JacieHairBlondeDry HairColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairWell This Product Has Some KinksI wanted to buy this product but with a it arriving with no instructions i can imagine how these people must have felt.
You have to get some instructions in the packaging. Also like a person like me i have color treated hair i need to know if it is safe right:) The smelly part i can handle no biggy...being given too high a dose of syntharoid made my hair fall out in handfuls and it is depressing. You want something to help with this disaster.
I just stopped the medication after 5 years but i don't see any hair back. "For the ladies out there wide tooth comb your hair in the tub or shower when your hair is soaking wet when you have a bath no more falling out hair" My hair no longer falls out and moisturize your hair like crazy if you are on synthroid, makes a huge difference...I will buy this product once it gets instructions..posted Nov 21, 2011Link to this post -
Yolanda C.USAHairMedium BrownCurly HairUnrated Due To Lack Of Information.Well, would love to use the product. But, to my surprise, no instructions of use came with it. I cannot honestly put something on my scalp with no instructions. I did however see the instructions online. Instructions should be shipped with the product though. Having many years of cosmetic experience, I was taken back by this fact.posted Oct 11, 2011Link to this post
AshleyDefinitely Worth It!A few years ago I lost a lot of my hair due to thyroid issues. The biggest area of hair loss was on my sides. I've tried so much to get my hair to grow faster but nothing really worked. So I started taking biotin vitamins, which helped the back portion of my hair, but my sides were still thin. A friend gave me this and I have noticed a big difference in the thickness and growth of my sides. At night, I put the folligen cream on first and then I use something called emu oil. Yes, it does smell and your hair gets pretty greasy� but for someone who couldn't grow hair back, it's a small price to pay!posted Jan 5, 2011Link to this post
SuzeKansas City, MO USAHairFine or Thin HairIt's A Committment But It Really Works!When I started using this product (along with minoxadil and ojon grease) six months ago, I wanted to know whether it would really work so committed to using all three products, every night, for three months - no fail - put products on at night - leave on for at least 8 hours - wash them out in the morning (green cast easily washes out). I'm 49 yrs old and have hair all over my head but it's very fine and thin -ponytail the size of a small pencil. This regimine was, truly, almost miraculous. My ponytail isn't really bigger but my hair looks significantly thicker and fuller. Even the woman who cuts my hair noticed a difference, as have friends and relatives. After three months, I cut back to 2-4 nights per week. This informal maintainance routine seems to work.posted Sep 22, 2009Link to this post
Joe NSatisfiedIm more than satisfied with the results, my hairline is no longer receding. However, the hair that is growing is thinner than it used to be, would possibly recommend using another product with it.posted Sep 5, 2007Link to this post

Phillies ask Lee to play stopper in Minnesota
Mired in five-game skid, Philly turns to lefty opposite Twins' Correia
It seemed everything was going the Phillies' way the last time Cliff Lee was on the mound.
The team was riding a five-game winning streak and had even built a four-run advantage against the Brewers with its best pitcher in action. But Lee would allow four runs -- three earned -- and the Phils would go on to fall in Milwaukee.
They are now in the midst of a five-game losing streak, but Lee will have a chance to stop it in the series finale in Minnesota on Thursday. Lee has gone at least seven innings in 11 of his 13 starts this season, and his 2.55 ERA is good for 10th in the National League.
Lee spent eight seasons in Cleveland, so he also has a long history against the Twins. The 2008 American League Cy Young Award winner is 8-4 with a 3.64 ERA against Minnesota in his career.
Right-hander Kevin Correia will try to help secure a series sweep for the Twins. Correia has cooled off a bit after posting a 2.23 ERA in April, but he owns a 5-4 record and has been one of the most consistent starters for the Twins in 2013.
"You come out of spring feeling like you can throw 100 pitches in a game, but now even throwing 100 pitches, I'm feeling real strong," Correia said. "That's what happens. You obviously don't want to peak the first game of the season."
Twins: Worley shelled in fourth Triple-A start
The Twins acquired Vance Worley from the Phillies in the offseason with aspirations of bolstering their rotation. However, things have not gone according to plan for the right-hander.
Worley was sent down to Triple-A Rochester a few weeks ago, and he was hit hard in his fourth start for the team on Wednesday. Worley -- whom the Phillies traded along with prospect Trevor May to the Twins in exchange for Ben Revere -- gave up seven runs on nine hits, and saw his Triple-A ERA rise to 4.74.
While with the Twins this season, Worley had a 7.21 ERA to go along with a 1-5 record in 10 starts.
The 25-year-old spent parts of three Major League seasons with the Phillies, the most notable coming in 2011, when he went 11-3 with a 3.01 ERA and finished third in the National League Rookie of the Year voting.
Phillies: Lannan makes rehab appearance
Phillies left-hander John Lannan made a rehab start for Double-A Reading on Wednesday night. Lannan is dealing with a strain quadriceps tendon in his left knee, an injury which forced him to the disabled list on April 18.
In the start for Reading, Lannan lasted seven innings, allowed two runs on seven hits and tossed 85 pitches (61 strikes). He said his knee has made good progress.
"With the injury, every day you look for something that got better from the day before," said Lannan, who signed a one-year, $2.5 million contract with the Phillies in the offseason. "It felt much better than it did the last time out."
Lannan made only three starts for the Phillies before the injury, and said he is at the point where he feels prepared to give outing No. 4 a try.
"I'm ready," Lannan said. "I've been honest the whole process, and I think I'm ready."
Worth noting
• Carlos Zambrano will start for Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Thursday night. Zambrano, who the Phillies signed to a Minor League contract on May 15, allowed just one run in six innings for Reading on Saturday.
• Revere had an RBI single Wednesday night. It was just his sixth RBI of the season, and second since May 3.

