Skip to comments.Stop indoctrinating children
Posted on 04/08/2010 2:07:14 PM PDT by Patriot1259
On Friday, April 16, 2010 thousands of public schools around the country will permit students and teachers to refuse to speak during class during a political event sponsored by the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) called the Day of Silence which is intended to increase society's affirmation of homosexuality and Gender Identity Disorder. A national coalition of pro-family organizations is asking parents to call their children out of school on the Day of Silence if their school permits students and/or teachers to remain silent during class.
(Excerpt) Read more at thecypresstimes.com ...
This would be a good day for my kids to be "sick"
Keeping in mind, this is Homo-Leninism in action;
Political Corruption (PC), Progressivism and Liberalism are Mental Disorders.
OMG! Don't they have a parade or something to plan? Leave the children out of this - let them be children. How is it that the same people who are always yammering about "it's for the children, we need to protect the children", are the same people who try to push this agenda. I wouldn't want the kids exposed to heterosexual activities either. Stop trying to destroy their innocence!
Sickening just sickening. Keep this sh## in the bedrm not in our childrens classroom
This is why I send my girls to a private, conservative Catholic School instead of driving an Escalade. The payments are the same and I dont need a Caddy. Plus, the added bonus of my girls saying "Good Morning, Sister" when they see the pricipal in the hallway.
Now if only more parents would have the same attitude. Oh and kudos to the homeschoolers out there, too.
Why do homosexuals obsess over little kids? Does it give them a cheap thrill to mess with young heads?
THOUSANDS ... thousands ... THOUSANDS of public schools
Actually, I wish every day was a day of silence for homosexual activists.
We have just experienced yet another ....
Close Encounters with the Loony Left
[Now past 100 posts.]
If the teachers are going to refuse to speak during class to push a political agenda, then they can just stay home and take a personal day to engage in their political activism.
I agree. If they just kept their mouths shut, that would improve the chances for normal people to learn reading, writing, algebra, chemistry ...
But but but we were told that Lawrence v. Texas was only about consenting adults in private.
Here it is in public schools being forced into the laps of minors.
Teachers and students will be silent in solidarity. This is not the same as "silence is golden".
"If the teachers are going to refuse to speak during class to push a political agenda, then they can just stay home and take a personal day to engage in their political activism."
Outrageous, isn't it? Teachers get an easy work day. That's all that matters. It's a sick bribe to lazy teachers.
This is not just indoctrination—it's child abuse. If I were a parent of a child who is subjected to this kind of emotional and psychological abuse, I would raise bloody hell.
I can see teaching them not to hurt/harm other kids who are overly nelly etc...
But these kids definately don't need: "Intro to Fisting 101"
along side Reading Writing and 'Rithmatic.
Plus there is no need to teach kids about this sort of stuff until they are are in thier teens, middle to late teens. And only teach them the basics, let them know if they have questions they can ask the councillor or a family member.
No need to force the agenda down everyone else's throats.
Its not just gay sex though. Did you see the illustrated "be slutty" literature Kevin Jennings wants passed out from Kindergarten??
If the kids are young, then keep 'em home. If they're old enough to understand what the agenda is, tell 'em that they can go to school and be as LOUD and boisterous as they feel like being. If any of the teachers take offense, tell the kids to have them call you and you can take great joy in telling them just what they can do with their support for fudgepackers and carpetmunchers. And let them know that if they want to take any action against your children or you, your lawyer will be having a nice delivery of a bunch of typed papers for them real soon. And don't back down.
Noise would be a LOT better than silence. I'd love to hear their explanation to the judge: "Well, your honor, we were being silent and refusing to speak and do our job in support of a political event for gays. And they weren't playing fair. They talked!"
Here is the answer
Wow! Thanks for the link.
They don't breed, they have to recruit.
"Why do homosexuals obsess over little kids? Does it give them a cheap thrill to mess with young heads?"
They need to recruit them and brainwash them. Homos rarely grow into homos on their own. I read somewhere that 705 were molested as children. Don't know if it is true.
70% that is...
If you are asking me about "why" they obsess over kids, it's lust, and it knows no bounds. As long as there is a devil/demons then all kinds of sin will exist, because they have excused perverse behavior instead of confronting it "in the name of Jesus".
The Bible tells what can be done, and how to do it, but noone reads it anymore. Instead they would rather criminalize those who want the truth known, and let the lost continue to be lost. "Misery loves company", and it is now cool to 'justify' one's sins instead of repent of them.
You asked.
If a day is good for this sort of thing, I suggest we make it better: The annual Year Of Silence (tm)
I wonder just how many of those people belong to NAMBLA.
NAMBLA ... North American Land Boy Love Assoiciation. Their goal is to legalize adults sodomizing little boys. They have a website. I linked to it once and grossed some FReepers out.
NAMBLA ... North American MAN Boy Love Assoiciation.
" ... it is now cool to justify ones sins instead of repent of them."
Well said. FRegards ....
Years ago, Walsh, of "Americas Most Wanted" set up a sting at a hotel, and nabbed about 60 of these creeps.
Walsh, of Americas Most Wanted — nabbed 60 NAMBLA members?
Yes. It might even be on you tube.
along with about 20 cops ;-)
The cops blocked all the exits when Walsh walked into the hotel conference room. You should have seen those child molesters scramble for the exit....ANY exit ;-)
"This is why I send my girls to a private, conservative Catholic School instead of driving an Escalade. The payments are the same and I dont need a Caddy. Plus, the added bonus of my girls saying Good Morning, Sister when they see the pricipal in the hallway."
Same here.......right down to the "Good Morning, Sister".......wouldn't trade it for any public school no matter how "great" it is.
One is one too many.
Thank you for the info. No surprise, but important to have that ammo. FRegards ....

