Yeah, I hate to bring down the rating of this; I really wanted to like it, but it just didn't work out for me. It didn't really do anything. At first I really wanted to believe it was giving me a "glow" at least, but I think that was just the slight oiliness from just applying it to the skin. I used it on my skin 2x a day, and it dried out my face so much that some parts actually got really flaky. I have normal-ish skin and I don't typically use a moisturizer, but thought it might be a good idea to try it with an oil. It doesn't really cause breakouts, at least, and absorbs quickly since it's a drier type of oil. I've use it on my hair, but I didn't really notice increased shine or moisture. My porous hair just soaks it up, of course, but it doesn't seem to be helping it.
A lot of people commented that this stinks, but I purchased a version of this that was citrus ginger scented, so it smells amazing - that's the best part. I guess I'll keep using it on my hair, or use it as cuticle oil.
It's only $12 on sale, which is not bad if you want to give argan oil a shot.

This is my first argan oil experience. I watch QVC a lot and they always rant and rave about argan oil so when I saw this on clearance at Target I rushed to buy it!

First experience with Argan Oil, but I decided to go with this brand because I love how they're vegan and basically everything that's bad for you- free.
This product is a BLESSING IN A BOTTLE. I'd been breaking out more than usual and then ended up having an allergic reaction to Makeup Forever's foundation and primer during my initial break out and my face was OUT OF CONTROL. THIS CLEARED MY FACE UP WITHIN LESS THAN A WEEK. I KID YOU NOT. I've taken pictures of my face every day since I started and this is really such a blessing.
It's great because it really is 100% Argan Oil- just as it should be.
Some people complain about the smell, and it's not like I wanna wear it as a perfume or anything either, but it's natural and smells exactly as it should. Hey, if the product works... what's the problemo, right?

This is my first organ oil experience. After hearing all of the hype about it for over a year, I finally decided to try some. I got the 2 oz. bottle at Whole Foods.
My overall impression of organ oil is good. It is a medium weight oil and soaks in well without breakouts. Leaves my face with a nice glow and as I only use oil at night, I wake up with my skin hydrated and refreshed. I have also used a few pumps with my body lotion and it helps to give it a little boost without being greasy. I haven't used it in my hair as my hair is very fine and oils leave it looking greasy. It has done wonders with my hands & healing up a very bad case of chapped winter hands.
I agree with others that this has an "off" odor. I have always believed oils shouldn't have any strong odor at all (as a strong off odor means it has gone bad). But Acure assures that the odor is normal for such an oil, and many oils I do use have a descernible odor (just think of shea butter, olive oil, and coconut oil).
So far I have found this brand of organ oil is readily available and reasonable priced. I also trust this brand and so far like each and every one of their products I have tried. I think the 1 oz. size is a good starting point to give this oil a try.

I bought this after seeing all the rave about argan oil, and how it transforms the skin.
This is a nice, heavy oil, and it moisturizes like no other, i did however wake up a tad greasy but nothing serious.
It comes in a see through 1 oz bottle, which apparently isn't good as light harms the quality of the oil,at the end, there was a green stain in the oil for some reason. the pump was nice but i personally prefer a pipette.
ONE MAJOR COMPLAINT I HAVE, the oil reeks, it stinks and the smell lingers on the face for a while, it's truly awful, i don't know if it's a "nutty smell" or if i got a bad bottle, but it just wasn't a really pleasant experience slathering my face in it, right before bed time.
For this price point, it's great, but next time i'll purchase NOW foods version, as it is cheaper and comes in a dark bottle with a pipette.

I don't get the hype about Argan oil. I tried it in many ways and from many brands. It doesn't work for me.
Too oily for my face. I have very very dry skin in the cold months and it didn't hydrate it. Gave me pimples.
Too oily for my hair. Didn't see any difference in my hair or when I tried it on my scalp as I have dry and irritated scalp. Didn't work for fly away either. Even applied in small quantities on my dry or wet hair, it still had a greasy feeling and look.
For my body- it just sits on my skin and doesn't sink in.
This oil is a miss for me.

Little higher priced than most argan oils, but it supports a woman's cooperative, so that works for me.
Have gone through a couple of bottles of this stuff, part of my full throttle switch to more natural and organic and body friendly and earth friendly products.
Why? Because they work better. After years of dumping my money down the drain on packaging and marketing, I'm just using the stuff that people have known about forever, and that has been effective:
coconut oil, shea butter, olive oil . . . and argan oil.
Years ago, I tried Josie Maran's argan oil, and liked it. But I knew it was chocked full of chemicals and preservatives, and mentioned as much in my reviews.
Now that I have finally made the switch, I know why that product did break me out at times: the chemicals. It wasn't the oil, it was the chemicals.
I have used argan oil ALL OVER my face, in my hair, down my neck.
Nary a clogged pore.
What I get is moisturized, supple, luminous skin, that looks good with or without makeup.
I never thought I would be comfortable going without makeup, but this new lifestyle of minimum amounts of processed products, and just sticking with basics for my skin care has taken my skin to a new level.
Organic. Unrefined. Pure. Healing.
Coupled to a high, raw vegan diet, the results are spectacular.
One woman thought I was her age; she was almost twenty years younger than me. But it's more than the youth -- it's being vital, by sacking the toxic garbage.
Although this is a bit pricier than other argan oils, it supports a great cause, and it is great quality.
Aragn oil will be in my beauty arsenal until the day I day . . .
and I go out looking great.

Absolutely awesome. I bought this on a whim while I was re-ordering (for the 3rd time!) the night cream and Firming Serum. I *love* this product. I have never used argan oil before I so don't have anything to compare it to, but this makes my skin baby-soft and plump looking. I put it on after I get out of the shower and let it sink in before applying sunscreen and makeup. I am 38 now and I swear I haven't aged since I started using Acure 2 years ago. People at my new job are astonished when they find out my age. Acure is doing something right! Maybe I'll get an extra couple of years off from the aging thing by adding the Argan oil! :) I know you can't fight it forever, but products like this certainly do make it easier.

