How can I get my baby to sleep without swaddling him?
My 5-month-old loves being swaddled -- in fact, she won't sleep otherwise. How can we kindly help her kick the habit? Our pediatrician told us to put her in her crib and let her cry it out, but this seems pretty harsh. Is there a less drastic method? She's getting too big for her blankets and she kicks out of the ones we have.

My daughter (now 3 years old) LOVED being swaddled. She HAD to be swaddled super tight to sleep. When she outgrew baby blankets I went the the craft store, bought fabric and made bigger ones. We even safty pinned them to keep them tight and secure. She slept 12 hours nights from about 2 months old without a peep... EVER! she was swaddled like this at night until she was almost 2 years old. We weened her by just wrapping the blankets around her. Then leaving her arms out and wrapping it around her under her arms. And now she sleeps in a full size bed with blankets like everyone else. And is still a fantastic sleeper. It doesnt hurt them to be swaddled, some babies and even toddlers NEED that to feel secure... so why not? If they sleep good swaddled, buy or make bigger blankets and keep swaddling.posted 11/27/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
Our now 2 1/2 year old was the same way and it made for a VERY hard transition. We went to the store to buy something, anything to help. Even though I think she was at least 5 months, we found that a sleep positioner (small elevated padded bedding with velcro sides to hold baby in place) was a great transition tool. It hugged her in place making her crib feel smaller without swaddling her with blankets.posted 10/12/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
We tried to swaddle our 3 month old last night with one arm out. He slept for 4.5 hours and then was up for 4 more hours. We'd go in and settle him down and then lay him down and he'd cry more. Then we just put a blanket around him. The problem is he can roll over in his swaddle onto his face and his ped. says we need to d/c use of the swaddleme. He absolutely won't fall asleep without it. I am so tired and he is overtired now, as a result of the 4 hours of not sleeping.posted 09/13/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
Just thought I share my experience. My daughter is 6 months and always needed to be swaddled. I am trying to wean her off now because she managed to roll over on her tummy swaddled which was scary. But anyways, what I wanted to share is about the swaddle products, I tried almost all different kinds, blankets worked fine at first, then tried halo and worked for a while, then tried swaddle me. Swaddle me has the fleece which is fine somewhere cold, but in warmer climate not recommended. Now on the cotton side, there is 2 different kinds, pure cotton and cotton flannel, you really have to look at the labeling very closely. I found that you can throw away the pure cotton after 1 month or so because it stretches so much after a while. The cotton flannel though is sooo much better, doesnt hardly stretch and will keep the shape and size you bought it in. I really got frustrated with the pure cotton. The large size of the cotton flannel you can only find online now, for example on Ebay.posted 07/24/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
My son is 2 months old and he will not nap without me laying with him. He fights sleeping no matter how tired he is. He continually opens one eye to make sure I am still there. I wait till I think he is totally out and then before I can make it to the door he's up and crying. I try to let him cry for 10\15 minutes then to see if he'll go back to sleep but he normally doesn't. He is starting the same routine at night now.posted 03/15/2009 by kittymasc
We swaddled our son who is now 14 mos. up to the age of 8 months. At first I would get stressed that he was "too old" to be swaddled but learned to relax and watch his cues on when he was ready to retire his swaddle and not rely on what we thought was the right time to do it. Initially he was only comfortable leaving his arms free and then eventually he was able to sleep with his feet free of the swaddle as well. Swaddling is comfortable and helps baby sleep better. Keeping at it until the baby is ready to let it go didn't seem to have any negative effect on our son. I suggest you observe when your baby is ready and not force her to "kick the habit". She will eventually out grow it on her own.posted 03/08/2009 by MalouDelCastillo
We waited until our son showed signs of being ready for it. Every now and then we would leave an arm out; wait for about 15 minutes to see if he would sleep. Basically, we weaned by leaving one arm out, then two, and then went to no swaddle when our son was 5-6 months old. But honestly, would have kept him swaddled if he wanted. Doesn't hurt anything.posted 02/03/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
my ds is almost 5 mos old and he quickly weaned off swaddling. eventually unswaddled himself and then still slept thru night. however, just the last 3 nights he has been waking at night and hard to get him back to sleep. so we pat him for about 30 mins to get him back to sleep. so, in desperation, we went back to swaddling tonite. swaddling works great - we just got the miracle blanket. but my main concern is when he learns to roll over, he will not have access to his arms bc he is swaddled and not be able to push his face away from the mattress.seems dangerous. i totally worry, so i will wean him gradually off swaddling. maybe try one arm out 1st for a few nites and then the other arm. not sure why he's waking lately. maybe it's bc he's not swaddled or maybe it's totally something else like teething. but i am so desperate that i went back to swaddling. if he sleeps through the nite,i'll try doing one arm out tomorrow. thx everyone for all the great, helpful posts! good luck everyone!posted 01/23/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
Our Baby is almost 4 months and is totally addicted to the swaddle. I can't see the day that he would sleep with out it...Recently he began getting out of it in the middle of the night. This is terrible because he associates that with wake up time, since we unswaddle him as soon as he wakes up arround 6 30 or 7! We use the swaddle me blankets that have velcro...and still he would get out...so against my husbands opinion I decided to double swaddle him!!! that's right. Just a diaper underneath and one cotton swaddle me blanket and another fleece on top! He can't get out of this one and he sleeps like an angel...most of the times. Hope this helps someone out there!!! Good luck.posted 01/14/2009 by claudiaandrick
Try these two things: 1. The arms free swaddler by LovedBaby www.lovedbaby.com & 2. The Ultimate receiving blanket by Swaddle Designs www.swaddledesigns.com or babiesrus & target. These work great for the bigger babies that still love swaddling. I recommend it to parents all of the time at the hospital :) By the way my 10 month old won't sleep through the night, so I've got different problems :(posted 11/26/2008 by choc_munky

