Physical activity (PA) is an effective method for secondary prevention for chronic diseases, with aerobic-based and resistance exercise shown to improve aspects of cardiovascular health (CV health) in breast cancer survivors. However, it is unknown whether combined aerobic and resistance exercise training (circuit resistance training) improves CV health in breast cancer survivors. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of circuit resistance (CRT) on measures of CV health in breast cancer survivors. The primary aims were to investigate whether 12 weeks of CRT improves CV health in women previously treated with chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy compared to non-exercising controls and whether CRT improvements for CV health are associated with cardiovascular fitness (CVF) and muscle strength. Thirty eight breast cancer survivors aged 35- 70 years with no previous resistance training experience were randomly assigned to the non-exercising control group (n=18) or the CRT intervention group (n=20). The exercise group performed CRT twice a week for 12 weeks while the control group carried on with normal life. Pulse wave analysis (PWA), pulse wave velocity (PWV), body composition, upper and lower body strength, CVF, and PA levels were measured before and after the intervention in both study groups. Between group significant differences were found for central and peripheral rate pressure product (RPP) (central RPP; intervention group 7778.6 ± 2126.3 mmHg/bpm to 7245.2 ± 1301.6 mmHg/bpm vs. control group 6908.5 ± 1265.8 mmHg/bpm to 7191.5 ± 1347.4 mmHg/bpm, p<0.05; peripheral RPP intervention group 8576.2 ± 2616.4 mmHg/bpm to 7891.7 ± 1428.8 mmHg/bpm vs. control group 7522.8 ± 1458.2 mmHg/bpm to 7818.6 ± 1526.7 mmHg/bpm, p=0.05) and peripheral mean arterial pressure (pMAP) (intervention group 92.7 ± 9.9 mmHg to 89.2 ± 8 mmHg vs. control group 90.3 ± 7.6 mmHg to 90.9 ± 9.7 mmHg, p=0.05). Between group significant differences were also found for CVF; V ̇O2max (intervention group 29.0 ± 4.2 ml.kg-1.min-1 to 33.6 ± 3.7 ml.kg-1.min-1 vs. control 28.8 ± 3.8 ml.kg-1.min-1 to 27.8 ± 2.4 ml.kg-1.min-1, p<0.01), distance walked (intervention group 582.5 ± 108.0 m to 725.5 ± 82.7 m vs. control group 539.4 ± 100.6 m to 546.7 ± 121.3 m, p<0.01), maximal speed (intervention group 4.4 ± 0.9 km to 5.5 ± 0.7 km vs. control group 4.0 ± 0.7 km to 3.9 ± 0.5 km, p<0.01), rate of perceived exertion (RPE) (intervention group 5.6 ± 1.6 to 4.4 ± 1.0 vs. control group 4.2 ± 1.5 to 4.2 ± 1.0, p<0.05) and muscle strength; one repetition maximum (1RM) bench press (intervention group 22.7 ± 6.3 kg to 27.5 ± 5.6 kg vs. control group 22.1 ± 4.6 kg to 22.6 ± 5.3 kg, p<0.01), knee extension (intervention group 69.9 ± 27.2 Nm to 85 ± 19.7 Nm vs. control group 76.4 ± 22.8 Nm to 76.8 ± 28.3 Nm, p<0.05). No between group significant differences were found for central systolic blood pressure (cSBP), peripheral systolic blood pressure (pSBP), peripheral diastolic blood pressure (pDBP), arterial stiffness measures, hand grip strength and body composition. No significant between group correlation was found between CV health and the association with CVF and muscle strength. Twelve weeks of CRT is an effective exercise modality for improving CVF and muscle strength in breast cancer survivors. It is also effective in decreasing measures of myocardial work load and mean arterial pressure (MAP). 2015-09-17T20:42:08Z Sons of Samoa: The Corporeal Economy of American Samoa Gridiron Football http://hdl.handle.net/10523/5863 Sons of Samoa: The Corporeal Economy of American Samoa Gridiron Football 2015 Beissel, Adam The United States territory of American Samoa produces more National Football League (NFL) gridiron players per capita than any other place in the world, and it is estimated that a young boy born to Samoan parents is as much as 56 times more likely to 'make it' to the NFL. With some notable exceptions, conventional explanations in the literature and popular news media have sought to explain the phenomenon of American Samoan gridiron football according to three dominant understandings of gridiron football expertise: Samoans are naturally big and possess a physiological and genetic predispositions to football expertise (biological); the cultural values and traditions of fa'a Samoa engenders a work ethic that results in the 10,000 hours of deliberate training on the training ground (socio-cultural); and global systems of athletic labour markets have created a set on conditions in which core nations (i.e. the U.S.) exploit economically depressed and underserved populations in peripheral nation-states (i.e. American Samoa) of human capital and labour (economic). This interdisciplinary study of the active body offers an empirically-driven, theoretically informed, and methodologically rigorous investigation of the ways and extents to which governance structures (economic, cultural, and political) operate upon, and are negotiated within, the lived experiences of aspirant high school gridiron football players in American Samoa. Drawing upon interviews, ethnographic fieldwork, narrative analysis, and multiple secondary data sources (including demographic and population data, labour economics data, popular media discourses and texts, and historical documents and oral histories), I aim to reconstruct the conjunctural relations within which the Samoan athletic body is constituted by, and constitutive of, broader political formations and asymmetrical power relations. I develop a theory of the corporeal economy of American Samoan football in which the active Samoan footballing body is triangulated at the broad intersection of the dialectic interplay(s) between biopolitical, geopolitical, and cultural political structures, discourses, and formations of power that influence upon on how the body is: 1) produced on the field through regimes of discipline and technologies of power (the kinesthetic body); 2) becomes economically and socially mobile through exchanges in global athletic labour markets (the labouring body) and; 3) is understood in the making of the self and a expressions of identity, citizenship, and cultural belonging (the mediated body). In the process, I provide a more complex, nuanced, and interdisciplinary rejoinder to the question of the phenomenon of American Samoan gridiron football, and in a broader sense, I articulate a more complex, critical, and experiential study of the of the interactions and interrelationship between the biological, the cultural, and the economic in the