...and has been getting better every single day since. I am more confident because of you.
I cannot thank you enough for the time and effort you put in to your website, your products, and everything you do to help others.
Truly, you are a blessing and I am inspired by your passion!

I want to thank you first, for your product.
I'm almost 19 now, and I've had to deal with acne probably since I was around 15.
Before this I've tried everything from Proactive, to herbal and all natural products, to any brand on the drugstore shelves; with no successful results.And of course the increasing acne led to the use of more and more cover-up and concealers. That never helped, but by then I was trapped.
So finally I discovered your products from a friend who had visited. I noticed how nice her skin looked since I last saw her, about two months, (she had acne too) and she said she used the stuff from acne.org. Just the benzoyle and moisturizer.
Long story short, I followed closely your tips and directions and after just the first night of using I noticed a difference! It wasn't perfect yet of course but never had I been witness to such results. And from then on I knew it was only going to get better.Now I don't have to wear any concealer, coverup, foundation, or whatever to hide anything. I can workout, hangout, go to work and feel completely free.
And I even got my sister to use it too, though hers is barely noticeable.
I just use the treatment now with a different moisturizer but its the only product I will remain loyal to. So you can bet that I will continue to recommend this to anyone who suffers from acne mild or severe, because it WORKS.
I think it's a blessing that you came up with this and are able to help so many people, including myself.
Please don't change your product ever!!
Your customer for life,Hannah California
I am a 40 year old mother of three that has been dealing with cystic acne for years.
I was at the end of my rope with my skin and it was getting worse every day. My chin area would break out so badly that it would physically hurt to smile. I found a video on you tube talking about the acne.org and was excited to see the girls result. I was a little hesitant because I have spent HUNDREDS of dollars on other skin care programs that just didn't work. I had no other options so I figured why not. I will never look back. My skin cleared up in DAYS!
I have had a few breakouts try and ruin my day but they cleared up within 24 hours. That has NEVER happened to me before. For the first time in years, I am excited to wake up and look in the mirror and not see huge, painful acne. Thank you Dan so much for breaking the code on acne.I am forever in your debt.

I never really had any acne problems when I was a teenager, it wasn't until I started working for at a coffee shop at the age of 21 that my acne started. I'm definitely not an expert on the composition of the skin, but I think the bad airflow from the coffee shop may have altered the pH in my skin, it's the only reason I can think of why it started around the same time I began working there...
Anyways, it was pretty awful … my whole face was covered with acne. When I left the coffee shop, I went to work at a spa. The estheticians loved to work on my skin since it needed so much work. They tried everything, from glycolic acid peels to microdermabrasion, facial after facial. Nothing worked. I felt awful, ugly and I never wanted to go out of my house. Then one day, in my frustration, I started crying and I prayed. The next thing I knew, I felt I had to go online and just type "acne" in the search box. I did and the first site that popped up was acne.org. I read everything on the web site and ordered the supplies to begin the regimen. One month later, my skin was completely cleared up.
It's been 2 years now and I still use the regimen. I get an occasional pimple once in a while, but it usually clears up within 1-2 days. I am so thankful for this regimen! And I'm really happy to see all the new products coming out. I have told so many people about this website and will continue to spread the knowledge.
Thank you SO much! :-)Kristelle Raleigh, NC
Dan, You are the man! I have struggled with severe cystic acne for nearly 10 years now and every day of it has been a struggle. I have used everything from over the counter products to proactiv and even accutane. I think Proactiv was helping for while, but it was so inconsistent causing terrible breakouts every few months that I just had to stop using it. I only wish I had stopped sooner and found your products faster. I have been on your regimen now for four weeks and I am finally clear for the first time in years. I still have very minimal scars, but those are fading extremely fast and I could not be happier with your products. I absolutely love the moisturizer and jojoba oil. They seem to be the perfect balance for my skin. Please, do whatever you can to make your products more aware to the general public because I seriously just got my life back. To anyone struggling with acne, PLEASE give this regimen a shot. It's the only thing that has ever worked for me!! I'd shout this from the rooftops if I could!!!
Thanks again Dan---Keep going!Brian Seattle, Wa

Margaret Haynes of City Council said, "Pet waste is one of the biggest polluters that we have that's encumbering our clean water..."
What a joke. I guess Margaret doesn't remember the 3 million gallons of raw sewage released into Hewletts Creek in 2005, over 4.7 million gallons total over 2 years and then how The City challenged the fine imposed by the Division of Water Quality.

