4.0 out of 5 stars Life's a beach
Chuck Noland is a man who lives by the clock. Working for Federal Express he accounts for every second of his life and lives for efficiency. His Xmas 1995 dinner is interrupted when work calls him away to supervise a flight to Malaysia. He promises his girlfriend Kelly that he'll be right back. He doesn't realize he's making a promise he can't keep.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bluray Review
This is a very barebones transfer to Bluray and extremely disappointing. I did a back to back comparison with the DVD and the image quality is not the improvement you'd expect from Bluray and doesn't seem to be of the quality discussed in reviews of the US Bluray release.
There are no special features, not even the director`s commentary audio track, which the...

This review is from: Cast Away [Blu-ray] [Region Free] (Blu-ray)
Chuck Noland is a man who lives by the clock. Working for Federal Express he accounts for every second of his life and lives for efficiency. His Xmas 1995 dinner is interrupted when work calls him away to supervise a flight to Malaysia. He promises his girlfriend Kelly that he'll be right back. He doesn't realize he's making a promise he can't keep.
While passing over the Pacific his plane enters a storm and ditches into the ocean, very violently. Chuck is the only survivor of the flight and manages to escape into the water with a life raft, but loses the radio transmitter in the process. When morning breaks he discovers that he has washed-up on an uninhabited island. Rescue does not come, and Chuck must figure out how to survive while torturing himself with memories of Kelly.
In an annoying cop-out, the film then jumps to Four Years Later where Chuck has reverted to a cave-man appearance. He's not a happy man, but his outlook changes when a steel section of a port-a-john washes up on the beach. Using a analemma he has etched onto a cave wall, Chuck is STILL keeping track of time and plans an escape from the island using the sheet of steel as a sail for his rickety raft to freedom.
Cast Away (not Castaway) has lovely sound design and photography (why Zemeckis chose to shoot it in 1.85:1 is rather odd though, as many shots seem uncomfortably tight), and really immerses you in the threatening silence of the island. It actually reminds me a lot of the video game Myst in that respect. But the film is book-ended by boredom. The only part I ever really watch is the middle section on the island. Skipping over Chuck's 4-year transformation from mailman to caveman was bad enough, but once he eventually makes his escape from the island the movie skips over the 4-weeks of his reintroduction to society, which is yet another cop-out.
Zemeckis attempts far too much ambiguity with Cast Away. It's usually a sign of a writer/director attempting to cover-up failings with mystery, but Cast Away is a better script than that and it comes across as just being pretentious. The middle section of the film is intriguing. The non-island scenes haven't got a leg to stand on.
The Blu Ray comes to the UK market courtesy of Dreamworks. Formally a Universal release on DVD in the UK, Cast Away was released by Fox in the American market on DVD in 2001 and BD way back in 2007. The UK release features a different transfer, framed at 1.78:1, in 1080p with DTS HD-MA sound. All of the extras featured on the US release have been thrown out, giving this $430 million film a cheap home video presentation. The US release is region-locked, so UK fans of the film are stuck with this. Don't pay more than a budget price.

5.0 out of 5 stars A LESSON IN LONELINESS,
This is such a good film, thought provoking, realistic and un-glamourised. Its the kind of film that will play on your mind and become even better as you relive it in your mind. Its an eye opener to how many distractions we have in our lives, and what it could be like if they were all taken away in a blink of an eye. The movie asks this question, is it a blessing or a curse to survive such a crash?
The whole scene of the plane crashing is terrifyingly real. You'll be holding your breath for a while.... The style used to make the island part of the movie is very effective at making the viewer uncomfortable. No music score whatsoever until very near the end which is very noticeable when it happens, like a breath of fresh air. You can feel though out the film, conscious decisions to not use tools like voice-overs to fill the silence. This I feel, keeps the viewer more at a distance from Chuck's feelings, but ultimately drags the viewer deeper into the miserable situation he is in, making the whole film more interactive in a way. Which is probably why the film has not been to everyone's tastes.
Castaway has left me with a similar feeling as when I saw new version of 'The Thin Red Line' Although almost in opposite ways, its very spiritual, like staring death in the face. Keep breathing, remind yourself who you used to be. Chuck has a picture of his girl. That old light at the end of the cave. And let's not forget Wilson, the best friend guy could have. :-)
The DVD is worth every penny. Quality is what you'd expect. There is also a massive interview with Tom Hanks, which he not only talks about Castaway, but Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers, and That thing you do. Ever since my all time favourite movie "Joe versus the volcano" Tom has just got a bigger and bigger star, and this film shows us why.

