Will Use This a Lot!I acquired this to clean my deck. I was surprised at how soft the bristles are - I would have no problem using this on my car. That said, it was very effective at cleaning the grime off my deck and railings. Because it was so soft I had no worries that I was going to scratch anything, and because the unit itself is a soft rubber you don't have to worry about the base causing damage either. Only complaint is when I used this in conjunction with the pole it continuously loosened where they attached. It would be great if there was some type of locking mechanism so that you don't have to keep twisting it back to a secure position. In the future I can see myself using this on everything from my vinyl siding, to my car, to my garage floor and brick patio. More ▶RazorBoston, MA
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Great for Large SurfacesThis window cleaner was great for my French door glass. It took less than 3 minutes to clean both doors & the result was streakless. No touch-up was required. The scrubber side of this 14" squeegee has a removable pad with a 1/2" nap of synthetic fiber. This cleaned the glass better than any cloth or paper towel. It is held onto the wand by Velcro which makes it easily removable for cleaning. The squeegee side is rigid & does not flex which keeps the rubber blade flat on the glass. This produces no streaks requiring touch-up. Because of the width, the squeegee cleaning of the surface requires fewer passes reducing the cleaning time. This rigidity also makes it useless for curved surfaces such as auto windshields. For what is designed for, it is an excellent window cleaner. More ▶Bones252100Gibsonton, Fl

Sale, Sox Seek Series Win
Thursday, September 11, 2014
Today's News
This Afternoon's Game
White Sox vs. A's at U.S. Cellular Field (1:10 p.m., CT, CSN) as the Sox look to take three of four from Oakland. Starters: LHP Chris Sale (11-3, 2.09) for the Sox, LHP Scott Kazmir (14-7, 3.42) for the A's.
Sale leads the American League in ERA, SO/9.0 IP (10.63), ranks second in winning percentage (.789) and WHIP (0.94), third in opponents average (.204) and opponents OPS (.558), fourth in SO/BB ratio (5.72) and sixth in strikeouts (183). He is set to make his 24th start of the season, 15th at home and first against the Athletics.
In his last start, on September 5 at Cleveland, the Sox' All-Star lefty allowed one run on five hits while striking out five and walking only one over six innings, but didn't factor in the decision. He tossed five scoreless innings after allowing a first-inning run.
Sox Starting Lineup: Eaton CF, Sanchez 2B, Abreu 1B, A. Garcia RF, Gillaspie 3B, Viciedo DH, Taylor LF, Flowers C, Semien SS.
Plays of the Day
Down 1-0 to Jeff Samardzija and the A's through seven-and-a-half innings last night, the White Sox rallied and scored a pair of runs in the bottom of the eighth on an Avi Garcia two-out, bases-loaded single off of reliever Luke Gregerson and held on for the 2-1 victory (click on top link below)..rookie starter Chris Bassitt was outstanding in his second big-league start. He tossed six innings, allowing just one run, five hits and two walks while striking out five (click on bottom link below)…Eric Surkamp (1.0 IP), Zach Putnam (1.0) and Jake Petricka (1.0) blanked Oakland in relief of Bassitt. Putnam got credit for his fifth win and Petricka chalked up his 12th save.
Sox Notes of Note
The White Sox are 24-22 in games decided by one run…Sox starting pitchers own a 2.41 ERA over the last six games and all have been quality…Petricka recorded his fifth consecutive save. He owns a 1.76 ERA in 15 save opportunities…With two more hits last night, Adam Eaton is hitting .421 in his last 20 home games and batting .378 in his last 37 games overall…with his double last night, Jose Abreu hit safely in his 100th game this season. He leads the league with a .356 average since June 9…Garcia has 13 RBI in his last 13 games.
Remembering September 11, 2001
Thirteen years ago today, the White Sox were getting ready to begin a series with the Yankees in New York.
A Wish Come True
Seven-year-old Mason Earley had his Make-a-Wish granted to meet Abreu before last night's game. Add Sale, Eaton and Alexei Ramirez to the mix and it was quite a day for Mason. Sale gave the youngster his gloves and sunglasses and told him to "wear them proud."
A PK Tribute
Quote of the Day
Paulie on his injured hand and the prospect of him getting back in the lineup:
"I haven't done anything aggressive yet. I'll pick up a bat in two days and take some swings. If that feels good, we will move on from there. I'd like to get out there this weekend but if that doesn't work, I plan to get out there for the road trip."
Tomorrow's Schedule
White Sox vs. Twins at U.S. Cellular Field (7:10 p.m., CT, CSN) in the opener of a three-game weekend series. Starters: LHP Jose Quintana (7-10, 3.37) for the Sox, RHP Phil Hughes (15-9, 3.35) for Minnesota.
Photo of the Day
The Sox partnered with the USO of Illinois to serve lunch yesterday for members of the U.S. Armed Forces.