development of athletic talent expertise. In turn, this project provides a contextual analysis of American Samoan culture, history, and society within, and through, a conjunctural and interdisciplinary reading of the Samoan gridiron football body. 2015-09-03T02:26:24Z Grappling with The 'Way of Gentleness': An Examination of Capital in New Zealand Judo http://hdl.handle.net/10523/5860 Grappling with The 'Way of Gentleness': An Examination of Capital in New Zealand Judo 2015 Kumate, James Masashi A global diffusion of interest in martial arts and combat sports has increased the profile of combative physical cultures (CPC) in Western society. As a result, Asian physical cultural practices are becoming increasingly significant in the lived experiences of many around the world as practitioners engage with the physical and cultural aspects of these combative subcultures. However, relatively few studies have examined the localization of Asian physical cultural practices in Western contexts. This thesis, through an embodied ethnography, participant observations, and interviews, investigates the way in which judo (a globally popular Japanese CPC) is understood, negotiated, and enacted in New Zealand. It specifically examines the development of 'judo capital'. The uses of judo were numerous and varied amongst participants, who claimed the capital valued in judo was distinctive to other CPC. They understood their corporeal capital as one of efficiency, reason, and 'intellect' whereas an overly instrumental use of the body or a reliance on strength and physical force was not valued. Many also noted how judo has a culturally informed 'deeper game', and engagement requires an amount of cultural capital. To these participants, judo was more than a physical activity; it was also a developmental and educational practice with benefits beyond the dōjō, leading them to active involvement in maintaining cultural authenticity. This understanding reflects their particular middle-class and middle-aged lifestyle where the symbolic and social benefits of participation are valued above the physical. There is, however, considerable complexity in the ways judo is used and the types of capital valued, further reinforcing the need for context-specific examinations of combative physical cultures. 2015-09-01T22:07:01Z Mahinga kai- He tāngata. Mahinga kaitiaki- He mauri. http://hdl.handle.net/10523/5852 Mahinga kai- He tāngata. Mahinga kaitiaki- He mauri. 2015 Phillips, Chanel Mahinga kai (food gathering sites and practices) emerged at the beginning of the creation narratives when the Māori world was first formed and atua (deity, Gods) roamed upon the face of the land. Mahinga kai sites are imbued with practices, embedded with whakapapa (genealogy), and clothed with knowledge that have implications for how we view and understand Māori Physical Education (PE) and health. Māori PE and health is rooted in a Māori worldview, guided by the relevance of the Treaty of Waitangi, inherent to an holistic approach to health, and connected to the natural environment. The aim of this research was to critically evaluate the emergent discourses of mahinga kai (and its subsequent discourses) against the recontextualised thinking about Māori PE and health based on the synergies of Kaupapa Māori theory, whakapapa and Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). These theoretical and methodological frameworks are utilised to further the goals and aspirations of the Māori community of Kāti Huirapa ki Puketeraki hapū (sub-tribe) in Karitāne that I worked alongside of, privileging mātauranga (Māori knowledge) and legitimising a Māori worldview. The methods of the research were: semi-structured interviews (4), wānanga kōrero (3 group interviews), reflective pieces (9), and a case study with Kāti Huirapa ki Puketeraki hapū. There were multiple discourses of mahinga kai that emerged from key creation narratives, the Treaty of Waitangi translation texts and Waitangi Tribunal texts. The emergent discourses of mahinga kai were mahinga kai as: whakapapa; whanaungatanga (relationships); tikanga (custom) and the subsequent discourse of tapu (sacred, set apart); mātauranga; identity; taonga (treasure) and the ensuing discourses of forestry and fisheries; kaitiakitanga (protection, guardianship) and the succeeding discourses of mauri (life force) and kaitiaki (guardian) and; rangatiratanga (chieftainship) and the consequent discourse of mana (authority, power). The operationalisation of the discourses of mahinga kai were evident in the Ki Uta Ki Tai case study and illustrated the importance of connecting to one another, the communities we serve, and the environment we are a part of. This thesis argues that the emergent discourses of mahinga kai, embedded in a framework of cosmogonic whakapapa, are key to understanding and exploring notions of Māori PE and health and has benefits for Māori and non-Māori alike engaging with this notion as they learn the importance of connecting to people and place. Knowledge gained from this research will: assist communities who are wanting to implement similar strategies to their resource management plans; provide evidence that supports a mutually beneficial relationship (partnership) between University staff and students, and their local communities and; recontextualise how we think and view Māori PE and health. 2015-08-27T03:37:04Z A school's experience of the attempted implementation of an assisted road crossing initiative: A case study http://hdl.handle.net/10523/5668 A school's experience of the attempted implementation of an assisted road crossing initiative: A case study 2015 Pearson, Maria New Zealand schools can elect to implement school traffic safety programmes such as walking school buses (WSBs) and assisted road crossings as a means to enhance child safety on the home to school journey. These initiatives require initial collaboration between the school and associated agencies. Schools and parent volunteers are often left to assume responsibility for operating and maintaining the programme. Each school community is different and will have site-specific needs and varying access to personnel and financial resources. In addition, the policy requirements and broader goals of the government and agencies, as well as the neoliberal educational environment, may have an influence on the school's ability and willingness to introduce an initiative. Few studies have investigated the experience of key individuals representing schools and agencies and their perceptions concerning the implementation