Mary Kay Eye Primer Reviews
Really like itThis actually works. It keeps my makeup in place and (I swear) even helps keep my eyeliner from running. My only complaint is that it doesn't prevent a line of color from settling in the crease of my eyelid. That's a minor issue, though! — 6 years, 9 months agoKTP14 | 16 reviews
No crease, No messMK Eye Primer is AMAZING! It helps the eye makeup go on smoothly and keeps it on without creasing, smudging, etc. It's wonderful. — 6 years, 9 months agomcgoza | 5 reviews
Great ProductMy eye makeup used to gather in the crease of my eyelid and since I have started using the eye primer I don't have this problem anymore. Can't live without it. — 6 years, 10 months agohart9966 | 14 reviews
Summer ProofI LOVE this! I've tried all different brands and this is the best by far. A little goes a long way also. I made one tube last a year. The true test came in a 90 degree humid day. I used a little extra, but my shimmery shadow didn't budge for atleast 8 or 9 hours. — 6 years, 10 months agoPrdctJunkie | 23 reviews
I LOVE THIS PRIMER!There is a world of difference between eyes 'with' and 'without' this primer! It definitely makes the shadows go on much smoother--they last much longer--and the colors are more true to palette. For me the Mary Kay EYES have it!!! GREAT STUFF! — 6 years, 10 months agologanvilledm | 2 reviews
Works as it shouldThis is the first eye primer I have used. The primer keeps my eye makeup on as it should. — 6 years, 10 months agohappytravels | 11 reviews
Eye shadow glue!We call this eye shadow glue! It truly smooths and keeps eye makeup on until you take it off (with our eye makeup remover, of course!) Very inexpensive! — 6 years, 10 months agomkmomtracy | 21 reviews
Keeps makeup on when it's even hotGreat product I only use on my eyes. I had an awful time with my eye make-up always coming off, and this stuff worls miracles keeping it on and looking freash! — 6 years, 11 months agoersnow23 | 58 reviews
Love it!My eye makeup has always come off by mid-day. But, after using this, my eyeshadow stays on all day long. You only need a tiny spec, and it goes a long ways. — 6 years, 11 months agoWonger | 5 reviews
Really WorksThis is the only product that can keep eye shadow on my eye for longer than 2 hours. I wouldn't go any where without it. — 6 years, 11 months agosrobert99 | 5 reviews

