Two of the biggest films coming out this year (The Dark Knight Rises, The Avengers) having been making headlines for months and continue to do so.
While The Avengers hits theaters this Friday The Dark Knight Rises will debut several months from now on July 20th.
The Avengers was recently released overseas and has already brought in $185.1 million in ticket sales. The film has almost reached its estimated budget, $220 million, without counting any domestic ticket sales. It will be interesting to see where The Avengers will rank on the biggest opening weekends and largest grossing films list.
Let us not forget about DC's blockbuster The Dark Knight Rises. Warner Bros. recently released the third official trailer for the film which includes scenes and dialogue that have not been released until now.
You can view the latest trailer here and for those of you looking to see The Avengers opening night act quickly before your local theater sells out!

Breaking the Cycle of Anxiety
Fear is a natural reaction built into the mind-body system triggered by danger. After the danger is past, so is the fear response. But when fear spreads out into a general condition, it becomes a mysterious thing: anxiety. Anxious people are afraid even though there is nothing "out there" to be afraid of. Others overreact to triggers that ordinarily should be fairly easy to handle, such as being left alone for a day on their own. Still others are nearly paralyzed by highly specific phobias such as fear of heights, open spaces or insects. What is going on and what can we do about it?
Record numbers of people in modern society, predominantly women, suffer from mild to extreme anxiety. Billions of dollars are spent every year on tranquilizers to treat this condition, yet as the doctor writes out a prescription, he knows that the cause of the condition is unknown. Since human beings have lived with the fear response before recorded history, there should be a way to heal anxiety, and perhaps the best way to approach the mild-to-moderate types is not as a disease, but as a challenge. In anxious people, fear is allowed to roam freely; we can truly say that fear rules the mind. Yet it should be that you use your emotions, not that they use you. The challenge is to bring the fear response back under control. Otherwise, anxiety becomes ingrained and over time will spiral downward. The anxious person begins to be afraid of being afraid, because she knows that she has no power against it.
Because anxiety comes and goes, people tend to overreact when it appears, only to forget about it when it isn't present. In order to find an answer to anxiety, you must start by dealing with anxiety when it suddenly rears its head in panic attacks, but also healing its underlying causes. Anxious people also tend to be worriers, so that must be taken into account as well. For now, I will focus on how to deal with anxiety when it appears. The acute attack is the moment when sufferers need the most immediate help. Over the next two months, I will discuss healing the causes of anxiety as well as managing worry.
How the body deals with fear
Fear and the Body
People who suffer from anxiety bypass their bodies because they get trapped in their panicky thoughts. The voice of fear paints scenarios of disaster that seem believable. Panicky thoughts quickly become obsessive, running through one fearful outcome after another. Anxiety makes it all but impossible to make rational decisions; therefore, the voice of fear becomes ever more believable even when the disasters it foresees are not reasonable at all. For example, a phobic feels that he will die if he climbs a ladder, goes out of the house, touches a spider or whatever the phobia happens to be, yet in these cases the voice of fear is talking nonsense when viewed rationally. Rationality is not what matters here. It's what you believe that matters, always.
If you suffer from anxiety, your mind has gotten into the habit of holding on to fear instead of letting the response follow its natural cycle. What you need to do is to get it back into its normal rhythm. Your body wants to respond naturally but is being held back. Left to itself, the fear response isn't mental; it's physical. There are three steps to get the body accustomed to being in charge of fear again.
1. Get out of your mind and back into your body.
These steps must proceed in the order above. You can't use simple relaxation until the fear response has run its course, and the response won't end as long as the mind keeps fueling it with new reasons to be afraid. If you perform each step thoroughly, anxiety will subside and go away.
Step 1: Get Out of the Mind and Back into the Body
Take a few minutes and let yourself settle into the feeling of being in your body before you go on to step 2. For many anxious people even a few seconds feeling the body is too long. The mind jumps back in to take control. Before they know it, they are caught up in anxious thinking. Here are some tips on how to stay with your body instead of jumping back into your thoughts:
Take deep breaths. Draw the air down into the pit of your stomach, then easily and slowly release it again.
Of course, you shouldn't do all of these at the same time. Once you are in your body again and not overwhelmed with anxious thoughts, proceed to the next step.
Step 2: What you feel and what to do about anxiety
Step 2: Clear the Fear Response
If you try to attack it all at once, fear is too overwhelming. So break the body's sensations down and deal with them one at a time. This is a very effective way to regain a sense of control. Here are the characteristics of fear and the methods to alleviate the sensation.
What you feel: Cold. Your body shivers and trembles. The sensation of coldness adds to a sense of weakness, like being naked in winter.
What you do: Lie in bed under a blanket while doing the remaining steps. Make sure the room is warm. Have the lighting be soothing, neither too bright nor completely dark. Darkness accentuates anxiety.
What you feel: Stiff. Fear paralyzes the body. It goes tense and motionless, frozen with anticipation of something dreadful that is about to happen.
What you can do: Lie on your back, slowly stretch and twist. Be like a cat waking up from a nap. Reach up as far as you can, rotate your shoulders, wiggle your toes, and stretch your feet and legs.
What you feel: Breathless. Tense and vigilant, you stop breathing when you are afraid.
What you can do: Use conscious deep breaths, going as low into your abdomen as you can. Draw in air slowly and deeply until you feel your diaphragm start to bulge out. When it can't comfortably go out any farther, exhale with a whoosh. Don't push the air out, but let it escape as if your lungs were a balloon collapsing. Whenever you feel anxious and notice that you aren't breathing, consciously take a breath. The breath regulates the movement of emotions.
What you feel: Unable to make a sound. Fear tightens the throat, and even when you feel like screaming, you can't. At its extreme, this leads to a condition of silent horror.
What you can do: Make sounds that activate the fear to leave. This kind of "toning," as it is often called, takes practice. Sometimes you may want to scream into a pillow; other times a low, guttural sound is needed.
Laughter can help or a silent tone that goes out the top of your head. These sounds help carry away stuck feelings that are harder to get at. But each kind of sound has to come spontaneously. Don't scream and cry in order to exhaust yourself. The sound shouldn't be forced. Begin by humming as your attention scans your body, using a high tone in the head and a lower tone going down to the abdomen. Breathe the fear out with the sound. In time, you will find that bodily sensations can be eased out using many kinds of sounds. However, if you find yourself getting sadder or tenser, then the tone isn't helping. Deep breathing would be better at such moments.
What you feel: Contracted. Fear brings on a sense of seizing up or shrinking, drawing up into a tight protective ball. When that happens, many anxious people tighten up even more, as if growing smaller and smaller will make fear stop noticing them. But contraction has the opposite effect. It prevents the release of deeper residues of fear.
After you know how to do each of these techniques, you can combine them. But as you stretch and relax, always remember to keep breathing. These steps should be taken patiently, allowing at least 10 minutes to deal with your bodily sensations.
Step 3: How to calm your body
Step 3: Calm the Body
Don't rush into activity. Your body will be in recovery mode for an hour or so. Drink some herbal tea, avoid stimulants like tobacco and caffeine. Let the calming process continue. Light reading and television are fine. Don't enter into situations that will bring up your anxiety again.
It is natural, however, for relaxation to bring up more physical sensations like the ones you've just cleared. Anxiety attacks in the middle of the night occur because your body is relaxed and therefore tries to release stuck energies of fear and tension. Adopt an approach of countering anxiety in its early stages with the aim of restoring the whole mind-body system to its natural balance. Don't rush or expect instant miracles.
Recovery is a process. Have patience with your body. The whole trick in gaining control over anxiety is to remember that your body is your best ally. Once you train it to let go of negative energies, it will willingly cooperate.

