Bought this for my husband, for our section hike of the AT, through the Shenandoah National Park. It rained off and on throughout our hike, but he stayed dry with this jacket. He did have to unzip a bit, when he got warm. But temperatures can drop quite a bit at night, in the mountains, so staying dry while hiking is important and this jacket made sure of that.
I bought this jacket for casual use and was able to put it to the test the first weekend I owned it at an all day music festival. The jacket was incredibly dry, comfortable, and lightweight enough to wear even in 80 degree heat. (I'm sure it will make a great top layer when the weather gets colder)Couldn't recommend this jacket enough to someone looking for a high quality waterproof jacket without the bulk.
Only had it for a week but has already work perfectly in the rain. Breathable. Sized to fit over two layers (typically wear M shirts and M jacket fits roomy but comfortable with just a t-shirt, fits perfectly over a fleece)
Looking to venture out into the rainy outdoors? Don't forget this jacket. Perfect for spring when it's not too cold, but you need an extra layer and protection for the elements.
If all you're looking for is to keep the rain off this will work, but there isn't a ton of functionality beyond that. It doesn't breath great, I get clammy to downright sweaty if it's hot out. The seam tape apears to be wearing in spots, it hasn't let water in yet but I'm sure it's only a matter of time. It fits large which I appreciate because I'm often in a canoe and slip this on over my life jacket, but not everyone will like it to be so baggy. Again it keeps the rain out so who cares right, but I'm ready for a jacket with more breathability, durability, and functionality, I don't know about you.
Got this jacket as a gift this summer. Packs away beautifully, vents great with the pit zips and is 100% seam taped to make it 100% waterproof. I searched far and wide for the raincoat i wanted because I didn't want to spend so much extra on a gore-tex rain jacket and this was the one that really grabbed me. Great job Marmot for this one!
I bought this jacket to replace my old PreCip jacket (it's about to be 6 years old). My previous one was used all year long for everyday use and used on hiking trips. From day to day and on the trail this jacket will keep you completely dry. I use this jacket every day while in Ecuador (I spent 2 months working at a camp and it rains everyday there). From a light afternoon shower to an absolute downpour this is my jacket of choice. The adjustment straps on the arms and then the drawstrings on the hood and waist insure that no water can find its way inside. While hiking you can open up the PitZips to let the jacket vent which it does really well. You can also open the up the pockets after it rains to make the jacket vent even more. Finally the jacket does a great job of stopping the wind. I use it all the time as a light windbreaker. Marmot makes quality jackets that last.
Bought this product when i was fat and man it can cover ya! It also keeps the rain off. Hood is to big and unfortunately i lost all that babyfat and now its huge on me. Moosejaw can i return this for a smaller size..just kidding..unless i can then sweet.
The day I received my rain jacket I used it. The wind was blowing from all directions and so was the rain. I zipped up the jacket all the way and stayed nicely warm. Not to hot not to cold. Best of all I stayed dry. A big thumbs up. I like the zippers as well. Easy to get a hold of with gloves on. In the low 40s today and with just a light long sleeve underneath I was very comfortable in my ride. This jacket is made of a good heavy material, what ever it is. The big test for me is when I get caught in a down pour. That is the true test of a water/wind proof jacket. When that happens I will give a followup on this product.

NEW ORLEANS – The cause of a 34-minute blackout at the Super Bowl remains under investigation, but public records released Monday show that Superdome officials were worried about a power outage several months before the big game.
An Oct. 15 memo released by the Louisiana Stadium & Exposition District, which oversees the Superdome, says tests on the dome's electrical feeders showed they had "some decay and a chance of failure."
Entergy New Orleans, the company that supplies the stadium with power, and the structure's engineering staff "had concerns regarding the reliability of the Dome service from Entergy's connection point to the Dome," the memo says. Those concerns were due in part to "circumstances that have previously occurred with the electrical service regarding transient spikes and loads."
The memo also cites 2011 blackouts that struck Candlestick Park, where the San Francisco 49ers were playing a nationally televised Monday night football game, as a reason for ordering the tests.
The board later authorized spending nearly $1 million on Superdome improvements, including more than $600,000 for upgrading the dome's electrical feeder cable system.
"As discussed in previous board meetings, this enhancement is necessary to maintain both the Superdome and the New Orleans Arena as top tier facilities, and to ensure that we do not experience any electrical issues during the Super Bowl," says a LSED document dated Dec. 19.
An attorney for the state board that oversees the Superdome said the blackout did not appear to be related to the replacement in December of electrical equipment connecting the stadium to Entergy. Officials with the utility and the Superdome noted that an NFL game, the Sugar Bowl and another bowl game were played there in recent weeks with no apparent problems.
The exact cause of Sunday night's blackout — and who's to blame — remained unclear late Monday, though a couple of potential culprits had been ruled out.
It wasn't Beyonce's electrifying halftime performance, according to Doug Thornton, manager of the state-owned Superdome, since the singer had her own generator. And it apparently wasn't a case of too much demand for power. Meters showed the 76,000-seat stadium was drawing no more electricity than it does during a typical New Orleans Saints game, Thornton said.
The lights-out game Sunday proved an embarrassment for the Big Easy just when it was hoping to show the rest of the world how far it has come since Hurricane Katrina in 2005. But many fans and residents were forgiving, and officials expressed confidence that the episode wouldn't hurt the city's hopes of hosting the championship again.
To New Orleans' great relief, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said the city did a "terrific" job hosting its first pro football championship in the post-Hurricane Katrina era, and added: "I fully expect that we will be back here for Super Bowls."
Fans watching from their living rooms weren't deterred, either. An estimated 108.4 million television viewers saw the Baltimore Ravens beat the San Francisco 49ers 34-31, making it the third most-viewed program in television history. Both the 2010 and 2011 games hit the 111 million mark.
The problem that caused the outage was believed to have happened around the spot where a line that feeds current from Entergy New Orleans connects with the Superdome's electrical system, officials said. But whether the fault lay with the utility or with the Superdome was not clear.
Determining the cause will probably take days, according to Dennis Dawsey, a vice president for distribution and transmission for Entergy. He said the makers of some of the switching gear have been brought in to help figure out what happened.
The blackout came after a nearly flawless week of activity for football fans in New Orleans leading up to the big game.

