In The Girl with the Lower Back Tattoo, Amy mines her past for stories about her teenage years, her family, relationships, and sex and shares the experiences that have shaped who she is - a woman with the courage to bare her soul to stand up for what she believes in, all while making us laugh. Down to earth and relatable, frank and unapologetic, Amy Schumer is one of us: She relies on her sister for advice, still hangs out with her high school pals, and continues to navigate the ever-changing boundaries in love, work, and life.
"Shows there's more than one side to her comedy"
Before Liz Lemon, before "Weekend Update," before "Sarah Palin," Tina Fey was just a young girl with a dream: a recurring stress dream that she was being chased through a local airport by her middle-school gym teacher. She also had a dream that one day she would be a comedian on TV. She has seen both these dreams come true. At last, Tina Fey's story can be told....
"Tina Fey broke my new SUV"
Legendary magician Penn Jillette was approaching his 60th birthday. Topping 330 pounds and saddled with a systolic blood pressure reading over 200, he knew he was at a dangerous crossroads: If he wanted to see his small children grow up, he needed to change. And then came Crazy Ray. A former NASA scientist and an unconventional, passionate innovator, Ray Cronise saved Jillette's life with his wild "potato diet". Outspoken, frank, and bitingly clever, Presto is an incisive, rollicking listen.
"Tall, Fat and Funny Tales"
In Dad is Fat, stand-up comedian Jim Gaffigan, who's best known for his legendary riffs on Hot Pockets, bacon, manatees, and McDonald's, expresses all the joys and horrors of life with five young children - everything from cousins ("celebrities for little kids") to toddlers' communication skills ("they always sound like they have traveled by horseback for hours to deliver important news"), to the eating habits of four-year-olds ("there is no difference between a four-year-old eating a taco and throwing a taco on the floor").
"Good for Gaffigan fans - better for expecting dads"
Adam rips parenthood a new one, telling it straight about what adults must do if they don't want to have to support their kids forever. Using his own crappy childhood as a cautionary tale, and touting the pitfalls of the kind of helicopter parenting so pervasive today, Daddy, Stop Talking is the only parenting book you should ever read.
"More than just hilarious"
"I've experienced a whole lot the last few years and I have a lot to share. So I hope that you'll take a moment to sit back, relax and enjoy the words I've put together for you in this book. I think you'll find I've left no stone unturned, no door unopened, no window unbroken, no rug unvacuumed, no ivories untickled. What I'm saying is, let us begin, shall we?" (Ellen DeGeneres)
"Very Entertaining!"
For fans of Tina Fey and David Sedaris - Internet star Jenny Lawson, aka The Bloggess, makes her literary debut. Jenny Lawson realized that the most mortifying moments of our lives - the ones we'd like to pretend never happened - are in fact the ones that define us. In Let's Pretend This Never Happened, Lawson takes readers on a hilarious journey recalling her bizarre upbringing in rural Texas, her devastatingly awkward high school years, and her relationship with her long-suffering husband, Victor.
"How the Bloggess almost made me crash my car!"
From the unique perspective of David Sedaris comes a new collection of essays taking his listeners on a bizarre and stimulating world tour. From the perils of French dentistry to the eating habits of the Australian kookaburra, from the squat-style toilets of Beijing to the particular wilderness of a North Carolina Costco, we learn about the absurdity and delight of a curious traveler's experiences.
"Devout Fan Disappointed"
David Sedaris' collection of essays - including live recordings! - tells a most unconventional life story. With every clever turn of a phrase, Sedaris brings a view and a voice like no other to every unforgettable encounter. You can also listen to Sedaris in an interview with Terry Gross on Fresh Air.
"Subtly Funny Musings on Life Experiences"
The first installment in Giles Milton's outrageously entertaining series, History's Unknown Chapters: Colorful and accessible, intelligent and illuminating, Milton shows his customary historical flair as he delves into the little-known stories from the past. There's the cook aboard the Titanic who pickled himself with whiskey and survived in the icy seas where most everyone else died. There's the man who survived the atomic bombs in both Hiroshima and Nagasaki. And there's many, many more.
"Quite entertaining"
One part parody, one part fashion fun, and one part personal experience, Grace's latest guide to life as a woman in America today is more H&M than Chanel. So tighten your Banana Republic belt a few notches, and learn how to pretend and convince everyone around you that you've got style and grace!
"Good book! Except this audiobook skipped a part"
Critics have called her "sweet, adorable, and vicious." But there is so much more to be said about Samantha Bee. For one, she's Canadian - whatever that means. And now, she opens up for the very first time about her checkered Canadian past. With charming candor, she admits to her Lennie from Of Mice and Men-style love of baby animals, her teenage crime spree as one-half of a car-thieving couple, and the fact that strangers seem compelled to show her their genitals.