I don't know if this particular oil is responsible for my results. Perhaps any old oil (jojoba, olive, coconut, Shea, almond, etc) would have done the job. All I know is, this particular oil has been very effective for me. Here's my story:
I recently started using a 10% concentration benzyl peroxide product for my breakouts. The first time I used it, I had a HORRIBLE reaction. I think I overdid it. My skin started feeling very sensitive within hours. It turned red in the cheeks and became itchy. My entire eye area started getting puffy and red. I hoped in the morning it would be back to normal. Well, the next morning my face was puffed up like a puff pastry, my eyes swollen almost completely shut, and everything was itchy, everywhere. I looked like I rubbed poison ivy all over my face.
It took days to go back to normal. The skin around my eyes became extremely dry- cracking, peeling, tight and very uncomfortable. After using some lotions that did nothing, I decided to treat the skin around my eyes with an oil. I chose this one, which I happened to have in my cupboard never had use for.
Well, it did wonders. It gave me immediate relief. The skin around my eyes started to soften. The rough, scaly skin was just about gone in two days. The redness went away and the skin was soft and comfortable in about a week.
I decided to continue using the benzyl peroxide in smaller amounts, building my tolerance. I put this oil around my eyes prior to applying the BP. It creates a barrier and soothes them. I think the oil helps protect the sensitive eye area against the BP. Besides protecting the skin, this really keeps the eye area hydrated. I use it at night. It sinks in while I sleep, and my eye area is soft and not greasy at all in the morning. And the BP has done wonders for my breakouts! Without the oil, I probably would have stopped using it.
I am now using the amount of BP I used the very first time, with no negative effects on my eyes or skin. Part of it is tolerance, but I think part of it is thanks to this oil.
I tried using it on my face once or twice, but I found it too heavy for all over use. For very dry skin, though, it might be perfect.
Like I said, I don't know how much of this experience can be attributed to this particular oil. The allergic effects from the BP probably would have disappeared with time and care, regardless. But this certainly didn't hurt, and it really helped with immediate relief. It's a wonderful and healthy emollient for dry skin, especially very dry, flaky, cracked patches like I was dealing with.
I have one complaint. The pump on the bottle doesn't allow for a lot of control. You can't slowly push it down for just a bit of oil. It's really all or nothing. I think this is due to the spring mechanism. I've found a way to push very slowly in order to extract just a drop at a time, but it took practice and it's a bit of a pain. This pump is great if you're looking to put the oil all over your face, but if you just want to treat a small area, it's not ideal.

UPDATE ON 15/9/2014: I have also noticed that my face is less oily during the day when i wear this at night as a face moisturizer. I suppose this helps regulate my oil production as well. I also notice that my blemishes will decrease in size the day after I put this on at night. And my skin has felt pretty soft and smooth to the touch as well... I will definitely continue using this... Amaziinnnggg
I have not really encountered a product that has turned my skin around so much before than this. I have dehydrated oily skin and I also suffer from adult acne.
At first i thought putting oil on my face is kinda counter productive. I tried it out once and I think I broke out pretty badly but I was wearing it underneath another moisturizer I guess it was too much for my skin to handle. I stopped using it and picked it up again months down the road. I just wanted to try it again and have been using it every night as a facial moisturizer and it really has turned my skin around. My blemishes have reduced in number (I dont use any acne medication). It also actually heals my blemishes faster and my hyperpigmentations have been reduced as well. My skin is no longer dehydrated and its well moisturized. I notice my crows feet is slowly disappearing. (Im not that old, I'm only 29 but the lines around my eyes have started to emerge) And I notice my eyelashes have also thickened. I dont use it as a daytime moisturizer though as it makes my skin oily, but using it at night does wonders for my skin.
The oil has a nutty smell to it, and it is housed in clear glass bottle with a dropper. I wish they would package it in a darker glass vial as this would guarantee the freshness longer. The oil is thick but absorbs pretty well. The price is also pretty cheap. One bottle may last you more than 6 months because you only need 3-4 drops to moisturize your face.I have also used this all over my body and my, it has left my body feeling the softest I have ever felt the day after...If I could afford it, i would use it as an all over body oil as well. All in all, I love this and I have seen great changes in my skin and I will continue using it for years to come.

WASHINGTON, May 23, 2013 Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel has directed the Defense Department to implement the guidance President Barack Obama outlined in his national security speech delivered at the National Defense University here today, including efforts to close the detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
In a statement issued immediately after the speech, Hagel said the president presented a comprehensive vision for continuing to protect the nation from terrorism, especially from al-Qaida and its affiliates, while remaining true to the nation's values and laws.
"I have directed the Department of Defense to work closely with our interagency partners and allies to implement the president's guidance, including the efforts to close the detention facility at Guantanamo Bay," Hagel said.
The secretary noted he has been closely involved in these issues as a U.S. senator, co-chairman of the President's Intelligence Advisory Board and now as defense secretary.
"I applaud President Obama's strong leadership in defending the United States of America and advancing our interests around the world," he added.

Here's a Tip on Letting Your Hair Grow Out!
I am often asked, "Do you have any tips on letting ones' hair
grow out?"
The goal to growing one's hair out is to get the bottom to be the
same length as the top as fast as possible. Though it sounds counter
intuitive, the best way to do this is to cut the bottom shorter so that it can
start to catch up with the top while "dusting" the layers in between.
Dusting is the term for lightly trimming the ends – that is, less than a
quarter of an inch is cut off.