Another sick and infamous "Day of Silence" - indoctrination/child abuse/homosexual recruitment - and if I hear "My school doesn't do this/my school is good" - I want evidence! 0kaka's hireling Kevin Jennings is a career homosexual indoctrinator and child molesting promoter par excellence. GLSEN and the "Day of Silence" are his babies.
And if even someone things "Well, I'll just keep my kid home that day" - you're fooling yourself if you think that'll keep your child safe from homo-fascist indoctrination. Materials are there, teachers subtly or not-so subtly promoting the "queer" (they use that word all the time, don't blame me) agenda, other kids telling your kid what's going on, other kids feeling that it's okay to "experiment", and on and on.
Time to put the homosexual agend back in the closet where it belongs.
hang on I'm confused here.
On this day they want no teachers or kids to talk all day.
It doesn't even make sense to me, what are they gong to do , just sit there?
can someone explain this to me please
Amen. Same here.
Sending your kids to public school is either cruel or irresponsible or both for any conservative or Christian.
My kid has long graduated, but his school is having about 7 sporting events that day and a concert choir performance just after lunch. Yaaay!
I don't get it.
if the teachers are not saying anything all day then what is the point of kids going to school then?
Is this an all day event too and do we have a list of schools which are doing this?
This doesn't even make sense to me as if they do this then are they saying no one talks all day in school and that means all kids and teachers just sit around not talking.
It's bizzare if I'm understanding this right
so let me get this right.
they the teachers will go to school. Do not talk all day and are asking the kids to not talk.
Is this right because if so then it doesn't make sense.
Why are the teachers getting paid for not doing their work?
Why send kids in to school if they cannot ask questions?
It's just really strange to do this and I hope we have a list of schools who are involved in this.
Good morning, manc - I hope you feel encouraged and not overwhelmed by the crap. Evil always loses in the end, whether we see it or not. Everything anyone says and does is all - noted - there are universal laws that no one can break without repercussion.
Anyway, the insanely evil people pushing the homosexual agenda, especially in schools, seem to have a blank check at the moment, but it will not last.
In the past I've seen lists of schools who follow this disgusting pushing of sexual perversion, but now that Scripter is not active on FR much any more, I don't know if anyone else is doing research into these details. If I had time, I would. Unfortunately such is not the case... :-(
I know a lot of schools do, because GLSEN is in many, many schools, and that's what's pushing this crap.
If you happen to find anything, freepmail me.
Freepmail coming your way...
I will do and good to see you are fighting the good fight.

CAN Intervention - AWG-ADP Opening Plenary - May 17, 2012

This year's long term finance work programme provides a critical opportunity for focused and constructive engagement on sources of climate finance and developing country financing needs. 2012 should be a pivotal year for climate finance, as Fast Start Finance comes to an end and developed countries start on the path to US$100 billion per year by 2020
Negotiations on long-term finance have faced significant headwinds in recent years, and analytical work has been limited to ad-hoc and one-off initiatives like the UN Advisory Group on Climate Change Financing, and fora with limited and exclusive memberships such as the G20. If rich countries want to show climate finance is not just another broken promise to poor countries, they must use this year's work programme to help make significant progress on agreeing to a roadmap to scale up funding over the next eight years to $100 billion per year by 2020.
To help ensure this ambition is realised, ECO would like to highlight the following objectives for the work programme, for consideration by parties attending today's UNFCCC consultation on its scope
It is vital the work programme contributes to decision(s) at COP18 that make concrete progress towards scaling up finance, including:
- Identifying and advancing promising sources of predictable and assured finance, especially public sources, such as providing guidance to the International Maritime Organisation and International Civil Aviation Organisation on generating financing from measures to address emissions from international shipping and aviation, as well as financial transaction taxes and public finance liberated in developed countries through the elimination of their fossil fuel subsidies
- Providing a roadmap for reaching agreement on a pathway to mobilising $100 billion by 2020, including maximisation of public sources channelled through the Green Climate Fund, an appropriate role for the private sector and a trajectory for developed countries to scale up
- Establishing a shared understanding of developing country financing needs, based on a review of recent literature on mitigation and adaptation financing requirements
- Clear commitments to provide scaled up finance from 2013 onwards, including for the capitalization of the Green Climate Fund
This work is all the more urgent given the link between raising and delivering climate finance and reaching the goal of staying below 1.5/2 degrees C of warming. Scaled up finance to support increased ambition in developing countries is critical to move them towards low carbon development pathways.
In addition to constructive engagement on these areas through the work programme, all parties must be afforded sufficient spin-off group time in Bonn, Bangkok and Doha to participate in defining vital decisions for agreement at COP 18. In this respect it is imperative the Work Programme is seen as a complement to, rather than a substitute for, negotiations involving all parties.