On Jan. 28, "The Bachelor" 2014 spoilers from ABC came as quite a shock. In fact, the network said that Juan Pablo goes to Hell with Nikki on the next episode airing Monday. But don't worry. This Hell is a destination on earth and found in Vietnam.
In fact, "The Bachelor" Juan Pablo and Nikki discover that not only is Hell in this Southeast Asian hub but this place is also that seems like to be a creepy cave to which they must rappel 100 feet straight down in order to get there.
On their one-on-one date, the Latin soccer star and the blonde beauty Nikki reportedly find themselves face-to-face facing legendary Marble Mountain. Adventure is on tap as the day unfolds, with Nikki petrified at the thought of going to Hell in the way in which the producers concocted for this particular get-together.
However, once in Hell, JP and Nikki calm down and enjoy a romantic candlelit dinner for two. Pundits like Reality Steve allege that this lovely contender gets the all-important rose from Juan Pablo. In fact, Reality Steven says Nikki wins the heart of Juan Pablo in general, and is with him even though the two are not engaged as this reality show love match finishes up in March.
So, with that said and with other "The Bachelor" 2014 spoilers claiming that Juan Pablo goes to Hell with Nikki, this may be true and this may also make others believe that certain versions of Hell can actually turn into heaven. Or, at least a heavenly place. Indeed.

