UPDATED: Jimmy Buffett to perform at Coyote Drive-In June 19
UPDATE: Tickets for the Fort Worth concert will be $125 per person, and go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday, via Jimmy Buffett's website.
On June 19, Fort Worth will be, for an evening, the center of the Parrothead universe.
Jimmy Buffett and his Coral Reefer Band will perform an intimate show at Coyote Drive-In as the inaugural musician in the "Live at the Drive-In" series, an idea conceived and produced by Coyote Drive-In owner-operators Brady Wood and Brandt Wood via their company, Woodhouse, in conjunction with Austin-based C3 Presents.
"There is not another artist we'd rather be working with," Brandt Wood says. "Jimmy has taken a personal interest — he grew up at drive-ins."
What Wood described as "a big film crew" will be on hand during Buffett's performance, which will be broadcast live, via DirecTV, to every participating, digitally-equipped drive-in across the country.
The concert will be a regular, full performance, according to Wood, who says this concept, which Woodhouse has been working on for the last year, is the biggest of its kind that's ever been attempted.
Wood says there has been "great response" from the country's more than 170 digitally-equipped drive-in theaters thus far, and he hopes "Live at the Drive-In" will continue beyond this initial event, and feature other musical acts in the future.
The one-off performance allows Buffett, currently touring in support of last year's LP Songs from St. Somewhere, to reach "fans that are in the secondary and tertiary markets," Wood says, "that are often out of range of his normal tour."
In addition to this special event, Buffett is scheduled to perform June 21 at Frisco's Toyota Stadium.
While Wood declined to specify the Buffett concert's potential capacity, previous Star-Telegram reports indicate that the Coyote Drive-In, which opened a year ago on Panther Island, holds about 1,300 cars.
Tickets for the Coyote Drive-In concert go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday via Buffett's website.
Ticket prices for Fort Worth were not made available Tuesday, although a Woodhouse spokesperson did say tickets would be $18 at other drive-ins nationwide. (Prices for the Fort Worth show will obviously be higher, sources said, given that it's the site of the actual concert.) The list of the participating national drive-ins will be announced Friday.

The short answer is yes. In our estimation, roughly 70% of today's PR firms with their traditional public relations and communications business structures will not survive the fast-approaching social media avalanche. The remaining 30% that need to reinvent their position real fast in their newly morphed industry will prosper, compared to where they were and what they were doing before.
For publicly traded companies, current rules dictate that information can be made public by a press release or by a telephone conference call but not simply on a website. Ninety percent of today's PR firms are still in business simply because of this single rule.
For the first time three years ago, in 2006, Sun Microsystems CEO Jonathan Schwartz asked the SEC to change this rule. Well, the new White House is already posting the President's weekly addresses to the nation on its website, completely bypassing the traditional media outlets and vehicles.
Today's PR firms are sitting ducks in the way of tomorrow's social media freight train. They will join the extinct species of dinosaurs right about the same time as newspapers and most print magazines.
When we launched Ulitzer's public beta roughly two months ago, our experience with the public relations firms can be categorized under the following three distinct groups.
1) PR firms who jumped at the opportunity and are using the Ulitzer platform on daily basis to post their clients' news and press releases. In this group of public relations firms we generally see traditional news distribution activity. They understand the platform and use it for effective news syndication. This group will eventually discover new and creative ways to utilize new social media tools.
2) Savvy PR firms who sign up their clients as authors and publish their bylined articles in addition to using Ulitzer's powerful news syndication features. These firms are the ones most likely to adapt and survive the fast-changing landscape of the new PR business.
3) PR firms who understand Ulitzer and are horrified by the idea that their clients may actually find out about it. I had a lengthy correspondence with the owner of a Silicon Valley technology PR company who told me he not only wanted to remove the story posted on Ulitzer but also remove it from Google News and other outbound syndicated news sites. This experience made me think that the founder and owner of this well-known public relations company did not even have a clue how the Internet worked. Now, these PR companies will be the first ones that will vanish with the wide acceptance and use of social media platforms such as Ulitzer.
By the way, new social media tools do not mean Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn. I am talking about the tools that do not exist yet or are not widely known today. Today's popular platforms will never pass the stage of mass spam tools; their non-existent effectiveness will be proven null before the end of this year.
Companies with the Largest Number of Professional Bloggers Will Win
Tomorrow's (and I mean tomorrow, not the next decade) marketing game will be played on professional corporate blogging platforms. The companies with the largest number of well-read and respected corporate bloggers will win the marketing and propaganda games. Larger companies will need larger armies of corporate bloggers. The new job description of "professional corporate blogger" will be a very popular one.
To be or not to be, that is the question for the PR firms that will hit the wall at this stage. The ones who are equipped to provide those services whose job descriptions are not yet defined will be tomorrow's brave new PR companies.
Other than that, the day the new SEC, under the White House 2.0 Obama administration, answers the question Jonathan Schwartz asked three years ago, will be the end for most PR companies.
|MarcieCasas 06/08/09 12:21:00 PM EDT
I disagree strongly that PR is extinct. PR will never be extinct for the simple reason that PR is more than just news releases. It is strategic thinking at its best. Yes, social media has changed PR but it will in no way kill it. For any company engaging in social media, it is PR strategy that is driving the interaction. I wrote more about my viewpoint here.
|Loraine Antrim 06/04/09 08:38:01 AM EDT
"Is PR Extinct, Yes." Hmmm. Not the most accurate title. Perhaps more accurate would be, "Is PR Evolving, Yes."
The new order of social media is like any other transformation in our communication process: some organizations will be early adopters, some will come along slowly and some will not make the transition.
PR IS adapting. The number of PR firms understanding the value of new web 2.0 technologies grows daily. Fuat, you had experience with such a small number of firms, it is truly faulty sampling and totally biased. Sorry that this small experience colored your thinking.
One thing I know about PR, no matter what the medium, if the message is relevant and compelling, it will resonate, whether thru more traditional channels or thru newer vehicles. I do believe based on what I have seen in PR, the industry is not only joining the conversation, it will eventually influence it. Loraine Antrim
|aaronschoenherr 05/27/09 02:49:00 PM EDT
Full disclosure: I co-manage a national PR firm, Greentarget, that my partner and I started 5 years ago. Obviously I'm biased here because if Kircaali is correct, I'm going to need to find another way to pay for my kids' college tuition.
I was intrigued with your position here right up until paragraph 5 where you start your pitch on why Ulitzer will change the world. I'll admit that I wasn't familiar with Ulitzer until now and will save my comments on the site except to say that it looks and feels exactly the way you'd expect from a site that boasts 6,000 authors.
Your premise, that 90 percent of today's PR firms are in business simply because SEC rules dictate that publicly traded companies must communicate information via press release, is ridiculous. Firms whose business model depended heavily on earnings releases faded long before 2006. But there are many firms still in existence who have developed strong businesses and brands focused on helping publicly traded companies communicate strategically and effectively with investors, analysts, etc. It's the difference between a commoditized service (blasting releases out because SEC rules require it) and a strategic one. Pretty simple, really.
Your second premise, that PR firms are "sitting ducks in the way of the social media freight train" is also completely off base. I'll set aside your ridiculous method for evaluating firms based on their knowledge of and use of your own service, and instead focus on the larger issue. The prevalence and increased use of social media networks has created even stronger demand for public relations firms who are able to advise these clients on effective and credible use of these tools. Social media networks have increased the amount of white noise. They've also made it easier for companies to make very public and embarrassing missteps. All of this results in greater demand for a PR firm's services.
It's a growth industry for PR firms, not a threat to their livelihood.
Your third premise, that the most successful corporations will be the ones who hire the most professional bloggers, misses the point completely. It's not about volume and who can broadcast the most, it's about the quality of the message, whether it's being received, how it's being processed and the impact on an organization's bottom line.
These factors depend on an authentic, credible dialogue initiated by organizations in a targeted, strategic manner that can be measured, evaluated and adapted as necessary. An army of corporate bloggers achieves none of this.
Your rudimentary understanding of the profession has resulted in an article that is full of holes. Am I being harsh? Maybe. I'd argue that the headline you chose for this article warrants a strong response.
While I'm on the topic of authenticity and credibility, the Ulitzer site has a very provocative and interesting quote: "In five years TIME, Harvard Business Review, Scientific American, and Condé Nast Traveler will be replaced by Ulitzer." What's interesting about this quote is that there's no attribution. It begs the question "According to who?" This is exactly my point.
By the way, it looks like you could use a PR firm of your own:

I agree that PR professionals who are not actively engage in social media and new technologies will not survive. I also believe the fall of traditional media will accelerate as well. The communications industry has basically evolved overnight. The greatest challenge for PR firms will be placing value on social media work that has basically over-simplified the business of communication and relationship building. I predict an increase in the need for professionals who can handle crisis matters, public affairs campaigns and issues management since those fall outside of "basic" PR.
|DougPoretz 05/27/09 10:06:12 AM EDT
I've been predicting the death of the PR business for a long time -- see my December 2008 predictions for the PR business here: http://tinyurl.com/pegfhd
But at the same time, I think the ad business will also die. I believe the entire communications business is in the midst of a largely misunderstood revolution. But the biggest issue isn't "new media" or technology, or even shrinking budgets, etc. It is the current business model -- my thoughts on that are here: http://tinyurl.com/dk8ked
|arthuryann 05/27/09 09:42:07 AM EDT
The public relations industry has been reading about its demise at the hands of social media for about a year and a half now. We've all see what Scoble, Arrington, Calacanis and now, Kircaali (who mistakenly believes that publicity = public relations, while promoting his as the industry-killing app), have said.
The fact is, public relations isn't declining at the hands of social media; it's gaining, and will continue to gain.
Don Wright, Ph.D., APR, Fellow PRSA, who is a professor of public relations at Boston College and editor of PRSA's peer-reviewed PR Journal, estimates that approximately 70 percent of all social media programs are being driven by public relations professionals.
Here are 10 reasons why:
1. Social media puts the consumer in control, and public relations professionals are accustomed to operating in an environment that cedes control to others.
2. Public relations has always been about engaging with key audiences to establish mutually beneficial relationships.
3. Public relations is a two-way discipline. It disseminates information about an organization and brings back information for analysis and response.
4. Like all the different forms of traditional media — television, radio, newspaper, magazines — social media is a conduit to engage audiences and build relationships. It's not about the technology, it's about the people who use it.
5. The decline of traditional media is encouraging public relations professionals to identify new means of engaging audiences and "earning" new media.
6. Public relations is a content-creation discipline. The written word, certainly, but also photos, audio and video, which are expected with online engagement.
7. In an environment where information moves at tremendous speed, public relations is one marketing and communications discipline that can keep pace.
8. For a medium built on authenticity and the ability to trust "people like me," public relations is a builder of trust and keeper of the corporate conscious. We speak in a credible voice, while adhering to ethical communications principles.
9. Public relations educators are some of the leading sources of social media research.
As for number 10., I'll just cite Edward R. Murrow, who may have said it best: "The newest computer can merely compound, at speed, the oldest problem in the relations between human beings, and in the end the communicator will be confronted with the old problem, of what to say and how to say it."
Arthur Yann is vice president of public relations for the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA).
|megfly 05/27/09 09:02:32 AM EDT
Interesting conclusion, I applaud your research. But I believe your PR analysis is missing a key component: strategy. PR firms, at least most successful ones today, are not just about releasing press releases and building relationships with media members. Strategy is one of the best key components to successful PR campaigns.
The list of 'new paradigm' technologies that now surrounds us appears to be at an all time high. From cloud computing and Big Data analytics to Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) and the Internet of Things (IoT), today we have to deal with what the industry likes to call 'paradigm shifts' at every level of IT. This is disruption; of course, we understand that – change is almost always disruptive.