Like the Secretariat, our LCA chair and many other delegates in the Maritim, ECO also has experience with the trials and tribulations of construction projects. But not to worry. Yesterday, AOSIS and the LDCs presented a new blueprint for a sturdy and livable structure that can be a functional home for all of us, with a minimal carbon footprint and protection from the increasingly uncertain elements.
To build a good foundation, AOSIS has designed some strong pillars to replace or reinforce the flimsy developed country pledges. For instance, the EU, which has been mixing only 20% cement with sand for its concrete, can strengthen its climate edifice by rising to 30% concrete or even more. This is required to meet the building codes anyway, so why skimp and risk collapse?
New Zealand should raise its level to at least 20%. And in Australia, government papers, forced by NGOs to be made public, show that the conditions for its 15% target have already been met.
Belarus, Ukraine and Kazakhstan will need to dig deeper foundations in the second commitment period to prevent vast amounts of hot air.
Canada, which has been out of compliance with building codes for some time, has decided to build tar sand castles and has given up on any construction that will last more than a few years.
Moving from the foundation to the ground floor, AOSIS, troubled by the United States, Canada, Russia and Japan ¨C fleeing the building and planning to build their own shanties ¨C warns they must use comparable construction standards, and prepare for the visit of the building inspector. As long as they remain in the Convention, they must demonstrate that their efforts are comparable to those of Kyoto buildings, and will achieve results consistent with the best available science.
Adequate housing for all requires scaled up contributions to the building fund, which is why the LDCs are unhappy with the lack of reliable and predictable finance. Conventionland's wealthier residents, who have already built comfortable homes with high carbon footprints, have thus far refused to give a clear timetable towards meeting the US$100 billion commitment by 2020. They only seem to be offering play money and junk bonds to add up to the $100 billion.
With a strong foundation laid, the LDC architects have proposed that a mighty Durban Tower can be built in a few years on the same institutional structure as the current, modest Bali Tower. The venerable old Kyoto Tower will be dwarfed by the combined ambition of these two new structures, which will have ample space for mitigation, adaptation, finance, technology transfer and capacity building. The new towers will be in full compliance will all codes. Regular visits by monitoring, reporting and verifying teams, checking up on finance and mitigation actions, will be welcome events.
The initial sketches from Durban are about to become detailed blueprints, full of shovel-ready projects that will be built for the occupants well in advance of the construction schedule.
The LDCs, like all of us, have placed their futures in the hands of a new Project Manager who we trust will not be satisfied with the current low level of ambition. All the settlers in Conventionland must spare no effort in ensuring the post-2020 Durban Tower reaches new heights, with clear milestones for each coming year.