When WWE superstar Rey Mysterio showed up on the AAA Internet pay-per-view "TripleMania" in a video, the WWE is said to have become angry at the situation. The AAA event aired at the same time as "SummerSlam," so the WWE viewed it as one of their stars showing up for a competitor. The video also had a hashtag labeled #freerey included, showing Mysterio's attitude towards the WWE. According to Wrestle Zone on Thursday, Rey Mysterio feels the WWE lied to him when his contract expired.
When Rey Mysterio's WWE contract expired, he planned to leave the company and return to Mexico. He had a meeting with Triple H at the time and told him that he was choosing not to return to the WWE and planned to leave. The word is that Triple H and Rey Mysterio shoot hands and agreed that the two sides would part ways amicably. While it seemed that was good enough, things changed when his contract expired.
Vince McMahon had Mark Carrano, an employee in talent relations, to call Rey Mysterio and tell him that the WWE was not letting him leave. The WWE pointed out a stipulation in the WWE contract for Mysterio that said that, if a wrestler misses too much time due to injuries, the WWE can force the contract into a one year extension automatically. Therefore, the WWE made it clear that the handshake agreement with Triple H was no longer being honored and they extended the contract.
For his part, Rey Mysterio has reportedly not cashed any paychecks the WWE has sent him since his contract expired. He has not appeared on WWE television since January because of a hand injury. There were a lot of WWE rumors Rey Mysterio wanted to be one of the AAA superstars to appear on their new American series that will premiere on the El Rey Network, but that is now no longer possible. The "TripleMania" video for Rey Mysterio was obviously a way to send a message.

Sensitivity and specificity of bronchoalveolar ...
|Sensitivity and specificity of bronchoalveolar lavage and protected catheter brush methods for isolating bacteria from foals with experimentally induced pneumonia caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae
|A. M. Hoffman, L. Viel, H. R. Staempfli, C. A. Muckle, J. A. Yager
|American Journal of Veterinary Research
|Start page
|End page
|One indication for referral of horses to veterinary hospitals is for diagnosis of the microbiologic cause of pneumonia, particularly when the initial treatment fails. Although endoscopic methods have long been available for microbiologic sample collection, accuracy of these methods under these conditions have not been studied in detail. We compared the bacteria isolated from samples obtained by bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) with those obtained by protected catheter brush (PCB) from foals with unilateral pneumonia induced by inoculation with Klebsiella pneumoniae. As part of previously described clinical trials, foals were administered antimicrobial therapy IM (n = 15) or vehicle IM (n = 7), and collection of distal airway secretion samples was conducted during the treatment period. Sensitivity and specificity of the sample collection methods were assessed by comparison of the isolates from BAL or PCB samples with isolates from tissue of the inoculated lung lobe, which was the most severely affected lung region. Sensitivity and specificity of BAL for recovery of K pneumoniae (challenge strain) and Streptococcus zooepidemicus (common secondary pathogen) was 90 and 69%, respectively, compared with 76 and 85%, respectively, for the PCB method. Sensitivity was significantly (P = 0.03) higher for BAL (100%) than for PCB (69%) for recovery of K pneumoniae (P = 0.03) from lungs. However, difference in the sensitivity of these methods for recovery of S zooepidemicus was not significant. In conclusion, BAL was a more reliable method for recovery of bacteria from the lungs in chronically infected foals that received antimicrobial treatment.

The following scenarios show what happens when a wealthy couple does not use estate planning versus what happens if they do. Curtis Chen, a Certified Financial Planner at Chen Financial Group in Belmont, Calif., explains how costly the unplanned scenario becomes for beneficiaries.
No planning
A couple has $5 million of assets and the current estate tax exemption is $2 million. Thanks to the unlimited marital deduction, if the wife dies first, her half of the estate goes to the husband estate-tax free. (Assume both are U.S. citizens.) The husband is worth $5 million now. When he dies the following year, $2 million goes to the next-of-kin estate tax-free because of his exemption; the remaining $3 million is subject to estate tax. Even though each spouse was entitled to a $2 million estate tax exemption, the next generation benefits from only one of them.
Planning with a trust
The couple can double the amount passed estate-tax free with a little advance planning. They should set it up so that when the first spouse dies, $2 million goes to an A-B trust (also called bypass trust or credit shelter trust) for the benefit of the next-of-kin. After the wife passes, $2 million belongs to this trust and the husband now has $3 million. When the husband dies, the next-of-kin gets an additional $2 million estate-tax free. Only $1 million is subject to estate tax.
"People always ask what happens if the husband runs out of the $3 million," Chen says. "He has rights to use the bypass trust for living expenses, basically. So this trust arrangement is for people who are worth more than the estate-tax exemption amount, which is changing."