So, who had the most appropriate response to your "what can I expect?" thread?
I open the package from Amazon and there is a black box with KOUROS written in white letters. The ingredients are listed on the back of the box. Alcohol, water, then the parfum. It is 875233-03.
I open the black Kouros box, and a white Kouros bottle is inside. 100ml. The only metal is on the sprayer. This must be the new reformulation.
Here it comes. The first spray. The first wiff. I am excited. This is what I have been waiting for!
That is what I smell. Lots of alcohol. It smells like a doctor took a cotton ball and wiped with alcohol.
I settle myself down and say wait. Let the alcohol evaporate and smell again.
I'm not getting the dirty accord that so many people write about. No urinal cakes. No sweaty jock straps after wrestling with a horny musk deer that just made love to the town whore. No zoo smells. It doesn't smell like a mens locker room with hot steamy showers running. It doesn't smell like strong pee.
I'm getting a clean scent. It is powdery. It is soapy in a good way. It smells clean.
I want the civet! I want clove! I want skank!
Kouros is a weak scent. It is not very strong. It stays close to the skin. I have been wearing it for about 20 minutes now and I doubt this would last all day. It's too weak.
If vintage Kouros was a dirty-clean dichotomy, then YSL removed the dirty accord and only left the clean scent.
It's been drying down for half an hour. The only scent is soap and powder.
I want a creamy undertone! And dirty!
It's time to find a vintage bottle of Kouros. There has to be one somewhere. What a shame YSL castrated what must have been the best dirty fragrance. Is there anything like the original Kouros?
If the original Kouros was a sweaty football player after a game, the new Kouros is a chess player after using hand sanatizer.
Vintage Kouros rocks
So, who had the most appropriate response to your "what can I expect?" thread?
I just got a light smell of honey.
The smell of honey was there for a second and then gone! It vanished.
What's going on?
It was a delightful smell. Come back!
Vintage Kouros rocks
Wow. If you think that Kouros is a weak, clean, skin scent, I think you will be hard pressed to find what you're truly looking for in a perfume. Perhaps you could procure your own civet cat to milk each morning, or maybe try Dior Leather Oud.
Kouros evolves, this is true. Has it really gotten that soft recently???
I am the last one to post on the original thread. Smellgood4u, take a look at my response, when you have a chance please. I am very curious to find out what YSL has done here.
Are you sure your nose is ok? Any chance you've got a cold or some sort of allergies? I sniffed Kouros at a local shop recently and it smelled nothing like what you're describing.
Anybody have a sample of Martin Margiela Untitled or Untitled L'Eau? I'm dying to smell these and I've got lots of great niche samples to swap!
"Follow your nose. It always knows." -- Toucan Sam
Kouros is becoming sweeter on my skin. The honey comes and goes, mostly goes. If I smell honey, it is only for a second then it is gone.
There is less soap smell in the dry down. It is lightly soapy now. The soap is leaving.
I still do not get any civet. No clove. Nothing dirty. Nothing sexual.
I do not get any woods you mentioned. The sweetness I am getting is like a very light amber. But it's not amber. I can't put my finger on it.
In the 5 minutes I have written this reply, sniffing every couple seconds, the honey has only come twice for a short visit. The powder is there.
Kouros is a clean scent. I'm still waiting for any hints of dirty or musky or civet. None so far.