Some nice apps that can definitely help with creative thinking! In seminars, apps like these could be used in place of a turn-and-talk or other technique to get conversation going again.
Last month we announced Education on Air — our free online conference taking place May 8-9, 2015 — and asked what you wanted to hear about. Today we released the schedule of sessions, based largely on what we heard from you. We'll emphasize innovation — 44% of you voted for this — as well as how to empower students and use Google tools effectively. It was clear from our second poll that you also want practical examples, so our speakers will go beyond theory and share their specific advice for enacting change.

However, as the report shows, some conditions are easier to come by than others, and opinions often conflict with one anothe
Practical Ed Tech Tip of the Week - Create a Check In/ Out System in Google Forms ~ by Richard ByrneThere are many uses for Google Forms in classrooms. I've used Google Forms to create review quizzes, surveys, and sign-up sheets. This week I discovered a new use for Google Forms. That is using Google Forms to create a check-in/ check-out system for items in a classroom library. You can do this with the help of a Google Forms add-on called CheckItOut. In the video embedded below I demonstrate how to use CheckItOut.

Teaching Information Fluency describes the skills and dispositions of information fluency adept searchers. Readers will receive in-depth information on what it takes to locate, evaluate, and ethically use digital information. The book realistically examines the abilities of Internet searchers today in terms of their efficiency and effectiveness in finding online information, evaluating it and using it ethically. Since the majority of people develop these skills on their own, rather than being taught, the strategies they invent may suffice for simple searches, but for more complex tasks, such as those required by academic and professional work, the average person's performance is adequate only about 50% of the time. The book is laid out in five parts: an introduction to the problem and how search engine improvements are not sufficient to be of real help, speculative searching, investigative searching, ethical use and applications of information fluency. The intent of the book is to provide readers ways to improve their performance as consumers of digital information and to help teachers devise useful ways to integrate information fluency instruction into their teaching, since deliberate instruction is needed to develop fluency. Since it is unlikely that dedicated class time will be available for such instruction, the approach taken embeds information fluency activities into classroom instruction in language arts, history and science. Numerous model lessons and resources are woven into the fabric of the text, including think-alouds, individual and group search challenges, discussions, assessments and curation, all targeted to Common Core State Standards as well as information fluency competencies.

Understanding curation by creating and using a Scoop.it magazine is one of the projects in EDUC 760: E-Learning for Educators. Constructing knowledge by skillfully tagging, annotating, and sharing information is a way to filter and use the ocean of information we live and teach with. 8-)
When the city of Alexandria, Minnesota, asked community members what they wanted in their new high school to be like, they replied, "like the Google campus." So they hired John Pfluger of Cuningham Group Architecture to make that a reality. Something that might not be the same size, or even necessarily have the exact design considerations, but that represents the same sense of possibility—the feeling of being adaptable to the future, whatever might come of it. The result is a state-of-the-art facility for more than 1,400 students where the word "classroom" is verboten, and where an hour in algebra class might be indiscernible from kicking back in the quad.