Help! Wood in the kitchen?
We are closing in on our kitchen. It is an open-plan apartment, and both our contractor and designer are pushing us to run the oil-finished natural cherry wood flooring throughout, including the kitchen. We agree that that would be the most beautiful, but we are paranoid about having wood in the kitchen. Our fear is that over time, the various inevitable cooking, eating, and washing splashes and spills, no matter how diligently you go after them, will stain the semi-porous surface and leave it looking splotchy.
Opinions? Solutions?
I had similar apprehensions about wood in the kitchen before we moved to a home 12 yrs ago that had oak floors throughout the open plan. I love it! I cook daily and stand prepping for good amounts of time. Wood floors are kind to my feet & legs.
I keep a Dash & Albert washable rug in front of the sink area & put those little felt protectors on the bottom of the counter stools. The poly finished oak floors are being refinished as part of our kitchen remodel, but they've looked great for the 14 yrs since installation.
Our lakehouse has Carlisle wide pine floors in a deeper shade with a tung oil finish. They show scratches & dings more than the oak, for sure, but that patina is part of their charm. I keep another D&A washable runner behind the island, which is the primary prep space & felt stickers on the bottoms of the stools.
Seven yrs later, they are still beautiful.
Only you know your lifestyle but I wouldn't be afraid to do wood as long as you take reasonable care.
I'm in the middle of renovating due to a water leak from the ice maker hose... By the time we found it, it had damaged multiple cabinets and the wood floor. And then there was the awesome mold we found when we pulled the damaged floor up, requiring new subfloors and new sheetrock halfway up the walls.
I wouldn't put wood in a kitchen again. It's lovely, but not worth it to me.
I hear so many horror stories about leaking water lines to the fridge. It happened to our neighbors over a weekend, and they had to refinish their entire finished basement. I don't use the automatic icemaker in my fridge.
I remodeled my kitchen last summer, and in hindsight I sort of wish I had extended the wood floors in the dining room into the kitchen. But like the OP, I'm a bit paranoid at the potential for disaster.
I cannot help you with the durability of the oil finish, but I can comment on the traditional varnish finished oak floor which I have in my kitchen.
I do use a rug (about 20" x 10') along the work area in front of sinks and range, more for safety (I had polio as a child and slipping is a problem) than for utility or appearance. However, the rug also serves to protect the floor in this high traffic area from the kind of grit and traffic that a kitchen floor takes. And I like the way it brings pattern and color into a largely wood kitchen.
The floors are simply swept every day or two, vacuumed occasionally to get dog hair and dirt out of the corners, and, rarely, washed with a minimum of a simple water and wood-finish compatible detergent and quickly dried.
There have been NO stains and only very slight signs of wear where my husband slides his chair back and forth. Some of the area (all to the viewer's side of the cabinets) is the original oak flooring that dates back 50 plus years. We did have that part of that refinished to match new wood installed during the kitchen remodel (in this pic, the wood under the rug and in front of the fridge.
Again, I cannot speak to the durability of an oil finish.
Personally, I love wood floors in kitchens. I hope some who have experience or knowledge of oil finishes will respond.
Our icemaker also sprang a leak a few years back, we were out of town for the weekend and came home to find it. Our floor is ceramic, it was easily cleaned up and no permanent damage. I think if it had been wood, it would be a different story. I love the warm rich look of wood floors in the kitchen, but for me, the tile is more practical. We also have an eat in kitchen, if we had a wood floor, I imagine the chairs scraping back and forth over time would damage it. Of course, a rug would take care of that, but at the time we installed the tile floor we had 3 small children, so a rug in the kitchen would have required constant shampooing. But I do admire wood floors in other people's kitchens, there is nothing as beautiful as a wood floor.
I guess you could always take precautions and lay a couple of towels down in front of the fridge when you'll be gone for quite awhile. ;) Seriously, I'm in my 2nd kitchen w/wood~hand scraped in this house. It's not site installed, and I'm not familiar with the oil finish, but I think I would opt for a heavier duty finish. I think you could get a lot of water spotting, and sometimes if not cleaned up immediately, will leave a water mark. Engineered flooring is recommended for every room. Even when my dog 'slurps' on the wood, and I'm gone and can't get to it right away, there are no water marks after it's been cleaned up with wood cleaner.
The Oil finish is not a hard shell finish like poly or varnish, and is ideal for a kitchen because of that. If it gets a stain, you can just sand/steel wool the spot and rub some more oil in it with 0000 steel wool. This is also why I prefer it for a table finish.
As far as icemaker disasters, it would be far worse if you had a hard shell finish peel off. If you go out of town for an extended period, turn the water off.
Wood flooring throughout is certainly beautiful and attractive. But I also think using a distinctive tile in the kitchen can be an eye-catching design element on its own merits, even aside from functionality.
It can give a more "designed" appearance, like you put some extra thought into it and went the extra mile to make it stand out. If you go that route, I would go with something like a natural stone laid in a pattern, like a pinwheel, running bond, diagonal, Versailles, etc.
I love wood floors throughout, and continuing the wood would give a cohesive look, but if you are uncomfortable with it, it's not the right choice for you. There are other choices that will work. A strong contrast between wood and tile colors would make for a choppy look, but a tile chosen to coordinate nicely and in complementary tones would look great.
Cherry floors are lovely but cherry is not a very durable wood. Even heart pine is about 30% harder than cherry. Don't expect your floors to stay dent free, especially in a kitchen. If it were me, I would use something else and if it were solid wood, I would definitely put a professional finish on it. Oil finish with nothing on top, no way.
What climate do you live in? In my neck of the woods, tile is icy cold in winter, especially first thing in the morning.
The OP is concerned with cleanability - I couldn't stand my previous kitchen's tile floor because the grout was stained, and where it wasn't stained, it had turned dingy over time. I don't care how well you seal grout, it will stain because something like a tomato sauce drop will seep under the seal, since the seal tends to lift a bit from the grout over time.
My current kitchen has oak wood floors that were installed in the '90's. I have kids who are never careful, and a dog and cats all of whom have skidded around on the wood floor, and it still looks great. My floors do have what my contractor called a "gymnasium finish" which helps with durability.