My Reasons for Reporting This

Rated 4.3 out of 5 by 202 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by quack Great hotel, Enjoyable holiday. For a relaxing and enjoyable holiday I recommend the Sheraton Senggigi Beach Resort a great location adjoining the waterfront at Senggigi Beach. From the welcome drink at reception until we left using the Sheraton lounge at the airport we were made to feel like royalty. The food the ambiance and the staff made this a wonderful experience. "We will be back" November 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by MCVPT Great to relax... Very good to relax near the pool. Great food. Great sunset view. Staff very friendly and always ready to help. November 2, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Wilf40 BACK HOME AGAIN After 20 years I've come there, of course, the hotel needs some refurbishment despite the actions already taken including the recent improvement of the WLAN-System. But the respective issues are minor points, I still like the Sheraton at Senggigi Beach for its personal touch, the efforts shown by all of its staff to make their guests feel at home as well as for the quality of the food offered for breakfast or dinner. Impeccable the garden, pool and beach. October 30, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by CFF76 Not a memorable stay Came an hour earlier before standard check-in time with a baby. SPG room not ready and given a non SPG room instead, located very far at the corner of the hotel. Really unsuitable for traveling parents with baby. Invited 2 families with children to have dinner at Sunset Bar & Rest (check #0041585). Waited for more than an hour before meals were served. That after complaining over and over again to waiters. Really unpleasant situations because the friends' children were starved. Horrible dining experience. October 30, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by spatzle Our stay was WAY too short First off, yes, the hotel is long overdue for renovations and I'm sure that will be rectified soon. Unfortunately when it does we'll be losing one of the best SPG value properties (downgraded this year to a Cat 1). Everything about our 1 night reward stay was terrific. From check-in to check-out (both quick and efficient) all our interactions with staff were friendly and professional. SPG recognition was great with the appropriate points being chosen/rewarded and a wonderful desert plate, fruit plate, juices and note from the GM waiting in our room. Our seaside terrace room afforded ocean glimpses and convenient porch access to the grounds. The room was clean and expectedly slightly tired but certainly not down trodden. The pool is in a picturesque setting as is the Sunset Bar and the Bawah Putih Grill. The beach is pretty enough to lounge on but as others have mentioned is not ideal for swimming. We briefly used the small fitness room before switching from the two treadmills to the humid roads north of the resort. Due to time constraints outside of the run we really didn't get a chance to check out Senggigi proper to get a feel of the place. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again especially at its current Cat 1 or even previous Cat 2 level. Lombok itself is a great alternative to busier Bali with so much to see/do all enhanced by the friendly Sasak people. Proximity to the Gili Islands is also a bonus. October 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Harry17 Awesome escape Booked seven nights to chill, ticked every box I was hoping to tick. Well done all the team. October 25, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by upandup Will be Great after improvements Hotel has best location in Senggigi but overdue for renovations. Staff are excellent! Excellent pool layout, needs a makeover but its still the best design we have come across and the pool slide is a winner with children. Breakfast buffet is superb however the large volume of flies crawling over foods is unappealing - covers required please. Building No One is not suitable for those with children as at least 4 out of 7 nights there is night time entertainment during themed buffet dinners and guess what? Those speakers face Building No One and blare out music up until 10pm. We loved the traditional grounds, the private beach and friendly staff. Rooms tired but comfortable. October 17, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Sharpey Pleasantly Surprised After reading previous reviews I was expecting the resort to be tired & run down, but far from it. We had a garden terrace room which was very clean & in excellent condition with the decking on the terrace appearing to be brand new, as were all the other ones we saw. We ate at the poolside restaurant a couple of times & the food & service was first class as was the service everywhere, there are some really great people who work at this resort. One small complaint is that there were a few functions that precluded us from dining at the main restaurant for 3 nights out of 5, which forced us off site to dine. The Sheraton lounge at the airport is well worth using & a great idea (A$5 for the buffet) Please pass on our thanks to all the Sheraton staff who made our stay such a pleasure. September 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Vossie Sheraton Lombok bliss We absolutely loved our stay at this wonderful Hotel. The ambiance was great, the room was just beautiful with still an Indonesian flavor to it as we don't like non character modern rooms. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The buffet breakfast is just fantastic the choices are endless. The piano player Tono just gives it that cachet, a pity he does not play in the beautiful lobby as well! The pool is beautifully designed with small "islands" etc and overlooking the beach. The restaurant and beach bar serve lovely food at reasonable prices. We also enjoyed the Indonesian buffet night with a Bali dancing show very much. The hotel is a short walk from mini supermarts, banks and other restaurants etc. The internet facility room is free and beautiful as well. We recommend this hotel as the best place to stay when holidaying in Lombok. Top notch! PS they also have a Sheraton lounge at Lombok airport. Thank you Sheraton Senggigi! Mike and Marian (Perth Australia) September 23, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by NFL8 Good base to explore Lombok NW Lombok and the Gillies Nice suite upgrade at check-in. Warm welcome. The hotel seems slightly old but very well maintained. There is a great diving shop located in the hotel. Food could be a bit better considering the local high standards. September 22, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Yengkee Nice & Friendly staff Though guest room shown aged but generally clean and comfortable. Short walking distance to Senggigi tourist centre where easily access to tour information, restaurant, shops & etc. We (group of 4) were very impressed by the friendly and helpful staff in this hotel, for example, we had to leave for airport not later than 7:15 am and the buffet breakfast (already paid for) start at 7:00am but the hotel staff were happily accommodated us at 6:30am while they were preparing. The variety of foods were as good as full breakfast. September 17, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by G2sWorld Hotei with friendly staff, good sea view and location Though the hotel needs some upgrading to be done to their facilities and room amenities, it is still a hotel for a good R&R break. It has good location, proximity to some shops and eating places. Friendly and responsive staff. Good placing for the spa too! August 25, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Rmkm04 Quality hotel in a lovely garden setting The Sheraton Senggigi is set in lovely gardens that delighted our two small children (3.5yrs and 18 months). The beach is calm and generally clean so also great for family fun. The pool and separate kids pool were great, although a little cold in the morning - fortunately the sea was warm! There is always a bit of a rush for pool loungers, so get up early to grab a spot. The hotel food is great and well-priced and there are several excellent restaurants for families within easy walking distance. The staff were very friendly and loved talking to our kids. Babysitting wasn't available which was a pity, but we still had a great holiday. August 7, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Happytrav Very relaxing The hotel staff were all very friendly and more than happy to help in any way possible. Breakfast buffet had a huge range and variety of food. Swimming pool covered a vast area and catered for all levels of swimming ability and never felt crowded. Plenty of pool lounges also. The turtle program run by the hotel was also great to see. A wonderful relaxing week. Would go back again without hesitation. July 29, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Poul27 Great staff Found the staff always very pleasant and would go out of their way to be helpful. The surrounds are beautiful, the room was lovely. Would definitely stay again. July 27, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by KateOJ Pleasant surroundings Goofd food, especially breakfasts, staff all happy, helpful and friendly July 26, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Katie001 Beautiful setting This is such a lovely hotel. From the moment we arrived we were instantly relaxed. The gardens are peaceful with little areas to go and sit if you wanted time out. I normally take about a week to unwind but on our first day I was in the zone and loving everything about this hotel. The beach and the pool are great and the swim up pool bar was an added plus. There isn't anything not to like about this hotel even the location is spot on. Thanks for a great time. Can't wait to go back. July 16, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by tonyjan This hotel provided everything we wanted We had a lovely, relaxing family stay, and the hotel was excellent value, especially the daily buffet breakfast. Anything we asked for was provided promptly, and the location was ideal for snorkelling right off the beach in front, catching an outrigger boat to the Gili Islands, and sampling the many great restaurants down the main street. July 16, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Within01 The place to be In this hotel every one understands how to deliver service quality in a consistent way. Polite, friendly and service oriented people are the backbone of the hotel in Sengigi. We enjoyed the atmosphere and very lovely breakfast and dinner. Really a place to visit again. July 14, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by andymick Lovely Hotel Excellent value for money, great gardens, wonderful breakfast July 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Gita88 The best location and beautifull place to stay in senggigi The best place to stay, even after 18 years had past since the first time i stayed at this hotel. It is still the best place and most wellcoming place to stay in sengigi beach lombok. Deffinitely will come back again since more thing to do now in lombok island. July 9, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by WKRY Worse than my expectation 1. When I was seating on poolside area, I saw a staff who spat something out to the plant. He is very very dirty. I feel he is not respect me because he made it in front of me. 2. The restaurant is no quality standard in the hotel. I dined lobster 2 times in the same restaurant. The first time is good enough. I felt it is value for money. However, The second is extremely small. I felt it is NOT value for money. The cost are both same price. July 2, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Sabatino Outsanding Hotel We loved this place and were so glad it was recommended to us, we will definitley be back July 2, 2014