Project-based learning is a complex teaching method that, in our experience, requires a clear and established workflow to seamlessly accommodate the needs of teachers, parents, and students. Throughout this school year, we have found several apps, add-ons, and programs that have helped us best manage our workflow.
"We built Classroom to help teachers spend less time on paperwork, and more time with their students. Since we launched, we've also heard from teachers and professors that they'd love to be able to use Classroom to collaborate with other educators.
For a change of pace, here's a list of "awesome" apps for teachers from Scholastic Instructor magazine offering activities for a wide range of subjects.

They were published in a recent edition of the magazine,, and I am republishing them with permission.
There's a problem with traditional video conferencing clients. Though they are in abundance, they're only remotely useful if all parties are collectively using the same client.

Office Lens is a new app for iOS and Android (still in limited beta) designed for converting pictures of notes on whiteboards and paper into notes that can be edited in Microsoft Word or PowerPoint. If you don't need to edit the notes that your take pictures of, you can simply export the file created by Office Lens to JPEG or PDF. Probably the neatest aspect of Office Lens is that hand-drawn images and figures captured through the app can be separated from the text to move and manipulate as individual objects in PowerPoint slides. See the video below for an overview of Office Lens.
Last fall I reviewed HSTRY when it was still in beta. Recently, it lost the beta album and opened to everyone that wants to use it to create multimedia timelines. One of the features of HSTRY that I love is the option to insert quiz questions throughout your timelines. HSTRY supports the inclusion of video, audio, and pictures throughout your timelines. The video embedded [above] provides a short overview of how to create a HSTRY timeline. The video is from HSTRY's extensive student guide.

Special Olympics athlete Jeremy Valade of Michigan, USA, has been to Healthy Athletes several times, gotten eye and dental exams, and received a mouth guard and sports goggles at Healthy Athletes. But it was his visit during the USA National Games in Iowa in 2006 that changed his life.
Special Olympics athlete Jeremy Valade plays bocce while a teammate looks on.
A screening indicated low bone density, and a follow-up with his hometown doctor discovered that he had severe osteoporosis. Fortunately, he found out about his condition through a screening, not an injury, and by taking action, he has significantly increased his T-score.
"He is the picture of a healthy guy. He is thin. He is muscular. He is strong," said Julie Valade, Jeremy's mother. "You would never imagine there was a problem with low bone density. His doctor looked at the slip from Healthy Athletes and laughed. He didn't think it was necessary to do a screening." Yet, out of an overabundance of caution and because the doctors at Healthy Athletes recommended it, he did a bone screening and was shocked at the result.
Jeremy was referred to an endocrinologist who recommended daily shots of Forteo, a drug normally used on older people with osteoporosis. His endocrinologist set Jeremy up with a test program with the world-renowned Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota (USA).
Of course, getting a shot every day is something that Jeremy had to get used to. But the shots "didn't really hurt," he reports, and soon Jeremy had figured out how to give himself the shots.
"Jeremy is very independent. He likes to learn," Julie said.
Fortunately, neither his low bone density nor his treatments affected Jeremy's life in a significant way. He stopped playing soccer to avoid injury, but "didn't really miss it. He found there are so many things to do in Special Olympics," Julie said. "There is a fine line – you want to stay active to stay healthy, but need to stay away from contact sports."
Two years is the longest any patient can be on Forteo. Over the course of two years, his bone density improved significantly. His condition is now classified as osteopenia, not osteoporosis. His endocrinologist tests him every six months in a "wait and see" mode but is optimistic about his long-term prospects. "She thinks maybe it will stay that way – all thanks to early discovery," Julie said. "His osteoporosis would have been totally missed without his loving Special Olympics coach and the volunteers who provide such wonderful services."
Now 27 years old, Jeremy has been a Special Olympics athlete since he was 8. He has been active in basketball, poly hockey, bocce, softball, track, and soccer. Julie has also been very active in Special Olympics, serving as an assistant area director since 1996. After so many years of service, Julie is retiring from Special Olympics this year. Jeremy, however, has no plans to retire from Special Olympics or Healthy Athletes.
Special Olympics transforms athletes' lives through the joy of sport. Help us make a difference.
Volunteering with Special Olympics is fun and very rewarding, for both the athlete and the volunteer!
Stay in touch! See inspiring stories, photos and videos in our Special Olympics newsletter.

