NFL Team Report - Indianapolis Colts - INSIDE SLANT
Based on sheer change, the Colts are in the midst of a retooling project on the defensive side of the football.
Thanks to a flurry of offseason free-agent signings, as well as one or two additions through the draft, the Colts could have at least six new starters when the regular season opens.
And the math works because, gone are six former starters -- outside linebacker Dwight Freeney (San Diego), strong safety Tom Zbikowski (Chicago), and cornerback Jerraud Powers (Arizona). Outside linebacker Erik Walden (Green Bay), strong safety LaRon Landry (New York Jets) and cornerback Greg Toler (Arizona) are expected to be their replacements.
With defensive tackle Fili Moala recovering from offseason knee surgery, Ricky Jean Francois (San Francisco) takes over.
Nose tackle Antonio Johnson was not re-signed after last season, which opens the door for either Josh Chapman (who missed his rookie year with the Colts because of knee surgery) or veteran Aubrayo Franklin (San Diego).
Finally, there could be an opening as well at inside linebacker. Jerrell Freeman, who set a franchise record for tackles in a season in 2012, is safely ensconced at one spot.
But with Pat Angerer recovering from offseason foot surgery, Kavell Conner or Kelvin Sheppard (Buffalo) are battling it out for a starting job.
Second-year defensive coordinator Greg Manusky has the unenviable task of trying to put all the pieces together and turning them into a cohesive unit. Not an easy task, but one in which he is more than ready to undertake.
"It's great. Last year it was a process across the board for all of us. But at the end of the season, things started coming around. Looking forward more than ever this year with the players that we've got, coaches that we have, and just ready to roll," Manusky said.
The goal prior to last season was to turn players who had been drafted to play in a 4-3 defensive scheme into a group that could make an impact in Indianapolis' new hybrid 3-4 package.
"When you have the transition from a 4-3 to a 3-4, you're trying to plug in the pieces and figure out what they're trying to do," the veteran assistant coach said.
"With last year, coming into the season, we were trying to figure out the players actually, what can they do and what can't they do. Then all of a sudden this year those pieces are a little bit more in place."
With Freeney gone, returning outside linebacker Robert Mathis will flip sides of the defensive line to become the Colts' primary outside pass rusher. Walden will take over Mathis' former role.
Franklin and Chapman, a 2012 fifth-round draft pick who earned All-America honors at Alabama, are the top two options at nose tackle.
Brandon McKinney missed last year with knee issues and was placed on injured reserve last week, which could open up playing time for rookie defensive lineman Montori Hughes.
Outside linebacker Bjoern Werner, Indianapolis' top selection in this year's draft, is currently listed as the top backup to Mathis as the Colts' rush end.
Werner, however, is getting looks at both outside linebacking spots and could end up playing on both sides of the line.
Defensive end Cory Redding, free safety Antoine Bethea, cornerback Vontae Davis, Freeman and Mathis are the five starters from a year ago who return this season.
According to Manusky, he likes what he's seen of his defense through the first week of training camp practices. But there's still much work to do in order to be ready for Indianapolis' Sept. 8 season and home opener against Oakland.
"It's a process across the board just like it was last year. We got a couple of guys through free agency that have helped us out across the board. It's a process," he explained.
"Offensively, usually in training camp, in the beginning, usually the defense wins a majority of the time. Why? Because they're still installing a lot of stuff offensively. We're just doing the process, grinding the stone and we're going to keep on working at it."
Manusky readily admits that he's not much of a stats man. There is only one number that has much meaning.
"The biggest No. 1 thing is we win games. I tell them I don't care how we win a game. It's just that we win games. Defensively, that's what we're looking for," he said.
"Would we like to have the No. 1 defense? Of course. But, stats doesn't really mean anything to me. We won 11 games last year and that's what we're looking to do and expand on that."
NFL Team Report - Indianapolis Colts - NOTES, QUOTES
--Indianapolis will have at least two new starters on the offensive line this season, with Donald Thomas taking over at left guard and Gosder Cherilus getting the nod at right offensive tackle. Both were veteran free-agent additions, from New England and Detroit, respectively.
Thomas and Cherilus will team with center Samson Satele, right offensive guard Mike McGlynn and left offensive tackle Anthony Castonzo.
A pair of rookies, center Khaled Holmes and offensive guard Hugh Thornton, will also push for playing time once they return from ankle injuries.
"I'm pleased with where they're at. Again, we got a long ways to go. It's early. We're only one week into camp. But I'm very pleased. The guys that we brought in stepped right in from day one. It was basically a seamless transition because of the type of players they are, the type of people they are. They fit right in the locker room," coach Chuck Pagano said.
"They fit inside that O-line meeting room. So that makes the transition pretty easy for everybody else, coaches and players alike. I'm pleased where they're at collectively as a group. It's a great room. They all get along. They're working extremely hard at their craft. I think with the first line and the depth we have right now, I feel really good where we're at with that group. They're going to do nothing but get better."
--Coach Chuck Pagano on his goals heading into this week's preseason opener with Buffalo:
"It's your opportunity to put your resume out on the field. We want to make a statement, much like we did a year ago in our preseason opener. We want to be physical in all areas: offense, defense and special teams. To me, it all starts up front. It starts in the trenches. It all starts with your offensive and defensive line. They've got to have the same mindset as close to the defensive line as possible. In order to run the football, you're going to have to come off the ball and knock those guys off the line of scrimmage and open up holes. That takes some nastiness, that takes some aggression, that takes a certain amount of physicality to do that. I think we got the right guys to have a more physical offensive line."