of school traffic safety programmes. This research focused on a case study of a Dunedin primary school's attempt to install a road crossing initiative operated by parent volunteers. The purpose of the study was to explore the experiences and perceptions of the school and the agencies involved in the process of installing the road crossing initiative, in order to determine the factors that affected the successful implementation of the crossing. A qualitative research approach was used. The methods for data collection included open-ended interviews, document analysis, and the researcher's reflexive diary. Interviews were conducted with the school principal, board of trustees chairperson, and a parent volunteer. Representatives from agencies including the Dunedin City Council, New Zealand Police, Ministry of Education, and Sport Otago were approached for comment via email. Data were transcribed from the taped interview sessions, and an inductive process was used to identify categories and themes from the data. In this case study the school was unable to install the adult-assisted road crossing. Findings revealed that a lack of parent volunteers was a significant factor affecting the initiative's success, thus schools should work to strengthen the school-parent partnership. The processes that schools are expected to follow when installing road safety initiatives clearly do not work for every school, and each one has unique factors that may impact on its ability to maintain road safety initiatives. 2015-05-17T22:23:11Z "The First Fifteen" : Understanding the conspiracy of silence of gay rugby players in Aotearoa/New Zealand http://hdl.handle.net/10523/5468 "The First Fifteen" : Understanding the conspiracy of silence of gay rugby players in Aotearoa/New Zealand 2004 LeBlanc, Roger Gerard Joseph To date, only three gay male athletes have ever come out publicly during their professional sporting career in team sports. This reflects the pervasiveness of homophobia in sport and its power to silence and render invisible gay athletes. Moreover, it leads to a number of important sociological, political, moral and philosophical questions. Research that seeks to understand the gay athlete's perspective on the existence of silence and invisibility is made all the more pertinent as gay rights and equality are currently manifested within social institutions other than mainstream sport. In order to fill the void of knowledge regarding the silence and invisibility of gay men within mainstream sport, the questions: "What meanings from their perspective do gay rugby players give to their experience of participating in mainstream rugby?' and "How do these meanings create barriers or opportunities for their survival in rugby?" directed this social phenomenological study of gay rugby union players in Aotearoa/New Zealand. The data arose from in-depth interviews. An emergent analysis of data found that players' meanings of silence were predominantly informed by the fear of public opinion. The players' negotiation of fear emerged as they strategically integrated all aspects of their identity into their everyday worlds. The key findings of this study transpired when the participants' meanings of silence were located using a Conspiracy of Silence model which guided the research. The reconstruction of these meanings generated a better understanding of the Conspiracy of Silence phenomenon surrounding gay rugby players. 2015-02-20T03:21:11Z Toward Inclusive New Zealand Dance Education Strategies http://hdl.handle.net/10523/5445 Toward Inclusive New Zealand Dance Education Strategies 2015 Trafford, Jasmine Lee Inclusion of students with impairments in New Zealand (NZ) dance education needs attention. The aim of this research is to explore how curriculum can better ensure inclusion of all children into dance education. Data is collected using the qualitative research approaches document review and preliminary movement research. I focus on official documents such as: the Ministry of Education owned New Zealand Curriculum (2007), Arts Online (2007b), The Arts in the New Zealand Curriculum (2000), and Bronwyn Hayward's New Zealand Disability and Dance Strategy (2010). These documents are analysed to identify curriculum discourses and how the doctrines might better prepare teachers for meeting the demands of different abilities in dance. A critical review of these texts examines barriers or enablers for the participation of students with impairments. Attention is given to how the documents guide school teachers' ideologies and practice and might influence the culture of education. This study provides insights into possible curriculum reform, and for improving teacher education. 2015-01-28T19:33:46Z Women's Experiences of Becoming Elite Track and Field Coaches in New Zealand http://hdl.handle.net/10523/5431 Women's Experiences of Becoming Elite Track and Field Coaches in New Zealand 2015 Merrilees, Joan Cecily Elite coaching is predominantly a male vocation with many of New Zealand's most successful women's teams being coached by men, such as the national women's rugby and hockey teams. Research has identified a number of individual, organisational, and structural constraints to women's progression in coaching. The aim of this study was to examine women's experiences of becoming elite coaches within track and field in New Zealand. The focus was on professional development, and how this was managed; by the coach; the national organisation; or a combination of both. The study gained insight into the complexities associated with women becoming elite coaches; specifically, the complexities associated with professional development for women elite coaches within New Zealand's gendered coaching environment. The methods used in the study were face to face semi structured interviews with three participants who are elite coaches. Two themes around professional development emerged. Firstly, professionalism in coaching and secondly, Athletics New Zealand's professional development and support. The study showed there were several understandings by the participant coaches in regard to both professionalism and Athletics New Zealand's professional development and support. Within New Zealand's gendered track and field elite coaching community, men are privileged over women. This research found that within this community there is little sharing of knowledge or support from the professional coaches, with the participants preferring to gain their knowledge and support from their global networks. 2015-01-21T01:36:16Z