We've had oak floor in our Kitchen since 1986, re-finished once about 10 years ago. Raised two boys and an English Bulldog, and the floor still looks great today. We had an ice maker incident several years ago, and a few boards under and in front of the fridge cupped, but flattened out within a few weeks.
We have red oak floors throughout with a poly finish. The wood floors are almost 25 years old with a second sanding. I am amazed at how durable wood can be. I have lived int eh house for 9 years, the floors have survived a leaky dishwasher, hair balls, spills, dogs, and numerous partys. We live in the Chicago area. Wood is actually pretty forgiving, it did cup a little bit after the dishwasher leaks but then it dried out. On the flip side I have had tile, not as big of fan, but if I lived in a warmer climate I would consider it. Just dont drop anything.
You might want to read up on oil finishes before you make your decision. I found quite a bit of information from a quick online search.
We have polyurethaned oak floors in our house. They're now 18 years old, and although the rest of the house still looks fabulous, the kitchen is definitely showing wear and tear. We will need to have them sanded and refinished. If they were oil finished, they could be spot repaired or just reoiled, so that's a consideration.
I love my wood floors, even in the kitchen. I would definitely choose them again if I had to do it over. They are warm looking and easy to keep clean. They feel warm underfoot.
However, if you're the kind of person who wants everything to look perfect or worries about the inevitable dents and scratches, you might want to think hard before going with wood, esp. a softer wood like cherry (which I love).
Most importantly, don't let anyone talk you into something that you don't want. Listen to them, ask questions, learn as much as you can, then make the decision you feel comfortable with.
I have red oak floors in my kitchen, living, dining, and hall. It's 5", site-finished, with an oil-based finish. I'm fortunate to have never had a leak in the kitchen. Other than the patina from house cats, it's what gives my house its warmth and heart. I wouldn't hesitate to have it in another kitchen. I love tile floors in my bathrooms, but can't imagine my kitchen without its wood floor.
Our hose leaked in the cabinets, and it was a slow leak for weeks in the back of the cabinet before it spread out to the front where we could see it. It's not always as simple as putting a rug in front of the fridge, or turning water off when you go out of town.
OP, we ended up putting one of the new wood-look tile floors in. We've had it in a bathroom for a while, and really love it. I'm not sure if something like that interests you... We went with a beachy/weathered grey, and didn't try to match it to our wood floors.
I haven't installed it yet but our plan is to go with LVP that have a wood look throughout the house.
My parents and my brother have installed then and so far, no problems.
I personally like it because it looks like wood floors with none of the upkeep of wood floors.
My parents ice maker had a slow leak and it destroyed the subfloor under a vinyl tile floor. A leak around the shower in my bathroom destroyed the wood subfloor under the ceramic tile and underlayment. I don't think leaks are necessarily the best reason to choose one finish floor material over another. Exposure to surface moisture maybe.
Thanks for all your advice. What prompted my question were the following events:
We have impervious tile in our current kitchen. Until we considered putting wood in the new kitchen, I never realized how many times it gets wet, but it's really quite often. Not REALLY wet, but little splashes here and there. We never paid much attention to it (sometimes we don't even wipe it up if it's just water) and the tile looks as good as new after 8 years. But now, every time it gets wet, I think: "What if it were wood?"
Also, after 8 years without a single leak, both the ice maker in the fridge AND the DW sprung serious leaks (almost at the same time!), so badly they damaged some sheetrock in the basement. Again, despite having been soaked for days, the tile looks the same as it always did. But...what if it had been wood?
BTW, for this (and other) reasons we are NOT buying a fridge with an ice maker for the new place. But you can't get away from having a DW (although we ARE buying a Miele).
We have had hardwood in our kitchen for almost 2 years. We were planning on heated tile but were convinced by GW to go with the wood and are very happy we did.
We had a dog that would make a mess with water. Have a cat who throws up on it. People drop ice cubes and leave them to melt. All kinds of liquid gets splattered and left to dry. I clean the floor with a steam mop. Wet towels get left on the floor. With all that there is no water damage. The floor is easier to stand on and warmer than if it had been tile.
When remodeling one of the bldg inspectors veto'd DH request to put a floor drain in a bathroom to prevent damage if there was an overflow. He reminded us that these things don't happen very often and that is what insurance is for. Get an alarm if you are concerned.
I have wooden floors in much of my home, including a wooden floor in my bathroom (around a free standing tub). I have wooden counters in my kitchen, including on either side of my sink (with integrated runnels).
Few things are 100% impervious. But IMHO people fear wood too much.
Since you are building new, see if you can find a tile that coordinates well with the hardwood floor and flow well. I really liked the tile next to the hardwood in the last house we owned and I was tempted to remove the the hardwood in the kitchen of the house we bought last year.
It would have been very expensive and I couldn't see a natural dividing line between the tile and hardwood so we just had the hardwood refinished (Brazilian cherry). I like the look, but I don't like the upkeep. I never worried about the tile and I did not mind standing on the tile at all. We lived in a cold climate and I wore slippers.
I am always checking the wood floor for water spots, dirt, etc. I clean the wood floor a lot more.
The plus is that this floor is much cleaner than the tile floor was:)
Have had hickory flooring in my entire house including kitchen for 2 years & we love it. I did get a waterproof large waterhog mat for the dog bowl, but it has been great. My 8 month old puppy spews water everywhere sometimes after a walk, but I either mop it up or wipe it up & it's fine. I am not doing this constantly either. I am not real big on upkeep, but my floor has been wonderful. Don't have an ice maker, but luckily my DW is at the end of the run for the wood & we have a spare box of wood in case of a future leak that is not caught in time.

