Beauty Boost Overnight Radiance Cream is an emollient moisturizer with a silky texture and a nice blend of antioxidants, ingredients that mimic the structure of skin, and anti-irritants. What a shame the jar packaging renders this all for naught.
An intense emollient night cream that not only provides moisture but also firms, soothes and brightens skin as you sleep.

American Beauty At-A-Glance
Strengths: Many state-of-the-art moisturizers, though they're not without their issues; Lauder's formulary expertise in the moisturizer category at a lower price point than most other Lauder-owned lines; good foundations without sunscreen; good powders; excellent powder blush; several lip-enhancing options, including a remarkable long-wearing lip paint.
Weaknesses: Problematic toners, lackluster scrub, sunscreens whose UVA-protecting ingredients are present but at questionable amounts. No skin-lightening, AHA, BHA, or effective anti-acne products; foundations and lipsticks with sunscreen that lacks sufficient UVA protection; poor concealer.
American Beauty Skin Care aspires to resemble a blend between the Estee Lauder and Clinique makeup and skin-care lines, and-sort of-succeeds. Just one look at the packaging, brochures, and ads and you'll know what we mean. Yet a mix of poor packaging and relatively lackluster formulations doesn't instill much confidence. From all appearances, Lauder was trying to create the concept of department-store quality with mass-market pricing. The number of products in jar packaging is just out of touch with reality, especially when you consider the well-established facts surrounding ingredient instability when formulations are exposed to air or light. These formulas won't deliver for very long in containers that aren't airtight. Yes, the jar packaging does have a Lauderesque look, but that won't keep the antioxidants stable, or the plant extracts or cell-communicating ingredients around for very long after opening, and that's what counts for your skin.
Several different moisturizers, each with varying claims (anti-aging, antiwrinkle, hydrating), are available, but beyond the different names the basic configuration of the specialty ingredients is almost the same from product to product, with only minor variations. Essentially, regardless of the claim and the product, you are applying the same ingredients to your skin.
Then there's this good question: Why do the American Beauty skin-care products contain fragrance and coloring agents, while the Good Skin products don't? (Good Skin is also part of the Lauder family, reviewed elsewhere in this book.) Lauder can't seem to make up its corporate mind about this, because among their different product lines they continually vacillate on this issue. Just to set the record straight, coloring agents and fragrance have no benefit or purpose for skin care, and they can be detrimental by causing skin irritation or sensitization. If they aren't good for the Good Skin products, they shouldn't be good for American Beauty products either.
Speaking of fragrance, one quirky characteristic of this line is that many of the skincare products contain Rosa American Beauty extract, from the American Beauty rose. Clever identification aside, this fragrant additive imparts no benefit for skin. All in all, we suggest you pass by these products and walk a counter over to the Good Skin section, where there are far better options and the prices are noticeably lower.

Parks Canada
Home > National Parks of Canada > Forillon National Park > What's New > Media Room > Government of Canada Invests $15 Million in Forillon National Park
Highway 132 between Cap-des-Rosiers and Cap-aux-Os will be rebuilt
April 23, 2014 – Ottawa, Ontario – Office of the Minister of the Environment and Minister responsible for Parks Canada The Honourable Leona Aglukkaq, Canada's Environment Minister and Minister responsible for Parks Canada, announced today that Parks Canada will invest nearly $15 million in Forillon National Park to reconstruct the section of Highway 132 between the villages of Cap-des-Rosiers and Cap-aux-Os. This reconstruction project was undertaken following the publication of a report on roadway management in the national parks of Eastern Canada. By investing in its road infrastructure as it is being done for Highway 132, Parks Canada will not only increase the security of local residents and visitors, but will also improve access to Forillon National Park and increase its visitation. With its recent major investment projects in the Penouille Peninsula and Cap-des-Rosiers harbour, Parks Canada maintains its commitment of being a proud regional tourism partner.