But c'mon, George: If you can afford the fancy hotel, you can afford the room service. Besides, what's more fun than getting all those little jars of jam that come with room service muffins?

We booked with Beat the Broucher for a one week break to Turkey from 17th to 24th September 2012 we paid £544.00 with flights but spent another £70 plus having to eat out every day.
The two reviews we read about the food being rubbish was true. On the first night we were presented with raw chicken by day 4 the cook had decided to re-fry the chips from the day before. After complaining to the hotel owner who vowed to kick the cook to the kerb we were provided with a lovely fish supper for one night. Unfortunately this was just for us and not for the other guest. If you don't complain you don't get. The hotel owner was very keen to rectify any short comings and anything we raised he corrected. I believe other guest may have just complained amongst themselves and when the hotel owner was not there things were not addressed.
There was curdle milk put out for breakfast and a juice machine which would empty onto the floor when you tried to use it. It took 4 days before they took this out of service.
The free drinks ended at 9 p.m. and there was no tea making facilities in the rooms which meant getting up and going to the dinning room first thing in the morning.
Lunch was only served for an hour and the snacks served twice a day never happened.
As for the facilities for your all inclusive they are not included. This did not include the roof top restuarant which the reception said was not open due to bad weather. At 28 degrees I could hardly say it was bad weather. The roof terrace bar only opened after 2 p.m. and not on every day. No mini bar in your room only a fridge which was handy for storing the booze from duty free. The sauna and steam room were never available. The equipment was so old in the gym that the treadmill was manually operated and only had one piece of rubber to run on that you would have had to hopped to use it.
The lights on the stairs down from the first floor was broken so we slipped on the stairs several times.
There was a family of six cats which occuppied the patio by the dinining room. They were very well fed as the guest use to feed them food from the restuarant. Generally most of the guest ate out in the evenings and at lunch time so the dinning room was empty. I really believe this was due to the bad food.
And don't bother paying for a land view room as you are likely to be placed facing the main road or the building site which was the garden. I understand that the owner of the hotel has sold this off.
The staff were really helpful and pleasant the the hygiene was good.
All in all the main let down is the food and someone needs to get a gun and shoot out two of the stars on top of the building.
Be careful of the competetion between the holiday reps. I believe they work on commission and we were caught up in argument between Alex our official rep and Frankie who turned up early and advised that he was our rep and tried to sell us excursions. We went on a great day out call Dolphine Beach which included transport, free drink and fruit place for 15 TL. Maurice the owner is very wellcoming as is the staff.
If the hotel was available as half board or room only they could keep 3 stars.