Rated 5 out of 5 by Guna Well managed, a gem. Senggigi itself is a well kept secret....commercializations has not taken a toll yet. The hotel is beautifully managed. Everything tip top and comfortable. A great place to spend some quiet time. June 29, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by weremum Excellent - again Had a marvellous holiday at the resort again. The staff are friendly, courteous and can't do enough to assist. The food is great and although the hotel is showing its age in some places the rooms are comfy, especially the terrace rooms, we love staying here. The Sunset bar is the perfect place to while away the evening with a cocktail or two. Looking forward to our next stay. June 13, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Xenos Home away from home I have been staying here occasionally for more than 10 years and it never changes. The staff are always welcoming, service and facilities always spot on, and I just feel comfortable there. June 11, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Bkumar The "Sheraton experience". We arrived in Sheraton Lombok having a baggage missing. The Sheraton staff led by Arnawa asisted us in contact the airport and keeping tabs with the airline to ensure that the bag was delivered to the 2 days later. Arnawa and his team were incredibly professional in making our family holiday pleasant and enjoyable. Whilst the hotel does seem a little aged, it is the warmth and hospitality of the staff that impressed me. Every little request was attended in a timely fashion. June 6, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by LombokLike Relaxing Lombok Sheraton Wonderful resort, great facilities. Awesome location. Refreshing views and very helpful friendly staff. Great breakfast, overall well pampered in the break from regular fast busy life. Great value for money. June 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by LIsa09 Can't stop coming back! We stayed at the Sheraton Senggigi Lombok for the 2nd time in May with friends (who we recommended to stay there) for 3 nights. Once again the hotel was excellent! We had a few problems with 2 of our rooms and after speaking to the staff, to our delight we were upgraded the next day. All the staff are extremely friendly, professional and fantastic with my children. I wouldn't stay anywhere else and again have recommended it to friends who are coming over in August and we have also rebooked for 5 nights in August. We can't wait to go back! May 31, 2014

Only if you've never seen the stupendously excellent range of high-quality power accessories from mophie. The mophie powerstation juice pack duo (available in white exclusively from the Apple store here) is just one of many, but I was able to get the new white duo charger to test out with my new black iPad mini. If you travel a lot with iPad and iPhone in tow, this is an attractive and powerful battery option that will keep your stuff charged up..

It's a Math World for Animals
Animal mathematicians are teaching scientists a thing or two about numbers.
By Emily Sohn, 00:00 AM October 7, 2003
Birds do it. Dogs do it. Even salamanders do it.
The ability to solve math problems is showing up in all sorts of unlikely creatures. From monkeys who know the difference between 2 and 3 to dogs who can calculate the fastest route, animal mathematicians are teaching scientists a few things about numbers.
A growing body of research suggests that nature probably discovered math long before people did. Studies of animal mathematicians might help explain how people learn to add, subtract, and mul...

Good racial skills for an Alien?
I am making an alien race science captain with a science ship and I have no idea what racial skills to start with?
I was thinking acute senses, telepathy, telekinisis and astrophysics. But I have no idea if these are good choices?
Also does the detect stealth chances on telepathy and acute senses stack?
Any advice on good racial skills to take would be very helpful.

New York is an amazing city, especially from a hip-hop perspective. It's one of the few places on earth where you can see that hip-hop is part of the culture, not just something that you watch on TV. But for me – doing music that is mostly in French and not in some Congolese language that sounds exotic for Western people – it's a difficult market. I take everything that happens here like a plus one. I'm not supposed to be here.