"So Funny!"
Stand-up comedian and author Jim Gaffigan has made his career rhapsodizing over the most treasured dishes of the American diet ("choking on bacon is like getting murdered by your lover") and decrying the worst offenders ("kale is the early morning of foods"). Fans flocked to his New York Times best-selling book Dad Is Fat to hear him riff on fatherhood but now, in his second book, he will give them what they really crave - his thoughts on all things culinary(ish).
"Funny, but read more like a series of jokes"
Going back home was not exactly what Tim and the C&C gang expected. Trouble continues to follow them back to Gulf Coast Mississippi. Trouble...and a gnome...and an undead midget.
"You know the part in Jurassic Park lost world?"
The star of Parks and Recreation and author of the New York Times best seller Paddle Your Own Canoe returns with a second book that humorously highlights 21 figures from our nation's history, from her inception to present day - Nick's personal pantheon of "great Americans".
"Swagger and mirth"
Wherever Chelsea Handler travels, one thing is certain: she always ends up in the land of the ridiculous. Now, in this uproarious collection, she sneaks her sharp wit through airport security and delivers her most absurd and hilarious stories ever.
Anyone who saw an episode of Saturday Night Live between 1999 and 2006 knows Rachel Dratch. She was hilarious! So what happened to her? After a misbegotten part as Jenna on the pilot of 30 Rock, Dratch was only getting offered roles as "Lesbians. Secretaries. Sometimes secretaries who are lesbians." Her career at a low point, Dratch suddenly had time for yoga, dog- sitting, learning Spanish - and dating. After all, what did a forty-something single woman living in New York have to lose?
"Hanging out with Rachel Dratch"
God Is Disappointed in You is for people who would like to read the Bible...if it would just cut to the chase. Stripped of its arcane language and interminable passages, every book of the Bible is condensed down to its core message, in no more than a few pages each. Written by Mark Russell with cartoons by New Yorker cartoonist Shannon Wheeler, God Is Disappointed in You is a frequently hilarious, often shocking, but always accurate retelling of the Bible, including the parts selectively left out by Sunday School teachers.
"The Only Audio Book I Started Again Immediately"
A masterpiece of satire, this classic has entertained and enlightened readers the world over with its sly and ironic portrayal of human life and foibles from the vantage point of Screwtape, a highly placed assistant to "Our Father Below". At once wildly comic, deadly serious, and strikingly original, C.S. Lewis gives us the correspondence of the worldly-wise old Devil to his nephew, Wormwood, a novice demon in charge of securing the damnation of an ordinary young man.
"Haunting Satire"
Academy Award nominee Samuel L. Jackson (Pulp Fiction) rocks this mock bedtime story, capturing a hilarious range of emotions as the voice of a father struggling to get his child to sleep. Go the F**k to Sleep is a bedtime book for parents who live in the real world, where a few snoozing kitties and cutesy rhymes don't always send a toddler sailing blissfully off to dreamland.
"Read the F--king REVIEW!"
Mark Russell & Shannon Wheeler's faithful yet irreverent approach to the Bible made their book God Is Disappointed in You a modern cult classic. Now, by popular demand, they turn their attention to the best parts left out of the canonical Bible, including the Midrash, the Apocrypha, Gnostic Gospels, and more! And if you thought the Bible had some weird stuff in it....
"A Goldmine of Weirdness"
Billions of you have watched their videos, and millions of you have followed them on social media. So here we go: it's time to back up, because YouTube superstars The Sidemen are finally here in audiobook form, and they're dishing the dirt on each other as well as the YouTube universe. There's nowhere to hide as the guys go in hard on their living habits, their football ability, and their dodgy clobber while also talking FIFA, Vegas and superheroes.
Jenny Mollen is an actress and writer living in Los Angeles. She is also a wife, married to a famous guy (which is annoying only because he gets free shit and she doesn't). She doesn't want much from life. Just to be loved - by everybody: her parents, her dogs, her ex-boyfriends, her ex-boyfriends' dogs, her husband, her husband's ex-girlfriends, her husband's ex-girlfriend's new boyfriends, etc.
"not funny."
Emmy Award-winning actor Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad, Malcom in the Middle) follows in the exasperated footsteps of Samuel L. Jackson, giving voice to the long-suffering father whose indifferent child will just not eat in this hilarious follow-up to Adam Mansbach's international best seller, Go the F--k to Sleep.
"Another role that Bryan Cranston plays to a T."
Secret Lives of the U.S. Presidents features outrageous and uncensored profiles of the men in the White House - complete with hundreds of little-known, politically incorrect, and downright wacko facts.
"Sloppy, dull, partisan"
