I am something of a workaholic. One of the good/bad things about being self-employed is that the harder you work, the more money you make/the more awesome things you create/the more opportunities come your way. And even when I'm making enough money and I'm up to my eyeballs in work, it's hard to turn things down. Writing for a celebrity trainer? Sure! Article about how to speak Cajun? Yes!
And despite all this nose-to-the-grindstone working, I'm not great at treating myself. Or rather, the 'treats' I allow myself are usually along the lines of $6 worth of Vietnamese food or a bi-monthly pedi at a dicey salon. The thought of dropping more than $50 dollars on something that's not totally necessary gives me The Guilts. Hardcore. Even when I can totally afford it. And even when I totally deserve it.
But then! Last week I happened upon these earrings. And I'm fairly sure that they need to be a part of my life. Every day for the next several years. Despite having enough money to buy these without bouncing a check, I've spent the last week periodically visiting the website, forwarding the link to friends, imagining what I could wear them with, worrying about losing them. Which is silly! Most women I know wear wedding bands worth thousands of dollars! And I could buy these without breaking the bank!
So I finally (finally!) bought a pair and now I'm waiting anxiously by the mailbox for them to arrive. And you know what? Clicking that 'buy now' button was the most adult I've felt in ages. I've signed apartment leases on my own, I'm an LLC, I have an intern forpetessake, but purchasing Real, Grown Up, Not-From-Target jewelry (after probably excessive consideration) made me feel awesome and adult in a way that few other things have.
How do you treat yourself? Do you ever find it hard to truly 'splash' out? What purchases make you feel like an adult?

Andre Carson on Principles & ValuesDemocrat | |
On January 2, 1969, [three newly elected and six previously elected] African-American Members of Congress met as the Democratic Select Committee. On February 2, 1971 the group agreed to be known as the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC).
The goals of the CBC are to positively influence the course of events pertinent to African-Americans and others of similar experience and situation, and to achieve greater equity for persons of African descent in the design and content of domestic and international programs and services. The Caucus has not only been at the forefont of issues affecting African-Americans, but has garnered international acclaim for advancing agendas aimed at protecting human rights and civil rights for all people. Today, the Congressional Black Caucus stands 38 members strong.
Upon her election as Chair of the CBC for the 107th Congress, Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson expounded: �Whether the issue is popular or unpopular, simple or complex, the CBC has fought for thirty years to protect the fundamentals of democracy. The Caucus is committed to ensuring that the standard of living for minorities in America does not retrogress, but instead rises to meet the expectations of both our ancestors and our children. The Congressional Black Caucus is probably the closest group of legislators on the Hill. We work together almost incessantly, we are friends and, more importantly, a family of freedom fighters. Our diversity makes us stronger, and the expertise of all of our members has helped us be effective beyond our numbers.�
There is overwhelming evidence of official misconduct, deliberate fraud and an attempt to suppress voter turnout by unlawful means that were used to produce George W. Bush�s false victory. The preponderance of the available evidence points to Vice President Al Gore as the actual winner of the most votes in Florida and he should have been awarded the state�s electoral votes.
Vice President Al Gore may have conceded his judicial contest, but that is irrelevant. There is not provision for the concession of candidates in the Constitution. There is, however, a process set out in law for Congress to consider challenges to electoral votes. The Congress, on behalf of all Americans, is the final judge of how much election fraud to accept.
The hearings held by the NAACP clearly showed that there were massive violations of the Voting Rights Act, and that tens of thousands of Floridians were denied due process when they were removed from the voter rolls without notice. Still others were intimidated by police checkpoints set up near polling places. In Miami-Dade and Broward, investigations by independent news organizations have found hundreds of ineligible persons who were allowed to vote. There clearly were significant inequities in assigning what turned out to be non-working voting machines to precincts that were heavily African-American in Miami-Dade. We would not tolerate any of these errors if they took place in some other country. Is our duty to our own country any less?
Millions of Americans have already expressed their public outrage at the myriad injustices which occurred in the making of George W. Bush�s mistaken victory. But public outrage is not enough. The laws of this country provide for the objection which we herein make on behalf of freedom, justice and democracy. We, Members of the Congressional Black Caucus, therefore wholeheartedly object to the acceptance of the presidential electors from Florida.
Scoring system for 2014: Ranges from 0% (supports separation of church & state) to 100% (opposed to separation of church & state).
About the AU (from their website, www.au.org):Americans United for Separation of Church and State (AU) is a religious liberty watchdog group. Founded in 1947, the organization educates Americans about the importance of church-state separation in safeguarding religious freedom. AU is a nonpartisan organization dedicated to preserving the constitutional principle of church-state separation as the only way to ensure religious freedom for all Americans.