CHICAGO – It's 3am on Saturday night/Sunday morning on August 20th, and you're just not ready to quit. How about indulging in the 2016 "Abbie Hoffman Died for Our Sins" Theater Festival? The three-day theater marathon is in its 28th edition, and will be sponsored for the final time by the Mary-Arrchie Theatre Company, and hosted by the "Godfather of Storefront Theater," Rich Cotovsky. It all takes place at the Den Theatre, 1333 N. Milwaukee in Chicago (details below).

Social History is Revitalized in 'Free State of Jones'Submitted by PatrickMcD on June 24, 2016 - 12:57pm
Rating: 4.0/5.0
CHICAGO – The United States is still fighting the Civil War, which ended in 1865. The rebellious South has never completely given away its anger and sorrow for the changes the war has wrought on them. These larger themes are examined historically in the new film, "Free State of Jones."
'Concussion' Can't Quite Tackle its Difficult SubjectSubmitted by PatrickMcD on December 25, 2015 - 6:53am
Rating: 3.0/5.0
CHICAGO – "Concussion" suffers from what I call the "Moneyball" problem – it's got an interesting subject matter, but it doesn't seem to know what to do with it. It doesn't have enough faith in its own material or its audience, so it stocks up on a lot of off-the-shelf melodrama in effort to avoid digging into what makes the story interesting in the first place. It's also a movie that chickens out at the end and seems afraid to pick a fight.
'Jupiter Ascending' Might Cause Attention DescendingSubmitted by PatrickMcD on February 5, 2015 - 5:07pm
Rating: 2.0/5.0
CHICAGO – "Jupiter Ascending" is certainly one of the oddest and densest of sci-fi movies, this side of "Dune," and has some of the most laughable acting and dialogue seen in a major film in awhile. But the worst offense is that the film is dull, and practically without emotion or human empathy.
'Beyond the Lights' Has a Respect for StorytellingSubmitted by PatrickMcD on November 14, 2014 - 7:10pm
Rating: 3.5/5.0
CHICAGO – Writer/Director Gina Prince-Bythewood, the creator of the cult favorite "Love & Basketball," is back with another original story that she created, an intimate and romantic perspective on a singer on the path to nowhere, despite superstar-level fame. Gugu Mbatha-Raw stars as that singer in "Beyond the Lights."
Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts Seek to Repurpose 'Larry Crowne'Submitted by PatrickMcD on July 1, 2011 - 6:13am
Rating: 3.0/5.0
CHICAGO – Movie stars need certain types of films to keep their star power safe and audiences expect certain things from them, with limitations, to create summer movie comfort. Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts fill the bill in "Larry Crowne."

A lot of the wording and sentences seem to be too wordy. A lot of it seems like it can be combined to make smaller sentences and still get the point across. It also seems to be worded in strange ways sometimes, just changing the order could help a lot. I've done a bit to try and help but would like others to tell me what they think of this idea. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ryokosha Konoe (talk • contribs) 20:00, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Katy ISD Partners in Education Debuts "Good to Volunteer"
Katy ISD Partners in Education Debuts "Good to Volunteer"

Katy ISD's Partners in Education has debuted its 2016 video "Good to Volunteer," a cinematic reminder of how good (and fun) it is to volunteer at a school. The soundtrack is sung by Katy ISD graduate, parent and volunteer John Cordes, who also stars in the production. The video features the Katy ISD Volunteers in Public Schools Hallelujah Dancers who, along with recent Volunteers of the Year and the VIPS Executive Board, shared their skills at last May's Volunteer Celebration.