"I personalized this thank you card with my, my husband and our daughter's names. The paper was textured - which I loved - but may not work for some people depending on the pen you'd like to use. The colors were beautiful. Truly a lovely thank you card."
"Ordered these (not as "thank you" but as a "hello!" note) for my 11 year-old niece's b-day. She's not into flower and typical girly stuff, so this design was perfect for her. It came out beautiful. I do wish, though, that TinyPrints would offer boxes for their products. The "presentation" factor for the stationary as a gift isn't great. I'm going to pull it all out of the plastic & wrap in a ribbon, but wish there was a proper sized box that I could buy in which my niece could keep the stationary."
"These cards come in a beautiful sage green color with pink accents. Our shower had a bird theme so I used these as thank you notes. The paper was of heavy quality with a smooth finish-- high quality and a great choice."
"This note card is super cute with the right amount of outdoor fun and girly flair. I have received numerous compliments on the style of this personalized card. The paper is nice and thick and the speedy delivery from tiny prints is always appreciated!"
"Looks exactly like on the picture. The quality of the print and paper is great. So happy to be able to send thank-you cards matching my baby shower invitations."

At what magical age does an "appropriate" amount of maturity and responsibility settle into a young man that society can suddenly trust him with a firearm? That's an important question. When you pick an age that you can support restricting the rights of all citizens in society, you support the Brady Campaign in its efforts to answer the question, for everyone, as never.
In other words, you support the Brady Campaign in passing gun control laws in Oregon.[/QUOTE]
As I understand it , anybody who believes guns are for self defense and not for mayhem and general carnage in the schools and in public is a member of the Brady Campaign. Anybody who believes that guns could be dangerous in the wrong hands and that safety and common sense should prevail when dealing with children is a liberal, commie, pinko unAmerican traitor?
I am a responsible adult and a combat veteran who fought for our rights, not just running my mouth about them. I am a member of the NRA and a responsible father and grandfather. I base my judgement on decades of owning guns and working with children on a daily basis.
I do not subscribe that the Second Amendment gave us the right to be irresponsible in how we use and care for our weapons. It gave us the right to have them, not to use them without due regard for public safety. My last comments in this topic.