Why are older drivers being stigmatised as unsafe when they are actually involved in fewer accidents than other age groups, asks a geriatrician.
Older drivers are more cautious than other road users, but the stigma "refuses to die", Desmond O'Neill, professor and consultant physician in geriatric and stroke medicine at Trinity College, Dublin, has argued.
O'Neill said that evidence points to older drivers not only having an enviable crash record, but they also raise traffic safety among other generations. He said the risk of serious injury to children is halved if they are driven by grandparents rather than parents, the British "Medical Journal Online" reports.
"Yet the belief that older drivers pose a disproportionate risk to other road users refuses to die. A recent report from a UK parliamentary charity "overstates the risk of older drivers and recommends training for them, an unnecessary measure of dubious value," said O'Neill, according to the "Telegraph".
O'Neill cited Danish research which showed that once a thinking and memory test was included in the medical screening examination for older drivers, the rate of pensioners dying in car crashes did not drop. Besides, the number of seniors killed on the roads when walking or cycling actually increased, he said.
He said car safety features should be improved to protect the elderly in the event of a crash.

MISSION VIEJO – Parties, football games and dances epitomize most teenagers high school experiences. But to Casey Bailey, they seemed insignificant.
So when her mother's cancer went into remission her freshman year at Mission Viejo High School, it solidified the 14-year-old's decision to enroll in independent study at Mira Monte High School, giving her precious time with the woman she considered her best friend.
"We knew the diagnosis was grim," Bill Bailey, her father, said.
His wife, Mary Bailey was first diagnosed with ampullary cancer in 1999. At that time, "she just wanted to get the kids through high school and she came pretty darn close," Bill Bailey said.
Mary, 59, died in March – just a couple of months before her daughter will receive her diploma.
A few weeks before she died, the mother and daughter took their final trip together, a monthlong excursion to visit a friend in New Zealand. It was a vacation they had put off for years, taking shorter holidays instead to the family's time share at a ranch in Sequoia National Forest.
"I wouldn't change a thing," Casey Bailey said of the shorter trips.
In the time meant for relaxing, they fixed up the cabins with furnishings her mom uncovered at local thrift stores. Even when she was sick, Mary Bailey was always on the go. An Energizer bunny was displayed at her funeral, her daughter said.
When her mom wasn't keeping her busy and when she wasn't studying, Bailey's free time was spent at Serrano Creek Ranch Equestrian Center in Lake Forest. That's where she boards Skip, a 12-year-old American quarter horse willed to her by her aunt, Nancy Kemp, who died of melanoma two years before her mom lost her battle.
Her aunt's death was devastating, Casey wrote in a scholarship application this year, but she handled it with maturity and grace, Mira Monte teacher Darrell DeLeon said.
She turned in "good, solid work" and "she never broke down," DeLeon said. The teacher said he never realized how sick her mother was.
"I've had other kids who just can't get past the fact that they're going to lose their mother," he said. "She took time out of her life – she put it on hold – to make as many memories as she could."
Bailey said her mom left her the wedding ring she had worn, and life lessons: "Just do what you can, and do not have any regrets."

I got a friend who was bitten by a were-jaguar. He wasn't a very good were-jaguar, though. Kinda like a worse version of those pathetic fantasy dudes that say that they are Werewolves, but god forbid you call them furry or something. Mr. Were-Jaguar then went on to petition out college because we were discriminating against his 'lycanthropy'. Which is retarded because A) He's fucking psycotic, and B) Lycanthrope only covers wolf-like behavior/forms. He would be considered Theriomorphic. You would think the crazy man would bother to get his idiocy right.
He then went on to later hit on my little sister. What a douchebag.
By the way, nice inkwork.