This past school year, Katy ISD achieved an unprecedented accomplishment as 1,018,981 volunteer hours were donated to students and staff. "Good to Volunteer" honors that ground-breaking year of service and also serves as a call to action as we welcome a new superintendent and open three new campuses.

Katy ISD Partners in Education creates school-support opportunities for parents, businesses and the community by offering a wide variety of options amenable to every schedule, talent and expertise. We bring volunteers into Katy ISD classrooms at each campus and all grade levels. To learn more, visit Partners in Education.

Katy ISD campuses will host tables for their mentors along with any community members who might be interested in becoming a mentor.

KEYS is a relationship, not a tutoring, program that matches a caring adult with a student on the brink of success. Mentors make a one-school-year commitment and meet with their students for up to one hour each week, on campus, during the school day, during the school year. KEYS survey results from the 2015-2016 school year showed that 88% of KEYS students increased grades, 80% decreased absences and 87% decreased discipline referrals.

Over its 20-year-history, thousands of mentors have changed the trajectory of their KEYS student's lives. As school starts this year, hundreds of Katy ISD students are waiting for a mentor of their own. If you have ever thought about becoming a mentor, or if you are already a KEYS mentor, please join us at the KEYS Kick Off. Click HERE to RSVP or click HERE to complete a KEYS mentor application. For more information please contact Martha Brown at 281.396.2468, or email@example.com.

Katy ISD Police Department Urges Drivers to Share the Road with Returning Students
Katy ISD Police Department Urges Drivers to Share the Road with Returning Students

With the start of the school year just around the corner, it's important for drivers to remember to slow down near school zones and pay attention when kids are present, especially before and after school.

The Katy ISD Police Department, in conjunction with area law enforcement, will be enforcing speed limits and other traffic codes in our school zones. We ask everyone to drive cautiously in the school zones, obey the crossing guards, and help us keep all students and parents safe.

Please be aware of the following regulations:

If You're Dropping Off

Don't double park; it blocks visibility for other children and vehicles

Don't load or unload children across the street from the school

Carpool to reduce the number of vehicles at the school

When Sharing the Road with Young Pedestrians

Don't block the crosswalk when stopped at a red light or waiting to make a turn, forcing pedestrians to go around you; this could put them in the path of moving traffic

In a school zone when flashers are blinking, stop and yield to pedestrians crossing the crosswalk or intersection

Always stop for a school patrol officer or crossing guard holding up a stop sign

Take extra care to look out for children in school zones, near playgrounds and parks, and in all residential areas

Don't honk or rev your engine to scare a pedestrian, even if you have the right of way

Never pass a vehicle stopped for pedestrians

Always use extreme caution to avoid striking pedestrians wherever they may be, no matter who has the right of way

When Sharing the Road with School Buses

Never pass a bus from behind – or from either direction if you're on an undivided road – if it is stopped to load or unload children

If the yellow or red lights are flashing and the stop arm is extended, traffic must stop

The area 10 feet around a school bus is the most dangerous for children; stop far enough back to allow them space to safely enter and exit the bus

Be alert; children often are unpredictable, and they tend to ignore hazards and take risks

When Sharing the Road with Bicyclists

When passing a bicyclist, proceed in the same direction slowly, and leave 3 feet between your car and the cyclist

When turning left and a bicyclist is approaching in the opposite direction, wait for the rider to pass

If you're turning right and a bicyclists is approaching from behind on the right, let the rider go through the intersection first, and always use your turn signals

Watch for bike riders turning in front of you without looking or signaling; children especially have a tendency to do this

Be extra vigilant in school zones and residential neighborhoods

Watch for bikes coming from driveways or behind parked cars

Check side mirrors before opening your door

By exercising a little extra care and caution, drivers and pedestrians can co-exist safely in school zones.

Sweet Gesture for Katy ISD Police Officers
Sweet Gesture for Katy ISD Police Officers

Primrose School students show appreciation with homemade lemonade

August 1, 2016 – As a gesture of support for law enforcement officers, students from the Primrose Schools of Katy came together to express their appreciation for Katy ISD Police Officers in a rather sweet way with freshly made thirst-quenching lemonade! Lemonade stands were set up at several of the Primrose Schools of Katy on July 15 to benefit the Katy ISD Police Department.

