The ASPCA is excited to announce the launch of a new farm animal campaign focusing on the plight of chickens raised for meat (often called "broiler" chickens). Roughly 8.5 billion chickens are raised in the U.S. annually, most on squalid factory farms where there is no government oversight of their treatment.
The issue is not just the treatment of chickens, though: it's that modern chickens are selectively bred to grow so large, so fast, that they struggle to simply move or stand.
Today's chickens are bred to have such massive and disproportionate bodies that they often collapse and spend most of their lives lying helplessly in their own waste. Many have open wounds, which act as gateways to infections that can be passed on to people. Don't be fooled: Most chickens who wind up on American dinner plates bear no resemblance to the healthy-looking, active birds you may have been led to expect.
The ASPCA is calling on the chicken industry to do better—but to make sure they're paying attention, we need to show them that people like you care about how chickens are raised, too.
Visit TruthAboutChicken.org to learn more, then add your voice to the chorus of concerned Americans asking the chicken industry to change its inhumane practices.
By insisting on slower-growing chickens and better conditions, we can reduce suffering and raise healthier birds who may be less likely to spread dangerous infections like salmonella. But to get the chicken industry to move in the right direction, they need to see that people like you are paying attention—and counting on the industry to do what's right for chickens and consumers.
We need you on our side: Please tell the chicken industry it's time for slower-growing chickens raised in safer, more humane conditions. Speak out today by adding your name to our Truth About Chicken petition.
you've only seen evidence from a handful of companies, most all those videos are of the same farms and companies. I have been to many farms and chickens are not raised in cages in any of them and electric prods are illegal in most places, our chickens and cows are so used to and unafraid of people that some will even attack any new comer cause they have no idea what true fear is and have never been intentionally harmed even when they deserve or need it cause you literally can't get them to move where they need to be or out of your way so you can fix something to keep them comfortable and safe... if they were in the natural wild acting like that would get them killed, they really are stupid little things.
These animals should still be treated humanely and have decent lifecycles.
May everyone read further down to a few knowledgeable responses regarding chickens. Did you know there are hundreds of breeds of chickens that come in all sizes and lay all sizes & color of eggs? There are missing facts in this report but would love to see names & where these things are happening. Don't support anything or anyone without facts that can be verified or you'd be the blind sheep following a goat who just wants your field of grass. Think about the facts the report states to support the cause. Good fact based causes are important but misinformation without fact is spread too easily these days. Read more comments before you believe...ok?
Excellent point. It is the greed and excess production that is at fault. "All things in moderation" should be our rule of life. And that includes eating.
Humans are not true carnivores. Humans also have eaten each other, and there is quite a long history of this. I suggest that if eating flesh is so important, eat human flesh, and eat it raw--like a real carnivore.
Huh? That does not sound like a realistic solution. Your leader, Jeffrey Dahmer, just sent me a message from the grave...."Don't bring me in to this..."
wow that was the most ignorant thing I've read on here, man has been eating flesh since b4 the missing link. do you know how hamburger was originally made and ate? it was the meat scraped off the skin after cleaning the animal and it was ate raw... that's what your appendix was originally for but after thousands of years of cooking our food we evolved to not use it, but u can still eat small amounts of raw red meat and digest it fine, and if it wasn't for all the toxins and unnatural things we consume people would be good eating, I invite you to my place and we'll remove your thigh muscle and make a pot roast, ok, sound good to you? it does me, I got no problem eating people if I had to too survive but people aren't going to let you eat them and well some animals won't fight that's why we eat them and not dogs or horses... O and here's a fun fact, humans like our primate cousins do not mate for life, its unnatural. but we fight it and try anyway, so does this mean we should give in to instinct and screw like rabbits with anyone we feel the desire? apes have orgy's to release tension and make stronger bonds in the herd, and so did people until religion came along, so can we go back to that way of thinking? I'm game but I doubt you or the rest of the world is... I think animals whether raised for food or not have it good, as long as they get food water and fresh air without being abused all they got to do is hump, eat, drink, sleep, and shit without worry and all as they have the urge too... Hell wish my life was that easy
Than you should also know Eric that at least animals that hunt other animals do so in the wild. The hunted are free and at least have a chance to escape, it evens the odds don't you think? Humans can live without meat but not without vegetables so what do you say about that. Protein can be gotten from many sources not just meat so don't even go there! It's usually men who do most of the slaughtering so I'm assuming you have slit a few throats? Mmmm, how did that meat taste Eric?
all animals can go without meat, and actually I can live without vegetables; insects, dirt, and some sea creatures can provide everything you need to live, but dirt tastes bad and so do most insects. does this mean we should stop animals from eating eachother too? and almost all animals hunt in packs and/or go after the weakest slowest of the prey, its never a fair fight. And I like most people eat meat cause it tastes good and that's what being on the top of the food chain is all about. eating cause you can and it tastes good, even animals prefer taste to bland, that's why bears eat honey and most dogs won't eat vegetables cause taste... I mean sperm is good for you but you won't catch me putting it in my mouth and just a guess but prolly not yours either! look it up, it can actually nutritionally sustain you for a long time and wouldn't harm anyone to milk it, but you don't see any cock farms do you? Stop thinking so much and enjoy life, cause it could end short with you on the menu for all kinds of creatures, its not quantity its quality otherwise nothing would be fun or tasteful. And I can say with certainty that my birds have the best quality I can provide for their life short lived as it may be they have it good