WOODSTOCK, VT. — The Wall Street Journal, no left wing publication, reports that Republicans may soon lose the votes of some economic conservatives. In part, it's because of the unending war in Iraq and social policies they don't like, but they might swallow hard and continue to vote Republican anyway if GOP fiscal policies did not mimic the Democrats when it comes to the deficit and spending.
Maybe what the GOP needs is a fall foliage trip to Vermont where there is an oasis in a desert of fossilized '60s liberalism. You might not think so at first glance because here, someone seems to have pushed the "pause" button on the Age of Aquarius.
A trip to local bookstores is like visiting Democratic National Committee headquarters. No, that's not quite accurate. It's more like visiting MoveOn.org headquarters. Buttons that say "Impeach Cheney First" compete with bumper stickers with messages like "Freedom of Religion Means Freedom FROM Religion" and "Never Have Sex with a Pro-Lifer."
The most conservative book I could find was one by Jimmy Carter. There are "EmbarrassMints" with a picture of President Bush on the lid of the confection tin. I bought an Elvis Impersonation Kit just for fun. You get the idea.
President Bush has avoided Vermont during his presidency, but he might want to consider leading a pilgrimage of Republican candidates back to a little hamlet just down the road, which produced a Republican president with ideas his party desperately needs.
That hamlet is Plymouth Notch and that president was Calvin Coolidge. Today's Republicans seem to have an identity crisis. Their focus groups and pollsters have been unable to tell them what they believe. Sen. John McCain is an Episcopalian who wants to become a Baptist, but won't "convert" until after the election, lest it seem like opportunism. Rudy Giuliani is pro-choice, but promises to name judges who interpret the Constitution as written and doesn't care if the Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade. Fred Thompson believes the opposite of what he said he believed a very short time ago. Ditto Mitt Romney. Those GOP candidates who have been consistent in their convictions — like former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, Sen. Sam Brownback and even Rep. Ron Paul — are back in the pack. Does that say more about us than it does them?
The president ought to visit Vermont and Coolidge's birth and burial place. It looks pretty much the way it did when Coolidge lived there and visited as president. The state and private contributors (including me as I serve in an unpaid advisory capacity) have kept it that way.

Official Sheamus vs. Alberto Del Rio NOC Discussion
Originally Posted by
World Heavyweight Champion Sheamus and No. 1 contender Alberto Del Rio are certainly not strangers in battle. Over the course of the past few months, The Great White and The Mexican Aristocrat have continually crossed paths, with almost every instance inevitably ending in absolute bedlam.
Now, coming off Sheamus' controversial victory over Del Rio at SummerSlam and The Mexican Aristocrat's triumph over Randy Orton on the Aug. 24 episode of SmackDown to once again lay claim to No. 1 contender status, the two Superstars are primed and ready once again to duel it out for championship gold at Night of Champions.
Sheamus — who has held the World Heavyweight Title since his historic 18-second WrestleMania victory over Daniel Bryan — has proven to be one of the most dominant titleholders in a long time, racking up win after win on big stages with the title gold on the line.
At SummerSlam, though, Sheamus may very well have had the luck of the Irish on his side, thanks to an errant shoe toss by Ricardo Rodriguez. When Del Rio's personal ring announcer took off his dress shoe and heaved it into the ring — presumably so his employer would be able to wield it as a weapon against The Great White — Sheamus intercepted the foreign object, and smacked his opponent with it.
The Celtic Warrior then planted Del Rio with the Irish Curse Backbreaker, a move that could well have signaled the end for The Mexican Aristocrat. But when the always-cunning Del Rio put his leg on the rope during the three-count, the clever Great White was able to knock it off the rope before referee Mike Chioda could see it. The oversight by Chioda led to Sheamus' title retention and, soon after, a formal protest by Del Rio.
Addressing the situation on SmackDown the following week, General Manager Booker T concluded that Del Rio and Randy Orton would face each other in a monumental blue brand main event with the opportunity to become the No. 1 contender on the line. With Sheamus looking on at ringside, The Mexican Aristocrat defeated WWE's Apex Predator, locking Orton in the excruciating Cross Armbreaker and once again proving his mettle inside the squared circle.
While it's undeniable that he's had his opportunities in the past and come up short, never has Alberto Del Rio looked as focused as he does now. His exceedingly impressive victory over The Viper sent a message to the WWE Universe and to Sheamus that this Del Rio is more dangerous than ever before.
Will Night of Champions be the proving ground for The Mexican Aristocrat to finally lay claim to his destiny? Or can The Great White continue on what has become one of the most dominant reigns in the history of the World Heavyweight Title? Find out Sunday, Sept. 16 at 8 ET/5 PT, only on pay-per-view!
Damn, WWE has a serious interest in continuing Fella/Destiny. I can't say I share the same interest. The matches they have had are not "technically" bad but they could have been better if they engaged the crowd more in their performances together. The SummerSlam match was decent minus the finish. As long as they keep building heat in the feud and bring more spark to this match that wasn't apparent in their previous matches, this should be a solid World Heavyweight Championship bout and hopefully the end of the feud.