My work is profiled here.
I am an urban sociologist. Urban sociology focuses on how the connection between the physical development of cities and the people who live there. It is about space and place and how these affect the lives and opportunities of communities who vary by race, gender, ethnicity, national origin, age, income, and more. Urban space and location is a major reason for poverty and inequality across cities and throughout the urbanizing world.
My research and teaching focus on the political economy of urban development. I look at power arrangements and institutional decision making to determine how these affect urban social spatial patterns. My belief is that if we can understand how people are economically harmed by different political arrangements, we can change them. So I work at documenting the decisions and activities of large and powerful institutions such banks, land holders, corporations and governments.
I try to do research that policy makers and community organizations can use to address social change. I've written extensively on banking and disinvestment, housing ideology, community organizing, homelessness, and homeownership. I was a pioneer in the use of HMDA data (federally mandated disclosure of bank residential lending practices) to address issues of racial discrimination in mortgage lending and the uneven development of cities.
My current work focuses on two major areas.
My first research area is U.S. housing. I am concerned with housing tenure (homeownership versus renting). My work attempts to provide empirical and theoretical analyses of the renting and owning issue. I am currently looking at how the institution of renting is poorly supported by policy and works to disadvantage poor and younger households in particular. People who rent are neither considered good citizens nor members of communities. Often renters are not viewed as worthy of good housing. Homeownership and renting create problems for lots and lots of people.
My second research area is Jerusalem. Jerusalem is arguably one of the most important cities in the world and is ground zero for religious, ethnic and nationalist conflict. From an international diplomacy perspective, global peace is intimately tied to how conflicts within and around Jerusalem are resolved. My work (with Hebrew University geographer Dr. Gillad Rosen) looks at the the politics of development in Jerusalem and how conflict is mitigated or enhanced as a result. Our recent article, "Making Place: The Shifting Green Line and the Development of 'Greater' Metropolitan Jerusalem" addresses these issues. We are writing a book on the spatial politics of Jerusalem with Polity Press that should be out next year.
My work has been funded by government agencies at the local, state and federal levels and by many national and local foundations. I recently was Chair of the Community and Urban Sociology Section of the American Sociological Association and I serve on the editorial boards of City and Community and the Journal of Urban Affairs.

Greetings! So I thought I should update on how this month of writing as been going.
Let's go with: well. It's going well…
Have I written everyday? No.
Have I written more than I have in the past? Yes!
I've also really enjoyed trying to find different ways of promoting and also making some money with my writing. I've done some random interwebs searching, joined some fun blog linkups, looked into writing guest posts and being a contributor on websites and blogs and started following and commenting on some fun new blogs!
Here's some of the resources I've discovered in the form of a handy dandy bullet point list:
BlogLovin – This is a fun and nicely designed blog reader that allows you to follow blogs and then "like" posts and comment through the site. If you use BlogLovin you can add Creating Purple Fire by either searching for it or by clicking here to see it's page and follow new posts!
Yahoo Contributor Network – I signed up for this last week but haven't pimped out the profile or written anything for them yet. I can see this being really cool but I'm worried about my audience being there to see my stuff (also I have no idea who my audience really is… hehe)
Weekly Writing Prompts from the hilarious Mama's Losin' It blog (I kind of want to be her best friend). She has really fun writing prompts and she also has a series of Vlog prompts which I might start doing to get me in the habit of creating video posts!
Blogger Link Up – This is a fun resourse I got from a friend on Facebook. Every week Cathy sends out a list of people who are looking for guest posts along with their specific topics. I haven't submitted to anyone yet but I can see this being a super cool resources later on down the road.
Better Blogger Network - I found this one through a blog I read and love the feel of the community! I also love that they have a forum thread where you can post your blog posts and see everyone else's recient posts. It makes it really easy to go in and comment on blogs and hopefully get some new readers for my own blog!
Revolutionize Her – Another fun community of bloggers! I did see where they may be shutting this one down soon though which kind of sucks but at least I'll still have the BBN to see and comment on blog posts.
i Blog 4 me – I'm still trying to figure out where to add myself on this site but I really like the feel of it. I guess I'm a mom blog but I'd also like to think of it as a humor blog too. Oh the trials and tribulations of being everything and nothing at the same time!
BlogDash – This is one I'm not so sure about yet but I'm giving it a shot. It's a blogger
I'm still looking for a good, nerdy mom blog linkup though since I think that's where I really fit in the grand scheme of things. Maybe I need to just create one myself… hmmmmm…
I think I've narrowed down my niche to being a funny (to me), passion chasing, nerdy, mommy blogger. I'm not sure if that's narrowed down enough though… I'd love some input on topics you'd love to see me cover or even a series that would be interesting to you!
How do you define your writing? Have you used any of the resources I listed above or do you have some additional ones that might help me out?

The National Institutes of Health has developed recommendations for patients seeking bariatric surgery.
These requirements are as follows:
BMI 35 – 39.9 with a significant weight related health problem.
Significant weight loss may help to improve hypertension, diabetes, sleep apnea, and many other obesity-related problems. If you suffer from one of these problems, you may benefit from weight loss surgery. Remember that your BMI is only one factor in the decision to have weight loss surgery. Other factors such as your overall medical condition and age are also considered before deciding if you'll make a good candidate for weight loss surgery.
BMI over 40 with or without a significant weight related health problem
With a BMI over 40, you are considered severely obese. This category of weight puts you at increased risk for multiple health problems, or co-morbidities, that people with obesity face. It is unlikely you will be able to permanently lose a substantial amount of weight by dieting and exercise alone. Weight loss surgery may be an option for you.
Calculate your BMI

Step 1: Gather What you Need
• 1 Red Bell Pepper
• 1 Jalapeno
• ½ White Onion
• 3 Large Cloves of Garlic
• 1 Handful of Cilantro
• 42 ounces of Canned Tomatoes
• 1 Lime
• Salt
• Crushed Red Pepper
• Oven
• Aluminum Foil
• Cutting Board
• Large Kitchen Knife
• Can Opener
• Blender/Food Processor
• Bowl
Step 2: Place the Red Bell Pepper and Jalapeno on Aluminum Foil
Note: For this recipe we want the red bell pepper and jalapeno to be 'Fire Roasted' so we will place them in the oven to perform this task. Broiling consists of cooking directly under heat so on your oven it only turns the top burner on and cooks from this heat, in contrast to regular cooking which cooks by heating up the air inside the oven. You will need to check on the red bell pepper and jalapeno approximately every 5 minutes rotating them to a new side when one side has blistered.
Thank you ;)