--Team owner Jim Irsay recently took a look ahead to the 2013 season during a visit to training camp:
"I made a significant investment. We're going to be six or seven million cash over cap. We really targeted guys that we felt could really help us. That's not always the big-name player that makes the big splash. You don't want weak links. Sometimes you can have a play where 10 players do the right thing and one player doesn't and it looks like the play completely was a disaster when you just had one person break down. I think it's a long season. Depth is important, particularly with the offensive line and some other areas. Obviously, adding some components and as I've said, I look for the defense to take a jump, to become formidable and become something that really starts being a cornerstone of what we're about. We want to be a really physical unit and a consistent unit."
--Quarterback Andrew Luck showed last week that he does have a funny side. Luck, who is usually serious when conducting locker room, post-game or post-practice interviews, showed a different side following Thursday's workout.
He threw a good-natured barb at veteran defensive end Cory Redding, who had jokingly chided the signal-caller for running with the football during practice.
"He's old," Luck chuckled. "No wait. Don't print that. He might beat me up."
--During an 11-on-11 period in last Wednesday's practice, second-year nose tackle Josh Chapman opened a lot of eyes with just one play. The 6-0, 340-pound former Alabama standout shoved the double-team blockers assigned to him into two other offensive linemen, effectively taking out four opposing players.
--Inside linebacker Josh McNary reported to training camp a few days later than everybody else, but he had a good reason.
McNary recently completed his military service, where he was a Lieutenant in the United States Army.
A former West Point standout, he had originally signed as a free agent with Indianapolis in late May but had to wait until he was given the green light from military officials before he could actually trade his Army fatigues for a football uniform.
--Safety Antoine Bethea missed several days of practice late last week in order to be with his fiancee, Asani, as she gave birth to their daughter. Bethea returned to practice in time for Sunday morning's walkthrough.
QUOTE TO NOTE: "We just don't want repeat offenders. Whatever mistakes that they've made, there's going to be mistakes made. But what you'd like to do is 'OK, come in, watch the tape, clean up the mistakes and then move forward.' So, especially for young guys, it's difficult because we're adding another installation (of the team's offensive and defensive systems). We'll continue to install this week, every day. Every night when we have our meetings, we're installing things. So we're trying to eliminate the repeat offenders. We want to get something cleaned up so we can move on. If we have to come back and fix the same thing over and over and over again -- whether it be a position play or a unit, a coverage, a run, a pass play, a protection, whatever that is -- we're not going to be able to make the strides that we need to make." -- Colts coach Chuck Pagano on cleaning up mental and physical practice errors, which is one of his primary training-camp goals for the coming week.
NFL Team Report - Indianapolis Colts - STRATEGY AND PERSONNEL
PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Tight end Coby Fleener. Through the first week of training camp practices, Fleener appears to be miles ahead of last year's pace. "Probably having the most productive camp, including his time at Stanford, that I've seen," offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton said. "In the time that I've been around Coby, he's a lot more explosive and confident right now and he's making plays that big-time NFL players tend to make."
BATTLE OF THE WEEK: Running back. Vick Ballard is the presumptive starter and has been practicing like it. Ahmad Bradshaw remains on the Colts' PUP list as he rehabs from foot surgery. Donald Brown has looked good through the first week of training camp practices. Delone Carter is healed from spring shoulder surgery and has been running hard. And then there's rookie Kerwynn Williams, a specialty back who has gotten some work with the first-team offense.
--WR Darrius Heyward-Bey (sprained left knee) was hurt during Sunday afternoon's practice. Initial reports indicate that the injury was not serious but there is no timetable on when he will be able to return to workouts.
--FB Dan Moore (right shoulder) is sidelined indefinitely after suffering a sprained AC joint. No indication as to when he will be able to return to practice.
--CB Greg Toler (concussion) has been held out of practice since the middle of last week. Toler will be able to return to practice after he passes the league's concussion protocols.
--OG Hugh Thornton (ankle) was in a walking boot for nearly a week after he was hurt on the final day of rookie camp two weeks ago. Thornton is now out of the walking boot but continues to rehab his injury.
--C Khaled Holmes (ankle) remains in a large walking boot after he was hurt during the first week of training camp. No word on how long he will be sidelined.
--S Sergio Brown (hamstring) was hurt midway through the first week of training camp. He is hopeful of returning to practice at some point this week.
--ILB Mario Harvey (hamstring) continues to rehab and might be able to return to practice later this week. He was injured during the first week of training camp.
--OLB Daniel Adongo (bicep) missed most of his first week of training camp with the team. Adongo tweaked an old injury that he had incurred while playing rugby.
--OG Joe Reitz (stinger) was hurt during practice late last week. Reitz is expected to miss several days of camp but the injury is not thought to be serious.
--ILB Pat Angerer (foot) remains on the Colts' PUP list. But he might have another injury issue to worry about. Angerer was spotted at various times over the past week with ice bags wrapped around his right knee.
--DT Fili Moala (knee) is still on Indianapolis' PUP list. No word on when he will be activated to the team's training camp roster.
--RB Ahmad Bradshaw (foot) saw a brief bit of work with the first-team offense during Sunday morning's walkthrough. Bradshaw is on the Colts' physically unable to perform list and isn't expected to be activated any time soon. He took a couple of handoffs from quarterback Andrew Luck. "No. Just getting the mental reps," coach Chuck Pagano said about the running back's abbreviated practice appearance.