One way to take actionApril 22,2014
One way to take action
Excellent article by Robin Chesnut-Tangerman on the urgency of climate change. We dont have enough time to fight it one person at a time. Moreover, the efforts of each individual person are tiny compared with the magnitude of the problem. What we need is a policy solution from Washington. He makes a fine point when he says that it may seem like Washington politics are rigged, but nonetheless there are plenty of variables that can help us win the battle for climate change legislation. The biggest, most important variable is us, we, the people.
This is the principle behind Citizens Climate Lobby, an organization of volunteers lobbying Congress for a carbon fee to be paid by fossil fuel producers and to be rebated to the public. CCL aims to have chapters in every congressional district in the U.S. so that every representative will hear from his/her constituents how much we want climate change legislation.
Readers should please join our chapter in Burlington. Readers should also encourage friends and relatives in red states to join CCL chapters in their states because legislation will only be passed if it has bipartisan support.

There are those who claim that it's just as comfortable for them to camp in a tent at an RV park than camp in an RV. Anyone who says this has obviously never camped in an RV!
Let's take a minute and consider some of the differences between outdoor "tent camping" and camping in a motorhome. It really takes a special breed to be able to camp in a tent and be comfortable at the same time! In this day and age, the modern rental RVs (like you'll find at Cruise America) are just like small…Continue

The Pacific Northwest contains some of the most scenic landscapes in all of North America. Anyone who loves rushing rivers, deep canyons and gorgeous forests, won't be disappointed in a trip to the area. While there are many different ways to see this lovely area, you'll find that traveling by RV is one of the best options available. The first thing on the to-do list is to rent an RV. Once that's complete you must choose your destination. Whether you are looking for a long RV road trip or a…Continue

Great Carrier for Bunnies
posted 7 years ago
I like this carrier for my bunnies. The small size is nice for one small bunny, intermediate and large size are good for larger bunnies or bonded pairs. Durable and easy to clean.
Pros: Great carrier
Cons: none

Great for travel
posted 8 years ago
These are great for when you travel with your pet. If they get sick on the way to your destination it is easy to spray out and clean for the rest of the trip.
Pros: great for traveling
Cons: none

Great carrier!
posted 7 years ago
I really like this carrier and how easy it is to take it apart, unlike many others. Sometimes I have to take it apart to get an animal out at the vet's. Along with being a good carrier, these are also great toys and hidey-spots for rabbits. Oberon needs his carrier, it's like a safety blanket for him. He's nervous without it and really seems to like this one in particular.
Pros: Easily taken apart
Cons: none

- Nuggets' Carter, a high school dropout, overcomes a rough childhood to forge a long NBA career
- Undrafted, undersized Woodyard rises to become a Broncos' team captain
- Rockies' Daley, who shunned the draft to get his degree at Bucknell, is a key cog in the team's bullpen
- Saints' underdog QB Brees battles back
After an unheralded four-season career at St. Cloud State, Avalanche winger Matt Hendricks played with seven minor-league franchises over the next six years.
The one-time draft choice of the Nashville Predators played 54 games with the Florida Everglades of the ECHL, one of the game's lower-echelon leagues, and otherwise seemed stuck in the American Hockey League — where prospects go to see their hopes die.
In a sport in which the best players never play a game in the minor leagues, he was an "organizational" player, a body to fill out minor-league rosters.
Not anymore.
The Avalanche acquired his rights from the Boston Bruins in 2008 in a deal that drew almost no attention, and he joined Colorado's AHL affiliate, the Lake Erie Monsters, for the 2008-09 season.
Then, late last season, he finally made the NHL — briefly. The Avalanche summoned him for a pair of two-game call-ups. "It's opportunity, timing, all the cliches," he said at the time, admitting that he had been pondering giving up his NHL dream to play in Europe.
He finally made the Avalanche roster for opening night this season. This is perseverance: At 28, he was too old to be officially considered an NHL rookie in his first full season. He finally got his first career NHL goal at Chicago on Oct. 10.
This season, although he is on the injured list with an ankle problem, Hendricks has been a much-praised and energetic force as an Avalanche fourth-line winger, with five goals and three assists in 37 games.

Awesomely dark elements to an otherwise cute and frilly scene. The more one looks, the more he'll realize that he *doesn't* want to be here. It doesn't feel finished though, the snail looks like it needs more work, and the elements in the sky (clouds/moon, etc) look half-sketched in. Remarkably macabre mind you have though