*Gets the same feeling Obi-Wan Kenobi had when the Death Star blew up Alderaan*
I have a feeling you would enjoy that fragrance you have to pee into.
Anyone recall who did that or what it was called?
Also, you may like Secretions Magnifique.
^ lol, it was an O'driu perfume, not sure which one.
Current Kouros is a touch cleaner than vintage, but it is still dirty. I've had the same reaction with another person, though. Presumably, it's simply that you are anosmic to the particular musk that features prominently in Kouros (which is not actual civet, which does not exist anymore in mainstream perfumery). Everybody has his or her own blind spots in musks, so you've probably found yours (I have found people who said that oud 27 smells soapy, and oud 27 beats Kouros anytime).
Before dousing yourself in cleanliness, thogh, I recommend you ask other opinions, in case they do, indeed, smell the musk.
There must have been a new reformulation since the white bottle with metal spray was released.
In the vintage Kouros thread, there is a picture of the pre-reformulation ingredient list and the post reformulation ingredient list.
The vintage Kouros is alcohol, parfum, water, batch 2YFO2-2
The reformulated Kouros is alcohol, parfum, water, batch 2YF02-3
Both of the above have BENZYL BENZONATE as the 5th ingredient.
My box of the newest reformulation is: alcohol, water, parfum, batch 875233-03. BENZYL BENZONATE is the 19th ingredient.
This is different than the reformulation from last year. The bottle is all white with only metal around the tester, which is what the last reformulation was, but it's been reformulated again.
- - - Updated - - -
If you want to hear a conspiracy theory, read on...
Could it be that YSL released the reformulation in the new white bottle with metal spray in a slightly weakened Kouros. A juice that was similar to the old Kouros with the dirty notes but just slightly weaker.
Get everyone to accept the slightly weaker Kouros juice.
Wait a year. Now release a more watered down Kouros in the same bottle. Even more watered down than the reformulation in 2010/2011.
People will be arguing over how weak the juice is. The people who have the first reformulation will say it's a little less civet, but drys down the same as the original, and still has a dirty vibe. People with the second reformulation will be confused why they can't smell any civit.
My reasoning is based on the list of ingredients from the old metal bottle, to the new white bottle, to what I recieved. The ingredients between older Kouros (pre 2010), the first reformulation in the new bottle (2011/2012), and my bottle (2013) is different.
Parfum went from #2 on the ingredient list to #3, and water jumped up to be the second ingredient.
It is a shame Kouros isn't sold in the store because on-line we don't know what we are getting. Even if we know it is the white bottle with metal spray, we don't know if we're getting the 2010/2011/2012 juice or the 2013 juice. The only way to know is to read the ingredients and see if Parfum is second or third in ingredients. No sellers are providing this information.
This would be a sneaky way for YSL to get two reformulations out in a year, to water it down, but confuse people so they second guess their nose and think the newest watered down Kouros is the same as what was released in 2011/2012.
Vintage Kouros rocks
You should check out Leather Oud if you are looking for a bit of civet skank.
Kouros has changed on my skin over 2 hours. This is an amazing fragrance.
Imagine being in a large 100'X100' room crowded with hundreds of clean washed people. Everyone smells clean, soapy, powdery, and clean. Everyone except for one person who smells like honey. Everyone is moving around in the room so its possible to get wiffs and pick up on scents that quickly disappear. Every now and then there is a faint scent of honey, but it goes away and I'm not sure what direction to walk in to pick up on more of the honey. This was Kouros for the first two hours. But as time goes by, the one person who smelled like honey is smelling a little dirtier, leaving little hints of sweat, and now some of the clean people smell like honey. The soapy smell is now in the background. The smell of the room is changing. This is how Kouros evolved on my skin.
Kouros, where have you been all my life? This is great juice. There is more honey now than at first. But overall it is a weak scent. I doubt this would project at all. I can only smell it if I put my hand under my nose.
Vintage Kouros rocks
2 spray in the morning and everybody in the house knows what i am wearing for a
couple of days..lol..
However one wants to classify it, it's a fine scent IMO.
I just got out of the shower and am going out to meet friends for drinks. I put on 5 sprays of Kouros. I'll report back tonight what everyone thought. Maybe I'll do 2 more sprays to make sure it projects.
Vintage Kouros rocks
"Le parfum est la musique du corps"
(Marcel Rochas)
7 sprays of Kouros? If your friends leave the premises with an excuse, you know why. But many people, of either sex, consider it very sexy, so you may also strike gold.
I don't have a vintage bottle to compare to so weather the current has any significant differences I have no idea. What I can say though this frag is still extremely potent. Just a spray on each wrist stayed with me ALL day at work without turning into a skin scent while getting huge wafts of it.
I'm back from dinner, and nobody noticed 8 sprays of Kouros. It is watered down.
I would rather have a vintage bottle where 2 sprays is overkill than a new bottle where 8 sprays does nothing.
Vintage Kouros rocks
This is disheartening. I like a lot of the powerhouse frags such as Paco Rabanne PH and Aramis. I have Kouros on the way to sample it. I will be extremely disappointed if it is not as overbearing as many claim. Even if it smells like honey and powder.
To be honest, I thought Kouros was a great work of art, but it's not something I would wear. I really liked the soapy floral musky opening, but then I found the drydown really repulsive and wanted it off my skin (but it lasted 12 hours whether I liked it or not).
I'm just not into animalic musty scents.
Ive heard that its about half as strong as older formulations. It really comes alive in the heat mixed with sweat. Great fragrance.

I wore vintage/first formulation a couple days ago. After the powerful opening, the major players seemed to be honey/vanilla, animalics, and a "clean" smoke/musk quality. There was some patchouli, spice, etc. but those three seemed to come to the forefront. I intend to wear what I think is the last formulation before the chrome trim was taken off some of the bottle and I can report back on that one.