Master storyteller and satirist Kurt Vonnegut was one of the most in-demand commencement speakers of his time. For each occasion, Vonnegut's words were unfailingly unique, insightful, and witty, and they stayed with audience members long after graduation. As edited by Dan Wakefield, this book reads like a narrative in the unique voice that made Vonnegut a hero to readers and listeners of all ages. At times hilarious, razor-sharp, freewheeling, and deeply serious, these reflections are ideal for anyone undergoing what Vonnegut would call their "long-delayed puberty ceremony".
"This IS nice"
Queue up these hilarious real-life stories from the video clerking trenches. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll wash your hands. No rewinding required!
"So. Funny."
They love nothing better than sipping free-trade gourmet coffee, leafing through the Sunday New York Times, and listening to David Sedaris on NPR (ideally all at the same time). Apple products, indie music, food co-ops, and vintage T-shirts make them weak in the knees. They believe they're unique, yet somehow they're all exactly the same.
"Hilarious...but maybe not for everyone"
Growing up in a Philadelphia suburb in the 1970s was an easy life. Well, easy as long as you didn't have dyslexia or ADD, or were a Jew. And once you added gay into the mix, life became more difficult. So Todd Glass decided to hide the gay part, no matter how comic, tragic, or comically tragic the results. Now, Todd has written an open, honest, and hilarious memoir in an effort to help everyone - young and old, gay and straight - breathe a little more freely.
"Worth It"
You'd know Fred Stoller if you saw him. He has appeared on practically every great sitcom you've ever seen - Everybody Loves Raymond, Friends, and Murphy Brown just to name a few. But he has never been a regular on a series, always the guest star. He longs to find a showbiz home. Instead, he is a television foster child, shuttling from show to show in the vain hope that one will finally agree to keep him.
"Great book!"
In Modern Manners, cultural guru P. J. O'Rourke provides the essential accessory for the truly contemporary man or woman - a rulebook for living in a world without rules. Traditionally, good manners were a means of becoming as bland and invisible as everyone else, and thus of avoiding calling attention to one's own awkwardness and stupidity.
Gazing into the bathroom mirror one morning while shaving, Josh Kornbluth realizes that he looks remarkably like the guy on the $100 bill. Like any good Jewish son, he immediately calls his mother. From there he becomes obsessed with what it means to be a founding father, especially when your own father/son relationship (Ben had an illegitimate son named William who was a British loyalist during the Revolutionary War) is more than a bit strained.
"Satirical Disembowelment"
Chris Gethard has often found himself in awkward situations most people, including you, probably would have safely avoided. The good news is now, thanks to this book, you can enjoy the painfully funny consequences of his unfortunate decisions at a safe distance. A Bad Idea I'm About to Do invites listeners to join Chris as he navigates an adolescence and adulthood mired in hilariously ill-fated nerdom, and to take comfort in the fact that - as his experiences often prove - things could always be much, much worse.
"Not as funny as I though"
American writer Samuel Clemens, better known by his pen name Mark Twain has given us some literary gems with Tom Sawyer, Huckleberry Finn and his travel adventures in 19th-century Europe and to Australia and New Zealand. In How to Tell a Story and Other Essays, Twain discusses the telling of stories, rather than providing more stories.
"Does not disappoint! Very funny!"
Perhaps all of Jonathan Ames' problems, and the genesis of this hilarious audiobook, can be traced back to the late onset of his puberty. After all, it can't be easy to be 16 with a hairless penis "undistinguishable from that of a five-year-old's".
"not worth the download"
Your future is...limited! Wait, we mean...limiting...No, hold on...limitless. Sometimes your first steps into the "real world" send you falling flat on your face. It's natural to be optimistic about new experiences, but most of us set ourselves up only to be let down every time. And disappointment hurts like a $%&*#. News flash: You don't have to be an Einstein to survive adult life. You don't even have to abandon your standards to get what you want. All you have to do is keep your expectations realistic.
"If only I had this book in my twenties"
A hilarious field guide to the world's most remarkable and unusual creatures: the English. Who are the English? What is this puzzling species? Where does it live? What are its habits? What does it eat? Why does it eat that? And why has it developed such unexotic mating rituals? Join us on a journey deep into the natural habitat of the English, a journey to rival anything David Attenborough did with gorillas, a journey that begins on a sofa (and continues, unflinchingly, into the kitchen, out into the garden, off to work, down to the pub and then on to the beach...and the bedroom).
Fred Stoller has played the annoying schnook in just about every sitcom you've seen on TV - Friends, Everybody Loves Raymond, Scrubs, Hannah Montana, My Name Is Earl - and was even a staff writer for Seinfeld, but he's never found a solid gig. When it comes to Hollywood, it's a case of always the bridesmaid and never the bride, except in his case he's always the snarky waiter, the mopey cousin, or Man Number Two.
"Who in the world is Fred Stoller?"