MILEY CYRUS says it was easier to be naked during the making of her "Wrecking Ball" video than it was to cry . . . because she feels more vulnerable crying. She also says the sledgehammer-licking just sort of happened because the director told her to, quote, "look like you're in love with it."
In a radio interview yesterday, KANYE WEST said there will be FIGHTER JETS at his wedding. He also said he and KIM KARDASHIAN haven't decided whether to televise it. But if they do he says, quote, "I would take as much as possible . . . because you know me and Kim are in the exploitation business. We get paid to exploit ourselves."
DR. CONRAD MURRAY was released from prison at 12:01 A.M. yesterday morning, after serving two years of a four-year sentence. His attorney said he was, quote, "elated" to be out. And his first stop was IN-N-OUT BURGER. He rolled in just before 1:00 A.M.
In his new autobiography, "Undisputed Truth", MIKE TYSON talks about how BRAD PITT once begged him not to beat his ass. It happened about a quarter-century ago, when Brad was messing around with Tyson's ex, ROBIN GIVENS. Tyson showed up at Robin's house, and Brad was already there. He claims Brad pleaded with him, saying, quote, "Dude, don't strike me."
CHRIS BROWN was released from a D.C. prison yesterday, after spending the night in lockup for allegedly punching a man. Brown's felony assault charge was reduced to a misdemeanor, and he pleaded not guilty. So did a bodyguard who was also arrested for hitting the guy.

OLIVIA WILDE and JASON SUDEIKIS are expecting their first child. A source says, quote, "They are incredibly happy. They're very excited to welcome a new member into their family."
Just because JUSTIN BIEBER is in between girlfriends, that doesn't mean he's not getting any. A Panamanian prostitute told a local newspaper that Justin sampled her talents in Panama City earlier this month.
Last week I told you ORLANDO BLOOM and MIRANDA KERR have split up after three years of marriage. Now, there are rumors that Miranda's obsession with JUSTIN BIEBER may have had something to do with it. They met at a party last year and spent HOURS together. Orlando wasn't happy.
CHRIS BROWN was arrested yesterday in Washington, D.C. for allegedly punching a guy in the face after he tried to photobomb a picture Chris was taking with two female fans. Chris reportedly said, quote, "I'm not into this gay [crap]. I'm into boxing." Then he popped the guy in the face, and so did his bodyguard.
At least three US publishers are locked in a battle for the rights to Angelina Jolie's autobiography, with at least $48 million already on the table. A publishing insider confirmed, "Whoever gets her will be sitting on a gold mine. Her book is guaranteed to top the bestseller lists in virtually every country on the planet and even an advance of that size would be recouped within weeks." Angelina says she's ready to tell everything, and believes that "the time is now right."

MARY MCCORMACK kicked her husband out of their house on Sunday after she found out he was messing around with KATHARINE MCPHEE. Michael Morris knew the photos were being shopped around, and he actually tried to buy them himself. But he was outbid by TMZ. So he fessed up to Mary, and she sent him packing. Katharine has been separated from her husband for six months, but a source says she's still, quote, "SO embarrassed she was caught" messing around with Morris.
PAULY D'S baby-mama claims she has texts from Pauly in which he tried to get her to abort the baby that was conceived during their Vegas fling. But yesterday Pauly said, quote, "Sometimes in life things aren't planned and they may even scare you at first, but they end up being a blessing."
ROBIN THICKE shared some advice he once got from his father, sitcom legend ALAN THICKE. Robin was staring at a pretty girl, and Alan told him, quote, "What if there's a prettier girl sitting two tables away? Now she's not going to feel special."
BRAD PITT has reportedly been STINKING lately, because he's given up using soap. He feels that it's full of toxins and it's both bad for the planet and speeds up the aging process. Instead he uses, quote, "a homemade concoction of lemons, water and apple cider vinegar."
Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr are over as husband and wife. The couple has split after three years of marriage. A rep for Bloom said. "In a joint statement, Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr have announced that they have been amicably separated for the past few months. After six years together, they have recently decided to formalize their separation." The two began dating in 2007 and were married in July 2010. Kerr gave birth to their son, Flynn, on Jan. 6, 2011.
10/24/13 Is Lilo Drinking Again?