"Our government is investing in the reconstruction of Highway 132, which is a vital access road for the local population and for visitors to Forillon National Park. This major project will further develop the potential and beauty while increasing the safety of the park in keeping with Parks Canada's mandate. It will also promote economic and tourism development in the region." The Honourable Leona Aglukkaq, Minister of the Environment and Minister responsible for Parks Canada "By proceeding with a full reconstruction of Highway 132 in Forillon National Park, our Government is pursuing its commitment to promote economic development of communities in Quebec." The Honourable Denis Lebel, Minister of Infrastructure,Communities and Intergovernmental Affairs, and Minister of the Economic Development Agency of Canada for the Regions of Quebec
Recent investments in Forillon National Park:
Michel Queenton External Relations Manager Gaspésie Field Unit, Parks Canada 418-368-5592 firstname.lastname@example.com facebook.com/ForillonNP twitter.com/ForillonNP
The Honourable Leona Aglukkaq, Canada's Environment Minister and Minister responsible for Parks Canada, announced today that Highway 132 will be completely rebuilt between the villages of Cap-des-Rosiers and Cap-aux-Os in Forillon National Park. An amount of $14,910,000 from Parks Canada's budget will be invested in this major project, which will last three years and have positive impacts on the economy and tourism.
In 2010, Parks Canada embarked on a roadway inspection program to gather detailed information on the state of the road network in the national parks of Eastern Canada. The project to rebuild Highway 132 in Forillon National Park was one of the Agency's top priorities. The rebuilding of Highway 132 will allow enhanced new visitor experiences in a setting that is both safe and respectful of the environment. This investment will not only increase the security of local residents and visitors, but also improve access to Forillon National Park and increase its visitation.
In fall 2013, the engineering firm Dessau was given two mandates by Parks Canada in order to launch the design phase of the Highway 132 reconstruction project. Dessau first had to prepare the drawings and specifications for Segment 1, a roughly 4-km stretch of road running from the boundary of the park, to the north of Cap-aux-Os, to a junction point near the entrance to the La Chute trail. The firm then had to undertake a design study for Segment 2, a section of road running from the end of Segment 1 to Cap-des-Rosiers. The aim of this study was to validate the different route designs proposed by Parks Canada. The call for tenders which will be launched soon, concerns Segment 1. It includes, in particular, the reconstruction of the roadway and its shoulders, the upgrading and replacement of the guardrails, the construction of a parking lot at the highest point on the route (entrance to the Les Crêtes trail) and the repair of existing culverts. The work on Highway 132 will begin in June 2014 with the construction of Segment 1, which should be completed by November. Until March 2015, efforts will be focused on finishing the design study for Segment 2 and preparing the drawings and specifications. The work on Segment 2 will take place in 2015-2016. From late April to late May, tree removal will be carried out on the rights-of-way of Segment 2 and will need to be finished before the start of the reconstruction work scheduled for June. In preparation for the project, Parks Canada will develop a traffic management plan to minimize, as much as possible, the impact of the work on traffic and on the safety of local residents. The 10-km section of Highway 132 covered by the project belongs to Parks Canada. A contract for maintaining the road was signed with Transports Québec in 1971 and has been renewed annually ever since.

The CEO (Chief Executive Officer) is often but not always also the president of a company, reporting to the Chairman of the Board and board members.
The CFO (Chief Financial Officer) is sometimes also the company treasurer and, in many companies, is seen as the second most important person in the company (since managing the quarterly results often depends on an understanding of how to keep the books). is the corporate official in charge of a company's finances.
The CIO (Chief Information Officer), a relative newcomer to the ranks of the top executives in a corporation, is responsible for a company's internal information systems, and, especially with the arrival of the Internet, sometimes in charge of the company's e-business infrastructure.
The CTO (Chief Technology Officer), another relatively new arrival to the top executive ranks in many companies, is likely to be seen as the second or third most important person in any technology company. The CTO is responsible for research and development and possibly for new product plans.