McCollum Out to Prove Himself Again
Tuesday, June 12, 2007
By Nick Wagoner
Senior Writer
As Andy McCollum limped off the field early in the season opener against Denver last year, the thought crossed his mind that it might be his last time on an NFL playing field.
I thought of that a little bit when I was walking off the field there, but I was ticked off at the time because they wouldnt let me go back out there, McCollum said. But I figured I had to come back, Im not going to let it finish on this crappy note.
That crappy note was a torn anterior cruciate ligament and medial collateral ligament in his left knee suffered in the seasons opening moments. At 36, an injury like that usually spells the end of a career.
But McCollum couldnt really fathom the thought of having to make his NFL exit after 13 seasons without going on his own terms.
Fast forward to the opening of the teams full squad minicamp opening Tuesday afternoon and there was McCollum lining up in his usual center spot with the first-team offense. Of course, McCollum wasnt the only center taking repetitions with the first team offense.
Brett Romberg, who filled in at the end of the season and did an admirable job in McCollums place, is splitting the time with the ones, at least for now and probably through training camp.
They finished well (with Romberg), certainly the group that finished the season played very well, coach Scott Linehan said. But Andy is back and when we put the pads on and start training camp there will be center competition there.
The fact that McCollum is back and ready to compete is a testament to the toughness of one of the true warriors on the Rams roster. Considering the amount of change since McCollum last lined up on the field, it would have been easy for McCollum to simply walk away after suffering such a devastating injury.
McCollum did his best to stay involved with the team while he was hurt. He helped instruct his original replacement, Richie Incognito, and later Romberg on some of the finer points of playing center in the league.
And it was obviously hard for McCollum to handle not being on the field every day and being forced to watch his teammates go to work without him. Of course, he had close friend and teammate Adam Timmerman to lean on when things got tough.
Still, other than the initial reaction to the injury, McCollum never considered walking away.
For me, it wasnt really that bad, McCollum said. It was just tedious to rehab every day and try to be able to get on the field and when you are separated from the team that kind of thing.
It didnt hurt that McCollum took a different approach to surgery than many of the players that have suffered the same injuries. Instead of immediately having surgery on the knee, he waited about six weeks.
The additional time allowed the knee to heal some, particularly the MCL and bring the swelling down. That helped to expedite the recovery process once McCollum had the surgery.
McCollum then began the long road back to the field through rehabilitation. He spent his time doing the same workout over and over. He eventually grew tired of the workout, but when signs of improvement came, that was all he needed to know he made the right decision to return.
Just as McCollum was close to getting back to a sense of normalcy in his football career, a Rams roster move took him by surprise. The team released Timmerman early in the offseason, a move McCollum didnt see coming.
Its strange, not just on the field but around the locker room and that kind of thing with seeing him every day, McCollum said. It stinks not having him around. Hes good to have around; hes a great guy to have on your team. (But) thats how this business works.
But McCollum had no time to worry about his friend because he was spending his time rehabing and trying to get back in the mix in time for the offseason programs.
McCollum was officially cleared to return to the practice field just before the beginning of organized team activities and has been in full action since that time. After spending the initial part of his return knocking off some rust, he says he has returned to near full strength and will not be limited at all in this weeks minicamp.
Although the old adage says you cant lose your job to injury, McCollum acknowledges the competition between he and Romberg for the starting position. And that doesnt even include the possibility of rookie Dustin Fry getting involved.
While McCollum could easily focus solely on winning the job, he knows that a big part of his job is setting an example and helping the younger players. Thats a job he takes seriously, just like his own.
It has been that way every year, I feel like, McCollum said. You have to go out there, not just me, but you have to go out there and prove yourself every year and make sure you show that you are that guy for that job. Im approaching it just the same as every other year.
McCollum is unsure whether 2007 will be his final season. Some of that decision will depend on how well he performs and where he lands on the depth chart when the season begins, but for now McCollum is just trying to improve and he believes he can be better than ever.
I think if anything I try to improve every year and theres stuff you can learn every year and try to get better at, McCollum said. And I think if anything I am better than I was.

Re: McCollum Out to Prove Himself Again
Indeed R8rh8rmike, consumate professional is right. :bash:
Andy may not bring starter attributes to the 2007 lineup (or may!)... but he certainly gives coaches and many a fan peace of mind as a solid veteran backup who truly cares about the team and about the rookies to mentor.
Best wishes to the old warrior for a healthy, strong year.

Re: McCollum Out to Prove Himself Again
i dont know if Andy McCollum will ever make it to Canton,but ya gotta love the man who has the heart for the team/game that he has,IMHO he should be there ahead of quite a few i could mention,including some that are already in the Hall of Fame!

Re: McCollum Out to Prove Himself Again
Barring injury i dont see Fry getting a look in at C not for a year or two anyway due to the leadership skills required for the position and the fact that Fry is a Rookie will probaby mean he will be more affective at G till he is more seasoned in the NFL to be able to lead the line ,i see him more likely getting some time as back up to `cogs or possibly LG in Goal line situations if as he may prove to be ,more of a short yardage mauler than Setterstrom!

The quartet has recently begun promoting their latest album, 'The End of the World,' which debuted in the Top Ten on the International Folk Charts and contains No Surf Music Magazine's pick for the Best Song of 2012. A little bit bluegrass, a little bit classical, a little bit folk and a whole lot of original, Harpeth Rising is a band to watch.