The Blue Room (La Chambre bleue)
By Alan Scherstuhl
On a single viewing, Aurora seems an impressively ambitious experiment—something the competition has in short supply. As always, however, the Cannes schedule is back loaded. Still to come are movies by Alejandro González Iñárritu, former Palme d'Or laureate Abbas Kiarostami, and Nikita Mikhalkov, although the only ones I anticipate with any excitement are Apichatpong Weerasethakul's Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives, Doug Liman's Valerie Plame drama Fair Game, and, precisely because it's a first feature by a virtually unknown filmmaker, Ukrainian documentarian Sergei Loznitsa's My Joy. The "Regard," by contrast, has a number of potential discoveries, plus new movies by festival veterans Hong Sangsoo, Jia Zhangke, Lodge Kerrigan, and, of course, Jean-Luc Godard. They say that some performances are bad enough to win an Oscar; Cannes '10 would seem to be stocked with movies that are too good for the competition.

text: They have had a role in the organization of the Carroll Wellness Center and numerous other beneficial projects, and on Nov. 18, they were in a mood to share those deeds with the community.The Rotary Club of Hillsville welcomed guests to its weekly meeting at Shoneys and members discussed the groups mission and community involvement.From being a founder of the Wellness Center, Playground 2000, a supporter of the Farmers Market, the Training Center and the Christmas Fund, theres a lot of energy in our club, said President Brian Spencer.The club, which has 31 members, has been active in a number of area interests. We look for things in the community where we can be an encouragement and a help, said Service Committee Chairman Barry Mayberry.Locally, Past President Randall Gravley was instrumental in the groups efforts to get the Wellness Center going. The Rotary Club laid the groundwork, canvassed the community and helped raise funds for that project. The club also sponsors the Interact Club at Carroll County High School, raises funds for scholarships and sponsors a cottage at the Training Center. Rotary also put in a sign at the Farmers Market, helps with the Carroll County Fair and gives food to the First United Methodist Church Food Pantry and toys for the Carroll Christmas Fund.The Rotary Club also assists in international projects through the Rotary Foundation. Since 1985, Rotary International has teamed with the World Health Organization to combat and eradicate polio worldwide. Today, the disease only exists in four countries. Worldwide, Rotary is in 160 countries in 29,000 clubs. Its membership is in excess of 1.2 million members and is meant to be a cross section of local business and professional leaders.Spencer said while the club does a lot of good works in the community, it doesnt go out of its way to self-promote. The open house was just a way for people to learn more about the club and its many works.We dont advertise a lot of what we do, Spencer said. We wanted to share with the community what weve done in the past and what were working towards. We thought we would invite people in to see us more at a personal level.

Forget 'Peter Pan' and 'Grease': Here Are 10 Musicals We'd Like to See on Live TV
Last fall, NBC had a surprising hit with The Sound of Music: Live! Did we think that a live broadcast of a musical that by all accounts is not as fun on stage as it is on celluloid would be a grand thing to sit through on a Thursday night? Especially when it featured a country music superstar who was not particularly known for her acting talents? Well, people loved it and people hated it, but it sure was fun to watch and tweet about, and its success convinced its producers to make it an annual event. Peter Pan, the 1954 musical, will be broadcast in December. And just yesterday, Fox announced they'll be following suit with a live broadcast of Grease sometime next year. … Read More

10 Stage-to-Screen Musicals Hollywood Got Right
Adapting a musical, Broadway or otherwise, to film is a tricky business. Musicals have their own specific magic that can sometimes feel inextricably tied to the stage, and their inherent theatricality can, if not handled correctly, come off as unbearably camp on the big screen. On Friday, we got chills after watching the new international trailer for Les Misérables, and, especially after Anne Hathaway's performance on SNL last night we are registering our feelings as squarely hopeful that the film will knock us out. Though Hollywood has had many failures in this area (Phantom of the Opera, Nine), some of their adaptations have been completely brilliant, in some cases even overtaking the original productions. After the jump, we've put together a list of some of the best ever stage-to-screen musicals — both to warm you up for Les Mis and just maybe to give a little inspiration to the producers and directors of the upcoming film remakes of Jersey Boys and Into the Woods. Make it work, you guys. … Read More
Timeline: The Life and Death and (Maybe?) Rebirth of the Hollywood Musical
In spite of all our best efforts, Rock of Ages — currently sitting at 38% fresh among top critics on Rotten Tomatoes — is out this Friday, because if the multiplexes were missing anything this summer, it's painfully earnest renditions of "Waiting for a Girl Like You" and Tom Cruise in assless chaps. Yes, the movie musical has fallen on rather hard times, but if we can learn anything from tracking its ebbs and flows of popularity, it's that you can never count the genre out; after the jump, we've put together a brief but educational timeline to illustrate the many beat-downs and comebacks of the movie musical. … Read More

Ten of the most memorable, from Grease to Beverly Hills, 90210 to Superbad, are after the jump. … Read More