Mick—thanks for your Paranoid Penguin columns; I always open my new issue of LJ right to it to see what you've got in store each month. The "Hardening Sendmail" article [LJ April 2002] was another winner. I just wanted to point something out regarding your recommendation not to run a sendmail dæmon if only sending mail. I used to do just that but found something unfortunate: if a send attempt fails, then sendmail could queue it for later delivery. If the sendmail dæmon wasn't running, well, "later" would never come. I wouldn't know about the failed delivery (especially without the usual informative messages from sendmail after four hours, and after five days). So, I run sendmail (postfix, actually). If you've got a better solution, I'd love to hear it. And I'm sure other readers would, as well.
Mick replies: Thanks for the kind words! You're right, if sendmail isn't running as a dæmon, queued mail will remain queued indefinitely. I should have mentioned that common practice is to set up sendmail to be run from cron periodically with the -q flag. For example, this sample crontab line (adapted from one in Olaf Kirch's Linux Network Administrator's Guide) invokes sendmail in "flush queue" mode every 15 minutes:
0,15,30,45 * * * * /usr/sbin/sendmail -q
Obviously, that has to be in the crontab of an account authorized to run sendmail this way—usually root. And depending on how much outbound mail you deal in, you may not need to run sendmail every 15 minutes—hourly may suffice. Postfix most definitely rocks, by the way. And my friends who use qmail *really* like qmail.
I was surprised to see your article about P3P in the April 2002 issue of Linux Journal. Since 1999, P3P has been shown to be orthagonal to privacy, despite claims made to the contrary. I don't really see that the W3C has done a lot to allay fears of P3P. P3P is overly complicated and is geared toward collection of user information, not protection of it. The only serious difference between P3P and non-P3P sites is convenience in giving away your personal information. It's not even a legal help: just because a company does something illegal does not mean the average Joe can do anything about it.
The protocol could be greatly simplified and need not have any information about the user at all. Also, even if the protocol forces contact information to be given to the user, there is no easy method for the browser to determine its validity, and it is no guarantee the company will listen. In other words, "same ole same ole", but more complex. A protocol that really is designed to protect users' privacy will never need to know anything about users except their privacy preferences. There is absolutely no need for other information, yet P3P includes a large amount of detailed and personal user information. You have to ask yourself why this has been made so complex and so heavily geared toward data acquisition.
Larry replies: I have already received comments to the effect that P3P doesn't ensure privacy. Certainly nothing I said was meant to indicate that it is a perfect solution to the problem. I just thought then, and still do, that automated privacy protections are far more protecting of the average internet user than the "click here to read our privacy policy" that is so typical nowadays. Whether people will use even the automated tools, or whether companies will honestly comply with their promises, are open questions. I do know that if a web site promises me privacy through its, and my, P3P settings, and it subsequently releases private information about me contrary to my express preferences, I'll sue. And if an average-Joe user comes to me with a situation like that, I'd consider handling the case as a class action lawsuit and demand attorney's fees.
I have been a Linux user since Red Hat 4.2 and picked up my first LJ about two years ago. I have always poked about in all the different directories and have always wondered "What is really required here?" I mean, what is the minimum requirement for a working Linux distribution, without any user apps, just something that loads, prompts for a login, then takes you to a shell prompt and lets you log off or shut down. No lynx, no elm, no sendmail, no anything. I have always thought it would be a great personal educational undertaking for myself to attempt to create my own distribution...but I've no idea where to begin.
—Blake Tullysmith
Yes, you can build a tiny distribution with just a kernel and a shell. You might want to start with Brian Finley's "Brian's Own Embedded Linux" and remove software from it. BOEL fits on a floppy, and two articles about it appear on embedded.linuxjournal.com. See www.linuxdevices.com/articles/AT9049109449.html and www.linuxdevices.com/articles/AT5974781081.html.
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Together Forever (Hiddles x vampire!OC) Chapter 4Thomas had ended up getting breakfast at the place Alice had recommended. He then explored London a bit more before he met his partner Nikki at that restaurant he had had lunch with Alice at the day before. Unfortunately, Nikki hadn't learned much more than Thomas had. They decided to lay low for a few days so they wouldn't alert the vampires in the city of their presence (using code words, of course, so that any vampires who may be in the area would not realize what they were really talking about). So the two hunters would simply stay quiet and keep their eyes open, especially at night.Alice entered the restaurant at the exact time Thomas had asked her to. She closed her parasol and looked around excitedly for her dear friend, but was saddened at what she saw… She saw Thomas sitting at a table with another woman. This woman had the strangest clothes that Alice had ever seen! But that part was unimportant. What was important was that she was sitting with Thom
Together Forever (Hiddles x vampire!OC) Chapter 3Alice happily made her way down the street the next morning. In one hand she held her parasol, and in the other she clutched a letter to her breast; she was terrified she might drop it. She had asked one of her tutors to help her write it, but made him swear not to tell her Master about it. It was for Thomas, for he had asked her to write him the night before. Within the letter was the suggestion of seeing a play that night.She cut through the park on her way to the inn Thomas was staying at. She loved the park; it was an excellent place for people-watching. As she walked, she spotted something rather interesting on one of the benches; it was Thomas. As she got closer, she noticed that he was actually asleep! His body was slumped back against the bench, his head tilted over the back edge a bit. One of his hands rested on his knee, the other hanging over the back edge as well. The most interesting bit was that his legs were spread indecently. It caused a deep blush to creep across Alic

You know that feeling where you're so happy that life seems surreal at a certain moment, and you can't seem to understand, or put your finger on exactly why you feel this way; that's what it was for me, the last time I jumped into the sea.
The last time I ran off the sun bleached dock. The last time I could stand, shoving my best friend Leif into the teal Caribbean Sea; without getting dehydrated and fainting.
Now, my skin is cool and wet, if it should even be called skin. I have pale blue and silver scales embellishing my back, chest, hands and even on the sides of my face. My body has evolved and adjusted to underwater life; legs have been replaced with a fish-tail and fins. My fingers now have a thin layer of webbing between them.
I'll never be the same again, I've transformed into a creature of the sea; trapped, doomed to die in the deep, Never to feel the wind or the warmth of the sun, the arms of a loved one.
I am now a mermaid bound by the sea.

Keep America Beautiful And Dr Pepper Snapple Group Put Sustainability In Action With Recycling Bin Grant Program

Lost the first set 6:2, overall they're being outplayed fair and square. Zheng can't do anything from the net, Petra's forehand side is getting molested and her serve doesn't mean that much in doubles. Not a nice performance by any stretch. Hopefully things will get better in the 2nd.