This week the students stopped by the Katy ISD Law Enforcement Center to present the department with a check in honor of their valiant work in the community. Officers were very touched by the gesture and took time out of their busy day to provide a tour of the police department and explained the core values of the department which are: Integrity First, Service Before Self, and Excellence in All.

Deputy Chief Robert Meier presented all of the students and teachers with an official Katy ISD challenge coin to thank them for their effort.

Local Cardiologist Sets Fundraising Goal for Katy ISD Education Foundation
Local Cardiologist Sets Fundraising Goal for Katy ISD Education Foundation

Dr. Randeep Suneja Pursuing Record-Setting $100,000 Raised for Teacher Grants

Cardiologist Dr. Randeep Suneja believes a quality, exceptional educational experience is the greatest gift the Katy community can give its children, and he's taking steps to support that effort. Inspired by his own teachers from elementary through medical school, Suneja is a passionate advocate of education. As a result, Suneja is using his participation in the annual Katy Half-Marathon to rally the Katy community in support of its teachers.

"As a 25 year resident of Katy and former Katy ISD parent, I have seen firsthand the quality of Katy ISD's educational system. I believe our community can enhance that system and significantly impact a tremendous number of students by providing resources for their teachers," declared Suneja.

Dr. Suneja is setting his sights high, establishing a record-setting $100,000 goal raised for the Katy ISD Education Foundation and its Inspiring Imagination teacher grants. Of the funds raised by Dr. Suneja's campaign, 75% will support STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) classroom projects and 25% will fund student health awareness initiatives. "I believe this is very important, "states Suneja.

 All Katy ISD teachers are invited annually to apply for Katy ISD Education Foundation grants. In its first four years, the Foundation has awarded more than $725,000 in Inspiring Imagination grants to teachers at campuses all over Katy ISD.  The Foundation exists to raise support for and manage the grant program, generating funding for innovative classroom experiences not possible within the parameters of a school district budget.

Raised in India, Dr. Suneja contributes his desire to become a cardiologist to all his teachers, but calls both his parents, "the greatest teachers of them all." This is his second year to raise funds for the Katy ISD Education Foundation. The Katy Half-Marathon is slated for February 4, 2017, the date Dr. Suneja's campaign will end.

Kate Weare Company - Bates Dance Festival
Robert Moses' Kin returns to Bates with "NEVABAWARLDAPECE," ("never be a world of peace") a full-company work of urgent, pulsing energy that explores critical moments of change in America's liberation movements, insurrections and revolts.

Kate Weare Company
Photo Credit: Keiera Chang
Kate Weare's dances explore intimacy, both tender and stark, by drawing on the body's power to speak with a clarity that transcends the spoken word. She decodes a language of movement that illuminates the shifting emotions influencing our relations. Weare returns to Bates with two new works. In Dark Lark, featuring a brilliant score by electro-acoustic cello virtuoso, Chris Lancaster, Weare honors the erotic imagination as a metaphor for creativity. In Marksman, which features an original score by Curtis Macdonald, Weare mines the magnetism and electrical connection between bodies that is emotionally resonant, imbuing Marksman with power, attraction, hierarchy, vulnerability and aloneness.

RAP and HIPHOP are pretty different. Lil Wayne just does what will sell. Tupac, for example, did it to bring out a message. Sadly, a lot of spoiled **** head children own Itunes accounts with their parents credit card, and just buy whatever the **** they're told to buy. its a ******* shame.