Lipsmackers do not moisturize and leave a wax like coating on my lips. The only redeeming quality that Lipsmackers have is that they taste good. Using them reminds me of junior high school.

What more can I say than the other reviewers here? Use it so often I haven't even thought to review it unti I saw another review for it here today, lol! Cheap, every flavour you can think of, all smell/taste declicious, all of them either leave a healthy shine or sheer tint of colour; Dr. Pepper and Cherry Coke are my fave MLBB products, and I LOVE the sparkling fruit flavours, especially strawberry! Lip Smackers are the first lip product I ever bought, eay back in Gr. 8, and I will continue to buy them forever!

When I was on vacation last summer, God forbid, I left my lip balms at home and ran to Target to pick up something and got this in Watermelon. I used Bonne Bell Lip Smackers when I was a teenager and the scent of this luscious watermelon brought back fond memories. I'm so glad I found you again, Bonne Bell!

This is really good stuff! Unlike some other brands, you don't need to reapply it all the time. It is shiny but not too noticable, which I like. Plus, all the flavors smell great! Even my boyfriend likes to wear my lip smackers. :) I just got cookies 'n cream and it reminds me of dessert.

Mail or drop off donations to the Church Office (PO Box 799, Neenah, WI 54957) or place in the Sunday offering. (Please note: gifts are NOT tax-deductible)
Additionally, Boldt, Jon Stoffel's employer, is supplying t-shirts with a favorite Bible verse of the Stoffel family to sell as a fundraiser to help them with tuition at Fox Valley Christian Academy in the coming year(s). What a wonderful act of generosity from Boldt!

We combined a trip to the valley with an organized ride (Tour of Napa), as well as a camping trip aftewards. Washington Street Lodging was the perfect location, giving us a base minutes from wineries, restaurants, and everything in nearby St Helena,Yountville, and Napa. We were able to walk to the mud bath spas, Calistoga Roastery, and the restaurants and shops on Lincoln. The cottages were wonderful, and in the evening we chatted with guests from all over the US and even Europe. Plus, our little dogs loved it and met other well behaved pet guests. Having the extra space in a cottage instead of a hotel room allowed us to store our bikes and gear, and we ended up taking a breathtaking ride recommended by the Calistoga Bikeshop up through the vineyards and into the hills.
We had such a great time in fact, we delayed our camping trip to stay an extra night! The innkeepers were very gracious, making sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive at all. If you love the outdoors and really want to enjoy the treats the valley has to offer, Washington St Lodging is a perfect getaway.

Great experience, wonderful staff & foodPosted on 03 / 20 / 2014
Standard Cabramatta style restaurant decor, but the staff go above and beyond to please and help and answer questions, they were so friendly to us, (they even sat down to explain to me how to cook okra!) and stayed open later than their normal time to accommodate our group of 4, including 1 vegan and they explained EVERY ONE of the dishes that were or could be made vegan for us!
Try the sushi rolls, they are presented so beautifully! Prices only slightly higher when comparing to Loving Hut etc but this is the only Malaysian veg restaurant in Cabramatta, and at the end of the day the prices aren't very high at all compared to most restaurants, I don't think $12 a plate is a bad price when you would normally pay $20-$25 standard elsewhere! We will definitely be back, great experience!