This review is from: Cast Away [Blu-ray] [Region Free] (Blu-ray)
I've only ever seen Castaway in dribs and drabs. Somehow I would always end up watching 20 mins here and there when it was on TV. I saw it was about to come out on BD so I thought I'd finally force myself to watch it as a whole.
I wouldn't say it's one of my favourite movies of all time but it's still a good watch. A great story portrayed thoroughly by the director and Tom Hanks.
The HD quality is very good. Obviously, I don't have the DVD but I can say 100% that this will be worth the upgrade. The audio is very good also and adds plenty of atmosphere to many of the scenes.
Languages and subs are well catered for:

5.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining, involving, contemplative,
I have been impressed by Tom Hanks acting. His onscreen persona somehow projects into your life for a short while, as you see him act out the role he plays. As an actor, he involves his audience - which is hard onscreen as there is no direct audience contact.
The concept of the trails and learning experiences that being "Castaway" would bring has always had an appeal to me. Intuition? Initiative? Survival? Health? Psychology? Sanity? Hope? Expectation? Despair? Recovery? Frustration? Those left behind? Re-integration with society?
All these issues are touched upon in this film with excellent screen play and directorship. The island he is on could almost be paradise, if it were not a prison. It is not just a prison due to it's location, but also the geogrpahical characteristics of the Island make it very hard to escape. It is fascinating to see how he deals with and overcomes these frustrations and challenges. Look out for "Wilson", is he "real" or not? I felt a sense of loss when he floated away... (you will have to watch it to find out.)
You don't normally expect special effects in a film of this type, but the plane crash is probably the most harrowing you will ever see. Also great thought went into the camera shots, some very technical manouveres carried out.
The other side of the coin is the effect on the people who presumed he was dead. What about the problems when that person is finally discovered... if you lost someone this way, you still loved them at the point they went. So you could rebuild your life, but that love you had is still "alive", in effect that relationship might not have had "closure". What happens if that person comes back? The portrayal in this film provokes contemplation on how we as individuals would react by how we feel about what we see onscreen.
Finally, the ending of the film leaves room for hope. There is a thread that run's throughout the film that I didn't appreciate until the end, but it is key to the survival of this individual.
I saw the trailers for this film, and wanted to view it in the cinema, but it just passed by for one reason or another. Then I heard reports that some people found it boring, so it passed me by on DVD as well, until one day circumstance meant I did finally watch it. I think it is a long film, I say "I think" because it went very quickly for me, which is a good indication I enjoyed watching it.
Certainly I would recommend you watch this film, if not own it on DVD. I don't think it is the type of film I would watch very often, but will always be in memory. If you think you will get good usage out of this DVD or are a Tom Hanks fan, then certainly buy it, watch it, show it to your mates etc. If not, try and borrow it off someone else.

5.0 out of 5 stars An undoubted masterpiece,
Tom Hanks never gives a bad performance. And Robert Zemeckis very rarely produces a bad film. Let that be the premise to my review of an undoubted masterpiece of film.
Cast Away is a bold, brave and risky film, yet Tom Hanks and director Robert Zemeckis were nicely rewarded at the box office (if not the Oscars!) in the latter stages of 2000, and the early parts of 2001, and indeed right throughout its cinematic release.
On DVD, the Cast Away package is enhanced by the decent features on the bonus disc: there are lots of documentaries and featurettes, plus an informative audio commentary from Zemeckis and his production team.
The film itself is fantastic. It starts slowly and ends slowly, but I suppose most viewers will be most eager to catch the middle section of the movie, where Chuck (Hanks) and Wilson are stranded on the island - for a full 4 years!
For much of the movie, think 'silence'. It is basically a silent movie for an hour or so, for being stranded on a desert island is obviously a very lonely experience. It will become clear very quickly to Chuck that he has no immediate means of food, water, shelter, nor fire. His hopes of survival are constantly tempered by bouts of depression, exhaustion and a series of physical injuries. He resigns himself to the fact that he will probably die on that island. Very touching.
How on earth Tom Hanks didn't win his 3rd Oscar for that awesome performance I'll never know! It's a performance that will be very difficult to supersede. Hanks even had to repeat his infamous 'Philadelphia' weight-loss to make his food-deprived stay on the island all the more realistic.
In my opinion, this film has wonderful scenery (filmed on a remote island in the Pacific Ocean), very good cinematography, a decent score from Alan Silvestri (although we hear no music for the middle section of the film), but it really is Tom Hanks as Fed-Ex worker, Chuck Nolan, who steals the show with an exceptional demonstration of why he is considered the best actor in the world today.
At the Oscars in 2001, Gladiator swept the board, leaving Cast Away with virtually nothing. Sometimes there is just no justice at awards ceremonies.

