Sure you want Wang in a closing situation? Peralta did a great job and Davis had a homer. All is good. Nice rotation setting up.Hide replies
I'm guessing they were just getting him some work in a pressure situation. Don't see it happening once the games count.
No walks for Peralta! Love it.
Didn't see if Wang had a stinker or a couple of lucky hits and a blast double, but something that could be a concern now that he was told about his standing this morning...
The thornburg HR is cause for concern more to me... this kid really gives up HRs and that's such a backbreaker in a bullpen arm...Hide replies
Wang didn't fool anybody today. All 7 batters hit the ball somewhere, with the first 4 getting hits! It wasn't pretty. Although I think he will be alright, it's not something we want to see during the regular season.
Texas Rangers, in need of 2B help, looking at #Brewers Rickie Weeks today. Money ($11 M) could be obstacle. #Brewers would have to pay some.
Not one of Wang's better days. Hopefully he got the wildness out of his system and is raring to go come next Monday.

Not loving the update!
from Portland, or
on 3/26/2015
My child really loved the jr hydrospex, but he is not loving the jr hydrospex 2. The lens are slightly bigger and the adjustment push button mechanism doesn't allow for him to be a half size. They are either too tight or too loose. I'll probably re order the original.

favorite goggles
swimmin' nana
from Bethlehem, NY
on 1/19/2015
I love these goggles. I'm a lap swimmer and water fitness instructor, as well as a swim instructor for adults. I recommend these hands down. I observe that many adults wear goggles that are too big - these fit most folks perfectly. Personally, I find that their fit is excellent; they never leak. My only complaint is that the lenses seem to get cloudy fairly quickly and the gasket (I prefer clear) becomes discolored within a few months.
perfect fit !
from Milford, PA
on 1/18/2015
perfect for my small 8 year old.. Perfect fit..Easy Adjusting.comfortable goggles. .All around my son's favorite....Should have purchased an extra pair
Do not stay tight.
Diana K.
from Riverside, CT
on 5/29/2013
I absolutely abhor these goggles. They do NOT stay tight and are very annoying!
different fit from Hydrospex Classic
from NJ
on 4/11/2013
I purchased these thinking they would be an update to the Jr. Hydrospex Classic with the same fit, but the fit was very different. They seemed narrower around the nose and leaked badly at the temple area.
"new style"
from Bangor, Maine
on 11/26/2012
The new style no longer fits my face. I also don't like the strap connection to the goggles. Go back to the old style please!

I bougth this for my 7 years old son. it is too big for a 7 years old kid even though it says Jr.
water seaps in when he swims...
he loves the color of this google but how good is the color if he can not wear it
It's a good product but not for us
from Central NJ
on 5/29/2012
These are good goggles, one of our team mates recommended them but they don't fit my kiddo's small head very well.
Not expensive, comfortable fit
Lauren B.
from Portland, OR
on 2/12/2012
nice fit for small eyes. For the price they are good and wash wtih soap and water after swimming.
Poor quAlity
from Weymouth mA
on 11/23/2011
I bought these for my 6 year old for swim team. They gap At the eyes and hurt the bridge of her nose. Unfortunately I can't return them, be sued they are worm. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY
not a good fit
Jean B.
from Smithtown, NY
on 10/26/2011
I use goggles 2 x's per week for 1.5 hr swim practice. I usually buy jr size of this brand. This style leaks unless I make them tight enough to give me a headache. Style was redisigned. I am back to using my older model which is discolored but leak free.
My son's favorite goggles
Christine G.
from Sylvania, OH