22 reviews | 3 out of 5
just bought it two weeks ago , and my hair its very curly . so i decide to try n it actually work . my hair is not frizzy for a week now until my next shampoo. but i love it . i also try the 3 days straight , when i use the flat iron it make my hair smooth n not frizzy.
I absolutely love this flat iron!! works great, this takes half the time to straighten myy hair than myy last one and it leaves my hair soft and shiney(: it also is light and myy straight hair lasts through the dayy without getting frizzy.
When you use this straightner it's hard not to turn it off or turn the temperature down when gripping the handle. It was poorly designed and I returned it.
The on/off switch gets pushed as you are trying to use the straightener and it doesn't straighten very well at all! Taking it back!!
I bought this straight iron 2 days ago and I am returning it. The on/off switch is on the handle where you hold it and I kept turning it off while trying to use it. It also seemed to make my hair drier even though I use a heat protector. I've used Conair in the past and had much better results.
love the straightener., great product!! .....but come on Walmart .....you shipped just one in a HUGE cardboard box that was big enough for at least fifty of them!
The only thing that I don't like is were the switches are it make it hard to straightener your hair without turning it off by accident other then that its a great product I have used it once so far
and made my hair feel so soft and shiny. Thanks John Frieda.
Doesnt heat well. Cheap product
It works well.but No instructions or recommendations included
This flat iron works great! Flat irons super good leaves hair soft and smooth I highly recommend it.
We had a our old flatiron for 5 yrs and it recently broke. I was disappointed until I found John Friedas' flatiron at Walmart. I didn't know anything about John Frieda or the new flatirons on the market but took a chance and so glad I did. I have "problem hair" which means, even after I flatiron my hair, it will get frizzy later bec of humidity. After I use the John Frieda flatiron, my hair is super soft and silky and does not get frizzy. Even my daughter noticed the difference. Thank you, Robin
This product did exactly as it says: super-stick-straight hair! I've never found a better iron!!
I have severely damaged hair from a botched Brazilian Keratin Treatment, so I try to avoid heat products as much as possible but from time to time, need to straighten it. The last 3 straightening irons I've bought would literally drag across my hair ripping every weak end and strand out. So to say the least my ends continued to look very fried no matter how many products I used to smooth them. I recently switched to the Full Repair line and was pleased with the results so I decided to give their straightener a try. No snagging, ripping or breaking of my damaged ends! Sure the on/off switch is in an odd position but it was truly worth finding a new way to hold it. I haven't felt this confident since before the bkt. I threw every other product and straightener out I could find in my bathroom and have began restocking with John Frieda products only.
I've had my straightener for almost 5 years now, and it still works as amazing as it did when i first purchased it. I cannot wait to get the hair dryer and try it.
Product is one of the best that I have ever tried. BUT control switches are in a very awkward place on the handle as you constantly are changing the temp or turning it off. Redesign on control switch needed.
I bought the straightening iron because of what it does and it proved to be exactly what it described except that the controls are in the wrong place, each time I used the iron, I would touch the controls and change the temperature of it. I worked around it and was able to finish and I love the end result. I would recommend this product but the manufacturer should look into changing the placement of the controls.
Why would they make a flat iron with buttons on the barrel? Every time you use it you change the temperature inadvertently. It's a great flat iron but the design was not well thought out
This product is very hard to hold w/o accidently turning the temp down- if you dont keep watching it the temp can turn too low. Too easy to drop because you have to hold too close to the heating element. You have to hit the off button several times to get it to turn off
I've recently purchased the Sleek Finish flat iron, model JFS1.....and it works fine as long as you don't touch the controls on the handle - which is impossible to do!! Whomever did the design for this didn't think about FORM & FUNCTION!! I turn it on and it heats up quickly, but since the on/off switch is also part of the temperature switch - guess what happens? You either end up turning the iron off while you are working on your hair, or the temperature doesn't stay at the spot that you set it on. I am not happy with this purchase, but since I am on unemployment I don't have lots of money to spend on yet another replacement - as this was a replacement for my other flat iron that died after several years. I think that the company really ought to have REAL STYLISTS try out the products they are going to sell to see if there are any function issues with it - and IF they HAD done just that....this particular brand shouldn't have made it to market! POOR DESIGN!!! It would be great if the company would issue everyone who has bought this piece of junk, a new one that doesn't have function problems like this brand does!! WHY in the world would you put the long skinny button the whole length down where you hold the implement and squeeze together the wand? THUMBS DOWN on this product! I wish I hadn't wasted my money on it and bought some other brand that the controls don't get accidentally pushed all the time while using it. :(
I go through cheaper straighteners fairly often, so I decided to splurge a little and get something that might perform better and last longer. I have been very impressed with John Frieda products (I swear by the 3 Day Straight spray), so I thought this straightener would be a knock-out. My first problem with it is that the control buttons are in an awful location and it is absolutely impossible to hold without lowering the heat or turning it off completely. This is terribly annoying and I wish I had returned it after the first time I used it for that reason alone. I am also extremely disappointed in the overall performance of this tool. I thought being by such a good brand and for the price that my hair would look much better--shinier and straighter. It is really no different than a tool half its price, and in fact I don't even think it straightens my hair as well as the last brand that I went with. I am very, very, very disappointed and regret falling for the 'better name must mean better product' and 'highest price must mean more for your money' ideologies.

A word I've not seen for years.
"Even his voice was gentle. He'd had the quinsy and swollen
glands when he was young, he told me, and it had left him with
a weak throat, and a hesitating, whispering fashion of speech."
quin·sy ( P ) Pronunciation Key (kwnz)
Acute inflammation of the tonsils and the surrounding tissue, often leading to the formation of an abscess.
[Middle English, from Medieval Latin quinancia, and Old French quinancie both from Greek kunankh, dog quinsy, dog-collar : kun, kun-, dog; see kwon- in Indo-European Roots + ankhein, to squeeze; see angh- in Indo-European Roots.]

Videos have started hitting the net from the Tokyo Game Show 2006, and they're already impressing us. It's nice to see so many new RPGs coming out. Here are some of the best for your viewing pleasure.
Lost Odyssey gameplay -- to quote Keanu Reeves, "Whoa." FMV RPG? OMG! FTW!
Blue Dragon gameplay -- this is entirely drool-worthy. Imagine Akira Toriyama characters getting swept up in a Miyazaki epic.
Trusty Bell: Chopin's Dreams trailer -- looks beautiful, but we need a Japanese translator to know what's going on.
Lost Planet trailer -- a mech that transforms into a super high-tech snowmobile thing? Woot.
God Hand gameplay -- a spanking good time was had by all, except maybe the women getting spanked in this clip.
Dead or Alive Xtreme 2 trailer -- more beach volleyball, women in bikinis, and plenty of bounce. Next-generation bounce. In the ball. Duh.
Xbox 360 HD-DVD demonstration -- it may not sound that sexy, but it sure looks it.