A woman had to be rescued by emergency services when the car she was driving ended up on the edge of a 30ft cliff in South Wales.
The car stopped just before the drop after the female motorist lost control of the vehicle in Bracelet Bay in Mumbes, near Swansea, on Monday August 18.
A rescue team made up of police, firefighters, ambulance staff and the coast guard worked together to pull her to safety in a dramatic operation.

On November 7, 2012
No GMO labeling required for petfoods (yet)
While Prop #37 failed to pass in California this time around, the concept of such label disclosure is not likely to go away
["Regardless of what the science supports, in the end it is the consumer's prerogative to make purchasing decisions.", "It is good that Prop #37 did not pass, as it was poorly written (perhaps to be intentionally vague).", "That would have virtually wiped out the entire natural petfood segment of the market."] For readers outside of California who do not follow state election issues, there was an initiative on the November 6Â ballot that, if passed, would have had profound effects on petfood labeling nationwide. The "California Right to Know Genetically Engineered Food Act," better known as Prop #37, enjoyed an early lead in the polls with over 70% of the state population supporting the measure. However, a reported $45.6 million negative campaign apparently swayed voters otherwise, so in the end it lost with approximately 47% in favor and 53% opposed (at last count).Basically, the new law would have required labels of most food products containing genetically engineered ingredients (GE, also known as genetically modified organisms, or GMO) to bear a small but conspicuous statement on the back panel reading, "Partially Produced with Genetic Engineering" or "May be Partially Produced with Genetic Engineering" (see http://vig.cdn.sos.ca.gov/2012/general/pdf/text-proposed-laws-v2.pdf#nameddest=prop37).While there were hints in the preamble and text of the proposed law that it was intended primarily for human foods, as written that intent was not made clear. By referring only to "food" without further qualification, the law would have not only required petfoods to comply but also horse, poultry and other livestock feeds. Also, while it ...

Um, $200? Is that a typo?
I was never impressed with Darcy in the first place along with the fact she is a demonstrative loser in a campaign. Why should the Democrats think of nominating her again?
Looks like you'll be a reliable conduit for whatever Sandeep shovels your way.
Ask for a placement fee!
I do love me some Sandeep.
I think Burner's pretty impressive myself. I have a friend who's 64, and voted GOP every year til 2004, and after meeting Burner, was really anxious to hold a fundraiser in her own home. That and her narrow loss said to me that she just needed to get out among the people more.
She's running AGAIN?
Don't Democrats ever learn?
Who is this Darcy Burner, of whom you speak?
Darcy Burner tried, and failed. Next!
She gave it a good shot. But seriously, it wasn't good enough. Sheriff Dave shouldn't have been that hard to beat. He's got name recognition, but that's about it. He clearly isn't the brightest bulb in the box. He's got no respect or seniority in his own party, and has no significant legislative accomplishments of any kind. Democrats were taking over everywhere else in the country. His district is trending less conservative, and it is no longer a safe "R" seat. He should have been beatable, and Burner didn't manage it.
What makes anyone think she'll do any better next time? I'd like to see this district change hands, but I think the Democrats need to find a better candidate to do the job.
Lots of candidates win on their second runs for Congress. Several of the Democratic House victors in 2006 first ran in '04.
A couple of points in Burner's favor: she doesn't have to start with 0% name recognition this time around, and '08 promises to be at least as good a Democratic year as '06.
And, the R's won't have the millions in soft money to dump into defending the 8th, given that they a) have ~21 Senate seats to defend nationwide, and b) have a couple of dozen House races in which they are now trying to unseat D's.