I made a java web application that uses hibernate, spring and jsf. it is deployed on tomcat 7. I want to distribute it to external users, but I'm afraid that someone can decompile classes and get back to java code.
Excelsior JET fits my needs because it packages Tomcat and the war file of the web application into an exe file that can be distributed to third party.
BUT Excelsior is very expensive for me and I'm looking for a free solution to pack all the staff into one exe file.
EDIT : If I use obfuscation. it's going to modify methods and fields names. the problem is that I'm calling them from my xhtml files. they won't be accessible anymore.

this is my Favourite hair dryer, i don't understand how it could have bad reviews!
admittedly I haven't tried heaps of hairdryers in my time but I know that I doubt I could live without my John frieda dryer.
I love the look of it-silver and purple, looks classy and nice. I use it with the narrow head thing attached as I find that straightens my hair better with it, definitely recommend using that.
I think I got it for around $60 which is a pretty good investment considering I use it often (too often but I have the best hair protecter oil so that's how I justify it :p)
all in all dries well, straightens well, noisy but that doesn't affect what it does to my hair, powerful force/air, settings are convenient as there's a hot temperature and warm one.
I DEFINITELY recommend John Frieda hair dryer!!
Age: 19-24

Cons - Noisy ! loud . Pros - Cause less damage on my hair ! I love blow drying my hair & I usually do it for half & hour & my hair doesn't go dry on me . I have pretty oily hair . The thing I hate about it is the sound ! It hurts my ears !

I was sooooooooo disappointed with this!!! I'm like, almost angry because of how disappointed I am.
My dryer went out one morning, so after work I went to Ulta. I spent literally over 2 hours debating on this one and a Hot Tools one. They have live demos there and my gut told me to go with the John Frida. I was also impressed because it was ceramic, tourmaline and ionic as well with an AC motor. I decided if I spent a little extra, I'd be getting extra.
The next morning, I took it out of it's box (which by the way, is a joke, it kept falling apart when I was trying to put it back together to take back), turned it on and it wasn't that hot as i remembered, but I didn't think too much about it because I've had ion dryers in the past that even though they weren't hot, dried a lot quicker than some others. But as I blew dry my hair, I was really getting irritated as how the air was coming out. The only way I can really describe it is if you went into a public restroom and you put your hands under the dryer things, it's a shot of air at like, full speed. It's like when you go outside and it's windy as heck, it left my hair so tangled, and I don't get bad tangles like some other women do. I also noticed how extremely heavy it was, which normally wouldn't bother me, but since I wasn't having a good experience, I was getting more irritated.
I tried again the next day and I felt the same way. I also tried blowdrying my hair at a slower speed which was just way too slow. I thought about waiting a few days when I really had time to shop around for a new one, but by the time my hair was finally done and after I got out all the snarls, I couldn't take it and took it back that night.
One thing that really bothered me is on the handle it said Con Air. Not dissing on the Con Air, they have some good products, but if I wanted to buy a Con Air, I would have paid $20 and gotten a Con Air.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Sensitive, Olive, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Straight, Fine
Eyes: Green
This hair dryer is pretty nice. I blowout my hair often so I need something that is not going to fry my hair. I have owned this dryer now for about two months. It comes with 3 detachable pieces. The pieces don't easily fall off which is good for me because I am always losing them. I have long hair that I don't like to spend all day drying and it dries pretty quick with this dryer. This dryer is smaller than my last one. It is a bit noisy though, I wish it was more quiet.
I would repurchase again and have replaced my old dryer with this one.
Age: 44-55
Skin: Oily, Fair-Medium, Cool
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
This is one LOUD, heavy dryer. And the air blows with so much force it blows it right out of my round brush. I can see someone with long, very thick hair who just wants to get it dry liking this but it certainly was not for me.

Sandy Jardine, who died last week aged 65, was remembered by the Rangers family before the 3-0 victory over Stranraer
/ Sport
RETIRE No.2 SHIRT says MATTHEW LINDSAY:
IF AC Milan can retire two jerseys then why can't Rangers retire one? The San Siro club don't play with the No.3 or the No.6 shirts out of respect to legendary former players Paolo Maldini and Franco Baresi respectively.
And the Italian giants have won Europe's premier club competition, the European Cup and the Champions League seven times.
For me, Rangers should do exactly the same thing to pay a lasting tribute to Sandy Jardine, who tragically passed away after a battle with cancer aged 65.
The former Scotland full-back is one of their all-time greatest players, a world-class talent, and was a member of the European Cup-Winners' Cup side in 1972.
But he also worked for many years behind the scenes at Ibrox in a variety of different guises and became a figurehead when they went into administration in 2012.
He should not be forgotten for his years of loyal service on and off the park. Retiring his No.2 jersey would guarantee this.
TITLE FITTING TRIBUTE says CHRIS JACK:
IT was a day of mixed emotions at Ibrox as Rangers lifted the League One title and paid tribute to one of their all-time greats, the balance between celebration and remembrance perfectly struck.
From the video montages to the minute's silence and songs and chants from the terraces, Sandy Jardine was never far from the thoughts of the Light Blue legions who have left thousands of scarves and messages at the famous blue gates to say goodbye to a man who epitomised the values of a Ranger.
It was Jardine who got the campaign off and running when he unfurled the Third Division flag in August and Ally McCoist dedicated the title triumph to the Ibrox legend when he made a heart-warming speech.
Jardine was a figure to rally round during Rangers' fight for survival two years ago and, while he may not see The Journey being completed, returning his club to the level they should be at would be the ultimate payback for his sterling efforts.