23.12.05 - By Troy Ondrizek: I have my own opinions on a fighters ability in the ring. I, like the rest of you determine in my own mind if I really want to see a particular fighter fight again. After his less than thrilling performance against Chris Byrd, DaVarryl Williamson has garnered his share of critics. Terms of washed up, mentally fragile, and gun shy; have graced the paragraphs of several articles. Maybe some of these statements have some validity. Then again the argument for DaVarryls capabilities is just as strong. DaVarryl has had impressive victories over Corey Sanders and Derrick Jefferson. Hes put away Oliver McCall and Kevin McBride. All these are quality wins for him.
In contrast, he was dropped cold by Joe Mesi in one round, and had a controversial Technical Decision loss to Wladimir Klitschko. However, you can judge DaVarryls accomplishments according to your own litmus test. However, o one can claim that DaVarryl isnt a class act outside of the ring. A devout family man, and community leader, DaVarryl took a brief break from his home life to gloat to me about his family, and to change the minds of his detractors about his fighting ability.
Troy: DaVarryl, besides elbow surgery, what have you been up to since the Byrd fight?
DaVarryl: I dont know if you know this Troy, but Im a big family man. Family always comes first. I have two kids. My eldest is eight, and my youngest is six. They are involved in gymnastics and drama, so I am too. My wife keeps me busy too. Its amazing how she always finds something to keep me occupied. I try to keep involved with local law enforcement and politics. My family definitely takes up most of my time. So to stay in shape I run with my conditioning coach, and play basketball. Doctors said I could resume training, so you know Im doing back-flips. I am so excited. Im waning myself back into the routine of things.
Troy: Family is so important in a fighters career. How has your family helped you?
DaVarryl: My family plays a huge role. Were a close group you know. My wife and I have trimmed the fat, sort to say. We know who our true friends are, and we keep them close. It has created a very healthy atmosphere for my career to grow in. This environment to say has helped keep me young. I can run for days, and go twelve rounds with ease. I know Im heading towards forty, but I feel like Im twenty-five.
Troy: How did the elbow injury affect you during the Byrd fight?
DaVarryl: I really cant put my finger on it. You know I believe I hurt it during the Derrick Jefferson fight. We were banging, and you know after a fight you get some bumps and bruises, and some aches and pains. I thought it would go away with time. It never really went away. I was hiding it well from my trainers and the other gym people. I kept telling myself it was nothing. The one person I couldnt fool was my wife. You know I tried to hide it and lie about it, but you know she knows me. I give her kudos for that. I ignored the pain because I was facing a world title shot. You know I didnt want to waste that chance. I thought the adrenaline of fighting would mask the pain. I couldnt throw my money punch. I have a big right hand, and everyone knows its coming. It was bad timing for me. I dont want to take anything away from Chris Byrd; hes a good fighter. You know hes a world champion for a reason. I had great confidence coming into the fight. I brought in three guys from out of town to spar. All three could pop. I was proud of myself for being able to walk away with no black eyes, and all my teeth. I was able to do well with only one hand. I told myself I needed to give myself a little more credit. It was my confidence you know and wanting the title that made me neglect my elbow. Once again; Im not making excuses, because Chris is a good fighter. I want another opportunity. I know I can get another shot. Nicolay Valuev would be a good fight for me. His style and my style make for a favorable fight for me.
Troy: If you cant get an immediate title shot; what fight are you seeking to propel you into contention?
DaVarryl: I dont know, I mean if it falls back on the rankings, like the WBO. I would like to get that Lamon Brewster fight. With his mandatory up in the air, he can fight an optional opponent. You know we fought four times in the amateurs. I won three of four meetings. Lamon, myself, and a guy named Nate Jones kept swip-swopping one, two, and three in the rankings. I think a fight with Lamon would be a real good fight. Maybe Don King can set something up for me.
Troy: At 37, in regards to a title shot or retirement; what is the timetable for your career?
DaVarryl: I am ranked around seven or eight across the board. One good fight and I can be a mandatory. All heavyweights out there know who DaVarryl Williamson is. Troy, they all know who I am. One: they know me through the amateurs. Two: they know me as a professional. I have fought, sparred, taught, and raised a lot of these guys. They all know me you know. Ive had guys say Im the best amateur heavyweight champion ever, especially one who came up short on the Olympic team. People say that I put it all together. Im no washed up thirty-seven year old fighter. I ran with the best for years. Ive been on top of the game for years and years. I still feel that there is an opportunity for me to make something for myself.
Troy: Do you feel that you have anything left to prove?
DaVarryl: I certainly have something to prove to myself. I know the Joe Mesi fight wasnt me. The last fight with Byrd was me; I just didnt have all my weapons. Unfortunately its just one of those things. My next fight, everyone will see me.
Troy: Now that Mesi might fight again; do you want to avenge that loss?
DaVarryl: (Emphatically) Are you kidding me? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I would want to be his first one. Its an easy fight to set up for you Joe. Thats a kid I raised. Hes one of the kids I raised in the heavyweights. I would show them who DaVarryl Williamson was.
Troy: I just talked to him the other day, and hes determined to come back in a big way.
DaVarryl: Yeah, I mean Ill fight him again. That fight would be huge. You know Troy, what Im getting is; I know Im on their minds, but what Im not getting is anyone saying I want to fight DaVarryl Williamson. You never hear that. You never hear champions wanting to face me. Their afraid to call me out. You see I dont trash talk in boxing. I respect boxing. I trash talk in ping pong and basketball, but not at something Im very good at. I dont need my mouth to prove anything. My fist talks loud enough to give my mouth a break. Thats just who I am.
Troy: Out of any of those fighters who ducked you; is there anyone you would like to call out?
DaVarryl: No, Ill fight anyone. Ill be happy to fight the winner of Rahman-Toney. Maybe I should get Wladimir Klitschko again. That would be a good fight to have after the Rahman-James Toney fight. That would be in a little while.
Troy: What champion are you looking to relieve of their belt?
DaVarryl: Like I said, Nicolay Valuev has a very complimentary style for me. Lamon Brewster has a great style. I want to fight Chris Byrd again. The winner of Rahman and James Toney. I absolutely believe in my heart that I can beat all of them. At the end of the day all my opponents know they have a serious chance of losing.
Troy: Ill let you get back to your family, so in closing; is there anything you want to say to your fans?
DaVarryl: For my wife, this is one of her favorite sites. She goes on and talks to the readers. One reader said (laughing) if you can believe this; That DaVarryl Williamson isnt a household name, hes not even a name in his own house. I mean these people are funny. Imagine what some of these people look like. Imagine what some of these guys look like with their shirts off. Some of these guys have some harsh things to say about fighters, and they have never fought in their life. They hide behind a computer and articulate their derogatory statements from there. They wouldnt say these things to the fighters face. Even if they dont like the fighter, its pure entertainment, you know, enjoy it. People always have something bad to say about boxing. Troy, you know, I love this sport, and I respect it. Everybody does something for a living, and their not always the best at it. No one tries to publicly tell them that they are bad at it. They can say what they want about me as a fighter. Troy, you know, boxing doesnt define me. Being a good husband, and a good father; that defines me. Most of these guys would give their arms to do what I do, you know. I want to thank all the readers who log on and love the sport. Thank you for keeping me in your thoughts and conversations. Happy Holidays to everyone. Im going to have a prosperous 2006, and I wish the same to you Troy and everyone reading this. Good luck to all.
I would like to thank DaVarryl for taking his time out to talk to me. I would like to thank his kids for keeping the interruptions down to a minimum. A Special Thanks to Kevin T. Mullowney for setting this meeting up.