some girls can take some jokes seriously...
don't joke about her:
=being stupid
="your girlfriends are cute"
some girls can take some jokes seriously...
don't joke about her:
=small boobs
=being stupid
="your girlfriends are cute"
Isn't that just...basic politeness? I mean, I wouldn't go around asking girls about their periods...
Things you can't joke about with guys:
*Penis size
*Skill in bed
*Hard-ons at inappropriate times
*Being stupid
*Penis size
*Being bad in bed
*"Your boyfriends are hawt*
*The fact that they can't get laid
*Homosexuality jokes
*Did I mention penis size?
Yeah. And you know, it's really hard when I want to make a joke about penis size and he gets offended. It puts me in a bad mood for when he jokes about my breasts or period.
Wait? Making a list like this would mean that there's actually stuff you can joke with girls about out there...
Damnit DE! Not again. Almost all of my jokes consist of suddenly, unwanted erections.
"Hi, there I represent the Foundation for a ... you again?! Damn you Penis!"
"Yes ma'am, I'd like to make a donation...No. No no no. That's not...I have a gun in there, I swear!"
"I can't tell if these pants fit. Every time I relax a little bit, they tighten up; it's like there's a ghost pulling on them...there it is again!"
Well, I gotta say it: I still attest that "penis size sensitivity" comes from women's scrutiny, not just men's innate lack of security. Nothing says "ouch" like "Everything in our society is about ultimately about sex. Oh, you there, don't develop a complex or anything, but you have a tiny dick and can never do anything about it for the rest of your sad, disappointing life. Sucks to be you!"

I'd like to die with the songs I love stuck in my head. I hope to make the most of these hollow bones we become.
I raise a toast to the the souls that sang all along. I've been gathering friends to just to make some sounds,
before the ship goes down, I've been making amends by making the rounds before the whole world ends
[Chit Chat Specific Forum Rules] // Last Update - Friday March 13, 2009
size doesn't matter that much(I'm not talking about myself). Try making fun of my penis size. I'll just laugh.
I got a friend with a big ass. It's so funny so we're always making jokes about it. We're close friends so it's alright. If it weren't we wouldn't be joking about it. Same goes with anything else on that list. Seems to me if you have say small boobs, and have had them most of your life, wouldn't you be used to jokes about it?
i jk about that stuff with girls and it seems to be k... maybe just girls around u and i am a guy... a normal one and not homosexual if it makes any difference also i jk about that guy stuff too with girls and guys so....

Being bad in bed is a serious problem, he should see a doctor! a HOT doctor!Things you can't joke about with guys:
*Penis size

*"Your boyfriends are hawt*
*The fact that they can't get laid

Joking aside, your only not allowed to joke about that kinda shit if he's insecure about it in the first place. I am moderately sure my GF has made jokes about EACH of those situations right there... and I wasn't bothered (cause I know she IS just joking, she's got nothing to complain about :P ).
P.S. and frankly, I'm a bit of a homophobe and those jokes still don't bother me too much. As long as they don't hit on me, I don't mind them.
I would do those jokes. Except if they really hurt her feelings. But if not, just go for it.
No problem with me.
No problem with me. Because I know the truth. ^^
Thats not a bad thing!
I can live with that. Most of the times I'm even some sort of rl stupid.
*looking down* Nothing to fear.
Thats not true!
Ok, that one is mean.
If its the truth, its really mean. -_-
Freaks me out.
Reading between the lines: Your friend has a small penis, you make jokes about that, he cries, he does jokes about your small breasts, you cry.
I see. Arent relationships great.
I hate it every time my friends play the "we are gay jokes". Just freaks me out.

How epilepsy and treatment affects women, including hormone levels, pregnancy and the female reproductive cycle.
Epilepsy affects approximately one percent of the population and more than half of individuals with epilepsy are women. It is estimated that in the United States alone, more than one million women of childbearing age experience seizure disorders.
Epilepsy and seizure medications may affect contraception, pregnancy, hormone levels, and the female reproductive cycle. Similarly, hormonal changes can affect seizure control. Our adult epilepsy staff has the expertise to address the complexities of seizure management in women with epilepsy.
Pregnancy is an option for those with epilepsy, but special risks exist. Women with epilepsy, particularly when taking anticonvulsant drugs, have a slightly higher risk of having children with birth defects. The increase of birth defects may be decreased by taking folic acid supplements.
Please talk with your doctor before considering a pregnancy. Despite these concerns, you should not stop or reduce your use of anticonvulsant drugs during pregnancy. The risk to you and your baby from seizures is greater than the alternative risk of birth defects related to your medication. Frequent physician talks and visits along with tests of blood anticonvulsant levels throughout your pregnancy are a must.