Pirates aim to reclaim top spot in NL Central
Lohse, Brewers look to have their say in division race
The opener of a three-game series in Pittsburgh on Tuesday features two pitchers trending in opposite directions.
With the Pirates battling for playoff position, left-hander Jeff Locke has scuffled of late with six-straight winless starts and a 1-3 record in his last eight outings. Locke lasted just four innings against the Giants on Thursday, allowing three earned runs on five hits, while walking four and striking out three.
"I've been throwing and missing on the corners a lot more, because I definitely don't want to miss [in the] middle," said Locke. "If I could go out there and pump the strike zone, I would. Sometimes, [I'm] giving hitters more credit than they deserve; I have to realize it's not that easy to hit a fastball down the middle."
Brewers starter Kyle Lohse, however, has 13 quality starts in his last 16 outings and holds a 2.53 ERA in that span.
On Aug. 20, Lohse beat his former team, the Cards, with six quality innings. Lohse allowed three earned runs on six hits, while walking two and striking out four. After his last start, Lohse said he takes pride in beating teams in playoff contention.
"I don't put any more emphasis on any one game over the other," said Lohse, who won 16 games for the Cardinals last season. "The team did a great job of battling back after I put us in a little hole. Other than that, it doesn't mean any more beating [the Cardinals]. I know we have a stretch here where we play a lot of teams contending for playoff spots, and I don't care who it is, it feels good to kind of hurt teams' chances."
The Pirates enter Tuesday a half-game behind the Cardinals for first place in the National League Central Division -- after St. Louis defeated Cincinnati, 8-6, on Monday night -- and Sunday's 4-0 loss to the Giants ended a grueling stretch of 13 out of 16 games on the road. Pittsburgh ended the stretch 6-10 and opens up a much needed six-game homestand against the Brewers and Cardinals on Tuesday.
"I've been pleased with the preparation," Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said. "We got off to a rough start [getting swept in Colorado], but have picked it up this trip. Now, we're looking forward to getting home for a while."
The Pirates' finish out their schedule with 17 home games and 15 on the road.
Pirates: Hurdle will point to Burnett, Liriano in playoffs
Pirates manager Clint Hurdle plans to stick with A.J. Burnett and Francisco Liriano to lead his rotation if the Pirates make the postseason.
Burnett and Liriano were stellar in back-to-back games at San Diego.
"When they are on their game, they can be a force," Hurdle said. "And they can beat a good team. I just like the way we're going about our business, throwing our best two guys back to back. We're trying to get something done."
Brewers: Roenicke chooses to rest Aoki
Brewers manager Ron Roenicke held Norichika Aoki out of the starting lineup on Sunday despite his leadoff hitter being healthy enough to play. The Brewers right fielder, who missed Wednesday's game with patellar tendinitis in his right knee, pinch-hit in the ninth.
"He's fine. He could play [Sunday]," Roenicke said before the game. "I think it's maybe trying to get him completely healthy. We probably won't be able to, but this will help again. I like the days back-to-back with tomorrow being an off-day. He didn't come to me and ask for a day off. I just thought about it, and I thought it may help him some.
"He's been fine playing the last couple days. With [Carlos Gomez] banged up and him a little a bit, I'd like to get him closer to 100 percent."
• With Scooter Gennett, Caleb Gindl and Khris Davis seeing extended playing time this season, Roenicke addressed the progression of his young players Sunday.
"I think, any time you're looking at young players, and you see them developing, you see them getting better. That's what we try to do as a staff," Roenicke said. "That's our focus, trying to get players better. When you see them do that, that's the pleasure we get out of coaching."
Worth noting
• Jose Tabata has hit .522 against Lohse in his career with a home run and four RBIs in 23 at-bats. Neil Walker has hit .381 off him with five RBIs in 21 at-bats.