4.0 out of 5 stars We live and we die by time. And we must not commit the sin of losing our track on time.,
Spike Owen "John Rouse Merriott Chard" (Birmingham, England.) - See all my reviews
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Cast Away [DVD] [2000] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
Jetting off on yet another important task, FedEx whizzer Chuck Noland leaves his girlfriend Kelly Frears {Helen Hunt} behind just before Christmas. Disaster strikes during the flight and the plane crashes into the ocean. Managing to free himself from the sinking jet, Noland is washed up on an uninhabited island. Without basic modern comforts and fighting solitude daily, Noland must live in hope that one day he might be saved before he loses his mind or the will to live.
Tom Hanks {Noland} re-teams with director Robert Zemeckis after their hugely successful collaboration on 1994 awards stealer, Forrest Gump. Tho Cast Away didn't win any awards {the usual cry of it being Oscar bait had preceded it } it can be argued to be Hanks' best performance. Few actors in the modern era could carry the film the way that Hanks does. Beguiling and drawing us into his loneliness, Hanks, with minimal dialogue {his only company being a volleyball that washed up with a few other FedEx parcels} excels with facial and bodily acting. Zemeckis, who should be applauded for the middle section and the terrifying plane crash that precedes it, puts Hanks' Noland thru the mangler. The convenience of said parcels washing ashore aside, Noland is bumped bruised and dentally challenged, the Robinson Crusoe clichés exist of course, but Zemeckis and a heartfelt Hanks put us there on the island as well, with a pat on the back due for the excellent work by the sound department I might add.
Sadly Cast Away is bookended by not so great work. The opening character introductions are unremarkable but just about good enough for the plot set up, but the ending lacks emotional punch and defies what has been built up. Things aren't helped by Helen Hunt's lack of chemistry with Hanks, but that in turn is not helped by the writing from William Broyles Jr since it's only really now that it's Noland that we care about. It's a bit churlish to complain too much tho, because Zemeckis kept us on the island with Chuck, there was no cutting back to grieving family or fruitless rescue attempts. With that it was a truly fine one man show, even if that is something that ultimately renders the ending something of a let down. 7.5/10

4.0 out of 5 stars Cast Away,
Spider Monkey (UK) - See all my reviews
It's surprising just how good `Cast Away' is. I mean, who would've thought a film about a man alone on a desert island would be so riveting? Maybe that is testament to Tom Hanks who turns out a star performance here. The location and scenery are also amazing and the direction shows it off to excellent effect. This film follows Chuck Noland (Hanks) as he survives a plane crash and has to live on a deserted island in the middle of the pacific ocean for four years. You live his loneliness and trials as he struggles to survive and learn the skill necessary to get by. In fact the scene when he finally learns to make fire, and his reaction to it, never fails to raise a smile and you truly feel his jubilation. The middle section of the film on the island is very quiet, as previously noted in other reviews, but it doesn't drag and only heightens the isolation Noland must feel. Hanks keeps you engrossed by his every nuance and movement he makes. It's only when Noland begins to unwrap FedEx parcels (from the plane crash) and finds a Wilson Volley ball, that he paints a face onto, does he start talking again. It actually become quite touching to see him interact with an inanimate object and must be one of the most unique on-screen relationships ever! The ending is a little `Hollywood' and cheesy, but not excessively so and I'll admit to a lump in my throat briefly towards the end. This is a simple premise, excellently executed and although I've seen this film many times it never gets boring or any less gripping. Well worth a watch.

Mr. J. F. Ellis - See all my reviews
A lot of hype about this film, and I really thought I wouldn't enjoy it. I was wrong. The crash scene at the start was amazing. And what follows is unlike any film I've ever seen. Not many actors could pull it off. A truely enjoyable story that I could easily watch again and again.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another masterpiece from the team of Zemeckis and Hanks!,
firstname.lastname@example.com (Chepstow, Wales) - See all my reviews
I waited over a year to see Forrest Gump and as soon as I heard that the same director and actor were working on another film together I had to see it. As in Forrest Gump, Castaway is both gripping and moving. The script itself is incredibly crafted and Hanks' acting is once again second to none. This film is an absolute must see for any true movie lover!