ECO is hopeful that countries will approach the Bonn intersessional with a renewed vigour for making real progress towards a fair, ambitious and globally binding deal that reflects the scientific, economic and humanitarian imperatives.
Equity: All parties must make good faith efforts to understand each other's predicaments. The goal? Establish a commonly understood "equity corridor", a channel of principles and approaches that could provide foundations towards more detailed, technical and difficult questions. Equity must explicitly and formally become integral to the ADP agenda.
Mitigation: The work of the Kyoto Protocol track needs to be completed by the end of 2012 with a ratifiable outcome agreed in Doha. The QELROs inscribed in Qatar need to be as strong as possible, with Parties moving to at least the top ends of their pledges. The EU needs to make good on their long-dangled promise of a move to 30%. This move has to be solely through domestic action in order to meet their own target of reducing emissions by 95% by 2050. Another priority for Doha should be that the massive loopholes should be closed, including severely limiting AAU carry over and preventing double counting across the mechanisms and NAMAs.
In LCA, non-KP developed countries need to define their QELROs, again with increased ambition and closed loopholes. Developing countries that have not come forward with NAMAs or pledges need to. ECO looks to countries like Argentina, Brazil, Indonesia, Nigeria, Iran, Venezuela, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, Thailand and particularly our COP host Qatar. Their combined efforts have significant potential to close a part of the gigatonne gap. All countries need to use the upcoming workshops to give absolute clarity on the assumptions behind their pledges.
Review: Bonn needs to continue from the Durban decision by preparing decisions for Qatar on the first periodic review's scope and other modalities, such as the body to responsible. It is crucial to reach agreement on these remaining items in order to guarantee a timely start in 2013 and for the review to advise the COP's decision in 2014 and its action in 2015. The opportunity to reinforce science-based knowledge into the highly political UNFCCC negotiations should not be missed.
International Transport: Discussions to address fast-rising emissions from international shipping and aviation are under way in the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), but have been deadlocked on certain issues. Parties can speed progress there through guidance in the UNFCCC on how to address CBDRRC, and in particular inviting them to direct revenue raised to the Green Climate Fund, in accordance with the principals of the Climate Convention.
Finance: Fast Start Finance comes to an end in 2012. Unfortunately, it looks like rich countries are planning for Fast Finish Finance instead. For example, the EU's finance ministers meeting this Tuesday may only agree to "continue" climate finance post-2012. ECO knows that this could mean a drop in funding levels compared to the 3 years since Copenhagen. Parties must use this year's Work Programme on Long-term Finance to agree on a pathway and promising sources of public finance. At Doha, parties need to capitalise the Green Climate Fund, set the Board in place and finalise the GCF host.
Flex Mex: In order to prevent repeating past mistakes, ECO would like to see strong environmental and social safeguards for the new market-based systems under LCA. In SBI, Parties have another chance to adopt a meaningful CDM appeals procedure that would empower all local and global stakeholders, including project-affected peoples and communities.
Adaptation: On National Adaptation Plans, Parties have to move forward by scaling up financial support immediately to allow LDCs and others to carry out well-designed, participatory planning. These processes should also inform the ADP negotiations towards 2015. On loss and damage, ECO reminds Parties that in Qatar they need to advance items like the consideration of approaches, including an international loss and damage mechanism and climate risk insurance facility.
MRV: There are two outstanding issues on MRV that the LCA must address. First, there is the need to agree on common accounting rules – without these there can be no robust IAR/ICA processes nor rigorous carbon markets. Second, ECO is disappointed that all references to NGO participation in the IAR and ICA processes were deleted and expects that there will be opportunities to input into these process as they occur.
Legal: ECO would assume that parties have now agreed that what they are negotiating will be legally binding. It is time to move forward, building off the agreements from Durban, with substantive discussions. An immediate priority should be that a work plan is developed under the ADP with clear milestones for each year leading up to 2015. The work plan should also agree that at some stage there will be a legal group to sort out the outstanding legal issues.
Capacity Building: There is a chasm between ambition established by the Marrakech Framework and reality today. Over the last 11 years, a small set of developing countries and blocs (BASIC, South Korea, Singapore, Mexico, Israel, etc.) have built their capacity on their own, not as a result of outside support. That still leaves around 140 developing countries lacking the capacity to tackle climate change, even in the near future. In Bonn, the Durban Forum on Capacity Building must scale up capacity development and delivery. LCA should maintain its dedicated sub-item for capacity building.
Technology: The Technology group needs to focus on two key issues this time. First, ECO asks for more information to be made public regarding the Climate Technology Centre and Network, before the report is presented to the SBI. Second, an effective ADP workplan must address the unfinished LCA technology issues in order to send the right political messages for an effective Technology mechanism.
Agriculture: ECO expects the agriculture discussion will focus on the goal of maintaining and sustainably increasing food security, particularly in developing countries, whilst putting strong focus on the agricultural sector's adaptation needs. These issues are urgent, as most of the rural poor in developing countries depend on agriculture for their livelihoods. Negotiations must assist small-scale food producers and other vulnerable groups in becoming more climate change-resilient.

CAN's submission for how to proceed with the Long Term Finance (LTF) work programme agreed in Durban.
Submitted by MBurgess on
Preliminary responses for initial consultation
Our initial response to the questionnaire from the interim secretariat is based on the understanding that arrangements will be made by the GCF Board, including developing and operating accreditation processes in accordance with paragraph 16, section 7, "Observers", Chapter C "Rules of Procedure of the Board", of the GCF Governing Instrument.
We believe that the GCF will benefit from civil society participation/input in a number of ways including increasing transparency, effectiveness and credibility. Thus we invite the Board of the GCF, at its first meeting, to view these recommendations as the initial step in an inclusive, in-depth process for broad consultation and engagement on observer issues and we look forward to further opportunities in the near future to share additional and further developed views with the Board on these important issues.
Active observers according to the GCF Governing Instrument
· Active CSO board observers (1 North, 1 South)
· Active private sector board observers (1 North, 1 South)

CAN welcomes the establishment of the Ad Hoc Working group on the Durban Platform for Enhanced Action. Now that Parties have agreed to negotiate a legally binding instrumentto be adopted no later than 2015, it is time to negotiate the substance.
CAN sees two distinct timeframes within the Durban Platform – the work to increase ambition in the short term, as identified in paragraphs 7 and 8 of the Durban Platform, must occur in parallel with negotiations for reaching an ambitious comprehensive global climate change agreement by 2015 at the latest. CAN has detailed the actions necessary to increase ambition before 2020 in an earlier submission. Evading near term responsibility will undermine the chances of a successful 2015 agreement and have a catastrophic impact on the climate.
Parties must learn from the disaster at Copenhagen and ensure that in 2012 they agree on a clear workplan towards 2015 including a timeline for achieving key issues, marked by clear milestones and deadlines. Parties must commit to meeting these milestones and deadlines and honour this commitment. Parties will need to conclude a number of agenda items in 2012, 2013 and 2014. Parties must build into the workplan a balanced package of decisions to be agreed annually.
Equity, including common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities (CBDRRC), needs to be at the very heart of the Durban Platform for Enhanced Action for it to be able to deliver adequately for the climate.
The internationally legally binding protocol now under negotiation must include common and accurate accounting, MRV, strong compliance and enforcement, all respecting the principles of equity, including CBDRRC. It must have fair targets and actions that are consistent with a 1.5ºC global carbon budget. It should build on, develop and improve the rules already agreed under the Kyoto Protocol and the Convention.
After the disaster of Copenhagen, leaders do not have another 'trick up their sleeve'. Countries must deliver this comprehensive deal by 2015 at the latest, putting in place the first steps in the pre 2020 ambition workplan, ensuring that warming stays below 1.5oC, hence preventing catastrophic climate change. There is no atmospheric nor political space for a second failure.