EON, RWE Fall as Germany Keeps Tax in Atomic Phase-Out Plan
EON AG and RWE AG, Germany's largest utilities, fell in Frankfurt after Chancellor Angela Merkel's coalition said it will maintain a tax on nuclear plants while phasing out the power source. Renewable energy stocks gained.
EON lost 1.6 percent to 19.71 euros as of 11:06 a.m. local time while RWE fell 2.3 percent to 40.06 euros, the lowest price in 6 1/2 years. Solarworld AG, a solar panel maker, gained 6.3 percent. Nordex SE, a wind turbine producer, soared 12 percent.
Merkel plans to exit atomic energy by 2022 and won't allow seven reactors idled for safety checks to restart after the disaster at a Japanese nuclear plant in March stoked safety concerns. While investors probably saw that coming, some may have expected the government to scrap the tax on nuclear fuel, said Bernhard Jeggle, a Landesbank Baden-Wuerttemberg analyst.
"The exit was coming, most people were clear about that, but that the tax would stay could be negative for the stocks," said Jeggle. "EON is hit hardest in total, but if you compare market capitalizations, then EON and RWE are about level," while nuclear operator EnBW Energie Baden-Wuerttemberg AG would lose the most in terms of capacity.
The tax on spent fuel rods will remain even as the shutdown proceeds, German Environment Minister Norbert Roettgen told reporters following the late-evening coalition talks in Berlin. The levy, introduced this year, is designed to help pay the clean-up of a nuclear waste storage site.
Legal Options
Merkel said in March she sought to accelerate the shutdown of Germany's atomic power plants following Japan's Fukushima disaster, the worst nuclear crisis since Chernobyl in 1986. The decision reversed a 2010 plan to extend the operation of the facilities by an average of 12 years.
"The planned running times are not what we consider to be necessary in the context of the energy situation," Juergen Frech, a spokesman for Essen, Germany-based RWE, said in an e-mailed response to questions from Bloomberg News. "We will keep all our legal options open."
Vattenfall has noted the decision and will wait until plans for Germany's policy overhaul are submitted to Cabinet on June 6 before publishing a statement, Barbara Meyer-Bukow, a Hamburg-based spokeswoman for the utility, said today by phone.
'Many Questions'
"We were not involved in the negotiations and talks and only know what is being reported today in the media," Ulrich Schroeder, a spokesman for Karlsruhe, Germany-based EnBW, said today in an e-mailed response to questions from Bloomberg News. "What we hear there throws up many questions including energy, technical and economic issues which we can't currently answer."
Officials at EON didn't immediately respond to e-ailed requests for comment.
Nuclear power accounted for 23 percent of German power last year while generation from renewable sources made up 17 percent, according to the Berlin-based BDEW utility group. Merkel has said she wants to speed the transition to renewable energy and that natural-gas-fired plants will help avoid a shortfall.
Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said in July last year that while the tax is independent of the extension, they "are linked in a political context."
"The seven oldest reactors that have been placed under a moratorium and the Kruemmel nuclear power plant won't go back online," Roettgen said. "A second group of six nuclear power plants will go offline at the end of 2021 at the latest and the three most modern power plants will go offline 2022 at the latest."
Roettgen said there won't be a revision clause, meaning there's "clarity about the end" of nuclear power in Germany that can't be turned back.