This is not a mosquito repellent
Posted by Reviewer2418769 on Mar 31, 2007
This product should not be confused with the highly effective plant-based, mosquito-repelling oil of Lemon Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus citriodora). The above product, NOW Lemon Eucalyptus Oil does not contain any Eucalyptus citriodora, but, in fact, contains Eucalyptus globulus, Lemon Oil (Citrus limon) and Lemongrass Oil (Cymbopogon citratus). Of course, the above product description points this out as well, however, some people (myself, for example) won't bother to read the description and just go ahead and order this product, assuming that NOW Lemon Eucalyptus Oil contains actual Lemon Eucalyptus oil (Eucalyptus citriodora). So while this product might not offer effective protection against mosquitoes, it is pleasantly, albeit strongly, scented.
Not real Lemon Eucalyptus
Posted by Reviewer1967892 on Sep 23, 2015
I feel like I've been had! If you're going to call this Lemon Eucalyptus oil, then it should actually contain Lemon Eucalyptus oil. I bought it to use as a mosquito repellent, and this isn't it. Ya, I know I should read the fine print, but the title is very misleading and I'm not the only reviewer that thinks so. Call it what it is, not what you want people to think it is.
Reasonable priced essential oil

smells good. use it with a carrier oil or put it in the humidifier.

Good product and scent. Repels insects. Costs and delivery are superb.
Will not buy again!
Posted by Reviewer2471080 on Nov 07, 2013
It is way too watery and does not last more than 2 hours on a heated diffuser. The essential oil evaporated without a trace on the diffuser unlike the usual essential oil which will leave a slight yellowish stain. The smell is also very artificial and gives me a headache instead of refreshing the room.

As you learn to leave alone the activity of unconsciously trying to be the mindbody that you think that you are - the mindbody that this "you" is currently flowing through - and you learn to move as this one that you truly are - this "you" of you; the very heart of existence - steadily, consciously and momentarily, the continuity of the ever deepening of this innermost as it keeps on entering its manifestation, through this mindbody that you find yourself flowing through, allows you to simply bubble in the sheer joy, pleasure, peace, delightfulness and stillness that this "you" of you is.

Columbus, Ohio (AP) -- Amtrak says an inventory shortage means that Ohio would need to buy new trains for its planned rail service, and that will challenge the state's 2011 startup date.
Amtrak said in a study released last week that about $175 million in new equipment is needed for trains connecting Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton and Cincinnati.
The agency says train sets, from design to assembly, can take several years to deliver.
Ken Prendergast, executive director of all aboard Ohio, a rail advocacy group, says 2011 may be pushing it.
Ohio transportation officials say they are sticking with that timeframe.
The Amtrak study gave Ohio key data it needs to meet an Oct. 2 deadline to apply for federal stimulus money that President Barack Obama has set aside for rail projects.

John tricked him into renting a piece of property that he had made a terrible investment in, and when my friend (Johnny's brother) could not afford to live in the grime-hole of a home he rented to him (for the full cost of his mortgage), he threw all of his brother's and his girlfriend's belongings out on the street--although they had paid their "rent" (aka --his mortgage) in full and on-time for over 2 years. That was the thanks my friend got for helping his con-artist brother out of hot water (since the property was in such poor condition it should have been condemned). If he could do that to his own flesh and blood imagine what he could do to anyone else. Beware!

Margo Weathers does not follow directions very well and often received a 'N' for needs improvement in that category on report cards. It was not that she believed she was right all of the time, quite the contrary. She has simply always seen 'what can be' rather than 'what is'. She continues to spread that vision in both textured and non-textured form. Part of that practice is stretching the patience of the Postal workers behind the glass windows - or in some cases - inspiring them. Weathers currently resides in seat 4A with her stamp collection and prays for the survival of the United States Postal Service.