too big for girl's face
Speedo Hydrospex 2 Jr.
RSO Swim Team
from Oxford MS
on 9/21/2011
This goggle was our favorite for several years. Speedo changed the design of the sides last year and they are not the same. We have trouble with them staying tight and they always come off when diving in. This is a huge problem when we have swim meets. The kids goggles fall down below their chin no matter how tight we get them. We have even tried to double cap and tie them at the sides. Wish Speedo would not have changed design. Now we need to find google that will stay on.
Jiayue Z.
from Houston, TX
on 9/20/2011
Good to use
I can see!
Elizabeth L.
from Norridgewock, ME
on 9/11/2011
I have always had trouble getting goggles that fit. I am a small person and cannot wear the adult size. These fit the bill, although I am still getting used to them. I lap swim several days a week to exercise my aging body. Having to stop to adjust my old goggles every lap or so was getting to be a nuisance. I am greatly relieved to be able to see again.
The best goggles for little swimmers
Jennifer R.
from Shreveport, LA
on 9/7/2011
Stays on and is easy for my 5 year old to put on and take off. Great for beginning swimmers.
Good fit
Maryellen B.
from Longmeadow, MA
on 11/2/2010
Daughter has been wearing this from age 8 to 13. The style fits her eyes well. Can't speak to the strap because she removes it and uses a bungee cord.

My DH family is so dysfunctional, it makes me so sad for my son. My DH's mom died 3 yrs ago, a year ago 2 of his brothers went to prison for drugs, 1 brother lived out of a hotel with his 2 kids while his baby momma was out doing god knows what with gos knows who. And his last brother is the biggest idiot i have ever met in my life. None of them can hold a job. My 2 step kids at least have there moms side of the family. My son only has my family. I just wish it was easier. Sometimes i hate myself for doing this to my son.

New Haven — A New London man pleaded guilty Tuesday in federal court to committing a violent crime in the aid of racketeering, which stemmed from the September 2012 homicide of 36-year-old Javier Reyes.
Jose Rosado Jr., 21, also known as "Gugie," pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Vanessa L. London and faces a maximum prison term of 20 years when he is sentenced later this year.
According to court documents and statements made in court, Rosado was an associate of Oscar "Tato" Valentin of New London, who operated and managed a narcotics distribution enterprise at the "Green Garages," a series of garage bays located as 12/14 Walker St. in New London.
In the summer of 2011, Valentin was the intended victim of a murder-for-hire plot orchestrated by former members of his enterprise in an attempt to take over narcotics distribution at the Green Garages.
Last October, Elmer Melendez, 30, of New London was sentenced to three years in prison for conspiring to kill Valentin in August 2011. According to the state, Antonio "Wilson" Peña of New London had arranged to pay Melendez and Gerardo Carrillo a total of $15,000 to kill Valentin, a rival drug dealer who has since been charged with federal drug distribution crimes and is incarcerated.
Peña was previously sentenced to eight years in prison. Carrillo was also sentenced to three years in prison.
Melendez had planned to distract Valentin with a gun while Carrillo fatally stabbed him. The men had gathered clothing, a knife and gun and were headed to Valentin's apartment when they were stopped by New London police, who had been tipped off by an informant.
Peña's brother-in-law, Reyes, was fatally stabbed at the Huntington Street apartment where Peña's family resides. Court officials have said Valentin, the intended target of the murder-for-hire scheme, was suspected in that homicide.
Video surveillance at the time of the attack shows Rosado carrying a bat, and another individual, creeping toward Reyes and then running away from him about 15 seconds later.
Valentin , Nestor "Ernie" Pagan, 31, and Andrew "Papo" Aviles, 26, all from New London, were indicted by a federal grand jury in March in connection with this case.
This matter is being investigated by the New London Police Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, with the assistance of the Connecticut State Police's Eastern District Major Crime Squad, the Connecticut Department of Correction, Homeland Security Investigations, the U.S. Secret Service and the New London State's Attorney's Office. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Anthony Kaplan and Sarah Karwan, and New London County's Senior Assistant State's Attorney Paul Narducci.

99.3% of patients would refer friends and family to us.
Very professional and friendly.
Very patient with my son, precise, and spot on! We are wired for the future! Price comparable to elsewhere--thank you...
I have been a patient of Dr Cook's for years. He has a wonderful, caring, staff and I would recommend this office to friends.
Very friendly office personnel, as well as dentist Dr Cook!
Very thorough cleaning, as always, and even some tips to help me continue improving care of my teeth.
Looking for a family-friendly dentist?
Choose Dr. Cook!
I chipped a tooth on Friday morning and called the office. They managed to see me at 11:30 and repaired my tooth. It looks just like it did before I chipped it. I was out of the office by 12:15. Thank you Dr. Cook!
Excellend dental care in a very friendly and relaxing environment!!! The best of the best.
My experience was fantastic-everyone is very friendly and welcoming. Dr Cook gave me the most extensive dental exam I've ever had. And we talked about several options to improve my smile-which I'm looking forward to taking advantage of.
Had my teeth cleaned. Cleaning went smoothly and had no problems.
I had chipped a front tooth during the weekend and was able to make an "emergency" appointment Monday morning to get it repaired. It only took 25 minutes and when I looked at the results you couldn't tell that it wasn't my natural tooth. Unbelievably great work. I was just amazed.
Have been coming here for 16 years. Never had a complaint. These people are like family :)
Everyone at the office is great!