Thursday, October 24, 2013
KIM KARDASHIAN reportedly KNEW KANYE WEST was going to propose, and she even told him what jeweler to go to for her ring. Kanye supposedly designed the 15-carat ring . . . but Kim told him to use Lorraine Schwartz, the same jeweler who made the ring KRIS HUMPHRIES gave her.
This probably doesn't make a difference since they both have more money than they know what to do with, but KANYE WEST reportedly won't make KIM KARDASHIAN sign a prenup. A source says, quote, "Kanye's in love with Kim to the point of infatuation . . . he thinks [a prenup is] tacky and he doesn't want to offend Kim or make anything seem awkward. He thinks of his money and his accomplishments and hers and he wants to share them with her . . . no strings attached."
CLINT EASTWOOD'S wife DINA officially filed for divorce this week. As you may recall, she had previously WITHDRAWN her papers for legal separation. There's no word what changed her mind . . . all she'll give for a reason is "irreconcilable differences." Dina is seeking physical custody of their 16-year-old daughter Morgan, plus spousal support and attorney fees. Meanwhile, Clint's latest fling, Erica Fisher, is reportedly living with him . . . and driving his Benz. And one of her sons is working as a production assistant on Clint's latest movie. Erica's ex-husband is a longtime friend of Dina's.
Is LINDSAY LOHAN still drinking? The paparazzi shot a picture of Lindsay through the window of a Hollywood Hills home . . . and it looks like she's reaching for a WINE BOTTLE. The picture was taken Tuesday night. Sources say Lindsay has ditched her sober coach, saying she can go it alone from here on out.
DINA LOHAN was in court yesterday for a hearing regarding her DUI. Outside the courthouse, her slimy attorney Mark Heller told reporters THEY caused Dina to drive drunk. He said, quote, "The circumstances leading to Dina's arrest were largely impacted by ongoing daily stresses caused by you folks, the paparazzi, media attention and distorted tabloid character profiles."

More details about the Kim Kardashian and Kanye West engagement. Kanye spent $35,000 to rent out the stadium . . . and a reported $1.25 million on the ring. One member of the orchestra told TMZ she was paid four times her usual rate for the gig . . . and nobody knew about it until two days beforehand. She also said CAMERAS WERE ROLLING . . . so we can probably expect to see this on an upcoming episode of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians". Sources do say, though, that Kanye has final approval on what ends up on the show and what doesn't.
If this doesn't make for the PERFECT METAPHOR, then nothing does: During a report on KIM KARDASHIAN and KANYE WEST'S engagement, MSNBC accidentally cut to the wrong footage. Instead of a video package on Kim and Kanye, they showed surveillance video of a guy accidentally walking off a subway platform and falling onto the tracks. The caption at the bottom read, "Kimye Engaged."
Former "American Idol" contestant KATHERINE MCPHEE was photographed making out with Michael Morris . . . who directed her TV show "Smash". And both of them are married to OTHER PEOPLE. Morris' wife is MARY MCCORMACK and they have three daughters, ages 2, 6 and 9. Katherine is married to a guy named Nick Cokas. They have no kids. Since all of this happened IN PLAIN SIGHT . . . pun intended . . . it may not be a KRISTEN STEWART-type situation. Sources say Katherine and Nick have been separated for six months. There's no word on the status of Michael and Mary's relationship.
PAULY D from "Jersey Shore" is a dad. He has a 5-month-old daughter named Amabella. She's the result of a VEGAS HOOKUP last fall, but it's legit. Pauly took a DNA test and everything.
During the Hollywood Film Awards on Monday night, SEAN PENN introduced honoree JULIA ROBERTS with a bizarre, rambling speech in which he talked about how sexy it is to watch her eat, and how he'd love to see a 3D movie of her eating, while he sat in the audience with a virtual toothpick. He might have been a little drunk.

As the largest organ in the body and the most vulnerable to harmful exposure, the skin is subject to disease and imperfections, and also serves as an indicator of systemic disease within the body.
The diagnosis and treatment of skin conditions and their relationship to the rest of the body is a highly skilled specialty involving years of experience on behalf of the dermatologist. Dermatology requires the physician to be both a general physician with extensive knowledge of all organ systems and a specialized physician with particular knowledge of skin problems and treatments.
Warts can be treated in many ways ranging from "acid" plasters and drops, to liquid nitrogen and even surgery in some instances. The pulsed dye laser has been effective in removing warts, especially those which have not responded to these other more conventional treatments. This laser, unlike its predecessors, does not break the skin thus minimizing pain, the risk of infection, as well as scar formation during the healing process.
Telangiectasia/Broken Capillaries
These are enlarged blood vessels that are often accompanied by surrounding blotchy redness of the skin. Broken capillaries are caused by a variety of factors, the most common being over-exposure to the sun. Vascular-specific lasers can easily remove the majority of these vessels.
An angioma, also known as "spider angioma," "cherry angioma," or "senile angioma," is a benign tumor consisting of small blood vessels in the skin. They can occur anywhere on the body in individuals of any age.These respond well to laser treatment(s).
Laser Hair Removal
Hair can be successfully removed using lasers. The laser beam, a concentrated beam of light energy, passes through the skin to the hair follicle where it is absorbed as heat, damaging the follicle. There are several types of lasers being used to remove hair. The type of laser used and response of the treatments depends on a patients' skin and hair color combination.
Pigmented Lesions
Pigmented lesions, sometimes called moles, result from increased brown pigmentation (melanin) in the skin, and often appear later in life. Because these lesions are potentially malignant, it is important that all pigmented lesions be examined by a dermatologist. Some pigmented lesions can be removed by laser.
Lentigines/Liver Spots
Lentigines are commonly found on the face and exposed parts of the body in fair skinned individuals. They tend to increase in number and color with sun exposure later in life. Liver spots, commonly found on the face, back of hands and forearms have responded well to laser treatments.