Several area legislators believe reform of Pennsylvania's massive General Assembly bureaucracy is not only needed, but likely next year.
There are more than 2,800 people working for the Pennsylvania House and Senate, still the most of any state legislature in the nation.
Some see the November election of a new governor — Republican Tom Corbett and Democrat Dan Onorato are competing to succeed incumbent Ed Rendell — as an opportunity to reform a bloated and mostly partisan staffing system.
"Based on watching both gubernatorial candidates throwing the politics out of it, I believe you're going to see a restructuring of government from either candidate," said Rep. Mike Peifer, R-139.
Rep. Mario Scavello, R-176, agreed the new governor will have a unique opportunity, working with House and Senate Democrats and Republicans, to reform the process.
"I would hope the governor would set all four caucuses down because it's going to be a lean year," Scavello said. "There won't be any stimulus money" from the federal government to close budget gaps.
Rep. John Siptroth, D-189, says party duplication of effort at the committee level could be reduced by combining some work. But party policy committees should continue to have staffs operating separately because the policies represent competing visions for government, he added.
"Policy is just driving an issue with a political will," Siptroth said. "There's a philosophical difference between the Democratic and Republican Party, so we do have set policies for the direction you want to go in."
Sen. Lisa Boscola says staffing levels and employee fringe benefits should be consistent not only within the state Legislature, but also in the governor's office and the state judiciary.
"It has to be all three branches," Boscola said. "You can't just pick one."

Raanjhanaa Twitter Review: Dhanush Gets Thumbs Up
Tamil star Dhanush is ready for the acid test as the D-day has finally arrived. His debut Bollywood movie Raanjhanaa is releasing today (June 21) and early reports say that the film has won the hearts of the audience. More importantly, the 'Kolaver di...' hitmaker has kept his best foot forward as he has impressed audience, and people have started showering praises on social networking site Twitter.
Raanjhanaa is an intense love story, in which Dhanush plays a role of local Varanasi boy, whereas Abhay and Sonam play as Jawaharlal Nehru university colleagues. Their characters would be known to one another for eight years.
First love in anyone's life holds a special place especially if the memory is filled with the vibrant musings of the city that you grew up in. Banaras holds a special place in Kundans heart, because not only did he grow up as a typical, god fearing, shiv bhakt-Pandit, but also because it was the city that gave him Zoya.
It is the story of Kundan, his journey from a 13 year old boy in love who goes on to become a committed, spirited young man, whose experiences in life made him the person he is today. It's the story of love. People, who have seen the film already, are praising the movie and actor's performance. Here we are bringing you some of the tweet reviews...follow the slideshow...

Welcome to My Massage World.
We strive to be the one stop premier resource center for Massage Therapists across the United States. Offering a variety of features, services, and classes we hope to expand your career, your business, and the profession as a whole.
Just take a look at what we have!
- Continuing Education

- Mentoring Services
We're always adding new classes, features, and services so check back often and subscribe to receive updates.
My Massage World began as a dream of an ideal resource center where massage therapists could have access to high quality, affordable, and easily accessible continuing education. Starting the company under the name My Massage Therapy Continuing Education, I soon began getting requests for more and more help beyond the scope of just CE classes. Therapists filled my inbox with a wide variety of professional questions along with stories of struggle building a successful business. I heard numerous therapists who were disappointed in their general massage education and didn't feel prepared for their career as a massage therapist. One of the biggest complaints I heard again and again was that schools weren't covering the business aspect of the massage profession with any sort of real world application and detail. Nor did they have a clear idea of what direction they wanted to go in concerning techniques, specialization, etc. This isn't all schools but it seems to be the unfortunate majority. As a therapist who taught a full massage program, I also understand the struggle of your educators with fitting as much information in as possible in the short amount of hours required.
However, no matter the reason, therapists are struggling to understand how to establish a successful business. As much as I want to personally help other therapists I know I cannot do it alone, nor will I ever claim to be an expert in all things business. What works for me, with my experience and in my area, may not apply to someone with a different skill set and location. This is why I'm bringing on other instructors and mentors to help guide you in any way we can. This includes CE classes as well as advice, knowledge, and services that can help you build that business around whatever path you choose in this vast field of work. Together we hope to bring you the most comprehensive resource center available. Take a look around our site and see all that we have to offer and be sure to check back often as we are constantly growing. If you would like to be a part of our team, please click here.

Tess of the D'Urbervilles
by Thomas Hardy
Symbolism, Imagery, Allegory
The club-walking scene at the beginning of Chapter Two has to be important, because it's the first time we see Tess. And what's she doing? She's participating in the modern form of what is actually an ancient tradition that had to do with worshipping the earth and the fertility goddesses. Tess and the other women of Marlott don't know about the origins of their club-walking, but they perform the traditional ceremony every year just the same.
The narrator says that of all the villages in that part of England, "the club of Marlott alone lived to uphold the local Cerealia. It had walked for hundreds of years, and it walked still" (2.6). The "Cerealia" is a ceremony worshipping the Roman goddess "Ceres," the goddess of the earth and all growing things (including wheat and other "cereal" grains).
It was traditionally a female ceremony—no boys allowed—because women were associated with fertility (what with child-bearing and all), and men weren't. So this early scene ties Tess to an ancient female lineage that is even older than the D'Urberville family on her father's side. It also associates her with fertility rituals and Nature with a capital "N."