NEWARK, N.J. -- After being held out of practice for a week because of an illness, Denver Broncos kicker Matt Prater made his first public appearance Tuesday since the team arrived to the New York/New Jersey area.
Prater participated in the team's media day event at the Prudential Center and is on track to practice Wednesday when the Broncos conduct a workout at the New York Jets' practice facility. Prater said he felt "a lot better" and spent his time Tuesday answering the usual questions for kickers about potential Super Bowl game winners and bad weather for Sunday's Super Bowl XLVIII.
Asked how weather might affect the game, Prater said, "You know me. I'm not a huge thinker about too much. It's just one of those things where I think no matter what, if you hit the ball well, it's going to go straight and it's going to go far. I'm not worried about it too much. I don't think it's going to be too windy. If anything, the wind affects it more than the cold. As long as it's not too windy, I think we'll be fine to get the touchbacks, hopefully limit their return game."
The Broncos held Prater out of practice Thursday, Friday and Saturday, in part, for Prater to recover and to avoid passing the illness to other players a week out from the title game. Broncos coach John Fox has said repeatedly Prater would be fine for Sunday's game.
Prater led the NFL in touchbacks on kickoffs during the regular season and was 25-of-26 on field goal attempts, including 6-of-7 from 50 or more yards, including an NFL record 64-yarder Dec. 8 against the Tennessee Titans.
Prater is 5-of-6 in the postseason, including a 4-of-4 performance in the AFC Championship Game last Sunday.

For my second visit to Guadalajara, I thought I'd give the most famous historical hotel a go, and it did not disappoint overall. We got a good deal and I'd say it was worth it. Its location can't be beat - right in the city centre. Although the area can get a little dodgy at night, the hotel felt secure, and it was good that there was a taxi rank just outside, so we didn't need to wander around looking for one
The rooms were spacious and clean, as was the bathroom. Wifi worked well and the staff were friendly and spent time telling us what to see around the city.
We didn't have the breakfast as it was a little expensive, given that you can get traditional Mexican food within the same block for a fraction of the price. Overall, I would recommend it if you can get a good price.

I need some expert advice. I need to model different user types for my web application and am not sure how to best model this. Basically the users for the application are therapists. Essentially there are the users of the application. So do I create a therapist table/domain object and a therapistDAO, or do I keep a generic user table/userDAO instead and use role types/names instead? It seems strange having a generic user table and DAO methods always referring to the userTable, when all queries will be against the therapist table. For example, a method to return all therapy types offered by a therapist will be findTherapyTypes(therapist, therapistId). However, if I use user tables and User domain object the method would be the findTherapyTypes(User, userId) which doesnt seem right. If I use a generic User domain object, then it will have a List of therapytypes which doesnt seem correct as it could in the future a different user type lets say Patient, and in this case the List of therapytyppes would always be null as it wouldnt apply.
In the future there might be other user types, e.g. Patient or Customer those who leave feedback based on treatments received by therapists?
I will be using Hibernate so was thinking of using inheritance mapping for the user different user types having a therapist class extend a base User class and implement a User interface with common properties such as firstname, surname etc.
Any feedback would be much appreciated :) :)
thanks Mark