Elliott Group recently announced that Art Titus has been named Chief Operating Officer, succeeding outgoing COO Tony Casillo, who retired in December after 36 years with Elliott. Over the past six years, Tony Casillo led Elliott through a period of sustained growth and the closer integration of our global operations, said Yasuyuki Uruma, CEO of Elliott Group.
The Rankine Cycle described in the second part of this series is working hand in glove with the gas turbine Brayton Cycle and has given us remarkable energy savings. With an improved part load heat rate, 65% combined cycle efficiency is targeted by 2016, which does not seem to be a distant dream.
The Brayton Cycle
Korea Western Power Co. (KOWEPO) has selected GE technology for its first integrated gasification combined-cycle (IGCC) power plant to be built in South Korea. The 300-megawatt "cleaner coal" facility, one of the first in Asia, will help the South Korean government meet its low carbon emissions targets, while bolstering the country's electricity supply.
FlexEnergy Inc. has shipped three of its Flex Turbine MT250s to BP, to help the energy group further reduce its carbon footprint at its Wamsutter, WY, water disposal facility, through a contract with Power Service Inc. The 750KW system will utilize pipeline natural gas to produce continuous power in a grid isolated environment, while exceeding the highest air quality standards and powering on-site loads.
The Carnot Cycle we saw in the first part of this series is idealistic and efficient, but is not easy to use given today's machinery. All other thermodynamic power cycles use the Carnot cycle as a guide to achieve maximum efficiency. In this second part of the series, the author throws light on the Otto, Diesel and Rankine cycles and their efficiency. The application of these cycles in modern-day machines is also discussed.
Energy sector professionals from the South Asian countries have estimated a rich potential of approximately 16,000 MW of microhydro power in India, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. While India has identified 15,384 MW in small hydro potential, Nepal is looking at an additional 13,000 KW microhydro capacity by 2013. This is attainable with the implementation of certain policies in the construction and operation of microhydro facilities that are capable of achieving additional targets of about 300 MW micro and small hydro power every year.
Rolls-Royce has recently won an order for gas turbine and compression equipment for the Tapis oil and gas field, offshore Malaysia. The equipment will be utilized by ExxonMobil Exploration and Production Malaysia (EMEPMI) to expand and extend the production of the field.
The order includes two Rolls-Royce RB211-GT61 gas turbines, each driving twin Rolls-Royce RCB and RBB multi-stage barrel gas compressors. Each gas turbine compressor set will produce 27MW of power, which can deliver up to 390 million standard cubic feet of natural gas per day.
GE announced recently it would supply a 48-megawatt (MW) LM6000-PC Sprint aeroderivative gas turbine and related services to Turkey's independent power producer Bis Enerji Elektrik Uretim AS for its expansion. This is an attractive solution offering high output power, 10-minute start-up capabilities, best-in-class reliability, highly efficient operation, low emissions and fuel-flexibility.
Wood Group GTS has recently been awarded a multi-million dollar contract by MC Systems Energy of Moscow for Surgutneftegas OJSC in Western Siberia, Russia to provide overhaul services for two Siemens SGT-200-1S (Tornado) gas turbines. This contract will enable oil and power production to continue whilst meeting local environmental standards.
Driven by surging natural gas consumption in Asia and the United States, its global use rebounded 7.4 percent from its 2009 slump to 111.9 trillion cubic feet in 2010, according to a new Vital Signs Online report from the Worldwatch Institute. This increase puts natural gas's share of total energy consumption at 23.8 percent.