+ - Ron Paul's 89 seconds of fame
Submitted by mayberry42
mayberry42 writes: It's no secret how Ron Paul has been having a severe lack of news coverage; far less than most, if not all, of his fellow GOP candidates. However, things have turned to almost bizarre levels when the past few debates have almost entirely excluded him, at one point granting him 90 seconds to speak — in an 80 minute debate. Still, he seems to be doing pretty well in Iowa.

Country Boy Rolling Stone Releases new album
OXFORD TOWN – That's W.S. "Fluke Holland to the left. Holland was Johnny Cash's longtime drummer and one of the original Tennessee Three. He, along with several Oxford Musicians, recently recorded a new album with Country Boy Rolling Stone entitled "Honky Tonking Too Long." The project, inspired by the late Jim Dickinson and formed by Grenada resident Bill Crowder, has ties and sounds reminiscent of Cash. Page 5 in this week's issue of Oxford Town has Jeff McVay's coverage of the very cool new CD that's loaded and top-heavy with Oxford musicians and legends. (September 2, 2010, Page 5)

Buyer's Guide:
What is the difference between a freestanding and an under counter unit?
A freestanding unit is designed to stand alone while an under counter (also called a zero clearance or built-in) unit may be built into existing counters and cabinetry as they include a front vent located under the door that will channel heat forward away from the unit.
What would happen if I installed a freestanding cooler under my counter?
Since a freestanding unit does not include a front vent the heat produced by the unit during operation will remain within the built-in enclosure and eventually overheat the unit. This overheating will in turn noticeably decrease the coolers ability to maintain its internal temperature and cool your wine. The unit's compressor will attempt to overcompensate for the overheating unit and may eventually burn itself out. At the very least you run the risk of shortening the coolers overall lifespan as the compressor is continually overworked. You also run the risk of invalidating the manufacturer's warranty by operating a freestanding unit in a built-in space.
Are there any options that will allow me to install a freestanding unit under my counter?
Yes, if you allow sufficient space around the unit for the heat produced during operation to properly dissipate you will be able to install a freestanding unit into a built-in space. We strongly suggest leaving a gap of 2 to 3 inches on each side of the cooler as well as on top and in the back to create the needed airflow around the unit. You will not be able to achieve a true built-in appearance with these gaps but this should allow you to utilize a freestanding unit within a built-in space.
What exactly is thermoelectric cooling?
Many smaller wine coolers employ thermoelectric cooling instead of utilizing a traditional compressor and refrigerant. A thermoelectric wine cooler will contain what is referred to as a cooling node which is simply a ceramic tile that has electrical current passed through it. As the electrical current is passed through the cooling node the outside of the tile will heat up and the other side (the side facing into the cooler) will cool down. Typically, a thermoelectric wine cooler will contain small fans inside the unit which help to evenly distribute the cool temperatures being created by the node throughout the interior of the unit. Due to the lack of a compressor, thermoelectric coolers will produce fewer vibrations which in turn will equal fewer disturbances of the sediments within the wine bottles. Please keep in mind that thermoelectric wine coolers are not completely silent as the internal fans needed to distribute the cold air within the cooler will produce some noise. Overall, they are usually quieter than compressor driven models.
What is the best way to store white and red wines in the same cooler?
Typically, white wines should be stored in the temperature range of 46ºF to 56ºF and red wines will be stored between 58ºF to 68ºF. The best way to accommodate both wines within the same unit is to purchase a dual zone wine cooler. A dual zone cooler will allow you to maintain two distinct and separate temperature zones within the same cooler. Many times a dual zone unit will offer a larger storage capacity for one style of wine over the other so be sure to purchase the unit that best suits your individual drinking preference. You may of course store both red and white wines together in a single zone unit. By placing your red wines in the top shelves of the unit you will be storing them in the warmest section of the cooler. There is usually only a 5 to 8 degree temperature difference between the top of a single zone wine cooler and the bottom so ultimately either your red wines will be too cold or your whites too warm depending on how you choose to set the master thermostat of the unit.
May I use a wine cooler to store my other beverages?
The average wine cooler will not offer temperatures below 46ºF degrees. Due to this limitation we suggest purchasing a dedicated beverage cooler or traditional refrigerator if you wish to store beverages other than wine.
What is the difference between a wine cooler, beverage cooler and refrigerator?
A wine cooler is set to a higher temperature range than a refrigerator or beverage cooler because wine should not be stored as cold as other beverages. On average a wine cooler will not offer temperatures below 46ºF degrees. A beverage cooler and refrigerator are similar to each other, but beverage coolers frequently do not offer the adjustable shelves or door storage that a refrigerator will, and they often have glass doors in order to display the contents. A wine and beverage cooler has a wide temperature range so it may be used for either, but keep in mind if you want to store both at the same time you will either have too-cold wine or too-warm drinks depending on how you choose to set the internal thermostat.