Plaça d'Espanya, Barcelona
48 Reviews
48 Reviews
Plaça d'Espanya is one of Barcelona's most important squares, where I got off from the aeroport bus from the airport where I got lost the first time on arrival in Barcelona.
At the end of the avenue is where you'll find the musical fountain show every evening after every 30 minutes i think.
Plaza de España (Plaça d'Espanya in Catalan) is one of the most important squares in Barcelona and sits at the foot of Montjuic. It was built for the 1929 International Exhibition. What calls attention are two Venetian towers that are 47 meters tall. These towers were the gateway to the grounds of the International Exhibition. They were inspired by the Campanile of San Marco in Venice. The architect for this project was Ramon Reventos y Farrarons.
There is also a monumental fountain designed by the architect Josep Maria Jujol. It has three large columns and several sculptural groups done by the artist Miquel Blay. The monument is a homage to water, and each sculptural group represents the seas and oceans that wash the coasts of Spain. The Mediterranean and Ebro river is represented with a young man surrounded by youths. The Atlantic Ocean and the Tajo and Guadalquivier Rivers are represented with two old men surrounded by youths. The Cantabric Sea shows a group of youths, which represent the rivers that flow into this sea. The three columns represent Religion, the Arts, and Heroism
The Plaça d'Espanya is among the most important squares of Barcelona. It is located at the foot of Montjuïc, in the Sants-Montjuïc district, and was designed in 1915 by the architect Josep Amargós, for the 1929 World Exhibition.
The large Fountain at the center of the square was designed, in a modernist style influenced by Gaudi, by Josep Maria Jujol. The sculptures adorning the fountain were created by the Spanish sculptor Miguel Blay Fabregas.
The Avinguda de la Reina María Christina is flanked by two towers, Venetian Towers, and leads to the Magic fountain and the Palau National at the Montjuïc. These towers with 47 m high are modeled on the Bell Tower at the Saint Mark's Square in Venice.
At the other end of the square stands the Arenas de Barcelona. Nowadays, this building serves as a shopping center.
The area behind the arena is known as the Parc de l'Escorxador or Park of the abattoir. In the 1980s this park was renamed Parc de Joan Miró after the local artist who left his mark on the square with a 22m high colorful sculpture, known as Dona i Ocell or Woman and Bird.
Placa d'Espanya (meaning Spain's Square) was constructed for the World Exhibition of 1929 to serve as its main entrance. There is a monumental fountain representing Spanish rivers designed by José María Jujol in the centre of the square. The Venetian towers, 47 metres in height, at the square depict the belltowers of the Venetian Cathedral. Through these towers runs the María Cristina Avenue. One can see a nice view of this square from the Montjuic Palace.
Once the city's gallows place was situated here. Now you will find a big roundabout with a big sculpture and a fountain in the middle.
To the north of the square you have an old bullring and the Joan Miró Park with sculptures.
On the south side of Placa Espanya are two towers made of red brick. They are 47 metres tall and look very much like the Campanile in Piazza San Marco in Venice. They were built for the World Exhibition of 1929. If you walk the street past the campaniles you will come to Montjuic.
The best time to see Placa Espanya is at night when the area is lit up. Unfortunately during my visit to Barcelona there was a trade fair in the Placa d'Esapanya exhibition rooms so the area was not lit up as much as usual :( but it was still impressive especially the Palau Nacional which was lit up from behind with spotlights. THe mighty venetian towers are based on St. Mark's in Venice and mark the entrance to the trade exhibition halls and to Montjuic itself.
It's pretty rare to encounter a place or establishment that the Catalans have allowed to retain a distinctly Spanish name - all the more so when it is a huge and prominent square that is visited by almost every tourist who comes to the city (especially if they take the bus from Plaça Catalunya to the airport). Still, I suppose that Plaça Espanya is so well known that it would be more detrimental to the world's view of Catalunya to change the name than to leave it as it is.
Plaça Espanya is more of a transit point than a tourist stop, as it is the metro station closest to Montjuic and the Fira. Nevertheless, the enormous monument in the centre was quite an architectural scandal when it was first revealed to the world, as it was a neo-classical creation, built at a time when Modernisme ruled supreme in the city. The centre piece of the Plaça, together with the 47m tall twin towers at the start of Avinguda Reina Cristina, was built for the 1929 World's Fair, like many of the other installations on Montjuïc.
The fountain in the middle was the site of the public gallows until 1715 and was designed by one of Gaudi's followers. It is flanked by two 47m campiniles modeled on St Marco's Piazza in Venice. It was built as the entrance to the 1929 Int'l Exhibition.
Arriving by metro here it's really easy and,obiusvly what'll take your eyes will be the contrast of architectures.Two Venezia's style towers in the middle of a spanish city!!It's so strange but fascinating in the same time.It's one of the thing that make you understand how many different styles,cultures,influences has been in Barcellona.
Plaza España is a busy roundabout at the foot of Montjuic, right below Palacio Nacional (holding the Museum of Catalan Art - MNAC) and Font Magica (Being the great spectacle of water, sound and light).