Murderers in Mausoleums: Riding the Back Roads of Empire Between Moscow and Beijingby Jeffrey Tayler
Synopses & Reviews
"Tayler (Siberian Dawn) takes readers on an extraordinary adventure across the largest landmass on earth, from Russia through the Caucasus into South Ossetia and Georgia, on to Central Asia and Kazakhstan, and across Xinjiang and Mongolia. Equal parts history, politics, economic theory and anthropology, he brings into sharp focus the ordinary lives behind the news headlines. Of particular interest are two recurring discoveries he makes — replacing totalitarian dictators with 'democratically elected' (often U.S.-backed) leaders opens the door to enormous corruption, and that where there is electricity, there is always a disco. Tayler marshals hundreds of years of history, from the conquests of Genghis Khan through the dislocation caused by WWI and WWII to the Chinese Communist revolution and the glossy, urban China of today. While the author's approach to exploration is haphazard at times, his impressive ability to build instant rapport and cull local knowledge in a remarkably short span of time gives his journey steady momentum. Tayler conveys his encounters in prose that is as richly textured as the stories he gathers in some of the remotest places imaginable." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
Travel books bring vicarious excitement, enabling you to go places without packing suitcases or applying for visas, but you still have to decide on a route. You can choose Bill Bryson's trail and laugh the entire way, or you can take one of Jeffrey Tayler's daring paths, which sting the nostrils and chill the soul. Whether crossing the Sahara (in "Angry Wind") or rafting down Siberia's Lena River (in... Washington Post Book Review (read the entire Washington Post review) "River of No Reprieve"), Tayler does not see the mirth in faraway places so much as he sees the horror — and the glory — in them. "Murderers in Mausoleums," his sixth book, is unmistakably Tayler. He travels from Moscow to Beijing, passing through the Kalashnikov-littered Caucasus Mountains and energy-rich Central Asia. Corrupt cops, insolent officials, pop-crazed kids and populations seething with frustration line the route. It is little wonder that democracy has failed to take hold here, he muses: This land belonged to some of the bloodiest tyrants in history — Genghis Khan, Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong — and their authoritarian traditions live on. Tayler worries that our failure to understand this vast region leaves us poorly prepared to respond to a budding Eurasian alliance that could "soon threaten Western security" by controlling vast oil and gas reserves and using the profits to modernize its military and buy up Western assets. The West, he believes, has ignited another Great Game, the 19th-century competition between the British and Russian empires for primacy in Central Asia. With that explanation, Tayler sets off to take the pulse of ordinary people, beginning with the Cossacks of Rostov-on-Don in southern Russia and continuing across the Caucasus Mountains. He takes us into the predominantly Muslim regions of Kabardino-Balkaria and Dagestan before crossing the Russian border into the post-Soviet republic of Kazakhstan, skirting the Aral Sea and traveling through Kyrgyzstan into China, where he visits with restive Uygurs and resists entreaties to worship the spirit of Genghis Khan in a Mongolian yurt. Despite enormous variations in their traditions and beliefs, all the Eurasians he encounters seem uniformly disgusted with their governments. At the same time, they are disillusioned with the alternatives that Western capitalism has offered them. As one acquaintance in the Caucasus exclaimed vehemently, "What has the West given us, what? Pornography and sex ... Nobody believes in liberals anymore. They just want to create problems and get rich off other people's grief." Tayler takes very little luggage with him aside from the essentials once recommended by Alexander Solzhenitsyn: "Own only what you can carry with you; know language; know countries; know people. Let your memory be your travel bag." An American expatriate based in Russia since 1993, Tayler has traveled Eurasia's back roads extensively over the years, using his fluency in Russian and Turkish. As he explained in an interview for Vagabonding, a blog for travelers: "Russia has made me a writer ... given me a wife, and at times nearly cost me my life." Perhaps his intimate knowledge of the region is the reason why Tayler brings such fervor to both his craft and his subject. Inspired by Russian literature, including Soviet-era tape recordings of Russians reading the poems of Mikhail Lermontov, he writes, "The combination of their impassioned recitals and the poet's concise yet dreamy verbiage did much to establish Russian, tender, evocative and euphonious, as the dialect of my heart." At times he displays poetic flair. On reaching the Caspian Sea, in the Dagestani city of Makhachkala, he writes: "I awoke to the taunting, boisterous yelps of seagulls. Drafts warm and briny teased my window's curtains, gauzy yellow filters irradiated by the southern sun and spangled with glints from the sea, which spread glaucous and frothy beyond the minarets and apartment buildings and satellite disks." The intensity of his interest also leads to amusing insights. "In Russia," Tayler notes, "rules abound and they must be publicly posted, even if only to be flagrantly violated." Eurasians have difficulty refusing a drink, he explains, because their companions will suspect they are staying sober so they can remember what is said and report it to the authorities in the morning. "Russia's Hobbesian human jungles hone ruthless talents of survival," he writes, "and its poverty anneals the masses to discomfort; whereas Westerners, or so Russians think, are spoiled, fragile, and spineless." As articulate as these assessments are, we still want to know what drives these Eurasians to get up every day and go about the business of living and loving, sometimes with a tenderness that surprises even those most attuned to the culture. As I read parts of Tayler's story, I wanted to learn more that might illuminate why these people are able to retain their sense of irony and humor even while most live in desperate circumstances. "Murderers in Mausoleums" brims with authenticity, but it's best read as a travel journal and not as a predictor of the region's geopolitical future. After a few incongruous pages of history and geopolitics, Tayler takes you on a trip you would never make otherwise. And when it comes to an end, you have had a tour of Eurasia's human and physical landscape, which is still magical, if — thanks to this book — a little less mysterious.