[I posted this in another forum earlier, just wanted to post it here to get some more feedback] -
Not trying to start arguments or anything, I'm genuinely curious why there is so much hatred for this man. What are the reasons? And are those reasons sound? The Obama-care thing, ok yeah, I can understand why some people really hate that. That's fine.
But calling him Hitler (?), saying he wasn't really born in the U.S.A., saying he's a communist/socialist, that he has an Islamic agenda for the U.S., blaming him for basically EVERTHING that's wrong in the country (especially economically) when it's clearly not all his fault, etc etc... Where do people get this stuff from??
I mean there's people who want to kill him for God sake -
If you don't like him, then fine. Obviously he has not been a very effective leader. But..... c'mon, really??
Why would people think that a President would be allowed to gain power who was not born in the U.S. and who has a communist and Islamic agenda? People who become President are chosen by election, but before that they are put into place by people and groups who have money, Democrat or Republican, it doesn't matter. WHY would they choose someone who wants to turn the United States into a Socialist/Communist Islamic state???? WHY would they risk choosing someone who was not born in the U.S., and therefore is not legally entitled be to President? What would be the advantage to anybody of having a non-USA born president? It just doesn't make any sense to me.
And also, I realize that when Bush Jr. was in power there were people who hated him just as much. But I guess to me the grievances of those people seemed to be much more founded on actual, substantive facts than with these extreme right-wing type people.
Seems to me that so many of us don't even look at FACTS anymore. That we don't even know the difference between what's real and what is just rumour and conjecture. Or at least it's difficult to sort through all the bullshit. Democrat vs. Republican, Liberal vs. Conservative, we need to move beyond that crap.
All it does is divide people into a never-ending squabble.
But anyway, what are the reasons? There must be some Obama haters here?

Medal of Honor: Warfighter (Xbox 360) review

Phylicia Rashad turned 66 on Wednesday, June 19. We remember her as Clair Huxtable on "The Cosby Show" and Debbie Allen's older sister; however, there are a lot of things people might not know about Rashad. She taught us many lessons over the years.
No other TV mom has left such of an effect on viewers as Clair Huxtable, according to Vibe.com. Rashad is an exemplary example of a wife, mother, and friend. The Tony Award-winning actress was born Phylicia Ayers-Allen. She took her last name from her third husband, former NFL wide receiver and sportscaster Ahmad Rahad. They had a daughter, Condola Phyleia Rashad, but their marriage ended in divorced in 2001. Rashad also has a son, William Lancelot Bowles III from her first husband.
Even though Rashad is best known for her role as Clair Huxtable on the long-running NBC sitcom "The Cosby Show" and was dubbed "The Mother" of the African-American community at the 42nd NAACP Image Awards, she was the first African-American actress to win the Tony Award for Best Performance by a Leading Actress in a Play, which she won for her role in the revival of "A Raisin in the Sun" in 2004.
At a time when women on television didn't look like or run a household like her, Mrs. Huxtable was in a class all her own. She taught viewers many things on "The Cosby Show" which she also lived when she wasn't on the screen. Through her life, Rashad believes women are as good as men and sometimes better. She taught us that when all else fails make sure you look good. According to Rashad, we should learn to laugh at ourselves and have best friends and partners who can laugh along with us.
Even though Rashad was married and divorced three times, she still believes in love. She contends that life is better when you praise yourself for your accomplishments instead of dwelling on your failures.
We might never have a life like Phylicia Rashad or Clair Huxtable, but we can take her advice and never lose touch of our inner child. We can be classy in spite of our circumstances.
Happy Birthday, Phylicia Rashad as you turn 66!

Journey fans and FEQ festival goers can check out live footage of the band rocking the huge crowd this past weekend at Quebec City Summer Festival. The multi-platinum selling rockers headlined Festival d'été de Québec on Sun., July 6, performing to 45,000 spectators on the Bell Stage at the historic Plains of Abraham.
Posting an update to their official Twitter page on July 7, the 1:40 minute clip shows backstage footage of the veteran San Francisco, Calif. band preparing for their headline slot at FEQ, aerial shots of the crowd and stage at the festival site, as well as live footage of Journey belting out their 1981 rock anthem "Don't Stop Believin'." The "Any Way You Want It" hitmakers performed a 20-song setlist, which covered the spectrum of the band's massive back catalogue of hits such as "Open Arms" and "Wheel in the Sky" and even included a version of the Canadian national anthem, "O Canada."
Fellow San Francisco pop rockers, The Steve Miller Band, who have been touring North America this summer on co-headline bill with Journey, warmed up the Sunday night Bell Stage crowd with a hit-filled 19-song setlist. 19-year-old blues-rock guitar prodigy Matthew Curry opened the evening with a well received set of vintage sounding originals.
FEQ kicked off its 11-day run this weekend with a diverse set of big name acts that also included: Tegan and Sara, Lady Gaga, A$AP Rocky and Snoop Dog, among many others. The Killers, Deadmau5, Bryan Adams, Soundgarden, Queens of the Stone, Blondie and Billy Joel.Mega-headliners are just a few of the scheduled headliners to perform during the upcoming week