The current negotiating text for Rio+20 does not fully and explicitly recognise the urgent need to act on climate change as part of a global action plan for delivering sustainable development.
This paper outlines the elements CAN believes essential to be dealt with by leaders at the Rio+20 Summit. In summary Rio plus 20 must:
1. Increase political will and ambition
a Ensure strong legally binding commitments and real urgent action to rapidly transition to a low-carbon and climate resilient future that includes development of renewable energy, energy efficiency and distributed clean energy (excluding coal-based power plants, nuclear power plants and mega-hydropower plants);
b Acknowledge the lack of delivery on previous commitments agreed at Rio, including the UNFCCC commitments for all countries to reduce emissions to allow ecosystems to adapt and to ensure that food production is not threatened, and that developed countries would provide sufficient finance and other support to enable developing countries to undertake mitigation and adaptation. Acknowledgement of the now urgent need to address the current environment, development and climate change crisis by committing to ambitious levels of binding action, in line with science and equity and with clearly measurable outcomes and milestones. Rio+20 can provide political impetus to the relevant fora - the UNFCCC and others - on the appropriate level of ambition of these commitments;
c Recognise that delivering sustainable development requires tackling both the roots of the environment crisis and the poverty crisis simultaneously;
d Fully recognise historic responsibility and equity issues associated with addressing the current global environment and development crises and that solutions to these crisis must be based on principles of equity including common but differentiated responsibility and respective capability;
e A renewed emphasis on the poorest people and those most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, acknowledging that all countries will be impacted by climate change, with developing countries the least able to cope;
2. Facilitate a fair green economy
a Support a rapid global transition to fair green and sustainable economies;
b Endorse the 'Sustainable Energy for All' initiative with a strong call for action and a 2020 milestone;
c Commit to reorient wasteful consumption patterns towards sustainable ones, including by adopting indicators other than GDP that integrate social and environmental costs and benefits, promoting themore efficient use of resources and improving waste reutilization;
e Commit adequate and predictable new and additional long-term finance to support developing countries to reduce their emissions and adapt to the impacts of climate change with a particular focus on addressing the current structural underfunding of adaptation needs;
d Remove fossil fuel subsidies, beginning with production subsidies;
f Support the integration of an increased focus on resilience in the context of climate impacts, market shocks, food price hikes and increasingly frequent and/or intense weather-related disasters; increased action on disaster risk reduction and the inclusion of food security, rights and justice;
3. Agree to true Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
a The Sustainable Development Goals currently being discussed need to i) be universal, ii) be based on equity and fundamental human rights, iii) embed climate change as a cross-cutting issue, and iv) be formulated through open and inclusive processes;
4. Protect forests and REDD
a Agree to stop deforestation and degradation of natural forests, as well as restoring degraded natural forests by 2020 at the latest;
5. Realise sustainable agriculture and food security
a Build the adaptive capacity of smallholders to the long-term impacts of climate change and ensure agricultural policies address food security and take into account environmental limits, carrying capacity, equity and social issues, particularly gender equity.

Trading Idea: Is Yamana Gold close to Support?
Published on Thursday, 11 April 2013 19:40 Written by TradersHuddle Wire
New York, April 11th (TradersHuddle.com) - Shares of Yamana Gold Inc. (NYSE:AUY) ended the trading session close to calculated support at $13.46, a level that will raise the attention of traders looking for an entry point.
Yamana's stock range is defined by its calculated support defined at $13.46 and by the resistance level at $14.98. This range could be used as a reference by traders planning their next move. The area where buyer interest might materialize is defined as calculated support. Stocks trading near support might see upside if it can successfully hold the technical level. However, this area if breached will signal participants that the stock failed to entice buyers to step in to support it.
Traders wanting to establish a position should pay close attention to Yamana's price action, and establish it as close to support as possible, but only after buying materializes. Traders should understand that the resistance point at $14.98 might limit their upside, however, if the stock breaks resistance, it could be a good point to add to the position.
Shares of Yamana Gold Inc. closed at $14.10 in the prior trading session.Yamana Gold Inc. (NYSE:AUY) is a Canadian-based gold producer with gold production, development stage properties, expoloration properties, and land positions in Brazil, Chile, Mexico, and Colombia. Yamana prodcued 1.05 million of gold equivalent ounces (GEO) in 2010. It has 4 development projects in Mexico and Brazil, expected to add 440,000 GEO.