South Florida Baptist Hospital Grows to Meet Community's Needs 04/03/2013 South Florida Baptist Hospital continues evolving to meet the growing needs of the Plant City community. "We have changed dramatically in recent years, adding an expanded Emergency Center, orthopedic unit, a center for wound care and hyperbarics, heart and vascular services, robotic surgery, and a new Breast Center ," said Steve Nierman, South Florida Baptist Hospital COO. "But even as we offer expanded programs and services once associated only with larger hospitals, patients' experience in the hospital remains a top priority." For passers-by, perhaps the most noticeable change is the addition of a 120-space parking lot located at the corner of W. Reynolds St. and Plant Ave., across from the Emergency Center. But a closer look inside the hospital reveals even more about what patients can expect from their hometown hospital. Last month, the obstetrics unit, also known as 3-South, received a face-lift. New flooring, ceiling, refurbished nurses' station and lobby have been enhanced with wood and glass, giving the unit a more hotel-like feel. The same aesthetics have been applied to a newly renovated medical/surgical unit, 2-South, that opens April 1. The entire unit has been renovated, reconfiguring 18 semi-private rooms to become 16 private rooms. Each room contains a family area, a private bath and shower, 42-inch television and a digital white board. Renovations continue this summer. In June, the hospital will begin expanding its surgical program with the construction of two new operating rooms. The project will take approximately 15 months to complete. "By keeping up with the latest technology and innovations in the health care industry, we are able to attract superb clinicians and offer our neighbors so much more than minor services," Nierman said. "Thanks to the support of our local community, generous donors and excellent clinicians, we continue to be Plant City's choice for high quality health care." |

Had to call an 800 phone number today, while I had sprinklers running in the backyard (totally unrelated activities ). When the automated voice stopped its recording thanking me for blahblahblah, I noticed that the countdown timer I'd set on the microwave to shut them off read 11:38 left.
"That's what Sheev said."
After coming back from Legend's Burgers (paid $11.26, ooh so close) and watching NFL preseason football, I noticed the NFL Network's fantasy football prediction for AZ Cardinals RB Chris "Beanie" Wells is 1,138 yds rushing (and 9 TDs).
"That's what Sheev said."
Noticed that Target had those multi-figure Lego SW sets for $11.39 each last week. Their greed in not charging a penny less for them cost them a sale; 'cause I'd have bought one if it was that magic number.
"That's what Sheev said."
Check out the cost of the item, plus its limited edition #. Lucky! (but too much for my pocketbook).
"That's what Sheev said."
I'm on my way to 1,138 consecutive posts in this thread!
In the sports section of the paper, they mentioned that a 50-50 raffle during a high school football game was won by a local bus driver. Amount he won? Yup, $1138. That is awesome on a few levels.
[edit] I had an idea; what about chain stores? Here are the locations of some of them:
CVS Pharmacy Store # 1138 in Fishers, Indiana
Sprint Store #1138 in Bartlett, Tennessee
Caribou Coffee Store # 1138 in Bemidji, Minnesota
McDonald's Store #1138 in Hagerstown Maryland
Burger King Store #1138 in Hampton, Virginia
Partonize these local establishments!
Last edited by Bel-Cam Jos; 09-23-2010 at 11:06 PM. Reason: I can think of 1137 reasons why I needed to add on to this.
"That's what Sheev said."
That ebay one was pretty well done, even though it's ludicrous.
Darth Vader is becoming the Mickey Mouse of Star Wars.
"In Brooklyn, a castle, is where dwell I"
The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.
In the grocery store today, I was wondering which package of flour tortillas would be best, looking at freshness dates. One had a production date/time of 11:38, so it was no longer a question of freshness but being fresh. :dope: :radical:
"That's what Sheev said."
Our new school time schedule this year has led to a revelation: apparently period 4 on rally schedule days starts at 11:38am.
TeeEye, is there a police code 1138? If so, what would be the crime in progress?
"That's what Sheev said."

by doober
June 12, 2003
I don't know where most of you got your fucking definitions for this word, but the Chode has nothing to do with a short or fat penis. It is a synonym of "taint" and "gooch". It is the area between your sac and your asshole. Why would you create a definition for something that doesn't exist, you morons?

The area between your srotum and rectum... from the mid 1800's when this was thought to be a muscle. In 1879, it first showed up in medical books as Chodimus Maximus, and was later shortened to Chode in 1903. In 1920 it was discovered to actually not be a muscle, but the name stuck!!!