(hide most of this review)
A gripping journey through some of the planets most remote and challenging terrain and its peoples, in search of why democracy has yet to thrive in lands it seemed so recently ready to overtake Across the largest landmass on earth, in lands once conquered by Genghis Khan and exploited by ruthless Communist regimes, autocratic and dictatorial states are again arising, growing wealthy on petrodollars and low-cost manufacturing.
More and more, they are challenging theWest.
Media reports focus on developments in Moscow and Beijing, but the peoples inhabiting the vast expanses in between remain mostly unseen and unheard, their daily lives and aspirations scarcely better known to us now than they were in ColdWar days.Tayler finds, among many others, a dissident Cossack advocating mass beheadings, a Muslim in Kashgar calling on the United States to bomb Beijing, and Chinese youths in Urumqi desiring nothing more than sex, booze, and rock n roll—all while confronting over and over again the contradiction of people who value liberty and the free market but idealize tyrants who oppose both.
From the steppes of southern Russia to the conflict-ridden Caucasus Mountains to the deserts of central Asia and northern China,Tayler shows that our maps have gone blank at the worst possible time.

Cyber Shops New Chapter In Book Business Online Bookstores Signal Big Change For Chains, Independents
The book business online is becoming as crowded as it has in the bricks and mortar arena. Huge national chains are setting up shop, independents are struggling to compete.
But the changes go deeper than that.
Amazon.com of Seattle basically cornered the market when it first began selling via the World Wide Web in July 1995. It wasn't too long before smaller, independent bookstores like Powell's in Portland put up their own Web sites to keep from losing their wired customers.
Then came Book Stacks Unlimited, known online as books.com, which started a price war by knocking 40 percent off the suggested retail prices for all books on The New York Times best-seller list. Tiny Expressbooks.com of Granada Hills, Calif., went one better, matching the best-seller discount and offering 33 percent discount on all hardbacks, 22 percent on all paperbacks.
This month, industry giant Barnes & Noble waded into the fray with a one-two punch, first suing Amazon over its claim to be the largest online bookseller, then launching its Web site the next day.
And if that weren't enough, the other 800-pound gorilla in the industry, Borders Books, plans to go online soon.
Not that anyone's making any money yet. Despite its showy initial public stock offering two weeks ago, Amazon spent about $20 million last year to sell $15 million worth of books, noted Bill Bass, a senior analyst with Forrester Research in Cambridge, Mass.
And while Amazon has been the big fish in a small pond, that's changing quickly.
"Barnes & Noble is a $2.4 billion bookseller. The biggest Internet book selling site is a gnat compared to them or to Borders," said Bass.
For small presses, online bookstores are a godsend. They allow publishers with tiny lists to get descriptive information about their titles out to readers.
Take China Books, a small, family-owned publisher of books based in San Francisco. Their advertising budget is minuscule. The Web helps customers find them who didn't even know they - or their books - existed.
"If you type in China and tea, or even tea, our book "All The Tea in China" shows up. Customers would never see it in their local bookstore, but when they find it online they buy it," said sales manager Greg Jones.
But the expansion online is another heavy blow to small, independent booksellers, who already must compete with huge mega-stores that entice customers with big inventories and deep discounts and now face the same online.
While online booksellers are clamoring for market share, there are many benefits for those customers willing to shop over the Internet. Price is a major advantage of buying online, with booksellers often offering cheaper rates, despite the added costs of shipping.
Online bookselling has given power and breadth of choice back to the reader, something that many feared might be lost, as the chains tend to concentrate on best sellers. It's also giving publishers a way to reach readers directly.
Almost every bookseller online provides access to the entire Books In Print database. Type in an author, a subject or even part of a title and a list of books pops up. Find the one you want, click on it and you're only a credit card number away from having it arrive by mail in 3-4 days.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by lilarodrigues Got to be one of the best FP dresses I own. I absolutely love this dress I mean its AMAZING! I wish I could get them all. I wore this dress out for a party and everyone was asking me where I got it and complimented on how well I looked. I got the XS because I knew it would stretch and since I am a size 6-8 in dresses I chose the XS. What I also love about this dress is that it is amazing for short girls I am 5'2 and this dress fit perfectly above the knees and not below. FP you guys have outdone yourselves with this one. Girls if you love it like I did get it! 4.2.2014