15 reviews | 1.5 out of 5
Sorry Rubbermaid, I usually love your products but this one was a FLOP!
I purchased this squeegee with scrubber for the windows of my two story home. Before I could even get to the second story, I found that the squeegee is USELESS! The scrubber and telescoping wand are okay, but pretty pointless if the squeegee doesn't get the liquids off the glass. Basically, the squeegee was made too stiff to flex onto glass. It's so firm that the squeegee is nearly plastic-like.
I went back to Wal-Mart just to see if maybe I grabbed a scrubber/squeegee that was faulty or something, but ALL of them were exactly the same. I'm not really one to return things, so this is now used to scrub our outdoor tile patio floor.
I don't usually leave such negative feedback, but I would hate for someone to buy this product with the same expectations that I had (clean windows) and end up wasting the money.
I bought this squeegee strictly to do my outside windows for a 2-story house. The first time out I found that the squeegee part wasn't working. It left long streaks of water along the entire swipe, not just the edges or a spot where there is a flaw in the rubber – it didn't work at all. I looked at the rubber to see what the problem was. When I touched it, it fell off and broke into 2 pieces. For roughly $15, it's hardly worth taking back to the store, but the aggravation from this experience is instigating me to do so. Instead of having clean windows from my Sunday efforts, I have to go out again, purchase the right equipment for the job, and try another day.
This was just what I needed to do the windows on our house.....with the retractable handle that is durable and light! Would recommend highly!! Great product, thanks again!
I guess I should've read the reviews here before I bought, but hey, how far wrong can you go with a squeegee, right? Well, this product was not too well thought out. As mentioned by others, the rubber is so hard that you can't get a clean swipe getting water off the windows. And if you push really hard, the aluminum pole flexes so much you wonder if it will snap. But still, not a proper job of removing water even then. I'll be taking it back - it sure did not perform as expected from a long-time reputable company.
Not bad, can be use on for residential windows.
The handle and sponge on this unit is good, BUT the squeegee is so hard you can not use it to get the windows clean.
The rubber one the squeegee is too hard!! I am returning it as it didn't work.
This is one of the worse products by Rubbermaid. The squeegee parts is rock hard for being rubber. It does not take any of the water off the windows. It needs to be pliable and softer. To be able to extend it was great and it is easy to extend, but that is the only good thing I can say about it. It isn't worth the hassle of returning it. Walmart does not carry any other product like this. I would not recommend this to by worst enemy and certainly not to a friend.
Rubber squeegee is so stiff you could spread concrete with it!
Bought this for home windows. The rubber ? blade is so hard it won't clean the water off. Basically I can only use it for the scrubber side. Very disappointed.
I had great hope that this squeegee would answer my window cleaning problems. in the store I was impressed with the overall construction, but at home I found that the scrubber has no real power, and worst of all the squeegee is far too stiff. My windows look worse now than before.
Found the squeegee blade working against gravity--squeegees (and not well) upward only so fluid runs back down the window. Also the support for the scrubber and squeegee is not strong enough to use in a reliable manner.
Could be bad design, materials and/or construction.
Rubber squeegee deteriorated rapidly, and replacements not available on Rubbermaid site. Has no real utility without itl
I agree with all of the other reviews. The squeegee is too firm and will not wipe the window clean and leaves streaks. Rubbermaid has certainly gone downhill on this product. The window looks worse than before I started.
When sponge and mesh wear out you have to buy the whole thing, pole and all

I am a noob at all this and don't understand anything.
What I am trying to accomplish is to have the newest post be visible on this page: http://www.genadd.com/s-blog.php
In the center only.
Then i would need it to have a link so guests (who never have to sign up) can leave comments. There would also need to be a link to look at all the previous posts. I would prefer to have the comments and previous quotes be pop-up windows (in which case the 'look' of said pages does not need to reflect my site.)
I am just about at wit's end, and have been seriously considering paying someone a small fee to get this task accomplished with ease...so any help is appreciative.

Shabby Chic Decorating Tips
Thinking about giving your home a shabby chic, farm style décor? Great idea! Not only is it an absolutely adorable look to revamp your home with, it is also quite affordable compared to other decors.
The key to properly capturing that country farm style house plan is to picture a light, casual look. By blending together worn furnishings and creating an intimate, lived-in feel, you can bring that classic, cottage-style charm right into your own home.
Shabby chic is all about fabrics, colors, and patterns that work together with existing furniture and knickknacks. You don't necessarily need to buy new furniture to create the shabby chic feel, as many of your current furniture pieces may be suited for distressing to help them blend in. The secret to pulling off the shabby chic style effectively is to use both vintage and new elements to create a warm and inviting environment with all of the appeal and comfort of a relaxing country farmhouse.
Typically, green, yellow, blue and red are the colors most commonly used in country house plans. Especially pastels. By using these colors in a variety of combinations along with whites and off-whites, the color scheme possibilities are endless. Painted walls or patterned wallpapers are often used to augment the shabby chic vibe as well. Incorporating a wallpaper border is another popular and affordable way to further enhance the country appeal around your home and add contrast to the colors.
Any type of solid wood furniture such as pine or oak and similar natural warm woods are ideal. You may also incorporate painted furniture pieces. The idea is to use simple, charming furniture that is less decorative like the type of furniture you'd likely find in a formal home. Antiques (both original and reproductions) make for great shabby chic accents. Some popular ones include jelly cupboards, pie safes, and kitchen queens. Don't be afraid to experiment and mix different pieces of furniture up to come up with your own arrangements!
Look for fabrics that incorporate stripes, florals, and checks. Subtle stripes and checks are the hallmark of the shabby chic style, and they add a distinct, intimate feel to living areas and bedrooms.
Natural wood or ceramic tile flooring is most popular for shabby chic decors, but painted patterns or diamond/checkered designs can also compliment floors nicely. If you do decide to paint your own design, be sure to apply a top coat of varnish afterwards to properly protect it. However, even if your floors show signs of wear over time…even better! You may also want to add throw rugs in certain rooms for additional comfort.
Above all, the most important tip when it comes to undertaking a the task of shabby chic decorating...be creative! Creating harmony out of several different types of furniture and patterns/colors is what it's all about. And don't forget to have fun!