Introduction | Testing lab | Noise & dynamic range | ISO sensitivity | Color sensitivity | MTF | Distortion, LCA, and vignetting | Light transmission |
Color sensitivity measurement requires knowing the RAW response of the sensor to a selection of known colors.
For this purpose, we shoot an image of a color target with perfectly-known reflectance spectra using a controlled and spectrally-measured illuminant.
We perform all color measurements using a dedicated Kyoritsu color light box, which provides uniform lighting over a surface about 50cm wide. The device enables to switch between several normalized illuminants (e.g., A, D65, CW, etc.).
The target is a Gretag Macbeth ColorChecker composed of 18 uniform color patches and 6 gray level patches. For each illuminant, we measure the reflection spectra of the patches with a spectrometer, and then we measure the RAW image values.
The uniformity of the illuminance is below 7% (checked with a lux-meter).
Read more about color measurement.

There is a place warriors can accept, or try to forget, concerns of combat they've carried for years. Memories of guilt or guns. Lifeless bodies. Even a veteran's own sometimes indescribable pain.
Rather than dress blues or cammies, they sport sweats and tank tops. Unroll thin, spongy floor mats. Inhale purposefully, some noticing their ribcages rise and fall. Stretch. Bend. Just be still — which can be the hardest thing to do.
These sessions, offered through Patuxent River Naval Air Station and the Yoga Warriors International program, will be offered at the Energy Zone on base Tuesday evenings at 4:15 through much of this winter.
Yoga Warriors is based in Massachusetts and offered worldwide.
During the sessions, as participants continue with their warmups, instructor Susan Grier breaks the silence with poems and affirmations to help ease minds and hopefully comfort souls of participants who suffer with post-traumatic stress disorder and other strains resulting from military service.
"Do not fight the dark. Just turn on the light," Grier said this week. "Turn on the goodness that you are."
The participants keep their composure while music booms from an aerobics class down the hall. They continue their poses, planting their feet and standing tall and strong like mountains. Or well rooted as trees. Or poised and alert as warriors. A pose called the pigeon, Grier said, helps stretch the hips, a place where people tend to hold a lot of tension physically, and even from "old emotional baggage."
With the poses they affirm, slowly, "I feel steady and calm."
Or, "I grow from strong roots" ... "I accept the ups and downs of life" ... "I safely release anger to open my heart" ... "I am a warrior with inner strength."
Katie, the only participant in this Tuesday's class, got one-on-one attention. A gentle press on her lower back to go deeper into a stretch. Uninterrupted discussion with the instructor.
She didn't want her last name used, she said, because of the stigma associated with people suffering from any mental health issue. "People hear that you have PTSD or that you're seeing a therapist, and they automatically assume that you need to be on lithium and in a padded room," she said.
She said she had been abused in a past relationship and she's suffered injuries through her work for eight years as a medic in the Air Force, "carrying fat guys around," she said.
With PTSD, she has to deal with the stress that comes with visiting new places, or meeting new people. Anxiety. Depression. Memory problems. Anything that makes her feel out of control of what's happening around her. But this class has helped.
"Once you find out about it," Katie said, "you can either do the work, or never leave the house."
Now, she gets out of the house more often, socializes, runs errands, gets some exercise, and ultimately, feels better as time passes.
That's what Grier was aiming for. She's a yoga instructor in St. Mary's County and teaches various courses, not only focusing on service members.
But she trained with all her energy to become a Yoga Warriors instructor, Grier said. "I just wanted to give back."

Usually of the female gender. Jinjer's are very rare but highly valuable. Most Jinjer's have bleach blond hair, bubbly personalities and are the life of the party. Don't let the fake blond hair fool you these Jinjer's are smart and are intelligent. Jinjer's are charming and you may often become addicted after only one hour of conversation. Jinjer's can be found batting their eyelashes and giggling at your stupid jokes while sizing you up. Most Jinjer's are addicted to High Heel Shoes that she loves to also wear to bed. If you are lucky enough to come across one of these rare creatures, spoil her like crazy and never let her go!
Did you see that devastating beautiful blond Jinjer, I cannot live without her.