Infant massage is a way for you to gently nurture and spend time with your baby. Find out about the possible benefits of infant massage and know how to get started.
What are the benefits of infant massage?
Research suggests that infant massage can have various health benefits. For example, infant massage might:
- Encourage interaction between you and your baby
- Help your baby relax and sleep
- Positively affect infant hormones that control stress
- Reduce crying
Although further research is needed, some studies also suggest that infant massage involving moderate pressure might promote growth for premature babies.
When should I massage my baby?
Massaging your baby too soon after a feeding might cause your baby to vomit -- so wait at least 45 minutes after a feeding. Also pay close attention to your baby's mood. If your baby has a steady gaze and appears calm and content, he or she might enjoy a massage. If your baby turns his or her head away from you or becomes stiff in your arms, it might not be the best time for a massage.
When you start massaging your baby, what time of day you do massages and how often you massage your baby is up to you. You might give your newborn a daily massage. Your toddler might enjoy a massage at night as a soothing part of his or her bedtime routine.

Club competitions
National team competitions
15-12, 11-16, 17-20, 8-21
BK Ventspils booked their place in the last 16 of the EuroChallenge as a big fourth quarter powered them to a 69-51 win over the Norrkoping Dolphins.
The Latvians began to edge ahead in the third quarter but ultimately romped to victory as they outscored the hosts 21-8 down the stretch.
The third quarter ended with Keith Gabriel hitting a three-pointer for the Dolphins to cut the Ventspils lead to 48-43 but there was no containing the visitors in the final 10 minutes.
Sandis Valters and Folarin Campbell did the damage, with eight and five points respecitively in a 13-2 run that sent them 61-45 clear with 4:09 to go.
The Dolphins had looked dangerous in the early going, taking a 20-12 lead on Martin Ringstrom's three-pointer early in the second quarter, but Ventspils answered with an 11-0 run that turned the game on its head.
Valters finished with 15 points while Donald Sims had 13 for Ventspils.
Oladapo Ayuba's 10 points led the Dolphins.
Dolphins head coach Coach Paul Burke"I do not want to take anything away from Ventspils, it is a great team. If you hold a team down to 69 points it is good. We played good defense but we are having trouble scoring. We are not sharing the ball very well; we need to figure out what is wrong with that. We need someone that carries the team through the whole game. We need to find a solution to that. Our defense is good but we need to score better." Dolphins player Anton Saks"We started off the game pretty good in the first quarter, and after that we stopped playing hard. They played good defense and we did not shoot the ball very well. We need to score more than 51 points."
Ventspils head coach Robert Stelmahers"I am really happy with the victory. I knew this would be a hard game for us. The Dolphins do not play a typical defense. In the start of the game we were in trouble, they scored three open threes. But defense wins the games and we stepped up in the end."Ventspils player Donald Sims"For us it was all about defense. We wanted to stop their transition points and I think we succeeded. We tried to not to give them a good home crowd and to get them going. It was definitively our defense that won this game for us."

I just can't stand the federal libs any longer. My local, Bill Graham has does nothing I can recall for my neighbourhood, thus demonstrating that having a minister for an MP gets you nothing (unless you're in Quebec it seems).
Anyway, back on topic... I need to send a signal to the liberals that they're not safe from the public's wrath. It can't vote for that mix of redneck/plain odd Conservatives, can't for the Bloc, so that leaves only one national party. Jack Layton seems like a reasonable fellow (g'awd, someone shoot me, I got my citizenship in the 1990s to kick out Rae from Ontario).

So I was playing Greyjoy Mill against Stark/Tully, I had two games and in both games I managed to mill my opponents deck Entirely by turn 6/7 but both times I lost by the thinnest margin, once on a single dominance and once on a single Distinct Mastery.
After the game I found out that my opponent was running a 70 card deck! I was Not amused, were his deck 60 card I would have milled him two or three turns earlier and probably had no problem winning!
I thought that this was just a downside to mill in casual play that Id have to get used to but then I read the tournament rules and it turns out that there is no max deck limit in tournament play either! I realise that Mill isnt really meant to eat your opponents deck (negative player experience and all that) but its still one of the stronger aspects of it and you cant ignore it, am I the only one who feels a bit screwed running a mill deck when all your opponent has to do is have an extra few cards and all of a sudden you have less of an impact on the game?

Yup. Dude's pissed.
Damn. I came straight here and missed it.
I saw the first part of it. He's pissed no doubt. Just alot of anger and even indifference because of all the pressure. He was clearly disappointed in the team's performance, even at his own (IMO he played with awesome effort..and was the only one that really gave a ****), and then he was asked a few questions about his meeting with the other players/confrontation with Dwight. A few one word answers. Sounded REAL pissed at Dwight. But Then it got cut off. Didn't give much detail but I wanted to hear what else he had to say. I can't find it online anywhere...Anyone have any quotes?
His tone was so indifferent, like he's given up at this point. But it's understandable. He must be extremely tired and just down on this losing. But of course, we know that's not Kobe. He doesn't give up. He's a warrior. He's just paired with the wrong teammates and there is no fluidity on either end..Hopefully, Something will happen and this team will climb its way out of this losing, somehow.