Now free for all, there's no excuse to fall for the latest WhatsApp hoax: WhatsApp is not ending at 6pm. Here are some of the WhatsApp scams you should delete and forget. You might also like: How to use Peach, the new Facebook rival that everyone is talking about
Whatsapp is not ending at 6pm
The latest WhatsApp scam to catch our attention goes as follows:
"tomorrow at 6 pm they are ending WhatsApp and you have to pay to open it, this is by law
This message is to inform all of our users, our servers have recently been very congested, so we are asking you to help us solve this problem. We require our active users to forward this message to each of the people in your contact list to confirm our active users using WhatsApp, if you do not send this message to all your contacts WhatsApp will then start to charge you. Your account will remain inactive with the consequence of losing all your contacts. Message from Jim Balsamic (CEO of Whatsapp ) we have had an over usage of user names on whatsapp Messenger. We are requesting all users to forward this message to their entire contact list. If you do not forward this message, we will take it as your account is invalid and it will be deleted within the next 48 hours. Please DO NOT ignore this message or whatsapp will no longer recognise your activation.
If you wish to re-activate your account after it has been deleted, a charge of 25.00 will be added to your monthly bill.
We are also aware of the issue involving the pictures updates not showing. We are working diligently at fixing this problem and it will be up and running as soon as possible. Thank you for your cooperation from the Whatsapp team"
WhatsApp is going to cost us money soon. The only way that it will stay free is if you are a frequent user i.e. you have at least 10 people you are chatting with. To become a frequent user send this message to 10 people who receive it (2 ticks) and your WhatsApp logo should turn blue"
This is absolutely not true, and under no circumstances should you fall for it. If you're still not convinced, just think about it: you are sending a message to everyone on your contact list to help solve congestion? WhatsApp is also based on phone numbers, not user names. We could go on...
WhatsApp Gold - WhatsApp Premium is a con
The latest WhatsApp hoax doing the rounds is an exclusive invitation to upgrade to a premium version of the app, called WhatsApp Gold. It's complete and utter rubbish: there is no WhatsApp Gold.
"The invitation reads: "Hey Finally Secret Whatsapp golden version has been leaked, This version is used only by big celebrities. Now we can use it too."
It claims to allow you to delete messages after you've sent them, and simultanously send 100 pictures, among other things. It sounds great, but it's entirely made up. Click on the link in the invitation and you're more likely to end up with a malware infection. (See how to remove a virus from Android if you've already done so.)
WhatsApp virus - how to avoid WhatsApp virus
The latest WhatsApp scam isn't delivered by WhatsApp itself but through your email app on your Android phone or iPhone. It tells you that you have missed a WhatsApp call or have a WhatsApp voice message, which you should click on the link in the email to access. Rather than your message, you get a virus downloaded to your device.
Please don't be fooled. WhatsApp will never contact you outside the WhatsApp app itself, so if you see this then do not click the link and delete the message.
WhatsApp chain message hoaxes - Is WhatsApp closing down?
One WhatsApp hoax that regularly does the rounds is that which asks you to forward the message to 10 people or the service will close down.
WhatsApp has millions of users, and it really won't notice you sending 10 messages through the service. It is not about to close down, and this is very much a hoax. Also see: WhatsApp ban: what you should know
Another variation suggests there are too many WhatsApp users, and it will close your account if you don't start using it.
The chain message reads: Message from Jim Balsamic (CEO of Whatsapp). We have had an over usage of user names on WhatsApp Messenger. We are requesting all users to forward this message to their entire contact list.
"If you do not forward this message, we will take it as your account is invalid and it will be deleted within the next 48 hours. Please DO NOT ignore this message or WhatsApp will no longer recognise your activation."
If you don't act in time, WhatsApp will apparently charge you £25 to reactivate your account, which will be added to your phone bill.
Except it won't, because WhatsApp is now a free service. As it says on its official blog: "WhatsApp will no longer charge subscription fees. For many years, we've asked some people to pay a fee for using WhatsApp after their first year. As we've grown, we've found that this approach hasn't worked well. Many WhatsApp users don't have a debit or credit card number and they worried they'd lose access to their friends and family after their first year. So over the next several weeks, we'll remove fees from the different versions of our app and WhatsApp will no longer charge you for our service."
WhatsApp chain message hoaxes - Is WhatsApp going to start charging inactive users?
By far the most popular WhatsApp hoax is that which suggests the service will start charging inactive users a certain amount per message, so by sending the message on to 10 users they can prove they are an active member and loyal to WhatsApp, and therefore deserving of its free service.
Really? Ask yourself how sending that message you don't pay for to 10 people could possibly keep open the company if it was that desperate for cash? If it were skint, it wouldn't have decided to ditch its subscription fees.
One variation of this message claims to come from the app's founder, "David D. Suretech". Never mind that Brian Acton and Jan Koum are the actual founders of WhatsApp.
It reads: "Hello, I. Am DAVID D. SURETECH founder of Whatsapp. this message is to inform all of our users that we have only 53million accounts available for new phones. Our servers have recently been very congested, so we asking for your help to solve this problem. We need our active users to forward this message to every single person in their contact list in order to confirm our active users that use WhatsApp. If you do not send this message to all your contacts to WhatsApp, then your account will remain inactive with the consequence of losing all your contacts. The automatic update symbol on your SmartPhone Will appear with the transmission of this message. Your smartphone will be updated within 24 hours, and will feature a new design; a new color for the chat and the icon will change from green to azul. Whatsapp will begin to charge unless you are a frequent user. If you have at least 10 contacts send this sms and the logo will become red on your platform to indicate that you are an active user. Tomorrow, we wil begin to take messages for whatsapp for 0.37 cents. Forward this message to more than 9 people in your contact list and the what's app logo on your will turn blue meaning that you have Become a free user for life."
And here's yet another ridiculous variation of the WhatsApp chain message hoax:
WhatsApp's response to all such scams is as follows: "Please understand that this is a hoax and there is no truth to it."

Plants Were Used for Food and Ritual in Prehistoric Israel
Thursday, January 23, 2014
wheat and barley grasses. Evidence of the grains was also found buried with the dead as part of what may have been an offering or a final meal.MT CARMEL, ISRAEL—Dani Nadel of the University of Haifa, Robert C. Power of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, and Arlene M. Rosen from the University of Texas, Austin, have studied the use of plants in Raqefet Cave by members of the Natufian culture some 13,000 years ago. Last summer, the research team announced their discovery of impressions left by salvia and other species of mint under human burials in the cave. Phytoliths from other locations in the cave, including impressions in the rock that may have been used to grind or pound cereals, include
Kennewick Man's roots, rise of the Wari Empire, turtle soup, hyenas vs. humans, and an ancient Chinese beer recipe

This product is an ultimate staple in my beauty routine. I've always been a little weird about removing my makeup as I have such sensitive skin, but this truly feels just like water. Since I've started using this cleanser (about four months now) I find my skin looking clearer and more refreshed looking. My Makeup comes right off with no need for scrubbing and has cut my mirror time before bed in half.
I bought this medium size because the large bottle was out of stock when I ordered, but I plan on replenishing with the big bottle as I never want to run out of such a fantastic product.

where can i get the shelves from in the third picture please?ReplyDeleteReplies
It should be fairly easy for a carpenter to custom make one for you. Or the budget option is getting shelves at IKEA and hang them on the wall! Best of luck!Delete
Hi, I had built the shelves with a carpenter, and now they are too heavy and we can't install them. Any tips? Best!ReplyDelete
Either have the carpenter remake them in a thinner mdf or, I know it's not the same look but you can buy some brackets for supportReplyDelete

Actress Penélope Cruz and director Pedro Almodóvar will work together in "Los Amantes Pasajeros" (The Brief Lovers)," the entertainment blog Deadline said.
Efe was unable to confirm the story with the actress's U.S. agents, nor did the director's representatives in Los Angeles reply to Efe's queries.
According to the blog, the winner of the Oscar for "Vicky Cristina Barcelona" has officially been cast for "The Counselor," the next project of British filmmaker Ridley Scott, and plans to shoot "Los Amantes Pasajeros" this summer in Madrid.
The film will be a humorous ensemble in line with Almodóvar's movies of the 1980s, though for now no plot details have been revealed.
The previous Cruz and Almodóvar productions were "Carne Tremula" (Live Flesh) in 1997, "Todo Sobre Mi Madre" (All About My Mother) in 1999, "Volver" (Return) in 2006 and "Los Abrazos Rotos" (Broken Embraces) in 2009.
In "The Counselor," both Cruz and husband Javier Bardem will be part of an all-star cast that includes Brad Pitt, Cameron Díaz and Michael Fassbender.
The screenplay for the project is the work of Cormac McCarthy, author of the like-named novel on which "No Country for Old Men" was based, a film for which Bardem won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor.