Did you try smelling it blindfolded?
I had kouros at the top of my "to buy list" and now I'm not so sure with all the reformulations and what not. So your saying the 2YF02-3 is still good? If so I will keep an eye out for it. Are there pics posted anywhere of the box just for a referance to go by?
I tried the reformulation on a paper strip and it didn't even last a day on the strip while the vintage would last for weeks.
The reformulation is definitely weaker and not "dirty".
This reformulation might be more appealing to the average costumer who likes his fragrances fresh and clean but I find it a shame that they removed all the interesting parts.
There is no way that a longtime user of Kouros won't notice the difference.
I think it is disrespectful to both Pierre Bourdon and the longtime users to reformulate so drastically.
This is the one to get if you want to know what Kouros is all about: ('Eau de toilette' written on the middle of the bottle):
Gorgeous stuff of which less is more (2-3 sprays max indeed for a full day)!
My Top '10' : (In no particular order)
- Dolce & Gabbana: Pour Homme (vintage)
- Pal Zileri: Cuoio
- Loewe: Esencia/Pour Homme/Solo
- Davidoff: Leather Blend Edp
- Revillon R
- MPG: Santal Noble
- Acqua di Parma: Colonia Intensa /Leather/Oud
- Knize Ten
- Annick Goutal: Ambre Fetiche
- YSL: Kouros (Fraicheur)
First off - you need to get one thing clear immediately.
You did not buy a bottle from Yves Saint Laurent. You purchased a bottle of L'Oreal fragrance with the logo from Yves Saint Laurent. The company sold after his passing (the brilliance and integrity of ALL of the fragrances that L'Oreal kept were reformulated!) and his legacy is in bottles up to 2008. After that, you are giving a large cosmetic company money for heavily reformulated bottles. I have not and will not purchase a bottle of any classic Yves Saint Laurent fragrance that was made after 2008 (I actually try to find 2007 and prior to be certain, although reformulations did happen a little later).
The only fragrance I have purchased from the contemporary line is La Nuit de L'Homme...and it is, unto itself, a very good scent with a wonderful feel. Ropion had his hand on this along with Anne Flipo & Pierre Wargnye - all have incredible resumes! This, to me, as it was released in March 2009 - possibly was the last bottle that the house of YSL (and possibly the legendary man himself) had a part in producing.
If you want Kouros - buy the real thing. And, my friend cacio is correct, civet was taken out of fragrance years ago. A very early bottle of Kouros may contain a small amount but civetone is the synthetic ingredient that was mainly used over the years. I have very early Kouros and next to later Vintage Kouros - it is indeed more pronounced as a note. It is as skanky as a three-way 'party' at the Bunny Ranch...!
Stuff that wet dreams are made of!
Thank you, Slayerized for the beautiful portrait of what real Kouros is...sorry, was.
Some perfumes are as fragrant as an infants flesh, sweet as an oboes cry, and greener than the spring; While others are triumphant, decadent or rich; Having the expansion of infinite things, like ambergris and musk, benzoin and frankincense, which sing the transports of the mind and every sense.
― Charles Baudelaire, The Flowers of Evil & Paris Spleen

Well, I'll be. Turns out it isn't just food trucks that are causing a stir on the food scene. The people who talk about, photograph, write about and eat food are – simultaneously – labeled as responsible for culinary art reaching heights never before seen in our lifetimes…and also ruining the experience for everybody.
With the stratospheric popularity of absolutely everything Food Network, Cooking Channel and celebrity chef cook-offs, there are fans. Lots of them. And some are well-behaved and grateful for the exposure to a type of artistry that goes in their belly. Some are a little less…reserved: taking their new-found knowledge/obsession and loudly pontificating about produce; stalking certain restaurateurs as if they were rockstars; and occasionally…well…just generally making an ass out of themselves.
In the best of cases, the obsession with ingestion has to do with serious food politics: Big Agra, US school lunches, fast food – these things are Bad. Working to make a difference in the system so that people across all socio-economic systems have affordable access to healthy food is Good. But blindly spouting off about Jamie Oliver to the guy who's working the grill at your neighborhood block party is Annoying.
In the worst of cases, there's an unapologetic snobbery that feels more like playground bullying than breaking bread. Not everyone can afford a jar of artisan elderflower honey cultivated by monks in Tibet, and – for most of us – a dollop of Sue Bee will do just fine. Sometimes you just have to get over it. Like Grandma always says, that's the way the Scottish shortbread cookie, crafted exquisitely of stone-ground wheat flour and creamy Irish butter, cradling a soupçon of ruby-hued English strawberry preserves crumbles.
But these days everyone seems to have a camera and an opinion, and – often – an attitude of entitlement that's a little hard to swallow. And the general irritation within the food writing world seems to be at a boiling point. There has been a recent blaze of "friendly" fire (or, perhaps, flambe?) directed at the very culture which feeds the most voracious of the eater/complainers. Food bloggers are fed up with foodies.
This war of words is happening everywhere. From the always entertaining Shut Up Foodies folks in New York, to Katharine Shilcutt's rage-inciting article on Houston Press Blogs, "Has the 'Foodie' Backlash Begun?" In LA, there's Amy Scattergood and her two-part SquidInk post, the "Top10 Foodie Words We Hate: Starting With Foodie"; and Heather John, who wrote in the September issue of Bon Appetit: "Somewhere along the revolutionary road, honest artisans who used to be known as bartenders became loftily titled 'mixologists,' and alchemy gave way to the absurd." A lot of people are pretty fired up over the way we talk about food.
Given the heated political and social atmosphere in the food world, it's not always easy to tell which words are going to set someone off. So, in an effort to carefully navigate the minefield of spicy hot emotion and avoid getting myself into some sort of linguistic pickle, I'm writing today's Food Truck Times post without using any word, phrase or description that might incite food people to anger.
Here goes:
The end.