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Justin BoronThe Clayton County Board of Commissioners on Tuesday night emerged from behind closed doors unable to say whether the more than two hours of deliberation moved them closer to settling a federal discrimination case against Sheriff Victor Hill. The closed session marked the second time the board has considered the settlement proposal stemming from a lawsuit filed after Hill dismissed 27 sheriff employees on his first day in office, Jan. 3. Eventually, a total of 34 sheriff employees accused Hill of discrimination. Like the outcome of Sept. 20 meeting on the issue, commissioners again appeared to reach no consensus that could be illustrated through a formal vote, which ultimately they would have to take in public to accept any settlement. Individuals familiar with the mediation and negotiations have said the settlement proposal included between $3 million and $6 million in compensation to the plaintiffs in addition to their transfer to other jobs in the county. The secret discussion came amidst a federal judge's stern warning that if settlement talks fail, trying the case would be catastrophic and disastrous for the county. County Commission Chairman Eldrin Bell declined to comment on how the meeting went, only saying the board is still considering what is in the best interest of the citizens of Clayton County and that it was in the hands of attorneys. Jack Hancock, the board's attorney, said they are moving forward in considering what the options are. Harlan Miller, the plaintiffs' attorney, said he wasn't surprised by the lack of a decision Tuesday night. But he said he hoped there would be more to learn of today. Miller also said without a settlement, the dispute would escalate to "war in the streets." "Rather than start the process of healing, we will start the process of battle," he said, adding he meant an intensification of litigation. Maj. Michael Maddox, one of his clients, said he is ready to end the dispute. "We've been stuck in the middle of something we have no control of," he said. Throughout the dispute, Hill has maintained he had the right to fire the employees and didn't discriminate against any of them. His attorney, John Stivarius, has said Hill would not admit fault in a settlement.

Thoroughly revised and updated, with an extensive analysis of the 2008 election, this book remains the best analysis of the Electoral College for both students and general readers. "The best book available on the electoral college. Edwards provides both an excellent review of the workings of the electoral college and an incisive analysis of the failings of the institution."-Marty Wattenberg, University of California, Irvine "A wonderfully accessible discussion of every aspect of the system by which presidents are elected in the United States...Edwards's book will be of interest to scholars and instructors focusing on the presidency (both currently and historically), as well as campaigns and elections."-David A. Dulio, Historian
George C. Edwards III is Distinguished Professor and George and Julia Blucher Jordan Chair, Department of Political Science, Texas A&M University. He is also the editor of Presidential Studies Quarterly.
"The best book available on the electoral college. Edwards has crafted an entirely new and up-to-date book. He provides both an excellent review of the workings of the electoral college and an incisive analysis of the failings of the institution."-Marty Wattenberg, University of California, Irvine -- Marty Wattenberg "The most exquisitely precise and thorough case ever made for abolition of the electoral college system and substitution of a direct vote."-Neal R. Peirce, from the foreword -- Neal R. Peirce "An argumentative treatise, based on solid empirical data and sound logic, this book should generate considerable debate-the kind that the country should have had following the election of 2000 and Bush v. Gore."-Stephen Wayne, Georgetown University -- Stephen Wayne "I've come across few books as timely or as relevant as the one in which Professor Edwards suggests that the country now finds itself confronted not only with an absence of a coherent national politics but also with a constitutional crisis... Edwards sets out to prove that the Electoral College is both needlessly complex and inherently unjust... His principal lines of argument deserve extensive debate in both the news media and the Congress."-Lewis H. Lapham, Harper's Magazine -- Lewis H. Lapham Harper's Magazine "Edwards ... throws the kitchen sink, the stove and some old socks at the Electoral College... His case is compelling... [A] meticulous analysis."-Glenn C. Altschuler, New York Observer -- Glenn C. Altschuler New York Observer "Edwards ... methodically presents the case for eliminating the electoral college and replacing it with national popular elections. With excellent descriptions of how the elector system works, it is the most cogent and up-to-date criticism I have read... The case that Edwards builds against the electoral college is strong, even overwhelming. Why the Electoral College is Bad for America will be widely cited in debates about our method of electing presidents."