Blossoming Too Early?
American girls are reaching puberty younger than ever. Why?
WebMD Feature
April 3, 2000 (Bellevue, Wash.) -- Like many girls who enter puberty earlier than most, Kathy Pitts was confused and scared when she got her period at 9. "My mother never mentioned the changes that go along with puberty -- maybe she thought I was too young," says Pitts, now 35 and the mother of a 9-year-old son and a 2-year-old daughter in Bellevue, Wash. "It would have really helped if my mom had talked to me about what to expect."
These days, Pitts would have had plenty of company. More young girls are showing signs of puberty as early as 7 or 8 and beginning to menstruate two to three years later. As a result, parents are increasingly faced with the difficult task of talking to young children about topics that had traditionally been reserved for preteens and teens.
While previous studies have found that girls typically began showing signs of puberty at 10 to 11, a new report by the Lawson Wilkins Pediatric Endocrine Society (LWPES), a nationwide network of physicians headquartered in Stanford, Calif., suggests that it is normal for white girls as young as 7 and black girls as young as 6 to start developing breasts. This conclusion was based on a study of 17,000 girls between the ages of 3 and 12 conducted by the Pediatric Research in Office Settings (PROS) network of 1,500 pediatricians nationwide and published in the April 1997 issue of Pediatrics.

Best super light drugstore blonde! Before using this, I dyed my hair with garnier's extra light natural blonde and the results were golden and a bit orange. I decided to use this on my roots because the instructions said you could use 100 and 111 interchangeably. My dark blonde roots turned a whiteish pearly blonde, while the rest of my hair was a light golden blonde. These two boxes of hair color are not the same!! Now I have lighter roots than my ends of my hair, but I would still recommend this product because it is the only box blonde that could lighten my mousy hair with no orange at all

I use this stuff to dye my roots. My natural color is a dark blonde/light brown color and it pulls a lot of red and gold, so I usually have to tone my hair after coloring. This is the only drug store hair dye that I have found that does not leave my roots an icky, brassy yellow color.

Garner White Chocolate was a complete lifesaver! A little background so you know what my hair was before this color: my hair is naturally golden blonde, but I've been coloring it since I was 19. As I've aged (I'm 33), it's gotten real mousey (from what I can see at my roots). I have been every color under the rainbow at some point in my life, but previous to this color, I was using L'Oreal Preference Paris Couture 8GB Golden illuminous Blonde, which was very natural and very close to my natural darker gold blonde color. I wanted to go lighter for spring, so I first purchased, if I can remember, a L'Oreal Preference Ultra Lift dye. It barely did anything at all, so I purchased a Feria ultra lift dye and got my hair to a very pale yellow blonde. After that (with some waiting in between), I used Colorsilk 05 Ash blonde after reading good reviews, hoping that would get rid of the golden tones. Not so much. My ends were ok, but my head was still a golden yellow. I thought it was ok, but kept looking in the mirror at work thinking, Oh dear, even I know this doesn't go with my skin tone!! I couldn't make it work.
I waited a few days, but seeing as I have a photoshoot for the city newspaper in a few days, as a Stylemaker in the fashion section, I really needed a good fix, or wear a big hat! I had purchased Garner White Chocolate in the past and remember it turning my hair very lavender, but at the time I already had white hair. I did a test strip this morning, and it was looking good, so I just went for it and put it all over my head, focusing mainly on the golden parts. I put a bunch of conditioner on my ends so they didn't pick up too much color, as they were already ashy enough for me. I left it on for about 40 minutes, longer than it says to, but I really wanted to make sure it was NOT yellow. Rinsed my hair out, conditioned (conditioner was great), and when I stepped out of the shower, expecting neon roots still, my hair was a perfect buttery pale baby blonde. I really cannot express how happy I am with this color. It not only made my hair way softer than it previously was (especially after two lightenings and another dye in one week - ack!) but the color is very even and fits my skin tone WAY better than that terrible yellow. Very happy.
TL/DR: If you have a yellow-tinged (not orange, but a pale golden) bleached blonde hair, this might be really good for toning it down to an even ashy pale baby blonde. My color didn't turn out as light as it does on the box (which is good anyway, because I did not want it to be intense white blonde!) My ends are a little more silver than the rest of my hair, but it looks way better than having flaming pale yellow at the top of my head! Hair looks great, and is silkier than ever, after all my hair went through this week! Also, my hair doesn't smell like I just dyed it, like it did with the Colorsilk and Feria. Ugh. It just smells fresh!

I've used this color a couple of times. Instead of the light blonde on the box, it turns my hair darker and greyish. I think Garnier puts a little too much ash in their cooler hair colors, because I also used Lightest Cool Blonde from their Olia line and it did the same thing. I bet it works well if your hair is darker or very brassy, but if your hair is already light and very porous like mine, I wouldn't reccomend it unless you want a darker, greyish color. I might actually use it touch up my roots, which are dark blonde/light brown naturally and always turn brassy. Hopefully it'll make my roots a light silvery blonde color, and I'll update this review if it works for that.