AMEX Offers Rocket Into Orbit Rewards; Is a Trip to Mars Close Behind?
"Space Adventures is the latest of many unique experiences we offer to fuel our enrollees' imaginations and prompt our cardmembers to ask not just what they can do with points, but how far they can go with them," said Chris Lynch, vice president, Rewards Management at American Express. "Without dipping into their wallets, cardmembers can redeem for an almost limitless number of things — like a journey to the cusp of space or a rejuvenating day at a luxurious spa — and use points to cover the costs."
American Express is offering three Space Adventures packages to enrollees who wish to experience the sights and sensations of space travel:
- Zero-Gravity Flight (1,000,000 points): Experience weightlessness by traveling in a specially outfitted jet aircraft that is used to train astronauts to work and test equipment in a weightless environment.
- Edge of Space Flight (3,000,000 points): Fly in a MiG-25 supersonic jet at up to two-and-one-half times the speed of sound (Mach 2.5) and above 80,000 feet, where one can see the curvature of the Earth and the blackness of space.
- Sub-Orbital Space Flight (20,000,000 points): Reserve your seat now for a ride aboard a sub-orbital spacecraft that will climb to an altitude of 62 miles, expose you to experience several minutes of weightlessness and treat you to Earth views from space.
Operations are based at various space and aviation facilities around the world, including the formerly top-secret Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center in Star City, Russia. Packages include accommodations, as well as tours and onsite training.
"We are very excited to offer our space experiences programs through American Express. Our mission at Space Adventures is to open the space frontier to private citizens. With this partnership, we're doing just that," said Eric Anderson, president and CEO of Space Adventures. "There are few things that are more exhilarating than the feeling of weightlessness or seeing the curvature of Earth and the blackness of space while traveling at two times the speed of sound.