Iraq an economic Study

I'm on Recaps again. Sort of rode in on tlar's coattails this time, though. Good stuff.

TLAR: here's that nasty ole constitutional issues starting to raise it's ugly head. The parliament meets next Tuesday. Their first order of business will not be to defend Shabibi but rather to defend its own constitutional rights.
Parliament is endowed with many rights one of which is to make decisions on who or how the CBI operates. It is their right to decide who will run the CBI and it is their right to remove a govenor when he is not performing his expected duties.
It looks as though they are tired of Maliki using the constitution as a proof source only when it benifits him and as a doormat when it does not. Brace yourselfs. I see a major lot of news coming out Iraq concerning their constitution starting on Tuesday.
I see the papers reporting the blow by blow action on who really controls Iraq, parliament or Maliki. This is a battle that if parliament really does want to try to re-aquire their constitutional rights and reverse what has been going on since they recessed, they must fight.
Maliki cannot win this fight unless he uses his military or secret forces to stop it. IMHO there are 13,000 reasons why this is not a reasonable choice for him. Parliament either reasserts its constitutional rights immediately when they return or they might as well learn to curtsey and bow in Maliki's presence.
I think they know this. If they don't fight for their rights and they let Maliki run roughshod over the constitution, then Iraq will become a one man show. At least itt ought to make for an interesting show.

04/11/2012 (20:00 pm) BAGHDAD / Mohammad Sabah
Accused the legal parliamentary coalition of state law, led by Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki by trying to control the administration's central bank, but noted that al-Maliki violating the constitution for his dismissal Bank Governor Sinan al-Shabibi, inasmuch as it is a valid House of Representatives, while stressing Kurdish lawmaker that the issue of impeachment Shabibi will be put to a debate in parliament on Tuesday.
In an interview with the "long", said Prince Kanani member parliamentary legal committee that the issue of the nomination of a new governor of the Central Bank on behalf not discussed within the National Alliance, pointing out that this matter "is limited, however, Prime Minister and the Dawa Party."
He added that "al-Maliki put two names on the political blocs to agree on one and two Ahmed ÇáČŃíĺí deputy central bank governor, Ali Abdul-Amir Allawi, former finance minister, and between" The State of Law coalition wants to convince the Iraqi List, creating a balance with the Ministry of Finance, and the Kurdistan Alliance, who is the Ministry of trade, stressing that it has become a partisan issue Mhassat and Ktheloah.