This classic sunblock has everything we want in a daily SPF. The eco-friendly formula is made with 70 percent certified organic ingredients and protects from both UVA rays that lead to premature aging and UVB rays that cause painful burns. The skin-balancing formula features vitamin C-rich strawberry extracts to soothe and tone lackluster skin while age-reversing antioxidants like evening primrose, acai, and linseed oils deflect free radicals. Plus, the refreshing cucumber scent gives us yet another reason to love the lightweight formula.
My skin is SO SUPER SENSITIVE to products like this, it's just not even funny. I'm just over this brand and all it's hype. I"m tired of the samples that don't work and either make me break out, or are just useless. This product (as others have mentioned) has a scent that lingers, which probably added to the irritation I felt, but is also not super sweat resistant. If I'm going to put something on my skin that's going to cause me to break out, I'd like to not also get a sunburn. BOOOOO. Don't bother.1
I am not a fan of most products by Coola. I was not, in particular, a fan of this sunscreen. The scent was kind of pleasant (though a tad bit "chemical" to me) but the sunscreen itself was greasy and left my skin feeling kind of tacky. I also broke out along my jawline after using this -- and I NEVER break out there.

previous fragrance better...
Posted by 4947023609707552878 on Apr 27, 2016
It's a great soap. I used it for a couple of years and like it very much. Works well for me - cleanse well and shea provides smooth skin after washing. I used as facial soap too. However with the latest new packing (which is ok) comes with a new fragrance. I very much prefer the original (or previous) fragrance!
I love it.
Posted by 5442289535225062258 on Mar 31, 2016
I was looking for the organic body soap with not strong fragrance. Then I found it. It is what i looked for! Even I gave my friends for their b-day gifts. They loved it
Good for sensitive skin
Posted by 4612845937338302234 on Mar 14, 2016
I like how it is gentle on my skin and have purchased this product many times.
great for face & body
Posted by lissawesome on Jan 24, 2016
I've been using this for around 2 years and have no complaints so far. This is far more moisturising than the one without shea in it. I usually use cleansers/washes specific to body part(s), I found it gentle and mild enough to use this on my face as well (I've tried NutriBoitic's Skin Cleanser - unfortunately it made my sensitive skin red and blotchy).
Posted by prudencettwong on Sep 30, 2015
Good for various uses. I use it mostly as body wash and hand wash, and sometimes as face wash.
Great soap

Great for body, horrible for face
Posted by itsbatman on Jul 23, 2015
This is hands down the best body wash I have ever used. I use it with EcoTools Recycled Bath & Shower Gloves, and my skin has never felt better. So soft and smooth. You can really feel the shea butter. As a face wash on the other hand. Worst soap I have ever used. It felt great the first two days. Really great. Like.. "this might be it" great. Face was silky smooth. Until i realized what it really did was add a microfilm of what I think is the shea butter on my entire face, which made my pores clog up like never before, and I got these painful red spots all over both my chins (where I usually never get any outbreaks). 10/10 will buy again as a body wash, but will keep it as far away from my face as I possibly can.

I purchased a small bottle of this soap in a local store and I'm slowly falling in love with this. I use this soap for shower and as facial cleanser, the smells is good, quite relaxing and it's very mild and gentle, I think it's good for normal to oily skin.

How do you achieve a successful career as a woman? That's the billion-dollar question. It's hard enough for women in the UK struggling to break the glass ceiling and manage a work life balance. But in developing countries it's even harder, and the consequences of those struggles are far more serious. At a recent ActionAid event, women's rights policy expert, Deepta Chopra, highlighted some of the main challenges facing women in the workplace in Bangladesh.
Around the world money is disappearing offshore, usually out of the reach of tax collectors. The Panama Papers have revealed how companies around the world, including ones operating in poor African countries like Uganda, Sierra Leone and Guinea are using tax havens. It is often women and girls living in poverty who are the hardest hit when key public services like schools and hospitals are starved of tax funding. It's time to make tax fair for the world's poorest people.
The huge leak of confidential documents - the Panama Papers - has offered a window on a global tax system which makes it possible for vast sums of money to be hidden in tax havens. It is the world's poorest people who are paying the price.
Since working with ActionAid Uganda I've met many women who have experienced domestic violence. The worst thing is that these women feel unable to escape. But it doesn't need to be this way. Thanks to child sponsorship, ActionAid is training women to start their own businesses so they can support themselves. I'd like to tell you about two of these women.
TV presenter and ActionAid supporter Charlie Webster spoke about women's rights, a subject very close to her heart, at an ActionAid Tea and Inspiration party recently. Afterwards, we took a moment to find out what inspires her and why she thinks fundraising for women and girls around the world is so important.
Last week, I, my fellow staff and over 500 pupils at Mora Primary School in Cricklewood celebrated our 'International Day'. As usual, the children burst through the front gates as they brought in home-cooked food and couldn't wait to show off their traditional dress from around the world. But for all the fun and excitement, this year I chose to teach them about a rather more serious subject - the refugee crisis.