I wanted to go from my natural medium brown to dark ash blonde.
When dyeing my hair before it has always turned red even when using ash colors. I must have very strong red undertones in my natural hair, but they never show up until dyed.
If you want to go MEDIUM BROWN ----> DARK BLONDE I thing this will work wonderfully if you have normal hair (not alien-like red undertones). It lightened my hair to a nice dark blonde level.
My hair is a dark blonde with slight brassiness until I step into the sun: COPPER!
I do see the ashy tones here and there. I will try it again in a few weeks with a 10 VOL developer and see if the red goes away. I might add ardell red gold and try Revlon color creme 1002.
I will update!
UPDATE july 12
Used WELLA COLOR CHARM T14 silver lady. Red tones are gone. Yellow tones very prominent. Will try T18 next week. Stay tuned.

Ok you guys. I have used makeupalley for years but signed up today because I used this hairdye last night and I felt like I had to obligation to let the world know! This is the best drugstore hairdye I have ever used to neutralize brassiness. I have been dying my hair since highschool and have been blonde for much of that time. I have used John Freida 9n the last few years but since they changed their formula I just wasn't getting as light as I'd like. It still looked natural and was it pretty and golden (not brassy) but it was a pretty dark blonde and several shades darker than my roots.
So, after much worrying and reading of reviews (like hours) I got white chocolate. I got two boxes in fear that it would be brassy and I'd have to tone with the second box. My roots are soft brown (that mousy brown that little girls who used to be blondey-blonde get as they get older) and I have had major trouble with brassiness with almost every single kind of box hair dye I've ever tried. Except John Freida, it just didn't lighten as much I wanted.
Last night I left on 111 for forty five minutes and just lightly pulled it through the rest of my long already-blonde hair. I got pale cool blonde! I couldn't believe it. No brassines, in fact, it's a little silvery. But, if you know blonde hair dye--having your hair lean silvery instead of orange is a miracle! Yes, my longer strands might be a teeny bit too ashy, but nothing a week or so won't work out all by itself. I just can't believe I didn't have to use a toner. I keep looking in the mirror to make sure I'm not being too optimistic and tricking myself. It really is a pretty soft light blonde. I can't believe it.
So if you're like me and afraid of trying a new drugstore box dye and you have lighter than medium brown hair, this will work! I watched it in the mirror and I could see after 45 minutes that it wasn't going to go lighter.
There are some bad reviews here but I sense that those people might not have had a lot of experience with DIY hairdye, so if you've been at it for awhile, fear not!

This is THE BEST BLONDE DYE AROUND! I totally screwed up my hair with Henna (trying to use "natural"), and have been trying to get it out. My hair was neon orange at a point...lol! This has made my hair look "normal". Like a "normal" blonde!!! YEAH!!!!

My hair is naturally dark blonde and I constantly keep it in some state of dyed/highlighted light blonde. It pulls orange VERY easily so I am constantly fighting that (Shimmer Lights purple conditioner is my savior). This hair color was surprisingly great: good price, fine packaging (nothing special but easy to use), and was probably the best single-process home hair color I've ever used in terms of not turning orange. I followed the directions exactly (10 minutes on mid to ends before applying to roots and waiting another 20 minutes) and only got the slightest brassiness at the roots. The rest of the hair was beautifully cool and beige-blonde. I used my Shimmer Lights conditioner on the roots to tone down that bit of brassiness, and it looks great! My hair felt soft and well-conditioned afterwards. Will absolutely repurchase!

I wanted to write this review in hopes of maybe helping someone else.
I have been getting expensive highlights for years. My hair is mostly blonde (from highlighting) but I have dark roots. My hair is naturally a med. to light brown.
so here is the important part. This dye comes with a 30 vol developer. This means it will only lift or lighten your hair 3 levels. Google a hair level chart and find what level you are. Count three shades down and this is what a 30 volume will do. my level is probably a 4 medium brown. So a 30 volume will only lighten me to a 7 medium blond. btw: I am not a hair professional. I just did some research after my hair turned a yucky color of gold using this hair dye. What I didn't understand was I probably needed a 40 vol and possibly should have checked Sally's beauty first. Box dyes are very misleading!
be careful and good luck!!

I got the random impulse to bleach my red hair back to ash blonde, and only had this hair dye available, as I didn't have my trusty wells t18 toner on hand. I had a lot of underlying peach/ red tones close to my roots, so I had my doubts that they would be covered, as they where quite strong. However I was totally wrong! White chocolate turned them into a lovely dark ash blonde and the rest of my hair a light ash blonde. It's actually a shade close to the box, but it took two bleachings to get it this color. It's hard to find in my local drug stores so I might have to go back to Sally's, but if I ever stumble upon it again I will definitely purchase! You won't be disappointed if you use it. :)
EDIT: This color was a bit too light (almost white) for my tastes so I opted for something darker. However if thats your cup of tea go for it! lol.

