Rosy bubble bar for soft skin
The Bubbleroon is our newest style of Bubble Bar inspired by delicious, handmade macaroons. Rose Jam is based on a decadent traditional Turkish recipe for rose jam that our Turkish rose absolute supplier shares with us every year, and is made with our sophisticated new rose perfume. Rose oil and rose absolute not only smell amazing but they are also fantastic for soothing dry, sensitive skin. The rosy fragrance paired with the coconut oil "icing" that sticks the two halves of this Bubbleroon together make for a majorly moisturizing, softening and luxurious soak.
- Two for one: Want more of a great thing? Each Bubbleroon is made for two baths!
- Rosy outlook: Hop in the tub for the silkiest, softiest, rosiest-scented bubbles you've ever had.
- A real softy: With Fair Trade Shea Butter in the base, Bubbleroons treat the skin to a softening and moisturizing soak.

Q:What bath bombs go along with this bubble bar?Asked on 4/18/2015 by Anonymous
1 answer
A:I would recommend either Rose Queen, or the seasonal Rose Bombshell! Both of these have a lovely rose scent to them and would compliment this bubble bar very nicely! They also both contain rose petals, which gives that extra relaxing ambiance!Answered on 4/19/2015 by Sal from LUSH Direct
Q:Does this product expire?Asked on 9/15/2014 by Elise
1 answer
A:Freshness is really important to us and for best results we recommend using our products as fresh as possible. That said, you can use your bubble bars and bath bombs within 14 months of purchase.Answered on 9/25/2014 by Rene from LUSH Direct
Q:I'm so obsessed with this scent, is there a lotion that smells like this?Asked on 4/26/2012 by Sie by the Sea from Outer Banks, North Carolina
5 answers
A:Good news if you're still interested! They just added a massage bar (solid lotion) that is called "Pearl" and is scented with the popular Rose Jam scent!Answered on 1/2/2015 by Laura the Lush Lover from Coral Springs, Fl
A:I would recommend the Rose Argon Body Conditioner. It has a very similar, rose-based scent and is super moisturizing.Answered on 6/10/2012 by thirdformer from Louisville, KY
A:There isn't a lotion in this fragrance, but we do have a wonderful body conditioner called Ro's Argan Body Conditioner which smells exactly the same as this rosy beauty!Answered on 5/3/2012 by Megan from LUSH
A:Sadly no, as far as I'm aware, LUSH doesn't have any rose-scented lotion, let alone the particular Rose Jam scent.
However, the Ro's Argan Body Conditioner that LUSH makes is a wash-off lotion that you use in the shower that is the EXACT SAME scent. I definitely suggest that one; it's delightful! There was also a limited edition Rose Jam Perfume that I was able to pick up at my LUSH store a few months ago. It might still be available online somewhere :) Good luck!Answered on 5/14/2012 by Becs from LA, CA
A:sadly, no... The closest you'll come to a "lotion" with even a rose smell is Ro's Argan (which i can't really recommend... the idea of a body conditioner doesn't entirely wow me). If you're feeling adventurous, I believe the stores have smaller tubs of Ro's Argan at the moment (only about 5 dollars). you can test it out and see what it's like! who know's it might be just as wonderful, except for the shower.Answered on 5/16/2012 by eric.d. from tampa, FL

"Ordered a sample in the yellow. Paper quality is great. Paper is a little crinkly (ordered the basic paper) which I like. Paper stands up well. Love the colors. The website mock up is pretty darn close to the actual colors which is great!!"
"These place cards are great! Very simple chic, I'm glad we went with the white shimmer paper it added a little extra glam."
"These turned out perfect! It's very hard ordering items off the internet and hoping they are as perfect in person as they are on the computer screen. These didn't let me down! Beautifully done!"
"I went with the matte paper. The combination of the white paper and purple flowers looks amazing. The floral design is exactly as it appears in the picture. Although it looks small it gives a simple elegance to the card. I didn't print our names or the date of our wedding on the cards (I did keep the line to write the number) to ensure that the person writing our guests' names would have plenty if space. Even if you add some script on the top there's enough room to for most names. For the money these cards are very nice. I'm glad I ordered them."
"I don't have anything to say but thanks for your beautiful work. I've been your client for several months and my satisfaction is over the top :)"

Horrifying beasts with a hunger for human flesh prey on the citizens of a quiet town. In moonlit twilight, Saya slays the monsters and returns home drenched in blood. As the attacks increase in frequency and intensity, her enemies relay cryptic messages about a broken contract. Limbs are torn from flesh and skulls are crushed and devoured while the huntress struggles with paralyzing visions and gaping holes in her memory.
When the humans Saya promised to protect reveal the sickening truth about her role in the violence, she learns her mission isn't as clear cut as she thought - and her most sadistic foe of all is so close she can taste it.