Encyclopedia of Jazz Musicians
Massey, Chris (Christopher James)
Massey, Chris (Christopher James), drums; b. Buffalo, NY, 17 February 1959. He's the son of Raymond P. Massey of Pennsylvania and MaryAnne Elizebeth Kerl of Buffalo.
He showed a musical interest from an early age having studied guitar and piano, and began playing drums at age 12 and subsequently attended St. Josephs Collegiate Institute in Buffalo, NY from 1973-1977 where he performed with the St. Joe's Lab Band under director Russell Owens. He also attended master classes with then Buffalo Philharmonic conductor Michael Tilson-Thomas, which had a profound effect on his musical direction. St. Joseph's yearly performances in the Berklee College of Music High School Band Competition earned Massey an "Award for Outstanding Musical Performance" by the National Assoc. of Jazz Educators in 1977 and he then attended Berklee for the years 1977-1979. While at Berklee College of Music (Boston, Mass.) he studied with drummers Joe Hunt and Lenny Nelson and with saxophonist Billy Pierce. He also attended private lessons with then-Gary Burton drummer Danny Gottlieb. During his time in Boston, MA, he performed with numerous Berklee alumni including composer Michael Gibbs & pianist Jon Gorr, guitarist Kevin Eubanks, trumpeter Scott Getchell, saxophonist Matt Derriau, norwegian saxophonist Erik Balke and with guitarist Michael Leasure's Quintet which included bassist Brain Derek. He also met and performed with saxophonist Brian Gephart with whom he moved to New York City in 1980. Life in NYC was fruitful with gigs and recordings with such artists as French hornist Tom Varner, pianist Tim Hill, guitarist Michael Hogan, bassist Dave LaRue, bassist Kermit Driscoll and with the remarkable guitarist Bill Frisell, with whom Massey and Brian Gephart formed the group AtmoSpheres and recorded an LP and played in the NYC area. Returning back to Buffalo, NY in 1984 proved to be a stroke of luck when Massey met and invited the poet Robert Creeley to perform and record and an artistic relationship was formed which lasts to the present day with numerous CD's and live performances. The 80's were full of travel for Massey with trips to the Caribbean with Carnival Cruise Lines, where he performed for 7 months in the islands with an authentic reggae/ calypso band, and a short time in Bloomington, Indiana where he met and performed with pianist Jim Beard, bassist Robert Hearst, drummer Shawn Pelton, and guitarist David Grissom. Another move to Austin, Texas in 1987 brought Massey into numerous playing situations, most notably forming the group Arson with guitarist Chris Duarte. This band won the Austin Chronicle "Best Jazz Group" award in 1987 and included saxophonists John Mills and Alex Coke and bassist John Jordan. Massey also performed with singer/songwriter Jimmy LaFave, Dwain Dennison's Cargo Cult; which featured singer Randy "Bisquit" Turner, Tina Marsh's Creative Opportunity Orchestra, and pianist Floyd Domino A return to Woodstock, NY was a prescient move in 1996 when Massey formed the group "forever sharp and vivid" with guitarist David Torn and saxophonist David Casy to wonderful critical acclaim. Playboy Magazine called this group the "Sound of a Velvet Fist!" This group went on to include bassist Steve Swallow and poet Robert Creeley, recording a powerful "live" CD and touring on the East Coast and NYC to rave reviews. Massey finally moved to Switzerland in 1998 and began working with such artists as saxophonist Simon Picard, guitarist Christy Doran, pianist Bob Degen, pianist John Wolf Brennan, saxophonist Hans Koch, guitarist/composer/horror fiction author/performance artist Marc Levinthal and many others. At this time (2000) he and saxophonist John Mills joined forces with bassist Steve Swallow to again work with the poet Robert Creeley which brought about another excellent Cd and live touring in the eastern US and Texas.Massey also began endorsing the Traditional Line cymbals by Paiste Cymbals in Nottwil, Switzerland. Massey currently lives in Langenthal, Switzerland with his wife Christina Roesti-Massey (born 1969 in Adelboden, Switzerland) and with his two sons: Jan-Erik Massey (born 1996 in Rhinebeck, NY) and Robin Ray Massey (born 2002 in Oberburg, Switzerland)
Atmospheres (with Bill Frisell) (1980); forever sharp and vivid (1998); Buffalo Return to the Plains with Jimmy LaFave; Have We Told You All You'd Thought To Know? (2000); Courage - The way out is via the door.