Damaris Phillips' Top Tips for Making Biscuits and Gravy
by Maria Russo in Food Network Chef, November 25th, 2013Just in time for Thursday's Thanksgiving holiday, Food Network Star winner Damaris Phillips, a lifelong southerner with a knack for baking and the host of Southern at Heart, is demystifying biscuit making so that you can skip the store-bought tubes of dough and make your own buttery beauties at home. This Kentucky native is known for enjoying her biscuits with gravy for breakfast, and just last month she took the stage with fellow Food Network Star alum Justin Warner at the New York City Wine & Food Festival to fuse her classic recipe with another morning favorite: bagels and lox. She walked fans through the step-by-step of creating this hybrid breakfast while chatting about basic biscuit-and-gravy how-tos, like simple tricks for cutting biscuits and the importance of cooking the flour in the gravy roux. Read on below to get Damaris' top-six tips, then try her recipe for Sweet Potato Biscuits with Peppered Pork Loin, Apple Mustard Butter and Salad.
1. Don't worry if you don't have a fancy biscuit cutter at home; a round glass will do the trick.
2. There are two kinds of biscuits: flaky and cakey. Damaris prefers the cakey variety, as they're better suited for sopping up gravy, so consider this if you plan on serving your biscuits with gravy as well.
3. When making the roux for the gravy — the mixture of fat (here, butter) and flour — it's important to let the flour cook for a bit so it loses its raw flavor. The more you cook it, the darker the roux will be.
4. Opt for warm milk instead of cold when adding the liquid to the roux; this will help it better incorporate.
5. Pepper is a must when making traditional Southern gravy. Don't be afraid to use plenty of it.
6. To best serve biscuits and gravy, slice the biscuit open like a book, then flip it over, so the top and bottom sides are facing up and the insides are flush on the plate. You'll be better able to glide your fork through the biscuit this way once it's topped with gravy.

I am disappointed that Food Network eliminated Paula Deen. She made a mistake, she apologized, and she will not use the offensive language again. She gets dumped but yet Oprah makes a racial comment and receives an award from our President. These are double standards and why should Paula be punishe more than Oprah. She was a delightful person to watch. You have disappointed you did not support her thru an unfortunate mistake. I have lost all interest in your station and rarely watch it anymore. You have become boring and now the Chew is now my favorite cooking show since they are more real. Your loss.
I agree with you I'm done with this network!
Good luck Damaris your doing real good I loved your show but I'm done with this network they have double standards get rid of Paula but keep Giada with her behavior say what!!!
What did Giada do?
You must watch the Thanksgiving live show she was acting really strange. Like she was on something. Also very rude to Ina. Good luck!
Damaris just keeps getting better and better. Awesome choice of a new show host. I really enjoy watching her. She is entertaining and educational. I wish she would have been on TGL.
We have a valuable show with Southern At Heart. Chef Damaris is a joy to watch, and the dishes are fabulous! It's what she puts *in* things, and how she prepares them. And it's easier than you may think. So many good creations: Peppered Pork, HER chili, HER Mac-n-cheese (watch out, Alton. She may challenge ya to a Mac-n-Cheese throwdown, he he).
And–we learn so much, even in just one show. Onion Jam, Veggie Pot Pie, times & temps, sauces, granola, a little peanut butter in chili reduces acidity, Parfaits, Scones, Pot Roast sandwiches. YUM! And she's a good explainer. I wish more of the folks on twitter would see these Blogs, and write, here. (They do, on twitter.) Food Network–you've got a definite keeper, here.-
Crouton, That peanut butter trick in the chili..it makes perfect sense! I am dying to try that with my next batch of chili. She really is teaching and suggesting things to me that I had never considered previously.
I so agree she is really true to herself I hope she stays that way. Love her BIG SMILE! Not fake!
I want to know what Damaris is wearing for todays show the green shirt!!! Where is it from
It's a problem that I really care, I just started reading and I'm glad I did, thanks
I so agree she is really true to herself I hope she stays that way. Love her BIG SMILE! Not fake!

I don't like all the competitive shows. I enjoyed watching a true professional chef cook foods that I would like to try at home. I don't care about Paula Deen. Or Oprah. I just want to have fun watching a GOOD cook, not a Worst cook or a challenging cook (except Iron Chef, I loved that) make things my family would love and it would break any boredom for me in cooking. Food Network, you are totally missing the point these days. I am hanging in but am about to stop watching also. Go back to just showing us how the pros make wonderful dishes! That's what you started at and it worked. And that idea has not gotten old. The Chew? Hate it.
I have enjoyed her when I have been around to see. She had a recipe for Kentucky Derby sandwich and I'll be darn if I can find it anywhere in her recipes.
I really do not like the competitive shows they bore the daylights out of me. -
1. Don't worry if you don't have a fancy biscuit cutter at home; a round glass will do the trick.