(Frequently Asked Questions)
Thank you for visiting the Repticon FAQ page. If the answer to your question isn't on the page, please shoot us an email at firstname.lastname@example.com or visit our contacts page.
Vendor Questions:
Q. Are there any restrictions on the products or animals that can be sold at Repticon?
A. All animals must be healthy and legal to sell within the state. Vendors who intentionally and repeatedly offer illegal or unhealthy animals for sale may be banned from future shows.
Q. What if something is stolen from my table?
A. Each exhibitor is expected to appropriately display their materials and staff their tables in order to prohibit shoplifting or theft. Repticon is not responsible for any theft before, during, or after each event. If you see something that doesn't look right, please tell us as soon as possible. DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE END OF THE SHOW!
Q. How do I book tables at the show? Do I have to pre-pay?
A. To book tables at a Repticon show, either utilize the online booking form here, or contact the Vendor Coordinator for the state in which the show is held, listed here. Although pre-payment is appreciated, vendors in good standing who have vended at prior Repticon expos are not required to pre-pay for tables.
Vendors who have never vended at a Repticon expo must submit a $50 deposit upon booking to secure tables. This $50 deposit is credited towards the total payment due at the show. (For example, a first-time vendor booking one table must submit $50 upon booking, with a balance due of $45 at the show, for a total table cost of $95.
Q. Do I need a banner and fancy neon sign?
A. No neon sign required. However, each exhibitor is expected to create a professional, attractive display area in their space. It is now mandatory that Vendors must have a tablecloth to cover all their tables. If necessary, Repticon will provide them at $3 per table.
Q. Can I let guests hold the animals?
A. Exhibitors who choose to remove non-venomous animals from their enclosures or allow guests to handle their animals are responsible for maintaining control of the animals at all time. Each exhibitor is exclusively liable for any damage to property or personal injury resulting from handling of their live animals on the host facility premises.
Q. An animal escaped...it was my mom's favorite! What do I do?
A. Each exhibitor is responsible for ensuring that no animals leave their exhibit area unless under the control of an employee or customer. Each vendor is responsible for recapturing any escaped animals without unreasonable disruption to other exhibitors or guests. Any escaped animals must be immediately reported to Repticon. Any lost animals that are found after event hours or after the event closes become the property of Repticon, with no obligation for return to the original owner.
Q. Are there restrictions about Wild-Caught Animals?
A. There is no restriction regarding the sale of legal, wild-caught animals. Exhibitors are not required to display any particular signage, but are required to disclose any pertinent information to interested guests, including whether a particular animal is wild-caught or captive bred.

Hey Sun Devil fans, take a step back and breathe
A friend of mine fired off a tweet a couple weeks back that I still believe holds true today.
it is unbelievable how bad ASU has gotten this quickly
— Tridiots (@Tridiots) November 4, 2012
The Sun Devils have gone from 5-1 to 5-5 (they were 5-4 when the tweet was sent), so yeah, the slide could be seen as "unbelievable".
Except, as my colleague Vince Marotta writes, all this shows is this year's Devils are not any different from the team's fielded the last few years, where prolonged losing streaks have been kind of the norm.
As an Arizona alum and fan, I'd be lying if I said ASU's struggles aren't at least a little amusing.
They're also not surprising -- at least, not to the extent my friend should be shocked at what's transpired.
A few weeks back when the Sun Devils were getting ready to face the Oregon Ducks, I wrote, among other things, that it was tough to buy ASU as a "good team" because they hadn't played anyone of note.
At the time I wrote that piece, ASU's strength of schedule was 76th in the nation according to Sagarin. Now? A healthy 22nd.
The truth is this Sun Devils team was never that good. There is a reason they were never ranked at 5-1, and there's a reason they've lost the last four contests. The easy part (Washington State not included) of their schedule has passed, leaving nothing but the Pac-12's best on the docket. You know, with starting quarterbacks and other things good teams have.
Good teams make less-good teams look bad. That's how sports work.
But it's OK.
A month ago I wrote that not all 5-1 records are created equal. Now I'm writing the same for four-game losing streaks, too.
Last season the Devils dropped their final four regular season games after a 6-2 start. It was a collapse as epic as it was shocking, given that not one of the teams that beat Arizona State was ranked in the top 25.
Dennis Erickson's squad lost to some of the worst teams in the conference -- three of whom fired their coach -- and ruined what could have been a special season.
In comparison, this year's meltdown has been aided by four teams who were either ranked at the time they beat ASU or joined the top 25 shortly after the win.
There's no shame in that, especially when your team wasn't supposed to be any good in the first place.
Arizona State was picked by the media to finish fifth in the Pac-12 South, ahead of only Colorado.
The media was not a bunch of haters; they just saw a team with a new coaching staff, uncertainty at quarterback a lack of impact receivers and a shaky defense.
You know, the very things that are costing the Devils now.
The truth is the Arizona State Sun Devils were neither as good as they looked through the first six games nor as bad as they look over the last four. They're an average team that is better than the worst but nowhere near as good as the league's best.
And they're still set to go to a bowl game in year one of the Todd Graham era, which is something few expected coming into the season.
So if you want to view this team the same as you did last year's, that's fine, you're allowed. Go ahead and ignore the fact that Graham has taken a team that was ranked 120th in FBS in penalty yardage per game last season and improved it to 10th this year. Feel free to be na�ve and think a coaching staff does not need a few years to get its system and players in place. And you're welcome to feel the level of competition should not make a difference, even though it's obvious it does.
If you're really upset with how this season has transpired, that's fine. If you're qualm is with how the team is finishing after the quick start, that's entirely on you.
That said, please disregard this entire column if the Sun Devils fall to the Cougars Saturday at Sun Devil Stadium.