Make Up For Ever #940 Star Powder Review, Photos, Swatches
Make Up For Ever #940 Star Powder
Make Up For Ever #940 Star Powder
Make Up For Ever #940 Star Powder ($19.00 for 0.09 oz.) is a loose powder that shifts color at different angles and lighting situations. It moves from a cooler-toned beige-white to a coppery pink shimmer-sheen. It seems like it is similar to MAC's Vanilla pigment but perhaps with a less pronounced sheen–more yellow in it than copper.
This is actually the shade that Nick Lujan patted onto the center of the lid in this look. The texture is very, very finely milled; it practically melts against the skin because of how silky smooth it is. #940 is particularly useful for layering over other eyeshadows to add more dimension to the shade, though it can be used alone just as easily. It can be applied dry or damp, and the metallic sheen will be more pronounced if it applied damp.
The Glossover
#940 Star Powder
|Surprisingly, the silkiness of the loose powder doesn't give way to chalkiness or even lots of dusty flare-ups when you open the container. It settles just enough to be easy to use while still having a really soft feel.

3 1/2 cups
confectioners' sugar
1 cup
3 tablespoons
corn syrup
2 drops
peppermint oil
I love these mints. If the patties don't thicken don't give up just keep adding powdered sugar and kneading. You won't be disappointed
This was quite a disaster. I was looking for a good mint patty recipe with a firm filling, however even after FREEZING the mint filling, it was not firm enough to form a ball or a patty for that matter. So because I did not want to waste all of the expensive ingredients, I dropped the filling by spoonfuls onto wax paper and drizzled melted chocolate on top. I couldn't even peel them off the wax paper they were so sticky! I tasted of one and ended up throwing the rest away as they were not at all presentable.

The mesurements on this recipe is just not right. I wish I had read he review before I made it. it was just like soup & I added 1 1/2 to 2 more cups of conf. sugar & still not solid enough.
So I was nervous about making this recipe after reading reviews but it's the only mint one I could find so I went for it. I did 2 C. pwd sugar, 1/3 c. margarine, 1 TBS corn syrup(or a tad more) and a couple drops peppermint. It has turned out thick and yummy so far, we'll see how the rest goes.
The mint center filling didn't thicken enough to make patties, so I spread the mixture on a cookie sheet and poored melted chocolate on top and then cut them up.
This did not turn out at all. I did everything exactly as instructed, but even after refrigerating over 24 hours these still were runny. I added three more cups powdered sugar and they still won't firm up enough to do anything with. I'm afraid I will have to throw the entire thing away.
very soupy. after reading other reviews, I was prepared to add lots of powdered sugar. Even after 3 extra cups of powdered sugar it was still not the right texture. It was entirely too grainy. I do NOT recommend this recipe!
The dogh never got hard enough for balls

Boeing says that it could respond to any threat from the A350 XWB family with an "overwhelmingly superior" new airliner to replace the 777 before the end of the next decade.
Airbus marketeers believe that they have their rival on the ropes following the sales success of the A350 amid the Boeing 787's difficulties and the lack of clarity over a succession or development plan for the 777.
"The market has really taken to the XWB because we have a real family approach, with three variants all fully launched and fully ordered by customers," says Airbus vice-president marketing Andrew Shankland.
The initial A350-900 is due to enter service in 2013, with the smaller -800 and larger -1000 following one and two years after, respectively. The twinjet has been designed as a single family to tackle the market that Boeing competes in with the 777 and 787. And Shankland points out that while in 2004 Boeing was offering three or potentially four 787 models, there are now just two firmly defined variants - the -8 and -9 stretch.
Alan Pardoe, A330/A340/A350 product marketing director, adds that the 787-8 is also under attack from the A330-200. "We've improved the -200's range and our competitor has diminished the range of its product [in early production aircraft], so one perceived advantage of the 787 has simply gone away," he says.
However, Kostya Zolotusky, managing director of capital markets development at Boeing, says the airframer is "very comfortable" with its product development strategy. "We don't know exactly what the A350 will be yet, but we see it being an 'A340NG' [next generation]," he says, doubting that the new Airbus can offer any "leap-frog technology".
He says that "in the best case scenario [for the A350]", Boeing could "come to market within three to four years with a 777-replacement aircraft that is overwhelmingly superior to the A350".
Speaking in London after a Boeing financier briefing, Zolotusky said that should an all-new replacement not be needed, then "there are a lot of things we can do with the current 777, like a new wing, engines and so on" to be competitive with the XWB.
While the status of the 787-10 "is unclear, Zolotusky says that the development of a Dreamliner variant larger than the -9 remains a longer-term possibility. "We need the 787 flying to understand what we can do with the airframe. Once it's flying we'll know how much we can stretch it."

text: China Glaze Blue Bells Ring Nail Lacquer ($7.50 for 0.50 fl. oz.) is described as an "icy blue shimmer." It's an electric cobalt blue with metallic shimmer and foil-like finish. The finish reminded me of Wet 'n' Wild Grew Up in Cobalt-imore a bit, but it's bluer, less cool-toned. China Glaze Ride the Waves has a similar blue coloring, but it is a jelly-finish, so it looks very different. Zoya Song is much, much darker.