-Alexander Keyssar, New York Review of Books -- Alexander Keyssar New York Review of Books "This crisp handbook ... outlines the origins of the electoral college ... and demonstrates the many ways it violates democratic norms."-New Yorker New Yorker "Edwards offers a robust critique of the intricate device underpinning presidential elections... A worthy, well-argued contribution to the debate."-Publishers Weekly Publishers Weekly "Time will tell whether the argument that the current system is so flawed and dangerous that the nation needs a constitutional amendment establishing a national direct election can gain momentum. But Edwards makes that case forcefully, as well or better than any other I know, and that is a genuine service."-Brian J. Gaines, Rhetoric and Public Affairs -- Brian J. Gaines Rhetoric and Public Affairs "The most exquisitely precise and sweeping case I've ever seen for abolition of the Electoral College and adopting a straightforward vote of the people."-Neal Peirce, Seattle Times -- Neal Peirce Seattle Times "[An] excellent new book."-Timothy Noah, Slate -- Timothy Noah Slate

Filmmaker seeks funding for conservation project
INDIAN RIVER COUNTY - When executive producer of Marvo Entertainment Group Samuel Koltinsky was doing research at the National Conservation Training Center in West Virginia for his television series "Heroes of conservation," he learned about the late Paul Kroegel, an immigrant from Germany who in 1903 became the first game warden of Pelican Island.
Kroegel was appointed to the position by President Theodore Roosevelt who had just declared Pelican Island the first federal bird sanctuary, setting in motion the National Wildlife Refuge system we know today with its network of more than 560 refuges, totaling over 150 million acres.
The job paid just one dollar a month, but that was of no concern to Kroegel who had voluntarily been protecting the last rookery on the island from plume industry hunters for years. Ever versatile, he supported his family by working as a boat builder, carpenter and beekeeper. He was also a skilled photographer and left behind a myriad of pictures of the island, which at that time was five acres. Today it's down to 2.8 acres due to human encroachment and wave action from jet skis and boats.
Koltinsky and his team became inspired by the selfless story of Kroegel, one of America's first heroes of conservation, and decided to produce a documentary about him. "We felt that this is a story that needed to be told as it relates to our first national wildlife refuge," says Koltinksy, who is 60 and lives in Naples with his wife. "It's a poignant story too. We have a German immigrant in the 1870s coming over here making a difference and helping to basically change our landscape and the way we look at preservation."
Koltinsky's videographer, Mike Benton, started shooting the documentary this past March at the celebration of Pelican Island National Wildlife Refuge's 110th birthday. Filming continues through this fall and will be completed at some point in 2014, the 150th birthday year of Paul Kroegel.
Included in the documentary will be artifacts from Kroegel's early years back in Chemnitz, Germany, where Koltinsky reached out to the city's mayor and townspeople to become involved with the film. "I see this as an international, not just national documentary," says Koltinsky.
Kroegel lived in Germany until he was 17 years old, the year his mother died in labor on Christmas day. To cope with the sadness of the family's loss, Kroegel's father moved him and his brother to the U.S., where they eventually settled in Indian River County.
Helping with the research in Vero has been Kevin Lowry, Visitor Services Manager of Pelican Island National Wildlife Refuge, which is under the auspices of the United States Fish and Wildlife Services. One of the artifacts that Koltinsky's team has found is Kroegel's boat log with detailed descriptions of his everyday life, including some personal notes as well.
"This truly is a treasured insight to daily life in Vero area in 1899," says Koltinsky. "In my twenty years of producing I've never come across that kind of artifact. In that log he's talking about some of his travels, weather, and what he was doing. These are going to be quite exciting artifacts presented in the documentary."
Lowry also helped them connect with Kroegel's granddaughter, Janice Kroegel, who resides in Vero. She remembers her grandfather, whom she described to Koltinsky as 'quiet and thoughtful.' With such personal accounts, Koltinsky says the documentary offers keen insights into Kroegel as a person, one who left a legacy of selfless passion for a cause greater than himself and still serves as an inspiration for people today to try and make a difference.