Tiana S.Deerfield,KSEasy To Use!Easy to use and works great!! Perfect for a first time wax user.posted Aug 31, 2010Link to this post
Rebecca M.KYHairDark BrownThick or Coarse HairWhew, Finally Got It!Very messy, but I finally got the hand of it. Works well.posted Aug 31, 2010Link to this post
KourtneyThis Is Horrible!I used this on my right leg first before i tried it on my bikini area. It left behind a bunch of wax but it pulled off MOST of the hair. There wasnt that much hair on my legs so i was hestitant to use it on my bikini. But i did anyways and now i have sticky wax caught in my hair. I have showered twice in attempts to get the wax off but i cant. I cant even just shave it off because its that sticky. NOBODY EVER EVER EVER USE THIS!!!!!!! i cant even get the wax off my leg and all i did was use on strip. THIS IS HORRIBLE!!! PLEASE PEOPLE GO TO A PROFESSIONAL OR BUY A MORE EXPENSIVE ONE THAN THIS GIGI CRAP!!!!posted Jun 24, 2010Link to this post
KremenaWarning ! ! !second Degree BurnsAfter I read all the reviews, I found that I am not the first one with second degree burn caused by this Gigi product...I have been using hard wax for more than a year, and I have never had any problems with other brands. That was my firs and last time using Gigi Brazilian wax;I heated up the wax in the microwave as it was written on the instructions, but what I got was a hot liquid under still hard top which capsulized the liquid,creating pressure underneath,and when I tried to break the top, the hot liquid splashed all over the place and burned my hand.Drops spilled 4 feet away.AVOID USING THIS BRAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!posted Jun 21, 2010Link to this post
MargieAwesome!Super easy, not that painful at all. Great product!posted Jun 15, 2010Link to this post
MegDo Not Try This At HomeI'm not saying that the wax is bad... but if you have never waxed or been waxed please go to a professional first. I usually shave my girly parts but I didn't want to bother with it during my camping trip coming up next week. I figured waxing couldn't hurt THAT bad ... women do it all the time right?! So I grew the hair out a little bit, went to the store to buy this waxing kit, and the liquor store to buy a large bottle of wine. Let's just say I woke up this morning hungover and with scattered bald patches down there. When you can figure out just how long to leave the wax on before ripping off (which was hit or miss with me) it actually does a pretty decent job. However, I would frequently miss that narrow window as I was trying to get to courage to rip. I think my hair was just a little to long because I found it very difficult and painful to pull up the edge to rip, and my hair would frequently mat as I was attempting this. Even though it is hard wax which doesn't require strips, I have read other reviews which say they applied the wax to the strips and then to the skin, and it worked great, so I think I might try that sometime so it is easy to pull. Eventually the pain was too much for me, and I gave up -- almost two hours and three very large glasses of wine later. I'm tempted to finish the job today, but not sure if that's going to happen. I think next time I decide waxing is a good idea, I'll let someone else inflict the pain on me.posted Jun 5, 2010Link to this post
SherylVery Pleased With Gigi Brazilian WaxThis product worked quite well. It was easy to use and very effective at removing the hair. Typically I have redness and slight discomfort after a professional waxing and have not experienced that with this product. I also discovered that left-over hairs, or hard to see areas, can easily be epilated with a bit of wax on the finger tips. Hairs come right out when grabbed! An observation... in more humid climate, like the South, drying time takes a bit longer then the stated 30 seconds. A house fan helps.posted May 31, 2010Link to this post
JaclynI Love It!This is the first at home waxing kit I used on my sensitive area. I've used other wacing kits on my face and arms, but they don't even work as well as this wax. I've had a brazillian in the salon, and the woman made me bleed because the wax was too hot! I now use this at home kid every 2-3 weeks and I LOVE IT! It is the best thing I've ever purchased. It gets all the hair, the first time, and it's super easy to use. I will NEVER go back to shaving with a razor. The brazillian lasts me at least 10 days before hair starts growing out, and I have to redo it about every 3 weeks. Plus, a full container gets me two full waxes! I highly reccomend this product for anyone who is willing to take some advil, then do the waxing themselves LOLposted May 24, 2010Link to this post
JenifferIt's Great!it's easy to use (well you should read the instructions before you use it!) i've never used a bikini wax in my life, but i was successful with this product! although it does hurt and can make a mess, you get the hang of it as you use it. i'd recommend it to my friends too :)posted Mar 18, 2010Link to this post
CarolynSurprisingly Easy!After I finally realized that my monthly waxing was getting to be too much of an expense I decided to try it for myself. What would I lose $20? I warmed to wax according to the instructions and kept it warm on a candle warmer with a sheet of aluminum foil in between (no need for a pricey wax warmer. I followed another reviewers advice and did use muslin strips. It was just easier to apply the wax to the strip and then press the stip on the area. I let it get totally cool and then ripped away. I was amazed at how much I was able to pick up. Yes, it smarts a little but theres no way around it, quit crying! I'll still go to the salon for a professional waxing before a vacation, but for any other time this is truly the way to go.posted Mar 17, 2010Link to this post