Many of the federal mine safety regulations passed into law go into effect soon and mine operators are working to make sure they comply.
Several mines are already paying fines for violations under the Federal Miner Act, and with several more regulations about to go into affect; mine operators are working to comply with them.
"To where we can be ahead and safe as we can throughout the four states we mine in," Rick Shelton said.
Carroll Engineering held an expo to help coal companies get up to date with equipment approved by the Mine Safety and Health Administration.
"One of the miner act requirements is going to be personnel tracking and tagging to be able to find people in emergency situations underground," Clark Johnson said.
"Our beacon light, plus a large horn that goes off," Connie Hendren said.
Soon all mines will be required to have a refuge chamber that will allow miners to survive longer during an emergency.
As federal regulators get ready to implement all of the new safety rules, this expo gave coal operators a chance to get ready for them.
Coal operators say this is just one more step in their effort to be prepared for the worst.
The deadline for M-SHA to implement all of those new safety regulations is June of next year.

Welcome to Fisherman's Cove!
You have come to the only place to find out one of Siesta Key's best kept secrets, Fisherman's Cove, at the South End of Siesta Key!
We are Unique!
We are located at the far South End of Siesta Key, next to Turtle Beach, the quiet Siesta Key public beach where the locals come to get away from the crowds. We are next to an "old Florida" park, surrounded by water on both sides. You can see wild Green Parrots!
Our beach has been restored and completed in March 2016. We now have over 200 feet of new sandy beach both directly in front of our rental units and on Turtle Beach! Please visit our FaceBook page for current photos and we will soon redesign our website with photography as well. We look forward to welcoming you!
Protect Yourself - be careful WHO you rent from!
The Internet is loaded with RENTAL SCAMS these days! (For Example: Do not trust any Fisherman's Cove ads on CraigsList Florida). Please be very careful whom you deal with. Unscrupulous scammers steal photos of actual rentals and advertise them as if they owned them, then solicit downpayments from unsuspecting folks looking for rentals. Our best advice is DO NOT SEND FUNDS to anyone until you are sure exactly who you are dealing with. If you have any doubts at all concerning a Fisherman's Cove rental, please contact our rental office here at 941-349-1400 and we will do our best to help you.