Discussion in 'Beer Releases' started by DaltonC, Mar 2, 2014.
That's what they say, but I'd not be shocked to see it magically show up next week.
Shocked to have gotten some on my first try. Binny's Evergreen Park and Prestige Liquors in Countryside contributed one each, so I'm rolling.
It'll ease the pain of missing out on Dark Lord tickets.
After hours of searching for the elusive, Parabola I finally found a liquor shop that had it in stock. Then I was shocked to hear that they wouldn't sell me a bottle. That's right, the guy on the phone refused to sell me a bottle until I was able to prove that I was a customer of his.
@McBeery Thanks for the FYI. Jetted there as soon as I saw your post. They had 8 left by the time I got there, and the guy said no limit. I just picked up 2 though =P
WTF! Wow.
I've never found beer at liquor stores around me, I wish though.
I had the same problem. But I drove 35 miles to go pick up my bottle. The guy at the deli/bottle shop sold it to me under the condition that I buy a pint to drink at the shop, and sandwich to eat there, as well as another beer (I opted for a BBA Joseph James Russian Imperial Stout). Set me back some money, but well worth every penny.
I get the feeling like we will see the first spotting of Parabola in the Denver area on Thursday... Crossing my fingers!
It's a small liquor/bottle shop. But I couldn't believe he or anyone would ever turned down business. Even if I was a new customer, why would he or anyone deny a potential NEW customer? That's just bad business.
That's also bad business. Say he sold you the bottle & you saw other brews you wanted to try. You would probably go back, eh? But to ask someone to spend more money is ridiculous. A guy tried to get my girlfriend to spend at least $50 in order for her to get a 6 pack of Hopslam. When she said she didn't want to buy anything else at that time he put the 6 pack back & refused to sell it to her. She said, "you sir, are an asshole & you just lost yourself a lot of business".
I agree with you, in that I certainly wouldn't run my own business that way; however, I will be going back there simply because the bottle shop had a good selection of pretty great beers, the deli had one of the best French dips I've had in a long time, and the bar section had 108 taps. I probably won't go there often, but I will go back sometime in the near future.
And although the guy had some pretty stringent demands, I still think I came out on top by a longshot.
I'm pretty sure I'm pissing off my local Costco employees, as I'm stopping in or calling basically every day to ask if it's been ordered yet. They keep saying "no", but they got some last year, and the guy who stocks the beer/wine thought they'd have it again.
I got burned on §ucaba this year (I bought a bunch at Whole Foods at $15/bottle the day it came out, only to later see it for $11.50/bottle at Costco; of course, there are still bottles at WF), but I'll probably get screwed on Parabola by trying the opposite strategy (I bought one bottle at WF, now my cheap ass is waiting for Costco... inevitably, it'll never come, and by the time I figure it out there'll be none left anywhere). C'est la vie.
See, in those situations the owner or manager or employees should believe in their products to draw people back. But the demand to spend more money on one visit is just absurd. But that's awesome you found a good watering hole with a good selection with good food (that's always a huge plus!). I found a store in my area with a great selection but the service was god awful. So I refuse to ever step foot in the store or promote them in any way. I look at it this way, if you want my business, that means you must want to keep your job. So be appreciative of my business & I'll be back. Treat me like dirt & you'll never see me again. See, I work at a restaurant so I show appreciation to all of my customers. Without them, I don't have a job. I feel as if everyone in the customer service industry should feel the same way. Just my opinion.
As someone who has been everything from a host to a dishwasher to a line cook, I appreciate good service. And although I agree that the product should speak for itself, I can understand someone being a bit hawkish over a couple bottles of Parabola. The guy told me that he had two cases (the cases this year, I hear, though I could be wrong, only contain six bottles), so it was quite the gesture giving me one of the bottles. Again, as someone who has worked in a restaurant, I appreciate the fact that he probably wanted to reserve a bottle for a regular or some beloved customer, and I was just some shmuck coming in to pick up a single bottle.
Most of the time, I'm more on your side. It doesn't take much to piss me off, and I have no qualms about not supporting a place that has blatantly mistreated me.
what an effin clown. What sort of shit is this?
Which one in socal if you don't mind me asking as there are several. I was at one in the fontana area & they simply acknowledged the fact that I was aware they would not have any when asked. They didn't even know when they would be receiving it.
I had also asked for victory at sea & the chick was just waiting on me like, come on you big dummy I'll show you where it's at (when i had already looked) & had thought they had some in stock. Checked inventory & no go.
Long Beach, this guy seemed pretty knowledgeable as he knew it hadn't hit their Bevmo distro center
Don't know if anyone had responded/mentioned this yet, but as of Tuesday night, the Perfect Pour in Columbia had a few bottles for $19.00 with a 1 bottle/person limit. Got a bottle and I'm very happy about it!!
I know, Bullshit eh?
This is not BS nor is the guy a clown. He has a business and he is trying to make sure those who keep him in business get some of the limited releases. People who buy more than the limited stuff. They are who pay his overhead. Not those who only call to ask for limited stuff. You may or may not ever come back, and if he sold you a bottle, he may shutout a good customer who buys hundreds of dollars of beer there. Nothing wrong with taking care of regulars over chasers.
Isn't that what waiting lists are for? I tried to get some Sucaba back in February from my local shop, and they said that all of the bottles they got were reserved for regular customers who had already put their names down. They apparently do the same thing for all of their whales. Makes more sense than demanding proof that a customer is a regular or forcing them to spend more money (why not just raise the price then?).
agree 100%. It seems like there are truck chaisers with this stuff. Kinda kills the fun of craft beer if you ask me.
ISO. I really want to crush one of these 2014's if someone can help me out. Can ship fresh Hop Juju, Ohio stuff, etc.
2011 batch was great.
Raise the price? Then it becomes a bidding war. That is not smart
I'm not actually advocating raising the price, it just seems simpler than forcing someone to buy a lot of extra stuff.
I've never had the luxury and privilege of trying Parabola heretofore. But I'm curious to know how it compares to two other excellent Bourbon Barrel-aged Imperial Stouts that I've had and love: Goose Island Bourbon County Brand Stout and Founders KBS. Are we talking the same ballpark here?
For BCBS, yes. But for KBS, I would say no, since it have chocolate and coffee added and is best fresh. Maybe Bell's Black Note Stout, among others.
Thanks. Curious too to know if anyone has had Dogfish Head World Wide Stout recently. It is not Bourbon Barrel-aged, I know. But it is an incredibly "big beer." 18% ABV. It is an amazing beer too. I would love to taste test it against BCBS. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like I will get that opportunity any time soon. I bought the last four DFH WW Stouts from my beer store. And they won't likely get BCBS in anytime soon either.
I can see this from both sides and can understand why some bottle shops do this. For regulars who spend the cash at the shop, being put on a list & knowing you'll get those whales is not only comforting but makes you feel special. The shop knows he made a 'customer for life'.
I can also understand the frustration of those that pop in to a new shop, wanting to make the same purchase but only to be disappointed by the shop's 'regulars rule'.
It has to be a tough call for the shop owner, if he truly cares. For sure he wants to please his regular customers but would also like to make new ones. I've been on both sides of this and can say, just like with anything in life, it rocks & it sucks depending on what the outcome was.....
Parabola, especially this year, is much more 'milder' than the Dogfish World Wide Stout. WWS had a little less heat than BCBS that I can remember, but more complex flavors. Especially the chocolate & spices.
I see what you're saying but this is where I respectfully disagree.
1, if you want to save a product for a "regular". Don't tell people you have it just to them tell a non "regular" that they can't buy it. That's just bad business.
2, from a business stance you want to draw in new potential customers. By denying future customers to a good product you are cutting yourself off at the knees. (Referring back to my first point) when you tell a potential customer that you have a product & then deny them of purchasing it, it turns people off to the store.
Now okay, there are those people who go from store to store, buying up every bottle they can find & that ruins the scene for everyone. But not everyone does that.
Lastly 3, lets look at it this way. A store gets 1 6 bottle case. They have 10 loyal customers, 5 potential customers & 15 stalkers. Who gets the 6 bottles? Sure, the store can save the case to split between 6 out of the 10 regulars. But then 4 get left out & could get upset & then go elsewhere. It's a double edged sword.
Again, the biggest point I'm trying to make is, you DON'T tell someone, "yes, we have it but you can't buy it". It's better to just say, no I'm sorry but we didn't get it in.
Chicago northern burbs types...