Cute layering tank
This pairs really well with a sweater or jacket, and the bow on the back is such a cute detail. The shimmer is subtle without being too dominating or distracting. I got the blue, and the picture is accurate to what the color looks like in person. I am 5'1" and 140 lbs, and the PM fits well -- not too long. But, as some other reviewers have commented, it is a little boxy. I compensate for that by wearing it with a sweater.

I was very pleased with this shirt UNITL... I washed it. I washed it on the gentle cycle with our undergarments and it came out with snags al over it. My suggestion would be to wash it by hand. I was not very happy that I only got to wear it once. Won't be ordering this item again.

Cute But Boxy
This top would have been great, but it's a bit short and boxy. It's also really wide. If it was longer I would have kept it.

Very Pretty, Nice Fit
I am 5'7"/145lbs/34DD and ordered a Medium, as I do in most tops, in peach and green. The "shine" is a silver stitching around each circle and the rest of the front is a standard cotton finish. The backside is a soft, flowy cotton. I LOVE the ribbon on the back - it is the perfect, feminine touch! The fit of this top is very nice for my body type and both the peach and green are very pretty in person and very accurate to the photos.

Good top
Very cute top, a little thin and being white will require a tank top underneath. I ordered the black and the white and the black had a very overstated gold sheen to it (due to the gold thread), which caused me to return it. The white has a very beautiful shimmer.

must have in every color
Very versatile, wear it to work with a jacket or going out with some friends. The subtle sparkle really makes it a great addition to any wardrobe.

Got it in blue, didn't like the type of lace and the color was a blah kind of blue. Returned.

Love this top
I purchased this top in cream to go with a cardigan from the limited. It is perfect for underneath all sorts of sweaters. This top can be worn with so many things I would strongly recommend this product.

Yesterday, APTA testified on the use of functional mobility and self-management measures at the Department of Health and Human Services' (HHS) National Committee on Vital and Health Statistics Quality Subcommittee on Patient Quality Measures.
Nearly 20 quality experts spoke on understanding patient/consumer health and health care decision-making needs and the measures and data to support health and decision making, using patient experience and satisfaction measures in assessing whether consumers/patients achieve their goals and expectations, and using patient preference measures in selection of insurance coverage, health providers, and treatment options.
APTA's testimony, delivered by Heather L. Smith, PT, MPH, program director of quality, included information about functional mobility measures that are currently being used. The association described barriers to adopting certain quality measures, such as practitioners' resistance to change, the time needed to administer and interpret results, and access and cost issues related to technology, as well as presented strategies that could be employed to overcome these barriers.
In addition to APTA, other panelists who presented on measures of functional mobility and self-management included John Hough, DrPH, MPH, MBA, from the National Center on Health Statistics, and Matt Stiefel, MPA, of Kaiser Permanente.