Narragansett, R.I. -- August 28, 2003 -- University of Rhode Island Graduate School of Oceanography (GSO) physical oceanographer Dr. Isaac Ginis has been awarded a $279,000 grant by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to further improve the computer hurricane forecasting model developed by GSO and NOAAs Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) at Princeton University that is now being used by the National Weather Service to forecast hurricanes in the Atlantic.
The two-year grant supports a program of work designed to further improve the GFDL/URI model and to carefully evaluate the improvements for possible operational implementation during the 2004-2005 hurricane seasons. In addition, the URI model will be introduced into the operational GFDL model used for hurricane forecasting in the East Pacific. The URI component of the computer model takes ocean dynamics into account to improve the forecasting of hurricane intensity.
"This grant will allow us to continue our research efforts toward improving the operational hurricane forecast system," said Ginis. "It will be conducted in active collaboration with NOAA scientists, building directly upon our successful joint research program.
"Our main goal in this project," continued Ginis, "is to better understand and describe in our hurricane forecast model the physical processes causing the extreme winds and heavy rain that lead to death and to damage amounting to $5 billion annually in the United States."
Several years ago, Ginis and his Narragansett Bay Campus colleagues, including physical oceanographer Lewis Rothstein, developed a computer model that more accurately predicts the intensity of hurricanes. This model was coupled with the operational GFDL hurricane model. The coupled model provided a more efficient set of predictors that take into consideration the effects of atmosphere-ocean interaction during storms and more accurate predictions of storm intensity. In 2000, the coupled model became an operational part of NOAAs suite of tools used to more accurately forecast hurricanes.
A resident of Exeter, Ginis came to the URI Graduate School of Oceanography as a marine scientist in 1993. He was promoted to associate professor of oceanography in 1998 and full professor in 2003. A native of Russia, he received his Ph.D. in geophysics from the Institute of Experimental Meteorology in Obninsk. He has developed several numerical modeling courses for URI that cover various numerical methods applied for solving the fundamental equations governing atmospheric and oceanic motions, marine geophysics, and biophysics.
Last year, Ginis was named a "2002 Environmental Hero" by NOAA in recognition of his contributions in the field of hurricane forecast research. This past January Ginis was one of a group of researchers presented with the National Ocean Partnership Program (NOPP) Excellence in Partnering Award for his work on the Coastal Marine Demonstration Project.
The GSO is one of the country's largest marine science education programs, and one of the world's foremost marine research institutions. Founded in 1961 in Narragansett, RI, GSO serves a community of scientists who are researching the causes of and solutions to such problems as acid rain, harmful algal blooms, global warming, air and water pollution, oil spills, overfishing, and coastal erosion. GSO is home to the Coastal Institute, the Coastal Resources Center, Rhode Island Sea Grant, the Institute for Archaeological Oceanography, and the National Sea Grant Library.

Family tributes to their beloved Jemma Jukes
Posted: December 18, 2012|
MOURNERS gathered to pay tribute to a newly-wed 24-year-old who died after a battle with leukaemia.
Jemma Jukes passed away on December 6 after losing her fight against the disease.
Yesterday dozens of Jemma's family and friends came together for her funeral at Weston Mill Crematorium.
Jemma's elder brother, Lee, read a moving tribute to her during the service.
He said: "You touched the hearts of so many people. You had a fantastic personality and you loved to laugh.
"We were such a close family and shared a lot together.
"We were so excited when you were born, you were so beautiful with your rosy cheeks and dark hair.
"When you were young we spent a lot of time going on trips. You would always want an ice cream although most of it ended up on your face."
Songs by Coldplay and Westlife were played in the chapel during the service, and mourners were asked to think about their favourite memories of Jemma.
Her brother added: "You always loved music and had lots of pictures around your bedroom of your favourite pop stars.
"I always remember you writing stories, you had such an imagination, you always read stories to me.
"We had some lovely caravan holidays and we went to EuroDisney, you loved it there.
"I will always remember you dancing around the room on a Saturday morning getting ready for the day, and then our family nights with fish and chips."
Jemma's sister, Kelly, said: "Jemma we watched you grow into an independent, strong willed, gorgeous young lady.
"We always did everything together, you loved being an auntie.
"All you ever wanted was to meet your prince and have a fairytale wedding. You and Michael never spent a day apart, you were inseparable."
Jemma was diagnosed with leukaemia in November last year and underwent bone marrow transplants and chemotherapy to fight the disease.
Her sister said: "You never moaned or complained about anything apart from the hospital food.
"You were so strong throughout. You remained so positive and told us all not to worry.
"You used to make me laugh. You had a great sense of humour.
"Our lives will never be the same and we have a huge hole in our hearts.
"You are amazing in every way, we could not have wished for a better sister and you will live on in our hearts forever."
Jemma married her husband, Michael, in November, just a few weeks before her death.
He said: "My special wife, I love you more than life can say.
"You made me smile and laugh. I can always remember the day we got together, that day changed my world. "We didn't have a lot of friends but we were each other's best friends.
"When you spoke you lit the room up and melted my heart."