Overhyped and targeted I think for young teens and high schoolers. But for $1 more its much better to get L'Oreal or even a better Maybelline line choice.All it does is color lashes, which is fine, but then it dries out quick, melts in any warm weather, smudges with any amount of moisture, and ultimately It flakes, smudges, falls off for any length you build in a short period of time even under perfect conditions. Its heavily promoted so there is a misperception that its popular. But its just mediocre. Won't last in a full day at the office.
Update: Sep 2013
Still don't like it. I'm not against drugstore mascaras, but if you're going to do drugstore, may as well spend $1-$2 more and get L'Oreal Voluminous, Revlon, Maybelline Volume Express. Almay, E.L.F. anything but this that will do more than tint your lashes and smudge everywhere. #Aintnobodygottimeforthat

This is my HG mascara. I used to think the best products were the most expensive but after spending $25 on a Dior mascara that I hated, I realized my error. You aren't supposed to keep mascara for more than a few months so buying cheap makes sense. I like this mascara's simplicity, price, and result. It's never clumpy, I can replace it often without breaking the bank, and I can usually buy it in a pack of two. Love it.

I've tried many different mascaras (MAC, Estée Lauder, cover girl, revlon, Clinique, etched....) I ALWYS go back to this mascara. It's the perfect black, lengthens lashes, make them look so long and full. Only $4 and definitely beats the makeup counter brand mascaras at the mall. I've bought this again and again for years and will always! I took one lippie off b/c smudging can occurr if your not very careful.

I wanted to try mascara, so I got one for Christmas, and it was this one, I gave it a try and I absolutely loved it! If I splash water on my face with this one it doesn't smudge, or give me panda eyes! It's clump free and lengthening enough for every day! This is the BEST mascara EVER! I would definitely buy this again, and it's affordable!

I know, I know - beauty editors top pick, a classic, etc. But this stuff is pretty terrible. It smudges everywhere, goes on thick and goopy - clumping your lashes and leaving a great deal of mess in its wake. The wash-off formula doesn't wash off well, so you end up having to use some almond oil or makeup remover to deal with it. I have naturally long lashes (lucky, I know - too bad they are blond), but I think this stuff makes them look stumpy! The brush leaves much to be desired since there is a lot of space between the bristles.
Now, I wasn't using "blackest black" but I think I can safely say that all the colours are likely the same quality of texture. It is only a $1 CAN cheaper than some of the other drugstore brands - and I would take my money elsewhere. Even maybelline makes other great mascaras (I am liking "plush" - even though it is an ugly tube and "full n' soft" never fails). I basically used this for a week and threw it out.

It's true, this stuff is the blackest black of all mascaras! I love that about it. However, it smudges very easily. And that's bad. :( I don't like the feel of waterproof mascaras, or I would just use the waterproof version. Does what it says if you don't mind raccoon eyes.

Why does this have such low reviews?! I LOVE this mascara, it's the best I've ever used--and I have used A LOT. This intensifies my lashes, makes them look super long and voluminous, without looking cakey, goopy, and thick. It doesn't clump, and goes on very smoothly. I highly recommend this product!

Is there a word stronger than hate? If so then I stronger than hate this mascara, all of the Great Lash versions.
*Even the blackest black isn't very black
*Brush is terrible (makes my lashes look shorter!!)
*Ugly packaging (it's not vintage, it's just ugly)
*Doesn't irritate my eyes
*Good for a daywear, work mascara (it's better than using nothing at all)
*Cheap as dirt
I pick this up now and then but hate it everytime. You never fail to disappoint me, Maybelline.