"With this documentary we will explore his life and impact on America, but it's also a very contemporary project (because) we will take a look at how one does make a difference and who those people are in today's world of stewardship and what we can learn," says Koltinsky. "This whole notion of having a vision and realizing a vision and doing that in the most humble way was what Paul Kroegel was all about so we definitely want to look at our horizon today and ask people to step up and volunteer and make a difference."
Barbara Hoffman, chairman of the board of the Cultural Council of Indian River County, concurs, and is particularly interested in inspiring today's youth.
"When we talk about nature and we talk about the environment I think that young people are more sensitive to these issues," says Hoffman. "And when they learn that one person so many years ago was able to make such a significant change, he can certainly become a role model for them."
For her part, Hoffman is leading the Cultural Council's effort to help Koltinsky develop, market, and promote ideas for the documentary, in addition to helping write proposals and grants as well as screening release events. She learned about the project from Kevin Lowry, who introduced her to Koltinksy.
The two clicked right away, says Koltinsky, who had been seeking local backing. "We were looking for someone who would help support promoting this project and whose vision matched what we see. When I met Barbara we hit it off right away. She is quite empowering and passionate about what she does for the artsIt was the right match," says Koltinsky, adding that there will be a component of the documentary which will include art conservation stewardship as well.
Currently, the project's budget is running approximately $246,000, and to date, there are two underwriters who have partnered with the film company on the project, Pelican Island Preservation Society and Torwest Inc.
But more money still needs to be raised and Koltinsky continues to explore every avenue to attain it, and is particularly interested in local groups as they help attract state and national financial support.
"It is important that we have local support especially when we are seeking funding from state and national grants," says Koltinsky, "because this is a really important project."

Daniel Keatings and Ellen Falkner lead an awesome foursome with Emma Pooley and Louis Smith in a medal rush at the Commonwealth Games
Posted: August 01, 2014|
Daniel Keatings and Ellen Falkner led a Mid-Anglian medal rush at the Commonwealth Games yesterday with their golden glories.
Emma Pooley added a silver and Louis Smith got in on the act with a bronze on a successful day in Glasgow for the region's sports stars.
Huntingdon gymnast Keatings wrote himself into the record books with his gold in the blue vest of Scotland in the men's pommel horse, hitting a huge score of 16.058, as he became his country's most decorated Commonwealth Games gymnast.
Keatings already had silvers in the bag, from the men's team event on Tuesday and from his individual effort in the men's all-around competition on Wednesday.
And Keatings, who relegated England's Max Whitlock into silver and Huntingdon team-mate Smith into bronze, has a chance for more medals today when he competes in the high bar final.
He said: "I knew it was going to be a tough day. You have Louis, who has obviously put in amazing results over the past eight years and you have Max, who has been in top form during this competition, so the gold could have gone to any of us.
"I was just thinking of the crowd when I was getting my medal. My mind went blank, I was just so overjoyed and overwhelmed with the whole experience. It hasn't sunk in yet."
Smith also praised the efforts of his long-time friend and training partner Keatings.
He said: "Dan had massive pressure on him but he did what he needed to do.
"He's an extremely talented gymnast who has had a hard time dealing with injuries and he has come back, missed the Olympics, which would have been hard for him mentally, so he has been very up and down.
"But I've trained with him all my life and I think this is the start for him."
Cambridge bowler Ellen Falkner was not to be outdone as she collected her third Commonwealth Games gold in the women's triples.
Falkner, who plays outdoors for St Neots and indoors for City of Ely, helped her England team, featuring Sophie Tolchard and Sian Honnor, to the top of the podium in convincing style as they thrashed Australia's Lynsey Clarke, Karen Murphy and Kelsey Cottrell 22-4 in last night's final.