Annual Faculty Exhibition Webster University's May Gallery kicks off 2008 with its annual faculty show. Featuring the landscape photography of fifteen photographers, the exhibition is a study in contrasts, with some photographers cranking down their apertures to take in sweeping panoramas while others narrow their depth of field, concentrating on a single environmental element set against an abstract background. Standouts include Curt von Diest's very pretty landscape with horses amid Utah's sandstone formations, and a dynamic close-up of prairie grasses that Dan Dreyfus caught swaying. Through February 29 at the May Gallery, 8300 Big Bend Boulevard (on the second floor of the Sverdrup Building), Webster Groves; 314-246-7673 (www.webster.edu/maygallery). Hours: 9 a.m.-9 p.m. Mon.-Fri., noon-5 p.m. Sat.-Sun. (MG)
Deborah Aschheim: Reconsider In earlier projects Los Angeles-area sculptor Deborah Aschheim has explored the relationship between the cyborg and the surveillance state, most notably in her critically acclaimed multi-part installment Neural Architecture. More recently the artist has been exploring the nature of memory. Alzheimer's disease runs in Aschheim's family, and initially the artist embarked on her current project as a defense against forgetting. She submitted a list of her 25 favorite words to Bay Area musician Lisa Mezzacappa, who (along with other musicians) created songs for each word. Aschheim, in turn, created sculptures designed to play the songs. The idea: Our linguistic and auditory memories use separate neural pathways. By creating new sensory associations for these words, Aschheim might be able to protect them from the ravages of memory loss. The result is a series of boldly colored hanging sculptures — made of plastic tubing, LEDs, monitors and funnels — that resemble in circuitry of the human nervous system. Through May 11 at Laumeier Sculpture Park Museum Galleries, 12580 Rott Road, Sunset Hills; 314-821-1209 (www.laumeiersculpturepark.org). Hours: 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Tue.-Fri., noon-5 p.m. Sat.-Sun. (MG)
Black Line Fever! St. Louis' master of pop art, Philip Slein, opens the year with a show that features two artists whose shared interest in legend prompts them to create wildly different pictures. Bill Kreplin commands the front of the house. His cycle of restrained, black line paintings — reproduced from earlier drawings and highlighted with planes of temperate solid color — are heavy on symbolism as they reinterpret the legend of the Holy Grail in an antiseptic world of 1950s America. The rear of the gallery holds the large-scale wall drawings and attendant paintings of Cameron Fuller. A recent graduate of Washington University's M.F.A. program, Fuller uses a grab bag of media — black masking tape, India ink, acrylics — often applied directly to a wall, in order to reinterpret the phantasmagoric world of "The Willow-Wren and the Bear," a Brothers Grimm fairy tale in which the animals of the air battle the animals of the ground. Through February 23 at Philip Slein Gallery, 1319 Washington Avenue; www.philipsleingallery.com or 314-621-4634. Hours: 11 a.m.-4 p.m. Tue.-Sat. (MG)
The Embedded Image and Close Work Webster University professor and art department chair Tom Lang fills dual roles this season at Craft Alliance. Working first as a curator, Lang has compiled The Embedded Image, an international group show of contemporary papermaking. While their styles vary considerably — the show features everything from handmade books to a marvelous still-life photograph of fruit constructed from toilet paper — the artists share an interest in paper's pulpy physicality and its ability to make fleeting thoughts and ideas permanent. In the rear gallery, Lang, who teaches both printmaking and papermaking, exhibits his own work in the aptly titled Close Work. Using thickly layered pulp, Lang has created a series of paper bas-reliefs that seek to return the material to its original arboreal state. The result is a series of highly textured details — bark, branches — that Lang has highlighted with iridescent colors. Through February 24 at the Craft Alliance Gallery, 6640 Delmar Boulevard, University City; 314-725-1177 or www.craftalliance.org. Hours: 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Tue.-Thu. 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Fri.-Sat., 11 a.m.-5 p.m. Sun. (MG)
Dan Flavin: Constructed Light Limiting his palette to mass-produced fluorescent tubes of varying lengths and colors, Dan Flavin, who died in 1996, made a career distilling these ubiquitous artifacts of bureaucratic life into their purest form. The result: a body of reserved, minimalist work that at once extracts these relics from their workaday commercial context and reformulates the sites they inhabit with their refulgent glow. As installations, many of Flavin's works are site specific, leaving the stewards of his estate with the thorny question of whether in re-creating his works they are, in effect, creating new works of art. For this show, Tiffany Bell, director of the Dan Flavin catalogue raisonné project, and Steve Morse, who worked as Flavin's chief technician for many years, have chosen several works that rely more on architectural situations than on specific sites. The result is a meditative show that both accentuates and quarrels with the natural grace of their setting. Through October 4 at the Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts, 3716 Washington Boulevard; 314-754-1850 (www.pulitzerarts.org). Hours: noon-5 p.m. Wed., 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Sat. (MG)

Jennifer and I were colleagues with the Department of Sustainable Development in Nunavut in 2000/2001. While I only knew her for a relatively short period of time she had the kind of personality that leaves a lasting impression on everyone that she came into contact with."
"She had a smile that would light up a room and it had a very positive contagious effect on everyone around her. Her overall passion for work and life was unmatched. While I'm sure it's of little solace to her family at the moment, they should take some comfort in the fact that she died doing something she truly loved and her life, while far to short, had a profound impact on many people."
Carey Bonnell, St. Philips, Newfoundland
"It is a very shocking news and a very sad day day for all of us who care about nature and it's conservation. We lost some very good men who dedicated their life to the cause of nature.I express my deepest condolence to the near and dear one's of the victims and hope their soul may reast in peace."

Casondra Fontenot Ocean Springs, MS
"So sad. WWF staff are heros who were hard at thier work but unfortunately we lost them. God bless all. Save the nature."
Mr. Danuka karunaratne, Sri lanka
"To the families and friends of these great people, I will like to send my condolences. Be strong, and thank the earth to have given us people like them who loved and cared about our lovely planet."

Eugenio fazio, Catania, Italy
Words are not suffice to express ones thoughts in these circumstances. It is very very sorrowful to hear the news of the demise of defenders of natural resources because, as in recent past it was clearly evident that there is a paucity for such people in the world.
I wish to register my deepest condolonces to all of you in Nepal and at WWF. Very recently I was made aware of the tremendous work WWF is carrying for the benefit of mankind accross the globe, when I visted the Eastern African Regional Office situated in Kenya.