SCALP: Parliament actually need to turn up to win this fight....we know they dont like to do that.....shhould be interesting to see the turn out numbers for this tuesday session....wonder if we get a full hhouse for the first time in ages.
one point...i think its about time they changed the majority voting system to one of majaority of the people that turned out....real tired of these clowns walking out and stalling stuff every time it doesnt go their way............the vote should still be taken. If they did this you watch that parliament have full attendance from that point on with no walk outs.
A walk out should = a loss of vote imo, but the vote still goes ahead....summin needs to be done to motivate these clowns to do some work.
TLAR: Scalp, this should be a defining moment for parliament and for Iraq. I really hope it is not a bunch of no shows but remember, parliament was put on recess by Nujaifi because the State of Law party said they were staying away until after the feast and that meant parliament did not have a quorum.
SCALP: Yep I remember, this is why something needs to change in how they vote on stuff so that people like M or A can not stop it by just not turning up....these votes shhould still go ahead....watch the massive and instant change in Iraq if they did this, so much work would get done.
Im hhoping I dont have to care about the clowns anymore, I tend to just watch cbi now that they removed shabby...hhe seemed to be the only obstacle to me other than removing m, they didnt have the balls to remove M so removed shabby instead...this is just my opinion though on whats going on there.
The stand off between shabby and M over the power share head to come to a head at some point....this is what we are seeing now. Shabby said he wouldnt rv until power share was done, M pretended he didnt care about the RV...we had a long stand off...shabby didnt waiver so M got tired and just get him up to get him removed. JMO
REVBO: He added that "al-Maliki put two names on the political blocs to agree on one and two Ahmed ÇáČŃíĺí deputy central bank governor, Ali Abdul-Amir Allawi, former finance minister, and between..."
It's gonna be Allawi. Parliament is a bunch of no-show nancy boys, and Maliki gets his way. Every time. He will again this time. And it won't be so bad.
TLAR: If there is a strong showing of the MP's not in the SOL party it will be enough to change things. There are 325 MP's
Scalp: Man my typing Stinks today...doesnt help that im missing my G and H keys :P
I quite like the sound of this Allawi geezer revbo... I just hope whoever it is they crack on and give us what were all waiting for
TLAR: I hope your wrong ReVbo. At least this question shoul be anwered by our Tuesday am. Will there be enough of them to stand up for their right?
REVBO: I kinda hope I am, too, tlar, but only because I'd like to see Parliament grow a pair, not because of the nominee, who I think is fantastic. Alas, I am not optimistic on the first item. But, hey, the consolation prize is, we get a world class central bank governor from the Dawa gangsters, and if he'll pull the trigger, he's alright by me.
TLAR: It sounds to me ReVbo that you're only interested in the money. Ha Ha
ReVbo: Guilty as charged. I want Iraqis to be free, and for democracy to thrive there, but it seems as if that's not really in the cards right now. Maybe some day, but if they're going to have a dictator, I want one who will allow Iraq to at least be prosperous. I'm just hoping, at this point, Maliki is more of an Augusto Pinochet- than a Hugo Chavez-type dictator, and I think he is.
WGW242: I'm with ReVbo. No one else cares about the Iraqi people, as evidenced by the response to Dr. Shabibi's plight. They are not willing to make their democracy work at this time. Maybe sometime in the future we will move from Dictator to Democracy. In the meantime, an Rv will help the people in spite of Maliki.
Tlar Once the dinar does its thing I could care less about Iraq or Maliki. I said before when it RVs I don't want to know anything beyond the last bank I visit and I intend to never, never, never read another thing about Iraq. Besides I don't think you can even get the news on the beaches of Belize. The only thing I will be interested in is the exact location of the bartender as I hope to get another drink.
BlueyesinLevis I thought Ali Allawi is the cousin of Ilyad Allawi.. and the son in law of Chalabi.. hence he would be acceptable to the kurds and the List? And his resume looks impressive.
SHAUND2073: That is my overstanding to Blue eyes.. and he is qualified actually!! wow a new concept for them to put in an offical who is actually has background in that field , and I beleive that they are going to do that not only to please the parties but remember, this is on the mainstream media but wouldnt you think the offical has to be acceptable to the IMF. I mean they will be his boss.
TLAR: Iraqiya, the Sadrist and Kurdistan are all interested in the independance of the CBI, The Sadrists have already stated that they intend not to vote for Maliki in the next election. The have also stated that the CBI must be independent. If these three blocks show all locked in step along with just a few disinchanted MP's from other blocks, Maliki looses. They have the votes. Maliki cannot depend on the NA to sustain from voting as a solution because of the Sadrists who are counted as part of their membership. In addition many in the NA that are not Sadrists are also disinchanted with Maliki. Tuesday could be a big day.
TGIRL: Sadrists: Dawa party has a monopoly on the central bank governor candidates
01:08:05 / 11/2012 Khandan - The Prince Kanani member of the Legal Committee of Parliament MP for the Liberal block of the Sadrist movement, that the issue of the nomination of a new governor of the Central Bank on behalf not discussed within the National Alliance, pointing out that this matter "is limited, however, Prime Minister and the Dawa Party."

Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Stunning scenery and good game play, looks a bit like water lollies.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I finished it.
I have to admit, this was the most intelligent game ever. It was simple, non-violent, creative, and original.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Great Game but...
Its a little confusing with not much a story line. Fun to not shoot anything and I like a little non-violence game.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Where to start?
First off, the artwork was incredible, many say that it's all about the gameplay but great graphics contribute so much to the user's enjoyment of the game.
The music complemented the game and flowed with the relaxed gameplay style, it was a great choice of music.
The gameplay was well suited to the adventure-platforming genre and it, at times, challenged the player and at other times just viewing the beautiful landscape.
The concept of the game was very original. It was very well made, however, it got slightly tedious at times not being able to get over objects until the 4th or 5th try.
Very good, favourited, 93/100 A*
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Great work !!
This game is not "sad", it is just sooo peaceful, love it. Great animation too!
Unfortunately i got stucked after the house of the old man wanting us to bring back his glasses. There's a big rock wall; i tried to jump through the roof of the old man's house but it doesnt seem possible. What should we do?
Keep going with amazing works like this one!

Thursday, May 17, is the International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia (IDAHOT) and this year Care2 is bringing you personal stories from around the world on the fight to eliminate anti-LGBT prejudice and discrimination. For our complete coverage, please click here.
At some point in their lives nearly everyone has either been the victim of discrimination and prejudice or witnessed it happen to someone else, but the funny thing is it can be hard to describe. How it makes you feel. How it impacts you. How it puts you under an immense pressure to change and conform, and how when you can't change you feel like there must be something wrong with you.
Youth Line has released the following video talking about what it is to be the victim of discrimination. You might just recognize some of the feelings it describes:
