Ed W (guest)Initial reactions:
- Can't wait for Dan to live-tweet the premiere of Piers Morgan's show.
- Will Terra Nova succeeding doom Fringe?
- I expect most critics will love Light's Out as they do all of FX's shows but to me FX is just Archer plus a bunch of other stuff I'm not interested in.
- Eva Green on Starz!December 31, 2010 at 2:54AM ESTReply to Comment
danEd -
- Heaven help me if I live-tweet Piers Morgan's first show! Sigh. Now I'm going to feel like I need to.
- Terra Nova already has a place on FOX's schedule for the fall, so I'd guess it probably has no real bearing. "Fringe" will survive by holding its current numbers on Fridays, probably no other way.
- Only watched the "Lights Out" pilot so far. It's terrific. Watching more this weekend...
- Eva Green is the only reason I'm looking forward to Camelot. Or else I'll skip that and just watch "The Dreamers" again...

ShitegeistYou couldn't include Luck in the article because you didn't have a photo, yet you include X-Factor with a generic Simon Cowell photo? Surely you could have just used a generic photo of Dustin Hoffman?December 31, 2010 at 4:04AM ESTReply to Comment
danShitegeist - Just as Oprah is effectively Oprah as the operator of her own cable network, Simon Cowell is Simon Cowell as judge and producer of "X Factor" (heck, the generic picture we used was actually Cowell arriving for the UK finale of "X Factor" earlier this month).
That was my rationale at least...December 31, 2010 at 12:25PM EST
ShitegeistFair enough, just nitpicking!December 31, 2010 at 12:45PM EST
(guest)Seems like you struggled to find 20 shows to fill the list. Some awful looking shows, mostle reality, premiering this year.
Looking forward to Lights Out, Game of Thrones, The Killing and Chicago Code. Will give Shameless and Episodes a lot, but expect the same mediocrity I usually get from Showtime.
Interested to see how Syfy goes with adapting Being Human. Hoping for as little green screen as possible.
Am also very interested to see if Wilfred is as hit-n-miss on American TV as it is on Australian TV. At times the show is hilarious but most of the time it's dull and a little too dark with it's humour. Hopefully Gann brings along the giant Winnie the Pooh stuffed toy with him, because the one great laugh I always get from the show is a grown man in a dog suit humping a giant Winnie the Pooh toy.December 31, 2010 at 4:07AM ESTReply to Comment
MulderismI wish oprah would just go away. Seriously, does this egomaniac need to have her own bloody network now?
Apologies to her legion of fans. I'm just sick to death of her and I never even seen one episode of her show.December 31, 2010 at 5:17AM ESTReply to Comment
SareetaI'm not excited about her new network, but just curious how you can hate her if you've never seen an episode of her show?December 31, 2010 at 11:03AM EST
LJACosign.December 31, 2010 at 11:04AM EST
MulderismSorry. I don't *hate* her - I never said I did. I'm just tired of hearing about her all the time and seeing her face at the checkout counter.
I'm sure she has done a lot of good and people love her show/magazine/books. But it seems it's all about her. She names her magazine after herself and has her picture on every cover. Why not call it "Women of Inspiration" or something instead of naming it after herself?
Anyway, end of rant. Apologies if I have offended fans.December 31, 2010 at 6:13PM EST
velocityknownFirst off, how many new shows are they going to give Christian Slater before they realize he's not a star?
Really looking forward to "The Cape" and "The Killing". Summer Glau has enough of my respect to buy at least a few episodes from me, not to mention the trailer for the show is fairly intriguing.
Have seen nothing but promotional images and synopses from "The Killing", but it's an AMC original series so how could I not get excited?
I could take or leave "Terra Nova", Spielberg and his animation projects tend to annoy me. I might watch, but it'll take an captivating trailer to draw me in now.
I'm also excited for the possible demise of American Idol (fingers crossed!).December 31, 2010 at 9:14AM ESTReply to Comment
cletus van damme (guest)You have time to include reality crap and Oprah thingies in this list, but you don't have the time to watch Spartacus? Despite that you know that a lot of viewers and critics say that it started to become really good with episode 5 and that it delivered one of the Top 5 season finales of 2010. Watch it, lazy ass and you will weep in shame for including Vampire Diaries in your Top 10. ;)
Actually you should weep in shame already ...VD better than Walking Dead, Sons of Anarchy, True Blood, Fringe, Dexter, Modern Family, Archer, The Office, Entourage, How to make it in America, Parks & Recreation, Hung, Rescue Me, How I me your Mother, Bored to Death, Eastbound & Down, Nurse Jackie, US of Tara, Louie, Southland, V, Weeds, Treme, South Park, Futurama... unbelievable. SHAME on you, Mr, Fienberg. Shame on you!
my personal most wanted:
1.Game of Thrones
3.Lights Out
4.Falling Skies
without order but still really high hopes:
Outcasts (BBC America)
Terra Nova
The Borgias
Mildred Pierce
The Chicago Code
Mr. Sunshine
The Cape
Harry's Law
The Killing
and if they start in 2011 Hell on Wheels, Locke & Key, Powers, Homeland, Hulk, Veep, Tilda, Battlestar Galactica: Blood, Chrome and Sand, Magic City (Starz Boardwalk Empire meets Mad Men) and Boss (the Starz show with Kelsey Grammer).December 31, 2010 at 10:16AM ESTReply to Comment
danCletus - Once you mentioned "Entourage" as a show I should be ashamed to have left off my Top 10, I tuned you out. And I watched six or seven episodes of "Spartacus," believe. I absolutely get why some people like it -- some people continued to love "300" -- but I never felt my overall opinion swayed. And of the non-"Entourage" shows you listed, the only one I don't watch regularly is "Southland" and yet I stand by my list...
As for the "if they start in 2011" list, we excluded anything that didn't have at least a tentative 2011 premiere already, so things that haven't even been ordered to series -- "Veep," "Tilda," the "BSG" prequel, "Magic City" -- certainly wouldn't have counted...
-DanielDecember 31, 2010 at 12:23PM EST
cletus van dammeCome on, even if you really like Vampire Diaries (for some kind of reason) you can't see it than more as a guilty pleasure. While it seems to be en vogue to bash Entourage it's still highly addictive entertainment for a lot of people. Piven, Dillon and co. are as good as always (or as bad as always when it comes to Grenier).
Actually I wouldn't even call it guilty pleasure because this season they didn't just repeat the same ol concept and started to push the characters from self caricature into new directions in their lives. Still a great comedy.
As for Spartacus. It started like a low budget version of 300 meets Caligula in it's first episodes but it did have a lot more in common with Rome on crack in the second half of the season. John Hannah was brilliant as Batiatus and Xena was a real surprise.
P.S. I forgot In Treatment on the shame on you list. Shame on me. I would even put Glee, Human Target and Grey over Vampire Diaries. Really can't stand that guy from Lost. The male lead is even worse and I hate everything that uses Vampire kitsch and/or Teenie-Soap-elements without a lot ...a lot... of irony or as biting satire ...like True Blood.
Like "Boss" "Magic City" got a direct series order (10 episodes), but it seems to aim for a 2012 start.December 31, 2010 at 2:38PM EST
danCletus - You're correct on "Magic City" getting that 10-ep pickup, but as you say, it's not going to be ready before 2012, since it currently has no cast and whatnot...
As for "Spartacus," I've seen "Rome on Crack." It was called "Rome" and I preferred it to "Spartacus," though I even grew tired of its affectations...
And honestly, yes, I do see "Vampire Diaries" as more than just a guilty pleasure. I've watched plenty of bad teen soaps for long periods of time without ever feeling anything more than just that "guilty pleasure" sensation. "Vampire Diaries" is far better than that and I have no trouble hailing it as the best piece of popcorn storytelling on network TV. There's a place for that on a Best of list.
And it's been en vogue to bash "Entourage" for three or four seasons now, largely because it's awful. I'll grant, though, that this past "Entourage" season was less bad than the two or three that preceded it. Absolutely...
-DanielDecember 31, 2010 at 3:11PM EST
cletus van dammeWhile I don't think Vampire Diaries deserves that much praise I find it perfectly fine to include "the best piece of popcorn Tv" in a Top 10 list.
That's why I don't have a problem to put Spartacus or True Blood over Mad Men in my Top 10 of 2010. (Sons of Anarchy, Breaking Bad and Boardwalk Empire would be my Top 3). While I like the look and feel of Weiner's show and admire it for it's ambitions I don't really care about the characters and oftentimes it tries so hard you could call it the most pretentious show in TV since Tell me you love me (which wasn't bad either).
speaking of Popcorn Tv. Just realized you didn't include Lost in your Top 10. Of course it did have some problems(not for me personally, though. Never expected a lot of answers and I loved the emotional finale. The (in retrospect) pointless Temple arc was at least entertaining and an excuse to have John Hawkes in a series can never be bad.), but if there ever was a show that deserved some bonus for the entire run it's Lost.
I really can't imagine that there will ever be a network series as original, ambitious and powerful as Lost. Even the start of promising new shows and old favorites in January can't make up for the fact that this will be the first midseason since 6 years without that perfect rollercoaster ride. Hardest cancellation/series end since Deadwood. After The Shield went out on top there was at least a show that would soon proof itself as a worthy sucessor (SOA). I like V and Fringe, but the first one will be cancelled before it can grow from a good to a great show and the letter one had way to many mediocre episode..and will soon be cancelled too. Ok, there actually is one show that could mop the floor with Lost, but I don't have a lot of hope that The Dark Tower cinema/TV-series hybrid will be a long running success.December 31, 2010 at 4:27PM EST
LJAI'm so sick of Off The Map ads, I want to punch that damn show in the throat. There's not a chance in hell I'll tune in to another Shonda Rhimes crapfest.
So is Chicago Code more like Terriers, The Shield, or something else? The ads make it look like mindnumbingly car chase/shoot-em-up, but I'm willing to give a Shawn Ryan show a shot if you guys recommend it.December 31, 2010 at 11:00AM ESTReply to Comment
danLJA - "Chicago Code" is probably more like "The Shield" than "Terriers," but it isn't especially like "The Shield" either. It's a cop show for people who like cop shows, but also a cop show for people who, like me, aren't inclined to like strictly procedural cop shows...

SareetaI'm most interested in (and most likely to watch):
1. Game of Thrones (The books are awesome and Sean Bean is in it. Need I say more?)
2. Camelot (Even though the only Starz show I have enjoyed has been Spartacus, I'm curious about this one. I'm also impressed that Starz is not afraid to do genre shows. Plus I love a good medieval fantasy story with magic and pretty costumes. Maybe Joseph Fiennes has finally found a redeeming role since that awful Flashforward. Interesting tidbit: Jamie Cambell Bower was supposed to play a role in Game of Thrones but had already committed to Camelot when his scenes from GoT ended up being reshot)
3. Lights Out (Boxing + the network that created The Shield & Sons of Anarchy sounds like a winning combination for an intense, brutal drama)
4. The Killing (I trust AMC and the promos look really good)
5. Spartacus: God of the Arena (It won't be the same without Andy Whitfield, but thankfully this show has other equally interesting characters. I'm still hoping they just focus on one of these characters for season 2 (Crixus!!!) rather than recast Spartacus)
Not mentioned but interested in:
1. Hell on Wheels
I'm vaguely interested in:
1. Shameless - but since I don't have Showtime, I'll have to wait for DVDs.
2. The Cape
3. Being Human - the original wasn't perfect and I'm still bitter about the Caprica cancellation, especially since I've heard the final episodes were very, very good), but the premise sounds good. Hopefully they take the best of the original (character relationships) and improve on the worst (terrible werewolf transformation effects, too many different genres stuffed into one show)
4. Terra Nova (ditto on Spielberg + dinosaurs... hopefully there's great characters and story mixed in with pretty FX)
5. Falling Skies (Even though this sounds like V meets The Walking Dead, I like Spielberg and am craving a good alien story)
6. Wilfred (Elijah Wood! I'm not big on comedies, but this one sounds pretty goofy in a good way. I'm hoping for a dark comedy with the kind of quirky humor from Flight of the Conchords)
7. The Chicago CodeDecember 31, 2010 at 11:41AM ESTReply to Comment
danSareeta - If "Hell on Wheels" had even a tentative 2011 premiere, we'd have included it here in some way, I'm sure. It's unclear if AMC is even going to need it this year if "The Killing" and then "Breaking Bad," "Mad Men" and "The Walking Dead" all air alone of Sundays through the spring and fall and then winter...
-DanielDecember 31, 2010 at 12:27PM EST
ChrissyI'm looking forward to Lights Out and Terra Nova (and Game of Thrones, but Comcast has so far proved themselves incapable or unwilling to work out the issues with our line that prevent us from getting HBO. So I'm not holding my breath.)
How sad am I, though, that my first thought upon seeing that Noah Wylie has a new show was chagrin that this might mean he doesn't have time to make any more Librarian movies?December 31, 2010 at 12:39PM ESTReply to Comment

QuimbosAs a fan of the book series I've been following the production of Game of Thrones for a while. While I knew that Starz has the similarly genred Camelot in production I had no idea that it would be debuting days to only a couple weeks immediately before Thrones. What impact do you guys think having another cable fantasy series debuting immediately before Thrones could have? Will casual TV viewers be turned off by a second fantasy series in a month? Is there enough casual tv interest to support two large scale fantasy epics? Is Starz enough of a niche network with only limited original programming ratings success to have little to no effect on an HBO fantasy series with a built in fan base?December 31, 2010 at 5:07PM ESTReply to Comment
(guest)Small nitpick here, but why does Showtime feel the need to tack on the "s" in "The Borgias" when "The Borgia" would be plural on its own? Just my Assassin's Creed fanboyism here.December 31, 2010 at 5:08PM ESTReply to Comment
jdtviDan have you read A Game of Thrones?December 31, 2010 at 8:07PM ESTReply to Comment
danJDTVI - I've read the first book. I rushed through it and went straight into the second and hit fatigue. I should probably pick up the second book and start again, though I know that I'm ahead of the game for the purposes of the first season of the TV series...
-DanielDecember 31, 2010 at 8:27PM EST
Guesser (guest)With its budget and cast, I have complete faith that "Game of Thrones" will be a must-watch of high quality in season 1. Hypothetically, should it get renewed, I'm more curious to see how the TV series will end. No spoilers here, but those who have read all four books will understand.
George R. R. Martin has basically lost interest in the series (he candidly admits to writer's block on his website, book 4 was the equivalent of "Stranger in a Strange Land" relative to the first three installments, and book 5 was supposed to be out in 2005). I am curious as to if there will be some sort of alternate ending to wrap it all up or if it will strictly adhere to the books.January 1, 2011 at 1:13AM ESTReply to Comment
GuesserI should add though, it surely speaks to the quality of this author's work (at least through the first three books) and potential of this story as a TV series if HBO is willing to put up such a large investment to televise a series of novels which remains unfinished.January 1, 2011 at 1:20AM EST

This track is absolutely unplugged, featuring Acoustic Guitars and Corpus Tapping. It's that simple and it sounds melancholic, dreamy and hopeful at the same time. One guitar after another is playing its own melody and builds up the track slowly. After the climax there is another short part which leads back to the first theme.
If you need a track that is warm and mellow, "Long Road" is your choice! The ZIP contains TWO VERSIONS of this song: With and without Percussion. Both are available as MP3 and WAV.
This track is perfect for all commercial, promotional and corporate uses, Youtube videos and any other purposes that can benefit from the uplifting "dreamy"-sound.

Sept. 4, 1933 – Feb. 18, 2013
Mary Lou Stobie of the Town of Tonawanda, who devoted countless hours to volunteer work, died Monday in Kenmore Mercy Hospital. She was 79.
Born in Buffalo, the former Mary Lou Clark was valedictorian of her class at Girls Vocational High School. She worked as a seamstress for the Sample shops before leaving to raise her family.
Mrs. Stobie began volunteer work as a den mother for Cub Scouts, then was a Girl Scout leader and was active in the PTA in her children's schools.
She did volunteer work for 22 years for Schofield Residence, where she was honored in 2002 for giving 2,000 hours of service. She also volunteered in offices and did fundraising for the American Lung Association, the American Cancer Society, the American Red Cross, the Food Shuttle of Western New York and Buffalo Veterans Affairs Medical Center.
She began donating whole blood for the American Red Cross in 1965 and became an apheresis donor in 1978 after her father died from cancer. She continued donating every two weeks until last year. In all, she made 714 donation visits and gave 89 gallons of blood.
She also was a member of the Ladies Auxiliary of Milton J. Brounshidle Post 205, American Legion; the Suburban Serenaders; and Zion United Church of Christ, where she sang in the choir and played in the handbell group.
Her husband of 51 years, Harry D., died in 2004.
Surviving are three daughters, Barbara Schraufstetter, Karen Howard and Darlene Evans; a son, Harry Jr.; and a sister, Rita Chambers.
A memorial service will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday in Zion United Church of Christ, Parker Boulevard and Koenig Circle, Town of Tonawanda.

Winner Update: This Giveaway is now closed. While we wish all of you who entered could have won a $5o gift card to HomeGoods we had to randomly pick 4 winners. So congrats to MeganF who said, "LOVE homegoods! Would love to put together a gorgeous Christmas dinner table, or I'd want those martini glasses!!! Fab!", Danielle, who said, "I adore Home Goods! Unfortunately the budget is so tight this year that there's no room for anything new in the decorating budget. I'd LOVE to get some new sparkly things for the holidays and to change out my old, drab color scheme! Thank you so much for the giveaway!", Tiffany, who said, "I LOVE LOVE LOVE HomeGoods!!!! I've got my eye on some seriously cute pillows that this would be great to use for. BUT I do love those plates and they have so many fun things.", and Cynthia, who said, "I love all the items shown above…ESPECIALLY all the gold and purple items. HomeGoods ROCKS!!" Once again congrats ladies!
As a follow up to PART 1 of the HomeGoods challenge featuring the Owl-themed Fall/Thanksgiving Table… here's a recap of some other fall entertaining trends and favorite finds discovered along the way during that same shopping trip. Some of these finds actually made it into the cart and are awaiting their debut at an upcoming party… like the cool wooden bowl displayed in the very top pic, which actually already made a holiday debut! :)
Hope you enjoy this little photo recap, complete with caption bubbles to help illustrate the "shopping in party mode" thought process a little better… and if you'd like to go shopping too, GOOD NEWS! HomeGoods is giving away $50 GIFT CARDS to FOUR lucky readers this week. (And the cool birdie jewelry holder/statue below was only $9.99, so $50 can go a long way!) See details on how to enter at the bottom of this post.
Have you ever eaten at one of The Palm Restaurants? We've been to the ones in San Diego and Las Vegas (Caesar's Palace) and the food is always AMAZING! So imagine my surprise when I first saw their collection of white dinnerware, white serveware and cooking tools lining the aisles at HomeGoods… super cool designs and great staples for entertaining! I've been coveting these particular plates for a while now:
Another party staple: pillar candle holders! Rarely do I use these for candles though… they more often get paired with a plate topper and serve as pedestals/risers for appetizers, mini desserts, party decor, and even picture frames. Such a great/affordable tool for adding height to whatever you need to prop up…
More of the cool wooden bowls discussed above. These are kind of surprisingly expensive in general, so the nearly 1/2 off prices at HomeGoods were a welcome change. I picked up a medium sized bowl this time, but love the one with the "basket handle" too… maybe next time!
A color palette I'm seeing all over the place these days… very popular for the holidays this year:
Love this cake server. That's all…
My shopping partner isn't as big of a "window shopping" fan as me yet…one day she'll get it. ;)
HOW TO ENTER the gift card giveaway:
• Post a comment below, mentioning something you'd like to shop for if you win OR one of your favorite pieces highlighted above.
• Giveaway ends Sunday, November 20th at midnight PST. The FOUR WINNERS will be chosen randomly and announced here after they've been notified via email and accepted the prize. Good luck!
P.S. HomeGoods recently opened a new store in Point Loma, San Diego! Now shopping for these great finds is even more convenient with 1 more location close by! If you live in the San Diego area this store is located in Loma Square where Rosecrans and Midway meet. Don't forget about the other fabulous locations in Poway and Encinitas too!

It is not our place as journalists to assert such notions as facts, especially as this debate intensifies.

Don't get me wrong, they're biased, but trust me, you guys are really trying to nail them on a technicality here (how the memo was worded).

Elected officials 'optimistic' on Route 15 bypass funding
April 4, 2013
SHAMOKIN DAM — After a variety of obstacles delayed its creation, it was announced Wednesday that the Central Susquehanna Valley Thruway could finally get the funding needed to make the project a......
We've been teased with this before....then the Philly or Pitts lawmakers steal the money for their cesspools.

"Both Everett and state Sen. E. Eugene Yaw, R-Loyalsock Township, said the project would have a positive effect on all of the economies in the area.
"As far as economic development, there would not be a bigger impact," Yaw said on the project.
Yaw also was intrigued by the number of jobs the project could create, saying it was "astounding" to think about.
And with more truck traffic in the area because of gas drilling, Mark Murawski, president of the Route 15 Coalition, said the project was needed. He called Wednesday's announcement the coalition's "finest hour."

"They forgot to mention the economic development of the losses to the businesses of Shamokin****when all the traffic will then go around them." - billybob
You need to travel, a "little"-bit-more.
There are NUMEROUS examples (nationwide) of smaller-towns evolving into walk-and-shop towns...like they were, long before the main-drag turned into a survival-challenge for pedestrians.
West, of here, from the Rockies...westward...they've BEEN going thru this transition, since the early-to-mid-'80s. Small cities (as-opposed-to small towns), long-ago started doing what's being done, here; turning upper-stories (of older buildings) into loft-style apartments.
People can say what they want, about the Mayor...but, he's OBVIOUSLY done some traveling, and SEEN what can be accomplished in this city, and...those OTHERS (of us), who'd done the same (i.e. "breached" the borders of our backyard, and lived other places) are saying "FINALLY!!!"

The negative aspect on business won't be that great, if at all. People who will use the bypass will be those travelling Rt 15 south to Harrisburg and back. I doubt those people are now likely to think, "I need to buy a new Ford" or "I should stop at Target and look around" while they are sitting in traffic. Those businesses will be fine. It will less congested and less stressful to drive along that stretch of road which might actually encourage more people who have the intention of shopping to travel that road, once the through traffic is reduced.

This can't come soon enough. I got caught in the detour on March 22 due to the fire on Route 15. It was miserable.
I don't believe a bypass will impact the businesses much if at all. Some people traveling North and South on 15 are simply trying to get from Point A to Point B. Others purposely go to the area to shop. If anything, it will make it easier for shoppers to get in and out.
Once a bypass is built, if they have to detour traffic from the bypass, it will just have to go back on old Route 15 instead of a 2 lane cowpath road with multi-mile backups.

Roads, Road Congestion, and the like are all things I've felt for quite some time needed major improvement, $558M is a lot of money, but as long as they do it right the first time, I haven't got a problem with this, things of this nature are long overdue.

Sorry, with the Marcellus Shale, our area is now a larger source of revenue for transit projects.

Unused Medication Collection
Inland Hospital participates in the annual Unused Medication Collection and Household Hazardous Waste Drop-Off hosted by the Kennebec Valley Council of Governments (KVCOG). Local residents are encouraged to drop off any unwanted medications and other hazardous household waste for proper disposal to help keep toxic chemicals out of our environment and drinking water supply and also out of homes where they can lead to accidental poisoning or abuse. KVCOG and participating towns also process and dispose of items such as old oil based paint, gas, motor oil, pesticides, cleaners, pool chemicals and other difficult to get rid of materials that could potentially harm people and pets.
For more information on the next drop off event, please contact your town office, public works department, or Ross Nason at KVCOG, 453-4258, ext. 24.

This quick video shows improved chip control using the Y-axis Control toolholders.
Better chip control on Swiss-type lathes, for one. The "Y" I'm talking about is the Y-axis/gang-tool-slide motion these machines use primarily to bring a different tool into position for a different turning operation. Once the new tool is positioned, the X axis moves it straight down into the top of the barstock to perform the operation.
That's how it works using conventional tools, anyway. However, depending on the workpiece material, chip control can be an issue with this traditional approach. This spurred NTK Cutting Tools to develop its Y-Axis Control toolholder. Instead of approaching the barstock from the top, it takes advantage of the Swiss-type's Y-axis motion to approach and engage the barstock from the side. Aided by gravity, the downward-facing chipbreaker on the tool's insert directs chips down and away from the cutting zone. This helps prevent "bird nesting" around the workpiece during front turning, back turning and grooving operations. Plus, the tool's rigid design is said to minimize vibration to ensure precise machining operations and quality surface finishes.
Although the company admits the Y-Axis Control tools look chunky (that's the company's word, not mine), each occupies only one slot on a gang tool slide. Because of their bulkier design, though, only one or two tools can be installed on the slide, and a pair of them can't be located side-by-side. Barstock size can vary depending on the tool's position on the slide as well as the difference in overhang from a conventional X-axis tool (Y-Axis Control tools are slightly longer). The tools accept 35- and 55-degree ISO inserts.

Hi Aneesh!
I touched base … Sanjiv Ahuja and he expressed an interest in meeting with you.… He is going to be in DC next week for a fundraising dinner with the President.
You may recall that you met with Sanjiv Ahuja about a year ago, with Phil Falcone … as Phil & Sanjiv were finalizing their plans for a new wireless broadband network…. Sanjiv will be at a fund-raiser dinner with the President on September 30 and would like to visit with you … and Aneesh Chopra…

Well, that was then, and THIS is now:
Barack Obama is looking for a few good fights.
Obama, the same president who campaigned twice on breaking the cycle of conflict in Washington, sees the utility � even the necessity � of rattling Republican cages as he plunges into a succession of upcoming battles over the nomination of Chuck Hagel as secretary of defense, the debt ceiling, $1 trillion in automatic budget cuts, immigration reform and gun control.

Covering the bases
LEADING OFF: The Curve managed only three hits Monday but made the most of them in scoring two runs to beat Akron. They manufactured a run in the first as 3B Andy Vasquez singled, took second on a sacrifice bunt by CF Mel Rojas and third on a throwing error before scoring on an infield single by 1B Matt Curry. RF Alex Dickerson collected the only other hit of the night with a homer in the seventh.
SAFE AT FIRST: RHP Jeff Inman got out of a bases-loaded jam in the eighth to protect the 2-0 lead and finished it off in the ninth for his second save.
STEALING SECOND: Akron RHP Brett Brach (1-2) took the tough-luck loss despite allowing just one run on two hits with five strikeouts and no walks in six innings.
ROUNDING THIRD: There's a great video making the rounds online of former Curve RHP Bryan Bullington pitching in Japan. Bullington had just started his windup when the batter tried to call timeout, so Bullington, clearly angered by it, continued his delivery and fired a fastball high and tight that nearly hit the batter. Google "Bryan Bullington Deadspin" and it will take you to a link with the video.
HEADING HOME: The Curve paid tribute to the cult classic comedy "Office Space" Monday night, with numerous references to the 1999 movie. Video clips of the film were shown throughout the game, along with on-field games that included references to TPS reports, a "jump to conclusions mat" and the famous Swingline red stapler.

Authorities arrested two men on weapons charges during a search of a West Side residence.
Buffalo police were assisting U.S. marshals Friday afternoon in the search for an illegal immigrant in an apartment in the 200 block of Niagara Street, according to police reports.
The search turned up two SKS assault rifles with ammunition, as well as three .357 Smith & Wesson revolvers, police said.
Charged with criminal possession of a weapon were Jose Andujar, 35, and William D. Padilla, 53.

In the days before the Internet, teenagers had basically two options to learn the ins and outs of boning. They amounted to either A) scrambled cable softcore, which was like watching two swarms of bees fighting in a motel room made of non-Euclidean geometry, or B) chancing upon a drifter's cache of Juggs secreted away in the woods behind the neighborhood liquor store.
After the USSR fell, the West briefly replaced Santa with Magda The Six-Bosomed Solstice Witch as a show of good faith.
Nowadays, young folks don't have to hazard a vagrant named "Clawhammer Jack" double-fisting bottles of cooking sherry to learn coital choreography. (Spoiled rotten, they are.) No, they can just turn to Wikipedia, that website known throughout the land for drowning the Encyclopedia Britannica factory in unwanted knowledge and tears.
Despite being one of the most visited sites on the Internet, Wikipedia is jam-packed with marvelously janky doodles of dead-eyed humans doing it. And most aren't hidden in the exile zones of Wikimedia Commons. No, most of these pictures accompany articles linked at the bottom of the Wikipedia page for "Sex," which happens to be one of Wikipedia's Top 10 pages.
Many of these illustrations are goddamn hilarious, as they use a sterile art style reminiscent of airline safety pamphlets. It's like everybody survived a plane crash and celebrated with an orgy. Take this picture below, which adorns a bunch of international Wiki entries for "prostitute." This guy clearly stole a first responder's car and tore ass to the nearest "abandoned warehouse" district.

"When I found out my seat cushion doubled as a flotation device, boy howdy, was I hard as a rock!"
I won't deny that there's educational value in knowing the exact mechanics of the ol' gamete rodeo. Given the dismal state of public library funding, a curious cardholder looking for the Kama Sutra inevitably must make due with half a dog-eared copy of Moby-Dick that smells like KOOLs. (Without these Wikipedia pages, we'd likely see a massive uptick in indecent exposure arrests on whale-watching tours.)
But I will say that -- with many of these drawings -- it's unclear where pedagogy ends and "the artist was obviously wanking the whole time" begins. Well, one guy alone drew dozens of them (link NSFW). If you're a Madison Avenue type who needs public domain bukkake clip art to advertise your client's shoehorn, now you know where to go.

"Thank you for fulfilling my dream of living as a bassoon for a day."
Without further ado, here's the most brain-melting Wikipedia art of people in flagrante delicto. Again, these are easily accessible pictures from one of the most popular websites on the planet. As of press time, all of them were top images, unless otherwise specified. (Images have been censored for those working readers whose HR reps don't have an anilingus policy on the books).
#6. The Most Placid Fisting Ever
From The Wikipedia Page For: "Fisting"
Look at that lady's face. I'm sorry, nobody in the history of fisting -- whether fistee or fister -- has ever made that damn face. That's a beatific expression reserved for occasions like "a new delivery of wainscoting" or "a perfectly seasoned shepherd's pie" or "the third consecutive 67-degree day this week" -- not "becoming your own human hand puppet." This picture belongs on the album cover for Pure Moods for Fisting. (Also, what's up with the blue background? It's like a lazy day in the Fortress of Solitude.)
#5. Liza Minnelli, Turning into a Werewolf?
From The Wikipedia Page For: "Cum Shot"
Good gravy, that is some eyes of Dr. T.J. Eckleburg shit right there. Anyhow, there was no way we could run this picture unedited, but I also needed to convey how absolutely ghastly her overall facial expression is. The closest approximation I could find was Jaws' mouth flipped upside down. MS Paint, to the rescue.
#4. Whatever the Heck This Is
From The Wikipedia Page For: "Gonzo Pornography"
This picture is supposed to represent "point-of-view pornography," not "the miniature angel and devil that sit on characters' shoulders in Looney Tunes cartoons, blowing each other."
Also, I'm writing this particular entry in a coffee shop, so I really can't look at the above picture and let it inspire another rib-tickling turn of phrase. All I can really say is, uh, "Those kids really got moxie."

Sammy Hagar joked with the crowd. James Hetfield got real. Billie Joe Armstrong and Pat Monahan had everyone singing along.
The stars charmed in very different ways during the first annual Acoustic-4-A-Cure benefit concert on Thursday at the Fillmore. Yet, they all added something to the equation, resulting in a very enjoyable evening of music.
It's was Hagar's brainchild. The Bay Area's famed Red Rocker, who was enshrined into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Van Halen in 2007, was looking for a way to support the Pediatric Cancer Program at UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital.
So, he decided to do what he does best -- have some fun. He called up a few of his talented friends, enlisting Metallica's Hetfield first in the cause, and organized a big ol' party at San Francisco's most legendary rock hall.
The mood was joyous, with the smiles onstage reflected back from the capacity crowd. The vibe was very informal and relaxed, so unlike some all-star gatherings. It did indeed feel like a party, although one that was about so much more than just music.
In all, it was a terrific start to what could grow to become a Bay Area institution over the years.
It was also one of the season's hottest tickets. One look at the lineup and you can figure out why. Besides Hagar and Hetfield, the bill also featured Green Day's Armstrong, Train's Monahan, guitar wizard Joe Satriani, Heart's Nancy Wilson and other artists.
It was Hagar's party, which meant he could've demanded to go on last. Instead, he said he decided to organize the sets by "age before beauty."
"I go on first," he said.
He'd kick off the two-hour show with a four-song set that included such nuggets as "Red Voodoo" and "Dreams." Now, singing isn't really this singer's strong suit, yet he was still fun to watch onstage, joking with the crowd and coming across like someone you'd want to invite to your next barbecue.
Following Hagar, Wilson took the stage and delivered her own short set. She's better known for her guitar work than her singing -- and for good reason -- so it made sense that she'd call upon some other voices to help her out. Notably, Lauren Larson, lead singer of the Texas rock trio Ume, joined Wilson for a solid version of Neil Young's "Hey Hey, My My (Into the Black)."
Monahan then turned things up a notch, delighting the crowd with singalong renditions of the Train smashes "Drops of Jupiter (Tell Me)," "Hey, Soul Sister" and "Drive By." He was joined by Hagar for a tuneful rendition of "Ramble On," the Led Zeppelin classic that has long been a part of Train shows.
The highlight of the concert was Hetfield's set, which was equally poignant and powerful. As the frontman for the world's greatest metal band, Hetfield might seem like an unlikely candidate to go acoustic. Yet, he proved entirely capable and comfortable in the setting, thrilling with Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters" and a cover of the Beatles' "In My Life." He gave us a peak into his personal world, describing how the death of his parents from cancer inspired the touching Metallica number "Until It Sleeps."
Hetfield then invited Armstrong out on stage for what would be the evening's definitive moment. The former began playing a chilling version of Bob Seger's "Turn the Page," which Armstrong took and transitioned into Green Day's "Boulevard of Broken Dreams." They'd continue to trade verses -- going back and forth between the two songs -- while Satriani accompanied them on guitar. It was the type of magical medley that fans dream of getting — but so rarely do — at these kinds of all-star concerts.
Armstrong then closed the main set by performing a fan-friendly mix of Green Day favorites as well as a superb cover of The Replacements' "Bastards of Young." The show closed in fine fashion with, of course, an all-star jam, bringing the entire cast of players out to the stage for a fun run through Bob Dylan's "Rainy Day Women #12 & 35."

The city of Elkins owns several pieces of real property that are getting little use at the present time. These include the former City Garage on 11th Street, the gravel lot facing the railyard developments behind City Hall, and the sludge pond for the former Reidboard garment factory. With the completion of the new water plant, the old water plant on Barron Avenue also will be vacant and unused.
At its regular meeting on March 1, Elkins City Council directed the Municipal Property Committee chaired by Councilwoman Nanci Bross-Fregonara, 4th Ward, with members Councilman Bob Woolwine, 1st Ward, and Jim Bibey, 5th Ward, to begin reviewing the better utilization of unused city properties. Included within the parameters of that directive are the possible sale or other reuse of those properties.
The city's ownership of real estate that is used for only marginal purposes or not at all is counterproductive and costly. Because of the way the state's municipal tax system is set up, such holdings penalize a number of entities when left unused.
According to state law, if a property is held by any level of government, it is removed from the property tax rolls. As a result, the city loses any tax revenue that might accrue if the property were privately owned. Because of the tax exemption, both the Randolph County Board of Education and the Randolph County Commission also lose revenue. In addition, if the property is such that it has economic development potential, any jobs that could be created by placing the property under private ownership are lost also.
A further spin-off is that any business that would be located on the property would be subject to Business and Occupation tax as well as the 2 percent utility tax. Both of these are given up as long as the property remains owned by the public weal. Additionally the state foregoes any potential income tax from the property.
Failure to develop these properties may mean - because of the shortage of developable land in our state - that the project does not take place at all or it is located in another area. Some of the land the city holds is prime commercial property and should be made available for such development. Holding on to this property for whatever reason is simply adding another impediment to our economic development efforts. These properties are largely flat, located in prime locations, and provided with all utilities and transportation access.
Some citizens have argued that the city should hold on to these properties in case they are needed at some future time. Certainly at some point in time the city will need additional property, but the nature and location of such land is completely unknown at the present time. In light of the rapidly changing technological, transportation and communication patterns of our time, the type of property that will be needed is impossible to ascertain in the present.
An effort to efficiently and effectively acquire property that would meet the needs of some unknown future requirement is sheer speculation. The purpose of the municipality is not land speculation. That is something better left to the private sector where individuals knowledgeable in the art have had years of practice in second guessing what might be needed at some future time.
Rather, as property becomes available or is underutilized, the city should have it appraised and put up for public sale. If it is thought some restrictions for a particular property may enhance the neighborhood or make the property more desirable, then covenants for that purpose can be incorporated into the sale.
Failure of the city to rapidly and effectively dispose of underutilized property not only hurts the citizens through loss of taxes and economic development opportunities, it also harms the school system and the activities funded by the county commission. In addition, to the extent that jobs could be created through optimal use of the property, continuing to hold on to such pieces of real estate deprives individuals from potential jobs and other economic development functions which are so necessary for a thriving economy.

Squaw Valley Resorts is proposing a project on a 100-acre portion of the 4,700-acre Squaw Valley General Plan area. The Specific Plan for the development proposes to amend the General Plan to develop a
The four-phase development would be built over 12 to 15 years. The first phase would include approximately 25 acres and almost 1 million square feet of development.
Planning staff made the presentation and responded to Supervisor questions. The project developer also responded to Board questions.
"This will be a very closely watched proposal as it could have substantial impacts—positive or negative-- on water, traffic, air and other quality of life issues for Olympic Valley residents and businesses in the Eastern end of Placer County", said Chairwoman Jennifer Montgomery, whose Fifth District includes Squaw Valley. "Placer County is committed to a full, robust, open and transparent process that will include the voices and input of all affected stakeholders in the region."
Members of the public also commented on the project and voiced their concerns over several aspects of the project, including its size, building height, water, effect on the valley and Squaw Creek and the Squaw Valley community.
There will be numerous opportunities for public comment, including when the proposed project is presented to the Squaw Valley Municipal Advisory Council, as well as having a hearing before the Planning Commission and then coming back to the Board. There will also be opportunities for public comment on the environmental documentation process.

A good little girl, but without a gun
May 21, 2013 - Harry Eagar
So much for the idea that keeping your home full of guns will allow you to cope with a bad man -- 2 bad men, in this case -- with a shotgun and a pistol.
From the sheriff's sergeant said:
:"The shooter outside the window was literally two or three feet away, maximum, from this girl," said Sacramento County Sheriff's Sgt. Jason Ramos. "And pumped four rounds in a very tight group." In a 4-year-old girl. Outside the window, firing by the light of the TV. So, no chance for mamma to grab the ol' hogleg and shoot back.
The neighbor said:
"In my day, there used to be some standards," Larry Ellis, a neighbor of the Campos family told the Bee. "You didn't go mess with someone's family." Yeah, but that was before gun-olatry was amped up by a multimillion-dollar disinformation lobby and a million-man army of delusional gun nuts.

That's some very high cost protection, and, thing is, the people who pay the bill are (frequently) not the people who think they are getting protected.
'Think' is the operative word here. I read Alphecca. The evidence that going armed is really protective is thin, thin, thin.

You are so fortunate to be an excellent wordsmith, but most of the time you can not help yourself when you take the stance that your beliefs,values, and judgements are the Holy Grail. I can only be thankful that everyone does not agree with you.Life would be such a bore.
May-22-13 3:14 PM
Harry, your continued (left wing agenda) rant about guns is protected under your 1st amendment and thank god my 2nd amendment right allows me to have a gun to protect my family and property.

I wanted to love this so much
Review By:Ale on 1/8/2016
I bought the product solely because I had gotten the non-spf version in a Birchbox prior to buying it. I bought the 30spf, because I don't wear moisturizer with an spf rating. After about a week of use my face is dry and flaking in spots my face is normally never dry. My skin is sensitive but for the most part stays clear. This specific product has caused lots of over drying and acne to pop up now. I hate that I don't like this product but I will be switching back to the old product I used before purchasing this one.
Review By:Rachel on 12/11/2015
I was really excited to try this moisturizer but was disappointed after the first use. I decided to give it a few more tries but I'm still not really happy. It feels heavier than I would like, makes my skin look dry and flakey and it doesn't do as nice of a job and my other natural moisturizer. It takes a while to rub in but that's not terrible, just a bit sticky.
Great daily sunscreen!
Review By:Diane on 9/25/2015
I received this with a number of other sunscreen moisturizers from Environmental Working Group and love it! I had been searching for a safe, effective sunscreen to wear under makeup and this is it! It has a mild scent, rubs in well and protects my skin from the sun. Great product!
Good Moisturizer
Review By:gab on 6/29/2015
It's been a little difficult to find a good clean face cream with SPF 30 so I was glad that I found this one from Juice Beauty. The moisturizer goes on thick and there is a white cast, but when I rub it into my skin, the cast disappears. My makeup applies over this nicely and the moisturizer does not seem to break me out. The smell of the product reminds me of ginseng. My husband likes using the moisturizer as well. Although it's thick, he puts the moisturizer on while his face is still damp which makes it easier to apply.
Keep me clear!
Review By:Ellie on 6/15/2015
I tried this last year and haven't looked back. It Keeps my skin protected and looking fantastic! Can not be without it!
Protected without the chemicals...
Review By:Rachel on 6/12/2015
Thank you Juice Beauty for formulating this wonderful sunscreen. I love knowing that I am not putting harmful chemicals on my skin as what goes on the skin goes into the body ultimately. It's my go to moisturizer/sunscreen every morning when I step out the shower. I feel confident that I am protecting my fair skin and doing so organically. Thank you again Juice Beauty!!!
Review By:Kristen on 6/12/2015
When I first used this product I was a little worried because it felt sick and was pretty white when I put it on my face, but after it absorbed completely, my skin felt smooth and glowing. I have combination skin and along with being pregnant- it's a different kind of combination right now! This moisturizer leaves my skin hydrated and healthy and it feels good knowing it's completely safe and great for my skin!
My Daily Routine
Review By:Sara on 6/11/2015
The Oil Free SPF 30 Moisturizer is the first thing I put on when I step out of the shower. I had been looking for a moisturizer without all of the bad sunscreen chemicals that also felt good under my make-up, and this is it. It goes on fairly white, until the zinc oxide absorbs, but ends up blending in nicely. I love knowing that I have sun protection without oxybenzone and all of the other junk. We keep this moisturizer all over the house- my husband even uses it now too!
Review By:Lissa on 6/11/2015
This is now part of my year-round daily routine. I was skeptical at first, because it initially goes on a little white, but massage in a little and you get dewy, all-natural protection. I'm a bit on the sensitive and oily side, and have been shocked at how well my skin does with this product! No breakouts. Smells great. Feels great. I've tried other sunscreens for my face and keep coming back to Juice Beauty.
Love This Product!
Review By:Judy on 6/11/2015
I've been using this product for about 2 years. After a trip to my dermatologist because of some skin problems, he said I need a daily SPF-30 moisturizer, instead of the SPF-15 I'd been using. I tried other products prior to this one, but all left my face feeling greasy and would break out. I started researching online for more natural products, and found Juice Beauty products. This has been the perfect product for me. Blends in smoothly, doesn't feel greasy, and makes my skin feel "good". I use it every day. I now get compliments on my skin, and I am 58 years old!
Review By:Jami on 6/10/2015
I wear this daily under my makeup. I live on a farm, so I'm outside quite a bit and I never have to worry about my face burning. It moisturizes really good without leaving my face like an oil pit. Two Thumbs up....Way Up!!!
Review By:Stephanie on 5/29/2015
I purchased the SPF version because I am in love with the non-SPF version of this moisturizer. I have to say that I am very disappointed as my cheeks and chin have now broken out into these small bumps. I wish I would have read the reviews regarding the skin clogging ingredients such as the algae prior to purchase. If you have sensitive/acne prone skin be careful with this product.
Not particularly moisturizing
Review By:Bunny on 5/21/2015
I was really excited to get this product, but was surprised to find that the texture is actually thick and somewhat cakey, leaving whitish streaks when I put it on. The smell is...not pleasant for me. And it did nothing for the dry areas on my face. In fact, it highlighted the areas that were somewhat flaky. It also left a white "ghost-haze" on my face after applying. I guess that's the price of using physical sunscreen vs. chemical... Fortunately, the white cast seemed to fade over the course of the day. So did the smell.
Great for acne-prone skin
Review By:Lori on 2/12/2015
I am 44 years old with acne-prone, sensitive skin. I searched for a long time to find an oil-free AND silicone-free product, and this was (possibly) the only one I found. It's amazing! The scent is fresh and clean by disappates quickly. The sunscreen goes on white'ish but sinks into my skin quickly, and makes a good primer for my mineral makeup. I'm on my third or fourth tune of this, and I cannot see me ever leaving for another sunscreen. I've worn it swimming in the summer and skiing in Colorado without getting a sunburn. Love this!
I cannot believe this is oil free.
Review By:yoonah on 1/19/2015
I usually use suncream for my face before I make up...but when I rub it on my face, my face becomes oily...
Please Make a Bigger Size
Review By:Karen on 11/29/2014
I love this sunscreen because it doesn't make me break out on my body like most others do when I'm applying it daily. It also goes on smoothly and has no greasy feeling. My only reason for giving 4 stars is that I wish it came in a larger size. It goes so quickly and gets very expensive.
Mini Vacay
Review By:Roxanne B on 9/18/2014
I keep this moisturizer in my travel kit and use it whenever I go out of town. It feels great on my skin and is gentle to it as well.
Blemish Free
Review By:Katherine on 9/12/2014
I am 55 years old and have tried everything in the book to achieve a clear complexion. Since I have been using Juice Beauty Blemish clearing products I have found my skin significantly clearing up with no dryness or flaking leaving smooth clear and glowing skin. I highly recommend these products! Thank You Juice Beauty:)
Review By:Amy on 9/11/2014
Every time I use this product, I breakout and my pimples then leave behind marks and possible scars. I have combination dry skin and I got this thinking that it will be organic and non-comedogenic. This causes acne and I would not recommend it for oily or combination skin. It causes me to break out under my chin and between the nose and lip. As soon as I stop using it the acne goes away. It works well on the body, but really too expensive as a body lotion.
Great sunscreen
Review By:Aimee on 9/9/2014
So nice to find an oil-free SPF that works and doesn't make my sensitive skin break out. Love it!
I love this product!
Review By:Georgie Cunningham on 9/9/2014
Finally a moisturizer and sun screen for oily skin. I've never used a product that works as well.
Love this product!
Review By:MFINNZ on 9/8/2014
This is the perfect facial moisturizer. It was exactly what I was looking for. My skin was filled with breakouts before using this product. I didn't expect such great results. My skin cleared right up after only days. I will definitely repurchase this item.
Organic SPF 30 oil free moisturizer
Review By:Margret on 9/8/2014
Fantastic! As an active outdoors woman in Sunny So. Florida, I am outside and in the sun a lot. I love this moisturizer because it has both the SPF factor and oil-free base that my skin requires. It also has a thick consistency which takes a while to rub in so I know that some sweat or wind is not going to wash it away! Some moisturizers are so thin and runny I wonder if they work and sure enough after a set of tennis or two, my face is burnt. Not with this moisturizer, it keeps my skin protected.
Great Moisturizer!
Review By:CHI on 9/8/2014
This moisturizer blends in easily and smells great too!
Finally found what I was looking for!
Review By:Melinda on 9/8/2014
I have been looking for skincare products that work, and are safe during pregnancy. I definitely found it with Juice beauty! I started with the line by trying the Oil Free SPF 30 moisturizer. Not only do I love the fact that it has SPF in it, combined with the organic treatment oil it goes on smoothly and gives my skin the perfect amount of moisture. I do recommend using it with the oil, because it spreads easily and you use a little less. So far, even though my hormones are crazy, I have had nothing but clear soft skin. I LOVE Juice beauty and will definitely continue using it as a safe and natural skincare regime even after pregnancy.
Love it
Review By:Joanna on 9/8/2014
This is one of the best organic moisturizers with SPF out there. It does it job plus gives my skin a nice glow. It actually makes my skin look better instead of pasty and white. It absorbs well, unlike some organic SPF's. It has such a nice sheen that sometimes I want to wear it at night just to have the same lovely glow!
Review By:Allyson on 9/3/2014
I am so disappointed in this moisturizer! I am an advocate for organic, and "natural" products, as well as, a sufferer of adult acne. I was very excited to try this Juice Beauty moisturizer which claims to be safe, and friendly for acne prone skin. I used this product for two weeks, and started breaking out with the worst acne I've ever experienced (red, swollen, "cystic- type" zits). I researched the ingredients because I did not want to believe this moisturizer was the cause, even though I had not changed any other product I was using. It turns out that Algae Extract is highly comedogenic (ranks a 5 on a scale from 1-5). I also found that caprylic triglycerides can be very irritating to some people's skin as well. And it seems the jury is still out as to whether this ingredient is considered "comedogenic". So, I stopped using this moisturizer and have not had another bad breakout since.
great sunscreen
Review By:Velvetfairy on 5/29/2014
Wow. I've been searching for the perfect sunscreen for my oily/combination skin for years, and I think I found it. I love it. It blends well, it doesn't make my face look too white, and it's a high percentage of zinc. Thank you Juice Beauty.
Not so great
Review By:Katie on 5/6/2014
I've been using the Oil-Free Moisturizer for over a year now and love it. I decided to try this as I prefer something with sun protection in it. I have to say I've not been a fan. This one causes me to break out (the non-SPF version does not) and does not seem to moisturize as well. As a side note, it is also tinted.
Not what I expected
Review By:Emily on 5/1/2014
I thought I would give this product a try because I LOVE all of the juice beauty stuff I have tried and could use the extra SPF, however I was expecting a moisturizer that was about the same consistency of the oil free moisturizer (no SPF) I was unpleasantly surprised to find that this product is quite thick and heavy. I have oily skin with lots of blemishes and this certainly did not help. I think it would work for dry skin, but if you don't, I wouldn't suggest. Like I said I love the other products in the rest of the line so if you are looking for a lighter moisturizer go for the oil free one without SPF.
Best Sunscreen Ever!
Review By:Jennifer on 4/5/2014
This moisturizer makes my (36 year old with fine lines) skin look plumper and radiant, all without causing any breakouts or congestion, which I am very prone too. It actually seemed to heal blemishes I had when I started using it! Also wears well under mineral makeup but now I hardly need it. Very protective 20% zinc oxide somehow blends in within a few seconds. LOVE IT!
Good oil free sunscreen
Review By:kc on 2/9/2014
I would have given it 5 stars, but the smell is too strong. Can you make an unscented version?
No Chemicals & perfect for kids and adults!
Review By:Susan on 1/30/2014
Living in sunny Florida it is very important to use sun protection year round. I have to be careful what I use for sun protection because many products are heavy and cause me to break out. This product offers me protection from the sun without look and feeling greasy or causing breakouts. My daughter has sensitive skin and I use thios on her. I keep a tube in the beach bag.
Pretty great
Review By:Karen on 1/27/2014
I've been using this for a couple months (although it's winter, so not really sure how effective it is in full bright summer sunlight). It goes on kind of thick and white, and it takes a minute to blend into my skin, but once it sinks in, it feels pretty great. My nose gets a tiny bit oily later in the day, but it's much less greasy than other sunscreens.
Love this!
Review By:Ktr on 1/22/2014
This product works beautifully! No break outs, no harmful chemicals.
Does the job!
Review By:Katie on 1/22/2014
I've been looking for an all natural oil free moisturizer with SPF 30 or higher for quite some time. I can't tell you how happy I am to have not only found one, but to have found one that works very well! I break out very easily, and I have not had any issues with this product. It absorbs quickly and is not whatsoever greasy. Great product! Thank you Juice Beauty! I no longer have to rely on other SPF products laden with toxic chemicals.
Great for kids and myself!
Review By:T on 1/22/2014
I had been using the SPF tinted moisturizer but found that it is too greasy for me...so I switched to this one. So glad I did! And it is great for the kids on sunny school days, then I know they will be protected while out at recess!
Can't wait for summer!
Review By:Liz on 1/20/2014
I can't wait to try this product in the Alabama summer heat! Most natural moisturizers leave my face oily and my hairline stringy, but not this one. Great product, mild tint with no whitening, all natural and organic. Thanks Juice Beauty for this awesome product and EWG for sending me this way!
THE Sunscreen for Northeast fall and winter
Review By:Melissa on 1/15/2014
I switched to this super non-chemical sunscreen as we started getting cooler weather in October. It feeds and soothes my skin like no other! This is an incredible product and I use less and less foundation because my skin glows. Thank you!!!
Healthy skincare
Review By:Diana on 1/12/2014
I bought this because I wanted a safe, non-chemical sunscreen (and the Environmental Working Group rated it as safe). I love its light moisturizers, protection, and the way it smoothes my skin. I use it every day. It's a regular on my must-buy list.
Holy Grail SPF
Review By:Caroline on 1/12/2014
This is my Holy Grail SPF Moisturizer. It is very hydrating, non-whitening, and smells like Fruit Loops (in a very good way). I always have this on hand.
Chemical free sunscreen :)
Review By:Sophie on 1/12/2014
I love the fact that its active ingredient is Zinc Oxide, organic and chemical free :) it leaves my skin soft and oil-free, the only thing I really dislike about this product is the smell, it's a strong herb/plant smell, I guess some people wouldn't mind. Once I applied it I couldn't detect the smell, it's just the smell so I'm going to continue to use this product.
I love it !
Review By:xiaorui on 1/12/2014
I love it, it is wet, not greasy, very relaxed and sunscreen.It is better than I used sunscreen.Have been in love with it, already can not do without it !
Terrific SPF for Northeast Winters!
Review By:Melissa on 1/11/2014
I switched to this SPF when the weather changed this fall and winter as it is a bit thicker in texture. A small amount goes a long way! It is very protective against the sun, wind, and cold and also rubs right in so my skin just looks like that, my skin:) I love it also because it has allowed me to wear no makeup when I desire. Healthier, softer, smoother, protected and lovely skin...thank you Juice Beauty!
Review By:Karla on 1/11/2014
Wonderful moisturizer for summer! Oil free and a great spf. I love it. It's a staple in the summer.
My only choice.
Review By:Virnen on 1/10/2014
Hands down, SPF 30 Oil-Free Moisturizer
SPF 30 Oil-Free Moisturizer hands down to this product, rescued my skin since it really does moisturize my sensitive skin. It is non-greasy so it's a big plus in my book. I get the help i need and continue to use this since I love and enjoy using it. Having a combination of dry & oily skin made me try many different products. Im glad to finally found an excellent moisturizer for me that worked good and takes care of my beauty concerns. Protection is very important to my skin so happy it got SPF 30 I know im protected from the harsh sun. Thanks Juice beauty!
It's Good, But Not Great.
Review By:Morgan on 1/10/2014
Since this has SPF, I noticed a bad combination with my CC cream that also has SPF so I felt a suffocation with using two SPF products. For some reason, besides previously stated, I prefer the moisturizer without SPF since I feel it hydrates my skin more than this one since this one is much more thick. I'll stick to the other moisturizer. It's good for those that don't wear any other products with SPF, or makeup in general, and want a moisturizer with added sun protection.
It's great
Review By:sheila on 1/10/2014
Tried various moisturizers and SPF and am glad this can do both jobs. It's lightweight and goes on easily and is there under my foundation all day. Hurrah for less chemicals and stuff I don't need or want!!!

Best Protection
Review By:Kirstin on 1/10/2014
I love this oil-free natural spf moisturizer. It's so light, smells delicious, and provides the protection I need, without the breakouts.
nice moisturizer
Review By:yuga on 8/22/2013
Good for my dry combination skin ! Love this one .
Review By:Helen on 6/1/2013
This is the only oil-free natural spf moisturizer I've used that doesn't irritate my skin or make me feel like I have a mask on. Skin gets a bit shiny through the day, but that can be easily fixed with an oil blotting tissue.
Review By:KK on 5/8/2013
I love this moisturizer!! Because it is oil free it looks great on my skin. My skin feels soft and it actually helps to cover blemishes. When i bought this product i also bought two different colors of the Tinted Moisturizers as well. The "ivory" didn't provide dark enough color on my skin. The "sand" fit my skin tone but for some reason made my skin too look to oily. So when i tried this product i was amazed! It actually has some color in it and even though it is a light color it provides the color/skin tone correcting that i wanted in the Tinted Moisturizer. With a product that moisturizes, provides SPF protection, gives me a little color and evens my skin tone is an all in one great product to me! Cheers to the SPF 30 Moisturizer!