What are the best socks for athletes foot is a question that everybody who has athletes foot wants to know and I have the answer. There are some other things you need to know as well and I'll be sharing those further down in the article. For now, let's get right into what you want to know about athletes foot and socks. One of the best types of socks for athletes foot is diabetic socks. Yes, they do cost more, but they're the best, so this is to be expected. You might be wondering how much more and I am going to tell you. The cost of a quality pair of diabetic socks is in the $10-$15 range.
There are a couple of other choices for socks for athletes foot as well and they are based on fabric blends. The first type of socks is made of 80-90% cotton and 10-20% synthetic blend. Just so that you know this blend is also the same blend that many diabetic sock manufacturers use. The second type is socks made from moisture wicking fibers like nylon, acrylic and spandex and are also antibacterial and antifungal. If you haven't already guessed the first type is designed more for every day wear and the second for athletic activities and working out. Even after athletes foot is gone it's a good idea to keep this on going.
In addition to buying the best socks for athletes foot make sure you put on a clean pair every day and when you work out or do some form of strenuous activity that makes feet sweaty, then you need to change socks immediately afterward, so that sweat does not stay on any longer than need be. In fact, you should rinse or wash feet and dry them completely before putting on clean socks. Another good habit to get into is to alternate shoes often and not wear the same pair of shoes day after day. Lastly, don't share shoes or go barefoot in locker rooms or any public place where others walk barefoot and always dry feet completely.
When you combine the best socks for athletes foot with these other prevention tips athletes foot will be gone in no time and if you keep it up it won't come back.

Kelly Underwood is a typical University of Wisconsin-Madison junior, scrambling to get into a class she desperately needs at the start of a new school year.
But finding a seat in a chemistry class here, and at UW-La Crosse and UW-Stevens Point, is an especially high-stakes race.
Buildings with science labs constructed 40 to 50 years ago weren't designed to keep up with expanding enrollments and evolving science, UW officials say. That's especially true as the number of students pursuing science-related fields grows exponentially to match workforce opportunities, and science encompasses emerging fields such as biotechnology and nanotechnology.
To meet the challenges, UW-Madison, UW-La Crosse and UW-Stevens Point are proposing a combination of new buildings and renovations costing a total of $260.5 million - $167.5 million of that in the 2013-'15 biennium. The UW Board of Regents last month voted to move the three science building projects forward, but the state Building Commission, Gov. Scott Walker and the Legislature also would need to approve the projects before construction could begin.

Make Sure Who You Hire
Are you routinely checking the OIG's list of excluded
individuals or entities (the LEIE)? If not, it should be part of
your regular background check when you hire new employees —
and an ongoing check as part of your HME company's corporate
compliance procedures. You shouldn't limit the search only to your
employees, either. You should also check referring physicians,
sales reps and subcontractors.
The law enforcement arm of the Department of Health and Human
Services is the Office of Inspector General. Part of the OIG's
authority is to exclude individuals and entities from participation
in federally funded health care programs, such as Medicare and
Why Is This Important?
When an individual is excluded from participation, it means just
that. First, if you hire an individual or entity that has been
excluded, and they perform services for Medicare or Medicaid
patients, then those claims cannot be reimbursed. The primary
effect of exclusion is that no payment will be provided for any
items furnished, ordered or prescribed by an excluded individual or
entity. Therefore, excluded persons cannot be involved in any part
of the process of providing services to Medicare or Medicaid
Even more important, if the OIG feels that you knowingly
submitted claims for reimbursement when an excluded individual or
entity was involved, you can be subject to civil monetary penalties
(CMPs) for doing so. In fact, you can be subject to CMPs just for
hiring an excluded person — and the penalties are steep.
A provider can be charged a fine of $10,000 for each claim, as
well as three times the amount charged, if the department feels the
supplier knew or should have known the person was excluded. Is that
a risk you're willing to take? The only way for you to know for
sure is to conduct routine checks of the LEIE database.
Further, the OIG has provided guidance to medical equipment
suppliers in implementing an effective compliance program. As part
of this guidance, the OIG clearly noted that one of the dedicated
compliance officer's primary responsibilities is to ensure that all
employees and independent contractors have been checked on the OIG
exclusion list. I highly recommend not only checking the list but
keeping a copy of the search in your employee files. Then, on a
regular basis, go back and do follow-up checks.
Another reason checking the exclusion list is so important is
because of the government's increased budget for program integrity
activities such as audits and health care reform initiatives that
have led to an expressed intent on behalf of the administration to
reduce improper payments in an effort to remain budget-neutral.
The OIG has several initiatives to ensure compliance with these
requirements and has said it "is considering a national initiative
to identify and recover payments to entities that collected
reimbursement from [excluded] employees." It's important to note
that the rules apply even if the exclusion occurred while the
individual was working in another health care field and changed
Why Are People Excluded?
There are two types of exclusions: mandatory and permissive. A
mandatory exclusion means the OIG is obligated by law to exclude
the individual or entity because of a conviction of one of the
following offenses:
Medicare or Medicaid fraud, as well as any other offenses
related to the delivery of items or services under Medicare,
Medicaid, SCHIP, or other state health care programs;
Patient abuse or neglect;
Felony convictions for other health care-related fraud, theft,
or other financial misconduct; and
Felony convictions relating to unlawful manufacture,
distribution, prescription or dispensing of controlled
In situations where the OIG has discretion about whether or not
to exclude someone, it is called a permissive exclusion. These
Misdemeanor convictions related to health care fraud other than
Medicare or a state health program, fraud in a program (other than
a health care program) funded by any federal, state or local
government agency;
Misdemeanor convictions relating to the unlawful manufacture,
distribution, prescription or dispensing of controlled
Suspension, revocation or surrender of a license to provide
health care for reasons bearing on professional competence,
professional performance or financial integrity;
Provision of unnecessary or substandard services;
Submission of false or fraudulent claims to a federal health
care program;
Engaging in unlawful kickback arrangements;
Defaulting on health education loan or scholarship obligations;
and controlling a sanctioned entity as an owner, officer or
managing employee.
One of the most common reasons I have seen for physician
exclusions is for those physicians who have failed to pay back
their federal student loans. It's hard to believe, but if a doctor
in your area does this and gets excluded, and then orders equipment
for one of his or her patients and you provide it, then that claim
is not reimbursable and you can be held liable.