Alert: The following services will be unavailable on Saturday, January 5, 2013 from 12 a.m. (midnight) to 6 a.m. CST due to system maintenance.
Local Force Account (LFA) agreements
Although WisDOT policy is to let construction agreements through a competitive bidding process, under special circumstances the department may negotiate directly with local governments for the performance of construction work. These negotiated agreements are allowed by Wisconsin Statute 84.06(3).
Local Force Account (LFA) agreements are used when a local unit of government works on its own local highway system or does work for the department on the state trunk highway system. The type of work associated with these projects may include traffic safety improvement and minor pavement/drainage improvements. It may also include pavement resurfacing, pavement replacement, reconditioning, and reconstruction. Under these agreements local governments are reimbursed for the actual costs incurred in performing the work, up to an agreement maximum (as amended by any change orders); however, the labor, material and machinery rates are projected in advance and must be determined to be cost effective. These agreements are to be based on the actual cost required to perform the work so that they cannot result in profit or loss for the unit of government performing the work. Any state, local or federal funding program for which the project is eligible may be used with this agreement type.
An overall summary of the recent history of LFAs on the local system of highways is available. Also available are recent and current LFA-local fiscal year programs. Note that not all of the projects in the current fiscal year program will be delivered. The current year program undergoes some changes as priorities are continually reassessed.
To better define allowable types of work, funding limitations, individual agreement limitations, etc., "A Policy on Construction of State and Federal Aid Highway Projects By Forces and Equipment of Counties or Other Local Governmental Units" has been developed by WisDOT. This policy also defines the items necessary to show that a negotiated agreement with a local unit of government is cost effective. Contact the WisDOT Region local project manager with questions about the policy.
Recent LFA policy and process changes have been reported on several memos to all local units of government. Additional policy and process changes will be reported on future memos.
E-mail questions about LFA policies and procedures.
You may also contact your local government organization representative with questions.

This page provides an overview of 1 article related to 'framework'. Note that filters may be applied to display a sub-set of articles in this category (see FAQs on filtering for usage tips). Select this link to remove all filters.
In computer programming, a software framework is an abstraction in which common code providing generic functionality can be selectively overridden or specialized by user code, thus providing specific functionality. Frameworks are a special case of software libraries in that they are reusable abstractions of code wrapped in a well-defined Application programming interface (API), yet they contain some key distinguishing features that separate them from normal libraries. There are different types of software frameworks: conceptual, application, domain, platform, component, service, development, etc.... The designers of software frameworks aim to facilitate software development by allowing designers and programmers to devote their time to meeting software requirements rather than dealing with the more standard low-level details of providing a working system, thereby reducing overall development time. For example, a team using a web application framework to develop a banking web-site can focus on the operations of account withdrawals rather than the mechanics of request handling and state management.

We'll Always Have Paris: Sex and Love in the City of Light
We'll Always Have Paris: Sex and Love in the City of Light (Paperback)
Related Editions
For more than a century, pilgrims from all over the world seeking romance and passion have made their way to the City of Light. The seductive lure of Paris has long been irresistible to lovers, artists, epicureans, and connoisseurs of the good life. Globe-trotting film critic and writer John Baxter heard her siren song and was bewitched. Now he offers readers a witty, audacious, scandalous behind-the-scenes excursion into the colorful all-night show that is Paris -- interweaving his own experience of falling in love, with a delightfully salacious tour of the sultry Parisian corners most guidebooks ignore: from the literary cafés of Hemingway, Fitzgerald, and de Beauvoir to the brothels where Dietrich and Duke Ellington held court, where Salvador Dali sated his fantasies, and Edward VII kept a sumptuous champagne bath for his favorite girls.
About the Author
John Baxter is an acclaimed film critic and biographer. His subjects have included Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Stanley Kubrick, and Robert De Niro. The co-director of the Paris Writers' Workshop, he is the translator of Harper Perennial's Naughty French Novels series, and is the author of Immoveable Feast: A Paris Christmas, We'll Always Have Paris, and A Pound of Paper: Confessions of a Book Addict. He lives in Paris.

Kagura and Yomi may look like ordinary school girls as they walk the streets of Tokyo clad in short skirts and knee-high socks, but they're the heroes you scream for when monsters creep out of the darkness. These sword-toting sisters are part of an elite counterattack unit that specializes in suppressing outbreaks of supernatural activity. They train together, live together, eat together, and spend their nights disemboweling demons with sacred blades together.
Tragedy strikes when Yomi is possessed by a dark spirit and Kagura must choose between raising her weapon against the eerily familiar face of ultimate evil or watching her flesh and blood slaughter innocent citizens. In a life-or-death battle that pits sister against sister, survival may be the greatest agony of all.

Jean de Villiers and Victor Matfield will be sidelined for 10 days following injuries sustained in Sunday's Test against Wales.
Springbok team doctor Craig Roberts confirmed on Monday that De Villiers suffered a grade one rib cartilage injury, while Matfield felt his hamstring tighten up in the second half. Both players were substituted because of their injuries, and have subsequently been ruled out of the next game against Fiji.
'We anticipate that they will both be out for 10 days,' said Roberts, suggesting the pair may be available for the clash against Namibia on 22 September. 'It was a precaution to bring Jean off, as we didn't want it to get any worse. With Victor, we feel it's a long tournament and want to give him as much time as possible to get over the injury.'
The news means that Johann Muller will be promoted to the starting lineup, while one of Butch James or Juan de Jongh could fill the void left by De Villiers. While Muller is an adequate replacement, his elevation will leave a gap on the Bok bench, and somebody like Willem Alberts may be asked to cover lock.
The Boks will be without their premier locking pair for Saturday's game against Fiji, as Bakkies Botha is still struggling with an Achilles injury. Reports that he may be out of the World Cup remain unconfirmed, but Roberts didn't sound too hopeful of a recovery when speaking to the media in Wellington.
'He's picked up an Achilles injury and it hasn't responded to treatment as well as we would have liked,' the Bok doctor said. 'We haven't made a decision [on his availability for the rest of the tournament yet].
Coach Peter de Villiers said this decision will be made 'sooner rather than later'.
While Alistair Hargreaves and Gerhard Mostert failed to make the initial World Cup squad, they were named on the list of 12 standby players. If Botha fails to recover from his injury, De Villiers may call up Mostert given that, like Botha, he is a specialist No 4 lock.

It's Thanksgiving, which for Northside means an early morning practice and then a hearty breakfast with the team and coaches before another family sit-down for turkey and all the fixings.
Talk about your perfect turkey day.
After a full-pad practice from 8 to 9:30 a.m., the Monarchs will shed their equipment and sit down for a full-plate breakfast special outside the concession stand adjacent to their field where some 36 hours later they'll take on Carrboro in the NCHSAA 2-AA East Regional final.
It's a rite of passage that every high school football team looks forward to because it means you're among the state's elite. You're still practicing and playing in late November while most of your competitors have put away their gear until next year.
Eat up!
"Everybody wants to be out there," coach Bob Eason said. "It's just fun. It's special no matter what you do (as a team on Thanksgiving). But that (cooking breakfast) just adds to it. We cook any kind of breakfast food you an imagine. It's a carnivore's delight. We feed them enough to make them happy, but not enough to make their mommas unhappy."
While the cookers will be fired up and the smell of bacon frying drift over to the practice field this morning, the Monarchs will have to wait to pig out until they polish off their last day of preparation for the Jaguars.
"We'll get after it like any other day," Eason said, "and do breakfast afterwards. It's kind of neat because (sons) Trey and Gage have got to do it, but they were ball boys (when Northside made four straight regional finals from 2005-08).
"Now it's kind of neat they're both getting to do it as players. So I'm looking forward to it."
In the past, Thanksgiving came the third week of playoffs, but now it's the fourth week, or regional final week, which gave Eason and the Monarchs added incentive to beat Bunn last week, which they did 28-10.
"I was like, 'I really hope we win so we can do breakfast,'" Eason said. "It does mean a lot. The kids that got to do it before, they still talk about it, that it was good, that it was fun. It's just one of those things you remember from high school."
Southwest, which travels to James Kenan on Friday for the 1-AA East Regional final, isn't doing anything as a team. Instead, the Stallions will practice from 9 a.m. and end no later than noon, according to coach Phil Padgett, who'll then let his players go home for their holiday feast.
Usually, Padgett practices Thanksgiving afternoon.
"This is the first time I've gone in the morning," he said. "I just did it to make it easier for people to get together with their families in the afternoon. It seems like people now eat at 2 p.m. and some eat at 4 p.m. (In the past) I was just trying to get it (practice) in between lunch and dinner. Now it seems like there's no such thing as in between."
Northside's opponent, Carrboro, will wait until Friday before leaving for Jacksonville for their team Thanksgiving meal. Coach Jason Tudryn will have the seniors cook the entire team a pancake breakfast.
"The seniors aren't super excited about that, but that's a tradition we started a couple years ago, so the kids are amped up about it," Tudryn said.
Asked if any of his players know how to cook, Tudryn replied: "No, absolutely not. You know what's funny is I end up doing all the work. But it ends up being a good memory. We have nine seniors, one's a kicker. So I don't even know if he knows how to make a pancake."
All three coaches are mindful they still have a game to play, so while they want their players to eat their fill, they don't want them to overdo it.
"I think they're smart enough to know that," Eason said. "We do talk about it. The main thing is when they get up Friday, get out and start doing a little bit so they won't be sluggish. Everybody's going to eat Thursday and take that nap during the Cowboys' game."
Padgett agreed with Eason.
"We always told them not to (overdo it), and hopefully they won't," Padgett said. "This is the biggest it gets for these kids if they lose. If they win this week, there's something bigger. They need to take advantage of the situation we are in."

LA Galaxy club President Chris Klein and AEG Chief Operating Officer Kelly Cheeseman were named to Sports Business Journal's Fourty Under 40 list earlier this week.
Klein, a 12 year MLS veteran, has served as the club's President since January of 2013 after spending time as the Galaxy's Academy Director and Vice President. During Klein's tenure, the 38-year-old club President has played a major role along with LA head coach and general manager Bruce Arena at locking Landon Donovan, Omar Gonzalez and Robbie Keane to extended deals.
Cheeseman, 37, has been with AEG since 2001 when he served as an Account Executive for the Los Angeles Kings. The AEG COO splits time between the Kings and the Galaxy, and works closely with Klein and the Galaxy front office.
The LA Galaxy are looking ahead to their CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal series against Club Tijuana and in the lead up to Tuesday's match, CONCACAF.com spoke to several members of the club on the upcoming tournament.
The video includes a few interesting and dramatic shots of StubHub Center as well as informative interviews so check it out below.
CARSON, Calif. -- Samuel just tries... stuff.
In his MLS debut, new LA Galaxy forward Samuel did not shrink under the pressure as the club's new Brazilian put in a strong debut going 77 minutes alongside LA captain Robbie Keane.
Where the Brazilian was particularly effective was in his ability to hold up the ball while also creating chances for himself -- like a 31st minute shot that forced one of RSL goalkeeper Nick Rimando's nine saves -- but one moment of flair stole the show. During the 33rd minute while attempting to escape RSL defender Aaron Maund, Samuel attempted to fire a rainbow kick over the defender that ultimately resulted in a Galaxy free kick.
Although his thoughts on the rainbow remain unknown, Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena was pleased with the Brazilian's debut performance.
"I thought Samuel had a real good game," said Arena following training on Monday. "He's still getting a feel for our team and the league, and the preseason was a period of adjustment, but I think that he's going to get better each game. You see the potential there."
Check out Samuel's audacious rainbow below.
CARSON, Calif. – Mexican teams have long ruled CONCACAF Champions League, but does that make Club Tijuana favorites against the LA Galaxy in this CCL Quarterfinals? Well, it's not that simple says Club Tijuana forward Herculez Gomez.
In an interview with LAGalaxy.com, Gomez, a former member of the Galaxy, was asked whether Mexican team's 45-19-14 all-time record against MLS teams made Xolos favorites, the U.S. international disagreed, instead stating that LA have the advantage over their Mexican opponents.
"Look if we're being honest, their salary cap, I don't even call it a Salary cap. Their player personnel on paper probably outspend ours. We know that it's going to be a test, but we're excited," Gomez told LAGalaxy.com. "We don't have that huge marquee international player coming in. But we've got guys who have worked and stuck to their guns, and made a career out of what they do. In a brief time, they've done a lot."
The response from his Galaxy opponents was pointed as they dismissed the claims of the U.S. international.
"It doesn't really matter, but I would say as a general statement that the team with the higher payroll is probably the team that's favored. All these Mexican teams pay their players a lot more money than we do as a whole," said Donovan. "That's something that we have to deal with, it's a disadvantage for us in a lot of ways, but we still compete well and still expect to give them a good series."
"I usually don't listen to anything that Herculez Gomez says. He is just full of hot air," said a smiling Omar Gonzalez. "They can feel whatever they want. I think that they're a really good team. We won't underestimate them. They have a lot of quality and a lot of players that don't want to lose to us. It's going to be an even match and our second game of the year, so I'm sure that it'll be a great game. There's a lot of respect there and I look forward to it."
Check out the video below.
CARSON, Calif. -- Contrary to the LA Galaxy, Club Tijuana will enter the CONCACAF Champions League Quarterfinal series on a winning note after dispatching C.D. Guadalajara 2-0 at Estadio Caliente on Friday evening.
Tijuana controlled much of the match from the early stages as Chivas struggled to generate much offense going forward. Argentine forward Dario Benedetto put the home side out in front after just 23rd minutes with an impressive right-footed screamer that blew past Guadalajara goalkeeper Jose Rodriguez. Benedetto was involved again in the 73rd minute when he found a waiting Jaime Ayovi for the final goal.
Club Tijuana will now travel to Southern California for their match against the Galaxy before taking on Cruz Azul in Mexico City next weekend.
Highlights from the match are below.
CARSON, Calif. – Jaime Penedo kept the LA Galaxy afloat, but ultimately, the Panamanian goalkeeper was unable to preserve the result for LA in their 1-0 defeat to Real Salt Lake.
Penedo made five saves on the evening including three highlight-reel stops in the first half, but was unable to keep Joao Plata's 80th minute game-winning goal. After spending much of the preseason correcting his positioning issues heading into his first full season in MLS, the Panamanian admits that there is still plenty of work to be done.
"I think that I work hard in order to be able to be ready for games like these," said Penedo. "Goals hurt me a lot and the goal that we allowed today is one that I will probably watch over and over again in order to see where I can improve. I think it was a quick play, and like I've always said, we'll be able to correct the mistakes so they won't happen again."
Although the loss was frustrating, Penedo believes that the Galaxy made a positive statement in their first match of the season.
"I think the team did well, a team with an ability to score a lot of goals. Today we couldn't score any but the important thing is that we are creating opportunities on goal," said Penedo. "I'd be very worried if given the type of players that we have and being a club like the Galaxy we aren't able to create scoring opportunities. Goals will come. In the back line, we'll have to continue to be concentrated and focused."
Two of the LA Galaxy's three supporters groups unveiled impressive tifo displays during the LA Galaxy's 1-0 defeat to Real Salt Lake.
Below is a timelapse video courtesy of LAGalaxy.com which shows the impressive effort from the Angel City Brigade. I, for one, am hoping for more like these in the future.
Check it out.
The LA Riot Squad also had a tifo unveiled prior to the match, which you can see below.

CARSON, Calif. -- The use of replacement officials was a major plot line heading into the first week of MLS action, but according to the LA Galaxy, they made little impact on their 1-0 defeat to Real Salt Lake.
Replacement head referee Javier Santos and his officiating crew called a total of 42 fouls during the match while also issuing five yellow card cautions. The most scrutinized calls came late in the second half when an RSL goal by Luke Mulholland was negated due to assistant referee Jose Da Silva signaling from an offside on the play. Santos made another key call in the dying moments of the match, when he signaled for a Galaxy penalty due to a foul by an RSL defender on LA forward Rob Friend that was ultimately saved by RSL's Nick Rimando.
Following the match, Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena labeled the officiating "pretty good" noting that he was pleased with the referee's performances in each of the matches that he observed on Saturday. He wasn't alone in that sentiment after the final whistle.
"I thought they actually did well to be honest with you," said Galaxy captain Robbie Keane. "The first half especially they did very well. In the second half, there were a few things here or there, which is to be expected. Overall, I thought it was pretty good."
However, Landon Donovan was quick to note that there were some differences from the usual way that MLS matches are officiated.
"I thought that they did a pretty good job, but the only difference is they don't understand our league and how it plays," said Donovan. "I thought there were too many fouls called. They should have let the game go more, but overall, it wasn't a bad job. However, we certainly hope that we get our refs back because we under estimate how good they've become and we want them back as soon as possible."
CARSON, Calif. – LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena's comments from the LA Galaxy's 1-0 defeat to Real Salt Lake on Saturday.
(On his general thoughts from the game…)
ARENA: "Obviously a disappointing result, but I thought that it was a good game between two good teams. They made the most of their opportunities but we had a couple of good chances as well. I think Rimando was outstanding and certainly saving the penalty in extra time was outstanding and the play of the game. We could have got a goal or two tonight, but I think that both teams played pretty well."
(On Samuel…)
ARENA: "Samuel had a good night, I thought. His first game in the league and I thought that he worked really hard. I was surprised that he went as long as he did and was as strong as he was on the evening. I'm encouraged by his effort."
(On James Riley's play…)
ARENA: "James played well. He's a good player; we discovered that early in camp. He's going to be a valuable member of our team this year."
(On whether the team wasted chances like they did in 2013…)
ARENA: "It was a 1-0 game. They had some good chances, but we did as well. We didn't finish any of our chances and with the penalty at the end of the game, what more can you say? Those are wasted chances. We should have gotten at least a point out of this game."
(On Penedo's play…)
ARENA: "Jaime played well. The two goalkeepers were outstanding tonight."
(On what the Galaxy did well…)
ARENA: "For the most part, we defended pretty well. At times, our passing was quick and sharp but at other times, it was not. In the first half… there were good chances and there was good ball movement and for the most part, the play was pretty solid. You could see at the end of the game that a couple of our players hit the wall and that we needed to have more energy."

In late October, New York City corrections officer Justin Burton, 35, brought one-year-old Pit mix Tori to NYC Animal Care & Control. Staff immediately noticed that Tori's collar was deeply embedded in his neck, leaving an excruciating wound. They called ASPCA Humane Law Enforcement right away.
Agents took Tori to the ASPCA Animal Hospital for evaluation and treatment. Our veterinarians found Tori to be in severe pain from the wound, which was estimated to be three weeks old and caused by an embedded collar. Tori was treated with pain medication and antibiotics, and he is continuing to recover at the hospital.
As for Burton, Agents arrested him on January 5. If convicted, he faces up to one year in jail and/or a $1,000 fine.
Watch this blog for updates on Tori. He's getting better every day, and when he's fully recovered, he'll be available for adoption!
Tori came to the ASPCA just over a month after Briana, another dog who suffered a painful wound caused by an embedded collar. Briana is available for adoption at the ASPCA Adoption Center.
If you suspect you've witnessed animal cruelty, please don't wait—report it. It saves lives.
It is bad enough animals are tortured and the abusers get a slap on the wrist. There is proof people who abuse animals will abuse people. If we can see what the abusers looks like, then we know we should stay away from these......individuals(for lack of a better word). They may also think twice if they do not wish to be exposed for the.....abusers they are. I would have no problem pointing them out to other people if I were to see them out in public.
I have a german shepherd and a yellow lab.I love them so much and would do anything for them.I don't understand why people do animal cruelty.It is NOT right and never will be.It IS against the law and cruel to do this.many think they'll get away with it but they will not.the ASPCA will soon find them.
I think she's adorable, I would love to adopt her. But I live in Colorado...Is she up for adoption or has Tori found a new home?
Please let me know! :)
These people have NO soul; It disgusts me to even think that someone would do that to a poor, innocent animal; these heartless idiots make me sick.People need to stop treating animals like this, and realize the truth.Animals are not toys, they are just as important as we are; and they need to be loved and cared for properly; they have feelings too, and it's sad that people don't even realize this.
How much money is Tori and is the ASPCA were he is in Kingston please let me know soonand is he for sale??? Please let me know soon ASAP
Also the crim is not good he should stay in jail for his rest of his life. Poor tori hope he's doing better and everthing is good. I hope the neck wound feels better and go's away soon. I hate to hear things bad about dogs even when there mean things specially the mean people that hurt the dogs and think they are cool and there not!!!:(:(:(

Gaston Day School played host to a political forum that featured candidates from local, state and congressional races Monday night.
The event ran from 5:15 to 9 p.m. and was broken into four different blocks of time. It was sponsored by The Gazette, Gaston Day School, the Gaston Regional Chamber of Commerce and the Gaston Jaycees.
Here's a look at some of the discussions that took place:
U.S.House of Representatives – 10th District
Patrick McHenry, a Republican, is seeking his fifth term in the 10th District of the U.S. House of Representatives. The redrawn district now includes all of Gaston County, as well as the more left-leaning Asheville region.
Patsy Keever, a Democrat, is a retired schoolteacher and N.C. House member who represents Buncombe County.
The two sparred over issues such as the health care mandate, the strategies of addressing the national debt, and how to replace the loss of regional manufacturing jobs.
Keever said the health care mandate should be retained and tweaked as necessary as congressional leaders learn what works about it and what doesn't.
"It has already done tremendous things to help people," she said. "It is a large piece of legislation, a work in progress and we need to monitor it as it goes along."
McHenry said he'd prefer to start from scratch.
"Obamacare is adding to the greater uncertainty of providing health care," he said. "It's a travesty. I think we need to repeal it, lock stock and barrel, and replace it with something that makes sense."
McHenry questioned Keever about her former vote on a N.C. House bill that dealt with convicted sex offenders being hired as paramedics. He said her vote in support of those hires, and other votes to raise taxes many times in her history, was proof that she is "too liberal" for the seat she is seeking.
"I can't understand how you'd try to carry that record in this conservative district," he said.
Keever explained that her vote on that sex offender measure was a political statement about the problems she sees in the registry as it now exists.
"The whole point was we need to take a look at our sex offender registry," she said. "As a teacher, mother and grandmother, I am the first one who wants to protect our kids. But that was clearly a protest vote."
Keever questioned McHenry about his position on the congressional committee charged with regulating banks, despite the fact that he has received more than $400,000 in political action committee money from banks and similar organizations. McHenry said it has not influenced his votes, and he pointed out that he voted against the federal bailout, which financial institutions most wanted to see pass.
"I voted against the bailout because I thought it was the wrong approach," he said.
Keever was unconvinced.
"I see things through the eyes of my constituents, and it's all about putting people first, not corporations," she said.
Gaston County Board of Education
Twelve candidates for the Gaston County Board of Education participated in the forum, sitting tightly shoulder to shoulder on the auditorium stage.
At-large candidates include Rachelle Anger, Donyel Barber, Dot Cherry-Accurso, Chris Howell, Josh Helms and Jeff Ramsey. Also present were James Davison, Nick Huffman and Kenny Lutz from Crowders Mountain Township; and Jerry Bostic, Alfred Current and Dot Guthrie from Gastonia Township.
At one point, the candidates were asked about the school board's decision earlier this year to not close three aging schools. A firm hired to review the issue had recommended closing them due to escalating maintenance costs and other factors. But school leaders were hesitant about harming the communities where the schools are located.
Several said they weren't familiar enough with the discussion to say what they would have done. Several incumbents defended their decision to keep the schools open.
Huffman and Helms said they would've closed the schools.
"I definitely would've voted to close them and I would've stayed with that decision if I had been on the board," Huffman said.
Current said he and the other school board members made the right decision.
"We can't touch a single school without touching the culture of a town or community," he said. "I stand by the decision that we made that night."
Each candidate also offered their views on the concept of paying public school teachers based on the academic performance of their students. Opinions ranged in either direction.
"I'd like to see an adequate base salary first," said Cherry-Accurso. "I think our teachers are underpaid."
Howell agreed, with a caveat.
"Yes, if there was an adequate measure for performance," he said. "It's the measuring stick by which we measure the teaching performance that I struggle with."
Bostic said it's not a logical approach.
"I am not in favor of merit pay simply because we have to work together as a family, as a team," he said.
Gaston County Board of Commissioners
Four seats on the Gaston County Board of Commissioners will be up for grabs in next month's election. Two, in Cherryville and Gastonia townships, involve candidates who are running unopposed.
The four candidates challenging one another for the other two seats took part in Monday's forum. Incumbent Mickey Price will face Tony Duran in South Point Township, while incumbent Joe Carpenter will face Jim Long in Crowders Mountain Township.
County commissioners currently set the property tax rate, and help to fund public schools with the revenue that produces. Candidates were asked whether they would support giving school boards taxing authority that would remove their involvement in decisions about education.
Duran said he is in favor of that, though a system of checks and balances need to be maintained.
"In principle, I understand it and I support it," he said.
Price said he would be willing to look at any proposed plan, but not without a lot of thought.
"To just create another bureaucratic entity that could tax people?" he said. "I don't think so."
Long said it has pros and cons.
"It would certainly take pressure off the county commissioners and make the school board more accountable for their actions," he said.
Carpenter echoed Price's concerns, and said he would support the new taxing authority, "if somebody could come up with a good plan for implementing it."
Asked about their views on the Garden Parkway, a proposed toll road through Gaston County, Duran said he would support it as a free route.
"I'm opposed to it in its current form," he said. "I'd like to see a road through there that connects to Charlotte-Douglas (International Airport). But let's not make it a toll road."
Price said he likes the idea of the state investing nearly $1 billion for construction of the road in Gaston County.
"If not, I would hope a bridge (over the Catawba River) could still be built to support another connection to Mecklenburg County," he said. He added that would also have to be accompanied by plans to widen South Point, New Hope and Union roads.
Long and Carpenter are both adamant supporters of the parkway.
N.C. House of Representatives
Four state legislative candidates took part in the forum.
Republican Kelly Hastings is seeking re-election in the 110th District, with competition from Democrat Jamar McKoy. In the 109th District, Republican Dana Bumgardner faces opposition from Democrat Dodie Reese.
Sen. Kathy Harrington and Rep. John Torbett, both Republicans representing Gaston County, are incumbents who have no opposition.
The candidates were asked whether they would be in favor of having Gaston County implement something like the Pennies for Progress program used in South Carolina. It allows a portion of sales tax revenue in a county to be put toward road improvement projects, theoretically speeding-up needed road widenings and other work.
Bumgardner said he would not.
"It's another tax," he said.
Reese and McKoy said they would only support it if voters approved the concept through a referendum.
"I just don't think it would be right for us to say 'you must do this,'" Reese said.
Hastings also said he's not in favor.
"As I've said before, one of my main goals is to cut taxes, not raise taxes," he said.
Asked to weigh-in on the federal health care mandate, and how they would help businesses deal with the coming changes, the candidates varied in their responses.
Reese said she supports the measure, despite the concerns many have about its burden on business owners.
"I think it's important for the people of the county and state," she said.
Bumgardner said it's a bad idea.
"This act, I think, is the beginning of the end of America," he said. "If we don't get a hold on spending in the medical field, it's going to destroy all of us."
McKoy believes the health care act's positives outweigh the negatives.
"I support the president in his endeavor to make health care affordable for all citizens."
Hastings said "Obamacare" has positives, such as allowing children to be covered by their parents' health insurance plans until 26. But they should be approved provisionally.
"They shouldn't be thrown in with the poison pill of the largest tax increase in American history," he said.

Iran Permits Brothels Through Temporary Marriages
Iranian authorities have allocated funds for prostitution houses under the guise of temporary marriage, Al-Osboa has reported. According to the report, the government of Iran has granted one-day, temporary marriages in certain neighborhoods to "eliminate the problem of rape and sexual repression suffered by the Iranian youth."
Under the terms of the license, it would be legal for any Iranian or foreigner frequenting a designated house to have sex with a girl if she agrees to temporarily marry him. In Iran, sex outside of marriage is a crime, in some cases punishable with up to one hundred lashes, or in the case of adultery, the death sentence. When a temporary marriage is instituted in Shia Islam, a man and woman contract a mut'a for a limited period of time and for a specific amount of money that the man must pay to the woman.
According to the official announcement in the cities of Qom and Mashad, the price per night is between twenty and fifty dollars, depending on whether the girl is a virgin or not in addition to her beauty. Critics, however, have said that this is just an excuse to bypass restrictions on prostitution. According to the Kuwait Times, the "homes have become a breeding to the whims and desires of some officials and Shiite clerics."
Top Headlines
yup, love it!!
Though I am not interested at all, as an option to those who desire, it is available to their religious followers. It is not forced to anyone. So, I personally respect the lawful option. However, there are much more important things in life to enjoy thank sex. Although sex is a joyful part of life with the loved partner, one should educate himself / herself to be satisfied with the only committed partner. Sex sould be considered as a an undistinguished part of love making with the only committed human being who share everything in life. It is not fair to abuse and disrespect your body and someone elses body only for sex. You can be much more productive in this world than pouring a few drops of lust! We should think about how to contribute to this suffering earth and its population!
Kind regards,
OMG....so a pimp is just a lower form of a mut'a..well well well. All those hypocrits.
This should be verified by QURAN & ISLAM........it is not supported by ISLAM....everyone should know this....
It brings shame on the beautiful religion of Allah. I had always believed that the Shia are not muslims
But what about arranged marriages in India and Pakistan? those are worse ads the whole family is involved, at least with this, you are only doing it in private instead of using your family's wealth on a pseudo whore....
how disgusting!!! im certain the quran does not say this and to accept money for sex? omg all i can say is for those o have faith and real faith, god is seeing all we do and for those who know of the religion and are not faithful to it well they shall be judged more severly. what a shame how evil has penetrated through people in the name of religion!! all i can say is shame on all parties involved in this pathetic excuse to carry out prostitution!
i am asure this is the work of some jewish master mind, they want to make fool of the great iranian people. this is the weatern media who publish such type of nonsence for the sick people.
Now this is the place to work!!! 50 bucks for a night with a virgin, then afterwards only 20-30 a night! Cheaper than a wife thats for sure and the variety would be wonderful!!
To preform a Mut'a marriage is a very strenuous process that can only be completed after several steps have taken place and passed. For Iran to just allow Mut'a between a man and a prostitute is unacceptable under Ja'fari madhab. One of the preconditions is that the woman MUST be a woman of purity, she CANNOT be a prostitute.
I don't believe this story, I've searched every Irani, Islamic and Shi'i website and have not found anything that can corroborate this story. This is nothing more than an attack on Iran, but more importantly a propaganda campaign against our Shi'i Brothers to stir fitnah.
Iran is Islamic country. Shame on you, you don't know. hahaha
At least in Iran they are honest.
Worse is in Israel,where,they have sex slaves youngs as 8 years old.
Women from other countries are sold in Israel,like piece of meat.
At least hear in Brazil,we paid the fair share.
Check Brazilian integralist party
Google me Plinio Salgado.
Brazil supports the friend country of Iran.
what a shame !
everybody to know that Iran is not Islamic country.
this makes me very happy. it is about time someone does that. it is a great idea.

Just returned from a 3-day backcountry ski trip using these bibs. As another reviewer stated, the front zipper fell down but it didn't affect the fit or usability. I bought these because my backpack hip belt always sits on top of the waistband of my ski pants and pushes them down, leaving my hip bone area sore and red from the bulkiness at that point. This was the first time in years that my hips were pain-free because the hip area in these pants is free of seams, belt loops, pockets, zippers or other bulky things that tend to rub. The drop seat worked great, there are lots of options for venting, the pants stretch where needed and the pockets are large enough to hold maps, snacks, gps, etc. I am a woman who normally wears a ladies size small. Bought the men's size small so lots of room for layering underneath. They are not especially flattering but they WORK.
I spent a week skiing in the Alps with these. They have a great fit and the Dry.Q Elite worked as well as Gore-tex keeping me dry. The Stretch fabric seems very durable yet gave a little which helped my mobility.The only bad thing is the Two-way center-front zipper on the half bib would not stay up. There was no locking mechanism to this small zipper and it fell down to the two buttons at the belt every time I started skiing. I don't think this is a defective zipper, I think it is an untested design element. This should not be a reason to not buy these pants, but at the price point I expected more.

Has the day of redemption come?
Some fear that the Earth will meet its end Friday, because the long-term Mayan calendar ends on Dec. 21, 2012, according to some modern-day interpretations.
But ancient Mayan documents and religious books are not so easily deciphered, according to Troy Feay, assistant professor of history at Belmont Abbey College.
"Even for the Mayans, knowing how to interpret these books was a lifelong conquest. They were not supposed to have a fixed meaning. The way you interpret it depends on a certain time and place," Feay said in a previous interview with The Gazette .
Conspiracy theorists have grasped the 2012 doomsday theory for years. All the hype prompted NASA to publish a press release on the topic.
"The story started with claims that Nibiru, a supposed planet discovered by the Sumerians, is headed toward Earth. This catastrophe was initially predicted for May 2003, but when nothing happened the doomsday date was moved forward to December 2012. Then these two fables were linked to the end of one of the cycles in the ancient Mayan calendar at the winter solstice in 2012 — hence the predicted doomsday date of Dec. 21, 2012," according to the NASA release.
But just because the calendar ends, doesn't mean the world will also cease to exist, Feay said.
"The Mayans probably saw that long-term calendar as repeating," he said.
In another press release, NASA said there are no meteors or neighboring planets traveling on a path of destruction toward the Earth. The last time such an event happened was billions of years ago, leading to the extinction of dinosaurs, according to the release.
Dispelling rumors
NASA posted on its website a fact sheet to dispel some rumors about the iconic date, 12/21/12.
- The ancient Maya did not predict the end of the world or any disaster in December 2012. Such doomsday predictions are a modern hoax.
- For the past decade there have been reports of a rogue object that will collide with Earth in December 2012. These claims are not true. If such a threat existed, it would be one of the brightest objects in the sky, and astronomers would have been tracking it for years.
- The planet is behaving normally in 2012. There has been no increase in earthquakes or volcanic eruptions. There has been an increase in extreme weather, including both droughts and floods, which many scientists attribute at least partly to global warming, but this has nothing to do with a 2012 doomsday.
- The Earth, according to NASA, has been here for more than 4 billion years and it will be several more billion years before the gradual brightening of the sun makes the planet unlivable. Meanwhile there is no known astronomical or geological threat that could destroy the Earth.
Making fun
By Thursday afternoon, some non-believers posted on Facebook that since it was already Dec. 21 in Australia, the world must be safe.
One in 10 Americans has some concern about the apocalyptic prediction, according to NASA, but others seize the opportunity to party and poke fun.
Some local bars and restaurants planned "End of the World" themes for patrons, offering food and drink specials mocking the belief in the end of the world.
Facebookers jokingly posted that any believers could drop their belongings off at their house before the world bursts into flames.
How would you spend your last day?
The Gazette asked its readers on Facebook what they would do if they knew this was their last day on Earth. Here were some of the responses:
Carl Twist Wallen: Grab my wife and youngest son and fly to Texas where my oldest son is stationed in the Air Force. And just spend it together.
Cyndi Lail: Spend it with my family!
Sean Moore: Get right with the Lord!!!
Ricky David Robinson: I would spend the day letting the one I love know how much I LOVE THEM.
Jamie Mayberry: Ask for forgiveness from everybody that I know I've done wrong to, make sure my family and friends know I love them and thank them for all they've done for me.
Sonja Forrester: I would drive to the coast of North Carolina with my wonderful family and spend the day marveling at the beauty we all enjoyed, together.
Bradley Champion: Spend it with my wife and kids till the end and tell them that it's going to be OK, and we are going to a better place to be with all the ones we have lost down the road in our lives and loved.
Beth Kennedy Ledford: Pray and ask forgiveness for all my sins.

I agree turrible loss / game but no worse then any other loss. Stings (get it? derp) a lil more cause they havent won a road game all year and we started pretty strong. oh well, tomorrow's game will be better right?
No. I'm with the Vasquez to the bench or at least not having the freaking ball in his hands at the end of games as much. But that it happened to the Wizards is somehow unacceptable and people are talking about being embarrassed and the like. Its being overblown.
I agree turrible loss / game but no worse then any other loss. Stings (get it? derp) a lil more cause they havent won a road game all year and we started pretty strong. oh well, tomorrow's game will be better right?
While watching this game It just looked like the hornets were just playing lackadaisical and sloppy and just seemed to act if this was going to be an easy win. The Wizards SUCK but aren't we like the worst team in the west?
R.I.P. to HunnyB/FlyGirl
my mother used to tell me that if I didn't have something nice to say,
"we might make dollars, but we don't necessarily make sense"
"always be sincere....whether you mean it or not"
trying to ease my rage by using espn trade machine on vasquez.
I don't get Monty sometimes. X has been playing well. Sooo we take him out completely and play mason a bunch. I don't understand.
Aminu shrinks the floor soo much. He isn't a threat to ever shoot a jumper.
Vasq was aweful and terrible tonight.
And jeez Roberts is not a good pg. he is a sg. Too selfish.
Good, the more ping pong balls we get, the better.
I am this close to being done with Aminu.
Vasquez shouldn't even be on the floor during crunch time like that anyway. We'll see what develops.
On a positive note, Rivers played a great game. What makes me even happier is that he did it from the SG position with Vasquez hogging the ball all game. When Rivers did have the ball in his hands, however, he made plays. I can definitely get used to seeing him toss a few lobs to Davis every game. That was a thing of beauty!

Anthony Davis: "I feel good. I wish there were another quarter (to play). I could've kept playing. I'm just happy to be back."
In recent years, the Hornets seemed to forget how to play in the 3rd quarter. That's pretty bad, but forgetting in the 4th is even worse. 10 points...against the Wizards....ugh.
With purple and pinstripes from days gone by, I trumpet Hugo's name to the NOLA sky. When rebranders and posers abuse their might, beware my power, TEAL LANTERN'S LIGHT!
Charlotte Slobcats All-Time Records (11 Total Seasons)-- 50-win seasons:0, losing seasons:9, playoff series wins:0, division titles: 0, identity theft: 1.
It's important to never get to high or low. It sucks that we lost, but there is a lot to learn from and be happy with from this game.
In the fourth quarter, it almost seemed like there was a lid on the rim. Plenty of good looks that should have gone in but didn't.

I mean, if we were a team on the verge, legitimate 4-6 seeds and we drop games like this, I'd be more upset. But this is a work in progress. Hell, there's a part of me that DOES hope we don't...I won't give voice to that part of me actually. But I'm not stressing so much.
And yeah Aminu's gonna Aminu. The only problem with Darius Miller is he fouls too much. Otherwise, I say he should start.
How about this trade idea... Vasquez to Minny for Derrick Williams.
Jim Eichenhofer @Jim_Eichenhofer
A.Davis: "Any loss is disappointing, especially when we had a 13-point lead. You want to stomp on a team's neck and get it up to 20 or 30."

Or it could be that he's playing too heavy.

It must suck to be a Wizards fan. Everyone dumping bad contracts on you. No signs of progress. Maybe the playoffs every half decade or more. Tough times indeed.