John Lannan delivered his first two hits of the season during tonight's win.
ATLANTA — Given what transpired here 24 hours earlier, the Nationals easily could have arrived back at Turner Field Saturday night and doubted their ability to play a clean ballgame against one of the NL's toughest opponents.
To a man, though, players insisted Friday night's 11-1 thrashing at the hands of the Braves was nothing to fret about, merely a one-time bump in the road.
That they then went out and proved it during a 5-2 victory over Atlanta speaks volumes about the confidence this team has in itself.
"There's no doubt about it," manager Davey Johnson said. "The character over here is unbelievable. You're never as bad as you look when you lose, and especially when you lose like we did the other day. You just brush it off and you play the next day. We played an outstanding game."
That they did. The Nationals saw John Lannan bounce back from a frightening moment eight days ago to toss 5 2/3 strong innings, not to mention drive in two runs with his first hit of the season. They saw

This was my favorite post of the night:Some Atlanta Braves fan on their MLB board:"I had a bad feeling about tonight, Lannan pitching for the Nationals".How do you like that–? Mr. L — you are FEARED!

Great article MarkMeister. Barring injury, Desi is going to have a very good second half. You can see him doing things with his bat lately, that'll prove to be successful over the rest of the season.As far as the character part, Davey is right. But as Bill "Spaceman" Lee once said after the the Expos lost a playoff game in the early 80"s, "F*+% the character, I want to win!"
- sjm308 - Jul 17, 2011 at 11:42 AM
Great to read another positive article on Desmond and it will probably quiet the move Espinosa to SS bring up the AAA wonders for at least one day or until Desmond hits another rough spot, BUT, he is not going anywhere folks. Davey is in charge and he has always liked Ian and Desmond is a leader even at his young age. Surprised he would not talk last night, he usually seems to be a "go to" guy for reporters. Maybe he actually reads the stuff here, hope not. Not mentioned but Morse also had a nice day in the field and his pick on that 2nd out in the 9th was a thing of beauty.Go Nats!!
- masnstinks - Jul 17, 2011 at 11:52 AM
After watching last night's game my thought was that it was a clean, uneventful,(baseball-wise, not fan-wise), professionally played game. Win or lose I would like to see this team play consistent baseball after all of the win-streak, one-run games, manager-switch dramas. Walk-offs are exciting but it would be nice to have a stretch of games that is a little less of a roller coaster. I am a little concerned for the rest of the season about the pitching holding up – especially Livo and am also hoping that the manager and fo don't give in to the temptation to push JZimm a little too far. It's not about this year, it's about future years. Just keep that steady climb one step at a time.
- Stranded_in_Philly - Jul 17, 2011 at 12:27 PM
There couldn't possibly be a better picture of a pitcher getting a hit then that shot of Lannan. He looks about as surprised as the rest of us were.
- natsfan1a - Jul 17, 2011 at 1:03 PM
Actually, I wasn't surprised, as I'd called it just after Porter spoke to him. I had no idea on the second one, however. I did like FP's comment after it, something to the effect that LannEn had watched Hudson the night before and was now saying "I got your two hits here." Atta way, Johnny and FP!
- natsfan1a - Jul 17, 2011 at 1:05 PM
Also, there was an in-game graphic referencing Braveheart in re. LannEn's record against the Bravos. FP mentioned William Wallace as well. Maybe FP reads comments here? Nah.

@Mark Zuckerman "Desmond declined to speak to reporters after the game, but his manager said all that needed to be said."Mark, any idea why Desmond declined to speak? He had a really good game.

"Mark, any idea why Desmond declined to speak?"Duh. Obviously Desmond is a big B52s fan and wanted to get back out of the locker room and into the Love Shack!Speaking of which, Mark, admit it, you enjoyed the show more than you were expecting to.(Yep, that's a preposition right before that period.

LoveDa, I'll borrow Unkyd's explanation of a few weeks ago (thanks, Unk):Unkyd said… Hacking through the gorse… Blame it on the iPhone. As you'll see, below, I meant to type something else, 1A picked up on it, and away we go! Unkyd said… Gonat: before I "get over it", please to explain the advantage of having the not-hitting-at-all-and-always-has-trouble-with-lefties Mr. Ankiel hacking the gorse 2-3 times through, over having the HOT bat-over-the-last-few-weeks-always-has-trouble-with-lefties Mr. Nix… When the BP Guy comes in, you still have Nix to bat. And, please stop implying that we're all idiots, when you're making about as much sense as rescuing Stairs from the jaws of the Nats Rapture Shark….. June 5, 2011 12:43 PM Unkyd said… Hmmmm… That would be the First 2-3 times through…. June 5, 2011 12:46 PM natsfan1a said… Glad you clarified, Unk. I was just about to Google "hacking the gorse" as I figured it was some esoteric (perhaps golf- or skeet-related) expression I'd not yet come across. I do like the sound of it, "he really hacked the gorse that time." Re. the draft generally, I agree that it will be interesting, but I always thought one did not draft for need? June 5, 2011 1:00 PM Unkyd said… Lol, 1A! I'm gonna have to work "hacking the gorse" into my daily usage, somehow! June 24, 2011 4:16 PM