This review is from: ZEIKOS ZE-TR201P 77" Professional Heavy Duty Photo & Video Tripod
Pros: Absolutely great product - best in price range, for sure. Hits every point exactly as advertised - very heavy duty yet lightweight, fluid head with good control in all directions, locking mount plate, and its every inch of the featured 77" tall... by far the tallest tripod I've seen, and its solid.
Cons: None so far.
Other Thoughts: Had a rubber o-ring split & fall off the center pole upon removing from box. Looks like it was there as a spacer between center pole & tripod frame when the pole was in down position. Hasn't impacted performance, but no fun to have bits falling off new toys....READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Acer V223WEJbd Black 22" 5ms Widescreen LCD Monitor 250 cd/m2 ACM 50000:1(1000:1)
Pros: Had two Acer V223w's, along with older Samsung SyncMaster 225bw, running in CrossFireX for the past year or so. For a budget-level product (at least in price) , the Acers held their own very well against the more expensive Samsung. Last week the Sammy finally died & NewEgg again had promotional pricing on the Acer V223w - PERFECT TIMING! Now my CrossFireX setup runs the same monitor at all three points, and the difference is immediately noticeable. The 3 Acer V223w's together really "pop", and they all look & perform with identical results. While they aren't 30" running 2560x1600 (or 3x @ 7680x1600 CrossFireX) they still look great for their size & place in the market - and obviously their place in the budget discussion. They've got my recommendation.
Cons: None - seriously, none. You get what you pay for.
Other Thoughts: NewEgg continues to ROCK! Old monitor went bad late Fri evening & ordered a new Acer V223w Sat AM. Monitor was packed & shipped first thing Mon & arrived Tues AM. E-Commerce doesn't get any better that that!
Thank You!!
This review is from: Maxsa 40218 Motion-Activated Dual Head LED Security Spotlight
Pros: For what is really nothing more than 2 small LED flashlights on a battery-operated motion sensor, this product delivers well above its weight. Together the two heads put out respectable amount of light & sensor is strong enough to capture motion 30' away without tripping on leaves in the wind. Solar-recharge batteries run the lights 2.5hrs on one charge. Can't beat the price/performance.
Cons: None
Other Thoughts: Ordered, shipped, and delivered in less than 48hrs. NewEgg ROCKS!!READ FULL REVIEW

What's eating my maple?
and how do I stop it?
I have a Seiryu and a Coral Bark right next to it that don't seem to be suffering from the same symptoms. The Coral Bark has a little spider living in it. I left him alone since I figured he would keep other insects away. Any advice? Thanks.
From the pictures is difficult to clearly tell. But, the "under side" picture appears to have browning around the edges of the "holes". This leads me to believe that the damage is more a bacterial or fungal pathogen in stead of an insect problem. Try a systemic fungicide, when watering do not get water on the foliage, and see if that helps.

When I was approaching seventh grade, I realized I was an introvert. That summer, Omega Teen Camp (OTC) helped me find the social and outgoing part of myself and embrace it. OTC is a warm, open, and welcoming place. That made it really easy for me to just go up to someone and say, "Hi." There's no reason for pretense. There are no charades—you meet other campers and counselors and they're not afraid to be exactly who they are. Some of my closest friends, to this day, are people I met at camp. More
Compassion in action is paradoxical and mysterious. It is absolute, yet continually changing. It accepts that everything is happening exactly as it should, and it works with a full-hearted commitment to change. More

An Interview With Stephanie Coontz
Omega: You say marriage has changed more in the past 30 years than in the past 3,000 years. You've said that the very traits that make marriage in our contemporary society more rewarding have also made it less stable. How so? More
An Interview With Stephanie Coontz
Omega: You've noted that the gains of feminism in achieving gender equality interact in contradictory ways with growing economic inequality. What is the most urgent role of feminism going forward? More
When I showed up for Omega Teen Camp at the age of 15, I was overweight and introverted and I didn't have any friends. I guess you could say I came from a broken home. My parents divorced when I was 12, and after that, my motivation evaporated. I started doing poorly in school. I had serious issues with my father. And I didn't do the normal things kids do, like go to the park and play ball. Instead, I'd stand on the sidelines or draw or play video games. More
In practicing mindfulness, we can learn to effectively integrate different parts of the brain and mediate internal conflicts. There is a basic neuroscience concept, "Nerve cells that fire together, wire together." Due to recent findings of neural plasticity, which is the ability for the connections in our brains to change and adapt throughout our lives, we now understand that our brains can generate stronger and healthier neural connections based on our mental habits.

My Adventures at Omega Teen Camp
I was an angsty 13-year-old when I showed up for Omega Teen Camp. Middle school had been really hard for me. But things were different at camp.