Customer Raves & Reviews
beautiful simple elegant card
Love the way it came out. I couldn't decide on the main color I wanted for the wedding so I did my invitations in black, white, and silver. they came out perfect. Overall very happy and pleased with everything. Very easy to order and came in looking better then I thought.
Loved it
I was so happy with my order. Everything was just how I wanted it. :-D Customer service was also very helpful. I'm glad I choose magnet street.
Wonderful Product and Team
The reason I chose Magnet Street to begin with was their flexibility and willingness to personalize any product you choose. Their design team is wonderful and will change your product to your liking as many times as needed if you have a special request. I have been coming back for every wedding stationary piece I've needed.
I had invites and reception cards from another company and ordered these RSVPS because they could be customized to exactly what I wanted(i needed ppl to rsvp for a bus I'm hiring). The paper is great quality and they are so classic! Wish I would have ordered all my stationary in this set. I also received them within a week of ordering-well before they estimated time. Love them!!! Love magnet street! Magnet street will be my paper provider for all future needs!
matching rsvp card
I like that it is a postcard, but my printed address on the back is off center :/

March 31, 2015
I know how to treat a customer, and the ladies (Karen and Monica or Megan) treated me just right. Also, they went the extra mile and offered help even though I didn't need any. Very, very conscientious and professional.Eve from Spring, TX
March 26, 2015
Jeannie was very helpful, explaining the storage options and how much each one cost, as well as the insurance option. She was ready for me, since I reserved a space by calling Uncle Bob's before going to the location, and made it quick and easy!Jack from Conroe, TX
September 2, 2014
Chris does a truly superb job maintaining the facility. He always greats me by name and asks if there is any way that he can help. You are lucky to have him here in The Woodlands, Texas facility.James from The Woodlands, TX
August 29, 2014
So thankful for Chris' professionalism and level of customer service he always provided! If I need a storage space again, I will definitely come back to Uncle Bob's.Penny from The Woodlands, TX

I have already recommended several people. I felt welcome everytime I went there.Steve from Montgomery, TX
August 12, 2014
I was in hurry that day, and she was trying to help get me through everything quickly, so things may have been missed on both parts. Moving day is rough, when you don't know when you will get to be with your stuff again. SO far though it has been a great stay with ya'll.Angela from Magnolia, TX
August 1, 2014
The very sweet lady who helped me (I believe Connie was her name) was absolutely fabulous. I came right before she was supposed to take her lunch hour and she stayed and helped me even though the office was supposed to be closed.Elisha from The Woodlands, TX
April 23, 2014
I would be hard pressed to name an individual that I have ever dealt with that works harder, is more professional, is more attentive to every aspect of customer service and then some, than Chris. He never stops short of literally amazing me at how conscientious he is, nor how hard he works at trying to keep everything as perfect as possible around the units, the office, etc. He's the main reason my husband and I have come back to this location several times throughout the years, when we've been in need of storage.Jolene from The Woodlands, TX
February 6, 2014
Had a bad experience with a storage facility many many years ago so was a bit apprehensive when I approached the 1488 store in Conroe. Daniel introduced himself, told me what I could expect from their services and also that he would help in any way he could. Service was truly exceptional. He always had a smile and went out of his way to make sure that I had great service. Thanks Daniel.Wendy from Conroe, TX

Have you heard the myth that black cats are unsafe in October, in part because witches may try to adopt them for rituals? We sure have. But guess what? Top ASPCA experts agree that it's just not true.
At the ASPCA, we LOVE black kitties. (Some of our friendliest cats, like Marissa, are black—yet Marissa has waited more than nine months to find a family. What's up with that?)
Aside from the most important reason to adopt black kitties—that they really need extra help finding homes—here are a few reasons to take home one or two:
- Their fur won't show on your little black dress.
- You can tell your kids you adopted a mini panther.
- Black cats go with everything.
- In most cultures, black cats are a sign of good luck.
- You already know black cats are awesome—you have one at home! If you've got a great black kitty, tell us about him or her in the comments. You just might persuade someone else to give these felines a little extra attention.
Black cats are AWESOME, so much so that I've adopted 3. Spooks and Sabrina and Blossom. They are a joy to have around and I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world.
I have 12 solid black cats and they are prescious
I have a beautiful, sweet, loving black cat! She has been with me for 7 years and loves to kill the bugs in my house for me! She always meets me at the door when I come home and cozier up at night with me when I go to sleep. Whenever something is wrong or I don't feel well she knows and stays by my side! I love my little black cat!
I have a female blk kitten that was dropped off at my house. You could feel her backbone, she was so thin. My dogs cornered her in the pole shed and I had to put gloves on to catch her. All I saw was teeth and claws, she was so scared. I named her Love. She is the sweetest cat, but she will only let me pick her up and love her. She hides from strangers. She loves the dogs that cornered her now and runs with them morning and night to their kennels. Love has made a special place in my home and my heart.
My black cat is amazing. We found him outside and brought him in. The greatest cat I ever had. He's the most loving and affection cat ever. We call him lucky cause how everyone is says they're bad luck, but he's not he's lucky, he found a family that loves him day in and out. He's so smart its like having a baby. Lol
I have a black boy and a tabby girl, they're brother and sister and adorabe. they're both very smart and affectionate but the black boy is MUCH more playful than his sister. we have even taught him to play fetch whilst his sister will just sit and watch.
He loves a cuddle, sometimes too much as he gets jealous when i "stroke" my ipad when typing on it.
My daughter begged me to adopt this black cat..she was homeless and well living on the streets...I already have an all white cat I told her she said please momma. So I gave in and we took her on home...Her name is Nala she is 2 years old and you would swear she was a dog...You can't say here kitty kitty. YOu have to call her by her name. She plays fetch with paper balls...If you ball up a piece of paper she is right there in front of you. She is 16 pounds and I love her with all I am...She Def has made an impact in this family! We all Love her so much!
I've had many black cats over the years and they have all been wonderful and full of personality. I currently have one little black kitty named Sunshine but I usually call her Sunny. She is the sweetest little love bug, she's kind of shy around other people but she is a darling girl. I wouldn't hesitate to get another black cat when I no longer have a full house:)
I have (2) black cats-Philla & Phoebe. I found them several years ago as kittens abandoned in a wooded area-hungry & frightened. I managed to catch them (after feeding them on the side of the road)and took them home. I was unable to find a home for them, and knowing their chances of getting adopted, I kept them as my pets. They are beautiful animals, shiny black coats and striking yellow eyes and are the same as any domestic short hair. Don't allow ancient superstitions to effect your decision on adopting-black is beautiful!
I have loved black cats all my life. Kali my current black cat, and is my protector. She came to us in a semi feral state and was a grumpy girl, until she was treated repeatedly with love and kindness and settled in. Now she tucks me in at night, literally pulling the covers around my shoulders and then snuggling there to protect me. If I am upset she is in my lap comforting me. I am blessed to have her. I have always thought that blackies have a better nature that most cats, though I have a tortie and a long hair too.