Stat of the night!Thanks to Wilson Ramos and John Lannan, Tommy Hanson dropped to 6th in ERA with 5 earned in 5.1 innings on the same night that Cole Hamels was knocked for 7 earned in 4.1 innings.Jordan Zimmermann says thank you very much as he moves to 4th in NL ERA!!!http://espn.go.com/mlb/stats/pitching/_/sort/ERA/league/nl/year/2011/seasontype/2

I will admit to having googled "hacking the gorse", and deciding I'd just pretend I was with it and use it.BTW Insiders, as long as we're clarifying things, has anyone come up with a moniker for the pre-swing ritual of Michael Morse? I'm not even sure what genre to put it into. Sort of Karate Kid zen, sort of bobsled driver envisioning, sort of ballerina warm ups. Anyone?

Great clip, 1a! How he can look that clumsy and that athletic at the same time…For those who can't see it:** spoiler alert **Twins' Ben Revere hits a ball to the wall in right, but loses his balance rounding second base and does a forward roll and popup, takes a couple more steps and dives into third, all at full speed.
- natsfan1a - Jul 17, 2011 at 3:33 PM
Not that I know of, Sunderland. Go ahead and give it a whirl if you're feeling creative. I noticed recently that, in addition to the leg lifts, Morse seems to have a foot-bat sequence that he employs. I won't go into details so as not to jinx him (it seems that perhaps he's a tad superstitious).

i wanted a watch that lit up at night,but this requires too much mental calculation when you are half asleep to determine the time. It is way too heavy to wear. It definitely is eye catching and different, but requires too much maintenance.

For the millions of Americans living with chronic pain, the impact on daily life is very real.
It's now time for all sides to find common ground and develop comprehensive strategies to ensure that chronic pain patients continue to have access to appropriate treatments while keeping prescription medicines out of the hands of those who would abuse them.
Today we introduce you to Christopher Phillips, a Massachusetts-based advocate dedicated to educating and empowering people whose lives have been affected by chronic pain.
Meet Mark Maginn, a former psychotherapist turned journalist with chronic pain, and volunteer for the American Pain Foundation. He's working on his memoir, tentatively titled Left Eye Blind.
Meet Gina Libby, an influential and compassionate advocate who helps give a voice to people living with chronic pain.
Today we introduce you to Angelika Byczkowski, a health care blogger and poet whose writings serve as a resource and inspiration for other patients living with chronic pain.
Today we profile Liz Schenk. Liz's experience with chronic pain has led her to become a health coach. In this role, she encourages her clients to "eat mindfully, live vibrantly, and move joyfully."
Conclusion of a roundtable discussion hosted by Zogenix with a panel of leading health care voices in chronic pain management, including representatives from the pain specialty, nursing and pharmacy fields.
On August 26, 2014, Zogenix, in partnership with the U.S. Pain Foundation, hosted a roundtable with a dynamic panel of chronic pain advocates.
Research shows that more than half of people who misuse prescription pain medication do so with medicines prescribed to someone else. Zogenix has taken multiple steps to ensure that Zohydro® ER (hydrocodone bitartrate) is used appropriately by the person to whom it was prescribed.
Every month, TPC recognizes a "TPC Hero" for outstanding dedication to making a difference for those living with pain.
This week in Viewpoints, John Burke, president of NADDI, discusses the history and impact of its Rx Drug Drop Box program.
At Zogenix, we firmly believe it is critically important that Zohydro™ ER (hydrocodone bitartrate) extended-release capsules, CII and all extended-release/long-acting (ER/LA) opioids are only prescribed by an educated health care provider, experienced in prescribing ER opioids for management of severe chronic pain for the appropriate patient.
In an article published April 24, 2014 in the NEJM titled "Chronic Pain, Addiction, and Zohydro," authors Yngvild Olsen, M.D., M.P.H., and Joshua M. Sharfstein, M.D. said "pointing the finger at Zohydro is not going to resolve the tension that exists today between chronic pain and addiction."
Rampant misinformation about Zohydro™ ER continues to be reported by the media and echoed in Washington D.C. and some states' capitals. These inaccurate and misleading statements are often made without proper context, and are intended to be sensational, to create fear, or to generate headlines. In many instances, these statements are not supported by scientific facts or medical evidence.
Governor Patrick's new action was taken after a federal judge earlier this month had ruled to reverse the state's effort to prohibit the prescribing and dispensing of this new, important, pain medication. It is unjustifiable and harmful to patients in severe chronic pain to single out one medication for such legislative action.
Yesterday, Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, and U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Dr. Margaret Hamburg, called for a balanced approach in the fight against prescription drug abuse and preserving the protection of the needs and rights of patients suffering from severe chronic pain. It was an impressive showcase of a unified front and a call for all stakeholders to help at every level.
We are extremely disappointed that the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Administrator, as she did in a Congressional hearing today, would repeat misinformation about Zohydro™ ER that has been demonstrated to be false.
We agree with Governor Deval Patrick's intention to curb the epidemic of drug abuse in Massachusetts. However, we are extremely concerned by his unprecedented action with respect to a specific FDA-approved prescription medication.
An increasing number of news reports have been including false and misleading statements about our company and our product, Zohydro™ ER (hydrocodone bitartrate) extended-release capsules (CII), the first and only extended release hydrocodone product without acetaminophen.
Zogenix is committed to ensuring the safe, effective and responsible treatment of chronic pain patients. Zohydro ER (hydrocodone bitartrate) extended-release capsules, is the first available extended release hydrocodone product without acetaminophen for the management of pain severe enough to require daily, around-the-clock, long-term opioid treatment and for which alternative treatment options are inadequate, and was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) after an extended, 18-month, comprehensive review process.
Zohydro ER (hydrocodone bitartrate) Extended Release Capsules, CII, were approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on October 25, 2013, for the management of pain severe enough to require daily, around-the-clock, long-term opioid treatment and for which alternative treatment options are inadequate.