RapidLash Eyelash and Eyebrow Enhancing Serum Reviews
Works!Great stuff! I have been using this for over a year. At times, I need to trim a lash here and there because it is too long. My lashes are longer and thicker than they were in my 20s. I get compliments on them. No need to buy the more expensive products. A tube lasts at least 3-4 months and I do upper and lower lashes every night. — 4 years, 7 months agodorafisher1 | 9 reviews

Great resultsWhen I first started using this product, it took a while, but I did see results. My lashes became longer and thicker. The main problem with this product is that it is not a permanent solution. Once you stop using it, your lashes go back to the way they were before. Also, the brush applicator is thin and quite flimsy, so it's hard to control. A few times I got the product in my eye, which wasn't pleasant, but once I got the hang of applying it, I was fine. — 4 years, 8 months agoDesertGirl84 | 20 reviews

it really worksI have been using this for almost a year now and love the length boost it has given my lashes. It's not a miracle potion so you won't see dramatic results, but definitely noticeable results if used consistently. — 4 years, 6 months agomelloddie | 21 reviews

BEST LASH GROTH PRODUCT PERIODI've used this for the last year & have not stopped. I started using it at night like the product says. I believe you need to use it on bare clean skin like the product also says. There have been many not so good reviews on this & I don't know why, maybe the time frame. Many people expect something to fast & your eyelashes (like hair) just don't grow that fast. My product says give it 8 weeks & th...read moreat's how long it took for me to see even a slight difference, then at 9/10 weeks they were very long. I often don't wear mascara when going to do quick trips to the store & such since I don't need it. Multiple people have commented & asked if I have false eyelashes on. Remember you need to apply it to the lash & not your skin, at night, on clean bare skin. Be patient be patient be patient. The last thing is once you get to your desired lash length you need to still use it at least 2-3 times a week unless you want your lashes to go back to "normal." It's not something that'll make your lashes permanently long, there's nothing that will do that hence the continual use. The good thing is that after you get to the maintenance stage the tube will last much much longer since you are only applying it 2-3 times a week. — 5 years, 6 months agojessdoll | 7 reviews

Wand is a little trickyI started using the RapidLash 2 weeks ago, I find that this little applicator wand/brush is a little too thin? I have used Latisse in the past and decided to give this product a try, due to cost (only). I really hope it lives up to it's claims. I do agree that you have to be willing to stick with it and LESS is more. Keeping my fingers CROSSED :)))) — 5 years, 7 months agowatergurl | 5 reviews

DisappointedI had great hopes for this product. I tried it after reading several reviews. It is now almost empty and I do not see the results they claim you will see. Maybe it works better on others. Good luck. — 5 years, 8 months agoHapppyToBe | 7 reviews

Patience!It's been about one and a half months and I've applied the serum every night during that span. On my left eye, my evil eyelash curler (just kidding! I really do love you, Shu Uemura eyelash curler!) ripped out about four or five lashes and left a huge bald spot. It was horrible! That's why I decided to get RapidLash. I've tried other eyelash growth serums, but they were either way too slow or just...read more didn't work at all. The majority of the reviews were positive, so I decided to shell out the thirty bucks. Well after two weeks or so, the bald spot was gone. I'm serious! My other lashes were definitely longer. I can totally tell that they're longer. They almost reach my brow bone when I curl them and put mascara on, and they've never been that long before! As for use, I applied a thin line along my lash line. On the first day I applied a lot on each eye and boy, was that a mistake. My eyes burned and they felt itchy. I thought that more serum equaled better results. Not so. I dip the wand in twice, one swipe for each eye. A thin line is all that is needed. So don't make the same mistake I did. I'm thinking other reviewers who had problems with their eyes did what I did on the first day. I'm only assuming. Remember, less is more! I also applied it a few times on my brows and I've also seen regrowth there. They've gotten so long that I need to trim them. I know, crazy! There is a sad part to my story. My eyelash curler once again ripped out some lashes and I'm waiting for them to grow back again. The moral of this story is that I need a new eyelash curler. And there's nothing wrong with Shu Uemura eyelash curlers. It's just that mine is old and the springs are worn out, hence the ripping of my eyelashes. So in conclusion, I strongly suggest you get this serum. I don't know if my eyelashes are thicker. Maybe a tiny bit? But they are absolutely longer. Instead of spending over $100 a month on Latisse and the pain of getting a prescription for it, get RapidLash. It is worth the money and it costs a lot less than Latisse. You can get three tubes for the same amount of a month-supply of Latisse. Now that's a deal! — 5 years, 8 months agoOhLaLaChrissy | 33 reviews