I hope you're having a wonderful week and are gearing up for a great holiday weekend. I can't believe it's almost the 4th of July - it's been far too wet and rainy around here, and I feel like summer hasn't gotten into full swing yet. Bring on the sun already!
You may remember that I quit my corporate job of over 20 years back in 2013, to stay home and pursue the things that I love (for which I am eternally grateful), and in my excitement, I hit local garage sales, scooping up furniture pieces to redo. One of those pieces is this desk. And yes, I've worked on it, but then procrastinated, worked, procrastinated. You get the idea. I am the Procrastination Princess sometimes.
The desk was pink, and pretty beat up, with the paint chipping all over it.
Underneath the pink paint, there was green paint, so I figured the best way to redo it would be to strip the paint and get down to the bare wood. This is where the procrastination took hold. I hate stripping furniture. You can see the detail work around the drawers, so it made it even more tedious.
It was also rocking out some vintage hardware.
You can see where I began stripping the paint this photo (along with my garage sale hoard). Hot mess.
I'm happy to report that this desk is finally done. Originally, I was going to put it in my daughter's room, but she has inherited my son's old desk, and the curves of this desk don't really work with her room, so I'm selling it.
I'm really pleased with how it turned out, even though it took, um, two years.
I added some mint green glass pulls from D. Lawless Hardware. They are the icing on the cake for this desk.
The top of this desk was in rough shape, and when I went to paint it, you could really see the imperfections.
Enter my new favorite wood grain filler - Faux Effects Master Finishing Medium.
It's super easy to work with and sand smooth. I might have to give it a try on some oak cabinets and see how it works on hiding the grain. I think it could be a great tool to add to my painting arsenal for that very purpose.
You can see how nice and smooth the top of the desk looks now. Great stuff!
As for paint, I used Benjamin Moore's Advance paint in White Dove for the base, and General Finishes Milk Paint in Lamp Black on the top, with a couple of coats of poly to help it hold up against wear and tear. I'm really loving the Milk Paint - it's easy to work with and gives a really nice finish.
There you have it! Project complete!

The Positive: The Red Roof Inn sign is very high and very well lit. The linens on the bumpy and uncomfortable bed were clean. Tiny soaps were provided.
The Reality: There weren't many guests when we arrived at midnight; okay so maybe it will be quiet and we will get a better room--wrong. We were on the interstate side so the noise was pretty loud; good thing the very old AC was noisy enough to mask the traffic noise. We checked in too late to bother with another motel so I thought for the price we could live with it.
The moldy smell permeated the entire room. We immediately went to the 24 hour WalMart to purchase a pricy room deodorizer. I sprayed every surface but the smell overwhelmed the deodorizer.
When I went to the bathroom there were roaches scurrying around my feet! Too bad I didn't buy bug spray while at WalMart. I saw the cause of the moldy smell, there were many signs of water damage on the walls of the bathroom. I was concerned about breathing this mold and kept the bathroom door shut hoping to keep the smell contained. That didn't work.
I pulled down the spread to get in bed only to see LARGER roaches on the pillow! Good thing I had a pillow in the car.