Parabola came and went.
I guess my search is over, unless I get lucky and find it in an unexpected place or trade for it.
Binny's in River grove has some Parabola left. Went in today & I saw a case behind the service counter.
Funny these bottles made it halfway across the US before it makes its rounds in CA where it's brewed
I picked up a case (6 bottles) at the BevMo in Santa Barbara this morning.
Good to know. Last time I was in there (about 3 months ago), the dust on the craft beer bottles looked like powdered sugar.
I can get you Founders All day and maybe some Hopslam.
There is a name for this. Extortion.
So how does this year's batch taste?
Grabbed a bottle on my way home to find out that my girlfriend also got me a bottle. I am willing to trade a bottle for a bottle of, Bourbon county rare. BM me if interested in a trade. I also have a bottle of, Darkness that I'd be willing to trade for the BC rare.
Me too - picked mine up in Goleta. Apparently they just got their shipment today, not sure why it landed in Chicago first.
Some stores got it here 2 weeks ago & all are sold out. That is odd that we got it before you all. Most stores in Chicago only got a 6 pack case & they sell out within hours or even sometimes, minutes.

Zeitgeist Checklist
What Washington is talking about this week.
(Continued from Page 1)
Life Imitates Ali G White House. Brilliantly timed with the release of the new Borat movie, Bush will welcome Kazakhstan's autocratic president, Nursultan Nazarbayev, at the White House and in Kennebunkport. This appears to contradict Bush's initiative to foil foreign corruption, but Americans are unlikely to read about it: New SAT results show the biggest drop in verbal scores in 31 years.

The makeup experts at Sumita have created a versatile eyeliner that exceeds all our tough standards: sensational blending abilities, bold colors, and nonirritating formulas. The soft wax formula goes on smooth to create clean lines or can be smudged to smoky perfection. Plus, the long-lasting liner will hold up all day and night.
I sampled the olive color. It went one very smoothly and was easy to apply. I loved the color; I am fair skinned with blue eyes and so sometimes eyeliners can look harsh on me. This gave my eyes pop without being too smoky. It also lasted nearly all day without the dreaded raccoon eye side-effect. It could easily smudge for a more dramatic look. Give it a try!4
I'm 37 but am told that I still look like I'm in my 20's and think that I'm pretty trendy. I was actually really excited to try the color as I normally stick to black and browns, but found it to cake on way too much and blending in wasn't an option. It seemed to make more of a mess than anything and then it didn't come off easily. I gave it to my 18 year old niece... hopefully she will get some use out of it. I'm really sorry for the bad review... I personally just didn't like it... I can see this for the younger girls though.2