After Freddie Prinze Jr. trashed-talked Keifer Sutherland at Comic-Con over the weekend, Keifer Sutherland's representative spoke out in sort of a 'kill him with kindness' style. Following the severe bashing asserted by Prinze Jr. who said that he nearly quit acting after having worked with Sutherland due to Sutherland's unprofessionalism, the Sutherland representative said that this was the first that Sutherland had ever heard of Prinze Jr.'s grievances, according to Fox News on Monday. The response from Sutherland's representative was quite contrary to what Prinze Jr. surprisingly said.
In an amicable response to the severe criticism, the representative said that the two worked together five years ago. He said that Sutherland enjoyed working with Prinze Jr. He also said that the actor he represents wishes him the best.
The harsh comments from Prinze Jr. came when he was talking about his working experiences with Sutherland on the program "24." Specifically, Prinze Jr. said that he almost quit acting over Sutherland's unprofessional behavior. He claimed that doing "24" was terrible and he absolutely hated every minute of the experience. Prinze Jr. stated that Kiefer was the most unprofessional dude in the world. He concluded by saying that that's not him talking trash because he said he would actually say this about Sutherland to his face. In, conclusion, Prinze Jr. said that he think everyone that has worked with Sutherland would say the same thing, according to the Wrap.
Prinze Jr. was the Cole Ortiz character in "24." It was during his job as that character alongside Sutherland who portrayed Jack Bauer that he said he just sort of stopped acting after that. Sutherland had nothing but complimentary things to say about Prinze Jr. in 2009, also. Five years ago, he said that "24" had some great actors joining the cast including Myketti Williamson as the head of CTU and Prinze Jr. as his partner in season 8 of the show. Back when they were working together, Sutherland said that it was a great balance between something that was new and what the fans would find familiar. In spite of Prinze Jr. assertions about quitting, he has actually guest starred on a few television programs since he worked on "24."

A presentation of the 2014 proposed budget is expected to be one of the highlights of Tuesday's Arkadelphia City Board of Director's meeting.
According to Arkadelphia City Manager Jimmy Bolt, the formatting of the proposed budget is similar to the 2013 budget.
Other items to be addressed:
• Directors will revisit a measure to provide additional compensation for Arkadelphia city employees. The measure failed due to a lack of support during the city board meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 19.
Due to the absence of two board members during the last meeting, Arkadelphia Mayor Chuck Hollingshead has requested that the item be placed on Tuesday's agenda to be considered by the full board.
• The board will have the third reading of an ordinance to increase the city manager's spending authority from $10,000 to $20,000.
• The second reading of an ordinance amending certain parking regulations will be presented.
Time and place
Tuesday's meeting will be held in the boardroom of Arkadelphia Town Hall and will not be televised.
Due to the Arkadelphia Christmas parade at 5 p.m., the meeting time has been changed to 6:30 p.m.