5.0 out of 5 stars A palpable, incredibly emotional experience,
Daniel Jolley "darkgenius" (Shelby, North Carolina USA) - See all my reviews
Cast Away is just an amazing cinematic achievement. You don't just watch this movie; you really have to devote an entire night to it; it's just that powerful and moving. At almost two and a half hours in length, it is uncommonly long in and of itself (but it does not feel long to the enthralled viewer); figure in all of the incredible special features included in the 2-disc special edition, and you are looking at a whole night's worth of rich entertainment. Cast Away has just about everything you could want in a movie: romance, adventure, action, heartbreak, suspense, mystery, nature at its most ugly and most beautiful, you name it; most importantly, it manages, after several cathartic moments, to leave one with a sense of hope and a strange kind of joy. Tom Hanks takes us on an emotional roller coaster ride, and he deserves a tremendous amount of credit for making this film work as perfectly as it does. There really isn't a lot of dialogue during the time on the island; long drawn-out moments focus on Hanks' expression, body language, and emotion. When he finds a friend to talk to in Wilson, he makes that character really come alive and become a very real character in the film.
Don't think that this is just another Robinson Crusoe remake. Chuck Noland (Hanks) is an obsessive, deeply committed system engineer for FedEx. Everything for him must be planned and executed according to the limits of time, and so he is truly a duck out of water when his plane goes down in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and leaves him stranded all alone on a deserted island. Time is meaningless for him here, but he has a picture of the woman he loves with him to help him go on living when it would be so easy to just give up. He learns to survive on his own in the tropical environment, but not without much pain and battles with hopelessness. When the situation threatens to overwhelm him, the character of Wilson comes along. Wilson is a volleyball, but he has a face framed with Chuck's own blood and becomes the personification of the world of people he longs to return to. After four years on the island, Wilson is a true companion whom Chuck talks to, argues with, but dearly loves as a very real friend. The escape attempt from the island is very powerful, containing within itself more important truths and examples of the human spirit than I can name. It is also where the first tears begin to well up in my eyes. You might expect this type of film to end with a long-overdue rescue and return to a happy life, but in Cast Away, the real human drama is just getting started at this point. Chuck's return home to his friends and the woman he loves is so much more than bittersweet; having seemingly lost everyone and everything he cared for four years earlier, his miraculous return becomes another tale of great loss. This movie is a real tear-jerker; just when you think it's time to rejoice, you are met with more poignant heartbreak. Hope never dies, though, and the writers do a tremendous job of subtly presenting that heart-warming message.
I love Wilson; he is such a great character that, volleyball or not, I think he should have been nominated for a best supporting actor award. Amazingly, he really slipped into the movie by accident, yet much of this movie's power is conveyed through him. The inclusion of a featurette on the life and death of Wilson on the second DVD is a testament to his importance to this story. This second DVD is filled with an incredible selection of bonus features: features on the making of the film, its special effects, and a look at the beautiful and bonafide island paradise location of the filming; there is an interview of Tom Hanks by Charlie Rose, a survivalist documentary, and a movie-length commentary as well. You can't ask more from a movie than Cast Away gives you, and you can't ask for more from a DVD than this two-disc special edition delivers.

According to PBS, koala bears are native to Australia and live in its southern and eastern regions. These animals primarily live in tall eucalypt forests, low eucalypt woodlands and coastal or island woodlands.Know More
Koala bears almost exclusively eat eucalyptus leaves, consuming approximately a pound a day and obtaining nearly all the water they need from these plants. While over 600 species of eucalypt exist, koalas only feed on a few species, thus limiting their available habitat. The leaves of the eucalypt are toxic to most animals, but koalas have a specially adapted digestive system to counter the toxins in the leaves.Learn more in Bears

Ridicule and disparaging caricatures
While generally perceived as lacking in seriousness and very much a double-edged sword, it is worth considering the strategic value of ridicule and name-calling. I provide two links on ridicule in the political sphere below. The former is useful for pointing out the weaknesses of ridicule. The latter is particularly interesting to read for its discussion of ridicule as a weapon in various historical contexts and its strategic value in times of conflict.
In short, ridicule is essential in the political sphere for many reasons. The mental image, caricature and associative power provided by the amalgamation of HC and AH may not be in the best "taste" but it does not necessarily denigrate the utterer and his/her cohort to anti-intellecual or uncivilized status. Where does this case fall? Read on below and decide for yourselves:

Bleach Bottle bunny, need help!
jannashomeMarch 24, 2009
When I was small, my mom made easter baskets out of bleach bottles. I dont think they were cut, except for a hole in the back. I almost think they had some kind of colored plastic bag glued to them. I remember them being fluffy, like when you take a square of crepe paper and pinch it and fluff it, and glue in on something like a parade float? I would ask my mom but she is not here anymore, and I thought this would be fun to do with my own grandkids. If anyone has the same memory, please let me know!!! Thanks ,

Sea-Tumbling Relaxation
"Lie down in a comfortable place, with your arms and legs extended. Imagine lying at the edge of the sea on an empty beach. The tide is coming in. Gentle waves lap at your feet and ankles and very slowly move up your body until you are immersed in shallow water. As the water rises, feel yourself floating; let the rhythmic currents draw you out to sea. Feel the waves beneath you as you glide up and down. When you're ready, roll over onto your stomach, and ride the crest of a wave back to shore, landing on the smooth, warm sand. Stay there and relax in the profound calm."
Candle Meditation
"Meditate on a candle. Once you have stabilized your vision of the flame, visualize it rising from the candle and floating into your heart. See the flame's light growing within you, becoming a warm magenta color. Let this magenta-colored light surround your body like an aura, radiating peace and self-love. When the time feels right, watch the flame return to normal. As the visualization ends, keep the warmth and strength of that inner love and peace within you."
Nature Visualization
"See yourself lying on a patch of thick, fragrant green grass on a hillside, under an old elm tree. The sky is spotted with full, puffy white clouds that float slowly across the blue expanse. The temperature in the air is the same as that on your skin. You take many deep breaths, concentrating on how relaxing they are. See and feel yourself float into your surroundings, looking all around. Still floating, travel to a different place, such as a forest or a beach. Look. Smell. Feel. When you are ready to end this journey, imagine yourself back on the hillside, under the elm tree. It is now sunset. Take another deep breath and remember everything you felt during this meditation."
Pebble Meditation
"Sit and breathe. Now think of yourself as a pebble falling through clear water. Sink through the water — without intention — toward a resting spot on the gentle sand at the water's bottom. Let your mind and body come to rest, like the pebble resting in the sand. Watch your breath and hold this image for a half hour."...psychcentral.com

I recently succumbed to love at first sight and bought a couple of these but I am now paralyzed with the thought that this will go the same way my mothers experience with growing peonies in Dallas went. Love does not equal success.
They are 10gal. container grown and the trees themselves are approx. 4ft. tall. We have multiple choices as far as locations to plant them and could even just move them to larger planters for optimal placement if that is recommended. I just know that 'full sun' on an information tag DOES NOT mean Dallas sun. Help me please!! Have I lost my heart only to have it broken?