VeronicaHairLight BrownColor Treated HairWaste Of Moneydon't buy!!!brush does not spin.posted Jan 12, 2013Link to this post
Jahayra L.HairMedium BrownFine or Thin HairLeaves My Hair Feeling Like SilkThis miracle gadget leaves my hair looking and feeling like silk. It's simple to use, lightweight and perfect for travel. This is all I brought on vacation. My hair looked voluminous and smooth in every picture. I haven't mastered the Kate Middleton curls with it yet, but they may be due to hair length.posted Sep 4, 2012Link to this post
Ebon M.HairDry HairCurly HairThick or Coarse HairLove!I LOVE THIS THING.
It really adds shine and body to your hair. The trick is getting used to it and which direction your hair should curl in. After the buttons start making sense, your hair will too.
There are only 3 downers:
Con 1) The tool does not spin on the cool setting, which would be neat for keeping the strands taut and ON the brush. But I can deal: The lack of spinniness on cool doesn't negatively affect the brushes positive effects on the hair as far, as I can tell.
Con 2) The barrel is too wide for making curls in shoulder-lengthed hair, which is totally fine. I knew that going in (duh, it's 2" wide!). It still gives shorter hair a nice shape for face framing, piecey layering, flipping, curling under, and BODY galore... SO, i can deal with the 2" barrel. I feel awesome.
Con 3)It still doesn't replace a straightener for my 3c/4a hair because it doesn't get it super straight and it definitely doesn't replace replace a blow-dryer because I'd still need the iron after AND it doesn't get my roots.
I just use it for the days that I need a little oomf. If you need something that will do everything for hair that is nearly as curly as mine, keep looking.
This device would be perfect if it came with detachable, interchangeable brushes of different diameters, the handle only permanently harboring a motor and some buttons.
When that device comes out... phew.

AlyssaHairBlondeNormal HairGet The Salon Blowout Without The HassleI love this! I've gotten so many compliments about how great my hair looks since I've started using it earlier this week. My hair looks so polished and shiny. It pretty much looks like I just got my hair done (every day!). I don't have to fight with my hair dryer and round brush any more. I have shoulder length hair but I have a lot of hair. It would take me about 45 minutes to dry my hair with the hair dryer and round brush method. I swear this tool has cut that time in half.
It did take a bit of finesse the first time I used it to figure out which way to spin the brush to get the hair in the back to curl under instead of flip. But once I figured it out, it was so easy. So much easier than using a round brush and dryer.
Some of the reviews have posted that this may be too big for shorter hair. I don't have any problem using this on my shorter layers or bangs at all.posted Jun 14, 2012Link to this post -