Billy Summers: "Warm Bodies" zombie flick is not to be taken seriously
"Zombieland" without the Star Power…
The new comedy spoof of teen angst and horror movies has made it to the screen. It's a lot of fun if you don't take it too seriously. And there is NO way to take it seriously.
With almost no "name" stars is the cast (except John Malkovich) this movie will probably we a hit with the younger-than-20 crowd. Novelist Isaac Marion is certainly no Stephenie Meyer, but he does make Zombies (in my best Oprah Winfrey voice: FAVorite monster) fun again.
While "Zombieland" had Woody Harrelson and Bill Murray, as well as Jesse Eisenberg, Emma Stone and Abigail Breslin to make it sweet, "Warm Bodies" director Jonathan Levine (who also wrote the screenplay) uses relatively fresh faces.
Nicholas Hoult ( "About a Boy," "Clash of the Titans," "X-Men: First Class") is heartthrob zombie, R, a poor undead guy looking for love. He is wonderful in the part, and does the Jesse Eisenberg narration thing to the hilt.
His romantic opposite number, Julie, is played by Teresa Palmer ("I Am Number Four," "The Sorcerer's Apprentice," "Take Me Home Tonight") who looks exactly like a blonde Bella, without the annoying lip biting. She also reminds me a bit of Alicia Silverstone from times gone by.
John Malkovich ("Con Air," "Being John Malkovich," "The Killing Fields") plays Daddy's Girl, Julie's…Daddy. But he is also the commander of the paramilitary zombie extinction unit, a bad sign for any young zombie date for his little angel.
Rob Corddry ( "The Daily Show," "Children's Hospital," "Upright Citizen's Brigade") makes a great second tier showing as zombie second banana, M, lowballing his usual over-the-top acting just enough to not steal the scenes he appears in.
A couple of third tier performances are worth mentioning with Dave Franco ( "SuperBad," "Fright Night," "21 Jump Street") human boyfriend, Perry and Analeigh Tipton ( "Crazy, Stupid Love," "Hung," "The Green Hornet") as BFF Nora. Both give solid performances in their background roles.
But this is a story about Young Love. An undead Romeo and a cute-enough-to-raise-the-dead Juliet (it is no coincidence that their names are "R" and "Julie," heck, there is even a "balcony" scene...)
It's all played for laughs (or at least sentimental snickers) and not a whole lot of "Boo!" is inserted. The beginning is a bit creepy, but nowhere near "The Walking Dead" level and most is more of the Bill Murray as Undead Bill Murray from "Zombieland."
The storyline is fine and the scenes are shot cheaply involving mostly an airport terminal and athletic field. The CGI (mainly the Harryhausen "bonies") is meant to be theatrically cheesy and the only problem is the dialogue. Sometimes (naturally) it is hard to understand the zombie grunts and belches.
Hoult as Zombie is wonderful to watch, as well as Corddry, the former a lost soul attempting to looked more dazed than dead, and the latter channeling 1950's and 60's movie zombies that George Romero would have been proud of.
Palmer's older-teen-in-conflicted-love performance is filled with "Twilight" style close-ups and batting of eyelashes, but she kicks butt when she has to. No wilting flower is she.
Go see this movie if you want a light, fresh comedy with clean language and situations, as well as simple romantic angles, topped off with a very non-scary horror theme. You'll enjoy it, if you don't take it seriously (but, I said that already)…

Well said. I agree. That is the way most of the games tend to play out.

Are you for real? Dave Berry is a humour writter. He doesn't need to get anything correct. It only has to be funny.

I did not even read the article. I am still trying to figure out what the headline says. DOES ANYONE PROOF READ ANYMORE???
When I read the headline, I heard duelling bangos playing in my head.
In 1971 the"Post Office Department" still received money from taxes so no one knew how much it actually cost to send a letter from one place to another. It didn't matter because the tax dollars kept coming in. Now the Postal Service is required by law to be self sufficient and break even. They cannot even make a profit.
I agree that Saturday delivery is not needed. It takes approval from Congress to change the days of delivery and they have not given the Post Office approval to do so yet.
Fed Ex and UPS wont deliver your 1 piece of mail to a house that is miles out into the sticks. The Post Office does it every day.
They are not all leased. Most are but not all.

Not that I wish anything bad on Bernie, but did anyone else read the headline and think " have they ever needed Bernie Fine to play well.
Well said.
I took my 18 year old son to BOA to open up his first bank account. He has what they called a paperless account. He must conduct all transactions on a computer or ATM machine.

This story has been reproduced from today's media. It does not necessarily represent the position of Liverpool Football Club.
Norwegian international defender Vegard Forren will train with Liverpool FC tomorrow - hoping to convince the Reds he is worth a permanent switch to Anfield.
Reports that a £4m deal has already been completed are premature.
But the Reds have confirmed that the 24-year-old, who has five full caps, will train at Melwood for a few days with a view to a permanent move.
Other clubs are monitoring Forren's situation and it is believed he is after regular first-team football should he make a Premier League switch.
Forren has made 179 appearances for his boyhood club Molde, winning the Tippeligaen in both of the last two seasons.
Former Liverpool and Norway defender Vegard Heggem had his say on the potential deal earlier today on Twitter.
He wrote: "Forren has done very well in the Norwegian league and for Norway. Good enough for LFC? Not sure, but an exciting signing in my opinion if it happens.
"He is a tough player, loves to get stuck in. Reads the game well, good passer of the ball but unproven at top international level."
Forren, who made his competitive international debut in October, was watched in person at least twice by Everton manager David Moyes recently.
Fulham and Belgian side Club Brugge were also linked with a move for the defender.
In November Forren, when asked about a move to England and links with the Blues, said: "I cannot stand here and say that I'm not interested - after all the Premier League is involved and Everton are a great club.
"I feel ready. I have had many great matches in the Europa League in the league and the national team.
"I have done well and it tempts me more and more to take the next step.
"I have developed myself a lot this year but right now my focus is on performing well."