The Big Bang Theory.
To vote on the worst in Australian television, go to Pick your Bogies, 2014.
Don't call them nerds, unless you want your head bitten off by Chuck Lorre, who created them. They are pure thinkers who have trouble coping with the cynicism of a society that would apply a simplistic label such as nerd.
"I find Sydney quite difficult in the last few years. They've become really really … what's the word … fickle" - Manu Fieldel
"We never wrote them as nerds," Lorre says. "From the very beginning we approached it as great minds who are ill-equipped to deal with the mundane world that everyone takes for granted, with the focus on them as extraordinary individuals. Nerds diminishes them. It's too easy just to make them goofy characters. They're not. Yes, they like comic books and all things Star Trek and Star Wars. But that's their hobby. That's how they escape the real world, because the real world is hurtful to people like this, because it's inexplicable, it's dangerous, it's threatening."
Robyn Butler in The Librarians.
He's talking, of course, about the scientists in The Big Bang Theory, which is Australia's favourite comedy, and which has just been renewed for three years by the US network CBS (at a time when most shows have trouble getting renewed for six months).
The continuing international success of Big Bang is a mystery, considering it's an old-fashioned "multi-camera" sitcom filmed in front of an audience. All the cool comedies these days (Modern Family, for example) are "single camera", eliminating the laugh track on the assumption that sophisticated viewers are suspicious of audience reactions that may have been "sweetened" by technology.
Lorre doesn't do many interviews, particularly since the big noisy fuss of 2011 when he had to sack Charlie Sheen from his other sitcom Two and A Half Men. But he did allow himself to be filmed by the Television Academy Foundation's Archive of American Television. In that three hour discussion, he speculated that the appeal of Big Bang is that the audience feels an instinctual urge to protect and nurture the vulnerable heroes.
Rake, Australia's second-favourite comedy
Robyn Butler, co-creator of last year's hit ABC comedy Upper Middle Bogan (and before that The Librarians and Very Small Business), thought there was a bit more to it when I asked her why Big Bang was Australia's favourite comedy.
"It's an extremely well crafted broad comedy with big characters -- risible and identifiable in equal measure," she said. "The simplicity of the story and jokes ensures a large family audience. It's the Odd Couple. Chuck Lorre has followed the formula he has used in every one of his highly successful comedies. Dharma and Greg: she's a hippie, he's an uptight lawyer. Two and a Half Men: one brother is a rich, womanising cad, the other brother is a nerdy, divorced father. BBT: They're genius and socially outcast boys, she's the not-bright and socially cool girl. Lorre's skill is making these stories part of the zeitgeist each time he reinvents."
Rick Kalowski, the ABC's head of comedy, could not resist using the N-word when I asked him why Big Bang is so popular with Australians: "The organising idea -- nerds trying to make themselves believe they're cooler than they are but strongly suspecting they're just nerds -- is inherently comedic, light and fun. There's an especially strong 'breakout' character in the Jim Parsons' role. And the Kaley Cuoco character's romantic story with Johnny Galecki is loveable and very charming."
Sixth favourite
Kalowski says Big Bang's success proves that there is still some life in the "multi-camera" sitcom format, and confesses he is currently developing two comedies that will be filmed in front of audiences. This is the style that Chuck Lorre describes as "more like a small play than a small movie".
"I'd like to believe Australian audiences would, far from rejecting a local multi-camera sitcom, be particularly tickled by a quality, home-grown one," Kalowski says. "My attitude to comedy development is 'idea first, and let form follow content'. These multi-camera shows are being developed that way because it's what's best for those shows. Without giving too much away, one project is in development with a team of writers led by Marieke Hardy who is the show's creator/ producer. That show is a very contemporary workplace satire. I would hope both shows surface next year on ABC TV in some form. I promise there'll be no 'sweetening' of the laughs on either."
Shaun Micallef, who is is usually Mad As Hell, was a bit blunter about Big Bang: "I've never watched a whole episode of Big Bang but I've always thought the actors were funnier than the scripts. As it should be."

Four balls in the air
It's just as well Manu Fieldel learned to be a juggler as a teenager, because he now has to keep far too many balls in the air. He's a judge on My Kitchen Rules. He's a cookbook author. He runs a restaurant called Le Grand Cirque in Melbourne. And he's just made a documentary on travelling through Western France, which starts on Seven tonight.
He's been a restless soul ever since the age of 13, when he surprised his family of professional chefs by enrolling as a student at a circus school. After three years of "unicycle, clowning, juggling, a bit of acrobat", he decided cooking was his passion after all, and moved to London (where he studied at the Café Royal) and then to Sydney (where he was the chef at Bilson's when it was awarded three hats in The Good Food Guide).
That led to a new career as talent quest judge, but after four years, he became restless about that too.
"I was asking Channel Seven last year if we could do something else than My Kitchen Rules," he told me. "They said 'What would you be interested to do?' I said 'I know a lot of people have done food and travelling, but that's pretty much what I would love to do'. They came back and said 'What about if you go back home and show us your country?' I thought that was a great idea."
Did his time filming in Brittany (and trying to refresh his circus skills, with mixed success) give him an urge to live in France again? "Probably not. I'm pretty much set to stay in Australia, if you don't mind."
Why? "Australia is a little bit more easy going -- friendly, smiling people. From north to south and east to west there are so many different places, it's like a different country in every state. The produce is great, the sunshine, I feel at home."
Interviewing Manu last week, I felt compelled to pick a bone: "Your Sydney restaurant, l'Etoile, was my local, but you closed it. Now I find out you've opened a restaurant in bloody Melbourne?"
His response: "Oh sorry. I think a lot of people would be annoyed, but at the end of the day if something is not working and you've done everything in your power, unfortunately there's only one solution and that's to move. I was attached to the place – it was my first baby – but I just had to put my business cap on.
"I just find Sydney quite difficult in the last few years. They've become really really … what's the word … fickle. There doesn't seem to be loyalty from the customers. As soon as there's a new restaurant opening, they just fly like birds and they never come back to the nest."
So of all his careers, which does he prefer? "I enjoy being a judge, and I try to find something positive in every dish. But if you had a knife on my throat and I had to choose, I'd probably say restaurants. A restaurant is something I will always be involved in, because it's my life. It can be stressful at times, but it's what I've been born for." Just not in Sydney.
My France With Manu is on Seven at 7.30pm Sunday in Sydney and Brisbane, and Thursday in Melbourne.