text: The different types The Paso Fino is divided into three different types based on the show divisions used by the PFHA, Inc. (USA) and the horse's individual talent and movements, making the horse suitable for different usages. When choosing the right type a rider should be aware of his or her personal preferences and riding skills and have a clear idea of what he or she would like to do with the horse. The Pleasure HorseThe gaits performed are mildly collected Corto, mildly-collected Largo, and flat-footed Walk. Pleasure gaits are executed with mild collection, moderate extension, style, and willingness. The horse's head carriage is natural and relaxed. The gaits should be fluid showing no tendency to labor or become "strung out" Manners and obedience of the horse are particularly important. The horse should be controlled with minimal restraint and the rider should appear to be enjoying themselves. Thanks to their friendly and gentle disposition Pleasure horses are uncomplicated and easy equine partners under saddle and in daily handling. The Performance HorseThe gaits performed are collected Corto, collected Largo, and collected Walk. Performance gaits are executed with brilliant style, and collection. The horse is collected, fully balanced and exhibiting symmetry in flexion and extension. The extension is longer and the footfall not as rapid as shown in the Classic Fino gait. The horse should demonstrate pride, style, elegance and enthusiasm, along with good manners and ready response. The Performance type is highly suitable for the experienced rider who loves spirited horses with lots of power. The Classic Fino HorseThe only gait performed is the Classic Fino gait. Gait is fully collected, with very slow forward speed, very rapid footfall and stride is exceedingly short. The Classic Fino gait is an evenly spaced, four-beat lateral gait that is smooth, animated, exciting and executed with brilliance and style. Flexion and extension should be harmonious in all four legs. The horse must present a picture of symmetry and fluidness of motion. The horse must perform this highly collected form of the gait naturally and willingly. |

But I can tell you that it's an upgrade from the Xbox version, as it should be. It looks better, and it plays better now that the fielding works correctly now.
Overall, MLB 2K6 is a worthy replacement to the beloved MVP MLB franchise. While there are some occasional hiccups and glitches and the fielding is off, these are all issues that can be ironed out over the next year - the game is still pretty fun to play.
Is MLB 2K6 close to perfect? No. It's far from it. Beneath the little kinks, however, there is a solid, fun baseball game to be played and, in the end, isn't that what we all want?
New pitching and hitting dynamics make this a fun romp, but its next-gen worthiness is in question.
The replay value isn't very high for casual fans of the sport, and I suspect not even hardcore fans will spend copious amounts of time with the title.
Sure it's packed with drool-worthy game modes, interesting new features and a slick presentation but it's plagued by flaws too hard to ignore and visuals just not good enough to make this a game worth buying.
A solid baseball game and it's been beefed up in the audio/visual departments for the Xbox 360. It's not big on frills but it is loaded with modes, including online play.
Inside Edge is the most significant addition to the game, and we hope to see scouting play a part in the genre in the future. But control problems with baserunning and fielding, along with a lack of general polish, keep 2K6 from being the great game it's trying to be.
Deep statistics are offset by a clunky interface. A deep career mode is offset by annoying seasonal goals. Hi-res graphics are offset by frame rate issues. Great musics and stadium songs are offset by flimsy on-field sound effects.
Though you don't get much for your extra $20, the slight gameplay tweaks make the 360 version of MLB 2K6 the best choice if you've got both systems. [Jun 2006, p.78]
This version is certainly a little easier on the eyes, but it never really gets the bat squarely on the ball with the gameplay that is delivered. As a Cubs fan say, maybe next year. [Jun 2006, p.115]
As a game, MLB 2K6 feels more than competent, but it fails to excel. Much like last year's Cubs, it has its shining moments, but in the end you're left with the distinct feeling that it could have been so much more.
The apathetic presentation and a slew of gameplay bugs make it hard to enjoy Major League Baseball 2K6, which is otherwise a deep and feature-rich baseball simulation.
Where the game has been severely improved over its last title on the Xbox, on a next-generation system, the hardware is not effectively utilized to make this game a viable choice over its cheaper Xbox cousin.
Playing against a real person, the strength of the pitcher-batter face-off carries the game; playing alone, you're more likely to send this one down to the minors before the end of the season.
This remains a game with an awful lot of potential, but not much execution. It's still glitchy - this review doesn't cover more than a fraction of the issues I've seen - but underneath it all is a set of baseball ideas and mechanics that could easily produce a fantastic game in the future.
The graphics are sub par and the audio is nothing special; coupled with the occasional graphical glitches and bugs, the game ends up looking like it wasn't finished.
If you own either of [the console versions], you'd have to be crazy to buy this game for the 360, because all you get for the extra twenty dollars are some disappointingly jaggy graphics.
If you only have the Xbox 360 as your console, MLB 2K6 does play a fairly solid game of baseball, provided you have all your sliders in place. But for me, the best baseball game again this year is still 989's "MLB 06: The Show."
Activating the showboating feature gives you the chance to make a spectacular behind-the-back catch of a routine fly ball, but...the joys of fielding end there. When you aren't overrunning the ball, you're stuck in molasses trying to turn back to get it.
A severely flawed game that could have been far better had it undergone further testing. The freeze bug is absolutely crippling and has even caused retailers like EBGames and GameStop to reduce the amount of money they'll offer for the game in trade-in value.
What we basically have here is a glossed-over version of the game with very little addition and a $20 price drop, not to mention some horrible freezing problems that send this game to the showers.