Iris+Chocolate= powdery, therefore lipstick I guess.
I smell no lipstick in Dior Homme, so I don't really know.
If fragrance has a gender, so does all art.
At what stage in Dior Homme's development do you smell lipstick? I smell fishy lipstick in Rive Gauche (women's) up close (but from afar its all succulent rose). The lipstick smell I know smells slightly fishy and powdery.
If fragrance has a gender, so does all art.
No lipstick smell to my nose, either.

Lipstick city for me! I'm not sure why, either. I prefer Iris Silver Mist, which is to say I like carrots more than lipstick.
Oh, Drole de Rose also smells just like lipstick to me.

From Dior Homme, I get not as much of lipstick note, yet an immense powderiness during the drydown- may this also be explained because of the iris?
Iris is probably the culprit. Orris root is used as a stabilizer in cosmetics and accounts for both their violet and powdery smell. Lipstick, I think, and especially face powder. Sniff and see - lipstick, face powder, and Dior Homme are kindred spirits. Scent-wise.
I suppose the "lip-stickiness" of a scent depends on how much iris is used and what with, no?

To me, Dior Homme smells of vintage pressed powder. Lipstick has a waxy, plastic-y smell which I don't find in DH.
Last edited by Kevin Guyer; 8th March 2010 at 07:29 AM.
From the Dior Homme Cologne, perhaps. But not from DH. And I get more 'lipstick' from TDC's Bois d'Iris and even more from Serge Lutens' Rousse.
Iris + Amber = Lipstick? I dunno. I asked a friend if he thought it smelled like a make up bag and he said, "Yea, it kinda does man." Oddly enough, I feel comfortable wearing this than PdN New York. New York just smells like some icky lotion my mom puts on. My mom annoys the hell out of me, so it really traumatized me from wearing New York ever again. LOL.
Someone else thinks it does too? I thought I was alone on this.
It really does smell like lipstick to me. It's weird.. I might try it again and try to look past that.

I love both DH and NY. Two of the finest Men's colognes available. I can understand the lipstick associations with an iris based scent (DH) even though it doesn't smell like it to me. I don't know where you are picking up the lipstick association with NY.
To me, the opening notes of Dior Homme smells like "mom's purse." Not just lipstick, but the combination of cosmetics, powders, lipstick together. It lasts about 20 minutes or so and settles into a nice iris scent.
Last edited by StylinLA; 8th March 2010 at 03:00 PM.
Yep, iris. It shows up in a lot of cosmetics, which explains the association with the "makeup bag" smell. (not specifically lipstick to my nose)
I love Dior Homme though.
I'm just not getting that lipstick from Dior Homme at all...
The iris note in Dior Homme is similar to what I recall lipstick smelling like when I was growing up. Not everyone's mothers and grandmothers wore Avon, so YMMV.
I totally get it in the original DH, and this is the only reason why it's not sitting on my shelf. However, the intense version seems much more to my taste.
It does not smell like lipstick to me - at least not the kind I use.

Spray...you are not alone. I get an incredible make-up-bag-fulla-old-lipstick smell from DH from beginning to end...but I LOVE the fragrance. I always assumed it was the iris, but then again it is not present in Dreamer at all....
Its funny, I receive a compliment almost every time that I wear it, but when probed about the lipstick accord, everyone says, "well now that you mention it...."
Dior Homme to me is way too feminine, I would rather smell it on my wife!
Off-Site Decants =) (updated 05/16/12)
I'm thinking that the whole makeup vibe comes from iris and cocoa.
Is the juice worth the squeeze?
The lipstick.... duh! You didn't know? They soak bits of Walmart brand lipstick in it before shipping out the bottles. Jeez, I didn't realize it was still such a secret.