Our first statewide Master Gardener Conference
I just got home from the first day of our very first statewide conference. It started at 9:30 this morning, and goes through 4:00 tomorrow afternoon. I wasn't in on any of the planning (I work full time, so my involvement is unfortunately limited), but I've been very impressed so far. We've had great speakers and good food - what more could you ask for, lol? The speakers are mostly from Louisiana, Texas, and Mississippi. Some sessions are for everyone, and others are smaller groups where we had to sign up for the ones we wanted. A couple of them were geared for the master gardening program rather than individual gardeners (Fundraisng & Grant Writing and So, You've Been Invited to Talk About Gardening?). There was also a panel discussion on Louisiana Master Gardener Projects so ideas could be shared from around the state. The final session will be Chef John Folse speaking on the Plantation Potager - that should be great!
Have any of your states had conferences? If so, what were they like?
Hi Janet --
I've been a MG for 6 years. Our state MG group has conferences every year in late spring, and I look forward to them! They rotate around the state and are hosted by groups in the area to hold the conference. We also use the conference to get folks to volunteer for growing trials around the state, which allows research on designated varieties.
They almost always have an outside keynote speaker of gardening interest, then workshops and speakers on everything from gardening and design, to leadership, to how to build membership participation. Every year I have learned something new (this year it was native WV grass identification.)
We have a silent auction and live auction on Saturday night. Most of all, we laugh and have great community experiences with other MGs from across the state.
What an amazing experience to be with a couple hundred folks who share your interests and service orientation! This year I am checking out the northeast regional conference as well!
Linda, yours sounds great too! I forgot to mention that last night we had a dinner and a silent auction at LSU's Burden Research Center. It was a great time for those from other parts of the state to wander through our research gardens and mingle with MGs from all over the state. I would definately plan to go to another one.
I think I prefer our late summer date to a late spring date, though. I'm already fighting to find enough time to spend in my garden in the spring - I wouldn't like to give up a weekend! NOBODY wants to spend much time in the garden down here in late August, LOL.
We hosted out state conference last year & it was great. We had a garden tour of local gardeens as well as a tour of Caddo Lake, some of the Rose field & Powell Plant Farm which is an amazing commercial operation.
Dteve Bender, of Southern Living was the banquet speaker, plpus we had Bill Welch, Scott Ogden A guy from David Austin Roses in the UK & a whole host of others.
It was a great experience. Next year the Conference is going to be in Denton - not too far away, so i'm hoping to go
In Georgia we have had Master Gardeners for 25 years and State meetings for most of those. I assumed every state had annual State Master Gardener Conferences. We have had speakers from Tony Avent to Alan Armitage, Michael Dirr, Felder Rushing plus I, myself have spoken twice. The last time I spoke at one of these things I was a vendor also. I hope I never spread myself that thin again, Whew!
Ours is usually a day-long affair but due to the 25th Anniversary of MGs in GA this winter it will be 2 days. If I am not mistaken, we usually have around 400 or more people in attendance.
When and where are you going to have the first Louisiana State Master Gardener Conference? I would like to see your program when you get it completed.
I attended my first State Master Gardener Conference at Texas A&M in the spring of 1999. And just this past May 2004, we had the State Master Gardener Conference in Corpus Christi and our Aransas/San Patricio Master Gardener Association assisted the Nueces County Master Gardeners with it.
We requested pre-registration so we would have an idea on how many people were going to attend. On Thursday, we had actual registration and attendees were given a program along with a "goodie bag". Also there were some pre-tour tours available on Thursday, and in the evening there was a welcome reception at the Corpus Christi Botanical Gardens.
Then on Friday there were various options to choose from, i.e. state executive board meetings, junior master gardener meetings, workshops and premium tours. One of the tours was Rockport. We arranged for a short slide presentation at the library and then toured 5 gardens. At noon a wonderful box luncheon, prepared by a local restaurant, was served on the grounds of the Fulton Mansion. Friday night we had a silent auction and our award banquet dinner where the state awards were presented and we had a featured speaker.
Saturday there were educational programs all day along with a buffet luncheon of Mexican Food. Very good. And we had vendors there with garden related items.
All in all, it turned out very well with approximately 600 in attendance.

Ronnie was a pleasure to host. He was very respectful and an interesting person. I hope he comes back next time he visits his daughter at school.
we loved having ronnie again and this time with his wife :)
Ronnie and his wife were super nice and friendly. It was a pleasure to host them.
He was so fun and an amazing fun loving dad! Can't wait to have him again
It was very nice to have Ronnie here & nice to get a chance to chat with him!
Ronnie and his family were great guests - I'd be happy to host them again
Ronnie and his daughter were wonderful guests. I certainly hope we get to see them again when visiting or passing through Southern California.
Ronnie stayed with us for a second time in our guest bedrooms. He is such a wonderful person, I can't recommend him as a guest highly enough. he is warm, kind, generous, and such an enthusiastic traveller and explorer. We consider him part of the family, and he's welcome again any time.
Ronnie was a model guest! We gladly recommend him.
We had such a wonderful time getting to know Ronnie during his recent (and too brief) visit. We felt like a new friendship was made as we shared life stories and experiences. If you have the opportunity to meet/host Ronnie - you really should do it! He and his family are enthusiastically welcomed back to visit anytime!