I like how easy it is to use this scrub. I had mine for about a year (I didn't use that often and I kept it out of the bath so it stayed hard). It is pretty greasy so I don't use it before bed. I will buy it again.

I purchased this product with hopes that it would decrease the severity of my keratosis pilaris. I've had very severe keratosis pilaris on the back of my upper arms for years, and a much milder version around my calves/knees. After trying coconut oil for a while (which softened my skin a little but did nothing for the redness), I went to Lush to pick up a bar of Buffy.
My first impressions were that it had an odd smell- like a combination of coconut oil and strong lavender (among other things). The bar didn't smell terrible, but I wouldn't want it as an air freshener either. While the size I got was small, I'd read other reviews saying that it lasts quite a while and I should get my money's worth. Plus I didn't want to be stuck with an huge odd smelling yellow lump that did nothing for my skin. I was offered a $3 tin box to hold the bar, but decided that there were no real advantages to the tin. Also as a general warning- this product WILL melt in hot temperatures, so I don't advise you have it shipped out to you in the middle of summer or if you live near the equator.
The first time I used it, it was everything I thought (and read) it'd be. Very abrasive, smelly and oily at the same time. I hadn't thought it'd be possible that once applied to my skin, the smell would worsen--and not to mention the fact that it lingers for quite a while afterwards. It also melted a little while I using it in the shower, despite the fact that I wasn't using it under direct water contact. I also learned after a couple times that you need to rinse it off very very thoroughly after its application so you don't end up feeling like a stick of earthy-smelling butter after you get out of the shower.
It is indeed, very hydrating for my skin. The rough, dry patches behind my ankles were banished and now feel nice and smooth. Unfortunately, the high hopes for my upper arms were misplaced. While my arms feel slightly smoother, the red bumps are still quite evident. That being said, I've only used the bar for 2-3 weeks now. But sadly with a smell like that, I don't have much patience.
I probably won't buy it again just because I'm sure there's better ways to hydrate my skin without feeling like I've been dipped in Vaseline. To be fair it did its job, but it's by no means the miracle product that everyone claims it is (for me anyways). I don't even mind the abrasiveness since I've been exfoliating for years with other abrasive products, however there isn't much here to keep me interested. continued >>

I think this product is great but can be quite abrasive. The price is ok because this lasts quite a long time if you let it dry. Also, I don't use it everyday so it lasts even longer. I use this about 1-2 times a week and I've had the smaller side for a couple of months. I don't like this quite as much as I like Aqua Mirabilis. For me, The exfoliating bits are too big and not evenly distributed. The bar itself doesn't melt much on skin and doesn't moisturize as well as Aqua Mirabilis. The smell of Aqua Mirabilis is also better in my opinion. The smell is... different. I don't mind it that much so I'm ok with it. I might buy it again.
So, I've been trying Aqua Mirabilis also by LUSH and I think I like it better. Because of this, I took two lippie of.

What can I say? HG, HG, HG.
The smaller Buffy fits perfectly in the special metal LUSH tin. I keep the bar intact and rub it all over my body to exfoliate and moisturize. (NOTE: if you're not slicing it up for individual use, as many others seem to do, it's very important to let the product fully dry before placing it back in the tin.)
I don't find Buffy to be too rough on my skin, as most scrub brushes are, but I always use it under running water after my body wash (and often after shaving).
Yeah, Buffy's a bit greasy. Let the shower run for a few extra minutes to wash away the filmy mess, and have some patience after you towel off to let the moisturizing ingredients sink in. You'll end up with ridiculously smooth, soft, and glowing skin. No other combination of exfoliators and moisturizers accomplishes what this one product does, and the effects last a solid week for me, without needing to reach for any other lotion or body butter.
Smells like a long day at the beach ... Mmm. And lavender.
I get about 8 uses out of the smaller bar ... a solid 1.5 - 2 months of beautiful skin. Not the best value, but try this the next time you're getting ready for a special date and see if it doesn't completely win you over!