In a "friend of the court" brief filed at the deadline, Solicitor General Don Verrilli argues:
Proposition 8's denial of marriage to same-sex couples, particularly where California at the same time grants same-sex partners all the substantive rights of marriage, violates equal protection. The Fourteenth Amendment's guarantee of equal protection embodies a defining constitutional ideal that "all persons similarly situated should be treated alike.
The object of California's establishment of the legal relationship of domestic partnership is to grant committed same-sex couples rights equivalent to those accorded a married couple. But Proposition 8, by depriving same-sex couples of the right to marry, denies them the "dignity, respect, and stature" accorded similarly situated opposite-sex couples under state law, Strauss, 207 P.3d at 72, and does not substantially further any important governmental interest. It thereby denies them equal protection under the law.
Under that argument, Verrilli said, same-sex marriage in seven other states with broad domestic partnership rights already on the books would also immediately become legal.
The so-called "eight state solution" would cover: California, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Nevada, New Jersey, Oregon and Rhode Island.
That logic could, in theory, challenge bans on same-sex marriage in states that have constitutional bans.
Proposition 8 was originally passed by California voters in November 2008 to deny same-sex couples the right to marry after the California courts had ruled gay marriage legal. Thus, thousands of California gay couples hold legal marriages in the state, while for others marriage is inaccessible, thus providing the argument made by the Ninth Circuit Court in overturning the measure.
Nine states and the District of Columbia already allow same-sex marriage, five by state legislature (Maryland, New Hampshire, New York, Vermont, Washington), three by court rulings (Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts) and one by voter-approved ballot (Maine).

These unique Mink eyelashes are individually hand made, and do not use any chemicals, processing, or dyes. They are reusable over and over again, and are an excellent investment in comparison to cheaper quality or synthetic lashes. With proper care they can be reused up to 30 times. Each set of lashes comes in our beautifully crafted storage box, instructions, and high quality eyelash glue.
Maintenance tips: Do not allow contact with water. Remove and store properly after each use.
Follow these tips for an easy install:
- Remove eyelash from molded storage tray, by starting to peel the outer edge.
- If needed, trim the lash with scissors to match the width of your eye.
- While holding the lash with tweezers, apply a hairline strip of adhesive to the edge of the eyelash band.
- After 30 seconds, apply the eyelash onto your eye lid, as close as possible to your own lash line.
Helpful Hints & Tips
- These lashes are cruelty free, and good for up to 30 wears with proper maintenance.
- Lashes, and residual glue can be removed with a gentle oil free eye makeup remover.
- Oil based products will make reapplication very difficult because it will form a barrier between the lash strip and adhesive.
- Tweezers are ideal for removal of especially stubborn spots of adhesive (after lash removal).

Diabetes Dateline
Winter 2011
NDEP Urges Women with a History of Gestational Diabetes to Take Action to Prevent Diabetes
The National Diabetes Education Program (NDEP), a joint program of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, has partnered with the NIH Office of Research on Women's Health to expand and enhance a gestational diabetes awareness initiative called "It's Never Too Early to Prevent Diabetes: A Lifetime of Small Steps for a Healthy Family." The initiative aims to help women with a history of gestational diabetes and their families learn about the future health risks associated with gestational diabetes and take steps to reduce risks.The primary goals of this campaign are to
- decrease the incidence of diabetes among women with a history of gestational diabetes
- increase awareness of the future risks for obesity and type 2 diabetes among children born from pregnancies affected by gestational diabetes
- expand outreach to health care professionals who are counseling women about future health risks and the importance of adopting and maintaining healthy behaviors in families affected by gestational diabetes
Gestational diabetes is a type of diabetes that occurs during pregnancy and affects about 7 percent of all U.S. pregnancies—about 200,000 pregnancies each year. Women with a history of gestational diabetes have a 40 to 60 percent chance of developing diabetes in the 5 to 10 years after delivery. Additionally, children born to mothers who had gestational diabetes are also at increased risk for obesity and type 2 diabetes as they grow up. Women who have had gestational diabetes should be tested for diabetes 6 to 12 weeks after their baby is born and at least every 3 years after that.
NDEP materials include information to help women with a history of gestational diabetes—and their whole family—take steps to lower their risk for developing diabetes. Visit www.ndep.nih.gov/am-i-at-risk/gdm or see the tip sheet titled It's Never Too Early to Prevent Diabetes: A Lifetime of Small Steps for a Healthy Family at www.ndep.nih.gov/publications/PublicationDetail.aspx?PubId=93. The tip sheet is also available in Spanish. In addition, the NDEP has free posters, articles, and other resources about preventing type 2 diabetes and managing diabetes to prevent complications. Visit www.yourdiabetesinfo.org or call 1–888–693–NDEP (1–888–693–6337) for more information.