Brach's Candy made in Mexico or US--letter sent
I just sent a email to Brach's candy co because I bought some Autumn mix--candy corn etc and on the back states it is manufactured in MN, then stamped below that made in Mexico. If I had seen that earlier, would not have bought it. Did contact company and will let you know
Both say manufactured? Or does one say it's packaged in one location or the other? That's kind of strange. Keep us posted.
Brach's of course isn't the Brach's of old. It's been sold a number of times and is now owned by Farley's & Sathers, headquarters are in Round Lake MN. The City site says: "The company bags and ships 42 million pounds of candy at the Round Lake facility each year." so it could be it's made in Mexico and packaged and reshipped from Round Lake. It'll be interesting to hear how they respond.
Have you also noticed the change in texture of candy corn in the past few years? It used to be smooth--now it's more the texture of a pencil eraser. I forget that every year and buy a bag of it, and then am disappointed that it's not the same as it used to be.
I, too, try to stay away from foods made in other countries, but I simply cannot live without Hershey's chocolate--haven't yet been able to make myself give that up.
If you want to eschew any foods imported from other countries, you will have a very, very limited diet.
In the case of candy....neither cocoa beans or sugar for human consumption are grown in the us.
Manufacturing on site keeps prices down. Would you pay 2 or 3X what you pay now for candy made in the US by union employees?

Is it against the law in Maryland to skip Kindergarten?
My daughter was born in September 2003. She took an exam to enter Kindergarten this fall and passed. She is not even five yet and is already at 1st grade level math and Reading. I strongly feel academically, emotionally, and physically (90 Percentile in height) she should be in 1st grade. I feel if she goes to Kindergarten this coming fall, she will be bored. We recently moved to Maryland and I mostly rely on my Aunt (She has a six year old son) to navigate through the educational system here. She is the one who told me about the early entrance exam for kindergarten. When i mentioned to her that i would like try to get my daughter into first grade, My aunt told me its against Maryland Law. Is this true? Is there a law or a rule against Skipping Kindergarten in Maryland? I can supplement my daughter's education at home, but I can€™t carry the whole burden. I feel if she attends Kindergarten this year, I will be doing all the teaching and her school time will be playtime for her. So my question is, is it against Maryland law or rules to allow children to skip Kindergarten? If there's no such rule, then what are the steps i need to take to get her into first grade this school year?In Topics: Kindergarten readiness

My HG is maybelliene eyeliner but I got this at a b1g1 promotion. I do like this eyeliner, it stays put all day and gives me Katy Perry eyes. I just cant go over the liner more than once or it smears across. With the maybelliene I can build up my eyeliner from a thin line for daytime to a thick liner for night within one day, this felt tip marker unfortunately is not as versatile. It does provide a great cleopatra look, see pic above, I will use it up and probably not repurchase. If they made a brown in this I would have bought it but they dont.

I love this eye liner! I gave this a 4 only because it does dry out kind of fast and (like all PF products) is a bit pricey, but it's sooo easy to use and lasts all day without running or wearing off. Will definitely repurchase.

It's like a permanent marker eyeliner that is excellent for oily skin. Super waterproof with great staying power for me on my oily eyelids. I had a hard time finding a liquid liner that doesn't smear and burn, especially one that lasts all day for me.
I apply it before everything else, and it dries really fast. If I slip, I just clean up the line with a cotton swab moistened with liquid waterproof eye makeup remover, followed by a swab dampened with water to get the eye makeup remover off my lid before applying primer, shadow, and mascara.

I have bought this product twice, hoping the "new formula" would be better than the old, but it was basically not different at all. The pen can only be applied directly to the skin. If I tried to use it on top of anything else (eyeshadows, or even a base), it would clog up and stop working. I tried unclogging the tip by drawing it around on my hand and it would still not work again. Invest in a good brush and some gel eyeliner. Stay away from this stuff. The ELF waterproof pen works better than this, and at a cheaper price.

I actually really liked this at first. It goes on nice and easy, but you have to apply it like 2 or 3 times if you wear shadow. I liked the soft felt tip because I have sensitive eyes, so it wasn't all harsh with the tugging and it was easy to make precision lines...
Throughout the day I noticed it just totally disappeared on my eyelids. Where'd it go! And yeah, it dries out real quick. I wouldn't buy it again. it ain't bold enough for me...

I bought this because I was desperate for liquid eyeliner. All the nearby stores I went to were out of my HG Maybelline liquid eyeliner in black, I guess everyone's been hooked on it! Anyway I bought this as a substitute till the stores could restock. My experience with this liner was average. First try at applying was easy, nice smooth lines with no tugging or drying out but I did notice several things 1) I had a bit difficulty gliding this over eyeshadow. 2) It seemed to dry out after the first use (I kinda like my liners a little wet its easier for me to apply that way) and 3) Upon removal I realized this product had a hint of bluish green hue. Not true black. Overall its an ok product, I love the idea that its a felt tip pen which is easier than the screw off paint brush applicator with the Maybelline but id prefer the latter. Only time i'd repurchase is if they ran out of my HG. Another similar product that has equal performance is the Covergirl Line Exact.