Pamela R.ArizonaLove The Spinning Hair Brush Technology, ButI love the concept of this Conair Spin Air Brush, except the biggest disappointment is it doesn't come with a smaller brush for shorter hair.
I can't believe they overlooked this in designing this hair dryer brush. Maybe it was intentional as they will probably come out with another spinning air brush dryer when they could have made this one a BEST SELLER if they had only come up with two size brushes.
I do have this dryer and it works well for the top of my hair and gives it lots of volume but the barrel is way too big for the rest of my hair.posted Jan 30, 2012Link to this post -
MelindaNew YorkHairDark BrownCurly HairColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairOmg....unbelievable Volume And Shine!This has got to be the best invention ever! This tool creates incredible volume and shine! I no longer use a straightening iron due to the awesome style I get just by using this air brush. It is fairly easy to use and I love that it also has the cold air option to set my style. When you run it through your hair (make sure brush is spinning away from you), take sections and run it through a few times before you roll the hair up to your scalp. The brush gets right in the root of the hairs! I absolutely love this!posted Jan 16, 2012Link to this post
AllieBrooklyn, NYHairDark BrownColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairRelaxed HairA Godsend For A Woman Who Cannot Manage Her Hair!I am an African-American woman who loves to get a great blow out. However, I have to rely on my stylist to give me a great blowout because I cannot manage a brush and blow dryer at the same time. My hair is pretty thick and usually ends up air drying (and getting pretty frizzy) on me before I can blow it all out. I LOVE THIS SPIN BRUSH! It straightens my roots and the dual spinning creates optimal volume. My blowout looks just as good as when my stylist does it and it drys my hair so quickly. It also adds great shine and body. So excited about this and would recommend it to anyone. I only have one issue and that's that the two inch barrel is a little big for some of my layers. Otherwise, perfect.posted Dec 28, 2011Link to this post
DawnTexasHairAuburnOily HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairAmazing!!I have hair that feels like doll hair unless it's blown out properly.

Having sex with your sister. A Dundalk prom date can be distinguished from garden variety incest by the fact that you have to pay your sister in order for her to have sex with you. Also worth noting is that no one will ever mistakenly believe that you actually had a regular, normal prom date because no one in Dundalk completes the last two years of high school. Hence no one in Dundalk has ever been to a prom.
I had a Dundalk promdate this morning before I went to the methadone clinic.
I still owe her $10 for the Dundalk promdate.

Progress, from: To Outlive Eterninty and Other Stories (Baen 2007) (Originally appeared in The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction, January 1962) I just read this story and liked it, but.... I don't know that I understood the last line of the story. I won't give any details in this first post, to avoid spoiling it for those who have not read it. If anyone has read this story, can you tell me what that last line meant? The way it is presented suggests to me that it is meant to be significant, and so probably not something that was mentioned at the start of the conversation in which it appears. The only other interpretation that occurs to me seems to be contradicted by something earlier in the story...so I am at a loss. I really like Anderson's stories and ideas, and am concerned I might be missing something here. Thanks for any help.
OMG. Poul got me started writing SF and became my mentor. Virgin Planet got me hooked. I shamefully admit that I haven't read much of Poul's stories, but plan to do so in the near future. I kept all my correspondence from Poul, and have stayed in touch with Greg Bear. chris
The answer comes a few pages before, where Lorn makes a statement and Alisabeta answers. """ "I wasn't sure about that. I thought from the way you handled yourselves--I figured you for special operatives." "Oh, heavens, no. Intelligence had decided the truth was less likely to come out if the advance agents were a bona fide merchant crew, that had never been involved in such work before, and never would be again. We got some training for the job, but not much, really." """ Unprepared merchants handle themselves as well as special operatives on a mission involving an entirely new technology never seen before on Earth. A nuclear apocalypse happened so long ago it is all but forgotten, destroying certain continents and shattering the world ecology. This is an optimistic story about humans who have adapted in a big way. What seems like a backward and repressive society is actually very effective at survival and at managing global politics to avoid another apocalypse. That is what the last line is about. -Pkunk ----- The stars are in auspicious alignment, the various significant moons are in the correct houses, and ambient psychic energies are in balance. All is well, and the universe is at peace.

Collaborative Funding Network
If you are interested in joining The Collaborative Partnership click here.
The Collaborative Funding Network is currently available for demonstration purposes below. It is going to be made available for use to all partner institutions soon.
Any entity and their employees may join the CFN for a one time setup fee of $500. The CFN uses remote authentication/identity management tools so users do not need to remember any new user names and passwords, they will use the user name and passwords of their institution to authenticate themselves and then portal to the CFN as an authorized user.
By utilizing daily downloads of the funding opportunities from grants.gov, the Collaborative Funding Network (CFN) provides individuals one place to find collaborators and related funding opportunities along with the ability to assign roles, post collaborations sought after and openly communicate. This ability allows experts to easily establish collaborative working groups with experts within or outside their own institution including any related resources necessary to pursue specific funding opportunities. The communication and exchange can be organized at the individual, University, University System and State levels as well as by geographic location within the state.
To start, find the latest funding opportunities and related collaborative research resources by entering a Keyword or selecting a Research Cluster.