5 Big Trades to Profit as S&P Tests Record Highs
Fomento Economico Mexicano
It's been a stellar year for Fomento Economico Mexicano (FMX), the $200 billion beverage stock better known as FEMSA. Shares have rallied more than 46% in the trailing 12 months alone. That strong price performance has been the result of the exact same uptrending channel that we're seeing in Google and the broad market right now.
FMX bounced hard off of trend line support earlier this week, indicating to waiting buyers that this stock can indeed still catch a bid at those lower levels. While shares have moved up a fair amount since that bounce happened, this still marks a lower-risk entry level for longer-term traders who plan on keeping shares for this stock's next few oscillations.
International markets have been correcting lately, so if you do take a position in FMX, use a tight stop.

BATON ROUGE, La - The Jarvis Green Foundation's Southern Louisiana Wine Tasting Gala, which benefits disadvantaged single mothers in low income areas, 200 attendees enjoyed an elegant night for a charitable cause. Patrons were greeted by Jester Juggler as they entered into the Lod Cook Alumni Center lobby where a wide array of artwork was displayed, gourmet food, fine wines, silent auction items and Elvis statue awaited them.
In addition to swilling wines of various flavors and origins from Treasury Wine Estates stations placed throughout the venue. The live music was provided by Rat Pack Band featuring Liza Minnelli that had even All Pro running back Jamal Anderson dancing (see attached photo), comedian D'lai was the evenings MC and his performances kept everyone filled with laughter.
A former LSU tiger and current Houston Texan, Jarvis was joined by NFL players, Jamal "Dirty bird" Anderson, Atlanta Falcons, Randall Gay, New Orleans Saints, Kevin Faulk, New England Patriots, Justin Vincent Pittsburgh Steelers, teammate Brandon Harris Texans as well as others who all also played at Louisiana State University. This event also attracted celebrities from outside of the sports arena who were in attendance such as the lovely ladies Kalenna from Diddy Dirty Money and R&B Songstress Stefani Vara as well as local politicians and various top local executives.
During the event, Green acknowledged the sponsors and volunteers but most importantly touched the reason he started his foundation and why this cause means much to him and those he has touched. Thus far, the Jarvis Green Foundation has been able to help the lives of 250+ single mothers and looks forward to increasing as the years go on. Jarvis would like to thank the sponsors Clear Channel Baton Rouge radio, Treasury Wine Estates, First Millennium Construction, Walton Core Construction, Real Sports Memorabilia, Ultimat Vodka, Patron Tequila, Dennis Denicola Tiger Den Furniture, Darrell Triplet Art for their support.
Jarvis is genuinely dedicated to his foundation's cause and is preparing to launch Wine Tasting Social events at Grille 23 in Boston, MA. The money raised this year will fund grants that greatly improve the circumstances of some deserving families so check out www.jarvisgreen.com for updates.

and now the detective doesnt want to give it back. It was stolen in Detroit and found in Lathrup Village a suburb of Detroit. I went to meet the detective yesterday and it wasnt what he said as to how he said it. "I'm not going to give you back this gun!" Me: Why not, I have the registration in my car, I can get it if you want." "No, im sending it to the State Police for testing." Me: "How long will that be?" "Could be about a year who knows." The tone of his voice was such that he didnt want me to have it. If I am given the run around or if the weapon just mysteriously vanishes into thin air, what should my next step be?