You can also sign up for free hosted WordPress blogs. You can go to WordPress.com. There are also other blogging platforms that you can use like Blogger but I like WordPress and it is very easy to use. The first step in starting a blog is to find a domain name that you like. I found a website where you can type in the domain that you want and see if it is registered. The website is Instant Domain Search. After you found a domain that you like and it is not registered by someone else the next step is to register the domain through a registrar. There are many registrars' out there. One of the best ones and World's Largest Registrar is GoDaddy.com. I use GKG and GoDaddy for all of my domains. GoDaddy has a lot of deals and coupons that you can get and use on the internet. You have a choice of many different top level domains. Top level domain is the last part of a domain name. My website is www.gregellison.net. The top level domain would be ".net". The most common top level domains are com, net, and org. The com is meant for commercial businesses, net is for network, and org is for non for profit organizations. If you want to see all of the top level domains that are out there go to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Internet_top-level_domains Find the right hosting company The next step in making a blog I am going to talk about Hosting. What is a web hosting company? It is a company that provides a way for people to access your website. There are tones and tones of webhosting companies out there. There are a lot of fly by nighters and there are a lot of established hosting companies that provide a very good service. You want to find a hosting company that has good uptime, has good support. You want to know that your hosting provider is going to take the extra step to help you when you need help. The hosting provider that I use to host my websites is a company called JaguarPc. Jag has an active forum that you can get support and general information. They also have a really nice ticket system that they made themselves. You can also call them if you need help. By: Greg Ellison www.gregellison.net Page 3 of 8 If you have a blog sometimes hosting providers have an affiliate programs that you can earn money for referring people. I spend $5.97 a month. I also host other websites that pay for my hosting fees. You want a hosting provider that gives you unlimited Mysql databases, enough disk space for growth, and enough bandwidth. If you need to host other websites you might want a provider that gives you multihosted domains. You don't want to go for the free hosting companies because they will bomb bard your visitors with advertisements. When you host somewhere free it doesn't look professional when you are trying to make money. I would also go to forums and ask people what they think are the best hosting providers. One good forum that you can get good feedback is called www.webhostingtalk.com. How to install WordPress WordPress is one of the most popular blog platforms out there. WordPress is very easy to setup and you can find themes and plug-ins for WordPress. You want to go to www.wordpress.org and click on the red square on the top right side that says download. You want to click on the red rectangle that is on the Download WordPress page. You want to download the file that fits your operating system. I will pick the zip file. You want to save the zip file to a location that you can get to. I usually scan my files that I download off the internet first. I have to plug the security part. You should always scan your files. I will open the zip file and extract it to a folder. I will then open my ftp program to upload my WordPress files to the directory that I picked for my multihosted domain. You then want to rename the wp-config-sample.php file to wp-config.php. You then want to fill in the database details. define('DB_NAME', 'putyourdbnamehere'); // The name of the database define('DB_USER', 'usernamehere'); // Your MySQL username define('DB_PASSWORD', 'yourpasswordhere'); // ...and password define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); // 99% chance you won't need to change this value You want to change these fields that are in yellow. These fields tell WordPress vital information about the database that you created. It wants to know the By: Greg Ellison www.gregellison.net Page 4 of 8 database name, the database user that has full access to the database, the password for the database user, and the database host. After you have all these things done, then you want to open up your browser and go to yourblog.com/wp-admin/install.php to start the install process. At the first screen you want to type your Blog Title and your website email address. After you type your title and your email then press Install WordPress button. The next screen is going to tell you that it was Successful at creating the blog and it will give you your username and password to get into the blog. You copy your password and then login to the blog. You want to change the temporary password right away before you forget it. By: Greg Ellison www.gregellison.net Page 5 of 8 If you don't want to go this route and if you have CPANEL with your webhosting you can use Fantastico. You can use Fantastico to automatically install any scripts that are listed in the menu. Find the theme that fits you There are tones of places to download free themes. You don't want to spend the money when you are starting out in the world of blogging. I still use a free theme that I found on a website. You should download bunch of different themes and try them out. In the new version of WordPress you can preview the theme before you activate it. If you don't like the theme you can just delete it from the theme directory in your FTP program. WordPress has just begun letting new themes to be uploaded on to their theme directory. You can also search on Google on the search phrase of "free WordPress themes" you will get a bunch of different sites that will allow you to download themes. Find the Most Critical Plug-ins for your blog There are a lot of plug-ins available for WordPress. You can go to www.wordpress.org and find the plug-in directory. In this section I am going to list out the most critical plug-ins that a new blogger will want. I think the first plug-in that you should download is called Wordpress Automatic Upgrade. This plug-in saves you time when you have to update your blog. The second plug-in that is critical to your blog is Google XML Sitemaps. This plug-in will help build sitemaps of your site that is compatible with Google, MSN, yahoo, and ASK.com. The third plug-in is called Akismet. This plug-in is already installed by default but you have to get a free API key from WordPress.com. This plug-in catches all spam that your blog will get. The fourth plug-in is called All in one SEO pack. This plug-in will help with your search engine optimization. You want to get ranked in search engines so this plug-in will help with that. If you want to deliver ads on your website then you want to download Adsense Manager. This plug-in will Control and arrange your AdSense & Referral blocks on your WordPress blog. If you are using FeedBurner to track your RSS subscriber then you want to download FeedBurner FeedSmith. By: Greg Ellison www.gregellison.net Page 6 of 8 I think this is a good list to start out with. I would go to your favorite blogs and see what kind of plug-ins they are using. How to monetize your blog There are different ways to monetize your blog. I am going to talk about couple of ways to do this. The ways to monetize your blog is doing paid postings, use affiliate companies, and put Google Adsense or Yahoo publisher network banners on your website. I think the easiest way to get money out of your blog is doing paid postings. Some companies will give you a keyword and you just have to create blog post with around 60 words. They will usually pay you $5.00 for these posts. It doesn't take a lot to write a 60 word post about a keyword. If you have a website that has a high page rank you can get a lot more money for the paid postings. Here are the different companies that will allow you to do paid postings that I have signed up for. www.payu2blog.com www.payperpost.com www.sponsoredreviews.com Another way to monetize your blog is to use affiliate marketing. I think this is one of the hardest ways to monetize your blog. Affiliate marketing is selling other people's products. This can be having people sign up on a web form, or people buying a product on a website. Here some companies that helps you with affiliate marketing. www.cj.com www.amazon.com www.clickbank.com You can also add Google Adsense or Yahoo publisher network banner on your blog. These networks will show banners on your blog based on your content. A user needs to click on the banner in order for you to get money. This is also an easy way to get money. www.google.com/adsense http://publisher.yahoo.com People always say that you have to diversify your income. What I mean about this is that you want to use different revenue streams. You want to do paid posting, reviews, Google Adsense, sponsored ads and so on. By: Greg Ellison www.gregellison.net Page 7 of 8 About the Author and why I created this eBook My name is Greg Ellison. I live in Syracuse, NY. I wanted to create this so that people can setup their own blogs for themselves and make extra money while on the internet. If you want to make money on the internet it takes time and patience. I make around 60 dollars a month but it is not a lot but it is still income that you can put away and save for a rainy day. I also like to call the extra money that I make my beer money that I can use when I go out with friends. If you need to contact me my email address is firstname.lastname@example.com and my blog is www.gregellison.net. By: Greg Ellison www.gregellison.net Page 8 of 8