Omg... I used it for the first time... after an hour and my skin is still greasy, has not sunk into my skin at all! I had to use two paper towels to wipe it off :( I am so shocked.and i have really dry skin.
I don't think i can use this. Its so creamy and thick that it just doesn't absorb into my skin, I have to use a paper towel to wipe the grease off before i can put on my clothes. In the end it turned mouldy and i threw the whole bar out. I'll stick with aqua mirabillus which is amazing.
The scent is more herbally, nice but not fantastic.

As with many Lush products, Buffy does not come with any packaging which makes it a bit more effort to use. I chopped my bar into four and keep a quarter in a container near the shower so the rest doesn't melt. I usually use this after I have already washed with a shower gel, and rub it along my legs, arms and torso in circular strokes. It smells, like other reviewers have said, earthy, nutty and flowery and the smell lingers for a while after its been washed off. The exfoliating granules in the bar work wonders for scaly or rough skin, however, it does leave an oily film on the skin and you can actually see water from the shower beading on your skin because of the film. So be prepared for some residue, as it is a body butter and designed to moisturise. I think the oiliness soaks into the skin after about 10 mins from hopping out of the shower and leaves your skin wonderfully supple and smooth. What I like about Buffy is that is cuts out one step for me when I am too lazy to moisturise after showering and scrubbing (I normally use Dream Cream). If you give it a go and are put off by the oily feeling afterwards, don't be - you will get used to it and reap the benefits of soft and smooth skin!

This is a great product if you have keratosis pilaris. The exfoliation really helps keep the bumps on my arms under control. I can definitely tell when I have forgotten to use it for a few days. I step into the back of the shower to use it, so it stays out of the stream of water to keep the bar from melting. I just get my skin damp first and rub the bar lightly over. It is very abrasive, so you have to be careful. My legs get really itchy and dry during the winter and this really helps for that as well. It does feel a bit oily afterwards, but sinks in after a few minutes and is definitely worth it. It is expensive, but the best thing so far for keratosis that I've found. But if I hear of any other options, I might give them a try.

Buffy the backside slayer is a body butter/exfoliator that is to be used in the shower. You can apply to your wet skin, rinsse off and then it emparts a softness to the skin. This exfoliator is very abrasive. I used it on my arms and on my legs after shaving. I cut my bar into smaller pieces because I had read that it will melt easily. It did melt but not as much as I thought it would. I had to be gentle with this, it felt like it was ripping my skin off at first. After I rinsed off all the grittiness, I patted the areas dry with a towel. My skin felt so soft and smooth. I love it. I don't really get any strong smell from this, the smell to me, is faint. It has almost a medicinal smell but it quickly faded and all I was left with was soft skin.

This is fading and bricking around the edges but still has a deep core. The nose is lovel, probably more secondary than fruit now, but still very seductive. The palate is fully resolved, there's more fruit here but with plenty of tobacco and leather to go with it, there's a fine cut of acidity which could be a little stronger. The finish is medium length and just a little drying. I don't think it's likely to improve from here on, but could hold for a while if you wanted.
sumptuous blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (85%), Cabernet Franc (10%) and Sangiovese. Pure velvet at the palate with armonic hints of black ripe plums, sweet liquorice, grass tobacco, earth and leather. Smoothed tannins leave their way to a juicy rich nectar. Elegant and classy. Probably at its apogee a couple of years ago but still near its top. Medium-to-long finish with slightly bitter aftertaste. Note that starting from 2001 the Paleo is 100% made of Cabernet Franc
Went up against a 1998 Seavey Cabernet and the Paleo won hands down. Didn't take detailed notes, but out of nine aged wines from the US, France and Italy, this was the wine of the night.
Perfect bottle.
Amazing nose (see previous TN's for details).
Gave this a long decant, and indeed very Bordeaux like.
Very special herbal notes on the nose.
A really fine wine!
Deep ruby, not showing its 15 years. Super intense nose not overripe of dark fruits - blackberry, plum, blackcurrant - and red fruit - mainly cherry, rhubarb, carob. Herbal - cutted grass, green pepper, tobacco. Spiced - cloves, mocha. Some balsamic note. At palate the intensity corresponds to a great structure, with tannins very finelyintegrated after the aging, prominent acidity, and a huge polyalcoholic load to balance it. Harmonic wine. Long finish. Great wine from a super vintage. At peak now.