The year is 1966, and the Soviet Union stands to deal the United States a humiliating defeat. A long-forgotten codicil to the treaty by which the United States bought Alaska from Russia would allow the Soviet Union a single opportunity to recover the territory - by purchasing it back for 100 times the purchase price, or 720 million dollars, after 99 years. President Andrew Johnson could never have forseen the difficulty in which he would one day place President Lyndon Johnson - who's not at all willing to become the first American leader to preside over a reduction in the size of his nation's territory
There's only one problem: the Soviets have lost their copy of the treaty. It's hidden an ancient Russian icon, itself locked in a Swiss safety deposit box. That icon, in turn, has just been mysteriously bequeathed to Adam Scott following the death of his father. As Adam moves to clear up questions surrounding his father's life, the Soviets dispatch Alex Romanov to retrieve the icon. Romanov is himself a very complex and dangerous character, a man whose loyalty to the regime he serves will be undermined by the very memory that he IS a Romanov. This book never slows down, and you'll never forget the scene when the safety deposit box is opened for the last time.
I read this book 5 years ago, and make it a point to read it at least once a year if not more. This book was one of the best fiction books ever written as far as I am concerned.
It is so easy for the fiction author to fall into a trap and write the same old news, sometimes in a tired, but different way. These books are not interesting. Any author who can offer a breath of fresh air to the genre recieves my hats off, and this is due to jeffrey Archer.
This book isn't typical at all, the plot twists are entirely tough to predict,and even though the ending should have been a forgone conclustion (the hero winning) it was done in such a way that I was still very much interested.
The basis of the story is a guy named Adam who is led through many adventures because of an archaic note he got from his fathers will. This letter to his father was written in german, and in trying to get it translated the adventure begins.
His journey and escapes follow across most of Europe, and the action never stops. Somewhat like a James Bond flick, but 100 times better, and in book form is what I would compare this exciting read to.
Read this book, and when you are done, read all the rest of Archers books, you will enjoy each and every one of them.
He opens the envelope and begins to unravel its secrets. Suddenly he's being pursued by the KGB. The defense strategy of the USA is in danger of becoming a pawn to Russia's plan to take over. An imaginative story, building suspense, surprising plot twists and lively writing make this a page-turner. If you like John Le Carre and Robert Ludlum's books, you should love this one.

Windy City! Sarah Jessica Parker Takes Her Kids To School (Photos)Joanna Mazewski
Ok, so she might not be in Chicago but it looks like things are getting quite windy in the Big Apple! Celebrity mom Sarah Jessica Parker was spotted doing the school run with her two daughters, Marion and Tabitha, near their home in New York City on Tuesday morning.

It's still hot and humid down here and I can't even bike my daughter to pre-school without breaking into a drenched sweat. It's like we're having an extended summer in the middle of October.

Benefits of Pancreas Transplant Last for Years in Diabetics
September 13, 1999 (Montreal) -- The benefits of pancreas transplantation in a group of type 1 diabetics have lasted 18 years thus far, according to research published in the September issue of Diabetes. Fifteen out of 16 patients reported that their quality of life improved after they underwent the controversial procedure.
The results are good news for diabetic patients, says Richard A. Dickey, MD, who reviewed the study for WebMD. "Any young person who has a good outlook in terms of their long-term quality of life and productivity could be considered for transplantation," he says. "The important thing is to explain the risks and the benefits, and I do that every week to patients," says Dickey, who is president of the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists. But he adds that pancreatic transplantation is still a very risky procedure that can be fatal.
Diabetes is associated with abnormally high blood sugar levels due to a lack of insulin, which is required for the body to absorb, burn, and store sugar, or glucose, in the bloodstream. In type 1 diabetics, abnormalities of the pancreas make the organ unable to produce insulin. Without pancreas transplantation, patients with type 1 diabetes must get daily insulin injections in order to survive. Successful transplantation also reduces the likelihood of complications from diabetes, which can affect virtually every organ in the body.
"The question has always been, ... just how long is [transplantation] going to work? ... In some people, as the current article points out, you can carry a successful pancreas transplant almost 20 years. ... It doesn't say that everyone's going to have a successful transplant for 20 years, but there are people who have been able to carry that off," says the lead author of the study, R. Paul Robertson, MD. Robertson is CEO/scientific director of the Pacific Northwest Research Institute and an affiliate professor of pharmacology at the University of Washington in Seattle.
The investigators recruited 16 patients, aged 33 to 54, who had had type 1 diabetes for 13 to 30 years and had received a total or partial pancreas transplant 10 to 18 years ago. Twelve patients had also undergone kidney transplantation before, with, or after their pancreas transplantation because their diabetes had caused their kidneys to fail. All patients were taking medication to suppress their immune systems so they would not reject their transplanted pancreases, but none needed to take insulin or other drugs that lower the amount of glucose in the bloodstream.