Only a few have applied for CMAT-2
If you are an aspirant for an MBA seat under the government quota in the State and have neither appeared nor applied for the CMAT, you may end up wasting a whole year before you can try again.
This is because appearing for the nationally-administered CMAT is now mandatory for MBA admissions, as it has replaced the State's Post Graduate Common Entrance Test (PGCET) from the academic year 2013-14.
But, with the Higher Education Department officials in the State learning that only a small percentage of the aspiring students had applied for CMAT-2 scheduled this month, the State government has decided to go to the rescue of the students.
According to the officials, the second CMAT has elicited very poor response due to lack of awareness among the students, as a result of which the government will make an appeal to the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) to either conduct another CMAT this April or May, or allow the PGCET to be conducted this time.
The AICTE is conducting two CMATs — one was held in September-October last year, and another is scheduled for February 21 to 25.
The number of candidates from Karnataka appearing for CMAT-1 is also believed to be poor.
Each candidate is eligible to appear in both the exams and the better of two scores will be used for the admission for each academic year.
Last year, 19,900 candidates appeared for the PGCET for MBA seats, which was conducted by the KEA for the first time (until then, the Visvesvaraya Technological University was conducting the exams).
Sources in the Higher Education Department added, "We have written to the AICTE to either conduct another CMAT or allow us to conduct PGCET this time."
When contacted, S.S. Mantha, Chairman, AICTE, said that the council would look into the request "sympathetically". "We will try accommodating all requests. We had even extended the registration window by a week because of requests," he said. The registration window for CMAT-2 ended on January 13. He also said that CMAT-test 2 will be conducted in 114 centres across 62 cities.

Vegetarian Stuffing
6 cups bread, diced
2 tablespoons margarine
1 medium onion, diced
3 stalks celery, sliced
2 large carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon rosemary
1/4 teaspoon thyme
1/4 teaspoon sage
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
3 tablespoons raisins
1/2 to 3/4 of a red delicious apple, optional
1/4 cup walnuts
1/4 cup pecans
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 1/2 cups vegetable stock
pepper, to taste
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place vegan bread in a 9 x 13 baking pan and place in oven for about 15 minutes, until the vegan bread is well toasted. Meanwhile, warm the margarine in a saucepan and saute onion, celery and carrots over medium heat until onion is translucent.
2. Remove vegan bread from oven and add onion mixture, herbs, parsley, raisins, optional apple, nuts and salt. Mix well. Carefully drizzle the stuffing with vegetable stock and toss gently.
3. Bake, uncovered, for 20-30 minutes. Season with black pepper if desired.
I made this stuffing again for the second year in a row and it turned out great. This is now my official go-to stuffing recipe. One small note to self for next year: The quality of the bread counts. I made two pans of stuffing this year, and one had mostly high-quality slightly stale fresh bread from a local bakery, and the second pan had mostly defrosted cheap hot dog and burger buns that I'd thrown in the freezer last summer. The pan with the better quality bread turned out much better overall, the cheap bread ended up pretty mushy.
This recipe looks awesome! I can't wait to try it out for Thanksgiving. I absolutely loathe onions though... maybe just add less or none at all.
Anybody else omit the onions?
I make this without the nuts to reduce the calories, but it's better with them!
The fresh parsley is crucial.
I use oil instead of margarine.
It helps to toast the bread cubes thoroughly & add the liquids a little at a time. Too little is better than too much unless you like mushy stuffing.
I tried fresh cranberries once instead of raisins, but liked the raisins better.
If you can find a wholegrain sourdough, go for it - the tang is nice.
I use less broth & substitute with the following:
Dry Sherry or other dry white wine - about a half cup
Vegan Worcestershire Sauce - about 1 TBSP
Lemon juice - 3-4 TBSP
This is a WONDERFUL recipe & very easy to adapt to your liking.
We made this for Thanksgiving, because every Thanksgiving I crave that horrible Stove Top stuff. Because of this, we omitted a ton of stuff including the raisins, nuts, celery, and apples and it still tasted wonderful.
Yum! Very good...even better than I remember stuffing being!! THANK YOU for making my table complete and festive!
Really good!I added granny smith apples instead of red ones and it worked perfectly. I will def be making this again!
:)>>> Can we say AMAZING??!!! Everyone said this was the best stuffing that I have ever made!!! I left out the nuts - my son is allergic - and the raisins - mom HATES raisins!!! - but followed the rest of the rest exactly.
YUM!!!! Definitly a keeper!!
I'm going to try and make this with my own bread, so does anyone know about how many slices of bread it would take to make this? I'll dice before making?