Young Blood
What I want
More News from Luis Miguel R. Kalagayan
I want Mother Nature to be destroyed and to be screwed. I want animals to rot in hell.
I want cigarette smoke to fill the lungs of every child. I want the polar ice caps to melt like ice cream under a hot summer sun.
If it's not too much to ask, I'd also want to use synthetics and chemicals to smear the face of the earth, so as to make a plastered harlot out of Mother Nature.
You must be thinking: "What the hell is up with this guy? Who in their sane mind would want such turmoil to cross our world?" Well, if you're thinking that, then you're actually being hypocritical. Because in fact and oblivious to reality, your daily actions contribute to the fulfillment of these seemingly shocking declarations.
I will not go on and ramble about how we should reuse, reduce, recycle and all that. Almost everyone already knows about these preventive measures, yet you hardheads can never seem to make a habit out of such concepts. I am at least hoping that I can soften up your heads and nail the message home.
In case you haven't noticed, we aren't conducting these "Save the environment" campaigns for ourselves, but for the future. We humans are just apparently so naïve that we only act upon things that presently affect us. We think the future is so distant, and so it's not our natural impulse to be mindful of its state. Let me remind you, though, that we are the ones responsible for paving the way to the future. As such, we must fight off those who pose a threat to Mother Nature.
Easy, right? Wrong. How can one go about arresting his own prodigal son? How can Dr. Victor Frankenstein ever destroy his creature? Even though technology has helped fulfill the wishes I stated earlier, technology has also uplifted our lives in ways we could never have imagined.
Yes, in itself technology has never been a bad thing; it's just its byproducts that do harm to our environment.
With the ever-rising levels of technology and amazing scientific advancements, you can't deny that life is now pretty well off and going great! And while it may seem as if technology will never stop evolving, much to the point of seemingly being too fast and adding to the wastes afflicting the world, you should not fret. If evolution can't be stopped, who's to say that evolution must always produce waste products? There are ways by which technology can evolve in favor of the environment. Hybrid cars, windmills, and the utilization of renewable resources are just some of the few discovered ways that provide energy while minimizing waste.
Having said this, I must also say that the research studies on renewable energy are truly a fine detour—a freshly paved road to a better future, a future wherein technology and Mother Nature work hand in hand.
I want Mother Nature to be lively and to be prosperous. I want animals to flourish and be healthy.
I want fresh air to fill the lungs of every child. I want the polar ice caps to float in blue oceans in all their glory.
If it's not too much to ask, I'd also want to use organic materials and renewable resources, so as to make a chaste beauty out of Mother Nature.
You must be thinking: "What the hell is up with this guy? Who in their sane mind would NOT want such abundance to cross our world?" Well, if you're thinking this, then you're probably looking with great favor on these statements. In hopeful foresight, your daily actions will contribute to the fulfillment of these wishes.

Been looking forever. Finally. Engine is pretty much toast

Oil out the breather tube into the airbox. So much so, the PO attached the end to a bottle of coke and drove it around. After a couple of checkouts by local dealers, Max BMW gives him the bad news of something serious. My guess is they said a new engine or work totaling close close to that. They did a decent diagnosis with compression test and leakdown test.
We started it and checked it out as well and found it may have less power that the other 650's we've rode, had some sort of clanking unlike the cam chain and a lot of oil coming out when starting. It decreased to a mist when driving.
All in all the bike is in supergreat shape and we're psyched. I have a Dakar and a rebuilt 650GS so we're up to a posse if this thing gets running. We figure we have a few thou to spend and still make money on it so its all downhill from here. (uh huh)

This came in one of the press releases last week, but I'm just getting to it now. It's a test of one of the G-Form cases. I'm a little skeptical of this but you have to check the video out. It is a great HD video.
The StumpStand looks like it came out of IKEA, but it's designed and built in the USA. The solidly built tablet stand is solid angled chunk of rubber with special grooves to accommodate an iPad in a three different angles. It weighs just over half a pound and is available in assorted colors such as black, white, yellow, blue, red, purple and green!
Frankly, some products at CES suck, but in the case of the Sea Sucker (www.AppleMount.com) that's a good thing! If you want to mount your iPhone or iPad from your car windshield or dashboard, for GPS purposes, or perhaps on a side window for the kids in the backseat, you might be concerned about a suction cup that will eventually give way and drop your valuable device.
Apple does a lot of things right, but an integrated lanyard clip might have helped to prevent dropped (and broken) phones. Then again, AppleCare revenue might be an incentive not to. Enter EK Ekcessories who have been making rugged retention accessories for outdoor, recreation and security since 1985 in Utah. They are addressing the iOS market with a line of rugged leashes that use a 30pin dock connector to attach to the iPhone, iPod touch or even an iPad!
The Pong ipad 2 case is one of the world's only cases which protects the user from radiation. This does not affect the 3G performance for the device in any way. The Pong iPad case is optimized for the 3G user as well as Wi-Fi. Some users may be concerned with radiation exposure from using the iPad or any idevice. If that is a concern here is a way to protect you and maintain performance.
Lots of vendors here at CES are showing off their latest case products. Same thing goes for iPad mounts for home, office and even in-car gear. Some vendors offer both, but I have yet to find any that integrate and offer the flexibility found in inCarBite's line of mounting and case gear. You can mount your iPad on the headrest of your car to keep the kids quiet during the ride home, eject the case (and iPad), and then mount into a dock bolted under your kitchen cabinet to enjoy your favorite show while making dinner!