Dog fighting is a huge problem, and sometimes it can seem that you can't do much to help as an individual. But there are a few things you can do to stop it now, and we really need your help.
Why? Take it from those of us who have seen dog fighting compounds first-hand: Life as a dog used for fighting is a nightmare.
They live chained up or in a tiny cage. They don't get the veterinary care they need. They die in the ring or are unceremoniously shot for losing. Some are used as "bait" for other dogs. Some have litter after litter. Some starve. Some go without water for days.
Odds are that dog fighting is happening in your state right now. We need your help to stop it. Give dog fighting victims three minutes of your time?
1. Ask your U.S. representative to support the Animal Fighting Spectator Prohibition Act.
The Animal Fighting Spectator Prohibition Act, introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives on January 23, would make it a federal offense to knowingly attend an organized animal fight and would impose additional penalties for bringing children to animal fights. Violators would face up to one year in prison for attending a fight, and up to three years in prison for bringing a minor to a fight.
You can help the bill along by contacting your rep. We've made it easy at the ASPCA Advocacy Center, and we promise it only takes a few minutes, tops.
2. Download our new anti-dog fighting toolkit for citizen advocates.
If you're as horrified by dog fighting as we are, and you think you might want to commit more time to stopping dog fighting in the near future, download our new toolkit developed with the U.S. Department of Justice. It's got everything you need to know to get more involved. (We admit, actually reading it will take more than three minutes, but you get the idea.)
3. Fight Pit Bull prejudice via social media.
Pit Bulls and dogs who look like Pit Bulls get a bad rap because of their reputation as fighting dogs. Fight it by becoming a tireless advocate for them on your social networks. Start by posting the profile of a cute, adoptable Pit Bull-type dog on Facebook (we suggest Pet of the Week Champion) or sharing a happy tail about a Pit.
You can even share the story of a rehabilitated ex-fighting dog, like Ninja.
Oh, and of course, a bonus fourth thing you can do: Share this post on your social networks.
Easy, right? Together we can make a huge difference, and to the dogs who are suffering right now at the hands of fighters, it means the world.
To learn about a few more ways to fight back against blood sports, view our 10 ways to help end dog fighting and get educated about the issue on our dog fighting page.
On behalf of the dogs, thank you!
Join the ASPCA Advocacy Brigade!
By joining the ASPCA Advocacy Brigade, you will receive important alerts from us when we need your help to fight for laws against animals cruelty.
Criminals that get arrested for dog fighting (or ANY animal fighting) should be given a dull knife and and put into a ring with another criminal of the same ilk, to fight to the death. The "winner" gets no medical assistance, and will continue to fight every week until losing. Works for me.
These poor dogs have got a bad name. My mother and I have had Bull Terriers and Staffordshire Bull Terriers since 1947.known as killers. It is how you bring them up. We gave them and still give love and tenderness and you could not come across more lovable dogs w2ith children and other dogs.
These monsters who train pit bulls,staffies etc should be put in the pit against the poor dogs that they HAVE made killers and see how they would like it.
Govenments should bring in severs legislation and prison sentences against these horrors.
People should be put in nail for doping This!
animal fighting rings, it is a felony in 50 states. we should take this further and impose dog support (like child support) on all persons that do harm or create harm on animals for a number of years. and these people should be on a crime list, such as a pedophile list. and no longer be able to control any animal.
if a person downloads a photo of a child, or in any way has ANY thing to do with children in a sexual manner. they will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. we can take this same care to our animals. if you are downloading, or watching animal violence, or creating or attending the violence to animals you are punished. jailed,and on a violence list, and a animal support system for a number of years that is governed by the state. this creates jobs in many different ways, and creates revenue for the state, and for the abused and homeless animals, and for the medical attention and housing that animal will need, and it will create revenue for officials to combat this crime.
this will be self sustaining. Rewording the current child support guidlines, and child advocacy laws would work very well.
stop this evil straight from HELL practice.......these people are from pits of Hell and will return to these pits when they die. Pray for Holy spirit to convict each one of them. pray for extremely strict laws to punish.
stop this evil straight from HELL practice.......these people are from pits of Hell and will return to these pits when they die. Pray for Holy spirit to convict each one of them. pray for extremely strict laws to punish.
Dog fighting is disgusting, using dogs to fight till the death all for some money its sick and should be stopped, maybe if the owners want so much money maybe they should go fight
People who participate in any kind of animal fighting are promoting abuse and violence. No living creature should ever be hurt at the hands of anouther. It's just not right and makes this world a bad scary place!
The dog fighters,people who attend should get more than just a year in jail.I say put them thru what the poor dogs go thru!!
Better yet,turn them over to the pet owners who they stole the dogs from.Let them give them the justice that they have coming to them!!Jail is just too good for them!!They need the pet owners
justice given too them!!
I posted a youtube video as a response and got lots of views, you should try this it's easy too :-)

These athletes know a thing or two about having the perfect body ... and the perfect body art
We don't know about you, but we're obsessed with the London Olympics. Between Ryan Lochte's colorful grill, the fabulous nail art on the swimmers, and Gabby Douglass' looped pony, there's just so much to get excited about. (Oh yeah ... and those medals!) But we wouldn't be Beauty Riot if we didn't also take note of all the tattoos appearing at the Games.
Whether it's the standard Olympic rings or a deeply personal inked message, it seems like every athlete has some type of body art. And can you blame them? These Olympic athletes spend years working on their bodies, sculpting and toning until they can jump, arch, split, and splash better than anyone else. We'd definitely want to put a tattoo on a body like that too.
Click here to see the top 12 Olympic tattoos.
Plus, we can't think of a better time to show off your special ink. With millions of people tuning in, a captive audience is a sure thing. (We just hope mom and dad approve before these athlete's take their starting places!) To see what tattoos these Olympic athletes are willing to permanently ink on their perfect bodies, keep clicking.
Then, tell us: Which tattoos do you like the best? Leave your comment below.

Roots Lab
The overall research focus of the Roots Lab at Penn State is understanding the genetic, physiological, and ecological basis of plant adaptation to infertile soils.
Since most soils on earth suffer from one or more nutritional problems, this subject is of considerable importance for two of the great challenges confronting humanity: how to sustainably support over 7 billion people, and how to deal with global environmental change. More about the Roots Lab ...
We welcome prospective graduate students and collaborators interested in novel, multidisciplinary research that addresses real world issues.
Our work involves a number of students and colleagues at Penn State, and collaborators from other institutions. Dr. Kathleen Brown and Dr. Jonathan Lynch are close collaborators on virtually all aspects of the research.

June 6, 2013
Fonda Theatre, Los Angeles, CA
On tours like these (and especially when playing intimate venues like the Beacon and Fonda), there are moments that happen every night that go undocumented but hopefully not unnoticed. One of those moments happened Thursday night.
Shortly after Tom and Mike arrived at the Fonda Thursday night, the whole band huddled in a backstage dressing room underneath the old Hollywood theatre to discuss the setlist.
Inside a narrow rectangular room lined with vanity mirrors, Tom looked over setlists from the previous nights as Scott and Mike looked on. Richard popped his head in to make sure everyone was ok. Ron changed shirts, handing one off to Queenie. Ferrone checked out a new snare drum. Benmont leaned up against a corner, watching silently. After a few minutes of conferring with the others, Tom handed the handwritten setlist to Richard, who disappeared to type it up and distribute it to the road crew.
Standing in the doorway of this tiny little dressing room, it might be easy to forget that the six musicians crammed in here putting together tonight's setlist are Rock 'n Roll Hall of Famers and hometown legends. And maybe that's the goal of this tour and these residencies: to get back to a time when Tom and the guys were free to play whatever songs they wanted to and do it in intimate rooms where an appreciative audience sweats just as hard as the band.
Set List:
Rock & Roll Star
Love Is A Long Road
Don't Do Me Like That
When The Time Comes
Green Onions
Takin' My Time
Born In Chicago
Woman In Love
Have Love Will Travel
I'd Like To Love You Baby

Maternity fashion that flatters
Pea in the Pod
Prints, florals and stripes, like the striped shirt above, are a good choice for maternity wear.
Pea in the Pod
Streamlined looks, like this two-piece striped top and skirt set, best suit a baby bump, fashion experts say.

Kim Kardashian, shown in February, has taken heat from the tabloids and armchair fashion critics for her maternity look, which seems a continuation of her usual parade of body-hugging dresses.

Jessica Simpson, pregnant with her first child, poses at the 25th Annual Footwear News Achievement Awards at The Museum of Modern Art in New York on Nov. 29, 2011.
Associated Press
Even before she was pregnant, Kate Middleton, shown earlier this month, wore clothes with simple and flattering silhouettes that work well for maternity wear.
To be stylish and pregnant, you need to embrace your new shape. You have to celebrate it. But you also need to be aware of it, and not keep wearing your regular wardrobe -- even if it's a size up.
Kardashian, who is expecting her first child with Kanye West in July, has taken heat from the tabloids and armchair fashion critics for her maternity look, which seems a continuation of her usual parade of body-hugging dresses, tucked-in blouses, complicated couturelike details and super-high heels.
Lately, though, it seems she's taken the plunge into maternity clothes, sometimes wearing stretch-waist maternity jeans (designer, of course) and leggings.
Pea in the Pod design director Olivia Capone Myers says leggings are the No. 1 must-have item for a successful pre- and post-baby wardrobe. Leggings, along with side-ruched T-shirts and dresses, preferably made of stretch jersey, are the first things to buy when the bump starts showing, and they're the last ones you're wearing after mom and baby are settled in at home, Myers says.
Myers, herself eight months pregnant, says the current wave of celebrity moms-to-be has reignited interest in this corner of the fashion world, which is sometimes more relatable to shoppers than the runway.
"Jessica Simpson ... she's really done an amazing job of looking fabulous," Myers says. "She has tweaked her style, moving from heels to flats but still polished."
Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton possesses what might be the world's most famous baby bump, and she has made a seamless transition into her slightly revamped look.
She already wore "mostly pretty, flattering and simple silhouettes -- dresses, coats, hats and monochromatic color," exactly what style expert Amy Tara Koch would suggest. Koch is the author of the book "Bump It Up."
Other tips from Koch: Kimono sleeves instantly create the bohemian vibe that works well in maternity wear, and so do tunic tops with a blousoned dropped waist.
Dangling earrings draw the eye to the slope of the neck and shoulders, and a chunky necklace worn against a jewel neck or slightly scooped or V-neck shirt emphasizes the bustline upward.
"You want to create a focal point that will take attention from elsewhere," Koch says.
Jersey fabric with its tight-weave stretch is good camouflage (and not just for pregnant women). Designer Abi Ferrin says good jersey will stretch and shrink with the body, and that the weight of the fabric smooths bumps.
Myers notes that what's in maternity stores now reflects broader fashion trends. "The mistake I see most is the mentality that they think they have to stay away from stripes, or florals or prints because they fear them to be unflattering, but I think the opposite is true," she says.
A clean, sharp nautical stripe, for example, will break up the bump.