Lawyer up....
Had a rifle stolen from my garage over Christmas with the doors open about 3 feet to air out as I was lacquering some woodwork. The police called a month later saying they had found it and I should come pick it up. No questions asked but I had filed a report with serial and a picture. This was in a very small town. Would that make a difference? (very pro gun community on whole). Pistol as opposed to rifle? Hope you get your gun back man.
Many agencies send such firearms to the ballistics labs. It is not unusual for this process to take several months to a year or more depending on the backlog. If they "lose" the gun, they will be respopnsible for compensation. If you want to prevent such a "loss" here is a thought... Send a demand letter to the Chief of Police and City Manager. Describe the property you are demanding (the gun) in detail (serial number). Give them 10 days to release the item to you or you will take legal action. Even if they respond that the gun must undergo ballistic testing, they are on notice that you are going to be a problem if they do not excercise due dilligence.
In life, strive to take the high road....It offers a better field of fire. "Robo is right" Fuzzball

Before heading to the NCAA meetings and convention taking place in San Diego later this week, ACC Commissioner John Swofford joined The David Glenn Show to discuss a number of relevant topics, including a potentially system-altering proposal that will be discussed at those meetings which would allow the 5 power conferences (ACC, Big 10, Big 12, PAC-12, SEC) more autonomy within the current NCAA structure.
Swofford also discussed the latest update in the ACC vs. Maryland legal battle, a record-setting bowl season for the conference, Louisville's hiring of Bobby Petrino and more.
On Maryland's $157 million countersuit:
"Our lawyers will take care of that, it's not something I'm going to get in to. [The lawsuit is] really not that different than what was thrown out of court in the state of Maryland. Of course, jurisdictionally the case will now be heard in North Carolina. I'll leave it at that and you can read between the lines."
On NCAA re-structuring proposal:
"I think we're at a crossroads in terms of the NCAA and what it will look like going forward, and I'm encouraged by the discussions going on. I don't think there will be any decisions made this week at the convention."
"The expectation is [some time in 2014] that we may see some significant change in the organization itself from a structure standpoint and the anticipation is the 5 major equity conferences--I guess you would call us--will have more autonomy going forward. I think the athletic directors will be more involved in the ongoing processes of the NCAA....hopefully my optimism will become a reality in the next 6 to 12 months."
On ACC Football Divisions, Championship Game participants, Swofford pointed out it is NCAA regulations that mandate a conference, and in order to have a conference title game, each conference must have at least 12 teams and two divisions (whose winners meet in the conference title games). He added:
"We would like to see the NCAA legislation basically eliminated because we wonder why the NCAA should really control that. We think that should be a conference decision. I think, too, that having to have 12 schools has contributed to a lot of the conference movement that has gone on...so we'd like to see that eliminated."
"We'd also like to have the autonomy, have the flexibility--as every conference would have the autonomy to do so--to determine who should play in that championship game."
Swofford listed several possible options the ACC would look at regarding divisions if they were granted that autonomy, though he did point out that just being given the autonomy to make a change doesn't mean they would necessarily do so.
On the 2013-2014 football season:
Swofford's stats (or at least the ones he used in this interview): 3 BCS Bowl wins in 2 seasons; "National Championship back under our belt"; 11 bowl teams (record for any conference); 11 teams with winning seasons (first time in NCAA since 1932); Heisman, Outland Trophies plus a record haul of individual awards.
"It's been a banner year, and it comes at a really good time, because we needed that. We've had our struggles in postseason and particularly at the BCS level in the past decade, but we've got some of our premier programs either back where you would expect them to be, or on track to be back where you'd expect them to be."
On Louisville's hiring of Bobby Petrino:
"I don't Bobby. I do know [Louisville AD] Tom Jurich and Jim Ramsey the President of the University of Louisville and I have great confidence in them. Obviously, Bobby is an excellent football coach; he's been successful everywhere he's been in that regard."
"Louisville would know whether that's the right fit for them, and obviously they felt that it was, in terms of continuing the upper trajectory of their football program. My confidence is in Tom Jurich, who I know well and think is an outstanding Athletic Director."
He added:
"Those decisions are institutional in nature, not conference in nature."
Swofford also happened to have just spoken with Petrino by phone that morning: "We had a very good conversation. Hopefully Bobby will be a great addition to Louisville and to the ACC."
On ACC hoops, the "best conference" tag, and some overall league struggles on the court:
"When you look historically, and you look at what the basketball programs in our league today have done, it's a collection of basketball programs that I would still say are unmatched."
"There's a lot of basketball to be played this season as well. We've had some real highlights and we've had some teams that are puzzling, without question....I think what we're going to see is over the longer haul is the continuation of a tremendous basketball league going forward."
And, of course, on the future sites for the ACC Tournament, which is scheduled to be in Greensboro the next two years, followed by Washington, DC:
"We are interested in being in New York--I don't think that's any secret--at times going forward, but there are contractual agreements that other conferences have and arenas have; it's not an open book necessarily in New York right now, but we think it's important in the future to be there in some degree. We continue to evaluate that and discuss it. Having the next three years settled, it's not like we have to look at this with a gun to our head."