I've been talking to a number of wannabes—wannabes in the traditional men's wear business who are itching to crash the contemporary market. And on the other side of the fence, wannabes in the premium business eager to expand their jeans, T-shirt and hoodies lines and break into full-blown collections. What's behind this urge to surge into new areas? First, with the mainstream market flagging, department store vendors want to grab a piece of the explosive 18-to-35 market where there's plenty of action. And they're finally facing the fact that they have to think outside the box, reinvent themselves, and explore areas and products that were once taboo. At the same time, premium makers are taking their cue from the jeans customer who's adding on to his wardrobe, and buying everything from suit separates to cashmere sweaters. As a result, both conventional manufacturers as well as cutting-edge denim companies are trying to connect with new partners for sourcing, manufacturing expertise and distribution.
The process used to be fairly simple for a veteran men's wear company. If it had a strong label and wanted to invade a new category, it was as easy as contacting a licensing agent who knew the specialists and made the connection with a prospective licensee. Other options included doing the new category in-house or investing in or buying another company.
On the other hand, for top denim companies adding a new classification and eventually doing the selling, it's all about finding the factory or manufacturer that can produce the right product for their coveted premium label, which the ultimate consumer swears by and buys, regardless of the category.
Typical of the new young blood in the jeans market are partners Andrew Cavitolo and Lucas Gittone of Bohden James, who launched a full collection of everything from tailored and soft suit separates to outerwear, sweaters, knits and wovens, and T-shirts at the last Project show.
"We were new at the game and had a sourcing agent in the U.S.," says Cavitolo. "We also hired a designer/production man who knew sourcing and [we] took his leads. Today, we're working with four offshore factories, but we had to learn about minimums and the basics of sourcing."
The team also wanted to go into sweaters and found a maker by going to a department store and checking the labels in merchandise there for the RN numbers, then tracking down the maker's name online. The rest was easy, Cavitolo explains.
"If you're going into new classifications, do your research, go to the sourcing shows, take your time, and make sure the quality and make of the new product won't lose the integrity of your brand. The process of breaking into a new category can take as long as a year."
Another newcomer is Michael Paradise of The Stronghold, who has a retail shop in Venice, Calif., and went into the wholesale business as a contemporary resource. He modeled his business after the store, which sells men from 25 to 60-plus. To check out his concept, that contemporary is a state of mind and not an age, he used the jeans classification as his litmus test.
"Young guys wear my core-fit jeans loose versus the gentlemen who wear them as properly fitted jeans," he says. "I call them Levi's for grown-ups."
Because his company's American brand dates back to 1895, he sources everything in the U.S. How did he find American factories? "By word of mouth, and talking to our fabric and trimming suppliers. We also searched online for manufacturers and for old companies that are still around, and we contacted them directly."
Looking forward, Paradise says, "There's a point where premium turns into luxury and price is no object. The concept works in my store. A year ago, we put in $300 denims, and custom and bespoke jeans that retailed up to $1,100. The customer who embraced them was 35-plus and he never asks the price. I'm going after the guy who doesn't go to a premium jeans store, but goes to a Forum store, like Mario's."
How are traditional makers going contemporary? Commenting on his recent acquisition of Kroon, the contemporary sport coat company, Jim Ammeen of Neema says, "There's no question that we wanted to be in contemporary clothing. We already had BCBG Attitude, also Coconut Grove, which are promoted along the same lines. The Kroon people sought us out and there was a good fit with the direction we're taking our company."
His advice to a premium-jeans company wanting to break into contemporary clothing? "Hook up with someone in a strategic relationship who understands and has the salesmanship to market the product. It's the same as our going into jeans. It's a different business, and a clothing company, for example, isn't going to be as good at jeans as the people doing it every day."
After surveying the situation in both the mainstream and contemporary markets for likely prospects, licensing agent Mort Gordon of MG Enterprises calls them "unexplored and lucrative territories." Still, he explains, "The process isn't as easy for a mainstream manufacturer who decides to get into the premium business. Chances are the company lacks the right image, attitude and salespeople to sell a different kind of retailer. It adds up to a lot of cool."
He says that most of the big premium companies he's talked to are either doing it themselves or trying to. "They're sourcing for themselves in China and elsewhere, for the time being. They're not that interested in getting together with a conventional manufacturer. However, they go outside if it's not their core product and farm out something like accessories, watches, bags, etc."
His advice to jeans people: "Pick the right company that can interpret and market products that will work with premium bottoms." And about men's wear companies: "They have to convince the jeans company that they understand the jeans customer and can execute the product better, and for less."
Traditional topcoat manufacturer Harvey Arfa of Gruner is trying "to find the consumer who's not necessarily looking for a coat in the tailored clothing department. He may see it as sportswear or as part of his jeans outfit."
How is he going about connecting with a premium company? "We'd like to partner with a jeans company on a joint-marketing effort or in a licensing arrangement. Financially, they don't need me and I don't need them. I'm scheduling meetings right now with several major non-tailored companies and I have a positive case for it."
Like I said, dial "C" for connections.

Brian told me it would take 2 to 2 and 1/2 hours, and to come back, or he'd call me on my cell phone when the car was ready. So after 2 hours, he calls to tell me that the front end can't be aligned, because my bearings are bad, and there's a lot of play in the front end. Something else I never noticed. So, he says in order to do the alignment, he'd have to repair the bearings, and would cut me a break on the labor charges, and that this would all come to $599.00. I told him to forget it.
Brian said one of the mechanics would bring the car out to me. So, after waiting while no one bothered to get the car to me, I went and got the car myself. There were about ten people in the service area doing absolutely Nothing.
I got my car and left, and called NTB, and asked to speak to Brian, who got on the phone, and as I began to state my case, he screamed at me, and refused to let me finish a sentence. How is it possible to be that rude to a customer? I said that the 3 three front end alignment was the most expensive front end alignment I ever had, as it was only 1 front end alignment, as I won't go back there.
Well, I took the car to my son, and he checked everything. Tires were fine, and absolutely nothing whatsoever wrong with the front end of my taurus.
My son went with me to NTB in Monaca, Beaver County. Same company, mind you. They were very professional, did a 14 point service check, and all they found was my oil was low. They rotated the tires, and did the front end alignment.
Bottom line, is Brian was looking to scam me, and I don't appreciate how he screamed at me. His whole staff there are a bunch of lazy bums.

An oblivious janitor mops up the blood without a second thought.In his chambers, Mr. Sinister considers the recently deceased X-Men. He relishes that their formidability speaks volumes of his own worth. Malice approaches and takes him out of his reverie. She is infuriated that she is now trapped in the Polaris's body. Sinister assures her that she is his most trusted asset and the compatibility of Polaris's body with Malice's essence was too good to pass up.

Things, however, heat up, and Havok is convinced that the two are kindred souls that need their pain eased.Mr. Sinister muses to himself that he will ultimately prevail, especially since he has the son of Cyclops. Unbeknownst to him, however, is that N'astirh watches.Madelyne paces after her night with Havok. N'astirh contacts her and assures her that all is going well. Madelyne explains that it better. The two have a deal and she won't rest until the Marauders are found and Madelyne has her son back.