The two 47 meter high towers originally served as the entrance to the World Exhibition which was oragnized here in 1929. Now, the International Fairs (Fira Barcelona) are still being organized here. There are exhibition pavilions all along Avenida Reina María Cristina (going from the Plaza to Palacio National) which is lined with smaller fountains and light columns looking really spectacular at night when the lights are on.
Plaza España is easily accessible with subway. This is also where most buses coming from the airport or Barcelona suburbs stop.
The Venetian towers in the Spain's Square are known by this name because they are depicting the belltower of the Venetian Cathedral. They were designed by Ramón Reventós in 1928 as an entrance gate to the International Exhibition of 1929, and while they are now the entrance of the Barcelona Trade Fair. They are 47 metres high and they frame the María Cristina Avenue. All along this avenue, as a corridor in the Fair area, there are a succession of small fountains and columns of light. From the entrance to the Fair enclosure there is a spectacular view of the avenue forming the base of the Montjuic Palace. There are different Fair pavilions, as the Communications and Metalurgy Pavilions, in Spain's square or the Alphonso XIII and Victoria Eugenia Pavilions in Marquis de Foronda Square, where the Magic Fountain is placed.
Las Torres Venecianas en la Plaza de España son conocidas por ese nombre porque representan el campanario de la Catedral de Venecia. Fueron diseñados por Ramón Reventós en 1928 como entrada a la Exposición Internacional de 1929, mientras que ahora forman la entrada de la Feria de Exposiciones de Barcelona. Tienen 47 metros de altura y enmarcan la Avenida de María Cristina. A todo lo largo de ella, como si fuera un pasillo de la Feria, hay una sucesión de pequeñas fuentes y columnas de luz. Desde la entrada al recinto de la Feria hay una espectacular vista de la avenida sirviendo de base al Palacio de Montjuic. Hay diferentes pabellones de la Feria, como los Pabellones de las Comunicaciones y la Metalurgia, en la Plaza de España o los Pabellones de ALfonso XIII y Victoria Eugenia en la plaza del Marqués de Foronda, donde se encuentra la Fuente Mágica.
The Spain's Square was created for the International Exhibition of 1929 working as its main entrance. In the centre of the square stands the monumental fountain designed by José María Jujol, a follower of Gaudí. This fountain represents Spanish rivers and some principles such as plenitude, health and heroism, representing a homage to Spain. There is a cauldron on top of the fountain where a flame lits sometimes by night. In the square there still stands the bullring of Las Arenas, inaugurated in 1900 but closed since the seventies. Currently there are works to build a shopping centre inside its original walls.
La Plaza de España se creó para la Exposición Internacional de 1929 sirviendo como su entrada principal. En el centro de la plaza hay una fuente monumental diseñada por José María Jujol, colaborador de Gaudí. Esta fuente representa ríos españoles y algunos principios como la plenitud, la salud y el heroismo, suponiendo un homenaje a España. Hay un pebetero en lo alto de la fuente donde se enciende una llama en ocasiones por la noche. En la plaza sigue en pie la plaza de toros de Las Arenas, inaugurada en 1900 pero cerrada desde los 70. Actualmente está en obras para poner un centro comercial en ella.
Plaza d espania is one of the most important junction of the city.you are always in the middle of activities for example in the history public executions was organized in this place.
Just in front of the Placa there is also a Bullfighting arena which is reconstructed to be a Shopping mall ( what a way to follow) Now the area is known as a Fair area .
If you plan to see the Magic Fountain, came here a couple of hours before the show starts and enjoy the seeing of Placa de Espanya.
You can came here from turning right when Las Ramblas ends, and walk for about 500 metres, or you can "climb" the Montjuic hills, enjoy the seeing, and then head for Placa de Espanya. You will find yourself on top of those ladders, and you will be able to enjoy the sightseeing just i did when i took those pics

DETROIT (AP) -- A proposal has been delayed to transfer 301 Detroit-owned properties to the Michigan Land Bank in exchange for $1.4 million from the Canadian government as part of plans for a $2 billion international commuter bridge.
A special Detroit City Council session was scheduled Monday morning. The Detroit Free Press reports, however, that Detroit's state-appointed emergency manager Kevyn Orr's office has agreed to delay consideration of such an agreement until September.
Gov. Rick Snyder and Canada have agreed to build the New International Trade Crossing over the Detroit River between Detroit and Windsor, Ontario. The bridge's Detroit footprint would be on the city's southwest side. Officials say they hope to open the bridge in 2020.
The project is opposed by the owner of the existing Ambassador Bridge.

Evo-Lite was very helpful and went out of their way to instruct us on how to install, trim out panel, diagnose how to dim, etc. We would highly recommend Evo-Lite for your panel lighting needs.

LumiSheet is a great product, easy to install, able to customize to any shape required, and most importantly, no worry about changing out any light bulb. The soft warm lighting from the LumiSheet really transforms the natural stone slab to a different level of luxury. "− Allan F., Various Projects - Dallas, TX