Some guys here have mentioned makeup...
I think I get a combo of makeup and lipstick. The iris + cocoa theory is worth investigating.
It's not really "iris" that is associated with makeup, it's orris root. Not all iris fragrances are based on orris root. When an actual orris note is used in perfumery, synthetics are usually used, since pure orris absolute, orris butter, or orris concrete, are some of the most expensive perfume materials in existence. But to add to confusion, often the name "iris" will be used in a pyramid when "orris" is the actual note.
An iris note, on the other hand, is often based on the scent of the iris flower, and is built up using aroma chemicals in order to reproduce the scent of irises without ever really smelling much like orris root. Orris root doesn't really smell much like iris IMO. Actually, it smells more like violets if anything. Orris root has has a very distinct smell on its own. The rhizome itself is not prohibitively expensive, and in it's powdered form it has been used extensively in cosmetics, and as a fixative in potpourri mixtures for many years. The yield of essential oil is very low however and it is difficult to produce, thus making natural orris perfume materials expensive.
I really believe it is the orris root note in DH that is giving people the association with "lipstick." Just because a fragrance contains an orris note however, doesn't meant that fragrance will smell like makeup, but DH is built around an orris note, rather than just containing this note.
Also, it is important to remember that natural orris root is one of the most common and pervasive allergens in both perfumery and cosmetics and thus is being used less and less due to this fact. (Whenever I had to work with the stuff, I had to wear a mask and gloves and still would be sick for days afterwards). The synthetic scent of orris root will often be added to cosmetics to smell like "makeup" even though there is no longer any actual orris root being used in the manufacturing of the product itself.

Wow, great answer. If I'm ever on Who Wants to be a Millionaire...
Last edited by Spray; 9th March 2010 at 06:46 AM.
I am curious - do any synthetic orris components bother you, or only natural orris root? Do you mean that simply working with the absolute would cause you problems, or only in its powdered form?
I guess depending on those answers of yours i'm really interested in a sort of tangential question: have you ever tried Amouage Reflection Man? I smell a very strong high quality orris root note there. It could very well be entirely synthetic but I'd like to think it is at least partially natural. It smells natural, to me. Anyhow, if you've tried it, what did you think? Did you have any reaction?
Back on topic - I don't think it is the orris alone that evokes lipstick but orris + amber notes surely could. Orris + tolu balsam or benzoin + some waxy sandalwood or something could easily turn lipstick-ish.

The first time I tried Dior Homme, I thought it smelled like Dr. Pepper. Subsequent tries have changed that opinion.

I thought iris flowers had no smell. The ones I've grown had no smell at all.
Last edited by mrclmind; 9th March 2010 at 08:40 PM.
Ah. I'm familiar with just a handful of varieties, but don't remember any of them smelling like anything.
It is like it smells like the bottom of a much older females make up bag -
I found that Royal Copenhagen has that same smell in the down dry - - - - - - - - - -???
The scent that you are experiencing is orris. This smell has been described as fruity-floral, oily, voilet-like, ethereal.
If somebody were to ask me what it 'actually' smells like, I would tell them to go stuff their heads into their girlfriends makeup bag..quite literally. To me, it always reminds me of women's foundation or lipstick. Dior homme is quite iris for a men's fragrance, then again, I do believe there's no such thing as a man's fragrance. Hiris by hermes is almost all iris. Maybe you can test it and see if that smells like lippy too!
Interesting about the association with Dr. Pepper. I have always thought that Gucci Pour Hoome smelled alot like A&W root beer due to the orris. Perhaps with the right mix of other ingredients, we have discovered a new facet of perfume, a cola note!

I definitely get the lipstick. And I just can't do it. I've sampled it a few times, hoping to like it. I just don't. That's ok... plenty of ones (too many) that I do.
i just tried this out for the first time and damn it it does smell like lipstick to me...interestingly enough though im enjoying it? i dont know what it is but there is some other note in there that blending in with the lipstick which makes it enjoyable.
Yes, I get loads of lipstick smell from DH. DH Intense - even more. It's my favorite part. Wish it lasted longer.
Not a very masculine scent, but I don't care. Love it too much to care.
I passed around a bottle of DH at a party not too long ago - a party attended by fellow fragrance fanatics, men and women - and everyone said "lipstick" or "makeup" upon initial sniff.

180 on this one.
I was at Sephora last night doing some mother's day shopping and figured I might as well pickup a sample and give it one more try. To my surprise, I hardly smell the "lipstick" scent when applied to my skin. It's still definitely there front and center when I apply it to a card. I actually find it quite pleasant on me right now, though it's a little weak.
I can't wear Dior Homme, all I get from it is lipstick and old lady makeup bag smell.
I kinda like that fatty, greasy smell of lipstick. I smell it in Serge Noir when first applied.

Jason McCue:
Terrorism is a failed brand
In this gripping talk, lawyer Jason McCue urges for a new way to attack terrorism, to weaken its credibility with those who are buying the product — the recruits. He shares stories of real cases where he and other activists used this approach to engage and create change.