This is near HG for me. I rarely wear eyeliner and when I do its usually a tightline or a thinner line on the top lid only with a little wing. I like how this isn't too wet and its very easy to control where it goes and dries quickly. The black is a deep enough for deeper/darker skin. I've been having mine quite a while (probably longer than I should have) and it hasn't dried out. Once it does I will likely get it again. I can't see myself using eyeliner in any other form as a worry about smudging making my eye area look darker. The price is fair as compared with higher end products and I often see this on sale.
EDIT: The newer formula of this IS dryer. I got a new one on sale for under $2 and it was dried out and just not the same. Revlon colorstay has a pen-eyeliner and I like that better than this.

I want to start by saying Emanuela is one of the nicest people/hosts we have met. She was very prompt to answer emails, she was very generous (left us a bottle of wine and some goodies as a welcome gift, had a lovely farewell package for us), she even picked us up and dropped us off at the train station. We couldn´t say enough nice things about her.
San Remo is beautiful and definitely worth a visit as is Ventimiglia, which we enjoyed just as much. We loved riding a bike everyday in the pista ciclabile, it has breathtaking scenery.
The house itself has beautiful views. It would be best, for those who do not like to walk to rent a car. We enjoyed walking to and from the center and it was a good way to burn the pasta carbs for us, but it might not be for everyone. The house was clean and spacious. We did have a problem and it was there was an odd and unpleasant smell in the bedrooms and the hallway. It made the time we were in the house not very pleasant. I´m sure its something fixable and that Emanuela will take care of it, but it really was a distracting odor that made us not want to be in the house very much.
Besides that the kitchen was well equipped, the bed was comfortable and the wifi was fast.
As I said, Emanuela was wonderful and San Remo is most definitely a wonderful place to spend your holidays.
Dear Valery,
First of all thank you for the compliments about my house and me. Anyway we're very surprised for your discomfort because our guests, and us, never had any problems with a bad smell, it is very strange and we ask sorry for that. As you said I do my possible to be kind and to offer to my guests all the best services they deserve on holidays: if you had told us about your problem during your stay we would absolutely solved your discomfort immediately. Unfortunately you choose another way.
Bests, Emanuela
Emanuela is a super kind person and a perfect host. She does her possible to give to their guests a beautiful holiday in Sanremo... Always with a big smile!

Miele w4840 and detergent dispensing
My w4840 has started dispensing both the pre-wash (heavy soli) detergent and the main wash detergent at the same time (both in the pre-wash). I am wondering whether I unintentionally changed something in programming mode which created this situation. I have a vague recollection that this functionality might be desirable if one has hard water, but in looking through the programming mode, I can't find any option for "hard water" that I might have accidentally switched on.
Does anyone have any ideas about how to stop both dispensers from releasing detergent at once? I have just started an extra white cycle with heavy soil, extended, and sensitive selected, and it is definitely releasing all detergent in the pre wash.
@ coruscate
This is not normal behavior and should not be happening. I've customized certain settings using the programming menu, but I am not experiencing the issue you describe. Are you putting liquid detergent in the main compartment? Is it possible that this detergent is simply leaking out? Miele recommends using powdered detergents when using heavy soil/pre-wash because liquid detergents may leak out of the main wash dispenser before the pre-wash is completed.
I am only using powdered detergents, so it's not a leaking issue. Is there some type of setting for hard water that I might of activated? I certainly cannot find it now if there is. Or do you think there might be certain types of cycles where this is a "feature?"
@ coruscate
Larsi, another member of this forum, thought he had the same problem, but then realized he was mistaken. You are saying that immediately upon filling for the pre-wash, as you are standing in front of the machine, you can verify immediately after starting the cycle that detergent from the main compartment is being dispensed? There is no setting except Maximum Water Levels that is designed for soft water conditions, and most of us here have that turned on and do not experience what you are describing.
Only the pre-wash/heavy soil compartment dispenses if Heavy Soil/pre-wash is selected. The pre-wash lasts about 10 minutes, the water drains (no spin) and then fills again for the main wash from the main detergent compartment. Either you are mistaken or you need to have your machine serviced.