text: Comment: Bought these hoping for the best, and boy did I get it. Was suprised of the overall size. Very nice for packing items up for a nice all day ride with much room to spare. And they look great. Almost match my factory leather seat perfectly. Overall, great size and look at an awesome price. Was shocked how fast it got to me. Ordered on a monday, was installing them on my bike on thursday. I do recommend though also buying the throw over bag brace kit from HD as it did hang down and rubbed sidewall of my rear tire slightly, but the kit definitly put them outside of ever making contact again. Again, awesome buy for the price and size and look go great on my bike.

Let us help you rent or sell your own home privately with our for sale by owner services for Perth, Sydney, Brisbane and throughout Australia. Since we invented "agent assisted private sales" in 2004, we've helped thousands of people sell and rent their homes without paying a single dollar in commission.
To sell your own house without commission was often seen as a hard task, but not anymore. In 2004 we invented what we called agent assisted private sales which are similar to for sale by owner services. Since then we've helped thousands of people sell and rent their properties without paying a single dollar in commission. Our for sale by owner listings are accepted by realestate.com.au and domain.com.au, so by listing with us, the property will displayed where it counts.
You can use our for sale by owner services wherever you are in Australia, whether it is is Perth, Sydney, Brisbane, or somewhere else!
Your property needs to be listed where buyers search! In the past, the downside of selling your property yourself, or trying to rent your house out privately was that you couldn't access the major "agent only" websites like realestate.com.au. By listing with PropertyNow you can ensure your property gets the maximum exposure possible! We'll also guide you through the entire process so that you can successfully sell your property yourself or to rent your house out privately with ease.
We know selling your own home can be daunting so we pride ourselves on customer service. You can reach us seven days a week via phone, email, live chat, or SMS. You'll always get a real person who can help with any issues or questions you have, and for the duration of all marketing, you'll always have access to an experienced, licensed, real estate professional.
PropertyNow has the only reliable phone enquiry system in the industry. If you're comparing companies we advise you try an enquiry by phone as a buyer. With PropertyNow, buyers are given your details straight away. With our competitors, the first thing your buyers hear is an ad for private selling. That's bad enough. Then your buyer gets told to go back to realestate.com.au to email their enquiry. Make it easy for your buyers to reach you - not harder!
PropertyNow has the cheapest price in the industry for realestate.com.au's Featured Property. This upgrade can deliver 2-3 times more views on your listing!
PropertyNow is the only long-term, trustworthy provider. In fact, we've been leading the industry for over 10 years. Unlike other companies, we've never been kicked off realestate.com.au

Great news, animal advocates! Yesterday U.S. Reps. Tom Marino (R-PA), Jim McGovern (D-MA), John Campbell (R-CA) and Jim Moran (D-VA) reintroduced the Animal Fighting Spectator Prohibition Act, an ASPCA-supported bill to strengthen our federal laws against animal fighting.
While it's already a federal crime to actively participate in an animal fight, it's the spectators who drive the enterprise and make it profitable. This bill would make it a federal offense to attend an organized animal fight and impose additional penalties for bringing a child to a fight.
The Senate passed this bill in the previous Congress, but even with over half the House in support, Congress was unable to pass a final bill. Reintroducing this bill in the early days of the new Congress gives us an opportunity to build on the momentum from the last Congress and help finally close the federal loophole for animal fighting spectators.
Ask your own House representative to support this important humane legislation! Visit the ASPCA Advocacy Center right now to quickly email your U.S. rep in Washington and urge him or her to cosponsor the Animal Fighting Spectator Prohibition Act.
People that abuse animals should be subject to the same laws and consequences as those who abuse their fellow man. These animals are defenseless and cannot ask for help; they need someone to speak for them. Please help!
Help stop such a heart breaking issue. Why? Why in Gods name would anyone want to watch fighting like this, very sad ! What has happened to this world, to people?
This is disgusting! How can anyone find animal abuse entertaining! It's sick!!!!
Please pass this legislation. We must do anything & everything to stop this horrid abuse.
I feel what should happen is America should have a very strike law for people to have pets. I feel every dog owner that wants to have an animal that is not spayed or neutered show pay every year until they spat the animal. More thought should be put into laws for people who want to have a pet but abuse them, or fight them.
We don't own the world.
Let the animals live !
Please stop this cruel insanity!!!
If you use any Pets, for anything else but Love it is Abuse. We are here to Protect them.
Shame on us.
Anyone who takes pleasure from another living being's pain should stop calling themselves human...
People who can abuse & neglect animals are on the same level as people who can abuse & neglect children. It's not a stretch from one to the other. Anyone who mistreats any being who is dependent on them, weaker deserves JAIL!!