It follows her triumphs in the women's fours in Manchester in 2002 on her Commonwealths debut and the women's pairs in Delhi four years ago.
A delighted Falkner said her latest gold was very much a team effort.
She said: "I think it's very difficult to compare with the others I've won, but I'm just so proud of these two – Sophie on her first Games and Sian has bowled superbly. It's incredibly special."
And former Cambridge Triathlon Club member Pooley marked the final women's individual road cycling time trial of her career with silver behind New Zealand's Linda Villumsen in a time of 42.31.49.

This thread isn't about accessories you can get for the Acer Liquid Metal but more about the accessories you have bought for it and your opinion on them.
Today I ordered these Bluetooth Headphones/Hands Free. These are the same as the Jaybird Earphones. The only differences is these ones don't have their logo or their price tag. If you look around you will see a few companies that sell this but put their own logo on them. Like Moor.
But the ones I am getting from Amazon are the newer model. These ones have Noise Cancellation built into them.
And I have picked up the Mugen Power 1800mAh Extended Battery.
I did have a screen protector for it but it sucked. It was a little bit thick so it was a bit on the stiff side, and as the screen is curved on the Acer it never stayed down around the edges.
I did debate about picking up the ZAGG invisibleSHIELD but I heard they are a smudge magnetic. I doubt I will get another screen protector as I have a case, but if I did it will be one with fat repellent. I will have to admit that the Pixxeno Screen Protector did do a really good job at keeping smudges off the screen. Just a shame it was a poor fit for the phone. If it fitted well I would get another one just because of how well it kept the screen clean.
If you don't mind cutting a bit off the edges this would be a pretty good buy. But even doing that you will probably still catch the edges because it is pretty thick. If this fitted better and was flush with the phone I would buy it again in a heart beat.
And probably the best buy I got for the Acer MT was the Samsung 16GB Class 10 Micro SD. A must have if you use ad2sdx.
Probably the best case you can get for the Acer is the B41 Black Leather. You can get one that flips from the top but that one covers up the LEDs but the side opening one covers the vol buttons. So both cases have their drawbacks.
This Black Universal Capacitive Touchscreen Stylus works ok with are Acer but isn't great. If you find it hard to typing on the Acer keyboard like my grandparents did it does help.

Was there as part of an excursion from a Carnival Cruise and had a horrid experience. For a ONE HOUR visit to this beach they asked ONLY ONE man and his family to pay $10.00 per person per lounge chair. After he asked everybody else if they had to pay and we ALL said no he went to the owner trying for some kind of a refund and was denied. Because of this our group did not purchase any drinks OR food. The beach was full of seaweed so that NONE
of our group got into the ocean. After asking locals we discovered this was the norm for this location. I can not recommend this Boo Boo jam or booboojam location to ANYBODY. Those there planned to let Carnival cruises know as well. Do not waste your time or money with this place.

We love Boo Boo Jam. Great food and the "best rum punch on the island, Mon" make for a lot of fun. I am trying to contact them to order some more Tees. Does anyone have an updated email address? We rate them a 5. We always feel safe and have a great time every time we visit.

Thomas F. Kirwin, United States Attorney for the Northern District of
Florida announced that Dr. Robert L. Ignasiak, Jr. was sentenced today by Senior United States District Judge Lacey A. Collier to 292 months in prison, and fined $1,000,000.00.
In addition, he was ordered to pay a $4,300.00 Special Monetary Assessment. Ignasiak must serve a term of 3 years of supervised release after his incarceration.
Ignasiak was found guilty on November 3, 2008, of 43 charges including: health care fraud; dispensing controlled substances, including fentanyl, hydrocodone, diazepam, chlonazepam, morphine, and alprazolam, the use of which resulted in the death of two persons; and unlawfully dispensing controlled substances including oxycodone, morphine, fentanyl, hydrocodone, alprazolam, diazepam, clonazepam, and carisoprodol.