YOUR opinion on these subjects and why you would choose them...
Geography or History
|Posted on
Women's suffrage >>>>>>>>>> Soil science
Urban geography >>>>>>>>>> Lead up to WWII
Overall I like geography better but history is still awesome
Both are brilliant, but I prefer history personally. History is just sooo good; it's my best thing
I love Physical Geography
Also, history isn't anywhere near as useful as Geog
History by a long long long long way
I do both... Physical geography, two thumbs up. The rest, however, is a big fat bore (imo anyway)!
Which brings me to history: No word of a lie, it's the only lesson which I actually fully 100% focus in(no phone,no nothing lol)... It's so damn interesting! Once something captivates your interest, you don't mind writing an essay about it nor does it take you ages to revise the concepts! So yeah, I'd say history
(Original post by WizardOfOz#1)
I do both... Physical geography, two thumbs up. The rest, however, is a big fat bore (imo anyway)!
History ftw, because only clever people study it.
(Original post by chr1stopher11)
Physical geography is the most boring part of geography!! Human geography is the bomb Sometimes I couldn't care less about soil or rivers or limestone pavements or wave-cut platforms or vegetation succession........ the list goes on.
Have you taken it for a level?
physical geography > human geography > history.
I study history at A-level although I didn't take it at GCSE (should have done really, chose French instead) because I wanted to understand more about British history and the world wars, plus I'm much better at writing essays than short technical answers. I took Geography at GCSE but hated the coursework and human geography really really bores me.
(Original post by WizardOfOz#1)
! This is the sad bit, I haven't learnt any of the things that you have listed! Two of our units are based on human geography (urbanisation and tourism) and only one is based (natural hazards: wildfires, earthquakes, volcanoes and tropical storms) on physical geog I'm not even commenting on the bit in bold, it's just shocking LOL! It's ten times better to learn about the earth than how tourism is forever fluctuating in different parts of the world I mean crikey :/ lol!
Have you taken it for a level?
No I do Scottish Highers instead of A Levels but I think they are similar in content. But I am going to do geography (BA, so more human than physical) at university
They my 2 fav subjects, but if I had to choose, I would say...
Everyone that i know that did geography finds it so much harder because of the case studies...I did history for gcse and it was so good, all you have to do is write essays and do a bit of coursework its really fun i'd say history

Arthritis Health Center
Lyme Disease - Cause
Lyme disease is caused by Borrelia burgdorferi bacteria. Infected ticks spread the bacteria by biting people or animals.
Two types of ticks carry the Lyme disease bacteria in the U.S. They are:
- Deer ticks . They spread the disease in the Northeast and Midwest.
- Western black-legged ticks . They spread the disease along the Pacific coast, mostly in northern California and Oregon.
Dogs, cats, and horses can become infected with Lyme disease bacteria, but they can't pass the illness to humans. But infected ticks may fall off the animals and then bite and infect humans.

Double-chasing Warrington expect to be at full strength for Saturday's Super League semi-final against St Helens at Langtree Park.
Prop forward Garreth Carvell is set to return after missing last Saturday's 24-12 win over Hull with back spasms and coach Tony Smith is confident second rower Ben Westwood will also return after being out for a month with a knee injury.
"There's a chance of both of them playing so, aside from Gareth O'Brien, we could be at full strength," Smith said. "I'm pretty confident Carvs will be available to us and there's a fair chance Benny might make it too so we've got a pretty clean bill of health and some real problems in selection."
Westwood, one of three players short-listed for the Man of Steel award, has not played since damaging a knee in the Wolves' Challenge Cup final win over Leeds at Wembley and was sorely missed in their home play-off defeat by Saints.
"He's had a great year," Smith said. "I'm not surprised he's up for Man of Steel. He's deserved that nomination. He's in there with some pretty high-calibre players and he's not out of place in my eyes. He works hard for us and performs well on each and every occasion. We've shown we can cope without him but it would be nice to have him there with us."
Mike Cooper and Simon Grix are the players likely to make way, enabling Smith to field his Wembley line-up.
St Helens' only absentee will be centre Michael Shenton, who broke a bone in his hand during his side's win at Wigan in the last match of the regular season which proved to be his last for the club as he prepares to return to Castleford.
Australian back rower Chris Flannery, who has missed the last three matches with a calf injury, is expected to return for what he hopes will be the penultimate match of his career as he gets ready for retirement.
"He's a chance of coming back but obviously we had a good performance last time out," said St Helens caretaker coach Mike Rush.
"He'll be in the squad but we won't pick a team until Thursday evening or Friday morning. He's training very hard so he's given himself every chance. He probably could have played in the last game if it was do or die and he's trained for the last two weeks."