What to expect from 2013 LegislatuerJanuary 09,2013Gov. Peter Shumlin has a sweeping program of action for Vermonts new General Assembly, and its a safe bet that hell get 90 percent of what he wants. Heres a quick snapshot of the leading issues.
The fiscal year 2004 General Fund deficit is currently estimated at $50-70 million. The governor has told agencies to level-fund and absorb pay increases. The highly touted Challenge for Change process (2009-2011) apparently didnt enable the state to live within its revenues, even allowing for the unexpected Tropical Storm Irene costs.
Further, Congresss resolution of the fiscal cliff may result in both higher taxes and large reductions in federal spending, for instance, on Medicaid, 30 percent of Vermonts General Fund budget.
Act 48 of 2011 requires the administration to explain by Jan. 15 how it plans to raise as much as $3 billion a year to fund Green Mountain Care in 2017. Already the administration is hinting that maybe everybody should just wait another year to find out, during which time the machinery of single-payer will rumble forward.
Gov. Shumlin will push hard for more mandates and subsidies to force Vermont toward his arbitrary goal of 90 percent renewable energy by 2050 and greenhouse gas emissions reduced to 50 percent of 1990 levels by the same year. He has never wavered in his peculiar belief that Vermont must show the world how to defeat the unspeakably horrid Menace of Global Warming, and claim our energy independence no matter what the cost.
Since driving up the cost of electricity, motor fuel and heating fuel essential if low-cost energy is to be replaced with high-cost renewable energy socks the poor and middle class much more than the rich, look for new energy taxes to include a new subsidy scheme for the middle class, to compensate them for being made to pay the higher energy costs required of them to save the planet from Al Gores Heat Death.
With the state and federal governments pressing hard for more electric vehicles, motor fuel revenues will increasingly take a hit. Will someone propose a new tax on electric vehicles to compensate the Transportation Fund for maintaining the roads, thereby cancelling out the subsidies that caused the people to buy overpriced electric vehicles in the first place?
The party now in power was put there in large measure by labor unions, and for them its payback time. Shumlin will push through unionization of day-care workers, raising the costs of day care, and unionization of home-care workers, raising the costs of Medicaid. The unions will pocket all those union dues and use them to underwrite the next big unionization push.
The grand $100 million Vermont State Hospital proposed in 2007 has faded away, but Shumlin is determined to build a new 25-bed psychiatric care facility in Berlin, whether FEMA will help pay for it or not. Meanwhile he is lauding the distribution of the seriously mentally ill back into communities. Exactly what this means is not clear, but it directly relates to the homeless population on the streets. State bureaucrats are historically allergic to (lower cost) extramural arrangements that reduce patients dependence on permanent control by unionized state employees. At the same time, legislatures are allergic to major new spending for mental health patient support.
Shumlin has repeatedly declared his support for public school choice, but his 2011-2012 Legislature failed to act on it. (The bill then under consideration comically allowed a student to switch public schools, but allowed the sending school to keep all the money.) Theres not much likelihood that school choice will move forward in 2013, especially since Shumlin has appointed anti-choice, pro-consolidation Education Commissioner Armando Vilaseca to be the first secretary of education.
The basic household education property tax rate will almost certainly increase again, from 89 cents to 94 cents of grand list value (increased in each district by a spending multiplier). This is partly because local voters, undeterred by penalties, keep voting higher budgets; partly because grand lists are shrinking; and partly because in 2011 Shumlin snatched $27.5 million out of the transfer to the Education Fund to fund his other General Fund priorities.
Lurking in the background is the ever growing problem of woefully underfunded obligations to retired state employees and teachers. The two funds have a $60 million annual contribution shortfall just for retiree health care expenses; the teachers annual expenses are simply siphoned out of their (underfunded) retirement fund. Overall, the two funds are actuarially $3 billion in the red. Just who is going to make good on these unfunded promises?
Other issues like marijuana and assisted suicide will get lots of media coverage this year, but how the Legislature grapples with the foregoing big ticket issues will strongly influence Vermonts near-term and perhaps long-term future.