let's face it; the iPad isn't a bargain item. It is expensive, and it requires protection if you want it to last a while. To get more value out of your device, however, sometimes you need to cough up a few more dollars and invest in some awesome gear. That's where we come in. We don't want you spending your precious money on worthless items. Here are our picks and reviews of the best iPad accessories for 2011. Read on to find the absolute best gear and best ipad accessories.
Most iPad owners purchase a case to protect their device. The type of case you choose depends on how you'll be using your iPad and how much you want to spend. In this section we look at a variety of the best protective iPad accessories: cases, bags, shells, and sleeves, as well as stands. The descriptions not only include the list price but also the price on Amazon, so that you can get a sense for how much they're selling for through other online retailers.
New audio accessories are constantly evolving for all iOS devices, and starting earlier this year at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), there were some great ones in action. Most prefer something compact, with good quality sound, and affordability. An integrated app is nice, but not crucial.
The Bose MIE2i wired mobile headset
are perfect examples of earbuds that are compact, have great sound quailty and are affordable. They are highly rated for both sound quality and comfort. They come with three sizes of StayHear silicon tips and an answer/end button on the inline microphone. The reviews say the quality of sound is tops. Note that these are standard earbuds - no noise-isolating to block unwanted sound.
A comparison of these earbuds and other great accessories are in the 2011 Best Gear article.

Respond to Review of Lilipad Cafe
by Posi Britt
Review: This place was amazing! I had already looked up ideas on here before we checked it out but I wasn't prepared for its awesomeness. There was stuff on the menu that actually said the words "Vegan". I ordered the lasagna, and my husband got the tempeh peanut sandwich thing. Both were seriously huge and worth every non expensive penny! The only thing that I wasn't stoked on was that they close at 3pm and they seemed busy. Pretty helpful though and neat atmosphere.

A few days ago, I watched a TV news advisory from an unlikely source - Meralco.
For those who were not able to see it, the advisory explained the reasons behind this month's rate adjustment. Complementing that, a tips segment was added, to help inform viewers on how they could better manage their energy consumption.
This was a bold move from the utility firm considering that their monthly advisory debuted with a rate increase. I have been a corporate and marketing communications professional for many years, and instincts would tell me that it is rather risky for a company to issue a statement that could antagonize the public when it could just have kept mum on the issue, which is what other utilities do.
But what Meralco did was unthinkable (in a good and noble sense). Instead of keeping quiet, it volunteered to announce that there would be an upward adjustment in the bills of electricity customers.
As a former practicing professional in the communications business, I thought this may be an interesting case study for students of communication. On second thought, Meralco may have actually done not only the right thing, but the smart thing as well.
By being forthright with its customers on the issue, Meralco proved its willingness to be accountable and transparent to its customers. More than that, though, it gave the power company an opportunity to educate its customers.
Upon watching the advisory, I learned that the rate adjustment for June was due to an increase in the generation and transmission charges, and that our payments for these accrue to the generation and transmission companies.
As said earlier, Meralco didn't stop at just mentioning the rate adjustment - they gave very practical and helpful tips, too. In the advisory I saw, they plugged the Meralco app called the Meralco Virtual Engine or MOVE, which is an app suite containing various apps, one of which is what they call the Appliance Calculator or AppCal.
Through the AppCal, I have learned that customers may be able to compute for the consumption of an appliance on an hourly, weekly, or monthly basis.
I have actually downloaded the free MOVE app and asked the other members of our household do the same, so together, we could better monitor our power consumption at home. I would advise you my dear readers as well.
Perhaps, other utility companies may want to look into doing something similar for their customers. The Meralco advisory is a breath of fresh air in that it gives customers first-hand information on things they should know. In that way, they are not left confused amidst differing, and sometimes conflicting, reports from various sources. Moreover, the likes of the Meralco advisory empowers customers to make informed decisions. As an old adage goes, information is king. And it seems Meralco knows that to them, indeed, the customer is King.

Football: Brazil goalkeeper Cesar ready to repay Scolari's faith
Published on May 28, 2014 6:11 AM
TERESOPOLIS, Brazil (AFP) - Brazil goalkeeper Julio Cesar insisted on Tuesday he will silence any doubters who believe coach Luiz Felipe Scolari should consider looking beyond him as the World Cup hosts target a sixth triumph.
"I come in with my suitability in the position questioned, but happy and 100 per cent ready," the 34-year-old said as he settled into Brazil's tournament headquarters at Granja Comary an hour outside the hubbub of Rio.
The former Inter Milan shot-stopper has been in the limelight with Scolari insisting throughout the build up to the competition that he will definitely be first choice between the sticks.
But Cesar in January had to resort to resurrecting his club career in the unlikely surroundings of Toronto after months spent in the wilderness following relegation from the English Premier League with Queens Park Rangers.
